| === persia thinks we need a better way to "reserve" merges being investigated so that e.g. crimsun's ninja skills don't cause dual uploads :) | ||
| TheMuso | persia: Well there is what geser does for uus stuff, mark as in progress, assign to him, and set to wishlist. | 02:27 |
| TheMuso | I am going to start doing that for uus stuff in the future. | 02:27 |
| persia | TheMuso: I've been doing that as well, but I don't think it's formal yet, and I don't think all UUS does that. StevenK also suggested that UUS should be unsubscribed whenever a package is being touched, to reduce the queue size (that's how it went from ~130 to ~80 a few days ago). | 02:29 |
| TheMuso | Right. | 02:29 |
| Hobbsee | ie, if a specific motu is working on the package, there's no need for it to be on the u-u-s list | 02:30 |
| Hobbsee | because all the u-u-s list is, is for people to pick stuff up, and upload it if it's sane | 02:30 |
| TheMuso | So I guess we unsubscribe uus, and subscribe ourselves so we can keep on working on the bug with the person who uploaded the diff. | 02:31 |
| === persia considers unsubscribing all the "Confirmed" SYNC bugs, and subscribing the ACKer. | ||
| persia | TheMuso: That's what I've been doing. For things that need a lot of work, I've also been setting the mentor flag, to provide extra indication that the person working on it should contact me with questions. | 02:32 |
| Hobbsee | persia: i probably wouldnt bother - just because it creates more mail | 02:32 |
| TheMuso | We should also discourage the use of the requestsponsor script | 02:32 |
| Hobbsee | what's wrong with that? | 02:32 |
| persia | Hobbsee: Thanks. That's why I mentioned it here. As we evolve best practices, the queue will naturally shorten :) | 02:33 |
| TheMuso | Hobbsee: It can't attach debdiffs as attachments. | 02:33 |
| TheMuso | THe diff is inline. | 02:33 |

| TheMuso | RAOF: Let me test build/upload a merge, and I'll take a look. | 03:32 |
| Hobbsee | RAOF: how confident are you about it? | 03:32 |
| RAOF | Hobbsee: It works for me, but so did the previous version :). I haven't built a i386 version, and that was where the problems were. | 03:34 |
| Hobbsee | TheMuso: id' just upload it, if RAOF thinks it's right | 03:34 |
| Hobbsee | it's got enough breakage that on the balance of probability, a bit of possible breakage will merely be a blip on the radar | 03:35 |
| RAOF | Unless you've got an i386 system lying around! I'd like to see whether or not it actually works on i386 :) | 03:35 |
| === RAOF needs to wire up his pbuilders to produce both i386 & amd64 packages, so he can feed his i386 VM | ||
| === Hobbsee does, but doesnt want to corrupt her system :P | ||
| RAOF | On the other hand, Hobbsee is right. No one on i386 will notice if it *still* doesn't work :) | 03:36 |
| TheMuso | RAOF: How do you produce the problems? I have i386 here, and could probably test. | 03:37 |
| RAOF | TheMuso: You try to run it, and it doesn't work, IIRC. | 03:37 |
| RAOF | Other options include: you try to play a video in it, and it crashes, or you try to play a video in it, and it doesn't have sound. | 03:38 |
| TheMuso | Hobbsee: Feel free to upload if you want something to do. Stil working on a merge here. | 03:38 |
| Hobbsee | i'm attempting to find sutff here. | 03:38 |
| TheMuso | Ok. | 03:38 |

| Nafallo | "works" ;-) | 03:45 |
| Nafallo | current package defaults to libmad AFAIK :-P | 03:45 |
| RAOF | At least it doesn't use non-public, deprecated DBUS api, some of which has been actually removed. And what's wrong with libmad? | 03:45 |

| === RAOF has a computer from the future! | ||
| TheMuso | mwolson: Is this with RAOF's merge? | 04:16 |
| RAOF | Now that I've found the homestarrunner.com rss feed, I may actually *use* democracy, rather than just fixing the packaging :) | 04:16 |
| mwolson | TheMuso: yes | 04:17 |
| TheMuso | mwolson: Thanks for the heads up. | 04:17 |
| RAOF | mwolson: How do you trigger this bug, just to make sure it's i386 only. | 04:17 |
| === TheMuso notes that he hasn't uploaded yet. | ||
| mwolson | RAOF: start democracyplayer, play a video, once end of video is reached, crash occurs and democracyplayer exits | 04:18 |
| mwolson | The program 'gecko' received an X Window System error. | 04:18 |
| mwolson | This probably reflects a bug in the program. | 04:18 |

| DaSkreech | they said to ask here if Flashplugin should throw that error | 04:26 |
| Nafallo | they are clearly wrong. they should know that flashplugin-nonfree is in multiverse and so should be authenticated through Releases.gpg | 04:27 |
| superm1 | DaSkreech, you may have a third party repository providing the package, make sure sources.list is clean | 04:27 |
| Nafallo | anyway. what I said should fix it or you have a 3rd party repo :-) | 04:27 |

| TheMuso | Right | 04:39 |
| RAOF | Intriguing. libltdl3 is totally broken (as in, the package is empty except for /usr/doc). Hello, launchpad! | 04:39 |

| TheMuso | Or do you want to work on these probs? | 04:39 |
| superm1 | TheMuso, once your finished with democracy, will you have a few min for a revu? | 04:39 |
| TheMuso | superm1: Perhaps. I want to get some lunch, and I intend to start doing non-ubuntu stuff afterwards, but I'll see. | 04:39 |
| superm1 | K | 04:40 |
| RAOF | TheMuso: You might as well upload it. I'm not sure how to fix it, so I'm unlikely to be able to fix it soon. Having the merged package in there will allow other people to fix it, if the feel like it :). | 04:40 |
| TheMuso | RAOF: Ok. | 04:40 |

| Hobbsee | where's hte new flat? | 06:35 |
| ajmitch | a blazing fast 1.5Mbps? | 06:35 |
| RAOF | Kensington, practically opposite UNSW | 06:35 |

| RAOF | Ya. It is actually possible to get adsl2+ in Sydney :) | 06:35 |

| RAOF | Quite true. au.archive.ubuntu.com manages >= 1MB/sec, though. | 06:36 |
| === ajmitch is still waiting for telecom here to manage adsl2+ | ||
| === RAOF wonders if telstra actually has any adsl2+ anywhere yet. And whether it charges $1000 for it. | ||
| Hobbsee | RAOF: yes, but au.archive.u.c *sucks* | 06:38 |
| Hobbsee | use the mirror @ planet or whatever it is | 06:38 |
| RAOF | Oooh, there's a better one? Awesome. | 06:38 |

| Treenaks | Burgundavia: that's misleading... it doesn't include the (required) phone line | 06:40 |
| Burgundavia | still | 06:40 |
| Burgundavia | assuming you want to go with a bundle, it is a good price | 06:40 |
| Treenaks | true | 06:40 |
| Burgundavia | none of the bundles here in Canada are that good | 06:40 |
| Fujitsu | And Australia doesn't come even slightly close. | 06:40 |
| Treenaks | We have some (cheap) ISPs here that give you speeds like that for that price.. | 06:40 |
| Burgundavia | most of time it is about a 20% reduction, no worth the extra cost of getting useless crap | 06:40 |
| Treenaks | they're mostly shit though :) | 06:40 |
| ajmitch | hello Burgundavia | 06:41 |
| Burgundavia | hey ajmitch | 06:41 |
| ajmitch | how was your week around madrid? | 06:42 |
| Burgundavia | excellent, save the trip back to Sevilla | 06:44 |
| Treenaks | Burgundavia: next time, get a rebookable ticket; ) | 06:45 |
| ajmitch | yes, that would be a bit of a pain | 06:45 |
| Burgundavia | Treenaks: I didn't book it | 06:45 |
| ajmitch | did you end up standing outside the airport for several hours? | 06:45 |

| Hobbsee | nope, not that | 07:05 |
| crimsun | arch-specific? | 07:05 |
| Burgundavia | Hobbsee: you were discussing something to with core dev and new procedures that you "didn't have time to object to" | 07:05 |
| Burgundavia | archives are busy failing me | 07:05 |
| Hobbsee | crimsun: no. far more idiotic than that | 07:06 |
| crimsun | wrong dsc? :-) | 07:06 |
| Hobbsee | Burgundavia: right. LaserJock and myself were thinking about core dev, and then discovered that one had to be proposed, rather than propose oneself | 07:06 |
| Hobbsee | crimsun: nope. | 07:06 |
| Hobbsee | crimsun: just that i suck at using ls | 07:06 |
| Burgundavia | Hobbsee: ahh | 07:06 |
| Burgundavia | Hobbsee: rationale? | 07:06 |
| ajmitch | Hobbsee: that's not how I understood things to be | 07:06 |

