lubot<VikingRedwolf> @Brokera, 😢12:07
lubot<VikingRedwolf> @tsimonq2, wxl, I'm doing some changes in lubuntu.me, replacing some proprietary-code shortcodes by opensource Genesis (also their columns plugin looks way better in mobiles)12:08
lubot<VikingRedwolf> question, should I add the phabricator to the support page? is it that public?12:09
lubot<VikingRedwolf> (Photo, 299x353) https://i.imgur.com/8GqZPGF.jpg also, wxl, I added the option to toot every site modification (including blog posts, updates, links changed, etc). you happy now? ;)12:14
lubot<tsimonq2> @VikingRedwolf, OK 👍12:31
lubot<VikingRedwolf> is that a YES to add the phab link?12:39
lubot<tsimonq2> @VikingRedwolf, Yes?12:49
lubot<VikingRedwolf> 👍🏻12:50
wxl[m]@vikingredwolf toot something so we can see it in action14:11
lubot<VikingRedwolf> I modified a page and it tooted it automatically :$ I deleted it14:11
lubot<VikingRedwolf> but I shall, I'll prove that feature when I "fix" the homepage (something broke it, sigh)14:12
wxl[m]K14:12
wxl[m]Or announce phab?14:12
lubot<VikingRedwolf> better :)14:33
lubot<VikingRedwolf> if you're so kind, wxl, can you think about what to say? :) you know a can be very "spartan" sometimes :)14:44
wxl"Inspired by the wonderful KDE folks, Lubuntu has created a Phabricator instance (http://phab.lubuntu.me) for our project. Phabricator (https://www.phacility.com/phabricator/) is an open source, version control system-agnostic collaborative development environment similar in some ways to GitHub, GitLab, and perhaps a bit more remotely, like Launchpad. We were looking for tools to organize, coordinate,16:36
wxland collaborate, especially across teams within the project. In particular, we wanted a taskbaord similar to Trello, which Phabricator does a great job with. It also has lots of other features (including continuous integration which perhaps we may make use out of). We encourage you to get an account and play with it, find places that you can contribute (such as deciding on Lubuntu Next apps:16:36
wxlhttp://phab.lubuntu.me/T14). We're working on Ubuntu One authentication (http://phab.lubuntu.me/T11) but you can do a normal user/password as well as GitHub or Twitter OAuth. Let us know if you have any questions, comments, or concerns."16:36
wxl^^ @VikingRedwolf16:36
wxlOH WAIt16:36
wxlAdd this in there: After you're done checking it out, you might want to contribute to this poll about adding a Canonical-hosted Phabricator: https://community.ubuntu.com/t/poll-phabricator-versus-launchpad/2119/8"16:37
wxlomg the community support for phabricator is discourse. w t f16:40
agaidaat least they use the right language in the support :P16:44
wxlas opposed to?16:45
agaidaruby vs php16:45
wxloh oh oh yeah...16:45
agaida:) and discourse isn't that bad - if one install it without docker16:46
wxlthe irony is that all the functionality of discourse exists within phabricator16:47
wxltl;dr poor dogfooding16:47
lubot<VikingRedwolf> @wxl, O.O16:48
lubot<VikingRedwolf> I certainly prefer the spartan way16:48
agaidaouch16:48
wxlyou asked for it16:48
agaidawxl: see it that way - if they wreck phabricator they can give support or ask for help  :P16:49
lubot<VikingRedwolf> Like... "hey, we have Phab now. Cool, ey?" 😐16:49
wxlagaida: right, and that's why you run all your lxqts in vms inside windows, right? XD16:49
agaidano, to complicated16:50
agaidabut i tend to agree that windows would be a nice and stable base16:50
agaida:P16:50
* wxl facepalms16:50
agaidamaybe with the windows virt solution16:51
agaidahihihi16:51
agaidabut i have found a rock stable and production ready solution for LXQt - i simply run a rock stable sid :D16:52
agaidaand the best is: no need to reinstall, no need to mention a new name every few month or all two years - just use it without any problems16:53
* agaida hide16:53
lubot<tsimonq2> wxl, @VikingRedwolf: Mention our current Phab hosting provider in that post17:15
wxlyes17:16
wxlbtw i am annoyed by that "check them out at blah blah blah"17:16
