The feeling of extreme disgust and hatred; abhorrence; [12:11] detestation; loathing; as, he holds tobacco in [12:11] abomination. [12:11] [1913 Webster] [12:11] ? [12:11] yes [12:11] heh [12:11] but used as a noun === sivang waits for emacs21 to compile with debug symbols [12:11] sivang, running a dated piece of 70s technology on modern bling [12:12] hehe, indeed. What can I do if I got used to some of its niceities? ;-) [12:12] (./me thinks if there are any other py editor that do not suck) [12:12] sivang: I heard it fails in Xgl because it can't find rgb.txt, because the Xgl package was compiled with the wrong path to it [12:13] err because it can't find 'black' because no rgb.txt [12:13] trappist: do you happen to know the right path? My strace shows that it looks for it where I Put it, /etc/X11/rgb.txt [12:14] sivang: I just overheard this in #ubuntu-xgl or somewhere. I have no first-hand knowledge of the problem. [12:15] trappist: okay, thanks anyway === sivang fantasizes of his green emacs21 window in wobbely mode. [12:16] Burgwork: I guess I'm a 70's hippie, after all :p [12:16] I can't talk compiz into using mesa's libGL, so I'm fantasizing about anything in wobbly mode. [12:17] to be honest, the most interesting thing I am looking forward to is expose-style window shrinking [12:18] it's all about the live thumbnail previews.

[12:42] cassidy: it can be cool if we can give names to people on this picture. I can only say jdub, vuntz, ploum, kikidonk and cassidy [12:43] ploum: the other guy with me is not involved in Ubuntu. And my 2 neighbors at the table either [12:44] oh... I tought [12:44] Next year, we will do an Ubuntu Room ! [12:45] ploum: That would be great... then I might had actually found you guys. [12:45] it means that we have to choice between GNOME and Ubuntu devroom. Big dilemma :) [12:45] cassidy: it would be indeed a big dilemna. But there are many ubuntu things to discuss [12:46] hunger: indeed, it was difficult to find Ubuntu fans [12:46] No stand, no room [12:46] Ubuntu-be will solve this problem next year :-) [12:46] GNOME/Ubuntu entre les deux mon coeur balance ;) [12:47] ploum: A stand is not really important IMHO... the people coming to fosdem know about ubuntu anyway. [12:47] ploum: ping me when the mailing list will be installed [12:47] hunger: I agree. That's why I think a room it's better [12:47] ploum: And the stands are in the hallways which are always so crowded that it is hard to stop and talk anyway. [12:47] hunger: i agree. Discuss about specific ubuntu discuss and meet ubuntu fans is more interesting === hunger agrees. [12:47] s/discuss/stuff [12:48] (and drink beers ;) [12:48] cassidy: I will have to annoy jdub === hunger never understood the debian and gentoo stands... they got rooms to sit behind their laptops in.

(I'm just too lazy to read a man page like the mencoder one now) === derekS [n=derekS@cpe-66-108-44-139.nyc.res.rr.com] has left #ubuntu-devel [] [12:52] hunger: I've heard about apparmour but I was not at the talk. Was it interesting ? what was the demo ? [12:52] ploum: yes, but there are some GUIs for it [12:52] subterrific: what's the bug ? === hunger found it very interessting. [12:52] good night everybody [12:53] good night [12:53] It is not as powerful as selinux, but it is way easier. [12:53] i tried doing a flight-4 install and it failed because update-initramfs -u was saying "Kernel too old, requires 2.6.12 or greater". the problem was that the /boot partition i selected had old kernels on it from an old breezy install [12:53] ploum: The demo was writing a profile for a php-app in apache in less then 3 min. [12:54] is that an initramfs-tools bug or debian-installer or what? [12:54] ploum: They got perl scripts to help with creating the profile... it just asks a couple of questions and you are done. [12:54] would be cool to have it packaged for dapper *hint* [12:54] although really late [12:55] spacey: Too late I think. [12:55] i ended up fixing it by dropping into a console and removing all the symlinks and the old kernel from /boot and then rerunning update-initramfs -u [12:55] subterrific: hmmm. I'm not expert at all. I would say : report it again intramfs (it's the part that produce the error). It could be changed later if it's wrong [12:55] ok, thanks [12:55] spacey: It needs to be started as early in the boot sequence as possible... I doubt that somebody may change the bootup process for that at this point in time. [12:55] hunger: seems intersting indeed. [12:56] hunger: yeah that would be a problem [12:56] ploum: Well, it is by far not as powerful as selinux... [12:56] I think that Dapper target is more Desktop. Apparmour seems to be mainly for servers [12:56] ploum, hunger, ajmitch_ is the right person to ask about selinux and apparmour [12:56] (of course there's Ubuntu Server ;-) ) [12:57] ploum, dapper is targetted at everything and so is app armour [12:57] Burgwork: Apparmour on a desktop ? Really ? [12:57] ploum: Nope... he said he uses profiles for every app with network access (gaim, firefox) and pdf readers. [12:57] hunger: I'm not a selinux expert at all [12:57] ploum, it is very similar to selinux, with FC runs on their desktop [12:57] oh so.. [12:57] ploum: Basically everything where there were recent exploits;-) [12:58] afaik, we'd have to choose one or the other [12:58] which won't be up to me [12:59] ajmitch_, what is your gut feeling? is the additional "complexity" of selinux worth it, due to the greater support for it? [12:59] ajmitch_: Not my task either... selinux is more powerful... but apparmour is way easier... I do not even want to decide that. [12:59] Burgwork: I'd personally go for apparmour... [12:59] Burgwork: I feel selinux is a better choice, but that's from someone who hasn't looked at apparmour very hard [12:59] hunger, have you used either? [01:00] it's like choosing between Xgl and Aiglx (or whatever is the name) :-) [01:00] ploum: I'm afraid it's not :) [01:00] Burgwork: I have not used apparmour... and I failed to get selinux configured, so I wouldn't listen to me if I had anything to say:-) === setuid [i=japh@gnu-designs.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel [01:01] hunger, hence why I asked ajmitch_ ;) [01:01] Riddle me this, a source package for a dapper kernel should build out of the box, with debuild, right? [01:01] I mean... I'm _running_ the binary version of that kernel, so it built on at least 1 machine [01:01] ajmitch_: it was just a joke. I'm not at all in technical details [01:01] setuid: yes, and I've built dapper kernels with just debuild (from the git tree) [01:02] ajmitch_, it seems the main selling point of apparmour is that selinux is "hard" [01:02] ajmitch_: Something is amiss with 2.6.15-16... gives me some weird error at boot about /dev/hda2 not existing, and dumps me to busybox [01:02] Burgwork: It was at the demo at fosdem. [01:02] setuid: sounds like initramfs issues [01:02] But /dev/hda2 works fine, 2.6.12-10 is booted to it (but no fxlrx driver support in 2.6.12) [01:02] ajmitch_: Ok... lemme check that [01:03] initramfs support packages are onboard, what else should I poke at? [01:03] Burgwork: of course, and having simplicity as a selling point of security isn't necessarily good [01:03] Burgwork: That and that apparmour works with all apps while selinux is supposed to have apps linked to some lib. === ajmitch_ could pull up examples of why path-based MAC is bad, and all other stuff [01:03] hunger: vile lies :) [01:04] hunger: a *few* apps get linked to libselinux, to get things like listing security contexts, etc [01:04] ajmitch_: I am just repeating what I heared. As I said: I was too stupid to work out selinux. [01:05] ajmitch_, I would love to see selinux or something similar for dapper+1 [01:05] hunger: no, integrating something like that into a distro is not easy [01:05] it's not a matter of stupidity [01:05] Burgwork: sure, and for a change there are others willing to help out, mainly in debian [01:05] seems like either apparmour or selinux is simply a lot of work, either way [01:05] ajmitch_: And frankly I do not feel comftable with the idea of having several independent sets of permissions (filesystem and selinux/apparmour whatever). [01:05] there's a very capable team of people doing selinux in debian now [01:05] good night [01:06] ajmitch_, they might ship you to Germany in May if you offer to do selinux for dapper+1 [01:06] Burgwork: hah funny [01:06] ajmitch_, honestly, I would email Mark and say thta [01:07] because something like selinux would need to be decided as a goal at teh conference, due to its tentacles of doom nature [01:07] Burgwork: what do you think I specced at the last 2 conferences? [01:08] indeed [01:08] Burgwork: And some really good docu will need to get written or too many people will just deactivate it (or - god forbid - leave for debian;-) [01:09] hunger: fyi, https://alioth.debian.org/projects/selinux/ [01:11] ajmitch_: I know there is a project about selinux in debian, but it will take AGES to get that done there (if at all). Ubuntu can be much faster if you guys ever set your mind on getting it in. [01:12] hunger: who are these 'you guys' that are so willing to help out? [01:12] ajmitch_: The ubuntu developers. I am just a user listening in on you;-) [01:12] the difference between ubuntu & debian is that there are people willing to do the work in debian === j^ [n=j@e178000154.adsl.alicedsl.