mdzogra: do you think you could do the xpdf-utils/poppler thing?12:01
pittimdz, elmo: if kdpf is the last package holding xpdf, then it's worth the trouble of converting kpdf IMHO12:01
mdzpitti: it is12:01
Nafalloogra: it did. but that was before cxx. anyway I'll try again now :-)12:01
ogramdz, which xpdf-utils/poppler thing ? i didnt follow12:01
wasabi_So I was thinking. dhclient.conf should be configured to send his own hostname to the dhcp server by default.12:01
dholbachjnc: when do you get that message?12:01
pittiogra: creating a poppler-utils package which contains the xpdf-utils tools ported to libpoppler12:01
Nafallowasabi: ++ :-)12:02
pittiogra: I already did pdftops, but we also need pdfinfo, and we should port the other tools, too (and send them back to upstream)12:02
ograpitti, what involves this "porting" ?12:02
ograC ?12:02
jncdholbach: i got that when i tried to start serpentine.   after rm -fr ~/.serpentine;  it works again12:02
dholbachC++ for poppler, i think :)12:02
pittiogra: take <tool>.c, rip it out of xpdf-utils, and hack on it until it compiles with libpoppler-dev :-)12:02
ograergh12:02
ograproting C to C++ ?12:03
mdzelmo: if this works out and we can move it back, will it require a special elmo dance again?12:03
mdzogra: they are both C++12:03
ograargl...12:03
dholbachjnc: i don't get that funky message12:03
wasabi_I guess that would be properly done by dhclient.conf having a send-default-host-name option12:03
jncwtf.  it's burning the CD now12:03
=== jnc blinks
jncogra: false alarm maybe12:03
jnci didn't change anything12:04
jncoooooh12:04
jncg-v-m12:04
ograyep12:04
jncogra: so ... that's a bug eh?12:04
mdzogra: if it's not something you feel confident about, no problem12:04
ograjnc, in g-v-m12:04
mdzwe ought to ask Riddell12:04
mdzpitti: can you talk to Riddell about it?  your time zones are compatible12:04
jncoh.  i would have thought a bug in serpentine12:05
elmomdz: yes, sorry12:05
ogramdz, do i have time to ecide until tomorrow ? 12:05
jnci mean, GnomeBaker works fine with g-v-m running12:05
ogradecide even12:05
fabbionenight everybody12:05
ograjnc, might be, but it doesnt use libnautilus-burn12:05
mdzogra: it's a small thing and I just want to get it done so that we can be rid of xpdf again12:05
jncah12:05
dholbachbye fabbione 12:06
pittiogra: maybe we can do some cow trading? I do the poppler stuff (I already know it a bit now) and you help me with the postgresql stuff? :-)12:06
ogramdz, i know, but i have to decide if i actually want to learn C++12:06
pittimdz: sure, will do12:06
mdzogra: if you would have to learn C++ in order to do it, it's easier for someone else to look at it, don't worry about it12:06
mdzRiddell should be able to do it12:06
ogramdz, i'm ok with C and some OO langs so it should be a good task to learn it :)12:07
pittimdz: creating a minimal poppler-utils with just pdftops and pdfinto is a matter of ~ 1.5 hours12:07
mdzpitti: yes, but you have too much work already, remember? ;-)12:07
pittiogra: ok, let's discuss this tomorrow with Riddell12:07
ograyep12:07
pittimdz: -> that's why I proposed the cowtrading :-)12:07
mdzwhat a delightful package name: libxml-libxml-perl12:07
dholbach:)12:07
pittilet's talk tomorrow12:08
dholbachpitti: i think ogra already said yes :)12:08
dholbachpitti: or did you invite somebody else to the pdf party? :)12:08
