LeeJunFanI finished setting up my library like that today, 22 diskless workstations. But with 22 workstations and the possibility of many of them running openoffice at the same time I don't think I could buy enough RAM for the server, and the PC's are all new and fast with enough RAM, so let them to the processing work.02:59

bddebianinfinity: Well I am trying to set up a repository and was hoping you'd take mercy on me and help me?03:31
infinityDefine "set up"... You want to create a Packages.gz and a Sources.gz from a bunch of files in a directory (man dpkg-scan{packages,sources}), do the same for a bunch of files in a tree (man apt-ftparchive), or set up something that allows uploads and does publishing (apt-cache show mini-dinstall)?03:32
bddebianI want to pull Ubuntu source packages, tweak them a little, dput them up and have them in /pool/main/foo/bar03:33
=== dudus [n=dudus@200.245.31.150] has joined #ubuntu-devel
infinityThen you want mini-dinstall, probably.03:34
=== dudus [n=dudus@200.245.31.150] has left #ubuntu-devel ["Leaving"]
infinityOr "dak" (which is what Debian uses), but you could spend weeks/months learning how dak works, which is why mini-dinstall was written. :)03:34
bddebianWell that's wehre I'm getting a little lost.  mini-dinstall, dinstall, dak, reprepo...03:34
infinitydak is serious overkill.03:35
jdubChipzz: for a long time there's been a good relationship between the *developers*, but it has started eroding recently.03:35
infinityIt's meant for massive installations (like Debian, or like Ubuntu, before we switched to Launchpad)03:35
_ionI found reprepro to be very nice.03:36
bddebianinfinity: Right, but mini-dinstall won't create the binaries right?  Or am I lost as usual?03:36
bddebian_ion: Yeah?03:36
infinitybddebian: Erm, "create the binaries"?  You mean, you also want a build daemon?03:36
bddebianWell that was my question.  I assume I need one?03:36
infinitybddebian: Just do source+binary uploads to your mini-dinstall repo. (using whatveer you want to do binary builds, pbuilder, sbuild, whatever you're comfy with)03:36
_ionNicer than mini-dinstall IMHO.03:37
bddebianWell it will be basically a copy of xubuntu03:37
infinitybddebian: If you really need build daemons, you need more than a "quick chat" with me, I suspect.03:37
bmontybddebian: mini-dinstall works great and is fairly easy to set up03:37
bddebianbmonty: I know for local, but I'm looking at 1800/1900 packages :-)03:37
infinityI tend to prefer mini-dinstall too, since it behaves a bit like dak, which I'm comfy with.03:38
infinityBut to each their own.03:38
infinitybddebian: If you're only building for one arch, just do source+binary uploads to your repo.  Trust me, that's MUCH less hassle than also maintaining some sort of buildd infrastructure for one user.03:39
infinitybddebian: If you're doing multiple arches, you can either feed them all manually, or you may want to start looking at wanna-build, but it's not simple (and without some heavy tweaking, wanna-build will want a dak installation to hang out with)03:40
bddebianinfinity: Well eventually I hope it's more than one user.. :-)03:40
infinitybddebian: One user uploading was what I meant.03:40
bddebianOh, hehe03:41

