BenC | Can anyone help me figure out why make is rm'ing a stamp file in my debian/rules? | 01:32 |
BenC | I got a target that deps on a stampfile, which has a rule to do something, and touches the stamp file, but then make does "rm stampfile" | 01:33 |
=== ion_ tries to remember how to get rid of that... | ||
ion_ | If "target-foo" is requested and "target-foo" depends on "target-bar", make may very well remove target-bar after target-foo has been created. | 01:35 |
BenC | foo-%: stamp-% | 01:36 |
BenC | @echo Made $* | 01:36 |
BenC | stamp-%: | 01:36 |
BenC | touch $@ | 01:36 |
BenC | with that Makefile, "make foo-temp" removed stamp-temp | 01:36 |
BenC | how can I make it not do that? | 01:36 |
BenC | hmm, looks like I need ".PHONY: stamp-temp" | 01:38 |
BenC | which sucks for a matching rule | 01:38 |
BenC | wait, no, that just made it skip the rule | 01:39 |
ion_ | No, then stamp-temp is expected to be a rule that doesn't actually create a file stamp-temp. | 01:39 |

BenC | seemed to work | 01:42 |
ion_ | Yes, but only as a side effect. It has a bit different semantics. | 01:43 |
BenC | well, .PRECIOUS: stamp-temp does | 01:43 |
ion_ | This should be the correct one: .SECONDARY : stamp-temp | 01:43 |
=== thepumpkin1979 [n=jhernand@190.72.175.241] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
BenC | anyway I can do the same thing without knowing what possible %'s there could be ahead of time? | 01:45 |
BenC | stamp-% doesn't work, but stamp-temp does | 01:45 |
ion_ | .PRECIOUS means never delete the target, even if its build failed, .SECONDARY means even if this target is deemed to be intermediary, dont delete it. | 01:45 |
ion_ | intermediate even. | 01:46 |
ion_ | Try .SECONDARY : | 01:46 |
BenC | ah, that works | 01:46 |
BenC | ion_: big thanks | 01:46 |
ion_ | yw. | 01:46 |
BenC | ion_: got time for another question? :) | 01:49 |
ion_ | Sure. | 01:49 |
BenC | foo-%: stamp-% | 01:49 |
BenC | stamp-%: | 01:49 |
BenC | touch $@ | 01:49 |
BenC | If I just have that, "make foo-temp" says no rule to make target | 01:49 |
BenC | I have to give commands for foo-% | 01:49 |
BenC | like the echo I had before | 01:49 |

EricBig | hi... can someone spare a sec for me? | 02:42 |
pochu | !ask | 02:42 |
ubotu | Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :) | 02:42 |
pochu | :) | 02:42 |
EricBig | i'm thinking to start a new project on uBuntu ... | 02:42 |
EricBig | in short, i want to hav a version of this that is usable for my mum | 02:42 |
EricBig | but im' not a programmer | 02:43 |
EricBig | so i want to know how and where should i start | 02:43 |
EricBig | say to look for partners etc. | 02:43 |
pochu | EricBig: ubuntu is usable by my grandma | 02:43 |
shawarma | You need to figure out, why you believe it's not already usable by her. | 02:43 |
pochu | so it should also be usable by your mother ;) | 02:43 |
=== jikanter [n=jordan@c-24-12-220-77.hsd1.il.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
shawarma | What's stopping her? | 02:44 |
EricBig | 3 words: two many buttons | 02:44 |
EricBig | for all the OS today | 02:44 |
EricBig | i think a proper OS for grandma should hv less than say 10 buttons | 02:44 |
EricBig | i want to make it like an internet kiosk or something like that | 02:44 |
EricBig | and can run on very very old laptops | 02:44 |
EricBig | say pentum 2 300mhz + 64m ram equivilant | 02:45 |
shawarma | An OS thatdoes less than 10 things seems rather useless to me. | 02:45 |
Chipzz | EricBig: that's a no-go I think | 02:45 |
pochu | then try xubuntu? | 02:45 |
tonyyarusso | EricBig: Xubuntu? | 02:45 |
pochu | !xubuntu | EricBig | 02:45 |
ubotu | EricBig: xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of Gnome. For more info, see http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop". | For support, see #xubuntu | See also: !ubuntu and !xubuntu-channels | 02:45 |
Chipzz | EricBig: I used to run debian (slimmed down) on a p2 233 with 64MB ram | 02:45 |
Chipzz | and that's with a lot less daemons than ubuntu | 02:46 |
Chipzz | didn't work | 02:46 |
tonyyarusso | 64 megs is pretty slim, so if XFCE doesn't cut it try IceWM, fluxbox, enlightenment, or others | 02:46 |
Chipzz | firefox (or epiphany for that matter) just eats memory | 02:46 |
EricBig | sorry. im really knew to uBuntu... in fact, i'm a graduate student studying technology policy and one of the things i discovered along my research is that in general technology is too much for average ppl in terms of desktop computing | 02:46 |
Chipzz | pochu: I doubt xubuntu would help much there ;) | 02:47 |

