Lutin?12:28

Lutinmaybe it was hapening because I was running the edgy linda on packages builded in a feisty pbuilder 12:31

sistpotybtw.: any c++ guru around, who could happen to know how I could find out the typename of the type a pointer points to?12:32
slomosistpoty: almost no c++ knowledge here... but afaik you need rtti12:34
slomosistpoty: http://www.cpp-tutor.de/cpp/le16/le16_03.htm looks good12:34
sistpotyslomo: thanks for the hint, but I guess rtti is not exactly what I need...12:36
slomosistpoty: what's the difference to what you want? :)12:38
sistpotyslomo: actually I want to convert a std::list of a derived class to a std::list from a base class... give me a sec and I'll put sample code on a pastebin12:39
sistpotyslomo: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/5639/12:39
sistpotyslomo: and I don't want to simply reinterpret_cast (both are lists of pointers, so that *should* work), because I want to know if I change my class hierarchy to be no longer compatible during compile time12:40
slomosistpoty: hm what about the n other casts of c++? ;) sorry, i don't really know much about c++... it just looks confusing to me ;)12:42
=== hub [n=hub@toronto-hs-216-138-231-194.s-ip.magma.ca] has joined #ubuntu-motu
sistpotyslomo: the problem is that the lists are distinct types, so I can either reinterpret_cast them or not cast them at all :( (so I try the trick with the template to look if the elements can be type-converted implicitely)12:43

LutinLaserJock: could you have a look at mlt on revu when you have some time ?12:44
sistpotyslomo: ha, got it :) http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/5643/12:51
slomosistpoty: congrats :) what are you doing btw?12:52
sistpotyslomo: writing my thesis... a VHDL to c compiler for the faumachine project12:53
sistpotyslomo: the idea is to translate e.g. a pci-card modelled in vhdl into c-code that can be used as a component in the virtual machine12:53
slomosistpoty: wah, vhdl... the ugliest language i ever saw :) but other than that this sounds like fun12:54
sistpotyslomo: vhdl is *really* ugly... :(12:54
sistpotybtw.: http://faumachine.informatik.uni-erlangen.de/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/FAUmachine/fauhdlc/12:55
ThunderFoxYeah, I do agree with everyone, VHDL is a little obsolete in it's design.  However, getting engineers to stop using Fortran is dificult enough.01:05
LaserJockbut Fortran rocks01:06
ThunderFox*laugh* for limited use . . . newer structured scripting languages are better.01:06
LaserJocktell that to my advisor ;-)01:07
ThunderFoxFortran was revolutionary in it's time . . .  I guess that's when your advisor was young.01:07
ThunderFox;-)01:07
ThunderFoxIt's like I have an affinity for c-form basic variants.01:07
ThunderFoxI know they suck, but I can't help it.01:08
ThunderFoxI grew up with later DOS variants, there is no helping it.01:08
ThunderFoxAnyways, has anyone started considering making a Universe package for the Doom engine OdaMex yet?01:10
ThunderFoxIt recently got it's first public release (Mixed license issues prevented it earlier.  They didn't want a Doom Legacy issue set.)01:10
=== ogra [n=ogra@ubuntu/member/ogra] has joined #ubuntu-motu
crimsunThunderFox: no, but feel free.01:14
ThunderFoxGood, I'm sure the folks back at the OdaMex community will like that as a contribution.  It should get them lots of good developers.01:16
ThunderFoxShould I put it in /usr/local, where it is designed for using hacked level files, and is considered a beta-stability Alpha (prevents glitches with degunkers, and makes degunking easier if packages switch out uncleanly)01:17
ajmitchnever put any packaged stuff in /usr/local01:17
tsmithenow i've got my membership, i'm gonna work really hard to get motu01:21
ThunderFoxajmitch, Yes, I noticed most packages use a remote /usr/local directory storage if they look for extra binaries there.01:21
ThunderFoxajmitch, they tend to only create the directory in those cases.01:21
ThunderFoxajmitch, thanks for the tip.01:22

pochuhi guys! I have a small question: what's the best way to not apply a patch (.patch system) in debian/patches, rename it? and if so, what's the best?01:24
Lutinpochu: why would you want not to apply a patch ?01:25
pochuLutin: fixed upstream01:25
Lutinpochu: just delete it then01:25
sistpotypochu: fixed upstream --> remove the patch01:25
pochuLutin: and of course I say that in the changelog, right? :)01:25
Lutinpochu: sure01:26
pochuthanks :)01:26