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel [01:13] ok, I have now tried twice to kill the alternate init thread without success [01:13] hunger: 'the developers' is a vague enough term - it's pretty much just been me who's cared in ubuntu [01:13] Burgwork: some things just need to die naturally [01:14] ajmitch_, sadly yes. Until then, hundreds of people will have more crap in their inboxes [01:14] one thing I noticed about the Fedora devel list is they don;t have the same policy of shutting people down who are posting things that belong on other lists [01:15] at least it's not as nasty as the python stuff thread [01:15] yes [01:15] ajmitch_: Maybe. But ubuntu has fewer developers that need convincing. [01:15] where the developers were accused of all sorts of incompetence [01:15] hunger: good, get to work convincing them [01:16] ajmitch_: Me? I'm just a user listening in here;-) [01:16] yeah right [01:16] ajmitch_: And I am not convinced myself yet. === mgalvin [n=mgalvin@ubuntu/member/mgalvin] has joined #ubuntu-devel [01:16] saying 'the developers should..' without backing it up, is what doesn't work [01:17] few developers means they're all stretched thin [01:17] ajmitch_: I personally think security should be tightened somehow, I am just not yet sure selinux is the thing for me. [01:17] is network-manger broken by the latest gnome-keyring upload? [01:18] ajmitch_, to be fair to Ubuntu, it is much younger and the paid developers have a great deal on their plates [01:18] ajmitch_: As I said earlier: it basically introduces another priviledge system that is independent of the traditional filesystem descretionary one. [01:19] http://www1.umn.edu/ohr/employment/openings/job135042.html [01:19] bwhaha [01:19] ubuntu experience as part of the qualifications [01:19] (its a repost for an internal canidate due to stupid hr rules) [01:19] but still [01:20] dieman, where di you find that? [01:21] hunger: which is the intended behaviour, because discretionary access control is seen to be limited [01:21] dieman: at least it didn't mandate 3 years ubuntu experience [01:22] ajmitch_: ahahah [01:22] Burgwork: i work there === Burgwork has 12 years of Ubuntu experience and 9 years of Windows XP experience [01:22] Burgwork: the posting is one of my coworkers who was on a 6month temp positing [01:22] this one is a 12mo temp posting [01:22] its hr hell [01:22] ah [01:22] Burgwork: the developers having a lot on their plates is what I'm saying - there need to be very good reasons for resources to be allocated to tasks [01:22] you can't just 'make jobs' [01:22] there are good reasons for taht [01:23] ajmitch_: Yes, I see that. I wouldn't mind if the old one could get removed altogether (which is obviously impossible). It just sucks having two systems for the same thing. [01:23] ok, one more question. after i got my flight-4 install to finish and then rebooted. it had set the grub root to (hd2,0) which was wrong and I was left with a 'Error 15: file not found' message. i had to manually change it to (hd0,0) so grub could find the kernel. what component is that a bug for? [01:24] hunger: they complement each other - selinux takes DAC permissions into account as well [01:24] ajmitch_: So if I were convinced of selinux: What could I do to help in the limited time I have. [01:24] grub-installer perhaps? [01:25] hunger: we're past feature freeze for dapper - most work is in debian on the packaging of the reference policy right now [01:25] ajmitch_: Yes, to some extend. But having ACLs and owner-group-other permissions will confuse the hell out of me:-) [01:26] once that is in a usable state (which I started work on), then testing & tools is what's important [01:26] hunger: you generally don't need to worry about them [01:26] ajmitch_: I can test, I'll unable to stay on a stable system anyway:-) === ajmitch_ can't do much at the moment, too busy with work [01:27] ajmitch_: Oh, believe me: I will need to worry about them! I change too many things on my systems not to run into that at some point. [01:27] ajmitch_: Just tell me when there is anything to test. I'll do so if I have the time. [01:27] ok [01:28] im still bummed out that i wont get to play with nfsv4 with dapper it sounds [01:28] since it breaks mounting sarge nfs userspace server mounts [01:28] no nfs filesystem acls for us just yet. === mgalvin [n=mgalvin@ubuntu/member/mgalvin] has joined #ubuntu-devel === jdong [n=jdong@ubuntu/member/jdong] has joined #ubuntu-devel [01:33] where would I go to ask questions about the Ubuntu website?

[02:05] setuid: google for cryptsetup:-) [02:05] I have that installed, problem is, I need to get into the partition as it is now [02:05] I can't just use cryptsetup, blow away 300GiB and start over [02:06] KNOPPIX can do it, but KNOPPIX (4.0.2) has *PITFULLY* slow usb implementation (200k/sec. max, over a usb2 that I get 40+MiB on regular transfers) [02:07] setuid: The algorithem for encryption is identical. It is just the hash alg. used to generate the key that differs. === lakin [n=lakin@dsl-hill-66-18-228-60-cgy.nucleus.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel [02:07] Sure, which means it won't work [02:07] setuid: So you can make cryptsetup read loopaes partitions IIRc. [02:07] Note the -C3 above [02:07] setuid: "All" you need to do is find the right hash alg. and force cryptsetup to use that:-) [02:08] afaik cryptsetup is backwards-compatible with regular cryptoloop, but not loop-aes [02:08] Sure, and then hash it 3 times with my seed, which cryptsetup does not support [02:08] mjr: Correct [02:08] I'd just like to know why it was crippled in dapper, and not in breezy === mjr uses loop-aes incidentally also, with breezy [02:08] setuid: Oh... then you are in trouble:-( [02:08] It may be deprecated, but functionality should not have been _removed_ [02:08] seemed to have better options [02:09] what with the multi-key-3 mode [02:09] mjr: Have you looked into LUKS? [02:09] I've glanced at it [02:09] mjr: Got a dapper install somewhere? [02:09] on my laptop [02:09] mjr: Stores all the details for you and is way nicer then anything else I used so far. [02:10] (where there's no encryption as of yet) [02:11] ah well, I have the crypted fs mirrored so I can re-encrypt it easily by disengaging the mirror for a while, if need be [02:11] mjr: Just try to create a loopback file with aes256 under dapper [02:11] For some reason, it ignores 256 and 128-bit keys... probably some other bug lurking [02:11] setuid: There is a script to access loopaes on dmcrypt here: http://clemens.endorphin.org/Cryptoloop_Migration_Guide [02:11] hunger: I'm not using dmcrypt, but I'll take a look [02:11] setuid: Dunno whether that will work for you. === r0bby__ [n=wakawaka@cpe-24-161-52-23.hvc.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel [02:13] I'll just decrypt this, blow it away and rebuild it [02:13] I set it as xfs anyway, which is bad to do on a crypted volume anyway [02:13] setuid, sure you're using loop-aes-utils versions of losetup? [02:13] setuid: I'd recommend using devicemapper with LUKS then:-) [02:13] hunger: I need something that is distro-transparent, i.e. works with KNOPPIX and similar tools [02:14] mjr: Yes [02:14] setuid: Try the script... it should be able to mount loopaes volumes via devicemapper. [02:15] setuid: LUKS is meant to be distro-transparent. IIRC gnome-volume-manager supports it nowadays, so it can not be purely ubuntu;-) [02:15] hunger, that work for multi-key-modes 2 and 3 too? [02:16] hunger: Looks like that script is missing a good whack of functionality, specifically the target partition, mount point, seed and cipher number [02:16] mjr: It should with a bit of twiddling;-) [02:16] sure, anything works when you twiddle enough source code [02:17] Precisely ;) [02:17] mjr: calling hashalot several times should make that work I think.

