| plugwash | afaict some funding agencies wan't stuff that they fund to be freeer than GPL, that seems perfectly reasonable to me | 12:14 |
|---|---|---|
| LaserJock | yeah | 12:15 |
| plugwash | or the agency doing the funding wants to use it in thier own propietry stuff | 12:15 |
| Simon80 | Laserjock, LGPL | 12:16 |
| LaserJock | I guess my main complaint with the GPL is that on one hand it's so free, but on the other hand is so restrictive | 12:16 |
| Simon80 | for that very reason | 12:16 |
| LaserJock | mhm | 12:16 |
| Simon80 | but the restrictiveness is what makes it so good | 12:16 |
| LaserJock | I'm not so sure | 12:17 |
| Simon80 | the so called copyleft | 12:17 |
| LaserJock | yeah, I can see in the beginning where copyleft was important | 12:17 |
| Simon80 | without it, people would be more apt to flip flop and release closed code | 12:17 |
| LaserJock | I just think it's hampering a lot of growth | 12:17 |
| Simon80 | where is growth being hampered, huh? | 12:17 |
| LaserJock | because everybody hoped on the GPL bandwagon and now places where it could grow it can't because of copyleft | 12:18 |
| LaserJock | in this case chemical software | 12:18 |
| Simon80 | lol | 12:18 |
| Simon80 | I think your demand is unreasonable though | 12:18 |
| Simon80 | it's not growth in that area if you can't GPL it | 12:19 |
| LaserJock | nah, I just think something like LGPL might be better | 12:19 |
| LaserJock | why? | 12:19 |
| Simon80 | well, unless you just mean open source growth or something | 12:19 |
| LaserJock | open source yes | 12:19 |
| Simon80 | well then | 12:19 |
| Simon80 | you could always write open source code that still falls within the funding requirements then | 12:19 |
| LaserJock | right | 12:20 |
| LaserJock | but this is what I'm saying | 12:20 |
| Simon80 | what ARE you saying? | 12:20 |
| LaserJock | in my field we have a GPL'd library that is supposed to be the standard for chemical information transfer | 12:20 |
| LaserJock | but many projects don't use it because it's GPL'd | 12:20 |
| LaserJock | so the only way for it to be the standard is for *everything* else to be GPL'd | 12:21 |
| plugwash | have you tried talking to its developers about getting it placed under a freer license? | 12:21 |
| Simon80 | mmhmm | 12:21 |
| === jdong [n=jdong@ubuntu/member/jdong] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| LaserJock | which has caused people to reject the standard and write something else that they *can* use | 12:21 |
| Simon80 | personally, I think that it's totally up to the developers whether they want more users or more GPLed software | 12:21 |
| LaserJock | this is what I'm talking about with the GPL "bandwagon" | 12:22 |
| LaserJock | I just think many people just GPL stuff because it's obvious | 12:22 |
| LaserJock | but it can cause problems for other's in the future | 12:22 |
| plugwash | yep, have you told the libraries devs this? | 12:22 |
| plugwash | and if so how did they respond? | 12:23 |
| Simon80 | I dunno, by the time you've written some code, you've thought about the ramifications of the license | 12:23 |
| Simon80 | I definitely have.. and I would use the GPL by choice | 12:23 |
| LaserJock | I suppose, but these are scientists we're talking about | 12:23 |
| Simon80 | indeed, who else should be more supportive of the GPL than scientists? | 12:23 |
| LaserJock | plugwash: well, this is the debate going on right now, hence why I'm thinking about it :-) | 12:23 |
| LaserJock | well, they aren't | 12:23 |
| LaserJock | scientists have some of the worst licenses I've ever seen | 12:24 |
| Simon80 | indeed | 12:24 |
| plugwash | the GPL has its place, but libraries that are supposed to be the reference implementation of a standard are not that place | 12:24 |
| Simon80 | and they should freaking wise up, they're on the forefront of expanding human knowledge, and they should act like it, lol | 12:24 |
| LaserJock | Simon80: yes, but it's very difficult | 12:25 |
| Simon80 | plugwash: I suppose that's a valid point, but it depends how pervasive the standard is | 12:25 |
| Simon80 | what is very difficult? | 12:25 |
| LaserJock | I'm part of an open standards, open source, open data chemistry group | 12:25 |
| plugwash | Simon80 if you wan't the standard to be pervasive then GPLing the standard is not the way to achive that | 12:25 |
| Simon80 | no, clearly not | 12:25 |
| plugwash | and generally gaining wide acceptance is the whole point of standards | 12:25 |
| Simon80 | indeed | 12:26 |
| LaserJock | well, for instance, I am relying on somebody else not publishing my research before I do | 12:26 |
| Simon80 | I have to go eat | 12:26 |
| LaserJock | it would be difficult for me to take an "Open Chemistry" stnace | 12:26 |
| LaserJock | *stance | 12:26 |
| LaserJock | many scientist believe in academic-only or non-commercial licenses | 12:27 |
| LaserJock | it's just tough | 12:27 |
| Simon80 | yeah | 12:27 |
| === _czessi [n=Czessi@dslb-088-073-024-208.pools.arcor-ip.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| LaserJock | and you are talking about their career | 12:27 |
| Simon80 | well, this is why I like the GPL, cause without it, nobody would be thinking about this | 12:27 |
| LaserJock | I've spent 9 years in uni and I'd be pretty darn upset if somebody "stole" my work | 12:28 |
| Simon80 | I mean, i know my attitude is a bit imposing... but there are so many cases where companies GPL something cause they have to | 12:28 |
| Simon80 | Laserjock: wouldn't there be repercussions of them doing that? | 12:28 |
| LaserJock | no | 12:28 |
| Simon80 | I mean, it would be obvious they did it | 12:28 |
| LaserJock | not if they published it before I did | 12:29 |
| LaserJock | it's just a race to who publishes first, the only weapon I have is ignorance on their part ;-) | 12:29 |
| Simon80 | err.. but you would have public source code history that would act as proof that it was your work | 12:29 |
| LaserJock | wouldn't matter | 12:29 |
| Simon80 | how do you know that? | 12:29 |
| Simon80 | I don't think academics like plagiarism much | 12:30 |
| LaserJock | because it's the paper that matters :-) | 12:30 |
| LaserJock | well, it's not "stole" as in came into my lab and grabbed my notes | 12:30 |
| Simon80 | no, it's plagiarism | 12:30 |
| LaserJock | but as in "I share my ongoing research with others in the field" | 12:30 |
| LaserJock | which is equivalent to FLOSS I think | 12:31 |
| Simon80 | yeah, that's what the GPL does | 12:31 |
| LaserJock | that would kill me | 12:31 |
| LaserJock | I couldn't do my research if I acted that way | 12:31 |
| LaserJock | at this point | 12:31 |
| Simon80 | well what you could do is develop in private, but publish under the GPL when you're done | 12:31 |
| Simon80 | it's only the distribution part that the license covers | 12:32 |
| === sistpoty [n=sistpoty@ubuntu/member/sistpoty] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| Simon80 | you can do what you like with it in private | 12:32 |

