jussiwell then. apart from the crazy install rubbish mentioned earlier, 14.04 install seems to have worked fine. I havent found anything not working yet, all appears good04:56
sneleshadeslayer: I can confirm that muon updater bug is fixed :) thank you for fixing it.06:00
sneleapachelogger: was it you that fixed grub to show "Kubuntu" instead of "Ubuntu"? 06:03
valoriemy restart today still showed "ubuntu"06:04
sneleapachelogger: since latest updates in last few days it again shows "Ubuntu" instead "Kubuntu"06:04
valoriewhich sucks06:04
snelevalorie: yeah. i hate it too06:04
valoriebecause what if people have unity, gnome etc. desktop as well as kubuntu?06:04
valoriewe tell people all the time they can do that06:04
Kalidarnthat's actually one of the things i prefer about fedora06:11
Kalidarnit's "fedora" - "gnome spin", or "kde spin"06:11
Kalidarnbut still the same distribution06:11
Kalidarnpeople often think that ubuntu, kubuntu, lubuntu, xubuntu are actually somehow different distributions06:12
Kalidarnwhen really the only difference is the default environment on the media06:12
valoriewell, insofar as we have separate communities, we do have different distros06:15
valoriewith a common base06:15
Kalidarni guess that's true canonical is only really interested in unity06:15
valoriebut then not all of us are separate, either06:15
Kalidarntrue.06:15
valoriethese days, they seem interested in profit, no matter what that takes06:16
Kalidarni prefer KDE because it keeps me neutral06:16
valorieneutral from what?06:16
Kalidarna distribution, i can use it on virtually any distribution i choose06:16
valorieI prefer KDE because it feels like home06:16
Kalidarnso if for some reason i am forced to use centos/rhel i can use KDE.06:17
valoriecommunity is awesome06:17
Kalidarnthat too, the amarok guys are really helpful.06:17
valorienothing against the gnome people, they are cool as well06:17
valorieI started in amarok06:17
Kalidarnyeah i don't mind gnome as much, i was thinking more in regards to unity.06:17
valorieso far, unity is canonical only06:17
Kalidarnyeah.06:18
valorieand i don't think they are interested in community support for it06:18
Kalidarnive always found "KDE" to be more configurable too.06:18
valorieof course06:18
Kalidarnlike even basic things like rotating wallpapers06:18
valoriegnome isn't meant to be configurable06:18
Kalidarnto do that in gnome when i last used it you needed a python script on a cron job :P06:18
valorieit has other interests06:18
Kalidarnwhich isn't exactly user friendly :P06:18
Kalidarnespecially when out of the box, that's the kind of functionality you can do on macosx/windows06:19
valoriepeople who want to configure stuff don't choose gnome06:19
Kalidarnthat is why i disagree with gnome/unity "easy to use == has no features" mentality06:19
lordievaderGood morning.06:19
Kalidarnthat said my KDE configuration is pretty stock.06:19
Kalidarngnome probably has that feature now though, and it was unity anyway i found I couldn't do it with06:20
valorieI'll have to confess I've spent less than an hour with anything but KDE06:23
valorieI just can't deal with the feeling of being confined06:23
Kalidarnoh i gave every environment more of a chance than that :D06:23
valorieI don't like strait-jackets either06:23
Kalidarni used gnome 2 quite a bit, and i used unity for a good few releases06:24
Kalidarnsomewhere around the 10.04/11.X days06:24
Kalidarnand i think at that point i found KDE less crashyy06:24
KalidarnKDE before 4.8 was horrible.06:24
valorieI love it when people have used multiple systems06:25
Kalidarnseems most of the crashes were ironed out after 4.806:25
valorieI've just not been able to bear to do so06:25
Kalidarni've also used XFCE for ages too, a bit before that06:25
Kalidarnand i tried LXDE briefly, but didn't stay with it because well, my computer is powerful why not run a powerful environment.06:25
