seb128Mithrandir: if that works for you ...09:59
seb128Mithrandir: http://live.gnome.org/TwoPointSeventeen for reference09:59

fabbionecjwatson: i phear a lot of code there and tons of bugs.. 10:00
cjwatsonfabbione: might need to dlopen libssl though, or something like that, otherwise we'll pull libssl into the initrd10:00
fabbionecjwatson: yes that too...10:00
seb128Mithrandir: I'm happy to keep like that if you are happy to freeze on tuesday evening, that makes us ship with almost crack of the day new GNOME for herds ;)10:01
seb128Mithrandir: otherwise shifting one week would be better, though it would conflict with the distro sprint by example10:02
Mithrandirseb128: no, I'd move them out, as in, a week later.10:03

iwjThere is a one-line fix which I haven't yet double-checked for safety.11:34
iwjWe can either 1. fix this bug in edgy-updates; 2. make update-manager edgy->feisty use feisty's apt (depends on soyuz change and generally a bit of a palaver) or 3. use Breaks only in and referring to main.11:35

fabbioneor do you prefer to upload?11:44
fabbione(all works for me..)11:44

fabbionedebcommit ?11:46
=== fabbione digs
cjwatson(dunno if you use debcommit --release normally; I like to standardise on that for installer work because, lacking bzr tags, it makes releases easier to find)11:46
cjwatsonit's in devscripts11:46
fabbionereading...11:47
pitticjwatson, Mithrandir: for apache2.2, we need to promote 'apr' to main; it's just a split-out from the former apache package, are you fine without an MIR?11:47

pittihi slomo__11:49
slomo__pitti: i would be fine with dropping it, especially when considering that it's insecure... but at least avahi is using it...11:50
pittislomo__: then we should teach avahi not to11:50
cjwatsonpitti: no, it's fine. do you have the updates prepared?11:50
pitticjwatson: yes, I have, sources are on rookery11:50
cjwatsonpath?11:51
pittirookery:/srv/language-packs.ubuntu.com/{dapper,edgy}-updates-proposed-20061205/sources-update/*sources.changes11:51
iwjmvo, cjwatson: OK, I've just double-checked the code and it very clearly has absolutely no effect in the absence of any Breaks fields so the worst case is that it breaks upgrades to feisty (but that's what it's actually fixing, of course).11:51
slomo__pitti: right... but are you really sure nothing else uses it? what about n-m for example? and how would the solution for avahi look like? it's only a dbus method that allows setting the zeroconf hostname and was requested by n-m upstream11:51

pitticjwatson: argh, s/sources/source/, my bad11:52
fabbionecjwatson: so update changelog .. debcommit --release .. upload11:52
fabbionecjwatson: ok all worked fine i guess11:52
fabbionecjwatson: thanks for the guidance11:52
pittislomo__: but for avahi, our modified at_console would be actively wrong11:52
cjwatsonpitti: ah yes11:53
cjwatsonfabbione: yes11:53
pittislomo__: so perhaps we should modify our dbus patch to just behave like libpam-console, i. e. at_console matches everyone being logged in locally, not just the currently active session11:53
slomo__pitti: what does n-m do to prevent unrestricted access to the interfaces?11:54
pittislomo__: for programs where the difference matters (like g-v-m and g-p-m) we can just continue using their patches which check the forground console themselves11:54
=== CypherBIOS [n=cypher@ubuntu/member/cypherbios] has joined #ubuntu-devel
pittislomo__: allows access to at_console=true and context=default11:56
pittislomo__: the context=default scares me11:56
pittislomo__: in the long run, the difference (at_console and current_console) just has to be added/fixed upstream11:56
slomo__pitti: ok, so n-m has exactly the same problem... hm, i have to leave for ~1 hour or something... let's talk about it again when i'm back, ok? :)11:56
pittislomo__: so ATM our nm-applet doesn't work correctly with or without the dbus at_console patch11:57
pittislomo__: yes, let's11:57
sivanghmm, n-m works quite nicely here, no issues so far (I followed some nice howto somewhere)12:00
pittisivang: probably just out of coincidence, that two nm-applet's will do the same thing at the same time12:01
sivangpitti: maybe, at least it's working far better then the ifupdown setup I had before12:02
sivangpitti: also nicely supports all of my WAP-PSK networks12:02
sivang(e.g. auto-detects that a key is required, asks for them, sets up and connects)12:02
pittiinfinity, Mithrandir: was there a specific reason to rename apache2-common to apache2.2-common? this is a real PITA for correct upgrades (which maintain enabled modules, etc.)12:03
pittiinfinity, Mithrandir: for example, we want to enable mod_userdir by default for fresh installs, but telling apart a fresh install from an upgrade isn't trivial12:04
Mithrandirpitti: yes, apache2-common and apache2.2-common aren't ABI compatible12:05
=== Adri2000 [n=Adri2000@unaffiliated/adri2000] has joined #ubuntu-devel
Mithrandirthe alternative is the biggest conflicts line the world has seen12:06
pittiMithrandir: enabling mod_userdir is our only Debian delta, btw, and IIRC infinity wanted to fix that in Debian, too12:06
pittiMithrandir: but anyway, Debian's version a2enmod's a lot of stuff by default12:06
pittiMithrandir: does that mean you are fine with deliberately changing the users' configuration on upgrades?12:06
Mithrandirpitti: uh, Debian doesn't enable mod_userdir?  That's easily enough fixed.12:06
pittithat breaks the Golden Rule12:06

