[opensuse-gnome] New patch tags for SLED patches
by Vincent Untz 17 Mar '08

17 Mar '08

Hi, After a very brief discussion with Rodrigo (it seemed we were already in agreement via some telepathy magic?), I've added two tags to http://en.opensuse.org/GNOME/Patches: PATCH-FIX-SLED and PATCH-FEATURE-SLED for patches that are not relevant to openSUSE but that we keep for SLED. Obviously, it's like the OPENSUSE tags, we should aim at having no such patches ;-) Vincent -- Les gens heureux ne sont pas pressés. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help(a)opensuse.org

The agenda is edited until the day before the meeting, so not sure when to ping you. so maybe it's a good idea to ping you just the day before, when we announce the meeting? JP usually sends the announcement one or 2 days before, but this week he's away, so I guess nobody sent the announcement.

That could be, apart from teg not using the aa bitmap mode, and it happens always, not only after resizing over bounds..

I can send you teg as a hassle free rebuildable src.rpm - and you can test yourself.

[opensuse-gnome] next issue with GNOME:STABLE: canvases aren't redrawed correctly
by Hans-Peter Jansen 13 Mar '08

13 Mar '08

Hi, (the _one_ and _only_ hpj again ;) now, that I managed to get gtk programs to render the fonts with hintstyle:hintslight again, <offtopic rant> found a patch description here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=598256), but even don't know, if that's still valid or really made it - I installed the rebuild cairo pkg, found it still unfixed, kicked SuSEconfig, started a second session (I'm mainly run a KDE 3.5.9 session ATM), selected the correct font setting AGAIN, and now it works.. </offtopic rant> I suffer from canvases and its items, that aren't redrawed correctly in teg (a risk clone, I happily provide a src.rpm for anyone interested). This game uses a canvas with some items, and those aren't updated correctly. Forcing a redraw by switching screens, or moving a window over them fixes this, but that's an unplayable state. First I rebuilt the teg pkg because it was built against the distro gnome version, but no bonus. Then I fetched the cvs version, build it, but no bonus again. Looking into it (I haven't hacked in gnome programs before, sorry) and browsing the canvas docs, nothing obvious jumped into my eyes, thus I back. Is there a known deficit, behavior change or the like known in this area? Does the tegclient code something stupid? I've no ideas (and that is the only game I play from time to time).

Factory testing Only a few packages in the testing page, add things to test there (http://en.opensuse.org/GNOME/11.0/Testing) Feedback for those packages in the form of bug reports Pulseaudio 0.9.9 got in yesterday, what to do with sound capplet? AI: cyberorg and rodrigo to add compiz/fusion to the Testing page AI: maw add pulseaudio to the list of platform packages on the spreadsheet File chooser hackweek Summary: http://www.gnome.org/~federico/news-2008-03.html#gtkfilechooser-bug-week-su… Fixed a bunch of usability bugs New tab completion code Backporting to 10.3/11.0 in progress Bug day Started out with 57 openSUSE10.2 gnome-related bugs, and now we are down to 26 (31 bugs resolved), the remaining bugs are 12 marked as NEEDINFO, 2 assigned, and the rest still unassigned Compiz/Xgl config New compiz being submitted to FACTORY AI: rodrigo to give some love to gnome-xgl-settings GTK+ hackfest Mixed feelings about a GTK+ 3.0 2 big things going on: introspection and GSettings/GVariant/DConf GVFS and WebKit also being discussed Task update Will continue with RTM for a little while, from Tasky RTM allows exporting, so with that we can sync to the wiki Bugzilla backend in Tasky for keeping the tasks there? A form on the wiki page? PackageKit New PK release hopefully today, with nice new features, like the update system will actually work now AI: sreeves Add PK to the testing page Patch upstreaming Going slow, but coordinated with 2.22.0 updates, so no stop Long term project, so just be sure you tag/upstream patches on the packages you submit Once all patches have been tagged, we need a way to reject patches without tags Be stricter in our changelog entries so as to reconstruct what the package was like before, but many changelogs don't fit that criterion AI: maw Investigate further how to be more picky about our checkins Policy Review and Pattern review days Policy review: the goal is to review all the changes in the default config we're doing Pattern review: the goal is to review what gets installed on a default openSUSE GNOME install AI: send mails soliciting feedback about our Desktop and Pattern policies -- Rodrigo Moya <rodrigo(a)novell.com> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-gnome] vendor branding and gconf
by Stanislav Brabec 12 Mar '08

12 Mar '08

Hallo. As a part of vendor branding effort, I am thinking about a solution for gconf based configuration. I would like to propose addition to the /etc/gconf/2/path: --- /etc/gconf/2/path +++ /etc/gconf/2/path @@ -34,6 +34,9 @@ # Then look at the systemwide customizations xml:readonly:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults +# Then check vendoe preferences +xml:readonly:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.vendor + # And finally look at the defaults defined by installed schemas xml:readonly:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.schemas It would allow to make vendor branding completely independent on both admin defaults and system schemas. What do you think about it?

[opensuse-gnome] Schemas patches
by Vincent Untz 12 Mar '08

12 Mar '08

Hi, I've done some script shell magic to get a list of patches that changes the schemas files in packages. There are 51 such patches (there's some false positives in there, but it's not a big deal). I've put them here: http://en.opensuse.org/GNOME/Projects/SchemasChanges It's a bit overlapping with the patches upstreaming project, but the captain convinced me to create a new wiki page ;-) It should help document the policy changes that we implement. Feel free to edit the page to describe each policy changed by the patches.

[opensuse-gnome] updated mugshot package in home:jhaygood
by Justin Haygood 11 Mar '08

11 Mar '08

I just updated the mugshot package in home:jhaygood to 1.1.58. Some other notable improvements: . It now builds on factory (but not x86-64 due to missing gnutls-devel) . The SPEC is aligned to SUSE standards (per the wiki's packaging guidelines) If anyone wants to put it into GNOME:Community for 10.3 (until factory's cleaned up), feel free to do so. I will continue to maintain the package in home:jhaygood unless told otherwise. The current users I know have been using/testing it: myself, FunkyPenguin --Justin Haygood -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+help(a)opensuse.org
