lordievaderHey yofel, how are you?07:58
yofellordievader: back at work, otherwise well ;)08:00
smartboyhwHello!08:01
lordievaderGood to hear, yofel. Hey smartboyhw, how are you doing?08:05
smartboyhwlordievader: Good. Came back from first day after school.08:06

shadeslayeryofel: vHanda tells me http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~kubuntu-packagers/kubuntu-packaging/nepomuk-core/view/head:/debian/patches/kubuntu_strigi_ram_detection.diff won't work08:13
shadeslayernepomukstrigiservice is no more08:13
vHandasince 4.8 actually08:13
yofelcan we drop it then?08:13
vHandaIf you want to fix it then you need to change the "nepomukstrigiservice" to "nepomukfileindexer"08:13
shadeslayer^^08:14
vHandaThe patch disables the file indexer for systems with less than 1 gb of ram08:14
vHandaI'm not sure if that is a good thing or bad08:14
ovidiu-florinif I may, I think it's a good thing08:16
smartboyhwWow a lot of leaving news today on Planet Ubuntu.08:17
smartboyhwjbicha leaving docs team, Ohio LoCo contact change + jono leaving for holidays in Australia.08:17
shadeslayernot much actual leaving there :P08:18
smartboyhwshadeslayer: leaving doesn't mean permanently:P08:45

