mdzinfinity: the d-i build doesn't, no06:25
crimsunelmo: right, but that means that vlc will never build using the default b-d from Debian, so to make it build, we'd have to strip the ffmpeg b-d, which makes it fairly useless06:25
infinitymdz : Ahh, good.06:25
crimsunelmo: vlc b-ds on libpostproc-dev, which is in multiverse06:25
elmocrimsun: for values of fairly useless as in "as useful as it is in Debian" ?06:26

elmoAmaranth: that's not true06:29
elmothere are people working on reverse engineering the driver06:29
crimsunlibpostproc-dev is most problematic, because without it, vlc will not build with ffmpeg support without much hacking (e.g., including ffmpeg snapshot in diff.gz, which is much ugliness)06:29
elmocrimsun: what IS libpostproc-dev?06:29
elmoand why does it need to be in multiverse?06:30
mdzinfinity: I believe Kamion uploaded d-i before the kernel was built; so perhaps it dep-waited on it and built?06:30
elmomdz: as I said, 17's in the archive06:30
infinitypostproc is a postprocessing library, I see no reason why it would need to be in multiverse.06:31

infinityI could see how one of it's deps (avcodec) could need to be in multiverse, except that it's not.06:31
infinityOh, wait, it is now.06:31
mdzanyone know if Kamion did install CD builds?06:31
infinityI was looking at the wrong apt-cache stanza.06:32
mdzI dunno an easy way to check the version of d-i on the CDs06:32
infinityOr, no it's not.  I just can't read.06:32
infinityRight, so postproc (multiverse) doesn't appear to need to be in multiverse, as it's only dep (avcodec) is in universe...06:32
infinityAnd postproc itself shouldn't contain any terribly iffy code.06:32
crimsunand libpostproc's license is GPL06:32

infinityHrm.  Then it shouldn't be happening at all.08:14
infinityIf pmi depends on acpi-support and there is no acpi-support for sparc, then it shouldn't get included, afaik.08:14
infinityOr... It's a germinate bug.  Hrm.08:15
infinityOr a misfeature.08:15
fabbionethis is the last glitch to make sparc-desktop installable08:15
infinityYeah, hppa will have the same problem.08:16
fabbionei am checking how the update algos work08:16
infinityAs will powerpc, which is an actual release arch.08:16
fabbioneperhaps in the first place it is added automatically and you need to remove it manually after08:17
infinity<shrug>, I can just make pmi arch-dependant in the seeds, that will fix it.08:17
fabbionedesktop/sparc: Skipping package acpi-support (unavailable)08:17

fabbioneit gets readded automatically08:18
pittiinfinity: and the orig was uploaded to breezy first08:18
infinitypitti : The orig in breezy is for a different package.08:18
infinitypitti : So, if he did hoary with -sa, and warty without -sa (which would be correct), hoary needs to be accepted before warty can build.08:18
infinityfabbione : yeah, I'll just make it arch-specific in the seeds and refresh.08:19
pittiinfinity: ouch, why a different one? that's stupid...08:19

fabbioneinfinity: ok thanks08:19
infinityfabbione : yeah, it affects everything !i386/amd64, so it's not just an "SCC port" problem. :)08:19
fabbionefrom a first shot this seems to be the only glitch left08:19
infinitypitti : Uhm.  Huh?08:20
pittiinfinity: indeed there is an orig.tar.gz in the queue - that means Diziet accidentialyl uploaded with -sa for hoary?08:20
fabbioneinfinity: oh well :)08:20
infinitypitti : breezy ships "firefox", not "mozilla-firefox"08:20
infinitypitti : Hence -sa is required for hoary.08:20
pittiinfinity: ah, I see - mozilla-firefox vs. firefix08:20
fabbionelol.. firefix :)08:20
infinityIf only.08:20
pittiinfinity: bah, that's ugly - we need to test both debs, and we want to release them at the same time08:20
pittiinfinity: any workaround?08:21
infinitypitti : Then do manual builds... Using the upload queue as a testbed is pretty insane.08:21
infinitypitti : I mean, what if we find out they're buggy?... New uploads with new version numbers to fix them?.. Ugh.08:21
pittiinfinity: they should not be buggy, the question was more like if they built at all, and Ian wanted a clean build08:22
pittiinfinity: anyway, so I can't release them all together, I suppose08:22
infinityClean builds are easy enough to accomplish.08:22
infinityToss me the warty sources, and I'll do a clean chroot build here.08:22
pittiinfinity: I told him to use local builds, but he was sure that they work08:22

