Burgundaviasure10:35
BurgundaviaI am not a MOTU, but I know most a fair amount10:36
comadrejaThanks Burgundavia :) ok, let's say I decide to work on a bug10:36
comadrejanext step is to download the source package ? breezy ? hoary ?10:36
Burgundaviabreezy10:37
comadrejahow can I test if it's solved in hoary ? is the one I have installed ?10:37
Burgundaviait doesn't need to be solved in hoary, only in breezy10:37
Burgundaviaunless it is a security fix or a major crasher10:38
comadrejayes, I mean test a breezy package in hoary10:38
Burgundaviaafter you fix it, upload it to REVU10:38

uniqpef: depends on the package and the bug i guess.11:07

=== thesaltydog [~fabio@62.211.45.57] has joined #ubuntu-motu
pefuniq: sysv-init11:08
uniqpef: then i would suggest reencoding in the rules file.11:09
pefuniq: it's an unique file among many11:10
uniqyou can always make a patch.11:10
pefuniq: so I add this rule, and send you the new package with ubuntu+1 revision number ?11:10
uniqis the file provided by upstream?11:10
uniqsending it to me won't help much.11:10
JanCpef : what manpage are you talking about ?11:11
uniqi could upload it to revu for you, that's about it.11:11
pefJanC: update-rc.d.811:11
pefJanC: utf8 instead iso8859-111:11

thesaltydogpef, if you don't see correctly the french version, it is because the page has not been eutf-8 encoded.11:15
JanCthat's what unicode was designed for  :)11:15
JanCthe french translation is encoded as iso8859-1 and should be utf8 ?11:16
thesaltydogyes!11:16
thesaltydogJanC, it is like po pages. If they are not utf8 encoded, they displays weirdly..11:16
thesaltydoguniq, ?11:17

thesaltydoguniq, do you have a REVU upload account?11:17
uniqthesaltydog: i have.11:18
pefand only 1 utf-8, the update-rc.d which displays weirdly :)11:18
thesaltydoguniq, my package is hanging in MOTUNewPackages, and Daniel Holbach has put the final note: signed.11:18
thesaltydogbut I don't have a signed key, so I can't upload.11:18

pefoutput of my previous command : http://dl.erodia.net/ubuntu/output11:20
thesaltydogwarty was iso-8859-111:20
pefthesaltydog: it's a fresh install of breezy using colony1 cd11:21
uniqthesaltydog: you can get a REVU account without a signed key, my key isn't signed either.11:21
thesaltydogthe manpages you say are still 8859-1, are old ones. they need to be updated11:21
JanCseems like there is some work to do  ;)11:22
thesaltydogI have an account, but siretart told me that I can't upload if I don't have a signed key..11:22
pefJanC: I will be very happy to do this, it's why I asked how to correct packages ;)11:22
uniqthesaltydog: you can't upload to universe without a signed key, you can upload to revu without.11:25
JanCshouldn't $LANGUAGE also include the .UTF8 ?11:25
thesaltydoguniq, I believe you, but siretart told me I can't11:25
thesaltydoguniq, maybe I should try tomorrow..11:25
uniqgo for it :)11:27
thesaltydoguniq, ok. tomorrow I'll let you know..11:27
Mezhmm... got a weird comment in REVU11:30
Mezthat I need to put the copyright year in debian/copyright11:30
MezI've not seen it in any other debian/cipyright before11:30
pefMez: try glurp for example ;)11:31

uniq/usr/share/doc/dpkg/copyright - so does dpkg11:32
uniqand bash.11:32
uniqdpkg is a good example.11:32
siretartthesaltydog: I told you that you should get your key signed, but that I also already have your (unsigned) key added11:33
siretartMez: see this post from weasel: http://lists.debian.org/debian-legal/2003/12/msg00188.html11:34
thesaltydogsiretart, ah, ok... So I have misunderstood... Sorry and thanks!11:35
pefso I should make a bug report for the iso8859-1 encoded manpages ?11:35
uniqpef: bugreports are always good, just to document the problem. even if you fix it right away it's good.11:36
thesaltydogsiretart, one question, as this will be my first attempt for an upload... Uploading the file .changes, will automatically upload also the orig.tar.gz? It is not listed in .changes..11:37