=== jdong [n=jdong@ubuntu/member/jdong] has joined #ubuntu-motu
pochuanother question: if a patch applied in a file which no longer exists now, what should I do? (it's about a .desktop entry)01:38
Lutinpochu: nuke the patch :)01:38
Lutinpochu: if doesn't apply to any actual file, there's no point keeping it01:39
pochuLutin: ok, thanks :)01:39
Lutinpochu: you might want ot make sure the 'issue' hasn't been moved elsewhere though ;)01:40
pochuLutin: I think that was a desktop entry, which was on the source code, however I think now it's managed into debian/ subdirectory, is that possible? but that file doesn't exist anymore, now it has a menu entry01:41
=== freeflying [i=flyingfr@gobstopper.dreamhost.com] has joined #ubuntu-motu
Lutinpochu: menu entries are for debian, you need a desktop file for ubuntu. if none is provided in the upstream tarball, create one in debian/whatever.desktop and install it in /usr/share/applications :)01:42
pochuLutin: I've just found it! It's been moved into misc/ directory. The problem was that nautilus didn't show the correct name, but the app name ?01:43
pochuinstead of listen.desktop, it says Listen Music Player01:43
pochuhehe01:43
pochubut an ls in the terminal shows listen.desktop :)01:44
pochuI'll see if this is well now, or if the patch should still be applied, thanks for your help Lutin !01:44
Lutinpochu: nautilus diplays the 'name' field of the desktop instead of the actual filename :)01:44
Adri2000pochu: you are working on the new upstream release of listen?01:45
pochuAdri2000: yes, but I'm very noob, so if you are also doing it, do it, as I'm doing it just for learning01:45
pochuAdri2000: but if you want to review my work, you can do it :)01:45
Adri2000yep, and upload it, if you file an UVF exception request and if it is accepted, no problem :)01:46

=== Hobbsee [n=Hobbsee@ubuntu/member/hobbsee] has joined #ubuntu-motu
pochuAdri2000: ok :)01:47
pochudo you know why de .desktop entry should not have the "Encoding=UTF-8" line?01:48
Adri2000should not?01:49
pochuAdri2000: the patch of the desktop entry removes it, don't know why (I know about nothing hehe)01:50
Lutincan't see th reason either .. ubuntu has been using utf8 for ages01:51
pochuLutin: sure :)01:51
pochuthere is nothing else interesting in that patch, do I drop it? I think I should :)01:51
Adri2000(testing with a .desktop file without Encoding) gtodo.desktop: error: required key "Encoding" not found01:52
Adri2000desktop-file-validate says that01:52
Lutinpochu: what does the changelog says about that patch ?01:52
pochuthe other things are typos (fixed upstream)01:52
pochu+ Added 15_desktop.patch to improve desktop entry01:53
pochuit changes the description and that01:53
pochuand an [fr]  comment which no longer exist in the new upstream version01:53
pochudo you want me to put the patch in a pastebin?01:54

pochuhi guys! I have a small question: with .patch patch system, should I apply them manually before building? I think so, but I'm not sure...02:51
ajmitchdepends on debian/rules, if it has a patch system to apply them02:52