KalidarnLXDE and Razor-Qt merged, it's a good server environment, though06:26
Kalidarnalthough in the case of a server i'd probably run something like TWM06:26
jussiyou peoples might want to take this discussion to #kubuntu-offtopic ;)06:29
valoriethanks jussi06:30
* valorie is there06:30
soeegood morning06:31
soeewhat was the command to upgrade form 13.10 to 14.04 ?06:59
jussisoee: currently:  do-release-upgrade -d 07:02
jussiiirc07:02
soeein the docs there is info to use: kubuntu-devel-release-upgrade but thers no such command07:02
soeehttps://wiki.kubuntu.org/TrustyTahr/Alpha2/Kubuntu07:02
lordievadersoee: That's the first time I see that command, I recall 'do-release-upgrade -d' too.07:06
soeelordievader, yeah me to just googled it07:07
tsimpsonubuntu-release-upgrader-qt: /usr/bin/kubuntu-devel-release-upgrade07:13
tsimpsonit's a one-liner script: kdesudo "do-release-upgrade -m desktop -f DistUpgradeViewKDE -d"07:14
soeetsdgeos, thanks for the explanation07:19
soeetsimpson, ^07:19
valoriethe 'kubuntu-devel' version worked for awhile07:21
valorieperhaps there were problems and it was deprecated07:21
apacheloggersnele: that's because the core distribution is called ubuntu07:22
valorieapachelogger: how will people be able to choose in grub between kubuntu/ubuntu/ugnome etc.?07:26
valoriefor awhile it did say "kubuntu"07:26
lordievadervalorie: I think that is up to the latest de that installs a plymouth theme, ofcourse you can change plymouth themes ;)07:28
apacheloggervalorie: yeah, and that it saying there was what broke UEFI botting in 13.10 and prompted the creation for a patch in grub that does nothing more than put 'kubuntu' on equal footing which in turn requires someone to test UEFI every development cycle to make sure the patch actually covers everything, and then one just needs to hope that a corner case test was not forgotten07:29
valorieah07:30
valorieI don't reboot that often anyway except while testing07:30
apacheloggerif someone installs many ubuntus and does so on different distros, then they can still change the name themself07:31
valorieI'm dreading the first uefi box07:31
apacheloggerin fact, they can even change it for uefi because most uefi managers do differentiate between name and loader directory07:31
apacheloggerand as long as only name is changed everything works fine07:31
apacheloggerthe problem is that grub internally derives both loader directory and name from the distribution value07:32
apacheloggerso us setting the distro to kubuntu makes grub think there should be a uefi loader directory kubuntu/, which of course is not there, so boom07:32
valoriemost strange07:32
apacheloggerI am seeing unbarable amounts of amarok crashery08:23
snelewhenever I have tried amarok in last few years I was able to crash it within minutes. on other hand clementine is rock solid since day one08:28
sneleso remove amarok, install clementine when i install kubuntu. sad but true08:29
* apachelogger prefers using free software08:30
valoriehmmm08:35
valorieI found one crash and reported it08:35
valoriebut it is just in podcasts08:35
valorieI had to run it in gdb to get a backtrace08:36

ubottuLaunchpad bug 1038522 in ubiquity (Ubuntu Trusty) "[kde] manual partitioning in installer crashes when handling many partitions" [High,Triaged]12:24
apacheloggershadeslayer: that's what agateau is looking at12:24
shadeslayerpft12:24
shadeslayerwell then12:24
shadeslayeragateau: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7249408/12:24
shadeslayersame TreeItem crash12:25
agateaushadeslayer: uh, this paste as base64-encoded core-dump in it!12:25
shadeslayeragateau: yeah, it's from a vbox12:26
apacheloggerdon't open it in kate12:26
shadeslayerlive system12:26
apacheloggerit will fall over dead12:26
apacheloggershadeslayer: you know12:26
agateaushadeslayer: do you have a reliable way to reproduce?12:26
