=== rodarvus is about to crash
rodarvusguys, status update so you can continue tomorrow morning ;)04:51
rodarvusall xserver-xorg-driver-* NEW packages are uploaded, but with a few considerations:04:51
rodarvus1. I haven't received any email about -ati (nor it shows on my "uploaded package list" - don't know why04:52
rodarvus2. it was possible to almost-merge -ati, keeping only a small patch (the rest of the changes was already present on debian package, which was newer version)04:53
rodarvus3. -sunffb has our source code, as agreed with fabbione04:53
rodarvus4. -mga and -rendition are dfsg-compliant. talking with fabbione on #ubuntu-x earlier today, fabbione says this is not necessary - in this case I believe we should Reject these two packages from NEW and reupload them, with binary blobs included04:55
rodarvusI asked mdz to Reject them for me, but no news yet (up to you guys, if you want to reupload them before I arrive - I can do that tomorrow morning, but will be in UTC-3 timezone)04:57
rodarvusanyhow, x-pkgs is updated, as usual - I believe we can move on and update xorg, plus accept the *-video-* packages04:58
rodarvusgood night all :)04:58

fabbionesomebody wants to look at #5253808:05
fabbionei can't reproduce it here and i am not feeling good08:06
fabbioneso i am going to crash in bed right now08:06
fabbionebah there fixed08:19
!lilo:*! hi all....harassment attack on tor connections....new connects are mostly blocked atm10:10
!lilo:*! apologies for the inconvenience10:10
!lilo:*! (the problem only affects tor connects....apologies for the inconvenience, and thank you for your patience)10:11
Kamionrodarvus: rejected -mga and -rendition at your request11:56
Kamionrodarvus: shouldn't xserver-xorg-video-s3 provides: xserver-xorg-video?12:00
Kamion(not a NEW blocker though)12:00
Kamionrodarvus: ditto -sunffb12:08
rodarvusgood morning12:52
rodarvusKamion: thanks for the approvals and rejects12:52
rodarvusyou're right, -s3 and -sunffb are supposed to have Provides: xserver-xorg-video12:52
rodarvusI'll upload new releases of them in a minute12:53
rodarvus(and prepare NEW -mga & -rendition too)12:53
Mithrandirrodarvus: have you begun looking at -input-* yet?12:54
rodarvusMithrandir: no, I plan to do that in one hour, likely, as soon as I finish with *-video-*12:54
rodarvus(probably less time)12:55
rodarvusstrange, xserver-xorg-video-ati really didn't show up on NEW, nor I received any email about it (yes, I have the .upload here :) )12:56
Mithrandirok, goodie.12:56
Kamionrodarvus: http://librarian.launchpad.net/3336896/shhSW96LMQZLlmZi4xaLb3Kx0JK.txt01:10
Kamionwhich is bizarre01:10
Kamionoh, you're already looking into it on ##soyuz1.0, ok01:11
rodarvusKamion: soyuz says the package wasn't signed, which is quite strange - as package signing is an automatic part of the build01:11
Kamionright01:11
Kamionwell, no, it doesn't say it wasn't signed, it says it can't find the public key01:12
rodarvusanyway, I'm rebuilding it now, and will double check it is correctly signed before the new upload01:12
rodarvuseven worse :)01:13
rodarvusI only have one private key here01:13
Mithrandirso, what's the plan for the fonts mess?  Move fonts, make them depend on the newer server where the paths are hard coded and then update everything else?01:23
fabbioneMithrandir: you can either leave them where they are or move them01:24
fabbionewe could just hardencode in the server the different paths we did use in the past01:24
KamionI'd move them and leave a transitional symlink behind01:24
fabbioneand clean up the configs01:25
Kamionor what fabbione sai01:25
Kamiond01:25
fabbioneKamion: no need of a symlink01:25
fabbionei did check it here01:25
Kamionyeah, that might be less pain than a symlink01:25
Mithrandirok, let's hardcode the paths for now.01:25
Kamionserver> and libfontenc or whatever it is01:25
Mithrandirunless somebody complains?01:25
Mithrandirfabbione: is it trivial to find where it's hardcoded or can you do it?  (Yes, I realise you're sick ATM)01:25
KamionI definitely merged some library that had a hardcoded font path01:25
fabbionei see no point in complaining. it's like adding another set of Path in the config01:25
fabbionethey just get skipped if non-valid or empty01:26
fabbioneMithrandir: yes, it's really easy. there is already a patch in debian/patches for that01:26
fabbioneMithrandir: and yes i would love to go back to sleep01:26
Mithrandirfabbione: ok, cheers.  Go back to sleep, then01:26