| Burgundavia | Hobbsee: needing to be proposed | 07:07 |
| Hobbsee | ah right | 07:07 |
| Hobbsee | not sure. those were the rules put into place | 07:08 |
| LaserJock | well, I was trying to get a quicky core-devship | 07:08 |
| ajmitch | LaserJock: trying to sneak in the backdoor, you mean :) | 07:08 |
| LaserJock | well, it's handy having everybody there, that's all | 07:08 |
| Burgundavia | shouldn't be hard to get somebody to propose you | 07:08 |
| LaserJock | and oli was eager for it ;-) | 07:09 |
| LaserJock | well, it's not exactly "propose" | 07:09 |
| LaserJock | mdz want the MC to take the app and review the person and pass on a recomendation to the TB | 07:09 |
| LaserJock | the rationale being that the TB doesn't work with potential core-devs much | 07:09 |
| ajmitch | which is different from someone being nominated for core-dev | 07:10 |
| Burgundavia | ahh | 07:10 |
| LaserJock | well, the MC nomincates with a recommendation | 07:10 |
| ajmitch | the MC doesn't work with every potential core-dev member much | 07:10 |
| === AstralJava [n=jaska@cm-087-94-108-212.lohjanpuhelin.fi] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| LaserJock | the proplem was that it was just mdz telling oli | 07:10 |
| crimsun | right, taking an app is quite different from evaluating a nomination | 07:10 |
| LaserJock | which meant me asking daniel | 07:10 |
| ajmitch | nothing has been decided yet, afaik | 07:11 |
| LaserJock | which lead to daniel asking matt | 07:11 |
| ajmitch | apart from whatever mdz wishes to happen | 07:11 |
| Burgundavia | anyway, sleeping now | 07:11 |
| ajmitch | lazy | 07:11 |
| Hobbsee | heh, goodnight | 07:11 |
| LaserJock | in the end "we're working on it" | 07:11 |
| Hobbsee | Burgundavia: basically that hte procedure is unclear, so no one's attempting to go thru it | 07:11 |
| LaserJock | but it better not take as long as CC/TB votes ;-) | 07:11 |
| crimsun | once there's a TB-approved protocol, things will move quickly | 07:12 |
| LaserJock | sure | 07:12 |
| crimsun | MC has been fast WRT turnaround for most MOTU applicants | 07:12 |

