[00:01] <twb> Sigh.  So if you have a 1GB server and unattended upgrades, and ubuntu kernels weigh even more than Debian ones (128MB each), you use up a quarter of your disk in a month :-/
[01:25] <zul> adam_g: you are evil
[01:28] <zul> adam_g: while you are still here can you have a look at http://paste.ubuntu.com/775687/
[01:31] <adam_g> zul: one sec
[01:39] <adam_g> zul: its been so long since ive messed with that  stuff. isn't the userspace daemon required by the initiator utliities?
[01:41] <zul> no
[01:41] <zul> i dont think so
[01:41] <adam_g> ah, i remember now.. iscsid is only used to establish preconfigured sessions
[01:44] <adam_g> zul: that diff looks good as long as its been tested.  im curious to know if the tgt off-by-one error you guys were looking at was caused by a split brain between nova and iscsiadm?
[01:45] <zul> adam_g: yeah basically iscsadm wanting one thing while tgtadm wanting another
[01:45] <zul> but yeah that patch has been tested
[01:46] <adam_g> zul: has it been tested after removing iscsid? what i meant was, iscsid restablishing a connection, bumping the lun index before nova had chance
[01:47] <zul> adam_g: ill test tomorrow first thing its getting late here
[01:48] <adam_g> cool
[04:53] <kaushal> Hi
[04:53] <kaushal> is there a way to know list of modules loaded or enabled in apache2 using CLI
[04:54] <kaushal> I can see it in /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/
[04:54] <kaushal> Server version: Apache/2.2.14 (Ubuntu)
[04:55] <kaushal> on 10.04 LTS
[05:11] <shauno> kaushal: that's essentially it.  or "apache2ctl -M"
[05:12] <kaushal> shauno: thanks
[05:13] <kaushal> shauno: what is static vs shared module ?
[05:14] <shauno> I believe static are built-in at compile-time, shared are loadable modules you'll find in mods-available / mods-enabled
[05:18] <kaushal> oh ok
[05:18] <kaushal> Thanks shauno
[08:39] <osmosis> anyone know how to troubleshoot a failing domain resolution?
[08:39] <osmosis> $ host btcnearme.com
[08:39] <osmosis> Host btcnearme.com not found: 1(FORMERR)
[09:04] <koolhead11> hi all
[10:57] <philipballew> where would i look in my logs to see if someone was messing with my server? or trying to gain access to it
[11:01] <drt24> philipballew: /var/log/auth.log, in general many automated bots will be trying to gain access
[11:02] <drt24> fail2ban will ban them after a few trys if you have that installed.
[11:02] <philipballew> alright, im looking now. Yeah. I might wanna change ssh from 22 sometime
[11:02] <drt24> philipballew: changing the port won't really add much security, disabling password based ssh and using key based instead and using fail2ban will provide much better security than changing the prot
[11:03] <philipballew> alright. I need to just set up rsa keys again.
[11:03] <philipballew> that isnt hard at all
[11:03] <drt24> indeed
[11:04] <philipballew> Thank you for the help
[11:23] <angelete2> hi
[11:24] <angelete2> i'm trying to install server 10.04 from a usb stick
[11:25] <angelete2> but it breaks because "can't mount cd drive"
[11:25] <angelete2> what can i do?
[11:29] <drt24> angelete2: is this breaking in the BIOS or later? if in the bios is the boot order set to boot from USB before CD?
[11:29] <angelete2> BIOS boot order is only from USB
[11:29] <angelete2> it has no cd drive
[11:30] <angelete2> installation begins, but it tries to mount cd, so it fails
[11:30] <uksysadmin> angelete2, I've experience in the past that some USB sticks simply aren't bootable
[11:30] <angelete2> i've installed on same server with same usbs stick ubuntu 11.04
[11:30] <angelete2> but i need to downgrade it
[11:41] <ikonia> angelete2: down grade what ?
[11:42] <angelete2> ubuntu server
[11:55] <philipballew> angelete2, try installing from a cd
[13:52] <zul> good morning
[14:57] <alex88> hi guys, i'm trying to use ovh failover ip, actually putting ip in browser i see the sites on the server, i need to route that ip to a vm, how can i do that?
[14:58] <alex88> should i add before an interface alias?
[15:23] <zul> hallyn: around?
[15:24] <hallyn> zul: yup
[15:24] <hallyn> (but not for long)
[15:24] <zul> hallyn: is it cool to use lxc-attach with libvirt if you want to attach a block device to a lxc container
[15:25] <hallyn> zul: I haven't looked at the blockdev support in libvirt-lxc at all
[15:25] <hallyn> zul: but i shoudl think so
[15:25] <zul> im thinking about getting euca-attach-volume to work
[15:25] <dkn> can i decrypt an lvm in a script? i want to put a drive in, have the UUID trigger a script that will load the vg, load the lvm, decrypt the lvm, mount, and start a program
[15:25] <zul> hallyn: the attach device stuff is non-existant in libvirt-lxc
[15:26] <hallyn> well you could always use qemu-nbd and copy the device nodes for it into the container
[15:27] <hallyn> (and add a cgroup whitelist entry)
[15:28] <zul> hallyn: ooh....thats a good idea
[15:28] <hallyn> for persistent libvirt vms that'd be harder, but for one-time euca-attach...
[15:31] <zul> hallyn: yeah
[15:31] <zul> thanks!
[15:32] <hallyn> np, cool, can't wait to see it now :)
[15:33] <SpamapS> dkn: you could probably do that with udev rules
[15:33] <dkn> ya?
[15:34] <hallyn> decrypt the lvm in what way?
[15:34] <hallyn> is it dmcrypted?
[15:37] <dkn> i don't recall the exact method, i actually cheat and use the GUI disk utility and just press "unlock volume" since it remembers the passphrase, then the device shows up in /dev/mapper/HERE
[15:41] <dkn> basically, right now i 1.vgimport -a 2.lvchange -a y /dev/mapper/HERE 3.unlock 4. mount /dev/mapper/udisks-luks-uuid-yada /mnt/HERE
[15:42] <dkn> once i'm done with the drive ~1hr i do the reverse to take it out and put in the next one, i'd just like to have some scripts to do it, idealy they'd run when i pop the drive in
[15:49] <hallyn> like SpamapS said, you can do that from a udev script.  Take a look under /lib/udev/rules.d and /etc/udev/rules.d for examples
[15:51] <dkn> :) thanks
[16:06] <PedroGomes> Hi, semi-noob here. I' seeing a lot info about Ubuntu thin clients booting trough PXE, but what I aiming for is to boot a Ubuntu server image from a remote pre configured image in a way similar to a preseed installation.
[16:07] <PedroGomes> any way to do this
[16:18] <TeTeT> PedroGomes: works via pxe as well, think help.ubuntu.com contains some pages on it
[16:20] <PedroGomes> TeTeT: can have, for example, a installed and configured image that as software X, Y and Z and you can boot it ate the same time on machine 1,2,3 and 4 ?
[16:20] <PedroGomes> *can I have
[16:24] <SpamapS> PedroGomes: there's a suite of tools in Ubuntu 11.04 and 11.10 called "Ubuntu Orchestra" that help setting up netboot automated installations
[16:25] <SpamapS> PedroGomes: It centers a lot around 'cobbler', which has power control and pxe/dhcp configuration built in.
[16:25] <PedroGomes> SpamapS: already have foreman doing that…
[16:26] <PedroGomes> SpamapS: looking for a direct network boot, not a installation
[16:31] <PedroGomes> btw, can someone find the link to download the tftp config files for Ubuntu, my google skills are not helping me....
[16:31] <Tribaal> Hi folks, I have a litle question regarding vmbuilder - is this the right place to ask?
[16:37] <SpamapS> PedroGomes: OH
[16:37] <SpamapS> PedroGomes: you may want to look at LTSP
[16:37] <SpamapS> PedroGomes: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP
[16:42] <PedroGomes> SpamapS: mhh thanks, but isn't LTSP for thin clients only?, making every client depend on a single server. I'm looking for something where I can download the installed image from the server and boot it like it was a installed natively.
[16:44] <smoser> anyone want to do a quick merge proposal?
