[05:43] raphink: Why not? [05:43] hunger: just wondering [05:43] dh_make won't do anything about it [05:43] raphink: If it can get installed, then it can get packaged;-) [05:44] since there's no makefile [05:44] raphink: Remove that. [05:44] well the question is rather : _how_ can it be packaged ? [05:44] raphink: you would probably only need to create a $pkg.install file to copy files from the pkg to the right location [05:44] raphink: the install targets basically only need to call the install script. [05:44] raphink: you'd need to use dh_install probably [05:44] sombody please correct me if I am talking rubbish :) [05:44] raphink: or do what sivang says:-) [05:44] ok [05:45] well the install script uses a qt dialog [05:45] I think this is not suitable in a package [05:45] it asks for a choice between 3 actions and then puts the bash scripts in teh right places [05:45] raphink: you should then try to convert i into a debconf question.. [05:45] raphink: Oh... then you will need to copy the files "manually" in the appropriate install target. [05:46] hunger: w00t! [05:46] sivang: so I would have to basically convert the install.sh into a pre script with debconf and a post script installing the scripts in the system [05:46] right? [05:47] raphink: If there is no place where it belongs in debian then converting the dialog into a debconf question might be a good idea. [05:47] siretart: ? [05:47] hunger: kim is just a series of scripts that add a submenu in Konqueror to manage images [05:48] raphink: Then all you need to do is figure out where the scripts need to go in ubuntu's konqueror install. [05:48] raphink: And declare a dependencies on konqueror. [05:48] hunger: that's what the install.sh script does [05:48] yes I guess so hunger [05:48] there is a dependency on konqueror and imagemagick === sanpera` [n=sanpera@wls-21-226-196-65.tls.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu [05:49] the pb is not the dependencies actually for me but rather the way to package it [05:49] raphink: Doesen't sound to hard to do then;-) [05:49] hunger: yay for your dom0 debs [05:49] just have to know how hunger ;) [05:49] siretart: Oh, thanks. [05:49] raphink: I think so...but better follow hunger's suggestions :) [05:50] sivang: I have no clue what I am talking about;-) [05:50] lol [05:50] hunger: err, then you fooled me :) I'm really insecure still with pkging question, but I try my best helping without causing harm :) [05:50] raphink: You should get a template with that script... [05:51] what do you mean hunger ? [05:51] raphink: Then you should be able to remove all the stuff in the build rules. [05:51] hunger: there must be something like that somewhere [05:51] raphink: Let me check... only ever used that script once:-) [05:51] ok [05:51] hunger: as a ready template , probably for python stuff that doesn't need pyc [05:52] siretart: Can I use the current version number of the debs in debian/control? [05:52] so if I understand well [05:52] the easiest way should be to use a .install [05:52] raphink: dh_make.... [05:52] and use dh_install in the rules [05:52] raphink: that's what it was called;-) [05:52] hunger: dh_make says it finds no makefile [05:53] raphink: I'd try "touch Makefile" then;-) [05:53] raphink: But don't listen to me too carefully, I only started on my first deb last week. [05:53] hehe [05:54] raphink: I'm messing around a lot without a clear idea of how things should work. [05:54] hmmm [05:54] hunger: err, what do you mean with 'current version number'? [05:54] I think I should only ask a debconf question in a pre script [05:54] and then use the install script as it is in a post [05:54] siretart: The newest changelog entry. [05:55] siretart: I want to make sure that you only use a set of debs from the same revision. [05:55] hunger: what do you currently