FujitsuWhat's up with it?01:49
LaserJockit doesn't work01:50
Fujitsu!doesn't work01:50
ubotuDoesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.01:50
FujitsuHahah.01:50
LaserJockhehe01:50
FujitsuI love that factoid.01:50
LaserJockwell, I'd like to start up either gnome or kde01:50
LaserJockI can get a blank xnest window if I do sudo Xnest :101:51
LaserJockbut I can't seem to get it to open anything up in it01:51
LaserJockor get gnome or kde to start up01:51
FujitsuSo you just get the checkered X background?01:51
LaserJockI found several hints online but none seem to work01:51
LaserJockyeah01:51
FujitsuI presume you set DISPLAY appropriately?01:51
LaserJockhmm, I didn't set DISPLAY01:52
FujitsuWell, you'll need to.01:52
LaserJockso I need to do that?01:52
FujitsuYEs.01:52
FujitsuOr it doesn't know which server to send requests to :)01:52
LaserJockok, I tried startx /usr/bin/startkde -- /usr/X11R6/bin/Xnest :201:53
LaserJockand that was a no go01:53
LaserJockso do I set DISPLAY=:2 before I run that?01:53
FujitsuYes.01:53
LaserJockhmm, nothing online says that01:55
FujitsuI don't think Xnest sets it itself...01:55
LaserJockbut at least now I'm getting .Xauthority errors01:55
FujitsuAh.01:55
FujitsuYes.01:55
FujitsuI know about that...01:55
FujitsuThere is a switch you need to pass to turn off access control...01:56
Fujitsuman Xnest should help.01:56
LaserJockheh, now that I'm no longer able to start any apps in my main window ....01:58
LaserJockphew, and with a gdm restart I'm back02:00
LaserJockI don't think the DISPLAY thing is a good idea02:00
FujitsuDid you export it or set it?02:01
FujitsuIf you exported it, that'd do it.02:01
FujitsuBecause it'll make all your X windows try to appear in the Xnest session.02:01
LaserJockyes02:02
LaserJockbut then I can use my main window02:02
LaserJockI just got it working02:02
LaserJockI guess I just needed to restart X or something02:02
LaserJockI used the same command as before02:03
FujitsuThankyou crimsun.02:05
LaserJockah, I think I maybe have been have a problem with x lock files not being cleaned up too02:08

Arbiteri don't know why things in previous debian/ directory aren't listed in .diff.gz10:12
HobbseeArbiter: would there be a debian/ in the upstream tarball, by any chance?10:13
ArbiterHobbsee: yes.. the comment explains why i deleted that dir10:13
Arbiteruhm... another thing...10:14
HobbseeArbiter: did you remove the debian/ from the original tarball, or the working directory?10:14
=== Hobbsee is grabbing it now
ArbiterHobbsee: working dir10:14
Arbiteri've noticed that running debuild -S -sa for the first time tells me something like10:15
HobbseeArbiter: right.  have you whinged at upstream yet?10:15
Arbiterwarning: ignoring deletion of 'blahblah'10:15
=== Hobbsee checks the packaging guide. Riddell has told me before just to delete the debian/ dir in the upstream tarball, and repackage it
Arbiterreally?10:17
Hobbseeand note it in the changelog afterwards10:17
Arbiterso i have to provide a modified .orig.tar.gz? :D10:17
Hobbseeyeah, cos otherwise it keeps thrashing your changes10:17

Arbiter...but?10:17
Hobbseebut sometimes such thigns have to be done10:18
Arbiterheheheh :)10:18
HobbseeArbiter: why dont you take out the debian dir, then get the md5sum of the repackaged tarball, and i'll check it here10:18
Hobbseesarah@sarah:~/Desktop$ md5sum *.tar.gz10:18

Hobbsee.....and then you'll have to make your changes again, it seems10:19
Hobbseei wonder if quick and dirty hacking of the dsc works...10:20
HobbseeArbiter: at this point, you should also be bitching at upstream about including a debian/ in their source10:20
Hobbseevery loudly :P10:20

Arbiter71560616e68c2616552a0eaf720cb935  kcmpureftpd_0.9.1.tar.gz10:21
RiddellI always remove upstream debian/ dirs before making the .orig10:21
Arbiteruhm...10:21
HobbseeRiddell: then why did we just get different md5sums?10:21
RiddellI don't know what's being compared10:22
HobbseeRiddell: we both just deleted the debian/ from the same tarball, then repackaged it10:23
Arbitermaybe it's compressed with a different gzip level...10:23
RiddellHobbsee: different timestamps10:23
Riddellthat's unavoidable10:23
HobbseeRiddell: ahhhh.....10:24
Hobbseeyes, right10:24
Arbiterthere are a lot of factors that makes md5sums different i think10:24
HobbseeRiddell: is it Very Bad (tm) to change the md5sum and size in the .dsc without doing anything else?10:24
Hobbseeor is that legal?10:24

hubwseb: I said "sort of"03:20
HobbseeYagisan: so you fixed it?03:21
YagisanHobbsee, nope. apparently its some perl issue. It's debian bug 33274803:22

YagisanStevenK, somehow I feel that either one of those will be bigger then the 6GB I have available03:29
StevenKYagisan: A local mirror will *easily* outstrip 6Gb03:29
wsebhub, in bug fixing you have to correct sort of code03:30
YagisanStevenK, how much are we talking about for say amd64+i386 ? ~40GB ?03:30
hubwseb: yes and no. it depends. packaging is mostly about installation problems, etc.03:31
StevenKYagisan: Um. Including source?03:31
hubwseb: fixing bugs in the code is fine too, but it is about prorotization03:31
wsebhub, like to adapt debian package on ubuntu ?03:31

