Keybukand it does implicit pipes if you want it to12:02
Kamionadverbio is an interesting idea for this sort of thing too, which helps when you're using sudo12:02

Kamionfrustratingly, I can't quite tell, and jbailey does not seem to be around12:13
mvoKamion: would a synaptic upload now hurt? or should I wait until tomorrow?12:14
KamionI'm starting a new build now just in case12:14
Kamionmvo: please don't12:14
Kamiontomorrow12:14
Kamionthe topic has not changed12:14

=== mvo is impatient sometimes
KamionI'm sorry to keep everybody waiting for uploads, but I'm fourteen hours into an extremely long day here12:14
Kamionand I do not want it to continue into tomorrow12:15
mvosure, no problem. I didn't wanted to sound pushy or something12:16

BurgundaviaKamion, does apt have a way to build something but avoid pushing it the public archives before another package builds? (Ie, with mozilla/epiphany and linux/l-r-m)01:02
BurgundaviaKamion, that would allow seemless upgrades01:02
Kamionthat's got zero to do with apt01:02
Burgundaviaok01:02
Burgundaviais that possible?01:03
Burgundaviais it worth the effor developing>01:03
Burgundavia?01:03
Kamionnot without the equivalent of Debian testing, which we've explicitly decided not to use01:03
Kamion(for various reasons)01:03
Kamionit's not really worth the effort because it only affects development releases01:03
Burgundaviamy thought was just for a select few packages01:04
Kamions/releases/trees/01:04
Burgundaviaand I am talking a matter of hours01:04
Kamionspecial-purpose hacks are usually even less worth it01:04
Kamionanyway, sorry, I'm extremely busy01:04
BurgundaviaKamion, ok, just a thought01:04
=== el_toro [n=jonah@207-224-75-54.mpls.qwest.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel
Kamionit also doesn't work for linux/l-r-m because l-r-m requires linux to be in the archive first before you can build it01:06
Kamionand I believe the same goes for mozilla/epiphany01:06
Burgundaviaugh01:07
Kamionthe buildds don't build from anything private, just the public archive01:07
Kamionwhich is good, 'cos you can test things properly before uploading01:07

