| Megaqwerty | anyone? | 12:55 |
| persia | Megaqwerty: Sorry: I answered whist you were away. | 12:55 |
| Megaqwerty | ah, what was the answer? | 12:56 |
| persia | Megaqwerty: First, are you building source in feisty or gutsy? If feisty, you may need to set some variables to get your gpg-agent to work. | 12:56 |
| Megaqwerty | feisty | 12:56 |
| crimsun | 18:40 < persia> I'm slow, but it's one of 1) GPG-agent not working due to missing variables, 2) incorrect email in key, 3) incorrect email in changelog, 4) incorrect email in DEBEMAIL, or 5) incorrect GPG configuration. Perhaps the IRC log will be helpful to someone. | 12:56 |
| persia | Megaqwerty: OK. That's probably it then. Are you using seahorse, or gpg-agent as a GPG Agent? | 12:57 |
| gnomefreak | i dont think its gpg-agent | 12:57 |
| gnomefreak | nor seahorse | 12:57 |
| Megaqwerty | indeed | 12:57 |
| Megaqwerty | gnomefreak: is correct, I know not of either | 12:57 |
| gnomefreak | i have both both work fine feisty and gutsy | 12:57 |
| persia | gnomefreak: Really? Do you have anything special in ~/.devscripts in feisty? | 12:57 |
| gnomefreak | i would make sure changelog is correct as set in your DEBEMAIL in ~/.bashrc | 12:57 |
| gnomefreak | persia: no nothing i changed | 12:58 |
| persia | Megaqwerty: OK. Next, make sure that you have DEBEMAIL set, that it matches the last changelog entry, and that it matches one of the emails on your key. | 12:58 |
| gnomefreak | didnt even know that was created | 12:58 |
| === Megaqwerty [n=megaqwer@unaffiliated/megaqwerty] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| Megaqwerty | sorry about that | 12:58 |
| persia | Megaqwerty: OK. Next, make sure that you have DEBEMAIL set, that it matches the last changelog entry, and that it matches one of the emails on your key. | 12:58 |
| Megaqwerty | so... export DEBEMAIL=myemail in the end of .bashrc? | 12:59 |
| persia | Megaqwerty: That could work, but for troubleshooting, try just running export DEBEMAIL=<your email> in the terminal first. If it works, adding it to .bashrc makes sense. | 12:59 |
| gnomefreak | assuming your not using bzr bd | 01:00 |
| gnomefreak | export GPGKEY=keyid would be helpful as well if its not already there | 01:00 |
| persia | gnomefreak: Already done :) | 01:01 |
| gnomefreak | i have 6 exports in ~/.bashrc and just going through them to make sure you have them :) | 01:01 |
| === persia has 0 exports in .bashrc, and everything works | ||
| gnomefreak | 1 is ther eby default | 01:02 |
| gnomefreak | you better have 1;) | 01:02 |
| gnomefreak | export HISTCONTROL=ignoredups | 01:02 |
| Megaqwerty | I have exported the correct key | 01:02 |
| persia | gnomefreak: mine's commented out :) | 01:02 |
| === gnomefreak wonders if DEBEMAIL takes full name as well as email | ||
| gnomefreak | persia: ah | 01:02 |
| gnomefreak | im gonna assume no since i have 2 lines | 01:03 |
| Megaqwerty | well...that didn't work | 01:03 |
| Megaqwerty | (DEBEMAIL) | 01:03 |
| Megaqwerty | it is the same email in the changelog, and my gpg key | 01:04 |
| gnomefreak | persia: maybe you had added an email to your key? | 01:04 |
| crimsun | pastebin the uids from your key and the complete top changelog entry. | 01:04 |
| persia | Megaqwerty: Hmmm.. Could you try setting DEBEMAIL to be "Name in changelog <email>"? | 01:04 |

| Megaqwerty | okay, so I forgot I have another hour :-\ | 01:11 |
| Megaqwerty | So, I had just tried exporting DEBEMAIL and GPGKEY variables to no avail. | 01:12 |
| Megaqwerty | persia, gnomefreak, you guys still here? | 01:13 |
| crimsun | 19:04 < crimsun> pastebin the uids from your key and the complete top changelog entry. | 01:13 |
| persia | Megaqwerty: Great. Does it work with the expanded DEBEMAIL setting? If not, could you please put the last changelog entry and the uuids from your key in a changelog entry for examination? | 01:13 |
| Megaqwerty | persia: expanded? Oh, add my full name and <email> to the variable? | 01:14 |
| persia | Megaqwerty: Right. | 01:14 |
| minghua | Probably a DEBFULLNAME thing. | 01:14 |
| minghua | (and comments in GPG key id) | 01:15 |
| Megaqwerty | minghua: oh, I should declare DEBFULLNAME? | 01:15 |
| persia | minghua: likely. I always force that in DEBEMAIL, but that's just me. | 01:15 |
| minghua | Hello crimsun and persia BTW. :-) | 01:15 |
| Megaqwerty | nope, I'll just pastebin the requested info. | 01:16 |
| minghua | Megaqwerty: as crimsun said, paste your changelog entry and key uid in pastebin so that people can look. | 01:16 |
| crimsun | hello minghua | 01:16 |
| persia | minghua: Good evening | 01:16 |
| EliasAmaral | In my computer /etc/init.d/rcS do not seem to be executed in initialization (it isn't in /etc/rc*.d), does anyone know why? | 01:17 |
| minghua | Megaqwerty: The point is to make the changelog entry and your gpg key id match, there are multiple ways to achieve it, DEBFULLNAME is one of them. | 01:17 |
| EliasAmaral | I executed stat /etc/rc*.d/*|grep init.d/rcS , it returns nothing | 01:17 |
| minghua | persia: Yeah, it always bother me that dpatch doesn't want to read DEBFULLNAME, maybe I should force it in DEBEMAIL, too. | 01:18 |
| EliasAmaral | (In contrast, stat /etc/rc*.d/*|grep init.d/urandom returns the correct links for urandom) | 01:18 |
| persia | EliasAmaral: You likely want a support channel. I'd suggest checking in #ubuntu or #ubuntu+1 (depending on which release you use) | 01:18 |
| Megaqwerty | http://megaqwerty.pastebin.ca/619703 | 01:18 |
| persia | minghua: Yep. That was one of my motivations. | 01:19 |
| EliasAmaral | persia, you are right, sorry. i am asking here because apparently #ubuntu is so hight-traffic that nobody could see my question | 01:19 |
| persia | Megaqwerty: "(Repository Key" is missing in your changelog, or spuriously added to your key. | 01:19 |
| Megaqwerty | persia: what is the syntax for such? | 01:20 |
| persia | Umm... " (Repository Key) " | 01:20 |
| Megaqwerty | Well...I mean, could you give me an example entry | 01:20 |
| minghua | Megaqwerty: As persia said. Add "(Repository Key)" after your name in changelog can work around it. | 01:20 |
| Megaqwerty | okay | 01:21 |
| persia | Megaqwerty: You just need to make sure the name in the changelog (from DEBEMAIL when using dch) exactly matches the entire name in the gpg key. | 01:21 |
| Megaqwerty | I didn't realize you meant the comment | 01:21 |
| minghua | Megaqwerty: if you want dch/debchange to automatically generate a correct changelog entry for you, you need to adjust some other things. | 01:21 |
| EliasAmaral | There are a documentation about the inicialization of Ubuntu? I am reading http://qref.sourceforge.net/Debian/reference/ch-system.en.html and it says /etc/init.d/rcS must be executed | 01:22 |
| Megaqwerty | that did it, thanks | 01:25 |
| persia | Megaqwerty: Great. | 01:25 |
| Megaqwerty | minghua: how would I get dh_make to automatically do that for me? | 01:25 |
| Megaqwerty | minghua: or is that something I'll just have to change myself every time? | 01:25 |
| minghua | Megaqwerty: Not sure. I personally object using dh_make, and don't know much about it. | 01:25 |
| Megaqwerty | minghua: haha okay. | 01:26 |
| minghua | Megaqwerty: for generate changelog entries after you've already done the initial packaging, you should use dch command. | 01:26 |
| minghua | Megaqwerty: dh_make doesn't help you after the initial packaging anyway (AFAIK). | 01:26 |
| Megaqwerty | minghua: no, I don't believe it does. | 01:27 |
| === persia suggests that the contents of usr/share/debhelper/dh_make/debian/ can be useful reference even when not using dh_make to create a package, and that the result is sometimes easier to get clean than actually executing dh_make | ||

