sebest_hello, i'm trying to package an apache2 module and i wanted to know if it was required to use cdbs ?12:41
ajmitchwhy would cdbs be required?12:43
hubsebest_: some will say that you should, other will say that you shouldn't12:43
hubI personaly prefer cdbs12:43
hubbut \sh will say that you don't learn packaging with cdbs12:43
hub:-)12:43
sebest_hub, i followed a debian guide12:44
hubsebest_: I'm just saying, it is your choice12:44
sebest_but i didn't yet read enought to know the pro and cons of both method12:44
hubcdbs is "let cdbs maintain rules files, it will work in 95% of the situations"12:45
hubnot using it is "do what you should do, at least you'll understand"12:45
sebest_i think i won't use it as i may be in the 5% of the case12:45
hubcan't tell12:46
hub:-)12:46
sebest_and this apache module only install one .so12:46

thierryis there a way to get gedit working without installing X in a dapper chroot? mount --bind /home /var/chroot/home mount my /home to var/chroot/home but hide my orginal var/chroot/home12:48
thierrysebest_ : one example I could give (it happened to me) where cdbs cannot be used is a install script for a librairy wich was in ruby with command like "./ruby-installer.rb install". For that I really needed debhelper since cdbs couldn't handle that12:51

psusikhanreaper, it takes a while05:53
ajmitchkhanreaper: revu only accepts source packages, and processes every 15 minutes05:53
ajmitchkhanreaper: I see it in the rejected directory - is it signed with a key in the revu keyring?05:55
=== jsgotangco [n=jsg@210.4.38.43] has joined #ubuntu-motu
khanreaperajmitch: I signed it, but what do you mean by "signed with a key in the revu keyring?"06:44
LaserJockkhanreaper: you have to send an signed email to be added to the keyring before you can upload. Check out wiki.ubuntu.com/REVU .06:45
khanreaperIt states that "It is not necessary to GetYourKeySigned." Which is correct, then?06:46

jsgotangcoyes07:21
khanreaperQuestion: Suppose I am making a package for XYZ, and I need to patch some things in XYZ. Is there an official way of doing this--e.g., is a vanilla source archive included and dpkg somehow runs a patch file on it during the build?07:21
crimsunthat depends whether you want to use a patch management system07:22
crimsunthere're recommended practices but no official way07:23

Slant_MobileThat is, where am I supposed to submit bug reports?11:37
kikowhat do you mean it doesn't keep up to date?11:37
ajmitchpossibly the source package versions not being up to date11:39
ajmitcheg https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/f-spot11:39
ajmitchwhen 0.1.5-2 is in dapper11:39
Slant_MobileI was trying to report a bug (now fixed) in dhcp3-client, for example. However, the malone page for a version ages old.11:39
Slant_Mobilehttps://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/dapper/+package/dhcp3-client and https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/dapper/+source/dhcp311:40
Slant_MobileWhich both show 5ubuntu3 as the latest in dapper.11:40
ajmitchSlant_Mobile: this should all be up to date in a day or three11:40
ajmitchhaving the versions shown has only happened recently11:41

Slant_MobileJust submit normally?11:41
kikoSlant_Mobile, well, two things may be relevant here11:41
ajmitchSlant_Mobile: yes, file a bug normally11:41

kikofirst, production is currently lagging behind the archive and will be lagged for the next couple of days until we finish the migration.11:41
=== ajmitch assumed it was because gina wasn't run on production
Slant_Mobilekiko: bug tracking migration, or something else?11:41
kikosecond, bugs are filed against package names, not against specific versions.11:42
kikoSlant_Mobile, migration of archive management to launchpad.11:42
ajmitchkiko: that is probably confusing, since we really really like to have the version reported with a bug11:42
ajmitchand it's usual to submit version with bug in debian as a bug header11:42
Slant_MobileSo I'll just include the version and distro in the bug itself.11:42
ajmitchSlant_Mobile: yes please11:42
kikoajmitch, one problem at a time. I understand that. Add the version to the comment itself.11:42
Slant_MobileThat's not too hard.11:42
=== Slant_Mobile isn't exactly new to submitting or patching bugs...
kikoit's the workaround for now -- versions are trickier to handle11:43
ajmitchkiko: I understand :)11:43
ajmitchkiko: it's on my list of things to beg from bradb11:43
ajmitchwhich most of the developers probably have asked for already11:43
kikoajmitch, perhaps just adding text suggesting you add the version number and distro release to the bug comment is a good step forward11:43
Slant_MobileIs there a way to help a patch process along?11:44
ajmitchkiko: that's fine for ubuntu bugs - the text would have to be different for products11:44
kikowell, you'd do well to include a product version if you could.11:44
ajmitchyes11:44
Slant_MobileFor example, in 30043 I supplied a patch.11:44
Slant_Mobile(though, it's a one-line so that's kinda silly.)11:45
Slant_MobileIs there a better way to help it along?11:45
Slant_Mobile(Supply a diff on the source package?)11:45
ajmitcha diff on the source package can help\11:45
ajmitchI presume you've used debdiff before then11:46
Slant_MobileYes.11:47
ajmitchhopefully someone will get to the bug in a day or so - there's a distro team sprint this week that they're all hacking at11:48
=== Slant_Mobile nods.
=== ajmitch could probably check it out also
ajmitchSlant_Mobile: one thing is that the patch should really have successful, not sucessful :)11:53
Slant_Mobileajmitch: I figure minimum change to make it work. Upstream has a typo all the way through.11:54
Slant_MobileMajority ruling on the references.11:54
Slant_MobileYou think the other way around is better?11:54
Slant_MobileHehe. I love this gnome-pty-handler bug.11:55
Slant_Mobileerr gnome-pty-helper bug.11:55
ajmitchI prefer proper spelling throughout, unless it's too intrusive11:56

