ahayzenmhall119, ping01:09
mhall119ahayzen: pong02:22
ahayzenmhall119, sorry, we have fixed the issue now :)02:22
ahayzenmhall119, do u know if there is gonna be another build?02:22
mhall11997 is cooking as far as I know02:22
ahayzenis tht the last? or will there be another?02:23
mhall119there will always be more :)02:24
mhall119last before 13.10, I don't know02:24
mhall119why?02:24
ahayzenmhall119, we have one merge just landing which fixes a really nasty bug where the user could become stuck02:25
mhall119ahayzen: as far as I know, all the core apps will be converted to click packages, which will allow us to deliver updates to them any time via the click app store02:26
ahayzenmhall119, ok02:26
mhall119so they will be independent of the platform's release cycle02:26
ahayzenmhall119, just would be nice for them to be in the initial image02:26
ahayzen<-- perfectionist02:27
mhall119ahayzen: the apps will be, but we can deliver updates later02:27
mhall119but yeah, we want a nice stable version in the base release02:27
dholbachgood morning07:00
nik90mhall119: oh I forgot about the app armor policy group. If you add the usermetrics policy group then your app should be able to access it.08:20
nik90mhall119: I have updated my post to reflect it.08:20
nik90dpm: can we get some people to review https://code.launchpad.net/~renatofilho/qtorganizer5-eds/fix-match-all/+merge/19108010:01
nik90dpm, popey: more alarm fixed for EDS10:02
nik90fixes*10:02
nik90fginther: are the clock app autopilot tests passing now?10:03
dpmoSoMoN, I'd normally ask bfiller, but his day hasn't started yet. Do you think you or someone from your team could help us review https://code.launchpad.net/~renatofilho/qtorganizer5-eds/fix-match-all/+merge/191080 ? We need it to be able to save alarms in the clock app10:04
oSoMoNdpm: looking10:05
dpmawesome, thanks10:06
nik90thnx dpm, oSoMoN10:06
dpmnik90, does this indeed fix the issue for clock? I.e. have you had the chance to test if with this change alarms do get saved?10:06
nik90dpm: no I haven't, but renato told me on irc that that should be it10:07
nik90dpm: do you know how to download a package from the MP so that I can push it to the phone and test?10:08
dpmI'd be more comfortable if we'd have some more confirmations. Are you able to test from the upstream code, or would you need a new qtorganizer-eds package to test?10:08
dpmok, that answers my question :)10:08
nik90:)10:08
dpmlet me see if it would be easy to create a package to the core apps PPA10:09
dpmnik90, are you running 13.04 or 13.10?10:09
nik9013.1010:09
nik90dpm: although I need an arm package since EDS saving alarms already works on the desktop...just not on the phone10:10
dpmyeah, the PPA would take care of an ARM build too10:10
dpmnik90, ok, requested builds, starting in about 20 minutes, although it might take a couple of hours for the armhf builds to be ready: https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-touch-coreapps-drivers/+recipe/qtorganizer5-eds-daily10:13
nik90dpm: okay10:13
nik90dpm: so i just adb push this to phone and install it?10:13
dpmnik90, you can track the status here: https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-touch-coreapps-drivers/+archive/daily/+builds?build_state=building10:14
nik90dpm: since it is in ppa, I will just add the ppa to the phone and perform an update10:15
dpmnik90, yeah, once the armhf package has been built, you can push it and install it, or even easier just add the PPA. I've never done this after we switched to RO images, though, so you might need to switch to RW before installing it. popey, do you know more about installing packages via apt in a RO image? Can we just switch to RW, install and then back to RO?10:16
nik90dpm: I know how to convert to RW..i can then reflash to get back to RO10:17
dpmnik90, awesome. Good news: it seems the builds already started, so if all goes well, we should have the packages very soon: https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-touch-coreapps-drivers/+archive/daily/+builds?build_text=&build_state=building10:19
nik90yay10:20
oSoMoNdpm: I have approved the MR, but I can’t top-approve it10:23
nik90oSoMoN: I can confirm if that MP fixes that bug in about 10 mins. Then renato can merge it once his day starts10:25
oSoMoNsounds good10:26
dpmthanks a lot oSoMoN10:26

dpmpopey, do you have your magic script to run the latest trunk of a given core app on a device? I'm trying to run music-app trunk to get some screenshots for a MP, but with Qt Creator the music app will deploy and start but not find any music.10:31

nik90dpm: it failed on raring armf10:35
nik90but passed on saucy armf10:36
* nik90 is testing now10:36
dpmnik90, ah, yeah, that's cool. I noticed that mid-build, and I cancelled the 13.04 builds: they need a version of libecal that's only on saucy10:36
dpmnik90, awesome10:36
nik90dpm: doesnt work...There was an app armor issue before which didnt allow the clock app to save alarms. But that was also fixed in the apparmor-easyprof-ubuntu package by jdstrand and is already in the phone..10:47
nik90dpm: will talk to renato and zsombi regarding this10:47
dpmnik90, argh, bummer :/10:47

mihirdpm: I am working on edit event mode , because of Edit i need to change a code12:04
mihirdpm:  are you having latest image  on your device now ?12:04
mihirdpm: are you able to create new event ?? because i am getting some error while creating new event :| if you could test that would be great12:05

