theCore | is there different policies in Ubuntu debian/rules than Debian? | 12:30 |
Laser_away | nope | 12:31 |
theCore | ok, thanks | 12:32 |
theCore | in the install rule should I test for root, with dh_testroot? | 12:34 |
theCore | or I just do a distclean | 12:35 |
Laser_away | dh_testroot is fine I think | 12:35 |
theCore | nevermind, I just misread my diff | 12:36 |
theCore | while I trying to fix a bug, is it correct to merge some the changes from Debian? | 12:39 |
theCore | or, should I just keep it the minimum | 12:40 |
Laser_away | try to keep divergence to a minimum, but if we need it, we need it | 12:40 |
theCore | what if there's some real ugliness in the rules file? | 12:41 |

=== jdong bangs head on desk | ||
theCore | I don't know why but I find packaging quite fun | 12:49 |
crimsun | jdong: I respectfully disagree regarding backporting being managed by one person. Although I definitely encourage you to seek ubuntu-dev membership to alleviate the bottleneck in processing backports, backports really need to be confirmed by a majority of the team members. | 12:50 |
jdong | crimsun: me too... there used to be a more active backporting team, but they've all gone their directions | 12:51 |
jdong | the whole way backports is done needs to be re-hashed | 12:51 |
jdong | maybe I'll add that to TB instead | 12:51 |
crimsun | currently core-dev can upload to dapper-backports, so that's not a bottleneck | 12:53 |
gnomefreak | is there a how to for nackports | 12:53 |
crimsun | I'm happy to elide the team into a sort of de facto ubuntu-backports-sponsors | 12:53 |
gnomefreak | backports* | 12:53 |
jdong | gnomefreak: take an edgy package, add "~dapper1" to the version, and send it through a dapper pbuilder | 12:56 |
jdong | gnomefreak: the hours and hours of work is in making sure those packages work | 12:56 |
jdong | and even with those hours one person can still let things slip through | 12:56 |
jdong | *cough* flashplayer *cough* :( | 12:56 |
crimsun | ...which should /not/ have been backported. It should have gone into -security. | 12:57 |
Laser_away | is there a way to use something like -proposed? | 12:57 |
Laser_away | or is that adding too many layers | 12:57 |
jdong | Laser_away: unofficial backports had a proposed (staging) repo | 12:57 |

joejaxx | Toadstool: do you build meta-packages? | 02:41 |
Toadstool | joejaxx: er, why? | 02:41 |
joejaxx | i have built one but i have a question about it | 02:41 |
Toadstool | just ask :) | 02:42 |
joejaxx | ok | 02:42 |
joejaxx | well i was looking at the ubuntu-meta package | 02:42 |
joejaxx | and i followed the same format for the fluxbuntu-meta package | 02:42 |
joejaxx | but during build time i get warning | 02:42 |
joejaxx | like that | 02:43 |
joejaxx | dpkg-gencontrol: warning: unknown substitution variable ${fluxbuntu-desktop:Depends} | 02:43 |
joejaxx | like this* | 02:43 |
Toadstool | hmm, wait, having a look at ubuntu-meta | 02:43 |
joejaxx | instead of putting that variable there should i just put the depends? | 02:45 |
theCore | where does dh_installman should be called? | 02:45 |
theCore | in install or binary-arch? | 02:46 |
Toadstool | joejaxx: look at how the ubuntu-$$package:Depends substitution vars are generated in ubuntu-meta debian/rules | 02:46 |
joejaxx | ok | 02:46 |
Toadstool | the for loop in build-stamp: target | 02:46 |
joejaxx | oh | 02:48 |
joejaxx | so now i have to create fluxbuntu-* seeds? | 02:49 |
joejaxx | or should i just replace the variables with the real depends? | 02:50 |
Toadstool | hmm... dunno | 02:50 |
Toadstool | do you know exactly what Depnds you want? | 02:51 |
joejaxx | yeah | 02:51 |
joejaxx | but it seems that that build-stamp way is better | 02:51 |
joejaxx | because it pulls from the seed list | 02:51 |
joejaxx | so all you have to do is update the seed list | 02:52 |
Toadstool | and use germinate | 02:53 |
Toadstool | which is done by the update script in ubuntu-meta afaik | 02:54 |
joejaxx | well there is no such thing as fluxbuntu-* seeds right now | 02:55 |
joejaxx | so i think it whould just be better to manually have the depends in there | 02:57 |
Toadstool | joejaxx: seeds are just text files in a bzr branch -> http://people.ubuntu.com/~cjwatson/seeds/ | 03:01 |
theCore | what the recommended optimization flag? -Os or -O2 | 03:02 |

Toadstool | dunno, there must be some kind of option for germinate | 03:09 |
joejaxx | oh ok | 03:09 |
joejaxx | actually i think there is | 03:09 |
joejaxx | where is germinate called in this process? | 03:10 |
Toadstool | joejaxx: it's not automatically called | 03:11 |

