=== jemand is now known as Jemand [00:32] i seem to have borked my kubuntu 17.04 update [00:32] user|12465: try `sudo apt install -f` in the commandline [00:32] where f=fix [00:33] perhaps something was incompletely downloaded [00:33] or so [00:34] it tells me i have packages that i can autoremove, should i do that? [00:34] the message i'm getting when i try to install kubuntu-desktop is about unmet dependencies [00:36] things like "kubuntu-desktop: Depends breeze but it is not going to be installed ...." [00:37] 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 [00:46] did you have the backports ppa enabled for 16.10? [00:46] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ZestyZapus/ReleaseNotes/Kubuntu#Getting_Kubuntu_17.04 [00:47] i think that i purged them before updating [00:48] when i trun ppa-purge now though [00:48] i get [00:48] PPA to be removed: kubuntu-ppa backports [00:49] Warning: Could not find package list for PPA: kubuntu-ppa backports [00:50] in my software sources, i see zesty-backports [00:51] but i assume that is from after the upgrade [00:53] is zesty backports disabled? [00:54] no [00:55] one option could be to enable it. update your sources (sudo apt-get update) then retry the upgrade [00:57] it was already enabled, so i disabled it and tried, but no luck [00:57] one of the things that is missing is breeze [00:57] so if i try to install that [00:58] i get that breeze depends on libkf5kcmutils5 [00:59] do-release-upgrade should disable ppa, so it shouldn't have been enabled unless you did it yourself [01:01] 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 [01:02] 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] some sort of dpkg magic? [01:08] 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 [01:10] i tried tracing the libkf5kcmutils5 back farther [01:10] that depends on [01:11] "libkf5kcmutils-data (=5.31.0-ubuntu1) but 5.36.0-0ubuntu1~ubuntu16.04~ppa1 is to be installed" [01:12] so i see a unbuntu16.04 in that, which looks questionable [01:14] that's a package from Xenial backports! [01:15] the ! makes that sound bad [01:17] apt-cache rdepends libkf5kcmutils-5.36.0-0ubuntu1~.... doesn't return anything [01:17] do i have the syntax wrong? [01:18] 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 [01:21] afraid it's gone 2am here, so I ahve to go [01:21] thanks for the help [01:24] 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 [01:25] no problem. hope you can sort it out without the pain of a fresh install! [01:25] me too [01:31] a last resort could be to set in /etc/apt/preferences.d/downgrade … to http://paste.ubuntu.com/25260018/ [01:31] replacing the url there with your mirror [01:31] that would make apt force all packages to the official zesty ones [01:32] then you remove that file again once fixed === Guest25102 is now known as lordievader === thyoo is now known as Taehee [05:26] hi. I think my kde installation is missing some packages. [05:26] I used one of those 'how to install kde on ubuntu', and this is not good enough. [05:26] symptoms: when using mouse and pressing the left-bottom "K" menu, all works ok. [05:27] 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] symptom #2: cannot add google stuff via accounts [05:28] help would be appreciated. [05:29] of course by 'kde installation' I mean plasma desktop etc. [05:40] this is of course a mix of user/admin questions. [05:40] b/c to make it work I'll probably need to do some admin tasks. [05:43] maybe a more concise question would be: [05:43] my searches are broken. [05:43] and my online accounts don't allow google === helium-3 is now known as dilfridge [05:46] I have tried going into settings and turning on/off various types of searches. [05:46] Also, I see I have akonadi server running. [05:46] it is supposed to be searches/indexes server. [05:47] how can I test it is doing what it is supposed to? [05:47] maybe it got stuck/corrupted? [05:49] sobersabre: akonadictl status [05:49] akonadictl -h, for other commands [05:50] sobersabre: if you think you are missing packages, try `sudo apt-get install -f` === himcesjf_ is now known as himcesjf [05:50] where f=fix [05:51] 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 [05:52] akonadi is running. [05:53] valorie: apt-get install -f did nothing. [05:53] ok, so