| LaserJock | hmmm, lots of people complaining about the file system on the forums | 12:24 |
|---|---|---|
| lucas | the file system ? | 12:25 |
| LaserJock | seems odd that people would be worried about that now, although maybe it's always been there and I've missed it | 12:25 |
| LaserJock | the directory layout | 12:25 |
| LaserJock | /bin, /etc .... | 12:25 |
| azeem | /etc is new in edgy? ;) | 12:25 |
| lucas | now I know why I don't read the forums | 12:25 |
| lucas | and I thought ubuntu-devel@ was difficult to follow :) | 12:26 |
| minghua | so basically they say FHS is wrong, or what? | 12:27 |
| LaserJock | it seems that a more OS X or GoboLinux | 12:28 |
| Burgundavia | yep | 12:28 |
| LaserJock | yeah, that FHS is tool archaic and difficult for new people to learn | 12:28 |
| LaserJock | s/tool/too/ | 12:28 |
| minghua | yeah, I remember Gobo Linux | 12:29 |
| minghua | such a weird idea | 12:29 |
| LaserJock | it's an interesting thought, I mean we shouldn't *only* keep things around because that's the way it's always been done | 12:29 |
| === minghua really prefers /etc/ to c:\Program Files\ | ||
| LaserJock | but it doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me | 12:29 |
| LaserJock | do new users really go rooting around the file system like that? | 12:30 |
| Burgundavia | forums people do | 12:30 |
| Burgundavia | and then they fuck up their machines and bitch to /. | 12:30 |
| LaserJock | sure | 12:30 |
| LaserJock | I was just thinking about a conversation I had with imbrandon about him using the .hidden file in Kubuntu | 12:31 |
| minghua | they don't use the proper tool, but modify files in /etc/ by hand, then complain that /etc/ is too hard to understand | 12:31 |
| Burgundavia | it has been a long time since the forums had a sensible idea | 12:31 |
| LaserJock | basically not showing that stuff to the user by default | 12:31 |
| minghua | I agree hiding them from users in the GUI is a good idea | 12:31 |
| LaserJock | sometimes the forums are worth addressing though | 12:31 |
| LaserJock | as they are our largest user population that we can get at | 12:32 |
| Burgundavia | sometimes | 12:32 |
| minghua | nah. I read the forum thread about _ion's wallpaper today | 12:32 |
| Burgundavia | a lot of people in the forums have a hard time understanding how development works | 12:32 |
| minghua | don't want to read forum again in near future | 12:32 |
| Burgundavia | I should write a piece about it | 12:32 |
| LaserJock | darn it, that "lets do stable, testing, and unstable in Ubuntu" thread is kinda messy | 12:36 |
| LaserJock | that joepotter guy really gets on my nerves | 12:36 |
| LaserJock | he flames me almost every time I talk about Ubuntu development | 12:37 |
| LaserJock | he really can't stand that Ubuntu does it differently then Debian | 12:37 |
| minghua | LaserJock, you should stop reading forums and work on science packages :-P | 12:38 |
| LaserJock | I know | 12:39 |
| === joejaxx loves grub error 15 | ||
| LaserJock | but there needs to be some sanity on the forums ;-) | 12:39 |
| LaserJock | even if it's too little too late :-) | 12:39 |
| crimsun | no there doesn't. Think of it as a playpen. | 12:39 |
| LaserJock | well, for the most part I don't care | 12:41 |
| pygi | LaserJock, whats the link to that thread? | 12:41 |
| LaserJock | what really aggravates me is when somebody spouts completely false information and then all the little sheep take it as gospel | 12:42 |
| LaserJock | people throwing ideas around, even if they aren't great, is much better then specifically spreading false information | 12:42 |

| LaserJock | minghua: sorry, got too much into cultural/religious references ;-) | 12:43 |
| minghua | LaserJock: actually I only need to look up gospel. Just a reminder not everyone understands bible references :-) | 12:44 |
| LaserJock | minghua: I'll rephrase it as "take it as absolute truth" | 12:45 |
| minghua | this guy just doesn't understand the unstable branch is not important, it's the _people_ who use the unstable branch that are important" | 12:47 |

| minghua | okay, time to go home | 12:52 |
| Simon80 | it's true | 12:59 |
| Simon80 | but I do find myself unsatified with the stability of some aspects of Ubuntu | 01:00 |
| Simon80 | ....too late to talk with minghua though, hehe | 01:00 |
| LaserJock | right | 01:00 |
| LaserJock | it's find to be unsatisfied, IMO | 01:00 |
| LaserJock | but the answer is not to just shout at the developers | 01:01 |
| LaserJock | and insult them :-) | 01:01 |
| Simon80 | where does he do that? | 01:01 |
| Simon80 | lol | 01:01 |
| crimsun | although it's fine to insult the raging motuaholic. | 01:01 |
| LaserJock | hmm | 01:02 |
| crimsun | he's a RAGING motuaholic; he can take it | 01:02 |
| LaserJock | Simon80: well, that guy has insulted me absolutely every time he has replied to one of my posts | 01:02 |
| LaserJock | this is the tamest one I've seen, so far | 01:02 |
| crimsun | convince those guys to spec and implement an alternative release, then, in parallel with feisty. | 01:05 |
| crimsun | I suspect they'll change their minds very, very quickly | 01:05 |
| crimsun | and "I give up, you do it" is not an option for them :) | 01:05 |
| crimsun | remember it's fashionable to pick on Ubuntu | 01:05 |
| crimsun | people love to whine; only a few actually put in the work | 01:06 |
| Simon80 | yep | 01:07 |
| crimsun | (that's why we exist, eh?) | 01:07 |
| Simon80 | somewhat, I was mostly no work untill recently.. I plan on getting stepmania into feisty | 01:07 |
| Simon80 | people want to give their 2 cents without diong work | 01:07 |
| Simon80 | doing* | 01:07 |
| crimsun | heh, and people wonder why some DDs seem bitter... | 01:08 |
| Simon80 | in some cases I think that's valid, like if something regresses, or just isn't fixed, and the fix is out there | 01:08 |

| LaserJock | well, I wouldn't mind people bringing up problems, but often there is a lack of understanding of the development process | 01:21 |
| LaserJock | which is understandable if you haven't been around it before | 01:21 |

| superm1 | sounds cool "the only rule you may be told is this one." | 01:35 |
| superm1 | lophyte, did you catch her name? | 01:36 |

| imbrandon | superm1, yea you cant be told the rules before or durring the game play | 01:36 |
| superm1 | thats really cool | 01:36 |
| lophyte | just know that she's setting up a home theater system with myth | 01:36 |
| lophyte | and she mentioned you | 01:36 |
| superm1 | glad to hear that i'm making the rounds in canadia :) | 01:36 |

| superm1 | imbrandon, well in favor of having a more fun first game then, i wont read the rules on the wikipedia page | 01:37 |

| Simon80 | yeah, if you want a stepmania deb from 20061106 cvs sources, it's on my site | 01:39 |
| imbrandon | Simon80, rock on, just saying "hi" since i hadent talked/typed to you before | 01:40 |
| Simon80 | yeah, I know | 01:40 |
| Simon80 | I was responding to that :) | 01:40 |
| superm1 | lophyte, i've got it on my mythbox with a hand built metal pad, but i havent played in ages since the pad broke 4 months ago | 01:40 |
| Simon80 | aww | 01:40 |
| lophyte | nice.. I've always wanted to build a dandce pad | 01:40 |
| Simon80 | yeah, I may want to | 01:41 |
| Simon80 | gonna go eat | 01:41 |
| lophyte | the damn pad we have keeps slipping, annoying as heck | 01:41 |
| superm1 | there was a good guide i found a few years back to building a metal one. cost me roughly 120 USD and 28 hrs labor | 01:41 |
| lophyte | I saw a guide for one made of wood | 01:41 |
| Simon80 | http://www.eng.uwaterloo.ca/~sruggier/files/apt/ if anyone wants stepmania as is... I'm gonna backport to 3.9 sometime so I can get it on revu | 01:41 |
| Simon80 | need to get my key signed too | 01:41 |
| lophyte | you know what would work, though? just nail/velcro the real pads to a wooden platform | 01:42 |
| lophyte | that way they won't slip | 01:42 |

