EtriaphPolls are open.01:39
sgclarkEtriaph: umm were we suppose to get an email or something?01:48
EtriaphI started the poll, provided all of the addresses that were available, but I don't know how long it takes for their system to send it out.01:49
EtriaphOnly three members are missing for ballots, but I can add them as soon as I have email addresses.01:50
sgclarkahh seems my mail is behind, hopefully I have a ballot01:51
EtriaphIf not, I've never used their software before, but it seemed straightforward with respect to options.01:51
EtriaphIt could be stopped if need be.01:52
EtriaphDid Rohan have any issues last year with it?01:53
sgclarkI found my mail, all good. was my mail server01:53
EtriaphOh, excellent!01:53
Etriaphsgclark: Thanks for confirmation the ballots are working :D01:54
sgclark:) thanks for doing the elections :)01:54
Etriaphsgclark: It's a meaningful way to contribute.  :D01:54
sgclarkyep!01:55
Etriaphsgclark: FYI, if you're interested, someone passed along this gem to me today:  http://devdocs.io/01:57
sgclarkoh wow how cool is that01:58
Etriaphahoneybun: We should find a way to integrate developer documentation into http://devdocs.io/01:58
EtriaphOffline storage :D01:58
EtriaphDisconnect your laptop and the site's content is still available.01:58
EtriaphVery smart idea.  That system, devdocs.io, is on github01:59
EtriaphGonna fork that and see what I can do with it :D01:59
ahoneybunawesome Etriaph02:05
Etriaphahoneybun: Getting the KDE class docs into that would be handy.02:16
EtriaphAnd any custom QML stuff that KDE provides.02:16
EtriaphDoes anyone know when we'll have a build of QML WebEngine?  Or is there a package for it now?02:17
Etriaphhttp://tinyurl.com/on9autp02:19
ahoneybunKDE class?02:20
ahoneybunuserbase you mean?02:20
EtriaphThe KDE API docs for KF502:20
ahoneybunoh02:20
EtriaphMore tools for developers means more apps :D02:21
ahoneybuntrue02:22
ahoneybunso that page is for? I still don;t understand what it is Etriaph02:22
Etriaphahoneybun: You mean devdocs.io or the page I linked?02:23
ahoneybundevdocs02:23
EtriaphThey built an app that allows you to download documentation for offline browsing02:23
ahoneybunoh02:23
EtriaphSo you can sync, have the docs available, and it updates them when you connect again02:23
ahoneybunsweet02:23
ahoneybunI saw that is support mobike02:24
ahoneybun*mobile02:24
EtriaphYup; you could store docs on your phone.02:24
EtriaphBut... the site's code is open source.02:24
ahoneybunwell making the docs pdf does the same02:24
EtriaphSo we could fork it, put documentation in our channels into it02:24
EtriaphYa, but PDF doesn't sync on version updates.02:25
ahoneybunyea02:25
EtriaphSo.. small QML app with a browser for reading on Desktop, then in browser for tablet and mobile02:25
ahoneybunsweet02:26
ahoneybuncould be a widget as well02:26
EtriaphYup, that would be natural to do as well.02:28
EtriaphPlasma Active could have an app.02:28
EtriaphRead docs on the tablet while working on desktop.02:28
ahoneybunActive is a bit slow atm with Plasma 5 and such going on02:28
Etriaph*nods*02:28
ahoneybunEtriaph: have you seen my slideshow?02:30
Etriaphahoneybun: Not yet.. what's it on?02:30
ahoneybunhaving a single/few languages for the docs02:31
ahoneybunof all the projects02:31
ahoneybunhttps://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6zAAODZFwQ2SGJCQ1YxRE1IaUU/view?usp=sharing02:31
ahoneybunsince all the projects (xubuntu, lubuntu, kubuntu) docs are on different sites it can be annoying to find them02:32
ahoneybunand the ubuntu wiki is bad with MoinMoin02:32
EtriaphIn the past, with producing documentation, I always had an internal format that exported to several external ones.02:34
EtriaphChoose what you want to work with the most, to produce documentation, and let everything else read from that.02:35
ahoneybunLaTeX is the most used, with the Ubuntu Docs, Server Docs, and Xubuntu Docs02:36
EtriaphSo all you need to do is learn to transform LaTeX02:36
EtriaphOr to LaTeX02:37
EtriaphWhat would you prefer to work with?02:37
ahoneybunI really like RST02:37
ahoneybunrestructuredText02:37
ahoneybunI would help move things over02:38
EtriaphNow do you want restructuredText for the next four or five years?02:38
EtriaphDoes it support all possible documentation presentational elements you may need down the road?02:39
ahoneybunit works and has been around for a while02:39
ahoneybunsupports imgs, sections02:39
ahoneybuntables, bullets02:39
* ahoneybun is still researching02:40
EtriaphCan I ask you to consider something?02:40
ahoneybunsure02:41
EtriaphDo you think a technical writer, who chooses to donate time documenting in the future, would enjoy using restructeredText?02:41
ahoneybunI like it02:42
ahoneybunbut for users/contributors they can file bugs against it in LP or Git02:42
EtriaphDo you have control over the resulting processing?02:43
ahoneybunand contributors fix them02:43
ahoneybunwell the bug tracking system on LP and Git?02:43
Etriaphie. could I take your source and decide what kind of HTML output I get for it?02:43
EtriaphAnd then do like: rt-transform my_doc.rt template.in out.html02:44
ahoneybunwith sphinx we can export to HTML02:44
ahoneybuneBook, and PDF02:44
EtriaphSphinx, lemme see02:44
ahoneybunhttp://sphinx-doc.org02:44
ahoneybunwait02:44
ahoneybunit uses LaTeX for the PDF02:45
ahoneybunoh wow02:45
EtriaphYa, this is interesting.02:46
ahoneybunso we (kubuntu) could using RST, then export to LaTeX, while Lubuntu just write LaTeX02:47
ahoneybunthough ours would be one long file from the looks of it02:48
EtriaphThere must be a TOC02:48
EtriaphThat would produce links to anchors02:48
ahoneybunanyway I have to go to sleep02:49
Etriaphahoneybun: Night02:49

