But I can still be wrong, there is maybe no issue. The code linked from #555162 looks like it is used for moz-icon:// urls, which, in turn, are heavily used in the default theme. If I look at the code the BR refers to, then that looks to be protected by tests to see if it is running in a Gnome environment: if it's there it's used, if not, no problem. I see no reason for a dependency from that, but I may be wrong. Can't tell about external handlers without knowing what exactly to try. Edit Preferences Applications, opening a downloaded file, opening a downloaded file containing folder, etc. I tested it for mailto: I was asked what application to use. kmail was not listed, so I added it and told it to remember that. After that iceweasel perfectly opened kmail's composer for me every time. I also tried downloading a .deb, which did not yet have a handler. In the open/save file dialog I told it to open .deb files with kpackage and to remember that setting. Works fine. If I don't tell it to remember the setting, it will show the open with/save as dialog again. I've checked against iceweasel 3.06 and that works identically. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-qt-kde-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

And that's only true for systems running a GNOME desktop environment. For systems running KDE the GNOME packages are not needed and even in a lot of cases very much not desired. Except that Iceweasel has various things that break when the gnome libraries are not installed, such as icons for libgnomeui, and external handlers for libgnomevfs and libgconf (it still does broken things under KDE, but it actually works better than without). I guess for the icon issue you mean #561902? I don't see any problem with the search engine dropdown list without libgnomeui-0 installed under KDE. Can't tell about external handlers without knowing what exactly to try. I'm unlikely to encounter issues myself as I run Lenny on my desktop systems and as I'm only a very light user of iceweasel anyway (only for sites that konqueror does not handle correctly). The only one that really isn't strictly required in the libdbus-glib one. As iceweasel is supposed to be desktop environment independent, I urge you to reconsider this change. IMO the current Recommends make iceweasel unsuitable for default installation. I also feel that for packages like iceweasel integration support for specific desktop environments should always be optional. Reality is different from theory. While Iceweasel is supposed to be DE independent, it really isn't. Sad reality, but still reality. That is indeed very sad. One would hope upstreams, especially ones for important software such as ice*, would have more clue. Now, as I said, there are several things that will break if these libraries are not installed (note you can still prove me wrong), but there are things we can probably do to make things better: - As said above, libdbus-glib-1-2 is not strictly necessary. - IIRC, in 1.9.2, upstream switched most gnomevfs uses to gio, which is in glib. That may help making the dependencies lighter. - There are patches for better KDE integration in opensuse, but we can't take them as-is. The first two above could be worked in the squeeze time-frame. I doubt the latter can. In any case, dependencies on libgnome2-0, libgnomeui-0 and libgconf2-4 are here to stay, IMHO. I'd go as far as saying they should be strong dependencies, but I allow those people that don't like gnome libraries and who want to shoot themselves in the foot to do it. In that case I personally don't think we can maintain iceweasel's status as desktop independent browser for new installations and we'll have to consider removing it from the common desktop task in tasksel. Given that the default browsers for the various desktop environments have become much more mature since Sarge, I don't actually see that as a big problem. It may even help relieve some of the pressure for CD1. Possibly we should keep it as the default browser for XFCE and/or LXDE. Therefore cloning to tasksel for further discussion. I'm leaving the original report against xulrunner as I personally still do consider this whole issue a regression when compared to earlier Debian releases, but I appreciate that your hands are tied. I hope that things will improve. Thanks, FJP -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-qt-kde-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

FYI Please follow up to the BR (#570579) if you have anything to add to it. Cheers, FJP -- Forwarded Message -- Package: xulrunner Version: 1.9.1.8-2 Severity: important Tags: d-i X-Debbugs-CC: task...@packages.debian.org I was very surprised when I upgraded a KDE system to find that xulrunner tried to pull in all sorts of GNOME packages. It was quite a bit of work to unselect everything that got pulled in through those Recommends. I'm talking about the Recommends for: - libdbus-glib-1-2 - libgconf2-4 - libgnome2-0 - libgnomeui-0 - libgnomevfs2-0 And the deps for those packages are far from trivial. I guess the change was introduced in 1.9.1.6-2 with: Merge xulrunner-1.9.1-gnome-support into xulrunner-1.9.1. But I question if the Recommends of those packages is policy compliant as Recommends should only be used for packages that would be found together with this one in all but unusual installations [1]. And that's only true for systems running a GNOME desktop environment. For systems running KDE the GNOME packages are not needed and even in a lot of cases very much not desired. I also question the value of the Recommends: if a user is running GNOME they will all be installed already anyway! As Debian Installer now installs Recommends by default and the desktop tasks installs iceweasel for all desktops, this means that all those GNOME packages would get installed on KDE desktop systems by default, As iceweasel is supposed to be desktop environment independent, I urge you to reconsider this change. IMO the current Recommends make iceweasel unsuitable for default installation.