wxljust put a link in there17:16
lubot<tsimonq2> @wxl, BTW that poll sucks. Canonical hosting for this beast would be a nightmare...17:17
wxlthat's nice17:17
lubot<tsimonq2> So shush about the Altispeed plug :P17:18
wxlthe plug is no problem17:18
wxlthe implementation is dumb17:18
lubot<tsimonq2> Same thing with hosting of Phab. The Phab site is fine, but implementation on Canonical servers where nobody on the Lubuntu team can just SSH in and make fixes is dumb.17:20
lubot<tsimonq2> I would be totally fine with it if it was in like an LXD container and multiple members of the team had root SSH access.17:20
lubot<tsimonq2> But that's not the case.17:20
wxlyou're comparing apples and oranges17:20
lubot<tsimonq2> And afaict can't be the case.17:20
lubot<tsimonq2> Maybe. ;P17:21
wxl1. you're arguing against something on the basis of the potential of an unlikely edge case17:21
wxl2. the plug is poorly implemented because it fails to utilize a core technology of the web: hyperlinks. few people will bother copying and pasting.17:23
RedWolf[m]Question: are we able to install phab in the future Canonical server? In that case, can we move it without losing its contents?17:24
RedWolf[m]Ok. That was 2 questions 😊17:24
wxl1. doubtful if it isn't widely supported by canonical, thus the poll17:26
wxl2. yes17:26
wxl@VikingRedwolf why don't you change the support page to be called contacts?20:45
wxlalthough ideally we would have a redirect since people probably got used ot support20:45
lubot<VikingRedwolf> "links" is more likely20:45
wxlso maybe you should just split it20:45
wxlHOW TO GET SUPPORT20:45
wxlOTHER CONTACTS20:45
lubot<VikingRedwolf> so "links" then20:45
wxlor20:45
wxlleave support but move all the contacts to a different page20:45
wxl^^ probably the best idea20:46
lubot<VikingRedwolf> too many pages20:46
lubot<VikingRedwolf> let me try something and I'll show you20:46
wxltoo bad20:46
lubot<VikingRedwolf> actually, only AskUbuntu and #lubuntu are support things20:47
wxland the mailing list, no?20:47
lubot<VikingRedwolf> yup20:48
lubot<VikingRedwolf> I'll add the word SUPPORT to those three20:48
wxland actually we don't have lubuntu-devel mailing list on there20:48
lubot<VikingRedwolf> missing?20:48
wxlyep20:48
wxlthere's just "Mailing list"20:48
lubot<VikingRedwolf> you're right. I put only "users mailing list". please, send me the dev link.20:49
wxlhttps://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/lubuntu-devel20:50
lubot<VikingRedwolf> ta!20:50
lubot<VikingRedwolf> shit. now they're 13!!20:50
lubot<VikingRedwolf> http://lubuntu.me/links/21:04
lubot<tsimonq2> @VikingRedwolf, Redirect from Support21:06
lubot<VikingRedwolf> there's no support anymore21:06
wxldevel list says support21:06
lubot<VikingRedwolf> O.O21:07
tewardtimeToFixIt :P21:07
lubot<VikingRedwolf> yes, my bad21:07
lubot<VikingRedwolf> done!21:14
lubot<VikingRedwolf> now if you try lubuntu.me/support it goes to lubuntu.me/links21:16
lubotand if you try lubuntu.me/walter it goes to eDarling21:16
lubot<VikingRedwolf> .___.21:16
lubot<VikingRedwolf> the rest of possible 404 errors still show a sad Lenny 😀21:16
wxlso no lubuntu.me/yourmom?21:18
lubot<VikingRedwolf> no, simon's mum21:18
wxlooooh21:18
lynorian_nextI was asked in a bug report to attach an strace by agaida but am having trouble saving the output to be attached.21:19
wxl-o filename, lynorian_next21:20
lynorian_nextwxl thanks21:21
wxlnp21:21
lubot<VikingRedwolf> now, time to hang the balls. the shiny ones, for the tree, you know...21:22
agaidaand the strace was helpful22:33
agaidahttps://pb.5id.eu/DOJw -- erm, really22:41
agaidaif a program should read a configuration it it at least helpful if the configuration file is within the search path22:42
agaidawith the xdg-patch applied the standard locations could and should be used - for downstream that would be /etc/xdg/lxqt/$foo and /etc/$foo - there is no need to be creative with the xdg search pathes22:44
