Kamionjdub: oh god12:03
elmook, processed12:03
Kamionwe are going to need to publish a script to tell people how badly broken their systems are :P12:03
thullyis the live CD looking better? specifically, is ipw2200 working properly now?12:03
jdubKamion: i'm considering writing a mail about it, both to them and to ubuntu-users12:03
mdzthully: that's the fix I speak of12:03
Kamionthully: on its way ...12:04
ajmitchhow hard will it be for those people to upgrade to hoary?12:04
Kamionajmitch: many of the versions in those repositories are greater than those in hoary, so apt will not upgrade them automatically12:04
ajmitchKamion: that's what I was worried about..12:04
ajmitchcausing much pain & anguish12:04
KamionI'm not sure it's possible to tell, but they might have pretty much arbitrary breakage12:04
thullywhen will the live CD be ready?  12:04
mdzready for what?12:05
thullythe one w/the hotplug fix12:05
mdzit'll be ready for a round of testing in ~15 minutes or so12:05
mdzI'm just waiting for casper 0.22 to appear on mirnyy12:05
azeemmaybe you can instruct them to adjust apt preferences, and pin Ubuntu's warty above all else and apt-get dist-downgrade'12:05
KamionI think more like ~45 minutes12:05

Kamionelmo's processing probably didn't beat cron.daily12:05
mdz(build log dated 2236, anyway)12:05
Kamionyes, irrelevant 'cos it's byhand12:06
mdzI meant the casper build log12:06
Kamionoh12:06
mdzI would have expected it to appear at :03 just now12:06

Kamionthat would be good, thanks12:07
Kamion:-)12:07

danielsmjg59: nope12:17
danielsmjg59: not much good without mesa-solo, anyway12:17
danielssince you need to have an x server to run it on top of12:17
mjg59Yeah, but presumably faster for composite development than trying to do it on i855?12:18
danielsprobably, yeah12:18
mjg59How's mesa-solo coming along?12:18
danielsreally well, actually12:18
mjg59Cool12:18
danielsand soon we'll be able to build mesa and x separately, by the looks12:18
bob2mesa-solo = X-less mesa?12:18
mjg59So then we start concentrating on 3D support?12:18
mjg59daniels: Oh, yeah, the crack all works now12:19
danielsmjg59: sweet12:19
danielsbob2: basically, yeah12:19
danielsmjg59: well, then our build system gets less crap, and we're all using a modular X \o/12:19

mdzlamont: diverting conffiles, eh?12:55
elmoiconv says "conversion from iso-8895-1 not supported"12:55
lamontmdz: any other locales?  Pre-generate some locales (en_{US,GB,ZA}.UTF-8)12:55
mdzogra: according to daniels, yes12:55
lamontmdz: /etc/init.d/dbus-1 would be a conffile...12:55
Mithrandirelmo: it's spelled 885912:55
mdzI'll be testing it shortly12:55
danielsogra: which framebuffer thingy?  the livecd stuff?  (if so, should be)12:55
mdzlamont: let's start with those12:55
danielsit should definitely work on i38612:55
mdzlamont: how big are they?12:55
Mithrandirnot 95. :P12:55
ogradaniels: amd64 :)12:55
danielsogra: (and amd64)12:55
lamontmdz: the livecd needs some games, you know... :--)12:56
ogradaniels: and i have a nice bug for you, i'll file on the weekend if i have time to switch to nv to track it12:56
mdzlamont: are you ready to implement the live seed?12:56
danielsogra: awesome12:56
elmoMithrandir: fair point, well made12:56
danielsmdz: comment on #5495?12:57
MithrandirISO8895 -- Shaped insulating refractory products -- Determination of cold crushing strength.  I kinda understand iconv won't convert that. ;)12:57
Kamionit would be cool if it did12:57
lamontmdz: we could do that.12:58
lamontjust need an archive to check it out of, and we're golden12:58
ograelmo: btw, if its text you can open it in gedit, it offers to select the locale on save12:58
danielsKamion: no higher than 'enhancement', ok?12:58
Kamiondaniels: mm?12:58
danielsyou get to hit scott really hard for that one12:58
danielser, ww12:58
danielsKamion: the bug on iconv :)12:59
Kamionoh :)12:59
lamontmdz: the nice part is that the live seed just feeds straight into apt-get... no dependency deals or anything..12:59
lamontfor that matter -it should just go into ubuntu-meta as ubuntu-livecd, which depends: ubuntu-desktop01:00
mdzlamont: let's have a round of ubuntu-devel about the live seed and what should go in it01:00
mdzthe last time, I remember there was some dissent01:00
mdz(live should be the same as a desktop install, etc.)01:00

