| jdub | BACK IN YOUR BOX! | 01:07 |
| Robot101 | jbailey: I can't switch from my own kernel to a stock kernel because mine uses /dev/hdX for my SATA, the stock uses /dev/sdX | 01:07 |
| jbailey | Only because I've been hauling boxes. | 01:07 |
| jbailey | Robot101: And you have a dislike of using SCSI device names? =) | 01:08 |
| Robot101 | jbailey: no, the stock uses libata for my VIA SATA, and my kernel config predates libata and I never changed it yet | 01:08 |
| jbailey | Ah. =) | 01:08 |
| jbailey | So something that'll need to change eventually, just not right now. | 01:08 |
| Robot101 | now I'm bored of compiling kernels, and I certainly don't want to have to hand-compile a kernel that uses libata soley so that mkinitrd can write the correct devices into /script | 01:09 |
| jbailey | Oh, I see. =) | 01:09 |
| jbailey | Yeah, mkinitrd sucks for a number of reasons. | 01:09 |
| Robot101 | how much will I need to pull from breezy to make this go? | 01:09 |
| jbailey | Gimme a sec, I'll see what I can assemble for you. | 01:10 |

| jbailey | ;) | 01:20 |
| Robot101 | Kernel version too old. initramfs-tools requires at least 2.6.12. | 01:20 |
| Robot101 | egg... chicken... | 01:20 |
| jbailey | Err. 2.6.12-1-k7 *is* 2.6.12... | 01:20 |
| Robot101 | yes but that's the kernel I'm trying to get working, not the one I'm running :D | 01:21 |
| jbailey | Can you please check to see how you're tripping the version check? | 01:21 |
| jbailey | It shouldn't be checking the running kernel. | 01:21 |
| jbailey | Oh! | 01:21 |

| jbailey | No, mountvirtfs does | 01:33 |
| Robot101 | that's odd | 01:33 |
| jbailey | Swiching to stock kernels now should be as simple booting with it and changing the root= line in grub, I think. | 01:34 |
| Robot101 | with mkinitramfs you mean | 01:35 |
| jbailey | Right. | 01:35 |

| jdub | Mitario: you in amsterdam? | 01:36 |
| Mitario | jdub, umm, 'bout 50km | 01:36 |
| Robot101 | well the reason mkinitrd didn't work was because a) it didn't load my sata driver plus b) it hardcoded the path to my SATA drives as hdX | 01:36 |
| Mitario | jdub, 1 hour by train :) | 01:36 |
| Mitario | jdub, or do you actually mean now? | 01:36 |
| Robot101 | jbailey: can I put something in kernel-img.conf to use mkinitramfs from now on? | 01:37 |
| jdub | Mitario: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BadgerBadgerBadgerTour | 01:37 |
| jbailey | Robot101: Right. There's none of that hardcoded in there. | 01:37 |
| jbailey | Robot101: Ubuntu's kernels will do it automatically. I don't think Debian's kernels have the hack, but they might. Try adding: "ramdisk = /usr/sbin/mkinitramfs | 01:37 |
| jbailey | " | 01:37 |
| jbailey | ISTR Fabio sent it off to Manoj, but I didn't track if it was accepted or not. | 01:38 |

| Robot101 | scratch that, it is. | 01:38 |

| xTina | I tried it repeatedly on multiple systems with automated installs -- if I insert a dist-upgrade before installing kubuntu-desktop, the installation fails in 90% of the attempts, if I keep the old dpkg until kubuntu-desktop has been installed it works 100%. | 01:44 |

| jbailey | There's some clever features in the newer udev that if you've never had, you won't miss. =0 | 01:57 |
| desrt | clever? | 01:57 |
| Robot101 | jbailey: Keybuk explained it the other day but I forgot what it was | 01:58 |
| jbailey | desrt: Where, there's bits like /dev/by-label and /dev/by-uuid | 01:58 |
| Robot101 | oh yeah, it deprecates almost all of hotplug because the kernel tells udev enough information to just read modules.foo itself and get the right module | 01:58 |
| Robot101 | so then you can put coldplug on | 01:59 |
| desrt | jbailey; oh. that's really cute. | 01:59 |
| jbailey | I think there's some other bits that can use the new socket interface of getting events from the kernel to react a bit more cleanly. | 01:59 |
| Robot101 | and be done with hotplug entirely | 01:59 |
| jbailey | Right, we do that in the initramfs. | 01:59 |
| jbailey | Which is why it requires 2.6.12 =) | 01:59 |

