| Simon80 | ah | 02:16 |
| Simon80 | yeah, that's still the last I heard | 02:17 |
| Simon80 | I think they will, I mean, they GPL'd the VM | 02:17 |

| Simon80 | but one could argue that linux is good for them, they DO sell hardware.. | 03:35 |
| Simon80 | joel spolsky had a piece where he says, ok, they're commoditising the software by open sourcing staroffice and stuff, but they're commoditising hardware by supporting java | 03:37 |
| Simon80 | I don't know if that makes sense, cause open source software is made fairly portable just by being open source, which is similar to java | 03:38 |
| Simon80 | what it means is that there's more software that will run on your hardware | 03:39 |
| Simon80 | but at the same time, lots of other people's hardware | 03:39 |
| lifeless | his thing was about complementary products | 03:39 |
| Simon80 | yeah | 03:39 |
| lifeless | so java is about enterprise right | 03:40 |
| lifeless | if you make the enterprise software pervasive | 03:40 |
| Simon80 | not really | 03:40 |
| lifeless | in the context of java & sun hw it is :) | 03:40 |
| Simon80 | yeah, true | 03:40 |
| Simon80 | which is wierd | 03:40 |
| lifeless | things like ME are clearly different | 03:40 |
| Simon80 | whenever I see people using java on a server, I'm like, what? but when I think about it, unless you use fastCGI or something, you're going to be using a scripting lang of some kind | 03:41 |
| Simon80 | php, lisp, perl, python, ASP, .NET (which is like java) | 03:41 |
| lifeless | java is pretty fast | 03:41 |
| lifeless | the hotspot vm - slick as | 03:41 |
| Simon80 | I wouldn't really know.. but my desktop java experience has always left me wishing for a native app | 03:42 |

| rmjb | one question about depends, recommends and suggests though | 05:13 |
| Simon80 | Laser: I need a review :) | 05:13 |
| rmjb | iriverter needs java to start, but needs mplayer, mencoder and ffmpeg to function, should they all go under depends? | 05:14 |

| rmjb | nah, just look pretty | 05:17 |
| Simon80 | lol | 05:17 |
| rmjb | so depends | 05:17 |
| rmjb | thanks | 05:17 |
| Simon80 | does it need all three to be useful? | 05:17 |
| rmjb | yep | 05:17 |
| Simon80 | well then | 05:17 |
| Simon80 | lol, nobody will want it without them, right? | 05:17 |
| rmjb | just wanted to know if depends is only for what's needed to get the prog running | 05:18 |
| rmjb | Laser_away: I'll send you that email now, thanks again | 05:18 |
| Laser_away | no, more like things that make it actually work | 05:18 |
| Simon80 | heh, no, but that's probably in the debian policy manual | 05:18 |
| Simon80 | which is rather descriptive | 05:18 |
| Laser_away | if they are optional put them in Recommends | 05:18 |
| Simon80 | though lintian seems to be more detailed sometimes | 05:18 |
| Simon80 | like complaining that my extended description lines are too long | 05:18 |
| Simon80 | it's not in the DPM | 05:19 |

| Simon80 | sure | 05:27 |
| Simon80 | stepmania and stepmania-data | 05:28 |
| Simon80 | but I hope you prefer preserving the upstream tarball over repacking it to remove upstream cvs cruft | 05:28 |