KamionI think I need to tweak germinate a bit to make the live seed really work properly, too01:01
Kamionhm, or indeed work at all01:01
lamontKamion: it wouldn't need to be germinated01:01
Kamion    for seedname in ("base", "desktop", "ship", "installer", "supported"):01:01
Kamionit should be, IMO01:01
jdubmdz: only silly pant stealers dissented with liveseed01:01
lamontKamion: ok.01:02
KamionI don't think there should be such a thing as a seed that doesn't get fed to germinate01:02
Kamionbecause if nothing else you want to make sure the stuff stays in main01:02
lamonthrm... yeah - liveseed might be broader than supported, eh?01:02
lamontKamion: games in main??? the heresy01:02
Kamionlive < supported, definitely01:02
Kamionbut there might be stuff in the text of the live seed not mentioned in the text of the supported seed01:02
lamontright01:03
KamionI think we want base < desktop < ship < supported; base < desktop < live < supported; casper < (?) installer < supported01:03
mdzit ought to be germinated, so we get a consistent set of stuff on the CD01:03
lamontmdz: should be done staring at the changes and pushing a round of updates to all the buildds within the hour.  If you want a dbus-1 happy livecd before that, holler now and I'll go fix it in place and run it.01:03
Kamionmaybe just casper < supported and installer < supportd01:03
Kamioned01:03
danielsmdz: bz email address changed (finally)01:04
jdublamont: livecd was dbus-1 unhappy?01:05
lamontjdub: when you divert /etc/init.d/dbus-1 and then do a non-interactive install, you get /etc/init.d/dbus-1.dpkg-new, which is just not what you want later.01:07
mdzdaniels: thanks01:07
mdzlamont: I'm about 1/4 of the way through downloading a full set01:08
jdublamont: oh. why does it need to be diverted?01:08
mdzjdub: it had a bug01:08
mdz(past tense)01:08
mdzKamion: is there an easy way to point cron.daily-live at an old version of the cloop images01:09
jduboh01:09
mdzassuming lamont keeps them around?01:09
lamontjdub: and the bug was fixed01:09
lamontmdz: never been deleted :-)01:09
lamontalthough the location did change01:09
mdzthat way, lamont can go ahead and build new images to test the new stuff01:09
mdzbut if there is a casper problem, I can build new live CDs without downloading another 1.5 gigs01:09
lamontmdz: the other option is that if you need to build a new one, you can holler and I'll move the 'current' links back01:11
mdzof course, that may become obsolete soon with the rsyncable stuff01:11
mdzwhich would ROCK01:11
Kamionmdz: yes, poke /srv/cdimage.no-name-yet.com/debian-cd/tools/add_live_filesystem01:11

