elfyknome: ibus issue is now triaged it seems06:35
elfynot that it means much - it's not fixed :p06:53
knomeso...06:54
knomehow did it end up triaged?06:54
knomeoh, right06:55
elfyno idea - aron xu changed it between us talking about it in -dekstop and 02:55 06:55
knomelast comment in our bug is interesting06:55
elfyand likely to make them do something06:57
elfyif nothing else I can understand why debian haven't noticed the issue as we did - they don't install it default 06:58
knomeyep...06:58
Unit193Check popcon in Debian.06:58
knomehow do people who need ibus use debian then?06:58
elfyno idea06:59
Unit193Set it in ibus too?06:59
elfyhttp://qa.debian.org/popcon.php?package=ibus07:00
ali1234sometimes i wonder how anyone uses debian for anything07:00
elfynot many takers07:00
elfyknome: my position on this is - if we can wait and still get people at the last minute to deal with unseeding it then let's do that, if we don't have confidence in doing it at the last minute we should start unseeding it now07:03
knomewe can wait until 9th07:05
elfymy position won't change unless triaged changes to fix release :)07:06

Unit19303:1007:10
elfyiss that a real time?07:11
knomelol07:11
jhenkemorning folks07:56
jhenkei guess everybody has seen the ibus bug status change last night?07:56
ochosiyeah, but that doesn't mean anything07:57
jhenkeit means the assigned person has at least aknowledged he is responsible ;)07:57
ochosiand the likelihood of that getting fixed for release is tending more towards 007:57
ochosielfy: talked to seb128 already?07:58
jhenkehoffnung stirbt zuletzt (hope dies last)07:58
ochosiwell i think we won't count on that and rather remove it until it works again, at least that would be my proposed solution07:58
knomeochosi, did talk08:02
knomeochosi, the response is more or less "i'm sorry, but we can't do much"08:02
ochosiwell yesterday08:02
ochosiyeah08:02
ochosii read the backlog08:02
knomein an understanding way..08:02
ochosibut i meant today08:02
knomeah08:02
ochosibecause now we know it's also borked in debian08:02
ochosiso chances of getting it fixed = 008:02
ochosior very low at least08:02
knomeyes..08:02
ochosii'd inform seb about it08:02
knomeunless debian maintainers/upstream fixes it08:03
ochosiand then ask happyaron about the problems of removing it08:03
knomedo we know who that is?08:03
knome^deb maint./us?08:03
ochosihe's the assignee to the ibus ug08:05
ochosibug08:05
ochosiin ubuntu08:05
knomeno, i wasn't asking that08:05
knomemy question is:08:05
knomedo we know who the debian maintainers/upstream developers are?08:05
ochosino08:06
ochosiat least i don't08:06
knomei think it might be worth to poke that way08:06
ochosibut i'd honestly think we should take care of the indicators first08:06
ochosiseems a bigger issue to me08:06
ochosiand btw, about those, you could repeat your last night's arguments08:06
knomewell sure, but the ibus one is pretty nasty as well..08:06
ochosibreaking stuff for others a few days before release...08:06
knomei could, but what would be the point?08:06
ochosiwell the ibus we can remove and add back later08:06
knomei tried to explain that to seb12808:07
ochosiyeah, i wasn't really suggesting that ;)08:07
ochosiyeah, his arguments were understandable08:07
knomeif paid work is overriding fixing flavors, fixing flavors will never happen08:07
ochosialthough with indicators it's slightly different08:07
ochosicause it's all under their control08:07
knomeeven if there was a policy of "you break it, you fix it"08:07
Unit193So how do you start the sound package again?08:08
ochosimaybe ali1234 has a good idea how to fix this08:08
ali1234fix what?08:08
ochosiUnit193: you can simply tick the checkbox in the session autostart tab08:08
ochosiali1234: the indicators aren't autostarting anymore08:09
ali1234yell at tedg08:09
ochosibecause we'll most likely have to make our session emit the signals08:09
ochosito start and end them08:09
ali1234well yes08:09
ochosiat least after discussing with Laney last night this seemed the most reasonable solution08:09
ali1234that's the idea08:09
ochosibut our session doesn't do that08:09
ali1234it's the same as what you do in lightdm08:10
ali1234one line, exec init --emit-signal or whatever08:10
Unit193Right, that's what I did last time, edited the desktop file.08:10
ochosii know, but 1) i didnt do that part of the greeter, and 2) i don't know the session code at all08:13
ali1234it should be put into the indicator plugin08:13
ochosiali1234: also, couldnt the indicator plugin do it?08:13
ochosiright08:13
ochosiwell that codebase i know even less :)08:13
