But I can't just click on a video and play it, totem just shows a black screen.(the audio works fine on all players) [12:39] Are there any bugs relating to this for edgy?

I don't know exactly what the problem is. [12:39] what does xvinfo say? [12:39] I did apt-get build-dep libxv1; apt-get source libxv1; and I recompiled it from orig, but still doesn't work.

[09:04] good morning [09:04] pitti: can apport back into bug-buddy by default? It seems insane to me to maintain a seperate UI [09:04] pitti: ah. that bug that I asked about yesterday was bugbuddy then. :) [09:04] Burgundavia: how do you mean? [09:05] Burgundavia: in the long term we want apport only, but for that we need the possibility to produce good backtraces (to win something over b-b) and easy upstream bug forwarding [09:06] pitti: it me, carrying deltas from upstream is a little nuts, unless the work justifies it. Would it not be easier to modify bug-buddy and thus have less code of our own laying around? [09:06] as an aside, a ubuntu-dbg thing could be nice. I've had three things crash on me this week and I have no decent data to send back [09:06] er, maybe more an ubuntu-desktop-dbg [09:08] it seems that every distro builds it delta with upstream slowly, without a concerted effort to truly reduce it === ..[topic/#ubuntu-devel:Mithrandir] : Ubuntu Development (not support, even with edgy) | #ubuntu for support and general discussion | #ubuntu-motu for getting involved in development | http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DeveloperResources | See #ubuntu-bugs for http://wiki.ubuntu.com/HelpingWithBugs | 6.06.1 released | Main frozen for knot 3 === Burgundavia wanders off on his "each in their own silo" rant again [09:11] Burgundavia: (re /EdgyEft/Knot3): thanks; I didn't know it was a -marketing thing now; nobody told me. :-) [09:12] Mithrandir: no worries.

[09:44] Burgundavia: oh, no concrete plans so far, but I guess we'll need PolicyKit anyway for gnome-system-tools [09:44] Burgundavia: so, I'll take a look at it [09:44] right [09:44] pitti: ok, just wondering [09:44] right now the g-s-t implementation is less than ideal === glatzor [n=sebi@ppp-82-135-82-91.dynamic.mnet-online.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel [09:55] Hobbsee: yes? === pvanhoof [n=pvanhoof@mailhost.newtec.be] has joined #ubuntu-devel [09:56] Kamion: why are you requiring people from ubuntu-dev to approve sync requests, when the package was last synced from unstable anyway? [09:56] Kamion: ie, there are no ubuntu changes, due to the version number? [09:56] Hobbsee: syncs aren't always harmless - I'd like somebody to check for major compatibility problems, etc. [09:56] even if there are no Ubuntu changes to discard [09:56] oh, and i'm seeing why you're requiring lists of changes - i've seen some very crazy stuff try to be put through. [09:56] Kamion: right, okay [09:57] Hobbsee: sometimes I do the check myself and don't bother asking, if it's trivial and I'm not too overworked === Hobbsee dies.

[11:47] ? [11:47] carlos: is there any chance of searching for a particular msgid in Rosetta? [11:47] carlos: gnome-applets has 985 strings, and I just need to fix one particular string [11:47] Mithrandir: I thought you were coordinating the "freeze" of packages for Knot 3? [11:48] fschoep: yes, but a "where" question doesn't make any kind of sense. [11:48] Mithrandir: I meant to ask what the current status was - "where it's at" [11:49] Mithrandir: sorry for the confusion [11:49] pitti: not yet, we are going to implement such feature [11:49] pitti: danilos will work on it [11:49] fschoep: we're frozen and I at least am testing the live images. You're welcome to help out. [11:49] carlos: or any way to display more than 10 strings? [11:49] Riddell: you might want to start testing the kubuntu desktop images. [11:49] ogra: you might want to start testing too [11:50] pitti: change batch=SIZE_YOU_WANT [11:50] Mithrandir: OK, I see - testing like in downloading and running the CD? [11:50] pitti: but I should warn you that if you put there an high number, launchpad/rosetta will give you a timeout [11:50] fschoep: yes. [11:50] I can do that [11:50] The link is probably somewhere obvious, right?

[11:54] carlos: you mean fixing the .po and uploading it? [11:54] you can find the msgid that way and later, yes, you can upload it fixed [11:55] is the easier workaround for that use case until the search feature is implemented === Fujitsu [n=Fujitsu@ubuntu/member/fujitsu] has joined #ubuntu-devel [12:00] Mithrandir, later this evening, i have to help with a move and need to prepare stuff for my travel ...

