fdovingimbrandon: it's a compilefix to make the package compile on ppc. + minor improvements.12:16
fdovingit'll probably be the last version of that package, as schedutils will be included in the next util-linux release (2.13).12:18
imbrandonfdoving: ok uploaded , /me is afk for ~1 hour12:23

hollywoodbI'm curious about sudo behaviour in (k)ubuntu... after a few days using 6.10 I have anywhere from 5 to 20 'sudo' processes Sleeping, and similar numbers for kdesu12:45
orkidtry asking in #kubuntu12:46
Riddellit's a fair developer question12:46
Riddellalthough I can't recreate the problem12:47
orkidtrue, but i thought it might get better support there12:47
hollywoodbI've asked there a couple times this past week, no real answers.12:47
Riddellyes, you'll get more of a developer answer here :)12:47
hollywoodbI'm not really familiar with sudo other than how to use it, same goes for kdesu ;)12:47
Riddellkdesu does start a redundant sudo, before the real sudo12:47
Riddellbut there's no reason why it should be sleeping12:47
fdovingdoes sudo on the commandline work as expected? 12:47
hollywoodbfdoving: yep, works fine12:48
hollywoodbalthough I can't always recreate the problem, it seems a bit random12:49
fdovingdo you have a bunch of sudos running now? 12:49
fdovingsleeping.. that is.12:50
hollywoodbfdoving: no, fresh boot not too long ago12:50
fdovingok.12:50
hollywoodbI believe it may be linked to running synaptic from Kmenu, as it seems there's about a 30% chance nothing will happen (visually) other than startup notification... one second12:54
hollywoodbhttp://rafb.net/paste/results/Ddp5wJ22.html12:54
hollywoodbthat's what I get immediately after a 'failed' attempt to start synaptic via kmenu12:55
fdovinghollywoodb: next time you experience it, you can run: 'for pid in `pidof sudo`;do cat /proc/$pid/cmdline;echo \n;done' from konsole, and then save the output to a file and come back. I guess it'll say something like '/usr/bin/sudo-uroot/usr/bin/kdesu_stub-n' - then it'll be kdesu magic.12:55
fdovingcorrect.12:56
fdovingbut that's only one.12:56
hollywoodbfdoving: I bet if I keep launching synaptic I can get some more ;)12:56
fdovingit didn't start, it just sleeps in the background? 12:56
hollywoodbfdoving: correct, its working now, but about 30% of the time I get the startup notification (bouncing cursor, etc), and nothing else but that12:57
fdovinghmm.. is this edgy? 12:57
hollywoodbfdoving: aye12:57
fdovingyou're in the admin group, and the admin group is in /etc/sudoers, right? 01:00
fdovingyou haven't modified /etc/sudoers? 01:00
fdovingdo you experience problems with the Administration Mode.. buttons in system settings? 01:00
hollywoodbfdoving: no problems there, I'm in admin, /etc/sudoers is correct...01:02
fdovingyou can -try- to add your user on a separate line in /etc/sudoers, If it works it must be a bug in sudo.01:03
fdoving.. i've seen various threads on forums etc. with that solution.01:03
fdovings/solution/workaround/01:03
fdovinghaven't experienced problems with kdesu in edgy though.. 01:04
=== allee [n=ach@allee.mpe.mpg.de] has joined #kubuntu-devel
hollywoodbfdoving: I'm wondering if it isn't kdesu... I'll keep playing around and seeing if its just synaptic, or I can get the same effect with 'Administrator Mode', Adept, other things that use kdesu... if it persists I'll try adding myself to /etc/sudoers as well01:04
fdovinggood.01:04
fdovingplease come back with your testresults :)01:04
hollywoodbfdoving: will do, though will probably take a few days to get some reliable numbers ;)01:05
fdovingsure, not a problem :)01:06

raphinkit's not about bibletime09:36
raphinkit's about the sword-text-arasvd package09:36
Hobbseethey're all providing sword-text09:37
raphinkthe problem is that bibletime suggests sword-frontend09:37