[16:44] <smoser> https://code.launchpad.net/~smoser/ubuntu/precise/rsyslog/lp905419/+merge/86429
[16:44] <PedroGomes> SpamapS: truth is that I feel like chasing a ghost, I remember seeing a similar systems years ago "Rembo", but the license fees…
[16:45] <SpamapS> PedroGomes: that sounds a lot like how cloud computing works
[16:46] <SpamapS> smoser: I'll take a look
[16:46] <PedroGomes> SpamapS: yep I have a OpenStack installation also, but I was looking for a bare metal solution
[16:51] <SpamapS> smoser: +1'd
[16:52] <Vagisil> anyone here ever built an SFTP server on 10.10?  I'm rather new to ubuntu server and need some documentation
[17:03] <SpamapS> PedroGomes: openstack is looking at integrating cobbler as a bare metal option
[17:03] <SpamapS> PedroGomes: though its more for things like ARM that have no good virtualization support
[17:04] <PedroGomes> SpamapS: guided install and puppet was enough for me, but people are pressing me to find a way to deploy installed images
[17:05] <PedroGomes> SpamapS: truth is, that systems existed, I just cant find something actual or open source
[17:06] <SpamapS> PedroGomes: whats so bad about sticking kvm between the metal and the installed image?
[17:08] <smoser> PedroGomes, sorry to jump in, but there is clonezilla and partition image that are (for lack of a better term) "ghost clones"
[17:08] <PedroGomes> SpamapS: some people want the system to deploy images where they can test Xen appliances and such
[17:09] <PedroGomes> SpamapS: its a cluster for distributed system experiments, some people want Vms other want bare metal….
[17:09] <smoser> there is nothing in cobbler that will do "p2p". those solutions may be a faster than cobbler preseed installs, but cobbler could do what you want.
[17:09] <smoser> ie, you could create preseed files for each of your "images", then when you install that fully automated preseed the end result is the same.
[17:12] <PedroGomes> smoser: I have that, not trough cobbler but foreman, but I have people that want more… thanks anyway
[17:13] <SpamapS> PedroGomes: so a pre-seeded install takes, what, 10 minutes at worst? I bet a pre-installed image laying down on disk will take 5.
[17:14] <SpamapS> PedroGomes: for test iteration, the openstack QA guys did something clever with LVM snapshots and kexec() that is pretty cool... you might want to talk to them.
[17:14] <jhobbs_> preinstalled image you can multicast serve though ;)
[17:15] <PedroGomes> SpamapS: the question is not time, its the personal configuration that you can achieve easily with personal images,
[17:15] <PedroGomes> SpamapS: ok I will ask there
[17:15] <PedroGomes> jhobbs: ah?
[17:18] <SpamapS> PedroGomes: um, you can get that "personal" configuration easily with an install too.
[17:19] <SpamapS> PedroGomes: you may not have noticed, but cloud-init works with local seed data now. :)
[17:19] <SpamapS> PedroGomes: or you're saying they want golden-image support.
[17:19] <SpamapS> PedroGomes: another option is system-imager/sisuite
[17:19] <SpamapS> PedroGomes: though I don't know how  well maintained that is.
[17:19] <PedroGomes> SpamapS: som	ething like that
[17:20] <PedroGomes> SpamapS: another thing to check then
[17:23] <Daviey> zul: thanks for driving the meeting, that was perfect.
[17:23] <zul> Daviey: no worries
[17:23] <SpamapS> PedroGomes: I've used sisuite in the past, and it was really quite good actually.
[17:23] <SpamapS> We had a meeting? cripes.
[17:24]  * SpamapS wonders if its worth requesting it be moved back 1 hour for DST :-P
[17:24] <Daviey> SpamapS: yeah, it's that weekly thing we do; whilst you slack off. :)
[17:24] <SpamapS> Daviey: I cherish every minute of slack off time you all provide me, thx. :)
[17:25] <Daviey> heh
[17:25] <Daviey> SpamapS: I wouldn't object to bumping it forward 1hr, during DST.
[17:25] <zul> that creates a conflict for me
[17:26] <Daviey> zul: conflict you say?  I think we need to turn the conflict into a death match with SpamapS.
[17:27] <zul> obviously i would win
[17:27] <Daviey> winner gets the time of their choice.
[17:27] <Daviey> loser gets to rest.
[17:28] <Daviey> adam_g: How are the charms looking for openstack?
[17:28] <SpamapS> I'm fine with it being at 0800 PDT .. I just never seem to be at my keyboard at that time, so I miss the pop-up reminder and then get distracted otherwise. :p
[17:29] <adam_g> Daviey: keystones working great, still cracking on horizon
[17:33] <mainerror> bug 893926
[17:33] <mainerror> Is here someone that can answer my question in the bug comment?
[17:34] <adam_g> Daviey: FYI bug #905286 is currently making things a bit awkward to get installed via orchestra without manually work
[17:37] <Daviey> mainerror: hey
[17:37] <Daviey> adam_g: Good to hear, have you dicussed the issue with the juju team?
[17:38] <Daviey> ah, it's a cobbler bug?
[17:38] <adam_g> Daviey: yes
[17:39] <mainerror> Hello Daviey.
[17:39] <SpamapS> mainerror: basically the packages are "branded" as "Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud" or "UEC" .. and they should just be called "Eucalyptus" now.
[17:39] <Daviey> mainerror: replied
[17:40] <mainerror> Awesome, thanks.
[17:40] <mainerror> That should be an easy fix.
[17:40] <Daviey> mainerror: Something you fancy driving?
[17:41] <koolhead17> hoi all
[17:41] <mainerror> Daviey: I'm sorry?
[17:42] <Daviey> mainerror: If it's something you want to work on.. There is a uec branding patch which can be dropped (should remove the css)... and there are other goodies in debian/* which can be dropped.  If you want any pointers, please feel free to ask!
[17:44] <mainerror> Well I have already fetched what is in the repository and greped for "UEC" and "Ubuntu Enterprise Cloud" so find out which files I should look at but if you have more accurate information for me it would be great. :)
[17:44] <Daviey> SpamapS: have you seen 905286?
[17:45] <Daviey> mainerror: Have you used quilt before?
[17:46] <Daviey> mainerror: If you have used quilt and bzr before, if you wanted to propose a branch with a first scratch - we can walk through what is left to go?
[17:47] <mainerror> I have used bzr before, although not to fix a bug- I have not heard of quilt yet.
[17:52] <Daviey> mainerror: Maybe this is of help, http://developer.ubuntu.com/packaging/html/patches-to-packages.html
[17:52] <Daviey> mainerror: quilt and bzr make for really messy changesets, but ho hum. :)
[17:52] <Daviey> mainerror: If you do, /something/ - we'll work through it to get it sorted :)
[17:54] <mainerror> Right. I'll read through that and start fixing the files up then I'll get back to you. :)
[17:55] <mainerror> Should I mark the bug as "In Progress" and assign it to me?
[17:58] <Daviey> mainerror: sounds great :)
[17:59] <Daviey> mainerror: in debian/* there are some files which refer to avahi, they can also go. :)
[18:14] <mainerror> Daviey: There are source files that contain "uec" in their name, like "uec_component_listener.c" for example. Do we want to change the file names too?
[18:34] <SpamapS> Daviey: yeah I thought fwereade_ was workign on it
[18:36] <fwereade_> SpamapS, Daviey: I've only had a chance to give it a short look I'm afraid, I've been trying to get the groundwork for the machine constraints feature down
[18:37] <SpamapS> I suspect a trivial workaround might be in order. :P
[18:37] <fwereade_> SpamapS, Daviey: and I don't really know anything yet: *something* in between CobblerClient and cobbler itself is doing something different with xmlrpc
[18:38] <fwereade_> SpamapS, I think it might be a little trickier... if the format we get nested dicts in has changed, it seems reasonable to suspect that the send format has changed too
[18:38] <fwereade_> SpamapS, which then means we need to be able to characterise the critical difference between environments it shows up in and ones it didn't
[18:39] <fwereade_> SpamapS, I can imagine a dirty workaround, but I'm not sure I could get one merged :/
[19:01] <elb0w> how do I update repos from shell?
[19:02] <elb0w> nvm apt-get update did it
[20:31] <mainerror> Daviey: There is quite a lot of avahi stuff going on in debian/*
[21:27] <mustafa> I am having a problem with a PHP project which connects to mysql database, the site gives me error that the database is down. While it worked flawlessly on windows machine running xamp. Any ideas?
