KamionBurgundavia: yo?01:01
BurgundaviaKamion, someone on the forums, asking about OEM installer01:02
Kamionwasabi_: root of the unpacked source package01:02
Burgundaviaso I mentioned to come and talk to you01:02
KamionBurgundavia: *shrug* will be ready when it's ready :)01:02
Burgundaviaindeed01:02
wasabi_Kamion, Hmm. I'm a bit confused why this used to work.01:02
wasabi_I thought I could just put usr/share/foo in the .install file.01:02
wasabi_Without preceeding it with debian/tmp01:03
Kamionwasabi_: do you mean the left-hand side or the right-hand side of the line?01:03
wasabi_Left handed side.01:03
wasabi_Without a right handed side01:03
Kamionwasabi_: you're using --autodest?01:03
wasabi_I am using cdbs.01:04
Kamionor --sourcedir?01:04
wasabi_Doesn't look like that's being passed.01:04
Kamionoh, who knows what that does01:04
=== Kamion only does debhelper
wasabi_Heh.01:04
wasabi_dh_install -peclipse-platform01:04
wasabi_cp: cannot stat `./usr/share/eclipse/eclipse.ini': No such file or directory01:04
wasabi_This is odd because I swear I've done this, with cdbs, before.01:04
Kamionuse DH_VERBOSE to see what it's doing01:04
=== stub [~stub@203-217-37-199.dyn.iinet.net.au] has joined #ubuntu-devel
Kamionperhaps you need to use --sourcedir if ./usr/share/eclipse/eclipse.ini doesn't exist relative to the root of the source package you're building in01:05
Duck_busycoin01:07
wasabi_Heh.01:08
wasabi_It does a bunch of files.01:08
wasabi_But just doesn't do this one. This one is a symlink.01:08
Duck_busywasabi_: use .links then ?01:08
wasabi_Yeah. That just means part of the logic for creating the symlink is in rules and part isn't.01:09
wasabi_This thing always beats my ass.01:10
wasabi_Duck_busy, okay... how about this. I have removed all the complicated parts. I have only usr/share/eclipse/eclipse.ini listed in .install.01:13
wasabi_And it's saying not found.01:13
=== Jerrac [~user@madcab3-130.crestviewcable.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel
wasabi_This has worked before without me having to tell it what the sourcedir is.01:14
Duck_busyhum01:15
Duck_busywas in debian/tmp/ but is now in debian/<pkg>/ ?01:15
JerracI was told on the forums to talk to Kamion or mdz about my request. Are they here?01:15
wasabi_jhaltom@station-1:/dev/shm/eclipse/eclipse-3.1~RC2$ ls debian/tmp/usr/share/eclipse/eclipse.ini01:16
wasabi_debian/tmp/usr/share/eclipse/eclipse.ini01:16
KamionJerrac: I'm here, but about to be dragged off to bed01:16
Jerracah, ok. maybe I can be quick then.01:16
Kamionso if it's not a one-line-answer thing it'll probably have to wait :)01:16
Duck_busywasabi_: then using debian/tmp/usr/share/eclipse/eclipse.ini should strip debian/tmp and be ok01:16
JerracHere is my post:01:16
JerracI see that there is going to be an OEMInstaller: http://udu.wiki.ubuntu.com/OEMInstaller01:16
JerracI am working on a Ubuntu based computer to sell on ebay, the one thing I am having problems with is an easy way for the buyer to change the default username and password I have to put on with Hoary.01:16
JerracIs there a way I could use part of the current OEMInstaller to create a script that the buy could run when they first start the computer? As in they log in under the default username and then click the script to run it.01:16
JerracThanks!!01:16
wasabi_Duck_busy, I have to put debian/tmp in .install?01:16
wasabi_See, I've just never had to do that before.01:17
KamionJerrac: there isn't a "current OEMInstaller"01:17
Duck_busywasabi_: yes sir01:17
wasabi_I used ot be able to just plain list "usr/share/eclipse/eclipse.ini"01:17
JerracIs there some code I could use to do what I want?01:17
wasabi_wihtout a leading /01:17
Duck_busydid u used .files instead of .install ?01:17
wasabi_NOpe.01:17
JerracOr do you have any other suggestions?01:17
Duck_busywasabi_: or dh_install --autodest ?01:18
wasabi_I've done this previously with cdbs01:18
KamionJerrac: not really, if I were you I'd install without creating a user (you can do this by setting the root password instead) and run dpkg-reconfigure passwd afterwards01:18
wasabi_without touching the dh_install logic at all01:18
Duck_busywasabi_: why stop using cdbs ?01:18
wasabi_I am using cdbs. I haven't stopped.01:18
KamionJerrac: but the work basically just hasn't been done yet, so you'll have to do a certain amount of stuff yourself01:18
wasabi_Actually I'm converting a non-cdbs package to cdbs01:18
Duck_busyperhaps cdbs logic changed then01:18
Jerracyah, i figured that.01:19
Duck_busybut is am not aware of such changes01:19
JerracHow do I bypass creating a user in the install?01:19
KamionJerrac: like I say, set the root password01:19
Duck_busywasabi_: ask jbailey tomorrow about it01:19
Duck_busyhe will be able to tell you if anything changed01:19
Jerracok, thanks. I will try to figure that out. :D01:19
Duck_busyhe is cdbs main author01:20
KamionJerrac: if you're working interactively, use expert mode and you'll see it01:20
wasabi_yeah01:20
wasabi_I'm looking at this package right here... java-common01:20
KamionJerrac: otherwise, preseeding/kickstart can do it01:20
wasabi_In it's .install it lists etc/jvm01:20
wasabi_in it's rules it lists dh_install -i01:20
Jerracok, thanks! 01:20
wasabi_and that's it01:20
Kamionanyway, got to go ...01:20
JerracI will go work on it more. :D01:20
Jerrac Have a good evening!01:20
Kamionta01:21
Duck_busywasabi_: compat level is ?01:21
wasabi_oooh. ones doesn't have it listed.01:21
wasabi_the one that is broken is 401:22
Duck_busyhere it is01:22
Duck_busyold behavior was .files compat stuff with like --sourcedir=debian/tmp i'm sure01:22
wasabi_ahh.01:22
wasabi_okay. that probably explains it.01:22
Duck_busywasabi_: try using : DEB_DH_INSTALL_ARGS := --sourcedir=debian/tmp01:24
Duck_busyif you don't want to modify your .install files01:24
wasabi_I'll just put debian/tmp in front of everything01:24
wasabi_my install files need to copy from debian/extra also.01:25