mihirdpm: i am getting an error End time can't be before start time , even though the end time is grater than that12:16
dpmmihir, I seem to be able to create an event with the calendar on the latest image, but I've heard someone else mentioning the error you're having12:17
dpmmihir, you can install the latest qtorganizer5-eds package from the core apps ppa, but you'll have to be on saucy12:17
mihirdpm: shit i need to upgrade to final beta version first?12:18
dpmsorry, the eds backend depends on a package that's only on saucy :/12:19

dpmfginther, any ideas why in https://code.launchpad.net/~mihirsoni-123/ubuntu-calendar-app/NewEventdetails/+merge/187489 Jenkins is finding conflicts when doing the merge? I've checked out trunk locally and merged that branch, and I can confirm what mihir says: it merges cleanly14:37

dpmnik90, which steps did you follow to run the app on the device? Did you use Qt Creator?15:23
dpmoh, great!15:24
nik90dpm: yes15:24
dpmweird, for me it just launches the app but it finds no media :/15:24
nik90dpm: http://imgur.com/HSpXJe015:24
nik90dpm: my sample music album did not have album art15:24
dpmnik90, that's perfect, thanks. Would you mind doing a bit of development by proxy and changing some control sizes to see what they look like on the device?15:26
nik90dpm: sure, if you can tell me how to do it15:27
dpmnik90, great, just a sec15:27
davmor2nik90: sure Linux unplugged would be pointless ;)15:28
nik90davmor2: hehe15:29
ahayzendpm, i'm around if tht helps?15:30
nik90ahayzen: btw, the music app is rocking atm..I love the new visuals...been a while since I used the music app15:31
nik90ahayzen: nice work15:31
ahayzennik90, thanks :) we've been quite busy over the past week or so :)15:32
dpmnik90, ahayzen, essentially, I was trying to tweak the sizes of the play toolbar controls to look like https://docs.google.com/a/canonical.com/presentation/d/1nc7RTAD5ViEAdc3VsZyN-lkmG-AnO664uV-5wXZoZZg/edit#slide=id.g11c43ec0b_221 - these are the changes I'd like to test -> http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~dpm/music-app/player-control-sizes/revision/20915:35
dpmI don't seem to be able to run the app and detect the media on a device, so any help in getting the right sizes would be awesome :)15:35
ahayzendpm, i think only the image sizes of shuffle,repeat,next,previous were incorrect IIRC?15:36
dpmahayzen, yeah, they looked a bit small15:36
ahayzendpm, we were using 4GU...think Victor dropped it to 2.5GU last night after discussions with him but design states 2GU which looks tiny!15:37
dpmahayzen, indeed, there seems to be a bit of mismatch on gu expectations on the visual spec and what it actually looks like on e.g. a Nexus 415:37
ahayzendpm, yep15:38
nik90ahayzen, dpm: Since I am looking at the code for the first time, for an Image {} shouldnt you also define fillMode: Image.PreserveAspectFit so that it does not skew due to bad aspect ratio?15:39
ahayzendpm, ok i'm free now, was proposing another branch :) , wht do u want testing?15:39
ahayzennik90, where have u seen tht?15:40
dpmahayzen, simply if you could  run that branch (http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~dpm/music-app/player-control-sizes/revision/209) on the device and either take a screenshot or tweak the sizes yourself, that'd be really useful15:40
nik90ahayzen: I haven't it skew in the music app, but sometimes in the SDK toolkit, I notice they use this definition.15:40
ahayzendpm, how do u take a screenshot?15:41
ahayzennik90, no i mean where in our code did u spot tht?15:41
dpmahayzen, generally with Qt Creator, although after the Mir migration that no longer works and you'll have to use this script: https://bugs.launchpad.net/phablet-tools/+bug/123883915:41
ubot2Launchpad bug 1238839 in Phablet Tools "Add phablet-screenshot script" [Undecided,New]15:41
nik90ahayzen: in musicToolbar.qml, the repeatIcon Image{} does not have that declaration15:42
nik90ahayzen: I see many more Image{} declaration musicToolbar.qml which doesnt have it15:42
nik90ahayzen: download the script frmo the bug report, make it executable and then ./runscript.sh filename.png should do it15:43
ahayzennik90, we have been doing height: units.gu(3); width: height; so it is sortof ensured it is square15:43
ahayzennik90, but i guess if there is a better way we should make use of it :)15:43
ahayzennik90, dpm thanks15:43
nik90ahayzen: :)15:44
ahayzendpm, if all has gone well this is wht ur branch looks like on device http://ubuntuone.com/05zl9QgkHAU9lcuC7jAen715:47
nik90ahayzen: why does only Albums tab have a grid view while songs, artists etc have a list view?15:51
dpmahayzen, thanks, looking now...15:51
ahayzennik90, albums will eventually be like the gallery app15:52

mhall119that's what I'm thinking, yeah16:51
mhall119but I haven't dug into the code16:51
popeyi thought that was being removed16:51
om26erboiko, it seems its not installing anything else.16:51

om26erboiko, it works for you ?16:52
om26erif it does then I guess some problem with my install16:52
boikoom26er: yes, we actually develop on desktop (and running on desktop too)16:53
om26erboiko, are you going to create a separate series for the 13.10 release of messaging-app ?16:54