Note that we need a new alternate cd first, so just live for now. [12:04] Kamion: how's the d-i bugfix coming along? [12:06] dholbach: gnome-settings-daemon fails to start on the live cd because of a timeout. I've discussed this before with Seb and I think we need to increase the timeout.

[12:15] Mithrandir: ok, I understand the problem, working on it [12:15] dholbach: actually, the problem is probably that gnome uses dbus to activate g-s-d and dbus takes too long. [12:17] carlos: you pinged? [12:17] Riddell: hi, yes [12:17] Riddell: https://launchpad.net/bugs/60049 [12:17] Malone bug 60049 in kde-i18n "Import of translations for KDE's desktop-* failed" [Untriaged,Unconfirmed] [12:18] Riddell: seems like upstream doesn't include the .po files with the .desktop translations because they release the .desktop files including such translations [12:19] Riddell: so Rosetta has 0 translations for them while upstream has most of them full translated. [12:20] hmm, tricky part is how to include the desktop-*.po files in an upload [12:22] Riddell: either as new packages or merging two tarballs.... [12:23] Riddell: would that be too difficult? [12:23] noting the version as the snapshot date [12:23] carlos: not too difficult, I just have to think of the best way to do it [12:23] Riddell: ok [12:23] thanks [12:24] carlos: it'll be after knot 3 anyway [12:28] knot 3 ?

[12:46] Riddell: if he's happy with them, I'm ok with them too.

[01:02] Kamion: sounds sane. [01:02] Kamion: (cleared for upload) [01:02] I haven't had time to test it yet, so if you want to review the code, feel free [01:02] the diff is in your branch?

[03:40] memcpy(part + i * width, start + i * pixmap->width, width); [03:41] surely that needs to take into account that the data is longer if bytesperpixel != 1 [03:41] compare __svgalib_driver16_getbox which does: [03:41] __memcpy(bp, vp, w * 2); [03:41] hmmmm === Seveas reads more svgalib docs [03:42] see also vga_putbox(3) [03:42] Pixmaps are in row-major order. The source pixmap memory has the size w * h * BYTESPERPIXEL.

[03:42] { 1152, 864, 39 }, [03:42] Kamion: ubuntu-meta> ok, nothing big I hope? [03:42] It's got a hard-coded list of modes it'll set, all of which are 256 colours [03:42] { 1600, 1200, 45 }, [03:42] those two are 2 bytes per pixel [03:42] Oh, are they? [03:43] Sounds like my error [03:43] Sorry about that [03:43] Riddell: feel free; it just touches Kubuntu so I'm fine with you just doing it yourself. [03:43] Mithrandir: thanks [03:43] sivang, poke? :) [03:43] er, unless I'm miscounting, one moment [03:43] Mithrandir: is that the rationale of "if we kill our own cd's, it's our fault?" [03:43] Kamion: Hm. 45 is a 256 colour format. [03:43] Hobbsee: "if you break the kubuntu cds, you get to keep both halves", yes. [03:44] So is 39 [03:44] (see /usr/include/vga.h) [03:44] Mithrandir: hehe. right [03:44] mjg59: oh, sorry, I just can't count evidently [03:44] yes, you're right. I could have sworn I'd double-checked that [03:44] Ok, that makes me feel better :) [03:44] That was a deliberate decision - vesa slows down once you get above 256 colours [03:44] yeah [03:45] I do think this is where the error is in the bogl backend, though [03:45] Right, the mode that OF gives you may well not be single byte per pixel [03:45] the pcfb and tcfb backends are both int-per-pixel, I think [03:45] Having thought about it, it may well be necessary to include the bogl backend in the x86 version anyway [03:46] Otherwise people using framebuffers lose [03:46] in fact I think all of them are int-per-pixel [03:46] Since we forcibly switch back to VGA text mode in the svgalib backend [03:46] Mithrandir: adding usplash-theme-ubuntu [03:47] Kamion: sounds trivial enough, so please do just go ahead [03:47] mjg59: transitions in current startup are a bit rough [03:48] done [03:49] mjg59: do you have an usplash that works on amd64 (or a plan on how to fix it) yet? [03:49] Mithrandir: It works on amd64. It doesn't work on nvidia hardware on amd64. [03:50] It's actually an x86emu backend issue rather than an amd64 one [03:50] jdub: We need to forcibly set the screen back to text mode, otherwise X get horribly confused when you switch back to console VTs [03:51] Given current X, I'm afraid that's unavoidable [03:51] Mithrandir: I'm at something of a loss as to what the problem is. Any help there greatly appreciated. [03:52] mjg59: hmm. Do you have a useful point to start debugging? [03:52] Mithrandir: Nope.

