uniqi have kde 3.4.1 debs for amd64.03:39
uniqkdevelop is missing.. that's all.03:39
Riddellgroovy03:39
uniqand i'm compiling kdepim hoary2 now.03:39
uniqto close 822103:39
uniq+#03:39
uniqi'm compiling from a livecd so it's -very- slow.03:40
Riddellwell done03:40
uniqthere are also updated ppc packages to close #822103:40
uniqif you just copy the diff from my repo and compile the i386 packages. we've closed it in all arches :)03:41
uniqit's all under http://frode.kde.no/hoary-updates/03:43
uniqthe amd64 packages are not tested, but it's buildt in a clean pbuilder setup.03:43
uniqi've also done some work on ipodslave. separating the header files into it's own package. didn't bother to make a package for each lib. it would be 3 packages with 2 files in each.. 03:47
uniqgot some more cleaning up to do before i publish that package.. though.03:48
uniqand i'm also looking at kio-apt but it don't know if we want it. it's just searching like apt-cache does.. and kynaptic already does that.. in a way. no options to install packages or anything.03:51
uniqmight just get confusing to be able to do the same things 10 different places.03:52

Riddelluniq: yes, kio-apt is wanted.  I think kalyxo already packages04:43
Riddelluniq: poke me if I don't get round to looking at your amd64 and kdepim packages today, currently in the middle of hal fun04:43
uniqriddell: ok, i have kio-apt packaged already. just have to do some ubuntu spesific changes. make a patch to use packages.ubuntu.com instead of packages.debian.org, and remove some of the arches. etc. enjoy the hal fun.05:22

spierrelHi...05:46
spierrelOh... There is also, I find the time the work of Christian Marillat which needs to be available for kubuntu...05:47
spierrelThe good thing is that I can ask him how he did the job (we live in the same city...)05:47
Riddellspierrel: I think backports may be doing Marillat stuff05:48
spierrelYes, should be enough...05:48
Riddellmaybe Mez knows05:49
spierrelOk...05:49
Mez...?05:49
RiddellMez: is backports doing marillat?  or was that just malitious rumours I heard?05:50
=== Riddell thinks Mez is busy with his girlfriend
Mezon fone05:51
spierrel...:))05:52
JRelol05:52
Mezbackports have taken a coouple of things from marillat and rebuilt for hoary... but thats all05:52
JReMez: what sort of things ?05:53
Mezacroread I think05:53
MezI'm not too familiar with marillat05:54
Mezso you need to ask JohnDong not me05:54
spierrelJust a stupid question not to sleep dumb tonight: there are no binaries of breezy? Only the deb-src seems to work for me...05:54
Riddellspierrel: certainly are binaries05:54
JReMez: oki :)05:54
spierrelRiddell: May you give me your apt line for the binaries...05:54
uniqspierrel: depends on your architecture i guess.05:54
spierrelA i386 compatible... (PIV 2,4 Ghz - 1,5 Gb RAM)...05:55
Riddelldeb http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy main restricted05:55
Mezwhy do you ask JRe?05:55
spierrelAfter, I have a G3 to compile for...05:56
JReno because there is some packages of Marillat which have license issues IIRC05:56
spierrelRiddell: It works...05:56
Mezah fair enough05:56
Mezwell backports will have to be rebuilt anyways05:56
Mezfor sdtuff to do with the buildd05:57
spierrelAbout the packages of Christian, some of them have issue and that's why they are not in the main stream... and the main servers...05:57
JRethat's why i thinked05:57
JRes/why/what/05:57
spierrelBut they are plainly useful... For example the w32codecs...05:57
Mezw32codecs = in backports05:58
spierrelGood news!05:58
JRe;)05:58
spierrelOk... If it can be useful, I will check what is not done and tell you what I can work on... (kmldonkey, kmymoney2, kdissert...)05:59
MezI think it might be in the hoary-extra actually05:59
JRebut w32codec can be in official ubuntu repo ?05:59
Mez??06:00
JReIIRC on debian it's not on the official repo you have to add the personnal marillat website to get it06:00
Mezthats rtue about debian06:00
spierrelMez, JRe: It should be checked (about w32codec)06:00
JRebecause some of them are illegal06:00
spierrelJRe: Why illegal?06:00
JRelicense06:00
JRelike the thing to read dvd i don't know if it's legal ;)06:01
Mezeverything will be cecked... we still need to sort stuff out with TB and CC about Backports yet, we havent got things finalised properly06:01
spierrelJRe: It depens the place you live! We are French and it's legal for us...06:01
JRespierrel: ok!06:01
Mezspierrel, hence multiverse :D06:01

elmoRiddell: eh, why split out the mp3 thing?07:32
Riddellelmo: because we can't have mp3 in main07:32
Riddellprevious builds didn't have mp3 decoding at all, which is complained about a lot07:34
elmoRiddell: says who?07:34
elmothere's existing precedent for mp3 in main07:34
elmodecode, obviously07:34
Riddellelmo: mdz07:34
Riddellsame reason we have akode-mpeg package07:35
pefShould I use debhelper or cdbs to build packages for kubuntu ? Some people advise me to use cdbs, what's your point of view ?07:36
Riddellpef: personal prefernece.  cdbs hides a lot of what's going on which can be tidy or can be obscure07:37
elmoRiddell: would k3b be on the kubuntu CD?07:37
Riddellpef: if you're just starting with packaging you should learn debhelper stuff first07:37
Riddellelmo: yes07:37
pefso there are no recommendations ?07:37
elmoRiddell: ok, but the point is not that we can't have mp3 decode in main, it's that we can't ship it on the CD07:37
Riddellpef: probably best to learn debhelper then do cdbs07:37
elmoRiddell: so please don't split unless it would put mp3 decode on the CD07:38
Riddellelmo: yes.  but in this case it does go on CD07:38
elmoRiddell: ok, but you said earlier we can't have mp3 in main - we definitely can; that's my point07:39
pefRiddell, debhelper/cdbs is ~ to LaTeX/TeX  about level of abstraction ?07:39
pefTeX/LaTeX sorry07:39
Riddellelmo: sure, sorry for the confusion07:41
Riddellpef: I guess so (not being a tex user)07:41
Riddellpef: debhelper hides a lot behind all the dh_* scripts, and cdbs hides all those07:42
=== mart [~mart@socksgw4.ncl.ac.uk] has joined #kubuntu-devel
pefRiddell, so debhelper is more suitable for my first kubuntu package ?07:43
Riddellpef: yes, if you don't learn debhelper you'll get stuck with cdbs quickly07:44
pefRiddell, thank you ;)07:44

Riddellmart: it's all done pretty much07:53
martyeah?  I was looking at the wiki and figured best not to pull from breezy just yet...07:54
