owhI have a sideways question to ponder. Feel free to tell me to shut up. As a member of Launchpad, I signed the code of conduct and supplied a PGP key, like I'm expecting most here. I set my key to expire in two years. This is the second key I have "in the wild". I have not yet set a key to "never expire" and wondered what others do, specifically why they do it.12:25

somerville32Mine is set to never expire12:26
crimsunowh: out of paranoia, I set mine to expire annually12:26
owhsomerville32: But what if protocols are upgraded or change, then you have a key that floats around "forever".12:27
somerville32owh, No. You can recall the key.12:27
somerville32There is a revocation certificate or something12:27
owhcrimsun: That is my quandary. Am I being paranoid? I mean, my D/L expires, my Passport expires, so why not my key?12:27
crimsunowh: my rationale is that many protocols have a timeout to mitigate certain attacks.12:28
persiasomerville32: One might lose the secret (fire, earthquake, lightning strike, tornado, typhoon, tsunami, etc.).  In that case, the revocation certificate is hard to distribute.12:28
owhsomerville32: I didn't know that. So, that would mean that you can revoke a key from the whole server tree, automatically, or does it mean that if some nefarious person has your key and refuses to revoke it, it can still be used?12:28
owhpersia: That's not as silly as it sounds.12:29
persiaowh: It wasn't meant as a joke.  My keys expire each year.12:29
owhpersia: I know. I didn't take it as such.12:30
=== somerville32 shrugs.
somerville32lol12:30
geseryou should ideally have already a revocation certificate12:30
somerville32I guess it has never meant much to me12:30
somerville32I mean, no one has ever signed my key12:30
geserso you can upload it if you lose control over you key12:30
somerville32I just use it when required12:31
=== owh was just signing an Insurance form and it needed to be on paper, but I was emailed a PDF. So I opened it in Gimp and sent them back a JPG :)

LaserJockAdri2000: pong01:14
bddebianHeya LaserJock01:14
Adri2000LaserJock: what do you want to do for this bug https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/genesis/+bug/80814, the man page already says to copy /usr/share/genesis/startup/simrc to ~/.simrc01:16
UbugtuMalone bug 80814 in genesis "genesis doesn't start from menu without ~/.simrc" [Undecided,Unconfirmed]  01:16
=== geser [n=michael@ubuntu/member/geser] has joined #ubuntu-motu
LaserJockAdri2000: well it's no good if it's run from the menu01:17
LaserJockAdri2000: people expect a menu entry to work01:17
=== persia thinks the .desktop file should be removed from genesis
Adri2000that's the other bug, Terminal=true is needed in the .desktop file01:17
LaserJockyeah, but we already filed the bug in Debian and got it through01:18
LaserJockI hate to go send an email saying "Ooops, please take it out again"01:18
LaserJockbut perhaps that's the way to go01:18
LaserJockregardless I think that genesis doesn't handle it well01:18
LaserJockthey don't say where to get the .simrc file01:18
Adri2000the man page does01:19
persiaThe ,desktop file has two purposes: it allows execution from the menu, and includes the program in app-install-data.  Perhaps the menu entry can be hidden?01:19
LaserJockI don't think that's sufficent01:19
LaserJockpersia: I don't mind a menu entry, it just should work01:20
LaserJockthat's why I filed two bugs there01:20
LaserJock1) the menu entry should work01:20
LaserJock2) genesis should copy the simrc file to ~/.simrc if it doesn't exist01:21
=== persia needs to look at Initial Reporter more carefully
LaserJockwell, I filed them for a user that came to #ubuntu-science01:22
LaserJockthey wanted to try out genesis but when they clicked on the menu entry it didn't do anything01:22
LaserJockwhen I asked to run it from a terminal they got that message01:23
Adri2000that would be easy to patch the program to say "use cp /usr/share/... ~/.simrc" in the error message01:24
LaserJockwell, that would be a start01:24
LaserJockbut it's still not sufficent for me01:24
persiaAdri2000: Alternately, a wrapper script could be installed [ -f ~/simrc ]  || cp /usr/share/genesis/startup/simrc ~/.simrc01:25
LaserJockthat's more along the lines of what I was thinking01:25
LaserJockif you used something like genesis-start and then had the .desktop call that01:26
LaserJockit should be sufficient without fiddiling around with the source01:27

