theCoreis there different policies in Ubuntu debian/rules than Debian?12:30
Laser_awaynope12:31
theCoreok, thanks12:32
theCorein the install rule should I test for root, with dh_testroot?12:34
theCoreor I just do a distclean12:35
Laser_awaydh_testroot is fine I think12:35
theCorenevermind, I just misread my diff12:36
theCorewhile I trying to fix a bug, is it correct to merge some the changes from Debian?12:39
theCoreor, should I just keep it the minimum12:40
Laser_awaytry to keep divergence to a minimum, but if we need it, we need it12:40
theCorewhat if there's some real ugliness in the rules file?12:41
theCorelike calling ln -s twenty times12:42

theCoreI don't know why but I find packaging quite fun12:49
crimsunjdong: 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
jdongcrimsun: me too... there used to be a more active backporting team, but they've all gone their directions12:51
jdongthe whole way backports is done needs to be re-hashed12:51
jdongmaybe I'll add that to TB instead12:51
crimsuncurrently core-dev can upload to dapper-backports, so that's not a bottleneck12:53
gnomefreakis there a how to for nackports12:53
crimsunI'm happy to elide the team into a sort of de facto ubuntu-backports-sponsors12:53
gnomefreakbackports*12:53
jdonggnomefreak: take an edgy package, add "~dapper1" to the version, and send it through a dapper pbuilder12:56
jdonggnomefreak: the hours and hours of work is in making sure those packages work12:56
jdongand even with those hours one person can still let things slip through12:56
jdong*cough* flashplayer *cough* :(12:56
crimsun...which should /not/ have been backported. It should have gone into -security.12:57
Laser_awayis there a way to use something like -proposed?12:57
Laser_awayor is that adding too many layers12:57
jdongLaser_away: unofficial backports had a proposed (staging) repo12:57
jdongofficial backports doesn't12:57
Laser_awaythere's unofficial backports?12:57
=== gnomefreak would like to play with that see if i cant get hang of it. so only dapper pbuilder is needed no edgy one?

Toadstooljoejaxx: er, why?02:41
joejaxxi have built one but i have a question about it02:41
Toadstooljust ask :)02:42
joejaxxok02:42
joejaxxwell i was looking at the ubuntu-meta package02:42
joejaxxand i followed the same format for the fluxbuntu-meta package02:42
joejaxxbut during build time i get warning02:42
joejaxxlike that02:43
joejaxxdpkg-gencontrol: warning: unknown substitution variable ${fluxbuntu-desktop:Depends}02:43
joejaxxlike this*02:43
Toadstoolhmm, wait, having a look at ubuntu-meta02:43
joejaxxinstead of putting that variable there should i just put the depends?02:45
theCorewhere does dh_installman should be called?02:45
theCorein install or binary-arch?02:46
Toadstooljoejaxx: look at how the ubuntu-$$package:Depends substitution vars are generated in ubuntu-meta debian/rules02:46
joejaxxok02:46
Toadstoolthe for loop in build-stamp: target02:46
joejaxxoh02:48
joejaxxso now i have to create fluxbuntu-* seeds?02:49
joejaxxor should i just replace the variables with the real depends?02:50
Toadstoolhmm... dunno02:50
Toadstooldo you know exactly what Depnds you want?02:51
joejaxxyeah02:51
joejaxxbut it seems that that build-stamp way is better02:51
joejaxxbecause it pulls from the seed list02:51
joejaxxso all you have to do is update the seed list02:52
Toadstooland use germinate02:53
Toadstoolwhich is done by the update script in ubuntu-meta afaik02:54
joejaxxwell there is no such thing as fluxbuntu-* seeds right now02:55
joejaxxso i think it whould just be better to manually have the depends in there02:57
Toadstooljoejaxx: seeds are just text files in a bzr branch -> http://people.ubuntu.com/~cjwatson/seeds/03:01
theCorewhat the recommended optimization flag? -Os or -O203:02

