[12:02] you mean the latest source did not produce any bin ? [12:03] so the bins are from the latest but one source [12:03] ;) [12:03] the source code in the source package for pktsetup is an older version...only has two help lines in usage() that it prints with you give --help... if I run pktsetup --help, it gives more help and reports a newer version [12:03] ? [12:03] no, I mean the bin from the binary package was NOT compiled from this source ;) [12:03] yes [12:03] but the bin could have been built from an older version and the latest src could have not produced any bin [12:03] this doesn't seem to be the case though [12:03] no... the bin is built from a newer version [12:04] ok [12:04] that's weird [12:04] yea [12:04] what does p.u.c say about it?

[05:15] or worse, the forums [05:16] for a lot of people it's hard to tell the difference between a bug report and a support request [05:16] scared of bugzilla/malone? [05:16] most computer users are used to "it's not working" being their own fault [05:17] which makes a forum an appropriate place to seek help [05:17] desrt: I agree [05:17] I am still that way [05:18] anyone else notice the firefox in dapper is HORRIBLY slow at redrawing it's window when previewing edits to the ubuntu wiki? tab to a terminal and back, or worse, drag the terminal window over the dapper window, and holy moley it lags! [05:18] I at least like to confirm that it's not me before I do a bug report [05:18] psusi; sounds like you're not using accelerated X drivers [05:18] psusi; fglrx is completely fixed now, fwiw [05:18] dereks_, nope... it's accelerated... not using fglrx, but have dri and mesa working [05:19] firefox is nice and fast otherwise, it is only when redrawing uncovered areas on the wiki preview page [05:19] psusi; that has very little to do with 2D accel [05:19] scrolling the preview page is plenty fast... doesn't even make my cpu bump up speed [05:19] desrt, dri has everything to do with 2d accel === desrt raises an eyebrow [05:19] no. it seriously does not :) [05:20] ummm.... I'm prety darn sure it does [05:20] dri is when libGL connects directly to the kernel [05:20] (ie: bypasses the X server hence "direct") [05:20] it's also for 2d apps to do the same, is it not? [05:20] no. [05:20] 2d apps always render through X [05:20] well it sure as hell makes 2d go faster when you turn on dri ;) [05:21] possibly because you're also enabling XRENDER acceleration at the same time [05:23] well, got any 2d speed tests to check it? scrolling works nice and smooth... might be that firefox scrolls sanely, but whenever it has part of the window uncovered, it repains the ENTIRE page, and this is a rather complex page... so it may be making a crap-ton of calls to the X server [05:23] cause it does seem to be the X server that is actually getting bogged down [05:23] uhm [05:24] there is something [05:24] xperftest or something [05:24] i don't know the exact name === Mez pokes his package onto revu [05:28] anyone fancy reviewing [05:28] hrm... yea... I think it is actually the X server that is bogging down... because if I tab to firefox, then immediately tab out again, the tab lags [05:29] try out fglrx and see if the situation improves [05:29] don't want to run proprietary code [05:29] if it does, consider filing a bug against the dri driver [05:29] arf [05:30] intuition knocked again: [05:30] getting rid of fglrx so mesa worked right was a pain [05:30] i remember :) [05:30] but that was your own fault :) [05:30] hehe.... [05:30] the ubuntu fglrx packages install cleanly [05:30] do they now? they didn't for a while [05:30] as of today they do [05:30] i said so ^^ up there :p [05:31] dapper is actually working great right now [05:31] i'm pretty impressed with how rapidly it's coming together [05:32] a lot of really nice things have happened in this release [05:32] ok... nevermind... it seems dri broke somewhere ;) [05:32] turn your back for 5 seconds and it breaks... sheehs... heh... ;) [05:32] there's your problem :) [05:33] desrt, I would be really pleased if dmraid could make it into dapper so I can cleanly install it [05:33] file an RFE on bugzilla? [05:33] if it's small, easy, and has a reasonable use it will probably get in === abelcheung_ is now known as abelcheung [05:33] I filed a bug when I first installed ubuntu breezy preview... it is currently assigned to infinity I believe [05:34] fabione also had a hand in it, but seems to have more important things to work on [05:34] he build the package from source and put it in universe before breezy was released [05:34] I ended up making some initramfs scripts to go with it and wrote a howto on the wiki [05:35] works fine for me and a few others, but the integration has not moved anywhere in months [05:35] hmm [05:35] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FakeRaidHowto