[12:42] yes [12:42] grayman: Just double click the deb, it'll install [12:42] i know how it installs [12:42] grayman: And it'll show up in synaptic afterwards, under "local or obsolete" [12:42] meh that's not the point [12:43] synaptic is a gui for apt and not dpkg [12:43] yes [12:43] grayman: then what is your point? [12:43] to make synaptic to attempt and look for deps for local packages [12:44] doesn't double clicking a deb automatically try and resolve dependencies? [12:44] no [12:44] it just says that you don't have that stuff [12:44] now go install it [12:45] That's all dpkg does too [12:45] yes [12:45] but why not allow it to look for dependencies in the repo?

[03:00] defendguin: 0.13.1 will probably be in gutsy, but exactly how were you involved with the process for you to have an opinion? I didn't see you on the mailing lists etc. [03:00] thats disappointing [03:01] its disappointing that you in no way contribute, but somehow feel that you are entitled to tell us what is horrible [03:01] sharms: sorry i just decided to pick up using monodevelop today [03:01] sharms: i apologize [03:01] At any rate, it will probably get synced to atleast http://packages.debian.org/unstable/devel/monodevelop [03:02] Also, if you care about it, come help package/update it :) === fowlduck- [n=nate@24-183-45-79.dhcp.mdsn.wi.charter.com] has joined #ubuntu-motu === gouki_ [n=gouki@ubuntu/member/gouki] has joined #ubuntu-motu [03:02] defendguin: not saying things to be mean, just saying them because everyone needs help here [03:03] i helped a lot with getting my laptop supported for this release. now all the buttons work :-) [03:05] gutsy wont be frozen for MOTU until august 16th [03:05] so whatever the newest fun version is it should make it in [03:11] i found someone who in etch [03:11] you get what i mean === jugo23 [n=jugo23@pool-71-115-133-218.gdrpmi.dsl-w.verizon.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu === zul_ [n=chuck@CPE0006258ec6c1-CM000a73655d0e.cpe.net.cable.rogers.com] has joined #ubuntu-motu === koke [n=koke@adsl-76-197-62-161.dsl.snfc21.sbcglobal.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu [03:40] good day [03:40] Heya zakame [03:41] hi bddebian === TheMuso [n=luke@ubuntu/member/themuso] has joined #ubuntu-motu [03:44] what to do today? :) [03:46] Greetings from Wentworth Falls, located in the Blue Mountains!

[04:01] Is there any kind of Ubuntu policy about whether or not to include software in the repositories that is designed for abusive uses (e.g. spam ware)? === pmj [n=mattias@h251n7c1o1116.bredband.skanova.com] has joined #ubuntu-motu [04:13] ScottK: I don't know of any policy we have to exclude software [04:14] Sounds like something that should be excluded though :-) [04:15] ScottK: but I think something that's obviously not good to put in our repos can be discussed and rejected [04:15] TheMuso: I've got a question for you [04:16] TheMuso: I'm working on a periodic table app doing various color schemes, but we're worried about accessibility [04:19] TheMuso: do you know of anybody that would be willing to look over some screenshots or something and give some advice? [04:19] fun discussion in #d-devel today [04:19] about ubuntu & giving back patches [04:19] bddebian/Laserjock: The problem of course is one man's spamware is another man's useful mail tool. Challenge/Response anti-spam solutions are one of my personal pet peeves and some entities (e.g. spamcop) consider them reportable spam. It's actually in the archive already and broken. If there's no clear policy, I just won't bother with fixing his bug and leave it at that. Thanks. [04:20] ajmitch: Is it a good or a bad thing? [04:20] ajmitch: yes, lots of that going around (planet.debian.org, etc.) [04:20] ajmitch: I thought we kind of took care of that [04:21] LaserJock: No, unfortunately I don't. [04:21] LaserJock: You might want to ask heno. [04:21] When he's around. [04:21] ajmitch: Oh yeah, now what? [04:21] ScottK: if it's debatible then we can debate it on #ubuntu-motu [04:21] TheMuso: ok, np. I just thought I'd ask [04:22] ScottK: Well I would say if it's already in we should fix it. I freakin' hate broken packages :) === ScottK would vote to remove it... [04:24] It's bug #109083 if anyone really wants to look into it.

