[12:15] <mr_pouit> mrpouit@ubuntu.com
[12:17] <bddebian> Laer gang
[12:18] <ajmitch> k, fixed that, logout/login
[12:21] <mr_pouit> ajmitch: it works, thanks a lot :)
[12:24] <boss-bcp> What distribution should be listed in the debian/changelog file?
[12:24] <ajmitch> feisty
[12:25] <boss-bcp> Even for revu packages?
[12:25] <ajmitch> yes
[12:25] <ajmitch> they'll need updated for the next release, but that's a small change
[12:27] <boss-bcp> ajmitch: Well, when I have that in the changelog I keep getting this error message.
[12:27] <boss-bcp> E: libpam-cups_0.1-0ubuntu1_source.changes: bad-distribution-in-changes-file feisty
[12:27] <boss-bcp> And I keep getting rejected from revu because of it.
[12:27] <ajmitch> ignore that
[12:27] <boss-bcp> If I put unstable in the place of feisty, then it gets rejected because the system can't figure out where to put it.
[12:28] <boss-bcp> Okay, I'll try again.
[12:28] <ajmitch> and you won't get rejected from revu due to having feisty in the changelog
[12:28] <ajmitch> nor should it be rejected for having unstable, fwiw
[12:31] <TheMuso> Hey MOTUs.
[12:31] <mr_pouit> hi TheMuso 
[12:35] <LaserJock> hi TheMuso 
[12:36] <boss-bcp> ajmitch: I just got denied for feisty again.
[12:36] <boss-bcp> Signer has no upload rights at all to this distribution.
[12:37] <LaserJock> are you sure you are using the same email address for gpg/changelog/etc
[12:37] <boss-bcp> Positive.
[12:39] <ajmitch> boss-bcp: you didn't do 'dput revu...'
[12:39] <ajmitch> that error only comes from the main ubuntu archive
[12:40] <boss-bcp> Even if I have default_host_main = revu ?
[12:41] <ajmitch> it's best to make sure
[12:41] <boss-bcp> Okay, I'll dput revu then.
[01:03] <boss-bcp> Cool, both packages were uploaded.

[01:59] <wick2o> hello
[02:00] <wick2o> I have a fully automated preseed install, but at the end after a reboot i need to apt-get update...so i had this idea of logging the apt-get update and replacing all of the files on the cd with the new version
[02:01] <wick2o> (the previously remasted cd using the wiki installcdcustom...works great btw)
[02:01] <wick2o> now, this new cd...durning the install it cant find my nics, it cant mount the the harddrive for partitioning
[02:01] <wick2o> where did i go wrong? and im sorry if this is the wrong channel for this, but #ubuntu doesnt seem to get this advanced
[02:02] <TheMuso> An upstream version freeze exception request needs to be filed, as outlined at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FreezeExceptionProcess for universe.
[02:02] <TheMuso> bah
[02:02] <TheMuso> missed him
[02:03] <wick2o> ive looked all over the wiki for what im tring to do and am having no lucky

[02:45] <RAOF> Although, it looks like there's some upstream patches which fix the "Use non-public DBUS API" problems
[02:45] <Hobbsee> RAOF: never.  you were just the last person to touch it, and it's severely broken
[02:45] <Hobbsee> yeah
[02:46] <RAOF> Only to expose a mozilla library problem :)
[02:46] <Hobbsee> seems that they may or may nto work, though

[02:46] <Hobbsee> RAOF: ah well.  you can fix it ;)
[02:46] <RAOF> I just might.
[02:47] <RAOF> I think I'll fix compiz-extra first, though.  That just needs a rebuild for the ABI breakage.

[07:49] <vil> this particular problem happens on intrepid when I try to build eclipse in my home dir.

[07:51] <imbrandon> RAOF, yes

[07:51] <imbrandon> and ubuntuwire is the community build network

[08:02] <TheMuso> It rocks.

[08:02] <TheMuso> LaserJock: Not yet afaik
[08:02] <TheMuso> I'm hangin out for that as well.
[08:02] <RAOF> I'm willing to provide a shell acount on my AMD64 box for (some) people, if you want.
[08:02] <RAOF> But it's not really suitable for all the MOTU :)

[08:07] <welshbyte> good morning
[08:09] <Jucato> hm... is Dia (it's in universe right? :D) supposed to have an entry in the (KDE) menu when installed?
[08:10] <TheMuso> Jucato: Use the apt-cache madison command to find out.
[08:11] <Jucato> hm... 2 entries: feisty/universe Packages and feisty/main Sources
[08:12] <Jucato> does that mean that the binary package for it is in universe, and it's source package is in main?
[08:13] <LaserJock> well, dia-gnome is in main
[08:13] <LaserJock> dia, the .deb is in Universe
[08:14] <Jucato> ah. but I did "apt-cache madison dia" only..hm.. anyway... it doesn't seem to have a menu entry when I installed it... :/
[08:20] <LaserJock> Jucato: would it be because it's a Gnome app?
[08:21] <Jucato> hm.. other GNOME/GTK apps show in the K Menu
[08:22] <LaserJock> Jucato: what does the .desktop say?
[08:22] <Jucato> let me check
[08:23] <Jucato> er.. /usr/share/applications right?

