shadeslayerScottK: "I read this proposal and took my time to well think about and well... this idea is just stupid. Should I add more? Yes. I surely won't port rekonq to this "ubuntu-webkit".01:22
shadeslayerfrom Andrea01:22
ScottKshadeslayer: What if it's a matter of using current webkit and then just not porting away from it?  I think that's what's intended is more API stability, not different API.02:32

shadeslayerthe fixed kwinrc is only in bzr, and hasn't been released06:36
shadeslayerhttp://bazaar.launchpad.net/~kubuntu-packagers/kubuntu-settings/kubuntu-settings/view/head:/desktop/share/config/kwinrc06:36
shadeslayerthough I don't know what state the branch is in, so I won't upload it right now, maybe when apachelogger is around 06:37
shadeslayerheh06:40
shadeslayermgraesslin: hi, I *just* commented on the 2x Desktops bug06:41
shadeslayeronly the package has the bug, bzr is fine06:41
mgraesslinso it just needs rebuilding?06:41
shadeslayerjust needs me to upload from bzr06:42
shadeslayerhttp://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/raring/kubuntu-settings/raring/view/head:/desktop/share/config/kwinrc is the package in the archive vs http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~kubuntu-packagers/kubuntu-settings/kubuntu-settings/view/head:/desktop/share/config/kwinrc which is in bzr06:42
mgraesslinshadeslayer: remove the complete group06:43
shadeslayeroh okay06:43
mgraesslinthere's no need to ship hardcoded Number=106:43
shadeslayermgraesslin: done06:46
mgraesslinthat's fast06:46
shadeslayerwell, I haven't uploaded it to the archive06:48
shadeslayerbecause I have no idea if it's in an uploadable state or not06:48
shadeslayerprobably in the evening06:48

smartboyhwWhy does notes.kde.org require KDE Identity!?11:36
shadeslayerit's tied into etherpad lite11:37
shadeslayerplus, making an i.k.o account is trivial11:38
smartboyhwAnyway got in it now:P11:38
* smartboyhw has forgotten completely his KDE Identity account11:38
shadeslayerapachelogger: when you get back can you check if kubuntu-settings can be uploaded from bzr11:39

Riddellmurthy: fancy taking on that request for nootka ?12:43
smartboyhwRiddell, what nootka?12:44
Riddellsmartboyhw: a music programme13:00
smartboyhwRiddell, trying to build here13:01
Riddellsmartboyhw: guy just e-mailed kubuntu-devel, if you want it then assign the bug to you or something13:01
smartboyhwBut clearly some of his dependencies in README doesn't exactly match the package names in Ubuntu13:01
Riddellall part of the job of a packager13:02
smartboyhwRiddell, :)13:02
soop_de_woopcould somebody rename a file and upload it for me to download?13:05

soop_de_woopschool server blocks anything that contains the word "proxy"13:07
smartboyhw!?13:08
smartboyhwRiddell, so the package version for nootka should be what?13:10
Riddellsmartboyhw: um the same as upstream?13:10
smartboyhwRiddell, so 0.8.60-beta?13:11
* smartboyhw does not know if 0.8.60-beta > 0.8.60 or not13:11

Riddellooh big buttons13:40
RiddellI'd go for 113:40
isaqueagateau, I'll go for 2, the differences are more... different :)13:43
apacheloggerblah13:45
apacheloggerso uesless13:45
apacheloggershadeslayer: are we ui frozen yet? if so, no.13:45
apacheloggeralso stuff needs to be removed13:45
apacheloggeras sheytan apparently doesn't want to send a mail :(13:45
ScottKagateau: I think #2 makes the distinction clearer, but the reference to Oxygen there will be a bit confusing for people who aren't versed in the details of KDE.13:46
soeeis it possible to configure terminal to use colors (when listing direcotory to color different file types, when using grep to color search term) ?13:47
agateauScottK: indeed13:47
agateauScottK: I should be able to remove it13:48
ScottKIn that case, I pick #2.13:48
ScottKIt might be cool to slap the Kubuntu logo/name on there instead, if you can.13:48
RiddellScottK: I was thinking that but derivatives wouldn't appreciate it13:51
ScottKThey already have to replace stuff, so how big a deal is it?13:52
ScottKOur branding is pretty minimal, but that seems like a nice place for it.13:53
ScottKIt would probably be a helpful thing to write up a README.derivatives to point people at what needs changing.13:53
agateaudo we have a decent kubuntu logo in svg format?13:54
agateaudamn, the usb svg has been created with adobe illustrator, inkscape refuses to open it :/13:55
Riddellagateau: KubuntuArtwork on wiki13:57
Riddellagateau: ug, really?13:58
agateauRiddell: yes, quite a few of the mention illustrator in the comments, but inkscape opens them13:58
agateauRiddell: ahah, fixed it!14:01
agateaunothing like editing an svg with vim for some good fun14:01

soeeis it possible to compile mysql workbench against libctemplate2 ?14:21
ScottKIt would have to get moved from Universe to Main.14:25
ScottKSo not for 13.04, but it could be discussed for 13.10.14:25