| Hobbsee | you're expected to fix the world | 07:12 |

| ajmitch | we're still waiting on someone to put forward a time for the next meeting, since we're overdue | 07:18 |
| LaserJock | for an MC meeting? | 07:18 |
| Hobbsee | crimsun: it worries me how much we police our MOTU's, when they're expected to be responsible. the SRU process is one of them | 07:18 |
| ajmitch | LaserJock: for a MOTU meeting - we decided months ago not to have separate meetings | 07:19 |
| LaserJock | ah | 07:19 |
| crimsun | Hobbsee: what about the [revised] SRU process do you think is cumbersome? | 07:19 |
| ajmitch | you want the SRU process changed yet again? | 07:19 |
| ajmitch | about the only way it could be less policed would be if it were a total free-for-all | 07:19 |
| Hobbsee | sorry, s/SRU/UVF/ | 07:20 |
| Hobbsee | too many acronyms | 07:20 |
| LaserJock | well, the old SRU policy might be an example | 07:20 |
| ajmitch | so you want any motu to be able to ignore UVF at his/her discretion? | 07:20 |
| Hobbsee | ajmitch: then again, if our MOTU's were all sensible and trustworthy, the free-for-all wouldnt be a problem, because there would be nothing insane going into hte archive. *shrug* | 07:21 |
| ajmitch | and you know that doesn't happen | 07:21 |
| Hobbsee | yes. see the "if" there. | 07:21 |
| ajmitch | so what problems are there with the UVF process? | 07:21 |
| crimsun | ok, so does the motu-uvf do too much policing? | 07:22 |
| Hobbsee | there's so much work to be done - and how much time is going into motu-uvf stuff? | 07:22 |
| Hobbsee | i'm not convinced that that time cant better be spent in other areas | 07:22 |
| === jsgotangco [n=jsg123@ubuntu/member/jsgotangco] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| ajmitch | not very much time, really | 07:23 |
| Hobbsee | (is the long and the short of it - i've never been terribly eloquent, which is one of the reasons i avoid ML's :P ) | 07:23 |
| LaserJock | well, I don't know that it's na issue of time | 07:23 |
| ajmitch | hence why there are 5 members of the team | 07:23 |
| LaserJock | it's an issue of should people be MOTUs if they have to be "policed" all the time | 07:23 |
| crimsun | ok, so are you saying that that one (1) ~motu-uvf member is taking too long? | 07:23 |
| crimsun | [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FreezeExceptionProcess#head-9523bc4076ff011324d67cddc97969ec609618d6 for reference] | 07:24 |
| LaserJock | crimsun: I don't think she is | 07:24 |
| ajmitch | LaserJock: we constantly get pressure to get lots of people involved & into MOTU | 07:24 |
| LaserJock | I think there's a comparison to Debian | 07:24 |
| crimsun | are you saying that ~motu-uvf should go the way of the dodo? | 07:24 |
| ajmitch | and not have the high barriers that debian has | 07:24 |
| LaserJock | right | 07:25 |
| Hobbsee | crimsun: i'm not sure. | 07:25 |
| LaserJock | that's what the debate comes down to | 07:25 |
| LaserJock | should we keep the "barrier" (I prefer something more along skill level) high | 07:25 |
| LaserJock | and risk having too few | 07:25 |
| LaserJock | or lower the barrier but have to do a lot more "policing" | 07:26 |
| crimsun | WRT "barrier" - I think it's pretty reasonable currently, but I'm biased. | 07:26 |
| LaserJock | it used to be that a MOTU could basically do anything in Universe, much like a DD in Debian | 07:26 |
| Hobbsee | LaserJock: i think losing that is a great tragedgy | 07:26 |
| LaserJock | although admitidly those were some more "wild" days | 07:27 |
| crimsun | so what has changed that ~motu can't "basically do anything"? | 07:27 |
| === Hobbsee was planning to bring more of this up at UDS, incidently. | ||
| ajmitch | wilder days when fewer people used ubuntu, too | 07:27 |
| LaserJock | yep | 07:27 |
| === Fujitsu [n=william@ubuntu/member/fujitsu] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| LaserJock | SRUs were trivial | 07:27 |
| ajmitch | SRUs barely existed back then | 07:27 |
| LaserJock | you didn't have to go through anybody first | 07:27 |
| StevenK | A DD can apparently do anything in Debian, but there is a social cost, not a technical one. | 07:28 |
| LaserJock | yep | 07:28 |
| ajmitch | a MOTU could ignore UVF if they wanted as well | 07:28 |
| LaserJock | sure | 07:28 |
| StevenK | Exactly. | 07:28 |
| crimsun | ok, seriously, what problems do you see with the current Universe SRU protocol? | 07:28 |
| Hobbsee | i think the SRU process is fine - there certainly needs to be some form of decent testing in there | 07:28 |
| ajmitch | debian has far stricter freezes than ubuntu does | 07:28 |
| Hobbsee | nto that iv'e done one since the new lot | 07:28 |
| LaserJock | crimsun: not much with the current one. My issue is how long it took to get here and the number of times we had to change it | 07:29 |
| ajmitch | if you're going to compare with debian, DDs end up being far more limited | 07:29 |
| StevenK | I haven't either, so I'm not going to comment. | 07:29 |
| ajmitch | LaserJock: well we're not perfect | 07:29 |
| LaserJock | no, that's certainly understandable | 07:29 |
| ajmitch | I threw out an initial proposal because noone could agree on anything | 07:29 |
| crimsun | LaserJock: ok, so we're there now, and unfortunately, it may need to change as Ubuntu grows. | 07:30 |
| LaserJock | and at the time i said somthing like "well, we can always change it later" | 07:30 |
| ajmitch | it was pretty much what main did | 07:30 |
| StevenK | LaserJock: Exactly. You can't say that "it took too long to get here" as a problem with the current proposal. | 07:30 |
| ajmitch | I don't see it as a bad thing that we were able to look at it & change it | 07:30 |
| LaserJock | but it can at times be very difficult in MOTU because policies can fairly rapidly change | 07:30 |
| crimsun | are there issues with the current universe UVF protocol? | 07:31 |
| LaserJock | yes | 07:31 |
| LaserJock | we do to many of them | 07:31 |
| LaserJock | ;-) | 07:31 |
| === ajmitch sighs | ||
| StevenK | LaserJock: It's like saying "It takes too long to get from .au to .uk" and blaming the carrier, not the technology. | 07:31 |
| ajmitch | so there are issues, but they're unspecified, and there's no way to fix them | 07:31 |
| LaserJock | StevenK: no, but I'm saying perhaps we can improve on the way we get there | 07:31 |
| LaserJock | well, one of the biggest issues I see is that we attack Universe as a whole | 07:32 |
| crimsun | LaserJock: ok, how would you characterise the current slowdown in adjusting protocL? | 07:32 |
| StevenK | LaserJock: But that can't be a problem with the current SRU procedure. | 07:32 |
| crimsun | protocol ^ | 07:32 |
| Hobbsee | i susepct UVF is just viewed as red tape to get past | 07:32 |
| LaserJock | crimsun: in general communication problems | 07:32 |
| Hobbsee | not as a way of going "okay, do i really think this fix is needed, vs any other bugs it may bring?" | 07:32 |
| LaserJock | for a while we had like 3 different SRU polices running around the wiki | 07:32 |
| === ajmitch gives up & walks home | ||
| Hobbsee | and i think the number of UVF's show that | 07:33 |
| LaserJock | the thing I see though is people getting launched at large lists | 07:33 |
| LaserJock | without really any prioritization | 07:33 |
| === TheMuso notes that the few UVFs he has filed, have been for good reason. | ||
| LaserJock | UVFs are good, we need them | 07:33 |
| StevenK | I don't remember filing many, either. | 07:33 |
| LaserJock | but I see a lot of "work" in MOTU that's done just because it's on a list | 07:34 |
| Hobbsee | TheMuso: yes, but you're sane | 07:34 |
| LaserJock | it's very difficult to prioritze this stuff | 07:34 |
| LaserJock | I've advocated teams | 07:35 |
| LaserJock | as I think it alows us to break large task lists into chuncks | 07:35 |
| Fujitsu | Teams are a necessary thing, there's just too much stuff around otherwise. But then packages get left behind because they're not in teams. | 07:35 |
| StevenK | And DPL after DPL have advocated them over and over again too. | 07:35 |
| LaserJock | Fujitsu: but I think that can be handled reasonably too | 07:35 |
| StevenK | I personally don't think teams will work for everything which is what some people seem to be advocating. | 07:35 |
| LaserJock | sure, but I think it at least helps | 07:36 |
| crimsun | I concur with StevenK. Teams tend to affect the overall speed at which something is accomplished, not whether that something is accomplished. | 07:36 |
| TheMuso | Since there aren't that many a11y packages in universe, compared to everything else, I'm happy to maintain them solo atm. | 07:36 |
| LaserJock | crimsun: I disagree | 07:36 |
| LaserJock | crimsun: it something isn't prioritized or even known it will almost certainly not get done | 07:37 |
| StevenK | LaserJock: Of course not, but teams don't solve that problem. | 07:37 |
| LaserJock | sure they do | 07:37 |
| StevenK | Okay, how do they? | 07:37 |
| Fujitsu | I monitor all the science bugs. I notice when one is filed. | 07:37 |
| LaserJock | if I have to look after 20 packages rather than 20,000 it makes a big difference | 07:37 |
| StevenK | How can a team solve a bug that it doesn't know about? | 07:37 |
| Fujitsu | Those couple of hundred packages are fairly closely observed. | 07:38 |
| LaserJock | because a team is a natural way to monitor things | 07:38 |
| LaserJock | MOTU Science is the use case I'm most familiar with | 07:38 |
| Fujitsu | A selection of packages is easier to keep track of that 16000. | 07:38 |
| StevenK | But this is the problem. It isn't one MOTU versus entire universe, it's *all of us*. | 07:38 |
| LaserJock | we moniotr 450+ packages | 07:38 |
| LaserJock | sure | 07:38 |
| LaserJock | that's fine | 07:38 |
| LaserJock | but it lends focus to an area | 07:38 |
| jsgotangco | sorry to butt in, but isn't that what team is for, so to focus on a certain area | 07:39 |
| StevenK | But it also leads to neglecting other areas. | 07:39 |
| LaserJock | sure | 07:39 |
| LaserJock | but if the area is important a team will form | 07:39 |
| LaserJock | and there will certainly people who want to work on the "neglected" area | 07:39 |
| StevenK | If LaserJock and Fujitsu only focus on the science packages, it leaves us effectively 2 people short for the rest. And no other teams. | 07:40 |
| jsgotangco | would it be more effective if a team can actually focus on apps that they do now how it works rather than try to cover anything? | 07:40 |
| Fujitsu | I prioritise science packages, but do touch the rest. | 07:40 |
| LaserJock | StevenK: but that's not the way it works | 07:40 |
| StevenK | It's an example, not reality. | 07:40 |
| jsgotangco | s/now/know | 07:40 |
| LaserJock | I prioritize (as Fujitsu has said) on science apps, but I certianly touch others as well | 07:40 |
| LaserJock | but I see every science bug | 07:41 |
| LaserJock | and I can quickly see how things are doing in Science | 07:41 |
| LaserJock | maybe we're the exception to the rule or something | 07:41 |
| LaserJock | but it seems like a very "Ubuntu" way to do things | 07:41 |
| Hobbsee | the science team seems to do well | 07:42 |
| Hobbsee | kde team doesnt do too badly, either, packagewise - but merge wise is bad | 07:42 |
| Hobbsee | er, s/merge/bugs/ | 07:42 |
| crimsun | that's because all you've done is pruned your namespace | 07:42 |
| crimsun | it's not wrong, per se - in fact, it's quite natural | 07:42 |
| Hobbsee | true | 07:42 |
| Hobbsee | i dont know what the magic solution is | 07:42 |
| crimsun | but it does, as StevenK said, not address the issue of handling 15k packages. | 07:43 |
| Hobbsee | but i think there's certainly a lot of appeal lost when we can no longer say "the sky is the limit" - and i'll admit that concerns me | 07:43 |
| LaserJock | well, in my opinion it helps | 07:43 |
| StevenK | Well, it leaves the rest of us to look after 15k-450 packages. | 07:43 |
| StevenK | Which is a small drop in the bucket. | 07:43 |
| LaserJock | no it doesn't | 07:43 |
| crimsun | LaserJock: it definitely helps smaller namespaces, yes. I do agree. | 07:43 |
| Fujitsu | It helps with the packages under that team, but not the rest. Right. | 07:43 |
| jsgotangco | we just don't have the numbers for now | 07:44 |
| LaserJock | well, I think it could help the rest | 07:44 |
| LaserJock | giving people a place to plug into MOTU | 07:44 |
| Hobbsee | but there's no lifelong dedication to maintain packages for a specific team, forever. or indeed at all | 07:44 |
| LaserJock | and get mentorship | 07:44 |
| jsgotangco | if we had the numbers, the teams would work nicely | 07:44 |
| LaserJock | will help MOTU as a whole | 07:44 |
| Hobbsee | LaserJock: no it doesnt to what, sorry? | 07:44 |
| crimsun | leaves the rest of us to look after 15k-450 packages | 07:44 |
| crimsun | ^ | 07:44 |
| LaserJock | yes | 07:45 |
| StevenK | Apparently. | 07:45 |
| Hobbsee | right, yes | 07:45 |
| StevenK | I'm unconvinced. | 07:45 |
| LaserJock | well, IMO and I could be wrong, but not all Universe package should be treated alike | 07:45 |
| LaserJock | we *have* to prioritize our work | 07:45 |
| Hobbsee | indeed | 07:46 |
| StevenK | And who's to decide which packages should have priority? | 07:46 |
| Hobbsee | i've got the feeling that MOTU has bitten off way more they can chew, and i'm not sure where the cutbacks should be | 07:46 |
| LaserJock | because we can't handle all of Universe to a satisfactory level (although that is I guess debatable) | 07:46 |
| jml | StevenK: me :) | 07:46 |
| LaserJock | StevenK: interest of course | 07:46 |
| Hobbsee | StevenK: interest, i guess. | 07:46 |
| Fujitsu | Hobbsee: Waaay more. | 07:46 |
| StevenK | *Everybody* is going to biased. | 07:46 |
| LaserJock | sure | 07:46 |
| StevenK | going to be | 07:46 |
| LaserJock | but if you get enough then they are all working ;-) | 07:46 |
| crimsun | ok, so popcon results are one metric. | 07:46 |
| crimsun | Are there other effective ones? | 07:46 |
| StevenK | popcon results don't work, IMO | 07:46 |
| LaserJock | well, as I'm saying, teams | 07:46 |
| Hobbsee | is that a problem, though? that hte packages that we're not interested in are just straight syncs from deiban, wher ehopefully someoen cares about them there? | 07:47 |
| Hobbsee | i meant developer interest, and some teams, not user interest | 07:47 |
| crimsun | do LP bug reports correspond roughly to popcon rankings? | 07:47 |
| LaserJock | hmm, I'm not sure | 07:47 |
| StevenK | I daresay that is already happening, though. A whole bunch of packages are synced, worked and are never touched. | 07:47 |
| Fujitsu | crimsun: That's a lot of screenscraping. | 07:47 |
| Hobbsee | StevenK: and a fair few ones new to ubuntu, whcih are now out of date | 07:47 |
| StevenK | s/worked/work/ | 07:47 |
| Hobbsee | or like the tex ones (used to be?), which we're not getting the fix in time for | 07:48 |
| Hobbsee | no idea what's happening now though, with them | 07:48 |
| StevenK | I mean, even MoM shows that. More than 75% of universe is unmodified from Debian. | 07:48 |
| ajmitch | LaserJock: how do teams correspond to problems with UVF? | 07:48 |
| Hobbsee | crimsun: not when you have packages which are Krap, like democracyplayer | 07:48 |
| StevenK | Ah, the KDE definition of crap. | 07:48 |
| LaserJock | ajmitch: policing | 07:48 |
| === StevenK hides. | ||
| ajmitch | LaserJock: you'll need to be more verbose than that | 07:49 |
| LaserJock | essentially, I feel like we do sometimes have a bit too much generalization | 07:49 |
| LaserJock | we need it for sure | 07:49 |
| LaserJock | but we need people who know the packages as well | 07:49 |
| TheMuso | Ins ome ways, I wish more people wanted to get involved with packaging who lirk on the a11y lists, but on the other hand, I'm happy to work on everything myself. :) | 07:49 |
| === Hobbsee beats StevenK | ||
| StevenK | Ouch! | 07:49 |
| crimsun | Hobbsee: right. By that indication, democracyplayer is a fairly popular package. (I'd be inclined to agree.) | 07:49 |
| Fujitsu | There are about 1400 with Ubuntu modifications, and 500 (-shudder-) that are new. That's still a lot. | 07:49 |
| LaserJock | if team leaders can sort of mentore/lead a team that spreads the load around | 07:50 |
| LaserJock | and makes it so it isn't just a few people that end up doing most of the work | 07:50 |
| === TheMuso looks at the number of people in here, and wonders how many of the lirkers can be convinced to help out. | ||
| StevenK | TheMuso: lurkers | 07:51 |
| TheMuso | StevenK: bah of course | 07:51 |
| crimsun | let me just interject that leading a team doesn't necessarily lead to more people doing most of the work | 07:51 |
| LaserJock | no | 07:51 |
| === RAOF was convinced by actually wanting something in Universe, and by REVU being very approachable | ||
| LaserJock | that's true | 07:51 |
| === predius [n=predius@190.8.154.185] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| StevenK | And may lead to burnout of the leader. | 07:51 |
| Hobbsee | what i'm wondering though, is if we have no interest in a certain package, why are we modifying it? why not leave it to debian, and focus on other things? | 07:52 |
