rmjbhello stani12:30
stanii have a simple question, I guess12:31
Burgworkhey stani12:31
staniI am new here (effect of the ubuntu open week)12:31
rmjbwelcome12:31
rmjbso what's your question?12:32
staniI develop SPE, a Python Editor, which some people are so kind to package and put in the universe. However it seems that an extra dependency needs to be defined: python-wxversion. What should I do? Report a bug on launchpad?12:33
LaserJockyou're *the* stani?12:34
staniyes12:34
LaserJockhow cool, I love SPE12:34
stanithanks12:35
LaserJockyeah, a bug on launchpad is the best way to go12:35
staniI was just wondering because the maintainer is the Debian QA Group and I am wondering if the Debian MOTU (is it the same as ubuntu MOTU?) will keep track of launchpad or if they have their own bug tracking system.12:36
StevenKDebian QA Group means the package is orphaned in Debian.12:37
Burgworkunlike Ubuntu, all packages in Debian must have a maintainer12:37
CypherBIOSstani: wow, I love the SPE too, thank you. Really, the Ubuntu package are ugly12:37
=== rmjb wants to see this SPE to see what all the fuss is about
staniI understood that in the Ubuntu Open Week that Debian needs a maintainer, but as now the packaged is orphaned I am wondering who I should contact.12:39
staniI am afraid if I use Launchpad nobody will take action.12:39
gnomefreakrmjb: its nice python text editor/IDEish12:39
Burgworkstani: to maintain a package in Debian is a bit more work12:40
LaserJockstani: well, Launchpad will be ok for Ubuntu12:40
Burgworkhowever, that is the best place for you to do you work, because it will benefit Ubuntu and Debian12:40
LaserJockbut Debian has it's own bug bug tracking system12:40
rmjbstani: unfortunately there seems to be something wrong with your site, I get 502 error on http://pythonide.stani.be/12:40
staniWhat is the url of debian bug tracking?12:41
StevenKhttp://bugs.debian.org12:41
gnomefreakrmjb: its still in the repos afaik12:41
stanirmjb: Yes my project was sponsored by zettai.net who gave free hosting, but they went out of business.12:41
rmjbbummer12:41
staniSo I'll move to another sponsor soon. I got some great offers.12:42
staniI have asked for an ubuntu server hosting, but I am afraid that is hard to find.12:42
LaserJockthere are quite a few Debian servers out there12:44
staniCypherBIOS: why you say the "Ubuntu packages are ugly"?12:44

lotusleafstani: you need free hosting for a FOSS project?12:45
rmjbSPE does look very nice12:45
CypherBIOSstani: some errors on feisty12:45
staniYes, but I was curious for ubuntu servers. I don't know yet any company offering Ubuntu.12:45
rmjbwill use this instead of Geany for now12:45
CypherBIOSstani: relative on packaging12:45
stanirmjb: thanks12:45
gnomefreakwhat is geany?12:45
lotusleafstani: oh, the server has to be ubuntu, then?12:45
rmjbanother python IDE, the best one I saw12:45
rmjbuntil now12:45
gnomefreakrmjb: in repos?12:45
rmjbyep12:46
gnomefreakhmmmm12:46
staniCypherBIOS: which errors12:46
rmjb:)12:46
gnomefreakill try it also. i use a bunch of ides :)12:46
staniActually at the moment I am optimizing SPE for ubuntu.12:46
CypherBIOSstani: I'm not sure about what I'm saying, this is related for me by someone else...12:47
=== StevenK quotes CypherBIOS out of context.
gnomefreakare the packages in -proposed repos supported or kind of like backports repos?12:50
LaserJockthey are temporary12:50
staniHa I didn't know geany will look at it. It looks like a multilingual IDE, while SPE is completely focused on python and has a lot of special features (such as UML, pychecker, ...)12:50
StevenKgnomefreak: The packages in -proposed are undergoing testing before being pushed to -updates12:50
LaserJock-proposed is where packages go to get tested before they go into -updates ,etc.12:50
CypherBIOSstani: If needed, latter,  I'll give you more description about the problems that is happening with my friend12:50
gnomefreakty12:51
rmjbstani: VPS hosting that offers ubuntu: http://www.vpslink.com/12:51
stanilotusleaf: no, it doesn't have to be, but as I switched to Ubuntu, I was just curious if Ubuntu is getting in the server market for hosting12:51
staniCypherBIOS: ok, you can always send me a mail12:51
CypherBIOSstani: :)12:52
lotusleafstani: ah, ok.12:52
staniI'll contact them to see if they would want to sponsor SPE by hosting.12:53
gnomefreakwasnt gnome updated to 2.16 fpr edgy?12:59
gnomefreakor just the other gnome things?12:59
LaserJockyeah, should be 2.1612:59

nolimitsoyaare there any plans on updating thunar for xubuntu? its now a rc, and the irritating bug with the treeview going bananas is fixed, among other things...12:59
gnomefreakthat bothers me a bit :(01:00
nolimitsoyathe thunar version currently in xubuntu is a very old beta, btw.01:00
Adri2000please, any motu for http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?upid=3553 ? it's already advocated, just need one more :)01:00

