micahcowanThe post install also seems to do a series of chmods on score files that go in /var/games.12:09
LaserJockit looks to me like gnome-games doesn't do any chmoding on files in /usr/share/12:15
LaserJockwhich is what dh_fixperms will change12:15
micahcowanThis is true: it chmods /usr/games and /var/games files.12:15
micahcowanstill, note the /methods/ it uses for permissions: both an explicit rule, and in postinstall.12:16
LaserJockyeah12:16
micahcowanI can't really think of a more elegant way to do that: debhelper isn't actually meant to handle every situation, just the common ones, right? So I don't get whta's wrong with simply supplementing its behavior with more explicit commands... do you think chmod in rules might fly?12:17
LaserJockwell, I know it is used12:17
micahcowan^_^12:17
LaserJockI'm just a little concern about *where* I'm putting it12:17
LaserJockI've seen it in the install: rule12:17
micahcowanIs there more detailed documentation about debhelper besides the manpages and maint-guide?12:18
LaserJockwell, I'll just put it after dh_fixperms and see if it works and then float that by Kamion12:18
micahcowanyeah, and I'd get more suggestions from him this time if he doesn't like it. Something besides dpkg-statoverride... or an explanation as to why that's better :p12:19

rmjbso you guys, The Masters of the Universe, see programs/libraries like this pmplib, and package it up for Ubuntu, and maintain the packages as new versions are released?12:59
rmjbis that how it works?12:59
LaserJockwell, mostly we maintain differences between Ubuntu and Debian01:00
LaserJockthat is our primary goal01:00
LaserJockso if a new package is introduced into Ubuntu Universe then yes we try to maintain that01:00
rmjbso if there's a package in debian, an Ubuntu user can use that?01:01
LaserJockbut better is to find somebody to maintain it in Debian01:01
LaserJockyes, our packages come from Debian01:01

rmjbso to become a motu you have to be familiar with the debian packages and process?01:05
LaserJockyes01:05
rmjboh, slightly higher bar to enter than I thought01:06
LaserJockit's not too bad01:06
zulits not like bootcamp01:06
LaserJockit's just that Ubuntu uses the same packaging policy (basically) as Debian01:07
FujitsuIt's not too bad, though I'm not a MOTU yet.01:07
LaserJockso you need to learn how to create packages that conform to the Debian Policy01:07
rmjbok01:07
LaserJockand you should at least have a general idea of how things work in Debian so when you need to interact with them you know what to do01:08
LaserJockbut that's a part of the learning process01:08
rmjbare there more sessions planned for the #motu-school?01:08
ajmitcheventually :)01:08
DarkMageZrmjb, pmplib depends on libmozjs-dev which doesn't appear to exist in ubuntu01:09
rmjbyou get that error on configure or make?01:10
DarkMageZon the dependency check from pbuilder01:10
rmjbon configure I get a warning about a javascript library not installed, it seems it needs the spidermonkey library which shows up in my synaptic01:11
rmjbbut that's just a warning01:11
ajmitchDarkMageZ: part of xulrunner in sid01:11
DarkMageZajmitch, if i change that dependency to firefox-dev would that be ok?01:12
rmjbi installed libsmjs-dev01:12
ajmitchDarkMageZ: it may work :)01:12
DarkMageZhmm, ok, i'll change that depend to libsmjs-dev then01:12
rmjblater on I had to install libvorbis-dev on a error during the compile01:13
rmjbthat did not indicate itself during the configure01:13
DarkMageZlibvorbis-dev is listed 01:13
rmjbwhere are you seeing this list of dependencies?01:13
DarkMageZrmjb, in the control file in the debian folder.01:15
rmjbhmm... my source package from sf.net doesn't have a debian folder... I guess that's why you guys are the Masters of the Univers01:16
DarkMageZwhich doesn't exist in the 0.12 source package. i pulled pmplib from svn01:16
rmjboh01:16
DarkMageZbut i pulled the 0.12 branch. pmplib doesn't seem to be an active project, last change was 4 weeks ago01:17
rmjbthat's okay, it worked under windows01:17
rmjbjust need the same functionality under linux for my mp3 player01:18
rmjbhey, looks like it worked! I did a make clean distclean and created a separate pmplib-build directory and did everything in there and it worked01:22
rmjbnow the best way to install this is with checkinstall right?01:23