if you are interested [05:35] nothx :) [05:35] ;) [05:35] my ubuntu install is not valuable [05:36] and my home directory is backed up [05:36] which reminds me === desrt makes a backup :) [05:36] hehe [05:36] backing up will be nicer once I finish this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PacketCD [05:37] i can't imagine backing up to cd [05:37] that would be pain [05:37] and why the hell does revu allways say access is forbidden when I try to look at the source.changes? [05:38] desrt, it would? drag and drop your documents is a pain? === hub [n=hub@toronto-hs-216-138-231-194.s-ip.magma.ca] has joined #ubuntu-motu [05:39] full system backups are nice, but your averge user just likes to drag and drop a copy of their important files to a disc [05:39] I find that 'average user' argument really annoying [05:40] I've known lots of users, and my assessment of the average is they want to not do backups manually, just to set it up once, and then have a button to press that does it and /tells/ them it did it [05:41] ya [05:41] some people like that... some people would rather have a disc they can hold in their hot little hands and know their data is on it and they can open it in another computer ;) [05:41] if i were an average user i'd have to agree with lifeless :p [05:41] i like the idea of an external firewire drive [05:42] it's large and i can unplug it [05:42] for full system backups? yea... that's great [05:42] unplugging is important [05:42] aye [05:42] it means that if my computer explodes in the worst way possible it still can't take the backup with it [05:43] well, as long as the backup is off site... the computer could burn the building down and the firewire drive with it ;) [05:43] rsync snapshot backups look really nice [05:43] psusi: they get a disk [05:43] tand they can [05:43] *and they can* [05:43] if you have a removable drive with more space than your main disk [05:43] psusi: no, you are making assumptions that were not present in what I said [05:44] or it can be on a remote server... handy for those peskey fires [05:44] huh? [05:44] I was still talking about rsync snapshot backups... I have no idea what you said ;) [05:44] psusi; ya. rsync is what i use [05:44] it's bloody quick [05:44] it takes about 10 seconds if nothing has changed [05:44] (and obviously longer if things have) [05:45] desrt, I'd still like to have a chattr attribute or something for copy on write... then you could do rsync snapshot type backups on one disk, without wasting half the space [05:45] psusi; but then you lose the advantage of the backup in the case your computer goes bonkers [05:45] i want my backup offline, k thx [05:45] desrt, yes... but you get the history without having to buy more hardware ;) [05:46] i also want to protect against media faulure [05:46] and that implies redundancy [05:46] ideally, I'd like to have copy on write on all the time... then make periodic backups to removable media [05:46] psusi: you talked about drag and drop as what the average user *wants* [05:46] psusi: I dont think thats accurate === Yagisan used to have two backup locations, gmailfs + dvd - but gmailfs died :( [05:47] gmailfs is an amusing concept [05:47] lifeless, why not? from what I have seen, the _average_ person ( not the average linux user ) basically (only) understands copying things to removable media [05:47] Yagisan, hey... welcome back [05:48] desrt: I have so many accounts, I thought why not. I encrypt my backups anyway .. [05:48] heh [05:48] Yagisan, you ever build my defrag package? I was playing with it last night... kept giving it different lists of files to store in order hehe... [05:48] that's an amusing concept [05:48] use a cluster of gmail accounts as a large disk [05:48] psusi: not for long - I just stepped in, saw my name lit up, and have to leave in few minutes again [05:48] Yagisan, btw... make sure you use the -p option... it defaults to only use 2 MB of ram to move data with... goes MUCH faster if you give it more [05:50] psusi: I have only /boot and / on ext3, the rest are jfs - so I don't have much to defrag. btw on ext2/3 it will *never* completely defrag, due to the way ext2/3 stores files [05:51] Yagisan, well, assuming it is a very large file, then yea... it can't be stored without being broken up to fit around the inode and bitmap blocks [05:51] so do you guys use tar when you are backing up? [05:51] it's fun seeing fsck report 0.0% fragmentation though ;) [05:52] desrt: I was wondering if I could raid my gmailfs systems, but gmailfs stopped working before I could try - I have 3 active + 150 invites, so it could be a fun thing to try [05:52] LaserJock, I do... but I see uses for rsync snapshots too... [05:52] Yagisan, rofl [05:52] LaserJock: I use sbackup in universe - but only because I converted my network to ltsp