| zigo | Hi. Is the Ubottu bot connected to OFTC? | 08:50 |
|---|---|---|
| zigo | I'd like to have it in #debian-openstack, to tell us about launchpad bugs... | 08:50 |
| Mikaela | I don't think there are any Ubuntu bots at OFTC, but you will probably find Debian ones | 08:51 |
| zigo | Mikaela: Yeah, there's "BTS" (for which I'm searching for doc, BTW), but it wont tell about launchpad issues. | 08:58 |
| Mikaela | I think you might not get a bot to connect to OFTC, but they are FOSS so you should be able to setup a clone easily | 08:59 |
| Unit193 | zigo: Are you talking about a bot that tells you about new bugs, or when you paste a number? | 08:59 |
| Mikaela | https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-bots/ubuntu-bots/devel you need a Supybot though and might be interested inhttp://doc.supybot.aperio.fr/en/latest/use/install.html (meetingology uses it) | 09:01 |
| Mikaela | Does anyone have any idea who could be pinged about https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xchat/+bug/1437272 or if anyone has even seen that? | 10:33 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu bug 1437272 in xchat (Ubuntu) "XChat is dead and distributions are maintaining their own set of patches for it" [Undecided,Confirmed] | 10:33 |
| udsbotu | Launchpad bug 1437272 in xchat (Ubuntu) "XChat is dead and distributions are maintaining their own set of patches for it" [Undecided,Confirmed] | 10:33 |
| Zic | Mikaela: it does not solve the quoted bug, but you can try to take a look at Hexchat (packed in Ubuntu now) | 11:45 |
| Zic | a forked version of XChat which is maintained directly | 11:45 |
| Zic | look'n'feel are the same | 11:45 |
| Mikaela | solution would be removing XChat entirely from the repositories in favour of HexChat | 11:46 |
| Zic | or transform the xchat package to a dummy wich depends of hexchat, yes | 11:46 |
| Mikaela | that would be even better | 11:46 |
| Zic | personnaly I'm an irssi user, but I recommend Hexchat to my collegue for graphical IRC replacement of Xchat | 11:46 |
| Mikaela | I use WeeChat and when asked I also recommend HexChat as GUI, but there is high number of users who have just installed XChat from repositories :( | 11:47 |

| k1l_ | Mikaela: ^ | 12:50 |
| Mikaela | thanks | 12:50 |
| k1l_ | there were several bugs similar. but it might be that the whole xchat/hexchat is just pulled from debian and that they make the decision. and i think gnome still wants their xchat-gnome to be used. | 12:52 |
| Mikaela | isn't xchat-gnome also dead? | 12:52 |
| k1l_ | imho yes. | 12:53 |
| k1l_ | and it wasnt a good one anyway. it was too cut down to meet the gnome menu guidelines | 12:54 |
| k1l_ | maintainer for xchat is ubuntu-developers (so i guess its just the debian pull). a request on the -devel-discuss ML could be a startingpoint. | 12:58 |
| === egemaster__ is now known as egemaster | ||
| Unit193 | hexchat introduces bugs and annoyances it never fixed, so still reason to use xchat over hexchat for some. | 20:57 |
| hggdh | :w | 22:00 |
