[05:41] <rect> Hi all, I have an idea for desktop ubuntu inspired by some thoughts I have just after getting a new laptop
[05:42] <rect> Essentially I am noticing that there is general friction when using multiple computers-- it is annoying to synchronize data and configuration between computers
[05:45] <rect> I have some thoughts about how to do this, and am starting on working on proof of concepts that remedy this, but I was wondering if there is an ubuntu-sanctioned way to contribute to the distro and project
[05:45] <didrocks> good morning
[05:47] <didrocks> rect: hey! Nothing special, just write your poof and communicate about it. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ContributeToUbuntu#Writing_Code may have some ML to where to write to
[05:48] <rect> Ah, so should I hop onto ubuntu-devel?
[05:49] <didrocks> rect: yeah, that would make more sense, but only once you get something concrete to discuss about I guess. Building a poof is a nice way to achieve this :)
[05:49] <rect> didrocks: what is a poof?
[05:51] <didrocks> rect: sorry poc (prof of concept)
[05:51] <didrocks> proof*
[05:51] <didrocks> rect: not completely awake here. Needing coffee, brb :)
[05:58] <TheMuso> c -all
[05:58] <TheMuso> whoops
[07:42] <Sweet5hark> good morning, desktoppers!
[07:45] <didrocks> hey hey Sweet5hark!
[07:47] <seb128> good morning desktopers
[07:47] <seb128> hey Sweet5hark didrocks
[07:47] <didrocks> re seb128
[07:54] <Sweet5hark> strong french showing this morning. maybe I should indeed polish my french a bit. After all its the official desktop team language.
[07:57] <seb128> Sweet5hark, oui :-)
[07:58] <seb128> no larsu, no pitti, the german crew is limited today
[08:03] <Laney> HEYYYYY
[08:03] <seb128> hey Laney, how are you?
[08:07] <didrocks> good morning Laney!
[08:08] <Laney> hey seb128 and didrocks!
[08:08] <Laney> doing good thanks
[08:08] <Laney> good weekends?
[08:09] <seb128> rainy, windy, but good mostly still ;-)
[08:09] <seb128> you?
[08:11] <didrocks> was good! temperatures are getting bearable again :)
[08:11] <Sweet5hark> seb128: j'ai empaquete un "LibreOffice vanilla" qui contient autant que possible dans un seul paquet. concu comme un base pour snappy/click-foo. avoir belle allure juqu'ici. plus de details dans notre rencontre hebdomadaire demain ...
[08:11] <Laney> was actually warm on saturday
[08:13] <seb128> Sweet5hark, super :-)
[08:13] <Sweet5hark> (if that sounds like a robot, thats because it mostly is as google translate helping me out) ;)
[08:14] <seb128> (hehe, I had a feeling some of it might be google translator indeed ;-)
[08:14] <Sweet5hark> hrhr
[08:22] <ochosi> (late) morning all
[08:22] <ochosi> Sweet5hark: kalikiana referred me to you, mind if i PM you quickly?
[08:23] <Sweet5hark> ochosi: shoot
[08:27] <seb128> hey ochosi
[09:35] <darkxst> hey Laney seb128
[09:35] <darkxst> anychance we can land the remaining core 3.16 before A2?
[09:36] <Laney> darkxst: You're not in A2
[09:36] <Laney> and what is left?
[09:36] <Laney> I know about the peripheral thing
[09:36] <darkxst> Laney, oh I thought we were
[09:37] <darkxst> yes g-s-d/g-c-c and related peripheral settings
[09:37] <Laney> can be if you want and have testers, just mail the list
[09:37] <darkxst> and g-o-a stuck in proposed
[09:38] <willcooke> Good morning from grey London
[09:38] <darkxst> Laney, I don't do the QA
[09:38] <darkxst> pretty sure we have a QA team, so I don't have to deal with these things!
[09:39] <Laney> sounds like a good way
[09:39] <Laney> if I were you I wouldn't be bothered about being in the alpha or not
[09:40] <Laney> hey willcooke
[09:40] <Laney> do you feel the excitement of being in the cultural and economic hub of the united kingdom?
[09:40] <darkxst> Laney, I'm not, but do want to get the last bits of core landed
[09:41] <Laney> darkxst: piloting this afternoon
[09:41] <darkxst> anyway dinner time
[09:41] <Laney> what else is there apart from https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-settings-daemon/+bug/1475949 ?
[09:41] <Laney> to unblock you
[09:41] <darkxst> Laney, bug 1477788
[09:42] <Laney> ok
[09:42] <Laney> will try to look at those
[09:42] <Laney> is mterry ok with the deja-dup thing?
