=== ajmitch will be back in an hour or so
LaserJockwell, I was going to try to do some dapper-updates uploading12:59
LaserJockbut got sucked into MOTU Management ;-)12:59
zuloh you know you like it01:01
LaserJockI do01:02
LaserJockbut it takes time away01:02
LaserJockfrom other things01:02
zulthank god the week is nearly over01:02

LaserJockzul: you going to be around for a little bit?01:22
zulLaserJock: ill be in and out there is a hockey game on tv01:23
LaserJockheh, ok01:24
LaserJockI'm working on a wiki page that I'd like a little MOTU feedback on01:24

zuler..on even01:30
LaserJockcrimsun: I think I asked if we have a -updates policy for MOTU like StableReleaseUpdates01:30
crimsunLaserJock: not that I'm aware, but it would be in our best interest to mimick it01:31
LaserJockyes01:31
LaserJockok, have a look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JordanMantha/MotuManagement01:32
LaserJockI'd like to pick out specific problems/issues01:33
LaserJockI know there are some pretty general ones01:33
crimsun(attempting. My connection is horrible atm wrt jitter.)01:33
crimsunthe list looks good. Imo concentrating on prioritised tasks based on the development cycle [timetable]  would be most fruitful. Doing so would help resolve the policy documentation issue, and it would play nicely with a 'management infrastructure.'01:37
zuli think the motu school sessions and the recruiting goes hand in hand01:39
LaserJockwell01:39
zulbut thats just me01:40
LaserJockI really need to split up the recruiting01:40
LaserJockas there are several issues there01:40
zultrue01:40
LaserJockI'm going to try to get as many specific problems/solutions as I can01:40
zulalso i think people might be intimitated by the steep learning curve01:40
LaserJockand then categorize and prioritize them01:40
zulotherwise looks good to me so far01:41
LaserJockany specific things you guys would like to add/subtract?01:41
=== Tonio_ [n=tonio@94.8.100-84.rev.gaoland.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu
zulim not really for the focused teams bit01:42
LaserJockyeah, that's why I'm trying to put pros and cons01:42
LaserJockso we can look at the potential solutions01:42
LaserJockand se what we want to go for01:42
zuli think there might be too much for one manager maybe a commitee01:42
LaserJockI personally have liked having the MOTU Science01:43
crimsunI think teams are useful; we tend to gravitate toward team-based maintenance, but I concur teams aren't necessarily the most dire point(s).01:43
LaserJockbut I'd be really concerned about sort of splitting up of MOTU and what happens to packages that don't belong to a particular team01:43
LaserJockbottom line, I feel like teams should play a definate role in MOTU but they should grow naturally and not be forced01:44
zulwhatever happened to the mentoring?01:45
LaserJockinitially I got 3 or 401:45
LaserJockand then they dropped off01:45
LaserJockand I haven't gotten any since01:45
zulah01:45
LaserJockI think we need to really figure out what we want to do there01:46
LaserJockwe didn't really push MOTU Mentoring01:46
LaserJockand perhaps I didn't do a very good job of it ;-)01:46
crimsunthe reservation I have concerning mentoring is that it tends to reinforce 'MOTU know everything'01:47
LaserJockyep01:47
LaserJockI'm really struggling with that01:47
LaserJockjust because I'm a MOTU doesn't mean I know everything about package XYZ01:47
lophyteno, but you could definitely point a mentee in the right direction to find out info about package XYZ01:48
lophyteI'd assume anyway01:48
LaserJocksure01:48
crimsunour MOTU pool is essentially the active forum folks01:48
LaserJocklophyte: but in that case, why have a Mentor when #ubuntu-motu or ubuntu-motu ML works for that01:49
crimsunif people will assist us in identifying those folks [who are actively creating their own packages] , we also make some headway into recruiting01:49
crimsunI think people have worked with quinn-storm, for instance01:50
LaserJockyes01:50
LaserJockI find there are a lot of people that are mantaining 3rd party repos/packages01:50
lophyteubuntu-motu ML?01:51
lophyteoh01:51
lophytenm01:51
LaserJockheh, sorry01:51
lophytetook me a sec to get the acronym :P01:51
LaserJockI'm not opposed to MOTU Mentors by any means01:51
lophyteI think having mentors are a good idea because then you have one person who gets to know you...01:51
LaserJockbut I think we need to look at various "building MOTUs" projects01:51
LaserJockand look at effectivness and efficiency01:52
lophyteI mean, if I use the channel and ML to point me in the right direction.. I might ask person A something today, and a week later ask person B.. and person B will have no idea about my previous experience01:52
lophytewhereas with mentors... the mentor knows what the mentee has done in terms of MOTU work01:52
LaserJockright, and they might also give you a different answer01:52
lophyteyeah01:52
zulmaybe look at recruiting in the forums01:52
LaserJockI did a little of that with my MOTU School session01:53
LaserJockgot a few people to show up01:53
lophyteI personally like the idea of the teams as well01:53
lophyteI feel more motivated when I know there's others working with me on something.. like yesterday when a few of us said we wanted to tackle unmet deps together01:53
LaserJockbut to be honest. I don' think I've had a single MOTU Hopeful come out of my MOTU Mentoring or MOTU School sessions01:53
lophytewhat's the definition of hopeful, anyway?01:54
lophytelike, what differs a hopeful from someone who's interested in becoming a MOTU but doens't have any experience01:54
LaserJocksomebody who is working there way towards MOTUship01:54
lophyteah01:54
LaserJocksome people really have no intention of becoming a MOTU01:54
LaserJockI  would call them contributors in general01:55
LaserJockHopefuls are saying, I want to seriously become a MOTU and am working in that direction01:55
lophyteI'd call myself a hopeful by a longshot, but a hopeful nonetheless01:55
LaserJocksure01:58
lophyteI think you're right when you (or whoever it was) said that newcomers will be most confused when they join mid-release01:58
LaserJockso the question is, how effective is MOTU Mentors and MOTU School in producing MOTUs01:58
LaserJockthey are both pretty time intensive so if they aren't working we shouldn't be wasting effort01:59
lophyteno idea, actually01:59

