RiddellQuintasan: http://summit.ubuntu.com/uds-1303/meeting/21688/desktop-r-ubuntukylin-inputmethod-ibus-or-fcitx/  might be interesting to you00:01
yofelworks for me so far, and it has a cleaner look than launchpad00:02
yofel+ no dead links all over the page00:02
RiddellI think we should have someone go to http://summit.ubuntu.com/uds-1303/meeting/21666/community-xubuntu-contingencies/00:03
yofelapachelogger: what's agile about "don't update for a month if you want to use the snapshot, but you'll have to update to rolling if you want (security) updates"00:03
RiddellI'll be busy at a pre-arranged real life meeting00:03
apacheloggeryofel: it sounds agile00:04
apacheloggerI didn't say it is agile :P00:04
yofel...00:05
yofelRiddell: http://summit.ubuntu.com/uds-1303/meeting/21670/community-1303-quality-rolling/ is interesting too00:05
apacheloggerRiddell: when is that?00:05
Riddellapachelogger: what's what?00:06
yofelbah, monthly snapshotting is at the same time as the xubuntu session00:06
apacheloggerRiddell: the xubuntu thing00:06
yofelhttp://summit.ubuntu.com/uds-1303/2013-03-06/ 18:1500:06
apacheloggerthe page does not state a time or anything00:06
valoriewhen is the meeting?00:06
valorieI'm at least in the channel now00:06
* apachelogger shakes head00:06
Riddellapachelogger: xubuntu discussing how to live with no non-LTS releases, we'll have much the same issues to worth sharing00:07
apacheloggergood thing we have a so well integrated online uds system00:07
Riddellvalorie: which meeting?00:07
apacheloggerhave to go elsewhere to see when a session takes place -.-00:07
valoriethe xubuntu00:07
yofelvalorie: tomorrow 18:15 UTC00:07
valorieah, OK00:07
valorieyes, I think I can make that00:07
Riddellskellat: ⇈00:07
* apachelogger is not sure but can try00:07
Riddellskellat: ༒00:08
valorieI don't have technical know-how, but I've read up on the issues00:08
Riddellvalorie: can you use a google hangout?00:08
valorieyes00:08
skellatvalorie: Make sure you subscribe to the blueprint, mark attending on Summit, and then I can marked you "required" so you can be on camera via Google Hangout00:08
valoriecheck, and check00:09
apacheloggerplus points if you wear a fancy hat :)00:10
skellatvalorie: You're good to go.  The big thing is to look over the question I set out on the blueprint, be ready to briefly raise a summary of Kubuntu's worries about all of this, and be ready to discuss steps and contingencies all of us among the flavors have looking forward.  We don't have many good options at this point but it is still important to build a record.00:11
skellatThe main idea why the session was so close to the end was so that it could be a stock-take of everything else that happened so that from the flavors perspective we could start stating how things appear to us.00:13
skellatE-mails and planet posts are great but sounding reasonable and calm on video in this day and age helps a lot00:14
skellat:-)00:14
skellatAnd now I need to disappear for a while...00:16
* skellat disappears to join family watching Wheel of Fortune00:16
wendarapachelogger: :)00:19
wendarapachelogger: and rolling sounds like something pigs do ;)00:19
apachelogger^^00:19
valoriefancy hat!00:47
valorieI'll look for one00:47
valorieI have a kubuntu hat if nothing else00:47
valorie:-)00:47
valorienow to dinner00:47
valorie"summary of Kubuntu's worries" is a doc I will work on in 4-5 hours00:48
valorieif someone wants to start a pad and thoughts before that, that would be great00:49
* valorie disappears00:49
RiddellI'm on slashdot!01:03
Riddellfame and fortune are mine at last01:03
apachelogger"slashdot is weird"01:03
apacheloggerRiddell: lol01:04
apacheloggerthat's what you get for trolling :P01:04
Riddellwould it be socially acceptable to add a "p.s. I'm single and eligable incase any cute slashdot ladies in the 25-35ish age bracket are interested"?01:05
ScottKRiddell: slashdot link?01:06
Riddellslashdot.org01:06
apacheloggerRiddell: I guess01:07
ScottKMeh01:07
apacheloggerhttp://apple.slashdot.org/story/13/03/05/2256243/gnome-founder-miguel-de-icaza-moves-to-mac01:07
Riddellit's my bitchy one about gnome rather than my bitchy one about canonical01:07
apacheloggertoo much bitching about canonical :P01:08
ScottKapachelogger: Is that possible?01:14
apacheloggerdunno01:15
apacheloggersee, I am restraining myself01:15
apacheloggerso I try to not think about it too much01:15
ScottKAlcohol probably helps with that.01:15
ScottKHmmm.01:16
apacheloggerENOAVAIL01:16
ScottKOhhhh.  So sad for you.01:16
* ScottK is just realizing that with a big snowstorm coming tonight, it's probably 36 hours before he has any need to be sober enough to drive.01:16
apacheloggeroh01:18
apacheloggerparty time until power's gone I guess? :)01:18
ScottKThen I'll need the alcohol so my blood doesn't solidify.01:20
apacheloggerhm01:22
apacheloggernot enough alcohol for now and later?01:22
apacheloggerI've never seen an actual snowstorm I think01:23
ScottKReally?01:24
* ScottK thought you lived in a reasonably snow ridden country.01:24
ScottKNo, I think we have plenty, just commenting that an early start would provide benefits later.01:24
apacheloggerwe get windy snowing, nothing what I would call a snowstorm though01:25
DarkwingHoly.... yup that's snow01:25
apacheloggerperhaps my perception of snow is off01:26
Darkwinghehehe. I can't see 20m from my house01:26
Riddellglorious sunshine in Scotland for the last week, all welcome here01:27
DarkwingSnow was falling too hard.01:27
Darkwing:D01:27
apacheloggeris that a snowstorm?01:27
DarkwingMy mailbox has nevr been this bad.01:27

lordievaderGood morning, btw o/07:42

Riddellsoee: no what did you say?08:19
Riddelllordievader: got kubuntu ninjas details?08:20
lordievaderRiddell: What do you mean?08:21
soeeRiddell, 4.10.1 tested on Raring, no errors, no problems during and after upgrade08:21
mgraesslinRiddell: just curious - given the blog post you posted yesterday... don't you have to remove your own blog for being "unconstructive" - that was the word, wasn't it?08:25
Mamarokhey, can somebody please add me to Kubuntu0s Trello group? I already have an account08:28
Riddellmgraesslin: I was highlighting the need to remove blogs which are unconstructive, that's a very constructive thing to do!08:29
RiddellMamarok: I think that's it done08:30
mgraesslinand the p.s.? /me didn't know planetkde and slashdot are a dating platform08:30
Riddelllordievader: do you know how to install from ninjas?08:31
Riddellmgraesslin: oh you'd be surprised, I'm getting the offers flooding in08:31
Riddellor I'm sure they will any minute now08:31
lordievaderRiddell: Uhmm, no.08:31
mgraesslin:-D08:32
Riddelllordievader: msg'ed08:32
Riddelladd that for precise08:32
Riddelland update && dist-upgrade08:32
MamarokRiddell: thanks, but you added me as a memberto a board, not as a member to the group :)08:33
lordievaderRiddell: To the sources I take, shouldn't it be precise?08:33
Riddelllordievader: yes08:33
RiddellMamarok: try now?08:34
MamarokRiddell: works, thank you :)08:40
Mamarokvalorie: why Xubuntu? are you no longer using Kubuntu?08:43
valoriethey have a session scheduled, and we do not08:43
Mamarokwell, then we should schedule one, I doubt they will care much for KDE08:44
valorieand the other devels have conflicting schedules08:44
valorieno, they know we have common issues08:44
valorieas a fellow 'Flavor'08:44
valoriethey asked for one of us (at least) to attend08:45
lordievaderOk, cool. Updating now to 4.10.1 :)08:45
valoriehttps://docs.google.com/document/d/1zgbZJgsCVaItWtd-zldemD7B0kssrjnPK95jyvMipQs/edit?usp=sharing08:45
valorie[22:49] <valorie> anyone with the link can edit08:45
valorieif you would like to chime in08:45
jussican we talk a little about how we can use these developments to our advantage? ie. if the Mir thing didnt come up, we would actually be happy about ubuntu moving to Qt08:45
Mamarokvalorie: yes, I have seen that, but why not make a blueprint?08:45
Mamarokgosh, Summit, I hate you!08:46
Mamarokit doesn't let me log in , same problem every time, that thing just sucks big time!08:46
valoriewell, I'm not in charge of that08:47
Mamarokvalorie: I know, I didn't blame you08:47
valoriewe're planning a kubuntu session this weekend, when there are some answers08:47
valoriethis is basically a list of our questions08:47
valorieI hope we get some answers08:47
valorieeverything seems so amorphous now08:48
soeeRiddell, packages for Quantal are ready ?08:49
soeeif yes i can test now08:49
yofelsoee: yes08:50
valoriejussi: I think we CAN use the developments to our advantage08:50
soeeyofel, but i have no ninjas ppa here at work - can you sed me ?08:50
valoriebut some answers about what will actually happen will be good to hear08:50
Riddelljussi: ubuntu moving to Qt (again) is nice, means we get them to do lots of work on the Qt 5 packages, and we get to feel smug about making the right toolkit choice many years ago, but not much other advantage for us08:53
jussiRiddell: but come on, how important is that nice smug feeling!?08:54
jussiI think the contribution raise both to Qt5 and its packaging will actually be significant to us.08:55
Riddelljussi: oh totally, being smug gets you on the front page of slashdot so I'm all for it08:55
valorielol08:55
valorieit would be nice if patches went upstream though08:56
Mamarokvalorie: don't forget to sleep before 18:00 UTC :)08:56
valoriegoing to bed soon, for sure08:56
valorielooooong day tomorrow08:56
Mamarokoh my, I was just not aware that UDS is now...08:59
valorieyeah09:01
valorietons of stuff dumped on us this last week09:01
MamarokRiddell: shamelessly self-advertising now?  ;)09:08
shadeslayeryofel: can you give me access to the mumble db09:08
jussiRiddell: :D Nice "Im single come and get me" there also :P09:08
yofelsec09:08
soeeguys why thers always this message when upgrading kde: http://pastebin.com/yUt4wadE ? i knnow i shoudl ignore this but shouldn't this be removed/fixed ?09:09
yofelshadeslayer: http://yofel.dyndns.org/kubuntu/mumble-server.sqlite09:11
lordievaderRiddell: 4.10.1 installs, boots and runs nicely on 12.04.2 :D09:11
lordievaderHmm the Search and Launch activity has a bug though, you can search but not open anything.09:14
Riddelllordievader: awooga09:16
lordievaderRiddell: A log-out, log-in has fixed it.09:17
Riddellsoee: that mime types will be listed in some applications .desktop file but not listed in mime database09:19
Riddellshould be some simple grepping to track down09:20
soeeRiddell, yofel upgrade on 12.10 done, no errors/problems and my desktop panel shadow is back also :)09:20
soee4.10 -> 4.10.109:20
lordievaderRiddell: Is there some test report I need to fill in somewhere about 4.10.1?09:21
Riddelllordievader: just add it to http://notes.kde.org/kubuntu-ninjas please09:23
MamarokI just upgrade 4.10.1 on 12.10, works fine, nothing bad I can see so far09:28
Mamarokupgraded*09:29
shadeslayeryofel: You don't have permission to access /kubuntu/mumble-server.sqlite on this server.09:31
yofel*blink*09:31
yofeloops, it's 64009:32
yofelshadeslayer: now09:32
RiddellMamarok: great09:32
shadeslayergot it09:32
shadeslayeryofel: any ideas where it's stored by default?09:33

