thomquite possibly the former12:01
pittiHi thom! Just to let you know, I asked elmo to sync all firefox l10n packages from sid, to have up-to-date 1.0 versions. Warty's version did not have any ubuntu specific changes12:01
mdz...leading me to review the ubuntu diff12:01
thomthere are a bunch of patches that may well need review and updating for 1.012:01
mdzwhich is buried in autogenerated cruft12:01
=== mdz pummels firefox
thomwhich you can safely drop if you just want to drop in the branding changes, and i can review when i get back12:02
thompitti: rock12:02
=== chrisa [~chris@nullcode.org] has joined #ubuntu-devel
thompitti: last i looked there was only one 1.0 pack, so i guess that'sd change? :-)12:02
mdzthom: where did this pango stuff come from?12:03
mdzI'm not even sure what high-level changes are supposed to be in this diff beyond the branding stuff; I'd need to dig up a copy of the pre-0.9.3-reverted changelog12:04
pittithom: I saw several packs12:06
pittithom: however, I still see -ubuntu versions, so something might have went wrong with the sync12:06
pittithom: or debian's version was even older; however, the 0.9.3 version just crashes, so it was not useful anyway12:06
pittithom: but I need these 1.0 versions to do Ubuntu language packs12:06
thommdz: the pango stuff is stolen from redhat; i'm still unsure if we want to keep them12:06
thompitti: yeah, only 1.0 packs are useful, anything older is not useful12:06
mdzthom: sure, but even less certain is how it colud possibly affect the defaults.ini stuff12:07
thomit can't - it's not even enabled unless you pass firefox an env var12:07
mdzright12:07
mdzso I've read through the entire ubuntu diff and I find no possible way it is causing this problem12:08
mdzleaving "mdz's build environment is subtly b0rked" and "sunspots"12:08
mdzmaybe I should just upload the source and see if it happens with the buildd binaries :-P12:08
pittithom: 5 packs are 1.0, 4 are older (still ubuntu versions)12:09
thommdz: hrm12:10
thommdz: are you on amd64 by any chance?12:11
mdzthom: nope12:12
Mithrandirthom: the libc fix worked for you, didn't it?12:17
thomMithrandir: yes12:17
thomMithrandir: but firefox without patches unsets gcc and g++ in some directories12:20
Mithrandirhuh?12:20
thomum, CC and CXX12:21
thomso you get some libraries built with 3.3 on amd6412:21
Mithrandirthat's soooo crackful.12:21
thomwhich causes firefox to segfault12:21
Mithrandirobviously.12:21
thomwas wondering if that was what mdz was seeing12:21
Mithrandirbut why does it touch CC and CXX at all?12:21
thomthey haven't bothered integrating security/ with the autoconf system12:22
Mithrandirthere's really no reason for a Makefile to override CC and CXX12:26

sjoerdthat would be very nice03:59

pittisjoerd: btw, could you already look into adding a hotplug script for lazy unmounting?03:59

pittisjoerd: is it guaranteed that hal will not assign the same desired_mount_point twice?04:17
pittisjoerd: because the policy file does nothing to prevent duplicates04:17
sjoerdpitti: don't think so04:18
sjoerdhow does pmount normally handle it if you give it a label that already exists04:18
pitti$ pmount /dev/sda5 foo04:18
pittiError: directory /media/foo already contains a mounted file system04:18
pittithe only sane thing to do at this level04:19
pittibut the default fallback of "usbdisk" is a very bad design IMHO04:19
pittiit should just be empty if there's no label04:19
pittior at least unique04:19
pittisjoerd: it would be easy just to delete these two lines from storage-policy.fdi04:20

Kamionpitti: that 19_typos patch to cdrecord patches a file which is actually a symlink in the original tarball; it confuses dpkg-source amusingly under some circumstances05:05
pittiKamion: odd; it worked fine for me, but sorry if I messed up anything05:06
KamionI think you have to be patching and unpatching a few times05:06
Kamionno worries, just noticed locally05:07
mdzmorning05:13
seb128hello mdz 05:13
pittiHi mdz!05:14
lupus_how can I see which packages ubuntu-desktop depends on?05:21
Kamionapt-cache show ubuntu-desktop05:21
lupus_thx05:24
mdzmvo_: how I had always envisioned it was to have a list05:30
mdzmvo_: e.g., search first for bzip2, then gzip05:30
elmosomeone promised me apt already did that05:31
elmoit's the only reason Packages.bz2 exists.  and if I can ever remember who that someone is, I'm going to beat them05:31
mvo_heh05:32
mvo_mdz: I can have a look how to implement your idea. the fact I like about the current patch is that it's so short :)05:33
mdzelmo: who did?05:33
mdzah, a mystery05:33
mdzelmo: debootstrap does that05:33
mvo_elmo: the Packages.bz2 is nice to have, it made testing the patch a lot simpler05:34
mdzmvo_: yes, but how many users could truly enable it?05:34
mdzmany users seem to have unofficial sources, and they probably do not have Packages.bz205:34
mvo_agreed. it will only work for "offical" sources for now05:34

shayadaniels: even w/ NetworkManager?06:41
shayaNetworkManager screws it up for me06:41
danielsmmm, sometimes it works06:41
danielswell, NM only works with wireless if you don't want to use anything else to manage it06:42
shayaI think it's becaues madwifi takes forever to return from the "iwlist scanning" operation06:42
danielser, can't reproduce here06:42
shayaiwlist ath0 scanning always works for you?06:42
danielsrunning iwlist ath0 scan, I usually get -EAGAIN once06:42

danielssometimes I get -EAGAIN, but when I run it again, it's fine06:42
shayayea, b/c it takes a while to return06:42
shayait timesout06:42
shayaI think that's the issue w/ NetworkManager06:43
shayabut unsure where it could be timing out06:43

mdzthe decompression probably takes a bit longer, but it does that in parallel with downloading the next thing10:12
dokopitti: I reduced the OOo ubuntu diff from 250k to 10k, so it should be possible for you to start with the 1.1.3 package from experimental10:12
mdzelmo: hmm, that 0.5.30 upload is going to be rejected due to the usual s/unstable/hoary/ fuckup10:13

Kamionat least we shouldn't have particularly broken anything from Debian11:59
Mithrandiris it possible (in some sane way) to do automatic test installations using qemu or something?11:59