| EliasAmaral | ah. /etc/event.d is the config directory of upstart? | 01:30 |

| crimsun | it's absolutely useful if not absolutely relevant ;) | 01:32 |

| EliasAmaral | update-rc.d and invoke-rc.d still works (ok, now you said that i am not sure..) | 01:34 |
| minghua | Which release did upstart become default? Feisty? | 01:35 |
| Nafallo | edgy | 01:35 |
| crimsun | EliasAmaral: update-rc.d has nothing to do with it. They manage sysvinit-style scripts. Currently upstart provides sysvinit compatibility. | 01:37 |
| EliasAmaral | But sysvinit-style scripts doesn't form the init system on Debian? | 01:37 |
| crimsun | AFAIK they still do, but I don't pretend to follow current *init* dev in Debian. | 01:38 |
| minghua | I think sysvinit is still the default in unstable right now, but there are talks to change the init system. | 01:40 |
| minghua | Debian is usually slow on such kind of changes. | 01:40 |

| jdong | hi Fujitsu | 04:25 |
| jdong | long time no talk :) | 04:25 |
| jdong | how's life been around here? | 04:26 |
| Fujitsu | I've been rather busy with year 12 and work and various other things, so not as much Ubuntu time lately :( | 04:27 |
| jdong | ah | 04:28 |
| jdong | likewise; I've been pretty occupied with other stuff recently too | 04:29 |
| jdong | though my schedule is starting to return to normal again | 04:29 |
| jdong | not to mention I've started to Use The Dark Side (tm) more as I've been on the road... | 04:29 |
| Fujitsu | Noooooo. | 04:30 |
| jdong | lol | 04:30 |
| jdong | it's still *nix though ;-) | 04:30 |
| Fujitsu | OS X? | 04:30 |
| jdong | I will attempt a dual boot setup tomorrow for curiousity's sake, but initial research appears pretty iffy. | 04:30 |
| jdong | yeah, black macbook | 04:31 |
| Fujitsu | Ah. | 04:31 |
| jdong | it's an alright operating system | 04:31 |
| Fujitsu | So I've heard. | 04:31 |
| jdong | the one thing I really appreciate is how well suspend/resume works | 04:31 |
| jdong | quite literally it's done resuming before I can get the lid back up. | 04:31 |
| Fujitsu | They can manage that fairly well with their incredibly restricted hardware. | 04:31 |
| Fujitsu | Wow. | 04:31 |
| jdong | yeah, and I have resumed/suspended in excess of 50 times once, before rebooting for an update | 04:31 |
| jdong | sadly Ubuntu can't do that yet on any of my systems :( | 04:32 |
| jdong | but yeah, their full control over their hardware platform definitely makes this easy for them | 04:32 |
| jdong | but on a trip when my main usecase is mapping software, the macbook is a clear winner... | 04:33 |
| Fujitsu | On the latest kernel my laptop has no problems, but it still takes a few seconds. On older kernels there would occasionally be issues like the LCD not turning on, PS/2 stuff being missing, etc. | 04:33 |
| jdong | i.e. open up every 30 minutes to look at map for 5 minutes | 04:33 |
| jdong | ah, that's very cool | 04:33 |
| jdong | my Ubuntu lappie has an ATI GPU, which is a major PITA for suspend | 04:33 |
| Fujitsu | Ah, I'm all Intel. | 04:33 |
| jdong | it has like a 90% success rate, but when it fails it hardlocks on resume :( | 04:33 |
| jdong | which tends to make me not trust suspend at all | 04:34 |
| jdong | I really want to give Ubuntu a shot on this macbook | 04:34 |
| jdong | just haven't found the time yet to deal with the install procedure | 04:34 |
| jdong | and also, OS X on this thing is Just Work (tm)ing , so I don't have terribly great motivation to change things radically | 04:35 |

| Fujitsu | Last action on it was "cprov 2006/06/22: issues clarified, back to 'review'" | 06:03 |
| Fujitsu | Isn't the encouraging? | 06:03 |
| Hobbsee | heh | 06:04 |
| Hobbsee | probably with the karma review? | 06:04 |
| Hobbsee | then again, i'd prefer him doing the ppa stuff than karma | 06:04 |
| Fujitsu | StevenK: It was published about a minute ago now. | 06:05 |
| Fujitsu | It seems the 0303Z publisher didn't do much. | 06:05 |
| StevenK | I was hoping they'd publish and build while I was lunching. That didn't happen. | 06:06 |
| Fujitsu | Soyuz is very reliable. | 06:06 |
| Fujitsu | I wonder if you'll have the luxury of having the buildmaster queue some builds for you this round? | 06:06 |
| StevenK | Hopefully. | 06:08 |
| Fujitsu | If cron.daily stuffs up the buildmaster often seems to sit around doing nothing for a while. | 06:08 |
| StevenK | That could be IPC screwing up. | 06:09 |

| ScottK | Crutches for her now. | 06:17 |
| Fujitsu | Fun fun. | 06:17 |
| StevenK | Neat. | 06:17 |
| TheMuso | heh | 06:17 |
| StevenK | ScottK: How many stairs? | 06:17 |
| ScottK | She leaves for a two week camp tomorrow, so I wanted to be sure we knew what it was before she left. | 06:18 |
| TheMuso | ouch | 06:18 |
| StevenK | Last time I fell down the stairs, I put my foot through a window. | 06:18 |
| StevenK | (I was about eight) | 06:18 |
| TheMuso | ouch | 06:18 |
| ScottK | StevenK: Not sure. It's a full flight. Dunno where she was when she lost it. | 06:18 |
| StevenK | ScottK: She's okay aside from the sprain? | 06:18 |
| ScottK | Yeah. | 06:18 |
| StevenK | Sprained, and shaken, not stirred? | 06:19 |
| ScottK | She handled it remarkable well. Very mature and controlled. Didn't freak out at all. | 06:19 |
| ScottK | Yeah. | 06:19 |
| StevenK | Camp, with crutches. Fun. | 06:19 |
| ScottK | Yep. Maybe she'll learn something about running on the stairs.... | 06:20 |
| TheMuso | haha | 06:20 |
| Fujitsu | Heheh. | 06:20 |
| StevenK | Heh, maybe. | 06:20 |
| ScottK | Also, it's math/science camp. It's more like going to University than camp. | 06:20 |
| StevenK | I'm bad when it comes to stairs. I will usually go up and down taking two at a time. | 06:21 |
| ScottK | You're legally an adult and responsible for your own actions, so whatever works for you. | 06:21 |

