| hub_ | lifeless: in dapper or still on revu? | 12:04 |
|---|---|---|
| lifeless | neither | 12:04 |
| hub_ | ah | 12:04 |
| hub_ | where? | 12:04 |
| lifeless | I have the package as source on people.ubuntu.com | 12:04 |
| lifeless | http://people.ubuntu.com/~robertc/ | 12:04 |
| lifeless | opensync/upstream is a bzr branch of the upstream [effectively the upstream tarball] | 12:04 |
| lifeless | theres also a debian patched version and the debian control dir | 12:05 |
| hub_ | what about upload to universe? | 12:05 |
| lifeless | its not quite ready. | 12:05 |
| lifeless | I'll upload it to sid next weekend I think | 12:05 |
| hub_ | okay | 12:05 |
| lifeless | I can't upload to universe, I'm not a MOTU | 12:05 |
| hub_ | well if it is in Debian it will make its way :-) | 12:06 |
| hub_ | I'll just apt-get source it :-) | 12:06 |
| hub_ | I thought about packaging it, but I got stuck in various other things | 12:06 |
| hub_ | unrelated | 12:06 |
| dholbach | damn, now i did a secret key combo and my kvm switch worked, i need to find out which one it was | 12:07 |
| lifeless | hub_: so me, ajmitch and azeem are teaming up to package the lot | 12:08 |
| lifeless | if you have spare cycles, the more the merrier | 12:08 |
| hub_ | dholbach: on mine it is "scroll lock" twice and a number (not on the keypad) | 12:08 |

| raphink | ajmitch: would you have some time to review packages? | 12:46 |
| sistpoty | good night everyone | 12:46 |
| raphink | night sistpoty | 12:47 |
| ajmitch | raphink: maybe | 12:48 |
| raphink | :) | 12:49 |
| raphink | ajmitch: there's a large choice on REVU :) easiest ones might be the ones that have already been advocated :) | 12:49 |
| raphink | (not very sure) | 12:49 |
| lfittl | ajmitch: Do you have some time to review http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?upid=1127 again? (I just need that one to know how to do library packaging correctly) | 12:49 |
| raphink | I'll review it lfittl if you want | 12:50 |
| lfittl | raphink: that would be nice :) | 12:50 |
| raphink | so ajmitch can review my packages | 12:50 |
| raphink | unless you can review them :) | 12:50 |
| lfittl | I am no reviewer (yet) ;) | 12:51 |
| === ajmitch is at work, so clamoring for reviews isn't going to be very effective | ||
| ajmitch | since usually I'd just do it sometime when I'm at home :) | 12:51 |
| raphink | lfittl: do you know about debian/*.install files ? | 12:52 |
| lfittl | raphink: sure, but like putting things in debian/rules if possible ;) | 12:52 |
| raphink | ok | 12:52 |
| raphink | it's just that I think using debian/*.install is easier for libs | 12:53 |
| raphink | for many things, but esp. for libs ;) | 12:53 |
| raphink | as you generate different files for different packages | 12:53 |
| raphink | but I understand if you don't like to use them :) | 12:53 |
| lfittl | good :) | 12:53 |
| raphink | dh_install src/libcafix.so.0.1.1 /usr/lib <-- you don't build the lib? | 12:54 |
| raphink | I might be wrong, but I think debhelper+cdbs usually builds the libs in debian/tmp/ | 12:55 |
| lfittl | bad upstream makefile that puts the built lib in src/ ;) | 12:55 |
| raphink | not in src/ | 12:55 |
| raphink | oh ok | 12:55 |
| raphink | that's a bit surprising but as long as it has an explanation ;) | 12:56 |
| raphink | did you report this to upstream? | 12:56 |
| lfittl | it seems upstream is almost dead | 12:56 |
| raphink | oh :( | 12:56 |
| lfittl | last release was 3 years ago ;) | 12:57 |
| raphink | ouch | 12:57 |
| raphink | hopefully releasing the package in Ubuntu might get people to work on it | 12:57 |
| raphink | never know | 12:57 |
| lfittl | maybe :) | 12:57 |
| ajmitch | yes, putting anything straight into /usr in packaging is a recipe for disaster | 12:57 |
| === ajmitch should have commented on that one earlier | ||
| raphink | what do you mean ajmitch ? | 12:58 |
| raphink | what is put straight in /usr? | 12:58 |
| === theCore [n=thecore@toronto-HSE-ppp3960900.sympatico.ca] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| ajmitch | just saying that if you did it that way | 12:59 |
| ajmitch | dh_install should prepend the appropriate directory | 12:59 |
| ajmitch | iirc | 12:59 |
| raphink | ajmitch: I just meant that the source is usually built in debian/tmp | 01:00 |
| raphink | so that the lib is found in debian/tmp/usr/lib | 01:00 |
| raphink | but in that case it's built in src/ | 01:00 |
| ajmitch | no, the source is built in place | 01:01 |
| ajmitch | and installed into debian/tmp using the DESTDIR argument | 01:01 |
| ajmitch | which this makefile happily ignores | 01:01 |
| raphink | which is usually automatic, using debhelper+cdbs, no? | 01:01 |
| ajmitch | mkdir -p /usr/lib | 01:01 |
| ajmitch | /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 include/cafix.h /usr/include/ | 01:01 |
| ajmitch | /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 src/libcafix.a /usr/lib | 01:01 |
| ajmitch | /usr/bin/install -c -m 755 src/libcafix.so.0.1.1 /usr/lib/ | 01:01 |
| raphink | ok | 01:01 |
| ajmitch | that looks to really not be healthy | 01:01 |
| raphink | ic | 01:02 |
| ajmitch | since it's installing files outside of the packaging | 01:02 |
| ajmitch | potentially overwriting the files installed on the system, etc | 01:03 |
| ajmitch | and generally messing things up | 01:03 |
| lfittl | ajmitch: should I patch the Makefile? | 01:03 |
| lfittl | or just disable the autotools install target | 01:03 |