| superm1 | that doesnt work because they wear out | 01:42 |
| superm1 | after so many steps | 01:42 |
| Simon80 | I know someone who's done that | 01:42 |
| superm1 | thats what i originally did | 01:42 |
| Simon80 | based on a howto online | 01:42 |
| superm1 | but i was going through pads too quickly | 01:42 |
| lophyte | sure, but buy a new one.. they're cheap | 01:42 |
| superm1 | so i built the metal one | 01:42 |
| lophyte | we've had our pads for almost a year | 01:42 |
| Simon80 | it's really the adapter that's a pain to obtain, getting one that maps buttons to buttons | 01:42 |
| Simon80 | so once you have that, you can get a pad locally | 01:43 |
| === fernando_ [n=fernando@200.96.251.210] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||

| === imbrandon has made a few snes->ltp adapeters by hand :) | ||
| Simon80 | but yes, I bought 5 pads+adapters from lik-sang a while ago | 01:44 |
| Simon80 | early this year | 01:44 |
| Simon80 | 1 for me, 1 for gf, 1 for little sis, 2 to sell | 01:44 |
| Simon80 | had one lined up to sell right away, was too lazy to second the second | 01:44 |
| Simon80 | sell* | 01:44 |
| lophyte | it wouldn't be too hard to build a simple wooden platform.. | 01:44 |
| superm1 | i used a hand built lpt -> ps2 adapter for a while too, but i only ever had it working in win98 back in the day. never got it working in linux, so i got one of those lik sang ones too | 01:45 |

| superm1 | i'll have to dig up that adapter from the closet and see if i cant get it working with those modules. i remember only briefly trying with it | 01:47 |
| imbrandon | gamecon takes some parms , you'll probably have to google for the exact ones | 01:48 |
| superm1 | its very possible the adapter is broken though too. i did a *very* ghetto soldering job on it, and have moved several times since then | 01:49 |

| Hobbsee | LaserJock: the latter, i believe | 03:12 |

| LaserJock | well, don't we need to list all the changes for a sync dropping Ubuntu changes? | 03:12 |

| Hobbsee | hah | 03:58 |
| Hobbsee | konsole works nicely | 03:58 |
| Hobbsee | there's one thing that disturbs me about gnome-terminal | 03:58 |
| Hobbsee | i think it's gnome-terminal - it might be xterm though. | 03:58 |
| imbrandon | there is many things, but thats another story | 03:58 |
| Hobbsee | it doesnt let me use backspace | 03:58 |
| Hobbsee | (at least on my old machine) | 03:59 |
| minghua | nah. no way I can change a terminal to work in, like you can't switch my editor | 03:59 |
| Hobbsee | it's just a shell | 03:59 |
| Hobbsee | any terminal will give you a bash shell, or whatever you want | 03:59 |
| imbrandon | :) | 03:59 |
| minghua | for some people the whole "desktop" is web browser and terminal :-) | 03:59 |
| Hobbsee | yeah, well | 04:00 |
| Hobbsee | they're just crazy :P | 04:00 |
| minghua | (and I am actually quite close, probably plus xchat-gnome) | 04:00 |
| imbrandon | minghua, there are other programs ? | 04:00 |
| minghua | heh | 04:00 |
| imbrandon | ouch, good thing you have konversation now, i can see using gnome-term, but not xchat | 04:00 |
| minghua | imbrandon: yes, frozen bubble! | 04:00 |
| imbrandon | whew | 04:00 |
| Hobbsee | hehe | 04:00 |
| minghua | xchat-gnome is actually quite different from xchat | 04:01 |
| minghua | but I suppose it doesn't make enough difference to you KDE guys | 04:01 |
| Hawkwind | Yes it does actually | 04:01 |
| imbrandon | yea xchat-gnome not only sucks as much as xchat but on top of that it sticks all the settings in the registry^Wgconf | 04:01 |
| imbrandon | :) | 04:02 |
| Hawkwind | Bahhhhhhhh @ imbrandon | 04:02 |
| Hawkwind | Xchat is by far the most superior GUI IRC client available. It's used and wanted by more users than xchat-gnome and also updated more often. | 04:02 |
| Hawkwind | IMO xchat-gnome should *not* be in main over xchat. But I've also filed a bug/wishlist about this subject | 04:03 |
| imbrandon | matter of opinion :) | 04:03 |
| Hawkwind | And my opinion counts! :-) | 04:03 |
| imbrandon | on both counts :) | 04:03 |
| minghua | Hmm, so Kubuntu does install libgtk2.0-0 by default | 04:08 |
| === minghua wonders what that is for | ||
| imbrandon | not iirc | 04:08 |
| minghua | well, maybe only for alternative | 04:08 |
| minghua | but it's here on my fresh install | 04:08 |
| minghua | bluez-pin depends on it here | 04:10 |
| minghua | and libglade2-0 | 04:10 |
| imbrandon | ahh must be a mistake, thanks for pointing it out, i'll get that bug fixed | 04:10 |
| imbrandon | :) | 04:10 |
| minghua | do you KDE guys know that openoffice.org-core depends on libgtk2.0-0? | 04:11 |
| === minghua grins | ||
| imbrandon | yes we know, and thus why feisty+1 wont have oo.o :) | 04:12 |
| minghua | Hmm, may god bless Kubuntu users then | 04:12 |
| imbrandon | actualy it makes alot of sense, but thats another story , i'll get into it later | 04:17 |
| Hobbsee | if we were doing that, we could include firefox, surely! *g* | 04:19 |
| minghua | I heard KOffice is making good progress, but it's still hard to believe it will be ready to replace OO.o at feisty+1 frame | 04:20 |
| minghua | Hobbsee: I care about that mainly because one of my package went through heavy surgery in ubuntu to split out gtk dependencies | 04:21 |
| Hobbsee | minghua: true | 04:22 |
| minghua | just because JRiddell doesn't want a Kubuntu install-by-default package to depend on gtk | 04:22 |
| minghua | so I am quite astonished to see that it doesn't make any difference anyway | 04:23 |
| imbrandon | its not that he dosent want it to depend on gtk, its that we promote kde apps not "best of breed" like suse or others | 04:23 |
| imbrandon | and koffice2 ( kde 4 ) will be in feisty+1 | 04:23 |
| imbrandon | and will have oasis and doc support by then so yes, it does make sense | 04:24 |
| imbrandon | instead of loading two libs | 04:24 |
| imbrandon | it only will load one set | 04:24 |
| imbrandon | also will save tons of room on the cd | 04:24 |
| imbrandon | to the tone of 75-90mb | 04:24 |
| imbrandon | :) | 04:24 |
| minghua | if koffice will have decent open document support, then I suppose yes, it does make sense | 04:25 |
| imbrandon | if we did best of breed it would make sense to use ff and gaim , and coutless others | 04:25 |
| Hobbsee | ick, gaim | 04:25 |
| minghua | but I honestly doubt koffice will be ready by then | 04:25 |
| === Hobbsee cant *stand* gaim | ||
| imbrandon | minghua, then you havent been following it closely, the 2 branch already has decient support for it ( just not stable right now becouse of the underlying libs ) | 04:26 |
| minghua | of course I haven't followed it closely | 04:28 |
| imbrandon | :) | 04:28 |
| minghua | but koffice 2 hasn't made a stable release yet, has it? | 04:28 |
| imbrandon | no obviously not ( as it depends on kde4 libs ) | 04:29 |
| minghua | and my general feeling is that an office suite program needs about one year to settle down after first stable release | 04:29 |
| imbrandon | and thats only in snapshot2 atm, with a beta scheduled for dec sometime | 04:29 |
| minghua | (first public beta, let's say) | 04:30 |
| minghua | hmm | 04:30 |
| minghua | so that's going to be this Dec to next Oct | 04:30 |
| imbrandon | minghua, then many many many, disagree with that, infact | 04:30 |
| minghua | maybe it will work | 04:30 |
| imbrandon | thats the first i've heard anyone say it | 04:30 |
| minghua | imbrandon: the "need one year to stablize" thing? | 04:31 |
| imbrandon | yes | 04:31 |
| minghua | well, let's wait and see then | 04:31 |
| minghua | I admit it's not an educated guess | 04:31 |
| ajmitch | hi | 04:31 |
| sladen | can OOo instead be 'fixed' to not depend on Gtk? | 04:31 |
| minghua | but let me remind you one thing -- support for English doesn't count as "good enough support to open document" | 04:32 |
| imbrandon | sladen, sure, but it cant be "fixed" to intergrate gracefully into the kde desktop ( and dont say it can use kde dialogs, its about much more that the widgets ) | 04:32 |
| minghua | s/English/English only/ | 04:32 |
| imbrandon | who said anything about english only? and a document "format" dosent require translations , and if you mean koffice, its been arround far longer than a year and has great translation support | 04:34 |
| imbrandon | anyhow not trying to start a war, but change isnt always a bad thing :) and yes this has been in the works for months and will take many more months to make sure it go's smooth and works right , its not a hap hazard transition | 04:37 |
| imbrandon | dont think that | 04:37 |
| minghua | imbrandon: no I know you are not trying to start a war (hope you think I am not, too) | 04:38 |
| imbrandon | no no not at all, just wanted to make sure you dident think it was a gtk / qt thing, as it go's much deeper than the toolkit | 04:38 |
| imbrandon | but yea | 04:38 |
| minghua | the thing is, you never will know what Chinese processing bug you are going to have until you have a bunch of Chinese users test it on a daily basis | 04:38 |
| imbrandon | minghua, very true, but that dosent stop change, nor realeases ( rember feisty+1 wont be a LTS also ) | 04:39 |
| minghua | so unless Koffice is developed in a very different way, or the Koffice developers are very genius, I'll bet there will be plenty of bugs when handling languages other than English | 04:40 |
| minghua | interface translation is the easiest part of l10n for an office suite program | 04:40 |
| imbrandon | i dont see how unless they are already there | 04:40 |
| minghua | imbrandon: I have no problem with the decision to replace OO.o with Koffice | 04:41 |
| imbrandon | no what i mean is you are talking like koffice is a new program, its been arround for YEARS | 04:41 |
| minghua | imbrandon:I think I didn't say "useless" anywhere? | 04:41 |
| imbrandon | bug like that would have shown their head by now :) | 04:41 |
| minghua | hmm. maybe the kde3 to kde4 switch is not as big as I think it is then | 04:42 |
| minghua | but still, I have heard of _zero_ Chinese user who use Koffice on a daily basis | 04:42 |
| minghua | we'll see. I don't really care about Koffice that much anyway :-P | 04:43 |
| === minghua likes this Adept Manager quite a bit :-) | ||