pittibah, gtimelog doesn't really work well if you cross midnight...12:08
ogramdz, vunz made clear he cant do the xscreensaver changes in breezy time, thats a huge bunch of work i have extra now....so i'm a bit careful about extra work currenly....12:08
pittidholbach: oh, my irc output is a bit shuffled here, 10 seconds latency (small net problem)12:09
dholbach*nod* ok12:09
pittiogra: fine for me if you want to do it :-)12:09
ograok12:09
elmomvo: huh, why python2.4-apt?12:09
mdzKamion: bugreporter-udeb was intentionally retired, right?12:10
elmohmm, nm12:10
mvoelmo: it's build now for both python2.3 and python2.412:11
pittigood night guys12:12
Nafallopitti: good night :-). see you tomorrow.12:12
mdzpitti: night12:12
Kamionmdz: yes12:13
Kamionmdz: replaced by installation-report and save-logs12:13
Nafallojnc: what did you do to be able to burn? now I got that bug instead :-P12:14
dholbachgood night everyone :)12:15
Nafallonight dholbach :-)12:16
Nafallojnc: nm. works.12:21
mdzerr, KDE doesn't require gnupg2 anymore?12:23
mdzwe went through all of that business for hoary just to have it go away?12:23
elmokde deps seem to be in massive flux12:23
mdzleaving it alone for now12:24
ograNafallo, ??12:24
mdzI did a bunch of obvious stuff12:24
ograNafallo, what was it ?12:24
mdztrying to get a handle on the set of packages which pitti will need to review in order to sync up12:24
Nafalloogra: seems I had to kill g-v-m.12:25
ograNafallo, :/12:26
Nafalloogra: that shouldn't be the correct approach though ;-)12:26
ogranope12:26
mdzelmo: how do you calculate the reverse-depends stuff in anastacia?12:26
ograbut i was suspecting its g-v-m12:26
=== LeeJunFan [junfan@s64-186-37-120.skycon.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel
wasabi_Heh.12:27
wasabi_If you select N/A in the Ubuntu device database creation thing for sound, the next page says "Video" "did you hear the text sound?" and offers no forward button or controls of any type.12:28
Nafalloogra: ehm... will be nice to see if this disk works. the bar didn't move since it started writing in record speed. just fixated.12:29
ajmitchwasabi_: file bug :)12:29
ograNafallo, tell me if it worked then....12:29
Nafalloogra: works.12:29
ogragreat...12:29
ograanothe bug to fix12:29
Nafalloogra: but an ugly bug ;-)12:29
elmomdz: it's just looking at germinate 'all' output12:30
mdzelmo: ah, that explains why it's lying then12:31
Kamionlying where?12:32
mdzogra: could you fix elementtree to stop building python2.2 packages?  it's trying to pull python2.2 into main12:33
mdzKamion: in anastacia output12:33
mdzKamion: it says it wants dialog because of alsa-utils, but it's an OR'd dep with whiptail, so it's actually something else12:33
=== mvo goes to bed now
Kamionah, ORed deps occasionally confuse germinate yes12:33
mdzKamion: I think it's probably doing the right thing, just choosing an unintuitive package to list as the reason12:34
ogramdz, oops, how could that get past the python transition ?12:34
elmomdz: hum, that could be my fault12:34
elmoI had hints for germinate, and recently updated to 2005 germinate and may have lost the hints, lemme check12:34
mdzdialog                                    | dialog                          | alsa-utils                               | Santiago Vila <sanvila@debian.org>                                        |          180578 |            104812:35
elmohmm, nope12:35