[11:20] <shawarma> Was compiz-extra the eeeevil one we're considering removing?
[12:00] <bedo__> Hello all. I have done a package existing in debian for ubuntu. Where I have to send the debdiff?
[12:41] <BugMaN> hi

[12:42] <BugMaN> someone should control my debdiff, its my first debdiff i made, thanks
[12:42] <proppy> hi !
[12:42] <proppy> ScottK: ping
[12:43] <proppy> ScottK: i don't understand why you've rejected bug 79409
[12:43] <ubotu> Malone bug 79409 in pygame "[6.10 only]  pygame doesn't install in python2.5 on edgy" [Undecided,Rejected]  https://launchpad.net/bugs/79409
[12:44] <ogra> proppy, there is no python 2.5 in edgy ...
[12:44] <proppy> python2.5 exists on edgy
[12:44] <proppy> http://packages.ubuntu.com/edgy/python/python2.5
[12:45] <ogra> oh, right ... 
[12:46] <BugMaN> a question: i attach a debdiff to #49671 (this bug is confirmed) i must change the status to "in progress"?
[12:46] <ogra> are you the asignee ? 
[12:46] <BugMaN> ogra: no
[12:46] <ogra> leave that to the asignee if not
[12:46] <proppy> ogra: should paste this link as a comment to the bug ?
[12:46] <BugMaN> ogra:  assigned to nobody
[12:47] <ogra> proppy, well, not sure that validates an SRU, but you should repoen it for now and write a comment
[12:47] <BugMaN> ogra: i must assign to someone to specify that there is an debdiff to control?
[12:48] <ogra> i can imagine the issue isnt important enough to risk an upload to a stable release, but current the rejection reason is surely wrong
[12:48] <proppy> ogra: all edgy fixes go thru a SRU ?
[12:48] <proppy> ogra: (stable release update?)
[12:48] <ogra> edgy is stable ... so it would be a stable release update, yes
[12:48] <proppy> ogra: ok thanks for the hint
[12:48] <ogra> unless the bug causes dataloss or security problems
[12:49] <ogra> if its fixed in feisty you could try to convince the backports team ;)
[12:50] <proppy> its fixed in festy :)
[12:50] <proppy> oh ok
[12:50] <proppy> so all update to edgy go through sru, or thru backport if already fixed in edgy+1
[12:51] <proppy> is this only for "main" packages or for "universe" packages too
[12:56] <pochu> proppy: for all
[01:03] <siretart> proppy: we (normally) require a fix to be applied to feisty for SRUs as well
[01:07] <proppy> siretart: ok nice to hear :)
[01:08] <proppy> happy to understand how it works
[01:53] <ScottK> proppy - I'm looking.
[01:54] <jussi01> ScottK, did you notice my fixes...
[01:54] <ScottK> jussi01: No.  I just sat down at the computer.
[01:54] <jussi01> hehe...ok then :D
[01:57] <jussi01> ScottK, I think i managed to iron out everything you mentioned :D
[02:22] <danohuiginn> bug 71210 vanishes if I rebuild the package, even in pbuilder. Will simply rebuilding the official package sort it out?
[02:22] <ubotu> Malone bug 71210 in urlgrabber "does not provide python2.4 modules" [Undecided,Confirmed]  https://launchpad.net/bugs/71210
[02:22] <danohuiginn> And if so, how do I make that happen?
[02:24] <ScottK> jussi01: Are you making the source tarball yourself or downloading it from the site?
[02:24] <ScottK> Your debian dir should not be part of the source tarball.
[02:25] <shawarma> Hm.
[02:25] <shawarma> The ubuntu-devel mailing list charter says it's moderator for non-developers.. Can someone define developers?
[02:26] <shawarma> member of ubuntu-{,core}-dev? 
[02:29] <DarkSun88> Hi all
[02:29] <shawarma> Greetings.
[02:33] <geser> shawarma: yes
[02:34] <shawarma> geser: I thought so. The delay in mailman for my post to u-d was just a little longer than I had anticipated.
[02:34] <geser> danohuiginn: a new version needs to be uploaded (only adding a changelog entry)
[02:36] <danohuiginn> geser: thanks. So I should make a debdiff, just editing the changelog? I'll do that.
[02:36] <geser> yes, the debdiff should only contain the change in the changelog
[02:36] <geser> the new version would be 2.9.9-1build2
[02:37] <danohuiginn> OK
[02:41] <fernando> hey all
[02:58] <danohuiginn> right. I've attached a debdiff to bug 71210. If anyone wants to sponsor it, that'd be great ;)