| LaserJock | well, I don't know, it just seems very logical to me | 07:52 |
| TheMuso | SPeaking of teams, and bugmail, has anybody worked out a good way to filter email from LP using procmail? | 07:52 |
| TheMuso | Hobbsee: I wish I could do that with a11y. | 07:52 |
| Fujitsu | TheMuso: What do you want to do with it? | 07:52 |
| LaserJock | "tackling Universe as a whole is not always working that well" -> "let's break it up into logical chuncks" | 07:52 |
| Hobbsee | LaserJock: +1 | 07:52 |
| TheMuso | Fujitsu: Filter separate team email into mailboxes, i.e teams that don't use a ml for mail. | 07:53 |
| ajmitch | LaserJock: people have been trying to do that for awhile | 07:53 |
| LaserJock | it's certianly not the only answer | 07:53 |
| Fujitsu | TheMuso: There's a new bit at the bottom that says that, but I'm not sure how I'd parse that | 07:53 |
| LaserJock | ajmitch: but not very successfully | 07:53 |
| TheMuso | Fujitsu: Yeah I know. | 07:53 |
| ajmitch | LaserJock: so suggest how it should be done then | 07:53 |
| LaserJock | I'm not really sure | 07:53 |
| LaserJock | as I said, MOTU Science seems to work fairly well, I'm not sure why | 07:54 |
| crimsun | it's pretty clear why. It's a limited namespace. | 07:54 |
| ajmitch | why should the UVF team take a hands-off approach because the people in a team 'only' have 500 packages to look after? | 07:54 |
| LaserJock | I mean, it just seems better than the alternative to me | 07:54 |
| jsgotangco | it has a composition of people interested in certain packages | 07:54 |
| LaserJock | ajmitch: that's a bit orthogonal to my current discussion | 07:54 |
| Hobbsee | jsgotangco: who are then more likely to actually do things on them, yes | 07:54 |
| ajmitch | LaserJock: right, well I was trying to find out why people were complaining so much about UVF & MOTU being a police state & all | 07:55 |
| LaserJock | but to me, if people are prioritizing on a limited namespace, as crimsun puts it, then they are more likely to make better decisions | 07:55 |
| LaserJock | because they know the packages better, hopefully | 07:55 |
| StevenK | Which might be to the detriment of other packages. | 07:55 |
| Hobbsee | StevenK: which is where we rely on debian | 07:55 |
| LaserJock | my big complaint is that often times people mess around with packages they don't use, don't test, don't even have a clue how to test | 07:55 |
| StevenK | And since your focus is narrowed, you don't notice, and futhermore, don't care. | 07:55 |
| LaserJock | StevenK: honestly fine | 07:56 |
| Hobbsee | who have the people who are interested in them. | 07:56 |
| crimsun | LaserJock: that's trivially clear, yes. The problem is not that carving namespaces isn't effective, it's that we will not - in the near future - gain enough dedicated MOTU to make such an approach effective. | 07:56 |
| LaserJock | if some packages fall through the cracks I really don't care | 07:56 |
| Fujitsu | StevenK: It depends if you want all the packages to be fairly crap, or some packages to be good, and the others maybe slightly worse. | 07:56 |
| StevenK | Hobbsee: But sometimes Debian can't help us, for example, when we hit transitions before them. | 07:56 |
| Hobbsee | StevenK: this is true | 07:56 |
| LaserJock | as long as the ones that we do care about get properly treated | 07:56 |
| jsgotangco | this is still very much a numbers game | 07:56 |
| StevenK | Where we is MOTU Science, or MOTU? | 07:56 |
| LaserJock | MOTU | 07:56 |
| Hobbsee | and it will tned to bring people in, who are motivated to fix their area of interest | 07:57 |
| crimsun | jsgotangco: it will remain such, I'm afraid. | 07:57 |
| === Fujitsu convinces half of Debian to come over here. | ||
| LaserJock | if there isn't enough interest to create a team around something then it can go in the "misc" pile | 07:57 |
| StevenK | And then where is the misc team? | 07:57 |
| LaserJock | and there are always people willing to look at those | 07:57 |
| ajmitch | where 90% of universe == misc | 07:57 |
| LaserJock | possibly | 07:57 |
| StevenK | But that is already the case. | 07:57 |
| Hobbsee | does misc refer to ubuntu-changed packages, or all packages? | 07:58 |
| LaserJock | I'm just advocating expanding our emphasis on teams, that's all | 07:58 |
| LaserJock | not making it mandatory or anything | 07:58 |
| LaserJock | I think all packages | 07:58 |
| LaserJock | but surely if Ubuntu has changed a package we are obligated to maintain that divergence | 07:58 |
| TheMuso | But does a team work better if everybody is a MOTU, or does the team slow down if most are new MOTU hopefuls? | 07:58 |
| LaserJock | well, when I started MOTU Science there were 0 MOTUs in it | 07:59 |
| TheMuso | The thing that worries me about lots of teams, is that its easy to create teams, but unless there are MOTUs who are also interested, the team's progress could be slow. | 07:59 |
| Hobbsee | TheMuso: depends hwo good the sponsorship is | 07:59 |
| crimsun | TheMuso: ubuntu-audio is a good example. A lot of people simply leave the group (not to mention the members who haven't done a thing at all). | 07:59 |
| TheMuso | Sure there are the various sponsors channels, but if there si a big queue, it might take a while for those packages to be looked at,. | 08:00 |
| LaserJock | if people really feel like team maintainence is no good then fine, it was just a suggestion | 08:00 |
| LaserJock | I was just impressed on how well MOTU Science worked out | 08:00 |
| TheMuso | Teams are good. | 08:00 |
| LaserJock | and wanted to see that continue in other areas of MOTU | 08:00 |
| LaserJock | I just feel like we're drowning | 08:00 |
| LaserJock | maybe it's just me being cynical but I don't really forsee MOTU surviving more than a release or two at this pace | 08:01 |
| === TheMuso thought that drowning was a given, until we had at least 200 odd active MOTUs,. | ||
| Hobbsee | LaserJock: i was trying to avoid saying that | 08:01 |
| crimsun | 15k is still a stretch for 200 dedicated MOTU. | 08:01 |
| TheMuso | crimsun: Alright, 500. | 08:02 |
| LaserJock | our user/internal demand seems to be scaling much more rapidly than our ability to keep up with it | 08:02 |
| LaserJock | we get nailed every release for pretty obvious problems | 08:02 |
| TheMuso | LaserJock: By whom? | 08:02 |
| LaserJock | we should have essentially no SRUs | 08:03 |
| LaserJock | because when we release we shouldn't be releasing crap | 08:03 |
| TheMuso | I do remember seeing SRUs that have involved packages that haven't previously been touched. | 08:03 |
| LaserJock | TheMuso: forums/reviewers/users/ourselves | 08:03 |
| jsgotangco | so you're saying we sync pretty much crap | 08:03 |
| LaserJock | no | 08:03 |
| LaserJock | we end up decreasing Debian's quality | 08:03 |
| LaserJock | which is a shame | 08:04 |
| crimsun | we do? | 08:04 |
| LaserJock | yes | 08:04 |
| LaserJock | if you compare Etch to any Ubuntu release | 08:04 |
| TheMuso | Some would probably think that since Debian is so large, its quality has dropped... | 08:04 |
| Hobbsee | if we're doing nothing, then we should be equal. if we're decreasing debian, that's a problem.. | 08:04 |
| LaserJock | we take a snapshot of sid, which at any given time has a fair amount of brokeness | 08:04 |
| TheMuso | I have seen some rpetty shocking debian packages, in terms of maintainability. | 08:04 |
| jsgotangco | LaserJock: surely a thousand+ debian packages in etch are crap | 08:04 |
| LaserJock | but then sid in the mean time fixes problems | 08:05 |
| LaserJock | but we don't pick them up | 08:05 |
| jsgotangco | we don't have grumpy that's why | 08:05 |
| LaserJock | heh | 08:05 |
| TheMuso | pretty even | 08:05 |
| LaserJock | if you look at the RC stats that lucas did | 08:05 |
| === ASCIIGirl [n=mlt@debian/developer/mlt] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| crimsun | can that be alleviated by having autosync run until RC for universe? | 08:06 |
| LaserJock | that would help | 08:06 |
| LaserJock | but it would also introduce more bugs too | 08:06 |
| StevenK | And leave us how long to fix bugs? | 08:06 |
| LaserJock | UVF is good | 08:06 |
| LaserJock | it's just that we need to know what to do exceptions for | 08:06 |
| LaserJock | when we take the snapshot from sid we then need to be careful to pull in the subsequent fixes | 08:06 |
| LaserJock | this happens fairly frequently with TeX packages | 08:07 |
| === Hobbsee wonders what would happen if the sync was on till RC | ||
| Fujitsu | ajmitch's RC bug stuff helped a lot with that. | 08:07 |
| LaserJock | we had and RC bug in Dapper that was fixed in Debian for some months | 08:07 |
| Fujitsu | Hobbsee: The Canonical people would have us murdered, I'd guess. | 08:07 |
| TheMuso | For those of us who used it, yes. | 08:07 |
| LaserJock | and that was for a Main package | 08:07 |
| LaserJock | let alone for Universe | 08:07 |
| Hobbsee | Fujitsu: yay, murder! there's going to be a murder tonight! | 08:07 |
| Fujitsu | There's stuff in main (like TeX) that's barely maintained. | 08:08 |
| Fujitsu | Feisty's TeXLive is a mess. | 08:08 |
| LaserJock | so what we need is to be able to see this stuff | 08:08 |
| LaserJock | that's why I think ajmitch's list was awesome | 08:08 |
| LaserJock | that's the stuff we need to push | 08:08 |
| LaserJock | .desktops are nice, but when push-comes-to-shove we need to fix the "big" stuff before release | 08:09 |
| LaserJock | and that's where I find that focusing down a bit | 08:09 |
| LaserJock | can allow for that | 08:10 |
| LaserJock | it's all a balance I suppose | 08:10 |
| LaserJock | we need some trivial tasks to get Hopefuls up to speed | 08:10 |
| jsgotangco | yeah use big pointy sticks | 08:11 |
| TheMuso | Isn't that was bitesyze/needs packaging tags are for? | 08:11 |
| === jsgotangco hides | ||
| crimsun | ok, so far the one concrete thing to arise is that we should ask for autosync to be extended for Universe | 08:11 |
| TheMuso | Or do you think hopefuls are daunted by the bug system? | 08:11 |
| === Hobbsee spears jsgotangco | ||
| Hobbsee | LaserJock: they seem to have been good | 08:11 |
| LaserJock | TheMuso: yes, but if MOTUs spend most of their time sponsoring them rather than working on RC bugs it's a problem | 08:12 |
| crimsun | RC is probably a bit much. Is Beta more feasible? | 08:12 |
| LaserJock | crimsun: I really don't know about that | 08:12 |
| Fujitsu | RC is definitely too much. | 08:12 |
| === TheMuso thinks even beta is too much,. | ||
| Fujitsu | I'm really not sure about when is better, though. | 08:12 |
| Fujitsu | TheMuso: I think it might be, yes. | 08:12 |
| LaserJock | again, my problem isn't so much timing, but what we do afterwards | 08:13 |
| Fujitsu | It's hard to say,. | 08:13 |
| Hobbsee | this isnt a LTS release, it can be an experiment | 08:13 |
| Hobbsee | next one is the more important | 08:13 |
| LaserJock | the auto sync should at least go to UVF | 08:13 |
| imbrandon | +1 on till beta | 08:13 |
| Fujitsu | Hobbsee: You saw the outrage after Edgy. We can't afford to have an experiment. | 08:13 |
| LaserJock | June 21st is just way to early for Universe | 08:13 |
| Fujitsu | LaserJock: That requires infrastructure to not sync new upstream versions... | 08:13 |
| crimsun | remember that Beta is still one month prior to final. | 08:13 |
| Fujitsu | crimsun: Oh, is it that early? | 08:14 |
| Fujitsu | Hm. | 08:14 |
| Hobbsee | Fujitsu: we equally cant afford to keep having these huge bugs that have been fixed in deiban, irc | 08:14 |
| === Fujitsu checks GutsyReleaseSchedule. | ||
| === Hobbsee cant spell today | ||
| Hobbsee | crimsun: sounds reasonable | 08:14 |
| imbrandon | i think beta is a good target, and Hobbsee *cough* sru *cough* | 08:14 |
| imbrandon | :) | 08:14 |
| Hobbsee | imbrandon: sru what now? | 08:15 |
| === Hobbsee is not sru'able. | ||
| imbrandon | 01:14 < Hobbsee> Fujitsu: we equally cant afford to keep having these huge bugs that have been fixed in deiban, irc | 08:15 |
| LaserJock | bah | 08:15 |
| Hobbsee | oh, yeah, right | 08:15 |
| Fujitsu | imbrandon: We can't just SRU everything. | 08:15 |
| Fujitsu | We have an enormous number of SRUs. | 08:15 |
| LaserJock | I denote a tad bit of sarcasm there ;-) | 08:15 |
| Fujitsu | When they should have been easily fixed prior to release. | 08:15 |
| imbrandon | Fujitsu, no, but "big bugs [..] " we can | 08:15 |
| LaserJock | s/denote/hear/ perhaps is better | 08:15 |
| crimsun | if we target Beta for stopping the autosync for Universe, then we gain 3 months of possible syncable RC bugfixes. | 08:16 |
| Hobbsee | sounds worht having | 08:16 |
| Fujitsu | imbrandon: A lot of these big bugs are tiny fixes. | 08:16 |
| TheMuso | I siply think that since we are spread so thinly, we don't know about problems until users report them sometimes. | 08:16 |
| Fujitsu | crimsun: As well as three months of crack-inducing post-Etch bugs. | 08:16 |
| Fujitsu | s/crack/bugs s/bugs/crack/ | 08:16 |
| Hobbsee | TheMuso: got a solution to that? | 08:16 |
| LaserJock | TheMuso: that's a huge problem | 08:16 |
| TheMuso | Hobbsee: No. | 08:16 |
| Hobbsee | TheMuso: darn. please find one | 08:17 |
| LaserJock | well, moving the autosync is one | 08:17 |
| LaserJock | we need to harness Debian there | 08:17 |
| Fujitsu | We need more users to test, but the release cycles are too short and people are advised to not test until the end. | 08:17 |
| LaserJock | Debian users are reporting bugs and debian maintainers are fixing them | 08:17 |
| LaserJock | (hopefully) | 08:17 |
| TheMuso | How many maintainers regularly work on their packages in Debian? | 08:17 |
| LaserJock | depends on the package of course | 08:17 |
| TheMuso | Yeah I know. | 08:17 |
| LaserJock | but quite a few are pretty responsive | 08:17 |
| Hobbsee | TheMuso: on balance of probability? more than we do. | 08:18 |
| LaserJock | depends on the bug as well | 08:18 |
| crimsun | ok, so I feel we should discuss whether the three months of additional autosync are worth it. | 08:18 |
| TheMuso | Hobbsee: There are more of them. :) | 08:18 |
| crimsun | I feel that it would be. | 08:18 |
| === Hobbsee --> afk for a bit | ||
| Hobbsee | TheMuso: exactly | 08:18 |
| TheMuso | crimsun: So would this be post UVF? | 08:18 |
| Fujitsu | crimsun: I think at least an extra two, but perhaps three. | 08:19 |
| TheMuso | brb getting some fruit... | 08:19 |
| LaserJock | yeah, I'm thinking about that | 08:19 |
| imbrandon | crimsun, i by far feel it would be too | 08:19 |
| Fujitsu | 2 would align with UVF. | 08:19 |
| crimsun | TheMuso: it would effectively kill the current UVF. | 08:19 |
| TheMuso | crimsun: right | 08:19 |
| TheMuso | really brb | 08:19 |
| === jsgotangco nap time | ||
| LaserJock | I would think moving the autosync to UVF would at least be good | 08:19 |
| Fujitsu | We probably can't get any more bugs in by extending it than we have now. | 08:19 |
| crimsun | UVF is currently one month and a few days prior to Beta Freeze | 08:20 |
| crimsun | so asking for autosync to run until UVF would gain nearly two months of syncable fixes/crack | 08:21 |
| LaserJock | well darn it, I gotta get to bed | 08:21 |
| Fujitsu | Night LaserJock. | 08:21 |
| crimsun | are we comfortable with proposing that to Tollef? | 08:21 |
| StevenK | But this might get turned down by the archive admins. | 08:21 |
| TheMuso | I'm sure the rest of the MC/tech board would have something to say... | 08:21 |
| LaserJock | I think autosync till UVF and then getting ajmitch's RC fix scripts rocking well would really help out | 08:22 |
| StevenK | Say, if the autosyncer doesn't care where a package is, be it universe or main. | 08:22 |
| LaserJock | that should be a bug ;-) | 08:22 |
| TheMuso | StevenK: I have a feeling that it doesn't. | 08:22 |
| Fujitsu | StevenK: Well, we'll just have to fix it... Wait, damn. | 08:22 |
| StevenK | Fujitsu: Exactly. | 08:22 |
| LaserJock | we'll just have to go on strike until it's fixed ;-) | 08:22 |
| StevenK | Oh yes, *that'll* help. | 08:23 |
| === imbrandon strikes untill he gets more pringles and mt dew | ||
| LaserJock | anyway, night all. great discussion. please somebody email -motu if there is something concrete to be tossed around | 08:23 |
| Fujitsu | Damn immutable critical infrastructure. | 08:23 |
| StevenK | This is one of the things I find a little irritating about Ubuntu. | 08:23 |
| Fujitsu | StevenK: Which? | 08:23 |
| StevenK | But a lot less irritating than Debian is. | 08:24 |
| crimsun | closed-source nature of critical infrastructure, I presume. | 08:24 |
| Fujitsu | But Debian's isn't closed... | 08:24 |
| Fujitsu | Oh, you mean it doesn't make it as annoying as Debian is overall? | 08:24 |
| StevenK | Fujitsu: The fact that you have us as community members, a big grey cloud, and then the distro team who touch the critical stuff. | 08:24 |
| === TomaszD_ [n=tom@unaffiliated/tomaszd] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| Fujitsu | The distro team, who touch the vast minority of the archive. | 08:25 |
| StevenK | No, I mean that working with Ubuntu even with this irritation is less irritating than working on Debian at all. | 08:25 |
| === fredix [n=fredix@86.67.45.158] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||