mdzrdepends is unintelligible for the same reason12:35
ogramdz, working on it12:35
mdza ton of stuff depends on dialog | whiptail12:35
mdzogra: thanks12:35
Kamionmdz: reason selection is often dodgy; I could probably try to make it pick the first non-ORed dep it encounters12:37
elmokamion; the problem is, given a or b, if b is already in main, it should favour b12:38
elmoand currently doesn't AFAICS12:38
mdzKamion: I don't think it's worth it; doing the right thing seems Very Hard, and picking the first non-ORed dep doesn't sound much better than the status quo12:38
Kamiongerminate has no idea what's already in main12:38
elmoKamion: eh, "is already in it's idea of main" (i.e. 'all')12:39
Kamionespecially not when running in the archive configuration where it just gets a single Packages file12:39
mdzKamion: I would like to know what's going on in this particular case, though. it's starting to look like germinate is doing the wrong thing, actually12:39
mdzthere are only 15 packages which depend on dialog-but-not-whiptail, and they're all in universe12:40
Kamionelmo: it's encountering dialog | whiptail before it's had a reason to explicitly select whiptail12:40
elmokamion: oh, right12:40
=== elmo goes back to sleep
Kamionseeding whiptail would fix that12:40
mdzKamion: does it matter which seeD?12:40
mdzdoes it have to be minimal (where the dep on alsa-utils is coming from), or can it be supported?12:41
KamionI think supported would do, but let me do some experiments to test that12:41
elmogerminate's begging for a test suite ;)12:41
elmo[he says helpfully] 12:41
Kamiongerminate will spot that it can promote whiptail from an outer seed to satisfy the dep12:42
=== Kamion introduces elmo to the Ubuntu seeds
elmoin the same way the ubuntu archive is the test suite for katie?  good call :P12:43
Kamionit's like WORKSFORME, only WORKSFORYOU12:43
KamionI have lots of directories scattered around in ~/src/ubuntu/germinate/ called 'pre' and 'post'12:44
Kamion+? Unknown dependency dialog by defoma12:48
Kamion+? Nothing to choose to satisfy defoma12:48
Kamionhmm, it doesn't entirely like that12:48
KamionI'll dig12:48
Kamionduh, it helps to run against main,restricted,universe,multiverse not just main,restricted. spethial12:54
sabdflkamion, the CoC suggests you should be sensitive to retards even when referring to yourself12:56
diamondsabdfl: nice -)12:57
sabdflah. he's ignoring trolls. sigh.01:00
Kamionsabdfl: heh :-)01:00
Kamionnah, I was just hunting down the libstdc++ porting howto for somebody on -users01:01
sabdflwhat's he porting too?01:01
Kamionfrom libstdc++2.10 (pre-standard) to anything vaguely current01:01
sabdflbtw, a mate of mine is trying to install hoary on a mini-mac, do we have any success stories on that?01:01
Kamionwell, pre-current-standard anyway01:02
Kamionsabdfl: hmm, not that I know of, I think full support may need > 2.6.10 since it's pretty recent01:02
sabdflhis name's richard braine (really) and i pointed him in your direction01:02
Kamionthe "buy benh a mini-mac" campaign on debian-powerpc was after we froze, I think01:02
elmodoes he have a friend called pinky?01:02
sabdflthat would be me01:02
sabdflon bald days01:03
Kamionsabdfl: yeah, I saw him on #-meeting, but he left before I got back; I'll mail him01:03
sabdflcool, thanks01:04
sabdflapparently it installed to console by xorg's not working, so it's not a totaly disaster01:04

