Unit193ochosi, bluesabre: (I guess this should go here) Due to lack of a better place for now, they are here: http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/users/unit193-guest/xfce4-soundmenu-plugin.git/ - http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/users/unit193-guest/libmpris2client.git/05:47
Unit193bluesabre: Can you sync xfce4-appfinder from exp?06:29
ochosiUnit193: o hey! thanks a bunch!08:03
Unit193Also, in ppa:unit193/xfce.08:03
Unit193Bleh, should likely have done -0ubuntu1 for them..08:04
ochositrying it now08:07
elfymorning ochosi 08:07
ochosihey elfy 08:07
ochosihow's it going?08:08
elfyok thanks - week off :)08:08
ochosi\o/08:08
ochosilucky you, so what are you doing sitting in front of the computer? :D08:08
elfyimages are fubar atm bug 135225208:09
ubottubug 1352252 in parted (Ubuntu) "Exception during partitioning whilst utopic server installations" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/135225208:09
elfyelfy's in his counting house counting out his money, finding that the lack of it is really rather funny08:09
ochosihmm, i also had a hard time setting up my partitioning in utopic when i installed it on the weekend08:09
ochosiooohh, you have a "counting house" just for that purpose?08:10
* ochosi didn't know elfy was *that* rich08:10
elfyoh yes - it's always empty though :p08:10
* elfy suspects that ochosi never heard that nursery rhyme and if he did it wasn't in english :p08:10
ochosiindeed08:11
elfyit's a standard English August day - cloudy and a bit chilly - so I'm doing as little as I can today 08:12
ochosiUnit193: oooh, sneaky! the soundmenu didn't actually build08:12
ochosielfy: sounds like a sane goal for a day :>08:13
ochosiput that s*** on a t-shirt!08:13
Unit193ochosi: Dep-wait, I didn't wait long enough after firing up libmprisclient.  There's actually nothing wrong, give it a minute. :P08:13
ochosiah, i see :)08:13
ochosiwas just about to look at the build logs08:13
Unit193Didn't see the big Missing build dependencies: libmpris2client-dev? :D08:14
elfyochosi: lol08:15
ochosiUnit193: well i didn't look in the end, since you threw out that spoiler! :]08:15
Unit193It's actually on the status page too.08:16
ochosielfy: fwiw, utopic should soonishly have quite finalized gtk themes08:16
ochosioh08:16
elfyochosi: nice :)08:16
ochosielfy: so from shimmer-themes 1.8.1 (or so) onwards, please let me know of any visual oddities you encounter08:16
elfyok 08:16
ochosiapart from abiword, obviously that one always looks like crap08:16
Unit193...And always gets purged before seen.08:17
elfystop seeding abiword :p08:17
elfylol @ Unit193 08:17
ochosihehe, that'll be our next team vote then ;)08:17
ochosi(not kidding)08:18
Unit193Seeding network-manager has actually caused more problems for me (see my report on the tracker)08:18
Unit193ochosi: Eh, you wanting to put LO on? :/08:18
ochosiUnit193: hm which want?08:18
elfybeta 1 is in a few weeks - I assume we're still going to participate in those 08:18
ochosiUnit193: no, nothing, but i'll probably come up with a concept for that first08:19
ochosielfy: yup, i'd say so08:19
Unit193ochosi: They're done, but not sure if you should copy them over.08:19
elfyochosi: good - we need to do some milestones :)08:20
ochosielfy: if there's anything in particular that i have to do about these things that i might not know, feel free to "remind" me08:20
ochosiespecially with QA and releases i wasn't really so involved in the past08:20
Unit193elfy: FWIW, one of mine is on utopic now, so if I'm supposed to be looking for something..08:20
ochosiknome: the same goes for you ^ (i mean, "reminding" me of the duties i might not be aware of yet)08:20
elfyochosi: not really, it's basically mark images as ready, have a release note ready, tell whoever's asking in -release where it is :)08:20
ochosimkay, that sounds like work but do-able :)08:21
ochosino idea how to mark images ready, but i'll come to you once it comes to that08:21
ochosii guess the partitioner problem doesn't only affect us08:21
ochosisince it's part of ubiquity08:22
elfy.nope - that's everyone I'd assume08:22
elfymarking images is easy - the best thing to do is have the release notes almost done - then just fill in the major issues for us, the *buntu major issues get listed anyway08:23
ochosioh good08:23
ochosido we have any major issues so far that i might not be aware of?08:23
elfynot that I'm aware of - most of the big stuff was 14.04.1 sru's I tthink08:24