| jbailey | Yeah. | 01:59 |
| infinito | hi! | 01:59 |
| infinito | does anyone know what signal send gnome session to apps when closing? | 01:59 |
| infinito | i need to make some actions on my program before closing session... | 01:59 |
| Robot101 | so does that mean I can just take hotplug off my system if I have a sufficiently new udev? :) | 02:00 |
| jbailey | That's why it was able to detect everything for you, it doe sit all at boot time and just loads up most of the modules to give itself the most choice at bootup. | 02:00 |
| desrt | infinito; see the topic | 02:00 |
| jbailey | Robot101: No, the ide bus is still not covered. | 02:00 |
| jbailey | i think SCSI is now, though. | 02:00 |
| Robot101 | ah, you need a newer udev to be able to install coldplug | 02:00 |
| Robot101 | what happens if you coldplug twice? :) | 02:00 |
| infinito | desrt: i'm writing an app for ubuntu, is that included on ubuntu-development?? | 02:01 |
| desrt | infinito; cool. what app? | 02:01 |
| jbailey | Robot101: Nothing bad. The module is already loaded. | 02:01 |
| infinito | desrt: a webcam activity monitor applet | 02:01 |
| === Robot101 toasts hotplug... pile of crap | ||
| desrt | infinito; i think you're pretty much screwed if you're an applet :( | 02:02 |
| Robot101 | actually let me test if I get any ptys :) | 02:02 |
| desrt | infinito; consider making a note about your desired use case on the AppletsRevisited page of the gnome wiki | 02:03 |
| infinito | desrt: well, in fact is not an applet, is a tray icon that notifies when your webcam is on | 02:04 |
| Robot101 | jbailey: does it do everything, including sound etc? | 02:04 |
| Robot101 | jbailey: (in the initrd) | 02:04 |
| jbailey | Robot101: No, just storage and network. | 02:04 |
| jbailey | mm. | 02:04 |
| jbailey | And framebuffer and acpi. =) | 02:04 |
| desrt | infinito; either way, i don't think applets or tray icons get asked nicely when the session is about to end | 02:05 |
| desrt | infinito; the best you can do is probably register a signal on the 'destroyed' event of your eggtrayicon widget | 02:05 |
| Robot101 | desrt: eh? | 02:05 |
| desrt | infinito; btw. this isn't really related to ubuntu development | 02:05 |
| Robot101 | desrt: if it's a GnomeProgram you can use the gnome_session_* stuff | 02:05 |
| infinito | desrt: ok, sorry, thanks anyway :) | 02:06 |
| Robot101 | it probably emits signals to tell you gnome is closing down | 02:06 |

| Robot101 | sivang: it's a damn sight better at it than mkinitrd is | 12:29 |
| Robot101 | s/ing/img/ | 12:29 |
| sivang | Robot101: does it have anything to do with RAM ? =) (given it's name) | 12:30 |
| Robot101 | initramfs is just a better replacement for initrds in 2.6 kernels | 12:30 |
| sivang | Robot101: ah I see, so what does the ram in its name stands for? is it just its name? | 12:31 |
| azeem | sivang: same as in initrd, I guess | 12:31 |
| Robot101 | the kernel always has a rootfs, which is a RAM-based filesystem, and when given an initramfs image, which is a gzipped cpio thing, unpacks it into the rootfs | 12:31 |
| azeem | the r stands for ram | 12:31 |
| ompaul | ram as in random access memory or something else? | 12:31 |
| sivang | ompaul: yep, I think so | 12:32 |
| sivang | azeem: k, thanks | 12:32 |
| Robot101 | initramfs lets you use as much space as you want, and its writable | 12:32 |
| sivang | Robot101: how's that? | 12:32 |
| Robot101 | and you don't give the kernel a filesystem image, you give it a cpio.gz essentially | 12:32 |
| === highvoltage [n=Jono@196.7.130.34] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Robot101 | initrd sets you up a ramdisk device of a certain size, and unzips the initrd into it, then mounts that filesystem | 12:33 |
| Robot101 | so you only have as much space as your filesystem image | 12:33 |

| sivang | Robot101: what was the obsticle in making it variable size that initramfs overcame ? | 12:34 |
| Robot101 | sivang: tmpfs/ramfs/rootfs lets you store filesystems in the VFS file caches basically | 12:34 |
| Robot101 | sivang: so it's like a cache of files off disk filesystems, without a disk | 12:35 |
| === marcin_ant [n=marcin@www.e-dev.tele2.pl] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||

