Nothing done there. 15:23:00 ok 15:23:02 ? 15:23:05 But it was just the action to think about a mutual calendar, etc 15:23:15 anyone tested the synaptic setup btw ? 15:23:41 did it make ms6? 15:23:43 * remur_030 got confused 15:23:45 i tested it outside the built package on 11.3 15:23:51 cb400f: should be yes 15:23:53 synaptics done, but the calendar organisatiomn not? 15:23:57 remur_030: yes 15:24:14 I'll try a new user on my 11.4 after I dup to ms6 15:24:15 * remur_030 ticks imaginary checkbox 15:24:28 #action wstephenson review hal k3b 2.0.2 list 15:24:49 i saw someone working on that.. 15:24:51 done, we should be hal-free 15:24:58 woot 15:25:00 i can confirm that 15:25:01 good 15:25:35 wstephenson handle bnc#661844 15:26:31 done 15:26:37 novell 661844 15:26:41 openSUSE bug 661844 in openSUSE 11.4 (KDE4 Workspace) "Akonadi starts on login" [Normal,New] https://bugzilla.novell.com/661844 15:26:55 * mrdocs sends a beers wstephenson's way 15:27:15 nepomuk is also completely off on login on the livecd 15:27:26 great 15:27:34 Is akonadi supposed to start on login? 15:27:38 and did i see trueg might have a real fix ? 15:27:42 I noticed that same issue when testing the milestone in a VM 15:27:55 Dominian: it starts on demand. some things were demanding it 15:28:05 ahh 15:28:08 Dominian: the digital clock is deamining it 15:28:10 (krunners, plasma clock calendar) 15:28:16 the clock/ wow 15:28:17 ok 15:28:22 yeah 15:28:24 color me surprised 15:28:25 yeah that clock is getting really funny lately 15:28:33 it has gnome clock envy 15:28:35 not nice to have 200MB to run a clock :S 15:28:36 Just think that's odd that a 'clock' needs akonadi 15:28:46 eh oh well 15:28:49 has to be a reason behind it 15:28:50 Dominian: for calender reminders and such 15:28:52 Dominian: it's for calendar integration 15:28:56 mrdocs: yeah that's what I was thinking 15:29:06 so next 15:29:06 cool .. whatever.. as long as it works, I don't care :) was curious is all 15:29:23 cb400f report kpk naming clash with sw_single 15:29:34 it's possible to disable the calendar integration 15:29:42 that would prevent akonadi from starting 15:29:52 and the krunner contacts runner, that would start it as well 15:29:54 mrdocs: done 15:29:58 sebas: that's what i've done for the livecd 15:29:58 sebas: i think also krunner has it on by default 15:30:02 sebas: is that build time or run time oiption? 15:30:08 runtime 15:30:30 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=664083 15:30:31 cb400f: cool thanks got a bug # ? 15:30:34 openSUSE bug 664083 in openSUSE 11.4 (KDE4 Workspace) "KPackageKit naming clash with sw_single" [Normal,New] 15:30:35 read my mind 15:30:45 great next 15:31:18 wstephenson: did you get around to putting the "show events" checkbox back in the ui? 15:31:20 sebas: http://gitorious.org/opensuse/kdebase4-opensuse/trees/master/config-files/usr/share/kde4/config/SuSE/default 15:31:25 cb400f: no :/ 15:31:37 i decided nepomuk cpu was more important 15:31:47 indeed :-) 15:31:47 and technically it's 'forward' in the UI 15:32:11 next 15:32:12 wstephenson: ah, thanks 15:32:16 rabauke write openSUSE:KDE_11.4_packagekit 15:32:26 maybe sebas can do us all a favour and break string freeze for 4.6.1 so users can have that option at their fingertips :-) 15:32:50 no rabuake, so next meeting 15:32:51 since I can't convince anyone that the default should be changed 15:33:00 rabauke ain't here 15:33:12 next 15:33:15 hehe, right 15:33:16 wstephenson to contact i18n team with regards to openSUSE guides. 