[04:25] LaserJock: not nearly enough [04:25] ajmitch: patches.ubuntu.com being down isn't a help [04:25] I thought all the patches went to PTS though [04:25] What's the discussion??? [04:25] patches!!!! [04:26] I see that, what about? [04:26] That we still aren't sending enough over? [04:26] LaserJock: no, and the complaints are also along the lines of automated patches not having nearly enough context to be useful [04:26] sure [04:27] but I really don't think other derivs are really doing better [04:27] no, but few derivatives change things to the extent we do [04:27] exactly [04:27] either way, I feel like writing up something to identify who changed what [04:28] what do you mean? === bddebian just goes back to his hole [04:28] I can understand that it's hard to make use of some of the patches. I've seen patches in BTS that are just the entire Ubuntu debdiff. [04:28] sure [04:28] what else can we do with our scale? [04:28] we can encourage people to push things upstream [04:29] yes [04:29] we can provide automatic debdiffs [04:29] and we don't do that [04:29] but we're doing those things already [04:29] I just feel that certain people in Debian just want to give Ubuntu a hard time [04:29] sure we aren't perfect [04:30] nowhere close [04:30] but geeze, give us a break === ajmitch shuts up & goes back to work then [04:30] ajmitch: well no, that's not what I meant [04:30] if people have solutions I'm all ears [04:31] we don't do great at pushing upstream [04:31] but we don't do great at reviewing [04:31] we don't do great at getting in RC fixes [04:32] we've got a lot of things to improve on === LaserJock shuts up and let's ajmitch get back to work ;-) [04:32] LaserJock: Just because people complain doesn't mean things suck. === ScottK thinks the review process isn't especially broken. [04:32] (as an example) [04:33] no, but usually there is an element of truth when people do complain [04:34] Sure, but nothing is perfect either. [04:34] Debian is === ScottK got a little frustrated with the review process a few times during Feisty, but all in all I was very pleased as a new person showing up.

I'm not even sure what the hell I bring to the table anymore.. :'-( [04:47] bddebian: Knock that off. [04:47] You were a big help to me. [04:48] ScottK: Thanks but I'm old and codgy and stuff :_) [04:48] Also, you've done a lot to keep revu up to date. [04:49] As bad as it is, it'd be WAY worse without your efforts. [04:49] Plus, you don't get to whine to me that you're old. [04:49] Damn, I forgot about that :-) [04:51] My good news is that the REALLY hard new package I was planning on doing for Gutsy showed up in Debian NEW today! Makes my life easier... [04:52] Heh, nice [04:52] Woot. [04:52] No IPT either, so it's not like I forgot to check. [04:53] ITP you mean? :) [04:53] Yeah. If I could type, that's what I would have typed. [04:53] ScottK: which package? [04:54] DKIM-milter [04:54] DK-milter too, but I'm less interested in that.

Step a) Make a simple kickstart setup (doesn't really matter what it looks like as long as it has a post installation script that untars a .tar file) Step b) Boot up an Ubuntu Feisty Alternate Installation CD with the ks= (Hit F6 and add ks=http://somewebserver. [08:12] Also, I'd much appreciate MOTU folks taking a look at both REVU and Launchpad more often than not. :) === allee [n=ach@allee.mpe.mpg.de] has joined #ubuntu-motu [08:20] replied [08:21] phratman: launchpad is very big. REVU, not much can be done with at the moment as the merges havent been done [08:21] !info kickstart [08:21] Package kickstart does not exist in feisty [08:22] phratman: kickstart? [08:24] LaserJock: you're a science person. when will you figure out how to clone MOTU's [08:24] ? [08:25] phratman: d-i isnt something MOTU does - you may want to send to ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com or file a bug [08:25] Hobbsee: just shutdown REVU for gutsy, we don't need any new packages now ;) [08:25] ajmitch: i wish...i wish [08:25] ajmitch: get them to talk to white about getting them into debian [08:25] they should be going into debian anyway === xopher [n=xopher@unaffiliated/xopher] has joined #ubuntu-motu [08:25] yeah [08:25] althogh then they're unmaintained in debian, depending on the maintainer... [08:25] why white? surely StevenK would be a willing volunteer :) [08:26] you'd have to ask him that [08:26] in fact, that's not a bad idea [08:26] to get rid of REVU and shove everything into debian [08:26] unmaintained in debian vs ubuntu, what's the difference? [08:27] Last time I looked at a debian-new-maintainer guide, I seem to remember it suggested throwing packages up onto REVU as a possible option for getting your prospective package "out there"? === Lure [n=lure@external-7.hermes.si] has joined #ubuntu-motu [08:28] Hobbsee: PPAs will solve everything [08:29] ajmitch: true [08:29] ajmitch: vaporware always does [08:30] Hobbsee: kickstart is as far as I know, something that originated with Redhat and was originally ported from Redhat to Ubuntu around the Hoary release. [08:30] ahhh [08:30] Hobbsee: It's a *much* simpler approach to automating installs in my humble opinion. [08:31] phratman: d-i isnt something MOTU does - you may want to send to ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com or file a bug [08:31] Hobbsee: Yeah... I got that.. [08:31] :) [08:31] Would #ubuntu-devel be right for this discussion instead then? [08:32] Hobbsee: If you're interested, kickstart basically allows you to modify an installer CD's behavior without remastering it. [08:32] phratman: if anyone was there, yes [08:32] maybe [08:32] cjwatson's the one you're after, i guess [08:32] Ah, okay. [08:32] Is it better to not file a report and just talk to developer directly? [08:33] I found another bug which I haven't gotten around to filing just yet, but I figure if I talk to a developer things may go faster. === highvoltage [n=highvolt@196.1.61.16] has joined #ubuntu-motu [08:34] bug reports are oftne better, as irc dosnt make a good todo list [08:35] so you either get a response, then get forgotten about, or not seen for much longer, but not forgotten about [08:35] take your pick [08:36] Ah. [08:36] So what's the difference between #ubuntu-motu and #ubuntu-devel? [08:37] Is #ubuntu-devel core stuff or something? [08:37] yes [08:37] yes [08:37] Ah, gotcha. [08:37] I like the MOTU people though I guess most of my beef is with the devel folks :P [08:37] Anyway, I'm not of much relevance here. Thanks for all the help folks. [08:37] devel is for mean people [08:37] phratman, well there is much overlap :) [08:38] Ah.