[09:42] <darkxst> I don't know, but I am dropping it from g-c-c
[09:43] <darkxst> its a pain maintaining that
[09:43] <Laney> k
[09:43] <darkxst> so there is no point in having that 1 and only panel that uses the external panel code in g-c-c
[09:44] <darkxst> Laney, I also think compiz needs to build-dep on unity-settings-daemon-dev instead to allow for g-c-c demotion, but there is no bug for that yet
[09:45] <Laney> I don't know what it BDs on g-c-c for at all
[09:45] <Laney> would be good to write it down for me somewhere if you want me to do something
[09:51] <didrocks> good morning to willcooke's London commuter
[09:52] <didrocks> Laney: IIRC, the build-dep is for some tests using the schemas. But this is 3 years old memory, so probably wrong :)
[09:54] <didrocks> and the g-c-c part is for copying and generating shortcuts xml
[10:17] <darkxst> Laney, its mostly documented in the g-o-a bug
[10:17] <Laney> darkxst: which one is that?
[10:19] <darkxst> Laney, bug 1466290
[10:20] <Laney> it doesn't say why
[10:20] <Laney> but it does accuse seb128 of handling it, which is fine by me :)
[10:22] <darkxst> Laney, yes, seb128 said he would look into the compiz part
[10:23] <darkxst> is anyone working on gedit or nautilus btw? the former was meant to happen last cycle but didnt, that latter is a big mess with all the changes in nautilus
[10:24] <Laney> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1463662
[10:24] <Laney> gedit don't know, we needed to figure out a new toolbar but didn't
[10:25] <darkxst> Laney, the old toolbar is there for Mac builds no?
[10:27] <Laney> they have no toolbar there, just the global menubar
[10:27] <darkxst> Laney, Ive done enough menu patches now, nautilus should be easy enough if that is all that is blocking
[10:27] <darkxst> Laney, Mac OS has the old style toolbar, atleast it did last time I checked
[10:28] <darkxst> it was more a case of the Mac builds pull in lots of unrelated (for linux) code
[10:28] <Laney> https://blogs.gnome.org/jessevdk/2014/09/02/gedit-3-14-for-os-x-preview/
[10:29] <Laney> and it needed to be disentangled from macos apis for linux too
[10:30] <darkxst> maybe it was 3.12 screenshots I saw
[10:31] <darkxst> and really that is for another time, right now I want to get the last bits of core through
[10:32] <darkxst> but after that its just basically nautilus and gedit (assuming evolution/e-d-s is about ready to land?)
[10:32] <Laney> yeah today or tomorrow
[10:33] <Laney> robert_ancell might know more about nautilus if he started on it already
[10:33] <Laney> I don't know our menubar patches there very well
[10:34] <darkxst> Laney, menubar patches with gtkbuilder are easy, just pull in the old xml files and voile!
[10:35] <darkxst> though I haven't looked at the previous ubuntu patches for nautilus closely
[11:33] <seb128> darkxst, I'm going to try to have a look to that this week, it was in my next items list but I need to look at the gcc5 transition first
[13:06] <Guest79953> hi, i got some problems with my bluetooth device under ubuntu 14.04
[13:07] <Guest79953> my notebook does not recognize the bluetooth device
[13:07] <Guest79953> i would be very grateful if anybody could help me
[13:25] <dobey> Guest79953: #ubuntu is the support channel. this is a development channel :)
[13:25] <Guest79953> ohh sorry
[14:05] <Sweet5hark> someone is wondering "how did they compile LO 10 years ago, when a laptop with 4GB RAM was not so common" ...
[14:05]  * Sweet5hark has 50 years of LibreOffice experience says my CV.
[14:05] <ogra_> Sweet5hark, you should tell him about the pandaboard ;)
[14:08] <Sweet5hark> ogra_: he is trying to build LibreOffice in a docker container with 1GB RAM for unspeced reasons ... -- His gcc suiciding on boost::spirit likely has nothing to do with LibreOffice at all.
[14:08] <Sweet5hark> (w/o swap)
[14:08] <ogra_> lol
[16:21] <Laney> darkxst: I can't build g-c-c 3.16 until goa 3.16 builds
[16:28] <Laney> darkxst: and g-s-d Breaks g-c-c
[16:28] <Laney> and u-s-d needs g-s-d-schemas
[16:28] <Laney> soooooooooooooo............
[16:28] <Laney> sorry :(
[17:05] <Laney> bye!
[17:15] <seb128> Laney, have fun!
[17:28] <seb128> Laney, is bug #1351890 something you are still having on your list (looks like you sponsored changed and said you would deal with the updated version if somebody added one, which they did)
[21:59] <Noskcaj> debian have switched libgtop2 to multiarch, should we follow suite?
[23:02] <darkxst> Laney, g-s-d-schemas would be staying in main
[23:26] <darkxst> Laney, but yeh need the g-o-a/webkit2gtk thing solved first