DarkMageZlike? i've been running it for a week01:38
zuloooh...we have a masochist in our midst01:38
Fujitsuyelp will break, anything else that uses gecko will break...01:38

rmjbcool01:39
tsengDarkMageZ: you will break about 180 things01:39

DarkMageZnext i'm thinking of trying trunk, hopefully that will break yelp 01:41
LaserJockFujitsu: yelp doesn't work for you?01:42
FujitsuLaserJock, it should break in a Gecko change like that, shouldn't it?01:42
LaserJocklike what?01:43
LaserJockand I have no idea01:43
FujitsuLike Firefox 2 being dropped into Dapper?01:43
LaserJockwell, I guess it would depend on "dropped into"01:43
zulheh...i think you are going to give iwj a conniption if someone did that01:43
DarkMageZok, i'm uploading the firefox 2.0b2 packages for dapper to my repo now. so any non-believers can try for themselfs 01:45
crimsunthe more unofficial crackful package we have circulating, the bigger our headache. Please request official backports instead.01:46

ajmitcheg the number of mono issues I've had with broken dbus backports01:47

matiuIs there someone who would maintain it and get into ubuntu official and ed-ubuntu.. ?10:28
matiuajmitch: I don't know what the new python policy is...10:29
imbrandonmatiu: your in the right room/place to ask ;)10:29
matiuOur ubuntu package is the most popular linux download10:29
matiusecond only to windoze10:29
ajmitchquite a large source tarball :)10:29
matiuovertook rpm this year...10:29
matiuyeah, it's a bit mucky, including twisted, nevow and formless10:30
matiuI can take them out (except nevow)10:30
ajmitchouch10:30
ajmitchit can't build with an external python-nevow?10:30
matiutrouble is we depend on an older version that's not available in dapper onwards10:30
ajmitchhm10:31
matiuWe tried 3 times to upgrade it, but get wierd slowing down problems10:31
ajmitchthe debian packaging isn't in the source tarball I see, which is fine (and probably preferred)10:31
matiuthe webserver gets slower and slower after each request. Haven't been able to fix it10:31
matiuajmitch: really, it's just a super hack, to make ubuntu users happy. But I'd really like to see get into edubuntu official10:32
ajmitchright10:32
ajmitchso it may need done from scratch?10:32
matiubut I'm the lead developer and have too much on my plate to work out how to make packages.10:32
ajmitchis it a python extension or a python module?10:32
matiuSome people voluteered to do it, then dissappeared. about 3 times now :(10:33
matiuIt's really an app10:33
matiudoesn't actually install in /usr/lib/python2.410:33
ajmitchah right10:33
matiujust all goes into /usr/share/exe10:33
ajmitchand some stuff in /usr/bin?10:33
matiuyeah, one file10:33
matiucalled 'exe'10:33
matiu:)10:33
ajmitchnaming is a little difficult :)10:34
matiuyeah. Try searching for it!10:34
imbrandonlol10:34
matiuwe're moving to exelearning name. better10:34
ajmitchdependencies?10:34
matiujust twisted really10:35
ajmitchok10:35
ajmitchstandard distutils install?10:35
matiuand formless, perhaps. If twisted doesn't already depend on it10:35
matiu(also it includes a cusomised firefox)10:35
=== matiu winces
matiuThat's another reason for bigness10:35
matiuDo you think there's any chance of getting it in official? or too evil?10:36
ajmitchouch10:36
ajmitchthe customised firefox would probably be the main killer10:36
matiuWe could probably make it work with normal firefox10:36
matiuonly there would be two menus...10:37
matiunot very professional looking10:37
matiuactually we could make a server only app10:37
matiuaw. I don't know. Maybe not10:38
matiuour ff has some chrome edits and accepts some undocumented command line options10:38
matiuthat ubuntu firefox sometimes does and sometimes doesn't10:38
matiudepending on each release of it10:38
matiuthe command line opts allow us to launch a special profile with special low security settings allowing our "localhost" web server to write files etc...10:39
matiuI'm sorry. I have to fly. I'll see if I can catch up again tommorrow ajmitch. Thanks for your help.10:40

