lamontsimple, or systemic?12:07
Kamionmeh, why does 'reboot' in d-i suddenly not work?12:08
=== Kamion blames udev because he can
mdzlamont: systemic12:10
Kamionor maybe I should be blaming busybox ... hmm12:11
mdzreboot is hard to screw up12:11
robtaylor_Kamion: umm, i was wondering before.. why deos d-i still use busybox-cvs?12:11
mdzkill -INT 112:11
mdzrobtaylor: yes12:11
Kamionrobtaylor_: what else would make any sense?12:12
robtaylor_Kamion: umm, hasn;t busybox 1.0 been released for some time?12:12
lamontmdz: that's another mark for ia64, hten.12:12
Kamionrobtaylor_: the busybox package in Debian is ancient12:12
Kamionrobtaylor_: in Ubuntu, we need some stuff newer than 1.012:12
Kamionso *shrug* it's not worth the size of the diff it would take to change12:13
robtaylor_Kamion: ah, righty :)12:13
Nafallonoone is working on #5256, right?12:13
Nafallo((except me then ;-) ))12:13
Kamionrobtaylor_: and the diff from busybox-cvs to 1.0 doesn't seem to be too important, AFAIK12:13
mdzlamont: I can fix it trivially if I disable a bunch of stupid shit12:14
mdzthis thing is such crap12:14
robtaylor_Kamion: heh. i was just about to say, actually you're using cvs lower than the 1.00 release..12:14
robtaylor_s/lower/older12:14
mdzif you give it the --best option, it tries zlib compression levels 1-9 and chooses the one with the smallest size12:14
mdzwhich ends up being 912:14
mdzalways12:14
Kamionmdz: actually I suspect I screwed up by typing '/sbin/init' rather than 'exec /sbin/init'. whoops12:14
lamontmdz: go figure...12:14
Kamionmdz: is there any reason that we couldn't lose /sbin/hotplug.real entirely in d-i?12:17
mdzlamont: emailed you a patch which will get you going12:17
mdzKamion: if you switch to udevsend, none12:17
mdzit breaks the stupid shit in favour of fixing the bit we actually use12:18
mdzI'll work up a more correct patch later12:18
Kamiongoodie, though I'll need a small fix to debian-installer/build/Makefile before removing it12:18
lamontmdz: meaning I should upload the patch, or just install it in the chroot?12:18
mdzlamont: that patch should probably not go into the archive12:19
Kamionmdz: you were talking to lamont and not me there?12:19
mdzKamion: correct (regarding the cloop-utils patch)12:19

