(sistpoty/#ubuntu-motu) enyc: not quite sure actually... maybe the debian new maintainers guide gives some points or the ubuntu packaging guide could have some infos01:52
sistpotyno idea somerville3201:52
Fujitsusomerville32, you mean federation.imbrandon.com?01:52
somerville32Yup01:52
enycsistpoty: ok... erm... now there is a broken qpsmtpd package in dapper and edgy... probably broke in fiesty too now... what do I do about these different versions etc.?01:52
enycsistpoty: create separate diffs for all of them?01:53
sistpotyenyc: first get the fix into feisty ;)01:53
enycsistpoty: errr hrrm ive never done this before etc.01:53
sistpotyenyc: then you'd might want to fix edgy then dapper via a sru (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/SRU for details=01:53
=== somerville32 hugs Fujitsu
sistpotyenyc: I guess we can help ;)01:54
sistpotyenyc: are you on feisty already?01:54
enycsistpoty: no01:55
enycsistpoty: have acces to dapper and edgy machines01:55
somerville32Don't you guys just love it when you try to ssh into a box when it's ip address has changed? haha01:55
somerville32"IT IS POSSIBLE THAT SOMEONE IS DOING SOMETHING NASTY!"01:55
=== somerville32 gasps.
FujitsuHeheh.01:56
sistpotyenyc: hm... being on feisty helps a little bit... but otherwise you can get the sourcepackage from packages.ubuntu.com/src:<packagename>01:56
=== Fujitsu complains about unreliable ServerPronto servers.
sistpotyenyc: just use dget on the .dsc01:56
sistpoty(link)01:56
enycsistpoty: I can download the 3 files for the feisty source...01:56
enyc?dget?01:56
sistpotyenyc: same as wget, but it will fetch the three files if you stuff it with a link to a .dsc file01:57
somerville32Ugh oh. :/01:57
sistpotyenyc: package devscripts has it01:57
Hobbseesistpoty: which breaks on LP, incidently01:57
somerville32imbrandon, ping01:58
enycsistpoty: hrrm how do i install dget on edgy?01:58
sistpotyHobbsee: yes, librarians fault 01:58
Hobbseesomerville32: what were you wanting?01:58
sistpotyenyc: apt-get install devscripts01:58
somerville32Hobbsee, I can't login :(01:58
sistpotymaybe someone is doing something nasty? :P01:58
Hobbseesomerville32: what syntax are you using to log in, and did you fix the ip changed address?01:59
somerville32Hobbsee, I removed the offending key on line 13! :D01:59
somerville32And the syntax is:01:59
somerville32ssh federation.imbrandon.com01:59
Hobbseeof .ssh/known_hosts presumably01:59
Hobbseeyou need to use ssh username@federation.imbrandon.com02:00
somerville32My username is the same as local, I think02:00
Hobbseeas your username on your home system is often different to the username on his machine02:00
Hobbseejust try it, anyway02:00
somerville32Well.. then I don't know what my username is, haha02:00
somerville32Hobbsee, can you find me and see?02:00
somerville32*finger02:00
Hobbseetrying02:00
Hobbseeimbrandon: ping?02:00
Hobbseeoh, he's changed the passwords with the new machine02:01
somerville32Oh :/02:01
=== somerville32 sighs.
Hobbseeand it's always random each time, so i couldnt guess what it is02:01
somerville32I guess I'll just have to do things locally02:02
=== somerville32 pushes the Turbo button.
enycsistpoty: right I have the fiesty source 3-files02:03
Hobbseesomerville32: where are you?02:03
enycsistpoty: that has _not_ extracted them like "apt-get source" does....02:04
HobbseeLathiat: was offering shells on his machine - you may want to ask him for one.  he's in perth02:04
sistpotyenyc: now run dpkg-source -x *dsc, which will unpack the source package02:04
somerville32Hobbsee, Canada.02:04
Hobbseehrm02:04
enycsistpoty: this has been done02:05
enycsistpoty: interestingly it mumbeles about signatute (using edgy machine)02:05
sistpotystrange...02:05
Hobbseebecause you dont have the public key of whoever uploaded it?02:06
sistpotyshouldn't be signed at all actually02:06
Hobbseewell, it is when uploading02:06
sistpotyenyc: now change into the dir, and add a new changelog entry. you can use "dch -i" for it02:06
enycsistpoty: well thats why it mumbles... because its not signed02:07
sistpotyenyc: well, ignore that ;)02:07
gesersistpoty: the .dsc is signed02:07
sistpotygeser: nice, indeed02:08
somerville32Hobbsee, Do you do mentorships?02:08
Hobbseesomerville32: mentorships?02:08
=== Hobbsee wonders if we can change where our email addresses point to
somerville32Hobbsee, Oui.02:08
Hobbseesomerville32: i dont understand what they are - as in, mentoring for packaging or something?02:09
FujitsuHobbsee, which email addresses?02:09
enyc  * Create /var/run/qpsmtpd in init script02:09
enyc    (Ubuntu bug 72602)02:09
somerville32Hobbsee, Yeah and sponsoring and stuff02:09
somerville32Hobbsee, I want to fast-track to becoming a dev :)02:09
HobbseeFujitsu: the @ubuntu.com and @kubuntu.org02:09
sistpotyenyc: also see if the distribution is still unstable, and if so change it to feisty02:10
Hobbseesomerville32: sort of.  people here will answer most questions02:10
FujitsuHobbsee, I believe you change your primary LP email, and wait for it to be synced.02:10
Hobbseesomerville32: and ubuntu-universe-sponsors is good to subscribe for uploading it02:10
HobbseeFujitsu: ahh, okay02:10
Fujitsu(or request that it be synced)02:10
somerville32Hobbsee, Yeah, but I want someone I can bug regularly ;p02:10
Hobbseesomerville32: the people here are regular02:11
sistpotyenyc: also the version should have an -XubuntuY suffix, so you should change it to 0.32-4ubuntu102:12
enycsistpoty: debian/qpsmtpd.init seemingly I need to change....02:12
sistpotyenyc: I was still with the changelog ;)02:12
=== somerville32 tickles Hobbsee
enycqpsmtpd (0.32-4ubuntu0) feisty; urgency=low02:12
enyc ?02:12
enycyes sorry02:12
enycnano debian/changelog now02:12
sistpotyenyc: great!02:13
enycsistpoty: but you suggested -ubuntu1 I wanted -ubuntu0 ;-) erm.. does it matter ?02:13
