mdzlamont: thanks01:44
mdzrootfs. vs. d-i doesn't matter, as long as ISO builds happen after both01:44
mdznot that the d-i build goes into the archive right away anyway...01:44
lamontmy builds happen at 0615, and take ~30-40 minutes.  the ISO builds happen (IIRC) at 0800, so we're golden01:44

eruinwhy oh why are we receiving a broken firefox with the GNOME icon theme in hoary?03:14
thombroken how?03:15
=== eruin mumbles never mind me
eruina restart was in order03:16
eruinbut are the gnome icons there to stay? they aren't exactly as snazzy as the default ones03:16
thomno, but they are consistent03:17
thompoint being it actually looks and feels like it's meant to be on the desktop, rather than just bolted on after03:17
bluefoxicyhas anyone seen pitti lately?03:18
eruinI thought the whole idea behind the new firefox theme was to make it look integrated in both windows, gnome and osx ?03:18
schweeberuin: the icons match the ubuntu desktop03:19
eruinthat theme sure didn't look bolted on, but I'm sure you guys have already had a long discussion about it03:19
schweeberuin: if you don't like the theme, you're able to use one of your choosing03:19
thomit's not the same theme on windows and osx anyway03:19
thombut, shrug03:19
thomwe'll let people say what they think; if there's consensus that we shouldn't do it, odds are we won't03:20
thomas it stands i think it looks a hell of a lot better03:20
eruinatleast provide the standard ff theme in addition03:21
eruinthat theme isn't available for download anywhere, and the theme manager in ff still says firefox (default) by gerich03:21

farruinndoes this sound normal: I'm building gaim from ubuntu source package, I ran dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot, and it goes through the ./config process but when that finishes I get a message saying automake-1.8 is too old. It's not a fatal error though because ./configure runs again and apparently successfully because now it's compiling...06:02
farruinnI did sudo apt-get build-dep gaim before doing this then double checked that everything was up to date, and it is06:03

farruinnthis is warty btw06:08
farruinnno backports or anything unusual06:08
syn-ackMy question is this.... why build if its in the repo?06:08
syn-ackstill it more than likely is a shoddy .config 06:09

farruinnguifications needs gaim.pc which debian/rules deletes after install06:10

farruinncrimsun: I did apt-cache search gaim-dev but didn't find anything06:11

infinityPerhaps there should be. :)06:12
syn-ackaye, there should..06:12
crimsunright, it's in hoary/universe, and farruinn's using warty.06:13
syn-ackI think Im going to build a .deb of gaim 1.1.2 and check it out. heh06:15
infinityAhh, I see.  gaim-dev is brand new.06:16
farruinnapt-get source gets exactly the same source that was used to build the binaries available through apt, right?06:17
infinityNo.06:17
infinityapt-get source will get the most recent source listed in your deb-src lines.06:18

farruinnwell, I debianized it myself so it's not surprising07:32
farruinnI've read the debian new maintainers guide, but I don't know what to do about this07:32
YokoZarDirectories should only be made by dh_installdirs when it reads a file07:32

YokoZarAs it's handled instead by dh_installchangelogs08:06

crimsunwhen you run dpkg-buildpackage, it generates a .diff.gz, which is applied to the new upstream version when you run uupdate08:10
Mithrandirbut it ignores deletions.08:10
crimsunright08:10
MithrandirYokoZar: why do you remove the file from the package?08:10
YokoZarMithrandir: It was a binary version of Xdialog (instead I depend on xdialog package and use that)08:11
MithrandirYokoZar: ok.  You could ask upstream to remove it, though.08:11
Mithrandirand you can just remove it in the clean target and ignore the warning from dpkg-source08:12
YokoZarThat could work but it would make the package needlessly larger, heh08:12