Is it in a state for *possibly* implementing RapidReboot for edgy+1. If so, I would like to work with Keybuk on it and integrating it into upstart [05:08] Howdy folks [05:08] easily discoverable and non-invasive [05:08] bluefoxicy: Icons changing is against the HIG though [05:08] ah, true.

I thought the tech board meetings or dev team meetings focused on this stuff some time nearing the release of Edgy [05:26] bluefoxicy: the spec for a cycle is planned at the start of the one before it since the transition happens in the weeks after release, before the conference. So it needs to be discussed earlier [05:27] janimo: ah. That means what, in english? [05:27] bluefoxicy: I read that myself after sending and asked the same question :) [05:27] haha [05:28] the toolchain specification ofr a release happens one cycle earlier, as the transition from one toolchain to another can be thought of as part of the previous cycle. [05:28] yes but when is it frozen === bluefoxicy is going to have to crash the next developer's meeting at this rate [05:28] <-- not a dev [05:28] as soon as edgy opens (well one or two weeks after) the new toolchain needs to be uploaded os it can be tested as much as possible [05:29] so it is discused months ahead, along with the specs affecting the just released version [05:29] so the edgy+1 toolchain has been in testing since June? o_O [05:29] bluefoxicy: not in testing (I don;t know for sure) but settled on AFAIK === pygi [n=pygi@89-172-230-244.adsl.net.t-com.hr] has joined #ubuntu-devel [05:29] planned is al [05:29] all [05:30] but there are people who know for sure (doko, jbailey) [05:30] I noticed a while back that --hash-style wasn't on the spec so stuck it in :o [05:30] was that a bad idea? [05:30] (it's in the newer binutils since around June-July) === tortoise_ [n=tortoise@194.164.140.64] has joined #ubuntu-devel [05:31] I don;t know so I'll shut up instead of possibly misguiding you [05:31] tseng: who do I have to blow to find out what the buildd looks like? I've had 5 different people tell me 5 different things about -Wl,-O1 [05:32] bluefoxicy: infinity is the authority [05:32] either Keybuk or Kamion said that it's only applied to GNOME packages, someone else said it was applied globally in LD_FLAGS, no one seems to really have solid documentation === Tonio_ [n=tonio@179.8.100-84.rev.gaoland.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [05:32] Kamion: ah, then I'll stop bugging every random person :) [05:33] bluefoxicy: the buildd is not doing *anything* special to toolchain options [05:33] bluefoxicy: the only thing that's happening is that some packages apply options in their own build scripts. You can look for those yourself. [05:33] bluefoxicy: most gnome packages use it, right... but it's done per-package in debian/rules [05:33] feel free to confirm that with infinity if you like [05:33] Kamion: yeah, I saw it was in some gnome debian/rules [05:34] bluefoxicy: with regard to editing specifications, please refrain from editing specifications that are already approved except to add comments in a separate section at the bottom [05:34] Kamion, slomo: There's some things worth doing globally, like --hash-style=both (approximately 50% speedup for dynamic linking, apps load faster) [05:34] bluefoxicy: anything we want to do globally should be in the gcc specs file; it shouldn't be done at the buildd level [05:35] you need to talk to the toolchain maintainers about that [05:35] nods. [05:35] that would be doko/infinity/who else? [05:36] primarily doko [05:36] (meanwhile I'll move the stuff I put on the spec down into the comments) [05:36] ah.. his schedule was what? [05:36] is he gonna be here when i get back from school in about 4 hours? [05:37] I have no idea. You know where your mail client is :) [05:37] nobody I e-mail here ever mails me back :) [05:37] well, mdz does === hunger [n=tobias@pd95b0676.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel [05:38] bluefoxicy: they get lots of e-mails... it's indeed hard to get ahold of them :) [05:38] jdong: easier to pester them on IRC ;) [05:38] bluefoxicy: exactly :) [05:39] grah. I can only see the immediate prior revision on the wiki! === Tonio_ [n=tonio@179.8.100-84.rev.gaoland.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [05:41] dholbach: is 52405 actually fixed? === Tonio_ [n=tonio@179.8.100-84.rev.gaoland.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [05:44] How do i [05:44] How do I work around the upstart problem with cryptdisks again? [05:45] The last upgrade has again broken my boot process:-( [05:45] hunger: doesn't look like keybuk's around :-/ [05:47] mdz: I just deinstalled menu and menu-xdg and restarted - it's fine for me -- do you still have the problem? === cr3 [n=marc@pdpc/supporter/bronze/cr3] has joined #ubuntu-devel [05:51] <_ion> hunger: Add the line "console owner" to /etc/event.d/rcS === Tonio_ [n=tonio@179.8.100-84.rev.gaoland.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel === ivoks [n=ivoks@ubuntu/member/ivoks] has joined #ubuntu-devel === j_ack [n=rudi@p508D88C0.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel === Harti [n=Harti@unaffiliated/harti] has joined #ubuntu-devel === Harti [n=Harti@unaffiliated/harti] has joined #ubuntu-devel === pitti [n=pitti@ubuntu/member/pitti] has joined #ubuntu-devel === tkamppeter [i=till@nat/mandriva/x-2b399b8729e5999d] has joined #ubuntu-devel === FliesLikeALap [n=Ryan@recurve-09.dynamic2.rpi.edu] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:01] pitti, I have problems with the build of GutenPrint 5.0.0 final [06:03] dholbach: how is that a fix ? it's a workaround, there are many described === jdong [n=jdong@d192-24-235-141.try.wideopenwest.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:04] xav: I had menu installed previously as a workaround, now I *de*installed it again, restarted my session [06:04] xav: and I tested a live cd today which didn't expose the problem either [06:05] dholbach: oh ok then but [06:05] but? [06:05] dholbach: it's the package who got fixed, or the real bug ? [06:05] To be honest, I'm not quite sure which fix finally solved the problem. [06:05] tkamppeter: is there a preferred way of storing default printer? ~/.cups/lpoptions vs /etc/cups/printers.conf [06:05] xav: do you still have the problem? [06:05] dholbach: problem with the packages is that there were a broken symlink [06:06] that I know [06:06] dholbach: I've no clue, I'm on edgy but didn't reinstall gnome [06:06] tkamppeter: I see gnome-cups-manager uses the first the RH config UI the second [06:06] dholbach: is it still there? [06:06] xav: I didn't reinstall it either? === doko [n=doko@noisy.itso-berlin.