| Simon80 | hehe, sorry | 05:46 |
| Simon80 | lemme fetch it | 05:46 |
| Hobbsee | ajmitch: true | 05:46 |
| Simon80 | you could just go to revu.tauware.de and find it... but one sec | 05:46 |
| crimsun | yes, I could, but then I wouldn't have asked for it. | 05:47 |
| Simon80 | lol | 05:47 |
| Simon80 | http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?upid=3662, http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?upid=3663 | 05:47 |
| Simon80 | both are needed | 05:47 |
| Simon80 | one is just data | 05:47 |
| crimsun | for 3662, have you considered stripping the cvs copies/data to generate a 3.9+ubuntu.orig.tar.gz? | 05:51 |
| Simon80 | ...others have, I thought it was a bad idea? | 05:52 |
| Simon80 | I mean, like, I don't see why it's better to complicate things by changing the orig tarball just for the sake of the cruft | 05:52 |
| crimsun | depends what you consider "good practice" | 05:53 |
| crimsun | the clean target won't remove said cruft regardless | 05:53 |
| Simon80 | I thought preserving upsteam was good practice | 05:53 |
| crimsun | it surely is. | 05:53 |
| crimsun | having no cruft in the orig.tar.gz is also good practice. | 05:54 |
| Simon80 | what do you mean about clean? I know it doesn't remove it from the sources, but at least nobody can complain that it's interfering with the build | 05:54 |
| Simon80 | I don't see why no cruft is better practice than preserving upstream though | 05:54 |
| crimsun | preserving upstream is not necessarily best given one's approach | 05:55 |
| crimsun | see automake1.9, for instance. | 05:55 |
| Simon80 | what about automake? | 05:56 |
| crimsun | look at the orig.tar.gz | 05:56 |
| Simon80 | you want me to source it right now? | 05:56 |
| crimsun | automake1.9_1.9.6+nogfdl.orig.tar.gz | 05:57 |
| Simon80 | ok, that's irrelevant, that's a licensing issue | 05:57 |
| crimsun | that's not irrelevant. | 05:57 |
| === TheMuso [n=luke@ubuntu/member/themuso] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| Simon80 | to this cruft issue, yes, I would say | 05:57 |
| crimsun | I wouldn't. | 05:57 |
| Simon80 | that is one example of a reason to repack | 05:57 |
| crimsun | if I were rolling stepmania, I'd strip the cruft. | 05:58 |
| Simon80 | but licensing issues aren't the same as cruft issues | 05:58 |
| Simon80 | from common mistakes: | 06:00 |
| Simon80 | The following are not reasons to change the original tarball: | 06:00 |
| Simon80 | Files need to be removed to keep the .diff.gz small (e.g., files created by autotools). Everything that needs to be deleted should be removed in the clean rule. Since the .diff.gz is created with diff -u, you will not see removed files in the .diff.gz. | 06:00 |
| Simon80 | I delete anything that needs to be deleted in the clean rule, just like it says | 06:01 |
| Simon80 | https://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/packagingguide/C/basic-mistakes.html | 06:01 |
| crimsun | again, that's your approach. | 06:01 |

| Hobbsee | crimsun: you're a core dev arent you? | 06:02 |

| crimsun | Simon80: I've not said it's bad, no. | 06:02 |
| crimsun | Hobbsee: yes | 06:02 |
| Simon80 | ok, cause a couple of other MOTUs seemed to be saying that leaving it in was THAT bad | 06:02 |
| crimsun | Simon80: personally it's unclean and not best practice, but it's not wrong. | 06:03 |
| Simon80 | one of them even went so far as to say that a package not putting prefs in ~/.package was equally as bad as cruft | 06:03 |
| Simon80 | I agree it's unclean, but I feel just as unclean repacking just for cruft, and the guidelines in the the common mistakes discussion seem to agree with me, and I think those guidelines make sense | 06:04 |

