[03:52] infinity: tasks don't exist for them at all? [03:52] Nope. [03:52] I think we have to live with this for beta then [03:53] I'd have been more concerned about it, except that the first thing we do on a ubiquity install is to remove all the -live depedencies anyway. [03:53] Though, we don't remove the langpack stuff (or re-add it in a suboptimal fashion), which would be leading to this. [03:53] Pain. [03:54] I don't suppose mvo added a "pretend all the dependencies are manually installed" flag... [03:54] That would be awfully clever, but I don't think so. [03:55] we could release beta with this bug, but if we can fix it in the livefs build, I think that's worth it === Huahua [n=hua_@122.0.228.79] has joined #ubuntu-devel [03:56] any better idea than hardcoding the lists of *ubuntu-live deps? [03:56] Well, there are a few ways to fix it, and all seem resonably trivial. Could be fixed in apt (with a new flag), in the archive (adding tasks), or in ubiquity itself by reordering how it does some things. [03:56] fixing it in apt is a 4-hour process [03:56] once the fix is uploaded [03:57] Fixing it for beta would mean me pulling the seed output and parsing it to manually install the lot. [03:57] I already do that for the OpenCD builds, so the code exists. [03:57] oh, interesting [03:57] I'm also thinking of ways we could correct this with an update [03:58] unfortunately the extended status doesn't say which package pulled it in, so it's tricky to say [03:58] I can certainly do the ugly livefs.sh hack for now, and we can discuss with Kamion and mvo the "right" way to fix it later. [03:58] Should be about 10 minutes of cut-n-waste and another 10-20 mins to test locally and make sure I didn't bugger it up. [03:59] I don't think anything acts on the autoremove data as yet, so this arguably isn't a very big deal [04:00] if we can fix it cleanly in an update [04:00] Well, fixing it cleanly would mean magically marking all that stuff as manually installed later... Which sounds tricky. [04:00] the marking is easy; it's the test for whether we should mark it which I'm unsure about [04:00] the livefs approach seems worth a try [04:01] btw, please disable the cron jobs if you haven't already === zul_ [n=chuck@CPE0006258ec6c1-CM000a73655d0e.cpe.net.cable.rogers.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel [04:01] They've been disabled for a couple of days, since Tollef requested it. [04:02] ok [04:02] the cdimage builds weren't for some reason [04:02] They are now, I assume? [04:02] I have disabled them now, yes [04:03] Well, most of them. [04:03] I assume you left ports and xubuntu enabled for a reason? [04:03] had no reason to disable them [04:03] I don't know if they're even succeeding, but they weren't in my way [04:03] Fair enough. [04:04] I haven't seen jani and have no idea if there will be a xubuntu beta === infinity thinks harder about this bug. [04:04] so I haven't been poking at it [04:04] I think I must misunderstand how ubiquity works. [04:04] mdz: there are plans, yes [04:04] I assumed it removed all of the *-live stuff, then installed langpacks. [04:04] But obviously not, or this wouldn't happen. === givre [n=flo@APuteaux-152-1-25-156.w82-120.abo.wanadoo.fr] has left #ubuntu-devel [] [04:05] right, it filters the langpack stuff [04:05] Ahh, pain. [04:05] Makes more sense for speed, I guess, just exposes this. [04:05] we could fix this by hacking up /var/lib/apt/extended_status at the end of the livefs build [04:05] Okay, I'll hack livefs.sh to just install it all manually for now. [04:05] fixing extended_status is arguably more correct [04:06] since if they later remove the langpack, it'll DTRT [04:06] it's pretty easy to parse [04:06] Hrm, so just make language-support-en be marked manual, but leave the rest auto? [04:06] a perl one-liner would do the job I expect [04:06] support and pack [04:06] let me try it in a live boot [04:07] Well, if you drop support, you might want to auto-remove pack, no? === kermitX_ [n=kermit@unaffiliated/cxg] has joined #ubuntu-devel [04:10] infinity: they're both explicitly seeded, and selecting the installer language should make them both manual [04:12] infinity: perl -i.old -nle '$dec=3 if /^Package: language-(pack|support)/; print unless $dec-- > 0;' /var/lib/apt/extended_states [04:13] infinity: or the more correct perl -i.old -nle 'print unless /^Package: language-(pack|support)/ .. /^$/;' /var/lib/apt/extended_states [04:13] should do the trick [04:14] Kay, let me do a test build here.

