[00:31] <Ben_____> hi
[02:10] <wxl> add yourself as a mentor to this task https://codein.withgoogle.com/dashboard/tasks/5680903613317120/
[02:10] <wxl> @tsimonq2: ^^^
[02:10] <wxl> also that one is for you to work on konrad11901 ^^^
[02:11] <tsimonq2> wxl: booom
[07:02] <heesen> elopio,could you please take a look at my task https://codein.withgoogle.com/dashboard/task-instances/5800996720607232/?sp-page=2
[07:30] <omairqazi> wxl as i wanted to reclaim the lubuntu upgrade task i abandoned previous ubuntu task. will that affect the quality of my work?
[07:40] <omairqazi> popey as i wanted to reclaim the lubuntu upgrade task i abandoned previous ubuntu task. will that affect the quality of my work?
[07:57] <Ojas17> hi
[08:04] <daniellimws> hi
[08:10] <popey> Good morning everyone
[08:16] <heesen> good morning
[08:16] <konrad11901> good morning :)
[08:17] <daniellimws> heesen: hey your pull request did not pass the static tests
[08:41] <m4sk1n> hi
[08:43] <m4sk1n> popey: so, any plans for the lxd translation task?
[08:51] <Vansh> Hii
[09:03] <popey> m4sk1n: yes, when i get a moment
[09:14] <omairqazi> hi can someone explain me this HINT: install in a virtual machine, take a snapshot, upgrade, then revert the snapshot and upgrade again to keep from having to install twice. why do we need to install twice
[09:15] <omairqazi> related to lubuntu upgrade task
[09:20] <konrad11901> Lubuntu Upgrade task asks you to do the whole "Upgrade Lubuntu" testsuite. It has four testcases, two of them ask you to upgrade from 16.04, and the other ones - from 17.10. Without creating the snapshots, you'll have to install the OS four times (2x16.04 and 2x17.10), while with snapshots you'll have to install Lubuntu twice (1x16.04 and 1x17.10).
[09:22] <konrad11901> For example, you can install the 16.04, make a snapshot, do an upgrade with update-manager, restore the snapshot and do an upgrade with an image
[09:23] <omairqazi> thanks man!
[09:25] <konrad11901> np :)
[11:54] <omairqazi> where can i get the lubuntu 18.04 image
[11:56] <omairqazi> please ignore
[12:09] <Teju> Hey
[12:10] <omairqazi> hi
[12:12] <Teju> Just saw a task on Google code in.
[12:12] <Nissaar> hi
[12:33] <daniellimws> heber, hi are you free?
[12:41] <heber> daniellimws, in a couple of minutes
[12:50] <daniellimws> heber, would it be better if I left a comment in the code in task website or just mention my concerns here?
[12:52] <rvcool855> hiiii every budy i am harsh and i am gci student
[12:52] <daniellimws> hi rvcool855
[12:54] <rvcool855> hey i want to know about GCI more can you all help me
[12:55] <daniellimws> sure, do you have any questions?
[13:18] <daniellimws> heber, may I know if there are any online tutorials or guides for autopilot? I can't seem to find any
[13:19] <daniellimws> there is a weird problem with the tests, everything does not work, unless the search button is clicked
[13:19] <daniellimws> i'm thinking that the app may not have been "ready" until someone clicks onto it
[13:19] <daniellimws> what do you think?
[13:23] <rkap> Hi!
[13:24] <daniellimws> Hi
[13:25] <heber> daniellimws, it is ok to comment here and in the task as well. I will read your comments now.
[13:26] <daniellimws> ok thanks
[13:27] <heber> daniellimws, regarding the tutorial. In autopilot repo you can find some tutorials in "docs" folder
[13:36] <rithvikdhanapal> HI
[13:36] <m4sk1n> these tutorials are more for Qt, not gtk :/
[13:37] <daniellimws> m4sk1n: which are you referring to?
