sitterRiddell: ping08:09
ovidiu-florinWhat's the state of Wayland on Kubuntu?08:09
sitterRiddell: should I branch a kubuntu_vivid_backports from stable in plasma repos?08:09
sitteractually I probably should let it integrate first08:10
sitterovidiu-florin: it exists08:10
ovidiu-florinCan it be used? 08:11
sittersure08:11
sitterjust not productively08:11
sitterjust not for the majority of apps08:11
sitterjust not for 90% of the things you want to do with it08:11
sitterIIRC the timeline for kwin was having something usable early 2016 which we might then test or focus transition on with 16.10 (after lts)08:13
mgraesslinas long as the nvidia situation is not solved I doubt Kubuntu will be able to do a default transition anyway08:16
Riddellhi sitter 08:16
Riddellsitter: I'm confused why would you branch kubuntu_vivid_backports?08:17
Riddellmgraesslin: which nvidia situation?08:17
ovidiu-florinMy question exactly08:17
RiddellI think nvidia has many situations :)08:19
Riddellsitter: bug 1442512 has been reported as significant08:19

mgraesslinRiddell: not supporting Wayland08:20
ovidiu-florinYou mean the driver is hard-coded Xorg? 08:21
ovidiu-florinFor *08:21
mgraesslinno08:22
ovidiu-florinmgraesslin: what about on Intel boards? 08:22
mgraesslin?08:23
ovidiu-florinIf nvidia has issues with Wayland, does intel have them as well? 08:24
mgraesslinyou know that Wayland is mainly an Intel thing?08:25
ovidiu-florinI'm missing some knowledge 08:26
ovidiu-florinIs wikipedia a good starting point? 08:28
Riddellovidiu-florin: keith packard works for intel and does muchos wayland as I understand it08:29
mgraesslinRiddell: wrong08:30
RiddellI never said I understand it right :)08:30
mgraesslinRiddell: keith works for HP08:30
mgraesslinbut he used to work for intel08:30
ovidiu-florinOn Wayland? 08:30
mgraesslinmostly X08:30
ovidiu-florinI thought development stopped for Xorg 08:31
Riddell"Dave Morley (davmor2) renewed their own membership in the Kubuntu Members" yay davmor2 still loves us!08:31
mgraesslinno08:31
sitterRiddell: vivid_backports for whoever is going to package it at soome point08:33
sitterseeing as plasma 5.3 would land in backports08:33
sitterjust like apps15.0408:33
sitteralas, that also hasn't been packaged so there's that08:33
sitterRiddell: that apport crash is in breeze08:34
sitterin fact, it might actually be pyqt08:34
sitterI recall shadeslayer did workarounds to do with destruction of the app08:35
Riddellsitter: I'd leave branching until someone does the packaging08:35
sitterfair enough08:38
sitterPython Exception <type 'exceptions.RuntimeError'> Type does not have a target.: 08:38
=== greyback__ is now known as greyback
sitterRiddell: I think that something in apport-kde raises an exception which causes an abort which then crashes breeze because something is not deconstructing properly08:46
ovidiu-florinmgraesslin: do you use KDevelop?08:47

sitterlibmuon/backends/ApplicationBackend/ApplicationNotifier.cpp:                                                i18n("System update available!"),09:04
sitterthat's what is causing the notification spam on apt update09:04
Riddellmm right09:05
Riddellit's a reasonable thing to notify about but it needs to be a bit more clever about when it notifies09:05
sitterthe konsole crash is so flipping annoying09:07
RiddellI'm glad you agree09:07
Riddellit's not too hard to port away from KUniqueApplication09:07
Riddellbut that seems inelegant09:08
RiddellI want to know why other distros don't seem to get it09:08
lordievaderGood morning.09:19
sitterwell then09:23
sitterRiddell: I don't think that apport crash is new09:23
sitteror rather... I don't see how it could be new09:23
sitterit queries properties of the apport report object and for some reason it runs into a property that is a bytearray rather than a string to which pyqt says nono09:24
sitterso chances are the underlyign problem is really that the code in question is run on a property that has a bytearray where the bytearray most likely doesn't contain something that should be printed anyway09:25
sittersure doesn't help that I can't reproduce it with an actual crash09:29
Riddell:( thanks for looking into it09:32
sitterwhat we can do is force encode to utf8 string09:37
sitterthat would make it not raise an exception, although, the exception here isn't fatal if I cause it09:37
sitterso there must be something else astray on the affected systems09:38

