wasabiPssh.03:30
wasabiWe are unrelated to that project.03:31
moebius_well, I know they are not an official ubuntu thing03:31
moebius_but I thought you might be somewhat aware of their status since they are in the same area03:31
wasabiI had no idea they existed until you pasted that link.03:31
moebius_ah03:32
moebius_it's the first thing that comes up in google for "ubuntu java"03:32
moebius_and it was references on ubuntuguide.com (I know, also not official)03:32
moebius_er, referenced03:32
wasabiI dunno what this guy offers that we don't, other than a prepackaged Sun.03:32
wasabiWhich isn't THAT hard to do yourself.03:33
moebius_but most of the official java stuff isn't in hoary03:33
moebius_which I gather his packages are available for03:33
wasabitrue03:33
moebius_although I'm not sure since I can't get into the repositories03:33
moebius_but if they are down I guess I can try apt pinning03:34
wasabiHeh. THis is that project run by that guy who said we should package sUn's jdk.03:34
wasabiand tried to creatively ignore the license issues.03:34
moebius_isn't there an official 1.5.0 package?03:35
wasabiFor Sun?03:35
wasabiNo.03:35
moebius_at least, something I read about in backports03:35
wasabiThose guys are also creatively ignoring the license.03:36
moebius_well, semi-official I should say03:36
wasabiie not "official03:36
moebius_that's the fun thing about ubuntu, like debian03:36
moebius_the levels of "officialness"03:36
moebius_not to knock it since I understand the issues behind it03:36
moebius_but it makes the symantecs annoying sometimes03:37
wasabiWhatcha mean? The fact that there are third parties?03:37
wasabiThere will always be third parties.03:37
moebius_I mean regarding how some are official ubuntu supported03:38
moebius_and some are ubuntu packaged but not supported03:38
moebius_and some are packaged but restricted and unsupported03:38
wasabiHmm. I can download Windows software packaged in .exe's from download.com03:38
wasabiThose aren't supported by MS. ;)03:39
moebius_I understand the whole issues03:39
moebius_it just sometimes makes it annoying when you're trying to talk about what is an "official" ubuntu package03:39
wasabiIt's official if you can find it in archive.ubuntu.com03:39
wasabiIt's supported if you can find it in main.03:40
jbaileyg'm Jerry03:40
wasabimornin03:40
moebius_like how Debian has non-free stuff on servers but they carefully explain how it is there strictly as a convenience and should in no way be misconstrued to be a part of the Debian project proper, etc03:40
moebius_apt-get -t breezy install eclipse-platform03:45
moebius_here goes...03:45
wasabiI mihg tnot recommend you do that. ;)03:51
wasabiI don't know what other things it will pull in.03:52
wasabiMaybe libc or something crazy03:52
moebius_hmm03:53
moebius_good point.03:53
wasabiif anything, you can recompile it.03:53
moebius_is apt-source up to snuff nowadays?03:56
wasabialways has been03:56
wasabierr03:56
wasabiapt-source? dunno03:56
wasabiapt-get source yes!03:56
moebius_hmm I guess that's it03:57
moebius_it's been a good while since I used Debian03:57
moebius_there was a lot of working going on to try to make source installs as easy as binary installs03:57
jbaileyI think apt-get -b source ...  will download and build it for you.03:58
jbaileyIf you do a wrapper around gcc you can do ccache, tweak options, etc.03:59
jbaileyJust have to be a bit careful then when doing an update, since with the md5sum mismatch, apt might attempt to get the pure version from the archive again.03:59
moebius_well I have breezy pinned to 1004:00
moebius_so as far as I gather it shouldn't pull in anything from breezy unless I tell it to explicitly04:00