Unit193ochosi: Do you know if Andrew (asb) still is interested in helping Xubuntu in Debian?08:28
ochosiUnit193: hm, never knew anything about that08:30
ochosielfy: cool, that's good to know08:30
ochosiwell i guess more issues will pop up once we hit beta1 :)08:30
ochosiUnit193: and i don't think i've heard that name before08:31
elfyochosi: it's getting people to look before the end of October :p08:31
Unit193If it helps, I may upgrade the netbook to utopic too.08:32
ochosielfy: yeah, i was lagging a bit behind, now i at least have a vbox set up...08:33
elfyeverything helps :)08:35
Unit193OK, the upgrade is just going to stink. :P08:36
brainwashis there even anything new in xubu utopic other than gtk appearance tweaks?08:39
ochosibrainwash: new power manager?08:40
ochosithere'll be a new display dialog, new release of xfwm4 etc08:40
Unit193xfwm+tabwin?08:40
brainwash:P08:40
brainwashpeople are still having issues with xfpm and logind overriding lid close events08:42
brainwashaccording to launchpad08:42
ochosiUnit193: yeah, that one has been released meanwhile08:42
ochosibbl08:42
brainwashso that's one thing which could be tested in utopic with xfpm 1.3.008:43
knomeochosi, as if i had time to think about such ;)09:28
knomeochosi, i'll know afterwards when you didn't do something...09:28
Unit193knome: Know about the question about Andrew?09:33
knomeno?09:34
knometell me?09:34
elfysigh, wish we didn't get old installer bugs coming back - bad enough to have current ones :|11:01
Unit193:/11:04
Unit193So can anyone here actually subscribe ~xubuntu-bugs to packages?11:04
elfyyea 11:04
elfyI've done that previously11:05
Unit193I don't seem to be able to here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunar-dropbox-plugin/+subscriptions11:06
knomeUnit193, probably has to do with the LP teams review11:12
knome~xubuntu-team isn't an administrator for the bugs team any more11:13
knomei guess we should make -dev an administrator for that team11:13
knomeochosi, ^ ?11:13
knomeand set owner to xubuntu project lead11:13
Unit193So for a trial, I created https://bitbucket.com/xubuntu/ so I wouldn't be storing stuff in my alioth user dir and consequently be the only one with commit access.  It's basically for packages that aren't going to Debian (right now), but if others think they have a valid use for it, works for me.11:14
Unit193bluesabre: I had you as admin, but only removed once I learned it'd email you on every git repo import, and didn't want to spam.11:14
knomeUnit193, i guess with as social media stuff, it'd be good to have at least a few team people as admins11:15
Unit193He's "developer", which has a lot of access.  I just didn't want to spam his email.  I'm fine with others having admin.11:15
knomeyeah, wasn't referring to the bluesavre situation ;)11:16
knomebluesabre too!11:16
Unit193:P11:16
Unit193I'm only aware of myself, Sean, and Thomas being on there.11:16
bluesabreI don't mind a ton of emails... I get that with ubuntu-release list11:17
Unit193Done, you be an admin.11:18
bluesabrewoo!11:18
brainwashsound menu plugin? a replacement for the unity sound menu?11:29
brainwashany screenshots? :)11:30
Unit193Looking at the blueprints I see only the panel switch and lightdm-settings applications to create, were we going to try out any other packages?11:30
Unit193brainwash: https://github.com/matiasdelellis/xfce4-soundmenu-plugin/releases has a couple.11:30
brainwashah, so it's more like a sound actionbar11:31
bluesabreUnit193: I think that's all.11:32
Unit193bluesabre: Thanks.  Is skippy on the list somewhere/how?11:32
bluesabreUnit193: what is skippy again?11:40
Unit193Same type of thing xfdash is, only perhaps better(citation needed)11:41
bluesabreah11:41
bluesabresuppose I'll need a list of things that I need to upload to ubuntu11:42
bluesabre:)11:42
Unit193Going over the packaging, it'll need a little updating.11:43
bluesabreok11:43
bluesabretrying to get shimmer-themes uploaded this morning, but I'll be around for a while tonight11:44
Unit193Saw my ping about appfinder?11:44
bluesabreyes11:45
Unit193Great.11:45
Unit193Hrm, only git snapshots.  I'll ask if he plans to do a beta or release next time he's online.11:53
bluesabreshimmer-themes uploaded, bbl12:40
Unit193Nice.12:40

ali1234that's different to the sound plugin andrzejr was working on?13:07
Unit193I don't believe he was working on this one.13:11
Unit193I didn't know that he was working on one, much less what one.13:13
