[03:09] shawarma: There were Ubuntu changes in the distant past, which were 0.0.9ubuntu1, or something like that. Debian had an NMU, making it 0.0.9-0.1. 0.0.9ubuntu1 > 0.0.9-0.1, so 0.0.9ubuntu2 is in fact a fake sync of 0.0.9-0.1. [03:09] Fujitsu: Oh, that *almost* makes sense. :-) [03:09] Fujitsu: I'll leave that one alone. [03:10] There are a couple of other similar ones of mine there. [03:10] Fujitsu: Ok. I just didn't recognize your real name. I skip all the merges with familiar names on them.

[06:00] well, I didn't want grub right now [06:00] jorgp: it's a pure windows box [06:00] no grub [06:00] and installing grub on ntfs is less than fun [06:00] though feasible [06:00] my linux drive died and left a messed up grub [06:01] so the easiest way to still use the computer until a new drive arrives is to fix the mbr and used the dreaded Windows XP [06:01] you can setup NTLOADER to boot into linux if grub worries you [06:02] I sure wish that when you bought a computer they actually gave you a Windows XP CD [06:02] orphean: nah, it's just temporary until my new disk gets here [06:02] I spotted a 160GB Barracuda on newegg for $56.99 [06:03] orphean: yeah, that's what I used to do [06:03] orphean: mainly because once in a while windows would find the compelling need to reassert its dominance over the mbr.... [06:03] haha :) [06:04] so I thought I had 2 fans dying [06:05] turns out 1 was a hard drive, and the other is the fan on my nvidia card [06:08] ah, I thought that is was a duel boot disk [06:08] heh, it *was* [06:09] until I went to wipe the disk today to do a fresh install and it just started throwing IO errors [06:10] jorgp: is that what happens when you put RMS with a disk with nvidia.ko on it? [06:10] no idea, dont have an nvidia card [06:10] hehe [06:10] RMS has a dagger that's +9 against nvidia.ko === jabra [n=jabra@utopia.ccs.neu.edu] has joined #ubuntu-motu === jabra [n=jabra@utopia.ccs.neu.edu] has left #ubuntu-motu [] [06:12] orphean, don't forget it has +8 against fglrx.ko :) [06:13] hehe and RMS rolls 20s ;) [06:14] so why does nvidia get +9 and fglrx +*8 ? [06:15] ESR ninjaed the +9 [06:16] it's easier to do damage against AIGLX? [06:16] hmm, so I noticed some interesting blog behavior [06:17] like jono seems to trump everyone else's post order? [06:17] I was looking at the planets for fedora, opensuse, and ubuntu [06:17] and the only one tied to the US (fedora) has the most non-English posts [06:18] LaserJock: do you know what package holds the drivers for broadcom?

[10:09] from the latest package upload to -proposed [10:10] I *think* [10:10] In that case, I'll count from Colin's message in the bug. [10:10] ok [10:10] I thought you made another upload [10:11] I was pondering making one. [10:11] sflaw and I decided that I didn't really need to. [10:11] since you said on the 28th that it had landed in -proposed, I thought another one had been uploaded [10:11] I presume that the 7 days are up now [10:11] Colin's message was on the 23rd of November. [10:12] So yes. :-) [10:13] The landed in -proposed was in response to Simon saying "Set the bug to Fix Commited" when the package is accepted. [10:13] ok, are you able to give me a debdiff? [10:14] Not yet, since I'm not at home. [10:14] ok, I thought you may have had ssh access to home :) [10:15] ajmitch: The link I'm on is just fast enough for IRC.

This team will process the request and close the bug when it is complete." [12:17] it's already noted on the correct page (DeveloperResources) [12:18] ajmitch: I know. However, that assigning them instead of subscribing them could have lethal consequences is not duly noted.

[12:26] Ok, I'll change it. [12:26] again [12:26] .. [12:26] the person doing the ACK will then subscribe ubuntu-archive [12:26] shawarma: you wrote some specs, and talked about them on ubuntu-devel?

