| _rene_ | pitti: besides the fact that 1.1.3-2 is b0rked, 1.1.2dfsg1-3 and 1.1.3-2 have the l10n-* changes | 12:14 |
| elmo | pitti: yeah | 12:14 |
| pitti | _rene_: heh, nice | 12:14 |
| pitti | elmo: klogd 5192 0.1 0.2 2560 1472 ? Ss 00:12 0:00 /sbin/klogd -P /var/run/klogd/kmsg | 12:14 |

| elmo | I thought you couldn't do that ? | 12:15 |
| pitti | elmo: it's night, remember? | 12:15 |
| pitti | the DEROOTIFICATOR strikes back | 12:15 |
| pitti | elmo: no, of course I had to cheat | 12:15 |
| pitti | elmo: klogd is now run as unprivileged user right from the start | 12:16 |
| jdub | azeem: your new multisync has Depends: evolution (<< 1.5) on the evo plugin | 12:16 |
| pitti | elmo: I added an option to read an alternative /proc/kmsg location (a pipe /var/run/klogd/kmsg) | 12:16 |
| jdub | pitti: man, you are rocking on the derootification | 12:16 |
| pitti | elmo: and have a root process (a mere 'dd') which pipes /proc/kmsg to /var/run/klogd/kmsg | 12:16 |
| pitti | elmo: I know it's an evil hack, but it works great | 12:17 |
| pitti | elmo: and so we separated the root task from all the parsing stuff which is now done purely as user | 12:17 |
| pitti | jdub: thanks :-) | 12:17 |
| elmo | pitti: rock on | 12:17 |
| pitti | well, bedtime now | 12:18 |
| pitti | I do some further cleanups and tests and upload tomorr | 12:18 |
| pitti | ow | 12:18 |
| fabbione | YEAH | 12:19 |
| fabbione | applying patch sparc64-syslog-register to ./ ... ok. | 12:19 |
| fabbione | the kernel starts to take shape | 12:20 |
| fabbione | MUHA MUHA MUHA | 12:20 |
| pitti | fabbione: how far is the porting effort? | 12:20 |
| fabbione | pitti: i am building the "golden debs" | 12:20 |

| pitti | fabbione: "golden"? | 12:20 |
| pitti | ah | 12:20 |
| === pitti has never seen a Color: attribute in debian/control | ||
| fabbione | and i am hacking around the kernel now | 12:21 |
| pitti | fabbione: wait, tomorrow the kernel will run as normal user :-) | 12:21 |
| pitti | fabbione: btw, the platform supported by Debian is "only" sparc32? | 12:22 |
| pitti | fabbione: I had woody on a sparc64 once; you are now building the whole userland for 64 bit? | 12:22 |
| fabbione | pitti: ETOOMANYQUESTIONS | 12:23 |
| fabbione | pitti: oh yeah.. kernel as user ehhehe | 12:23 |
| fabbione | pitti: it depends from the kernel. | 12:23 |
| fabbione | but the userland is always 99.9% 32bit | 12:24 |
| fabbione | it's just faster | 12:24 |
| sjoerd | fabbione: btw. alsa is now working on my U5, you might want too look at the patches for that (as your doing kernel stuff) | 12:24 |
| fabbione | sjoerd: sure.. right now i need to get the packages to compile | 12:25 |
| sjoerd | :) | 12:25 |
| fabbione | and give some love to the config | 12:25 |
| fabbione | sjoerd: do you have idea why sparc have nsdiwrapper support? | 12:28 |
| fabbione | isn't that a i386/m$ thingy? | 12:28 |
| pitti | Solaris drivers for Linux/sparc? | 12:28 |
| sjoerd | fabbione: huh ? | 12:29 |
| Md | NDIS is a windows technology, I can't see how solaris enters the picture | 12:29 |
| pitti | Md: just guesssing :-) | 12:29 |
| === fabbione wonders why i was prompted for it | ||
| elmo | because our kernel patch isn't very ipcky | 12:29 |
| fabbione | elmo: ok thanks | 12:30 |
| Md | does ubuntu have some modem autodetection script? I'm pondering about what to do with /dev/modem | 12:30 |
| fabbione | Md: nope... | 12:30 |
| Md | I suppose it's possible to send ATIwhatever to all serial ports and check if something comes back, but doing this at every boot could take too much time. and I do not even want to think about what happens if something which is not a modem is connected to the port... | 12:33 |
| elmo | anyone here use apt-move ? | 12:34 |

| jdub | doko: i don't think i get to see running logs | 08:02 |
| fabbione | hey jdub | 08:03 |
| jdub | yo fab :) | 08:03 |
| fabbione | jdub: i think soon you will be able to run hoary on sparc | 08:03 |
| jdub | rad :) | 08:08 |
| jdub | how's kernel stuff? | 08:08 |
| fabbione | building now | 08:08 |
| fabbione | it still needs love, i am only checking the patches right now | 08:09 |
| fabbione | there is a few things that needs to be added properly | 08:09 |
| fabbione | the major blocker atm is silo | 08:09 |
| fabbione | because it build-dep on gcc-2.95 | 08:10 |
| fabbione | it compiles fine with other gcc's | 08:10 |
| fabbione | but apparently it doesn't always work | 08:10 |
| fabbione | so someone will have to test it for me | 08:10 |
| fabbione | (because i only have ONE sparc that it is actually building) | 08:10 |
| fabbione | jdub: do you feel brave enough to give it a shot? | 08:11 |
| jdub | yeah, maybe on my U5 | 08:11 |
| fabbione | jdub: cool | 08:11 |
| jdub | then on the 220R :) | 08:12 |
| fabbione | jdub: just grab silo from there | 08:12 |
| fabbione | don't use the other debs, because they are not all of them yet | 08:12 |
| jdub | i should try silo with a sarge install? | 08:12 |
| jdub | or...? | 08:13 |
| fabbione | jdub: it doesn't matter on which distro | 08:13 |
| fabbione | it's just recompiled with gcc-3.3 instead of 2.95 | 08:13 |
| jdub | oh right | 08:13 |
| fabbione | there are no package or code changes | 08:13 |
| jdub | oh, sorry, missed your "only one sparc" bit :) | 08:14 |
| fabbione | ehehe | 08:14 |
| jdub | i'm tempted to put my sata disks in the sparc now... | 08:14 |
| jdub | no idea if it'll boot off them though. i suppose it wouldn't. | 08:15 |
| fabbione | nope | 08:15 |

