[12:22] hei all, are messages like this a problem when building a package under pbuilder? dpkg-gencontrol: warning: no utmp entry available and LOGNAME not defined; using uid of process (0) [12:22] or is that normal? [12:23] jussi01: these are pretty normal [12:23] thats no big deal [12:23] ah, thanks [12:30] does debian/changelog already close LP bugs? [12:30] or isn't it implemented yet? [12:30] i think the LP part is still missing === matt_good [n=matt@206.106.238.42] has joined #ubuntu-motu [12:30] ok, ty [12:32] will we get karma if we close a bug via an upload? *g* [12:33] sistpoty, lots of ... but karma is inflational anyway [12:33] :) [12:34] hehe === cbx33 [n=pete@ubuntu/member/cbx33] has joined #ubuntu-motu [12:36] now even more trickier: will I get karma if I sponsor an upload which fixes a bug? :P [12:36] we should make sure to have karma bund to gpg keys then :) [12:37] sistpoty: do sponsoring give karma? [12:37] sistpoty: I know I've gotten karma for packages other sponsored for me.... [12:37] but unsre if that's reciprocal [12:37] jdong: no idea... I don't think so... but I also guess I don't get karma for doing uploads atm [12:37] and we should really make sure that all these karma issues are drafted in the spec :) [12:37] and even more important we should be able to redeem karma for beer :) [12:38] haha [12:39] jdong, where does pbuilder usually put the debs it makes? [12:39] jussi01: /var/cache/pbuilder/results [12:39] jussi01: /var/cache/pbuilder/result [12:39] damn :P [12:39] hehe, thanks [12:39] [:-1] [12:39] there fixed it. [12:40] bash: [:-1] : command not found [12:41] nope ... [12:41] you need to call /usr/bin/python before :P [12:42] sistpoty, argh, thats evil ... flpsed is nearly an anagram of ltspfs ... very irritating ... [12:42] err ltspfsd [12:42] sorry ;) [12:43] admit that was intentional ... to confuse me ... [12:43] of course ;) [12:43] :) === Slant [n=scott@sa8169016.temp.wsu.edu] has left #ubuntu-motu [] === mgalvin [n=mgalvin@ubuntu/member/mgalvin] has joined #ubuntu-motu === mgalvin [n=mgalvin@ubuntu/member/mgalvin] has joined #ubuntu-motu === ogra_ [n=ogra@p548AEDA3.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu [01:04] does anybody know why I'm getting this error? It has failed twice at the same point, but building with dpkg-buildpackage builds fine [01:04] http://pastebin.com/899125 [01:05] It's wesnoth 1.2.2 :) === mgalvin [n=mgalvin@ubuntu/member/mgalvin] has joined #ubuntu-motu [01:07] don't know why it fails in pbuilder but not with dpkg-buildpackage... maybe a build-depends missing? [01:09] pochu: Is your system and pbuilder chroot up to date? [01:10] TheMuso: right, one hour ago [01:10] with the main archive [01:10] ok [01:11] I'll update again, to ensure :) [01:11] Do you have pbuilder set up so that if a build fails, you are automatically left with a prompt inside the chroot? [01:11] TO do further exmination? [01:13] TheMuso: no, I haven't [01:13] TheMuso: should I have it? [01:13] That might be worth doing. [01:13] Especially for what I am about to suggest. [01:13] TheMuso: what should I do, edit the .pbuilderrc? [01:13] No, it can be done with pbuilder hooks. [01:14] It's interesting that ld did report why it failed. [01:14] What you want to do, is make sure the directory /usr/lib/pbuilder/hooks exists. [01:15] Then cp /usr/share/doc/pbuilder/examples/C10shell /usr/lib/pbuilder/hooks [01:15] it doesn't exist, do I create it? [01:15] And finally make sure HOOKDIR in /etc/pbuilderrc points to /usr/lib/pbuilder/hooks [01:15] What doesn't exist? [01:16] /usr/lib/pbuilder/hooks [01:16] yeah create it [01:18] TheMuso: done :) [01:18] Ok, how many ELF binaries/libraries does the package produce when built? [01:18] let me look [01:19] 11 +1 I have added (meta package) [01:19] total: 12 :) [01:20] I don't mean actual packages. [01:20] I actually mean either shared libraries, or binaries that go in usr/bin etc. [01:20] elf? === Ash-Fox [i=UNKNOWN@fgd182.internetdsl.tpnet.pl] has joined #Ubuntu-motu [01:20] Its the binary format used for Linux. [01:20] ah, didn't know :) [01:20] stands for executable and linkable format === Amaranth [n=travis@ubuntu/member/Amaranth] has joined #ubuntu-motu [01:21] TheMuso: how can I check that? I'm not sure about it :( [01:22] Build the package with dpkg-buildpackage, then go into the staging area for your package, if there is one, ie debian/tmp. Then look in usr/bin and usr/lib if it exists. [01:23] if the package doesn't use a temporary staging area for files, then you will have to go through each package's staging directory individually. [01:23] it does [01:24] Right. [01:25] there is neither usr/bin/ nor usr/lib in debian/tmp/ [01:25] What is in there? [01:25] there is a usr/share and a usr/games [01:25] sorry, in usr/games [01:25] forgot that it was a game. [01:25] and even var/games [01:25] TheMuso: np :) [01:25] 4 executables [01:25] wesnoth, wesnothd, wesnoth_editor (executalbes) [01:26] Ok, attempt to build the package in pbuilder again, and wait till you get given a prompt inside the chroot [01:26] and a perl script (wmlxgettext) [01:26] TheMuso: ok [01:26] building :) [01:33] oh darn [01:33] sistpoty: you around? [01:34] LaserJock: yep [01:34] LaserJock: of course he's around, it's not 4am yet [01:34] :P [01:34] heh [01:34] well, it was sort of a false alarm [01:34] siretart was the one I was after [01:35] hehe ok :) [01:35] easy to confuse them ;) [01:35] LaserJock: ok... he went to bed some time ago [01:35] I was just going to say, with respect to the MOTU wiki [01:35] that I started implementing Jono's style to MOTU