TheLordOfTimeballoons, you awake yet?15:51
TheLordOfTimephillw, you too.15:51
balloonscan't speak for phillw15:51
balloonsbut I'm about15:52
TheLordOfTimeballoons, you need to read something, give me 3 seconds15:52
TheLordOfTimeballoons, https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-quality/2013-January/003000.html and related responses15:52
TheLordOfTime(and i betcha the IRCC would agree)16:15
balloonshowever, I appreciate om26er's efforts in raising awareness.. We do utilize this channel for other things besides bugs, and generally we're discussing and confirming bugs we find in dev releases if we do dicuss bugs16:15
TheLordOfTimewhich is why i lurk here.16:15
TheLordOfTime:)16:16
TheLordOfTimeyou know...16:16
TheLordOfTimei have a proposal:16:16
TheLordOfTimeand i would LOVE if you could comment, bdmurray:16:16
om26erballoons, bdmurray I have come to senses as well, given I was a bit unclear about this channel's purpose now its cleared. So we'll try to revive our BugSquad efforts the other way16:17
TheLordOfTimethe classroom is runing User Days in February.  I think that members of QA and bugs should run a session to raise awareness (a "Bugs and QA 101") for both teams and how they coordinate with each other, and how they differ.16:17
TheLordOfTimealso, bdmurray, there should be a "Bugs for the End User" session, giving an entry level session about bugs.16:17
TheLordOfTime(nobody's ever rallied for that thoug)16:18
TheLordOfTimeor, we should have a higher QA/BugSquad presence during a more technical run of -classroom16:18
TheLordOfTime(heck, even have a UDS presence)16:18
balloonssounds good om26er I wish you the best16:18
TheLordOfTime... oh COME ON16:19
TheLordOfTimehow hard is it to keep sbuild working...16:19
* TheLordOfTime walks off16:19
balloonsTheLordOfTime, we are having sessions this month.. gema will actually be talking about bugs16:19
om26erTheLordOfTime, end users better not be introduced to bugs ;)16:19
TheLordOfTimeom26er, i meant bug reporting16:19
TheLordOfTimeom26er, you'd be surprised how many bugs i see filed against unrelated packages :p16:19
balloonsnot from a bug squad perspective though16:19
om26erballoons, thanks :)16:19
TheLordOfTimeballoons, when're you holding the session(s)?16:19
TheLordOfTime(its not on any calendar)16:20
* TheLordOfTime may want to lurk16:20
balloonswe have to finalize dates16:20
balloonsit's on the list this week to punch them down16:20
TheLordOfTimethat'd be why its not on any calendar :P16:20
balloonsI owe liz an email16:20
TheLordOfTimeheh16:20
TheLordOfTimebdmurray, thanks for stopping in, apparently this was resolved prior to you stopping by, in case there was additional input needed from the -bugs side of thing, i wanted you to be nearby :)16:21
TheLordOfTimethanks much.16:21
* TheLordOfTime goes to fix his local builders now.16:21
hggdhactually, I propose we move the discussion to -bugs16:47
balloonsNoskcaj, howdy19:13
balloonsI updated the bug with my findings19:13
Noskcajballoons, hello, i saw that.19:25
Noskcajmy reason for thinking it's a bug is that is where manufacturers name the machine e.g. dell-5284519:26
balloonsyes, I agree19:27
balloonsxnox would have to tell us the intended behavoir19:27
balloonsalso, I noticed that if you change the default in oem, it's blank during user setup19:27
Noskcajinteresting19:28

dkesseli just filed bug 109577719:51
ubot5bug 1095777 in telepathy-logger (Ubuntu) "package libtelepathy-logger3 (not installed) failed to install/upgrade: Versuch, »/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtelepathy-logger.so.3.2.0« zu überschreiben, welches auch in Paket libtelepathy-logger2:amd64 0.6.0-1 ist" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/109577719:51
dkesselto reproduce, you just need to try and update a raring vm to the current package versions. hm. thinking about it.... is this not a bug but a normal temporary issue in a development version?19:52
balloonsdkessel, yes libtelepathy is in flux atm19:52
balloonsI believe there is a bug on it19:52
balloonsempathy fails to open atm, among other things19:52
dkesselballoons: oops... and a duplicate of it now :)19:53
balloonsno worries19:53
balloonslet's find it and dupe it19:53
balloonsI was just looking at it a couple days ago19:53
