The %{_iconsdir} isn't working anymore 14:16:35 anyway, http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=139240 14:16:52 thomasj: there is no macro by that name, maybe you meant %_kde4_iconsdir ? 14:16:58 Can't open input file /builddir/build/SOURCES/kde-l10n-hne-4.3.3.tar.bz2: No such file or directory. 14:17:09 it's missing 14:17:09 rdieter, it evaluates locally 14:17:18 So it's missing in sources. 14:17:22 ah 14:17:23 yes 14:17:24 yep 14:17:28 Of course you won't catch that in a local build. 14:18:03 But I think you also forgot to list is as SourceN. 14:18:05 Please check. 14:18:31 there were some grumblings on kde-packager list about further webkitkde backports, and retagging, not sure if that's gonna happen or not 14:19:03 nucleo already had to revert a recent webkitkde update due to that 14:19:59 and I can fix kde-l10n after meeting, I think that's all on 4.3.3 14:20:10 i commited new kdenetwork in CVS 14:20:21 The Konsole patch I want to backport: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=177637 14:20:22 Bug 177637: wishlist, NOR, ---, konsole-devel kde org, RESOLVED FIXED, Not Implemented: Open Folder in Tabs' with SSH bookmarks 14:20:46 See also http://www.alphatek.info/2009/11/01/im-giving-kde-4-a-shot-in-fedora-12/ 14:20:47 #action rdieter fix kde-l10n sources 14:20:55 Kevin_Kofler: has someone already tested this fix 14:20:55 #info 4.3.3 is imported into devel/ branch, kdebindings doesn't build 14:21:42 No idea. 14:22:30 jreznik: re: kdebindings, my rebuild for the bugfix also failed 14:22:36 someone should to make sure that the fix works before commit it in our CVS 14:22:41 Kevin_Kofler: try it and we can test it 14:23:01 im guessing some mix of sip/qt4 isn't working 14:23:27 #chair jreznik rdieter Kevin_Kofler thomasj than mathstuf 14:23:27 Current chairs: Kevin_Kofler jreznik mathstuf rdieter than thomasj 14:23:40 I can look at kdebindings tomorrow. 14:24:20 rdieter: is there any build problem alse in kde-4.3.3? 14:24:28 I already figured out the problem for 4.3.2 and told mathstuf about a possible fix. 14:24:37 fwiw, I'm fairly certain it builds ok on f12 (I did an initial test, and it got further than the devel/f13 fail point) 14:24:40 Somehow he forgot it, I'll dig up the logs. 14:24:50 Kevin_Kofler: cool 14:24:56 than: nope, that's it 14:25:31 Kevin_Kofler: ok, great... anything more for 4.3.3? we can discuss Konsole backport later 14:25:46 i may have missed it reading backlogs or it just left my thought process; I'll check here too 14:26:21 #action mathstuf Kevin_Kofler try to remember possible fix for kdebindings 14:27:18 could we move? seems like everything for 4.3.3 right now 14:27:34 move on, yeah 14:27:39 #topic Fedora 12 looming soon, remaining issues/blockers? 14:27:44 Kevin_Kofler: found it, tigcc logs, 25th 2-3am (was probably sleeping here) 14:28:09 mathstuf: OK (and you started it on the wrong chan, not me ;-) ). 14:28:19 yeah 14:28:59 ok, Fedora 12 issues/blockers now 14:29:19 quick show of hands, who's running/testing f12/rawhide ? 14:29:31 * rdieter raises hand 14:29:35 * jreznik is running f12/rawhide 14:29:35 * thomasj hands up 14:29:43 * mathstuf has 3x F12 installs 14:29:58 * SMParrish 14:30:11 one straight, one with kde-unstable, and then a GNOME one 14:30:13 I think I'll test the live image a bit after meeting, -beta still had the "install to hd link on desktop lacking execute permission" problem 14:30:13 * jreznik has only 2.5x F12 installs :( 14:30:49 friend had this issue when installing yesterday 14:30:53 .bug 529951 14:30:54 Bug https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=529951 medium, low, ---, katzj, ASSIGNED, SELinux is preventing the /bin/loadkeys from using potentially mislabeled files (Documents). 14:30:54 mathstuf: Bug 529951 SELinux is preventing the /bin/loadkeys from using potentially mislabeled files (Documents). - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=529951 14:30:56 Bug 529951: medium, low, ---, katzj, ASSIGNED, SELinux is preventing the /bin/loadkeys from using potentially mislabeled files (Documents). 