bluesabre | Unit193: good question | 09:41 |
---|---|---|
ochosi | i'm wondering what to do about the community-submitted wallpapers from 14.04 in 14.10 | 11:00 |
ochosi | not sure we simply wanna install them again by default, or whether we just leave the package in the repos for those who want it | 11:01 |
bluesabre | we run another contest | 11:01 |
ochosi | phu, not sure i have the energy for another contest | 11:02 |
elfy | then if not I think there's no reason to not use the same ones again ;) | 11:02 |
ochosi | well depends, that was a frequent point of criticism (even if it's hard for me to take it too seriously) that we only ship so few wallpapers by default | 11:03 |
ochosi | i really don't wanna do wallpaper contests every release, that's exhausting and the results will hardly be great every time | 11:03 |
elfy | but with the comm ones we ship more now don't we? | 11:04 |
elfy | maybe carry on with the 14.04 ones - if people want to do more they can talk to us | 11:04 |
ochosi | yeah | 11:05 |
ochosi | ah, i misread you there before | 11:05 |
elfy | anyway - I'm not really here - keep almost going | 11:05 |
* ochosi facepalms | 11:05 | |
ochosi | i thought you said there's no reason to use the same ones again | 11:05 |
elfy | yea - thought so - which is why I said it slightly differently :) | 11:05 |
ochosi | guess i need a coffee or some rest, can't decide | 11:05 |
elfy | or both ;) | 11:05 |
elfy | little one now decides she's ready ... bye | 11:05 |
bluesabre | is there an easier way to do it? Seems like using the wiki put a lot of workload on you guys | 11:06 |
bluesabre | anyway, it doesn't really matter to me either way ;) | 11:07 |
ochosi | not only that, there were many crappy submissions and i partly hunted down people who would submit stuff | 11:07 |
ochosi | now that 14.04 is released, i can disclose that most walls we voted in were those i found online before and got the authors to submit them | 11:08 |
ochosi | (well i guess most of you knew that anyway) | 11:09 |
bluesabre | :) | 11:09 |
ochosi | but the voting also took a lot of time | 11:09 |
ochosi | we went through 3 rounds, which was good, but also tiresome | 11:09 |
ochosi | and agreed, the wiki made submissions and everything a lot of work, but it also had its benefits | 11:12 |
bluesabre | Noskcaj: For some reason I cannot inject a new mugshot package into debian... I've got the package here if you want to give it a shot (and not have to package it yourself) | 12:16 |
bluesabre | dget http://www.smdavis.us/tmp/mugshot_0.2.4-1.dsc | 12:16 |
ochosi | bluesabre: i discussed this with satya a few minutes ago, in 14.10 we'll retire albatross | 12:59 |
ochosi | so only greybird, numix, orion and possibly bluebird will remain | 12:59 |
bluesabre | ok, fine by me | 13:00 |
* ochosi downloads utopic daily build | 13:02 | |
ochosi | you've split the shimmer-themes package into individual packages already, right? | 13:03 |
ochosi | if so, feel free to drop albatross anytime | 13:03 |
bluesabre | yes | 13:04 |
ochosi | what about the daily-archive? should that be updated with the new packaging too then? | 13:06 |
bluesabre | the ppa? | 13:07 |
ochosi | yup, this one. https://launchpad.net/~shimmerproject/+archive/ubuntu/daily | 13:08 |
bluesabre | yeah, its split already too | 13:08 |
bluesabre | for utopic | 13:08 |
ochosi | oh | 13:08 |
bluesabre | keeping all of our themes in that one | 13:08 |
bluesabre | so blackbird and albatross will stay there in case they are ever resurrected | 13:08 |
ochosi | basically depends on new contributors picking that up | 13:09 |
bluesabre | yup | 13:09 |
ochosi | don't see myself doing that :> | 13:09 |
bluesabre | ugh, so many differences for builds to work on older gtk | 13:11 |
ochosi | for what, parole 0.7? | 13:11 |
bluesabre | oh wait | 13:11 |
bluesabre | why is it pulling gtk2? | 13:11 |
bluesabre | :\ | 13:11 |
ochosi | huh fun | 13:11 |