have as version number? [05:55] siretart: 3.0pre20051113-0ubuntu1 [05:55] Hi, Universe bugs are reported in Malone, right ? [05:55] I think... [05:55] hunger: you can force this with versioned depends [05:56] siretart: Yeap... my question is: How so? [05:56] that version number sounds sane [05:56] Gazer: yes [05:57] siretart: I hoped so;-) It is < 3.0.0 so there shouldn't be a problem when the stable version is released. [05:58] hunger: oh, that easy: place a 'Depends: hypervisor (= ${Source-Version})' [05:58] in debian/control [05:58] or how your dependency tree actually is [05:58] please try to avoid circular dependencies [05:58] siretart: Thanks! I was looking for that ${Source-Version};-) [05:59] siretart: Do I need to Replace << ${S-V}? [05:59] Nafallo, thx [05:59] no [06:05] is there a tool to make scripts using debconf easily? [06:05] or should scripts with debconf be written manually? === Danten [n=danten@h171n10c1o1049.bredband.skanova.com] has joined #Ubuntu-motu [06:08] raphink: What do you want to use debconf for? [06:08] well I'm wondering what I shall do actually lol [06:08] raphink: Wasen't that QT dialog about figuring out where the files must go? [06:08] the kim install.sh script asks whether you want a default install or an install with plugins [06:08] that's what the qt dialog asks [06:09] raphink: Why not do a "kim" deb and a "kim-plugins" deb? [06:09] hmmm [06:09] that might do it [06:10] raphink: You can suggest the plugins from the kim one and depend on kim in the plugins. [06:10] except that the installation with plugins is just one more file [06:11] I don't think it's a good idea to make a new package for just one more line [06:11] raphink: Then just install that file and be done with it;-) [06:11] yep I'll install the plugins by default [06:11] but then [06:11] sorry for all these stupid questions ;) [06:11] raphink: ... or is that file huge? [06:11] I don't think so hunger [06:12] raphink: No problem. I'm waiting on debuild anyway:-) [06:12] hunger: http://ubuntu-fr.pastebin.com/429199 [06:12] this is the install.sh script [06:13] raphink: I wouldn't start another package for that;-) [06:13] how shall I use it to make a package and have each script installed in the right place is what I don't understand [06:13] well it's a useful tool hunger [06:13] raphink: How big is the plugins dir? [06:14] 5.5kB LOL === wjb [n=warren@c220-237-178-175.lowrp1.vic.optusnet.com.au] has joined #ubuntu-motu [06:14] raphink: Why do they ask about installing the plugins for 5kB? Does it add lots of entries into the menus? [06:15] no idea, I never tried without [06:15] it adds two functions [06:16] well more actually [06:16] it adds movie options [06:16] anyway that's not the main point [06:16] ;) [06:18] How can I send a bug correction on a Universe package ? [06:18] and hello everyone :) [06:18] hunger: the main point is : how do I sent the package to instlal the components ? [06:18] *set [06:19] Gloubiboulga: a patch? [06:19] raphink: Copy the stuff under 2) in that pastebin file into debian/rules (install-indep). [06:19] ok [06:19] raphink: remove everything not appropriate in there... that should have been it. [06:19] hmm [06:19] dholbach, I don't know.. a patch is enough ? [06:19] raphink: Make sure that the stuff is installed in debian/tmp! [06:19] I'd have to know what is appropriate and what is not I guess [06:20] Gloubiboulga: you can "add attachment" or something on the bug - if you put the patch there, that'd be great [06:20] raphink: Well, does it have man pages? [06:20] nope hunger, only an html manual [06:20] ok dholbach [06:21] raphink So you don't need dh_installman;-) [06:21] raphink: Read the docs. [06:21] btw, I've sent a package on revu (my first "official" package) [06:28] dholbach, the bug report should be done on malone, right ?

