[12:09] Dunno. Probably they are talking about this on some channels. [12:09] question where do ubuntu get their names for releases? [12:10] Riddell: I got that system preferences has some file conflicting with kcontrol [12:11] Riddell: plus when I launch it I get an empty window,only the bar, but show all is insensible. [12:12] cartel_: mark shuttleworth makes them up depending on his mood [12:12] motaboy: that'll be xdg menu strangeness, should be eaily fixable with some playing about [12:13] Riddell: do you have any hint? :D [12:14] motaboy: what's the conflicting file? [12:15] Riddell: /usr/share/applications/kde/kcmfontinst.desktop /usr/share/desktop-directories/kde-settings-system.directory /usr/share/desktop-directories/kde-settings-power.directory [12:18] so whats better.. arch or svn? [12:18] cartel_: baz [12:18] motaboy: does it work if you overwrite those files? [12:18] Riddell: bazaar? [12:18] cartel_: that's the baby [12:18] Riddell: can i install this on debian woody? [12:19] Riddell: no. I think the problem is in the xdg menu implementation [12:19] Riddell: Probably I have to generate some files from this ones? [12:19] motaboy: it's definatly worked fine for me before, but it took some shuffling around of the files, I assumed he would have fixed that by now [12:19] Riddell: installing now [12:19] I'll compile it and see what happens === motaboy reads the xdg specs. === cartel_ looks for a baz howto [12:22] is there an arch pserver? or it does everything over ssh? [12:26] cartel_: it can use webdav too [12:32] motaboy: are you going to restore that page or do you want me to do it? [12:32] Riddell: I'm unsure on how to proceed... [12:32] Riddell: do you have a copy of the page? [12:32] motaboy: nope, although somewhere in the 7000 e-mails in my inboxes are all the changes made to it since it started [12:33] hello gentlemen. [12:33] any idea what's up with the wiki? [12:33] Riddell: I have an unformatted version. Do you want that I send it to you ? [12:33] uniq: no :( [12:33] motaboy: yeah cool [12:35] Riddell: sent [12:42] It's getting late. Night All! [12:43] 'night [12:44] Riddell: quick q if I may: is there a quick way to resolve dependencies (and their versions etc) when making a .deb? Someone suggested pbuilder, but not quite sure if it should be used -- seems related to apt or the .deb src. [12:45] apokryphos: there's also sbuild that it's the one used by buildd [12:46] motaboy: cool; how do I use it? [12:46] apokryphos: I'm not very expert again [12:46] apokryphos: but I setted up a chrooted environment [12:46] Yup, just did that with pbuilder... [12:46] *for [12:46] apokryphos: then I launch "sbuild -v packagename.dsc" [12:47] apokryphos: but you can use also inside your root [12:47] motaboy: hmm, I'm trying to make a .deb from the package source (not the deb one), so that's what should be used? [12:47] apokryphos: and it will remove the packages that it has installed at the end [12:48] apokryphos: it will resolve and install the deps. [12:48] dsc is stuff from the deb src, isn't it? (just getting to grips). [12:48] apokryphos: yes [12:48] apokryphos: dsc is the description file of the source [12:49] Riddell: the "control" file in debian/ ? [12:50] (the one you get from dh_name) [12:50] *dh_make [12:51] motaboy: slightly confused :). Where is the .dsc, then? Or do I have to make one...? [12:52] apokryphos: is it a source file made by another one, or is it made by you? [12:52] apokryphos: debuild -S will make a .dsc as well as a .diff (and there should already be a .orig as well) [12:52] yup, got the .orgi.tar.gz so far [12:53] *orig [12:53] apokryphos: Depends: ${shlibs:Depends} will magically add the correct depends for things which need C/C++ libraries [12:54] Riddell: to clarify, I should just run Debuild -S in the source directory? [12:54] Riddell: Now I'll go bed. I'll try to understand the systempreferences