| mkrufky | we at linuxtv.org just released dvb-apps 1.1.1 -- it is exactly the same as 1.1.0, with added support for ATSC ... could this be added to ubuntu sooner than later? | 02:13 |
| mkrufky | http://linuxtv.org/download/linuxtv-dvb-apps-1.1.1.tar.bz2 | 02:13 |
| crimsun | mkrufky: for Edgy, sure. For Dapper? No. | 02:14 |
| mkrufky | that is understandable | 02:14 |
| mkrufky | however........ | 02:14 |
| crimsun | mkrufky: on the other hand, if the changes in 1.1.1 are unintrusive and consist mainly of #defines, then sure, you could backport them. | 02:14 |
| mkrufky | does dapper actually have a realistic release date now? | 02:14 |
| crimsun | yeah, 1 june. | 02:15 |
| crimsun | freeze is essentially this saturday. | 02:15 |
| mkrufky | we released 1.1.1 purely for the sake of letting americans and koreans use atsc | 02:15 |
| mkrufky | it is exactly 1.1.0 .... all of the new stuff was held back | 02:15 |
| crimsun | right, but realise we've been in upstream version freeze since /mid-February/ | 02:15 |
| mkrufky | the atsc support has been sitting there for over a year -- i just finally convinced the dvb-apps maintainer to put out this release for us poor americans/ canadians / koreans | 02:16 |
| mkrufky | yes, i do realize that | 02:16 |
| crimsun | generate a debdiff against the current Dapper package, then, and file a bug attaching the debdiff | 02:16 |
| mkrufky | hmm... i never read up on the motu stuff | 02:17 |
| crimsun | if someone can't eyeball the patch and approve it in 10 seconds, it's not worth it. | 02:17 |
| mkrufky | is there a wiki anywhere that explains the debdiff stuff? im sure its probably simple, i just dont know it | 02:17 |
| crimsun | meaning: if it adds swathes of code, don't bother until Edgy opens | 02:17 |
| mkrufky | it adds a bit... not very much | 02:17 |
| mkrufky | but i can understand if you'd want to wait | 02:18 |
| mkrufky | im really hoping to get the livecd distros to adopt it befor e the next releases | 02:18 |
| mkrufky | may you put it on the to-do list? or do i have to file a bug or something? | 02:18 |
| crimsun | http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/packagingguide/C/ubuntu-sync.html | 02:19 |
| crimsun | read the debdiff section(s) | 02:19 |
| mkrufky | ok | 02:19 |
| crimsun | you should also read the Debian New Maintainer's and Developer's Guides | 02:19 |
| crimsun | we're /extremely/ short on resources, so there's no guarantee that any of us will actually look until Edgy | 02:19 |
| mkrufky | i understand | 02:20 |
| mkrufky | im a kernel maintainer... in the same boat | 02:20 |
| mkrufky | ;-) | 02:20 |
| crimsun | then I'm sure you know why we prefer to defer :-) | 02:20 |
| mkrufky | (note, im not THE maintainer.... just one of them) ... and yes, completely understandable why you'd want to wait | 02:20 |

