user|12465 | i seem to have borked my kubuntu 17.04 update | 00:32 |
---|---|---|
valorie | user|12465: try `sudo apt install -f` in the commandline | 00:32 |
valorie | where f=fix | 00:32 |
valorie | perhaps something was incompletely downloaded | 00:33 |
valorie | or so | 00:33 |
user|12465 | it tells me i have packages that i can autoremove, should i do that? | 00:34 |
user|12465 | the message i'm getting when i try to install kubuntu-desktop is about unmet dependencies | 00:34 |
user|12465 | things like "kubuntu-desktop: Depends breeze but it is not going to be installed ...." | 00:36 |
user|12465 | i assume this means that i have a package installed that isn't compatible, but i'm not sure how to find what package it is | 00:37 |
IrcsomeBot | <acheronuk> did you have the backports ppa enabled for 16.10? | 00:46 |
IrcsomeBot | <acheronuk> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ZestyZapus/ReleaseNotes/Kubuntu#Getting_Kubuntu_17.04 | 00:46 |
user|12465 | i think that i purged them before updating | 00:47 |
user|12465 | when i trun ppa-purge now though | 00:48 |
user|12465 | i get | 00:48 |
user|12465 | PPA to be removed: kubuntu-ppa backports | 00:48 |
user|12465 | Warning: Could not find package list for PPA: kubuntu-ppa backports | 00:49 |
user|12465 | in my software sources, i see zesty-backports | 00:50 |
user|12465 | but i assume that is from after the upgrade | 00:51 |
IrcsomeBot | <acheronuk> is zesty backports disabled? | 00:53 |
user|12465 | no | 00:54 |
IrcsomeBot | <acheronuk> one option could be to enable it. update your sources (sudo apt-get update) then retry the upgrade | 00:55 |
user|12465 | it was already enabled, so i disabled it and tried, but no luck | 00:57 |
user|12465 | one of the things that is missing is breeze | 00:57 |
user|12465 | so if i try to install that | 00:57 |
user|12465 | i get that breeze depends on libkf5kcmutils5 | 00:58 |
IrcsomeBot | <acheronuk> do-release-upgrade should disable ppa, so it shouldn't have been enabled unless you did it yourself | 00:59 |
user|12465 | so it sounds like what you're saying is that the problem i have is that i have some backport packages installed that are creating dependencies on packages that need to be removed | 01:01 |
user|12465 | is there someway to find all the dependencies of kubuntu-desktop, and then find the installed packages that are in conflict with any of those? | 01:02 |
user|12465 | some sort of dpkg magic? | 01:02 |
IrcsomeBot | <acheronuk> that is one possible reason. packages from frameworks 5.34 from Yakkety backports may need downgrading to the 5.31 version in normal zesty if the ppa-purge you did before upgrading somehow missed some | 01:08 |
user|12465 | i tried tracing the libkf5kcmutils5 back farther | 01:10 |
user|12465 | that depends on | 01:10 |
user|12465 | "libkf5kcmutils-data (=5.31.0-ubuntu1) but 5.36.0-0ubuntu1~ubuntu16.04~ppa1 is to be installed" | 01:11 |
user|12465 | so i see a unbuntu16.04 in that, which looks questionable | 01:12 |
IrcsomeBot | <acheronuk> that's a package from Xenial backports! | 01:14 |
user|12465 | the ! makes that sound bad | 01:15 |
user|12465 | apt-cache rdepends libkf5kcmutils-5.36.0-0ubuntu1~.... doesn't return anything | 01:17 |
user|12465 | do i have the syntax wrong? | 01:17 |
IrcsomeBot | <acheronuk> well, it sounds like you have upgraded twice without removing the previous backports, or for some reason have the Xenail ppa enabled on a release it should never be on | 01:18 |
IrcsomeBot | <acheronuk> afraid it's gone 2am here, so I ahve to go | 01:21 |
user|12465 | thanks for the help | 01:21 |
IrcsomeBot | <acheronuk> that Xenial package version is less than a month old, so really it should never be available on a 16.10 box being updated to zesty. that it is says to me you have a muddle with wrong ppas added somewhere | 01:24 |
IrcsomeBot | <acheronuk> no problem. hope you can sort it out without the pain of a fresh install! | 01:25 |
user|12465 | me too | 01:25 |
IrcsomeBot | <acheronuk> a last resort could be to set in /etc/apt/preferences.d/downgrade … to http://paste.ubuntu.com/25260018/ | 01:31 |
IrcsomeBot | <acheronuk> replacing the url there with your mirror | 01:31 |
IrcsomeBot | <acheronuk> that would make apt force all packages to the official zesty ones | 01:31 |
IrcsomeBot | <acheronuk> then you remove that file again once fixed | 01:32 |

sobersabre | hi. I think my kde installation is missing some packages. | 05:26 |
sobersabre | I used one of those 'how to install kde on ubuntu', and this is not good enough. | 05:26 |
sobersabre | symptoms: when using mouse and pressing the left-bottom "K" menu, all works ok. | 05:26 |
sobersabre | when trying to type in the names of the apps in there - 1st char gets printed, but next ones don't get printed. | 05:27 |
sobersabre | symptom #2: cannot add google stuff via accounts | 05:27 |