shadeslayeryeah that's what I'm doing09:37
Tm_TRiddell: doeet09:42
Tm_Tthat's pretty much I was thinking of about this situation09:42
yofelSad to see him "leave", even if he's saying what I've been thinking for a while09:43
Riddellshould I be trying to schedule a mumble session for some day soon?09:46
Tm_TI still try hold ubuntu name related to me, but I've been considering the last year or so if I should just stick with kubuntu (email address etc)09:46
RiddellTm_T: don't let canonical's antisocial attitude to community rub off on Kubuntu!09:47
Riddell(I actually don't entirely disagree with canonical's antisocial attitude to community, kde/gnome haven't taken over the world, fair enough they try something else, just a shame for their community)09:48
soeeit feels like now after upgrade on 12.10 all forks a bit smoother :)09:48
Tm_TRiddell: it's the communication, how and when they do it what bothers me most09:48
Tm_Talso how decisions are done, not the actual outcomes of decisions09:48
RiddellI wonder if I posted to ubuntu-devel saying kubuntu is switching to qt-razor if it would be believed given what's happened recently09:49
Tm_T"look we have this new product! go ask more from community!" ... "uh, we know only what's on that web page?"09:49
Riddellon a completely different topic, random e-mail du jour http://paste.kde.org/688526/09:52

valorietrue, but10:23
valoriewe don't have infra to move to yet10:24
valorieso while we're here, we should be friendly, IMO10:24
Riddellvalorie: I'm not saying Kubuntu should move out of Ubuntu, I'm saying disillusioned people from elsewhere in ubuntu should come here10:24
valorieeveryone else is going nutso, so we should be the calm, friendly ones10:24
valorieyes, but please wait a few hours before re-reading10:24
valoriethere is a definite edge to your post10:25
shadeslayerI can't hear any of you if you're speaking10:26
shadeslayeryofel: the loud tapping is because my mic is located right next to the keyboard I think10:26
RiddellI've frozen mumble by running the audio wizard10:26

ovidiu-florinhey lordievader10:48
shadeslayerRiddell: do the t1 micro instances cost anything?10:49
ovidiu-florinI'm stressed, I want to do so much but I don't think I have the time10:49
Riddellshadeslayer: yes, $0.085/hour10:49
shadeslayerhm weird10:50
shadeslayerI thought t1.micro was free10:50
yofeluse ec2 for meetings to be on the safe side. You can use my instance for idle chatter10:50

Riddellshadeslayer: oh maybe I'm wrong  Micro On-Demand Instances $0.020 per Hour10:51
Riddellsays http://aws.amazon.com/ec2/pricing/10:51
Riddelland the small have gone down too, Small (Default)$0.060 per Hour10:52
shadeslayernah, I thought we qualified for the free usage tier10:53
Riddell"As part of AWS’s Free Usage Tier, new AWS customers can get started with Amazon EC2 for free." dunno what counts as new but I've had this account for a while10:53
shadeslayerah10:54
shadeslayerit's only free for a year, then I guess we've exhausted it10:54
Riddellthere's also bandwidth to pay for10:54
shadeslayeroh, what's the cost for that?10:56
Riddelldunno10:56
Riddellhttp://aws.amazon.com/ec2/pricing/ is your friend10:56