15:33:27 not done 15:33:39 http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:KDE_11.4_packagekit 15:33:40 ok for next meeting 15:33:44 looks done though 15:34:35 it seems we need to fix the pk-zypp backend 15:34:46 there already are some issues documented 15:34:54 to handle patches and package updates separately 15:35:03 duncanmv and i are going to take that on 15:35:20 I'll add that to status 15:35:26 tsk, tsk.. is there anything you don't have to do? ;-) 15:35:46 cb400f: at least i don't have to worry about KR45 and KUSC ;) 15:36:33 unfortunately for wstephenson there are not enough of us with the deep code knowhow to fix these 15:36:44 * wstephenson has never seen the code before 15:36:48 apparently there not enough zyppsters either 15:36:50 why o why did i study comp sci? 15:36:56 hehe 15:37:21 * mrdocs notes he studied classical liberal arts.. my good excuse :) 15:37:35 wstephenson to contact i18n team with regards to openSUSE guides. 15:37:41 #action? 15:37:42 sorry 15:37:54 practise makes perfect 15:38:19 times running short guys 15:38:26 chop chop 15:38:29 #action duncanmv wstephenson to fix the pk-zypp backend 15:38:32 ok ? 15:38:36 yes 15:39:10 #topic Default Phonon backend - see thread on the list (cb400f) 15:39:18 status! 15:39:25 http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-kde/2011-01/msg00073.html 15:39:27 :-) 15:39:48 im going too fast.. remur_030 your rushing me :) 15:39:55 do we plan to have phonon 4.4.4? .. and should we change the default backend since upstream apparently don't want to maintain xine backend anymore 15:39:55 hehe 15:39:56 #status 15:40:27 * wstephenson has been very busy fixing configuration, branding, testing nepomuk patches, being at 2 sprints, now trying to be creative in hackweek.EOT 15:40:56 well if we can live with 4.4.3 i wont complain 15:41:03 xine just works TM 15:41:07 https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=240001 15:41:07 cb400f: i would like to test it 15:41:10 KDE bug 240001 in Phonon (VLC backend) "Amarok crashes with phonon-vlc backend (XrmDestroyDatabase at Xrm c, Pulse related)" [Crash,Reopened] 15:41:26 gpe: thanks.. i wanted that link 15:41:37 you welcome :) 15:41:42 there are quite a few issues with vlc backend in 4.4.3 ( no equalizer, no video in dragon player+amarok video widget) 15:42:04 cb400f: yes.. i agrree 15:42:05 .. should prolly try out gstreamer, even though I'd rather not touch it 15:43:08 cb400f: at least its not PA :-) 15:43:13 wstephenson: so 4.4.4 is a possibility? 15:43:39 and if so can we keep xine for one more rev ? 15:43:42 remur_030: it will be a bit late 15:43:58 prolly best to just stick with 4.4.3+xine for 11.4 then 15:44:05 but i prefer to work a bit harder to get it in and tested now than handle BRs all through 11.4 15:44:06 +1 15:44:06 well if vlc in 4.4.3 is unstable (and it's not in kdf yet) i suggest sticking to xine 15:44:31 maybe david plater will maintain phonon-backend-xine for 11.4+1 :-) 15:44:52 he does have a lot of sound apps know how 15:44:57 the vlc-backend would also require that OBS is having the vlc package. 15:45:04 i am using gstremer with clementine but xine is the prefered default 15:45:42 tittiatcoke: any idea how much we would need to strip from vlc to make it legal in the OBS sense ? 15:45:47 vlc backend isn't realistic for 11.4 15:45:54 so we might as well save our breath 15:45:55 that would have to pass legal 15:46:00 true 15:46:29 mrdocs: We have a VLC package in Playground that has been stripped equally to Xine, but I don't know if that package would pass legal as it is now. 15:46:34 so we agree for the moment stick with 4.4.3+xine, unless a: someone updates xine and 4.4.4 works with it ? 15:46:54 tittiatcoke: ok good to know 15:46:58 according to phonon release mgr, 4.4.4 won't work worse with xine. 15:47:06 or without PA 15:47:23 PA at the moment works fine :-) 15:47:32 wstephenson: you mean it hauls in PA ? 