apacheloggershadeslayer: you could probably apport that stuff so it ends up on errors.ubuntu.com :P12:26
apacheloggerbecause I fail to find it there12:26
shadeslayeragateau: just make loads of small partitions :P12:26
agateauk12:26
shadeslayerapachelogger: any recommendations on how to send it off to e.u.c ?12:27
shadeslayerbecause the blue splash didn't pop up12:27
apacheloggerrun apport-kde I guess12:27
apacheloggerperhaps ubiquity kde ui lacks integration with apport12:28
apacheloggerand that's why we have no reports on errors.ubuntu ^^12:28
Riddellyes it does12:29
apacheloggershadeslayer: you could look at the release notes thing btw12:29
* apachelogger is heading out for an appointment in 30 minutes12:31
apacheloggerif anyone needs something, now is the time to whine :P12:31
shadeslayerpickles would be nice12:33

shadeslayeragateau: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7249463/12:35
agateaushadeslayer: /dev/sda-1... that sounds bad12:39
agateauah no12:39
shadeslayerthe full log is 17M :(12:40
agateauubiquity logging is like that12:42
apacheloggerbetter too much logging than too little I always say12:42
shadeslayerhah12:42
shadeslayerhah12:42
shadeslayerapachelogger: so clicking on update this installer doesn't really do anything12:43
shadeslayerand then the label disappears12:43
apacheloggeryeah, because its uptodate12:43
apachelogger-.-12:43
apacheloggersee what I wrote earlier...12:43
shadeslayerso why does it say "update this installer" ...12:44
apacheloggerbecause it does not know12:44
apacheloggerup until it hides the label12:44
apacheloggerbecasue then it knows12:44
apacheloggerwhich is why it hides the label (presumably)12:44
shadeslayerwhy not do it the other way around, only show it when it knows there's an update12:45
shadeslayerdon't show it otherwise12:45
apacheloggerI do not know, that is not the problem I have with the showing anyway12:47
apacheloggerthe problem si that it also links to release notes12:47
apacheloggerand if the installer is uptodate you can't access the release notes12:47
apacheloggerwhich is le shit12:47
shadeslayereh12:47
shadeslayerwfm12:48
apacheloggerso the question is a) why does the label also include the release notes b) can it be detangled (which is not really in the scope for 14.04 at this point) c) fix the release notes link to do the drop_privs subprocess thing the gtk gui does12:48
shadeslayerapachelogger: http://imgur.com/QLXHyWn12:49
agateauapachelogger: from what I read, the code is using separate strings, so it should be possible to only show the installer update12:52
Mamarokso, the baloo_file_extractor ist using 25% CPU permanently, what can I do against that, other than not running it?12:56
MamarokvHanda: ^12:57

agateaushadeslayer: what were the spec of the partitions you created to crash ubiquity (fs type, primary/logical, size, mount point...)?14:16
shadeslayerall ext4 14:16
shadeslayerI had a bunch of 1000 MB partitions in the beginning14:17
agateauah boom, just got it14:17
shadeslayerawesome14:17
ghostcubehmm we dont have an alternate animore? or do we?14:20
ghostcubealternate.iso14:20
shadeslayergood question, I thought alternate ISO's were generated for LTS's ?14:22
yofelwe never made a case for that14:23
yofelwe dropped them, completely14:23
ghostcubehm ok so i would need to install xubuntu first on my old dell laptop14:27
ghostcubeits non pae14:28
ghostcube:D14:28
yofelnetinst should work, no? Or does that not have a NIC?14:28
ghostcubehmm ah yes this would be an opption14:28
shadeslayerI hate python14:29
yofelthat, or ubuntu-server14:29
shadeslayerand it's shitty unicode formatting issues14:29
shadeslayerfor some reason the language QComboBox shows the Romanian entry fine14:29
shadeslayerbut getting the text makes it garbled14:29
shadeslayeror well14:30
shadeslayercurrentText loses the accent on the n 14:30
shadeslayeragateau: ^^ ideas why that would be happening?14:31
