LaserJockazeem: wahoo!12:44
LaserJockazeem: how long should it take to hit the archives? incoming is pretty fast, right?12:48
azeemit's past dinstall, it'll get installed tomorrow12:49
azeemin about 20 hours12:49
LaserJockgreat12:50
LaserJockhave you seen the Ubuntu patches?12:50
crimsun(we can sync from incoming if you need it synced)12:51
LaserJockwell, it won't hurt to wait12:52
crimsunsurely won't12:52
LaserJockI'm just excited, that's all12:54
crimsuntime to snarf some patches12:54
LaserJockit's the app that could make my department turn to linux :-)12:54
LaserJockmwuahahaha12:55
azeemLaserJock: I synced with Ubuntu in 1.91-312:55
LaserJockazeem: ok, great. I hope we did things ok on the Ubuntu end12:56
LaserJockthe more I work on Ubuntu the more I hate divergence12:56
LaserJockok, I don't get the difference between Build-Depends and Build-Depends-Indep12:57
azeemBuild-Depends-Indep is only useful if you build both binary-arch and binary-indep pacakges12:57
azeemyou can put stuff in there which is needed during the build-indep: target12:58
azeemlike tetex, jadetex, sgml stuff, etc.12:58
LaserJockhmm, so if a package has only binary-indep?12:59
azeemeverything needed for clean: has to be in Build-Depends01:00
LaserJockright01:00
LaserJockand everything else in Build-Depends-Indep?01:00
azeemso I guess it makes no sense to split it up into B-D and B-D-I in those cases01:00
LaserJockI don't quit understand how to seperate what's Build-Depends and B-D-I01:01
=== cbx33 [n=pete@ubuntu/member/cbx33] has joined #ubuntu-motu
cbx33I'm here01:01
azeemcbx33: welcome back01:01
cbx33hi azeem01:01
LaserJockI understand that B-D is for clean01:01
azeemLaserJock: I'd rather say B-D is for everything01:01
LaserJockwell, yes01:01
azeemexcept for additional stuff needed for binary-all packages, like building documentation01:02
LaserJockbut the difference between B-D and B-D-I seems to be mostly in the clean rule01:02
azeemthat's just an artefact of policy IMHO01:02
LaserJockk01:02
LaserJockok, so the Policy footnote has: If you make "build-indep" or "binary-indep", you need Build-Depends and Build-Depends-Indep.01:03
azeemhrm01:03
LaserJockso do you put everything but what is needed in clean: in B-D-I?01:03
LaserJockI *kinda* understand the difference between B-D and B-D-I but I don't quite get how you tell what to put in each01:05
cbx33and I'm completely lost on both01:05
LaserJockhttp://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html01:06
azeemLaserJock: both Build-Depends and Build-Depends-Indep (if present) need to be satisfied at build:01:06
=== Heretician [i=Heretici@69-162-126-203.clvdoh.adelphia.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu
LaserJockright01:06
azeemso most libfoo-dev are for Build-Depends01:06
LaserJockonly B-D at clean01:06
azeemwhile the debhelper/cdbs/dpatch etc. stuff is needed at clean01:07
azeemunfortunately, there's no destinction between the two01:07
azeembut you can't put the libfoo-dev (which isn't needed at clean) into B-D-I, that would break debian/rules build-arch01:08
azeemif present01:08
crimsuncbx33: because you migrated B-D -> B-D-I in debian/control, you need to make the corresponding adjustments in debian/rules01:08
cbx33ok01:08
cbx33can you help me with that01:08
cbx33everything has been moved to build-indep01:09
LaserJockok, so I'm guess (from the Policy and lintian output) that if you are using binary-indep you should put the all the deps in B-D-I except those needed for the clean rule01:09
cbx33which would be debhelper?01:09
LaserJockat least in cbx33's case were he has no binary-dep01:09
LaserJockcbx33: right01:09
cbx33so i need build-depends01:11
azeemnote that the point of B-D-I was to avoid having to install those on the autobuilders01:11
cbx33and build-depends-indep01:11
azeemIMHO it's fine to just have everything in B-D for pure Arch: all packages, but maybe there is a rule against01:11
crimsuncbx33: things like cdbs, debhelper, and python should not be B-D-I01:12
crimsuncbx33: things like python-all-dev and python-central should be B-D-I01:12
cbx33ok01:13
LaserJockcbx33: I think you problem was because you had some stuff in binary-indep and some stuf in binary-arch01:13
LaserJockwhen you should have all of it in binary-indep01:13

cbx33and LaserJock did you say I shoulnd't?01:14
LaserJocknot exactly01:14
crimsunyou /should/ split them.01:14
LaserJockcrimsun: binary-indep and binary-arch in debian/rules?01:15
crimsunI'm referring to debian/control atm01:16

LaserJockcbx33: ok, that looks sane to me01:22
LaserJockcrimsun: what do you think?01:22
crimsunhe needs to run lintian01:23
crimsunI think it may barf on dh_py* being in binary-indep, which would make sense01:23

cbx33i was wrong01:33

LaserJockit's now Ubuntu lintian/linda clean ;-)01:33
crimsunby-run, yes. But semantically, we should check w/ doko01:33
cbx33ok01:34
cbx33are you going to wait to upload until that is checked?01:34
LaserJockit's probably better to get it right the first time then have to upload a new package01:35
LaserJockI'm not sure what time doko will be around01:35
LaserJockbut it shouldn't take too long to get it settled, and if anybody can settle it it'd be doko01:36

FunnyLookinHatHobbsee, he's created them correctly with all the right changelog formatting and stuff05:48
FunnyLookinHatHobbsee, http://hamsta.net/mythtv/files/dapper/05:48

hereticianI guess it's talking about apt-cache search09:18
Hobbseei'd say so09:19
hereticiansudo apt-get build-dep <package> - will that also show the location of the dependencies installed on your system? Like if ya need to add those dependencies to the package.09:20
Hobbseeheretician: er, it'll show you the ones that arent installed, and give you teh otpion to install them09:21

hereticianFor a package10:38
ToadstoolHobbsee: tss :)10:38
HobbseeToadstool: what's the extended form of that?10:38
Gloubiboulgaheretician, if it uses the autotools but the configure is not generated yet, you'll have to generate it in debian/rules10:39
Gloubiboulgaand as Hobbsee said, you'll need to build-depend on autoconf & co to make this work10:40

HobbseeGloubiboulga: what's the syntax for that?  feel free to point me to documentation10:41
GloubiboulgaHobbsee, hm, google? I don't know where you can find documentation10:42
hereticianbasically what i was trying to avoid asking is something that is really making me misunderstand this entire guide-- some places it adds in the <package name> detail at the end of a command, and sometimes it doesnt. Im not sure if I should use those commands that it does not add <package name> at the end WITH or WITHOUT the package name at the end10:42
HobbseeGloubiboulga: a package with a similar situation, where i could grab the source would do :P10:42
hereticianlike ./configure for example10:42
hereticianis it ./configure <variable> <package name> or just ./configure <variable>?10:42
Gloubiboulgaah!10:43
Gloubiboulgano need to add the <package name>10:43
GloubiboulgaHobbsee, usually you don't find such packages10:43
