|---|---|---|
| Mez | "missing" | 12:04 |
| sistpoty | unmet deps? | 12:05 |
| Mitario | depending on missing packages | 12:05 |
| Mitario | yeah with install candidate, but no binary | 12:05 |
| tseng | Burgundavia: bug #1167 is upstream, not mine, and its probably too late to fix for breezy | 12:07 |
| Mitario | brb shower | 12:08 |
| Mitario | crimsun, i'll get you some more fixes in a bit ;-) be prepared for my wrath | 12:08 |
| crimsun | Mitario, uploaded through thoughttracker, updating wiki page. | 12:09 |
| Mitario | crimsun, cool ftp-master back? | 12:09 |
| crimsun | yup | 12:11 |
| Mitario | crimsun, damn, you're at least halfway trough, I should hurry ;) | 12:12 |
| crimsun | hehe | 12:13 |
| Mitario | hmm, I need to get myself a new workstation | 12:15 |
| Mitario | an amd64 would be nice | 12:15 |
| crimsun | Mitario, t1lib-dev is not available on amd64, so tex-guy will FTBFS | 12:16 |
| Mitario | hmm bah | 12:16 |
| Mitario | no it should be libt1-dev | 12:16 |
| Mitario | didn't I change that? | 12:16 |
| crimsun | not in debian/control, nope | 12:16 |
| crimsun | you mentioned it in debian/changelog ;) | 12:17 |
| Mitario | no that was the rebuild, but | 12:17 |
| Mitario | umm, it's changed here locally | 12:18 |
| Mitario | probably uploaded the wrong debdiff :) | 12:18 |
| Mitario | yes | 12:18 |
| Mitario | sec | 12:18 |
| Mitario | i'll upload the new one | 12:18 |
| crimsun | ok | 12:18 |
| Mitario | done, link updated | 12:21 |
| Mitario | at least, when the wiki saves | 12:21 |
| Mitario | yup now | 12:21 |
| Mitario | showimg fixed | 12:24 |
| Mitario | crimsun, is there an easy way to check wether the packages are build and installed? | 12:33 |

| tseng | Mez: its been stalling and we only have a month of hoary left | 12:49 |
| tseng | Mez: for breezy we wont have to backport the whole damn thing. | 12:50 |
| Mitario | crimsun, ahh! 2 to go, and I'm still compiling | 12:50 |
| sistpoty | btw.: ghc6 now building for >4 hours ... maybe i should kill that cpuburn *g* | 12:52 |
| slomo | sistpoty: maybe you should kill upstream ;) | 12:53 |

| crimsun | Mitario, are you sure showimg -1ubuntu1 isn't sufficient? What does your -1ubuntu2 change over doko's previous cxx rebuild? | 12:59 |
| crimsun | -1build1 and -1build2, sorry | 12:59 |
| ajmitch | tseng: thanks | 01:01 |
| ajmitch | I should ask for sync from elmo, just uploading to sid now | 01:02 |
| tseng | great | 01:02 |
| tseng | man next week at work will be great | 01:03 |
| tseng | we are shipping out brand new smp xeon 64s with ubuntu | 01:03 |

| ajmitch | tseng: oh ship me one, please | 01:03 |
| Mitario | crimsun, because currently it doesn't install | 01:04 |
| tseng | ajmitch: only 1 spare, sorry | 01:04 |
| crimsun | Mitario, ok | 01:04 |
| tseng | ajmitch: corporate is making everyone buy the same model of server now, so we got twice the power we need | 01:04 |
| crimsun | Mitario, I'll note it in debian/changelog | 01:04 |
| tseng | ajmitch: i cant complain. | 01:04 |
| Mitario | crimsun, and build1 is for ABI update, build2 is actually package names | 01:04 |
| Mitario | crimsun, ok | 01:04 |
| crimsun | package names? Hmm | 01:05 |
| crimsun | Make sure you uploaded the correct diff | 01:05 |

| Mitario | if some packages has buildX should I then change it to ubuntuX or just ubuntu1? | 02:24 |
| tseng | for a change, or antother rebuild? | 02:26 |
| Mitario | change | 02:27 |
| sistpoty | for a change use ubuntuX | 02:28 |
| ajmitch | I'd say ubuntu1 | 02:28 |
| tseng | drop the build | 02:29 |
| ajmitch | (just to be difficult) ;) | 02:29 |
| sistpoty | sorry, didn't read carefully enough ;) | 02:29 |
| Mitario | yeah ok, I was wondering if you should continue the X from the build for instance build4 -> ubuntu5, or build4 -> ubuntu1 | 02:29 |
| tseng | -> ubuntu1 | 02:29 |
| sistpoty | ubuntu is higher than build? did i finally get how version names work? | 02:30 |
| ajmitch | sistpoty: yes, that's why we use it | 02:30 |
| ajmitch | all a-zA-Z are lower than numbers | 02:30 |

| Seveas | ajmitch, to look 1337 ;) | 02:32 |
| ajmitch | Seveas: that's what I was thinking ;) | 02:32 |
| Mitario | ajmitch, so I can keep up with what's uploaded and what's not | 02:32 |
| Mitario | oh, and as evicence for the CC ;) | 02:32 |
| Mitario | but I think i'll also pass that without motu stuff | 02:33 |
| Seveas | ajmitch, the MOTU with the longest list gets a free ubuntu CD ;) | 02:33 |

| Mitario | hehe :) I can't do that yet | 02:40 |
| Mitario | elmo's a bit busy atm :( | 02:40 |
| ajmitch | oh, I did make sure to run pbuilder & dpkg-deb to check dependencies before uploading, of course :) | 02:41 |
| Seveas | why debuild instead of dpkg-buildpackage? | 02:42 |
| ajmitch | because debuild does more | 02:43 |
| ajmitch | and is less to type | 02:44 |
| Seveas | hehe | 02:44 |
| Seveas | ok | 02:44 |
| === Seveas goes reading manpages | ||
| ajmitch | It first runs dpkg-buildpackage, then runs lintian and/or linda on the .changes file created (assuming that lintian and/or linda is installed), and finally signs the .changes and/or .dsc files as appropriate | 02:44 |