based, so I only need to admin 1 box :) [05:53] I have only a few linux boxes and ~ 4 iMac OSX boxes that I would like to backup but I really don't know what the best way to back them up is [05:54] right now it is pretty scattered, I just tar /home and try to have at least two copies on two different machines [05:54] psusi: I thnk you are insulting average, and substituting 'new' [05:54] lifeless, I don't... I think you are thinking of linux users, which are not average ;) [05:55] LaserJock: as you get bigger, bacula is good - even does non-linux systems [05:55] LaserJock, I'd periodically backup the system with tar, and rsync snapshot /home back and forth between machines [05:56] psusi: no, I'm no [05:56] *t* [05:56] lifeless, do you know a single average user who actually even makes backups? [05:56] I rather have cron do my backup for me - every day at 5:30 it should be done, and every 21 days that needs to be a full backup [05:56] psusi: All my clients do [05:57] average windows user who couldn't explain to you the difference between sdram and rambus mind you [05:57] psusi: just think about this for a few minutes - how many people start using computers and in (saY) 5 years still dont understand the idea of 'backup software' [05:57] Yagisan, personal or corporate? [05:57] psusi: they are far from technical - it's a hard sell for me to get them as clients considering what I actually do [05:57] psusi: mixed, mainly small business though [05:57] Yagisan, incremental backups for 21 days? with tar? [05:58] psusi: now, if that amount is < 50%, AND even a small fraction of users that start using computers dont stop using them, then the average user MUST understand backup software, by definition [05:58] psusi: it's like 100mb a day on incremental [05:58] lifeless, they might understand it, but I know virtually nobody who backs up their home computer regularly [05:58] psusi: the difference between sdram and rambus is irrelevant to everyone except when they are upgrading, and then they will ask around. backups however matter all the time, so I dont see why you bring that up [05:58] Yagisan, then you're dealing with their IT guys are't you? not average users [05:59] Yagisan, incremental backups with tar for 21 days is insane... if you loose one of those daily backups in the middle, you can't restore to current [05:59] psusi: small businesses like that don't necessarily have an IT guy [06:00] psusi: I am the it guy [06:00] psusi: It is also backed up to 3 locations [06:00] psusi: short story, there are several guys here disagreeing with your defn of average. [06:00] psusi: if you want to say 'new users that dont have a clue - fine, just dont claim they are 'average''. [06:00] yea... your average buisiness person understands they need an IT guy to do backups... now how many of them backup their home computers? [06:00] psusi: 1 is off site, 1 is onsite on dvd, 1 is on a network box [06:01] psusi: bigger workflow == shorter backup period [06:01] how many of these average buisness users who understand the need to backup actually do backup their home computers? [06:02] psusi: most of them - especially after I tell them what data recovery costs [06:02] psusi: Of course, other non-ubuntu systems don't ship with a decent default backup system ... [06:02] I don't know a single person who makes regular backups of their home computer [06:02] Yagisan: your doing a lot better than me, I just backup when I'm feeling bored (every couple of months I would guess), and I don't do any incremental ;-) [06:03] I love the way you are moving the goalposts [06:03] not one [06:03] you started out talking about 'wanting drag and drop' [06:03] now you are talking about who actually *does* backup, and these are pretty much unrelated. [06:03] yea.... because it would help users backup their data ;) [06:04] it is quit relavent to the discussion at hand... average users don't backup [06:04] psusi: and I do, so your point is? [06:04] ajmitch, my point is that your average home windows user does not backup their system... but they do understand how to copy important files to a disc to put in a safe place, and if doing that were easy, they would be more inclined to do so [06:05] hence https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PacketCD [06:05] psusi: maybe I'm showing my ignorance here but can't you do that with Nautilus [06:05] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup [06:06] psusi: meh, backup windows is incredibly easy, there is a wizard to do it for just their own files [06:06] psusi: ease is -not- the problem! [06:06] LaserJock, sort of... [06:06] LaserJock, nautilus appends new sessions to the disc... can't remove stuff without reformatting [06:07] ah, I see [06:07] plus you can't write to it normally from the command line... i.e. you can't tar -czlf / /media/cdrecorder/backup.tar.gz [06:07] LaserJock: well, not so long ago I felt the pain of complete system meltdown, with 1 backup failing to restore. [06:07] with packet writing, you can [06:08] lifeless, if it is so easy then why don't people do it? because they have to find the wizzard... they already understand how to copy files around [06:09] ajmitch: I think sbackup does what is listed on your wiki page [06:09] Yagisan: probably, but it's not my spec :) [06:10] psusi: your logic is now inconsistent [06:11] psusi: as windows comes with packetcd support built in and AFAICT this has not changed things [06:11] oh [06:11] inconsistent logics? [06:11] i'm totally in on this convo [06:11] psusi: 1) does your packetcd thing work with dvds, 2) will windows/mac/netware read those discs ? [06:11] are we assuming the axiom of choice? [06:11] lifeless, no, windows does not [06:11] brb [06:11] desrt: hell no, predicate logic need not apply [06:11] you need incd or something to get packet mode in windows [06:12] lifeless; ? [06:12] lifeless; you do not need the axiom of choice to have a meaningful predicate logic === zakame [n=zak@ubuntu/member/zakame] has joined #ubuntu-motu [06:12] Yagisan, I believe yes on both [06:12] lifeless; hell.. you don't even need ZF [06:12] meh, I'm too tired and grumpy for this. psusi I support packetcd as something to implement and make easy, but if you invoke 'average user' be VERY VERY VERY careful to get your facts straight [06:12] hi all === seth [n=seth@asmallorange.com] has joined #ubuntu-motu [06:13] re [06:13] I just remember several users ago it seemed like everyone would copy their work to floppies at the end of the day for safe keeping [06:13] they don't do that anymore [06:14] floppies? for safe keeping? === desrt giggles [06:15] my sister had a college class in effective web communication [06:15] the teacher mandated the use of floppy disks because she didn't trust usb keys [06:15] i told my sister to expect the worst [06:15] rofl [06:15] the worst, of course, occured. [06:15] that's funny [06:15] well, no... it's sad [06:16] usb sticks are way more reliable than floppies ever were [06:16] this is why i find funny [06:16] the amount of memory i've casually amassed on my person [06:16] I hate floppies... wrote a disk driver for them once... that hardware is hell [06:16] 1gb on my keychain [06:16] desrt: Oh no, you couldn't find replacement 8" disks ;) [06:16] 1gb in my vorbis player [06:16] 1gb in my camera [06:16] i routinely have 3gb of memory on my body without even thinking about it [06:16] psusi: me too - I did min in x86 asm. I though it was rather fun [06:16] s/min/mine [06:17] can you even imagine how ridiculous it would be to carry around 3gb on floppy? [06:17] desrt, and it wasn't that long ago that a 40 MB hard drive was gigantic ;) [06:17] you'd definitely be aware that you were doing it :) [06:17] my camera takes pictures that don't even fit on a floppy :p === Yagisan still has a working 40mb hard drive [06:17] Yagisan, I nearly blew a gasket after I wrote it to detect the disc using the query command I found in the specs... then found out that NO disks on the market support it [06:18] which is why you have to manually tell the bios what kind of floppy there is, if any... and the OS believes it... even if it's a lie [06:19] yet [06:19] linux can detect them [06:19] psusi: oh - I never had specs - I reverse engineered the bios so I could add support for 3.5" drives on a 286 that didn't support them [06:19] psusi: does you packetcd stuff work on a multi-user system ? [06:20] desrt, no, it can't... it uses the info provided in the bios [06:20] oh [06:20] believe me... I pulled my hair out for days over that [06:20] how... unlinuxy [06:21] no disks support the required commands to detect... and both linux and windows grab the bios info during boot and run with it [06:21] special. [06:22] writing the code to control the dma in a 32bit os was especially fun... heh... [06:22] dma used to be funny :) [06:22] desrt: It's "fun" to play with floppys. Esp when you adjust tract and sector size to squeeze more data on is interesting too [06:22] s/tract/track === desrt remembers how linux could have 1.9mb floppies [06:23] yea.... 1920 kb with mixed sector sizes [06:23] desrt: 1.64 is the most you can reliably fit on a disk, and still have other systems read it [06:23] but couldn't boot from them because the bios can only read the standard 18 512 byte sectors per track [06:24] psusi: Yagisan: psusi: does you packetcd stuff work on a multi-user system ? [06:24] but you could format track0 normally and the other 79 with MSS... and have the boot code in track0 talk directly to the FDC... heh [06:24] Yagisan, yes... had to fix a few bugs in the kernel and the format utilities to make that work [06:24] Yagisan, in a sane manner that