Adri2000nolimitsoya: there won't be new upstream release in edgy01:05
Adri2000ajmitch: ah :(01:05
Adri2000nolimitsoya: maybe in -backports, you can ask in #xubuntu01:06
nolimitsoyaAdri2000, yes, thats the general idea. however, i understand exeptions are made if there is a good reason, and fixing a very irritating bug and moving from early beta to rc at the same time would be grounds for an expetion if you ask me...01:06
nolimitsoyaAdri2000, no, nothing in backports. still the (now very dated) beta01:06

staniAnother question: I'm using reportbug to file my bug, but it says it will be sent to ubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com. I want to file this bug to the debian bug tracker. Can I use reportbug for that?01:11
Adri2000nolimitsoya: that's what I read in #ubuntu-classroom-chat from a xubuntu dev: <maxamillion> DenisTheMenace: no, the decision for a backport will be made once the stable release of xfce4 happens01:12

ademanor is the problem that i'm calling pbuilder from the package folder? should i be calling it from the folder with the *.dsc in it?02:51
ademanLaserJock: no such folder02:51
ademanand i can't even tell where it should be, should it be package/upstream/  or upstream/ or should it be package/source-tree/upstream/ ?02:52
ademanpackage of course is my own shorthand for eclipse-cdt-3.1.1-0ubuntu1 or whatever02:52

somerville32Hey02:59
somerville32Just wondering, but why isn't there some sort of meta-package to install all the dev/package tools?02:59
ademanexactly? its: eclipse-cdt-3.1.1-0ubuntu103:00
somerville32It almost seems logical to have one (or a few specialized ones)03:00
LaserJocksomerville32: well, that's hard to define really03:00
LaserJockademan: so in eclipse-cdt-3.1.1-0ubuntu1/ there is a tar.gz?03:00
rmjbhmm... how can I set global proxy settings for apt?03:03
ademanLaserJock: no the one above that03:04
LaserJockademan: well, it's looking for it in there I think03:04
ademanhrm ok03:05
ademanbut why's it looking for a tar.gz anyways?03:05
ademanthe uupdate's already been done...03:05
LaserJockbecause it's going to unpack it in eclipse-cdt-3.1.1-0ubuntu1/upstream/03:05
ademank i'll give it a shot03:06
ademanthanks03:06
LaserJockor rather eclipse-cdt-3.1.1-0ubuntu1/source-tree/ is where it's going to build it03:06
LaserJockademan: did you look at the original source package03:06
LaserJock?03:06
ademannot really, i suppose that's a good plan03:07
ademanit has a upstream/source.tar.gz so i guess i'll follow that03:08
rmjbquestion, the proxy settings in synaptic, will they also affect apt-get, aptitude and update-manager?03:13
ajmitchunlikely03:14
ajmitchapt-get & aptitude honour the http_proxy environment variable03:15
rmjbthe format for that will simply be export http_proxy=server:8080 ? or do I have to put the http:// in before the server?03:16

ajmitchat least that's what I have03:17
ademanin a possibly related note, i looked at the targz in upstream/ in the old package and it's absolutely NOTHING like the tar.gz i've got03:19
rmjblet me state my real question, I'm testing a .deb in a vm, testing the install dependencies. I'll test one package, then revert the snapshot and test another. It has a heavy dependency that I want automatically installed when installing the .deb, but I'm using squid to cache it... so I really want to proxy to take effect on Gdebi03:19
rmjbajmitch ^^^ ?03:20
ajmitchrmjb: yes?03:21
ajmitchI don't know what gdebi will honour03:21
ajmitchjust test it & see03:21
ajmitchor use a local mirror of the package03:21
ademanHRM, i think my problem may be that it just plain isnt a source tarball that i've got here...03:21
rmjbyeah... shoot, takes a bout 1/2 hour for the dependency03:21
rmjbah well03:21
ajmitchmust be large03:22
rmjbnah, slow connection03:22
ajmitchcan't you stick it on a local http server?03:22
rmjbif this squid doesn't work will have to do that03:22

Nafallo:-)02:17
xerxasis there a tool to help merges ? 02:17
xerxasmerge.ubuntu.com generates reports 02:17
Hobbseexer02:17
Hobbseexerxas: there's a script called grab-merge.sh on the mom.  use that02:18
xerxasthat mean that it does sth like dget current-version.dsc previous-version.dsc and ubuntu-current-version.dsc 02:18
xerxason the mom ? 02:18