| ajmitch | Mitario: what did you do for scorched3d? | 02:54 |
| ajmitch | hm | 02:55 |
| sistpoty | Mitario: did you check it on amd64? last version worked on i386 but broke on amd64 | 02:55 |
| ajmitch | because we were trying to get in a new openAL for it | 02:55 |
| Mitario | ah | 02:58 |
| Mitario | well I can't upload | 02:58 |
| Mitario | I just put my debdiff on the wiki | 02:58 |
| Mitario | so other MOTU's can check it out | 02:58 |
| Mitario | sistpoty, no, I onfortunately don't have amd64 :( | 02:59 |
| ajmitch | people have been working on scorched3d a bit | 02:59 |
| Mitario | ah right | 02:59 |
| ajmitch | hm | 02:59 |

| === ajmitch wonders what crack-fu tclmagick is on | ||
| ajmitch | non-native version with native packaging | 03:00 |
| ajmitch | ugly | 03:00 |
| sistpoty | Mitario: i don | 03:00 |
| sistpoty | + t have amd64 as well ;) but siretart who wanted to sponsor me has | 03:00 |
| sistpoty | ;) | 03:00 |
| Mitario | :) | 03:01 |
| Mitario | crimsun has been checking my previous submissions out | 03:01 |
| Mitario | also on amd64 iirc | 03:01 |
| Mitario | sablevm deps also fixed | 03:01 |
| sistpoty | Mitario: if you want something hard, you could check rscheme (is on my list, but i don't think, i can handle it) | 03:02 |
| sistpoty | with gcc-4 it builds the compiler, but the compiler segfaults... and upstream didn't do anything since 4 month | 03:03 |
| Mitario | hrm | 03:03 |
| Mitario | ok | 03:03 |
| Yagisan | I have an amd64 | 03:03 |
| Mitario | i'm just now gong trough the alphabet of UnmetDeps :) | 03:03 |
| Mitario | backwards | 03:03 |
| sistpoty | hehe | 03:04 |
| ajmitch | Mitario: I've just spent the last day or two rebuilding them all | 03:04 |
| Yagisan | what's the problem, does scorched3d FTBFS ? | 03:04 |
| Yagisan | I'm happy to run a test build if you need it | 03:04 |
| sistpoty | Yagisan: the current version FTBFS on amd64... but imo siretart did already do some work for it (not sure... ajmitch?) | 03:05 |
| Mitario | ajmitch, the whole list? | 03:05 |
| === Mitario generated one a few hours ago | ||
| ajmitch | Mitario: yes | 03:06 |
| Mitario | and just skimmed trough it | 03:06 |
| ajmitch | Mitario: I generated a list & fed all of them to pbuilder | 03:06 |
| Mitario | and fixed some debs, and rebuilds for others | 03:06 |
| Mitario | ah | 03:06 |
| ajmitch | I've got several MB just of logfiles :) | 03:06 |
| Mitario | hehe | 03:06 |
| Mitario | umm, well, crimsun uploaded some fixes and rebuilds of mine, so am I ignoring your work now? :S | 03:07 |
| Mitario | or did you upload the ones you fed to pbuilder | 03:07 |
| ajmitch | no, I still have to go through a lot of the logs | 03:07 |
| Mitario | ah ok | 03:08 |
| === Mitario is doing it one-by-one | ||
| ajmitch | so there's not a *lot* of stepping on toes here | 03:08 |
| ajmitch | it's best to check breezy-changes for any recent uploads | 03:08 |
| Mitario | yeah I do | 03:09 |
| === ajmitch has flooded his gmail account with breezy-changes ;) | ||
| Mitario | hehe :) | 03:09 |
| Mitario | hmm, ok rubrica seems to work again too now | 03:10 |
| Seveas | ajmitch, hint: rss :) | 03:11 |
| ajmitch | Seveas: requires me to run another program to read the rss | 03:11 |
| ajmitch | I find gmail adequate for this | 03:12 |
| Seveas | hehe, me has an rss reader op all the time | 03:12 |
| ajmitch | silly me, k3d needed build-dep changes | 03:16 |
| === Mitario debdiffs rsplib | ||
| === ajmitch has that on his list here | ||
| ajmitch | Mitario: but is your debdiff correct? :) | 03:21 |
| Mitario | ajmitch, well take a look :) | 03:22 |
| Mitario | I put them on the wiki page so someone else can check them if the fix is right, so someone can upload it :) | 03:22 |
| ajmitch | Mitario: right, I wouldn't have an explicit depends | 03:22 |
| ajmitch | but Build-Depends & ${shlibs:Depends} | 03:23 |
| ajmitch | which indicates that it's socketapi that needs fixed, rather than rsplib | 03:23 |
| Mitario | aaah right | 03:23 |
| Mitario | oki :) | 03:23 |
| ajmitch | a pkg that b-d's on socketapi should get the depend automagically | 03:24 |
| Mitario | yeah | 03:24 |
| ajmitch | fixing rsplib is a workaround - not wrong, but not the best way imho | 03:25 |
| Mitario | already thought it was odd that socketapi was defined there | 03:25 |
| Mitario | no I agree | 03:25 |
| === ajmitch checks out socketapi, just for fun | ||
| Mitario | hehe :) | 03:26 |
| ajmitch | it looks like it shouldn't have been transitioned | 03:27 |
| Mitario | btw should we use cdbs in favor of a normal rules file? | 03:27 |
| Mitario | and transition the already existing | 03:27 |
| ajmitch | Mitario: we usually do | 03:27 |
| Mitario | ok | 03:27 |
| ajmitch | no, we don't change the existing packaging to use cdbs | 03:27 |
| ajmitch | that would be an evil fork | 03:27 |
| Mitario | ah ok | 03:28 |
| ajmitch | right, socketapi exports a C ABI | 03:29 |
| === ajmitch will have to revert the transition & fix all the packages that depend on socketapi1c2 | ||
| ajmitch | fun! :) | 03:29 |
| Mitario | wohoo! | 03:29 |
| Mitario | do you think universe will be 'ready' by breezy? | 03:29 |
| ajmitch | hah no | 03:30 |
| ajmitch | amazing | 03:30 |
| Mitario | hehe ok | 03:30 |
| Mitario | just curious | 03:30 |
| ajmitch | nothing actually reverse-depends on socketapi1c2 | 03:30 |
| ajmitch | safe to de-transition | 03:30 |
| === ajmitch will simply ask for a sync from elmo | ||
| Mitario | hmm rmpi needs a rebuild | 03:37 |
| ajmitch | ok, will sign/upload | 03:38 |
| ajmitch | since I already have generated debdiffs :) | 03:39 |
| ajmitch | done | 03:39 |
| Mitario | ajmitch, if you have time/want to, could you review my debdiffs for packages you haven't worked on on that wiki page? :) | 03:39 |
| Mitario | thanks | 03:39 |
| ajmitch | I can, but the problem is that I've done a fair bit of the work automagically - and I just need to sign & upload most of the changes made :) | 03:41 |
| Mitario | yeah ok :) | 03:42 |
| Mitario | did you only check for packages that needed to rebuild, or also debian/control fixes? | 03:42 |
| ajmitch | so far I've just thrown everything at pbuilder & got source packages ready for upload | 03:43 |
| ajmitch | and I have build logs to work from | 03:43 |
| Mitario | ok | 03:43 |
| ajmitch | as well as binary debs to check with dpkg-deb | 03:43 |
| Mitario | hmm, do you think I should continue my list? or focus on something else.. | 03:43 |
| ajmitch | keep going if you want | 03:43 |
| Mitario | yeah, but will it be useful :) | 03:44 |
| ajmitch | it probably will be :) | 03:44 |
| sistpoty | Mitario: s.th. useful to look at would be kaffe... I've also been after it ;) | 03:45 |
| sistpoty | Mitario: if you are interested | 03:45 |
| Mitario | allright | 03:45 |
| ajmitch | there are plenty of packages that FTBFS | 03:45 |
| sistpoty | Mitario: basically sync from debian, but imo autoconf-stuff (which *is* in source-tarball) must be regenerated | 03:46 |
| ajmitch | sistpoty: we got kaffe synced from debian | 03:46 |
| sistpoty | and it built? | 03:46 |
| ajmitch | no :) | 03:46 |
| ajmitch | http://hwdb.ubuntu.com/buildlogs/?show=http://people.ubuntu.com/~lamont/buildLogs/k/kaffe/2%3A1.1.5-5/kaffe_2%3A1.1.5-5_20050826-0448-ia64-failed.gz | 03:47 |
| sistpoty | there was some pango/cairo/freetype2 issue, but imo that all is from wrong configure (which in theory could be regenerated easily) | 03:47 |
| ajmitch | looks like a missing build-dep on freetype, for a start | 03:47 |
| ajmitch | /usr/include/ft2build.h:56:38: error: freetype/config/ftheader.h: No such file or directory | 03:48 |

