I can test core trunk, but not in the *real* conditions [09:48] but if you have any additional magic scripts for me they are wellkommen [09:50] I have written some for auto-updating/compiling/installing Unity/nux/libunity&co, but those are pretty standard... === Marlinc_ is now known as Marlinc [10:51] MCR_: so, you don't need to replace your installation [10:51] MCR_: what I'm asking is if you can install the branch *locally* along with unity (eg to ~/apps/ as the prefix) [10:51] and then test that [10:52] I don't see how that creates problems for your setup [10:59] smspillaz, try to install additional lenses and scopes and you'll notice ;) [11:00] MCR_: I don't see why that has anything to do with testing the wall plugin [11:00] that is true [11:00] the whole point is that you create a separate installation so that you can test things [11:00] but it is not *really* needed in this case [11:01] you say it works [11:01] MCR_: well, did you want to test my changes or not? [11:01] code looks good [11:01] its currently blocked on someone else testing them ... so ........ [11:01] I'll test it once it lands in trunk [11:01] MCR_: have a look to see if you can test it within the next three days [11:01] theres no rush [11:01] what is the problem ? [11:01] *shrug* just some testing would be good [11:02] if you tested it... [11:02] ... from someone else ... [11:02] and I promise to test it once it lands [11:02] with all the goodies I have enabled [11:02] MCR_: well, in any case, you're going to be in a position where you'll need to test core changes [11:02] I will immediately report any problems [11:02] I suggest that you look into building a separate installation [11:02] I know how to do it, do not worry [11:03] ... then do it? [11:03] I just do not *like* to do it, when it is not strictly necessary [11:03] I have to go in the virtual console [11:03] no you dont [11:03] oh [11:04] PATH=/path/to/prefix/ compiz --replace ccp & [11:04] done. [11:04] in a gnome-terminal or whatever [11:04] whot ? [11:04] MCR_: you don't need to launch from a vt [11:05] I always used Daniel's version: https://answers.launchpad.net/compiz/+question/203490 [11:05] but then for example my CCSM settings get all messed up [11:05] Compiz runs without Unity and so on [11:05] so that's one way of doing it [11:05] "ccp" loads the compizconfig plugin which will pull in all your settings [11:06] including plugin lists [11:06] so to test in a *real* environment a lot is needed and as I said if you have Unity lenses, scopes which are not in the unity source you are f*cked also [11:06] MCR_: It will be quite rare when you run into a situation where you need the lenses installed for local testing [11:07] it is enough to try to open the dash to make everything crash then [11:07] in any case, you can build packages of compiz pretty much instantly [11:07] because unity gets confused [11:07] just debuild in the compiz director [11:07] it will create deb packages [11:07] debuild [11:07] anyways, I need to go to dinner, but look into getting that local installation working for doing local tests [11:07] that is all that is needed to build all packages ? [11:07] it will pay off in the long term, trust me [11:08] MCR_: sudo apt-get build-dep compiz unity [11:08] the good thing about inline packaging is that you can literally just debuild in the source dir and it will make a package for you [11:08] which you can install with dpkg [11:08] anyways, gotta run [11:08] c ya === me4oslav_ is now known as me4oslav === Pendulum_ is now known as Pendulum === wgrant is now known as Guest43647 === commandoline_ is now known as commandoline === Trevinho_ is now known as Trevinho
