mdkehow can I grep through a bunch of files for a string ("String X") and replace each occurrence of it with another one ("String Y")?12:44
azeemuhm, sed?12:45
bhalesed -i yourfile -e "s/StringA/StringB/g"12:45
_ionin zsh, for f in foo bar quux; sed -i -e 's/String X/String Y/g' "$f"12:46
bhalebe sure to escape anything fishy12:46
bhalein your strings12:46
_ionIn other shells, add 'do' and '; done' around the sed expression.12:46
mdkebhale: they are urls, so have / symbols, are those fishy?12:46
mdkealso - and .12:47
_ions#foo#bar# and escape . with \12:47
_ion(In the regex, not in the replacement)12:47
mdkeI need it a bit more spoonfed than that, can you add that into bhale's expression?12:48
bhalesed -i foo -e "s#http:\/\/youurl.com#http:\/\/yoururl2.com#g"12:49
mdkewhoosh12:49
bhaleescape the . also12:49
bhalewith \12:49
shawarmabhale: No. You don't have to escape the slahes when you separate with #.12:49
bhalehm yeah12:49
bhaleduh12:49
shawarmased -i yourfile -e "s#StringA#StringB#g"12:49
mdkehere's an example url, does anything need to be changed from shawarma's expression, or can I plug that into StringA? http://www.debian.org/releases/edgy/example-preseed.tx12:50
mdke(+t)12:50

shawarmabhale: Oh, right.12:50
shawarmaWell, it's unlikely to cause trouble if he doesn't do it.12:51
_ionNever count on that. :-)12:51
mdkeok, I'll compile an expression and check it with you guys12:51
bhaleyeah its a regex for "any character"12:51
bhaleworth escaping12:51
shawarmamdke: the thing is that dots are wild, so wwwadebianborg would match, too.12:51
mdkeoh, ok12:51
mdkeand don't i need grep in there too?12:52
shawarmamdke: Nope.12:52
mdkeit's a bunch of files in a few directories12:52
shawarmaany sort of pattern in the filenames?12:52
shawarmaLike */*.html ?12:52
mdkeyep12:53
shawarmaOk, then:12:53
shawarmafor file in */*.html; do sed -i "$file" -s 'yourexpressionfrombefore' ; done12:53
shawarmaer..12:53
mdkeshawarma: that looks into subdirectories?12:53
shawarmafor file in */*.html; do sed -i "$file" -e 'yourexpressionfrombefore' ; done12:53
shawarmamdke: Not recursively. Only one level down.12:53
mdkeone is enough12:53
mdkethanks12:53
shawarmaAny time.12:54
shawarmaGrab a backup of the files first. Just in case.12:54
_ionshawarma: -i.backup12:54
mdkeyes, I have those12:54
shawarma_ion: Really? then sed -i.backup -e 'asdfasdfasdf' */*.html   should work too.12:55
_ionAh, true, it indeed does accept multiple file parameters.12:56
shawarma_ion: I'd expect it to if the -i is just a general parameter.12:56
shawarma_ion: I just always treated it as an 'apply the magic to the next argument' sort of option. :-)12:56
_ionFor recursive search, you could say **/*.html in zsh. In bash, you'd probably need find -name '*.html' -print0 | xargs -0r sed blahblah12:57

shawarmaLooks sensible.12:58
_ionDon't escape the dots in the replacement, only in the regexp.12:59
shawarmaDoesn't matter.12:59

malexHello. I wonder what could be wrong with the dapper archive since the debootstrap from edgy cannot create a pbuilder chroot for the dapper. It attempts to install a dependency from universe (libdb1-compat) and an unknown package (slang1a-utf8) and fails when it cannot find them in the main archive. Pleas help. I need a dapper pbuilder chroot to build a package for ubuntu users as a courtesy.03:24
malexedgy pbuilder chroot gets created without problems and functions just fine by the way.03:24
Mezlibdb1-compat has no rdepends03:27
malexMez: Which makes it problematic. I wonder what could be broken - bootstrep's dapper script, ubuntu dapper archive, something else?03:29

seb128Mithrandir: well, you are blocking my work, so how do I unblock it, just wait?11:04
seb128Mithrandir: fine, I'll not ping you again and note that the spec is blocked on you11:05
Mithrandirseb128: it was actually a comment about a sync request from last night, but in general noting that a spec is blocked on something getting out of NEW is fine.11:05
seb128well, I don't prod for syncs usually, that ping was just because the package is broken for now and I was not sure if that was better to ask for a sync now or wait for the next round which can usually take some days11:07
seb128noted :)11:07
Mithrandirand given that the oldest item in NEW is less than 48 hours old, I don't think NEW processing is proceeding at an unreasonable rate.11:07
seb128no, not at all11:07
seb128that's just I would like to get moving on the spec11:07
MithrandirI'm trying to get some of my own specs done too, which is bloody hard when we're down to just one active archive team member.11:07
seb128right11:07
seb128sorry for that :/11:08
Mithrandirnp, not your fault.11:08
Mithrandirwe can blame mdz for making 2/3 of the archive team managers. ;-P11:08
seb128:)11:08
Mithrandirseriously though, we need at least one other person to help out, since it's taking me more or less all my time atm.11:09

