lamontMithrandir: perl's love of terse punctuation and uninitialized variables means that it does unexpected things unless you really dig into the language.01:04
lamontI genenerally find that I have to use perl just often enough to have a learning curve every time.01:05
lamontBradB: every other use in that file is setting variables that are not set.01:05

lamontjdub about?01:43
magnonew. Xorg just went unkillable @ 100% cpu and wouldn't let me get rid of it without rebooting.02:00
makothe ubuntu talk at GLUEV just went *really* well02:01
magnonmako: feeds?02:01
makopeople *literally* fought over the last cds :)02:01
magnon:D02:01
makothey nearly tore one of them in half!02:01
makothe box, not the cd :)02:01
makoand i did something you're never supposed to do02:02
makoduring the question time, i did an ubuntu install onto a compuer i'd never used before02:02
makojust someone who anted to install ubuntu02:02
makoand it worked prefectly :)02:03
magnonlet me guess, it got seamlessly installed02:03
magnon:)02:03
makoi thought that doing something untested in fromt of 600 peopple is guarentted to make it breka :)02:03
makowow.. that was mangled02:03
jdublamont: pong02:04
magnonmako: are there video feeds?02:04
makomagnon: there will be.. i don't know if they are yet02:04
magnonok02:04
makoi have pretty extensive notes and slides online though02:04

magnonmako: where?02:06
azeemtonight, two guys from the BSP here gave a talk about d-i and they decided to try out LVM for the first time...02:06
makoazeem: where they as lucky as me?02:06
azeemthey used the whole partition and then failed to install lilo02:07
jdubmako: i heard GULEV was rad02:07
makojdub: it's really really cool02:07
lamontjdub: feeling kind enough to add ia64 to bugzilla's list of architectures?02:07
makothere were only 3 non-spanish talks02:07
lamontor is that a 'discuss this more first' thing?02:07
jdublamont: hrm02:07
lamontjdub: exactly02:08
=== lamont decided to pretend and just file bugs against ia64, you see...
lamontso they're all 'Other' right now.02:08
makojdub: it's totally the kind of conference we want to be at02:08
makothe only thing i have to complain about is the headache i get from all  the tequila :)02:09
lamontmako: after 4 you're supposed to be unconcious....02:10
lamonts/nc/nsc/02:10
makolamont: didn't work that way last night 02:10
makolamont: might have beeter if it had02:10
makolast talk now.. rms is talking now :)02:11
jdubdid you bring vegetables?02:12
makojdub: i think its prudent to forget them. he likes us remember? :)02:12
azeemthat was before multiverse02:13
makoazeem: richard doesn't know about multiverse :)02:13
jdubmako: i only bring him up just to tear him down02:13
makojdub: that man is very depressed.02:14
makoyou would feel sorry for him but he is VERY annoying about it02:14
makoazeem: but we also allow GFDL documentation02:14
lamonteven with multiverse, we're simply allowing end users to run whatever they feel they need on their machine... dammit, it's more freedom for the end user.02:15
makoazeem: that ought to get on his good side02:15
jdublamont: um, i'm not sure i know how.02:15
lamontand the main/restricted universe/multiverse split helps make it clear what you're doing...02:15
jdubhow on earth did i get lumped with bugzilla maintenance, anyway?02:15
makorichared ends up supporting distributions that are unknowingly distribuint free software02:15
thomjdub: no-one else wanted it?02:15
jdubthom: stfu!02:16
lamontjdub: have to edit the list of platforms in the localconfig file, then run checksetup.pl to copy it to the database02:16
azeemlamont: hey, I'm not judging you, just pointing out his possible line of reasoning02:16
lamontazeem: yeah02:16
jdublamont: seriously? i can't do that02:16
lamontno shell access there?02:16
lamontoh thom bot... :-)02:16
jdubHA HA HA02:16
makorather than supporting distributions that make it clear when you are using non-free and letting people make adult decisions.. and making freedom the default02:16
thommail me02:17
thomi'm going to bed now02:17
lamontjdub: you wanna mail him, or want I should just cc you on the mail...02:17
lamont?02:17
makodude, the main organizer for this conference had a baby LAST WEEK02:19
makothat guy is A SUPERMAN02:19
lamontmako: or was it his wife?02:20
makowell, his wife gave birth i suppose02:20
makolamont: that's my best guess at least02:21
makoi didn't ask02:21
mako:)02:21

