shadeslayerScottK: in the plugins?00:05
yofelin the lib package - I'm not sure whether it should be there, it's created by debian rules and I think came from debian00:06
yofellet me check whether they still have that00:06

apacheloggerRiddell, shadeslayer: https://trello.com/c/mjkKUZHs what's that about?11:56
shadeslayerapachelogger: Riddell I mentioned it atleast 3 times when explaining driver manager -.- , qapt-batch will get a new flag called --plasma , which will cause it to show update / installation progress via the notification area ( just like the copy notification )12:29
apacheloggerwasn't in during driver manager :P12:30
apacheloggerstill makes no sense btw12:31
jussiapachelogger: why does it ake no sense? (I seem yo ask you why an awful lot)12:31
apacheloggersomething went wrong with them words there :P12:33
apacheloggerargh, polkit is impossible to debug12:34
apacheloggeranyway12:34
apacheloggerit makes no sense because if one calls qapt-batch that invocation is not contextually bound to plasma12:34
apacheloggeri.e. the desktop12:34
jussiapachelogger: but it will be a flag, that is only enabled for items called from that desktop? or did I miss something? 12:35
apacheloggerI dunno the use case because no one ever tells me the use case12:36
ovidiu-florinhello world12:36
jussiapachelogger: !!!! http://media.fukung.net/imgs/325392234308099338full.jpg12:37
apacheloggerlulz12:37
apacheloggerhey ovidiu-florin12:37
ovidiu-florinGuys, if there is a way to give some credit to the original author of the code that made the Kubuntu Romania download page: https://plus.google.com/+ZetCoby that would be great. His name is Cosmin Seviciu.12:38
shadeslayerapachelogger: the idea was that once the user hits "Apply" in driver-manager, the installation progress is reported via plasma12:38
apacheloggersee my remarks about context12:38
shadeslayerso how does the restart notification tie into the context 12:39
apacheloggeralso IMO driver-manager doesn't want to use qapt-batch but libqapt directly for integration reasons12:39
apacheloggershadeslayer: it doesn't have a context, it's your desktop telling you that your desktop needs a reboot12:39
shadeslayercan you explain a bit more regarding the integration reasons?12:40
apacheloggerwhat you want is a progress bar inside the driver-manager12:41
shadeslayerand do you have a better way to do it>12:41
shadeslayer*?12:41
apacheloggerbecause as I have stated numerous times the driver manager is not an installer, it's a manager12:41
apacheloggerthe management task is comprised of an installation task (qapt) and a configuration task (driver-manager-common)12:41
apacheloggerso progress of the management task is 0->75% =qapt installing the package and 76-100% configuration (e.g. modprobe setup etc.)12:42
apacheloggeriff however the package is already installed we have 0-100% configuration 12:42
apacheloggerthat's why you don't want a plasma notification, why you don't want qapt and why you want a progress bar inside the app itself12:44
apacheloggershort of having a progressbar that actually represents what is going on you might as well just put a spinning circle indicator there and be done with it12:45
shadeslayerexcept that libqapt doesn't offer python bindings12:46
apacheloggerexcep they can be created, or the driver-manager gets implemented in cpp and uses cpython to use driver-manager-common12:48
shadeslayermhmm12:48
ovidiu-florinjussi: how long does the blog post need to be?12:54
shadeslayerI don't think there's a minimum limit :P12:54

apacheloggermaximum 30k12:57
apacheloggerif you hit the maximum you'll need to start writing a book12:57

ovidiu-florinthanks13:00
ovidiu-florinjussi: regarding the migration to wordpress13:00
jussiovidiu-florin: talk to tsimpson13:01
ovidiu-florinI think there's a way to have translations for articles. so there is no need to have a separate site to have the content in a different language.13:01
ovidiu-florinjust a subdomain, or a url change13:02

ovidiu-florinthere are a few out there13:05
jussiagateau: :D13:05
ovidiu-florinI'll make some tests on my blog13:05
agateaujussi: I saw the pictures of the Jussi family at the sprint, looks like Kubuntu is a family operation now :)13:05
jussiagateau: yeah, something like that. why werent you there? 13:05
agateaujussi: I was at Akademy-fr13:05
jussiagateau: not acceptable excuse :P13:05
apacheloggeragateau: making something scalable agnostic to install foo has been on my todo since 2007 or so :S13:06
agateaujussi: it will have to do :)13:06
agateauapachelogger: good, it's about to happen then ;)13:06
apachelogger:S13:06
ovidiu-florinapachelogger: when will that gwenview thingy become available?13:07
apacheloggerjust so non trivial13:07
ovidiu-florinin 14.0413:07
ovidiu-florin?13:07
apacheloggeragateau: I am beginnning to think that maybe it shoudl be done on a per-application basis anyway13:07
apacheloggerpackage management is just so vastly different in the no-so-major distros13:07
apacheloggeror even binary vs. gentoo13:07
apacheloggerovidiu-florin: yeah13:07
shadeslayerapachelogger: can you plz look at bug 118278413:07
ubottubug 1182784 in ubiquity (Ubuntu) "Install with German / Swiss Keyboard fails: "ubi-console-setup failed with exit code 141" or "Installer Crashed"" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/118278413:08
shadeslayerI for one cannot reproduce it13:08
agateauapachelogger: I was thinking of something done this way actually. Adding hooks in the upstream code so distro can provide their part13:08
apacheloggershadeslayer: - The installation with Swiss-German Layout works if the installation language is English and not German.13:08
apacheloggershadeslayer: and on that note maybe try f6 on the boot manager thingy to switch to german from there13:08
apacheloggersince I noticed that ubiquity is getting confused13:08
shadeslayerhm13:09
agateauapachelogger: preferably by forking binaries to reduce changes of introducing crashes13:09
shadeslayerI did try it out with German, but did not test with german from syslinux13:09
apacheloggeragateau: that's how gstreamer does it13:09
apacheloggerthat's hard to facility from a framework POV though13:09
apacheloggerthing also is... from a distro POV having 30000 binaries to handle stuff for 30000 apps is also not nice13:10
apacheloggerso you need some sort of consolidated handling/interface to enable one binary to rule them all13:11
apacheloggerit's all very fugly I say13:11
agateauapachelogger: you are free to reuse the same binary as far as I am concerned :)13:11
apacheloggersure, if there is one interface13:11
apacheloggeranyway due to complexity the task rates like super low13:12
ovidiu-florintsimpson: is the transition planed yet? or it's just in the research phase?13:12
apacheloggerat some point someone will have to do the requirements engineering on that tho13:12
apacheloggeror we just all start using deb13:12
apacheloggerthat'd be the other solution :P13:12
agateauapachelogger: if gwenview had a way to say if (no plugins) { binary = config.group("Installer").readString("kipiinstaller"); kprocess(binary); } I would be fine13:13
agateauworks for me :)13:13
agateaubut good luck with that!13:13

