bluesabrehey all00:14
bluesabreochosi, knome, elfy: maybe we should add pkexec policies to xubuntu-default-settings instead of individual packages to maintain translations... thoughts?00:34
bluesabre+ Unit19300:35
* bluesabre finally reads the rest of the backlog01:26
bluesabrebut yeah, for translations, I think it has to be either upstream or with xds01:26
bluesabre^ http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~xubuntu-dev/xubuntu-default-settings/trunk/revision/50201:46
Unit193I'd vote upstream, then.02:33
skellatochosi, bluesabre: This needs follow-up by one of you -- http://askubuntu.com/q/512257/13953203:32
elfybluesabre: that makes sense to me05:53
elfyochosi bluesabre - there were updates today for a couple of gstreamer packages, tied up with bug 134682106:37

Unit193elfy: http://pad.ubuntu.com/xubuntu-core doesn't have them select "Install" or "Command-line install", not sure if it's planned.  The tasksel name is 'Xubuntu minimal installation', not sure if that matters to you.07:17
Unit193(Also removed the "Welcome to Ubuntu etherpad")07:17
elfyyea - it does - that's why it's a draft, I copied stuff from elsewhere 07:18
elfywrite what needs to be written please :)07:18
Unit193And I'll have to see how exactly that boots, or when you can select it.07:20
elfyshould be in the same place as http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-testcase/ubuntu-manual-tests/trunk/view/head:/testcases/image/1504_Netboot%20Install%20%28Desktop%2907:21
elfyline 32/33 I think07:21
knomebluesabre, upstream is the ideal situation, and IMO should be the long-term goal. doing it in x-d-s is ok for now07:27
ochosielfy: have you noticed any issues with gtk3 apps in utopic so far?08:05
ochosii mean do they look and work okay? (e.g. evince or file-roller)08:05
ochosiok, answered that question myself, evince, file-roller and the likes are still in their 3.10 versions (i.e. without CSD) so xubuntu by default at least is safe08:30
ochosiali1234: ^08:31
ochosi(obviously this doesn't apply to other distros or xfce in general, which is why i posted it here)08:32
ali1234yeah08:36
ali1234check file requester windows though08:36
ali1234because those always get CSD if it is available08:37
ochosifile requester? you mean the open-file dialog?08:40
ali1234yes08:41
ali1234also pretty much any modal dialog08:41
* ochosi is afraid to look08:42
ochosiali1234: they look fine in 14.10 as far as i can tell08:50
ochosiyup, they patched it out, like i suspected08:52
brainwashelfy: does your policy file also work with /usr/bin/Thunar (the symlink)?09:10
elfynope09:12
brainwashadd it or just ignore the (useless) symlink09:15
brainwashwould anyone run "pkexec Thunar"?09:15
ochosielfy: btw, eric told me last night that "if you are trying to do pkexec thunar in the org.xfce.thunar.policy file make sure you have <annotate  key="org.freedesktop.policykit.exec.allow_gui">TRUE</annotate>09:16
ochosi"09:16
ochosibackground: pkexec won't pass $DISPLAY or $XAUTHORITY by default (and running a full gui program as root is a bad  idea)09:16
slickymasterWorkknome, we could do the pkexec and the new NetworkManager items for the docs, if you want, and afterwards start to work on the https://wiki.ubuntu.com/slickymaster/LinksMergeSandbox stuff 09:17
elfyoff to work again09:17
brainwashand what about an additional script called thunar-pkexec? it basically runs pkexec thunar "$@"09:17
brainwashlike gparted-pkexec09:18

bluesabreochosi: got it10:07
ochosibluesabre: if you're still looking at the greeter (not like this is a huge issue though), we could try to improve the padding in the shutdown/restart dialogs. the icons look a bit off in gtk3.1210:17
bluesabreochosi: we'll do that for 1.9.110:17
ochosiideally they'd be vertically centered: http://www.zimagez.com/zimage/screenshot-08192014-121717pm.php10:17
bluesabreI agree10:17
ochosiwe can also drop the icons though10:17
ochosithey don't really add much to the meaning of the dialog10:17
knomeslickymasterWork, sure... let's see when we both have time :)10:17
ochosilunchtime, bbl10:18
bluesabreochosi: want to test something when you get back in trusty?10:42
bluesabrepull latest lightdm-gtk-greeter, then run10:43
bluesabre./autogen.sh; make; make distcheck10:43
bluesabrelet me know if it finishes10:43
bluesabreskellat: responded.11:17
brainwashochosi: bug 1193716 is fixed now, but is it worth to tell people that they can request the package to be backported to trusty?11:27