LaserJockhi Fujitsu02:11
FujitsuHi LaserJock.02:12
Fujitsumaxima works, yay.02:12
crimsunexcellent02:12
FujitsuI had a look at the gcl fixes since Dapper...02:12
FujitsuThey're absolutely enormous.02:12
crimsunI think lj found a missing if () or something02:12
LaserJockyeah, it was a missing "else"02:13
LaserJockI think02:13
zulwhat the hell is maxima02:13
FujitsuThat was a regression from Dapper, I believe.02:13
Fujitsuzul, a Computer Algebra System.02:13
zulah02:14
FujitsuThe diff for -21 (I think that was the version of the socket error fix) doesn't apply to the Dapper version, that line of code was completely rewritten. The bug was introduced when that code was rewritten.02:14
LaserJockFujitsu: hmm, well I looked at that line and the only difference was a missing "else"02:14
FujitsuDapper has -14, right?02:15
LaserJockright02:15
=== Fujitsu fires up laptop... I've got the various versions on there.
FujitsuWhat is with maxima? The .orig.tar.gz is 7.8MB, the diff.gz is like 14MB!02:16

FujitsuI don't believe so02:17
LaserJockah02:18
LaserJockit's almost entirerly from a binutils dir02:18
FujitsuThe socket write error fix was -20 -> -21... A single line change, adding an else.02:18

=== nixternal [n=nixterna@ubuntu/member/nixternal] has joined #ubuntu-motu
LaserJockso I wonder if putting gcl -21 into -updates would make archive-admin throw a fit02:24
ajmitchwhy would it?02:25
LaserJockit's a rather large diff02:25
LaserJockand we only want a small fix I think02:25
Fujitsu_LaserJock, it would make everybody collapse and die, I think.02:25
LaserJockI just don't see how we are going to seperate that out02:25
LaserJockfinding a fix for -14 that happened in -2102:26
Fujitsu_It's really non-trivial to locate, the diff is gargantuan.02:26
LaserJockthe tracking of -14 to -20 is the problem02:26
Fujitsu_The fix in -21 ONLY affects the code from after -14.02:26
Fujitsu_That bug was introduced when the line was rewritten.02:26
minghuaif that's the case, why doesn't dapper work already?02:27
Fujitsu_There must be another bug.02:27
LaserJockoh man02:27
LaserJockhow do you know it only affects the code after -14?02:27
Fujitsu_The issue fixed in -21 is that the second bit was ALWAYS executed.02:27
LaserJockk, that makes sense02:28
=== shawarma_ [n=sh@vega.linux2go.dk] has joined #ubuntu-motu
LaserJockso it was after they rewrote that line?02:28

