| ogra | Burgundavia, the above :) | 12:03 |
| Burgundavia | ogra, ubuntu-lite? | 12:04 |
| ogra | Burgundavia, and graphical config tools... which is a bit odd for a bounty since all thing listed on the spec are already done fine upstream.... so the SoC student had not many options... but he made the best out of it :) | 12:05 |
| ogra | Burgundavia, yep | 12:05 |
| Burgundavia | ogra, yes. I was wondering the same thing. But the ndisgui thing is worth it | 12:05 |
| ogra | you already saw it ? | 12:07 |
| Burgundavia | yes | 12:07 |
| Burgundavia | poofyhairgui on the forums found it and posted it about it | 12:07 |
| ogra | heh | 12:08 |
| ogra | it'll be in universe soon ... | 12:08 |

| ogra | heh.... after they finished their projects... let them focus on their work now ;) | 12:25 |
| Burgundavia | I think that people see Ubuntu has this giant monlithic entitiy | 12:25 |
| Burgundavia | and they think it is hard to get involved | 12:25 |
| HrdwrBoB | Burgundavia: but they see it as that because it works | 12:25 |
| Burgundavia | I spend a lot of words/time on the forums telling people to join the official efforts (motu, doc team, etc.) | 12:26 |
| HrdwrBoB | a whole lot of software that generally works well and together appears every six months | 12:26 |
| ajmitch | they see the developers as far above the ordinary users? | 12:26 |
| Burgundavia | yes | 12:27 |
| Burgundavia | and Ubuntu is one of the easiest distros to get involved in | 12:27 |
| ajmitch | I'd say | 12:27 |
| ogra | thats because we have a split community.... forum people vs. mailing list people | 12:27 |
| === ajmitch rarely reads the forums | ||

| Burgundavia | most developers rarely read the forums | 12:28 |
| HrdwrBoB | I rarely read either | 12:28 |

| Burgundavia | if you took all my posts on the forums, probably over half are "file a bug, devs won't read it here" | 12:28 |
| tseng | if it wasnt for you, the bug would sit there forever | 12:28 |
| azeem | the forums need to be more bidirectionally gated, to unite the communities | 12:29 |
| paolo | Do you know which xorg packages defines "string literal" colors (if any) ? | 12:29 |

| pitti | seb128: still here? | 12:32 |
| seb128 | yep | 12:33 |
| pitti | seb128: I pinpointed the bug on amd64, but it's nontrivial to solve | 12:33 |
| pitti | seb128: is there any gdk function to determine the work area? | 12:33 |
| seb128 | oh, what is it? | 12:33 |
| pitti | seb128: i. e. the screen size minus panels etc. | 12:34 |
| pitti | seb128: it calls XGetWindowProperty to determine the desktop work area size | 12:34 |
| pitti | seb128: on i386 this returns 32 bit ints, on amd64 it returns 64 bit numbers | 12:35 |
| pitti | (in an array) | 12:35 |
| pitti | so the coordinates are totally off on amd64 and you can't see the window | 12:35 |
| seb128 | there is no gdk function for that afaik | 12:35 |
| pitti | but instead of brutally fixing that, I'd rather use a gdk function to determine the desktop size | 12:35 |

| pitti | seb128: darn | 12:35 |
| pitti | seb128: it almost seems that XGetWindowProperty has a bug... | 12:36 |
| seb128 | nautilus seems to do | 12:37 |
| seb128 | XGetWindowProperty (display, RootWindow (display, screen_num), | 12:37 |
| seb128 | XInternAtom (display, "ESETROOT_PMAP_ID", False), | 12:37 |

| seb128 | &data_esetroot); | 12:37 |
| pitti | and I would feel bad if I just worked around that | 12:37 |
| paolo | I think the problem is that xorg misses some packages other than the ones listed in the mail pitti pointed me before. | 12:37 |
| seb128 | retval = XGetWindowProperty (GDK_DISPLAY (), GDK_ROOT_WINDOW (), | 12:37 |
| seb128 | window_id_atom, 0, 1, False, XA_WINDOW, | 12:37 |

| pitti | &type, &format, &num, | 12:37 |
| pitti | &leftovers, &ret_workarea); | 12:37 |
| pitti | seb128: format is 32 on amd64, although it returns 64 bit ints | 12:38 |
| pitti | so | 12:38 |
| paolo | Could you tell me in which package is "showrgb" ? | 12:38 |
| pitti | guint32 *workareas = (guint32 *)ret_workarea; | 12:38 |

| pitti | rect.y = workareas[disp_screen * 4 + 1] ; | 12:38 |

| ogra | why dont you use GDK_ROOT_WINDOW () instead ? | 12:38 |
| pitti | ogra: and determine its size? | 12:39 |

| ogra | pitti, gdk_window_get_geometry () | 12:47 |
| Kamion | paolo: http://packages.ubuntu.com/; but (a) it may be out of date and (b) showrgb is probably just missing at the moment, due to the in-progress xutils reorg | 12:47 |
| ogra | pitti, http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gdk/gdk-Windows.html#gdk-window-get-geometry | 12:47 |
| paolo | Kamion, I was searching for that because of this error running emacs: 'Undefined color: "black"'. And #freedesktop guys told me that string literals are defined in some file belonging to showrgb or something. | 12:48 |
| pitti | ogra: doesn't fit, take a penalty card :-) | 12:48 |
| ogra | heh | 12:49 |

| luis_ | yes, because weather here in boston is just like the weather in miami! | 01:41 |

| mjg59 | daniels: I've seen it to | 03:55 |
| mjg59 | o | 03:55 |
| marcin | hi all | 04:06 |
| marcin | I got a propably simple question... but I cannot find an answer myself | 04:06 |
| marcin | how you guys build packages in this way that they got *-ubuntu[somebuildversion] suffix? | 04:07 |
| bddebian | marcin: It comes from the changelog | 04:07 |
| daniels | mjg59: it used to happen in the pre-hoary days, and I don't see what could've changed to make it come back. of course, neither can I remember what I changed to fix it, exactly ... | 04:07 |
| === shaya [n=spotter@user-0ccembr.cable.mindspring.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| === shaya pokes mdz | ||
| ajmitch | daniels: I still get that, it came back recently | 04:09 |
| marcin | bddebian: so for example: wget (1.9.1-10ubuntu2.1) in changelog does this trick? | 04:09 |
| marcin | bddebian: and in fact - I know that 1.9.1 is version | 04:09 |
| daniels | headdesk | 04:09 |
| marcin | bddebian: but what 10 and 2.1 is? | 04:09 |
| marcin | bddebian: (in 10ubuntu2.1 suffix) | 04:10 |
| bddebian | Hmm, I haven't seen a suffix like 2.1 | 04:10 |
| marcin | bddebian: well is is in ubuntu hoary - wget package - for example | 04:10 |
| Kamion | marcin: generally because there had already been a -10ubuntu3 in breezy but a security fix to -10ubuntu2 needed to happen in hoary | 04:11 |
| Kamion | (guessing) | 04:11 |
| shaya | Kamion and they didn't want to go -10unbuntu2hoary1 :) | 04:11 |
| Kamion | shaya: that would be really rather redundant and unhelpful, if you think about it | 04:11 |
| shaya | it was a joke :) | 04:12 |
| shaya | anyways | 04:12 |
| shaya | is there a libgl-xorg-dev package anywhere? | 04:12 |
| Kamion | codenames like "hoary" don't sort well | 04:12 |
| Kamion | shaya: libgl1-xorg-dev | 04:12 |
| marcin | Kamion: so this thing after 'ubuntu' is something like build version in rpms? | 04:12 |
| shaya | Kamion: aptitude is giving me serious issues | 04:12 |
| Kamion | marcin: no | 04:13 |
| Kamion | shaya: it's fixed, may still be propagating to your mirror | 04:13 |
| marcin | Kamion: hmm any naming convention guide? | 04:13 |
| shaya | hmm | 04:13 |
| Kamion | marcin: everything after the - is the package revision (as opposed to the upstream version number) | 04:13 |
| shaya | I use archive.ubuntu.com | 04:13 |
| Kamion | marcin: "ubuntu" is an indicator that we have made substantive changes in Ubuntu so we shouldn't automatically sync new versions from Debian, and instead must merge them | 04:14 |
| Kamion | marcin: the bit before "ubuntu" is generally the revision of the corresponding package in Debian | 04:14 |
| Kamion | normally speaking, the bit after "ubuntu" is just an integer. Don't mess about with extra 2.1 bits unless you know what you're doing and absolutely have to | 04:15 |
| Kamion | so typically, Debian has 2.3.1-1, first Ubuntu revision against that is 2.3.1-1ubuntu1, second is 2.3.1-1ubuntu2, etc.; if Debian release 2.3.1-2, then the merged version would be 2.3.1-2ubuntu1, etc. | 04:16 |