sitteryofel: that should go in the packaging not the bug report 10:09
yofelwell, we can make a README.Debian I guess10:09
yofelI'm more interested on your opinion on the virtual-* stuff10:10
yofel*in10:10
sittersuch a long read10:10
sitterI'm in favor10:11
sitterthough I will also say that I wasn't too happy about the mariadb alternate. a package harddepping mariadb getting installed can totally bust a users akonadi without him realizing10:12
sitteror vice versa for that matter10:12
yofelsure, I mean we already had that issue with just mysql, which caused the backend getting replaced by sqlite. apt would happily replace mariadb-10 with mysql-5.6 if there's a problem10:14
yofelThere's not really anything you can do against that though as long as we don't ship an embedded copy of mysql10:14
yofelonly alternative is to only depend on mysql-5.6, which then means that people can't use mariadb or percona10:15
sitteryeah, it is somewhat meh10:16
yofelsitter: how about removing the hard dep on a-b-m, depping on virtual-* and instead adding a-b-m and mysql-server-core-5.6 to kubuntu-desktop deps?10:20
yofelThat's meh too, but maybe better represents what we actually support and what not...10:20
ovidiu-florinapt-get doesn't support wildcards anymore?10:20
yofelit should...10:20
yofelwhat did you use?10:20
ovidiu-florinyeah... it's regex now, not wildcards10:20
yofelaah10:21
sittereh?10:22
sitterapt-get doesn't have a perl regex parser and even the posix regex parsing is quite the hacky awfulness10:23

=== rdieter_work is now known as rdieter
soee_Guest50312: no idea i never hd this problem12:07
BluesKajI thought there already was an efi partition on the machine at purchase, and linux has to install grub on it , is this correct?12:11
Guest50312i do have an efi partition12:22
Guest50312i also have my bios set for "insecure boot"12:22
BluesKajI'm not sure , but i think it should be secure for efi mode12:23
Guest50312maybe, but 14.04 and 14.10 never complained12:24
Guest50312its something specific to the installer in vivid 15.0412:25
BluesKajperhaps  Guest50312 , I didn't fool around with efi when I got my laptop , just wiped the whole hdd clean then partitioned to ntfs and ext4 for dual booting W7 and Kubuntu, because at the time there was so much trouble with linux on efi I decided to bypass the problem entirely.12:42
Guest50312BluesKaj: i also whiped windows off and went straight linux. i have been windowless since about 200012:55
Guest50312but this is also the first laptop i've had that has efi, so on my previous installations, as i mentioned earlier, 14.04 and 14.10 i was able to install with efi partition no prob. now vivid is beta 2 and ubi-partman crashes on efi12:56
BluesKajyes, I understand a lot of users are reluctant to drop uefi since linux has mostly solved the installation problems with it 12:57
Guest50312right12:57
Guest50312what i'm trying now is just deleting the efi partition and see if that will work12:57
Guest50312since i am booting insecurely, i should be ok12:58
BluesKajit should work, that's what's puzzling about your crashes12:58
Guest50312but that doesnt really address the installer crashing on efi12:59
Guest50312well, i gave the link to pastebin12:59
Guest50312that shows the log of what happened12:59
BluesKajGuest50312, beta 2 is available in the dailies , maybe you'll have better luck with it13:20