| LaserJock | hi everybody! | 05:28 |
| bddebian | Heya LaserJock | 05:30 |
| LaserJock | bddebian: have you fixed/broken Universe yet? :-) | 05:32 |
| bddebian | Suuure :-) | 05:32 |
| LaserJock | so I talked to the department sys admin today | 05:38 |
| bddebian | Yeah and? :-) | 05:38 |
| LaserJock | he was thinking of trying to teach a scripting/scientific computing class | 05:38 |
| LaserJock | bash+python for scientists | 05:39 |
| bddebian | Cool | 05:39 |
| LaserJock | and so we were thinking that we could convert our present department computer lab into an Ubuntu LTSP setup | 05:39 |
| LaserJock | and team teach the class in there | 05:40 |
| crimsun | that's cool, but ... ouch? Surely there's an MPI/OpenMP class? | 05:40 |
| LaserJock | MPI/OpenMP? | 05:40 |
| crimsun | MPI and OpenMP are alternate and widely used paradigms in computational science | 05:41 |
| LaserJock | crimsun: no, I'm thinking of stuff like "what does the ls command do?" ;-) | 05:41 |
| LaserJock | we have linux computational clusters etc. but nobody knows linux | 05:41 |
| LaserJock | so we have people doing lots of repetative tasks by hand | 05:42 |
| crimsun | (you shouldn't have to know Linux anyhow) | 05:42 |
| crimsun | Ubuntu LTSP is a step in the right direction at least | 05:44 |
| LaserJock | right now we have a bunch of buggy XP machines that people don't really use for chemistry | 05:44 |
| LaserJock | the problem right now is that there is a distinct lack of linux knowledge | 05:45 |
| ajmitch | shouldn't take long to teach them the basics | 05:45 |
| LaserJock | or of scripting knowledge in general (even python on Windows_ | 05:45 |
| LaserJock | yeah | 05:46 |
| LaserJock | but somebody needs to do it ;-) | 05:46 |
| ajmitch | it's fairly useful to know | 05:46 |
| ajmitch | a friend of mine doing his phd in microbiology does a lot of stuff with perl - scripting knowledge has helped him quite a bit | 05:46 |
| ajmitch | he also has enough linux knowledge to get by | 05:47 |
| LaserJock | some of our international grad students have know computer experience at all and they are dumped into computational chemistry | 05:47 |
| ajmitch | ubuntu does make it easy though | 05:48 |
| LaserJock | well, Ubuntu has a lot more chemistry software than what we presently have in the computer lab | 05:49 |
| ajmitch | and it has a lot of python stuff | 05:49 |
| ajmitch | it's not a particularly hard system to learn on | 05:49 |
| === ajmitch fetches the latest daily | ||
| chillywilly | hi | 05:51 |
| ajmitch | hi chillywilly | 05:51 |

| tritium | Well, I might have a headache in the morning | 05:52 |
| LaserJock | tritium: I left 14 bottles of beer in the department office this evening after our department party | 05:53 |
| LaserJock | I wonder if it will be there in the morning | 05:53 |
| ajmitch | heh | 05:53 |
| tritium | LaserJock: wow. Graduation party? | 05:53 |
| === ajmitch needs beer | ||
| ajmitch | someone ship me a daily amd64 image please | 05:54 |
| LaserJock | tritium: no, the Chemistry Grad Student Association I (and a few others) started put on an end-of-semester party | 05:54 |
| ajmitch | it's only downloading at 15K/sec here | 05:54 |
| tritium | Oh, okay | 05:54 |
| LaserJock | ajmitch: ouch | 05:54 |
| ajmitch | LaserJock: tell me about it - I want to install on a server tomorrow | 05:54 |
| LaserJock | ajmitch: can you rsync it? | 05:55 |
| ajmitch | nothing to rsync from | 05:55 |
| ajmitch | unless I go from a recent server install image | 05:55 |
| LaserJock | :( | 05:55 |
| ajmitch | which I might do | 05:55 |
| ajmitch | that one is only a week old | 05:55 |
| TheMuso | auc is alwaysy very busy hese days. | 05:55 |
| TheMuso | and cdimage | 05:55 |
| ajmitch | yeah | 05:56 |
| ajmitch | flight 8 should be out soon | 05:56 |
| ajmitch | then RC | 05:56 |
| LaserJock | I wonder what June 1 will be like? | 05:56 |
| ajmitch | we're approaching final freezes | 05:56 |
| LaserJock | I though Flight 8 was canceled | 05:56 |
| LaserJock | *thought | 05:56 |
| ajmitch | LaserJock: well the .se mirror saturated its 2.5Gbps link on breezy release for several hours | 05:56 |
| TheMuso | I think if one wants to get the release early, to rsync from the most recent daily they have. | 05:56 |
| === TheMuso will be doing that. | ||
| ajmitch | cancelled? | 05:56 |
| === ajmitch hadn't heard that | ||
| LaserJock | maybe it is just for one of the *other* Ubuntus ;-) | 05:57 |