raphinkwhich is a virtual package provided by all sword-text_*09:37
raphinkand arasvd is just the first one in the list09:37
Hobbseeraphink: yes, so i changed it to recommend sword-text-web, so it's in engly09:37
Hobbsee*eng09:37
Hobbseeyes09:37
raphinkyes, but no09:37
raphinkI don't agree09:37
raphinkit should recommend the sword-text virtual package09:38
LathiatHobbsee: also has the added advantage of being available to me from everywhere i go and sometimes even from my phone :)09:38
HobbseeLathiat: true09:38
raphinkit's aptitude that's faulty, the not the package09:38
raphink:p09:38
Hobbseeraphink: but the sword-text virtual package that doesnt exist09:38
raphinkif people want to use aptitude and install suggested packages by default09:38
raphinkit's not my fault09:38
raphinkyes it does exist Hobbsee09:38
Hobbseeraphink: yes, well, you can fix aptitude instead.  09:38
raphinkit's not about fixing aptitude09:38
Hobbseeit's provided by - it's not a straight package09:38
raphinkif people choose to use aptitude, they deal with the consequences09:39
raphinkwhich is that it installs tons of crap you don't need09:39
Hobbseehow would you prefer to fix it?  you're free to revert my changes, if you want09:39
Hobbseehow does apt handle it?  doesnt apt install recommends by default too now?09:39
raphinkapt doesn't install suggested packages09:39
raphinknot that I know of09:39
raphinkor recommends09:39
raphinkit only install depends09:39
Hobbseesarah@sarah:~$ show bibletime | grep sword-text09:40
HobbseeRecommends: sword-text, sword-dict, sword-comm09:40
raphinkand considers that people are smart enough to read the recommends and suggests fields09:40
Hobbseeit's recommends.  and i believe that's changing?09:40
=== Hobbsee checks
Hobbseeyou're right, apt still doesnt install by default09:40
raphinkthankfully09:40
raphinkit'd be a mess otherwise09:40
raphinkdealing with server installations09:40
Hobbseeso the bug is really only about aptitude - are you suddenly saying that you dont care about aptitude users?09:40
Hobbseetrue that09:40
raphinkif apt installed all the recommends each time09:40
raphinkso well09:41
raphinkpeople choose to use aptitude09:41
Lathiatrecommends should be used better i guess09:41
raphinkthey deal with the fact that they get lots of stuff09:41
Lathiatfor 'dependencies' that wont break the apckage if not installed09:41
raphinkI'm not responsible for this09:41
raphinkI'm sorry to take it this way Hobbsee09:41
raphinkbut I've seen aptitude break things, break metapackages stuff and so on09:41
Hobbseetrue.  so the recommends only affect aptitude users.  do we fix the recommends for them?  or do we just say "screw you, for not using the deafult install method"09:41
raphinkwhile apt-get works properly09:41
Hobbseei know that.  but we probably do need to support it.  09:42
raphinkwhat is the spec for the recommendation field in Policy?09:42
crimsun7.209:43
crimsunit doesn't say that virtuals can't be used.09:43
raphinkright09:43
raphinkI think aptitude shouldn't take the first package matching the virtual package09:43
raphinkit should use debconf to give a list of available packages providing it09:43
raphinkand let the user choose one or more09:43
raphinkthat's where the problem is09:44
raphinkthat aptitude will take the first matching package09:44
raphinksame for apt actually09:44
raphinkwhen dependencies are |09:44
Hobbseetrue09:44
raphinkit takes the first one09:44
raphinkinstead of asking to choose09:44
viviersfRiddell, hello, i need sum info [;z09:45
viviersf*plz09:45
raphinkso if you want the second option, you have to install it first, otherwise it will installl the first one09:45
raphinkHobbsee: you get the reason why I didnt' fix this bug though09:45
raphink(didn't know it was reported on LP in the first place, I some users had complained about this arasvd thing)09:45
Hobbseeraphink: true that.  09:45
raphink(and everytime they were using aptitude)09:45
Hobbseeraphink: indeed.  so obviously aptitude's screwed, but the workaround to that is to default to english, presumably09:46
raphinkso I just told them to use an install manager that let them control what they install, and it would be better09:46
raphinkHobbsee: I don't call that a workaround09:46
Hobbseeseeing as the arabic package anyway is installed with all the arabic language packs, as a rdep of ichutux live09:46
Hobbseewhat's better?  09:46
raphinkHobbsee: although if you're going to do that, please put sword-text-kjv instead09:46
Hobbseeyou're free to change it, if you wanted09:47
raphinkbecause web is not a recognized translations by many people09:47
raphinksure09:47
Hobbseeyet kjv is old english?09:47
raphinkI'd rather think of a better solution though09:47
Hobbseei'm fine doing it, if you want09:47
Hobbseetrue09:47
Hobbseeraphink: want me to take care of it, as i've got it here?09:47
raphinkyes Hobbsee, but some people (for some reason) consider it to be the only proper translation into english09:47
Hobbseetrue09:47
Hobbseei think they're nuts, but true :)09:47
raphinkI don't agree with them either Hobbsee, but they are numerous09:47
raphinkand it's true that KJV is a very good translation09:48
Hobbseeyeah09:48
raphinkmy choice would be to recommend WLC and TR though09:48
raphink:)09:48
Hobbseewhat's TR?09:48
raphinkTextus Receptus, Old Greek New Testament09:48
raphinkand WLC is Westminster Codec, Old Hebrew Old Testament09:48