quite some time ago [01:35] but I wasn't able to get very far [01:36] I created a MOTU header [01:36] and worked a bit on MOTU/ === sistpoty just works on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Newsletter [01:36] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Sandbox/MOTU [01:36] sistpoty: yes, I saw that. that's what reminded me [01:36] pochu: How goes the build? === ajmitch is just working on various little things, nothing on the wiki [01:37] TheMuso: building :) [01:37] pochu: Ok. [01:37] ajmitch: I'm on fire today [01:38] called a couple companies and ordered some parts, went to a meeting, proctored and exam, another meeting, fixing Edubuntu docs, ... [01:38] LaserJock: scary [01:38] TheMuso: failed, I have a prompt :) [01:39] Ok. from another terminal, copy those binaries from the debian/tmp/usr/games dir from the successful build into the chroot/ The chroot is in /var/cache/pbuilder/buildd/* or something like that. [01:39] ajmitch & sistpoty: what do you think of the sandbox MOTU page ^^ ? [01:39] The dir is named with a number, likely the pid of the pbuilder process. [01:39] ok, going to do [01:40] I could probably move most of the MOTU/ content there and replace MOTU? [01:40] s|?|/| [01:40] sorry, /var/cache/pbuilder/pbuildd === TheMuso sighs. [01:42] TheMuso: there is nothing in /var/cache/pbuilder/pbuildd, no directories [01:42] LaserJock: looks quite good [01:42] I wish there was a way to force an ISP's transparent proxy to flush its cache. [01:43] LaserJock: the "current working mode" is great! [01:43] pochu: When the build failed, did it say that it was cleaning up?\ [01:43] and is the prompt you have a root prompt? [01:43] TheMuso: no, and yes [01:43] hmmm. [01:44] sistpoty: yeah, I imagined that as sort of "Where are we in the release and what are we focused on" thing [01:44] TheMuso: though I'm trying to copy them from another terminal (user one) [01:44] Right. === rexbron [n=rexbron@keele-b240-142.airyork.yorku.ca] has joined #ubuntu-motu [01:44] Try and find the source package in /var/cache/pbuilder or any of its subdirs. [01:45] so something like find /var/cache/pbuilder -name wesnoth_* or something like that. [01:45] LaserJock: maybe the teams should be moved to a subpage, and instead something like "motu is organized by a number of teams, who care for specific aspects of universe..." be inserted in the front page? [01:45] sistpoty: that page is based on a fairly old (2006) version of MOTU/ maybe I should update it and polish it and email -motu? [01:45] LaserJock: that would be great! [01:46] sistpoty: yeah, I was thinking of a table or something easy to see all the team [01:46] TheMuso: ok, doing [01:46] sistpoty: but I don't think wiki works very well for that, at least I don't know how to do it in a good way [01:47] hm... [01:48] TheMuso: emilio@kiko:/var/cache/pbuilder/build$ ls [01:48] 15477 5744 [01:48] TheMuso: though both directories contain "/" [01:48] TheMuso: bin, usr, var, home... [01:48] which one has the package source in it out of those two? [01:49] Its in the /tmp/build dir I think. [01:49] emilio@kiko:/var/cache/pbuilder/build/15477/tmp/buildd$ ls [01:49] wesnoth-1.2.2 wesnoth_1.2.2-0ubuntu1.dsc wesnoth_1.2.2-0ubuntu1.tar.gz [01:49] :) [01:50] LaserJock: maybe it might make sense to invite ppl. to contribute on the front page, hinting to correct any wiki-errors they may find... however that might also just be one of may ideas which won't work after all ;) === _jaldhar [n=jaldhar@c-24-0-153-89.hsd1.nj.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu [01:50] sistpoty: well, let me sort of clean it up and update it then I'll open it up for people to thrash around [01:51] LaserJock: cool! rock! [01:52] TheMuso: do I paste them inside its directory? [01:52] pochu: Anywhere inside that chroot is fine. [01:52] ok [01:53] LaserJock: btw.: the top-table with links is very nice :) [01:53] TheMuso: done :) [01:53] (as is the contents thingy... I'm still baffled how you do it) === bddebian [n=bdefrees@c-71-224-172-103.hsd1.pa.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu [01:54] hey bddebian [01:54] pochu: Now what you want to do, is use the ldd command to determine whether any of those binaries can be used with the libraries in the chroot. So something like ldd wesnoth will give you output similar to this. [01:54] pochu: http://www.pastebin.ca/395422 [01:55] pochu: Obviously it will be different, but you get the idea. [01:55] TheMuso: right :) [01:55] TheMuso: trying [01:55] Check all binaries, and check that all libraries a binary needs are present [01:55] Heya gang [01:55] Hi pochu [01:55] Heya bddebian. [01:56] Hi TheMuso [01:56] TheMuso: seems this is missing: [01:56] linux-gate.so.1 => (0xffffe000) [01:56] hi bddebian [01:56] pochu: No thats fine. [01:57] Heya sistpoty [01:57] ah, ok [01:58] TheMuso: seems ok to me, do I pastebin it for you? [01:58] TheMuso: give me a moment [01:59] pochu: If you want to, but unless you can see any not found messages, than that rules out a missing library at least. [01:59] TheMuso: http://www.pastebin.ca/395430 [01:59] TheMuso: do you mean the build-depends? [01:59] pochu: You could check all the libraries that are linked for the binaries have their dev files present. [02:00] otherwise I'm out of ideas. === sponix [n=family@c-68-51-218-143.hsd1.ga.comcast.net] has left #ubuntu-motu ["Leaving"] [02:03] Anybody around who is a moderator for the universe sponsors ml? === mjunx [n=matt@70.131.200.186] has joined #ubuntu-motu [02:33] sistpoty: not mentioning the build farm stuff yet? :) [02:33] ajmitch: consider