[12:05] but its stange because in the package you have entry`s not containing the prefix [12:05] they just appy install [12:05] install -m .... [12:05] install knows what the prefix is [12:05] enabling support for xinetd should be done in debian/config so it would work with dpkg-reconfigure [12:07] thats the problem it picks inetd even if its not installed [12:07] and the file for xinetd.d should be in /usr/share/pure-ftpd, the config should just symlink it (and the postinst should remove that symlink) [12:07] thats why i added a defpend to inetd [12:07] postrm* [12:08] ile work it out [12:09] just put up some nice music and im on a role [12:09] r.e.m or bad religion [12:09] Isen't inetd about to get removed? I think I read something like that. [12:10] well its okey because now it depends on xinetd (pre) or secundary inetd [12:11] JohnnyMast: I think the inetd functionality was about to get removed altogether... It is not really worth the trouble with the amount of RAM in current boxes. [12:11] if thats the case [12:11] JohnnyMast: But I might be wrong... could have been a debian or gentoo or fedora list where I read that:-) [12:11] the pure-ftpd has to go on the shuffle [12:11] because [12:12] it as like in debian [12:12] prefers inetd [12:12] the whole package is buid that way [12:12] JohnnyMast: I am on way to many MLs. [12:13] and has a no good switch to do || if inetd_install_faild; then mode=standalone [12:13] its not good in that [12:13] good :) [12:13] JohnnyMast, when you think you are finished please post the complete debdiff pn the pastebin [12:13] it keeps you up-to-daye [12:13] Seveas for sure [12:14] JohnnyMast: Well, what good is that if you can't remember where the fact you just learned belongs to? [12:15] its not the orgin but knowing it is better [12:15] i forgot where my shools where [12:15] no way [12:15] but i know what i learned [12:15] :) [12:15] hungers fact is useless, since he doesn't know where it's from (not ubuntu anyway) [12:16] so knowing the origin is important :) [12:17] hmm yeah but i didnt read it in ubuntu eighter so === doko_ [n=doko@dslb-084-059-083-177.pools.arcor-ip.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu [12:25] forgot to add pure-ftpd-common.xinetd to pure-ftpd-common.preinst [12:25] azeem: around ? === Sepheebear [n=SepheeBe@cpe-68-175-48-109.nyc.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu-motu === LaserJock [n=LaserJoc@ppp-69-239-159-45.dsl.renocs.pacbell.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu [01:07] siretart: just so you know, your debian/control in mplayer-skins in not UTF-8 === Mirno [n=mirspcm@office.spcmnet.com] has joined #ubuntu-motu [01:10] or rather [01:10] it doesn't open as UTF8 [01:10] wonder why === bpuccio [n=brian@ool-457afde7.dyn.optonline.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu === theCore [n=ubuntu@Toronto-HSE-ppp3714657.sympatico.ca] has joined #ubuntu-motu [01:58] ok, for the packaging guide do you guys recommend apt-get or aptitude for installing packages? === minghua doesn't see any advantage apt-get has over aptitude [01:59] but then again, my opinion is biased as I'm an aptitude advocator [01:59] aptitude automatically installs Recommends === theCore [n=ubuntu@Toronto-HSE-ppp3714657.sympatico.ca] has left #ubuntu-motu ["Leaving"] [02:00] then recomment using aptitude -R/--without-recommends in your doc === theCore [n=ubuntu@Toronto-HSE-ppp3714657.sympatico.ca] has joined #ubuntu-motu [02:00] LaserJock, that's configurable [02:00] s/recomment/recommend/ [02:01] LaserJock: The only problem I can see is that aptitude 0.4 is still a little beta-ish and has bugs [02:01] oh, I'm not against aptitude but I just want to use something that will be best for readers [02:01] but then again, upstream is fixing them in a fast pace [02:02] minghua: I was thinking installing Recommends was a positive [02:02] LaserJock: just tell them the --without-recommends and the /etc/apt/apt.conf setting at the first place, and I think they'll love it === minghua doesn't think so [02:03] LaserJock: the problem is that quite a lot of Debian packages are misusing the Recommends: section [02:03] LaserJock: many of those should be Suggests: instead [02:04] so then apt-get might be an advantage since you don't have to explain what -R is for, etc. [02:04] LaserJock: yeah, you can say so :-) === Kyral [n=kyral@hamlin-166-12336.hamlin.clarkson.edu] has joined #ubuntu-motu [02:16] lifeless: now === manicka [n=manicka@203-158-39-222.dyn.iinet.net.au] has joined #ubuntu-motu [02:22] I guess Recommends should list packages that directly add fonctionalities to the program === wjb [n=warren@c220-237-178-175.lowrp1.vic.optusnet.com.au] has joined #ubuntu-motu === sephee [n=SepheeBe@cpe-68-175-48-109.nyc.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu-motu === blablablabla [n=maniac@i3ED6E3C9.versanet.de] has joined #ubuntu-motu === Trashcan [n=matt@ip68-2-208-158.ph.ph.cox.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu === SloMoSnail [n=slomo@p5487EE1B.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu === theCore [n=ubuntu@Toronto-HSE-ppp3714657.sympatico.ca] has left #ubuntu-motu ["Leaving"] [03:20] I feel dirty [03:20] I used Checkinstall to make a local package === LaserJock slaps Kyral back into MOTU land ;-) [03:22] Wait [03:22] I can't use Checkinstall [03:22] HA!

[12:44] no no [12:44] it's a tool that gathers all commands to build a database [12:45] hmm [12:45] and works as a deamon on the command prompt [12:45] so that when you ask to run foo and foo is not around bash will tell you 'ah, foo isn't here but you can install it by typing apt-get install blah' [12:45] to check what is typed, grep it and check if the app does exist or not [12:45] no :) [12:45] so if it doesn't, it explains how to install it [12:45] right? [12:45] lol [12:45] it is using bash's command_not_found hook [12:45] ok [12:46] but it must be a deamon, no? [12:46] a deamon would smell like a keylogger ;] [12:46] no, it's only executed when a command is not found [12:46] it's pretty fast [12:46] hmm ok [12:46] :) [12:46] so when I type sl instead of ls it tells me I can install sl ... :) [12:46] so you have to hack the command-no-fond bash sub [12:47] actually we've hacked bash to support that (or mvo did, I just made minor adjustmennt) [12:47] I wrote a program that knows what to suggest [12:47] and a set of data extractors [12:47] good :) [12:47] but right now I need to run all scripts over again [12:47] you'll need a big database to support all commands in Debian-like systems [12:47] especially the third script, the one that reads alternatives [12:47] nah [12:47] mhm [12:48] <0.5M of plain text [12:48] about 4 when in dbm format [12:48] ok :) [12:48] well it's still a big work ;) [12:48] how so?
