Burgundaviaseb128, I am also having a wierd resize issue with nautilus (new browwer mode). I suspect I may just have a borked nautilus12:03
sladenmjg59_: martinhj's Acer TravelMate 620 worked with 2.6.11-1-686 from hoary universe, doesn't work with current breezy 2.6.12 kernel, was anything added/changed to try and fix things up?  Apparently acpi-events aren't getting passed through12:03
Riddellmdz, Kamion: am I ok to upload a new koffice 1.4.1 i18n package?12:03

seb128Burgundavia: what kind of issue?12:07
Burgundaviaseb128, when I open nautilus, it flashes for about 1 sec to full screen, then down the remembered size12:08
Burgundaviaand i don't have a slow machine12:08
seb128weird12:09
whiprushI just noticed that today also12:09
tsenginfinity: deps seem resolveable12:09
whiprushalso when hitting alt-f2 it does some weird flashing thing12:09
tsenginfinity: by pbuilder wiht only main/restricted.12:10
Burgundaviawhiprush, it is jumping 2 workspaces left12:10
martinhjsladen: / mjg59_: another thing that does not work with the ubuntu kernels besides the kernel events is that the brightness of the screen does not change when I plug/unplug the cable.. it does with other kernels12:10
infinitytseng : Good to hear, cause I already gave it back.12:10
Burgundaviaseb128, basically, whenever it draws a new window, it is jumping 2 workspaces left12:10
tsenginfinity: /me fanboys12:11
tseng*hide*12:11
sladenmartinhj: the screen still works with the Ubuntu -686 kernel from universe?12:11
sladenmartinhj: screen brightness changing on AC change?12:11
Burgundaviawhiprush, can you confirm that that is what is happening to you?12:11
mjg59_martinhj: Yeah. Could you possibly try the latest 2.6.13-rc kernel?12:12
martinhjsladen: yes, it does12:12
tsengBurgundavia: were you the beagle + blam exploder dude?12:12

terrexhi friends, i've just upgraded from yesterday to today (libx11-6, gnome-control-center,..) and when i login, the splash screen freezes and neither nautilus nor gnome-panel load. So i must to select from GDM "failsafe xterm" and then starts metacity & gnome-panel manually. Also gnomemeeting and gaim don't want to start.12:57
Burgundaviaterrex, that is more a question of #ubuntu12:58
tsengBurgundavia: ok for the 3rd time now12:59
dokogood question. the cleanest thing would be to build nss and nspr from it's own source, use these for other packages, build the shared libs from these packages. if firefox needs it's own copy, then it can ship it's own, but should use it's own names for a libnss and libnspr. so first thing: compare the libs (separate source, mozilla, firefox)12:59
tsengBurgundavia: beagle needs an evolution-sharp update12:59

infinitybob2 : Both work, for different reasons.03:11
bob2hm03:11
infinitybob2 : My example puts CFLAGS in the environment, which is a variable configure happens to cherry-pick out of said environment, I believe your example has configure interpreting 'FOO=BAR' pairs on the command line as "private environment settings", and it sets those for itself.  Which has the exact same effect.03:12
mrd`Is not being able to login to Gnome a known issue for Breezy at the moment (other than my whining earlier)?03:13
infinitybob2 : Something along those lines, anyway.  Either way, my example works fine to fix \sh's problem, and I don't much care if it makes an autotools maintainer or two cry (in fact, I'd prefer if it did..)03:13
bob2hahaha03:13
infinitybob2 : I'm not sure how much of the environment configure preserves, but I'd be willing to bed that for anything other than CC, CXX, CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS, and LDFLAGS, you're correct, having it in the shell's environment won't work, but having it in configure's command line will.03:16