| minghua | imbrandon: huh? so this adept manager can't deal with debconf questions at all? | 04:51 |
| imbrandon | it tries, and fails, then dpkg dies and unless you fiddle with the /var/run/dpkg/something/lock your screwed on installing or remoiving apps | 04:52 |

| Hobbsee | what packages are possible to install to provide dvd playback? | 05:39 |
| Hobbsee | apart from libdvdread3 binary, and the script associated iwth that? | 05:39 |
| imbrandon | front ends or do you mean libdvdcss stuff ? | 05:39 |
| Hobbsee | anything apart from libdvdcss - but that kind of stuff | 05:39 |
| Hobbsee | + * Removed install-css.sh which is useless since we have binary packages | 05:39 |
| Hobbsee | + on debian-unofficial.org (Closes: #390544). | 05:39 |
| imbrandon | Hobbsee, shouldent need anything else other than that and a player | 05:39 |
| Hobbsee | ie, do we have anything other packages like that? i jus tsaw that debian bug | 05:40 |

| imbrandon | but nothing official | 05:40 |
| Hobbsee | hmmm | 05:40 |
| imbrandon | as we cant becouse of leagle issues etc | 05:41 |
| Hobbsee | well, yeah | 05:41 |
| Hobbsee | unless it got put in multiverse | 05:41 |
| imbrandon | very very very few used that script anyhow, they just got the packages from plf or seveas | 05:41 |
| imbrandon | no i dont think it can even go in multiverse afaik | 05:42 |
| imbrandon | basicly becouse its not a patent issue its a issue of the actual source is illeagle in the US and other places | 05:42 |
| LaserJock | anybody know of any "Here's how you port gtk/qt apps to qt/gtk" guides? | 05:43 |
| imbrandon | thus even hosting the source on a US mirror would not be leagle | 05:43 |
| Hobbsee | imbrandon: i realise that. i'm wondering if i can ignore what debian's said, and just merge it, with that script in it anyway | 05:43 |
| imbrandon | Hobbsee, well thats what i would do is merge and keep the script BUT check on the vunerability is fixed | 05:44 |
| imbrandon | OR if its not drop it as they did as the package is avail via third part repos as they did | 05:44 |
| Hobbsee | imbrandon: that requires figuring out what the vulnerability is. seeing as it seems a straight use of wget.... | 05:44 |
| imbrandon | e.g. debian-unofficial or seveas | 05:44 |

| poningru | realist: libdvdcss is illegal in the US due to the DMCA | 05:46 |
| imbrandon | Hobbsee, looks sane to me but it does use /tmp , you might check with some other expert other than me | 05:46 |
| poningru | err s/realist/re: | 05:46 |
| imbrandon | poningru, correct | 05:47 |
| Hobbsee | hmm | 05:47 |
| poningru | also some have come up with patent reasons | 05:47 |
| imbrandon | but the issue is with the source, not the binaly forms of it or redist etc, thuis even hosting the source you can get in trubble | 05:47 |
| poningru | right | 05:48 |
| imbrandon | like one person was sued and lost when he printed the source on a t-shirt and wore it | 05:48 |
| imbrandon | thus the reason it cant even be in multiverse | 05:48 |
| === elkbuntu [n=melissa@ubuntu/member/elkbuntu] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| poningru | actually that was the decss dvd key | 05:48 |
| imbrandon | right but libdvdcss2 uses that :) | 05:48 |
| === bddebian2 [n=bdefrees@c-71-224-172-103.hsd1.pa.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| poningru | but that is no longer illegal since the only protection it had was the tradesecret | 05:49 |
| imbrandon | its all kinda stupid tbh but we cant circumvent it atm, i would recomend Hobbsee dropping the script untill the vunerability can be verified NOT to be there as the changelog says as the deb is avail from debian-unofficial and seveas | 05:50 |
| poningru | imbrandon++ | 05:50 |
| Hobbsee | fair enough | 05:51 |
| imbrandon | like i said looks sane to me but i'm not a security expert , etc etc etc | 05:52 |