ochosiali1234: yeah, that's different. it started out as an mpris2 controller for the panel, but now he added pulseaudio volume control to it13:46
ochosiUnit193: thanks, copying now13:47
Unit193Sure.13:48
ochosiknome: do *you* wanna work on an accessibility version of greybird?14:23
ochosii'm just asking cause i guess that workitem is a candidate for postponing, don't think i'll get to that at all14:24
knomeochosi, can't do any promises on whether i'll have time, but sure, it's generally a target i can help reaching14:44
ali1234ochosi: btw, while i was away the past two weeks i was using xubuntu on my laptop, and i found it doesn't resume properly from suspend18:11
ali1234it wakes up okay, i get the lock screen, enter password, then a black screen18:11
ali1234then i have to restart lightdm18:11
ali1234so looks like a light-locker problem? i'm using all vanilla 14.04 packages so maybe you already fixed this?18:12
knomeit ought to be fixed in .1 18:13
knomeso if you have all updates, you should be fine18:13
ali1234looks like i'm up to date18:23
brainwashbut the user has to change something manually for existing accounts18:45
brainwashto fully fix this problem18:45

brainwashshould unfinished stuff from https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/xubuntu-14-04-point-1 be moved to point-2?18:52
brainwashmoreover, can we unlink the ibus bug report? ibus has been dropped and there is no indication that it will return in 14.04.x18:58
knomebrainwash, i think it's still warranted19:23
Unit193So, are we going to keep a hard dep on *-gtk-theme from shimmer-themes?19:43
ali1234brainwash: yes that works thanks20:01
elfymmm20:10
elfyso they now want to test 12.04.4 upgrade to 12.04.5 anyone got any time :|20:11
elfynot sure that using a vm for kernel and xorg enablement stack will cut it either 20:12
Unit193Everything I have is 14.04+20:12
elfyyep20:12
elfyoh good god - there's only alternate testing available - I've not got 4 hours for an install and an upgrade for that 20:15
Unit193I didn't even think we opted in for .5.20:16
elfythat'll help enormously ... 20:17
elfyhttps://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-release/2014-August/002969.html20:17
elfyI can tell them we're not interested ;)20:17
Unit193https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2014-February/thread.html#38042 Wrong as always, I don't see a reply.20:21
elfymmm 20:22
elfywell that's one of those threads isn't it - not sure who ALL of them are - but a fair few are paid by canonical - easy decision in those shoes20:22
elfywe can blame ochknomsi 20:23
Unit193Good plan!20:23
elfyI'm going offline till Friday - it's an SEP now 20:24
ali1234what needs to be done?20:24
elfyha ha ha 20:25
elfyUnit193: so ... "No kernel modules found" when I try to install the alternate20:25
Unit193>_<20:25
Unit193Pretty sure it doesn't like your hardware, then.20:26
Unit193Keeps doing that. :D20:26
elfyali1234: supposedly we're partaking in the 12.04.5 upgrade thing - but I can find no information on whether we are or not ... 20:26
elfyUnit193: this is just a vm 20:26
ali1234assuming we are, what needs to be tested? install 12.04.4 then try to upgrade it to 12.04.5?20:27
elfyochosi knome - are we or are we not partaking in 12.04.5 upgrade 20:27
elfyali1234: yea - alternate is the only testing option though20:27
elfyhttp://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/320/builds20:27
ali1234hmm i don't understand... how do you upgrade with an iso?20:27
elfyimage then20:28
elfytestcase for whole drive upgrade is http://testcases.qa.ubuntu.com/Install/AlternateWhole20:28
knomeali1234, burn a disc (or have an USB stick) and basically use it as a software repository20:29
elfyknome: do you remember if we said we'd participate ?20:29
elfycos I don't20:29
ali1234knome: that can only work with the alternate iso anyway right?20:30
knomedon't think we've SRU'd much since .1...20:30
knomeali1234, no, works with the regular ISO as well20:30
elfybut the real querstion is are we doing this or not ?20:31
knomedo we get the HWE stack or not?20:31
knomeif not, then .5 === .420:32
elfyI've no idea knome 20:32
knomeme neither20:32
Unit193I'll check.20:32
knomecheers Unit193 20:32
Unit193I don't think so.20:32
elfywe appeared to test .4 20:32
knomeelfy, yeah, but we landed the docs SRU for that20:33
knomeright? :)20:33
elfysounds right to me20:33
Unit193Uhhhh.20:33
knomenow we haven't landed anything20:33
Unit193We have 3.13 modules with a 3.2 kernel...20:34
knomehuh20:34

knomeright20:36