[03:54] Yes. [03:54] slomo_: no, promotions/demotions can happen for a while still [03:54] So that breaks epiphany. But what about the other gecko-embedders ? [03:54] I mean, I could just move the pref out of gecko into firefox (effectively), I think. [03:55] pitti: ok... a package in main is dependening on a binary package out of mono-tools... so i don't have to do anything for these 3? [03:55] Kamion: btw, racoon promotion is fine (source in main since warty), and libpng source-only promotion too (source renamed from libpng3) [03:56] slomo_: 'these 3'?

[03:59] Kamion: may I bother you with approving culmus for breezy-updates? (cprov wanted to have a test package) [03:59] looking on the patch == reviewing the code [03:59] Diziet: that come that way, nobody warned them about the changes, and they started getting bugs on epiphany [03:59] Diziet: so they looked on what we did [03:59] ie: got the firefox diff and looked on what the diff do :) [04:00] I think that was just some "talking on IRC while reading the patch" [04:00] pitti: ok, so these 3 (mono-tools, nunit, nant) only have to be added to the overrides by Kamion and everything is fine? [04:00] anyway chpe opened the bug, so better to reply on it and ask whatever might be useful for you [04:00] slomo_: right, anastacia already wants mono-tools, so germinate-wise they are fine [04:00] Diziet: thank you [04:00] I did suggest he should mail ubuntu-devel but I don't think he did. [04:01] I don't think they are subscribes to ubuntu-devel [04:01] subscribed [04:01] slomo_: if some binaries of mono-tools are not caught by dependencies, then we might need to explicitly seed them, though; please just tell us in this case [04:02] pitti: ok :) hmm, i'll fix dbus now (still FTBFS)... or are you already doing it? [04:03] slomo_: hm, it worked here (I could reproduce the former FTBFS) [04:03] slomo_: last time I checked it wasn't attempted to build yet === pitti checks again [04:03] pitti: i don't understand the current ftbfs yet :) [04:04] WTF??? === pitti hits autotools really, really hard (again) [04:04] slomo_: I removed all autotools stuff from my system and it built fine *sigh* [04:04] slomo_: I'm currenlty a bit busy, so if you have time and want to fix it, go ahead :) [04:05] otherwise I try to look into it later today === jpatrick [n=patrick@ubuntu/member/jpatrick] has joined #ubuntu-devel [04:05] pitti: i'll take a look at it ;) are you still doing the reports? [04:05] yes [04:06] trying to reduce the queue a bit :) === j^_ is now known as j^ === lbm [n=lbm@x1-6-00-13-10-7a-d1-e4.k233.webspeed.dk] has joined #ubuntu-devel [04:13] slomo_: do you use liferea heavily? how stable and user friendly is it? [04:16] pitti: i use it always ;) i never had a crash with the latest versions on ppc or x86, only amd64 is a bit crashy currently but this could also be a problem in the libraries below (i.e. glib, pango, gtkhtml)... it's imho easy to use... i don't know what could be done better but i'm probably the wrong to ask regarding user friendlyness as i'm using it since ages [04:16] alright, so it's not brand new unstable crack then? [04:17] no... first upload to debian was 2004, the app itself exists even longer, maybe 2002... we had it since warty [04:19] slomo_: I installed and started it; two thirds of the articles are empty, and it crashed after a few clicks with a segfault (amd64) [04:21] pitti: uh... what feeds do you have in there? and segfaults on amd64 are normal unfortunately... sometimes it happens instantly, sometimes after a day of use... that's what i meant with crashy on amd64 above [04:21] slomo_: just the default one (mozillaZine I think) === AlinuxOS [n=Ubuntu@d83-176-5-22.cust.tele2.it] has joined #ubuntu-devel [04:22] pitti: ah wait... you mean the article summaries are empty? that happens when there's no summary for the article in the feed which is the case for most feeds of news sites :/ you can get the article by double clicking on it [04:22] slomo_: ah, I see [04:23] slomo_: the back trace looks quite useful [04:23] slomo_: maybe you can take a look at it? [04:23] pitti: sure... paste it somewhere :) [04:23] mjg59, hello [04:23] mjg59, around ? [04:23] pitti, hello ;) [04:24] slomo_: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9541 === pitti waves to AlinuxOS [04:24] AlinuxOS: Hi [04:25] slomo_: it calls _gdk_x11_convert_to_format() with a NULL pointer argument, should be quite obvious [04:25] hi mjg59, how are you? [04:25] pitti: oh, that's something new i never saw before... the bug i meant is bug 4732 [04:25] malone bug 4732 in liferea "liferea crashes when it jumps to a new article" [Normal,Confirmed] http://launchpad.net/bugs/4732 [04:25] Stuck clearing a lab [04:25] mjg59, I've talked with pitti yesterday... [04:25] AlinuxOS: Ok [04:25] he told me that he needs georgian font-s source package :) [04:26] ? [04:26] They're in the archive [04:26] Kamion: uh, the kernel-diff is 2MB.. I believe this won't make it in for dapper ;) [04:26] mjg59: oh, I could only find your deb on the URL stated in the bug report === mantiena-baltix [n=vytis@bonamens.lt] has joined #ubuntu-devel [04:26] hi doko [04:26] mjg59: so much the better, great :) [04:27] pitti: They're supposed to be in universe [04:27] I uploaded some time ago [04:27] mjg59, yes 2 weeks ago I suppose [04:27] jdub, the planet rss20.xml feed is broken again. [04:27] mjg59, what about changes of default font for Gnome interface ? [04:28] pitti: thanks... hmm... there's no function from liferea called so can we assume that the bug is somewhere outside liferea? [04:28] mjg59: do you see an easy way to (ab-)use dbus' at_console policy check so that other programs (like g-v-m) can call a dummy function to check whether they are on a currently active display? [04:28] BPG_Chveulebrivi.ttf BPG_Courier.ttf BPG_Glaho.ttf this free fonts are contained in .deb package [04:28] mdke: that error is WEIRD! [04:28] BPG_Glaho.ttf is most sutable for GNOME interface [04:28] Treenaks, due to & char I suppose [04:28] but by default there is BPG_Courier.ttf [04:29] slomo_: not necessarily; something likely passes wrong (i. e. NULL) arguments down the chain [04:29] mdke: hmm. yeah, I see === ploum is now known as Groulala [04:29] pitti: Not really. The Right Answer is to use Davidz's spec [04:29] (That he's just posted a first cut of) === `anthony [n=anthony@220-253-32-169.VIC.netspace.net.au] has joined #ubuntu-devel [04:29] mjg59, is there some techniques that can change default font for GNOME interface ? [04:30] AlinuxOS: I already told you, it needs proper fontconfig changes [04:30] example BPG_Courier.ttf to BPG_Glaho.ttf [04:30] AlinuxOS: It needs Fontconfig work, but unfortunately I don't understand fontconfig [04:30] pitti, whats the advantage of a dbus function over getenv("DISPLAY") ? [04:30] pitti: hm, when does this happen? and is it reproducible always? === Groulala is now known as ploum [04:30] pitti, yes you've told me but I don't know who can change things there ? [04:31] ogra: that doesn't help me to detect whether the app is on the current foreground console [04:31] and who is mantainer ? [04:31] maybe I can talk with a mantainer about this ? :) [04:31] slomo_: I reproduced it twice in a row without any difficulty [04:31] pitti, ah [04:32] mjg59: where did he post his spec? in his blog? [04:33] pitti: interesting... it isn't that easy on the amd64 of my brother... well, defer the report for now until i ping you again about it ;) interesting thing is, that nobody in debian had this problem on amd64 [04:35] slomo_, sometimes liferea crashes after a few minutes, sometimes after some hours... === jono [n=jono@mail.openadvantage.org] has joined #ubuntu-devel [04:37] pitti: Yes [04:37] who is Keith Packard ? :) [04:37] maybe he is here .) [04:37] :D [04:38] AlinuxOS: I saw him at FOSDEM [04:38] :) [04:38] he is fontconfig mantainer :) [04:38] or packages :) [04:38] packager for debian :) === sabdfl [n=mark@ubuntu/member/pdpc.silver.sabdfl] has joined #ubuntu-devel === Narinux [i=narinux@201-42-48-129.dsl.telesp.net.br] has joined #ubuntu-devel [04:42] heya sabdfl === ubuntulog [i=ubuntulo@trider-g7.fabbione.