micahgOvenWerks: is there an LP bug for that session issue?03:41
elfyknome: if you're happy with the gmb testcase on the pad I'll get it into the system08:19
knomeelfy, not yet :)08:49
ochosijjfrv8: sure thing! generally speaking parole docs haven't really started yet, i only set up a dummy page here (which is where docs will end up eventually): http://docs.xfce.org/apps/parole/start09:12
ochosijjfrv8: currently we're porting parole to Gtk3, and the UI has changed a little, so we decided to wait with starting the docs until that transition is made09:19
knomeochosi, would you have some time soonish to finish off the gmb testcase? i know it's nearly ready, but we should see if there are any kinks09:21
ochosijjfrv8: you should be able to install the latest version of parole from here: https://launchpad.net/~smd-seandavis/+archive/xfce-4.12-daily09:21
ochosiknome: yeah, internet is a bit sloooow here atm, but i can take a look09:24
ochosiknome: got the link at hand?09:34
knomejust a sec09:34
knomeneed to do one other thing first (5mins)09:34
ochosijjfrv8: so you'll need to get access to the docs wiki, but we can probably set up a staging page somewhere else09:36
elfyochosi: http://pad.ubuntu.com/SdNxa2psDG09:41
ochosithanks elfy 09:41
ochosielfy: how do we treat alternative methods for a test?09:43
elfyalternative methods for what?09:44
ochosiin gmusicbrowser: for updating your collection09:44
ochosiyou can either add a new folder to your existing "Music" folder09:44
elfyoic09:44
ochosi(or library folder, whereever that might be)09:44
ochosior you add a folder that resides somewhere else to your collection09:45
elfywould that not be a new test - eg - Add New Music to library 09:45
ochosiwell both add variants add new music09:45
ochosikinda09:45
ochosibut yeah, i'll make it a separate test then09:46
elfyupdate wouldn't if it didn't know the new source I assume09:46
elfythis is why I'm not doing the testcase - I really don't like using gmb :)09:46
elfyit just confuses me :)09:47
ochosiwe need docs for it i think09:49
elfyprobably - it doesn't seem very logical to me - but that's possibly just me 09:49
knomeok, i'm back09:56
elfyhi09:57
knomehey09:58
knomeochosi, can you double-check the plugins part?09:58
knomei can't remember where those infos are loaded09:58
knomeso just make sure they are appropriate and not "(name?)"09:59
knomei suppose other than that, i'm ok to include that in our tests10:00
ochosiwell, make sure that the infos are loading at all10:00
knome:P10:00
ochosifor some reason the artistinfo plugin fails for me here atm10:00
knomeheh10:01
ochosihmpf, same for albuminfo10:01
knomewell if you made sure the testcase was correct, people could notice that and send bugs ;)10:01
elfy:D10:02
ochosiwell if it doesn't even work for me here on saucy, there's no point in letting people run into these bugs over and over again10:03
knome:P10:08
ochosii'm already getting in touch with squentin to see whether he can fix it10:08
ochosiotherwise we'd have to disable those plugins by default10:09
ochosidoesn't make sense to activate them when they don't work10:09
knomesure10:09
knomestill time to fix them though10:09
elfylol - so next time I've got a bug I'll get ochosi to write a testcase for it :D10:09
knome;)10:09
ochosiok, all plugins that download webcontent have seized to work here10:10
ochosinot exactly sure why10:10
ochosiwho of you is on saucy?10:11
knome.o.10:11
* elfy is10:11
knomei can run a vbox desktop if you need more testing10:11
ochosielfy: could you please start gmb from the terminal and select a song from a popular band where you're sure you get results and then check one of these tabs/plugins: lyrics, artistinfo, albuminfo?10:11
ochosito the worst hit the refresh button there and check what the terminal says (if it doesn't work)10:12
elfya song in my library?10:12
ochosiyup10:12
elfylyrics workd10:13
elfyartist works10:13
elfyalbum info I assume is just called album - that's failing10:13
ochositerm output?10:14
knomewhat does the fox say?10:14
knomehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jofNR_WkoCE10:14