| mvo_ | night mdz | 10:31 |
| pitti | daniels: I already tried the new driver | 10:31 |
| pitti | daniels: still with the PLL option | 10:31 |
| daniels | pitti: still works? | 10:31 |
| pitti | daniels: it behaves exactly like the very old one | 10:32 |
| daniels | pitti: because I threw away the usefwpll patch | 10:32 |
| daniels | pitti: rockin! | 10:32 |
| pitti | daniels: external works, internal one flickers | 10:32 |
| pitti | daniels: so, "no" | 10:32 |
| daniels | pitti: oh, right | 10:32 |
| daniels | hold on, there's an option for that | 10:32 |
| pitti | daniels: the last one you sent me worked fine | 10:32 |
| pitti | daniels: "very old one" == the version shipped in 6.8.1-0.2 | 10:32 |
| daniels | pitti: does 'Option "LVDSProbePLL"' help? | 10:33 |
| daniels | pitti: if not, does 'Option "NoLVDSProbePLL"' help? | 10:33 |
| pitti | daniels: first I try to remove UseFWPLL | 10:33 |
| pitti | daniels: then the other two | 10:33 |
| pitti | daniels: brb, I have to disconnect my monitor | 10:33 |
| daniels | pitti: usefwpll should have no effect with the new radeon_drv (the one I put up last night) | 10:33 |
| daniels | k | 10:34 |
| pitti | daniels: oh, then the option should not make any difference? | 10:34 |
| daniels | right | 10:35 |
| pitti | indeed, no difference, still flicker. Let's try the other one | 10:35 |
| azeem | jdub: euh | 10:36 |
| pitti | daniels: no, neither option makes it work | 10:37 |
| daniels | pitti: and it worked with my patch and UseFWPLL? | 10:37 |
| pitti | daniels: yes | 10:37 |
| daniels | heh | 10:37 |
| pitti | daniels: it worked with the 2.3 MB driver you sent me | 10:38 |
| pitti | daniels: md5sum 2b44a78a... | 10:38 |
| pitti | daniels: 2327838 bytes | 10:38 |
| pitti | daniels: ^^ this certainly included debugging symbols? | 10:38 |
| daniels | could you please email benh@kernel.crashing.org, CCing daniel.stone@canonical.com, send him your logs from both with LVDSProbePLL and with NoLVDSProbePLL, tell him it worked with my patch that pulls the PLL values from the registers, and just quickly describe your problem? | 10:38 |
| daniels | pitti: yeah, it's only ~100kB stripped | 10:39 |
| pitti | daniels: 230 kB for me | 10:39 |
| pitti | daniels: anyway, do you want any logs? | 10:39 |
| pitti | daniels: shall I set any value for above option? | 10:39 |
| pitti | "true" or so? | 10:39 |
| bob2 | hrm, my laptop doesn't wake up from sleep | 10:39 |
| bob2 | shockingly | 10:39 |
| daniels | pitti: if you could just throw them all (with LVDSProbePLL and with NoLVDSProbePLL) in the email to myself and benh, that'd be great, thanks | 10:39 |
| daniels | pitti: nope, just Option "LVDSProbePLL" or Option "NoLVDSProbePLL" | 10:40 |
| pitti | daniels: benh.get_email() == ? | 10:40 |
| bob2 | tommorow I'd guess | 10:40 |
| daniels | pitti: benh@kernel.crashing.org | 10:40 |
| daniels | pitti: see the line just above 'yeah, it's only ~100kB stripped' | 10:40 |
| pitti | oh, missed that one | 10:41 |
| pitti | I'll do | 10:41 |
| pitti | daniels: how I shall refer to this driver I just downloaded? | 10:41 |
| pitti | daniels: is it from any official version? | 10:42 |
| fabbione | this is SOOOO evil! | 10:44 |

| lucas_ | hi | 12:48 |
| lucas_ | Kamion: you there ? I'm now successfully generating iso images. I'd like to be able to replace some packages with my own now | 12:48 |
| fabbione | Mithrandir: how is going the build? | 12:48 |
| lucas_ | I'd like to use the LOCALDEBS way | 12:48 |
| Mithrandir | fabbione: it built. | 12:49 |
| fabbione | Mithrandir: cool.. what about the udebs? | 12:49 |
| lucas_ | but I don't understand which directory structure debian-cd expects in the local repository | 12:49 |
| Mithrandir | fabbione: there are udebs with non-zero size. :) | 12:49 |
| fabbione | Mithrandir: that sounds cool | 12:50 |
| fabbione | it build.. it works :-) | 12:50 |
| fabbione | i just need to wait for Kamion to confirm ppc | 12:50 |
| fabbione | even if the version you built has 2 bugs | 12:50 |
| fabbione | i fixed them locally | 12:50 |
| Mithrandir | ok | 12:50 |
| fabbione | it doesn't generate kernel*.udeb | 12:51 |
| fabbione | and as a consequence it miscalculate the dependencies | 12:51 |
| Mithrandir | oh, ok. | 12:51 |
| fabbione | but they look good here | 12:51 |
| Mithrandir | we want kernel*udeb? | 12:52 |
| fabbione | debdiff is happy | 12:52 |
| fabbione | Mithrandir: it's a missing $(touch modules/${arch}/kernel-image | 12:52 |
| fabbione | ) | 12:52 |
| Mithrandir | heh | 12:52 |
| fabbione | but the missing file is related to something else | 12:53 |
| fabbione | it must be one of the clean target that wipes it away | 12:53 |
| fabbione | because it always disappear | 12:53 |

| fabbione | (see above) | 12:56 |
| Kamion | _rene_: dunno - you'd have to ask elmo/lamont whether lsb-release is installed on the buildds | 12:56 |

| jdub | lupus_: i think that's a good option for advanced users to enable | 01:21 |
| lupus_ | why advanced users? | 01:22 |
| lupus_ | if you give the new tab autofocus | 01:22 |
| jdub | because they'll know their page opened in the other window in a tab, instead of popping up straight in front of them (as reasonably expected) | 01:22 |
| elmo | fabbione: done | 01:23 |
| fabbione | elmo: thanks! | 01:23 |
| lupus_ | if firefox is already open the current website is just changed, firefox doesn't get caption | 01:24 |
| lupus_ | and as I user I would wonder why my other page went | 01:24 |
| jdub | not with the current default settings | 01:25 |
| jdub | a new window is opened | 01:25 |
| jdub | (unless we've had a reversion of those settings in hoary) | 01:25 |
| jdub | (which is not unlikely) | 01:25 |
| lupus_ | ic sorry I have maybe some old settings lying around :p | 01:25 |
| fabbione | Kamion: how much did you diverge linux-kernel-di from debian kernel-di ? | 01:33 |
| Mithrandir | fabbione: how far from being debootstrappable is sparc? | 01:34 |
| fabbione | Mithrandir: it will take a while still | 01:35 |
| fabbione | Mithrandir: because i am building ubuntu on top of ubuntu | 01:36 |
| fabbione | Mithrandir: but sparc64 kernels are ready | 01:36 |
| fabbione | Mithrandir: i am going to drop sparc32 on the floor for now | 01:36 |
| fabbione | if someone wants it, he will provide patches | 01:36 |
| fabbione | theoretically i could upload the kernel in hoary | 01:37 |
| fabbione | but since i have like 3 branches at the moment | 01:37 |
| fabbione | i would prefer to go for one at a time | 01:37 |
| fabbione | first udeb integration | 01:37 |
| fabbione | 2.6.9 | 01:37 |
| fabbione | sparc integration | 01:37 |
| fabbione | Mithrandir: i would say that i should be able to give you all the debs in a week or so | 01:38 |
| fabbione | it's only question of time basically | 01:38 |
| Mithrandir | fabbione: goodie. | 01:40 |
| fabbione | + i am catching a bunch of FTBFS due to the xlibs split that we didn't notice in the first run | 01:41 |
| fabbione | so that's even better | 01:42 |
| Kamion | fabbione: debdiff, man :) | 01:42 |
| fabbione | daniels: 4132 | 01:42 |
| Kamion | fabbione: a bit | 01:42 |
| fabbione | Kamion: ? | 01:42 |
| Kamion | fabbione: firmware, extra modules, etc. | 01:42 |
| Kamion | fabbione: Debian uses linux-kernel-di-*, not kernel-di-*; using debdiff to see the differences is trivial | 01:42 |
| fabbione | AHHH | 01:42 |
| fabbione | ok | 01:43 |
| fabbione | sure | 01:43 |
| daniels | fabbione: eh? | 01:43 |
| fabbione | daniels: #4132 <- | 01:44 |
| daniels | yeah | 01:44 |
| daniels | any specific reaosn why I won it? or do you need it urgently or something? | 01:44 |
| fabbione | daniels: because it's a FTBFS? | 01:44 |
| elmo | whee, expect is FUBAR in hoary | 01:46 |
| Kamion | pitti: isn't the LSB init stuff in lsb-base, not lsb-release? | 01:57 |
| Kamion | pitti: (re your anacron changelog) | 01:57 |
| lucas_ | Kamion: tools/scanpackages generates errors when running apt-ftparchive : | 01:59 |