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel === Topic for #ubuntu-devel: Ubuntu Development (not support, even with dapper) | #ubuntu for support and general discussion | #ubuntu-motu for getting involved in development | http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DeveloperResources | http://wiki.ubuntu.com/HelpingWithBugs | Flight CD 4 released | If your initramfs is broken in any way, please save a copy for infinity === Topic (#ubuntu-devel): set by Kamion at Sun Feb 19 10:27:39 2006 [04:46] (koke/#ubuntu-devel) There are some missing translations in dapper, but they are ok in /usr/share/locale-langpack [04:46] (the tooltips of Applications/System/Places) [04:47] but the menus are translated [04:47] pitti: are you using the gtkhtml or mozilla renderer? please try with liferea-mozilla (and set this in the preferences of liferea) === Keybuk throws snowballs at jono === fabbione [i=fabbione@gordian.fabbione.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [04:49] Keybuk, oi! [04:49] :) [04:49] Keybuk, hows it going pal? [04:49] cold - but otherwise good [04:50] Keybuk, are you in brum? [04:50] no, Oslo [04:50] oh really? [04:50] I get about a bit :) [04:50] Keybuk, oh yeah, you said you would be away for a bit [04:50] heh [04:50] how is it there, apart from cold? [04:50] Keybuk: what are you doing over incol oslo ? :) (/me guesses working with tollef) [04:51] hum [04:51] sivang: making snowmen. [04:51] :-) [04:51] does xlibs-static-pic have an successor ? does anybody know the name ? [04:51] ogra: no, it doesn't. Why do you need it? [04:52] Mithrandir, vlc build deps on it ... [04:52] Mithrandir: heh, /me wishes for some snow instead of the desert dust that been rulling in Tel Aviv lately [04:52] i was just about to fix screensaver stuff in there and do a testbuild ... [04:52] jono: mostly just cold actually [04:53] ogra: which parts does it need? [04:53] pitti, I'll mail fontconfig package mantainer about bpg-georgian-fonts problems. ;) [04:53] there's probably some other stuff, but I'm TOO COLD to think about it [04:53] ;) [04:53] hmm, how unsufferably British of me, bitching about the weather [04:53] heh [04:53] Keybuk, yes indeed, I assume you are sat there in your Union Jack shorts [04:53] :P [04:54] AlinuxOS: great [04:54] Mithrandir, no idea its in the build-deps is all i know for now [04:54] ogra: find out, then [04:55] ENOCRIMSUN :( [04:55] pitti, will this package by default in Dapper Drake ? [04:55] to have native support of georgian language ? [04:55] AlinuxOS: this sentence no verb :) [04:55] AlinuxOS: we can include the font if it's fontconfig'ed properly, yes [04:56] pitti, I have a soultion :) maybe you can include only BPG_Glaho.ttf font :) [04:56] it's most usable and better than other [04:56] that still reqires fontconfig'ing [04:57] and other fonts can be added later from another package [04:57] but I always appreciate reducing package size :) [04:57] pitti, :) consider that BPG_Glaho.ttf is the main font for gnome interface. [04:57] it's only 149K [04:57] AlinuxOS: what did you have to do to make it work properly, apart from installing hte deb? [04:58] other fonts are not requred for georgianisation of gnome :) [04:58] did you manually configure it in the gnome font dialog? === cassidy [n=cassidy@f1-pc174.ulb.ac.be] has joined #ubuntu-devel [04:58] no [04:58] .D [04:58] I've removede other 2 fonts :) [04:58] I don't need them for interface. [04:59] BPG_Glaho.ttf works great (small medium and huge) sizes [04:59] i. e. just dropping that one ttf into your font folder is everything required? === pitti doesn't know anything about font handling unfortunately [05:00] http://www.desktoplinux.com/files/article019/osdl-dtl-survey-12.jpg - nice! [05:00] /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-bpg-georgian$ ls [05:00] BPG_Glaho.ttf fonts.cache-1 [05:00] yes :) [05:00] pitti, I use only this fonts [05:00] and have whole GNOME in georgian :) [05:00] it's shared with openoffice too :) === dholbach [n=daniel@i577B09C2.versanet.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel [05:01] mainly other fonts are used for typing. [05:01] AlinuxOS: you just dropped that ttf into that dir, and everything magically worked? [05:02] (that would be wonderful, but sounds like black magic to me) [05:02] pitti, before I need fc-cache [05:02] in /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-bpg-georgian$ directory [05:02] than restart X and magically everything is in georgian [05:02] of course locales must be in georgian :) [05:03] you must specify Georgian like default language in "Language Selector" [05:04] right, setting locale is clear [05:04] AlinuxOS: ok, the package's postinst script should deal with fc-cache [05:04] so the procedure is: put BPG_Glaho.ttf into /usr/share/fonts/truetype/geo, then move into geo, lauch fc-cache, restart X..and voila :) [05:05] pitti, yes is very simple :) [05:05] indeed, that's scaringly simple :) [05:05] where's the catch? [05:05] mjg59, so ? :) do you like this georgian font tip ? :) [05:06] No, we should just fix the fontconfig configuration [05:06] Which requires finding someone who understands the damn thing, but. [05:06] BPG_Glaho.ttfwe can use like main font for gnome interface ;) and other + extra pacakges === pitti installs ttf-bpg-georgian-fonts and gets a lot of 'Use of uninitialized value in print' warnings [05:06] pitti, ;) [05:07] mjg59, no fontconfig maestros on ubuntu-devel ? [05:07] for example you pitti as German, which font do you use for main interface ? [05:07] no idea, I never bothered to change it [05:07] just the default one [05:08] bitstream vera then :) [05:08] "Sans" [05:08] pitti, eh, you indoeuropeans are lucky :( [05:08] pitti, sans points to vera :) [05:08] AlinuxOS: so, yes, the package already deals with the fc-cache call [05:08] but I'm too tired ..because I'm alone who cares about this... [05:08] AlinuxOS, youre doing a great job :) [05:09] some people has donwloaded Ubuntu in georgia...and tested packages [05:09] (pitti, no erros now :D with double .mo files) === OculusAquilae [n=bastian@p548D32F6.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel [05:09] AlinuxOS: alright, I can remove the other two fonts from the package if it helps to make it work OOTB [05:09] and who interface wasn't in BPG_Glaho.ttf, but in courier [05:09] AlinuxOS: then we just need to add it to the desktop seed (but I'll test it again to make doubly sure) [05:10] and it was horrible :) [05:10] ogra, thank you, it's the first week that I'm GNOME's georgian coordinator too :) === AlinuxOS almost alone, translates GNOME... :) %-) [05:11] need help, but people is too lasy :) [05:11] has racoon been moved from universe to main? [05:11] pitti: ^^ [05:11] fabbione, :) italian ? [05:11] pitti: No, that isn't a good option. It means that anyone who adds the fonts gets breakage. [05:12] fabbione: yes [05:12] fabbione: any trouble with that? [05:12] pitti: no, just scared the hell out of me when i saw a sparc binary being rsynced [05:12] AlinuxOS: yes [05:12] fabbione, mi fa piacere frattelone fabbione :) [05:13] mjg59, you mean if people add fonts to /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-bpg-georgian ? [05:14] AlinuxOS: Yes [05:14] mmm === Hirion [n=hirion@draugr.de] has left #ubuntu-devel [] [05:14] normally, Linux people (some people that I know)... adds only BPG_Glaho.ttf into /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ [05:15] and other fonts in open office specific font location. === lloydinho [n=andreas@rosinante.egmont-kol.dk] has joined #ubuntu-devel === Hirion [n=hirion@draugr.