[05:57] it doesn't get much more on-topic than that [05:57] mdz: I was confused as to what you were really saying [05:58] mdz, not off-topic... [05:58] it was primarily a brief note to the release team letting them know what happened while they were asleep [05:58] sure, I know [05:58] but I figured it might be of interest to the development team in general as well, so sent to -devel [05:59] in crunches like this, I'm not likely to have time to write a detailed progress report, and the situation changes quickly anyway. however, it's important to keep the development team informed [05:59] what do you think could be done differently to improve it? [06:00] I don't know, but it looks very much like it was indeed addressed to just the release team, and is going to confuse people who don't know everything about the current status. [06:01] I don't know how it could have been improved, though... [06:01] it seems a few initial impressions were "huh? Is the beta still scheduled for release [today] ?" [06:02] mdz: I think saying that it's mainly for the release team, but others on -devel may be interested would be good [06:02] that way if I don't understand, I know it's not mainly intended to me [06:03] minghua, yes, as it's obviously very directed to the release team. It's just going to confuse everybody else if they think they should be able to understand it. [06:03] mdz: but I sure appreciate the update, it's definitely better than nothing [06:06] Fujitsu: appearances aside, it really is a developer-oriented list and we should be able to have this type of conversation on it [06:06] I'll try to remember to add a one-liner at the top if I do it again [06:06] mdz, that'd be good. [06:06] [warning! actual development content inside, please open carefully] ;-) [06:07] It may be a development-oriented list, but a whole lot of people on it aren't developers, and a lot of the discussion isn't as developer oriented... [06:07] Haha, exactly [06:08] Fujitsu: that's more a problem with how the list has drifted off topic lately [06:08] ajmitch, of course. [06:09] I'd like to think that people reading a devel list will apply "If I don't understand it, it's not for me" to each message, as a general rule. [06:09] I certainly don't understand (or care to understand) half of what I read on lkml, for instance. [06:09] and I appreciated having the release update on -devel [06:13] mdz: does LP allow anybody to target a spec at Edgy? [06:14] Burgundavia: I believe it allows anyone to propose a spec for edgy, but only privileged users can approve it [06:14] https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+milestone/ubuntu-6.10 <-- the spec list here looks really odd [06:14] oh, and deferred should remove a spec from the targetting [06:16] Burgundavia: oh, a milestone, not a release [06:16] I have no idea, maybe [06:17] that might not require any special privileges [06:17] that is a bit of an issue, because being on that list implies it is being included [06:17] morning guys [06:17] infinity: workaround confirmed in the current build [06:17] how are we doing?

Do we care about xubuntu for beta? (I'm building it anyway, out of the kindness of my heart, but if it's not urgent, I can go grab some lunch and pay my rent before I spin the xubuntu ISOs) [06:19] infinity: crimsun seemed to be in the loop on xubuntu, I know nothing [06:19] crimsun: ? [06:20] infinity: it's not urgent but would be greatly appreciated [06:20] infinity: I don't think anyone is present who is actively working on xubuntu beta, so I don't think there's any hurry [06:20] crimsun: Okay, I'll spin the xubuntu ISOs when I get back from lunch/rent, then, since paying rent before my real estate agent closes is somewhat time-sensitive. :/ [06:21] infinity: many thanks! [06:22] infinity: the edubuntu desktop build will be 20060928.1? === infinity twiddles his thumbs, waiting for lithium to finish with edubuntu. [06:22] mdz: Should be, yeah. [06:22] infinity: and you're only building desktop/live, right? [06:22] mdz: Right. [06:23] I'm posting a list of candidate build numbers [06:24] hmmm [06:24] 62712 might affect netinstalls too [06:25] mdz: what was the workaround you used? [06:25] Won't affect netinstalls. [06:25] Since netinstalls won't install ubuntu-live and then remove it. [06:25] ah right [06:25] ok [06:26] mdz: edubuntu/desktop 20060928.1 published. [06:26] And really, really, really big on powerpc. [06:27] I can only assume that ogra's already aware of that, mind you, since he's got his finger on the pulse of all things CD-size-related.

