LaserJockwhat? Dapper was released?!?! ;-)01:02
crimsundude, no, we skipped dapper and went straight to edgy, because edgy has ponies.01:03

=== Kyral [n=kyral@ubuntu/member/kyral] has joined #ubuntu-motu

LaserJockwell, a REVU2 sprint then?01:15
imbrandonrevu2  ?01:15
=== sistpoty is just trying to... find out what /me and siretart wrote back then
=== ajmitch looked over the spec recently
sistpotyimbrandon: it's like revu but much cooler... and it's vaporware since quite some time ;)01:17
ajmitchfun times, discussing the spec at UBZ01:17
imbrandonheh01:17
imbrandonajmitch did you get a sec to look at my reupload on revu ?01:17
ajmitchnope01:17
imbrandonkk01:18
LaserJockI'd love to help out with REVU2 but my Python skills are probably lacking quite a bit01:18
ajmitchthere's plenty of time until edgy feature freeze01:18
LaserJockwell, that and I'm doing like a million things for Edgy already01:18
ajmitchyay, mdz has posted a potential timeline for edgy01:18
imbrandonohh yea i know , was just curious since thats the first time i've actualy done a full package01:19

LaserJockwell, Ian just got started with it, so it is going to take a lot of work I think01:19
Toadstoolheya everybody!01:20
imbrandonmoins01:20
LaserJockajmitch: it is based on the DDR though so it should look familiar :-)01:20
=== ajmitch feels like he's had too much caffeine
Toadstoolnice, revu2 trac was spammed...01:20
LaserJockspammed? those evil DD's trying to mess up our nice little 0ubuntuX factory :-)01:21
Toadstool;)01:21
ajmitchburn the DDs!01:23
LaserJockthey turned me into a newt :'(01:23
ajmitchheh01:23
LaserJockbut I got better ;-)01:23

bddebianOh and Hi LaserJock :-)01:30
ajmitchbddebian: did you bring a pony?01:30
bddebianSure01:30
ajmitchexcellent01:30
LaserJockbddebian: it's hard to know who to say hi to when I see you say hi in 4 different places :-)01:30
bddebianYeah, sorry :-)01:31
ajmitchspamming the channels01:31
Toadstoolsistpoty: is the revu2 svn repos available for checkouts using http or something? I'd like to play with the code and see if I can help but I can't find any url in the wiki :/01:31
LaserJockToadstool: no it is a closed source, heavily guarded secret01:31
Toadstool:)01:31
LaserJock;-)01:31
ajmitchmmm, dapper-changes01:31
sistpotyToadstool: it was at least... not sure if it still is... give me a sec01:31
ajmitchsweet GNOME 2.14.201:32
Toadstoolsistpoty: thanks01:32
LaserJockajmitch: where?01:32
ajmitchLaserJock: just a few packages for now01:32
ajmitchlike zenity, pessulus, glib2.001:32
ajmitchdeskbar-applet01:32
ToadstoolI don't want to have to copy/paste the code from trac browser :p01:32
sistpotyToadstool: revu2 svn: http://tiber.tauware.de/svn/revu201:33
Toadstoolcool, thanks :)01:34
sistpotynp01:34
TheMusoWhats better in revu2?01:34
=== LaserJock grabs it before it hits /.
sistpotyTheMuso: it can make coffee and will have lot's of ponies ;)01:34
TheMusoheh01:35
sistpotyand it's not that kind of hack revu1 currently (still) is... but has a more robust codebase01:35
LaserJockit will be soooo worth it to see the ponies on LP ;-)01:35
sistpoty:)01:36
ajmitchthere are some cool backgrounds in ubuntu now01:36
ajmitchlike those of the international space station ;)01:36
LaserJockI wonder how much they had to pay for those? ;-)01:37
ajmitchprobably about 20 million or so01:37
ajmitchtourists...01:37
ajmitch"Ubuntu has the most expensive background images of any distribution out there"01:37
bddebianheh01:38
imbrandonjust please tell me it will still keep me registerd and i dont have to do some pgp signing hoops and i'll be happy01:38
TheMusoAh. We now know when edgy will be opened.01:39
imbrandonTheMuso: we do ?01:39
ajmitchTheMuso: yes, in a few days01:39
LaserJockimbrandon: eventually it will use your LP id01:39
TheMusoYeah I know.01:39
ajmitchimbrandon: see -devel list01:39
imbrandonahh01:39
=== imbrandon needs to read his email more
LaserJockfor some stupid reason I've got -announce on a digest01:40
LaserJockso I got the digest today01:40
TheMusoheh01:40
LaserJockand it had dholbach's Hug Day annoucment from like the 16th01:40
TheMusome should really get onto -announce01:42
ajmitchah, it was -devel-announce, was it?01:43
=== ajmitch put -devel & -devel announce mail in the same folder
TheMusoSmart that.01:43
ajmitchonly smart if I make sure I read all the -devel mail :)01:44
TheMusoheh01:45
=== Yagisan has them separate, because he skips most of -devel due to low signal to noise
ajmitchtrue that01:45
TheMusoI still skim -devel, only because I may miss an interesting message otherwise.01:45
TheMuso...and I don't want to do that.01:45
TheMusoThe most reading I have to do for -devel is when I first check my mail for the day.01:46
TheMusoEven then I mostly read subjects only, and delete ones I am not interested in.01:46
Yagisanstill, compared to d-d, u-d has a higher signal to noise recently, especially after someones recent outburst01:46
ajmitchheh01:46
TheMusooutburst?01:47
=== TheMuso doesn't remember seeing an outburst
Toadstooler, falling asleep on my keyboard... 'night everybody01:47
ajmitchwhich one?01:47
YagisanTheMuso: the secretary saw a legit id, that wasn't government issuesd and flipped out01:47
ajmitchnight Toadstool01:47
bddebianGnight ToadZzZztool01:48
Yagisannight ToadZzZztool01:48
YagisanTheMuso: very much a non-issue, as you shouldn't sign a key if you don't feel the id, identifies the person in front of you01:48
TheMusoum ok01:49
=== TheMuso now doesn't even know what list Yagisan is talking about. :)
=== TheMuso ponders joining edgy changes.
YagisanTheMuso: d-d01:49
TheMusooh ok01:49
TheMusoI'm not on that. :)01:50
LaserJockoh for goodness sakes, that is so dumb01:50
Yagisanand yet, it appears to still be going. If it keeps up Edgy + 2 will beat Etch out the door01:51
Yagisanhmm. why do users feel they can abuse developers about bugs ?01:53
LaserJock?01:54
imbrandonbecouse they are ignorant about the hard work often for free that they put into projects01:54
imbrandonthey == developers01:54
YagisanLaserJock: doing bug triage for my upstream project, and received a torrent of abuse for my efforts01:55
bddebianSuch is the nature unfortunately :-(01:55
=== StevenK is still pondering unsubing from debian-devel
YagisanI understand why the other devs where happy for me to triage. They must be burnt out from that01:56
YagisanStevenK: come on, it's like neighbours, a new drama every day01:56
StevenKYagisan: Yes, the same drama that was on Home and Away a week ago.01:57
StevenKI swear the writers for those two shows are the same people.01:57
YagisanStevenK: they are different shows ?!?01:57
=== spacey [n=herman@ubuntu/member/spacey] has joined #ubuntu-motu
YagisanStevenK: I can't tell them apart01:58
StevenKThe different actors give it away.02:01
YagisanStevenK: actors ? you must be joking. I've seen better acting in a toilet bowl.02:04
bddebianheh02:04
ajmitchYagisan: you haven't seen shortland street over here then02:08
ajmitchcompared to that, both neighbours & H&A have superb acting02:08
Yagisanajmitch: sorry, the last show I saw from you guys was xena. the redhead was nice to look at, but that's about it02:09