[08:49] wolfeon: then fix the packages.... [08:49] Fujitsu: shouldn't need to.. === Hobbsee thinks this is fairly simple... [08:49] Fujitsu: Overall very well. Not stressful at all. Telstra of course screwed the line up late last week, so would have probably been online sooner otherwise, [08:49] wolfeon: Somebody has to. [08:49] wolfeon: well, that's very nice of you. we're volunteers, we shouldnt have to fix it either. [08:49] TheMuso! [08:49] TheMuso: Duh, that's what Telstra does. [08:49] so it goes on not being fixed === highvoltage [n=highvolt@196.1.61.16] has joined #ubuntu-motu [08:49] Fujitsu: its not gonna be me.. would take me a while to learn how to package [08:49] Fujitsu: Damn right.

[08:59] this is what gentoo suports, and secondlife works with alsa.. right now it is using OSS. you can imagine the pain [08:59] Hm, isn't SecondLife's source available, so amd64 builds are possible? [09:00] yuck [09:00] so fix it, or actualy help someone else fix it, not complain and say that so-and-so does this or that [09:00] Fujitsu: they do not distribute the binary blobs.. if you compiled the source, it would be slower in many ways [09:00] *binary blob libraries [09:01] wolfeon, why are you trying to run secondlife on a 64bit kernel anyhow is the better question, the only programs that will take advantage of larger memory addressing are server apps and second life isnt server [09:01] anyhow this is all getting way way off topic [09:01] imbrandon: I have a desktop with 6 gigs of mem :) [09:02] 32bit with pae if great [09:02] is* [09:02] noo thank you [09:02] imbrandon: That's what I would have thought PAE was for.

[09:10] RAOF: there really isn't anythign left but packaging up 32bit libraries [09:10] (At least on x86, other archs have an actual performance reason for mixing 32& 64bit code) [09:11] wolfeon: that's the nasty hack I was talking about earlier [09:11] ajmitch: I know :))) [09:11] the hack is what I've done before in genpoo [09:11] so saying that there really isn't anything left, is a bit inaccurate [09:11] good riddens to it :) [09:12] ajmitch: a hack is better than nothing === hoora_ [i=ariel@gateway/tor/x-721fcf0f20e3f280] has joined #ubuntu-motu [09:12] wolfeon, thats a matter of opinion, but no imho a hack is not better than nothing [09:12] in this case === TheMuso sighs [09:12] Finally got through email.