=== twanj [n=chatzill@c-66-176-118-121.hsd1.fl.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
micahcowan | bddebian, I think all expert C users have learned to hate scanf(). | 04:52 |
micahcowan | scanf() isn't very good for restricting input characters in a string. To do it, you have to specify the limiting number of characters... as a string. So when that upper limit needs to be dynamic... well, it kinda sucks. | 04:55 |
bddebian | micahcowan: What's a better way? gets(), getch()? | 04:55 |
micahcowan | bddebian, gets() is evil. Never use it for anything. | 04:56 |
micahcowan | Probably fgets() or similar. I'll typically use fgets() or something, and then I might use sscanf() if I wanted more interesting conversions... | 04:56 |
bddebian | What is the diff between scanf() and sscanf()? | 04:56 |
micahcowan | sscanf() scans a string instead of stdin. | 04:57 |
theCore | how much changes I'm allowed to do in debian/ past the freeze? | 04:57 |
theCore | bddebian, I saw an article once about using scanf() securely | 04:58 |
theCore | maybe I could find it | 04:59 |
=== zul [n=chuck@CPE0006258ec6c1-CM000a73655d0e.cpe.net.cable.rogers.com] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
micahcowan | I've very few uses for scanf(), actually: strtol() and the like give much better error-handling for numeric conversions, and most of the time I can just search for the end of whatever other token I might want. the character classes can occaisionally be handy, though. | 05:00 |
micahcowan | *I've found very few... | 05:00 |
=== freeflying [n=freeflyi@ubuntu/member/freeflying] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
theCore | hmm, it seems a better solution is using fgets with sscanf | 05:01 |
theCore | but, then you still need to check for malicious input | 05:02 |
bddebian | micahcowan: So what do you use to get user input? | 05:03 |
=== pschulz01 [n=paul@202.174.42.5] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
pschulz01 | G'day... | 05:04 |
micahcowan | bddebian, usually fgets(), and then process the resulting string. If I can assume GNU, then I might use getline() instead. | 05:05 |
Toadstool | bddebian: users?! since when do C programmers care about users? :) | 05:05 |
=== bddebian kills himself | ||
micahcowan | readline() if I want fancier capabilities | 05:06 |
pschulz01 | I am looking at libgphoto2-2.2.1 documentation. I would like to submit a patch, but there are three different documentation types present (lyx,sgml,txt). Anyone have any idea what the 'real' documentation is? | 05:06 |
pschulz01 | The 'sgml' file says that it was generated by lyx. | 05:07 |
pschulz01 | I'm guessing that it's the lyx file then, | 05:08 |
theCore | bddebian, how about this? char buffer[21] ; fgets(buffer, 20, stdin); if (strchr(buffer, '\n')) {(*(strchr(buffer, '\n'))) = '\0';} | 05:08 |
bddebian | What happens if I input 22 chars? | 05:09 |
theCore | it will only read the first 20 | 05:09 |
theCore | including the \n | 05:10 |
theCore | so, only 19 will be read | 05:10 |
bddebian | Are you sure? I did a similar thing with scanf() and it overflows the buffer | 05:10 |
theCore | pretty much | 05:10 |
micahcowan | scanf() is built that way. Note that fgets() specifically takes a size argument. | 05:10 |
bddebian | So does scanf() supposedly, if I use scanf( "%10s", foo ) | 05:11 |
micahcowan | However, whatever's left over will still be left in stdin, so you have to flush it out (/not/ with fflush()) by reading until the newline. | 05:11 |
micahcowan | That shouldn't have overflowed the buffer if foo was size 11 or more... | 05:11 |
bddebian | foo = malloc (sizeof (char) * 11) | 05:11 |
micahcowan | sizeof (char) is always 1 | 05:12 |
bddebian | Yes | 05:12 |
bddebian | I know that was a stupid way to do it :) | 05:12 |

theCore | ajmitch, I don't think so | 06:04 |
imbrandon | theCore, ahh well thats a bit more than "cleaned up the rules" heh | 06:05 |
theCore | ajmitch, I used debian version as a reference for fixing the bug | 06:05 |
ajmitch | so you plan to fork the packaging from what debian has? | 06:05 |
theCore | imbrandon, I'm not done yet, though | 06:05 |
theCore | imbrandon, I still have to correct debian/*.{dirs,files} | 06:06 |
imbrandon | theCore, ok i'm missing something here, its not orphaned in debian but your changing it from debian ? | 06:06 |
theCore | imbrandon, it's orphaned in Ubuntu | 06:06 |
theCore | the package is libming | 06:07 |
ajmitch | I see | 06:07 |
imbrandon | theCore, there is no sense of orphaning in Ubuntu, we all maintain all packages as a group, and if its maintained in debian it cant be orphaned as we sync from them | 06:07 |
ajmitch | theCore: have you looked at the 'ming' source package in debian? | 06:07 |
theCore | there also errors in the Debian version | 06:07 |
theCore | ajmitch, yea | 06:07 |
theCore | *yes | 06:08 |
ajmitch | we strongly discourage people from doing random forks of debian packaging | 06:08 |
imbrandon | theCore, great , this is one of the times then you make a patch and send it upstream to the debian maintainer | 06:08 |
ajmitch | it duplicates work & causes friction | 06:08 |
imbrandon | yea what ajmitch said | 06:08 |
theCore | imbrandon, that's what I want to | 06:08 |
ajmitch | theCore: you said it hasn't been updated for a year - ming was last updated about 8 weeks ago in debian | 06:08 |
theCore | ajmitch, do you know why it haven't been sync'ed? | 06:09 |
ajmitch | because we have upstream version freeze early in the edgy cycle which applies across the whole distro for stopping of autosyncs | 06:09 |
ajmitch | hence anything from the main UVF until universe freeze had to be manually synced | 06:10 |
=== lastnode [n=lastnode@unaffiliated/mahangu] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
theCore | ajmitch, well, it been a year, that's before edgy started... | 06:11 |
imbrandon | he just said it was updated 8 weeks ago | 06:11 |
imbrandon | thats not | 06:11 |
joejaxx | ajmitch: man i hope i have no missed the feature freeze | 06:12 |
joejaxx | not* | 06:12 |
imbrandon | joejaxx, yea by quite a bit | 06:12 |
ajmitch | joejaxx: oh we're well past feature freeze for edgy | 06:12 |
imbrandon | the release schedule is in the topic bro | 06:12 |
joejaxx | oh nevermind | 06:13 |
joejaxx | universe has nothing to do with the feature freeze | 06:13 |
ajmitch | no, but we have universe freeze as of a week ago | 06:13 |
imbrandon | yea but universe freeze is here too | 06:13 |
theCore | the other problem is that Debian changed the name of the package | 06:13 |
theCore | in Debian, libming is called just ming | 06:14 |
joejaxx | imbrandon: so i should be compiling for edgy+1? | 06:14 |
imbrandon | joejaxx, yea but edgy+1 is edgy atm | 06:14 |
imbrandon | same toolchain | 06:14 |
joejaxx | i guess i waited to long | 06:14 |
theCore | that is back to oct. 15 2005 | 06:15 |
theCore | that's probably why it haven't been sync'ed | 06:15 |
joejaxx | imbrandon: i guess i am going to have to keep fluxbuntu-* in the fluxbuntu repos until edgy+1 | 06:15 |
theCore | ajmitch, does auto-sync handle name changes? | 06:16 |
bddebian | Gnight folks | 06:17 |
imbrandon | theCore, what 2 packages are you talking about | 06:17 |
imbrandon | gnight bddebian | 06:17 |
joejaxx | goodnight bddebian | 06:17 |
theCore | imbrandon, libming | 06:17 |
theCore | imbrandon, in Debian, it's `ming' | 06:18 |
theCore | since the name change, it haven't been updated | 06:18 |
ajmitch | theCore: again, the name change was after the syncs stopped | 06:19 |
imbrandon | [2006-07-05] Accepted 1:0.3.0-6 in unstable (low) (Stuart R. Anderson) | 06:19 |
imbrandon | thats AFTER the syncs stoped | 06:19 |
imbrandon | it will go next sync round | 06:19 |
ajmitch | probably only just aftre | 06:19 |
theCore | so, what should I do? | 06:21 |
joejaxx | imbrandon: may i pm you? | 06:22 |
imbrandon | joejaxx, i dont mind | 06:22 |
imbrandon | theCore, file a sync request and have a MOTU ack it or wait till auto syncing starts again | 06:22 |
theCore | is there a place that explains how to do that? | 06:24 |
imbrandon | theCore, last url in the topic | 06:24 |
theCore | imbrandon, thanks | 06:25 |
ajmitch | nice | 06:26 |
ajmitch | autopkgtest in the NEW queue | 06:26 |