| crimsun | oh it's certainly community! | 06:25 |
| Simon80 | crimsun, explain? | 06:25 |
| Simon80 | about my control, I mean | 06:25 |
| Amaranth | ajmitch: Did you know they changed everything from MIT to GPL? | 06:25 |
| Amaranth | They had a document saying it was GPL but all the code still said MIT. They just finished actually changing it | 06:26 |
| Amaranth | So now they can take freely from compiz but compiz can't touch their code | 06:26 |
| ajmitch | that's... special | 06:26 |
| crimsun | Simon80: RageFileDriverZip.cpp, src/crypto/, RageSurfaceUtilsPalettize.cpp, libmad, etc. | 06:26 |
| Simon80 | oh, copyright? | 06:26 |
| crimsun | yes | 06:27 |
| crimsun | sorry, meant copyright | 06:27 |
| Simon80 | I copied that all verbatim from the same tarball.. | 06:27 |
| Lathiat | Amaranth: im pretty sure you can *actually* relicense LGPL to GPL tho | 06:27 |
| Lathiat | right? | 06:27 |
| crimsun | Simon80: that's my point :) | 06:27 |
| Simon80 | yeah | 06:27 |
| Simon80 | what should I do though? | 06:27 |
| Amaranth | Lathiat: They can. | 06:27 |
| Amaranth | Lathiat: They're talking about 'freeing' my code right now. | 06:27 |
| crimsun | Simon80: since those files aren't actually in the source package for stepmania-data, they shouldn't be included in stepmania-data's debian/copyright. | 06:28 |
| Simon80 | lol, if it was freeing, it wouldn't be legal | 06:28 |
| ajmitch | Lathiat: it's not a matter of whether it's possible, it's a matter of whether it's right to do so | 06:28 |
| crimsun | Simon80: the relevant info for the actual files in -data should be | 06:28 |
| Lathiat | ajmitch: i beleive their perfectly within their right too | 06:29 |
| Lathiat | that said | 06:29 |
| Lathiat | the whole beryl thign seems like a big mes | 06:29 |
| ajmitch | Lathiat: sure, if they want to just fork everything & never worry about being able to give code back | 06:29 |
| Lathiat | and im jsut goign to stay away from it | 06:29 |
| Simon80 | crimsun: the original copying file is in the / of the orig | 06:29 |
| ajmitch | which is pretty much how things have gone now | 06:29 |
| Lathiat | nod | 06:29 |
| Simon80 | so you can see that's all I have to work with from upstream | 06:29 |
| Lathiat | what about MIT->GPL tho | 06:29 |
| Lathiat | is that legal? | 06:29 |
| Amaranth | Haha, Quinn said he wishes he could fork ever BSD project just to make it GPL | 06:30 |
| Amaranth | Fucking looney tunes. | 06:30 |
| Simon80 | Lathiat, yes, stepmania ddoes it | 06:30 |
| === Lathiat laughs | ||
| Simon80 | I mean, they include gpl code | 06:30 |
| Simon80 | which implies that yes, it's gpl compat | 06:30 |
| Simon80 | wow, talk about anal about licensing, lol, I mean, sure you may have a different opinion from the BSDs, but GPL forking it is a hostile move | 06:31 |
| === DarkMageZ [n=richard@59.167.29.110] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||

| crimsun | if there currently isn't, there should be a patch made available :-) | 06:39 |

| mnepton | or something like that. | 06:39 |
| Simon80 | crimsun: patch? you talking about stepmania? if so, I'm confused what is being patched | 06:40 |
| crimsun | well, xfwm4 4.2+ have compositing, but imo it's not worth switching environments just to gain that. YMMV. | 06:40 |
| crimsun | Simon80: I'm referring to the Ubuntu packaging guide | 06:40 |

| superm1 | its been sitting up there a while | 06:47 |
| crimsun | thanks | 06:47 |
| superm1 | it was derived from flashplugin | 06:47 |
| superm1 | nonfree | 06:47 |

| superm1 | once this sort of package is down for ivtv-firmware, i am planning to do the same sort of thing for pchdtv 2k,3k cards and ATI HDTV Wonder cards, with firmware packages for them | 06:48 |
| crimsun | superm1: hmm, you might want to take a look at the current flashplugin-nonfree source package, then, because Bart cleaned it up significantly. | 06:48 |
| Simon80 | crimsun: what kind of clarification, do I need proof of what was said about it or something? | 06:49 |
| Simon80 | Hobbsee: from Debian? good enough for Debian but not Ubuntu? | 06:49 |
| crimsun | Simon80: yes, including e-mail is sufficient, but actual changes to upstream cvs are even better | 06:49 |
| Hobbsee | Simon80: i'm not sure how that slipped through | 06:49 |
| superm1 | how current is the "current"? I think i actually took this one from sabfdl's repository or someone elses that used a flashplugin 9 | 06:50 |
| superm1 | and modified from that | 06:50 |
| Simon80 | Hobbsee: what? | 06:50 |
| Hobbsee | Simon80: from debian - i dont know how those couple of packages got into debian | 06:50 |