OddAbe19what exactly is Cairo? i was reading the site... is it just a speed/ image improvement for GTK and Icons?03:32
jdubOddAbe19: it's an API for vector-based drawing that can use different backends for rendering (such as GL and printing)03:33

danielsfabbione: er, I think to get rid of _XOPEN_SOURCE ... why?06:55
fabbionei think that it did reintroduced temporary the libXcursor.la thingy06:56
fabbioneor one of the package hasn't been B-D versioned properly..06:56
fabbionei did build kdelibs way later than the other arches06:56
fabbioneand i got libtool: link: `/usr/lib/libXcursor.la' is not a valid libtool archive06:57
fabbionechecking now what is still bringing it06:57
danielsoh, I removed libXcursor.la06:57
fabbioneprobably something on sparc still knows about it06:57
fabbionethat can only happen if there is a wrong versione B-D or uncatched06:58
infinityInstall kdelibs' build-deps, and rgrep Xcursor.la /usr/lib06:58
fabbioneinfinity: that's what i am already doing :)06:58
fabbionei think it's going to take me less time to rebootstrap breezy than to fix it06:59
infinity(Note that tightly versioned build-deps, while handy for the buildds RIGHT NOW, won't make a likc of difference for bootstrappability, because the problem can't "come back" once all the old sources are gone)06:59

fabbioneinfinity: yes. given that you build everything in the right order and everything is B-D properly07:00
fabbionebut if there are leftovers it makes a difference07:00
infinityYou can definitely build everything in the right order now, afaict.07:00
fabbioneinfinity: not gnome..07:00
fabbionebecause gnome apps didn't get versioned B-D love07:01
fabbioneonly the libs07:01
infinityIt's just building against a slightly older breezy (say, a few weeks) that might not be perfect.  I'm not sure if that's worth caring about, but if you find things that should have tighteneed build-deps, let me know.07:01
fabbioneand that's not even completely true07:01
fabbioneinfinity: gtk+2.0 was supposed to have B-D to avoid old binpackges with _XOPEN07:01
fabbionefact is that it did build on sparc and still had XOPEN07:01
infinityProbably because one or two X libs got missed, those I fixed later.07:02

=== fabbione hits the keyboard
fabbionethat's just not the way it should be...07:09
infinityfabbione : Right, but the question is "can the problem come back if we build from scratch?" (and the answer is "no").  We could spend months trying to support "building every package against every possible combination of build-deps that used to be in breezy but aren't anymore".07:10
infinityAnd yes, I've noticed that a lot of uploaders don't prebuild. :/07:10
fabbioneinfinity: yes, i understand and agree07:10
infinityNot much I can do about that, except maybe not-for-us someone's pet package until they listen to reason.07:10
fabbionebut that makes normal building a pain07:10

fabbioneif we start building in the wrong order on old machines07:11

davydyou may just have been bitten by the bug I was12:31
davydupgrade gnome-session to ubuntu312:31
DizietI'm using the colony 2 CD install and haven't upgraded anything yet.12:32
LathiatDiziet: you however need a loopback interface12:33
davydthat is true12:33
LathiatDiziet: and if you dont have a loopback interface your system is broken :)12:33
davydand localhost should be in your /etc/hosts12:33