Slant_MobileBefore I continue tracking this down, is anyone else having an issue with gnome-terminal (or any other vte using application) that the spawned gnome-pty-helpers aren't dying?12:19
Slant_MobileAn easy way to test this is to close all your gnome-terminals, open a new one and run "ps ax | grep -i gnome-pty-helper | wc -l"12:20
Slant_MobileThen close the application, and reopen it.12:20
Slant_MobileRun that command again. The number should have increased.12:20

LaserJockthat file should reflect the licensing of the docs, correct?05:05

kikowell, keep in mind the reason I am here is to make the uploads work through soyuz05:34
lucasanyway, more generally, it might be interesting to raise the issue of pinging ubuntu-dev members on a regular basis05:34
LaserJockkiko: really? cool. How soon?05:34
kikoLaserJock, very soon. this week if you cross your fingers for me05:34
LaserJockkiko: I will ;-)05:35
stratuslucas, i think you can see the members status through launchpad activity (not yet, but when soyuz arrives).05:35
kikoyou can actually see membership status05:35
kikonow, what we need to do is expire ubuntu-dev and ubuntu-core-dev people more regularly.05:35
stratuskiko, i was going to ask carlos but can you talk something about the xmlrpc interfaces?05:35
kikothe non-existent ones, sure. :)05:35

kikoerr, not fixing the UI.05:39
kikois what I meant.05:39
LaserJockwell, I'm interested in doing queries on a large number of packages (~500) which makes a web interface quite difficult05:40

=== ompaul [n=ompaul@213-202-156-169.bas503.dsl.esat.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu
LaserJockalthough for from a user's perspective it is pretty cool05:40
stratusLaserJock, the xml-rpc interfaces will help any team with these goals in mind.05:40
kikoyeah05:41
stratusThe "end users" just care about the UI, they will never deal with the xml-rpc interfaces directly.05:41
stratusThe point is that we've different "end users", there are upstream guys but there are MOTU ones, interested in more features and control.05:42
LaserJockyes I meant to say that the web interface is cool to the average bug reporter05:42
kikothe existing one?05:42

=== JohnnyMast [n=rave@84-104-9-27.cable.quicknet.nl] has joined #ubuntu-motu
stratusIt's just the folder thing with zope, that isn't a problem but the UI lacks the right shortcuts.05:43
LaserJockyeah, I suppose. I usually look for bugs in a package first and then there is a link to file a bug against this package05:43
kikoyeah.05:43
LaserJockis there a list of features that are being worked on for LP with some sort of status?05:45
stratusLaserJock, yes but count the number of clicks until you can really open the bug.05:45
stratusLaserJock, have you tried the LP wiki?05:46
LaserJockumm, yeah but I quickly get lost :-(05:46
stratusLaserJock, use the search. I think if it's isn't there nobody cared to put it out or it isn't public.05:46
stratusbtw, i think kiko can give the right information about it05:46
kikoI can.05:48
LaserJockstratus: it only takes one click if you are already looking at a bug in that package, which is what I usually do. If you aren't it is much more of a pain05:48
kikowell, for immediately upcoming stuff there is the launchpad-users report I send out weekly05:48
kikoI can also talk about the medium-term plans (when I am a bit less busy)05:48
LaserJockoh, well that would be helpful. I would just like to see what's going on05:48

lucasand there hasn't been a "oops, it's totally broken" release since then07:42
lucasalso, it fixes several bugs (see http://www.jabberstudio.org/projects/jabberd2/releases/view.php?id=802 ), and it's not a lib, so if it breaks, it's not going to break much07:43