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel [05:16] I've asked to GPLise BPG author 3 fonts... but only BPG_Glaho.ttf is well suted for GNOME or KDE. [05:16] AlinuxOS: No, both are suitable. [05:16] Uh, all. [05:16] You want a monospaced Georgian font for the terminal. [05:16] mjg59, yes I know, but spaces in others are ugly. [05:16] Just fix the fontconfig setup. [05:17] Don't try to work around it. Don't split things up into separate packages. Just fix the thing that is actually causing the problem. [05:17] mjg59, ok, for example I've fixed locally this problem, howto make this thinks automatic for other people that will use georgian language in interface ? [05:18] will they do this difficult thing manually? [05:20] Kamion: debian-installer - okee dokee [05:21] mjg59, monospaced georgian font dosen't exist in georgian yet... some friends are making them... that's why I can't start to translate debian-installer to [05:21] to add georgian into main installation. === desrt [n=desrt@71.19.9.154] has joined #ubuntu-devel [05:23] does anybody know what phpmyadmin depends on apache2-prefork and its dependency list wants to remove apach2-worker?? [05:23] s/what/why/ [05:24] sivang: php5 is not thread safe [05:24] so it pulls in php5 and -prefork [05:25] AlinuxOS: There's a monospaced georgian font in that package! [05:25] fabbione: ah, bummer [05:25] AlinuxOS: The way to make it work for everyone is to fix the fontconfig setup [05:25] mjg59, which one ? ??? [05:26] mjg59, I will fight with fontconfig! :) [05:26] whichone is monospaced font ? :) [05:26] mjg59, ? [05:26] AlinuxOS: "BPG Courier" [05:28] mjg59, with this font will I see files and directories into georgian ? [05:28] even if I don't start X ? [05:28] AlinuxOS: No. It's a truetype font,. [05:28] The console requires bitmap ones [05:29] BPG_Glaho.ttf works great for X [05:30] Not in a terminal, it doesn;t [05:30] Like gnome-terminal [05:30] That needs BPG courier [05:30] mjg59, :) [05:30] I'll show you a screenshot :) [05:31] I'll write you name in terminal :) [05:31] BPG-Glaho is not useful in gnome-terminal. It's not a monospaced font. [05:32] http://alinuxos.no-ip.org/font.png [05:35] AlinuxOS: ah, it seems you use the standard fixed font in the terminal then [05:36] pitti, ? ;) [05:36] arugh. someone wants to buy 5 machines with a xgi chipset in them for video [05:36] AlinuxOS: I only see latin chars in your terminal (however, loading is very slow, I only see the first 20% of the pic) [05:36] pitti, when I even grep georgian strings it works [05:37] pitti, refresh please. [05:38] AlinuxOS: Glaho is not a monospaced font. It is therefore not a sensible font to use in a terminal. It'll /work/, it'll just be ugly. [05:38] So we have to ship Courier [05:38] Which means we have to fix the fontconfig configuration [05:38] pitti, it works even when I grep georgian text. [05:39] (If I have to point this out again, I'm going to scream) [05:39] mjg59, :) Oooops :) [05:39] ok ok ok [05:39] We Will Fix fontconfig! :) [05:40] i dont even understand fontconfig [05:40] and ive got a resonable grasp of how lots of things work under debian/ubuntu [05:41] oh no, im confusing that with defoma [05:41] which seems like another scary mess [05:41] mjg59,I'm sorry , sometimes I think that there is more easy methods... but you must consider that I'm newbie ;) so don't be angry with me :) [05:42] pitti, has some experience with me.... sometmes he even don't understands me === xxenon [i=xxenon@81.13.239.65] has joined #ubuntu-devel [05:43] dieman, :) I'm not even a programmer :) [05:43] so you can understand that I have many problems.. [05:43] hrm. georgian is pretty. [05:43] and most problems has technique refference. [05:43] AlinuxOS: When you type your name, look how there's a large gap between the first character and the second character [05:43] That's why you need Courier [05:43] I have no base, to build then [05:44] other lanaguages have their standarts..and [05:44] people simply translate into rosetta. [05:44] but with georgian thing are more complicated.. [05:44] :( [05:45] doko, maybe you are online ? [05:49] mjg59, everything is clear, thank you for your time.. [05:49] you've right...there is ugly spaces between charachters. [05:49] mjg59, be sure that when there will 100% GNOME translated into my native language...

Ok for me to upload this? === olemke [n=olemke@p54895E59.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:28] mdz: (very pathological case of UVF, though) === zAo^ [n=zao@zAo.xs4all.nl] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:32] carlos: ping [06:33] mantiena-baltix: you to make sure that config_office/configure finds the correct headers [06:33] pitti: in any case where you are upstream, the version number is irrelevant so long as you are making changes appropriate for the freeze state [06:34] mdz: yes, I would take the two bug fixes anyway [06:34] mdz: oh, and one is already there as a patch from mjg59 [06:34] alright, thanks === earobinson222 [n=earobins@HSE-Toronto-ppp317033.sympatico.ca] has joined #ubuntu-devel === AlinuxOS [n=Ubuntu@d83-176-5-22.cust.tele2.it] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:38] mjg59, here ? [06:38] :) I understand font choosing criterium [06:39] maybe it will help to solve this problem [06:39] seb128: you remember the bug I told you about "no mouse click" [06:39] doko, btw, should xmlsecurity subproject build in 2.0.2rc ? It seems now we use external xmlsec1 libraries from Ubuntu, they are in build-deps [06:39] I have it in a xnest-window [06:39] do you think that I can do something to see where the problem is ? [06:39] whoa, i didn't know cdimage.ubuntu.com has a vmware image handy === Amaranth_ [n=travis@216.159.64.253] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:43] bah, this new firefox 'just open without asking' behaviour is awful [06:45] pitti: Thanks for your feedback. Post it to ubuntu-devel. I will put it back if everyone hates it, I promise. [06:46] oh, sorry, wasn't meant as a blame [06:46] Originally I did it because (a) it seemed sane to me and (b) DefaultApplicationsFirefox said so and (c) sabdfl wanted it too. [06:46] it just breaks clicking on links in any application [06:46] No, no, that's fine, do grumble. Feedback is good. [06:46] Diziet: hmm, (c) is a compelling reason :) === zul [n=chuck@ubuntu/member/zul] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:46] pitti: how? [06:46] But perhaps I should make it only do it in ff and not elsewhere ? All things are possible. [06:47] ploum: no real idea on that, nop [06:47] Diziet: whenever I encounter an URL to a tarball in my mutt, xchat, or whereever, I usually want to download the file [06:47] sabdfl: ^ [06:47] same for me [06:47] pitti: set your default behaviour to be different, then [06:47] I download all the tarball from evo [06:47] now I need to open the browser [06:47] some hours ago I wanted to download a different file type, and nothing happened at all, I jsut got an empty tab [06:47] stop the download, go to the folder and right click [06:48] hmm... so the problem is that it is opening up a tarball viewer? [06:48] it opens file-roller for me yep [06:48] sabdfl: ... or nothing at all [06:48] but I want to package the new tarball, not to browse it, so usually I just save it on the desktop [06:48] hmm. fair enough, that's not good [06:49] One alternative to the current thing would be to list explicitly the content-types that should be opened immediately. === pitti tries to remember the file type that caused to just produce an empty tab [06:49] seb128: does file-roller not let you save a copy of the file? [06:49] but i suspect that you can change the default behaviour yourself for specific types, right? [06:49] evince does that, it's nice [06:49] sabdfl: I guess so [06:49] sabdfl: Yes, but not via the UI. You have to mess in about:config. [06:49] Diziet: really? in thunderbird there's a nice prefs page for it [06:49] in epiphany too [06:50] There's View & Edit Actions I suppose. [06:50] mdz: there is "save as", yep, but I was not sure if it was going to make a new .tar.gz and maybe changing the md5 from upstream ... I should try :) [06:50] But you still have to know the mime type. [06:50] Save as should save it. [06:50] seb128: yeah, it would probably repack it [06:50] Edit->Preferences->Downloads->View & Edit Actions [06:50] edit -> preferences -> downloads -> view and edit actions? [06:50] ploum: epiphany is broken by that change [06:50] snap snap snap [06:51] the new pref is unknow by the other browsers === dholbach pets the poor epiphany [06:51] I don't see why having the pref unknown by the other browsers is per se a problem. [06:51] What you mean, surely, is that the new behaviour is a problem. [06:51] seb128: indeed. That's what I tried to say [06:52] Diziet: because that breaks them until we teach them about the pref and how to use it === hunger [n=tobias@p54A63C8F.