| ajmitch | considering that I went to bed at about 2:30, I did well I think | 01:42 |
| Kyral | lol | 01:42 |
| Kyral | indeed | 01:42 |
| Kyral | oh, the only reason I'm pushing EasyChem right now is because I was handed the World file from the COSI Lab Build and told that if I can find all of them in Ubuntu, then next semester we will put Ubuntu as the lab build | 01:43 |
| Kyral | and EasyChem is on the list lol | 01:43 |
| ajmitch | does it work without crashing all over the place? | 01:44 |

| Kyral | hmm so I do lol | 01:48 |
| ajmitch | and I don't know if anything gets into /usr/share/doc/easychem/examples | 01:48 |

| raphink | bye | 01:49 |
| ajmitch | but this is a 2 minute look ;) | 01:49 |
| Kyral | lol | 01:49 |
| ajmitch | does the makefile actually have an install target? | 01:50 |
| Kyral | in the orig source, no. But I patch one in and the patch is in debian/patches | 01:51 |
| ajmitch | ah right | 01:51 |
| === ajmitch was looking at the files as they were, unpatched | ||
| Kyral | This was the reason for the first MOTU-School lol | 01:51 |
| ajmitch | yeah, not terribly tidy, having a prefix with /usr/bin | 01:52 |
| ajmitch | just because PREFIX is meant to be used for other files apart from the executable | 01:53 |
| Kyral | isn't that where it is supposed to go? | 01:53 |
| ajmitch | sure | 01:54 |
| ajmitch | but you'd usually set PREFIX=/usr | 01:54 |
| Kyral | oh | 01:54 |
| ajmitch | and install into ${DESTDIR}/${PREFIX}/bin | 01:54 |
| Kyral | ah | 01:55 |
| ajmitch | ( not {, iirc | 01:55 |
| ajmitch | but I guess it's alright as it is, just not optimal :) | 01:55 |
| ajmitch | how useful is it to install a TODO in french? ;) | 01:56 |
| Kyral | the upstream author is french ;P | 01:56 |
| ajmitch | I know, but you mentioned TODO in debian/docs | 01:56 |
| Kyral | and I don't know enough french to even TRY to translate it | 01:56 |
| ajmitch | it's fairly readable | 01:57 |
| ajmitch | but I'm not sure of its value | 01:57 |
| ajmitch | I suppose you can keep it :) | 01:57 |
| Kyral | I could register it on LP (after talking with upstream) and use Rosetta :D | 01:58 |
| === ajmitch doesn't like the patch system you use ;) | ||
| === Kyral falls down | ||
| bmonty | can someone help with figuring out why this build fails? http://www.montynet.org/ubuntu/kshutdown-buildlog.txt | 01:59 |
| bmonty | supposedly this builds on debian, but even the debian package fails in the same way | 02:00 |
| Kyral | blame \sh or whoever taught the first MOTUSchool lol. Its the only patch method I know | 02:00 |
| ajmitch | bmonty: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=342879 | 02:00 |

| Kyral | I smell another MOTUSchool ;P | 02:02 |
| bmonty | ajmitch: looking... | 02:02 |
| ajmitch | Kyral: I think we were going to do a followup to talk about a better system (stamp per patch, using --dry-run first) | 02:02 |