ochosior what happens when you hit the search-button?10:14
elfyhttp://pastebin.com/71S70ici10:14
elfysearch button?10:15
ochosihttp://www.zimagez.com/zimage/screenshot-09112013-121523pm.php10:15
ochosithat one next to "refresh"10:15
elfydon't see any of those buttons 10:15
elfywhat layout you using?10:16
ochosiok, wait a sec then :)10:16
ochosi(the default layout, just have to check what modications i have in my local setup)10:16
elfythe album plugin is just completely empty10:17
elfyI'll do a screenie - but I'll have to play later - got top be at work in 1010:17
ochosiah, then please go to the settings menu > settings > plugins10:17
ochosiand activate it therer10:17
ochosithat should do the trick10:17
ochosi(maybe we have to update our gmbrc file)10:17
ochosiif you still have time10:18
elfymmm10:18
knomeelfy always has time for QA, he's the QA lead10:18
elfyso enabling the thing has made gmb completely unresponsive now 10:18
* knome hides10:18
elfylol10:18
ochosihmpf10:19
elfywell that didn't want to stop then ... 10:19
elfyI'll be back in a few hours - gtg10:19
ochosisure, seeya10:20
ochosinice, indicator-power works now in xubuntu with the gtk3 panel patches10:23
ochosiif it had support for calling xfce4-power-manager (which should be easy to add) it'd be nice to use10:23
ochosimore consistency in the panel10:23
ochosiknome: do we track saucy bugs somewhere in a blueprint or something?11:05
ochosijust to keep an overview11:13
knomeochosi, if it's a release-critical, link it to the -devel blueprint11:16
ochosiis the logout bug there?11:17
knomeyes11:17
knomeat least if you mean the logout/lock bug11:17
ochosiin this case it's not release-critical, it's this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gmusicbrowser/+bug/122380811:17
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1223808 in gmusicbrowser (Ubuntu) "gmbrc misses line to activate albuminfo-plugin" [Undecided,New]11:17
ochosii'd still like to keep it somewhere so that i'm not the only one reminding micahg :)11:17
knomelet me rephrase...11:17
knomeif it's release-critical or something you are inclined to fix within this cycle, link it11:18
ochosihmpf, why is there no list of blueprints here: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/xubuntu-desktop11:20
knomebecause that's for the product11:21
knomefor the xubuntu-desktop product, i mean11:21
knomeand all of our blueprints need to be filed under ubuntu, if we want them showing up in status.u.c11:21
knomehttps://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/topic-s-flavor-xubuntu11:21
knomes/-s-/-t-/ for 14.04 blueprint(s)11:22
ochosican't see the logout bug in the devel blueprint11:23
ochosiah11:23
ochosithere it is11:23
knomeyep11:23
knomefeel free to change the title11:23
knome(as i've said before)11:24
ochosiso far i haven't successfully investigated11:24
knomewell it's pretty clear to me that the missing languages are a symptom of the real bug11:24
knomeso in that sense, the bug description is misleading11:25
knomebecause that's a non-issue11:25
ochosiyeah11:25
knomethe languages *shouldn't* be there when you've locked out11:26
knomemaybe another wishlist/low priority bug for hiding those menus when you're "only" locked out11:26
ochosiyeah, but that's useless until we use light-locker11:28
knomei'm not saying what's useless or not ;)11:28
knomei'm just saying those are two different bugs11:28
knomeand exactly that the lock-state bug is more critical than the languages11:28
ochosiyeah, it just might be a different, greeter-unrelated bug though11:31
knomesure11:32
ochosiali1234: you said that sound-indicator doesn't accept scrolling in unity either iirc – is there already a bugreport for that?11:38
ali1234yes11:38
ali1234it's on the mail11:38
ochosiah, i overlooked11:39
ochosisry11:39
ochosibtw, it kinda makes sense to show the notification bubble when the volume is changed through scrolling11:41
ochosion the indicator i mean11:41
ochosi(and i'm not sure that xfce4-volumed could distinguish the signals between menuitem and panel-item anyway)11:41