| jdong | :) | 06:51 |
| minghua | Why? Doesn't gcc-4.2 backport overwrites libgcc1 and libstdc++6? | 06:51 |
| jdong | if it didn't generate replacement library packages that weren't named -4.2, it would've worked :D | 06:51 |
| jdong | minghua: that's exactly what they do... | 06:51 |
| === ScottK just read the backports rules where compilers are listed as a strict no no and marked invalid. | ||

| ScottK | jdong: Got a minute to discuss backports triage policy? | 07:04 |
| jdong | ScottK: sure, go ahead | 07:04 |
| ScottK | I was thinking with the new bug status in LP... | 07:05 |
| === ivoks [n=ivoks@5-241.dsl.iskon.hr] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| ScottK | We could make Confirmed mean that the bug has the required information and meets the basic policy requirements - Is ready for testing. | 07:05 |
| ScottK | Then make Triaged mean that the bug has been tested and is thought to be ready to be ack'ed to the archive. | 07:06 |
| ScottK | Does that make sense? | 07:06 |
| jdong | yeah, that makes sense | 07:06 |
| StevenK | Maybe the other way around? | 07:06 |
| jdong | hmm... | 07:06 |
| jdong | actually... | 07:06 |
| jdong | the other way is probably better | 07:06 |
| StevenK | Triaged is "I've looked at it, and it has my rubber stamp" ; Confirmed is "Boot it into the archive" | 07:06 |
| jdong | because people understand already "Confirmed" to mean a successful build attempt | 07:06 |
| ScottK | Well in the heirarchy of LP, Triaged comes after Confirmed. So that would be backwards of the progression Ubuntu uses. | 07:08 |
| ScottK | I agree it makes sense though if you think of the semantics of the actual words. | 07:09 |
| RAOF | What do people think about a new Xgl git snapshot to fix the stuff the new mesa has broken? | 07:09 |
| jdong | RAOF: aww that happened again? :( | 07:09 |
| ScottK | RAOF: What's it going to break? | 07:09 |
| jdong | ScottK: nothing | 07:09 |
| jdong | ScottK: Xgl git snaps don't affect anything outside of them | 07:09 |
| === ScottK has heard that before. | ||
| jdong | ScottK: I was pushing that the last release cycle | 07:09 |
| RAOF | jdong: Xgl doesn't build, due to mesa changes | 07:10 |
| jdong | when Xorg 7.1 broke Xgl into freeze | 07:10 |
| ScottK | Then I'd say go for it. | 07:10 |
| jdong | RAOF: I'd fully support that | 07:10 |
| jdong | RAOF: and I don't think anyone else would object | 07:10 |
| RAOF | So, git head, or cherry pick the minimal fix? | 07:10 |
| jdong | git head | 07:10 |
| jdong | there's usually enough merit in bugfixes to do that anyway | 07:11 |

| RAOF | jdong: Can you remember offhand the git command to get _just_ Xgl from git? | 07:13 |
| jdong | RAOF: IIRC you needed to git clone git-clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver, then git checkout xgl-0-0-1 | 07:14 |
| jdong | RAOF: let me check on that... | 07:14 |
| RAOF | Aaah, git checkout. Of course | 07:16 |
| jdong | yeah, confirmed, clone all of xserver, then checkout xgl-0-0-1 | 07:16 |

| StevenK | Hrrm? | 07:21 |

| Fujitsu | There's a whole lot of mailing list specs targetted for 1.1.[78] | 07:21 |
| Fujitsu | ScottK: Probably a lot of bug breakage. | 07:21 |
| ScottK | Handy having the bug system broken at release time. Cuts down on the bugs we have to worry about. | 07:22 |
| Fujitsu | Yep. | 07:22 |

| jdong | TheMuso: that works too | 08:00 |
| Amaranth | RAOF: it does lots of magic to find Qt and KDE stuff | 08:00 |

| RAOF | jdong: Does gdebi parse the versions on the build deps now? | 08:01 |
| minghua | Does KDE3 use cmake? | 08:01 |

| Amaranth | RAOF: and only like 3 guys know how the whole damn KDE3 setup works | 08:02 |
| Amaranth | minghua: no, only KDE4 | 08:02 |
| RAOF | Heh | 08:02 |
| minghua | Amaranth: Thanks. | 08:02 |
| jdong | wheee | 08:03 |
| jdong | http://18.96.7.12:3000/inventory/view_log/37#end | 08:03 |
| jdong | it seems to be building okay | 08:03 |
| Amaranth | yay the libwnck dependency was relaxed | 08:03 |
| === jdong wonders why kicker is needed to build this modular compiz :D | ||
| Amaranth | jdong: compiz builds compiz, compiz-core, compiz-gnome, compiz-kde, and compiz-plugins | 08:04 |
| jdong | ah, ok, that make sense | 08:04 |
| Amaranth | so it needs gconf and all it's deps and kdebase-dev | 08:04 |
| jdong | alright ,all you debian architects out there | 08:04 |
| Amaranth | which basically pulls in KDE | 08:05 |
| jdong | the enxt thing we need are metasource packages :D | 08:05 |
| jdong | that pull in a bunch of source packages for build :D | 08:05 |
| Fujitsu | Amaranth: There is (well, was) beryl-settings, beryl-settings-simple, beryl-settings-bindings... I've got no idea why they were split. | 08:05 |
| Fujitsu | minghua: The creator of a legendary sources.list involved dozens of unofficial breakage-prone repositories. | 08:06 |
| jdong | Fujitsu: doesn't he also maintain the automatic svnbuild repos of all the eyecandy? | 08:06 |
| minghua | Fujitsu: I see. I still have that skull wallpaper. :-) | 08:06 |
| Amaranth | The one that got lots of people mad when someone noticed their repo in there and locked you to a skull and crossbones wallpaper. | 08:06 |
| Amaranth | heh | 08:06 |
| Fujitsu | minghua: That's the one. | 08:06 |
| Amaranth | jdong: yeah | 08:06 |
| jdong | that was even incompatible with the other 3rd party eyecandy repos? | 08:07 |
| jdong | ah, that one :) | 08:07 |
| === Fujitsu remembers the discussion that led to that wallpaper. | ||
| jdong | I think he's in one of my sources.lists | 08:07 |
| Amaranth | His compiz packages include wacky junk like making dropdowns translucent (which breaks java apps) and copy-mode rendering (which breaks ABI from upstream) | 08:07 |
| Fujitsu | And then everybody said we should banish [owner of the skull wallpaper repo] from the community for being evil. | 08:07 |
| === ScottK is probably going to get banished for being evil eventually. | ||
| === Fujitsu banishes ScottK for good measure. | ||
| === ScottK will get you for that. | ||
| Fujitsu | Darn. | 08:12 |
| jdong | Amaranth: bad news on wnck :( | 08:12 |
| jdong | http://18.96.7.12:3000/inventory/view_log/37#end | 08:12 |
| jdong | FTBFS | 08:12 |
| Amaranth | jdong: yeah, already saw | 08:12 |
| Amaranth | i wonder what trevinho does | 08:13 |
| jdong | Amaranth: err, IIRC he ships wnck | 08:13 |
| Amaranth | uh | 08:13 |
| Amaranth | the wnck you'd need has a different ABI | 08:13 |
| jdong | Amaranth: has anyone told him that? :D | 08:13 |
| Amaranth | ah, our old patch | 08:15 |
| Amaranth | #define wnck_window_get_geometry wnck_window_get_client_window_geometry | 08:15 |
| jdong | mmm. | 08:15 |
| Amaranth | i guess i'll have to get mvo to stick that back into our package | 08:16 |
| Amaranth | unless i can find another core-dev to do it for me :) | 08:16 |
| Amaranth | wait, that's the wrong way around :P | 08:16 |