| bmonty | ajmitch: ok, so this is a cdbs bug with no fix yet? | 02:03 |
| ajmitch | yep | 02:04 |
| ajmitch | only fix so far is downgrade make | 02:04 |
| bmonty | I guess this merge will wait until it gets fixed then :( | 02:05 |

| ajmitch | LaserJock: at a glance, I think it's better | 04:58 |
| LaserJock | bmonty: how about Super Wicked Fast Ubuntu Mirror Finder (swfumf) ? | 04:59 |

| LaserJock | oh well, I'm no good with names | 05:00 |
| bmonty | the debian prog is called apt-spy, but I think ubuntu-spy implies that canonical is pulling a big brother :) | 05:02 |

| raphink | there's an app I'd like to package | 01:27 |

| eth42 | I simply added multiverse to that line, and it worked | 04:36 |
| raphink | is it ok to remove lots of unuseful things from a source before packaging it ? | 04:37 |
| zakame | eth42: good work then | 04:37 |
| eth42 | but I expected that synaptic would offer this choise as well | 04:37 |
| eth42 | thanks! | 04:37 |
| zakame | raphink: define un-useful :) | 04:37 |
| raphink | zakame: I'm packaging a program that is used by my ISP to allow users to play their media files on their TV using the modem | 04:38 |
| raphink | the tarball provided by my ISP includes a tarball of VLC | 04:38 |
| raphink | at a certain time, this was useful since the hack done to VLC by my ISP was not yet in the VLC trunk | 04:39 |
| zakame | raphink: ah... could you build that using the already-packaged vlc then? | 04:39 |
| raphink | but now VLC has merged it so it's stupid to distribute vlc together with it | 04:39 |
| raphink | sure zakame | 04:39 |
| raphink | but then I need totally review the package | 04:39 |
| raphink | I mean | 04:39 |
| raphink | clean unuseful things | 04:40 |
| raphink | obsolete | 04:40 |
| raphink | that would have the package be around 12MB instead of 1 | 04:40 |
| raphink | so I'd need to actually remove two things from the source : the vlc tarball and the source of another app that is now obsolete | 04:40 |
| ogra | raphink, as long as you dont change the upstream source (orig.tar.gz) everything is allowed here ;) | 04:40 |
| zakame | raphink: ooh! well, make sure it works before removing | 04:40 |
| raphink | ogra so I would do that through patches? | 04:41 |
| raphink | sure zakame | 04:41 |
| ogra | everything as in policy compliant indeed | 04:41 |
| raphink | ok | 04:41 |
| zakame | raphink: err this is a NEW package right? | 04:41 |
| ogra | raphink, for example ... or through the rules file ... | 04:41 |
| raphink | that'll still make a very big debdiff | 04:41 |
| raphink | zakame: yes it's a new package | 04:41 |
| raphink | ogra : like a series of rm in the build section? | 04:42 |
| zakame | ogra: but then again, -policy allows a repackaged source, as long there's notice of repackaging :) | 04:42 |