=== Hobbsee tickles somerville32 back
enycsistpoty: also should there be o - there02:13
sistpotyenyc: ubuntu1 is better ;)02:13
enyc??02:14
enychrrm well this looks okay to me!02:14
sistpotyenyc: 0.32-4ubuntu102:14
Fujitsu0.32-4ubuntu1 is the correct versioning scheme.02:14
Hobbseeenyc: you wont get it through the reviewers02:14
enycok i see02:14
sistpotyenyc: 0.32-4 is the old debian version, now we append ubuntu (because it's for ubuntu) and an ubuntu version starting with 102:15
=== enyc wonders whever qpsmtpd (0.32-4ubuntu0) feisty; urgency=low
enyceree02:15
enycerror02:15
sistpotyenyc: so if a newer debian version comes in, that would be 0.32-5 and be higher than the ubuntu version02:15
=== enyc wonders why people get muddles with fiesty vs feisty ;-)
sistpotyhehe02:15
enycsistpoty: yes I understand... used to seeing these things02:16
sistpotygood02:16
enycI see that dch debdiff dget are all part of "devscripts"02:16
somerville32Should I use my @ubuntu.com e-mail address now that I have one?02:16
Hobbseesomerville32: yeah02:16
sistpotyenyc: yes... developers are lazy ;)02:16
Hobbseesomerville32: a) makes you look official, and b) gets filtered less02:16
somerville32Hobbsee: That'll mean I have to setup a gpg sig and everything though, haha02:17
somerville32:D02:17
somerville32sistpoty: Indeed.02:17
Hobbseesomerville32: you need to anyway, for packaging02:17
=== somerville32 nods.
somerville32I have one for my gmail account02:17
sistpotybtw.: Hobbsee: cool revu trick, if you look at one detail page and are not logged in: just open a new tab and login there, and then reload the old tab02:17
Hobbseeyep :)02:18
Hobbseei've been using that :)02:18
sistpotyso am I ;)02:18
FujitsuI would use my ubuntu.com one, but the script creating them is buggy, so I use my ubuntu.{org,com}.au instead :)02:18
Hobbseesistpoty: it'd be more helpful if i could just login on the same page.  or if it would actually keep my login, if the IP is the same02:18
somerville32Whats a good gui front-end for gpg?02:18
Fujitsusomerville32, seahorse, but don't use a GUI.02:18
somerville32lol02:19
sistpotyHobbsee: it would indeed, and revu2 can do that (but it can do pretty much only do login and not much else)02:19
sistpotyHobbsee: I'm just tooooo lazy ;)02:19
Hobbseesistpoty: ahh, fair enough.  get coding then :P02:20
sistpotyhehe02:20
ajmitchHobbsee!02:20
Hobbseehey ajmitch!02:20
enycsistpoty: anyway im just reading the init script carefully....02:21
somerville32Should I have my irc nick in the comment field?02:21
somerville32ie. Cody A.W. Somerville (somerville32) <cody-somerville@ubuntu.com>02:22
enycsistpoty: so far as I can tell I only need an entry in qpsmtpd_start() ... im not sure what i the best most "neat" mway to do this... I definitely want to do the mkdir whatnot  afeter any "bail-out"02:23
enycsistpoty: I can use a if ! -d    whatnot to only do the mkdir if the dir does not exist...02:24
Hobbseesomerville32: if you like.  i did02:24
enycsistpoty: also there is not environment variable for the /var/run location... not that there neend to be...02:24
Hobbseesomerville32: just because i dont tend to use my real name her02:24
Hobbseee02:24
sistpotyenyc: ok, it gets a little bit more tricky first, since the package uses a patch system (dpatch) 02:25
sistpotyenyc: so before you certainly want to create a nice patch02:25
=== Hobbsee breakfasts
sistpotyenyc: please install dpatch 02:25
=== Fujitsu [n=Fujitsu@ubuntu/member/fujitsu] has joined #ubuntu-motu
enycsistpoty: err... ok installing dpatch02:26
=== somerville32 pants as he tries to generate enough entropy to generate his new keys.
enycedgy/main dpatch 2.0.20 installed02:27
Fujitsusomerville32, don't you already have a key!?02:27
sistpotyenyc: and then in the top source dir, use dpatch-edit-patch <patchname> (where patchname should be s.th. to match what you are modifying, e.g. fix-init-script)02:27
somerville32Fujitsu, Making one for my new e-mail02:27
somerville32Am I... not suppose to do that?02:27
sistpotyenyc: it should go along the names you can find in debian/patches directory02:27
Fujitsusomerville32, silly you... Just create a new ID on the existing one :)02:28
somerville32Doh!02:28
somerville32Fujitsu, syntax?02:28
enycsistpoty: I see .. doing it this way means the patch will likely be applyable to other versions....02:28
enycsistpoty: rather than just creating a debdiff which only applies to the fiesty version by changing it directly02:29
enycsistpoty: ?02:29
Fujitsusomerville32, gpg --edit-key [your key ID here] 02:29
FujitsuThen adduid02:29
sistpotyenyc: kind of... you'll end up with a separate patch in debian/patches, that could be applied to different versions02:29
sistpotyenyc: but that patch will then end up in the debdiff02:30
enycsistpoty: hrrm what is a "s.th."?02:30
somerville32Fujitsu, So I should now have:02:30
somerville32[ultimate]  (1)  Cody A.W. Somerville (somerville32) <cody.somerville@gmail.com>02:30
somerville32[ unknown]  (2). Cody A.W. Somerville <cody-somerville@ubuntu.com>02:30
somerville32right?02:30
somerville32:D02:30
sistpotyenyc: s.th=something, where did I write this?02:31
Fujitsuenyc, that confused me originally. `Something', I believe.02:31
Fujitsusomerville32, correct.02:31
somerville32Fujitsu, Do I need to re upload to lp?02:31
enyc"dpatch-edit-patch init-creates-var-run-qpsmtpd"02:31
sistpotyenyc: sounds sane02:31
Fujitsusomerville32, gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --send-keys [your key id]  will do it, yes.02:32
enycsistpoty: above -- [...] "<patchname> (where patchname should be s.th. to match what"[...] 02:32
sistpotyenyc: well, I'm tired and no native speaker ;)02:32
FujitsuYou don't need to tell LP about they key again though, just upload it to the server.02:32

