slaveworxhi people!00:31
slaveworxI've been reading how to get involved in xubuntu00:32
slaveworxand I think this is definitely the best place to get started00:32
slaveworxI want to know more about how can I start00:33
holsteinqa testing is an easy place to start that can really help out http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/00:34
holsteinthere are developer meetings.. you could go and introduce yourself there, and likely volunteer for something00:35
holsteinwhat specifically are you interested in doing?00:36
slaveworxholstein: I'm learning python at the moment, and I know some intermediate Ruby00:41
slaveworxso I'm trying to get to participate in open-source projects to learn more and to help at the same time00:41
slaveworxSo, anything related to app developing or anything related would be really great00:42
holsteinyou can also choose, for example, an upstream appliation written in python, and go to that community and assist, which would trickle into downstream xubuntu, and others00:42
slaveworxHum, and where can I find + info on that?00:43
holsteinslaveworx: well, that will depend on the project00:44
slaveworxI'll search about it ! :)00:46
slaveworxthank you for your help holstein!00:46
knomehello slaveworx and welcome00:47
knomeif you want to get involved with development/writing code, bluesabre and ochosi are the right people to talk to00:47

Unit193ochosi: So anything else "interesting" for me to do?08:37
ochosiUnit193: sorry, still too distracted on other fronts, but i'll get to you ;)09:06
knomeUnit193, put AgAu on a leash? :P10:46
Unit193knome: Thought about it.10:48
knomesilly Unit193 10:49
ochosiNoskcaj: looks like your whisker-upgrade already landed11:41
ochosiand the button looks pressed now11:41
ochosielfy: ^11:41
bluesabreNoskcaj: Ping me the things that you need me to sponsor. When my internet gets activated, I'll take care of it.12:26
ochosiUnit193: wanna try to fix the xfpm build in the staging ppa?12:28
ochosiand hey bluesabre 12:28
bluesabrehey ochosi, and congrats, your nick is in my phone's autocorrect12:29
ochosihuhu, cool12:29
ochosiwhyever that is :)12:29
ochosibluesabre: we have some annoying gtk3.14 issues, parts of it are apps that are at fault12:31
bluesabreUnit193, might require you to bump the +git version, or go back to versioning upower12:31
bluesabreochosi, can you make a list with the Dev blueprint... Along with gtk3.1412:32
ochosiyeah, that might get too messy though...12:32
ochosii might create some sort of other list for it12:33
ochosimaybe trello12:33
bluesabreOK. Do that :-)12:33
bluesabreI meant to get that set up before my absence12:35
Unit193bluesabre: Ah, didn't look much, but kind of looked like some weird autocrap.  I'll ping you tomorrow with some things if you're still around though.  And yeah, should/will move the xfpm pkging to -dev so we can both push.12:37
bluesabreUnit193, cool12:39
ochosibluesabre: wrote down some of my thoughts/findings on trello12:45
ochosithat should help to fix some issues12:45
ochosibluesabre: btw, olivier really added a patch to xfce4-settings to sync the xfwm4 button layout with gtk3's CSD12:46
ochosielfy: added you to the board as well, so in case you see gtk3.14 issues that i missed or anything, you can note them there12:47
bluesabreochosi, awesome... I was going to do that at some point too12:49
ochosiwe just need a release i guess12:50
elfyochosi: thanks13:10
elfyand button does in fact look pressed now too ;)13:11
elfystill no sound indicator thought13:19
elfyoh13:19

Noskcajbluesabre, https://code.launchpad.net/~noskcaj/ubuntu/vivid/xfce4-taskmanager/1.1.0/+merge/245535 https://code.launchpad.net/~noskcaj/ubuntu/vivid/thunar/1.6.4/+merge/245533 https://code.launchpad.net/~noskcaj/ubuntu/vivid/xfce4-panel/4.11.2/+merge/24553118:48
NoskcajPlease upload ignoring bzr's issues with xfce tarballs18:48
* Unit193 sighs.19:21
Noskcajbluesabre, Also, UDD was having a pristine-tar issue with some of your packages and some xfce ones, if you have time to look into why, that would be great19:39
ochosibrainwash: we'll see how long it takes rex to review your patch21:44
ochosibut we can also give it some testing in xubuntu i guess21:45
brainwashochosi: the packaging needs some attention, I think the xdg-utils package still includes an upstream patch which has been already applied to the code21:50
brainwashochosi: also ali12341's ntp patch for gnome-system-tools21:51
ochosiyeah, i already told seb128 we should replace that with the upstream version21:51
ochosii'm not aware of that patch21:52
ochosito gnome-system-tools i mean21:52
brainwashbug 127009021:53
ubottubug 1270090 in gnome-system-tools (Ubuntu) "time-admin can not install ntp" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/127009021:53
brainwashnot our package, but xubuntu is the only distro which still uses this package (I think)21:54
ochosiright, i guess we need to ping around for that to get reviewed then21:54
ochosiand we might need a merge-request instead of a debdiff21:54
ochositarget will likely become vivid, tag says utopic and trusty21:55
brainwashit could be SRU'd back to trusty at least21:56
Unit193!info mate-system-tools21:57
ubottuPackage mate-system-tools does not exist in utopic21:57

brainwashdid they fix this?21:57
brainwashthis particular problem21:57
Noskcajbrainwash, i don't think it fixes that issue, but i have a pending merge for g-s-t22:00
brainwashfrom debian?22:00
brainwashdoes some debian guy maintain this project?22:02
brainwashI thought that it's completely dead now22:02
Noskcajbrainwash, new maintainer in debian, took some of the ubuntu fixes and some new ones22:04
NoskcajHe's one of lxde's maintainers22:04
ochosiNoskcaj: so we should forward ali's patch to the debian maintainer?23:14
NoskcajProbably23:32