| lucas_ | E: Could not open file /space/ubuntu-custom/scratch/tmp/warty-i386/CD1/dists/warty/local/binary-i386/Packages.new - open (2 No such file or directory) | 01:59 |
| lucas_ | E: Error Processing directory dists/warty/local/binary-i386/ | 01:59 |
| pitti | Kamion: I copied that from another package | 01:59 |
| pitti | Kamion: so there is at least one other faulty package | 01:59 |
| Kamion | lucas_: might need to create those directories by hand | 01:59 |
| pitti | Kamion: I'll fix it | 01:59 |
| Kamion | pitti: ta | 01:59 |
| Kamion | lucas_: er, not the directories under CD1, though | 02:00 |
| lucas_ | mmh | 02:00 |
| Kamion | lucas_: actually FWIW I get the same error in the official builds, it's harmless as far as I know | 02:00 |
| lucas_ | ok | 02:01 |
| lucas_ | :-) | 02:01 |
| Kamion | I should probably investigate it at some point | 02:01 |
| lucas_ | the script responsible for copying the Packages to CD1/ should create the dir | 02:01 |
| lucas_ | or they should be created before | 02:01 |
| Kamion | well, not sure; local is weird in a few places | 02:02 |
| Kamion | do you actually have anything in your local tree yet? the official builds (obviously) don't | 02:02 |
| lucas_ | I do | 02:03 |
| lucas_ | I rebuilt base-config | 02:03 |
| Kamion | hm, ok, it used to work fine for us though | 02:03 |
| === winkle [~winkle@lgh3814234.vittran.norrnod.se] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| lucas_ | but debian-cd doesn't pick my local version | 02:03 |
| Kamion | did you increase the version of base-config? | 02:03 |
| lucas_ | yup | 02:03 |
| jdub | fabbione: do you recommend doing "libx11-dev | xlibs-dev, libice-dev | xlibs-dev" and so on, or just depending on xlibs-dev? | 02:04 |
| fabbione | jdub: nothing should Build-Dep on xlibs-dev | 02:04 |
| daniels | jdub: the former | 02:04 |
| fabbione | you need to just use the real Build-Dep | 02:04 |
| daniels | fabbione: makes backports hard oh shit 0% battery | 02:05 |
| fabbione | libx11-dev, libice-dev, libdanielscrack-dev | 02:05 |
| Kamion | lucas_: try 'tools/apt-selection cache show base-config' | 02:05 |
| === jdub is doing a debian-compatible deb :) | ||
| fabbione | jdub: still... | 02:05 |
| lucas_ | correct version | 02:05 |
| lucas_ | but I think I understand | 02:05 |
| Kamion | lucas_: your modified version? | 02:05 |
| lucas_ | I mkdir -p /space/ubuntu-custom/scratch/tmp/warty-i386/CD1/dists/warty/local/binary-i386/ | 02:06 |
| lucas_ | then apt-ftparchive is able to generate the Packages on CD1 | 02:06 |
| daniels | jdub: you only want xlibs-dev if you want to be compatible with pre-4.3 | 02:06 |
| lucas_ | so I just need to add the creation of this dir swhere in scanpackages | 02:06 |
| Kamion | lucas_: the issue is that nothing post-install expects local to be there | 02:06 |
| jdub | daniels: oh | 02:06 |
| jdub | bugger that, then | 02:06 |
| daniels | yes! | 02:06 |
| lucas_ | Kamion: it doesn't really matter for me | 02:07 |
| Kamion | lucas_: so you can generate a CD that way, but base-config probably won't get installed | 02:07 |
| === fabbione would really like to see xlibs-dev vanishing | ||
| Kamion | lucas_: yes, it does :-) | 02:07 |
| lucas_ | oh | 02:07 |
| === Matt| [~Matt|@81-179-205-129.dsl.pipex.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| daniels | fabbione: and -static-dev, and -static-pic | 02:07 |
| lucas_ | so the best solution would be not to use local at all | 02:07 |
| fabbione | daniels: these are a bit more hard to kill.. but yes | 02:08 |
| Kamion | lucas_: you might find that easier | 02:08 |
| Kamion | I guess I should try using local for something again to make sure it still works the way I remember | 02:08 |
| lucas_ | when apt-ftparchive finds 2 packages with the same name but different versions | 02:09 |
| lucas_ | I expect it only writes the newer one in Packages ? | 02:09 |
| Kamion | lucas_: but really the only reason we have LOCAL turned on at all is that in the early days of Ubuntu development the archive wasn't quite usable for building installable CDs, but I had a few local hacks that made it more or less work so I used those temporarily | 02:09 |
| Kamion | lucas_: right, should do | 02:09 |
| === lucas_ thinking... | ||
| lucas_ | ok, it should do the trick | 02:10 |
| Kamion | I've just turned LOCAL off for our builds | 02:10 |
| Kamion | let's see if it keeps working | 02:10 |
| lucas_ | it probably will | 02:10 |
| lucas_ | it WFM before I enabled LOCAL | 02:10 |
| Kamion | fabbione: probably has to wait for a full Debian release cycle though; that's a *lot* of source packages to change | 02:11 |
| Kamion | fabbione: xlibs-dev is really handy too | 02:11 |
| Kamion | for users | 02:11 |
| daniels | Kamion: i dislike the entire idea of xlibs* | 02:12 |
| pitti | Kamion: stupid me... | 02:12 |
| daniels | Kamion: (not a rhetorical question, largely because I don't know the answer) do we have a gnome-dev? | 02:12 |
| pitti | Kamion: anacron does depend on lsb-base, I just made the error in the changelog | 02:12 |
| fabbione | Kamion: yes i know.. :( but i plan to kill it in etch if Branden will allow me | 02:13 |
| bob2 | daniels: gnome-devel | 02:13 |
| fabbione | Kamion: more than users.. we are talking about lazy maintainers | 02:14 |
| fabbione | ;) | 02:14 |
| daniels | hm | 02:14 |
| Kamion | daniels: gnome-devel and gnome-core-devel, yeah | 02:14 |
| daniels | well, yeah | 02:14 |
| daniels | maybe we should keep xlibs-dev and make it illegal to b-d on them (make dpkg-source break) | 02:14 |
| Kamion | fabbione: users are more important in the long run though | 02:14 |
| daniels | either that or just rename it to x-libraries-devel | 02:15 |
| daniels | -> users keep the metapackage to install, b-ds on xlibs-dev break and I get to go fix them all | 02:15 |
| Kamion | I dislike the idea of creating a billion serious bugs just because you don't like a particular package | 02:15 |
| Kamion | that's SO not fun | 02:15 |
| fabbione | Kamion: it's not like it will happen in sarge | 02:15 |
| Kamion | fabbione: so? | 02:15 |
| fabbione | there is an entire release cycle to fix that | 02:16 |
| Kamion | fabbione: I don't want everything to go to shit after sarge either | 02:16 |
| Kamion | modifying that many packages is HARD | 02:16 |
| Kamion | we did it for /usr/share/doc, and it truly sucked | 02:16 |
| Kamion | it took two release cycles to get all the packages changed | 02:16 |
| fabbione | Kamion: yes i understand that... | 02:16 |
| Kamion | and it sucked up huge amounts of developer effort that was just a total waste of time | 02:16 |
| Kamion | you're basically proposing deliberately wasting developer time | 02:17 |
| jdub | fabbione: yeah man, stop punching me in the face! | 02:17 |
| fabbione | not really.. i am proposing to kill a meta package that is there because maintainers are lazy to figure out their build-dep | 02:17 |
