| Evaso | anybody here? | 12:08 |
|---|---|---|
| sivang | hi Evaso , what do you mean udf printing? | 12:09 |
| Evaso | sivang: packet cd wrting | 12:09 |
| Evaso | sivang: is in the upstream kernel 2.6.10 | 12:09 |
| sivang | Evaso: join #ubuntu-kernel and ask there, they may know better :) | 12:10 |
| Evaso | sivang: but i think we have problem in debian/unstable ubuntu about autmatically mount this type of cd/dvd with writing support available | 12:10 |
| Evaso | sivang: i had in debian already available, so is also in hoary, the problem is about user space tools | 12:11 |
| sivang | Evaso: aren't they also in universe? | 12:11 |
| Evaso | sivang: do u know that the packet writing is created as a virtual device /dev/pktcdvd/0 ? | 12:12 |
| sivang | Evaso: sorry, I have no idea :-( | 12:12 |
| sivang | Evaso: If you're question is regarding when/how/if to add support for this in ubuntu, you could email the devel list with your suggestion to it and I'm sure somebody would comment and respond you. | 12:13 |
| ogra | Evaso, CONFIG_CDROM_PKTCDVD=m | 12:14 |
| ogra | Evaso, so the module should be there | 12:14 |
| sivang | ogra: what about the user space tools? if they're not in universe we should get them there :) | 12:15 |
| ogra | Evaso, (from /boot/config-2.6.10-3-amd64-k8) | 12:15 |
| Evaso | ogra: i tink that the module is compiled already in the kernel | 12:15 |
| ogra | sivang: then someone should put them on UniverseCandidates | 12:16 |
| Evaso | but how pmount/fstab handle the /dev/pktcdvd/0 device? | 12:16 |
| ogra | Evaso: that was what i meant with the baove | 12:16 |
| sivang | Evaso: that's intersting question, you can ask pitti here tommorow morning if you like, or have the module loaded and expriment :). (he wrote pmount) | 12:17 |
| ogra | Evaso: sorry, i never used packetcd, so i cant tell | 12:17 |
| sivang | Evaso: can this be tested on CDRWs as well? (as opposed to DVDs) | 12:17 |
| Evaso | ogra/sivang: mounting manually on debian unstable works perfectly | 12:18 |
| sivang | Evaso: and you can add remove files as much as you want? | 12:18 |
| Evaso | for example mount /dev/pktcdvd/0 /mymedia/cdrom | 12:18 |
| ogra | Evaso: does it work manually on ubuntu ? | 12:18 |
| Evaso | i had not ubuntu installed but i tink that (as debian) it mount udf on /dev/hdx so is only readable | 12:19 |
| === jinty [~jinty@115.Red-80-24-9.pooles.rima-tde.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| ogra | Evaso: but i think the above way would work in ubuntu too | 12:20 |
| Evaso | yes can u install udftools in ubuntu? | 12:20 |
| ogra | Evaso: even if the cdrom defaults to hdX you should be able to mount it manually like above | 12:21 |
| sivang | Evaso: udftools installed fine here :0 | 12:21 |
| sivang | Evaso: sorry, I meant = :-) | 12:21 |
| Evaso | well, so "the console" way is the ubuntu choiche? | 12:21 |
| Evaso | sivang: can u format a cdrw with udf? | 12:22 |
| sivang | Evaso: I can try, but I use stock kernels. | 12:22 |
| ogra | sivang: it should work with the stock kernel | 12:22 |
| sivang | Evaso: I am not sure if I have udf support in stock kernel, and I am not going to recompile one now - sorry am too busy for that :-( | 12:22 |
| sivang | ogra: ah ok | 12:22 |
| sivang | Evaso: then I can give it a try for you :) | 12:22 |
| sivang | ogra: how do I enable it? modprobe pktcdvd ? | 12:23 |
| ogra | sivang: btw: cat /proc/filesystems should show you udf | 12:23 |
| sivang | nodev binfmt_misc | 12:24 |
| sivang | udf | 12:24 |
| sivang | iso9660 | 12:24 |
| sivang | yes, so I have it :) | 12:24 |
| ogra | sivang: you, you load the pktcdvd | 12:24 |
| ogra | module | 12:24 |
| dholbach | anyone familiar with gnome-cdbs--packaging? | 12:24 |
| dholbach | and yes... i know that seb128 isnt here :-) | 12:24 |
| ogra | dholbach: he just left | 12:24 |
| sivang | dholbach: to what degree? ;-) (I know really tincy bits if it) | 12:24 |
| Evaso | sivang: do u not need to modprobe pktcdvd udftools load it on boot | 12:24 |
| dholbach | sivang: gconf installation stuff throws an error | 12:25 |
| sivang | Evaso: I didn't do that, and I pasted you the output of my fs modueles :) | 12:25 |

| sivang | dholbach: you'd better he help you :) | 12:26 |
| Evaso | sivang: no u must to format a cd for udf with mkudffs | 12:26 |
| sivang | jbailey: Hey Jeff :) | 12:26 |

| seb128 | dholbach: no idea, why ? | 12:40 |
| seb128 | jdub: hey :) About the theme, pmi has sleep/hibernate actions, dunno if you want 2 actions in gdm | 12:40 |
| dholbach | seb128: i'm busy with coaster and the installation of the gnome-help always fails | 12:41 |
| seb128 | how ? | 12:41 |

| seb128 | let me know if I need to add an hibernate mode to gdm | 12:42 |
| seb128 | atm there is a suspend action | 12:42 |
| seb128 | if we want both suspend/hibernate we need to hack it :) | 12:43 |
| seb128 | dholbach: I don't get your issue, yelp doesn't list it ? | 12:43 |
| dholbach | seb128: no, the package isnt built :-) | 12:43 |
| jdub | seb128: i think it's worth doing that anyway, for future use | 12:44 |
| dholbach | seb128: just wanted to know if you knew about any issues regarding help/* in the wrong directories | 12:44 |
| seb128 | the make install should do that correctly, the package doesn't change anythin here | 12:44 |

| lamont | tuxdisciple: nah.. much simpler. | 01:05 |
| lamont | 1) make sure you have linux-image-2.6.10-4_2.6.10-23 installed | 01:05 |
| lamont | then wait for me to finish building the -24 candidate | 01:05 |
| tuxdisciple | lol | 01:05 |
| lamont | of course, -23 needs to be booted with 'noinotify' unless you like pain | 01:06 |
| lamont | then install the -24 candidate | 01:06 |
| tuxdisciple | I'll update to it right now... | 01:06 |
| lamont | but don't reboot into -24, and see if modprobe will install modules, or if it bitches | 01:06 |
| lamont | (that is, we need to verify that modules from -24 can load on a -23 kernel) | 01:06 |
| tuxdisciple | so... update to -23, alter menu.lst to make sure it does noinotify as a kernel option I assume... | 01:07 |
| tuxdisciple | then update to -24 and try to modprobe will install modules | 01:07 |
| sivang | tseng: how do I install build deps of a package? (it saves alot awful build env installs by hand ) | 01:07 |
| tuxdisciple | I'll need to modprobe with a full path to the -24 modules won't I? | 01:08 |
| ogra | sivang: sudo apt-get build-dep <packagename> | 01:08 |
| sivang | ogra: thanks, I did "build-deps" didn't work :) | 01:08 |
| dholbach | sivang: let pbuilder do it for you :-) | 01:08 |
| sivang | dholbach: ah, you're right, I should set it up but not now :) maybe tommorow | 01:09 |
| tuxdisciple | lamont, That sound right ? | 01:09 |
| dholbach | sivang: the instruction on wiki/PbuilderHowto is very straight-forward | 01:10 |
| lamont | won't need full path - the -24 candidate overwrites the -23 modules... | 01:12 |
| lamont | hence the need to test | 01:12 |
| sivang | dholbach: I Kniw, been thinking of doing it for quite some time now | 01:12 |
| tuxdisciple | Okay, I'm updated to -23, rebooting now, and I'll be back in a minute | 01:12 |