| Simon80 | they haven't been sued, really, but it's evidently an issue, cause 4.0 features a revamped, intentionally different theme and terminology | 07:01 |
| crimsun | that's not really any issue, since it'll go into universe due to its license | 07:01 |
| crimsun | s/any/an/ | 07:01 |
| Simon80 | universe? | 07:01 |
| Simon80 | ....... | 07:01 |
| Simon80 | universe is for free stuff, no? | 07:02 |
| crimsun | yes. Is there anything in stepmania that isn't? | 07:02 |
| Simon80 | no | 07:02 |
| Simon80 | not in the source, definitely | 07:02 |
| crimsun | then its target is universe. | 07:02 |
| Simon80 | but I mean, I don't see how putting it in universe moots the whole infringement thing | 07:03 |
| crimsun | Ubuntu tends to follow Debian's policy with such regards. | 07:03 |
| Simon80 | is that in the DPM? | 07:03 |
| Simon80 | if so, what section of the DPM | 07:06 |
| Simon80 | 2.3? | 07:06 |
| crimsun | I don't see anything in DPM regarding it. | 07:09 |
| crimsun | s/policy/practices/ | 07:09 |
| crimsun | e.g., libmad is in Debian main | 07:10 |
| crimsun | (even mplayer) | 07:10 |
| crimsun | if it turns out there are license restrictions, then both stepmania and stepmania-data may have to go to multiverse | 07:11 |
| Simon80 | I think the only issue is the infringement, I would assume that upstream wants their data to be free along with the code, and the copying file seems to indicate that | 07:17 |
| crimsun | right, and thus universe candidates | 07:18 |
| Simon80 | but what I would think the issue is is that upstream says it's free, but it infringes on Konami | 07:23 |
| crimsun | that's not enough to punt it into multiverse | 07:24 |
| Simon80 | ah, sweet | 07:25 |
| Simon80 | well then I'll just ignore it and ask them how they want to license it :D | 07:25 |
| Simon80 | I mean, I don't think any of the data is a blatant rip, iirc, it's just that they (Konami) may have reason to call it a derivative work in the same way LKMs are derivative of the kernel | 07:26 |

| crimsun | superm1: is the non-native-version-but-lacking-orig.tar.gz intentional | 09:23 |
| superm1 | well i got a bit confused how to version this | 09:24 |
| superm1 | so if it should be versioned the way i did it, yes | 09:24 |
| superm1 | should it have been 20061007ubuntu1 instead? | 09:24 |
| crimsun | do you plan to submit the source package to Debian? | 09:25 |
| superm1 | well not in the near future | 09:25 |
| crimsun | how often is(are) the firmware(s) updated? | 09:26 |
| superm1 | but i had assummed if it ever would be submitted to debian, there had to be a way to differentiate between the upstream, debian, and our versions | 09:26 |
| superm1 | every few months | 09:26 |
| crimsun | I would probably use 0.20061007, then. | 09:26 |
| crimsun | thus making it a native package | 09:26 |
| superm1 | so then would it be 0.20061007ubuntu1? | 09:27 |
| superm1 | or just 0.20061007 | 09:27 |
| crimsun | I would just use 0.20061007 for now | 09:27 |
| superm1 | okay. i'll update that then | 09:27 |
| crimsun | well, let's rethink | 09:28 |
| crimsun | you'll run into some nasty situations with Debian NMUs | 09:28 |
| crimsun | unfortunately that's unavoidable | 09:28 |
| crimsun | so you can either use the pseudo-epoch (0.date), or use 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, etc. | 09:28 |
| crimsun | depends how strongly [and immediately obvious] you want to tie the version to the firmware date | 09:29 |
| superm1 | well i think pseudo-epoch makes more sense | 09:29 |
| superm1 | at least to me | 09:29 |
| superm1 | well firmware date is the easiest to go by | 09:29 |
| superm1 | thats what ivtvdriver.org goes by instead of versions | 09:29 |
| superm1 | their last release prior to this was in july, so it was something along the lines of 20060701 | 09:30 |
| superm1 | and this way if someone else was to ever look at the package, it's immediately obvious that there is a new version available without having to match a date to a decoder for versions | 09:31 |
| crimsun | ok, that part sounds fine. Do you intend it to be native to Ubuntu/Debian, then? | 09:34 |
| superm1 | yes | 09:34 |

