One thing that is causing concern is that there does not appear to be a browser for ppc builds in 12.10 (they used Ffox in 12.04). 14:11:22 <MohamedAlaa98> I'm still here :) 14:12:04 <balloons> phillw, what do you mean no browser? 14:12:25 <phillw> no Chromium (never was ppc) but no Ffox either this time. 14:12:46 <balloons> aka, there's no ppc build for ffox.. 14:12:46 <phillw> http://launchpad.net/bugs/1008975 14:12:47 <ubottu> Launchpad bug 1008975 in lubuntu-meta (Ubuntu) "Firefox and Chromium missing from powerpc live cd image" [Undecided,Incomplete] 14:12:54 <balloons> did they drop support on ff's end? 14:13:24 <MohamedAlaa98> quit 14:13:49 <phillw> idk, I was made aware of it a couple of days ago. The lubuntu-qa team is in discussion with Julien, but I guess it would affect all of the ppc builds? 14:14:11 <balloons> seems like it does https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=691898 14:14:14 <ubottu> Mozilla bug 691898 in JavaScript Engine "Use YARR interpreter instead of PCRE on platforms where YARR JIT is not supported, since PCRE doesnt build" [Normal,Resolved: fixed] 14:15:10 <balloons> anyways, it looks like they fixed the issue, so it should be possible to build on ppc again with there code changes 14:15:43 <phillw> excellent news, i will communicate it to the testers :) 14:16:39 <balloons> well, julien linked to the ubuntu bug, which is still pending 14:16:43 <phillw> how do we go about getting it into 12.10? 14:16:48 <balloons> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/987421 14:16:50 <ubottu> Launchpad bug 987421 in thunderbird (Ubuntu Quantal) "Firefox/Thunderbird 12 FTBFS on powerpc" [Medium,Triaged] 14:17:17 <phillw> okies, I'll leave it in Juliens' capable hands :) 14:17:21 <balloons> :-) 14:17:34 <balloons> the good news is it CAN be fixed, how's that? 14:17:45 <balloons> anything else to report? 14:18:05 <phillw> nope. I'm done :) 14:18:38 <balloons> thanks phillw 14:18:59 <balloons> and as always, thanks to all the lubuntu QA team -- you guys are doing good work again on alpha one :-) 14:19:50 <balloons> alright, do we have someone from xubuntu? 14:21:02 <balloons> astraljava, you about? 14:21:38 <balloons> how about ubuntu studio? 14:22:30 <balloons> Well I can give the update for both that they are not participating in alpha 1.. 14:22:43 <balloons> anyone around for kubuntu? 14:22:55 <balloons> They too are not issuing iso's for alpha 1 14:23:37 <Riddell> mm? 14:23:41 <Riddell> I'm testing alpha 1 right now 14:23:49 <balloons> err.. sorry Riddell 14:24:04 <balloons> yes, not the full suite of images.. just the desktop for alpha 1 14:24:12 <balloons> correct? 14:24:24 <Riddell> right, which will probably become the full suite of images 14:25:05 <balloons> great, anything else to report -- how's the testing going? 14:25:20 <Riddell> pleasingly well 14:26:26 <balloons> anything else to add? 14:26:43 <Riddell> not just now 14:26:56 <balloons> that's great news..