| sistpoty | hi folks | 12:32 |
| Simon80 | well then how does that sound? | 12:32 |
| Simon80 | along with this paper is some GPL code, enjoy folks | 12:32 |
| LaserJock | well, it doesn't sound very open | 12:32 |
| Simon80 | it's better than the alternative you suggest | 12:32 |
| === plugwash [i=plugwash@p10link.net] has left #ubuntu-motu [] | ||
| Simon80 | which is to not use the GPL, and reinvent the wheel | 12:33 |
| LaserJock | well, it's the current situation | 12:33 |
| Simon80 | it's not the current situation, not how you explained it | 12:33 |
| LaserJock | sorry, I'm sort of mixing things about | 12:33 |
| LaserJock | for me personally I don't do anything with software | 12:33 |
| Simon80 | ah | 12:33 |
| Simon80 | .............I still have to go eat, lol | 12:33 |
| LaserJock | I was equating FLOSS to "Open Chemistry" where scientists work as the FLOSS word does | 12:33 |
| Simon80 | oh | 12:33 |
| Simon80 | well, they do now | 12:34 |
| Simon80 | sort of | 12:34 |
| LaserJock | in an interesting way | 12:34 |
| Simon80 | they like to charge money for papers, but otherwise, it's kind of like that | 12:34 |
| Simon80 | it SHOULD be like that | 12:34 |
| LaserJock | anyway, you better go eat | 12:34 |
| LaserJock | :-) | 12:34 |
| Simon80 | I mean, nothing wrong with using a bit of communism where it applies.. as in when it doesn't involve property redistribution | 12:34 |
| Simon80 | basically, information wants to be free.. it's cliche, but it's how we should view this | 12:35 |
| LaserJock | well, if I was truly open in my research I'd never be able to graduate :-) | 12:35 |
| Simon80 | imo | 12:35 |
| Simon80 | laser, what if, like I said, you were open upon publishing it | 12:35 |
| Simon80 | but not before | 12:35 |
| Simon80 | doesn't that fix it? | 12:35 |
| LaserJock | well, that's fine. that's really the scientific model for the most part | 12:36 |
| Simon80 | I feel very strongly about not restricting the flow of information | 12:36 |
| LaserJock | but that doesn't bring the power of FLOSS to science | 12:36 |
| === gandalfn [n=gandalfn@i02m-87-89-253-156.d4.club-internet.fr] has left #ubuntu-motu [] | ||
| Simon80 | yes it does | 12:36 |
| Simon80 | part of it | 12:36 |
| Simon80 | there's not the same collaboration, but there is some | 12:36 |
| LaserJock | the power would be to share ideas and develop before it gets published | 12:36 |
| Simon80 | you build on other papers | 12:36 |
| Simon80 | before of after they get published, there's still sharing going on, man | 12:37 |
| LaserJock | yeah, some | 12:37 |
| LaserJock | but I want it all :-) | 12:37 |
| Simon80 | so I don't care if you wait till it gets published, the issue that I care about is whether people publsih freely, that sort of thing | 12:37 |
| LaserJock | yeah, that makes sense | 12:37 |
| LaserJock | anyway, that was really OT | 12:37 |
| Simon80 | and I don't see yet why that couldn't include GPLed code at publish-time | 12:37 |
| Simon80 | lol | 12:38 |
| LaserJock | well, I don't publish code so that would be a problem :-) | 12:38 |
| LaserJock | but for people who do there are at times (apparently) when there are restrictions set by the funding agencies | 12:38 |
| LaserJock | and while the push might need to be made to make the funding agency accept a GPL license | 12:39 |
| LaserJock | I'm not really convinced that all code in this world needs to be GPL'd | 12:39 |
| LaserJock | if you're out for world domination then copyleft is the way to go I guess | 12:39 |
| LaserJock | if you're trying to be useful and let people do what they want with it then I think there are better choices | 12:40 |