| superm1 | That would be no legal issue at all I think (but IANAL still | 09:49 |
| superm1 | applies). There is also a way to use the redistributable Windows | 09:49 |
| superm1 | driver and extract the firmware from there on the fly. Perhaps that's | 09:49 |
| superm1 | the legally cleanest approach currently. If you're interested I'll dig | 09:49 |
| superm1 | out my notes on how to extract the firmware. | 09:49 |
| superm1 | that is a small snippet from some conversation, i'm not sure if that would suffice | 09:49 |

| superm1 | Ok. I'll send him a note and see if he can add a bit about licensing on his site | 09:55 |
| crimsun | it needs to be clear from either upstream's license or from his e-mail(s) that he has been given explicit permission to host them, and that third parties have upstream's consent to download from his site | 09:55 |

| superm1 | In the meanwhile - if this doesnt work out for some reason or another, can the fallback be to extract from the windows driver on the fly | 09:56 |
| superm1 | eg download the windows driver during install and extract from that. it for sure does have redistribution rights | 09:57 |
| superm1 | (and before axel had this license with hauppauge straightened out, that was the only way to get this firmware) | 09:59 |

| superm1 | so other question though - something like pcHDTV also has firmware, and I was going to do a very similar package for it. but again there is no license on the site directly, so I would have to email them to find out about how they feel about redistribution as well correct? | 10:01 |

| wsb | I'd like to submit a citrix ica client package to the multiverse repository, is it possible, or do there are some licence issues ? | 11:08 |
| crimsun | there shouldn't be if it's to go into multiverse. | 11:09 |
| crimsun | as long as its license allows us to redistribute it, it should be fine. | 11:10 |
| wsb | I haven't found anything about submiting to multiverse, do I need to submit to universe, or is there another way ? | 11:11 |
| crimsun | you don't submit to a particular component; the archive admins handle that based on the licenses in the source package. | 11:13 |
| crimsun | you follow precisely the identical procedure regardless of component | 11:13 |
| wsb | ok fine | 11:13 |
| wsb | other small question, on the install script from the source, the user have to accept the EULA, to I need to make something similar in the package (in debconf... or postinst) ? | 11:14 |
| crimsun | ouch, EULA acceptance | 11:15 |
| crimsun | well, yes. | 11:15 |
| crimsun | a debconf template is one of the easier ways | 11:15 |
| wsb | ok, any idea where I can find an exemple or tutorial ? | 11:16 |
| crimsun | sure, flashplugin-nonfree | 11:16 |
| crimsun | beware it defaults to -accepting- the eula, however. | 11:16 |
| crimsun | obviously that's a trivial change | 11:17 |