| marcin | Kamion: hmmm | 04:21 |
| marcin | Kamion: ok then when we need to change from 1ubuntu to 2ubuntu? | 04:21 |
| marcin | Kamion: ahh I think I get it - first digit is _Debian_ build indicator and last number after 'ubuntu' thing is _Ubuntu_ build indicator | 04:23 |
| marcin | Kamion: right? | 04:23 |
| Lathiat | mjg59: are you interested in hearing about usplash not working? | 04:25 |
| mdz | luis_: ubuntu-devel, yes | 04:25 |
| sladen | Lathiat: yes, in what case? | 04:26 |
| Lathiat | sladen: on my laptop, boots, screen goes blank, no hard disk activity, alt+sysrq+b works, capslock doesnt | 04:26 |
| Lathiat | hrm i just realised i have a vga=771 | 04:27 |
| Lathiat | maybe tahts interfering | 04:27 |
| sladen | Lathiat: it can't cope with vesa modes | 04:28 |
| Lathiat | also | 04:28 |
| Lathiat | it should respect nosplash | 04:28 |
| sladen | Lathiat: it should probably check for, and ignore modes | 04:28 |
| Kamion | marcin: right | 04:28 |
| Lathiat | or not havign 'splash' | 04:28 |
| sladen | Lathiat: from reading the code about an hour ago, it /should/ do that | 04:28 |
| Lathiat | (because i had to boot a livecd to uninstall and reinstall the kernel to be able to boot again) | 04:28 |
| Kamion | marcin: don't touch the bit before "ubuntu" unless you're merging new code from upstream or from Debian (which you generally shouldn't be doing at this stage of the release process without getting prior approval, anyway) | 04:29 |
| Lathiat | i tried recovery mode and changing splash to nosplash | 04:29 |
| Kamion | Treenaks: hmm, I read some documentation a bit more carefully, I think that hotplug thing is actually a busybox sed bug | 04:29 |
| Lathiat | ill try without vga= and see what happens | 04:29 |
| === BIGBRUNO [n=biglinux@200.196.122.39] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| marcin | Kamion: and what about new packages that doesn't exist in Debian repository? | 04:31 |
| ajmitch | marcin: they get -0ubuntu1, etc | 04:31 |
| Kamion | marcin: either versioned as if they were Debian packages, or as ajmitch says | 04:31 |
| sladen | Lathiat: 'splash' is not set for recovert mode. nothing knows about 'nosplash' it is 'splash' or '' | 04:31 |
| Lathiat | sladen: well if i set nosplash | 04:32 |
| Lathiat | sladen: thered be no splash | 04:32 |
| Lathiat | sladen: nor did it work in recovery mode | 04:32 |
| Kamion | I tend to use Debian-style versioning for new development, and -0ubuntu1 versioning for cases where we're temporarily running ahead of Debian | 04:32 |
| Lathiat | bbs | 04:32 |
| marcin | Kamion: ok | 04:32 |
| Lathiat | i saved the old initrd this time :) | 04:32 |
| Am|NickTaken | wtf, why does gmail-notify depend on straw (rss reader) | 04:33 |
| ajmitch | Kamion: we mandate -0ubuntu1 for universe new packages | 04:33 |
| sladen | Lathiat: nothing should happen at all in recovery mode. Is that what you see in your case? | 04:34 |
| Kamion | ajmitch: for universe that's reasonably sensible I guess, since much of that should be expecting similar packaging to show up in Debian as -1 | 04:35 |
| Kamion | ajmitch: however, I refer you to e.g. the recent usplash uploads | 04:35 |
| Lathiat | sladen: nope, it still screwed up, however i just found out that i want the second version that was uploaded as without vga=771 i saw a kernel panic after some random foo | 04:36 |
| Lathiat | (cus init died) | 04:36 |
| ajmitch | right, I mainly deal with packages that MOTUs review for universe | 04:37 |
| === Am|NickTaken is now known as Amaranth | ||
| ajmitch | where it's easiest just to have a consistent scheme, and try &get it into debian | 04:37 |
| sladen | Lathiat: okay, so a kernel panic. can you replicate it and record what the kernel paniced over? | 04:37 |
| marcin | Kamion: btw you want always follow debian repositories? | 04:37 |
| Lathiat | sladen: it had errors about the usplash_something-init, i saw a changelog entry about -s in the variables, so i'll get that new version and try it first | 04:37 |
| marcin | Kamion: or is this possible to create some really _different_ packages for ubuntu? | 04:38 |
| marcin | Kamion: (different - I mean different than in debian) | 04:38 |
| Kamion | marcin: we can and we have | 04:39 |
| Kamion | marcin: but try to limit it | 04:39 |
| Amaranth | should i uninstall usplash? :) | 04:39 |
| Kamion | marcin: the fewer *unnecessary* diffs we have versus Debian, the less work we have to do | 04:39 |
| sladen | Amaranth: is it giving you problems? | 04:40 |
| Kamion | sometimes the diffs are necessary, but don't do it just for the sake of it | 04:40 |
| Amaranth | sladen: I'm not comfortable booting up to a live cd to 'uninstall' my kernel to fix any potential problems :P | 04:40 |
| Lathiat | Amaranth: 'sok, backup your old initrd first ;p | 04:41 |
| Lathiat | (then use the power of grub ;p) | 04:41 |
| Amaranth | too late | 04:41 |
| Lathiat | Amaranth: nah just reinstall your kernel image | 04:41 |
| Lathiat | copy it | 04:41 |
| Lathiat | and then run mkinitramfs again | 04:41 |
| marcin | Kamion: ok anyway I want to package some software not much important for ubuntu | 04:41 |
| marcin | Kamion: and I think that I create these packages mainly for myself | 04:41 |
| Amaranth | Lathiat: ok, but if i just uninstall usplash and reinstall my kernel it should be fine, right? :) | 04:41 |
| Lathiat | Amaranth: i guess? | 04:42 |
| marcin | Kamion: especially while I want to break some debian rules (so propably no chance to adopt my package to debian) | 04:42 |
| === poningru [n=poningru@pool-70-110-71-222.tampfl.fios.verizon.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Kamion | marcin: the Debian policy is not there just for fun; it's a collection of good practice that's evolved over time. If you insist on breaking it you should be very sure of your reasons | 04:43 |
| marcin | Kamion: I think I'm sure - especially while some packages adopted by ubuntu from debian are not installable | 04:44 |
| Kamion | I would expect the universe folks to require Debian policy from new packages by default except where they've explicitly decided to do otherwise for good reasons, I think | 04:44 |
| Kamion | dude, uninstallability's just about dependencies, it's not generally policy | 04:45 |
| ajmitch | we do require policy compliance | 04:45 |
| marcin | Kamion: but it is only one reason | 04:45 |
| daniels | what reason is that? | 04:45 |
| sladen | Amaranth: can you boot using the recovery-mode ? | 04:45 |
| Amaranth | sladen: i haven't tried to reboot at all | 04:45 |
| marcin | Kamion: and another is that some things are installed with packages but not available for user due to screwed up config files | 04:46 |
| daniels | argh | 04:46 |
| daniels | mjg59: sessreg comes from the xdm source | 04:46 |
| Kamion | marcin: and you think Debian rules include "must be broken"? | 04:47 |
| marcin | Kamion: anyway I'm too tired now to explain all of this it's too late (4:47 here) | 04:47 |
| Kamion | marcin: some packages in Debian are buggy; that doesn't mean that fixing them involves breaking Debian rules | 04:47 |
| marcin | Kamion: well maybe not all debian rules | 04:47 |
| marcin | Kamion: to be more specific | 04:47 |
| marcin | Kamion: the thing I want to do is a bunch of packages for Emacs | 04:48 |
| marcin | Kamion: and debian policy for emacs is pretty good | 04:48 |
| marcin | Kamion: (overcomplicated - but good) | 04:48 |
| marcin | Kamion: but there is a lot of broken packages - broken in different ways | 04:49 |
| bob2 | how does any of this justify breaking policy? | 04:50 |
| marcin | Kamion: dependencies (for example: jde), broken config files (for example: dired-x - available in package but user needs to configure this by hand in .emacs file) | 04:50 |
| Kamion | so far it sounds like you're just saying "I need to fix stuff that's broken", which is fine | 04:51 |
| ajmitch | have you filed bugs in debian for these? | 04:51 |
| Kamion | the thing I'm boggling at is purely "can't fix without breaking [unspecified] Debian rules" | 04:52 |
| ajmitch | at least for the issues that come from debian | 04:52 |
| Kamion | that does happen, but it's rare, and I'd like to hear exactly what rules you think you have to break so that people can review that decision | 04:52 |
| marcin | ajmitch: not yet because I know that they will give me a million of reasons why their policy is the best one and they will tell me to shut up ;) | 04:52 |
| bob2 | so, your complaint is "Debian Emacs Policy section $blah is buggy"? | 04:53 |
| marcin | ajmitch: btw there are things that propably are ok in debian but not in ubuntu - like jde package - non installable in ubuntu due to problems with java | 04:53 |
| Kamion | Ubuntu's founded to a large extent on Debian policy; if you think the policy is broken, you need to explain *why* | 04:54 |
| Kamion | so that it can be fixed wherever's appropriate | 04:54 |
| daniels | (and fixing it will usually involve getting it fixed in Debian, also) | 04:55 |
| Amaranth | hrm | 04:57 |
| Amaranth | xnest installs into /usr/X11R6/bin/ | 04:57 |
| sladen | Amaranth: I'm lost. Are you wanting to uninstall because you're worried by other people's reports | 04:57 |
| Amaranth | sladen: yeah | 04:57 |
| Amaranth | sladen: doesn't matter though, i can't even make gdm work anymore :) | 04:57 |
| Amaranth | time to see if usplash cuts | 04:57 |
| Kamion | marcin: jde is uninstallable because bsh failed to build from source, which in turn is because kaffe is uninstallable; see http://people.ubuntu.com/~lamont/buildLogs/b/bsh/1.3.0-3/ | 05:00 |
| marcin | Kamion: I know that and I said that this is dependency problem | 05:01 |
| Kamion | marcin: in turn, kaffe looks like it simply needs to be rebuilt for the C++ transition | 05:01 |
| Kamion | I'll take care of that now | 05:01 |
| marcin | Kamion: anyway the thing is that I don't want to broke all debian rules for emacs | 05:01 |
| marcin | Kamion: I just want things to "just work" | 05:02 |
| marcin | Kamion: and the problem is that there is really a lot of things in debian packages for emacs | 05:02 |
| marcin | Kamion: that doesn't work at all - regarding if installed or not | 05:02 |
| ajmitch | Kamion: kaffe is on a list to be synced, I don't think the current version was building | 05:03 |
| Kamion | ajmitch: the current version *has* built | 05:03 |
| marcin | Kamion: because propably maintainters think that emacs users are advanced one and they don't provide almost any config settings for emacs | 05:03 |
| Kamion | marcin: so it sounds like you're attributing all sorts of awful motives to people that in all probability aren't there | 05:04 |
| bob2 | marcin: so, submit a patch for a sane default config | 05:04 |
| marcin | Kamion: and in this way every emacs user needs to spend a lot of time hacking .emacs file | 05:04 |
| ajmitch | Kamion: sorry, I was going by what other MOTUs had said | 05:04 |
| Kamion | you'll never find out if you don't talk to the maintainer who did it that way. :) | 05:04 |
| Kamion | we try to cooperate with Debian where possible, not just work around them :-) | 05:05 |
| marcin | Kamion: to make things _just work_ while it is common procedure in emacs world ( ;) ) I don't thing it is good for ubuntu image | 05:05 |
| Kamion | I have no objection to things just working - all I'm saying is that you seem to be being unduly pessimistic | 05:06 |
| marcin | Kamion: well it is pretty hard to work with debian maintainers while propably their packages are maintained in simmilar way to their debian-emacsen mailing list | 05:09 |
| marcin | Kamion: which is full of 'penis enlargement' spam stuff instead of real discussion | 05:10 |
| Kamion | problems with the lists have very little to do with quality of maintenance | 05:11 |

