05:10:33 for i18n related stuff 05:11:04 I just saw that TC2 anaconda backtraces for japanese, hmm 05:11:15 just filed as 05:11:16 aha. is it a known issue? 05:11:24 .bug 805771 05:11:26 juhp: Bug 805771 UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode characters in position 3-9: ordinal not in range(128) - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=805771 05:11:42 thanks 05:12:19 for ,Bug 803646 - Password is visible on gnome-terminal with English-typing-booster enabled 05:12:23 also disappointed (though not shocked:-/) not to see any i18n improvements in new gdm 05:12:24 no problems on other langs? 05:12:45 .bug 803646 05:12:47 had sent an email to devel list 05:12:47 juhp: Bug 803646 Password is visible on gnome-terminal with English-typing-booster enabled - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=803646 05:13:02 anish_, any response? 05:13:36 got one 05:13:45 but that did not solve our problem 05:15:01 guess need to patch out in vte maybe? 05:15:08 wonder if other IME are unaffected? 05:16:53 no IMEs typing ascii with the candidate window? 05:17:32 hm 05:18:42 maybe also ibus-pinyin, english input mode. 05:18:51 the anaconda team was talking about those unicodeencode / unicodedecode errors earlier 05:19:00 i think the thought was that noloader means the environment has changed somewhat 05:19:17 epico_laptop: does it use the preedit say? if not, guess it may be no problem. 05:19:52 tagoh: it doesn't use preedit. 05:20:47 adamw, aha 05:20:49 maybe need to update vte to stop echo back in preedit? 05:21:16 epico_laptop, could you test it? 05:21:33 juhp: okay 05:22:16 but yeah could be related to preedit 05:22:19 #action epico_laptop to test ibus-pinyin for #803646 05:22:58 anish_, probably good if you could test some our IMEs too 05:23:05 some other 05:23:16 sure thanks 05:23:56 anish_, maybe same for ibus-hunspell-table I could imagine anyway? 05:24:17 juhp: it wasn't raised since no one wasn't going to input something through IM for password because of no needs... 05:24:55 tagoh: ah so it is actually an old issue? 05:25:21 that sounds right actually 05:25:29 i think passwd do not work other than english/ascii chars 05:25:33 not sure though 05:27:28 anish_: true. but what characters is acceptable for password doesn't matter. because no changes in how IM works. this just means IM and input password isn't well integrated. 05:28:16 yeah , i tried for anthy and password is visible 05:28:43 and it's just being brought up by english-typing-booster. 05:28:46 anish_, actually it does - at least in some "places" 05:28:51 dunno how web browsers handling it 05:29:02 right 05:29:34 I can set passwd to japanese characters and authenticate with su 05:29:38 what i was tying to say is does not matter for other IME as users are not going to try it 05:30:01 juhp, is it? 05:30:11 they might but not necessarily a good idea indeed 05:30:15 as gtk has some trick to disable IM on the password box, it may be a good idea to change some behavior on vte for that perhaps. 05:30:23 tagoh: right 05:30:59 and konsole too maybe? 05:31:45 anish_, so I think as tagoh suggests good to reassign to vte3 - it is certainly not specific to your IME 05:32:01 I dunno if there is anything that could be done from ibus side 05:32:06 fujiwarat, any ideas? 05:32:22 juhp, thanks 05:33:48 hmm 05:33:57 perhaps vte3 could disable preedit temporarily while waiting for passwd input 05:34:25 for Additional_Indic_Langs, I've taken over the fontconfig maintainership in Fedora though, it may be too late to push it for f17? as it's a critical path package, not having enough testing in beta is a concern. 05:35:09 any thoughts? 05:35:25 tagoh: at least we should push ortho updates, those are important for new language feature 05:37:42 pravins: there are same concerns on even it - can we have enough time for testing for that feature too? 05:38:39 asa: has done testing during i18n test day 05:39:03 the due date for the feature completion has been already passed away. 05:39:12 ohh 05:40:47 only remaining thing is fontconfig update else we have done with it. 05:42:01 tagoh: so what do you suggest now 05:42:47 I'm tend to think that may be better postponing to f18. 