jdthoodDiziet: I'm glad you brought that up.12:54
jdthoodthom tells me that you are now taking care of network-manager.12:54
jdthoodI'd like to get n-m playing nicely with resolvconf12:55
DizietUm!  I'm only here on Thursdays, to a first approximation.  So perhaps me being in the `middle' so to speak is not ideal ...12:55
Dizietn-m> Quite so.12:55
DizietAre we going to have resolvconf then ?12:55
=== Yvonne [~fsck@cn-sdm-cr02-2552.dial.kabelfoon.nl] has joined #ubuntu-devel
jdthoodI don't know.  I am just the author/debian maintainer12:56
jdthoodCurrently n-m Depends on resolvconf, so if n-m is going to be in Breezy then so should resolvconf, obviously12:56
DizietI missed the bit in the n-m source code where it drives resolvconf.12:57
jdthoodIt doesn't, SFAIK12:57
Lathiati thought it does12:58
DizietSo in what sense does it depend on it ?12:58
Lathiatbut like12:58
Lathiatit was using bind912:58
jdthoodThe package Depends on resolvconf12:58
Lathiatand writing out a config for it12:58
Lathiatso i dont really see the use for resolvconf in that situation12:58
Dizietjdt: Yes, but why ?12:58
Dizietlath: Quite so.12:58
Lathiatother than that using bind9 like that is crack12:58
DizietUm, yes, we should get rid of bind9.  We're going to use dnsmasq instead.12:58
Lathiatok so even still12:58
Lathiatusing dnsmasq, resolvconf has no purpose12:59
DizietIf dnsmasq turns out to be too broken we can probably fix something up quickly that'll be better than nothing.12:59
jdthooddnsmasq works very well12:59
Dizietlath: No, it has the purpose that the patch we have to make to n-m isn't silly.12:59
Dizietjdt: Oh, good :-).12:59
jdthoodAnd it already works with resolvconf12:59
DizietIf we make n-m drive resolvconf then all `just works' ha ha.12:59
jdthoods/ha ha//01:00
LathiatDiziet: it just works with bind9/dnsmasq01:00
DizietThere's code to drive dnsmasq in there ?  Did I miss that ?01:00
Lathiatfor bind901:00
Lathiatdnsmasq isnt done yet afaict01:00
DizietYes, I saw the code to drive bind9.  That's just barmy.01:00
jdthooddnsmasq has been around a long time.  It's stable.01:00
jdthoodAnd resolvconf already drives it.01:01
jdthoodSo all n-m has to do is call resolvconf to tell it the nameserver addresses obtained via DHCP.01:01
jdthood... by n-m's private DHCP client.01:01
DizietThe right answer is for n-m to speak to resolvconf.  Then (a) our stuff just works nicely and (b) people who aren't using dnsmasq can do something else 'cos resolvconf gives a sensible interface.01:01
Dizietjdt: Right.01:01
jdthoodThis also provides for graceful starting and stopping of n-m.01:02
Lathiatexcept that that doesnt actually work01:02
=== jan1 [~jani@iv.ro] has left #ubuntu-devel []
jdthoodLathiat: what doesn't work?01:03
Lathiatjdthood: if you stop n-m, starting it again results in it being useless01:03
DizietStarting and stopping of n-m ?  Why would it want to start and stop ?01:03
jdthoodOh.01:03
LathiatDiziet: because if i want to do my own thing with the interfaces01:03
Lathiatif i dont stop n-m, it eats them01:03
DizietOh, I see.  Yes, that makes sense.01:03
DizietSo you're saying that when you start it again it doesn't work for some reason.01:04
Lathiatright01:04
Lathiatat least a few weeks ago01:04
jdthoodWell, it is beta software.01:04
jdthoodNot even.01:04
jdthoodIt's improving quickly, though.01:05
Lathiatelmo, infinity: can i get lathiat@bur.st whitelisted for changes?01:05

mjg59_seb128: Easiest way to do this may be to change the default values in the schemas?04:40
seb128k, so I've time :)04:40
mjg59_seb128: Yeah04:40
pittiseb128: if we can avoid splitting the langpacks, then it would be even better, but that depends on the rosetta activity (I need the tarball for that)04:40
seb128mjg59_: yeah, changing the schemas seems to be the right way for that04:40
mvopitti: disabeling it globally once one user has seen it is tricky because the file is stored in /var/lib/update-notifier/user.d04:41

seb128mjg59_: put that to bugzilla please, easier to keep track of it this way04:44

=== spacey [~spacey@87.76.17.34] has joined #ubuntu-devel
pittimdz: my plan was: if there are so many actual updates from rosetta that the update packages would grow too big to include them on the CDs, I'll go ahead with splitting05:42
pittimdz: if they are relatively small, we can maybe ship them in addition05:42
mdzpitti: right05:42
pittimdz: the alternative would be to not ship rosetta updates on CDs05:43
pittiand just support downloading them from the network05:43
pittibut then we can't install them by default and the user had to manually install the package05:43

dokoseb128: your argument for reverting the firefox change isn't really convincing: basically you say: I return to the broken behaviour because it works for me, and I don't care about others :-/05:52
pittiseb128: meh, merely recompiling doesn't help05:53
seb128doko: we talked about it with pitti here and we agreed on that05:54
seb128pitti: :(05:54
seb128pitti: and yep, right click should open a menu05:54
pittidoko: basically we said: "we return to a way that at least works until somebody actually fixes the moz libs to work with epy"05:54
pittiseb128: D'oh, so what now? </helpless>05:55
seb128pitti: what version of epiphany/firefox do we have? I'll ping upstream05:55
dokoI'll depend on mozilla-dev again, so I don't care about it anymore. but your're just wrong with the "fix"05:56
pittipiphany-browser | 1.7.3-0ubuntu1 | http://archive.ubuntu.com breezy/main Sources05:56