Fujitsu_Anybody up for wading through 53881 lines of diff?02:30
LaserJocknot I02:30
minghuaLOL02:30
LaserJockif it was just maxima I wouldn't have a problem with grabing the edgy version02:30
ajmitchFujitsu_: that's a bit of a silly question02:30
LaserJockall maxima frontends are completely useless at the moment02:31
Fujitsu_LaserJock, exactly... But it's not :(02:31
LaserJockso it can only get better ;-)02:31
=== Tonio_ [n=tonio@40.8.100-84.rev.gaoland.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu
LaserJockbut gcl might effect other things02:31
LaserJockI'd hate for us to introduce a regression02:31
LaserJockalthough ...02:31
LaserJockthe packages in dapper would actually have to be rebuilt to have a problem with a new gcl02:32
LaserJockalthough ...02:32
LaserJockhaving a different version of gcl than what the packages were built on is a little creepy02:32
ajmitch& is quite usual02:33
LaserJockbut it is -updates so people can still have the gcl version that was shipped with Dapper easily enough too02:33
LaserJockbah, this stinks02:33
=== gnomefreak [n=gnomefre@ubuntu/member/gnomefreak] has joined #ubuntu-motu
Fujitsu_I'm looking through the diff.02:35

Plugmy problem exactly!04:44
PlugI should pose it as a 5 min Python problem for Isomer04:44
Plughe loves those04:44
minghuait's written for your APT cache, called "apt-get autoclean", but I don't know how for an arbitrary dir04:45
StevenKapt-get autoclean uses its lists to determine which versions to keep.04:45
Plug"apt-get autoclean removes only package files that can no longer be downloaded."04:45
minghuayeah, apt-get autoclean is actually different04:46
minghuait uses the Release file instead of looking which one is the newest04:46

ajmitchStevenK: no, I don't think I would10:36

FujitsuHow likely is it that a backported fix for gcl will get into Dapper, fixing the (w)xmaxima-doesn't-work-at-all bug? I believe it comes under the `severe regressions' category on StableReleaseUpdates, and a large number of people have asked for it to be fixed...10:43
ajmitchask dholbach when he's back - we don't have a set policy at the moment for universe updates10:44
FujitsuOK.10:44
ajmitchI'll happily support it if the fix is small & sane10:45
FujitsuI've finally isolated the gcl patch... Death to all 58000-line diffs!10:45
FujitsuYeah, 3 modifications, 5 insertions.10:45
ajmitchit may be that the uvf team ends up handling -updates as well10:45

Fujitsu(ajmitch said you're the person to ask)10:46
ajmitchdholbach: apparantly mdz is fine with MOTUs sorting out something amongst ourselves for -updates10:47
Fujitsuajmitch, that's a good idea.10:47
ajmitchwe've just not really had anything formal in place, like the UVF team10:47
dholbachajmitch: anything specific you're referring to?10:47
ajmitchdholbach: pushing stuff to dapper-updates10:47
dholbachyeah... anything specific?10:47
ajmitchgcl, as Fujitsu is asking10:47
dholbachah ok10:47
dholbachajmitch: it'd be nice if we'd get stuff tested10:48
ajmitchyep10:48
ajmitchthat's somewhat critical10:48
FujitsuOf course.10:48
ajmitch07:47 < LaserJock> mdz: ^^? or do you want MOTUs to decide that?10:48
ajmitch07:48 < mdz> LaserJock: the latter10:48
ajmitch07:49 < mdz> though I strongly recommend using StableReleaseUpdates or something very close to it10:48
ajmitchin response to a question about the SRU policy10:48
FujitsuIt'd be nice if StableReleaseUpdates actually said it was for main/restricted only.10:49
dholbachwe should decide on a workflow10:49
dholbachand add notes to wiki/SRU once we decided it10:50
ajmitchI think Laser_away is calling for a MOTU meeting sometime soon10:50
FujitsuAnyway... gcl needs a very small (3 modifications, 5 insertions) patch backported, and maxima needs a rebuild, and (w)xmaxima's unworkiness is fixed.10:50
dholbachdo -updates build against -updates?10:52
ajmitchafaik they do10:53
FujitsuI'd presume they would.10:54
ajmitchbut I don't know how many libs or similar we've had through updates to test that10:54