| ogra | zakame, yes, but that should be a last resort ... | 04:42 |
| ogra | raphink, for example, yes ... | 04:42 |
| raphink | from the way the source looks, it might be easier to just take the few required things from it and repackage | 04:42 |
| === mitsukranko is now known as mitsuhiko | ||
| ogra | or just omit the building of parts you dont want ... | 04:43 |
| zakame | raphink: or you can convince your good upstream to drop their pre-packaged vlc ;) | 04:43 |
| raphink | hmm | 04:43 |
| raphink | the good upstream is my ISP | 04:43 |
| raphink | and I don't think they mind so much | 04:43 |
| zakame | then have them release a new version without the extra stuff | 04:44 |
| raphink | mhm | 04:44 |

| jsgotangco | hiya | 04:46 |
| eth42 | I wonder how the faac deb-src could get compiled if it requests a package libmp4-dev for build which I cannot find for any Ubuntu distribution... | 04:46 |
| zakame | er its libmp4v2-dev | 04:46 |
| siretart | eth42: if you look in the source package, there is a file called 'debian/control' | 04:47 |
| siretart | eth42: in that file, there is a line 'Build-Depends' | 04:47 |
| siretart | eth42: this line holds a list of packages which have to be installed to build that package. the autobuilders will install these packages in prior building the package. that installation process is also shown in the buildlogs I pointed you to | 04:48 |
| eth42 | siretart, yeah I've found such a line in faac_1.24-0.2.dsc | 04:48 |
| raphink | hmmm : ogra : the vlc tarball provided by my ISP has been modified quite a lot from the original vlc | 04:49 |
| eth42 | siretart: how do I start the build after removing the reference to libmp4-dev? | 04:49 |
| raphink | there's a 6MB diff | 04:49 |
| ogra | raphink, oh, its vlc ? | 04:49 |
| raphink | :s | 04:49 |
| siretart | eth42: type 'dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc' | 04:50 |
| eth42 | thanks! | 04:50 |
| siretart | the -us -uc is to supress signing the package | 04:50 |
| raphink | ogra : yes, my ISP uses VLC for its app. But they provide a modified version of VLC, with 6MB diff, although it works fine with the standard VLC too | 04:50 |
| ogra | then i'd rather try to get it in the vlc package we have and let it produce a differently named binary | 04:50 |
| ogra | i.e. vlc-webtv-<providername> | 04:51 |
| raphink | ogra : well I shall explain better | 04:51 |
| ogra | note that we have a target for dapper to aviod and remove duplication ... that should be taken into regard for universe as well where possible | 04:51 |
| raphink | ogra : the current vlc already contains lots of modifs from my ISP, and what is useful in this tarball to have the webtv service work is only a bashscript to launch VLC with special options and a folder containing pages to be shown on the TV, programmed in a kind of HTML | 04:52 |
| ogra | so aply this to our vlc and make it a new binary package then ... | 04:53 |
| zakame | er what bin makes `mkinstalldirs' again? | 04:53 |
| raphink | ogra : I should add this to the vlc source package and make it procude a different package from it, that's what you mean? | 04:53 |
| raphink | s/procude/produce/ | 04:54 |
| ogra | yes | 04:54 |
| raphink | hmmm | 04:54 |
| ogra | make it produce an addon package to vlc, or if necessary a new binary | 04:54 |
| ogra | (with different name) | 04:54 |
| raphink | why not package it separately and have it depend on VLC? | 04:55 |
| siretart | raphink: because we want to avoid duplication | 04:59 |