stubWeird - Can someone try and repeat this?05:46
stubFire up the volume control, and play some music. Now switch back and forth between the OSS and Alsa mixers (File -> Change Device)05:46
stubI'm noticing quite distinct changes in sound05:47
stubLike some of the hidden controls are being randomly reset05:47
jdubstub: they're not synced05:48
jdubstub: so when you change them around, they're flipping back and so on05:48
stubYeah - but if I switch to one, and switch back *it sounds different* to what I started with05:49
stubHmm... seems to be only if I have the 3d controls turned up on the Alsa mixer.05:50
stubmmm... yes... jack up the 3d controls and every time you switch back to the Alsa mixer you get a different mix ;)05:51
jdub:-)05:56
`anthonystub: That's because ALSA mixer was designed by crackheads.05:57
zenroxand oss by potheads05:57
zenroxwitch one works better05:58
zenroxlol05:58
`anthonyzenrox: I'll take the OSS mixer over the 22 separate mixer controls that ALSA gives my onboard sound.05:58
=== triley_ is now known as Safari_Al
`anthony(no, that's not a joke. _22_ controls.)05:59
zenrox`anthony,  ya same here but alsa imho is better casue of the 22 controles it gives me06:00
zenroxoss only has a few06:00
`anthonyzenrox: riiiight. sure. tell me, quick: for correct behaviour of the microphone, what settings should Mic, Mic Select and Capture devices have (settings == mute/no mute, capture/no capture, volume/no volume) ?06:02
`anthonyIf you answered Mic: Muted, Capture, Capture: Not Muted, not Capture, Mix: no volume, no muted -- then you win a cookie.06:03
jamesh`anthony: in part, that is a problem with the user interface06:04
`anthonyjamesh: Well, the UI is just reflecting the underlying settings of the "devices". 06:05
`anthonyBut in any case, there needs to be a higher-level UI - shtoom's growing one when running under ALSA. It will fix the settings up for you (after prompting).06:06
jamesh`anthony: yep, and most of them shouldn't be visible by default (many are only useful to audio geeks)06:06
`anthonyjamesh: more importantly, the standard "audio mixer" program should check for sane settings each time it's run, and prompt "Your audio device settings are all fucked up. Should I fix them? Yes/No"06:07
jamesh`anthony: btw, some sound cards provide even more mixer settings in alsa: http://people.redhat.com/~alexl/files/why-alsa-sucks.png06:07
jamesh`anthony: yep.  ALSA's policy of setting all levels to zero by default is a problem06:08
jameshit is basically a cop-out on picking sensible defaults06:08
`anthonyI've seen people run alsamixer, not realize it's doing anything, and smack on keys and end up with muted master, or capturing on the mono output, or whatever.06:08
jameshsure.06:09
`anthonyhence the shtoom 'fix-the-audio-settings-for-you' mode.06:09
`anthonytrying to debug this stuff remotely is more than a pain.06:09
jameshthe Windows mixer only shows a few standard channels by default06:09
jameshand has a prefs dialog where you can show/hide all the weird ones.06:09
bob2you shtoom-hippy06:10
`anthonythe one for linux should, too. in addition, the 'Capture' flag should be set intelligently, and the basic UI should _not_ let you change it.06:10
pasc`anthony: you broke me06:10
jamesh`anthony: have you looked at the gnome-2.8 volume control app?06:10
pasc`anthony: I bought a mouse exactly like yours when I went through HK06:10
jameshit looks a lot better than the screenshot above ;)06:11
bob2also because everytime I see 'shtoom' I think 'shroom'06:11
`anthonyjamesh: It says "Sorry, no mixer elements and/or devices found", and then exits. You're right, that looks much better than alsamixer ;)06:12

`anthonypasc: ziplinq.com06:12

=== wasabi [~wasabi@c-24-1-67-127.client.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel
`anthonyjamesh: I think it's expecting the OSS-compat devices, but I killed those.06:13
jamesh`anthony: it should do ALSA too.06:14
`anthonyThe only thing that was still using them was #&*($(#$& flash, and I wanted it to stop with the noise-making banner ads.06:14
`anthonyjamesh: looks like it relies on esd or gstreamer.06:14
jameshah.  the volume control does let you turn off channels now06:14
jameshalthough it has everything turned on by default.06:15

mdzsivang: that's more or less implicit in what's already there07:13

fabbionemdz: there are some rumors that they might release a 2.6.10.1 or 2.6.11 pretty soon to include the security fixes....07:16
sivangmdz: I saw those, but maybe a specific link to that notion of sudo for people coming from other os's ? I mean, that's a central aspect of the system's managemtn07:16