Amaranthcrimsun: is that after -8?02:53
crimsunAmaranth: will be, yes02:53

=== ajmitch hopes that the freeze doesn't go over a week this time

ajmitchprobably simple-patchsys02:56
pochuajmitch: don't know how it works :(02:57
Amaranthpochu: simple-patchsys is just drop a patch in debian/patches/ and go02:57
pochuAmaranth: then it should be applied... going to ensure :)02:58
Amaranthmake sure you name them 01-patch-name.patch and etc02:58
Amaranthso they get applied in a sane order02:58
ajmitchimportant if the patches overlap02:58
ajmitchnot so important otherwise02:58
Amaranthajmitch: if they don't overlap just name them all 01-* :)02:59
pochuAmaranth: if there is just one patch, should it be 01? or can be other number, as 10?02:59
ajmitchpochu: whatever you feel like02:59
Amaranthpochu: i'd go with 0102:59
ajmitch01 is best02:59
Amaranthnever know when you'll want to add more02:59
Amaranthwant/need02:59
ajmitcheasier to add 02 than 1000303:00
ajmitch:)03:00
pochuthere were another 01, and I removed it, so I don't know if I should use 01 or other number :)03:00
pochuhehe03:00
ajmitchit's just for patch ordering, nothing magical03:00
pochuajmitch: ok :)03:00
pochuit's called 21_listen_desktop_entry.patch (a little large) :(03:01
Amaranthnah, that's about average03:01
pochuI'm gonna rename it, but it's fine (if hasn't been applied)03:01
pochuit*03:01
Amaranthbut if the package is listen i'd call it 01_add_desktop_file.patch03:01
Amaranthor something like that03:01
pochu:)03:02
pochuany idea why it isn't applied? :S03:03
pochuinclude /usr/share/cdbs/1/rules/simple-patchsys.mk03:06
pochuinclude /usr/share/cdbs/1/rules/debhelper.mk03:06
pochuinclude /usr/share/cdbs/1/class/makefile.mk03:06
pochuthat's in debian/rules03:06
pochuyou were right :)03:06
RAOFpochu: It's possible that the patch has been previously unapplied, but the patch-stamp file hasn't been removed.03:07
RAOFThat's happend to me a bit.03:07
pochuRAOF: I've added the patch, and I haven't applied it. I thought it would be applied while building. What should I do then?03:08
RAOFIt depends on the rest of the environment, I think.03:08
RAOFI haven't used simple-patchsys before, but I have used dpatch, and that' s similar.03:09
RAOFMaybe if you pastebin the entire output of trying to build the package, it'd help?03:09

keescookajmitch: really?  uvf universe on the schedule says the 8th??04:07
ajmitchyeah, but new packages can get in later, since they tend not to break other packages04:08
ajmitchso you should be able to get away with just a sync request & some fast talking04:09

LaserJockwell, I gues more like 1806:23
ajmitchstill sick06:23
LaserJockanyway, way too much06:23