| raphink | nothing would be duplicate siretart | 05:00 |
| siretart | raphink: then I didn't get you | 05:00 |
| eth42 | siretart: thanks for the help -- I could successfully compile faac. But what does the message "dpkg-buildpackage: binary and diff upload (original source NOT included)" mean. Did it upload something?! | 05:00 |
| raphink | it's a bit complicate I reckon | 05:00 |
| tseng | eth42: it did not | 05:00 |
| eth42 | ok :-) | 05:00 |
| siretart | eth42: that means that you didn't download the source with `apt-get` *G* | 05:00 |
| siretart | eth42: seriously | 05:00 |
| raphink | siretart: my ISP has worked on modifying VLC to produce the Freeplayer for years. A few years ago, they have released a modified version of VLC that allowed to do so. Then VLC got that diffs in the main trunk. | 05:01 |
| siretart | eth42: dpkg-buildpackage (dpkg-source, to be exact) searches for a ../<packagename>_<verision>.orig.tar.gz | 05:01 |
| siretart | eth42: if it doesn't exist, you get that message | 05:01 |
| eth42 | ah, ok | 05:01 |
| raphink | siretart: now the service works with the current VLC provided by the VLC package, it just requires a small bash script to launch VLC with options and a folder that contains HTML pages used by the modem to browse the computer from the TV screen. | 05:02 |
| siretart | raphink: if it is just a small bash script, why not adding it to the existing vlc package? | 05:02 |
| raphink | siretart: still, the tarball provided by the ISP contains a VLC tarball, that is quite different from the one I got with apt-get source | 05:02 |
| raphink | siretart: I'll have to modify the vlc package source manually | 05:03 |
| raphink | if that's fine, then it's ok ;) | 05:03 |
| siretart | raphink: what modification would you need? what could break from that? | 05:03 |
| raphink | nothing could break siretart | 05:03 |
| raphink | I just need to add a freeplayer/ folder at the root of the vlc package, put the stuff in it | 05:04 |
| raphink | and add rules to debian/rules to install all this at the right place | 05:04 |
| siretart | raphink: you just said you needed to modfy something, what? | 05:04 |
| raphink | so something like /usr/share/freeplayer, with links to /usr/bin | 05:04 |
| siretart | raphink: or just the packaging? | 05:04 |
| raphink | siretart: I need to _add_ something to the source | 05:04 |
| raphink | that's what I mean | 05:04 |
| raphink | package source that is | 05:05 |
| siretart | raphink: ah, thats fine, just add it to the package :) | 05:05 |
| raphink | ok | 05:05 |
| raphink | :) | 05:05 |
| raphink | siretart: but if someone updates vlc, there's a chance the freeplayer is lost on the way, no? | 05:06 |
| siretart | raphink: if you document that in debian/changelog, there should be no problem | 05:07 |
| siretart | raphink: because when merging, we look for such changes | 05:07 |
| raphink | ok | 05:07 |
| raphink | yep | 05:07 |
| siretart | raphink: does vlc upstream know about this script? perhaps they could add it to their distribution? | 05:08 |
| raphink | siretart: I bet they know about it, since the current vlc was largely modified to work with it | 05:08 |
| siretart | well, perhaps it will show up in the next release then. | 05:09 |
| zakame | gn8 all :D | 05:09 |
| siretart | gn8 zakame | 05:09 |
| raphink | I don't think so siretart | 05:09 |
| raphink | it's only used by my ISP so far | 05:10 |
| raphink | since it works with the modem they build | 05:10 |