you are missing no dependencies or other vital packages [05:53] I'm using gui, via KDE settings -> Personalization -> Online accounts [05:54] huh, I've never used that [05:54] I think it's part of KDE-telepathy? [05:54] 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] afaik that is no longer maintained [05:54] valorie: ok. [05:55] then let's focus on searches only. [05:55] too bad, it used to work great [05:55] all these sites have changed their APIs and it became impossible [05:56] searches valorie I don't want sites. [05:56] I'm talking about the freaking local applications. [05:56] sure [05:56] I don't want to search inside files. I want to use keyboard to launch things. [05:56] like I do with all desktops. [05:57] not keyboard shortcuts. [05:57] so is this feature known to be broken? [05:57] ah, I think you want krunner [05:57] alt+f1 [05:57] type what you want, [05:57] usually it's at the top, and you can just hit return to launch [05:57] valorie: 'krunner' is using the same input processing as 'K' menu. so it's also crippled. [05:58] you may have to arrow down [05:58] maybe input processing is messed up? [05:58] valorie, I am checking kde once in a while. initially, It worked. [05:58] I used to type in, and get completions. and if there were more than 1 results I'd arrow down and choose. [05:59] hmmm, it works well here in the newest alpha 2 [05:59] but now I can type 1 character. [05:59] valorie: don't you dare selling me alphas. [05:59] make stable work :) [05:59] well, it did lose focus after the first letter [05:59] but if I continued typing, it worked [05:59] let my try my LTS [05:59] valorie: does not continue typing on my machine [05:59] sobersabre: if you want to disable file indexing, that's baloo and not akonadi [06:00] hateball: I want K menu and krunner to work. [06:00] I don't care about how. [06:00] alt+f2 -> baloo, first option, untick checkbox [06:00] sobersabre: oh krunner is broken for you? [06:01] krunner working in 16.04 [06:02] krunner and K menu. [06:02] not even the losing focus [06:02] hateball: I've been grudging at KDE all this time. [06:02] alt+space work to pop it up as well, in both [06:02] just think how amazingly bad it is... [06:02] hmmm, it seems amazingly good to me [06:03] valorie: this is yet another very annoying thing to say :) [06:03] I mean 'works for me' [06:03] if you don't like the software, perhaps it's time to find something you like better [06:03] sobersabre: do you have the same issue with a fresh profile? [06:03] hateball: good point. [06:04] hateball: and do you mean by fresh user account? [06:04] or is there 'profile' concept for the same user? [06:04] sobersabre: I mean user account yes [06:04] it's probably something broken in your personal plasma config rather than systemwide breakage === saji_ is now known as jjk_saji [06:13] hateball: then maybe I should clean it the f*** up ? [06:13] let me test. [06:25] hi, anybody knows if kubuntu's IM Contacts support pgp? [06:28] titikaka: the former IM client kde-telepathy is no longer maintained or supported [06:28] I'm not sure about the other choices [06:30] there is Pidgin, Kopete, Bitlbee that I know of [06:33] sorry, heading to bed [07:19] Good morning === aaron is now known as Guest26611 [07:33] hi folks [07:35] o/ === kubuntu is now known as Guest51749 === Guest51749 is now known as m_veskov [10:52] Hello ! === m_veskov is now known as m_veskov_BG [10:53] wave :) [10:54] Ei pedarugi kajete pone edno zdrasti [10:55] Da vi go na4ukam do madete !!! [10:58] weird [11:48] Hi folks [12:02] hello [12:04] hi john85 [12:04] Hi again :) [12:04] hows u? [12:05] fine thanks, and you? [12:05] not so bad thanks [12:06] have another minor issue though...i have a widget that I cant get rid of on my panel [12:07] ok, in the system tray ? [12:07] yep [12:07] i added a system monitor [12:08] last time this happened i just removed the whole panel and replaced it, but i thought there has to be another way [12:09] 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 [12:10] pass the cursor [12:11] done, thanks :) i never would have thought to click on add widgets to remove them [12:12] yeah, it's one of those quirky things devs dream up :-) [12:12] simple tho [12:13] ye, when you know how [12:14] i just add the system