KeyserSozeanyone that can tell my why the enlightenment package says "not available" on hoary amd6404:00
jdubelmo: how big is a mirror of warty main?04:21
jdubelmo: also, can someone mirror warty-security on its own?04:21
elmojdub: err, I _think_ main is about 6Gb for one distro04:23
elmoyou can only mirror one distro with a script like debmirror04:23
=== lamont does a partial mirror by munging Packages/Sources files.
lamontugly but mostly works.04:24
lamontKeyserSoze: d-w libfnlib-dev04:24
lamontwhich is d-w libtool1.4, which won't be fixed.04:25
lamontso...  create a patch for fnlib that moves it to libtool instead of libtool1.4, and I'll upload it, and we'll quite possibly be enlightened...04:25
jdubelmo: one distro meaning 'warty' or 'hoary'?04:26
elmojdub: yeah04:27
elmopool/main == 13Gb, which matches my memory of warty being 6Gb last time I had a local mirror of it04:27
lamontwarty main+source fits on a dvd04:27
jdubcool04:27
lamontwith room to spare.04:27
=== lamont will bring his warty install dvd to mataro with him
elmojdub: yeah, bear in mind that 6Gb is for 3 arches +source04:28
lamonter, warty i386/main + source fits on a dvd - thanks elmo04:28
jdubnice04:28
jdubit's pretty small04:28
lamontjdub: dvd has i386+source main/restricted, bits of universe/multiverse, and theopencd04:28
jdubheh04:30
jduband the livecd tacked on? ;)04:30
lamontelmo: btw, libtool1.4 can move to universe.04:30
lamont'k thanks bye04:30
lamontyeah04:30
lamontoh. no livecd04:30
jdubthat'd be cool04:30
lamontdidn't want to make it dual boot you see...04:30
jdub;)04:30
lamontand I had to shave stuff to fit on the dvd as it was04:30
lamontwas very sad.04:30
lamont4.7GB == 4700000 bytes04:30
jdubno good having a stubbly dvd04:30
lamontwhich truely sucks04:30
elmojdub: gnome-user-share in a seed or should it be in universe?04:31
jdubelmo: universe until it's proposed and accepted04:31
jdubthanks04:32
lamontelmo: actually, if libtool1.4 isn't seeded, then it'll automagically move to universe, yes?04:43

lamontwhich is to say that enlightenment may be there in about 45 minutes05:02

lamontelmo: shame we don't allow previously uncompiled universe packages to enter warty as I free up build-deps. :-(05:05
jdubhrm05:06
jdubdh_python does not love me05:06
elmolamont: you can upload to warty-updates if you want05:06

elmothat propagation shit is fucking satanic05:06
jdublamont: yeah05:06

elmothere's a screenshot of it in action next to "WHEN DWIM GOES WRONG" entry in a dictionary somewhere05:07

jdubelmo: so then you should also back me up when baby jesus is crying :-)05:11
jdublamont: bong05:11
lamontjdub: bugs.debian.org/283174, click on the byacc.diff attachement (which says text/plain), and that's where I go.05:13

jdubweird05:15

KeyserSozedunno about i386 but it doesn't work in amd6406:19
KeyserSozePackage enlightenment is not available,06:19
KeyserSozeI see06:21
lamontKeyserSoze: let me check again06:21
KeyserSozethere is no amd64 package for it06:22
KeyserSozethats why06:22
lamontalthough this is really a #ubuntu question...06:22
KeyserSozeI know06:22
KeyserSozebut I've been asking there for a while06:22
KeyserSozethe reason is that there is no amd64 in the pool/universe/e/enlightenment dir06:22
KeyserSozejust i386,ia64 and powerpc06:23
GotD0tlamont: where would i find log files that might tell me why X crashed after running a 3d Accelerated game?06:24
KeyserSozein /var/log/Xorg.0.log06:26
KeyserSozeor in your home dir .xsession-errors06:26
lamontKeyserSoze: )&%*%^&*(^*(_ wanna-build propogation06:29
lamontthat, and the fact that fnlib hasn't changed since warty froze06:29