DizietThis ffox mouse scroll bug seems very odd.  It keeps coming and going.  Of course I don't see it because I have no scroll wheel mice.04:28
infinityWhich bug?... Where scrolling works until you get halfway down the page, then suddenly stops working, then if you refocus the page, it may or may not start working again?04:29
DizietI don't know if it's one bug or several.  The bugzilla is full of intermittent apparently-hard-to-reproduce bugs where the scroll wheel stops working.04:30
infinityDiziet : And nah, I'll test it on Monday, or whenever I'm back to work.  If I still hate it, I'll yell at you directly, or propose patches. :)04:30
MithrandirDiziet: you might want to buy one, then?04:30
ograDiziet, note that scrolling works only in focused frames on frame sites04:30
DizietSure.  If it still looks wrong, run the offending /etc/init.d by hand from within script(1) and put that in with the bug report.04:30
Dizietmith: I suppose I might :-/.04:30
Dizietogra: Sure, I notice that myself with pageup and pagedown.04:31
ograyup04:31
ograso probably the focus changes somehow...04:31
DizietProbably the site's fault.  They're awful for having lots of crap which steals the focus.04:32
sivangpitti: ok, it seems that the fds are opened in AcceptClient() defined in client.c , am I on the right spot? (re: cupsd)04:32
DizietBut it would be nice to feel confident and close the bugs.04:32
pittisivang: you need to watch out for the network socket that is closed/reopened after sighup, not the select() calls04:33
infinityNo, it's not about frames or the site being at fault.04:35
infinityBuild an arbitrarily massive html file (or, say, browse the build logs at buildd.debian.org, again, pick a big one), start scrolling down.  It'll just stop scrolling at some point.04:36
=== Diziet 's disk finishes grinding.
infinityRefocussing will not always fix it, only sometimes.  Reloading the page will always fix it.04:36
Dizietpitti, that ffox is now in the queue.04:36
pittiDiziet: thanks04:36
infinityIt's a longstanding fifrefox bug, and not one I've ever bothered to complain about, but there you have it.04:37
jbaileyYagisan: Awesome, thanks04:37
infinityAnd it's a firefox+GTK bug (though, that's pretty obvious, as I don't think scrolling happens at any other level of the code), since firefox+win32 and other GUI toolkits don't have the problem.04:37
jcohen85anyone know if the changes in 1.0.7 are in 1.5 beta1?04:38

mdkethesaltydog, you can remove usplash by uninstalling it or by removing the word "splash" from the boot options05:02
ograthesaltydog, you rewrite usplash, fix some hundrets of vga bioses to support more than vga16fb ? 05:02
thesaltydoginfinity, that's why I don't want usplash..05:02

ograinfinity, he asks for BOTH :)05:03
thesaltydoginfinity, ok.. Now the REAL question: from this morning, after update to kernel -9, it doesn't work anymore. I have only a black screen.05:03
DizietIf something is a directory in one package but a symlink (to a directory) in another, whether you get the link or the directory depends on the order of installation.05:03
thesaltydogogra, I don't have the booting sequence on screen with vga=791 from today.05:03
infinityDiziet : Yes, that's known.  But in no case should it cause a CONFLICT...05:03
infinityDiziet : Which is the bug being reported.05:03