pittiepiphany-browser | 1.6.1-0ubuntu2 | http://archive.ubuntu.com hoary/main Sources05:56
seb128doko: everybody is too busy to fix it, and we can't stay for weeks with GNOME ftbfsing05:56
pittiseb128: I need to fix 1.4.4, I can't just upload 1.7.3, or this "new upstream" mess will never end05:56
seb128doko: out of this your "fix" is just "I remove the possibility to use firefox .pc files because it uses a copy of the libs"05:57
pittiseb128: it seems that the API of mozilla-dev didn't actually change syntactically, but semantically it seems05:58
seb128pitti: upstream knows about that usually05:58
seb128pitti: what version of mozilla ? 1.7.10 ?05:58
seb128pitti: BTW how did you fix the bonobo-activation error?05:59
seb128doko: BTW what is your issue with using /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/*.so exactly? Out of the fact that the lib should be packaged at one place to /usr/lib ?06:00
pittiseb128: yes, 1.7.1006:00
pittiseb128: I installed the warty version of epy in breezy :-)06:01
seb128pitti: and what is the issue? doesn't build? crash?06:01
pittiseb128: right-click (context menu) and middle-click (open in new tab) are broken06:01
pittiseb128: otherwise it works fine06:01
pittiseb128: breaking these mouse buttons seems to be pretty common06:01
pittiseb128: infinity broke them on backporting patches for warty, I broke the middle button on backporting for hoary...06:02
seb128pitti: <chpe> seb128: looks like the standard problem... was ephy recompiled with 1.7.10 ?06:02
dokoseb128: it doesn't provide the nss headers and library I need06:02
pittiseb128: in moz and ffox, the function of mouse buttons is defined in javascript (browser.js)06:02
seb128<chpe> hmmm weird06:03
pittiseb128: same behavior with the already compiled warty version and recompiling against 1.7.10 (which works fine)06:03
=== mpt [~mpt@200-171-140-32.dsl.telesp.net.br] has joined #ubuntu-devel
seb128pitti: you built the warty version on a warty box with 1.7.10, that's it?06:03
pittiseb128: right06:04
pittiseb128: since warty-security now has 1.7.1006:04
seb128doko: just build with mozilla so, changing firefox the way you did doesn't help you to use firefox and break it for GNOME06:04
pittidoko: one idea was to copy the ffox version to the moz source package and check whether all browsers work with that06:04
seb128pitti: chpe ask for a build log ... do you have this?06:05

pittione day I'll fix that06:06
=== seb128 uses debuild and no ccache
pittiseb128: after rebuilding ffox, moz, and tbird 50 times in a week you will use ccache, too :-)06:07
seb128pitti: chpe says usually rebuilding is enough ... need the log to say something else :p06:07
seb128pitti: right, probably :)06:08