Toadstooldunno, there must be some kind of option for germinate03:09
joejaxxoh ok03:09
joejaxxactually i think there is03:09
joejaxxwhere is germinate called in this process?03:10

micahcowanbddebian, I think all expert C users have learned to hate scanf().04:52
micahcowanscanf() 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
bddebianmicahcowan: What's a better way? gets(), getch()?04:55
micahcowanbddebian, gets() is evil. Never use it for anything.04:56
micahcowanProbably fgets() or similar. I'll typically use fgets() or something, and then I might use sscanf() if I wanted more interesting conversions...04:56
bddebianWhat is the diff between scanf() and sscanf()?04:56
micahcowansscanf() scans a string instead of stdin.04:57
theCorehow much changes I'm allowed to do in debian/ past the freeze?04:57
theCorebddebian, I saw an article once about using scanf() securely04:58
theCoremaybe I could find it04:59
=== zul [n=chuck@CPE0006258ec6c1-CM000a73655d0e.cpe.net.cable.rogers.com] has joined #ubuntu-motu
micahcowanI'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
theCorehmm, it seems a better solution is using fgets with sscanf05:01
theCorebut, then you still need to check for malicious input05:02
bddebianmicahcowan: So what do you use to get user input?05:03
=== pschulz01 [n=paul@202.174.42.5] has joined #ubuntu-motu
pschulz01G'day...05:04
micahcowanbddebian, usually fgets(), and then process the resulting string. If I can assume GNU, then I might use getline() instead.05:05
Toadstoolbddebian: users?! since when do C programmers care about users? :)05:05
=== bddebian kills himself
micahcowanreadline() if I want fancier capabilities05:06
pschulz01I 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
pschulz01The 'sgml' file says that it was generated by lyx.05:07
pschulz01I'm guessing that it's the lyx file then,05:08
theCorebddebian, how about this? char buffer[21] ; fgets(buffer, 20, stdin); if (strchr(buffer, '\n')) {(*(strchr(buffer, '\n'))) = '\0';}05:08
bddebianWhat happens if I input 22 chars?05:09
theCoreit will only read the first 2005:09
theCoreincluding the \n05:10
theCoreso, only 19 will be read05:10
bddebianAre you sure?  I did a similar thing with scanf() and it overflows the buffer05:10
theCorepretty much05:10
micahcowanscanf() is built that way. Note that fgets() specifically takes a size argument.05:10
bddebianSo does scanf() supposedly, if I use scanf( "%10s", foo )05:11
micahcowanHowever, 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
micahcowanThat shouldn't have overflowed the buffer if foo was size 11 or more...05:11
bddebian foo = malloc (sizeof (char) * 11)05:11
micahcowansizeof (char) is always 105:12
bddebianYes05:12
bddebianI know that was a stupid way to do it :)05:12

imbrandontheCore, ok i'm missing something here, its not orphaned in debian but your changing it from debian ?06:06
theCoreimbrandon, it's orphaned in Ubuntu06:06
theCorethe package is libming06:07
ajmitchI see06:07
imbrandontheCore, 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 them06:07

theCorethere also errors in the Debian version06:07
theCoreajmitch, yea06:07
theCore*yes06:08
ajmitchwe strongly discourage people from doing random forks of debian packaging06:08
imbrandontheCore, great , this is one of the times then you make a patch and send it upstream to the debian maintainer06:08

theCoreajmitch, do you know why it haven't been sync'ed?06:09

StevenKLaserJock: ajmitch is just glutton for punishment.07:28
ajmitchStevenK: same goes for you :P07:29
LaserJockI like how you get to know a package, and it's more about packaging and less about the next freeze07:29
imbrandonLaserJock, exactly07:29
=== StevenK thinks he prefers the Debian of a few years ago, where every second sentence wasn't "Ubuntu sucks"
ajmitchsince with 2-3 years between releases, who needs to freeze?07:29
joejaxxlol07:29
LaserJockIf you can avoid the politics I think Debian is a rather nice place to be07:30
ajmitchit's somewhat depressing seeing what happens in debian at times07:30
StevenKajmitch: Agreed.07:30
TheMusoI'd apply for DD too if it didn't take as long07:32
=== StevenK didn't take too long to become a DD. :-P