elfyhttps://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/xubuntu-users/2014-February/006529.html20:36
Unit193It's got modules for several, but I don't personally know why.20:36
knomemhmh20:36
elfyso - we're not bothered by this then20:37
knomeyep20:37
knomein that case we don't want the .5 ISO's built for xubuntu at all20:37
elfyknome: remove from list ?20:37
elfywill that stop build? or just stop reporting? 20:38
knometalk with somebody technical :)20:38
knomethere might be some reasons to keep building20:38
elfy:)20:38
knomebut my gut feeling is that it's mostly in vain20:38
* skellat must have had a good day at work to have snuck in a mailing list reply20:38
knomeor completely20:38
Unit193Indeed.20:39
knomeand clearly, i've had a more clear vision of what is happening then than now ;)20:39
elfyknome: I asked infinity20:40
knomeokay20:41
elfywho says ask stgraber ... 20:41
knomewell done20:41
elfy[21:41] <infinity> elfy: If you weren't using HWE stacks (were you?), there's no real reason for you to do the point release.20:42
elfy[21:41] <infinity> elfy: If you were, though, you don't really want to leave your users with the "current" precise ISO being unsupported.20:42
elfyUnit193 knome - we definitely are not using them ?20:42
knomedon't take my word for it :P20:43
knomebut i'm pretty sure now that i saw my own email20:43
elfyI've not - I'll stop panicking now :)20:43
knomeusing them would have meant broken PAE support in point releases20:43
elfy[21:42] <infinity> Yeah, you weren't.  Just double-checked.20:43
elfy[21:42] <stgraber> elfy: ok, so I'll remove any build you have and that'll be it. Thanks for letting me know.20:43
knomegreat :)20:43
elfyrather glad I saw that -release mail now and not tomorrow morning ... 20:44
knomeheh20:44
skellatThat would've been a point release to nuke from orbit20:44
elfyali1234: thanks for the offer to get hands dirty - appreciate that a lot :)20:45
elfyrespinning 20:47
elfybad enough that the unicorn is uninstallable atm without anything else ... 20:48
knomeok, off, bbl21:03
Unit193G'bye.21:03
brainwashjust realized that ubuntu + spins do/did have serious lock screen issues recently21:07
brainwashluckily not security related in xubu 14.04.0 :)21:10
brainwashUnit193: remember the incomplete screen lock in lubuntu 13.10? it never got fixed...21:12
Unit193Pah, really?  I thought it was at one point. :P21:12
Unit193Oh dear.21:13
brainwashby the way.. xmir dead? :)21:15
Unit193No, no it's not.  utopic just pulled in some libs. :(21:15
brainwashthat's not a bad thing, or?21:16
Unit193brainwash: Remember, I kind of follow the releases, but you likely know more.21:16
Unit193Meh, I'd prefer everyone on Wayland (in the future).21:16
brainwashI did follow the progress somewhat.. but lost track of it due to the lack of news about it21:17
brainwashand sloooow bug fixing21:17
brainwashbecause a software cursor is just a no-go, maybe they managed to fix this in the meantime21:18
elfyit is also an SEP at the moment21:18
brainwashsep?21:18
elfysomeone else's problem21:18
brainwashluckily21:19
Unit193Meh, I rebuilt ISOs for 0.5.0, 0.5.1 is out now though.21:19
brainwashso we keep ignoring it for now21:23
Unit193Basically, except I'll still do an ISO every so often.  knome recommended me talk to oll i, but not sure why exactly.21:24
Unit193It's sure not landing in utopic.21:24
Unit193There it is, Mythbuntu isn't doing .5 either.22:02
Unit193Studio?22:02
elfynot as far as I know22:02
elfyI think it is just ubuntu and kubuntu 22:03
bluesabreUnit193: problem with shimmer-themes?  Isn't that how meta-packages usually work?23:39
Unit193bluesabre: Well, as an added feature it might be possible to remove them, but shimmer-themes depends on all of them, which xubuntu-artwork (thus xubuntu-default-settings) do as well.23:40
bluesabreah... it was more for the purpose of being able to install only one if somebody chose to do so (ubuntu-gnome)23:41
bluesabreor xubuntu-core could just pull greybird, etc23:41
Unit193I was more asking at the time what Xubuntu's plan was with it.23:41
Unit193xubuntu-core still pulls -default-settings, so all.23:41
bluesabreah ok23:42
bluesabrecurrent plan is: let me know if something needs to change23:42
Unit193(x-d-s is kind of what makes Xubuntu, Xubuntu.)23:42
bluesabre:)23:42
Unit193Oh bah, you're the tech lead!  I'm following.23:42
* bluesabre looks for packages that need packaging23:46
Unit193Not more! /o\23:47
* bluesabre starts with xfce4-appfinder23:53
