[12:44] usual: that would be one reason [12:44] ok [12:44] generally speaking, things come from debian unstable [12:45] unless they're feature goals (like gnome) [12:45] I see [12:48] lamont, ubuntu hoary should release with the icon in the menu in this ss [12:48] http://files.subpop.net/daily-ss.jpg === x4m [~max@21.157-136-217.adsl.skynet.be] has joined #ubuntu-devel [01:46] Kamion: ping [02:08] Can anyone say what went wrong with this build? it's got a build dep of automake1.7 but it's trying to find automake1. http://people.ubuntu.com/~lamont/buildLogs/k/kdesdk/4:3.3.2-1ubuntu1/kdesdk_4:3.3.2-1ubuntu1_20041226-0237-i386-failed === lamont looks [02:10] Riddell: heh. whoever uploaded it needs to fix the Build-Depends line [02:11] (there is no 'automake1.' package...)

[02:15] but finally just pointed it off-site to get the d-i its.

[02:16] Kamion: but it's so slow it hurts. :-( [02:17] Riddell: tell me which package it should build-dep on, and I'll upload it [02:17] Riddell: get Chris Halls to recommend you [02:17] Riddell: and what Kamion said.

[02:19] Kamion: when do you think a ubuntu installer POT files would be available in rosetta? === lamont grumbles at 5MB source balls [02:23] Kamion: very strange, that's not what I have in my kdesdk_3.3.2-1ubuntu1.diff.gz I gave to amu [02:23] Riddell: 1.7, yes?> [02:23] Kamion: who do I get Chris Halls to recommend me to? [02:23] Riddell: but definitely in the archive as automake1. [02:23] is there a good reason for it to be bulid-dep'ing on automake at all? [02:23] Riddell: eventually to the technical board [02:23] sivang: good question, it's somewhat on my to-do list. In the meantime there's http://people.ubuntu.com/~cjwatson/installer-po/, which has most of the first-stage interesting bits [02:23] lamont: actually 1.9 may be better [02:23] bob2: many things are debatable. [02:23] sivang: (that URL's regenerating at the moment) [02:24] Riddell: pick one. I won't be able to build before I toss it at the archive... [02:24] Riddell: as lamont says, community council and tech board; note that our sysadmins are 1.5-out-of-2 on holiday at the moment [02:25] Kamion: can country teams use this url to upload into rosetta? [02:25] sivang: please don't do so until I give the OK [02:25] I don't want random translations floating about without anything coherent being done about them [02:25] Kamion: Ok, no prob, so in the meanwhile I don't see much point in taking them at all :) I will just wait for it to be put there by you. === janc [~janc@D5762EAB.kabel.telenet.be] has joined #ubuntu-devel [02:26] at the moment the only semi-official reason that URL exists is because a third-party translation company is getting up to speed [02:26] I'll probably get it polished up after New Year [02:27] Rosetta's definitely a goal for it once I'm sure it's all accurate source [02:27] Kamion: just on the off chance you didn't know (duh) d-i at 9600-serial _SUCKS_ [02:27] Kamion: what languages are they going to be doing? I've talked with the pro-translation cordinator on Mataro..:) [02:28] sivang: dunno actually, I guess I'll find out [02:28] Xhosa was mentioned but I think she wasn't entirely sure herself yet [02:28] Riddell: you want 1.9 or 1.7? [02:28] Kamion: Xhosa = Adi ? [02:30] lamont: automake1.9 please [02:31] lamont: what's wrong with 5meg sources? [02:31] they're large [02:31] anyway, I'm out. Night all. [02:31] night sivang [02:31] Night lamnot [02:31] night sivang [02:31] night ogra [02:32] sivang: right [02:33] Kamion: k:) night [02:34] Riddell: uploaded [02:34] sadly, it'll be 30 minutes before the buildds take it [02:35] lamont: thanks [02:35] np [02:35] Kamion: and for the record, tftp booting the business card ISO doesn't work. :-) [02:36] Kamion: well, it works. But it doesn't do what I wanted. :( [02:37] can't you tftp-boot the vmlinu[xz] /initrd.gz? [02:37] Kamion: yeah - actually went with 'boot.img' :) [02:38] sadly, that lacks all the pretty installer pieces, as does the local mirror. :( [02:38] what I really could have used was a way to tell d-i that /cdrom was populated, and to just get on with life. [02:38] (netcat and tar are your friend, you see...) [02:39] that's more the job of hd-media image types [02:39] and iso-scan [02:40] I find that the hppa port is making a wonderful harness for testing my per-suite changes in the buildd's... [02:40] Kamion: well, yes... it was just an idea I had before I punted. [02:43] Kamion: ok. now how do I change the mirror location before istalling the base system? [02:43] you didn't get choose-mirror presented to you by default? [02:44] yeah. I need to change the answer [02:44] or the install will take until next weke [02:44] go back to the main menu and select that item [02:44] week, even [02:44] doh [02:46] and it automagically jumps back into installing the base system. I guess that's cool [02:46] dependency-driven menu :) [02:46] ah [02:54] of course, the downside was that the only way I had to get back to the main menu was to yank the rug out from under the download.... === usual [~colin@alb-69-202-45-196.nycap.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel [03:09] Kamion: tomorrow I'll get the connectors I need, and get my cyclades box installe.d [03:36] debian-kernel seems to be moving towards the one-source-for-all-architectures model fairly rapidly now [03:36] (of course, they always wanted to) [04:09] cool so they are helping upstream get the archs more in sync? [04:18] I think they always have been, just coordinating better now [04:19] but also just putting all the patches in one source package; it's not as if it's hard to #ifdef them for one architecture if necessary [04:27] yea [04:27] putting it all in one source will lead them to wanting to push as much as possible upstream though ;) [04:27] which is a good thing === usual [~colin@alb-69-202-45-196.nycap.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel === zul [~chuck@zul.developer.gentoo] has joined #ubuntu-devel === johanbr [~j@d207-81-98-60.bchsia.telus.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel === enrico [~enrico@enrico.developer.debian] has joined #ubuntu-devel [07:52] morning [07:54] http://ubuntu-bp.sourceforge.net/ [07:54] bp?