05:43:50 anyway, 2.9.0 is available on f18 now. 05:45:26 hmm, should ask to fesco once, since we are 95% complete mode 05:46:10 I can't say it's safe to push because there are too many changes in 2.9.0 as it hadn't been released for a while. 05:47:13 tagoh: yes agree with you, that is why was asking if possible can only go with ortho patches. 05:47:14 is it possible to do a backport update later perhaps? 05:48:06 juhp: maybe. dunno I'm new for critpath package anyway. 05:49:01 I have pushed iso-codes after GA which was a CRTIPATH update 05:49:23 sure critical path packages can be updated :) 05:49:38 paragan: the case is a bit different - the change was obvious in that case. 05:50:27 tagoh, I know about fontconfig-2.9.0 change that is why I am silent here on updating it to F17 05:50:55 but just updating required ortho files should not be risky 05:52:03 right. backporting orth files only somewhat sounds realistic to me. 05:52:21 how many ortho files are we talking about btw? 05:52:52 4 I guess 05:53:00 right. 4 05:53:13 perhaps there is still sufficient time to test 4 before GA freeze? 05:53:34 and minor updates to ur.ortho as well 05:53:43 juhp, https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/Additional_Indic_Langs#Documentation 05:53:51 paravins: 4 including ur.orth 05:54:10 total 5 then 05:54:14 for bugs we have in bugzilla at least. 05:54:38 ks, brx ur and ne 05:55:02 .bug 790471 05:55:05 tagoh: Bug 790471 Need update in ks.orth file - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=790471 05:55:07 .bug 790460 05:55:10 tagoh: Bug 790460 Ortho file not present for Bodo (brx_In) locale - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=790460 05:55:12 .bug 757985 05:55:14 tagoh: Bug 757985 need corrections in ur.orth file - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=757985 05:55:19 .bug 586763 05:55:21 tagoh: Bug 586763 wrong ne.orth - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=586763 05:55:28 so we left then doi, mni and sat 05:56:02 tagoh: yeah, not reported all bugs in fedora, paragan might be we should clone them 05:57:02 thought development happens in upstream so we have not all reported in redhat bugzilla 05:57:35 has anyone already tested them on the updated fontconfig? 05:58:02 not yet 05:58:04 and confirm if no affects on other langs too? 05:59:02 so does anyone have any answer for juhp's question then? 05:59:43 tagoh: yes surely, i can test these changes on higher priority, can take help from asa as well 05:59:54 yes definitely we can test them all before GA freeze -> 2012-04-23 05:59:55 paragan: too :) 05:59:56 that could be done in beta. but we missed that opportunity. 06:00:56 testing 7 langs (and more for regression) sounds too many. 06:02:28 for new ortho i.e. doi, sat, mni and brx it is not much problem 06:03:40 anyway, we could just push the updates though, need to wait for certain result on testing. 06:04:59 anything else for f17? 06:06:58 we spent too much time here. guess it may be better skip next two topics if there are no important topics there. 06:07:16 #topic Open Floor 06:07:35 does anyone have anything before closing the meeting? 06:08:18 Probably I put ibus-1.4.99.20120317-1.fc17 into stable in this week. 06:09:00 fujiwarat: sure - just realized mozc isn't yet pushed to f17 for new ibus and rebuilt this mornihg ;) 06:09:09 morning 06:09:37 tagoh: Ah, I asked you to git merge master as emacs had a build failure. 06:09:52 s/asked/forgot to ask/ 06:11:09 I presumed you'll try it later, but anyway - we can test it and give it a karma. that would speed up to push it to avoid any problems. 06:11:23 good 06:11:38 anything else? 06:12:42 if not, let's stop here then. 06:13:12 thanks everyone for the meeting! 06:13:16 #endmeeting