[13:37] <daniellimws> the autopilot docs?
[13:38] <daniellimws> right they are for Qt
[13:42] <m4sk1n> tutorial is only about testing Qt app
[13:42] <daniellimws> m4sk1n: yea but most concepts are actually similar
[13:42] <m4sk1n> testing gtk apps isn’t very different, but there should be some good reference
[13:43] <m4sk1n> is it idea for another task? :D
[13:43] <daniellimws> haha would be something good to have
[13:45] <m4sk1n> for example, I don’t know how to check for styles
[13:54] <daniellimws> heber, is there anyway to check whether an object is "seen" on the screen
[13:54] <daniellimws> somehow the "visible" property is always true even if the item is not there
[13:57] <heber> daniellimws, for sure there is any property that changes when it is seen in the screen
[14:02] <daniellimws> heber, really can't find any :(
[14:11] <heber> daniellimws, which element is that?
[14:11] <daniellimws> heber, the gtkflowbox for categories
[14:12] <daniellimws> heber, can't seem to find a differentiating property for the category items when the arrow button is clicked
[14:12] <daniellimws> if I check for visible=True, then it will also be a pass, not sure if that will be a false positive
[14:32] <daniellimws> heber, are you able to find a property that works?
[14:32] <heber> daniellimws, let me try. The problem is when you expand the categories to see more?
[14:33] <daniellimws> heber, yes, for both when it is expanded or not, the "visible" property is still true
[14:52] <daniellimws> heber, for this task, is it ok if I don't convert every single manual test to automated ones?
[14:53] <daniellimws> feel that I've spent too long on this, wanna move on to other tasks..
[15:05] <Faraaz> Hi I just claimed the read tutorial task
[15:45] <daniellimws> heber, hi I've made a merge request and submitted the task on code in
[16:02] <cpt_n3mo> wow
[16:02] <cpt_n3mo> hello anyone
[16:02] <daniellimws> hello
[16:03] <cpt_n3mo> @balloons
[16:45] <nick-obrien> Hello elopio, kyrofa, sergiusens, popey and flexiondotorg! I'm Nick and I'm working on the "Package and publish your first nodejs snap" on google code in
[16:45] <kyrofa> Hey there nick-obrien, welcome!
[16:45] <nick-obrien> Thank you!
[16:45] <elopio> nick-obrien: hello!
[16:45] <elopio> nick-obrien: do you want me to recommend a nice one to start?
[16:45] <nick-obrien> Yes please
[16:48] <elopio> nick-obrien: how about https://github.com/marionebl/svg-term-cli ?
[16:49] <nick-obrien> That looks really interesting. I'll give it a try!
[16:52] <elopio> thanks nick-obrien, let us know if you have any questions
[16:53] <balloons> wxl, looks like the lubuntu test tracker task is much better written than the others. Could we make them all read nicely?
[16:54] <nick-obrien> Thank you
[17:02] <daniellimws> elopio, kyrofa: I remember some time ago, there was a task about snapcraft stats
[17:03] <omairqazi> hi
[17:03] <daniellimws> if someone claimed it, may we know the repo that has it?
[17:03] <elopio> daniellimws: https://github.com/elopio/random-scripts/pull/1
[17:03] <elopio> omairqazi: hello
[17:04] <omairqazi> how are you elopio
[17:04] <omairqazi> happy new year
[17:05] <elopio> happy new year omairqazi. I'm good, thank you. Are you starting to contribute with ubuntu?
[17:06] <omairqazi> elopio yes
[17:06] <elopio> omairqazi: welcome! Here you will find other people on the same journey. Feel free to leave any question you might have.
[17:06] <omairqazi> elopio chatting you for the first time
[17:07] <omairqazi> elopio well i think i am old now but new to you
[17:07] <omairqazi> i am here before 20 december
[17:07] <elopio> ah, yes, I was away for a couple of weeks.