problem tommorow. [12:54] CUAll. [12:54] motaboy: guid nicht [12:54] bye; thanks for the help :) [12:55] apokryphos: yes, debuild will make the .debs debuild -S will make the source (.diff/orig and .dsc) [12:55] apokryphos: i use a chroot, made by debootstrap, in which i build packages with debuid, or sometimes dpkg-buildpackage. [12:55] bah.. s/debiud/debuild === apokryphos first .deb build :P [12:57] and the shlibs goes in... ? The "depends" part in "control" file? [12:57] read the new maintainer guide :) [12:57] uniq: which one? Link? [12:57] apt-get install maint-guide [12:57] right [12:58] apokryphos: yes, Depends in control [12:58] apokryphos: what are you packaging? [12:58] there should be a template package to use [12:58] and maybe developers-reference too.. if you're patient. [12:58] krename :D [01:00] Riddell: what exactly would that be? :) [01:00] apokryphos: krename is a C++ program? [01:00] http://www.debian.org/doc/maint-guide/ [01:01] http://www.debian.org/doc/maint-guide/ch-first.en.html#s-dh_make [01:01] dh_make is the baby [01:02] Yeah, it's C++ [01:02] Yeah, was reading that guide... [01:09] Riddell: debuild -S seems to go well, but get an error with signing the changes: gpg: skipped `Francis Giannaros ': secret key not available [01:10] should I be using something else? [01:10] apokryphos: do you have a gpg key installed? [01:10] no ;) [01:10] that'll be it then [01:25] Not sure if I'm doing things in the right order here. Do I first configure all things in debian/, then debuild -S, then debuild? [01:27] arrgh, kdevelop doesnt support arch [01:28] apokryphos: sort out debian then if you want .debs use debuild and if you want source "packages" use debuild -S [01:29] :'( [01:45] gnite guys. [01:46] 'night [01:47] validate-posix-sh: warning; cannot verify correctness of "debian/xfree86-common.postrm" with ash; shell not available [01:47] stupid xorg === lamont would beat daniels with a shell, but THERE AREN'T ANY IN THE CHROOT [01:48] :-_ [02:00] Riddell: aren't man pages important? As far as I can see the guide seems to imply that I would have to write/edit the templates :-O [02:03] apokryphos: most programs are expected to come with their own man pages if they need them [02:03] apokryphos: but otherwise write your own (in docbook) and add the appropriate bits to rules [02:05] Riddell: sorry, that should have been "imported", not important, ergh. If the program has its respective man page, would that be pulled in automatically? [02:06] apokryphos: they'll be installed normally then you add them to the install file in debian/ like any other file [02:35] poor daniels [02:43] Riddell: did I miss something and it was built for only i386? In control it's specified "Architecture: any". [02:43] apokryphos: presumably you only built it on i386 [02:43] Can only build on the architecture you're on.. understandable. [02:46] apokryphos: that package works for me [02:46] cool :) [02:46] Riddell: shall I send any other stuff over? [02:46] apokryphos: add it to https://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/MOTUNewPackages [02:47] please be sure to tell me with any things that might need to be altered with it :P [02:47] Ok, sure. [02:47] apokryphos: include a link to .deb and sour [02:47] apokryphos: include a link to .deb and sources [02:47] Riddell: the tar.gz or original tar.bz2? [02:48] apokryphos: the .orig .diff and .dsc [02:48] Ok; no problem. [02:49] apokryphos: you need to name the orig in the style of krecipes_0.7.1.orig.tar.gz [02:49] apokryphos: then run debuild -S and it'll make the .diff and dsc [02:51] right; just remove the evil 1 [02:52] Though, Riddell, I do already have a .diff and dsc [02:52] I followed the guide and ended up using dpkg-buildpackage [02:52] debuild just calls dpkg-buildpackages, but it checks dependencies first which is handy [02:53] if you don't have a .orig then the .diff