| Amaranth | well, i'm still here, i guess that's good :) | 05:12 |
| Amaranth | what i supposed to see any difference? | 05:12 |
| Amaranth | err, was | 05:12 |
| Kamion | anyway you should feel free to sort things out in Ubuntu; I'm just trying to encourage you not to give up on cooperating | 05:12 |
| marcin | Kamion: now I work on some build scripts that will create really huge amount of packages based on single *.el files | 05:13 |
| marcin | Kamion: (something simmilar to garnome scripts but my scripts will create *.debs with emacs things automatically) | 05:14 |
| marcin | Kamion: and these *.el libraries aren't packaged for debian yet | 05:14 |
| marcin | Kamion: so I'll try to follow debian policy this time | 05:15 |
| marcin | Kamion: but when I'll finish these packages I'm going to try some more difficult packages | 05:15 |
| marcin | Kamion: and then we'll see | 05:16 |
| marcin | Kamion: and now I need to go to bed, I'm too tired to talk logically | 05:16 |

| daniels | 46 will fix xnest and a couple of other small things. | 05:27 |
| Lathiat | yay xnest | 05:28 |
| Kamion | lamont-away: please dep-wait bsh on kaffe (>= 2:1.1.5-4); MOTU will need to sync to that to fix it, I think | 05:28 |
| Kamion | ajmitch: you were right, it does need to be synced; 2:1.1.5-3 has some silly hardcoded dependencies (debian/shlibs.local) that were removed in later versions | 05:29 |
| daniels | although, um, the server looks a little special on amd64 | 05:31 |

| Kamion | or at least a lot of stuff was failing to build with cryptic messages from apt, may not have been screwed chroots | 05:59 |
| infinity | The weirdly-fucked-up chroots were being caused by the dpkg segv, afaict. | 05:59 |