LaserJockdholbach: no, I'm trying to figure out how to do that exactly. I'm confused about the Debian Policy07:49
dholbachJust look at some other debian/copyright files.07:49
LaserJockdholbach: do I have to include the entire copyright in the debian/copyright?07:49
dholbachYou simply have to point out which license this is licensed under.07:49
dholbach/usr/share/debhelper/dh_make/licenses has some boilerplates07:49
LaserJockright but since FDL and CC-SA aren't in /usr/share/common-licenses doesn't that mean I need to include an entire copy of the license in debain/copyright?07:50
LaserJockplus there is no plain text version of the copyrights in the repo only .xml versions07:51
dholbachI sent the UVF exception requests out.07:51
dholbachIt's better to have them included.07:51
dholbachI'm away for a bit. It'd be good to ask this in #ubuntu-devel.07:52

_jasonHi, I'd like to get invlolved with motu.  I've read through the wiki pages but I'm not really sure how exactly the process still works.  How would you suggest I proceed so I can learn more?10:52
raphink_jason: what kind of work would you like to do?10:53
raphink:)10:53
_jasonraphink: interesting... I wanted to help with packaging, but maybe you can inform me about all of the possibilities :)10:53
raphinkthere are tons of things to do, depending on your skills, your preferences, etc.10:53
raphinkwell the main work is obviously linked to packages :)10:54
raphinkdo you have packages you'd like to have in Ubuntu?10:54
siretart(short hi)10:54
siretarthuhu sistpoty, hi lucas10:54
sistpotyhi siretart10:54
siretartsistpoty: what do I do?10:54
sistpotysiretart: lucas asked if backups of tiber are done10:55
_jasonraphink: I do have one called lmctl which I found useful (controls logitech mice) but that's not really my main goal10:55
raphinkhi siretart10:55
raphink_jason: what is your main goal then?10:55
siretartsistpoty: backups are not yet in place. I will start with them tomorrow10:55
sistpotysiretart: oh, cool :)10:56
_jasonraphink: just helping out, what would be the best way?10:56
siretartsistpoty: lucas: (and everyone else on tiber) I will only backup /srv, /home and /etc. please remove stuff which not need to be backuped from your homes10:56
raphinkwell we do a lot of things10:56
siretartmove them to /var/tmp and use symlinks, if you want10:56
raphink_jason: basically all things linked to universe is our  `realm`10:56
raphinkgetting new packages in, fixing bugs, etc.10:57
raphinkmerging/syncing packages from Debian10:57
raphinkright now, the two priorities are new packages and bug fixes10:57
raphinkmerging/syncing is not a priority anymore since we entered UVF, which means we try to not add new versions of package unless it's necessary10:58
_jasonwould you say that I could learn about making new packages and start helping out with relative ease or would you recommend that I start elsewhere and work myself to that point once I get more comfortable?10:59
raphink_jason: we get new packages in till the end of this month iirc, so we're in a bit of a rush on this I'd say11:00
raphinkbut learning to package is surely something is more than useful to work with MOTUs11:00
_jasonraphink: I see, so most of the work is bug related after that?11:00
raphinkeven for bugfixing, you'll need to know about packaging for sure11:00
raphinkif you feel like learning to package, go for it11:00
raphinkand if you have apps to get in Ubuntu11:00
raphinkgo for it11:00
raphinkthat's the best way to learn how to package ;)11:01
raphinkwhen it comes to new packages, we use a system that is called REVU11:01
raphinkit's a reviewing/sponsoring/mentoring system :)11:01
_jasonI was reading the Pbuilder method, is that what is genereally used?11:01
raphinkhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/REVU11:02
raphinkdepends on people11:02
raphinkbut using pbuilder is surely a requirement for a good work imo11:02
raphinkand using chroots is also a good thing11:02
raphink:)11:02
_jasonokay, let's say I try this and get a working package while trying to follow all of the guidelines.  I can then post it to REVU and await feedback/approval?11:03
raphinkyep11:03
raphinkyou better ask for reviews actually11:03
raphink;)11:03
raphinkonce your package is on REVU11:03
raphinkget here and paste the URL11:04

sistpotyhm... if a package produces a arch:all and arch:any package (both with the same rule in binary-arch), does binary-indep need to depend on binary-arch?11:38
\shsistpoty: depends..if it's a -doc then no :)11:38
sistpoty\sh: no, it's some shell-scripts, but they get installed by make install, which also installs a library11:39
sistpoty\sh: http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?upid=1627 (libswitch)11:39
\shsistpoty: hmm...what are the scripts doing? i don't think they use the lib directly, right?11:40
sistpoty\sh: no, they use a program (different package), which b-d on the lib11:41
\shsistpoty: then I would depend on the different package, instead of the lib package11:41

raphinkstill a lot to do for MOTU docs on the wiki11:44
sistpoty\sh: will it make probs, if the binary-indep rule is empty/doesn't produce the arch:all package?11:44