EricBig | i'm thinkin to hav an interface that only hav say 5-6 big buttons in the middle of it : E-mail, Web, Music, Movie that's it | 02:47 |
EricBig | thanks ubotu, im checking xbuntu now | 02:48 |
EricBig | think about all the web 2.0 stuff and how google start to moving everything desektop into browser. | 02:48 |
Chipzz | EricBig: ubotu is a bot, and doesn't care about you thanking him ;;) | 02:48 |
=== tonyyarusso thinks the problem here is people, not software | ||
Chipzz | +much | 02:49 |
EricBig | its my first time in IRC, sorry for being an idiot | 02:49 |
Chipzz | EricBig: no offence meant ;) | 02:49 |
pochu | EricBig: we have always had a first time :) | 02:49 |
Chipzz | pochu: on 64MB of RAM, even X + twm + firefox will grind to a halt pretty fast ;P | 02:50 |
tonyyarusso | dillo ? | 02:50 |
EricBig | i'm thinkin to slim down everything ... | 02:50 |
tonyyarusso | links2 -g? | 02:50 |
Chipzz | tonyyarusso: with proper javascript etc support.. ? | 02:50 |
EricBig | my ultimate goal is to challenge the OLPC project | 02:50 |
tonyyarusso | Chipzz: I think dillo can, not sure if links2 does or not | 02:50 |
EricBig | so a slim-down version of uBuntu - which is still a decent OS (unlike the OLPC sugar, which i think is er... not so decent), to run on a very cheap hardware platform | 02:51 |
Chipzz | tonyyarusso: EricBig is referring I think to stuff like gmail etc; doubt that would work properly on anything except firefox/konq/opera | 02:51 |
tonyyarusso | Chipzz: You could probably compile Firefox with some options to make it less featureful but smaller | 02:52 |
EricBig | is it ok to post a link for one of my blog entries here? is it against the channel rule? | 02:52 |
pochu | or use epiphany | 02:52 |
=== jdong [n=jdong@ubuntu/member/jdong] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
tonyyarusso | no idea what rules are here...not one of my usual realms | 02:53 |
EricBig | tonnyy - that's basically what i 'm thinking, to recompile everything and kick-out features that will never use by old grandma | 02:53 |
Chipzz | tonyyarusso: still, IMHO firefox still grossly leaks a sh*tload of resources (like server-side pixmaps etc...) | 02:53 |
Chipzz | I have my doubts how far you would get | 02:53 |
Chipzz | and the mozilla developers refuse to acknowledge the problem and keeping referring to it as a "feature" doesn't help much :P | 02:54 |
Chipzz | s/refuse/refusing/ | 02:54 |
EricBig | umm.. here's a post i wrote a while back: http://blog.sinnovate.net/2007/04/some-fundamental-thoughts-on-public-top.html | 02:54 |
EricBig | umm.. just want to ask, will IRC channel be a proper way to looking for developers that are willing to start a project ? | 02:57 |
bhale | not really | 02:57 |
bhale | your call for help will be off the screen in a few minutes | 02:57 |
EricBig | so where should i go ? any suggestions thx bhale. | 02:57 |
Chipzz | bhale: arguably ;) | 02:57 |
EricBig | maybe forums / discussion boards? | 02:57 |
bhale | if you'd like | 02:58 |
Chipzz | EricBig: a lot depends on your timing; what bhale means is that irc is a very volatile medium ;) | 02:58 |
EricBig | is there any place for discussions for new ideas / projects like mine in the ubuntu / linux community? | 02:58 |
bhale | but development is tracked on the wiki and launchpad | 02:58 |