| Kamion | and it started happening at pretty much the same time | 06:00 |
| infinity | mesag-dev, actually, but yes, those packages are a nasty incestuous group. | 06:00 |
| Kamion | oh, it was libglu1-mesa-dev for me | 06:00 |
| infinity | Oh, interesting. | 06:00 |
| infinity | Well, I'll retry my testcase with the changes you've made and see if the dpkg segv is gone for me. | 06:00 |
| Kamion | did you manage to save a tar of /var/lib/dpkg/info and the .deb it was trying to install? | 06:00 |
| Kamion | would be nice not to lose the dpkg segv testcase | 06:01 |
| infinity | Installing one deb never did it for me. I had to install a massive set of packages in one rnu. | 06:01 |
| Kamion | I was having trouble reproducing it consistently without re-debootstrapping | 06:01 |
| infinity | s/rnu/run/ | 06:01 |
| infinity | elmo may or may not have taken a snapshot of the archive last night when we were disussing the issue. I'm hoping he did, if it's not magically fixed. | 06:01 |
| Kamion | well, we can always extract xorg -44 later at leisure | 06:01 |
| daniels | right. scott's fault. :) | 06:02 |
| Kamion | and appropriate matching mesa | 06:02 |
| Kamion | I tweaked libglu1-mesa-dev's libgl-dev alternatives, which will probably have helped matters too | 06:02 |
| daniels | Kamion: i keep a source morgue of every xorg upload since hoary (except a couple of the weird-shit random uploads in the week I was at LinuxTag, since they disappeared before I got back and caught up), so we can rebuild at will. | 06:02 |
| Kamion | but it's all uncomfortably debugging-by-voodoo | 06:02 |
| Kamion | I've been going around trying to get stuff updated to the newer package names so that we can demote-to-universe/remove the old ones | 06:03 |
| Kamion | which should also help consistency of hoary->breezy upgrades | 06:03 |
| ajmitch | if there's any name changes that are affecting universe, notification would be good | 06:04 |
| ajmitch | as I'm not sure if we're needing to rebuild packages with new build-deps yet or not | 06:04 |
| daniels | Kamion: the hillarious part of all your mesa changes is that libgl1-xorg* will cearse to exist before breezy's out | 06:05 |
| daniels | replaced by ... libgl1-mesa* | 06:06 |
| infinity | Kamion : The only way to get upgrade consistency will be if sometihng directly depends on libglu1-mes (etc), since everything that depends on libgl/libglu depends on virtual packages. | 06:06 |
| Kamion | daniels: yeah, I know, but in the meantime I really want to deconfuse germinate | 06:06 |
| Kamion | it was doing shit like pulling in mesag3 because it was the primary alternative from libglu1-mesa or something like that | 06:06 |
| Kamion | and that makes it hard to demote the old packages from main, which in turn means people are more likely to upload new stuff (build-)depending on the old names | 06:07 |
| daniels | hm | 06:08 |
| daniels | it should be letting the dependency be satisfied by the alternative anyway | 06:09 |
| infinity | Yay, my dpkg segv is still there. | 06:09 |
| Kamion | yeah, it wasn't though, I think because it looked at libglu1-mesa before looking at anything that depended directly on libgl1-xorg | 06:09 |
| daniels | huh | 06:10 |
| daniels | can't we all just use portage or something? | 06:10 |
| Kamion | germinate's ordering-dependent in some cases; we have a couple of seed workarounds for it, but the right answer is to make primary alternatives consistent in main at least | 06:10 |
| infinity | Kamion : Your mucking with package relations did nothing to help dpkg stop littering chroots. | 06:10 |
| infinity | (glad it helped germinate though) | 06:10 |
| Kamion | ah well | 06:10 |
| Kamion | grr | 06:11 |
| Kamion | daniels: please make libgl1-xorg.shlibs mention libgl1-xorg not xlibmesa-gl kthxbye | 06:11 |
| daniels | Kamion: *cough* | 06:11 |
| === Gman_ is now known as GmanAFK | ||
| infinity | Kamion : Has libgl1-mesa already been promoted to main? | 06:12 |
| Kamion | anyway, *my* primary alternative is to go to bed rather than poking at dependencies ... | 06:12 |
| infinity | Kamion : If so, it's more future proof for us to just change those shlibs to be "libgl1-mesa | libgl1" | 06:13 |
| infinity | (Since that's what we want in the end) | 06:13 |
| Kamion | infinity: no | 06:13 |
| infinity | Err, there is no libgl1-mesa. It's mesag3... And it needs love. | 06:13 |
| infinity | But, yeah. I should go hump mesa's leg for a bit or something. | 06:13 |
| Kamion | yeah, if that's going to take some complicated mesa/xorg interaction then I think I prefer the multi-step approach | 06:14 |
| Kamion | while taking the point about having to go back and do it all over again later, at least we only end up with one layer of old packages lying around in breezy if we don't get it done in time, rather than two | 06:14 |
| infinity | ;) | 06:15 |
| Kamion | and I really don't feel good about germinate sucking in stuff that's NBS from xorg :) | 06:15 |
| daniels | surely it should follow provides where the package is a pure virtual with only one provider | 06:15 |
| infinity | No arguments on that one. | 06:15 |
| Kamion | daniels: yes - such as? | 06:16 |
| daniels | Kamion: ... xlibmes-agl? | 06:16 |
| Kamion | xlibmesa-gl | 6.8.2-43 | breezy | amd64, hppa, i386, ia64, powerpc, sparc | 06:16 |
| Kamion | not pure virtual | 06:16 |
| daniels | oh, argh | 06:16 |
| daniels | can we please cull xlibmesa* from the archive? | 06:17 |
| Kamion | that's what I'm trying to arrange | 06:17 |
| infinity | If you drop xlibmesa completely, then the "xlibmesa-gl | libgl1" dep becomes a pure virtual. | 06:17 |
| elmo | don't | 06:17 |
| Kamion | hmm | 06:17 |
| elmo | it's not showing up in rene | 06:17 |
| elmo | which means something's still claiming to build it | 06:17 |
| elmo | pls fix that first | 06:17 |
| infinity | elmo : Not yet built on amd64, I assume that's the only issue. | 06:17 |
| infinity | (the new source, that is) | 06:17 |
| elmo | no, that doesn't matter | 06:17 |
| elmo | rene looks at the source, which is always the latest | 06:18 |

| daniels | (that's the changelog entry) | 06:18 |
| infinity | elmo : Did you snapshot the archive last night so we can reproduce that dpkg segv? (now would be fine too, I can still reproduce it as of right now) | 06:19 |
| Kamion | it's not in xorg -44.dsc | 06:19 |
| elmo | xfree86 | 06:19 |
| infinity | ! | 06:19 |
| elmo | claims to build it | 06:19 |
| elmo | infinity: no, sorry, I didn't think of a cunning way to do it and forgot/got distracted by terranova | 06:19 |
| Kamion | heh | 06:19 |
| daniels | elmo: i don't see how this is problematic | 06:19 |
| infinity | And why do we still have xf86 source packages at all? | 06:19 |
| elmo | daniels: because if you remove stuff a source package claims to build the buildds think it needs to be built? | 06:20 |
| elmo | xfree86 may have sneaked back in when I spethialed the sync blacklist a while back | 06:20 |
| daniels | elmo: right. so that's why we remove the source package that claims to build it. | 06:20 |
| elmo | daniels: sure - I was more objecting to the principle of forcibly removing stuff in rene's partial NBS list | 06:22 |
| daniels | elmo: yeah, fair enough | 06:22 |
| infinity | Objection duely noted. xfree86 source removal would be nice. :0 | 06:22 |
| daniels | if we could nuke xfree86, that would simplify a lot of things | 06:22 |
| Kamion | oh, argh, speaking of partial NBS | 06:22 |
| infinity | (probably would have been nice about a month ago...) | 06:22 |
| elmo | libxft1 | 4.3.0.dfsg.1-6ubuntu25 | amd64, i386, ia64, powerpc | 06:22 |
| Kamion | tseng: please stop mcs building mono-assemblies-arch, I didn't spot that | 06:22 |
| daniels | there's a lot of shit that's atrophied since hoary that would still be claimed by xfree86 | 06:22 |
| elmo | I take it we don't need that? | 06:22 |
| daniels | yeah | 06:22 |
| elmo | ok, removed, re-blacklisted | 06:22 |
| daniels | elmo: we don't need anything that xorg doesn't build today | 06:23 |
| ajmitch | Kamion: mcs source should be removed, it's all in the mono source package now | 06:23 |
| elmo | ------------------- Reason ------------------- | 06:23 |
| elmo | [rene] out damn spot, out | 06:23 |
| elmo | ;) | 06:23 |
| daniels | elmo: including libxp6, libxp-dev, libxaw8, libxaw8-dev, xmh, xdm (cough), xfs, etc | 06:23 |
| infinity | Man, Lady MacBeth was so mean to that dog. | 06:23 |
| daniels | elmo: heh | 06:23 |
| elmo | daniels: once xfree86 disappears, rene will do her thing and someone who's awake and with katie privs can kill the rest | 06:24 |
| daniels | elmo: awesome, cheers | 06:24 |
| Kamion | elmo: do I have to know anything special to remove mcs? just melanie in the obvious way? | 06:25 |
| Kamion | oh, sync blacklist, hmmmmmm | 06:25 |
| === Kamion runs away | ||
| elmo | it just a file dude | 06:25 |
| elmo | it's like the least katie part | 06:25 |
| ajmitch | mcs source isn't in sid either, from what I can see | 06:26 |
| Kamion | good point | 06:26 |
| elmo | kamion: but yeah, melanie just works, you might want to prefix the removal with '[rene] ' to avoid silly fascism checks | 06:26 |
| Kamion | how do we keep track of stuff removed from Debian? | 06:26 |
| elmo | I have something that parses removals.txt | 06:26 |
| elmo | I wrote it as punishment for logging the removals in such an incredibly unparseable format | 06:27 |
| elmo | I haven't run it since UVF tho | 06:27 |

| daniels | i think lamont should write more katie tools | 06:32 |
| daniels | that would be awesome | 06:32 |
| Kamion | elmo: btw, did I ever ask you, how do you NEW stuff straight into universe the way you seem to do? | 06:32 |
| elmo | Kamion: yeah, and I think I dodged the question, it's a disgusting hack | 06:32 |
| elmo | kamion: basically, the problem is the override-source's-idea-of-componet stuff is an old-school warthogs-era hack,and only exists in jennifer | 06:32 |
| elmo | lisa doesn't know how to do it | 06:32 |
| elmo | so my straight to unvierse stuff, adds the overrides semi-by-hand, then moves the upload from new back into unchecked | 06:33 |

| Kamion | ah, right, I had wondered if it was something like that since I noticed lisa really didn't like the whole idea | 06:33 |
| Kamion | after trying the obvious-looking thing in lisa and then having to unfuck the overrides | 06:34 |
| elmo | c.f. 'new_universe' alias the katie user has | 06:34 |
| elmo | for the 'semi-byhand' bit | 06:34 |
| elmo | oh it's a script in ~/bin/ actually | 06:34 |
| Kamion | niiiice | 06:35 |
| elmo | :> | 06:35 |
| elmo | yeah, not proud | 06:35 |
| Kamion | I guess that has trouble with contrib/ and non-free/ stuff from Debian too | 06:36 |
| elmo | one day... I'll fix lisa | 06:36 |
| elmo | kamion: or anything that mentions universe or multiverse, yes | 06:36 |
| daniels | i swear elmo and lamont are one and the same person | 06:37 |
| daniels | because I was actually joking about lamont writing bits of katie | 06:37 |
| daniels | now I'm not so sure | 06:37 |