Kamionfabbione: oh, you haven't finalised this kernel upload yet have you?10:28
Kamionfabbione: I'd like the rtc module to be available in a udeb10:29
fabbioneKamion: not yet..10:29
fabbionejust tell me what and where and it will be in :-)10:29
Kamionis there any other udeb where it would fit neatly? I couldn't think of one10:30
fabbioneno idea...10:30
fabbionedo we have a misc module udeb?10:30
Kamionif not, rtc-modules would be great; amd64 and i386 should have it, and on sparc you'll want to add rtc-modules to the kernel-image Provides in debian/d-i/sparc/package-list10:30
Kamionhaving it separate would probably work well for dependencies, since it's only the timezone question that needs it10:31
Kamionshall I add it to kernel-wedge?10:31
fabbionehmmm10:32
Kamionyeah, I should, I think10:33
fabbioneonly i386 and amd64 has it has module10:33
Kamionyep10:33
fabbionei think we should just inline it10:33
fabbionehppa/sparc/ia64 is compiled in10:33
fabbioneand ppc too10:33
fabbioneinstead of adding another module...10:33
Kamionhowever you'll need to provide the package description etc. yourself if it's not in kernel-wedge10:33
TreenaksKamion: I have some GPS-detecting python code (for yet another way to determine location/timezone/exact time).... but that'd make the installer depend on python-serial :P10:33
fabbiones/module/udeb10:33
Kamionia64 and powerpc don't have it at all; CONFIG_RTC is not set10:34
fabbioneKamion: they have CONFIG_GEN_RTC10:34
Kamionhm, ok10:35
Kamionso you mean you think it should just be compiled into all kernels?10:35
fabbionei think so yes10:35
fabbionethat would save us another udeb10:35
Kamionit's 21K10:35
Kamionudebs are relatively cheap, but it's up to you :)10:36
=== Kamion <- happy either way
fabbioneKamion: ok.. let's make it a udeb10:36
fabbionei would suggest to create a misc-modules10:36
fabbionea bit more generic to fit all these "strange" categories10:37
Kamionseems a bit misleading since it isn't drivers/misc/10:37
fabbionehmmm ok10:37
fabbionejust tell me what to add to debian/d-i/10:37
fabbioneand i will do10:37
Kamionrtc-modules is more useful to me that misc-modules, because with the latter I have to depend on something weird and generic rather than on something specific that describes exactly what I want10:37
Kamionhm, is genrtc.ko useful on systems that have rtc.ko?10:38
Kamions/that misc-modules/than misc-modules/10:38
Kamionconfig GEN_RTC10:39
Kamion        tristate "Generic /dev/rtc emulation"10:39
Kamion        depends on RTC!=y && !IA64 && !ARM10:39
fabbionegenrtc conflitcs with rtc10:39
fabbioneis either one or the other10:39
fabbioneaccording to the arch10:39

Kamionfabbione: ok, build-dep on kernel-wedge (>= 1.25.1ubuntu3), 'echo common/rtc-modules > debian/d-i/i386/modules/i386/rtc-modules.lnk; echo common/rtc-modules > debian/d-i/amd64/modules/amd64/rtc-modules.lnk', and add ", rtc-modules" to the end of the two Provides_* lines in debian/d-i/sparc/package-list, please?10:43
=== fabbione does
Kamionhm, should probably do the Provides in ia64 and powerpc too, but only if you can be bothered :)10:45
fabbioneof course i can10:45
Kamionia64 is easy, for powerpc you'll need to add a Package: kernel-image block to the top10:45
Kamiondependency correctness there isn't vital, it'll just suppress a few whines in /var/log/debian-installer/syslog10:46
fabbioneProvides_sparc64: ext2-modules rtc-modules10:46
fabbionesomething like this...10:46

fabbioneKamion: ok10:49
Kamionbesides I have the feeling that daniels wants to kill me10:49

