darkxstricotz, oops, I had already done it, but wasnt around last night00:07
ricotzdarkxst, i see, i hope you didnt do e-d-s too?00:10
darkxstricotz, no00:13
ricotzah, then you looked at folks 0.9.0?00:14
darkxstricotz, I used your e-d-s to finish it off this morning00:14
darkxstmust have just missed you ealier00:15
ricotzok :\00:21
ricotzi looked at empathy, but it seems libaccounts-glib.so.0 is broken00:22
darkxstdamn00:30
ricotzi think i got it wrong, just a linker problem00:32
darkxstoh, wow, just realised how long I have been using Linux01:39
darkxstwould be about 16 years, since I first got a slackware CD from somewhere and installed it on my computer01:39
darkxstjbicha, Finally got around to making a wiki page, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimLunn/DeveloperApplication03:25
darkxstcan you add an endorsement :)03:25
britthey is anyone else using the fglrx drivers07:01
brittI am having an issue where the gnome-shell activities window displays solid black background when I have the file manager handle the desktop07:01
brittthe only way for the activities view to show the background is to turn desktop file manager handling07:02
brittthis is in raring btw07:02
ricotzjbicha, hi13:08
ricotzjbicha, could you upload this http://paste.debian.net/plain/23738013:12
ricotzjbicha, please take this into account when updating to 3.7.90 https://launchpad.net/~gnome3-team/+archive/gnome3-staging/+sourcepub/2996246/+listing-archive-extra13:25
jbicharicotz: oh is that the proper fix for the empathy build problem?13:49
ricotzjbicha, it is a proper fix for everything using libaccount-plugin ;)13:49
ricotzthe empathy problem is an upstream problem13:50
jbicharicotz: so we still need your linker patch?13:50
ricotzyes, it is in the empathy package13:50
ricotzthe libaccount-plugin things is kind of needed for g-c-c, as you see13:51
jbicharicotz: unless it's critical, I don't think I can sponsor it as I think the fix needs to be proposed against13:54
jbichalp:gnome-control-center-signon13:54
ricotzjbicha, i see13:55
jbichaoh and I don't have upload rights to the package itself either13:55
jbichahttp://people.canonical.com/~stgraber/package_sets/raring/ubuntu-desktop13:55
ricotzjbicha, do you know if there were/are plans to upstream this panel, while empathy would benefit from it?13:56
ricotzalthough not sure if vala code would be accepted13:56
jbicharicotz: I'm sure the gnome-control-center devs are not at all interested in supporting external panels if that's what you're asking ;)13:58
ricotzwhat i am saying it the online-accounts panel is pretty useless, and empathy upstream support UOA, so there were no upstream attempts for the UOA panel13:59
ricotz(as far you know)13:59
jbichaI'm not sure Canonical wants that code to be maintained on git.gnome.org, but anyway you're welcome to try14:06
jbichaI guess you mean moving it into the empathy source?14:07
jbicharicotz: I filed bug 113211914:13
ubot5bug 1132119 in cogl (Ubuntu) "Upgrade to cogl 1.13.4" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/113211914:13
ricotzjbicha, no, i mean moving it to g-c-c like i didnt with the last upload14:17
ricotzjbicha, ah nice14:17
jbichathe odds of the g-c-c developers accepting that patch are very low14:18
jbichaeven if it was in C .... they do not support UOA14:19
ricotzok, either way, i wanted the functionality back, it was kind of the drawback without it14:21
jbicharicotz: do you know whether we're going to want http://git.gnome.org/browse/clutter/commit/?id=4b92d656 for raring?15:03
ricotzjbicha, i guess, yes15:06
ricotzotherwise we need to ship clutter in the ppa too15:07
ricotzdoes it break things already?15:08
jbichaI mean for raring directly, and no I haven't seen the problem yet but I don't tweak my fonts either15:09
jbichaI wasn't planning on uploading the new clutter for raring unless there was a good reason15:10
ricotzjbicha, ah, i didnt look at the clutter debdiff in the bug15:11
ricotzi thought you want to revert it for some reason15:12
ricotzno idea if there is going to be another 1.12.x bug fix release15:12
jbichait wasn't backported to the 1.12 branch, not sure if that was an oversight15:13
jbichanormal distros won't ship the new cogl with the old clutter and gnome-shell anyway; we're just "special"15:14
ricotzi guess there wasnt much backported anyway, but i think i isnt the best to hold back the new clutter15:14
jbichaok can you quantify the benefits?15:17
ricotzsorry, no15:18
jbichaI'm thinking it's slightly safer to just stick with the current clutter15:21
ricotzlibgdata snapshot and gnome-documents pushed16:02
ricotzgnome-contacts pushed16:19
jbicharicotz: why did you merge the empathy plugins and can we undo that?17:27
jbichanever mind17:53
ricotzbtw mutter/rules contain a typo and we really want to have symbols file here again18:25
darkxstjbicha, gdm http://pastebin.com/FH9aiqdw21:05
jbichadarkxst: thanks, unfortunately ppa uploads aren't working for me right now :(21:05
darkxstoh21:08
darkxstthe gdm transition is a mess right now ;(21:08
jbichawhich transition?21:09
darkxstafter login, you get blue-blinds background, then a white screen, then gnome-shell animates in21:10
darkxstalthough the white screen presumably comes from gnome-shell21:12
darkxsthttps://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=69432121:17
ubot5Gnome bug 694321 in general "gray background shows after login before the shell starts up" [Normal,Resolved: fixed]21:17
jbichadarkxst: are you able to upload to your ppa?22:21
darkxstjbicha, no apparently not, packages seem to be uploading into a black hole :)22:26
darkxstjbicha, actually did work, but took a long time22:38