| === gnomefreak would find out who jay camp is and ask him since he packaged the pre release | ||

| man-di_ | persia: as both distros are broken in the same way | 12:05 |
| persia | man-di_: Can we do that? I thought that the control file needed to be regenerated for Ubuntu. | 12:05 |
| man-di_ | persia: that is why a merge is needed, and not a sync | 12:06 |
| persia | man-di_: Ah. Sorry: I misread "merge" as sync. Sounds good. | 12:06 |
| man-di_ | the whole problem began because I filed a sync request ... I dont wanna repeat this fault | 12:07 |
| persia | man-di_: It's probably good in the long run: it's better to find the larger issue from the small mistake, as otherwise it just festers... | 12:11 |
| man-di_ | right | 12:14 |
| man-di_ | the good thing is that I found the ecj build issue, otherweise eclipse would be NBS now (and I dont know if thats tested so often) | 12:14 |
| persia | man-di_: I think the NBS reports are run every 6 hours or so, but I'm not absolutely sure. Having eclipse NBS would be a little odd :) | 12:16 |
| man-di_ | every six hours? eclipse alone takes 2 hours to build here | 12:17 |
| man-di_ | aah, NBS is only checking build dependencies, not actively building packages | 12:18 |

I'm likely to stop responding to specific requests soon :) Secondly, without looking, I'd think that 0.6.1-4ubuntu1 would be a better choice. You probably want to check with the defauly behaviour of dch -i (which you should be using for changelog updates), or perhaps dpkg --compare-versions. | 12:23 |

| TheMuso | persia: Dunno. I just lost connectivity between all machines. | 02:36 |
| Hobbsee | no, no, me dumping stuff on REVU. not taking stuff off it | 02:36 |
| persia | TheMuso: Very odd. Any recent updates? | 02:37 |
| Hobbsee | Kmos: besides, going thru your package would require a fine toothed comb, iirc. | 02:37 |
| TheMuso | persia: No. Anyway, back on now. | 02:37 |
| persia | Hobbsee: Right. If you dump things, and annouce them, we're more likely to advocate today than other days :) | 02:37 |
| Jazzva | persia: Did that. I'm already building it from source, but then I got a question am I using the package they provided. I think I read somewhere that if it's a new package then it has to be built from source (but maybe I just imagined that :)). | 02:37 |
| Hobbsee | persia: :P | 02:38 |
| persia | Jazzva: Yes. Packages in the repositories must be built from source. | 02:38 |

| Kmos | :-) | 02:55 |
| Kmos | this ipkungfu is easy one.. just a little patch | 02:56 |
| Kmos | to change /bin/sh to /bin/bash | 02:56 |
| Hobbsee | why not just fix the bashisms? | 02:56 |
| Hobbsee | that's the usual protocol for such things | 02:56 |
| Kmos | it's in bash | 02:57 |
| Kmos | but the author use /bin/sh on first line of init.d scirpt | 02:57 |
| Kmos | script | 02:57 |
| Hobbsee | yes, i realise that, but why not change the bashisms so it actually runs wiht /bin/sh? | 02:57 |
| ScottK | Hobbsee: I hope not too. The last one doesn't encourage, but we'll see. | 02:57 |
| Hobbsee | ScottK: with any luck, the cds will be built before the rollout, and we wont have to respin. but, we'll see | 02:58 |
| Kmos | Hobbsee: it's more easy to change all the code to work with sh or just change one line ? | 02:58 |
| Kmos | and the ipkungfu script is in bash | 02:58 |
| man-di_ | Kmos: nobody said you should go the easiest way | 02:58 |
| Kmos | man-di_: yeah. but the standard author way =) | 02:59 |
| Hobbsee | er, i may be incorrect here....but, is that run during boot, where the only shell available is sh? | 03:00 |
| Hobbsee | or, possibly run during boot, where /bin/sh is the only script? | 03:00 |
| persia | Hobbsee: Depends on which runlevel: probably not. | 03:01 |

| persia | Kmos: Perhaps it's not compliant with the latest policy? Alternately, my memory could be incorrect. | 03:04 |

| StevenK | -w and -c do different things. | 03:19 |

| Q-FUNK | I was comparing https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Hopeful/Recruitment and http://www.ubuntu.com/community/processes/newmember/ but I'm confused as to which one I'm supposed to follow. | 03:21 |
| Q-FUNK | Especially seeing as most of my work is doen on the Debian side of things. | 03:21 |
| Hobbsee | Q-FUNK: is that ubuntu membership, vs motu? | 03:22 |
| jpatrick | Q-FUNK: you need to be a member first, in order to become an MOTU (iirc) | 03:22 |
| persia | jpatrick: No such restriction, although it's easier to become a member than a MOTU, and working with MOTU is a good way to show contributions towards membership. | 03:22 |
| jpatrick | persia: ok, got it, haven't been around for a while :) | 03:23 |
| Hobbsee | jpatrick: i believe it used to be that way :P | 03:24 |
| persia | jpatrick: No worries. In practice, you're correct, as anyone who would be considered an acceptable MOTU must meet the requirements as an acceptable member as well. | 03:24 |
| === persia also understands it used to be that way | ||
| === Hobbsee wonders if jpatrick will hold the record of being the youngest core dev too, at some point. | ||
| Q-FUNK | I'm mainly wondering whether I need to show up at any IRC meeting. oen metions that everything is done by e-mail, the other seems more involved. | 03:24 |
| jpatrick | Hobbsee: I found something to do, but I need to earn my MOTU powers back | 03:24 |
| Hobbsee | jpatrick: oh, you revoked them? damn | 03:24 |