sobersabre | help would be appreciated. | 05:28 |
sobersabre | of course by 'kde installation' I mean plasma desktop etc. | 05:29 |
sobersabre | this is of course a mix of user/admin questions. | 05:40 |
sobersabre | b/c to make it work I'll probably need to do some admin tasks. | 05:40 |
sobersabre | maybe a more concise question would be: | 05:43 |
sobersabre | my searches are broken. | 05:43 |
sobersabre | and my online accounts don't allow google | 05:43 |
=== helium-3 is now known as dilfridge | ||
sobersabre | I have tried going into settings and turning on/off various types of searches. | 05:46 |
sobersabre | Also, I see I have akonadi server running. | 05:46 |
sobersabre | it is supposed to be searches/indexes server. | 05:46 |
sobersabre | how can I test it is doing what it is supposed to? | 05:47 |
sobersabre | maybe it got stuck/corrupted? | 05:47 |
hateball | sobersabre: akonadictl status | 05:49 |
hateball | akonadictl -h, for other commands | 05:49 |
valorie | sobersabre: if you think you are missing packages, try `sudo apt-get install -f` | 05:50 |
=== himcesjf_ is now known as himcesjf | ||
valorie | where f=fix | 05:50 |
valorie | can you explain where you are trying to add google accounts? | 05:51 |
* valorie has no problems with google accounts on either of my Kubuntu laptops | 05:51 | |
sobersabre | akonadi is running. | 05:52 |
sobersabre | valorie: apt-get install -f did nothing. | 05:53 |
valorie | ok, so you are missing no dependencies or other vital packages | 05:53 |
sobersabre | I'm using gui, via KDE settings -> Personalization -> Online accounts | 05:53 |
valorie | huh, I've never used that | 05:54 |
valorie | I think it's part of KDE-telepathy? | 05:54 |
sobersabre | when I'm pressing '+', click on Google, I'm getting a dialog with error: There was an error while trying to process the request: userActionFinished error: 2 | 05:54 |
valorie | afaik that is no longer maintained | 05:54 |
sobersabre | valorie: ok. | 05:54 |
sobersabre | then let's focus on searches only. | 05:55 |
valorie | too bad, it used to work great | 05:55 |
valorie | all these sites have changed their APIs and it became impossible | 05:55 |
sobersabre | searches valorie I don't want sites. | 05:56 |
sobersabre | I'm talking about the freaking local applications. | 05:56 |
valorie | sure | 05:56 |
sobersabre | I don't want to search inside files. I want to use keyboard to launch things. | 05:56 |
sobersabre | like I do with all desktops. | 05:56 |
sobersabre | not keyboard shortcuts. | 05:57 |
sobersabre | so is this feature known to be broken? | 05:57 |
valorie | ah, I think you want krunner | 05:57 |
valorie | alt+f1 | 05:57 |
valorie | type what you want, | 05:57 |
valorie | usually it's at the top, and you can just hit return to launch | 05:57 |
sobersabre | valorie: 'krunner' is using the same input processing as 'K' menu. so it's also crippled. | 05:57 |
valorie | you may have to arrow down | 05:58 |
sobersabre | maybe input processing is messed up? | 05:58 |
sobersabre | valorie, I am checking kde once in a while. initially, It worked. | 05:58 |
sobersabre | I used to type in, and get completions. and if there were more than 1 results I'd arrow down and choose. | 05:58 |
valorie | hmmm, it works well here in the newest alpha 2 | 05:59 |
sobersabre | but now I can type 1 character. | 05:59 |
sobersabre | valorie: don't you dare selling me alphas. | 05:59 |
sobersabre | make stable work :) | 05:59 |
valorie | well, it did lose focus after the first letter | 05:59 |
valorie | but if I continued typing, it worked | 05:59 |
valorie | let my try my LTS | 05:59 |
sobersabre | valorie: does not continue typing on my machine | 05:59 |
hateball | sobersabre: if you want to disable file indexing, that's baloo and not akonadi | 05:59 |
sobersabre | hateball: I want K menu and krunner to work. | 06:00 |
sobersabre | I don't care about how. | 06:00 |
hateball | alt+f2 -> baloo, first option, untick checkbox | 06:00 |
hateball | sobersabre: oh krunner is broken for you? | 06:00 |
valorie | krunner working in 16.04 | 06:01 |
sobersabre | krunner and K menu. | 06:02 |
valorie | not even the losing focus | 06:02 |
sobersabre | hateball: I've been grudging at KDE all this time. | 06:02 |
valorie | alt+space work to pop it up as well, in both | 06:02 |
sobersabre | just think how amazingly bad it is... | 06:02 |
valorie | hmmm, it seems amazingly good to me | 06:02 |
sobersabre | valorie: this is yet another very annoying thing to say :) | 06:03 |
sobersabre | I mean 'works for me' | 06:03 |
valorie | if you don't like the software, perhaps it's time to find something you like better | 06:03 |
hateball | sobersabre: do you have the same issue with a fresh profile? | 06:03 |
sobersabre | hateball: good point. | 06:03 |
