GunnarHjrobert_ancell: How do we get the g-s startup dialog translated?03:52
robert_ancellg-s?03:52
GunnarHjrobert_ancell: guest session03:52
GunnarHjrobert_ancell: Ubuntu patch?03:52
robert_ancellIt has to be marked for translation in the debian/ directory some how, but I don't know the correct way of doing it03:52
robert_ancellor maybe a patch?03:53
GunnarHjrobert_ancell: Yeah, I too thought of a patch.03:53
robert_ancellautotools fails if we refer to  a file in debian/03:53
GunnarHjrobert_ancell: But I'm not sure either of how all that stuff works.03:53
GunnarHjI see.03:53
GunnarHjrobert_ancell: I can ask for advice here later today.03:54
robert_ancellcool, please do03:54
GunnarHjrobert_ancell: Why are the guest session files in debian, btw? Is guest session a pure Ubuntu thing?03:57
robert_ancellGunnarHj, a lot of the guest session stuff is very Ubuntu specific. It's one reason why I want to split it all out into a separate package. Then that package can contain all this code03:58
GunnarHjrobert_ancell: Ok, room for getting the things in order... ;-)03:59

seb128pitti, no, I though you might, we are still working on the transition11:01
Laneyyes11:01
pittiyeah, I figure somethign weird with jhbuild or what not; let's ignore that one11:01

seb128Sweetshark, is that normal?11:22
Sweetsharkseb128: meh.11:26
seb128Sweetshark, NEWed anyway, but that might be a bug11:26
Sweetsharkseb128: libreoffice-sdbc-firebird would be a new package. But I disabled building firebird-sdbc as firebird is in universe and not in the best state as of now. So there shouldnt have been a package at all ideally ...11:27
seb128Sweetshark, I see, yeah, maybe commenting in debian/control would make sense11:28
Sweetsharkseb128: nah, libreoffice is generating ./debian/control -- so properly, it shouldnt have that package at all.11:29
Sweetsharkseb128: I will fix that, would that block uploading to trusty. Having an empty stale package of something we dont know we could deploy would be meh.11:30
seb128Sweetshark, no, it's not a blocker, as said "NEWed anyway, but that might be a bug"11:31
seb128Sweetshark, if you stop building the binary in a next upload it's going to be cleaned just fine, no worry11:31

Sweetsharkseb128: \o/12:17
seb128Sweetshark, the libreoffice "start" screen (e.g the one letting you pick a recent document or writer/calc/...) is not translated though, is that a bug or just french translators slacking?12:17
Sweetsharkseb128: ... aaaand building tarballs for rc3 right now.12:18
Sweetsharkseb128: that might be just localizers slacking as the start screen was still under heavy development late. I will look into it before the next upload though.12:19
seb128Sweetshark, thanks12:19
seb128Sweetshark, good job in any case, that split went smoothly it seems ;-)12:19
Sweetsharkseb128: which ironically helps us most for the PPAs -- but then again: more/better testing in PPAs => better quality in the archive.12:20
seb128right12:21
seb128it also means lower build time12:21
Sweetshark(and doing things 'slightly different' in PPAs is a sure way into desolation ;) )12:21
Sweetsharkseb128: yep. and security updates without l10n rebuilds.12:21
seb128Sweetshark, the fileselector has a bug, the "> File type" at the bottom of the open dialog lost its label12:24

GunnarHjseb128: Hi Sebastien!13:02
seb128GunnarHj, hey13:04
GunnarHjseb128: Time for a lightdm packaging question?13:04
seb128GunnarHj, sure13:04
GunnarHjThe lightdm source package contains the file debian/guest-session-auto.sh, which has translatable strings. However, robert_ancell let me know that autotools fails if po/POTFILES.in refers to  a file in debian/, so in the latest lightdm release those strings didn't make it to lightdm.mo.13:05
GunnarHjAny ideas how this issue can be resolved?13:05
seb128GunnarHj, do you have details on how it fails? listing a debian/ file should work without issue13:07
GunnarHjseb128: No, I'm afraid not.13:08
Laneyhmm13:10
GunnarHjseb128: Can the problem be related to the fact that upstream lightdm is identical with lightdm in Ubuntu?13:10
Laneyhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/Brightness#Phone do we have anything that looks like that in u-s-s atm?13:10
xnoxunity-control-center wants to be demoted to universe, shouldn't it be seeded into ubuntu-desktop?13:10
LaneyI did two Standards but it looks weird13:10
Laneyxnox: not yet13:10
Laneyput it in supported for now if you want13:10
xnoxLaney: at least into common / supported. Ack.13:10
seb128xnox, what Laney said, the transition is still not done so we can't switch yet13:11
seb128GunnarHj, well, if that debian file is not upstream we need a debian/patches in the packaging to add it to the POTFILES.in13:11
xnoxseb128: Laney: is "supported-desktop-extra" seed meant to be in main or universe?13:12
xnoxcause xchat-gnome is trying to get demoted into universe, yet it's in that seed...13:12

seb128GunnarHj, it should, btw I'm not sure I like that new feature, it's quite annoying to have that reminder all the time13:15

mterryseb128, So in Unity, I see Backups in both g-c-c and u-c-c.  You're saying that in GNOME, it doesn't show up in either?16:11
seb128mterry, hey16:17
mterryseb128, hi.  Sorry, my IRC is crazy16:17
mterryseb128, did you get my question?16:17
seb128mterry, I'm saying that backup doesn't show in gnome-control-center.real under Unity16:17
mterryoh... .real?16:17
seb128mterry, g-c-c is a wrapper calling u-c-c or g-c-c.real16:17
seb128mterry, if you have u-c-c and want to try g-c-c you need to run .real16:18
seb128mterry, otherwise you get u-c-c through the wrapper16:18
mterryseb128, OK.  So in Unity, without u-c-c, I wouldn't see Backups16:18
seb128mterry, if that makes sense?16:18
seb128correct16:18
seb128which is the default config in trusty atm16:18
seb128since we didn't complete the transition/switch the seed16:18
mterryseb128, I'm leery of just adding Unity;GNOME; because then there would be two entries in the dash, eh?16:19
seb128mterry, that's a good point maybe we just need to finish the transition16:19
seb128mterry, btw did you see my deja-dup mp to fix the unity integration?16:20
mterryseb128, I had been testing without understanding we had a wrapper, so I thought everything was magically fine.  :)16:20
mterryseb128, just merged it16:20
seb128mterry, great, thanks ;-)16:20
mterryseb128, maybe g-c-c should force GNOME when looking for its panels.  And u-c-c should force Unity16:20
seb128mterry, yeah, it just occurred to me that the wrapper might have tricked you :p16:20
mterryseb128, that's what I thought g-c-c was doing, and I figured it was very clever16:20
mterryThere is a way to tell libgmenu or whatever which desktop you are in (otherwise, it looks it up in env)16:21
seb128mterry, that would make sense I guess16:21
mterryNot sure it's really needed.  But it would help in the transition maybe16:21
seb128with the 2 variant you don't want dynamic behaviour16:21
seb128you want g-c-c to act as a GNOME config tool and u-c-c as an Unity one16:22
seb128mterry, well, the transition is mostly done, so I would say we don't need to bother16:22
seb128dpm, can you approve https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/trusty/+source/unity-control-center/+imports?field.filter_status=all&field.filter_extension=pot for me?16:22