jasoncohenpitti, why did warty never receive a patch? was it just too difficult to backport fixes?10:42
pittijasoncohen: we started with backporting and went on, but the vulns came faster than we could keep up10:42
pittijasoncohen: and it was very hard to backport to 0.8.310:42
pitti0.9.310:42
ajmitchmorning pitti 10:43
pittithis was really unfortunate10:43
pittiHi ajmitch 10:43
jasoncohenpitti, well, can you imagine backporting fixes from mozilla 1.7.8 to mozilla 1.7.0 from 3 years earlier10:44
jasoncoheni can't imagine the amount of code changes that must have occured10:44
jasoncohenthat was the situation with woody10:44
pittiI can imagine it10:44
pitti1.7.0? 1.4.0 rather?10:45
jasoncohenhttp://packages.debian.org/oldstable/web/mozilla10:45
jasoncohen1.0.0-0.woody.110:46
jasoncoheni read the bug reports...the developers weren't even sure if it was still vulnerable10:46
jasoncohen*if it was vulnerable10:46
pittithat actually worked?10:46
ajmitchtrue, 18 months of security updates for fewer packages is easier than ~3 years for all of debian :)10:47
jasoncohen4 years10:47
jasoncohen3 years + 1 year after release of sarge10:47
ajmitchah yes10:47
jasoncohenand the security team can't prioritize10:48
pittijasoncohen: it might be that Sarge now will receive new upstream versions of at least tbird10:48
jasoncohenneither mozilla nor firefox have been patched10:48
pittijasoncohen: at least that's the maintainer's intention10:48
jasoncohenpitti, heh, you think so? debian developers are pretty anal about backporting all security fixes10:49
jasoncohenthey refused to use a new mozilla version in woody10:49
pittijasoncohen: actually we are, too, that's why it took so long10:49
pittijasoncohen: new upstreams just break so many things, see warty langpacks and epy10:49
pittiwhich shows that our general approach with backporting is richt10:49
pittiright, even10:49
jasoncohenyes it is but not with mozilla products10:49
jasoncohenthere are just too many security fixes, too often10:50
pittithat's not the problem10:50
jasoncohenand neither debian nor ubuntu could keep up10:50
jasoncohenthen what is?10:50
pittibut the code is too complicated and intertwinded10:50
jasoncohenah10:50
dredgchanges between versions that break backported code don't help10:50
pittiit uses 34 API levels, javascript all over the place, garnished with 10 XML formats...10:51
jasoncohenwell, didn't you know that would happen? a day after 1.0.5 was released, 1.0.6 came out10:51
pittijasoncohen: and they can't resist from adding new features to new upstream versions10:51
jasoncohento fix that very problem10:51
ajmitchso that's why noone likes taking responsbility for firefox :)10:51
pittiajmitch: right, 'cause that package is TEH SUCK10:51
pittiit doesn't even have a patch system10:52
pittimozilla and tbird are much better packaging-wise (of course that doesn't help to cure the upstream mess)10:52
jasoncohenand the mozilla team doesn't really like distribution patches10:52
pittijasoncohen: well, the patches are there10:52
jasoncohenthey would prefer to have users use the upstream release from a QA standpoint10:53
jasoncohensince they hear the complaints when something doesn't work10:53
pittijasoncohen: I ported them to our versions, that was not a problem (well, it took some 40 hours, but oh well)10:53
pittijasoncohen: the problem is that it is impossible to find the patches that fix the regressions from the security patches10:53
jasoncohenit may not be the perfect solution but using the new upstream release certainly assures quick security updates and will save you a lot of time and grief10:53
pittijasoncohen: and they still use cvs10:53
pittijasoncohen: that's what we finally concluded as well10:54
pittijasoncohen: I tried to work with their cvs, but it's a pain10:54
jasoncohenusers should just install extensions manually using the xpis10:54
pitticvs so much sucks, especially if you maintain some 40 branches in it10:54
jasoncohenand then upgrade after they upgrade firefox10:54
jasoncohenthat seemed to be part of the problem with the the last security backport (to 1.0.5 fixes)10:55
jasoncohenwhat is debian doing about firefox/mozilla?10:56
=== shackan [~shackan@host97-80.pool8257.interbusiness.it] has joined #ubuntu-devel
pittijasoncohen: they won't have much choice than to upgrade to new upstreams10:57
jasoncohendebian's security team seems to prioritize server apps. i see updates for obscure little server packages which are probably used by very few people while the big desktop packages aren't fixed10:57
pittijasoncohen: RedHat had employed an upstream hacker to do security updates for mozilla stuff10:57
pittijasoncohen: and yet they put 1.0.6 into their enterprise distro (!)10:57
Lathiatpitti: heh10:57
jasoncohenheh10:57
jasoncohenwhat do you think of what they do with fedora?10:58
jasoncohenbackporting some and new upstream for others10:58
pittijasoncohen: which indicates that two Ubuntu hackers with no code knowledge can't possibly be better than that and win10:58
jasoncoheni've never really understood fedora's security update policy but it seems to work. they get updates out quickly11:00
=== ajmitch wonders why logrotate's selinux wishlist bug was only just closed in the last couple of days
jasoncohenwhy does mozilla refer to security problems by their own MFSA #s rather than the CANs?11:01
ajmitchah, I was looking at wrong version in changelog11:01
ajmitchbother, it's a new upstream version too11:01
pittijasoncohen: they can get them immediately, I suppose, and they have their own schema (much like our USNs)11:01
pittijasoncohen: often, the CAN assignment slacks for a while11:02
pittijasoncohen: but they should indeed use them more regularly11:02
pittijasoncohen: mapping a MFSA to a CAN is nontrivial11:02
jasoncohenthey should at least give the CANs as well11:02
pittijasoncohen: they do in a few MFSAs11:03
jasoncohenthat's one reason i didn't like backporting of security fixes on firefox11:03
pittiwhich reason?11:03
dredgheh, for added fun, see redhat's changelogs.11:03
jasoncohennot all of the fixes in the new upstream were always backported at one time and it was difficult to tell what was missing since the USNs used CAN #s and mozilla uses MFSA's11:03
dredgthey're _nasty_11:03
pittijasoncohen: hm, sorry; but we generally use CANs since they are much easier to track and more standardized11:04
jasoncohenno- i agree with you11:04
jasoncoheni want mozilla to follow the standard and give the CANs too11:04
jasoncohenbut why did you release a patched firefox versoin without all the fixes from the upstream?11:05
jasoncohen*the security fixes11:05
pittijasoncohen: hm, I did? you mean the 1.0.2 backported version?11:06