contributing ;) [02:33] hehe === ajmitch can't write :) [02:34] :P [02:34] ? [02:35] imbrandon: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Newsletter [02:35] ahh [02:36] now it only needs some text (as do most other points) [02:36] imbrandon: you could probably write something in there about ubuntuwire.com [02:36] yup yup, i probably will tonight when i'm at work [02:36] cool, thx! [02:36] too tired to atm heh === sistpoty is beyond the state of tiredness right now [02:37] imbrandon: what about blogs for ubuntu people? :) [02:37] that might be cool, a multi site wp install wouldent be hard [02:37] and the webserver is already seperate [02:37] apart from the fact that it's wp [02:37] and i alraedy give jabber/email away [02:38] infact i could probably use the jabber/email id for the blogs [02:38] security *cough*, *cough*... wp had some bugs assigned to motu-swat which weren't fixed for some time (and maybe still aren't?) *g* [02:38] imbrandon: consider using debian packages :P [02:38] sistpoty, i install right from wp.com [02:38] hehe [02:38] sistpoty: wp & security don't go together :) [02:41] if i do blogs ajmitch you have to agree to signup for one, since it was your idea ;) [02:41] sistpoty: how's the teams in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Sandbox/MOTU ? [02:42] LaserJock: nice [02:42] sistpoty: do you think that'd be suitable for getting all the teams on the front page? [02:43] LaserJock: yep [02:43] that's silly Uncommon Programming Languages team makes everything hard :-) [02:44] sorry [02:44] imbrandon: oh I can sign up [02:45] doesn't mean I'll blog :) [02:45] lol [02:45] oh, so we already have a security team for universe... seems like motu-swat is redundant then? === ajmitch has no hackergotchu, so can't go on planet [02:45] sistpoty: hah [02:45] the "security team" is rather defunct [02:45] hehe === LaserJock goes to register immitchy.wordpress.com :-) [02:46] LaserJock: ? [02:46] lol [02:46] ajmitch: that way I get to blog and you get the flames :-) [02:47] oh darn, I was thinking MOTU Swat == MOTU QA === firephoto [n=tom@pool-71-115-214-25.spknwa.dsl-w.verizon.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu [02:47] bbiab food time [02:48] LaserJock: no, motu-swat is the new motu-security. and we sometimes even get things done... sometimes... rarely... and only because keescook is doing most of the work ;) [02:48] mhm [02:48] or geser [02:48] or anyone else, not me :P [02:50] LaserJock: lucky me [02:50] of course [02:51] hm... many team pages look kinda outdated... maybe we should do some cleanup there as well? [02:51] yes [02:53] (including upl, which wasn't very active lately) [02:57] upl? [03:00] What is upl? [03:00] uncommon programming languages, since LaserJock complaind :P [03:00] +e [03:00] hehe [03:00] what I'm doing right now [03:01] You're writing Lisp now? :-) [03:01] is listing the ones from MOTU/Teams [03:01] fortran :) [03:01] that have LP teams [03:01] heh === LaserJock forms MOTU Fortran [03:01] w00t [03:01] since it obviously doesn't belong to UCL [03:01] or UPL [03:02] So if I want a char* to point to another pointer is it just foo = bar; or foo = &bar? [03:02] bddebian: foo = bar; [03:02] Hmm, that's what I thought [03:02] #$%#!$ [03:02] &bar would give you the pointer to bar... so if bar is a pointer you end up with a pointer to a pointer [03:03] Well bar is actually a 2 dimensional array at this point :-) [03:03] which can sometimes be usefull [03:03] bddebian: then bar is a pointer to a pointer already... [03:03] Right [03:04] heh, true [03:04] bddebian: so I guess you'll want s.th. like foo = bar[42] ... unless foo is an array itself [03:04] (to pointers) === fernando [n=fernando@unaffiliated/musb] has joined #ubuntu-motu [03:07] Actually what I really want is a char* struct element to = a const char[5] [3] but no matter what I do I can't get it to work :_( [03:08] anyone here use svn? :P [03:09] bddebian: got some code to look at?

[04:17] that's a typical user error with just about every VCS [04:17] i guess you cant solve it properly in an automatic way [04:17] not without dumping crap into the repo [04:17] so its a matter of habit [04:18] in git it won't commit anything until you git-update-index it, i've found myself realizing i added a file and forgot about it when i check git-status to see what i need to feed to git-update-index [04:19] so it's more annoying 99% of the time but saved your ass in that 1% [04:19] saves* [04:19] ogra: ah, that's unfortunate [04:20] wow, Mail.app just signed my email for me [04:21] neat [04:22] ogra: add a bzr alias for 'commit=commit --strict' [04:22] that gives you the same behaviour [04:23] cool, thanks 1 [04:23] !

[10:32] TheMuso: afaik dh_desktop adds postinst rules for update-desktop-databse for assigning mime-types, correct?

[10:33] So are items supposed to show up immediately? If they are, I don't know how thats done. [10:33] Is it important that a .desktop file is shipped in the same package as the binary? [10:34] for know I have it in binary-indep package coming along [10:34] I would think so. Many packages I have worked on have done so.

[11:57] isn't it a java ide? [11:57] no idea [11:57] it's a java IDE [11:57] yes! [11:57] let me link to netbeans.org [11:57] removing /usr/share/dbconfig-common/dpkg/config.mysql fixes it! [11:57] i thought it was like cpan modules or pear db stuff [11:57] http://www.netbeans.org/ [11:57] NetBeans refers to both a platform for the development of Java desktop applications, and an integrated development environment (IDE) developed using the NetBeans Platform.

