holycowwhere can i find out information on intel wireless drivers?05:45
holycowi was under the impression that they were open sourced but i keep on reading that they are binary and closed source05:45
Burgundaviaholycow: they require binary firmware05:46
holycowin the u.s. i think they haveto be closed source by law but just curious in general about intel particapation in the community05:46
holycowhey Burgundavia 05:46
Burgundaviaintel is busy rewriting their driver right now05:46
Burgundavianew driver is called iwl, I think05:46

cjwatsonlvm-common was there when both lvm1 and lvm2 were in place to support clean upgrades. it's probably largely pointless now but it would be gratuitous merge pain in future to remove it10:51
Keybukthere might need to be an improvement to your udev rules, but nothing more10:51
Keybukcjwatson: the problem is there are bugs that seem to go away if you remove it10:51
fabbioneKeybuk: i am all up for improvements... 10:52
cjwatsonwhat, like "lvm is present"?10:52
cjwatsonlvm2 Depends: lvm-common10:52
Keybukcjwatson: lol10:52
Keybukcjwatson: the init script seems to break several setups working with our lvm-from-udev approach10:52

cjwatsonpitti: I'm thinking of starting to build the graphical installer (partly for giggles, partly because we've got the hardest of the dependencies available now and so it doesn't cost much, partly because it makes the d-i merge a good deal simpler)11:58
cjwatsonpitti: but it does need a few extra bits in main11:58
cjwatsonthis is the alternate installer with the graphical frontend, as in Debian. I'm not wild about its UI, but a number of people seem interested in at least trying it11:58
pitticjwatson: you mean for lvm/cryptsetup support?11:58
pittiah, I see11:58
pitticjwatson: the return of the gtk framebuffer stuff? :)11:59
pittiI tried it a few days ago, and while I don't see a major advantage of it, it certainly looks a bit friendlier11:59
cjwatsonspecifically, it needs rootskel-gtk, ttf-farsiweb, ttf-cjk-compact, ttf-tmuni, and ttf-khmeros source promotions, cdebconf-gtk-udeb binary promotion, and various binary font promotions11:59
cjwatsonI don't really propose to have it be the default on the alternate CD; I think it's still too clunky12:00
=== pitti hopes that the ttf-* won't take too much space
cjwatsonI wasn't even proposing to have them on the alternate CD ;-)12:00
cjwatsonit can be netboot only for the people who want to try it12:00
pittiah, that sounds fine12:00
cjwatsonbut I wanted to see what you thought; I can still disable it again if you (or others) would prefer12:01
pittittf-* sounds harmless, binary promotions as well (I still need to look at bugs etc.), I don't know about rootskel-gtk12:01

asacCompany: if your comments are well thought ... add it to wiki ... if you want to discuss it first ... lets discuss :)01:23
asacimprovements always welcome01:23
Companyasac: i think hooking into a playing flash file for the easy codec stuff is a bad idea01:23
Companyasac: 1) it's not as simple as in the wiki, since sound can be in lots of places01:24
Companyasac: 2) flash files are expected to be self-contained and it would break that model01:25
Companyasac: since it is well known which codecs are needed, why don't you do codec-install them upon package install or first start of the flash player?01:25
asacCompany: looking at gnash code it appears that flash actually gives up if the codec isn't found.01:27
asacwhich is the place where to hook in codec install 01:27

Companyin which case i'd run it there01:34
Companybut i'm not a packager, so no clue about that possibility01:35

asacsame goes for gnash of course ... which is the outstanding issue: extend backend/server contract to notify UI about missing codecs01:48
Companyyeah, that's the other point01:49

=== sabdfl [n=sabdfl@ubuntu/member/pdpc.silver.sabdfl] has joined #ubuntu-devel
cjwatsonmvo: firstly, it seems that for a single package (even with options) the syntax ought to be non-hierarchical, so apt:unrar rather than apt://unrar06:14
tkamppeterpitti, Mithrandir, I have now made available a merged Ghostscript where http://bugs.ghostscript.com/show_bug.cgi?id=689237 is worked around, so it has no regression against gs-gpl-8.56.06:14