ochosiso yeah, if it's just one line, can we add that to the plugin?08:14
ali1234sure08:14
ali1234it should stop them too08:14
ali1234except that there's no way to do that yet08:14
ochosi(btw, "we" is always you in this case ;))08:14
ochosiaha?08:14
ochosii thought sending the -end signal?08:14
ali1234i can do a quick patch but you'll have to chase whoever to get it applied08:14
ochosithat is ok08:14
ochosii think we can try to force Laney or tedg :)08:15
ali1234btw this probably means tedg finally uploaded the upstart fixes08:15
ochosiyup08:15
ochosiwell, not all of them it seems08:16
ochosibut most08:16
ochosii mean:08:16
ochosisome of them haven't landed yet08:16
ochosibut yes, he has uploaded them it seems08:16
ali1234http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~lightdm-gtk-greeter-team/lightdm-gtk-greeter/trunk/view/head:/src/lightdm-gtk-greeter.c#L38608:17
ochosiyeah, i know08:17
ochosibut as i said, i didn't write that part of the code (and didn't even want to have it in 14.04 at first :)), so...08:18
ochosikalgasnik was doing all the work on the indicators08:19
ochosiso we have to shut them down in the plugin now by sending them a sigterm (since you implied the -end signal doesn't work yet)?08:19
ali1234i don't thin -end even exists, sending terminate to the process is the correct way to do it08:20
ali1234hmm... what happens if we have two panels?08:21
ali1234i guess i will find out08:21
ochosiright08:23
ochosiyou mean >1 indicator-plugins?08:23
ochosii guess you need to ask first whether the service has been started already08:24
ochosiand only start it if not08:24
ali1234http://paste.ubuntu.com/7202310/08:28
ali1234ochosi: ^08:29
ali1234this is untested08:29
ali1234we could also just put "init --user --startup-event indicator-services-start" into the session autostart08:30
ochosiali1234: you mean as a launcher?08:38
ochosithe problem i see with that is that indicators will always get launched, even if the indicator-plugin isn't used08:40
ochosiit's just a small drawback, because ppl can obviously also uninstall the indicator-packages08:40
ali1234http://paste.ubuntu.com/7202334/08:40
ali1234that should do it08:41
ali1234builds but not tested08:41
ochosiok, then ideally let's get brainwash to put it in a package in his PPA so ppl can test it08:41
ochosiso i presume that this'll only affect indicators that have upstart jobs08:42
ali1234i don't have a /usr/local/ panel at the moment so i can't test if it works at all08:42
ochosithe others will still get a desktop file in xdg/autostart08:42
ali1234yes08:42
ochosiok, sounds good08:42
ali1234hang on let me upload it to xfce git08:43
ochosianyhow, i'll test it in advance08:43
ochosiah08:43
ochosiyeah08:43
ochosithat makes sense08:43
ochosiif it works we can also ask andrzejr_ to merge the patch08:43
ochosibut anyway, even uploading this as a xubuntu patch should be fine08:44
Unit193ochosi: When you poke them again, poke about actually tagging a release?08:45
ochosipoke whom?08:45
ali1234ochosi: uploaded. should appear in a few minutes08:47
Unit193ochosi: Whoever has the power, I'd think tedge.08:47
knomegood idea Unity19308:47
ochosiwait, Unity193? who's that?09:03
ochosiknome: i think about the wallpaper upload, you could ask dholbach (same as for removing ibus from the seed)09:04
brainwashochosi: so simply disabling it is not possible?09:05
ochosinot sure yet09:06
ochosibtw, there's something for your PPA09:07
ochosihttp://git.xfce.org/users/ajb/xfce4-indicator-plugin/09:07
ochosiwould be nice if you could put that one up there for testing09:07

ochosinot really, have no idea how to do that sort of packaging stuff09:13

knomewhy do you need me?09:22
ochosilet me parrot that back to you :)09:22
brainwashlooks like there was/is some systemd mess up 09:28
brainwashnow is the perfect time to break things :)09:28
brainwashochosi: done09:30
ochosithanks brainwash 09:30
ochosii'll send a quick call for testing to the ML09:31
brainwashany news about the autostart entries?09:31
brainwashor will they stay visible?09:31
ochosithat is the least of worries09:32
ochosilet's first get them to autostart again09:32
ochosiali1234, brainwash: indicator-plugin upstart fix seems to work fine!09:43
ali1234cool. needs to test with two plugins (two panels) though09:43
ochosido they have to be on separate panels?09:43
ali1234i'm not sure what will happen if you have two and remove one09:43
ali1234well, no probably not09:43
ali1234just two plugins09:43
ochosiah, you mean cause then one will kill the indicator :)09:44
ali1234but normal use case they would be on different panels09:44