| jelmer | LaserJock: roger, thanks | 01:03 |
| ajmitch | LaserJock: sure, the window runs the length of the office, is about 2m by 6m :) | 01:03 |
| ajmitch | jelmer: bzr-svn? | 01:04 |
| === LaserJock cries | ||
| === Lathiat has no external windows in his office | ||
| jelmer | ajmitch: yep | 01:04 |

| Lathiat | my eyes usually kill me everytime i walk outside ;p | 01:04 |
| LaserJock | they don't let us have *any* windows with all the lasers flying about ;-) | 01:04 |
| LaserJock | although we do get to occasionally drill holes through walls to get from one room to another | 01:05 |
| jelmer | ajmitch: Not yet. The required Python-Subversion changes have been integrated into the Debian package as well now. | 01:05 |
| jelmer | So it should be possible, if somebody can sponsor (my AM seems to've gone MIA) | 01:06 |
| ajmitch | sure, I can | 01:07 |
| ajmitch | I offered awhile back, I can't remember what the hold up was then | 01:07 |
| jelmer | Probably the fact that python-subversion needed patching | 01:07 |
| ajmitch | I think so | 01:07 |
| ajmitch | if you can give me a url to a source package, it'd be great | 01:08 |
| ajmitch | makes things more consistent if I use the same tarball as you have | 01:09 |

| jelmer | ajmitch: It looks quite short at the moment | 01:10 |
| ajmitch | http://samba.org/~jelmer/bzr/bzr-svn_0.2-0ubuntu1.dsc is the ubuntu update? | 01:11 |

| ajmitch | superm1: try again in a few hours, it's friday afternoon here | 02:55 |
| jdong | nvidia xorg drivers totally disappearing, fixed by reinstalling nvidia-glx | 02:55 |

| superm1 | jdong, why all the breakage though? | 02:55 |
| jdong | you name it\ | 02:55 |
| superm1 | this seems like very weird stuff | 02:56 |
| jdong | superm1: I'm totally confused | 02:56 |

| jdong | superm1: spent about 3 hours yesterday with 5 different people | 02:56 |
| jdong | superm1: we'd figure out what happened, but have no idea why it happened | 02:56 |
| superm1 | i've done the updates on 3 of my boxes, and they went smoother then most kernel updates (no needing to redo module-assistant or anything) | 02:56 |
| jdong | superm1: and all attempts to roll back the update, redo it and reproduce it fails | 02:56 |
| jdong | superm1: me too | 02:56 |
| jdong | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1887116 | 02:56 |

| jdong | and they can't all be blamed on unofficial nvidia repos | 02:57 |

| superm1 | great: http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?upid=3780 | 03:00 |

| bddebian | superm1: I would add a -0ubuntu1 revision | 03:04 |
| superm1 | it was going to always be ubuntu native | 03:04 |
| bddebian | Hmm | 03:04 |
| superm1 | the license allows for ubuntu and derivatives | 03:04 |
| bddebian | Can it really carry a GPL license? | 03:06 |
| superm1 | the packaging | 03:06 |
| superm1 | not the firmware | 03:06 |
| bddebian | Hrm.. | 03:07 |
| superm1 | crimsun_, was fairly iffy about it to, and said as long as I got this license and approval for hosting on ubuntu servers + mirrors, then it would fall on ubuntu-archive admins final decision | 03:08 |

| jmantha | the Main SRU page has "Make sure to generate the .changes file against the base version in the relevant distribution and not against the version in -proposed or a previous version in -updates, using the -v option to dpkg-buildpackage or debuild." | 05:24 |

| jdong | why am I always the butt-end of all these random jokes | 05:28 |
| crimsun_ | jmantha: the statement above means you shouldn't include changelog entries from -proposed | 05:28 |
| crimsun_ | jmantha: ...a policy that doesn't seem to be enforced very strictly but policy nonetheless. | 05:28 |
| jmantha | ah, ok. I see | 05:29 |
| jmantha | I was a little confused | 05:29 |
| bddebian | Should debhelper/compat be 5 before an upload? I think so but I don't know if we "force" that now? | 05:29 |