Chipzzjdub: I realise the irony in my statement (in that I'm "trolling" myself), but note the ";)P" (ie don't take to seriously); but I guess it's mostly individuals, not the whole (kde and/or gnome) community at alrgew03:45
=== Lathiat laughs
Kamioninfinity: any other useful hacking I can think of would be near-term usable by Ubuntu and thus qualify as work not relaxation ;-)03:45
infinityKamion: Hahaha.03:45
Kamionand I'm an installer hacker, I like making systems boot when they really don't want to and putting stuff together from tiny pieces all over the floor03:45
infinitySo, what's so mystical about booting the Hurd?... Is grub still the only bootloader that knows how to boot it, so you have to chain syslinux to grub?03:47
infinityOr are we talking failure much later on, like "the system, once booted, refuses to talk to the CD properly", or some such?03:48
Kamionno point chaining syslinux to grub, just boot straight from grub03:48
Kamionthe mystical bit is getting it to boot from CD and have a writable root filesystem03:49
Kamionbecause it has no initrd concept as such03:49
bddebianinfinity: So mini-dinstall will handle binary+source uploads coming in to incoming?03:49
infinitybddebian: That's the theory, yes.03:49
bddebiantheory? :-)03:49
infinitybddebian: Since binary+source is the Debian standard, and mini-dinstall was written to run on people.debian.org, I'm going to go with "yes". :)03:49
infinitybddebian: (I say theory a lot, when I really mean, "try it yourself, I know it works, but you won't beleive me anyway until you make it go on your own")03:50
Kamionyou have to set up a ramdisk translator on the fly that's backed by the compressed filesystem on the CD, before you really get the rest of the Hurd running at all03:50
bddebianAnd we have issues with ramdisk/tmpfs :-(03:50
infinityKamion: That does kinda sound like fun.03:50
Kamionit's not conceptually difficult, but the pieces involved are so much different from Linux that it's tricky to get your head around03:50
Kamionbddebian: oh?03:50
Chipzzinfinity: is the hurd actually usefull for anything yet? ;)03:50
infinityKamion: Too bad I have my own useless port to look after (one that actually installs, boots, runs, and has 95% of the archive built), or I'd be interested.03:51
bddebianinfinity: Hurd boots and runs :-)03:51
infinitybddebian: LIES.03:51
infinitybddebian: Does it stay up for more than a few days now?03:51
Kamionmind you I quit looking at tmpfs as such and started looking at an insane pure-menu.lst storeio-based hack I found Roland McGrath posting about in 1998 or something03:51
bddebianAnd if people didn't use freaking PATH_MAX, MAXPATHLEN, et al, we'd probably have about 95% of the archive too :-)03:51
infinitybddebian: (while doing anything strenuous, like running a buildd)03:51
_ionchipzz: You can ping localhost.03:51
bddebianinfinity: http://www.bddebian.com runs on it, check the uptime :-)03:52
bddebianOf course it has like 0 load :-)03:52
infinityYeah, I'll reiterate the "strenuous" bit.03:52
_ionbddebian: Try running cpuburn for a while. :-)03:52

bddebian_ion: All I have to do is build glibc ;-P03:52

jdub"does your blog have to abide by the CoC if you're on puc?"03:56
bddebianinfinity: Fair enough :-)03:56
Kamionthe other reason to look at porting d-i to the Hurd is general portability03:56

infinityKamion: Have the kfreebsd folk done much to get d-i going there yet?03:56
jdubmjg59: you have not asked for either of your blogs to be on puc03:56
Kamionit's a port that's reasonably accessible from the Debian point of view, but yet gives us the opportunity to start looking at the rampant Linuxisms scattered throughout d-i03:57

mjg59jdub: I never post to one, and you refused to put the other on pgo03:57

Kamioninfinity: AFAIK they'd have similar booting fun, though it's been a while since I talked about it with mjg5903:57
infinityjdub: Not IMO... I'd like a certain amount of relevance in my planet, I don't want to read about how J Random Developer just spent the weekend flossing his grandmother's cows.03:57
jdubmjg59: this is a bitter stalemate that we may only be able to solve with tequila and blades attached to our fingers03:57
infinityjdub: I want some technical/social relevance to the planet in question.03:58
bddebianWTF? Canonical registered GNUbuntu??03:58
jdubinfinity: culture killer03:58
infinityjdub: It may also help to note that I'm not a big fan of planets anyway. :)03:58
infinity(5 people whose blogs I find interesting, 45 people who I don't care about, I'd be better off reading the 5 individually)03:59
Kamionbddebian: the name's been tossed around for a long time, and we'd be happy to let people use it who were going to actually take it in plausible directions03:59
jdubgnubuntu was thought up mere moments after we talked about "hey, well, y'know, someone's just gonna add a K to that sucker..."03:59

