mzanettiMacSlow: hey ho08:57
dandraderSaviq, just flashed mako with devel-proposed and have unity8 crashing with this on start up: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8848881/  I think I read something about it somewhere. do you know what's the easy fix for it?09:08
Saviqdandrader, huuh, do you have media-hub running?09:09
dandraderlet me "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade". maybe the fix is not in the current image yet...09:10
dandraderSaviq, oh yeah, media-hub is being upgraded now...09:11
dandraderSaviq, works now :)09:14
Saviqdandrader, still, shouldn't have happened...09:14
Saviqdandrader, sounds like we messed up the deps somewhere09:14
tsdgeosSaviq: ping09:21
Saviqtsdgeos, wassup?09:21
Saviqdednick, saw email from Kevin?09:22
dednickSaviq: ya. looking into it now09:22
Saviqdednick, ok, let me know if you need a hand09:22

tsdgeosSaviq: i don't udnerstand why some code i did in GenericScopeView regarding visibility ranges and stuff09:22

facundobatistaHola11:12
dandradergreyback, I'm having problems building unity8 and qtmir for the PPA as they're not getting the new unity-api11:47
dandradergreyback, https://code.launchpad.net/~unity-team/+recipe/qtmir-shellrotation11:47
dandradergreyback, the new unity-api is already in the PPA (https://launchpad.net/~unity-team/+archive/ubuntu/demo-stuff/+packages)11:47
dandradergreyback, but still qtmir and unity8 refuse to build due to missing dependencies. do I have to tweak their recipes somehow?11:48
dandradermzanetti, ? ^11:50
* mzanetti looking11:51
mzanettidandrader: I think its because of the ~ in the version11:54
mzanettidandrader: ~ makes it smaller11:54
dandraderversioning hell11:55
mzanettiso requires >= 7.94 won't be fulfilled with 7.94~foo11:55
dandradermzanetti, in unity-api you mean?11:55
mzanettiyeah11:55
mzanettidandrader: use - instead of ~11:55
dandradermzanetti, ok, thanks!11:55
kgunndandrader: or just add {time} to the end of the version, it will make it bigger11:55
mzanettiyeah, but not after a ~ :)11:56
kgunnright11:56
greyback__sodding broadcom chip11:56
dandradermzanetti, so "7.94-0~164~ubuntu15.04.1 < 7.94"?11:57
greyback__I'd use 7.94+{bzr}11:57
mzanettiI think so... not entirely how the -0 comes into play11:57
greyback__the "-0" always confuses me11:57
greyback__7.94-0 < 7.9411:57
Zhenechwhy don't you depend on ">= 7.94~"11:58
dandraderyeah, I just went with the default version rule that the recipe gives....11:58
dandradergreyback__, what's the difference between 123-foo and 123+foo?11:59
mzanettiZhenech: because this is just a testing ppa and we don't want to mess with control file11:59
greyback__dandrader: dpkg treats them differently - the exact details I don't know.11:59
greyback__dpkg --compare-versions 7.94-0 le 7.94 && echo "yes"   - prints yes12:00
greyback__dpkg --compare-versions 7.94+0 le 7.94 && echo "yes"  - prints nothing12:00
* dandrader write it down12:00
kgunnwow12:00
greyback__mterry understands this stuff. I just play it safe by avoiding the -12:02
Saviqgreyback__, dandrader, that's because upstream version 1.00 is meant to be higher than debian version 1.00-debian112:02
kgunndoes anyone know how to simulate 1) a sim that is locked & 2) simulate locking on an actual sim ?12:03
Saviqkgunn, not all SIMs support it at all12:03
greyback__Saviq: *nod* makes sense12:03
Saviqkgunn, but with phonesim you can emulate it12:03
kgunnSaviq: yeah, i gotta at&t prepaid that has no locking12:03
Saviqkgunn, AFAIK in the US you basically don't get lockable SIMs12:04
Saviqkgunn, you can install ofono-phonesim-autostart12:05
kgunn /me tries12:05
Saviqkgunn, and then you can interact with the virtual SIM, configure it in /usr/share/phonesim/default.xml I think12:05
kgunnah-ha, thanks for pointers12:06

MacSlowtsdgeos, finally found the time to sort out the merge-conflicts with https://code.launchpad.net/~macslow/unity8/replace-combo-button-fix-1384730/+merge/24028314:46
MacSlowtsdgeos, so if you want to take another look.14:46
LugalHello14:47
Lugaldoes Unity still have the feature thats its sending search results to canonical, without letting the user know? or has it been changed?14:48
larsuLugal: yes (but it doesn't send results, it sends the query). You can turn it off in System Settings > Security & Privacy > Search14:50
Lugalwhy is it not turned off at default? its not too obvious to all users.14:51
tsdgeosMacSlow: ok14:52