| Fujitsu | Well, we're stuck with the proprietary, incapable infrastructure. We just have to work around it as we've done for ever. | 08:28 |
| Fujitsu | It's inconvenient, but I can't see LP becoming all great in the foreseeable future. | 08:28 |
| StevenK | In some ways, Launchpad is better and worse than the Debian infrastructure. | 08:29 |
| Fujitsu | In what ways is it better? | 08:30 |
| === togr-- [n=tom@spiff.phys.uit.no] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| crimsun | hmm, what would we do for packages autosynced in that b-d on newer main packages? | 08:30 |
| TheMuso | crimsun: Good point. | 08:31 |
| imbrandon | crimsun, thats where the problem lies | 08:31 |
| Fujitsu | We replace the autosyncer with a hacked up britney. | 08:31 |
| === viviersf [n=cain@196.44.1.98] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| TheMuso | After all this, I am still pondering whether to apply for Debian maintainer. | 08:33 |
| crimsun | you have nothing to lose and something to gain. | 08:34 |
| Fujitsu | StevenK: What is it that makes Debian so irritating? | 08:34 |
| TheMuso | Very true. | 08:34 |
| StevenK | Fujitsu: Politics. | 08:34 |
| Fujitsu | Irritating politics versus closed, restrictive infrastructure. I think I'd take the former, as it's possible to ignore. | 08:35 |
| imbrandon | Fujitsu, no web interface for bug reports, politics, general slowness on getting a whole distro consinsus , tons of things | 08:35 |
| StevenK | Debian used to be about rough concensus and working code. Now it seems to be about flaming each other to death on mailing lists and arguing about pointless crap. | 08:35 |
| imbrandon | StevenK, +1 | 08:35 |
| crimsun | politics can be crippling, however. Not that Debian is crap. Just different to Ubuntu. | 08:36 |
| Fujitsu | imbrandon: I don't see that first one as a problem. | 08:36 |
| Fujitsu | Although there is a SoC project to write a proper web interface. | 08:36 |
| imbrandon | Fujitsu, to each its own, to me it means no bug reporting | 08:36 |
| TheMuso | I must admit, I do like the email way of reporting bugs in debian. Its efficient. | 08:36 |
| crimsun | I wish the crontab ran more frequently, but that's about it. | 08:37 |

