[12:54] <ahayzen> Hey, I've recently become an Ubuntu Member and was wondering how one acquires an Ubuntu Cloak? This is my lp page https://launchpad.net/~ahayzen
[12:54] <k1l> this is the right channel :) now we need to wait for some IRCC member to confirm and then for a staffer to set the cloak.
[12:55] <k1l> congrats ahayzen btw :)
[12:55] <ahayzen> k1l, cool, thanks :)
[13:39] <Fuchs> we could prod Pici with a very pointy stick
[13:39] <Pici> Fuchs: Wouldn't help if I can't find a staffer
[13:43] <Fuchs> aww, mean staffies, are they hiding again
[13:43] <Fuchs> then we could try poking Pricey with a terribly pointy stick, or something :p
[13:43] <Pricey> staffers are always around!
[13:44] <Fuchs> See?
[13:44]  * Fuchs eats the pointy stick
[13:46] <Fuchs> (now I just hope that people are not only around but actually get the cloak done!)
[13:47] <Fuchs> (else the pointy stick was pointless)
[13:53] <Pici> Pricey: could you please grant ahayzen an ubuntu/member/ahayzen cloak?
[13:54] <Pici> thanks :)\
[13:56] <Pricey> ahayzen: Congratulations!
[13:56] <ahayzen> Pricey, thanks :)
[13:56] <Fuchs> yay! Congratulations ahayzen, thanks P-people
[13:56] <Pricey> P-people are the best.
[13:56] <ahayzen> thanks do i need todo anything else?
[13:56] <Pricey> ahayzen: sasl ftw. http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#nocloakonjoin
[13:57] <Fuchs> /nick Phuchs
[13:57] <ahayzen> Pricey, cool i'll have a look into that thanks :) and do i need to join https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-irc-cloaks ?
[13:58] <Fuchs> they will put you in there, usually
[13:58] <Fuchs> (them being, in this case, Pici)
[13:58] <Pricey> I haven't a clue, freenode doens't manage that.
[13:58] <ahayzen> ah cool :)
[14:03] <Pici> ahayzen: I'll throw you in that group as soon as my computer starts behaving (don't worry, its running Windows)
[14:04] <ahayzen> Pici, awesome thanks :)
[14:09] <ahayzen> Pricey, hmm i get "SASL is supported but there is no authentication information set for this network(ubuntu servers)." when XChat connects :/ (i've probably done something obvious wrong)
[14:11] <Fuchs> ahayzen: you have to  /sasl set  it for the correct network  (case sensitive)
[14:11] <ahayzen> what would the network be? 'ubuntu servers' or 'freenode' or ?
[14:11] <Fuchs> ahayzen: whatever is written in your XChat Server dialogue
[14:12] <Fuchs> freenode would be the correct name, but chances are, from that error message, that XChat calls it ubuntu servers
[14:15] <Fuchs> ahayzen: in general it's recommended to use HexChat, it's an XChat fork, so you get the same UI, all the same features but some additional ones, including out of the box SASL support
[14:15] <Fuchs> which requires a bit less awkward configuration and has cute GUIs for it
[14:16] <ahayzen> ah that maybe better then :) it doesn't seem to like the space when trying to use set lol
[14:34] <ahayzen> Yey got it all setup thanks folks :)
[14:38] <Fuchs> You're welcome ♥
[14:40] <Pici> yay
[15:18] <Mikaela> I am still worried by XChat being shipped with all distributions or being available in the repos and every distribution adding their own set of patches to it. I have voiced my concern in bug report and question, but I feel like they are ignored and I am worrying it looks like I am attacking the packagers or something.
[15:18] <Mikaela> Another commonly occurring SASL issue is using DH-something instead of PLAIN.
[15:34] <Pici> Mikaela: If you're not getting a response in Ubuntu's bug tracking, you could always try going upstream to Debian
[15:35] <Mikaela> that would probably require installing Debian for reportbug or something and I am not sure how things work on that side
[15:38] <Pici> I'm pretty sure you can just send an email.
[15:42] <Pici> Or just contact the maintainer and see what they say about it
[15:44] <Mikaela> I don't know, I hope they will visit the Ubuntu tracker sometime