bddebianFUCK, sometimes having to sudo everything pisses me off05:19
nekohayohas someone experienced weirdness with nm-applet lately?05:20
nekohayolike, networkManager tries to connect me to an impossible local IP (169.254.195.122)05:21
nekohayoinstead of being assigned something in 192.168.1.x05:21
bddebianThat looks like it can't find a DHCP server ( if that even makes sense)05:21
FujitsuThat means it can't get DHCP.05:23
FujitsuIt an automatically self-assigned IP.05:23
nekohayowhat could cause that?05:23
FujitsuNo DHCP server.05:23
nekohayoit's totally random it seems05:23
Burgundaviano, 169 is a defined spec for address self assignment05:24
Burgundaviawindows and OS X will also do this05:24
nekohayowhew05:24
FujitsuYes.05:24
FujitsuEverything has to, or it doesn't meet the IP specs.05:24
Burgundaviaby default, a linux machine will not, afaik05:24
_ion169.254.0.0/16 - This is the "link local" block.  It is allocated for communication between hosts on a single link.  Hosts obtain these addresses by auto-configuration, such as when a DHCP server may not be found.05:24
_ion RFC 333005:24
FujitsuLinux machines will!05:25
nekohayomy dhcp server is a simple linksys router, it always worked fine so far, it's the first time I see this05:25
_ionMy guess would be that it's used for the mdns stuff.05:25
_ionNope. "Any DNS query for a name ending with ".local." MUST be sent to the mDNS multicast address (224.0.0.251 or its IPv6 equivalent FF02::FB).05:27
nekohayowould it be safe to assume it's a software misconfiguration or..? how could I determine this?05:27
nekohayoit happens with both wired and wireless05:27
Burgundaviait might be your router05:27
bddebianGah, why doesn't proftpd wanna start as inetd?05:27
nekohayohmm05:27
nekohayoI guess I have to do a full reset to test05:27
nekohayoquestion: does nm-applet conflict with gnome's network-admin in any way? is there something I must be aware of ?05:28
nekohayoas I could not find things on that matter on the project page05:28
_ionYou should disable everything from gnome's network-admin ( from /etc/network/interfaces  except lo, of course). That way network-manager gets to do its job.05:29
nekohayook I did05:29
nekohayoI'll try restarting the router and see if that may be the problem then05:30

tritiumIs there a policy or spec on /var/run being a tmpfs, and how to handle that properly in init scripts?06:10
infinityThe "proper" way to handle it is to make sure it exists with the right ownership/permissions before your daemon starts. :)06:12
infinity(Or in the daemon itself, if you're clever)06:12
infinitys,it exists,the subdirectory you want in /var/run exists,06:13
=== tritium is not very clever, so I'll focus on your first comment. Thanks! :)
infinityNote that for (at least) everything in main, we're about to run through and fix anything that hasn't already been fixed.06:14
infinityAnd if Keybuk's feeling keen, he may do some/most/all of universe. :)06:14
tritiuminfinity: it's tor (in universe)06:14
ajmitchis keybuk really that bored?06:15
infinityajmitch: No, he's just really that responsible for changing /var/{run,lock} to tmpfs, so he gets to clean up the mess. :)06:19
infinity(If his cleaning doesn't go well, he'll get help, I suspect)06:19
ajmitchsomething to delegate to MOTUs for universe, as far as it's possible06:19
tritiumAs I learn best by example, I'll look for a package that's handling it cleanly already, and try to fix tor.06:21
infinitySure, and if you guys want to start grepping now and fixing stuff, that's less stuff for him to fix later. :)06:21
infinitytritium: apache2 has handled it for ages in its init script.06:21
tritiumthanks, infinity.  Will check it out now.06:21
infinity                # /var/run and /var/lock could be on a tmpfs06:21
infinity                [ ! -d /var/run/apache2 ]  && mkdir /var/run/apache206:21
infinity                [ ! -d /var/lock/apache2 ]  && mkdir /var/lock/apache206:21
infinity                # Make sure /var/lock/apache2 has the correct permissions06:21
infinity                chown www-data /var/lock/apache206:21
infinity(That's in the start target)06:22
tritiumThat helps :)06:22
infinityYou can get that in one shot by using "install" instead of "mkdir && chown"06:22
infinity(If you need to care about permissions)06:22
tritiumwhich I do06:23
infinitySo, for apache, I'd do "[ ! -d /var/lock/apache2 ]  && install -m 755 -o www-data /var/lock/apache2"06:25
infinity(Which I may change it to in the next upload)06:25
Mithrandiror just do install -m 755 -o www-data -d /var/lock/apache206:25