LaserJockajmitch: we did Valentines this weekend06:25
=== ajmitch briefly managed to catch up with a friend at lunchtime
ajmitchhe's in about his 6th year (or more) of his phd 06:26
LaserJockcrimsun: that's no fun06:26
LaserJockI'm starting to see the light06:26
nixternalhiya LaserJock 06:26
LaserJockbut it requires more time on research and les on Ubuntu06:26
ajmitchso is he - only another year or so of experiments :)06:26
LaserJockmy advisor started seriously talking about what I need to do to finish up06:27
LaserJockthat's a pretty major step for me06:27
ajmitchhe's not only married & studying, but has 4 kids as well06:27
LaserJockyikes06:27
ajmitchthat's a good step06:27
LaserJockit's just hard when I'd rather be working here than on research :/06:28
ajmitchtemptations lie in wait..06:28
crimsunyou have to be glutton for punishment if you enjoy bug triaging more than research ;)06:29
crimsunto be a, even06:29
LaserJockdepends on the research actually06:30
ajmitchheh06:30
LaserJockmy problem is I'll have a PhD and never get to do the research I signed on to do06:30
ajmitchthat's ok06:31
ajmitchyou can be a fulltime ubuntu celebrity06:31
ajmitchcrimsun: going to try & get to UDS Sevilla?06:32
crimsuncan't, time already spoken for06:32
ajmitchI thought it may be06:32
ajmitchyou'll be fairly busy over the next few months?06:33
crimsunyeah06:33
LaserJockI'm still not sure06:33
=== ajmitch won't be there
LaserJocka free trip to Spain for Ubuntu stuff is awefully hard to pass up06:34
=== ajmitch won't be sponsored
LaserJockbut I need to sort of step back and focus on research and home06:34
LaserJockso I don't know if it would be a good idea or not06:34
LaserJockon the other hand, one of these days I'll have a "real" job06:36
LaserJockso I should travel while I can ;-)06:36
ajmitchat least you'd get sponsored to go :)06:36
ajmitchsince you're active06:36
AmaranthI don't have a chance at being sponsored this time06:36
Amaranthand i'm still in some financial pain from the last trip06:37
Amaranthtoo many $100 cab rides06:37
ajmitchyeah, lots of pain06:38
crimsunwe need an motu/uds fund ;)06:38
Amaranthhehe06:38
=== Amaranth needs to get back into development
ajmitchpass the hat round on planet ubuntu ;)06:38
Amaranthor get the things i toy with included in ubuntu ;)06:39
ajmitchcrimsun: maybe the motu council can setup a fund & select worthy people :)06:39
crimsunthat's an idea :)06:39
ajmitch(which would exclude the council members from being selected)06:39
crimsunaye06:39
ajmitchthere was a rather long discussion in the CC meeting about conflicts of interest, etc06:40
ajmitch& there were 5 people nominated for 3 CC places06:40
ajmitch(dholbach, mdke, mikeb, jsgotangco, burgandavia)06:41
LaserJockI've dicusses a MOTU fund for sponsorships and other needs before with others06:41
AmaranthSo, my goal for feisty+1 is compiz being installed by default and being almost completely indistinguishable from metacity except for the extra "bling".06:41
ajmitchLaserJock: yes, especially for things like hardware for those that really need it06:41
AmaranthStating this here so you can make fun of me when I fail.06:41
ajmitchAmaranth: I'd expect that anyway for feisty06:41
ajmitchAmaranth: why isn't it like that right now?06:41
Amaranthajmitch: driver issues and stability problems06:42
ajmitchok, we know that drivers suck06:42
Amaranthi think nearly all of the stability problems are, in fact, driver issus06:42
Amaranthissues*06:42
ajmitchwhat differences are there between compiz & metacity in some of the functionality like viewports?06:42
ajmitchor all the little things?06:42
Amaranthall the little things06:42
Amaranthdoesn't help that ideas for the window placement code are coming from kwin06:43
ajmitchI'd welcome compiz if it integrates seamlessly & doesn't get in the way06:43
ajmitch(ie, no burning windows)06:43
Amaranthapparently since kwin itself has a bunch of different window placement options06:43
Amaranthajmitch: sudo apt-get install desktop-effects, it's like that now06:43
ajmitchit'd be nice, if it worked properly06:43
Amaranthit even uses plain old workspaces by default and uses every metacity settings that applies to it06:43
ajmitch& doesn't cause unclickable hidden windows or other stupid things06:44
Amaranthdon't have minimized windows when you start it :)06:44
ajmitchwell that's a bit stupid06:44
Amaranthindeed06:44
=== ajmitch also doesn't want to have to hack xorg.conf with arbitrary magic & restart X
Amaranththe worst case is when it throws a window offscreen06:44
ajmitchit's always rhythmbox that tends to disappear on my laptop06:45
ajmitchor on my desktop..06:45
Amaranthprobably went offscreen06:45
ajmitch"Desktop effects do not work with xinerama"06:45
ajmitchreal useful06:45
Amaranththat's a lie06:45
Amaranth0.3.6 has xinerama support, last time i checked06:45
ajmitchthat's what it claims06:45
ajmitchand so I can't turn it on06:45
ajmitchthis is just boring old nvidia twinview06:46
Amaranthyou can, just not with the big button06:46
ajmitchno real xinerama06:46
ajmitchI don't want to have to fiddle to turn it on :)06:46
Amaranthturning it on doesn't register it in autostart anyway06:46
ajmitchI want it to be like things in OSX, and Just Work06:46
Amaranthbut it does make it restart when it dies06:47
ajmitchnot be like the typical half-assed linux desktop :)06:47
LaserJock:-)06:47
Amaranthwhich is real fun, right now it restarts itself no matter _how_ you kill it06:47
Amaranthmetacity --replace? screw that, compiz is coming back on06:47
LaserJockajmitch: you should try science apps for linux ;-)06:47
Amaranthhow is gchemutils?06:48
=== ajmitch values his shreds of sanity
LaserJockAmaranth: good actually06:48
LaserJockI'm working on that tonight actually06:48
Amaranthajmitch: anyway, my goal is Just Works06:48
LaserJockworked last night til 3am on it06:48
=== ajmitch was going to hack on authtool again tonight to make it Shiny
Amaranthand a sane UI with at most 5 tabs to configure it06:49
ajmitchyeah, I'm trying to minimise UI clutter :)06:49
LaserJockbut we are planning a release for the weekend or next week06:49
AmaranthLaserJock: cool06:49
Amaranthi lost interest once i couldn't work on the shiny bits :P06:49
LaserJockhehe06:49
Amaranthwas only working on gallium because learning cairo was _fun_06:49
LaserJockI'm learning C++ and a bit of GTK06:50
Amaranthand i get off on efficient XML parsing ;)06:50
LaserJockwell, we do quite a bit of XML stuf06:50
LaserJocknot sure how efficient it is06:50
Amaranthi'm sure it's pretty good06:50
Amaranththe real problem is I/O06:51
LaserJockbut gchemtable is a heck of a lot faster than kalzium06:51
Amaranthbut kalzium does a lot of neat things06:51
LaserJockon the other hand kalzium has some wicked cool stuff06:51
LaserJock;-)06:51
Amaranthdid you see the new element layout?06:51
LaserJockyeah06:51
Amaranthoh, i think you blogged about it06:51
=== Amaranth can't remember
LaserJockme neither06:51
LaserJockI think I did06:52
Amaranththat reminds me, how do i get myself on planet ubuntu?06:52
Amaranththink i might blog more if i knew more than 100 people were reading it06:52
LaserJockAmaranth: follow the direction06:52
LaserJock+s06:52
Amaranthand those 100 people are using RSS clients to poke it06:52
Amaranthwhat directions?06:52
=== ajmitch doesn't blog, for that reason :)
LaserJockwhatever06:52
Amaranthit was fun when everyone was reading it looking for new pymusique info06:52
Amaranthor new alacarte releases06:52
LaserJockwe need to bask in ajmitch's wisdom06:53
ajmitchLaserJock: I'm sure you'll just drown in the depth of my wisdom06:53
LaserJockblogging is good for people who want to talk and not work06:53
ajmitchif you could drown in something barely ankle deep06:53
ajmitchAmaranth: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PlanetUbuntu06:53
AmaranthLaserJock: but if i talk a lot the things i do work on get more attention ;)06:53
nixternalhrmm, I just did lspci and now my wifi card is totally different than what it really is06:54
Amaranththere is no way http://steelgryphon.com/blog/?p=98 is real06:54
Amaranthi thought only new england worked like that06:54
LaserJockajmitch: they say you can drown in 1 inch of water06:54
ajmitchLaserJock: now slice that water as thin as you possibly can06:54
ajmitchthat's how deep my wisdom is06:54
LaserJockajmitch, you are so full of crap06:55
ajmitchI agree06:56
Amaranthhmm06:56
Amaranthnow to decide: my whole blog or just a certain tag?06:56
Amaranthi don't think i've ever posted something that wouldn't fit the planet06:57
ajmitchif I blogged, I wouldn't put my whole blog on planet06:57
ajmitchsince I *know* that I'd want to blog stuff that people wouldn't want on planet :)06:57
Amaranthi suppose it can't hurt to have to tick an extra checkbox to make it go on planet06:57