[09:13] cool [09:13] See my comment to Fujitsu earlier. [09:13] Overall well, but our monopoly telco screwed up our line, so we weren't able to get DSL going till today. [09:14] ahh [09:14] bbiaf === Lure_ [n=lure@external-7.hermes.si] has joined #ubuntu-motu [09:16] Their monopoly is sort of being reduced a bit, but they still control every piece of telecommunications copper going into residential areas. [09:16] just like telecom on this side of the ditch [09:17] we just got number portability here [09:17] at least the government is splitting up telecom this year [09:18] Have you sold your monopoly telecom? [09:18] Our government isn't splitting ours up... it's just selling it off. [09:18] oh telecom went private years ago [09:18] Because that always seemed like a stupid idea to me "No, of *course* they won't abuse their monopoly. We'll be watching them *really closely*" [09:18] Fujitsu: are you finding that any w.u.c page is taking forever to load? [09:18] So we're going to have a fully privatised corporation controlling all the last-mile copper in the country, as well as being an ISP and content provider. === coNP [n=conp@unaffiliated/conp] has joined #ubuntu-motu [09:19] the government is finally at the stage of being fed up & forcing them to split [09:19] Hobbsee: wiki? I haven't tried it in an hour or so. [09:19] so we're a few years ahead of .au in that sense [09:19] Hobbsee: nope [09:19] Fujitsu: can you? [09:19] ajmitch: You sure they're not going to somehow succeed in an appeal, like MSFT? [09:19] Burgundavia: yes, but you're not australian [09:19] Hobbsee: I'll try now. [09:19] Fujitsu: great [09:19] Hobbsee: yes, I still have my sanity, thanks :) [09:20] About 5 seconds, which is a little slower than normal [09:20] The area where I am now probably won't see DSL2+ available for another year at least, if not more. [09:20] Ok. Time to do a fresh reinstall on a box. [09:21] Fujitsu: no, telecom gets to submit an alternate plan, but that's about it [09:21] Cable's good, except for only having two ISPs providing it, and the stupid capped upload speed. [09:21] TheMuso: don't worry, we've been promised ADSL2+ "this year" for 2 years now [09:21] ajmitch: That's what everybody thought about Microsoft,.. [09:21] Fujitsu: telecom nz doesn't have the same clout as microsoft [09:22] I don't think any company can be quite as arrogant & powerful as MS at times [09:22] ajmitch: Even so. They'll manage. [09:22] Telstra comes close. [09:22] Fujitsu: right [09:22] ajmitch: Any other companies there decided to install their own DSLAMS? [09:22] TheMuso: they can't yet [09:22] Oh ok. [09:22] TheMuso: still waiting on local loop unbundling to come through [09:22] Lovely. [09:22] which will end up being part of this split of telecom [09:23] a few companies have promised they will [09:23] I loved it when Telstra tried to get permission to roll out some new broadband network that they weren't going to resell. [09:23] but that's a way off [09:23] And when they started selling there own ADSL plans below the wholesale cost.

[10:10] is that correct so far? [10:10] hm... ok. i m all ears [10:10] dqdev: You need to install it in (probably) debian/tmp/usr/share/applications [10:11] and how do I do this installation?

This is than put into a tar.gz and unpacked when you install the .deb. It's i this alternative dir structure, you want to put you .desktop file. [10:12] dqdev: So: [10:13] dqdev: See where the rest of the package install things to. You can try "$(DESTDIR)/usr/share/applications" which is most likely correct. [10:14] OK [10:15] Makes sense?

[04:10] Hobbsee, well, you said you'd bring it to sevilla :) we can check with and without ;) [04:10] other places [04:10] ogra: heh [04:10] Sysinfo for 'LongPointyStick': Linux 2.6.20-15-generic running KDE 3.5.6, CPU: GenuineIntel(R)CPUT2250@1.73GHz at 800 MHz (3458 bogomips), HD: 27/71GB, RAM: 730/1510MB, 123 proc's, 1.42h up [04:11] kkubasik: In debian/control Maintainer should be MOTU. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebianMaintainerField for details. Also package description should not have lines over 80 characters. [04:12] dqdev: You should then have two distinct .dsc's in your cwd [04:12] Hobbsee, KDE ? the Kommon Doom Enhancement ? === ogra hides [04:12] kkubasik: Nevermind about the maintainer comment. Read it wrong. [04:12] Urgh. [04:12] ogra: hah === Hobbsee DOOMs ogra [04:12] okie, ;) [04:13] heh [04:13] StevenK: the .deb just created and the one from the downloaded version? [04:13] ok, fixed the copyright, and the line in the description [04:13] dqdev: Not the .deb, we're talking about source packages, not binary packages. [04:13] kkubasik: I don't know anything about mono, so the technical specifics of the dependencies I have no idea on. [04:13] that's all been through the wringer [04:14] kkubasik: Don't consider fixing my comments as "Your package is good", just that's stuff I could tell needed to be fixed. [04:14] oh, definatly, I know I still need man pages for the tangerine one [04:14] StevenK: yes. i have a newly created .dsc [04:15] dqdev: So now you can run debdiff [04:15] ok [04:15] That will spit out the debdiff to stdout [04:15] So you probably want to redirect it. [04:15] kkubasik: OK, I was gonna suggest a man page... [04:16] kkubasik: I took a quick look at the moodbar package. The diff seems pretty huge at a glance. === gnomonic [n=niels@80.62.135.26] has joined #ubuntu-motu [04:16] Ah hah! [04:16] I have found Hobbsee's story on the Internet [04:16] http://www.ridiculopathy.com/projects/flash/stick2.jpg [04:16] lo [04:16] l [04:18] lol [04:18] haha [04:19] hi spam [04:19] lol [04:19] you know its kind of funny to see in launchpad: "bugs related to Sarah Hobbs" [04:19] jussi01: heh [04:19] Heh [04:24] StevenK: is there a way to write the results of the debdiff command to a file? cause the pic results to a pretty big message [04:25] dqdev: just a guess but you could do > diff.txt (diff.txt is a file where you want the text to be stored) [04:25] not used it before so it may or may not work [04:26] dqdev: debdiff package.v1.dsc package.v2.dsc > pick-a-name.debiff (as Demon012 says). === ScottK meant to type .debdiff there at the end... [04:28] and that\s the file I am uploading in the launchpad??? [04:28] Yes, but look at it first to make sure it's sane. [04:29] If you want someone else to check it, you can post it at pastebin. [04:29] well it looks ok except 2 things [04:29] yes... I ll do that [04:29] so that you can take a look [04:29] the 2 things are [04:30] the picture which looks of course strange [04:30] 2 lines at the end, that I never touched [04:30] let me pastebin it === jekil [n=alessand@host116-234-dynamic.9-87-r.retail.telecomitalia.it] has joined #ubuntu-motu [04:31] hello [04:31] http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17218/ [04:31] hello jekil. [04:32] ScottK: what do you think? [04:33] By the last two lines, do you mean 525 & 526? [04:33] yes [04:33] i dont know what they really are [04:33] but anyway... otherwise? [04:34] do pics look like that? [04:34] Those don't worry about. It's normal for the diff to have a few lines of unmodified text on the end. === ScottK thinks so on the pics, but isn't sure. [04:35] Your updated package needs to have an Ubuntu version number. [04:35] in the changelof [04:35] When you went to modify debian/changelog, how did you do it. [04:35] dch [no arguments] [04:35] dqdev: Yes. Line 5 of your debdiff. [04:35] Ah. [04:36] If you do it dch -i it should set all that up for you.

