[00:05] I apologise if I ask hard questions and seem a bit rough. I only want the best for ubuntu-gnome, but I will stick the boot in and ask when not sure. [00:06] you sound sure [00:08] When it comes to xterm I am fairly sure. Should we ask of anyone who has ever needed or been dropped back too it? [00:11] I wanted to not include evolution by default since that's at least 10MB I believe but I wasn't able to get enough people to support that bold of a move [00:12] If xterm was so important it would b a dep of X, which it isn't and easy to remove. Would it? [00:13] jbicha: Evolution is an basic app off a basic business system. Lets look at dropping more sh*t as in emapthy? [00:14] Many tyos, but you get it. [00:14] Need new fingers. ;-) [00:15] jbicha: Drop games and social not a basic email / pim app. [00:19] jbicha: Are you attempting to get down to CD size? If you are don't bother these days. These days it's always about correct default install choices; and they can be hard. :-D [00:22] uh, you're the one complaining about 1 MB [00:23] xterm seems to be personally offensive to him [00:24] jbicha: That is a bad 1MB. Don't dop evolution as that kills a basic os install for business. Look at games and other things please. [00:25] Ubuntu GNOME is a general purpose OS [00:26] while it can be be used for business, I recommend serious businesses use a custom image [00:26] they should use centos i suppose [00:26] or rhel if they can afford it [00:27] bjsnider: I like apps I am looking at what is best os wide. Please don't make it personal as it is not. [00:29] jbicha: If general purpose. That's a wide scope. Is it to be stable or play OS. Does the group have a goal? [00:30] 13.10 is stable now. As that what I am chatting too you off. :-) [00:44] bjsnider: Should that be use centos id that cannot afford rhel.. Look I use and promote a deian base these days. I want a decent desktop to promote to customers, but the one is ubuntu gnome but the project will not LTS yet. [00:45] s/id/if [00:52] jbicha: Rather than dealing with evolution. How about this one bug 1218818 [00:52] bug 1218818 in cheese (Ubuntu) "ubuntu gnome - cheese-common - attempt to purge tries pulling out gnome-contacts etc." [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1218818 [00:52] :-) [00:54] libcheese is a base GNOME library; you can't remove it without rebuilding several apps to not have webcam support [00:59] jbicha: Why though. It is rubbish that some crap webacam app that should that dep'ed up? [01:00] Under my thinking it should not be default installed. [01:02] We are not catering to geeks like me. ;-) This is business. To get a distro known give people the basic and let them add on. [01:03] libcheese (or cheese-common) is not a webcam app; it's a library that webcam apps can use [01:03] you can uninstall cheese [01:04] jbicha: You said about removing evolution. I would agree with that IF ther was a email app selection screen at install. [01:04] Ubuntu GNOME is not a business - we have no income [01:05] if you want to run a business based on Ubuntu GNOME, you're welcome to recompile apps for your own purposes [01:06] jbicha: Who actually heads ubuntu gnome? [01:07] we're a community project [01:08] Mr Riddell heads Kubuntu. Who is the last stand for this one? [01:08] darkxst is technical lead but there are other people with other responsibilities [01:11] Technical maybe. Who has lead of how the OS evolves and how it looks etc. ? [01:12] that's what 'technical lead' means; there's a different guy that's artwork lead though [01:14] Do I have to really ask it -Who's the project boss? [01:15] jbicha: Don't ever invalidate a bug of mine again! [01:17] They are valid for a reason Ok. [01:18] the bug is invalid, I just marked it as such [01:19] u-k-i-t: developers are allowed to invalidate bugs that are such, he did give the reason why it wasn't valid [01:19] micahg: I just un invalidated it. ;-) [01:20] * micahg knows what the next step for the bug is ;) [01:20] micahg, how you doing? [01:20] bjsnider: fine, thanks, been a bit busy [01:20] coolio. how's firefox? [01:21] hrm, needs help [01:21] I wish I had more time [01:21] u-k-i-t: would you prefer I mark the bug "Won't Fix" ? [01:21] everything seems to need more help [01:23] jbicha: I see I am being I am being ganged up on for a valid bug. Ubuntu does not allow a dev to report bugs I assume. [01:23] u-k-i-t: you should be able to purge the app "cheese", the library is another isue [01:24] micahg: Look at the bug report [01:24] what did you purge? it says cheese-common which is again, not cheese [01:25] micahg: By usage 'cheese-common' supplies function and api to 'cheese'. So why are other apps deps of it? [01:26] it's arch:all files for the cheese binary as well as the library [01:27] this is common in Debian packaging [01:27] thought it was -data that held arch-indep files? [01:27] depends on what's inside, both are common names [01:28] anything in /usr/share [01:28] micahg: Its an app that nobody wants, it;s crap. [01:28] the app is cheese, the library and other files provide webcam functionality to other apps [01:30] You assume people have or want webcam. Big F*ckup. [01:30] u-k-i-t: please stop. Your language is getting very irritating and is not respectful [01:30] that's how upstream expects the app to be built, if they wanted it runtime detectable, they'd use dlopen [01:32] jbicha: I have not used bad language, but maybe asked hard questions ... Thats Ok isn't it? [01:34] your previous two statements had extra commentary at the end that I found rude [01:35] I got multiple answers and a member threatening the next status on a bug report. How should I react? [01:35] I wasn't threatening, just informing [01:35] sorry if you felt threatened [01:36] micahg: it came across as "what you do next we revert". [01:37] u-k-i-t: you have a right to file bugs and express opinions, but bugs that cannot be fixed have to be closed so that we can see which bugs are left that can be fixed [01:38] anyway, I'm logging off [01:39] take care jbicha [01:40] You have been a part of intimidated a user.; Actually a developer. Not nice! [01:40] Bye jbicha [01:41] You guys really need to learn how to deal with people. [01:44] Well it depends on what it is in relation to I guess. [01:44] This project willnot suport 14.04 LTS. Let me know if you can help. [01:44] i don't know that i've seen a good cop/bad cop routine with one person playing both parts before [01:45] it's a trap! [01:45] Ubuntu gnome doesn't have LTS releases at the moment, 13.10 is only the second official release, they have very few testers and even less maintainers [01:45] or will be the second sorry.. [01:51] How do I reply now. People have a go about me as a person but not dealt with my question. [01:52] the bug is invalid, it cannot be fixed in Debian or Ubuntu, you could petition the GNOME project to dlopen libcheese [01:53] https://bugzilla.gnome.org you can file the issue against whichever product builds with webcam support [01:53] micahg: It can be fixed. Ok I will fixx it and allow it to not pull out the main apps. [01:54] u-k-i-t: I'm saying from an archive perspective it can't be unless it uses dlopen (then it can be moved to a recommends) [01:55] hrm, I should've checked first, looks like there is some dlopen support, I'm not sure for what [01:56] * micahg will leave someone more GNOMEish to answer now [01:56] micahg: Don't worry about it. It's already dealt with in my respin. [12:36] Sorry all for using the 'f' word last night. I used it in context and it just flowed when I probably should have thought more before typing. Apologies. [13:11] hi [13:11] is there a lts version of ubuntu gnome? [14:27] Ubuntu gnome started with release 13.04...so I don't think so [17:22] darkxst, ping [17:24] darkxst, the e-d-s package is pretty broken :\ [17:24] there are several soname bumps not considered [17:26] this a real problem, but i can't deal with it right now [18:10] look how many packages it builds. the control file must be 500 lines