cucohi, i am building a package for ubuntu, which needs to create some mysql tables. on debian, i used the extra file: debian.cnf. this does not work on ubuntu. any ideas whay can i do...?02:44
cucothe question is, how do i install sql tables from postinst scripts ...?02:44
freeflyingcuco: debconf?02:45
cucodebconf is just the way to ask the user some questions. it does not help me in this place.02:45
cuco..right...?02:45
kristogcuco: right! use postinst02:45
cucoyes, i am doying this on the post install...02:45
cucobut... if the user has a root password for the mysql server this will fail..02:46
kristogcould you paste it somewhere02:46
lionelpcuco: it is not nice to use the debian.cnf file02:46
cucothis is why (at least on debian etch and sarge) you have an extra configuration file, which can be used to override the permissions02:46
lionelpcuco: you should ask a root password in your postinst with debconf02:46
cucolionelp: that ugly ... :(02:47
kristogcuco: uhm ok, you have 2 solution 1) use debconf for know the pw 2) write a script and put it in /doc02:47
lionelpwhy ?02:47
lionelpyour package is not necessary on the mysql server02:47
cucowhat do you mean, not on the mysql server...?02:48
cucojust be be sure: the debian.cnf files does not work on ubunut02:48
kristogyour package is useful without the mysql server?02:48
cucono02:48
lionelpyour application is not always set up on the machine that run the mysql server ?02:48
cucothe application,works best on the server which runs the mysql server02:49
cucothe application,works best on the machine running the mysql server (not native english speaker, sorry)02:49
lionelpwhy best ?02:50
lionelpWhat kind of application it is ? Most of applications that use mysql can use it through the network02:50
cucofreepbx02:50
cucothis is an asterisk configuration web interface02:51
lionelpcuco: okay, I know it02:51
cucolionelp: the packages i wrote, work on sarge and etch. now i am trying to install them on ubuntu.02:52
cuco(mc is in universe...? wow...)02:52
lionelpIn that case, I see no reason why the system where freepbx is installed should have the privilege to create a database on the server02:52
lionelp(yes mc is in universe)02:53
cucothen how will it work..? this means that the package (by default) will depend on an external mysql server02:53
kristogcuco: if you don't need the server i guess you will need the client02:53
kristog(at last)02:54
lionelpno nee for the server absolutely02:54
lionelpyou only depends on php*-mysql module02:54

cucolionelp: that is a package dependency. the gui still needs to store it's data.02:56
lionelpcuco: a package dependance on mysql-server ?02:57
cucoyes, a virtual-mysql-server is supported, which means you don't have to install the sql server on trhe same machine.02:57
cucobut i want to support the trivial scenario, in which a user "apt-get install freepbx" - and evrything works.02:57
lionelpcuco: it is only for your needs or for distributing ?02:58
cucoanyway, only the grant command fails. all other commands (create, and the newinstall.sql) work.02:58
cucolionelp: lets start with the easy scenario, me02:58
lionelpcuco: ok, you better know your needs than me ;)02:58
cucook, lets ask again, a more specific question:02:59
lionelpcuco: the user in debian.cnf has no right to do the grant02:59
lionelpthat is absolutely right02:59
cucook, how do i workarround this...?02:59
cuco(asking the root password via debconf)03:00
lionelpcuco: or change the rights for the user in debian.cnf (i would not do) or ask the password via debconf03:00
cucochanging the rights of the user in debian.cnf is non standard, not a good idea. debconf seems the best way...03:01
lionelpcuco: agree03:01
cucook, cool. lets say i have the packages working, what should i do to get them into ubuntu...?03:02
lionelpcuco: hum... wait Edgy+1 :)03:03
lionelpwe are now in Freeze due to the proximity of the release03:03
cucook. not a problem for me.03:03