dholbachAnAnt: yes02:39
dholbachAnAnt: I diffed the two debian/ dirs02:39
dholbachAnAnt: it seems you changed the debhelper build-depends version02:40
AnAntdholbach: yup02:40
dholbachAnAnt: I couldn't see why that was necessary02:40
AnAntdholbach: because when I leave it as it is, the REVUers tell me that : compat should be set to 5, debhelper to >= (5.0.0), Standards-Version to 3.7.202:40
dholbachthen you should tell them: this is a package update - I want to keep the diff small02:41
AnAntwhat diff ?02:41
dholbachthat's a valid and good argument02:41
dholbachdiff ubuntu debian02:41
tsengHobbsee: man it takes forever to build ethereal02:41
AnAntwhy would this make the diff big ?02:41
dholbachnot big02:41
dholbachbut it's an unnecessary change02:41
Hobbseetseng: *g*02:41
Hobbseetseng: what do you have to build it forthis time?02:42
tsengHobbsee: i am trying to build it with gtk 1.2 to spot a "regression"02:42
Hobbseeah02:42
tsengHobbsee: this is infuriating02:42
tsengHobbsee: ...we run it over remote X11 to windows clients02:42
dholbachAnAnt: nevermind - it was a sidenote - I uploaded it anyway... it's just a difference, if it's a package YOU maintain or if it's a package you have to merge every now and then02:42
tsengfor network staff02:42
tsengHobbsee: now that it was running good for awhile people will not believe that remote X is shit and this was a bad idea from the onset02:43

AnAntdholbach: yeah, I know it was a sidenote, but I needed to understand02:43

AnAntdholbach: still don't02:45
dholbachAnAnt: ok. setting the Standards-Version is nice - so if it's a package where you write the packaging and you maintain it, you should have it.02:46
dholbachAnAnt: if it's a package that we sync from debian and it's the easiest way for us to have good quality software, it's nice if we can just sync it02:46

=== nixternal [n=nixterna@ubuntu/member/nixternal] has joined #ubuntu-motu
AnAntdholbach: ok, I noticed that Debian hasn't done any apcalc packages since Jan, so did they stop ?02:47
dholbachAnAnt: if changes are not necessary, one has to contemplate how much the change is02:47
dholbachAnAnt: that's something you need to ask the maintainer of the package - I don't know02:47
AnAntdholbach: ok, thanks02:47
dholbachOk, super.02:48
AnAntdholbach: ok how about this question02:48
AnAntdholbach: sometimes if I use the Debian diff as it is, the resulting binary debs got some lintian/linda issues02:48
dholbachif you forward the diff to the debian maintainer, that's cool02:49
AnAntdholbach: like in the case of apcalc, the .menu file is in the apcalc-common instead of the apcalc package, and the FSF address is old02:49

iapx8088wait09:25
iapx8088lfittl, the licence I saw was in debian/ and was here due the fact that it's a spin-off from the unofficial debian port09:26

iapx8088I'm searching09:27

iapx8088lfittl, I understand that spice is under the oldest BSD licence, so no GPLed code may be linked against it, so Debian refuses to package it.09:35
iapx8088but basically, the licence is very free09:36
iapx8088and if you asks berkeley, they don't answer, the ngspice team already pleaded them to change the license.09:36
iapx8088anyway, my package like the debian one, is sort of a wrapper, it works only if You provide the source09:38
lfittliapx8088: basically, apart from being non-commercial, it is free, but the source files don't have the correct license headers, which means the chance that this will get into ubuntu is very small09:38
iapx8088I understand09:38

