ochosihi everyone09:05
ochosibluesabre: can we look at lls together today or tomorrow or are you super-busy?09:05
ochosijust have to whip it in shape a bit before FF creeps up on us09:05
elfyhi ochosi :)09:05
ochosihey elfy 09:05
ochosithanks for setting the trello-board public09:05
ochosiand for checking whether it's in sync09:05
elfywelcome - I'll check the sync this weekend09:06
ochosiguess it's important to get an overview now that FF is only a few days away09:06
elfyyep09:06
ochosielfy: anything i can help with to make QA less moribund?09:33
elfyochosi: if people aren't testing what can we do - you could mail the dev list perhaps, not sure what else we can do09:36
elfythere are a couple of people testing images now and again 09:36
elfyseems that jjfrv8 does some package testing when I call 09:36
elfymaybe see what happens with the first beta call/test in a week or two09:37
ochosiok, i can also do some testing myself09:41
elfy:)09:41
ochosiif you have specific things that need more looking at, let me know09:41
elfyI will09:41
elfymostly atm my concern is what happens when we beta test - if I'm the only one testing that - then what's the point in bothering *shrug*09:42
ochosiwell one person testing is significantly better than zero [:09:43
elfylol09:43
ochosii guess it's hard to make testing more attractive09:44
ochosialthough if you want, we can sit down and think about creating more incentive09:44
ochosi(and even if it only is that we send ppl who test regularly xubuntu stickers)09:45
ochosipleia2: thanks for doing the meeting! if you need input/help with the article for x.org let me know (of if you want me to review it)09:46
elfyochosi: yea testing is boring ... especially if you sit there and do 10 at a time 09:46
elfymight be some mileage in incentivising it (if that's even a word )09:47
elfyoff for a bit now09:47
ochosielfy: right, then let's think about that some more. i wouldn't mind investing a few of those bucks left in our "account" held by knome into this (at least i see much more direct benefit for us as a team from that then handing out flyers at conferences etc)09:51
ochosi(and if incentivising isn't a word, it definitely should be! :))09:52
brainwashochosi: does bug 1054299 really affect xfpm directly? any idea?10:47
ubottubug 1054299 in xfce4-session (Ubuntu) "Race condition in suspend scripts reveals desktop" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/105429910:47
brainwashit does call xflock4 from xfce4-session10:48
ochosibrainwash: haha, well good to read that suspend also didn't work nicely with xscreensaver12:38
ochosiand what i considered a security threat (i.e. locking only when waking up) is considered normal there12:38
elfyha 12:38
ochosii would say it has to do with xscreensaver, not with xflock or the power-manager12:39
ochosii mean now it12:39
ochosi's logind handling that12:39
brainwashso.. can xfpm be removed from the affects list?12:44
brainwashclosing the report completely is not an option yet, right?12:44
brainwashbecause 12.04 is still a supported release12:45
brainwashand not clue about 14.0412:45
ochosii presume that for those using xscreensaver in 14.04, it might still be a problem12:47
ochosibut no clue, i haven't used xscreensaver in quite a while12:47
brainwashkinda strange though12:50
elfyaren't they all ... 12:50
ochosisuspend is just still a very tricky procedure on linux obviously12:51
brainwashit's a high priority bug plus security related :/12:51
brainwashand we cannot get rid of it12:51
elfyochosi: re incentivising ... if we think about it till the beta testing - then if it's dead still take it to meeting 12:51
ochosielfy: you mean think about it as in make a list of possible options and discuss that after b1 @meeting?12:54
bluesabrehey guys12:59
elfyochosi: yea I think so :p13:00
ochosio hey bluesabre 13:05
ochosielfy: okeydokey, lemme know if the ideas get too many and you wanna write them down anywhere ;)13:05
elfyif we manage to get that many we can chuck it on a pad 13:07
ochosiyup13:08
ochosibluesabre: so how's the weekend looking? got time to look into lls with me?13:14
bluesabreochosi: so far, looking open for today13:14
bluesabrewhat changes need to be made for lls at this point, did we get everything we need with xfpm 1.3.1?13:14
elfyhi bluesabre 13:17
bluesabrehey elfy13:17
bluesabrehaven't had a look at your parole issue yet13:18
elfyno problem - I'd think other things have more priority13:18
ochosibluesabre: i would personally add a check for xfpm in lls and if it's running we hide the dpms and blank settings since xfpm handles all of that13:19
bluesabreok13:20
ochosiso basically there aren't that many settings left for lls, but well...13:20
