popeyjohn-mcaleely, ^13:06
ogra_davmor2, jibel,  should calendar syncing work in rc-proposed atm  ?13:15
ogra_(it doesnt since the backend changed for me)13:15
ogra_i even deleted and re-added my ogra@canonical.com account13:15
jibelogra_, I have no idea, I saw an update today but didn't install it yet.13:17
jibelpopey, ^ do you know?13:17
ogra_jibel, well, it stopped for me a week ago or so13:17
popeyit should, yes.13:17
ogra_(i think the backend was replaced)13:17
popeyno13:17
popeyit wasnt13:17
ogra_oh13:17
popeyI tested syncing on my device before uploading to the store13:18
ogra_well, i cant syncv anymore *sniff*13:18
popeyon rc proposed13:18
popeybug reports welcome13:18
popeywith logs from .cache/upstart as usual13:18
ogra_it did start before todays update though ...13:18
ogra_definitely not related to the app13:18
popeywell, either way, if syncing is broken then it's either the app or sync-monitor or eds, and we need a bug13:18

popey:D14:37
popeyask DanChapman, I'm sure he'd appreciate additional testing!14:37
robin-heroDanChapman: Hey Dan! I'd like to try out the latest dev version of Dekko. Could you give me a .click package? :)14:41
DanChapmanrobin-hero: Hey! errrm yeah. I don't have an up to date click handy right now. Let me just find a link to one I shared yesterday14:43
robin-heroCool, thanks :)14:44
DanChapmanrobin-hero: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwhxYaiA7z1qOWh4M1dtei0wY0U/view?usp=sharing Be warned it isn't fully functional message reply's, forwards & attachments and some other little bits aren't working in that click.14:45
robin-heroThanks, I'll test it on my test device, so it's not a problem. When do you release a new stable version? :)14:46
DanChapmanrobin-hero: well... as long as I have no more big surprises should be sunday or monday.14:49
robin-heroAwesome \o/ :)14:50
robin-heroDanChapman: Is it normal to everything is English? Because I use my phone with other language settings.14:54
DanChapmanrobin-hero: yes that's normal. There is no translations in that build.14:55
robin-heroThanks :)14:56
robin-heroBut I see a lot of new strings, which are not inclueded in the translation template on Launchpad, please updload a new version before release it :)14:56

stakewinner00It only happens to me?15:07
mcphailstakewinner00: does it still do that? Think it was fixed in OTA715:08
jibelogra_, calendar sync works fine on latest rc-proposed + latest calendar15:08
stakewinner00yes, i'm in ota-8 now. Today I found that the bookmarks section don't work.15:09
=== Guest87033 is now known as balloons_
mcphailstakewinner00: Not sure, then. Works for me now, and was supposed to be fixed from OTA7 onwards. When you swipe right, if you do a very long swipe (at least to middle of screen) then click the trash icon does it work?15:09
ogra_jibel, with your canonical account ?15:10
jibelstakewinner00, it's a known bug.15:10

jibelmcphail, still in progress apparently.15:11
stakewinner00well, you can go to the webpage and click the "star" and the bookmark gets removed15:11
ogra_oSoMoN, is that a known issue ? (no handles in some tabs in the browser)15:12
mcphailjibel: hmm. Think that may be a duplicate...15:13
ogra_they seem to get one after i opened the page once ...15:13
jibelmcphail, if you know a duplicate feel free to mark it so. The bug I mentioned has a branch attacheed and should land soon and it's clearly not fixed in rc-proposed15:15
mcphailjibel: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-ui-toolkit/+bug/1501668 looks as if I closed it (and perhaps closed it too early?)15:15

oSoMoNogra_, nope, not a known issue, mind filing a bug with a screenshot?15:15
jibelmcphail, it looks very similar indeed, oSoMoN can tell if it is the same15:16
jibeloSoMoN, do you plan to land the fix for 1515631 for ota9?15:17
mcphailjibel: and I wondered if my bug was a duplicate of https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-ui-toolkit/+bug/1486008 which is fix released15:17

stakewinner00also, today i was listen music and unpluged the headphones, the music stopped as expected, and the battery life got drastically reduced. I supose this is some bug in the music app...15:18
stakewinner00I'll search on the buglist and report it if necessary.15:19

davmor2stakewinner00: for the delete in browser it is a known issue being fixed currently15:22
ahayzengreyback, is there any chance, when you have a moment, you could check bug 1518764, it seems like the fix for bug 1423787 isn't working anymore as I've noticed the battery life being poor on my mako as well ?15:22