[12:54] Hobbsee, +1 [12:54] Hobbsee: But you' [12:54] craptastic , bbiab [12:54] *you're a Kubuntu-person. [12:54] and get out of any leadership role possible in ubuntu [12:55] Fujitsu: i think that's why it makes it so bad [12:55] Hobbsee: That's what I meant. [12:55] Hobbsee: hmm, I think that about every day [12:55] 'tis a nice Council v. Council battle. [12:56] i just stoped reading it after crimsun's last email, it made the most sense of them all [12:56] somehow I keep getting up every morning and start plugging away [12:56] imbrandon: yes, it was much better than mine :/ [12:56] it's still really weird to hear all of them bitch to high heaven about support for them, when i've never seen most of them triage a KDE bug in their lives... [12:56] imbrandon: That was the last email there was in that thread :P [12:56] The mail exchange on -motu is very tame. [12:56] Says the Debian developer ... [12:56] heh [12:56] StevenK, ;) [12:56] Hobbsee: Look at Beryl. It's not even in Ubuntu. [12:57] KDE is relatively stable, and is in main now. === Fujitsu stops. === fernando [n=fernando@189.0.148.225] has joined #ubuntu-motu [12:57] Fujitsu: heh. === Hobbsee stomps on Fujitsu === Fujitsu is stomped on. === TheMuso has stayed out of the debate, as he doesn't have an opinion, and wouldn't touch KDE stuff unless explicitly requested to look at something. [12:58] TheMuso: Look at kdebase [12:58] The reasons for which should be self explanetory. [12:58] StevenK: Thats main [12:58] basicly it boils down to 3 things imho, not to start a fight but crimsun put it best, 1) it was in edgy the same way, to remove it now would be a regression 2) this isnt the first expirmental packages in universe 3) its not the damn MC charter to decide whats in universe about ANY package , KDE or not [12:58] StevenK: look at synaptic, that's similarly bad, iirc. === Hobbsee now doesnt really care what happens [12:59] imbrandon: it's also not the KC charter to decide a UVFe for Universe packages [12:59] imbrandon: I think it is somewhat the MC's role to decide on something big like this. [12:59] What LaserJock said. [12:59] Anyways, got an audio meeting in 7 hours, better get some sleep. [12:59] Can we not move the argument to IRC, please? [12:59] LaserJock, right, thats why it was a request [12:59] whatever the MOTU council decide goes, no point trying to say anything else. [12:59] Cya folks. [12:59] TheMuso: Night. [12:59] laster [12:59] Night TheMuso. [12:59] later* [12:59] Hobbsee: the MC shouldn't and I don't think is deciding [01:00] TheMuso: bye! [01:00] I think it's become a bit bigger issue than it needed to be [01:00] it's really not KC vs. MC and it's not MOTU vs. KDE [01:00] it's about figuring out the best way to get those packages and maintain Feisty Universe [01:01] LaserJock, but its total BS why it comes up now when its been this way the better part of a year [01:01] and from people that dont touch KDE with a long pointy stick [01:01] that's silly [01:01] most couldn't care less if it was KDE or not [01:02] LaserJock: you're not serious, are you? [01:02] the issue is a UVFe for what seems to me to be not a very strong case for a UVFe [01:02] its not the fact its KDE, if it was alsa, i would say the same thing, they arent touching it and havent in the past why care now [01:02] Hobbsee: I am, and I really wish you guys wouldn't think that people *won't* touch KDE stuff in Universe [01:03] I don't care if it's Gnome, KDE, XFCE, or FVWM [01:03] LaserJock: based on how many times i've had "can you sponsor my upload? sure, what is it? k*, oh, i dont do kde stuff, sorry" [01:03] LaserJock, it not that its KDE specificly, as i said it could be any package set [01:03] you dont need that too many times, to stop asking [01:03] but that's moot. [01:03] Hobbsee: well, that's entirely different, IMO [01:04] not feeling comfortable with a package for sponsorship is really different then being bigoted against KDE [01:04] which seems to be what you're trying to say [01:04] one effectively leads to the other, i thought [01:05] well, I'd strongly disagree, but ok [01:05] i may have my definitions wrong, though [01:05] Hobbsee: I wouldn't be particularly comfortable sponsoring uploads for most k* packages, as I don't know them. However, I treat k* packages approximately equally when doing bug-stuff. [01:05] but I really believe that if it had been some Gnome or Java or whatever packages we'd feel the same way [01:06] Allow me to repeat myself. [01:06] Can we not move the argument to IRC, please? [01:06] StevenK: Unfortunately, arguing on a mailing list or blog isn't overly effective or realtime. [01:06] LaserJock, and thats my point, if java had been done like this in edgy ( and before iirc ) and approved as a spec too at UDS [01:06] LaserJock: true. particularly java. on that basis, you leave the decision to those who actually work regularly with the stuff. [01:07] Hobbsee: no, I leave it to the MOTU to decide, or at least motu-uvf === Q-FUNK [n=q-funk@dsl48-237.uninet.ee] has joined #ubuntu-motu [01:07] Fujitsu: Point. I still hate to see us (as a team) so pollarised. [01:08] It is, in the end, up to motu-uvf to make the decision. [01:08] StevenK: I see what you mean, of course. [01:08] exactly, and the motu-uvf should take into great consideration the fact that the people that work with the packages and know them came to a concinsus, not flip it and try to remove them altogather [01:08] With Debian Developers you end up expecting it since there are a bunch of jerks in the group. :-) [01:08] you guys can't just say it's a spec and say that should automatically give it a Freeze exceptioin [01:08] LaserJock, no we're not [01:08] StevenK: the cabale [01:09] StevenK: do you mean the debian java group? [01:09] Q-FUNK: TINC [01:09] man-di: I do not. [01:09] a "no we cant have a uvfe based on this , this and this" would go over a WHOLE lot better than the MC grilling about why its even there when its been there almost a year and discussed openly many times [01:09] LaserJock, ^^ [01:09] There are a number of DDs I have in mind, but I'm not going to name them publically. [01:09] Or privately, depending on who you are. [01:09] people have just said that it seems a bit odd to do UVFes and FFes (putting stuff in NEW and then asking if it's ok seems a tad odd) [01:10] for packages that will be fairly quickly outdated, not supported [01:10] StevenK: we all know who they are. [01:10] StevenK: I agree that some DDs are ... strange [01:10] This may have gone a whole lot better if MOTU had been brought into the spec into the first place. [01:11] Q-FUNK: Well, we have our own private list... :-) [01:11] imbrandon: well, I agree that it could all be handled better [01:11] StevenK: but there are also DDs who are quiete nice and good to work with [01:11] Agreed [01:11] see actualy this is exactly why kubuntu needs a diffrent release schedule than ubuntu, ubuntu is based on gnome releases schedule ( or vice versa ) and kubuntu ends up being screwed every release by "just missing it" , look at kde 3.5.6 