yofeldoes the akonadi nepomuk feeder actually work for someone?09:52
yofelit doesn't here09:52
kubotu::qt-bugs:: [1166102] Cannot mix incompatible Qt library @ https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1166102 (by Mohamed IKBEL Boulabiar)09:53
jussiyofel: what is that? 09:58
yofeljussi: not exactly sure, I think it's what manages the email indexer for example09:59
jussiyofel: so what are the signs it "works" or "doesnt work" ?10:00
yofelthe issue in the thread was that mail address auto-completion stopped working10:00
yofeland here the feeder says "Nepomuk is not operational: Nepomuk is not running"10:01
yofelwhile nepomuk *IS* enabled, and the file indexer works fine10:01
jussioh. Ive never had autocompletion working, except for recent addresses... ever10:01
* yofel -> lunch10:01
yofelmore debugging later10:01
ovidiu-florinI'm curious about something, do you guys work for kubuntu or kde, or an organization that supports kubuntu or kde? or do you have other jobs and lots of free time? how do you manage?10:03
smartboyhw_ovidiu-florin: Whoa that's complex. I think Riddell is employed by Blue Systems (originally it was Canonical, but they quit sponsoring Kubuntu) to make Kubuntu nice. (Maybe wrong)10:06
ovidiu-florinI've also read that somewhere10:06
smartboyhw_For others, we just are contributors. Spending our free time in this.10:06
ovidiu-florinhow come you have so much free time?10:06
smartboyhw_ovidiu-florin:Not me:P10:07
smartboyhw_I only contribute after school.10:07
ovidiu-florinmay I ask, smartboyhw_ how old are you?10:08
smartboyhw_ovidiu-florin: 1410:08
shadeslayerovidiu-florin: I'm employed by Blue Systems as well, to work on Kubuntu/KDE10:09
shadeslayer@_@10:09
shadeslayerQuintasan: you're no longer the youngest10:09
smartboyhw_shadeslayer I dunno that much.10:09
smartboyhw_shadeslayer: LOL10:09
ovidiu-florinwho is the youngest?10:09
ovidiu-florin(how old?)10:10
smartboyhw_We do have quite some people in the community that are 14-15 (even 13)10:10
smartboyhw_James Grifford, an Ask Ubuntu mod, is 16.10:11
smartboyhw_Josee Antonio Rey, the Ubuntu On Air guy, is 15.10:11
ovidiu-florinthat makes me feel very old10:11
smartboyhw_Doak Jackson, a QA contributor, is of the same age as me.10:12
smartboyhw_Amith KK, a really high-rep guy in Ask Ubuntu and is a developer of the Unity Tweak Tool, is 13 (or 14)10:12
smartboyhw_See?10:12
ovidiu-florinoh, the odacity. Why did I not discover this durring highschool?10:13
smartboyhw_Thankfully we don't have elderly.. 10:13
ovidiu-florinsmartboyhw_: what do you mean by that?10:13
Riddellovidiu-florin: I've just answered an e-mail from someone who wants to help out and says "I am 76; I have worked through computers from valves to transistors as programmer"10:16
Riddellso it takes all ages :)10:16
ovidiu-florinI was hoping for that10:18
yofelovidiu-florin: I have a day job unrelated to kubuntu, I just spend most of my free time here10:21
jussiovidiu-florin: Im 31, on the KC and have a day job that is not for Kubuntu, although the company I work for does create linux based emedded systems10:22
ovidiu-florinyofel: what about time to spend with the family?10:22
ovidiu-florinshadeslayer Riddell if you are hired to work on kubuntu/kde do you work on a specific part or you are mostly overseeing how the progress works?10:24
jussiovidiu-florin: shadeslayer works on kde telepathy... mostly because I would shoot him if he ever abandoned it :P :P :P :P :P10:26
* jussi hugs shadeslayer10:26
yofelovidiu-florin: well, I'm still single so that helps ;P. I don't go out that often either, but for the rest, it's not like you see me here all the time (or when you do quassel nicely hides where I am)10:27
* ovidiu-florin remembered he had a question about telepathy and kopete10:27
* ovidiu-florin does not want to change the subject yet, so he postpones the question10:28
Riddellovidiu-florin: I work on anything that's needed10:29
Riddellboy/girlfriends are a big limiting factor for free software :)10:30
ovidiu-florin:))10:30
ScottKChildren too.10:31
ovidiu-florin:(10:31
=== ubott2 is now known as ubottu
* ScottK is down to one at home, so it's less of an issue now.10:32
Riddelluntil you teach those children how to help out :)10:32
ovidiu-florinI had an ideea on how I could combine free software and alos make money and have time for the family10:32
ovidiu-florinbut I'm not sure yet if it could work10:33
ScottKRiddell: True.  Daughter #2 is now studying information technology at University, so there's hope.  She's doing something with C++ this semester.10:33
ovidiu-florinwhat is your opinion, is kubuntu ready for use in schools and work?10:34
ovidiu-florinif yes, than my ideea could work.10:34
ovidiu-florinI'm using kubuntu at work but I've had many problems with it and I'm not that sure that other people might not, or even be so patient with it to fix the problems10:35
yofelwe need more help on the Q/A side, otherwise I don't see why not10:35
yofelwth. just restarting the akonadi nepomuk feeder agent makes it work...10:36
yofelneed to watch this on next reboot10:36
shadeslayerovidiu-florin: I'm more or less making sure packaging is fine, some automation work, some kde work10:36
shadeslayera bit of everything :P10:36
ovidiu-florinmy idea is to start a company that will offer support and training on KDE/Kubuntu. The OS and applications are free but the training and support are not.10:37
ovidiu-florinI believe I'm not the first with this idea. 10:38
ovidiu-florinbut I have not seen it implemented anywhere.10:38
shadeslayeryou'll need to get a copyright exemption from Canonical I think10:38
shadeslayerRiddell knows more10:38
ovidiu-florinshadeslayer: for what?10:38
shadeslayerovidiu-florin: to start the support/training thing10:39
shadeslayers/copyright/trademark/10:39
kubotushadeslayer: You did something wrong... Try s/you/me/ or tell me "help sed"10:39
ovidiu-florinI was thinking that I just need the Kubuntu councils approval10:39
ovidiu-florinand the same for kde10:40
shadeslayerdunno, there's some company that was going to provide support for kubuntu, and they had to ask for a Trademark exemption or sth with Canonical10:41
smartboyhw_ScottK: I am a child…10:42
ovidiu-florinshadeslayer: and what happened to them?10:42
shadeslayerstill waiting on Canonical for some paperwork I think10:43
ScottKshadeslayer: I think that they chose to do so because it reduced their business risk.  I also think Canonical believes you have to ask, but I also think they are wrong.10:46
shadeslayerI see10:46
ScottKsmartboyhw_: Yes, but you are not getting in the way of your parent's contributions.  10:46
ScottKThat's my challenge.10:46
smartboyhw_ah lol10:47
Riddell"Adam Conrad (adconrad) renewed their own membership in the Kubuntu Members (kubuntu-members) team until 2014-04-14" cor infinity still loves us10:48
smartboyhw_Whoa!10:48
Riddellovidiu-florin: of course kubuntu is ready for schools and work, the world's biggest linux desktop rollout is Kubuntu in every school in Brazil10:49
smartboyhw_Riddell: What's infinity's history in Kubuntu?10:49
smartboyhw_Back.10:51
smartboyhw_Riddell: Any replies?10:51