UbugtuMalone bug 79109 in base-installer "feisty-alternate-i386 for herd-2 cannot install kernel from CDROM" [High,Confirmed]  https://launchpad.net/bugs/7910905:02
wasabi_cjwatson: I just noticed your upload of partman-efi. Lots of commednts about "Intel Macs". I hava a 64bit Xeon EFI system here I've had no end of trouble getting booting right... does all this work benefit that as well?05:05
cjwatsonwasabi_: I'm not sure how the non-Mac i386 EFI stuff works05:05
wasabi_Well, I know, at least, that elilo doesn't work right.05:06
cjwatsonwasabi_: does /sys/firmware/efi exist?05:06
cjwatsonand how does elilo fail?05:06
wasabi_Let me check. Got to SSH through a few layers.05:06
wasabi_I don't remember. I set it up almost 4 months now. It's still got the CD with GRUB on it that I use to boot in the drive. ;005:06
cjwatsonwasabi_: my change should improve partman for you by avoiding mounting the EFI system partition, which I believe confuses elilo05:06
cjwatsonbut if that's not the problem elilo is having, it probably won't help05:07
cjwatson  * Automatically use existing EFI system partitions on Intel Macs as EFI05:07
cjwatson    boot partitions (LP: #38225).05:07
wasabi_No /sys/firmware/efi05:07
cjwatsonthat was a slightly unhelpful changelog, actually, because that's done regardless of platform05:07
wasabi_This system can also boot with regular DOS partitions...05:08
wasabi_But, I got it all set up with shiney new GPT partitions...05:08
wasabi_And then realized grub broke on those.05:08
cjwatsonalthough on Intel Macs, the EFI system partition showed up in a new format (fat32) that partman-efi hitherto hadn't recognised05:08
wasabi_And spent 3 days trying to get elilo working before I gave up.05:08
cjwatsongrub breaks if you don't run gptsync05:08
wasabi_gptsync?05:08
cjwatsonthat syncs the GPT partition table to MBR for the benefit of legacy software05:08
wasabi_Oh that makes MBR?05:08
cjwatsonit's not really within the EFI spec, but in practice I believe nothing should care05:09
wasabi_I got it to a EFI boot prompt thing...05:09
wasabi_Figured out how to navigate to the disk...05:09
cjwatsongptsync's in the refit package05:09
wasabi_But elilo.exe or whatever it was just wouldn't run properly. I'll give it another try later.05:09
wasabi_No refit package....05:09
cjwatsonI've been running entirely in BIOS compat mode on this intel mac so far05:09
wasabi_amd64 arch?05:10
cjwatsonit's in universe05:10
cjwatsonoh, not for amd64 yet05:10
wasabi_Ahh.05:10
cjwatsonthere's a Debian bug about that - needs some gnu-efi patch I haven't got my hands on yet05:10
wasabi_Also, I have no elilo package.05:10
cjwatsonsame reason, probably05:10
wasabi_I remember now. Couldn't find a 64 bit version. ;)05:10
cjwatsonI'll be able to work on that once I get the gnu-efi patch05:10
cjwatsonwell, theoretically, anyway. this mac should be amd64-capable05:11
wasabi_Guess nobody's just run a mac on 64 bit mode, eh?05:12
Mithrandircjwatson: should be fine, I guess.05:13
cjwatsonwasabi_: I'm sure they have - in fact I can probably give it a try shortly with a live CD05:14
wasabi_Oh, works fine with a livecd. Just nt with EFI. :)05:14
wasabi_Off a GPT partition.05:14
wasabi_(Other than the unrelated problem of the LiveCD's X server hard locking this system, and having no way to disable the X server)05:15
cjwatsonit's all a bit raw05:15
wasabi_Yeah. I got that. :)05:15
wasabi_I am actually sort of amazed how the x86_64 platform has such a large number of problems still. Would have thought vendors would have given a shit by this point. Guess not. =(05:20
wasabi_By vendors I don't mean ya'll. I mean like, the dudes selling the servers.05:22

frafudsas: As far as I understand your reply there is not much information available about the sprint. More broadly, is there any information available on what the core developer are working on? Or does their work mainly consist in importing the debian and adjusting it for Feisty? 08:58
dsasfrafu: I'm not a core-dev I don't know what's planned or even if much is planned in advance.08:59
dsasfrafu: the core devs do do that, also administer the archive, package somethings directly (e.g. kernel) or push on ahead of debian (e.g. gnome packaging or python2.5 transition I think), they write the installer, monitor security updates09:01
dholbachfrafu: we'll work on the specs targetted for feisty release and discuss them, work on them together 09:01