fabbionethere is a big issue with the toolchain06:48
infinityfabbione: Yeah, but I've been wanting to get my hands dirty in the parisc kernel for a while.06:48
infinity(And the toolchain)06:48
fabbionewhere in pa1.0 mode, the code cna't do jump with offset bigger than 17bit06:49
fabbionethat makes basically a bunch of kernel modules unloadable06:49
fabbioneit goes very very very very deep into the toolchain06:49
Mithrandirinfinity: we're aiming for a flight at end of next week, so I would really like to have the buildds not choking at your rebuild of death at that point.06:49
infinityMithrandir: Well, we'll either do the rebuild on the wanna-build buildds (so they don't affect you), or I'll have to talk to the LP folk to get segregation, so we can do rebuilds without affecting the distro.06:50
infinityMithrandir: At this point, the wanna-build option seems more realistic, if we want the rebuild RIGHT NOW (which we kinda do)06:50
Mithrandirinfinity: or at least being able to tell the buildds that there is more important stuff going on and if they would please drop whatever they're doing and get to useful work, that'd be nice.06:51
Mithrandirinfinity: sure, I don't mind if they're a tad slower as long as it's not "no, you can't build anything for three days because the buildds are busy".06:51
fabbioneMithrandir: did you already write and approved a spec for it?06:51
Mithrandirfabbione: is this the point where I ask you to sod off? :-)06:52
fabbioneMithrandir: it's the point in which you can autoanswer yourself that it will be done with w-b :)06:52
Mithrandirfabbione: oh, the rebuild, no I'm not responsible for that, so I'm not writing a spec for it.06:53
fabbioneMithrandir: ehhe06:53
infinityMithrandir: By "end of next week", you mean in ~7 days?06:54
=== infinity curses sparc and its Bus Errors...
fabbioneinfinity: what did BusError ?06:56
fabbionethat usually means that there is a non-64bit alligned access in mem06:56
infinityfabbione: ghc6... I'm tossing it back to see if it was random (which some are), and if it's not, it's probably an alignment issue that needs to be patched.06:57
fabbioneinfinity: ok.. mostlikely the second one06:57
fabbionetoo bad ghc6 can't fork in the build06:57

kagoudo we considere that under a dapper filesystem, ALL files must be encoded in utf-8. Or some files can be encoded in ISO8859-1 ?!09:54

infinityTo be fair, this one might be our fault. :)09:58
infinityWindows has been UTF-16 internally for a long time.09:58
_ionUTF-8 is very good for networking, file contents and file names. Handling UTF-16 strings is faster codewise.09:58
TreenaksUTF-8 is ASCII compatible (it's identical in the 7-bit range)09:58
pitti_ion: how is it faster?09:58
TreenaksUTF-16 makes ALL characters 2 bytes long09:58
Mithrandirinfinity: utf16 isn't backwards compatible in the way utf8 is (ascii) and it requires double the space for storage.09:58
hungerinfinity: utf16 is basically the unicode standard.09:58
Mithrandirinfinity: so utf8 is "better" than utf16.09:59
pittiTreenaks: how does utf16 handle characters above 0x10000 then?09:59
hungerinfinity: Utf8 is a trick to shoehorn utf16 into 8 bit.09:59

dokoseb128: can I turn off the options off again?10:40
pittirobtaylor: oh, you mean the upstream fix should cure that? well, I just meant the current ubuntu package; anyway, that's something we can sort out in dapper+1, when upgrading10:40

seb128doko: "All seems to work perfectly. This bug can be marked as fixed for me. Thank you :-)"10:40
seb128doko: what is your issue with something that "work perfectly"?10:41
robtaylorpitti: yeah, i think that http://people.ubuntu.com/~pitti/tmp/dbus-patches/patches/int64detection.diff is very broken10:41
dokoseb128: "seems" is not enough. did you _check_ this with different page orientation in the page formats?10:41
fabbioneKamion: hey dude.. i am perfectly fine with whatever change you did in partman-auto...10:41
seb128doko: ploum did and commented10:41
robtaylorpitti: its just fixing for a problem in http://people.ubuntu.com/~pitti/tmp/dbus-patches/patches/dbus-qdbusmarshall-amd64.patch, and breaking abi :/10:41
seb128doko: he was the guy who complained about it10:42
fabbioneKamion: btw.. i also got espresso running on sparc :) it exits at the keyboard selector, but i will get there :)10:42
seb128doko: why of why want you to put the bug back if nobody complain and some people commented it works for him?10:42

pittirobtaylor: ok, can you point me to the better fix for qdbusmarshall?10:42
seb128doko: that's better than having people not testing anything10:42

seb128doko: k, I'll not bother again for openoffice and users wanting to get it better, break it if you want too10:46
mvorobtaylor: have you tried building it on a amd64 without the patch?10:46
robtaylormvo: qt maint has, says it works10:47
seb128doko: remove that option again without reason, ploum will complain and search for an openoffice1 package to install and you will be happy10:47
robtaylor(0.61 this is)10:47