| === TomaszD [n=tom@unaffiliated/tomaszd] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| crimsun | would require looking deeper into the dsc, I suppose. | 08:52 |
| crimsun | I'm also not sure how easily that's extended [in the autosyncer] . | 08:52 |
| crimsun | if it's feasible and of low cost to the distro team, we could propose that universe be autosynced until UVF. | 08:53 |

| Baby | aha.. how long does it take? | 09:10 |
| Fujitsu | If there are, it will have to be merged, which will probably happen anyway. | 09:10 |
| Fujitsu | The autosyncer runs every few days. | 09:10 |
| Fujitsu | Which package? | 09:10 |

| Fujitsu | !info swfmill gutsy | 09:10 |

| crimsun | it's not specific to Debian, it looks like. Some package in Ubuntu is pulling it in. | 09:27 |

| Baby | no problem, I'm adding it to B-D | 09:29 |

| crimsun | orion2012: hi, sorry for the lag in responding. I'm happy to help point out some areas that you can start in, e.g., https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU#head-ec7a97d5af67e96747b4f36993232ff434f4486c | 11:27 |
| persia | dholbach: I need to learn more about GTK+ icon cache, the relation with KDE, freedesktop standards, and current plans for various transitions in Debian before I can ask it coherently. When I have it defined, I'll ask again :) | 11:27 |
| StevenK | Half the reason that bug remains unfixed is joeyh doesn't like us changing debhelper. | 11:28 |
| persia | StevenK: I thought there were some good points about cache coherency, directory choices, and the burden on maintainers listed in the bug threads, but as I said, I'm not informed enough to have a real opinion yet. | 11:29 |
| dholbach | persia: gtk-update-icon-cache generates a cache file for a given icon theme - gtk uses it (in gnome and xfce) and uses less memory and is quicker - kde doesn't use it -- it's painful to have the diff in ubuntu, but there's not much I can do about it atm :-/ | 11:30 |
| persia | dholbach: Interesting. I was just merging a QT based program that used dh_iconcache, and now definitely should learn more. Given the bug threads, I wouldn't expect anything could be done in the short (or even medium) term. Please don't feel any pressure from me :) | 11:33 |
| dholbach | persia: it uses dh_iconcache, because (I guess) it installs an icon to usr/share/icons/hicolor (which is used in gnome/xfce apps as well) - installing a file to that dir needs updating the cache | 11:34 |
| persia | dholbach: I suspect as much. Thanks again. | 11:35 |
| dholbach | if you have any questions, let me know | 11:36 |

| pochu | persia: we might want to add a patch system to wx2.8... it would make things easier :) | 12:46 |
| persia | pochu: There's no Debian package, so I don't see why we shouldn't. Do you prefer dpatch or quilt? | 12:48 |

| StevenK | Quilt. Shiver. | 12:50 |
| persia | StevenK: You don't like quilt? | 12:50 |
| StevenK | I just prefer dpatch over it. | 12:50 |
| pochu | persia: I don't really mind. dpatch is fine with me. | 12:50 |
| persia | Two of the packages I watch changed from dpatch to quilt for gutsy, and while more complicated, it seemed more flexible. | 12:51 |
| persia | pochu: Let's use dpatch then. | 12:52 |
| pochu | ok, cool :) | 12:53 |
| persia | pochu: Also, I recommend sending any compile fixes, etc back to Vadim. He seems happy to apply things, and is very eager to see distribution :) | 12:54 |
| pochu | :) | 12:55 |
| pochu | persia: I think we just have one fix which isn't applied in 2.8 (but is in trunk): bug 91853 | 12:56 |

| persia | nevermind - didn't read correctly. Is it still missing in 2.8.4? | 12:58 |

