| allee | mjg59: and contribute of course | 01:21 |
| mjg59 | allee: It'll probably be by adding a new package, to begin with | 01:21 |

| mjg59 | allee: Bind machine scancodes to generic keycodes (using DMI to tell which set of scancodes to use) | 01:27 |

| mjg59 | Once we have the scancodes, everything else is easy | 01:34 |

| lifeless | pure selfinterest here | 01:38 |
| jbailey | lifeless: Does this guy IRC? I would usually have the person do some cleanups before I sponsor. | 01:38 |
| lifeless | you just Know that when I start using breezy I'll be looking for this to JustWork ;) | 01:39 |
| lifeless | jbailey: dunno, though he is responsive on email | 01:39 |
| lifeless | Brett Cundal <bcundal@cundal.net> | 01:39 |
| allee | mjg59: Sorry now I'm confused. "We need to know what pressing the key does" for me means: check showkeys output for scancode and label it with 'logical description". How is here dmi invovled? | 01:39 |
| lifeless | his package has been uploaded many times, just his regular sponsor has gone busy/awol | 01:39 |
| jbailey | lifeless: Did he ask you to sponsor this, or are we just snarfing it off his site? | 01:39 |
| lifeless | so I wouldn't anticipate significant issues with the packaging itself. | 01:40 |
| mjg59 | allee: On system boot, we need to use the DMI information to work out which scancodes to use on a given machine | 01:40 |
| lifeless | He asked me to help him find a sponsor | 01:40 |
| lifeless | he asked on debian-mentors *months* ago | 01:40 |
| mjg59 | Dells use one set of scancodes. HP use another. Acer use a third. | 01:40 |
| lifeless | jbailey: quoting: Sure... I just need a sponsor to upload the package. The package needs | 01:41 |
| lifeless | to be looked at for packaging errors and whatnot, to see whether it's | 01:41 |
| lifeless | suitable for inclusion in Debian... Since it's already in unstable and | 01:41 |
| lifeless | the changes are fairly minor since the last upload, I would expect it | 01:41 |
| lifeless | to be not much work. | 01:41 |
| allee | mjg59: Ah so DMI is only used to find out producer/model and that get's acociated with a scancodes config-file | 01:42 |
| mjg59 | allee: Exactly | 01:42 |
| jbailey | lifeless: So far not much packaging work. He has example scripts lying around that he doesn't need. He renames the packaging without really saying why he does it. | 01:42 |
| mjg59 | Once we have the scancodes and the dmi information, we can ensure that on boot that stuff works properly | 01:42 |
| === jbailey tries a build. | ||
| lamont__ | mjg59: any ideas on how well suspend to {disk,ram} works on the HP NC6000? | 01:43 |
| lifeless | jbailey: ok. want me to give it a once over first ? (I am interested in getting gst updated which is why my fingers are involved) | 01:43 |
| jbailey | Nah, I've already gone over the packaging, verified that it's the same as upstream source, yada yada. Now I'm just seeing if it builds. =) | 01:44 |

| jbailey | lifeless: My Debian machine is an ia64. =) It's currently FTBFS on that arch... | 01:44 |

| mjg59 | (not sure why) | 01:47 |
| mkde | hi mjg59, i was saying the other day about some of my laptop keys not working, you said to look in dmesg, i didn't find em | 01:47 |
| === thom -> bed | ||
| mjg59 | mkde: What sort of laptop? | 01:49 |
| mkde | mjg59, its a compaq presario 2100 | 01:49 |
| mjg59 | mkde: Ok. It's possible that it needs some magic. | 01:49 |
| mkde | mjg59, i'm all ears | 01:50 |
| mkde | mjg59, i feel sure that once upon a time the mute button used to work with linux | 01:50 |
| mjg59 | mkde: I'm afraid I don't have any old Compaq hardware, and it's basically been killed since the HP merger, so it's hard to get test kit | 01:51 |
| mkde | mjg59, ok | 01:51 |
| mkde | mjg59, is it likely to be a kernel or a xorg problem? | 01:52 |
| mjg59 | mkde: Kernel | 01:52 |
| mjg59 | mkde: Well, kernel-ish. X knows nothing about the keyboard. | 01:52 |
| allee | mkde: Mute: what does not work: sound still on or xev show nothing/no keysym or showkeys gives nothing? | 01:52 |
| mkde | nothing on xev | 01:53 |
| mjg59 | If pressing it shows nothing in xev and nothing in the kernel dmesg, then something needs to be done in the kernel | 01:53 |
| mkde | to be fair, even the hotkeys that work don't come up in dmesg | 01:53 |
| mkde | its strange that some work and others not | 01:53 |
| allee | mkde: and on console: gives showkeys any output? | 01:53 |
| mkde | allee, what should I do to test? | 01:54 |
| mkde | mjg59, so is it worth filing a bug upstream or just leave it you think? | 01:54 |
| allee | mkde: ALT-CRTL-F1 login and run showkeys, then press not-working keys | 01:54 |
| mjg59 | allee: It's not really a bug, it's a missing feature | 01:55 |
| mkde | is "showkey" the same thing? | 01:55 |
| mjg59 | Without the hardware, it's hard to tell what's going on | 01:55 |
| mjg59 | s/allee/mdke/ | 01:55 |
| mkde | mjg59, ok | 01:55 |
| mkde | mjg59, if the hardware isn't made anymore i guess its not really worth us working on it | 01:55 |
| allee | mkde: ops, yes showkey | 01:55 |
| mkde | allee, gives nothing | 01:56 |
| mjg59 | mdke: Well, it's something I'll look at if I can find any information about it, or get hold of some of the hardware | 01:56 |
| mjg59 | But at the moment, I'm concentrating on current stuff | 01:57 |
| allee | mkde: now I'm stuck :( | 01:57 |
| mkde | mjg59, thats fine | 01:57 |
| mkde | mjg59, if you ever have a old hardware fest I can bring this laptop along ;) | 01:57 |
| allee | mkde: did you check linux-for-laptops archive for infos about keys for your model already? | 01:57 |
| mkde | allee, will do now | 01:58 |

| mdz | chmod -R g+w /home/warthogs/archives/kubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com | 03:00 |
| mdz | to fix the immediate problem so that I can commit | 03:00 |
| Riddell | mdz: done | 03:01 |
| mdz | Riddell: much better, thanks | 03:01 |
| mdz | for the more permanent fix, make sure ~/.bashrc specifies umask 002 | 03:02 |
| Riddell | mdz: do I have to set the umask somewhere so it stays like that? | 03:02 |
| Riddell | yep :) | 03:02 |
| mdz | though I thought that was the default | 03:02 |
| Riddell | mdz: it seems to be the default, but I had checked it out onto my laptop where the umask isn't set for group writable | 03:03 |
| mdz | oh, that might explain why this has happened to a few others as well | 03:03 |
| mdz | if the local permissions affect it | 03:03 |
| mdz | but I don't see why that would be | 03:03 |
| mdz | bob2: is that possible? | 03:04 |
| Riddell | I'll put a note on the seed page on the wiki | 03:04 |
| bob2 | if you check it out, and the umask changes the permissions on-disk, they can get checked back in | 03:06 |
| mdz | bob2: in this case, the issue is permissions on files in the archive itself (like ++revision-lock) | 03:07 |

| mdz | if antlr builds, that should unblock gjdoc, which should unblock junit, which should unblock (I think) libant1.6-java, which unblocks the world | 03:10 |
| mdz | then we can move the lot into main and have free java apps in main | 03:10 |

| wasabi | 'ant' in ubuntu produces libant1.6-java, 'libant1.6-java' in Debian produces libant1.6-java, in main | 03:32 |