ajmitchwho needs consensus when you can rule by decree?07:00
LaserJockconsenus really stinks a lot of the time07:01
ajmitchyeah07:01
LaserJocknot that it's bad in and of itself07:01
ajmitchit's a fine line to try & keep people going in the same direction07:01
LaserJockit just takes forever and in the end you have something that nobody feels passionate about07:02
LaserJockof course a less-than-benevolent tyranny is no fun07:03
ajmitchmmm, design by commitee07:03
ajmitchdid you read the latest CC meeting log?07:04
LaserJockI didn't yet07:04
ajmitchthe issue of people being on multiple councils, especially07:04
ajmitchthere was a spirited discussion, mainly sabdfl, mako & ubuntugeek :)07:04
Burgundaviaand what was the conclusion?07:05
ajmitchthat people on multiple councils will recuse themselves from decisions in certain situations07:05
ajmitchyou'd need to read the logs to see07:05
Burgundaviaseems reasonable07:06
ajmitchyeah, that was mostly sabdfl being persistent07:06
LaserJockwell, I honestly don't see how we can keep all the councils/governance orthogonal07:06
ajmitchthe other side was that someone serve on only one council07:06
LaserJockunless we start voting in people just because they aren't on a team yet07:06
LaserJocks/team/council/07:07
ajmitchwhich gets pretty stupid07:07