=== lastnode_ [n=lastnode@unaffiliated/mahangu] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
theCore | does posix regex is allowed in debian/*.files | 06:31 |
theCore | ok, I think I will send the patch to upstream, then request a sync | 06:42 |
theCore | but for now, I need to sleep | 06:42 |
theCore | cya all | 06:42 |
LaserJock | hmm, I really need learn how to blog :/ | 06:47 |
ajmitch | LaserJock: ? | 06:49 |
LaserJock | they're really long and boring | 06:50 |
ajmitch | nah, they're not boring | 06:50 |
ajmitch | put it on planet already | 06:50 |
ajmitch | oh good, it is :) | 06:50 |
imbrandon | yea ajmitch where is yours , finaly got LaserJock on it;) | 06:54 |
ajmitch | imbrandon: I'm too boring to blog | 06:54 |
LaserJock | bah | 06:55 |
imbrandon | heh | 06:55 |
LaserJock | you're not boring at all | 06:55 |
ajmitch | I have nothing to blog about, at least :) | 06:57 |
LaserJock | hmm, I think I've often got too much to blog about | 06:57 |
LaserJock | I have to watch it | 06:57 |
LaserJock | especially after the whole gallium thing | 06:58 |
LaserJock | people actually take these planet posts seriously | 06:58 |
imbrandon | gallium ? | 06:58 |
ajmitch | another reason why I avoid blogging | 06:58 |
imbrandon | did you read the last post from ian basicly saying joey was full of sh*t | 06:59 |
ajmitch | hm, good post by SynRG about ichthux & ubuntu CE | 07:01 |
LaserJock | I thought so | 07:01 |
LaserJock | imbrandon: I saw that | 07:01 |
LaserJock | imbrandon: last weekend there was a little "incident" with Edubuntu and KDE-Edu over a little project a few of us were working on | 07:02 |
ajmitch | imbrandon: no, I didn't see it | 07:02 |
imbrandon | ajmitch, its still on p.d.o i think | 07:02 |
imbrandon | LaserJock, ahh | 07:02 |
LaserJock | it was rather intense there for a couple days | 07:03 |
ajmitch | imbrandon: ian murdock? | 07:03 |
imbrandon | ajmitch, yea | 07:03 |
=== ajmitch refuses to comment on that whole mess :) | ||
LaserJock | isn't he the guy who started Debian? or am I thinking of somebody else | 07:04 |
imbrandon | ajmitch, http://ianmurdock.com/?p=358 | 07:04 |
imbrandon | LaserJock, yea is is the deb"ian" in debian | 07:04 |
imbrandon | his better half is debbie , e.g the "deb"ian ;) | 07:05 |
LaserJock | right, that's what I thought | 07:05 |
LaserJock | what does he do these days on Debian? | 07:05 |
imbrandon | he works on LSB alot iirc | 07:05 |

LaserJock | I like how you get to know a package, and it's more about packaging and less about the next freeze | 07:29 |
imbrandon | LaserJock, exactly | 07:29 |
=== StevenK thinks he prefers the Debian of a few years ago, where every second sentence wasn't "Ubuntu sucks" | ||

LaserJock | If you can avoid the politics I think Debian is a rather nice place to be | 07:30 |