| gentoon | so you don't want people to test it yet | 03:42 |

| wasabi | Hmm. Actually I thought doko fixed this. | 03:51 |
| wasabi | doko, ping. Was java-gcj-compat updated to depend on ecj? | 03:51 |
| wasabi | infinity, it won't rebuild until I know what happened to the fix to java-gcj-compat, so don't retry it. | 03:52 |
| infinity | wasabi : It depends on ecj-bootstrap (the version we're trying to get installed right now) | ecj | 03:53 |
| wasabi | errr. | 03:53 |
| wasabi | Oh I see. Heh. | 03:53 |
| infinity | So, should I dep-wait ant on ecj-bootstrap? :) | 03:54 |
| wasabi | I uploaded a temporary fix to Ant because I couldn't upload a real fix to java-gcj-compat (because it was in main) | 03:54 |
| wasabi | There should still be a valid ecj-bootstrap binary. | 03:54 |
| infinity | Not the version that java-gcj-compat currently depends on. :) | 03:54 |
| wasabi | OH. | 03:54 |
| wasabi | and then doko fixed java-gcj-compat with a bad version. ;) | 03:55 |
| infinity | (Not the new version of j-g-c anyway) | 03:55 |
| wasabi | So, I think where we're at is that j-g-c needs to be fixed, and I think doko was doing that. | 03:55 |
| mpt | mdz: I was told yesterday that the wiki spec for LaunchpadIntegration is wildly out of date now -- Who should I be pestering to update it? Apparently I'm supposed to be helping with the design | 03:55 |
| infinity | So, yeah. If you tell me it will all magically work when ecj-bootstrap is rescued from oblivion, I'll retry ant shortly. | 03:55 |
| wasabi | Java is so incestuest. | 03:55 |
| mdz | mpt: truthfully? sabdfl ;-) | 03:55 |
| mpt | ehhh | 03:56 |
| infinity | wasabi : Don't feel bad. Most big package sets are like this. Heck, even X build-depends on itself. | 03:56 |
| mdz | mpt: he has specified that he wants to add two items to the Help menu of applications which have a Help menu | 03:56 |
| mpt | mdz: That's what I suggested originally, and got shot down :-P | 03:56 |
| wasabi | We could fix j-g-c | 03:57 |
| wasabi | I just can't upload it, because it's in main now. | 03:57 |

| infinity | wasabi : S'what I said up there. <point> | 03:59 |

Who can I ask about that? | 03:59 |
| infinity | wasabi : It'll sort itself when our poor wayward ecj-bootstrap binary finds its way to the archive. | 03:59 |

| mdz | mpt: if you have already thought about it along those lines, feel free to update the spec accordingly | 04:01 |
| lifeless | mdz: re baz COTM in hoary ... | 04:01 |
| mpt | ok | 04:01 |
| wasabi | ecj-bootstrap was updated to correct a build failure (because of an update to gcj-4.0.1) | 04:02 |
| wasabi | And it was also synched with debian. | 04:02 |
| wasabi | The existing binary works. | 04:02 |
| mdz | mpt: regarding documentation, I don't know any more about that than you do, I expect. it'd be a yelp question, try seb128. he should be able to point you to someone who knows, if he doesn't | 04:02 |
| mpt | ok, thanks for your time mdz | 04:02 |
| lifeless | mdz: uhm, its your call really. as upstream I would advise against, because IMO there is a difference between 'latest stuff that is pipelining in ' and 'CRACKOFTHEMOMENT" | 04:02 |
| infinity | wasabi : Okay. Then we have a few source packages with needlessely inflated build-deps/deps. antlr is also waiting on that version, I think. | 04:02 |
| wasabi | Yeah, I believe doko did that on accedent. | 04:03 |
| infinity | mdz : Any sign of progress on that binary? | 04:03 |
| mdz | lifeless: can we get 'latest stuff that is pipelining in', then? currently our only options are COTM and releases | 04:03 |
| wasabi | Or maybe he didn't. I don't know. ;) | 04:03 |

| mdz | lifeless: ok, then scratch my previous request, and "can we please track the latest releases in breezy?" | 04:05 |
| lifeless | mdz: sure thing, love to. | 04:05 |
| lifeless | mdz: fabbione said that they sync via debian | 04:05 |
| infinity | wasabi : It'll kick off when ecj-bootstrap is actually installed. katie lies a bit when it says it's moved files to pool/... It actually means it's mapped them and scheduled them to be moved on the next cron.daily. | 04:05 |
| lifeless | mdz: but if you were to pull directly, that would reduce some latency | 04:05 |
| mdz | lifeless: debian has the same old version | 04:05 |
| wasabi | "daily"? | 04:06 |