[21:27] <mainerror> Is the database down?
[21:28] <mustafa> However normal PHP files, which  doesn't use mysql databases work fine.
[21:29] <mustafa> mysql-server is running. And I created the database through phpmyadmin. When I tried using mysql-admin -h host_ip I got an error that mysql couldn't read hostname.
[21:30] <EvilResistance> mustafa:  where is the mysql-server instance?  on a windows machine or a linux machine?
[21:30] <EvilResistance> ...
[21:30] <EvilResistance> i know your current issue
[21:31] <mustafa> Linux, Ubuntu.
 EvilResistance: No, it was already setup. I did change the bind-address to localhost. I'll check the skip-networking now.
[21:31] <EvilResistance> if its only binding to localhost it'll only accept connections from itself
[21:31] <mustafa> On the windows machine it was already setup. But I'm trying now to configure it on my Ubuntu machine.
[21:32] <EvilResistance> mustafa:  you need to make sure skip-networking is commented out or removed in the conf file
[21:32] <mainerror> Uh? Did I miss that line somehow?
[21:32] <EvilResistance> mainerror:  he's violating the guidelines...
[21:32] <EvilResistance> getting help in #Ubuntu and here
[21:32] <EvilResistance> i'm moving my support for him to here ;P
[21:32] <mainerror> Oh!
[21:33] <mustafa> EvilResistance: there is a comment "Instead of skip-networking the default is now to listen only on localhost"
[21:33] <EvilResistance> then tell it to not listen on localhost
[21:33] <EvilResistance> rather listen on your IP
[21:34] <EvilResistance> whatever your system's IP might be
[21:34] <mustafa> EvilResistance: no uncommented #skip-networking
[21:34] <EvilResistance> mustafa:  read my last 3 messages
[21:34] <mustafa> EvilResistance: which is <IP_ADDRESS> right?
[21:34]  * EvilResistance facedesks
[21:34] <EvilResistance> mustafa:  no
[21:34] <EvilResistance> mustafa:  <IP_ADDRESS> is the *localhost*
[21:34] <EvilResistance> if you're on a router, it'd be something like <IP_ADDRESS> or something
[21:35] <EvilResistance> or if its directly internet facing, the public IP (which you should know if its internet facing)
[21:35] <mustafa> EvilResistance: Ah <IP_ADDRESS>
[21:35] <EvilResistance> use that for now then
[21:35] <EvilResistance> note that you might run into some occasional breakage if you eventually want this to be useable on the internet
[21:36] <mustafa> EvilResistance: OK, I have changed the bind-address. Then restarted mysql and apache and still the error is there.
[21:38] <mustafa> I installed the apache2, php5, mysql-cleint then mysql-server and finally the phpmyadmin. All using apt-get. I'll really appreciate your help, I have a discussion tomorrow at college on this project using my laptop.
[21:43] <mustafa> EvilResistance: Are you still there?
[21:44] <EvilResistance> nope, kinda busy atm
[21:44] <EvilResistance> dealing with some abuse@ emails for my group
[21:44] <mustafa> Take your time, I'll be waitting :)
[21:50] <drt24> mustafa: so if you try to access mysql from the command line on the box which php is running on, can you?
[21:56] <mustafa> drt24: How can I know?
[21:58] <drt24> run the "mysql" command with the relevant options and see if it works, if not change things until it does, then the configuration specified by the opitions to mysql should also work from php using the relevant php function
[22:01] <mustafa> drt24: I am little bit lost. The server is running, but when I use mysql-admin -h host_ip I get that error "Could not connect to host '<IP_ADDRESS>'.
[22:01] <mustafa> MySQL Error Nr. 1130
[22:01] <mustafa> And that the host isn't allowed to connect to mysql-server
[22:02] <drt24> so firewalls or similar?
[22:02] <mustafa> Not that I know of, I'm running Ubuntu 11.10 Desktop edition.
[22:02] <drt24> or the mysql-server is not listening correctly?
[22:03] <drt24> sorry, going to sleep now.
[22:04] <mustafa> OK, if you could wait little more 5 min. I'll appreciate it I a project discussion tomorrow at college and I have been searching and asking for 6 hours now with no luck.
[22:04] <mustafa> If not I'll understand..
[22:07] <alex_joni> mustafa: so you have 2 pc's?
[22:08] <alex_joni> or is everything on one pc?
[22:12] <mustafa> alex_joni: One PC. I tried it earlier today on a friends PC. Just moved the site files to the apropriate folder and imported the database from phpmyadmin
[22:14] <mustafa> alex_joni: I am using a custom path for enabled sites if that helps.
[22:52] <koolhead17> in /etc/mysqlmy.cnf  bind-address            = <IP_ADDRESS> would have solved it
[22:52] <koolhead17>
[22:53] <TheEvilPhoenix> true, but that would have bound it to * basically, no?
[22:56] <koolhead17> well as far as i understand this enables the server accept connection from any external host
[23:48] <wmp> hello
[23:48] <wmp> i use ubuntu server 10.04 and i have route configured on ip command, how to save this and restore on boot?
[23:49] <wmp> i havent in 10.04 ip route save/restore


[00:18] <ScottK> Did we discuss switching from kcm-touchpad to synaptiks?
[00:22] <JontheEchidna> Not at UDS, but it would be a good idea to do so
[00:22] <JontheEchidna> It needs a few tweaks, though
[00:23] <JontheEchidna> Like currently its daemon throws a notification if the configured system doesn't have a touchpad, which would be all non-laptops
[00:23] <JontheEchidna> But overall the configuration module is more featureful and the code is more maintainable
[00:32] <ScottK> JontheEchidna: Sounds like a good thing to talk to upstream about.
[03:29] <maco> haha wow knotify4 is using 9999% CPU!  O_o
[03:36] <imbrandon> fun
[08:19] <ofirk> Why we don't refer to the i386 cd as a 32bit version?
[08:19] <ofirk> http://www.kubuntu.org/getkubuntu/download
[08:20] <tsimpson> what do you mean?
[08:26] <ofirk> The download page lists two type of CDs, one is i386 and the other is 64bit
[08:27] <ofirk> I am asking, why the i386 version isn't referred to as 32bit?
[08:27] <ofirk> Is there any difference between the two?
[08:43] <tsimpson> ofirk: I see "Standard personal computer (32-bit x86 computers: Pentium, Celeron, Core, Athlon, Sempron)"
[08:43] <tsimpson> that says 32-bit
[08:44] <tsimpson> unless you mean the torrents section
[08:48] <ofirk> oh, yes. the torrent section...
[08:48] <ofirk> tsimpson: I am working on a new download page, so I think I will include only 32bit/64bit as versions
[08:49] <tsimpson> yeah, just refer to them as 32/64bit
[08:49] <tsimpson> most people don't know or care what i386 is
[08:49] <ofirk> exactly
[08:50] <ofirk> btw, do you know what supported media is about?
[08:50] <ofirk> I read that the CDs are supported but the DVDs are not
[08:51] <tsimpson> you can burn a CD image to a DVD
[08:51] <tsimpson> where is "supported media" mentioned?
[08:51] <ofirk> I meant CD images and DVD images
[08:52] <ofirk> you can see that releases.ubuntu.com doesn't contain the DVDs
[08:52] <ofirk> which means that they are "not supported"
[08:53] <tsimpson> releases.ubuntu.com _only_ contains CD images
[08:53] <tsimpson> cdimage.ubuntu.com (ironically) contains the DVD images
[08:53] <ofirk> see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-website/+bug/177671
[08:53] <ofirk> and the first post in bug 230983
[08:53] <tsimpson> the only difference between the CD and DVD is that the DVD has more packages in the image
[08:53] <tsimpson> so it can be used by apt in offline mode
[08:54] <tsimpson> both install the exact same system in the same way, so both are supported install methods
[08:56] <ofirk> so there is no difference between the CD images and the DVD images except their location?
[08:56] <ofirk> and the contained packages...
[08:57] <tsimpson> well the DVD has both the "Live" and "alternate" install methods, and more packages
[08:57] <tsimpson> it's more a convenience thing, being able to have them all on one disk
[08:58] <ofirk> and it contains only the desktop version, right?