RiddellACs that sometimes work, but indeed no sink, if you have a spare one send it this way13:39
ovidiu-florinKDESVN is not available in vivid13:45
sitterRiddell: I don't get why plasma-sdk is in workspace btw13:45
Riddellsitter: is it?13:46
Riddellovidiu-florin: I'm afraid it overlapped with something in kf5 land13:46
sitterRiddell: getting released with workspace makes it a workspace thing, no?13:47
Riddellsitter: getting released with plasma makes it a plasma thing13:47
Riddellthere is no workspace thing13:47
sitterright13:48
sitterso why does my mom's plasma need an sdk?13:48
xennex81mom jokes on the way13:48
xennex81:p13:48
sitterI hereby herald the return of kde sc because there officially is no more distinction between frameworks, plasma and apps13:48

ovidiu-florinquick vote: how would you feel about spliting the community page in Contribute and Support?16:02
ovidiu-florinhttp://kubwp.kubuntu.co.uk/community/16:02
yofelwouldn't that duplicate support content? contribute OTOH could probably be folded into community though16:04
yofelhm, wait, support is already only linked (ask ubuntu is also community though..)16:07
ovidiu-florincontribute is a more call to action term16:07
soee_@ frontpage, i would replace the first icon (download) with something else, and put a big Download button in banner section16:07
soee_one sec, ill show you one of my old drafts16:08
yofelwhy not make the banner a link?16:08
soee_https://cloud.soee.pl/index.php/s/3w9ehEhlvpvwBgw16:09
soee_yofel: i woudl also separat ebanner image (us eonly backgorund) and put text on separate layer16:10
yofelthat could work16:10
yofelFWIW, if you want a green download button, you might as well color the Download entry in the navbar green16:11
Riddellsgclark: the most time consuming part of frameworks is that launchpad isn't clever enough to work out the retries so you need to run ./kubuntu-retry-builds to fix it (see README)16:12
yofelhm, that looks ugly tough -.-16:13
sgclarkRiddell: okies16:13
yofelsoee_: is the banner intentionally that huge? On my 1600x900 notebook the only text I see at first is the navbar and the banner... the icons below are too far down16:13
soee_yofel: ithink banner shoudl be the main element visible on frontpage when user hits it16:14
yofelRiddell: does updating kf5 to 5.9 in vivid actually fix any serious bugs? Or what use case does it have less than a week before final freeze...?16:14
soee_and it shudl contain text about current kubuntu version and maybe some motto + button to download page 16:14
yofelsoee_: not arguing against that, but what I see is https://kyofel.de/owncloud/index.php/s/mqX2uqmrEQikaK816:15
yofelwhich... doesn't feel quite right16:15
yofel(ignore the green at the top ^^)16:16
soee_well the banner could be even bigger imo16:19
soee_example http://www.gt3themes.com/website-templates/groutek/home_type4.html16:20
Riddellyofel: it's 0.1 better?  it means we can backport plasma without worrying about backporting frameworks with it?16:20
yofelsoee_: that would be better, yeah16:21
Riddellyofel: even if it doesn't go in it's not like it's wasting scarlett's time it'll go into backports ppa16:21
Riddellinfact it could go into backports backports16:21
yofelRiddell: sure, didn't argue about that. My hair just stands up if I read uploads with patchery so close to release...16:21
soee_Riddell: when this patch from tseliot might land in vivid ?16:28
Riddellsoee_: when someone adds it, my head's pretty broken just now so I can't right now16:31
soee_why broken :) ?16:34
Riddellsoee_: oh randomness of a head with a head injury, but it's friday evening so I guess it knows I've been spending too long on the plasma 5.3 announcement16:42
soee_take a break :)16:42
Riddellmm, now you mention it, good idea :)16:45
sgclarkRiddell: gosh I am so freaking confused on all this merge stuff, I merge unstable to backport sor what ? where? sigh17:01
* soee_ wonders why it is so complicated :)17:04
sgclarkI am sure it isn't but I have had my kde hat on for too long and fell behind17:04
sgclarkok I hate ruby17:14

