[10:17] soren: what was the actual problem of libldap linking against gnutls?

[10:20] seb128: if you give this some testing, sure [10:20] seb128: will gdmflexiserver automatically use it?

[10:21] pitti: I just merged gdm with debian and there is a gdmXnestWrapper now [10:22] ah, cool [10:22] pitti: the wrapper use xephyr if available otherwise xnest [10:23] whoops, xephyr just crashed [10:23] calc: I looked at your xinerama issue, it maybe that a new compiz snapshot solves the problem [10:23] I just started xeyes in it...

Don't do that. xen-hypervisor is still listed. [10:28] StevenK: that's fine, it's really NBS [10:28] Yeah, but is the new Xen in yet? [10:28] no, the packages still have a lot of problems, I mailed zul already [10:29] And I'm not sure what to do about lib32gcj8-* [10:29] pitti: Speaking of -dev packages, libdb3-dev is NBS'd, and I'm unsure where to go with that. [10:30] StevenK: I think the reason is to stop packages from using libdb3 [10:30] lib32gcj-bc is the only rdepends of lib32gcj8-0 [10:31] Sure, but should I look at moving r-build-depends of libdb3-dev to libdb4.x? [10:31] ah, but lib32gcj-bc is built from gcc-defaults [10:31] StevenK: that's generally possible if the package does not use on-disk transactions [10:31] Yeah, I looked at it earlier and went cross-eyed [10:31] StevenK: "grep -r TXN" is a good indication [10:31] In the source? [10:31] StevenK: Sid has done a lot of packages to libdb4.5, and we haven't. [10:32] the on-disk transaction format changed in every release, so those pacakges need extra love [10:32] TheMuso: how did they do the conversion for stuff that does use transactions, like cyrus-sasl? === StevenK grumbles about bezerkly DB [10:32] pitti: I don'tknow.

[11:13] pitti: are you doing syncs? [11:13] StevenK: there is one reverse dependency left from cyrus21: meta-ul-mail-server [11:13] k, looks like [11:13] StevenK: but *shrug* [11:13] that's why processing backports doesn't work :p [11:13] seb128: I'm done now, all your's [11:13] pitti: k, I was just wondering why it refused to do the backports, thanks ;) === StevenK wonders what meta-ul expands to [11:14] seb128: btw, last time I cleared NEW for dapper-/feisty-backports, but I didn't manage to clean edgy-backports completely [11:14] backports shouldn't block on syncs ... [11:14] seb128: maybe some of the stuff shuold just be rejected if it's too intrusive [11:14] unless there's some strange LP lock somewhere [11:14] cjwatson: process-upload.py lock, I figure [11:14] cjwatson: the flushing does [11:14] UserLinux. Right then. [11:14] ah [11:14] pitti: I'll deal with meta-ul-mail-server, too [11:14] fair enough [11:15] StevenK: I guess it can be just synced, or something [11:15] meta-ul-mail-server | 0.02-1ubuntu13 | gutsy/universe | all [11:15] StevenK: erk, 13 ubuntu uploads? whoa [11:16] pitti: It's also been killed from Debian [11:16] indeed [11:16] Kill them both? [11:16] StevenK: looks like it has never actually been in there? [11:16] hi all [11:16] Ah [11:16] packages.ubuntu.com is down ? [11:16] http://packages.qa.debian.org/m/meta-ul-mail-server.html doesn't even exist [11:16] which means it's not even in oldstable [11:17] That'd explain the lack of bug against ftp.debian.org :-P [11:17] saispro> yes, it is [11:17] *saispo [11:17] Source: meta-ul [11:17] pitti: mako is the maintainer, maybe we need to ask him nicely [11:17] StevenK: ^ my bad, sorry [11:19] StevenK: so none of the old names exist either [11:19] Which means we should kill it? [11:20] Question: Does the usual interpretation of the Debian Policy allow for a package to alter another package's rc?.d links? [11:20] geser: you did the last three uploads of meta-ul; are you actually interested in that package and want to fix it for the cyrus21-imapd removal, or shall I just kill it? [11:21] soren: erk; I'd interpret the DP as "don't do that" [11:21] pitti: no, please kill it [11:21] Hurray! [11:21] pitti: I've only fixed unmet deps in the past [11:21] soren: once you start doing that, and multiple packages change your rc links, then you'll get mad [11:21] pitti: 10.7.4 speaks of shared configuration files, which this could be interpreted as. [11:21] geser: thanks [11:22] soren: right, but that applies to stuff like /etc/modules or /etc/passwd IMHO, which are not clearly tied to a particular package [11:22] pitti: But my hunch says that it's evil. [11:22] pitti: Right, ok. [11:23] soren: what's the use caes? [11:23] case, even [11:24] StevenK: *flush* [11:24] pitti: I'm trying to figure out if there's some policy-abiding way I can make ebox run an ldap server. Right now, it mangles /etc/ldap/slapd.conf and uses the system one, but I'd rather have it create a separate slapd.conf, run a separate instance of slapd and make the "real" slapd not run. [11:25] soren: but in this case it should also listen to a nonstandard port etc., so it shouldn't actually interfere with the main ldap server? [11:26] pitti: No, it's supposed to listen on the standard ldap port. [11:26] soren: it would seem quite weird to me if the box which runs ebox couldn't work as an ldap server? [11:26] soren: let's take a step back [11:26] soren: is that ldap server supposed to be a private database for ebox internals, or an official ldap server for net auth etc. which is configured by ebox? [11:26] pitti: The latter. [11:27] ah [11:27] lionel: concerning bug 119796 you acked the sync. Does this mean you checked there is no necessary Ubuntu diff? [11:27] Launchpad bug 119796 in openbox "please sync openbox 3.4.2-1 from Debian unstable (main)" [Wishlist,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/119796 [11:27] pitti, can you please look at bug #128145?