monitor from the menu/system to favs if I need to monitor something [12:15] k [12:21] what version of Kubuntu are you using BluesKaj? [12:22] john85, I'm on the devel 17.10 version [12:22] does that have the option of the search and launch style desktop? [12:23] actually I'm on debian stretch atm , but I switch back and forth [12:23] hang oh , I'll brb [12:23] ok [12:27] ok, john51 could you repost your question [12:28] err john85 [12:28] does your version have the option of a search and launch destop? [12:30] like a different desktop backfrounds/wallpaper etc with differnt apps [12:30] ? [12:33] 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] my typing is terrible [12:34] Search and Lauch, now that is old. Haven't seen it in a while. [12:34] I suppose the Dashboard launcher is somewhat of a replacement. [12:35] i quite like the look of it [12:36] 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 [12:38] BluesKaj: This used to be a desktop option in KDE4 times. It would put a search bar on your desktop. [12:38] quick launch just launchess single apps altho you can drag or add as many apps into the launcher as you want [12:39] lordievader, never used the desktop search in kde4 [12:39] Now there are only two desktop types, `Desktop` and `Folder View`. [12:40] ye, i dont like folder view [12:41] dashboard launch is something i avoid , prefer to keep everything in the panel without a menu covering the whole desktop [12:42] activities works but it's a bit of a of pita to setup [12:44] I preferred the virtual desktop pager above any other option, but now the separate background for each has been eliminated [12:44] but I still use it [12:44] its a matter of personal preference i suppose [12:45] yup, one has live with one's choices, we all have different tastes [12:45] search and launch does obstuct my nice background...but i rarely see that anyway [12:47] that's another option that was deleted from kde/plasma 5, or is it? [12:47] john51: The Krunner doesn't fit your needs? [12:47] BluesKaj: Never knew it was possible before. [12:48] yeah same here :-) [12:54] sorry lordievader..got distracted [12:54] whats Krunner? [12:56] alt+F2/runcommand [12:56] i forgot i could have just typed krunner in to search [12:57] Quite useful for searching and launching applications ;) [12:59] sorry i have to go guys...Im neglecting my duties [12:59] speak again soon [15:17] Bonjsoir [15:18] qui et sous Vayager ?? === juboxi is now known as jubo2 [15:26] ray_, voyager linux? it is based on ubuntu, but not supported here, guess they have their own issues. [15:27] @oerheks THX === amar_ is now known as Guest19729 === Guest19729 is now known as amar__ [16:36] hey :) [16:42] xev doesn't show an input event for this one particular button on my laptop (it works for the others, and i took advantage of this to set up a custom terminal-launching shortcut with a special programmable key) [16:43] so, how can use a tool other than xev to show a button that doesn't show up on xev? [16:43] btw, LOVE kubuntu. i think it's my new favorite [16:44] sorry I cant help you, I'm new to Kubuntu myself, but stick around and I'm sure someone will be able to [16:45] i'm gonna take this to #ubuntu since theres more people there. [16:45] ok [16:57] heh, don't see him in #ubuntu ..he just quit irc === Ab3L|2 is now known as Ab3L [17:23] ff === bang is now known as Guest69319 [19:48] hello everyone [19:49] i want to open a file i select in dolphin in a specific app via shortcut, but i don't know how to get the filename as an argument. is this possible? [20:12] chris__: I usually use krunner for that - alt + space, type the name of the file, and return [20:14] hi [20:15] why there are only changelog and copyright files in the packages libnetfilter-queue1 and libnetfilter-queue-dev? (16.04) [20:16] where are the libraries? oO [20:20] bennii: not sure how many of the packagers are in this chan, so you might ask your question in #kubuntu-devel [20:43] bennii: Look again. [21:04] krytarik: ? [21:10] bennii: https://packages.ubuntu.com/xenial/amd64/libnetfilter-queue1/filelist [21:12] and if i peek inside the deb file, they are there [21:17] acheronuk: yea, youre right. [21:17] omg, i looked at /usr/lib/libnetfilter-queue... [21:20] ah. that explains why you didn't didn't them