[17:08] <daniellimws> elopio: is it this one? https://github.com/DeniskaMazur/SnapGatherer
[17:09] <elopio> daniellimws: yup
[17:09] <omairqazi> elopio i heard about you while i was completing the publish python snap and i wanted you to transfer my snap name
[17:10] <elopio> omairqazi: for that, you have to talk to popey or flexiondotorg, they are the admins of snapcrafters.
[17:10] <omairqazi> ok
[17:10]  * popey looks up
[17:10] <popey> no, transferring names is done via the forum
[17:10] <wxl> balloons: i did ping people like a million times in here and on the hub to alert them of that but yeah sure i can do it :/ XD
[17:11] <omairqazi> oh guys i did not notice i am in the current leaders. well quantity<quality
[17:11] <omairqazi> does someone know when balloons comes online
[17:12] <omairqazi> never saw him here
[17:12] <daniellimws> omairqazi: balloons was here 30 mins ago
[17:12] <elopio> popey: well, the first step is to ask you to fork the repo
[17:12] <popey> well, no.
[17:12] <elopio> I will propose a small change on the checklist to mention that it has to be done through the forum
[17:12] <popey> ask the store to transfer and then we can
[17:13] <popey> no point us forking when we can't push to the store because we dont own the snap
[17:14] <daniellimws> elopio: what does the snapcraft stats script do exactly? I tried to run main.py but just got stuck at Extracting repository urls
[17:14] <m4sk1n> gci-leaders.netlify.com everyone knows about this nice leaderboard?
[17:15] <daniellimws> yea
[17:15] <daniellimws> and it now even links to some people's github
[17:15] <elopio> daniellimws: the idea is to count the number of features being used by snapcraft.yaml files in github.
[17:15] <wxl> wow lots of familiar names up there :)
[17:16] <daniellimws> number of features?
[17:16] <omairqazi> m4skln i know i am also there :)
[17:16] <m4sk1n> omairqazi: I see
[17:17] <elopio> daniellimws: yes, how many snaps use a git source, for example. How many use a bazaar source, how many use a version-script, how many use each of the plugins
[17:18] <m4sk1n> but maybe some of us only know about the official one
[17:18] <omairqazi> maybe
[17:20] <daniellimws> elopio: oh, so it literally searches through every repo in github that has a snapcraft.yaml?
[17:21] <elopio> popey: https://github.com/snapcrafters/fork-and-rename-me/pull/5/files what do you think?
[17:21] <elopio> daniellimws: only the ones that have a successful build in build.snapcraft.io
[17:23] <daniellimws> oh ok that's quite cool
[17:24] <daniellimws> elopio: currently are there any more plans for snapcraft tasks? seems to be running out already
[17:24] <omairqazi> can i discuss a lubuntu problem with someone here?
[17:24] <elopio> daniellimws: not really, we have had our hands full reviewing the tasks.
[17:25] <elopio> I don't think we can handle more. But after the contest ends, we can think of following up the mentorships in case you are interested.
[17:25] <wxl> omairqazi: fire away or there's always #lubuntu-devel
[17:25] <elopio> we can define a training path with you, to focus on the things that you would like to learn.
[17:26] <daniellimws> ok in that case at the meantime, I'll try to expose myself to other things
[17:26] <daniellimws> elopio: that'll be great, thanks
[17:26] <omairqazi> elopio: i was talking about this. https://github.com/omairqazi/omairqazi-instantnews my task is already approved as kyrofa told me just to release my snap to stable
[17:27] <elopio> daniellimws: there are many more tasks in the ubuntu org, and there are also many more free software orgs in need of contributions :)
[17:27] <daniellimws> any ideas when will didrocks be back?
[17:28] <elopio> omairqazi: nice. I agree with kyrofa that the snap should be called just instantnews, no need to prefix it.