| Hobbsee | but they may require proof that you're the actual jpatrick, etc | 03:25 |
| StevenK | Fujitsu: I think I have a cassette deck older than you. :-P | 03:25 |
| jpatrick | Hobbsee: cloak? lol | 03:25 |
| Hobbsee | jpatrick: probably an encrypted mail, etc. | 03:26 |
| Hobbsee | jpatrick: anywya, if you need sponsorship, you're welcome to it | 03:26 |
| StevenK | Signed would do it, I think | 03:26 |
| StevenK | Since signing requires the private key | 03:26 |
| Hobbsee | StevenK: then again, they were wanting \sh to actually present himself at a conference, when they were being very pedantic | 03:26 |
| jpatrick | Hobbsee: first, I need to find a REVU admin that's still around | 03:26 |
| Hobbsee | jpatrick: what for? | 03:26 |
| Q-FUNK | adding to the confusion, I already signed the code of conduct. it's listed on my launchpad page. | 03:26 |
| jpatrick | Hobbsee: forgot old key's pass :( made a new one | 03:27 |
| persia | Q-FUNK: That's a good first step: you'd need to have done that for either application. | 03:27 |
| Hobbsee | jpatrick: as in, new key? | 03:27 |
| StevenK | Oh my stars! arb fails to build because our gcc is not one of x listed versions. | 03:27 |
| persia | jpatrick: Is your new key on LP Yet? | 03:27 |
| jpatrick | persia: yep | 03:27 |
| Fujitsu | StevenK: Niice! | 03:27 |
| Hobbsee | jpatrick: throw it on revu, be in the ubuntu-universe-contributors team, and i'll resync. | 03:27 |
| Hobbsee | i dont think that was there, during dapper...iirc, the keys were done manually | 03:27 |
| Q-FUNK | I think thereneeds to be a cleanup. between ubuntero, member, core dev and motu - too many categories and a not so clear poitn of entry. | 03:28 |
| jpatrick | Hobbsee: joined | 03:28 |
| persia | Hobbsee: Yep, it was manual then. | 03:28 |
| Hobbsee | oh yes, that's right, and ajmitch had a go at me for it. | 03:28 |
| Fujitsu | Q-FUNK: They are all very well defined... | 03:28 |
| eagles0513875 | persia: u identified dude cuz i got a question and i dont want to take the channel off topic | 03:28 |
| Hobbsee | eagles0513875: /whois him.... | 03:28 |
| eagles0513875 | Hobbsee: ? | 03:29 |
| Hobbsee | Q-FUNK: shouldnt be that complicated, is all explained under !contribute | 03:29 |
| persia | Q-FUNK: That's partially intentional. The only restrictions in place are that you must be ubuntero to join most closed teams (code of conduct), and that you must be motu to be core-dev. membership is parallel. | 03:29 |
| Hobbsee | eagles0513875: to see if he's identified or not | 03:29 |
| Q-FUNK | Fujitsu: i don't think i would be asking for clarification if things were so well defined. :) | 03:29 |
| eagles0513875 | ahhh ok ty Hobbsee | 03:29 |
| persia | eagles0513875: Are you sure it needs to be me? For most things, asking in the channel would be better :) | 03:30 |

| Q-FUNK | persia: see, from the outside, the order appears to be ubunttero -> motu -> dev -> core-dev | 03:30 |
| persia | Q-FUNK: That would be correct. | 03:30 |
| Hobbsee | Q-FUNK: dev wasnt in your original lsit | 03:30 |
| StevenK | motu and dev are the same | 03:30 |
| StevenK | motu == ubuntu-dev | 03:31 |
| Hobbsee | where motu also includes the core devs | 03:31 |
| jpatrick | Hobbsee: I don't remember being a core dev.. | 03:31 |
| persia | Q-FUNK: Right. Sorry. Drop "dev". ~ubuntu-dev ~ MOTU + core | 03:31 |
| Hobbsee | i thought they were depreciating the term MOTU | 03:31 |
| Hobbsee | jpatrick: no, i meant in the future | 03:31 |
| persia | Hobbsee: No, MOTU is still used, it's just not appropriate to describe developers, but rather the team that cooperates here. | 03:32 |
| Hobbsee | ah right, so they're depreciating ubuntu-dev | 03:32 |
| jpatrick | Hobbsee: well I have two months free for now, then I got "study, study, study" according to what everyone says | 03:32 |
| eagles0513875 | persia: im afraid it would take the channel off topic | 03:32 |
| Q-FUNK | so, unclear entry point and unclear whether I need to show up for an IRC meeitng as per http://www.ubuntu.com/community/processes/newmember/ or whetehr e-mail is enough as per https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Hopeful/Recruitment | 03:32 |
| eagles0513875 | persia: but if u insist | 03:32 |
| Hobbsee | jpatrick: heh. they said that to me, too. i'm not really following it though :P | 03:32 |
| Hobbsee | jpatrick: but you should be good and study, yes | 03:32 |
| Hobbsee | Q-FUNK: what are you tryign to go for? | 03:33 |
| Q-FUNK | please bear in mind that i'm a regular so if I'm confused, think how others must see this | 03:33 |
| Hobbsee | Q-FUNK: membership, or MOTU? | 03:33 |
| persia | Hobbsee: I didn't think that was the case either. I think ubuntu-dev was intended to be used to describe the developers in general, without reference to universe vs. main. Anyway, I'm confused. | 03:33 |
| Hobbsee | heh, right | 03:33 |
| white | Hobbsee: so when can I expect you here in good old Melbourne? At least you could visit Melbourne this semester ... ;) | 03:34 |
| Q-FUNK | I think that simplifying this to dev=universe and core-deve=main might make this easier to grasp for everyone | 03:34 |
| Fujitsu | Q-FUNK: We just moved away from dev=universe in February or so, AFAICR | 03:34 |
| StevenK | Q-FUNK: However, http://www.ubuntu.com/community/processes/newmember describes the Membership processes, where as https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Hopeful/Recruitment talks about recruiting people into MOTU, which are two seperate and distinct processes | 03:34 |
| Hobbsee | white: melbourne is cold, and i dislike it | 03:34 |
| Q-FUNK | great. more confusion. | 03:35 |
| persia | Q-FUNK: No: many core-devs also work in universe - we tried that, and it added to the confusion. | 03:35 |
| white | Hobbsee: well yes, but we have some cool debian/ubuntu people here ;) | 03:35 |
| Hobbsee | Q-FUNK: also, core devs are also devs, as in, people who can upload to main can also upload to universe... | 03:35 |
| Hobbsee | white: maybe. you guys should come up here | 03:35 |
| white | Hobbsee: and i dislike cold as well. Now it is getting very hot back home :( | 03:35 |
| Hobbsee | awww | 03:35 |
| Q-FUNK | persia: core-dev can work anywhere by definition, but have exclusive dibs over main, isn't it? | 03:35 |

| Q-FUNK | persia: there is a link to the member page from the motu page I showed, suggesting that general crieteria apply. and yet joining motu only requires an e-mail, while becoming a membe ris a more elaborate process. | 03:40 |
| StevenK | elkbuntu: Sorry, you're the first person I thought of that's a member but not a developer. :-) | 03:40 |
| elkbuntu | StevenK, no prob :) | 03:40 |
| Hobbsee | Q-FUNK: you've showed many pages - which page were you referring to? | 03:40 |
| persia | Hobbsee: There's no reason why non-members shouldn't contribute, and there's no restriction on membership for any teams. I don't see how it's relevant. | 03:40 |
| elkbuntu | im just going insane trying to join some avi's together | 03:41 |
| persia | Q-FUNK: Which page? | 03:41 |
| Hobbsee | persia: true - i just note that it's not there, when it used to be | 03:41 |