| schweeb | hah, why? | 02:01 |
| tseng | he was the sucker that got stuck building it | 02:01 |
| schweeb | lol | 02:02 |
| tseng | http://wiki.debian.net/?MonoDebianPlan | 02:02 |
| schweeb | yea, they include mono-lite or something to bootstrap mcs now, don't they | 02:02 |
| tseng | youll want to read that, to understand why the current debian mono project is in a state of flux for now | 02:02 |
| tseng | no, its all one source package now | 02:02 |
| lamont | is there a ghc6 package for amd64 lying around anywhere? | 02:04 |
| schweeb | tseng: heh, well, I'll look into packaging 1.1.4, but maybe I'll just mock up some dummy packages to solve dependencies (I'm a bit lazy) | 02:05 |
| daniels | lamont: EMM CEE ESS | 02:06 |
| tseng | schweeb: ok. probably want to start from scratch | 02:06 |
| lamont | daniels: remind me to steal a couple of geforce cards from you while I'm in the neighborhood. | 02:06 |
| lamont | or stop saying that word | 02:06 |
| schweeb | I've done lots of packages, but all of them have been single package binaries... this'll be a big leap for me hehe | 02:06 |
| daniels | lamont: sure ... i'll buy you the drink of your choice while you're here :) i don't want 'em | 02:06 |
| lamont | woot | 02:07 |
| daniels | lamont: i just got the fastest card known to man (an ati card) today | 02:07 |
| daniels | so i have no idea what i would want with pci geforces | 02:07 |

| jdub | Mithrandir: why doesn't ssl-cert depend on openssl? | 02:09 |
| lamont | mjg59: which, depending on your sleep cycle, could mean that you could catch a nights sleep :-) | 02:10 |
| mjg59 | Ha | 02:10 |

| mjg59 | And packing. And washing. | 02:13 |
| lamont | mjg59: pack now. sleep now. :-) | 02:13 |

| jdub | Mithrandir: without it installed, ssl-cert just breaks | 04:05 |
| jdub | Mithrandir: or are there other options? | 04:05 |
| jdub | Mithrandir: regardless, it means the package that depends on ssl-cert also needs to depend on openssl | 04:05 |
| === lamont grumbles at Kamion, makes a note to pester him tomorrow | ||
| Mithrandir | jdub: I know; I think it's fixed in Debian | 04:06 |
| jdub | ahar | 04:06 |
| jdub | oh | 04:06 |
| jdub | stupid english | 04:06 |
| jdub | i thought you were saying "it doesn't depend on openssl because openssl is buggy" :) | 04:06 |

| lamont | /usr/sbin/livecd.sh: line 65: sudo: command not found | 04:08 |
| lamont | oops | 04:08 |
| lamont | jdub: there are a few things that do things that are guaranteed to be broken on the poor unloved bastards, instead of generally working. | 04:08 |
| jdub | due to our changes, or...? | 04:09 |
| jdub | dmidecode ;) | 04:09 |
| lamont | our changes. | 04:09 |
| lamont | ubuntu-meta, debootstrap | 04:09 |

| lamont | console-data | 04:10 |
| jdub | yeah | 04:10 |
| === lamont has no clue where he got that list from | ||
| lamont | actually, daniels has the fix for xresprobe, and I think was going to just include it | 04:10 |
| lamont | then there's the whole cluster surrounding bastard archs without oo.o available, and what that really means to ubuntu-* | 04:11 |
| Mithrandir | lamont: I forgot to bring the ultra home last night :( sorry. Going to fosdem today, so it's probably not really worth bothering as fabio gets back soonish. | 04:11 |
| lamont | Mithrandir: yeah | 04:11 |
| lamont | Mithrandir: I should really fetch some bits and install the SS20 that I have | 04:12 |
| jdub | Mithrandir: ooh, rock! say hello to everyone for us :) | 04:12 |
| Mithrandir | jdub: bringing a small bunch of Ubuntu CDs too, so I can spread the love. | 04:12 |
| lamont | my kids school is dumping windoze in favor of linux in march. Somehow I doubt they've picked ubuntu, but the IT specialist has a copy of the CD as of today | 04:13 |
| jdub | s/spread the love/pick up girls/ | 04:13 |
| lamont | had heard of ubuntu, too | 04:13 |
| lamont | jdub: but no picking up love and such, ehy? | 04:13 |
| Mithrandir | jdub: dude, I have a girlfriend already. :) | 04:13 |
| jdub | Mithrandir: but we know the real reason why you're taking ubuntu cds to fosdem ;) | 04:14 |

| zul | Mithrandir: even "optomize" you? | 04:15 |
| Mithrandir | that too | 04:15 |
| === tseng slaps some -ffast-math on Mithrandir's makefile | ||
| Mithrandir | tseng: I was compiled long time ago, my source is buried within me and is non-free. (: | 04:16 |
| HrdwrBoB | haha | 04:17 |
| HrdwrBoB | actually the EULA you sign when you give samples says otherwise | 04:17 |
| Mithrandir | HrdwrBoB: I haven't given any samples. | 04:17 |
| HrdwrBoB | lucky you :) | 04:18 |
| Mithrandir | jdub: somebody should implement an rsync backend for gnomevfs. | 04:18 |
| HrdwrBoB | never a blood test? | 04:18 |
| Mithrandir | HrdwrBoB: had those, but never signed anything. | 04:18 |
| HrdwrBoB | ahh | 04:18 |
| jdub | Mithrandir: what would it rsync against? | 04:18 |
| daniels | lamont: yeah | 04:19 |
| Mithrandir | jdub: rsync is faster than ssh copying and it means I don't lose stuff when it breaks. | 04:19 |
| HrdwrBoB | sorry, actually the problem was after it's removed frin your body you have no logal right to it (in australia) | 04:19 |
| jdub | Mithrandir: what would it rsync against? :) | 04:19 |
| === lamont giggles that gdb is part of desktop, but gcc isn't | ||
| Mithrandir | jdub: whatever you tried to connect to. :) | 04:20 |
| Mithrandir | jdub: I tend to rsync against, say golem.intern.err.no and shonap.err.no, over ssh. | 04:20 |
| jdub | Mithrandir: and locally? | 04:20 |
| lamont | daniels: woot | 04:20 |
| Mithrandir | jdub: it'd probably need some way to say "resume this transfer" and "sync those trees". | 04:20 |
| Mithrandir | but, breakfast. | 04:21 |
| jdub | this is why i ask... it ends up being a lot more than just a gnome-vfs backend :) | 04:21 |
| === robertj adds to the list of stuff for https://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/GrumpyGroundhog | ||
| Mithrandir | jdub: nautilus backend, whatever. :) ssh copying through nautilus is currently fairly useless since it's so slow | 04:25 |
| Mithrandir | and it causes nautilus to crash | 04:25 |
| robertj | Mith: my experience with gnomevfs is that it is totally unusable for anything | 04:25 |
| jdub | hrm, works ok here | 04:25 |
| Mithrandir | jdub: it's about 1/3 to 1/5 of the speed I get with rsync or tar + ssh | 04:26 |
| Mithrandir | haven't tried with plain sftp, since the cli sftp client suck. :) | 04:27 |
| robertj | Mith: is there something in specific that has caused vfs handlers to break? I'm pretty sure everything is installed and that I have had similar problems with fresh installs from array | 04:29 |
| Mithrandir | robertj: unsure, I haven't started debugging it. It takes a bit of courage to work myself up to work on this kind of stuff. :) | 04:30 |
| robertj | Yeah | 04:31 |
| robertj | I don't think all the session handlers are even registered | 04:32 |

| jdub | kernel-team-admin goes to the admins | 05:36 |

| jdub | i forget if there's a similar one for just the moderators | 05:36 |
| jdub | lamont: ok, thanks | 05:36 |
| jdub | drbyte: dude, you should sign up to the kernel-team mailing list! :) | 05:36 |

| davyd | so that when I dist-upgrade, it doesn't suck in a Ubuntu kernel that, while great, is missing symbols I need (stupid Linux's fault) and break my system | 11:25 |
| Treenaks | pitti: no new features = no new bugs, too | 11:25 |
| davyd | please | 11:25 |
| abelli | ..i mean.. whos the technical administrator | 11:25 |

| Kamion | sl-modem-daemon, I mean | 11:25 |
| davyd | Kamion: it depends on a kernel module | 11:25 |
| davyd | I thought it was a bit of a nutty dependancy myself | 11:25 |
| Kamion | davyd: if it's not a kernel module itself, it should not depend on kernel modules or kernel packages | 11:25 |
| Kamion | for the exact reason you cite | 11:25 |
| davyd | ok then | 11:25 |
| davyd | it's a new thing... I assumed there was a reason for it | 11:26 |
| davyd | that said, I should try out the latest nVidia drivers, see if they run on my machine, then I could switch back to Ubuntu kernels | 11:26 |
| === davyd mumbles about Linux removing symbols from the STABLE KERNEL | ||