is [06:25] described it all on the spec page [06:25] psusi: so multiple users can write to those disks at the same time ? [06:25] Yagisan, ohh... well... yea... the way I got it set up now is a regular desktop user is going to have it auto mount with the uid= and gid= params set to their id [06:26] which will cause the owner on disk for files they create/own to be set to -1 [06:26] which causes them to be owned by whoever is specified by the uid=/gid= params when mounted, so it can be used in another computer sanely, or by another user [06:27] but if you really want to, you can do away with the mount options and multiple users can access it at once, and the real ids will be saved [06:27] psusi: brb - but I'd like to talk about it more when I get back === trulux [n=lorenzo@unaffiliated/trulux] has joined #ubuntu-motu === jonshea [n=jonshea@vpn-84-65.dartmouth.edu] has joined #ubuntu-motu [06:32] re [06:33] Does anyone know if there is a particular reason that mpeg2vidcodec isn't included as a package anywhere? Are the licensing issues? [06:34] psusi: I wonder about the automount feature. eg on my ltsp system, when you put a cd/dvd in, it appears on everyones desktop [06:34] jonshea: does a package exist ? [06:34] ltsp? [06:35] psusi: linux terminal server project. it's in breezy, and edubuntu uses it extensivley [06:35] Yagisan, currently the automounter sets the uid/gid options when it auto mounts external media like cds and usb sticks, so only one user will have access to it, assuming it is fat, iso9660, or udf [06:35] Yagisan: Not as far as I can tell, which is about 30 minutes worth of looking. I'd love to have mpeg2vidcodec, because I use it with imagemagick convert. [06:35] hrm... sounds very cool [06:35] sigh [06:36] psusi: I use it to make all those old p2/k6 boxes useful [06:36] nifty [06:36] I can install from source just fine, but obviously packages are nicer. I I believe that fink has a package for it. [06:36] jonshea: you'll need to package it yourself then [06:37] Yagisan, how the heck does that work? does each login get its own gnome-volume-manager? === zenrox [n=zenrox@71.115.198.118] has joined #ubuntu-motu [06:37] psusi: yep - I have one overpowerful amd64 box - and all the pc's people would chuck away hanging off it - rather cool, and easy to manage === zakame [n=zak@210.213.69.58] has joined #ubuntu-motu [06:38] Yagisan, normally g-v-m sees the disc and mounts it... in a multi user environment like that you'd want it mounted only once... and either set to be accessible to everyone, or set to actually use the permissions on the disc.. [06:38] I suspect I can handle that. Thanks. [06:38] psusi: each log in gets there own everything - but most of the code and data can be shared in memory [06:39] sigh [06:39] hammer, please [06:39] Yagisan, if multiple g-v-m's are running, then won't they race to be the first to mount the media? [06:39] ajmitch: there there, it will be ok [06:39] Yagisan: #ubuntu drones... [06:39] ajmitch: I know - I avoid there, and the forums now. I learnt my lesson [06:40] yeah [06:40] gaah [06:40] ajmitch: I got sick of being flamed for trying to stop them breaking the boxes [06:40] someone who's convinced that only by having a fully 64-bit system without 32-bit exe support in the kernel will be faster [06:41] psusi: I don't know - I've never noticed a problem so far [06:41] ajmitch: tell them racing stripes will make their pc faster too [06:41] Yagisan, which uid owns the files on the filesystem? [06:41] hehe === psusi loves to go up to those idiots with the after market spoiler bolted on their trunks and ask them why? [06:42] i suppose having both types of systems at hand would be essential to understanding the prob [06:42] they usually respond by saying it improves the drag coefficient... then they get all confused when I ask them what a drag coefficient is... [06:42] Yagisan, so... which uid owns the files on the cd? [06:43] psusi: I'm looking for a cd - just a second [06:44] Yagisan, and I guess what you were interested in is what happens if you were to insert a packet mode cd? if you want to you can have each user be able to have a home directory on it they have own ;) [06:44] psusi: I just tossed a cd in, and apparently root owns it === ajmitch breaks down & cries [06:44] aw [06:44] there there honey [06:44] I think I should leave #ubuntu soon, I don't have the temperament for it :) === Yagisan gives ajmitch a strong drink [06:45] thanks Yagisan [06:45] ajmitch: are you a mod there - ban everyone for a few hours ;) that will make you feel better [06:45] I need to leave #ubuntu b/c there's a guy with the nick sethk, and people ALWAYS ping me instead of him :P [06:46] ajmitch: childish yes - but still good fun [06:46] haha [06:46] it's a very tempting thought [06:46] Yagisan, did that answer your question?