| === amoll [n=amoll@balrog.bioinf.uni-sb.de] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| chillywilly | yea I did apt-get source before, need to look at the rules file yet | 05:30 |
| amoll | hi there, i would like to add a deb package to the Ubuntu repositiory, could you please tell me which person to connect? | 05:32 |
| chillywilly | --with-gd=shared,/usr --enable-gd-native-ttf | 05:32 |
| siretart | amoll: please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/REVU | 05:32 |
| chillywilly | not sure if that buids the "internal" gd lib but I'll rtfm ;) | 05:32 |
| siretart | amoll: in short: if you have a new package, you need to show it to us | 05:35 |
| siretart | amoll: then we can review and upload it for you to the archive | 05:35 |
| raphink | siretart: after adding freeplayer/, I get a very predictable error : unrepresentable changes to source | 05:35 |
| siretart | amoll: what package do you have? | 05:35 |
| raphink | how can I avoide that? | 05:35 |
| tseng | chillywilly: it says shared | 05:35 |
| siretart | raphink: you added binary data to the package | 05:35 |
| siretart | raphink: don't do that :) | 05:35 |
| tseng | chillywilly: iirc the other flag is --with-gd-internal, see ./configure --help | 05:36 |
| raphink | where do I add it siretart then? | 05:36 |
| tseng | maybe --with-gd=internal | 05:36 |
| siretart | raphink: you told before you just want to add a bash script, no? doesn't sound like binary data | 05:36 |
| chillywilly | tseng: bah, I should beat someone for requiring the internal gd lib ;) | 05:36 |
| raphink | there's a script _and_ a folder containing html, pdf and images | 05:37 |
| tseng | chillywilly: eh..? | 05:37 |
| siretart | raphink: how big is it? | 05:37 |
| tseng | chillywilly: didnt we just say we dont | 05:37 |
| raphink | so the issue is with the images and pdf | 05:37 |
| raphink | not big | 05:37 |
| amoll | a molecular viewer: www.ballview.org | 05:37 |
| chillywilly | tseng: my comment was the people wo wrote this PHP app should be beaten for requiring the internal gd lib | 05:37 |
| raphink | siretart: the whole directory I added is 248 KB | 05:38 |
| chillywilly | who* | 05:38 |
| tseng | chillywilly: i see. | 05:38 |
| tseng | shared libs are elite | 05:38 |
| siretart | raphink: which I'd consider as rather big | 05:38 |
| raphink | siretart: the pdf being 158KB | 05:38 |
| raphink | the images are very small (about 1kB each) | 05:39 |
| siretart | raphink: the problem is that diff cannot represent binary 'changes' | 05:39 |
| raphink | yes | 05:39 |
| raphink | I understand that | 05:40 |

| amoll | the binaries of the viewer are available under GPL | 05:58 |
| amoll | the library unter LGPL | 05:58 |

| Kyral | Unless we put it in Multiverse | 05:58 |
| === Kyral sighs | ||
| azeem | amoll: and the source of the viewer? | 05:58 |
| azeem | amoll: or is that the library? | 05:58 |
| Kyral | I'll take myself out of the convo now | 05:58 |
| amoll | azeem: its in the library | 05:58 |
| Hieronymus | Kyral: if it's GPL, you can just redistribute, or what are you talking about? | 05:58 |
| azeem | ah | 05:58 |
| IzzyCC | Seveas i figured there would be more people willing to get some side money that are active here, than there filled with people who are as newbie as me | 05:59 |
| azeem | amoll: how can you license the binary different to the source, or did I misunderstand you? | 05:59 |
| Seveas | IzzyCC, there are lots of smart people there too, just wait and ask again later | 05:59 |
| Kyral | Hieronymus: I mean that it would bypass the registration | 05:59 |
| Seveas | of ask on the mailinglist | 05:59 |
| Kyral | Completely since people could also go to packages.ubuntu.com and download it there | 05:59 |
| IzzyCC | Seveas aye, thanks | 05:59 |
| amoll | azeem: well the idea is that the binary can be distributed freely | 06:00 |
| azeem | amoll: that wouldn't change with LGPL? | 06:00 |
| Kyral | The source has to be under GPL too right? | 06:00 |
| Kyral | or... | 06:00 |
| amoll | azeem: well that wasnt my idea, I am not sure | 06:00 |
| Kyral | Wouldn't be the same as SunJava? | 06:01 |
| azeem | if you distribute that binary under the GPL, you have to offer the people who download it the source under the GPL as well | 06:01 |
| amoll | well the viewer has still some source left, which isnt in the library. I guess this code could be distributed under the GPL | 06:02 |
| amoll | but to use it, it would depend on the library, which is under LGPL | 06:02 |
| azeem | ah, ok | 06:02 |
| azeem | that makes sense | 06:02 |
| Kyral | Whats the difference between GPL and LGPL anyway? | 06:02 |
| azeem | but then you need to offer that GPL source somewhere | 06:02 |
| Hieronymus | Kyral: LGPL allows linking to proprietary software | 06:02 |