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:06] tkamppeter: hi! (I just replied to your mail) [06:07] xav: I don't face the problem on any of my machines [06:07] dholbach: I am subscribed to the bugs and saw someone mark it Fix released and claim it fixed, but I think it very much still exists [06:07] mdz: oh? [06:07] /etc/cups/printers.conf can only mark locally defined printers as default, whereas /etc/cups/lpoptions can also mark broadcasted printers from other machines as default. [06:07] dholbach: as always, it only happens if there's a broken symlink, but we either need to fix the broken symlink (as a workaround) or fix the bug [06:08] ~/.cups/lpoptions is like /etc/cups/lpoptions, but a for personal settings of the user. [06:08] ok, I'll try to reproduce it... [06:08] so the broken symlink is still there? [06:08] tkamppeter: ok, so far that's clear [06:08] janimo, printerdrake uses both. [06:08] tkamppeter: so the latter is preferred then? Since both are used by CUPS is one of them supposed to obsolete the other or both can be used? [06:08] how did an upgrade manage to fix it? [06:09] tkamppeter: I believe we use ~/.lpoptions by default (gnome-cups-mgr does that) [06:09] tkamppeter: back in 15 minutes, I'm grabbing a bite [06:09] mdz: so you still have the problem on an up-to-date edgy? [06:09] tkamppeter: what cat printers.conf do that cannot be done in lpoptions then? [06:09] s/cat/can/ === mbiebl [n=michael@dslb-084-056-250-095.pools.arcor-ip.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:10] dholbach: I did the last time I looked, and I have no reason to believe it's been fixed. do you? === Nafallo [n=nafallo@ubuntu/member/nafallo] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:10] tkamppeter: need a help? [06:11] Note that ~/.lpoptions or ~/cups/.lpoptions is personal to the user. A printer setup tool which sets up system-wide print queues should also set up a system-wide default printer. [06:11] tkamppeter: ~/.cups/lpoptions :) [06:12] dholbach: sorry, I may be a little slow but I still don't understand. do you have this file : /etc/xdg/menus/debian-menu.menu and is it a broken symlink? [06:12] tkamppeter: I understand the user vs systemwide difference. BUt I wonder what is the diff between /etc/cups/lpoptions and /etc/cups/printers wrt default system wide printer setting [06:12] Note also that a default printer set in /etc/cups/lpoptions in a CUPS 1.1.x environment is not propagated into the network. With a CUPS 1.2.x network it is possible that it gets propagated, but I am not absolutely sure. [06:13] mdz, xav: I just made /etc/xdg/menus/debian-menu.menu a broken symlink and after restarting the panel behaves fine [06:13] So the advantage of /etc/cups/printers is that the default printer setting gets for sure propagated into the network. At least to clients which do not have their own default printer setting. === ogra [n=ogra@ubuntu/member/ogra] has joined #ubuntu-devel === pygi [n=pygi@89-172-230-244.adsl.net.t-com.hr] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:14] dholbach: er [06:14] dholbach: I fixed it ;-) [06:14] printers.conf and lpoptions are different [06:14] mdz: YOU ROCK! How? :-) [06:14] dholbach: /usr/share/doc/menu-xdg/changelog.gz [06:15] dholbach: I implemented the workaround I was just talking about, but I forgot about it [06:15] lol === dholbach hugs mdz [06:15] printers.conf is configured by the lpadmin command by an admin and is always system-wide. It has no personal counterpart. [06:15] :-) [06:16] It defines print queues and the queue's properties. One queue can be marked as the default. [06:16] dholbach: I forgot to update the bug with that information; I've done so now [06:17] The actually available queues can come from printers.conf, from classes.conf (printer classes, queues clustered together), or can be picked up from external CUPS server's broadcasts [06:17] mdz: I don't have that version of the package installed [06:17] tkamppeter: so the default server can be set in both places with slightly different goals? [06:18] default printer I mean [06:18] In printers.conf OR classes.conf NO or ONE local queue can be set as default queue. [06:18] mdz: and I just installed a broken symlink for gnome-panel/gnome-menus/gamin/whatever to stumble over ... so I'm a bit unsure [06:19] lpoptions is configured by the lpoptions command, if root runs the lpoptions command, /etc/cups/lpoptions is modified, if a normal user runs the lopoptions command, the file ~/.cups/lpoptions is modified. [06:19] janimo, the default printer, not the default server. === jsgotangco [n=jsg123@ubuntu/member/jsgotangco] has joined #ubuntu-devel === jamadagni [n=jamadagn@59.92.81.21] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:21] hello is mithrandir here/ === lukketto [n=lukketto@host179-132.pool8257.interbusiness.it] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:22] tkamppeter: Still, which has priority, lpoptions or printers.conf as both can be set systen wide and contain a default printer [06:22] To get the best transparence for an admin using a printer setup tool I recommend that the tool sets the default printer in BOTH printers.conf/classes.conf (sudo lpadmin -d ) AND /etc/cups/lpoptions (sudo lpoptions -d ). If you set the default CUPS printer with "sudo foomatic-configure", it is done so. [06:23] tkamppeter: but why are ther two places for the same setting? [06:23] if printers.conf/classes.conf and lpoptions has different default printers, lpoptions has priority. [06:23] tkamppeter: ah,ok. thanks [06:23] tkamppeter: hm? [06:23] If a user has a personal lpoptions, this overrides any system-wide default. [06:23] tkamppeter: i had default in lpoptions and in printers.conf [06:23] tkamppeter: I'm back now, btw; how can I help you with gutenprint? [06:23] tkamppeter: but default was from printers.conf [06:24] tkamppeter: btw, you didn't get my /msg? [06:24] tkamppeter: I knew it overrides lpoption from system wide but was not sure of printers,coinf as it's a separate file format and option === tortoise_ [n=tortoise@194.164.140.64] has joined #ubuntu-devel === nags [n=nags@125.22.101.57] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:25] pitti, I have now the Debian package, where all dpatches are flattened out into the general diff.gz file. So all info about their changes is definitely lost and a private secret of Roger Leigh (and I thought we work with free software) [06:25] tkamppeter: right, that's what I answered in my mail [06:25] tkamppeter: the short form: we don't need to care [06:26] But anyway, I can still re-add the Ubuntu patches with dpatch. [06:26] tkamppeter: that would be appreciated, it makes merges a lot easier [06:26] I would at first make sure that dpatch.mk is in debian/rules, re-adding it if needed. [06:26] tkamppeter: do we actually have relevant changes that still apply to 5.0-2? [06:26] tkamppeter: right [06:27] tkamppeter: ideally we could send the remaining diff to Debian and sync in the future [06:27] tkamppeter: until then dpatch should do fine [06:27] Then I have seen that the Debian package still has the "model" hard-coded into the PPD path. [06:27] tkamppeter: btw, we don't patch files in debian/ (they are modified directly) [06:28] So the build system still needs to be patched that we can add out /usr/share/ppd (and all other future standard paths of LSB 3.2). [06:29] Note that the debian diff.gz file does not only contains hunks in debian/ but 30 or 40 files also outside the debian, it seems that it is parts of our 10-.... patch mixed with other patches. [06:29] tkamppeter: yeah [06:30] tkamppeter: I wonder why Debian didn't adopt the /usr/share/ppd policy yet [06:30] tkamppeter: it was discussed months ago and we implemented it pretty quickly [06:31] So I have loaded the Debian source with dpkg-source -x and then I have manually edited only the configure.ac file accordint to our 10-... patch. I did not modify anything else. [06:32] Then I typed autoreconf and it complained about missing m4local directory, mkdir'ed that and again autoreconf. then this: [06:32] tkamppeter: if Debian already modified configure.ac in the diff.gz and called autoreconf (with those changes being inline as well), then it might be better to just do the same in Ubuntu and documetn it in the changelog [06:32] tkamppeter: otherwise we would have two big patches, which doesn't make sense [06:33] mdz: FYI, kwwii is now sorted for using usplash on his system [06:33] aclocal: configure.ac: 382: macro `AM_PATH_GTK' not found in library [06:34] aclocal: configure.ac: 739: macro `AM_PATH_GTK' not found in library [06:34] aclocal: configure.ac: 743: macro `AM_PATH_GTK' not found in library [06:34] aclocal: configure.ac: 743: macro `AM_PATH_GLIB' not found in library [06:34] autoreconf: aclocal failed with exit status: 1 [06:34] tkamppeter: maybe dholbach can help you with that [06:34] But for this autoreconf has to run anyway, and I do not get it working. [06:34] tkamppeter: I'd assume you are missing some gtk-dev package [06:35] Kamion: can you take python-cups out of NEW or is it Keybuk's day? [06:35] tkamppeter: which package did you try to autoreconf? gnome-cups-manager? [06:35] janimo: it's Keybuk's day, but I haven't seen him ... [06:35] janimo: is it destined for main? [06:35] dholbach: gutenprint [06:35] ok === dholbach looks [06:35] The error messages seem to be caused by missing libgtk1.3-dev, but I cannot install it as apt-get tells me it conflicts with libgtk2-dev [06:36] argh, 1.3? [06:36] *shudder* [06:36] Kamion: it may be, I'd like to get it tested by some more people first though [06:36] libgtk1.3 was the development tree for libgtk2 [06:36] and libgtk2-dev is also needed for this autoreconf [06:36] If anything depend son it, it's broken [06:36] tkamppeter: sudo apt-get build-dep gutenprint should have all you need === dholbach downloads and tries as well [06:36] I am fighting with gutenprint [06:37] dholbach, I have done this, and for autoreconf I had even to install more packages === roico [n=roico@bzq-88-154-231-32.red.bezeqint.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:37] So do I need another libgtk1-dev? [06:38] umm... [06:38] janimo: python-cups doesn't seem to follow the new python policy; it should be using one of python-central or python-support, surely [06:38] didn't we disable gtk1 in our packages? [06:39] ivoks: we must have, since gtk1 is in universe [06:39] tkamppeter: no, that would be wrong [06:39] ivoks, seems so, as apt-get does not find a package named libgtk1-dev [06:39] pitti: debian/rules, debian/control.in: Drop libgtk1.2-dev build dependency [06:39] Kamion: when I uploaded it I asked doko and he said it was not mandatory. Since then pyton 2.5 got in so this may have changed [06:39] Universe is activated in my /etc/apt/sources.list === shenki [n=Joel@ppp111-57.lns4.adl4.internode.on.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:39] I guess I'll use one of those two options in the next upload then [06:39] tkamppeter: no main package can depend on universe package [06:39] janimo: not mandatory to use python-{central,support}, or not mandatory to follow the new python policy? [06:40] tkamppeter: you might try libgtk1.2-dev [06:40] Kamion: to use the two [06:40] oops, gtk1.2 is still in main [06:40] we couldn't throw it out, as it seems [06:40] so, I lied, sorry [06:41] janimo: I guess it is possible to comply with the new python policy and not use python-{central,support}, but you'd need to use a number of workarounds, which you don't seem to be doing [06:41] all gutenprint binary packages do not depend on GTK1, nor the build process, but as Gutenprint has legacy support for GTK1, autoreconf for gutenprint needs GTK1. [06:41] Kamion: as for policy with only python-2.4 as the supported version it looked ok. It may not be ok now with pyversions -s saying both 2.4 and 2,5 [06:41] I need ottest [06:41] janimo: from our perspective as archive admins, following the new python policy is definitely mandatory [06:41] janimo: yes, please; I'll reject it for now [06:41] the point of the new policy is to gracefully handle the move to python2.5 and later [06:42] we changed rules to not build against gtk1 [06:42] Installing libgtk1.2-dev ... [06:42] no... [06:42] :) [06:42] janimo: http://wiki.debian.org/DebianPython/NewPolicy describes how to do it [06:42] ivoks: you seem to need to have libgtk1.2-dev installed to autoreconf -i [06:43] At least I get to another error now ...