| MidMark | hi | 10:48 |
| Ash-Fox | Greetings | 10:48 |
| MidMark | is there a way to see packages for this stupid bug that has ONE line diff and has 3 long months life? | 10:48 |
| MidMark | https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/wxwidgets2.6/+bug/59138 | 10:48 |
| Ubugtu | Malone bug 59138 in wxwidgets "amule crashes when I close a tab" [Unknown,Unknown] | 10:49 |
| dholbach | MidMark: what is your question exactly? | 10:49 |
| dholbach | how to get a fix included in ubuntu? | 10:49 |
| dholbach | http://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/FAQ | 10:49 |
| MidMark | my question is: why it wasn't fixed? It's a stupid fix based in one line, so few to test, few time to revision, few time to recompile...why 3 months and still here? | 10:50 |
| dholbach | we have procedures, if you don't stick to them and point the right people to things they will go unnoticed | 10:50 |
| dholbach | maybe most of the developers don't use amule | 10:51 |
| MidMark | dholbach: the bug is in the wxwidgets not amule | 10:51 |
| MidMark | so all programs based on them have this bug including amule | 10:52 |
| dholbach | ? | 10:52 |
| dholbach | sorry | 10:52 |
| dholbach | all I can say is: stick to the procedure for inclusion of patches and all will be good | 10:53 |
| jsgotangco | ah | 10:53 |
| MidMark | which procedure? We have a bug report, we have a package, we have a fix... next step will be build our packages by our own, but at this point I can be the mainteiner :( | 10:55 |
| dholbach | http://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/FAQ | 10:55 |
| MidMark | dholbach: this a FAQ for a motu people, I'm not | 10:57 |
| dholbach | no it's not | 10:57 |
| dholbach | the first point says is a link to the procedure for getting patches included in ubuntu | 10:58 |
| MidMark | dholbach: it's just subscribed also to sponsored bug | 11:01 |
| MidMark | :( | 11:01 |
| dholbach | MidMark: I don't understand what you're saying | 11:02 |
| dholbach | LP is offline atm | 11:02 |
| MidMark | anyway I think if a mainteiner doesn't fix this bug after a BR so detailed and a diff so short and a time so long... then your procedures have for sure something wrong... | 11:04 |
| dholbach | thje problem is, that we don't have package maintainers | 11:05 |
| dholbach | we maintain everything as a team | 11:05 |
| dholbach | and there are a LOT of bugs | 11:05 |
| dholbach | if you don't subscribe ubuntu-universe-sponsors to a fix it will go unnoticed | 11:05 |
| StevenK | And if you'd prefer for us to look at things, tell us, or subscribe ubuntu-universe-sponsors. | 11:06 |
| dholbach | it's unfortunate, I can see that | 11:06 |
| dholbach | but it's really that simple | 11:06 |
| MidMark | dholbach: | 11:06 |
| MidMark | [11:03] <MidMark> dholbach: it's just subscribed also to sponsored bug | 11:06 |
| MidMark | [11:03] <MidMark> :( | 11:06 |
| MidMark | [11:04] <dholbach> MidMark: I don't understand what you're saying | 11:06 |
| dholbach | I don't understand "it's just subscribed also to sponsored bug" | 11:07 |
| dholbach | do you mean that 'ubuntu-universe-sponsors' is subscribed to the bug? | 11:07 |
| MidMark | here https://launchpad.net/people/ubuntu-universe-sponsors/+subscribedbugs is just present the bug | 11:07 |
| MidMark | search for 59138 | 11:07 |
| StevenK | They are, and the bug has 13 dupes. | 11:08 |
| Ash-Fox | In debian/rules, is it possible to get execute a different set of commands depending on if the architecture is i386 or not? (If so, please tell me how :) | 11:08 |
| StevenK | Ash-Fox: It is. But why? | 11:08 |
| MidMark | exaclty | 11:08 |
| === elkbuntu [n=melissa@ubuntu/member/elkbuntu] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| MidMark | so I think we just do all the stuff in the procedure isn't? | 11:09 |
| dholbach | MidMark: "13 Dec 06 22:15" - that's when the sponsors were subscribed | 11:09 |
| dholbach | so give them some time to figure it out | 11:09 |
| Ash-Fox | StevenK, because the program I'm packaging can produce much better x86 binaries, that just a 'generic' binary that's used for the other platforms. | 11:09 |
| MidMark | I think the bug is already known because for Feisty someone has fixed it... | 11:10 |
| Ash-Fox | (It's complicated -- but the program in question actually has m68k assembler transcoded either into x86 directly or into portable C code -- the latter being a lot slower.) | 11:10 |
| MidMark | so now you are telling that was unknown before 13? | 11:10 |
| StevenK | Ash-Fox: So different commands, or different CFLAGS, or what? | 11:11 |
| Ash-Fox | StevenK, different commands to execute for building | 11:12 |
| StevenK | (Converting m68k ASM on the fly?? Ouch.) | 11:12 |
| MidMark | ok sorry fix for feisty was on 13 | 11:12 |
| MidMark | so I expect it veeeeery soon | 11:12 |
| MidMark | anyway this story about sponsored bugs it's something painful... | 11:13 |

| Ash-Fox | StevenK, hmm, okay. I'm going to look that up | 11:15 |
| StevenK | Ash-Fox: The make construct you want to look up is 'ifeq' | 11:16 |