thullyThe hotplug issue is fixed01:34
lifelessdaniels: so how can an X client force the server to leak. Surely thats bad ?01:35
danielslifeless: no, not at all01:35
thullyThis actually should fix another issue I had - in the normal installer, my wi-fi wasn't available as a network interface to configure01:35
danielslifeless: you ask X to allocate a pixmap for you, then you never free it01:35
danielslifeless: the whole server/client thing means that pixmaps, et al, need to be stored server-side as well01:35
mdzhda: dma_intr: error=0x01 { AddrMarkNotFound }, LBAsect=135032251, sector=13503207201:35
mdzthat does not look good at all01:35
lifelessdaniels: but when the client dies, surely you can walk back to the clients resources and free them.01:35
danielslifeless: not as such, because you can share them aiui01:36
danielslifeless: as they're just identified by an integer01:36
haggaiazeem: I'm running from ~build and there is a link to the chroot in there, and it finds it too01:36
lifelessmmm, you could still know that the client that allocated it has gone, and I presume there are protocol to enable sharing (else it would be a security hole), so you can count as they get shared.01:36
danielslifeless: how would it be a security hole?01:37
danielslifeless: if you have access to the display, you own it01:37
danielslifeless: (just hide all the other windows and pop up one of your own that looks like Firefox doing internet banking)01:37
daniels(or, more subtly, just grab all input)01:37
lifelessclient A has pixmap with the map for foo on it, client B is rogue and copies that pixmap.01:37
danielsif client B is rogue, you have already lost in so many ways it's irrelevant01:38
lifelessdaniels: eek01:38
danielsclient B just pops up a window that's a direct screen-scrape of client A's01:38
danielsor looks like a password dialog or something01:38
danielsagain: if an untrusted client has access, you have already lost01:39
haggaiazeem: hmm, not sure what it was that I changed but it's giving me a proper error now01:40
mdzthully: thanks for testing01:40
danielsthere was a pretty half-arsed XSECURITY extension to try and control inter-client exchanges, but it was badly thought out, badly implemented, and even sun has long considered it a very poor idea01:40
danielsthe selinux guys are doing interesting things on that front, though01:40
mdzthully: that was fast; I thought you were on a modem :-)01:40
robtaylor_daniels: so if you have  client that allocates pixmaps (i.e. everything nowadays, no?) and it crashes regularly, that causes an irrecoverable memleak in the server?01:40
azeemhaggai: heh, can you make something out of it?01:40
danielsrobtaylor_: quite possibly01:41
thullymdz - I downloaded it at another PC (not at home) where there's high speed net01:41
danielsrobtaylor_: iirc gtk's segfault handler will clean up quite well, for one01:41
thullyI got the hoary install iso too01:41
thullywill test that next01:41
lifelessso, evolution borks regularly for me... ah gtk ok.01:41
robtaylor_daniels: ah thats good to know ;001:41
haggaiazeem: yeah, it's a build-dep not in main01:41
thullymdz: This should take care of an issue with the installer not finding my wi-fi (in install mode) as well...01:42
robtaylor_daniels: surely theres a way to refcoun them, as long as they're not MIT-SHM?01:42
robtaylor_hell you can even refcount then, but that gets icky01:42
mdzthully: the install iso will not have the wireless firmware fix yet01:42
haggaiazeem: I wonder if apt-proxy and authenticated apt have problems; I switched sources.list01:42
danielsrobtaylor_: probably, but you could also just pass the reference over to someone else out-of-band and they could use it later :)01:42
mdzthe next daily build will01:42
mdzwe did a new live CD build manually01:42
haggaimdz: is there a config file option to disable the authentication stuff, or is it only a command line switch?01:43
mdzhaggai: both01:43
haggaimdz: apt, I mean01:43
robtaylor_daniels: gosh, didnt think that was possible... urrgle01:43
haggaimdz: ah, an undocumented one then :)01:43
mdzhaggai: man apt-get01:43
azeemhaggai: bob2 had problems with authenticated apt and sbuild as well01:43
thullyI have to go now... I'll check out install iso later01:44
mdzhaggai: by design, all apt command-line flags have a corresponding configuration item01:44
azeemhaggai: which version of sbuild are you using?01:44
bob2very weird ones01:44
haggaimdz: ah, I see, the config option is with the command switch01:44
haggaiazeem: from unstable01:44
danielsrobtaylor_: aiui, this is the case, but client-side x library stuff isn't my forte01:44
haggaiazeem: I patched in hoary as a distro01:44