| === sebest [n=chatzill@sebest.ovibes.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| sivang | Robot101: right. makes sense. And initrd was just plain file that was read from disk in boot time, which entitled the size barrier? | 12:36 |
| Robot101 | sivang: whereas for an initrd image, the ramdisk is a pretend block device the kernel sets up for you, and they have a fixed size | 12:36 |
| === daniels [n=daniels@amnesiac.heapspace.net] has left #ubuntu-devel [] | ||
| Robot101 | sivang: the choice of using cramfs for the image makes for smaller initrds, but means that this pre-/ root filesystem can't be written, so the first thing that happens in the initrd is mounting up a load of tmpfs filesystems and copying stuff around | 12:37 |
| Robot101 | sivang: anyway, the use of initramfs in the kernel instead of initrd isn't the reason that mkinitramfs is better than mkinitrd | 12:37 |

| sivang | Robot101: then what is the reason? =) | 12:38 |
| siretart | woah. vdk is a beast.. | 12:38 |
| Robot101 | sivang: the reason is that mkinitrd is a crap fragile hack which produces initrds that don't reliably initialise your hardware and mount your / :P | 12:38 |
| sivang | Robot101: that's I've seen , that's probably because of all the loosy file copies and the size constraints no? | 12:38 |
| Robot101 | sivang: no, that's because mkinitrd is just crap | 12:38 |
| sivang | Robot101: say, as a side note, are you familiar with PKG_CHECK_MODULES directive in autoconf configure files? | 12:39 |

| shackan | is this a good place do ask where does g-n-m take information about active interfaces ? it's not e-n-i because it shows devices not mentioned in the interfaces file, and it's not hal for the same reason, and it's not ifconfig because it does not show all the interfaces ifconfig shows, so how does it work or where can I ask ? | 01:08 |