| Mitario | sistpoty, those tests, are they after compiling? or in the middle of it.. | 03:56 |
| sistpoty | Mitario: what tests do you mean? | 03:57 |
| Mitario | sistpoty, oh nm, it was running some test on some java examples | 03:57 |
| Mitario | but it's configuring another component now | 03:57 |
| Mitario | (building kaffe) | 03:57 |
| Mitario | and now I'm going to force myself to get up | 03:58 |

| ajmitch | building packages, again :) | 06:23 |
| glick | heh | 06:23 |
| glick | nice | 06:23 |
| glick | id like to join and help contribute but i dont kwo where to begin ive been reading the motuwannabetip site and all that | 06:24 |
| ajmitch | yep | 06:24 |
| ajmitch | there's plenty of packages to be fixed, a number of programs that users have requested be packaged | 06:25 |
| ajmitch | and only a few of us working on it | 06:25 |
| crimsun_ | MOTU covers a lot. It may be easier for you if you begin by picking out a couple areas you favor, like documentation or packaging | 06:25 |
| glick | id like to work on packaging | 06:25 |
| glick | though i can do both | 06:25 |
| crimsun_ | sure, there's a never-ending stream of packaging work - not the least of which is reviewing | 06:25 |

| glick | kguitar i like that | 06:30 |
| ajmitch | phlaegel: ok, nip2 works fine for me now, so I'll upload | 06:32 |
| glick | wow there is some great software there | 06:33 |
| glick | that should definatly be in the repos | 06:33 |
| ajmitch | glick: sure, but someone has to have time to package it :) | 06:34 |
| glick | how many packages do you guys usually manage? | 06:35 |
| ajmitch | umm | 06:36 |
| ajmitch | I think universe has well over 10000 binary packages | 06:36 |
| ajmitch | so we have to get them all installable, at least | 06:36 |
| glick | how many people work on that? | 06:36 |
| ajmitch | about 20-25, part-time at best :) | 06:37 |
| glick | if they need packageing why are they still listed there if under status alot of them say they have develipers workin on it | 06:38 |
| ajmitch | because packaging something isn't a 5 minute task | 06:38 |
| ajmitch | and ew have to try & keep the wiki up to date as well | 06:39 |
| ajmitch | somone might volunteer to work on something & never get very far | 06:39 |
| ajmitch | or it's been done, and waiting for us to review it before upload | 06:40 |
| ajmitch | kguitar is like that | 06:40 |

| jtan325 | hi is anyone here? i have a rather "urgent" but easy-for-motus question | 09:42 |
| ajmitch | yes I am here | 09:44 |
| ajmitch | why is it urgent? | 09:45 |
| jtan325 | we're releasing sunday, i'd like to get beta test pacakges out tonight | 09:46 |
| jtan325 | the question is | 09:46 |
| jtan325 | is dpkg --update-available <pkg file> the way to "upgrade" a locally installed .deb? | 09:46 |
| jtan325 | i.e. if the beta test package is 1.2.9 | 09:46 |
| jtan325 | and when we release 1.3.0 on sunday | 09:46 |
| ajmitch | no, I'd never use that | 09:47 |
| siretart | morning | 09:47 |
| ajmitch | I'd always just use dpkg -i | 09:47 |
| ajmitch | hi siretart | 09:47 |
| siretart | huhu ajmitch | 09:47 |
| === niran [n=niran@cpe-67-10-213-51.houston.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| jtan325 | hey siretart | 09:47 |
| jtan325 | dpkg -i automatically does the upgrade? | 09:47 |
| ajmitch | that's what it's for | 09:47 |
| jtan325 | ok awesome. thanks | 09:48 |
| ajmitch | --update-available is not used for installing anything | 09:48 |
| === siretart looks up --update-available | ||
| jtan325 | haha | 09:48 |
| ajmitch | I don't understand why you'd want to use --update-available? | 09:48 |
| siretart | no, a mere user won't need that at all | 09:48 |
| jtan325 | no i have no idea what's going on | 09:51 |
| jtan325 | i just did man dpkg | 09:51 |
| jtan325 | and it looked like the closest thing to what i needed :-) | 09:51 |
| jtan325 | what's the standard versioning for a pre-release? | 09:52 |
| jtan325 | i.e. we're releasing 1.3.0 on sunday | 09:52 |
| jtan325 | 1.2.9 was what i could think of | 09:52 |
| ajmitch | something like that, yes | 09:52 |
| ajmitch | or 1.2.9+1.3.0.alpha1 :) | 09:52 |
| siretart | nowadays, recent dpkg also support '~' | 09:58 |
| siretart | so you could also give your package the version 1.3.0~alpha1 | 09:59 |
| siretart | which would be less than 1.3.0 | 09:59 |
| siretart | note that this won't work with dpkg in sarge or earlier | 09:59 |
| Seveas | I love that ~ trick | 10:03 |
| Seveas | I'm using it for backports :) | 10:03 |
| ajmitch | and not with the current debian archive, iirc | 10:03 |
| ajmitch | since dak isn't using that code yet | 10:03 |
| siretart | ajmitch: ubuntu's dak seems to support it: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/hoary-backports/ | 10:17 |
| siretart | yay! using gpg-agent has never been easier. just a 'echo use-session-pgp-agent | sudo tee -a /etc/X11/Xsession.options' and you are done | 10:17 |
| === siretart wonders why this is not enabled by default | ||
| Treenaks | siretart: because not everyone has a pgp agent | 10:18 |
| Treenaks | uh | 10:18 |