| infinity | Huzzah. | 04:13 |
| infinity | wasabi : Kicking back ant now. | 04:13 |
| === wasabi prays | ||
| wasabi | I think what really caused all this problem is every package involved got updated, all at the same time. ;) | 04:13 |
| wasabi | And they all broke in some way | 04:14 |
| wasabi | And then got moved to main. | 04:14 |
| wasabi | Not in that order. | 04:14 |
| === infinity hopes that ant and antlr succeeding will be enough to trickle down and magically fix the whole chain. | ||
| infinity | wasabi : antlr doesn't need the new ant, does it? (Please say no, cause they just started building in the other order) | 04:16 |
| Amaranth | I think you guys are tackling more in the 6 months for breezy then red hat did for fedora core 4. :P | 04:16 |
| wasabi | hmmm. | 04:16 |
| wasabi | Shouldn't. ;) | 04:16 |
| infinity | Good. Looks like it was successful. | 04:16 |
| wasabi | I can't wait to see Eclipse build. ;) | 04:17 |
| wasabi | Oh, can you kick eclipse? | 04:17 |
| wasabi | It's dep waiting on j2sdk1.3 | 04:17 |
| infinity | wasabi : Do you have a list of packages waiting to be untangled? | 04:18 |
| infinity | (other than eclipse, which I'll smack around right now) | 04:18 |
| wasabi | No, I don't. | 04:18 |
| wasabi | I think we're pretty good off now. | 04:18 |
| calc | how is gnome 2.11 coming along, i noticed 2.11.3 should be out next week | 04:18 |
| === calc also notices there is no webpage other than on live.gnome.org about 2.11 eg gnome.org/start/2.11/ doesn't exist | ||
| calc | and no source tarballs for any 2.11 | 04:19 |
| wasabi | frick. i seem to have an unsolvable mess here on my hands. | 04:20 |
| wasabi | I am confident if I exit X it won't launch again. ;) | 04:20 |
| calc | yea X has been broken in various ways under hoary for several weeks | 04:21 |
| wasabi | breezy. | 04:21 |
| wasabi | X hasn't been broken in hoary has it? heh | 04:21 |
| calc | erm yea oops ;) | 04:21 |
| wasabi | ok, phew. | 04:21 |
| === calc can't remember what he is running :) | ||
| dooglus | I discovered today that 'grep' is broken in hoary | 04:21 |
| mdz | infinity: I want libant1.6-java, junit, libjaxp1.2-java and xerces-j | 04:21 |
| dooglus | is there any way to get it fixed officially? | 04:22 |
| mdz | dooglus: those are both pretty vague | 04:22 |
| infinity | dooglus : Define "broken"? | 04:22 |
| calc | from what i can tell the only two install bugs left are the xkbcomp and libxt issue | 04:22 |
| dooglus | infinity: it uses all available CPU for as long as you let it in some cases. it crashed my laptop 3 times today due to overheating. | 04:22 |
| dooglus | infinity: try this: | 04:22 |
| dooglus | yes | head -1000000 | LC_ALL=C grep . > /dev/null | 04:22 |
| wasabi | uh. | 04:23 |
| dooglus | it should run pretty quickly, right? | 04:23 |
| === bradb [~bradb@modemcable141.58-131-66.mc.videotron.ca] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| wasabi | no. | 04:23 |
| wasabi | yes never exits dude. | 04:23 |
| dooglus | wasabi: it does when the 'head' tells it to | 04:23 |
| infinity | dooglus : That's run a very fast infinite loop. | 04:23 |
| wasabi | head doens't tell it to. | 04:23 |
| wasabi | why would it? | 04:23 |
| wasabi | yes outputs forever. | 04:23 |
| Amaranth | whoa, why did no one tell me Alt+arrow reorders tabs in xchat? | 04:23 |
| wasabi | head buffers, waiting for the last 100000 lines | 04:23 |
| dooglus | head exits, which means the 'yes' gets a sigpipe | 04:23 |
| wasabi | which of course never get there, as yes never stops | 04:24 |
| dooglus | but that's not the point | 04:24 |
| wasabi | when does head exit? | 04:24 |
| dooglus | head -1 exits after printing one line... | 04:24 |
| wasabi | print the first N lines instead of the first 10; with the lead | 04:24 |
| wasabi | ing -, print all but the last N lines of each file | 04:24 |
| dooglus | try it: "yes | head -3" | 04:24 |
| dooglus | you'll see, it's not an infinite loop | 04:24 |
| Amaranth | wasabi: it doesn't infinite loop, i've tried it | 04:24 |
| infinity | wasabi : Erm, yeah. It does get a sigpipe. Duh. | 04:24 |
| wasabi | oh... | 04:24 |
| wasabi | heh. ;) | 04:24 |
| infinity | Anyhow. | 04:24 |
| dooglus | so anyway... of these 2 commands, the first works, very quickly, and the 2nd hangs, almost forever, eating all available CPU: | 04:25 |
| dooglus | yes | head -1000000 | LC_ALL=C grep . > /dev/null <- OK | 04:25 |
| dooglus | yes | head -1000000 | LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 grep . > /dev/null <- bad | 04:25 |
| dooglus | can you reproduce that on breezy too? | 04:25 |
| Amaranth | dooglus: so you've figured it out more? | 04:25 |
| Amaranth | nice | 04:25 |
| wasabi | java is eatting my mind | 04:25 |
| wasabi | for some reason i can't comprehend that right now | 04:25 |
| dooglus | Amaranth: it's a very old bug. It just didn't get fixed in ubuntu as far as I can tell | 04:26 |
| calc | wasabi: switch to mono? | 04:26 |
| infinity | dooglus : grep in UTF8 has always been slow as a dog, no? | 04:26 |
| Amaranth | using C took 0.5 real time, using en_US.UTF-8 took..well, it's still running | 04:26 |
| Amaranth | infinity: Either other distros cheat and set C or this got fixed somewhere. | 04:27 |
| mdz | dooglus: "grep is slow with UTF-8 locales" is not the same as "grep is broken" | 04:27 |
| dooglus | infinity: yes, but that's not the problem here either - the problem is that due to a bug in the grep code, the algorithm takes a time propertional to the *square* of the size of the input file. | 04:27 |
| mdz | at any rate, there's already a bug open about the performance issue | 04:27 |
| calc | istr something about locales and something being slow before ;) | 04:27 |
| dooglus | mdz: but it's stupidly slow - grep should be take linear time | 04:27 |
| dooglus | that's what's broken about it. | 04:27 |
| Amaranth | wow, en_US.UTF-8 is still running | 04:27 |
| calc | of course that isn't very helpful, i recall redhat had some performance issues when they switched to using utf8 | 04:27 |
| dooglus | Amaranth: it will run all year if you let it | 04:27 |
| Amaranth | red hat fixed them somehow | 04:27 |
| dooglus | I think I have a one line workaround. | 04:28 |
| Amaranth | as long as it doesn't cheat and set LC_ALL to C that's good | 04:28 |
| mdz | dooglus: https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1148 | 04:28 |
| dooglus | the problem at the moment is that for every match of every character, grep looks through the whole rest of the file to see which characters are multi-byte. | 04:28 |
| dooglus | that's where the O(n squared) comes from. | 04:29 |
| mdz | if you have further analysis that's not in that bug, please add comments there | 04:29 |
| mdz | infinity: yes, it's a very old problem | 04:29 |
| dooglus | mdz: that bug is badly out of date | 04:29 |
| infinity | dooglus : Please update it, then. | 04:30 |
| Amaranth | dooglus: congrats on figuring this out, was driving me nuts trying to understand it | 04:30 |
| dooglus | infinity: could I ask you though - how is this _supposed_ to work? | 04:30 |
| dooglus | it's a GNU application, but you get it from debian, and you also hack on it yourself. | 04:30 |
| dooglus | and the redhat are hacking on it too - how do it all work - or how _should_ it all work? | 04:31 |
| infinity | dooglus : We can fix it in breezy, push the changed to Debian, and the Debian maintainer will push the changes upstream. If anyone in that chain decides the changes suck, we'll just carry them ourselves. | 04:31 |
| dooglus | the fedora guys fixed it ages ago (see patch, here: http://cvs.fedora.redhat.com/viewcvs/devel/grep/grep-2.5.1-egf-speedup.patch ) | 04:31 |
| infinity | dooglus : Alternately, report the bug (and fix) to GNU, and we'll get the changes trickled down eventually. | 04:31 |
| dooglus | redhat released an advisory about it, over a year ago. but nothing happened to the GNU code | 04:32 |
| infinity | dooglus : Odds are that RedHat would have pushed their changes upstream already, so there's a fair chance the GNU maintainer decided it wasn't elegant/correct enough. That wouldn't necessarily stop us from carrying the patch, if it seems to work well enough and not cause regressions elsewhere. | 04:32 |
| dooglus | infinity: that's what I don't understand - the GNU guys have been sitting on the bug for over a year too, doing nothing - same as the ubuntu guys. | 04:32 |
| dooglus | here's the GNU bug: http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?func=detailitem&item_id=3803 | 04:33 |
| dooglus | as far as I can see there's no comment from the GNU people at all | 04:34 |
| dooglus | oh, my bad. that's March this year - so they've only sat on it for 3 months. | 04:34 |
| dooglus | Amaranth: did your grep finish yet? | 04:34 |
| Amaranth | dooglus: I quit it. | 04:35 |
| dooglus | is there anything useful I can do to help with breezy? I've got a lot of debugging experience and nothing better to do with my time... | 04:37 |

| jbailey | Or did you context switch? | 04:47 |

| mdz | infinity: ant meaning libant1.6-java? (we do have an entirely separate source package called ant) | 04:49 |
| wasabi | mdz libant1.6-java, the source package, is deprecated and should be removed. | 04:49 |
| mdz | wasabi: ... | 04:50 |
| mdz | I thought it was meant to supersede ant | 04:50 |
| mdz | openoffice.org2 build-depends on libant1.6-java | 04:50 |
| wasabi | No, exactly backwards. | 04:50 |
| mdz | we had ant before we had libant1.6-java | 04:50 |
| wasabi | source packages ant super ceeds source package libant1.6-java | 04:50 |
| infinity | mdz : libant1.6-java is built from "ant" | 04:50 |
| wasabi | source package ant produces BINARY package libant1.6-java | 04:50 |
| mdz | infinity: yes, but libant1.6-java produces a libant1.6-java binary package which is newer | 04:51 |
| wasabi | What? It does? | 04:51 |
| infinity | wasabi : Is anything on your system NOT crashing? (are you having hardware issues?) | 04:51 |
| mdz | so currently, libant1.6-java builds libant1.6-java in breezy | 04:51 |
| wasabi | not good. | 04:51 |
| wasabi | shouldn't do that. | 04:51 |
| wasabi | infinity: X issues. | 04:51 |
| infinity | mdz : Erm, no, ant should be newer.. 1.6.2-2ubuntu3 | 04:52 |
| infinity | mdz : Though, only barely. | 04:52 |
| mdz | hmm, did they swap again recently? | 04:52 |
| wasabi | libant1.6-java needs to be removed. I don't know how that happened. | 04:52 |
| mdz | I swear I recall someone (jbailey? doko?) telling me that we were intentionally superseding libant1.6-java with the libant1.6-java source package | 04:53 |
| wasabi | that was me actually. | 04:53 |
| wasabi | but that's not what I said | 04:53 |
| wasabi | few months ago I think. | 04:53 |
| mdz | yes, I see our conversation in March | 04:53 |
| wasabi | Heck I think Hoary's copy works. ;) | 04:53 |
| mdz | Mar 21 18:23:48 <mdz> then once the dust settles, you can request removal of libant1.6-java | 04:53 |
| === AndyFitz [~andy@wlanconf-nat-pool-brisbane.redhat.com] has left #ubuntu-devel [] | ||
| wasabi | Dust never settled, haha. | 04:54 |