14:31:05 ahh 14:31:08 :/ 14:31:23 * Kevin_Kofler 's meeting at the university is finally over (half an hour late). 14:31:24 mathstuf: the beta or more recent images? 14:31:31 beta 14:32:19 Oops, the bots are fighting each other. 14:32:52 jreznik: the 4.3.3 breakage is the same as the 4.3.2 one, so we're at least graced with it being only one issue :) 14:33:03 Kevin_Kofler: not so much as feeding each other 14:33:16 at least buggbot output doesn't trigger zodbot... 14:33:24 We should add that bug to the F12 blocker list. 14:33:45 Kevin_Kofler: could you take care of it? 14:33:54 * rdieter roots for zodbot 14:34:23 jreznik: I don't have the new Bugzilla password on this machine right now (darn forced password changes!). 14:34:42 Kevin_Kofler: +1 (I curses bz the other day too) 14:35:00 (IMHO we really need to get them to stop this practice or get Fedora to move to a separate bug tracker. It's just impossible to work that way.) 14:35:32 But anyway, can somebody else please make that bug block F12Blocker? 14:35:41 I'll do it 14:35:45 If we move, then to a faster one ;) 14:36:27 Anyway, that's out of scope for KDE SIG, so move on please? :-) 14:36:37 blocked 14:36:43 so no known issues? great 14:37:07 #topic constantine-kde-theme, aka packaging Mosaico kdm/ksplash theme 14:37:34 So the topic should be constantine-kde-theme-extras, to be precise, right? 14:38:01 for mosaico kdm/ksplash theme - in extras we ship latest mosaico, my theme was prepared for the first mosaico - colors does not match 14:38:17 and it would need more tweaking 14:38:38 oh, the colors changed? boo 14:38:42 I'm not sure it's worth to deal with it... it would definitely need some time 14:38:49 I was hoping it would be just packaging work 14:38:53 rdieter: first mosaico was dark blue 14:39:31 the new one looks dark to me too, but maybe I just can't tell the difference. :) 14:39:45 The old one was more purplish. 14:39:50 The new one is pure blue. 14:40:14 for example in ksplash rectangles have bad shadows etc... 14:40:17 I can fix it 14:40:30 jreznik: is the content for the old mosaico kdm/ksplash in svn anywhere (other than history)? 14:40:35 It shouldn't be too hard to recolor things. 14:40:56 rdieter: I can import it back 14:41:15 I think the artwork folks won't like that solution. 14:41:28 ok, I don't think it's worth putting too much time into 14:41:37 Kevin_Kofler: no, a little recoloring, fixing shaddows... 14:42:28 rdieter: it would be quite a lot work for "nothing" I think 14:43:12 yeah, well, put it into svn somewhere, at least it'll be available if someone wants to work on it. 14:43:32 #agreed we don't want mosaico extras kdm/ksplash theme now, feel free to take it 14:43:43 #action jreznik to import old theme to svn 14:44:14 move on 14:44:17 #topic VOIP meetings 14:45:01 I'll see if I can get the recoloring done for Mosaico, but no promises. 14:45:10 I agree there's more urgent stuff to do. 14:45:34 For VoIP meetings, I think those are just useless. 14:45:43 Kevin_Kofler: +1 14:45:49 +1 14:46:03 Kevin_Kofler: you will need source SVGs, I'll update it in SVN 14:46:32 jreznik: I don't need sources to turn the hue slider in Krita. ;-) 14:46:37 the problem with VOPI meetings is our open office :( 14:46:59 Kevin_Kofler: shadows are really bad on lighter background 14:47:09 I suspect there may be a bit of a language barrier for some too, english not being native/first language for some 14:47:18 +100 14:47:34 * thomasj is even worse in speaking english 14:47:51 part of why I think *if* it's going to be used, to do only as a suppliment (to irc'ing or whatever) 14:47:55 rdieter: it's great chance to get better in English but yes, it's much more difficult to join discussion then 14:47:58 Language is not going to be a big issue for me, the technical/physical/hardware requirements are going to be the bigger problem. 14:48:27 Kevin_Kofler: I thought so too, but I found it shockingly simple to setup yesterday (using a logitech usb headset here) 14:48:59 * jreznik has opposite experience with twinkle... 