* smartboyhw finds that the 4 candidates for KC election are all approved during 2010-201111:36
smartboyhwand clearly, there were much less people approved for 2012.11:36
smartboyhwapproved = membership11:36
smartboyhwDuh:(11:37
Tm_Tsmartboyhw: KC election?11:38
smartboyhwTm_T, yep. You don't know that!?11:38
Tm_Tsmartboyhw: are you talking about kubuntu council or something else?11:38
smartboyhwTm_T, Kubuntu Council:)11:39
Tm_Tsmartboyhw: with memberships you mean kubuntu membership?11:40
* smartboyhw doesn't know anything having a KC abbreviation except Kubuntu Council11:41
smartboyhwTm_T, yep.11:41
* smartboyhw really isn't clear this time11:41
smartboyhwOne reminder: NEVER use LibreOffice while updating packages.11:41
Tm_Thmm, rather good if ar nominees are rather new faces in that sense11:42
smartboyhwTm_T, er after the last Council candiadate approved for Kubuntu membership (yofel) there are only 7 new Kubuntu members. 11:43
Tm_Tsmartboyhw: aaah11:43
smartboyhwTm_T, yep:P11:44
Tm_Tbut this "smartboyhw finds that the 4 candidates for KC election are all approved during 2010-2011"11:44
smartboyhwTm_T, yep11:44
smartboyhwTm_T, yofel at EARLY 2011 (March)11:44
smartboyhwHe was approved at that time.11:44
Tm_Twould be rather sad if all candidates would be back from 2006-200711:44
smartboyhwTm_T, Grrr that I think will be for next year's election:P11:45
smartboyhwThe much more older generation :P11:45
Tm_Tsmartboyhw: reminds me of IRC team, many of us have been around since 2005 or so ...11:45
* yofel notes that we have 3 open seats and 4 candidates. So it's likely that you'll have one person apply next year ;)11:45
smartboyhwyofel, +1 though.11:46
* smartboyhw might run in 2015, who knows:P11:46
smartboyhwTm_T, that makes sense.11:46
Tm_Tsmartboyhw: why that late?11:46
smartboyhwTm_T, erm I am a NEW Kubuntu member. And I am quite young.11:46
smartboyhwNot good for leadership.11:46
Tm_Tone year is a long time11:46
Tm_Tand you're not alone in the council (:11:47
smartboyhwTm_T, erm then look at yofel and shadeslayer and valorie they all got aproved in 2010-2011 and they are running for the first time (I think, maybe not valorie) ...11:47
smartboyhwTm_T, :)11:47
Tm_Tand?11:47
Tm_Tdon't be like me and wait 5 years before stepping up for council11:48
smartboyhwTm_T,  you mean the IRC one?11:48
smartboyhwOr the Kubuntu one?11:48
Tm_Tsmartboyhw: in this case I'm referring to any council11:48
Tm_Tor any similar position11:48
smartboyhwTm_T, I mean in YOUR case where you ran for a certain council after 5 years11:49
smartboyhwYou said "don't be like me11:49
Tm_TI mean my activity was at its highest back in 2007-2008 or so, and I waited quite a long before stepping up11:49
smartboyhwTm_T, oh11:49
Tm_Tit's easy to wait too long and you find out you don't have all the time you used to have anymore11:51
smartboyhwTm_T, that's a +111:51
Tm_Tthis with life in general btw11:51
smartboyhwMaybe I should run in 2014, I'm not sure I can do anything in 2016.11:51
yofelshadeslayer: you're not by any chance familiar with the procedure to keep the last kernel installed after a release upgrade? (as we now auto-remove kernel < current_kernel-1)11:51
Tm_Twaiting a better moment that never comes (:11:51
smartboyhwThe public exam:(11:51
yofelshadeslayer: that's what fails on http://yofel.dyndns.org/kubuntu/upgrade3/11:51
shadeslayeryofel: not really, no11:52
yofelhm...11:52
shadeslayerafaik there is a post-install script that removes the old kernels11:52
yofelaah, /etc/kernel/postinst.d/apt-auto-removal right11:56
shadeslayerindeedly11:57
yofelok, this seems sensible. It marks the running, and fresh kernel as not-auto-remove11:59
yofelas my test box already runs on 3.8.0, 3.5.0 obviously isn't whitelisted and gets removed making the test fail11:59
Quintasanshadeslayer: You have to do precise backports12:04
QuintasanI'm totally ill12:04
QuintasanI felt like crap yesterday and though it was just me being tired from the conference but I guess not12:06