[08:59] <tsimpson> as far as I know
[08:59] <tsimpson> there may be a server install option, not sure
[08:59] <tsimpson> I haven't needed to boot a DVD image in years
[09:15] <tsimpson> looks like the DVD is a (Live/Alternate) (Desktop/Server) install
[09:21] <ofirk> tsimpson: thank you for your help
[09:35]  * apachelogger thinks about ditching google reader in favor of akregator
[11:05] <apachelogger> I think my memeny is broken
[11:05] <apachelogger> ah
[11:05] <apachelogger> just slow ^^
[11:06] <apachelogger> brr
[11:06] <apachelogger> empathy even supports facebook-chat -.-
[11:07] <apachelogger> someone should really join the kopete crew and do sucht things to kopete
[11:09] <apachelogger> jussi: so I get this right, a memenu is just an empathy context menu with more socialness?
[11:09] <apachelogger> wow
[11:09] <apachelogger> that other thingy I dont know the english name of is ludicrous
[11:10] <apachelogger> it got two add buttons and one remov button
[11:10] <apachelogger> I have no idea what either does
[11:10] <apachelogger> oh, now I also have cancel \o/
[11:10] <jussi> apachelogger: kopete supports facebook chat also last time I looked...
[11:11] <apachelogger> yeah
[11:11] <apachelogger> BUT
[11:11] <apachelogger> how is a user supposed to know
[11:11] <apachelogger> and how do I get to my contact list with that memenu thingy?
[11:12] <apachelogger> ohhh
[11:12]  * apachelogger just got popup overlaod
[11:12] <apachelogger> hm, gwibber opened
[11:12] <apachelogger> I suppose that silly dialog with add+add+remove+cancel was gwibber setup
[11:13] <apachelogger> and quite frankly the main UI is not much better
[11:14] <apachelogger> seriously now, how do I get to my contact list -.-
[11:15] <apachelogger> ohoh

[11:40] <ofirk> Riddell: here?
[11:52] <Riddell> hi ofirk
[11:54] <ofirk> Riddell: how are you?
[11:58] <ofirk> Riddell: I have a new version of the download page that suppose to fix bug #230983
[11:59] <ofirk> and I need someone to review the text
[12:00] <ofirk> I will really appreciate if you could review it
[12:00] <ofirk> http://violetech.org/kubuntu-website-screenshot-download-page.png
[12:06] <Riddell> ofirk: where does the Download Kubuntu image link to?
[12:06] <ofirk> Riddell: it opens an iframe
[12:06] <Riddell> ofirk: Bittorrent, BitTorrent, Bit Torrent  make your mind up :)
[12:07] <JontheEchidna> Good morning
[12:07] <Riddell> after DVD and alternate links on bittorrent section I'd put an "info" link to the explanation at the bottom of the page
[12:08] <Riddell> ofirk: I'd change "Wubi" to "Wubi - Install from Windows"
[12:08] <Riddell> "for Windows 98, 2000, XP, Vista" No Windows 7?
[12:09] <ofirk> the Win7 version is in beta
[12:09] <Riddell> may be a good idea to say that then
[12:09] <jussi> Id change the wording of "download the kubuntu installer to create your own cd" - sounds like it is something to make a customised live CD?
[12:09] <ofirk> so it may cause problems with the boot loader
[12:10] <ofirk> the requirements are from the Wubi website
[12:10] <Riddell> "download locations below" the download locations are above
[12:10] <Riddell> "Don't" -> "Do not"
[12:11] <Riddell> ofirk: also add a section for Ports linking to http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/ports/releases/10.04/release/ and http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu-netbook/ports/releases/10.04/release/ with a large "totally untested and unlikely to work" caveat
[12:12] <Riddell> morning JontheEchidna, didn't see you leave at UDS
[12:12] <ofirk> Riddell: what are ports? more platforms? are they supported?
[12:12] <JontheEchidna> Riddell: yeah. :( I had to leave right after the photo to catch my plane
[12:12] <Riddell> ofirk: more platforms.  not supported in any way, anyone downloading is on their own.
[12:13] <ofirk> Riddell: I will add them under More Info
[12:15] <JontheEchidna> well, more technically I stuck around until just before the web browser beatdown, but I couldn't find you before I was to meet up with the guy I was sharing the taxi with
[12:15] <Riddell> ofirk: also if the download iframe is the same as the current there's no DVD direct download link so maybe link to http://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/cdimage.ubuntu.com/cdimage/kubuntu/releases/10.04/release/ and http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/releases/10.04/release/
[12:16] <Riddell> ofirk: oh and MD5 sums are missing
[12:22] <ofirk> Riddell: I added a ports section. see if it is ok: http://imagebin.ca/view/SI8emLv.html
[12:24] <Riddell> ofirk: tidying up the grammer there "Kubuntu is available on several other computer platforms.  These ports of Kubuntu are largely untested, are not supported in any way and may well not work at all.  Install at your own risk!"
[13:13] <txwikinger> Morning
[13:16] <ofirk> Riddell: I made the changes to the download page, can you review it again? http://violetech.org/kubuntu-website-screenshot-download-page.png
[13:17] <ofirk> Riddell: the iframe is visible this time
[13:18] <Riddell> ofirk: lovely
[13:18] <Riddell> "More Platforms" should be in title case
[13:26] <ofirk> Riddell: do you know who is in charge on shipit.kubuntu.org ?
[13:30] <davmor2> ofirk: isd
[13:37] <ScottK> Riddell: re: ports - The powerpc live image has been tested and is believed to be reasonably functional.
[13:38] <JontheEchidna> I'd appreciate it if an archive admin could push kde4libs through new queue, so that the merges can continue. Thanks.
[13:38] <ScottK> JontheEchidna: Did you see Debian uploaded a raft of -2 versions last night?
[13:38] <ScottK> It's probably worth double checking.
[13:38] <JontheEchidna> Hmm, no, I hadn't. Thanks for the heads-up
[13:48] <Quintasan> \o
[13:49] <Quintasan> JontheEchidna: mind doing some sort of update of Project Timelord? I'd like to know if I should focus on translations or something else :P
[13:49] <JontheEchidna> oh my, I still have to finish my UDS blog :S
[13:49] <JontheEchidna> ~order brain
[13:49]  * kubotu shouts: OMG!!!!! RED ALERT! We lost a brain. Get me a medic, NOW!
[13:50] <Quintasan> JontheEchidna: no pressure, I think a wiki page would be more useful than blog posts :P
[13:51] <rbelem> hey JontheEchidna
[13:51] <JontheEchidna> Hi
[13:51] <ScottK> Hello rbelem.
[13:51] <ScottK> I hope your travel home was pleasant.
[13:51] <rbelem> hey ScottK :-)
[13:51] <rbelem> the travel was very fast
[13:52] <rbelem> it took only one day
[13:52] <ScottK> Riddell: Can we get the sparc images removed from the Kubuntu ports releases page?  That's known not to work.
[13:52] <rbelem> i was very lucky
[13:53] <rbelem> i got an executive class
[13:53] <ScottK> Very nice.
[13:53] <rbelem> because the plane was full
[13:54] <rbelem> and i got the same flight of "european economic mission"
[13:54] <ScottK> Interesting.
[13:54] <Quintasan> Man, this was the second time I was in queue, I bet this is because I'm still a minor, till January :P
[13:54] <JontheEchidna> On my flight, the 2 hour NBC/Universal TV show compilation broke an hour and a half in to the trans-atlantic flight, so I got to watch all the shows again, including the "Twilight Scene It!" game :S
[13:55] <rbelem> so because of them the flight to brazil were earlier
[13:55] <rbelem> eheheh
[13:55] <Quintasan> JontheEchidna: <troll>I thought you're a Twilight fan</troll>
[13:55] <Quintasan> :P
[13:55] <JontheEchidna> But on the whole, the return trip was less miserable than the flight there. This is most likely due to the fact of it being less overnight.
[13:55] <JontheEchidna> *rage*
[13:55] <JontheEchidna> :P
[13:56] <ScottK> Quintasan: He only reacts because it's secretly true.
[13:56] <Quintasan> ScottK: :D
[13:56] <ScottK> Transatlantic west is usually easier than east.
[13:56] <rbelem> ScottK, where do you live?
[13:56] <ScottK> rbelem: Outside Baltimore, Maryland in the US.