balloonshowever, in general, this stuff can happen during the development cycle19:53
dkesselbtw apport is reporting bugs automatically again in raring19:55
dkesselno mor 40419:55
balloonsyay19:55
balloonsI didn't get an answer, but maybe they saw my request19:56
balloonshehe19:56
dkesselhm. is it better to run my vm in english? it would make the log output more useful to non-german people :)19:57
balloonsheh.. yea,  I suppose that19:57
balloonsthat's not a bad idea.. testing non-english stuff is always good19:57
balloonsbut reporting and logs in english is good19:57
dkesselhm. too bad i can't change the language because my package database because of libtelepathy :/19:58
dkesselfound the original on, marking my one as dupe (original: 1095745)19:59
balloonsawesome, good stuff20:00
xnoxballoons: which behavoir are you after? =)20:04
balloonshey xnox -- umm let me nab the bug20:06
balloonsit's oem setup tuff20:06
balloonshttps://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/109546520:07
ubot5Launchpad bug 1095465 in ubiquity (Ubuntu) "Ubuntu raring oem install series name is ignored" [Undecided,Confirmed]20:07
balloonsso in short, what should the series name do for the oem install? it doesn't change the machine name default20:08
xnoxballoons: right series name has nothing to do with machine name. But it's interesting to know why that user is expecting it to be.20:08
balloonsand additionally, if you change the machine name default it doesn't carry over to the user install20:09
balloonsxnox, kk.. I wasn't sure. what should the series name affect? Anything?20:10
xnoxballoons: it is suppose to store series id somewhere under /var/log/installer/*, and include them in apport bug reports as a means of identifying the batch of identical machines.20:13
xnoxballoons: it should not change anything else at all.20:14
balloonsgot it.. so since we're chatting about oem installs.. can you answer the question about machine name defaults? will it only default to a machine name on the user install if you leave it alone (accept the default) on the oem install?20:17
balloonsI expected the user install to mirror the oem install machine name..20:17
xnoxwell. if there is network it tries to do dns lookup and use that name, if that fails we use something by default "$username-laptop" or something like that.20:20
balloonsright.. so, your not going to use the oem machine name at all during user20:20
balloonsso it's weird then why it came up blank for me20:20
xnoxballoons: it is really a bad idea to ship thousands of machines all defaulting to hostname "model1000" they will collide.20:21
xnoxballoons: black? even after you started typing your name in?20:22
xnoxs/black/blank/20:22
balloonsxnox, my expectation was to default to my username - OEMname of something20:22
balloonsregardless, yes, it was blank20:24
balloonsI would be happy to repeat it, and file a bug.. assuming this is not expected20:24
balloonssounds like :-)20:24
xnoxballoons: OEM series should be something like "thinkpad-t43-555546877-batch32-factory65-line2-shift4", e.g. nothing human sensible, but something that is uniquickly identifiable and tracable back to production line logs/batches/orders.20:25
xnoxthat would be a very ugly hostname =/20:25
xnoxballoons: it should not be black during the actual oem-config (i.e. when you reboot the second time as "end-user" after finalised & prepared install)20:26
balloonsxnox, k.. I'll close with your explaination, and file a new one for the blank issue20:31
balloonsty ty!20:31
xnoxack.20:32
balloonshey letozaf_20:47
letozaf_hello balloons20:48
letozaf_howzit ?20:48
balloonsI'm looking at your merges20:48
letozaf_the evince and nautilus tests do not work unfortunatly20:48
letozaf_*unfortunately*20:49
balloonsformatting is a bit weird tho20:49
balloonspython has to have it's indenting be exact :-)20:50
letozaf_oh! let me look at them I thought they were ok20:50
letozaf_but can you run them or have you errors ?20:50
letozaf_I could run them20:51
balloonsmight just be my client20:51
balloonshmmm20:51
balloonsnvm20:51
balloonsyep, it's my client identing20:51
balloonshmm20:51
balloonsare you using tabs or spaces? ideally 4 spaces20:52
letozaf_well usually I use tabs, sometimes spaces20:52
letozaf_let me see...20:52
balloonsanyways, i'll try running them in a sec20:52
letozaf_yes 420:53
letozaf_they do not work :(20:53