[07:25] no [07:25] bhale: it's muted here for some reson [07:25] well actually [07:25] you never played any songs, it doesnt know what to do :) [07:25] it is based on your listening habits [07:25] from banshee or rhythmbox say [07:25] hmm, right [07:26] oh wawo , how does it know that? [07:26] with a plugin [07:26] do those apps keep a play history ? [07:26] both of them include it by default iirc [07:26] just need to configure it with your account [07:26] it posts each song to the web service [07:26] after you played it [07:26] i see === jonh_wendell [n=wendell@40-88-199-200.vcnet.com.br] has joined #ubuntu-motu [07:26] then it builds a history there [07:26] decides similar users and artists etc [07:26] so it will play stuff on my hd already yes? [07:27] some of it [07:27] I thought it would play stuff from the net [07:27] some stuff your "neighbors" played [07:27] yes from the net [07:27] based on your listening habits... [07:27] it will play things it thinks you will like [07:27] I see. How can I tell it I like blues/jazz etc? [07:27] play blues/jazz [07:27] after configuring RB === sivang trie [07:28] tries === outime I'm back in about 45 minutes [07:29] playing virgin classic rock, [07:29] queen is on !

[07:33] I don't think [07:37] sivang: Did you try playing some songs with Rhythmbox ? I don't see any changes on your last.fm page ... [07:37] sivang: You need to listen to at least half of the song, I think. [07:37] sivang: Otherwise it doesn't count as listened. [07:37] shawarma, shawarma : yes, it's all working now [07:38] bhale: amazing thin [07:38] How much bandwidth does it use? [07:38] bhale: how does it decide what I might lik e? :) === Neonightmare [n=chatzill@67-214.2-85.cust.bluewin.ch] has joined #ubuntu-motu [07:40] I don't get it [07:40] I asked for stuff the sounds like "Pink Floyd" and it brought an amazingly similar song by the Cure [07:40] how does it do that? :D [07:41] sivang: It checks the others users that listened to the same sounds and give you the others they were listening to === adomanski [n=adomansk@p54AFC1F6.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has left #ubuntu-motu [] [07:41] it should be a little bit more complex I think but that's the idea [07:41] stgraber: so it look sthat someone else that looked for something similar to pink floyd, listened to the cure and then it give me it? [07:41] sivang: Just like Amazon can guess which books you might like based on yours and every one else's choices of books. [07:42] shawarma: ah, so that relies on last.fm being already full of users with suggestions and preferences, otherwise this can't work [07:42] sivang: If you have enough statisticla data you can start making VERY informed guesses. [07:42] sivang: Exactly. [07:42] shawarma: did you see axiom go by? [07:43] LaserJock: No, I'm not subscribed to feisty-changes. Yet. [07:43] sivang: it finds people who listened to the same bands as you [07:43] sivang: then it sees what else they listened to [07:43] LaserJock: Yes, I see it. Excellent. Thanks! [07:43] shawarma: can you check to make sure it built ok Launchpad for me === sivang wonders if LaserJock just tried to build launchpad ;=) [07:44] LaserJock: OMG! https://launchpad.net/+builds/+build/280436 7 hours! [07:44] 2006-12-02 15:32:53 UTC (7 hours 10 minutes) [07:44] LaserJock: i386 and amd64 made it in the expected 1 hour 50 minutes.

[07:46] (track) [07:46] If any MOTU has a minute : http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?upid=3576 it should be quite good, thx [07:47] bhale: does Mono have something like python-pexpect in the CLI ? [07:47] bhale: s/CLI/CLR/ [07:47] sivang: there is the "sounds like" thing but not a way to get a specific song (or I don't know it) [07:47] bhale: and in .NET on windows, for that matter [07:48] stgraber: so how does it ask for a specific song that is similar to what I have requested [07:48] anyone know the package that holds the broadcom driver? [07:48] stgraber: There is no way to ask for specific songs. [07:48] not the cutter package [07:48] stgraber: They're not allowed to provide that. [07:49] shawarma: seems logical :) It's not a download website :) [07:49] LaserJock: archive.ubuntu.com gives me 16 Kb/s so it takes a while to download. :-) [07:49] LaserJock: ...but the build logs look fine. [07:50] ok [07:50] bhale: I'm thinking of contributing to Mono upstream, seems like the most prominent CLI project to contribute to, and seems that I will want to create Mono bindings for DAR rather then python ones, I regret not developing hubackup in C# already. [07:50] LaserJock: Ah, it's been synced to the Swedish mirror. I'll be done in no time then. [07:50] bhale: with the new UI and other changes, it's a pain refactoring the code in python === ajmitch [n=ajmitch@ubuntu/member/ajmitch] has joined #ubuntu-motu [07:57] LaserJock: It works like a charm!