smartboyhwgood11:11
smartboyhwdhade11:11
smartboyhw What the....11:11
smartboyhwshadeslayer, RT for what?11:12
Riddellximion: interesting blog post there, but what's wrong with Kubuntu? or are we being tarnished by canonical?11:12
Riddellshadeslayer: oh, by asked I ment file an RT11:12
Riddellsmartboyhw: for qa.kubuntu.org domain11:12
* smartboyhw has just posted an post for ranting about Canonical-community relationship11:13
sneleguys is 4.10.1 for 12.04 in backports ppa? I ask because I am getting no updates11:13
ximionRiddell: no - in fact, I even use Kubuntu on my laptop (Debian Testing is not great there), but I wished more independence for people involved in Kubuntu11:13
shadeslayercontext?11:14
ximionif Canonical wants to make more use of Qt, they will want to control the Qt packaging, which in turn affects KDE. So does every other decison about the system core11:15
Riddellshadeslayer: http://blog.tenstral.net/2013/03/a-new-debian-based-distribution.html11:15
shadeslayerahh that11:15
ximionRiddell: e.g. for my KDE+systemd experiments, Ubuntu is clearly a bad choice ;-)11:15
Riddellximion: eek, don't make KDE depend on systemd!11:15
shadeslayer^11:16
smartboyhwRiddell: http://smartboyhw.tk/wordpress_smartboyhw/?p=2711:16
ximionRiddell: that is not the plan - we were thinking about some kind of abstraction/fallback, but for now danttis sessionk might already be a great way to go11:17
ximion(I started with this stuff to get rid of ConsoleKit, and then continued to try to make systemd --user handle a KDE session)11:17
shadeslayerer11:18
shadeslayerthat doesn't sound good for people using Kubuntu :|11:18
smartboyhweh11:18
shadeslayerunless we switch to systemd as well, which would require insane amounts of work 11:19
ximionbtw, about Ubuntu: the latest developments really confused anyone developing a derivative. And I think it was Scott who raised some concerns about derivatives on the ML, which were not adressed by Canonical yet (probably because they haven't thought about it)11:19
smartboyhwximion: +111:20
ximionshadeslayer: that is just what I was doing for fun, nothing I want to push to KDE default. for handling a KDE session, sessionk is a pretty cool new thing.11:20
murthyI have made a backup of the base image of pbuilder which was created with raring as distribution , i am creating a new image with quantal as distribution, my question is whether the aptcache in /var/cache/pbuilder willl be overwritten ? 11:21
ximionbut for killing ConsoleKit, systemd+logind is incredibly awesome :) (even Ubuntu switches to it, but they create another compat layer to make it work, this time for systemd ^^)11:21
Tm_Tximion: the old session handling is rather old isn't it (:11:21
ximionTm_T: yep - it's problem was that it worked so well that nobody thought about replacing it ^^11:22
ximionbut from looking at the code, you can see a lot of bogus in there11:22
ximiondantti even found a one-shot 4sec timer, which was the most surprising thing.11:23
shadeslayeryeah I've seen that11:23
murthyshadeslayer: how can i find the audio device used by phonon11:27
shadeslayersystem settings > Multimedia > Phonon ?11:28
Riddellbetter to ask apachelogger?11:28
murthyshadeslayer: using terminal11:28
shadeslayerhmm11:28
shadeslayerI have no idea :S11:28
murthyRiddell: you mean audio stuff?11:28
murthyshadeslayer: ok11:28
yofelRiddell: some xubuntu thoughts on the community thingy: http://paste.kde.org/68864011:28
murthyapachelogger:  the audio playback turns in to chipmuk voice when a popup notification appears and its very embarrassing 11:30
murthyapachelogger: there is a notification with title "Removed sound devices". Tell me how can i find the current device used by phonon or pulse. This problem could be confined just to amarok, i have to test further11:32
murthyapachelogger: its amarok11:34
shadeslayerusually it's the first device that you set in the systemsettings kcm11:34
murthyshadeslayer: amarok bug11:34
shadeslayercan you tell me which one?11:34
murthyshadeslayer: clementine and flashplugin works11:34
murthyshadeslayer: which ? device?11:35
shadeslayerwait what, what's happening11:35
shadeslayermurthy: can you tell me what exactly is the issue11:35
Riddellyofel: thanks11:36
murthyshadeslayer:  audio is playing in amarok and when a popup notification appears and the audio changes to chipmuk voice, the bit rate changes i guess11:36
shadeslayerokay, and can you check if you can reproduce it on another phonon backend?11:37
murthyshadeslayer: a notification appears with title, audio device removed11:37
shadeslayerlike, you're most likely using the gst backend, can you check if it also happens on the gst backend11:37
murthyshadeslayer: vlc?11:38
murthyshadeslayer: v0.6.0 ok?11:39
shadeslayerphonon has multiple backends, check which one is activated11:40
murthyshadeslayer: installed vlc, going to test11:41
shadeslayerer, not vlc, there's phonon-backend-vlc11:41
shadeslayerwhich is what you need to install11:41
murthyshadeslayer: thats what i mean11:41
shadeslayerah okay :)11:41
murthybrb after restart11:42
murthyi can reproduce the bug and its worst with vlc backend11:48
murthyshadeslayer: ^11:48
shadeslayerouch11:48
shadeslayermurthy: please report a bug on bugs.kde.org against phonon11:48
shadeslayerand you can rant in #kde-multimedia :P11:48
murthyshadeslayer: I am going to check once more to confirm if its a amarok bug11:48
shadeslayerabout how apachelogger doesn't fix bugs11:48
murthyheh11:49
murthyis there a way to paste audio?11:49
shadeslayerpaste what11:49
murthyshadeslayer: audio sample :)11:50
murthyshadeslayer: when i am bosting about kde, this is like a face palm to me11:50
murthyshadeslayer: *boasting11:51
shadeslayerheh, not that I know of11:51
shadeslayeryou could attach the file to bugzilla if it's freely distributable11:51
murthyshadeslayer: ya, thats what i had in mind11:52
murthyshadeslayer: so that apachelogger could listen to it and enjoy11:52
murthyshadeslayer: sending files over irc work?11:52
murthyshadeslayer: i am hearing a square wave modulated song11:53
shadeslayerheh11:53
shadeslayerI'm sure you can reproduce it with any file11:54
murthyshadeslayer: is the mumble thing for the UDS?11:54
shadeslayeryup11:54
murthyshadeslayer: ya11:54
shadeslayerbecause we don't want to tie into proprietary services like G+ Hangouts11:54
murthyshadeslayer: are you people going to talk about mir?11:54
murthyshadeslayer: nice11:54
shadeslayerI have no idea11:54
shadeslayerwe need a session11:55
murthyshadeslayer: will this be available for viewing?11:55
shadeslayerjust audio I believe11:55
murthyshadeslayer: oh only audio?11:55
shadeslayeryou can join in and listen, we don't place restrictions11:55
shadeslayeryep11:55
Riddellshadeslayer: should someone be scheduling a session?11:56
shadeslayerRiddell: IMHO yes11:56
shadeslayerabout what we want to do11:56
shadeslayerand how releases are going to work out and everything11:56
murthyshadeslayer: the complex config process you people where doing frightens me11:56
shadeslayermurthy: it wasn't really complex :P11:57
shadeslayerjust bootstraping a juju instance, installing mumble on it and giving everyone access11:57
murthyshadeslayer: i hope you guys make it available later11:58
shadeslayermurthy: yeah, we will record everything and make it available 11:59
murthynice11:59
murthygoing for a restart11:59
apacheloggershadeslayer: phonon gstreamer is your area of expertise12:00
shadeslayerno it's not12:00
apacheloggeryou ported to gst1...12:00
shadeslayerdoesn't make it my area of expertise12:00
apacheloggeralso I think at some point I had a tool for audio device probing12:00
shadeslayerI still don't 'get' alot of the code12:00
apacheloggerno clue where thatwen12:00
apacheloggert12:00
apacheloggeralas, I never merged that into anything official12:01
apacheloggermurthy: you could simly run amarok --debug-audio12:01
apacheloggerto me it sounds though like your driver is crap12:01
apacheloggeror alsa is broken12:01
apacheloggeror pulse is broken12:01
apacheloggerall three of them12:02
=== smartboyhw-m is now known as smartboyhw
apacheloggermurthy: did you work on tomahawk changes yet?12:10
soeeletest homerun looks cool :)12:14
* yofel goes publishing 4.10.1 to backports and prepares l10n12:17
murthyapachelogger: I have done the changes, need to test build, just now created a pbuilder base for quantal, going to test12:17
murthyapachelogger: i am wrong and its not amarok12:17
murthyapachelogger: like you said it should be pulse or phonon or alsa12:18
murthyyofel: so the lintian work will be for 4.10.2?12:18
apacheloggerit's not phonon12:19
yofelmurthy: yeah, we can merge it as soon as you want though12:19
apacheloggerphonon does not cause buffer underruns12:19
smartboyhwyofel: Yeah12:19
apacheloggerwell, not actively anyway ^^12:19
murthyyofel: you mean now?12:20
yofelmurthy: feel free to post it, someone will merge it as soon as there's time to review it12:20
murthyapachelogger: so the chipmuk voice is created due to buffer under run?12:21
apacheloggerfrom your description it sounds like it12:21
apachelogger--debug-audio would know more :P12:21
apacheloggerin fact it woudl probably tell you if it is an underrun or not :P12:21
murthyyofel: it wont be possible today12:22
yofelmurthy: no problem12:22
yofelmurthy: tomahawk has higher priority as tomorrow's feature freeze12:22
murthyyofel: ya12:22
murthyyofel: cool?12:22
apacheloggerrekonq is so funny12:23
apacheloggerlike 3 years ago I reported a bug where when I was typing too fast the urlbar would discard already written characters upon load completion12:23
smartboyhwlol12:23
apacheloggerthat was apparently fixed, except now I see it again on quantal12:23
apachelogger...12:23
murthyapachelogger: i will do the debugging after i finish with tomahawk12:24
smartboyhwWhoa!?!?12:24
yofelit's there in rekonq 212:24
yofel(the bug)12:24
* apachelogger shakes head12:24

smartboyhwlol12:25
* apachelogger feels like proposing to ship 13.04 without browser12:25
apacheloggerRiddell: didn't you upload user-manager?12:25
smartboyhwWhoa!?!?!?!?!?!???!12:25
apacheloggerI don't see it anywhere12:25
Riddellapachelogger: it's in New12:26

Riddellyes it is12:26
Riddellalong with "unity-tweak-tool" that sounds fun12:26
apacheloggerah12:27
Riddell"qml-friends" hey they stole my friendly meme12:27
apachelogger:(12:27
* smartboyhw thought somebody will approve unity-tweak-tool12:27
yofelthat's not ubuntu-tweak renamed, is it?12:28
apacheloggerif it is anything like the ubuntu-tweak thing from some years ago it will get le rejected12:28
smartboyhwI need to report it to the AskUbuntu guys12:28
apacheloggerand then people will start whining12:28
apacheloggerand then it will get rejected again...12:28
smartboyhwNo.it's not12:28
smartboyhwIt actually made it to multiple news headlimea, e.g OMG! Ubuntu12:28
apacheloggeranything makes it to omgubuntu12:29

shadeslayerRiddell: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-2168432912:31
murthyyofel: i can see that you had done some changes to the build-depends of tomahawk , did it successfully build last time ?12:33
Riddellshadeslayer: naturally I think that was me reporting it that made them take action12:33
shadeslayerhaha12:33
yofelmurthy: in the PPA yes, you'll have to drop jreen for the archive I believe12:34
shadeslayerpeople from the EU commission hang out on #kubuntu-devel12:34

apacheloggersheytan: ping12:42
yofelrdieter: pykde4 question: fedora has no working python3 kpythonpluginfactory support, right? (at least from how I understand the spec file)12:43
smartboyhwRiddell: You were mentioned in http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2013/03/ubuntu-13-04-still-on-course-for-april-release12:44
Riddellsmartboyhw: I just hope I'm right, but they can't back down now it's on omg ubuntu, that makes it official I'm sure12:44
rdieteryofel: correct.  i've not had any chance to look closer to how to make that all work (esp in parallel with python2)12:44
apacheloggerRiddell is all over the news lately ^^12:45
rdieteryofel: how do you deal with it?  (only ship one, python3 kpythonpluginfactory?)12:53
apacheloggerif we did a package transition in 11.10 can we drop the transitional packages?12:54
yofelapachelogger: yes12:55
apacheloggerhooray12:55
apacheloggerRiddell: do I need to file a binary removal request for that too?12:55
yofelrdieter: well, currently we only have python2 working as well, that's why I was looking for ideas elsewhere. Right *now* it's py2: kpythonpluginfactory.so, py3: kpythonpluginfactory.cpython-33m.so - which doesn't work12:55
Riddellapachelogger: you could just ask me and hope I'm responsive12:55
yofelhm, setting X-KDE-Library=kpythonpluginfactory.cypthon-33m in the script desktop file would probably work12:59
yofeltotally unportable though12:59

apacheloggerRiddell: uploaded kubuntu-web-shortcuts dropping kubutnu-konqueror-shortcuts transition, I also added a card to the 13.04 board for the binary removal13:02
apacheloggeryofel: what's ppa package test btw?13:03
yofelppa? I mean the dh_auto_test ones13:03