Do i need to upload anything else in the launchpad, or that's just it? [04:38] All you upload it the corrected debdiff. [04:39] ok! THanks ScottK [04:39] You might want to come back here and have someone look at it again once you've fixed it up. [04:40] ScottK: come back "here". Here? === bersace [n=bersace@81.185.32.107] has joined #ubuntu-motu [04:40] Yes [04:40] Pastebin it again and let someone look it over.

[05:01] http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/17226/ [05:01] and the debian changelog should have a summeray of your changes. Something like "Added .desktop file (LP: #80474)" [05:02] and don't forget to set the distribution to gutsy (replace feisty with gutsy) [05:02] geser: the last 2 that you wrote, do I do them manuyally>? [05:03] dqdev: Yes. [05:03] Manually. [05:03] when you do dch -i you end in an editor where you can edit the changelog and add entries [05:04] and the second is also manually (first line of your changelog) [05:04] dqdev: Sorry if I confused you earlier. [05:05] dch -i gets the formatting/versioning correct.

[05:13] (LP: #80474) [05:13] The IIRC is If I Remember Correctly - I've gotten that wrong before. [05:13] Also, you lines 5 and 6 need to be one line. [05:13] hehehehe [05:13] yes.

[05:37] yes [05:37] when i tried the dch -i , i get this ubuntu1 at the end [05:37] 0.0.6-19ubuntu1 for example [05:37] that's correct [05:37] if someone could take a look? [05:37] http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?upid=4882 [05:38] it's the first ubuntu change to that debian package [05:38] well... then, when i try to install the package [05:38] ketm depends on ketm-data (= 0.0.6-19ubuntu1); however: [05:38] Version of ketm-data on system is 0.0.6-19. [05:38] which I wasnt getting before [05:38] !!! [05:38] is it really necessary this -i argument? [05:38] and this id someone gets a chance [05:38] http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?upid=4881 [05:39] without it, things work [05:40] yes, that -i (= increment version) is necessary [05:40] and how do I treat the dependencies then? [05:40] apt sees only a package as new if the version is greater as the installed one [05:41] the package builds ketm and ketm-data [05:41] just ketm === pochu [n=emilio@131.Red-83-57-165.dynamicIP.rima-tde.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu [05:42] ketm-data is another package [05:42] build from the same source [05:42] a source package can build multiple debs [05:42] ok ok [05:42] i also got ketm-data_0.0.6-19ubuntu1_all.deb [05:43] i ll try to install that first [05:44] ok [05:44] it worked! === grayman [n=grayman@89.0.138.10.dynamic.barak-online.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu [05:45] geser: So, should I upload the debdiff?

[05:53] has archive.u.c recovered? [05:53] my speeds have been fast [05:54] LaserJock: Archive is normally responsive for me today.