for edgys schedule [01:11] imbrandon: it was a bit of a sudden request for people not tracking Kubuntu [01:11] etc [01:11] StevenK: which is only accessible to those who passed DD, but never mind that. cases are still known. [01:11] Q-FUNK: I didn't mean debian-private. [01:11] LaserJock, thats just it, and its the ones that dident give a rats ass untill now making a stiink [01:11] Fujitsu: MOTU doesnt really make decisions anymore - it's the MC now. [01:12] Fujitsu: not a lot of them, anyway. or so it seems [01:12] Hobbsee: Not when that spec was defined. [01:12] true that [01:12] Q-FUNK: What I meant, is that I have a list of DDs that a jerks, and your list of who are jerks is probably different. [01:12] when the spec was defined we hand many MOTU's in on it, only me and riddell were core [01:12] Fujitsu, ^ [01:12] had* [01:12] now that there are 3 supported desktop flavors, release dates should be shifted in order to accomodate all 3 upstream's release schedules. === twilight [n=twilight@ubuntu/member/twilight] has left #ubuntu-motu [] [01:13] Q-FUNK: We'd never be able to release. [01:13] I agree with Fujitsu [01:13] Fujitsu, sure you would, just xubutnu and ubuntu and kubuntu wouldent at the same time, and univerwe would be in a perpetual state [01:13] its been talked aobut before [01:13] well, given how with KDE the above statement was "just barely missing it" it wouldn't be too hard to shift from e.g. 7.04 to 7.06 [01:13] StevenK: On which bit? [01:14] Fujitsu: [23:13] < Fujitsu> Q-FUNK: We'd never be able to release. [01:14] imbrandon: "didn't give a rats ass" is unfair I think. We all care about Universe, including KDE packages [01:15] or, as pointed by the ion upstream on debian, maybe a release ought to only be a core platform consisting of CLI tools, server daemons and X, while desktop apps would only release via backports. [01:15] just because we are unaware of everything going on with every package doesn't mean we don't care [01:15] Q-FUNK: Ewwww [01:15] There aren't enough of us to have any of us not caring about everything. [01:15] LaserJock, you just said "not tracking kubuntu" whats the diffrence in what me and you said other then you were more polite about it ? [01:15] I have to agree with StevenK. [01:15] Fujitsu: Which bit? [01:15] imbrandon: because no tracking is different than not care [01:15] StevenK: The `Ewwww' === StevenK nods. [01:16] I care deeply about what happens with Kubuntu and KDE packages in Universe [01:16] imbrandon: There's a difference between not watching every move, and completely ignoring. [01:16] I don't have time to follow everything that's going on though [01:16] let's face it, with the sheer volume of free software out there, it's become impossible to release the latest of absolutely everything in one shot. [01:16] Q-FUNK: We're not Gentoo. === Bubble [i=Bubble@unaffiliated/bubble] has joined #ubuntu-motu [01:16] i got to fix my db, lets all kiss and take it back to the ML [01:17] Q-FUNK: We don't try to, or *want* to. [01:17] Maintaining the archive in a release-ready steady constantly would be unpleasant [01:17] well, I still haven't gotten an answer to my question on the ML of usability of these packages [01:17] ubuntu has the right attitude of having ony stuff in main being guaranteed to ship the latest upstream, but with 3 desktops to track, releasing them al according to gnome's schedule doesn't work. [01:17] Q-FUNK: So take it to the Tech Board [01:17] last time I tried doing some KDE4 stuff I was told that the snapshot packages are going to be always outdated and I shouldn't use them [01:17] I'd be curious to read the log. [01:18] is that still the case? [01:18] LaserJock, no [01:18] or are these special snapshots? [01:18] LaserJock: they're somewhat usable. they'll be more usable when they hit the library freezes [01:18] it would probably help to have at least upstream gnome and kde agree on a common release schedule [01:18] Hobbsee: Library freezes are post-Feisty, aren't they? [01:18] these are the questions that I wish we had gotten to [01:18] Fujitsu: dunno. i think so, yeah. [01:18] Q-FUNK: That's not going to happen. [01:18] LaserJock, no but you got to think, parts may not be but its a whole lot better than building 300MB + of source only when you just need libs updated [01:18] you can use the binarys for the rest [01:18] Fujitsu: in fact, i'm sure it's so [01:19] Fujitsu: but we cant tell the kde development people to run feisty+1 with kernel and xorg breakage, just to get the latest kde4 - that's nto fair. [01:19] We need experimental, damnit. [01:19] Oh, we so don't. [01:19] I just felt that there was no explanation as to why these packages were important enough to warrant UVFe and FFe [01:19] That's one headache from Debian we don't need. [01:19] Fujitsu: whch is precisely what makes free software such a drag to maintain. either we finally get a common DE or either of the popular desktops is always gonna be 1 or 2 releases late. [01:19] PPA would solve this, you know? [01:19] yes [01:20] LaserJock, because no one asked for an explination ( before starting to say WTF ) [01:20] Oh damn it, I didn't want to get sucked into this argument. [01:20] imbrandon: I really don't think that's the case [01:20] StevenK: It is inevitable. [01:20] You will be assimilated. [01:20] Fujitsu: I'll ass-laminate you... [01:20] imbrandon: siretart asked Riddell a number of questions both in IRC and by email and didn't get much of a reply [01:21] LaserJock: true that. most people would know "it's kde4, a lot of kde developers run kubuntu, we need to get them easy access to kde4" [01:21] LaserJock: which i think is in the spec, too [01:21] Hobbsee: that's not exactly my point [01:21] my experience is I talk to KDE and Kubuntu devs and they say they wouldn't use them [01:22] LaserJock, thats because alot of what siretart was asking had already been hasehed out over the past months, it was disrespectfull imho not to go back and read the prior disscussion and just pop in and say "whats up" [01:22] so I'm like "hmm, why are we worrying about them then?" [01:22] LaserJock, well that experince is 100000% off base [01:22] imbrandon: we were given no prior discussion [01:22] LaserJock, omg you never looked [01:22] well, tell me otherwise! [01:22] don't just yell at me! [01:22] there is a ML, irc logs, the spec , etc etc etc === bmm [n=chatzill@cc400801-a.groni1.gr.home.nl] has joined #ubuntu-motu [01:22] imbrandon: all we were given is KC wants UVFe [01:23] no link to spec [01:23] LaserJock: true. they're of very limited values before the library freeze - but we cant really dump new packages into feisty at that point [01:23] ok and? [01:23] I mean, I just didn't feel like enough info was provided [01:23] There we go. Hobbsee has said the packages are unuseful. QED. [01:23] and much of a case made [01:23] LaserJock, you sooo need to listen to poisonus people [01:24] Fujitsu: read what i said. yet. [01:25] how does one use pbuilder to build both edgy debs and dapper debs? [01:25] Hobbsee: but that's also my