phillwwxl: ping...20:31
wxlwhat up phillw ?20:43
wxlnothing obvious20:45
wxlcat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | pastebinit20:45
phillwwxl: could you ask simon to not wander in and mark bugs "Invalid" when they are active bugs?20:46
tsimonq2*sigh* when?20:46
wxloops20:46
tsimonq2phillw: and which one?20:46
phillwwxl:  just as a request when I make the boss attention to one of them to look at in time for RC...20:47
wxlphillw: so this has no basis in any actual occurance?20:47
phillwwxl: i have reverted the bug status.... so "so this has no basis in any actual occurance?" has basis.20:49
tsimonq2wxl: he's talking about bug 152262520:49
ubot93bug 1522625 in One Hundred Papercuts "changing multiple desktop names only results in the first being changed. " [Medium,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/152262520:49
tsimonq2and I have a reason20:49
wxlthen you'll need to be specific in the future, phillw20:49
tsimonq2it's an LXPanel problem20:49
tsimonq2NOT obconf20:49
tsimonq2it's set properly in obconf, LXPanel just fails to update20:49
tsimonq2so I'd suggest removing it from obconf altogether20:50
phillwtsimonq2: do not mark a bug that is there as invalid, mark it as duplicate to a master bug.20:50
wxlas i see he did nothing wrong, phillw20:50
wxlthere's two packages the bug points out20:50
tsimonq2 /o\ there is no "master bug," it's my assessment of the problem20:50
wxlhe invalidated one of them20:50
tsimonq2wxl: and I added LXPanel when I did that, FWIW20:50
wxlit seems to me his actions were quite clear20:51
wxli'm not sure why you're confused phillw20:51
phillwwxl: and he can fix each one?.... I'll leave alone. I asked our head of dev to look at the issue... He will sort it out, not one of us.20:51
tsimonq2phillw: you want to test and confirm yo uare right? go ahead, give us reasonable proof I'm wrong, but when I tested, I changed in obconf, closed obconf, hovered in LXPanel, opened obconf, and it was set fin in obconf, the screenshot I attached showed just that20:52
wxlphillw: you are clearly not getting it. there's only one package that it's affecting.20:52
tsimonq2^20:52
phillwso, bugs that are in our release notes that are lubuntu are to be forwarded to Julien.20:52
wxlphillw: what does that have to do with anything again?20:52
phillwwxl: how does selecting language have anything to do with installer etc? ... yet it was. Read what Julien asked for on bugs.... HE decides what they affect and how. He is the guy who will arrange a fix. Or, did you delete that from the testing page?20:54
wxlphillw: i've done the same actions before when troubleshooting, as have hoardes of others. this is not bad behavior.20:55
tsimonq2phillw: so this is a dictatorship?20:55
phillwgoing from B2 to RC, he needs a clean list of bugs to clean out.20:55
phillwtsimonq2: it is a technocracy, Julien is the boss.20:55
phillwwe have 4 to send to him, the others are not lubuntu specific20:56
wxlphillw: yes, and with it being pointed against the wrong package, it's not a "clean list of bugs"20:56
wxli would totally do the exact same thing were i have went through that process20:56
wxlhe did nothing which makes it NOT a lubuntu bug20:57
wxlit still is20:57
phillwwxl: okies, as you wish....20:57
wxlphillw: as i wish? this is not my "opinion"20:58
wxllxpanel is a lubuntu package20:58
wxlhe made sure it was filed against lxpanel20:58
wxlhe removed it being filed against obconf because he had done the steps to confirm it doesn't apply to it20:58
wxlso, after all that, is it a lubuntu bug or not?20:58
phillwI really cannot be bothered to argue. so, revert it.20:58
wxlmore importantly, is it an active lubuntu bug or not?20:58
wxlif you can't be bothered to argue, don't bring this up20:59
tsimonq2phillw: I'd be curious to see if you can confirm this yourself as well...20:59
phillwwxl: does it say affects me, or does it not? ......20:59
tsimonq2and more importantly, CoC says meritocracy, if I have a reasonable suspicion to do something, I am warranted to20:59
wxlphillw: since it's still an active bug, it does20:59
phillwso, why ask me?21:00
wxlphillw: dude, YOU'RE the one doing the asking.21:00
phillwwxl: i will ask Julien to confirm his views on bugs that he is involved in. They were quite explicit.21:01
tsimonq2phillw: I've already asked him myself21:01
tsimonq2no answer yet21:01
wxlphillw: tell me, exactly, what his explicit instructions were21:01
