digeratessI believe I found an error on help.ubuntu.com. What's the proper way to report it?04:08
jjesseis it in a commuity doc or is on it the main site itself?04:08
digeratessmain site04:09
digeratesshttps://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/httpd.html04:09
jjessesend an email to ubuntu-doc@lists.ubuntu.com04:09
digeratesswill do04:10
nixternalor you can always file a bug ;)04:13
nixternaldigeratess: what is the error?04:13
digeratessSection re Virtual Hosts instructs people to use a <NameVirtualHost> block for name-based virtual hosts and a <VirtualHost> block for others.04:17
digeratessthere is no such thing as <NameVirtualHost> 04:18
digeratessrather, there is NameVirtualHost directive, which isn't specifically related to name-based virtual hosts, despite the similar verbiage04:18
nixternalahh, good eye on that one04:18
=== nixternal has never even read over that server guide
digeratesscurious--why does http redirect to http for the doc?04:19
digeratessI mean redirect to https04:19
digeratesswell, that doc also tells people to copy the /etc/apache2/sites-available/default file to make new virtual hosts04:20
digeratessbut it doesn't tell them if they don't delete the NameVirtualHost directive at the top, they'll get errors04:20
digeratessIn fact, that directive should not be in that default file at all. it should be in server config level04:21
nixternalya, i never understand the reasoning behind https with both wikis, but obviously they have a reason for it04:21
digeratessthanks y'all!04:25

Madpilothi Celeste 04:55
CelesteMadpilot, here I am04:55
jjessehello04:55
Celestewhat I want to say is:04:55
Celestethere is a hotel (but everyone knows that we talk about the hotel because it is a sentence on the hotels website)04:55
Celesteand not far away are 3 places to go for "cross country skiing"04:56
Celestethats like skiing, only not on a mountain04:56
Madpilotyes04:56
Celesteskiing the gully04:56
Celesteso the sentence should say:04:56
Celesteyou can <sport>  near to the hotel in ... ... ...04:56
Celestebut it has to sound good04:56
Celeste:)04:56
Madpilot"You can cross country ski near the hotel in <one>, <two>, and <three>."04:57
Celestesometimes, solutions are so easy that I cannot figure them out because they are too easy to see04:58
Celestethank you very much Madpilot !!04:58
Madpilotno problem. English is an evil language, with awful grammar. ;)04:58
Celesteactually the grammer is simple04:58
CelesteMadpilot, the grammer of most european languages is much more difficult04:59
Celestegerman, french, ....04:59
CelesteMadpilot, would you have time to have a look at tome text files containing just some lines english text?04:59
MadpilotCeleste, sure05:00
Celestefantastic!05:01
CelesteMadpilot, I am just writing all the stuff down, so I will be finishing everything within the next 15 minutes.   Is it ok when I show you the texts after finishing every single text?05:01
Madpilotthat's probably easiest05:02
MadpilotCeleste, if you want to PM me, you'll need to register your username here on Freenode.05:02

mptAnyone: The desktop guide apparently refers to Canonical as "a holding company", which it is not10:52
Madpilotso it does - Section 1.1.711:03

nixternalpower station blew up here11:46
mdkeouch11:46
nixternal5 hours w/o power, and it seems their little power surge killed my bip server11:46
mdkenixternal: I'm off to bed now, if you happen to have some time, we need to add pdf build targets in edgy/kubuntu/Makefile. But having read what you just said, maybe you won't be available11:46
nixternalso now I am trying to figure out how to work irc again ;)11:47
nixternali will be able to here in a bit11:47
nixternali can take a look at it11:47
mdkeif you can't, no worries, we can do it tomorrow11:47
nixternalhmm..is there any russian tweaks?11:47
nixternali know there is for the korean pdfs11:47
mdkesome languages need tweaks yeah. You should just be able to copy the relevant bits from dapper/kubuntu/Makefile and then add any new languages11:48
mdkethat's what I did for edgy/ubuntu/Makefile11:48
nixternaloh ya...no problem then..i will hack that out here in a bit11:48
mdkegreat. Thanks and good night11:48