RiddellI don't think there's anything I want to watch at UDS today until this evening when I'm busy :(13:30
yofelI might listen to the QA discussion in 1.5h, maybe they have some ideas for rolling that we could reuse13:33
yofelshadeslayer: ^13:33
shadeslayercan you ping me when that starts13:33
apacheloggerRiddell: logind means nothing much other than consolekit code needs to be replaced13:34
yofelsure13:35
apacheloggerthough from what I have seen that is ifdef'd with logind anyway13:35
* shadeslayer is writing a script using scanimage13:36
yofelshadeslayer: how do you script inserting paper? "sudo make-me-a-sandwitch" style? ^^13:37
shadeslayerhahah13:37
shadeslayernah, that's done manually by men13:37
shadeslayers/men/people/13:37
kubotushadeslayer meant: "nah, that's done manually by people"13:37
Riddellapachelogger: right but we have some consolekit code in KDE no?13:38
apacheloggerRiddell: we also have appropriate logind code in KDE ;)13:38
apacheloggeri.e. AFAIK you cannot have a systemd+consolekit setup, so for all the systemd setups you'd need to have logind code already13:39
apacheloggerRiddell, ScottK: did I miss it or was it really not discussed how to do LTS releases from rolling yet?13:40
ScottKIt was not.13:40
ScottKIt got mentioned, but that's about it.13:41
Riddellapachelogger: that issue is over a year away, no discussion needs to happen until a week before it happens13:41

jussiNow then, who do I blame for this....14:04
jussi/var/cache/apt/archives/plasma-widget-homerun_0.2.1-0ubuntu2_i386.deb14:04
jussitrying to overwrite '/usr/share/kde4/apps/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.homerun/contents/ui/config.ui', which is also in package homerun 0.2.0~git20130118+r500-23~quantal114:04
murthyyofel: is it wrong to exploit launchpad by using priority as extra?14:05
* smartboyhw is to be blamed by jussi14:05
jussismartboyhw: you are forgiven if you fix it...14:06
yofelmurthy: why exploit? That's dpkg stuff, and extra is the lowest priority that exists (see policy)14:06
smartboyhwWait why is it a -0ubuntu2?14:06
yofelmurthy: that's the idea: put transitional packages into the deprecated section with lowest priority14:06
murthyyofel: my cpu is p4 and its slow14:06
yofelmurthy: I don't get what you want to say...14:07
murthyyofel: i thought of putting it in the ppa to see the buildlogs14:07
Riddelljussi: presumably that old homerun package comes from some dodgy PPA?14:07
yofelsmartboyhw: ubuntu2 was the missing watch file14:08
smartboyhwjussi: Are you having a PPA?14:08
murthyyofel: in my system it may take 30 mins for building tomahawk, if i put the priority as extra and push to to my ppa launchpad might build it soon and i  can see the buildlog soon14:09
smartboyhwWith special homerun in it?14:09
jussismartboyhw: no idea... its on my "evil ppa's are ok" machine, so maybe14:09
yofelmurthy: as I said, the *Priority* field has nothing to do with launchpad14:09
yofelmurthy: what you mean is the package urgency14:09
yofelmurthy: and use medium please14:09
murthyyofel: ya thats what i mean14:10
yofel(that would be fine if it's blocking your work)14:10
murthyyofel:  isnt priority field= package urgency ?14:10
yofeluhm, no. Those are totally different things14:11

murthyyofel: does launchpad route critical priority to faster computers?14:13
apachelogger:@14:14
yofelmurthy: no, but the queue manager looks at it when scheduleing your build: https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/BuildScores14:14
yofelmurthy: debian uses it similiar, except there it is used for calculating after how many days a package goes from unstable to testing14:16
murthyapachelogger: tomahawk needs either one of these or both "-DBUILD_RELEASE=ON"  " -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release" , have to check by removing one of those. Building fails when removing both of them14:16
apacheloggeryeah14:17
apacheloggerwhat's the error?14:17
murthyapachelogger: couldn't find the x86_64_gnu_linux dir, the dir name is something i can remember14:18

apacheloggeryofel: it's a twitter library obviously :P14:24

xnoxyofel: from my point of view all of this has "landed" before ff, not uploaded. We still need to do translation export from launchpad and sync up d-i translations from debian.14:24

yofelmurthy: there's example packaging in the tomahaw ppa, but I have other priorities right now14:47
murthyyofel: ok14:47
murthyyofel: its just the limited time14:47
yofelI know14:48
yofelare they required?14:48
murthyyofel: optional14:48
murthyyofel: why are these optional packages put in build-deepens instead of recommended? 14:49
yofelthere is no Build-Recommends14:50
yofelapachelogger: worth uploading without them? IMO they're not *the* killer features of tomahawk14:50
murthyyofel: i can across some fiels named recommended 14:50
yofelmurthy: for binary packages, yes, but not the source14:50
murthyyofel: ok14:50

murthyyofel: you mean like we remove the build-depends of the two packages?14:51
yofelyes14:51
murthyapachelogger: funny thing is happening14:51
murthyapachelogger: to narrow the one option that is not required i removed one and it compiled and after that i put it again and removed the other and now it is also getting bilt 14:53

shadeslayer:S15:11
apacheloggerhm15:11
apacheloggeryou know15:11
apacheloggerLTS+KDE as release has problems15:11
apacheloggerin terms of hardware compat15:12
Riddellapachelogger: not so much using backported lts bits15:12
apacheloggerto run semi-new laptops you often require latest kernel and/or Xstack15:12
yofelnot if you incorporate the harware enablement stack15:12
apacheloggerso unless there are somewhat liberal foundation backports this ought to be a shitty solution in a lot of cases15:12
apacheloggeryofel: do you really think that is going to happen?15:13
apacheloggeri.e. I think the present foundations stack backports are done because we have no moving target which you can base a fast paced deployment on15:14
apacheloggerso that would be fixed by switching to rolling15:15
yofelrolling is currently not meant for users and companies, so if they ship new hardware, the backports are critical15:17
ScottKapachelogger: They are planning on doing hardware enablement backports.15:17
ScottK(like they did for 12.04.2.)15:18
ScottKThey know they have to figure out how to do that.15:18
apacheloggerhm15:18
apacheloggerthis will be so much fun15:19
apacheloggerScottK: when do you backport from a moving target? :D15:19
ScottKGood question.  Not yet answered.15:20
ScottKYou are not, however, the first to ask it.15:20
apacheloggernot sure there is a sensible answer15:20
ScottKAFAICT, it's on the "stuff we have to figure out" list.15:21
micahgapachelogger: whenever what you're backporting is stable, same as now15:21
ScottKI think it's take a snapshot of the kernel and X and then test the stuffing out of it on the LTS base.15:21
apacheloggermicahg: but how do you define that in terms of the entire stack?15:21
apacheloggerto me it seems that what that would end up as is picking it a random point in time when it appears to work well in rolling, then backport and QA hammer until sufficient quality is reached15:23
apacheloggerwhich is like a release freeze implemented via backporting15:23
micahgapachelogger: I don't see rolling as any different from a dev release WRT this15:23
ScottKmicahg: But they don't currently backport from the dev series, they do it from the current release.15:24
apacheloggermicahg: yeah, except even in dev releases we have transitional periods and such, plus the enablement backport would have to work well with the old userspace, not just the rolling one15:24
apacheloggerand what ScottK said15:24
apacheloggerright now you know the stack itself is internally compatible as it went through release QA15:25
apacheloggerso you only need to establish it as stable with teh old userspace15:25
apacheloggerwith rolling you have this additinal release QA15:25
apachelogger*don't have15:26
micahgScottK: who?15:28
micahgI've done backports from devel release to stable15:28
* micahg is wondering if he missed the beginning of this15:28
ScottKmicahg: The LTS hardware enablement backports (they aren't properly backports in our sense)15:28
micahgoh, heh, right15:29
ScottKlts-quantal-foo for 12.04.2 being the most recent example.15:29
apacheloggeroh, also in terms of KDE ... if we needed to build against a hardware enablement backport to get a new KDE backported we basically have to do release-style QA on that15:30
micahgyeah, I'd say once it's in the stabler part of the RR for X period of time with no RC bugs15:30
apacheloggeras then the foundation is not LTS *and* KDE isn't15:30
apacheloggerplus the foundation is more than likely not the same as is then present in rolling15:30
apachelogger:S15:30
* apachelogger gets dizzy again15:30
murthyapachelogger: tomahawk builds without the two options, i have no explanation for this15:33
murthyapachelogger: should i drop libjreen-dev and libqtweetlib-dev ?15:34
apacheloggeryes15:34
murthyapachelogger: why is this name like this libqtweetlib-dev ?15:34
apacheloggerbecause the soname is libqtweetlib15:35
murthyapachelogger: why?15:35
murthyapachelogger: why it is not libqtweet?15:35
mikhasRiddell, I wasnt aware that planetkde.org is moderated15:35
apacheloggermurthy: because of upstream15:35
mikhasbut sometimes I wish more planets were … to keep them somewhat on topic15:36
apacheloggerthey called it qtweetlib, which on unix becomes libqtweetlib.so15:36
apacheloggeron windows I believe it will actually be qtweetlib.dll15:36
mikhasnow, PGO is decisively *not* just about Gnome development, but about the people behind Gnome and what's going on in their lifes15:36
apacheloggerthough I may be mistaken15:36
apacheloggerhaven't built stuff on windows in a while15:36
murthyapachelogger: why qtweetlib?15:36
apacheloggerbecause15:36
murthyapachelogger: why not libqtweet15:37
Riddellmikhas: a light touch approach but see Planet KDE Guidelines under  Add your blog in http://planetkde.org/15:37
murthyapachelogger: why?15:37
apacheloggermikhas: it's not actively moderated, it just has guidelines on what to post ^^15:37