| ajmitch | chillywilly: release is SOOOOON | 06:00 |
| crimsun | (Friday's a mandatory holiday for the distro team, so F8 is cancelled) | 06:00 |
| ajmitch | crimsun: interesting | 06:00 |
| LaserJock | hmm, are there any cdimage. mirrors? | 06:00 |
| crimsun | sure, try se.archive ;-) | 06:00 |
| ajmitch | why is it a mandatory holiday? to ensure that they don't collapse in the last days before release? | 06:00 |
| crimsun | ajmitch: from what I understand, yep | 06:00 |
| ajmitch | makes sense :) | 06:01 |

| TheMuso | Nor the other package you mentioned. | 07:20 |
| AnAnt | wierd | 07:20 |
| AnAnt | I uploaded them yesterday | 07:21 |
| ajmitch | because you uploaded binary packages, not source-only | 07:25 |
| AnAnt | both ! | 07:26 |
| AnAnt | I did -S -sa | 07:26 |
| ajmitch | binary packages were uploaded | 07:26 |
| ajmitch | you must upload the package_source.changes file, not the i386.changes | 07:26 |
| AnAnt | oh | 07:29 |
| AnAnt | btw, there isn't any source_changes | 07:29 |
| ajmitch | there will be if you build with -S -sa | 07:29 |
| AnAnt | doesn't dpkg-buildpackage -S -sa create that ? | 07:29 |
| AnAnt | you mean, also pbuild should be run with it ? | 07:30 |
| ajmitch | no | 07:30 |
| ajmitch | pbuilder doesn't need to be run like that | 07:30 |
| AnAnt | well, I don't get it | 07:31 |

| AnAnt | oic | 07:31 |
| AnAnt | k | 07:31 |
| AnAnt | btw, I should upload sources-only or sources & binary ? | 07:34 |
| AnAnt | cool ! | 07:41 |

| AnAnt | oic | 09:48 |
| AnAnt | crimsun: so if I am uploading a package that is not in the distro I got , the most probably it is non-native | 09:48 |
| crimsun | 'morning daniel | 09:49 |
| dholbach | crimsun: hey daniel | 09:49 |
| AnAnt | crimsun: let's say, wxwidgets2.8 is out for example | 09:49 |
| crimsun | AnAnt: if it doesn't already exist in Debian or Ubuntu but does exist "upstream", then it will be non-native /unless/ you are the upstream author and are packaging it specifically for Debian or its derivatives | 09:50 |
| AnAnt | crimsun: and I don't see wxwidgets2.8 on the REVU, in that case it is non-native, and I should put the orig tarball, right ? | 09:50 |
| crimsun | AnAnt: in general, yes, but wxwidgets is a pathological case. | 09:50 |
| AnAnt | ok | 09:50 |
| AnAnt | thanks | 09:50 |
| TheMuso | Hey dholbach. | 09:51 |
| crimsun | AnAnt: we never use actual upstream wxwidgets tarballs because they're far too buggy. The Debian maintainer, Ron Lee, generates native Debian source for them. | 09:51 |