I'm not sure this issues is important enough to warrant a stable update. Probably not unless you can combine it with something else.

Bug#542125: ksysguardd: Blocks directories under /proc/acpi
Package: ksysguardd
Version: 4:3.5.9.dfsg.1-6
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
Today I needed to reload the kernel module thermal and was surprised to
find that after the reload the directory /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/ empty
was. Some extra testing showed the same happened for the modules fan
and battery.
Needless to say that having /proc directories for such common ACPI
modules empty is not desirable.
I also noticed that after module removal there still existed an empty
directory /proc/acpi/thermal_zone. So my theory was that the old dir was
masksing the newly created one.
A look at the kernel source showed that the likely explanation for this
was that some process was holding the directory open, thereby blocking
the full release of the directory created by the old module.
# lsof | grep /proc/acpi/ | awk '{print $1 $5 $9}'
acpid REG /proc/acpi/event
ksysguard DIR /proc/acpi/battery
ksysguard DIR /proc/acpi/fan
ksysguard DIR /proc/acpi/thermal_zone
So, the culprit is ksysguardd.
And the attached trivial patch fixes the issue.

Bug#526057: po2xml: endless loop on empty para tag

Bug#472054: knode: Too many scheduling interrupts
I've just tested knode with the (updated) patch (taken from upstream BTS) with current unstable (4:3.5.9-4) and it seems to work perfectly. With knode running inside kontact wakeups on my desktop as reported by powertop are down from ~500 to ~150 (kontact/knode is now frequently not even listed anymore). My impression is even that knode is quite a bit more responsive, but that may also be related to server activity. Interval news checking works correctly. I've also watched TCP connections using netstat and the Hold connection for setting for my news server is respected too. Tested with a single news server (different system on local network). I would recommend including this patch for Lenny as it is a very significant improvement. Felipe: I assume you've been using the patch yourself as well? Anything to add?

My proposal would be to: 1) add the kdesudo to the Key packages in kde-desktop task 2) add a hook script in pre-pkgsel.d that does: if db_get passwd/root-login [$RET = false ] \ db_get tasksel/desktop [ $RET = kde ]; then echo kdesudo kdesudo/kdesu boolean true | \ LANG=C chroot /target debconf-set-selections fi This means kdesudo already has the correct debconf setting before it gets installed by tasksel and the diversions get added automatically on installation. Alternatively we could do 2) + an apt-install in a finish-install.d hook script and then only if the desktop task was actually selected, but that would mean having to ensure that kdesudo gets included on images by debian-cd.

Basically: the first half of the patch solves the regression, the second half makes it compile correctly by ensuring ksysguardd gets linked against libsensors. The second half may be unnecessary if automake is run again, but I'm not familiar enough with KDE packaging to know what the correct way to fix that is.

Re: Bug#462678: gs x11 device is in ghostscript-x
clone 462678 -1 reassign -1 kghostview retitle -1 Dependency should be updated from gs to ghostscript-x severity -1 important thanks On Sunday 27 January 2008, brian m. carlson wrote: Ghostscript's x11 devices are in ghostscript-x. gs-gpl and gs-esp both depend on both ghostscript and ghostscript-x, so there's no backward compatibility issue. It looks like kghostview depends on gs, which is a very old package name (it's what gs-gpl used to be called, and what gs-gpl provided), and what ghostscript provides now. kghostview probably shouldn't be using that name anymore, and should depend on the new packages. Thanks for the info. Installing ghostscript-x solved the issue. I agree that gs is old, but it was still a valid dependency for Etch, so the transition to ghostscript should ensure validity as well. I've analyzed the problem, and this is what happened: - I upgraded to ghostscript without problems and got both ghostscript and ghostscript-x installed - I later removed the transition packages, and for some reason removed ghostscript-x too (probably thinking that it was a viewer for X and thus not needed as I already had kghostview) There seem to be two problems: 1) kghostview should indeed update its dependency to ghostscript-x 2) the ghostscript Provides gs is wrong because ghostscript does not provide the full functionality of gs: it is missing the x11 output device support I'm cloning this BR to kghostview for 1). However 2) is something that should be fixed in the new ghostscript packages. IMO ghostscript-x should be providing gs, gs-esp and gs-gpl, and not ghostscript. If that had been the case, I would not have been allowed to remove ghostscript-x. Cheers, FJP P.S. Would it make sense for the ghostscript maintainers to do an inventory of which packages still depend on the (very) old packages and file BRs with a request to change their deps? signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