robtaylor_daniels: is it anyones? ;)01:44
robtaylor_(rhetorical..)01:44
danielsrobtaylor_: heh ... maybe owen taylor's01:45
azeemhaggai: if you tell me how to disable authenticated apt, I'll add that to the options sbuild passes to apt01:45
robtaylor_daniels: theres some scary s**t in there, i remeber that much =)01:45
haggaiazeem: --allow-unauthenticated01:46
haggaiazeem: I don't know if it's necessary, though, assuming it all works01:46
azeemI guess that will break on apt from unstable01:46
haggaiazeem: I think it might just be a problem with my local setup and apt-proxy.  Still, you do have to manually install gnupg in the sbuild chroot before it works01:47
haggaiazeem: true01:47
bob2azeem: yah, is there a need for it to limit the valid distros?01:47
danielsrobtaylor_: heh, yah01:47

azeemlamont: what exactly do you mean, seperating the distros in to their own directories?01:57
lamontbuild-$dist/chroot-$dist is the build directory01:58
lamontlets me build different $dists in the same buildd, with different chroots01:58

lamont/home/buildd/ccache is bind mounted as /home/buildd/.ccache in each of the chroots on the machine02:11
lamontthen we shim gcc into 'ccache gcc' everywhere02:11
haggaihow do you do that?  changing the default path to include the trampolines?02:12
haggailamont: in /usr/lib/ccache?02:13

thullyone thing i've noticed, though, is that getting through the network step when there is no wi-fi near and you're not plugged into a LAn network is a pain03:33
thullythat would be the network step of debian-installer, both on the live cd and install cd03:33

jdubmjg59: would be good to pimp the livecd for power management, particularly at preview03:34
thullyI put my laptop to sleep from the live CD, and when it woke up I couldn't execute any programs03:34
thullyI did do a simple echo 3 > /proc/acpi/sleep, though - however this has worked for me from HD installs03:35
thullyI just got an I/O error for each thing I tried to run03:36
mdzdid the hard drive spin back up?03:36
thullyI was booted from live CD03:36
thullyI never accessed the HD03:36
thullyBTW - I have no system tray applets on the current live cd build (no volume, battery, etc) - is this a known issue?03:37
mdzit might be related to a known bug, I'm not sure03:38
thullyBTW - why was the default for autohinter switched from on to off?  I liked autohinter...03:39
jdubmdz: actually, that's an interesting problem03:39
jdubmdz: panel chooses default configuration at install time based on laptop-detect03:39
jdub(because it's not possible to do it at run time atm)03:40
jdubmdz: and fontconfig chooses subpixel based on laptop-detect03:40
thullyyes - I know subpixel is chosen based on laptop-detect - however, I wonder why autohinter isn't used also (on both laptop/desktop)  This seemed to make the fonts look much better (and was the default on hoary until recently)03:42
bob2mjg59: are dell's generally useless for sleep/resume without a new dsdt?03:43