[03:02] <danohuiginn> cool. thanks, geser
[03:02] <wick2o> hello
[03:07] <danohuiginn> hi, wick2o
[03:12] <geser> danohuiginn: changing the maintainer is only need for -XubuntuY as this is only a rebuild without ubuntu changes (therefore -XbuildY) the maintainer doesn't need to be changed
[03:12] <geser> I will undo it before uploading
[03:13] <danohuiginn> ah, that makes sense. cheers
[03:14] <jussi01> ScottK, sorry to disappear on you like that. Fixed that one  :D thanks
[03:25] <ScottK> jussi01: See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebianMaintainerField again (look under design) for how to set maintainer in Ubuntu (this applies even if your package isn't in Debian).  Also see http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2006/03/msg00023.html for info on debian/copyright.  At the very least you need to add the GPL header to your copyright file.
[03:27] <jussi01> ScottK, thanks, Im having another read of that... :D

[03:59] <vil> hi, I would like to know anyones opinion about packaging ie4linux
[03:59] <vil> http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/page/Main_Page
[04:00] <vil> and http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/page/Legal_notices
[04:00] <vil> does it make any sense to put it in universe eventually?
[04:02] <geser> danohuiginn: have you checked that urlgrabber works with python2.4 after the rebuild?
[04:03] <geser> the build deb has Depends: python2.5, python-support (>= 0.2)
[04:04] <ScottK> vil: I'd say it looks potentially useful, but I think it would have to go in multiverse because it depends on proprietary software that's not distributable.
[04:06] <danohuiginn> geser: yes, I did check that
[04:06] <danohuiginn> but I'll have another look and make sure
[04:08] <danohuiginn> it's possible I messed up with pbuilder somehow
[04:13] <vil> ScottK, yes, now I see that, very much the same like flashplugin-nonfree 
[04:13] <crimsun> oh geez, another xorg-server<->mesa recompile dance
[04:13] <vil> I was just currious if the legal notes mentioned above would not prohibit this package to enter even multiverse
[04:13] <geser> danohuiginn: I only wondered if it works with python2.4 when it depends on python2.5
[04:14] <geser> Hi bddebian
[04:14] <danohuiginn> geser:  the python dependency is on ${python:Depends},not 2.5 specifically
[04:14] <ScottK> vil: I don't know about that, but the code itself is free, it's the dependency that's the problem.  Can a multiverse application depend on stuff pulled from outside sources?  I don't know.
[04:15] <bddebian> Heya gang
[04:15] <bddebian> Hi geser
[04:15] <ScottK> Hi bddebian.
[04:15] <bddebian> Heya ScottK
[04:15] <geser> danohuiginn: yes, but the generated deb depends on python2.5
[04:15] <crimsun> ScottK: via Depends? It can't Depend(s) on something not in the Ubuntu repo.
[04:15] <Jucato> hi bddebian
[04:15] <Jucato> :P
[04:15] <geser> bddebian: destar is done. What's next? :)
[04:16] <bddebian> Nice, thx
[04:17] <ScottK> crimsun: Understand not via depends, but I'm have no idea if there's another way to deal with that kind of problem (the program in question is essentially an installer for IE and you need to have a valid Windows license to install it legally).
[04:17] <ScottK> I'm/I've
[04:18] <dholbach> jussi01: i checked the packaging
[04:19] <vil> crimsun, it is similar to current flashplugin-nonfree
[04:21] <vil> lots of people are forced to use IE. This could potentially take couple more people to Ubuntu, maybe...
[04:21] <dholbach> jussi01: gsopcast says "sp-sc: No such file or directory" whatever I click in it
[04:27] <norsetto> any reason why an "install -d /tmp/{a,b,c{c1,c2}}"works as a command, and doesn't in a Makefile!? (creates /tmp/{a,b,c and in it 2 subs c1 and c2)
[04:29] <norsetto> anyone? Please? Pretty please? Pretty pretty please?
[04:31] <crimsun> norsetto: what shell?
[04:31] <norsetto> I've stumbled on this working for bug #98892. I can patch the package expanding the install but yet, why isn't working .......