tkamppeterI think this we can upload into Gutsy.06:14
mvocjwatson: that synatax was selected to stay compatible with guadalinex, they have deployed a similar system since some time already06:14
pittitkamppeter: yay06:15
pittitkamppeter: are there any remaining differences to Debian now?06:15
pittitkamppeter: i. e. what will go into Debian, not what's in it currently06:15
cjwatsonmvo: secondly, the deb%20http://blah syntax is very obscure; could I suggest simply apt+http://blah instead? there are other schemes that do that sort of thing (svn, bzr)06:15
tkamppeterNo, I have overtaken everything which the Debian maintainer suggested, so I think it will go into Debian the same way.06:16
cjwatsonmvo: I'm not sure that should be an overriding concern, since it isn't standardised06:16
keescookpitti: CVE-2007-2754> yup, on the radar just behind the pending php and samba updates06:16
cjwatsonmvo: we could support apt://unrar but recommend apt:unrar06:16
tkamppeterpitti, you are CCed on all my e-mails concerning this.06:17
pittitkamppeter: right, that looked promising06:17
cjwatsonmvo: I'm also not sure I see the use for apt://multiverse?add-component - shouldn't apt: use a temporary sources.list that overrides your usual configuration while installing from the browser?06:17
pittitkamppeter: I'll upload this in a bit and care for the removals of the other gs'es06:17
tkamppeterThanks, pitti.06:18
cjwatsonmvo: I think it would be a lot clearer if apt: URIs always caused a package to be installed, rather than mixing it up with sources.list maintenance06:18
mvocjwatson: the idea behind add-component and add-repository was that the repositories are added permanently - but I see the value in having it enabled only temporarely06:19
cjwatsonmvo: my suggestion would be something like apt+http://launchpad.net/~mvo/ppa/test:ppa-key:mvos-new-package06:19
mvocjwatson: hm, maybe not. the good thing about adding repositories permanently is that we can automatically ship updates this way06:19
cjwatsonthough I'm not sure I entirely like that either - but it's better than %20 sprinkled through the URI06:20
cjwatsonmvo: I don't think we should conflate too much into this. URI syntax ought to be simple, not a fully-functional language06:20
cjwatsona URI is supposed to describe a single accessible resource, not an arbitrary set of actions to be performed on your system06:20
mvocjwatson: the alternative to this would be a control file thing to add repositories. some mechanism for this would be good to have for PPAs06:21
=== LeeJunFan_ [n=junfan@s64-186-37-84.skycon.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel
cjwatsonas I said, I think we could ship apt: URIs that install packages from PPAs without having to add the repository permanently to sources.list06:21
mvocjwatson: that would mean that the user does not get automatic updates from it. if that is something we can life with, I'm fine with that06:22
cjwatsonbut I do think adding repositories using the same syntax is a really bad idea - the UI ought to be quite different06:22
cjwatsonthat's true - can I suggest using a different URI scheme then?06:22

cjwatsonthe URI scheme as written just seems really easy to get wrong06:23
=== phanatic [n=phanatic@ubuntu/member/phanatic] has joined #ubuntu-devel
mvocjwatson: ok, that sounds good. this way the whole thing gets a lot easier/clearer06:24
cjwatsonactually, it would kind of make sense if it always pointed to a package, even if it added a repository along the way06:24
mvocjwatson: do you think we should still support apt+http:// handlers?06:24
mvocjwatson: which one should always point to a package? the apt-repository: link? or apt: link?06:25
pittitkamppeter: http://www.linux-foundation.org/~till/tmp/ubuntu/gutsy/gs-gpl/ still has the version from May 17th; this doesn't have the workaround you mentioned yet?06:25
cjwatsonhow about apt+http://launchpad.net/~mvo/ppa/test/?mvos-new-package ?06:25

=== beuno [n=martin@ubuntu/member/beuno] has joined #ubuntu-devel
cjwatsonand the UI can notice if the repository isn't in sources.list and ask you whether you want to add it permanently in order to get updates, or just use it for this one install, or cancel06:29

mvocjwatson: yes, that sound pretty good. this waywe eliminate the need for a second protokol type as well06:29
cjwatsonI'm not sure how to do multiple packages; it doesn't really seem idiomatic for URIs to point to multiple resources06:30
cjwatsonbut I wonder whether that is necessary - if it's very common to install multiple packages at once, one can always build a metapackage06:30
mvocjwatson: we could allow packages=one,two,three or simply multiple package= statements06:30
cjwatsonsorry, I know I'm coming in late and kind of blowing the spec out of the water :-/06:30
cjwatsonI only just saw it due to a reference from elsewhere06:31
mvocjwatson: that fine. I'm happy as long as it makes the spec better06:31
cjwatsonI'm guessing it should be no more difficult to make firefox support apt+http and apt+ftp as well as apt06:32