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has left #ubuntu-devel [] [06:52] seb128: Why does it break them ? [06:52] I mean, I understand that it breaks epiphany because it already has a different pref for the same thing and a GUI to set it. [06:53] But why would it break some more naive embedder ? [06:53] because epiphany expects standard firefox behaviour [06:53] and acts according to that [06:53] I've not said it breaks every embedder [06:53] but it breaks galeon too the same way [06:53] Because galeon also has a pref for the same thing ? [06:53] yep [06:54] That is, a different pref for the same thing. [06:54] So they're really working around the deficiency in gecko, aren't they ? [06:54] Maybe the right thing would be to push this new pref upstream and make galeon and epiphany use/set it instead of their own ? [06:54] sort of yep [06:54] correct [06:55] I'm not sure we have enough of a grip on the situation for that. I mean really, that I have enough of a grip on the situation. [06:55] So is there code in g. and ep. that mirrors the code in gecko ? [06:55] we just have to consider that having a distro specific way is an issue for upstream [06:55] and force us to patch others packages too === zAo^ [n=zao@zAo.xs4all.nl] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:56] It's definitely a problem if we have to patch naive embedders (of which there are several? yelp etc.) === AlinuxOS [n=Ubuntu@d83-176-5-22.cust.tele2.it] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:56] yelp just use gecko for rendering, that should be fine [06:56] But if it's just a couple who've already added complex wart on top of the gecko lack-of-feature then I don't feel so bad about that. [06:57] I only knows about epiphany and galeon beeing broken by the change atm [06:57] As it happens yelp never triggers this because the help files never have any externally handled content types. [06:57] and yelp has no option for that [06:57] so it would just follow firefox behaviour [06:57] Right, so if it did have any such types it would DTRT. === janimo [n=jani@Home03207.cluj.astral.ro] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:57] So it sounds like having g. and ep. override the gecko pref would be sufficient. [06:58] correct [06:58] I think that's the correct workaround for now. [06:58] but upstream is not wanting to make special case for every distro around doing his custom hack [06:58] I shall try a bit harder to punt my patch upstream. I sent it to the Debian people with a note saying `dunno if you want this' but I haven't sent it directly upstream yet. [06:58] s/his/its [06:58] that would be nice [06:59] seb128: So we make the pref change in Ubuntu. We have facilities for that, don't we ? === ogra_ [n=ogra@p5089E401.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:59] if the feature goes upstream that's better for everybody [06:59] Yes, certainly, which is why we should try to get it upstream. But in the meantime we have to solve our Ubuntu problem. [07:00] we can patch epiphany/galeon, some people will still doing local builds for testing stuff, or because they jhbuild GNOME, or other and bug upstream but that's not a big deal [07:00] So, FYI, in case you didn't know, the pref is browser.helperApps.defaultNoAsk.openFile and you just need to set it to false. [07:00] k [07:00] I'll patch epiphany and galeon so [07:00] Can I get you to write up a mail to ubuntu-devel CC relevant people explaining this decision ? [07:00] Or should I do that ? [07:01] do we need to use the ML where we have a laucnhpad bug with revelant people Cced? [07:01] We should have some record of it so that in 6 months' time we're not "err, dunno, I remember there was a reason, um". [07:01] I've already pointed the bug on the list === _mvo_ [n=egon@p54A66D70.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [07:01] I think a list posting is a lot more findable than an LP bug. You could mail it to both. [07:02] I've already mailed the list friday pointing to the issue and the launchpad bug about it [07:02] (more findable> hopefully LP's searching will improve but for now it's a bit of a swamp.) [07:02] I'm sure one nice clear coherent mail won't upset anyone. [07:02] but I've no objection to follow on the list [07:02] k [07:02] Do CC the bug too of course. [07:02] There's nothing wrong with a crosspost between list and bug. [07:02] ah right, we can do that with launchpad :) [07:03] I'm used to bugzilla [07:03] (Not sure if LP will cope properly but we can fix things up if the mails go to the wrong places.) [07:03] (Probably the only problem is that the copies coming via LP will have the headers mangled so you can't tell the crosspost, so mention it in the body of your mail.) [07:03] right [07:05] Wouldn't it be better to have it default to off and have a post-install (or profile creation, whatever) turn it on? [07:05] I wanted to enable it for existing profiles. [07:06] make it an upgrade note? [07:06] seb128, Diziet: FWIW, the 'Save as' in file-roller is disabled when I open a tar.gz URL from a terminal [07:06] you're breaking the platform so you can save upgraders a little hassle [07:06] I don't think I am breaking the platform. [07:07] if it's broken, then it's equally so for upgraders and fresh-installers; this is a *good* thing [07:07] I'm breaking some rather hacky extra features added on top of the gecko builtin UI. [07:07] it means we don't miss out on hearing about problems because only fresh-installers notice [07:07] By as far as we know only two very complex embedders. [07:07] pitti: weird, it works when I open one from nautilus here [07:08] Is it possible for someone to distribute a binary-only app that uses the gecko in Ubuntu (but isn't Ubuntu specific)? [07:08] mvo: InstallProgress.waitChild() spins rather unpleasantly on os.waitpid() [07:08] Amaranth: non patched build expecting the upstream behaviour will be screwed if that's what we ask [07:09] amaranth: Yes, and I think those apps should work just fine unless they try to second-guess the external content type dialogue (read: unless they try to fix the bug I'm fixing here). [07:09] Yes, that's what I'm asking. [07:09] mvo: it would be nice if it only tried to waitpid on receipt of SIGCHLD, or at least slept a bit between calls, or something ... [07:09] It's just the usual case that if you fix a bug in a more-core place you break workarounds accreted elsewhere. [07:09] the first would be ideal but is obviously more fiddly [07:09] Diziet: Got a bug open upstream with the patch? I'd like to follow it. === Kamion has a 26MB strace to wade through now [07:10] amaranth: No, and I'm trying to fight grub and Xen today instead of getting sucked into ff again but please email me and I'll add you to the CC when I file it. [07:13] Diziet, there is no /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/xpidl anymore ? [07:14] Urrr. [07:14] It's in /usr/lib/firefox now. [07:14] Why ? [07:15] i'm just trying to make a testbuild of vlc, it fails searching for it ... [07:15] Sometimes I feel as if I spend my entire life plumbing bits of debconf together. [07:15] Do you know why it's looking there ? [07:15] (needed for the plugin it seems) [07:15] It's probably some remnant /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox reference in some package file or .pc or something. === jlje [n=agp@207.67.194.249] has joined #ubuntu-devel [07:16] Diziet, no idea ... i added four lines to the screensaver handling :) [07:16] If you can find out where it's getting that path from and it's in one of the firefox packages do file a bug and I'll fix it. [07:16] :-) Sorry I made your program bitrot ... [07:16] might simply be an old build ... [07:16] its from new years eve [07:18] fantastic post about the lack of configuration files for PCMCIA in the new world order [07:18] http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-pcmcia/2006-February/003300.html [07:18] FF build from NYE ? That is very old.

[08:04] the current list is 15 I think [08:04] elmo: i would check the 2 initrds to see if they are different [08:04] mdz: DPL elections campaigning is on, and someone asks questions like "What do you think of Ubuntu" [08:04] elmo: and possibly if mdy is updated at the same level [08:04] jvw: yes, Raphael did I think [08:04] indeed [08:04] as one of the candidates, I'm of course answering... [08:04] that could be hard, mdy being the part timer he is, has left for the night [08:04] am I right in assuming breezy's kernel won't work with dapper? [08:05] elmo: it might...