[13:57] <rbelem> ScottK, how long was your flight?
[14:04] <ScottK> rbelem: Too long.  I had to fly to Atlanta and then back to Baltimore.  We flew almost right over my house two hours before we got to Atlanta.
[14:04] <JontheEchidna> ScottK: Could you reject kde4libs please? I'd like to merge kde4libs 4.4.3-2 from Debian.
[14:04] <ScottK> JontheEchidna: Will do.
[14:05] <rbelem> ScottK, wow
[14:05] <ScottK> JontheEchidna: It's in binary New now, so it's really too late for a reject, just upload it again.
[14:06] <JontheEchidna> OK
[14:06] <rbelem> hey guys do you have packages for  qt4.7?
[14:06] <Quintasan> Was it even released yet?
[14:07] <ScottK> Quintasan: Beta is out.
[14:07] <ScottK> rbelem: Someone has them in a PPA, I don't recall who.
[14:08] <ScottK> rbelem: I think you'll like the package split Debian did for kde4libs.  It's a lot less monolithic now.
[14:09] <rbelem> ScottK, do we need to work on qt4.7 packages? i already got it compiled. i removed lot of patches that are already in upstream
[14:10] <rbelem> ScottK, cool! :-) the packages are in debian unstable?
[14:10] <ScottK> Riddell: When do you want to move to 4.7 in Maverick?  Now or wait for the RC (I'm asking because of the BIC change that screwed us with 4.6).
[14:11] <ScottK> rbelem: Also in Maverick, but watinging in the New queue for archive admin review.
[14:11] <ScottK> rbelem: You can see them here: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/maverick/+queue?queue_state=0
[14:12] <rbelem> cool :-)
[14:12] <Quintasan> JontheEchidna: are you doing debdiffs between debian and ubuntu? I think that's pretty useless because it contains changes in code, not in packaging :S
[14:12] <Riddell> ScottK: I'm planning for tomorrow
[14:12] <ScottK> OK.  Thanks.
[14:12] <JontheEchidna> Quintasan: I usually just diff -Nru the debian dirs. I didn't write the guide on that merge page :P
[14:12] <ScottK> rbelem: ^^^ there you go, I suspect he's got it about ready already.
[14:12] <rbelem> hey Riddell :-)
[14:13] <Riddell> hi rbelem, get home ok?
[14:13] <Riddell> ScottK: I don't think I know how to remove an image from the published page, there may not be a clean way to do it
[14:13] <JontheEchidna> rbelem: This is how they will be split up pretty soon: https://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kde4libs/4:4.4.3a-0ubuntu1/+build/1741674
[14:13] <ScottK> Riddell: OK.  I'll ask slangasek if you don't mind.
[14:13] <rbelem> yeah :-) the role travel was very fast :-) just one day. it usually takes i day and a half
[14:14] <JontheEchidna> All kdelibs5 rdepends will need to be rebuild to take advantage of the split
[14:14] <JontheEchidna> s/rebuild/rebuilt
[14:14] <Quintasan> JontheEchidna: thanks, I think this guide needs a serious rewrite :P
[14:14] <JontheEchidna> Quintasan: iirc rgreening did that during the jaunty cycle or so :P
[14:15] <JontheEchidna> back when we were merging from debian experimental for KDE 4.2 :S
[14:15] <rbelem> sweet
[14:15] <Quintasan> JontheEchidna: hmm also, why do we have 4.4.2 while debian has 4.4.3?
[14:16] <JontheEchidna> Quintasan: because 4.4.3 was never uploaded to maverick. It's getting done during the merges right now, though
[14:16] <Quintasan> Hmm, I see it now
[14:16] <Quintasan> That's why I get tons of code inside of the debdiff
[14:27] <Quintasan> wut, we have merge from debian on 4.3.3 and debian's changelog says there was no 4.3.3 :O
[14:29] <Quintasan> JontheEchidna: one thing, should I be removing our entries from changelog?
[14:31] <Riddell> Quintasan: no
[14:31] <Quintasan> Riddell:  <our last merge entry> + <changes in debian since last mege> + <rest of our changes> ?
[14:32] <maco> you dont just summarise whatever changes weren't already upstreamed into being the current changelog entry?
[14:32] <Riddell> Quintasan: yes
[14:32] <Riddell> maco: I like to keep our complete changelog history, it's often useful
[14:32] <Riddell> other teams disagree
[14:33] <maco> ah so this is one of those things where different core devs give different answers?
[14:33] <Riddell> it's one of those things where my answer is the correct answer :)
[14:33] <rgreening> morning all
[14:34]  * maco rolls eyes
[14:34] <maco> rgreening: hello
[14:34] <Quintasan> rgreening: \o
[14:34] <Quintasan> maco: hi there
[14:34] <rgreening> Im soooo tired
[14:35] <apachelogger> +1
[14:37] <Quintasan> urgh those merges are giving me a headache
[14:37] <Quintasan> too much damned files
[14:39] <ScottK> maco: The fact that some developers think it's a good idea to lose history doesn't change what the right answer is.
[14:40] <maco> ok
[14:43] <apachelogger> mhhh
[14:44] <apachelogger> <3 the kolab plans
[14:44] <shtylman> heh
[14:44] <apachelogger> needs to be buzzed about
[14:44] <shtylman> yea.. me too since it means they will do the testing for us
[14:44] <Quintasan> JontheEchidna: kde-sc-dev-latest (>= 4:4.4.3) <-- wtf?
[14:44] <apachelogger> also makes us appear more businessy
[14:44] <apachelogger> which is why it needs to be buzzed about
[14:44] <shtylman> heh
[14:45] <ScottK> Maybe now ryanakca can actually do the idea he had several cycles ago about providing Kolab server access for Kubuntu devs.
[14:47]  * apachelogger thinks that a groupware could help with organizational stuff within kubuntu ^^
[14:47] <apachelogger> anyhow
[14:47] <apachelogger> this->goTo(new Lecture::Databases1());
[14:48] <jjesse> thatwould be cool
[14:49] <JontheEchidna> Quintasan: That's a new bit Debian introduced
[14:50] <JontheEchidna> Quintasan: It's their solution to making sure that all the build depend tree is there before building
[14:50] <JontheEchidna> Once I get kde4libs all sorted out it should be possible to continue on with the next layer
[14:51] <Quintasan> JontheEchidna: So I should copypasta it?
[14:51] <ofirk> davmor2: What is isd?
[14:51] <JontheEchidna> Quintasan: yeah
[14:52] <davmor2> ofirk: Department inside canonical what is the issue you are having
[14:53] <ofirk> I want to redesign shipit.kubuntu.org
[14:55] <ofirk> so, I want to contact the guys responsible for the shipit website
[15:07] <JontheEchidna> Quintasan: new kde4libs uploaded. Once it passes new queue, just ask and I'll be able to sponsor anything on the first branch of the dependency tree
[15:08]  * rgreening is porting the dell-recovery latest version to KDE/Qt so we can haz easier dell-recovery for Kubuntu with restore partition for Lucid +
[15:09]  * rgreening thinks having dell-community supported kubuntu for installation is teh awesome :)
[15:11] <Quintasan> JontheEchidna: urgh, I'm not entriely sure what can I delete, some lines were moved down a few lines so I'm applying it just because it will create confusion later, basically everything deleted in debian should be deleted in our *.install files?
[15:11] <JontheEchidna> Quintasan: could you paste the diff that you're using?
[15:13] <Quintasan> JontheEchidna: kdebase-workspace-data.install -> http://dl.dropbox.com/u/69524/debian-to-ubuntu.diff
[15:13] <Quintasan> I'm pretty sure we are not moving docs to kde4 dir
[15:13] <JontheEchidna> Quintasan: workspace?  RED ALERT! We lost a brain. Get me a medic, NOW!
[15:18] <Quintasan> :S
[15:18] <ScottK> That seems to be going around today.
[15:19] <Quintasan> It's inevitable when merging.
[15:19] <JontheEchidna> Quintasan: debian might have moved some files in between .install files too. When that happens, do the same and make the new destination package replace the old package << (4:4.4.60)
[15:19] <maco> how do i say "no this doesnt need a merge, it needs a sync" about something on the merge list?