sistpotyenyc: I'd add the mkdir command directly above the start-stop-daemon call in start to the init-script02:33
enycsistpoty: indeeed...02:34
sistpotyenyc: and I guess you'll want mkdir -p <directory>02:34
enycsistpoty: now I either use a if -d  stanza  whatnot or  mkdir -p method...02:34
sistpotyenyc: mkdir -p is shorter ;)02:34
sistpoty<- lazy as hell02:34
theCoreHobbsee: ping02:35
enycsistpoty: ok.. reading some other init scripts... some check with   if ! -d   ... some mkdir -p  lol02:37
enycsistpoty: theres 3 commands actually to create the same permissions as the package installs02:38
sistpotyenyc: many ways lead to rom ;)02:39
sistpoty+e02:39
enycsistpoty: debian/patches/init-creates-var-run-qpsmtpd.dpatch created02:39
sistpotyenyc: good, add this one to debian/patches/00list02:40
enycsistpoty: however02:40
enycsistpoty: I may have done somethin silly...02:40
sistpotyenyc: 00list just determines the order in which the patches are applied02:40
sistpotyenyc: if these don't overlap, you can use any order02:41
enycsistpoty: I have done "chown qpsmtpd:qpsmtpd" on the dir... but there is a RUNAS user mentiond02:41
enycsistpoty: maybe I sohuld be chown $RUNAS:$RUNAS incase somebody changes the $RUNAS ?02:41
sistpotyenyc: sounds sane... you can use dpatch-edit-patch <patchname> again to reedit the present patch02:42
sistpotyhow many times did the word patch appear in my last msg? *g*02:42
somerville32Question: If I don't compile my python code, can I just manually set a python dependency or do I have to use dh-py* scripts and the {python:Depends} thinger?02:44
enyc        chown $RUNAS:$RUNAS /var/run/qpsmtpd02:44
enyc hrrm02:44
enyci wonder if is safe to assume a group exists in the same name as the RUNAS user?02:44