LaserJockwelcome thenetduck 02:06
thenetduckhi LaserJock , I just added myself to the launchpad is it too soon for me to do that? 02:07
LaserJockthenetduck: what did you add yourself to in Launchpad?02:09
thenetduckto the contributors of packages. I02:10
thenetduckI haven't done anything yet but would to get involved 02:10
thenetduck(I am out of school for a while and it has been a goal of mine to learn and contribute since I started using Ubuntu) 02:10
LaserJockyes, that's fine. Do you have a gpg key on your launchpad account?02:10
thenetduckI.. don't think so. 02:11
thenetduckcan you explain to me what a gpg key is? 02:12
LaserJock!gpg02:12
ubotugpg is the GNU Privacy Guard.  See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GnuPrivacyGuardHowto02:12
LaserJockthenetduck: I'll let the wiki explain ^^ ;-)02:13
thenetduck:) ok 02:13
thenetduckok so it makes it so that not just anyone is downloading or uploading to that server? Kind of like a real key to the door of a server? 02:16

ToHellWithGAit's a monday in your country!02:33
Hobbseetrue that, but i'm an aussie02:36
LaserJockToHellWithGA: I don't think Ubuntu would really make that decision. Debian is where that decision would most likely take place02:37
ToHellWithGAoh right on then.  i'm afraid of those guys so i guess i'll jsut watch it play out :/02:37
LaserJockToHellWithGA: I can't imagine tetex going away very soon. texlive has still got a fair amount of bugs to work out it seems to me02:37
ToHellWithGAi was not a fan of the texlive cd02:37
ToHellWithGAso i can't see how it could be much better under *buntu02:38
LaserJockwell, I think gradually texlive will become the preferred tex distribution02:38
ToHellWithGAi don't think of debian folks as hasty, so i reckon the transition will be smooth when it happens02:39
LaserJockI would hope so02:39
ToHellWithGAthanks for the explanation LaserJock 02:39
LaserJockthe Debian TeX maintainers are pretty good02:39

persiabddebian: Plenty of packages do that, but apparently only when transitioning from one method of doing things to another.  I can't speak to policy though.04:06
bddebianpersia: Well eagle creates a .eaglerc because it runs on postinst, therefore it gets created with root perms.  It has to in order to create the license file. So I was thinking just deleting .eaglerc after the fact..04:08
persiabddebian: I can't find anything in policy that indicates you shoudn't do that, but can you be sure which .eaglerc is being created?  I'm thinking about the case of a package upgrade by a user running `sudo aptitude` from their home directory.  How does this interact with the license process?04:13
bddebianpersia: The license gets in ~/eagle afaict.  And apt-get runs as sudo right?  So what would be different.  (Probably dumb question, sorry)04:14
persiabddebian: Let me look at the specific package.  In general, I thought the user might have put customisation in ~/.eaglerc, in which case deleting this would fall under loss of user data.04:16

persiabddebian: gnome-games provides /usr/games/gtali.04:24

LaserJocknixternal: you put money on the Saints?!?!05:59
bddebianWell obviously the genesis bug doesn't seem that difficult but how do you keep .simrc from being root owned?06:08
persiabddebian: The solution dicussed earlier was to have the .desktop call genesis-startup, which was `[ -f ~/.simrc ]   cp /usr/share/genesis/startup/simrc ~/.simrc; genesis`.  Also, add Terminal=true to the .desktop file.06:11
persiabddebian: I think Adrian is working on it.06:12
bddebianpersia: OK but what if they run it from the CL? :)06:12
persiabddebian: If they run it from the CLI, the error message is posted.  Perhaps the source needs to have the error message made nicer?06:12
persiabddebian: Alternately, install genesis as the wrapper, and have /usr/bin/genesis.real be the actual binary :)06:13
bddebianOr install .simrc with 777? ;-P06:13
persiabddebian: I don't think it is a good idea to install it in the postinst, as the system may be a multiuser system, and a new user may be created, for whom there is no .simrc.06:14
bddebianWhat is the "working" dir for genesis, ,do you know?06:15