thullyIn my experience, it has worked beautifully - that's funny.03:43
mdzjdub: so I guess I should dpkg-reconfigure them from casper03:43
mjg59thully: Try small font sizes with sub-pixel anti-aliasing and the autohinter03:44
mjg59Without the autohinter, 6-point fonts are readable. With it, they're a blurry mess of colour.03:44
mjg59If the autohinter could be enabled above a certain size, that would be a good compromise03:44
thullyI've had problems like that - but only on KDE, GNOME has always been fine (however, I don't use many 6-pt fonts)03:45
mjg59Heh. All my terminals are 6-point03:45
thullywell - I'll try this - but I thought autohinter was working well before03:46
thullythe fonts looked like some of the best I've ever seen, especially on xorg w/latest freetype03:46
danielsmjg59: you could probably wrap the autohinter definition in a if size > 6 glob03:47
thullyWhat did you think of autohinter >6pt, ou of curiosity03:47
mjg59A slight improvement, I think03:47
mjg59Oh, except on foreign fonts03:47
thullyFor me, it seems great - may depend on the TFT.03:47
mjg59The problem seems to be with fonts with fine details, which can be latin characters at small sizes or more intricate characters at larger sizes03:48
thullyWell, put something in the installer or the definition to not use autohinter on these fonts03:48
mjg59thully: http://www.codon.org.uk/~mjg59/tmp/fonts.jpg - small font with autohinter03:49
thullyI wonder why KDE is always worse than GNOME with these fonts... seems weird03:49
mjg59(sub-pixel is actually switched off in that one)03:49
thullyI see - you like small fonts in your terminals :)03:50
thullyI just use the default in GNOME's terminal, whatever that is03:51
thullyThe thing that has caused the most trouble with the new live CD is how long it takes to boot.03:53
bob2ogra_: congrats!03:53
thullyPart of this is that the installer makes it take a long time to get through network configuration without configuring a network (and you can't pick wi-fi if wi-fi isn't currently in range, on both the live and install cds)03:54
mdzmy system is always connected to a network, so I haven't noticed03:56
danielsmdz: so ntpdate doesn't bite you in the arse :P03:56
=== daniels goes back to php4-imap.
thullywell - I'm on a laptop, and I'm on and off dial-up and wi-fi03:57
thullyntpdate always errors for me on boot03:57
thullyany way that the application-switching buttons on the taskbar could be enlarged?03:59
mdzdaniels: oh, you're fixing that?04:01
mdzthully: right-click, preferences, Size tab04:02
danielsmdz: well, you asked me to ...04:03
thullyI think they should be bigger by default - as they only take up this tiny area of the bottom taskbar and only show 1 character of the app name by default.04:04
mdzah, didn't see your followup comment04:04
thullymdz: I can't find preferences - only properties and size there changes the size of the whole panel, not just the task buttons04:05
danielsmdz: i assume we want it for hoary, no?04:05
mdzdaniels: yes04:06
danielsphat04:06
mdzthully: you need to right-click on the nub between the 'show desktop' button and the leftmost windowlist item04:06
thullyOK - sorry about that04:07
thullyAlso, could somebody look into the network configuration part of the installer and make it more friendly to people who don't want to configure any network card, or who want to configure a network card but who aren't connected at the moment04:07
thullyOr they could just be auto-configured outside the install and something like ifplugd could be used04:08
jdubugh, fuse is merged in -mm04:09
danielsthully: as I understand it, there's a 'I'm not on a network right now' option04:11
thullyI didn't see it - I just saw ethernet and wireless04:12
thullyAlso, is it really needed during the install, if somebody isn't doing a net install?04:12
danielsthink: updates04:12
danielsalso configuring the network for the first time as to essid/ip/whatever04:12
danielsnot everyone has dhcp04:13
thullyIt seems like it would be better to leave this for post-install04:13
thullyis anything being done with respect to ifplugd and the like (I know they were going to use NetworkManager, but decided against it)04:14
jdubno, we've punted that to the next release04:14
jdubwill most likely be NM04:14
mdzthully: the common case is that the system is connected to a network, and it makes sense to bring it up immediately04:15
thullydaniels: also, if you want to configure wi-fi it refuses to configure unless you are actually at a WAP04:15
mdzon the live CD, it should fall back to not configuring the network, but that's polish for later04:15
thullywill the live CD use DHCP by default?04:15
mdzthat is what it does, yes04:16
mdzso when I boot it in my laptop, I end up with the network available automatically, which is what I want04:16
thullyIt seems like this network configuration should be modified to 1)allow somebody to configure wi-fi without being in range of a WAP 2)allow multiple network devices to be configured 3)have a clear option for "no network"04:17
mdzthere are far higher priorities at the moment04:19
mdzfor those currently working on the release, anyway04:19
mdzif you or someone else are interested in making those improvements, that would be great04:20
thullyOK - I know that there are more pressing issues - this network configuration step just seemed a bit confusing at this point04:20
mdzit is, in some corner cases04:21
mdzbut most users don't encounter the problems you've described04:21
thullywell, many people still have dial-up - and they would encounter this04:21
mdzonly if they also have ethernet and wireless interfaces that they aren't using04:21
thullyOK - well, maybe it isn't that common - still, many systems have built-in ethernet and/or wireless04:22
mdzyes, my laptop does for example04:23
mdzbut I use them, and they can be configured automatically04:23
thullyOK - I've used these also, when I'm in range of wireless04:24
mdzin fact I think we have the same laptop04:24
mdzwe just have different network environments04:24
thullyT42?04:24
mdzyes04:24
thullywell, maybe different T42 - but same basic laptop04:24
thullyI'm going to close some bugs soon - there are some which are too trivial to consider at this point, and some others that have been made obsolete that I've reported (especially the ones involving warty's live cd)04:26
mdzthe new live CD should address many of the bugs in warty's live cd, yes04:26
thullyAlso, I'll take a look at the timezone issues and the network config process - I don't think I can do anything about the network config because I don't know a whole lot about programming at this point (that will change soon, though)04:28

