[00:21] ochosi, brainwash: With regard to the two sessions xubuntu/xfce, I personally think this is a DE package problem with all the DEs. The DE meta should include a -settings package that a flavour could ommit. A flavour would supply it's own -settings package. I do not know which xfce package installs the xfce.desktop file for the session, but if it is a lite enough package it could be replaced with the xubuntu-settings package. [00:22] maybe that dumb.. feel free to tell me so :) [00:27] First problem is that xfce4-settings is not the package that adds the session. [00:45] xfce4-session does that. This makes enough sense that I hesitate to suggest it be moved to xfce4-settings. [03:40] would someone please only ship this distro with themes that support both gtk2 and gtk3? evince looks ugly with over a half of the themes [03:51] gry: Very few themes should be shipped by default already, and all should support both. [03:52] Can you name one of the themes that doesn't? [05:58] Unit193: it did not nuke the extra ones during the upgrade then. 'Oxydgen' theme is in the list and it doesn't. [06:03] Not sure where that one comes from, but sounds like the KDE one. [06:06] Unit193: "dpkg -S /usr/share/themes/Xfce-redmondxp" -- "gtk2-engines-xfce: /usr/share/themes/Xfce-redmondxp". This one does not have gtk3 support either, or whatever else prevents it from theming evince properly. [06:07] Yes, that'd be GTK3 since evince is a GTK3 application. [06:36] so... it's shipped but it does not support gtk 3 ? [07:01] gry: the themes that are shipped fully support gtk3: Albatross, Bluebird, Greybird, Numix, and Orion [07:01] themes that are included in the xfce packages may not support gtk3 as upstream xfce is still not gtk3 [07:02] but the only themes we ship are in the package "shimmer-themes" [07:03] can I like remove gtk2-engines-xfce package then? it's odd, I didn't install it manually [07:04] yes, that should be fine. it will warn you if there are any packages that will also be removed [07:07] I removed gtk2-engines-xfce but it didn't remove that theme. Odd - package problem? [07:07] hard to say [07:09] ok, I need to go to bed [07:09] be back tomorrow, night all [07:26] bluesabre: Good night! [07:35] Unit193: is -core in a test worthy state? [07:35] I'd say so. [07:35] The more review the happier I am though. [07:36] ok - so we'll sort out a call soon for that [07:38] Right, I'm going to have to figure out a way *to* test it... [07:38] Unit193: when I booted the utopic yesterday - installed the base system, but -core was not in the list to install? [07:39] You'd have to add my repo, and tasks won't be there yet. [07:39] ok [07:40] so when we're at that state we'll be closer to getting people to test it I'd say [07:41] I need someone to merge it in, then, also maybe upload. So, vote on it before testing happens? :D [07:41] :) [07:42] ochosi: just so you know - I have tested the xfpm business with the power buttons on whiskermenu and on the panel action button plugin [08:16] morning everyone [08:18] elfy: so for you it all works? [08:19] well i personally think there might be a few other quirks, maybe even a few more bugs in xfpm [08:19] after all, xfpm has been unmaintained for 2yrs or so [08:20] so i'm not too concerned about all those other things that ppl sneak into their test-feedback [08:23] bluesabre, ochosi: trello api? maybe, but what's the point of using trello if we need to modify it to our will ;) [08:24] the point is it's already better than lp in some respects [08:24] furthermore, i'd first have to learn trello more to understand all the terms [08:24] but sure... i guess i can have a look at that [08:24] well, "learn trello"... :) it's really not all that complex [08:24] anyway, for the moment we're also fine as is [08:25] well i don't mean "learn trello", i mean actually understanding the technical terms in their api docs and how they are supposed to work [08:26] if we use the trello api, where are we pulling that stuff? [08:29] ochosi: yea - all that works as expected for me [08:29] knome: not sure what the plan there would be [08:30] the most interesting aspect would be support for updating bug-status from launchpa [08:30] d [08:30] right... [08:30] but that needs server-power or something [08:30] that sounds like maintaining work ;) [08:30] so writing bug-status to trello cards [08:30] it would also need the trello cards to be using a very simple and strict markup to keep the script small [08:31] well i guess the bugs would just have the LP link in the title/description [08:31] and the bugstatus could also be part of the description [08:31] so it's easy enough to change it with a script [08:31] then ppl can still use comments etc in the trello card and assign it to somebody etc [08:32] the issue i see here [08:32] trouble with that as it stands - a link in a comment is clickable - a link in a card title is not [08:32] is that i think we'd have to cron LP to probe for the bug changes [08:32] or set up something else that gets notifications form LP [08:32] *from [08:32] i don't know if they offer an API for output [08:37] discuss it, write a spec what you'd like to do, and then i'll look at it :) [08:40] elfy: yeah, but i guess that's solveable somehow [08:40] e.g. paste the LP link again in the first