EricBig | bhale: advertising? you mean a full project proposal? i will do that, but don't know exactly how should I do it | 02:59 |
ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about specs - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi | 02:59 |
bhale | ubotu: you are dead to me. | 02:59 |
EricBig | and, once i've come up with a Blue-print, where should I post it ---- that's the problem ... how uBuntu people normally deal with this | 03:01 |
bhale | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FeatureSpecifications | 03:01 |
Chipzz | EricBig: btw, if I may say something; you're actually proposing 2 different things: | 03:02 |
Chipzz | 1) create a very simple GUI with only 6 buttons | 03:02 |
Chipzz | 2) create a distro that runs on 64MB of RAM | 03:02 |
EricBig | Chipzz: EXACTLY | 03:02 |
Chipzz | make sure to propose these as 2 different blueprints; they're 2 different and seperate goals | 03:03 |
EricBig | and of course there is a way to get more buttoms out, say after entering admin username and pwd . | 03:03 |
Chipzz | one which may be implemented a lot faster than the other | 03:03 |
EricBig | i know, i think 1) is most important actually, and i guess you are saying 1) is easier right? | 03:04 |
Chipzz | easier, but not per se one that would be accepted | 03:04 |
EricBig | because 2) is largely because of the hardware cost, which can be overcome by time & price drops | 03:04 |
Chipzz | also, 2) is something very general (reducing needed resources) which is a global goal which people are working on all the time | 03:05 |
EricBig | but my general feeling is the latest distro of uBuntu (7.x) is big and powerful, and it inevitiablly put more pressures on the hardware? | 03:06 |
Chipzz | not necessarily correct | 03:06 |
EricBig | or do you mean developers do the kernal optimization and feature adding at same time? | 03:06 |
=== Fujitsu finds it a little sad that jigdo can't be used to grab Feisty... The images refer to an old version of update-manager(-core) that isn't in the archive any more :( | ||
EricBig | so the weight doesnt jump up too quickly? | 03:06 |
Chipzz | for example, a lot of improvements have been made to pango, which makes font rendering faster | 03:06 |
Fujitsu | EricBig: It should be no more resource-intensive than 6.10. | 03:07 |
Chipzz | EricBig: most of that kind of stuff is being done upstream anyway | 03:07 |
EricBig | right. | 03:07 |
EricBig | chipzz, can i hav your contact method like an e-mail address? or does IRC support something like add buddy in ICQ? | 03:09 |
Chipzz | EricBig: I'm not really an ubuntu developper; mostly just lurking here ;) | 03:09 |
EricBig | umm... i just need some one to help me start with.. coz i have been mostly working on user study and technology policy side and never touch the development field ... | 03:10 |
ion_ | ericbig: Has Ubuntu been called uBuntu somewhere? Im just curious. | 03:11 |
Chipzz | EricBig: the best thing you can do actually is proposing blueprints really (after investigating their feasability) | 03:13 |
=== micahcowan [n=micahcow@ubuntu/member/micahcowan] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
EricBig | icon_ sorry im a mac user so got used to decaptialize first letter in every word :P | 03:14 |
micahcowan | When is a simple patch preferable to a debdiff? For instance, in the case of packages that get heavy development and are either synced often or get frequent bugfixes, is it better to supply a plain diff and let the package maintainers decide how it should fall with ordering/package-version? | 03:14 |
Chipzz | EricBig: the button idea is not a bad idea per se; but it has to fit in with what ubuntu developers think is a good idea | 03:14 |
Chipzz | EricBig: but it's something that you could very easily implement with pygtk really; I'ld say about 100 lines of code | 03:15 |
EricBig | Chipzz: is Launchpad only for ubuntu or its for general opensource softare | 03:15 |
Chipzz | EricBig: it's meant for general opensource software, but there aren't a lot of projects actually using it as such (though there are some) | 03:16 |
EricBig | but it's more thant that... because the less buttons you allows user to click, the 'smarter' the system must be, they will have to 'actively' understand what users want without asking users to click lots of buttons and enter too many lines of command | 03:16 |
EricBig | Chipzz: and it must not be annoying at the same time ( a bad example is the clippy in ms office) | 03:17 |
Chipzz | EricBig: a good question you would have to ask yourself is: is the button interface actually needed, and why is it needed | 03:18 |
EricBig | Chipzz: things like WYSIWYG and drag-n-drop for everything is a must. | 03:18 |
=== mgalvin [n=mgalvin@ubuntu/member/mgalvin] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
Chipzz | because gnome goes to great lengths to create a very easy and non-complicated menu structure | 03:18 |
Chipzz | if it fails to do that, maybe something is wrong with the gnome menu structure | 03:19 |
Chipzz | so the right question to ask may not be: "do we need a buttons-interface?" but instead "what's wrong with the current menu so my mum can't find the email-program easily?" | 03:20 |
=== freeflying [n=freeflyi@ubuntu/member/freeflying] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
EricBig | Chipzz: i think, if you mark down the buttons you click on a GUI OS, say windows, and their frequencies, you will discover for most of the time people are only using a Word Processor, music player, web browser, email client and chat-client. that makes other buttons less useful and a waste of desktop space and system resrouce | 03:20 |
Chipzz | EricBig: there's the novell slab thingy, which keeps recently used menu entries in the 1st level menu like the windows xp menu does | 03:21 |

=== zerbero5 [n=jga@p85.212.41.54.tisdip.tiscali.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
EricBigLineDropp | Chipzz: you mean the specs on launchpad right? | 03:26 |
Chipzz | EricBigLineDropp: uhu | 03:26 |
Chipzz | EricBigLineDropp: what I mean is, argue for why you're proposing something, consider alternatives, use cases, etc | 03:27 |
EricBigLineDropp | Chipzz: the philosophy behind is to make the GUI / OS as simple as possible, while sacrificing user's choices. For example, only allow user to use one e-mail client, say Thunderbird, and that's it. Although there might be pros and coins between different apps, average user won't care. the problem of today's mainstream OS is that there are too many options, too many configurations and too many things to | 03:27 |
EricBigLineDropp | Chipzz: there is nothing wrong for the existing menu structure, just they don't need to be there if most people don't use it for the most of the time. | 03:28 |
EricBigLineDropp | <Chipzz> but anyway thanks a lot for the advice... i will go back and write a full spec / proposal and see what happens next. | 03:29 |

voraistos | but, since i am a bad person and dont treat my hardware very well, its not in superb condition | 05:02 |
mjg59 | voraistos: If you ahve something that you believe to be a bug, please file it in the bug tracker, not here | 05:02 |

