lordievaderGood morning.07:30
acheronukMorning :D07:50
yofelclivejo, acheronuk: both patching qtchoose or backporting qt4-x11 should do the job, as the change is mostly just internal. So either way is fine08:00
acheronukyofel: well, due to a slight miscommunication yesterday, MirĪ½'s qt4-x11 already got copied across, and looks like LP built all of plasma ok.08:02
acheronukyet to test it in any Xenial VM or machine yet though...08:03
yofelqt4 would only affect the couply remaining qt4 apps, so there's rather little regression potential here08:03
yofel*couple08:04
acheronukclivejo: I would guess also need to re-upload pyqt5 5.5.1 for a no change rebuild against Qt 5.6 as before08:16
acheronukas was done here https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ppa/+archive/ubuntu/staging-plasma/+packages?field.name_filter=pyqt5&field.status_filter=&field.series_filter=xenial08:17
=== mwhudson_ is now known as mwhudson
acheronukclivejo et al: plasma staging upgrade on xenial looks about as expected without pyqt5 rebuild http://paste.ubuntu.com/22797149/ 12:26
acheronukplasma-discover : Depends: packagekit (>= 1.0)12:34
acheronuknot going to be satisfiable in xenial ^^^^ so not sure on that one12:35
clivejoI uploaded pyqt5, has it not publsihed yet?12:41
acheronukclivejo: I hadn't looked. presumably not12:41
* clivejo rolls eyes12:42
acheronukummm. it needs a no change rebuild of pyqt5 5.5, not a v5.612:43
acheronukwe had that before I think, as 5.6 needs too new python-sip12:44
clivejoah yes12:48
clivejoand it wouldnt let me upload a lower version last time too12:48
* clivejo hates LP12:48
BluesKajHiyas all12:49
clivejoTimeout error12:50
clivejoSorry, something just went wrong in Launchpad.12:50
* clivejo wonders if we should move it to landing12:53
clivejoand upload pyqt 5.5 to there12:53
IrcsomeBot<Sick_Rimmit> 0/ Hello12:54
clivejoHi Rick12:54
clivejothats a very big head you got today12:54
IrcsomeBot<Sick_Rimmit> O.o12:54
clivejoo/ compared to 0/12:55
IrcsomeBot<Sick_Rimmit> Ah I see12:55
IrcsomeBot<Sick_Rimmit> It's not that my head is big, its that my arms are short12:55
clivejoLOL12:56
acheronukclivejo: it did let me upload it last time. just needed to give it long enough for the launchpad janitor to remove properly the old higher version13:05
acheronukprobably need to wait ~ 1hr after deletion13:06
yofelthe question about discover is really "do we want to be compatible with ubuntu desktop" - which is not something I personally care about at least13:21
yofelbecause if we don't care about that, we could try backporting packagekit13:21
yofelotherwise it means xenial is stuck with discover 5.613:22
BluesKajmuon still works ..prefer that anyway, it shows all packages in a search whereas discover omits quite a few ..that's been my experience13:24
acheronukI'm not keen on software centres in the first place, and to be blunt discover is damn poor effort on one compared to the already not very great competition.13:32

clivejowhen did the Kubuntu installer get so greedy?16:20
tsimonq2when it started providing a graphical way to install things16:20
* tsimonq2 runs16:20
clivejowont run in 1GB of RAM16:22
acheronukwow. for a fairly small source package, pyqt5 takes ages to build!16:22
clivejoLP on go slow mode?16:23
acheronukclivejo: nope. just looked at the previous builds of it, and seems they took 30-40 mins as well16:24
clivejoha, you are right16:25
clivejo8GB Hard disk isnt big enough for it!16:25
geniiThat means I won't be able to install it anymore on my Acer D26016:25
genii( if it needs more than a gig )16:25
clivejogave it 15Gb of HDD and installing now16:26
clivejoThats mental16:26
acheronukThe virtualbox defaults are useless for kubuntu it seems16:29
tsimonq2...which is why I use virt-manager :P16:30
clivejoyou do everything different!16:30
clivejoI really dont have the resources to do testing on Xenial :(16:31
tsimonq2clivejo: because at one point I did use graphical software updaters/installers, VirtualBox, and even pbuilder, but the solutions I use now work a LOT better and are 10x more flexible16:31
clivejotsimonq2: what are you doing later?16:32
clivejolike 2hours?16:33
tsimonq2well I was just about to go make myself some food, so unless dad or dad's GF wants to do something, I'll be around to do whatever16:33
clivejoIm hoping to get together with acheronuk and backport apps16:34
clivejofancy sitting in?16:35
tsimonq2oh shoot, I have to return a book to my former school (I'm going from middle to high school and it's an $80 fee if I don't return it by Aug 22)16:35
tsimonq2but it's not too far16:35
clivejowe'll probably go on BBB as its lot easier to communicate on there16:36
clivejoeven though it does feel a bit odd talking to myself16:36
IrcsomeBot<tsimonq2> Router reboot :(16:36
IrcsomeBot<tsimonq2> But yeah I'm in16:36
clivejoand reading the replies on a terminal16:37
IrcsomeBot<tsimonq2> I hate this route16:37
acheronukok. back later16:40