[11:05] fabbione, works for me ... on the ibook [11:05] meh [11:06] Kamion: in what repository is it? do I need to talk to cprov about it? [11:06] Kamion: How many minutes/hours of hack time would it take you to make the wrapper generate arch-dependant overrides? === fabbione curses ati [11:06] mvo: it's part of launchhpad [11:06] launchpad [11:06] infinity: not sure, will investigate [11:06] is it beta-urgent? [11:06] Only if ogra wants ppc/desktop CDs. Otherwise, not really. [11:06] But if it's a 5-minute hack, may as well. [11:07] If not, then it can wait. [11:07] if you're talking about the tasks, you'd have to change how launchpad writes it's apt.conf for apt-ftparchive [11:07] and do per architecture sections [11:07] yeah, I thought it might be something like that ... [11:07] Oh, feh. [11:07] (which doesn't sound 5-minute to me...) [11:07] I thought it was just cron.germinate to blame here. [11:08] Yeah, the apt.conf mangling in the publisher is less obvious. [11:08] do you happen to know how the file needs to change? [11:08] infinity: no - both dak and soyuz use one section per distro-release/suite, that covers all architectures -> on extra override file for all arches [11:08] I don't know that bit of apt-ftparchive [11:08] infinity, since the install cd for ppc is ine i can live with broken live ones [11:08] *fine [11:08] only way to have per-architecture extra override files without hacking apt-ftparchive would be to write different 'tree' sections for each distro-release+architecture [11:09] I thought apt-ftparchive already got hacked to support per-arch fields [11:09] btw, this is hand-waving speculation based on what I'd do in/for dak if we were still using it. I am not team soyuz and I do not speak for them [11:09] elmo: can't we use the pkg/arch syntax? or is the apt-ftparchive too old for this? [11:09] of course drescher is still using *hoary*'s apt-ftparchive [11:09] Kamion: in extra overrides? news to me, and we're still using hoary's apt-ftparchive [11:10] can we please upgrade that at some point? [11:10] yeah apt-ftparchive has it, but not in hoary :/ [11:10] Well, we want edgy's ideally anyway. [11:10] * Support architecture-specific extra overrides [11:10] (closes: #225947). Thanks to Anthony Towns for idea and [11:10] the patch, thanks to Colin Watson for testing it. [11:10] For a variety of reasons. [11:10] in 0.6.41 [11:10] Kamion: I've had that discussion to death - please feel free to convince them of that [11:10] they seem more interested in rewriting apt-ftparchive [11:11] but i would say upgrading from hoary to later is not something you'd want to do before-preview === ogra2 [n=ogra@p548AF83B.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [11:11] the new version would be much faster as well .. [11:11] elmo: No, doing it right after beta would be nice though. [11:11] also because hoary is close to EOL [11:11] Kamion: Anyhow, ogra's said he can live with his breakage, so looking at this immediately post-beta would be nice to put on our TODO. [11:12] Kamion: And edgy's apt would be the ideal one to backport, since mvo's given us some other archive-related fixes recently. [11:12] elmo: last I heard they were going to keep using apt-ftparchive for the distro for edgy, and trial the replacement on PPAs [11:12] so there's a worthwhile window [11:12] infinity: when this gets started, please ping me so that I can double check again that we have everything etc === ogra goes for amd64 testing === Spads [n=spacehob@217.205.109.249] has joined #ubuntu-devel [11:13] Kamion: I'd certainly hope so - given the replacement will be generating Packages/Sources for the entire distro including d-u and d-s [11:13] indeed === mvo grumbles because he can't find the no-partman-resize-progress bugnumber [11:14] infinity: I can create *-live tasks fairly easily, but after beta === ogra2 [n=ogra@p548AF83B.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [11:14] Kamion: I'm unconvinced that *-live as tasks is the correct solution anyway. [11:15] why? [11:15] Kamion: That bug magically goes away completely if I'm allowed to roll out stacked-livefs post-beta. [11:15] I thought we discussed that the other week [11:15] it would be nice to have *-live as tasks anyway because rolling new metapackages for late changes is time we don't need to waste [11:15] Though it doesn't *hurt* to have *-live as tasks, I guess, it just feels like unnecessary cruft. [11:15] tasks are less cruft than metapackages, honestly [11:15] Oh, fair point on the "screw metapackages" front. [11:16] I forgot baout that conversation. [11:16] anyway, time to clear up universe syncs [11:16] I'm losing it in my old age. [11:16] Riddell: hi, did you imported already new kopete translations from upstream? Could I move it from kdenetwork to kopete in Rosetta?