[11:27] pitti: I do. [11:28] LucidFox: seb128 did it two minutes ago :) [11:28] ;) [11:28] pitti: I just don't want to break the existing ldap config. [11:28] LucidFox: usually no need to ping archive admin, we do look at the bug list often enough [11:29] soren: do you need to? [11:29] pitti: And the cleanest way to do this, I think, is to create an entirely separate configuration, with an entirely separate ldap database and use that instead of the "real" one. [11:29] soren: i. e. can't the ldap module read the existing config and mangle it according to the settings you do in ebox? [11:29] pitti: Well, ebox can start it from its init script (which it probably will), but I need the "real" one to not start. === oni [n=oni@p5483293F.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel [11:29] pitti: in theory, yes. I'm just not very comfortable doing that. [11:30] soren: TBH, I think we should find a way to configure the real system packages properly; having private instances of everything will be an insane maintenance overhead IMHO [11:30] soren: as long as ebox doesn't change configuration automatically, only on user's requests, I do not see a conflict with the DP spirit [11:31] i. e. [11:31] good: read ldap.conf, present it on GUI, have user change settings, write it back, force-reload === infinity1 [n=adconrad@cerberus.0c3.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [11:31] bad: ignore ldap.conf, create ldap.conf from scratch according to settings in ebox [11:31] soren: the current xserver-xorg postinst is a great way how *not* to do it :) [11:32] it's the prime example of violating the debconf policy (and configuration file clobbering) [11:33] pitti: I'm aware of the maintenance overhead, but doing what you propose requires deep and thorough knowledge of *every* aspect of *every* config file we want to handle. [11:33] soren: well, you need knowledge about the syntax, the default settings, and the values that you want to change [11:33] pitti: The beauty of having a separate config is: 1Installing ebox is safe and undoable. [11:33] whoops [11:34] soren: I think it's reasonable for ebox to say "I cannot configure this" if there is a non-default configuration file [11:34] pitti: The beauty of having a separate config is: 1) Installing ebox is safe and undoable, 2) we control the entire new config, so we're sure it works like it's supposed to. [11:34] pitti: And how do you propose detecing "default configurations"? [11:34] detecting.. [11:34] soren: but still, it makes ebox and configuration file management incompatible [11:35] soren: check if a conffile is unmodified, and keep md5sums of the last version ebox wrote maybe? [11:35] (conffile unmodified -> if ebox doesn't have its own checksum yet) [11:35] pitti: right. By having a totally separate config, you can choose to go the dpkg way or the ebox way and switch between them safely. [11:36] pitti: I'm not talking about letting the user change configs that ebox has written. I'm talking about installation time. [11:36] soren: IMHO it would be very sad to make the standard conffiles unusable; admins are used to them, they might be covered in backup software, you break upstream documentation, etc. [11:36] pitti: I've got other plans for changing configurations while ebox is already installed. [11:37] soren: seems you arrived at one of the core design decisions here; maybe that warrants an u-devel@ thread [11:37] pitti: They are free to change the templates used to generate the configuration files. [11:37] siretart, poke? === rem_ [n=rmz@87.127.75.129] has joined #ubuntu-devel [11:38] soren: if you want to go the 'separate config' approach, I'd prefer changing the affected packages themselves to point to a different configuraion file/dir in their default file === Watersevenub [n=Watersev@azevedo.astro.up.pt] has joined #ubuntu-devel [11:39] seb128: glib sparc fix ping [11:39] doko: not done yet, will have a look this week, is there any hurry?

