Laneyare .typelib files in multiarch paths supposed to work?09:18
didrocksLaney: no, see bug #112494109:19
ubot2Launchpad bug 1124941 in libappindicator (Ubuntu) "[raring] Python appindicators broken by the latest libappindicator update (12.10.1daily13.02.13-0ubuntu1) with "ERROR:root:Could not find any typelib for AppIndicator3"" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/112494109:19
Laneyyeah, that ;-)09:19
didrocksLaney: do you have time to fix + process the dummy test I described? :)09:19
didrocksso that we don't regress ever ever again on that? :p09:19
seb128Laney, I might be overlooking something but it seems like it would be an easy g-i patch to look to both the multiarch dir and the normal one09:20
seb128even if it's not proper multiarch in the sense of making other arch usable09:21
seb128but that would stop those mistakes because packages got multiarched and libdir/libexecdir changes and the typelib end up in there09:22
seb128pitti, ^ was that discussed before?09:22
pittiseb128: no, not that I can remember09:22
didrocksseb128: I would still have my test! :-)09:22
seb128didrocks, yeah, sure, tests are good ;-) it's just an annoyance, it complexify the packaging in quite some places since we have to special case the gir- and move stuff back to /usr/lib manually09:23
didrocksseb128: agreed :)09:24
Laneyautopkgtests are better for such package local things?09:24
didrocksLaney: right, but autopkgtests are not blocking yet the migration from proposed to the main archive AFAIK09:25
didrocksLaney: so, I would first put that as an autopilot test09:25
didrocksLaney: I think, as part of the long term goal is to:09:26
Laneyoh you don't check it in the daily landing stuff09:26
didrocks- have autopilot tests modular (not all in the unity package)09:26
didrocks- have autopkgtests run as part of the daily landing stuff, and put stuff we can put there (unfortunately, very few for now) into that09:26
didrocksLaney: jibel told me it's difficult to run them in that step right now, without the -proposed infra ^09:27
seb128Laney, judging by the number of emails in my launchpad bugs inbox, the retracers have been working through the backlog09:35
Laneyyeah I saw some, good news09:38
didrocksLaney: hum, I didn't see an answer, do you think you have the time today to look at this libappindicator, or should we let that to cyphermox?09:38
Laneyoh whoops, I was fixing it ;-)09:38
LaneyI don't know about doing autopilot tests but I did the packaging fix09:38
didrocksLaney: for autopilot, lp:unity09:39
didrocksLaney: tests/autopilot/09:39

didrocksLaney: ahah, would be better, isn't it? :)10:39
Laneyaha10:41
Laneydidrocks: so something like http://paste.ubuntu.com/1649392/ ?10:43
didrocksLaney: sounds perfect to me :)10:44
didrocksLaney: bonus point if you do the same for indicate, Dbusmenu-0.4, DbusmenuGtk*10:45

Laneygood idea - i'll generalise it a little bit and submit that then10:52
LaneyMirv: Hm, you here? I gots two problems with qt; wondering if you're aware — http://paste.ubuntu.com/1650651/13:20
ricotzLaney, hi :)13:21
Laneyo hai13:21
ricotzLaney, just a minor question, is the raring package of webkit 1.10.2 likely to build on precise without changes?13:22
MirvLaney: the first one is since qt5-default only suggests installing qt5-qmake and other tools handled by qtchooser. the latter is an upstream user unfriendliness bug, it should display help similar to man qtchooser13:24
Laneyricotz: I've built 1.10.0 there before so a good chance13:24
Mirvthe latter is fixed in upstream git by having a help text, I'm not sure if the error text in the former case is now more user friendly13:24
ricotzLaney, ok, thak13:24
ricotzLaney, thanks13:24
LaneyMirv: so what do I have to build-depend on for qt5-qmake? I thought qt5-default was supposed to be enough13:25
MirvLaney: qtbase5-dev brings with it a good collection of packages13:25
Mirvqt5-default is only the default configuration for qtchooser, but does not by itself mandate the installation of development tools in case the user only wants to use eg. qmlscene which is standalone13:26
Laneyalright, thanks13:30

ricotzLaney, no upload needed, just keep it in mind for the next one13:47
LaneyI usually look at the diff of configure.ac so don't notice such historical catching-ups - so thanks for that13:49
ricotzLaney, yeah, unfortunately they matter much in regards of precise13:50