| hunger | shackan: I guess "all of the above" applies. | 01:11 |
| shackan | ugh | 01:12 |
| hunger | shackan: It definitly gets static configuration from /e/n/i from what I learned here. | 01:12 |
| hunger | shackan: But it does do additional device discovery. | 01:12 |
| hunger | shackan: Yeah, I know... it sucks. | 01:12 |
| shackan | I hope it could just use hal | 01:13 |
| === Keybuk [n=scott@syndicate.netsplit.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| hunger | shackan: Dynamic stuff defined in /e/n/i is ignored... | 01:13 |
| shackan | that's what it's meant to do.. | 01:13 |
| shackan | ok, briefly, I want a particular interface to show up in the manager | 01:14 |
| Robot101 | shackan: ifupdown stores state on interfaces in /var somewhere | 01:14 |
| hunger | shackan: Well, it is meant to configure interfaces. I do not care where it does store its configuration, but I hate it to be in several places. | 01:14 |
| Keybuk | Robot101: /etc | 01:14 |
| Keybuk | (at least, it used to be) | 01:14 |
| Robot101 | oh right | 01:15 |
| Keybuk | /etc/network/run/ifstate | 01:15 |
| Robot101 | why on earth is the busybox-cvs package in ubuntu based on the same orig.tar.gz as in debian, but contains a 5MB diff to a new upstream version? | 01:15 |
| Robot101 | that's obcenely lazy | 01:15 |
| hunger | NM is not installable on breezy right now anyway:-( | 01:16 |
| shackan | it seems if[up|down] requires an entry to be added to net/interfaces | 01:16 |
| hunger | Looks like j^'s debs are still not in universe. | 01:16 |
| Keybuk | because otherwise you'd have to change the upstream version? | 01:16 |
| hunger | shackan: Right. ifup/down needs that entry. NM does not use that though afaikt. | 01:16 |
| === hunger is no expert on NM though... Just played with it and did not like it too much. | ||
| Robot101 | Keybuk: I had to use initramfs-tools to render my sid desktop bootable because mkinitrd is so crap :) | 01:18 |
| === mxpxpod [n=bryan@unaffiliated/mxpxpod] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| shackan | thanks anyway | 01:19 |
| shackan | I'll look for an official site with a faq or something | 01:19 |
| Robot101 | Kamion: why does busybox-cvs in ubuntu have a 5MB diff? I'd like to merge the relevant changes to make initramfs stuff work into debian's busybox 1.x package | 01:20 |
| Robot101 | Kamion: but it's a little hard to.. uh... know which changes are relevant | 01:20 |
| === Robot101 gets incredibly confused | ||
| Robot101 | ah | 01:23 |
| Robot101 | Keybuk: http://people.ubuntu.com/~scott/patches/busybox-cvs/ seems to have rendered the entire package into a patch :) | 01:23 |
| HiddenWolf | lol | 01:23 |
| Keybuk | it would do | 01:23 |
| Robot101 | really? the sid one and the breezy one have the same orig.tar.gz | 01:24 |
| Keybuk | exactly, so the patch on that URL would be the entire difference of the .diff.gz | 01:24 |
| Keybuk | it's 5MB, as you said | 01:24 |
| === ivoks [n=ivoks@lns01-1409.dsl.iskon.hr] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Robot101 | Keybuk: no it's not, it's 82k | 01:25 |
| Keybuk | the .diff.gz ? | 01:25 |
| Robot101 | no, the interdiff from busybox-cvs_20040623-1.diff.gz to busybox-cvs_20040623-1ubuntu21.diff.gz | 01:25 |
| === Lathiat [i=lathiat@gasp.bur.st] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Robot101 | the debian diff.gz is 175445, and the ubuntu diff.gz is 191796, and they share the same orig.tar.gz | 01:26 |
| Keybuk | *shrug* | 01:26 |
| Robot101 | so the output on your page is bogus | 01:27 |
| Keybuk | almost certainly | 01:27 |
| Robot101 | you seem unconcerned :P | 01:27 |
| Keybuk | I am | 01:28 |
| Keybuk | if it's just that one package, there's probably something odd | 01:28 |
| Robot101 | given that this page is meant to be the magical oracle for Debian people to come and get their Ubuntu crack, it's not making it easy for me to understand what's been changed :P | 01:28 |
| Keybuk | looks like a lot of them have done that though | 01:28 |
| Keybuk | probably a bug | 01:28 |
| Robot101 | you still seem unconcerned :P | 01:29 |
| Keybuk | yes, it's Satday | 01:29 |
| Keybuk | with an "ur" in there | 01:29 |
| Robot101 | uuuur | 01:29 |
| Keybuk | I'll be concerned on Monday ;) | 01:29 |
| Robot101 | lol | 01:29 |
| Robot101 | fair enough | 01:29 |
| === Robot101 uses interdiff in the meantime | ||
| Keybuk | I'd guess it didn't like me wiping the files cache the other day | 01:30 |
| Robot101 | why is that not eg patches.ubuntu.com? :) | 01:30 |
| Keybuk | because | 01:30 |
| Keybuk | it's not an official service, I guess | 01:30 |
| Robot101 | it comes up very often in arguments against ubuntu being a fork... it probably should be :) | 01:31 |