[04:31] <crimsun> bashism, then.
[04:31] <norsetto> sorry, bash
[04:31] <danohuiginn> geser: I've double-checked and it works with python2.4
[04:32] <danohuiginn> that is on a machine with 2.5 installed, but it does mean other programs which explicitly use python2.4 can use it
[04:33] <norsetto> crimsun: bashism?
[04:33] <crimsun> norsetto: packages aren't built using bash as the default shell.
[04:34] <norsetto> ok
[04:34] <crimsun> and {} can't be used as globbing[-like]  chars in dash.
[04:34] <norsetto> and, is it possible to tell the builder to use bash?
[04:34] <crimsun> fix the bashism instead.
[04:34] <norsetto> okki dokki, will do .....
[04:35] <norsetto> thanks!
[04:35] <crimsun> np
[04:36] <norsetto> norsetto hugs crimsun (manly....)
[04:37] <bddebian> heh
[04:37] <wick2o> anyone here remaster an install cd?
[04:37] <crimsun> wick2o: if you mean an alt, joejaxx (of fluxbuntu, or formerly) has.
[04:38] <wick2o> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallCDCustomization
[04:38] <wick2o> well i used this guide and got a really nice preseeded install cd from 6.06 LTS 
[04:38] <wick2o> and the install works and is great...i do the install and then run apt-get -y dist-upgrade
[04:38] <Jucato> excuse me, quick question. when I run dch -i, it opens up the debian/changelog file for me to edit. but it uses <jucato@kubuntu> instead of @kubuntu.com. is that normal?
[04:38] <wick2o> however my new goal is to get a cd i no longer have to apt-get -y dist-upgrade
[04:39] <wick2o> so i did a freash install from my newly working cd
[04:39] <wick2o> did an apt-get -ys dist-upgrade > results
[04:39] <wick2o> i went down the results and manually downloaded all of the new versions of the debs from archive using wget
[04:39] <wick2o> and replaced the in my cd pool
[04:40] <crimsun> Jucato: is $DEBEMAIL set?
[04:40] <geser> danohuiginn: ok, uploaded
[04:40] <wick2o> then made a new image and burned it and tried to install from it
[04:40] <Jucato> hm.. I thought I set it before :(
[04:40] <wick2o> now debconf cant find my nic, and wont partition/mount my harddrive
[04:40] <danohuiginn> thanks, geser
[04:41] <wick2o> perhaps there is a better way to update the packages on the cd? so i can make my own 6.06.2 or something
[04:41] <Jucato> gnomefreak: thanks :)
[04:41] <gnomefreak> ?
[04:41] <gnomefreak> yw?
[04:41] <Jucato> er sorry. wrong person lol
[04:41] <gnomefreak> lol
[04:41] <Jucato> crimsun: that thanks was for you :D
[04:41] <gnomefreak> think  he meant crimsun 
[04:41] <crimsun> it's ok, john may have that thanks.
[04:41] <gnomefreak> :)
[04:42] <bddebian> Why, debdiff is easy
[04:42] <gnomefreak> Jucato: souldnt be too hard
[04:42] <gnomefreak> shouldnt*
[04:42] <bddebian> Easier than diff -urN /foo /bar ,etc, etc :)
[04:43] <Jucato> yeah, the part about dch -i, debuild -S, etc... :(
[04:43] <Jucato> heh I'm not even sure what to write in debian/changelog! :P
[04:44] <gnomefreak> Jucato: depends what you did
[04:44] <wick2o> well ive sent joejaxx a message, lets see if he gets back to me
[04:45] <Jucato> gnomefreak: basically I added a .diff that sort of updates umbrello from 1.5.6 to 1.5.61
[04:45] <gnomefreak> .diff or patch?
[04:45] <Jucato> um... :/
[04:46] <gnomefreak> if its new upstream version than that should be enough 
[04:46] <gnomefreak> Jucato: patches look like diffs
[04:46] <gnomefreak> in a way
[04:46] <Jucato> the output of diff -ruN old_umbrello new_umbrello
[04:46] <gnomefreak> thats a diff
[04:47] <gnomefreak> lol
[04:47] <Jucato> oooh I didn't notice Riddell wasn't here :/
[04:47] <gnomefreak> urn == vaseish tpe bottle run == get out of way

[04:48] <bddebian> heh
[04:48] <wick2o> grrr man im frustrated
[04:52] <wick2o> why does something so simple turn out like this
[04:59] <jussi01> dholbach, Im sorry, I totally forgot about that... I need to write a small script to copy that file over. I will let you know when its ready. My apologies
[05:00] <dholbach> jussi01: i'm not sure I understand what you mean
[05:00] <dholbach> jussi01: you did good work on that
[05:00] <dholbach> jussi01: drop me a mail when I should look again
[05:00] <dholbach> brb
[05:04] <Jucato> Excuse me, what does this error mean? "dpkg-source: error: Version number suggests Ubuntu changes, but Maintainer: does not have Ubuntu address"
[05:04] <Jucato> when I run debuild -S
[05:06] <Jucato> oh... I used @kubuntu.org... do I need @ubuntu.com for that?
[05:07] <geser> you need to change the maintainer to an address containing ubuntu (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebianMaintainerField)
[05:08] <Jucato> aah yeah... reading up on that now... :/
[05:08] <Jucato> thanks