jasoncohenpitti, hey- USN-134-1 included all the fixes from 1.0.411:11
jasoncoheni was referring to USN-124-111:12
jasoncohenit only lists 7 CANs and there are 9 MFSAs...did the CANs include multiple MFSAs?11:12
pittiprobably two MFSAs didn't apply to us, lemme check11:15
jasoncohenMFSA-2005-33 is linked to CAN-2005-0989 which isn't in the USN11:15
jasoncohenalso, security patches are sometimes spread over more than one security advisory so you dont' know if you have all the security updates from the current upstream release11:16
jasoncohenfor an example see USN-139-1 AND USN-140-1 - from gaim 1.3.111:17
jasoncohenthe updates were seperated over 5 days11:17
jasoncohen*seperated by 5 days11:17
pittijasoncohen: for example, MFSA-2005-33 was already fixed before the hoary release11:18
pittihttp://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/main/m/mozilla-firefox/mozilla-firefox_1.0.2-0ubuntu5.1/changelog11:18
jasoncohenthat and the time it takes to patch is really the only advantage of getting new upstream releases. you know you're up to date & secure11:18
pittiin 1.0.2-0ubuntu411:18
pittijasoncohen: oh, gaim patches are easy11:18
pittijasoncohen: I already fixed the gaim package before it became public and released it immediately11:19
pittijasoncohen: and I got to know the other issue only a bit later11:19
pittijasoncohen: but a mere DoS wasn't something I needed to particularly prioritize11:19

Mezpitti, did you package FF yourself, or were you working from debain stuff?11:24
Mezcause I'm thinking of making a firefox-preview release (for those who want to play with 1.5) and was wondering the best place to start11:25
jasoncohenMez, hey, what's going to happen with backports-staging? currently some of the staging packages can't be used with backports because they require libraries from the old backports like libgcc111:25
Mezwhether I should start witha  new package, or wheter I should work from the current one11:25
pittiMez: we base all packages on the Debian ones11:25
pittiMez: debian/ is fine, but you should definitively add a patch system to ti11:26
Mezjasoncohen, they shouldnt depend on libgcc1 from backprots - that's just bad packaging11:26
pittiMez: moz and tbird have patch systems, but ffox doesn't11:26
Mezpitti: It's not a problem to add a patch system to it ... just wondering about making a preview release (for universe of course)11:26
jasoncohenMez, i know that, heh11:26
pittiMez: would rock :-)11:26
Mezwhat's your opinion - is it worth packaging up?11:26
pittiMez: well, if you want to, sure; and we can use the packaging for the final release11:27
pittiMez: but please ask the Debian maintainer for cooperation11:27
quittei have a problem compiling gtk-doc. the error i get is:checking for DocBook XML DTD V4.1.2 in XML catalog... not found11:27

pittiI just didn't test the extensions everybody else seemed to deem as utterly important11:54
jasoncohenpitti, if its any condolance, it worked fine for me11:55
jasoncohenand i use tab browser preferences11:55
jasoncoheni just download the xpi myself rather than using the packaged version11:55
pittijasoncohen: it worked for me, too, otherwise I wouldn't have released it :-)11:55
maswanHmm.. I wonder if you could put a cost at supporting a package over the lifetime of a release11:55
pittibut thanks :-)11:56
jasoncohenpitti, is an 18 month security support cycle reasonable? is it more difficult to support warty now for example than hoary?11:57
pittijasoncohen: for most packages it's not, and I think 18 months is reasonable11:58
jasoncohenit seems that other than mozilla/firefox/thunderbird, all of the updates have been simultaneous on both warty & hoary11:58