| ScottK | imbrandon/welshbyte: Thanks. | 01:51 |
| persia | pschulz01: libxml2 seems to use a dh_make style rules file and use .install files to sort the packages into which the files should go, but I'm not deeply familiar with that library, so I can't promise the packaging is perfect. | 01:52 |

| imbrandon | some diff | 03:07 |
| StevenK | imbrandon: Stop trying. :-P | 03:07 |
| Dabian | ScottK: Well .. the problem is that the package assumes you're running xemacs | 03:07 |
| Dabian | ScottK: So what I did was installing xemacs-base-support, and create a few symlinks | 03:07 |
| Dabian | ScottK: That apparently fixes the problem. | 03:07 |
| ScottK | OK. So you could add xemacs-base-support as a dependency and then I guess do the symlinks in postinst? | 03:08 |

| Dabian | ScottK: I'm not a debian-developer unfortunately ... | 03:10 |
| Dabian | ScottK: I've been through a basic course though. | 03:11 |

| Dabian | ScottK: I remember lintian and linda .was used. | 03:11 |
| ScottK | OK | 03:11 |
| === ScottK knows zip about Java. The JDE is just needed for development, right? | ||
| Dabian | ScottK: I also once repackaged jde for debian with a lot of help .. when I fixed another bug some years ago. | 03:12 |
| ScottK | OK | 03:12 |
| Dabian | ScottK: Yes .. its a "plugin" for Emacs .. makes you able to do all kinda smart things | 03:12 |
| Dabian | ScottK: Like searching for classes, auto-adding imports, building your project etc. | 03:13 |
| ScottK | Dabian: Is there a use case for KDE that does not require compiling? | 03:13 |
| Dabian | ScottK: This bug only affects a subset of the things that jde can do .. but a subset that includes compiling from the menu etc. | 03:13 |
| ScottK | KDE/JDE | 03:13 |
| Dabian | JDE you mean? | 03:13 |
| ScottK | OK | 03:13 |
| ScottK | Yes | 03:13 |
| ScottK | OK, then I agree with recommends. | 03:14 |
| Dabian | Well, it will syntax-hilight your code just fine | 03:14 |
| Dabian | ... and you can add makefiles instead of using JDE to compile. | 03:14 |
| Dabian | I think it would be best to require the package though ... in the sense that it its not obvious that you need to install it ... | 03:15 |
| ScottK | OK. | 03:15 |
| ScottK | Anyone else that uses JDE around with an opinion? | 03:15 |
| Dabian | Most people who develop in java don't know how to do proper makefiles for java, I guess, or prefer ant. | 03:16 |
| Dabian | Also, the package xemacs-base-support isn't very big. | 03:16 |
| imbrandon | man /that/ word keeps getting used | 03:17 |
| ScottK | Dabian: OK. Then you need to add the dependency to debian/control and your symlink changes to the postinst. You will also need to change the maintainer to MOTU as described here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebianMaintainerField. The version for your update will be 2.3.5.1-2ubuntu1. | 03:17 |

| ScottK | You are currently getting help from a vim using Python programmer, so this Emacs/Java stuff I have to study. | 03:30 |

| Hobbsee | crimsun: stolen fbi off you | 03:32 |
| ScottK | Dabian: Looking at the JDE dependencies, it says it depends on emacs21. If you have that installed and not snapshot, does it work? | 03:33 |

| Dabian | It doesn't use bsh if its installed .. it uses the bsh from xemacs-base-support | 03:36 |
| Dabian | ScottK: Can it be that the packages are organised differently in debian than in ubuntu and this is the root cause of the bug? | 03:37 |

| ScottK | Dabian: Looking at the version number, that package is a direct sync from Debian, so not in this case. | 03:37 |
| Dabian | ok | 03:37 |
| Dabian | I don't think "jde" ever worked perfectly in debian though. | 03:38 |
| ScottK | Dabian: Packages where there is a difference from Debian have ubuntux in the version. | 03:38 |
| Dabian | Ahhh :) | 03:38 |
| ScottK | At this point, I'd suggest try it with emacs21 and see since that appears to be what the Debian maintainer intended to support. | 03:38 |
| Dabian | OK | 03:39 |

| bddebian | Hi ScottK, pochu | 03:53 |
| ScottK | Dabian: Does is work with the actual emacsen or emacs21? If it does, then it's a bug in emacs-snapshot-gtk I'd say. | 03:53 |
| Dabian | ScottK: "emacsen" is pseudo ... its used to refer to which emacs you prefer. | 03:54 |
| ScottK | OK | 03:54 |
| ScottK | Then I'd see if it works with emacs21. | 03:54 |
| xxxxx1 | bddebian! | 03:54 |
| Dabian | ScottK: basicly there are two brances of emacs .. "GNU Emacs" and "XEmacs (or Lucid Emacs)" | 03:54 |
| bddebian | Hello xxxxx1 | 03:54 |
| ScottK | OK | 03:54 |
| Dabian | ScottK: The way to do that, is to uninstall the xemacs-base-support and install emacs21, right? | 03:55 |
| === highvoltage [n=highvolt@196.1.61.37] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| ScottK | Dabian: I'd guess that's correct. | 03:55 |

| ScottK | Hello joejaxx | 03:59 |
| Dabian | ScottK: As I predicted, emacs21 fails. | 04:01 |
| bddebian | Heya joejaxx | 04:02 |
| Dabian | It gives the followring error, when I try to compile: | 04:02 |
| Dabian | bsh: Specified BeanShell jar filed does not exist: /usr/share/emacs21/site-lisp/java/lib/bsh.jar | 04:02 |
| ScottK | Dabian: OK. Not a great suprise, but I think it needed to be tested. If emacs21 had worked, then it'd be a emacs-snapshot bug and not jde. | 04:02 |
| Dabian | agreed | 04:02 |
| === yamal [n=yamal@Room641A.no-such-agency.net.ru] has left #ubuntu-motu ["..."] | ||
| ScottK | Dabian: I just confirmed the bug then. | 04:06 |
| Dabian | ScottK: I guess the best sollution would be to transform "xemacs-base-support" into a package with a more general name, and let jde depend on it, and modify jde to look for the files where the new package places the files? | 04:06 |
| === bersace_ [n=bersace@did75-13-82-243-217-90.fbx.proxad.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| Dabian | (Well, extract the subset of files that jde needs from xemacs-base-support) | 04:06 |
| === ivoks [n=ivoks@4-74.dsl.iskon.hr] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| ScottK | Dabian: This is where you need someone who knows the packages better I think. If xemacs is from a different fork of emacs, then it seems something like that would be in order. | 04:07 |
| Dabian | xemacs is a different fork of emacs. :) | 04:08 |
| Dabian | emacs21 and emacs-snapshot is the version of emacs currently supported by the GNU Project. | 04:08 |
| ScottK | Generally, yes or find out which files are needed and double check GNU emacs doesn't provide them somewhere. | 04:08 |
| Dabian | ScottK: The files seems very specific for jde. | 04:09 |
| Dabian | ScottK: Maybe not all of xemacs-base-support ... but those that I symlink to. | 04:09 |
| ScottK | Right. | 04:09 |
| Dabian | I have the feeling that the one who packaged jde and xemacs-base-support didn't use GNU Emacs, and maybe didn't program too much in java either. | 04:11 |
| Dabian | There are still bugs even though you apply my sollution. I still get an error .. but at least it works :) | 04:12 |
| ScottK | Dabian: One solution might be to break the xemacs-base-support into two binary packages and have the second provide the needed stuff for JDE. | 04:13 |
| Dabian | Right | 04:13 |
| ScottK | Dabian: Once you get a sane general solution worked out, I can help you package it, but won't be a lot of use with the specifics (as you no doubt have noticed by now). | 04:13 |

| ScottK | See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/School/PatchingSources and look at cdbs with simple-patchsys. WIth cdbs-edit-patch it's dead easy. | 06:15 |
| jussi01 | ScottK: ok, im interested to learn how to patch anyway because im sure Ill have to use it in the future | 06:15 |
| jussi01 | ScottK: cool | 06:16 |

| concept10 | what is commonly used to package? pbuilder or debhelper? | 06:44 |
| jussi01 | concept10: both | 06:44 |
| concept10 | jussi01, what is the choice based on? | 06:45 |
| jussi01 | concept10: they do different things | 06:45 |
| dholbach | debhelper and pbuilder are not exclusive at all | 06:45 |
| dholbach | one is used in the package build system (like common scripts you use in a Makefile), pbuilder test-builds the package in a chrooted environment | 06:47 |
| concept10 | well, I personally know of 4 ways to package .debs. Im trying to see what you guys standardize on. | 06:47 |
| dholbach | pbuilder is not a way of packaging things | 06:47 |
| jussi01 | concept10: ^^ listen to him... | 06:47 |
| dholbach | it's a tool to test build packages (once the source package is done) | 06:48 |
| concept10 | dholbach, okay, gotcha | 06:48 |
| dholbach | right | 06:48 |