dokoKamion,mdz,jbailey: the reason of the buildability of OOo2 in hoary (and not in breezy) is the addition of gjdoc as a java-gcj-compat dependency. that one sucks in antlr, and then kaffe and sablevm01:31
wasabi_hi01:32
wasabi_I think antlr is fixable. In fact I had thought I fixed it.01:32
mdzBuild-Depends: debhelper (>= 4), kaffe, fastjar, classpath, jikes-classpath (>=01:33
mdz2:0.12-1), autotools-dev, gcj-3.4, libgcj5-dev01:33

wasabigcj is awefully tiny.04:04
kentwasabi, perhaps change it to "all in one dvd" ;)04:10

Kamionthe one-CD thing is really non-negotiable04:15
Kamionif OOo2 doesn't fit, we get to (a) trim it down (b) throw out other stuff (c) bin it :-)04:16
wasabiThe one CD thing has many benefits.04:17

mdzjbailey: yeah, got that working, now only mount is causing me trouble04:37
mdzit mounts, but apparently not all of the options make it to the kernel04:37
mdzdoing a similar mount later, with util-linux mount, does the right thing04:37
jbaileyUgh. =(04:37
=== wasabi wondering what new super-cool features are on the horizon if ya'll are messing with nfsroot
mdzjbailey: if I set BUSYBOX=y, will that use busybox instead of uclibc's tools?04:37
jbaileyCould easily be a klibc bug then.  I haven't explored all of that.04:37
mdzwasabi: ThinClientIntegration, for one04:37
jbaileymdz: No, the only thing it does is call busybox if you drop to a shell (add break to the kernel command line)04:38
jbaileyI didn't want behaviour to change just because you wanted a sane shell for debugging.04:38

mdzto a shell04:39
mdzby hacking up /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/nfs04:39
mdzwhat I really want is to let it mount an NFS root fs as normal, and then run a hook later which can set up the unionfs04:39
jbaileyCool.  Will you email me your nfs stuff?  I'll hack in a script.  I tried an import earlier and wound up filing a bug on baz.04:39
mdzjbailey: the hacking up was entirely thin-client specific except for two things04:40
mdz1. mkdir /tmp04:40
mdz2. . /tmp/net-${DEVICE}.conf04:40
mdzbut I'll send you a copy so that you can get an idea of my needs04:40
jbaileyShould the unionfs be set before init is called?04:41
mdzjbailey: unless we want to go back to using pivot_root, yes04:41
jbailey'k04:41
mdzinit needs to run within the unionfs root04:42
jbaileyOkay.  I wasn't sure, since many filesystems mount readonly anyway.04:42
jbaileyroot filesystems, rather.04:42
mdzwell, the unionfs is actually a separate filesystem, so we need to run inside it04:43
jbaileyOkay.04:44
jbaileyWill the nfs script you send include the options you need passed in?  I can check the klibc nfsmount code at the same time.04:44

Kamionadmin/debconf_1.4.50ubuntu1: Dep-Wait by buildd+vernadsky [important:out-of-date] 04:45
mdzI was just going to test that hypothesis on a real system using klibc mount, but it doesn't run04:45
Kamion  Dependencies: libqt-perl (>= libqt-perl_3.008-1.3build1)04:45
Kamionlamont: that version looks bogus04:45
mdzoh, it expects to find a klibc loader in /lib04:45
jbaileymdz: They're not real ELF executables, that's why I didn't stuff them in the path.  It needs the klibc library in /lib04:46
mdzjbailey: is there a trick I can use to get them to run, or do I need to mess with /lib?04:47
jbaileymdz: If you copy the library into /lib they should run.04:47