Lugaland is it the only thing that sends something? or does other programms contained in Ubuntu have similar features?14:52
MacSlowtsdgeos, thx14:52
tsdgeosLugal: it's all free software, you should check the source code to be sure14:53
larsuLugal: no, unity is not the only program communicating with the internet...14:53
larsus/with/over14:53
LugalI am not talking about communicating, I am talking about sending private data14:54
larsuwhat is private data to you?14:54
larsuchatting with another person? Sure, that's sent to that other person (via whatever chat provider you have set up)14:55
larsudoing a google search? That's sent to google...14:55
larsujoking aside, I really don't fully understand your question14:55
Lugalthe filenames on ones computer can be private14:55
larsuunity only sends the string you search for14:56
larsuif you don't want that, you can turn it off14:56
cwayneand not from the files lens14:56
larsuright, thanks cwayne14:56
davmor2Lugal: it's not sending private data if you use the scopes provided, if you use the home then it sends out searches but if you use the files scope it only searches locally and you can turn on and off searches too14:56
Lugalfor example   diary.txt  or    allMyPasswords.txt   or   patiens_data.txt   or what ever someone could have on a computer, he would not want cannonical to know about these file names.14:57
Lugalor did I misunderstand something14:58
larsuunity does not send the contents of those files (of course)14:58
Lugalit sends the strings then I search for my files or only when I search for a programm online?14:58
larsuthe names themselves don't seem very sensitive to me14:59
larsuwhen you search for "diary" on the home scope, "diary" is sent to canonical, nothing else14:59
Lugalbut other people knowing about the file names can make me a target for hackers15:00
larsuno, not really15:00
larsubut if you're concerned that the file names contain sensitive information, you have the choice to turn off that feture15:00
larsu*feature15:00
davmor2Lugal: or as we keep saying use the Files scope which only searches locally, not data sent out anywhere15:01
Lugalif someone searches for topSecretCompanyData.txt  that could make him a target for hackers15:01
larsuLugal: how so?15:01
larsuhow could a hacker use "topSecrectCompanyData.txt" to intrude your system?15:02
tsdgeoslarsu: technically could use to to know you have such secret data15:02
Lugalbecause another comnpany who buys the info from canonical would pay hackers to steal the data e.g.15:02
tsdgeoswhich is irrelevant as davmor2 says15:02
Lugalok, ok, then another example15:03
davmor2Lugal: it hits the canonical server encrypted so no-one can read that, it is then anonymously sent out to the search providers the results of which go straight to you, at which point do you think someone can read it other than you?15:03
larsutsdgeos: yeah, fair enough15:03
davmor2Lugal: we don't sell info15:03
Lugalif I play a game, and make screenshot with the name b0mb, and then I search for it, then some secret services can mark me as teror1st. and thats not what your users would want . is it?15:05
Saviqkgunn, I'll add MacSlow's dropdown branch to vivid silo 16, this being the last remaining thing to land?15:05
Saviq(for unity8 that is)15:05
kgunncool15:06
larsuLugal: dude, you just said bomb on a public irc channel...15:06
Lugalu too15:06
larsuI say that a lot, actually15:06
Lugalbut, I meant it only as an example15:06
larsuya, I get your point15:06
larsusimply turn it off if you're privacy conscious15:07
tsdgeosMacSlow: hey! why have i been volunteered to https://code.launchpad.net/~macslow/unity8/replace-combo-button-fix-1384730/+merge/240283 ? i did only comment that it did not merge :D15:08
Lugalbut anyway its not fair for people, who dont know about the turn off option. and if you really need the infos, you could just make a voluntarily survey for your users15:08
MacSlowtsdgeos, well I tried to "voluneteer" you ;)15:09
tsdgeosMacSlow: is this going for a critical, rtm, ota1, or what?15:09
MacSlowtsdgeos: it's critical for rtm15:10
tsdgeosbut needs to be adjusted ^_^15:11
davmor2Lugal: you know when you open the dash what does the big search box say?15:11
larsuLugal: the placeholder text in the search box is pretty clear, I think ("search your computer and online sources" )15:11
larsudavmor2: :)15:11
davmor2Lugal: then if you click along the icons at the bottom what do each of those say in comparison15:12
MacSlowtsdgeos, what adjustment is needed?15:12