| mdz | ...months pass...:-) | 04:54 |
| wasabi | Yeah, this is the dust right here. | 04:54 |
| mdz | well, if ant's libant1.6-java is newer now, we should be able to remove libant1.6-java source | 04:54 |
| mdz | that's sufficient settling | 04:54 |
| wasabi | It might not be newer, but it is "good enough". | 04:54 |
| mdz | or did ant not build until just now? | 04:54 |
| wasabi | We're going to have to maintain a fork of it until Debian adopts it. | 04:54 |
| mdz | newer meaning "higher version number" | 04:54 |
| wasabi | (sarge, blah blah blah) | 04:55 |
| infinity | mdz ant just built and uploaded. | 04:55 |
| infinity | Put a colon in there somewhere. | 04:55 |
| wasabi | I was totally hoping to avoid that. ;) | 04:55 |
| wasabi | They both come from the same upstream sources, so we can always just, upgrade to make it superceed properly. | 04:55 |
| mdz | I've requested that libant1.6-java be removed | 04:56 |
| mdz | then we can just continue tracking ant | 04:56 |
| infinity | Oh, FFS. | 04:57 |
| infinity | wasabi : ant needs a new upload. | 04:57 |
| wasabi | It's main now. ;) | 04:57 |

| bob2 | (in a few minutes) | 04:57 |
| infinity | wasabi : 1.6.2-2ubuntu3 is a lower version than 1.6.2-2.1 | 04:57 |
| mdz | germinate seems to be choosing libant1.6-java's libant1.6-java over ant's libant1.6-java | 04:58 |
| wasabi | Oh. Ya know. I sear back in the day I made an upgrade of libant1.6-java with a change log that clear said what was going on. | 04:58 |
| wasabi | I guess that must have been the crack. | 04:58 |
| mdz | infinity: isn't that what I was saying earlier? | 04:58 |
| infinity | mdz : Yes, and I either can't read or... Can't read. :) | 04:58 |
| wasabi | Debian made a NMU and that made it into Ubuntu. | 04:59 |
| === wasabi sigh. | ||
| infinity | wasabi : So, we definitely want ant over the libant1.6-java?... So, I should just upload an identical ant package with a bunped version number? :) | 04:59 |
| infinity | bumped, even. | 04:59 |
| wasabi | Well, then you won't have merged the Debian changes. | 04:59 |
| infinity | And then we need libant1.6-java blacklisted from autosyncs. | 04:59 |
| infinity | wasabi : Well, if you want to merge the stuff from -2 -> -2.1, let me know. :) | 05:00 |
| wasabi | I don't. Heck I can't right now. Can you upload a new copy, bumped version, to -2.1ubuntu0 or something silly. | 05:01 |
| wasabi | Actually I guess it doesn't matter. | 05:01 |
| wasabi | ubuntu1 | 05:01 |
| infinity | wasabi : The NMU was a 3-line patch. I can pull it into our ant package, if that's desireable. | 05:01 |

| infinity | mdz : junit is building right now. Checking on the others. | 06:22 |
| wasabi | classpath isn't really neccassary when using gcj | 06:23 |
| wasabi | Which we are doing. | 06:23 |
| wasabi | gcj includes a complete native classpath compilation. | 06:23 |
| Amaranth | nice | 06:24 |
| Amaranth | so breezy is getting native eclipse in main? | 06:24 |
| infinity | wasabi : xerces-j build-deps on classpath... | 06:24 |
| wasabi | Among other things. | 06:24 |
| wasabi | Does it? | 06:24 |
| wasabi | It probably needs to be fixed then. | 06:24 |
| Amaranth | rock | 06:24 |
| wasabi | What is xerces-j for? | 06:24 |
| Amaranth | mono in main, java things in main, this release is going to blow people away | 06:24 |
| infinity | wasabi : Heckifiknow. :) | 06:25 |
| Amaranth | it's an xml parser | 06:25 |
| wasabi | I've never had my hands on it. | 06:26 |
| wasabi | What depends on it? | 06:26 |
| infinity | mdz : Your list all looks ready exceit for junit which has just been uploaded. | 06:26 |
| Amaranth | libant1.5-java | 06:26 |
| wasabi | That is deprecated. | 06:26 |

| mdz | [Reverse-Build-Depends: libant1.6-java] | 06:27 |
| wasabi | Heh. | 06:27 |
| wasabi | I suspect that's the old ant package? | 06:27 |
| mdz | if ant doesn't use it, then we won't need it | 06:27 |
| mdz | that's the libant1.6-java source package | 06:27 |
| Amaranth | i'm looking at local stuff | 06:27 |
| wasabi | Yeah, the last update this thing had, other than what you did to it recently, was in 2002. | 06:27 |
| mdz | but ant uses it too | 06:27 |
| wasabi | does it. | 06:27 |
| mdz | oh, it uses xerces2 | 06:27 |
| mdz | from xerces2-j | 06:28 |
| wasabi | yeah. | 06:28 |
| wasabi | xerces-j i think was being dropped by Debian | 06:28 |
| wasabi | I remember hearing something about it | 06:28 |
| mdz | once everything is installed, I'll re-germinate and see how things look | 06:28 |
| mdz | hopefully germinate will choose ant's libant1.6-java now, and things should be clearer | 06:28 |

