ScottKRiddell: So plasma-widget-menubar only works on Qt stuff now?00:32
=== mydogsnameisrudy is now known as monkeyjuice
ScottKI just removed menubar.01:23
ScottKI think "here's a U/I widget, but only use it if you know that the app is written in Qt/KDE" is not user friendly.01:25
ScottKRiddell: owncloud done.  precise had 5.0.4, not 5.0.7, but I accepted it on the theory that it was progress.  Please let me know if that was wrong and either upload the newer one or I'll remove it.03:18

jussivalorie: make the icon/theme example picture clickable(in system settiings applications appearance, get more themes), so one can quickly see more detail without clicking through tot he web page. second, filter out those themes which do not have local hosted files, as to get rid of that html file download. (its very frustrating not being able to install stuff that is listed there)08:25

xnoxagateau: pong =)  but note i might be leaving soon.08:42
agateauxnox: ok :) quick question: I am working on writing a Kubuntu version of ubi-wireless. Is it possible to test the whole thing in a VM?08:45
xnoxagateau: not sure. the ubi-wireless for gtk, was tested/launched stand-alone, and simply talk to NM =) there is a script to just test the widget.08:45
agateauxnox: The only way i can think of right now is installing on a real machine, where I can toggle wireless on and off08:46
xnoxagateau: i think VirtualBox allows creating a "wifi" device, not so sure about kvm.08:46
agateauxnox: oh ok, I need to look into this then (I use virtualbox)08:48
agateauxnox: i also ran the widget standalone, but I need to test the whole thing at some point :)08:50
xnoxyeah. i am thinking to buy second laptop to do testing =)08:51
debfxI don't think you can create virtual wifi devices in virtualbox, except passing through real usb wifi adapters08:53
xnoxI can't wait for qt5.1 to be in the archive and start looking into porting ubiquity to qml / desktop components =) 08:54
apacheloggeryofel: did you ever backport cmake for neon?08:56
yofelkf5? no. I did backport it for neon4 precise once though08:57
apacheloggeryes, but how did you handle that?08:59
apacheloggerdid you simply backport as-is? or did you fiddle to install it into /opt?08:59
=== seaLne_ is now known as seaLne
yofelapachelogger: that was a straight backport of the next available version (we did the same for the backports too)09:10
apacheloggeryofel: so for newer cmake in raring for kf5 a straight backport would be the way to go I reckon09:17

jussiRiddell: Im thinking to have some shirts made - Polo shirts cost 19,5 € per shirt with the Kubuntu logo. (if we order 50). That would make ~1000€. If we sell them at 25€+PP that makes us 300€.  I have the shop all ready to go , the shop costs are 0.90€ per transaction plus 3% if people pay by credit card. I have a feeling we can find cheaper shirts though, still doing more investigation into that. Over all though, does it sound like a 12:11
jussigood Idea? 12:11
jussiIf we think its a good idea, I would like to request money from the kubuntu fund as seed capital, to buy the inital shirts. that money will then be paid back or used to buy more shirts or mugs or whatever. 12:12
jussiOnly other thing I need to look into is VAT and how that would work. 12:13
jussiRiddell: alternately, a slightly lower quality and only tshirt would come out a lot cheaper - approximately 300€ for 50 shirts. 12:18
jussi(Kubuntu logo only on the front left chest, white)12:19
jussiThats a current promotion -50%12:19
agateauRiddell: got some time to give https://code.launchpad.net/~agateau/ubiquity/kde-max-width/+merge/173744 and its sibling https://code.launchpad.net/~agateau/ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu/kde-max-width/+merge/173746 a bit of love?12:22
Riddellagateau: yeah I'll take a look shortly12:39
agateauRiddell: thanks12:39
Riddelljussi: sounds like an awesomeidea12:40
jussiRiddell: Ill do the investigation and sent results/my request to the kubuntu devel list - or is there some better way to move forward? 12:41
Riddelljussi: if they're sold by the kubuntu council I wouldn't worry about VAT, it's nowhere near the limit you need to care about it in the UK12:41
jussiRiddell: ahh yes, forgotten about that - its about 8k here also, so we dont have to worry12:41
Riddelljussi: that's a good way to go12:42
Riddelljussi: main thing that comes to mind is I don't have a good way of transfering money to the eurozone12:42
jussiRiddell: ok. I expect to have something done in the next few days12:42
jussiRiddell: a simple bank transfer would work, no? 12:42
Riddelljussi: it's not simple to transfer from Uk to eurozone in my experience12:43
Riddelljussi: but I have new online banking things here for the account, I'll try and get those working12:43
jussiRiddell: I beleive nowdays you only need the IBAN and maybe BIC codes. 12:44
jussiWHich I can supply you with both.12:44
jussiALternately, if you have some sort of credit card, we can arrange that you just buy the stuff and have it sent here12:45
Riddellwhen I tried to send money earlier this year from my personal account it would have cost £25 from one bank, another bank was £8 so I used them which needed many bits of information and it didn't work the money got returned less a random transaction cost12:45
Riddellyeah that would work12:45