| === FireRabbit [n=FireRabb@unaffiliated/firerabbit] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||

| Kyral | LGPL | 06:03 |
| Hieronymus | ehm, hasn't amol said three times now that the viewer is GPL and the library is LGPL. What's the fuss about? | 06:03 |

| === IzzyCC [n=Izzy@pcp0011143182pcs.levtwn01.pa.comcast.net] has left #ubuntu-motu [] | ||
| amoll | of course you can get it, but you have to register for free | 06:04 |
| amoll | is that a serious problem? | 06:04 |
| Kyral | and if the lib is in the repos you would be able to bypass the registration | 06:05 |
| Hieronymus | Kyral: so _what_? | 06:05 |
| Kyral | it seems like that is unwanted thats what ;P | 06:05 |
| azeem | amoll: no, but you need to understand that other people can just distribute the source/binary to others, without registration | 06:05 |
| azeem | like Ubuntu/Debian would | 06:05 |
| Kyral | or Gentoo... | 06:05 |
| Kyral | I personally never understood why people are so concerned about who is using it. To me no feedback means its working. Its when it doesn't work is when I want to here about it | 06:07 |

| JohnnyMast | im gonna redo the steps and report back to you if it fails, its not the first time something fails on dapper for me | 07:09 |
| siretart | JohnnyMast: the wiki mentions that it may be necessary to create a breezy chroot first, and upgrade that to dapper then | 07:15 |
| siretart | JohnnyMast: I have no idea if this is true today, and this can change with every day. | 07:16 |
| JohnnyMast | well let me try that | 07:16 |
| LaserJock | that is what I had to do but that was a while ago | 07:16 |
| JohnnyMast | it never hurts to try | 07:17 |
| LaserJock | I think that debootstrap didn't work for a while on dapper | 07:17 |
| LaserJock | but I don't know if that has been fixed | 07:17 |
| siretart | LaserJock: this is because of broken dependencies. they can get broken and fixed with every upload of a 'base package' (packages installed by debootstrap) | 07:18 |
| LaserJock | siretart: ah, makes sense | 07:18 |
| LaserJock | is REVUDay over? | 07:19 |
| JohnnyMast | well, its building a breezy chroot now. If its done i will check the the base.tgz file is there if it is i will follow the wiki steps to update to dapper | 07:19 |