YokoZarIs there a package out there that doesn't actually compile anything (ie: just copies files) that I can look at?08:59
sivangYokoZar: if you want to achive that, you need to use dh_install09:00
YokoZarI'm trying to figure out a good rules file that doesn't confuse the hell out of debhelper09:00
MithrandirYokoZar: don't use debhelper for the install part there, then.  Just cp stuff into the correct directories in debian.09:00
sivangYokoZar: and in the /debian folder, you need to have a file named <pkg-name>.install and list all the files you want to install and to where.09:00
YokoZarWell I have a bunch of cp stuff...the trick is figuring out the correct directories09:01
sivangYokoZar: well, what are you trying to copy?09:01
YokoZarAt that part of the rules file it looks like I should be putting them into debian/tmp/usr/bin/ and such09:01
YokoZarbut there is no tmp directory09:01
sivangtmp is created IIRC Only when dpkg attempts at building the sources09:01
sivang(or the stuff needs built in the pkg)09:02
YokoZarOr, rather, it isn't created by buildpackage then09:02
YokoZarSince I have the thing commented out I guess09:02
MithrandirYokoZar: make it, either with mkdir or dh_installdirs.09:02
YokoZarAnd copy the files into the tmp folder then?09:02
Mithrandiryeah, or debian/$packagename/$wherever.09:02
YokoZarCan I have dh_installdirs do it and prepend tmp/ to the front?09:03
dholbachhai sivang :-)09:03
sivangYokoZar: no, you can leave the files inside the /debian folder, use dh_installdirs to create the dirs you need, and dh_install to read your pkgname.install file and copy files where needed.09:03
sivangdholbach: yo danile, 'sup?09:03
MithrandirYokoZar: dh_installdirs knows where it should make the directories, so don't worry about debian/tmp and such.09:03
YokoZarWell what it's currently doing is making debian/package09:04
YokoZarAnd I can copy my files into package/usr/whatever09:04
Mithrandirsivang: dh_install installs the files from the tmp tree into the right directories, it doesn't copy them from the source package.09:04
MithrandirYokoZar: yes09:04
YokoZarThen when it gets to dh_install -s I get this error:09:04
YokoZarcp: cannot stat `./usr/bin': No such file or directory09:04
dholbachsivang: i'm trying to package a more recent version of glibmm, but i stumble over binary-or-shlib-defines-rpath09:04
MithrandirYokoZar: don't use dh_install for what you are trying to do, it's the wrong tool.09:05
YokoZarOh ok then09:05
dholbachso is anyone of you familiar with  binary-or-shlib-defines-rpath  and  -rpath  being used by Makefiles? there's a huge thread (at http://lists.debian.org/debian-mentors/2002/02/msg00042.html) and people seem to me not to be sure if such a lintian warning was worth messing around with a proper compilation/installation of a library09:05
MithrandirYokoZar: this is fairly basic stuff -- have you read debhelper(7) and the debian new maintainer's guide?09:06
YokoZarYeah I have I've even made the wine packages...I guess by not knowing exactly when dh_install was getting called09:06
Mithrandirdholbach: are you using DESTDIR when installing?09:07
sivangMithrandir: it can be used for a couple of file installment no?09:07
sivangMithrandir: (would like to know if I am using the wrong tool ;-)09:08
dholbachMithrandir: yes, it's in most of the Makefiles09:08
YokoZarok I commented out dh_install09:09
sivangMithrandir: it allows me to add how many files that I would like on the .install file, and relieves me from acutally changing the make rules in debian/rules...09:09