LaserJockI've never hear of doing it that fast07:34
=== imbrandon is content working on ubuntu and letting debian worry about the changes, i'll present them to sponsors , if they take them cool, if not , their loss , but i'm not jumping through hoops
StevenKWhat I hate is how Ubuntu has to change to suit Debian.07:35
LaserJockI'd rather make changes in Debian in the first place and not have to worry about it again in Ubuntu07:36
ajmitchTheMuso: it involves money & beer07:36

=== imbrandon yawns
imbrandonhrm i wonder how hard it would be to make a ubuntu seed and livefs from scratch the "ubuntu way"08:00
imbrandonsomehow i dont think there is doc's about it online08:00
TheMusoimbrandon: What do you want to do?08:01
imbrandonTheMuso, just learn how to make a proper deritive ( not just customize a already made cd )08:01
imbrandonno real "goal"08:02
TheMusoFair enough.08:02
TheMusoIt would be nice to know.08:02
imbrandonyea, at leaste the process behind it all08:02
=== imbrandon starts digging a little
LaserJockimbrandon: what do you want to know?08:15
LaserJockand how "from scratch" do you want to go?08:15
imbrandonfrom bootstraping the base install on up08:16
imbrandonbut anystart would be good08:16
LaserJockhmm, well from scratch you can as Kamion for some scripts they use08:16
LaserJockthe ones I've been involved with started with an existing .iso and then changed it from within08:17
imbrandonyea 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
nixternalpeople are alive this late at night?08:17
LaserJockas you already have the casper stuff08:17
imbrandonLaserJock, yea i have customized the iso before08:17
LaserJockwell, there is customized as in change some artwork08:18
nixternalya, and he wanted me to go buy a dvd burner so i could try his iso out08:18
LaserJockand then there is customized like we do with Ichthux08:18
imbrandonno as in removed oo.o , all the default settings, more packages etc08:18
imbrandoni did a imbrandon version of kubuntu with no oo.o and koffice instead with all the meadia codecs etc08:19
imbrandon;)08:19
imbrandonplus new artwork ;)08:19
LaserJockin Icthux we have -deskto, -docs, -default-settings08:19
nixternaland he tried to burn it to LP08:19
imbrandonLaserJock, yea but how do you then generate the isos08:19
imbrandonfrom those08:19
LaserJockok, the basic idea is:08:20
LaserJockget the .iso08:20
LaserJockunpack it08:20
imbrandonoh so the custom way08:20
LaserJockchroot into the unpacked squashfs08:20
imbrandonnot the ubuntu way08:20
imbrandonright , yea thats how i did it08:20
LaserJockwell, sort of08:20
LaserJockit's somewhat in between08:20
imbrandonahh08:20
LaserJockwe then change the initrd08:20
LaserJockthe scripts that set up the livecd user08:21
LaserJockinstall -desktop, etc. meta packages08:21
LaserJockin the future though I think we are going to the Ubuntu way08:21
imbrandonright i'm with you so far08:21
LaserJockit's more complicated08:21
imbrandonok yea i have done that ( the way your doing it now )08:22
LaserJockbut it's a little more satisfying08:22
imbrandonhehe yea08:22
imbrandoni'm at the same point08:22
LaserJockI believe Kamion gave raphink a script08:22
LaserJockfor doing it the Ubuntu way08:22
LaserJockbut there is still quite a bit that uses the Ubuntu infrastructure08:23
imbrandoncool08:23
ajmitchthe s3kr3t sauce08:23
LaserJockso it's not easy to just "do it the Ubuntu way"08:23
ajmitchkamion has stuff in his bzr branches for this08:23
LaserJockas they use a fair amount of Soyuz magic I think08:23
ajmitchdebian-cd & related stuff08:23
LaserJockapparently sometime "soon" Soyuz might start supporting derivatives08:24
imbrandondo they use make-live ?08:24
ajmitchLaserJock: 'soon' has been said for awhile now08:24
LaserJockyes08:24
LaserJockwell, it sounded like early 200708:25
LaserJockI think Ichthux might be a test derivative08:25
LaserJockat least the LP guys were interested in that08:25
imbrandon;)08:26
imbrandonwell 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 me08:26
imbrandonthats one reason for me to learn BUT i would also just liek to "know"08:27
imbrandonlike*08:27
LaserJockyeah, I know what you mean08:27
LaserJockwe get questions about .iso customization all the time08:27
LaserJockit'd be nice to have a least some clue08:27
imbrandonalthough i do know what you mean, i did do that for my own dapper kubuntu live cd08:27
imbrandonas far as unpacking the squashfs , the initrd , the package changes etc etc08:28
TheMusoThen there is the fun of casper.08:28
imbrandonbut 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
LaserJockactually, it isn't too bad08:30
LaserJockwe have a lot of it automated08:30
imbrandoncool08:30
LaserJockwe have a standard initrd and a script that updates the manifest files08:31
imbrandonnice08:31
LaserJockyou spend more time unpacking and packing08:31
imbrandonyea , that takes a while08:32
LaserJockand transferring the .iso to mirrors08:32
imbrandonwell not tooooo long but a good while08:32
imbrandonmostly the repacking08:32
imbrandontorrents ;)08:32
LaserJockbah08:32
imbrandoni thought about making the codec enhanced kubuntu avail via torrent08:33
imbrandonsince its kinda iffy in some places ;)08:33
imbrandonbrb08:34
LaserJockbah, who needs codecs :-)08:34
LaserJockpeople shouldn't be listening to music or watch movies anyway08:34
LaserJockthey should be fixing bugs and contributing packages to REVU08:34
ajmitchor to Debian08:34
imbrandonhehe08:34
ajmitchalthough I do listen to music while packaging ;)08:35
TheMusoI listen to music, but its from my own CDs in FLAC format.08:35
imbrandonyea i dont think i could sit at the computer without tunes cranked08:35
imbrandonabout 70% is from my own cd's 10% from itunes , and the rest from "arround"08:35
imbrandonheh08:36

