[04:02] <coolstar-pc> Does Qt come with Ubuntu? I'm on Kubuntu myself, but I'm just wondering, as I'm going to start developing an app for Linux, and Ubuntu is the most popular distro...
[14:31] <JanC> coolstar-pc: Qt is installed by default in Ubuntu Desktop since 11.10, for older versions it can be installed easily (and if you have a .deb that depends on it, it will be installed automatically if it wasn't yet)
[17:13] <achuni_> wow
[17:14] <achuni_> notbook overheated, and just powered down :(
[17:14] <achuni_> notebook
=== achuni_ is now known as achuni
[17:15] <achuni> zematynnad: could I ask you for a quick code review for https://code.launchpad.net/~elachuni/software-center-agent/929830-arbify/+merge/92804?
[17:15] <zematynnad> sure thing
[17:17] <achuni> txs
[20:42] <jo-erlend> how come Ubuntu doesn't use gtk 3.2 yet? I thought I'd play with the broadway backend (to render desktop apps using HTML), but it isn't supported.
[20:43] <jo-erlend> I'm talking about Precise now.
[20:45] <davidpitkin> jo-erlend, I would guess there are dependencies broken in a few applications...
[20:46] <davidpitkin> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk+3.0
[20:47] <davidpitkin> If I read that right GTK 3.3 is in Precise
[20:49] <jo-erlend> I looked at it. I didn't really understand it. To me, it looked as if it was version 3.3 of Gtk 3.0 or something. :)
[20:51] <jo-erlend> slightly confusing. But I think gtk has to be compiled to support the broadway backend. Perhaps it just isn't?
[20:56] <davidpitkin> jo-erlend, that could be true, but you are pushing my gtk knowledge...
[20:58] <jo-erlend> davidpitkin, yes, my own as well. But then that's the point. :)
[20:58] <davidpitkin> ah well you could compile your own replacement...
[20:59] <ajmitch> morning
[21:07] <davidpitkin> jo-erlend, this is the file you would want to change to build the package with the broadway backend

[21:07] <davidpitkin> thanks to james_w
[21:07] <jo-erlend> thanks :)
