\shRiddell, what was the problem with adept and showing the maintainer of the package in the description? you said something yesterday02:13
Riddell\sh: current adept_manager shows maintainers where it should show descriptions.  probably one of the more recent patches broke something02:13
Riddellthose colums are quite fragile02:13
=== apachelogger_ is now known as apachelogger

manchickenAre the executables the same?04:00
RiddellI'm using 2.1.3ubuntu11 on both my laptop and desktop04:04
Riddelllaptop fine, desktop broke04:04
Riddellcould it be an amd64 issue?  I can't see how04:04
manchickenI don't see how either.04:04
manchickenWe're not using any types that aren't commonly used all over the place...04:05

=== DaSkreech [n=skreech@katapult/ninja/daskreech] has joined #kubuntu-devel
manchickenI am getting the same issue on amd64, so I know it's not the arch.04:05
manchickenthat leads me to believe that it's a dependency.04:05
manchickenDo you have the same version of libapt-front?04:06
Riddellapt-front is a built time thing only04:08
Riddellyou'd need to check the build logs04:08
nosredna_ekimis there a problem with a package with AMD64?I have that installed here...04:09
\shmanchicken, libapt-front-dev is from libapt-front which is just a build-deb...it's not actively installed on production systems...so it should use the same libapt-inst or libapt-pkg lib at all04:10
manchickenAh.04:10
manchickenOkay.04:11
manchickenI'm gonna try building from jr's bzr repo.04:11
manchickenI'll see what it has in there.04:11
Riddellnosredna_ekim: try the lastest adept-manager, does it show descriptions or maintainers in the description column?04:12
nosredna_ekimin the package lists you mean?04:12
Riddellyes04:12
nosredna_ekimi'll check.04:13
nosredna_ekimOh, whoops... forgot I was in fiesty :) sorry.04:13
\shmanchicken, you are using a development snapshot? could be that there is an error in it? ;)04:15
manchickenI'm using the latest gutsy version04:15
manchicken2.1.3ubuntu1104:16
\shmanchicken, me too :)04:17
\shmanchicken, could you check if your package cache files are correct from apt-get, not that they are corrupted somehow...I got sometimes in the last months broken package files for a short time from archive.ubuntu.com04:17
Riddellthey're not with me, I've been installing stuff all day04:20
manchickenWhat gets me, is that if we've got some weird difference here that isn't specifically code-related, then I would expect more crashes or otherwise erratic behavior.04:20
Riddelland I really thin it's far more likely adept or something related breaks than apt04:20
manchickenBecause the only other thing I can think of is bad structure usage or some degree of pointer overflow.04:21
manchicken(which are, I suppose, could be the same thing)04:21
manchickenBut the thing with adept is that everything in adept seems to be an accessor call.04:22
manchickenWe're not doing anything fancy with structures for that display.04:23
manchickenYeah, the code looks right here...04:25
manchickenIf you look at L397 you'll see the function that determines what's in that column04:26
manchickenThen line 407 looks like its doing the right thing.04:27
manchickenMakes me wonder if entity::Package got hosed somehow.04:28
Riddellthere was an update to libapt-front at some point04:28
Riddellyou could check if compiling adept with the older version fixes it04:28
manchickenWe haven't touched this part of the adept code in a while.04:28
manchickenWell, this should be an easy look into the headers.04:28
Riddelland also check in i386 and amd64 chroot if it is an amd64 only problem04:28
manchickenSince everything in freakin' libapt-front is in the headers :)04:29
manchickenRiddell: But I'm on amd64, and I've got it, too.04:29
manchickenOh, now I get you.04:29
manchickenYou're saying you don't think it happens on i386.04:29
Riddellwell, it doesn't happen on my i386 or \sh's04:31
Riddelland it does happen on my amd64 and yours, so it's possible04:31
Riddellalthough there shouldn't be anything amd64 specific in adept or apt-front04:31
\shmanchicken, on i386, when I check the "maintainer checkbox" in the first line next to the search box, I won't see any maintainer field in the listbox below04:31

