didrocksmorning Laney08:05
seb128hey Laney, how are you? good w.e?08:06
Laneyhey fellas08:08
LaneyIt was three days but I don't entirely remember what I did on Saturday08:08
Laneywtf08:08
Laneyanyway the other days were nice, climbing and seeing friends!08:08
Laneythe staying up all night bit was not so fun in the end08:09
larsuLaney: because of the result?08:10
Laneyya08:10
Laneyquite a few big beasts lost their seats which I guess was interesting in a schadenfreude kind of way08:11
larsuah right, you don't have that list thing going on that we have in addition to direct candidates08:11
Laneynop08:11
seb128Laney, do you know if we have details on what can go to restricted and how you target that section?08:16
seb128https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Ubuntu states but " Supported software that is not available under a completely free license." but that's not really explaining a lot of the details08:16
Laneythe normal way when you accept the new packages no?08:16
LaneyI thought that it was only meant to be non free drivers though08:17
seb128right08:17
seb128happyaron is asking because he wants to get some IM things there08:17
Laneyis it redistributable?08:17
seb128I'm unsure about the details08:18
seb128they include binaries in the deb that are not built from the source/on our infrastructure08:19
seb128the copyright states08:19
seb128"The binary package (without modification) is freely redistributable08:19
seb128 for non-commercial purpose,"08:19
Laneyfreely (not freely)08:20
LaneyI guess talk with the rest of the archive team08:20
seb128right08:21
seb128thanks Laney08:21
Laneyis there going to be some UI way to install this?08:21
seb128I think they would like a checkbox in ubiquity08:35

dholbach<310:11
dholbachthanks seb128, Laney and larsu10:11
Laneydholbach: I think the review requested on 2015-05-05 was by me. ;-)10:14
dholbachah yes10:15
larsuI hate MRs that don't explain what they do10:15
larsu"Add MATE compatibility" :/10:15
larsucaja is their renamed nautilus?10:19
Laneyya10:20
larsuto be honest, I'd prefer it if mate shipped its own theme10:20
seb128that's a valid position, feel free to comment saying that10:21
larsuwe already have a apps/nautilus.rc - and now we need to add caja just because they didn't like the name?10:21
seb128we can also symlink if that's easy?10:22
larsuwhich gets loaded for everyone (even non-mate users)10:22
seb128or can't they get their fork to load nautilus.css?10:22
larsuseb128: no, the file contains references to the renamed widgets...10:22
willcookethere would be less maintenance for us too if they shipped their own right?10:22
seb128oh, right, they renamed code/widgets10:22
larsuwillcooke: ya. They forked all the things and renamed widget classes and such, which is why this is an issue10:22
seb128less maintenance +110:23
larsuI mean, it's totally not a big deal to ship this one thing of course10:23
seb128if we can support them at low cost we should10:23
larsuI guess I'm making a slippery slope argument10:23
seb128but if they create work they should maintain it, it would also make them not block on us for review/upload10:23
larsubut I really think they'd be better off with their own theme (including faster turn around for them, which is something they're complaining about)10:23
seb128+110:23
larsuand I don't feel I'm in the right position to test this properly (would have to install mate etc)10:24
larsuthe icon symlinks are a good idea I guess, but would be moot after we move to -symbolic, which is something other desktops have been asking about as well10:25
larsuand it's something I wanted to look at this cycle anyway (hi ochosi ;) )10:25
Laneypretty sure that they already forked the themes10:25
Laneythis would only be interesting if we were going to merge again10:25
larsuLaney: do you think that would be worthwhile?10:26
Laneyhttps://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-mate-artwork/0.4.710:26
larsuI'm only arguing slippery slope here - this is really not that big of a deal10:26
larsuis someone of the MATE devs around?10:26
LaneyIf someone can get added to the team so they can fix/review themselves then maybe10:28
Laneythat'll be flexiondotorg10:28
Laney(not added right now, but soon)10:29
larsuflexiondotorg: hey, what are your plans regarding the theme (see scrollback)? You forked it, but want to merge again?10:30
larsuLaney: I really think it'd be easier if they had a fork to make sure we don't step on each other's toes. We don't check if our changes break MATE (and probably not the other way around either)10:31
Laneyokay10:32
larsulet's wait for their rationale thoguh10:32

ubot5bug 1453763 in rhythmbox (Ubuntu) "Unable to differentiate between toggled and untoggled buttons" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/145376311:04
larsupopey: same issue in vivid. The gradient is different, but I agree that it's hard to spot. I'll reassign to the theme11:08
larsus/spot/discern11:09
larsuand I guess we need a design task for this as well...11:09
flexiondotorgLaney, seb128, dholbach, larsu, willcooke - Ubuntu MATE does have it's own forked versions of the light themes.11:28
larsuflexiondotorg: so the MR we were looking at is obsolete?11:28
flexiondotorgThe merge proposal was just to add basic compatibility to Ambiance and Radiance.11:28
flexiondotorglarsu, Well, it is old. I don;t know it will apply cleanly.11:28
larsuflexiondotorg: regardless of whether it applies, why do you think we need compatibility if you have your own theme?11:29
mptTrevinho, hi, could you possibly take a minute to answer the last commenter’s question in bug 1308800?11:29
ubot5bug 1308800 in unity (Ubuntu) "Unity doesn't respawn all the times on crashes" [Critical,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/130880011:29
flexiondotorglarsu, Mainly because you can just install MATE from the repos but not use Ubuntu MATE. In that case the panels are not correctly rendered by Ambiance and Radiance.11:30
larsuflexiondotorg: hm - that means we'll always have to mirror the themes, right?11:32
flexiondotorglarsu, Yes, I am merging changes to the ubuntu-mate-artwork package periodically.11:33
flexiondotorglarsu, There are some changes I am carrying that are probably not suitable for Ambiance and Radiance so I can't see that we can unify them.11:34
flexiondotorglarsu, But the minor tweak to get MATE working with Ambiance and Radiance will be fine to merge.11:34
larsuflexiondotorg: but using Ambiance on mate will give a subpar experience anyway...11:35
flexiondotorglarsu, No, it works well. Just the panel issue really.11:37
flexiondotorglarsu, What do you forsee as subpar?11:37
larsuflexiondotorg: well, you do have a fork, so presumably that's what you want people to use, no?11:38
larsuflexiondotorg: that merge request contains much more than the panel issue11:38
flexiondotorglarsu, The fork was mostly because of the panel issue to start with. Since then I've overridden the symbolic icons with full color icons and changed the orange highlighting to green.11:39
flexiondotorglarsu, In essence Amiant-MATE and Radiant-MATE are 99% of Ambiance and Radiance. Just with green hinting and full colour icons.11:39
larsuflexiondotorg: so it seems that merging the panel fixes into Ambiance is enough?11:41
flexiondotorglarsu, Yes. I think so.11:41
larsuflexiondotorg: that sounds much more reasonable. Mind updating the MR (or making a new one)?11:42
flexiondotorglarsu, OK. I'll do it sometime this week.11:42
