geserHi persia12:14
geserI've some build logs for adour from PPA12:14

geserHi TheMuso12:16
jmgwhats dogfood?12:16
persiageser: Cool!  We can replicate without the actual buildds :)12:16
jmglp beta?12:16
geserthat's the same error as in xmms2 before it moved away from scons12:16
TheMusoWow.12:16

jmgppa?12:16
persiajmg: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eat_one%27s_own_dog_food12:16
jmgpersia: i know what that means, its our company motto :)12:17
TheMusoSo am I guessing that its a pkg-config problem?12:17
jmgi was just wondering what dogfood.lp.net was12:17
geserthere was some change on the buildds some time ago, so the error message isn't that verbose as in the beginning12:17
docta_vminghua: according to --contents there is no /.deb12:17
jmggeser: that looks like a bash to nash error?12:17
docta_vbut if i install it creates a /.deb12:17
persiaTheMuso: Except that any recent version of pkg-config really ought to be >> 0.812:17
TheMusopersia: Yeah.12:17

=== blueCommand [n=bluecomm@unaffiliated/bluecommand] has joined #ubuntu-motu
TheMusoSo why does it work for us12:18
jmghow come dogfood runs an older build of lp then?12:18
docta_vhmm i think i fixed it12:19
persiajmg: It's for testing random extra features: not the latest code - see snapshot or beta12:19
jmgok12:19
geserTheMuso: it seems to be a bug in sbuild used on the buildds12:20
TheMusoOk12:20
jmgalso there is no definition on the wiki for ppa12:20
geseror the buildd environment12:20
persiaTheMuso: That's an interesting question.  I'm tempted to try to set up a gutsy schroot under Dapper, but I think the buildd configuration is even more complex than that.12:20

geserthe problem is to find someone who has time and can fix it :(12:21
geserbut I don't understand why only scons triggers this problem12:22
persiageser: It's not just scons: there are other strange corner cases to the buildds as well :)12:24

TheMusoAs it does indeed make it easy to know what has been taken.12:29
persiaTheMuso: Indeed.  Thanks to you for taking the bugs and handling them.  I'll still prod when I find the extras :)12:30
TheMusonp. I feel that not enough MOTUs help with this queue actually.12:30
geseris xml.etree.ElementTree from python2.5 a full replacement for elementtree.ElementTree from python-elementtree which only supports python2.4?12:31
persiaTheMuso: I see about 10 active sponsors, and feel that the queue time is acceptable (it no longer takes months to get a review), so I'm not that worried.  More hands are good, but I'd rather 10 committed people than 50 who look once in a while (of course, 50 committed people would be better :) )12:34

TheMusoI uploaded one y esterday, as that change had already been allowed in a previous merge, but I am not so sure about changing a package not  yet touched in this way...12:39
persiaTheMuso: My understanding is that Ubuntu doesn't block on GFDL, but I don't remember why I'm of that opinion.  On the other hand, most of them are waiting for emacs22, and despite a recent promise, I don't see that yet.12:39

persiaRickH: Great!  We're more focused on packaging for Ubuntu than development here, but you'll probably get good support from channels where the name matches your target development environment.  On the other hand, looking at other source packages can be a great way to see how others do it, which can make it easy to learn.12:45

persiageser: It does, but I'm not sure how that would get exported to the local environment, but only on the buildds.  Perhaps something is generating too many fields, so $foo shows the address of @foo, rather than the expected content.01:12

superm1in mythplugins however, there are two missing debhelper tokens, but they were giving me trouble when they were there, so i'll sort those out next upload02:51
persiasuperm1: missing debhelper can be a concern: this means that none of the automated things will be included: you may want to check which routines would otherwise have been included, to make sure you have covereage.02:52

=== ScottK also recalls dholbach whining on the motu list that there was stuff in there that needed copyright/licensing info added.