Nafallothom: hi :-)01:28
thomNafallo: you're welcome to, ensure that your dhcp server gives out the right details and you will01:28
Nafallothom: it's way more complex than that I'm afraid ;-)01:29
Nafallothom: my domain exists both outside and inside my network (with different ips assigned) 01:29
Nafallothom: I want to use the internal dns when I'm at home and whatever dns I get when I'm away.01:30
thomNafallo: so? if your dhcp server gives out the correct nameservers, then NM will configure bind9 to use them01:30
Nafallothom: this new setup breaks that :-/01:30
=== jgotangco [~jsg@202.57.71.235] has joined #ubuntu-devel
thomNafallo: i don't see how, at all01:30
Duck_busygood night folks01:30
elmoman, mdz's got his joeyh-game-face on for ubuntu uploads01:31
thomNafallo: all bind9 is being used for by NM is as a caching nameserver that it can reconfigure based on the instructions it recieves from dhcp01:31
=== Duck_busy is now known as Duck_dodo
wasabi_oh darn dh_install can't rename01:31
thomyes, it totally sucks that it has to be bind9; there're moves afoot to fix that. but that's not the issue here01:31
Nafallothom: hmm, and the instruction is not the options domain-name-servers and domain-name?01:33
thomNafallo: if it's not working, you're probably seeing the result of 1190501:33
thomwhich i will fix in the morning01:33
=== seth_k is away: out
Nafallothom: I've recompiled with that package as build-dep :-)01:34
Nafallothom: ehm. let me check something ;-)01:34
thomwell, what does "grep forwarders /var/lib/NetworkManager/NetworkManager-named.conf" give you?01:35
Nafallothom: right now I've screwed the config a bit. but that has indeed the correct forwarder :-)01:36
thomand your /etc/resolv.conf has 127.0.0.1?01:37
Nafallothom: yes01:37
thomthen i don't see what the problem is? i'll fix the two bugs whiprush reported in the morning01:37
Nafallothom: before I didn't got the correct forwarder set, cause I couldn't find my own domain.01:38

