shawarmaIf there's a package that's about to enter the archive for the first time, but there's a community-provided package known to be in wide use with a wrongful higher version number, would you guys think it was alright if an epoch was set on this first official version in order to let the users of the community provided version upgrade smoothly?03:31
shawarmaTheoretically, of course.. :-)03:31
crimsunno, I think that's bogus.03:34
crimsunwe're not responsible for screwed external versioning03:35
crimsunand I keep telling the folks who build beryl packages to stop using that crackful versioning, but of course it's in one ear and out the other03:35
jdongbddebian: upload time? I'm dying of Altivec anxiety :D03:35
jdong(not really, but I'm about 5 minutes from opening up doom3 and wasting a good working night)03:36
bddebianjdong: Sure since I seem to suck at getting this libticonv built :-(03:36
shawarmacrimsun: I see your point. However, setting the epoch wouldn't break anything, but it *would* fix the upgrades for quite a few users.03:39
shawarmacrimsun: It think that's also a valid point.03:40
crimsunif maintaining compatibility with external repositories is a concern, then do what it takes to keep it03:40
jdongis there any trivial python or gdialog/zenity-like way of triggering libnotify popup balloons?03:40
crimsunbefore you trigger those popups, talk to mpt and see if what you want to do is sane UI-wise.03:41
shawarmacrimsun: I happen to know that the external repository will seize to exist the very second this package enters the archive, so it's a one-off thing.03:41
jdongcrimsun: it's more for personal use and not gonna see the public light of day03:41
shawarmacrimsun: I happen to know this as I'm the sucker who made the packages. :-)03:41
ajmitchpoor sucker03:42
=== ajmitch wonders if either beryl or compiz will get shipped on the cd - beryl is looking awfully unlikely, what a shame ;)

ajmitchsuch hype about it at UDS03:44

owhHi folks, I posted an email to ubuntu-devel and after a week to ubuntu-devel-discuss. The message to ubuntu-devel was moderated after about 10 days and came through in a whole bunch of messages. 10:10
owhThe message to ubuntu-devel-discuss was distributed, since it made it to the archives: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-discuss/2007-January/000167.html but I have not received any replies. I'm not here to whinge about it, but can anyone point out why it was ignored?10:10

ademanoh, haha, well i'm not to the point of packaging it yet, i gotta make sure that the person who submitted for revu didn't get it through (nearly a year ago)11:12
ademannow automake wants ./INSTALL, ugh, this is EXACLTY why i'm writing a new build system... 11:14
persiaIt doesn't belong in clean.  The config{sub,guess} copy should be done in configure, and the files should be deleted in clean.  Otherwise they end up in .diff.gz (and are not required).11:14

muzzolhi, i have a dumb question, where do i specify the package name if is diferent from source package?04:10
muzzolim playing with control file04:10
muzzolbut im not sure04:10
=== LuisBG is now known as luisbg
pochumuzzol: I think you can do that with "dh_make -p <packagename>04:12
persiamuzzol: Does your source package provide more than one binary package?  If not, it is best to have the same name.  If so, you will need to alter both control and rules.04:12
muzzolwell im not sure if i've explained correctly04:12
muzzoli want to change the original name04:12
muzzolif i have a source package name a.tgz04:13
muzzoland want to generate a bin package named b.deb04:13
muzzolwhere must i look?04:13
persiamuzzol: The easiest way is `tar xzf a.tgz; mv a b-x.y.z`, and build your package in b-x.y.z.04:14
muzzolah! ok, i though i had to edit control file04:14
muzzolthat's really easy04:14
muzzol:)04:14
persiamuzzol: For single-binary packages, your source and binary package names should match, and the directory be called <pkgname>-<version>.  You will need to put b in your control file to generate b_x.y.z-r_<arch>.deb.04:16
ScottKpersia: Are you familiar with packaging/building C programs in the Ubuntu environment?  I have a question if you are and have a moment...04:22
persiaScottK: I'm more familiar with C than python or perl.  What's the question?04:22
ScottKTyping ....04:23
ScottKI did a packaging fix and rebuilt libspf2.  Here's the debdiff http://librarian.launchpad.net/5800752/Debdiff_rev1.  The trick is that libspf2-1.2.5/src/libspf2/spf_lib_version got added somehow.04:24
=== lastnode [n=lastnode@upstream/dev/lastnode] has joined #ubuntu-motu
=== lastnode [n=lastnode@upstream/dev/lastnode] has left #ubuntu-motu []
ScottKI guess the question is how do I avoid that?  I think it's not necessary and I don't want to complicate review of the patch.04:24
persiaScottK: If you really didn't add spf_lib_version.h, then it looks to me like the clean rule doesn't do all it might.  Did you maybe build the package in the tree at least once prior to generating the final source version?04:29
ScottKNo.04:29
ScottKI actually tried making a new directory, downloading the source package, and rebuilding an unmodified package.  Got the same issue.04:30
persiaScottK: Hrm.  I'll take a closer look, and see if I can figure out what happened.04:30
ScottKI'd appreciate it.04:30
=== imbrandon yawns
ScottKpersia: The other issue that I manually edited out of that particular debdiff is that there are a bunch of windows files in there and rebuilding the package causes all the line endings to get converted to Unix line endings...04:31
ScottKThis makes for a particularly ugly diff.04:31