manulitoHi, im a 25 year old cs-student from sweden, have some short questions about how to join a team, anyone have a few minutes to spare ?04:56
bob2just ask your question04:57
bob2(s)04:57
manulitoim planing to join some opensource devel-team after the summer, just wanna know what skills are needed and what i should improve on during the summer04:57
manulitohave some extra time to read/learn, and wanna get some pointers on what skills are important :>04:58
mdzthere is some sketchy stuff in there04:58
mdz        if (newlen >= extra->alloc_size) {04:59
mdz                char *new;04:59
mdz                new = realloc(extra->str, newlen + 1);  /* +1 for NUL */04:59
mdz                if (!new)04:59
mdz                        return;04:59
mdz                extra->end += new - extra->str;04:59
mdz"new - extra->str" where "new"  is the return value of realloc and extra->str is some other pointer?04:59
bob2manulito: depends on what you want to work on05:00
danielsoh, creative05:00
danielsextra->str was the original pointer05:00
mdzmanulito: it depends on what sort of projects you'd like to work on.  C programming and Python programming are both useful05:00
bob2people generally work on things they care about05:00
danielsso it's the delta of the length (newlen - oldlen)05:00
mdzhow do you figure?05:00
mdzrealloc is allowed to return you a pointer someplace far away in memory if it feels like it05:00
mdzthat may work if it never ever moves05:01
dilingerwow05:01
dilingermdz: what are you looking at/05:01
mdzdilinger: klibc05:01
dilingercute05:02
dilingerdoesn't extra->str already have the +1 for \0?05:02
mdzit makes me want to die05:02
dilingerand why can't extra->end += newlen - extra->alloc_size?05:02
dilingerand yes, if realloc moves it.. extra->end is no longer valid, i would gueess05:03
mdzdilinger: don't ask me; look at the previous snippet I pasted too05:03
danielsmdz: hey, I'm just saying what the code is supposed to do, not what it necessarily actually does ;)05:03
mdzdaniels: I bet it does exactly that 99% of the time05:04
manulitobob2: last 3 years in school have been different types of courses in programming etc, tho i never written anything real, i have no clue were to start, how to take the step from schoolproject -> real project05:04
dilingeri assume the previous snippet just has a typo.  strcpy(++extra->end, s);05:04
mdzand then randomly falls over if it grows beyond some unpredictable length05:04
dilingerthe purpose would be to simply add a comma if there's something already there (extra->used_size != 0)05:04
jbaileymdz: The klibc realloc code might be dumb enough to just fail if it can't expand the code segment.05:04
mdzdilinger: I understand what it intends to do05:05
mdzbut it's buggy05:05
dilingerjbailey: nothing like writing code that depends on such a feature :)05:05
mdzin more than one place05:05
jbaileyFrightening behaviour to depend on, though.05:05
mdzsomebody remind me why we need yet another libc implementation?05:05
jbaileymdz: combination of size (not glibc), arch support (dietlibc) and licence (uclibc) IIRC.05:06
mdzI'm not entirely convinced by the size argument05:07
mdzyeah, glibc is huge05:07
mdzbut the stuff we're putting on top of it is *tiny*05:07
jbaileyWe don't have the very-small requirement, but this stuff is intended to ship with the kernel as a standard set of utilities to run for early userspace.05:08
manulitomdz: so improving my c knowledge is prehaps best way to start then?05:08
mdzmanulito: yes, in particular you could help me debug klibc's mount option parser :-)05:08

wasabiexciting.05:22
mdzdaniels: speaking of which, what's the plan wrt /usr/include/X11 vs. /usr/X11R6/include?05:22
mdzthere seems to be stuff in both places at the moment05:22
danielsmdz: right.  everything will eventually move to the former.05:22
danielsby 'eventually', I mean 'asap'05:22
mdzI had something ftbfs because it didn't -I/usr/X11R6/include; not sure if that's a common failure or not05:23
danielsit's reasonably common, yeah05:23
wasabiIt's nice to see all these long standing annoyances being fixed.05:24
danielsmost of them will go away when I've finished with xorg -21 and to -22, where I break out libX1105:24
wasabi(/usr/X11)05:24
danielsmeaning that Xlib.h moves to /usr/include/X11, which is responsible for 99% of those failures05:24
daniels(unfortunately, libX11 is also the most complicated library to transition, by far)05:24
mdzjbailey: ok, got it working05:29
mdzI fixed no less than 3 bugs in that 15-line function05:29
mdzjbailey: are you sure we want to entrust the health and safely of early userspace to this thing?05:29
jbaileymdz: That sounds way more fragile than I had expected it to be. =( 05:30
jbaileyMy tests had all revolved around booting.  the udev maintainer (greg kh, who also does the minor security update kernels) bundles it in his packages and such too.05:31
mdzunfortunately, that wasn't what was breaking unionfs05:32
mdzit's now getting all of the options I gave it, but it isn't quite working right yet05:32
mdzI can create files and delete files, and that all works properly05:33
mdzbut I can't clobber files05:33
jbaileyIs that likely to be a kernel problem or something still in the klibc utilities?05:39
mdzlikely to be a unionfs problem05:41
mdzor just me not understanding it properly, but I think i'm doing it right05:41
mdzjbailey: any reason why scripts/nfs uses $NFSROOT instead of the backward-compatible stuff that ipconfig helpfully provides?05:41
mdzyeah, I can reproduce the unionfs difficulty in a non-klibc setup as well05:43
jbaileyipconfig provides the NFSROOT variable?05:43
jbaileyFrom DHCP if available, I'm guessing?05:43
mdzjbailey: see dump_device_config05:45
jbaileyI'll paste that into gedit for tomorrow.  Angie and I are going through things to get ready to move.05:46
mdzI'm getting this bad feeling about unionfs05:47
mdzI wonder whether knoppix does something about this, or just ignores the problem05:47
mdzhmm, changing the nfs mount from read-only to read/write seems to fix it, odd05:49
mdzunfortunately, klibc's nfsmount doesn't let me specify -r or -o ro05:50

fabbionenope. it's in xc/includes/extensions/06:32

danielsbecause dpms.h gets built externally, and is only available from within /usr/include/X11/extensions :P06:32