Guest552342i don't even15:24
greybackahayzen: I'll give it a look, but music app is exempt from lifecycle management, so I've to trust that it behaves itself15:24
ahayzengreyback, i thought it was changed so that it was only exempt when audio was playing ?15:24
ahayzenas per that second bug15:24
ahayzenit seems that power is still used even when music isn't playing15:26
* ahayzen hopes we can have a normal lifecycle soon with the work going on upstream to us :-)15:26
greybackahayzen: which says to me music app, or something it uses is misbehaving. By misbehaving, I mean drawing frame unnecessarily, or not releasing its wakelock when it should15:27
ahayzenyeah, maybe all the changes in media-hub have caused it15:27
greybacknot improbable15:27
davmor2ahayzen: just blame jhodapp and media-hub it's fine he has big shoulders ;)15:27
ahayzendavmor2, :-)15:27
jhodapphaha15:28
jhodappdo not blame, it's a bad habit15:28
jhodapp:)15:28
ahayzenonly bzr blame ?15:28
jhodappno blame15:28
ahayzen;-)15:29
jhodappgreyback, ahayzen: did using music-app start chewing up more battery life recently?15:29
ahayzenjhodapp, OTA815:29
jhodappok15:30
ahayzenonce jhodapp fixes bug 1518160 music can have a normal app lifecycle anyway :-) hehe15:30
ubot5bug 1518160 in qtubuntu-media (Ubuntu RTM) "Once the music-app has a normal app lifecycle there needs to be a mechanism to sync the info lost during the suspend period" [Medium,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/151816015:30
jhodappyes indeed15:30
ahayzenjhodapp, but i wonder if the changes in mh are cause it to not release the wakelock as it thinks the audio is still playing or something15:31
stakewinner00Why the music app are not programmed in C++/qt?15:31
ogra_oSoMoN, bug 152062415:31
ubot5bug 1520624 in webbrowser-app (Ubuntu) "after update some tabs are missing their handles and cloes buttons" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/152062415:31
ahayzenstakewinner00, there is no real reason to at the moment, we can do everything in QML15:31
davmor2ahayzen: see told you it was jhodapp fault, but no, he plays the no blame card, like I care, I'm QA, blame is what I do, after I break something ;)15:32
stakewinner00ahayzen, with qml/js it seems to be slow when loading list of songs for example.15:32
ahayzenstakewinner00, that's all done in the SDK c++ models though, if you mean the Songs tab ?15:32
ahayzenonly the playlist songs view is loaded via JS15:33
ahayzenall the others we just pass the mediascanner2 model directly to the view15:33
jhodappahayzen, you can test that with the powerd-cli --list if you suspect that something might still have a system wakelock15:33
jhodappdavmor2, technically you owe me a beer since silo 9 landed without a single fix needed ;)15:33
stakewinner00I mean, I have a playlist with 600 songs, when i open it, I have to wait arround 4-5 seconds to load it15:33
ahayzenjhodapp, ok i'll look when i'm back home, at campus at the moment :-)15:33
ahayzenstakewinner00, yup agreed15:34
* ahayzen wanted to use U1DB for that15:34
ahayzenbut hopefully the media-hub save/load can do that instead when they are implemented/fixed15:34
davmor2jhodapp: Actually the silo got blocked even though it was all ahayzen fault :P  But to be fair we should all have a drink at some point anyhow :)15:35
jhodappdavmor2, cheers to that! :)15:35
ahayzendavmor2, i did say music was still WIP though :-P15:35
oSoMoNogra_, thanks15:35
stakewinner00it's like atom vs sublime text, you have to take a coffee waiting to load it xD15:36
davmor2ahayzen: Indeed and it served the purpose it's just hard for an outsider to strip the two parts away from each other :)15:36
jhodappstakewinner00, parts of that should be faster with the new music-app coming out with OTA915:37
jhodappas it'll be using the new media-hub background playlist15:37
ahayzenjhodapp, not the playlists list15:37
jhodappahayzen, right, that's why I said *parts* :)15:37
ahayzenjhodapp, that's all JS+localstorage horribleness15:37
jhodappahayzen, speaking of which, let me make sure load/save are on our team's backlog15:38
ahayzenjhodapp, bug 151022515:38

ahayzenjhodapp, coolio, gtg and print stuff brb later o/15:40
stakewinner00i think that the 80% of the time i'm with the phone, i'm listening music. I'll be grateful of all improvements and fixes related to music app. :D15:40

_Kai__dobey: Simplified interface would probably be a lot easier to implement.  Basically had the idea since I setup an Android for my farther with a simplified launcher (6 big buttons and a 'notification centre' plus 'top contacts') which helped him use the smartphone :-D22:16

_Kai__that's the one.   Lovely big easy to use buttons :) 100,000 - 500,000 installs too for this launcher so it is a feature that is not as niche as you'd think22:18