| siretart | background: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=276979 | 10:54 |
| siretart | the binary package HAS a shlibs file, I can see it with dpkg -I. But why is this not sufficient for debhelper to create a versioned depend? | 10:55 |
| pef | anyone using OOo on breezy ? | 10:55 |
| siretart | pef: does OOo2 cound? | 10:55 |
| siretart | count? | 10:55 |
| pef | yes, 2, sorry :) | 10:56 |
| pef | siretart, can you confirm me OOo2 has a "qt" look ? | 10:57 |
| pef | isn't it a bug ? | 10:57 |
| siretart | pef: err, my openoffice has a nice gtk2 look | 11:00 |
| siretart | ? | 11:00 |
| ajmitch | siretart: the debian library packaging guide can probably answer better than I can | 11:00 |
| crimsun_ | pef: dpkg -l gtk2-engines-gtk-qt|grep ^ii | 11:01 |
| ajmitch | siretart: basiclly the shlibs file needs some version info | 11:02 |
| ajmitch | eg: libopenal 0 libopenal0 (>=0.2005080600-1) | 11:03 |

| jtan325 | someone who knows i'm really me | 01:06 |
| jtan325 | should sign my key | 01:06 |
| jtan325 | ? | 01:06 |

| siretart | j^: what did you change in comparison to thom's version? | 01:57 |
| siretart | j^: yes, but there is no .orig.tar.gz, this is pain for reviewing | 01:57 |
| j^ | ah, http://bootlab.org/~j/bazaar/ | 01:57 |
| j^ | siretart because its a cvs snapshot, there is not orig.tar.gz | 01:58 |
| siretart | j^: you can still create an orig.tar.gz by doing a cvs export | 01:58 |
| j^ | compared to thoms version it uses bind9 again | 01:58 |
| siretart | i see | 01:59 |
| siretart | j^: Please prepare an upload as non-native version, so that debian packaging and upstream work is clearly separated | 01:59 |

| siretart | the dokumentation of tla-buildpackage was better than arch-buildpackage | 02:07 |

| Mithrandir | so it works for me, at least. | 02:29 |

| siretart | DTRT? | 02:31 |
| Mithrandir | do the right thing | 02:33 |
| siretart | ah | 02:33 |
| j^ | Mithrandir but it also depends on tla, so you have tla installed too? | 02:34 |
| Mithrandir | yes, I have that, but I don't really care about what dependencies I have; if so, I'd just recompile the package locally and remove the dependency. | 02:35 |

| siretart | j^: did you try to build network-manager in pbuilder? | 04:01 |
| siretart | checking for XML::Parser... configure: error: XML::Parser perl module is required for intltool | 04:01 |
| siretart | make: *** [config.status] Error 1 | 04:01 |
| siretart | :( | 04:01 |
| slomo | Build-Depend on intltool probably | 04:01 |
| siretart | j^: README.Debian tells to contact thom about the package. is that still correct? | 04:02 |
| j^ | siretart at some point infinity said he would take over, since he did not i did not change those things | 04:03 |
| j^ | not sure what the best way it to maintain this package | 04:04 |
| j^ | it will be in univers for breezy and should go into main in breezy+1 | 04:04 |
| siretart | j^: since you have done so much love to the package, I'd propose you for maintainership for this | 04:05 |
| siretart | and since it was dropped for breezy, I don't except any objections from thom | 04:05 |
| siretart | checking for dhcdbd... no | 04:05 |
| siretart | configure: error: dhcdbd was not installed. See http://people.redhat.com/jvdias/dhcdbd | 04:05 |
| siretart | huch? | 04:06 |
| j^ | oh | 04:06 |
| j^ | i must have missed something rebuilding with .orig.gz | 04:06 |
| siretart | I rather think there are build dependencies missing | 04:06 |
| slomo | j^: nm isn't currently in debian, isn't it? | 04:06 |
| siretart | slomo: no | 04:07 |
| j^ | slomo no, its not, right now | 04:07 |
| slomo | then why *-2 as version number? wouldn't something like *-0ubuntuY be more appropiate? | 04:07 |
| j^ | siretart dhcdbd is not needed to build, but configure checks for it | 04:07 |
| siretart | so configure should be fixed, then | 04:08 |
| slomo | or you should just add dhcdbd to Build-Depends | 04:08 |
| siretart | if added to build depends, package building fine on pbuilder/amd64 | 04:08 |
| j^ | thom was picky about patching configure | 04:09 |
| slomo | siretart: for fixing configure or other autotools stuff talk to infinity... he can tell you some really nice stories about timestamps ;) | 04:10 |
| siretart | slomo: I guess so | 04:10 |
| siretart | j^: please provide a fixed package. You can remove debian/README.Debian and clean up debian/rules at this opportunity | 04:10 |
| slomo | j^: i would just add intltool and dhcdbd to Build-Depends... builds fine here on pbuilder/x86 | 04:11 |
| siretart | another option would be to patch configure.in to not bail out | 04:12 |
| j^ | siretart thats what i did and its upstream, so if it still checks i have to check why | 04:12 |
| === MagnusR [n=magru@85.194.14.142] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| siretart | j^: ok. please ping either me or slomo when you prepared a new package | 04:13 |
| slomo | siretart: infinity said something about that patch doesn't garantue to get the timestamps in the correct order in some cases... you have to get them right with some touches in rules then | 04:13 |
| siretart | slomo: so configure should be touched after patching it? | 04:14 |
| slomo | siretart: yes... configure needs to be "newer" than configure.in / configure.ac | 04:14 |
| Mitario | crimsun_, thatnks for updating the packages btw :) | 04:15 |
| slomo | siretart: that is... when upstream doesn't use AM_MAINTAINER_MODE in configure.in / .ac... in that case it doesn't look at timestamps (at least the docs say that) | 04:15 |
| siretart | I see.. | 04:15 |
| slomo | j^: update standards version to 3.6.2 while you're at it ;) | 04:15 |
| siretart | j^: please don't take it personnaly. We really want to sponsor your first upload :) | 04:16 |
| slomo | j^: and one small cosmetical change... in copyright remove the (s) :) then the package is perfect imho ;) | 04:17 |