alleefdoving: about UNRELEASED.  I would just  replace the unreleased entry with the kubuntu entry and only add a note :  Added debian changes from alioth: ..09:03
fdovingallee: ok.09:03
alleefdoving: at the top you can then list what you changed additionaly09:03
alleefdoving: about branches....09:04
alleefdoving: have not investigated how this works.  fabo (ping;) wanted to look into it.09:04
fdovingok.09:05
alleefdoving: as long as the change is valid for debian & kubuntu  just commit to trunk09:05
fdovingWould be great to have a central place to commit changes.09:05
allees/just//09:05
alleewhen we need kubuntu specific changes, then we have to use branches of course09:06
fdovingI could version this the debian-way then.. and have the changes commited to alioth.09:06
alleefdoving: pkg-kde-extras was added to buildserver.net wich build sid/etch/sarge & edgy,dapper pkgs automaticly.09:07
fdovingnot that it's in any way necessary.09:07
fdovingnice :)09:07
fdovingwhere are those packages to be found? 09:07
fdovingmultiple arches too? 09:07
alleefdoving: for this work automaticly I assume the kubuntu branch needs to be at a special place.  Not looked into this yet09:08
doelmanhi09:08
doelmananyone experience with pptp?\09:09
fdovingdoelman: what's the problem with it? 09:10
doelmani can't connect to the windows vpn on my work using pptpconfig09:10
alleefdoving: http://buildserver.net   (but today it seem to have (web?) problems)09:10
doelmannot on kubuntu, not on mandriva09:10
fdovingdoelman: ok. I have very little experience with the client side, I have setup the server side a few times.. 09:11