| crimsun | it's vulnerable to any number of attacks | 05:54 |
| Hobbsee | yeah | 05:54 |
| crimsun | it's not chowned or umasked properly; the PATH isn't set properly, etc. | 05:54 |
| Hobbsee | so's running any script as root - is amarok's any better? | 05:54 |
| imbrandon | yes amarok has checks in place | 05:55 |
| === ajmitch feels like jumping on the bandwagon | ||
| Hobbsee | ah right | 05:55 |
| Hobbsee | oh yay | 05:55 |
| imbrandon | ajmitch, installing kubuntu ? hehe | 05:55 |
| Hobbsee | I LOVE PEOPLE STEALING MY MERGES AND NOT TELLING ME ABOUT THEM!!!!! ARGH!!!! | 05:55 |
| LaserJock | shesh | 05:56 |
| === crimsun steals another of Hobbsee's merges | ||
| ajmitch | imbrandon: nah, blogging | 05:56 |
| imbrandon | ajmitch, ahhh rock on | 05:56 |
| Hobbsee | this has happened about 5 times so far! | 05:56 |
| ajmitch | Hobbsee: may I steal some? | 05:56 |
| ajmitch | Hobbsee: who has been stealing them? | 05:56 |
| imbrandon | ajmitch, fix universe :) | 05:56 |
| Hobbsee | ajmitch: sure, but please actually tell me about them | 05:56 |
| Hobbsee | ajmitch: non MOTU's | 05:56 |
| ajmitch | imbrandon: nah, I'll fix main | 05:56 |
| ajmitch | Hobbsee: and have they been uploaded? | 05:56 |
| imbrandon | hehe | 05:56 |
| Hobbsee | ajmitch: nope. they've been assigned to MOTU, and left to sit | 05:57 |
| LaserJock | so when has this "owning" of merges start :-) | 05:57 |
| ajmitch | LaserJock: start of edgy or so | 05:57 |
| Hobbsee | LaserJock: it says on MOM | 05:57 |
| === crimsun assigns all his universe merges to LaserJock | ||
| crimsun | go raging motuaholic, go! | 05:57 |
| Hobbsee | If you are not the previous uploader, ask the previous uploader before doing the merge. This prevents two people from doing the same work. | 05:57 |
| ajmitch | Hobbsee: so people have been contributing fixes, and you don't like that? | 05:57 |
| imbrandon | ajmitch, haha that was my thinking | 05:57 |
| Hobbsee | ajmitch: it's not that i dont like that - i do. it's the fact that they do for stuff that's listed as me, i do the same, without checking LP first, then figure it all out and go "oh damn, someone's already done this, now i've just done the work again" | 05:58 |
| imbrandon | i'm likie and thats a bad thing? ( kinda sucks if you dont look first , but its a good thing(tm) | 05:58 |
| ajmitch | Hobbsee: people are just eager to help :) | 05:58 |
| Hobbsee | i mean, obviously i should be looking first, but the double work isnt necessary. we dont have the people to be able to do that! | 05:58 |
| LaserJock | well, this is why we shouldn't be relying on merges.ubuntu.com for this | 05:58 |
| LaserJock | we should need "ownership" of merges to help us keep track | 05:59 |
| Hobbsee | LaserJock: what else are people using though? | 05:59 |
| LaserJock | Hobbsee: we used to use a revu page | 05:59 |
| LaserJock | that was much better for this | 05:59 |
| imbrandon | Hobbsee, obviously LP also :) | 05:59 |
| crimsun | the revu page is still subject to the same race condition that merges.uc has | 05:59 |
| LaserJock | well, except with the revu page you file a bug to "lock" the merge | 06:00 |
| Hobbsee | it's a problem with syncs - as those are waiting a while to go thru, so the probability of them already being done is higher | 06:00 |
| ajmitch | people can still duplicate work, no matter what | 06:00 |
| LaserJock | there is no way of indicating status on merges.ubuntu.com | 06:00 |
| crimsun | precisely, bmonty and I raced on merges numerous times | 06:00 |
| LaserJock | sure it can happen, but I thought it was much easier to see what was going on with the revu page | 06:01 |
| === Hobbsee expected that to happen later | ||
| crimsun | feisty-changes isn't reliable, either, since some uploads aren't announced | 06:01 |
| Hobbsee | indeed | 06:03 |
| === Hobbsee acks the other one, anyway | ||
| Hobbsee | wish they'd stolen the merges i didnt want to do :P | 06:03 |
| imbrandon | lol | 06:03 |
| === minghua frowns at 35760 and 37711 | ||
| minghua | two bugs I am trying to produce by doing this Kubuntu install, to no avail :-( | 06:04 |
| Hobbsee | yay, i can request a sync that *hasnt* already been done! | 06:05 |
| LaserJock | Hobbsee: I solved the issue by doing virtually no merges in Edgy | 06:08 |
| Hobbsee | crimsun: mind if i request a sync for kmldonkey? | 06:08 |
| LaserJock | I don't own much of anything | 06:08 |
| === ajmitch does some reviewing | ||
| Hobbsee | LaserJock: heh, i was thinking fo that | 06:08 |
| ajmitch | LaserJock: yeah, I have basically nothing | 06:08 |
| ajmitch | yay for me being lazy | 06:08 |
| crimsun | Hobbsee: not at all | 06:08 |
| Hobbsee | crimsun: :) | 06:09 |
| === ajmitch returns to being lazy | ||
| Hobbsee | crimsun: and that's a really werid way to call dh_iconcache | 06:09 |
| crimsun | I don't even remember what put into the delta | 06:09 |
| crimsun | what I put, even | 06:09 |
| Hobbsee | the long way of calling it, instead of just "dh_iconcache" | 06:10 |
| === minghua has no merges either | ||

| === Hobbsee wonders when large amounts of doom will occur at work | ||
| crimsun | from the pbuilder examples | 06:14 |
| Hobbsee | LaserJock: pbuilder hooks - b91dpkg-i and c10shell, in particular | 06:14 |
| imbrandon | some hooks that were built from examples Hobbsee wanted me to use on my dev build machine | 06:14 |
| LaserJock | oh | 06:14 |
| minghua | Hmm, so what is this dh_iconcache thing? something specific to ubuntu? | 06:14 |
| Hobbsee | (direct copies, actually) | 06:14 |
| imbrandon | minghua, it was a ubuntu transition , but now its in the gnome.mk and kde.mk cdbs files so no longer needed for the most part | 06:15 |

| minghua | thanks imbrandon and Hobbsee | 06:16 |
| minghua | the mail linked from the wiki is dated April 2006 | 06:17 |
| minghua | so _end_ of dapper cycle | 06:17 |
| minghua | and no wonder I didn't pay attention to it | 06:17 |

| LaserJock | it takes me so many stinking clicks to find them | 06:20 |

| minghua | there isn't a way to say "I don't want to receive mail for my own comments" in LP, is there? | 06:21 |
| ajmitch | minghua: not that I'm aware of | 06:23 |
| imbrandon | hrm Hobbsee the dpkg-i one is a little flakey, i might change it a bit | 06:23 |
| imbrandon | hen i get some time | 06:23 |
| Hobbsee | if you want | 06:23 |
| imbrandon | it doesnt try to install the deps | 06:23 |
| ajmitch | imbrandon: gdebi! | 06:24 |
| imbrandon | it just fails if dpkg -i doesnt work | 06:24 |
| imbrandon | ajmitch, heh | 06:24 |
| ajmitch | imbrandon: gdebi works well as a command-line-only tool | 06:24 |
| imbrandon | does it ? wow ok, i'll look at making the hook use that instead | 06:25 |
| ajmitch | you'd just have to put it into the extra packages part of the pbuilder config | 06:25 |
| Hobbsee | it doesnt? i thought it did | 06:25 |
| Hobbsee | ahh | 06:25 |
| imbrandon | right | 06:25 |
| minghua | what is wrong with plain old debi? | 06:27 |
| minghua | so there is no chance to try these desktop bling if your graphical card isn't intel, nvidia, or ati? | 06:31 |