sgclarkeverytime I try to install a gem I get package metadata is missing two seperate computers now17:17
sgclarkagain I hate ruby17:17
sgclarkall I want to do is run this merge script :(17:18
Riddellsgclark: for frameworks it's just kubuntu_unstable into kubuntu_vivid_archive17:19
yofelwhy is it unstable for a released version of frameworks o.O?17:20
Riddellsoee_: it's complex because there's kde stable and unstable, frameworks, plasma and applications and ubuntu vivid and 14.1017:20
Riddellso that's a lot of combinations17:20
yofeloh right, frameworks has no branches17:20
yofelshadeslayer: could one of you CI people please make a README for the branch merging? 17:21
shadeslayeryofel: https://community.kde.org/images.community/a/a5/Kubuntu_CI_Mergeflow.png17:22
sgclarkRiddell: okies, well I can't even get this script to work17:22
shadeslayeryofel: https://community.kde.org/Kubuntu/CI#Merges17:22
Riddellsgclark: kubuntu-initial-upload does already have a git merge command in it, it's not well tested but it should merge while packaging17:23
sgclarkRiddell: ahh lovely17:24
sgclarkthanks17:24
Riddelljust needs a -b unstable (I hope)17:24
yofelshadeslayer: ok, that's something at least17:26
yofelRiddell: that's not the correct error handling... or do you really log the whole script output and grep for what couldn't be merged?17:27
yofelI'm curious what your workflow is there..17:28
sgclarkshadeslayer: logger/colors ? what can I install to make that available to ruby17:29
sgclarkcolorize did nothing, ruby-color did nothing17:30

sgclarkRiddell: some clarity please, dfaure says to patch plasma-nm but that is not a framework. What am I patching here?18:35
Riddellsgclark: patch plasma-nm if modemmanager-qt 5.9 is used with it18:37
Riddellmodemmanager-qt changed for frameworks so plasma-nm has to be changed with it18:37

llucas__soee_ well but the time of the video is rather limited, so I would like to know more details first ;)19:58
ahoneybunllucas__: I would like to see dolphin being used (as it is awesome)19:59
soeei think there shoudl be 2 versions, one not longer thn 2 min, and one ~ 5-10 min19:59
soeeso teh shortes wuld be liek promo video, second showing features more detailed20:00
ahoneybunsoee: llucas__a prime example would be that features video for Antergos20:01
soeepromo video with boring begining https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQ7kqwbqeiI20:02
soeebut from ~ 20 seconds it is fine20:02
llucas__Unfortunately my time is also limited, and i am afraid that we must focus on one video20:03
soeebrb going to break my system problably, after nvidia drivers has been installed 20:04
llucas__would you mind to post a link to this antegros video?20:05
llucas__ahoneybun?20:05
Riddellooh llucas__ 20:05
Riddellhi20:05
llucas__hi20:05
Riddellthanks for coming by20:06
llucas__no problem20:06
Riddellreally sorry I haven't got in touch more20:06
llucas__yeah I know that pain, to little time for everything ;)20:07
Riddellllucas__: 2 weeks until release20:08
Riddellllucas__: first major distro with plasma 520:08
Riddellso it's mostly a video about how great plasma 5 is that we want20:08
Peace-Riddell: mmm it s not a good release i have to say 20:08
RiddellPeace-: oh wheesht, it's going to be awesome20:08
Peace-Riddell: crash a lots20:08
llucas__Riddell so what features of kubuntu I should promote?20:08
llucas__guys please be more specific ;)20:09
Riddellllucas__: let's pick some highlights from https://www.kde.org/announcements/plasma5.0/ https://www.kde.org/announcements/plasma-5.1/ https://www.kde.org/announcements/plasma-5.2.0.php20:09
Riddelland https://www.kde.org/announcements/announce-applications-14.12.3.php20:10
Riddellllucas__: so a) technical bits rewritten with qt 5, frameworks 5 and QML (don't dwell on that but it's nice to set the scene for those who know)20:11
Peace-for me , like always stability it s the first thing20:11
Peace-and yeah plasma 5 it s nice but not stable20:11
tuv0kI wonder if well see the addition of most of the plasma widgets from the 4x series. The weather wallpaper desktop, system monitor widgets. They all seem to be missing now. But I'd play up the new design, and stability, when stabilty arrives.20:12
Peace-users are going to be mad like  before20:12
llucas__Yes I can do it, but there will not be much time for corrections, and if there will be something you do not like, time may be pressing 20:12
Riddellllucas__: b) shiny new artwork, breeze widget and icon theme20:12
llucas__ok20:12
Peace-Riddell: and in task manager you can-t understand a thing because it-s all grey20:13
Peace-...20:13
Riddellllucas__: c) muon discover your app centre20:13
Peace-when you minimize icons on dolphin the icons became monocrome20:13
Peace-and it-s  a no sense20:14
llucas__ahh muon discover this is not good example20:14
Riddellllucas__: slick integration of systray panels20:14
Riddellllucas__: kdeconnect by default makes your phone work with your desktop20:15
Riddellllucas__: krunner, alt-space to search for files, play/pause music, do calculator..20:17
llucas__something else?20:19
Riddellllucas__: applications all up to date, krita bling to draw pretty stuff, kdenlive for videos, nifty plasma widgets20:22
llucas__ok I think that will be enough for 2 minutes ;)20:24
llucas__btw what iso should i download (daily or beta 2)?20:25
ahoneybunllucas__: Beta 2 is darn solid20:26
llucas__ok so I will download beta 2 then20:26
llucas__as I understand it is possible to install nvidia drivers (needed for screen recording)?20:28
ahoneybunllucas__: its possible20:28
ahoneybunI just have not20:28
ahoneybunhas I have need for nvidia prime20:29