[11:37] sure [11:37] then (a) there should be debconf debug output on stderr, which I'd like, and (b) /var/log/syslog should be more informative [11:37] I must arrange for the debconf debug output to go to syslog [11:37] urg, now it worked [11:38] i'll do all the installations with UBIQUITY_DEBUG=1 now [11:38] I'm adding a "Known issues" to the EdgyEft/Beta page.

The previous version which didn't build fixed some patches (lpi, menu changes) dropped and make the "Applications,System Tools" category not been listed by default again [12:32] dunno if the menu cleanup matters for beta, probably not [12:33] and I have a edgy-wallpapery upload pending fixing the "artwork preview" text not to be under the panel - if that is deemed important enough (visible it is :-)), I'd prepare and upload that one too [12:35] could someone let me know if we rebuild alternate again? I have a trivial patch pending for the cdromupgrade script then [12:36] i just uploaded a fixed ltsp version ... if we could rebuild that would be cool (at least edubuntu amd64) [12:37] ogra: if that is fixed, please update https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EdgyEft/Beta (KnownIssues) [12:37] mvo, well, the beta CD will still be broken ...

[12:42] yeah, sounds like a race condition [12:42] since on the installed system it works [12:42] because I'll be marking that ubiquity bug as a duplicate when I get round to it [12:42] but the CD is slow ion my laptop [12:43] mdz got a similar issue once [12:43] seb128, i heard about it on ltsp, but didnt see it myself yet [12:43] but with no data and no way to reproduce it that's no fun to debug [12:43] Kamion: right - I'll look for upstream patches that might fix that [12:43] i think sbalneav told me about it, i'll try to get him reproducing it [12:43] seb128: it's because we're using dbus activation and the timeout by default is 15s or something.

[01:10] dholbach: when exactly does universe freeze start? now, 23:59 or when? :) [01:10] slomo_: I doubt it's me deciding that - bug 23:59 UTC would make everybody happy, I guess ;-) [01:10] Malone bug 23 in baz "baz redo should use merge3 for conflicts like most other commands do." [Medium,Unconfirmed] http://launchpad.net/bugs/23 [01:10] slomo_: When Kamion's done processing universe syncs. :) [01:10] s/bug/but [01:10] dholbach: ok ;) 23:59 UTC sounds ok ;) === dholbach hugs infinity [01:11] and then poor kamion has the backlog of new source packages === infinity gives mvo 2 more minutes to speak up before he starts a publisher run. [01:11] pygi: well, the libburn versions are called development releases... no idea... if you want i can give you the package that's currently in NEW and you update it to the libburn version ;) [01:11] that rate of new uploads has gone up in the last week or so [01:12] infinity: yes please [01:12] (within the 2min :) [01:12] mvo: 05:09 < tfheen> infinity: I'm still waiting for an answer to what's broken if it's not approved [01:13] tkamppeter: I did some digging for bug 40795; do you have an idea about that? [01:13] Malone bug 40795 in cupsys "cannot create printers in live system" [High,Needs info] http://launchpad.net/bugs/40795 [01:13] tkamppeter: (brb for discussion, rebooting) [01:13] tfheen: if we don't include it, please won't be able to easily test the cdromupgrade. they will require a backport of update-notifier [01:14] tfheen, oh, wouldnt a edubuntu amd64 install only rebuild be possible ? [01:14] ogra: it would, but do you have time to test it properly? [01:14] you mentioned something like that yesterday [01:14] tfheen: the backport is required anyway so its not that bad. it would be a nice-to-have though [01:14] tfheen, well, it will take me ~2h to test [01:14] mvo: so it doesn't really matter, then? [01:14] ogra: including soyuz + cd building time? [01:15] and rsync [01:15] so it depends somewhat on the tsp package build speed [01:15] *ltsp [01:15] soyuz turnaround is going to be about 70 mins from when