ochosiwell that's not a problem09:44
ochosiusers can then restart their session to the worst09:44
ali1234i think it should work09:44
ochosii just added one09:44
ochosiand then removed it again09:44
ochosino breakage09:44
ali1234it should work if upstart is sensible :)09:44
ali1234we're going to have to fix this all over again for systemd you know09:45
ochosior do you want me to add one and then restart my session and then remove it to be sure?09:45
ochosiyeah, but not for 14.0409:45
ali1234try restarting the panel too09:45
ali1234it's going to run upstart whenever the plugin loads, and kill it whenever it stops09:45
ochositook them <1sec to show up09:45
ochosibut obviously they got restarted when i restarted the panel09:45
ali1234make sure you do not have like 20 copies of upstart running09:45
ochosii have a few upstart-dbus-br processes09:46
ochosi(309:46
ochosi)09:46
ochosiother than that it looks sane09:46
ali1234seems good then09:46
ochosiyup09:47
ochosialso tried with multiple panel restarts09:47
ochosiand multiple plugins09:47
ochosiand adding/removing them09:47
ochosiit's pretty solid09:47
ali1234what if you kill indicator-sound-service09:47
ali1234or whatever it is called09:47
ali1234does it restart?09:47

brainwashochosi, ali1234: starting the app indicator via upstart seems to be slower for me than using the autostart entry, so nm-applet always loads as normal tray icon12:15
ali1234that's because it starts later12:16
ali1234there's not much i can do about that12:16
brainwashstart the app indicator via autostart?12:18
ali1234all you have to do is start the app indicator before nm-applet12:19
brainwashthat is obvious, but how should we do it?12:19
ali1234i don't know12:22
ali1234ask tedg how he'd do it :)12:22
ali1234if you start indicator-application unconditionally, then you won't get a nm-applet icon if the indicator-plugin is not loaded12:23
brainwashbut we did it like this all the time?12:27
brainwash!12:27
ali1234previously we used dbus activation12:27
ali1234everything was loaded on demand12:28
ali1234and it all just worked12:28
ali1234when we get systemd we can go back to doing it that way12:28
ali1234the problem is upstart sucks12:28
brainwashshould we patch xfce4-session to hide autostart launchers which contain "nodisplay=true"?12:29
ali1234i don't know12:30
ali1234i think that is supposed to hide icons from menus12:30
ali1234check the xdg-desktop specs...12:30
brainwashI think so too12:30
ali1234http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/latest/ar01s05.html12:31
ali1234NoDisplay means "this application exists, but don't display it in the menus".12:31
brainwashali1234: or we request to remove Xfce from "onlyshowin="12:56
brainwashindicator-session was launched, but Xfce is not even listed in "onlyshowin="12:57
ali1234i don't know what problem you are referring to here12:59
brainwashindicator autostart entries visible in settings manager > session and startup13:03
ali1234how would removing xfce from onlyshowin= help with that?13:04
brainwashit will hide the entries13:04
ali1234hmm13:04
brainwashand it works13:04
ali1234okay13:04
ali1234but how do they get started then?13:05
brainwashall my indicators still load13:05
ali1234okay, that's a bug then13:05
brainwashwith your patch13:05
ali1234mostly likely that will happen13:05
ali1234probably still some pending patches13:05
ali1234you'd have to ask tedg about this13:05
brainwashso you mean, that if we remove XFCE from showonlyin, the indicator should not start anymore?13:06
ali1234it should not be in both13:07

Unit193pleia2: Yes, and you have to mouse over each and every one to find out what they are, and the edge ones go off screen. :/20:56
pleia2oh, I thought your two comments were related20:57
pleia2desktop icons and bug tracker20:57
Unit193Hah, nooo.  My mind doesn't work like that. :--D20:57
pleia2mouseover is annoying, but the edge ones don't go off the screen in chrome20:58
Unit193Firefox, latest here.20:59
knomeUnit193, i've committed a fix for the situation where bug tooltips do not fit in the viewport21:02
Unit193OK, that'll help some, thanks.21:05
Unit193I take it I can't get a text list of bugs with the icons next to, rather than instead of?21:06
knomeUnit193, i'll be looking at several visual enhancements for the tracker later, but i'm waiting to get the pending ones in first21:07
Unit193Great, thanks.21:07
knomeno problem21:07
knomeclearly, we need the list of bugs to be filterable21:07
knomeat least by which product the bug was filed from21:08
knomeeg. only show bugs filed from xubuntu with this testcase21:08