enycsistpoty: i hae no idea why the debian package makes /var/run/qpsmtpd setgid but not group-writable 02:49

bddebianHeya gang02:50
sistpotyhi bddebian02:50
Hobbseesomerville32: okay02:50
bddebianHeya sistpoty02:50
somerville32Hobbsee, Can you think of a python package that doesn't compile that I can use as an example?02:50
FujitsuMorning, bddebian.02:50
bddebianHeya Fujitsu02:51
Hobbseesomerville32: supybot maybe?  anything written in python02:51
joejaxxhello bddebian 02:51
theCoreHobbsee: I got supertux!02:51
bddebianHeya joejaxx02:51
sistpotyenyc: init-scripts aren't meant to work as is. if s.o. edits the script one can assume that he/she knows what to do02:51
Hobbseepython doesnt compile as such, does it?  like, pre-runtime02:51
joejaxxbddebian: :)02:51

somerville32Hobbsee, It can be compiled into .pyc02:52
Fujitsusomerville32, or .pyo02:52
somerville32Right02:52
bddebianjoejaxx: To what? 02:52
theCoreHobbsee: at least, it didn't crash 02:52
sistpotyenyc: 00list is pretty much self-explanatory ;)02:52

Hobbsee(to check if the orig tarballs are different)02:54
somerville32Hobbsee, Should I make a man page for my package if it doesn't have one?02:54
sistpotybddebian: I'm too tired to think straight right now *g*02:54
bddebianHobbsee: Ohh, hmmm  I'm not sure I remember02:54
bddebianGive me a sec02:54
Hobbseesomerville32: yes02:55
sistpotyenyc: first you'll need to create a source package... please recheck your debian/changelog (if you create a patch, it doesn't hurt to mention the patch name in the changelog)02:55
Hobbseesomerville32: you should keep going until you get no warnings from lintian/linda, apart from the bad version and distribution, which are debian-specific02:55
sistpotyenyc: then do a dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -S -sa -us -uc 02:55
enycsistpoty: to make tneh source pkg.. i see02:55
sistpotyright02:56
bddebianHobbsee: diff -urN foo-old foo-new | diffstat > diffstat.txt02:56
Hobbseebddebian: neat02:56
Hobbseebddebian: presumably i need to convert both to .tar.gz first?02:57
enycsistpoty: iirc this sort of thing needs "build-essential fakeroot"02:57
sistpotyenyc: then install it ;)02:58