| === StevenK nods. | ||
| MidMark | also someone asked for set higest importance for this bug... if someone can do this... | 11:19 |
| Hobbsee | which bug? | 11:20 |
| === Hobbsee tells StevenK to look at it and fix it | ||
| StevenK | Awww, but mother.... | 11:20 |
| Hobbsee | but nothing. go on | 11:21 |
| Hobbsee | MidMark: that's fixed in feisty, but needed in edgy, right? | 11:21 |
| MidMark | yes | 11:22 |
| MidMark | 59138 | 11:22 |
| StevenK | Then it isn't just me. | 11:22 |
| MidMark | the bug talk about itself, no need to argue anymore | 11:23 |
| Hobbsee | StevenK: sorry? that's a SRU, it looks like | 11:23 |
| StevenK | Exactly, so it isn't just me that needs to be involved. | 11:23 |
| StevenK | Besides, I'm not invoking the magical motu-sru superpowers until there is a debdiff for edgy-proposed. | 11:24 |
| Hobbsee | !sru > MidMark | 11:24 |
| Hobbsee | !sru | MidMark | 11:24 |
| ubotu | MidMark: sru is http://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates | 11:24 |
| === Hobbsee wonders what this "nominate for release" button does | ||
| MidMark | > Bugs which represent severe regressions from the previous release of Ubuntu | 11:25 |
| Hobbsee | MidMark: you'll need to follow the SRU process now, as it's after edgy's release | 11:25 |
| Hobbsee | yes, so it qualifies | 11:25 |
| Hobbsee | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/SRU | 11:26 |
| Hobbsee | !sru is <reply> Stable Release Update informationn is at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates for main and restricted, while https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/SRU is for universe and multiverse. | 11:26 |
| ubotu | sru is already known | 11:26 |
| Hobbsee | !no sru is <reply> Stable Release Update informationn is at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates for main and restricted, while https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/SRU is for universe and multiverse. | 11:27 |
| ubotu | I'll remember that, Hobbsee | 11:27 |
| Hobbsee | !no sru is <reply> Stable Release Update information is at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates for main and restricted, while https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/SRU is for universe and multiverse. | 11:27 |
| ubotu | I'll remember that, Hobbsee | 11:27 |
| MidMark | so I've to subscribe ubuntu-sru | 11:27 |
| StevenK | No | 11:27 |
| StevenK | First thing is prepare a debdiff for edgy-proposed | 11:27 |
| StevenK | And after that is in the bug, subscribe motu-sru | 11:28 |
| === Hobbsee wonders why mlind hasnt poked you @ sru before. | ||
| MidMark | guys if I do all these stuff I have just my packages ready and fixed | 11:28 |
| MidMark | I'm not in motu team | 11:28 |
| StevenK | You can get sponsored. | 11:29 |
| MidMark | sponsored? | 11:29 |
| StevenK | You do the work, and someone else uploads with their key | 11:30 |
| MidMark | sponsored means money? | 11:30 |

| StevenK | Ash-Fox: No problem. :-) | 11:30 |
| Hobbsee | wow, that's been open since november, and it's taken this long for someone to put it in the right place. | 11:30 |
| MidMark | Hobbsee: none know all that burocracy | 11:31 |
| Hobbsee | bah. mlind only has 2 days ago. | 11:31 |
| === Hobbsee cant help it if bugs are lost in the ether | ||
| StevenK | Or beg mlind to do the SRU dance. | 11:32 |
| MidMark | yes but normal people like me, just know launchpad, I repeat, if I have to know all that procedure I can fix for me and stop to waste time in launchpad | 11:32 |
| StevenK | I'm so not doing an SRU request. | 11:32 |
| Hobbsee | MidMark: then you need to look somewhere and say "i've got a fix, what can i do?" - until you do that, or give it a tag of patch attached, or something that makes it distinct from all other malone bugs (how many is there again?) it likely wont be found. | 11:33 |
| MidMark | just to know: how many people counts motu? | 11:34 |
| dholbach | http://launchpad.net/people/ubuntu-dev | 11:34 |
| StevenK | 4,000 bugs for universe and multiverse | 11:34 |
| MidMark | yes they are a lot | 11:35 |
| StevenK | And 59 people | 11:35 |
| StevenK | Do the math. | 11:35 |
| MidMark | but hey... none of 59 uses wxwidgets in Edgy :) | 11:35 |
| dholbach | some of the are busier with their other lives as others too | 11:35 |
| StevenK | And we don't spend all of our time on bugs, or indeed on Ubuntu | 11:35 |

| Hobbsee | no idea | 11:51 |
| Hobbsee | depends if anyone's merged it / packaged whatever new upstream versoin there is | 11:51 |
| MidMark | so you are all/none maintainer of all universe/multiverse packages? | 11:52 |
| Hobbsee | MidMark: there are no maintainers of universe/multiverse packages as such. | 11:53 |

| Hobbsee | MidMark: yes, we can all modify anything in universe. non-MOTU's can fix packages, give debdiffs, and subscribe ubuntu-universe-sponsors for stuff in universe, so that a MOTU can look at their debdiff, and upload it | 11:54 |
| StevenK | MidMark: And to give you some idea, there are 9,236 source packages in Edgy in universe. | 11:55 |
| MidMark | so 1/2 bug for every package :D | 11:55 |
| StevenK | Which build into 15,131 binary packages | 11:55 |

| astharot | hello | 12:01 |
| Hobbsee | StevenK: yes, but they do nothing. | 12:01 |