comment [08:40] we should discuss that with the kubuntu folks too, if they also use trello such a lot [08:44] I'm still not sure that this isn't trying to use a tool to do something that we've already got a suitable tool for tbh [08:45] yeah, it's about having everything in one place, not about not having a suitable tool [08:46] mmm [08:58] brainwash: say, just so that i know, are you looking into the xdg-screensaver issue? [09:08] Noskcaj_: so you'll be around more regularly again now? [09:08] ochosi, yep [09:08] going to be a few day till i'm all set up though [09:09] cool [09:09] wb [09:10] thaks [09:10] *thanks [09:15] elfy: say, does utopic already have gtk3.12? [09:17] !info libgtk-3-0 utopic [09:17] libgtk-3-0 (source: gtk+3.0): GTK+ graphical user interface library. In component main, is optional. Version 3.10.8-0ubuntu2 (utopic), package size 1884 kB, installed size 6753 kB [09:19] well done :) [09:19] i'll try to remember that syntax then [09:21] wut [09:22] elfy: i put down some notes in -features wrt gtk3.12 that might also be of interest to you [09:22] it's just something we should monitor [09:23] and maybe ask the ubuntu-desktop guys when they plan on landing 3.12 [09:23] ta [09:23] i'm not sure what they're gonna do with respect to those gnome "technologies" like headerbar and menus [09:24] they patched it all out in 14.04, would be important for us to know what the plan is in 14.10 [09:24] yea [09:25] I watch the m/l's for them I'm sure [09:52] ochosi: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=745340 [09:52] Debian bug 745340 in xdg-utils "/usr/bin/xdg-screensaver: "xdg-screensaver reset" does not reset DPMS timeout" [Important,Open] [09:52] I still don't have access to my test system with xubuntu trusty right now [09:53] so I did not do any experiments === brainwash_ is now known as brainwash [10:26] brainwash: right, maybe link that bug-report to ours [10:26] * ochosi takes off towards a BBQ [10:26] will be back later today/tonight [10:43] bring back something nice for us :) [10:56] ochosi, did you know about harvest.ubuntu.com? [10:56] Mirv mentioned it before when we met, and now ubuntu women are working to improve it [16:32] knome: Yeah, but ignore it now since it's not as useful. [16:43] good day, my xfce loving friends [16:44] hi pleia2 [17:20] saw trellobot mentioned, if we need to run one I'm happy to give a shell account for it [17:21] which reminds me, I need to reboot that VM soon so we can get our ram upgrade (hooray) [17:21] * pleia2 adds planning that to todo list [17:22] which is where we differ - I'd be planning to add that to the list [17:22] hehe [17:22] and then get all Mediterranean about it :) [17:22] planning is a thing, I need to define a maintenance window, inform all users.. [17:22] :) [17:23] consider this one informed :p [17:34] pleia2: I have it running now, deps are ruby+some gems if you're interested (it uses the cinch framework.) [17:36] Unit193: well, do you need a server spot to host it on, or are you ok with running it? [17:36] don't want to take it away from you if your server works :) just offering [18:03] pleia2: I think I'm good, unless someone else thinks otherwise. Thanks though! [18:23] Howdy, I'm am having a problem getting some services started. Initctl is giving me an error that com.ubuntu.Upstart doesn't exist [21:09] knome: no, never heard of harvest [21:10] Unit193: wanna package up this plugin in a PPA? https://github.com/andrzej-r/xfce4-pulseaudio-plugin [21:11] for this kind of stuff and xfdashboard we really should get some sort of extras PPA [21:11] I have one. :P [21:12] so that'll be 3 then ochosi :) [21:12] yeah, that'd make 3 [21:12] initially i hadn't thought of making a distinction between the dev-ppa and -staging [21:13] but the distinction between dev and extras/apps was always thought of [21:13] yep [21:13] certainly makes sense [21:13] not sure how many apps we'll really accumulate there [21:13] but who knows, it might not hurt to have the opportunity [21:14] doesn't matter much I guess - just not having loads from different people will help :) [21:14] At this point, it's just updating xfdashboard which is easy enough, if it doesn't involve Ubuntu. :P [21:14] ochosi: See -> #xfce-dev [21:15] brb [21:49] re [21:50] Unit193: yeah, i read the backlog [21:50] i'm not very surprised xfdashboard won't make it into debian [21:50] Mhmm, as I said, figured may as well ask. [21:50] yeah, absolutely [21:50] better to know for sure [21:51] Actually easy to talk to that time. https://bitbucket.com/unit193/xfdashboard/ [21:51] knome: was there a specific reason you asked about harvest? are you proposing it for xubuntu in some way? [21:51] well, i thought it might be a useful tool for figuring out possible pledges [21:52] right [21:52] well, from my pov, i wouldn't personally even get involved in pledges [21:52] sure [21:52] as long as -team doesn't have funds [21:52] or a way of receiving funds [21:52] and i guess it's generally a nice thing [21:52] if you want to find bugs [22:35] crap, nobody ever noticed that indicator-power looks like crap with the normal elementary-xfce icons? (i.e. not elementary-xfce-dark/er) [22:35] ->double-crap [22:36] * ochosi switches back to elementary-xfce-darker quickly and forgets what he has seen