Riddelljussi: looking at the order of polo shirts for uds last year "It will be £12.50 per poloshirt which will be a total of £250.00 for 20 of them."12:48
BluesKajRiddell, haven't been doing any dailiies since I'm updating /upgrading 13.10 most every day 12:49
jussiRiddell: yes, Ive just found this place that has them for 14.88€ - where did you order those? 12:49
Riddellwhich seems a lot cheaper, but postage to finland on top of that12:49
Riddelljussi: sports warehouse/superlogo in edinburgh12:49
jussiRiddell: ok12:49
Riddellthey have a website, probably not a great one12:49

ScottKRiddell: Did you see my question about the version of owncload for precise?13:19
RiddellScottK: yes, not sure what happened there, but there's a new version coming so I think I'll update for that anyway when it comes out13:21
ScottKOK.13:21
Riddellyofel, shadeslayer: can I copy 4.10.95 from staging to beta for raring?13:21
ScottKAlso, if you're letting stuff in, you might consider letting my kubuntu-meta and kubuntu-settings updates in.  I don't think a half working menubar makes sense.13:21
ScottKRiddell: ^^^13:22
RiddellI'm wondering if we should respin for this kmail bug13:22
yofelRiddell: I think yes, I retried kdepim-runtime i386 this morning which should be done by now13:23
Riddell"Add desktop/kdedrc deactivating phonon device change windows entirely." apachelogger how come you're maching phonon in kubuntu when it's not upstream?13:25
ScottKFound under the headline "RIP Computer Science": http://i.imgur.com/Wx91Z.jpg13:26
apacheloggerRiddell: because upstream I actually have to care about people not running PA13:26
apacheloggerScottK: lol13:27
RiddellScottK: farewell, we knew thee well13:27
RiddellScottK: doesn't the menubar stuff fall back to just using a normal menubar if it can't find the widget to use?13:29
RiddellScottK: isn't it sensible for netbook users to have the menubar applet for kde apps at least?13:29
ScottKOnly if you think it's reasonable for users to have to know the difference.13:29
ScottKIt does work that way, but it seemed to me that was sufficiently inconsistent that it should just go away.  I may be wrong.13:30
Riddellagateau: got an opinion since it's your baby?13:31
agateauRiddell: since Kubuntu does not ship gtk apps by default, i would say it makes sense to keep it, but 1) I do not have strong opinion on this and 2) it's not my baby anymore, new maintainer is Cédric Bellegarde13:34
Quintasanhmmm13:35
QuintasanRiddell: There is no smooth transition from libkscreen0 to libkscreen1, is that intended?13:35

RiddellQuintasan: never use   apt-get upgrade13:36
Riddellalways use  apt-get dist-upgrade13:36

Quintasanwat13:38
QuintasanThere is something I don't understand, if new kscreen has depends on libkscreen1 which has breaks on libkscreen0 - why didn't dist-upgrade ask me if I want to remove libkscreen0?13:39
QuintasanI did try dist-upgrade13:39
yofeltry with -o debug::pkgproblemresolver=113:40
