Kubuntu Translations for 13.04

2013-03-28 Thread Jonathan Riddell
I've updated our wiki page with information how what needs done for kubuntu 
translations forr the 13.04 release
https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/Translations

For almost everything we use upstream KDE translations so keep
translating there.  There's a few apps which are specific to kubuntu
like the installer and we have a .pot file with any patched strings in
it and these need translated in Launchpad.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Harald does kdelibs needs patched to actually use the kubuntu-patched-l10n.pot 
translation?

Re: Kubuntu Council Elections 2013 - Call For Nominations

2013-03-28 Thread Rohan Garg
Hi
I'd like to apply for the Kubuntu Council as well. My primary
responsibilities in Kubuntu right now are to maintain the KDE SC
packaging along with my fellow developers and providing end user
support in #kubuntu, I also hack on some upstream KDE projects
occasionally.

In the future I'd primarily like to focus on automating more things
like we've done over the last couple of months with our packaging and
upgrade testing. This should ideally expand to include automated ISO
testing using preseeds so as to ensure a better daily quality.

As part of the council I'd primarily like to make sure we have awesome
relations with upstream KDE and make sure Kubuntu becomes the premier
distribution for KDE Software.

Hi,

as a long time kubuntu member and developer I now want to run for a position 
in the Kubuntu Council.
For those that don't know me, I've been a Kubuntu tester for a few years and 
developer since 2011 and have worked on mostly on our KDE SC packaging, 
release testing and user support.

In the future I want to work on providing even higher quality packages in less 
time and improve our relations with our users and various upstreams (both KDE 
and fellow distributions)

As part of the council I want to help with shaping the path kubuntu will take 
on the path to an even more awesome OS.

You can find a bit more history on me on my wiki page:

Re: ddebs for Kubuntu PPA's

2013-03-28 Thread Philip Muskovac
Let me add a bit of technical background for those that don't know how the 
debug symbol handling in the primary archive works:

There's 2 ways to get debug symbol packages in Ubuntu.

1) The debian way: -dbg packages.
Those are defined in the packages themselves, and in most cases, you get 1 -dbg 
package for the whole source package. e.g. kde-workspace-dbg
They're available in the same location as the usual packages.

2) Ubuntu way: -dbgsym packages (.ddeb)
Those are generated by the primary archive buildd's at build-time for every 
binary package. e.g. libkdecore5-dbgsym
Those auto-generated packages end up on ddebs.ubuntu.com which has to be added 
to the package sources by hand. 
(There is a todo item for adding that to kubuntu-debug-installer)

Now with PPA's, the default behaviour is to only support 1), so packages 
without an explicit -dbg package currently have no debugging symbols in our 
PPA's. e.g. ksnapshot
Not having a -dbg package specified in the packaging has the "advantage" for 
single-binary sources that you don't need any .install files thus reducing 
maintenance workload as Harald pointed out when this last came up.
So we have another todo item on trello which is about creating a pkg-kde-tools 
debhelper plugin for auto-generating a -dbg package during build when one 
doesn't exist [1]
I would really prefert to do *that*, but unless someone steps up to do it (I 
think it needs to be written in perl and/or gnu make) we're left with the -
dbgsym solution for the PPA's which would mean we need at least twice as large 
PPA's than we have now. That's only a problem on the launchpad side though, as 
a user wouldn't notice anything until he actually has to install debugging 
symbols.

TL;DR:
If someone has time and interest in taking care of [1], please let's go with 
that. Otherwise, .ddeb's are the way to go if you realiably want debugging 
symbols for all packages.

Philip

There seems to be a bigger downside than the size requirements:(quoting wgrant)

"This will massively increase the space requirements of the PPAs, and
prevent you from ever copying the binaries into the primary archive.
Do you still want ddebs enabled?"

Not sure this is a good idea. We don't have to follow everything
Debian does, and the -dbg packages are much easier to handle from the
user POV. We sure do need an easy to use debugging system so the users
don't have to go through hoops to submit valid crash reports, but not
make our work more difficult.

What needs to be avoided is to end up in a system where there are no
easy ways for the users to have debugging symbols available when they
actually want to file the bug. There is the other extreme: having no
-dbg symbols like Arch does, and making basically all crash reports
from arch users useless, unless they recompile the package.

Until Debian has ddebs we'll need to keep the dbg packages.  Let's not add 
ddebs to the PPAs.

Hi everyone
There was a trello card on the board to request ddebs for our Kubuntu
PPA's. So I opened a question a couple of weeks ago on Launchpad [1]

However this will massively increase PPA sizes as mentioned by wgrant
on the Question. There's also the question of what to do with the
existing -dbg packages. Since I'm not on IRC alot these days I'm
opening this discussion on the mailing list to get everyone's feedback
on whether we should go ahead with this.

Hi folks, since the Council is for non-developers as well as our
wonderful devels, I'll throw my hat into the ring as well. I've been
using Kubuntu for many years, and promote it all the time, especially
at LinuxFest Northwest, and sometimes OSCON.

I'd love to be a non-technical voice on the Council.

I blog as Linuxgrandma, which you can read on both Planet Ubuntu, and
KDEplanet. My ubuntu wiki page:

Thank you for your consideration,

Valorie
