lordievaderGood morning.09:12
Riddellhola chicos10:00
Mirvsitter: how was the kdelibs4support horridness btw, was it a one time "rebuild for Qt 5.4", or should I keep it on the list of "rebuild whenever landing a new Qt"?10:05
RiddellMirv: it's only for qt 5.410:07
Riddellactually why did it have to be rebuilt?10:08
sitterMirv: one time thing10:08
sitterRiddell: it was using a static method from qtbase that wasn't public API10:09
sitterthe method then got dropped in favor of an implementation with public API. so kdelibs4support was trying to use a symbol that didn't exist anymore10:09
MirvRiddell: sitter: thanks!10:10
Riddell"h2222080@gmail.com has been successfully subscribed to kubuntu-devel" hmm real e-mail address or spammer?10:14
Mirvhmm, but kwin newly uses private headers and I should add that?10:22
mgraesslinMirv: what? kwin is not using any private headers (yet)10:23
Mirvmgraesslin: kwin binary package has obtained dependencies on qtbase-abi-5-4-0 and qtdeclarative-abi-5-4-0, meaning it'd somehow use symbols marked as private10:24
mgraesslinMirv: it shouldn't. Can you see which one they are?10:24
mgraesslinMirv: might it be that the dependencies got set, because kwin had ifdef Qt 5.4 code?10:25
Mirvmgraesslin: no, sorry. I'm not sure what'd be the easiest way to do that.10:25
Mirvmgraesslin: it shouldn't be because of that, only if during package build debhelper finds using certain symbols10:26
beluga_hi, anyone want to try and reproduce https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8969710:28
ubottubugs.documentfoundation.org bug 89697 in Installation "Cannot successfully install LO 4.4.1.2 on Kubuntu 14.04" [Blocker,Unconfirmed]10:28
beluga_http://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-fresh/?type=deb-x86_64&version=4.4 Instructions he used are here: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Install/Linux10:29
beluga_speaking about WollMux.. Munich?10:29
beluga_I have to leave office now, back in 1 h.. you can add a comment to the report directly, if you want10:32
Mirvmgraesslin: ok, I ran dpkg-shlibdeps -v -v -v etc manually after building kwin. and found at least _ZN13QOpenGLWidgetC1EP7QWidget6QFlagsIN2Qt10WindowTypeEE@Base 10:43
Mirvthat only explains qtbase-abi-5-4-0 though, I don't see qtdeclarative-abi-5-4-0 in that output10:44
mgraesslinbut KWin doesn use OpeNGLWidget10:44
Mirvmgraesslin: oh, I've better output now when using dh_shlibdeps to handle the listing of files, 10 symbols: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/10446388/10:47
Mirvnow again I don't know how to find how they get into use if it's not directly in code10:47
mgraesslinMirv: QQuickRenderControl became public API in Qt 5.410:47
Mirvok, that would be a bug in our Qt packages then10:48
mgraesslinQQuickRenderControl is used in KWin, but only if built against Qt 5.4 because it's public API there10:48
Mirvmitya57: ^ that seems to be a bug in Debian packages too10:50
MirvI guess mark_private_symbols.sh doesn't take care of unmarking now-public symbols10:50
Mirvso that would solve qtdeclarative but that qtbase symbol remains a question mark10:51
Mirvmgraesslin: kcm_kwin4_genericscripted.so + kwin5_aurorae.so are the ones using that qtbase symbol10:52
mgraesslinthat just doesn't make sense10:53
mgraesslinI just did a grep for QOpeNGL10:53
Mirvthe binary files match too for grepping that symbol10:53
mgraesslinAurorae has some usage but not kwin4_genericscripted10:53
mgraesslinit links Qt5::UiTools - maybe that pulls it in10:54
mitya57Mirv, I commented on the bug you filed11:42
Mirvmitya57: thanks, wow you're quick in fixing :)11:43
Mirvthat should be very useful11:43
Mirvotherwise similar things might lurk there indefinitely11:44

BluesKajmparillo, have you tried netrunner lately ?14:37
mparilloBluesKaj: Yes, and I keep coming back to Kubuntu15:11
mparilloI do like they way they map the "super" key, but I am now used to <alt><F1>.15:12
mparilloIIRC, they default to double-click, and include lots of CODECs, and way too many FF customizations for my taste. It also feels more sluggish, but not as sluggish as Fedora. Fedora, especially with rekonq, is unusable.15:14
BluesKajmparillo, ok thanks for the heads up. I tried it a while back and it was ok , but wasn't enough to hold me.15:15
mparilloI agree.15:19

_Groo_you guys need to drop the hard dependency18:33
_Groo_kio-mtp is for kde 4.x, kio mtp for kf5 is in kio-extras, but they should be instalable, both of them18:34
Riddell_Groo_: not yet I'm afraid, it's quite complex with new bits and arm failures19:23
_Groo_Riddell: np :) how about kio-mtp?19:24
Riddell_Groo_: they're both installable no? what's the problem there?19:26
_Groo_you cant install kio-mtp, they ARENT both installable19:27
_Groo_https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/L2unll0R19:27
_Groo_and its broken for some time now19:27
Riddell_Groo_: are you on vivid or utopic?19:29
_Groo_utopic, ci19:29
Riddellah right, yeah it'll need backported to utopic19:29
_Groo_i need to backport kio-mtp OR change plasma-desktop/workspace meta packages?19:30