brainwashI'm not sure how to handle this backport option? do we even provide any backports for trusty as of now?11:28
brainwashbluesabre: can we close bug 1349056 ?11:41

elfyochosi: I really know little about pkexec - if it needs fiddling about with then someone else will have to do so12:08
brainwashwhy did someone move all the dupes to bug 1357090 ?!12:20

elfyochosi: there's certainly no org.xfce.thunar.policy atm - just one I knocked together which says something else entirely12:21
elfybluesabre might want to hold fire if the policies need to be changed 12:34
ochosibrainwash: not sure an entirely new version of xfce4-power-manager will be backported to trusty12:40
ochosiand anyway, the stable 1.4 hasn't even been released yet12:40
ochosibut yeah, you can still mark it fixed12:40
brainwashso we don't do backports?12:41
ochosii'm not sure i wanna port back something like the power-manager12:41
ochosiit theoretically needs new icons too12:41
ochosiit's not like we only fixed bugs from 1.2 to 1.412:42
ochosipeople who want it can get it from a PPA i'd say12:42
ochosithat is, when it's released12:42
brainwashok12:42
ochosibrainwash: also, please don't subscribe me to reports like https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xubuntu-default-settings/+bug/135709012:44

ochosii mean seriously, we close a bugreport and people open a new bugreport referencing that bugreport?12:45
brainwash"Input from the Xubuntu team would be much appreciated here"12:45
brainwashit's a mess12:45
ochosithe comments suggest that the two guys have entirely differnt issues12:45
brainwashand it's targeting xubu default settings12:45
brainwashso, someone has to stop this madness :)12:46
ochosiright so do something other than subscribing me12:46
brainwashshould I tell you to write a comment instead?12:47
ochosiyou should write one yourself12:49
ochosiyou know pretty much as much as i do about this issue12:49
brainwashright, it's fixed12:49
ochosiit's fixed or a different issue12:50
brainwashany suggestion for a new target package?12:50
brainwashapparently it cannot be fixed in xubu default settings12:51
brainwashbecause there is nothing to fix12:51
ochosinot sure, could be anything, from graphics driver to x1112:55
ochosianyway, i'm going back to ignoring that bugreport now12:55
ochosilderan: since feature freeze is only two days away I'm presuming we're postponing your workitem (GUI for panel-switch)?13:05
knomeif it's almost ready or sth, i could work on the exception paperwork13:08
knomegiven that it would be ready soon, that is13:08
ochosinot sure that lderan has even started13:09
ochosii mean it shouldn't be so hard, since the app is already there and does what it should13:09

knomeand by what means are we "infected by unity libraries" ?14:35
ali1234lol, unity libraries actually break xubuntu14:42
ali1234he could be talking about indicators though i suppose14:42
pleia2getting ready for zee hangout14:51
knomeali1234, if i'm connecting the dots correctly, he's a person with a ban on #xubuntu...15:06
elfyochosi: so - using org..xfce.thunar.policy doesn't work - on a seperate note the policy file I have that does work has that allow_gui in it15:21
ochosielfy: i'll ask eric to specifically review our policy files as he seems to know more about all this15:23
elfygood plan :)15:24
elfyno good me doing it - I'll just flounder and thrash about for a bit getting no closer to the shore :p15:24
elfyochosi: did you see my garbled message this morning re the jog in parole issue?15:28
elfyor rather - see it and understand :p15:28
ochosielfy: if i understood you correctly, you said that the issue in gstreamer1.0 with skipping has been fixed16:02
elfygood :)16:05
ochosiany clue yet whether that'll be backported to trusty?16:05
elfynone - is it a bug in trusty then - because I never noticed that 16:07
ochosihm, i thought i had seen that16:08
ochosican't be sure now though (too tired after a day in the office)16:09
elfy:)16:09
ochosielfy: eric was kind enough to review the policy files and they're ok as is16:23
elfyawesome :)16:25
elfyI knew they *worked* - but making sure they're ok for anyone else was something else entirely16:25
ochosielfy: yup, in any case, well done! (and thanks)16:49
brainwashthe thunar policy file is missing pkexec in the filename16:53
brainwashcom.ubuntu.pkexec.mousepad.policy16:53