| Adri2000 | wsb: apt-get source flashplugin-nonfree | 11:26 |

| tsmithe | what's elbuntu? | 08:20 |
| Lutin | LaserJock: yes | 08:20 |
| Sp4rKy | tsmithe: Enlightenemnt based Ubuntu distro | 08:21 |
| Sp4rKy | /j #elbuntu for more information :) | 08:21 |
| tsmithe | ah, thanks Sp4rKy | 08:21 |
| Sp4rKy | LaserJock: yes | 08:21 |
| Sp4rKy | it's the "old" Ebuntu | 08:21 |
| crimsun | Sp4rKy: why wouldn't you want entrance on revu? | 08:26 |
| Sp4rKy | crimsun: it's always the same problem | 08:26 |
| Sp4rKy | it's a part of the E17 project | 08:26 |
| Lutin | crimsun: because all the lib it relies on are not in revu, and won't be for awhile | 08:26 |
| crimsun | but why is revu the blocker? | 08:26 |
| Sp4rKy | and the main dev of E17 (raster) doesn't want we put any part of E17 in official repository :) | 08:26 |
| Lutin | crimsun: revu is not the blocker. raster is, as Sp4rKy said (and i can understand that) | 08:27 |
| crimsun | revu's not an official repository, so I see no reason why the source packages shouldn't go onto revu | 08:27 |
| tsmithe | hi crimsun | 08:27 |
| tsmithe | could you take another look at asoundconf-gtk? | 08:27 |
| crimsun | tsmithe: tomorrow, yes. I haven't slept in three days, so I'm not going to do any more reviewing. | 08:28 |
| tsmithe | ok | 08:28 |
| tsmithe | cool | 08:28 |
| tsmithe | that's a long time :) | 08:28 |
| dholbach | crimsun: :-( | 08:28 |
| === dholbach hugs crimsun | ||
| Lutin | crimsun: the goal of revu is to put the packages in ubuntu, right ? | 08:28 |
| crimsun | Lutin: yes, but it's more importantly a place to have peer review of packaging. | 08:29 |
| tsmithe | keep them oiled and in good working order | 08:30 |
| tsmithe | and nice looking ;) | 08:30 |
| Lutin | crimsun: the point is, we can't put packages in revu just to have them reviwed | 08:30 |
| crimsun | but you can in some other repo? | 08:30 |
| crimsun | that sounds shady. | 08:30 |
| crimsun | and I don't buy it at all. | 08:31 |
| Lutin | crimsun: not sure I understood what you mean | 08:31 |
| crimsun | Lutin: my question regards why revu can't be used for review. That's its primary purpose. | 08:32 |
| crimsun | there's no binary repo associated with revu; people can't add deb lines to sources.list(5) | 08:33 |
| LaserJock | in other words, REVU can be used for any reviewing | 08:33 |
| Sp4rKy | LaserJock: crimsun yes of course | 08:34 |
| Sp4rKy | but package putted at revu.tauware.de will be uploaded in universe after 2 validation, right ? | 08:34 |
| crimsun | it's never automatic | 08:34 |
| Sp4rKy | but indeed, we may use our own revu platform | 08:34 |
| crimsun | a member of ubuntu-dev must manually upload the source package to ubuntu | 08:35 |
| Sp4rKy | crimsun: i think motu have a lot of work | 08:35 |
| LaserJock | what we're saying is you can use REVU | 08:35 |
| Sp4rKy | yes, we'll do | 08:35 |
| Sp4rKy | but on our own server | 08:36 |
| LaserJock | why not use ours? | 08:36 |
| Sp4rKy | because we've many & many packages | 08:36 |
| LaserJock | if you've already got accounts it seems logical | 08:36 |
| LaserJock | we already have 140+ | 08:36 |
| Sp4rKy | we have smthg like 190 packages ! | 08:36 |
| Sp4rKy | (deb packages) | 08:36 |
| Sp4rKy | we've account :) | 08:37 |
| crimsun | it's not the number of packages that matters; it's the quality. | 08:37 |
| Sp4rKy | crimsun: of course | 08:37 |
| Sp4rKy | but we don't want overload revu with 150+ packages which don't go to universe | 08:38 |
| crimsun | anyhow, revu's there; I'd use it, but of course you're free to choose your own approach | 08:38 |
| Sp4rKy | crimsun: i really think revu is a very good tool | 08:38 |