| Mithrandir | jdub: yes. | 10:04 |
| jdub | also, really got to zoom in on user-benefit features | 10:05 |
| jdub | about-me, for instance, isn't a user-interesting feature | 10:05 |
| jamesh | sivang: those are warnings you should ignore | 10:05 |
| Burgundavia | jdub, what do you see those as? | 10:05 |
| sivang | jamesh: ok, what is the source for them? | 10:05 |
| jdub | so *some* breezy goals are user-interesting | 10:05 |
| jamesh | sivang: they can only be fixed by updating the packages owning each of those .m4 files | 10:05 |
| jdub | such as built in LTSP | 10:05 |
| jdub | easier to use file manager | 10:05 |
| Mithrandir | jdub: it's going to require some concentrated effort, though | 10:05 |
| Burgundavia | jdub, file manager is somewhat mentioned, but could be tied together more | 10:06 |
| jamesh | sivang: automake checks to make sure that autoconf macro definitions are of the form AC_DEFUN([NAME] , ...) rather than AC_DEFUN(NAME, ...) | 10:06 |
| jdub | Mithrandir: elite | 10:06 |
| sivang | jamesh: ah, I see | 10:06 |
| jsgotangco | built in LTSP sounds good but quite advanced | 10:06 |
| jdub | Burgundavia: yeah, bundle those micro-feature grains into user-benefit blobs :-) | 10:06 |
| jamesh | sivang: since M4 is a macro expansion language, the AC_DEFUN(NAME, ...) form is dangerous if the macro gets defined multiple times | 10:06 |
| jdub | jsgotangco: it can be explained pretty simply | 10:06 |
| jdub | can just point to more information | 10:07 |
| paolo | Which lisp is going to be builtin? | 10:07 |
| Burgundavia | those who know what LTSP means will be excited | 10:07 |
| jamesh | sivang: "AC_DEFUN(foo, bar)AC_DEFUN(foo, baz)" would define two macros: foo -> bar and bar -> baz | 10:07 |

| mdz | seb128: yes | 10:37 |
| seb128 | k, here is the issue | 10:37 |
| pitti | Hi carlos | 10:38 |
| seb128 | cairo has changed its soname ... they were moving the API from some time with .so.1 on purpose, and the API is declared stable now so they bumped it to .so.2 | 10:38 |
| carlos | morning | 10:38 |
| infinity | seb128 : Oh joy. | 10:39 |
| seb128 | but GTK using it, around ~70 main packages (200 packages) rdepends on libcairo1 | 10:39 |
| infinity | seb128 : API-compatible?... Cause a mass rebuild with no source changes isn't really tough. | 10:39 |
| seb128 | yep, API compatible with the current version | 10:39 |
| pitti | seb128: can't we do that after the next colony? | 10:39 |
| mdz | infinity: is NM going to happen or no? | 10:39 |
| seb128 | pitti: <seb128> mdz, Kamion: we are targetting a stable desktop this week to run a colony CD? | 10:39 |
| seb128 | pitti: that's why I ask ... | 10:40 |
| mdz | it's been too long since the last milestone; we need one as soon as possible | 10:40 |
| pitti | yes, this was planned for the feature freeze | 10:40 |
| seb128 | k | 10:40 |
| infinity | mdz : Are you okay with reverting the resolvconf attempt and going with bind9?... If so, then yes, I think I'm in a position to say "it'll be ready well before breezy" | 10:40 |
| seb128 | I'll delay the cairo change for after the next colony | 10:40 |
| mdz | infinity: the relevant deadline is feature freeze, rather than breezy release | 10:40 |
| infinity | mdz : Dropping bind9 loses functionality (like bind views for VPNs), as well as making things not quite work optimally. | 10:40 |
| seb128 | GTK 2.8 should be out this week too, I'll do both updates after colony | 10:40 |
| mdz | infinity: the issues with bind9 were resource consumption and security policy | 10:41 |
| infinity | mdz : Well, it won't be perfect for feature freeze, but I can get it "pretty good" in a day. | 10:41 |
| infinity | Resource consumption shouldn't be an issue, what's the security worry? | 10:41 |
| mdz | infinity: we can choke a bit on resource consumption; security needs to be addressed | 10:41 |
| mdz | infinity: no open ports in desktop | 10:41 |
| infinity | If we're only binding to localhost, it should be okay. | 10:41 |
| mdz | well, we weren't binding to localhost | 10:41 |
| infinity | Well, that's easily fixed, then. | 10:41 |
| Lathiat | mdz: it was but | 10:42 |
| mdz | I'm not convinced of that | 10:42 |
| Lathiat | another copy was running standard | 10:42 |
| mdz | but I hope so | 10:42 |
| Lathiat | from the init scfript | 10:42 |
| Lathiat | not sure how you can address that without breaking everyones bind9 installs by not starting it by default | 10:42 |
| infinity | mdz : Well, it's a tradeoff, cause allowing NM to depend on bind9 and rnu its own instance that only bindt o localhost means we need to ship a bind9 package that's DOA. | 10:42 |
| infinity | mdz : Then again, we shipped postfix DOA with the last release, so I suppose it's something we're used to. | 10:43 |
| mdz | infinity: I don't see why | 10:43 |
| mdz | I thought NM already supplied its own config to bind | 10:43 |
| infinity | mdz : Well, if I depend on bind9, it'll get installed, it'll by default run a cacheing nameserver on *:53 (and NM will also run its own instance on localhost:53) | 10:43 |
| mdz | infinity: that's currently the case, yes. but that's not what we want | 10:44 |
| mdz | that's one of the things that needs to be fixed in order to integrate network manager | 10:44 |
| infinity | mdz : Right, hence why I said we'd need to deliver bind9 DOA. | 10:44 |
| infinity | mdz : Or ship two bind9 binary packages, one just for NM. (ick) | 10:44 |
| mdz | infinity: that is not the right solution | 10:44 |
| Mithrandir | split bind9 into bind9 and bind9-config where bind9-config is the set of current config files? | 10:44 |
| infinity | mdz : I'm flailing for a solution that isn't one of those two. | 10:44 |
| mdz | infinity: Mithrandir just mentioned one. another would be to suppress the default bind9 startup if NM is active | 10:45 |
| === jstr [i=jstr@dsl-58-6-0-236.wa.westnet.com.au] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| infinity | Mithrandir : That still delivers bind9 DOA, unless the admin knows to install bind9-config. (unless you're suggesting NM provides it as a metapackage, but those packages coulnt'c onflict, cause it's perfectly reasonable to run two bind9 instances) | 10:45 |
| Mithrandir | or bind9-daemon is just the daemon and bind9 is the config files + a dependency on bind9-daemon | 10:45 |
| infinity | mdz : There's no reason not to run bind9 /and/ NM (though it's an odd setup, sure) | 10:46 |
| Lathiat | mdz: so like an /etc/default/bind9 DONT_START_IF_NETWORKMANAGER_IS_INSTALLED or something? | 10:46 |
| mdz | the important use cases are: desktop user gets NM + caching nameserver, server user gets "apt-get install bind9" | 10:46 |
| infinity | Mithrandir : That's more workable, yes. | 10:46 |
| mdz | infinity: it'd be a silly deafult | 10:46 |
| mdz | default | 10:46 |
| jstr | hello people. I would like to help Ubuntu by coding. Is there anyone here that I can talk to get started? | 10:46 |
| mdz | jstr: yes | 10:46 |
| infinity | mdz : How about the suggestion to split the damon binary into a seperate package, as above?.. That's very little effort on the packaging front, and would seem to solve the problem. | 10:47 |
| mdz | infinity: it is one option | 10:47 |
| Mithrandir | it means moving conffiles, but that's doable, just ugly. | 10:47 |
| infinity | Mithrandir : No it doesn't, the conffiles would stay in bind9. | 10:47 |
| mdz | Mithrandir: why? the conffiles can stay in bind9 | 10:48 |
| infinity | Mithrandir : And just move the binary itself to bind9-bin. | 10:48 |
| infinity | Mithrandir : That's the path of least reistance so far. | 10:48 |
| Mithrandir | hm, true. | 10:48 |
| mdz | infinity: what about interaction between NM and ifupdown? is that all sorted? | 10:48 |
| infinity | In that ifupdown has absolutely no clue about NM-managed interfaces? No. | 10:49 |

| Lathiat | or just have it not eat my interfaces if i play with them | 10:49 |
| jdub | infinity: so thom and i were talking about making ifupdown understand n-m | 10:50 |

| infinity | jdub : I hate reinventing wheels. | 10:50 |
| jdub | infinity: such as having static/dhcp/managed in interfaces, stuff like that | 10:50 |