agateaushadeslayer: not really. How are you reading currentText?14:32
shadeslayeragateau: QComboBox::currentText()14:32
shadeslayerwhich converts it into a python str14:32
agateaushadeslayer: are you printing the value, or showing it in in a QLabel?14:33
shadeslayeragateau: passing it through misc.utf8 also makes no difference14:33
shadeslayeragateau: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-installer/ubiquity/trunk/view/head:/ubiquity/plugins/ubi-language.py#L52814:34
shadeslayeragateau: the GTK code passes it through misc.utf8 : http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-installer/ubiquity/trunk/view/head:/ubiquity/plugins/ubi-language.py#L22114:35
shadeslayerI tried doing that, but it still comes up with the same error :/14:35
agateaushadeslayer: have you tried not using str() on it?14:36
shadeslayeragateau: yeah, same error14:37
agateaushadeslayer: running out of ideas, sorry :/14:41
Quintasanshadeslayer: Python still can't into Unicode?14:41
Quintasanbloody hell it's 2014 already14:41
shadeslayerQuintasan: looks like it14:41
shadeslayerQuintasan: it's weird, the QComboBox displays the value correctly14:42
shadeslayerbut when you fetch the current value back into python, it's muddled up with \x03 at the end14:42

Quintasanyofel: Pick one.14:46
yofelI'll take latter :P14:46
QuintasanDidn't we just get more problems when migrating to Py3?14:46
yofelwell, yes. But would you rather have PHP5 where folks are removing old stuff all the time requiring you to rewrite code once a year?14:47
Quintasanyofel: I'd rather use something else.14:48
yofelperl? :D14:48
yofelI need to get into ruby. Like seriously14:49
QuintasanYou do not expect me to use Perl do you? :P14:49
Quintasanyofel: Ruby has it's own share of problems but I don't think Unicode is one of them14:49
QuintasanDo we have Qt bindings for Ruby?14:50
yofelwell, smoke based ones14:50
shadeslayerofcourse, Python3 Qt4 has no QString14:58
shadeslayeryay14:58

RiddellQuintasan: lightdm all good afterwards?15:19
QuintasanAssuming we are talking about the most common scenario, that is ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports was added and I first upgraded with that15:20
QuintasanRiddell: I had no problems on VirtualBox nor with my PC15:20
apacheloggershadeslayer: nice15:20
shadeslayerapachelogger: totally fun one week before release >.>15:20
RiddellQuintasan: the more scenarios the better, adding PPAs and installing extra stuff including other flavour meta packages all worth testing15:20
apacheloggergood thing pyqt has no unit tests apparently15:20
QuintasanRiddell: Is there anything in particular I should look for?15:21
apacheloggershadeslayer: it's not there since this week15:21

apacheloggerthere is a bug in eglibc15:24
Quintasanwat15:24
* shadeslayer moves onto next bug15:24

kfunkpy3 strings are already good-enough (tm)15:27
kfunkthey're the shit15:28
apacheloggershadeslayer: try wrapping the string in unicode()15:28
apacheloggeralas, I think pyqt has a conversion problem15:28
apacheloggerbecause it will still need to marshall into a qstring somewhere, and I reckon that broke because python cannot provide a stable language :P15:29
Quintasanshadeslayer, apachelogger: I think that driver manager should prompt me to restart the computer after it's done with installing the drivers.15:29
apachelogger</randomrantery>15:29
apacheloggerQuintasan: that is also not news, I filed a bug about it back in feburary but it did not get fixed in time unfortunately :P15:29
QuintasanBloody hell.15:29
apacheloggeryou really should test more than 4 days before release :P15:29
QuintasanAgreed.15:30
kfunkon related news: the german translations for git messages are so shitty, it's not even funny15:30
shadeslayerapachelogger: I think unicode isn't there in Python3 15:30
Quintasankfunk: You need to talk to git upstream I believe.15:30
QuintasanOr to Launchpad.15:30