[05:19] <sacater> hey guys, i got cut off last night, sorry
[05:20] <sacater> anyway i was asking, should i get the feisty BETA, or wait for the official release..... :|
[05:22] <sacater> happened again....
[05:23] <bddebian> sacater: It depends on what you are trying to do or want
[05:23] <bddebian> If you want a more stable system then no
[05:23] <bddebian> If you don't mind occasional breakage and want the latest "stuff" then yes
[05:25] <sacater> bddebian: thanks, im going to wait like a patient sacater
[05:25] <Jucato> is it ok to be getting NMU-related errors when doing lintian -i ?
[05:25] <bddebian> Yes
[05:26] <Jucato> bddebian: that sweet yes was for me?
[05:26] <bddebian> Yep
[05:26] <Jucato> yay!
[05:26] <Jucato> successfully done that stage... now to build :/
[05:26] <bddebian> :)
[05:27] <Jucato> which kind of debdiff is preferred? source or binary?
[05:28] <bddebian> debdiff old.dsc new.dsc
[05:28] <superm1> Jucato, shouldn't they come out the same if you run them in the source directory or on the dsc/orig.tar.gz/diff.tar.gz ?
[05:29] <somerville32> bddebian, my friend, long time no chat.
[05:29] <bddebian> Heya somerville32
[05:30] <Jucato> superm1: not really sure... as I'm just reading from the packaging guide...
[05:30] <bddebian> somerville32: Sorry to hear that :-(
[05:30] <somerville32> Did you miss me?
[05:30] <bddebian> Of course :-)
[05:30] <superm1> Jucato, ah.  well its easier to just do it on the dsc's, since you will have both whereas if you did it on source directories, you'd have to re-extract the source again for the orig
[05:31] <Jucato> superm1: ah ok... sorry I confused .dsc for source. I meant to ask, which was preferred debdiffs, from .dsc or from .deb :)
[05:31] <Jucato> "You can debdiff the source package by: debdiff <oldpackage>.dsc <newpackage>.dsc > package.debdiff"
[05:31] <Jucato> (from the guide)
[05:32] <superm1> ah
[05:32] <superm1> dsc's then
[05:32] <Jucato> thanks! :)
[05:34] <bddebian> What, you didn't believe me?
[05:34] <Jucato> bddebian: oh no. I didn't see it :)
[05:34] <Jucato> my brain skipped a line :/
[05:35] <bddebian> :-)
[05:35] <Jucato> running pbuilder build first though :)
[05:35] <Jucato> the commands are easy... but knowing what to put and where is the dizzying part

[07:17] <jussi01> Hello again motu's. I need a little help. I have packaged a program - all went fairly ok, however I need to make it copy a certain file into /usr/local/bin . how do I do this?
[07:17] <Jucato> g'day! how do I (safely) test a package that I've just finished building (pbuilder)?
[07:17] <sacater> jussi01: hmm, several things need to be do
[07:19] <micahcowan> Jucato, I thought the point of pbuilder /was/ to test?
[07:19] <Jucato> micahcowan: I mean, to actually install it... just sudo dpkg -i?
[07:20] <micahcowan> I think that should do
[07:20] <Jucato> ok thanks
[07:20] <jussi01> hmmm, i just thought of something, the package I made is a "front end" and the file I need to copy is the "back end" or engine. 
[07:21] <sacater> jussi01: could it be 2 packages, front end, and engine
[07:22] <sacater> with the engine as a dependency of the front-end
[07:22] <jussi01> sacater, how do I then go about making the engine package out of 1 file?
[07:22] <sacater> ?
[07:22] <sacater> i dunno :P
[07:22] <sacater> just a suggestion
[07:23] <jussi01> yeah a good one...
[07:23] <jussi01> lol
[07:23] <sacater> :P
[07:24] <jussi01> Jucato, you could also use a chroot environment
[07:24] <micahcowan> jussi01, right, but that's what pbuilder does, no?
[07:24] <Jucato> I installed it directly anyway :)
[07:24] <Jucato> thanks
[07:24] <micahcowan> (He mentioned he used pbuilder to create the package)
[07:25] <jussi01> micahcowan, pbuilder builds he package, the chroot env allows you to install it....
[07:26] <micahcowan> From the manpage: pbuilder build: "Builds the package specified by .dsc-file in the chroot environment created using the base.tgz"...
[07:26] <micahcowan> pbuilder makes no sense /without/ a chroot env.
[07:26] <micahcowan> dpkg-buildpackage is what builds the package.
[07:28] <ScottK> micahcowan: As I understand it (and this may well be wrong as I'm no expert), pbuilder builds a fresh build environment in a chroot, builds the package, and then the chroot goes away.  If you want to install the package, I think you need to make a regular chroot to install it into.

