pkernScottK: You mean the diffstat and the changelog diff?12:56
pkernLuckily enough there's no ChangeLog.12:56

pkernNo heart attack because of that yet but well.02:52
pkernNot healthy neither.02:52
ScottKpkern: PPA is a new thing and yes, it's buggy.  Right now if an orig.tar.gz has been uploaded to a PPA, Soyuz will think it has it when doing a sync of a new upstream version and then later on discover it's not in the archive an fail the sync.02:54
pkernI heared that one, yes.02:54
pkernThat's high on my fun scale, too.02:55

xtknightpkern, thx for dealing with it, ideally i would use "quilt" but i just dont understand it03:09
xtknighti'm not sure it would create anything different from a typical "diff"?03:09
pkernxtknight: It does exactly that but it allows me to nicely edit files and to refresh the patch afterwards.03:11
xtknightpkern,  my "diff" 'd  files are not identical to what quilt would come up with?03:11
pwnguinok; this is getting rather tiring: ive got a package and i'd like to apply a patch to it. the patch applies, but i need to define HAVE_SYS_ACL_H. im totally lost on where / how to add that flag03:12
RAOFpwnguin: At configure time?03:13
ScottKAutomatix source for Gutsy is posted on Ubuntu forums if anyone cares.03:13
pwnguintheres an aclocal.m4, a configure.h.in, and the directory of the executable i want to build has an Makefile.am03:13

=== javierder [n=javier@11-153-126-200.fibertel.com.ar] has joined #ubuntu-motu
RAOFpwnguin: Well, unless you autoreconf any changes you make to *.ac & *.am won't do anything.03:16
ScottKpkern: In evil ways (at least in the old version).03:16
pkernScottK: Like overriding files from other packages? :-P03:16
ScottKIIRC there are over-rides and moving of files.  Don't recall for sure if it was from other packages, but wouldn't suprise me.03:17
ScottKMy favorite is routinely sigkilling dpkg because it might not be finished on it's own.03:17
bddebianScottK: colorgcc.  I'm supposed to be the maintainer :-)03:17
pkernScottK: Nice.03:17
ScottKbddebian: Then you need to patch it.03:17
xtknight"already existing patch" 901_xterm_manpage.diff.  this is what i dont understand.  if the patch is already there why are we doing "sed -i" ( https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/School/PatchingSources )03:17
pwnguinRAOF: is this something that should be done in rules?03:17
ScottKpkern: They promise to have mended their ways.03:17
xtknightalso what made that patch and what is in it03:17
bddebianScottK: I know. :-(  Unless I just call myself upstream ;-P03:17
pkernScottK: So why didn't they just port RPM and use that instead? That has a history of corrupting things on SIGKILL. ;)03:18
pkernScottK: Are they certified? :-P03:18
persiaxtknight: A previous developer made the patch.  You should be able to see it in debian/patches03:18
RAOFpwnguin: Generally, no.  If you need to do autofoo you generally stick the changes in a (gigantic) patch.03:18
xtknightpersia, oh we are updating his patch?03:18
xtknightdidn't see edit, got it now03:18
xtknightthat's not so difficult.  would be nice if quilt had something like diff Nru so you could do stuff recursively .03:19
pkernSo Tomcat is still running. I guess I will have to reinstall soonish.03:19
ScottKbddebian: Interesting approach to a patch system youve got there...03:19
ScottKpkern: Don't get me started.03:20
bddebianScottK: I didn't write that :-)03:20
pkernScottK: I just installed Gutsy.  At that point I need to do that I could just move on. ;)03:20
pkernI'm not sure Debian would be better though.03:21
pkernNo viable alternative for me for now.03:21
RAOFOh, great.  It seems that with Xgl we can either (1) have the screen turn off after 20 min of inactivity or (2) Never have the screen turn off.03:22
pkernI would go for `turn the screen off after every inactivity'.03:22
ScottKpkern: ?03:22
bddebianGaaahhh03:22
pkernThat's somehow missing from the list of options. :-P03:22
bddebianThis sucks03:22
ScottKbddebian: Would it be a help to you if I made your debian/rules do dpatch so you could just dpatch-edit-patch?03:23
bddebianI already did that part but now I'm trying to apply the existing patches into dpatches03:23
ScottKAh.  So fire up dpatch-edit-patch and then throw the patches into it with patch.03:24
bddebianThat's what I tried03:24
ScottKDIdn't work?03:25
bddebianI ended up with some weirdass colorgcc.orig file03:25
pkernScottK: The experience is a regression compared to what I had before, sadly enough. Ok, most could be deduced to fglrx.03:25