shadeslayerapachelogger: "All text is Unicode; however encoded Unicode is represented as binary data"15:31

Quintasanlel15:39
shadeslayerheh15:39
apacheloggerQuintasan: broken pipe = broken pipe (as in the thing you smoke)15:39
shadeslayerkfunk: gtranslate translated that sentence with whistle :)15:40
QuintasanI do believe we that we translate Broken pipe as "Przerwany potok" which would mean "Broken stream" with stream as stream of water.15:40
kfunkwell, indeed, i meant ambiguous in *english*15:40

shadeslayerI understand what's causing the issue, but don't have a proper fix :)16:37
shadeslayerapachelogger: 1182784 investigated, don't have a proper solution :(16:49
shadeslayerxnox: btw still waiting on a answer :)17:26
xnoxshadeslayer: well ubuntu boots into greeter mode _not_ syslinux language chooser.17:28
xnoxshadeslayer: so i guess exposure is less.17:28
shadeslayermoment17:29
shadeslayerxnox: so does Kubuntu, but the reporter is directly changing the keymap via syslinux17:30
agateauapachelogger: shadeslayer: I think I fixed the partition bug. I am up to dev/sda33 right now :)17:31
xnoxshadeslayer: right, ok.17:31
shadeslayerapachelogger: \o/17:31
shadeslayererm17:32
shadeslayeragateau: \o/17:32
agateau:)17:32
vgezerHi Riddell. Sorry for tooo late response. I was away during the day.17:36
shadeslayerxnox: huh, works on Ubuntu :/17:37
agateauwill post a patch tomorrow17:39
* agateau is off17:39
shadeslayeragateau: cheers17:39
xnoxshadeslayer: hm. weird. so how to reproduce on kubuntu? boot -> select what in syslinux? and then which language/keyboard/locations to select?17:40
xnoxshadeslayer: i hope it doesn't depend on the geoip location detection.17:40
shadeslayerxnox: boot -> press F3 as soon as you see the a11y icon -> press F3 to open keymap selection -> select Swiss German keyboard -> start -> set lang to German in ubiquity -> proceed to install17:41
xnoxshadeslayer: thanks!17:42
shadeslayernp17:42
shadeslayerScottK: when's final freeze?17:49
yofelshadeslayer: FF was last thursday?17:50
shadeslayeroh17:51
shadeslayerhm, so zeroconf-ioslave is still at 4.12.9717:52
* shadeslayer will have a look tomorrow17:53
yofelhm, not released in bzr either. Someone worked with outdated files?17:53
ovidiu-florinwhere's ahoneybun?18:02
ovidiu-florindoes anyone know?18:49
shadeslayeryofel: I'd guess19:33
shadeslayerwho uploaded 4.13.0 ?19:33
shadeslayerhm, Riddell , so how come bzr got updated19:34
yofelI think we should add a kde-l10n-like branch check to kubuntu-archive-upload19:34
shadeslayer*nod*19:35
joseovidiu-florin: ping20:10
ovidiu-florinjose: pong20:27
joseovidiu-florin: looks awesome.20:28
ovidiu-florinwhat?20:28
josethe site20:28
joseI have a couple thingies but they should be minimal anyways20:29
ovidiu-florinjose: at wich site are you looking?20:30
ovidiu-florinwhich?20:31
joseovidiu-florin: http://kubwp.geekaliens.com/20:31
ovidiu-florinjose: that was just the test20:31
josefor being a test it looks great20:31
ovidiu-florinhere is the actual site: http://test.kubuntu.co.uk/20:31
ovidiu-florinthe migration does not do certain things, those will have to be done manually I think20:33
joseif you need a hand with anything just let me know, this week I'm basically free20:38
ovidiu-florinwill do 20:40
vgezerovidiu-florin: new site is really cool :)21:11
vgezergood job :)21:11
soeeovidiu-florin: add repeat for background image :)21:13
ovidiu-florinI'll ask for some feedback when the posts are migrated21:19
ovidiu-florinRiddell: are you around?21:30
Riddellhi ovidiu-florin 21:33
ovidiu-florintake a look see http://test.kubuntu.co.uk/21:33
ovidiu-florintest the old urls21:33
ovidiu-florinon this site (domain)21:33
Riddellovidiu-florin: looking nice :)21:35
ovidiu-florinRiddell: I want to ask for some feedback on the mail list. Is this necessary?21:35
ovidiu-florinor can I go ahead with the full migration21:35