=== Hobbsee has a dir named scripts/ for that purpose
Hobbseexerxas: people use lots of different scripts - why would you?02:20
xerxasalso , I think that https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Packages/Merging should refer to this script 02:21
=== Nafallo has ~/bin in his path ;-)

xerxasHobbsee,  I don't think it needs a rewrite 02:21
=== Nafallo doesn't like to leave his ~ :-)

Hobbseexerxas: why would you pack up a whole lot of scripts, seeing as different people use different ones02:22
HobbseeNafallo: there's a point02:22
xerxasHobbsee,  because you can still choose not to use other's script 02:22

enyca Friend of mine is having the problem with edgy that the built-in vnc server ('desktop sharing') does not seem to _save_ the password correctly. -- i.e. if "require password" is selected and a password is saved in there, and the "ask for confirmation" is not selected -- the passwrd auth DOES work until the system is _restarted_ at whcih time it will NO LONGER work until the password is re-entered in the configuration for 'desktop sharing'07:59

stgrabersnoogie_: si tu sais coder, c'est plutt du cter d'un soft integr  Ubuntu ou en faisant du dbug et correction de bug10:40
stgrabersnoogie_: la cration de paquetage ne ncessite pas de connaissance en programmation sauf s'il faut adapter le code pour qu'il passe sur d'autre architecture10:41
snoogie_Et MOTU c juste packager les softs 10:41
snoogie_ah ok :D10:41
jdong~/bin/madison-sync10:41

snoogie_codaient10:41
jdongyou're not rxvt10:41
snoogie_arf10:42
stgrabersnoogie_: au niveau des outils d'administration d'Ubuntu, le python est prioritaire, C++ est surtout utilis par KDE10:42
stgraberet certains utilitaires Gnome10:42
snoogie_en lisant le guide je commencais a comprendre en plus lol 10:42
stgraberMOTU = Master of the Universe, ce sont ceux choisissant les paquets entrant dans Universe et les packagant (entre autre)10:42
amnesiagpg: secret key not available10:42
amnesiaI did something wrong :)10:42
stgraberdonc les notions de programmation aident mais sont pas ncessaire10:42
snoogie_le python ... j'arrive pas a mi faire et puis comme je code 8h par jour au C++ depuis 8 mois et que j'ai toujours pas saisi toutes les subtilitees de ce langage :D10:43
snoogie_lol10:43
snoogie_Bon ok10:43
stgraberJ'ai appris les baess du python en 1 semaine :), a dpend du language que tu as fait avant10:43
geseramnesia: when did you get this error?10:44
amnesiadebuild -S10:44
stgraberpour python du moment que tu es habitu  l'orient objet, tu l'apprends sans trops de soucis, juste la syntaxe qui est un peu trange au dbut :)10:44
amnesiageser:  debuild -S10:44
snoogie_j'ai fais un peu de perl 10:44
snoogie_mais cet esprit de non-compilation ... :D10:44
stgrabermoi aussi, c'est un language que j'aime bien10:45
snoogie_c abus des fois :D10:45
stgraberpython est gallement non-compil bien que compilable10:45
geseramnesia: does your uid on that key match with the your name+email address in changelog?10:45
amnesiamight not, letme see10:46
snoogie_les fichiers .pyc c ca?10:46
amnesiageser: you're right thanks10:46
stgraberdonc en gros si tu veux coder et utiliser tes notions de C++, je te recommande de regarder les rapports de bugs sur launchpad et si tu en trouves un intressant et dont le logiciel d'intrese, te recuprer les sources, essayer de trouver le bug, ...10:46
stgraberoui10:46
amnesiageser: not sure who I am :)10:46
amnesiaoops. I made a debian package10:47
LaserJockheh10:47
LaserJockthat's a quote to remember10:47
snoogie_ok mais en gnl comment etre sur que je suis le seul a bosser dessus ou que qqun d'autre va pas sortir une correction avant moi ?10:48
amnesiaLaserJock: yeah I mean I was sitting on the bus today thinking about that I should try it. and now look what happened10:48
snoogie_et comment remonter la correction ?10:48
snoogie_fichier .diff ?10:48
stgraberLaunchpad rfrence les bugs rapports par les utilisateurs d'Ubuntu, ensuite les projets ont en gnral leur propre site web avec un outil de rapport de bug10:49
stgraberdonc un moyen est de regarder si le bug est aussi rapport chez eux10:49
stgraberet voir si un patch a t envoy10:49
amnesiaok will upload it to revu and see what the -devel ML says about my proposal10:49