| davyd | Kamion: yes, but it vaguely worked | 11:27 |
| davyd | if you had a nice wrapper | 11:27 |
| Kamion | the stability, if any, is in the interaction with userspace, not in the interaction with modules | 11:27 |

| mantiena | seb128, I wanna told hi ;) it seems you forgot one thing, which you promised - look at bug http://bugs.debian.org/255232 | 11:36 |
| seb128 | after discussion with upstream the consensus seems to be that the current category is the right one | 11:37 |
| seb128 | http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=139912 | 11:38 |
| pitti | Riddell: is http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CAN-2004-1145 fixed in Hoary's kdelibs? | 11:42 |
| mantiena | seb128, most users and developers of other archiving tools, for example ark frok kdeutils don't think so ;) | 11:42 |
| mantiena | s/frok/from/ | 11:43 |
| seb128 | right, you are "most users and developers" | 11:44 |
| seb128 | and kde is a reference | 11:44 |
| mantiena | seb128, I'm not most users and developers | 11:44 |
| seb128 | feel free to argue in bugzilla.gnome.org | 11:44 |
| seb128 | so you have your point of view | 11:44 |
| mantiena | seb128, ok, you will change file-roller to system tools category in ubuntu or leave Accessories ? | 11:45 |
| seb128 | I'll let it here | 11:45 |
| Riddell | pitti: " in Konqueror in KDE 3.3.1" hoary has KDE 3.3.2 | 11:45 |
| seb128 | mantiena: why ? | 11:46 |
| pitti | Riddell: okay, can you please add it to the changelog | 11:46 |
| pitti | Riddell: thanks | 11:46 |
| Riddell | pitti: why? it was never an issue in KDE 3.3.2 | 11:46 |
| pitti | Riddell: the "new upstream version" changelog should say that this version fixes this CAN | 11:47 |
| mantiena | seb128, in Ubuntu file-roller is in Accessories, while in Debian - in System Tools, it's not good from my point of view | 11:47 |
| pitti | Riddell: this makes it easier to track bugs | 11:47 |
| seb128 | mantiena: why ? | 11:47 |
| pitti | Riddell: I add it to the manual override for now, but for later it is always nice to have the CANs in the changelog | 11:48 |
| pitti | Riddell: this enables automatic health checking (see http://people.ubuntu.com/~pitti/ubuntu-cve.html | 11:48 |
| seb128 | mantiena: take debian and ubuntu, they don't even have the same top menus | 11:48 |
| seb128 | mantiena: applications/actions in debian, applications/places/system in ubuntu | 11:48 |
| Riddell | pitti: but the problem was discovered long after 3.3.2 was released. do I have to make a new upload just to note the CAN doesn't apply in the changelog? | 11:48 |
| pitti | Riddell: no, no new upload | 11:49 |
| pitti | Riddell: it's not urgent | 11:49 |
| pitti | Riddell: just add it to the next upload | 11:49 |
| Riddell | pitti: ok, I'll try to remember | 11:49 |
| pitti | Riddell: now it's in my override file anyway | 11:49 |
| pitti | Riddell: do you use arch/cvs/whatever to manage these packages? | 11:49 |
| mantiena | seb128, both have same Applications menu and same categories (submenus) in this menu. so, you leave file-roller in one category in ubuntu and in other category in debian ? | 11:50 |
| seb128 | mantiena: I stop trolling here, you are not happy argue upstream | 11:50 |
| ogra | seb128: if i want a icon in a .desktop file, is the current way to give it the complete path ? or is there a saner way ? | 11:50 |
| seb128 | mantiena: I'm following upstream decision in debian that's all | 11:50 |
| seb128 | mantiena: we make choice in ubuntu | 11:50 |
| Kamion | pitti: CAN-2004-0969 was fixed in Debian groff 1.18.1.1-2 | 11:51 |
| seb128 | ogra: just the icon name without an extension | 11:51 |
| pitti | Kamion: right, I just added that to my override :-) | 11:51 |
| Riddell | pitti: no we don't, sounds like a good idea for our KDE 3.4 packages though | 11:51 |
| pitti | Kamion: I currently walk down the list of open issues and override/patch it | 11:51 |
| ogra | seb128: and the icon in /usr/share/pixmaps....but its not found then.... | 11:51 |
| seb128 | ogra: ? | 11:51 |
| pitti | Riddell: having a Debian and Ubuntu branch sounds appropriate :-) | 11:51 |
| Kamion | pitti: *nod* | 11:51 |
| Riddell | pitti: how easy is arch to learn and setup? or could we have a repository set up for us? | 11:51 |
| pitti | Riddell: I have all kinds of branches for PostgreSQL, this works fine | 11:52 |
| pitti | Riddell: baz is relatively easy, if you already know cvs | 11:52 |
| ogra | seb128: that is how i did it since a long time, but now the icons are not shown if i dont give the path.... | 11:52 |
| Kamion | you don't need to have someone else set up your arch repository | 11:52 |
| pitti | Riddell: setting up an archive is a matter of one command | 11:52 |
| seb128 | ogra: no way | 11:52 |
| Kamion | unless you explicitly want a shared one; note you can merge changes among different archives | 11:52 |
| seb128 | Icon=media-player-48.png for totem.desktop | 11:52 |
| seb128 | ogra: do you have an icon for totem ? | 11:52 |

| Kamion | pitti: ~/.arch-params/hook | 12:34 |
| pitti | Kamion: I know commit mirrors | 12:34 |
| pitti | Kamion: you ssh to rookery on every commit? | 12:35 |
| Kamion | sure | 12:35 |
| pitti | Kamion: that requires the ssh password | 12:35 |
| pitti | Kamion: okay, that would work | 12:35 |
| Kamion | no it doesn't :) | 12:35 |
| Kamion | ssh-agent | 12:35 |

| pitti | Kamion: hmm, still, Riddel cannot do this | 12:36 |
| === haggai neither | ||
| Kamion | I find it easier to do it on every commit (so that it can use the ssh-agent in my session) than to try to figure out how to securely mirror to chinstrap/rookery from a cron job | 12:36 |
| Kamion | true | 12:36 |
| pitti | Kamion: maybe we should setup an alioth analogon for Ubuntu | 12:36 |
| pitti | Kamion: where everybody interested can get an account | 12:36 |
| pitti | at least all MOTUs | 12:36 |

| pitti | Kamion: TB issue? | 12:37 |
| T-Bone | fine and hungry :) | 12:37 |
| amu | pitti: that's the reason why i'll setup it also on my localnet | 12:37 |
| === Kamion feels rookery should be that machine, but I don't know what elmo thinks | ||
| pitti | amu: well, other people can branch off people.u.c :-) | 12:37 |
| thom | pitti: um, a PQM somewhere would obviate the need for logins, really | 12:38 |
| haggai | there was talk of webdav access, is that enough for baz? | 12:38 |
| pitti | Kamion: hmm, rookery should not be accessible to the world... | 12:38 |

| ogra | Kamion: i did....it works here for me...pitti had a prob on his test machine and changed the patch .... | 01:03 |

| ogra | to make it work for him.... | 01:04 |
| ogra | pitti: arch issue ? amd64 here | 01:04 |
| pitti | ogra: no, more like a race or a different building on buildds | 01:05 |

| ogra | ogra@honk:~/halstuff/hal-0.4.7 $ dpkg -l |grep cdbs | 01:06 |

| ogra | pitti: same version ? | 01:06 |
| pitti | ogra: what about using post-patches:: | 01:07 |
| pitti | ? | 01:07 |
| ogra | hmm | 01:07 |
| ogra | but it works fine here....also just tried it on my i386 ..... | 01:07 |
| dholbach | what about uudecoding it to .../tmp/usr/share/pixmaps/ ? | 01:08 |
| ogra | nah | 01:08 |
| dholbach | don't know if this is considered to be bad style | 01:08 |
| pitti | ogra: post-patches:: works for me | 01:09 |
| pitti | ogra: for you too? | 01:09 |
| ogra | me neither, but i want to know why configure/hal-device-manager:: isnt read .... | 01:09 |
| pitti | ogra: it makes more sense, too | 01:09 |
| pitti | ogra: it's probably read later | 01:09 |
| ogra | pitti: just exchange hal-device-manager ? | 01:09 |
| ogra | :: | 01:10 |
| pitti | ogra: the buildds might build the arch-any targets first, then arch-all | 01:10 |
| pitti | ogra: while you do it the other way round | 01:10 |
| pitti | ogra: s!configure/hal::!post-patches::! | 01:10 |