pkernYes.03:44
bddebianpersia: Can I just whack them?03:46
persiabddebian: If you're running a patch system, and it's generating .orig files, it usually means the patches don't quite match (fuzz).  If the results are acceptable (.rej is missing, usually), you can kill the .orig files.  If you're encountering fuzz, it's best practice to refresh the patches to not get the fuzz, and apply cleanly.  (In short: "yes, but...")03:48

pkernIf that would work...04:12
bddebianAh, 2 for 2, here goes #3 :)04:12
pkernScottK: If you suggest me, or rather my eyes, that you're bddebian... :-P Or rather the person who tries.04:12
=== bddebian doesn't get that
ScottKbddebian: It's 4AM where he is.  I'm not sure there's much more than that to get.04:14
bddebianheh04:14

pkernThe free bear^Hbeer that was promised for the attendance of the last MOTU meeting didn't ship yet.04:16
StevenKThe free beabeer ?04:16
ScottKAs long as the free bear comes with a cage, I'm ok.04:17
RAOFHow big is this bear, and can you mail it?04:18
persiapkern: That was only a resolution to provide fee bears to regular attendees, for future meetings.  Ship dates require further discussion.04:18
minghuaScottK: Be careful, nobody promised the cage is free.04:19
ScottKI expect if it makes it to the house without the driver being eaten, I'll be safe enough.04:19

ScottKI was afraid you were headed in that direction.04:21
pkernThe Care Bears' ultimate "weapon" is the "Care Bear Stare," in which the collected Bears stand together and radiate light from their respective tummy symbols. These combine to form a ray of love and good cheer which could bring care and joy into the target's heart.04:21
ScottKOne of our German au pairs was a HUGE Care Bear fan and so I'm already overexposed.04:21

dholbachHobbsee, ScottK: it can still be marked as 'later'08:35
=== Hobbsee didnt close it
dholbachok08:35
Hobbseebut true, it looked like a uvfe bug.08:35
Hobbseeand presumably debian will have it for hardy08:35
dholbachwe have quite some changes in galculator for UME, I don't think it'll be easy to just sync it08:36
Hobbseethen i dont trust him at all with uploading it.08:36
Hobbseebut, fair enough08:37
dholbachhe should coordinate with adilson08:37
Hobbseeadilson isnt stupid enough to attmept to mangle his changes.08:37
Hobbseeit'd be quicker just to redo it from scratch, methinks08:37
Hobbseei dont get why he felt that it wasnt necessary to do a UVFe for it though.08:37
=== thekorn [n=markus@89.182.77.158] has joined #ubuntu-motu
dholbachthat's something they can both figure out for Hardy - I agree: it does not look like it's something we want now08:37
Hobbseedholbach: i dont get why he wastes other people's time though, when he clearly doesnt think it's required to do a uvfe.  or something.08:39
Hobbseei thought he'd been told off enough times to know that that was a bad idea.08:39
dholbachdid he subscribe motu-uvf?08:40
Hobbseeyup08:40
dholbachhrm08:40
dholbachI'll ask him later today08:40
Hobbseeoh, i thoguth he did.  why doesnt it show on the activity log08:40
Hobbseehe subscribed u-u-s, so he clearly thought it was OK for uploading08:40
dholbachhrm08:41
Hobbseecould have sworn it was a uvfe bug - it showed in that folder, i'm sure08:41
Hobbseewhether it was or not is debatable - it was still wasting people's time, as it shouldnt be uploaded without a uvfe regardless.08:42
=== Hobbsee shrugs
\shHobbsee, did the reporter check if the old gdk function calls are removed from the new version of galculator?08:42
Hobbseehe should know better, and i'm fairly certain that he does know better, as he could manage for the other bugs.  i'd be very surprised if this wasnt a malicious attempt at bypassing the uvfe queue.08:43
Hobbseewhether by actual maliciousness or by incompetence, i'm unsure.08:43
\shand I wonder....sebebastien is the debian maintainer when I see the debian uploads...he should know if it's feasable to sync or not at a certain ubuntu release state08:43
Hobbsee\sh: very unlikely.08:43
Hobbsee\sh: yeah, but....you don't seriously expect this guy to act sanely like that, do you?08:44
persia\Sh: it was adjusted by upstream.08:44
Hobbseedholbach: also, he's still touching other people's bugs - sync requests, etc.  setting them to wishlist.  he said that he wouldnt do it, last time i told him why it was a bad idea.08:44
dholbachhe should not have subscribed any of the teams, but it's not wasted work08:44
dholbachit can be re-reviewed for hardy08:45
Hobbseeif you can find anyone brave enough to do the review.08:45
dholbachadilson dived quite deep into galculator code :)08:46