LaserJock | I'd rather make changes in Debian in the first place and not have to worry about it again in Ubuntu | 07:36 |

ajmitch | joejaxx: it's in the topic | 07:44 |
imbrandon | first url in the topic joejaxx | 07:44 |
ajmitch | EdgyReleaseSchedule | 07:44 |
joejaxx | no not that | 07:45 |
joejaxx | i mean future wise :) | 07:45 |
joejaxx | that has a list of the current ones | 07:45 |
imbrandon | other than that just hang out and learn the way, the next release schedule will be worked out dirring UDS Moutain View | 07:45 |
ajmitch | generally every 6 months | 07:45 |
=== robitaille [n=daniel@ubuntu/member/robitaille] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
joejaxx | ajmitch: imbrandon i mean the developmental releaases | 07:46 |
joejaxx | like knots | 07:46 |
joejaxx | or flights like there were in dapper | 07:46 |
ajmitch | that will be worked out in the future | 07:46 |
imbrandon | those are on the release schedule, but thats worked out in UDS | 07:46 |
joejaxx | so there is no way to know when edgy beta 2 is coming so i can prepare to release in sync? | 07:47 |
ajmitch | there won't be a beta 2 | 07:48 |
imbrandon | there is no beta 2, but RC is on the schedule for the 19th | 07:48 |
joejaxx | imbrandon: ok that is what i meant | 07:48 |
joejaxx | :) | 07:48 |

=== imbrandon yawns | ||
imbrandon | hrm i wonder how hard it would be to make a ubuntu seed and livefs from scratch the "ubuntu way" | 08:00 |
imbrandon | somehow i dont think there is doc's about it online | 08:00 |
TheMuso | imbrandon: What do you want to do? | 08:01 |
imbrandon | TheMuso, just learn how to make a proper deritive ( not just customize a already made cd ) | 08:01 |
imbrandon | no real "goal" | 08:02 |
TheMuso | Fair enough. | 08:02 |
TheMuso | It would be nice to know. | 08:02 |
imbrandon | yea, at leaste the process behind it all | 08:02 |
=== imbrandon starts digging a little | ||
LaserJock | imbrandon: what do you want to know? | 08:15 |
LaserJock | and how "from scratch" do you want to go? | 08:15 |
imbrandon | from bootstraping the base install on up | 08:16 |
imbrandon | but anystart would be good | 08:16 |
LaserJock | hmm, well from scratch you can as Kamion for some scripts they use | 08:16 |
LaserJock | the ones I've been involved with started with an existing .iso and then changed it from within | 08:17 |
imbrandon | yea i planned to once i got a little more edgucated about it so i dident goto him and say "duh duh can you .,.,. blah blah blah" | 08:17 |
nixternal | people are alive this late at night? | 08:17 |
LaserJock | as you already have the casper stuff | 08:17 |
imbrandon | LaserJock, yea i have customized the iso before | 08:17 |
LaserJock | well, there is customized as in change some artwork | 08:18 |
nixternal | ya, and he wanted me to go buy a dvd burner so i could try his iso out | 08:18 |
LaserJock | and then there is customized like we do with Ichthux | 08:18 |
imbrandon | no as in removed oo.o , all the default settings, more packages etc | 08:18 |
imbrandon | i did a imbrandon version of kubuntu with no oo.o and koffice instead with all the meadia codecs etc | 08:19 |
imbrandon | ;) | 08:19 |
imbrandon | plus new artwork ;) | 08:19 |
LaserJock | in Icthux we have -deskto, -docs, -default-settings | 08:19 |
nixternal | and he tried to burn it to LP | 08:19 |
imbrandon | LaserJock, yea but how do you then generate the isos | 08:19 |
imbrandon | from those | 08:19 |
LaserJock | ok, the basic idea is: | 08:20 |
LaserJock | get the .iso | 08:20 |
LaserJock | unpack it | 08:20 |
imbrandon | oh so the custom way | 08:20 |
LaserJock | chroot into the unpacked squashfs | 08:20 |
imbrandon | not the ubuntu way | 08:20 |
imbrandon | right , yea thats how i did it | 08:20 |
LaserJock | well, sort of | 08:20 |
LaserJock | it's somewhat in between | 08:20 |
imbrandon | ahh | 08:20 |
LaserJock | we then change the initrd | 08:20 |
LaserJock | the scripts that set up the livecd user | 08:21 |
LaserJock | install -desktop, etc. meta packages | 08:21 |
LaserJock | in the future though I think we are going to the Ubuntu way | 08:21 |
imbrandon | right i'm with you so far | 08:21 |
LaserJock | it's more complicated | 08:21 |
imbrandon | ok yea i have done that ( the way your doing it now ) | 08:22 |
LaserJock | but it's a little more satisfying | 08:22 |
imbrandon | hehe yea | 08:22 |
imbrandon | i'm at the same point | 08:22 |
LaserJock | I believe Kamion gave raphink a script | 08:22 |
LaserJock | for doing it the Ubuntu way | 08:22 |
LaserJock | but there is still quite a bit that uses the Ubuntu infrastructure | 08:23 |
imbrandon | cool | 08:23 |
ajmitch | the s3kr3t sauce | 08:23 |
LaserJock | so it's not easy to just "do it the Ubuntu way" | 08:23 |
ajmitch | kamion has stuff in his bzr branches for this | 08:23 |
LaserJock | as they use a fair amount of Soyuz magic I think | 08:23 |
ajmitch | debian-cd & related stuff | 08:23 |
LaserJock | apparently sometime "soon" Soyuz might start supporting derivatives | 08:24 |
imbrandon | do they use make-live ? | 08:24 |
ajmitch | LaserJock: 'soon' has been said for awhile now | 08:24 |
LaserJock | yes | 08:24 |
LaserJock | well, it sounded like early 2007 | 08:25 |
LaserJock | I think Ichthux might be a test derivative | 08:25 |
LaserJock | at least the LP guys were interested in that | 08:25 |
imbrandon | ;) | 08:26 |
imbrandon | well i wouldent mind helping out joejaxx get on his feet ( i dont think i could make a long term commitment to it ) but i dont want to put the time into customizing the iso , it seems to hackish to me | 08:26 |
imbrandon | thats one reason for me to learn BUT i would also just liek to "know" | 08:27 |
imbrandon | like* | 08:27 |
LaserJock | yeah, I know what you mean | 08:27 |
LaserJock | we get questions about .iso customization all the time | 08:27 |
LaserJock | it'd be nice to have a least some clue | 08:27 |
imbrandon | although i do know what you mean, i did do that for my own dapper kubuntu live cd | 08:27 |
imbrandon | as far as unpacking the squashfs , the initrd , the package changes etc etc | 08:28 |
TheMuso | Then there is the fun of casper. | 08:28 |
imbrandon | but thats not really a /good/ solution for repition as i'm sure your finding out with itc* | 08:29 |
imbrandon | ( sorry for got the name heh ) | 08:29 |
LaserJock | actually, it isn't too bad | 08:30 |
LaserJock | we have a lot of it automated | 08:30 |
imbrandon | cool | 08:30 |
LaserJock | we have a standard initrd and a script that updates the manifest files | 08:31 |
imbrandon | nice | 08:31 |
LaserJock | you spend more time unpacking and packing | 08:31 |
imbrandon | yea , that takes a while | 08:32 |
LaserJock | and transferring the .iso to mirrors | 08:32 |
imbrandon | well not tooooo long but a good while | 08:32 |
imbrandon | mostly the repacking | 08:32 |
imbrandon | torrents ;) | 08:32 |
LaserJock | bah | 08:32 |
imbrandon | i thought about making the codec enhanced kubuntu avail via torrent | 08:33 |
imbrandon | since its kinda iffy in some places ;) | 08:33 |
imbrandon | brb | 08:34 |
LaserJock | bah, who needs codecs :-) | 08:34 |
LaserJock | people shouldn't be listening to music or watch movies anyway | 08:34 |
LaserJock | they should be fixing bugs and contributing packages to REVU | 08:34 |
ajmitch | or to Debian | 08:34 |
imbrandon | hehe | 08:34 |
ajmitch | although I do listen to music while packaging ;) | 08:35 |
TheMuso | I listen to music, but its from my own CDs in FLAC format. | 08:35 |
imbrandon | yea i dont think i could sit at the computer without tunes cranked | 08:35 |
imbrandon | about 70% is from my own cd's 10% from itunes , and the rest from "arround" | 08:35 |
imbrandon | heh | 08:36 |
LaserJock | I have a lot of .mp3s ripped from CDs | 08:36 |
LaserJock | but I convert them to ogg if I play them in linux usually | 08:36 |