| Kamion | get a room :) | 02:40 |
| jdub | probably entirely out of sync | 02:40 |
| Mithrandir | jdub: Simira is mine! :P | 02:40 |
| smurfix | Kamion: That function (the ask-for-translated-strings part, anyway) was basically a no-op, so I can't see offhand how it would have hurt. | 02:40 |
| Treenaks | jdub: now all you need is sync :) | 02:40 |
| Simira | jdub: old enough, yes please, at my webcam? | 02:40 |
| jdub | oh man, now we're up to 10 clients | 02:40 |
| === sivang thinks he saw the word cybersex here. wonders what that means in ubuntu crowde | ||

| Mithrandir | Simira: have you played with the IR part of it? | 02:41 |
| Simira | sivang: it's the depht of UbuntuLove | 02:41 |
| Treenaks | jdub: great framerate though | 02:41 |
| HiddenWolf | sivang: just people getting exited without girlfriends, but looking at sexy code. | 02:41 |
| Kamion | smurfix: but ICBW I guess, I'll try stuff out | 02:41 |

| dholbach | Treenaks: hmm | 02:44 |
| Treenaks | jdub: AAAGH | 02:44 |
| Treenaks | jdub: don't do that! | 02:44 |

| dholbach | and i always told people, i didnt have a TV | 02:45 |
| Kamion | smurfix: 'd-i console-keymaps-at/keymap select uk' | 02:45 |
| Kamion | smurfix: booting with console-keymaps-at/keymap=uk is probably the easiest way to reproduce it at the moment | 02:46 |
| Kamion | since preseeding stuff that early is awkward | 02:47 |
| smurfix | Kamion: ah. I'll have a look ASAP. | 02:47 |
| Kamion | smurfix: (assuming an AT keyboard, anyway) | 02:47 |
| jordi | Mithrandir: what temperatures can I expect in Telemark at the end of March? | 02:47 |

| sivang | jdub: did you just wave? | 02:48 |

| Mithrandir | jordi: hmm.. Where in Telemark? Telemark goes from the sea up to at least 1000 m.a.s. | 02:48 |
| Simira | jordi: going to TG? You could expect anything from -10 to +15 celsius | 02:49 |
| jordi | Mithrandir: hmm. let me see. | 02:49 |
| Kamion | smurfix: ok, boot with DEBCONF_PRIORITY=critical console-keymaps-at/keymap=uk | 02:49 |

| jordi | oh dear dear dear | 02:50 |
| Mithrandir | jordi: I'm not sure if you'll see the sun. It'll probably be in the range from -25 to 0, I'd guess. | 02:50 |

| jordi | Simira: ok, I'm going to miss my toes | 02:52 |
| elmo | Kamion: hmm, I can definitely reproduce this problem on both i386 and amd64 with 2005-02-23 image, only in 'server'. | 02:52 |

| Kamion | elmo: anything interesting in syslog? | 02:53 |
| Treenaks | jdub: if you had asked their credit card numbers, you could now run out & buy new servers to support your growth | 02:53 |
| === sivang LIKES jdub tv | ||
| elmo | Kamion: well, a) I get apt-cdrom garbage on the primary console just before the "Use internet repositories" question, b) in syslog it's whining about not being able to find grub on /cdrom | 02:54 |
| elmo | Kamion: it's hard to test tho, 'cos I'm doing it on a machine with .5TB and the partitioner is dog slow for that | 02:54 |

| sivang | Kamion: hehe | 02:57 |

| rburton | oh dear god | 03:03 |
| sivang | rburton: join the fun :) | 03:03 |
| Kamion | elmo: or maybe not. anyway, the issue is that base-installer leaves /cdrom bind-mounted for the benefit of later udebs trying to apt-install stuff, but the process of running apt-setup - and hence apt-cdrom - in the first stage unmounts it | 03:04 |
| rburton | am i the only person who talks to himself continually when working alone then? | 03:04 |
| Treenaks | rburton: no | 03:04 |
| Kamion | I could possibly use apt-cdrom --no-mount if /cdrom is already mounted | 03:04 |
| Kamion | oh, hey, it does use --no-mount, but apt-setup EXPLICITLY UNMOUNTS /cdrom. fuckeurs. | 03:05 |
| elmo | Kamion: why's it only doing it in 'server' tho? | 03:06 |

| trulux | pitti: toolchain ready | 03:16 |
| pitti | new version? | 03:16 |
| pitti | ah | 03:16 |
| trulux | yeah | 03:16 |
| trulux | the definitive one | 03:16 |
| ogra | jdub ? | 03:16 |
| trulux | pitti: kernel based support for entropy gathering, I'm going to submit a patch for kernel mainline inclusion | 03:17 |
| ogra | jdub: missed your pills today ? | 03:17 |
| trulux | so | 03:17 |
| trulux | users relying in chrooted ubuntu installations wouldn't have trouble for getting /dev/urandom entropy | 03:17 |
| trulux | a new syscall is made available | 03:17 |
| trulux | http://pearls.tuxedo-es.org/patches/propolice-2.6.11-rc2.patch | 03:17 |
| trulux | the stack_smash_handler needs fixing, the other one *works neatly* | 03:18 |
| trulux | pitti: lemme cvs the latest libssp code | 03:18 |
| trulux | pitti: then I will try to upload a new package | 03:18 |
| trulux | pitti: is that possible ? | 03:18 |
| pitti | trulux: if you mean that you need a new libssp package, that's fine | 03:19 |
| pitti | trulux: libssp 0.2 is already in Debian experimental | 03:19 |
| trulux | ok | 03:20 |
| pitti | trulux: I did not yet upload it to Ubuntu since we can quickly sync it if we actually need it | 03:20 |
| trulux | ok | 03:20 |
| trulux | pitti: we are at 1.2.0 and 1.3.0 now | 03:20 |
| trulux | some asm magic needed for some things | 03:20 |
| pitti | trulux: do you have updated gcc packages ready? which could be included into Hoary universe? | 03:21 |
| pitti | trulux: i. e. gcc-ssp | 03:22 |
| elmo | T-Bone: ? | 03:22 |
| T-Bone | elmo: hi! | 03:22 |
| elmo | T-Bone: have you netbooted ia64 before? | 03:22 |
| trulux | pitti: I've talked it and we thought it was better to have gcc-hardened | 03:22 |
| trulux | pitti: for later improvement in userland gcc profiling | 03:22 |
| trulux | using porfiles and such | 03:22 |
| T-Bone | elmo: no. That's an issue i've been trying to avoid banging my head on :) | 03:22 |

| T-Bone | ah! | 03:26 |
| trulux | pitti: yeah, but the problem is that both PIE and SSP will be used in a near future depending on which profile the user wants, much like Gentoo does | 03:26 |
| elmo | Kamion: hmm, ok, well then I must be doing something else wrong | 03:26 |
| Kamion | elmo: I've got a fix for the server grub install issue; need to check how it interacts with archive-copier though | 03:26 |
| trulux | pitti: it will help us when maintaining it | 03:26 |
| elmo | Kamion: cool | 03:26 |
| trulux | pitti: so, no more headaches with wrappers or such | 03:26 |
| pitti | hm, ok | 03:26 |
| trulux | a global wrapper | 03:26 |
| trulux | profiled | 03:26 |
| Kamion | elmo: also got rid of the apt-cdrom spew at the same time, as a welcome side-effect | 03:26 |
| trulux | ssp? then gcc-hardened | 03:26 |
| elmo | Kamion: btw, I dunno if it's related, but when I forcibly (re)mounted /cdrom in the chroot, and continued the install, 'server' still tried to install all the normal desktop stuff | 03:27 |

| Kamion | the default i386/amd64 pxe configuration looks at /tftpboot/pxelinux.0, I thought, so it doesn't need to have the root directory set | 03:35 |
| T-Bone | elmo: there's no such trick with ia64 as those we have on mips WRT netbooting ? (port range, packet size and all the like...) | 03:35 |

