crimsunantinobody: let's start with qterm [http://merges.ubuntu.com/q/qterm/REPORT] 06:41
crimsunantinobody: generally I keep three separate Web browser tabs open: 1) package/REPORT; 2) http://packages.ubuntu.com/src:package ; 3) http://packages.qa.debian.org/srcpackage06:42
crimsun(1) refers to the MoM REPORT; (2) refers to Ubuntu's package info; (3) refers to Debian's package info06:43
crimsunso starting with (1), or the MoM REPORT, the first thing to do is check whether there are outstanding conflicts in the autogenerated merge. If there are, they will be listed toward the end of the REPORT marked by "C" or "C*"06:44

antinobody_crimsun: nope06:45
antinobody_crimsun: sorry06:45
antinobody_crimsun: had to reboot into the kubuntu edgy install, it's the only one with a pbuilder environment set up06:45
crimsunantinobody_: let's start with qterm [http://merges.ubuntu.com/q/qterm/REPORT] 06:45
crimsunantinobody_: generally I keep three separate Web browser tabs open: 1) package/REPORT; 2) http://packages.ubuntu.com/src:package ; 3) http://packages.qa.debian.org/srcpackage06:45
antinobody_okay06:45
crimsunantinobody_: (1) refers to the MoM REPORT; (2) refers to Ubuntu's package info; (3) refers to Debian's package info06:46
crimsunantinobody_:  so starting with (1), or the MoM REPORT, the first thing to do is check whether there are outstanding conflicts in the autogenerated merge. If there are, they will be listed toward the end of the REPORT marked by "C" or "C*"06:46
crimsunantinobody_: (I'll give you a sec to catch up)06:47
antinobody_right, I don't see any06:47
crimsunantinobody_: right, so in this case, we just need to inspect the merged source package06:47
antinobody_I see06:48
crimsunantinobody_: I have a /tmp/merges/  , and I just use: ../grab-merge.sh qterm06:48
crimsun[http://merges.ubuntu.com/grab-merge.sh] 06:48
antinobody_right, I'm familiar, and have a similar folder06:48
crimsunantinobody_: since the merge turned out ok, we just need to eyeball what the Debian source package has versus what we have06:49
crimsunso I'll first use [http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/q/qterm/qterm_0.4.0pre3-2.1.dsc]  and [http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/universe/q/qterm/qterm_0.4.0pre3-2ubuntu1/changelog] 06:50
crimsunthe main things I'm checking for are whether Debian's build-dependencies have absorbed Ubuntu's06:51
antinobody_I see06:51
crimsunhere we see that Debian Sid's package is still building against python2.3-dev, but we migrated to python2.4-dev in Dapper06:52

antinobody_crimsun: what exactly are you doing with the .dsc file that tells you the builddeps?06:53
crimsunantinobody_: the Build-Depends line at [http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/q/qterm/qterm_0.4.0pre3-2.1.dsc] 06:53
crimsunantinobody_: note that's also in your merge directory06:54
antinobody_crimsun: that's simple enough, thanks, I just forgot .dsc's were text files06:55
crimsunnext, it's time to update debian/changelog06:55
crimsunso replace "Ubuntu Merge-o-Matic <mom@ubuntu.com>" with your own info06:55
crimsunin the changelog entry, it's good practice to note what happened to Ubuntu changes06:56
crimsunso I used "- debian/control: Retain python2.4-dev build-dependency."06:57
antinobody_right, easier for the next guy to find06:57
antinobody_or girl06:57
crimsunnext, I use ``fakeroot ../merge-buildpackage -k<your_key_id>''06:58

antinobody_no, no, I found it, it just spits out that error07:01

crimsunyum, lots of conflicts07:08
crimsunso I grab the merge07:08
crimsun...and look at debian/control07:08
crimsunso the first diff3 hunk is pretty straightforward07:09