[10:07] i just know one of them :) [10:07] dholbach: you know smurf :-) [10:08] yeah [10:08] it is from the german ubuntu club/association. it was founding last weekend [10:09] can you give names of the different people? [10:10] dholbach: ehm, yes. but i think no one knows the names. i know there nick names in irc and some realnames [10:10] fire away [10:10] guys I might be dumb but I browsed the whole debian maintainer's guide and have found no answer to my pb :( [10:10] raphink: what problem is it? [10:11] dholbach: I'd like to package Kim, which is a collection of bash sccript [10:11] script [10:11] the "source" package contains an install.sh script that tells where each script has to go [10:11] but I don't know how I should turn that into a deb package [10:11] :s [10:12] raphink: i suggest you take a look at *very simple* python packages, which just install a bunch of files to wherever they should be [10:12] if I should create a Makefile (and I don't know how to do that) or use debian/rules [10:12] erm [10:12] dholbach: well I've packaged two programs already [10:12] most python packages use setup.py [10:13] like mine (to be reviewed *hint* *hint) [10:13] but I think kim is a nice set of scripts and I'd like to have it packaged [10:13] herve: most python packages' setup.py is unusable :) [10:13] raphink, then you know about debian/rules? [10:13] sure herve [10:13] herve: it's not my first package [10:13] dholbach, I bet mine isn't ;-) [10:13] but I am very very far from mastering packaging ;) [10:14] raphink, then it's just a matter of call ./install.sh with the right prefix, no? [10:14] raphink: you're gonna have the same mentor than me ??? ^_^ [10:14] herve: well the thing is that the install.sh script calls kdialog with dcop and I don't wna that in a package [10:14] Tonio_, you know Dinofly? [10:14] Tonio_: herve is your mentor? [10:14] raphink, ho GUI installer? [10:15] raphink: dholbach is [10:15] herve: dinofly ? yes, very good friend of mine [10:15] dholbach: from right, its mitsuhiko (armin - i think he will listen now *g*) one of the http://www.ubuntuusers.de admin. next to him SS2, daboo, elys, smurf. littlepaul, jrg and juliux, juliux has made the ubuntu banner with mpathy. the banner was build for the linux day in essen (ger) on 3./4.12.05. [10:15] Tonio_, I was in school with him :-) [10:15] :-) [10:15] *g* [10:15] herve: well basically, the install.sh script asks for an install option with kdialog and then installs using basic bash commands [10:15] herve: arf [10:15] hi dholbach :) [10:15] herve: how did you gess ? === Danten [n=danten@h171n10c1o1049.bredband.skanova.com] has joined #Ubuntu-motu [10:16] mitsuhiko, markuman: well done guys... you rock [10:16] herve: I could use the bash commands in this script though, but I don't know where to put them [10:16] Tonio_, the whois [10:16] s/gess/guess [10:16] herve: ah okay ;) logic ^^ [10:16] hi all [10:16] raphink, then you have to write your installer from debian/rules... [10:16] I don't know how herve ... [10:16] hi [10:16] I wish I knwe [10:17] herve: the first problem is that there is no Makefile and dpkg-buildpackage will give me an error because of this [10:17] what is the installer doing, just copying nO? [10:17] yes herve [10:17] I don't see why dpkg-buildpackage would complain [10:17] raphink: the easier way is to use cdbs [10:17] well it says it can't build herve [10:17] unless you took a rules from another package assuming there is a Makefile to call :-) [10:17] Tonio_: is that _really_ easier? [10:18] and simply add cp and chmod commands in an "install\package::" section [10:18] Often I need to test build on a debian/unstable pbuilder environment, and then back to ubuntu. Is there a way to keep 2 separate settings for pbuilder? [10:18] raphink: cdbs ? yes, much easier [10:18] raphink, it's just about copying in the temp directory, no? [10:18] yes herve I guess [10:18] the only problem with cdbs is that you have to learn the solution for each problem [10:19] that's the only thing to be done [10:19] "how to perform this" [10:19] but once you know it..... really easier [10:19] Tonio_: I think I'dlike to learn it the traditional way first [10:19] raphink, you could ask upstream to split up the installer utility from the GUI, so you and other maintainers can reuse the installer [10:19] a cdbs rules file is generally between 256 and 512 bytes [10:19] not more [10:20] mhm [10:20] raphink, check also if this software is packaged in other distributions and how they do it [10:20] I personnaly learned cdbs directly.... it hasn't been easy, but I don't regret it [10:20] I don't think it's packaged herve [10:20] I'll hav a look [10:20] hmm [10:21] there are packages for