Riddellpitti: porting pdfinfo to libpoppler sounds great11:03
pittiRiddell: so you could change the dependency to poppler-utils then11:04
pittiRiddell: alright; can you please coordinate this with ogra?11:04
Riddellso I have to teach ogra c++ then :)11:04

pittiRiddell: it's actually the xpdf code11:07
pittiRiddell: the libpoppler-dev package contains the xpdf headers11:07
pittiRiddell: there is a much nicer interface libpoppler-glib-dev11:07

Amaranthbefore i actaully implement this, does anyone think `ps -U $LOGNAME | grep kicker` is a bad way to see if you're running KDE?11:16
MithrandirAmaranth: yes, it's a terrible way, as I told you yesterday.11:17
Amaranthexplain?11:17
infinityAmaranth : Sounds prett dodgy to me.11:17
infinityAmaranth : I could be running kicker in a chroot under that username, running it on a different display (again, same username), or even debugging a private application which just happens to be called "kicker".11:18
MithrandirAmaranth: you can run multiple sessions at once.  You can't _know_ that the kicker you see is actually KDE's kicker.11:18
seb128pitti: if somebody start porting xpdf-utils to poppler please mail ploppler-list before11:19
AmaranthGot a better way?11:19
AmaranthIt's either this or fix kicker.11:19
MithrandirAmaranth: then fix kicker.11:19
pittiogra: see seb's comment ^ 11:19
AmaranthNo one will take my fix.11:19
AmaranthEven if I knew how.11:19
pittiseb128: right, so far I only did it for pdf2ps11:19
seb128pitti: I've asked on #evince, apparently nobody is working on this and they think that's cool, but better to mail11:19
MithrandirAmaranth: what problem are you trying to solve?11:19
AmaranthMithrandir: Ubuntu installs KDE's applications.menu as kde-applications.menu (what was the fd.o menu spec for again?) so if the user is running KDE and that file exists I need to use it.11:20
seb128pitti: k11:21
Mirvhi, will Ubuntu be present at Debconf here in Helsinki? if you are planning to come, I could add my "Ubuntu Finland" part somehow to it :) (mainly just some banner or so pointing to www.ubuntu-fi.org)11:21
MithrandirAmaranth: no, that's not the problem you're trying to solve.  What are you trying to do?11:22
infinityMirv : Many Ubuntuites will be there.11:22
AmaranthThat's the exact problem I'm trying to solve. It's for smeg, my menu editor.11:22
seb128Amaranth: you want to do a KDE editor now?11:22
seb128I don't think KDE guys will be interested by a pygtk menu editor11:23
Amaranthseb128: pyxdg developer uses KDE, others have requested it too11:23
Amarantheven as gtk it beats kmenuedit :)11:23
seb128bah11:23
MithrandirAmaranth: so you're trying to write a menu editor which should edit the KDE menu if the user is using KDE and GNOME otherwise?11:23
seb128you always have people asking for something11:23
AmaranthMithrandir: yeah11:23
seb128doesn't mean that's a good idea11:23
=== Seveas [~seveas@217.17.141.68] has joined #ubuntu-devel
Amaranthseb128: I thought it would be easy to implement.11:24
Amaranthseb128: And it is on non-Debian based distros.11:24
seb128??11:24
seb128the spec has nothing specific to Debian11:24
MithrandirAmaranth: have a "KDE menu editor" and a "GNOME menu editor" and make the menu editor DTRT depending on what it's called as and ask if it's called with neither.11:24
Amaranthno, debian and ubuntu don't follow the spec11:25
infinityAmaranth : And why not just give it command-line switched --kde and --gnome, and have it called differently from the two different desktops.  People calling menu editors from the command line would be a rare bunch.11:25
seb128Amaranth: GNOME follows it :)11:25
seb128but right, there is no way to follow the spec and have differents menus11:25
infinityAmaranth : Or, along the lines of Mithrandir's suggestion, call it ksmed and gsmeg, harlinked, and edit different menus depending on its image name.11:25
seb128Amaranth: how are other distro solving this? Same menu for GNOME and KDE?11:25
Amaranthseb128: appearently11:26
seb128I doubt of it11:26
Amaranthseb128: i've only been talking to gentoo guys11:26
Amaranththeir menus are applications.menu in KDE11:26
seb128ah ah11:26
Amaranthxdg list has an interesting solution11:26
Amaranthrequires a change to the spec, but it's better than what we have now11:26
Amaranthinfinity: I like that first idea.11:26
Amaranthwhat do you guys do for xfce? it seems to be using gnome's menus11:27
Amaranthwhat really sucks in that app developers who expect to be able to drop things in ~/.config/menus/applications-merged/ are going to be hurting on ubuntu11:28
mjg59Mm?11:28
mjg59The long-term goal is for everyone to be using the freedesktop menu standard, surely?11:29
Amaranthyeah11:29
Mithrandirthe whole idea of ~/.config is utterly crackful.11:29
mjg59Which would mean having the same menu for KDE and Gnome11:29
AmaranthIt would be easier if <Menu>s had OnlyShowIn options.11:29
seb128why?11:30
mjg59There's an equivilent11:30
AmaranthYou could have one applications.menu with all the info in it and still show different menus on different DEs.11:30
mjg59Though Gnome currently ignores it11:30
Amaranthgnome-menus ignores a lot of things11:30
Amaranthi found out the hard way that 2.10 didn't have support for <Layout>11:31
mjg59Someone should write a patch11:31
Amaranthi released smeg 0.7 and had people complaining :/11:31

