JanCsiretart : "0k" looks a lot like "Ok", maybe you better place a space between value & the unit multiplication prefix11:03
JanCe.g. on this page: http://siretart.tauware.de/revu/details.py?upid=3511:03
siretarthm.11:06
JanCoh, and are those decimal (1 kB = 1000 bytes) or binary (1 KiB = 1024 bytes) unit multipliers ?  :)11:06
siretart        return '%dk' % ( s.st_size / 1024 )11:07
siretartfrom the source..11:07
JanCso you use the wrong prefix  ;-)11:08
siretartis this better?11:08
JanCit's betetr readable yes11:09
siretartok. no 0k anymore. the information was partly useful anyway11:09
ajmitchhi11:11
JanCif you need a pointer about kB vs. KiB: http://www.iec.ch/zone/si/si_bytes.htm11:11
siretartJanC: happy now? ;)11:16
JanCsiretart : no, unlike with the decimal prefixes it's "Ki", not "ki"  ;-)11:25

ajmitchyou've done a good job on revu though11:40

siretartdholbach: did you see, debdiffing now works. proble is, it only works on uploads with orig.tar.gz included11:40
\shsiretart: native packages u can't debdiff...u have to sourceupload them anyways...11:43
siretartdidn't try this yet.. hmm11:44

siretartnative packages are ugly anyway :/11:44

dholbachmorning \sh11:45
\shhey dholbach11:45
ajmitchfunny, I thought debdiff of native packages worked..11:45
dholbachit does11:46
siretartdholbach: yepp.11:46
dholbachnative packages should be fine then11:46
\shajmitch: i tried it last time, and it didn't work, cause the native package changed as well, e.g. from package_1.2-0ubuntu1.tar.gz  to package_1.2-0ubuntu2.tar.gz11:46
ajmitch\sh: a native package with a debian version?11:46
\shajmitch: yes, but without a .orig.tar.gz11:47

\shw8...i will get an example11:47
\shdholbach: yups11:47
siretartare any ion3 users here?11:48
ajmitchyou could grab the latest version that is in the archive to compare against11:49
ajmitchfor revu, that is :)11:49
siretartajmitch: yes, I've been thinking about it. and it would be possible11:49
ajmitchtrivial, in fact :)11:50
siretartajmitch: could you write an shellscript, which gets as parameter the directory with the uploaded source package fetching the sourcepackage from the archive?11:50

ajmitchsiretart: currently as often as I feel like it ;)01:23
ajmitchI'll put it in cron01:23
ajmitchdo you think 6, 12 or 24  hours is best?01:23
siretartajmitch: when we get the server for revu we could host it there01:24
dholbachi meant UniverseNewPackages01:24
\shxfce4 is broken?01:25
ajmitchsiretart: sure, the script is horribly slow & written without speed in mind01:25
ajmitch\sh: hmm?01:25
\shajmitch: someone told me that yesterday...01:25
ajmitchit's been awhile since I used it01:26
\shxfce4: Hngt ab: xfwm4-themes (>= 4.2.1-1) soll aber nicht installiert werden01:27

=== siretart was thinking about some worklist tool
dholbachhttp://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTUTodo is a bit more complete now :)01:29
siretartyou could create a worklist, with description what todo, and comment on each item (package)01:29
siretartto replace wiki pages like LibraryCXXTranstion01:29
siretartdholbach: woooh, great! :)01:30
dholbach:)01:30
dholbachnow get cracking on those! :)01:30
ajmitchsiretart: not just a wiki page :)01:31
=== siretart is not a fan of wiki pages for coordinating work
ajmitchthey get messy quickly01:31
ajmitchwhich is why revu looks so much nicer :)01:31
dholbachwe just have to be faster ;)01:31