crimsunthe only thing I need to do, if I intend to keep the delta (difference from Debian packaging), is remove the build-dependency on python2.3-dev07:10
bddebianGnight folks07:10
antinobody_gnight bddebian07:11
crimsunsecond hunk is a bit more interesting07:12
crimsunlet's presume for the moment that I want to retain the delta and just ship for python2.407:12
antinobody_ok07:12
crimsunI just need to delete that whole Ubuntu section07:13
crimsunthen change "Depends: python2.3-quixote (=${Source-Version})" to "Depends: python2.4-quixote (=${Source-Version})"07:14
crimsunthen remove the rest of the binary package section for python2.3-quixote07:15
crimsunnow as a side note, what I could have done is gone with the python-support transition, which eliminates all this juggling of python2.x{,-dev}07:15
crimsunin any case, I now have a python2.4-only quixote debian/control07:16
antinobody_by "that whole Ubuntu section" you were referring to the <<<<<<< quixote-2.3-4.1ubuntu1 (ubuntu) line, right?07:17
crimsunjust those three lines, yes07:17
Lathiatah i love bzr and how you can just init the repo in a directory and off you go07:17
crimsunLathiat: indeed.07:18
crimsuntoo bad that inital push has that comestic bug07:18
Lathiatcosmetic bug07:18
Lathiat?07:18
crimsunreally turned me for a loop when I first saw "0 revision(s)..."07:18
crimsuninitial, rather07:19
Lathiathrm07:19
Lathiatdont remember that07:19
crimsunantinobody_: ok, the next file mentioned, debian/postinst, can be ignored07:21
crimsunantinobody_: so we can just remove debian/postinst.UBUNTU07:21
antinobody_is debian/postint always unimporant? or is there something about this case that makes it so?07:23
crimsunantinobody_: no, this is an individual case07:23
crimsunantinobody_: the reason is that the newer Debian source package no longer uses a debian/postinst07:24
antinobody_crimsun: ah...07:24
crimsunas for debian/quixote.lintian, we should remove the ubuntu section and leave only the debian one07:25
crimsunin debian/rules, we'll go with Debian, so we'll kill the PYTHON var07:27
crimsunthen all we have to do is comment out references to $(PYTHON23)07:28
crimsunone in build-stamp, two in clean, and two in install07:29
crimsunthen you can merge-buildpackage again, build it, test it, upload it07:30
crimsunbut in this case, I'm going to be lazy and request a sync07:30
antinobody_two in clean?07:30
crimsunerr, no, I'm going to merge it but add the python2.3 version07:31
crimsunyeah, there're:07:31
crimsun#       $(PYTHON23) setup.py clean --all07:31
crimsun#       -rm -rf $(CURDIR)/debian/python2.3-quixote07:31
crimsunalthough I suppose you don't /have/ to comment the second because of the -f07:32
antinobody_ok, I see07:32
crimsunantinobody_: any clearer now?07:37
antinobody_crimsun: a bit07:37
crimsunonce you work through several more, you'll get the hang of it07:37
antinobody_it seems like the kind of thing only practice can solidify07:37
crimsunright07:37
antinobody_crimsun: how do I report these?07:38
crimsun"these" being...?07:38
antinobody_crimsun: merges/syncs which have been checked/fixed07:39
crimsunif you work on a merge, you can either file a bug in Launchpad and assign it to motureviewers; or you upload merged source packages to REVU, or you can file sync requests and have a MOTU sign off/approve, then subscribe ubuntu-archive07:40
antinobody_ok, if I file a bug, would it make sense to uplead the packages to REVU as well?07:40
crimsungenerally, yes07:41

fowlduckcrimsun, how do I make it honour $DESTDIR?10:43
crimsunfowlduck: change the destination10:44
crimsun$(DESTDIR)10:45
crimsunthen in debian/rules, make sure you pass DESTDIR=$(pwd)/debian/foobarblah10:45
fowlduckcrimsun, it uses three different destinations, one for man, one for bin, and one for conf10:46
crimsunsurely you can coalesce them?10:46
crimsunif they install to $DESTDIR/usr/share/man/, $DESTDIR/usr/bin/, and $DESTDIR/etc/, respectively, that would be sufficient10:48
fowlduckWell, I'd have to install them in the same directory then, currently BIN=/usr/bin, MAN=/usr/share/man/man1/, and CONF=....10:48
fowlduckok, cool10:48
fowlduckheh, sorry about all the dumb questions, I'm tryin here :D10:48
crimsunI take it this package does not use autotools?10:48
fowlducknope10:49
crimsunah.10:49
fowlducknot that I can tell, I guess I don't know what autotools are10:49
crimsunautoconf, automake, libtool10:49

fowlducktseng, so it automatically creates a "debian/packagename" directory in the pbulder environment, into which the files are installed?02:37
tsengthe "pbuilder environment" has nothing to do with it02:37
fowlduckok?02:38
tsengbut yes if makes a folder where you put the DESTDIR, under debian/foo02:38
tsengand from that02:38
tsengyou copy those files into the package02:38
tsengto ultimately be installed on your real filesystem02:38
fowlduck"if makes"02:38
tsengin between make install and building the package you can add/move/delete files02:38
tseng...it02:39
fowlduckand the files are installed under debian/foo with the same path they would have in the real filesystem?  ex: /usr/bin/foremost would be in $(CURDIR)/debian/foremost/usr/bin/foremost?02:40
tsengyes02:41
fowlduckok, i see, so it's more or less a template of where they will go in the actual filesystem.  The dirs file holds what directories are to be created in the mock filesystem and make install actually puts them there02:42

fowlduckoh, hum05:28
tsengit might just be things in /etc05:29
fowlducktseng, precisely what I'm trying to remove05:29
fowlducktseng, specifically with dpkg -r purge package05:29
tsengyes?05:29
fowlduckso how do I go about identifying them to debhelper?05:30
fowlduckas conf files05:30
tsengi dont understand05:30
tsengyour statements seem contradictory05:30
fowlduckok, as it is my conf files are not being removed for some reason, even when I do a purge.  I'm trying to figure out how to allow them to be removed with purge, but not with normal package removal05:31
fowlduckas in, I'm trying to figure out how to get dpkg to treat them as conf files05:31
tsengbeats me05:31
fowlduckwhereas right now it seems oblivious to their existence during removal05:31
fowlduckok05:31
fowlduckthanks05:31
tsengI dont package daemons05:32
fowlduckI'm going to try adding conffiles.ex, the docs seem to indicate to me that this isn't correct, but it's worth a shot05:33

fowlduckany idea how it decides where to install it?06:27
fbondhmm, one sec let me look at a package I did06:27
azeemyou have to install them yourself, they just get flagged as conffiles then, AFAIK06:27
fowlduckdoes it need to be similar to packagename.install, where it's package name then path06:27
fowlduckazeem, so they must be included in packagename.install then06:28

fbondfowlduck, I think that debhelper will automatically assume anything in /etc is a conffile anyway, so you may not need to worry about it06:29
fbondin fact, if you include a conffiles file, and debhelper also picks  up your conffiles, you can get an error06:29

fowlducktseng, i found out how to handle those conf files.  you install them normally using dh_install, then you use postrm to remove them.  postrm is always called with an argument of either purge or remove.  If remove is used then postrm is not deleted and is available to be used for purging later.  If purge is used then postrm is run then removed.07:30