| Micksa | anyone care to help me out with a hoary PXE boot problem? | 06:49 |
| Micksa | breezy is working fine but not hoary | 06:49 |
| wasabi | mdz: the big X move is killing me. | 06:50 |
| wasabi | Thing won't even start. | 06:50 |
| mdz | http://people.ubuntu.com/~mdz/temp/java-main.txt | 06:50 |
| mdz | that's the dependency chain leading back from openoffice.org2 | 06:50 |
| mdz | ant seems to pull in a *lot* more stuff than libant1.6-java was | 06:51 |
| wasabi | Yeah, it does. | 06:51 |
| mdz | jlex at least needs fixing | 06:52 |
| wasabi | The old libant1.6-java was super minimal. | 06:52 |
| mdz | and libbsf-java | 06:52 |
| mdz | jlex pulls in kaffe, libbsf-java pulls in jython | 06:52 |
| wasabi | what program are you using to generate this? | 06:52 |
| mdz | anastacia | 06:52 |
| wasabi | jython should be fine. | 06:52 |
| mdz | it compares the current state of the archive to what germinate says it should be | 06:53 |
| wasabi | What's it pull in? | 06:53 |
| mdz | jython is way behind the times (python2.1); we don't want it | 06:53 |
| wasabi | I remember these two. | 06:53 |
| wasabi | Hmm. | 06:53 |
| wasabi | bsf might require it. | 06:53 |
| mdz | that would be most unfortunate | 06:53 |
| wasabi | bsf is the bean scripting framework. It is a generic scripting framework for Java. | 06:53 |
| mdz | someone was saying that jython was being updated for modern python | 06:53 |
| wasabi | It includes a number of scripting engines, javascript (rhino), and jython | 06:54 |
| wasabi | It might be disablable. | 06:54 |
| wasabi | I remember being on this road before. | 06:54 |
| mdz | why does javax-servletapi2.3 need bsf? | 06:54 |
| wasabi | Hmmm. Not sure. | 06:54 |
| mdz | that seems weird | 06:54 |
| wasabi | Yeah it does. | 06:54 |
| jblack | Is the netpbm / netpbm-free guy here, or somebody that knows a bit about those two packages? | 06:56 |
| mdz | I know a bit about them; best to just ask | 06:57 |
| infinity | Indeed, ask away. | 06:58 |
| jblack | Ok. We've already done an info file for "netpbm". Theres also a info file for "netpbm-free". There doesn't seem to be a netpbm-free package in ubuntu. | 06:58 |
| jblack | (though there is a netpbm) | 06:58 |
| infinity | netpbm-free is the source package. | 06:59 |
| jblack | It also has the same cvsroot and cvsmodule as netpbm. That means to me that its a duplicate. | 06:59 |
| infinity | The netpbm-free source package generates the netpbm binary package., | 06:59 |
| infinity | Is that the confusion? :) | 06:59 |
| wasabi | Wait. | 07:00 |
| wasabi | mdz, servlet2.3 doesn't depend on bsf that I can see. | 07:00 |
| mdz | hmm, germinate doesn't usually lie about these things | 07:00 |
| jblack | infinity: The confusion is that there's two info files that point to the same place. | 07:00 |
| mdz | I don't see it either | 07:01 |
| infinity | jblack : Well, there hasn't been a "ntpbm" source package since 1998... So, "netpbm-free" is the canonical version. | 07:02 |
| mdz | wasabi: oh, that's backwards | 07:02 |
| mdz | wasabi: it's bsf that build-deps on servlet2.3 | 07:02 |
| wasabi | That makes sense. | 07:02 |
| mdz | yes, much more so | 07:02 |
| mdz | is free-java-sdk a sane thing? I haven't seen it before | 07:03 |
| jblack | infinity: ?? Isn't the canonical package in ubuntu is called netpbm ? | 07:03 |
| wasabi | free-java-sdk is some stupid thing that the Debian guys are into. | 07:03 |
| wasabi | It's like java-gcj-compat, but it chooses a random JVM or something. | 07:03 |
| infinity | jblack : Not the source package, no. You do imports based on source package names, not binary, right? | 07:03 |
| wasabi | Because they don't want to discriminate. | 07:03 |
| mdz | infinity: yes | 07:03 |
| wasabi | random build deps, uh huh. | 07:03 |
| jblack | infinity: typically, we try to, yes. | 07:03 |
| infinity | jblack : apt-cache show netpbm, it's from the netpbm-free source. | 07:03 |
| mdz | it seems to be committed to sablevm at the moment | 07:03 |
| wasabi | oh? | 07:03 |
| mdz | Depends: jikes-sablevm, fastjar, sablevm, classpath-tools | 07:04 |
| wasabi | guess he won. ;) | 07:04 |
| wasabi | Gadek (teh sable guy) is very loud spoken. Hehe. | 07:04 |
| mdz | we currently have sablevm in main, though I don't recall why | 07:04 |
| wasabi | I'd discard free-java-sdk actually. | 07:04 |
| mdz | I think berkeley db or something build-deps on it | 07:04 |
| wasabi | And discard sable, and fix bdb to build on gcj, in the long run. | 07:04 |
| === mdz [~mdz@ca-studio-bsr1o-251.vnnyca.adelphia.net] has left #ubuntu-devel ["Client] | ||
| jblack | As it happens, I called it netpbm because ubuntu calls it netpbm, freshmeat calls it netpbm. | 07:05 |
| === mdz [~mdz@ca-studio-bsr1o-251.vnnyca.adelphia.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| mdz | yeah, db4.2 build-depends on sablevm | 07:05 |
| infinity | jblack : Ubuntu calls the source package netpbm-free, though (same as Debian) | 07:05 |
| mdz | sablevm AND gcj AND libgcj6-dev | 07:05 |
| jblack | I notice at freshmeat.net there's a program called "netpbm-free" that is a CLI-interfaced image creation and manipulation program. is that what you're thinking. | 07:05 |
| wasabi | Well, I think our idea is that we'll have one "official supported JVM" | 07:05 |
| wasabi | haha. | 07:05 |
| wasabi | Yeah, tons of Debian packages do that. | 07:05 |
| mdz | why? | 07:05 |
| wasabi | They build Java pieces with one JVM. | 07:05 |
| wasabi | Then build native versions with GCJ. | 07:05 |
| infinity | jblack : The source package could be named back, since there's no netpbm-nonfree anymore, but I doubt anyone cares enough to do it. :) | 07:05 |
| wasabi | The GCJ compiler traditionally SUCKS. | 07:05 |
| wasabi | It's not really usable for much. | 07:06 |
| jblack | also, sourceforge calls it netpbm, and the homepage calls it netpbm too. | 07:06 |
| wasabi | But we're using ECJ, which is supurb. | 07:06 |
| jblack | even the cvs module is netpbm. | 07:06 |
| mdz | jblack: it's always been netpbm upstream | 07:06 |
| mdz | jblack: but in Debian it was split into netpbm-free and netpbm-nonfree | 07:06 |
| infinity | jblack : Yes, it /IS/ netpbm. Our source package was just split back in 1998 to -free and -nonfree, because of GIF patents. | 07:06 |
| wasabi | Free Java is marred from years of having 10 VMs all at various levels of completion. | 07:06 |
| fabbione | that are actually expired btw | 07:07 |
| wasabi | Debian of course hilights that because all 10 VM developers are d-d's | 07:07 |
| infinity | jblack : They were reintegrated in 2004 (when the patent expired), but the source package is still called -free, for hysterical raisins (or sheer laziness of people who didn't want to push a new source through queue/NEW) | 07:07 |
| jblack | *click*. Ok. importd isn't going to be able to handle netpbm-free for you guys, because right now its dependant upon a different source for every product. | 07:07 |
| mdz | jblack: hmm? it should be fine, there is now a 1:1 correspondence between the netpbm-free source package and the netpbm product | 07:07 |
| wasabi | The kaffe fans always build with kaffe, the sable guys always use sable. A few people enjoy gcj. Some people use JamVM now too. | 07:07 |
| mdz | fun | 07:08 |
| wasabi | Each of those VMs include their own copy of classpath. | 07:08 |
| wasabi | So, then you have the Classpath + VM guys. | 07:08 |
| infinity | jblack : There is no netpbm source package at all, so as mdz says, there's a 1:1 mapping. | 07:08 |
| jblack | mdz: its there as "netpbm" as the upstream name (we're supposed to use upstream names) | 07:08 |
| wasabi | Who pick a VM, and build with the VM against the classpath package instead of hte included one. | 07:08 |
| wasabi | It's a real big mess. ;) | 07:08 |
| jblack | Oh, I getcha. You guys'll branch it. | 07:08 |
| mdz | jblack: at this point, now that netpbm-nonfree is gone, it's simply a matter of the source package being named differently from upstream | 07:09 |
| mdz | nothing more insidious than that | 07:09 |

| mdz | like what renamed? | 07:10 |
| mdz | wasabi: what do we do about classpath? | 07:10 |
| jblack | Never mind. | 07:10 |
| wasabi | We ignore it. | 07:10 |
| wasabi | And remove it from our deps. | 07:10 |
| jblack | Thanks for the time guys | 07:11 |
| wasabi | The plan is to support one official VM. At this point it's GCJ. | 07:11 |
| mdz | and gcj includes its own copy of classpath? | 07:11 |
| wasabi | Yes. | 07:11 |
| mdz | ok, so in that case we also have the issue that libgnujaf-java and libjaxp1.2-java depend on classpath | 07:11 |
| wasabi | So, all these uploads of Java crud I was doing a few months ago, basically I was just converting packages to gcj. | 07:11 |
| mdz | and there are still more | 07:12 |
| wasabi | Apparently. | 07:12 |
| wasabi | I didn't have the cool tool you're using. ;) | 07:12 |
| mdz | we ought to publish its output someplace regularly, if we don't already | 07:13 |
| wasabi | I shall quickly patch up those two. | 07:13 |
| mdz | are the other packages in that list sane already? | 07:14 |
| mdz | if you could spend a little time writing a short howto for doing java packages the right way in Ubuntu, we could distribute this workload a bit | 07:15 |
| mdz | or does something like that already exist? | 07:15 |
| wasabi | Not really. | 07:16 |
| wasabi | The problem is Java itself has no such howto. | 07:16 |
| wasabi | C comes in autoconf, or a makefile. | 07:16 |
| wasabi | Java comes in ... sometimes ant. | 07:16 |
| wasabi | Free java more than not comes in a hacked together custom weird thing. ;0 | 07:16 |
| wasabi | We need a comprehensive policy, really. | 07:17 |
| wasabi | Lots of ideas floating around, but few are written down. | 07:17 |
| mdz | I mean along the lines of what you just told me | 07:18 |
| mdz | use this compiler, this JVM, which packages to depend and build-depend on | 07:18 |
| wasabi | Debian suffers from the same problem really. Just not many Java hackers. | 07:18 |
| mdz | we have even fewer, I'm sure | 07:18 |
| wasabi | JavaPackagingProcess maybe | 07:18 |
| mdz | but given a clear direction to go in, we have quite a few people who are interested in getting packages into line with policy so that everything fits together nicely | 07:19 |
| wasabi | I never updated that hting. =/ | 07:19 |
| mdz | of course, they have their hands mostly full with the C++ transition at the moment | 07:19 |
| mdz | JavaPackagingProgress? | 07:20 |
| mdz | I don't see a ...Process | 07:20 |