thill2708why isn't mountiso in the repos?08:52
crimsundo you want a serious answer to a contextless question?08:53
thill2708can we do both? 08:53
thill2708whichever you like first08:53
=== Lathiat puzzles
Lathiatdid you read "to a" as "or a" ?08:53
thill2708;)08:53
thill2708or a, apparently08:54
thill2708heh08:54
Lathiatyou suck :)08:54
thill2708so it seems08:54
thill2708ok, so how would I ask that question better?08:54
LaserJockthill2708: the problem is your question is sort of rhetorical08:55
LaserJockmountiso isn't in the repos because it isn't in the repos08:55
crimsun1) no source package of that name exists in Debian08:55
crimsun2) no source package of that name exists in REVU08:55
crimsun3) no source package of that name exits in Ubuntu08:55
thill2708do I have to be the author to request it into the repos?08:55
LaserJockno08:55
thill2708how does this usually work?08:56
LaserJockbut it's generally better if you do something more than "I want mountiso"08:56
crimsun---->  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Packages/New  <----08:56
LaserJockthill2708: we have a wiki page where you can request an app08:56
thill2708ah, yeah, looking now08:57
crimsunlook, linked from the topic!08:57
crimsunwhich people obviously never read08:57
thill2708just thought I'd blurt out something before researching08:57
LaserJockcrimsun: context is: if (family & 1){08:57
LaserJockof course, that's what we all do ;-)08:57
LaserJockexcept crimsun of course :-)08:57
StevenKLaserJock: What type is family?08:57
LaserJockint08:57
StevenKLaserJock: It's bitwise AND.08:58
LaserJockso what is that doing then?08:59
StevenKLaserJock: Which is silly, because it's the same as 'family == 1'08:59
LaserJockok, that's sort of what I thought it was08:59
LaserJockbut I'm not quite sure how an AND would do that09:00
LureStevenK: not precisely, it checks if family is odd number09:00
LaserJockhmm, how would I do "if family == 1 or family ==0"09:02
StevenKYup, Lure is correct. I didn't check closely enough.09:03

=== Amaranth [n=travis@ubuntu/member/Amaranth] has joined #ubuntu-motu
LureLaserJock: bitwise AND 1 means that it checks the lowest bit in integer (bits go for 1, 2, 4, 8,...), therefore if you do bitwise AND 1, it will return true if lowest bit is 1 and since only this bit can give you odd number (all other bits give you multiple of 2 or sign (this is highest bit for int)09:30

ajmitchyou're wanting to get further into the java areas?10:56
tmarblei dropped in to #ubuntu-meeting as I am most keen on becoming a MOTU (looking for advice on the next steps)10:56

ajmitchmaybe we could trade something for MOTU status, like a T2000 :)10:59
tmarblehahahaha10:59
siretartslomo: ajmitch: I remember we agreed on that for SRU, not sure about UVF, but that's probably a good idea anyway10:59
=== tmarble sees fabbione has been bragging about his machines :)

siretartnot sure if I'm gonna make it11:00
ajmitchsiretart: right, it may have only been for SRU, not UVF11:00
ajmitchsince for UVF you may not have the whole thing to upload11:01
ajmitchtmarble: a local startup got some T2000s to play with, and I ended up setting up ubuntu on one11:01

=== ajmitch had the model with 16GB RAM, 8 cores
tepsipakkiwe had one too, but I never saw it11:05

StevenKThey're 1 or 2RU, I can't remember which11:06
StevenKAnd noisy as hell11:06
ajmitch2U, iirc11:06
tepsipakkiheh, we have a rack of 1U HP opteron-servers.. they are mighty loud :)11:06
tepsipakkiglad that I don't have to visit the server rooms that often anymore..11:07
tmarblewell, yes, they *are* loud (at the advantage of being rather energy efficient).... on the SWaP metric (including space, heat and power along with performance) they outperform the competition 5x to 8x11:08
ajmitchthey're also quite fast (for certain tasks) :)11:09
siretartah, this remembers me, I did talk to michael at the local departement here, looks like we could setup a sprac dev machine for MOTUs11:10