| AnAnt | btw, when I make a package for elinks, I got this from linda: Package contains autoconf-generated files. | 09:54 |
| AnAnt | what's that ? | 09:54 |
| Hobbsee | AnAnt: elinks is already in dapper - or there's some reason it cant be packaged... | 09:56 |
| TheMuso | You have files that are used for autoconf in your .diff.gz, which is generally not desired. | 09:56 |
| === Hobbsee has an elinks deb, somewhere | ||
| Hobbsee | no, wait...maybe that's links2 | 09:56 |
| TheMuso | Hobbsee: It is in universe,but my guess is that it is an older version. | 09:56 |
| AnAnt | Hobbsee: that's version 0.11.1 of elinks | 09:57 |
| AnAnt | Hobbsee: that's version 0.11.1 of elinks that I am packaging | 09:57 |
| Hobbsee | there's something weird about those packages though - check the README | 09:57 |
| Hobbsee | er...you're packaging the same one as is in the repos? | 09:57 |
| Hobbsee | or am i missing something here? | 09:57 |
| AnAnt | TheMuso: what are those autoconf files ? how can I know them ? | 09:57 |
| Hobbsee | oh, yes, i see...dont mind me... | 09:57 |
| AnAnt | Hobbsee: ok | 09:58 |
| Hobbsee | this is post dapper, presumably... | 09:58 |
| dholbach | AnAnt: lintian -i *.deb or lintian -i *.changes should tell | 09:58 |
| AnAnt | Hobbsee: also in the changelog you'll find that I compiled elinks with many features, ECMAScript other stuff | 09:58 |
| TheMuso | AnAnt: What I do is unpack the .orig.tar.gz by hand, and manually patch in the .diff.gz file and look at the filenames mentioned in the output. | 09:58 |
| Hobbsee | AnAnt: fair enough | 09:58 |
| TheMuso | Anything with a .m4 extension, Makefile or config* is considered autoconf related. | 09:58 |
| === Hobbsee just didnt want you to do a whole lot of work, then find "oh drat, it doesnt work" for whatever reason | ||
| === Hobbsee thinks that's pretty pointless. | ||
| TheMuso | dholbach: Never knew that one. You learn something new every day. | 09:59 |
| AnAnt | Hobbsee: and it's version 0.11.1 , it has a feature that I missed in 0.10.6 | 09:59 |
| Hobbsee | so i see :) | 09:59 |
| TheMuso | AnAnt: BTW are you building elinks with libsmjs1 as a dependancy? | 10:00 |
| Hobbsee | i thought that you were saying that 0.11.1 was already there, so you were packaging it... | 10:00 |
| AnAnt | TheMuso: yes | 10:00 |
| Hobbsee | and thought that was a little odd :P | 10:00 |
| TheMuso | Good. | 10:00 |
| AnAnt | TheMuso: for the ECMAScript | 10:00 |
| AnAnt | but I failed to enable perl , dunno why | 10:00 |
| TheMuso | Yeah. | 10:00 |
| AnAnt | TheMuso: I looked at the diff, it only added debian scripts ! | 10:03 |
| AnAnt | TheMuso: or to be accurate , it modified the debian scripts | 10:03 |
| TheMuso | AnAnt: Try what dholbach suggested. | 10:03 |
| AnAnt | k | 10:04 |
| AnAnt | lintian only printed a W: line, not E: line | 10:05 |
| AnAnt | oh hang on | 10:05 |
| AnAnt | the only E: lines I get from lintian *changes is about: elinks source: invalid-arch-string-in-source-relation | 10:06 |
| AnAnt | I don't see that this has to do with linda report about autoconf files | 10:07 |

| AnAnt | btw, I got a question, | 10:17 |
| AnAnt | I got the deb files of VIM7 from debian experimental repos | 10:17 |
| AnAnt | tried to install it, but it turned not to work because it required some libc6 package that is in debian | 10:17 |
| AnAnt | so I got the source package, and made a ubuntu1 package from it | 10:18 |
| AnAnt | is that ok, or wrong ? unethical I mean | 10:18 |
| Hobbsee | AnAnt: no, that's allowed :) | 10:18 |
| Hobbsee | all of this is for edgy, though...unfortunately... | 10:19 |
| AnAnt | Hobbsee: ? | 10:19 |
| AnAnt | after dapper is released, aren't there something called updates ? | 10:19 |
| Hobbsee | AnAnt: you cant get new features into dapper by now... | 10:20 |
| Hobbsee | yes, to the development version... | 10:20 |
| AnAnt | you mean updates are not for stable version ? | 10:20 |
| Hobbsee | june 1, dapper gets released as stable, and the only things it gets are security updates... | 10:20 |
| AnAnt | oh | 10:20 |
| AnAnt | ok | 10:20 |
| AnAnt | so I guess when edgy becomes beta, I will go for it too | 10:21 |
| crimsun | AnAnt: 1) security fixes go into dapper-security; 2) critical "ohshi should've been fixed and prevents $app from starting" bugfixes go into dapper-updates; 3) newer versions are backported from edgy to dapper-backports | 10:21 |
| AnAnt | dapper beta is pretty stable (I started from beta2) | 10:21 |
| ajmitch | when edgy is opened, we'll be syncing from debian | 10:21 |
| ajmitch | so anything newer in debian will be imported | 10:21 |
| AnAnt | ok, so if I allow the backports repo, I will get them, that's cool | 10:21 |
| ajmitch | well | 10:22 |

