( sorry for the ping in -devel ) [08:08] thought i was in here [08:09] hi. [08:10] heya crimsun i got a question , i dont think you can give me a definate awnser but i would like your input since your more experinced in FOSS than I [08:10] ok .... === nathandh [n=nathandh@dD5779A06.access.telenet.be] has joined #ubuntu-motu [08:11] there is an upstream project i put into ubuntu but upstream is unresponsive after weeks of emails but i have pactches i would like to see everone get ( including ubuntu ) [08:11] what would be the "right way" to go about it? a fork ? and i just stick my own repo up on sf.net or somesuch ? [08:12] i'm not a sf.net fan but you get the idea [08:12] imbrandon: the best solution, particularly if the project has a public mailing list, is to break out your patches into logically applicable (small) pieces and attach them to e-mails sent to the public mailing list. [08:13] ahh no ther is no public list, tbh its a small project not used by many i dont think [08:13] but is very usefull and thus far uptodate but there are things i have inproved ( its only a perl script in reality ) [08:13] the apt-mirror thing specificly is what i'm talking aobut [08:14] but yea i have sent the patches to the current maintainer and qurey emails reguarding if he is still actively maintaing it etc [08:14] and no response ( although the email dont bounce either ) [08:15] my approach is fairly "anti-fork", meaning that there doesn't seem to be a reason to "fork" apt-mirror. Instead I would host a page providing links to my patches for apt-proxy. Perhaps at a later date, you may take up upstream maintenance of the project, whereupon you'll become 'upstream' upstream. [08:15] On the other hand, real life often gets in the way of a part-time project, so give it a couple months before doing anything like that. [08:15] s/apt-proxy/apt-mirror/ [08:16] right ok, so for now just host a page somewhere with patches to the sf proj and include them in ubuntu and post on the sf page bboard ( that still seems semi active ) pointing ppl to the patches if they want them ? [08:16] well, if it's a sf project it should have a bug tracker, no? [08:16] you can file bugs in that bug tracker and attach your patches to them. [08:16] yes and i have fixed all open bugs so far [08:16] and a few not listed [08:16] ahh ok [08:17] sounds like a good plan [08:17] then revisit in a few months if nothing comes of it right ? [08:17] ( the idea ) [08:17] I would also file bugs in Debian's BTS with the same "attach patch" idea. [08:17] (and please fix the broken versioning!) [08:17] yea i dont really like forks either, just not had much experince with this kinda thing === viviersf [n=cain@196.44.1.98] has joined #ubuntu-motu [08:18] frankly there's no reason to fork, since if maintenance is the real issue, and you have resources to devote to maintaining it, you could become the upstream maintainer in the future. [08:18] yea definatley but why debian bts , its not in debian yet, but i WOULD like to see it get into debian just havent looked into getting someone to sponsor me [08:18] there are random DDs floating around [08:19] ah, ok. I was operating under the assumption that it was in Debian, but I remember the package now. [08:19] yea i just havent looked into it yet, ubuntu was my first foray into the debian world ( was a suse guy before here ) [08:19] yea its only in ubuntu and sf.net [08:19] afaik [08:20] unless it very reciently made it into unstable from someone else [08:21] ok here is my .plan then i guess, clean up my patches a bit and attache them to the sf tracker , also get them updated in ubuntu ( thats the easy part ) then look into someone sponsoring it into unstable [08:21] that pretty much what your saying would be the "right thing" atm ?