ivoksanyone? i have one suggestion for libdvdread301:15
slomoKamion: can you add a comment to the bugreport after further testing?01:16
slomoivoks: what suggestion?01:16
ivoksslomo: k3b searches for libdvdcss.so01:16
Kamionslomo: not tonight, but yes I will later01:16
Kamionslomo: works fine with ext3, fyi01:16
ivoksslomo: and install-css.sh provides libdvdcss.so01:16
ograivoks, its illegal01:16
ivoksslomo: so, links should be created in that script01:16
ivoksillegal?01:16
slomoKamion: ok, i'll talk to jbailey and BenC tomorrow about it... maybe we get this fixed somehow for breezy :/01:16
ograyup01:17
slomoivoks: libdvdcss is nothing for us ;)01:17
ivoksogra: to create link?01:17
ivoksslomo: i know, but...01:17
slomoivoks: what link do you want to create?01:17
ivokswe provide that script01:17
ivoksslomo: ln -s /usr/lib/libdvdcss.so. /usr/lib/libdvdcss.so.201:17
ivoksone . too many :)01:17
slomoivoks: a link to a non-existing file?01:18
ivoksslomo: read from begnining01:18
ivokswe provide install-css.sh01:18
ograwhere do you get /usr/lib/libdvdcss.so.2 ?01:18
ivoks /usr/share/doc/libdvdread3/examples/install-css.sh01:18
ivoksthere01:18
slomoivoks: yes... and...? ;) we don't provide the library itself01:18
ivoksthat's main package01:18
ivoksslomo: but we provided installer for it01:19
slomoivoks: but i would fix k3b or whatevery tries to read libdvdcss.so to look for libdvdcss.so.301:19
slomoivoks: libdvdcss.so.2 even01:19
ivoksright :)01:19
slomoivoks: or change the script to make a link... but everything else is braindead ;)01:19
ivoksthat's what i'm talking about01:20
ivoksjust change script01:20
ivoksnot lib01:20
slomook... but better do the other fix01:20
KeybukKamion: tsk, tsk; leaving ,,undo-1 files in source packages01:20
slomolet whatever wants to read libdvdcss.so to look for libdvdcss.so.201:20
KamionKeybuk: which?01:20
ivoksslomo: or that :)01:21
ivoksslomo: but first one was easier :)01:21
KeybukKamion: cdrom-detect01:21
slomoivoks: is the better solution imho... .so files should only be in -dev packages01:21
KamionKeybuk: oops; willfix later01:21
ivoksslomo: whatever...01:21
ivoks:)01:21
KeybukKamion: I'll do it, if I can understand these bugs mdz has given me01:21
slomoivoks: but while you're at it... tell the libdvdcss hoster to put 1.2.9 packages on his webspace and change the script to use these ;)01:22
ivoksslomo: i noticed only k3b requesting libdvdcss.so01:22
ivoksslomo: what's libdvdcss? :>01:23
ograi think we should rip out that script completely if it silently installs illegal software on your system01:23
slomoivoks: are you sure it isn't loaded in libdvdread?01:23
slomoogra: it warns about it and must be called by the user01:23
slomoivoks: libdvdread uses libdvdcss when it is installed... so i suspect the problem there01:24
ivoksdecss isn't illegale everywhere01:24
ograok, if it warns and explicitly says that you go in jail in the US and various other countries, then its fine01:24
ograivoks, i only know norway...01:24
ograits illegal in most other countries...01:24
ivoksslomo: k3b said it misses libdvdcss01:24
ivoksogra: one is enough, isn't it?01:25
slomoivoks: i looked at libdvdread and it opens libdvdcss.so.2... so fix k3b ;)01:25
ograivoks, not really, i'd rip out that script01:25
slomoogra: what about cuba? ;)01:25
ivoksogra: no problem, fine with me01:25
ograyes, probably cuba :)01:26
mjg59Wow. My cheap random USB wireless thing supports being an access point01:26
mjg59(Under Windows, at least)01:26
ograivoks, its a question if we want to bring users in suspectable legal situations...01:26
Keybuk... I guess now is a good time to learn debconf and d-i :p01:26
Keybukand here was me being proud of being one of the last people in the world to learn debconf01:26
ivoksogra: i understand, i don't object01:27
ivoksogra: i just noticed that we have it and it doesn't work ok in one program01:27
slomoogra: iirc it is also written in the wiki... but it's written there to use marillat's packages which are newer01:27
ivoksso, we should fix it or remove it01:27
ograyup01:27
slomoivoks: just fix k3b... and write a mail at -devel whether the script should be removed ;)01:28

ivoksmaybe we should come to a solution without ringing with this...01:29
ivoksogra: yes, but less people watch it01:29
ograwrite a mail01:29
ivoksok01:30
ogralets have it discussed to get a solution01:30
ograthe script itself isnt illegal as you said, so we can discuss it as public as we want...01:31
KamionKeybuk: if you're going to hack cdrom-detect, please branch from colin.watson@canonical.com--2005/cdrom-detect--ubuntu--0 so that I can merge it later01:32
KeybukI'm not sure I understand how it works enough to hack it :-/01:33
KamionKeybuk: are many of the alleged cdrom-detect bugs actually cdrom-detect bugs, though? I thought most of them were kernel bugs01:33
KamionI don't understand it all that well01:33

slomook, good night everybody :)01:43
ogranight01:43
Keybukhmm, well, it looks like it just loads all the modules and hopes that /dev/cdroms turns up01:44
Keybukugh @ how devfs specific that is01:44
Kamionyes, cdrom-detect is definitely a repository of devfs assumptions01:46
Kamiondoesn't it call udevstart though (perhaps via hw-detect)?01:46
Kamionhw-detect calls udevstart as the last thing it does, pretty much01:46
Kamionanyway, bored now; /me starts the release process01:48

infinitysivang : Given their shiny newness, more testing of those packages is welcome.08:30

infinityNote that you may want to reboot after install the new lrm stuff, especially if the other 'nvidia' module in the base lrm package wsas alrady loaded (it's notorious for not really unloading terribly well)08:34