wxlwas it "no one is to touch my bugs?"21:01
phillwwxl: indeed it was.21:02
wxlphillw: then i will no longer encourage any one to do triage21:02
wxlphillw: nor will i21:02
tsimonq2but that's just not how it works, hold on here21:02
wxlphillw: and i will accost everyone that does it21:02
wxlphillw: does that sound good to you?21:03
phillwas you wish, so it will follow... I actually suggested that we ask him for clarification.21:03
wxlphillw: isn't that consistent with what you're asking?21:04
wxlphillw: if you're saying no one's to touch bugs, no one's to touch them, right?21:04
phillwnot between b2 and RC is what I read his instructions as... Hence my saying he clarify the situation.21:05
wxlphillw: please email the results to the lubuntu-devel list and make sure it's listed on the testing wiki page21:06
phillwwxl: "Within bugs related to Lubuntu, you will see bugs raised by, or allocated to Julien Lavergne. Please feel free to add to the comments but do NOT alter the status of these bugs as they are being dealt with by our head of development in readiness for the fix being released.21:07
phillw"21:07
phillwwhich bit did you miss?21:07
wxlphillw: the part that follows the clarification you seek21:07
phillwindeed. until then... follow his last orders.21:08
wxlphillw: it's not clear. i'm not sure i could follow it.21:08
belkinsaI was called here.21:09
tsimonq2phillw: where is this posted?21:09
wxlphillw: if the status is Confirmed in obconf and it's changed to Confirmed in lxpanel, is the status actually changed?21:09
phillwtsimonq2: in the wiki for testing.... https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lubuntu/Testing#Bugs21:10
phillwwxl: I do not know, all I know is that we asked not to change bug statuses once passed to Julien.21:11
tsimonq2phillw: I'm checking the revision history21:11
wxlphillw: but Confirmed -> Confirmed doesn't seem like a change in bug status21:11
phillwwxl: you are most likely correct, but I read it as "leave the bug alone"...21:12
wxlphillw: thus why you need clarity21:12
phillwindeed21:12
wxlphillw: until then, i wouldn't suggest denouncing people because of their best intentions and hard work21:12
phillwI have not denounced, i have asked that bugs are not touched once passed to Julien.21:13
tsimonq2phillw: NOWHERE has Julien himself made that notice. It's there, but gilir has not added that himself.21:13
phillwthere are many bugs out there :P21:13
wxlphillw: in fact, your actions on the bug report appear to completely ignore the work that simon had done without any mention of why21:14
wxlphillw: if you have a perfectly reasonable justification, kyou should state it21:14
wxlyou didn't ask a darn thing on the bug report21:14
wxlit would be similar to you creating a wiki page21:14
wxland then me deleting it21:14
wxlwith no explanation21:14
wxlthis to me has a rather demeaning tone:21:15
wxlhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingTouchpadDetection21:15
wxloops21:15
wxl1346 < phillw:#lubuntu-devel> wxl: could you ask simon to not wander in and mark bugs "Invalid" when they are active bugs?21:15
wxlsuggesting he "wanders in" seems to imply he's acting haphazardly21:15
wxlwhen in fact he was rather thoughtful about it and made his reasoning quite clear21:16
wxlin public21:16
wxlto resolve it, you don't even approach him, but approach me21:16
phillwI'm not going to argue.... I get told off for it.... tsimonq2 go revert the bug.... and i will seek clearance from Julien as to what he means about his request to leave bugs for him alone.21:16
tsimonq2I'm asking him as well21:16
wxlphillw: maybe if you stopped trying to argue at all rather than keeping your arguments to yourself, that would be a great start21:17
phillwhe's afk.21:17
wxlmeanwhile, i would suggest we edit the language of the wiki page to act with caution21:19
wxlcould you make that edit, tsimonq2 ?21:19
phillwwxl: i asked in private to you about my interperpration of Julien's request.... you made it all public and I saw you call in a CC member to see if if could be found guilty of breaking my oath to SABDFL.21:19
tsimonq2that was me, I was feeling threatened, so I would advise that you tone it down a bit21:20
wxlphillw: you brought it up on a public channel. and you didn't ask about your interpretation. you demanded your interpretation be enforced21:20
tsimonq2^^^21:20
phillwi stand corrrected.21:21