iapx8088I feared that09:38
iapx8088I believe it will end like the Debian port, staying unofficial.09:38
lfittlstill better than having no package available at all, just promote it somewhere so that people can find it ;)09:39
iapx8088no problem for me, but it's a pity, SPICE is the mother of all simulators.09:39

iapx8088:09:41
iapx8088:\09:41
Tutensteinhi, what is the first step to getting involved in development...I have got much free time nowadays...09:41
iapx8088lfittl, what i don't understand very well, is how ngspice (a spinoff) is in the repos...09:42
iapx8088I mean, you take someone else code, you tweak it, and then it's ok?09:42

iapx8088there's something weird in the situation09:43
=== Mez [i=Brummi3@ubuntu/member/mez] has joined #ubuntu-motu
lfittlit seems very weird to me, are there many people interested in having this packaged?09:44
iapx8088mmmh I believe so.09:44
iapx8088Imho yes, pratically all the el* engineers09:44
iapx8088they resort to wine+ltspice actually09:45
lfittlcan't they use the spinoff?09:45
iapx8088probably, but the good in spice is that it's a reference, while in the spinoff they tweaked a little the algorithms, so you can't no longer say SPICE says so.09:45
lfittlah, I see09:46
iapx8088if you say ngspice says so, you are to be answered, and who the hell is it the guy behind ngspice?09:46
iapx8088spice, old and crusty, bad and slow, is a safe reference,09:46
Q-FUNKmorning ajmitch09:46
lfittlmorning ajmitch09:47
iapx8088but I would have to see better the work under ngspice, who knows? maybe they didn't tweak the algos09:47
iapx8088anyway I see the point.09:47
iapx8088If there's a way to put spice in ubuntu, I would be more than eager to mantain it.09:47
iapx8088if not, long live ngspice :D09:48
=== Tutenstein [n=ask@85.96.243.197] has joined #ubuntu-motu
lfittlsure, and maybe there is a way to get it in, but it will take some time, so don't expect it to be in edgy09:48
iapx8088we have time, we waited 100 years for SPICE09:49
iapx8088:D09:49
lfittl:)09:49
iapx8088the ngspice situation is more than interesting for me, I'm developing internally a spice on steroids and it would be great to put it on ubuntu09:50
iapx8088I mean, I'm leaving alone the algos, and trying to settle the little big problems around.09:51
iapx8088it would be a great thing, but what's the point of making it if I cannot relase it and the distros cannot package it...all lost work09:51

LaserJockhmm, well I count ~10 less packages on REVU after REVU day :/10:05
ajmitchLaserJock: plus a  number of comments & updates10:06
LaserJockwell sure10:06
ajmitchLaserJock: we just have to keep reviewing until freeze day10:06
LaserJockI'm wondering more about efficency though10:07
ajmitchin what way?10:07
LaserJockare we putting a lot of work into stuff that isn't making it into Universe?10:07
ajmitchyes10:07
ajmitchfeel free to suggest how we can see what won't make it into universe :)10:07
LaserJockwell, we'd need to analyze the problem first10:08
LaserJockis it that we just have low quality packages10:08
ajmitchlow barrier of entry10:08
LaserJockor is it that we are hitting a lot of copyright/license  problems10:08
ajmitchpeople upload packages, expect instant feedback, and don't update10:09
LaserJockor is it that people aren't getting feedback fast enough and give up10:09
ajmitchfar more quality issues than licensing, from what I've seen10:09
LaserJockk10:09
Q-FUNKajmitch: that would be them missing the part about droping by here or to -devle to ask for feedback10:09
ajmitchQ-FUNK: which they don't always get10:09
Q-FUNKajmitch: why not?10:09
ajmitchbecause people aren't always around & available10:10
Q-FUNKah10:10
Q-FUNKso impatience10:10
ajmitchsure :)10:10
ajmitchwe can't do much about that10:10
iapx8088I'm new, but I expect to start reviewing, not just sit here and wait for someone to slash my ill-driven package.10:11
iapx8088;-(10:11
Q-FUNKis there any way we could incorporate some sort of mentoring in a more systematic way, so that true bleu beginers get a helping hand for their first few packages?10:11
ajmitchwe've tried, there's a list of willing mentors10:12
Q-FUNKat debian, the systematic feedback I get from sponsors and from my AM have helped me increase the quality of my packages really quick.10:12
ajmitchin debian, there are a lot more people to sponsor & give feedback10:12
Q-FUNKcall me silly, but I think that forcing people to first go thru sponsored uploads with sponsor's feedback turns out to have benefits, on that aspect10:13
LaserJockthat's what we do10:13
Q-FUNKwhere it goes silly is that right next to it, the step towards DD via NM is huge10:13