[02:15] sjoerd: so I put a small script on the device to mount it [02:16] sjoerd: just a ext2 filesystem "mount -oloop /media/usbkey/secrets.loop /media/usbkeys/secrets" [02:17] sjoerd: gvm says "do you want to run .autorun" and I say yes [02:17] for writing complaints blogs like thius : &userguide-rev; [02:17] ^ [02:17] /home/pooh/devel/docteam/faq/faq/trunk/usersguide.xml:20: parser error : Entity 'userguide-rev' not defined [02:17] &userguide-rev; [02:17] only problem is that the device is mounted noexec :S [02:18] JD: why is that a problem?

Happy whatever-winter-holiday-you-happen-to-celebrate! =) [02:20] ehheeh [02:20] JD: any reason why your using a loop device btw ? [02:20] thanks! same there [02:20] sjoerd: because windows likes to format non-fat devices? [02:20] sjoerd: and at somepoint I might use an encrypted loopback [02:21] ah [02:21] we should start supporting encrypted filesystems on removable storage nicely rsn now [02:22] sjoerd: so the device is fat, but it has a ext2 filesystem on it for my gpg keys and stuff [02:22] sjoerd: that would be so lovely [02:22] so you'll get a better solution for that [02:23] I want to plug my key in it get mounted and possibly for gnome-keyring to decrypt it for me [02:23] all wthout me doing anything (except giving a passphrase) [02:25] JD: that'd be great :) === Treenaks wants that too 8) [02:26] sjoerd: it can still make sarge :P [02:26] Ubuntu SargE?

[08:11] I have already some peopel over my country team that want to start trasnlating, some of them I think even attempted uploading some templates.. [08:12] this could result in the random arbitrary translations floating problem.. [08:13] sivang: uh.. most stuff in Rosetta has been RE-translated into Dutch because the Rosetta people didn't upload the already-translated .po's [08:14] Treenaks: this will happen also for hebrew I think, I don't know how long I can stop people from uploading :) although I asked really nicely.

[10:35] i think using @debian addresses for ubuntu thing may be not that great an idea [10:35] mako: Hmmm [10:36] mako: OK, then hire me and give me a @canonical address. 1/2 :-) [10:36] hey, me too !! [10:36] mako: The one you used is the next best choice though, so OK. [10:36] there are people in debian who are a little annoyed at unbuntu/canonical.. we don't need to invite "You are abusing debian resources" on top of everything :) [10:36] *g* [10:37] mako: true ... [10:37] smurfix: i looked and saw what you emailed me about country teams from most recently [10:37] my lbdb picks up emails from you at like 10 different addresses :) [10:38] mako: Ten's a lot. Probably includes all the @noris.* addresses I still carry around in my gpg keyring. [10:40] heh [10:40] give away @canonical so people can use them for their debian packages ;) [10:40] appear to slowly take over debian, muhaha ;) [10:40] slowly?