ivokshi all01:34
siretarthi ante!01:35
ivokswhat's up?01:35
dholbachhey ivoks01:35
=== ivoks is taking a break while studying
ajmitchhi ivoks01:37
ivokstoo much numbers in too short time :)01:37
ivoksheh, whole gang is here01:37
ajmitchonly a couple of us01:37
ajmitchthere's over 20 MOTUs now, right?01:37
dholbach23 :)01:37
ivokscould be...01:37
ivoks::)01:38
dholbach(i believe)01:38
siretartdoes anyone still think that its necessary to allow "updating" or "replacing" uploads in revu?01:38
siretartit was a feature request I received several times i think01:38
ajmitchI think it's useful01:39
ajmitchsince people upload, get comments, upload a fixed version01:39
dholbachit might be prudent to have a link to the old packages (so you can read the old comments, if there are any)01:39
siretartok, so the real issue is rather to preserve comments of old uploads, yes?01:40
ajmitchyep01:40
=== ajmitch thinks the review list is too long already :)
siretarthm. how about this: the index page shows only the latest upload01:41
siretartbut on the detail pages, you always see all comments concerning a  source package01:41
ajmitchgood idea01:41
ajmitchkeep the list as short as possible01:41
dholbachthat sounds excellent01:41
ajmitchsince we only need to see 1 source package, not all its versions01:42
siretartthe problem with updating uploads is that its very difficult to detect if an upload replaces another one01:42
ajmitchfor example some packages will need constant reviewing, as new upstream versions come out (eg smeg)01:42
dholbachdepend on the date01:42
ajmitchor compare versions01:42
siretartand to make sure that there won't be a real mess in case of mistake01:42
dholbachdate is easier than versions :)01:42
ajmitchversions is simple, use dpkg :)01:42
ajmitchdpkg --compare-versions01:43
dholbachwe should really concentrate on reviewing stuff01:43
dholbachwe might get in new MOTUs that way01:43
dholbach(if we're happy with their work)01:43
ajmitchdholbach: that's what I'm looking into now01:43
siretartyeah. full ack01:43
siretartthere are already some new candidates which uploaded stuff to revu. :)01:44
ajmitcheg, have you fixed marlin?01:44
dholbachnope01:44
ajmitchsince I noticed that'll be a candidate for a upload update :)01:44
ivoksso, who does uploads?01:45
dholbachhm? it's not in the archive yet01:45
ivoksarchived uploads :)01:45
ajmitchdholbach: no, but you'll want to update the package on revu so that we can review it01:48
dholbachajmitch: i didn't fix it yet01:48
dholbachajmitch: it's still broken01:48
dholbachajmitch: and i'm working on other stuff atm :)01:48
dholbachajmitch: i shouldn't even be here :)01:48
ajmitchdholbach: right, I'm just talking about a use case for updating uploads on revu :)01:49

ivoksthat was a problem01:52
ivoksi should've sign the CoC and then send it01:52
ivoksi missunderstand that chapter01:53

ajmitchI *think* dholbach managed to understand me at UDU :)02:02
dholbachajmitch: absolutely :)02:02
\shivoks: and 1 week in the states or uk or downunder or za, and u speak english like a god :)02:02

ajmitchNZ just has a boring name :)02:04
\shivoks: don't do that..it's making me a bit nervous :)02:04
ivoksheh, why?02:04
dholbachivoks: where did you get that stanza of the song?02:04
ivoksdholbach: isn't that german national anthem?02:05
\shivoks: no02:05
dholbachivoks: we absolutely don't sing that anymore02:05
tsengdholbach: !02:05
ajmitchheh02:05
ivoksok, it was :)02:05
\shit was in <194502:05
ivokssorry guys02:05
ajmitchwith big emphasis on *was* :)02:05
dholbachivoks: you touch the german national trauma there ;-)02:05
\shand it's not alloweded anymore i think02:05
ivoksdholbach: ah, we share same trauma :(02:05
\shivoks: most of europe share it :(02:05
ivokswell, that was then02:06
dholbachivoks: you don't have to be sorry :)02:06
ivoksneither of us did it, or want it02:06
dholbachivoks: i even admire your "wide reading" :)02:06
ivoksbtw, if you ask me, it's good to be pround on your country, and I would say that part with "uber alles" is in that meaning02:07
ivoksmaybe i'm wrong, don't know history of german anthem so well02:07
ivoksbut, let's close this topic... i don't want to revive dead that should stay dead :/02:08
\shivoks: there is a difference between patriotism towards your own country, or so much of "I love my mothercountry that I would kill for it"...and the first stanza of this song was the latter meaning02:09
tsengman mako totally got me re: his passport blog02:09

tsengi think that was the same night we got kicked out of the conference room02:10
\shthat's enough for politics today :)02:11
ivoks\sh: ok, just one question... right stanza would be then "deutschlan, deutschland..."?02:11
ivoksliebe or something?02:12
\shivoks: no.."einigkeit und recht und freiheit" 3. stanza02:12
\shthe 1. and 2. are not sung by anyone anymore, ok, only from neonazis02:12