pittifabbione: some day I have to test this01:29
fabbionepitti: you were talking about pgsql supporting clustering01:29
pittilooks sexy01:29
fabbionemy question is what kind of clustering does it support?01:29
Mithrandirfabbione: you have to reformat to change the number of nodes?01:29
pittierm, the postmaster itself doesn't really01:29
fabbioneif it can share the same db files between several pgsql instances 01:30
fabbionethan you really want ocfs2 in background01:30
pittithere are projects (like slony-1) that provide replication in clusters01:30
fabbioneMithrandir: it depends.. if you exceed the previous format.. yes afaik01:30
fabbioneMithrandir: but setting it to a higher number of nodes is always a good idea01:30
Mithrandirfabbione: why not always set it to INT_MAX?01:30
pittifabbione: you shouldn't share the files itself, if you need this you need a replication server, otherwise you will get locking issues01:31
fabbioneMithrandir: because each node takes quite a lot of space in the metadata01:31
fabbionepitti: ok..01:32

fabbioneso approx 32Mb for each node01:32

ograseb128, yes, as you regulary do ;)04:25
jncMicksa: mostly users will notice it with gaim application, when they are typing in say oowriter and someone messages them04:25
danielsBurgundavia: um, not terribly much, I'm afraid, unless you insert a whole bunch of debugging checkpoints into the server.  could just as easily be an actual hardware error ...04:25
Burgundaviadaniels, ouch, that is what I suspected. I have heard of other people having the issue. Just in FF though04:27

danielsKamion: right ... surely that should still be picking libXss.so, rather than libXss.a?06:18
Kamiondon't think so06:18
Kamionit should be possible to investigate on i386, because the same link line appears there06:18
Kamion           The linker searches a standard list of directories for the library,06:19