persiaScottK: First pass runs with no diff (output of debuild -S -us -uc on unmodified source).04:35
ScottKOK.  Well then I think I understand at least a little better.04:36
=== ScottK built a binary first to make sure it would install.
ScottKI think I should not do that.04:37
ScottKThanks for looking at it.  I'll go try it again....04:38
persiaScottK: Yep.  It's a bug in the clean rule.  It's a good idea to verify uild first, but afterwards, delete the directory, and rerun dpkg-source -x, as otherwise these bugs can hit you.04:40
ScottKThanks again.  I learn something new here every day.04:41
ScottKpersia: Should I write a bug for that (I'm not up to fixing myself - just learning)?04:42
persiaScottK: It's probably not worth it.  If it is a debian package, it is worth sending a debian bug (wishlist).  If it is in an Ubuntu-only package, just fix it.  To fix it, you only need to add the logic to delete the file either in the debian/rules clean rule, or in the upstream Makefile clean rule.  If it's not obvious, leave it alone: I find bugs like this in about 60% of the packages I touch.04:44
=== Ppjet6 [n=ppjet6@81.56.130.254] has joined #ubuntu-motu
ScottKIt's orphaned in Debian, so writing a Debian bug is of little use in the short term.  Someone is planning on picking it up once they are a DD (hopefully later this year).  Sounds like it's not worth messing with.04:45
ScottKAppreciate the help.04:46
persiaScottK: Probably not.  As long as the package builds correctly after downloading, and anyone preparing an NMU or Ubuntu revision is careful to avoid extra material in the changelog, most people should be happy.04:46

crimsunon the upside, you'll learn git, mercurial, mantis, and much more08:57

tsmithewhat kind of things are the most time consuming, then?08:57

tsmithecrimsun, i love this: "If you are filing a bug pertaining to ALSA, please first read the following URL:"09:01
crimsunyes, and people _don't_ read it09:02
tsmitheas if most bug-filers are going to read that! :)09:02
tsmitheyeah!09:02
tsmithe:P09:02
crimsunif they'll read a wiki page, they _might_ read an LP comment09:02
crimsunit just goes to show that most people simply don't read09:02

enycHrrrm.... does anybody understand why some things in /usr/share/fonts/X11/misc/ but xorg looking in /usr/share/X11/fonts/misc/  ?09:09
enycim confused!09:09
enycnoting this system has been upgraded dapper>edgy i think...09:11
enycso might have old xorg conf or other problem09:12
crimsunit is part of the transition, yes09:12
tsmithecrimsun, how do you maintain support for dapper, edgy? i assume you run feisty09:13
crimsunfor the most part, because fontconfig is used (see /etc/fonts/fonts.conf ), it didn't matter which dir was used for 6.1009:13
crimsuntsmithe: I support 5.10, 6.06, 6.10, and 7.0409:13
crimsuntsmithe: I actually run 5.1009:13
=== tsmithe doesn't believe you!

enycwhere do fonts work? which dir is new and old?09:16
enycand how do i list which fonts the x-server is actually seeing ?09:16
crimsunxlsfonts09:17
crimsunthey're both used; see the aforementioned file09:18
crimsunxorg.conf may list /usr/share/X11/fonts[/...] 09:18
enycxlsfonts  cooo! thanks09:18
enycright... but it actually reads fonts.conf instead (or in addition) ?09:18
crimsunfontconfig uses /etc/fonts/fonts.conf09:19
enycbut what 'uses' fontconfig ?09:19
tsmithecrimsun, tell me... how should i get started? what's the first thing you do every day in relation to alsa?09:20
tsmithei just don't think i have 7 hours every day spare, that's all... but i quite see the opportunity09:21