lamontdaniels: yeah, but even 30KB is better than 3KB...04:59
lamontfor the large jobs, I go snarf it down in town at 1.5Mbit05:00
lamontbecause 150-160KBytes/sec is much better than 3. :-)05:00
danielsheh :)05:01
thullyOh - I do all my downloading on a school connection - why download an ISO at 2.5 kbps when you can get it at 500kbps?05:01
lamontif I can't get dsl, I may colo a box at my buddy's place, and keep the mirror fresh there, then go rsync it over 802.11 from his driveway to my laptop....05:01

thullyis it really that much better than dial-up if you have to limit it to 30kbps?05:06
lamontthully: for my normal activity (ssh, web  surfing, etc), I don't throttle it.05:06
lamontthe mirroring is throttled so that I can spread the cost of fetching things over enough time to not matter.05:07
thullyI just end up using wi-fi at various places a lot05:07
lamontyou see, any 5 minute period where the total usage is < 56kbps gets discarded from the bill... Anything over 56kbps counts towards quota05:07
lamontyeah - I'm pretty well known at a couple coffee houses in town05:07
thullythat's why I hated it when I tried several linux distros and they didn't support my wi-fi - but Ubuntu works fine with it05:08
lamontthat's the goal: "it just works"05:08
lamontmdz: is baz 1.1 going into the archive?05:09

sivangpitti: garnacho says that the reason for not putting the profile stuff under /etc/g-s-t is per an intention to not put no system specific (i.e. distro nutral related programs files) in /etc/06:07
sivangpitti: g-s-t is multi platform tool, thus it's conffiles are put elsewhere.06:08
Kamionthat's ... odd06:08
sivangpitti: (according to upstream maintainer)06:08
Kamion /etc is everyone's configuration space, not just the distribution's06:08
Kamionwell06:09
T-BoneKamion: did you get my last 'report' on ia64?06:09
Kamiong-s-t might want to default to /usr/local/etc06:09
Kamionour g-s-t package should still put its configuration in /etc06:09
pittisivang: right, that's why I suggested to put it into /usr/share/gst/profiles or so06:09
robertjyeah, /usr/local is _my_ area06:09
KamionT-Bone: yes, haven't really processed it yet06:09
pittisivang: the initial default profile should not be something configurable06:09
KamionT-Bone: 20041227ubuntu6 is a version number more than a date, hence why it looks odd - that *is* current06:10
T-BoneKamion: k, then i'll wait before doign further testing ;)06:10
robertjif I want to store vital system state information by encoding it into the mtime of /usr/local, that's my perogative and nobody better mess with it ;)06:10
pittisivang: the _added_ and edited profiles should be somewhere in /etc/06:10
sivangpitti: yes, I was talking about a proper localtion for this, however I think we already agreed on "why should any profile be hardcoded in it?" ? :)06:11
sivangpitti: doing it that way, it would allow other distros to put in a profile to their likings, without bothering upstream for it.06:11
sivangrobertj: :)06:14
pittisivang: "hardcoded" in the sense of writing it directly into the perl backend06:15
sivangpitti: yes06:16
pittisivang: putting the default profile into a separate file is good, then it can be changed separately from the perl code06:16