infinityogra : Trying to forcefully CHANGE a directory to a link requires postinst hackery, but shipping a link (that may or many not match up with a directory) is supposed to work.05:11
ograinfinity, not if you probably would overwrite it... then i'd put it in postinst in at least one of the packages05:11
DizietCan I have the bug number, package names and versions, and stuff like that ?05:11
jbaileysladen: No.05:11
infinityDiziet : No, only one package contains a link, AFAIK.05:11
infinityDiziet : #1613305:11
sladenjbailey: so, given that retorical question, should it?05:11
jbaileysladen: Sure.  A bit late in breezy's cycle for it, though.05:12
jbaileysladen: The pieces are all there to do it.05:12
infinityDiziet : x-common contains a link.  The rest of the packages with that directory almost certainly have it as a directory. On disk on mdke's system, it's already a link from a previous x-common installation.05:12
DizietWhat version of xfonts-base is installed ?05:12
infinityDiziet : There's sure to be something broken in some attempt at symlink migration in the maintainer scripts (which can and should be fixed), but I'm more curious about dpkg's behavior in this case.05:12
infinityDiziet : mdke said it was 6.8.2.1-305:13
mdkedo you want a login to this system?05:13
mdkeah actually, I can't help :/ the office firewall will get in the way05:14
Diziet6.8.2.1-3 isn't in pool any more.05:14
mdkeit is latest breezy :/05:14
DizietOh, hold on, it's changed place in pool.05:14
infinityYeah. :)05:14
Kamionogra: IME it's more reliable to ship the .debs the way you want the system to end up (i.e. ship the link) and clean up the old directory in the preinst.05:15
=== thesaltydog [n=fabio@host48-222.pool8255.interbusiness.it] has joined #ubuntu-devel
ograKamion, but if i have another package that needs the link that i could install separately, i'd do the postinst solution to avoid a clash if they are both installed...05:16
DizietWhen xfonts-base was installed, /usr/lib/X11/fonts was just a directory.05:16
DizietI assume.05:16
Kamionogra: *shrug* I can only speak from my experience of what actually works05:16
DizietHow did it come to be a symlink ?05:16
DizietOh, hold on, I think I see what's happening.05:17
DizietIt notices that usr/lib/X11/fonts is a in xfonts-base, so it asks itself, well, what kind of thing is it in xfonts-base ?  It lstats it and finds it's a symlink.  So it then assumes that xfonts-base must have had it as a symlink.05:18
DizietBut it's processing x-common, which contains a symlink.  So that's two symlinks, a conflict.05:19
infinityOh, argh.05:19
DizietCan you grep usr/lib/X11/fonts /var/lib/dpkg/info/x-common.list ?05:19
Dizietand .../xfonts-base.list ?05:19
DizietHas something recently changed in the organisation of these X packages ?05:20

mdkethis morning there was that "remove all things X", then later this afternoon, this problem05:22
infinityDiziet : Anyhow, yes, in the .list, both claim to own that file on my system.  But, on my system, it works fine because it's a directory.05:22
infinitymdke : Oh, did you end up removing X stuff, rather than just waiting for fixed packages?05:22

Dizietinf: That sounds like a plausible bet.05:23
infinityDiziet : Yet already refuted by mdke. :)05:24
ograinfinity, it also affects upgrades that didnt suffer from the removal breakage05:24
DizietOn my breezy test system (last dist-upgrade a day or two ago) it's a link.05:24
ograi had some people mention it in #edubuntu05:24
thesaltydogogra, this is my /proc/cmdline root=/dev/hdb6 ro vga=791 , and during boot the screen is completely black... until gdm starts.05:24
infinityDiziet : So, if it's a link on your system, dpkg should have a hissy if you apt-get --reinstall install x-common...05:24