fabbioneMithrandir: but you can start doing the transition. How has this server has both paths already01:26
fabbioneeither in the config01:26
fabbioneor hardcoded01:26
fabbioneonce we finish the transition you can clean up dexconf to not write them at all01:27
fabbioneor write them both and remove the hardencoding01:27
fabbioneor any combination01:27
fabbioneanyway01:27
=== fabbione &
Mithrandiranyway, the fonts will be built-in soon so the server won't have to care.01:28
rodarvusKamion: I've seen you approved -ati already, thanks01:42
rodarvusI also uploaded -s3 and -sunffb with correct provides01:42
rodarvus(they were already accepted too)01:42
rodarvusand finally, -mga & -rendition, which are sitting in NEW01:42
=== Mithrandir wonders why his xfonts-base suddenly didn't contain any files.
Kamionhmm, there's an argument that the microcode in those drivers should live in restricted02:24
Kamionbut it's an argument I don't really care to have right now02:24
Kamionthat way lies a big smelly can of worms02:25
rodarvusKamion: *nods*, thats why I "played it safe" in the first upload02:26
rodarvusMithrandir: did you touched any of the *-input-* packages?02:35
rodarvus(apparently at least -mouse and -evdev were uploaded)02:36
Mithrandirrodarvus: I did those two merges yesterday, yes.02:38
rodarvusMithrandir: do you mind if I continue with the rest? (or you plan to do them yourself?)02:40
Mithrandirno, please do02:41
rodarvusI will02:41
rodarvusam I the only one with uninstallable package 'xorg'?02:41
rodarvus(which in turn is depending on old xfont-* packages + libgl1-mesa-glx)02:42
rodarvusif not, is anyone else already working on fixing this?02:42
rodarvusbuild on sparc failed for xserver-xorg-video-newport and xserver-xorg-video-i810 -> https://launchpad.net/+builds/+build/226238 and https://launchpad.net/+builds/+build/22625302:45
rodarvusbut both packages above don't even have "sparc" in the list of architectures to be built on (and this is on purpose)02:45
rodarvusdo we need to blacklist build of these packages on sparc somewhere else, or just let it be this way?02:46
Mithrandirno, you're not the only one.02:46
Mithrandiryes, they'll need to be added to a blacklist.  Just ignore that for now.02:47
Kamionthe blacklist in question is called Packages-arch-specific (or PaS); infinity can edit it for you when he's aroun02:50
Kamiond02:50
rodarvusMithrandir: and regarding fonts, are you (or someone else) working on them?02:52
MithrandirI was planning on starting with them unless you beat me to it.02:52
rodarvusI'm working on *-input-* now, but can change to fonts if its more urgent02:52
Mithrandirnah, just do -input-* first.02:53
rodarvusok02:53
rodarvusKamion: I'll ask inifinity when he's around, thanks!02:54
Mithrandirok, I have a patch which codes in the correct font path, including legacy paths.03:32
Kamionlibraries too?03:37
Mithrandirdoing the server first, but I'll poke the library while the server's compiling03:44
Mithrandirmeh, it'll change the API of libfontenc.03:49
Mithrandirbut then , libfontenc just cares about the encoding directore.03:49
Mithrandirdirectory, even03:49
Kamionmaybe that can be flag-dayed03:50
Kamion(ugh)03:50
rodarvus-acecad, -aiptek, -calcomp, -digitaledge manually synced (and uploaded). -citron automatic sync requested03:51

MithrandirKamion: I wonder if all accesses to encodings is going through libfontenc or not..03:52
Mithrandirthe server itself doesn't seem to care.03:53
rodarvus-dmc, -dynapro, -elographics, -fpit, -hyperpen manually synced (and uploaded)04:05
rodarvusLOCK on the rest of the xserver-xorg-input-* packages04:06

rodarvusMithrandir: ping05:48
rodarvusI'm merging xserver-xorg-input-synaptics now05:49
rodarvusdebian has a new upstream version (0.14.5) and we have 0.14.305:49
rodarvusbut we have a patch specific for ALPS devices, which is not applied (at least not completely)05:50
rodarvusinto their version05:50
rodarvusdo you suggest we manually merge this patch, or leave it for now?05:50
rodarvusalso note that, if we do merge, I won't be able to test it myself05:51
rodarvusfabbione, Kamion, Mithrandir: is any of you against me doing the move from xserver-xorg-driver-all to xserver-xorg-video-all? If so, please say something in the next three hours :)07:10
rodarvusotherwise, I plan to upload xorg-7.0.22ubuntu2 (with this change) at 20:10 UTC07:11
rodarvusbtw, I have already opened the support request to move bugs from *-driver-* to *-video-*07:12