[15:20] <JontheEchidna> maco: on the KDE merges list? I usually just put the bug number of the sync request there
[15:20] <maco> no on a universe one but i figured one of you would know anyway ;-)
[15:20] <JontheEchidna> ah, merges.ubuntu.com?
[15:20] <maco> also i was already looking at this channel
[15:20] <maco> yes
[15:21] <JontheEchidna> Yeah, putting the bug number and a little note about it needing a sync should be fine
[15:27] <JontheEchidna> Quintasan: Oh, have you seen the kubuntu-debian-differences file? That's also a big help
[15:34] <Quintasan> damn, I starting from scratch
[15:51] <shtylman> Riddell: do we have qt imported into launchpad yet?
[15:51] <shtylman> if not .. I will start with that
[15:53] <Riddell> shtylman: from packages yes but not from git (https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/maverick/qt4-x11/maverick)
[15:53] <shtylman> Riddell: k.. I will request an import from git...  what should it be called?
[15:54] <shtylman> also... do you have any clue on how it works with the git branches?
[15:54] <shtylman> the import tool also wants a project to associate the import with
[15:55] <shtylman> seems like I need to create one for qt in launchpad...
[15:55] <shtylman> if I do that... who should I assign it to? cause kubuntu people should be able to update it ... etc
[15:56] <shtylman> there is this: https://edge.launchpad.net/qt
[15:56] <shtylman> is that the right project?
[15:56] <Riddell> that's the right project
[15:56] <shtylman> k
[15:56] <Riddell> I've never done a successful code import however so I don't really know any more than you how it works
[15:56] <shtylman> k
[15:57] <shtylman> I will attempt to conjure magic
[15:57] <Riddell> I also don't understand Git so am unlikely to be helpful there
[15:57] <rbelem> i can help with git
[15:57] <rbelem> :-)
[15:58] <rbelem> hey shtylman
[15:58] <shtylman> rbelem: hey
[15:58] <rbelem> :-)
[15:59] <rbelem> what do we need to do with git?
[15:59] <shtylman> rbelem: nothing with git... we just need to have launchpad import the qt code (which is in git) into itself
[15:59] <rbelem> hum...
[16:00] <Quintasan> JontheEchidna: ./usr/share/dbus-1/interfaces/org.kde.nepomuk.OntologyManager.xml <-- Debian has them in not-installed, should I remove them as well?
[16:00] <rbelem> shtylman,  do you want to get the 4.7 branch?
[16:00] <shtylman> rbelem: well... first I am gonna try master
[16:00] <Riddell> Quintasan: yes (unless the changelog specifies that we install them for a reason)
[16:00] <rbelem> or the 4.7-stable?
[16:00] <shtylman> and then see what branches we need from there
[16:00] <shtylman> it will take some poking around to get settled I imagine
[16:01] <Quintasan> Riddell: hmm out not-installed says we need them for playground stuff
[16:01] <amichair> JontheEchidna: how would one connect bug #422174 to kde bug #209464 ? I think that's the match...
[16:01] <Riddell> Quintasan: then we want to keep them installed
[16:02] <Riddell> Quintasan: usually those interface files are not needed but I think in that case we have a package that needs them for building
[16:02] <rbelem> shtylman, cool! which url are you using?
[16:03] <shtylman> rbelem: git://gitorious.org/qt/qt.git
[16:03] <JontheEchidna> amichair: There's a link on the top right corner of the page "mark as duplicate"
[16:04] <amichair> JontheEchidna: and how do I specify that it's a kde bug?
[16:04] <JontheEchidna> Oh, kde bug
[16:04] <maco> amichair: ah no not hte duplicate thing
[16:05] <maco> amichair: click "also affects project"
[16:05] <JontheEchidna> missed that bit
[16:05] <rbelem> shtylman, ok :-)
[16:05] <maco> amichair: choose kde, then paste the url into the box
[16:06] <rbelem> shtylman, if you need help with git, poke me ;-)
[16:07] <shtylman> rbelem: will do
[16:07] <amichair> maco: thanks
[16:07] <maco> np
[16:08] <amichair> hopefully some of the many lp reporters will write a note or add a vote to upstream report...
[16:09] <Quintasan> JontheEchidna: I think I'm done, do you want all three (sid-current, sid-new, current-new)?
[16:10] <Quintasan> three diffs*
[16:10] <JontheEchidna> I like current-debian, current-merged and debian-merged
[16:12] <Quintasan> oh
[16:12] <Quintasan> k
[16:14] <JontheEchidna> I like current-debian better than debian-current, because it shows what you have to add and remove to get closer to the debian package, which is the point of merging
[16:15]  * Quintasan notes this down
[16:15] <Quintasan> JontheEchidna: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/69524/diffs.tar.bz2
[16:15] <Quintasan> JontheEchidna: be sure to smack me in the head if I'm doing it wrong
[16:15] <Quintasan> ;)
[16:25] <JontheEchidna> Quintasan: debian/control needs some work. all of the conflicts/replaces on the -kde4 packages can be dropped, for one thing, and it needs a once-over in general
[16:31] <shtylman> Riddell: I can't set the project for the vcs import to "Qt" ... says invalid value :(
[16:32] <shtylman> and I can't search for the qt project cause the search wants at least 3 characters
[16:32] <Riddell> lower case?
[16:32] <shtylman> wow
[16:33] <shtylman> oh noes!
[16:33] <shtylman> https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~shtylman/qt/trunk
[16:33] <shtylman> it is importing into that...
[16:33] <shtylman> and not the qt project... sigh
[16:33] <maco> ooh! rekonq doesnt have a statusbar taking up space! <3
[16:33] <Riddell> shtylman: that is into the qt project
[16:34] <shtylman> Riddell: not directly... that makes it a branch of the qt project under my name
[16:34] <maco> goodness why is quassel using over 300mb of ram?
[16:34] <Riddell> maco: nice isn't it, although for some reason it uses a kpassivepopup instead of just a qlabel
[16:34] <shtylman> I was going for more of a direct branch... i.e. lp:qt/trunk
[16:34] <shtylman> I suppose this is a start
[16:34] <maco> shtylman: you mark the one under yours as being trunk for the project
[16:34] <maco> its an alias
[16:35] <Riddell> shtylman: anything like that is an alias
[16:35] <shtylman> ooo fancy
[16:35] <maco> (i recently learned how to make a project in lp)
[16:35] <maco> though umm rekonq seems to go all "i'm just gonna hang and not draw the webpage" quite a bit
[16:35] <maco> i wonder if its mishandling flash?
[16:49] <rgreening> shtylman: any pointers to porting gtk ubiquity pliugins to kde?
[16:49] <rgreening> besides run away :0
[16:49] <shtylman> hahaha
[16:50] <shtylman> rgreening: all you have to do is implement the same methods.. usually found in the base class for that plugin
[16:50] <rgreening> shtylman: I am trying to port the dell-recovery app to support kde recovery. The new version uses ubiquity and a couple of plugins
[16:50] <shtylman> k
[16:50] <shtylman> if you look at any of the plugins
[16:51]  * rgreening has no experience in ubiquity and plugins
[16:51] <rgreening> :)
[16:51] <shtylman> you will see that there are two classes
[16:51] <shtylman> a PageGtk
[16:51] <shtylman> iirc
[16:51] <shtylman> and a PageKde
[16:51] <shtylman> something like that
[16:51] <shtylman> basically... the plugin system looks for that class in the plugin file
[16:51] <rgreening> e.g.: http://paste.ubuntu.com/435029/
[16:51] <shtylman> if it finds it
[16:51] <shtylman> yea
[16:52] <shtylman> so you need to make a PageKde(PluginUI) class in that same file
[16:52] <rgreening> ya, so, I need to port for example the one pasted above
[16:52] <rgreening> ok
[16:52] <shtylman> and the plugin system will find it
[16:53] <rgreening> shtylman: have a look at the one I pasted and point out some of the obvious changes...
[16:54] <rgreening> shtylman: so, for example plugin_widgets would be set to whatever thew kde equiv is
[16:54] <rgreening> right
[16:54] <shtylman> yep
[16:54] <rgreening> QLabel?