letozaf_looks like evince's window does not have focus so20:53
letozaf_when you press F11 or F9 nothing happens20:54
letozaf_same with screenshot and nautilus20:54
letozaf_:'(20:54
dkesselare you guys talking about manual tests converted to autopilot tests?20:54
balloonsgotcha..20:54
balloonsdkessel, yes indeed20:54
balloonsletozaf_ has been writing some autopilot conversions20:55
Noskcajletozaf_, are you going to convert the gedit testcase to leafpad, kwrite, ect.20:57
balloonsbah.. geany is making me sad20:57
dkesseli read about it the other day. it looks like a nice idea. i was surprised to see that autopilot is a part of unity though. i would've thought it would be better to evolve autopilot independently of unity, and have autopilot as a dependency when running unity tests20:57
balloonsdkessel, the latter is what's happening now20:57
letozaf_Noskcaj, if balloons says so yes, otherwise no20:58
dkesselballoons, oh - nice20:59
balloonshence, why we can utilize it now :-)20:59
dkesselhmm... the python version used is still 2.x, right? but what the hell - i might help creating/converting tests too. gives my some practice in python :)21:01
balloonsever written python or another language?21:01
balloonshehe21:01
balloonsyea, give it a whirl21:01
dkessellearnt c/c++/c#/java at university. only just learned python3 in the christmas holidays ;)21:01
balloonsgotcha21:03
balloonsyea, this is relaxing stuff21:03
letozaf_:-D21:04
dkesselis there a "worklist" like at the hackfest? with who is doing what, what is needed, etc...?21:05
balloonsdkessel, hmm.. we could easily make such a thing21:07
balloonsbascially the list atm is to convert our existing21:08
balloonssince we have an lp project now, I'd like to use it and not a wiki to do this21:09
dkesselok :)21:09
balloonsmeaning, I'd like to put that work and assignments, etc into the project on lp if possible21:10
balloonsnot used lp in that way..21:10
balloonsso it's new to me, but I'm hoping/assuming it's possible21:10
balloonsafter I finish this merge I'll have a look at doing that21:13
balloonsright now though, let me give you the list21:13
balloonsand you can see what's in bzr and what's not, so it's easy to see what's been done / working on and what hasn't21:14
balloonsdkessel, this is the list of package tests; http://packages.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/series/30/testsuites21:14
balloonsfor our purposes, we'll ignore the unity and webapp tests21:15
letozaf_by the way, balloons, but how are we supposed to test network manager with autopilot ?21:16
letozaf_I mean you need to plug in and unplug the network cable21:16
letozaf_to test it21:17
letozaf_suppose autopilot cannot do that ;)21:17
dkesselyou underestimate the power of autopilot ;)21:17
balloonsROFL21:17
balloonsyou could simulate it, but I agree21:18
balloonshence it's why the drones can't yet replace us21:18
letozaf_yeah! maybe we just disable and enable networking...21:18
balloonsthey've done some neat things21:18
dkesselyou could run the test on a dedicated machine with a simple robot attached ;) that moved the network plug in and out21:19
balloonsfaking sounds cards, etc21:19
balloonsfaking monitors21:19
balloonsmaking hardware bits to fake things21:19
letozaf_well I would really like to see how they made the faking things... must be interesting21:19
balloonsit is.. I should ping someone to talk a bit about it21:20
balloonsI don't have intimate details sadly21:20
balloonsand if I did, I don't remember them21:20
balloonshah!21:20
letozaf_:)21:20
dkesselballoons, i guess i should be able to convert the fileroller test, as a start. i will try it on the weekend. just so you know and nobody does duplicate work...21:24
balloonsgot it dkessel thanks!21:26
dkesselhm to create tests, will i still need unity source like it says here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Unity/QA/Autopilot? or can i get autopilot "standalone" from somewhere else?21:31
balloonsno, you don't need unity21:32
* balloons goes to look at link21:32
balloonsdkessel, if possible have a look at my blog posts21:33
balloonsgoes through writing a testcase (converting one actually)21:33
balloonshttp://www.theorangenotebook.com/21:34
dkesselah i see, nice21:34
dkessel*sigh* me and my "old" precise...21:37
balloonsumm..21:38
