IrcsomeBot* tsimonq2 yawns and shoots spitballs at wxl and clivejo00:44
IrcsomeBot<tsimonq2> :P lol00:44
valorieewww00:44
* valorie readies the dunce hat00:45
valorieno spitballs in the channel!00:45
* clivejo taps his watch and looks at tsimonq200:46
IrcsomeBot<tsimonq2> Am I late or something? :P00:48
clivejokdevelop is late00:50
IrcsomeBot<tsimonq2> OMG :P00:57
clivejodont OMG me01:02
wxlwant me to fix it instead? :)01:22
IrcsomeBot<tsimonq2> Give it a try01:23
wxlit seems to me kci isn't really working as aforementioned01:27
wxlthat said, what's the issue?01:27
clivejoI wanted tsimonq2 to prepare 5.0.3 for release01:29
clivejolike here - https://launchpad.net/~kdevelop/+archive/ubuntu/release/01:30
clivejohttps://www.kdevelop.org/news/kdevelop-503-released01:31
wxli can give that a go01:32
clivejoshouldnt be a huge task, just use the existing packaging and fix it up01:32
wxlcouple unrelated questions:01:32
clivejojust a number of dependencies01:33
wxl 1. am i seeing correctly kci is NOT all back to normal?01:33
clivejowxl: what are you seeing?01:33
wxl 2. it seems the way kde does things, translations never come until release time. that said, mauybe we shouldn't have a kexi-l10n package? no one else seems to do things this way..01:34
wxlclivejo: i said it up there a bit. let me show you again01:34
wxlclivejo: http://kubuntu.dh.bytemark.co.uk/job/zesty_unstable_kexi/scmPollLog/01:34
wxl^^^ failing to git poll because it can't find git01:34
clivejowell thats been failing from the 8th and we only switched today01:35
clivejoso very unlikely to be the new server at fault01:36
wxlhm k01:36
wxlalthough01:36
wxlwhen i pushed to kexi last, it built01:36
wxlbut not this most recent one01:36
clivejoIm not sure on the git triggers01:37
clivejowe might have to wait until kci.pangea.pub is pointed the to correct IP01:37
wxlwell i was able to use the URL to trigger it01:38
wxlthe merger appeared to happen but then everything else failed01:38
wxlnothing's built all day01:38
clivejowell the config was changed a week or so ago01:38
clivejoKCI only triggers M-F at 0:00 UTC01:39
clivejoit takes the weekends off now01:39
wxlOH01:39
clivejoLP do maintenance at the weekend and was failing a lot of builds01:39
clivejoplus KDE generally only commit M-F01:40
clivejoso we figured lets give it S and S off and we can use it to poke our own stuff01:40
wxlso i guess i could just make it build manually, no?01:42
clivejoyou could yes01:42
wxlso what about the l10n thing?01:43
clivejoI dont understand your question01:43
wxlhm now i'm second-guessing myself trying to explain it01:44
clivejowe only release, released KDE software01:45
clivejowell, we should only do that01:45

clivejobasically to spread the workload over time01:50

ghostcubeit couldnt be you cant open a audio cd in kubuntu 16.04 with dolphin13:20
ghostcubecan you pls backport the 16.12 versions into lts? the suggestion in kde is to use 16.10... oh kubuntu13:21
ghostcubemaybe you need to talk to the kde guzys? cause for them not portin audio cd support is after it is ported a new feature... maybe iam a bit off reality but this is truely shit13:25

clem_lhi everyone13:35
clem_lcan you review http://blog.linuxmint.com/?p=3175 and let me know if you'd like anything changed/rephrased/added?13:35
soee_o/13:43
* soee_ installing kernel 4.8.1413:44
acheronukclem_l: that seems great from my perspective :)13:51
clem_lI might add KDE in front of Plasma 5.8 in the title13:53
acheronukyeah, end users don't quite get the distinction, and this is an update of the whole KDE stack, not just plasma13:55
clem_lyes, you also find people who think it's relevant to them and don't use the KDE edition :)13:57
clem_lthe more we succeed the more novice our average joe is unfortunately13:57
acheronukclem_l: agreed. that is why the motto "Kubuntu, making your PC friendly"14:02
acheronukI REALLY want to get kubuntu back to focusing on that concept, so I think we should get some better collaboration going. that may be mint, or debian or Neon. I have no issue with any of them14:04
ahoneybunacheronuk: -landing has Apps 16.04.3 right?14:05
acheronukahoneybun: yep14:06
ahoneybunalright14:06
ahoneybunacheronuk: I don't think we can tell users to use konsole with apt to update no?14:08
ahoneybun16.04 has Muon not Discover 14:08
acheronuksadly we can't ship newer that until debian/ubuntu sort the whole qtwebengine mess14:08

acheronukahoneybun: I would stick with command line instructions for testing, as to be bluntly honest, anyone who doe not get how to use that probably should not be testing in the first place14:12
ahoneybunacheronuk: yea I kinda think the same14:14
ahoneybunalso having ppa purge knowledge14:14
acheronukindeed. the mint bog post is live now, so If you could get something on kubuntu.org PDQ that would be great14:16