ovidiu-florinI only get one go for the full migration21:35
ovidiu-florinI whish I could talk to aaron right now21:36
ovidiu-florinwhere is he?21:36
Riddellsomewhere in america, maybe on easter holiday21:36
joseovidiu-florin: maybe he's on G+?21:36
Riddellovidiu-florin: why do you only have 1 go? what still needs migrated?21:36
joseeaster holidays don't start until Thursday (at least here)21:36
ovidiu-florinRiddell: currently there are only 10 posts migrated21:37
ovidiu-florinthe news posts21:37
ovidiu-florinthis is a demo21:37
Riddellovidiu-florin: will comments be on?21:37
Riddellcos comments on wordpress get a lot of spam21:37
ovidiu-florinand to get all the articles migrated they have to fill my account on their site with some money so I can "pay" for the migration21:38
ovidiu-florinRiddell: they don't have to be on21:38
ovidiu-florinit's just a default21:38
Riddellovidiu-florin: off then please unless we can think of some way to prevent spam21:38
ovidiu-florinI would like some feedback on how the migrated news posts look before I doo the full migration21:38
ovidiu-florinthere is21:39
ovidiu-florinAkismet21:39
joseRiddell: is the instance able to communicate with the outside world?21:39
joseovidiu-florin: you read my mind21:39
Riddellovidiu-florin: still incorrect urls http://test.kubuntu.co.uk/news/trusty-beta-1-available-for-testing vs http://www.kubuntu.org/news/trusty-beta-1-available-testing21:39
Riddellovidiu-florin: and urls not turned into links there21:40
Riddelljose: instance?21:40
joseRiddell: the wordpress instance21:40
joseor box21:40
Riddelljose: it can do whatever we like21:40
josethen Akismet is a good solution for spam21:40
josewe don't have it on canonical-hosted WP as they can't communicate with the outside world, which is why we get lots of spam on the Fridge as an example21:41
ovidiu-florinRiddell: the links are not links because in the drupal post they are not links21:42
ovidiu-florindrupal recognises that they are links and displays them as such21:42
ovidiu-florinbut they are not stored as <a> tags in the DB21:42
ovidiu-florinwordpress knows better than to show links when it's not told to do so.21:43
ovidiu-florinjose: Riddell I use akismet on my blog and it's verry efficient21:43
jose+1 here21:44
ovidiu-florinAkismet only has 1 disadvantage21:45
ovidiu-florinit's usage depends on a company21:45
josethe key?21:45
ovidiu-florinwe can use the freemium option21:45
ovidiu-florinbut it still depends on a closed source server that belongs to a company21:45
ovidiu-florinjose: Riddell any other feedback for the demo migration?21:48
ovidiu-florinI was thinking to send a mail to the mail list and give a 10 hour window for feedback for the demo migration. What do you think?21:48
Riddellovidiu-florin: just the URLs need sorting I think21:48
ovidiu-florinand after that, I'll do the full migration.21:48
Riddellovidiu-florin: go for it21:49
ovidiu-florinRiddell: what do you mean?21:49
ovidiu-florinthe URLs on that page?21:49
Riddellovidiu-florin: 22:39 < Riddell> ovidiu-florin: still incorrect urls http://test.kubuntu.co.uk/news/trusty-beta-1-available-for-testing vs http://www.kubuntu.org/news/trusty-beta-1-available-testing21:49
ovidiu-florinthose are correct21:49
ovidiu-florinthey are just not marked as links by the original author21:49
joseyeah, I can access them both good21:49
Riddellor http://www.kubuntu.org/news/kde-sc-4.12 vs http://test.kubuntu.co.uk/news/kde-applications-and-development-platform-4-12-available21:49
josebtw, can we add a title to the site do it displays good on the tab names?21:50
ovidiu-florinlook: this is the html stored in the DB on the drupal site: Trusty Beta 1, based on KDE SC 4.12.2, is available for Testing. The Beta 1 images can be downloaded at: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/trusty/beta-1/. More information on Kubuntu Trusty Beta 1 can be found here https://wiki.kubuntu.org/TrustyTahr/Beta1/Kubuntu.21:50