[11:31] \sh: nope, on windows it is seperate libs [11:32] \sh: wine has gone the same way, 64bit wine only runs 64bit apps [11:32] \sh: so I need wine + wine64 [11:32] <\sh> Yagisan: i think that's the word at ms for "separate libs" ,) === marcin` [n=user@194.114.146.58] has joined #ubuntu-motu [11:33] \sh: Oh, I thought you meant something like the WoW thunker [11:33] <\sh> Yagisan: well it works the same way as "linux32" [11:34] <\sh> the problem is, to get it build on amd64 as 32bit app [11:34] <\sh> without changing anything on the buildd [11:34] \sh: nope, better idea [11:34] \sh: build as 32bit on i386, repack for amd64 [11:34] \sh: see zsnes in revu for proof of concept [11:35] <\sh> Yagisan: argl.. [11:36] \sh: no one has a better solution, until then, I'd like to go with that [11:36] <\sh> Yagisan: are you sure, it's in law with infinity and lamont? [11:37] \sh: it's from the same source, it just needs to successfully be built on i386, either in pbuilder, or by a buildd first [11:37] <\sh> and that is something we can't see somehow.. [11:38] \sh: it should be fine, but if you have a better idea, I'd love to hear it. [11:39] \sh: we need multi-arch, but it does not yet exist, and we are a pure64 distro. cross compiles are failing for every test case I try [11:40] \sh: next best thing is uuencoded i386 debs, repacked with support libs [11:40] <\sh> well...I just have a look on ubuntu-fetch-* [11:41] \sh: ?? [11:41] <\sh> you assume that the zsnes package in the archive is already the i386 binary package of the latest source [11:41] <\sh> Yagisan: I just read your zsnes debian dir :) [11:41] \sh: I can't have network access at build time :( so I "assume" you built it ok first yes [11:42] \sh: you can pbuilder it first, and stick the deb in /local/pkgs and it won't download from a mirror [11:43] \sh: but I don't think that directory is in the diff, as it was empty when I made the package [11:44] <\sh> Yagisan: yes...but how to do it on the buildd? 1. there is no network 2. how do you get the i386 packages into the debian/pkgs dir, without manual intervention? [11:45] \sh: there is a little issue of scheduling it, a bit like with OOo [11:46] \sh: It was fully automatic, but Mithrandir said that was a bad idea(tm) - see the comments on ia32libs-universe [11:49] \sh: :( file can't tell the difference between win64 and win32 apps [11:50] <\sh> well...back to the zsnes package...I read that you want to have local packages already in the source, means you have to compile first for i386 and then moving the binary packages into the source tree and compile again for amd64 [11:50] <\sh> or you image you have during build time network access...which is sometimes not true [11:51] \sh: yes, the multiple build. Intended as a stop-gap until multi-arch. The is no network access during build. [11:51] s/The/there === irvin [n=irvin@ubuntu/member/irvin] has joined #ubuntu-motu [11:52] \sh: If done in a pbuilder, the first build won't affect the buildds, and only requires one source upload [11:52] <\sh> Yagisan: ok..so we are stuck with the multiple build..how can we achieve this with only one source package...and thinking about building i386 packages first, then downloading those packages, putting them again into the same source package and reupload the source [11:53] Yagisan: what are you trying to achieve? [11:53] <\sh> Mithrandir: wine for 64bit with 32bit support [11:53] <\sh> Mithrandir: compiled out of one source package [11:53] G'day Mithrandir - want to run some i386 only apps on amd64, while waiting for multi-arch [11:54] so you want a 32 bit wine repackaged for amd64? [11:55] \sh: I build the i386 package in pbuilder first, copy the resulting deb to /local/pkg, run the ubuntu-fetch-and-build script, repack source, and send to buildd [11:55] Yagisan: _no_. [11:55] <\sh> Yagisan: which is not secure :) [11:55] Mithrandir: yes, but there is also a wine64 that only runs win64 apps [11:55] <\sh> Yagisan: i don't trust compiles from random hosts :) [11:55] Yagisan: you are to take the binaries which comes from the buildd if you do repackaging like that. [11:56] Yagisan: just build the _amd64.debs when doing the 32 bit build, then [11:57] Mithrandir: how ? [11:57] <\sh> well, I think then about a wine-compat32 package [11:57] \sh: already done [11:57] Mithrandir: if I can build amd64 debs from i386, I'm very happy [11:58] \sh: you are talking about the 32bit support libs for wine right ? [12:00] Mithrandir: would it work if I swapped the control file during build ? [12:00] Yagisan: possibly [12:00] <\sh> ok....time for the interview :) [12:01] Mithrandir: I tried cross compile first, but that failed.