bluesabreI can also add a button that launches the xfpm settings... does it support specific tab opening?13:20
ochosihmm, i think it partly does already13:21
ochosibecause we can open the devices tab13:21
ochosibut it might need more work to open specific tabs13:21
bluesabreok, I'll take a look13:22
ochosii think right now we just open the last tab, cause that's always devices13:22
ochosibut not sure13:22
ochosi(eric implemented that part)13:23
ochosihmpf, splitsville19:57
bluesabresplitcity20:08
ochosibluesabre: oh, you're back20:11
bluesabreyup, just got back20:11
ochosiso finalizing catfish now?20:13
bluesabreyes, want to test it in a bit20:13
bluesabre?20:13
ochosiah, that question mark was important :)20:13
ochosisure20:13
ochosilemme know when you're ready20:13
Unit193Soo, I've been told to tell you when I do personal Xfce things like merges.  I'm merging xfce4-session 4.11.0 from experimental.20:16
bluesabresweet20:19
bluesabreI'll sponsor that for you when you're ready20:19
Unit193The one in experimental is older than unstable, so kind of did a merge of both.20:20
Unit193OK, I'll upload a dsc for you.20:20
bluesabreok, just committed changes for catfish... "--start" can autostart the search on startup20:24
bluesabrecatfish /home/sean kittens --start20:24
Unit193bluesabre: dget https://sigma.unit193.net/source/xfce4-session_4.11.0-1ubuntu1.dsc20:25
bluesabreawesome20:25
Unit193Don't forget to review, I may have botched it. :D20:26
bluesabreD:20:27
ochosibluesabre: weee, that we should definitely add to whiskermenu!20:27
ochosii mean as a default action20:27
Unit193bluesabre: Thanks, wasn't sure if we were going to go for more 4.11 this cycle.20:28
bluesabreas much as we can get in before thursday20:28
bluesabrehopefully nick does the settings release soon20:28
ochosimaybe something like "search kitten" would do "catfish /home/$user kitten --start" and "search kitten everywhere" could do "catfish / kitten --start"20:28
ochosibluesabre: we should remind him and otherwise you can just do the release20:29
bluesabreyeah20:29
Unit193libxfce4util?20:29
Unit193That and xfce4-mixer are the only things experimental has that Ubuntu doesn't.20:31
bluesabreit would probably make sense to grab them20:31
Unit193Our delta for -mixer is an epoch. >_x20:34
ochosirly?20:35
ochosihow come?20:35
bluesabreprobably pulseaudio or something20:35
bluesabrebrb20:35
ochosii don't think we have pulseaudio support in the mixer in ubuntu20:35
ochosiwonder how long it'll take until gst0.10 is gone from the repos20:36
ochosimaybe not too soon though, not sure20:36
Unit193https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfce4-mixer/1:4.2.1-2ubuntu1 That's the first hit in the changelog for it.20:36
bluesabrewowza20:41
ochosiholy christ20:44
ochosithat was a while ago :)20:44
bluesabreok, catfish does work as a whiskermenu action20:50
bluesabreso thats handy20:50
ochosiyou just have to decide what the shortcut will be20:50
ochosiwhat did you think about the location substitution?20:51
ochosior defaulting to some location like home by default20:51
ochosiweeee, sorry for that overuse of default20:51
bluesabrejust default to home 20:51
bluesabreby default20:51
ochosi:)20:53
ochosiyup, i think that makes sense for most ppl20:54
bluesabrenotice any issues or have any suggestions?  thinking about letting 1.2.0 out of the gate now20:54
ochosilemme test the whisker-action20:54
bluesabre/path/to/catfish %s --start20:54
ochosi(also, you didn't say "test it now" before, so i haven't looked yet)20:55
bluesabre:D20:55
ochosihm, the wording of "this process requires.." is not ideal maybe20:56
ochosihow about "This action requires administrative rights"?20:56
bluesabresure, that sounds nicer and to the point20:56
ochosimm, nice infobar stuff20:57
ochosialso the abort-infobar, i like it20:57
Unit193'...would do "catfish /home/$user kitten...' Ever heard of $HOME?20:57
ochosi"user aborted authentication." is not very elegantly put though, sounds a bit wooden :)20:57
bluesabreactually, the code actually works out so home is default, so you don't even have to provide a path20:57
ochosiUnit193: nope, there's no place like $HOME.20:58
bluesabre"You gave up trying to remember your password"20:59
bluesabre"Authentication cancelled" perhaps?20:59
ochosiyeah, maybe20:59
ochosibtw, not sure why the "esc" or cancel button don't work as responsively as they used to21:00
bluesabrepossibly because locate is actually being used again... apparently that code got ignored the last few releases :)21:00
ochosihm, it also seems to reload the list if i hit cancel21:00
ochosiah, hehe21:00
ochosiso it'21:00
ochosis a feature? :)21:00
bluesabre;)21:00