mvorobtaylor: which one? the int64detection.diff? or the other one?10:49
fabbioneit's more important for me to get X autoconfig going properly10:49
fabbionebut now i have the tools to do so10:49
robtaylormvo: int64detection.diff breaks abi10:50
robtaylormvo: i think10:50
mvorobtaylor: why? it shouldn't matter10:50
pittiKamion: I just noticed that I forgot to remove python-gdchart from the server seed; this was the only place which still refered to it (which prevented it to appear in anastacia, I guess); is there an associated metapacakage that I need to update?10:51
Kamionpitti: no10:51
pittiah, so anastacia looks directly at the seeds for server?10:52
Kamionyeah10:52
Kamionwell, I mean, it always looks directly at the seeds10:52
Kamionbut sometimes there are metapackages as well10:52
pittiaah, ok10:52
robtaylormvo: it means that longlong gets used instead of long for int64 in all the interfaces, does that not change abi?10:52
Kamionlooks like it should drop out of main in the next hour, then10:52
pittiKamion: thank you10:52
infinitypitti: I'm hand-picking some builds to get gnutls11 completely gone... Should be ready to go by Monday.10:56
pittiKamion: is there a possiblity that you will need directfb in main for cdebconf or so?10:56
pittiinfinity: cool10:56
pittiinfinity: does that require some no-change uploads for evo? i. e. were the current packages built against 11, or were they just not yet built at all?10:57
pittiKamion: we seeded libdirectfb-dev, which does not have rdepends, and we could get rid of directfb and libmpeg3 (mentioned in duplicated packages) if we don't need it for the installer10:58

pittimvo: it might break ABI on other architectures10:58
robtaylorpitti: very good point10:59
pittimvo: i. e. i386 long is 4 byte, long long is 810:59
infinitypitti: Looks like only two packages (evo-exchange, and control-centre) will require rebuild uploads (for ia64), but I'll know for sure when I'm done getting hppa caught up on those rdeps.10:59
robtaylorpitti: not in that case, as its comparing against 810:59
pittirobtaylor: OTOH, using 'long' etc. to define fixed-size datatypes is a very bad idea in the first place10:59
pittirobtaylor: you should probably prefer stdint.h, with uint64_t, and so on11:00
robtaylorpitti: its a configure check on the actual size11:00
pittiah, I see11:00
pittibut still, stdint.h is easier and less prone to such bugs, isn't it?11:00
mvorobtaylor, pitti: I don't think so, the patch disables "long" as a possible 64 bit datatype, that shouldn't be a problem in any way as long long is still tested. don't get me wrong, the patch is a hack, but I don't think it breaks the abi11:00
robtaylorpitti: not necesarilly there on all dbus targets11:00

Keybukmdke: I'm still not convinced that UIFreeze and StringFreeze aren't critical-path for the DocStringFreeze02:06
Keybukso far the argument seems to be "we're nearly finished now, so we should freeze now" ... which doesn't necessate moving the freeze date02:06
mdkeKeybuk, the argument is based on translation02:07
mdkethe docs don't need more time, translation does02:07
mdkethe alternative is simply starting translation earlier than the freeze date, but it would make the freeze date pretty meaningless, since the whole point is to ensure that translators get a fair shot at the strings without them changing02:08

BenCmine's using powermac-ide05:55
infinityBenC: It'll just lock the machine hard for a few seconds at a time.05:56
dokoBenC: it's common on amd64, i.e. when unpacking OOo on a stripe array05:56
BenCthat's really odd considering 1000HZ and PREEMPT are supposed to prevent that :)05:56