yofelthat session was like... nothing new15:46
murthyvery shot15:46
murthyvery short15:46
apacheloggerm?15:46
yofeland I was ignored15:46
murthyi expected some heated arguments15:47
apacheloggeryofel: I told them to, sorry for that :S15:47
murthyyofel:  you?15:47
yofelkubotu: throw something at apachelogger15:47
yofel:(15:47
apachelogger:S15:47
apacheloggerkubotu: order a shield15:47
* kubotu slides a shield down the bar to apachelogger15:47
apacheloggeronce more unto the breach15:47
yofelmurthy: weeeelllll, I asked about how they intend to Q/A mesa upgrades, which went unnoticed15:47
yofelnevermind15:48
murthyyofel: thats a very important question15:48
apacheloggerthey don't :P15:48
apacheloggerQA is not agile15:48
yofelI guess that's yet another thing we have to figure out ourselves15:48
yofelor just ask the X team15:48
apacheloggeras I said earlier15:48
apacheloggerwe are potentially looking at much more QA work on our part15:49
yofels/potentially//15:49
kubotuyofel: You did something wrong... Try s/you/me/ or tell me "help sed"15:49
murthymost of the people hitting #kubuntu suffer from driver problem syndrome15:49
murthyapachelogger: i can push it to my branch but i dont know how to merge it with 0.6.015:50
apacheloggerbzr merge? S:15:50
murthyapachelogger: do i have rights?15:51
apacheloggeryofel: as long as we don't have to use hardware enablement we have less work...15:51
apacheloggerparticularly since opinions now seem to converge on advanced-user target audience for rolling15:51
apacheloggerwhich means business as usual15:52
apacheloggerand focus on LTS backports15:52
yofelapachelogger: well, it matters if we for example now want people to install kubuntu on something with secure boot15:52
apacheloggeryofel: why's that?15:52
yofelif we only have rolling, and don't update the LTS. We'll have nothing rock-stable people could install15:52
murthyyofel: from the debian priority docs that you gave , i know that the partners are given higher priority15:53
yofelmurthy: again, priority or urgency?15:53
apacheloggeryofel: I think it is save to assume that we will advocate LTS+KDE as our stable releaes product15:53
murthyyofel: oops urgency15:53
apacheloggerrolling is just, well, git master :P15:53
yofelmurthy: yes15:53
yofelapachelogger: it's not supposed to be git master. It's supposed to be  a Q/A'd git snapshot15:54
yofelwhatever tha tis15:54
apacheloggerNo15:54
apacheloggerIt is supposed to be an always releasable master.15:54
yofelok, in that case you're right15:55
apacheloggerSame as KDE. Otherwise we'd not have build.kde.org to do build QA :P15:55
yofel(neither would neon work actually)15:55
apacheloggerAs it seems right now it almost perfectly maps to how KDE does development.15:55
murthyapachelogger: one of the participant said in case of a rolling release it is upgrade centric rather than image centric. What are problems we will probably facing? 15:56
murthyyofel: ^15:56
yofelwell, if we can get KDE to care a bit more about Q/A-ing every 4th release, then sure15:56
apacheloggermurthy: no15:57
murthyapachelogger: no what?15:57
apacheloggeryofel: Why?15:57
yofelmurthy: there are daily images which are always supposed to work, so that's not really the case15:57
apacheloggeryofel: If KDE says it is stable, it is stable.15:58
yofelyeah, right.....15:58
murthyha ha ha15:58
apacheloggerThere is no metric through which we as downstream can establish whether a KDE thing is stable15:58
apacheloggeralso stable is an overused term anyway15:58
apacheloggerwhat's stable?15:58
yofeldoesn't eat your neutrons15:58
murthyapachelogger: particularly in kde15:58
apacheloggerBuilding? Installing? Not crashing? Not having feature regressions? Having all features desired? ....15:58
* yofel wonders how they're going to Q/A ubiquity15:59
yofelcan't really do that without an image15:59
apacheloggerHaving no critical bugs? Wha are critical bugs then? What about semi-criticial bugs?...15:59
yofelnobody cares about semi critical bugs, otherwise our LTS wouldn't show akonadi warnings on every boot anymore16:00
xnoxwe have jenkins to do automatic testing of all the default tasks / ways to install desktop image. It's preseed based + manual test case, we do not at the moment have UI testing (automatic with like autopilot) but working on that.16:00
xnoxyofel: what akonadi warnings are you refereeing to?16:00
yofelxnox: misconfigured default mail folder settings16:01
murthyapachelogger: i dont have a 0.6.0 local branch16:01
yofelfor example16:01
yofelxnox: it breaks exactly nothing, it just looks bad16:01
xnoxyofel: no idea. it's a bug in akonadi then, not in ubiquity, right?16:01
yofelxnox: that wasn't about ubiquity (I mixed the topics up, sorry)16:02
apacheloggergj :P16:02
murthyapachelogger: are you ok with the changes? 16:02
yofelxnox: what's tested in jenkins? the installation parts?16:02
apacheloggeryofel: as I said there is no metric16:02
apacheloggerwhen upstream says it is stable and it builds+installs+autotests we must assume it is16:03
yofelapachelogger: sure, but fact is that kde 4.8 will stay around for a while longer16:03
yofeland there's interfaces to like... twitter or whatever else built-in16:03
apacheloggeryofel: I am not talking about the past16:03
yofelthose might change16:03
apacheloggeralso I think I fixed the akonadi crap16:03
apacheloggerthen no one QAd my fix16:03
apacheloggeras every f'ing time16:03
yofelthat doesn't sound unlikely....16:04
apacheloggerneed to beg for 3 months to get phonon releases QAd16:04

ScottKThat's what I'm thinking.16:18

QuintasanRiddell, not really, I'm still at uni, I will ask certain people later if Ubuntu will be making the switch16:39
RiddellQuintasan: nah it's not yet, but they were interested in our reasons for not switching16:40
mikhaswhich switch?16:42
mikhassorry havent been following16:42
Quintasanas in upstream being interested why Ubuntu is still using IBus?16:42
mikhasand instead use fcitx?16:42
Quintasanmikhas, there are people advocating the switch from IBus to glitz16:43
mikhasglitz, hm16:43
Quintasanbecause it has better de integration and whatnot16:43
mikhasnever heard of it unless it refers to that weird OpenGL experiment in Gnome16:43
mikhasweeeell, you *could* argue that IBus has turned into something Gnome3-specific16:44
Quintasanno, it's new input method manager, as far as I can say it is better than IBus16:44
mikhasbut you have to admit that the DE integration is done nicely there16:44
mikhasam googeling16:45
mikhasaaaand … hard to google!16:45
mikhasQuintasan, got link?16:45
ScottKQuintasan: I thought fcitx didn't support as many languages as ibus?16:46
Riddellit doesn't support korean16:46
Riddellthere seems to now be a japanese module16:46
Riddelland the chinese love it, which is why ubuntu kylim are using it16:46
mikhasthere is libhangul for Korean16:47
mikhasif someone wanted to have Korean in fcitx, you could add it16:47
mikhasfcitx is loved because of raw input performance, or so I heard16:48
mikhasIBus is supposedly slow in that regard16:48
mikhasnot being a native Chinese, it's hard for me to verify those claims myself16:49
QuintasanIBus is written in Python that's why it's slow16:49
mikhasthat's way too simplistic16:50
mikhasIBus architecture (and flexibility) is perhaps more to blame than Python itself16:50
QuintasanI think upstream said they are interested  in adding new languages Riddell16:52
Quintasanas in fcitx upstream16:52
Quintasanit's a matter of time imo16:56
ScottKI think that's a prerequisite to switching.16:59
ScottKOnce there's language coverage, then it's probably a reasonable thing to do.16:59
* Riddell joins #ubuntu-uds-plenary17:01