In component universe, is optional. Version 4.1.5-7 (edgy), package size 1149 kB, installed size 8064 kB [08:33] is there a particular reason to sync from experimental? === amnesia [n=amnesia@p549DFF5F.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu [08:33] re [08:33] LaserJock: new upstream release: 4.x -> 5.x [08:33] unstable has still 4.x [08:34] ok, but experimental generally means it's an "experimental" package [08:34] so unless there is a particular reason to get it I'd wait until 5.x made it to unstable [08:34] morning [08:35] Adri2000: of course that's just my opinion though [08:35] you could as a real pro like ajmitch [08:35] ;-) [08:35] LaserJock: I thought it didn't go in unstable because of the release of debian etch [08:36] ajmitch: hi [08:36] hi ajmitch [08:37] etch isn't unstable [08:37] etch is testing [08:37] I'm pretty sure it's only unstable -> testing that gets frozen [08:37] ajmitch: do you know ^^?

[08:41] LaserJock: not hard frozen, but close enough [08:41] ajmitch: so come back to me if you have some time, really :) [08:41] ajmitch: ok, so does it make sense to sync from experimental?

[08:46] now I should find 2 motus to review it right? [08:47] afaict sid isn't frozen as such but uploading stuff there thats not intended for etch is strongly discouraged because it can make updating etch a lot more work if people do that [08:52] amnesia, what did you upload?