mandriva and sue [10:21] suse [10:21] :) [10:21] would that help ? [10:21] raphink: nope..... [10:21] it doesn't work the same way I guess [10:21] hmm [10:21] any MOTU: please look at Malone 4443 [10:21] Error: Could not parse XML returned by Malone bugzilla: Connection to Malone bugzilla failed: HTTP Error 404: Not Found [10:21] if I run alien on the rpm, do you think it can give me a hint? [10:22] *barbarian way* [10:22] raphink: nope [10:22] k [10:22] raphink, yes, you could see how their build scripts and what files they copy [10:22] :( [10:22] because you will not have any information required by a valid source package [10:22] how do I open an rpm ? [10:22] and anyway you will miss the debian folder structure [10:23] yes Tonio_ but i can see how they deal with the scripts [10:23] dholbach: I see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FormalTestPlans is not updated with what we worked on during UBZ, is it on another page? [10:23] raphink, use midnight commander :-) [10:23] sivang: it's linked from it [10:23] argh [10:23] raphink: is your package a collection of python scripts, or bashscripts ? [10:23] bash Tonio_ [10:24] raphink: there are lots of packages that are scripts colletction [10:24] like what? [10:24] debuild is a script [10:24] it is installed by a package [10:24] mhm [10:24] so you may found the way to proceed looking at one of those sources packages [10:25] I'll look at devscript [10:25] yes but the installer is probably less awkward :-) [10:26] lets see [10:26] raphink: look at the devscripts source package [10:26] that might help [10:26] taht's what I'm doing Tonio_ [10:26] sorry, didn't read before writing ;) [10:26] hehe [10:27] that's the idea I had origially [10:27] they use postinst and postrm [10:27] ;) [10:29] there is nothing special in debian/rules [10:29] they seem to install all scripts with postinst and postrm [10:30] so they don't use debian/temp either [10:31] strange... [10:31] heh [10:31] if they do it, then I should do it too ;) [10:31] so just using what is in the install.sh [10:31] nope [10:32] ogra: what do you think ? [10:32] the packaging system doesnt know anything about files you install via postinst [10:32] yes ogra [10:32] you could give your users a tgz with the same effect [10:32] still that's the option that was chosen for devscripts [10:33] sure ogra, the difference is that a tgz can't be found in the apt-get db, installed and upgraded [10:33] might be, but if you want to have dpkg -S or apt-file working with it, you should install them from the package not from the config scripts [10:33] surely this package won't be much more than a tgz since there's nothing to build anyway [10:33] hmm [10:33] I don't know how to do that ogra [10:33] its not *that* hard :) [10:34] when you know how to do I'm sure it's not hard ;) [10:34] http://people.ubuntu.com/~ogra/bzr-archive/student-control-panel-0.1/ i just uploaded this source, the debian/rules simply copy stuff into place... its all scripts and png's [10:35] but the packaging system will know about every single file in there ... === _jason [n=jason@dhcp0534.hrn.resnet.group.upenn.edu] has joined #ubuntu-motu [10:36] in case someone puts a script with the same name like yours in his package and it has the same path your stuff will simply get overwritten... [10:36] yes I understand that [10:36] so what shall I use [10:36] what is the specificity of your debian/rules [10:36] make it a real package [10:36] or what do you use in addition to it [10:36] ? [10:36] there is none ... [10:37] the files and dirs get listed in the student-control-panel.dirs and student-control-panel.install files [10:37] ok [10:38] dh_install in the rules file just move the files into place [10:38] you basically list the files and for each file you tell where they have to go in the system, right? [10:38] exactly ... [10:38] ok [10:38] and i removed all make related stuff from the rules file [10:38] so if the scripts of the kim package are in bin [10:38] I should have things like [10:38] bin/*.sh /usr/share/wherevertheyhavetogo/ [10:39] in the kim.install [10:39] yup [10:39] ok [10:39] see this is simple [10:39] yup :) [10:39] and way less evil ;) [10:39] but I found _no_ mention of this in the debian maintainer's guide === slomo [n=slomo@ubuntu/member/slomo] has joined #ubuntu-motu [10:40] the only thing you need to know is that rules is a makefile ... it can do everything a makefile can ... even simple cp or mv commands ... [10:40] then only make lintian/linda happy and you have basically a good package [10:41] yes [10:41] I'm learning === McFergus [n=frg@85-18-14-13.fastres.