sobersabre | hateball: and do you mean by fresh user account? | 06:04 |
sobersabre | or is there 'profile' concept for the same user? | 06:04 |
hateball | sobersabre: I mean user account yes | 06:04 |
hateball | it's probably something broken in your personal plasma config rather than systemwide breakage | 06:04 |

titikaka | hi, anybody knows if kubuntu's IM Contacts support pgp? | 06:25 |
valorie | titikaka: the former IM client kde-telepathy is no longer maintained or supported | 06:28 |
valorie | I'm not sure about the other choices | 06:28 |
valorie | there is Pidgin, Kopete, Bitlbee that I know of | 06:30 |

BluesKaj | Hi folks | 11:48 |
john85 | hello | 12:02 |
BluesKaj | hi john85 | 12:04 |
john85 | Hi again :) | 12:04 |
john85 | hows u? | 12:04 |
BluesKaj | fine thanks, and you? | 12:05 |
john85 | not so bad thanks | 12:05 |
john85 | have another minor issue though...i have a widget that I cant get rid of on my panel | 12:06 |
BluesKaj | ok, in the system tray ? | 12:07 |
john85 | yep | 12:07 |
john85 | i added a system monitor | 12:07 |
john85 | last time this happened i just removed the whole panel and replaced it, but i thought there has to be another way | 12:08 |
BluesKaj | click on the add widgets triple dash icon, then pas th cursor over the widget and you should get apopup with a red X, click on the red X | 12:09 |
BluesKaj | pass the cursor | 12:10 |
john85 | done, thanks :) i never would have thought to click on add widgets to remove them | 12:11 |
BluesKaj | yeah, it's one of those quirky things devs dream up :-) | 12:12 |
BluesKaj | simple tho | 12:12 |
john85 | ye, when you know how | 12:13 |
BluesKaj | i just add the system monitor from the menu/system to favs if I need to monitor something | 12:14 |
john85 | k | 12:15 |
john85 | what version of Kubuntu are you using BluesKaj? | 12:21 |
BluesKaj | john85, I'm on the devel 17.10 version | 12:22 |
john85 | does that have the option of the search and launch style desktop? | 12:22 |
BluesKaj | actually I'm on debian stretch atm , but I switch back and forth | 12:23 |
BluesKaj | hang oh , I'll brb | 12:23 |
john85 | ok | 12:23 |
BluesKaj | ok, john51 could you repost your question | 12:27 |
BluesKaj | err john85 | 12:28 |
john85 | does your version have the option of a search and launch destop? | 12:28 |
BluesKaj | like a different desktop backfrounds/wallpaper etc with differnt apps | 12:30 |
BluesKaj | ? | 12:30 |
john85 | one background, but there is a search function and all there are icons for categories of apps (internet, office etc..), and clicking on one will bring up all the apps in that category | 12:33 |
john85 | my typing is terrible | 12:33 |
lordievader | Search and Lauch, now that is old. Haven't seen it in a while. | 12:34 |
lordievader | I suppose the Dashboard launcher is somewhat of a replacement. | 12:34 |
john85 | i quite like the look of it | 12:35 |
BluesKaj | think only if you set up categorized apps in "activities" by creating a different activity for each category with related apps, but you don't need a search function for that | 12:36 |
lordievader | BluesKaj: This used to be a desktop option in KDE4 times. It would put a search bar on your desktop. | 12:38 |
BluesKaj | quick launch just launchess single apps altho you can drag or add as many apps into the launcher as you want | 12:38 |
BluesKaj | lordievader, never used the desktop search in kde4 | 12:39 |
lordievader | Now there are only two desktop types, `Desktop` and `Folder View`. | 12:39 |
john85 | ye, i dont like folder view | 12:40 |
BluesKaj | dashboard launch is something i avoid , prefer to keep everything in the panel without a menu covering the whole desktop | 12:41 |
BluesKaj | activities works but it's a bit of a of pita to setup | 12:42 |
BluesKaj | I preferred the virtual desktop pager above any other option, but now the separate background for each has been eliminated | 12:44 |
BluesKaj | but I still use it | 12:44 |
john85 | its a matter of personal preference i suppose | 12:44 |
BluesKaj | yup, one has live with one's choices, we all have different tastes | 12:45 |
john85 | search and launch does obstuct my nice background...but i rarely see that anyway | 12:45 |
BluesKaj | that's another option that was deleted from kde/plasma 5, or is it? | 12:47 |
lordievader | john51: The Krunner doesn't fit your needs? | 12:47 |
lordievader | BluesKaj: Never knew it was possible before. | 12:47 |
BluesKaj | yeah same here :-) | 12:48 |
john85 | sorry lordievader..got distracted | 12:54 |
john85 | whats Krunner? | 12:54 |
BluesKaj | alt+F2/runcommand | 12:56 |
john85 | i forgot i could have just typed krunner in to search | 12:56 |
lordievader | Quite useful for searching and launching applications ;) | 12:57 |
john85 | sorry i have to go guys...Im neglecting my duties | 12:59 |
john85 | speak again soon | 12:59 |