lennyIs moving between workspaces with the scroll wheel no longer a thing?21:09
pleia2yeah21:09
pleia2(referring to knome)21:09
brainwashlenny: it can be enabled, but it's disabled by default starting with 14.0421:10
lennybrainwash: Probably a good thing. It confused me when I started out. But now I'm used to it, how do I re-enable it?21:11
brainwashsettings manager > window manager tweaks21:12
brainwashI think21:12
brainwashI cannot check right now21:12
lennyI'll explore :) 21:12
lennysettings manager > window manager tweaks > Workspaces, thanks.21:13

brainwashif you want to know why this change was made21:14
lennyThanks. As I said I agree with the change, just happen to like it myself.21:15
knomeUnit193, if you have other bugs or improvements you'd like to see in the tracker, file them in LP, and i'll probably get to them21:15
Unit193knome: Mmm, didn't think the first was something $others were interested in.21:18
knometext list?21:18
knomei'm very interested in that21:18
knomebecause it allows a much quicker overview21:18
knomei hate having to hover over >5 bugs21:18
Unit193There was too many, I skipped that part.21:19
Unit193(I did happen to find the Debian background one though!)21:19
knomeheh, yeah21:19
knomei also wrote a new cool feature for the tracker...21:19
knomed'n'd a bug link to any spot on the bug text field, and it's added and formatted nicely to the list21:20
lderanawesome21:20
knomeif we had a bug list, you could simply have a button for each bug, and clicking that would add it to the list21:20
slickymasterknome: I am now21:37
tedxubuhello. is anyone available to walk me through the upgrade image testing request elfy posted?21:39
knomeslickymaster, i'm going off, but if you are around tomorrow, we could look at the tour page21:40
slickymasterI'll be around tomorrow knome. I'm with my kid and the weather will be awfull, so we'll be stucked at home21:41
knometedxubu, pretty sure someone can, just wait patiently21:41
knomeslickymaster, that's not good... :)21:41
knomeslickymaster, well, for you and the kid21:41
slickymasteryeah, he'll have to play indoors which is kind of meh21:41
knomefootball indoors? please dad!21:42
slickymasterlol21:42
slickymasterwe'd love it21:42
slickymasters/we/he21:42
knomelol21:42
slickymasterbut I'll be around for sure, in the afternoon21:42
knomebetter stick to less damage-prone variants, like the board version ;)21:42
knomeyep, let's see if i'm around at that time21:43
knomeif not, then no problem21:43
slickymasternext wek won't be so crazy at work for me, so I'll have some more free time during the day21:43
slickymasterif we don't manage to meet tomorrow that is21:44
knomemhm21:44
knomeit's not critical; as long as we do it before release21:44
slickymasteryes, but I think we'll be safe21:45
knomeabsolutely21:45
knomei'll notice you when i'm getting nervous :P21:45
knomewhich is far down the road21:45
slickymasterthere won't be a need for that21:46
knomeyep ;)21:46
knomehttp://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2014/04/xubuntu-14-04-default-wallpaper21:46
lderan\o/21:46
Noskcaj_Should i make the merge proposal for the xfwm4 maximise fix now or does it need more testing21:47
slickymasterI saw it, I commented with pleia2 that if the color palette was richer it was almost like some early Kandinsky's work21:47
Noskcaj_I  also have some thunar patches ready to merge too. http://paste.ubuntu.com/7205154/21:47
knomeslickymaster, haha, well thanks :)21:48
Noskcaj_nice wallpaper knome 21:48
slickymasterI assumed that at some point you were thinking about Bauhaus school21:48
knometa ta21:48
knomeactually the development was quite straightforward21:49
slickymasterhey Noskcaj_ how are you?21:49
knomei got the idea in my head one day, then it took me more days to think about it, then i just "did it"21:49
RFlemingknome, came up as my default this afternoon :)21:49
knomegetting the colors/the rest of the wallpaper took longer time to *decide*21:50
slickymasterit's really awsome knome, and you do deserve to be congratulated on it21:50
Noskcaj_slickymaster, Pretty good. Just wishing that stupid dev pc i'm trying to make would work. How are you?21:50
knomeglad you like it, and happy it was worth the UIFe...21:50
slickymasterthankfull that the week is over, thanks for asking21:50
Unit193knome: And the bonus wallpapers! ;)21:50
slickymasterthat UIFe id refused could start a riot among the Xubuntu ranks :)21:51
slickymasters/id/if21:51
knomeUnit193, bogus? ;P21:51
lderanknome, aye it is very good :)21:53
* knome bows again21:53