doelmanthe server is running windows09:12
alleefdoving: ah, one more thing about UNRELEASED.  It's kept like that until upload to debian happens.  If you kwlan changes are valid for debian too.  Leave it, commit to trunk and ask on pkg-kde-extras ml for an upload.09:13
fdovingallee: ah.. smart :)09:14
alleefdoving: yeah, then you can pick the original and no ubuntu1, no merging later ;)09:14
fdovingthat's the idea, do everything once, and proper. in debian, and then just let the magic-scripts do the rest for ubuntu and universe.09:15
alleefdoving: yeah. this may I maintain digikam* kipi* pkg for a long time :)09:16
allees/may/way/09:16
tomaallee: do the ftp masters have to accept mailody before the builds happen?09:19
alleetoma: yes09:19
tomaallee: how long does that take approx?09:20
alleetoma: in my between 1 day and 6 weeks (worst ;)09:20
tomaallee: what happens when i release rc2?09:20
alleetoma: I'm not sure how fast stuff is currently handled.  Depends on time in release cicle.  Maybe #debian-qt-kde knows more09:21
tomahmpf09:21
tomaokay09:21
alleetoma: rc2 is no problem.  when rc2 is upload, ftpmaster checks latest one09:22
tomao ok09:22
tomagreat09:22
alleetoma: my last pkgs (some moon back) took only 1-3 days09:22
tomaallee: i'ld like to see some build logs before the final09:23
alleetoma: and that it's for experimental  on the other hand may speed it up ;)   AFAIR the work in first upload first served mode.09:23
alleetoma: mhmm, should buildserver.net give you this?  AFAIK they check and build as long as it's UNRELEASED09:24
tomaallee: its down since the upload09:24
tomacant chack09:24
alleeyeah. :(09:24
tomabefore that it had data of june, so i'm starting to think its doing something now ;-)09:25
alleedid you bug kk@ about it (as listed in the web page?09:25
tomano09:25
tomai'm the patient type ;-)09:25
allee:)09:26
fdovingallee: are the upstream orig.tar.gzs commited to svn aswell? 09:27
fdovingfor ../tarballs that is.. 09:27
alleetoma: about the -dbg pkgs.  Doesn't krashmanager in kubunt download gdb and -dbg on demand09:27
allee^ AFAIK09:27
alleefdoving: no orig.tar files   as well as upstream no sources09:28
tomaallee: no idea at all09:28
alleefdoving: so in 95% of the cases alioth has content only in debian/09:28
alleefdoving: but svn-buildpkg has support to only svn add/remove upstream files that are patched + debian dir of course09:29
fdovingallee: where does buildserver.net go for orig.tar.gzs ? 09:29
alleefdoving: but I'm a fan of all changes in debian/09:29
fdovingLet's say I bump the version in pkg-kwlan/trunk/debian/changelog to 0.5.6-109:30

allee(without +)09:30
alleethat the way the buildnet server download the orig file09:30
fdovingah.. it's the watch file.09:31
fdovingthat is so smart.09:31
alleenever tried it, because I usually work on pkg before the official release09:31
fdovingwhy doesn't ubuntu have this? 09:31
alleewhat? watch files?  They have09:32
fdoving(launchpad got soemthing, but it's to complicated and lacks docs all over the place)09:32
fdovingwatch files, yes, but i'm thinking of the idea with a huge repo with most packages debian/ dirs in.09:32
fdovingand a debian/rules entry to get the orig.tar.gz. It's so clever.09:33
alleefdoving: they try hard with bzr in lauchpad.09:33
fdovingI uploaded kio-apt to bzr/launchpad. but I think the idea is to get the upstream source into launchpad aswell.. and that's not so clever imho. (you can add upstream svn/bzr/repos, etc). 09:34
fdovingdidn't really understand it that well.09:34
fdovingI'll do it the debian way for now. It's more elegant.09:34
alleefdoving: well having all source as other advantages, but needs much more resources.09:34
fdovingwhat about the homegrown projects with only tar.gz releases?09:35
alleefdoving: then debian in in the tarball and to run the rules file you already need to have the tarball ;)09:36
alleebrb09:36
fdovinghmm.. how is get-orig-source trigered from svn-buildpackage?09:38
alleefdoving: svn-buildpkg uses the watch file09:39
alleefdoving: get-orig-source was newly added when the buildserver.net support was added09:40
alleefdoving: about 0.5.6-1  when it's out, replace current kwlan (0.5.5-2)  with it.  As long as UNRELEASED is used, the is no official 0.5.5-2 pkg09:41
fdovingallee: http://rafb.net/paste/results/slcBcJ94.html09:43
fdovingThat's what happens when i move the orig.tar.gz away from ../tarballs/09:44
fdovingit doesn't download anything. because nothing triggers debian/rules get-orig-source09:44
fdovingis there a switch to svn-buildpackage I can't find? 09:44
fdovingto make it download? 09:45
fdovingah.. there is --svn-prebuild09:52

fdoving..try to remember something about converting tar.bz2s to tar.gz on the fly when running debian/rules get-orig-source (which again uses dpatch-get-origtargz, which uses the info in the debian/watch file if everything else fails.. ). 11:20
Hobbseeunbz<tab>, gzip -9 resulting tar.  easy11:23
fdovingi know, but some existing tool -must- provide this functionality.11:24