point [01:25] Like right now it is set up for dapper, how would I set it up for edgy [01:25] it would seem that the library freeze packages would be the most helpful [01:25] esaym: You need to create an edgy pbuilder. [01:25] but we don't have a sane way of getting them into Feisty in Universe [01:25] ok so just do a pbuilder create edgy ? [01:25] but wont that overwrite all the dapper stuff? [01:26] LaserJock: indeed. [01:26] so why don't we put them in Feisty+1 and backport to Riddell's repo === bmm_ [n=chatzill@cc400801-a.groni1.gr.home.nl] has joined #ubuntu-motu [01:26] or will it make separate? [01:26] LaserJock: excluding on kubuntu.org. but no one apart from ridell has access to that. [01:26] LaserJock: which is the only reason they're not there already, i think. === mr_pouit [n=mrpouit@ubuntu/member/mrpouit] has joined #ubuntu-motu [01:26] ok, but that doesn't really seem to be a Universe issue [01:27] if Riddell needs access to more machines or resources I'm sure we can find some [01:27] it is, but only as the other solution is to stick them in universe [01:27] ok, to be a little more concrete and productive [01:28] Q-FUNK: if you want to play with bets, I bet that feisty will release on time, but that simple metrics will be able to show that it is of much worse quality than etch ;) [01:28] how many of the packages will be useful beyond the KDE library freeze? [01:28] LaserJock: as in, after the freeze? the updated versoins? all of them, i would expect. [01:28] I get a "Signer has no upload rights at all to this distribution" rejection from REVU, what am I doing wrong? [01:29] bmm_: you're running dput revu *.changes? are you in the link in the topic? [01:29] Hobbsee: I mean, how many of the packages you want to put in Feisty will be useful after the library Freeze [01:29] LaserJock: at the current versions, or the post freeze versions? [01:30] Yes, I am part of the launchpad group. [01:30] the versions you want in Feisty [01:30] But I didn't ask you guys to "sync with revu" though, that might be the problem? [01:30] well, for the ones post-libfreeze, all of htem, or almost all of them [01:30] Hobbsee: You're requesting pre-libfreeze, aren't you? [01:30] I mean, could a person install everything via Feisty, and be pretty much set to work after the library Freeze? [01:31] I can't imagine it'd quite work that way [01:31] Fujitsu: at the moment yes, to update again later. from my understanding [01:31] Oh, gawd. [01:31] update when? [01:31] Mass UVF exceptions post-release.... [01:31] LaserJock: not currently, ie, we cant ship codefrozen product before it's written, you know.... [01:31] Hobbsee: that's our point === Hobbsee may be wrong there, though. [01:32] Hobbsee: I'm part of the launchpad group, changelog has "feisty; urgency=low", I'm doing dput -f iolanguage_20070226-1_source.changes [01:32] Hobbsee: the -f was because I first got a rejection for "unstable; urgency=low" [01:32] I'm just trying to figure out how we are going to get useful packages to people 2-3 months after Feisty is released [01:32] fine, so say it doesnt go in at all, until the libfreeze is hit - but then we cant put in new packages at all [01:32] exactly [01:32] bmm_: you need to include revu in there [01:33] so, we just say "you want kde4, too bad, move to feisty+1" [01:33] but we can't/shouln't put in new upstream versions even if the packages do exist [01:33] which also seems like a crap solution [01:33] Hobbsee: ooh.. ok. I'll fix that... [01:33] Hobbsee: No, we say `use the kubuntu.org repos for Feisty' [01:33] Hobbsee: no, I thought that's what Riddell's repo was for [01:33] (which is what the KC discussed, incidently) [01:33] Hobbsee: thanks! [01:34] Fujitsu: they're treated the same as universe, or almost the same. [01:34] Hobbsee: I totally think those packages need to be available, but given our freezes and SRU processes it doesn't seem like the best place, IMO [01:34] quite true. [01:34] still, there's no perfect place, and i'm not sure where the best place would be. === TLE [n=kenneth@217.74.211.126] has joined #ubuntu-motu [01:34] Riddell's repo is no good? [01:35] I usually get stuff from there [01:35] LaserJock: it's i386 only, and riddell's the only one who has access to it. [01:35] if I want latest KDE packages [01:35] (to the website at all) === vil [n=vladimir@ubuntu/member/vil] has joined #ubuntu-motu [01:35] afaik, non-canonical employees cant get access to update it? [01:35] Hobbsee: ok, but that seems to be his/Kubuntu's issue [01:35] Create a KDE4 repo/component, then. [01:35] I just think we can come up with a better solution [01:36] I mean, Universe does solve the immediate issue of upload access and archs [01:36] but then you have to stick to Universe schedules [01:36] which sucks in this case [01:37] if I had anything but i386 I'd offer to help [01:37] if I had enough bandwidth I'd offer to host a repo [01:38] I have amd64, and have (privately) offered to help.

[01:42] I quite like source-only uploads. I'm not certain if it's the right thing for Debian. [01:42] how do I use apt-get to only download a deb and not install it? apt-get -d? [01:43] it is. too many packages get uploaded to debian as i386 binaries with incorrect dependencies that don't get fixed because there's not enough people on non-i386 to make it a priority for developers. [01:43] or rather, with borken build-depends [01:44] esaym: yes. man apt-get will tell you, as well [01:44] Fire RC-bugs at them. Failure to build on releaseable arches is RC. [01:44] if they only allowed source builds, nobody gets the newest of whatever until it builds correctly on the buildd. [01:44] it sure is, but I've seen cases where it doesn't get fixed. [01:45] ermm.... source uploads [01:45] NMU? [01:45] Debian has procedures for this sort of thing [01:45] some maintainers are known to revert NMU on their pcakages === jekil [n=alessand@host220-235-dynamic.4-87-r.retail.telecomitalia.it] has joined #ubuntu-motu [01:46] only allowing source uploads would add an extra safeguard that compels maintainers to fix their mess. [01:46] Or have them ignore it. [01:46] not really. if it doesn't build, it doesn't make it to unstable on any arch at all. === pochu [n=pochu@ubuntu/member/pochu] has joined #ubuntu-motu [01:47] Hobbsee: I tried apt-get -d but got an error. I am on dapper and I need to get the edgy xmms deb.

[01:47] esaym: the xmms edgy deb will likely not work on dapper. you need to rebuild it. [01:47] they don't even bother checking if indeed is incorect build-depends. === vil [n=vladimir@ubuntu/member/vil] has joined #ubuntu-motu [01:49] Yes I am back porting the one on fiesty to dapper. I wanted to look at the edgy one to see if the backported one for dapper will work on edgy....

[09:53] I don't think so [09:53] ok, I've started out at ~motuscience/+subscribedbugs [09:54] is that the problem? [09:54] Ah. [09:54] Yes. [09:54] k [09:54] That would only search in that list. [09:54] where should I be doing it then? [09:54] You want to start in /ubuntu [09:54] It's the same as a normal search.