| Mitario | slomo, thatnks I'm also still trying to figure it out | 04:54 |
| Mitario | hmm, gconf seems to depend on libglitz | 04:54 |
| slomo | wtf... then tell seb128 about it when he's back from vacation ;) | 04:54 |
| Mitario | when's that? :) | 04:54 |
| slomo | no idea... monday maybe | 04:55 |
| Mitario | ok | 04:55 |
| Mitario | i'll e-mail him | 04:55 |
| Mitario | so every pkg should get rid of libglitz? | 04:55 |
| slomo | yes... don't add libglitz-dev to the build-depends... never ;) when it doesn't build then look where the problem lies... and when it's a library in main tell someone on #ubuntu-devel... maybe it's the best to do this for gconf too and not wait for seb128 | 04:56 |

| jbailey | slomo: I am. | 06:03 |
| jbailey | slomo: What's up/ | 06:03 |
| slomo | jbailey: on x86 it tells my it can't mount 301 as root partition and then jumps to busybox... when adding root=/dev/hda1 to the kernel commandline everything works | 06:04 |
| j^ | slomo thats bad, how can i change permissions on files only in diff? | 06:05 |
| jbailey | slomo: What version of initramfs-tools are you using? | 06:05 |
| slomo | jbailey: 0.23... i haven't tried with 0.24 yet but from the changelog there wasn't changed something in that direction | 06:06 |
| === j^ notes one can not just use arch-buildpackage without retesting it with patch only... | ||
| slomo | j^: add a chmod +x configure in rules ;) don't know anything better | 06:07 |
| jbailey | Did you regenerate the initramfs after updating the initramfs-tools | 06:09 |
| slomo | jbailey: yes... for 0.23 i've done... shall i retest with 0.24? | 06:09 |
| slomo | jbailey: i've called mkinitramfs -o /boot/initrd.img-2.6.12-7-k7 2.6.12-7-k7 | 06:10 |
| jbailey | No, 0.23 has everything you need. | 06:10 |
| whiprush | \sh: that's cool, thanks. <3 | 06:10 |
| \sh | whiprush: u r welcome :) I fixed it already..but fixing some other stuff as well... | 06:12 |
| slomo | jbailey: any ideas? or shall i tell you the ppc problem first? seems to be something related | 06:12 |
| whiprush | excellent! | 06:12 |
| whiprush | I really dig gajim. | 06:12 |
| jbailey | slomo: Sorry, phone rang. | 06:13 |
| jbailey | The question then is why isn't it triggering for you? | 06:13 |
| jbailey | slomo: You have a /dev/.initramfs-tools file, right? | 06:13 |
| slomo | jbailey: nope | 06:14 |
| jbailey | Then your initramfs isn't up to date. | 06:14 |
| jbailey | I added that file in 0.23 =) | 06:14 |
| jbailey | So let's figure out what's wrong there, first. | 06:15 |
| \sh | whiprush: there r some pitfalls in it (gpg-agent signes as well presence messages) etc. but we will fix all issues...I'm working with upstream and debian maintainer on it :) | 06:15 |
| jbailey | Although, FWIW, you may as well update to 0.24 in the meantime. | 06:15 |
| slomo | jbailey: already done... and called mkinitramfs again | 06:15 |
| jbailey | 'kay, so let's check your lilo config. | 06:16 |
| whiprush | \sh: that's awesome. | 06:16 |
| jbailey | Which initramfs file is it pointing to? | 06:16 |
| whiprush | \sh: I hadn't even noticed it did gpg | 06:16 |
| jbailey | Usually it's /initrd.img | 06:16 |
| jbailey | In which case we need to check to make sure that symlink is up to date, and rerun lilo either way. | 06:16 |
| xhaker | someone using wireless here that can send a file with the iwlist scan output? | 06:16 |
| slomo | jbailey: yes it is... und the file is up to date and i've rerun lilo after updating it in the past... hasn't helped much | 06:17 |
| slomo | jbailey: but when running lilo i get a warning | 06:17 |
| jbailey | What's the warning say? =) | 06:17 |
| slomo | jbailey: Warning: '/proc/partitions' does not match '/dev' directory structure. | 06:17 |
| slomo | Name change: '/dev/dm-0' -> '/dev/evms/hda1' | 06:17 |
| jbailey | Ugh, you're using evms? | 06:18 |
| slomo | jbailey: no | 06:18 |
| jbailey | Oh good. That won't work until next week. =) | 06:18 |
| jbailey | So that warning shouldn't matter. | 06:18 |
| jbailey | As root, please do: mkdir /tmp/initramfs; cd /tmp/initramfs; zcat /boot/initrd.img-2.6.12-7-k7 | cpio -i | 06:19 |
| jbailey | Let's take a look inside this thing. | 06:19 |
| \sh | whiprush: u can assign a gpg key to your account and to every contact | 06:20 |
| slomo | jbailey: wait... evms (and lvm) is in rcS.d... but i haven't configured anything in that direction... does this matter? | 06:20 |
| jbailey | Nope. | 06:20 |
| \sh | whiprush: and since -1ubuntu4 it can use gpg-agent and seahorse-agent | 06:20 |
| jbailey | It's just evms being enthusiastic, no worries. | 06:20 |
| slomo | jbailey: ok... initrd decompressed | 06:21 |
| jbailey | 'kay, so look in the init file, and somewhere in there you should see the command 'parse_numeric ${ROOT}' | 06:21 |
| slomo | jbailey: yes | 06:21 |
| jbailey | Do you have two machines? | 06:22 |
| jbailey | Like, can we chat while you reboot? | 06:22 |
| slomo | jbailey: yes... my ibook which can't boot because of something similar ;) and as i tried to reinstall breezy from a dayly there i don't have a backup kernel/initrd ;) | 06:22 |
| j^ | slomo ok now with chmod +x ./configure | 06:23 |
| slomo | jbailey: so tell me what i have to do, what to look for etc... :) | 06:23 |
| jbailey | Well, I want you to reboot and get to a prompt, and we'll check to see if parse_numeric is in the init in there. | 06:24 |
| jbailey | Since when you boot, that file that should be there isn't, I suspect that you're updating the wrong initramfs somehow. Now we need to prove me wrong. =) | 06:25 |
| slomo | jbailey: ok... i'll check it :) brb | 06:25 |