=== Fujitsu wonders if update-manager 1:0.59.19 could be republished, so that jigdo works. | ||
Flannel | Guys, where is update-manager-core? | 05:03 |
Fujitsu | Flannel: The ISOs are inconsistent with the archive. | 05:03 |
Fujitsu | Flannel: That's what I was just talking about :( | 05:03 |
Fujitsu | You'll have to use rsync. | 05:03 |
Flannel | Not for me, I'm not upgrading. But just wondering what to file a bug against | 05:04 |
Fujitsu | Flannel: there's nothing you can really file a bug against, but it's inconvenient to not be able to use jigdo. | 05:05 |
voraistos | there are some vague bug reports about it, but they are not taken seriously it seems | 05:05 |
Flannel | Fujitsu: eh, the website should be. | 05:05 |
wasabi__ | About this archive thing. Are you suggesting that the ISO of feisty has packages not in the archive? | 05:06 |
Fujitsu | Flannel: Pardon? | 05:06 |
Flannel | Fujitsu: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 05:06 |
=== freeflying [n=freeflyi@ubuntu/member/freeflying] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
Flannel | Besides the fact that the nav on top of that page points to the wiki page still, but that's a second bug | 05:06 |
wasabi__ | It's perhaps somewhat reasonable to think... which mirror of hte archive are you looking in, for instance. | 05:06 |
Fujitsu | wasabi__: Indeed. a new update-manager was published for Kubuntu, which meant that the one in the Ubuntu ISOs was removed. That is wrong. | 05:06 |
wasabi__ | Oh, jigdo. | 05:06 |
wasabi__ | I see. | 05:06 |
wasabi__ | That does seem like an issue. Shouldn't a new upgrade to that go to -updates? | 05:07 |
Fujitsu | wasabi__: No, because it was before Feisty was released, but after the latest Ubuntu ISOs were created. | 05:07 |
wasabi__ | So somebody needs to rebuild the ISOs? | 05:08 |
Fujitsu | ISOs can't really be rebuilt at this stage. | 05:08 |
mjg59 | Or re-publish that binary to the archive | 05:08 |
Fujitsu | mjg59: That's what I asked earlier. | 05:08 |
mjg59 | Yes | 05:08 |
Fujitsu | I suppose we wait for Mithrandir or so for that. | 05:08 |
mjg59 | Yeah. He ought to be up in a few hours. | 05:09 |
Fujitsu | Noted. | 05:09 |
Fujitsu | I hope Soyuz actually supports doing that sort of thing. | 05:09 |
=== bimberi [n=dave@ubuntu/member/pdpc.active.bimberi] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
voraistos | i bought a new laptop thinking mine was broken... I bought one from dell (didnt receive it yet), and i was just checking if ubuntu was running nice out of the box or not... when i found a huge thread about over heating issues. Strangely somebody described the same problem as i have.. The laptop crashes after a while, disk stops spinning because it seems the chipset fucked up. when i reboot the hdd is not detected anym | 05:11 |
voraistos | ore, and to use it right now i had to cap cpu freq at 600 mhz. Could this be kernel related ? or something else ? | 05:11 |
mjg59 | voraistos: Please file a bug, or if one already exists add a comment. This isn't the appropriate place to raise issues of this nature. | 05:12 |
voraistos | i just want to know how to make this high priority ? | 05:12 |
wasabi__ | Things become high priority on their own. | 05:12 |
Fujitsu | voraistos: File a bug. It will be looked at. | 05:13 |
mjg59 | The appropriate developers will flag it as high priority if they think it's appropriate | 05:13 |
voraistos | yeah, well, people destroyed their brand new hardware because of that ! | 05:13 |
mjg59 | voraistos: And talking about it here will do nothing to help that | 05:13 |
voraistos | i dunno... you guys are the devs, maybe you heard about that :P | 05:14 |
voraistos | (i mean the problem :) ) | 05:14 |
Fujitsu | That sounds like pretty stupid hardware if it dies like that. | 05:14 |
wasabi__ | I actually have a laptop suseptable to that, and yes. | 05:15 |
wasabi__ | Early generiation ibook g3. If the cpu stays on while it's shut, it'll melt the LCD. ;) | 05:15 |
wasabi__ | So, if your suspend is busted! | 05:15 |
mjg59 | voraistos: Nobody here is going to tell you anything you haven't already been told | 05:15 |
Fujitsu | wasabi__: That's what ibooks are for. | 05:15 |

keescook | is there a fix for rdesktop? Sounds like a regression that needs fixing. :( | 07:58 |

fabbione | hey pitti | 08:21 |
fabbione | keescook: i don't think it's a toolchain issue here, but a packaging one | 08:21 |
fabbione | keescook: what we need to make sure from gcc is to install proper defaults in that file for each $arch | 08:21 |

pitti | keescook, fabbione: I didn't see the start of the discussion, you mean to make gcc look for some external conffiles which modify the profile? that does not seem to make sense to me TBH | 08:25 |

keescook | pitti: yeah, I think fabbione just took my u-dev ml post and brought it up here. | 08:26 |
fabbione | pitti: ubuntu-devel@ | 08:26 |
pitti | I don't see how to solve it without a gcc wrapper that is used by packages; after all, it *is* a different compiler (behaviour) than vanilla 'gcc' | 08:26 |
fabbione | pitti: well it depends how you want to look at it | 08:26 |
pitti | fabbione: well, of course we can make gcc itself look for $DEB_BUILD_CFLAGS or so | 08:27 |
fabbione | pitti: i think the biggest motivator to have a conf file is to avoid to set the default in gcc for testing | 08:27 |
fabbione | pitti: that too... | 08:27 |
pitti | fabbione: ah, well, the conffile could check the environment if it is really a script | 08:27 |
pitti | fabbione: i. e. turn the environment into a gcc profile? | 08:27 |
fabbione | pitti: that's my best guess from kees email | 08:27 |
=== tsmithe [n=toby@ubuntu/member/tsmithe] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
jernst | fabbione: by the way rdesktop is unasable currently so it can't be worst | 08:28 |
pitti | fabbione: right, we cannot hardcode those as defaults in the profile | 08:28 |
fabbione | pitti: IMHO it can also be useful to archive rebuild.. like we decide to test -foo option.. we can do that without having to change gcc defaults and if it works, we will already know what packages will FTBFS and how.. it will allow a bunch of pre-testing options that at the moment can be more annoying to achieve | 08:29 |
fabbione | pitti: never mind that we can also change the defaults without having to upload a gcc | 08:29 |
pitti | fabbione: right, you are preaching to the choir :) | 08:30 |
fabbione | pitti: ehhe | 08:30 |
pitti | I just wasn't sure how to connect the env vars to the gcc profile | 08:30 |
fabbione | i see what kees wants.. we just need to make sure to implement it right at the first go | 08:30 |
fabbione | yeah that's what he is really asking | 08:30 |
ajmitch | hey pitti | 08:31 |
fabbione | pitti: and given our previous experiences with gcc wrappers... | 08:31 |
pitti | fabbione: and then we need to plan that with Debian; there's no way that we can change 15.000 packages for it | 08:31 |
fabbione | pitti: exactly | 08:31 |
pitti | fabbione: well, for testing it might be good enough to preliminary patch dpkg-buildpackage IMHO | 08:32 |
fabbione | it needs to be external to the packaging but still possible to override | 08:32 |
pitti | fabbione: i. e. have dpkg-buildpackage set those to our defaults | 08:32 |
fabbione | pitti: planning with Debian means talking to doko.. so that's somehow easy :) | 08:33 |