ScottKbluekuja: Did you upload it already?02:11
bluekujaScottK: yeah02:12
bluekujaScottK: it's just a new debian revision, mere bug fixes02:12
ScottKActually he meant motu-uvf (motu-sru is defunct) and since it's just a new revision (not a new upstream) it doesn't actually.02:12
ScottKbluekuja: Yes.  Uploading was the right thing to do.02:12
bluekujaScottK: yeah, I dont understand his message then02:12
ScottKIt was more along the lines of "That's in Universe, go bug the Universe people." than exactly what needed doing I think.02:13
bluekujahehe02:13
ScottKIt looks like a good merge to have uploaded to me (based on the description).02:14
pkernlibcommons-modeler-java still isn't synced. *cough*02:14

ScottKsee/seem02:18
persiaScottK: Thanks for the confirmation.  Things seem to be the same as they were.02:18
ScottKOK.  Didn't recall exactly how that standing up and your vacation aligned.02:19
persiaRegarding "doing good", I think some people are more comfortable getting started with someone holding their hand.  It requires interface to the non-mentor model before one has the community backing to succeed.02:19
ScottKpersia: Could well be.  From the outside it's really hard to tell if it's worth the trouble or not.02:20
persiaScottK: I was actually assigned thee mentees.  One left due to intern committment, one is still active (although only lightly: big plans for early Hardy), and one disappeared in mid-July.02:20
ScottKOK.02:21
=== Martinp23 [n=martinp2@wikimedia/Martinp23] has joined #ubuntu-motu
persiaScottK: I'd say it's a mixed bag.  Some people find it helpful as an introduction.  Personally, I think there are two useful phases, with 4-6 months of relative inactivity between: an initial introduction to the processes and working as a contributor, and help putting together an action and interest plan when determining if joining MOTU is appropriate.02:22
persiaOn the other hand, the idea that one should have a mentor detracts from the self-motivation that is so useful.02:22
zulthere is also a steep learning curve that alot of people probably get put off by02:23
ScottKWhich is, I think, a useful kind of discussion to have about the program.02:23

ScottKpersia: As I read the agenda the viability/desireability of continuing the program is assumed.02:24
=== ScottK can see it has benifits, but are they worth the costs?
persiaScottK: I don't think the continuation of a mentoring program is up for debate, but the meaning of that program, and the management thereof seems to be.  I'd argue that a little hand-holding isn't bad, as long as it's optional, and everyone understands what it means.02:25
ScottKpersia: My point exactly.02:25
ScottKPersonally, having run into people who thought they couldn't do stuff because they didn't have a mentor assigned, I'm not convinced.02:26
=== tmarble [n=tmarble@user-38q4et6.cable.mindspring.com] has joined #ubuntu-motu
persiaI'm really not sure about the costs.  Pre-mentoring, there were a number of people who stayed in-channel, and provided lots of help to new people, essentially doing the same thing.  I consider "introduction" over when the mentee is an active participant in-channel.02:26
=== Martinp23 [n=martinp2@wikimedia/Martinp23] has joined #ubuntu-motu
ScottKBut that's OK.  I think there's a lot of convoluted, inefficient process stuff going on and I doubt it's going to get better.02:27
persiaScottK: Ah.  Yes.  That's an issue.  I think the documentation needs to be much more clear.  I also think that separating mentoring into two phases (and encouraging different mentors) would go a long way towards dispelling that belief.02:27
ScottKpersia: The costs are MOTUs investing time in management overhead, people not contributing because they don't think they are official enough, and encouraging an environment where people expect spoon feeding.02:27
ScottKExcept for the very few that wouldn't speak up and get started without it, I don't really see what it gains us.02:28
persiaFor cost #1, I'd say it's a wash: the management overhead is probably lower than the previous opportunity cost of people emailing random MOTUs and asking for help.  For cost #2, I think that better presentation could help, and for cost #3, I don't see much difference between assigned spoon-feeding and getting answers in-channel: in either case, it must be made clear that those who explain aren't actually going to do it.02:30
pkernI IRC presence mandatory?02:31
pkerns/I/Is/02:31
persiaOn the other hand, the mid-gutsy model, where some people just sponsored, and REVU'd, without coding, wasn't very satisfying.  I think there's a balance somewhere.02:31
ScottKpkern: No, but it's where almost all the coordination happens, so it's hard to keep up without it.02:31
=== Martinp23 [n=martinp2@wikimedia/Martinp23] has joined #ubuntu-motu
persiapkern: I think so.  Debian is based on email.  Ubuntu is faster because of IRC (or at least, that was one of the arguments back in the noname days)02:31
persiaScottK: Are you sure?  I did some things while I was away, but I'd argue "away" is the right phrase for not having a presence on IRC.02:32
ScottKSure about not being mandatory?02:33
persiaScottK: Yes.02:33
ScottKThere's no rule.02:33
pkernThat would suck because IRC is known to eat time.02:33
ScottKIt's just hard to know what's going on with the rest of the distro.  If what you are doing doesn't require that, then it's fine.02:33
ScottKpkern: Agreed.02:33