balloonswell, you might skate by running precise21:39
balloonsuse the autopilot ppa21:39
dkessel*checks ppa*21:39
balloonsyou may have to use the quantal version.. but I'm guessing you could kludge it21:39
letozaf_dkessel, what about using a virutal machine... should work21:40
letozaf_create a VM in Virtualbox for autopilot tests21:40
letozaf_with quantal21:40
dkesselalright :) you guys are right21:41
balloonsnothing wrong with precise btw.. I use it on my netbook21:41
balloonsand quantal on my wife's box21:41
balloonsbut I'm always running ubuntu+121:41
dkesseli'm doing it the other way around... on my normal private laptop (this one) i run precise, for stability and less daily frustration ;) on the netbooks i run raring21:43
letozaf_yeah on my notebook I've got Quantal and Raring, but there's always a free partition for tests so if I need I can install Precise21:43
letozaf_the advantage of a VM is that you do not have to reboot21:44
balloonslol.. yea, daily frustration i suppose is part of the fun.. haha21:44
balloonsbut yea precise is really nice21:44
letozaf_balloons, could you run the evince test ?21:44
dkesselon a netbook, would you normally run x64 or i386?21:46
balloonsI run 64tput.pdf21:47
letozaf_yeah you're running evince test :) (tput.pdf)21:49
balloonslol21:49
balloonsyes I am21:49
dkessel:D21:50
dkesselhmm just re-installing raring daily on one of my netbooks and the trackpad is not working22:05
dkessellet's see if that stops me from installing22:06
balloonskeyboard commands ftw22:08
dkesseli guess there should still be options displayed in the boot menu when booting from the iso?22:09
balloonsumm if you press something22:11
balloonselse it just boots22:11
dkesselok22:12
letozaf_balloons, I'm going to bed now it's quite late. let me know about the tests :)22:16
balloonsyes, I will22:16
balloonsI'll check them in22:16
balloonsno matter what22:16
balloonsyou did have tabs in there, so I'm killing them and using 4 spaces22:17
balloonsI'll merge nautilus tests too22:17
letozaf_ok22:17
balloonsohh one thing22:17
letozaf_the screenshot, nautilus and evince tests have problems22:17
letozaf_yes?22:17
balloonsthis output.pdf thing22:18
balloonswhere is it created?22:18
letozaf_under Documents directory in the users home dir22:18
balloonsyes, but how is it created?22:18
balloonsohh nvm22:19
balloonsI see22:19
balloonskk22:19
letozaf_Well I open help with F122:19
balloonsyep,. i get it22:19
balloonsg-night22:19
letozaf_ok buona notte :)22:19
letozaf_hope we find a way to fix them :)22:20
letozaf_bye22:20
balloonskk22:20
balloonshey welcome ;-)23:29
veebersballoons: hello :-)23:32
balloonshey.. you missed our earlier discussions.. but it will be nice to have you lurking23:32
balloonsalright, so  bzr branch lp:ubuntu-autopilot-tests  has letzoaf's code in tit23:38
thomiballoons: ok, got it. Which tests should I be looking at?23:39
balloonswell, I was working on evince, which was the pending merge23:40
thomiahhh, I see the issue23:40
balloonsspecifically, there's a few open ?'s comment lines in there23:40
balloonsI and other folks have just left comment lines when we couldn't actually perform the task ;-)23:41
thomibasically, 'self.start_app_window' isn't what you want to use. I'll write a short test case and push up a separate branch so you can see it working23:41
thomiI'll do something simple - gedit maybe'23:41
balloonsok, there is a gedit case23:43
balloonsumm in there, there's several gaps.. checking for windows or panels opening.. or for text, etc23:44
balloonsregardless.. yes.. show me the light ;-023:44
thomihmm, gedit is doing some really strange things.23:55
thomilike, when I open it, the default tab shows a 'busy' spinner in the tab header, and doesn't accept any keyboard input23:55
* thomi investigates23:55
balloonsahh.. yea, when I tried messing with introspection on gedit, it was quite odd23:56
* thomi swears23:56
thomialesage: are you aware that the autopilot-gtk package (in raring anyway) is essentially empty?23:57
thomialesage: this is the contents of the package: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1493751/23:57
alesagethomi brrtwha?23:57
thomino gtk module installed23:57
alesagethomi sorry let me investigate23:57
thomino worries - I'll try building a local package23:58
balloonsthomi.. well, it's late for me now23:59