| slomo | \sh: do you already have your account? i've send my ssh key but got no answer :/ | 07:46 |
| \sh | slomo: yes..I had it renewed... | 07:46 |
| \sh | slomo: u asked him about an account? | 07:46 |
| \sh | slomo: It would be ok..if we would get some pegasos developer machines..the gentoo devs got some from them to fix some bugs for ppc | 07:47 |
| slomo | \sh: yes... after you told me that he can get my ssh access ;) | 07:48 |
| \sh | slomo: ask him again :) on monday | 07:48 |
| \sh | or ping maswan he can do it as well on ravel | 07:49 |
| slomo | \sh: when pegasos does this i'm the first who wants one =) i hate my slow ibook for fixing bugs... | 07:49 |
| \sh | slomo: they're doing those things...but not everytime... | 07:49 |

| \sh | or we can write a request to apple to send some old but fast powerpcs ,-) | 07:50 |

| slomo | hm, i would prefer the pegasos machines... they're much quieter ;) but a good old ppc would be fine too :) | 07:51 |
| slomo | \sh: did someone already ask pegasos? | 07:52 |
| \sh | slomo: I send a request earlier, because the debian release manager is working for pegasos | 07:58 |

| \sh | slomo: no | 08:05 |
| slomo | j^: please put your configure.in patch in a dpatch... in the diff.gz should be only changes to the debian directory... same for the stuff in src and gnome | 08:06 |
| j^ | slomo i want to use bazzar.ubuntu.com and not dpatch | 08:07 |
| j^ | the patch will be upstream by monday anyway | 08:08 |
| \sh | what has bazaar to do with dpatch or patch? | 08:09 |
| tseng | thats what i was wondering | 08:09 |
| slomo | j^: but anyways... changes to sources files in the diff.gz will only make updates to another upstream version more difficult... get the patches from bazaar and put them in a dpatch ;) | 08:09 |
| \sh | slomo: please.no dpatch...,-) | 08:09 |

| tseng | um | 08:10 |
| slomo | \sh: why don't you like dpatch? ;) | 08:10 |
| tseng | yeah | 08:10 |
| \sh | it's horrible | 08:10 |
| j^ | i see this future where you use baz to maintain the debian/ubuntu branch of a package | 08:10 |
| tseng | how is it more horrible than simple-patchsys | 08:10 |
| tseng | they do the same thing | 08:10 |
| j^ | and there is not need to use patches | 08:10 |
| \sh | tseng: the format of dpatch is not "normal" | 08:10 |
| \sh | j^: for upstream of course when they're not using baz/bzr | 08:11 |
| tseng | yeah it has like 5 extra lines | 08:11 |
| slomo | \sh: my dpatchs are just diffs with 4 lines above ;) | 08:11 |
| \sh | tseng: yes :) | 08:11 |
| tseng | who cares? | 08:11 |
| \sh | but they're not applying to upstream ,-) | 08:11 |
| tseng | patch ignores extras anyway | 08:11 |
| \sh | upstream takes patch not dpatch files | 08:11 |
| j^ | \sh true, but no patches in debian/patches | 08:11 |
| \sh | j^: hu? baz/bzr won't help u to avoid debian/patches | 08:12 |
| slomo | \sh: fine... you ask my questions :) | 08:12 |
| j^ | in baz you create a fork of upstream, applying debian patches | 08:13 |
| \sh | j^: it means, you play upstream | 08:13 |
| j^ | if you now undo this process and put them as patches in debian/patches | 08:13 |
| j^ | you are better off not to use baz at all | 08:13 |
| \sh | j^: but it doesn't say, that you don't need normal patches to send upstream | 08:13 |
| j^ | \sh i am upstream | 08:13 |
| j^ | as much as i am the maintainer | 08:14 |
| \sh | j^: I don't think u know the diff between debianizing and branching | 08:14 |
| \sh | debian/ dir in upstream sources is a nono, even in a forked upstream | 08:14 |
| \sh | source | 08:14 |
| j^ | \sh listening to mark this morning this is the same thing | 08:14 |
| \sh | j^: no..where did mark say that? | 08:15 |

| slomo | \sh: btw... please notify me when you get an answer from pegasos ;) | 08:16 |
| j^ | mark says that in all talks about distributed version control | 08:16 |
| j^ | today that was akademy | 08:16 |
| j^ | or http://stream.fluendo.com:8850 | 08:16 |