| Yagisan | Mithrandir: if Sun and Ubuntu have an agreement, it isn't displayed when you install the package | 11:48 |

| Yagisan | Mithrandir: I'll get you a link. just a Sec | 11:49 |
| Yagisan | Mithrandir: Raven License http://eyagi.bpa.nu/~jamie/uf/Ravenlic.txt | 11:54 |
| herzi | sivang: i don't think so | 11:55 |
| Yagisan | Mithrandir: the sun license, while granting redistribution, is over broad and restricts distribution of alternatives in section 2c. Reading that means, we must remove perl, python, gcc et al | 11:56 |
| herzi | sivang: no, it can't. http://packages.debian.org/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?searchon=names&version=all&exact=1&keywords=gq | 11:56 |
| kgoetz | Yagisan: you follow Debian-legel or -devel? if not i'll dig up the threads on sun java | 11:56 |
| Mithrandir | Yagisan: that licence doesn't allow redistribution, so it's not suitable even for non-free. | 11:56 |
| Mithrandir | Yagisan: I disagree with your interpretation of 2c. | 11:57 |
| Yagisan | kgoetz: I get the DD digest periodically. Haven't read them yet | 11:57 |
| herzi | sivang: but it's basically removing the debian-specific patches (except one) and copying the debian directory into a 1.0.0 tree | 11:57 |

| Mithrandir | ehlo Hobbsee | 12:01 |
| Yagisan | Mithrandir: in general if it isn't explicitly permitted, it is forbidden in most European countries correct ? | 12:01 |
| Hobbsee | hi Mithrandir | 12:01 |
| Yagisan | Mithrandir: whilst here, if it isn't explicitly forbidden, it is permitted until a court or parliament rules otherwise. | 12:04 |

| Yagisan | Mithrandir: I do agree the Raven License is not good, hence my desire to change it. | 12:05 |
| Mithrandir | Yagisan: yes, I'd suspect .au of being a common law country, not a civil law one, since it's part of the british commonwealth. | 12:06 |
| Mithrandir | Yagisan: the copyright laws in most parts of the world; both common and civil law countries do disallow redistribution unless explicitly granted, though. | 12:06 |
| Mithrandir | so I don't see why you think that distinction is important here? | 12:07 |
| Yagisan | Mithrandir: that distinction was Ubuntu's reason to reject some software until re-licensing is completed. How is sun-java more free ? | 12:10 |
| Mithrandir | it grants the explicit right of redistribution. | 12:11 |
| Mithrandir | the raven licence says: "Make copies of this Program or any part thereof, or make copies of | 12:12 |
| Mithrandir | the materials accompanying this Program." | 12:12 |