| elmo | Kamion: oh, well, okay, what I'm actually doing is, using /var/lib/tftproot - the default inetd.conf entrie uses '-s /var/lib/tftproot' and I unpacked the netboot.tar.gz into there | 03:36 |
| Kamion | elmo: ah, ok | 03:36 |
| T-Bone | Kamion: very ouch indeed: the ooffice shit actually prevents any further package installation with apt-get install :P | 03:40 |
| Kamion | T-Bone: some more details than "ooffice shit" would be nice ;) the current CD infrastructure is meant to work around that problem, and if it doesn't manage to then I'd like to know why | 03:41 |

| jordi | yeah | 04:04 |
| jdub | rburton: yeah, work is being done on that | 04:04 |
| Mithrandir | Simira: I'll take a look after I've updated my hoary here. Right now, the network is icky enough as it is | 04:05 |
| jdub | i'm updating my hoary mirror atm ;) | 04:05 |
| jordi | so, what in Fluemotion is free and what isn't? | 04:05 |
| Simira | Mithrandir: it's ok, I'll have my cybersex with jdub as we're waiting | 04:05 |
| jdub | jordi: currently, it's all free | 04:05 |
| jdub | jordi: flumotion will be selling proprietary licensed plugins for like, windows media | 04:05 |
| Mithrandir | Simira: eyh! | 04:05 |
| jdub | jordi: and probably management tools and so on | 04:06 |
| jordi | jdub: oh, sounds cool | 04:06 |
| jdub | flumotion is very rad | 04:06 |
| jdub | not only because it's built on Beautiful Technology | 04:06 |
| jdub | but the architecture is so sensible | 04:06 |
| jdub | think... distributed gstreamer piplines | 04:06 |
| jdub | with smart components as well as gstreamer elements | 04:07 |
| jdub | all built on gstreamer, python and twisted :-) | 04:07 |
| jdub | much love! | 04:07 |
| sabdfl | Mithrandir: seems to work very well on x86 | 04:07 |
| rburton | jdub: i presume you have a local flumotion which grabs fottage and encoder, and sends it to the server for sharing | 04:08 |
| rburton | footage even | 04:08 |
| jdub | rburton: yep | 04:08 |
| Mithrandir | sabdfl: should work just as well on amd64. | 04:08 |
| jdub | rburton: see the admin sshot | 04:08 |
| jdub | rburton: capture and encoding is all done on my laptop | 04:08 |
| Kamion | T-Gone: oh, I see, it's the language-support stuff | 04:08 |
| jdub | rburton: it's shunted to lazarus, my desktop, which the firewall has DNAT rules to | 04:08 |
| Kamion | blah | 04:08 |
| jdub | rburton: the worker on node (in the USA) connects to the desktop | 04:08 |
| jordi | there must be something wrong with me: I have an ephy window in the background, with jdub's screenshot of Fluemotion Admin. And I can't help thinking every two minutes "damn, that's probably not translated at all, where can I get a .pot" | 04:09 |
| jdub | so one 180kbit/s upstream from here | 04:09 |

| jordi | well, funny thing is that "cercant" is the Catalan way | 04:10 |
| jdub | Mithrandir: just by setting up the flow | 04:10 |
| Kamion | T-Gone: looks like mozilla-firefox badly needs fixing on ia64 too | 04:10 |

| jordi | Go Amlie | 04:11 |
| jdub | Mithrandir: flumotion adds a flexible network configuration layer on top of gstreamer, basically | 04:11 |

| dredg | jdub: yes yes. let me live in my dreamland of multicast, ipv6 and an end to NAT :) | 04:12 |

| Kamion | Mithrandir: specifically, trying to bring the CD-ROM or the network up so that I can read a Kickstart file from it before language selection happens | 04:45 |
| Kamion | Mithrandir: udpkg -i ... but I might have to wget them. I want to use the existing retriever/anna infrastructure. | 04:46 |
| Kamion | Mithrandir: and the /var/lib/dpkg/status thing is because I want the retriever to run again later. I might be able to avoid that one, though. | 04:46 |
| smurfix | Kamion: The selector which first runs is kbd-chooser/method, which needs its default selection passed to it, which didn't happen when it was preset. | 04:49 |
| smurfix | Kamion: Testing now. | 04:49 |
| Kamion | smurfix: oh, ok | 04:49 |

| seb128 | just not on archive | 06:27 |
| Kamion | hello, debconf answer, where did you disappear to? | 06:27 |

| mdz | Kamion: filesystem.manifest should be sufficient | 06:28 |
| Kamion | I suppose it could check the manifest | 06:28 |
| lamont | seb128: were it not new, it should have arrived in the archive 20 minutes ago | 06:28 |

| dasenjo | How can I solve it ? | 07:42 |
| thom | remi`: it segfaults in update-mozilla-firefox-chrome | 07:42 |
| Kamion | dasenjo: wouldn't surprise me at all if jigdo were broken | 07:43 |
| remi` | thom, ok | 07:43 |
| T-Bone | doko: you around? | 07:43 |
| doko | yes | 07:43 |
| remi` | thom, so that would explain why firefox segfaults and not epiphany (no xul) | 07:43 |
| Kamion | dasenjo: that said, that file is still in the archive | 07:43 |
| dasenjo | Kamion, Is it not working ? I found a Manual Page in the wiki .. | 07:43 |
| Kamion | dasenjo: yeah, last touched by me ages ago :) | 07:44 |
| Kamion | dasenjo: I'll have a look, but probably not today; noted it in my todo list | 07:44 |
| T-Bone | doko: looks like we need lib32gcc1 on ia64 for ooo to work. AFAICS, it's part of gcc-4 package, of which only gcc-4.0-base seems available on hoary/ia64... | 07:44 |

| thom | remi`: yeah | 07:45 |
| Kamion | dasenjo: you'll have to look at where jigit is trying to fetch it from | 07:45 |
| dasenjo | how can I do that ? I was trying to edit the .jidgo file .. but it didn't work | 07:46 |
| thom | remi`: in segfaults in the javascript library | 07:46 |
| Kamion | dasenjo: running it as 'bash -x /usr/bin/jigit ...' rather than just 'jigit ...' may help | 07:46 |

| remi` | thom, i read on a report in mozilla's bugzilla that the js lib was not 64bit safe when manipulating doubles and floats | 07:48 |
| dasenjo_ | yes, I think so .. maybe a mirror hardcoded in the jidgo files .. | 07:48 |
| thom | remi`: i'm pretty sure we've fixed that - certainly we don't have that problem on amd64 | 07:49 |

| T-Bone | doko: ia32-libs are installed | 07:51 |
| T-Bone | doko: the issue is with ia32-libs-openoffice.org: | 07:52 |
| T-Bone | ia32-libs-openoffice.org: Depends: lib32gcc1 (>= 3.4.2-2ubuntu3) but it is not installable | 07:52 |
| doko | yes, but they don't have libgcc32, because on amd64 it's built as part of the biarch compiler. | 07:52 |
| T-Bone | yumm | 07:52 |
| T-Bone | doko: ok, so what would be the best thing to do, bearing in mind we want something suitable for the release... | 07:52 |
| thom | mdz: seeds and ubuntu-meta done | 07:54 |
| thom | mdz: home phone # on the wiki best for me... | 07:55 |
| remi` | thom, let me know when your build is done if you'd like extra testing | 07:55 |
| doko | both ways should work (re-adding gcc-4.0 to ia32-libs), or try to build with a cross compiler). The latter should work, but wasn't tested very well. | 07:56 |
| thom | it's building the debs now | 07:56 |

| T-Bone | doko: i don't understand what do you mean by 'adding gcc-4.0' to ia32-libs... | 08:03 |
| doko | the ia32-libs package contains all source and binary packages, and has to be built on an ia32 architecture. that's the way to include the source with binaries. | 08:04 |
| Kamion | mdz: up to you, it'll pull in a few more filesystem modules and such is about all | 08:04 |
| lamont_r | T-Bone: the ia32-libs package is a boatload of i386 binaries, packaged as source. it's almost the most evil thing I've seen this year. | 08:05 |

| jbailey | Kamion: It's due for a post {hoary,sarge} simplification pass, though. | 09:13 |
| lamont_r | jbailey: it was pretty then? :) | 09:13 |
| Kamion | elmo: hm, maybe I synced too early | 09:13 |
| jbailey | lamont_r: Well, it didn't use debhelper, and all the arch stuff was spread throughout with nested if statements. | 09:13 |

