[03:14] please resend the question [03:15] man-di: just a moment [03:15] bddebian is the guy (not yet here) [03:15] oh, okay === bddebian [n=bdefrees@71.224.172.103] has joined #ubuntu-java [03:16] Hello [03:17] hello bddebian [03:17] Has something in the eclipse package replaced libswt-gtk-dev? [03:17] Hello man-di [03:18] what should libswt-gtk-dev contain? [03:19] I think I just removed it because it was useless from java point of view [03:19] but I dont really know anymore [03:20] It contains the header files from libswt-gtk-3.1 [03:21] which header files? SWT is a java library [03:21] It's in the swt-gtk package on Debian which we don't have and swingwt depends on it [03:22] tell me an example of a header file please [03:22] the swt-gtk and swingwt packages in debian are totally crap, sorry for being so rude [03:23] That's fine, I'm just trying to fix up the unmet deps on LP :-) [03:23] they are more or less thrown loosely together without any real knowledge [03:23] I might be able to get away with just removing that dependency [03:23] if you want to use SWT use the SWT from eclipse [03:24] I know this is currently supported on a few archs but we will fix that soon [03:25] Well, that's the funny part. Someone updated swingwt to depend libswt3.1-gtk instead of libswt-gtk-3.1 but didn't do anything about the -dev dependency [03:25] I know, this is becuase both packages have the same maintainer [03:25] Ah [03:26] swt-gtk and swingwt I mean [03:26] OK, in your opinion should swingwt just be removed from our archive then? [03:26] our = ubuntu ? sorry, I'm a debian only guy [03:26] if no application needs it just remove it [03:27] in debian afaik no package depends on it [03:28] bddebian, when I fixed SWT from eclipse in debian I will ask for removal of swt-gtk and all other packages shoudl depend on swt from eclipse [03:28] this just needs time as eclipse upstream only supports SWT on a few archs officially [03:28] swt-gtk is available on ALL debian archs (but works just on a few ;-)) [03:28] so we need to port [03:29] man-di: Oh, sorry since this is #ubuntu-java, I just assumed Ubuntu :-( [03:29] well, I try to work together as close as possible [03:29] Great [03:29] I just personally dont use ubuntu [03:29] that may change [03:30] man-di: thanks [03:30] bddebian, doko: that is how we get the benefits out of both communities [03:31] bddebian: can you file a removal request? [03:31] man-di: Totally agreed [03:31] doko: Yes, I'm on it, thanks [03:31] I'm just checking rdepends quick [03:32] bddebian, I know azureus uses swt-gtk (same maintainer) but doko has a patch to make make it use swt from debian id you wanna get rid of swt-gtk too ;-) [03:33] We don't have swt-gtk currently, which was the problem with swingwt :-) [03:33] aaah, okay [03:34] some people want to use azureus because its agreat bittorrent client [03:34] you might consider it [03:34] Ah cool [03:34] its afaik under top three SF downloads [03:35] third place currently [03:37] but it seems nearly impossible to get in contact with the maintainers [03:37] no ML, just forums [03:37] that is normal in the java world :-( [03:38] I dont like it either [03:38] windows people seem to like it (because they have no cool MUAs ;-)) [03:38] man-di: I wish some of your other Debian brethren shared your "personality" :-) [03:38] bddebian, my personality? [03:39] man-di: Helpfulness, willingness to co-operate, etc :-) [03:39] I'm unwilling in some areas too ;-) [03:39] every person has its bad side [03:39] I was a HUGE debian fan (hence the nick) but switched to Ubuntu MOTU because of many of the attitudes in #debian-devel :-( [03:40] Oh I know [03:40] well, I just dont care about some people [03:40] And it's only a handful of people in Debian that set me off :-( [03:40] that helps a lot [03:40] I know I knew your name [03:41] What set me over the edge was when I was trying to help debug some RC bugs in sarge and basically got lambasted for it. [03:41] thats stupid to blame people what wanna do something [03:42] my personal opinion is: dont blame people, they might be of help in the future to you. [03:42] I know this is selfish [03:42] Well I thought so and really took offense. Of course I seem to irritate the crap out of the Ubuntu devs too so maybe it's just me :-) [03:42] dont blame, then you dont get blamed [03:43] perhaps you have just a different way to say something then people normally expect [03:43] Well I tend to be a little goofy so I think people don't take me seriously [03:43] we have someone in the GNU classpath community, when he speaks I would like to just do some karate kicks into his face [03:44] but I dont do it and just try to ignore hime [03:44] now you know my evil side [03:45] :-) [03:46] bddebian, are you generelly interesting in Java in Ubuntu or just checking some packages? [03:47] man-di: I'm just kinda the clean-up crew I guess. I just hate having broken packages in the archive :) [03:47] ok [03:48] Sorry, I suppose I'm not enough of a hacker to be a true Java/C/foo guy :-( [03:48] I wish I was [03:48] aah, okay [03:49] every distro needs guys like you [03:49] not so close minded about their area [03:56] If were in Debian I would hit QA packages that no one cares about :-) [04:07] BTW, if I didn't already say so, thanks for your help/time! [04:08] no problem [04:08] I dont had to do much [04:09] You answered me, that's all I ask for :-) [04:10] Even if the answer is "I don't know". I HATE being ignored ;-P [04:10] hehe === pombreda [n=pombreda@c-67-164-68-30.hsd1.ca.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-java === ChanServ [ChanServ@services.] has joined #ubuntu-java === pombred1 [n=pombreda@c-67-164-68-30.hsd1.ca.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-java