They want to be released as well!" :) [10:45] woo, the cons list is a lot longer [10:45] ogra: doesn't mean it carries more weight though [10:46] i know , quality matters, not quantitiy [10:46] "What about the rest of the toys in Toy Story? They want to be released as well!" best argument to keep releasing ;) [10:46] kylem: ah didn't see your comment :P [10:46] :P [10:47] One might argue that LetUbuntuReleaseForUs already *is* the current release strategy, as opposed to ReleaseWhenReady :-/ [10:47] fabbione: I'm going to be around most of the time [10:48] trying to get Debian Developers to release sarge is like trying to get them all to go to dinner [10:48] mdz: when a guy ask if -devel is the right place to mail when a package does build, include something saying that's not when you reply :p [10:48] s/does/doesn't/ [10:48] Kamion: yes, absolutely we should put ubuntu-keyring in main [10:48] Kamion: in fact it probably ought to go in base [10:49] seb128: but it is, until (and unless) we have a separate mailing list for MOTU [10:49] grumpf [10:50] it's certainly better than filing bugs [10:50] the list is about the development, isn't it ? [10:50] bugzilla is the right place [11:05] seb128: these are universe packages [11:05] if they're filed in bugzilla, they are ignored [11:05] fabbione: ping [11:06] on -devel, there is the hope that someone will see it and care to fix it [11:06] the reason I didn't say anything on the matter is that I don't have a good answer yet as to the correct place to send those reports [11:07] the MOTU stuff needs some organization [11:08] mdz: if ubuntu universe comes from sid, maybe just use this as a call to give even more support to sid's pkgs through ubuntu? [11:08] sivang: what do you mean? [11:09] mdz: thuse utilizing sid's already existant infrastructre [11:09] mdz: that it, debian BTS etc.. [11:09] that would require that people wanting to do maintenance in universe become Debian developers, and we absolutely will not do that [11:10] we will empower users to do work in universe directly through Ubuntu [11:10] mdz: but if you let people upload and contrib, and ubuntu staffer sync it to sid, then they don't need to become dds [11:10] mdz: they will be like "sponsered" from debian's point of view. [11:10] I guess I don't understand what you're proposing, then [11:11] mdz: probably :) I will try to rephrase and say again... [11:11] the problem is that Ubuntu users don't have a clear place to go for problems in universe [11:11] the solution proposed by the community council is the formation of an Ubuntu team to do that maintenance [11:12] Debian cannot be a solution to this problem, because it has its own social and organizational requirements which are separate from Ubuntu's [11:12] that team will, of course, be encouraged to feed their changes upstream to Debian in the usual ways [11:13] but they will not upload packages to Debian, unless they happen to be Debian developers and can do so according to Debian's methodology [11:13] they will upload to Ubuntu [11:14] yes, and DD which are also ubuntu maintainers could "sponser" this uploads back to debian ? or is this colliding with debian strucutre again? [11:14] *DDS [11:15] in Debian, it is only acceptable to upload packages that are maintained by someone else, under specific circumstances [11:15] I see. [11:15] so it would be in extremely bad taste to push those packages to Debian as a matter of course [11:15] then an infrastructre must be set up... [11:15] for the MOTU people. [11:17] mdz: if people start using -devel as a bug tracker for universe the list will be flooded with that and most of the devels will not keep reading it because of the bad SNR [11:17] sivang: yes, that is the plan [11:17] this could maybe take the from of debian forge....then ubuntu would build those pacakges, and a proper note would be made to tell peopel who enaable universe that their system may break...but a bug system must be set up. [11:17] seb128: if that happens, we will absolutely create a new list [11:17] (by saying debian forge I meant alioth) [11:18] mdz: ok ... [11:18] I am concerned about prematurely splitting lists; it divides the community's attention [11:18] creating new lists should only be done to address traffic overload, not because of perceived possible traffic issues. [11:18] I already find we have too many bug with user questions or bug reports on -devel [11:18] s/bug/mail/ [11:19] but perhaps that's only me ... [11:19] wow.. #ubuntu-devel lives! [11:19] mako: yeah, but we're all on vacation, I think. [11:19] maybe a seperate bug reporting system should be set up for universe... [11:20] lamont: i'm not :) [11:20] mako: ah, ok. I am. [11:20] sivang: launchpad [11:20] lamont: i'm FREEZING in an nyc apartment with broken heat wish i was back in spain [11:20] ogra: yes :) [11:20] :) [11:20] mako: me too :) === mako makes like an eskimo and *chills* [11:20] seb128: there are some, but compared to, say, debian-devel the SNR is great === ogra hands a blanket to mako [11:21] mdz: that's a start. If we don't stop it now .... [11:21] seb128: ideally, we will eventually have a proper support tracker and