contains everything, which is not the way to do it [02:53] I have both. Just had to rename krename_3.0.3.orig.tar.gz1 [02:55] debuild refuses to build with an orig.tar.gz there [02:55] what does it say? [02:56] dpkg-source: failure: unable to create `krename_3.0.3.orig.tar.gz.tmp-nest': File exists [02:57] apokryphos: .orig is in directory above the source? [02:57] apokryphos: if krename_3.0.3.orig.tar.gz.tmp-nest exists then remove it and run debuild again [02:58] ok [02:59] Successfully signed dsc and changes files [03:00] groovy [03:09] Riddell: that process seemed to lose the orig.. [03:09] apokryphos: it deleted it? [03:09] Yes [03:10] very strange [03:10] well slap whatever you have on a server and I'll take a keek [03:10] Is it perhaps down to the fact that I changed the name? Took off that 1 [03:11] don't see any reason for a 1 being there [03:11] heh. Ok, uploading [03:16] Riddell: http://www.youmortals.com/stuff/ubuntu/krename/ Sorry for the hassle -- really appreciate this. :) [03:22] dpkg-source: cannot represent change to krename_3.0.3.orig.tar.gz1: binary file contents changed [03:22] something funny going on there [03:24] apokryphos: you have a file called krename_3.0.3.orig.tar.gz1 inside your source directory [03:24] that's not right [03:25] Argh [03:25] I might have actually moved it there when trying to rename [03:27] the level of conversation in #kubuntu is starting to tend towards that of #ubuntu :) [03:27] still no desktop flame wars yet [03:28] It's actually partly my fault [03:28] the idiot in there (Gangster') is an "acuintence" of mine [03:28] found out I use IRC and here he is. Ergh. [03:29] :) [03:32] Riddell: but I should be able to still use the orig there, eh? Does the debuild -S alter it at all? [03:32] apokryphos: put the orig in the directory above the source [03:32] debuild -S won't alter the orig [03:32] but it will use it [03:33] so I better rebuild... [03:34] yep [03:34] apokryphos: the version number should be 3.0.3-0ubuntu1 (and actually should be 3.0.3-0ubuntu0.1 etc until it's ready to upload) [03:36] Darn; should have remembered that. For the guys at MOTU, then, I should leave as ubuntu0.1, and I guess they can alter? [03:37] I guess have I have to do the dpkg-buildpackages again, then. :) [03:37] yep [03:37] not too much loss as the debuild -S returned errors: i.e. gunzip: stdin: not in gzip format [03:39] is it gzip or did you just rename from bz2? [03:40] No idea what it's talking about with regard to gzip; don't see any gzip too. Never did rename the tar.bz2.. [03:41] how did you make the .orig file? [03:43] hm, now wondering if that came in earlier when experimenting a bit [03:44] well you want to make it by bunzip2ing the .bz2 and gzipping it and renaming to follow the correct pattern [03:44] Pretty sure it was built with the dpkg-buildpackage though.. [03:45] .orig isn't build by anything, it's the origional (or as close as you can get it) [03:45] I'm off to bed, #ubuntu-motu has people if you need help [03:46] add the package to https://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/MOTUNewPackages and we'll try and find people to review [03:46] ok, thanks for all the help :) [03:54] amu, haggai: don't support either of you registered #kubuntu or #kubuntu-devel?

[06:44] Riddell: were there previous errors during the installation? that question only shows up in expert mode (errors can drop you back to expert mode) [06:45] Riddell: any particular category in the seed? [06:45] ("don't care" is an acceptable answer) [06:46] Kamion: next to kaudiocreator in the seed (which will be in kdemultimedia) [06:47] Kamion: it complained that my partitions weren't set up right [06:48] right, that would do it [06:48] Riddell: seed changed [06:52] Kamion: thanks === cmf [~lou@adsl-213-249-162-11.karoo.KCOM.COM] has joined #kubuntu-devel === motaboy [~motaboy@host212-41.pool80182.interbusiness.it] has