ajmitch | scary stuff - vista RC2 in vmware | 08:40 |
ajmitch | will my computer be powerful enough ? ;) | 08:40 |
LaserJock | yucky | 08:40 |
ajmitch | oh that's wonderful | 08:41 |
ajmitch | it doesn't have a driver for the vmware cd drive | 08:41 |
imbrandon | heh | 08:41 |
imbrandon | somehow that seems interntional | 08:42 |
ajmitch | wouldn't surprise me in the least | 08:42 |
ajmitch | I don't really feel like installing it on a real system | 08:42 |
LaserJock | yeah, it's like these silly bootcamp people that got all excited when you could dual boot Windows and OS X | 08:42 |
imbrandon | i have rc1 on the computer upstairs dualbooting | 08:43 |
LaserJock | I couldn't belive you'd want to go down in OS quality ;-) | 08:43 |
ajmitch | LaserJock: MS do have some useful ideas | 08:43 |
LaserJock | I guess, I just find things work a whole lot better in Ubuntu | 08:43 |
ajmitch | of course | 08:44 |
ajmitch | I don't plan to use it for any real work | 08:44 |
imbrandon | ;) | 08:44 |
LaserJock | if I was more into different areas of computing I'm sure I could see more uses | 08:44 |
LaserJock | but mostly I want ssh, web browser, good printing, laptop support, and good music/video stuff | 08:45 |
LaserJock | all of which Ubuntu does much better | 08:45 |
LaserJock | my wife even seems to like it after I got here FF bookmarks back and the form completion set up | 08:47 |
LaserJock | *her | 08:47 |
imbrandon | ;) | 08:49 |
LaserJock | I wonder what the vista hardware requirements are | 08:50 |
=== StevenK notes LaserJock just said he was going to bed. | ||
LaserJock | I read about it a long time ago for longhorn | 08:51 |
LaserJock | yes, well | 08:51 |
LaserJock | I took my shower and the wife went to bed | 08:51 |
LaserJock | I'm supposed to be working | 08:51 |