| StevenK | elkbuntu: If so, there's a tool called mpgcat | 03:41 |
| Q-FUNK | persia: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Hopeful/Recruitment | 03:41 |
| Hobbsee | persia: probably. clearly i havent looked at the page in that long :P | 03:41 |
| Hobbsee | neither my wiki page | 03:41 |
| elkbuntu | StevenK, the problem isnt the joining them, it is the getting them all the same fps, size, audio etc | 03:41 |
| StevenK | Heh, my wiki page is also collecting lots of dust. | 03:41 |
| StevenK | elkbuntu: Eww | 03:42 |
| persia | Hobbsee: I'm probably biased though, given the nature of my participation in ~ubuntu-members | 03:42 |
| elkbuntu | StevenK, yeah | 03:42 |
| StevenK | It's ~ubuntumembers, actually | 03:42 |
| Hobbsee | Q-FUNK: oh, member of the motu team, that bit is | 03:42 |
| StevenK | Yay for consistancy | 03:42 |
| Hobbsee | heh | 03:42 |
| persia | Q-FUNK: That's a use/mention distinction. In that context "membership" refers to membership in the MOTU team, not Ubuntu membership. | 03:42 |
| Hobbsee | well, it's otherwise referenced as "team member", whihc, although it's an evil workism, is reasonably clear | 03:43 |
| Q-FUNK | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Hopeful/Recruitment links to http://www.ubuntu.com/community/processes/newmember as general criteria to meet before applying to motu | 03:43 |
| persia | Q-FUNK: Yes. If you don't meet the criteria for membership, you cannot be a MOTU, as being a MOTU automatically grants membership if it was not previously granted. | 03:44 |
| Q-FUNK | persia: again, that doesn't answer my question. do I just need to update my wiki page and send an -email to the address mentioned there for motu or must I also show up for an IRC meeting of the comunity council as mentioned in newmember? | 03:45 |
| Hobbsee | there we go, clearer now | 03:45 |
| Hobbsee | Q-FUNK: you have to do membership first. | 03:45 |
| Hobbsee | if you're not already a member | 03:45 |
| Hobbsee | which is the irc meeting with the CC, etc | 03:45 |
| === Vorian [n=steve@ubuntu/member/Vorian] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| persia | Q-FUNK: Depends on what you want. If you want to join MOTU, you'll want to have several MOTUs tell you to apply first: if that has happened, sending the mail is fine. If you want membership, or haven't yet met all the criteria for MOTU, the CC meeting is the way to go. | 03:46 |
| persia | Hobbsee: Not true. One can go from non-member to MOTU, if one works with MOTU enough. | 03:46 |
| Fujitsu | Was the MOTU Council granted that right? I don't recall. | 03:47 |
| Hobbsee | persia: that sounds...very racy. | 03:47 |
| Hobbsee | i didnt think it was | 03:47 |
| persia | Fujitsu: Yes. | 03:47 |
| Fujitsu | It was going to be granted after a trial period, I thought. | 03:47 |
| Q-FUNK | getting back to the specifics of my case, I mention packages in Debian and also track bugs on Ubuntu for them. I run a mixture of Debian and Ubuntu on my cluster. | 03:47 |

| Q-FUNK | or actually, I think the advice came from a core-dev who presumed that I was already DD, until I had asked him to sponsor an upload to debian thatmerged ubuntu fixes. | 03:50 |
| persia | Q-FUNK: You could apply, but generally the preference is for those working directly on Ubuntu. Membership is one of the ways to show this, and would help your application. | 03:51 |
| === Hobbsee notes that people will tend to veto if they're not sure of a person's ability for uploading, and understanding the ways MOTU works. | ||
| Q-FUNK | persia: I work on both. i just merge the fixes directly into Debian. | 03:52 |
| persia | Q-FUNK: My apologies: I mean no offense. I'm not familiar with your work, so I'm just spewing generalities in hopes that it will help you make a decision. | 03:53 |
| StevenK | Which, strictly speaking, isn't contributing directly to Ubuntu ... | 03:54 |
| Q-FUNK | StevenK: my activity level on launchpad speaks for itself. | 03:54 |
| Fujitsu | Upload privileges are granted to those who need to upload. Merging fixes into Debian doesn't require that, I don't think. | 03:55 |
| persia | Q-FUNK: Be careful: defensiveness about one's readiness has previously been raised as grounds for delaying approval to MOTU. | 03:55 |
| Hobbsee | Q-FUNK: got anything that you currently need reviewing? | 03:56 |
| Q-FUNK | Hobbsee: nope. | 03:57 |
| Hobbsee | that's helpful. | 03:57 |
| Q-FUNK | persia: I'm ok with that. | 03:58 |
| Q-FUNK | Hobbsee: :) | 03:59 |
| Q-FUNK | Hobbsee: why did you ask? | 04:00 |
| Hobbsee | Q-FUNK: was looking to sponsor some of your stuff, so then i could put in a more concrete opinion, if/when you apply for MOTU. | 04:01 |
| === elektranox [n=elektran@p5481E4B1.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| Q-FUNK | Hobbsee: mpitt is my usual sponsor for Ubuntu-specific uploads. we co-maintian packages in both distros. | 04:02 |
| elektranox | can somebody review my package? (http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?upid=5902) | 04:02 |
| Hobbsee | Q-FUNK: right | 04:02 |
| Q-FUNK | Hobbsee: I had a fairly extensive discussion of NM vs MOTU and DD vs UD issues with him. you're welcome to ask him for a sumary of my views and for his appreciation of my packages. | 04:04 |
| persia | Q-FUNK: The key is that you want to get as many MOTUs as possible to sponsor you, and say good things. One person with excellent opinions won't help as much. | 04:04 |
| Hobbsee | Q-FUNK: oh, i will be, if you put in an application | 04:05 |
| Hobbsee | as will i be mentioning how much you tend to work with others, and the MOTU team. | 04:05 |
| Q-FUNK | persia: as I do most of my uploads via Debian to avoid deltas, that would require other MOTU members who also sponsor my packages on Debian to vouch for me. | 04:07 |
| StevenK | There aren't many MOTU who can do that. | 04:08 |
| Q-FUNK | The glass is at least half-full. there _are_ some. :) | 04:09 |
| persia | Q-FUNK: Hmm.. Yes, it would. That makes it hard for you to get the community support required for MOTU. I'd suggest applying for membership, with a good Future Plans, and demonstrating implementation. You might also try to get a couple specs in for gutsy+1, and get them implemented. That might make up for the lack of direct uploads to Ubuntu. | 04:09 |
| Hobbsee | sounds like you need to go thru NM and such, and get to DD, more than getting MOTU, imo. i may be wrong. | 04:09 |
| StevenK | Discounting core-devs, I can't think of any. | 04:10 |
| persia | Q-FUNK: Separately, if you're uploading to Debian, rather than Ubuntu, how would MOTU help? | 04:10 |
| Hobbsee | i cant see how having upload rights to universe here, will actually help you with what you do | 04:10 |
| Q-FUNK | there's occasional forks I need to manage, whenever Debian practices differ from Ubuntu. | 04:14 |
| === thekorn [n=thekorn@a89-182-23-48.net-htp.de] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| persia | Q-FUNK: About how many packages? Also, does the sponsors queue not work well for you? | 04:15 |
| Q-FUNK | likewise when a fix won't make it to Debian because of a freeze, but would still have time to make it to Ubuntu. | 04:15 |
| Q-FUNK | persia: point taken. I could try REVU whenever I have Ubuntu-specific fixes. | 04:16 |
| persia | Q-FUNK: Alternately, if it's small, just attach a debdiff against the Debian package to a bug, and subscribe ubuntu-universe-sponsors. If it's only Ubuntu, attach a debdiff against the latest Ubuntu package, and subscribe the same team. If it's a main package, you'll want ubuntu-main-sponsors instead. | 04:17 |
| blueCommand | Hello, I'm trying to build a package from REVU, but pbuilder says "E: Couldn't find package wine-dev". That package is installed, but I guess I need to do something else since it uses a fakeroot, correct? | 04:20 |