xnoxScottK: is agateau getting UIFe and FFe for all the changes landing into ubiquity recently?15:29
* xnox has some u1 bling bling to land =)15:29
ScottKxnox: giving out an exception for one thing doesn't mean another thing gets it too.15:30
xnoxScottK: sure, it's just I want to see some UIFe and/or FFe going forward, and not just +1 on #kubuntu channels which other members of ubuntu release team might not be monitoring.15:32
xnoxgranted it's easier for qt frontend as only one flavour is using it.15:33
ScottKxnox: I certainly agree that the FFe ought to be filed and evaluated.  I haven't seen one from agateau yet, but I'm sure we will.15:34
xnoxthanks.15:34
xnoxe.g. I need to make a ubiquity-gtk upload to drop compiz from supported WindowManager to bring back metacity. Visually there is no difference, but we had a lot of crashes with compiz, which locks up input. Installer is workable but one cannot type anything.15:36
xnoxnow the branch already has a  few agateau tweaks.15:37
ScottKOK.15:37
ScottKagateau: Can you put together an FFe to request for the changes you've already landed?15:37
xnoxi think they are mostly bug-fixes level, but I'm not sure now. I don't boot / run kubuntu.15:37
ScottK(if there are any feature changes)15:38
xnoxScottK: if one is required. I just don't know.15:38
ScottKRight.15:38
Riddellchanges in 2.13.18 are all bug fixes so far15:38
agateauScottK: I don't think I landed any new feature15:38
Riddelllp:~agateau/ubiquity/kde-rework-try-install-buttons will need a UI freeze exception15:38
agateauScottK: but todays icon change needs uife15:38
ScottKagateau: Is that merged already?15:39
agateauScottK: no it's not15:39
agateauScottK: but I already filed a merge request15:39
ScottKxnox: ^^^ I think what's already landed is bug fix, so you're not blocked on a FF/UIFe.15:39
ScottKOK.15:39
ScottKShould probably do the UIF/FFe request first.15:40
agateauok15:40
agateauScottK: I was also considering altering the sidebar background image, because it looks a bit too similar to latest suse installer... can I file a separate uife for that or is it too late anyway?15:42
ScottKNot too late to ask I don't think.15:42
agateauok15:47

xnoxagateau: ScottK: Riddell: what are QML plans for ubiquity? Do we have python-qt5 now? And can we for example start a qml frontend and implement bits and pieces? (For example start with pages only relevant to oem-config mode)16:42
agateauxnox: no plans on my side for now16:43
xnoxWould you mind using ubuntu-touch components for some of it? Or will that just end up in having two qml frontends (ubuntu and kubuntu)?16:43
Riddellxnox: we've no current plans to port to QML, I think it would be fun to have that done16:45
agateauxnox: honestly, I am not looking forward writing a new frontend on top of the current state of the backend16:46
Riddellthere's no PyQt5 yet, would be an idea to check up on upstream's plans for that16:47
xnoxRiddell: for example i'd be interested at working on the oem-config pages, (which will be the bulk of stuff, i.e the frame and logic), not so much about the kubuntu installer.16:47
xnoxagateau: you mean the PageQt clases or ubiquity base classes/logic on top of debconf?16:48
agateauxnox: yes16:48
xnoxagateau: which one or both?16:48
Riddellxnox: I don't think ubuntu-touch has much we're allergic to in it, it's just quite large (20MB install here)16:49
agateauxnox: I drew a diagram of the way the various classes work together and it felt quite over-engineered16:49
agateauxnox: and I highly dislike the fact that all frontend code must be written in the same file (for plugins)16:50
xnoxagateau: well we can change plugin loader to load them from some other place. it's just conveniet from top level architecture to find & order all plugins in the same way and pick the right class for a given frontend.16:52
xnoxw.r.t. the rest of classes, yeah it is overwhelming at first. But I also didn't have clear ideas on how to make it easier either.16:52
agateauhaving everything in one class means it is painful to search in the file, as you often end up in parts of the code you are not working on16:53
agateauit also means imports must be done in functions rather than at top level16:53
agateaubut I think what really annoys me the most is how difficult the thing is to test16:54
xnoxwith unit test - or "please load this one page and let me click on it"16:55
agateauunit tests would be nice, but I would love to have a fake backend which would allow me to run the frontend on my machine without having to rsync my code to a vm16:57
* agateau has to go now17:07
ScottKxnox: Qt5 based packages can be built using PyQt4, but they don't support new Qt5 features.  Patches welcome for PyQt4.17:26

murthyRiddell: did nootka got packaged?17:28
=== yofel_ is now known as yofel
murthyseems smartboyhw has assigned nootka packaging to himself17:30
xnoxScottK: i'm confused. Do you mean pyqt works with qt5 only by extension of common/unchanged/compatible modules between qt4 & 5?17:31
ScottKxnox: I haven't studied things in detail.  Upstream has said new features of Qt5 aren't supported in PyQt4, but will have to wait for PyQt5, which is apparently in work.  I've expended zero effort so far figuring out what exactly they mean by that.17:33