enycsistpoty: debian packaging is very powerful....02:59
Hobbseebddebian: right02:59
bddebianto merge or review.. That is the question02:59
sistpotyenyc: now you should have to .dsc-files, one being the original you downloaded, right?02:59
sistpoty(and two .diff.gz's)03:00
enycsistpoty: qpsmtpd_0.32-4ubuntu1.diff.gz03:01
enycsistpoty: its created a .changes file too03:01
enycsistpoty: as well as new .dsc03:01
enycsistpoty: bit leaves the same orig.tar.gv  which makes sense ;-)03:01
sistpotyenyc: yes. the .changes file is useful for uploading, so you won't need that for a debdiff03:01
sistpotyenyc: so fire off debdiff ;)03:02
enycsistpoty: with both .dsc files as arguments?03:02
sistpotyenyc: sure, debdiff will always compare two packages, so it needs to .dsc files03:02

bddebianHobbsee: What's in the tarball?03:07
somerville32Hobbsee, If I make a few modifications to disable compiling the python code in the Makefile.in provided by upstream, should I just make the mods or is the change (ie. commenting out a few lines) big enough to warrant the use of some sort of patch system?03:07
Hobbseebddebian: sorry?  supertux*.orig.tar.gz, both changed from bz203:08

HobbseetheCore: you need to for debhelper.  if it doesnt build/work with the lower dependancies.  there's nothing technically *wrong* with them, unless you try to backport it03:33
HobbseeFujitsu: major upstream version change, whcih means a lot of the info is out of date/wrong now03:34
HobbseeFujitsu: like description, build system, etc03:34
FujitsuAh, that'd do it.03:34

bddebianShouldn't matter06:16
bddebianYou call dh_pysupport but not dh_python?06:16
somerville32You don't call dh_python anymore06:16
bddebianSince when?06:16
bddebianhttp://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/python-policy/ap-packaging_tools.html#s-pysupport06:16
somerville32There is new python policy06:17
somerville32I read it there06:17
somerville32The man page says it06:17
somerville32and when you build it, it tells you06:17
bddebianHmm, news to me so I'll shut up and go to bed now :-)06:17
=== somerville32 could be wrong.
somerville32This is my first package remember :P06:18
FujitsuI thought dh_python was still valid...06:18
bddebianAs could I.  I'm wrong alot it seems :-)06:18
Fujitsu(and correct)06:18
=== somerville32 shrugs
somerville32I'm going to bed too06:19
somerville32Maybe I should try an easier package first06:19
bddebianYou're close man06:19
somerville32It is frustrating because it seems like no one can give me the answer06:20
FujitsuYeah, you're very nearly done.06:20
somerville32Yea! :)06:20
somerville32Maybe I need to ditch py_support06:20
somerville32and just use dh_python06:20
bddebiansomerville32: Some of us aren't packaging "masters" either :-(06:21
somerville32hehe06:21
somerville32Hobbsee, You're the Kubuntu Community Manager?06:22
TheMusosomerville32: Afaik the python policy requires that you use either python-support or python-central06:22
somerville32Why aren't they working?06:22
somerville32It doesn't replace the {python:Depends}06:23
bddebianI think because you aren't build-depping python-dev?06:23
somerville32Hmm... I'll try it tomorrow06:24
Hobbseesomerville32: yes, why?06:24
somerville32Hobbsee, Do you work with Jono?06:24
bddebianAnother note: if there is a debian/pycompat file, you must launch dh_python after dh_pysupport, but the recommended way is to remove that file.06:24
Fujitsubddebian, isn't python-dev used for building binaries against python?06:24
Hobbseesomerville32: some, yes06:25
bddebianFujitsu: I haven't looked that closely at what he is actually building :-)06:25
=== somerville32 wishes Xubuntu had some sort of community manager.
bddebiansomerville32: Have you seen this page?  http://wiki.debian.org/DebianPython/NewPolicy06:25
somerville32Yup.06:25
bddebianAnother note: if there is a debian/pycompat file, you must launch dh_python after dh_pysupport, but the recommended way is to remove that file.06:25
bddebianSo you were correct06:26