To make it easier for admins to figure out what's going on? [11:40] but is that blocking you for something you need? [11:41] soren: rather to keep configuration file locations and the knowledge about them to the packages themselves [11:41] soren: that way, their init scripts etc. can be modified to use the correct configuration file, and you do not need nasty rc hacks and duplicate init scripts [11:41] well, I have to build things locally for the icedtea bootstrap === pkl [n=phillip@lougher.demon.co.uk] has joined #ubuntu-devel === pkl is now known as pkl_ [11:43] pitti: I still need to remove their rc?.d links.

[11:45] soren: hm, I'm not sure whether this is true; you'll end up duplicating all the effort and knowledge that went to the packaging, init scripts, etc., not even mentioning the tools for system checks [11:45] doko: I'll look at glib after lunch [11:45] soren: if you change a configuration, then you'll need to force-reload the service anyway [11:45] pitti: huh? Just because I'm removing the rc.?.d lins? [11:45] pitti: Precisely. That's why it's easier if the service isn't started already, but will be started by ebox. [11:45] soren: no, if you change the server configuration [11:46] soren: I still don't understand that === tkamppeter_ is now known as tkamppeter [11:46] soren: surely ebox doesn't modify configuration files on startup? [11:46] pitti: How else will it know that the configuration is the way it's supposed to be? [11:46] soren: you scare me [11:47] soren: it actually rewrites configuration every time it starts up? [11:47] pitti: Yes. [11:47] pitti: If you stop ebox, break the configuration and start ebox again, and ebox didn't do anything to fix it, how would that be handled if you were to decide? === stdin [i=stdin@unaffiliated/binary2k2] has joined #ubuntu-devel [11:48] soren: it shouldn't be handled at all [11:48] soren: if the admin changed a configuration file manually, nothing should clobber that [11:48] (our "Golden Rule") [11:48] pitti: So just break spectacularly? That sounds cleveR? [11:48] soren: yes [11:48] soren: ignoring admin's explicit decisions is really bad [11:49] pitti: The configuration files *clearly* state "DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE! EDIT THE TEMPLATE INSTEAD!" === Keybuk [n=scott@wing-commander.netsplit.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel [11:49] soren: but that doesn't make it much better IMHO [11:50] soren: if someone restores their machine from a backup, he should get the configuration files he wants, not the ones ebox scribbles over them [11:50] soren: IMHO *not* respecting the current configuration files is opening a can of worms [11:50] pitti: I respect it by not overwriting it. [11:50] pitti: but *you* want me to overwrite it. [11:50] which brought SuSE a lot of bashing in the past (and Debian a lot of trust because it didn't do it) [11:51] pitti: You are the one proposing messing with the user's existing files. [11:51] soren: right [11:51] soren: I don't want ebox to override the configuration files every time, without question [11:51] pitti: I want to leave them alone, so it's easy to ditch ebox again and not have anything broken by it. [11:52] this sounds like yast in the old days where it didn't honour manual editing of config files [11:52] indeed [11:52] YaST. *twitch* [11:52] so, there are some cases here: === keyes [n=keyes@easyubuntu/keyes] has joined #ubuntu-devel [11:52] 1) conffile comes as shipped in the .deb (unmodified conffile) -> we should make sure that ebox understands those === \sh is now known as \sh_away [11:53] 2) conffile was manually changed in a way that ebox understands -> I see no problem of changing it again with ebox; if the admin does configuration changes in the ebox UI, he makes an educated decision of configuring his server [11:53] pitti: Doesn't work for slapd. It's altered by debconf magic. Which sort of brings me to my second question, but let's leave that for a bit. [11:53] 3) conffile was manually changed in a way that ebox doesn't understand -> don't touch it and explain [11:54] kagou, I have now made another package of s-c-p 0.7.70 and also an update of hal-cups-utils to 0.6.11, because of bug 127841, but it seems that HAL does not trigger the script when plugginh a printer.