| lifeless | try this : export CFLAGS="# this is not valid" | 08:42 |
| lifeless | then build *anything* | 08:42 |
| lifeless | it. wont. build. | 08:43 |
| infinity | Okay, fair enough. But I wasn't aware until just now that packages actually use tkBuild.sh to produce CFLAGS lines. | 08:43 |
| lifeless | I've rebuilt tk locally via debuild, it generates a good tkConfig.sh file | 08:43 |
| lifeless | so I can't give a source package patch. | 08:43 |
| infinity | Keen. And it almost certainly would have in the past as well. | 08:44 |
| lifeless | I have to presume that tk's configure script went haywire and build crud, and thats had a knock on effect once it landed in the archive | 08:44 |
| infinity | Alright, let me poke at it. | 08:44 |
| === `anthony [~anthony@ekorp-203-63-137-225.eoff.ekorp.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| lifeless | what I think is the right thing is a simple rebuild of tk on all platforms with broken file, and then a rebuild of anything that people report bugs on. | 08:45 |
| lifeless | i.e. I'd like to have gnu-smalltalk rebuilt, as I know its broken - thats how I got into this path. | 08:45 |
| infinity | it's right there in unix/tcl.m4.... Curious. | 08:45 |
| daniels | lifeless: no-one uses smalltalk anyway | 08:45 |
| lifeless | daniels: pfft | 08:45 |
| === Lathiat grins | ||
| Mithrandir | infinity: tcl.m4 makes modern automakes cry. Loudly. | 08:46 |
| lifeless | infinity: fuxked upstream then... thats NOT a valid path for XINCLUDES | 08:46 |
| lifeless | infinity: right, line 1769 | 08:46 |
| === rjo [~jordens@rjo.developer.debian] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| infinity | Mithrandir : I'm not surprised. Have you read it recently?... It's making me cry. | 08:47 |
| lifeless | infinity: I can give a patch to set that to "" rather than "# no special path needed" | 08:47 |
| Mithrandir | infinity: no, I try to get rid of it from my system when I can. | 08:47 |
| Mithrandir | s/infinity/lifeless/ | 08:48 |
| infinity | lifeless : The problem is a bit deeper than that. Have you read tcl.m4? | 08:48 |
| lifeless | infinity: read the related bit just now | 08:48 |
| Mithrandir | lifeless: the day I could purge my system of tcl would be a very happy day. | 08:48 |
| lifeless | well, gnu-smalltalk 2.1.10 has gtk support | 08:48 |
| infinity | lifeless : It's a fundamental difference between what tcl.m4 thinks that variable will be used for and what it actually IS used for, AFAICT. | 08:48 |
| lifeless | which I'm about to enable in the package, so yay. but 2.1.8 is whats in hoary | 08:48 |
| lifeless | google tells me that it is meant to be a -I line | 08:49 |
| lifeless | and meant to be a valid one | 08:49 |
| infinity | It is in tkConfig.sh, yes. | 08:49 |
| infinity | (is meant to be, that is) | 08:50 |
| lifeless | tkConfig.sh.in is where tkConfig comes from | 08:50 |
| lifeless | I think this is a fallow bug and that tk was built with X headers in /usr/include or a pre-set CFLAGS or some such | 08:50 |
| lifeless | and we've simply finally exposed it | 08:51 |
| lifeless | would you like a patch to correct tcl.m4 | 08:51 |
| infinity | Yeah, I see what they were trying to do. | 08:52 |
| infinity | And why they're retarded. | 08:52 |
| lifeless | lol | 08:52 |
| daniels | i'm all about exposing crappy code that used to work | 08:52 |
| infinity | I assume someone was hoping for the script to come out looking like: | 08:53 |
| infinity | TK_XINCLUDES='' # no special path needed | 08:53 |
| infinity | But just wasn't really paying attention to reality. | 08:53 |
| === Mithrandir hoorays for ChangeLog,v revision 1.100 in pkg-config cvs. | ||
| daniels | Mithrandir: i thought it was all called 'pkgconfig' these days | 08:54 |
| Mithrandir | daniels: nah, I'm moving it all to pkg-config from pkgconfig | 08:54 |
| lifeless | ok, I have patch | 08:54 |
| infinity | lifeless : Just changing it to a blank variable if it = "nope", I assume? | 08:55 |
| lifeless | and init to nothing | 08:55 |
| lifeless | theres about 4 places to change | 08:55 |
| infinity | Or, not "nope", but empty. Whatever. :) | 08:56 |
| infinity | I only see two to change. | 08:57 |
| infinity | The "nope" instance should stay. It's breakage if there are NO X includes found at all. | 08:57 |
| lifeless | uyhm | 08:58 |
| lifeless | no, AC_MSG_RESULT is the feedback for that | 08:58 |
| lifeless | if its meant to be a failure, that would be AC_MSG_FAIL | 08:58 |
| lifeless | well, either way | 08:59 |
| lifeless | the important bit is the two lines. | 08:59 |
| infinity | Oh, it should fail. Sure. And tcl.m4 should be completely rewritten too. I'm not going to fix either. :) | 08:59 |
| infinity | But I'll fix the obvious breakage. | 09:00 |
| lifeless | ok. | 09:01 |
| infinity | Then I'll cheat and patch configure, cause i really don't want to see what an autoconf run will do to this. | 09:01 |
| === lifeless discards his patch | ||
| lifeless | so the million dollar question .. will this rebuild get done for hoary ? | 09:02 |
| lifeless | as an update ? | 09:02 |
| infinity | Oh, nevermind. I wouldn't be the first to rerun autoconf on this source recently. | 09:03 |
| infinity | Guess I won't cheat. | 09:03 |
| infinity | How many packages in hoary did it affect that would also need to be rebuilt? | 09:04 |
| infinity | You might want to put such a list together, and slap that into the bug report. | 09:04 |
| infinity | I'll fix it in breezy, though. | 09:04 |

| pitti | fabbione: ah, ok. Well, I'm not in a hurry with it | 09:16 |
| fabbione | neither am i | 09:16 |

| Riddell | yep | 11:50 |

| pitti | Riddell: treat them specially and make them a dependency of l-p-kde-<lang>? | 11:50 |
| pitti | Riddell: or just strip them normally and integrate the translations into the kde langpack? | 11:51 |
| pitti | Riddell: the latter has the nasty effect that we have a bunch of empty kde-i18n debs around | 11:51 |
| === alerim [~alerim@voltaire-104-1-120.net1.nerim.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||

| Riddell | pitti: if they weren't stripped they couldn't contain files from rosetta | 11:52 |
| pitti | Riddell: yes, I would like to strip them, too | 11:52 |
| pitti | Riddell: so that we only need to update the langpacks, not the kde-i19n packages after a release | 11:52 |

| pitti | Riddell: I meant updates from Rosetta | 11:53 |
| Riddell | pitti: but no updates from kde? | 11:54 |
| pitti | Riddell: the upstream updates are imported into Rosetta automatically throught the stripping and import processs | 11:54 |
| Riddell | pitti: but that process is only when a new package is uploaded? | 11:54 |
| pitti | Riddell: yes, right | 11:54 |
| === vuntz is now known as vuntz|miam | ||
| pitti | Riddell: well, for Gnome I had a special script that pulled new translations from gnome cvs and put it into the langpacks | 11:55 |
| pitti | Riddell: if we need sth similar for KDE, this can be done, I think | 11:55 |
| Riddell | pitti: that sounds not too difficult | 11:55 |
| Riddell | pitti: what happens with all the other gnome programmes? if gnome 2.10.x comes out does ubuntu get the updates language packs from that? | 11:56 |
| pitti | Riddell: if I crank up my script, we can do that | 11:56 |
| pitti | however, not automatically | 11:56 |