| Kamion | elmo: yeah, auckland is the one I have the private rsync access to | 09:17 |

| T-Bone | mdz: i beg your pardon. I'm asked to put up, I do | 09:58 |
| mdz | T-Bone: you won't take responsibility for leading the porting effort, but you want me to take responsibility for it as an officially supported architecture? | 09:59 |
| T-Bone | Kamion: because I'm not dealing with 'press releases' of any kind. I've posted around requesting testing already, some noise has been made... I can't summon the community toward that work if it's not willing to look at it | 09:59 |
| T-Bone | mdz: Since when should I take responsibility for the architecture? | 10:00 |
| T-Bone | who is officially responsible for x86, ppc and amd64? | 10:00 |
| Kamion | in fairness http://www.ubuntulinux.org/community/teams/ia64 says Thierry Simonnet is leading the port team; I haven't really seen much from him | 10:00 |
| T-Bone | mdz: bear in mind that i'm a 24-year-old student, and that I do opensource as a hobby. | 10:00 |
| Kamion | Mithrandir leads the amd64 team | 10:00 |
| mdz | T-Bone said that he would lead ia64, but then he withdrew and said he was leaving town, and Thierry Simonnet was supposed to take over. Thierry Simonnet didn't answer my emails about ia64 | 10:01 |
| T-Bone | Mithrandir works for Canonical, doesn't he? | 10:01 |
| mdz | no | 10:01 |
| T-Bone | mdz: i *never* said i would lead ia64 | 10:01 |
| T-Bone | mdz: because I *always* knew I couldn't do it | 10:01 |
| T-Bone | because I have a life aside Ubuntu | 10:02 |
| mdz | I'll have to dig up the email exchange | 10:02 |
| Kamion | i386, powerpc, and amd64 are all architectures with enough of an install base among all of the initial Ubuntu developers that there wasn't so much of a need for a port lead, though | 10:02 |
| T-Bone | a MS (and next year a PhD) can't be prepared out of a few hours of work you see... | 10:02 |
| mdz | you are not making any sense | 10:03 |
| T-Bone | i'm sorry that you can't understand me | 10:03 |
| T-Bone | let me recap: i started that work on a student project which was expected to have a beginning and an end. | 10:03 |
| Kamion | the point is not that we expect you in particular to have time to lead the port; it's fine that you only have a certain amount of time to contribute, and we're glad you're contributing that time | 10:03 |
| T-Bone | I decided to pursue my work on my freetime, as I often do on Open Source projects I involve myself in | 10:04 |
| Kamion | the issue is that somebody, or some group of people, does need to have enough time to take fairly consistent responsibility for driving the port forward | 10:04 |
| T-Bone | Kamion: that's definitely a sure thing. But I can't be that group | 10:04 |
| Kamion | and if the leader is spending most of his/her time delegating and making sure the minions :-) get the actual bulk of the work done, that's also fine | 10:05 |
| T-Bone | Kamion: and (as a freelance/studant), I don't hold the wires in the background, if you see what I mean | 10:05 |
| Kamion | ok, we're not saying *you* have to be | 10:05 |
| mdz | T-Bone: neither you nor anyone else is willing to take responsibility for it. this is why it is not ready. | 10:05 |
| T-Bone | mdz: maybe. But in no way I can be held responsible for this. | 10:06 |
| Kamion | this isn't a question of apportioning guilt | 10:06 |
| T-Bone | I fulfilled all the commitment I involved myself in, so far | 10:06 |
| T-Bone | +s | 10:06 |
| T-Bone | even those I knew it'd be very hard for me to cope with given some extraneous very troublesome events that happened to me | 10:07 |
| T-Bone | Kamion: that's ok. It feels like i'm being blamed for things I haven't done. | 10:07 |
| T-Bone | nobody seemed to have noticed that the burden is on *my* shoulders, if nobody else hack on ia64, btw :P | 10:09 |
| Kamion | I don't think anyone's blaming, and I don't think it's productive to think of it in terms of blame; it will only get everyone upset | 10:09 |
| T-Bone | to that extent i'm very thankful to you (kamion) and lamont for your valuable help | 10:09 |
| Kamion | including yourself :) | 10:09 |
| T-Bone | heh | 10:09 |
| === Einzelganger [~Einzelgan@cust.92.248.adsl.cistron.nl] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Kamion | actually, if nobody else hacks on ia64, the buck has a habit of stopping at Canonical by default; and there's only so much effort we can afford to put in | 10:10 |
| Einzelganger | Are there any tests (subscribed,spam) on sending mails to ubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com. I tried to send a (long) mail 2 days ago, but it didn't arrive. | 10:10 |
| Kamion | Einzelganger: it's moderated for non-subscribers | 10:11 |
| T-Bone | Kamion: 'the buck'? | 10:11 |
| Kamion | T-Bone: responsibility | 10:11 |
| remi` | if I may add my grain of salt to the ia64 conversation, i'm part of the students team working for/with thierry simonnet | 10:11 |
| T-Bone | Kamion: err, then I don't get what you said :P | 10:11 |
| mdz | T-Bone: I'm not blaming you; I'm trying to explain to you that official support for an architecture requires more than having things compile | 10:11 |
| Kamion | T-Bone: one of the things that was brought up in Mataro as a means of reducing the "but *you* get paid for it" resentment was to point out that people who're paid to hack also get told what to hack on, and thus basically end up doing the boring stuff that nobody else wants to do | 10:12 |
| Kamion | T-Bone: which tends to include picking up the pieces from things nobody else is actively supporting | 10:12 |
| Kamion | T-Bone: but we do have limited resources and we need to limit our exposure to that | 10:12 |
| T-Bone | roger that | 10:12 |
| Kamion | T-Bone: ("the buck stops here" is an English idiom, BTW, meaning roughly "the responsibility ends up here if nobody else assumes it") | 10:14 |
| T-Bone | but then if ia64 isn't part of Canonical's priority, maybe it shouldn't be ever considered for "support". Unless you're willing to rely on community support only, which can vary alot, as one can see... | 10:14 |
| Einzelganger | How often is it moderated, and do you get a message if/why something is refused ? (send 24 hours ago actually) ? | 10:14 |
| T-Bone | Kamion: ah ok :) | 10:14 |
| Kamion | Einzelganger: I think it's on a "when mako/jdub get around to it" basis ... | 10:14 |
| === lamont_r [~lamont@mesaradio41.customer.frii.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Kamion | T-Bone: the original intent was that it should be a largely community-supported port, certainly | 10:15 |
| T-Bone | Kamion: seems that the ia64 community is a rather peculiar one | 10:15 |
| lamont_r | moo | 10:15 |
| lamont_r | Kamion: much happier livecd | 10:15 |
| lamont_r | just placed one with someone I met in the coffee shop | 10:15 |
| Einzelganger | I'll try to send it again then with a reply-to which is the same as my subscribed email-adres. This moderation is that fairly new, I send this month and it seemed to be immediatly send ? | 10:16 |
| mdz | yes. Canonical contributed the necessary hardware, with the expectation of support from the community to drive the port | 10:16 |
| Kamion | with support from Canonical people where necessary (e.g. lamont's basically the only person with access to munge the buildds, I'm basically the only person with access to munge CD images, etc.) | 10:16 |
| mako | Einzelganger: i'll look at it | 10:16 |
| Einzelganger | mako, ah, ok | 10:17 |
| Kamion | Einzelganger: it's been moderated from day one AFAIK | 10:17 |
| Kamion | lamont_r: cool | 10:17 |
| elmo | Kamion: [and launchpad's meant to fix that] | 10:17 |
| Kamion | elmo: right | 10:17 |
| T-Bone | Kamion: yeah. As I understand it, if canonical has bought machines, I fail to see why Canonical's people (which are the only ones to access them) wouldn't have ia64 listed on their tasks... | 10:17 |
| Kamion | T-Bone: hence "where necessary"; most of the porting effort should not be resting on the shoulders of those with direct access to the buildds | 10:18 |
| T-Bone | as to the community support, it looks (to me) that the 'community' is waiting to have a "released" product to draw a "verdict" on it... | 10:19 |
| mdz | T-Bone: if the community is waiting for someone else to deliver a port, that is backwards | 10:19 |
| T-Bone | Kamion: sure. That's where I (tried to) do my part of the job | 10:19 |
| T-Bone | mdz: alas | 10:19 |
| Kamion | T-Bone: right | 10:20 |
| Kamion | anyway, gotta go, night all | 10:20 |
| T-Bone | see ya | 10:20 |
| mdz | in large part, the viability of a port will be determined by the willingness of the community to develop it | 10:20 |
| mdz | just as with other open source projects | 10:20 |
| T-Bone | sure | 10:20 |
| mdz | Kamion: night | 10:21 |
| T-Bone | the fact is that it looks like ia64 is more a 'market community' than a 'developers community', if i may say so | 10:21 |
| lamont_r | T-Bone: for the most part, canonical employees don't have access to the machines | 10:21 |
| lamont_r | for example, I'm the only one with logins on the buildd's. (well, modulo elmo-the-admin) | 10:22 |
| T-Bone | lamont_r: heh. So what are these machines for? | 10:22 |
| lamont_r | T-Bone: they're for building bits | 10:22 |
| dredg | so wht happens if both you and elmo get hit by busses? | 10:22 |
| mdz | they build packages. | 10:22 |
| lamont_r | dredg: then we get repalced | 10:23 |
| mdz | dredg: this is why we keep them in separate countries :-) | 10:23 |
| dredg | mdz: cunning :) | 10:23 |
| mdz | it would require a very large bus | 10:23 |
| lamont_r | dredg: I already got hit by one large truck. that's enough | 10:23 |
| mdz | or a far-reaching conspirace of buses | 10:23 |