fabbionethe latter is irrelevant imho :-)10:50
danielsi just, er, dropped something very heavy on my toe10:50
daniels(or heard that the second of my dogs will get put down after having one put down three months ago)10:50
danielss/one/the first/10:50
danielsbut, in all seriousness, gpm is probably a very bad idea10:50
fabbioneKamion: we might have to update kernel-wedge later on for hppa support.. but don't bother now10:51
fabbioneit has probably one extra rtc-module10:52
Kamiondaniels: any other suggestions for mouse support on fb?10:52
Kamionfabbione: hm, ok10:52
fabbioneKamion: -4 has preliminary hppa support, but i need the new configs from lamony10:52
fabbionelamont10:52
danielsKamion: why?10:52
fabbionei really don't know what to answer to some of the stuff over there10:53
Kamiondaniels: sabdfl suggested the ability to point-and-click at buttons in the newt frontend10:53
Kamiondaniels: which newt does support10:53
danielsKamion: in d-i?10:53
Kamionyeah10:53
Kamionit's a graphical-installer stopgap :)10:53
=== tuo2 [~foo@adsl-36-114.swiftdsl.com.au] has joined #ubuntu-devel
KamionI like the idea if it can be pretty10:53
danielsi honestly don't think we gain anything from the ability to click on buttons, but not the ability to do the proper layout we've been discussing10:54
Kamionbecause the "tab to get to buttons, in more or less random order" thing does suck10:54
fabbioneKamion: mind to give me the contents of rtc-modules?10:54
danielsi suppose it's not so bad, as long as it never, ever, ever propagates to the installed system10:54
fabbioneotherwise i will need to wait up to 2 hours before i can testbuild10:54
Kamion-drivers/char/genrtc.o10:54
Kamion-drivers/char/rtc.o10:54
fabbionedanke10:54
Kamiondaniels: it won't; there's a worry of how to autodetect the mouse type though10:55
Kamionof course we have to solve that for the graphical installer anyway10:55
=== fabbione updates ndiswrapper to 1.0rc2
KamionI have a feeling that gpm's framebuffer support is, um, lacking; it just scribbles black squares over the screen when you move the mouse around10:56
danielsKamion: hm10:57
Kamionat least on powerpc10:58
pittiKamion: this worked fine on kernel 2.6.910:59
pittiKamion: it's broken for me on 2.6.10 too10:59
pittiKamion: so I don't think that this is a gpm problem10:59
KamionI'm running 2.6.9 here11:00
pittihmm, odd11:00
pittiworked fine for me on 2.6.911:00
Kamionyou don't get a pretty mouse pointer anyway though, you just get a block11:01
Kamionso it may not be a usability win anyway11:02
pittibut at least the block worked as it should and did not delete the contents of my screen...11:02
Kamionpowerpc too, or something else?11:03
pittiyes, ppc I think11:04
=== pitti installs gpm on his i386
fabbioneyou are all dreaming11:05
fabbionethe kernel is NOT broken11:05
fabbioneit's your crappy hardware11:05
fabbioneKamion: since you are at it11:05
pittiKamion: works fine on i386 on standard Ubuntu kernel (2.6.10) and VESA driver11:05
pittiKamion: maybe this is a problem with the radeon driver then?11:05
fabbionei need you to test the emu10k1 build on ppc11:05

pittiit's very fast and nice to work on :-)11:06
fabbionepitti: ok.. short version of the story11:06
fabbionedavis doesn't build it11:06
fabbionei have no root access on the chroot11:06
fabbioneperhaps it builds with another gcc11:06
pittifabbione: you need root to build it?11:07
fabbioneor something that i have no way to test on davis11:07
pittifabbione: I can try it here if you want11:07
fabbionei need root to install another gcc11:07
pittiah11:07
fabbionelike 3.4?11:07
fabbionethe error is pretty much a weird gcc message11:07
fabbionethat happens only on pcc11:07
pittifabbione: give me the package, I compile it with gcc-3.4 and send you the log11:08
pittifabbione: but uh, it's not a complete kernel image?11:08
pittifabbione: this lasts about 5 hours on my iBook :-)11:08
fabbionepitti: just grab 2.6.0 from hoary, change the EMU10K in debian/config/powerpc to build as module11:08
fabbioneand build...11:08
fabbioneit's enough on one of them11:08
fabbionei don't need you to build the world11:08

pittiokay, I'll do that11:09
fabbionebut i need you to figure out why it fails11:09
fabbioneyes 2.6.1011:09
pittidoes the linux Makefile respect CC=gcc-3.4?11:09
fabbionepitti: yes afaik11:09
fabbioneotherwise it's one line change in the makefile11:09
crimsunyes, set HOSTCC and CC11:09

=== pitti gives his iBook something to bite on :-)
=== Kamion sees pitti paying more attention to IRC than him and therefore getting work ... ;)

Kamionpitti: could be, not entirely sure I can follow where selection.c goes11:10
pitti?11:11
pittiKamion: what about selection.c?11:11
dokofabbione: hint ... unpack cpp-3.4 and gcc-3.4 into your home directory, add the <unpack dir>/usr/bin to your path, and compile.11:13
Kamionit's what TIOCLINUX(TIOCL_SETSEL) calls, which is basically what gpm does to set the mouse pointer position11:13
fabbionedoko: no way i am going to do stuff like that .. KTHXBYW11:13

fabbionedoko: i don't like these kind of things when it goes to get stuff done properly11:14

fabbionepitti: is there anything i need to push in hoary today?11:16
dokofabbione: ok, just an intermediate solutions until our admins wake up ...11:16
fabbionedoko: point is that we are not supposed to build with gcc3.411:18
fabbioneso if this is something special it needs to be discussed11:18
fabbionespecially because we are going to build an entire kernel set on gcc3.411:18
fabbionethat might introduce a bunch of regressions11:18
cartmanare there any plans to do a gcc 3.3->3.4 migration in the future?11:18
fabbionesince kernel tends to be affected by different gcc11:19
Treenakscartman: well, when it's released etc, probably11:19
cartmanTreenaks: released what?11:19
danielspitti: christ11:19

pittimvo_: right now installation from daily hoary seems to be utterly broken02:49