=== steved [~steve@static24-72-62-185.regina.accesscomm.ca] has joined #ubuntu-devel
lamontKeyserSoze: yeah - pb was that what I did earlier caused fnlib to build for _WARTY_ not hoary (and get rejected, etc.)06:31
KeyserSozeok06:31
lamontupload for hoary just happened, will be in the archive in 30 minutes, and enlightenment should hit just over an hour from now06:32

lamontwell, that'd mean that the -L needs to come before that one, too. :-)06:51
KeyserSozethis is all busted06:52
lamontxorg broke up all the xlibs, and this causes some amount of pain for packages...06:52
KeyserSozehow are you getting this to build without manual changes06:52
lamonthaven't yet.06:52
KeyserSozehehe06:52
lamontall I did was coax the buildd into building fnlib/hoary/amd6406:53
lamontand in about 10 minutes, that'll show up in the repository, and free everything that's d-w libfnlib-dev, to build or fail as it sees fit...06:53

KeyserSozeI just compiled enlight07:22
lamontso unpack it, save that directory, make the change, say 'diff -ur old new' and send me that output...07:23

lamontlamont@canonical.com07:24
KeyserSozebut I'm too lazy to make a diff and stuff ;)07:24

jdubfabbione: so i need the debootstrap from hoary;01:36
jdubfabbione: where was the patch?01:36
fabbionejdub: same place where the debs are01:37
fabbionei am not sure 100% you can bootstrap.. the base debs should be there already01:37
jdubfabbione: oh, your debs?01:37
fabbionejdub: in the middle of my debs there is a .diff :-)01:38
fabbionedebootstrap.diff01:38
fabbioneremember that you need to find a way to make the _all.deb available to your debootstrap01:39
fabbioneit's not extremely simple yet01:39
jdubhow do you mean?01:39
fabbionethat in the sparc dir there are only the _sparc.deb01:39
jduboh, so _all has to come from archive.ubuntu.com or wherever?01:40
fabbioneyou need to make the _all.deb available to debootstrap somehow01:40
fabbionejdub: yes... and that makes it complex01:40
jduboh, i have to rebuild debootstrap on sparc?01:40

fabbionetrue01:46
fabbionejdub: well just wait.. it's better01:46
fabbioneatm it is just pure crack to mix the archive properly and make debootstrap happy01:46
Kamionso can I start running germinate against your archive + archive.ubuntu.com to generate debootstrap/sparc?01:47
fabbioneKamion: i would wait a bit still01:47
fabbionebut if you want you are welcome to start01:48
fabbioneit's not a complete main yet01:48
Kamionif it's got all of base it should work fine01:48

Kamionyeah, I only need base for debootstrap though01:48
Kamionwhere's the archive?01:48