StevenK | IRC is work, isn't it? | 08:51 |
StevenK | Isn't it?! | 08:51 |
ajmitch | yes, StevenK, of course it is... | 08:52 |
StevenK | Heh | 08:52 |
LaserJock | have any of you used dak? | 08:52 |
ajmitch | not that brave | 08:53 |
=== StevenK has submitted one small patch | ||
LaserJock | do you see it as really very useful for the normal user/sys admin? | 08:53 |
LaserJock | it seems a bit overkill to me | 08:53 |
imbrandon | LaserJock, falcon is alot easier for normal every day repos ( less than 300 packages ) | 08:54 |
LaserJock | falcon? I've not heard of that | 08:54 |
LaserJock | I've seen reprepo and mini-dinstall | 08:54 |
imbrandon | Seveas made it for his repos but me and a few others use it now, its really nice, handles mirrors auto etc etc etc | 08:55 |
StevenK | LaserJock: No. dak is .... hardcore | 08:55 |
StevenK | reprepro and mini-dinstall both suck, I've tried to use both of them. | 08:55 |
StevenK | We use apt-move at work, and that's a little archaic. | 08:56 |
LaserJock | StevenK: what do you suggest to people then? | 08:56 |
LaserJock | or do they all just suck ;-) | 08:56 |
StevenK | dpkg-scanpackages | 08:56 |
imbrandon | falcon you just make your /pool and run falcon update sync, all done | 08:56 |
imbrandon | ;) | 08:56 |
LaserJock | imbrandon: is that publically available? | 08:57 |
Lathiat | apt-cache show falcon | 08:57 |
imbrandon | LaserJock, yea check any of Seveas's mirros ( http://seveas.imbrandon.com ) in the extras component , or in edgy+1 universe hehe | 08:57 |
imbrandon | mirrors* | 08:57 |
LaserJock | hmm | 08:57 |
imbrandon | http://seveas.imbrandon.com/pool/dapper-seveas/extras/falcon_1.5.4-0ubuntu1_all.deb | 08:58 |
imbrandon | supports multi arch,multi components ( even one for each app if you want ) | 09:00 |
imbrandon | etc etc etc, and a good doc | 09:00 |
imbrandon | to get ya going, but it takes a whole 5 minutes to setup | 09:00 |
imbrandon | real simple to setup and maintain ( and its python heh ) | 09:00 |
imbrandon | and if you find bugs its easy to poke seveas to fix it hehe | 09:01 |
imbrandon | LaserJock, have you seen http://live.debian.net/wiki/ISO_Howto | 09:10 |
LaserJock | hmm, interesting | 09:13 |
imbrandon | hrm and it links to http://live.debian.net/wiki/live-package telling howto do the casper and all | 09:13 |
ajmitch | ok, I think I've got the cdrom driver needed - apparantly it's partly a vmware problem | 09:14 |

siretart | thanks, fine | 09:21 |
siretart | and you | 09:21 |

siretart | does Martin Juergens irc? do anyone know him? | 09:24 |
ajmitch | siretart: yes, we need 2 approvals afaik | 09:25 |
=== ajmitch hasn't looked at them for a few hours | ||
siretart | I was a bit puzzled if we require 2 advocates for complete new packages from marillat as well | 09:26 |
ajmitch | hm | 09:27 |
ajmitch | probably yes | 09:27 |
siretart | I assume so. and this martin juergens has filed quite some request for such packages | 09:27 |
ajmitch | gtk2-formfactory, etc? | 09:27 |

LaserJock | in his vast brain | 09:45 |
StevenK | Heh | 09:45 |
StevenK | Probably stored in a text file in his tmpfs | 09:46 |
highvoltage | hi. it /opt/ltsp could be placed somewhere else, with FHS in mind, where would you put it? /usr/share/ltsp? | 09:46 |
highvoltage | s/FHS/FSH | 09:46 |
LaserJock | hmm, I might actually go with /var perhaps | 09:46 |
highvoltage | as in, /var/lib/ltsp? | 09:47 |
LaserJock | maybe just /var/ltsp | 09:47 |
ajmitch | http://ajmitch.net.nz/debuild/ubuntu/unmet/unmet.txt | 09:47 |
ajmitch | it hasn't been updated today | 09:48 |
LaserJock | the thing with ltsp is that it changes, right? | 09:48 |
ajmitch | & wsa annotated with a few comments | 09:48 |
highvoltage | LaserJock: usually, with Ubuntu, the LTSP chroot is build from scratch at installation | 09:48 |
highvoltage | LaserJock: but for tuXlabs I want to make a prebuild chroot and put it into a package | 09:48 |
highvoltage | LaserJock: I think once the chroot exists it won't change much | 09:49 |
LaserJock | if it's static it could go in /usr/share I suppose | 09:49 |
highvoltage | a user might chroot into the environment and add/remove stuff though | 09:50 |
LaserJock | that's not so good for /usr/share/ | 09:50 |
LaserJock | or a package for that matter | 09:50 |
Yagisan | highvoltage, from experience users do chroot in to change things | 09:50 |
LaserJock | dpkg likes to keep track of files | 09:51 |
=== highvoltage ponders a bit | ||
Yagisan | highvoltage, considering it could even be a differnet distro - perhaps /opt really is the best place for it | 09:51 |
highvoltage | /opt is nice because then it is also consistent with upstrem ltsp | 09:51 |
highvoltage | but I remember ogra once saying that's it's not the ideal place to have it | 09:52 |
=== MagnusR [n=magru@c83-250-59-127.bredband.comhem.se] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
StevenK | Policy forbids packages to touch /opt. | 09:52 |
highvoltage | he mentioned where it would have been if we had a choice but I've forgotten :) | 09:52 |
highvoltage | yes, I did that previously and lintian gave lots and lots of warnings for each file :) | 09:52 |
Yagisan | StevenK, policy doesn't consider a package might install a distro - which is what ltsp does | 09:52 |
StevenK | Of course not, there's no precedent for it | 09:53 |
Yagisan | there is now ... | 09:53 |
StevenK | Then bugs against Policy should be filed | 09:53 |
highvoltage | what if I put a tarball in the package, and the postinst would extract it? | 09:53 |
highvoltage | that's a terrible hack, isn't it? | 09:53 |
Yagisan | highvoltage, it is. your ltsp - is it Ubuntu based ? if so - perhaps script it to download and install in the postinst ? | 09:54 |
LaserJock | where will the tarball extract to? | 09:55 |
highvoltage | LaserJock: I guess that could safely extract to /opt? | 09:55 |
LaserJock | yeah | 09:56 |
LaserJock | are you packaging it to avoid bandwith usage, i.e. computers without internet or bad internet connections? | 09:56 |
highvoltage | that, and to save installation time | 09:57 |
highvoltage | builting the ltsp chroot is quite time consuming atm | 09:57 |
highvoltage | I'd also like a nice and quick way for users to add ltsp, and remove it again | 09:58 |
highvoltage | well, more for our technicians in the end than the end-users, I suppose | 09:58 |
Yagisan | highvoltage, takes about 5-10 minutes to build the ltsp chroot here (all packages are in the cache so doesn't include download time) | 10:03 |
highvoltage | can you currently build a chroot from the live cd install too? | 10:04 |
highvoltage | extracting the tarball only takes about 2 minutes here :) | 10:04 |
highvoltage | I think I'll take the approach of using a tarball, extracting to /opt, and when upgrading LTSP, the old /opt/ltsp will just be removed before a new tarball is extracted there. | 10:05 |
highvoltage | or not... sorry, I think I'll think about it and ask around some more :) | 10:06 |
highvoltage | Yagisan, LaserJock, StevenK: thanks for your input and insight | 10:06 |
LaserJock | so you wipe out people's existing chroot upon upgrade? | 10:06 |