| Q-FUNK | blueCommand: is it in your build-depends? | 04:21 |
| geser | blueCommand: is universe enabled in your pbuilder? | 04:21 |
| persia | Q-FUNK: You're welcome to do that, but there's only intensive effort to upload from REVU once a week. You'll get a faster response from bugs (and it's easier for us to review, which makes us happy). | 04:21 |
| blueCommand | Q-FUNK, Bear with me, you mean for the package? | 04:22 |

| persia | Baby: Great. The easiest trigger is to report a bug against Ubuntu (no package) with content that matches the bugs for snowballz and whichwayisup.

| Hobbsee | persia: i dont have archive access, anyway | 05:44 |
| Baby | what's requestsync? | 05:45 |
| persia | Hobbsee: If you like. Given the number of games that Baby watches, I'd think practice with the process would be good, but that's just me (and I really should go stick dh_icons in a bunch of places and request syncs). | 05:45 |
| Hobbsee | Baby: a script that requests a sync of ubuntu packages | 05:45 |
| persia | Baby: It's a command line interface to report a sync bug. | 05:45 |
| Baby | aps! cool! | 05:45 |
| Hobbsee | persia: true | 05:45 |
| Nafallo | hi Baby :-) | 05:46 |
| Hobbsee | Baby: it's in our devscripts. make sure, if you use it, that you specify with -s, which means you need a sponsor | 05:46 |

| Baby | dh_iconcache does not exist in debian, does it? | 05:48 |
| elkbuntu | yep, you should | 05:48 |
| Baby | so we should need to add it conditionally | 05:48 |
| Baby | if dh_iconcache exists then call it, or something like that, so it's compatible with both | 05:48 |
| persia | Baby: No, but dh_icons does (as I understand it), and Ubuntu dh_iconcache has been rewritten to call dh_icons. | 05:48 |
| Baby | aha | 05:49 |

| Baby | what i did was getting the original gimp version that was referred as the point of the fork | 05:57 |
| Baby | and made a diff against it | 05:57 |
| Baby | and the diff was too hacky to be considered seriously | 05:57 |
| Baby | even though some parts of it made sense, like the new XML trees and so | 05:58 |
| Baby | what scared me was all the changes inside the _("") gettext lines | 05:58 |
| Baby | instead of making them in the .po | 05:58 |
| persia | Umm.. That's an interesting way to do it. | 05:59 |

| sommer | Hey all, I have a quick question about package control files that's probably a noob question but: | 06:36 |
| sommer | what does the (= ${Source-Version}) part mean? | 06:36 |
| sommer | the package's source? | 06:37 |
| guest | I'm having problems with a package currently on REVU for comments. Anyone here prepared to give some advice? | 06:37 |
| Hobbsee | sommer: means the same as the source version of the package | 06:38 |
| Hobbsee | so, say the source package is 3.2-0ubuntu1, then that will depend on app with the version of 3.2-0ubuntu1 | 06:39 |
| Hobbsee | and break on any other versino | 06:39 |
| sommer | Hobbsee: that's sort of what I was thinking, but wanted to make sure. Thanks for the info | 06:39 |
| Hobbsee | sommer: no problem :) | 06:39 |
| guest | The problem is that I'm packaging my own source, so it's a native package with no diff file. Based on the comments on previous versions of the package, there seem to be some concerns with this approach, but I'm not sure exactly what they are. | 06:44 |

| guest | Can you please explain why the package should not be native? It's a pain to move the debian dir into a diff, and I don't understand why it's necessary. | 06:54 |
| Baby | Hobbsee: do you have some time to teach me how to ask for the sync? :) | 06:54 |
| Hobbsee | Baby: using the requestsync script? | 06:54 |
| Hobbsee | or by hand? | 06:54 |
| Baby | the easiest way :) | 06:54 |
| Baby | :P | 06:54 |
| Hobbsee | hehe | 06:55 |

| Baby | .diff changes over debian/ are a pain in the ass.... | 06:56 |
| Baby | then, if you change something in the packaging, you won't need to make a new release... | 06:56 |

| Hobbsee | done. | 07:09 |
| Hobbsee | i dont think they'll reject that | 07:09 |
| Baby | thanks!! :) | 07:09 |
| Hobbsee | as in, it doesnt say "no ubuntu changes", but it does say "new package to ubuntu" which syas the same thing | 07:10 |
| Hobbsee | says the component to sync from | 07:10 |
| Baby | can we subscribe persia and nightrose to that bug report too? | 07:10 |
| Hobbsee | done | 07:10 |
| Baby | thanks!!! :)))))))))) | 07:10 |
| Hobbsee | see the left hand pane, about half way down | 07:10 |
| Hobbsee | no problem :) | 07:11 |
| === Hobbsee prefers to just be lasy and use requestsync :P | ||

| tuxmaniac | w00t! Intel joins the OLPC project | 07:12 |
| Hobbsee | ask them to merge the accounts, if you want | 07:12 |
| Baby | once with my yahoo mail and once with my gmail one :P | 07:12 |
| Hobbsee | ahhh | 07:12 |
| Hobbsee | oh, you can merge them yourself then | 07:12 |
| Hobbsee | if you have access to both | 07:12 |
| Baby | that would be great :) | 07:13 |
| Hobbsee | Baby: login to teh one that you want to kepe, go to the other one, and there should be something about "this is me, merge my account" | 07:13 |
| Hobbsee | i wonder if that's only for uploads to debian, where phantom people have been created | 07:13 |
| Hobbsee | oh, ick. teaching it about incomming would be kinda hard, as you cant just use rmadison for that | 07:14 |
| Baby | I'm still deciding which one I want to be my master account | 07:15 |
| Hobbsee | ahhh | 07:15 |
| Baby | I guess it makes more sense that it is yahoo's, as it is the one I sign my packages with | 07:15 |
| Baby | even though gmail is much better | 07:16 |
| Hobbsee | well, you can add multiple addresses to your key too, you know... | 07:16 |
| Baby | yup... sometime I'll find out how anyway ;) | 07:16 |