| jsgotangco | jstr: help the MOTU: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU | 10:51 |
| infinity | mdz : Well, the design goal of NM was to have it manage things independently of other system tools like ifupdown. OTOH, if they can be made to not hate each other, I'm not opposed to the concept. | 10:51 |
| Lathiat | well ifup/down marks if it has brough tan interface up or down | 10:51 |
| jstr | thank you | 10:51 |
| Lathiat | n-m could look at that, and not touch the interface if its been brought up | 10:51 |
| mdz | infinity: to rephrase, NM is broken if it interferes with existing ifupdown configurations | 10:51 |
| mdz | infinity: that is a showstopper bug | 10:51 |
| infinity | mdz : What if I bring the iface up with ifupdown, but then I want to fiddle with it (say, associate with another WAP) with NM? | 10:51 |
| Lathiat | infinity: the real problem right now is that if you bring an interface up, it screws with it immediately, not if you click on something or whatever | 10:52 |
| mdz | infinity: for a given interface, you should either use NM xor ifupdown | 10:52 |
| doko | Mithrandir: could you use openoffice.org2_1.9.121-1ubuntu7 as a base for the amd64 packages? | 10:52 |

| jdub | infinity: i like to dabble in simplicity 8) | 10:55 |
| infinity | jdub : But how do you cover the "I just plugges a new USB wifi interface in that I didn't have before" use case?... Does NM just toss it into /etc/network/interfaces, so users don't have to set it to managed on their own? | 10:56 |

| infinity | Having to update a config file to declare something as "managed" sounds kinda dodgy, I guess. | 10:56 |

Upstream/Redhat/Suse are not going this way, and dbus is going to be used by a lot of stuff, that will require some good patching all over the place and probably create some bugs ... | 11:10 |

| jdub | yeah | 11:11 |
| nomed^ | hi all .. just a question .. i sow that debian is workin on a script: xserver-xorg.init .. "http://necrotic.deadbeast.net/svn/xorg-x11/trunk/debian/changelog" is ubuntu planing something similar? | 11:11 |
| alberto | why is disabled drc channel by default? | 11:11 |
| infinity | jdub : If an interface can't be configured in /etc/n/i for NM to manage it, then you've got a catch-22 there. | 11:12 |
| === jinty [n=jinty@205.134.224.215] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| infinity | jdub : No network until the GUI comes up for the normal use case means recovery is much more difficult for the clueless. | 11:12 |
| mdz | nomed^: no; we already solved this problem in a simpler way, but Petter wanted to do it differently | 11:12 |

| mjg59 | Lathiat: Yes, usplash. Looks like it's the buildds | 11:15 |

| === slomo [n=slomo@p5487FADC.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| infinity | jdub : I'm not sure if losing that is really worth the shininess of NM being shoved in prematurely. | 11:15 |
| mdz | infinity: "dhclient eth0" fills that use case nicely | 11:16 |
| infinity | Oh, fair enough. | 11:16 |
| jdub | infinity: it's not that hard, in the simple case, you should just be able to dhclient | 11:16 |
| Lathiat | perhaps in recovery dhcp could be attempted on all interfaces or something | 11:16 |
| jdub | infinity: and the non-simple case involves configuring interfaces ;) | 11:16 |
| infinity | Alright, objection withdrawn then. We can go with the simplest "if it ain't in interface, NM owns it" path, then. | 11:16 |
| infinity | Lathiat : "recovery mode" isn't really a "mode" at all, it's just runlevel 1. | 11:17 |
| daniels | paolo: undefined colour: black means that X is missing its RGB database, which is actually sort of somewhat true for new installs ... | 11:17 |
| infinity | Lathiat : We don't do anything special in that mode, we just stop booting half way. | 11:17 |

| jdub | 11:18 | |
| jdub | seb128: know about that ^ ? | 11:18 |
| infinity | "run ifup eth0" and "run dhclient eth0" are pretty much equivalent from a "I have no idea what either of those commands mean because I like mice" perspective. | 11:18 |

| jdub | is it ok to build-conflict with slang1-dev tho? | 12:31 |

| Kamion | daniels: hooray | 01:19 |
| pitti | (or, I made him want to :-) ) | 01:19 |
| doko | Mithrandir: 6.8.0-8.14.14-0ubuntu3 | 01:20 |
| jdub | pitti: yeah, reacting to upload :) | 01:22 |
| daniels | Kamion: (now watch it get rejected because I'm a complete meathead and screwed something up) | 01:23 |
| Nafallo | daniels: xserver-xorg wants xserver-xorg-driver-v4l that is not installable on amd64 (-46). | 01:25 |
| daniels | Nafallo: that's because it's waiting in binary NEW. either that or I'm a meathead and screwed something up. | 01:25 |
| janimo | when writing maininclusion wiki pages does every source package need a separate page or can they be put together if they are part of a larger meta? | 01:26 |
| daniels | i'll take 'i'm a meathead and screwed something up' for $20, dennis | 01:26 |
| janimo | I am thinking of xfce - same packager, same security record, same upstream | 01:26 |
| Nafallo | daniels: hehe, oki. great job anyway! :-) | 01:26 |
| janimo | I see it's done that way with koffice | 01:26 |

| Kamion | daniels: source looked fine to me anyway, processed | 01:26 |
| daniels | janimo: koffice is a single source package | 01:26 |
| Kamion | daniels: you can't end up with just one binary from a source package in NEW, it's all or nothing ... | 01:27 |
| daniels | Mithrandir: the dude who did it for debian ... flavio? | 01:27 |
| janimo | I see it depends on kivio & co | 01:27 |
| janimo | aren't those implicitely requested by that page? | 01:27 |

| Riddell | Mithrandir: hi | 02:02 |
| pitti | Mez: me too, ffox and moz crash, too since recently | 02:02 |
| janimo | any way to tell apt-cache to only provide info about latest packages, not also on the ones installed | 02:02 |
| Mez | pitti: I just realised I should be talking to infinity not you :D | 02:02 |
| Mez | pitti, my FF is working fine, just my thunderbird sint | 02:02 |
| Mithrandir | Riddell: hi, there you are. It appears that the style loader in KDE becomes slightly unhappy when mixing 32 and 64 bit stuff. | 02:02 |
| pitti | Mez: so far we don't have an official moz maintainer | 02:03 |
| Mez | pitti: fair enough :D but we need one... cause thunderbird is getting ridiculous | 02:03 |
| pitti | agreed | 02:03 |
| Mez | It's crashing neaar enough every time I try and send an email | 02:03 |
| Mez | pitti: asac doesnt want to jump on the ubuntu train I presume? | 02:04 |
| pitti | no idea | 02:04 |
| Mez | pitti: I'm gonna try building 1.06-3 from debian | 02:05 |
| Mez | see if that works any better | 02:05 |
| pitti | would be interesting to compare the patches | 02:06 |
| pitti | tbird has a proper patch system which makes this easy | 02:06 |
| Riddell | Mithrandir: hmm, not sure what to say to that. style loader can get very tempremental about having been compiled with exact same version of gcc as qt, it should default back to a win95 style though | 02:06 |
| janimo | pitti do you know if building a non-gnome enabled ff package would be troublesome? | 02:07 |
| Mez | pitti: be interesting to see if the damn thing WORKS | 02:07 |

| seb128 | Lathiat: are you sure? | 02:31 |
| Lathiat | seb128: yes, while many may share similarities, it varies wildly | 02:31 |
| Lathiat | look at one of th ekeyboard packages | 02:32 |
| seb128 | Lathiat: so it doesn't make sense to put defaults? | 02:32 |
| Lathiat | seb128: you could try and find the "most common" | 02:32 |
| seb128 | how? | 02:32 |
| Lathiat | get a list of various keycodes | 02:32 |
| Mithrandir | Riddell: that was a theory. It didn't appear to hold. | 02:32 |
| Lathiat | try find similarities | 02:32 |
| Lathiat | best way to do that | 02:32 |
| seb128 | Lathiat: very funny | 02:33 |
| Lathiat | is to get one of the other shortcut packages | 02:33 |

| Kamion | jbailey: does initramfs-tools 0.17 fix the install problem I reported? | 06:46 |

| jbailey | =) | 06:48 |
| jbailey | Sorry, I'm not up on all my email atm. | 06:48 |
| Kamion | #13334 | 06:48 |
| Kamion | (also #13335, less important) | 06:49 |
| jbailey | 13334 is fixed, yes. | 06:49 |
| Kamion | ah, you ship initramfs.conf but the sed hit mkinitramfs.conf | 06:50 |
| Kamion | I assume initramfs.conf is right | 06:50 |
| jbailey | Yup. =) | 06:50 |
| jbailey | Fixed in 0.17 | 06:50 |
| jbailey | 13335 isn't, but I hadn't hit that one. Hmm | 06:50 |
| Kamion | ok, will hack up something in base-installer for that | 06:50 |