[05:54] I pull about 450k/s [05:55] dqdev: The MOTU will set it to fix committed after they upload. [05:55] ok [05:55] Fix committed means in the archive, not to LP. [05:55] Assigned to? [05:55] Nobody. [05:55] I am hoping you get a good crowd laserjock, as in a skilled crowd that can jump into contributing [05:56] subscribe UUS. [05:56] Do NOT assign UUS. [05:56] that's what I did [05:56] Good.

I know it would be great help for newbies. I started documenting my first bug-fix. Here is a preview on the way: [06:05] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Dqdev [06:06] dqdev: This is a very good idea. We need more documentation on how to get started.

[06:32] i hate entirely non-obvious'' things... heheehh [06:32] if this is the first change you're [06:32] making from debian, you need to update debian/control [06:33] to say that the package is now being maintained in ubuntu === Ademan [n=ademan@h-67-101-40-52.snfccasy.dynamic.covad.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu [06:33] ah... [06:33] and how do i do that? [06:33] you edit debian/control [06:34] manually? [06:34] change the existing maintainer field to XSBC-Original-Maintainer [06:34] I believe so (there may be an easier way I'm not aware of) [06:34] and set the maintainer field to UbuntuMOTUDevelopers [06:34] (assuming the package is in universe) [06:34] there's a tool in LP to change it, yeah [06:35] and then? do i create a new debdiff and upload it again to the launch pad? [06:36] Yes. [06:36] is there a way to take down the old file [06:36] You'll also need to update the changelog to mention you changed maintainer to MOTU. [06:36] or I just upload the new one? [06:36] ok [06:36] Just upload the new one. Mention in the comment why you put up the new one. === bersace [n=bersace@81.185.32.107] has joined #ubuntu-motu [06:37] the changelog and control were more frrustrating than fixing the real bug!

There's a tutorial on packaging going on right now in there [06:39] dqdev: I had to upload my first patch 5 times before it was right. Don't feel bad.

