Bugszilla whining poll (i.e. the "your bugszilla bug list needs attention" emails)
by Michele Calgaro 26 Mar '14

26 Mar '14

Dear all, I recently had some discussions with Tim and Slavek about the bugszilla whining functionality, i.e. the "your bugszilla bug list needs attention" emails that are sent out automatically every day. We would like to fine tune that, but first we need to know your opinion about it. Here are some possible options to choose from: 1) the whining emails are reeeeeally useful, please spam my mailbox every 5 minutes so I won't forget what bug I am supposed to be working on instead of spending my time deleting emails. 2) the whining emails are useful and the current setting is ok. 3) the whining emails are useful but the frequency of the remainder is too high (currently daily). It would be better if the emails were sent weekly/bi-weekly/monthly/every 3 months/every 6 months/once a year/once every 5 years.... 4) the whining emails are useless to me but they don't affect me. 5) the whining emails are useless to me and would prefer not to receive them if possible. 6) please stop sending me those useless stuff. Pleeeeeeeease!! Really, please! Looking forward to your opinions, so that we can fine tune the settings in the best way. Cheers Michele

Alternative APT source 'R14 preliminary stable-builds'
by Slávek Banko 26 Mar '14

26 Mar '14

Hi all, in light of the recent problems on the build-farm, I used the fact that ever since work on v3.5.13-sru I have the automated preparation of source packages and at the same time I have a private builder where I am doing the test building, and where I have available all supported Debian and Ubuntu distributions (for example, see my test for building on Ubuntu Trusty). I optimize my production line for building packages, so now I have ready alternative APT source containing packages for all supported Debian and Ubuntu distributions. The same packages will be in the future uploaded to my PPA on build-farm, where they will serve as maintanance releases for R14. Similarly, as was my PPA for v3.5.13-sru branch. Therefore, this apt source I call 'R14 preliminary stable-builds'. In order that the packages were readily available, they are synced to my primary mirror. What to do if you want to use it? 1) Add the source to sources.list: deb http://mirror.xcer.cz/trinity-sb *distribution-name* deps-r14 main-r14 2) From some public GPG keyserver download my key and import it into APT: sudo apt-key adv --keyserver pks.gpg.cz --recv-keys ED1F4884 3) Update the packages in such a way as you used to do it :) I hope it will be helpful. -- Slavek

[KDE * Restrictions]
by Darrell 25 Mar '14

25 Mar '14

Is there a way to query the full source tree to assemble a list of all possible "kiosk" related restrictions? Or which apps support restrictions? There are two README files in the source tree, but the files seem incomplete: tdelibs/tdecore/README/kiosk tdebase/konsole/README.konsole_kiosk Neither README is installed in the final tdelibs or tdebase packages. The README files indicate there are three major groupings (kdeglobal): [KDE Action Restrictions] [KDE Resource Restrictions] [KDE URL Restrictions] The kiosktool app does not seem to provide a method to assemble a full list of restrictions. I am editing the Admin Guide. An appendix of all possible restrictions would be helpful. Darrell

RE: Indefinite QuickBuild outage
by Michele Calgaro 21 Mar '14

Tim, what is the status of that broken chiller? If the donation have not been enough to cover for its replacement, do you think it would be possible to get it repaired instead? Personally I don't need that chiller since I build on my own computer, but sure there are a lot of users/testers out there that have been relying on the nightly builds so far and would or could be affected by the lack of them if they don't use Wheezy or Trusty. Just wondering. Cheers Michele

Design of the new splash screen
by Slávek Banko 19 Mar '14

19 Mar '14

Hi E. Liddell, please can you as an expert on graphic look at the new splash screen? It does not feel good that in the lower right corner is twice logos TDE. What do you think? Any idea what to do with it? http://bugs.trinitydesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=2012 Thanks -- Slavek

New KSplash default screen
by Michele Calgaro 18 Mar '14

18 Mar '14

Dear all, with the (sooner or later) upcoming v14.0.0 release, the standard KSplash default screen has been updated to a more modern look, thanks to Alex Couture's work. The original splash screen is still available under the name "TDE-Classic". Cheers Michele

With this we should be a little closer to replacing that cooler. Come on everybody, every little helps. It may be a small or big effort for each of us, depending on the individual situation, but all together we can do that. I am sure Tim would not have asked if there was another way to do it. Please donate and help keeping TDE alive :-) Cheers Michele

TDE v14.0.0 official bug list
by Michele Calgaro 13 Mar '14

13 Mar '14

Dear all, the TDE development team has finally prepared a list of bugs that will be addressed for the release of v14.0.0. The list is available on the etherpad (http://trinity.etherpad.trinitydesktop.org/39) and on bugszilla as meta bug 2014 (http://bugs.pearsoncomputing.net/show_bug.cgi?id=2014). If there is a specific bug that you think should be fixed in v14.0.0 and that we have not included, feel free to propose it in the mailing list for consideration. Please keep in mind that such bugs should be blockers/critical or cause major loss of functionality to users. We are looking at freezing the list in one week time (after 2014/03/19 US time). The current list of bugs is quite long as you can see, so v14.0.0 will probably not be release before 2-3 additional months of development, based on the resources currently available. Nevertheless we have a soft-freeze in place and so development should be focused mainly on the official bug list. Cheers Michele