bluesabre | I really disliked 13.10 for all the upstream issues | 13:12 |
bluesabre | I went 13.04 -> 14.04 | 13:12 |
ochosi | yeah, never upgraded my gf's laptop to 13.10 and used 14.04 from its early stages | 13:12 |
ochosi | hm nice, the installer for utopic failed :/ | 13:14 |
ochosi | (partitioner) | 13:15 |
ochosi | for some reason the menu separators don't look very nice in gtk3 in utopic | 13:18 |
bluesabre | guess its time for me to start running utopic fulltime to nag you | 13:19 |
ochosi | heh, well actually satya said he'd take care of the gtk3.12 transition | 13:20 |
ochosi | so you can nag him then ;) | 13:20 |
bluesabre | ok | 13:21 |
bluesabre | I've got a feeling that everything else is on standby until the numix sass conversion is done then? | 13:22 |
bluesabre | (or whatever that thing is called) | 13:22 |
bluesabre | :) | 13:22 |
* ochosi asks | 13:23 | |
ochosi | hm, so x-d-s 14.04.5 fixed the black screen bug, right? | 13:23 |
bluesabre | probably | 13:24 |
bluesabre | it sets the setting anyway | 13:24 |
bluesabre | unless lls is not started correctly or something | 13:24 |
ochosi | i'm drafting the article you and i were supposed to write on the subject for the blog | 13:24 |
bluesabre | ah cool | 13:24 |
ochosi | http://xubuntu.org/?p=2656&preview=true | 13:29 |
ochosi | bluesabre: lemme know what you think, this is a very quick draft ^ | 13:32 |
bluesabre | looks good | 13:37 |
bluesabre | Title could use some work | 13:37 |
bluesabre | ;) | 13:37 |
ochosi | feel free to just edit | 13:37 |
ochosi | i mean all of it, then hit publish ;) | 13:37 |
bluesabre | ok, I'll be sure to get to that today | 13:38 |
ochosi | great | 13:38 |
ochosi | so the sass port will happen for after 14.10 | 13:38 |
ochosi | our themes will get 3.12 support on the current code base | 13:39 |
bluesabre | ah, I see | 13:39 |
bluesabre | wow, that is really a huge undertaking then | 13:39 |
ochosi | yeah, basically a rewrite | 13:40 |
ochosi | not much fun | 13:40 |
ochosi | one of those things where you invest lots of time and effort, hoping that the code will become more maintainable | 13:40 |
bluesabre | yup, been there/done that ;) | 13:40 |
bluesabre | hm, the daily iso seems rather unstable atm | 13:41 |
bluesabre | in my vm, it almost starts, then I get a really wide black screen | 13:41 |
bluesabre | ooh progress | 13:42 |
ochosi | on what? | 13:43 |
bluesabre | https://imgur.com/Evyg3dQ | 13:43 |
ochosi | hehe, looks flashy | 13:44 |
ochosi | meh, installer always crashes at the partitioning step :( | 13:49 |
ochosi | btw, i think i need to draw a different icon for the "plugged in" state in the power-manager's plugin | 13:50 |
bluesabre | yes | 13:50 |
ochosi | that lightning doesn't really cut it for me | 13:50 |
bluesabre | :) | 13:50 |
bluesabre | this could be a new default wallpaper https://imgur.com/2JOX8VB | 13:51 |
ochosi | +1 | 13:51 |
ochosi | :D | 13:51 |
ochosi | wee, finally managed to jump across that buggy partitioner | 13:52 |
ochosi | so it's installing | 13:52 |
pleia2 | nice post | 15:18 |
pleia2 | social mediaed it | 15:20 |
ochosi | thanks pleia2 | 17:06 |
ochosi | bluesabre: i just pushed two of the icons that seemed too large in your utopic appmenu screenshot | 18:31 |
ochosi | please check whether there | 18:31 |
ochosi | are more | 18:31 |
ochosi | (if possible) | 18:31 |
bluesabre | ochosi: I'll work on putting a list together as I find them | 18:35 |
ochosi | cool, thanks | 18:38 |
ochosi | so i fixed the keyboard-settings icon and jockey | 18:38 |
bluesabre | cool, I'll check those out a bit later.. heading out to see a movie | 18:45 |
bluesabre | bbl | 18:45 |
Unit193 | bluesabre: Speaking of which, in your packages in Debian, why isn't PAPT maintainer and both of you uploaders? | 20:30 |
knome | i guess we could have a section on xubuntu-restricted-extras on the documentation | 22:55 |
ochosi | sounds like a good idea to me | 22:57 |