tsdgeosMacSlow: i guess ti's fine15:12
tsdgeosbut if it's critcal, should say critical somewhere and be set by someone of the "Crticail deciding team"15:12
LugalI dont know15:12
sil2100Saviq: ping15:13
Lugaldont have unitz anymore since having reading bad things about it15:13
sil2100Saviq: or maybe not, unping!15:13
Saviqheh15:13
larsuLugal: why do you complain about it, then?15:13
Lugalbut is it true, that canonical gives the infos to amazon?15:13
SaviqLugal, no, your identity actually never leaves Canonical's servers15:14
Saviq(identity == IP, nothing else)15:15
SaviqLugal, just using your browser is much more "dangerous" in that sense than using Unity15:15
SaviqLugal, you're being tracked by cookies, Google search, everything15:16
tsdgeosfacebook!15:16
davmor2facebook, google+, twitter, any music service, any films service etc etc etc15:16
MacSlowLugal, you can e.g. use netstat on the phone, to see what's going out from your device15:17
MacSlowLugal, and nmap also works on the phone15:18
SaviqMacSlow, this was actually about Unity7, but yeah, same applies15:18
MacSlowSaviq, ah ok...15:18
SaviqMacSlow, with the exception of the concern what Canonical then does with the data (i.e. nothing)15:18
MacSlowLugal, on the desktop it's even simplier15:18
MacSlowsimpler15:18
Lugalbut google/facebook etc track only what i upload, and I can still be sure my hdd to stay private, but when hearing that the makers of my operating system have interest of knowing my hdd content, then my last hope for privacy is gone :(15:19
larsuif you don't trust the software on your desktop, you probably shouldn't be using software on it to find out what it sends to the internet15:19
SaviqLugal, that's plain FUD15:19
MacSlowLugal, you're using an openSource OS... that's the best basis for digging really deep, if you have trust-concerns15:19
SaviqLugal, Unity does not upload anything anywhere, only the query (meaning what you type into the search string)15:20
Saviqs/string/entry/15:20
Lugalok, and is there  a way to find out with netstat what a programm send to the internet?15:21
SaviqLugal, google for "logging internet traffic"15:22
Lugalok15:22
Lugaland one last question15:22
MacSlowLugal, common tools are nmap, tcpdump and netstat15:22
Lugalare the programms in the canonical repo the same as in the developer website and in other distros? or does each distro has its own version of programms e.g. firefox, pidgin, thunderbird, vlc, ....?15:23
MacSlowLugal, 99.99% the same... usual difference are packaging-adjustments due to distro15:24
SaviqLugal, most distros *builds* it themselves, unless they're derivative, when they use the same binaries even15:24
SaviqLugal, as far as source goes, what MacSlow said15:25
SaviqLugal, any differences are, again, public - it's all open source15:25
Lugalok, thanks for the infos. cya15:27
tsdgeosSaviq: Cimi_: i changed a bit the updateRanges function on https://code.launchpad.net/~aacid/unity8/photoscopeimprovements/+merge/23983415:40

tatsutaHi guys! How can I send a notification with expire time??16:04
MacSlowtatsuta, what kind of notification? From what type of service/app?16:06
tatsutanotify-send to dunst16:06
MacSlowtatsuta, under unity7 or unity8?16:06
tatsutaI was just wonderung why notify-send doesn't support expire timeout16:07
MacSlowtatsuta, notify-send implies unity7/desktop16:07
tatsuta*wondering16:07
MacSlowtatsuta, notify-osd (unity7) does not allow expire-timeout to be controlled by notification-triggering apps.16:07
tatsutawhy, my scripts need it16:07
MacSlowtatsuta, that's a design-decision to avoid notification-queue-blocking16:08
tsdgeosMacSlow: what does the getRaw function do in the test?16:08
tatsutaSo how can we overcome this problem?16:08
tsdgeosMacSlow: ah i see16:09
MacSlowtsdgeos, it's needed because of the missing unity-notifications, which implements that call16:09
tatsutaI also have tried dbus-send with no effect16:09
MacSlowtatsuta, like I said... notify-osd (the notification deamon/rendering under unity7) does intentionally not support custom timeouts.16:10
=== dandrader|afk is now known as dandrader
tsdgeosMacSlow: what do you think of http://paste.ubuntu.com/8853665/ so that tryOptionToggle is less weird?16:10
MacSlowtatsuta, if you want to change that behaviour, you've to patch notify-osd16:11
tatsutaOh I see... Can I use another notification daemon16:11
MacSlowtatsuta, or that16:11
MacSlowtatsuta, the default one from GNOME still does support that iirc16:11