Mithrandirsivang: it seems you can use it both ways.09:09
sivangMithrandir: could you elobrate? I am not sure I have followed you...09:10
sivang*elaborate09:10
YokoZarThat's odd it didn't ask for my key or anything but spat out a .deb file09:10
Mithrandirsivang: read the man page rather than listening to me. :)09:10
sivangMithrandir: okok, mang pages were cool with dh_install so, nm ;-))09:10
Mithrandirdholbach: hmm, I seem to have participated in that thread. :)09:12
dholbachMithrandir: yes... and you (as infitiny@#debian-devel) told me something about chrpath, but i'm not sure, if that's of anyuse09:13
Mithrandirdholbach: you could just do chrpath -d $binaryname09:15
Mithrandirbut I wonder why it gets set; can you put your package online somehwere?09:15
Mithrandirs/somehw/somewh/09:15
dholbachMithrandir: seems to me that a standard Makefile (for a library) spitted out by auto* uses -rpath09:16
dholbachat least it also did in a library, i coded myself09:17
Mithrandirnot necessarily.09:17
dholbachMithrandir: in the current state the package doesnt build because the linker is confused :-)09:18
Mithrandirok, tell me when you have unconfused it and I can take a look, then09:19
dholbachMithrandir: brilliant :-)09:19
sivangMithrandir: is there a counterpart for dh_install ? I want to be able to remove the files my package put so I won't get a dpkg error when it tries to remove the dir09:22
dholbacherm... cool :-)09:22
dholbach:-D09:23
dholbachlibtoolize --force --copy   and the    debian/rules-libtool-is-a-fool--hack   did the trick09:23
=== dholbach bounces around Mithrandir happily
Mithrandirdholbach: libtool-is-a-fool shouldn't be needed any more -- try without it and see if it works.09:24
dholbachMithrandir: ok09:24
Mithrandirsivang: uhm?  I'm not sure I understand what you are talking about09:24
sivangMithrandir: I have used dh_install to install a couple of files into /etc/pkgname09:26
sivangMithrandir: when I remmove the package (purge) I get an error that dpkg couldn't remve the dir because it is not empy, which is right :)09:27
dholbachMithrandir: now i get those lintian-warnings again09:29
Mithrandirsivang: uhm, if you install stuff to /etc/pkgname, it's marked as a conffile and dpkg should DTRT when purging the package.  If you can provide the package in question, it's probably easier to see what's going on09:29
YokoZarWould it be ok to have symbolic links in /usr/share/package to /usr/bin ?  The scripts that I'm packaging are kinda screwy that way09:30
Mithrandirdholbach: hm.  If I may, I'd like to take a look at your package.09:30
dholbachright09:30
MithrandirYokoZar: sure, why shouldn't it be ok?09:30
YokoZarBecause /usr/share is for read only non-executables09:30
smurfixYokoZar: a symlink is not an executable. ;-)09:31
YokoZarYeah but what if someone had /usr/share mounted with no execute09:31
YokoZarAs he is supposed to be able to do09:31
smurfixYokoZar: ... though I might suspect that the stuff belongs in /usr/lib if it wants to exec from there09:31
YokoZarWouldn't trying to run a symlink there barf?09:31
smurfixYokoZar: I don't know offhand if symlinks are followed before that test09:31
smurfixYokoZar: let me check09:31
Treenaksjordi: yeah, a long long time ago :)09:32
smurfixYokoZar: no, that works09:32
YokoZarSo I can have the symlink?09:32
dholbachMithrandir: http://moz.gotdns.org/ubuntu/09:32
smurfixYokoZar: as I said, it might want to live in /usr/lib instead, but in principle, yes09:33