joined #kubuntu-devel [07:15] Hi all! [07:16] hello. [07:18] hi [08:03] haggai: what's the plan with adding updates-from-cvs patches? [08:04] haggai: there's a few changes I'd like to make after doing this fresh install so I could add them as I do those [08:08] Riddell: I looked at the updates, and there are rather a lot [08:09] haggai: do you think they're likely to cause trouble? [08:09] Riddell: I think there is a good chance they will in places [08:09] maybe we should just do it for kde-i18n and try and do a kde 3.4.1 in hoary-updates [08:10] Riddell: it is difficult to tell. Obviously they are all supposed to be bug fixes but there are a lot of backports that could be not very well tested [08:10] usually the patches backported to the KDE_3_4_BRANCH are only bug fixes [08:10] motaboy: usually :) [08:10] motaboy: have you actually looked at the commits? I know they are supposed to be fixes but the quantity is scary, and they are not all obvious what they are doing [08:11] haggai: I always keep an eye on kde-cvs ml [08:11] motaboy: I think we have a good chance to introduce a new bug and not have time for it to surface before the release [08:11] haggai: and the backports are not so much [08:11] haggai: yeah. [08:12] Riddell: yeah I think so, much as I know this strategy will mean we ship with some bugs that could have been fixed [08:12] haggai: IMHO that before a release only very annoying bugs should be fixed [08:12] motaboy: I agree [08:12] Riddell: the kde-i18n changes are so big the diff is > 450Mb. I think we should just make a new tar.gz [08:13] Riddell: something like 3.4.0+cvsyyyymmdd [08:13] haggai: I'm sorry. I didn't had much time for that annoying konqueror crash [08:13] haggai: I wrote some things in the bug. [08:14] haggai: but It's hard to me to find the real cause. [08:14] motaboy: yes, thanks for your research. That bug is being hard to track down [08:14] haggai: I'd like to report it upstream. [08:14] motaboy: please do [08:15] haggai: ok. maybe the developers of that part will solve it in 1 second. :D [08:15] motaboy: heh :) [08:49] heh.. check out http://pippin.gimp.org/view/?http://pippin.gimp.org/gallery/panorama/gjovik_gard.jpg in firefox.. and then in konqueror.. notice a difference? :) === LeeJunFan [junfan@64-186-37-120.skycon.net] has joined #kubuntu-devel === lamont_r [~lamont@m010f36d0.tmodns.net] has joined #kubuntu-devel [10:06] haggai, amu: are we releasing on Wednesday or Friday? [10:09] release is same day like ubuntu ... Friday, but a "Friday release" isnt good, i prefer Monday [10:11] what's bad about Friday? [10:12] Friday sounds better than Wednesday [10:15] most (normal) people go Friday into weekend. If they return at Monday, the News isnt fresh.With gnoppix i release all time Monday, you get more more NEWS, compared to Friday [10:16] we could just do it tonight, trump ubuntu :) [10:45] heh >-) === lamont_r [~lamont@m010f36d0.tmodns.net] has left #kubuntu-devel ["Leaving"] [10:53] finally.. got the wiki to work.. had to change my passowrd (?).. to be able to add/change anything.. [11:07] amu: libmad as a build depends? can you do that? [11:08] amu: and is cdrdao moving into main? [11:10] asked haggai about it, till libmad is not on the cd ... [11:10] and cdrdao was: 7877 see comment #8 from pitti [11:12] Riddell: sorry. are you talking about k3b mp3 plugins? [11:14] motaboy: talking about the k3b amu just uploaded to hoary [11:14] libmad is in main, didn't know that [11:14] Riddell: amu said for amarok [11:15] well I don't have a CD burner so I'm trusting that it'll all work :) [11:15] motaboy: said what for amarok? [11:16] Riddell: probably I didn't understood but talking about k3b-mp3 amu noticed that libmad is in main an said that it's here for amarok [11:17] oh I see [11:17] so everything should be sorted. groovy [11:17] Riddell: but I cannot seed libmad as a build dep of amarok...