I push the button. [01:15] tfheen: its not worth a rebuild no (as I said earlier) [01:15] mvo: ok. [01:15] the rsync works fine today, should be done in a minute for that change [01:15] mvo: I'll hold it off, then. === infinity leaves dist-upgrader in unapproved, and pushes the button. [01:15] infinity: thanks. [01:16] ok [01:16] thanks [01:16] pygi: so what do you think? :) [01:16] slomo_: lemme solve the libburn first :) [01:16] ok? :) [01:17] pygi: ok ;) but only ~12 hours left until universe freeze [01:17] slomo_: yes, I know that :( [01:17] slomo_, it would be nice to have something that uses libburn in the archive ... so it gets user testing ... we plan to do some stuff with libburn in edgy+1 with ltsp [01:18] ogra: yes, agreed... but on the other hand brasero is a really nice application and i would hate it if it's broken for edgy :( [01:18] right [01:20] slomo_: don't see why would it be broken? [01:22] libburn package needs some love before use, I'd say [01:24] pygi: imho development release sounds scary and libburn support is rather new and nothing used libburn before so we don't really know how well libburn behaves... one month earlier or something we would've enough testing and time to fix anything that might show up but now it's really late ;) [01:24] slomo_: actually cdrskin uses libburn :) If you want I can show you how to burn cd using k3b over libburn :) [01:25] slomo_: I'm just looking at the libburn package, it makes me sad [01:25] ajmitch: why? [01:25] slomo_: a lot of packaging issues [01:26] very loose shlibs, explicit depends on libc6, -dev packages don't require any specific libburn-1 version, etc === pirast [n=martin@p508B1CC8.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel === pitti [n=pitti@ubuntu/member/pitti] has joined #ubuntu-devel [01:26] and the SONAME is libburn.so.2, while the package is libburn-1 [01:26] ajmitch: is this the package in the archive? === Gloubiboulga [n=gauvain@ubuntu/member/gloubiboulga] has joined #ubuntu-devel [01:27] the package in binary NEW [01:27] which infinity hasn't quite let through, afaik [01:27] I haven't looked at 0.2-2 in the archive [01:27] probably should be rejected then and fixed before imho [01:27] yeah [01:27] ogra: haven't you tested any of your live CDs and only i386 installs? [01:27] I'm rejecting it anyway. [01:27] pygi: ok but how many users are using this already? but i guess for edgy+1 it would make sense to move everything to libburn very early [01:27] pygi: The SONAME and package name don't match still, apparently. Fix that too, please. :) [01:27] infinity: thanks, I'll look at overhauling it [01:28] infinity: obviously I should create a new package :) [01:28] ajmitch: The SONAME thing and the "doc package is arch:any, not arch:all" things are the two blockers for me. === lfittl [n=lfittl@194.50.115.210] has joined #ubuntu-devel [01:28] ajmitch: You and pygi can fight over who gets to fix it. [01:28] slomo_: true, but we don't get edgy audience then [01:28] tfheen, i tested i386 live ..its fine [01:28] infinity: perhaps just that two blockers for you, but there are more issues [01:28] tfheen, i'm just a bit behind on the wiki, sorry [01:28] we can't let it in like that [01:28] I've got plenty enough to do, pygi can fix it if he can get everything sorted by freeze :) [01:29] ogra: ok. What about amd64 and powerpcs? === lotusleaf [n=lotuslea@unaffiliated/lotusleaf] has joined #ubuntu-devel [01:29] pygi: Oh, I'm sure there are lots. Those are the two obvious "I don't want to ACCEPT this" blockers. [01:29] right :) === ajmitch has to split up xen-3.0 some more anyway [01:29] tfheen, powepc live is exploded due to an archive bug === lucas [n=lucas@ubuntu/member/lucas] has joined #ubuntu-devel [01:29] tfheen: fyi I've got xen userspace headers, and libvirt built === infinity rejects those binaries, so no one else is tempted to accept them. [01:30] ajmitch: you're aware of the git repo zul and I are using for xen (the kernel bits)?