| fabbione | i know it's not "nice" | 02:17 |
| fabbione | but imho it's cleaner to know on what you really depend on | 02:18 |
| fabbione | instead of just pulling a gazillion of libs for nothing | 02:18 |
| Kamion | $ grep-dctrl -nsPackage -FBuild-Depends,Build-Depends-Indep xlibs-dev /var/lib/apt/lists/riva_debian_dists_unstable_main_source_Sources | wc -l | 02:18 |
| Kamion | 795 | 02:18 |
| Kamion | I'm sorry but I don't think that's acceptable | 02:18 |
| Kamion | you must have a transition plan | 02:19 |
| smurfix | fabbione: the shlibdeps already tell that. Maybe we can use them to automate the transition. | 02:19 |
| Kamion | and removing xlibs-dev and fixing everything up afterwards isn't one | 02:19 |
| daniels | Kamion: fixing everything up before? | 02:19 |
| fabbione | Kamion: xlibs-dev is already a transition to avoid breakage from X < 4.3 | 02:19 |
| Kamion | daniels: that would be less bad | 02:19 |
| fabbione | so i think it will be time with X > 6.8 to shake the dust away | 02:20 |
| elmo | I have to agree with kamion here - you're imposing a massive transition for aesthetics, not technical reasons and then trying to justify by blaming maintainers for being lazy | 02:20 |
| Kamion | fabbione: it's obviously not a completed transition, because it's still being used | 02:20 |
| Kamion | fabbione: realise that maintainers aren't AWARE that you think xlibs-dev is a lazy thing to use | 02:20 |
| daniels | i think 'lazy' isn't the right justification | 02:20 |
| daniels | having properly articulated b-ds is a win | 02:21 |
| elmo | daniels: how? | 02:21 |
| fabbione | Description: X Window System client library development files transitional package | 02:21 |
| Kamion | although it is oldlibs - but I don't think it's been particularly widely announced, e.g. wishlist bugs on everything that b-ds on it | 02:21 |
| fabbione | This transitional package is | 02:21 |
| fabbione | only depended upon by packages that haven't yet corrected their dependencies to | 02:21 |
| fabbione | reflect the new library arrangement. | 02:21 |
| elmo | and how does this win counter-balance the massive transition effort involved? | 02:21 |
| Kamion | fabbione: how about you go file the wishlists to move away from it now? | 02:21 |
| elmo | fabbione: dude, I have packages that depend on X and have done for years - what makes you think I would have read that description since it changed? | 02:21 |
| daniels | elmo: eh, I'd rather like people to know what they actually use | 02:21 |
| elmo | daniels: how is that a technical win, dude | 02:22 |
| fabbione | Kamion: it will make more sense immediatly after sarge and do it properly, once, with Xorg split | 02:22 |
| Kamion | browser-history, certainly, I haven't uploaded that for ages | 02:22 |
| elmo | don't hand wave. give me cold, hard, technical benefits that don't involve aesthetics | 02:22 |
| daniels | rather than just a rough sledgehammer 'oh right, so I'll install everything from the base authentication through to four toolkits' | 02:22 |
| jdub | elmo: with the Big X Split coming up, it will matter more | 02:22 |
| daniels | elmo: not dragging in 200MB of crap you don't need | 02:22 |
| daniels | and yes | 02:22 |
| elmo | jdub: why? | 02:22 |
| jdub | elmo: (i'm not taking sides here, but that is a valid point) | 02:23 |
| elmo | AFAIK xlibs-dev could still exist in a X split world, AFAICS | 02:23 |
| daniels | yes, it could | 02:23 |
| jdub | elmo: because those libs will be released separately | 02:23 |
| Kamion | fabbione: and for all of this we have to figure out how to get the changes into testing, which takes a lot of time in the real world | 02:23 |
| daniels | but it's just a craptastic idea imo | 02:23 |
| fabbione | elmo: don't get me wrong.. i understand why xlibs-dev exists... | 02:23 |
| daniels | elmo: your packages don't depend on X, BTW | 02:23 |
| elmo | daniels: bzzt | 02:23 |
| daniels | elmo: they likely depend on the general client-side X library, which is up for replacement | 02:24 |
| Kamion | there's also random bits of documentation out there that say "to get X libraries on Debian, install xlibs-dev"; that documentation doesn't just go away | 02:24 |
| elmo | I maintain a KDE-based package - I think that's likely to depend on X | 02:24 |
| jdub | if you have to depend on a specific version, you'd have to switch or add a specific depends anyway | 02:24 |
| daniels | elmo: 'depend on X' is handwavey random crap | 02:24 |
| jdub | daniels: i don't get why gtk-dev doesn't have the right x dev depends | 02:24 |
| daniels | jdub: it doesn't? | 02:24 |
| jdub | no | 02:24 |
| jdub | that just bit me with GUS | 02:24 |
| fabbione | Kamion: X usually moves in one shot in testing.. | 02:24 |
| elmo | daniels: you know what I mean | 02:24 |
| daniels | jdub: then it needs updating | 02:25 |
| Kamion | fabbione: I'm not talking about X | 02:25 |
| elmo | so basically, the only technical reason you guys have is "so we install less as build-depends" .. mmk | 02:25 |
| daniels | elmo: yes, I assume you depend on the general X11 client-side library, which is up for replacement (thus chaining through to the X authorisation library), and you probably depend on the library that provides a few extensions | 02:25 |
| Kamion | fabbione: I'm talking about nearly 800 other source packages, many of which will have fun interdependencies | 02:25 |
| fabbione | Kamion: but i see the complexity.. i am just saying that xlibs-dev was is already a transitional package and that can be killed doing thing properly | 02:25 |
| daniels | elmo: possibly the I Can't Believe It's Not IPC library | 02:25 |
| fabbione | Kamion: yes.. i grok that | 02:25 |
| jdub | elmo: when the big X split happens, the difference between the libs will matter | 02:26 |
| daniels | elmo: but probably not all of four toolkits | 02:26 |
| daniels | elmo: and whatever random crap was in 'xlibs' | 02:26 |
| Kamion | fabbione: if the transition had been done properly I wouldn't be seeing nearly 800 build-deps in unstable right now | 02:26 |
| jdub | elmo: you will be depending on different versions | 02:26 |
| Kamion | (and that's only main) | 02:26 |
| Kamion | jdub: surely if the versions are being allowed to get wildly out of sync you lose anyway | 02:26 |
| jdub | elmo: up til now, it's always been one great big galumphing monolithic release | 02:26 |
| jdub | Kamion: with x, no, because it's been api/abi stable for years anyway | 02:26 |
| Kamion | jdub: if xlibs-dev depends on say x-dev and libx11-dev, how does it make any difference if you write out the build-dependencies separately? | 02:27 |
| Kamion | jdub: metapackages and writing out build-deps separately are semantically identical | 02:27 |
| jdub | Kamion: because you may need libx11-dev 56 and libice-dev 23 | 02:27 |