llucas__see you later ;)20:35
Riddellahoneybun: nice start on https://userbase.kde.org/Kubuntu/Installation but also needs instructions for if using windows or mac or another distro20:37
Riddellhttp://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop/create-a-usb-stick-on-windows might help but needs checking the instructions are sane20:37
Riddellvalorie: what's the make a usb app you use?20:38
Peace-it's not  at pendrivelinux.com 20:38
Peace-?20:38
RiddellPeace-: that just points to usb-creator which doesn't work very well20:40
Riddellhttps://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Create_a_Live_USB_stick_using_Windows might have other ideas20:40

xennex81i had this after dist-upgrade from 14.10, never had it in alpha 221:40

Riddellsgclark: for plasma-nm?21:49
sgclarkyep21:49
* Riddell tries21:51
Riddellsgclark: works ok here, some fuzz that needs a quilt refresh21:53

sgclarkwhat do you mean ? quilt refresh here just sayss no patches applied21:54
=== Guest26264 is now known as ahoneybun
Riddellsgclark: what have you done to the package?22:00
sgclarkI only added the patch and ran git-package build whatever ppa22:01
sgclarkI guess I need to do a full debuild?22:02
sgclarksorry distracted22:02
Riddelloh there's fuzz so you will need to refresh22:03

ahoneybunRiddell: getting there https://userbase.kde.org/Kubuntu/Installation22:27
mparilloahoneybun: Looks awesome. I love screenshots, but especially for dd (https://userbase.kde.org/Kubuntu/Installation#USB.27s.2FFlash_Drives_2) some text I can cut and paste might be nice.22:34
mparilloThis is not targeted at old unix folks, right? So the root versus sudo thing is not appropriate. I like the way you say that the password you enter is used for certain tasks (alas, connecting to my wireless with every boot).22:37
ahoneybunmparillo: for ubuntu based sudo would be included22:39
ahoneybunbut for other distros or setups just doing su and then run the command  would work22:39
ahoneybunmost of the new user docs cover sudo so I think it is needed22:40

valorieahoneybun: I have a suggestion for the DD image -- use a real path instead of path/to/iso etc.23:12
valorieI get far too many people in #kubuntu using path/to/whatever instead of an actual path23:13
valoriebut they instantly get it if I show a real path23:13