Laser_awaydholbach: seems like we should use motu-*06:39
dholbachassign or subscribe motu and then mark 'bitEsize'06:39
Laser_awaybut then how do can't just search for motu tags06:40
dholbachhttps://launchpad.net/~motu/+subscribedbugs?field.searchtext=&orderby=-importance&search=Search&field.status%3Alist=Unconfirmed&field.status%3Alist=Needs+Info&field.status%3Alist=Confirmed&field.status%3Alist=In+Progress&field.status%3Alist=Fix+Committed&assignee_option=any&field.assignee=&field.owner=&field.status_upstream=&field.status_upstream-empty-marker=1&field.omit_dupes.used=&field.omit_dupes=on&field.has_patch.used=&field.tag=bites06:41
dholbachize06:41
dholbachyou can search for tags06:42
Laser_awayI guess06:42
Laser_awayseems overly complicated but it would keep the number of tags down06:43
dholbachwhat do you you suggest?06:43
dholbachI don't think that tagging bugs is complicated06:43
dholbachwe can have  tinyurl  for those canned searches on MOTU/Bugs06:43
Laser_awayI just wonder how much people will really pay attention to them06:44
bdmurraydholbach: I think tagging bugs is harder than it should be though06:45
dholbachI think it's a lightweight process of indicating "here's a problem that lies in packaging"06:45
Laser_awaysure06:45
Laser_awayI just think people might search for motu-* tags06:46
Laser_awayto see what different things are going on, etc.06:46
Laser_awaybut as you say, assigning or subscribing motu would fix that I guess06:46
dholbachI think we should have ONE specific tag across the distro06:46
Laser_awayalong with the canned searches06:46
dholbachyou can still search for universe bugs among them06:47
Laser_awayI just wonder how useful a tag is if it's so general that you have to then do more searching to narrow down the results06:47
Laser_awaybut I see your point06:47
dholbachbecause a new contributor wants to see bitesize tasks because she wants to help out06:48
dholbachat the moment there is NO bitesize task at all06:48
dholbachand I guess she doesn't care if it's in Universe or Main :)06:48
siretart_bitesize? what's that?06:48
dholbachsiretart_: a thing that you can fix "in one bite" :)06:49
siretart_wow06:49
siretart_:)06:49
dholbachsiretart_: if you don't want to "bite off more than you can chew" :)06:49
siretart_so I can mark all my bugs which I'm to lazy to upload just as bitesize, and hope somebody else does it :)06:50
dholbachyeah06:50
dholbachi wrote a mail to bugsquad and motu to mark bugs as bitesize and packaging06:50
dholbachI think it's a good way to get bugs fixed and people involved06:50
dholbachwe have some in the bughelper project too06:51
Laser_awaydholbach: I understand what you are saying, but people "do" care if it's in Universe or Main06:51
siretart_"'bitesize' if you think that it's suitable for a beginner."06:51
siretart_that sounds really useful06:51
Laser_awayperhaps the approach from ~motu works fine06:51
dholbachLaser_away: you can still make the distinction if you care06:51
dholbachif you feel strong about it, let's discuss on the mailing list06:52
dholbachi'll approve your mails on ubuntu-bugsquad@.06:52
Laser_awayI just need to think about it06:52
siretart_with 'beginner' you mean a MOTU hopeful06:52
dholbachyeah06:52
Laser_awayhmm, I guess I'm not on that list06:52
Laser_awayI should be I suppose ;-)06:52

TheMusosistpoty: np.09:52
ScottKsistpoty: I think that "may lead to problems" is, um, problematic.  Assuming the audience is people who don't know a lot about packaging, I think the FAQ should either say what bad thing will happen (and let the packager decide/ask if it's a problem) or be directive and say "If you need to remove a file from the upstream debian dir, you need remove it and repack the original tarball instead".09:56

tsmithe(hence multiple *sigh*s)12:07
sistpotyLutin: usually you don't append it to the -dev package, unless you plan to have two incompatible versions of the same library in the archives12:07
LaserJockI don't think Ubuntu wants to have that12:07
tsmitheLaserJock, that's what we're out to fix)12:07
LaserJocktsmithe: but only the author can fix it12:07
LaserJockthat's the problem12:07
tsmithewhy?12:07
Lutinsistpoty: ok, thanks :)12:07
LaserJockbecause the author is the only entity that can change the license12:08
LaserJockyou can't just relicense things for people ;-)12:08
tsmithewe're not changing anything, i hope12:09
LaserJockI think heroine is the root of the issue12:09
LaserJockyou'll have to12:10
LaserJockyou have to have license/copyright info12:10
LaserJockunless you can convince heroine to look at their code and fix it I think it's not going to get anywhere12:10
tsmithebahrgh12:11
LaserJockunless -cv steps up12:12
LaserJockbut it doesn't sound like they are very willing to do it12:12
rexbronLaserJock: cv is lazy12:12
LaserJockbut even then, I don't know that they can relicense the stuff12:12
LaserJocksince they got it from heroine, I'm assuming12:12
tsmithei don't think they can12:12
LaserJockwell, the only thing I can really see (if sending a patch doesn't work) is asking the FSF to step in12:13
=== _MMA_ kick LaserJock in the butt for the disheartening remarks. :(
LaserJocksorry _MMA_ 12:14
_MMA_:)12:14