knomeand, if you have other colors in mind, feel free to propose21:53
knomewe are planning to do a blog article about alternative schemes21:53
knomeone option: http://temp.knome.fi/.w/trusty-yellow.png21:54
knomeanother WIP for Unit193: http://temp.knome.fi/.w/black.png21:54
slickymasterI like Unit193's21:55
slickymastersober and impressive21:56
knomeit has a banding problem though21:56
slickymasterthe elipses in the background?21:57
knomeyes21:57
slickymasterkinda like those21:57
knomei guess it's a matter of taste21:57
knomeand the worse monitor you have, the less you will notice it21:57
slickymasterremembers me those posters from the 70's21:58
lderanvery true21:58
lderando like the yellow one tho21:58
knomethe yellow palette is courtesy of simon21:58
knometo not take all the credit ;)21:58
slickymasternot as much as the blue and the dark ones21:58
knomei like the yellow one too, but not as much as a wallpaper21:59
knomedoing a wallpaper in authentic 70's style is much harder than accidental banding problems :P21:59
slickymasteryeah, I know22:00
knomebut it's an interesting idea22:00
slickymasterbut the first thing that crossed my mind was those blackxpoitation movie posters22:00
knomedoesn't ring a bell22:01
slickymasterknome: didn't you ever saw Shaft22:04
slickymaster?22:04
slickymasterthat's a typical example of a blacksploitation movie22:05
slickymasterTranatino sort of celebrated and paid a tribute to that genre of cinema in Jackie Brown22:06
slickymasteror better, with his movie Jackie Brown22:06
knomeslickymaster, i'm bad with movies :)22:07
brainwashNoskcaj_: the menu-icon patch for thunar adds icons for "open in new tab/window"22:08
slickymasterbut we shouldn't be discussing this were. Xubuntu lead might show up and kick us all the way till -off22:08
knomehah :P22:08
brainwashNoskcaj_: so it only replaces the generic folder icon for "open with default application"22:09
brainwashNoskcaj_: the xfwm4 maximize patch works for me, but I did not open any special/weird windows yet22:09
Noskcaj_brainwash, I think the xfwm4 one is mostly targeted at uniquity22:10
brainwashnah, mostly targeting dialog windows :)22:10
brainwashactually non-resizable windows22:11
brainwashand the installer window seems to be one of them22:11
Noskcaj_well yeah. Ubiquity is just where i found it22:11
brainwashand what about abiword? :P22:12
brainwashwe got 3 patches22:12
brainwashor new stable release + 1 patch (about dialog icon fix)22:12
brainwashNoskcaj_: we also have a patch for garcon https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1070922:19
ubottubugzilla.xfce.org bug 10709 in Applications Menu "Some icons not being displayed after upgrade to xfce4-panel-4.11.0" [Normal,New]22:19
Noskcaj_ok. I'll do the garcon one now. As i said before, you should probably talk to the debian maintainer for abword22:20
Noskcaj_brainwash, I'll add OvenWerk1's patch for garcon too. bug 121351822:26
ubottubug 1213518 in garcon (Ubuntu) "xfce-applications.menu merges in a non-standard way. default overrides merge" [Low,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/121351822:26
brainwashok22:27
brainwashmmh22:27
brainwash"The way the .menu is currently done matches what GNOME is doing"22:27
brainwashis it safe to include the patch despite the last comment?22:28
brainwashwell, not counting my generic comment :D22:29
Noskcaj_maybe not.22:30
Noskcaj_I'll just prepare the other one for the time being22:30
brainwashthanks :)22:34
brainwashwe need someone to merge the xubuntu-default-settings stuff22:36
brainwashto end the wallpaper madness22:36
brainwashand maybe xfdesktop + 2 upstream patches22:37
brainwashbut maybe xfdesktop 4.11.6 is already scheduled to be released soon22:39
Noskcaj_brainwash, Should  garcon get the fix to https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10212 as well?22:46
ubottubugzilla.xfce.org bug 10212 in General "Opens links in browser" [Normal,New]22:46
Noskcaj_And isn't micah the only one who can merge default-settings stuff?22:47
brainwashsadly22:48
brainwashthe garcon patch looks ok22:48
brainwashit's a nice bonus if we add it, but not really necessary22:49
brainwashNoskcaj_: can't anyone of the ubuntu devs merge the default-settings branch and release a new version?22:59
Noskcaj_brainwash, yes, actually. it's xubuntu-dev, which is lionel, micah, and core-dev22:59
brainwashok, I'll try to ask the ubuntu guys later23:00
brainwashalready asked about abiword23:01
Noskcaj_I just sent an email to the debian maintainer for abiword. i'll let you know if he replys23:04
brainwashawesome, thank you :)23:04