cjwatsonpitti: the NNN part is three digits06:56
pittiah, right06:56
cjwatsonc.  The `echo' builtin now accepts \0xxx (zero to three octal digits following the `0') in addition to \xxx (one to three octal digits) for SUSv3/XPG6/ POSIX.1-2001 compliance.06:57
pittiwell, ok, it's an Ubuntu delta in either case, so it doesn't actually matter much06:57

cjwatsonprobably worth chucking at upstream06:58
cjwatsonmvo: one other query I have is whether minversion (or >= or whatever) is necessary - it only seems useful for dependencies, in which case you can just put it in a Depends: line06:59
cjwatson(we don't support 'apt-get install foo (>= 1.0)', after all, although once in a blue moon I find a use for that in the installer)07:00
cjwatsonmvo: also dependencies between PPAs are probably worth considering - maybe ?extrarepository=http://blah ?07:01
cjwatsonthough I realise that risks building back up to the complexity of the original :)07:01
mvocjwatson: good point. the use-case I had in mind was something like "the new gaim support the $foo protocol. install it now: apt://gamin?minversion=$version-that-supports-foo". but it should be fine to leave it for later07:02

mvocjwatson: interdependencies between repositories is something I would like to keep away from for now. the good thing about the uri-schema is that it is easily extensable. lets see how people use the PPAs. I wonder how many will "stack" them in a way that we need this feature07:03

cjwatsonwhich might just have been command-line order?07:20

tkamppeterAnd also important to know, as "Provides:" in an RPM fulfills dependencies. So then I know not to use "Provides:" in distribution-independent RPMS for printer drivers, to avoid problems with thealien-generated Debian package.08:06

siretartyeah :)09:20
seb128siretart: I'm happy to be proved wrong but for me it's only extra work 09:20
seb128siretart: makes sense for packages where you queue work before uploading09:20
seb128otherwise it's easier to do your change and upload09:20
siretartseb128: I see your point09:21
seb128when you want to modify a package using bzr you don't work on usually, you have to look for the bzr location first, checkout, modify, commit, figure how to build from bzr and then upload09:22
seb128when in the non bzr case you apt-get source, modify, upload09:22
siretartseb128: we discussed in Sevilla with mvo about extending apt to parse the XS-Bzr-Source field of packages to checkout that branch location. this addresses one part of your argument09:24

pittiquite amazing that ghostscript now supports gtk10:40
tkamppeterI left the update-alternatives in for the case there would be a fork in the future.10:40
pittitkamppeter: what would that give us? and how much would it cost us in terms of disk space?10:40
pittitkamppeter: TBH I'd remove the alternatives stuff now and reintroduce it when necessary10:41
=== Burgundavia_ [n=corey@ubuntu/member/burgundavia] has joined #ubuntu-devel
tkamppeterpitti, I can take out the update-alternatives.10:41
pittithat's not really urgent, though, the FTBFS is more important10:41
pittitkamppeter: so it's 'add gtk build dep' vs. 'disable gtk'?10:42
tkamppeterpitti, The GTK support is as follows:10:42
tkamppeterThere is libgs and there are two executables replacing the monolithic GS, two tini executables linking to libgs.10:43
tkamppeterOne of them, gsc gives the Ghostscript we know from monolithic times.10:43
=== macd [n=d@adsl-35-254-87.msy.bellsouth.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel
tkamppeterThe other, gsx, has an additional output device named "display" which is the X device but with a GTK-based window.10:44
pittiah, I see10:44
pittitkamppeter: well, I doubt that it is much useful, since we already have good gs frontends for Gnome; so I agree to just disable it10:45
tkamppeterGhostscript had this feature for longer, but neither in Debian nor in Ubuntu it was made use of it. gs-gpl was compiled monolithically all the time, and gs-esp was compiled with --disable-gtk, so only gsc got built. And this gsc was renamed into gs-esp and update-alternatived to gs.10:45