mdzI bet it resets the X server after the session leader exits04:01
mdzwhich kills their connections to the X server, causing them to exit04:01
danielsjdub: xlibs-dev will never grow more dependencies.  ever.04:01
danielsjdub: that being said, I haven't actively *removed* any dependencies ...04:01
jdubdaniels: we need a meta package tho04:02
mdzjdub: we do?04:02
jdubit would be handy for anyone building against X stuff who doesn't really grok all of X04:03
mdzhaving one for compatibility purposes seems OK, but do we really need a metapackage for everyhting going forward?04:03
tsengjdub: apt-get build-dep, dude04:03
jdubperhaps a task, but i haven't really bought in to the task thing04:03
mdzjdub: by that logic, we should have a metapackage of all -dev packages in Ubuntu ;-)04:03
jdubtseng: outside package land04:03
jdubmdz: YEAH THAT TOO!04:03
jdubno04:03
jdubi mean04:03
=== mdz lowers his fist of IRON
jdubrandom dude using jhbuild or something04:03
mdzdude, jhbuild ought to be packaged04:04
mdzand depend on all the build-deps04:04
tsengjhbuild should list debian deps04:04
=== mdz gesticulates wildly
tsenggarnome used to iirc04:04
jdubsuddenly their gnome doesn't have xinerama support04:04
jdubmdz: i appreciate your enthusiasm, but... ;)04:04
tsengbesides that sebuild has obsoleted jhbuild04:05
danielsjdub: i think the entire concept of a metapackage is broken04:06
danielsjdub: user convenience will turn into packages b-d'ing on every single x library in existence because a) they can and b) they can't be arsed working out which libraries they depend on04:06
daniels(metapackage broken -> in this case, not in general)04:06
jdubdaniels: but you can see the issue with xinerama and friends04:06
danielsjdub: that's actually a separate issue04:07
danielsjdub: where it used to be in xlibs-static-dev, and I intentionally broke something that used to work04:07
mdzjdub: we don't do this for gnome, or jakarta, or anything else I can think of.  why X, now that it's split up?04:07
jdubmdz: primarily because there are a lot of optional depends on X things04:07
jdubi don't know if this is the right solution04:08
jdubi think we need something like it for gnome04:08
tseng man we need a monopod package04:08
jdubbut for different reasons04:08
mdzI think that if anything, we should have a grouping of development libraries for everything in desktop04:08
jdubtseng: it has such a bad name!04:08
danielseh, imo if you want xinerama functionality, just hardcode --enable-xinerama, or whatever04:08
tsengjdub: dude think of 3 pees in a pod04:08
tsengjdub: but with 2 less pees04:08
danielsthat way, if libXinerama would ever fall out of a package it was in (hypothetically), you would just have a hard build failure, not a silent failure to use Xinerama04:08
jdubdaniels: most configure scripts check, it says no, they continue on -> optional depends04:09
mdzwould it be worthwhile to load powernowd on thin clients?  what portion of thin client-ish hardware is likely to support frequency scaling?04:09
jdubdaniels: now, we can do things to make sure we don't miss these in ubuntu04:09
danielsjdub: right, but if you use --enable-xinerama or whatever, you break when these things disappear04:09
danielsinstead of just silently stop using it04:10
jdubmdz: do those via chips do power scaling?04:10
danielsi think this is a general best-practice thing, not just for ubuntu04:10
mdzjdub: dunno04:10
jdubdaniels: Common Man doesn't care to do that04:10
jdubmdz: mjg might know04:10
infinitymdz : A lot of smaller all-in-one systems will (and have) ship with CPUs that can frequency scale.04:10
mdzjdub: yeah, but he also might be asleep04:10
jdubmost of the thin client things i've seen have via c3s or laptopish cpus04:10
infinitymdz : And for machines that spend a lot of their time doing very little (which thin clients tend to do), it may be a win to have half your network at low power.04:10
mdzjdub: that, and recycled 10-year-old desktops04:11
jduboh, well, yeah04:11
infinity(What I don't know is if powernowd supports frequency scaling of VIA CPUs, which do support it at the hardware level)04:11
mdzinfinity: well, there's "might be handy in some deployments" and "should be there by default"04:11
danielsjdub: arguably Common Man shouldn't be maintaining stuff in main?04:11
infinityjdub : The CPUs definitely do.  I don't know if the package supports them.04:11
jdubmdz: i'd say there by default, removeable :)04:11
jdubdaniels: building stuff, dude04:12
jdubdaniels: nothing to do with ubuntu land04:12
danielsjdub: i think mdz's idea is a good one04:12
jdubi'm definitely not saying packages should b-d on a metapackage04:12
jdubyeah, though i'm not sure about tasks04:12
jdubbut there should be a way for someone to say "I want to build my kernel" -> zap04:13
danielser04:13
jdub"I want to write a GNOME app" -> zap04:13
daniels'I WANT LESS SECURITY SUPPORT"04:13
mdzjdub: that is totally a build-dep use case04:13
daniels'make that really easy'04:13
jdubmdz: i'm not thinking in terms of ubuntu land04:13
jdubconsider dude who wants to build jhbuild04:13
mdzthe one I'm driving at is sort of the traditional unix "if you install something, you have the development bits too" semantic04:13
jdubor write a gnome app04:13
mdzjdub: everything should be part of ubuntu land!04:14
mdzthere is no other04:14
jdub"i appreciate your enthusiasm, but..." ;)04:14
mdzI'm not keen on optimizing for the case of unpackaged software04:14
mdzI'd rather it be a pain, to drive people into packaging ;-)04:14
jdubmdz: whoa, so one bit flip that says "i am a developer" and everything comes with related -dev?04:14
jdubor mark's idea of making sure related packages are installed04:15
mdzjdub: the former04:15
jdubif you have php and mysql installed, you should get the bindings04:15
mdzI haven't actually evaluated the list of packages which would result; it might be crack04:15
mdzbut I think there's a greatest common factor "development STUFF" that we could do04:15
jdub^ expression of idea, not statement ;)04:15
mdzwhich is like "what you expect to have"04:16
jdubmdz: particularly if it stressed the interfaces we support04:16
mdzwe'd just have to add a jennifer check to reject packages which build-depend on it ;-)04:16