siretartthesaltydog: use "debuild -S -sa" when building the source package11:37
thesaltydogI did11:37
pefuniq: ok, I just need some pointers on how to correct a package, I know how to create a package from scratch, but nothing about correction11:37
siretartaccording to manpage, the changes file includes the .orig.tar.gz then, and well, that works for me [tm]  ;)11:38
ajmitchmorning11:39
uniqpef: if it can easily be done in the rules file without adding too much dependencies i suggest doing it in the rules file in this case. It's impossible to give a 'standard' answer for your question. However, changes are best made in patches or in the rules file. (correct me if i'm wrong)11:40
uniqawkward explaining.. :|11:41
pefuniq: for example, if I want to correct the encoding of a file, I just have to add for example an iconv command in the rules file, then increasing the package's version number, modifying the changelog, and voila :p ?11:41
thesaltydogsiretart, I have 2 .changes file: <package>-<version>_source.changes and <package>-<version>.changes. Which one is the file for dput?11:42
uniqpef: iconv is in the default buildsystem, it's provided by libc6, so yes, in this case just put a line in the rules file, to recode the manpage in the build process.11:43
Mez_source11:43
thesaltydogok11:44
pefuniq: there are _huge_ number of packages that need manpage recoding, nearly every package provinding a french manpage :/11:44
siretartthesaltydog: only the _source.changes one. we cannot revu binary packages11:45
pefDo I have to create a bug report for each of them, and providing the corrected package ?11:45
Mezsiretart, do you know how godamn annoying it is to get a source package out of pbuilder ;)11:46
tsengMez: uh11:46
uniqpef: i still think this is the easiest (and maybe best?) solution. doesn't need to add dependencies, and you only add a line to the rules file. small change, no need for dpatch and all the extra stuff that comes with it.11:46
tsengMez: it freaking puts it right in the results directory11:46
tsengMez: it cant get much easier than that11:46
uniqpef: i would make a bugreport for each, i guess. easier to keep track of which are fixed and which are not.11:47
Meztseng - put it deosnt put _source.changes11:47
tsengof course it doesnt11:47
Mezand for soemt reason without a source.changes it wont upload the orig.tar.gz11:47
tsengthats not part of the source11:47
tsengthats part of the upload11:47
pefuniq: ok, so I know what I have to do next days ;) thanks for your accurate infos11:47
tsengdude you dont upload stuff from pbuilder11:47
tsengits not signed11:47
Meztseng :D11:48
Mezit is if you use --auto-debsign11:48
tsengwell dont do it11:48
Mezpdebuild = useful11:48
uniqmez: the point is that you don't upload binary packages, because building is not your laptops job, in the end. :)11:48
Mezuniq: I know...11:49
thesaltydogsiretart, Connection failed, aborting. Check your network (-2, 'Name or service not known')11:49
MezI never said it was :D I'm saying, when you use pbuilder to buidl tehm normally, so you can work out deps automaticalyl,.... it's a PITA to get an uploadable output11:49
uniqno, it's not :)11:50
uniq'debuild -S -sa' in the source directory will do that for you. I use pbuilder myself for testbuilds.11:50
Mezuniq - I know that11:50
Mezlol :D I just find it a lil annoying thats all :)P11:51
thesaltydogsiretart, ok, I mispelled the host name11:51
MezIt just confused the hell out of me for a while when it didnt work :D11:52
pefhttp://dl.erodia.net/ubuntu/datakiosk/ someone could check if my package is really ok for upload ?11:53
Burgundaviapef, that is what REVU is for now11:53
pefBurgundavia: it is on it :)11:53
pefBurgundavia: I've corrected what the comments mentionned11:53
Burgundaviathen reupload to REVU11:53
pefBurgundavia: I'm not a motu11:54

Burgundaviaif you fixing problems11:54
MezBurgundavia, you dont need to be11:55
Mezyou just need a revu account.11:55
MezREvU is mainly used to "train" potential motu IIRC11:55
uniqsiretart: a suggestion for REVU would be a list on a per user basis of packages he uploaded, and the comments for each. great for later refference. and to keep track of which packages made it into the universe also helps the motu team to keep track of non motu maintainers. is there a wiki i should put this on maybe?=11:55
thesaltydogsiretart, the package is uploaded. Thanks!11:55
pefBurgundavia: but it's Jonathan Ridell who upload first my package, so I imagine I can't upload over him ?11:56
Burgundaviahmm11:56

Burgundaviabut in general, as I understand it, that is what you need to do11:56

thesaltydoguniq, should I remove now the package from MOTUNewPackages?11:57
Burgundaviathe REVU wiki page should list how to do that11:57