mikhashaha17:30
mikhasScottK, register a slot and dont say anything for a solid 15 minutes17:30
mikhasthat would be CoC compliant and still get your point across, no? ;-)17:31

apacheloggervalorie: <3 for hat18:49
apacheloggeralso I think what has been said the past 5 minutes seems very much in line with what kubuntu wants to do moving forward18:49
apacheloggerKris_CGo: Yeah well. :)18:50
shadeslayerwhat apachelogger just said18:50
shadeslayer6 month support cycle + interim cycles sounds awesome18:51
valorie<3 to all of you18:51
apacheloggeryofel: I'd really like a thought on the libexec thing18:51
shadeslayerapachelogger: why is that an issue?18:52
shadeslayerbecause lintian complains?18:52
apacheloggerbecause it's not in the FHS18:54
apacheloggerputting it in /usr/lib/* makes it FHS compliant18:55
* apachelogger needs to leave for about half an hour18:55
shadeslayerhm18:55
yofelnow that session was productive for a change19:07
ScottKOh?19:07
yofelScottK: rick will make another proposal for the derived distro thing, or preferably just shorting usual release support timeframe to only a bit more than 6 months19:08
shadeslayeryeah19:08
shadeslayeryofel: I thought micahg was going to do that19:08
yofelwell, him and rick19:08
ScottKShould be at least 12.19:08
shadeslayerah okay19:08
ScottKYou've got to support current and current -1.19:08
yofelScottK: does it need to? IMO ~9 would be enough for people to find time to upgrade19:09
shadeslayerScottK: the 6 month support is actually more in sync with KDE, so isn't that a good thing?19:09
yofelyou can't *skip* releases during upgrade anyway19:09
ScottKshadeslayer: KDE does security support for N-2.19:09
yofeland if you do you're as unsupported as upgrading from an unsupported release19:09
micahgScottK: we're looking at 6.5-9 months for support, Rick would like it as minimal as possible, I think we have some wiggle room, but I think with a quality boost, we can make release upgrades fairly seamless so that we don't need the extra overlap19:09
shadeslayerScottK: but no bug fix releases19:09
shadeslayeragain, different values of support for me and you :P19:10
ScottKshadeslayer: Sure.19:10
micahgScottK: it's just a second proposal that I'll right up, everything's on the drawing board right now, but I think this idea makes a decent compromise19:10
micahgs/right/write/19:10
kubotumicahg meant: "ScottK: it's just a second proposal that I'll write up, everything's on the drawing board right now, but I think this idea makes a decent compromise"19:10
micahgI feel much better after that session personally19:11
ScottKshadeslayer: I tihnk (for example - if 12.04 wasn't LTS) we should support 12.04 for some time after the final KDE point release is released for 12.10 so that people who want to upgrade .5 -> .5 can do it.19:12
shadeslayerokay, that makes sense19:13
shadeslayerthough I think /most/ of our userbase jumps from .5 to .119:13
micahgScottK: why wouldn't they go from .5 -> .2 or something?19:13
micahgs/wouldn't/couldn't19:14
ScottKmicahg: Wanting to wait for the most mature version.19:14
ScottKThey could.19:14
yofelScottK: wouldn't that be ~9 months?19:14
ScottKyofel: Depends.  We're just about to release .5 now.19:14
micahgScottK: right, but if they need that much comfort, wouldn't an LTS be better suited?19:14
yofelas we're shifted compared to the kde schedule19:14
ScottKYes.19:14
yofelworst case it would be .419:14
ScottKmicahg: Not if they want current KDE.19:15
yofelif that would hold true we shouldn't have removed 4.9.5 from the precise backports19:15
yofeland just make version-specific backport PPA's19:15
micahgScottK: do you think that most of your users are like that, or do the ones who like the latest mostly upgrade shortly after the newer KDE is available in the next release?19:15
ScottKmicahg: I think it's a bit of an edge case.19:16
yofel(support nightmare, but that's where that thought leads)19:16
ScottKBut if it's LTS + some stuff for us then why not.19:16
ScottK~none of the stuff that in the "stuff for us" catagory is supported by Canonical19:16
ScottKSo they have to support the rest for the LTS anyway.19:16
ScottKI don't see why it matters what the exact window is.19:17
micahgScottK: ok, so, maybe keep the PPAs for the edge cases, I'd like to avoid the need for doing major work outside the archive for releasing stuff19:17
micahgthe window matters for security support which is of the things we need from Canonical19:18
micahgit's resources that can be used elsewhere19:18
ScottKIf we're a derived distro, can't we just sync security changes from the LTS?19:18
micahgoh, if we're derived distro, we'd inherit, I'm trying to avoid the need for derived distros at all :)19:19
ScottKSince ~none of the derived distro specific changes are in Main, why should they care?19:19
ScottKOh.  I don't see how that's possible.19:19
micahgwe just discussed it in the Xubuntu contingency session, we'd keep the 6 month cadence, reduce the support window, ramp up quality to make release upgrades seamless19:20
micahgI'll be writing a longer version of that to ubuntu-devel19:20
ScottKSo rolling would be dead?19:21
micahgthat way we have the stable images with the latest flavor stack, we don't need to start worrying about extra archives and backporting, and we can all benefit from the quality improvements19:21
yofelScottK: yeah19:21
micahgI'd like to think of it as absorbed :) most of the concepts from rolling would be integrated19:22
ScottKmicahg: There are no concepts from rolling that aren't already planned for the development series.19:22
ScottK(except the silly monthly thing)19:22
apacheloggerwe repalced big rolling with sponge absorbing :D19:22
apacheloggers/big/pig/19:22
kubotuapachelogger meant: "we repalced pig rolling with sponge absorbing :D"19:22
ScottKIt's it's same as now except 9 months of support instead of 18, then that's not a major change.19:23
micahgright :), less jarring for everyone19:23
yofelScottK: one of the positive points of rolling was the lesser workload for the security team. So if maybe if we compromise here we could keep the 6 month releases19:24
yofel+ maybe a policy to not put beta stuff in the archive19:24
yofelso ubuntu can still call devel rolling19:24
apacheloggerScottK: well it is what we essentially would have ended up with19:24
apacheloggerregardless of rolling19:24
apacheloggerso that is a very positive change19:24
apachelogger(also the less support part of it)19:24
ScottKReminds me, I should check and see if 4.9.5 needs releasing.19:25
apacheloggerso we always have 2.5 active targets WRT KDE SC (lts, stable and dev)19:25
ScottKIt's actually LTS - 1, LTS, stable, and dev.19:25
ScottKat least part of the time.19:25
ScottKSInce we signed up for 5 year LTS.19:26
yofel5 years is actually LTS-2, LTS-1, LTS, stable, dev19:26
micahgright, you'll even get an LTS-2 in there in about 2.5 years19:26
yofelI don't think we need LTS, stable-1, stable, dev here19:26
yofelright now we even have stable-219:27
apacheloggercould be argued to be -3 to provide transition period19:29
micahgright, it reduces the overall number of releases supported as well as making backports to LTS releases easier since you don't have to go through multiple intermediate series19:29
apacheloggerat any rate it reduces targets19:29
apacheloggerScottK: also LTS-1 is no target for new releases IMO19:30
ScottKYes, but it's supported.19:30
shadeslayerhow true19:30
apacheloggerI find it hard to imagine that KDE 4.10 would actually build on 10.04 without substantial library backport19:30
ScottKI also don't think we should backport current KDE past one release.19:30
apacheloggerScottK: perhaps rethinking LTS may be useful19:31
apacheloggerin a KDE context19:31
ScottKMaybe.19:31
apacheloggeras I mentioned the other day... right now we are really fouling ourselfs and the users with claiming that a kubuntu lts is actually supported for 2 years19:31
apacheloggeras upstream does not support their releases that long and we do not really go to any lengths to establish large scale support from our side19:32
shadeslayerheh19:32
yofelwell, at least for 12.04 we still kind of care (note, it's not even been 1 year of the 5)19:32
apacheloggerso really unless they use a ppa backport they are running a somewhat unsupported KDE (excluding security and perhaps high impact bugs, of which there should none be left anyway)19:32
yofelIMO we *should* find some time to check what 4.8 patches debian has19:33
micahghigh impact bugs can develop over time depending on what changes on the systems in general19:33
ScottKI think fixing security and high impact bugs is what support means.19:34
apacheloggermicahg: in such a case I'd see the bug in whatever changed in the LTS ;)19:34
apacheloggerScottK: dunno it's not really explained19:34
apacheloggerI think I also ranted about this some months ago19:34
* shadeslayer checks what time FF occurs19:35
* apachelogger shivers19:35
apacheloggeryofel: so what about libexec?19:35
yofellet me, again, read channel backlog19:36
apacheloggerwe should introduce community awards19:36
apachelogger"best supporter"19:36
apachelogger"worst developer"19:36
apachelogger"best bug triager"19:37
apacheloggerstuff like that19:37
apacheloggerthough I fear worst developer will always go to Quintasan19:37