| seb128 | thanks | 12:18 |
| Treenaks | pitti: whazzit? | 12:18 |
| pitti | seb128: basically, just install the two debs, and every newly started app should then generate a report | 12:18 |
| pitti | (when it crashes, that is) | 12:18 |
| seb128 | should I drop bug-buddy? | 12:18 |
| Treenaks | pitti: ooh.. will it ask if I want to submit that? :) | 12:18 |
| pitti | seb128: I'm still testing the b-b interaction and if it is bad, then I add a conflict | 12:19 |
| pitti | Treenaks: there is code, but I disabled it for now | 12:19 |
| pitti | Treenaks: I set up a preliminary server on http://debcrash.piware.de | 12:19 |
| pitti | Treenaks: it already has some test reports, but we need to spec this out | 12:19 |

| pitti | seb128: but b-b is ugly for beginners... | 12:20 |
| seb128 | what is so ugly with it? | 12:20 |

| pitti | Treenaks: later, from debug.ubuntu.com or so | 12:21 |
| Treenaks | coolness! | 12:21 |
| pitti | Treenaks: we want to strip the symbols on the buildds and put them there | 12:21 |
| Treenaks | pitti: yeah, I heard something like that | 12:22 |
| pitti | seb128: the main problem is that b-b is restricted to desktop applications, doesn't work with servers and for text mode | 12:22 |
| Treenaks | pitti: how about reportbug then? | 12:23 |
| pitti | seb128: and we have to modify it heavily to work with our db instead of submitting to gnome | 12:23 |
| pitti | seb128: I think modifying it is possible | 12:23 |
| seb128 | for my part of the issue, which is "stop flooding us and upstream with zillion of useless bugs" that's fine | 12:23 |
| pitti | seb128: but crafting an easy pygtk interface should be easier | 12:23 |
| pitti | seb128: the code already has a small pygtk gui | 12:23 |
| seb128 | you want to send all the crasher to bugzilla.ubuntu? | 12:23 |
| pitti | no | 12:23 |
| seb128 | do you have an idea of the number of crashers/week send by ubuntu users? :) | 12:23 |
| pitti | seb128: they should becollected in something like http://debcrash.piware.de (that actually works right now!) | 12:24 |
| pitti | seb128: nope | 12:24 |
| seb128 | nautilus get about 7-8 ubuntu crasher/days | 12:24 |
| seb128 | and that's one module | 12:24 |
| pitti | seb128: if you uncomment the commented code in debcrash's main and disable the file_report, you'll get the gui | 12:24 |
| seb128 | I guess that's some hundreds crashers/week | 12:24 |
| seb128 | vuntz|miam: any idea on this number? | 12:24 |
| pitti | we shouldn't flood bz with that, at least not unfiltered | 12:25 |
| seb128 | how do you want to filter that? | 12:25 |
| seb128 | automatically dup? | 12:25 |
| mvo | we talked about filters in the spec, it's a must IMHO :) | 12:25 |
| pitti | well, filter by package, version, signal, and maybe by the function the crash occurred in | 12:25 |
| seb128 | a filter doesn't lower the number of bugs | 12:26 |
| seb128 | automatic close of dup is probably not a piece of cake | 12:26 |
| seb128 | especially than dups are often useful to get new informations on a bug sleeping as NEEDINFO | 12:27 |
| pitti | Treenaks, seb128: http://people.ubuntu.com/~pitti/crashrep-gui.png | 12:28 |
| pitti | it is *ugly* right now, but a demo | 12:28 |
| tseng | white screen of death! | 12:28 |
| pitti | the information needs to be presented in a much better form, but the gui shouldn't get any more complicated | 12:28 |
| seb128 | right | 12:29 |
| seb128 | bug-buddy is not really complicate | 12:29 |

| pitti | seb128: it's not really bad, but b-b has several screens of which most of them aren't interesting (gnome db update and such) | 12:32 |

| seb128 | so it can speak to bugzilla.ubuntu.com by xmlrpc by example | 12:33 |
| seb128 | right | 12:33 |
| pitti | yes | 12:33 |
| pitti | seb128: files should already help us a lot, and we should get the debug stuff up and running | 12:34 |

| Lathiat | sweet | 03:18 |
| jdong | Lathiat: for now, I see it as a unnecessary waste of space, time, and bandwidth | 03:18 |
| Lathiat | jdong: i see it as a possible license violation | 03:18 |
| jdong | Lathiat: all the sources are exactly the same, minus the version number change | 03:18 |
| Lathiat | jdong: so, thats a change :) depends what license debian/ is under. :) | 03:18 |
| Lathiat | and more to the point, its convenient for me when i want the sources to something :) | 03:19 |
| Lathiat | but if your migrating to shit and then youo'll have it then rock on | 03:19 |
| jdong | Lathiat: why not deb-src Breezy? | 03:19 |
| Lathiat | jdong: well not all your stuff is from breezy for example | 03:19 |

| ogra | jdong, the build envoronment that imitates a buildd.... | 03:22 |
| jdong | ogra: yeah, reading docs. What's the difference between this and a chroot? | 03:23 |
| ogra | it checks your dependencys ;) | 03:23 |
| jnc | psst, amd64 devs; bug #11453 | 03:24 |
| jdong | ogra: isn't that just an dpkg-buildpackage and apt-get build-dep ordeal? | 03:24 |
| ogra | jdong, http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/PbuilderHowto | 03:24 |
| jdong | ogra: this looks like a wrapper around what I do already :) | 03:25 |
| ogra | jdong, the nice thing is that if you know it builds reliable in a pbuilder, you can very much rely n the fact it will build on the buildd too.... where using a chroot that already holds dependency packages might fool you | 03:25 |
| jdong | ogra: ah, ok | 03:25 |
| jdong | ogra: I see how that works. So it's more useful if you're making a new package, right? | 03:26 |
| ogra | i assume you dont rebuild your chroot everytime ;) | 03:26 |

| ogra | jdong, was just a hint, makes the life a lot easier if you work with buildds | 03:26 |

| SloMo | Amaranth: and for displaying the translated string there is either something to set for glade in python or it works out of the box when you initialized gettext before loading the glade file. but i have no idea how one can say setup.py, that it has to build the .gmo files and install them later | 06:09 |

| zAo^ | Loevborg, I installed several instances of Ubuntu, none failed to build /etc/hosts or /etc/network/interfaces. DHCP worked out-of-the-box | 06:18 |
| Loevborg | zAo^, it probably has to do with my skipping the "network configuration" part of the installaion (because my wlan card doesn't work with the detected prism54 drivers) | 06:19 |
| pitti | mdz: so far I use cryptsetup status, which gives an error when ran as non-root; now I'm writing a small app that uses libdevmapper directly | 06:19 |

| Amaranth | dcraven: *shrug* | 06:24 |
| dcraven | heh | 06:24 |
| Amaranth | dcraven: smeg stuff was spamming the desktop forum and ubuntugeek made me a subforum | 06:24 |
| Amaranth | i think mine was the first, but backports might have been there first | 06:24 |
| dcraven | Amaranth: Ahh.. I see. | 06:24 |
| Amaranth | if the project looks like it has a future and is being created and used by the ubuntu community i'm sure ubuntugeek will give you a subforum | 06:25 |
| Amaranth | but you have to have something to show | 06:25 |
| dcraven | Amaranth: Yeah. I was just curious about that. Might be handy some day. Cheers. | 06:26 |