[08:05] <sacater> guys.. problem with my upgrading to the BETA, i got 'an unresolvable error occured while calculating the upgrade'

[08:08] <sacater> ok
[08:08] <phaidros> how to learn packaging? 
[08:08] <phaidros> hehe, lol
[08:09] <phaidros> or better: technically and organizatorically (who where what?)

[08:09] <phaidros> jussi01: thx
[08:22] <sacater> can someone have a brief look at this for me :(

[08:22] <ubotu> Malone bug 99108 in update-manager "attempt to upgrade from edgy with xfce on top, FAILS" [Undecided,Unconfirmed]  
[08:24] <pochu> sacater: did you compiled yourself xcfe, or installed from repos?
[08:26] <sacater> pochu: compiled myself, why?
[08:26] <pochu> sacater: xfce compiled from source
[08:26] <sacater> yes
[08:26] <pochu> sacater: did you "make && make install" it?
[08:26] <sacater> 4
[08:26] <sacater> i did the following
[08:26] <pochu> of just make?
[08:26] <sacater> wekk
[08:26] <sacater> well*
[08:27] <pochu> I think that's the reason of your issue
[08:27] <sacater> the package of xfce came with loads of sub-packages like libaries
[08:27] <sacater> i did ./configure
[08:27] <sacater> make
[08:27] <sacater> sudo make install
[08:27] <sacater> to all of the packages that came with xfce
[08:27] <pochu> I bet that's the reason
[08:28] <sacater> well what should i do?
[08:29] <pochu> not sure :)
[08:29] <sacater> pochu: awww...
[08:29] <sacater> pochu: may it work when the official release comes out
[08:29] <pochu> sacater: I think not
[08:30] <sacater> pochu: .......
[08:30] <sacater> pochu: what about if i get an alternate install CD
[08:30] <pochu> sacater: you can backup your /home (if you don't have it in a separate partition) and reinstall / :)
[08:30] <sacater> pochu: ive gone through so much with this machine....... i could never erase my edgy and put on feisty BETA
[08:31] <sacater> i would rather upgrade
[08:31] <sacater> much rather
[08:33] <Burgwork> am I an idiot or is the current desktop cd oversized?
[08:34] <sacater> Burgwork: youre a complete fruitloop :P
[08:35] <pochu> Burgwork: oversized by 2 MB
[08:35] <pochu> try tomorrow's image :)
[08:36] <sacater> pochu: this is why i need a second PC
[08:36] <sacater> pochu: please help...
[08:37] <pochu> sacater: I'm afraid that's everything I can do
[08:37] <sacater> pochu: what would be my best bet, or thing to do....
[08:38] <pochu> sacater: you can also manually change /etc/apt/sources.list, and go with an update && dist-upgrade, but I think that's a bad idea
[08:38] <sacater> pochu: explain....
[08:38] <pochu> sacater: what surely will work is to backup /home (or create another partition and copy it there) and reinstall latest Feisty
[08:39] <sacater> pochu: but i will have to re-install EVERYTHING...
[08:39] <pochu> sacater: yeah :(
[08:39] <sacater> ooooooooooooh i may be VERY lucky
[08:39] <sacater>           minimec : sacater: By the way. Lokking at the logs of your bug... phaidros was right. Dependency problems

