RAOFpitti: Hey, say I was running adt-run locally with adt-virt-schroot and the autopkgtest was failing with no useful error, how would I log in to the schroot it's using to diagnose?06:13
pittiRAOF: I suggest you schroot into the target manually, and within that, run adt-run with adt-virt-null06:14
jibelgood morning06:43
darkxstpitti, any idea why the list of installed languages from accountsservice is much smaller, than 'locale -a'?06:54
pittidarkxst: locale -a has lots of locales for the same lang07:12
pittidarkxst: there are some 10 English locales (UK, US, New Zealand, and so on)07:13
darkxstpitti, yes I saw 10+ english from locale -a (and SUPPORTED) but only about 5 from accountsservice07:13
darkxstand I have no way to filter those dupes out of the SUPPORTED list, however I guess other languages mostly shouldnt be too bad.07:14
pittiwhy not? just split at the first _ ?07:15
darkxstpitti, really doesnt fit the current UI07:15

Laneyyeah, three day one, was very fine thanks :-)08:10
Laneywhat about you? good mini holiday?08:10
seb128yeah, I was planning to still check emails and do some stuff but I finally didn't and it was good to have some days off work ;-)08:11
mlankhorsthehe mini holiday was great :)08:11
seb128the weather was also ok for most of the w.e (though with some rains in between and wind yesterday)08:11
seb128hey mlankhorst08:12
mlankhorsta little, I was lucky, when I was outside it was dry the entire time08:12
mlankhorstexcept thursday, I got stuck in a lightning storm on my bike08:12
Laneyexciting08:12
mlankhorsta great way to get soaked to the bone in a random village08:12
mlankhorst:D08:12
Laneywe had lots of quite strong showers over the weekend08:13
Laneyhid out in the library for a couple of hours08:13
mlankhorstI just crossed a canal, I could suddenly see beyond some homes08:13
mlankhorstand I was like.. best do the next 10 km real fast even if it's against the wind..08:13
Laneyheh08:14
mlankhorstthen after it was gone, the wind was gone too!08:14
mlankhorstwhich made me sad, if it stayed I would have made it home a lot faster08:14

gesergiven a package (razorqt) synced from Debian which build-depends on liblightdm-qt-dev (doesn't exist in Ubuntu): is replacing this build-dependency with liblightdm-qt-3-dev and have pkg-config check for liblightdm-qt-3 (instead of liblightdem-qt-2) the right "fix" to let the package build?08:32
Laneygeser: perhaps make it check for both, as a more upstreamable fix08:34
Laneyassuming it works with both, that is08:34
geserLaney: it builds at least with those changes08:36
* Laney nods08:36
Laneyshould be easy to change it to build with either08:37
geseryes, my patch to CMakefile checks fist for -qt-3 now and falls back to -qt-2 if the first isn't found (like it already does with -qt-1 if -qt-2 isn't found)08:38