Kamionmvo_: kinda waiting for gpgv-udeb first to make sure the name doesn't change02:50
mvo_all right02:50
Kamionmvo_: that won't make any difference to base-config, though; what I need for *that* is to have the keyring automatically registered with apt-key02:51
Kamionmvo_: at the moment apt's postinst registers a key in the apt package rather than from ubuntu-keyring02:51
mvo_Kamion: so what you need is apt-key update in postinst of ubuntu-keyring? 02:51

seb128lamont_r: out of you nobody use it atm so feel free to send a new patch to change the behaviour if you want :)04:33
thomfocus_follows_lamont?04:33
lamont_rseb128: it's 'strict pointer mode' that is, new windows never take focus, although they may be mapped on top.  (issue is, if the new window maps on top and lands on the mouse, it still doesn't get focus - not sure which way I'd rather that went, and can argue both sides of that... must ponder.)04:33
lamont_rthom: upgrade metacity, and then use gconf-editor to change focus to 'strict'....04:34
seb128the key to change is in the changelog04:34
lamont_rseb128: the argument for why I want it (passwords, conversations, etc) kinda leads directly to the current behavior of the mode.  so I may just leave it that way...04:35
seb128the new metacity focus prevention should avoid to lost focus while typing a password or so04:36
seb128it works pretty fine here04:36
lamont_rthom: it behaves exactly like 'mouse', except that newly mapped windows _NEVER_ take focus.  ever.04:36
lamont_rseb128: right - that's only one corner case of the thing...04:36
lamont_rthe other is popping up new windows, and wanting to do several before going to the new ones.04:36
seb128the focus in metacity now is: don't give the focus unless something ask for it04:37
lamont_rit's really a 'don't make retrain the muscle memory' thing...04:37
seb128it: you ask when you click on "save" icon in an app04:37
seb128that's stupid to not give the focus to the file selection which ask for the filename04:37
lamont_ror there's a shell prompt in an xterm/gnome-terminal04:37
lamont_rseb128: like I said - muscle memory.04:38
lamont_rthe other side of the argument to calling it 'strict' would be that the focus would always be on the window where the mouse is sitting. current behavior violates that argument when the new window lands on the mouse...04:38
seb128http://mail.gnome.org/archives/desktop-devel-list/2004-December/msg00306.html04:43
lamont_rseb128: does that give you enough for the schema description, or do you want me to actually craft the entry?04:43
seb128the details of the current metacity behaviour04:43
seb128lamont_r: that's enough informations, but the "get the focus if pop under the mouse cursor" seems to be a bug for me :)04:44
lamont_rnice. note that (a) I sometimes interact with windows using only my eyes, and (b) there is still a brief window between the prompt in a window and when I start typing that could result in keystrokes going to the wrong window.  admittedly, it's a short window, but...04:45
lamont_rand sadly, neither of those can really be solved with the information available to the system./04:45
gsuvegthom: now works the apps, but in live i cant test now04:45
seb128yep04:45
seb128but opening a fileselector for example is really fast04:46
seb128you should be patient enough to wait for the dialog :)04:46
lamont_rseb128: so you think that my mode should give focus to the new window that maps on top of the cursor?04:46
seb128no04:46
lamont_rgood - because it doesn't right now.04:46
seb128no if you don't move the mouse at least04:46
lamont_rright now, mouse must enter the new window (which could mean 'leaving' it first...)04:47
seb128no04:47
lamont_r??04:48
seb128ie: I open gedit, type something in it, do alt-F2 with the cursor in the middle of the screen04:48
thomgsuveg: ..04:48
seb128the dialog takes the focus from gedit04:48
gsuvegthom: ?04:50
lamont_rseb128: with the current patch, mode==strict will never give the dialog focus until the mouse moves.04:52
seb128lamont_r: I've just tried again here before saying so on IRC04:52
seb128or the mouse move alone :)04:52
lamont_rfor me - I have to either move the mouse out of the dialog box and back in, or click to take focus.04:53
seb128I don't touch the mouse04:53
thomgsuveg: i have no idea whether you're asking something, telling me something, or what04:53
seb128just open gedit in the middle of the screen, place the mouse cursor in the place where the alt-F2 dialog pop up04:53