| \sh | no mpg file? | 08:17 |
| j^ | theora only | 08:17 |
| \sh | j^: ok...wher? | 08:18 |
| j^ | it was a live stream, i just asked for the archive, will let you know once i i do | 08:19 |
| j^ | but that is just a sidetrack | 08:19 |
| j^ | packages like tla-buildpackage or arch-buildpakcage or http://debian.madduck.net/pkg-zope/wiki/Arch/Package/Upstream | 08:19 |
| slomo | j^: but for the time beeing just put these changes in debian/patches ;) | 08:20 |
| \sh | j^: u read what madduck was saying in the last paragraph? | 08:21 |
| \sh | Now we merely need to merge the feature and debianisation branches into the integration branch, document our changes in debian/changelog and prepare a new package. Don't forget to seal the package after the upload. | 08:21 |
| \sh | it means, that u have source + debian dir in different repos and merging them together | 08:21 |
| \sh | and reading the upper explanations, all the commands are showing this as well | 08:22 |
| j^ | \sh still you can make changes to source | 08:22 |
| \sh | j^: yes, but unlikely not all upstream will use baz/bzr, so you should be able to provide real unified patches | 08:23 |
| \sh | and send them upstream | 08:23 |
| j^ | \sh to configure.in | 08:23 |
| j^ | not to configure Makefile.in etc | 08:23 |
| \sh | so debian/patches system will apply again...even to send them to debian maintainers | 08:24 |
| \sh | now I'm lost | 08:24 |
| \sh | can u elaborate? | 08:24 |
| j^ | if you have a tarball release of upstream it might make sence to patch the output of the buildsystem(this is quite often autotools) | 08:25 |
| \sh | yes | 08:26 |
| \sh | go further | 08:26 |
| j^ | if upstream only tags in cvs(which is mirrored on bazaar.ubuntu.com) using a branch in baz with the changes + merging them at the next update is what i want to do | 08:27 |
| j^ | fiddeling with patches does not help here | 08:27 |
| \sh | j^: send patches to upstream but...and when you fix a serious issue in upstream source, u should provide patches to upstream | 08:28 |
| \sh | upstream is the highest priority... | 08:28 |
| j^ | and so far i am more upstream of networkmanager than ubuntu or debian maintainer | 08:28 |
| j^ | and providing patches to upstream works best with baz | 08:29 |
| j^ | not with debian/patches | 08:29 |
| \sh | as maintainer or ubuntu dev u fix bugs even in upstream, provide them as patches directly in .diff.gz or if their are bigger patches in debian/patches..so u can send the contents of debian/patches to upstream | 08:29 |
| \sh | s/their/there/ | 08:30 |
| slomo | \sh: err... didn't we say that the only changes in the diff.gz should be in the debian directory? | 08:30 |
| \sh | and upstream can incorporate them in his source | 08:30 |
| \sh | slomo: yeah...but there r some packages where the changes are only in diff.gz. | 08:30 |
| \sh | (bittorrent as an example) | 08:30 |
| slomo | \sh: the same is the case for j^'s package... and this discussion happened as i said him to move this changes to a patch in debian/patches ;) was this wrong? | 08:31 |
| \sh | slomo: no | 08:31 |
| \sh | but actually I don't understand him...or he doesn't understand the packaging work...at least I'm lost | 08:32 |
| Mitario | btw why is the kaffe package a debian/ dir and a tarball? because of the size of the source? | 08:33 |
| slomo | \sh: hehe, me too... and i don't know enough about bazaar/arch/whatever... but anyways, the changes must be in a seperate patch... | 08:34 |
| slomo | Mitario: is the tarball a tar.bz2? otherwise... maybe because the packager likes it that way ;) | 08:34 |

| \sh | j^: ok..explain again why you don't want to put patches into debian/patches...I asked madduck to listen or to read the backlog so he gets the point... | 08:54 |
| j^ | i use bazzar.ubuntu.com to get upstream sources, use baz to create a branch for debian, maintain the debian folder in an extra baz archive and use arch-buildpackage to get upstream, branch, debian-dir and build the package | 08:56 |
| j^ | *branch for ubuntu | 08:57 |
| j^ | this way i might be able to create patches of upstream -> ubuntu branch and put them in debian/patches to use ustream + patches, but why would i use baz than in the first place. and arch-buildpackage would also be no help anymore. | 08:58 |