[01:34] Kamion: I'm sorry to pester you like that [01:34] pygi: on another topic... are there n-c-b patches to use libburn? :) [01:34] dholbach: no, please don't ever attach information to an existing ubiquity bug that somebody else filed [01:34] slomo_: ah, ok then [01:34] Kamion: alright [01:34] slomo_: translate "n-c-b" for me pls :) [01:34] it's much more work to untangle multiple problems from one bug than it is to mark bugs as duplicates [01:34] pygi: nautilus-cd-burner [01:34] slomo_: oh, no, not really [01:35] pygi: and please don't get me wrong, i would love to change everything from using cdrecord to something sane... but not now :) [01:35] pygi: hmm, did you already talk with n-c-b upstream about this? [01:35] slomo_: no [01:37] slomo_: I'm not sure who exactly n-c-b people are as first point, and as second I'd like to approach them once libburn 1.0 is out [01:37] which at our current development speed with two and a half developers shouldn't take too much really [01:38] slomo_: is n-c-b based on cdrecord currently? [01:38] pygi: ok, that's good :) well, look at /usr/share/doc/nautilus-cd-burner/copyright ;) [01:38] slomo_: if so, you could easily talk it into using libburn (if it's based on cdrecord) [01:38] in edgy, yes... in debian it uses the debian cdrecord fork (forgot it's name) [01:38] wodim [01:38] right, wodim [01:39] slomo_: well, you can easily change it to use libburn without source code changes :) [01:40] slomo_: want instructions? :P [01:42] Kamion: bug 62772 [01:42] Malone bug 62772 in ubiquity "gparted shows no partitions, but a next button (which brings you to the partition-mountpoint screen)" [Undecided,Unconfirmed] http://launchpad.net/bugs/62772 [01:44] dholbach: http://librarian.launchpad.net/4536398/syslog gives a 403 [01:44] uh?

[01:48] slomo_: ofcourse not. libburn is a library :P [01:49] ogra: Will this new ltsp require an amd64/live rebuild too, or just amd64/install?

Now why doesn't autoremove flag it? :D [06:28] pitti: i was wondering, does the current pmount encrypted device mount magic ensure in some way that only the one that unlocked the device can actually mount it ? [06:28] jdong: autoremove may not work well for packages that used to be in minimal and aren't any more [06:28] Kamion: sure?

[06:31] elmo: don't know yet [06:31] elmo: I note that the licence claims to apply to use of the software (not merely distribution) [06:32] Kamion: I don't think that's a problem per se [06:32] Kamion: and I think this kind of patent termination is fine, it's the weakest form, and there are plenty of existing examples of stronger ones in main [06:32] yeah, I think it's a licence bug in that it goes beyond copyright, but it doesn't seem to impose anything obnoxious on userss [06:32] users [06:33] it does leave me wondering what patents apply to ironpython [06:33] yeah :( [06:34] and the package could be considered a derivative work, not the original, so per the licence wouldn't acquire patent rights [06:34] oh, it's not like it's from microsoft or anything [06:34] mvo_: Sorry, computer died.

