15:30:37 --> abdelrhman has joined #instantbird
15:37:32 <abdelrhman> Do we package IB for any distribution of Linux?
15:39:36 <flo-retina> we don't do it ourselves
15:39:45 <flo-retina> some distributions have/had packages
15:42:12 --> myk has joined #instantbird
15:42:21 <clokep_work> abdelrhman: It'd be nice if it was packaged.
15:43:04 <abdelrhman> why? (I think it would be better for distributions like Ubuntu to have IB for their software center)
15:43:29 * abdelrhman agrees with clokep_work
15:43:57 --> bogdan_maris has joined #instantbird
15:44:06 <clokep_work> abdelrhman: Because we don't have the time nor expertise to do it.
15:44:25 <clokep_work> (As in there isn't really a 'real' answer to "why?"...)
15:44:30 <clokep_work> We used to be packaged on Ubuntu IIRC.
15:45:31 <abdelrhman> Ah
15:50:31 --> pWnnn has joined #instantbird
15:50:55 <freaktechnik> yeah, the "latest" ubuntu package is like 0.8 or something
15:51:07 <freaktechnik> and hasn't been built for any recent ubuntu version
15:51:27 <freaktechnik> but getting into the software center is even harder
15:51:41 <freaktechnik> (than just having a package that's community provided)
15:51:54 <freaktechnik> because it means to be in the default repo for ubunto / whatever distro
15:52:55 <freaktechnik> oh, sorry 0.3, not 0.8
15:53:06 <freaktechnik> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/instantbird/+publishinghistory but apparently you had made it into universe :O

15:57:29 <-- gerard-majax has quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
16:02:41 <flo-retina> abdelrhman: the reasons for not being packaged are often more political than really technical.
16:03:04 <flo-retina> Eg. we aren't on Ubuntu anymore because they dropped all the packages that depended on xulrunner at the time Firefox switched to rapid release.
16:04:50 <flo-retina> They want an Instantbird package to both be based on a debian package (because that's easier), and to package the xul runtime directly (which won't be tolerated for debian, as they have polices against duplication and the xul runtime is already available in another package, ie. xulrunner).
16:05:30 <flo-retina> this is solvable, but requires more "talking to people" work (to find an acceptable compromise) than "here is a patch" work.
16:05:36 <-- myk has quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
16:12:54 <aleth> Things might have changed though as xulrunner may no longer exist
16:13:07 <abdelrhman> Ah, this is a convincing reason, as I see Instantbird has awesome features to be in software centers of Linux distributions
16:13:52 <aleth> Like flo-retina says, it probably just takes someone to take care of it, talk to people, figure out what packaging involves etc..
16:15:38 <flo-retina> hmm
16:15:50 <freaktechnik> all I can say is that debian people still aren't happy about gecko
16:15:58 <flo-retina> aleth: "flo-retina" was highlighted in grey for me in your latest message.
16:16:00 <freaktechnik> because it uses its own sqlite...
16:16:12 <flo-retina> And I have only 14 participants in the Participants list of this room.
16:16:27 <freaktechnik> but getting a third party package, that can be installed but requires the user to add a repo is doable...
16:17:32 <abdelrhman> flo-retina: actually, they are 30 now
16:18:45 <clokep_work> flo-retina: Sounds fun. ;)
16:20:38 <clokep_work> Try putting it on hold and bringig it back?
16:23:08 <flo-retina> clokep_work: back to 30
16:23:42 <clokep_work> UI issue not backend issue then.
16:23:44 * clokep_work pieces out.
16:23:48 <clokep_work> peaces out?
16:23:50 <clokep_work> (o_O)
16:24:35 <flo-retina> too bad I cleared the error console a little while before to test some JS I was writing in it and see the results
16:24:47 <flo-retina> I can't know if there was an error related to the conv UI before...

18:19:43 <clokep_work> aleth: Do we think we should close all open Facebook issues or leave them for 'when we re-support Facebook'?
18:19:53 <clokep_work> I'm tempted to leave them open...unless they're XMPP specific.

21:47:26 <aleth> clokep_work: got some new chat test failure https://treeherder.mozilla.org/logviewer.html#?job_id=31840&repo=comm-central
21:47:55 <clokep_work> aleth: Just remove the tests. ;)
21:48:27 <clokep_work> Hmm....that soudns bad.
21:48:40 <clokep_work> I'm not really sure what could cause that though.
21:48:55 <aleth> well, it's always been broken, but uncaught promise rejections now throw.
21:49:11 <aleth> so you notice ;)
22:01:49 <clokep_work> Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

22:44:18 <instantbot> New Chat Core - General bug 1245991 filed by aleth@instantbird.org.

22:53:30 <clokep_work> aleth: Is there *more* to de-duplicate in those files after those changes or no?
22:54:41 <aleth> In principle one might be able to do more, that code is old and messy
22:55:08 <aleth> But nobody is volunteering to do a rewrite ;)
22:55:14 <clokep_work> OK. Just curious. :)
22:55:23 <clokep_work> I have some code that got *super* gross due that that code.
22:55:32 <aleth> new code?
22:55:37 <clokep_work> https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/page.cgi?id=splinter.html&bug=1016494&attachment=8637215
22:55:54 <clokep_work> Well...maybe I just said "F--- it" and only did the accountWizard branch. :-D
22:56:00 <aleth> yeah, it's ugly.
22:56:22 <aleth> I kept being tempted to ask for a rewrite, but the bug was just about deduplicating without adding new bugs ;)
22:56:47 <aleth> At least now a cleanup would be a bit easier.
22:57:14 <aleth> Should simplify adding the missing pieces to your patch
22:57:35 <clokep_work> Yep! :-D
22:57:42 <clokep_work> I need to give him a high five.
22:58:01 <aleth> so easy to copy and paste... so hard to undo later ;)
22:58:52 <clokep_work> I suspect I r+ed that change...
