littlepaulbluefrog-10, ogra is next week also in Essen; maby we can talk about  your script12:05
bluefrog-10up to u, glad if it can help...12:07
littlepauljuliux, still here?12:07
bluefrog-10littlepaul, hum am running the samba-ldap installation right now on my new server, have fiidled with a user input stuff and i poopooed, am going to change it and will send you the working script by mail..12:10
littlepaulgreat12:10
=== Lord_Athur [n=alejandr@pc-30-37-214-201.cm.vtr.net] has joined #edubuntu
bluefrog-10littlepaul, by the way my samba-ldap script works on a normal eud/ubuntu not a server install (too many things not installed by a server installation..)12:23
littlepaulthis is a good hint because juliux has a server install and we have in Essen just his server; nevertheless I will talk about this script :)12:25
bluefrog-10the problem with the server install is that it's missing (amongst other things) too many perl stuff to my taste and as most of people will install anyway a complete edubuntu/ubuntu (at least teacher) I made it simple for me..12:27
littlepaul:)12:27
bluefrog-10now you could have a look what it does (samba-ldap) on a server install, am still interested in the output..12:27
bluefrog-10k have corrected the stuff, samb-ldap runnning ok (so far) on my new server.. sending you the corrected sh12:28
littlepaulif we have the change to test it - I'll inform you; thx again12:29
bluefrog-10littlepaul btw do you know anything about /etc/skel (by anything i mean more than theory..)?12:30
littlepaulsorry, I didn't played yet with /etc/skel - also just theory...12:31
bluefrog-10k12:32
bluefrog-10last thing am not that worried about my script on a server install cause someone who makes a server install would have little interest i think in an automation script ...12:34

littlepaulyou could be right but such a script is maby for schools administrators with less knowledge very interesting12:36
bluefrog-10that was my purpose indeed.12:37
littlepaulatm I'm writing a short faq in german about edubuntu; more or less a resume from the answers that I read in the logs of the last weeks12:37
bluefrog-10schools or small companies with a computer litterate guy but not too much litterate..12:37
littlepaul:)12:38
bluefrog-10or without too much time. my script enables samba-ldap in 1 minute (from the time all packages are downloaded). It just needs a reboot to be fully working (reboot is not compulsory but i forgot to implement I think a restart of sudo or pam or ssh, can't remember which...)12:40
bluefrog-10will do when have time in front of me12:41
littlepauldo yo work atm also on other things?12:42
bluefrog-10unfortunately no, need to find a job cause i have no more money and a kid to feed...12:42
littlepaulI understand..12:44
bluefrog-10i have put much effort in that cause one of the only way (if i want to stay in computer business) for me is to open my own service company, so i needed to be able to service people in linux (am coming from windows admin world...)12:45
littlepaulthis is quite right; Personally I'm working also in the windows world and linux will be essential in future12:47
bluefrog-10essential well maybe not but when you have no money to put in front to buy freking machines that all comes with windows, yes :)12:48
bluefrog-10and i don't know about germany but in france margin on a computer is around 8%.12:49
bluefrog-10don't make a leaving with 8% except if you have big customers, but big customers means big computer command... vicious circle...12:50
littlepaulsure :/12:51
bluefrog-10everything will be alright as soon as i win the lottery, note for myself, should not forget everyweek to play the lottery...12:52
bluefrog-10k time to hit the sac, gutte nacht12:53
littlepaulgute Nacht and thx for your time12:54
bluefrog-10welcome...12:54

=== Yagisan makes note to get around to learning C soon
Lord_Athuris python only a command program?04:41
ograthere is a package called diveintopython in (ed)ubuntu, it should be installed by default04:41
ograthats a complete python book... :)04:41
ograpython is a programming language04:42
ogragtk is a gui framework ....04:42
ograand pygtk connects the programming language with the gui framework ...04:42
ograstart by learning to write easy python programs04:43
juliuxogra, do you want to do a talk at chemnitzer linux days?04:43
ograthen learn about gtk ... and use pygtk to make guis for the programs you write04:43

ograsure04:53
Yagisanogra: I have a package, it provides a file called jDoom.wad04:54
ograyup04:54
YagisanI have another package, It contains a replacement jDoom.wad04:54
YagisanCan I have package 2, move package 1's jDoom.wad04:54
Yagisanwithout breaking package 1 ? package 2 depends on package 104:55
ograadd a "Replaces: package 1" to package 2's control file04:55
YagisanIt's an enhancement rather then a replacement04:56
ograyou replace a file of package 1 in package 2, so this is the appropriate way ...04:56
ograthe Replaces dirctive allows package 2 to replace parts of package 104:57
ograelse you will get a conflict in apt04:57
YagisanSo, if package 2 is uninstalled, it will restore the overwritten parts of package 1 ?04:57
ogranope04:57
ograthats a job for dpkg-divert ... 04:58
ograyou call dpkg-divert in postinst/postrm of package 2 to make it move the file around...04:58
ograthat will restore the file post removal04:58
ograread up about dpkg-divert ...04:59

ograevery source package contains the tar.gz with the original sourcecode of an app ... apt-get source <package> unpacks this tarball in your current dir and applies the diff that contains the packaging information ...07:07