Riddellug, this kubuntu install was an ubuntu unity install and now whenever I look at a web page in firefox it says "do you want to install google calendar" or whatever, no explanation of what that means12:38
apacheloggerfor some reason I get the GTK upgrader12:38
apacheloggerlol12:38
smartboyhwRiddell, LOL It means the Unity Webapps12:39
lordievadersmartboyhw: Ugh my chromium install allways complains about that Unity Webapps thing. Luckily you can disable the plugin :)12:40
Riddelllordievader: yeah I noticed that too, so annoying12:40
Riddellevery time you look at a web page in chrome it complains about missing plugins12:40
Riddellcrazy12:40
smartboyhwRiddell, :)12:40
smartboyhwlordievader, :)12:40
lordievaderIts quite funny, on my own website the plugin tell me I need an additional plugin to view everything...12:41
smartboyhwlordievader, :O12:41
Riddellthe unity launcher seems slow too, open it and it just shows a spinning cursor for ages12:42
smartboyhwRiddell, ;P12:42
smartboyhwRiddell, that's why KDE exists!12:42
lordievaderRiddell: Since when are you using Unity?12:43
smartboyhwAnd all the other DEs.12:43
smartboyhwlordievader, yesterday I think. He installed vanilla Ubuntu to test something (dunno what it is)12:43
apacheloggerthat world view seems a bit off....12:43
Riddelllordievader: wanted to test if my printer got automatically set up12:43
Riddellwhich it doesn't in unity or kubuntu12:43
smartboyhwapachelogger, world view?12:43
smartboyhwRiddell, how old is your printer?12:43

apacheloggersmartboyhw: the other DEs being there because unity is shit12:44
smartboyhwapachelogger, +112:44
Riddellgosh, harsh, nuff flaming please12:45
apacheloggerwhat the view should be is that unity is there because canonical likes control12:45
smartboyhwYou guys do know what happened when a guy asked about why Studio doesn't use Unity? (Should 've mentioned it days ago)12:45

smartboyhwapachelogger, um we DO test upgrades. However I don't like testing it.14:13
smartboyhwIn Ubuntu Studio we almost want to dump the upgrade tests.14:13