nixternalapt is doing something funny for me...it will go through the upgrade, but then sometimes it will lock before it totally finishes08:30
fdovingoh.. he's not around.08:30
nixternaldunno if this is apt, or a package that is upgrading...it seems that everytime python is getting updated is when it freezes08:31
fdovingpython sucks.08:31
fdovingonly makes problems :08:31
nixternallol08:31
fdovingpycentral has not been nice to me.08:31
nixternalI am actually growing quite fond of python08:32
nixternalbut then again, I kind of grew a likeness to java as well08:32
=== nixternal would really love to have qt-jambi packaged :)
=== DaSkreech finds a Python who will squeeze and love nixternal just as much
nixternalhaha08:32
=== nixternal does note that he hates snakes
fdovingwho doesn't.08:33
nixternalI will stand toe-to-toe with anything else, but a snake and a spider, and I am like a little baby08:33
=== \sh is now known as \sh_away
=== DaSkreech won't stand toe to toe with a little baby.. strange that
nixternalmy neighbors love them...they have over 20 different kinds..I hate going over there08:34
nixternalhaha08:34
DaSkreech20 diferent kinds of little babies?08:34
DaSkreechwhat? are they a UN petting Zoo ?08:34
nixternalheh, snakes silly08:35
nixternalthey could be a chicago petting zoo probably...but I am not petting08:35
nixternalmy daughter loves them08:36
ScottKAbout Python versus Java...08:36
nixternalthen again, people don't like the fact that I have a pitbull..so I guess we share a likeness08:36
DaSkreechnixternal: http://www.thecutereport.com/index.php/2007/08/04/whistling-puppy/08:37
nixternalSun needs to start doing some homework, because Python is sneaking in big time08:37
ScottKMy wife took a programming course using Java and then one using Python and she was sure she was messing up and missing stuff she needed in her Python programs because it was just too easy.  It couldn't possibly be right.08:37
ScottKIt was right.08:37
nixternalya...see I found Java very easy, but tedious in times because of a somewhat nasty API08:38
nixternalDaSkreech: now that was damn cute! what kind of puppy was that?08:39
DaSkreechPug I think08:40
nixternalI had a puppy in November of last year, but it has grown up to be a little devil08:40
nixternalI thought it might be a (sorry for my spelling, so I will spell it how it sounds) sharpay08:40
nixternalbut it looked pretty small for one of those08:40
nixternalhttp://www.thecutereport.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/08/dogtowel.jpg08:42
nixternalthat would be a "sharpay", so I guess I was wrong08:42

fdovingScarFreewill: i guess you're looking for dpkg-repack (in universe).10:18
fdovingif you just want to put the package back together, binary version only.10:19
ScarFreewillfdoving: I've gotten it to work using just normal extraction but i'll try that with libqt4-dev that i need to edit now too10:20
fdovingwhat is it you're editing?10:21
ScarFreewill(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kde4libs/+bug/132517)10:21

fdovingit's usually better to fix the package, than to work around it.10:21
ScarFreewillI'm just trying to run kde4 :P10:21
fdovingok.10:21
fdovingdo you extract with ar xf?10:21
ScarFreewillark.. isn't it the same?10:22
fdovingyeah, probably.10:22
ScarFreewill(as ar xf?)10:22

fdovingScarFreewill: you can use 'ar rcu yourdeb.deb debian-binary control.tar.gz data.tar.gz' to re-make the .deb from the modified control.tar.gz and the data.tar.gz, i guess you can figure out how to re-compress the control.tar.gz or do you want that too?10:32
ScarFreewillI just extracted the deb, extracted the control.tar.gz, extracted the data.tar.gz, renamed controle folder to DEBIAN, deleted debian-binary edited what i wanted to and did "dpkg -b dir deb"10:35
fdovingok.10:35
ScarFreewillthanks for the support though :-D10:36
fdovingyou could have: ar xf file.deb;tar -zx -C DEBIAN -f control.tar.gz;[make changes] ;tar -cz -C DEBIAN -f control.tar.gz;ar rcu yourdeb.deb debian-binary control.tar.gz data.tar.gz10:41

manchickenSorry, I'll ask in #kubuntu :)11:34
fdovingintels usually works nicely with linux.11:34
manchickenI just don't want to end up with another broadcom, if you know what I mean.11:35
fdovingi do.11:35
manchickenThis Toshiba machine looks pretty good, I just want to make sure that all of the hardware will work.11:35
manchickenDo you know if built-in bluetooth hardware is usually okay or problematic?11:35
fdovingi have a 3945ABG, it's good.11:35
manchickenYeah, I just worry about it because it's that new wireless N thing.11:36
fdovingmy dell has a okay builtin bluetooth-thing.11:36

manchickenI can't believe I didn't think about that!11:38
nosrednaekimwhat?11:38
fdovingcan't see why it shouldn't have that.11:38
fdovingi had to downgrade the vista-bluetooth drivers to the xp version, to make the device appear in linux.11:40
manchickenThat's a great idea, have the boys at Circuit City let me run the demo disc.11:41
manchickenWhat?  You have to run windows drivers?11:41
manchickenI'm not interested in that at all.11:41
fdovingmy dell came with vista, and i had to downgrade to the xp drivers for the bluetooth device, for it to be "switched on", properly.11:41
fdovingI only had to do that once.11:42
manchickenOh, is it just a firmware issue?11:42
fdovingyes.11:42
manchickenOkay...11:42
fdovingthe vista-driver-firmware broke linux support. somehow.11:42
manchickenThat's not so terrible I suppose, but I'm never going to run the windows if I buy a machine with that on there.11:42
nosrednaekimdo circuit city, etc let you run liveCD's before you buy?11:42
fdovingI didn't plan to either.11:42
manchickennosrednaekim: If they want to sell laptops they will.11:42
manchickenAt least if they want to sell one to me.11:42