| Robot101 | Keybuk: there we go, waldi would be happy to see a patch making busybox good for initramfs | 01:38 |
| Keybuk | hmm? | 01:38 |
| Robot101 | Keybuk: I'm trying to spread the mkinitramfs love into Debian :) | 01:39 |
| Keybuk | right ... | 01:39 |
| Robot101 | given it can make my computer boot, and mkinitrd can't | 01:39 |
| Robot101 | well I was just saying, he doesn't seem to be uncooperative... | 01:39 |
| Keybuk | right, it's certainly not all | 01:39 |
| Keybuk | but at some point the work to try and get the changes into Debian exceeds the benefit | 01:40 |
| azeem | hear, hear | 01:40 |
| Robot101 | but at some point you have more delta than you have people to maintain it | 01:40 |
| Keybuk | the fact he hasn't, despite their being a patch available, is somewhat indicitive | 01:40 |
| Keybuk | why doesn't the Debian version support initramfs? | 01:41 |
| Keybuk | the patch has been available all the time | 01:41 |
| Robot101 | was he even aware that ubuntu's version had been modified for supporting it? | 01:41 |
| Keybuk | he should have been | 01:41 |
| Keybuk | the Debian PTS and QA pages keep track of that these days | 01:41 |
| Keybuk | as a maintainer, keeping an eye on what other distributions are doing with the same package is kinda useful -- not just Debian-derivs but what RedHat are doing etc. | 01:42 |
| === Robot101 nods | ||
| === Elleo [n=Elleo@shellsong.plus.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Keybuk | in my experience the complaints are that the patch isn't handed to them on a gilded silver platter, perfectly tailored to their wishes, etc. | 01:43 |
| Keybuk | a lot of Debian maintainers just don't seem willing to do _any_ work to merge Ubuntu patches in | 01:44 |
| Keybuk | and expect Ubuntu to do all that work, rather than meeting half way | 01:44 |
| === mxpxpod [n=bryan@unaffiliated/mxpxpod] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Keybuk | we've done more than any other distribution to make it easy to find the differences | 01:44 |
| Keybuk | I've helped the QA and PTS people find out what's different | 01:45 |
| ajmitch | Robot101: it's a big challenge for universe, since we're spread so thin | 01:45 |
| ajmitch | we don't have time to tailor things for debian, generally | 01:45 |
| === Robot101 nods | ||
| Robot101 | fair enough | 01:47 |
| Robot101 | I don't really think you're an uncooperative fork | 01:47 |
| Robot101 | :) | 01:47 |
| Keybuk | I'm finding it slightly amusing that you're the first person to notice NDA hasn't worked for two months <g> | 01:47 |
| Keybuk | that really shows how many Debian people are using it :p | 01:47 |
| Keybuk | (actually, it's probably only a couple of weeks -- it would have survived the snapshot melt until I deleted the disk cache because it ran out of space) | 01:48 |
| Keybuk | Aug 24, in fact, is when it would've failed | 01:49 |
| azeem | Keybuk: the snapshot melt concerns only stuff from last year, so if there have been more recent Debian uploads, you wouldn't notice I guess | 01:49 |
| Keybuk | azeem: yeah, it'll be just where the Debian version the Ubuntu one is based off is before March 13th | 01:50 |
| Robot101 | this package is only so old because it's been superseded in debian | 01:50 |
| Robot101 | debian's not the only people with merging work to do :D | 01:50 |
| Keybuk | right, but we're in freeze, so we have to do all the merging work at the start of dapper | 01:51 |
| Robot101 | hrm, so in a month or two someone will be paid to do what I'm about to do now? | 01:51 |
| ajmitch | I think for universe, it'll take a few weeks just for merges at the start of the cycle | 01:51 |

| Kamion | Robot101: I was too scared to switch from busybox-cvs to busybox at the point that change happened in Debian ... as the man says, we'll do it for breezy+1 | 02:34 |
| Kamion | all the initramfs stuff was jbailey's work, anyway | 02:35 |
| Robot101 | Kamion: fair enough | 02:35 |
| Robot101 | I think I've already merged enough for the initramfs | 02:36 |
| Kamion | jbailey probably ought to have sent waldi a patch for that, if he wanted to merge stuff to Debian | 02:37 |
| Kamion | then again, there's a fair amount of busybox stuff I ought to have sent patches for, too | 02:38 |
| Robot101 | I'm highly keen on seeing it in debian, mkinitrd is just too stupid for words | 02:38 |
| Kamion | although I have sent some of it | 02:38 |
| Robot101 | it's very hard to migrate from a custom kernel to a stock kernel in a fair number of situations | 02:38 |

| marcin_ant | hi all - short question - there are 14 Google Soc Projects in breezy bounties | 05:49 |
| marcin_ant | release day was 01.09, so, could someone tell me what is the status of these projects? | 05:50 |
| marcin_ant | are there any reports etc. what's going on for example with bluetooth support goal? | 05:50 |
| ryanthiessen | marcin_ant: a lot of the SoC projects missed Breezy's feature freeze and will be included in breezy+1 | 05:51 |
| marcin_ant | ryanthiessen, ok but what about the status of these projects? | 05:52 |
| marcin_ant | ryanthiessen, 1. personally I would like to know if there is any work on bluetooth support and 2. I'm just curious if these Soc projects were successfull | 05:53 |

| marcin_ant | ryanthiessen, (it's pretty strange for me - $2 mln budget and I cannot see any list of accepted projects, any reports what's going on with these projects.... ) | 05:54 |
| hunger | marcin_ant: I bet there will be a paper by google soon, claiming a huge success... | 05:58 |
| hunger | marcin_ant: I have not yet heared of any myself though:-) | 05:58 |
| marcin_ant | hunger, well maybe but I'm not so sure... | 06:00 |
| marcin_ant | hunger, for example Chris DiBona announced a web page with list of accepted project at 04.07 | 06:01 |
| marcin_ant | hunger, and there is no such webpage since today | 06:01 |