| StevenK | KDE, the votes, or the people? | 12:01 |

| Hobbsee | StevenK: well, if the dev doesnt see them, or doesnt like them, then they do nothing | 12:01 |
| === Hobbsee smacks StevenK | ||
| StevenK | Ow! | 12:01 |
| Hobbsee | of course, they have proper maintainers there | 12:01 |
| MidMark | anyway guys I understood all yours argue, I've listen all and took very seriously, but I don't like argue like: "I don't see the bug or I don't use this program then I don't want to fix it" | 12:03 |
| MidMark | I think you have to understand that some programs are largely used by people... and wxwidgets (with amule) it is | 12:03 |
| Hobbsee | MidMark: no one said that. | 12:04 |
| Hobbsee | MidMark: it's not a case of no one wanting to - it's a case of no one who could upload actually *knowing* about the bug prior to 2 days ago. | 12:04 |
| Hobbsee | StevenK: the votes do nothing. duh | 12:04 |
| MidMark | [10:53] <dholbach> maybe most of the developers don't use amule | 12:05 |
| === Zic_ [n=Zic@Final-Fantasy.FF-IRC.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| Hobbsee | so you've interpolated that to say "so no one cares about it" | 12:05 |
| Hobbsee | what dholbach meant was "maybe msot of hte devs dont use amule on edgy, so therefore havent seen the bug, nor been looking at the bugs for amule" | 12:05 |
| MidMark | it can be | 12:05 |
| MidMark | feisty has the bug too... anyway ok I'm satisfied, hope that someone produce debdiff | 12:07 |
| MidMark | s/has/had | 12:07 |
| Hobbsee | MidMark: you said that it didnt | 12:07 |
| Hobbsee | and you'd better be that someone | 12:07 |
| MidMark | I don't know even how to produce it | 12:07 |
| Hobbsee | didnt it tell you how to, in that SRU link? | 12:08 |
| MidMark | yes I have to read also... :) | 12:08 |
| MidMark | understand, try, test... | 12:08 |
| MidMark | debdiff is a cumulative patch for a source package? | 12:10 |

| aa_ | Hobbsee: well debian is in freeze | 12:47 |
| Hobbsee | when does it unfreeze? | 12:48 |
| aa_ | Shoragan: help me out here :) | 12:48 |
| Hobbsee | heh | 12:48 |
| aa_ | Hobbsee: shorogan is our Debian maintainer | 12:48 |
| Hobbsee | cool :) | 12:48 |
| aa_ | he was unclear on the ubuntu rules/process so we decided to join here and ask you | 12:48 |
| Hobbsee | sounds good to me :) | 12:49 |
| aa_ | it's Friday, real work can wait til monday! Long live open source! | 12:49 |
| Hobbsee | hehe | 12:49 |
| Hobbsee | exactly! | 12:50 |
| Shoragan | Hobbsee, if i prepare a new package, can that go into ubuntu without going through debian first? | 12:51 |
| Hobbsee | Shoragan: sure, if you want to. of course, it's easier if it goes thru debian | 12:51 |
| === Hobbsee wonders about just fudging the version number | ||
| Shoragan | Hobbsee, debian is currently in freeze for the etch release, so no new upstream version right now :) | 12:52 |
| Hobbsee | Shoragan: we've got a couple of changes in ubuntu from the debian package - seen at http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/changelogs/pool/universe/p/pida/pida_0.3.1-2ubuntu2/changelog - if you could/want to incorporate them into your package, that would be great | 12:52 |
| Hobbsee | Shoragan: yeah, i figured as much. | 12:52 |
| Shoragan | Hobbsee, sure, i'll do that | 12:53 |
| Shoragan | are there some diffs available already? | 12:54 |
| Hobbsee | Shoragan: if you prepare a source, and put it somewhere for uploading, we can upload it to ubuntu. we could probably stick a debian version number on it as well, so the autosyncer will just keep syncing it, if hte package is exactly the same. *puts down the evil crackpipe*. | 12:54 |
| Hobbsee | as in, the patches from ubuntu? | 12:54 |
| Shoragan | yes | 12:54 |
| Hobbsee | Shoragan: yep. there are for all our packages (i think) http://patches.ubuntu.com/p/pida/ | 12:55 |
| Shoragan | ok, thanks | 12:55 |
| Hobbsee | not a problem | 12:55 |
| Hobbsee | Shoragan: would you be about to push that into experimental, btw? | 12:55 |
| === Hobbsee isnt that clear on debian either | ||
| Hobbsee | (seeing as sid is frozen) | 12:56 |
| Shoragan | Hobbsee, that would be a possibility, i'll try to get that sponsored | 12:56 |
| === Hobbsee nods | ||
| Hobbsee | your choice of course. but we can sync from there too. :P | 12:56 |
| Hobbsee | if we dont have to look, then it will stay more or less at the debian version, without needing to be looked over, as long as the autosyncer is on - that's what i'm t rying for | 12:57 |
| Shoragan | when will the autosyncer be switched off before the release? | 12:58 |