| Kamion | jbailey: is there any equivalent of initrd-tools' DELAY in initramfs-tools | 06:51 |
| Kamion | ? | 06:51 |
| jbailey | Kamion: No. If you want to break, just add 'break' to the kernel command line. | 06:51 |
| jbailey | Kamion: Do you need a delay setting? | 06:52 |
| Kamion | no, it's just that base-installer was setting DELAY=0 in mkinitrd.conf and I wanted to check the equivalent | 06:52 |
| jbailey | Ah, makes sense. | 06:52 |
| Kamion | it also sets ROOT= | 06:52 |
| Kamion | should I omit that too? | 06:52 |
| jbailey | Hmm | 06:52 |
| jbailey | I wonder if it's ever the right thing to have it in the initramfs instead of the kernel command line. | 06:53 |

| marcin | hi all | 09:16 |
| marcin | I got a question about general packaging procedure | 09:16 |
| marcin | do you guys got some tools to build packages recursively? | 09:16 |
| bddebian | Oh no, he's back :-) | 09:17 |
| marcin | bddebian: hi :D | 09:17 |
| Kamion | packages don't contain other packages, so there's no concept of recursion involved | 09:17 |
| doko | Mithrandir: uploaded, but the build did fail ... the uno bridge now fails to build ... | 09:17 |
| marcin | Kamion: right but I mean something to build a bunch of packages at once | 09:18 |
| Kamion | you could try pbuilder | 09:18 |
| Kamion | we use wanna-build/buildd/sbuild, but it's much more effort to set up; pbuilder is more designed for personal use | 09:18 |
| Mithrandir | doko: ok, can you prod me once a working version is in the archive? | 09:18 |
| marcin | I need to build a lot (about 400) packages with simmilar content | 09:18 |
| Kamion | normally such things would all be built from a single source package | 09:18 |
| Mithrandir | elmo: can you nuke the b0rked ia32-libs-kde upload for me, please? | 09:19 |
| Kamion | if that is not possible, you're mostly on your own because that's quite an unusual thing to do | 09:19 |
| Kamion | Mithrandir: I've done so | 09:19 |
| Kamion | assuming you meant the orphaned .dsc in queue/unchecked/ | 09:20 |
| Mithrandir | Kamion: yes, thanks. | 09:20 |
| marcin | Kamion: hmmm and how you guys synchronize your packages with debian repositories? | 09:20 |
| marcin | Kamion: you do all 'manually' ? | 09:21 |
| Mithrandir | marcin: no, it's usually done automatically, if we don't have any changes wrt the debian version | 09:21 |
| Kamion | if we do have changes, there's a tool called merge-o-matic that files bugs against the packages for us with suggested merge output | 09:22 |
| marcin | Mithrandir: you got some scripts or specific tools to perform this synchronization? | 09:22 |
| Kamion | developers then review that output, tweak as necessary (or sometimes redo from scratch) and upload | 09:22 |
| Kamion | but it's not rocket science, it's just three-way diff and patch application | 09:23 |
| Mithrandir | marcin: yes, there's a tool which compares. I don't think it's available, but it should be fairly trivial to write one which does the same. Note that the merge-o-matic is another piece of machinery which is more complicated. | 09:23 |
| Mithrandir | Kamion: and some attempts at extraction of different parts, AIUI | 09:23 |
| marcin | Mithrandir: hmmm what machinery? | 09:25 |
| Mithrandir | marcin: merge-o-matic, as Kamion just described | 09:25 |
| Kamion | merge output publication, bugzilla interaction, that sort of thing | 09:26 |
| Kamion | it's all fairly boring scriptage I think | 09:26 |
| paolo | http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/1115 do you know what it could be? (I'm on an USB2 external drive breezy installation, I use initrd to load the usb modules) | 09:29 |
| Kamion | paolo: the kernel just switched from initrd to initramfs, and base-installer doesn't support that yet. I'm working on it at this very moment. | 09:31 |
| Kamion | but it will take me some hours | 09:32 |
| paolo | Kamion, nice. I can't reboot yet, so :-) | 09:32 |
| Kamion | paolo: oh, is this in the middle of a fresh installation, or are you upgrading? | 09:33 |
| paolo | The former. I'm keeping it upgraded to the bleeding edge because I need this terminus font and I hope for xorg eating it at some point. | 09:33 |
| Kamion | you're keeping it upgraded by repeatedly reinstalling? :) | 09:34 |
| paolo | no no :-D update/upgrade/dist-upgrade | 09:34 |
| Kamion | so then you mean "the latter", not "the former" | 09:34 |
| paolo | Sorry I misunderstood previously - I mean it's not an upgrade from hoary or something. | 09:35 |
| Kamion | right, I'm asking whether you're actually in the installer right now | 09:35 |
| paolo | Nope, the system is installed and I have rebooted it before this last xorg upgrades. | 09:35 |
| Kamion | ok, disregard what I said, then | 09:35 |
| Kamion | is initramfs-tools installed? | 09:35 |
| paolo | Nope. | 09:36 |
| Kamion | Hah, somebody forgot to update linux-image-*'s dependencies. | 09:37 |
| paolo | I like being helpful :-) | 09:37 |
| Kamion | jbailey: ^-- linux-image-*'s depends needs to change from initrd-tools to initramfs-tools | 09:37 |
| paolo | Kamion, is there any doc about it? I have found some HOWTO on ubuntuforums about how to make this external USB2 harddrive installation work. | 09:38 |
| paolo | But it only talked about mkinitrd. | 09:38 |
| mdz | Kamion: didn't it? | 09:38 |
| mdz | oh, it didn't | 09:39 |
| mdz | I had it installed already | 09:39 |
| Kamion | paolo: it's very new, and I haven't even had time to look at it much myself yet | 09:39 |
| mdz | Kamion: why should base-installer need to care, if the dependencies are correct? | 09:39 |
| Kamion | mdz: because base-installer needs to put the resume partition into initramfs.conf | 09:39 |
| mdz | ah | 09:39 |
| Kamion | mdz: in order to do that, it first has to install mkinitramfs-tools | 09:40 |
| Kamion | (so that the template config file is there) | 09:40 |
| mdz | I thought initramfs-tools did that itself | 09:40 |
| Kamion | it tries, but it doesn't have as much information | 09:40 |
| Kamion | well, theoretically at least. in practice the code is similar at the moment, but I can easily imagine partman hooks to let the user identify the resume partition | 09:41 |
| Kamion | perhaps in automatic installs | 09:41 |
| Kamion | base-installer's fiddling is more relevant for initrd-tools really, but at the very least I'd have to disable it | 09:42 |
| Kamion | and while I'm there anyway, it's not very difficult to make it do the analogous initramfs things | 09:42 |

| paolo | Kamion, do you know how can I safely switch to the previous kernel? So that I could reboot without messing with initramfs. | 09:59 |
| Kamion | paolo: you can just install the initramfs-tools package and the kernel should then configure cleanly | 09:59 |