| mdz | pitti: it is a shame to add another setuid root program to the default install :-/ | 06:27 |
| mdz | pitti: but if it is tiny and auditable and has a definite value to add, that seems reasonable | 06:28 |
| pitti | mdz: I think it's better than device string matching; I started with this, but it's really ugly | 06:28 |
| pitti | mdz: if you have a better idea, then I'd appreciate :-) | 06:29 |
| SloMo | Amaranth: the setup.py stuff is really complicated... hum... reminds me of automake/autoconf ;) I'll try to get sth working later or tomorrow and let you know | 06:33 |
| Amaranth | SloMo: ok, cool | 06:33 |
| \sh | can someone explain to me, how we can remove one package out of universe and replace it with another newer package from debian? | 06:36 |
| Mithrandir | \sh: "sync"? :-) | 06:36 |
| \sh | the reason is: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=286700 | 06:36 |
| \sh | Mithrandir: but i have to touch it anyways... | 06:37 |
| \sh | so the question is, how can i remove one package out of the repos? | 06:37 |
| Mithrandir | \sh: why do you need to remove it? | 06:38 |
| \sh | Mithrandir: gnuradio-0.9 is not maintained anymore, upstream dev has uploaded new version gnuradio-core-2.5 to debian | 06:38 |
| Mithrandir | \sh: the package name is gnuradio-0.9? | 06:38 |
| \sh | Mithrandir: gnuradio | 06:38 |
| Loevborg | \sh, why not just "dpkg -i" the package file | 06:38 |
| Mithrandir | \sh: then just upload a newer package? | 06:39 |
| \sh | Mithrandir: ok, and what about the old one? | 06:39 |
| \sh | oh yes | 06:39 |
| Mithrandir | \sh: it'll go away, since it's superseded. As long as the package name doesn't change. | 06:39 |
| \sh | Conflicts: Replaces: | 06:39 |
| Mithrandir | no, those are totally different things. | 06:39 |
| \sh | Mithrandir: but the name changed as well ;) | 06:39 |
| \sh | at least the source name as I can see right now | 06:40 |
| \sh | oh no...also the binary package name changed | 06:40 |
| Mithrandir | \sh: if the source package name changes, but the binary not, don't worry, it'll be caught by rene | 06:40 |
| \sh | Mithrandir: as I said, the binary package name changed as well | 06:40 |
| Mithrandir | \sh: doesn't matter. | 06:41 |
| mdz | pitti: I'm afraid I know very little about the dm crypto stuff | 06:41 |
| pitti | mdz: I'll explain it in a mail | 06:41 |

| mdz | jbailey: that script was only meant to show you what I was doing; it's not meant to exist in that form | 09:26 |
| Kamion | Nafallo: definitely start by using rsync -v | 09:26 |
| mdz | jbailey: the way it should work is: 1. mount root filesystem using the stock nfs script, 2. unionfs magic runs, 3. run-init | 09:27 |
| Nafallo | Kamion: http://www.magicalforest.se/~nafallo/mirrorscript/ | 09:27 |
| jbailey | mdz: Cool, thanks. | 09:27 |

| Nafallo | Kamion: stolen from maswan's script iirc ;-) | 09:30 |
| Kamion | Nafallo: nothing's jumping out at me as obviously wrong | 09:32 |
| maswan | I deny everything | 09:32 |
| Kamion | bear in mind I'm not a professional mirror operator though - that was just what I needed to do to get cdimage to work | 09:32 |
| Nafallo | Kamion: and it doesn't resync everything at your place? ;-) | 09:33 |
| Kamion | no | 09:33 |
| Kamion | but your script is fairly significantly different from mine, so that says nothing really | 09:33 |

| Nafallo | Kamion: i used universe/ and multiverse/ in excludes only. but I don't think that should change anything significantly :-) | 09:34 |

| === zeedo [~zeedo@www.reboot-robot.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Kamion | you sure that rsync -n is telling the truth? | 09:35 |
| Kamion | you could try it on smaller subdirectories of pool to experiment | 09:36 |
| Nafallo | Kamion: I tried without "pool/" and it does almost what it should. except that it plays with the daily-installerstuff. | 09:37 |
| Nafallo | Kamion: oh well. I should hack a bit more on it. | 09:38 |
| Nafallo | Kamion: I probably wouldn't want to use three sync against maswan's damn clusterstuff :-P. | 09:38 |
| maswan | sorry? | 09:38 |
| Nafallo | maswan: and _no_! you're _not_ innocent ;-) | 09:39 |
| Kamion | daily-installer-* contains symlinks within itself, hence the two rsync passes in my mirror script | 09:39 |
| Kamion | likewise installer-* | 09:39 |
| Nafallo | those are not hard-links? | 09:39 |
| Kamion | no, current -> <some directory> | 09:40 |
| Kamion | you can't hard-link directories | 09:40 |
| Nafallo | hmm, right. I read that yesterday in the middle of the night :-P. | 09:41 |
| Nafallo | maswan: as I mentioned earlier it's still slow for me to get the file lists from you. | 09:45 |
| maswan | Nafallo: does it take more than 5 minutes? | 09:46 |
| Nafallo | maswan: yes. could be that I'm on 440k ;-) | 09:47 |
| Nafallo | maswan: I thought you said it was the filesystem latency though... | 09:48 |
| Nafallo | Kamion: ahh, hardlinks for instance installer-i386/20050317ubuntu5/images/netboot/pxelinux.0? :-) | 09:48 |
| Kamion | cjwatson@jackass:~/ftp/dists/breezy/main/installer-i386/20050317ubuntu5/images/netboot$ ls -l pxelinux.0 | 09:49 |
| Kamion | lrwxr-xr-x 1 katie katie 32 May 10 19:35 pxelinux.0 -> ubuntu-installer/i386/pxelinux.0 | 09:50 |
| Kamion | Nafallo: that's a symlink | 09:50 |
| Nafallo | hmm. I run it with --copy-links (-L) and this: " => " shows up in the log. | 09:51 |
| Kamion | -L, --copy-links copy the referent of all symlinks | 09:51 |
| Kamion | I mirror dists/ with --links, not --copy-links | 09:51 |
| Kamion | (and --hard-links as well, although I don't think it's necessary) | 09:52 |
| Kamion | the reason for two passes in my script is so that I can use --links on dists/ but --copy-links on pool/ | 09:52 |
| Nafallo | Kamion: yepp, I keep --hard-links everywhere. | 09:52 |

| Kamion | Nafallo: yes, but if you're doing --copy-links on dists/ you will mirror stuff unnecessarily | 09:52 |
| Kamion | --hard-links is pretty irrelevant, I think; can't think of anything in the Ubuntu archive that would be a hardlink | 09:53 |
| Nafallo | hmm, I might clean some space on my lappy and try without -n in the last step :-P. | 09:54 |
| Kamion | as I say, try in pool/main/a/a52dec/ or something | 09:55 |
| Kamion | rather than the entire pool | 09:55 |
| Nafallo | Kamion: will try that now | 09:56 |
| === Nafallo tries p/ without -n | ||

| mvo | Kamion: I assume some python-apt code for #185424 wouldn't help you? i.e. a pyhton-apt based progress thing? | 10:04 |
| Kamion | mvo: as long as it works with only the minimal seed installed, it's fine | 10:05 |
| Kamion | although getting at python from base-config is a tad fiddly | 10:05 |
| Kamion | but I should be able to use debconf.py, I suppose | 10:05 |
| Kamion | mvo: I would like to see it in apt though | 10:05 |
| Kamion | and I need aptitude to be able to call it | 10:05 |
| mvo | Kamion: base-config is written in perl? or sh? | 10:06 |
| mvo | Kamion: and it then calls aptitude to do the install work? | 10:07 |
| Nafallo | Kamion: -n didn't lie. thanx anyway. I'm probably just need to hack on it a bit more :-P. | 10:08 |
| Kamion | mvo: mix of sh and perl; yes, it does | 10:08 |
| Kamion | bear in mind I really want to get this into Debian (it's a long-sought feature there too, and I want to avoid further base-config forkage since it's a nightmare at the moment), and requiring python would make life awkward there since python isn't in Debian's base | 10:10 |
| mvo | ok | 10:11 |
| === jljes [~agp@cm-80.111.96.084.chello.no] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Kamion | now obviously if big parts of apt move to python then that will have to change anyway, but I don't want it to have to happen *just* for base-config :) | 10:12 |
| mvo | apt has a very limited knowledge about what dpkg does right now | 10:13 |
| mvo | but I agree that it really should be done in apt itself :) | 10:13 |
| mvo | I have a fairly good idea how it could be done in python-apt, that's why I initially tried to ask about that ... | 10:14 |