shawarmaajmitch: I didn't even notice. I was reading the NetworkManager FAQ and saw them referenced, so someone clearly wants/needs them.10:17
ajmitchwe try & keep the quality bar high enough for universe10:17
Q-FUNKshawarma: gotta admit that your nickname rings of delicious grilled meat ;)10:17
ajmitchsure, some people may be stricter on quality than others, but I'd hope that we're not letting through obvious crack :)10:18
iapx8088I believe that the stuff should be on a single website, the wiki and all;  I believe there should be just one registration for everything.10:18
shawarmaQ-FUNK: One of these days, I'll make up a silly story about it meaning something obscene in Danish. :-)10:18
ajmitchiapx8088: give it time10:18
Q-FUNKshawarma: some religious cartoonish reference comes to mind :-P10:18
shawarmaajmitch: I actually think crack has an easier time sneaking into Debian.10:18
ajmitchiapx8088: we're limited in what we can work with, and the time it takes to develop stuff10:18
iapx8088ajmitch, yes I understand, of course there were suggestions :D10:19
shawarmaajmitch: Have you seen the axiom package? I still wake up screaming sometimes after merging that one.10:19
LaserJock:-)10:19
ajmitchshawarma: no, I don't touch most packages10:19
=== Q-FUNK points out that he's been on #debian-ubuntu for the last while and is a willing candidate to help bridge the gap
ajmitchQ-FUNK: bridge the gap in what way, though?10:19
=== ajmitch has seen efforts to help bridge the gap come & go :)
Q-FUNKajmitch: I'm mostly interested in uploading as much as possible directly into debian, to thin down on the amount of ubuntu-specific diffs if possible10:20
=== LaserJock isn't fond oof thouse
iapx8088why don't starting categorizing people? I mean, I'm an electronic eng, I could test both the package and the program itself for all the elettr* packages. So could a graphic, and so could a med.10:20
LaserJockiapx8088: we have those10:20
iapx8088I don't know if presently there are el programs in revu, the name doesn't always speak. If I'd know, I'd be reviewing them just now.10:21
ajmitchQ-FUNK: I'm fairly sure that all of my packages in Ubuntu are also in Debian10:21
shawarmaajmitch: Well, to be fair, only the network-manager-pptp has been touched since back in April.10:21
Q-FUNKajmitch: as my lp page says, I'm doing NM and yet i've been handing out ubuntu CDs for the last couple of years.10:21
ajmitchshawarma: that was the main one I was asking about, since I was reviewing it with plug :)10:21
Q-FUNKajmitch: there's still tons of packages that receive useful patches in buntu that don't make it in debian10:22
ajmitchof course10:22
shawarmaajmitch: "with plug"?10:22
ajmitchah, you still have T&S to go :)10:22
ajmitchshawarma: Plug, aka Craig Box10:22
Q-FUNKI subscribe to madduck's idea of sympathetic DDs doing everything they can to help merge and upload10:23
ajmitchQ-FUNK: and I do that10:23
LaserJockI don't think there should be teams for that10:23
ajmitchI was uploading stuff to debian until late last night :)10:23
shawarmaajmitch: Hmmm... assume that I've just stumbled in from the street and don't know anything about anything... What is Craig Box?10:23
shawarmaajmitch: I'm totally lost here.10:23
ajmitchshawarma: someone who has his package on revu10:23
LaserJockthis should be DD and MOTU wide thing10:23
shawarmaajmitch: Ah...10:23
LaserJockDDs should be open to looking at Ubuntu patches, and MOTUs should be open to sending them10:24
LaserJocktraining is a part of that10:24
shawarmaajmitch: I thought you were reviewing it with plug as in "I'm using this new magical wand called "plug" to review it".10:24
ajmitchno10:24
shawarmaajmitch: I see what you mean now.10:24
shawarmaajmitch: Will anything be messed up if you nuke my uploads of that package?10:25
ajmitchyes, it'll take out the whole package10:25
shawarmaajmitch: upload no. 3190 and 319210:26
shawarmaajmitch: Ah, ok.10:26
ajmitchiirc nukes don't just work on uploads now10:26
shawarmaajmitch: Ok. I'll send plug an e-mail asking him to reupload. I don't want to step on anyone's toes.10:27
ajmitchhe'll probably be on irc later10:27