lamont_rok.  with cdbs (never used it), how do I get to the state where patch foo is not applied yet, but everything before it is?05:00
azeemlamont_r: man patch :P05:00
Mithrandirseb: blah, failed due to libebook-dev05:00
azeemis there a better way? (I'm seriously interested)05:01
lamont_razeem: heh05:01
lamont_razeem: with dpatch, I just say 'dpatch-edit-patch <patchname>' and get to that state05:01
azeemyeah05:01
lamont_rwell, actually, <patchname> is applied, etc.05:01
azeemlamont_r: note that cdbs is patch-agnostic (you can use it with dpatch and quilt), it's just the simple-patchsys it also provides which sucks05:01
azeemsimple-patchsys is not really suited for editing patches around and stuff I think (but I haven't poked at the code)05:02
azeemask Jeff once he's around to fix cdbs :P05:02
Mithrandirseb128: I'm handling it05:02
seb128ok05:04
seb128azeem,lamont_r: simple-patchsys just apply all the diff files from debian/patches05:06
seb128that's nice when you get patch or diff from the CVS, you just have to drop them in debian/patches/05:07
azeemit adds stamp-files though05:07
seb128yes05:07
seb128but that's not optimal when you want to edit a patch05:07
azeemso could you do 'debian/rules debian/stamp-patch-foo'?05:07

pitticarlos: this avoids time zone and wrong clock troubles when building the package07:46
pitticarlos: like http://rosetta.ubuntu.com/timestamp07:46

pittirjek: this works fine for me here07:53
rjekWhat aspect of the issue?07:53
pittirjek: I insert an audio CD, it automatically starts playing, then I type "eject" and it comes out again07:53
carlosthat way you will not get some translations from that day but will work always the same way and you don't need the time timestamp just the date07:53
rjekpitti: I close the CD player application when it pops up.07:54
rjekPressing the hardware eject button then does nothing.07:54
=== cartman [foobar@cartman.developer.konversation] has joined #ubuntu-devel
rjekOnly way I can get the tray to open again is "sudo eject /cdrom"07:54
rjekIt's clearly locking the tray, I'm just interested in *why* it's locking the tray.07:54
pitticarlos: it basically boils down to date +%Y%m%d > timestamp07:55
rjekI can see it's advantagous to lock the tray when you've mounted a file system on it.07:55
pittirjek: audio CDs are not mounted07:55
rjekI know this.07:55
rjekWhich is why I'm complaining about it locking the tray. :)07:55
carlospitti: right07:56
pittirjek: after I stop the CD player, the tray gets unlocked again for me07:56
rjek"stop" ?07:57
rjekDo you mean pressing the stop button on the cd player application, or quiting the CD player?07:57
rjekWhy is it getting locked in any case anyway?07:57
pittirjek: can you please write a detailled explanation in a bug report and include /proc/sys/dev/cdrom/info?07:57
pittirjek: that's a good question; proably the CD player should be adapted not to do this07:58
rjekpitti: If that involves touching Bugzilla, then no :)  Ubuntu's Bugzilla appears to hate me.07:58
pittirjek: hmm, then please write it to ubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com07:59
rjekIt doesn't actually appear to want to let me sign up for an account with it, for example.07:59
pittirjek: why bz hates you? it works fine for anybody else07:59
elmorjek: if you used your pepperfish mail, that's because of your fascist policies; it should work now, we have stuff like reverse DNS07:59
rjekpitti: Perhaps for the same reason that this weekend I found 5 bugs in my new DVD player's firmware that are baffling the author of its firmware? :)07:59
elmoif it's not worked for you recently, I'd like to try and find out why...08:00
rjekelmo: I tried with and without.08:00
rjekAFAIK, ppf's mail is quite happy to accept mail from places without rDNS.08:00
rjekWe don't run SAUCE. :)08:00
elmorjek: kinni was whining at me about not having reverse, he said he had to special case our mail server, but maybe I'm misremembering08:01