| Kamion | jdub: uh-huh, so if you do you can say so | 02:27 |
| fabbione | Kamion: i don't have enough historical backgroud to tell what was done to inform developers that xlibs-dev is a transitional package, so i cannot comment on it. On the otherside this doesn't not mean that things can be still done | 02:27 |

| Kamion | fabbione: right, but it means that dropping xlibs-dev for etch is a highly ambitious goal | 02:28 |
| jdub | Kamion: so you end up switching anyway :) | 02:28 |
| daniels | elmo: if you're unable to further articulate your build-deps, then I'm sorry, but that's just crap | 02:28 |
| elmo | daniels: dude, grow the fuck up | 02:28 |
| Kamion | jdub: sure, in the unlikely event that say browser-history needs to | 02:28 |
| elmo | I'm not unable to articulate anything | 02:28 |
| daniels | elmo: i understand that this is a change | 02:28 |
| daniels | elmo: and that previously there was just xlibs | 02:28 |
| jdub | daniels: the "you are lazy" reasoning doesn't help your case | 02:28 |
| daniels | elmo: but what I'm trying to say here is that was *wrong* | 02:28 |
| fabbione | Kamion: i never said it was going to be easy, did I? ;) | 02:28 |
| daniels | agh | 02:28 |
| daniels | elmo: not meant to imply that this is your fault or that you're lazy or whatever | 02:28 |
| daniels | a non-specific, hand-wavey 'you' | 02:29 |
| daniels | Kamion: (x-dev is an aberration anyway) | 02:29 |
| elmo | daniels: sorry, but it doesn't matter whether you're accusing me or the n hundred maintains of being "lazy or whatever", all it's doing is convincing me you have only religious reasons for this | 02:29 |
| Kamion | daniels: so ... what am I supposed to do to get X11/Xos.h and X11/Xatom.h? | 02:29 |
| daniels | Kamion: the selection of files for x-dev is ... odd | 02:30 |
| Kamion | daniels: this isn't particularly helping your case either you know :) | 02:30 |
| daniels | Kamion: sort of randomly picked from whichever files didn't neatly fit into whichever categories were picked as a first glance | 02:30 |
| daniels | Kamion: i know | 02:30 |
| daniels | i'm just saying, that if I were designing it from the ground up right now, I know how I'd package it (largely because I already have packaged it, from the ground up) | 02:31 |
| Kamion | if maintainers get the impression that X is going to randomly move files around between development packages, they're fully entitled to say "screw it, I'll just b-d on the metapackage and that'll work no matter what they rearrange" | 02:31 |
| daniels | and that is not bundling 64 libraries with a 701MB build-tree into a single package | 02:31 |
| daniels | and that the result is rather a horror and I'd like it to go away | 02:31 |
| === RubenV [~lambda1@83-134-126-133.Leuven.GoPlus.FastDSL.tiscali.be] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| daniels | Kamion: understood. that's why I would rather like to reorganise it sooner rather than later, and then come out with a transition document (or, hell, even a semi-automated 'this is what you probably need to do for package <foo>' generator) describing it | 02:32 |
| Kamion | on the scale of 11 years of Debian development, and by comparison to say libc6-dev, X *does* randomly move files around, and expecting every maintainer to keep up with it when it's not clearly documented for them is a bit much | 02:32 |
| fabbione | Kamion: usually it happens only on major releases | 02:33 |
| fabbione | Kamion: but that's also an upstream decision | 02:33 |
| smurfix | Kamion: so now's the chance, with the X split, to actually document it (and, dare I say, freeze the stuff...) | 02:33 |
| fabbione | Kamion: like the last library split. it was not our decision | 02:34 |
| daniels | Kamion: right now, it's so utterly random because at the time we were doing the split, neither Branden nor I had an idea of what most of them did or belonged | 02:34 |
| Kamion | sure | 02:34 |
| fabbione | Kamion: upstream changed a bunch of libs from static to shared... | 02:34 |
| daniels | Kamion: i did part of the xlibs split, so I'm thus partially to blame for the current craptastic situation | 02:34 |
| Kamion | I'm just saying that preserving build-dep compatibility *is* important | 02:34 |
| Kamion | even (or especially) if it's your (collective) mistake | 02:34 |
| daniels | Kamion: the xlibs-static-* stuff was upstream realising that saying the Xinerama API was 'too fluid for a shared library' was arse | 02:34 |
| daniels | Kamion: understood | 02:35 |
| daniels | Kamion: i'm just saying, i will be happy when no packages b-d on xlibs-dev | 02:35 |
| fabbione | Kamion: i don't disagree.. but if some changes might require other maintainers to do some work, i am not going to ask the buildd to pull 200 libs because people can't change a line in debian/control | 02:36 |
| fabbione | ^^missing: well.. they can move their butt and do it | 02:36 |
| elmo | ARGH | 02:37 |
| elmo | the buildd couldn't CARE LESS | 02:37 |
| elmo | it has the 200 packages cached | 02:37 |
| Kamion | I'm just wondering in what way you expect the release team to accept this | 02:37 |
| elmo | the time-to-install is noise on the big scale | 02:37 |
| elmo | please do not use that as an argument, it's total BS | 02:38 |
| Kamion | it's entirely possible that britney might in the future decide to hold X out of testing until it stops breaking build-deps | 02:38 |
| daniels | Kamion: neither of us are arguing to break B-Ds at the moment | 02:38 |
| Kamion | since having britney enforce that sort of thing is high on the wishlist for post-sarge | 02:38 |
| fabbione | elmo: i am not talking only about install time... | 02:38 |
| elmo | so what else is left? | 02:39 |
| elmo | removal time? | 02:39 |
| elmo | as I said, on any Debian buildd, the 200 packages will be cached locally | 02:39 |
| fabbione | elmo: space (s390), bw | 02:39 |
| elmo | s390 needs it's space fixed for other reasons - that's not an argument | 02:39 |
| elmo | it's all virtual disks anyway | 02:39 |
| Kamion | (like kde) | 02:39 |
| daniels | elmo: should we merge x back into a single package, then? | 02:39 |
| daniels | i just fundamentally fail to see how arbitrarily connecting a bunch of disconnected libraries can be a good thing | 02:40 |
| elmo | daniels: nothing I said suggested that | 02:40 |
| elmo | but it's a nice strawman | 02:40 |
| === winkle [~winkle@lgh3814234.vittran.norrnod.se] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| daniels | xlibs-dev as a concept is fundamentally dead anyway | 02:40 |
| fabbione | elmo: as soon as we reupload X and the packages needs to be refreshed.. you are starting from the beginning, but yeah.. we have resources | 02:41 |
| daniels | given that no libraries added after 4.2.x have been added to xlibs-dev, it is no longer 'the clientside X libraries' | 02:41 |
| daniels | given that two toolkits are in there, where the distinction was drawn in the first place is a mystery, anyway | 02:41 |
| Kamion | fabbione: it amortises | 02:41 |
| daniels | so right now it's just an arbitrary grouping of packages that is kept alive because of inertia | 02:42 |
| Kamion | fabbione: as soon as one package fetches some set of libraries it's free for all the others | 02:42 |
| fabbione | Kamion: yes.. i agree on that.. | 02:42 |
| fabbione | Kamion: but right now you pull 200 libs each time you ask fro xlibs-dev (and yes they get cached) | 02:43 |
| daniels | the other point is that the X packaging is still horrifically broken | 02:43 |
| Kamion | (I'm fixing most of my packages now; can't fix groff at the moment though) | 02:43 |
| fabbione | Kamion: perhaps with a proper b-d there will be less than 10 | 02:43 |
| daniels | and the damage was only barely just started to be unravelled in 4.3.0, and mistakes were made along the way | 02:43 |
| fabbione | Kamion: clearly these are just fake numbers | 02:43 |
| fabbione | Kamion: but there is still a benefit, even if minimal | 02:43 |
| Kamion | source: xfree86 only generates 26 -dev packages ;) | 02:44 |
| fabbione | Kamion: check x.org | 02:44 |
| fabbione | there must be a bunch more | 02:44 |
| Kamion | fabbione: still not 200 | 02:44 |
| fabbione | <fabbione> Kamion: clearly these are just fake numbers | 02:44 |
| Kamion | daniels: X is certainly allowed to unravel its mistakes, and that's a good thing | 02:44 |
| fabbione | 200 was to give the idea | 02:44 |
| Kamion | daniels: the point is that the rest of the distribution has to be allowed to catch up gradually, not in a flag day | 02:45 |
| daniels | Kamion: absolutely, I agree with you here | 02:45 |
| Kamion | daniels: if you guys agree on that, then we seem to be in agreement, except perhaps about what "gradually" means. :) | 02:46 |
| daniels | Kamion: (also, bear in mind that my ideal world has ~70 library source packages) | 02:46 |
| daniels | Kamion: rather violent agreement, it seems | 02:46 |
| fabbione | Kamion: but none of us ever wrote "from one day to another" | 02:46 |
| fabbione | at least.. if my short memory doesn't betrade me | 02:46 |
| Kamion | fabbione: removing xlibs-dev before all its b-ds are fixed counts as a flag day | 02:46 |
| daniels | Kamion: agreed | 02:47 |
| fabbione | Kamion: neither i wrote to do it that way | 02:47 |
| fabbione | i just expressed the whish to kill xlibs-dev | 02:47 |
| fabbione | wish even | 02:47 |
| fabbione | fabbione would really like to see xlibs-dev vanishing | 02:48 |
| Kamion | ok | 02:48 |
| fabbione | that was all i wrote | 02:48 |
| fabbione | in terms of future plans | 02:48 |
| Kamion | I understood the stuff about etch to be "come hell or high water" :) | 02:48 |
| fabbione | i didn't say to do it now or how | 02:48 |
| Kamion | alright, sorry then :) | 02:48 |
| fabbione | well clearly i would like to do it asap, but asap has a very large relative terms in debian | 02:49 |
| daniels | Kamion: basically, I know how I would like X to be packaged, and that doesn't involve xlibs* | 02:49 |
| fabbione | Kamion: don't be sorry.. i love to discuss | 02:49 |
| fabbione | Kamion: and i like to hear different opinions on stuff | 02:49 |
| fabbione | Kamion: other than daniels' one that we know are crap :P | 02:49 |