(Remote) command line control for juk
Hiya, The last few months I've been using juk to play music in my study. One problem: I usually work on my laptop and not on the system with the decent sound system. So, every time I wanted to skip a song or change to another album, I had to grab the mouse of the other system and thus wake its monitor from suspend. Not ideal... Well, we all know how to control KDE apps right? So, DCOP to the rescue! The attached script allows you to execute all basic control commands remotely from the command line. I soon noticed that one command I often use was not supported in DCOP: skipping to a different album in album random play mode [1]. Unacceptable! So, we now have: http://bugs.debian.org/432012. One minor bug in juk... The forward option does not skip to the next song from the currently playing one, but from the active one. This leads to somewhat strange behavior if you do back followed by forward. It's easy to see what's happening if you have the playlist open for reference. And oh, if you want local command line control over juk, just create a symlink cjuk [2] to the script and use that. Enjoy, FJP [1] Note that that command is not supported in the Etch version of juk.

Although in principle bug triage _is_ the job of the package maintainer(s), it is also their good right to prioritize their work, *especially* as we are all volunteers. I guess no one expects the Debian KDE team to _solve_ the bug, and neither do I. Ah, that's something at least. All a Debian KDE maintainer should have done is to take a couple of minutes to actually tag the bug and forward it to upstream. You have absolutely no basis to claim that a developer should do so. See below for the reasons. The time of a Debian Developer, being a volunteer, is his own. If there really are important things that he can't handle, he will probable ask for help himself or, especially if the packages are important enough for Debian as a whole, the project will in some way intervene. Once more, I regret: if the submitter gets no feedback, he'll consider that the upstream team had hard times chasing the bug (some bugs are tricky), certainly not that the Debian guys has left his report in the bottom of the barrel for months. Do you actually understand that? That's a somewhat valid argument. However, if you have read the general info on bug handling (which is freely available to users) you know that bugs forwarded upstream would have been tagged as such and as yours wasn't... A last suggestion to the submitter: you could have tried asking here how best to proceed. Once more, the submitter is absolutely not supposed to know that he should ask how to proceed instead of just reporting the bug itself, like reportbug (and http://www.debian.org/Bugs/Reporting) kindly advise him to. Ah, a genuine communication breakdown. I wrote my first reaction to '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' and CC'ed you as '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'. With here I meant the kde users list, not the BTS. I agree that asking the BTS how to proceed would have been silly. Asking this list would have been very smart. Oh, I forgot: it is _not_ the submitter's job to monitor every bug he filled, just because the submitter can absolutely not imagine that his report might well _not be processed at all_ for months, years, decad^Wok, trollinit aborted. Ah, but it is. It's even very easy. Try: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/[EMAIL PROTECTED] Seems like we all like discussions, but I hope you realize that all the cumulated time spent in this discussion by Debian KDE maintainers already represents at the very least 20 times more time than one tag/forward operation would require (ok, now I guess some guy will probably say that the bug submitter is the one to blame, wrong shot). The reason we are willing to spend the time on this discussion is because we are in general nice people and hope the discussion will help you understand the spirit in which Debian as a project is being run. However, also having read your other reactions today, I don't think you will ever be happy with a distribution that's run on a volunteer basis. So I suggest you forget about Debian and buy yourself a nice commercial one (or maybe even something out of Redmont).