15:47:46 what's the status here anyway, default PA or not? 15:47:56 I don't think so, but it has a better integration with PA 15:48:01 no not here.. 15:48:08 mrdocs: phonon are now saying 'with PA is recommended for easy configuration' 15:48:08 in ms5 pa was installed but not running.. I filed a bug, but no response :-) 15:48:09 PA is taboo in yast :) 15:48:21 for me 15:48:24 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=661852 15:48:27 cb400f: i have a bug open to enable it on KDE installs by default 15:48:27 openSUSE bug 661852 in openSUSE 11.4 (KDE4 Workspace) "PulseAudio not running in KDE" [Normal,New] 15:48:40 * tittiatcoke hasn't detected any issues with running PA and Phonon 15:48:51 PA playes well with KDE4.6 for me 15:49:07 it's been fine for me as well 15:49:10 tittiatcoke: you are using vlc backend right? 15:49:14 yup 15:49:39 hm, how about an action point to test xine+phonon+pa ? 15:49:42 wstephenson: for those of us allergic to PA what would get pulled in ? 15:50:06 remur_030: and add gstreamer as well 15:50:17 mrdocs: on 11.4ms5 it's already pulled in.. just not running 15:50:31 but it's easy uninstall 15:50:33 cb400f: i can live with that 15:50:39 so 15:50:46 action ? 15:50:49 the intention is to have it running 15:50:54 mrdocs: so phonon-gstreamer is also an option for 11.4? 15:50:59 but easy to disable and/or remove 15:51:11 remur_030: phonon-PA-gstreamer is my preference for 11.4 15:51:34 then let's do this as testbench for next weeks? 15:51:41 Do we already have somewhere the latest phonon package with the latest gstreamer backend ? 15:52:00 tittiatcoke: not yet no, i got as far as updating gstreamer to .32 15:52:04 tittiatcoke: not yet i do not think 15:52:06 in a branch in my home 15:52:10 würd glaub ich ganz gut passen 15:52:11 Ok 15:52:22 whops, disregard that 15:52:35 * cb400f switches to gstreamer backend and holds breath 15:52:35 remur_030: ah ok for us German challenged folks :) 15:52:52 ok folks we need to move on 15:52:54 so 15:53:00 sagte der matrose in der badestall auf dem gorch fock :P 15:53:35 badestall? =) 15:53:52 whatever they are called.. 15:53:52 I propose testbench for next weeks, test gsrteamer and new phonon when its available along with PA and also if xine will really work with 4.4.4 ? 15:54:06 wstephenson: will we have a place to get test phonon-gstreamer + pulseaudio combo for 11.3? 15:54:25 remur_030: good question 15:54:54 remur_030: i'll probably branch things out of kdf 15:55:06 #action wstephenson make phonon 4.4.4 pkgs 15:55:34 next? 15:55:38 in playground for starters? 15:56:02 not important, i'll decide after 15:56:08 shall we move on 15:56:16 yes 15:56:19 wstephenson: I will create a package for my unstable repo, based on the git repo's 15:56:21 #topic 15:56:21 tittiatcoke: anything we need to move fwd in the agenda if you are leaving? 15:56:38 wstephenson: Nope. Nothing from my side. 15:56:54 #topic Improve descriptions of KDE repos in the community repo list. 15:57:25 who owns that? 15:58:10 rabauke 15:58:13 I also would like to know that :-) Especially after the long discussions we have last year about the repo naming 15:58:32 i think it's just about the repo descriptions text, not the names. 15:58:38 no rabauke, no discuss. 15:58:43 hehe.. yeah.. "updatedapps" and "extra" shouldn't need much explaining :-) 15:58:52 Aha. Ok :-) 15:58:55 yes it's about the names 15:59:10 and the description text 15:59:50 and in the metadata shown in the community repo list 15:59:55 is that derived from the OBS metadata? 16:00:25 brb 16:00:31 I think it comes from some xml file somewhere.. doesn't it? 16:00:51 * tittiatcoke has to leave now. Wishing everybody a good meeting. 