| dredg | well, i did specify busses | 10:24 |
| lamont_r | dredg: it was, um, an experience. and I don't care to repeat it | 10:24 |
| T-Bone | lamont_r: how many machines does it take to 'build bits'? Or else, what kind of bits are you building? :} | 10:24 |
| lamont_r | there are 3 for redundancy | 10:24 |
| T-Bone | err | 10:24 |
| lamont_r | which is good for times when elmo is rebuilding the datacenter :-) | 10:24 |
| lamont_r | (right now I have 2 ia64 buildds...) | 10:25 |
| T-Bone | we're talking about redundancy for a yet unsupported arch? :} | 10:25 |
| T-Bone | ain't that backwards? :) | 10:25 |
| dredg | need any more admins? :) | 10:25 |
| elmo | t-bone: 3 buildds is our standard config | 10:26 |
| elmo | and non-$$$$ ia64 machines are not fast, 3 isn't excessive | 10:27 |
| elmo | (heck, the non-fast machines are $$$$, the fast ones are $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$) | 10:27 |
| ogra | heh | 10:27 |
| lamont_r | T-Bone: near as I can figure, mark was given to understand that there was a community out there, and that if we built it they would come. | 10:27 |
| lamont_r | in that respect, ia64 is going at it completely backwards | 10:27 |
| T-Bone | elmo: how's Debian ia64 buildd doing? :} | 10:27 |
| lamont_r | T-Bone: I don't think debian has purchased a single ia64 machine | 10:28 |
| elmo | T-Bone: the Debian ia64 buildd is a) one of 3 ia64 d.o machines, b) faster than ours, c) has less to do than ours | 10:29 |
| lamont_r | hell - _I_ have better ia64 machines at home than the data center has | 10:29 |
| T-Bone | elmo: less to do? | 10:29 |
| lamont_r | elmo: d) donated hardware | 10:29 |
| elmo | lamont_r: well, that's a prerequiste for "d.o machine",but yeah | 10:29 |
| === lamont_r must leave to get kids in about 5 minutes | ||
| lamont_r | elmo: yeah | 10:30 |
| T-Bone | anyway. I'm not making up the community. You (ex-)Debian folks know how it goes with Debian ia64 better than I do, I suppose? | 10:30 |
| elmo | T-Bone: debian doesn't do daily installer builds, debian doesn't do live cd builds, debian doesn't have all our uploads, we have (modulo freezes) almost all of Debian's uploads | 10:30 |
| ogra | lamont_r: wow, other ppl need 9 months for only one | 10:30 |
| lamont_r | ogra: yeah, I know I'm good. | 10:30 |
| T-Bone | elmo: fair enough | 10:30 |
| lamont_r | :-) | 10:30 |
| ogra | heh | 10:30 |
| elmo | T-Bone: debian doesn't do random crack like "rebuild the archive to test it builds" or "build with gcc $v+1", etc. | 10:31 |
| ogra | lamont_r: we all know that ;) | 10:31 |
| lamont_r | elmo: speaking of which.... We really need to do that before preview | 10:31 |
| T-Bone | in the end, what do you guys suggest? | 10:32 |
| T-Bone | am I to continue that work as a loner? | 10:32 |
| T-Bone | with no forseable release coming on the way? | 10:32 |
| elmo | lamont: dude, I'm in the data centre on a friday night, I'm going to be here until the transport goes away. I'm doing what I can | 10:32 |
| mdz | T-Bone: as i have said from the beginning, the port needs a lead to take responsibility for getting it into shape | 10:32 |
| mdz | T-Bone: no one said that you need to be that person, but someone does | 10:32 |
| lamont_r | elmo: I know - I was just giving you ammo for help with prioritization... :-) | 10:33 |
| mdz | we cannot "release first, find support resources later" | 10:33 |
| === kent [~madhawks@82.145.135.22] has left #ubuntu-devel ["Lmnar"] | ||
| mdz | if no one cares enough about the port to lead it, then that is a strong indicator that it may not be viable as an official port | 10:33 |
| T-Bone | mdz: still, there's one thing I fail to understand: in your scheme, what happens if the community decides to drop support? | 10:34 |
| mdz | T-Bone: if no one is willing to support it, then obviously it would need to be dropped | 10:34 |
| T-Bone | ok | 10:35 |
| T-Bone | well, as I see it, there's certainly a market place for a rock solid ia64 linux distribution | 10:35 |
| T-Bone | now, | 10:35 |
| elmo | Kamion: is there a daily for i386 with the 'server' stuff fixed, by any chance? | 10:36 |
| T-Bone | one would have to bear in mind that the ia64 market is rather specific (a niche market, most likely), and that its users are also specific (universities, computing farms, massive calculations etc), | 10:36 |
| T-Bone | now, if neither the manufacturers of the hardware, nor the makers of the distribution, nor the community at large are willing to take the bet and get involved, | 10:37 |
| T-Bone | well, everything is rather pointless... | 10:37 |
| === sto_ is now known as sto | ||
| mdz | the current 'makers of the distribution" have too much work to do already. of course, there is always a place for someone new to become an Ubuntu maintainer and lead a new port | 10:38 |
| mdz | but in this case, no one is willing | 10:38 |
| T-Bone | i don't have much insight in the debian ia64 community, but I wonder who's putting up there, and why they aren't interested in Ubuntu... | 10:39 |
| mdz | interest in Debian does not automatically imply interest in Ubuntu | 10:40 |
| mdz | perhaps they are happy working on Debian/ia64 | 10:40 |
| T-Bone | mdz: to state things a bit clearly, it boils down to "get the users involved or get the manufacturers to pay people to get involved", as I see it? | 10:43 |

| T-Bone | sabdfl: well, kamion and I seem to thikn that, put aside the openoffice and firefox bugs, the port is in rather good shape | 11:05 |
| sabdfl | ok | 11:05 |
| mdz | it seems to be installable now, and the live CD recently became functional | 11:05 |
| T-Bone | the openoffice issue is a matter of recompiling a package | 11:05 |
| sabdfl | those are both good news | 11:05 |
| sabdfl | is oo.o2 better? | 11:05 |
| T-Bone | the firefox one just came out last week and seem a bit trickier | 11:05 |
| mdz | my opinion is that ia64 could probably be made ready for hoary if someone with the necessary skills were able to devote a significant chunk of time per week to it | 11:07 |
| T-Bone | oo.o2 isn't available yet on ia64, afaict | 11:07 |
| mdz | as Tollef did for Warty/amd64 | 11:07 |
| T-Bone | mdz: that would certainly speed up things by several orders of magnitude | 11:07 |
| mdz | but it is by no means a sure thing | 11:08 |
| mdz | preview is less than three weeks away, and ia64 is still significantly behind the big three architectures | 11:08 |
| T-Bone | i do not agree on the "significantly' there | 11:08 |
| T-Bone | but it's only my opinion | 11:08 |
| sabdfl | T-Bone: can you quantify that - do we have a per-architecture ftbfs list? | 11:09 |
| T-Bone | afaict, everything works in Ubuntu-desktop except oo.o and firefox | 11:09 |
| mdz | there are bugs in bugzilla for FTBFS on ia64 | 11:10 |
| T-Bone | sabdfl: the only ftbfs i'm aware for ia64 is libbonobo, and that's a bug existing in debian as well | 11:10 |
| mdz | there are uninstallable packages on ia64; language-support-en was uninstallable the last time I looked, but that may have changed | 11:10 |
| mdz | that would have been a side effect of oo.o being completely missing | 11:10 |