ograthesaltydog, i guess removing usplash and running dpkg-reconfigure for your kernel image should help05:25
DizietOh dear, this is quite bad really.05:25
infinityIt really is non-obvious behavior.05:25
Diziet1.06 does it too.05:25
infinityWe can easily work around it in the packages, but dpkg still seems wrong to me.05:25
Diziet`non-obvious'> ITYM `wrong'.05:26
thesaltydogogra, by "removing" are you meaning apt-get remove?05:26
ograyup05:26
thesaltydogmmh.. let's try05:26
DizietI think for now dpkg should not mind if a package steals a symlink to a directory by replacing it with another symlink to the same directory.05:27
mdkethesaltydog, also perhaps filing a major bug against usplash if that is the cause05:27
ograthesaltydog, then regenerate your initrd by running dpkg-reconfigure linux-image-`uname -r`05:27
thesaltydogmdke I don't believe usplash is guilty.. maybe kernel -905:27
DizietI'm going to have to leave early today, in only a few minutes.  I'll think about this problem and propose a fix, perhaps tomorrow.05:27
mdkethesaltydog, you'll find out if you remove it05:27
ograneither is guilty...05:27
mdkeogra, something is...05:27
thesaltydogogra, removing usplash will remove ubuntu-desktop, don't like..05:28
DizietI think this will be OK if we fix dpkg.  'cos the fixed dpkg and the existing x-common will be installed at the same time, and then the user will never see the bug (unless they've been testing breezy for us, of course).05:28
mdkethesaltydog, just remove it to test whether usplash is causing the problem, then put it back05:28
ogramdke, its not usplash...05:28
infinityDiziet : Right, and for dist-upgrades, apt always configures dpkg (well, its dependencies, then dpkg) first.05:28
mdkeogra, it's you that recommended he remove it, not me :p05:28
DizietIt's not a question of configure, it's a question of execute.05:28
thesaltydogmdke, it happened this morning after the kernel update05:28
ograyou cant run higher resolutions with vga16fb05:28
DizietAs in, if you're executing the new dpkg it will work.05:29
=== Yvonne [n=justme@cn-sdm-cr02-1437.dial.kabelfoon.nl] has joined #ubuntu-devel

DizietShall I reassign 16133 to me ?05:29
infinityDiziet : s/configure/unpack/05:29
ogramdke, yes, but only because thesaltydog wants a non default setup05:29
DizietDoes it arrange to invoke it again after unpacking the new one ?05:29
thesaltydogogra, let's speak about freedom in a free world..05:29
ogramdke, afaik the splash line is for grub...05:29
infinityDiziet : Yes, it does multiple dpkg runs.05:29
ogramdke, which has nothing to do with usplash05:30
infinityDiziet : So it will do dpkg -i (dpkg deps), dpkg -i (dpkg), dpkg -i (everything else), for instance.05:30
mdkeogra, but without splash in the kernel options, usplash doesn't start05:30

mdkethanks Diziet 05:30
ograhmm, does that mean we wont have a colony then ? 05:31
mvothesaltydog: not sure if that was already mentinoed, but can't you just remove the "splash" from your grub config?05:31
ograi think a broken xorg-common is a quite serious blocker for that05:31
Kamionogra: it's fine on fresh installs, no?05:32
DizietI think you only see this if you upgrade it.05:32
thesaltydogmvo, my /proc/cmdline is this: root=/dev/hdb6 ro vga=79105:32
Dizietk: Right.05:32
infinityogra : It'll be fine on fresh installs, because x-common will always be installed first.05:32
ograKamion, no idea, i only had users that upgraded from a daily from this week...05:32
infinity(In fact, a mess of stuff pre-depends on x-common, rather anally)05:32
mvothesaltydog: and you get a splash with that?05:32
thesaltydogmvo, no, I get a black screen... No boot sequence displayed, until gdm05:33
infinityOTOH, that means that upgrades AFTER a fresh install will be bitten by this bug every time, cause it will be a link for sure.05:33
ogramvo, isnt the "splash" in grub not for the grub splash image ? 05:33
infinitySo, we can't upload a new x-common until the dpkg bug is fixed. :)05:33