LaserJockif it's static it could go in /usr/share I suppose09:49
highvoltagea user might chroot into the environment and add/remove stuff though09:50
LaserJockthat's not so good for /usr/share/09:50
LaserJockor a package for that matter09:50
Yagisanhighvoltage, from experience users do chroot in to change things09:50
LaserJockdpkg likes to keep track of files09:51
=== highvoltage ponders a bit
Yagisanhighvoltage, considering it could even be a differnet distro - perhaps /opt really is the best place for it09:51
highvoltage/opt is nice because then it is also consistent with upstrem ltsp09:51
highvoltagebut I remember ogra once saying that's it's not the ideal place to have it09:52
=== MagnusR [n=magru@c83-250-59-127.bredband.comhem.se] has joined #ubuntu-motu
StevenKPolicy forbids packages to touch /opt.09:52
highvoltagehe mentioned where it would have been if we had a choice but I've forgotten :)09:52
highvoltageyes, I did that previously and lintian gave lots and lots of warnings for each file :)09:52
YagisanStevenK, policy doesn't consider a package might install a distro - which is what ltsp does09:52
StevenKOf course not, there's no precedent for it09:53
Yagisanthere is now ...09:53
StevenKThen bugs against Policy should be filed09:53
highvoltagewhat if I put a tarball in the package, and the postinst would extract it?09:53
highvoltagethat's a terrible hack, isn't it?09:53
Yagisanhighvoltage, it is. your ltsp - is it Ubuntu based ? if so - perhaps script it to download and install in the postinst ?09:54
LaserJockwhere will the tarball extract to?09:55
highvoltageLaserJock: I guess that could safely extract to /opt?09:55
LaserJockyeah09:56
LaserJockare you packaging it to avoid bandwith usage, i.e. computers without internet or bad internet connections?09:56
highvoltagethat, and to save installation time09:57
highvoltagebuilting the ltsp chroot is quite time consuming atm09:57
highvoltageI'd also like a nice and quick way for users to add ltsp, and remove it again09:58
highvoltagewell, more for our technicians in the end than the end-users, I suppose09:58
Yagisanhighvoltage, 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
highvoltagecan you currently build a chroot from the live cd install too?10:04
highvoltageextracting the tarball only takes about 2 minutes here :)10:04
highvoltageI 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
highvoltageor not... sorry, I think I'll think about it and ask around some more :)10:06
highvoltageYagisan, LaserJock, StevenK: thanks for your input and insight10:06
LaserJockso you wipe out people's existing chroot upon upgrade?10:06