seb128sil2100, cyphermox_, Mirv: hey, do you guys know why we didn't have daily landing of the indicator stack recently?14:06
sil2100seb128: you mean raring or head?14:07
seb128sil2100, saucy14:07
seb128so trunk I guess14:07
sil2100seb128: would have to check, as cyphermox_ is the maintainer of the indicator stack14:07
Laneycyphermox told me it would be disabled for some time until something gets merged14:08
sil2100Maybe it's the same as with unity, i.e. UTAH problems with autopilo ttesting14:08
Laneyforgot what though ...14:08
sil2100Ah, right, maybe we already have disabled the indicator stack14:08
sil2100Laney might be right14:08
LaneyI was hassling him in Oak to do a release and he did a manual one for me14:08
sil2100seb128: since there were plans to disable daily-build of indicators until the /phablet branches are not merged in14:10
seb128sil2100, is overlay-scrollbar in the indicator stack?14:10
sil2100seb128: I think it was in the misc stack when I last seen it14:11
sil2100cyphermox_: you re-enabled the unity-gtk-module for the unity stack already btw.?14:11
sil2100cyphermox_: I see you did, ok14:12
sil2100cyphermox_: since currently as things are the integration tests for unity-gtk-module won't test unity-gtk-module at all14:12
sil2100seb128: yep, it's in the misc stack in head14:13
Laneybzr branch lp:cupstream2distro-config is helpful for questions like that14:13
sil2100cyphermox_: I didn't want to re-enable it yet because the integration tests don't test what they need to right now, they just test the standard appmenu-gtk features - but no worries, at least it shouldn't block anything14:14
seb128Laney, I admit I'm just being lazy there, I was trying to have an answer to "why aren't the stack landing in saucy" without having to spend 15 minutes browsing jenkins and logs ;-)14:16
Laneyheh14:16
seb128I though sil2100 or cyphermox_ would know ;-)14:17
seb128cyphermox_, we need that overlay-scrollbar fix you did in saucy to unblock gtk 3.814:17
sil2100Yep, you can use us as much as you want while we're here ;)14:17
sil2100seb128: what fix is that?14:18
sil2100seb128: as I am maintaining the misc stack, I could maybe push it further14:18
Laneyjust looked at that MP, says there's still issues14:18
seb128sil2100, https://code.launchpad.net/~mathieu-tl/overlay-scrollbar/fix-second-use/+merge/16250714:18
seb128Laney, oh, right14:18
seb128I only tested the vertical scrolling (I'm not even sure where to find something that scroll horizontally)14:19
* seb128 tries14:19
seb128Laney, btw did you see my glib ping before? I just got disconnected from IRC after, not sure if it went through (I didn't see your reply if you added one)14:19
Laneyno, didn't get one14:19
seb128Laney, the clutter-gst-2.0 cogl 1.10 b-d, was it needed or did you just want to force a recent enough cogl version? (that's our only diff with debian atm)14:19
seb128dah14:19
seb128wrong history pick14:19
Laneyif it's "want to do the update?" then the answer is that it's on my list :-)14:20
seb128Laney, btw upstream just rolled out a tarball for glib 2.36.2, can you take care of it (or ask if pochu wants to do it ... do we still need that small diff over debian?)14:20
Laneypitti was pinging about the diff earlier though, so maybe he is doing it14:20
Laneyand yes it is still necessary14:20
pittiyeah, we still need that diff14:20
seb128pitti, ^14:20
seb128pitti, are you doing the update?14:20
Laneyunless we want to fix wanna-build14:20
pittiI still need to roll a new pygobject tarball today and have a meeting, so not today14:21
seb128no hurry, anyway between you and Laney to sort out14:21
seb128thanks guys ;-)14:21
LaneyI think pochu was planning something around glib anyways14:21
Laneymaking tests fatal on all arches14:21
pittiyay bsd and hurt14:21
Laneyah, already in svn14:22
pittierr, hurd, but "hurt" is rather descriptive, too14:22
Laneydoesn't affect us for ubuntu of course, but it does make me reluctant to update in debian ...14:22

pittithey were working last week still, but now ffox says the plugin isn't installed (but it is)15:10
pitti(meeting going on for 10 mins already..)15:10
chrisccoulsonpitti - oh, i've not tried it. where is the plugin installed?15:10
pitti/usr/lib/firefox/plugins/, plus a dozen symlinks15:11
chrisccoulsonpitti, oh, that's not going to work15:12
pittiit was until last week15:12
chrisccoulsonpitti, yeah, it won't work with the new version, as it's moved to /usr/lib/firefox/browser/plugins15:13
chrisccoulsonnobody should be using that directory15:13
chrisccoulsonit should be in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins15:13
pittichrisccoulson: that's one of the locations it's symlinked to15:16
chrisccoulsonpitti, is it google plus or firefox that says the plugin isn't installed? (ie, is it listed in about:plugins)15:18
chrisccoulsonit's listed here15:18
pittichrisccoulson: I don't see it in about:plugins15:18
chrisccoulsonpitti - what about if you enter "Components.classes["@mozilla.org/plugin/host;1"] .getService(Components.interfaces.nsIPluginHost).reloadPlugins(false)" in to the error console and then restart?15:20
chrisccoulsonactually, the restart should be unnecessary15:21
pittichrisccoulson: how do I get the error console?15:21
chrisccoulsonpitti, is it not in the Tools -> Web Developer menu?15:22
pittiah, it is (I never used it)15:22