* Quintasan sends shadeslayer apachelogger's way19:38
yofelapachelogger: what's wrong with the libexec dir again?19:38
shadeslayereh whaaa19:38
shadeslayeryofel: not FHS19:38
apacheloggeryofel: not FHS19:38
apacheloggeryofel: where does upstraem install it?19:38
apachelogger/usr/bin?19:38
shadeslayerapachelogger: why do you need even more workspace?19:39
yofeland /usr/lib/kde4/libexec/ is FHS?19:39
shadeslayererm19:39
shadeslayerwork force19:39
apacheloggeryofel: it's inside usr/lib/19:39
apacheloggerso yes19:39
* yofel needs source19:39
* yofel got source19:39
Quintasanlol shadeslayer19:39
apacheloggerthe point of libexec is that it's a lib only accessible by whatever knows where it is19:39
Quintasanapachelogger always needs more workforce so he has to do less19:39
apacheloggersuch that I personally would put it ina  subdir of /usr/lib19:39
apacheloggerI maen, it's still a shared library19:40

yofel 37 [2011-12-26 23:33] <domme> yofel: uh, what did happen there? CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBEXECDIR is empty in your build.. that should never happen actually19:45
yofel  6 [2011-12-27 00:02] <yofel> domme: works when I move "ADD_SUBDIRECTORY( src/breakpad/CrashReporter )" *ABOVE* "ADD_SUBDIRECTORY( src )" in the main CMakeLists.txt19:45
yofel  5 [2011-12-27 00:02] <yofel> you're creating config.h before CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBEXECDIR gets defined19:45
apacheloggerso it's their fault!@#!19:46
yofel  3 [2011-12-27 00:03] <domme> just set CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBEXECDIR to libexec explicitly19:46
yofelthat's what happened19:46
apacheloggerTHERE CODE IS WRONG19:46
apachelogger*THEIR19:46
shadeslayerit's always an upstream issue19:46
apacheloggeryou need to explicitly include gnuinstalldirs19:46
apacheloggerso clearly they do that after their config stuffz19:46
apacheloggeror cmake was broken at the time19:46
apacheloggerboth possible19:46
apacheloggergnuinstalldirs' value is still crap though19:47

sheytan_apachelogger: don't worry bout the dots20:48

jessieAnything that tries to make sound also freezes.20:48
apacheloggeralsa/pulse20:49
apacheloggerwell20:49
apacheloggeractually most likely some application is using stuff incorrectly and then locks out every other application from outputting any sound20:49
apacheloggerwhich in turn may freeze the applicatin20:50
jessieIt happens sometimes when Chrome uses Flash, i.e. YouTube.20:50
jessieIn fact, that's probably 99.99% of the time that it happens. I then kill Chrome and the sound system never recovers till reboot.20:51
apacheloggerflash's fault it is then20:51
jessieIndeed. It's frustrating as all get out. So what's the best way to have my system recover? I've tried killalling pulseaudio20:52