[10:08] perhaps desktop-file ? [10:08] do we know the character constraints? [10:08] I believe hyphens are OK. [10:08] If not, I'll find out in a sec. [10:15] desktop is too general [10:15] I don't know if .desktop would work [10:16] I can't see any tags using .s [10:16] And desktop is too general. [10:16] desktop-file is pretty good. [10:19] how about missing-desktop-file to make it even more descriptive? === honestlyenough [i=honestly@gateway/tor/x-1f07710b0ab5d823] has joined #ubuntu-motu [10:20] yeah [10:20] How does the naming scheme of Ubuntu packages work? [10:21] But then we've got some that are the wrong category or similar... missing-desktop-file doesn't fit for them. [10:21] what do you mean by naming? [10:21] versioning? [10:21] If I have (source version) 0.1 on a package called mypackage, do I need to add anything beyond mypackage-0.1 ? [10:21] Fujitsu: oh, right [10:21] Yes, versioning would be more accurately describing what I'm asking. [10:21] honestlyenough: yes [10:22] Debian puts on a -X where X is an integer [10:22] honestlyenough: The name of the package is simply mypackage. [10:22] so mypackages-0.1-1 [10:22] LaserJock: I've seen -1ubuntu3 and what not, but that serves only to confuse me. [10:22] honestlyenough: in that examlple -1 is the Debian version [10:22] LaserJock: What does the 3 represent? [10:22] Ubuntu revision [10:22] LaserJock: Gothca. But what about if I wanted this package to make it into the repository? [10:22] LaserJock: The Ubuntu universe repository specifically. [10:23] if it's not in Debian then the Debian revision is 0 [10:23] It would be mypackage, version 0.1-0ubuntu1 [10:23] so -0ubuntu1 [10:23] Ahhhh. === bersace [n=bersace@did75-13-82-243-217-90.fbx.proxad.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu [10:23] So what's the difference between the Ubuntu revision number and the Debian version number? [10:23] Ah, thanks a bunch. [10:24] The Ubuntu revision is changes made in Ubuntu, and Debian is for those made by Debian. [10:24] Fujitsu: fair enough, though it would probably be better to enumerate additional tags IMO [10:24] crimsun: They're all trivial, and should be lumped together IMO. [10:24] Otherwise we're going to end up with an enormous number of widely-used tags. [10:25] honestlyenough: if you use dch -i to edit the changelog, it'll sort out the version number for you (I believe) [10:25] Maybe this is a bit offtopic, but if I submitted this to Debian, and it somehow made it through their process, would I still keep mypackage-1ubuntu3 for their releases as well? [10:25] Or would it be something entirely different like mypackage-0.1-1 [10:25] The mypackage-1ubuntu3 was supposed to be mypackage-0.1-1ubuntu3 === davromaniak [n=cyril@AFontenayssB-152-1-76-214.w86-218.abo.wanadoo.fr] has joined #ubuntu-motu [10:25] honestlyenough: mypackage 0.1-1 would be the first debian release. [10:26] honestlyenough: For a new package in ubuntu, it's 0.1-0ubuntu1, not -1ubuntu1 [10:26] Gotcha. So strip out the Ubuntu specific stuff then. [10:26] Okay, it's all clear now :) [10:26] You guys are a helpful bunch, maybe this is why Ubuntu is so popular :) [10:27] of course ;-) [10:28] honestlyenough: if you are interested in more packaging info we have a packaging guide [10:28] !packagingguide [10:28] The packaging guide is at http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/packagingguide/C/index.html - Other developer resources are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DeveloperResources [10:29] LaserJock: An Ubuntu specific packaging guide? I've read through the Debian one a few times. [10:29] Hmm, okay, I'll take a look. [10:29] Hmm, I can't seem to join the #ubuntu channel (I'm using tor). Out of curiosity, why is tor banned there? It certainly isn't banned here. [10:29] #ubuntu gets a lot of attacks [10:29] There have been a lot of attacks from tor-based users. [10:30] (it has over 1000 people in it, most of the time) [10:31] c === pwnguin [n=jld5445@camaro.cis.ksu.edu] has left #ubuntu-motu [] [10:31] gah [10:31] Ah. That's a shame. [10:31] Fujitsu: sounds fair [10:31] crimsun: So, we just have the one? [10:32] I think it's not quite so useful to seperate them [10:32] they're basically all bitesize and similar [10:33] That's what I think. === bmm [n=chatzill@cc400801-a.groni1.gr.home.nl] has joined #ubuntu-motu === bmm [n=chatzill@cc400801-a.groni1.gr.home.nl] has left #ubuntu-motu [] [10:34] Fujitsu: yes, just one [10:35] Wow, the Ubuntu guide, in my humble opinion, is sooo much better than the Debian New Maintainer's Guide. This bias might have to do with the fact that I read the Debian guide first and thus know more of the terminology for the Ubuntu guide. [10:35] But, nonetheless, the guide is really nicely designed -- website and all. [10:35] The Ubuntu guide is more aimed at normal people, I think. It's a whole lot more readable. [10:40] honestlyenough: let us know if you find something wrong or confusing, there are a few bugs in there I already know about === norsetto [n=norsetto@host27-213-dynamic.21-87-r.retail.telecomitalia.it] has joined #ubuntu-motu [10:42] \o/, new ubuntu.com is out === norsetto [n=norsetto@host27-213-dynamic.21-87-r.retail.telecomitalia.it] has left #ubuntu-motu [] [10:43] LaserJock: I noticed :) [10:44] It's apparently Drupal based... How did they convince the sysadmins it was a good idea? [10:44] wow === jwhitlark [n=jwhitlar@h-67-102-70-2.snfccasy.covad.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu === jwhitlark [n=jwhitlar@h-67-102-70-2.snfccasy.covad.net] has left #ubuntu-motu [] [10:45] Fujitsu: I don't think it is drupal === TheMuso tries to look for node paths but can't find any yet. [10:45] Probably just using aliases. [10:45] `You will soon see that the main www.ubuntu.com website has changed. It [10:45] has a new look and is now based on the drupal CMS.' [10:45] oh [10:45] doh [10:45] (mail from mnuzum on loco-contacts) === finalbeta [n=finalbet@d54C689F7.access.telenet.be] has joined #ubuntu-motu [10:46] I guess it could have been worse ... wordpress [10:46] My guess is because the fridge is also drupal, they want to keep consistancy. [10:46] The new one looks a whole lot nicer in some ways. [10:46] check out the download page [10:46] Especially without the big useless block up the top. [10:47] The tabbed thing, LaserJock? === ajmitch wonders why they chose drupal [10:47] ajmitch: No idea. I thought the sysadmins would have screamed at the thought. [10:47] tabs with radio