[08:40] Stuff like firefox might look like it's frozen too... with white pieces on it from where you've moved windows [08:40] mdz: so we can either move the sluggish parts into the frontend, or change u-n to display an icon/notification/whatever while apport is grinding [08:40] that might look weird.. [08:41] mdz: we cannot do anything while the kernel dumps core, apport isn't yet called at that time (with the current kernel interface, this will get better in edgy+1) [08:41] mdz: but the gdb and dpkg parts are the major culprits, and they could be done in the frontend, too [08:42] pitti: firefox dumping core takes a long time [08:42] (it's just a matter of moving collect_static_information() from apport to apport-gtk [08:42] mdz: I agre [08:42] e [08:42] but if that's before apport is called, we can't do much for edgy [08:42] mdz: but as I said, ATM the kernel dumps core and then calls apport [08:42] right [08:43] gdb and dpkg in the frontend would address bug 62542 as well [08:43] Malone bug 62542 in apport "Apport should not do its expensive bits without user confirmation" [Low,Confirmed] http://launchpad.net/bugs/62542 [08:43] In Wiesbaden, BenC and I developed a better approach, but it's fairly different and not really appropriate to change at that time [08:43] since you could easily only do them if the user wants to make a full report [08:43] mdz: right, therefore my question whether you want to see it in edgy [08:44] is gutenprint safe to backport to dapper? [08:44] mdz: I can work on it today and tomorrow if desired (it's not intrusive, I just want to do a proper test suite check for it) [08:44] pitti: I'm less concerned about that than about the visibility to the user, but it sounds like they could both be solved at once, so that's fine with me [08:44] ok, great === pitti adds an edgy tag [08:45] ... milestone, rather [08:45] pitti: So you want me to implement my end? === tkamppeter [i=till@nat/mandriva/x-7d415bfe556b32e8] has joined #ubuntu-devel [08:45] BenC: I'd rather not for edgy [08:45] BenC: it took enough time to get the current patch right :) [08:45] BenC: I'll just move stuff within apport [08:46] ok [08:51] Riddell: any news on the ruby issue ?

[11:41] AlinuxSOS: perhaps it uses a font which looks very similar [11:41] AlinuxSOS: It's likely that they're the same glyphs but from different files [11:42] The terminal doesn't accept X fonts directly [11:42] AlinuxSOS: I don't see how you can test this unless someone builds a CD for you, which is a lot of work [11:42] mdz, no I recorgines them because I've worked a lot with BPG font designer. === gavins [n=gavin@CPE0016b6cf4510-CM000f9f551ed8.cpe.net.cable.rogers.com] has left #ubuntu-devel [] [11:43] mdz I think that I we correct unifont we correct everything..because in terminal mode there is the same font. [11:43] AlinuxSOS: I am highly confident that if I give you a unifont .deb and you install it, your console font will not change. [11:45] mdz, I can test it right now... [11:45] AlinuxSOS: if you would like to see who is right: http://people.ubuntu.com/~mdz/temp/unifont_1.0-3ubuntu1_all.deb [11:45] I install unifont and restart system. [11:45] I will wait with bated breath [11:46] mdz, ;) [11:46] mdz: That language-selector change should fix the issue for Georgian, though I may need to add a couple of fonts to the ttf-bpg-georgian-fonts package for full effect [11:46] Either way, I think they're correct - it mimics the config that people have been setting up manually and has no effect on non-Georgian setups [11:48] mjg59: I am not familiar with that stuff to judge at a glance whether it is correct, but it seems perfectly reasonable [11:49] mdz: The code will only be used if Georgian is selected by language selector [11:49] So the very worst it could do would be to have no effect, and the likely cause is that Georgian users stop complaining that their fonts look bad :) [11:50] mjg59: I think we have only one georgian user and he is very noisy [11:50] mdz: No, I've got reports from at least two more [11:50] Any objection to me uploading that, in any case? [11:50] mjg59: are they any more personable? [11:51] mjg59: if you tested it and it did what you expected, it's ok with me [11:51] mdz: Ok. Doing so now. [11:51] its harder for people whos first language isnt English :p === mjg59 looks forward