ali1234i don't think anything new happened since my mail. i'm waiting on those bugs to be fixed pretty much11:42
ali1234and none of them has anything to do with xfce11:42
ochosimhm11:43
ochosiwould be nice to see xfce4-powerman support in indicator-power11:43
ochosiany idea why brightness stuff wouldn't be shown there?11:46
ali1234no idea11:47
ali1234i don't think i have ever seen that11:47
ochosiok, well it should theoretically show a scale11:51
ochosibtw, if you want/can, it'd be great if you could patch indicator-power to open xfce4-powerman's settings on the "power settings..." menuitem11:52
ochosithere should be an analogous patch for indicator-sound somewhere to open pavucontrol11:52
ochosianyhoo, lunchtime, bbl11:52
jjfrv8ochosi, thanks for the info on parole. I'll get that new version and check it out.12:04
knomebbl12:09
ochosijjfrv8: great!12:41
ochosijjfrv8: feel free to check the docs of other xfce apps as reference (terminal is quite good) http://docs.xfce.org/apps/start12:48
brainwashconsolekit is deprecate and not required anymore, right?12:54
brainwashnot sure yet, if I can simply remove the package12:55
ochosinot sure if logind has taken over everything12:57
ochositbh the transition isn't much fun12:57
brainwashon my current installation no package actually depends on consolekit13:01
brainwashwell, same for system-shim :)13:01
brainwashochosi: when right clicking the password input field presented by the lightdm greeter, a strangely broken context menu appears14:25
brainwashmaybe because I'm actually using the latest git version of Greybird14:25
ochosibrainwash: thanks, will check14:26
elfyochosi: confirmed your gmb bug and added a comment14:35
ochosithanks14:36
ochosibtw, we're investigating the UI freezing of the plugin14:36
elfyok - thanks 14:36
ochosibut the rest of the plugins seem to work fine14:36
ochosiso the testcase should be ok there14:36
elfypersonally I'd add it to the testcase - we know the bug is there 14:37
ochosiplease go ahead14:38
elfyI would but I don't know what it normally says :)14:39
ochosiyou mean the plugin?14:39
elfyyea14:39
ochosiit looks pretty much like the artistinfo plugin14:39
ochosijust with albums ;)14:39
ochosiand albumreviews14:39
elfyok - so just some generic thing will do :)14:39
ochosiexactly14:39
elfyochosi: so was this gmb test just waiting for you to look?14:40
elfyif it was I'll merge it 14:40
ochosii was prolly gonna add another small one14:40
elfyok14:41
ochosibut other than that, i think it's quite finished14:41
elfywell when you know it's ready let me know - unless someone else merges it 14:41
ochosielfy: done14:47
elfyok - I'll pull the trigger on it then14:48
ochosithanks14:48
elfyall done now14:59
elfyknome: gmb not added to the package tracker yet - not sure if it should go in xfce or xubuntu apps15:02
elfyhello jono_ 15:02
elfyI'd assume xubuntu apps - http://packages.qa.ubuntu.com/admin/config/services/qatracker/testsuites/350/15:04
elfyknome: should we even be worrying about the test for onboard - I'd assume that Ubuntu uses it - they've got more resources I'd say - was one that just got the xubuntu tag added, that just leaves the printer one - I'll mail the list to ask if someone can do it - I can't - no printer 15:40
Unit193Task: ubuntu-desktop, ubuntu-usb, edubuntu-desktop, edubuntu-usb, xubuntu-desktop   Yep, Ubuntu uses it (in raring at least.)15:45
elfywhat is this task thing15:50
Unit193apt-cache show $packagename15:50
Unit193I can also tell you ubuntukylin uses it.15:50
elfythanks - never used show before15:51
Unit193ubuntu-dev-tools: /usr/bin/seeded-in-ubuntu  can also be handy.15:51
elfyI'm pleased we've got down to 2 left from almost too many  :p15:53
GridCubeif you need i can try to test login to my touchscreen netbook using that thingy :D15:53
elfyI can't even start the thing to write the testcase - so I was intending to push it to someone else to worry about :)15:54
elfywe've written 47 manual testcases 15:54
elfyand as I've no printer I can't do that one either :)15:55
lderan:P16:09