pitti | can't we put it back somehow? | 08:34 |

Fujitsu | A little manual hackery shouldn't hurt too much. | 08:35 |
pitti | well, it's hard to convince Soyuz to not remove it again | 08:35 |
Fujitsu | Won't it only be removed on another upload of it to Feisty's release pocket? | 08:36 |
pitti | Fujitsu: no, I believe the cleanup runs daily | 08:36 |
Fujitsu | I thought it was changed to Superceded when a new upload occurred. | 08:36 |
pitti | Fujitsu: and packages in different pockets are not superseded | 08:36 |
Fujitsu | pitti: Surely if it is republished, there won't be another upload to set it back to superseded, so it won't be removed? | 08:36 |
Mithrandir | I'm wondering if we can force-include it in the .jigdo file somehow | 08:37 |
Mithrandir | that'd be a better solution | 08:37 |
Mithrandir | .jigdo/.template | 08:37 |
pitti | Mithrandir: in fact, if you just rebuild the template, since it won't find the deb, won't that happen automatically? | 08:37 |
Fujitsu | That works too. | 08:37 |
pitti | i. e. with the classic jigdo-file, not with the cdimage jigdo feature | 08:38 |
Mithrandir | pitti: I don't know jigdo well enough to answer yes or no to that question, but I suspect so. | 08:38 |
Mithrandir | yeah | 08:38 |
pitti | erm, wait | 08:38 |
pitti | does that mean we ship a .deb on the CD which we don't have the source for? | 08:38 |
Fujitsu | pitti: Indeed, that is correct. Eek. | 08:38 |
pitti | thats...bad | 08:38 |
Mithrandir | no, it's on the source CDs | 08:39 |
Fujitsu | Well, it's on LP, but that's likely to be cleaned at some point. | 08:39 |
Mithrandir | source CDs are per derivative. | 08:39 |
fabbione | pitti: all the sources are stored on LP anyway.. | 08:39 |
Fujitsu | fabbione: They're cleanup up sometimes, so not there forever. | 08:40 |
fabbione | pitti: for each single upload. that should be enough to fulfill GPL requirements of making the source available | 08:40 |
pitti | fabbione: true, but not really in the archive any more | 08:40 |
fabbione | pitti: i don't think it matters.. they are still available | 08:40 |
pitti | Fujitsu: fabio's right, all old sources are preserved | 08:40 |
fabbione | Fujitsu: in LP they are not deleted afaik | 08:40 |
Mithrandir | and we own the copyright so it's not an actual problem. We're free to ship GPL-ed binaries without source (but we shouldn't). | 08:40 |