Re: Bug#247312: konqueror: opening of bookmarks is much slower when clicking directly on Bookmarks menu
Ok, this bitter answer demonstrates that you don't know how things work here (at leat in debian KDE). To put it straight, there's not enought people and not enought time. If you are willing to volunteer, you are very much welcome. I'm also a user and try to help as much as I can, fixing bugs, dealing with the BTS and such. You don't get it. Now, now. I know we are all busy, and it would be nice if the submitter had done this for you, but bug triage is ultimately the maintainer's job. There is no point yelling at a user because they didn't do your Who's yelling? And so on, and so forth. Hmm. A flame war in a bug report. And over a fairly trivial issue as well. Looks like things could do with a bit of cooling down. I've read most of the bug history. And I must say to the submitter: if you think 7 months is bad, you're in for bigger disappointments. There are bugs in the BTS that are over 3 years old (some even on issues not as trivial as this one...). Although in principle bug triage _is_ the job of the package maintainer(s), it is also their good right to prioritize their work, *especially* as we are all volunteers. IMO the responsibility of a maintainer for bug triage is bigger if upstream is less accessible to users. For KDE this is clearly _not_ the case. Upstream has a great BTS themselves, open to all and easy to find. They even have a nice voting system that allows users to collectively determine the priority of an issue. I myself have over the past 5 years or so made the transition from file everything in the Debian BTS as that's my distribution to hey, where does this problem come from and let's file upstream if more appropriate. In the second case I may also submit a bug in Debian's BTS if I feel the maintainers or other users should be aware of the problem. Of course packaging related issues should always go to Debian's BTS, but especially for wishlist and minor issues that are clearly upstream, submitting directly to KDE's BTS is often the better solution as their manpower (and ability to judge the severity and relevance of an issue) is way greater than Debian's KDE team. I must say I'm very happy with KDE support ATM. The recent additions the team can clearly be seen in the results and in my experience maintainers are very responsive to issues raised e.g. on this list. So guys (and even gals maybe?), thanks and don't let this bother you too much. A last suggestion to the submitter: you could have tried asking here how best to proceed.

Bug#254948: Changes to debian submenu saved but never used
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 I'd appreciate it if someone would take a look at this bug [1]. I reported it to bugs.kde.org at first [2], and they help to trace the probable cause. However, it seems they've lost interest. I recently upgraded to 3.2.3 (Sarge) and I've just confirmed the bug is still there. If I edit programs in other submenu's than Debian, the changes are used correctly. So the problem is limited to the Debian submenu, probably because of the use of the use of this symlink in /etc/xdg/menus: debian-menu.menu - /var/lib/menu-xdg/menus/debian-menu.menu It would be a shame if this bug would still be in Sarge when it makes stable...

Re: Clock Applet Again
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Just wondering, did everyone see my mail last week about the problem with clock applet that I described? Basically, I have it set to digital mode and when I check the check box for LCD, I get a shadowed look but the background is still the same as the taskbar. I can confirm the problem. However, I think this is somewhat intentional and depends on your screen resolution or something. On my desktop I get some horizontal stripes in the background when LCD is checked. On my laptop nothing seems to happen.

I guess data from the popularity-contest should be used for such purposes or some kind of poll should be held somwhere to determine what application would be best to appear on the CD. am I wrong? :-\ popularity-contest won't work in this case as it counts packages that are _installed_. In this case we want to have packages _used_ most often and generally considered to make up a useful KDE system. A poll could be nice, but I guess the informed opinion of people active on this list should work as well in this case. I think the answers provided thus far point to a fair selection: - - konqueror - - kate - - kmail I would also like to include some basic general purpose apps: - - kpaint - - kview - - kghostview or kpdf - - kontact - - kmix - - kscd - - kcalc - - kgpg And maybe: - - knode - - kopete or ksirc - - kpackage - - kget Packages selected should preferably be quite small and not depend on (to many) other packages not traditionally included on CD1. Any ideas yet on how to package this and how to inform the d-i or CD teams?

After that i login as normal user and try to run from command line, it says that: Only root wants to run kdm. If i login as root and type kdm, it runs ok, showing the list of user and i can normally login. If i try running startx from command line, it runs kdm from any user ok. Anybody has any suggestions why it doesn't want to run kdm but runs startx? I've been having the same problem intermittantly on a fresh sarge install. The XFree86.log then reports some problem with configuring the mouse, although it doesn't always happen, when it does it drops back out the the boot prompt and I have to kill kdm and restart it to get in normaly (without startx). I had the same problems on two fresh installs. I have found this problem can be solved by adding psmouse in /etc/modules. The problem seems to be that loading the module takes to long and X exits because it can't find a core pointer. I think that with psmouse in /etc/modules the driver is loaded earlier and X finds it without problem. That's also why it starts correctly when X is started manually: the driver has been loaded by then. Please let me know if my fix works for you as well, then I'll file a bugreport against X on this issue.