ahoneybunany good acheronuk?14:26
clem_lit's relayed on twitter/facebook/website too, so it should grab people's attention eventually14:26

mparilloclem_l: I hope I am not too late, but what a gracious post. To an American, "a massive amount of efforts" sounds off. Is that idiomatic to the Commonwealth? Since it has been a while since I ran Linux Mint (always the KDE Flavour), I cannot remember if I needed to accept keyrings in Software Sources15:48
ghostcubeso i tried landing ppa, audio cd error still not fixed16:21
ghostcubedolphin audio cd reading is fixed in 16.12 16:21
ghostcubeany possiubility you get the audio cd function fixed?16:22
ahoneybunghostcube: is there a bug report?16:22
ghostcubesure16:22
IrcsomeBot<tsimonq2> ghostcube: We can't backport Apps 16.12.0 until we get QtWebEngine16:22
IrcsomeBot<tsimonq2> So no bug report needed, it's kbown16:23
IrcsomeBot<tsimonq2> *known16:23
IrcsomeBot<tsimonq2> We just need to find out which components do not need it.16:23
IrcsomeBot<tsimonq2> But either way, we're waiting on the Qt release team.16:23
IrcsomeBot<tsimonq2> They need to press buttons.16:24
IrcsomeBot<tsimonq2> Then we get it in Ubuntu. :)16:24
ghostcubeok i even dont get the fact that a computer cant read a audio cd... 16:25
ghostcubebut ok, in kde they told me 16.10 has got 16.12 in release? is this correct16:26
ahoneybunKubuntu 16.10 with the backports-landing you will have 16.04.316:26
ghostcubethis is what i get in 16.04 now too16:26
ghostcubeso it wont work there too16:26
ghostcubethats the same prob like you dont have a job you dont get a flat, you dont have a flat you dont get a job16:27
ahoneybunacheronuk: clem_l : http://betanews.com/2016/12/11/linux-mint-resources-kde-plasma-kubuntu/16:27
ahoneybunof course16:27
ahoneybunwow what a bad spin on it16:28
ahoneybun"I can see your POV on this but the way I see it is that our distros are working together (Linux Mint and Kubuntu) are finally working together more closely as they should to benefit the users. After all other then having fun working on the distro that's that other reason we do it."16:31
ahoneybunthat's what I wrote16:31
mparilloIn the Italian-American neighbourhood I was raised, Fagioli (pronounced fa-zool, literally bean(s)) was an all-purpose derogatory way of saying anything from unserious to crazy.16:34
mparilloYour response was more substantive as well as more polite.16:36
clem_lhi16:46
clem_lkeyring are added automatically when adding PPAs16:46
clem_lbetanews.com, ah well, as a blogger it pays more to do controversy and be outspoken and opinionated16:49
clem_las a distro we're supposed to be 'better' and let our communities spit on the competition, I guess we're a bit out of line with that post16:50
=== wens_ is now known as _Wens_
IrcsomeBot<CliffordTheBigRedDoggie> That article is disgusting17:24
IrcsomeBot<CliffordTheBigRedDoggie> Developer resources are spread too thin, who does he think he is dictating where volunteers and contributor's direct their attention!17:30
IrcsomeBot<Sick_Rimmit> I think that is a balanced article actually. I can see that Clement makes a valid point, and perhaps this raises the bar for us in Kubuntu, to improve our distro, adding small useability tweaks, and improvements that would help us grow.17:31
IrcsomeBot<Sick_Rimmit> The fracturing of communities, and it's diversity is what makes open source what it is.17:31
IrcsomeBot<Sick_Rimmit> It was also the downfall of Unix, and what allowed rubbish such as Windows to grab the market.17:32
IrcsomeBot<Sick_Rimmit> I'll add that article and link to the Kubuntu Podacast, it is a good discussion point17:33
IrcsomeBot<CliffordTheBigRedDoggie> Click baiting *beep* *beep* *beep*17:34
IrcsomeBot<CliffordTheBigRedDoggie> Even the title is pure lies, we reached out to Mint!17:36
clem_lthat's ok, you can't expect them to actually ask questions before posting opinions17:37
clem_lthey're not journalists :)17:37
clem_lI wish they all wrote on the same blog though, I'm really annoyed with bloggers fragmentation, it's cause of that that reddit got so popular17:38
IrcsomeBot<Sick_Rimmit> Well the headline suggest that Linux Mint, has reached out to Kubuntu.17:39
clem_lI'll have a talk with my wife tonight too, I think we've too many friends and too many kids, we should have made less and focus on them more17:40
clem_ldefinitely raises a lot of valid points17:40
clem_lneighbors should have helped too, I don't understand why they made their own.. parental fragmentation17:41
clem_lright, that's enough sarcasm probably17:41
ahoneybunI happen to agree mostly with clivejo17:56
ahoneybunwhen we don't work together people complain, and now they do when we do17:57