danielshth, hand, kthxbye04:19
danielsbut, uhm, yeah04:19
danielscan we not use the task mechanism for this?04:19
infinityTasks and metapackages are all about "all or nothing", though.04:19
infinitySo, I say "I'm a developer" and I get every lib*{,-dev} in the archive?04:20
infinityThat's very not keen.04:20
jdubit's odd that ian thinks glibc is too much divergence, but xorg and gnome aren't04:20
jdubinfinity: for stuff you install04:20
infinityI want a switch that automatically makes sure I have a matching -dev for every lib I have installed, but not for ones I don't.04:20

infinityLike, you can have 12 versions of libdbXX installed, but only one libdb-dev.04:38
danielswell, it's not like anyone ever uses multiple versions of libdb04:39
danielsmaybe you could have a Prefers header on your -dev, to make it the first of a conflicting set of packages04:39
danielseither that, or have apt's dependency resolver work out which one will involve removing the least packages.04:39
danielswhich should actually be fairly trivial04:39
infinityapt's dependency resolver is black magic that no sane man (hi mdz!) wants to touch. :)04:40
danielsinfinity: it's actually reasonably easy to do in this case.04:40
=== mdz <-- sane
infinityYeah, I know.  I just knee-jerk when anyone suggests diving into Culus's code.04:41

Duck_worki'm trying to build it02:22
jbaileyYeah, it's not intended to require dash in the end.  That's just what we're using for testing for now.02:22

jbaileyThe important bits are between the beer stain and the french fry grease. =)02:23
elmolibrary packages called libfoo-cvs are JUST WRONG02:23
seb128jbailey: do you know why some cdbs packages have a .cdbs-config_list?02:24
tsengelmo: its better if you have a bunch of stuff build-dep on it02:24
tsengelmo: and no epoch02:24
seb128jbailey: ie, gaim has gaim-1.3.1.tar.bz2.cdbs-config_list02:24
pittiseb128: I think that happens to all cdbs packages which were built recently; it certainly happens to all of mine and I think it's annoying...02:25
jbaileytseng: Essentially the design stuff that I have is scattered across IRC sessions, phone calls, and in person descriptions.  The problem is that the design evolves everytime dilinger and I talk to someone or touch it.02:25

=== magnon [~magnon@magnon.photogeeks] has joined #ubuntu-devel
seb128pitti: yeah, same for me02:25
jbaileytseng: I find it easiest to talk about it relative to the current cdbs, rather than as a complete design on its own.  We've committed that it will have at least some basic docs in it before the first upload this time, though.02:26

elmofabbione: yeah02:30
fabbioneelmo: rocking02:30
jbaileyseb128: The magic that Robert put in has too many side effects, and no testsuite bits so I can't even feel safe about pulling it out with a minimum of side effects.  It's incentive to do more with cdbs2.  Testsuites and docs are basically all that's left for something that is good enough for most autotools uses.02:30

infinityLathiat : I would never push this as a replacement for ntpd.03:22
Lathiatinfinity: why not? ntp is sub-second 03:22

lamontpitti: checking that the a new tarball is larger than the existing one strikes me as a hack, fwiw04:19
pittilamont: so far we didn't discuss that with anybody yet04:19
lamontthat'd be a dpkg-genpackage-ish thing, by adding it to a file list/04:20
pittilamont: it is a hack, until the gettext issue on 64 bit platforms is sorted out; but that might take a while04:20

lamontonly on hppa10:06
seb128iz hppa bog :)10:07
lamontand the gcc regression is that (on hppa) function pointers don't get canonized before getting compared, and therefore things that should compare equal say 'unequal'10:07

lamontfor the moment, I'm ignoring it, and planning an as-discovered solution model10:21
lamontcompiling with -O1 makes the problem go away (although no guarantees came with that answer)10:21