[09:51] http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?upid=3608, http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?upid=3609 [09:51] Simon80 install and run it inside the feisty chroot? [09:52] plugwash: so then I would need for pbuilder to freeze and let me into the chroot when the build finishes [09:53] i think pbuilder has a command "pbuilder login" which lets you get a shell inside the chroot [09:53] Simon80: you can use pbuilder as a normal chroot, with "pbuilder login" [09:53] oops ^^ [09:53] but i don't bother with pbuilder myself [09:53] yeah, it does... but then I have to build manually.. [09:53] I think [09:53] is it a good idea to test on feisty before uploading then? [09:54] hmm: If you want to participate in the current release cycle, you will want to have a FeistyFawn chroot. [09:57] or even just run feisty on your desktop if you are daring ;) [09:57] yeah, but I don't like doing that early on... things break [10:01] being on topic, how do devs do the packagint? they have a feisty installed so they can package and install their packages? [10:02] or they just do with pbuilder and hope it works (as I do now) [10:02] test in chroots [10:02] test machines [10:02] switch to feisty [10:02] usually some combination [10:03] chroot as in pbuilder? [10:03] k [10:04] Simon80: no [10:04] chroot as in a feisty chroot you routinely log into and run programs in, not the clean-room thing pbuilder maintains [10:04] jorgp: I'm just doing the feisty package, could you check if for me then? [10:07] grr what's the sense to rename a package in feisty to have an added 0 at the end? edgy: libscrollkeeper, feisty: libscrollkeeper0 [10:07] I know it's a debian thing, could never understand why [10:10] might have to do with compiler transitions... but it looks extremely kludgy to me [10:12] mediawiki shows an update for edgy, but some dependencies are unavailable (only shows older versions). can somebody point me to what's going on? === TMM [n=hp@ip565b35da.direct-adsl.nl] has joined #ubuntu-motu [10:14] cmpalmer: you're right [10:14] but it's the backport I'm getting installed [10:14] ~edgy1 [10:14] you might wanna bugreport that [10:14] to the mediawiki package [10:14] you do have both updates and backports in your sources right? === cmpalmer check [10:15] err [10:15] I do === cmpalmer checks === plugwash imagines having backports without updates is asking for trouble [10:15] cmpalmer: what dependencies are not available? [10:16] mediawiki1.7 and mediawiki1.7-math, it says [10:16] cmpalmer: aye, I see that right now [10:16] let me investigate [10:16] *sigh* it worked a week ago.... === cmpalmer bows [10:16] thanks [10:16] I confirm it :> [10:17] pfft mediawiki is now a metapackage [10:17] and mediawiki1.7 is the real package [10:17] which is not in [10:17] whose genius idea is that? [10:17] well, I'll fix that [10:17] not like it's breaking anything per se [10:17] :) [10:17] lol === Adri2000 looking for a Merge-o-Matic guy, found something wrong in a package... [10:18] when pbuilder my package for feisty I'm getting: checking for scrollkeeper-config... no [10:18] and it worked for edgy. it stinks, can someone lend a hand maybe? [10:20] what command does one use to check what distribution they're on? uname won't do it.. [10:20] cmpalmer: I just need to have mediawiki1.7 backported in addition to mediawiki.... no much harm done [10:20] uname -a [10:20] oh [10:20] Simon80: /etc/issue ? [10:20] that's it [10:21] thanks [10:21] Simon80: lsb_release -a is more correct :D [10:22] jdong: how can it be "more" correct? plus, if the OS isn't ubuntu, that command isn't necessarily there [10:23] Simon80: /etc/issue is a user-editable file... it's what's presented at login. Most of my systems have it customized to the point that the ubuntu version is stripped out [10:23] Simon80: and that command is present on any LSB-compliant or lsb-wannabe distro === Alex_ian [n=alexys@host-84-220-181-231.cust-adsl.tiscali.it] has joined #ubuntu-motu [10:23] yeah, but I hoping for a general unix thing I could use [10:23] there's no "generic" for a distro version checker [10:24] uname -a will show you the kernel versions [10:24] indeed [10:24] lsb_release is actually probably the closest you'll get :-/ [10:24] and /etc/*-release is pretty common too [10:24] often times checking what distro you're on takes a bit of detective work === superm1 [n=superm1@ubuntu/member/superm1] has joined #ubuntu-motu [10:28] jorgp: ok feisty package uploaded [10:28] feisty as in the changelog says feisty, right? === ivoks [n=ivoks@ubuntu/member/ivoks] has joined #ubuntu-motu [10:29] ? [10:29] unstable [10:30] oh [10:30] why unstable? === elektranox [n=elektran@p5481D317.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu [10:30] Simon80: what did you mean again? might have missunderstood it [10:31] I mean the dist thing in the changelog next to the version [10:31] in my package it's "unstable" [10:31] not sure who gets to change that, I'm new to packaging [10:32] amnesia: a text editor gets to change that :) [10:33] ajmitch told me that it should be feisty, so I did that [10:33] jdong: yeah but dh_make created that file so... [10:33] lol [10:33] Simon80: ok thanks, will do that then [10:33] I kinda believe ajmitch :> === Alex_ian [n=alexys@host-84-220-181-231.cust-adsl.tiscali.it] has left #ubuntu-motu [] [10:33] he's a good one to believe [10:33] speaking of that [10:33] https://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/packagingguide/C/basic-debhelper.html === jdong changes prevu to set -D $dist-backports [10:34] not like it honestly matters :D [10:34] not like I know what you did ;) [10:34] Simon80: I know that page, did I miss something? [10:35] ah there, I see [10:35] strange that I got "unstable" generated [10:36] yeah, that's cause these are debian tools [10:36] https://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/packagingguide/C/gs-pbuilder.html [10:37] why are there two pbuilder guides???? lol [10:37] jdong: so, in case I missed it... when can I expect to see mediawiki1.7 in the repo? [10:38] could somebody here re-sync the REVU uploaders keyring? [10:38] cmpalmer: I reopened the ubuntu-archive ticket for mediawiki.... the next time ubuntu-archive processes it is when it'll work in the repo [10:38] cmpalmer: I tried poking an archive admin a second ago to just do it, but he refused, so... :) === RedKrieg [n=RedKrieg@ip68-10-83-27.hr.hr.cox.