ovidiu-florinthere are no <a> tags21:50
vgezerRiddell: you wrote me during the day, but I was away :/21:50
ovidiu-florindrupal just displays them as URLs to the browser21:50
ovidiu-florinbut they are not stored as links21:50
Riddellovidiu-florin: yeah I don't mind too much about the turning URLs in the body text into links, it's the news story URLs themselves that should remain the same21:51
ovidiu-florinRiddell: I can edit that by hand right now21:51
Riddellvgezer: you didn't miss anything, I was just being friendly I think :)21:51
ovidiu-florinThere is a small script that has the old URLs stored and links the new ones and the old one s together21:51
ovidiu-florinthe old ones are still valid21:52
ovidiu-florinthey just get "redirected" to the new one21:52
vgezerRiddell: haha thanks :). I thought maybe you needed some info regarding to the different characters problem that we spoke :)21:52
ovidiu-florineven Google sees them the same21:52
ovidiu-florinit's a 301 redirect21:52
vgezerbecause today you added kubuntu tag iirc21:52
ovidiu-florinRiddell: I've updated the article links http://test.kubuntu.co.uk/news/trusty-beta-1-available-for-testing21:54
Riddellovidiu-florin: nothing at http://test.kubuntu.co.uk/news/kde-sc-4.1221:55
Riddellovidiu-florin: nothing at http://test.kubuntu.co.uk/news/trusty-beta-1-available-testing21:55
ovidiu-florininteresting, it worked for some of the articles21:56
Riddellooh exciting22:00

soeeRiddell: thursday is the release day ?22:07
Riddellyep22:07
soeeok ill test images tomorrow after work22:07
ovidiu-florinRiddell: the problem with the old URLs can be solved by recreating the permalinks in wordpress22:10
ovidiu-florinthat won't be so difficult22:10
ovidiu-florinI can do that manually 22:10
ovidiu-florinthere are only 304 articles22:11
ovidiu-florinit will take a bit, but it's doable22:11
ovidiu-florinjose: can help if he wants22:11
ovidiu-florinRiddell: what do you think?22:11
joseI think I can give a hand with that, for sure22:12
Riddellovidiu-florin: yeah whatever works22:13
ovidiu-florinit's just copy paste22:13
ovidiu-florinok then22:13
Riddellalthough surely it can be scripted, 300 is quite a lot of pasting :)22:14
ovidiu-florinany other feedback besides the URLs?22:14
Riddellnews stories are fine22:14
Riddellthe site itself could do with some tweaks22:15
ovidiu-florinthat can be done even after the migration22:15
Riddellright22:15
ovidiu-florinafter the migration I'll have to do some category cleanup22:15
ovidiu-florinand tags22:15
joseovidiu-florin: if you provide me with an account I'd be happy to help with links22:16
ovidiu-florinjose: will do22:16
josecool22:16
ovidiu-florinjose: do you want it now or after the migration?22:17
joseovidiu-florin: if you send it now, then I can start doing it now22:17
ovidiu-florinjose: there are only 10 articles22:17
joseoh, then I can have it done in a couple mins22:18
ovidiu-florinand 2 so far don't work22:18
Riddelld22:18
ovidiu-florinok, just a moment22:18
ovidiu-florinRiddell: d?22:19
Riddelltypo22:21
ovidiu-florinjose: do I need to instruct you on how to change the permalinks?22:27
joseovidiu-florin: nope, I'm good22:29
ovidiu-floringreat22:29
ovidiu-florinyou can use the quick edit to speed up the process22:29
ovidiu-florinthe /news/ is added by WP22:29
ovidiu-florinyou don't need to add that22:30
joseok!22:31

joseit changes them to dashes22:55
Riddellug22:57
Riddellsilly wordpress22:57
josewant me to leave it as kde-sc-4-12?23:00
RiddellI wonder if a rewrite rule could be made to fix those23:00
Riddellwell workaround rather than fix23:00
josehmm, not sure23:01
Riddells/./-/ can't be too hard23:01
kubotuRiddell meant: "-ell workaround rather than fix"23:01
jose:P23:02
Riddellalthough beyond my capabilities tonight23:02
joseI wouldn't know how to do it either23:02
joseor if I could23:02
Riddellhttpd.conf:  RewriteEngine On23:03