phillwmy apologies.21:21
wxlthanks21:21
wxlplease try resolving your concerns in a more *productive* and less insulting manner in the future. it would make a big difference21:21
wxlphillw: one other thing. this bug is not "raised by, or allocated to Julien Lavergne"21:22
wxlphillw: which is to say it doesn't even apply21:23
wxland this whole thing was all for naught21:23
phillwwxl: well, i would have PM'd you, but i have a direct instruction from you to not PM you... So, public channel is my only way to get live chat. If you'd like to remove that prohibition for the future, none of this would have occurred ... But, meh....21:23
wxlphillw: this is not a private matter. it's a public matter. it should have been approached in the bug report, if at all21:24
wxlphillw: but as above, this is not even applicable to what you're using as your justification21:24
phillwx21:25
tsimonq2and I would have liked to know about it in the bug report if it was a problem, NOT through someone else, this is trivial and I could have cleared things up EASILY21:25
tsimonq2just saying21:25
wxli completely agree21:25
phillwtsimonq2: no complaints from me.... but, as not allowed to PM wxl we had a row on public channel that could have been resolved out of view and without you feeling threatened.21:26
wxlphillw: or you could have brought it up in the bug report21:27
wxlphillw: and used less threatening language21:27
ianorlinhmm I wonder if some guvcview bugs need triaging and that cannot really be done in a virtual machine21:27
tsimonq2ianorlin: go right ahead :)21:28
tsimonq2triage away21:28
tsimonq2wxl: bug 1522625 - please change bug importance on obconf to Undecided or something that reflects the status21:31
ubot93bug 1522625 in One Hundred Papercuts "changing multiple desktop names only results in the first being changed. " [Medium,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/152262521:31
tsimonq2I still have to get Bug Control :)21:31
phillwwxl: I use direct words, when annoyed over things.... To say my thoughts on a public channel to you is my only way to contact you. You have a cc of the email I sent to Julien.... you *could* have copied it lubuntu-devel list... It was an email from me to Julien to ask him to chase up 4 bugs. :D :D we approach RC and these, as far as I can see are the 4 bugs lubuntu needs to resolve :)21:31
ianorlinis the boot to black wallpaper one of them?21:34
phillwianorlin: indeed21:34
wxlphillw: then maybe you should get less annoyed at the people that are trying to help contribute to the same project you're trying to help contribute to21:34
tsimonq2^ I fully agree21:34
phillwwxl: if i were allowed to talk to you, things would be easier.... But, heay,, that's life :)21:35
wxlphillw: that's the wrong channel for this discussion21:36
wxlphillw: this is not a personal discussion21:37
phillwas you wish.21:38
wxlphillw: isn't not a wish, it's the facts21:38
phillwwxl: the facts are if me and you had started this as PM, it would have been resolved between us amicably and your padawan would not have felt so threatened as to ask a CC member to log on.21:41
wxlphillw: i'm not sure that's true. *I* don't feel good about the way you brought this up, whether or not it was in a PM or not.21:42
phillwbut, that's just my opinion.... I always yield to your judgement.21:42
wxlphillw: and besides, this is not a private matter. this involves a public bug report. you're basing your feelings on a public wiki page. why does this need to be private?21:42
wxlprivacy is great for private things21:42
wxland terrible for public things21:42
ianorlinalso isn't tihs a really small bug to be having this big a fight over21:44
phillwso, you not in nipping something in the bud... something that Donald Trump's father should have done...... but that is another story :) ...21:44
tsimonq2come on, let's nto bring up Mr. Trump :P21:44
tsimonq2*not21:44
wxlphillw: i'm not even sure what you're trying to say.21:44
tsimonq2^21:45
ianorlinI am starting to question if that should be medium and not low and I was the one that orginally reported the bug21:45
tsimonq2+1 ianorlin21:45
tsimonq2let's be positive21:45
phillwwxl: we could have had a quiet chat and none of the last hour, or so.... would have occured.21:45
tsimonq2wxl: what do you think?21:45
wxlphillw: you're still not getting it.21:45
wxltsimonq2: i'd probably call it low.21:46
tsimonq2alright :)21:46