LaserJockhmm, it's June, time to cat my irssi logs for May together :-)03:24
ajmitchhehe03:25
ajmitchyou split them by day?03:25
LaserJockI do at first because I can often rememeber what day I want to look through if it is within a week03:26
LaserJockso i'd rather grep through 1 day rather than a month or something03:27
=== ajmitch never bothered with fancy tricks like that
LaserJockI don't know, I'm just getting started with the whole irssi thing03:27
=== Yagisan never remembers, I usually forget the channel and have to grep the whole lot anyway
LaserJockwell I don't have that many channels usually, I have 8 I autojoin03:28
YagisanI have 3 I'm usually in.03:29
FujitsuI have...03:30
LaserJockreally? crimsun has like 40 or something03:30
=== Fujitsu counts.
=== ajmitch has 30 or so
ajmitchI haven't counted03:30
FujitsuAround 25, on various networks.03:30

theCoreis there big capatibility issues between Ubuntu and Debian?09:59
tsengwhat do you mean by capability09:59
tsengis the word you are looking for "compatibility"?09:59
tuxmaniactseng: thats understood :-)10:00
tsengthey mean completely different things.10:00
theCorecompatibility*10:01
tsengno, there are not issues10:01
tsengalmost everything will work with a simple rebuild10:01
tsengif even that is nessecary10:01
tsengI recommend it10:01
=== plugwash just wishes that someone with permission to do so would upload some freepascal binaries
theCoretseng: so, Debian packages works without any changes on Ubuntu, and vis versa?10:02
tsengalmost always10:02
_ionthecore: The source packages pretty much do.10:02
tsenga few things not10:02
plugwashtheCore the pacakge format is the same but sometimes rebuilding is nessacery due to dependency issues10:02
theCoretseng: which?10:03
tsengI dont know?10:03
tsengwe change a handful of things10:03
tsengI cant say whether your package is changed or not10:03
tsengsince you didnt mention what it is10:03
plugwashin particular debian/ubuntu use a dependency scanning system that means packages don't tend to install on systems older than the one they were built on10:03
tsengchances are a rebuild is plenty10:03
bmontytheCore: you could also have wierd problems since there might be different libs or compilers between debian and ubuntu10:04
bmontyrebuilds will usually fix that10:04
theCoreso there's no problem adding a source repository from Debian on a Ubuntu system?10:05
crimsuntheCore: the ones in Debian that most likely won't are the ones in /current/ unstable and experimental10:05
crimsuntheCore: meaning more recently versioned build-dependencies10:06
bmontyanyone know how to list the bus ids for pci express?10:06
theCoreok, thanks all10:06

spaceyok :p11:50
spaceyi don't play games myself11:50
spaceybut i thought it looked interesting11:50
spaceythey said it was based on the quake2 gpl engine11:50
spaceyapparently its not free software11:51
\shspacey: it has a gnu license shiped ;) because they use SDL11:55
\shbut I don't find the source, or is it the SDK?11:55
spaceyno idea11:56
=== imbrandon [n=brandon@unaffiliated/imbrandon] has joined #ubuntu-motu
_ionThe game seems very nice. I hope it really is open source. I skimmed through the file list of the SDK archive, it _might_ contain the whole source for the game.11:59
_ionI think they have to publish the source because it's based on the q2 engine.11:59
\sh_ion: try to build it ;)11:59
_ionsh: Right now i'm too tired, but i'll probably try tomorrow.12:00
_ionI'm about to go to sleep.12:00
\sh_ion: hehe :) I can understand that....I will go to bed just now too12:00
spaceyalso important how the artwork is licensed. it doesn't have to be free because of the engine12:01