| thom | infinity: yes, that is very broken indeed | 03:04 |

| daniels | infinity: ! | 03:05 |
| elmo | please at least me allow to specify that easily | 03:05 |
| jdub | elmo: ideally, this would be power-management-user-policy stuff | 03:05 |
| jdub | but for now, perhaps we should hook it to that preference | 03:05 |
| infinity | jdub : A certain other OS that shall remain nameless makes a clear separation between "locking the screen" (ie: screensaver settings) and "lock on resume). | 03:06 |
| thom | yeah, if that's turned off in xscreensaver settings, it makes sense | 03:06 |
| jdub | elmo: it would work that way by default even with this change | 03:06 |

| jdub | okay dudes, install apache2-mpm-prefork | 03:34 |
| pitti | Kamion: could you take a look at it and finish the merge? | 03:35 |

| daniels | libapache2-mod-dav, innit? | 03:35 |
| stratus | jdub, ok | 03:35 |
| jdub | daniels: a) it's not separate anymore, b) to run apache, you need an apache server :) | 03:35 |
| smurfix | jdub: I saw that error after running gnome-file-share-properties -- it should have appeared at install time too | 03:35 |

| jdub | hooray for reusing code from leading free software projects :) | 03:38 |
| daniels | anyway, I do not see how what we have can even possibly work | 03:38 |
| jdub | mvo_: it'll stay | 03:38 |
| daniels | elmo: would really love your input on this, please | 03:38 |
| mvo_ | so I can safly use it in the update notifier tray icon? | 03:38 |
| jdub | yes, that's a great idea | 03:39 |
| jdub | mvo_: gamin is binary compat with a subset of fam, so it should work with either | 03:39 |
| stratus | jdub, but huh what's up with that default password? | 03:39 |
| mvo_ | jdub: great, thanks :) | 03:39 |
| daniels | Any package installing shared libraries in one of the default library directories of the dynamic linker (which are currently /usr/lib and /lib) or a directory that is listed in /etc/ld.so.conf[42] must use ldconfig to update the shared library system. | 03:40 |
| jdub | stratus: there is no default password, is there? | 03:40 |
| tseng | ya there is. | 03:41 |
| Kamion | pitti: sure, Md and I were talking about that | 03:41 |

| pitti | Kamion: it contains the current status of the merge and the Ubuntu diffs that I did not yet merge (udeb-relevant) | 03:42 |
| jdub | stratus: you'll always see four asterisks | 03:42 |
| jdub | stratus: however long your password is | 03:42 |
| elmo | daniels: say what? | 03:42 |
| jdub | stratus: determine the length of the password as stored in ~/.gnome2/user-share/passwd | 03:42 |
| stratus | jdub, but i didn't write nothing i just started g-f-s-p | 03:42 |
| daniels | elmo: ok, so here's the scenario | 03:42 |
| daniels | libx11-6 installed, along with libX11.so.6 and libX11.so.6.2 | 03:42 |
| daniels | calls ldconfig in postinst | 03:42 |
| jdub | stratus: even if the passwd is zero length, you will see four asterisks | 03:42 |
| daniels | -> libX11.so.6 registered with ld | 03:43 |
| daniels | --later-- | 03:43 |
| daniels | libx11-dev installed, with libX11.so | 03:43 |
| daniels | ldconfig not called in postinst | 03:43 |
| stratus | jdub, oh my failure. | 03:43 |
| daniels | would ldconfig need to be called there, to register libX11.so? or is there something I'm missing? | 03:43 |
| elmo | daniels: you're breaking my mind. you mean ld.so right? | 03:44 |
| elmo | ld(1) is very different | 03:44 |

| Kamion | pitti: can you drop that udev.startup thing from debian/rules too? I'll talk to Md about that; rootskel must be able to control d-i's startup, and /lib/debian-installer-startup.d is not a published interface for random packages to use | 03:54 |
| tseng | ok. | 03:54 |
| jdub | now it should build too | 03:54 |

| Kamion | pitti: actually, hmm | 03:56 |
| Kamion | pitti: yes, never mind me, should be fine, might have to change rootskel slightly | 03:57 |
| pitti | Kamion: so the important things are only links.conf and the dropping of udev.startup? | 04:00 |
| Kamion | pitti: in fact, I misread the diff, links.conf is still there | 04:02 |
| jdub | lamont: please kick gus :) | 04:02 |
| smurfix | jdub: Hmmm, so what do I (or anyone else for that matter) need to get Nautilus to show the public folders? I'll freely admit that I've not played with zeroconf stuff before. | 04:02 |
| Kamion | pitti: so just drop /lib/debian-installer-startup.d/S02udev, please, rest should be fine | 04:02 |
| pitti | Kamion: okay thanks | 04:02 |
| jdub | smurfix: nautilus uses gnome-vfs's howl stuff | 04:03 |
| pitti | Kamion: pure curiosity, has d-i a something similar like /etc/init.d/? | 04:03 |
| jdub | smurfix: so it should just appear in Computer > Network | 04:03 |
| pitti | Kamion: this symlink looks like sysvinit-style | 04:03 |
| jdub | smurfix: you've run gnome-file-share-properties, and verified that gnome-user-share (and apache) are running? | 04:03 |
| Kamion | pitti: kinda sorta | 04:03 |
| elmo | I wish there was a way to do opportunistic gdb-ing or strace-ing, i.e. say "next time something called 'expect' starts, attach to it" | 04:03 |
| jdub | elmo: obviously you want dtrace. | 04:04 |
| Kamion | pitti: in fact, Md's startup script will break d-i because he didn't know how it worked ... whoopsie | 04:04 |
| pitti | Kamion: so this _is_ relevant for Debian, too | 04:04 |
| pitti | Kamion: well, the Debian version currently disables it anyway | 04:04 |
| jdub | smurfix: not working? | 04:04 |
| Kamion | pitti: ... actually maybe not, he installs it executable so it'll get executed not sourced | 04:04 |
| smurfix | jdub: not so fast :-/ | 04:05 |
| Kamion | pitti: I'm still uncomfortable with /lib/debian-installer-startup.d not being entirely controlled by rootskel | 04:05 |
| Kamion | pitti: doesn't matter for Debian yet because Debian won't be using udev for a little while yet | 04:05 |
| smurfix | I'm typing with one hand | 04:05 |
| jdub | TMI | 04:05 |
| pitti | Kamion: if I understood that correctly, witht the current version udev would be started twice? | 04:05 |
| pitti | Kamion: once by rootskel, another time by this S02udev? | 04:06 |
| smurfix | jdub: it's temporary ... | 04:06 |
| eruin | what's been happening to gdesklets recently? it's more broken than what I'd be after a 90kph car-to-brick-wall-crash | 04:07 |
| Kamion | pitti: no ... rootskel already ships S02udev, so they'd clash and have to be resolved somehow anyway | 04:08 |
| pitti | eek | 04:08 |
| pitti | Kamion: okay, thanks for your help! | 04:09 |
| smurfix | jdub: Not seeing it on the desktop (which is the one publishing), or from the MacOS-X laptop. My ubuntu laptop's busy updating to Hoary at the moment. | 04:09 |
| Kamion | pitti: as it happens udev's would win because the initrd udebs get unpacked in alphabetical order | 04:09 |