[08:43] Kamion, any eta on xfce main promotion, and cd build? thanks [08:45] mvo: CDs are on http://releases.ubuntu.com/ [08:45] mvo: yes, it should really link to releases for the rest [08:45] janimo: erm, not yet, sorry, I'll try to look at it this week for you [08:46] aha, thanks [08:46] Kamion, thanks === godiane [n=godiane@210.5.105.45] has joined #ubuntu-devel === mako_ [n=mako@bork.hampshire.edu] has joined #ubuntu-devel === _mvo_ [n=egon@p54A66D70.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel === HiddenWolf [n=HiddenWo@136.204.dynamic.phpg.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [08:59] kamion: Tnx a lot for tips, you were invaluable, I'll watch your scripts (I miss enter key 1 hour ago.... dinner caught me :-) ) === trulux [n=lorenzo@unaffiliated/trulux] has joined #ubuntu-devel [09:01] GRR [09:01] GRR GRR GRR GRR HATE [09:01] elmo: who? what? where? why? [09:02] how? === mammadori [n=marco@host67-105.pool8254.interbusiness.it] has left #ubuntu-devel ["Konversation] [09:07] (for anyone following along at home, my problem was #32123, but I didn't get a backup of the broken initrd.img) [09:08] so infinity has passed?! [09:08] and I missed it. === reggaemanu [n=manu@ARennes-257-1-118-171.w86-210.abo.wanadoo.fr] has joined #ubuntu-devel [09:17] 58/152 0:09:28 [09:17] go bzr go! === sivang pushes bzr === reggaemanu [n=manu@ARennes-257-1-118-171.w86-210.abo.wanadoo.fr] has joined #ubuntu-devel [09:20] yes, you are almos there, just a little bit more [09:20] copy 97/152 0:04:00 [09:23] sivang: you sound so excited. is this your first push? [09:24] mvo: ehehe [09:24] sivang: looking at this number, you will rather be annoyed, I guess [09:24] mvo: actually it's a re-branch... I have diverted accidently so I need to check/merge [09:24] sivang: the very first push to a remote site should still better be done with tar/scp/untar === pitti went back to the rsync push for some projects [09:25] pushes are a bit quikcer. [09:25] i need to try the new push code [09:26] well, from the crappy net connection I have here, sftp works finr for the pushes, I might need to switch back to rsync for the pulling [09:27] mjg59: I tried recompiling with --with-rgb-path, but compilation breaks for me at some point. are there any dependenices that are not specified in the source control file? [09:28] mjg59: (talking about pkg:xserver-xgl) [09:28] not really a devel question, but might anyone know the size in GB of the complete package archive at archive.ubuntu.com for all archs and ports, etc...? [09:31] yay, it finshed [09:32] sivang: There should be no extra dependencies, otherwise it wouldn't get built by the buildds [09:34] mjg59: I thought about it, and couldn't get why it fails on my machine...I think it said it was missing some utility which names was in CAPS, not sure. I will recheck and report back. Are you ware of the emacs problem? (unkonw color err) [09:35] Yes, it's because of the lacking rgb.txt [09:36] mjg59: where do you reckon it expects it? I tried putting it for him in all possilbe locations. (/usr/.. /etc/.. etc) [09:36] s/him/it/ [09:36] It wants it in /usr/share, I believe [09:37] mgalvin: I think I asked that questions once, seemed like the guess was somewhere around 20 GB, but I could be way off. [09:38] mjg59: will be review a diff package I will create for adding the necessary configure options to debian/rules and upload if appropriate? [09:39] LaserJock: thanks, for the time being i may try to mirror it myself to get an acurate number [09:39] mgalvin: yikes [09:40] well i need to know, so worth the effort for now :) [09:40] sivang: If it works, yes [09:41] LaserJock: hopefully my ISP doesn't get too mad ;) [09:42] mgalvin: I just hope you have a good connection ;-) [09:44] LaserJock: i get around 500-700kB/s on a cable connection so it should not take *too* long === herzi [n=herzi@d044150.adsl.hansenet.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel [09:54] does anyone mind if I upload a new ubuntu-meta? [09:55] mvo, any changes for edubuntu-meta i'd miss ? [09:56] ogra: no idea, I don't know a lot about edubuntu ... [09:56] whats changed in ubuntu-meta ? [09:57] mjg59: btw, why do you ship the configure results in the source package? (isn't it better to leave it un configure'd, so when changes are introduced in the rules file, those will menifest in the resulting auto foo with a need for a manual run?) [09:57] ogra: I can put the changes on a pastebin, give me a bit === ispiked_ [n=ispiked@Lee-11-133.rh.ncsu.edu] has joined #ubuntu-devel [09:57] mjg59: s/with/without/ [09:57] mvo, only if they differ much with my edubuntu-meta upload from today [09:59] ogra: you should be able to tell by the pastebin, no? [09:59] dholbach, sure, i but looking aat the mail on -chqanges would be less work for mvo :) [10:00] i think not [10:00] sivang: Hm. make distclean ought to get rid of them, so I'm confused as to how they would end up in there. [10:01] Kamion: could gdebi get promotion to main please? [10:01] mjg59, hello, is it planified to upgrade xgl and compiz packages (and adding libsvg and libsvg-cairo)? [10:02] ogra: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9554 [10:02] reggaemanu: Not right now, Xgl requires CVS mesa [10:02] mvo, thats contained in my upload already, thanks [10:03] ogra: cheers, gdebi is waiting for promotion, once it's in main, that is added to the list as well [10:03] I'll look into compiz [10:03] mjg59, ok, and just a modified xgl package with rgbpath set ? [10:03] mvo, you had that here too ... [10:03] s/you/yup/ [10:04] here? [10:04] mjg59: make distclean failes for me with a fresh src I just grabbed. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9555 [10:04] sivang: Uhm. In that case, it's not configured. [10:05] mvo, here in blankenheim in the list of updates when i updated edubuntu-meta ... [10:06] ogra: aha, ok [10:06] ogra: sorry for being slow, it's late here :) [10:06] haha [10:06] not here [10:07] I though so :-D [10:11] mjg59: this is what I get when autogen'ing it, do I need to switch the automake version? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/9556 [10:12] Why are you autogening it? [10:12] mvo: erm, sorry, I'm just here really briefly and don't expect to be around when the publisher next finishes (which is when my window opens for promotions) [10:13] sivang: You need CVS X build macros to be able to do that [10:13] mvo: gdebi's lacking a main inclusion report; doesn't it need one, or did mdz exempt it? === sistpoty [n=sistpoty@ubuntu/member/sistpoty] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:14] Kamion: I didn't, but it shouldn't need much more than a second pair of eyes [10:15] if pitti's looked at it already, that's enough for me, I just don't remember whether he has or not [10:16] elmo: please sync bum (2.1.5-1) from unstable, no ubuntu specific changes present. thx. === koke [n=koke@ubuntu/member/koke] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:22] Kamion: I was told we don't need them for apps we have written ourselfs, no? [10:22] Kamion: I can ask pitti to have a look first of course === HiddenWolf [n=HiddenWo@136.204.dynamic.phpg.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:30] mjg59: ping? === janimo [n=jani@Home03207.cluj.astral.ro] has left #ubuntu-devel [] === sbodo [n=sbodo@84.236.5.74] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:33] LaserJock: Hi [10:35] mjg59: do you much experience with licenses, I was searching debian-legal and your name popped up [10:35] LaserJock: Some, yeah [10:35] mjg59: I'm particularly interested in the Common Public License [10:35] and it's DFSGness [10:36] LaserJock: I believe it's fine [10:36] LaserJock, is that the IBM one? [10:37] mjg59: is there a website that lists DFSG free licenses, I tried doing some googling but I'm not quite sure what I'm looking for exactly [10:38] LaserJock: There isn't, no [10:38] does anyone know if pmount has something close to a python api to be able to mount from python applications? [10:38] mjg59: ok, that's fine. I'm just trying to get a package moved from multiverse to universe and I wanted to sound somewhat intelligent when I emailed elmo [10:39] Burgwork: something like that, I'm not sure [10:43] or, otherwise I just need to subprocess.call() it? === godiane [n=godiane@210.5.105.45] has joined #ubuntu-devel === ozamosi_ [n=ozamosi@h150n2c1o1049.bredband.skanova.