Riddell_Groo_: what's your interest in calligra out of interest? do you use it as an office suite?19:43
Riddellmparillo: thanks for posting the wire post19:43
mparilloMy pleasure. Thanks for making me one of the cool guys.19:58
mparilloIf you want a user's .02 on Calligra (which it was Kalligra, but no matter). I would put up with it being a blt clunky feeling versus LO, but it must export MS-proprietary formats. Otherwise, I have to install LO anyway.20:03
_Groo_Riddell: yes i do, i love the flow app and i play around with krita a lot20:52
_Groo_flow is the most underrated app from the entire suite20:52

KDDAhi all, I have been running Kubuntu15.04 for a few weeks now and found it very stable.  However I have run into a problem.  For some reason when I log in Im getting a blank desktop, no kickoff menu or anything.  if I move my user account folder and log in, everything is fine again.  But when I copy over my files, it stops working again!21:17
soeesome configuration problems, did you upgrade from other version ?21:18
soeeKDDA: ^21:18
KDDAI came from 14.10, but clean install21:19
soeeKDDA: but you had .kde .config fodlers backed up ?21:19
KDDAit was working fine until about an hour ago (I was trying to install TileMill)21:19
ejatsoee: u mean after upgrade need to clean up the configuration .kde folder ? 21:20
_Groo_try removing .cache21:20
_Groo_and relog21:20
_Groo_leave theconfiguration files21:20
ejator only the .cache folder .. 21:20
_Groo_just remove .cache21:20
soeeejat: i had a lot of problems after upgrading21:20
KDDA_Groo_: I have just tried that21:20
_Groo_KDDA: and?21:20
_Groo_btw after removing .cache run kbuilsycoca521:21
KDDAcan get in, but no kickoff menu21:21
KDDAI renamed the .cache folder21:21
soeeRiddell: nice track :)21:21
_Groo_k, open a terminal and run plasmashell, and paste the output in pastebin21:21
_Groo_KDDA: dont rename, .cache is dispendable21:21
_Groo_remove it, run kbuilsycoca5, relog21:21
KDDAdoes it need sudo?21:22
KDDAplasmashell output is one line21:23
KDDAkf5.kiconthemes: "Theme tree: (Breeze)"21:23
KDDAkbuilsycoca5 = command not found21:24

_Groo_what does it show?21:28
_Groo_any wallpaper? anything?21:28
KDDAkf5.kiconthemes: "Theme tree: (Breeze)"21:28
KDDAmy wallpaper is showing since I renamed the .cache folder21:29
_Groo_no, visually21:29
_Groo_so, just no kickoff21:29
KDDAthe coloured triangles21:29
_Groo_if you click the right mouse button do you have a menu?21:29
KDDAno kickoff or running apps, or clock, taskbar21:29
KDDAyes21:29
KDDAthats how I was able to load browser and come here21:30
KDDAshould I try a relog?21:31
_Groo_aparently the old configurations arent working at all21:33
_Groo_i would start fresh :P21:33
_Groo_thats what i did when i migrated21:33
_Groo_too much differences to make it work21:33
KDDAI did start fresh21:33
KDDAmy "old" user account was Kubuntu 15.0421:34
_Groo_Riddell: ping21:34
KDDAI rebooted and it stopped working :/21:34
_Groo_do an apt-get update then, might be missing a package or whatever21:34
KDDAit was after an update, this problem started!21:35
=== rdieter is now known as rdieter_work
_Groo_so... might be missing stuff...21:35
_Groo_wont hurt21:36
KDDAhas anyone else rebooted recently?21:36

KDDAwell it only started after a reboot21:37
_Groo_KDDA: ok, try to see if there is an update21:38
_Groo_KDDA: you said that if you start with a new account everything works?21:38
KDDAand when I move my user account and force it to make a new one, it works, just missing all my settings and files21:38
KDDAthe launcher works, but all my applications done!21:38
KDDAdont21:38
_Groo_KDDA: what you mean the applications dont?21:39
KDDAKontact, IRC chat, Skype, all the stuff I use 21:40
Riddellhi _Groo_ 21:40
_Groo_KDDA: you are obviously missing stuff21:40
_Groo_KDDA: do an apt-get dist-upgrade21:40
KDDAyeah21:40
_Groo_KDDA: and paste the results21:41
_Groo_Riddell: so how do i start to become a kubuntu valiant minion? 21:41
KDDAif I moved the user account again and overwrite the new files into my old account would that fix it?21:41
_Groo_it you cant even open a kde/qt file , something is more wrong then just the config files21:42
_Groo_run kontact from the command line, does it open?21:42
KDDAoh there is a kernel update21:42
KDDAis that just released?21:43
Riddell_Groo_: do more useful stuff like backporting kio-mtp and apply for kubuntu-ninjas and apply for kubuntu-membership and apply for kubuntu-dev 21:43