| Whoopie | first, many thanks for syncing sensors-applet and nautilus-actions!!! | 12:35 |
| Yagisan | anyway, I understand. It's sun, so it gets special treatment. | 12:36 |
| herzi | sivang: i'd like to see that update, so i'll do my part for it (releasing gq 1.0.0 and pushing debian/ubuntu to deliver it) | 12:36 |
| Mithrandir | Yagisan: you've so far failed to come up with any sort of backing for that statement. You've pointed to a licence which _doesn't_ grant redistribution rights and which was therefore rejected. | 12:37 |
| Yagisan | Mithrandir: noth license have issues. both should be rejected. one was not | 12:37 |
| Whoopie | I'm little confused. I installed sensors-applet before from a local deb package. After "sudo apt-get update", the package wasn't installed from the universe repository. Before, when a package came into a repo which had the same version, it was updated by default. Did there change anything? | 12:37 |
| Yagisan | s/not/both | 12:38 |
| Mithrandir | Yagisan: why? It's legal to distribute it and it's useful. | 12:38 |
| Yagisan | Mithrandir: why redistribute something that the license forbids using ? | 12:39 |
| Mithrandir | Yagisan: because it doesn't? | 12:39 |
| Mithrandir | it forbids using for some things. | 12:39 |
| Mithrandir | like, a bunch of stuff in multiverse is not legal to use commercially. | 12:39 |
| Mithrandir | it can still be useful for me to use at home | 12:40 |
| Yagisan | Mithrandir: it clearly does. You may not develop with this software, yet you ship a jdk, which exists to develop software | 12:40 |
| Mithrandir | you can develop stuff for your own use, which is useful. | 12:40 |

| === allee [n=ach@allee.exgal.mpe.mpg.de] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| Yagisan | Mithrandir: sure, if you want to run that java software you made on the Ubuntu box using that sun-java package, on the Debian box, you can't without violating 2b. You do make end users agree to the DLJ-1.1 on install remember. | 12:45 |
| Yagisan | Mithrandir: why was it so vital to shove it into dapper at the last minute with such a problematic license ? | 12:46 |
| Mithrandir | copying software from one machine you control to another is usually not considered distribution | 12:48 |
| Mithrandir | Yagisan: I don't think the licence is particularly problematic. Sure, it's inconvenient for the user in some places, but that's multiverse. | 12:49 |
| Yagisan | Mithrandir: but that is not what the license says, is it. | 12:49 |
| Mithrandir | Yagisan: the licence doesn't define what it means by the term "distribute", so a "common definition" must be used. | 12:51 |
| Mithrandir | anyway, I'm not particularly interested in this discussion, and I don't think we'll end up in agreement so I'll refrain from debating this further and rather debug openbox. | 12:52 |
| Yagisan | Mithrandir: no, the license says it may only run under your "Operating System", once you go to that hypothetical Debian box, the "Operating System" has changed | 12:52 |

| siretart | anymore | 04:55 |
| siretart | bddebian: a sync overrides all local ubuntu changes. we need to double check if we really want to throw away work | 04:55 |

| bddebian | siretart: Check what? | 04:56 |
| siretart | bddebian: if we need to merge the package, or if all ubuntu changes can be dropped | 04:57 |
| ajmitch | bddebian: the changelog for 4.1.1 in ubuntu dates back to january though? | 04:57 |

| siretart | bddebian: now in dapper we have version 4.1.1-0ubuntu4 | 05:01 |
| siretart | bddebian: please compare the dapper and sid package, and day if we can drop the changes. or you can reject the request, if you think the version we have in dapper now is okay | 05:02 |
| bddebian | siretart: Did you look at my comment? -10 is not in unstable unless packages.d.o is wrong | 05:02 |

| iegary | tuxmaniac: iirc, if it doesn't have a .desktop file but needs it, it's best to open a bug in the Debian BTS rather than add the patch in launchpad. | 06:34 |

| tuxmaniac | I will confirm it? | 06:40 |
| iegary | tuxmaniac: yes, and link to the upstream bug. | 06:41 |
| tuxmaniac | iegary: Ok | 06:41 |
| tuxmaniac | linking to the upstream bug means?? | 06:42 |