| Sp4rKy | and we probably try to use it at our server | 08:39 |
| === doomsday- [n=doomsday@home.cameuh.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| Sp4rKy | do you really think we can upload our packages to revu.tauware , and spend MOTU time with them ? | 08:39 |
| LaserJock | 190 NEW packages for E17? | 08:40 |
| LaserJock | I thought it was more like 20 or so | 08:40 |
| Sp4rKy | nop | 08:40 |
| crimsun | Sp4rKy: do you hope to get any sort of peer review by MOTU (or DD/NM)? | 08:40 |
| ajmitch | maybe 190 binary packages | 08:40 |
| Sp4rKy | there isn't 190 source pkge | 08:40 |
| Sp4rKy | but 190 deb pkge | 08:41 |
| LaserJock | oh | 08:41 |
| Lutin | LaserJock: about 20 source pkge for e17 + some stuff around | 08:41 |
| ajmitch | still a lot | 08:41 |
| Sp4rKy | 26 source pkge for i386 arch :) | 08:41 |
| Lutin | LaserJock: but the core libs and E itself are only 6-7 source pkgefs | 08:41 |
| Sp4rKy | sorry for misunderstanding :p | 08:41 |
| Adri2000 | crimsun: haven't yet reached my email for the oo2c sync? :) | 08:42 |
| Sp4rKy | crimsun: we like , but i think motu have already a lot of work | 08:42 |
| Lutin | crimsun: yes, we'll get any sort of peer review by MOTU (or DD/NM) | 08:43 |
| Sp4rKy | if we can, we'll help you, and so maybe we could put our package to tauware | 08:43 |
| crimsun | I'll get to it tomorrow. I'm a bit tired atm. | 08:44 |
| Lutin | crimsun: if I understood you correctly, you're saying that we can put our packages on revu, and even if they're advocated, say 'no, we don't want that to be in universe" ? | 08:44 |
| crimsun | ^ Adri2000 | 08:44 |
| Adri2000 | crimsun: ok, np :) | 08:44 |
| crimsun | Lutin: sure. I'm fairly sure no one in ubuntu-dev is going to be uploading E17 packages to Ubuntu. | 08:45 |
| Sp4rKy | crimsun: if it's really no a problem for you (motus) , we're really happy to get this help ! | 08:46 |
| Lutin | crimsun: hum ... I'm going to think seriously about that, if I can be sure nobody will upload it (if it gets advocated) | 08:46 |
| Sp4rKy | and of course, make our best to become MOTU too and work you :) | 08:46 |
| crimsun | Lutin: I'm pretty sure none of us are going to advocate them, either. | 08:46 |
| Sp4rKy | isn't it Lutin ? | 08:46 |
| Lutin | Sp4rKy: lol | 08:47 |
| Sp4rKy | :) | 08:47 |
| Lutin | crimsun: ok | 08:47 |
| Lutin | crimsun: because of its devel state ? | 08:50 |
| crimsun | yes | 08:50 |
| Lutin | ok | 08:50 |
| Sp4rKy | crimsun: don't you think motus have enough work without those packages ? | 08:51 |
| crimsun | Sp4rKy: absolutely, the MOTU have tons of work already. | 08:51 |
| Sp4rKy | so if at this time we can do without overload tauware, but just with some dev/packagers/motu who help us, it's better, don't you think ? | 08:53 |
| crimsun | if you can't convince MOTU to go to revu, what makes you think they'll go to yet another site? | 08:53 |
| Sp4rKy | crimsun: we don't convince | 08:54 |
| Sp4rKy | people who are interested by our project (E17 repo + elbuntu) come with us | 08:54 |
| Sp4rKy | and so we ask them for help | 08:55 |
| Sp4rKy | crimsun: all our packages which are in the repo work, but they are probably not all completly compliant woth debian policy & ubuntu packaging way | 08:56 |
| crimsun | that should be your foremost goal as package maintainers | 08:56 |
| Sp4rKy | and, as we want make our package as good as possible, we need some help for some package :) | 08:56 |
| Sp4rKy | crimsun: is it | 08:56 |
| Sp4rKy | but i/we can't say we're sure than all our package are completly compliant | 08:57 |
| Lutin | I can say I'm sure they're not ^^ | 08:58 |