Keybukit would only do that if xscreensaver Conflict/Replace gnome-screensaver, and gnome-screensaver Conflict/Replace xscreensaver06:20
seb128again, people maybe want to use one for GNOME and the other for KDE on the same box06:21
Keybukbut then that would prevent us changing to gnome-screensaver for dapper06:21
ograseb128, yes06:21
seb128Suse does that by default06:21
ograseb128, that was the intention of that cnflicts06:21
ograregardless if you think thats right, it was its intention 06:21
seb128which is plainly wrong06:21
seb128there is no reason to force that, both can be installed and used on the same box06:22
ogramight be06:22
seb128sure both can't be used by the same user06:22
ograthey can, just not in the same session on the same display06:22
seb128but some box have several users06:22
seb128right06:22
seb128so no reason to force to have only 1 installed06:22
Keybukand this, folks, is why we should be more careful about adding dependencies to ubuntu-desktop06:23
Keybuk'cause when we change our minds (*cough*polypaudio*cough*howl*cough*) later, it's bloody hard to get them off the user's system agai06:23

ogradont blame u-d for my errors in gss06:25
Keybukthe conflict is there to try and get around the fact that we've installed gnome-screensaver on some boxes and now installed xscreensaver as well, no?06:25
ograKeybuk, nope06:25
Keybukso if seb128 claims it all works fine (and it seems to here too), then why's it there?06:26
ograKeybuk, the conflict was there because they clash in gnome desktop and have two times the same menu entry06:26

KeybukI was worrying for your health when you opened ubuntu-bugs07:29
KeybukHOW MANY NEW MAILS? *cry*07:30
mdzKeybuk: unix.ko is loaded if you use unix sockets.  mousedev, being the interface to mice in the input layer, makes sense to load if an input driver for a MOUSE is loaded07:30
jdubmdz: do you have any strong opinions on ubuntu-devel/forum mirroring?07:30
Amaranthkill it!07:30
Keybukit's not the interface to mice, it's a multiplexer that fakes a ps/2 mouse for any connected mouse07:30
mdzKeybuk: how is it that a permissions issue caused that HTTP error?07:31
Keybukyou can get to a mouse through /dev/input/mouse0 etc. without loading it07:31
mdzjdub: mirroring?07:31
jdubmdz: mirroring the list on the forum07:31
Keybukmdz: I've no idea, Bugzilla crap I guess.  debzilla uses the multi-change interface, which needs editbugs permissions, and it seems to spit the "YOU CAN'T DO THAT" before it spat the http header07:31
mdzKeybuk: and you can use /dev/kmem to access sysctl values07:31
Amaranthjdub: make it die, all we get is a lot of noise from people saying "me too" and people responding to spam07:32
Keybukmdz: I'm entirely agreeing with you, btw; I'm just giving the reasons I've been told why it can't be either a dependency or compiled in <g>07:32
mdzjdub: I thought it was supposed to be read-only, but clearly it isn't07:32
infinityjdub : If they made it a read-only copy of the list, I'd be fine with it.07:32
jdubmdz: would you prefer a policy change in that regard? :)07:32
infinityjdub : gating the forums back to the list is just horrible.07:32
mdzjdub: I'm wary of discriminating based on user interface07:32

BenCif the installer could not detect storage and ethernet modules automatically, and they were selected manually, shouldn't the installer add those to initramfs modules list to force them being included?07:36
Kamionmdz: moderation offers a number of ways to solve that, such as moderators contacting people to explain what's expected of them07:36
Kamionwhich is often friendlier than 100 people flaming them on the list because they did something wrong that they didn't know about07:36

Keybukmdz: now you're doing it too, "I've been using Ubuntu since 1993" :p07:37
BenCwell, it only affected a sparc64 install, so it's not terribly important07:37
mdzKamion: are you agreeing that  moderation is the solution?  I assumed 'no' was a typo for 'so'07:37