| Amaranth | w00t | 07:02 |
| Amaranth | that line is important for unbreaking interactions with legacy menus, i'm glad you don't have to remove it | 07:02 |
| LaserJock | it even works when I add an item to the menu | 07:02 |
| === Amaranth swears a lot | ||
| Amaranth | fscking menu spec :P | 07:02 |
| LaserJock | I'm not exactly a big fan either | 07:03 |
| Amaranth | wait, no, smegging menu spec :) | 07:03 |
| LaserJock | a lot of the time it's a real pain | 07:03 |
| LaserJock | too vague | 07:03 |
| Amaranth | it's great for the use-case of "an ISV wants to drop something into a menu" | 07:03 |
| Amaranth | but then it just goes crazy for everything else | 07:03 |
| LaserJock | ok, so the only thing I think I won't be able to implement that I wanted to is bookmarks in the menus | 07:04 |
| === zenrox [n=zenrox@pool-71-115-219-183.spknwa.dsl-w.verizon.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| Amaranth | bookmarks? | 07:07 |
| Amaranth | LaserJock: explain please, maybe we can do some magic | 07:07 |
| Amaranth | LaserJock: WinXP "Pin to Start Menu" kind of thing? | 07:07 |
| LaserJock | well basically I want to be able to drop in bookmarks into the menus | 07:07 |
| nixternal | oy! | 07:08 |
| LaserJock | so like in the Chemistry menu there would be a link to the chemisty web book, etc. | 07:08 |
| Amaranth | oh, right | 07:08 |
| Amaranth | easy | 07:08 |
| LaserJock | but gnome-menus doesn't respect Type=Link | 07:08 |
| Amaranth | right | 07:08 |
| LaserJock | so you have to create .desktops with Exec=firefox http://.... | 07:09 |
| LaserJock | which then becomes a usability problem | 07:09 |
| Amaranth | eh? | 07:09 |
| LaserJock | because teachers should have to know that they have to make an item for a browser to open a URL | 07:09 |
| LaserJock | they should just be able to specify the URL | 07:10 |
| Amaranth | hmm | 07:10 |
| Amaranth | alacarte could do some magic in the backend for that, i suppose | 07:10 |
| LaserJock | so I could possibly add that to my GUI | 07:10 |
| Amaranth | but the real answer would be to all Type=Link support to gnome-menus | 07:10 |
| crimsun | err, did you mean "shouldn't" above? | 07:10 |
| Amaranth | up for a challenge? :) | 07:10 |

| === raphink [n=raphink@ubuntu/member/raphink] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| LaserJock | Amaranth: well, from what you said it sounds like gnome-menus isn't very active upstream | 07:11 |
| Amaranth | markmc just committed some stuff, actually | 07:11 |
| LaserJock | I'm not sure I'm code-savy enough to just hack into it | 07:11 |
| Amaranth | it might be a PITA getting him to do a code review though | 07:11 |
| LaserJock | I wonder if there is a gnome bug about it | 07:12 |
| Amaranth | oh, you want someone else to do it for you :) | 07:12 |
| Amaranth | i thought Type=Link was dropped from the spec since GNOME didn't support it | 07:12 |
| LaserJock | from what spec? | 07:12 |
| LaserJock | Gnome uses it for other things | 07:13 |
| LaserJock | just not in the menus | 07:13 |
| LaserJock | I think that is a little inconsistent | 07:14 |
| Amaranth | ah | 07:14 |
| Amaranth | heh | 07:14 |
| Amaranth | well, if there is already code to do it i wouldn't think making gnome-menus call that code would be hard | 07:14 |
| LaserJock | well, nautilus handles them fine on the desktop | 07:15 |
| LaserJock | I guess alacarte would have to handle editing them too | 07:16 |
| Amaranth | yeah, that wouldn't be so bad | 07:17 |
| LaserJock | maybe I'll file a bug in gnome | 07:18 |
| LaserJock | and mention it in my spec | 07:18 |
| LaserJock | and at least start something there | 07:19 |

| LaserJock | 1 a minute? that seems kinda fast | 07:34 |
| LaserJock | it takes my pbuilder that long to unpack the base.tgz :/ | 07:34 |
| ajmitch | quite a few will be too trivial for edgy-updates, so you'll have to ask them to update the patch for feisty | 07:34 |
| ajmitch | so < 1 min for those | 07:34 |
| LaserJock | true | 07:35 |

| Burgundavia | Chandu: sorry, I am having a hard time understanding exactly what you want | 09:39 |
| Chandu | Burgundavia, I want to build a single cd distro (How Ubuntu is there ) with openoffice , ngome desktop and few other applications .. | 09:40 |
| Burgundavia | right | 09:40 |
| Chandu | Burgundavia, I am using Debian G-I , Iam able to create the image ..but tha pacakges what I have mentioend in my tasks list of debian-cd are not installing | 09:40 |
| Burgundavia | what specifically do you need to change from Ubuntu? | 09:40 |
| ivoks | so, what's the thing with binary drivers? | 09:41 |
| ivoks | will ubuntu really shipp them by default? | 09:41 |
| Chandu | Burgundavia, Not change from Ubuntu ..I want to know the steps to follow to come out with a single cd | 09:41 |
| Burgundavia | ivoks: afaics, yes | 09:41 |

| Burgundavia | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AcceleratedX | 09:41 |
| Burgundavia | I imagine the debate is going to get a lot noisy once it actually happens | 09:42 |
| ivoks | Currently, Ubuntu does little to enable Composition and 3D | 09:42 |
| ivoks | who wrote this?! | 09:42 |
| imbrandon | Chandu, you might talk with joejaxx sometime, he is doing the same thing from scratch , and is working on modified scripts he got from cjwatson at UDS | 09:42 |
| Burgundavia | ivoks: rodrigo novo | 09:43 |
| ivoks | this is untrue | 09:43 |
| Chandu | Burgundavia, ok | 09:43 |
| Chandu | imbrandon, ok | 09:43 |
| Burgundavia | ivoks: that acceleratedX spec was drafted by rodrigo. I understand that sabdfl is heavily pushing this | 09:44 |
| Chandu | joejaxx, I am working on a distro build .. I want to come out with a single cd distro with gnome , openoffice and few other applications by default | 09:44 |
| ivoks | Burgundavia: i hope this is just a nightmare :) | 09:44 |
| imbrandon | Chandu, as i said ask joejaxx for his scripts to do this, he has that all working with seeds etc, the proper way | 09:45 |
| Chandu | joejaxx, with debian G-I ... I want to know the steps that I need to follow to come out with a single cd as Ubuntu with all feaures | 09:45 |
| Burgundavia | ivoks: I truly hope so too. But you understand how sabdfl can be | 09:45 |
| Chandu | imbrandon, ok | 09:45 |
| Chandu | joejaxx, Can you give me the scripts that u r using to do all these things | 09:45 |
| ivoks | Burgundavia: this will result in more ubuntu users, but even less good programers | 09:45 |
| Chandu | joejaxx, Iam able to build a image ..but all the pacakges which Iam listing in tasks of debian-cd are not installing | 09:46 |
| imbrandon | Chandu, he is most likely asleep as its 2am in his timezone | 09:46 |
| Burgundavia | ivoks: yes. I agree. https://features.launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+spec/accelerated-x <-- still in drafting, at least | 09:46 |

| Burgundavia | all the X specs are, for that matter | 09:46 |
| Burgundavia | ivoks: just glad I have an i915 here | 09:46 |