buttons [10:47] crazy, the only download mirror for NZ/Australia is ftp.citylink.co.nz [10:48] Fujitsu: traceroute to that address & see where it ends up :) [10:48] I see they fixed my server bug :-) [10:48] Probably because drupal is actually well maintained and supported upstream, and writing extra modules is very easy. [10:48] haha, australian mirrors are listed as in europe [10:48] LaserJock: Which one? [10:48] ajmitch: Great! [10:49] "Oceana"? [10:49] Fujitsu: on the "beta" version under the server tab both items were Ubuntu 6.06 :-) === ajmitch wonders if we should file a pile of bugs on this [10:49] ajmitch: hey, I read a book about that place once. they've got cool 2-way TV screens.... [10:49] ajmitch: A few piles would be better. [10:49] Australia vs Austria perhaps? [10:50] LaserJock: Hahahahah. === Fujitsu stomps on LaserJock. [10:50] no [10:50] I mean maybe that's what they accidently did [10:50] Tangentially, I've got a really FUBAR'd machine. The CMOS battery, I suspect doesn't function. However, if the CMOS battery doesn't work, is that in any way a cause for this sort of behavior?: http://phpfi.com/215957 [10:50] Why is it Oceana/Australia!? Not only is Oceana spelt from, Australia is part of it anyway. [10:51] Let's file bugs! Lots of them! [10:51] Fujitsu: exactly :) [10:51] yes, but the I think the thought the Australia items were Austria, hence would go in Europe [10:51] ftp.citylink.co.nz will probably go to the US for anyone that doesn't peer at APE or WIX [10:51] bug away [10:51] *bugs [10:52] LaserJock: it's just funny that they list australia as a region, but the mirrors are in europe === CarlFK [n=carl@c-24-13-53-221.hsd1.il.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu [10:52] ajmitch: It seems to go through the US for me, but there's very little reverse-DNS available. [10:52] Fujitsu: yep [10:52] it really goes to the US? [10:52] That sounds like it'd be /really/ fast. [10:52] LaserJock: Yup. === TheMuso checks the route for him. [10:53] whereas it's about 3ms from the work server to ftp.citylink.co.nz [10:53] whats everyone using? Tracepath [10:53] mtr [10:53] mtr [10:53] I get a little over 200ms. [10:54] Fujitsu: You on optus atm? Westnet goes through optus currently, so I'd say our routes would be very similar. [10:55] TheMuso: I find Westnet does yield similar routes, yes. === Fujitsu files the "Australia isn't in Europe" bug. [10:55] haha [10:56] it'd be funny if they put everthing in Europe [10:56] a little geo-biased === _MMA_ [n=mma@cpe-071-070-203-016.nc.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu-motu === janm [n=jmalonzo@29.182.233.220.exetel.com.au] has joined #ubuntu-motu === jussi01 [n=jussi@dyn3-82-128-188-210.psoas.suomi.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu === wiseKid [n=Ryan@c-24-10-27-136.hsd1.ca.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu [11:17] My ubuntu-website bug got its importance and assignee set within 4 minutes...

[11:32] I look at it regularly [11:33] We gained 3000 open bugs in February :-/ [11:33] while I watch http://intihuatani.usc.edu/cloud/video.htm === GNUro [i=GNUro@gateway/tor/x-5a14906866788073] has left #ubuntu-motu ["(gdb)] [11:33] Oops, 2000. [11:34] I wish I joined this channel earlier. [11:34] honestlyenough: What's so good about it? [11:34] You guys would have saved me a couple days of reading through the rather dry Debian New Package Maintainer's Guide. [11:35] Fujitsu: The Ubuntu Packaging Guide is so much more helpful for me. [11:35] What do people think about UTF-8 compatibility bugs? Wishlist? Low? Otherwise? [11:35] honestlyenough: That's great to hear :) [11:36] So, Burgwork: Fix bugs! === Fujitsu cracks a whip. === Adri2000 takes care of libsdl-sound1.2 (last email on -motu) [11:38] Fujitsu: I asked a lot of these questions on the Debian channels and people were usually pretty responsive to them, but all of them could have been answered by this guide. [11:38] Fujitsu: Oh, well. Lesson learned :) [11:39] I suppose I should take some grammar lessons ;) [11:40] Adri2000: I hadn't even seen that email until you mentioned it! You're quick. [11:40] : === TheMuso attacks bugs with patches, as noted on the TODO. [11:42] Particularly those that are several pages in. [11:46] If a package installs something to /usr/sbin, lintian -i mypackage-version-arch.deb claims I need a man page to conform to the Policy regulations. However, I've seen many packages where there is a mypackage and a separate mypackage-docs. If I've only got one manpage, am I really supposed to break this package up into two separate Ubuntu packages? [11:47] honestlyenough: Just put the manpages in mypackage. === zul [n=chuck@ubuntu/member/zul] has joined #ubuntu-motu [11:47] hey [11:47] Hi zul. === lifeless [n=robertc@ppp245-86.static.internode.on.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu [12:01] launchpad doesn't distinguish between 'confirmed' meaning 'needs somebody to investigate/fix' and 'confirmed' meaning 'has been fixed, waiting for the patch to be committed'. Is that right? [12:01] danohuiginn: `In progress' is generally used for the latter of those. [12:02] There is also a feature to search for bugs which have patches attached. [12:02] OK, Fujitsu [12:02] but not one to search for bugs *without* patches attached as far as I can see [12:02] which is what I'd want, as I'm after things to fix, not things to commit [12:03] danohuiginn: Have you looked at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/TODO? [12:03] danohuiginn: Indeed, that feature seems to be absent. [12:03] Fujitsu: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/HowToFix says set bugs to 'confirmed' when you have a patch [12:05] thanks, TheMuso (also thanks for that upload the other day). I'll have a look through there === sistpoty [n=sistpoty@ubuntu/member/sistpoty] has joined #ubuntu-motu [12:05] hi folks [12:05] Hey sistpoty. [12:05] Hey sistpoty. [12:05] hi Fujitsu and TheMuso [12:05] danohuiginn: You're welcome. [12:07] _MMA_: What is your thoughts on packages such as ubuntustudio-sounds regarding the maintainer field? As you may know, either the maintainer field has to have someone who has an @ubuntu.com address, or it must have MOTU as maintainer. [12:08] Before this goes into the archive, this needs to be changed. [12:09] <_MMA_> TheMuso: We can mark 'em as tsmithe or joejaxx. [12:10] hooray, trigger was mentioned as favorite game on the planet :) [12:10] <_MMA_> TheMuso: I havnt pursued my membership yet.