[17:29] <daniellimws> would like to try out ubuntu desktop tasks while theres still some time left
[17:29] <popey> +1, don't prefix snap names
[17:29] <popey> we only end up having to re-register and rename them
[17:29] <elopio> omairqazi: and I didn't like that you changed the README template, it would be a lot easier for snapcrafters to contribute if it follows the same structure.
[17:30] <omairqazi> ya elopio: popey filed a bug as i was not able to register snap name instantnews
[17:30] <omairqazi> elopio: so i didn't need to change the README
[17:31] <daniellimws> kenvandine: hi, may I know more about this https://codein.withgoogle.com/tasks/5411356859695104/?sp-organization=5133577048031232&sp-is_beginner=False is there any relevant repo to apply to patch onto?
[17:31] <elopio> daniellimws: according to the calendar, didrocks is already back. Probably, catching up with tons of emails and requests but if you write to him, he should answer soon.
[17:31] <daniellimws> elopio: ok thanks, I'll ask when my current task gets approved
[17:34] <omairqazi> elopio: so what should i do in the README now. remove the checkmarks?
[17:34] <elopio> omairqazi: your REAMDE should look like this one: https://github.com/snapcrafters/offlineimap
[17:35] <elopio> you see that the screenshot is not at the bottom, and there's a section called snapcrafters that is not in yours
[17:35] <elopio> omairqazi: you can just check the differences between yours and this one: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/snapcrafters/offlineimap/master/README.md
[17:36] <omairqazi> elopio: thanks!!
[17:36] <daniellimws> elopio: if you are free now, can you have a look at this? https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/python-snap-fails-to-import-module/3237
[17:36] <daniellimws> not urgent though
[17:38] <omairqazi> wxl: please take a look at my submission https://codein.withgoogle.com/dashboard/task-instances/5390375717961728/
[17:38] <omairqazi> elopio: why python snaps does not work in ubuntu 17.10
[17:40] <popey> We should make all snap tasks very clear they should be done on 16.04 IMO
[17:41] <elopio> daniellimws: I will try to check it later today, but it might be related to this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/snapcraft/+bug/1712634
[17:41] <Accelerator> popey: You made it clear enough
[17:42] <daniellimws> omairqazi: it's because snapcraft uses a different version of glibc than the host machine, I think, correct me if I'm wrong
[17:43] <daniellimws> elopio: ok thanks
[17:43] <omairqazi> Accelerator: I know. I was just asking why
[17:44] <daniellimws> omairqazi: have you tried snapcraft cleanbuild before?
[17:44] <daniellimws> still possible to package python snaps on 17.10 if you use that
[17:45] <daniellimws> perhaps not as good as doing it on 16.04, as you need to download bunch of stuff
[17:45] <omairqazi> someone suggested me but i thought it would be better to use 16.04 for now
[17:45] <omairqazi> yes it takes a long tim
[17:45] <omairqazi> time
[17:45] <omairqazi> if i abandon some task will that affect the quality of my work
[17:46] <daniellimws> I'm not sure, if you abandon, won't the quality be 0?
[17:48] <elopio> popey: I updated the package and publish tasks to mention 16.04
[17:48] <popey> yay
[17:48] <popey> thanks
[17:50] <omairqazi> elopio: is this correct? https://github.com/omairqazi/omairqazi-instantnews/blob/master/README.md
[17:52] <omairqazi> hi popey fork my repo (https://github.com/omairqazi/omairqazi-instantnews) into github.com/snapcrafters, transfer the snap name (omairqazi-instantnews) to snapcrafters, and configure the repo for automatic publishing into edge on commit
[17:52] <popey> omairqazi: as I mentioned earlier, transferring the name requires a post in the store category on the forum
[17:53] <omairqazi> ok popey
[17:53] <popey> also
[17:53] <popey> https://github.com/omairqazi/omairqazi-instantnews/blob/master/snap/snapcraft.yaml
[17:53] <elopio> omairqazi: yes, that looks better. You can remove the [ ] from the name of the snap. And for some reason, all your text is bold. You might have left an open tag or something.