HwolfIs there any bug known that can cause I/O errors when doing a dist-upgrade?12:02
seb128sivang: no idea on what you are talking about12:03
=== T-Bone looks for someone with d-i/initrd knowledge (Kamion, fabbione?)
MithrandirHwolf: hardware errors.12:03
MithrandirT-Bone: what's the problem?12:04
HwolfMithrandir: I doubt it. I got it dist-upgrading 2 ubuntu-installations yesterday. On 2 different hdd's12:04
T-BoneMithrandir: well, I'm having some issues with zx6000: the MPT fusion drivers isn't properly loaded:12:04
MithrandirHwolf: same machine or different machines?12:04
T-BoneMithrandir: mptbase gets loaded, but not mptscsih, so that d-i doesn't see any SCSI host, and thus no disk on the box12:04
MithrandirT-Bone: loading it by hand works?12:05
T-Boneyes12:05
sivangMithrandir: I don't reckon you recived my link before you were diconnected?12:05
HwolfMithrandir: same machine, different hdd's12:05
Mithrandirsivang: can't see any, no.12:06
MithrandirHwolf: well, bad memory, bad motherboard, stuff like that.12:06
MithrandirT-Bone: sounds like the discover data files might need updating.  Do you know if it's autodetected by hotplug?12:06
jdubhrm, you guys know of any p2p vpn technologies?12:07
jdub(stressing the P in VPN, not necessarily security)12:07
T-Bonejdub: freenet?12:07
Mithrandirjdub: OE+IPSec?12:07
HwolfMithandir: Isn't it odd that it happens only on a hoary-dist-upgrade?12:07
T-BoneMithrandir: that info can be found in the installer logs?12:07
MithrandirHwolf: wrong, you have only seen it happen in that particular case.  :)12:08
MithrandirT-Bone: I'm not sure if the installer uses hotplug, which is why I'm asking.12:08
T-Boneyeah iirc it uses discover12:08
HwolfMithrandir: Compiled gentoo on this box without faults, I think it'd have shown up...12:08
Mithrandiryou can use both, I know it uses discover.12:08
MithrandirT-Bone: I was the guy developing d-i for a long time. :)12:09
MithrandirHwolf: true.12:09
T-BoneMithrandir: since i have not installed that box yet (and not yet willing to do so) it's gonna be hard to tell12:09
T-BoneMithrandir: hehe, just noticed who you are, thanks to /whois ;)12:09
MithrandirT-Bone: what's the PCI ID of the card?12:10
jdubMithrandir: needs to be a private network, not very interested in encryption; OE ends up being a bit useless there ;)12:10
T-BoneMithrandir: hold on, the box is booting.12:11
jdubT-Bone: hrm12:11
jdubT-Bone: where would i find out more?12:11
T-Bonewww.freenet.org iirc12:11
jdubta12:11
Mithrandirjdub: you could just use ip tunneling.12:11
jdubMithrandir: mmm, considering it12:11
jdubMithrandir: sorry for doubling up your sounder mail, btw, was replying as you8rs arrived12:12
Mithrandirjdub: ip tunneling and possibly do RIP or OSPF on top of it.  I don't know what complexity you are talking about.12:12
T-Bonejdub: it has moved to freenet.sf.net12:12
Mithrandirjdub: ah, I guess he's just happy about two answers.12:12
Mithrandir:)12:12
jdubT-Bone: hrm, doesn't sound appropriate ;)12:13
jdubso the idea is12:13
jdubto have a vpn across the 'net that our xboxes are attached to12:14
jduband possibly dual-use it for private sharing fun12:14
T-Bonetunneling is what you want then12:14
jdubseems to be the simplest approach12:14
abelliwhata about tunneling..yeah..12:14
T-Boneadd a bit of IPSEC for security and you're there12:15
jdubsecurity is for people who have something to hide12:15
Mithrandirjdub: normal static ip tunneling is dog simple to set up, at least as long as you don't want this to suddenly become a mesh or something.12:15
jdub;-)12:15
MithrandirI should get ipsec up and running on my home net12:15
jdubMithrandir: that's where it breaks down; i predict that being the next step12:15
T-Bonehehe12:15
jduband i don't really want all the data going through a central host12:15
Mithrandirjdub: daisy-chain?12:16
jdubpretty breakable ;)12:16
Mithrandirthat's also fairly simple, as long as the chain's not too long.12:16
T-BoneMithrandir: come to think of it: there's no way hotplug would _need_ to detect mptfusionh:12:16
MithrandirT-Bone: mhm?12:16
T-BoneMithrandir: the box _can't boot_ if that driver isn't preloaded by the initrd12:16
T-Bone(or builtin the kernel)12:16
MithrandirT-Bone: ah, makes sense.  Kindof.  Discover's data files should possibly just be updated, then.12:17
T-BoneMithrandir: PCI ID: 20:01.[01]  SCSI storage controller: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic 53c1030 PCI-X Fusion-MPT Dual Ultra320 SCSI (rev 07)12:18
T-Bone(there are two of these)12:18
T-BoneMithrandir: if you tell me how to do that, I'm ok to do it :)12:18
=== T-Bone is clueless WRT discover and friends
MithrandirT-Bone: look at the /usr/share/discover/pci-26.lst file; The format is fairly self-explanatory.  That is generated from somewhere, but I don't remember where offhand.12:19
Mithrandirjdub: look at mobilemesh?12:20
T-Bonek. lemme boot a ubuntu box :)12:21
jdubMithrandir: looking...12:21
Mithrandirjdub: I think it might be appropriate, but I've never used it myself.12:22
Mithrandirseems like it was written for 2.2, so it might need a bit of brushing-up.12:22