minghuaicf7: Not enough manpower.  There are probably hundreds of rules.  Listing them all doesn't make much sense.10:20
tsmithejussi01, can you get a stack trace?10:20
icf7minghua: Where are they listed now?10:21
geserjussi01: build-depend on the right gcc package and make sure that it gets used10:21
minghuaicf7: In Debian, each team/tool has its own documentation.10:21
minghuaicf7: New tools are invented, old tools are improved, so I don't think it make sense to have a central place for all documentations.10:22
icf7minghua: I have no problem with tool documentation, this is about packaging guidelines.10:22
man-diicf7: different tools are used for packaging10:22
minghuaWell, if you package use certain tools/language/platform, you need to abide by those rules.10:22
icf7man-di: I know, thanks to you ;) , but why not create subpages for individual tools?10:23
=== minghua got to go. Be back later.
gesericf7: the packaging guidelines depend on the tool used and may get outdated as the tools improve10:24
man-diicf7: there are too many of them10:24
icf7geser: Well, there is a high number of tool-independent rules, like indenting debian/copyright. I could swear someone here showed me a link on how to do it, but man-dir told me my version was totally incorrect.10:25
=== xxxxx1 [n=xxxxx1@44125.static.fln.virtua.com.br] has joined #ubuntu-motu
icf7man-di: afaik (yet), there are debhelper/CDBS and maybe a few else to generate debian/rules. Apart from this, a lot of things do not change. And even if they do: Why should changes be documented somewhere instead of e.g. a central wiki?10:27
=== gnomefreak [n=gnomefre@ubuntu/member/gnomefreak] has joined #ubuntu-motu
tsmitheman-di, did you get a chance to see wired?10:29
gesericf7: the debian policy has a chapter how debian/changelog should look like10:30
=== broonie hasn't heard of any rules for indenting debian/copyright :)
icf7geser: debian/*copyright* . The chapter on debian/changelog is one of the best in the whole debian policy, partly because the use BNF10:31
geserI should read better :)10:32
broonieNote that the changelog needs to be machine parsable.10:32
=== icf7 notes his previous message was not parsable s/use BNF/use of BNF
icf7BNF-like, to be precise10:33
gesericf7: http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2006/03/msg00023.html has some guidelines (linked from the maintainer guide)10:34
icf7geser: Thanks for illustrating my point about obscure and distributed sources ;) . man-di told me there should be no indenting at all for the main text, and 4 spaces for the license10:35
broonieIt really makes no difference so long as it is legible.10:37
=== vil [n=vladimir@ubuntu/member/vil] has joined #ubuntu-motu
icf7broonie: It does, how am I supposed to find that posting, deduce it's how to do it, and that as a new contributor who's glad dpkg-buildpackage runs for the first time without any errors?10:39
xxxxx1bye all10:41
broonieicf7: It's just pointing out stuff that's already in the existing docs (well, the link to the reject FAQ probably isn't but...).10:41
broonieI'd suggest filing a bug on the developers reference in Debian asking for any missing stuff to be added (perhaps the example would be a good idea)10:42
icf7broonie: Which existing docs? And could you point me to a documentation that says the license in debian/copyright should be indented with 2 spaces?10:42
RickHIt worked.  It required the full uid, including the comment.10:43
icf7broonie: That's a good idea, but this is a general problem that there are lots of invalid packages which follow all the guidelines in the docs (aka Debian Policy Manual), and even vice versa10:44
broonieicf7: You can indent the copyright file however you feel like so long as it is legible; that is just an example there (where it improves the legibility for the multipe GPL blocks)10:45
=== Pricey [n=pricechi@ubuntu/member/pricechild] has joined #ubuntu-motu
icf7broonie: man-di told me otherwise. That's my point: There is no central, unique, and *binding* instance although it would rapidly enhance packaging, especially for non-MOTUs10:47
broonieIn terms of Debian things become best practice long before they are binding policy.10:48
man-diicf7: such a doku would be much bigger when wikipedia, when complete10:49
man-diicf7: and as broonie said, Debian isnt so formal, you are allowed to do things as you like10:50
broonieExcluding technical requirements like the transition to the Python policy the list of things you *should* do will always lag the documentation.10:50
icf7man-di: I doubt that, if it's limited to packaging10:50
broonieReally.10:50
man-diicf7: feel free to look at some of the bigger packages10:51
broonieConsider things like the array of patch systems - there's none, quilt, dpatch, dbs and others.10:51
man-diicf7: like gcc, eclipse, openoffice.org10:51
broonieIt's only very recently that it was decided to kill debmake, for example.10:52
man-diicf7: if you package them accroding to some guideline you would fail10:52
man-diicf7: and e.g. there are still packages using yada as build system10:52
icf7man-di: I did (Firefox, Eclipse, Konqueror, hello and others), and mimicking their solutions often turns out to be partially or fully wrong10:52
broonieIt's a bit like the adoption of bzr packaging in Ubuntu - it's being pushed, it's quite probably a good idea but it's not 100% there yet.10:53
icf7broonie: That maybe the case because (new) packagers don't even find the name on the Ubuntu packaging guidelines and wherever else they look.10:54
broonieThe best approach to widespread adoption (where possible) is often to get lintian to warn about not doing it :010:54
=== reggaemanu__ [n=manu@ARennes-257-1-8-95.w81-250.abo.wanadoo.fr] has joined #ubuntu-motu

=== avoine [n=avoine@69.70.0.36] has joined #ubuntu-motu
broonieWell, not quite. But note that it is overridable and that it's not always possible (hence the "where possible").10:56
broonieIn any case, I'd suggest starting with a wiki page linking to best practices and also tracking efforts to push the information there back into more formal documentation.10:57

gnomefreakScottK: last i heard many big regresstions in latest11:09
ScottKI wasn't sure how recent that release was since the bug was just reported.11:09
ScottKMaybe some of them got fixed.11:10
=== RickH is mucho loving Ubuntu.
cromoI updated it a bit11:10
=== ScottK - of course - tends to think of Flash-Not_working as a feature and not a bug.
RickHDo other people use other Linux distros?  Is Debian the best?  It seems to be much easier to use than others I've tried.11:10
gnomefreakScottK: well something is wrong with it either way, md5 should match unless adobe played with thier site11:11
ScottKSure thing.11:11
cromognomefreak: maybe they updated the package?11:11
gnomefreakthe changelog isnt showing a change for this11:12
cromowell, maybe a repackaging ;-)11:13
RickHI should've said:  "Does anyone here use other Linux distros as well?"  Is/are Debian-based distros the best you've used?11:13

cromohold on a sec11:18
cromoI'll see how it's here under archlinux11:18
cromothat's the md5sum the packagin script here is expecting: 76b38231a68995935185aa42dfda9db711:19
gnomefreakif its looking for install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz than its gonna grab latest stable.11:19
cromoyeah, I just had a look at the URL and it's the same11:19
cromoI wonder why doesn't the tarball name doesn't obey the common rules and include the version number... 11:20
gnomefreakcromo: same as what ubuntu is lookng for11:20
cromoeverytime I see some kind of package distributed as such I have a strong feeling the software developer is actually linux-newbie11:21
=== gnomefreak wonders where the hell flash keeps thier md5sums :(
cromoyeah, good point, too11:21
=== gnomefreak pinged crimsun because he knows more of flash crap than me (thankfully) but hes not around. anyone else care to find the cause other than the name of the tarball :(
cromoI grepped the package for strings, it's a 9.0.48 indeed11:23