| pitti | Kamion: "r"ootskel > "u"dev ??? | 04:10 |

| jdub | smurfix: type this: | 04:11 |
| jdub | mDNSBrowse _webdav._tcp | 04:11 |
| Kamion | pitti: udev's would win; it gets unpacked second and therefore overwrites | 04:12 |
| smurfix | jdub: sitting there, not doing much | 04:13 |
| pitti | Kamion: ah, I see. I thought it would be similar to dpkg where it just refuses to overwrite something | 04:13 |
| jdub | smurfix: hrm | 04:13 |
| smurfix | (mDNSBrowse, not me) | 04:13 |
| jdub | smurfix: and mdnsresponder is running? | 04:13 |

| smurfix | jdub: 20205 ? Ssl 0:00 /usr/sbin/mDNSResponder -f /etc/mdnsresponder/mDNSResponder.conf | 04:14 |
| smurfix | strace shows that it did respond to the browser's first packet | 04:14 |
| Kamion | pitti: actually, no, we don't, we use dpkg --unpack, but we also use --force-overwrite | 04:15 |
| pitti | ah | 04:15 |
| pitti | Kamion: why overwrite? Did this already occur on several other udebs? | 04:15 |
| Kamion | pitti: yes | 04:17 |
| Kamion | pitti: busybox-cvs-udeb and module-init-tools-udeb for a start | 04:17 |
| pitti | ugh, sounds like gambling | 04:17 |
| Kamion | sure, but there are some battles not worth fighting | 04:18 |

| thom | since that's the canonical bug | 04:40 |
| RubenV | ah, great :) | 04:41 |
| RubenV | didn't knew that one | 04:41 |
| RubenV | there's also an alsa one from me somewhere | 04:41 |

| jdub | smurfix: which 'stupid thing'? | 05:16 |
| smurfix | jdub: The MacOS laptop. "It doesn't work" error messages are sub-standard. | 05:22 |
| smurfix | It seems that Apple does its own zeroconf file sharing with AFP, not WebDAV. I don't feel any particular urge sto start hacking netatalk. | 05:28 |

| smurfix | It's just differently hacky than something that exists only in gnome.' | 05:37 |
| daniels | not really | 05:38 |
| daniels | gnome has its own vfs stuff | 05:38 |
| daniels | fuse is kinda handwavey there-is-no-standard-file-interface-because-I-just-replaced-it | 05:38 |
| daniels | these are entirely separate ideas | 05:38 |
| smurfix | daniels: I know they're separate ideas, that's kind of my point. | 05:40 |
| smurfix | File system contents should be visible to all programs, not just those which happen to have a gnome GUI. | 05:44 |
| daniels | mmmmm | 05:44 |
| daniels | try this: | 05:44 |
| jdub | s/have a gnome GUI/use gnome-vfs/ | 05:44 |
| smurfix | right | 05:44 |
| daniels | write a WebDAV server which sends 'Connection: keep-alive' unconditionally (because you wrote a buggy test) | 05:44 |
| daniels | sorry, Connection: close, unconditionally | 05:44 |
| daniels | then have it assume it's doing keep-alive, and keep the connection open forever | 05:45 |
| daniels | mount any volume from this WebDAV server on a Mac OS X machine | 05:45 |
| daniels | double-click on the volume, and watch Finder lock up solid | 05:45 |
| daniels | drag it over to the Dock to eject it, and watch the Dock lock up solid | 05:45 |

| === migus [~migus@netu.naquadah.org] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| daniels | i assure you, there are some *serious* issues with moving stuff like WebDAV down into the kernel | 05:46 |
| smurfix | daniels: FUSE isn't exactly doing WebDAV in the kernel. | 05:47 |
| daniels | understood, but the problem space isn't quite as simple as you make it out to be | 05:47 |
| daniels | i know, because I spent three or so days in a mount/reset cycle on the OS X machine | 05:47 |
| daniels | (afaik, the problem still isn't fixed) | 05:48 |
| smurfix | never said it was, it's just a *different* problem space, one I personally prefer. ;-) | 05:48 |
| smurfix | Anyway, Apple certainly could do a lot better in that area. They still can't keep NFS mounts over wireless networks stable. If the IP address doesn't change, that's not supposed to be difficult to do. | 05:53 |

| zul | i c..so why not rename it to ubuntu-policy? | 07:27 |
| lamont | Kamion: in fact, if ubuntu-policy does differ from debian-policy, it'd be nice if it was just a list of changes from debian policy, since it shouldn't vary _that_ much | 07:27 |
| Kamion | fabbione: with the exception of Section: devel => debian-installer, but I think you were using the previous version of kernel-wedge? | 07:27 |
| Kamion | zul: varies; we haven't renamed debian-installer for instance (and I'd be against doing so - the upstream name is "debian-installer", renaming it arrogates too much credit to ourselves) | 07:28 |
| seb128 | daniels: here ? | 07:29 |
| Kamion | zul: ubuntu-policy might be a different case, I suppose; it might depend on how much we changed or whether we just took d-p verbatim | 07:29 |
| zul | Kamion, truebut at what point would that be | 07:30 |
| Kamion | not sure | 07:30 |
| zul | you might need 2 debs...not sure either | 07:31 |
| lamont | but speaking of policy... what's the official way to add a service to /etc/services? | 07:31 |