| slomo | imbrandon: LP is not yet white-listed for feisty-changes it seems | 10:14 |
| imbrandon | slomo, yea i noticed :( | 10:15 |
| imbrandon | Burgundavia, depends on your definition of "needs" i have both nvidia and ati and none use binary drivers ( but none have 3d accel either ) | 10:16 |
| imbrandon | i think its mostly network cards that "need" it | 10:16 |
| Burgundavia | imbrandon: by "needs", I mean "needs 3D drivers" | 10:17 |
| ajmitch | nvidia binary driver is also needed for basic stuff like dual-head | 10:17 |
| Burgundavia | r300 does free 3D for everything below the x1xxx series | 10:17 |
| imbrandon | well the freee ati can do direct rendering and composite ootb on all cards afaik but its better on the non-free drivers from what i've been told | 10:17 |
| imbrandon | i know atleaste the free ati works for direct 3d on mt radeon moble 7500 | 10:18 |
| imbrandon | s/mt/my | 10:18 |

| ajmitch | nvidia | 10:22 |
| imbrandon | ahh | 10:22 |
| imbrandon | i might try that tomarrow on my box that has an nvidia card | 10:22 |
| ajmitch | all you'll get is some slight improvements over the nv driver | 10:23 |
| imbrandon | as i dont use it really for anything but to ssh into and compile so if X breaks no biggie | 10:23 |
| ajmitch | there is no working 3d | 10:23 |
| imbrandon | ahh | 10:23 |
| ajmitch | the ddx part is the nv driver, with some fixes | 10:23 |
| slomo | imbrandon: your stuff will be built nonetheless | 10:23 |
| imbrandon | my main thing is the chipset in it and nic, i could really care less about 3d rendering tbh | 10:23 |

| imbrandon | or kubuntu ? | 10:46 |
| StevenK | imbrandon: Well, a bug on wlassistant. | 10:46 |
| Admiral_Chicago | imbrandon: i'm doing ichthux, edubuntu, xubuntu, ubuntu, kubuntu | 10:47 |

| imbrandon | hrm | 10:48 |
| imbrandon | i wonder if i can make konsole start "screen bash" not just "bash" when it open &/or opens a new tab | 10:48 |
| === imbrandon looks | ||
| StevenK | Multiple tabs in Konsole each running screen? *twitch* | 10:49 |
| imbrandon | well mostly so i can kill X and never have to worry about what i have running in console, or if i leave on a whim unexpecdly i can ssh in and connect back to them | 10:50 |

| === imbrandon points Burgundavia to StevenK | ||

| StevenK | imbrandon: You know screen supports more than one shell, right? | 10:52 |
| imbrandon | StevenK, no , actualy i dident , i'm a very basic user of screen | 10:52 |
| Burgundavia | StevenK: pm'ed you | 10:52 |
| imbrandon | i just know about "screen bash" ctl+a+d and "screen -DR" | 10:52 |
| imbrandon | other than that nothing | 10:52 |
| imbrandon | StevenK, ^ | 10:52 |
| StevenK | imbrandon: Try Ctrl-A c | 10:53 |
| Admiral_Chicago | amarok crashes, kmail pops up to send a report to the amarok people, then that crashes | 10:53 |
| Admiral_Chicago | nice | 10:53 |
| Fujitsu | imbrandon: Ctrl+A c, and Ctrl+A a. | 10:53 |
| StevenK | And Ctrl-A p and Ctrl-A n | 10:53 |
| imbrandon | Admiral_Chicago, hahah | 10:53 |
| Fujitsu | And those two. | 10:53 |
| imbrandon | Fujitsu, StevenK, great but does me no good unless i know what they do :) | 10:54 |
| StevenK | imbrandon: Try Ctrl-A c | 10:54 |
| imbrandon | ok | 10:54 |
| imbrandon | done | 10:54 |
| imbrandon | seems to do nothing | 10:54 |
| Fujitsu | c creates a new terminal within the screen session, a goes to the previous one or something like that. p to the previous, n to the next./ | 10:54 |
| imbrandon | p prev / n next ? | 10:54 |
| StevenK | Correct | 10:55 |

| === twilight [n=twilight@ubuntu/member/twilight] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| Fujitsu | a switches to the one you were at last. | 10:55 |
| StevenK | Ctrl-a a is a literal Ctrl-A | 10:55 |
| imbrandon | oh man, you guys fskin rock | 10:55 |
| geser | Ctrl-a ? show the key list | 10:55 |
| StevenK | Ctrl-A Ctrl-A on the other hand, switches to the last window you were in. | 10:56 |
| === StevenK slaps Fujitsu | ||
| Fujitsu | Oh, yes. | 10:56 |
| Fujitsu | I never think about it, I just do it out of habit :P | 10:56 |
| Fujitsu | imbrandon: That's like, the entire point of screen. | 10:57 |
| geser | with Ctrl-A [0-9] you can directly jump to the nth screen | 10:57 |
| imbrandon | Fujitsu, not really, the whole reason i started using screen was to start a process on a box i ssh into and close the connection with the program running still | 10:57 |
| imbrandon | nothing more | 10:57 |
| imbrandon | :) | 10:57 |
| imbrandon | past that i just pick little bits up here and there | 10:57 |
| imbrandon | but now i can use just one screen session | 10:58 |
| imbrandon | very very cool, because i normaly had 2 or 3 going untill now | 10:58 |
| StevenK | imbrandon: I suggest you read the manual page. | 10:58 |
| StevenK | Specifically, the "DEFAULT KEY BINDINGS" section. | 10:59 |
| imbrandon | yea i probably should but i figure i have been using it for 3 or 4 years without it i'm reluctant , hehehe | 10:59 |

| imbrandon | yes definately, i spend almost all my computer time ssh'd into 5 or 6 diffrent boxes ( but i normaly just pay attn to the user@host prompt ) | 11:05 |

| imbrandon | heh i'm noticing | 11:11 |
| StevenK | What about screen -x? | 11:12 |
| StevenK | -x Attach to a not detached screen session. (Multi display mode). | 11:12 |
| Jozo- | and scrollback, and cut/paste ... and telnet client ... and ... | 11:12 |
| imbrandon | hrm if i split the screen how can i get to the other | 11:13 |
| imbrandon | eg from top to bottom and back | 11:13 |
| Jozo- | C-a tab | 11:13 |
| Jozo- | and C-a Q removes split | 11:14 |
| imbrandon | ok what about closiing a split | 11:14 |
| imbrandon | lol | 11:14 |
| imbrandon | ok | 11:14 |

| imbrandon | heh i used pine way back in the day just for pico ( now i use nano ( and vim at select times ) | 11:18 |
| imbrandon | ) | 11:18 |
| imbrandon | but thats when i only got 5 mails a daya on a busy day | 11:18 |