[06:47] plain source? [06:47] Here are my autoreconf errors: [06:47] http://www.freestandards.org/~till/tmp/ubuntu/edge/gutenprint/autoreconf1.log [06:47] ivoks: it seems that tkamppeter needs to run autoreconf -i for a patch of his to apply [06:48] (if I didn't get the situation wrong= [06:48] (couse i can build debian package without libgtk1.2-dev) [06:48] ok === geser [n=michael@dialin110233.justdsl.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:50] dholbach, autogen.sh runs also for me, it even runs configure afterwards, but try make after that. This fails for me. [06:50] urg [06:50] tkamppeter: any chance to fix the PPD path without messing with autobreak tools? [06:50] I wonder how upstream rolled their release tarball then [06:51] tkamppeter: a two-line patch in one file seems easier to handle than touching all the auto stuff [06:51] pitti, that is probably the only solution. Perhaps I should try things which I often did in Mandriva packaging, like [06:51] tkamppeter: alternatively, if you just fix a path in configure.ac, just do the same change in configure [06:51] and don't bother with autoreconf === raphink [n=raphink@ubuntu/member/raphink] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:52] perl -p -i -e 's:/usr/share/cups/model:/usr/share/ppd:g' * */* */*/* [06:52] or similar [06:52] tkamppeter: yeah, that's what I mean :) [06:52] tkamppeter: find -name '*.c' -o -name '*.h' | xargs sed -i 's/oldpath/newpath/g' or so [06:53] and then check the diff [06:53] Perhaps it is enough to apply the perl command only to the configure script [06:53] find has an -exec :) [06:53] ivoks: too clumsy for my taste, and xargs is more efficient in the general case :) [06:53] [06:54] well, pitti fwiw, i wouldn't use sed, but vim -c :))) [06:54] Perhaps I run the perl or whatever out of debian/rules and so I can avoid a patch [06:54] tkamppeter: oh, please don't [06:54] tkamppeter: if you do that, then you cannot build the source package after buliding the binary package any more [06:54] tkamppeter: rather do it statically, that's more robust [06:54] So I better run the perl in my shell to generate a patch? [06:54] tkamppeter: but putting the command in the changelog would be helpful [06:55] tkamppeter: yes, as long as it's not too big (I doubt that it is big), doing the modifications in a dpatch is better [06:55] Yes, this is a good idea. [06:55] dholbach: maybe it's not so easy to reproduce [06:55] tkamppeter: it would surprise me if the path was hardcoded in more than handful of places [06:55] mdz: I'll try on other boxes [06:55] In my Mandriva RPMs I tried to avoid patches as much as possible. They contain a lot of perl magic [06:56] tkamppeter: btw, /msg still doesn't work for you? [06:56] well, so long guys, i have exam tomorrow :/ [06:56] ivoks: /me crossing fingers, good luck! [06:56] thanks [06:56] tkamppeter: ./autogen.sh && autoreconf && make builds it (not sure what your changes are, though) [06:59] autoreconf after autogen.sh fails for me, a "make" after that re-runs configure and fails then. [06:59] pitti, what do you mean with /msg [06:59] tkamppeter: private conversation [06:59] tkamppeter: try '/msg pitti ping' [07:00] pitti, I have seen that you have opened a private coversation now.