mptOh, hi mterry :-)18:04
mterryseb128, :)18:05
mterrympt, hi!  I see you posted some sorting changes to the SoftwareUpdates spec?18:05
mptmterry, a design for adding sorting as a feature. No biggie.18:05
mptAn ideal task for dylanmccall, I think :-)18:06
seb128mterry, btw I need to talk to you about update-manager next week18:06
seb128mterry, the ui is buggy18:06
mterryseb128, :(18:06
seb128mterry, I tend to right click, deselect all, and pick an update when I want to do a specific binary update18:06
seb128mterry, but most of the entries in the main list are non clickable18:07
mterryseb128, Hmm.  OK, I can look at that18:07
seb128it's also weird to have lot of stuff listed in the main list and then another bunch under the ubuntu logo at the bottom18:07
seb128what's the difference between both?18:07
mterryseb128, Ubuntu core is everything that the seeds depend on (i.e. what's on the CD)18:08
mterryseb128, except for apps (things with .desktop files) which show at the top18:08
mptseb128, the detailed definition is at <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareUpdates#expanded> -- "The base package is..."18:09
mterryer, what's on the DVD I guess :)18:09
seb128mpt, thanks18:09
mptAny recursive dependency of ubuntu-desktop (or equivalent), ubuntu-standard, or ubuntu-minimal18:10
mptdependency/recommendation18:10
seb128mpt, mterry: http://ubuntuone.com/1VNdHCnGPqxj3AfhcXx1qy18:10
seb128mterry, mpt: it's weird to have "Tools for debuging application menus" in the main list18:11
mterryseb128, you installed it manually (directly or indirectly) right?18:11
seb128I guess so18:11
mterryseb128, the thought is that you care about it then18:11
seb128it's a debug tool18:11
seb128I can about it less than the core OS18:12
mterryseb128, :)18:12
seb128and the core OS seems like second class citizen in the list compared to it18:12
mterryseb128, I'm not wedded to the current layout.  But this is mpt territory18:12
seb128mterry, mpt: thanks, at least I understand the logic, still seems weird that this debug package I don't care much about (it just happens to be installed) is listed before the default Ubuntu components18:13
seb128and on a more "main" level18:13
seb128I guess non-dev users have less of those dev packages and just core OS and apps18:13
mptWe could have a branch for development packages, I guess.18:16
mptSo that they're grouped together in the same way as base packages.18:16
seb128mpt, yeah, that could be nice18:24

=== jackyalcine is now known as zz_jackyalcine
tjaaltonseb128: yeah, forgot the sru part19:05
Sweetsharkseb128: patch is in upstream 4.0 so will be in raring anyway. I didnt consider it for a SRU as it doesnt fix a security issue or crasher or something similar severe. If I would, there would be literally thousands of patches to consider.19:14
Sweetsharkseb128: I dont magically make something more important because it has a patch on lp instead of on freedesktop (would be a moral hazard anyway). And if that should land in quantal, it should done so by a backporting the patch to upstream stable 3.6, not by a vendor patch as that give us a sane review process (with knowledgable patch reviewers) for free and -- by MRE -- spares us the redtape of an SRU.19:17
Sweetsharkseb128: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/628105/comments/39 as for precise, remember the >20 backported patches I SRUed for 3.5.7 which all fixed bad crashers or prevented release regressions? If we open up for this class of bugs, we would end up with 200 patches every 2 month easily. 3.5.7 was the last 3.5 release. This release https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Releases/3.6.5/RC1 of the later 3.6 series was done19:42

mdeslaurseb128: what component actually draws the indicator menu at the top of the screen?19:43
mdeslaurindicator-appmenu?19:43
Sweetsharkseb128: ... and that assumes that finding out if a bug is 3.6-only or also applies to 3.5 is no work and that backporting from 3.6 to 3.5 is trivial, which it just isnt when people are doing stuff like ripping out obsolete, but widely used stringclasses of a 5 million LOC codebase.19:45
Sweetsharkseb128: the first bug on that list https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=758138 is comparable to lp#628105 in scope and severity. Why should I take care of the lp# bug but not of the fdo# one? (Unless there is a UA ticket for the lp# one.)19:49