| crimsun_ | superm1: I'd look at the last lintian warning, but otherwise it looks ok | 07:35 |
| jdong | crimsun_: you know if there's a reason the DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=risky for ffmpeg doesn't --enable-x264? | 07:36 |
| superm1 | crimsun_, that warning is because the license is so lengthy | 07:36 |
| superm1 | from what i gather | 07:36 |
| superm1 | i dont really know how to get around it | 07:36 |
| dholbach | mruiz: probably "gksu update-manager -c -d" if mvo enabled it already | 07:38 |
| crimsun_ | superm1: the b-d-i one? | 07:40 |
| crimsun_ | jdong: note the source component. | 07:41 |
| superm1 | b-d? | 07:42 |
| crimsun_ | jdong: it would be madness to ship x264 support in ffmpeg -and- in x264. The former lies in universe, the latter, in multiverse. What would the point of the latter be? | 07:43 |
| jdong | crimsun_: DBO=risky turns on several multiverse flags anyway | 07:43 |
| jdong | crimsun_: like lame encoding, xvid, etc | 07:43 |
| jdong | just not x264 | 07:43 |
| crimsun_ | right, if you want it, please submit that bug | 07:43 |
| jdong | crimsun_: ffmpeg can transcode a divx AVI to a h264+AAC mp4 in one fell swoop | 07:43 |
| jdong | that's the main difference for me | 07:43 |
| crimsun_ | it won't make any difference anyway, since we don't enable it | 07:43 |
| jdong | crimsun_: it makes it easier for those who rebuild their ffmpeg in that way :) | 07:44 |
| superm1 | crimsun_, the one i knew about was : W: ivtv-firmware: too-long-extended-description-in-templates ivtv/present-hauppauge-eu-v1 | 07:44 |
| jdong | crimsun_: also, would it be possible to have a ffmpeg-multiverse variant too? | 07:44 |
| crimsun_ | superm1: no, "W: ivtv-firmware source: build-depends-without-arch-dep" | 07:44 |
| jdong | have the two mutually conflict each other | 07:44 |
| crimsun_ | jdong: oh god. | 07:45 |
| jdong | :( | 07:45 |
| jdong | the ability for ffmpeg to deal with multiverse codecs is indispensible to video player owners | 07:45 |
| jdong | crimsun_: for example, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/iPodVideoEncoding | 07:46 |
| crimsun_ | and it would completely skew what slomo and siretart worked so hard to do in breezy. | 07:46 |
| jdong | I'd like that to go away | 07:46 |
| jdong | namely the "sudo checkinstall -D make install" part :D | 07:46 |
| crimsun_ | having multiple copies of the same source is -insane- | 07:46 |
| jdong | I'm sorry to hear that | 07:46 |
| crimsun_ | ffmpeg will likely see another CVE | 07:47 |
| jdong | why are we so insistent on ffmpeg in universe though? | 07:47 |
| superm1 | crimsun_, oh i didn't notice that... i'll get that fixed | 07:47 |

| crimsun_ | jdong: because a fair number of apps are useless without it. | 07:47 |
| jdong | Novell/Redhat seem to believe all the mpeg2+ codecs are under patent lockdown anyway :( | 07:47 |
| jdong | so does ffmpeg with its ability to decode mpeg4 belong in universe/main? | 07:48 |
| === Adri2000 [n=Adri2000@unaffiliated/adri2000] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| crimsun_ | if it does, likely no. | 07:48 |
| siretart | jdong: what do you want to do with an multiverse-ffmpeg anyway? link it to existing applications? or link it to other multiverse applications? or 'just' use the command line utilities? | 07:48 |
| jdong | siretart: to use the commandline | 07:49 |
| jdong | siretart: for encoding video to the media player I'm getting soon | 07:49 |
| jdong | it's either a single ffmpeg command or a series of 5-6 other commands with an alternate method | 07:49 |
| jdong | I'd rather have the former | 07:49 |
| jdong | and not by our official howto which recommends checkinstallling a package | 07:50 |
| siretart | I could imagine a source package in multiverse, which downloads the 'main' source package, applies some patches to it, and install the ffmpeg binaries in a debian binary package | 07:51 |
| jdong | that'd be cool | 07:52 |
| siretart | obviously, this won't work if you want to enable existing applications to use the new codecs. for the commandline utilities, this would/could work. | 07:52 |
| jdong | btw, http://en.opensuse.org/Restricted_Formats | 07:52 |
| jdong | for your viewing pleasure.... | 07:52 |
| jdong | "DVDs are encoded in mpeg2-video, for which there is no support in the current SUSE Linux OSS release, due to the mpeg2 format being patent-encumbered by its owners, Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG).The patent holder is unwilling to offer an unrestricted patent grant, as required by the GPL. " | 07:52 |
| jdong | they seem to strongly believe all the mpeg* video codecs are patent-protected | 07:52 |
| jdong | SUSE's xine that ships with the OS is stripped of all decoding abilities except raw AVI's, vorbis, and theora | 07:53 |
| jdong | not even their non-OSS component opens that up | 07:53 |
| jdong | it only adds MP3 support via realplayer | 07:53 |
| siretart | jdong: hm. ubuntu does not seem to have problems with shipping mpeg2 DECODERS. up to now, only encoders of the mpeg variant codecs are denied | 07:54 |
| jdong | siretart: right, that's what we've been doing at least... though Novell camp seems to think very differently? | 07:54 |
| jdong | perhaps it's a USA-specific thing? | 07:54 |

| jdong | crimsun_: I agree with that | 07:55 |
| siretart | consider the patents.txt in ffmpeg. there have been some codecs already disabled | 07:55 |