bug tracker for everything, and that should help a lot [11:21] people will start thinking that's the right list for this sort of stuff and then we are stucked [11:21] ogra: dude, i'm been learning to type from under a down blanket all day :) [11:21] until that time, it doesn't seem right to tell people to just go away [11:21] they need someplace to go [11:21] mako: hit -6F last week here. [11:21] bugzilla for bugs, -user for user questions [11:22] mdz: a temporary list until malone is up and running FOSS wide? [11:22] support stuff should definitely go to -user [11:22] or any of the support channels [11:22] mako: i know how that feels lived 2 years in an old factory without heating ;) [11:22] lamont: ***brrr*** [11:22] but we cannot have every bug report about a universe package go into bugzilla; it is already very difficult to work with [11:22] paid support, etc [11:22] they need to be separate [11:22] mdz: and we can get every bug report about universe on -devel so ? [11:23] seb128: they require much less resources to process on -devel than in bugzilla [11:23] because few people use it atm [11:23] and more people see them, so they are more likely to get fixed [11:24] I would rather use -users [11:24] seb128: only a few developers read -users [11:24] I'm happy to leave this up to whoever drives the MOTU [11:24] I think it will probably become a separate list [11:24] mako: I now, but if we keep it in this way, only a few developers will read -devel [11:25] s/now/know [11:25] mdz: probably, it's not exactly suited for -users, and -devel we want to keep as low in traffic as possible. [11:25] why not a seperate bugzilla? === sivang is really glad to read about 60-80 mails per day in -devel. [11:25] you guys don't read the gnome list ? [11:26] seb128: i don't [11:26] seb128: I read gnome-love... [11:26] desktop-devel is a good example of list with very few RSN [11:26] mako: malone [11:26] mdz: well, if we had malone doing what we wanted this wouldn't be an issue at all, right? [11:26] I mean, they do this because devels are busy and tend to unsubscribe really quickly when a list start to deal with user threads and bug reports [11:26] mako: well, there is more to universe than bug reports [11:26] IIRC, malone is supposed to be the FOSS Universal bug tracker right? [11:27] mdz: heh, clearly :) [11:27] personally I think that bugzilla is not very workable for this [11:27] whether a separate instance, a separate product, whatever [11:27] hrm.. mysql-dfsg unhappy x4 [11:27] it would be confusing [11:27] users would need to know ahead of time where to go === mako nods [11:28] i guess a seperate mailing list is the sanest course when things out of hand [11:28] just add a list universe so ... [11:28] mailing list for the meanwhile, malone in the future. [11:28] I don't want to create a mailing list when there is no one to subscribe to it [11:28] my bad [11:29] I think this will all become a non-issue when MOTU happens, which should be RSN [11:29] RSN, is this something I missed from the last CC meeting? :) [11:29] I think getting that set up is community council territory === mdz coughs in mako's direction === mako was happily off in another window swamped by something else [11:33] if somebody has an idea of what it should look like, we can get a proposal and we can push it forward [11:34] i am currently writing up to *other* proposals for the next CC meeting so i would be thrilled if it could be someoen else :) [11:34] two other proposals :) [11:34] mdz: is there someone that wanted to drive it? [11:34] i'm happy to work with them toward a proposal [11:34] mako: not sure; I missed the last meeting due to being deathly ill [11:35] I think the only must-have is someone to take point [11:35] MOTMOTU so to speak [11:35] someone to coordinate and drive the thing === lamont wonders off to do more family stuff. [11:36] yet another mako task? :) [11:36] sivang: i can't do it [11:36] doing mako+lu's job is *killing me* [11:36] :) [11:36] mako: notice the smile sign...:) [11:36] well, i'm not doing lu's job nearly as well as she was i'm sure :) [11:37] oh, so my wiki bugs go to mako :) [11:37] ogra: absoultely not [11:37] ogra: :) [11:37] *g* [11:37] ogra: enrico is helping out with the wiki stuff.. [11:37] ah, ok [11:37] ogra: enrico has done a great deal of wiki fix works..report it to him [11:38] i already have... [11:38] yesterday [11:38] was just wondering, because bugzilla reports it to lu i seems [11:38] it [11:39] ogra: you can file a bugzilla report on the documentation component, this is assined to enrico [11:40] ok, next time i do .... [11:40] sivang: the person leading the MOTU stuff should not be an existing Ubuntu developer, but someone from the community with the skills and interest to do it [11:41] pants off [11:41] 33.6k mdem connection, 100 of 2775 emails downloaded ;) [11:41] lol [11:41] compress....harder [11:42] jdub: *AWESOME* [11:42] mdz: true, so he'll have all the time for that. he should be probably also a very skilled in the way of packaging..

[11:53] dude, i would *insane* if i had any windows open [11:53] mako: but be aware, it may consume all the oxygen inside.
