05:12:48 hi 05:12:49 I think fonts-tweak-tool is still not in f17-updates-testing but hopefully all other features already landed in f17 tag? 05:13:50 juhp, yeah, i think this afternoon it will in f17-updates-testing 05:14:02 ah sorry it is in f17-updates-testing 05:14:19 juhp, ok 05:14:34 waiting for stable right 05:15:17 yes 05:15:30 jni: btw can you fix some bugs prior to the beta change deadline? 05:15:42 tagoh, yeah, i see you have report some issues, i will try to fix it as soon as possible 05:15:49 cool 05:15:55 tagoh, thanks 05:17:07 anything else? does f17 work well for you so far? :) 05:19:57 juhp: I guess so except the above feature. 05:20:11 okay 05:20:24 working pretty well for me :) 05:20:58 but of course we should keep on testing through beta to final 05:21:20 okay, good. right 05:22:04 shall we move on then. 05:22:09 #topic Input Methods 05:22:26 epico_laptop: please go ahead. 05:23:15 okay, I got a mail from Liang Suilong to suggest to retire scim-fcitx. 05:24:22 fcitx is active and update to 4.2.1, but scim-fcitx is not update for a long time. 05:24:41 aha 05:24:49 they have conflicted binary files. 05:25:19 . bug 797821 05:25:25 epico_laptop: Bug 797821 scim-fcitx : Conflicts with fcitx - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=797821 05:25:47 so he asked whether to retire scim-fcitx. 05:26:25 do they have different functionality but have the same name? 05:27:24 I think they are the same tools, but dunno whether the binary file format is the same. 05:27:33 so then fcitx will obsolete scim-fcitx? 05:28:18 I think not, fcitx doesn't depend any IM framework. 05:28:32 fcitx it has its own XIM module 05:29:02 hi 05:29:08 epico_laptop, ok the bug report doesn't seem so serious in itself 05:29:16 yes 05:29:36 or just keep it? 05:29:51 those programs should probably be moved to a tools subpackage say 05:30:12 epico_laptop, I dunno - but if it still works and people might be using it - then little reason to drop it 05:30:26 okay, I see. 05:30:35 if :-) 05:30:47 hmm, if it's a major in China, ideally it should move core to the library as we did in libpinyin and libskk perhaps. 05:31:08 right 05:31:25 of the tools are compatible to probably better to just drop the old versions 05:31:27 if 05:31:36 * juhp tries again 05:31:43 if the tools are compatible then probably better to just drop the old versions 05:32:07 okay, I see, will ask the upstream. 05:32:18 anyway wonder how many people want to install both... 05:32:23 dunno why it has separate subpackages. scim-fcitx doesn't require it to run? 05:32:23 thanks 05:32:39 welcome. 05:32:51 fcitx is more popular. 05:33:01 ah they are already subpackaged, doh 05:33:13 fcitx appears very earlier. 05:33:19 and has a long history. 05:33:26 right. fcitx conflicts with scim-fcitx-tools apparently 05:33:43 tagoh: I think they are not needed normally at runtime bicbw of course 05:34:12 so maybe getting rid of scim-fcitx-tools would be enough if compatible 05:34:28 okay 05:34:42 given that it's the same, is it maybe better having subpackages in fcitx and just drop scim-fcitx-tools? dunno 05:35:06 yeah 05:36:53 anyway, bug itself isn't so hard to fix. it may be a bit weak to consider retiring IMHO. 05:37:33 I see, will keep maintain it. 05:37:46 dunno how many users uses scim-fcitx now in Fedora though. 05:38:12 maybe they prefers fcitx over scim-fcitx. 05:38:25 aha 05:38:44 fcitx is popular because it has less dependencies on libraries. 05:39:37 one can announce orphaning packages in the list anyway. if someone still want to keep it in fedora, they may want to take it over. that's it. 05:40:35 okay. anything else updates or concerns to share for IM? 05:40:48 fujiwarat, still planning libibus soname bump for f17? 05:41:33 I think the current updates-testing is the final for f17. 05:43:09 great 05:43:26 we should probably give it karma? 05:43:36 to get it into beta 05:44:55 Yes, I will move it into stable. 05:45:53 ah yeah only 3 days for f17 still 05:46:02 right 05:46:04 3 days in testing 05:46:41 tagoh: so hopefully people were already testing it some in the test day? 05:47:06 juhp: yes as long as they do yum update before testing. 05:47:15 yes 05:47:56 anything else? 05:49:02 ok, the next update should be post beta. 05:51:35 okay, better move on then. 05:51:50 #topic Fonts and Rendering 05:52:04 any updates or concerns to share? 05:52:35 tagoh: font-tweak-tool is really nice. i liked it. Specifically if someone download any font from internet and want to set it as a default system font 05:53:01 nod :) 05:53:58 i will resolve panose bugs of lohit soon 05:54:11 cool 05:54:54 guess there may be more fonts needs to be fixed. 05:55:43 yes, even smc-fonts is broken 05:56:15 might be we should send mail to fonts list for checking this in each fonts, at least for Sans font. 05:56:24 I think default value is Serif 05:57:53 because there are no classification for serif afaics 05:58:03 aha 05:59:12 okay, move on. 05:59:17 #topic Open Floor 05:59:31 is there are any topics prior to finish today's meeting? 06:00:33 tagoh: i have release lohit-marathi in upstream now 06:00:47 pravins: great 06:00:57 and wanna add it to fedora, i remember i did orphaned it long time back in fedora itself 06:01:12 aha 06:01:27 do i need to put review request again or can i just re-enable that package? lohit-marathi-fonts 06:01:52 need to review again if the package is orphaned. 06:02:07 thought there should be document for that in wiki 06:02:17 yes, i will search it 06:02:18 thanks 06:03:48 okay, let's stop here then. thanks everyone for the meeting! 06:04:04 #endmeeting
