[00:48] <bluesabre> ochosi, g_timeout_add is what I would suggest
[00:50] <bluesabre> or rather, g_idle_add
[00:50] <bluesabre> https://developer.gnome.org/glib/stable/glib-The-Main-Event-Loop.html#g-idle-add
[00:50] <bluesabre> the callback function would handle 1 round of the loop each go until done
[00:51] <bluesabre> once done, return FALSE to end the loop
[00:51] <bluesabre> should be some examples here and there of it
[00:52] <bluesabre> for one, https://mail.xfce.org/pipermail/xfce4-commits/2012-February/028502.html
[08:29] <flocculant> what package is it that would concern itself with how to open something - eg a pdf from a website worked ok the other day, now it's apparently trying to open with mousepad :(
[12:01] <bluesabre> flocculant, usually its xdg-utils or exo
[12:02] <bluesabre> neither have been updated in the last few days though (exo back in November)
[12:02] <bluesabre> maybe check if its happening in ubuntu land as well, could be some other completely unrelated thing
[12:04] <bluesabre> ochosi, what gtk3 xfce things would you recommend pulling into zesty that have not already landed?
[12:24] <flocculant> bluesabre: thanks - I coculdn't remember those at all :)
[12:32] <flocculant> bluesabre: and it's seemingly a local thing
[12:36] <flocculant> and transient - cos it works now ...
[19:47] <akxwi-dave> ochosi just to advise, the scrolling problem flocculant has on the notification settings.. I'm getting the same thing on todays iso..  once a number of programs have been added to the second tab.. you can scroll with the scroll bar,  but not the scroll wheel of the mouse..
[19:53] <flocculant> akxwi-dave: the one on the iso (iirc) is the 'old' version - and the mouse scroll issue should be fixed in master
[19:54] <flocculant> master (or the logging_rebased) thing should have that fixed - that is what ochosi and I have been talking about
[19:55] <flocculant> http://i.imgur.com/cPtAlrw.png
[19:55] <flocculant> iso on the left there
[19:56] <flocculant> oh my this could get confusing - screenshotting the screenshot tool :)
[19:56] <akxwi-dave> lol.. ahhh  so  new version coming
[19:57] <flocculant> should be - not sure when though :)
[19:57] <flocculant> you can test it too :p
[19:59] <flocculant> ochosi: get this erratically > http://i.imgur.com/adwlFwL.png
[20:00] <akxwi-dave> :-) will teach me to try and skim read a catch up rather than fully    :-)
[20:00] <flocculant> :)
[20:03] <flocculant> git clone git://git.xfce.org/users/ochosi/xfce4-notifyd; cd xfce4-notifyd; git checkout logging_rebased;;
[20:03] <flocculant> ./autogen.sh && make && sudo make install && killall xfce-notifyd
[20:04] <flocculant> would be good to confirm it not working on zesty I think
[20:04] <flocculant> I think that is all right ^^
[20:05] <akxwi-dave> got a zest machine at work.. will get that tested 1st thing
[20:13] <flocculant> akxwi-dave: cheers - best check in channel here before - just in case I got the git voodoo wrong ...
[20:14] <flocculant> oh - apt-get build deps xfce4-notifyd too 
[21:42] <ochosi> flocculant: hm, well the scrolling issue doesn't appear for me here, so it's not yet fixed in master. i will try to spin up a vm with zesty though and test it there with notifyd
[21:42] <ochosi> the thing that is fixed though is the not-expanding scrolled window
[21:43] <flocculant> ochosi: ack - window expansion is good here 
[21:43] <ochosi> k, good
[21:44] <flocculant> ochosi: does the bit above I told akxwi-dave look right?
[21:44]  * flocculant grabbed it from bash history ;)
[21:44] <ochosi> btw, would have been nice to get the bug also reported upstream so that users from other distros can also chime in
[21:44] <flocculant> which - the scrolling thing?
[21:44] <ochosi> yeah, that looks about right
[21:44] <ochosi> yeah, the scrolling one
[21:45] <flocculant> I did ask about reporting - and you said tell me in here ;)
[21:45] <flocculant> I did do some lp reporting I think - but I'm happy to report upstream ofc 
[21:46] <flocculant> ochosi: though git issue or bugzilla?
[21:46] <ochosi> yeah, but only for stuff that doesn't affect master ;)
[21:46] <flocculant> ok :)
[21:46] <ochosi> upstream is in bugzilla, github is only a mirror
[21:46] <ochosi> so bugs.xfce.org
[21:46] <flocculant> ok - so I can do that no problem at all 
[21:48] <flocculant> ochosi: how do I get the version from git? 
[21:52] <ochosi> flocculant: how do you mean?
[21:52] <flocculant> is it some bizarre version of xfce4-notifyd - or just what I'd see from dpkg -l ?
[21:53] <ochosi> you lost me there
[21:53] <flocculant> ok - well nvm then :p
[21:53] <flocculant> anywat xfce 13275
[21:53] <flocculant> anyway ...
[21:55] <flocculant> linked the lp bug to that too
[21:56] <ochosi> so you want to have the version of git master..?
[21:56] <flocculant> I just wondered that - not necessary for the bug I guess
[21:59] <ochosi> but this bug also affects the version shipped in zesty, right?
[21:59] <flocculant> yea 
[22:00] <ochosi> k, so i'll add 0.3.4 as the version tag
[22:00] <flocculant> ochosi: I just did that 
[22:02] <flocculant> and akxwi-dave confirmed the issue in the zest version ^^
[22:02] <ochosi> yup
[22:03] <flocculant> and I was seeing that (and the non expanding box) previously to you talking me into this git version :D
[22:05] <flocculant> added that as a comment on the bug (ignoring the expansion of box)
[22:06] <flocculant> off now - night all 
[22:06] <ochosi> :)
[22:06] <ochosi> night flocculant 
[22:38] <knome> ochosi, you have 10 minutes?
[22:38] <knome> bluesabre, when are you going to be around?
[22:38] <ochosi> like "10" or 10?
[22:38] <knome> 10
[22:39] <knome> well it depends how fast YOU are...
[23:34] <ochosi> bluesabre: do you feel we can unleash xfce4-settings-gtk3 on users just yet?