HostingGeeki'll just like to point out a comment from wiki/PackageManager06:50
HostingGeekApart from installating from web browser, anoter VERY useful feature would be for the user to click in a .deb file, and synaptic opens and installs it. If there are missing dependencies, tries to find them in the repositories that the user had configured. If the file cannot be installed because of dependencies, then warn the user, else install the .deb without needing to open the console.06:50
HostingGeekif this is possible for hoary it should be done06:51
robertjI think that would be good if it was signed by a trusted key06:51

HostingGeekKamion: i know 06:52
HostingGeekthe reason why i pointed it out here for you guys to repond to it06:52
sladenHostingGeek: I think somebody was talking about a   kilk://package-name  URI which could then be feed to apt-get/kilk/synaptic to install 'properly06:53
sladenHostingGeek: could you research and find out what Linspire do in this area?06:53
HostingGeekKamion: i forgot the reason why packages are not sign instead of reps06:53
robertjjust a pie in the sky idea: what if every time you went to a web site it added it to a list of software in gnome-app-install under a seperate section06:54
robertjthat's really probably something more for beagle though06:54
jdubrobertj: not entirely pie-in-the-sky :)06:54
mvo_HostingGeek: for the "install a deb directly", it's not trivial and needs quite a bit of internal changes in apt to get the dependency stuff right06:54
robertjit would also be able to apt-get install mydeb.deb06:55
HostingGeekhmmm idea:06:56
robertjalso, theoretically we could use fam to log installs of software that weren't done through app06:56
mvo_robertj: see http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=47379 for details06:56
HostingGeekmake it more known that anyone can add apps to universe06:57
sladenwell, you could download a tarball that expanded to a reposetary, which could then be (temporyily) added to sources (pinning hack?) and the packages within that installed06:57

sivangHostingGeek: no, not gnome-about - the ubuntu about page07:30
=== ogra thinks there should be a MOTU home in the wiki....
robertjmdz: but to my very limited understanding of how things work, the .deb seems to be okay, and all the automated checks seem happy07:31
HostingGeeksivang: but if it was a hacked up version of gnome-about it can be started up at first boot with a option not to start up again07:31
HostingGeeki hear manbrake has something like this07:31
mdzogra: agreed07:32
sivangHostingGeek: I think the tendency is not to pop windows unwillingly infron of the user in ubutu, maybe one time window opened after install would be there, this is still worked by the documentation team.07:32
sivangHostingGeek: and you don't have to particulary hack the gnome about page so it could open, you can do it with whatever page you like.07:33

HostingGeekits better to hack gnome-about07:52
jdubno, it's not07:52
ograHostingGeek: nope07:52
jdubwe've decided, between the doc and desktop team to display it in yelp07:52
tsenggratitious patching of upstream = gross07:52
ograHostingGeek: you can feed yelp with xml.....07:53
HostingGeekits looks a lot better, you can start it at first boot with a little option to disable it from starting at first boot again...07:53
ograHostingGeek: for gnome-about you have to modify the app07:53

sivangHostingGeek: that can be doen with yelp also, not sure we want to do that.07:53
HostingGeeki can edit the app07:53
sivangHostingGeek: could be done with a mere shell script IMHO07:53

thullythat's my vote10:17
ograthully: ...it avoids an error dialog if sound doesnt work10:17

pittiseb128: since a few days, the gaim panel icon reduced to an 3-pixel wide line10:18

ajmitchogra: what about the CoC?10:30
ograhaggai: i'm targeting main, so i wont pick a special package in universe but fix all bugs in everything that needs it i think10:30

moochogra: so you see the lines...11:10
ogramooch: nope...11:10

seb128mooch: no11:10
moochogra: reduce the contrast of your monitor, or the brightness11:11
ogramooch: probably my display hasnt the contrast settings 11:11
seb128mooch: the windows are grouped in the panel if you active the option11:11
ograwait....11:11
moochi will try to modify the colour balance11:11
ograi see dashed lines if i hold my laptop in a weird angle11:11
moochseb128: i would like to move 2 windows grouped together...11:11