| madduck | is the issue why baz branches instead of dpatch? | 08:59 |
| j^ | \sh argues i can only use dpatch and not a baz branch yes | 08:59 |
| madduck | \sh: dpatches are also part of the .diff.gz ... | 09:00 |
| tgall | does anyone here work on the ppc / ppc64 port ? | 09:00 |
| madduck | the main selling point of baz over dpatch is that baz supports star-merge while dpatch is just stupid patch. | 09:00 |
| madduck | so it's *much* harder to keep dpatches around across several upstream releases than it is to maintain feature branches. | 09:01 |
| === Whistler [n=admin@85.206.160.120] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| madduck | \sh: dpatch can be fully replaced by Manoj's way of doing packages in arch. | 09:02 |
| \sh | madduck: but providing diff.gz instead of separated patches (or dpatches) is sometimes ok, but sometimes the changes are quite serious (security e.g.) and we should provide the patches to upstream (which are not using baz/bzr/arch) so debian/patches is sometimes comfortable | 09:02 |
| j^ | while in this case upstream will have merged the changes to HEAD before the package will be in ubuntu | 09:02 |
| \sh | madduck: I'm thinking of giving back the changes (when they're not ubuntu specific or distro specific) | 09:03 |
| madduck | \sh: see the bottom of http://debian.madduck.net/pkg-zope/wiki/Arch/Package/Feature | 09:03 |
| \sh | madduck: and many sources don't use baz/bzr | 09:03 |
| madduck | \sh: all branches except (debian, devo, integration, upstream) are designed to go to upstream. | 09:04 |
| madduck | that's what makes them "feature branches"? | 09:04 |
| madduck | tr -d \? | 09:04 |
| \sh | madduck: understand, but it means, then we have created a ubuntu package with unbuntu source (so we're upstream in the way of thinking) and we're sending deltas between upstream sourceand ubuntu soure | 09:05 |
| \sh | to upstream | 09:05 |
| madduck | what's ubuntu source? | 09:05 |
| \sh | ok | 09:05 |
| \sh | elaborate | 09:06 |
| \sh | I'll pull the actual cvs source from pyqt | 09:06 |
| \sh | and create a -uptream branch on e.g. bazaar.ubuntu.com | 09:06 |
| \sh | now I branch it a bit further to --ubuntu-version | 09:06 |
| \sh | change the source | 09:07 |
| \sh | and create a package from this --ubuntu-version source | 09:07 |
| madduck | --ubuntu--version? | 09:07 |
| \sh | pyqt--ubuntu-version ,-) | 09:07 |
| madduck | ok. | 09:07 |
| \sh | now... | 09:07 |
| madduck | that branch should contain all the ubuntu specific things. | 09:07 |
| madduck | and only those. | 09:07 |
| \sh | yeah | 09:07 |
| madduck | go on. | 09:08 |
| \sh | for this branch I'm upstream | 09:08 |
| \sh | but only for ubuntu (not for debian nor real upstream) | 09:08 |
| madduck | if you want to call it that. i don't think it's very accurate to put it like that. | 09:08 |
| madduck | you are the maintainer of the delta between upstream and ubuntu-version. | 09:08 |
| \sh | well..if the patches I'm applied are not in "real upstream source", I'm responsible for the source | 09:08 |
| madduck | just the diff | 09:09 |
| madduck | but yeah, i know what you mean. | 09:09 |
| \sh | (happened for the pykde packages in ubuntu right now) | 09:09 |
| madduck | so what's the issue? | 09:09 |
| \sh | now I'm going to upstream and have to send the patches I made (if they're not ubuntu specific) so I create deltas | 09:10 |
| madduck | wait! | 09:10 |
| madduck | if they are not ubuntu-specific, they should be in their own branch. not in the ubuntu-version branch. | 09:10 |
| madduck | in fact, ubuntu-versions is a bad name. | 09:10 |
| madduck | just use 'ubuntu' | 09:10 |
| madduck | or heck, just use debian and make it such that it applies to both. :) | 09:11 |
| \sh | ok..what I mean is, that providing the patches only inside diff.gz is for packagers sometimes a pain | 09:11 |
| madduck | but packagers should use the baz repo, no? or whom are we talking about? | 09:12 |
| madduck | i know what you mean... dpatches are nice, contained changesets fwiw | 09:12 |
| \sh | because after apt-get source the diff.gz is applied and you have to create a view between orig.tar.gz source and the resulting orig.tar.gz source + diff.gz | 09:12 |
| madduck | and as thus make it a lot easier to keep track of a number of patches. | 09:12 |
| madduck | yeah, and then it's just one massive diff. | 09:13 |
| === tvo [n=tobi@5354EA9B.cable.casema.nl] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| \sh | so if the changes in upstream orig source are more then 2-20 lines it's better to provide those changes as dpatches/unified diffs in debian/patches | 09:13 |
| madduck | and you prefer dpatches because they make it easier to see how the package differs from upstream. | 09:13 |
| madduck | my take on this is: | 09:13 |
| madduck | the only one that is really interested in that diff/those diffs is myself, co-maintainers, and all NMUers | 09:14 |
| madduck | sure, a user may look at it, but that should not be our primary focus. | 09:14 |
| madduck | so, for developers, what counts is that baz merging is vastly superior to dpatch | 09:14 |
| madduck | and thus makes package maintenance easier. | 09:15 |
| madduck | my goal for my phd is to make the baz method accessible and intuitive to everyone | 09:15 |
| madduck | so that it hopefully becomes a standard. | 09:15 |
| madduck | then every NMUer would just be able to branch off the baz stuff and prepare an NMU without hassle. | 09:15 |
| madduck | one thing i was considering all along is to put feature branches into the .diff.gz | 09:16 |
| madduck | similarly to dpatch | 09:16 |
| madduck | rather than merging them into the integration branch | 09:16 |
| madduck | for precisely the reason you state | 09:16 |
| madduck | but i have not found a good way to do this yet without requiring a baz build-dependency | 09:16 |
| \sh | with "feature branches" u mean: changes towards the upstream source, only applying to the distribution you create the changes for | 09:17 |
| \sh | aeh missing a ? | 09:17 |
| madduck | no. that's the debianisation or the ubuntuisation branch | 09:18 |
| madduck | a feature branch is what i'll send to upstream later. | 09:18 |
| \sh | oh ok | 09:18 |
| madduck | so in some way, one feature branch is one dpatch | 09:18 |
| madduck | or more than one dpatch | 09:18 |
| madduck | and when i convert my existing packages to baz, i usually just branch off upstream, apply some related dpatches, commmit, delete dpatches, branch again, apply some other dpatches, commit, delete dpatches. | 09:19 |
| madduck | i was doing this as part of the arch live demo on IRC. | 09:19 |
| \sh | that means but, that all changes someone made has to be logged in debian/changelog clearly as possible...so one of the other packagers know what happend... | 09:20 |
| madduck | i have started to create one changelog for each feature branch | 09:21 |
| madduck | and there are the VCS logs too. | 09:21 |
| \sh | I hope jblack is a lucky guy and can convience as many upstream authors as he can reach to change from cvs/svn to baz/bzr/arch ,-) | 09:22 |
| \sh | madduck: thx for clarification of all this "crazyness" :) | 09:24 |
| j^ | madduck did you look at arch-buildpackage, the version in debian supports bazaar now | 09:24 |
| madduck | j^: yes, i believe i noted that at the bottom of the irc live meeting log. | 09:25 |

| slomo | \sh: ok fine... but in that case i will not update the package to another upstream release when the diff.gz doesn't apply cleanly :P for such things bazaar is then the better solution? | 09:49 |

| \sh | slomo: the diff.gz should be the delta between orig.tar.gz and the bazaar branch...when I understand madduck correctly | 09:51 |
| \sh | slomo: I have to play with it.and trial and error madducks explanations :) | 09:51 |
| slomo | \sh: so when the package is updated to a newer upstream it get's updated per bazaar and then i do the packaging from bazaar? and not as before with uupdate for example? | 09:52 |
| \sh | slomo: there is a orig upstream import in bazaar and a local branch of your changes (also in as a local bazaar repos) | 09:53 |
| slomo | \sh: but the "local" branch has to be made public when i package something with it, right? otherwise other people can't easily update the package... or is the local branch included with the diff (all the arch directories) | 09:55 |
| \sh | the local branch is the diff.gz | 09:55 |
| slomo | so when i use bazaar i can easily update from upstream? | 09:56 |
| \sh | no | 09:56 |
| \sh | you have to import | 09:56 |
| slomo | hmm... but when i have imported upstream and have the unpacked package (with diff applied) lying around i can easily merge these two? | 09:58 |
| slomo | (hmm... we must be insane to talk about such things on a saturday evening ;) ) | 09:58 |
| \sh | yeah phoning | 09:58 |
| tgall | any powerpc types around ? | 10:00 |
| slomo | tgall: me... but mine is currently unbootable ;) | 10:00 |
| tgall | slomo, heh .. I'm trying to connect with someone that does powerpc work for both mentoring and basically to fix the install cd to it runs on IBM ppc64 hardware | 10:02 |
| tgall | slomo, I have linux on my ppc64 boxen but .. not exactly ubuntu :-) | 10:02 |
| slomo | tgall: ah ok... then i'm probably not the right address ;) i only have a normal ppc (G4)... better ask in #ubuntu-devel for such things | 10:03 |