| === neutrinomass [n=pandis@ppp180-89.adsl.forthnet.gr] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| Spec | so I think the best thing to do is file a bug with both and provide a .desktop file on both launchpad and debian's BTS? | 06:43 |
| Spec | and then cross-link both bug reports? | 06:43 |
| iegary | tuxmaniac: click "Also affects 'Upstream'", select appropriate bug tracker, bug number, component. | 06:44 |
| tuxmaniac | ok | 06:44 |
| tuxmaniac | thanks iegary | 06:44 |
| iegary | Spec: as long as there's a pointer to upstream (you could say there's a patch upstream), no need to add an attachment again | 06:44 |
| neutrinomass | Spec: I've been filing stuff on the BTS and simply linking from launchpad. It's probably pointless to add the .desktop to LP as well, since you might want to change it. | 06:44 |
| iegary | talk to sfllaw if you need more info on what the preferred way is | 06:45 |
| neutrinomass | Should I stop filing the bug reports and just file on the debian BTS ? | 06:45 |
| iegary | neutrinomass: I forget what sfllaw said... the bug report won't hurt though. | 06:46 |
| Spec | mmhmm | 06:46 |
| Spec | to file on debian's BTS you have to do it via e-mail :-/ | 06:46 |
| Spec | or reportbug | 06:47 |
| bddebian | No, you don't have to but it's preferred i think :-) | 06:47 |
| Spec | is reportbug on ubuntu for debian's BTS? | 06:47 |
| neutrinomass | iegary: OK. I don't remember talking to sfllaw but I was generally told that it's beter to go upstream to minimize the packaging effort for Ubuntu. | 06:47 |
| neutrinomass | Spec: Yes, and it's considered a bug. The e-mail thing is not that tough after all (I was reluctant to use it at first too ). | 06:47 |
| Spec | reportbug on ubuntu reporting to debian is considered a bug? :p | 06:48 |
| tuxmaniac | neutrinomass: I guess he product of gerbv is geda!? | 06:48 |
| tuxmaniac | neutrinomass: BTW you seem to be my taste? EDA developer? | 06:48 |
| Spec | but all the packages that are directly imported from debian should have bugs filed against them on debian's BTS | 06:48 |
| bddebian | But if you just add it to BTS and we don't sync that package again, it won't get in Dapper eh? | 06:48 |

| tuxmaniac | in the Affects Upstream Link in LP | 06:51 |
| neutrinomass | tuxmaniac: Oooops, sorry. I thought I filed it correctly. IIRC the package should be 'gerbv' | 06:51 |

| neutrinomass | bddebian: Interesting....So the maintainer listed on LP is for nominal reasons ? | 07:07 |

| tuxmaniac | I mean sorry | 07:08 |
| tuxmaniac | Debian Maintainer name | 07:08 |
| neutrinomass | tuxmaniac: Ohhh, that explains it :) This is intentional I suppose so that packages don't get left out when maintainers disappear ? | 07:09 |
| tuxmaniac | Am I right master bddebian | 07:09 |
| tuxmaniac | IMO yes neutrinomass ! For instance the maintainer of xcircuit has disappeared orphaning the package in Debian which means blah blah bah | 07:09 |
| bddebian | tuxmaniac: Afaik yes. Might be different for main packages, I don't know. :-) | 07:09 |

| imbrandon_ | bddebian, you see the one and only lonely diff i had in that dir ? | 07:56 |
| neutrinomass | Spec: I'm not sure what the /usr/share/app-install thing is for. It includes .desktops even for packages that you haven't installed IIRC. But I know that if you copy the deskto pin /usr/share/applications, it works ;) | 07:56 |

| iegary | tuxmaniac: it's started by dbus - so /etc/init.d/dbus restart should help | 08:00 |
| neutrinomass | Spec: There is no definite view on it. It's a good idea to leave it relative, and without the extension. e.g. if the icon is /usr/share/pixmaps/spec.png, then Icon="spec" (yes, without the extension) is fine, since it shows. | 08:03 |

| neutrinomass | Spec: Yeah. I'll get beaten for this I fear because I've opened ~10 reports at debian about .desktop files | 09:01 |
| Spec | I've only done 3 :) | 09:01 |
| Spec | well, they wouldn't get bug reports if they included .desktop files, now would they? :) | 09:01 |
| neutrinomass | Spec: Lol yeah, I'll write to tell them just taht . | 09:01 |
| Spec | what's the worse that can happen? :p | 09:02 |
| Laser_away | neutrinomass: I think it is a legitimate bug, don't worry too much if a few DDs don't like it | 09:02 |