apacheloggersame url21:47
sheytan_YES!21:47
apachelogger-.-21:47
apacheloggerthat would have taken you 2 drawings to explain21:47
apacheloggerlooks weird though21:48
sheytan_i did my best :P21:48
apacheloggerScottK: http://people.ubuntu.com/~apachelogger/tmp/video.mkv21:48
sheytan_now try not to make that empty space between21:48
apacheloggersheytan_: best would have been to simply draw it -.-21:48
apacheloggersheytan_: hm?21:48
apacheloggeryou have to have at least one dot that is not highlighted21:48
apacheloggerotherwise it is static21:49
sheytan_ok21:49
sheytan_nvm ;D21:49
sheytan_now let that artwork be done21:49
soeehalo21:49
apacheloggersheytan_: uhm?21:50
sheytan_apachelogger: what about remove now the 'kubuntu' text?21:50
apacheloggerfirst get some feedback on that21:51
sheytan_i like it :D21:51
apacheloggereveryone sleeping already Oo21:53
* yofel will look in a bit21:54
sheytan_they miss cool stuff21:54
* ScottK does not like.21:55
soeemay i share my opinion ?21:57
sheytan_apachelogger: try background color d0d0d0 and gradient i sent you21:57
apacheloggeryou sent me a gradient?21:57
yofelo.O21:57
yofelsoee: go ahead21:57
sheytan_i just did21:57
yofelapachelogger, sheytan_: looks weird IMO21:57
yofelmaybe if the dots have a different brightness so it seems that they fade out21:58
soeewe have 2 elemtns logo + name why do you want to put there 3 element with animation ? In my opinion do some animation on this 2 logo + text, i might not like windows but when windows is booting you have their logo animated and this is good idea, this should be simple with most important elements (logo + Kubuntu text)21:58
apacheloggerhttp://wstaw.org/m/2013/03/06/plasma-desktopBa2230.png21:59
Sputdebfx: RelWithDebugInfo or RelWithDebInfo? the internet seems to claim it should be the latter, Quassel uses the former, but we screwed it up so I need to fix it either way21:59
apacheloggerlooks broken21:59
* yofel liked the original black implementation21:59
SputQt, KDE and the CMake FAQ refer to the latter as well, so I guess I should go with that one.21:59
apacheloggerexcept plymouth is now grey21:59
yofelthis doesn't feel too different from what we have right now :/22:00
sheytan_apachelogger: f**k. sent again22:00
apacheloggerhttp://wstaw.org/m/2013/03/02/plasma-desktopJZ2250.png22:01
apacheloggeryofel: we don't have to reinvent the wheel :P22:01
debfxSput: yep, RelWithDebInfo is the right one22:01
Sputdebfx: thx, I'll go fix it upstream then.22:01
yofelapachelogger: you already had it reinvented -.-22:02
apacheloggerhttp://wstaw.org/m/2013/03/06/plasma-desktopCs2230.png22:03
apacheloggeryofel: tell that to sheytan_ who then had to do a different with lightdm+ksplash22:03
yofelah well22:04
apachelogger*different style22:04
yofelsoee has a point though22:04
apacheloggernot that having a point helps with artwork22:04
apacheloggerI mean, I have plenty of points in that screenshot22:05
yofelexactly, so drop those points22:05
apacheloggerdoesn't make it any better :P22:05
sheytan_you wanted a new plymouth theme, i was thinking about. I had some ideas, you don't like them. No problem, we can leave the current one22:05
* yofel found the wave interesting, the dots not22:05
apacheloggersheytan_: that means rejecting lightdm+ksplash though22:05
sheytan_apachelogger: it doesn't. You just leave the animation. U can still change the background22:06
apacheloggeryofel: it would be interesting as some complex artwork wave22:06
yofelhell, we could just have a *static* plymouth image22:06
apacheloggerwith multi-depth and shit22:06
apacheloggeraka GLish22:06
apacheloggerlike such http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GUb1gIKhwMU22:06
yofelas long as it's consistent in the end22:06
apacheloggersheytan_: it did look bad22:06
apacheloggerthat's why wanted to change the plymouth theme22:06
apacheloggerthe gear glowery did not work with grey or something22:07
apacheloggerand black plymouth to greyish lightdm causes the urge to throw up, so that wouldn't work either22:07
yofelwell, THAT is certainly not implemented in plymouth22:07
sheytan_apachelogger: can you make that glow stuff again with a dark blue solid bg?22:07
apacheloggeryofel: course not22:07
soeesimple, simple simple: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MC-x_muJHrc, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=32TcdcirXlM, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LnweaNTtb1k, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2m1OeK7ZJIs22:07
apacheloggerbut that is a way a simple wave works22:07
apacheloggeralas you could not get rid of the dots and draw it as a line22:08
apacheloggertaht'd look like a shit^1022:08
apacheloggersoee: we are not making a phone22:08
apacheloggerand technically speaking the windows7 booty is not simple22:09
apacheloggerwell, codewise it is22:09
apacheloggerI mean you just do random sin/cos22:10
apacheloggerartistically it works well because the windows logo has 4 parts that are the same (with different color)22:10
soeeapachelogger, what i want to say is that boot screen in this examples has logo maybe some extra text but no more elements and in my opinion this is good concept, i am not talking about complex animations etc - just my opinions, consider or ignore :) 22:11
apacheloggerthe idea is to not have text in the dot version22:11
apacheloggeralas that does not change the fact that the dot version looks weird22:11
apacheloggersheytan_: what color value?22:12
apacheloggerand what gear colors etc.?22:12
soeeapachelogger, are there any technical limitation that whole boot screnn isnt more colored ?22:12
apacheloggersheytan_: actually you can play with it yourself ^^22:12
apacheloggerhttp://paste.kde.org/689108/22:12
apacheloggerif you comment out the stuff with // and add the  Window.SetBackgroundTopColor instead you can define a solid color22:13
apacheloggeror gradient22:13
apacheloggeras you want22:13
apacheloggersoee: not in the best case22:13
apacheloggersoee: there is a limitation with regards to background scaling, but that is about it22:14
apacheloggerin a perfectly supported system we have 32bit of colors to work with22:14
sheytan_apachelogger: http://wstaw.org/m/2013/03/06/test1_1.png22:16
apacheloggersheytan_: the stripe is animated?22:16
sheytan_yes22:16
apacheloggerhow?22:16
apacheloggermoving?22:16
sheytan_it slides from left to right22:16
sheytan_like a ring22:16
apacheloggerhmmmmmmm22:16
sheytan_and you see just a fron if that ring22:17
sheytan_front*22:17
apacheloggerright22:17
apacheloggerhm22:17
apacheloggermmmm22:17
sheytan_like this device that show's you how many energy you used at your home :D22:17
sheytan_know that one?22:17
sheytan_it has a spinning ring like that22:18
apacheloggeryep22:18
apacheloggersheytan_: the fact that the line changes hight and alpha makes this rather complicated though22:18
sheytan_if you use this line as one piece of artwork and keep it moving22:18
sheytan_i think that solved the animation22:18
sheytan_solves*22:19
apacheloggersheytan_: keep it moving?22:19
soeesheytan_, how hard/complex is do draw each letter outline and after all are visible fill them with some color ?22:19
sheytan_that's your idea22:19
apacheloggerplymouth is a 2d drawing space, we cannot actually map the line as texture onto a ring :)22:19
sheytan_nobody said it is hard22:19
sheytan_every time we have some limitation couse of plymouth22:20
sheytan_damn!22:20
apacheloggerwell22:20
apacheloggeryou have that limiation even in qml1 :P22:20
apacheloggerand qml2 unless you write a shader22:20
apacheloggerthing is22:20
sheytan_who ever made qml1 with that limitation22:20
apacheloggeryou have to simulat the 3dness22:20
sheytan_but why?22:20
sheytan_why make new language for UI's without 3d22:21
apacheloggerso you'd have to chop the line at the end into 1pixel wide pieces22:21
apacheloggersheytan_: shaders solve that22:21
apacheloggerif one speaks GL22:21
apachelogger...22:21
sheytan_if one speaks ;)22:21
apacheloggerand once we have pixel wide pieces we then can set animated transparency/opacity on each pixel-wide-piece22:22
apacheloggerthus making it look like it's moving22:22
apacheloggerI think anyway22:22
apachelogger<- not exactly a 3d guru22:22
apacheloggerScottK, yofel: http://wstaw.org/m/2013/03/06/test1_1.png22:23
apacheloggersoee: wanna make a concept artwork for you thing?22:23
apacheloggeror does sheytan_ want to?22:23
sheytan_nope22:23
* apachelogger is all depressed over not having complete and coherent artwork at feature freeze22:23
soeeapachelogger, yes if i find some time i might prepare some concept22:24
* apachelogger sighs22:26
sheytan_apachelogger: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4388FjuLCA22:27
sheytan_fedora does this22:27
sheytan_that way22:27
sheytan_look ofc only at the bar under fedora logo22:28
apacheloggerthat's entirely written in c22:28
ScottKapachelogger: Not really.22:28
apacheloggerI give up22:28
yofelapachelogger: I could live with that22:29
yofelas long as the logo doesn't rotate there...22:29
sheytan_the boot time doesn't even take more than 10 sec22:30
sheytan_and on some machines you won't even get the right animation22:30
apacheloggeryofel: that sounds overly happy -.-22:30
sheytan_couse of broken drivers22:30
sheytan_so we're making it tooooooo important22:30
yofelapachelogger: it looks *good*22:30
yofeljust that the last example I saw with mini logo had a rotating one22:30
yofelwhich was urgh22:30
sheytan_apachelogger: let's just don't use any animations22:31
sheytan_and leave only the logo22:31
sheytan_with a solid background22:31
apacheloggerthat's crap too22:31
sheytan_but it doesn't matter22:31
apacheloggeryou need feedback22:31
apacheloggerfeedback is necesary22:31
* yofel wants usplash back -.-22:31
apacheloggeryeah22:31
apacheloggerusplash was so much better22:31
sheytan_eaither you get "crap" or you have to write good stuff in C22:31
apacheloggersheytan_: you have not made a proposal that requires C22:31
sheytan_i didn't know22:32
sheytan_it's still called plymouth ;)22:32
apacheloggeralso it's still 2d22:32
sheytan_anyway22:32
apacheloggerso a proposal that requires C better be outlining 2d algorithms22:32
apacheloggerotherwise that would be one month of work wasted over nothing22:32
yofelheck, what's *wrong*, with the last attempt?22:33
sheytan_i really think it's not that important22:33
apacheloggeryofel: ScottK doesn't like it apparently22:33
yofelanimate that line a bit and we would be fine22:33
yofel-.-22:33
sheytan_apachelogger: you can make each letter of 'kubuntu' appear separatly22:34
* ScottK is not a fan of the wiggling.22:34
ScottKThey could spin too.22:34
sheytan_and than put the logo above22:34
yofelbtw. are we "Kubuntu" or "kubuntu" now?22:34
yofelthat's like totally inconsistent22:34
sheytan_i don't know22:34
yofelour logo in kickoff says kubuntu22:35
apacheloggerI dunno22:36
sheytan_apachelogger: so what's the final decision?22:36
apacheloggerI should just fork and have nuno redo the entire thing22:36
apacheloggergetting overly pissed here22:36
sheytan_me too22:36
apacheloggersheytan_: dunno22:36
apacheloggersend a mail to devel22:36
apacheloggerwith all your mockups22:36
apacheloggersomeone can implement them22:36
sheytan_no body will22:37
apacheloggerI have no interest in pursuing this any further22:37
sheytan_we know that22:37
yofelmy head is spinning...22:37
sheytan_already22:37
apacheloggerfor all I care the entire boot experience can remain crappy22:37
yofelcan you put *something* consistent in please?22:37
sheytan_it's really not worth, to don't care about what we did for ldm and splash, to not have any plymouth stuff22:38
yofelI already don't care what22:38
sheytan_just make a solid background with kubuntu logo22:38
sheytan_that's all22:38
sheytan_or add the previous dot's22:38
sheytan_dots22:38
sheytan_from the last release of kubuntu22:38
sheytan_what will work22:38
sheytan_nobody cares anyway about magic boot animations, couse they don't take hours to watch them like a movie22:39
sheytan_we're not windows with 'checking registry settings' taking a whole day to be done22:39
* sheytan_ is going to sleep. bye.22:43

* apachelogger sighs23:45
apacheloggeryou know23:45
apacheloggerI hate the web23:45
apacheloggerlike I really hate it23:45
apacheloggerlike I hate just about all people who do anything on the web23:45
apacheloggerbecause they are dumb and don't know that they are dumb and no one tells them that they are dumb and so they continue to be dumb23:45
* keithzg may be dumb, but at least is fully cognizant of that fact!23:46
apacheloggerJontheEchidna: ping23:49
JontheEchidnaapachelogger: pong23:49
apacheloggerwill we get pay-for apps in MSC?23:49
apacheloggerlike ever?23:49
apacheloggeror perhaps even 13.04? :)23:50
JontheEchidnalol not that soon23:50
apacheloggerawww :(23:50
apacheloggerwhat's the holdup23:50
JontheEchidnaIt's in the works for 2.1 tho23:50
JontheEchidnaI only just started on supporting that like a week ago :s23:50
apacheloggerah, fair enough23:50
apacheloggerJontheEchidna: another thing... what would you say if I proposed removal of the muon package manager from the default install?23:50
apacheloggeri.e. only ship MSC23:51
JontheEchidnawell more like 2 weeks ago, but I've been working on getting 2.0 out the door...23:51
JontheEchidnaI think having a fully-featured tool for manipulating packages is an important thing to have, personally23:52
apacheloggerI'd be had pressed to argue with that in absence of an actual description of our target audience :P23:53
apacheloggerhowever I do believe that people who wish to have such an interface are probably able to get it installed23:54
JontheEchidnaI suppose23:54
apachelogger<keithzg> Didn't want to intrude on actual #kubuntu-devel discussion, but apachelogger I'd like to chime in that at least one standard Kubuntu user (myself) appreciates having a fully-featured packaged manager GUI out of the box. Moreover, I have seen the lack thereof confuse folks.23:56
apachelogger<keithzg> Admittedly this is basically one data point (ie. anecdotal evidence I've directly observed or have an opnion on).23:56
apacheloggerkeithzg: everyone is welcome to contribute an opinion23:56
apacheloggerand I realise that this is a perfectly valid use cases and it is why I said that I'd be hard pressed to argue against since we have no clear statement from which we can deduce whether or not it is a use case we should/want to support23:57
apacheloggerFWIW, the idae just came up because I had watched a video review that claimed it to be confusing to have 2 applications essentially doing the same 23:58
apacheloggerwhich is probably true and it also somewhat goes against our general purpose policy of not introducing applications that do the same thing23:59