zorglu_i want to make it easy for the user to install the stuff <- MY GOAL01:35
azeemzorglu_: if you ship a script the admin can execute at their own descretion, that would be fine I guess01:35
zorglu_to screw up the system <- NOT MY GOAL :)01:35
azeembut not if that script is automatically run by another package01:35
zorglu_azeem: ahhhhhhh ok :)01:36
azeemwhich could be deduced from your statement above (but I didn't read scrollback thouroughly)01:36
zorglu_azeem: now i understand :) the point is you dont want the script to be launch in the postinst or something01:36
azeemyes01:36
azeemI don't even know what the underlying problem is, but even putting up a note in the face of the admin saying "run this to get foo modified" would be bad, probably debconf abuse01:37
azeemhaving it in README.Debian (or maybe NEWS.Debian) would be fine01:37
azeemwell, that's my opinion, anyway01:37
zorglu_ok i think i got the idea :)01:38
zorglu_1. it is not advized to modify other files package during the install of a package01:39
azeems/not advized/verboten/01:39
zorglu_2. the user has to know about the modification01:39
StevenK\sh: Can I ste^Wborrow the clanlib merge off you?01:40
zorglu_3. it is ok to provide something to ease the modification if the user explictly say yes01:40
zorglu_now i have to find out if i modified /etc/nsswitch.conf myself for libnss-mdns :)01:41
zorglu_thanks all :)01:41

xerxashow can I tell in a debian/rules with /usr/share/cdbs/1/class/autotools.mk to not run ./configure but rather autotools.sh ? 03:56
xerxas(I'm using cdbs) 03:56
xerxasthere's seems to be a NOCONFIGURE=1 variable that I can set, but don't know where 03:56
xerxasand how 03:56
azeemhttps://perso.duckcorp.org/duck/cdbs-doc/cdbs-doc.xhtml03:57
azeemshould be explained there I think03:57
azeemxerxas: do you want to run autogen.sh first, or can you not run configure after autogen.sh?03:58
xerxasI want to run autogen.sh first 03:58
xerxasit creates a configure 03:58
azeemthen probably makebuilddir/foo:: is the right target03:59
azeemdunno03:59
xerxasok 03:59
xerxas what is /foo ? 03:59
xerxasthe name of the binary package ? 03:59
azeemyes04:00
xerxasit's the target to run ./autogen.sh or to set NOCONFIGURE=1 ? 04:00
azeemthe former04:00
xerxasok 04:00
xerxasthe former, is the 1st one ? so autogen.sh ? 04:00
azeemyes04:01
azeemalternatively, you can run autogen.sh before and put the changes it makes as a patch into debian/patches04:01
xerxasahh , yes, someone already told me that 04:03
xerxas./configure is supposed to generate the same on all systems 04:03
xerxasbecause it's a distribution 04:03

geseror * gksu -> gksudo from 1.0.1-1ubuntu108:21
gesersimply go through the debdiff and identify the changelog entries for each remaining change in the debdiff and add it to your changelog entry08:22
cypher1geser, but that is not mentioned in the 1.0.3-1.2ubuntu1 merge either08:22

geserI will clean up that gksu->gksudo->gksu patching and upload it08:54
cypher1geser, cleanup in the code ?08:55
gesera little bit: 01_use_gksu.dpatch is changed to use gksudo instead of gksu and 11_desktop_file.dpatch changes it back again from gksudo to gksu08:57

tsmitheok... explain10:34
tsmithei chose cdbs as it was easy for my first ever package, and it wasn't too hard to have those extra lines to override the default behaviour10:35
sinisterguyok, i've figured out most of it, but i'm getting a wierd error. i'm using this control file: http://pastebin.ca/289113 but when i do debuild -us -uc i get this error http://pastebin.ca/28911910:36
sinisterguyany suggestions?10:36
siretartScottK: did you talk to gustavo?10:36
siretarttsmithe: for that reason, I wouldn't recomment using cdbs for the first package10:37
tsmithesiretart, oh - why? it's done now :(10:37
tsmithesinisterguy, line 5 spills over to line 6 it looks like10:37
ScottKNo.  My theory was to get the update correct here and then point him at Ubuntu.10:37