[09:59] it also says it build-depends on lynx, and it builds fine without it [09:59] that's just weird === ash211 [n=andrew@user-112174a.dsl.mindspring.com] has joined #ubuntu-motu [10:00] nope, still fails to build under pbuilder after fixing the xutils-dev [10:01] psusi: Same error? === hagi [n=hagi@adsl-62-167-88-222.adslplus.ch] has joined #ubuntu-motu [10:01] yea === hagi [n=hagi@adsl-62-167-88-222.adslplus.ch] has joined #ubuntu-motu === arejay [n=rj@unaffiliated/rj-] has joined #ubuntu-motu [10:07] psusi: According to Launchpad it's to be found somewhere in xorg https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+search?text=Imakefile.c === _czessi [n=Czessi@dslb-088-073-001-172.pools.arcor-ip.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu === YokoZar [n=YokoZar@c-67-188-45-230.hsd1.ca.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu === soothsay [n=soothsay@bas5-montreal02-1096552985.dsl.bell.ca] has joined #ubuntu-motu [10:24] hmm, ive noticed people are treating ubunty as guarenteed software [10:24] If I want to replace an existing package with my own patched version, what steps should I follow? [10:25] soothsay: talk to an motu ;D [10:26] soothsay: Just install it? [10:27] shawarma: And how does apt handle upgrades? Does it mask the package? [10:27] soothsay: Depends on how you versioned it. [10:28] soothsay: You can choose to keep it up-to-date and put your own suffix on the package version or you can just put your version on hold (echo packagename hold | sudo dpkg --set-selections). [10:28] shawarma: Presumably I don't want to automatically upgrade said package (without applying the patches). What should I do? === dabaR [n=dabaR@wnpgmb09dc1-153-182.dynamic.mts.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu [10:28] soothsay: Put it on hold. [10:29] shawarma: Is that an appropriate long term solution? [10:29] soothsay: No. [10:29] soothsay: The appropriate long term solution is to get your patch into the package. [10:29] soothsay: What's it about? === ivoks_ [n=ivoks@17-246.dsl.iskon.hr] has joined #ubuntu-motu [10:31] shawarma: Nothing particular. I use several patches to some packages that are not useful upstream. In gentoo I can handle this with an overlay and package masking. I thought there were similar mechanism in dpkg. [10:32] soothsay: Not really. that sort of thing doesn't fit all that well into the binary package way of doing things. [10:32] soothsay: Do you have an example of one of your patches? [10:33] SIGH, quick question on my dads behalf (wind*** user), would opening up SIP ports on the router present a risk to internet banking? [10:33] soothsay: I'm just curious what is so important that you want to go through the trouble, but not important enough to be shared. :-) [10:33] he keeps them locked from paronoid fear [10:33] sacater: Depends. === esaym [n=user@cpe-72-183-202-162.satx.res.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu-motu [10:33] sacater: What is he using for SIP? [10:33] hi shawarma [10:33] sacater: An ata? [10:33] ajmitch: Ahoy there. [10:34] shawarma: no no, im using a sip client, he just wont unblock those FUDGING ports [10:34] sacater: Software on his Windows machine? [10:34] i can call out [10:34] but people cant call me [10:34] sacater: Ah, it's for *you*? [10:34] moi [10:34] sacater: So the ports will be forwarded to *your* machine, not his? [10:34] in theory yes [10:34] sacater: :-) but? [10:35] hes worried that hackers will come in on those ports and f*** things up on his precious wind*** [10:35] and is pi**** me off [10:35] sacater: The ports will be forwarded to your machine? [10:35] sacater: Not his? [10:35] shawarma: It seems that the 'binary' package way of doing things would at least provide *some* mechanism for managing modified source packages (different compile options, patches, ... etc) [10:35] should be [10:35] sacater: Then there's no problem. === sacater goes to parler avec ma pere [10:36] sacater: If you just configure the router to forward the connections to your machine, there's no problem. === ajmitch watches the language get mangled === ScottK takes one look at #ubuntu-motu and goes back to doing something else. [10:37] shawarma: Have you tried stun [10:37] soothsay: Yes. [10:37] ScottK: wise choice [10:38] soothsay: Well, since "we" (Ubuntu) compile all the packages before they even reach the user's computer, it's kind of hard for the user to change any compile flags. [10:39] shawarma: im back, he says there is, once hackers get into the router, they can try for my machine or his [10:39] :o === RedKrieg [n=RedKrieg@ip68-230-209-186.rd.hr.cox.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu [10:40] shawarma: What about source packages? [10:40] sacater: Well, the point is that they won't get any more "into the router" than they do already. What he'd be enabling is just forwarding for certain things to your machine. If the router is hackable, it's going to be so independently of those port forwardings. [10:40] soothsay: What about them? [10:41] sacater: Not sure you should tell him that, though. [10:41] shawarma: Those aren't compiled before hand [10:41] sacater: He sounds like the kind of guy who would suffer an aneurism if he realised that. [10:41] soothsay: Right. Also, they're not automatically updated. [10:42] soothsay: You are of course free to disable all the deb lines from your sources.list and fetch sources instead an compile them. [10:42] soothsay: You're just going to be missing out on all the automatic update goodness. [10:42] sacater: find some writing that explains what you guys are talking about, how forwarding ports to one machine does not jeopardize the other machines, and have your dad read it, and change his mind [10:44] shawarma: Aha. So downloading the source package, building and installing the deb will install the package (and registered with dpkg) and not automatically update (for that single package)? [10:44] soothsay: to be perfectly honest: If your patches are really so esoteric that noone else could benifit from them, it seems like your attacking your problem in the wrong way. === redkrieg_ [n=RedKrieg@ip68-230-209-186.rd.hr.cox.