Kamionor at least *a* valid solution07:38
KamionI haven't heard other ways to get the noise down yet07:38
jdubmdz: atm, i'm setting up team for moderation, which will help, but that doesn't make it much less expensive07:39
Kamionmdz: that explains your earlier comment then, which I took for precisely the reverse of its actual meaning07:39
jdubit just distributes the load07:39
mdzKamion: it's also occurred to me that your 'n' and 's' are not adjacent07:39
mdzunless you've switched to dvorak07:40
Kamionmdz: I have not :-)07:40
jdubmdz, Kamion: are you actually suggesting we whitelist participants (rather than all subscribers)? "moderation" doesn't describe a solution07:40
mdzjdub: that's not a bad idea07:40
jdubok then, sorry, i disagree. it's a terrible idea07:40
Kamionexact forms of whitelisting are an implementation detail; I've seen moderation done all sorts of ways07:41
Kamionup to and including weird voting systems07:41
jdubright, but that's the significant part of the solution07:42
jdubnot "let's moderate!"07:42

hubHogra: have we met?09:16

ogra\sh, since universe will be locked down with the distro at release, we should have a possibility to upgrade and sbmit security fixes, but i tink that should somehow be meixed with backports in case of universe09:16

Kamionoh, right, hmm11:12
Kamionthat's probably a packaging bug; if it's arch: all, it should really be buildable on any architecture11:12
Kamionis there any actual reason for it to be arch: all? does anything non-arch:powerpc depend on it?11:13
slomoit's arch all because it only contains arch independend files11:13
slomobut that's the only reason11:13
Kamionhmm, I think the answer is to arrange for the binary-indep target not to depend on the build target11:14
Kamionsince the build target is arch-dep11:14
slomohmm11:15
slomosounds to complicated imho... can i just set it to arch powerpc?11:15
Kamionthere's an optional build-indep target defined in case binary-indep wants to do any build-like things11:15
Kamionit's not complicated11:15
Kamionit's correct11:15

=== spstarr_work [n=spstarr@192.219.104.10] has left #ubuntu-devel []
Kamionso setting it to arch: powerpc is an acceptable workaround if you can't do that - but in that case please ask the Debian maintainer to sort it out properly11:17
=== Keybuk wishes there were a rsync --go-faster
Keybukis sad when you only have 10Mbps wired on your desktop, but 54Mbps wireless on your laptop; so copying between the two takes too long <g>11:19
slomoKamion: sure, i'll send him a mail... it should be too complicated to fix it the right way... configure will fail, so we have no makefiles... and even when we have makefiles it will fail compiling so we would have to install all stuff by hand11:19

Kamionhoorah11:50
Keybukmy amd64 doesn't come for a few more weeks, and don't yet have ppc hardware, so that's all I can test <g>11:50
Kamioninstall/amd64 and install/i386 are both looking plausible so far11:50
Kamionpearpc? ;)11:50
Kamion(bloody slow, mind)11:50
Kamionand I confess to not having tried an installation in it ...11:51
KeybukI might actually try and find a cheap ppc on ebay or something at some point11:51
Keybukprobably after UBZ11:51
Keybukjust for testing shit on11:51
Kamionhaving multiple architectures is nice11:54
Kamionthough it did make me replace the last compiled binary from ~/bin with a perl script in sheer annoyance11:54
Kamionnever worked out why there's no standard version of that script in coreutils - it's a thing that works a bit like sed -i or perl -i to let you modify a file in-place, but you can use it at the end of a longer pipeline whose commands don't have to support in-place editing like that11:56
Keybukexplain?11:56
Kamionso you do "sed 's/foo/bar/g' < foo | tr -s ' ' | cut -d: -f2 | sponge foo"11:56
Keybukheh11:56
Kamionif you just did "sed 's/foo/bar/g' < foo | tr -s ' ' | cut -d: -f2 > foo", then the output redirection to foo would happen and truncate the file before the first command in the pipeline had a chance to read from it11:57
Keybukindeed11:57
Kamionso sponge sucks up all its input, *then* opens the file you give it and squeezes it all out11:57