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu [10:41] ;) [10:41] :) [10:41] ogra: but you better use dh_install for copying/moving files no? [10:41] sivang, yup [10:41] !ftp [10:41] ogra: rather then doing it "manually" with cp, mv, or whatever.. [10:42] wrong window... sorry [10:42] always ude the debhelper scripts (or cdbs, as you like) [10:42] *use [10:43] ogra: feel free to ping me on that gnome-system-toosl change, I'm mostly busy during the day , but if I see someone pinging me on IRC, I tend to leave everything at work and attend to him :) [10:43] but there is no policy in debian that forbids 500 cp commands in debian/rules ... even if its darn ugly it schouldn't violate any debian policy [10:43] ah , I see. [10:43] good to know [10:43] sivang, i will, im currently more busy on low level ltsp stuff... [10:44] ogra: sure, I just wanted you to feel free :) [10:44] it will still take some days before i get up to speed with other things [10:44] but we have sound in ltap :) [10:44] *ltsp [10:44] cool ! [10:45] yup... out of the box, no configuration needed .... :) [10:45] amazing [10:45] through the device on-tcpip-loopback ?

[10:46] :) [10:46] the intresting thing is that i get rather delays in the X output than choppy sound with it ... [10:47] it had expected it the other way around [10:47] well, sound is easier to deliver AFAICT [10:47] less traffic [10:47] then visual stuff [10:47] \sh: can we add an auto-email elmo feature to the sync request part of lpbugs? [10:47] bmonty_laptop, better ask this to elmo first :) [10:48] ogra: I'm trying to be a little sarcastic, but it would be nice ;) [10:49] i think he doesnt care if the requests come from a lp feature, but i doubt he likes to be the guinea peg while it gets developed ;) [10:49] s/peg/pig/ [10:49] the idea isnt bad :) [10:49] I wonder if he has a special address for sync requests [10:50] ogra: the install.sh script I have uses kim*.desktop $kdeinstdir/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus/ [10:50] shall I keep the $kdeinstdir variable or replace it ? [10:50] maybe we could have it build the command line for whatever tool he uses to do syncs and then he could just cut and paste to a shell [10:51] depends, is there such a variable in the system if kde is installed ? (gnome here) [10:51] hmm [10:51] how do I know that ? [10:51] echo $kdeinstdir ? [10:51] yup [10:51] but i doubt it ... [10:52] well there is no such a variable [10:52] but the install script worked on my system though [10:52] ... === jeanmichel [n=jeanmich@sisay.ephaone.org] has joined #ubuntu-motu [10:52] doh! [10:52] the variable is set a few lines before ;) [10:52] hehe sorry ;) [10:52] dont worry [10:52] its usually /usr [10:52] kde-config --prefix [10:53] that's how they get it [10:53] is it worth it that I get it this way somewhere? [10:53] or shall I just use /usr ? [10:53] since the kde paths wont just randomly change in kubuntu i think its safe to assume it stays /usr for some time :) [10:54] ok [10:54] then is there a way I can set the chmod in the .install ? [10:55] since the install.sh script sets the chmod [10:55] is there a way I can do it cleanly within the .install maybe ? [10:56] dh_fixperms shoudl care for that [10:56] ok [10:57] and I guess mkdir should go to the .dirs :) [10:57] yup [10:57] simple :) [10:57] yep := [10:57] ) [10:57] all cp to .install and all mkdir to .dirs :) [10:58] exactly [10:58] ok next issue is with this : [10:58] cd $kdeinstdir/share/apps/konqueror/servicemenus/ [10:58] mv imageconverter.desktop imageconverter.desktop~ [10:58] mv jpegorient.desktop jpegorient.desktop~ [10:58] I'm not sure this should be kept [10:58] this turns some services down [10:58] since kim services replace them [10:59] :s [10:59] they are most likely in another package... its evil to move files from other packages :) [10:59] yes [11:00] but then there's gonna be two converters in the menus in konqueror [11:00] which is why kim removes them [11:00] let's see what package they come with :) [11:01] ok they come with konq-plugins [11:01] no surprise [11:01] is there a way I can have the same result cleanly ogra ? [11:01] or should I not touch it at all? [11:01] have a look at dpkg-divert's manpage :) [11:02] hmm ok [11:04] btw, that is something for postinst/postrm :) [11:04] ic [11:05] so in postinst I should ust dpkg-divert [11:05] to rename imageconverter.desktop to imageconverter.desktop [11:05] sorry with ~ [11:05] yup [11:05] and in postrm it sould remove the diversion [11:05] logically [11:05] so the packaging system (and thus the konqueror package) know about it [11:06] yes [11:06] yup [11:18] raphink: FWIW: in case you don't hardcode the path use: kde-config --expandvars --install data + /konqueror/servicemenus (and report upstream ;) [11:18] <\sh> going to bed...