fabbioneKamion: the debootstrap.diff is almost mandary01:49

fabbioneit works around 2 things atm01:49
fabbioneltrace is not for sparc01:49
Kamionyuh-huh, but I refuse to maintain that manually :)01:49
fabbione-> moved to the different $archs01:49
KamionI can generate all this stuff automatically; I've been doing so for amd64/i386/powerpc for six months01:49
fabbioneoh sure01:49
Kamionthat's what required-base.py does01:50
fabbioneit was just to show you how it should look after germinate output01:50
fabbionelvm2 and strace are FTBFS on sparc atm01:50
fabbioneand libreadline5 is required to install a bunch of base01:50
Kamionthat sounds like a bug, we got rid of it from hoary01:50
fabbionelvm2 needs to deal with a big 32/64 api/abi problem01:50
Kamionafter a bunch of syncs from Debian01:51
fabbioneKamion: probably it will disappear after i finish to rebuild ubuntu on ubuntu01:51
Kamionshould do01:51
fabbionebut if i did build libreadline5 it means that it was in main at some point01:51
Kamionyes, it was01:51
fabbionewell.. than some of my pkgs have used it01:52
fabbioneand probably still are01:52
Kamionthe build-deps should be tighter now01:52

Matt|the version of evolution in hoary is beyond a joke - It's totally unusable. is there any chance of reverting to an older version?04:12
azeemMatt|: uhm, hoary is the development branch, right?04:13
Matt|yes04:13
Matt|but this version of evolution cannot be tested - it crashes so randomly that no profit is had by using it04:14
Matt|and i assume the problems are all upstream04:14
lemsx1Matt|, you are right about that... 2.1 is very unstable04:15
carlosMatt|: it works here04:15
lemsx1Matt|, and all upstream04:15

lemsx1carlos, you don't use imap to access your mail right?04:15
carlosno, pops04:16
Matt|carlos, you don't get random crashing?04:16
lemsx1carlos, that's part of why it works for you... but does it crash at all?04:16
Matt|i use pop only and it's always crashing when I open messages and click on windows and all sorts04:16
carlosno, I got 0 crashes04:17
carlosand I'm using it since long ago04:18

Matt|but they are upstream problems. Could a previous version of evo not be used?04:24
tsengyou are in the devel branch04:25
tsengit tracks devel versions of key components04:25
tsengit would suck to be at the end of hoarys 6 month cycle and just start adding this stuff04:25
tsengthats now how it works.04:25
Matt|you are right04:25
tsengif you want stable versions, see warty.04:25
tsengif you want to test the latest, keep tracking bugzilla :)04:26
Matt|tseng, i don't have the expertise to understand the complete randomness with which evolution crashes upon clicking on various parts of the window04:26
Matt|but i take your point04:26
tsengalso, remember that evolution used to be developed by Ximian internally04:27
tsengthey are still adjusting to the gnome proper way of things04:27
tsenglike.. always stable devel branches :)04:27
Matt|yeah guess so04:28
Matt|they should have kept it separate ;)04:28
tsengno, it will be better someday04:28
tsengfor everyone.04:28
Matt|here's hoping04:28
tseng:P04:28
Matt|if they integrate it too much into gnome they'll have to call it outlook express tho04:29
tsengnot true04:29
Matt|well obviously not literally04:30
tsengit has a seperate backend for data storage that apps are integrating with04:30
tsengmostly not directly with the evolution client04:30
Matt|tseng, do you use #ubuntu?04:31
Matt|i want to ask you some questions about evolution but they are not really appropriate for this chan04:31

Nafallohi all! any drawbacks by mixing debian woody and ubuntu warty? I don't want my server without security updates.05:05
KamionUbuntu warty has security updates05:05
Kamionit also entirely supersedes woody by about two years; I wouldn't recommend mixing the two05:06
NafalloKamion: so do woody. that's why I run both of them on my current server :-).05:06
azeemyou'd have to violate APT a lot to actually get those two to mix, I bet05:06
Kamionyou probably *can*, but there's little point, since nearly every package in woody will be replaced by much newer versions in warty05:06
Nafalloazeem: in what way? :-)05:06
azeemwhat Kamion said05:07
NafalloKamion: nope, I couldn't find the jabber server for example :-/.05:07
elmoit's in universe05:07
Nafalloelmo: and that repo hasn't got security updates :-).05:08
Kamionwell, it would depend on whether woody's jabber actually works with woody ...05:09
Kamioner, with warty05:09
NafalloKamion: it does :-)05:09
NafalloKamion: everything I got currently running does :-).05:09