[08:59] <sacater> oh well too late :P
[08:59] <sacater> yep it pisses me off

[08:59] <sacater> apt.log
[08:59] <LaserJock> heh, well get used to to :-)
[08:59] <sacater> LaserJock: ??
[08:59] <LaserJock> I think myspell was replaces or something lately
[08:59] <sacater> LaserJock: oooooooh
[08:59] <LaserJock> sacater: that's what happens when you run development releases
[09:00] <LaserJock> sometimes things break a little
[09:00] <sacater> LaserJock: what development release?
[09:00] <sacater> LaserJock: how do i fix the break
[09:00] <LaserJock> sacater: feisty is the development release
[09:01] <sacater> LaserJock: im using edgy...
[09:01] <sacater> trying to GET feisty
[09:01] <LaserJock> ah, well that's even worse ;-)
[09:01] <sacater> LaserJock: precisely my point :P
[09:02] <sacater> aw well lets do these huggy buggues
[09:02] <sacater> buggies
[09:02] <pochu> Adri2000: yeah, but go with it
[09:02] <Adri2000> ok
[09:02] <bddebian> sacater: Did you do an "apt-get -f install" ?
[09:02] <pochu> Adri2000: it hasn't been approved since it seems not to fix any ubuntu bugs (amule bugs)
[09:02] <sacater> bersace: erm no, all im trying to do is update-manager -d
[09:03] <sacater> :D
[09:03] <bersace> ?
[09:03] <Adri2000> pochu: filezilla will also use wx 2.8 (soon), but I don't know if it will help fixing any bug
[09:03] <LaserJock> sacater: usually a combination of dist upgrades and dpkg --configure -a will help
[09:03] <sacater> i just did 'fix broken packages in synaptic, would that help'?
[09:03] <LaserJock> hopefully :-)
[09:03] <LaserJock> hi bddebian 
[09:04] <bddebian> Heya LaserJock
[09:04] <sacater> LaserJock: sacater@neo:~$ sudo dpkg --configure -a
[09:04] <sacater> sacater@neo:~$ 
[09:04] <pochu> Adri2000: it won't hurt, I hope :)
[09:04] <LaserJock> sacater: so is it fixed now?
[09:05] <pochu> Adri2000: I've heard there is a 2.8.4, is it right?
[09:05] <sacater> LaserJock: no idea, let me try update-manager -d
[09:05] <LaserJock> hmm, well I'm not sure if that's going to help
[09:05] <LaserJock> if it hasn't installed anything yet
[09:05] <sacater> well i just tried to fix...
[09:06] <sacater> maybe somethings better :D
[09:06] <bddebian> Just go to a freakin' command line and do an "apt-get update" && "apt-get dist-upgrade" and when that breaks do "apt-get -f install" :-)
[09:06] <Adri2000> pochu: no idea :p
[09:06] <pochu> hehe
[09:06] <sacater> bddebian: one at a time
[09:06] <pochu> Adri2000: so what are you going to upload?
[09:06] <pochu> Adri2000: the uvf isn't approved

[09:07] <pochu> Adri2000: ah, cool
[09:11] <sacater> LaserJock: new!
[09:11] <sacater> LaserJock: Can't guess meta-package
[09:11] <sacater> Your system does not contain a ubuntu-desktop, kubuntu-desktop, xubuntu-desktop or edubuntu-desktop package and it was not possible to detect which version of Ubuntu you are running. Please install one of the packages above first using synaptic or apt-get before proceeding.
[09:13] <sacater> LaserJock: problem is, when i go to install ubuntu-desktop, it trys to install gnome, and when i go for xfce, it trys to install xfce4, even though i compiled it from source
[09:13] <sacater> help me...
[09:14] <LaserJock> well, if you want to use update-manager you need one of those -desktop
[09:15] <sacater> erm big problem, software updates just popped up and wants me to install 1102 updates, but they are packages i already have...
[09:15] <siretart> hrmpf. somebody please fix gmane
[09:16] <welshbyte> siretart: +1, i haven't been able to check any lists today :(
[09:17] <LaserJock> sacater: just use apt-get dist-upgrade
[09:18] <geser> sacater: dpkg/apt knows only about software which was installed as debs and not manually from source
[09:18] <sacater> LaserJock: I DO, but nothing comes up
[09:19] <LaserJock> sacater: make sure you have your sources.list right
[09:19] <sacater> sacater@neo:~$ sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