[16:54] <shtylman> plugin_widgets needs to be the main widget for the plugin
[16:54] <shtylman> if that is all you want .. then yes
[16:55]  * rgreening doesnt know\\
[16:55] <rgreening> :(
[16:55] <shtylman> you will need to import PyQt4.QtGui QLabel
[16:55] <shtylman> heh
[16:55]  * rgreening is noob for ubiquity
[16:55] <rgreening> :)
[16:55] <shtylman> I don't know what this plguin does... so I can't really say what you "need"
[16:55] <apachelogger> that sounds very ubiquity specific :P
[16:55] <apachelogger> can we use qlabel outside it too?
[16:55] <shtylman> but whatever it is... plugin_widgets needs to be some sort of widget
[16:56] <apachelogger> sounds like a useful thing :P
[16:56]  * apachelogger invokes the merge magic
[16:57] <CIA-6> [ubuntuone-kde] Harald Sitter<EMAIL_ADDRESS>*<EMAIL_ADDRESS>* (30 files in 6 dirs) Merge API branch.
[16:58]  * rgreening needz beer
[16:58] <apachelogger> u1-kde is now at 2467 SLOC
[16:58] <apachelogger> and the api is not even completely implemented :P
[17:50] <txwikinger> Anybody else experience lockups with rekonq when opening a new tab?
[17:51] <Riddell> try the daily build
[17:55] <maco> Riddell: ppa?
[17:55] <Riddell> yes
[17:55]  * maco headdesk
[17:55] <maco> WHICH ONE?
[17:55] <Riddell> THIS ONE!
[17:55] <Riddell> deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/rekonq/rekonq-daily/ubuntu lucid main
[17:56] <maco> thank ya
[17:57] <neversfelde> there is a problem with minitube for GNOME users, I made it depend on phonon, because I thought that is what Debian does, but phonon-backend-gstreamer is not installed, if you use GNOME. The testing packages in my PPA had a dependency on phonon-backend-xine | phonon-backend and they worked. Now I am unsure what is correct?
[17:58] <maco> Riddell: you know, we forgot to give seele that chocolate we bought her
[17:59] <Riddell> neversfelde: phonon seems to depend on phonon-backend-xine | phonon-backend
[17:59] <Riddell> maco: we did indeed, whatever happened to it?
[18:00] <maco> Riddell: its sitting next to me, still in the plastic
[18:01] <neversfelde> Riddell: yes, so GNOME users should get phonon-backend-gstreamer when they install minitube, or is that wrong?
[18:01] <maco> seele: we should meet up at some point so you can have the chocolate Riddell and i got your for valentines day
[18:01] <Riddell> neversfelde: no they'd get phonon-backend-xine
[18:01] <Riddell> maco: or just post it
[18:02] <maco> Riddell: dont know her address
[18:02] <neversfelde> ah ok, they should get nothing if phonon-backend-gstreamer is already installed and if not phonon-backend-xine is installed
[18:02] <neversfelde> ?
[18:02] <Riddell> neversfelde: yes
[18:03] <seele> maco: er.. admittedly that's a little weird.
[18:04] <maco> seele: the box said "QT" and we thought of you because well... KDE....Qt...
[18:04] <neversfelde> then I think the package has the correct dependency, but that do not solve anything
[18:05] <maco> Riddell: maybe we're both just creepy punny
[18:05] <seele> maco: well, thanks for the thought anyway :)
[18:06] <ScottK> Thought chocolate isn't nearly as satisfying as the eating kind.
[18:07] <maco> ScottK: right, which is why she ought to meet up with me and retrieve it ;-)
[18:08] <Riddell> dantti: back hame?
[18:08]  * ScottK hands Riddell and "o"
[18:08] <ScottK> and/an
[18:08] <ScottK> Rats
[18:08]  * maco suspects Riddell's slipping back into Scots
[18:09] <dantti> Riddell: yes :D home sweet home :P
[18:10] <dantti> Riddell: btw I have some bug on kubuntu installer
[18:10] <dantti> *bugs
[18:10] <Riddell> uh oh
[18:11] <dantti> I instaled it on my desktop because the font were screewd on my Tv.. gues what .. the bug was on nvidia drivers... :P
[18:12] <neversfelde> Riddell: any idea what I can do to make it work on GNOME desktops? Everyone is crying for a phonon-backend-gstreamer dependency, but I guess no KDE user would like that.
[18:19] <Riddell> neversfelde: I don't understand, does it need phonon-backend-gstreamer?
[18:21] <JontheEchidna> Riddell: On the topic of phonon, it looks like QtWebKit is going to be using QtMultimedia for HTML5 stuff in the future
[18:21] <JontheEchidna> It should either be around by Qt 4.7 or the separate QtWebKit release
[18:21] <Riddell> JontheEchidna: from what thiago said that seems to be in Qt 4.8 only
[18:22] <Riddell> although he wasn't too clear on it
[18:22] <JontheEchidna> oh
[18:22] <Riddell> it's not good though, means dragging in gstreamer onto the CD
[18:22] <neversfelde> Riddell: for KDE users it works without problems, for GNOME users only if phonon-backend-gstreamer and some of it's plugins are installed
[18:22] <Riddell> neversfelde: so for KDE users it works with phonon xine installed, but Gnome users it doesn't work with phonon xine?
[18:23] <neversfelde> yes
[18:23] <JontheEchidna> bleh, pulling in gstreamer sucks
[18:23] <Riddell> neversfelde: that makes no sense
[18:23] <JontheEchidna> Riddell: would you mind taking a look at kde4libs in new queue?
[18:24] <dantti> Riddell: if I select install kubuntu using brazilian portuguese it opens the plasma-desktop instead of the installer, and the installer has some problems with tab flow (as i installed without a mouse...
[18:24] <Riddell> JontheEchidna: it does a bit, although it might mean an end to the HTML5 qtwebkit problems with phonon-xine
[18:24] <neversfelde> Riddell: a lot of users confirmed that it does not work with phonon-backend-xine on GNOME. I will have a deeper look on that
[18:24] <Riddell> neversfelde: well that makes no sense, there must be some missing package, maybe they don't have libxine1-ffmpeg installed
[18:25] <neversfelde> I am afraid I will have to install GNOME somewhere, thanks Riddell
[18:26] <dantti> Riddell: I also had some problems when starting and shuting down the system, it never finished doing that, on one of the shutdowns I pressed ESC and saw a message saying that something was disconnected, then ctrl + alt + del started the reboot process... pretty weird
[18:27] <Riddell> dantti: shtylman is the man to poke with installer issues
[18:27] <Riddell> neversfelde: a chroot should work
[18:28] <dantti> Riddell: k
[18:29] <shtylman> I heard installer issues
[18:29] <dantti> shtylman: yup
[18:29] <shtylman> I dunno what yall are talking about
[18:29] <shtylman> I know nothing :p
[18:29] <dantti> :P
[18:30] <dantti> shtylman: did you use designer to create the instaler?
[18:30] <shtylman> dantti: yea
[18:31] <dantti> shtylman: so it's pretty ease to fix the tab things you just need to edit the tab order
[18:32] <dantti> shtylman: also iirc the "proceed" button was not the deafault one so I had to keep using tab to proceed to the next question
[18:32] <shtylman> dantti: not quite ... depends what you mean by "tabs"
[18:32] <shtylman> oh.. that tab order
[18:32] <shtylman> yes... that is easy to fix
[18:32] <dantti> yup especially the partition part the tab order was quite out of order :P
[18:33] <shtylman> patches welcome :) .. just note that much of it is being overhauled... especially in the disk areas
[18:34] <dantti> shtylman: and you should elide middle in the selector of FS because i could not see if it was ext3 or ext4 :P
[18:35] <dantti> i would send patches if i had mor time :P
[18:36] <dantti> but i need to get focused otherwise i can't finish a thing :P
[18:41] <shtylman> dantti: indeed... I understand that :)
[18:54] <shtylman> how do I version something for my ppa which does not exist in ubuntu yet?
[18:54] <shtylman> lets say I have version 1.2.3 of a library
[18:55] <shtylman> do I call my version 1.2.3-1ppa1 ?
[18:55] <shtylman> or 1.2.3-0ppa0 ?
