[04:44] Hey all [04:45] I was reading https://notes.kde.org/p/kubuntu-packaging and the very first 'need' is git commit access to debian git [04:46] I haven't yet found the information on how one gets to that point, and if it means one has to be a debian developer already or not [05:47] kkinetix: until you earn that right, you have other people do the commits [05:47] folks: http://blog.linuxmint.com/?p=2994 [05:53] valorie: I see... is that earnable through kubuntu tasks/packaging, or does one have to get involved with Debian directly? [06:00] start with Kubuntu - we cooperate directly with Debian [06:01] for instance, we've got a bug-fixing sprint coming up in Munich soon, with us and Debian both [06:04] we'd like to work even more closely with them [06:04] Very cool [06:07] I think so [06:07] a work in progress though [06:08] I'll see about ploughing through the documentation [06:08] have you joined Kub-devel list? [06:08] I have! [06:09] great, be sure to introduce yourself [06:09] most of the devels are in europe [06:09] * valorie lives near Seattle Washington USA [06:12] ok, I'll look to do so in the near future... will go through some archives as well [06:12] excellent [06:13] this chan is where the action is [06:13] I'm near the west coast myself, I'm in Kamloops, BC [06:13] nice! [06:13] you're just a few hours from me then [06:14] Yes, I've enjoyed the few visits to Seattle that I've had - though I haven't been as a tourist yet, sadly. [06:14] I've not actually been up to Kamloops, but I have cousins and so forth all over Canada, including BC [06:15] my mother actually grew up in Alberta, although she was born in Iowa [06:15] my father's dad was born in Ontario, and came to Seattle after WWI [06:20] You certainly have some Canadian ties, eh? [06:21] very much so [06:21] half of my mother's sibs stayed in Canada [06:21] and all the rest of my Cowans [06:22] mostly still in Ontario [06:22] Heh, right on [06:25] what do you do up there in Kamloops? [06:25] So do you do development as well? [06:26] I do community, and docs [06:26] and I'm on the Council [06:26] I'm mostly a network guy... professionally I've been doing network bits for 15 years or so. But I've been a Linux guy and sysadmin for longer. [06:26] and I do student programs and some other stuff upstream in KDE [06:28] Sounds like all of that could keep you buys [06:28] busy, too [06:28] yup [06:29] fun group [06:29] we do our annual meeting at KDE's annual meeting, Akademy [06:32] we like meeting face to face, so since Ubuntu stopped doing "real" meetings, we moved to Akademy [06:35] That sounds fun [06:35] it is! [06:35] this year we'll meet in Berlin in September [06:38] Ubuntu doesn't do a get-together any more though eh? [06:39] Canonical gets their staff together, but no longer organize face-to-face for Ubuntu [06:39] now it's all on hangouts [06:39] we participate in those if we have anything to discuss [06:39] but really, nothing beats face to face [06:40] Yeah, no doubt [06:41] fortunately, the ubuntu community has a fund that helps many of us to attend [06:43] I can see that being massively helpful for sure [11:09] does anyone know if there is something I need to do to get my kubuntu email to work? [12:01] Hey folks [12:01] hi BluesKaj [12:02] Hi clivejo [16:26] clivejo: it is a mail forwarder, it will forward to your main email. [16:26] sgclark: it wont work [16:27] a few more details might be helpful lol [16:27] * sgclark get first cup of coffee [16:28] Mail is getting bounced "Recipient address rejected: User unknown in virtual alias table" [16:30] uh that is a server problem. [16:31] supposed to update every 48hours [16:33] ok, but out of scope of something I can fix :) need to try #canonical-sysadmin [18:41] [19:40:12] Phil, is there any way to merge a local folder into a git archive [18:41] [19:40:47] I have some packaging for libkolab and want to merge it into the kubuntu_unstable branch on Debian [18:42] that was a secret! [18:43] oops [18:43] well, there is no way to "merge" something [18:43] what you can do is copy your files into the git archive, git add everything, then look at the diff if the changes look right [18:43] could I not git init the local folder and add as a remot? [18:44] how would I merge the changelog, thats the main issu [18:44] issue [18:44] well, yes. But if you don't share any history, then all you'll get is merge conflicts in everything [18:44] some of the changelog is shared [18:45] ubuntu-dev-tools has merge-changelog or so for semi-automatic changelog merging [20:05] * soee now knows a secret ... what to do, what to do ... === tazz_ is now known as tazz [20:57] soee: ? === claydoh_ is now known as claydoh [21:06] very quiet in here today! === tazz_ is now known as tazz [21:12] ovidiu-florin: ping