| T-Bone | mdz: said otherwise: if you install ia32-libs and use the x86 installer it works | 11:15 |
| T-Bone | mdz: i'm doing that (had to dl the big installer) | 11:15 |
| mdz | T-Bone: what installer? | 11:15 |
| T-Bone | mdz: that's what i've been told by debian folks | 11:15 |
| mdz | the one from upstream? | 11:15 |
| T-Bone | mdz: the official one | 11:15 |
| T-Bone | yeah | 11:15 |

| T-Bone | mdz: not at all. What I'm saying is that you're noticing a lack of leadership, and I'm just asking you to *state* it on the m-l | 11:42 |
| T-Bone | (if you don't want to state it to Thierry directly) | 11:42 |
| ogra | T-Bone: who should support it ? if it has this stamp if there is no team to do so | 11:43 |
| mdz | T-Bone: I already told you that I _did_ state this to Thierry directly | 11:43 |
| T-Bone | I'm saying that I can't be the one making such a claim, and one of the reasons i can't do that is that I have *no authority* to do so, while *you* have | 11:43 |
| T-Bone | mdz: two months ago. Maybe it's time to let the community know about that? | 11:43 |
| tseng | why cant anyone on the team acknowledge a lack a leadership? | 11:44 |
| Simira | do one need authority to request work on a part of Ubuntu? | 11:44 |
| mdz | T-Bone: you, as someone working on the ia64 port, surely know first-hand whether the port leader is effective | 11:44 |
| T-Bone | tseng: maybe because all people involved in the (very small at that point) team have some external relationships with the leader? | 11:44 |
| T-Bone | tseng: you know, that human factor... | 11:44 |
| tseng | oh, so its a personal issue? | 11:45 |
| mdz | T-Bone: at the time that the discussion was happening in November/December, you were unavailable, and now you have reappeared and are demanding an official ia64 port | 11:45 |
| T-Bone | mdz: for christ sake, can't you understand? | 11:45 |
| tseng | you hadnt mentioned that before that I've seen | 11:45 |
| T-Bone | mdz: thierry is 40, i'm 24. That's a point. I owe him everything I know about quite a lot of things. I can't shoot him back | 11:45 |
| T-Bone | is that clear enough? | 11:45 |
| sabdfl | aj: "is your memory tight, are they blinken, de lights, are you sorry... we failed... to port?" | 11:46 |
| sabdfl | guys, calm down | 11:46 |
| T-Bone | mdz: i'm not demanding anything, please stop making me say things I don't | 11:46 |

| sabdfl | T-Bone: is thierry at his desk these days? | 11:46 |
| T-Bone | i'm demanding for an overview | 11:46 |
| sabdfl | T-Bone: do you think you have the skills to get the final bits done, if you had an incentive? | 11:46 |
| T-Bone | sabdfl: from 8 to 16 CET he should be yes | 11:46 |
| sabdfl | T-Bone: is he a full time teacher? | 11:47 |
| T-Bone | sabdfl: not within a reasonable timeframe if i have to acquire some extranous knowledge i don't have off-hand | 11:47 |
| sabdfl | i suspect the issue is that Thierry was not expecting to be as hands-on as our other porting leads have been | 11:48 |
| sabdfl | T-Bone: do you know someone with the necessary skills? | 11:48 |
| T-Bone | sabdfl: he's not a teacher. He should be reachable from 8 to 11:30 and then from 12 to 16, I suspect | 11:48 |
| mdz | sabdfl: I was very clear about my expectations in email, and he acknowledged them | 11:48 |

| mdz | #1 on the list was to respond to ia64 bugs | 11:48 |
| mdz | and as far as I can tell, no one other than lamont and I have responded to a single such bug | 11:49 |
| T-Bone | sabdfl: the oo.o issue is a packaging one Mithrandir seems to know about. The firefox bug I could probably try to track down, but then it's not skills again, it's a matter of time | 11:49 |
| sabdfl | firefox-on-64-bit is not trivial | 11:50 |
| sabdfl | it's hard code | 11:50 |
| T-Bone | true | 11:50 |
| sabdfl | is everything else building fine? | 11:50 |
| T-Bone | sabdfl: it seems so. Lamont wasn't complaining about any particular FTBFS | 11:50 |
| T-Bone | (except the libbonobo seb128 just fixed) | 11:50 |
| T-Bone | sabdfl: i'm working on ubuntu at nights from 19 to 01 and on weekends from friday noon to sunday night almost fulltime (except when I take a break with my GF, who has proved to be rather comprehensive lately :}) | 11:51 |
| T-Bone | still, i'm not very inclined to screw up all my free time just for the fun of it :-> | 11:52 |
| sabdfl | T-Bone: is there anything you can think that i can do to help ia64 happen? | 11:52 |

| T-Bone | sabdfl: well, any progress on the cloning machine? :) | 11:54 |
| sabdfl | waht what what? | 11:54 |
| sabdfl | aj... shtoom? | 11:54 |
| T-Bone | sabdfl: afaict (but it's always difficult to predict how long a bug will take to be fixed), | 11:55 |
| T-Bone | oo.o might be fixed by the end of this week end if i can get some input from mithrandir in that time frame. | 11:55 |
| T-Bone | fixed == packaged/built/tested/uploaded (assuming no undercover bug) | 11:56 |
| sabdfl | Mithrandir: if oo.o2 can be made to build on amd64, it should build nicely on ia64 too, right? | 11:56 |
| T-Bone | the firefox issue, i cna't tell yet | 11:56 |
| sabdfl | firefox is just not designed for 64bit architectures | 11:56 |
| ogra | T-Bone: Mithrandir is at FOSDEM this weekend..... | 11:56 |
| sabdfl | it's a deep deep problem apparently | 11:56 |
| T-Bone | sabdfl: i think so. How would you cope with that? | 11:56 |
| T-Bone | sabdfl: mozilla works fine OTOH | 11:57 |
| sabdfl | oh... | 11:57 |
| sabdfl | seriously/ | 11:57 |
| sabdfl | ? | 11:57 |
| T-Bone | seriously | 11:57 |
| sabdfl | maybe i'm mistaken then | 11:57 |
| T-Bone | epiphany seems to as well | 11:57 |
| T-Bone | afaict, firefox was working fairly well until last week | 11:57 |
| jordi | sabdfl: I'm sorry I haven't been able to reply to your request yet. It's hard to get an OK from the People At The Top | 11:57 |
| Simira | ogra: yes, please tell him I miss him already, when you see him :) | 11:57 |
| jordi | sabdfl: dunno if you spoke to carlos. I will know on Monday morning | 11:58 |
| ogra | Simira: i'll do :) | 11:58 |
| sabdfl | jordi: that's ok, i really appreciate your being willing to trek to london to help us make rosetta rock | 11:59 |
| AndyR | are many of you going to fosdem? | 11:59 |
| T-Bone | sabdfl: given i'm single-threaded so to speak, I can focus on one problem at a time. Depending on what you'd like i can investigate either oo.o or firefox this weekend | 11:59 |
| ogra | i'll go only on sunday... | 11:59 |
| sabdfl | T-Bone: ok, i have the wrong end of the stick w.r.t. firefox then | 11:59 |
| sabdfl | i thought it was not doable at all | 11:59 |
| jordi | sabdfl: nod. hopefully. I'd be glad. | 11:59 |
| T-Bone | it should be | 11:59 |
| jordi | And now, it's pub time. | 11:59 |
| sabdfl | T-Bone: go for firefox, if it's a recent regression | 11:59 |
| jordi | laters | 11:59 |
| T-Bone | comparing between working and non working releases should help | 11:59 |
| sabdfl | cheers jordi | 12:00 |
| AndyR | quite a few from my local LUG going | 12:00 |
| T-Bone | sabdfl: will do. Luckily I hadn't planned to sleep tonight :} | 12:00 |