14:49:25 jreznik: if you have time after meeting, let's play with that a bit (I suspect voip isn't enabled in your fas account) 14:49:25 rdieter: 1. I don't have such a headset yet. 14:49:32 Well, I had an old one, but my mother uses it now. 14:49:36 rdieter: ok, thx 14:49:54 And 2. I can't really talk to folks at the university and to you at the same time. ;-) 14:49:57 I have two little kids here, when they start to yell, you all would have bleeding ears 14:50:00 Kevin_Kofler: so you mother is more up-to-day to current tech than you :D 14:50:03 So we'd need a different meeting time for sure. 14:50:32 For example, when/if we hold some meetings @ FUDCon, might be neat to voip some of that, so outsiders can hear what''s going on 14:50:55 The meetings at the university are always going over time, just like ours. 14:50:55 well, i got UTC backwards and this meeting time is actually an hour earlier and therefore further from my class 14:51:14 And they're scheduled to end at 14:00 UTC sharp. 14:51:16 I tried to call into conference room 1 and just got a busy signal 14:51:42 rdieter: great idea! it would be great setup conference from there! 14:51:53 SMParrish: weird 14:51:55 Plus, the room is used by other stuff at 14:45 UTC, so I had to move out with my laptop. 14:52:03 #idea voip conference call from FUDCon 14:52:08 SMParrish: what's your fas username again? 14:52:18 tuxbrewr 14:52:55 ok, more playing after meeting. 14:53:01 in that case, i need new hardware ;) 14:53:16 though a headset/webcam is probably wanted anyways 14:53:28 And I think we shouldn't do a KDE SIG meeting in person. 14:53:32 * jreznik should finish Makneto one day... 14:53:34 A lot of us are not going to be at the FUDCon. 14:53:39 * thomasj needs to buy a headset 14:54:17 Basically all us Europeans except jreznik (and that's assuming he gets the visa and everything sorted out). 14:54:34 Kevin_Kofler: the official meeting i agree 14:54:43 we can try VoIP next time, with more people able to connect there... but still I think for regular meetings IRC is better 14:54:57 but for other discussion, having voip for others to listen would be good 14:55:13 Kevin_Kofler: visa @ my passport, waiting for flight confirmation from AMEX ;-) 14:55:32 I'd go further, as I've suggested, voip should only be considerred an addon, irc is still primary 14:55:32 That assumes you plan the discussions beforehand though. 14:55:45 ie, do both 14:55:51 If you do spontaneous discussions, VoIP is not going to work. 14:55:52 but how? 14:55:55 We wouldn't have a backreadable log for the VOIP meeting 14:56:08 rdieter: I think VoIP should not be considered at all. 14:56:11 isn't the icecast streaming setup yet on the talk conferences? 14:56:11 I don't have idea how both could work together 14:56:15 meh, maybe so 14:56:20 It's a solution looking for a problem. 14:56:33 We've been using IRC just fine all this time. 14:56:41 I mean; someone can record the icecast stream and put it on the wiki -if- we wanted to do voip 14:56:48 just thought it was too cool not to try and consider, brainstorm for ways to take advantage of it 14:56:50 Makneto was intended as solution - whiteboard with chat and voice/video over XMPP... but I'm out of time to finish it 14:57:06 jreznik: wow 14:57:40 rdieter: http://sourceforge.net/projects/makneto/ 14:58:43 maybe with longer winter nights I can hack more on it :) 14:59:09 I don't see how that solves the fundamental problems of logging, discussion in noisy rooms etc. either. 14:59:28 the whiteboard is nice at least 15:00:10 Kevin_Kofler: at our university they are working on similar system - it can log voice too (voice recognition) 15:00:20 anything more today? 15:00:21 I've found no decent whiteboards yet that didn't require markers with volatile chemicals 15:00:26 jreznik: import skynet? :P 15:00:54 PhrkOnLsh: Skynet development team t-shirt is great 15:01:03 time is over 15:01:16 lol 15:01:24 well, that was a productive meeting 15:01:30 must be becuase I finally showed up ;) 15:01:47 LOL 15:01:57 #endmeeting