| fabbione | pool/universe/x/xcompmgr/xcompmgr_1.1.1+cvs.20041109-0ubuntu2_i386.deb | 08:42 |
| === fabbione scratches his head | ||
| fabbione | mdz: do you know why it has been moved to universe? | 08:47 |
| fabbione | or anybody? | 08:47 |
| mdz | fabbione: moved? was it in main previously? | 08:47 |
| fabbione | yes | 08:47 |
| mdz | the two things which control that are seeds and dependencies | 08:47 |
| mdz | if it's not in a seed, and isn't depended on by anything in main, it'll go into universe | 08:48 |
| fabbione | they are xclients.. so nothing depends on it | 08:48 |
| fabbione | (together with fdclock and transset | 08:48 |
| fabbione | ) | 08:48 |
| fabbione | ok | 08:48 |
| fabbione | we might want to add them to a seed than | 08:48 |
| fabbione | but i will give daniels a remider | 08:48 |
| fabbione | brb | 08:49 |
| Kamion | mdz: which reminds me; did you see my question about pciutils-udeb and usbutils-udeb? | 08:50 |
| elmo | fabbione: daniels and jdub discussed it yesterday | 08:51 |
| Kamion | 2004-11-25 11:53:03 GMT Daniel Stone <daniel.stone@canonical.com> patch-31 | 08:51 |
| Kamion | Summary: | 08:51 |
| Kamion | fdclock/xcompmgr/transset -> universe, per jdub | 08:51 |
| Kamion | mdz: I've created all the udebs now, just need to seed them and add the necessary support to hw-detect | 08:52 |
| mdz | Kamion: no, I don't think I did | 08:53 |
| mdz | my cablemodem shat itself for about 12 hours yesterday while i was out, so I didn't have scrollback | 08:53 |
| Kamion | 20:48 < Kamion> mdz: oh, do you mind if I add pciutils-udeb, usbutils-udeb, and libusb-0.1-udeb? I need pci.ids and usb.ids now that discover1-data is no longer around to provide the names of network | 08:53 |
| Kamion | interfaces for netcfg's UI | 08:53 |
| Kamion | 20:48 < Kamion> mdz: which I had totally not thought about in advance | 08:53 |
| Kamion | 20:49 < Kamion> mdz: and getting lspci and lsusb will probably be a bonus for debugging purposes, too | 08:53 |
| Kamion | ah | 08:53 |
| mdz | sounds fine | 08:54 |
| mdz | in general, it's fine with me if you add things to the installer seed at your own discretion | 08:54 |
| Kamion | ok, thanks | 08:55 |
| mdz | it doesn't have the same associated issues as adding things to base, desktop or ship which require that those be discussed first | 08:55 |
| Kamion | haven't quite decided yet whether I want to include usbutils-udeb in any of the initrds | 08:55 |
| Kamion | I suspect not; it's a fair size and we degrade relatively gracefully | 08:56 |
| seb128 | fabbione: pong | 08:56 |
| Kamion | ooh, I have a cunning plan: I can use Enhances for a technical purpose! | 08:56 |
| === mdz gasps! | ||
| Kamion | anna is one of the very few tools anywhere in Debian that actually pays attention to and uses Enhances | 08:57 |
| fabbione | seb128: control-center is a FTBFS due to type-handling :( | 08:57 |
| seb128 | fabbione: what's wrong with type-handling ? it works on my box | 08:57 |
| fabbione | elmo, Kamion: DOH! | 08:58 |
| fabbione | seb128: it's from universe | 08:58 |
| seb128 | depends from a main should go automatically in main, right ? | 08:58 |
| seb128 | +package | 08:58 |
| fabbione | elmo, Kamion: do daniels and jdub realize that we did all this X.org sprint to get the new extensions in, like composite, ad we are taking away the only ONE available manager? | 08:59 |
| fabbione | seb128: yes, but we don't want type-handling in main :-) | 08:59 |
| Kamion | fabbione: no idea | 08:59 |
| === fabbione nods | ||
| seb128 | fabbione: arg, any reason for that ? | 08:59 |
| seb128 | what's the problem with it ? | 08:59 |
| elmo | seb128: not for type-handling - we've been trying to avoid bring that in, and have already removed it from several packages' build-depends | 08:59 |
| fabbione | seb128: i remember that we were told to remove it from everywhere | 09:00 |
| Kamion | seb128: ECRACK basically | 09:00 |
| seb128 | ok | 09:00 |
| seb128 | it has been added in some GNOME package because some BSD guys submitted patches IIRC | 09:00 |
| fabbione | yeah! another 2 and a half kernels to go | 09:01 |
| seb128 | should I slay it on the debian side too ? :) | 09:01 |
| Kamion | seb128: I'll take a guess that that was the author of type-handling | 09:01 |
| fabbione | guys.. my apologizes if i was bitching on X compilation time | 09:01 |
| fabbione | i really really feel sorry for that | 09:01 |
| fabbione | the kernel is MUCH worst | 09:01 |
| fabbione | specially when you compile it in 200 flavours | 09:02 |
| fabbione | including the choccolate cake one with coffe.ko | 09:02 |
| seb128 | Kamion: yep, just checked (ie: #272722) | 09:02 |

| mdz | seb128: type-handling is fairly crackful | 10:08 |
| jdub | mdz: tried gnome-user-share? | 10:09 |
| mdz | nope | 10:09 |
| jdub | mdz: it will most likely be in gnome 2.9, and depends on apache2 and mdnsresponder. :-) | 10:09 |
| mdz | "easy user-level file sharing" is defiintely a gap that needs filling | 10:09 |
| mdz | it is not, however, something that warrants open ports by default :-) | 10:10 |
| seb128 | mdz: ok, I've not played with it so I didn't know :) | 10:10 |
| jdub | :-) | 10:10 |
| Mithrandir | mdz: sounds crackful. | 10:10 |
| jdub | by default, it's not on | 10:10 |
| mdz | jdub: no problem, then? | 10:10 |
| jdub | but there's a black cloud hanging over mdnsresponder | 10:10 |
| jdub | which will be very un-zeroconf if it doesn't listen by default | 10:10 |
| mdz | mdnsresponder just needs some smarts so that it is only enabled if the user has asked for it | 10:10 |
| mdz | this is something where I think we are justified in being bull-headed | 10:11 |
| jdub | yeah | 10:11 |
| mdz | I need to read up on how it works so that I can understand the security model | 10:11 |
| mdz | but I'm ostensibly off today and will be heading out soon | 10:12 |
| mdz | if you have some pointers to resources on that subject, please send them to me | 10:12 |
| jdub | it's the kind of thing that could be run by the library when required, but unfortunately, it listens on :5353 udp | 10:12 |
| jdub | and there must only be one daemon because of that | 10:12 |
| seb128 | jdub: GNOME used to have a preview of the mouse cursors, right ? | 10:12 |
| === hazmat [~hazmat@c-24-15-10-12.client.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| jdub | seb128: not a proper one, no | 10:13 |
| jdub | seb128: it had a "small" and "large" picture, but it wasn't of the actual cursor | 10:13 |
| seb128 | jdub: I swear I can remember a screen with cursor pictures | 10:13 |
| seb128 | oh, perhaps that's it so | 10:13 |
| jdub | yeah, it was in the old mouse properties dialogue | 10:13 |
| jdub | we haven't had anything that handles cursor themes though | 10:14 |
| seb128 | how old is the dialog ? I don't find the change in the ChangeLog | 10:14 |
| jdub | hrm, that probably disappeared in 2.4 | 10:14 |
| seb128 | ok | 10:15 |
| seb128 | I'm doing some bug triage in the control-center's bugzilla, not always easy to understand the bug without the old capplet to compare :) | 10:16 |
| jdub | oh yeah, it's turkey day | 10:17 |
| fabbione | jdub: want to take a look at http://people.ubuntulinux.org/~fabbione/changelog before i upload? | 10:21 |
| jdub | fabbione: cool | 10:23 |
| jdub | exciting :) | 10:23 |
| Mithrandir | jdub: have you done any fun stuff on libuser? | 10:23 |
| jdub | Mithrandir: haven't had time :| | 10:23 |
| === fabbione uploads | ||
| jdub | Mithrandir: perhaps we should beg lifeless to import it asap :) | 10:24 |
| jdub | fabbione: so i guess i should bring on the U5 :-) | 10:25 |
| Mithrandir | jdub: I guess so, so we havething to work off.. I hope I | 10:25 |
| Mithrandir | 'm able to do something next week, but exam on Monday, so.. | 10:25 |
| fabbione | jdub: if it can boot 2.6 | 10:26 |
| fabbione | thom claims his u10 can't | 10:26 |
| jdub | duck | 10:27 |
| jdub | er | 10:27 |
| jdub | suck | 10:27 |
| fabbione | accepted | 10:32 |
| === jdub wonders which OS this machine runs | ||
| jdub | ah | 10:36 |
| jdub | solaris 9 | 10:36 |
| sjoerd | an U10 is just an U5 in another box right ? | 10:37 |
| jdub | i think so | 10:37 |
| fabbione | get ready for -19 | 10:38 |
| fabbione | there was an error in debian/control | 10:38 |
| jdub | U5 is surprisingly noisy | 10:39 |
| sjoerd | the front fan is noisy | 10:39 |
| sjoerd | my U5 runs 2.6.9 just fine so.. | 10:39 |
| jdub | fabbione: so you reckon a sarge install and piecemeal upgrades to your packages is the best bet? | 10:40 |
| fabbione | no | 10:40 |
| fabbione | there is a much better way | 10:40 |
| fabbione | install sarge in the future swap | 10:41 |
| jdub | aha | 10:41 |
| jdub | and debootstrap into the / ? | 10:41 |
| fabbione | install debootstrap from ubuntu and patch it with debootstrap.diff from the website | 10:41 |
| fabbione | and than debootstrap it | 10:41 |
| jdub | nice | 10:41 |
| fabbione | you need to find a way to make the _all.deb available to your machine | 10:41 |
| fabbione | my archive is only _sparc.deb | 10:41 |
| fabbione | ok.. _19 is going up | 10:43 |