bluesabre"reload the list"?21:02
ochosiok, i guess i can reproduce it like this:21:05
ochosienter e.g. "kittens", hit search, then after a few results hit cancel21:05
ochosithen *don't* change the search term, hit search again and then cancel again21:06
ochosithen it reloads the result-list a few times for me (at least twice)21:06
bluesabreahhh21:08
bluesabrenice catch21:08
bluesabrefix pushed21:19
ochosioh that was quick21:19
ochosiyup, that works21:19
bluesabrewould have been faster, but http://grammarist.com/spelling/cancel/21:20
ochosithe fact that the cancelling is still very sluggish sucks a bit21:20
ochosibut yeah, at least locate is being used again i guess ;)21:20
bluesabrethe app closes quickly even with locate, so thats something :)21:21
ochosi:D21:21
ochosiyup, the whiskermenu action rules21:24
ochosinice stuff21:24
ochosithe rest works as planned as far as i can tell21:25
ochosibtw, i guess instead of a panel-plugin one could also try to pop up catfish (without window-deco) where whiskermenu was21:25
ochosimaybe there21:25
ochosi's some mutual integration that could be done, passing around parameters and all21:26
bluesabremaybe, I'll have to think about that one21:26
bluesabreyay, my pbuilder finally built Unit193's package21:27
bluesabrenow to test21:27
ochosicould also talk to graeme gott21:27
bluesabreright21:30
ochosibe back after one episode of sherlock...21:31
Unit193Wait, new ones or are you way behind?21:31
bluesabresession21:34
bluesabrefirst it was a failed build since pbuilder was out of date21:34
bluesabrethen I had to update and try again21:34
bluesabre:D21:34
bluesabrebut everything looks ok, uploading now21:34
Unit193Nono, I meant Sherlock. :P21:35
Unit193But, glad it's working.21:36
* skellat notes that LP Bug #1297649 plus the linked bits from Debian may bring cause for an archive removal for Trusty and Utopic of twinkle if somebody on our end wants to spearhead such22:09

bluesabrere: twinkle, yikes22:20
bluesabreUnit193, Noskcaj, interested ^ ?22:21
Unit193In paperwork?  Nope.22:21
bluesabreD:22:21
Noskcajpaperwork: nope, catfish: Are you going to do the debian package or should i?22:21
bluesabreNoskcaj, if you want to, go ahead :)22:22
Noskcajsure22:22
Unit193"twinkle's binaries are not seeded."  I see no reason for it to be an Xubuntu problem.22:22
bluesabreshould be straight-forward, no packaging changes should be needed22:22
NoskcajAnything non version-bump needed?22:22
Noskcajok22:22
bluesabrethanks :)22:23
NoskcajDid you fix the about dialogue issue?22:23
bluesabrewrong version number displayed?22:24
Noskcajhttps://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=75782822:24
ubottuDebian bug 757828 in catfish "catfish: about dialog and --version show 1.0.2" [Minor,Open]22:24
bluesabreyeah, that should happen no longer :)22:24
bluesabrethe about dialog was hard-coded in the glade file, and now its smarter22:25
Noskcajgreat22:25
bluesabrefor the next release, I'll go to a python build system and then I won't forget that anymore ;)22:25
Unit193* Patch aclocal.m4 and configure to build on ppc64el.   We can likely just sync the 4.11 one then.22:32
bluesabreof which thing?22:33
Unit193Bleh, looks like a no.22:38
ochosiUnit193: i was way behind23:01
ochosibluesabre: congrats on catfish23:02
ochosinow let's go and add a custom action to whisker as soon as catfish hits utopic23:02
Unit193ochosi: Ah, I see.  Didn't think they were due back yet.23:05
ochosii still have a bit ahead of (lucky) me23:07
ochosibluesabre: still wanting to look at lls?23:10
bluesabrehey ochosi23:28
bluesabreyeah, will do that one next23:28
bluesabreochosi: careful, if you watch a few sherlocks, you'll have watched them all23:29
Unit193Hah, indeed.23:29
ochosihehe, yeah, that's the worst part of it tbh23:36
bluesabreochosi: xfce4-power-manager --version doesn't seem to output any version23:38
ochosihah, indeed23:39
ochosifun bug23:39
bluesabrewas going to use that to verify versions :)23:39
ochosihehe, bad idea23:41
ochosii'm looking into it now23:41
bluesabrecool23:41
bluesabreI'll add a breaks for xfce4-power-manager << 1.3.0 when I package it, that should make it safe23:42
ochosiyeah, i think that's better than actually checking xfpm's version23:43
ochosii mean it's possible, but obviously it doesn't work :)23:43
bluesabreit happens23:43
bluesabrecatfish-1.0.3 said it was 1.0.223:43
ochosiyeah, the xfpm 1.3.1 release said it was 1.3.0 in the release mail :)23:44
bluesabrewho knows how that even happened ;)23:44
ochosibluesabre: heh, try xfce4-power-manager --debug --version23:49
bluesabreochosi: haha23:50
ochosii'm still in the progress of debugging this23:51
ochosinot entirely sure what's going on there23:51