AnAntHobbsee: ok, that library I am packaging, the dh_make created this in the install target : $(MAKE) install DESTDIR=$(CURDIR)/debian/tmp04:27

shawarmawhy do I always type genious, when I mena genius?10:22

shawarmaLaserJock: In my defense I have to say that I had been misled to believe that the bed'n'breakfast place I stayed at in Italy was equipped with some sort of computer for internet access.10:26
LaserJockah10:27
LaserJockexcuses, excuses :p10:27
shawarmaLaserJock: ...so of course I left my laptop at home. Well, it turns out that there WAS internet in the house. Wifi-style. And there I was without my laptop.10:27
crimsuneh? If I ever get to take a vacation, I'm definitely going to enjoy the break from the 'net.10:28
shawarmaLaserJock: The first day was ok. I was tired after travelling anyway, but during the next couple of days I noted 37 things I would have looked up somewhere on the internet if I could.10:28

lfittlhelp needed: in the following scenario (gnupg package, needs the scard group to support openpgp smartcards), the user creates the scard group for some reason on his own, how should postinst and postrm react? They would normally create/remove the group.10:34
shawarmaI used to do them in the office. The other guys pointed and laughed the first couple of days. Within a couple of weeks everyone was doing it.10:34
tsengshawarma: oh, i dont remember them10:35
crimsunlfittl: use a bail case10:35
shawarmatseng: workrave has three kinds of breaks. micro breaks, coffee breaks and something else breaks. During those something else breaks it shows some exercises you can do.10:36
tsenghttp://www.flickr.com/photos/tseng/223930877/10:37
lfittlcrimsun: a bail case? what do you mean?10:37
tsengi think this is a problem10:37
crimsunlfittl: e.g., in the postinst, make sure groupadd -f is used, then you'll probably want to touch some type of indicator file that denotes the group existed prior to postinst being executed. Then in the postinst, check for the existence of the indicator file before removing the group.10:37

lfittlcrimsun: hmm, I am searching for a solution that gets accepted into gnupg before FF. Do you think the patch would be accepted if a debconf key is used? (it sounds rather complicated to me)10:41
crimsunlfittl: upstream (Debian)? If so, you'll want to coordinate with elmo.10:42
lfittlcrimsun: first ubuntu, debian is the next step10:42
lfittls/next/following/10:42
azeemlfittl: what priority?10:43
crimsunpersonally I don't think the debconf key is _that_ bad10:43
lfittlcrimsun: I assume you mean I should still talk to elmo about it? :)10:43
lfittlazeem: you mean what priority that change has?10:43
crimsunsince he maintains the Debian package, it would be a good idea to at least get his opinion first10:43
azeemwhat debconf priority the question would have (unless I misunderstood)10:44
crimsunagain, I'd take elmo's opinion over mine in this regard, since he's more experienced with the package10:44
lfittlazeem: ah, there is no need for a question, it's just for internal purpose to preserve an existing group after package removal10:45
lfittlcrimsun: k, will try to get in contact with elmo, thanks for your help10:46

azeemtseng: maybe it is inversely coupled to Debian's NEW processing :)10:53
tsengits been some weeks10:53
crimsunlfittl: unless I misinterpreted you, your intent is to _not_ remove the group in postrm if the group existed prior to postinst being executed10:53
shawarmatseng: right, ok. I guess it's the archive team that does this, right?10:53

crimsunlfittl: IOW, "if it existed before [the sysadmin created it manually] , then don't touch the group"10:53

lfittlcrimsun: the group is only used for smartcard reader device file permissions, and the gnupg howto about that doesn't use a system group10:55
lfittlcrimsun: also, why would somebody remove the gnupg package?10:56
crimsunlfittl: something like delgroup --only-if-empty --system   might be appropriate10:56
lfittlcrimsun: hmm10:56
lfittlcrimsun: will create a patch with this solution, and wait for elmo's comment about it10:57
crimsunlfittl: our intent as packagers should be to not think "why wouldn't this happen" but "what should be done when it happens", since software engineering practices have demonstrated that if there's a possibility something can happen, it probably will :)10:57

bddebianTime to head home.  Later folks11:25
NoumaanIt seems like we can not do much progress on Urdu Translation until we have Urdu fonts available in repositories :(11:29
NoumaanI am trying to get in touch with some one to get thsi work done. So that I could create a Wiki Page and invite people to help us11:30
NoumaanUbuntu's language support for Urdu package has no font dependency. By default Ubuntu comes with no decent font to view, create or modify Urdu documents. The most popular Urdu Font http://www.crulp.org/nafeesWebNaskh.html is available for grab how could we get it in the Ubuntu Desktop?11:30
NoumaanSome one should atleast add this font in Universe so that I could tell people to apt-get it11:31
crimsunare the packages on revu?11:31
Noumaancrimsun:  what is revu?11:31
crimsunsee the topic11:32
crimsununless you've submitted the source packages through revu, there's not much that can be done11:32
NoumaanI am not the owner or the creator of the font. but it is freely available at the above mentioned page with a license that allows us to use, modify and redistribute the font11:33
crimsunso why don't you package the font(s) and submit the source package(s) to revu?11:34
Noumaanhow do I do that?11:34
crimsundo what?11:34
Noumaanpackage the font and submit the source package?11:34
crimsunpackage the font(s)? Following the packaging guide and examples from other ttf-* font packages. See the URL in the topic for submitting to REVU.11:35
Noumaanok I was working on the wiki page but I guess I will have to first get the font added :(11:35