pitti | Fujitsu: check https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager, you can click on all past versions and will see the package | 08:41 |
pitti | Mithrandir: well, we are free to ship binaries without source xor GPLed binaries, right :) | 08:42 |
Fujitsu | Mar 16 14:24:47 <lifeless> LaserJock: why not give ubuntu archive urls ? | 08:42 |
Fujitsu | Mar 16 14:25:16 <LaserJock> lifeless: because archive packages come and go | 08:42 |
Fujitsu | Mar 16 14:25:30 <LaserJock> we want access to every source package ever :-) | 08:42 |
Fujitsu | Mar 16 14:25:34 <lifeless> LaserJock: the librarian has garbage collection too though | 08:42 |
pitti | Fujitsu: I guess the only thing that keeps them alive is precisely the +source package :) | 08:42 |
lifeless | you called? | 08:43 |
=== Fujitsu apologises to lifeless. | ||
Fujitsu | pitti: What do you mean? | 08:44 |
pitti | Fujitsu: (leaving area of definite knowledge) I believe that the librarian deletes files which are not referenced from anywhere any more | 08:45 |
pitti | Fujitsu: but since the +source package refers to them, their reference count never drops to zero | 08:45 |
lifeless | thats right | 08:45 |
pitti | s/package/package page/ | 08:45 |
lifeless | I know that historical size is a concern | 08:45 |
pitti | lifeless: well, it's a life safer sometimes | 08:46 |
Fujitsu | pitti: So they will grow indefinitely... Hm.. | 08:46 |
pitti | I used it more than once to get a previous version | 08:46 |
lifeless | so theres no 'contract' if you like that these will be kept forever at this point, only that what is currently published will always have its source available | 08:46 |
lifeless | but the soyuz devs know more | 08:46 |
Lathiat | AIUI your supposed to kepe the source available for X years from ship date arent you? | 08:46 |
Fujitsu | That release has to stick around for at least 18 months + some years. | 08:47 |
elmo | no | 08:47 |
lifeless | Lathiat: for the written offer clause only. | 08:47 |
elmo | the X years stuff is one option, and it's not one we use | 08:47 |
elmo | we use 'ship source with binary' | 08:47 |
Lathiat | ah ok | 08:47 |
lifeless | elmo: isn't the CD cover a written offer ? | 08:47 |
elmo | and we do it by having our archive management stuff (dak or soyuz) do source reference counting | 08:47 |
Lathiat | except that the source isnt on the default CD | 08:47 |
Lathiat | so if you shipit me a cd... | 08:47 |
elmo | lifeless: yes, but that's independent of this discussion, and even that relies on the source reference counting | 08:47 |
Lathiat | right | 08:48 |
lifeless | elmo: right it does. Your 'no' was a little unqualified though ;) | 08:48 |
elmo | well, look these are two different things | 08:48 |
elmo | Canonical has to be able to provide the source to someone because of shipit | 08:48 |
lifeless | anyhow, I know this stuff; ciao. | 08:48 |
elmo | but that doesn't mean ubuntu.com has to make it available | 08:48 |
Lathiat | right, ok | 08:49 |
elmo | but anyway, I don't know what the context was, but please don't use librarian URLs for archive files | 08:50 |
elmo | that's not going to scale well at all | 08:51 |
elmo | as long as a binary is published on archive.ubuntu.com, there will be a valid (albeit unreferenced in Sources.gz) corresponding url for the source, also on archive.ubuntu.com | 08:51 |
Fujitsu | elmo: In this case it isn't published any more, but is on ISOs. | 08:51 |
lifeless | elmo: that wasn't the context at all :). It was about librarian garbage collection. | 08:52 |
pitti | elmo: original problem was that ubuntu CDs have an older version of update-manager than the kubuntu CDs, and the older version has gone from archive | 08:52 |
elmo | Fujitsu: err, what? | 08:52 |
elmo | whine | 08:52 |
elmo | seriously? | 08:52 |
Fujitsu | elmo: A new update-manager was uploaded to Feisty after the Ubuntu ISOs were rolled. | 08:52 |
lifeless | should it not have gone into f-s-u ? | 08:52 |
Fujitsu | Kubuntu was rerolled, as it needed that fix... but Ubuntu now has unpublished binaries on the ISO. | 08:52 |
pitti | I raised the GPL problem, but was pointed to the still existing source, so I *phew*'ed | 08:52 |
lifeless | ah | 08:52 |
elmo | fan-TASTIC | 08:53 |
Fujitsu | pitti: I suggest you revoke that phew for now. | 08:53 |
Fujitsu | elmo: that's right. | 08:53 |

mjg59 | Providing the preferred form of modification for the Nelson Mandella video would be bad enough... | 09:06 |
Mithrandir | hiya Matthew. | 09:06 |
Mithrandir | mjg59: but is it under the GPL? | 09:06 |
Mithrandir | it could easily be licenced under the BSD licence in which case we're fine. | 09:06 |
Mithrandir | or some CC licence | 09:06 |
Fujitsu | Mithrandir: Yes, but I completely ignored the fact that there are source CDs and similar. | 09:06 |
mjg59 | Mithrandir: Ah, but source = preferred form of modification. Judging by debian-legal. | 09:07 |
Mithrandir | mjg59: luckily, we don't have debian-legal here. | 09:07 |

Fujitsu | lifeless: When is that feature arriving? | 09:11 |
Mithrandir | lifeless: OOo is an ancient project with tons and tons of commits, so I wouldn't be surprised if the .bzr repo would end up being quite large. And even if not, I'd like not to have to ship stuff like the .git tree for the linux kernel since it's fairly big. | 09:11 |

cjwatson | our jigdo files are actually generated by mkisofs, y'see | 12:19 |
Mithrandir | cjwatson: yes, but we should be able to just download the ISO, point it at an up-to-date mirror and then generate the jigdo file the old way. | 12:19 |
Mithrandir | and then replace it in the tree | 12:19 |
cjwatson | yeah, theoretically | 12:20 |
cjwatson | I'll give it a try | 12:20 |
mvo | doko: I haven't investigated this closely but my gut-feeling is that "-s" is a good idea and that some of the failures with fonts are releasted to the fact that we don't use it | 12:20 |
Mithrandir | cheers. | 12:20 |
mvo | doko: or rather, that some packages use it and some don't | 12:21 |
cjwatson | TBH I'd almost rather figure out how to hex-edit it into the .template :) | 12:21 |
Mithrandir | cjwatson: ew. I think just regenerating it is easier, and that's how it's traditionally done so I suspect it's not very error-prone? | 12:22 |
cjwatson | surely it's just dd'ing update-manager-core and update-manager into the right place and removing them from the .jigdo | 12:22 |

seb128 | robertj: its uses the samba "net usershare" and it doesn't need to add any user | 04:27 |