seb128sivang: if you don't describe the bug in a better way ..12:39

Treenaksrobertj: (flash is not supported)04:31
robertjTreenaks: why should a browser crash bring my whole desktop experience to a grind?04:31
Treenaksrobertj: no, the flash player is buggy and brought your browser down, which brought your desktop down04:32

robertjTreenaks: it's a bug, and not a flash problem, deal with it04:32
TreenaksHwolf: well, it could make it slow... add more memory04:32
robertjif someone goes and uses your file format to do something it wasn't intended to do, and it crashes, it shouldn't grind the whole desktop to a halt04:33
Treenaksrobertj: ask on #ubuntu - this is the development channel. not the supoprt channel.04:33

truluxthis intentionally calls mprotect(PROT_EXEC) for the highest possible05:26

truluxwords, this is a specific, underhand cheat to trigger 'Vulnerable'05:26

truluxok05:27

truluxmaybe Ingo is not so wrong05:27
truluxpaxtest DOES specifical stuff for pax testing05:28
bluefoxicydoesn't matter.  I used real tests and got real results.05:28
truluxand PaX has a REALLY different mem mapping style05:28
truluxso05:28
tsengare you guys making a point, or is this #debian-hardend stuff?05:28
bluefoxicyuh05:28
bluefoxicytseng has a point05:28
bluefoxicyI just woke up05:28
bluefoxicyand I was looking for pitti05:28
truluxusing a mprotect call against a top mem area gets killed on PaX05:28
truluxbut not on ES05:28
truluxit uses a different manner for that, even unsecure when doing so05:29
truluxbut different in the end05:29
truluxanyway this is a bit funny:05:29
truluxhere are the paxtest-0.9.5 results with that single purpose-less line05:29
truluxremoved, for the categories that matter to me:05:29
trulux Executable anonymous mapping             : Killed05:29
trulux Executable bss                           : Killed05:29
trulux Executable data                          : Killed05:29
trulux Executable heap                          : Killed05:29
trulux Executable stack                         : Killed05:29
truluxpaxtest gives Killed if the called test returns 1) exit(0) 2) breaks 3) gets SIGKILL05:30
truluxit's just like when you catch up the elf_map() call in the kernel05:30

=== jbailey needs to setup epiphany with a smart toolbar for bugzilla.

thomby the way, bugzilla.ubuntu.com/1763 DTRT11:30
jbaileymdz: Yup, this is hotplug suckage.  It doesn't actually probe the IDE bus, which is pretty much what you'd need.11:32
jbaileyAnd whoosh, I see that further down.11:33
jdubthom: see the mails re: default firefox theme on ubuntu-user?11:33

=== dholbach [~dholbach@td9091b16.pool.terralink.de] has left #ubuntu-devel []
jbaileymdz: I'd far prefer to see Marco's patch included in hotplug.  It would be correct, I think, to just probe the bus that way.  SCSI might need the same thing for tape devices, too.  I haven't run a pure udev hotplug system with a scsi tape.11:36
sjoerdjdub: did you try the gamin packages on a debian box ? my nautilus hangs on startup with them..11:36
sjoerdjdub: still checking what the problem is.....11:37
mdzjbailey: SCSI dtrt already11:37
mdzjbailey: I guess there are two  issues11:37
mdzjbailey: one is that the ide-* modules aren't loaded based on devices found on the bus (that bit is addressed by marco's patch)11:37
mdzjbailey: the other bit is ide-generic needing to be loaded at the right time11:37
jbaileyLemme do a quick check, but I don't think ide-generic needs to be loaded in any particular order, I think it just needs to be loaded.11:38
mdzI'm fairly certain it needs to be loaded after the chipset-specific driver11:38

dholbachcan any one give me some gdb-superpowers to get coaster going in ubuntu? :-)11:46
T-Bonemdz: well i tend to think about that, but then I'm pretty puzzled by the fact that it only affects a few manpages11:47
mdzT-Bone: which ones?11:47
T-Bonemdz: besides, i don't see how/why that would mess with things both on local ttys and on remote logins11:47
T-Bonemdz: a few examples are: lspci, less, mkfs...11:47
mdzwhich part of the lspci man page?11:48
T-Bonemdz: i've tried a few at random and it happened several times11:48
T-Boneall parts11:48
T-Bonemdz: it doesn't affect gnome terminal or xterm on hoary11:48
jbaileymdz: At a quick glance it appears that ide-generic can be loaded before the piix driver.  My other machine is an sis5513.  I'll try that too.11:48
T-Bonemdz: try them on your local VTs11:48
T-Bonemdz: you'll immediately understand what i'm talking about11:48
mdzT-Bone: ok, I didn't see that you were talking about the console11:49
mdzthat's an entirely different set of issues11:49
mdzprobably the unicode hyphen character is missing from the font, or some such11:49
T-Bonemdz: but wth would that affect only a few manpages?11:49
mdzT-Bone: it will affect any man page which uses '-'11:50

mdzand I can't see what11:58
mdzvia82cxxx              13852  111:58
jbaileymdz: That's what the current initrd does at startup.  It loads all the ide drivers, mounts the filesystem, and tries to unload them all.  Whatever is left is yours. =(11:59
mdzI've unloaded ide-* (except ide-core, which is used by via82cxxx)11:59
jbaileyIF your partition is mounted on it, it'll hold the reference internally.12:00
thomjdub: also, someone (schweeb or eruin?) asked about getting winstripe as an option, so i'll look at doing that later12:00
jbaileyInteresting. It looks like ide-generic itself is finding the ide bus on my boxes, and that the chipsets are then saying no bus'.12:01
mdzjbailey: yeah, that's the thing12:01
jbaileyFeh.12:01
mdzide-generic needs to be loaded last12:01