rjekelmo: Perhaps.08:01
rjekI routinely deal with ppf customers who don't have rDNS, though.08:01

lamont_rMithrandir: ok09:12
Mithrandirlamont_r: I uploaded it some hours ago and no trace of the build logs09:13
lamont_rMithrandir: anything to do with libebook-dev?09:14
Mithrandirlamont_r: that was what I fixed in the upload, yes09:15
lamont_ranytime you fix a missing build-dep by removing it, I have to kick the buildd's...09:15
lamont_rso once you see the source in the archive, you can poke me...09:15
fabbionehmmm09:16
Mithrandirah, ok.  I didn't remove it, I just changed it, though.09:16
Mithrandirstuff get auto-depwaited?09:16
fabbionelamont_r: it looks like that only ia64 is screwed09:16
lamont_rkicked09:16
lamont_rfabbione: yeah - all 3 ia64 machines, only.09:17
lamont_rMithrandir: stuff gets auto-depwaited, and clearing the depwait is manual09:17
Mithrandirlamont_r: ok, noted.  Thanks.09:17
lamont_rshould save a little frustration the next time around.09:18
fabbionelamont_r: ok :-)09:19
lamont_rfabbione: that was what I meant earlier by 'all' - sorry about the miscommunication09:20

fabbioneit's up to this morning cvs09:23
Mithrandirlamont_r: that's not bad at all.09:23

dokothe second time it did build sucessfully09:31
thomyeah, debian has the exact same error, so i think it's a case of the missing build deps09:31

lamont_rdoko: libgcc1_3.4.3-7ubuntu1 is installed09:33
lamont_rdoko: so I think the toolchain is completely current.  I'd love to be shown otherwise, because that makes the fix trivial.09:34
dokooops, wrong chroot. you are right. preparing the final libunwind upload.09:35
lamont_rdoko: thanks.  pls tell me when to give everything back....09:36
lamont_ror even when the upload happens and I'll babysit it.09:36
Mithrandirdoko: why did you upload a mailman to hoary with tightened build-deps?09:47
elmodoko: dude, can you fix python-nevow? it's been promoted from universe and needs transitioned09:48
elmocan file a bug if you want09:48
dokoMithrandir: don't remember. maybe the python-defaults package was delayed? don't know anymore.09:54
dokoelmo: ok, please file a report. there are more packages...09:54
Mithrandirdoko: ok; it doesn't need any, that's just why09:54
elmodoko: not in main, I hope?09:54
dokoelmo: syncs from Debian only. and I have to look at abiword.09:55
dokoelmo: please could you sync drdsl and graphviz from Debian?09:55
dokolamont_r: can you compile _anything_ on ia64 with the new libgcc1?09:56
lamont_rnope09:56
elmodoko: both would need an exception from the UpstreamVersionFreeze - please mail mdz/jdub, cc me, to get their approval09:56
lamont_rso do I just need to rollback libgcc1 on something to the prior rev to get libunwind to build?09:57
dokoelmo: same with pike7.6. the last Debian upload was in November. just saw it when fixing swig09:57
dokolamont_r: I've put the libgcc1 from my testbuild on chinstrap. could you verify, if this works for you?09:59
lamont_rdoko: in place of what's currently in the chroot, in order to build libunwind?09:59

seb128yeah, it should10:04

elmoerr locales.gen10:04
dokoelmo: thanks10:04
seb128locales.gen was wrong yes10:04
seb128but removing it doesn't help according to him10:04
seb128is the value stored in debconf or something ?10:05
mjtremoving what?  A file, or the line?10:05
mjtall debconf answers (or almost, anyway) are stored in debconf db10:06
seb128/etc/locales.gen10:06
seb128the fr line in it10:06
seb128locales is still broken (apt-get -f install)10:06