| Lutin | giskard: ping | 12:33 |
| Lure | StevenK: why do you bother with wlassistant - it will be droped from default instll in feisty | 12:35 |
| StevenK | Lure: Then you tell all of the Kubuntu Edgy people that wlassistant won't work. | 12:36 |
| StevenK | Lure: Go on, I *dare* you. | 12:36 |
| Lure | StevenK: knetworkmanager does not work for them? | 12:36 |
| Hobbsee | Lure: not for static IP's, etc | 12:36 |
| StevenK | knetworkmanager and NetworkManager don't work for a lot of people. | 12:36 |
| Hobbsee | Lure: and not for a whole lot of crads | 12:37 |
| Hobbsee | *cards | 12:37 |
| Hobbsee | Lure: that was why wlassistant was put in - it probably still needs to be there | 12:37 |
| StevenK | Lure: So, by all means, tell them. | 12:37 |
| Lure | StevenK: ok, so what is the problem that it does not work (it is pretty limited app anyway)? | 12:38 |
| === broonie [i=broonie@cassiel.sirena.org.uk] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| Hobbsee | Lure: yes it doesnt work for anyone. | 12:38 |
| StevenK | Hah | 12:38 |
| StevenK | It certainly won't work for DHCP using networks. | 12:39 |
| Hobbsee | Lure: i think, when we decided to put it in, that no one actually tested it first - or not much? it wont connect to my network, even open (ie, not wpa) | 12:39 |
| StevenK | It will work for static networks, if your default gateway doesn't reverse resolve. | 12:39 |
| broonie | What are the chances of getting a fix for https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/nis/+bug/47815 into dapper? | 12:40 |
| Ubugtu | Malone bug 47815 in nis "/usr/lib/yp/ypxfr produces segmentation fault" [Medium,Confirmed] | 12:40 |
| Lure | Hobbsee: Tonio_ did and he was fine with it - it also worked for me in Dapper - it may be that edgy broke something | 12:40 |
| StevenK | I note wlassistant thinks all encrypted networks are WEP. This is stupid, but I'm not fixing that. | 12:40 |
| Hobbsee | Lure: iv'e never even been able to get it to work under dapper, either, i dont think. but clearly the edgy version is unusable | 12:41 |
| StevenK | The 6 bugs in Launchpad agrees with Hobbsee. | 12:42 |
| === StevenK notes killing NetworkManager every 4 minutes or so is oddly theraputic. | ||
| TheMuso | Meh. Just use /etc/network/interfaces and bring up/down interfaces as you need them. | 12:51 |
| TheMuso | Thats all I do. WHy bother with some magic network utility that probably won't get it right anyway. | 12:52 |
| pygi | Lure, n-m is not mature enough, neither is linux wireless stack mature enough | 12:52 |
| StevenK | TheMuso: You tell you bug submitters that. | 12:52 |
| Lure | pygi: but n-m is planned to be default in feisty - se network-roaming spec | 12:52 |
| pygi | Lure, that will break a lot of stuff! | 12:52 |
| pygi | Lure, url pls? | 12:53 |
| Hobbsee | Lure: it's planned, but that doesnt mean that we have to remove all the old ways | 12:53 |
| pygi | Lure, and anyway, giskard will bring n-m 0.7 to feisty | 12:53 |
| Lure | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkRoaming | 12:53 |
| pygi | but that doesn't mean that n/m will be more mature, and especially doesnt mean wireless stack will become mature overnight | 12:53 |
| pygi | Hobbsee, we actually have to improve old ways | 12:54 |
| pygi | we'll get tons of bug reports | 12:54 |
| Lure | pygi: agree | 12:54 |

| pygi | so what doesn't work? | 12:55 |
| === Hobbsee eats pygi | ||
| pygi | ergh! | 12:55 |
| Hobbsee | pygi: it doesnt work for any network that uses dhcp, it sounds like. StevenK is fixing it | 12:55 |
| Hobbsee | s/is fixing/has fixed/ | 12:55 |
| pygi | nice | 12:55 |
| Hobbsee | seeing as the majority *do*, that's kinda bad | 12:55 |
| pygi | Hobbsee, n-m will need some heavy patching again to work for 1% of population | 12:56 |
| pygi | and so all wireless related packages will need | 12:56 |
| Hobbsee | pygi: that being said, i use n-m all the time, on 2 machines, without a problem | 12:56 |
| Hobbsee | they all need work, but i doubt we'll be removing the stuff that does work | 12:57 |
| pygi | Hobbsee, I understand, yes, but that's you | 12:57 |
| pygi | Hobbsee, they work for me as well, but after manually patching and fixing icon cache problem | 12:57 |
| pygi | Hobbsee, regular users won't bother with stuff | 12:57 |
| Hobbsee | i mean, a few that work for a wider group of people each - that's better than one works for a group of people, and too bad for the others | 12:57 |
| Hobbsee | pygi: what iconcache problem? | 12:57 |
| Hobbsee | pygi: did you file a bug in n-m for that? the solution to that is to call dh_iconcache in debian/rules | 12:58 |
| pygi | Hobbsee, the problem is that "n-m cannot locate resource bla bla" and then it won't start | 12:58 |

| Sp4rKy | please, i've an "out of the box" question | 06:54 |
| Sp4rKy | if i've 2 repo in my sources.list with the same packages (& same version) | 06:55 |
| Sp4rKy | how apt select the mirror for download ? | 06:55 |
| LaserJock | it looks at the versions of the packages and picks the higher version | 06:58 |
| LaserJock | unless you specifically tell it otherwise | 06:58 |

| bhale | it is a pretty obscure question you would probably get the best answer by trying it | 06:59 |
| Sp4rKy | i've try | 06:59 |
| LaserJock | oh, sorry | 06:59 |
| Sp4rKy | i'd switch the order of 2 mirrors in the sources.list, apt-get remove onepackage && apt-get clean && apt-get update && apt-get install thepackage | 06:59 |
| Sp4rKy | and apt got the package from the same server twice | 07:00 |

| rgl | LaserJock, any? | 08:22 |
| rgl | LaserJock, the upgrade is only viable to feisty? | 08:23 |
| LaserJock | rgl: if the version you want is in Debian then it'll get synced | 08:23 |
| LaserJock | once it's in Feisty you can perhaps request a backport to Edgy | 08:23 |
| rgl | LaserJock, it is. but the question is "when" :D | 08:24 |
| LaserJock | it is in Debian? | 08:24 |
| rgl | LaserJock, yes. its at http://packages.debian.org/testing/web/trac | 08:24 |
| LaserJock | then it should be in Feisty when the sync is done | 08:24 |
| ajmitch | feisty has that version already | 08:25 |
| rgl | ajmitch, why it doesn't show up at http://packages.ubuntulinux.org/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?searchon=names&version=all&exact=1&keywords=trac ? | 08:25 |
| ajmitch | because that site isn't always up to date | 08:25 |
| rgl | ah ok | 08:26 |
| rgl | how can I backport it to edgy? I mean, how can I setup apt to download the sources from the feisty repo? | 08:27 |
| zul | i dont think you want to do that quite just yet | 08:27 |
| rgl | I want 0.10 now :D | 08:28 |
| rgl | why shouldn't I zul ? | 08:28 |
| zul | because fiesty just opened but what do i know | 08:29 |

| LaserJock | rgl: just get it manually | 08:31 |
| minghua | rgl: then go ask in #ubuntu, not here, it's simple, just modify /etc/apt/sources.list and do apt-get source | 08:31 |
| LaserJock | it's not worth tweaking apt for one package | 08:31 |
| rgl | ah ok thx | 08:31 |
| minghua | LaserJock: IMO it's relatively safe if you know what you do, since you only need the deb-src line | 08:32 |
| LaserJock | yeah, but for 1 package? | 08:32 |
| zul | it would be easier to go to the archive and download it from there | 08:33 |
| minghua | zul: yes, agreed | 08:33 |
| zul | of course you would still have to know what you are doing | 08:34 |
| minghua | LaserJock: I just don't really think it counts as "tweaking" :-) never said it will be worth it. :-P | 08:34 |

| jdong | siretart: it has a libtovid, which it uses in its python scripts... AFAIK no other app uses its library | 10:21 |
| siretart | Adri2000: if you want it to be overwritten, you need to request a sync manually. further updates in debian will be autosynced then, though | 10:21 |