DarinMillerfresh install, full format....23:05
valoriethis is old, but it hasn't changed much: http://web.fe.up.pt/~jmcruz/etc/kde/kdeqt/kde3arch/ksycoca.html23:06
valorieI just wonder why it reuses the old cache23:06
DarinMillerI tell ya, this laptop is weird. Have to add nomodeset during boot just see the desktop, boot with mouse unplugged, then no panel is present so I have to add my own... None of my other boxes do this.23:08
valorieyou can run kbuildsycoca5 --noincremental to refresh the configs23:09
DarinMillerOnce I install nvidia and reboot, it behaves as expected, but until then, it's a monster.  I have seen "newbies" post trying to get this same box running linux and this is the only laptop I discourage a new person from trying.23:13
clivejoDarinMiller: seems to install no problem on my system :/23:13
DarinMillerSometime updates will send this laptop off the deep end and I have to re-install NVidia drivers from the command line. I don't mind the challenge but it not for new users.23:15
DarinMillerbtw, kdeconnect prompted on the laptop for pairing but failed to complete.  Once Nvida drivers finish insatlling, I reboot and try again.23:15
DarinMillerUsually issues described above go away after a few kernel releases but though the install difficulty is not as bad as a year ago, it needs lots of help. 23:19
IrcsomeBot2<tsimonq2> @clem_l, They are the "journalists" in the US. They ask the wrong questions to the wrong people, even if they ask the right people, they make them trick questions so that however they answer it makes them sound bad. They bikeshed the hell out of every bad thing the person says and ignores the good stuff. And whatever happens, they are always biased against someone, covering something up.  … Yeah, the recent US election reall23:20

DarinMillerclivejo: Now that I think about it, I restarted plasma from the terminal and proceed to use the same terminal for updates. So I suspect line 22 is plasma responding to the install sequence as all plasma notifications are currently popping up in that terminal.23:20
IrcsomeBot2<marcinsagol> kernel 4.9 available now in Ubuntu mainline http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.9/23:22
clivejook, so those arent actually anything to do with the apt install of kdeconnect23:23
DarinMillernvidia drivers installed laptop is booting as it should with mouse plugged in and default panel auto appears.23:23
DarinMillerclivejo: correct. and after reboot, kdeconnect is working fine.... I had run all updates, added the ppa, updated again without rebooting.23:24
clivejoit pairs and works with a phone?23:24
DarinMillerclivejo: yes23:24
clivejoah same here23:24
DarinMillerclivejo: sent file successfully, remote input works as well as message alerts.  (have not tried responding to a text yet).23:26
clivejothe reply functions requires you to use the default messaging app23:27
DarinMillerclivejo: yes, I appreciate that tip as it was driving me crazy.  I wish the google texting app worked as it runs better on my phone, but I would rather have the kdeconnect functionality.23:28
clivejoa lot of people use other messaging apps23:30
clivejoand I was using one until I realised and changed back23:31
DarinMillerWow, default text is sure tiny on HDPI displays with ZZ.   I kept seeing references to HDPI fixed from the plasma team all summer long regarding better defaults, but I have to put on my glasses to fix the scaling in system settings.23:31
clivejoreplying from desktop is much more useful than using a fancy messaging app23:31
clivejohas anyone tried a wayland session?23:32
DarinMillerclivejo: I totally agree.23:32
clivejoIm just hoping kdeconnect will intregate with Nougat and allow to reply to other nofications like Telegram/WhatsApp etc23:33
DarinMillerclivejo: I tried wayland last week (on my intel only work laptop)  and I could barely tell the difference wrt X.23:33
valoriewhat's nougat (besides a kind of candy)23:33
clivejoAndroid23:33
valorieah23:34
clivejo7.1 codename23:34
valorienewer than what I have I'm sure23:34
clivejothey name it after sweets23:34
clivejoKitkat, Lolipop, Marshmallow and Nougat23:34
valorieI know *that*23:34
valorieI have 5.0.223:35
* DarinMiller Kubuntu Driver manager successfully install intel micro code on the hybrid box using the popup menu. (Failed on another box a few days ago).23:35
clivejoI do like Nougat23:35
clivejoDarinMiller: do you have Muon installed?23:35
IrcsomeBot2<tsimonq2> Hi23:36
clivejoHi Simey Wimey23:36
IrcsomeBot2<tsimonq2> Hi Clivey Mimey23:36
IrcsomeBot2<tsimonq2> :P23:36
DarinMillerclivejo: not yet, I can test  16.04 or newer ... test all 3 (xx,yy, & zz)?23:37
DarinMillerhey tsimonq2 o/23:38
clivejorunning Muon and performing an update seems to update the indexes to allow Driver Manager to work23:39

DarinMillerclivejo: I will give that a shot.  After the intel micro code installed, the Driver Manager thinks I have the nouveu? driver installed and keeps parking the notification icon in the sys tray.23:41

clivejoDarinMiller: try a "sudo update-apt-xapian-index"23:44
DarinMillerclivejo: that appears to have fixed the confused Driver Manager.  23:50
clivejoyeah, it needs fixed, but I dont know enough about it to fix it :(23:51
valorieclivejo: that seems to have fixed it for me too23:59
clivejoits known to fix it23:59