shadeslayeraha, hi jmux16:26
shadeslayerjmux: I have a follow up question, what are the main KDE apps that you use on your distro?16:26
shadeslayerYou ( or someone else ) talked about LO, Firefox and Thunderbird16:27
jmuxYes - that was me16:27
shadeslayerbut I don't recall anyone talking about any KDE specific apps that you guys use16:27
jmuxI have a list of our main applications.16:27
jmuxAnd I have a list with application requirements for workflows16:28
jmuxShould I PM the list to you or just post it somewhere?16:30
shadeslayerPM is fine16:35
jmuxshadeslayer: Mail?16:36
shadeslayerjmux: do you guys also have a blog where you publish docs and statistics about the roll out?16:36
shadeslayerjmux: rohan@kde.org16:36
shadeslayerjmux: other follow up questions : do you guys have a internal bug tracker? or are all bugs reported to upstream bug trackers ? Unrelated question to KDE : you showed that you use some Oracle stuff for sync'ing calendar's , how does that work for people who want to sync calendars to their phones? How do people sync official mail to their phones? SMTP ?16:37
jmuxThere is the Munich IT blog (german): http://www.it-muenchen-blog.de/16:39
jmuxBut the Project is finished. There'll be an offical press announcement in December. Currents status is here (soory all German): http://www.muenchen.de/rathaus/Stadtverwaltung/Direktorium/LiMux/Zahlen_Fakten/Projektstatus.html16:39
shadeslayerit's alright, google translate ftw16:40
jmuxWe have an internal bug tracker and it also tracks RfCs und we use it for our requirement engineering and release planing (TRAC).16:42
jmuxAnd for planning our SCRUMM sprints. AFAIK we don't have many community bugs.16:44
shadeslayerjmux: oh and another one : if a user asks the sysadmin to install a package on his machine, and then logs into another machine somewhere else, is that package installed on login?16:48
shadeslayertsdgeos: yofel: uploading 4.11.95 shortly16:51
tsdgeosshadeslayer: cool16:51
shadeslayerapachelogger: you forgot to sync gwenview to bzr16:51
shadeslayeror vice versa16:51
jmuxshadeslayer: No - basically we install all packages on every Computer. Additional software most times just happens for commercial / licensed software.16:52
tsdgeosi'm holding up to download 300M just to downlaod them again :D16:52
shadeslayerheh16:52
jmuxSoftware ist installed per computer, but the menu XML is generated per user.16:52
jmuxSO most time the user already has the software installed, but it's not in hist K-menu16:53
shadeslayerjmux: all packages that are relevant to the department? or do you really mean *all* pacakges?16:54
apacheloggershadeslayer: hm?16:54
apacheloggershadeslayer: I did not do a gwenview upload16:54
shadeslayeryes, you did not, but you update bzr16:54
jmuxshadeslayer: all free packages in our distribution get installed. AFAIK it's about 6.5 GB - installed in about 15 minutes.16:55
shadeslayerwhoa o_o16:55
shadeslayerjmux: still waiting for a answer on calendar / mail :D16:56
jmuxshadeslayer: Missed that - AFAIK there is no phony sync and especially no BYOD. The OCal product has syncml support and people are using old PALM organizers. We wrote a minimal software to get the sync working with linux.17:00
shadeslayeroh cool, if it has syncml you might be able to synchronize to Akonadi17:00
shadeslayerwhich means you can use Akonadi at some point instead of thunderbird if you want to17:01
shadeslayer( syncevolution supports synchronizing stuff over syncml to Akonadi )17:01
jmuxThere is no sync for anything else. No VPN - we're way behind current technology possibilities17:01
jmuxDoes Akonadi run on Windows?17:02
jmuxOur policy is basically, one program for one task... independant of the OS, if possible.17:02
shadeslayerjmux: http://sourceforge.net/projects/kde-windows/files/akonadi/1.1.1/17:03
jmuxThis also saves trainig time in the IT training department.17:03