seb128already tried10:09
seb128<LiMpKiN> /usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure: locales is broken or not fully installed10:09
seb128the state is "iF"10:09
mjtthe script is at /var/lib/dpkg/info/locales.postinst10:10
seb128I know that :)10:10
mjtdunno what's wrong, but as the last resort it's possible to add "|| :" at the end of locale-gen line10:10
mjtthe script -- seems to be -- tries to restore values in locale.gen10:11
seb128I think so :/10:11
mjt(in which case i think it is wrong, btw)10:12

elmoyou don't want  to update _it's_ postinst in a hurry :P10:15
lamont_relmo: I meant _my_ postinsts... :-)10:15
mjtsed exits with 0 even if it didn't do anything.  at least here10:16
lamont_rand yeah, it's a function of when was -i introduced, and was that effectively the dawn of time (and then you can change it..)10:16
lamont_rmjt: my bad10:16
mjti think that "|| true" thing comes from days when grep was used at this place10:17
mjtstill, what's a "common consensus" about debconf variables and actual configuration files?  Which takes precedence?10:17
Mithrandirmjt: config files.10:17
Mithrandirmjt: config files seed debconf which is then used for building the config files10:18
Mithrandirat least, that's the way I do it.10:18
mjtwell ok... that's how i do it too ;)10:18
lamont_rditto10:19
Mithrandiranything else is very much broken10:19
lamont_rwith the added caveat that changing the configfile outside of things, and then running debconf and changing something else, needs to not overwrite the hand edits...10:20
lamont_rthat bit gets a little more ugly10:20
=== lamont_r has 75% of a hoary-live-i386.iso...
mjti asked to confirm.. a few months ago i filed a grave bugreport about mdadm as after i changed config in /etc and upgraded mdadm, my machine becomes unbootable10:21

amu... on a pb4 10:23
dokolamont_r: ld.so doesn't seem happy with libunwind changing between /lib and /usr/lib. I put the new libunwind on chinstrap. at least this makes things working again10:24
amulamont_r: i'll continue now with i386 ... 10:25
lamont_rdoko: will there be a new upload of libunwind that makes thigns happy?10:26
dokoyes, if that works for you. this is my test build of the new upload.10:26
lamont_rdoko: ah, ok. so test your .debs by building the source, eh?10:27
lamont_rdoko: much happier.  if you upload, I'll help the binaries through, and we can make ia64 happy again10:29
dokolamont_r: ehh, they do build ...10:30

dokoelmo: any chance to setup a chroot on davis for powerpc64 work?10:31
dokolamont_r: signed binaries on chinstrap:libunwind/10:34
lamont_rdoko: yeah, I know10:34
lamont_rbut policy says that the binaries have to be built in our buildd-chroots10:34
lamont_rbut if you upload the source, then I can help the binaries along, since I have to diddle the chroot a bit to get it to work...10:35
amulamont_r: i386 has the same problem 10:37

lamont_rdoko: thanks10:53
dokomdz: regarding the size of the l-r-m packages, should we build separate packages? these modules seem to be of interest for a relative local audience.10:55
Mithrandirmdz: it was discussed on the Hoary status meeting about a week ago, but no, it doesn't really fit apart from that. :/10:56
mdzdoko: cf. the discussion on ubuntu-devel about why we have only one l-r-m10:56
mdzdoko: it's better to only need to rebuild one package when updating the kernel10:56
mdzamu: which image has this cloop problem?10:57
dokomdz: sure, but that's not an argument to put them in a separate _binary_ package.10:57

mvo_I'm always curious for crazy stuff :)11:19
Mithrandirmvo_: have you looked at the UTFEightMigrationTool thingy?11:19
Mithrandirthat's something which should really be run by all users after the system is hoarified.11:19
mvo_yes 11:20
Mithrandirand U8MT might not be the only tool which would want that, so if packages could ask, through upgrade-notifier or something to have a command run when the user asks for it, that'd be nice.11:20
mvo_Mithrandir: so what we need is some kind of "post-dist-upgrade-hook"?11:21
Mithrandirmvo_: post-dist-upgrade-per-user-hook, yes.11:21
Mithrandirand it should not just be some wizard which pops up when the user first logs in, it should probably be a notification icon of some sort.11:22