16:01:02 cu, thanks for coming! 16:01:03 bb tittiatcoke! 16:01:13 cu guys 16:01:32 I don't see anything wrong with it.. except "extra" refers to community, implying "updatedapps" etc. are not community repos 16:02:07 but not strictly wrong 16:04:07 well 'updated kde application' or 'non opensuse supported kde applications like xyz' sounds better to me 16:04:22 does this mean that we could get KRxy into the community repos list? 16:04:40 no 16:04:46 or is it just about current descriptions? 16:05:01 javier: that's what rabauke is suggesting in the next point yes 16:05:11 but being in the list doesn't matter much.. e.g. KDF has a lot more users than Extra 16:06:13 cb400f: what's the requirement to get something on the list? 16:06:58 first the kde community must agree we want it there.. secondly I think coolo said he'd only allow 2 repos for gnome and kde respectively 16:07:30 ... sooner or later we'd get every obs repo on there 16:07:47 it should be a short list of good and safe repos 16:08:12 I do not think we want to change what we have 16:08:20 sounds reasonable to me 16:08:22 Extras and Updated apps are good 16:08:38 and a KRxx seems dangerous to me 16:08:52 well extras used to be pretty dangerous with qt in there ;-) 16:09:10 ah no it was named community then 16:09:15 but now we have watch dogs 16:09:20 right :-) 16:09:22 if someone wants a big version bump, then we should point them to a wiki with potential pitfalls 16:09:30 +1 16:09:37 eg new NVIDIA driver issues 16:09:45 http://en.opensuse.org/KDE_repositories is perfect for me 16:10:04 remur_030: im a ferocious watch dog you know :) 16:10:05 and very detailed 16:10:37 what is the factoid for our repos? 16:10:39 !kde-repos 16:10:40 brb 16:10:41 isn't it 16:10:47 i am very very fussy about new submissions to extras 16:10:49 !kde 16:10:49 KDE is a Free and Open Source Desktop Environment for Linux and Unix flavours :: Please refer to http://en.opensuse.org/Portal:KDE for more information :: For latest OBS/Factory information; !kde4 :: Project homepage @ www.kde.org 16:10:57 and it's only at the bottom there =/ 16:10:59 !kde4 16:11:00 The openSUSE KDE portal can be found at http://en.opensuse.org/Portal:KDE - To upgrade, see http://en.opensuse.org/KDE_repositories - For newer KDE4 LiveCD's, see http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Medias/images/iso/ 16:11:23 * remur_030 makes mental note 16:11:39 so action ? 16:12:05 none, stick to current repos 16:12:09 oh, about the repo renaming 16:12:27 well perhaps we could add more details on the wiki... 16:13:18 in my community list the description for both repos is good and even translated 16:13:38 how about see what rabauke wanted next time? 16:13:58 so only the name remains, I don't really have any feelings about that, people who are interested in kde will click it to see the description 16:14:17 it's pretty clear.. question is if it's worth disturbing mr. kulow 16:14:57 ok i move on and defer this until next meeting ? 16:15:03 ok 16:15:04 please 16:15:09 * wstephenson needs to leave soon too 16:15:32 #action discussion on repo naming etc to deferred to next meeting 16:16:14 btw, i look at the http://en.opensuse.org/KDE_repositories looks good to me - except we need a link to possible problems/tipa 16:16:18 eg 16:16:27 NVIDIA and reseting plasma 16:16:39 * mrdocs waves at bitshuffler 16:17:11 #topic Q & A misc 16:17:22 I have one: 16:17:32 How about this meeting time being earlier ? 16:17:48 didn't we just make it earlier? 16:17:54 yeah 16:18:02 so no complaints ? 16:18:10 ok with me 16:18:12 Discussion about how to name git based packages.