[17:53] <popey> I would register instantnews and change the yaml so it isn't prefixed with your name
[17:53] <omairqazi> thanks popey
[17:54] <omairqazi> if i reclaim an abandoned will that affect the quality
[17:54] <elopio> omairqazi: you are missing the text "This is the snap for instantnews, "
[17:54] <omairqazi> cause lubuntu upgrade task was not working before
[17:54] <omairqazi> ok elopio
[17:55] <daniellimws> omairqazi: i think if your task is done properly generally the quality should be there right?
[17:55] <daniellimws> even though you abandonned it before
[17:55] <omairqazi> ok thanks
[17:55] <omairqazi> yay
[17:56] <elopio> omairqazi: newsapi.org should be a link. And on the snapcraft.yaml, I don't understand why you chose version: 2.0.0.
[17:57] <elopio> omairqazi: you could use version: '1.2.4' and on the part, source-commit: de233b38a7ed8a6ed440e1700f02c1ef65f581a7
[17:57] <omairqazi> thank you very much elopio
[17:58] <elopio> thanks to you omairqazi
[18:03] <omairqazi> elopio: how is it now? https://github.com/omairqazi/omairqazi-instantnews The rest i will do tomorrow(IST)
[18:04] <elopio> omairqazi: there is an <"/p> in there, but it's looking good
[18:05] <omairqazi> elopio: how is it now? https://github.com/omairqazi/omairqazi-instantnews
[18:07] <elopio> looks good to me.
[18:07] <omairqazi> thanks
[18:07] <omairqazi> thanks everyone! bye! will come tomorrow
[18:08] <daniellimws> bye
[18:08] <omairqazi> for now i will sleep
[21:46] <konrad11901> Does anyone know if Launchpad has some technical problems? I can't confirm any bug (timeout error) :/
[21:49] <konrad11901> nevermind
[22:00] <m4sk1n> it's pretty common here
[22:04] <konrad11901> wxl: are you there?
[22:06] <konrad11901> or tsimonq2?
[22:07] <tsimonq2> konrad11901: yo
[22:08] <tsimonq2> Holy heck, I gotta pick up wxl's slack here :P
[22:08] <tsimonq2> konrad11901: Reviewing
[22:08] <konrad11901> oh umm
[22:08] <konrad11901> what are you reviewing?
[22:09] <tsimonq2> Oh
[22:10]  * tsimonq2 just sort of assumed things needed reviewing and checked the dashboard only to find four things ready
[22:10] <tsimonq2> konrad11901: Anyways, what's up? :)
[22:10] <konrad11901> :D
[22:10] <konrad11901> one question
[22:10] <konrad11901> about the "Imrpove Lubuntu bug reports" task
[22:10] <tsimonq2> Yea
[22:10] <konrad11901> should I do something like I did here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lxtask/+bug/1722901?
[22:11] <konrad11901> I just want to be sure if I'm doing this task as I should before moving to other bugs :)
[22:12] <tsimonq2> So, the point of that task is to get three bugs ready to be worked on.
[22:12] <konrad11901> yes
[22:12] <tsimonq2> (By whatever means, through providing more info, editing descriptions, etc.)
[22:12] <tsimonq2> But I think that counts for one, yeah.
[22:13] <tsimonq2> (Because you're helping be a lot more specific with the description.)
[22:13] <konrad11901> ok, thanks a lot :)
[22:13] <tsimonq2> Thank YOU for working on the task and helping to make Ubuntu better. ;)
[22:20] <wxl> sorry busy at work konrad11901. but did you notice your bug about the release upgrader is now assigned? should be fixed soon :)
[22:23] <konrad11901> yes, I noticed it
[22:23] <konrad11901> :)
[23:56] <Abhi_> Hi, I have just started. So I installed ubuntu-desktop today and I am trying to get familiar with it.