[18:55] <shtylman> this versioning seems a bit confusing :)
[18:55] <rbelem> 1.2.3-0~ppa1
[18:55] <Riddell> shtylman: 1.2.3-0ubuntu1~ppa1  probably
[18:56] <shtylman> lordy
[18:56] <Riddell> yes it's messy :)
[18:56] <rbelem> :-)
[18:56] <Riddell> the ubuntu version would be 1.2.3-0ubuntu1  and the ~ makes it less than the previous version
[18:56] <shtylman> I see
[18:56] <shtylman> k... imma try that
[18:57] <JontheEchidna> shtylman: Is this "something" what I'm thinking it is? :3
[18:57] <shtylman> JontheEchidna: sadly no :(
[18:57] <JontheEchidna> :(
[18:57] <shtylman> unrelated to qt/kde things
[18:58] <shtylman> but don't worry.... those will come in due time
[18:58] <JontheEchidna> :)
[18:58] <shtylman> qt is importing into lp as we speak
[19:00] <shtylman> :( https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~shtylman/qt/trunk
[19:00] <shtylman> ot finished and now wants to do it again...
[19:00] <shtylman> sadness
[19:01] <rbelem> shtylman, https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA/Uploading versioning for ppa
[19:03] <shtylman> thanks
[19:03] <rbelem> :-)
[19:04] <shtylman> can one package be uploaded to multiple series?
[19:04] <shtylman> or does the changelog need to be specified for each one
[19:04] <shtylman> i.e. lucid, karmic..etc
[19:05] <JontheEchidna> you might be able to use the ppa copy feature for that
[19:05] <JontheEchidna> copy to your own ppa, but change the series
[19:05] <shtylman> ... go on...
[19:06] <shtylman> ahh I see that
[19:06] <shtylman> interesting...
[19:06] <shtylman> now to figure out how to make it work...
[19:07] <shtylman> so why does this keep telling me that a newer version is available: https://edge.launchpad.net/~shtylman/+archive/acr
[19:07] <shtylman> I am quite certain I named the version right... :(
[19:08] <debfx> shtylman: you need to put the 1: in front of the version
[19:08] <shtylman> ... what...
[19:08] <shtylman> why... how did this happen...
[19:08] <shtylman> what does the 1: even mean?
[19:09] <shtylman> seems like it shouldn't be there..
[19:10] <debfx> it's called an epoch
[19:10] <shtylman> meaning...
[19:10] <JontheEchidna> It means that somebody cocked up the version sometime in the package's history
[19:11] <shtylman> great..
[19:11] <JontheEchidna> and they had to add 1: in front of it to get the version higher than the cocked up version
[19:11] <shtylman> so what does this mean for all future packages?
[19:11] <JontheEchidna> until 2.x, yeah
[19:11] <shtylman> are you kidding me?
[19:11] <JontheEchidna> nope
[19:12] <JontheEchidna> The KDE packages have had an epoch of 4 for 10 years or so
[19:12] <shtylman> *sigh*
[19:13] <JontheEchidna> 11
[19:13] <JontheEchidna> kdebase (4:1.1-19990207-1) unstable; urgency=low
[19:13] <JontheEchidna>   * new upstream version 1.1 and new epoche
[19:13] <Riddell> blame coolo for that, it's a suse conspiracy :)
[19:13] <JontheEchidna>  -- Stephan Kulow<EMAIL_ADDRESS>Sun,  7 Feb 1999 12:12:58 +0100
[19:13] <shtylman> heh
[19:14] <JontheEchidna> We can't drop it until KDE5, which is at least a good 5 years off
[19:14] <Quintasan> lol?
[19:14] <Quintasan> Why so?
[19:15] <JontheEchidna> because 4.x is smaller than 4:4.x
[19:15] <Quintasan> :O
[19:15] <shtylman> why can't the old changelog entries be purged?
[19:15] <JontheEchidna> Users that already had the 4:4.4.x couldn't upgrade to the 4.4.x packages, because the version would be smaller
[19:16] <shtylman> but for a series jump.. ie. maverick...
[19:16] <JontheEchidna> dpkg still views it as a downgrade
[19:16] <shtylman> can't we purge entiries and the upgrade still work?
[19:16] <shtylman> wow
[19:16] <txwikinger> Riddell I use the daily build.. but I can get the newest one, I guess
[19:16] <JontheEchidna> but we've lived with it for 10 years. It looks a bit messy, but doesn't really do anything too bad. What's waiting 5 more years?
[19:17] <shtylman> haha
[19:17] <JontheEchidna> Well, maybe more like 8 years
[19:17] <JontheEchidna> Since Aaron said he wanted KDE4 to last for at least 10 years before KDE5
[19:18]  * txwikinger has actually the newest pacakges
[19:18] <Quintasan> wait, what?
[19:18] <Quintasan> 10 years!?
[19:18] <shtylman> haha
[19:18]  * Quintasan is going to be 27 by then
[19:18] <Quintasan> @_@
[19:18] <shtylman> heh
[19:19]  * txwikinger is amused about those greenhorns here again
[19:20] <Quintasan> txwikinger: ya wanna fight? ;P
[19:20] <txwikinger> Quintasan: In your age you should respect your elders ;)
[19:21] <Quintasan> The Ultimate Argument™
[19:21] <Quintasan> txwikinger: 42
[19:22] <debfx> bumping the epoch is much better than having versions like <IP_ADDRESS>+<IP_ADDRESS>5ubuntu1~hardy1+really<IP_ADDRESS>ubuntu2 (flashplugin in hardy-backports) :D
[19:22] <txwikinger> Yes.. but everybody has forgotten the question
[19:22] <shtylman> debfx: hahahaha
[19:23] <rgreening> Riddell: fixing the usb-creator bugs you submitted
[19:29] <rgreening> Riddell, shtylman: where's the latest svg's for the new Kubuntu branding? I need to update USB Creator branding.
[19:30] <shtylman> rgreening: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KubuntuArtwork
[19:30] <shtylman> downlaod the svg
[19:30] <shtylman> don't save as the one on the wiki
[19:30] <shtylman> it is wrong
[19:32] <rgreening> I downloaded the link and its the squished one
[19:32] <rgreening> shtylman: ^
[19:33] <nixternal> hola
[19:33] <rgreening> la-ho
[19:33] <rgreening> :)
[19:34] <shtylman> rgreening: .... hmm
[19:34] <shtylman> shouldn't be...
[19:34] <shtylman> unless Riddell didn't update the file... but I think he said he did
[19:36] <rgreening> shtylman: got a better linkl for my to try?
[19:38] <Riddell> check the history
[19:39] <shtylman> rgreening: nope... that svg should be correct.. lemme look at it
[19:39] <shtylman> rgreening: it is correct
[19:39] <rgreening> hmm... still looks squishy
[19:40] <rgreening> meebee i need glasses
[19:40] <rgreening> ^ better ^ glasses
[19:40] <shtylman> haha
[19:40] <shtylman> nope..it is right
[19:40] <shtylman> the png is wrong
[19:40] <shtylman> but the svg is right
[19:56] <JontheEchidna> dang, that's neat: http://www.omat.nl/2010/05/17/accountwizard-demo/
[19:56] <rgreening> Riddell: updated svg/png for usb-creator
[19:56] <JontheEchidna> I always hated going to the gmail help thingy to get all the pop details...
[20:08] <ScottK> Riddell: I just had a good chat with notmart about agateau's menubar stuff and using it in netbook.  I sense convergence of ideas coming.
[20:13] <shtylman> cool
[21:32] <shtylman> copy package in ppa doesn't want to copy my package
[21:32] <shtylman> :(
[21:33] <shtylman> it will only copy binaries... not rebuild my sources... hmm
[23:06] <shtylman> so launchpad fails to import qt
[23:06] <shtylman> for some reason it finishes... but never actually makes the branch
[23:06] <shtylman> so it tries to reimport
[23:06] <shtylman> quite amusing
[23:16] <shtylman> is already accepted in ubuntu/hardy and you cannot upload the same version within the same distribution. You have to modify the source version and re-upload.
[23:16] <shtylman> I got that error when uploading to my ppa :(
[23:17] <shtylman> my pacakge had ~<mystuff>
[23:17] <shtylman> on the end of it
[23:17] <shtylman> why does it hate me?

[23:44] <ryanakca> ScottK: IIRC, I had the whole Kolab thing set up, but was hesitant at sending out all the login stuff at the time because I didn't have very much sysadmin experience and didn't want the whole thing crashing down on me if something went wrong.
[23:45] <ryanakca> ScottK: I still have access to the server. Shall I get it back up and running at some point?