[07:20] but it's static and initialised [07:20] Yes [07:20] What if you make it non-static? [07:20] I'm wondering if there's something very weird about static objects and atexit() [07:21] Could be [07:21] except this isn't even called from atexit(), so it's not that [07:22] no, that doesn't help [07:23] the reason I'm looking at this is that I'm working on a change to properly test the framebuffer mode before applying it, as you're supposed to [07:23] this pretty much necessitates saving the whole fb_var somewhere [07:23] and the fb_var is getting corrupted somewhere in the middle of proceedings, so I'm trying to figure out why === zyga [n=zyga@ubuntu/member/zyga] has joined #ubuntu-devel [07:23] hey [07:24] mvo: ping, how is progress? [07:24] Kamion: Bear in mind that not all framebuffers will support modesetting [07:25] Kamion: If they don't, that shouldn't be a failure - we should just return the size that we do get back === o_cee [n=oscar@c83-249-74-48.bredband.comhem.se] has joined #ubuntu-devel === zyga praises recent update that stopped X crashes :) [07:26] mjg59: hmm, ok; shouldn't their FB_ACTIVATE_TEST mode then tweak the mode you supply to the closest thing it can manage? [07:26] Kamion: I'm not sure [07:26] (perhaps the current mode) [07:26] Kamion: But at some stage we need to feed the resolution back to usplash, and it needs to be the resolution we ended up getting rather than the one it requested [07:27] mjg59: right. the change I'm working on is getting much closer to that [07:27] although it isn't all the way there yet [07:27] Kamion: I've been waiting for your d-i and ubiquity fixes to get into the archive, so I haven't built livefs-es or anything. Is everything you want in in now? [07:27] doing FB_ACTIVATE_TEST intrinsically involves accepting possibly a slightly different mode than the one you asked for [07:28] Mithrandir: yes, should be [07:28] oh my. xgl with cgwd is just.. wonderfully beautiful..

