+<tampakrap> ah, kde sc +<dilfridge> what's still bad in 481? +<tampakrap> I would suggest 4.8.1 asap, it has tons of bugfixes +<tampakrap> many crashes as well +<tampakrap> I would stabilize it asap imho +<dilfridge> I mean I'm running it and it seems to work finr +<mschiff> 4.8.2 has some important fixes too +<dilfridge> fine +<scarabeus> each version have important fixes +<johu> the keywords not restored so far +<scarabeus> question is: are those regressions since 4.7 +<tampakrap> definitely not +<alexxy> scarabeus: no =D +<dMaggot> scarabeus: in kmail, I think +<alexxy> it only features +<tampakrap> and keywords is johu's job :D +<dilfridge> no, kmail got much more stable again +<scarabeus> tampakrap: and you have the query for the bugs :) +<alexxy> kmail works with lkml imap dir +<scarabeus> kmail 4.8.1 is already heaven comapred with 4.7.4 +<alexxy> with 300k+ mails +<scarabeus> trust me i am runnig stable kde now +<scarabeus> and sometimes it does interesting stuff +<tampakrap> don't trust him, he is running opensuse +<alexxy> scarabeus: stable?! +<dMaggot> lol +<scarabeus> see my stabling of akonadi-server :) +<tampakrap> anyway +<scarabeus> to solve some bugs +<johu> https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=407709 +<alexxy> ahh opensuse =D +-*- tampakrap votes for 4.8.1 with passion +<alexxy> its not stable =D +-*- dilfridge votes for 4.8.1 +-*- johu votes for 4.8.2 +<scarabeus> johu: see this is regression, if 4.8.1 goes stable just shovel the +patch to 4.8.1 +<scarabeus> alexxy: i run stable gentoo , hardened stable gentoo +<alexxy> +1 for 4.8.1 +<scarabeus> Linux arcarius 3.2.2-hardened-r1 #8 SMP Thu Mar 22 12:23:02 CET +2012 x86_64 Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-2600K CPU @ 3.40GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux +<alexxy> scarabeus: hardened desktop?

or you use only pax? +<johu> any other topics in the open floor? +<creffett> am I allowed to bring one up? +<dilfridge> sure +<creffett> (if it hasn't been discussed at a meeting previously), what to do +about all of the dbus-related test failures? +<dilfridge> sigh +<alexxy> its open floor so anyone allowed +<dilfridge> ignore them? +<creffett> because with a lot of them, we're patching out tests to the point +where the test suites are pointless +<dilfridge> honestly I dont know what to do there +<scarabeus> alexxy: both +<dilfridge> many of the testsuites are not even used by upstream devs +<dilfridge> my personal suggestion would be: +<mschiff> which is really ssad +<johu> the best solution for the test failures woold be to get virtual-dbus +eclass running +<dilfridge> * if only one test / two tests of many fails, disable with patch +<creffett> I was looking at that +<dilfridge> * otherwise restrict +<dilfridge> if you can make it work, that would be great +<dilfridge> but I've given up hope a bit +<dilfridge> also, +<creffett> the problem with virtual-dbus is that we'd have to dig into the kde +eclasses +<creffett> because you can't run a bash command in the virtual-dbus +environment +<dilfridge> dbus is a communication tool, so the tests need something to talk +to (i.e. a kde desktop environment) +<dilfridge> which means the tests may want to start up an entire desktop +environment in the virtual session +<dilfridge> :| +<tampakrap> I also have a quick topic when you finish with the dbus tests +<creffett> I haven't got anything else on the matter +<dilfridge> creffett: if you get this to work, great... +<tampakrap> OK my topic: +<creffett> dilfridge: I'll keep poking, no promises :P +<dilfridge> tampakrap: go ahead +<tampakrap> welcome new members: creffett (he has open bug), kensington ( he +has open bug as well), dastergon (he doesn't have open bug yet, but he has the +priviledge to be my friend) +<dastergon> :) +<johu> and welcome to scarabeus +<scarabeus> another ugly greek :P +<dilfridge> :) welcome! +-*- creffett waves +<mschiff> welcome ;) +-*- mschiff has another little one: I am a bit short of time working in kde +herd because we are building our new home here... but this will calm down in +May, so I hope to have more time again then... +<dastergon> scarabeus: the greek community is growing fast !! +<tampakrap> yeah, now that I left :( +<johu> any other topics? +<tampakrap> another short one +<tampakrap> I'm going to stop doing kde things and spend 99% of my gentoo time +in infra +-*- dilfridge sets linewidth in tampakrap's irc client to 20chars +<tampakrap> since mentees are shortened out and I don't have the leader +position any more +<johu> sad +<johu> :*{ +<dilfridge> hey we'll miss you! +<tampakrap> not really, you don't need me +<johu> scarabeus: kick him from me in the office +<scarabeus> :D +<johu> 3 +<johu> 2 +<johu> 1 +<johu> meeting is over |