IrcsomeBot<tsimonq2> I don't think this is mini PCIe... :/16:57
mparilloclivejo: The YY installer quits / crashes and burns if you only have 1GB of RAM? I used to get warnings, but now it cannot run?16:59
blazeoh my17:06
clivejomparillo: I dont know, Im trying to install 16.04.117:51
* clivejo waits while plasma 5.7.2 downloads18:23
clivejoexit18:23
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> I think simon was talking about it18:27
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> Yofel knows the most I think clivejo18:28
yofelabout what?18:28
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> The installer slideshow18:28
clivejoslideshow in the installer18:28
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> I know its Python issue18:29
mparilloThanks clivejo. I do know I did install 16.04 on a 1GB netbook, but I got plenty of warnings about my filesystem (stored in RAM) being almost full. Maybe 16.04.1 just went over the edge.18:29
yofelpyqt4 in yakkety has no qtwebkit, so our slideshow cannot work. Needs to be replaced by something that doesn't need webkit, or the UI ported to qt518:29
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> We could use what soee was working on for after it is installed18:30
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> Or look at what the other flavors are doing18:30
yofelyes, but we still need to show *something* while it's installing - even if just a static image18:30
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> Could we load qml in it?18:31
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> You could make a slideshow with it18:31
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> Someone did it at akadamy18:31
yofelmaybe, this is qt4 remember, so I think you'll just have qtquick 1.018:31
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> Its in qt4?18:32
yofelit's pyqt418:32
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> Mm18:32
yofelthat's the whole problem :P18:32
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> We need to do something quick as the freeze is coming fast18:32
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> Then fix next release18:33
clivejook well, I just upgrades a clean 16.04.1 install to Plasma 5.7.2 with no issues18:33
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> Where is our installer? In ubiquity?18:34
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> \o/ clivejo18:34
clivejoI think this could go to landing for testing18:34
acheronukclivejo: qtcurve needs a rebuild (kde-style-qtcurve-qt5 : Depends: qtbase-abi-5-5-1)18:35
yofelubiquity is the installer, the kde UI is inside the same repository. If we split that out I might even take a look at it18:35
yofelif you put it in landing I'll try to get the transition list sorted for qt and plasma18:35
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> Split from ubiquity?18:36
yofelyes, because I refuse to do large changes to code under canonical CLA18:36
clivejoqtcurve mustnt be installed by default?18:36
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> Since you lose access to it or something?18:36
clivejoacheronuk: might uploading that to staging-plasma PPA?18:37
acheronukclivejo: kde-spectacle : Depends: libkf5screen6 (>= 5.1.1) but it is not going to be installed. as we now have libkf5screen718:37
acheronukbut new apps will sort that?18:37
clivejoyes18:37
clivejothats why I want to get apps done tonight18:37
yofelsince they can theoretically make it proprietary without my consent. If they want me to attribute code under such conditions they'll have to pay me18:37
acheronukclivejo: we uploaded a qtcurve rebuild on the last backport try I think? so yes, can repeat18:38
clivejoacheronuk: thanks18:38
acheronukditto obviously with the language packs18:39
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> yofel I'll look at it when I get home18:40
clivejoacheronuk tsimonq2: want to make a start on apps?18:40
acheronukclivejo: whenever you like18:40
tsimonq2clivejo: pizza is almost done, gimme 10 mins18:40
clivejoacheronuk: Ill hop on BBB and we can get setup?18:41
* yofel off for the evening18:41
acheronukclivejo: I'm there18:42
clivejosomeones keen :)18:42
acheronukwant to see if the 'browser-plugin-freshplayer-pepperflash' for Firefox does anything to help with the sound issues18:43
BluesKaj-piok some websites are suggeesting to download the latest adobe flash 18:45
BluesKaj-piyet those sites are usually the most guilty of not upgrading their flash versions18:47
blaze wasn't flash development dropped by adobe? 19:01
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> It was19:01
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> Still being used19:01
* soee wrr...19:38

IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> Webcam?19:40
clivejoahoneybun we on BBB19:56
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> Oh ok19:56
geniiI'm finding it hard to mentally make BBB mean Big Blue Button when all the rest of my life before that it always meant Better Business Bureau 19:59

* acheronuk now has git aware prompt :D22:27
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> That's pretty cool22:27
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> I'll get it when I get home22:27
clivejoBBB hangout sessions are cool, get to learn how other people do stuff!22:35
acheronukThat was very good. :D22:36
clivejoI was getting tired that last hour22:36
acheronukI also now know that the audio in BBB with that pepper flash plugin wrapper works ok, so can screen share and hear in FF22:37
acheronukno messing about with 2 browsers22:37
clivejomust look into downloading the lastest FF22:38
acheronukI'm tired now, so won't be on here much longer tonight22:38
clivejoI was hoping those would have published before I came back22:39
acheronukif just ECM would, could push some things on22:39
clivejostill, I think we covered a good amount this evening22:41
clivejowell worth it22:42
acheronukthat git prompt is great. so many times I've stopped before committing/pushing and wondered if I really did all that in the right branch22:42
acheronukbut now a glance tells me22:42
acheronukyes, and it helps going through it with other people like that.22:43
clivejooooooo22:46
clivejojust installed it#22:46
clivejothats pretty22:46
acheronukthere are some seriously styled prompt scripts (think ovidiu has one?), but that git one is practical22:48
IrcsomeBot<ahoneybun> He has the fish one or something22:49
acheronukahoneybun: yeah, I saw that on a screen share at some point23:05
tsimonq2:D acheronuk 23:10
tsimonq2clivejo, acheronuk: I swear, after installing it, I would go nuts without it23:11
tsimonq2yofel: since Wily is EOL, I would suggest removing the Wily packages from ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports to save space23:17