| Hieronymus | I'm making a .deb for bulldozer, an extension for nautilus which integrates build systems (make, ant etc.). If you use a format bulldozer knows but you haven't installed, like ant, it will give an error. Two questions: 1. Should I Depend: on these packages? 2. Two of these supported build systems are maven and maven2, but they're not in Ubuntu. What should I do? | 07:51 |
| JohnnyMast | pack them as well ?? :p | 07:53 |
| Hieronymus | ehh.. :p | 07:54 |
| === hunger_ [n=hunger@p54A61489.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| Hieronymus | JohnnyMast: I picked this program because it's small and easy, and I don't feel like figuring out this maven thing ;-) | 07:57 |
| JohnnyMast | well you could depend on the package, how important is it ? | 07:58 |
| Hieronymus | JohnnyMast: I could depend on ant and nant, but not on maven and maven2. | 07:59 |
| JohnnyMast | but you could reconment it for later | 08:00 |
| JohnnyMast | because i get from this both arn on debian ? | 08:00 |
| JohnnyMast | *arnt | 08:00 |
| Hieronymus | What happens if you choose to build an {ant,nant,maven,maven2} file is you get an error because child process {ant,nant,maven,maven2} couldn't be executed | 08:00 |
| Hieronymus | JohnnyMast: maven and maven2 aren't in Debian | 08:01 |
| JohnnyMast | well if you depend it will only fail on maven and maven2 | 08:01 |
| JohnnyMast | well thats why i sayed you could reconment it and see if its possible to add the packages later on | 08:02 |
| === at1as [n=at1as@24-247-15-243.static.aldl.mi.charter.com] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| Hieronymus | but then again, should I depend on it? Most people won't want to install nant and ant | 08:02 |
| jamessan|work | could you convince upstream to gracefully handle a missing binary? | 08:03 |
| Hieronymus | jamessan|work: what is gracefully? | 08:04 |
| JohnnyMast | maybe they do already | 08:04 |
| JohnnyMast | Hieronymus: "goed afhandelen" | 08:04 |
| Hieronymus | JohnnyMast: I know what the words mean, just not what jamessan|work means | 08:04 |
| jamessan|work | Hieronymus: having them detect that the binary is missing and give a nice message instead of just failing | 08:05 |
| jamessan|work | If they already do that, then I'd say you could package it as is and Recommend the build systems | 08:05 |
| Hieronymus | http://members.home.nl/jeroen-91/temp/Schermafdruk-Fout.png | 08:05 |
| Hieronymus | basically it says 'error, you can't execute target build, because child process ant failed' | 08:06 |
| jamessan|work | that seems to be that path that file-roller took. the common archival formats are depended on and the less common ones are just recommended | 08:06 |
| Hieronymus | jamessan|work: okay, I'll stick with recommended | 08:07 |
| jamessan|work | yeah, I wouldn't call that an extrememly user-friendly error message, but they may argue that it is good enough for people that are attempting to compile software | 08:07 |
| Hieronymus | but what about maven and maven2? Can I recommend them even though they don't exist in debian and ubuntu (yet) | 08:07 |
| jamessan|work | You could mention that they are supported in the long package description and when/if they are included in Debian you would include them in the recommendations | 08:08 |
| jamessan|work | s!Debian!Debian/Ubuntu! | 08:08 |
| jamessan|work | in fact, I'd highly recommend taking a look at "apt-cache show file-roller" for inspiration | 08:09 |

| lucas | debian/rules is a makefile | 10:49 |
| lucas | so the GNU make manual should have the answer | 10:49 |
| Mithrandir | it's an immediate assignment vs non-immediate. | 10:50 |
| lucas | if I remember correctly, it has to do with how rules are overriden by included files | 10:50 |
| JohnnyMast | does revu autmaticly build the uploaded packages ? | 10:50 |
| LaserJock | Mithrandir and lucas: thanks | 10:51 |
| ajmitch | JohnnyMast: no, that's unsafe to do | 10:51 |
| ajmitch | since we allow plenty of people to upload to the box | 10:51 |
| JohnnyMast | aah ok thanks | 10:51 |
| JohnnyMast | i saw it will be optional in revu2 | 10:52 |
| dholbach | have a nive evening | 10:52 |
| ajmitch | JohnnyMast: it'll be as optional as it is now - except more people (MOTUs) can get a build done | 10:53 |
| ajmitch | at the moment people in the right group on the revu server can run pbuilder | 10:53 |