Mezsiretart: ping10:54
shawarmaPlug: so... Do you want to "keep it" or should we just leave my updated package there? I don't mind either way.10:54
siretartMez: yes?10:55
Mezsiretart: any chance of updating the sources.list on tiber so that it pulls the sources from edgy when you apt-get source ?10:56
PlugI'd like to keep it at this point10:59
Plugbut I'll check the differences out with you11:00
Plugcos at this point I have no idea what you've done11:00
siretartMez: you could use an apt-get option to use a custom sources.list. would that help you?11:01
Mezsiretart: I was just wondering-  as that how you used it before..,it's not  aproblem to get it manuallyt11:01
LaserJocksiretart: will *only* adding a deb-src line allow you to do that?11:01
MezLaserJock, it did before ;)11:02
shawarmaLaserJock: What else would you add?11:02
LaserJockdeb11:02
shawarmaLaserJock: No need.11:02
LaserJockbut we don't want that on tiber ;-)11:02
shawarmaLaserJock: Oh, no. Is it still running Breezy?11:02
LaserJockI'm just wondering if you put in a deb-src line for edgy11:02
LaserJockand you run apt-get source11:02
LaserJockwill it grab edgy11:03
shawarmaLaserJock: Yes.11:03
LaserJockisn't there a way to set it up so you can specify the repo?11:03
shawarmaPlug: Ok. I've noticed a bug in my most recent upload, but if you're reworking it, it doesn't matter.11:03
shawarmaLaserJock: apt-get source -t distro packagename   ?11:04
LaserJocksomething like that11:04
shawarmaLaserJock: No, exactly that. :-)11:04
LaserJocka waaaay long time ago I remember trying something like that on Fedora11:04
LaserJockseemed like you didn't need the -t though, like it was after the packagename11:05
shawarmaLaserJock: It works here. My build server has both dapper and edgy configured and I can do it like that.11:05
siretartI'd like to get tiber updated to breezy first11:05
LaserJockI thought it was running breezy?11:05
siretartbut I'd like to do this with sistpoty11:05
Plugshawarma: are you still working from the 'released' 0.6.2 source?11:06