[09:20] <bddebian> s/edgy/fesity/
[09:20] <bddebian> Err feisty even
[09:24] <sacater> na its not that
[09:24] <sacater> laserjock was right, i need to add an ubuntu-desktop package
[09:24] <sacater> i removed it by accident when i compiled xfce somehow
[09:26] <jussi01> what does it mean when a script exits with error status 1?
[09:26] <sacater> jussi01: thanks for the compassion, its DEFINATLY xubuntu next time, not xfce on ubuntu
[09:27] <geser> jussi01: usually it's an error but it depends on the script why it failed
[09:28] <jussi01> geser, its weird, its a postinst script for a deb. it works when you just run the script in the source package...
[09:28] <jussi01> i can paste bin it, its a very simple one
[09:29] <jussi01> geser, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13000/
[09:30] <geser> it's a postinst for a deb? a deb has not to touch /usr/local
[09:31] <jussi01> oh...
[09:31] <geser> the problem with the script is probably when dpkg runs it ../sp-rc is the wrong dir
[09:32] <jussi01> geser, this deb is a front end for a single file program, that needs to be in usr/local/bin. can you suggest a good way to get it there?
[09:33] <bddebian> sacater: ubuntu-desktop is a meta package for gnome, do you want gnome?
[09:33] <bddebian> Well gnome++ but..
[09:34] <jussi01> geser, this is the instruction when you are installing from source: For sp-sc, unzip the tar ball and then move sp-sc to where the variable PATH can find, such as /usr/local/bin 
[09:34] <geser> As mandated by the FHS, packages must not place any files in /usr/local, [...]  (http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-opersys.html#s9.1.2)
[09:35] <jussi01> ok...
[09:35] <geser> jussi01: if you create a package for it you can install it in /usr/bin
[09:36] <sacater> bddebian: but if i get xubuntu-desktop, it will install xfce4, which i have already compiled myself
[09:36] <jussi01> geser, excellent. how does one go about a package with only a single file though..
[09:36] <sacater> bddebian: best to have both, rather than 2 xfce, one debian and one source
[09:37] <geser> jussi01: do you want to include the package in Ubuntu?
[09:37] <jussi01> geser, yes
[09:38] <geser> can it be included in some other package?
[09:39] <jussi01> geser, what do you mean??
[09:39] <geser> because each new package increases the size of the Packages.gz file (which you need to download on apt-get update)
[09:39] <geser> it's not very liked to create a package for a single file (because of the overhead)
[09:39] <sacater> bddebian: no problems with gnome and xfce, it all seems to run fine
[09:39] <jussi01> geser, yeah, i was hoping to include it all in the single package
[09:40] <geser> sacater: any reason to use a self-compiled xfce and not the debs?
[09:40] <sacater> geser: im one of those people who like to compile sometimes....
[09:41] <sacater> geser: plus i like the pretty colours that i get when i do make && make install
[09:41] <sacater> :D
[09:41] <sacater> geser: not really, the reason was i wanted to use the xfce4 beta, but wasnt available in the universe yet
[09:41] <sacater> so i compiled
[09:41] <geser> sacater: apt-cache show equivs
[09:41] <sacater> like i do many apps
[09:42] <geser> sacater: why not create (update the existing packages) you own debs (for your own use)?
[09:42] <sacater> geser: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/13002/
[09:43] <sacater> geser: good point,, 
[09:43] <sacater> geser: oh i know
[09:43] <sacater> i didnt know how at the time
[09:43] <sacater> i wasnt even dev in training
[09:44] <jussi01> geser, I just need to have this one file copied to /usr/bin. is there a "good" (conventional) way to do that?
[09:44] <geser> sacater: with equivs you can create pseudo-packages which are only there to satisfy deps
[09:44] <sacater> geser: im going to upgrade... explain when i get back please
[09:45] <geser> jussi01: not really, you can do all you need to install it in debian/tmp (from where the deb gets build)
[09:46] <geser> jussi01: simply use cp in debian/rules and copy it to debian/tmp/usr/bin (don't forget to create the dir)
[09:47] <jussi01> geser, ahhh fantastic thank you...
[09:48] <geser> postinst isn't used to install the files, it's used to do things you can't do beforehand (like creating a config file, start a daemon, call ldconfig (or other update scripts), etc.)
[09:48] <jussi01> geser, one final question, where in the rules file?
[09:49] <geser> it's a Makefile in the debian directory named rules
[09:50] <jussi01> geser, yeah, I was wondering where in that file should I put the cp command.. its a pretty big file...
[09:50] <geser> jussi01: were you already pointed to the packaging guide?
[09:50] <jussi01> geser, yeah
[09:51] <geser> the install target in the rules files is the right place for it
[09:51] <geser> you usually do there make install (or the equivalent for your software)
[09:52] <jussi01> geser, thanks

[10:49] <joejaxx> i really should not run into problems but just in case
[10:49] <LaserJock> you built some packages?
[10:50] <joejaxx> i rebuilt the ones from debian unstable
[10:50] <joejaxx> 1.0.8
[10:50] <joejaxx> 1.1.1 does not build on ubuntu
[10:54] <joejaxx> hmm
[10:54] <joejaxx> i wonder how i should deal with apt-setup
[10:55] <LaserJock> why doesn't 1.1.1 build?
[11:20] <joejaxx> LaserJock: i do not know actually
[11:21] <joejaxx> LaserJock: gnomefreak says it does not build on sid either
[11:21] <joejaxx> but somehow it is in the debian repository :P
[11:23] <joejaxx> brb time to patch slim with semi-xsession support and build it
[11:42] <geser> joejaxx: does it perhaps need some packages from experimental?
[11:43] <LaserJock> I wonder if it was a binary upload
[11:45] <bddebian> Later gang
[11:45] <geser> only for one arch (i386), the others were build on the experimental build farm
[11:53] <TheMuso> Hi guys.
[11:53] <joejaxx> geser: maybe
[11:54] <joejaxx> but that means i cannot use it