crimsuntsmithe: my workflow is essentially: triage bug mail, update my local git repos against BenC's, trawl upstream bug tracker (mantis), trawl upstream mercurial (hg) alsa-{kernel,driver,utils,lib}, read upstream alsa-devel, read pkg-alsa-devel (on alioth), create/pull any patches in, build+test, solicit testing, etc.09:24
crimsuntsmithe: if you'd like to ease into it, you could begin by generating a git patch to send to kernel-team@lists.uc containing ac97 quirks that were lost between 6.10 and 7.0409:26
crimsun(obviously I'll assist)09:26
tsmithehehe "ease"...09:26
crimsunenyc: that would be all GTK+-2 and Qt3+ apps09:26
crimsunenyc: so for all practical purposes in {Ed,K,X,}ubuntu, just about everything in the shipped CD(s)09:27
=== _kjcole [n=kjcole@158.59.224.161] has joined #ubuntu-motu
tsmithequirks? in what sense?09:28
crimsuntsmithe: now the more interesting side is in userspace, like what will happen with pulseaudio and alsa-{libs,utils}09:28
tsmitheyeah09:28
tsmithethat's what i'm interested in :)09:28
enyccrimsun: i seee but not the x-server itself ?09:28
tsmithe(of course)09:28
crimsuntsmithe: most manufacturers never follow the specification09:29
tsmitheah09:29
tsmitheso how do you mean, "lost"?09:29
crimsunbetween 5.10, 6.06, and 6.10, we collected a ton of AC'97 quirks09:30
tsmithemmhmm09:30
crimsunvarious computers need certain quirks to allow binding of volume keys to certain mixer elements09:30
tsmitheoh right09:31
enycthe odd thing i noticed (not ubuntu specific) is that OSS sb16 works fine but ALSA sb16 will only work with a pnp sb16/32/64 card............09:31
crimsunenyc: i.e., "true" PnP cards.09:31
enyceven if told to use specific settings and everything -- not sure i have tried softconfig'ing the card then loading linux without reboot09:32
enycwhere OSS just works fine on them... bah09:32
crimsunthere are bugs about that; Scott and Matthew have discussed it unceasingly. Blame broken MODALIAS.09:32
crimsuntsmithe: if you don't have an appreciation for the strong hand that Microsoft forces on developers of hardware to be given driver certification, you'll see its positive sides very quickly09:33
crimsunthere're essentially _zero_ audio chipsets that don't need quirks of some sort09:34
crimsunhence we have AC'97 quirks, HDA quirks, USB quirks, ...09:34
=== twilight [n=twilight@ubuntu/member/twilight] has left #ubuntu-motu []
enyccrimsun: hrrm what about recent requirments to apparently keep much hardware spec secret to get tilt-bit-support "securty-by-obscurity" drivers-locked-to-hardware-quirks for aacs certification  mess ?09:35
enyccrimsun: is this going to cause problems in linux-driver-land ?09:36
crimsunenyc: thankfully not very much has touched audio chipsets09:36
tsmithehmm09:37
enyccrimsun: hrrm bit i wonder where this mess is going09:37
crimsunthat I don't know, else I'd have gotten out of this business a long time ago09:37
enyccrimsun: ;-)09:37
enyccrimsun: erm... so why are these font dirs changing? is this changed in debian etch too?09:38
crimsunyes, we inherited the change from Debian09:38
enyccrimsun: dapper uses old dirs, edgy usually supports both (fontconfig programs....), feisty only puts files in new location?09:39
tsmitheso wait... there are quirks even though Microsoft enforces driver certification... i don't quite understand... surely certification should mean conformance to specs, right?09:39
crimsuntsmithe: it does for "them", yes09:40
tsmitheooohhh09:40
tsmitheright.09:40
crimsunfor the most part, FLOSS doesn't get the benefit of the doubt; there's a lot of poking, proding, trial by error, etc.09:41
crimsunprodding09:41
tsmithethat's sad09:41
enycwell this means FLOSS that is looked-at/used tends to get well-fixed hence reliable ?09:42
crimsunmore reliable, generally09:42
enyccrimsun: I would like to know if feisty is _supposed_ to only be using /usr/share/fonts/X11 for x11-fonts and no-longer us /usr/share/fonts/X11/09:43
crimsunenyc: I don't have a fresh 7.04 env; check the Herd-2 desktop CD09:43
tsmithehang on...09:44
tsmitheso you really do run breezy?09:44
crimsundid you think I was joking?09:44
tsmitheyes09:44
tsmithehence, "/me doesn't believe you!"09:44
crimsunchroots are good things.09:45
tsmitheso you run breezy and have a chroot for everything else09:45
enyccrimsun: fair-enough... thanks for comments ;-)09:45
crimsuntsmithe: across most computers, either 5.10 or 6.06 is the base; all have 6.10 dist-upgraded to 7.0409:46
tsmithebut why?09:46
crimsunever tried troubleshooting/debugging/testing a fix for a release that you're not running?09:47
tsmitheah09:47
crimsunIn any case, I don't plan to leave Ubuntu in the lurch; there's definitely a need for a stronger ubuntu-audio team (essentially it has been me for one year)09:49

tsmithei'd definitely like to learn how to help out09:49
tsmitheno...09:49
tsmithei definitely will learn how to help out09:49
enyccrimsun: initial reading file-lists seems to suggest all is in /usr/share/fonts/X11/ -- most likely all put there in debian ...09:49