LaserJockis the machine actually located with you guys siretart?11:06
siretartLaserJock: no, it is hosted at serverpronto.com11:06
FujitsuOh no...11:06
FujitsuI've got bad memories of upgrading Breezy->Dapper with them.11:07
siretartFujitsu: so?11:07
ajmitchsiretart: we can probably manage that in steps :)11:07
shawarmaPlug: "released"?11:07
shawarmaPlug: My starting point was a checkout of the vpn directories of the gnome cvs with the RELEASE_0_6_3 tag (or something like that).11:08
PlugRight11:08
shawarmaPlug: ...since edgy uses 0.6.3. The dapper package uses 0.6.2.11:08
Plugthere were lots of fixes committed to HEAD that I don't think are on a release branch yet11:09
Plugbut we made sure the package worked with the dapper version as a priority11:09
shawarmaPlug: Are the dbus interfaces compatible?11:09
Plugthey haven't changed11:09
Plugthe dict stuff is in NM HEAD11:09
shawarmaPlug: Yes.11:09
Plugbut we have also got some nice detection stuff that will use the right interface for the right version11:09
=== Kyral [n=kyral@ubuntu/member/kyral] has joined #ubuntu-motu
shawarmaPlug: At least the interface for passing ip configuration info from the vpn plugin to networkmanager has changed since 0.6.3 release.11:10
Plugyep11:10
shawarmaPlug: incompatibly so.11:10
Plugput it this way, my package should work for 0.6.2 and 0.6.311:10
Plugand possibly for anything higher, but that wasn't a current concern11:10
Plugas edgy is (I assume) sticking with 0.6.311:11
shawarmaPlug: Right. the same probably goes for mine. I don't think there were any changes in this area between 0.6.2 and 0.6.3.11:11
shawarmaPlug: It will not work with anything after 0.6.3, I think.11:11
KyralLaserJock: ping11:11
Plugyour original package didn't work for me as I needed to specify 'refuse-eap' to connect to my (Windows 2003) VPN server11:11
Plugand there was no way of doing this, or specifying extra options, from the interface11:11
PlugThat's one of the many things we fixed :)11:12
shawarmaPlug: About a week after 0.6.3 was released rml committed a change to the dbus interface for passing ip configuration. Not the dict stuff, but just an extra parameter for the method call.11:12
Plugshawarma: accounted for11:12
Plugit was mss, iirc?11:12
shawarmaPlug: Oh, cool! You made actual changes? :-)11:12
PlugHell yes! :)11:12
shawarmaPlug: Might be.11:12
PlugI spent a good number of hours with the author, working in CVS11:13
Plugwe fixed all number of nasties11:13
shawarmaPlug: Just for that plugin or general networkmanager crap?11:13
PlugJust for that plugin.11:13
Plugin saying that, some of the rest of the bugs are fixed in newer NMs11:13
ajmitchPlug: great, so the remaining fix before it gets uploaded is probably just moving files from /usr/lib11:13
Plugsuch as "if you click save, you can't then click edit on the same connection - you have to quit the dialog first"11:14
shawarmaPlug: Well then. Please upload your shiny, new, nicer plugin to revu again. The changes to move the stuff out of /usr/bin is really simple. I can make a diff just for that stuff if you want it.11:14
ajmitchand then we can advocate it & bug someone else to review it11:14
Plugthe usr/lib thing is a build parameter I believe11:14
Plugits marked on another package anyway11:15
PlugI just need to turn that PC on (which probably means after 5pm tonight, in ~8 hours)11:15
shawarmaPlug: Ok. How did you manage to work around the added parameter in the dbus method call?11:15
Plugcommented out the line in a patch in the package, I believe11:19
Plugwould need the source in front of me to confirm11:19
siretartgnarf11:19
shawarmaPlug: Oh. :-) I thought you cast an introspection spell and figured out if networkmanager wanted the extra parameter and passed it depending on that.11:21
Plughttp://revu.tauware.de/revu1-incoming/network-manager-pptp-0609121645/network-manager-pptp_0.6.3+cvs20060819-0ubuntu8.diff.gz11:21

Plugnothing quite that smart I'm afraid! :)11:22