| Spec | well....some debian packages come with .desktop files | 09:02 |
| Laser_away | we might have to send .desktop files to the software authors if Debian refuses | 09:03 |
| Spec | will upstream care? | 09:04 |
| neutrinomass | Laser_away: I'm doing just that anyway. If upstream is alive I send it upstream. At least this DD was good. Apparently there was some bug in some other menu-creation thing to which I drew his attention (I didn't understand how) and at least he thanked me for that. | 09:04 |
| Spec | we need an insider DD to create .desktop files for us. | 09:05 |
| neutrinomass | Spec: They care. I got told off again today by upstream. I told them "it's an absolute path because you're putting your icon in /usr/lib. Although I am not sure about this, according to the FHS you should probably be putting arch-independant stuff in /usr/share". | 09:06 |
| Spec | FHS? | 09:06 |
| Laser_away | neutrinomass: icons should go in /usr/share/pixmaps | 09:07 |
| neutrinomass | Spec: Fileystem Hierarchy Standard | 09:07 |
| Laser_away | Spec: I don't think an inside person would help | 09:07 |
| Spec | ah | 09:08 |
| neutrinomass | Laser_away: Well not according to Openstep/Coca, whatever that is. And "not all the world conforms to the FHS". | 09:08 |
| Laser_away | basically because Debian has their own menu system they really don't care about fd.org | 09:08 |
| Spec | which menu system is 'better'? | 09:09 |
| Laser_away | neutrinomass: all I know is that is were icons generally go | 09:09 |
| Laser_away | Spec: fd.org of course ;-) | 09:09 |
| Laser_away | it is what Gnome, KDE, and other WMs use | 09:09 |
| neutrinomass | Laser_away: Anyway. I was particularly annoyed with this dev so I'm just ranting about now. So we should not send .desktops to debian after all ? | 09:09 |
| Spec | so, if a DD e-mails me about .desktop files, I'll just reply fd.org is better than you. bow down. | 09:09 |
| Laser_away | neutrinomass: no, continue to send them | 09:10 |
| Laser_away | Spec: sure | 09:10 |
| Laser_away | ;-) | 09:10 |
| Spec | hehe | 09:10 |
| Laser_away | no, I think it would be appropriate to say the .desktop files are a freedesktop.org standard and are used by the Gnome and KDE menus | 09:11 |
| Laser_away | if they don't want to do it fine, we either get the authors to do it or we do it ourselves | 09:11 |
| neutrinomass | Laser_away: OK. Should I respond to this DD that told me just now that "debian doesn't use .desktops" ? | 09:11 |
| imbrandon | neutrinomass, i would respond to it in that kde/gnome use them not debian | 09:12 |
| imbrandon | thats me personaly | 09:12 |
| neutrinomass | Laser_away: Or just comment on LP that "Debian rejected the .desktop because they don't like .desktops" ? | 09:12 |
| Laser_away | neutrinomass: it's up to you, you could mention that Gnome and KDE do use them even if the Debian menu does not | 09:12 |
| === neutrinomass will take a glance at the debian policy first to see if there's anything relevant there | ||
| Laser_away | neutrinomass: what is the Debian bug # ? | 09:13 |
| === jmg [n=jmg@shinobi.thoughtcrime.org.nz] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| neutrinomass | nothing there... | 09:13 |
| neutrinomass | it's debian bug #367821 | 09:14 |
| Spec | Debian's BTS is slow | 09:14 |
| Laser_away | heh, tell me about it | 09:15 |
| Spec | and ugly :p | 09:15 |
| Spec | LP is superior, even if it's confusing and complex and a little buggy at first :p | 09:15 |
| hub | I have a cmake update on REVU | 09:16 |
| hub | I'd like to have it for edgy, so that people can build KDE4 on Ubuntu :-) | 09:16 |