BenCdoesn't seem to for mine06:08
infinityBenC: Mine's a whacky sata->pata bridge, if that makes a difference (the drive is UDMA133, hanging off the ICH6M sata controller)06:08
BenCyeah, that's possible, plus I've heard a lot of shitty things about the piix driver, especially the ata_piix one06:09

dotwaffleIf I have to mkinitrd once more with dapper, I think I am actually going to scream...08:10
Kamionmkinitr*d*?08:10
zulwelcome to the jungle..08:10
dotwaffleKamion: There are plenty of bug reports out there... The dapper 2.6.15-* kernels don't appear to have a valid initrd for a lot of machines. I know this isnt' tha place to discuss this, so I'll just grunt quietly in the corner ;)08:11
infinitydotwaffle: The place to discuss it is to file a bug on initramfs-tools telling me which module(s) your machine needs to boot that I'm not including.08:12
infinitydotwaffle: Bug reports "out there" (wherever that is) don't tend to help me much.08:12
Kamiondotwaffle: well, my point was more that you shouldn't be using mkinitrd at all with 2.6.1508:13
dotwaffleinfinity: I can't work out which module - it doesn't detect _anything_ - I've filed a comment on a pre-existing bug, I'll do a little investigation tonight and update the bug to include all the data I can.08:13
Kamionif you mean mkinitramfs (or better, update-initramfs), sure08:13
dotwaffleinfinity: tell me about it - the number of times I get bugs for Xen units with "it doesn't work" under something generic annoys me greatly.08:13
dotwaffle... didn't know there was an update-initramfs - need to get up to date on these new fangled tools =)08:14
infinitydotwaffle: Our default initramfs setup doesn't detect anything, it just throws a whole bunch of modules in a fat image and that's what you get.08:14
infinitydotwaffle: On BOOT, detection galore occurs, but that's udev, not initramfs.08:14
Kamiondotwaffle: if you're trying to use mkinitrd, that would be your problem. :-)08:15
Kamioninitrd-tools relies on devfs, which is gone08:15
dotwaffleinfinity: briefly (not to clog up the channel) when the kernel is updated, it will not boot, it gets an alert. To fix, you boot into an old kernel, then do "mkinitrd -o blah bleh" and it works. I've not tried initramfs, I'll give it a go.08:15

sebestthanx Kamion, i solved my issue09:33
wasabipalong: For what purpose?09:33
sebestMithrandir, i think that partman just took a lot of time to display the UI, and when i swtich to the other tty to see debug message, and switch back to debian-installer the framebuffer didn't accept anymore my input keys09:34
palongwasabi: I am often wondering myself if I agree with the desicion that a reboot is indeed necessary. I thought always knowing which upgrade produced the message would help me make that desicion09:34
_ionpalong: IMO that would be quite nice. Maybe something like this: notify-reboot-required is ran without parameters  just touch the reboot-required file if /var/run is tmpfs. notify-reboot-required with the package name as a parameter: echo "$1" >> /var/run/reboot-required if /var/run is tmpfs. The notifier then shows the list from the file.09:35
wasabipalong: I suspect the only reason it makes the message is if the kernel, hal, or dbus are updated.09:36
wasabior udev.09:36
palong_ion: but then all the package's postinst scripts would need modification to call the script with the parameter, no?09:36
wasabiMaybe udev.09:36
wasabiProbably not09:36
wasabiOh, looks like there's more than that now.09:37
wasabiBut not much. initscripts, ifupdown.09:37
palongwasabi: yeah. and if, for example, ifupdown was the cause, I would know, that I don't want to reboot right away, while, if the kernel was it, a reboot might be more important to me.09:38
palongwasabi: I know I am probably being a bit pedantic here :)09:38
_ionMaybe we should go towards the way Windows works. Just make apt run notify-reboot-required automatically after any install/upgrade operation.09:38

simiracarlos: as long as there's nb.po-files, that would be ok, yes11:56
carlossimira: ok, blocking the files mean that they will stay on the import queue for ever11:56
carlossimira: with the 'blocked' status set11:56
carlosif you miss anyone, you can always ask for a change on that entry and we will import that no.po file as nb.po11:57
carlosdoes it works for you?11:57
simiracarlos: you can probably throw them away. Do you have any option to import the newer one of nb.po/no.po?11:57
simiraelse, that works fine, yes11:57
carloswell, yes, but sometimes, implies some extra work on our side11:57
carloswe can try importing the no.po as nb.po and if it adds too much work to us then move to the blocking procedure I just told you about11:58
simiraok. Just have the nb ones then11:58
carlos;-)11:58
simirasure, that's great. I'm happy to get rid of no :p11:59
carloswe are not able to agree :-P11:59
carlosI will try to get rid of any other no pofile we already imported by mistake on dapper so we can tag dapper as a 'no' free zone11:59
carlosok?11:59
simiracarlos: you're an angel if you manage that. I won't crucify you for any no that would happen to show up, I promise12:00