| superm1 | i already wrote a package for it | 11:41 |
| superm1 | and i'm keeping it under lock and key at http://dl.ivtvdriver.org/ubuntu/dists/feisty/ivtv/ | 11:42 |
| LaserJock | ok, and what is the debian version? | 11:42 |
| superm1 | 0.8.1-2 | 11:43 |
| superm1 | which will only work on 2.6.18 kernels | 11:43 |
| LaserJock | ok, well I think as long as you start from the debian package and just update it to 0.9 | 11:43 |
| LaserJock | just call it 0.9-0ubuntu1 | 11:43 |
| superm1 | yea thats exactly what i did, except that i called it 0.9-0ubuntu0ivtv1 for now since its sitting on the ivtv driver website | 11:44 |
| superm1 | so just change it to match us and then post to a bug | 11:44 |
| LaserJock | do you know how big the diff between 0.8 and 0.9 is? | 11:45 |
| superm1 | i didn't have to change any packaging actually. it all just worked using the newer upstream version | 11:45 |
| LaserJock | yeah, but how big is the diff in the upstream version? | 11:46 |
| superm1 | oh i haven't done a diff on that yet | 11:46 |

| superm1 | give me a sec and i'll grab both and do it | 11:46 |
| tsmithe | hi CarlF1 | 11:48 |
| superm1 | about 15K difference it looks like | 11:48 |
| tsmithe | urgh | 11:48 |
| CarlF1 | FK! not f1... grrr | 11:48 |
| CarlF1 | hi tsmithe | 11:48 |
| === elektranox [n=elektran@p5481C0F4.dip.t-dialin.net] has left #ubuntu-motu [] | ||
| LaserJock | superm1: ok, throw it into a bug report, but just make sure to say what you're doing | 11:49 |
| LaserJock | CarlF1: is that how you ask for help? :-) | 11:49 |
| === rmjb [n=richard@cuscon20649.tstt.net.tt] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| superm1 | which needs to be attached exactly, just the diff between upstream versions and the new diff.gz, dsc? | 11:49 |
| LaserJock | just debdiff between the current fiesty version and yours | 11:50 |
| superm1 | k | 11:50 |
| LaserJock | and say that that's what you did | 11:50 |
| LaserJock | so we don't try to apply the debdiff to the Debian package | 11:50 |
| superm1 | k | 11:50 |
| superm1 | anyone particularly to subscribe? | 11:51 |

| rmjb | Hey LaserJock | 11:52 |
| LaserJock | hi rmjb | 11:52 |
| rmjb | I saw that the packaging guide got some more content since I read it | 11:52 |
| rmjb | has that update made to lulu yet? | 11:53 |
| LaserJock | probably not | 11:53 |
| LaserJock | I think we are most likely going to drop lulu | 11:53 |
| LaserJock | or perhaps just update when it's changed significantly | 11:53 |
| LaserJock | making good looking pdfs for print is really hard | 11:54 |
| rmjb | hmm... got some money for Christmas so I was going to buy myself a present of an Ubuntu Packaging Guide! | 11:54 |
| LaserJock | you could do that | 11:54 |
| LaserJock | or you could get the latest PDF and have a printshop print it out | 11:54 |
| rmjb | I'd want to get the most complete version I can though | 11:54 |
| rmjb | ah, that might be a solution | 11:54 |
| LaserJock | well, we'll see | 11:55 |
| rmjb | there's pdfs on doc.ubuntu.com? | 11:55 |
| LaserJock | yeah | 11:55 |
| LaserJock | well, help.ubuntu.com | 11:55 |
| LaserJock | doc. probably doesn't | 11:55 |
| rmjb | how often is help updated with the content from doc? | 11:55 |
| LaserJock | when it's released | 11:55 |
| LaserJock | so help.u.c has the breezy, dapper, and edgy docs | 11:56 |
| rmjb | ok | 11:56 |
| rmjb | I'll check it and see | 11:56 |
| LaserJock | doc.u.c is just built from our svn repo | 11:56 |
| rmjb | thanks | 11:56 |
| rmjb | the section on patching was added for edgy right? | 11:57 |
| rmjb | I'm trying to see what it is I missed | 11:57 |
| rmjb | it looks so | 11:58 |
| LaserJock | yeah | 11:58 |
| LaserJock | I haven't really done much of anything for Feisty yet | 11:58 |

| rmjb | is there a colour version available? with the slick cover that's on lulu? | 12:02 |
| LaserJock | I don't think so | 12:03 |
| LaserJock | you might be able to email he -doc list and convince somebody to make one :-) | 12:04 |