[07:51] zyga: I meant only the i386 db [07:52] yeah, but why? [07:52] the -universe databases are ~4Mb each [07:52] so for a full upload it would be a 12mb source package. its not that bad, but it is not really needed either IMO [07:53] so we'll assume that any-arch == i386? [07:53] ah, the data needs to be in the source package [07:53] how about taking the raw scan.log [07:53] bzipping it away and making the build process do the rest? [07:53] will that be smaller? [07:53] and build the database on compile time? yeah, that should work [07:54] mvo: how big is scan log? [07:54] yeah, that sounds like the right solution [07:54] the logfile is immense, the scan.data is ~5,5mb === kent [n=kent@82.145.136.38] has joined #ubuntu-devel [07:55] right [07:55] zyga: scan.log: 220MB(!) [07:55] the log file is irrelevant for the source package :) [07:55] I know :) [07:55] but uploading scan.data.bz2 will make it a good source package and a small one as well :) === shaya [n=spotter@dyn-160-39-252-178.dyn.columbia.edu] has joined #ubuntu-devel [07:55] mvo: I'll grep my scan log at home :) [07:56] does any suffer from a bug w/ "Loading Hardware Drivers...." where it just hangs?

Was thinking of an rsync script. Any advice? === seanh [i=seanh@ukato.freeshell.ORG] has joined #ubuntu-devel [09:21] seanh, are users allowed to save files? [09:21] Well.... users can save files to the homedir to work on them, yes, but they shouldn't assume the files will be there when they come back next time [09:22] how do they login? [09:22] There is one 'public' user account that is shared by all visitors [09:22] that account is set to automatically login [09:22] it uses the Desktop user profile === tortoise_ [n=tortoise@194.164.140.64] has joined #ubuntu-devel [09:22] here is what I would do: create a sabayon profile, link the user to it [09:22] I'm using Sabayon and Pessulus to prevent users from changing some things [09:23] upon logout, wipe out the user, including their home dir, recreate on login [09:24] What do you mean wipe out the user? Simply delete their homedir, or do I have to remove the username from the system somehow? [09:24] no, you can just wipe the idr [09:24] right [09:24] and with PAM recreate [09:24] And sabayon will recreate the homedir on each login? [09:24] PAM will [09:24] PAM? [09:25] ivoks, hmm, PAM, not thought of that [09:25] seanh: Plugable Authentication Module [09:25] seanh: you use it every time you login [09:25] seanh: it has a modul which can create user's home dir upon user login [09:25] pam_mkhomedir [09:26] seanh: very handy in LDAP installations, but would also work great in your situation [09:26] Kamion: right [09:26] ivoks, for edgy+1, we would create a profile, etc, for this, so people can just install it [09:26] Burgwork: that would be fairly easy [09:27] Burgwork: but that should be part of the bigger master plan; ubuntu-caffe :) [09:27] indeed [09:27] How do I run a script on logout anyway? [09:27] currently all the "session-clearing" kiosk cds use livecd, which suck [09:27] seanh: i have an idea [09:28] ups... better not via skel :) [09:28] Okay folks, I just had an update go bad and need to leave X right now, sorry.

[09:51] Burgwork: bear in mind that applications distributed on the system might be GPLed [09:51] such as gdm? [09:51] for example su contains GPLed code [09:52] yes, gdm is GPLed [09:52] ok, licensing official sucks [09:52] ... if you're trying to produce closed-source software, sure [09:53] ;-) [09:53] hey, I don't produce it, I just sell it [09:53] then you are evil man :) [09:55] I want to see if my company misstepped, as we have one of those closed-source PAM modules [09:55] mjg59: are you available for TB?

If you're distributing a system that contains gdm (or another GPLed program linked to PAM) plus your proprietary module as a work as a whole, then you're violating the gdm licence; but if you're just distributing the module on its own and letting users decide what to do with it, you're probably OK [09:57] IANAL, etc. Consult a lawyer if you're unsure.