| Hobbsee | "exit", say yes you want to save. done. resend key to keyservers. | 07:17 |
| Baby | I'll use yahoo's | 07:17 |
| Hobbsee | you can change the primary mail on it anyway | 07:17 |
| Baby | OK, I'm in :) | 07:17 |
| Hobbsee | after you merge accounts. | 07:17 |
| Baby | now what? :) | 07:17 |
| Hobbsee | which is the account you want to merge into yours? | 07:17 |
| Baby | my master one is little_miry@yahoo.es , and the one I want to merge is little.miry@gmail.com | 07:18 |
| Hobbsee | which is the launchpad ID of the latter one? | 07:19 |
| Hobbsee | oh, found it | 07:19 |
| Hobbsee | oh darn. because you've actually registered both yourself, you cant magically merge them, i dont think | 07:19 |

| ajmitch | don't count on 'revu' being default | 11:45 |
| === Amaranth [n=travis@ubuntu/member/Amaranth] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| blueCommand | I did dput revu *.changes | 11:45 |
| === ajmitch can see that they're not there, and unless they were manually removed in the last 15 minutes, they never got there | ||
| blueCommand | Hm | 11:46 |
| blueCommand | Now I can resubmit them | 11:46 |
| ajmitch | ah no | 11:46 |
| blueCommand | I couldn't back then | 11:46 |
| ajmitch | they were removed by a cron job | 11:46 |
| ajmitch | the mail just took its time to get here | 11:46 |
| blueCommand | Hehe, ok :) | 11:46 |
| blueCommand | Reason? | 11:46 |
| ajmitch | please make sure you upload source-only packages | 11:46 |
| blueCommand | i.e no debs? | 11:47 |
| ajmitch | yes | 11:47 |
| ajmitch | never upload an i386.changes file, there's a cron job that will just kill those | 11:47 |
| blueCommand | gotcha, you will probably have one other "binary" package soon though, since I did a re-submit :) | 11:47 |
| ajmitch | removed it | 11:48 |
| blueCommand | there we go | 11:51 |
| elektranox | still nobody who would review my package? | 11:52 |
| === Jazzva [n=sasa@cable-89-216-184-157.dynamic.sbb.co.yu] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| blueCommand | You need to be a "reviewer" for that right? | 11:52 |
| blueCommand | Otherwise I would gladly do it | 11:52 |
| ScottK | blueCommand: If you know enough about packaging, feel free to offer unofficial suggestions. Just make clear you are not a MOTU when you do it. | 11:53 |
| blueCommand | ScottK, Ah what the hell, there is no better way to learn than by doing, right? :) | 11:53 |
| ScottK | Just don't over-reach. If you aren't sure, let them know and don't lead them in the wrong direction. | 11:54 |
| blueCommand | ScottK, Nono, I will just try to review it. Don't worry :) | 11:55 |
| elektranox | ok this way the final reviewers have less work :) | 11:55 |
| elektranox | http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?upid=6021 | 11:55 |
| blueCommand | elektranox, already building :) | 11:56 |
| === RainCT [n=RainCT@77.210.69.117] has left #ubuntu-motu [] | ||
| === phanatic [n=phanatic@212.2.21.2] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| blueCommand | Oh right. If somebody could review: | 12:04 |
| blueCommand | http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?upid=6023 | 12:04 |
| blueCommand | and http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?upid=6024 | 12:04 |
| blueCommand | elektranox, You're looking fine so far, atleast through this reviewing guide ;-D | 12:04 |
| === xtknight [n=xtknight@c-68-43-120-159.hsd1.mi.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| elektranox | :) | 12:05 |
| xtknight | so if i wanted to make an app for Gutsy, this would be the right channel to be in? | 12:05 |
| Burgundavia_ | xtknight: sort of | 12:06 |
| xtknight | i was thinking of implenting an idea in the IdeaPool | 12:06 |
| Burgundavia_ | xtknight: which one? | 12:06 |
| xtknight | Burgundavia_, a hardware advisor that lets you know if your hardware is supported on ubuntu. it would be a C/C++ windows program that could run on 2000/xp/vista | 12:06 |
| Burgundavia_ | ah | 12:06 |
| blueCommand | elektranox, Did you change the orig? | 12:06 |
| Burgundavia_ | that would be an interesting challenge | 12:07 |
| blueCommand | elektranox, I get diffrent MD5sums from the SF.net one and yours | 12:07 |
| ScottK | But this probably isn't the place to get Windows programming help. | 12:07 |
| xtknight | actually if you just grab the pci ids from windows and then compare them against the ubuntu pciids youve basiccally got it | 12:07 |
| xtknight | ah no im good with the win32 api | 12:07 |
| Burgundavia_ | another way you could do it would be to build it into the installer | 12:08 |
| elektranox | mh I'm not sure - I think I'll just download the SF.net ones | 12:08 |
| xtknight | i'd actually rather it be separate (i bet they would too) | 12:08 |
| xtknight | maybe it could be on the autorun.exe for the ubuntu cd | 12:08 |
| Burgundavia_ | xtknight: for that kind of stuff, I recommend you chat with colin watson or evan dandrea | 12:08 |
| blueCommand | elektranox, I will see if I can get a diff | 12:08 |
| === PhinnFort [n=martin@cC3ED5AC1.dhcp.bluecom.no] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| Burgundavia_ | xtknight: they are cjwatson and evand on irc | 12:09 |
| xtknight | so you stick in the ubuntu cd in windows and it brings it up, but it doesnt interfere with install or anytihng | 12:09 |
| xtknight | Burgundavia_, okay thanks | 12:09 |
| xtknight | ill prolly have to do this later, just wanted to check | 12:09 |
| Burgundavia_ | xtknight: another good way is to start the spec process | 12:09 |
| Burgundavia_ | xtknight: are you familiar with that? | 12:09 |
| xtknight | Burgundavia_, not too much but i know about launchpad | 12:09 |
| Burgundavia_ | basically, the idea behind a spec is to lay out exactly what you are going to do | 12:09 |
| xtknight | kinda confused what the difference is between a spec, a blueprint, and the other things they have there | 12:09 |
| === etank [n=etank@ubuntu/member/etank] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| Burgundavia_ | blueprint == spec | 12:10 |
| Burgundavia_ | but first chat with them, see what works best | 12:10 |
| xtknight | cool thx | 12:10 |
| Burgundavia_ | I know there is a talk of a windows installer as well | 12:10 |
| Burgundavia_ | but no real work yet | 12:10 |
| xtknight | figured since im not very adept with linux api i'd put my win32 api skills to work | 12:10 |
| blueCommand | ScottK, Do you know if renaming the directory "gafix-0.9.1" to "gafix-0.9.1.orig" is valid? | 12:10 |
| xtknight | and this is the perfect opportunity really | 12:10 |
| xtknight | help ubuntu by using win32api, couldnt get any better ;) | 12:10 |
| xtknight | anyhoo be back in a bit | 12:11 |
| Burgundavia_ | ok | 12:11 |
| Burgundavia_ | tag me if you have any questions | 12:11 |