highvoltageLaserJock: that's what I thought about just after pressing enter after I mentioned that10:08
highvoltagethe 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
highvoltageI don't expect our users to /really/ change the chroot10:09
=== janm [n=jmalonzo@ppp4592.dsl.pacific.net.au] has joined #ubuntu-motu

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 better09:56
Snake[Away] Because it seems that one is a bit dated (horay)09:57
Snake[Away] hoary*09:57
crimsunBuild on Dapper if your target is Dapper. Build on Edgy if your target is Edgy.09:57
crimsunwhere "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
crimsuncertainly.09:58
Snake[Away] great09:58
Snake[Away] is it more difficult? heh09:58
crimsunpbuilder? It's a cinch.09:58
ajmitchit'll be harder to test afterwards though09:58
ajmitchhello crimsun09:58
ajmitchhow's it going?09:58
crimsunhi ajmitch09:58
Snake[Away] Ah good point ajmitch ..09:58
crimsunnot bad, yourself?09:59
ajmitchalright09:59
Snake[Away] Im sure I can find someone on edgy that can test though09:59
BazziRSnake: what sort of software are you building?09:59
Snakecrimsun: do you have a more updated guide than the one I linked to? (I assume times have changed?)09:59
SnakeBazziR: Not sure ye09:59
Snaket09:59
crimsunSnake: the packaging guide on help.ubuntu.com?10:00
SnakeJust a few practice packages and whatnot10:00
Snakecrimsun: well the one I linked to was on the wiki, but like I said, its dated from hoary10:00
SnakeOhhhh10:00
Q-FUNKSnake: the methodology remains the same regardless of which release you make your packages for.10:00
SnakeOkay :)10:00
BazziRhttp://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/packagingguide/C/index.html <- I think that#s the most recent/comlete guide10:01
SnakeThis is what I was lookin for: https://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/packagingguide/C/index.html :)10:01
SnakeBazziR: thanks hehe10:01
BazziR:o10:01
Snakeis the KDE/Gnome building the same way?10:01
BazziRyou mean having those as dependencies?10:02
BazziRor using them as desktops generally?10:02
SnakeNo I mean I don't have to have a diffrent program or somethign to build for KDE10:02
Snakethen ahve a diffrent program to build for gnome10:02
Snakeright?10:02
BazziRno it's all console-based10:02
Q-FUNKhe means if there's any extra work involved in building GUI apps.10:02
SnakeFor the people to run on their systems10:02

BazziRah :)10:03
SnakeIm assume I just need the libs?10:03
BazziRSnake: you just have to specify what libs are required and they will be downloaded and installed automatically when needed (if I understand you correctly)10:03
=== Snake mumbles ubuntu needs a net installer while he downloads the iso
SnakeBazzi: Basically10:04
SnakeHEh10:04
Q-FUNKSnake: packaging desktop software, or perl or python modules, requires paying attention to a few more things than when pacaking simple commandline tools.10:05