brainwashochosi: can you like the bugreport/blueprint for the delayed logout issue please?18:00
brainwashochosi: link18:11
brainwashI can't find it anywhere18:12
Unit193win new split18:14
Unit193Erp...18:14
OvenWerksmicahg: I went back and tested my KDE logouts and they are fine now. The only way I can get any delay is to have an app like libreoffice open while trying to logout. I am doing a fresh install with xfce to see the difference.18:36
OvenWerksI am realizing I don't logout (or shutdown) very often.18:36
brainwashthe greeter doesn't offer the option to restart, only shutdown is available18:40
brainwashthat's weird too18:40
knomeelfy, yup, xubuntu apps19:16
knomeelfy, if no one else is up for it, i can do that later when i'm visiting my mum or take a remote session.19:17
elfyyou talking about the printer one?19:18
elfyknome: mandatory, run once or optional do you think - I'd probably go for run once19:23
knomeelfy, yep, latter comments were about printer19:32
knomeelfy, for gmb, i think run once is fine19:32
elfythought so 19:32
elfyfor both - I did the package test setup :)19:32
elfywhat's your thoughts on onboard testcase 19:32
knomenot sure19:33
knomei haven't heard of many people using it19:33
elfyme neither - I'm just thinking of removing the xubuntu tag that chilcuil added 19:34
elfyif ever any of the other flavours get round to doing testcases we can just use theirs if we want to19:35
knomeyes19:36
knomewhat i actually think is...19:36
elfyok 19:36
knomeit's kind of hypocritical to "just" have an onboard testcase19:36
knomeif we were really interested if that worked or not, we should be able to put a lot more work to accessibility19:37
knomeat the moment that's not possible, even if we wanted19:37
elfymakes sense to me 19:37
knomeso yeah, i'm fine with dropping that for now19:37
elfyI'll deal with that then19:37
knometa19:37
elfyknome: if you find you've not got time to do the printer one let me know and I'll ask on the list citing having no money to get a printer :)19:39
knomelol19:41
knomethe problem is - i don't have a printer either19:41
knomebut i can get ahold of one, if needed..19:41
elfyI can do a mail easy enough 19:42
knomeyep, feel free to19:42
knomei was just saying i can do it if nobody else does...19:42
elfyok 19:43

ochosi(client side decorations, in case anyone is wondering)21:44
* ochosi really likes how future-proof our themes are at this point21:45
knome:)21:45
Unit193Then, broken in gtk 3.921:45
brainwashI like that icon theme21:46
ali1234client side decorations = no decorations?21:47
ochosiali1234: basically yes21:48
ochosiintegrated in the app in whatever way the app-dev sees suitable21:49
ali1234what a terrible idea21:49
brainwashso the bar will be visible when using basic window mangers (tiling wms,..)?21:50
ali1234the is no "the bar"21:50
ali1234it's just whatever the app decides to draw21:50
brainwashresulting in every app looking different?21:51
ali1234yes21:51
brainwashwhat a mess21:51
ali1234it will be like when you load up office 2010 on xp: it looks like windows 721:51
ali1234but everything else still looks like xp21:51
ochosiyup21:55
ochosithat's the huge problem that wayland brought about21:56
ali1234not that you'll be able to use a "basic" window manager with wayland - the window manager is built it21:56
brainwashcsd requires wayland?21:57
ochosibrainwash: no, but wayland requires csd21:58
ochosiwayland doesn't decorate windows in the traditional sense21:58
ochositoolkits should do that21:59
ochosiand to some extent, that makes sense21:59
ochosi(more consistent theming etc)21:59
ochosibut the problem is inconsistency between apps21:59
ochosiif devs don't follow the HIG who knows where/how to close an app (theoretically)21:59
ochosiit's the whole QT/GTK problem of OK/CANCEL in LEFT/RIGHT all over again...22:00
ali1234best case we'll need a qt and a gtk3 version of every window decoration theme like we already do with the widget themes22:01
ali1234worst case every app will draw it's own windows like chrome does22:01
brainwashUnity 8 to the rescue!22:01
brainwash:D22:01