infinityajmitch : Oh, they may have kept the MX in the supported list.  I think they dropped support based on age, not technology.08:40
sivangyep, horray for them 08:40
infinityajmitch : So, despite the gf2gts being "better", it's older than lots of gf2mx boards, so it goes first.08:40

sivanginfinity: hmm, it appears they also have it shipped with Intel Extreme Graphics adaptors - what do you think about those?08:46
infinityWith the open source driver, I'm reasonably satisfied, but the lack of PCIe acceleration does make tihngs a bit jerky at times.08:46
sivanginfinity: oh that's good. They should have done that from start, like nvidia08:46
infinityThe Intel stuff should work fine, but if you intend to plug in an external mouse and get your Quake on, forget it.  If you want occasioanl 3D, go with the ATI offering.08:47
sivanginfinity: in specific functionality where you experience jerky performance?08:47

infinityBut the X300 (which you find in the T43) is happy.08:53
infinitysivang : Kay, then I recommend just letting the installer guess it all for you, it'll pick just fine, and the T43 should be happoy out of the box right now.  After buying a T43, that became a personal release goal. :)08:53

infinitysivang : Oh, a tip, when you spec it, buy it with as little RAM as you possibly can, and then order 2GB of RAM from somewhere else.  IBM's RAM prices are insanely marked up.08:55
infinitysivang : But the 2GB of RAM is very welcome, when you get it cheap. :)08:56

infinityOh, wait, no, I see it.09:25
infinityYeah, trace through usb.agent, near the bottom.09:25
infinityYou snippet isn't called to remove it, a specific "REMOVER" is called for your device.09:25
infinitySo when you create the device, you need to also create its remove script in /var/run/usb09:26
infinitySee the last 100 lines or so of usb.agent.09:26

sivanginfinity: I guessed so, just couldn't find it. When I experiment with replacing /sbin/udevsend from /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug , I saw all events, and was wondering..thanks!09:27

davydI have an interesting bug, and no idea where to look to fix it09:59
davydusing the TV out on my video card usplash comes up black and white09:59
davydI _suspect_ it is because it's being outputted in NTSC10:00
davydX is fine because I specified a default in X10:00
davydanyone have any thoughts?10:00
infinitydavyd : Sure, that early in the boot process, TV out format will be almost completely handled/determined by BIOS settings...10:02
davydinfinity: that's what I would expect too10:02
davydsince the motherboard logo also has that NTSC look to it10:03
infinitydavyd : vga16fb certainly has no concept of output display, it just writes to the video car dand hopes.10:03
infinitydavyd : So, if the BIOS has no way to change the TVout mode, you're pretty muhc out of luck.10:03
davydinfinity: mmm, I was hoping at least that I might be able to fix usplash10:03
davydis there any easy way to change fb driver?10:03
infinityYou'd have to write a LOT of code. Like I said, vga16fb has no concept of different output device types, and probably shouldn't.10:04
infinityIf the card can't get it right on POST, there's not much we can really do.10:04
davydI was wondering if the nvidia fb driver (rivafb?) might have some concept10:05
infinityIt might, but you can't use usplash with anything other than vga16fb.10:05
davydhow come?10:05
davydI thought they simply chose that as a lowest common denominator10:05
infinityWlel, okay, you could hack your own local copy of usplash that may work with another fb driver (but no guarantees there), but is that effort worth it just to get a prettier usplash on your system, and yours alone? :)10:06
davydthat's why I was wondering how hard it would be10:07
davydie. if there was a config option you could tweak it with10:07
infinityWell, if rivafb both a) supports your TV out, and b) supports the features usplash needs, it would be easy to hack it locally.10:07
=== davyd nods
infinityIf either isn't true, you're still screwed, and stuck doing a bunch of devel work. :)10:08
davydto be honest, I would actually be surprised if you can't write something into the cards nvram to solve this issue10:09
infinityfind /usr/share/initramfs-tools/ -name usplash10:09
infinityHack there.  :)  And you would also probably need to make sure rivafb ends up on your initramfs, if it isn't already.10:10
infinitySome cards have a jumper (or, two pade where a jumper should be soldered on but isn't) that can switch between defaulting to PAL or NTSC.10:12
infinitys/pade/pads/10:12
=== sivang goes to read some more about sockets and signals in his lad book. be back later
infinityIt's also defaulted in the video card BIOS itself, which is probably a simple binary patch hack ti fix, if you can't download a PAL BIOS to flash to it.10:12
davydmmm, I'll go and find the manual10:13
davydinteresting, the last card didn't have this issue10:13
davydbut that is a decade old10:13
infinityThere are 1001 sites out there with hacked up nvidia BIOSes, if you're feeling brave.10:13
davydperhaps I should just buy a new TV ;)10:13
\shhmm...didn't we have established a process for breezy packages backported to hoary? 10:13
infinityHacked for different default clock speeds, etc, but I'm sure people have hacked the PAL/NTSC defaults too.10:13
bob2\sh: you throw it at a buildd, and have it uploaded without checking if it works or not, afaict10:16
infinityExcept for the part where youd don't do that at all.10:18