haggailamont/elmo: does either of you know off the top of your head where I can override the default path in sbuild?11:17
lamont??11:17
lamontI expect $HOME/.profile in the chroot...11:18
lamontyou're saying that you want to have sbuild use other than the default?11:18
haggaiyes, adding the ccache dir11:18
haggaisbuild seems to call chroot dpkg-buildpackage without modifying the environment explicitly, and there isn't a .profile in $HOME for the user11:19
lamontyou could see about overriding things by searching for: $env_cmnd dpkg-buildpackage11:20
lamontthat's where dpkg-buildpackage gets invoked.11:20
ajmitchhaggai: you want source-only changes for universe fixes?11:20
lamontI don't believe that there's anything for specifying environment variables11:20
haggaiajmitch: yup11:20
ajmitchgood, less pressure on bandwidth :)11:21
haggailamont: yes, I couldn't see anything straight off11:21
lamonthaggai: I know I hacked in arbitrary ENV stuff (for LANG, specifically), but I rather expect that $HOME/.profile is what you really want to mess with11:21
lamonter...11:22
lamont"cd $bdir && PATH=$conf::path ".11:22
lamontif you have that string, then I'd look at .sbuildrc for $path=....11:22
haggaioh I searched for PATH11:22
moochseb128: you see what i mean?11:22
haggailamont: are you looking at a patched sbuild?  I can't find PATH in the source at all11:23
lamontuh, probably11:23
lamontwhere did you get your sbuild?11:23
haggaidebian/universe11:23
lamontftp.debian.org, or the good one.11:24
lamontah, that one's crap11:24
haggaioh that's great :(11:24
azeemhaggai: don't listen to lamont11:24
azeem:)11:24
lamonthaggai: the one being used on all the buildd's that I know of is found at deb http://db.debian.org/ debian-admin/11:24
azeemlamont: really, the one at debian-admin is pretty crap, too, if you are not running a buildd by chance11:24
lamontazeem: well, true.11:24
lamontbut I'm almost certain it has $conf::path, because I don't remember hacking that in,11:25
azeemthe buildd I run has the one from debian-admin of course11:25
haggaiI would have found it believe me I searched for path stuff all over the source of that one11:25
haggailamont: where do I go from that URL?  I'm just on the search page11:26
lamontadd that to /etc/apt/sources.list is the easiest way.11:27
lamonthttp://db.debian.org/debian-admin/Packages.gz11:27
haggaiah secret voodoo11:27
lamontand then find what you want and give it the path relative to debian-admin/11:27
lamontnah, not secret.  apt.11:27
moochogra: no comments on that?11:29
ogramooch: no idea, sorry....is this hoary or warty ?11:29
lamonthaggai: the one in debian-admin insists that the only valid releases are 'stable', 'testing', and 'unstable'... you'll need to defeat that before you can use chroot-hoary...11:30
haggailamont: I already did that for the 'broken' one11:30
haggaithere is no source package in the Sources.gz11:30
lamontsbuild is not modified in building.11:30
lamontactually, the source package is wanna-build11:30
moochhoary11:31
moochogra: hoary updated 2 mins ago11:31
haggailamont: ah thanks11:31
ogramooch: already rebooted to get the new kernel to work and be sure that all changes are made ? did you use backports or any other foreign repo on warty ?11:32
moochogra: no reboot, but the problem is related with gnome-terminal, not with any other app11:35
moochand the only external repo is mplayer, which is, again, non-related11:36
ogramooch: there are certain changes that would need a X restart i guess (new fontconfig, xorg etc) they all could affect it, i would do a reboot to make sure everything is in place11:37
ogramooch: i did understand you correct, you updated from warty 2 mins ago ?11:38
moochhuh! no! I have neved had warty except for the day i installed the mahcine, and that lasted 10 minutes, back in mataro11:41
=== lamont solicits feedback on www.ubuntu.com/wiki/BuildDaemons

ogralamont: nice....at least i understand it :)11:52
lamontogra: is that a good thing??? :-)11:54
ogralamont: how should _i_ judge it (if thats a good thing) ? (wait, i'll ask my GF)11:55

ajmitchhaggai: package will be done soon, just doing a binary build first (and it's a slow box)11:57
ogralamont: she says its always good if i understand something....hmm11:58