robertj | seb128: so how does that void creating samba users? | 04:31 |
robertj | err avoid | 04:31 |
seb128 | robertj: it's done by nautilus-sendto using net usershare | 04:33 |
seb128 | if your user is member of the samba group it can add samba shares | 04:33 |
seb128 | and require an username and password for them | 04:33 |
robertj | yes, thats fine but what about other users that need to access it | 04:33 |
seb128 | ? | 04:33 |
seb128 | give them the username and password you used | 04:34 |
robertj | seb128: is that per-share? | 04:34 |
seb128 | I need to look on how it works exactly | 04:35 |
seb128 | but it should be | 04:35 |
seb128 | the usual way you share thing is right click on a directory and share it | 04:35 |
robertj | seb128: the problem is if you try to enforce permissions samba can't auth users without you giving them per-user passwords again | 04:36 |
robertj | and most orgs won't get by with per-share passwords | 04:36 |
robertj | and without that you have fundamentally the same problems as you have with a security = share samba share | 04:37 |
seb128 | what is wrong with having a password for a share? | 04:38 |
robertj | seb128: because then you end up needing two interfaces for medium businesses and home users | 04:38 |
seb128 | what do medium businesses need? | 04:38 |
robertj | they need each user to have their own password so you can log access | 04:39 |
robertj | and medium-large businesses also need a structure that integrated with their SSO, which pam gives you for free | 04:39 |
robertj | so if you have pam hash smb passwords you can join your smb machine to ads or samba4 and everyone will live happily ever after | 04:40 |
seb128 | so you basically want to add every system user to the samba users list? | 04:40 |
robertj | seb128: sorry i confused that a bit | 04:40 |
robertj | up until the point you join a directory | 04:40 |
robertj | so before then I do want to add every user | 04:40 |
seb128 | k | 04:41 |
robertj | and if you use authtool to switch to a directory then you would want it to edit that portion of pam out | 04:41 |
robertj | so the big win is if you have a decidedly medium business | 04:41 |
seb128 | I mentioned samba shares on the list of things that would be nice to fix next cycle | 04:41 |
seb128 | so I guess we will discuss it at next UDS | 04:42 |
robertj | and you have a computer with 6 users on it | 04:42 |
robertj | and you think "ok, I want to make the spreadsheet available to my employees, but be able to tell if someone screws up who it was" | 04:42 |
robertj | so if the smb users are auto-created you can add samba through Add/Remove and the only thing you need to do is uncomment the homes directory and add writabe = yes and restart samba | 04:43 |
robertj | and you don't have to call mary in from home to put in her password, and you don't have to ask mary what her password is, or give her another password | 04:43 |
robertj | and if you add another 30-50 users you don't have to keep dual-entering passwords, or syncing passwords, or end up sharing a password with 50 users | 04:44 |
robertj | worst-case scenario...you turn that machine into a directory server that doesn't | 04:46 |
robertj | doesn't run SMB, and you end up with a million hashed passwords you don't need, but that's really far-fetched ;) | 04:46 |

micahcowan | What happens, release+1 development-wise, after a launch? Is a straight copy-over of feisty to gutsy repositories done, and when is that usually finished (and gutsy repos opened, and development can begin)? | 05:33 |
Hobbsee | micahcowan: pretty much. the first stuff is the toolchain, but they started doing that towards the end of feisty, so it should get done quicker | 05:34 |
micahcowan | Hobbsee, what constitutes the toolchain? I'm assuming all of core and universe are carried over at some point (and then later potentially merged with Debian) | 05:35 |
Hobbsee | micahcowan: the stuff in build-essential, and the stuff marked as essential | 05:35 |
Hobbsee | the really core stuff | 05:35 |
pochu | micahcowan: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FeistyPlusOneToolchainRoadmap | 05:36 |

Hobbsee | ah | 05:38 |
cjwatson | we're in the middle of this - doko's uploaded initial toolchain versions, and we're just waiting for the buildd operator to wake up at this point (he's in .au) | 05:38 |
Hobbsee | i thoguht it all counted | 05:38 |
Hobbsee | bah. it's not 2am yet. wake him up. | 05:38 |
micahcowan | Does development for gutsy usually start out as simply pbuilder stuff, then (since most of the OS isn't there yet), and if so, when does it tend to move to actual development within the OS itself? | 05:38 |
cjwatson | the OS is there, we have feisty | 05:38 |
cjwatson | feisty gets copied to gutsy to start with | 05:39 |
Hobbsee | micahcowan: yes, although there are hacks for pbuilder for testing that things work. as soon as it's stablish, people will move to gutsy | 05:39 |
micahcowan | okay, that's part of what I'm asking. | 05:39 |
micahcowan | That's been accomplished already (the copying)? | 05:39 |
cjwatson | yes, that was done a few hours back | 05:39 |
cjwatson | archive.ubuntu.com is being hammered though so it hasn't been successfully mirrored yet | 05:40 |
pochu | And is the repo opened? :) | 05:40 |
robertj | seb128: do we wanna have one big monolithic spec for samba integration though if we can do smaller specs that don't block? | 05:40 |
cjwatson | pochu: still frozen until the toolchain is in | 05:40 |
pochu | cjwatson: k, ty | 05:40 |
cjwatson | fear not, it'll be announced ;) | 05:40 |
robertj | btw, anyone got throughput stats on archive? | 05:40 |
seb128 | robertj: having a spec doesn't seem to be too complicated | 05:40 |
seb128 | robertj: we can describe several changes to do on it | 05:41 |
micahcowan | Do a lot of devels tend to have installs of both the current (for usability) and next (for devel) releases on their machines? Or do many devs tend to prefer virtual machine installs for the devel until it gets dependable? | 05:41 |
cjwatson | it should work once the buildd chroots are created, but we prefer to get the toolchain through first so that we don't have to have stuff rebuilt | 05:41 |
micahcowan | (Sorry if I'm asking a volume of questions more common to a six-year-old child; guess I just never followed this train of thought before) | 05:41 |
cjwatson | a virtual machine install sounds like a lot of effort, I wouldn't bother with that | 05:42 |
cjwatson | some folks dual-boot, some just go all-out and trust to ability to recover :) | 05:42 |
micahcowan | cjwatson, I'd do the latter, but the rest of my family probably wouldn't appreciate it when things break :) | 05:42 |
cjwatson | I tend to go all-out because working on the installer tends to give you plenty of experience with putting systems together from the ground up | 05:42 |
micahcowan | OTOH, I don't think I bothered with a separate /home partition, so that'd need adjusting... | 05:43 |
cjwatson | you don't actually need to run gutsy in order to work on it for the initial round of merges, but it does help to be able to test at least some things | 05:43 |
robertj | seb128: its not the spec, its finding people to implement it that's the hard part ;) | 05:43 |
micahcowan | Sure: you could pbuild all the way 'til release; but you can't find what's actually broken without running it :) | 05:44 |
cjwatson | quite so | 05:44 |