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel === lemsx1 [n=lemsx1@p86-65.acedsl.com] has left #ubuntu-devel [] === ozamosi [n=nnnnozam@h150n2c1o1049.bredband.skanova.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel === lfittl [n=lfittl@85-125-150-207.dynamic.xdsl-line.inode.at] has joined #ubuntu-devel === ozamosi_ [n=ozamosi@h150n2c1o1049.bredband.skanova.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel === sbodo [n=sbodo@84.236.5.74] has left #ubuntu-devel [] === ozamosi [n=nnnnnoza@h150n2c1o1049.bredband.skanova.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel === sabdfl [n=mark@ubuntu/member/pdpc.silver.sabdfl] has joined #ubuntu-devel [11:25] mvo: I've promoted gdebi now; will be available in an hour or so [11:25] Kamion: cool, thanks a lot [11:25] as you say, we wrote it ourselves, pitti can look over it later if need be === ubuntoy [n=sophie@host-222-126-67-83.dhcp.infocom.ph] has joined #ubuntu-devel === ubuntoy [n=sophie@host-222-126-67-83.dhcp.infocom.ph] has left #ubuntu-devel [] === freeflying-ibook [n=freeflyi@61.190.65.25] has joined #ubuntu-devel [11:29] mvo: does the dist-upgrade tool force gnome debconf? === GmanZZZ is now known as Gman [11:30] mvo: I just had mine error out because postgres-* was trying to display a not via gnome debconf, but gnome libraries weren't in a usable state [11:30] a note too [11:32] debconf's gnome frontend should generally fall back itself, but there was a bug in lib{glib,gtk}-perl (can't remember which) in dapper a while ago that meant it couldn't [11:32] mvo: I think I have asked this a hundred of times, but I always forgot... where is the current repo of update-manager?? [11:32] elmo: yes, it forces it. I got a bugreport about that (gnome debconf not usable) before [11:32] s/before/recently/ [11:33] koke: haha, no problem. it's http://people.ubuntu.com/~mvo/bzr/update-manager--dapper/ for the current dapper version [11:34] and http://people.ubuntu.com/~mvo/bzr/update-manager--mvo/ for the current devel tree. that one contains some ui fixesin the software-properties window, that may be too risky for dapper. I will discuss that at the ui sprint [11:34] elmo: it's now on my MUSTFIX list [11:34] elmo: did the upgrade-tool otherwise worked? === Se7h [n=MUAHAHAH@bl4-83-161.dsl.telepac.pt] has joined #ubuntu-devel [11:36] koke: do you plean to hack on it (again)? that would be wonderful :) [11:37] mvo: I have some ideas :) [11:37] actually not mine. I've been using osx for some time and I like their update system [11:38] mvo: apart from the career-destroying initrd SNAFU, yeah, but I doubt that's update-manager's problem [11:38] elmo: I like to blame the packages for any failures :P [11:39] koke: nice, I'm looking forward for cool stuff from you :) [11:39] hmm, this new font or whatever is messing with my brain [11:39] I assume the lack of pretty cursors is a known thing? === mvo wonders if a bzr from breezy can get a current bzr tree [11:40] elmo: yeah its been that way for some time [11:40] elmo: if you just give it a poke in system - prefs - mouse - pointers, its back [11:40] mvo: I think it should, still [11:40] hello tseng [11:40] hey andrew [11:41] ajmitch_: yes it does. pretty amazing stuff that bzr (I use 0.1.1 to get the archive) [11:41] mvo: an interesting thing from osx. Instead of download updates in the background, the option is to download important (security, I presume) updates in the background [11:41] mvo: I've been using it a lot lately, very happy with it :) [11:41] ajmitch_: are you using push now? [11:42] tseng: currently not, though I've used it in the past [11:42] ajmitch_: yes, I'm pretty happy with it as well. I switched synaptic over recently. and once that stupid baz-import for apt finises that one will be bzr too [11:42] mvo: another one is to group non-important updates in a combined update (like 'Ubuntu 6.X update 2006-06-12') [11:42] ubuntu bug 6 in gdb "gdb package contains non-free GNU FDL documentation" [Normal,Resolved: notwarty] http://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=6 [11:42] mvo: sadly the selinux debian packaging will be using arch, so I think I'll have to use baz2bzr to stay sane [11:42] koke: oh, interessting. we will have a "install security upgrades" for dapper, but that not silently download only those [11:42] and have a small translated changelog [11:43] ajmitch_: id almost rather upstreams use svn over baz [11:43] ajmitch_: i feel bad saying that. [11:44] koke: another nice idea. only this aggregation makes translated changelogs feasbile IMHO [11:44] otherwise it is too much work [11:44] for the translators === mvo prepares for bedtime [11:44] yep, also the description can be done while fixing the package to be ready when uploading it [11:46] mjg59: your shiny new toy is in elmo's hands [11:48] mvo: ok, I'll tell you more [11:48] mvo: btw, what's that ui sprint thing? [11:48] mjg59: i'm in the market for a new laptop, x60 is delayed till March 21st, any suggestions for stuff you don't have and would like to test? [11:49] sabdfl: what kind of toy is that? :-) [11:49] koke: it's about a get-togehter for polishing the UI for dapper. final touches, that kind of stuff [11:49] imac [11:49] sabdfl: Rock. Any chance of getting it sent up here? [11:49] ah , cool [11:50] koke: please tell me tomorrow, I'm already half asleep :) [11:50] sabdfl: March 21st? Suck. A Core Duo machine of some sort would be good. [11:50] mvo: ok, I have lots of comments :) === Arrogance [n=aks@ottawa-hs-209-217-119-121.d-ip.magma.ca] has joined #ubuntu-devel [11:50] mjg59: sure, just ask elmo for it, and can we have it back for the office please? [11:50] sabdfl: Indeed [11:50] koke: cool, that is *good* :) [11:51] mvo: ui polish sprint? where? [11:51] sabdfl: Dell are shipping the Inspiron 9400, I'm not sure if any of the other major manufacturers have one out yet [11:51] I can't find any from HP or Sony, FWIW [11:51] sony has them. in japan. [11:52] would have bought one but the keyboard was bake-your-noodle material [11:52] mjg59: I assume cvd has your shipping details? [11:53] sabdfl: you can remap it if you know the layout :) [11:53] it's also good for improve typing speed [11:53] elmo: Yup [11:53] mjg59: how predictable are the Windows keys on keyboards and laptops? [11:54] sabdfl: In what way? [11:54] They always generate the same scancodes [11:54] it would be nice if we could map them to fire up the K menu, or the G applications menu [11:54] Oh, I see what you mean === sivang nods [11:54] nice, that is, for windows users [11:54] thats trivial ... [11:54] sabdfl, it would be also nice to map some of the other windowskey+key codes as well [11:55] Burgwork: i don't know them... tell? [11:55] sabdfl, ie, if you simply press and release the windows key, you get the start menu, but if you hold it, you can use it like a ctrl or alt [11:55] sabdfl: In Gnome, just set the "Show the panel menu" shortcut to that [11:55] win+m for minimise all, for example [11:55] such as W+e launches explorer and w+r for the run command [11:55] ctrl-alt-del for the system-monitor ? [11:55] w+l for locking the screen [11:56] I've got an Intel iMac if anybody needs some testing [11:56] LaserJock: Kamion seemed somewhat interested, but i doubt its much good to him remotely, at this stage [11:57] tseng: hmm, I don't think the boss would let me send it to him ;-) [11:57] LaserJock: will you test the Flight 5 CD on it? [11:57] sabdfl: I will if it works ;-) [11:57] sabdfl: flight 5 wont be very useful afaik [11:57] Flight 6 perhaps [11:57] You can't boot iso9660 CDs on them [11:58] someone will have to get a box at canonical and do the dirty work of hacking elilo [11:58] and vesafb [11:58] It'll have to be a separate CD image for Dapper, for +1 we can probably manage a CD that'll do both [11:58] sabdfl: if you guys get Ubuntu to work on macintels and all the i386 stuff works then you'll doing great. Fink and darwin ports are really giving me troubles [11:59] sabdfl: Ok, Dell claim to be shipping the 9400 in the UK. It's a Centrino Duo platform, so it's pretty similar to the new Thinkpads.