| dholbach | I mostly use CDBS to package new packages | 06:52 |

| jussi01 | concept10: debhelper is still ok to use also - i used it on my last package | 06:53 |

| joejaxx | elkbuntu: oh i wanted to tell you the fluxbuntu logo has changed | 10:20 |
| ScottK | Adri2000: Looking at the difference between the MoM and DaD proposed patches for courier might be instructive for you. There are a number of places where DaD declares a conflict that MoM manages to work it out. | 10:21 |
| ScottK | nixternal: I vaguely recall having to do something with the po files, but unfortunately I don't recall what. | 10:22 |
| nixternal | let me take a quick look | 10:22 |
| ScottK | nixternal: Of course given my long experience as a MOTU, I'm sure I didn't screw it up. ;-) | 10:24 |
| nixternal | I am noticing something goofy between Debians version and the Ubuntu version with the debian/po dirs | 10:24 |
| minghua | PO files are alwasy tricky | 10:25 |

| nixternal | ya | 10:34 |
| nixternal | OK, I kind of thought that | 10:34 |
| nixternal | OK, now say I did this from scratch, it would be the same as replacing the debian/po directory from the ubuntu*.dsc with the original one from the Debian package correct? | 10:35 |

| ScottK | nixternal: I remember now. I just edited them out of the patch. | 10:36 |
| nixternal | hehe | 10:37 |
| ajmitch | Adri2000: filterdiff | 10:37 |
| nixternal | ScottK: but you could just replace the po directories right, swap them..and then update the changelog noting the change? this way here int he future it will be documented for whoever else so they know to fix it? | 10:37 |

| ScottK | dothebart: I will look at it again, but probably not today as it's a complex package. | 10:40 |

| nixternal | OK | 10:45 |
| nixternal | now wait a second | 10:45 |
| nixternal | I look at the new debdiff and there are still po changes after copying them from Debian | 10:45 |
| nixternal | it is smaller than the previous, but still has po changes | 10:46 |
| Adri2000 | nixternal: these changes are generated during the source package build | 10:47 |
| Adri2000 | probably because of: "- added build depends for po-debconf" | 10:47 |
| nixternal | hrmm, it could be | 10:48 |
| ScottK | Still fails to apply, BTW. | 10:48 |
| nixternal | ya, I kind of figured that | 10:48 |
| nixternal | OK...let me do it the manual way then...argh ;) | 10:48 |

| ScottK | nixternal: I'll be AFK for a bit. I'll look again when I get back. | 10:49 |
| nixternal | OK..I will test it here first before I ship you the debdiff | 10:50 |
| Adri2000 | nixternal: you shouldn't paste the signed .changes in the bug report. since you are not a motu for the moment, it's not a big issue, but when you are a motu, if you put a source package with its signed .changes somewhere, anyone can take it and upload it with your name and your signature on it | 10:53 |
| nixternal | I was told by others to do it that way, that is why I do it | 10:53 |
| Adri2000 | they told you to paste the *signed* file? | 10:54 |
| nixternal | Adri2000: yes | 10:58 |
| minghua | po-debconf should only touch stuff in debian/, mostly debian/po/ | 10:58 |
| minghua | the po/*.po and debian/po/*.po shoudl be completely independent | 10:58 |

| nixternal | I don't have dput rights...so I can't do any evil..and if there is a MOTU who uses it to do evil, it is on them :) | 11:06 |
| nixternal | isn't like they can hide who uploaded it (dput) | 11:07 |
| ajmitch | nixternal: yes, it'll show as coming from you | 11:07 |
| shawarma | Everyone has dput rights. It's anonymous ftp upload. The signature on the changes file is what matters, actually. | 11:07 |
| nixternal | ajmitch: yes, but it also shows who uploaded it | 11:07 |
| ajmitch | as shawarma said.. | 11:08 |
| shawarma | I still don't really see the problem in having a a signed .changes file lying around in a public place? | 11:08 |
| ajmitch | your name would be in the .changes file & on the signature, which would get ignored by anyone except revu | 11:08 |
| nixternal | OK, maybe it doesn't..I thought it did | 11:09 |
| === Ppjet6 [n=ppjet@lns-bzn-51f-81-56-130-254.adsl.proxad.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| shawarma | The signed .changes file gets sent to a public mailing lists anyhow? | 11:11 |
| Adri2000 | shawarma: yes, but only once the package is uploaded, and once it is uploaded, you can still try to re-upload it with the signed .changes available on the ml, it will always get rejected because of the version | 11:12 |
| shawarma | Adri2000: Yes.. | 11:13 |
| Adri2000 | if the package hasn't been uploaded, and you put it somewhere with its signed .changes, anyone will be able to upload it, even if it was not mean to be uploaded | 11:13 |
| Adri2000 | anyone = even a non-motu | 11:13 |
| shawarma | Adri2000: If I sign the .changes file, it's because I want to upload it. If someone wants to do it for me... Hey, it's their bandwidth! | 11:13 |
| Adri2000 | and the upload will be signed by you... | 11:14 |
| nixternal | lol shawarma | 11:14 |
| shawarma | Adri2000: The .changes file contains checksums for the other files. It's not like someone can upload bad things in my name. | 11:14 |
| shawarma | nixternal: :) | 11:15 |
| Adri2000 | of course, but if you ignore that, you may put somewhere a package which is not yet ready, and if there is the signed .changes, it's dangerous | 11:16 |
| shawarma | Sure, but to go from that to a "putting signed .changes in public places is evil" policy is a bit of a stretch IMO. | 11:17 |
| Adri2000 | that's why you get a 403 forbidden on all the .changes file on REVU. so that a motu can upload to revu without being afraid that someone will upload a half-done package with his name on it | 11:17 |
| Adri2000 | files* | 11:17 |
| shawarma | Yes, I suppose that makes some sense. | 11:18 |

| minghua | I don't have much to add to what Adri2000 already said | 11:20 |
| minghua | I think the point is you should only sign .changes when you really do an upload | 11:21 |
| minghua | you should always sign your .dsc though | 11:21 |
| gnomefreak | .changes and .dsc no? | 11:21 |
| gnomefreak | ah ok | 11:21 |
| Adri2000 | both if you are going to upload. only .dsc if you are going to give the package to someone (so that he can't upload it, but he can be sure it comes from you) | 11:22 |

| welshbyte | when's the next motu meeting? | 11:52 |
| crimsun | has it been decided? | 11:53 |
| crimsun | (just reattached, haven't read backscroll or email) | 11:54 |
| ajmitch | no | 11:55 |
| ajmitch | noone wants to propose a time | 11:55 |
| welshbyte | crimsun: i don't know, i assumed meetings were a regular thing | 11:55 |
| ajmitch | welshbyte: they are meant to be | 11:55 |
| ajmitch | should I just throw out a time on the mailing list? | 11:55 |
| welshbyte | but i guess if there's nothing to talk about, there's nothing to talk about :) | 11:56 |
| crimsun | yes. Let's start with this Wed, Thurs, or Fri. | 11:56 |
| ScottK | nixternal: Where did the change in rfc2045/reformime.1 come from (patch fails to apply on that hunk BTW)? | 11:56 |
| ajmitch | oh, people have still to complain about | 11:56 |
| ScottK | Gotta run. Be back later. Told you courier was instructive.... | 11:56 |
| geser | pick a time which fits you best as nobody has made an other proposal (yet) :) | 11:57 |
| gnomefreak | when a package say has build-dep libxxx without a version in control it uses the version installed shlibs defines that right? | 11:57 |

| nixternal | ScottK: you know what..it is LP breaking the debdiff | 11:58 |
| ScottK | nixternal: I'd guess it did. That's the only hunk that fails. Why is it in the debdiff at all? There's no changelog entry to support it? | 11:58 |
| nixternal | -Hla! | 11:59 |
| nixternal | +H\['o] la! | 11:59 |
| nixternal | that is what it is supposed to be | 11:59 |
| nixternal | I think that is created because if you cat the file it gives you the funky ? character | 12:00 |
| nixternal | hrmm | 12:01 |
| gnomefreak | checking again for Mozilla nspr4 includes in /usr/include/mozilla/nspr... no assuming this means it cant find the libnspr-dev package? | 12:01 |
| nixternal | once again...the Ubuntu file is different than the Debian one...I wonder if it has to do with the funky character | 12:01 |
| nixternal | it is the Ubuntu patch from MoM that is hosing it | 12:03 |
| crimsun | gnomefreak: it should be libnspr4-dev | 12:11 |
| crimsun | gnomefreak: (I presume you read https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2007-May/023618.html ...) | 12:12 |
| jmg_ | hey all | 12:13 |
| jmg_ | what is that cool tool for determining what a binary's dependencies are? | 12:13 |
| crimsun | apt-cache depends is an easy but imprecise method | 12:13 |
| crimsun | objdump is the harder but precise method | 12:13 |
| jmg_ | crimsun: not using the package manager | 12:13 |