sistpotyhi superm1, lophyte05:52
superm1sistpoty, perhaps you could help with a question for me.  The old myth packaging produced a mythtv-debug package by using dh_strip on all the libraries.  I'm reluctant to bring this up to the newer packaging because the newer packaging has a --compile-type=debug option which I'm thinking does more then just leave debugging symbols.  What is the appropriate thing to do in this case?05:54
=== lupine_85 [n=lupine@nick.lupine.me.uk] has joined #ubuntu-motu

superm1how do we phase out the current mythtv-debug package then?05:57
superm1its a version behidn the version of the rest of the suite and un-necessary at this point05:58
sistpotysuperm1: just drop it in debian/control and remove the --dbg from dh_strip (or s.th. like that)... that should imo do the trick05:59
superm1well its not currently listed in debian/control, but it is still available through apt, just the old version shows up06:00

sistpotyLaserJock: not currently... but I'll think about it ;)06:25
sistpotyyes06:25
LaserJockthe thing I think would be important though06:25
LaserJockis to seperate the MOTU Manager from the higher level technical stuff (UVFe team, etc.)06:26
LaserJockwhat tends to happen is really good MOTUs get more and more put on them06:26
LaserJockand then they have to choose between the technical work and the community work06:26
sistpotyLaserJock: that06:27

superm1hey guys, how would I add an app into an edgy pbuilder that I dont want the package normally depending on?08:33
superm1just for some local testing08:33
LaserJockhmm, you want it to depend on it now though?08:33
superm1well its pkg-create-dbgsym08:34
superm1it creates debug symbols08:34
superm1it will eventually be active in LP, but packages dont need to depend on it08:34
superm1it diverts dh_strip to do so08:34
LaserJockok, so you just want it installed in your pbuilder?08:34
superm1right08:34
LaserJockwell, you could do a pbuilder login08:35
superm1so i can change the base.tgz from that login then huh?08:35
LaserJockcp the pkg-create-dbgsym .deb into the chroot and the source package you want to build08:35
LaserJockthen build it inside the chroot08:36
superm1oh interesting08:36
superm1didn't realize you could actually chroot into a pbuilder08:37
superm1is there a way to make that more permanent, so that if I wouldn't have to chroot to do my builds, but could just queue them up with pbuilder build and still have pkg-create-dbgsym installed in the pbuilder?08:39
LaserJockyou could cp the pbuilder base.tgz08:40
LaserJockthen do a login08:40
LaserJockhang on a sec08:41
jdongsuperm1: make a backup of the base.tgz, then do pbuilder login --save-after-login08:41
jdongsuperm1: install the package, exit, and now base.tgz will be recreated with the changes you made08:42
superm1changes will only be lost then after pbuilder update right?08:42
jdongsuperm1: no, changes will not be lost until you restore your backed up base.tgz!08:42
jdongit permanently taints your pbuilder08:42

LaserJockyeah, that's what I was going to say08:44
LaserJock;-)08:44
superm1hehe08:44
LaserJockI was just reading man pbuilder08:44
LaserJockto make sure I had it right08:44
LaserJockand then somebody called the lab08:44
superm1so when pkg-create-dbgsym goes active on LP, will it become part of the base package then possibly?08:45
LaserJock--extrapackages08:45
LaserJockmight be cool too08:45
superm1oh --extrapackages would probably be the good way to do it, especially if i can just throw it in a pbuilderrc08:46
jdonghmm, yeah, if it's in apt already, extrapackages mgiht be a better plan08:46
jdongI thought it was a self-rolled deb08:46
LaserJockyes08:46
superm1yea pitti pushed to get this finished up by edgy time08:46
superm1supposed to make debugging a lot easier08:47
LaserJockfor self-rolled --save-after-login seems better08:47

LaserJockI rejected it with a pleasant little note10:53
LaserJockthat's really irritating10:55
LaserJockthose maxima bugs have plauged me since right before dapper was released10:55
LaserJockand then they say "What do you ignore us, you suck", it really motivates me to fix it that's for sure ;-)10:56

theCoreis it possible to sync packages from Debian past the freeze?11:50
ajmitchtheCore: new packages?11:50
theCoreno11:50
ajmitchanything new or that has a new upstream revision needs the UVF team's approval11:51
ajmitchif it's just a new debian revision, go ahead11:51

theCorethe debian version is newer than the one in Ubuntu11:52
ajmitchpreferably one of the motu media people11:52
superm1does a new debian revision need a UVFe then, or just a debdiff?11:52