| superm1 | jdong, i see... | 08:46 |
| superm1 | jdong, libiec has been sitting for like 10 days, so i wasnt really sure if i should poke around about it | 08:47 |
| crimsun_ | (it's poor manners to poke them to process queues, since they have to do it anyway) | 08:47 |
| jdong | superm1: I understand; I'm assuming they're busy with other stuff | 08:47 |
| jdong | superm1: (the approved backports queue hasn't been processed for that long either) | 08:48 |
| superm1 | jdong, yea. well it will get in eventually, thats all that matters :) | 08:48 |
| jdong | superm1: I hope so :) | 08:48 |
| jdong | superm1: it's better than the 5-month wait in breezy/dapper-cycle :D | 08:48 |

| nixternal | meeting time | 08:59 |
| nixternal | hahaha | 08:59 |
| ajmitch | meeting? | 08:59 |
| sistpoty | damn, no cigarette (too late), but at least a coffee :) | 09:01 |
| nixternal | is it possible to sync/merge from debian experimental? or is that a bad idea? kvpnc has a new upstream that closes every bug on malone (5 of them) | 09:11 |
| bddebian | I've done it in the past | 09:12 |
| nixternal | ok, it can't hurt to request it i guess | 09:12 |
| nixternal | what's the worse that could happen, reject the bug? hell i had to reject one of my own earlier :) | 09:13 |

| sistpoty | it's now | 09:21 |
| imbrandon | sh*t | 09:21 |
| ajmitch | imbrandon: yes, right now | 09:21 |
| imbrandon | can you give me a qick run down on what topic we're on and whats been said ? | 09:22 |
| imbrandon | justa little summery | 09:22 |
| ajmitch | motu council, nothing beyond what was said at UDS | 09:23 |
| ajmitch | apart from the term limits coming up | 09:23 |
| zorglu_ | q. is there any doc on all the abreviation used in #ubuntu-meeting ? (just trying to understand what is being said) | 09:24 |
| nixternal | TB == tech board | 09:24 |
| nixternal | UDS == ubuntu developer summit (speaking of mt. view this round) | 09:24 |
| nixternal | CC == community council of course | 09:24 |
| zorglu_ | ok thanks | 09:25 |
| nixternal | i think those are the main ones that have been slung around in the past 10 or so minutes | 09:25 |
| zorglu_ | btw you guys may learn to type faster and avoid those abreviation :) | 09:25 |

| LaserJock | ajmitch: thanks | 09:49 |
| LaserJock | how did the first item go? | 09:49 |
| ajmitch | it went | 09:50 |
| ajmitch | it wasn't really something to agree on, more just clarifying what is there | 09:50 |
| nixternal | i must admit, as it stands for someone really new to this whole ordeal we call MOTU, revu is probably easier than bazaar | 09:52 |
| nixternal | but i like the bazaar idea though..it allows more involvement (means i can break it and make you mad at me) | 09:52 |

| superm1 | nixternal, with the way bzr would work, i think there would still be an area of LP for revuing - you'd upload your branch into a common directory - so you cant break it all and make everyone mad :) | 09:55 |
| LaserJock | you can break other people's packages though | 09:56 |
| nixternal | oh darn ;p | 09:56 |
| nixternal | oh good | 09:56 |
| nixternal | :) | 09:56 |
| joejaxx | lol | 09:56 |
| nixternal | if you can break other peoples packages, that would be pretty scary | 09:56 |

| siretart | do we have a sobby server somewhere so that we can share the minutes? | 09:56 |
| nixternal | siretart: share them on the ml? | 09:57 |
| nixternal | or the wiki | 09:57 |
| siretart | nixternal: way too synchronous | 09:57 |
| siretart | I'd specifically asked for gobby | 09:57 |

| nixternal | for uds, don't know if they stayed open, but i think they did because they use them i believe for the weekly newsletter | 10:00 |
| ajmitch | don't let the minutes block on 1 person :) | 10:02 |
| sistpoty | hehe | 10:03 |
| nixternal | bug 75930 - can someone look at this sync request - im sure i messed up something | 10:04 |

| Toadstool | re | 10:08 |
| === Toadstool sneaks into the meeting | ||
| Adri2000 | what's wrong with the idea of a box for each package in MoM to let a note saying "I'm working on it" / "this merge can't be done yet due to a problem with..." ? | 10:10 |
| ajmitch | Adri2000: there needs to be some way of getting that data onto the merge page | 10:11 |
| LaserJock | because Scott hasn't written that in :-) | 10:11 |
| ajmitch | see LaserJock's reply ^^ :) | 10:11 |
| LaserJock | I don't see why it would be so hard to do for us | 10:11 |
| LaserJock | we really should set up something like a MOTU Package Page | 10:11 |
| LaserJock | where there is a page/ package that has notes, tasks, etc. | 10:12 |
| LaserJock | then we could data mine that for lists | 10:12 |
| Toadstool | like an enhanced packages.qa.debian.org? | 10:12 |
| LaserJock | but then I feel like LP should be able to do this | 10:12 |
| LaserJock | yeah | 10:12 |
| ajmitch | LaserJock: sure, someone just has to do it :) | 10:14 |

| pirast | or where to have alook? | 10:49 |

| siretart | ajmitch: since you seem to have incorporated crimsun_'s change, I think we can post your version. shall you or I post it? | 10:50 |