=== jonh_wendell [n=wendell@200165129086.user.veloxzone.com.br] has joined #ubuntu-devel
Mithrandirpitti: it upgrades fine in the trivial case; people do too much weird shit with their apache configs in a lot of cases than we can reasonably handle.12:07
Mithrandirso in those cases, we just throw our hands up in the air and leaves the admin to fix.12:08
pittiMithrandir: ok12:08
Mithrandirlike, there's no reasonable way we can do the authn/authz split automatically.12:08
=== jonh_wendell [n=wendell@200165129086.user.veloxzone.com.br] has left #ubuntu-devel ["Bye"]
MithrandirI'm sure thom'd love to elaborate further. :-)12:08
pittiMithrandir: I just feel a bit nervous about automatically enabling security relevant stuff like userdir without telling the admin12:08
pittiMithrandir: but I'm happy to merge it for now and discuss this further in a Debian bug12:09
Mithrandirpitti: you can check whether /etc/apache2/mods-available/userdir.load exists and if not assume that the userdir module didn't exist before.12:09
Mithrandirpitti: actually, #debian-apache on OFTC is a better place to discuss the development.12:09

=== ogra_ [n=ogra@p548AEEB9.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel
pittiKeybuk: but you need something in the user's session that actually listens to dbus12:10
Mithrandirpitti: it's a low-traffic channel and it sometimes takes a bit of time to get responses for people, but it's a useful place for discussions.12:10
pittiKeybuk: e. g. it would be possible to talk to notification-daemon (with some su wrapping, etc.)12:10
pittiMithrandir: thanks, will do that12:11
thom(the list of modules enabled on 2.0 is more or less meaningless compared to 2.2 in a lot of cases, so the upgrade will almost never work right, as tollef pointed out)12:11
pittiKeybuk: but the problem is that at boot time (when avahi might already get disabled), there's no user session yet12:11
pittiKeybuk: thus I needed to decouple the process: the dhcp script sets the tag, and the user session picks up the tag12:11
pittiMithrandir: hm, checking for the presence of the file wouldn't work for fresh installs12:12

twbOne thing the debian branch does is move debian/changelog to debian/changelog.upstream, and then use that file iff the host is Ubuntu.01:38

twbYou're right.01:58
cjwatsonthe more usual approach is to just change the files and let bzr remember what the other side has, rather than carrying around silly .debian and .ubuntu files01:58
cjwatsonI believe Tollef has had debates with the Debian casper people about their packaging already ...01:59
twbSo I should bzr rm the .debian file and bzr mv the .ubuntu one back to just debian/changelog?01:59
Mithrandircjwatson: their first diversion is a commit with a diffstat of:  31 files changed, 957 insertions(+), 253 deletions(-)02:00
cjwatsonyeah, same with debian/control if you haven't already02:00
Mithrandirsomehow, I've put off merging that for a while. :-P02:00
twbOK.02:00
cjwatson(I see there's some weirdness there already, but debian/control is another hardcoded file and messing with it in the build process is a bad idea unless you REALLY know what you're doing)02:00
twbWhat will bzr do when the next merge from casper/debian tries to edit the (now deleted) file?02:00

tkamppeterdoko, ping02:06
dokotkamppeter: pong02:06
twbHmm.  So for every commit I should put a note in debian/changelog?02:07
tkamppeterdoko, can you have a look at bug 67892?02:07
UbugtuMalone bug 67892 in hplip "HPLIP failed to start PyQt/Qt missing" [Medium,Confirmed]  http://launchpad.net/bugs/6789202:07
tkamppeterI have made a suggestion there about how to package HPLIP to fix the problem of Python/Qt not being there by default. WDYT?02:08
=== ivoks [n=ivoks@backup.grad.hr] has joined #ubuntu-devel
Mithrandirtwb: make sure that every commit is documented in debian/changelog, yes.  Unless it's just fixing up an earlier commit in the same upload and the previous changelog entry covers it.02:09
twbOK.02:09
dokotkamppeter: the extra desktop file seems to be a merge error02:10
twbWhen I'm merging in casper/debian changes, it is sensible to put integrate their changelog entries into debian/changelog, or should I just add a single-line note `merged casper/debian rNNN' to the latest entry?02:10
tkamppeterdoko, is somewhre an automatic mechanism which removes the "NoDisplay=true" lines in the .desktop files if Python/Qt is there?02:11
Mithrandirtwb: in that case, I'd merge both the changelog entry and note it in the latest one too.02:13
twbOK.02:13
dokotkamppeter: what do you mean?02:13
tkamppeterdoko, if we take the hplip.desktop away, as it is there in error, there remain 3 .desktop files (for hp-toolbox, hp-sendfax, and hp-fab) which all contain a line "NoDisplay=true". This means the entries do not get visible in the menus.02:15
dokotkamppeter: yes, that's intended02:15
tkamppeterNow if the user has Python/Qt on his system (either a Kubuntu or package installed manually) the menu entries still tay invisible.02:16
tkamppeterThis would mean that the user has to open the menu editor to make them visible.02:16
geserdoko: I overlooked your sync request for wireshark and did a merge. should i close the sync request?02:16

Mithrandirsimontol: use the alternate CD?02:20
tkamppeterSo no I am suggesting in that bug report instead of using "NoDisplay=true" lines moving the .desktop files into a separate package named "hplip-gui" which requires Python/Qt.  If the user installs "hplip-gui" Python/Qt gets automatically installed.02:20