| siretart | jdong: splitting packages makes sense when you want to save archive space, because large parts are architecture independent, or you want to save lots of dependencies from the user. Or space for stuff he probably doesn't want | 10:22 |
| jdong | siretart: ok, well in this case I guess it doesn't make sense to split the package at all | 10:23 |
| jdong | it's all architecture independent, and one part is useless without the other | 10:23 |
| Adri2000 | siretart: ok, I will request a sync, the debian package is better, first the 5M data files are separated, and I think it will fix one bug reported in launchpad | 10:23 |
| siretart | jdong: yeah, sounds sane | 10:24 |

| minghua | Adri2000: there may be upgrade path you need to consider | 10:35 |
| LaserJock | minghua: hehe, who cares about upgrade paths? | 10:35 |
| LaserJock | ;-) | 10:35 |
| minghua | but honestly I am not so sure what the stand is about universe package upgradeability these days | 10:36 |
| ajmitch | it must be upgradeable or else | 10:36 |
| siretart | a bug is a bug is a bug | 10:36 |
| minghua | LaserJock: I, as a (relatively) long time Debian user, cares about it a lot | 10:36 |
| ajmitch | since a single universe breakage can cause update-manager to fail | 10:36 |
| siretart | which is imo a bug as well | 10:36 |
| LaserJock | ajmitch: isn't that a bit of a bug itself? | 10:36 |
| Adri2000 | mhhh maybe I can request the sync and then if I see that the upgrade fails upload an ubuntuX to fix? | 10:37 |

| minghua | Does a sync request still need to be acked by an MOTU? | 10:43 |
| LaserJock | I believe so | 10:43 |
| minghua | then Adri2000, are you an MOTU? | 10:44 |
| Adri2000 | minghua: no, not yet ^^ | 10:44 |
| minghua | I myself won't request a sync unless I tested the upgrade path | 10:44 |
| Adri2000 | I have just built the debs | 10:44 |
| Adri2000 | I will try to install them | 10:45 |
| minghua | but you may find some other MOTU who agrees with you "sync first, test upgrade path" approach :-) | 10:45 |
| Adri2000 | but is it possible to take a debian package, patch it for ubuntu and upload it (if the debian package is not yet in ubuntu)? I thought it was better to sync first | 10:47 |
| minghua | Adri2000: are you talking about briquolo or not? you just said it's already in ubuntu, but with different packaging | 10:48 |
| Adri2000 | yep, but the debian package is different of the ubuntu one, at least because it has a -data package | 10:49 |
| minghua | and for the general question -- if the debian package doesn't build / doesn't install on ubuntu, then there is no point to sync it first, just patch and upload | 10:49 |
| Adri2000 | err, you said it was different, /me should read the end also | 10:49 |
| minghua | Adri2000: that's the upgrade path I am talking about | 10:49 |
| Adri2000 | ok ok | 10:50 |
| minghua | and why many people here encourage people who what to add software in ubuntu to try getting it in Debian first | 10:50 |
| minghua | Adri2000: in any case I think contacting the ubuntu briquolo uploader/maintainer first is a good idea | 10:51 |
| Adri2000 | no problem during the installation of the debs (having the ubuntu package installed) | 10:52 |
| Adri2000 | yep, ping Tonio_ | 10:52 |

| Q-FUNK | http://seenonslash.com/node/761 | 10:59 |
| Adri2000 | minghua: seems that a fix is needed for briquolo, the .desktop file doesn't work | 11:02 |
| Adri2000 | it is installed in /usr/share/games/applications/ o_O | 11:03 |
| Tonio_ | Adri2000: pong | 11:03 |
| Adri2000 | hi Tonio_ | 11:03 |
| === lucas [n=lucas@ubuntu/member/lucas] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| Tonio_ | yop ;) | 11:03 |
| Adri2000 | it's about briquolo | 11:03 |
| Adri2000 | debian has a package | 11:03 |
| Tonio_ | yes | 11:03 |
| Tonio_ | we also have a package | 11:04 |
| Tonio_ | what is the problem ? | 11:04 |
| Adri2000 | because it's better to use the same package as in debian? | 11:05 |
| Adri2000 | for this kind of package | 11:05 |
| Tonio_ | Adri2000: yes it is but when I packaged it there was no debian package | 11:05 |
| Tonio_ | now debian maintains it, it'll be sync with debian | 11:05 |
| Tonio_ | no problem at this point | 11:05 |
| Adri2000 | ok, you agree with that | 11:06 |
| Tonio_ | sure | 11:06 |
| Tonio_ | the point is I didn't get the package to ubuntu right | 11:06 |
| Tonio_ | into debian sorry | 11:06 |
| Adri2000 | and someone else did | 11:06 |
| Tonio_ | yep and that duplicates, which is not good | 11:06 |
| Tonio_ | but well where is the fault ? | 11:07 |
| Tonio_ | should I package for debian instead of ubuntu or should debian packagers get a look at ubuntu before packaging from scratch ? | 11:07 |
| Tonio_ | I think the second option is better | 11:07 |
| fdoving | as ubuntu use debian as a base, and not the other way around, the first is better for both. :) | 11:08 |
| Tonio_ | fdoving: technically yes, but not "politically" | 11:08 |
| Adri2000 | but maybe it's not easier to maintain a package in debian than uploading a package to revu | 11:08 |
| Tonio_ | not in my opinion at least | 11:08 |
| Tonio_ | I merge all my patches with upstream and I work close to the kde-extras debian packaging team | 11:09 |
| Tonio_ | but if the goal is to get the packages in debian in the first place, what is the need of revu then ? | 11:10 |
| Adri2000 | anyway, Tonio_, seems that the debian package needs a fix for the desktop file (and maybe something(s) else, I haven't looked at everything yet), can I take care of that? | 11:10 |
| Tonio_ | Adri2000: sure | 11:10 |
| === FunnyLookinHat [n=david@64.140.73.93] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| Adri2000 | ok | 11:10 |
| Tonio_ | Adri2000: my package has a patch for the desktop file | 11:10 |
| Tonio_ | all my packages have since upstream desktop files are generally incomplete | 11:11 |
| Adri2000 | a patch for what exactly? | 11:11 |
| fdoving | nite. | 11:11 |
| Adri2000 | because the problem here is that the .desktop file is installed in /usr/share/games/applications/ | 11:11 |
| Tonio_ | Adri2000: correct category, description etc... | 11:11 |
| Tonio_ | nite fdoving | 11:11 |
| Adri2000 | ok, not the same problem | 11:11 |
| Tonio_ | Adri2000: what is your issue then ? | 11:11 |
| Adri2000 | it doesn't appear in the menu | 11:12 |
| Adri2000 | and I don't see anything else in this directory | 11:12 |
| Tonio_ | Adri2000: hum sorry no this package doesn't have a patch from me | 11:12 |
| Tonio_ | I got them merged with upstream so I removed it | 11:12 |
| Tonio_ | Adri2000: really ? | 11:12 |
| Adri2000 | yeah, I don't know if this directory works in debian or if it's a mistake | 11:13 |
| Tonio_ | let me have a look | 11:13 |
| Tonio_ | Adri2000: the default desktop file works for me | 11:14 |
| Tonio_ | misses an icon though | 11:14 |
| Tonio_ | but I can see it in the menus | 11:14 |
| Adri2000 | in the package from debian? | 11:14 |
| Tonio_ | Adri2000: tried to run kbuildsycoca | 11:14 |
| Tonio_ | ? | 11:14 |
| Tonio_ | Adri2000: no the ubuntu package, but it is default | 11:14 |
| Adri2000 | I'm talking of the package from debian :p | 11:15 |
| Tonio_ | I don't touch anything on that point | 11:15 |
| Tonio_ | Adri2000: yes but there shouldn't ve any difference | 11:15 |

| Tonio_ | all files go to their standard directorys (/usr/bin /usr/share etc...) | 11:20 |