I guess they are independent of each other [08:47] LaserJock: yep, tiber is a server on it's own ;) [08:49] LaserJock: mail with password sent [08:50] got it, thanks so much [08:50] np === Tonio_ [n=tonio@tonio.planetemu.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu [08:54] re === Gloubiboulga is now known as Gloubi_Aw === pappan [n=garbage@bgepxyout-02.asiapac.hp.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu === mhz [n=mhz_chil@moinmoin/fan/mhz] has joined #ubuntu-motu === jinty [n=jinty@205.134.224.215] has joined #ubuntu-motu === pappan [n=garbage@bgepxyout-02.asiapac.hp.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu === MagnusR [n=magru@85.194.14.142] has joined #ubuntu-motu === abelcheung_ [n=abelcheu@221.126.153.199] has joined #ubuntu-motu [09:45] is it relatively easy to switch a svn repo to bzr? === ptlo [n=senko@83-131-84-102.adsl.net.t-com.hr] has joined #ubuntu-motu [09:53] probably, if you want the full histroy [09:53] err, history === pappan [n=garbage@bgepxyout-02.asiapac.hp.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu [09:56] is bzr generally considered better for offline (local) repos?

[10:05] is it the librairy name? [10:05] thierry_: you mean libfxscintilla or a different one? [10:05] libfxscintilla [10:05] thierry_: oh, daemon@poleboy.de is me ;) [10:06] ho ok! [10:06] by the way the libtool thing is needed, it's a change the upstream author sent me [10:06] thierry_: ah, k [10:06] sistpoty : so what should be the name of the package? libfxscintilla17 ? [10:07] thierry_: I suggest you name the _source_ package libfxscintilla (w.o. soname and w.o. version) [10:07] thierry_: thus you won't end up getting new sourcepackage names once upon a new upstream version [10:07] ok, are you a MOTU, if yes, I'd like that you delete the bad names from the REVU list when I'll upload the new one [10:08] thierry_: I am... will do that [10:09] thierry_: if you would need to have more than one version of the same (source)package in the archives (e.g. many packages building against it and ftbfs with new version) you could append a verison number to the sourcepackage [10:09] :) thanks, in about 10 minutes I'll upload everything, and should be able to advocate it [10:09] An error has occurred. [10:09] thierry_: the generated library package should match the soname however... [10:10] thierry_: maybe you want to take a look at the library packaging guide, if s.th. is not clear: http://www.netfort.gr.jp/~dancer/column/libpkg-guide/libpkg-guide.html [10:10] so in control I put Package: libfxscintilla17 ? [10:11] thierry_: yes [10:16] and the changelog is also libfxscintilla17? [10:17] no, the changelog refers to the sourcepackage [10:17] k [10:17] last thing : in scintilla/include/*.h /usr/include/libfxscintilla [10:17] include/*.h /usr/include/libfxscintilla do I put libfxscintilla or libfxscintilla17 ? [10:18] er [10:18] libfxscintilla-dev ? [10:19] http://www.netfort.gr.jp/~dancer/column/libpkg-guide/libpkg-guide.html [10:20] thierry_: you mean where to put the include files inside the -dev package? [10:22] thierry_: name the directory like upstream does (but it should be in /usr/include/) [10:23] thierry_: actually like upstream installs it ;) [10:24] lucas: ping? === Gloubi_Aw is now known as Gloubiboulga [10:25] Gloubiboulga: are you gauvain pocentek?

[11:11] cool === pappan [n=garbage@bgepxyout-02.asiapac.hp.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu [11:34] ok, this might be a silly question, if you make a bzr branch out of a directory can you move that directory somwhere else and have the branch be OK?