highvoltage | LaserJock: that's what I thought about just after pressing enter after I mentioned that | 10:08 |
highvoltage | the best way really seems to be how ubuntu currently does it, but this will be a problem that red hat, suse, etc will have to deal with too while they use the ubuntu ltsp chroot, until they have their own meukow sorted out. | 10:08 |
highvoltage | I don't expect our users to /really/ change the chroot | 10:09 |
=== janm [n=jmalonzo@ppp4592.dsl.pacific.net.au] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
highvoltage | those who add packages could perhaps do a --get-selections and do a dselect-upgrade in the new chroot | 10:10 |

Yagisan | tseng, none of the plugins have a SONAME version. Will that be a problem ? | 05:33 |
tseng | Yagisan: possibly | 05:36 |
tseng | if yo uwant to treat them as libraries | 05:37 |
tseng | if they are plugins to a single app, I guess it doesnt matter | 05:37 |
Yagisan | tseng, they are for a single application (no one yet has taken the challenge of writing another engine for them). Thanks for your advice. | 05:38 |
tseng | i wouldnt package them as libraries if they are not | 05:39 |

superm1 | joejaxx, there is a limited about of automation you can get for your packaging via debhelper or cdbs | 07:17 |
superm1 | if you haven't read the ubuntu packaging guide, you should take a look | 07:17 |
joejaxx | superm1: i do not want the automation | 07:18 |
superm1 | well debhelper just helps to build a skeleton | 07:18 |
superm1 | for the packaging | 07:18 |
superm1 | its a good start | 07:18 |
joejaxx | i am happy with the debian new maintainer's method :) | 07:18 |
Laser_away | they use debhelper I believe | 07:20 |
superm1 | Hi LaserJock | 07:20 |
joejaxx | i do not remember ever running that command | 07:20 |
joejaxx | :\ | 07:20 |
superm1 | moot point then if that was the case | 07:20 |
LaserJock | what command? | 07:21 |
LaserJock | dh_make? | 07:21 |
kristog | yes the new maintainer guide uses debhelper | 07:21 |
joejaxx | it does? | 07:22 |
LaserJock | yes | 07:22 |
joejaxx | interesting | 07:22 |
LaserJock | you really do want to use debhelper at least | 07:23 |
kristog | http://www.us.debian.org/doc/maint-guide/ch-dreq.it.html#s-rules | 07:23 |
LaserJock | otherwise you are making too much work for yourself | 07:23 |

kristog | what you mean with DNMG? | 07:25 |
joejaxx | Debian New Maintainers Guide | 07:25 |
kristog | yes it is | 07:26 |
superm1 | it has a few ubuntu specific things in it | 07:26 |
LaserJock | kristog: no, I wrote an Ubuntu Packaging Guide | 07:26 |
superm1 | and explains how to use revu | 07:26 |

LaserJock | well, I had help and pulled from many sources | 07:27 |
LaserJock | !packagingguide | 07:27 |
ubotu | The packaging guide is at http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/packagingguide/C/index.html Other developer resources are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DeveloperResources | 07:27 |
LaserJock | !REVU | 07:27 |
ubotu | REVU is a web-based tool to give people who have worked on Ubuntu packages a chance to "put their packages out there" for other people to look at and comment on in a structured manner. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Packages/REVU | 07:27 |
LaserJock | hmm | 07:27 |
JohnnyMast | thaks laser :_ | 07:27 |
LaserJock | that should also point to revu.tauware.de | 07:27 |
joejaxx | ahh it ok | 07:27 |
joejaxx | is* | 07:27 |
joejaxx | -ok | 07:27 |
LaserJock | the packaging guide is also shipped with Dapper and Edgy in the help system | 07:29 |