[11:25] do buildds run about twice an hour? [11:25] janimo: I think you have to bump the version, at least that is what crimsun had to for a package we were working on [11:26] ok thanks [11:26] no idea allee [11:26] but it made it to the changes-list === allee downloading ...

[11:43] raphink: yes and maybe s/Gig/Gif/ and in english there no space before [11:43] '1' afaik [11:43] s/'1'/'!'/ [11:43] ok [11:44] hmm [11:44] shall I correct it in my package and tell the upstream author at the same time [11:44] or should he fix it before and then I package the patched version? [11:44] :s [11:45] raphink: depends on you. If it's cosmetics this IMHO okay to just report and wait. If it a real bug, fix it (or ask upstream) and incorporate it into you pkgs [11:45] well it's just cosmetics I thin [11:45] think [11:45] raphink: upstream if always happy of course if you the gets patches ;) [11:46] yes [11:46] so just report the bug and wait [11:46] I mean telling him what has to be changed [11:47] dholbach: beagle. [11:47] ;) [11:47] raphink: he will be delighted ;) [11:47] hehe [11:48] I'll do that as soon as I'm done updating my repo [11:48] tseng: hm, doesnt seem to be shipped then [11:48] maybe not [11:49] tseng: no libbeagle love [11:49] there are regressions from the debian version [11:49] tseng: i see [11:49] i have the so's [11:49] but no pc [11:49] raphink: all scripts use #!/bin/sh. Maybe check if there's no bashism?? [11:49] maybe it will be shipped in the new version [11:49] there is allee I think [11:49] maybe. [11:49] if [ ! -d /tmp/kim ] ; then [11:49] mkdir $TMPDIR; [11:49] it's matter of encoding as you said [11:50] raphink: is also no good idea. [11:50] hmm ok [11:50] well hmm I'm not sure I grasp all you would report and why [11:50] would you report it yourself ? [11:51] 'k [11:51] tseng: how are you? [11:51] i am ok, you? [11:51] thanks a lot allee :) [11:52] tseng: a bit tired, but ok, thank you :) [11:52] good [11:52] btw allee the pb is not exactly about declaring the encoding, but the `plugins' scripts are not typed as utf-8 [11:52] Tonio_: uploaded [11:52] that's why it doesn't work === Tifa [n=alucard@cpc6-hem14-6-0-cust87.lutn.cable.ntl.com] has joined #ubuntu-motu [11:59] raphink: oh, oh, lots of hardcoded /tmp filename [11:59] where? [12:00] grep /tmp bin/* [12:00] how should it be coded? [12:01] allee: how should it be coded instead? [12:01] raphink: e.g. using mktemp(1) [12:01] ok [12:01] dholbach: ? uploaded ? [12:01] Tonio_: pwmanager? [12:01] or you user private KDE dir in tmp [12:01] dholbach: ah okay ;) [12:02] s/you/use/ [12:02] I'm not a coder allee so I don't know much about that yet ;) === tvelocity [n=tony@84.254.14.232] has joined #ubuntu-motu [12:02] ic allee [12:02] allee: the pb is that it might make conflicts with other apps, right?