[11:56] pitti: Well, one of them was: How do I detect that this is a default install? [11:56] pitti: /win 17 [11:56] whoops [11:57] soren: for conffiles this is easy; you can md5sum the file and compare it to dpkg-query -W -f='${Conffiles}' $PKGNAME [11:57] soren: for config files this needs to be decided on a case-by-case basis [11:58] soren: often, config files (not conffiles) are written by debconf scripts [11:58] in which case they are usually trivial enough to parse and change [11:58] pitti: Does that dpkg-query thing take into account changes made during postinst (debconf stuff)? [11:59] soren: no, that is independent [11:59] soren: packages must not change conffiles with debconf [11:59] pitti: No, but I'm dealing with config files. [11:59] s/ with debconf// [11:59] well, s/ with debconf/ in maintainer scripts/ [12:00] the common practice is to have easy config files written by debconf (such as default files) and conffiles which shouldn't usually be touched at all [12:00] soren: with configuration files, dpkg-query -W -f='${Conffiles}' won't return anything ... [12:00] soren: if you encounter a package which has variable bits in hard-to-parse configuration files, we should fix that package; it'll avoid much trouble and also make admins happier even without ebox [12:01] cjwatson: Sure.

Should we try it also and sync those packages? or should it wait for gutsy+1? [12:25] geser: doing it now is fine; in fact, StevenK already looked at it and I synced a lot already [12:29] geser: Beat you.

[04:34] Riddell: I can recall one instance of debian/control.in being used to automatically generate a debian/control to put the version number from debian/changelog into a package name.

[04:42] admin/conf.change.pl is under LGPL also, dunno if it should be listed in debian/copyright [04:42] elmo: a bunch of build scripts [04:43] elmo: you can use kdesudo in the NEW queue as an example if you want to have a look [04:43] seb128: I have no idea how to even look at NEW packages in soyuz and no desire to learn ;-) [04:43] ;) [04:43] basically, I'm not sure where the 'must have all authors in debian/copyright' meme came from [04:44] germany [04:44] personally, I don't think it's useful or pragmatically enforcable [04:44] http://people.ubuntu.com/~ubuntu-archive/queue/gutsy/new/kdesudo_1.1-0ubuntu1.dsc [04:44] (FYI) [04:44] k [04:44] so let's not bother === pitti nods [04:44] and admin/conf.change.pl being LGPL, should the copyright mention it? (rest of the package is under GPL) [04:45] LGPL can be promoted to GPL, so again, I think that's moot [04:45] elmo: thanks [04:45] you mean 'promoted' == you can treat an LGPL source as if it were licensed under GPL [04:45] ?