\shbob2: I'm only asking because all world is using this ubuntu-backports.mirrormax.net repos and they're fcked with those stupid mozilla-firefox packages10:18

DizietAh, hello Keybuk.  Are you really there ?  I'm just having a go at looking into 16133, the x-common file conflict.05:27
Keybukyup, I'm here05:27
Keybukwhat was the issue there?  file conflict on a directory?05:28
DizietWere you around for the discussion yesterday ?05:28
DizietYes.05:28
Keybukno, but I did take a brief look at it myself05:28
DizietA contains a directory /foo.05:28
DizietThat is, xfonts-base contains /usr/lib/wossname/fonts05:28
=== qingl [n=qingl@222.51.176.28] has joined #ubuntu-devel
DizietBut somehow /usr/lib/wossname/fonts has been made a symlink.  So /foo -> /bar.  This is fine.05:29
KeybukI _think_ I fixed that in 1.13.1105:29
Yagisanjbailey: Test installs of Breezy Colony 5 in vmware 5 with both buslogic and lsilogic scsi work fine. It seems the bug is fixed05:29
DizietNow if you install B which contains /foo -> /bar (x-common in this case), dpkg looks at /foo and says `it's a symlink'05:29
DizietBut it's trying to install a symlink.05:30
DizietSo that's two symlinks, a conflict.05:30
Keybukoh, right05:30
Keybukuser-replaced-symlink-to-directory conflicting with a real symlink?05:30
DizietI think that the right answer is if on the filesystem /foo -> /bar and /foo.new -> /bar2 where /bar2 and /bar are the same directory according to stat, it should be OK and treat it as a directory.05:31
Dizietkeybuk: I think so.05:31
DizietWhere `user' = maintainer script.05:31
DizietOh, hold on, looking at the code I seem to be wrong.05:32
DizietAnyway, I'll look at it now for a bit and see whether my hunch was right.05:33
Keybukthe odd thing is, if dpkg thinks it's a directory being overwritten by a non-directory, you get a different error05:35
Keybukdpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/x-common_1.08_all.deb (--unpack):05:35
Keybuktrying to overwrite `/usr/lib/X11/fonts', which is also in package xfonts-base05:35
Keybuksuggests it doesn't think "/usr/lib/X11/fonts" is a directory or symlink-to-directory05:35
KeybukI'd expect to see, instead05:35
Keybuktrying to overwrite directory `/usr/lib/X11/fonts' in package xfonts-base with nondirectory05:36
Diziet`existingdirectory' is 0.05:36
DizietSee archives.c near line 426.05:36
Keybukshould it be 0?05:38
DizietNo, I think it should be `.05:38
Diziet1.05:38
wasabigreat. mysqld is now segfaulting for me =(05:38
DizietIt uses lstat, not stat.05:38
Keybukshould that if statement under case SymbolicLink be doing a stat() call itself (like the Directory one) rather than re-using the lstat() value05:38
DizietI think it should, yes.  I'm just writing code to do that now.05:40
DizietIt has to stat the putative link target, too.05:40
KeybukI think just copying the lower if should do the trick, no?05:42
=== dholbach [i=foobar@i577B1DDF.versanet.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel

dholbachhello05:44

mjg59People are /msging me, and I can't reply05:59

ogra\sh, yes, but thats a older ff backport, its about 2 months old06:02
ograbut i thought they wanted to shut down the normal backports...06:02
\shogra: doesn't matter...it's a main package after all, and they never check the functionality of updates for their packages06:02
\shogra: our backports are hoary-extras, right? and not ubuntu-backports.mirrormax.net06:03
ogra\sh, poke Mez about it :)06:03
ogranope, hoary-extras are things like freenx06:03
\shogra: sorry..but Mez can't help....I'll get my hands on jdong 06:03
DizietOnce you've got A containing /foo/wombat and B containing /foo -> /bar on your system, dpkg has forgotten which of A and B had a directory /foo and which the symlink.  So if you now reinstall B' /foo -> /bar2 then it's probably broken anyway.06:03
\shogra: which is official backports then?06:03
ogra\sh, try that06:03
ogra\sh, the ones that Mez does06:03
DizietThat means that if you have a symlink/directory muddle which appears in more than one package you have to use maintainer scripts to change the link target.06:04

DizietOh, did you notice that I didn't mark the two error strings as translateable.  Do you agree ?06:55
Keybukmeh, I haven't made my mind up on that yet06:55
KeybukI think it's a symptom of lazy translators, I think06:56
DizietI think they do have a point.  If you're going to understand what `failed to stat (dereference) proposed new symlink target `some file' for symlink `some other file': Input/output error   means then you're going to understand it in English too.06:57
DizietAnd indeed you'd be better off with that than some half-baked mush that a translator is likely to make of it.06:57
Keybukthe trouble is, in that example, Input/output error _will_ be translated06:58
Keybukbecause libc error messages get translated06:58

loolHi, does someone has a debian/rules snipset to specialize a Debian package for Ubuntu?07:01
bddebianlool: They are the same07:02
loolbddebian: no I really mean what I said :)07:02
ogralool, just make sure the build-deps are right and the changelog contains breezy as distro07:02
loolI'm a Debian package maintainer and would like to ifdef a change that I can't include right now in Debian07:02
loologra: I need to run some code conditionally07:03
DizietOh, you mean you want to say `if being built for Ubuntu' ?07:03
loolyes!07:03
DizietThere's no way to do that.07:03
loolI've read some things like that in a list; so I thought someone would have a snipset07:04
loolsuch as cat /etc/... release07:04
ogralsb-release -a ?07:04
loolis there a /etc/ubuntu_version?07:04
DizietNo, because you might compile on Debian for Ubuntu or vice-versa (at least when debugging - of course the Ubuntu and Debian build daemons all use their own distro).07:04
ogralool, we use lsb-release07:04
loologra: I'd prefer avoiding new build-deps for the test07:04
ograerr s/-/_/07:04
ograthere is no /etc/ubuntu_version07:05
DizietWhat's the change that you want to conditionally apply ?07:05
loolDiziet: you don't want to know, but trust me :)07:05
DizietTell us anyway :-).07:06
DizietSo we can say `oh, no, you don't want to do that ...', as you seem to be expecting :-).07:06
DizietSod it, I'm not going through any more of these old dpkg bugs to find any Debian BTS bug that's relevant to this diff.07:07
loologra: ah found it, lsb_release indeed07:08
loolhttp://lists.debian.org/deity/2005/08/msg00002.html07:08
loolDiziet: this is to conditionally build a gstreamer package, and calls a debian/control generation script; the reason I wouldn't tell is because it's rapidly frowned upon to generate the control, but in this particular case, it isn't done in "clean", but in a manual rule, so it's ok07:10
DizietOh, if it's an a manual rule then it probably doesn't matter if it's flakey.07:10
loolexactly, and I'm just thinking that I won't need a build-dep since it's not used during (re)build07:11
ograi'd just do a check if /bin/lsb_release exists and inside that a /bin/lsb_release -a without adding it as build dep. its a reverse dependency of ubuntu-minimal ... 07:12
DizietYou should have a build-dep iff the gstreamer needs some extra stuff.07:12
DizietOr do you mean a build-dep on some lsb package ?  No, you don't want that.07:12
ograso you can be pretty sure its there on *every* ubuntu system07:12