LaserJockwell06:26
LaserJockI think providing a wrapper around genesis wouldn't be that hard06:27
LaserJockalthough it aggravates me when upstreams don't take the time to think about this sort of thing06:28
bddebianI suppose the easiest thing would be to add the wrapper genesis_startup or something from the menu or .desktop file and have it check if ~/.simrc exists and if not copy it.  If they run it from the CL, they'll get the error and know what to do I suppose.06:31
LaserJockwell, I think running it from CL should do the same thing though06:32
LaserJockbut it should at least work from the menu06:32
persiabddebian: IF you're worried about the command line interface, reference the wrapper in bristol.  /usr/bin/bristol is a shell script that does all the fancy stuff, and /usr/bin/bristol.real is the actual executable.06:33
bddebianWell we could hack the executable itself I suppose :-)06:33
LaserJockI'm just not sure if it's a good idea to move the genesis binary to binary.real06:33
persiaLaserJock: Why not, if it is to be wrapped?06:33
LaserJockpersia: if something else relies on /usr/bin/genesis being the binary06:34
LaserJockit's probably perfectly safe in this instance06:34
bddebianpersia: I have to agree with LaserJock.  What if something else expects it there?  Say genesis-convert or whatever that is06:34
LaserJockbut just moving around binaries seems a little invasive06:34
LaserJockbddebian: in that instance though still, the wrapper just calls genesis.real06:34
LaserJockso it's just adding a couple lines before executing it06:35
persiaI see.  I'm not sure most of that can't be worked around using $*, but it's probably safer not to modify it (especially for non-regular users).06:35
LaserJockI can't see how it would do any harm06:35
bddebianLaserJock: I mean /usr/bin/genesis-convert exists already.  Does it expect genesis?06:35
LaserJockbddebian: doesn't matter though06:35
bddebianWhy not?06:36
LaserJockbecause it will get genesis if it runs genesis06:36
LaserJockit just has a couple lines of code inbetween06:36
bddebianAhh I see what you mean06:36
LaserJockbut I can see if there was hardcoding somewhere there could be a possibility of something going wrong06:37

persiaStevenK: Torcs doesn't crash when I use ";" as a control character.  What other characters do you suggest changing?09:16
StevenKI'm not sure, since my XML escaping is a little rusty.09:16
persiaStevenK: I'm not familiar with all keyboards in use, but I think only ;, <, and > are common XML characters that are also unshifted characters on some keyboards.09:17
StevenKPersonally, I'd assign curParam->value to a temporary value, and then switch() on it, changing the temporary variable to the entity, and then printing the whole lot.09:17

StevenKIt's a char, not a string, surely?09:19
persiaStevenK: It's a string.  The interface limits it to a single character for controls, but the same output interface is also used for things like the Player name, and I'm not writing a patch that separates that: upstream can change it if they really want.09:19

StevenKHold on, is it a STL string, or a char *?09:20
StevenKpersia: A caveat is that my C++ is rusty as hell. :-)09:21
persiaStevenK: char* (my C++ is based on the assumption that mostly it's like C).09:22
=== StevenK nods
StevenKRight, for char *, use strncmp(). STL strings come with their own comparsion routines and headaches.09:22
=== persia goes to update the patch
StevenKNote strncmp() of course takes 3 arguments. :-)09:23
persiaStevenK: man page indicates strncmp(str1, str2, n).  Does that match your memory?09:23
StevenKIndeed09:24
StevenKpersia: Perhaps you should say strncmp() == 0, given that strncmp() can return less than 0, which means curParam->value was less than "&".09:25

persiaStevenK: I understand you to be saying that LP only validates that the package is signed by a valid key, but doesn't require that the authenticity of the key is verified.02:01
Hobbseethe end effect is that someone can change the key on LP, LP doesnt require the new one to be signed, or to be of that user, presumably, so the only safeguard is the launchpad p/w02:01
StevenKpersia: It *does* check the signature, and *does* check it against a Launchpad account. That isn't the issue at all. What the issue is, is that some -dev member gets their Launchpad password comprimised, and some nasty person removes the current GPG key, adds their own, and uploads nasty crap into the archive.02:02