Snake[Away] | Hey guys, if anyone has a moment, could you tell me, should I start building on Edgy or Dapper? I havn't built anything before, and i'm following this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HowToBuildDebianPackagesFromScratch -- Good or bad? | 09:56 |
Snake[Away] | or is there a better | 09:56 |
Snake[Away] | Because it seems that one is a bit dated (horay) | 09:57 |
Snake[Away] | hoary* | 09:57 |
crimsun | Build on Dapper if your target is Dapper. Build on Edgy if your target is Edgy. | 09:57 |
crimsun | where "build on foo" means "use a foo pbuilder" | 09:57 |
Snake[Away] | Oh so I dont need to install the diffrent OSes or whatever? | 09:58 |
Snake[Away] | I can build for edgy on dapper? | 09:58 |
crimsun | certainly. | 09:58 |
Snake[Away] | great | 09:58 |
Snake[Away] | is it more difficult? heh | 09:58 |
crimsun | pbuilder? It's a cinch. | 09:58 |
ajmitch | it'll be harder to test afterwards though | 09:58 |
ajmitch | hello crimsun | 09:58 |
ajmitch | how's it going? | 09:58 |
crimsun | hi ajmitch | 09:58 |
Snake[Away] | Ah good point ajmitch .. | 09:58 |
crimsun | not bad, yourself? | 09:59 |
ajmitch | alright | 09:59 |
Snake[Away] | Im sure I can find someone on edgy that can test though | 09:59 |
BazziR | Snake: what sort of software are you building? | 09:59 |
Snake | crimsun: do you have a more updated guide than the one I linked to? (I assume times have changed?) | 09:59 |
Snake | BazziR: Not sure ye | 09:59 |
Snake | t | 09:59 |
crimsun | Snake: the packaging guide on help.ubuntu.com? | 10:00 |
Snake | Just a few practice packages and whatnot | 10:00 |
Snake | crimsun: well the one I linked to was on the wiki, but like I said, its dated from hoary | 10:00 |
Snake | Ohhhh | 10:00 |
Q-FUNK | Snake: the methodology remains the same regardless of which release you make your packages for. | 10:00 |
Snake | Okay :) | 10:00 |
BazziR | http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/packagingguide/C/index.html <- I think that#s the most recent/comlete guide | 10:01 |
Snake | This is what I was lookin for: https://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/packagingguide/C/index.html :) | 10:01 |
Snake | BazziR: thanks hehe | 10:01 |
BazziR | :o | 10:01 |
Snake | is the KDE/Gnome building the same way? | 10:01 |
BazziR | you mean having those as dependencies? | 10:02 |
BazziR | or using them as desktops generally? | 10:02 |
Snake | No I mean I don't have to have a diffrent program or somethign to build for KDE | 10:02 |
Snake | then ahve a diffrent program to build for gnome | 10:02 |
Snake | right? | 10:02 |
BazziR | no it's all console-based | 10:02 |
Q-FUNK | he means if there's any extra work involved in building GUI apps. | 10:02 |

Snake | Bazzi: Basically | 10:04 |

imbrandon | cvacubo, you have already made the package ? | 11:13 |
cvacubo | imbrandon, yes. | 11:14 |
imbrandon | cvacubo, have you ever used REVU ? or know about it? ( if not i can explain it ) but that would be the first step after the package is made | 11:14 |
cvacubo | But I don't know what I need to do ? I need to upload that package to REVU ? | 11:14 |
imbrandon | if its new to ubuntu | 11:14 |
imbrandon | cvacubo, yes REVU would be the next step | 11:14 |
cvacubo | I read about REVU, but I don't understand, I need dput my package and thats all ??? | 11:15 |
cvacubo | Or what ? | 11:15 |
imbrandon | well first you have to join the LP team | 11:15 |
imbrandon | have you done that ? | 11:15 |
cvacubo | Yes, this package new for Ubuntu. This package suggested in Kubuntu.org | 11:15 |
imbrandon | ok add your self to this team http://tinyurl.com/fgpgy | 11:16 |
cvacubo | LP Team? This is a Launchpad ? | 11:16 |
imbrandon | yes | 11:16 |
imbrandon | once you are on that team then you/me/we can ping a REVU admin to sync the keyring, then you can dput to REVU | 11:17 |
imbrandon | for a MOTU to review it and upload | 11:17 |
Toadstool | cvacubo: you will need a GPG key too | 11:18 |
cvacubo | imbrandon, one moment please. I want check my Launchpad login... | 11:18 |
imbrandon | cvacubo, yes i dident look at your LP page but if you dont have a GPG key you will need to create one and upload that to your LP profile | 11:18 |
imbrandon | first | 11:18 |
cvacubo | imbrandon, I have GPG key and send this key to Launchpad. And I joined to "Contributors of packages for ubuntu universe" | 11:19 |
cvacubo | Yes I uploaded in my LP profile and signed Code of conduct | 11:20 |
imbrandon | ok good | 11:20 |
cvacubo | My LP login Artem Abramyan. Nickname Cvacubo | 11:20 |
imbrandon | now we need to ask a REVU admin to sync the keyring, aj^mitch is probably not arround right now but siretart might be | 11:20 |
imbrandon | siretart, ping | 11:20 |
imbrandon | ( if not i'll look on the list to see whom else is a REVU admin ) | 11:21 |
cvacubo | siretart, ping ??? What is this ? Sorry, my english is so bad | 11:21 |
crimsun | (to note raphink, gauvain, and sispoty are also admins) | 11:21 |
crimsun | (and mez, too) | 11:21 |
imbrandon | cvacubo, it means i'm trying to get his attentian | 11:21 |
imbrandon | attention* | 11:21 |
Toadstool | gauvin is a REVU admin? I didn't know that, good news :p | 11:22 |
Toadstool | *gauvain even | 11:22 |
imbrandon | i have a tiber login but i have no idea how to sync the keyring heh | 11:22 |
crimsun | Toadstool: yep | 11:22 |
cvacubo | After sync the keyring I need to dput my package ? | 11:22 |
imbrandon | cvacubo, yup | 11:23 |
cvacubo | imbrandon, thanks a lot. | 11:23 |
imbrandon | then it will be on the list for all MOTU's to revu and give you input or possibly upload | 11:23 |
imbrandon | ( note the universe is in a freeze right now but its still good to go though the processes and get it ready ) | 11:23 |
cvacubo | Now I need find REVU admins and ask for sync keyring ? | 11:23 |
imbrandon | cvacubo, yes , all have been "pinged" e.g. their name hilighted so next chance one of them gets it will be done | 11:24 |
imbrandon | best to just wait arround and chat/learn/idle/etc , its just waiting now | 11:24 |