Hobbsee | micahcowan: it's already got example docs on how to do that | 05:46 |
seb128 | robertj: let's discuss what we wants to do, then we can split tasks, etc | 05:47 |

=== pitti hugs cjwatson | ||
pitti | right, he did vim for feisty, too | 06:20 |
cjwatson | haven't quite yet, testing a build first to make sure I don't like kill people's editor | 06:20 |
pitti | so traditionally I should upload the mutt merge first | 06:21 |
Mithrandir | cjwatson: everybody knows the real editor is ed anyway. | 06:21 |
cjwatson | the benefit of the editor wars is that it's hard to kill *everyone's* editor | 06:21 |

elmo | so, umm, when I press brightness up on this x60, the display turns off | 07:19 |
elmo | what's the most likely/suitable package as a victim for a bug report | 07:19 |
ogra | g-p-m :( | 07:20 |
ogra | or hal | 07:20 |
mjg59 | Kernel | 07:20 |
mjg59 | (probably) | 07:20 |
mjg59 | Does it happen at the console? | 07:21 |
elmo | will check | 07:21 |
elmo | it's just rebooting | 07:21 |
pitti | <match key="/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer:system.hardware.version" string="ThinkPad X60"> | 07:21 |
pitti | <merge key="laptop_panel.brightness_in_hardware" type="bool">true</merge> | 07:21 |
pitti | </match> | 07:21 |
pitti | so if it's a hal bug, then the bug is that it doesn't properly set this rule for your model | 07:21 |
ogra | pitti, there are pther ules that match on LENOVO iirc | 07:22 |
ogra | *other | 07:22 |
pitti | yep | 07:22 |
pitti | elmo: can you please followup to bug 61184? | 07:22 |
ubotu | Malone bug 61184 in hal "Screen brightness buttons don't work properly on Thinkpad Z61T" [Medium,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/61184 | 07:22 |
mjg59 | elmo: If you blacklist the video module, it'll probably work. It seems related to newer BIOSes which actually implement the acpi video extension properly | 07:22 |
mjg59 | pitti: No, I think this bug is entirely separate | 07:23 |
pitti | elmo: that's a collection of various thinkpad brightness quirks | 07:23 |
pitti | mjg59: oh, ok | 07:23 |
mjg59 | elmo: But I have no hardware that implements this stuff, so... | 07:23 |
elmo | it's horribly sluggish to react to the brightness up/down on the console | 07:23 |
mjg59 | It's very hard to figure out what on earth is going on | 07:23 |
elmo | mjg59: can I do anything to help remote debug this? | 07:24 |

kylem | i need to re-prod monteal about it. | 07:35 |
elmo | kylem: worth reporting this BUG? | 07:35 |
mjg59 | e1000 supports powering down the hardware when there's no cable plugged in | 07:35 |
mjg59 | The driver does nothing to power it up before checking the eeprom state | 07:35 |
mjg59 | = loss | 07:35 |
mjg59 | = loss that's been documented for over a year | 07:35 |
kylem | winningest. | 07:35 |
kylem | elmo, the video one? sure. | 07:36 |
mjg59 | There's nothing wrong with the hardware config, it's the software that's at fault | 07:36 |
kylem | mjg59, yes, which is why ignoring the eeprom warning universally is a bad idea. | 07:36 |
mjg59 | Yeah | 07:37 |

kylem | what you're saying is that you have a device on a network, and a windows program that exposes a serial interface to the device console (over the network) | 08:19 |

Draconicus | I'm not really asking for support. I'm just pointing out that something very simple has seemingly hosed my system. | 09:29 |

Burgwork | if it is an update from 6.10, file a bug | 09:34 |
Burgwork | if it was updated throughout the dev cycle, don;t | 09:34 |
Draconicus | It's quite a bug.. | 09:34 |
Draconicus | I didn't really do anything. D: | 09:34 |
geser | cjwatson: is the devscripts package from this url your merged package? | 09:34 |
Draconicus | And it's a fresh install, as stated in the thing.. | 09:34 |
Burgwork | Draconicus: file bug and ask for support elsewhere, thanks | 09:35 |
Draconicus | Alright, alright. I'm just trying to say that you've released too early. | 09:35 |
Burgwork | Draconicus: breaking on some random piece of hardware is a bug, not a release blocker | 09:36 |

Draconicus | Well, you go ahead and say that. I'll see it tested. | 09:37 |
Burgwork | Draconicus: it is a bug and if you file it, it should get fixed | 09:38 |
Draconicus | I need a solution now, but fine. | 09:39 |
Draconicus | This was supposed to be a nice, clean install for a client. | 09:39 |