Hobbseeah...that's right02:02
=== persia enjoys the discrepancy with the documentation on w.u.c/GPGKey
=== StevenK reads it
persiaStevenK: I see.  In that case, the solution is more annoying and complicated.  Thanks for the details.  (LP could authenticate with certificates, or something)02:04
StevenKOr could refuse to accept a key unless it can verify at least signature in the keyring.02:05
Hobbseepersia: effectively, you'd have to ensure that the real name on LP was in fact the real name on the key - and that the primary email on LP was on the key too02:05
StevenKat least one02:05
Hobbseethat too02:05
StevenKHobbsee: Somewhat less important, since the person signing it would have checked that02:05

persiatepsipakki: Does the new version include any fixes for outstanding bugs in Debian or Ubuntu?  If so, it's a good idea to include these in your changelog.  Also, if there are no bug fixes, it's a good idea to include some rationale explaining why someone should upload it.02:27
persiaHobbsee: So it can go in?  torcs depends on libjsw, and I just fixed a torcs bug, and I'd rather the builds happened in the appropriate order to use the new fixes.02:28

persiaLaserJock: OK.  And there should be a separate document for each process, explaining all the roles, and who does what when, and the decision tree?  Much of the information seems available for gleaning from other parts of MOTU/.10:22
LaserJockyes10:22
LaserJockI want to make the MOTU wiki pages more compact/organized/updated10:23
persiaLaserJock: Was my draft roughly on target?  If so, I'll proceed to collect information from the Wiki, editorialise, and add pages in that namespace.10:23
=== mikhail^ [n=dean@124.106.241.148] has joined #ubuntu-motu
LaserJockpersia: it looks good, I think SRU is the only process that has a specific policy/worflow nailed down so I wouldn't mess with that right away10:26

=== poningru [n=poningru@ip24-250-198-222.ga.at.cox.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu

ScottKNow that the MOTU meeting is over, if any MOTU has time for reviewing... I have two packages looking for a 2nd advocate: http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?upid=4115 and http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?upid=412710:27

LaserJockif you want to help out there it would be greatly appreciated10:29
persiaLaserJock: OK.  So page structure consists of the following outline, initially to be added below the current text: 1. Policy Statemets,   2.  Procedures (2a, 2b, 2c...),  3. Draft policies (need approval by MOTU meeting or MC) 3a patching, 3b, SRU, 3c, SYNC, 3d, DROP, 3e, etc., 4. Draft Procedures...10:30

LaserJockinitially pretty much everything will be in there10:40
persiaLaserJock: So rather than write the procedures, you're asking that I first mark all the old/outdated pages in Category MOTU as Category MOTUCleanup?10:40
LaserJockwell, we'll need a bit of both10:40
persiapersia: I'd rather start writing procedures, and only after the drafts are considered acceptable by at least a couple of MOTUs begin replacing the current material (although I agree it needs much work).  What do you think of setting MOTUCleanup on those pages that are believed to be replaced as a start, and then marking the rest once the body has migrated?10:42
LaserJockpersia: for your immediate goal of getting procedures or "best practices" on the wiki I don't think you need to ad them to a cleanup category10:42
LaserJockpersia: I did create the MOTU/Sandbox/ namespace for drafts10:43
LaserJockyou might want to use that10:43
LaserJockI hate having old wiki pages that we have to delete or redirect10:43
persiaLaserJock: OK.  I'll start with adding to MOTU/Sandbox, and then start looking at cleanup.  All the equipment in my MDF is being replaced today, so there will likely be a gap between when I start and when I get more done.10:44
LaserJockpersia: no problem. any help is appreciated. I made a push to get rid of a bunch of our old stuff10:44
LaserJockbut I haven't had time to fix the current stuff10:44
LaserJockor move the structure around better10:44
persiaLaserJock: Can the pages be renamed?  I'm not sure that creation of MOTU/Sandbox/foo is desireable, if it later needs to be MOTU/Processes/foo.10:44
persiaLaserJock: time is what I currently have.  Soon enough I will have none, so I'm happy to help now.10:45
LaserJockwell, they can be renamed, but you can also just move the contents10:45
LaserJockI want to be able to delete MOTU/Sandbox/foo once we are done drafting10:45
LaserJockwhat seems to happen is people draft in MOTU/foo and then when it's done we realize it should go in MOTU/bar/foo10:46
persiaLaserJock: Ah, so I should add all the draft pages as sections in MOTU/Sandbox, for placement as new pages once they have passed first review?10:46
LaserJockand so we have to put in a redirect or delete10:46
LaserJockyeah10:46
persiaLaserJock: Got it.  I can work with that.10:46
LaserJocksometimes there is discussion as to where to put it too10:47
LaserJockand putting it in the sandbox provides a neutral territory to draft10:47
persiaLaserJock: Sounds like each section deserves a discussion subsection.10:48