to getting back to fonts that don't suck at 6 points === AlinuxOS [n=alinux@d83-176-14-113.cust.tele2.it] has joined #ubuntu-devel [11:52] Right, uploaded [11:52] mdz, there is still that crappy font :( [11:52] AlinuxOS: ! [11:53] AlinuxOS: As mdz said, it's unlikely that an X font will make any difference on the Linux console [11:54] you think that it's some BPG's font bitmap deformation ? === bronson [n=bronson@66.160.177.212] has joined #ubuntu-devel [11:54] AlinuxOS: no, it is exactly as I said before. they are two different fonts. [11:54] mdz: Oh, hm, one problem. [11:54] it really looks so crappy. [11:54] mdz: The language-selector.conf link doesn't seem to get regenerated on reconfigure. [11:55] Argh, fontconfig-voodoo [11:55] What could possibly go wrong === Fjodor [n=sune@0x55510b65.adsl.cybercity.dk] has joined #ubuntu-devel [11:55] mdz, I should investigate about that differen font...In Dapper there was white cubes instead of letters. [11:56] I think it somewhere here: /usr/share/fonts/X11/misc [11:56] AlinuxOS: No [11:57] AlinuxOS: X fonts are not used for the console [11:57] and where is console fonts location ? [11:57] I'll start remove one-per-one before I get white cubes... === jvw-bsp [n=jeroen@a-eskwadraat.nl] has joined #ubuntu-devel [11:58] so maybe I can find that crappy thing... [11:58] AlinuxOS: is your goal to fix the console or to fix the CD boot screen? [11:58] mdz: I believe that fontconfig-voodoo has behaviour that is less than optimal [11:59] mdz: In that it won't replace a link to /usr/share/language-selector/fontconfig/none even if there's now a locale-specific entry available [11:59] mdz, both (because they are the same font). I'l show you debian-installer portion. [11:59] AlinuxOS: They are *not* the same font [11:59] AlinuxOS: gfxboot comes from an X font. The console comes from a console font. [11:59] mjg59, not the same physically...but the same design... [11:59] AlinuxOS: They may look the same, but that doesn't mean that they're in the same package [12:00] AlinuxOS: Right. The fact that they're the same design is entirely irrelevent [12:00] mjg59, exaclty I mean that design is the same..but not package. [12:00] AlinuxOS: So they're not the same font === gardengnome [n=laga@217.160.107.117] has left #ubuntu-devel [] [12:01] AlinuxOS: I've spent over an hour trying to help you, but you won't listen to me [12:01] AlinuxOS: I'm going to have to get back to my work shortly [12:01] crimsun: Uh, did you mean to send that to mdz rather than me? [12:01] mdz: The stuff I've uploaded should make this work for new installs, but not for updates. I'll talk to mvo about the best way to deal with that. [12:01] It involves Python, so I'm not going to try to fix it myself [12:02] mjg59: would be a good plan to file a bug for him [12:02] mjg59: er? [12:02] mdz: Yeah, doing that now [12:02] crimsun: Oh, erm. Who did you mail your SRU to? [12:02] Oh, it's from Launchpad [12:02] Never mind [12:03] mjg59: will the X server reread its font directories to pick up new fonts, or does it need a restart? [12:03] mdz, http://img181.imageshack.us/my.php?image=debianinstalleryk5.png see here [12:03] mdz: fontconfig should deal [12:04] it's the same: ...letter "" is the same (other letter too) of gfxboot. [12:04] AlinuxOS: They are *not* the same font [12:04] mjg59, yes I understand :) [12:04] AlinuxOS: So showing us that they're both broken doesn't help [12:05] mjg59, yes they are broken in the same way..they have the same design. [12:05] AlinuxOS: Yes. We know that. That doesn't help us fix them in any way. [12:07] mjg59: xset fp rehash is what I want, but it doesn't work [12:07] it seems to bail out because some of the font path elements don't exist [12:07] what a piece of junk [12:07] mdz: xset fp rehash will only work with X core fonts [12:07] mjg59, so I must find both. Console one and Menu font too...cause both fonts need the same correction. [12:07] mdz: We don't even get our bitmap fonts from there now, unless you're using a legacy application [12:07] mjg59: like xterm? [12:07] mdz: Yeah [12:08] mjg59: that's the only way I can see to access this font [12:08] it doesn't use defoma or any of that jazz [12:08] good night [12:08] mdz: dpkg-reconfigure -plow fontconfig and enable bitmap fonts [12:08] it just drops it in an X font dir and runs mkfontdir