| Keybuk | jbailey: yes | 09:00 |
| Keybuk | I do get aroud | 09:00 |
| jbailey | ;) | 09:00 |
| jbailey | Keybuk: I think we're going to need a solution of some sort with dpkg for "breaks" or something. | 09:00 |
| jbailey | right now if you upgrade glibc and nothing else to breezy, the old initrd-tools makes initrd's that are broken. | 09:01 |
| Keybuk | we do need Breaks | 09:01 |
| Keybuk | but we need Breaks 6-months ago, if we want it for the hoary->breezy upgrade | 09:01 |
| Keybuk | so there ain't bugger all we can do about that now | 09:01 |
| jbailey | If you update glibc without updating libterm-redline-gnu-perl and happen to use the terminal mode of debconf, any debconf app breaks. | 09:01 |
| jbailey | I suspect we'll see mass breakage if we don't have something. =( | 09:01 |
| Keybuk | (because the hoary apt has to calculate the upgrade; and the hoary app doesn't do Breaks) | 09:01 |
| jbailey | Ouch | 09:02 |
| jbailey | Is there nothing we can do? =( | 09:02 |
| Keybuk | other than doing Breaks, and then put "upgrade dpkg and apt first" in the release notes | 09:02 |
| Keybuk | which, btw, NOBODY will follow | 09:02 |
| Keybuk | nope, nothing | 09:02 |
| jbailey | Should I just close these bugs as WONTFIX ? | 09:03 |
| Keybuk | make them versioned deps in ubuntu-* | 09:03 |
| Keybuk | ask mdz what he wants to do about it | 09:03 |
| === slomo [n=slomo@p5487FEB1.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| jbailey | Well, he's the one who prompted me into asking you the first time a few months ago when it came up. | 09:03 |
| jbailey | initrd we could ignore, since we don't actually use it anymore. | 09:04 |
| === lamont looks around for kamion/elmo | ||
| jbailey | But this adds people using readline frontend into the mx, so I figured I'd ask again. | 09:04 |
| === JaneW [n=JaneW@wbs-146-157-181.telkomadsl.co.za] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| jbailey | I can put it in the release notes, and I don't know that many people will actually use readline mode on Ubuntu. | 09:05 |
| jbailey | libreadline-gnu-perl isn't even in main for us. | 09:05 |
| jbailey | I just don't know what to do with the bug reports otherwise. | 09:05 |
| === lamont unlooks | ||
| Lathiat | what does Breaks: do | 09:07 |
| Lathiat | make sure that package upgrades with it? | 09:08 |
| jbailey | AIUI, it basically makes it a temporary pre-depend. | 09:08 |
| jbailey | Or unpacks it first or something. | 09:08 |
| === highvolt2ge [n=Jono@196.25.192.240] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| desrt | will preview have 2.12.0? | 09:10 |
| Keybuk | lol | 09:11 |
| Keybuk | no | 09:11 |
| desrt | eek | 09:11 |
| Keybuk | Breaks is to Conflicts as Depends is to Pre-Depends | 09:11 |
| Keybuk | when foo Conflicts bar, even if it's just bar (<< some-version) it means that bar has to be _removed_ from the system before foo can be unpacked | 09:11 |
| Keybuk | apt might decide to remove then install the new version, but it still has to not be on the disk at some point | 09:11 |
| jbailey | Ah, hmm. | 09:12 |
| Keybuk | Breaks is less so, it simply requires that it be deconfigured -- so a normal upgrade can take place | 09:12 |
| Keybuk | foo Breaks bar (<< some-version) means bar has to be upgraded, basically | 09:12 |

| lamont | most certainly | 09:38 |
| lamont | if it was me, I'd add a package that Depends: postfix, samba, and configures them like you want. | 09:38 |
| lamont | then do a server install, and then install your pacakge. | 09:39 |
| lamont | sadly, the Release file is signed on the CD, so you also have to upgrade ubuntu-keyring to include your (newly generated and held sacred) key, and re-sign the new Releases file with that key | 09:40 |
| lamont | alternatively, you just include a new subdirectory on the CD that contains your self-contained tree with your package. | 09:41 |
| lamont | that's considerably easier, and gives a clear history of the CD | 09:41 |
| lamont | but it does require adding the key, or dealing with it being unauthenticated, etc. | 09:41 |