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu [10:44] soothsay: Yes. [10:44] soothsay: Er... No. [10:44] soothsay: Heh.. === zorglu_ [n=zorglub@165.43.102-84.rev.gaoland.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu [10:44] shawarma: ? [10:45] soothsay: If you still have the binary archives in your sources.list and a new version turns up, apt-get will install it on your first upgrade. [10:45] soothsay: If you remove the binary repositories from your sources.list, nothing is going to be automagically updated. [10:45] shawarma: Is that like shooting a fly with a cannon? [10:46] s/shooting/killing [10:46] soothsay: More like trying to screw in a screw with a hammer. [10:46] soothsay: It works, but it's just not right. [10:46] Isn't that how you are supposed to screw in screws? [10:46] bddebian: If all you got is a hammer.. [10:46] ajmitch: poor me? [10:47] siretart: you get to share a room with me at UDS for a week [10:47] heh, theres a delayed response :) [10:47] Screwing in screws with a hammer works better than screwing in a lightbulb with a hammer. [10:47] ajmitch: w00t! :) [10:47] Heya siretart [10:47] ScottK: Good point [10:47] ScottK: Or screwing in screwdrivers with a lightbulb.. === ScottK is old so I know all kinds of wise stuff like that. [10:47] hehe [10:47] lol [10:48] dabaR: shawarma: easier said than done, he has read to many web reviews [10:48] blame us innocent hackers :o [10:48] he emailed his mate at BT about it [10:48] ajmitch: probably we'll visit many BoFs together, so sharing one room seems a good idea to me! cool! :) [10:49] siretart: yeah, what time do you arrive in seville? [10:49] probably get a co-operate 'use our blah-blah' response [10:49] corperate* === ScottK waits to be pointed to the Automatix source code (in other screwy news) http://forums.pcworld.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=31313#31313 [10:49] corporate, actually. :-) [10:50] Not that it matters. [10:50] ajmitch: May 6, 1640 arrives the plane on sevilla [10:50] may 5, that is [10:50] siretart: may 6? I thought it should be the 5th? [10:51] mistyped [10:51] ssh is quite laggy here === dabaR [n=dabaR@wnpgmb09dc1-153-182.dynamic.mts.net] has left #ubuntu-motu [] === dabaR [n=dabaR@wnpgmb09dc1-153-182.dynamic.mts.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu [10:51] ok :) === ajmitch will get into the airport at about 2310, may 5 [10:51] siretart, ajmitch: We should exchange phone number so that we can hook up saturday night. I arrive at around 2100, I think. [10:51] wow, that's late [10:51] yeah [10:51] so I'll be getting in & sleeping [10:52] Boring. [10:52] :-p [10:52] shawarma: long flight [10:52] ajmitch: and I'd expect you to be quite jetlagged. what time is it for you right now? [10:52] It's not like you've been doing much for the last 30 hours. [10:52] 8:52am [10:52] That's mad. [10:52] on tuesday === bddebian sneaks into ajmitch's luggage [10:53] *THAT'S* mad. [10:53] shawarma: you're right, I'll just be sitting down most of the 30 hours :) [10:53] bddebian: sorry, I'm not flying via the US [10:53] bastage [10:54] It's weird. I consider myself a pretty smart person, but that I can sit here and chat with people who are already at Tuesday just fucks with my head. [10:54] heh [10:54] ajmitch: wow. so you're just getting up at the time you'll arrive [10:55] shawarma: I'm used to everyone being behind [10:55] siretart: oh I can adjust my sleep schedule to match, that's ok ;) [10:56] ajmitch: I'm just glad I'm not where you are. If I were in Kiwiland and I talked to someone in L.A. or similar $TZ, my head would blow up. === schultmc [i=schultmc@nat/progeny/x-13f5bad3879a63cb] has joined #ubuntu-motu [10:56] ajmitch: How can they always be at yesterday? === schultmc [i=schultmc@nat/progeny/x-a8561158e15cb8dc] has joined #ubuntu-motu [10:56] quite simple, really === schultmc [i=schultmc@nat/progeny/x-a30c582a81f01b10] has joined #ubuntu-motu [10:57] ajmitch: No way, man. The date line creeps me out. [10:58] The date line at 180 degrees longitude, of course. Not the kind of date line you call when you're lonely. [11:03] wahooo! [11:03] Totally! [11:03] my sparc is delievered [11:03] Er.. [11:03] \o/ ! [11:03] LaserJock: so sparky is not good enough? [11:03] jk ;) [11:04] Damn, LaserJock gets a Sparc and I lot my Feisty laptop :'-( [11:04] Grr s/lot/lost/ [11:05] bddebian: what happened? [11:05] bddebian: lost? === fredix [n=fredix@86.67.45.203] has joined #ubuntu-motu [11:06] siretart: well, my own personal sparking is a bit more fun [11:06] Had to take it back to the office. We've had a freakin' rash of stolen and broken laptops at work so I had to give my second one up :-( [11:06] aw [11:07] LaserJock: I can imagine :) === ajmitch wouldn't mind another machine or two at home, if it weren't for the noise & lack of room === arejay [n=rj@unaffiliated/rj-] has joined #ubuntu-motu === jwhitlark [n=jwhitlar@h-67-102-70-2.snfccasy.covad.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu === RedKrieg [n=RedKrieg@ip68-230-209-186.rd.hr.cox.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu [11:16] bddebian: so a co-worker uses now your feisty installation?

[11:29] only if you have a really quiet box anyway [11:29] well, my only noise on normal load now comes from the cpu :) [11:29] s/cpu/psu/ [11:30] if you're willing to run hot, sure [11:30] tsmithe: Because that's what pays my bills [11:31] but if you have several hard drives in a system, it pushes the heat & noise level up a little [11:31] bddebian, poor guy :) [11:31] yep. but it's not gonna get above 50 degrees C without a fan on [11:32] so it generally stays below that [11:33] and when you get several running at once, it starts to add up [11:34] hmm yea [11:34] ah well, i'm off to bed [11:34] night all :0 [11:34] *:) === fowlduck [n=nate@205.213.123.16] has joined #ubuntu-motu === jdong [n=jdong@ubuntu/member/jdong] has joined #ubuntu-motu === JanC [n=janc@lugwv/member/JanC] has joined #ubuntu-motu [11:56] Later gang