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu [10:39] jdong: thanks. :) [10:42] hey i'm goin NUTS on this eclipse-cdt, is it reasonable for me to mess with debian/rules? [10:42] i mean i haven't yet, but would it be a mortal sin if i did? [10:42] and i wanna get this friggin thing packaged [10:43] what's the situation here? [10:44] cause if you're packaging from scratch, you would need to edit debian/rules, it's basically a makefile === poningru [n=poningru@ip72-209-68-178.ga.at.cox.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu === finalbeta [n=finalbet@d5152A68A.access.telenet.be] has joined #ubuntu-motu [10:51] Simon80: its the eclipse-cdt it's an existing package that depends on the eclipse package. Unfortunately the new version of the eclipse package doesn't work with the current version of the eclipse-cdt, so i need to package an upstream update [10:53] battery running low, g'night === highvoltage [n=jonathan@196.1.61.16] has joined #ubuntu-motu [11:09] ah [11:09] well, if things have changed and debian/rules needs updating, then have at it I guess... I wouldn't know though [11:11] is ok to change debian/rules if it is necessary [11:11] e.g. some packages have patches to install .desktop files which needs to modify debian/rules [11:12] I already needed to update the debian/rules file in two packages to get it build === Burgundavia [n=corey@ubuntu/member/burgundavia] has joined #ubuntu-motu === minghua [n=minghua@ubuntu/member/minghua] has joined #ubuntu-motu === rmjb [n=rmjb@cuscon18007.tstt.net.tt] has joined #ubuntu-motu [11:21] hello, any MOTU here and have time to REVU a package? [11:26] yes, please, we need review! === theCore [n=alex@modemcable229.181-131-66.mc.videotron.ca] has joined #ubuntu-motu [11:29] "Next, ask the REVU admins in #ubuntu-motu or at keyring@tiber.tauware.de to re-sync the REVU uploaders keyring, which grants you upload rights to REVU."can somebody of you do so? btw.: why is this not done automatically :/ [11:30] probably cause launchpad doesn't automatically do it when yuo add yourself to universe contributors === apokryphos [n=apokryph@87-194-86-227.bethere.co.uk] has joined #ubuntu-motu [11:32] why is it not cronned ? [11:32] that's not a cron kind of thing [11:32] well, I guess taht would be a workaround [11:33] but I mean, you want to do it whenever someone adds themselves to universe contributors [11:35] righ [11:35] but just doing it hourly [11:35] shrug === doko_ [n=doko@dslb-088-073-073-245.pools.arcor-ip.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu === vil [n=vladimir@catv-tisnov-86.selfnet.cz] has joined #ubuntu-motu === vil [n=vladimir@catv-tisnov-86.selfnet.cz] has joined #ubuntu-motu [11:40] would dput return an error if my key is not in the list? is the package list updated by cron or automatically? [11:42] every 5 minutes [11:53] if your key is in the list, the package should show up pretty quickly [11:53] I just did this for the first time yesterday night [11:56] mr_pouit: are you sure it's done automatically? last time I heard, it needs manually sync by REVU admins [11:58] mr_pouit: my key had to be manually synced [11:58] minghua: I think new uploaded sources are processed every 5 minutes, but new gpg keys have to be added manually [11:58] yes [11:58] and the REVU deities didn't appreciate my hasty uploading :) [11:59] I think everyone uploaded its first package before having its key added ^^ [11:59] lol [11:59] I did [11:59] I don't know which VCS to use between subversion and bzr for managing my packages. Any recommendations? [12:00] I suggest bzr [12:00] I've recently switched most of my svn repos to bzr [12:00] svn's server-side IMO is not worth the effort for most projects [12:00] and bzr's branching abilities really do come in handy a lot [12:01] I was thinking creating a local svn repos, so the server-side thing isn't a problem for me [12:02] jdong, what do you use for building the packages? [12:02] mr_pouit: yes. and I believe elektranox was asking about the gpg key list (although I admit he was quite unclear) [12:02] bzr builddeb? [12:02] or just pbuilder? [12:02] theCore: pbuilder mostly [12:03] theCore: most of my building is in the context of backporting, in which case I use prevu [12:03] (which is a fancy wrapper around pbuilder for backporting work) [12:03] jdong, oh, ok thanks [12:04] minghua: yes you're right, but he said "package list", so I thought he was speaking about something else [12:04] ^^" [12:04] I meant this list: http://revu.tauware.de/index.py [12:05] :S === elektranox is not very good in english ^^"" [12:05] there's a gpg key list? [12:06] A uploader list, more precisely. See topic. [12:06] elektranox: that list is updated automatically. but if your gpg key is not synced by admins, you can't upload, and your package won't show up there [12:07] There's another thing I am having trouble with: the directory hierarchy. Is there someone that would be nice enough to show me a "template", or a `ls -R' of their packaging environment? [12:07] but is there a list you can check? [12:08] there are no admins online, are they? [12:10] Simon80: yes, in the channel topic [12:10] theCore: no idea about bazaar, but in my SVN repo I just use the most common trunk/, branches/, and tags/ layout [12:11] minghua, that's the launchpad list, but I mean, a revu list to check if your key is synced [12:11] Simon80: packaging layout for bzr-maintained packages? [12:12] ? [12:12] Simon80: sorry wrong person [12:12] lol [12:12] ugh [12:12] I give up for today :) [12:12] time to take a break and work more on my radar detector code [12:12] Simon80: oh, the synced list. no, it's not visible to public AFAIK