| paolo | busybox-cvs-initramfs initramfs-tools klibc-utils libklibc | 10:00 |

| paolo | Kamion, http://paste.ubuntulinux.nl/1116 any clues about what it did? | 10:02 |
| Kamion | mdz: looks like I should replace initrd-tools in the minimal seed with initramfs-tools, and bump initrd-tools out to supported? | 10:02 |
| mdz | Kamion: why was initrd-tools seeded anyway? | 10:02 |
| mdz | Kamion: I'm about to change the deps in l-s-2.6.12 unless you've already done it... | 10:03 |
| Kamion | mdz: no, I haven't; possibly because we explicitly avoid considering the kernel packages in debootstrap, so it avoids confusion to seed their deps | 10:03 |
| Kamion | paolo: interesting | 10:03 |
| mdke | mjg59, around? | 10:04 |
| Simira | mdke : I haven't really thought about it yet. I just provide t-shirts :p | 10:04 |
| Kamion | paolo: that will stop happening once the kernel image properly depends on initramfs-tools, because apt won't try to configure the kernel image while initramfs-tools is only unpacked as opposed to configured | 10:04 |
| Kamion | paolo: nevertheless, it appears to have recovered successfully | 10:05 |
| Kamion | paolo: (as I would expect) | 10:05 |
| mdke | Simira, ok, but you must have thought about how much to charge right? | 10:05 |
| paolo | Kamion, good - so are you saying it kept my configuration about initrd? | 10:05 |
| Kamion | paolo: no, it's built an initramfs | 10:05 |
| paolo | Kaloz, which I need to configure? | 10:06 |
| Kamion | congratulations, you're a tester :) | 10:06 |
| paolo | I'm very pleased to help - I hope it compensates the begging I did here :-) | 10:06 |
| paolo | Furthermore I need the newer Gtk for my summer of code project, so messing with the bleeding edge was expected :-) | 10:07 |
| Kamion | might want to check that your grub configuration refers to it properly | 10:07 |
| Simira | mdke: sure. I take as little as possible, so it's mostly the cost of printing them and shipping. A little revenue goes to further t-shirt orders. If I'd make a webshop of it in time, a part will go back to Ubuntu. | 10:07 |
| Kamion | actually, it should be fine | 10:08 |
| paolo | initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.12-6-386 | 10:08 |
| Kamion | I'm just rebooting my own test system now | 10:08 |
| Kamion | yeah, that's actually an initramfs despite the name | 10:08 |
| mdke | Simira, yeah, i reckon if Ubuntu was interested, you could charge a little more | 10:08 |
| paolo | Cool. | 10:08 |
| mdke | Simira, anyway, thanks a bunch for doing it | 10:08 |
| Simira | :) | 10:09 |
| Kamion | I get a ton of "sed: Unsupported comand I" on boot, but otherwise it seems fine | 10:09 |
| paolo | What's wrong with sed. | 10:09 |
| paolo | By the way, it's a good news. | 10:11 |
| Kamion | nothing's wrong with sed | 10:11 |
| paolo | Kamion, do you use any initrd customized options? | 10:11 |
| Kamion | no | 10:11 |
| paolo | OK. | 10:11 |
| Kamion | udev is trying to use a GNU sed feature, which doesn't work with busybox | 10:11 |
| Kamion | but it's only in cdsymlinks.sh, so it's cosmetic at that stage | 10:12 |
| paolo | Hmm, udev here does strange things, too | 10:12 |
| paolo | For example it does not create some devices like /dev/hda* and /dev/hdc* which are respectively the harddrive and the dvddrive of my laptop. | 10:12 |

| paolo | Yup, I notified them. | 10:59 |
| paolo | I don't know how it goes for this kind of issues. | 10:59 |
| paolo | seb128, if I could ask: it passed the announce for rhythmbox-0.9.0 but it isn't on the repos, is there a particular reason? | 11:01 |
| seb128 | mkdir .libs | 11:02 |
| seb128 | libtool: link: cannot find the library `/usr/lib/libdbus-1.la' | 11:02 |

| seb128 | daniels !!!!! | 11:02 |
| seb128 | he keeps doing that | 11:02 |
| seb128 | dropping .la files and breaking other packages | 11:02 |
| paolo | Argh :-) | 11:03 |
| seb128 | is somebody going to upload a hal package for that or should I do it? | 11:04 |

| seb128 | WTF | 11:06 |
| seb128 | Kamion, mdz: what is the right fix here? Changing dbus to install libdbus-1.la or doing a rebuild of other stuff to drop the .la mention? | 11:07 |
| === Kamion has no idea, I'm afraid | ||
| seb128 | k, all the stuff using hal are FTBFSing now | 11:09 |
| seb128 | thanks daniels | 11:09 |

| elmo | I think soon you might wrap around, and become all happy and positive again ;P | 11:10 |
| seb128 | ah ah | 11:10 |
| seb128 | I'm not bitter :p | 11:10 |
| seb128 | I've just enough to do without having daniels making half of GNOME FTBFSing every week | 11:10 |

| jbailey | Kamion: Yeah, that might work. Right now I had been doing the same autodetection that the installer would do. | 11:21 |
| mdz | seb128: I can understand removing it from the python package; that doesn't make sense. but surely it should be in -dev | 11:21 |
| seb128 | mdz: k, I'm going to fix dbus then, thanks | 11:21 |
| Kamion | jbailey: I think doing both would make sense | 11:21 |
| jbailey | Yup | 11:22 |
| Kamion | ok, udev upload fixing those warnings done, so re-mkinitramfs with that and all should be happy | 11:22 |

| Kamion | jbailey: mdz fixed it already | 11:23 |
| shaya | missing dependecy? | 11:23 |
| jbailey | Kamion, mdz: thanks. | 11:23 |
| mdz | it should be building about now | 11:23 |
| Kamion | shaya: right; there's a new kernel on its way | 11:23 |
| mdz | -6.10 | 11:23 |
| shaya | would my old initrd have owrked? | 11:23 |
| mdz | yes | 11:23 |
| shaya | or would I have had to reboot to .10? | 11:23 |
| shaya | ah | 11:23 |
| shaya | so not hte biggest deal | 11:24 |
| mdz | shaya: do you think it's at all feasible that the other change from http://www.fsl.cs.sunysb.edu/pipermail/unionfs-cvs/2005-August/000260.html broke things for me? | 11:24 |
| mdz | it's either that, or some non-unionfs difference between our configurations, if you can't reproduce my bug | 11:24 |
| Kamion | shaya: if you had the new linux-image-* unpacked, then configuring linux-image-* will fail initially, but then apt will retry after configuring initramfs-tools and all should be happy | 11:24 |
| shaya | mdz: I made one line change and it worked | 11:24 |
| shaya | yes | 11:24 |
| shaya | everything's happy | 11:24 |
| shaya | mdz: I guess it's possible the dentry.c change made some problems for you | 11:25 |
| shaya | mdz: stick a printk() in that code to see if you're hitting it | 11:25 |
| shaya | as it sort of would make sense | 11:25 |
| shaya | as d_unhashed means unlinked | 11:26 |
| shaya | and that's what bash is doing, unlinked file | 11:26 |
| mdz | shaya: I'm going to try reverting to the same code you're using and see if that helps | 11:26 |
| robertj | mdz: did you see my lowly post about whether workspace-switcher applet should remain on the default panel? | 11:26 |
| shaya | mdz: in this case, it's not really the unionfs guys fault, this dentry revalidation is black magic, I've been looking for documentation about what it means, and havent found any | 11:27 |
| mdz | robertj: no | 11:27 |
| robertj | mdz: well err, that's pretty much the post...I've seen a few people lose apps on various virtual workspaces | 11:27 |
| shaya | anyone here read long: ? | 11:27 |
| shaya | login: that is | 11:27 |
| robertj | mdz: basically I figure the people who need them can find them but the people who don't might not know how/be afraid to remove them | 11:28 |
| mdz | robertj: as far as I'm concerned, that's a desktop team decision | 11:29 |
| mdz | robertj: ->seb128 | 11:29 |
| robertj | oky | 11:29 |
| seb128 | I've not strong opinion on the topic but imho that's fine this way | 11:30 |
| seb128 | there is no real point to have an empty panel and it's quite useful | 11:30 |
| robertj | it is useful but its bad if you don't know what your doing and manage to "lose your icons" | 11:30 |
| seb128 | next you will ask to configure with 1 desktop by default? | 11:31 |
| robertj | yup | 11:31 |
| seb128 | there is other way than the applet to change desktop | 11:31 |
| seb128 | the real fix would be to set the number of desktop to 1 | 11:31 |
| paolo | Which automake/autoconf version do you suggest to install? And why do you provide so many versions? | 11:32 |
| seb128 | because upstream provide those version | 11:32 |
| robertj | yeah, I think I forgot to include that in my email, but yes, I'd think that would be needed as well | 11:32 |
| seb128 | robertj: that's not going to happen imho | 11:32 |

| robertj | that's why i'm against My Documents, My Music, My Whatever. | 11:34 |
| seb128 | robertj: you will not get any consensus on a such discussion imho | 11:34 |
| seb128 | that's basically why I've not replied to the thread | 11:35 |
| robertj | Yeah, probably not. But it's a better way of doing things than having every application want to have itself on your panel and such. | 11:35 |
| paolo | seb128, thanks. OK works seamlessy for me too. | 11:35 |
| seb128 | you can try to go upstream, they will probably close it and maybe ping usability before | 11:35 |
| paolo | seb128, about cairo "--enable-gtk-doc use gtk-doc to build documentation default=no" that's probably the reason for the lack of documentation. | 11:36 |
| seb128 | paolo: I know why it lack it and the Debian package has a binary package for it, I just need to sync ... I'll do that after the colony CD from this week when uploading 0.9 and GTK 2.8 | 11:37 |
| seb128 | paolo: thanks anyway :) | 11:37 |
| mdz | shaya: still broken for me using 1.0.13 + the one-character fix | 11:38 |