[11:41] ish [11:41] or you could just wait until the site comes back up :) [11:42] yep I think I'll do that [11:42] how long does it take to learn how to package stuff anyway? considering I'm quite a noob [11:43] I'd like to contribute, but I don't have too much time or talent for IT [11:43] I mean, can I do a decent job with just some basic knowledge, or should I learn like hundreds of terms I don't know now? [11:46] you hve to learn, but not hundred of terms [11:46] hundreds [11:46] I wouldn't like to bite more than I can chew [11:47] anyway I'm reading the guide now [11:47] hopefully I'll learn something useful :) [11:47] I'm sure you will :) [12:03] hi [12:08] I have a doubt with the part about creating a pbuilder... if I want any packages I create to be included in Edgy, must I create a special pebuilder? [12:09] an edgy pbuilder :) [12:10] aham... so unless I do this, any packages I create would be essentially useless as long as MOTU are concerned right? [12:11] not really [12:11] hi zakame [12:11] a pbuilder-built package serves as a guarantee that a package can be built against a particular suite [12:11] hi Gloubiboulga :) [12:12] sorry to be a nuisance... but, for example, supposing I want this package on the official repos: http://timesaver.sourceforge.net/ [12:13] the right thing to do would be to build it, then hand it over to you guys, right? [12:16] but obviously it should be compiled for Edgy because Dapper repos are closed already [12:16] am I right? [12:18] yup, that pkg will go to edgy [12:18] if it has some security fixes against the previous version, it might make it into dapper-security or d-updates though === ivoks [n=ivoks@ubuntu/member/ivoks] has joined #ubuntu-motu === TomaszD [n=tom@unaffiliated/tomaszd] has joined #ubuntu-motu [12:21] I was thinking about a previously inexistant package, so it would be backports at most [12:22] so, where it says sudo pbuilder create --distribution , would =? [12:23] if you're using edgy, yes [12:24] on dapper it'll fail, since the dapper pbuilder doesn't know about edgy [12:24] actually I'm on dapper, the guide says "If you want to create a pbuilder for a release newer than the one you currently have installed" [12:25] on dapper you can create a dapper chroot, then dist-upgrade it [12:26] s/chroot/pbuilder [12:27] right, I'm getting really lost now. Let me further look at the guide to have a wider view, I don't want to bother you with basic questions :S [12:27] ok, but you don't bother us ;) [12:28] I could of course upgrade my system to edgy... do you think it's safe enough already? [12:28] I've been tempted [12:29] I'm running edgy, but really you can keep dapper to build edgy packages [12:30] not _really_. [12:31] tseng, "not _really_." for testing?

[07:41] should I version it -0.51- or 0.5.1- [07:42] do they expect to go make 0.6? [07:42] yes [07:42] because then you would be screwed [07:42] sigh [07:42] you should lart them [07:42] politely as you can [07:42] I have pretty good communication with upstream so maybe we can "have a talk" ;-) [07:43] good. [07:43] you can also version it 0.51, and, if they decide to go for 0.6, use epoch [07:44] can I just version it 0.5.1 and talk to upstream? [07:44] you could, if its not in Debian [07:44] it is in Debian [07:44] as 0.5.1? [07:44] that's what I'm packaging it for [07:44] oh. [07:44] this is one I maintain in Debian [07:44] reversioning things really sucks [07:46] hmmm, maybe I'll email the author and see if he is close to doing another release, which he can version right [07:46] yeah that would be nice [07:46] and I'll skip the minor release [07:46] multiplying your version by 10 and adding one is a pretty shit way to do a point release [07:49] hehe, what's in a . ? ;-) [07:49] common sense [07:51] ajmitch, if it really is common, why don't many people have it ?

[08:50] I have figured out I can use debchange and debuild, but just want to know the "correct" way to go [08:50] kozz: if the current source package uses a patch system use that, if it doesn't just modify the file [08:51] right, so it is different in different packages [08:51] yeah [08:51] ohh.. [08:51] but thanks [08:51] kozz: what package are you working on?

[08:53] only for powerpc [08:53] but it is in all releases [08:54] not sure about hoary, but since breezy at least [08:54] kozz: have you looked to see if edgy has fixed it? [08:54] yes, the problem occured in edgy :) [08:55] kozz: what file do you want to change? [08:56] I have already built the new package with the fix and it works, but people seems slow to read the bug reports, though it maybe was possible to make a sponsored upload [08:57] just add -fno-stack-protector in the Makefile [08:57] in the directory boot === bddebian gets back to merge/syncs [08:58] kozz: yeah, that's a debian-native package [08:58] kozz: so you changed the file, then did you make a changelog entry? [08:58] yes [08:59] k [08:59] and then used dpkg -i to install it [08:59] ok [08:59] so did you run debuild -S ? [09:00] no [09:01] what did you run to build a .deb? [09:01] fakeroot dpkg-buildpackage [09:01] hmm [09:02] ? :) [09:02] ok, try running debuild -S to create a source package [09:02] it's generally not a great idea to build a .deb like that. it can mess around with the source package [09:03] ok, maybe should clean it first then [09:03] it might be a good idea [09:08] ok, seems to work fine [09:08] so would it be possible for me to upload it as a sponsored upload?