apacheloggerjust haxx0r whatever package manager ui you use14:14
sreichso basically the advice is "reinstall"14:14
sreichaka like windows?14:14
smartboyhwsreich, yep. We aren't supposed to do that but...14:14
apacheloggerwindows does a really good job at upgrading itself!14:15
smartboyhwAnyway we rather want to work on better upgrades from 12.04 to 14.04 :P14:15
sreichi hope ;)14:15

smartboyhwapachelogger, we do want to implement some of that in 13.10, then make it perfect in 14.0414:19
apacheloggerthat does not mean 13.10 needs to be any sort of supported release14:20

apacheloggerbecause it's not LTS14:20
smartboyhwapachelogger, and why won't we support non-LTS releases?14:20
apachelogger<smartboyhw> Anyway we rather want to work on better upgrades from 12.04 to 14.04 :P14:21
apacheloggerthat's why14:21
smartboyhwapachelogger, um because we don't have that for 10.04 -> 12.04 already14:21
smartboyhwSo if we really don't go and improve upgrades we will get shot14:22
apacheloggerif you want LTS to rock then stop putting resources in stuff that does not improve LTS14:22
apacheloggerand having/supporting interim releases does absolutely nothing for LTS other than being a testing version of what will be the next LTS (in which case you'd still not want to support it as release)14:23
* Mamarok hates moinmoin with passion, their markup is really weird14:23
smartboyhwapachelogger, the strange thing is: People do like interim releases for a taster.14:24
apacheloggerMamarok: also it's slow 14:24
apacheloggersmartboyhw: that does not mean you need to support it14:24
apacheloggerthat also does not mean you need to actually give the an interim release full QA14:24
apacheloggerit's like when you develop some library14:24
apacheloggerand a release an alpha14:24
Mamarokyeah, dreadful, and there is no markup in kate for it, only mediawiki14:25
apacheloggeryou then do not start supporting that alpha and release alpha1.1 alpha1.2 alpha1.3 just to ensure people using alpha1 actually have no bugs14:25
smartboyhwapachelogger, well we don't do full QA:P We just do Beta 2 + final14:25
apacheloggerstill too much14:25
smartboyhwapachelogger, what's the point of doing an release while we don't support it?14:26
apachelogger[x] does it do full disk install with all default options [x] does it boot\n done.14:26
apacheloggersmartboyhw: I just explained that14:26
apacheloggerif you care about LTS14:26
apacheloggerthen an interim release is nothing but a alpha/beta of the LTS14:26
smartboyhwapachelogger, well then: Why care for LTS = no care for interim releases!?14:27
apacheloggeryou have limited amount of people, limited amount of people have limited time; support requires time; limited time - support time = development time; development time := time spent on making next version excel14:30
apacheloggerthe more time you spend supporting versions you do not care about the less time you have to spend on the versions you actually care about14:31
apacheloggerresult is that all versions are mediocre in quality and/or features and/or support14:31
smartboyhwExtremely quiet today.15:05

starbuck1well, it installed fine on another machine15:52
Quintasanphew15:52
Riddelland it didn't come up in testing at all15:52
Quintasanshadeslayer: our installer is python, isn't it?15:52
starbuck1hmmm15:53
shadeslayerQuintasan: yus15:53
shadeslayerneeds more testcases I say15:53
QuintasanI'd blame it on python then15:53
starbuck1another thing i noticed: if you are connected to the inetenret, the check first shows a green arrow, so its okay15:53
smartboyhwWhat happened?15:53
starbuck1then, if you waited for 30 seconds before htting "next", it did become red "X", and never green again, although i am pretty certain the internet was fine all along, since it is ethernet cable15:54
starbuck1pinging google at the same time showed nothing wrong15:54
starbuck1so after that, timezone, etc. was all not set right and had to be adjusted by me manually15:55
starbuck1on that other machine where it did install15:55
starbuck1maybe i have odd machines :/15:56