mantienagood evening ;)11:38
Kamionmdz: want to have a look at colin.watson@canonical.com--2005/casper--automount--0 ?11:38
Kamionmantiena: you too, archive available at http://people.ubuntu.com/~cjwatson/archives/colin.watson@canonical.com--2005/11:38
Kamionmdz: I'm not sure it's quite ready to be merged yet; it needs more testing, the issue of how to make them accessible from the desktop is still open, and it doesn't handle labels properly (the install CD side relies on partman for those)11:39
mdzKamion: what does the output from partconf/mountpoint look like?11:39
mdzI had thought it would use os-prober to come up with the labels11:40
Kamionit seemed to fit better in partconf to me11:40
Kamionit's kind of in an awkward intersection of functionality11:40
KamionI might move mountpoint and leave partconf-find-partitions where it is; not sure yet11:41
Kamionmdz: you give it device name, filesystem, and optional label; it prints out either nothing (don't automount this) or a mount point11:41
Kamionos-prober isn't ideal for labels because it doesn't link to parted and so can't extract those names11:42
mdzoh, so this is factored out of os-prober now?11:42
Kamionwe could decide we don't care11:42
Kamionit doesn't involve os-prober at all, for the moment11:42
Kamionos-prober has loads of infrastructure for poking around inside partitions that we simply don't need11:42
mdzif we're going to have a thing whose job it is to find labels for things, surely os-prober should use it11:42
Kamionhm, I suppose11:43
mantienaKamion: cool, I looked at this about a hour ago but didn't find anything new. It seems now there are code, which I need :)11:43
Kamionbut11:43
KamionI was trying to make the behaviour identical to that of pmount11:43
Kamionand I thought that used the partition name as label, and it's awkward to extract that from shell11:44
wasabi_Interesting. Somehow last night I uploaded a new antlr to main.11:44
KamionI suppose I could write a helper C script in partconf which extracts the label, and then move the rest of the stuff to os-prober?11:45
mantienaKamion: partconf 1.0.9 will be ok for casper-automount ?11:46
Kamionmantiena: that's what we're discussing11:46
Kamionmantiena: it will work, but it may not be the ideal strategy11:46
Kamionmantiena: I included dependencies for a good reason; look at them ;)11:47
pittinight everybody11:49
dholbachbye pitti11:49
Kamiondholbach: do I get a bug report about libgetargs-long-perl? :-)11:52
dholbachKamion: erm, bugreport?11:54
Kamiondholbach: I'm puzzled as to how you ran into a problem; it already build-depends on liblog-agent-perl, and the minimum version in question was uploaded to Debian in 200311:54
Kamiondholbach: I saw a change to a package I maintain in Debian on breezy-changes, and was wondering if I got a Debian bug report about it11:55
Kamion(since it didn't look Ubuntu-specific)11:55
dholbachKamion: the package tries to download and fails, it re-tries and re-tries until the buildd gets annoyed11:55
Kamiondholbach: but the build-depends change has no effect?11:55
dholbachKamion: lamont asked in #ubuntu-motu to please fix it11:56
KamionDepends: perl (>= 5.6.1), liblog-agent-perl11:56
Kamionoh, crap11:56
KamionDepends, not Build-Depends. :-)11:56
dholbachKamion: sorry, i didn't realize you were the maintainer11:56
Kamionoh, I'm not bothered, just generally suggesting that's the sort of thing we should be feeding back11:57
mantienaBtw, I got several complains about slow LiveCD startup after Lithuanian liveCD distribution was moved from Morphix to Ubuntu framework. I have some ideas how to speed up the liveCD boot up11:57
dholbachKamion: i normally do... excusez-moi :)11:58
Kamionnp :)11:58
Kamion(actually I probably had a rather quick trigger finger, should give you a chance to upload, have coffee, file bug, which is about the best I normally do ...)11:59
dholbachso you suggest filing bugs at bugs.d.o?12:00
mantienaKamion: could some jobs (for example detection of DHCP server) be done in backgound (parallely) during liveCD start up ?12:01
Kamionwhen it's something generally applicable that we fix, it's good for us to feed it back, q.v. debian-devel at the moment ;)12:01
wasabi_I need a buildd kick. "lucene" is hung up dep-wait. Dependency is "j2sdk1.4"12:01
Kamionmantiena: dhcp is hard12:01