kubotuThanks for voting -- The Illuminati12:58
* sitter wonders what the deal with the panda is12:58
sgclarklol nice12:58
sittersgclark: are you going to do applications for wily right away?13:01
sgclarkwell I have to set up a chroot first, I have not touched wily yet13:01
sitteryou could just run on vivid, there's no real difference anyway ;)13:01
* sitter wonders how backporting is supposed to work nowadays13:02
sgclarkokies13:02
sitterkubuntu_stable ⇢ kubuntu_wily_archive ⇢ kubuntu_vivid_backports13:04
sitterif so then I'd branch kubuntu_stable ⇢ kubuntu_wily_archive. that should get packaged, once that is super awesome one would merge kubuntu_wily_archive ⇢ kubuntu_vivid_backports and upload vivid13:05
sgclarkokies13:07
sitteragh, apps has kde4 bits again -.-13:07
sgclarkmmhm still for sometime I am afraid13:08
sitterme too13:08
sitterso actually the merge process probably is: kubuntu_vivid_archive ⇢ kubuntu_vivid_backports (which is already done for kf5 packages) AND THEN kubuntu_stable ⇢ kubuntu_wily_archive (if there is no kubuntu_stable: kubuntu_vivid_backports ⇢ kubuntu_wily_archive) then wily gets packaged. then kubuntu_wily_archive ⇢ kubuntu_vivid_backports and vivid gets packaged.13:10
sitterclearly someone should port all the kde4 stuff so I don't get my brain all twisted over merges13:10
sitterhttp://paste.ubuntu.com/11113339/13:12
sittercase in point13:12
sitterhow do those bastards even diverge13:12
sgclarkdidnt we already merge that in 15.04.0?13:13

sittersgclark: we only branched, there was no merge afterwards 13:14
sittersgclark: why is that version UNRELEASED in archive though?13:14
sitterseems either that should not be unreleased or that actually did not land in vivid?13:15
sgclarkit did nto land in vivid it looks to me13:15
sgclarkhmm13:16

=== bduncan_ is now known as bduncan
yofelhow is that weird?13:19
sitterwhy backports was branched from the first commit in the repo is beyond me13:19
yofelah hm13:20
sitterhttp://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-kde/applications/artikulate.git/log/13:20
sitterassuing my intial backports branch script crapped out and branched from master rather than a suitable branch it shouldn't have used the first commit as there were some 20 commits ontop of it13:20
sitterso that branch makes no sense13:21
sittersgclark: since artikular isn't wrap-clean... please make sure to setup a git template so new clones are forced to have a wrapped debian/ directory http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-kde/git-hooks.git/13:24
sgclarkumm13:25
sgclarkhow do I do that?13:26
sittersee readme13:26
sitterkde-wallpapers also has problems13:29
yofelcould that hook check first if one pushes to pkg-kde/ ?13:29
yofelcurrently that applies to all and any commits..13:29
BluesKaji just load wallpapers from the pictures file , the wallpapers available from kde-look are ok, but I prefer my own familiar scenes13:30
sgclarkeerr for all repos? that could be a problem with my work with kde and such13:30
sittersgclark: only if the repo has a debian/ dir13:31
sgclarkahh okies cool13:31
yofelI meant any package..13:31
sitteryofel: feel free to expand, probably just needs to check what origin points to13:31
sgclarksure ok fine13:31
sitterI don't think the script actually gets the remote passed as argument or something, though I might be mistaken13:32
sitterchecking origin should be a decent enough approximation at any rate13:32
sitteroh oh oh13:33
sitterI remember!13:33
sitteryofel: you created kubuntu_unstable for some kde4 apps when you created the initial repos supposedly because I hadn't pointed out that we only integrate kf513:34
yofelprobably, which I still don't understand, but whatever13:34
sitterno point investing time in stuff that is going anyway :P13:34
sitter*going away13:34
yofelsure, but it makes things complicated in other places13:35
sitteranywho, this wasn't a problem because we only CI'd applications based on a seclection list what with most apps being kde4. the branching scripts however merged without discrimination so they would create the backports from those incredibly outedated kubuntu_unstable branches on kde4 repos13:35
sitteryofel: such as?13:36
yofelmerging in kubuntu-initial-upload? or what does git do if you want to merge an inexistent branch? (Can't say I ever tried that)13:38
sitterinitial-upload doesn't merge, I have a special script for that13:39
yofeler, it does merge..13:39
sitterwhich has a list of origins, if it fails to find an origin it picks the next best one13:39
sitterwhich is something I need anyway because some upstreams have no 'stable' release13:39
sitterso there's always a case where a repo has no kubuntu_stable and needs logic to automatically fall through to kubuntu_unstable13:40
yofelwait what? "else: #not sru\n ... git merge origin/kubuntu_%s_backports ..."13:40
sitterOo13:41
sitterwtf13:41
sitteryofel: in initial upload?13:41
sgclarksitter:  yes that merges now13:41
yofelsitter: er, correction, "git checkout origin/kubuntu_%s_backports, git merge origin/kubuntu_%s"13:41
yofelstill, it hardcodes backports o.O13:42