=== jpatrick [n=patrick@218.Red-88-0-147.dynamicIP.rima-tde.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu
=== ScottK has made promises to himself to spend less time on IRC after the Gutsy release. We'll see.
ScottKpkern: Your sync is done.  Still need to wait for an RM to accept it into the archive.02:35
=== Martinp23 [n=martinp2@wikimedia/Martinp23] has joined #ubuntu-motu
broonieScottK: The spoon feeding thing can be dealt with if the mentor sets up good expectations about the level of handholding.02:39
broonieThat does require work on the part of the mentor, though.02:39
ScottKRight.  IMO the ones that need the spoon feeding aren't going to do much after you quit, but that's just me.02:39
persiabroonie: It's more than that: it's a general model.  For a while, we were just nitpicking about things, and it would have been faster just to do it (and probably taught the contributors more).  It's about philosophy as well as expectations.02:40
broonieYes. You can really help the people who don't need spoon feeding.02:40
persiaScottK: I'd disagree.  The first time I patched vegastrike, a MOTU practically wrote the patch for me.02:40
zulhobbsee not around yet?02:41
brooniepersia: I think that's just the same thing I'm saying, expressed a different way.02:41
persiabroonie: Possibly.  I get caught up in semantics.02:41
=== Martinp23 [n=martinp2@wikimedia/Martinp23] has joined #ubuntu-motu
=== ScottK views helping as different than spoon feeding.
=== broonie often uses a format along the lines of "I noticed these problems by doing such a set of checks, you probably want to fix them" (possibly with advice on how depending.
ScottKOr if it's minor, ... and I fixed them and uploaded it.  Next time ...02:44
persiabroonie: That's not always enough.  MOTU/Contributing explains exactly how to run lintian and linda, and still 90% of the time, requests for package reviews have not been checked.02:44
persiaScottK: I like that better.02:44
brooniepersia: I know. :(02:44

fernandomoin all02:48
ScottKYes, although the spoon feeding expectation here is substantially higher I think.02:48
persiabroonie: It's a little different, because new contributors are (or should be) encouraged to work on existing packages, rather than new ones, but otherwise similar.02:48
persiaAnd, yes, there's a much greater expectation of support.02:48
broonieYes - the reviewing part is the same.02:48
pkernWe filter more requests for sponsorship simply because they are badly made up.02:49
persiabroonie: Somewhat.  We do a lot of per-bug review, similar to non-DD contributions to some Debian teams, as well.02:49

ScottKIt's definitely faster than that in many cases.03:01
dholbachScottK: we had the discussion before: it's not mandatory at all to have a mentor03:01
=== Martinp23 [n=martinp2@wikimedia/Martinp23] has joined #ubuntu-motu
ScottKdholbach: Agreed.  I think that people don't understand that.03:01
dholbachScottK: we are trying to find a way for people who don't know where to start etc etc; it's hard to keep track of mentorees and people need guidelines03:01
persiaScottK: it wasn't really between dapper and feisty, but yes, it appears to be now03:01
dholbachScottK: a lot of people do and don't have a mentor03:01
ScottKdholbach: I've run into people who thought they couldn't contribute because they hadn't been assigned a mentor.  Not many, but it's happened.03:02
dholbachpersia: I did not do that change - I don't think it should be on that page03:02
persiaScottK: I think you have a good point: come to the meeting, and let's all determine a good way to present it to all parties.03:02
dholbachScottK: we should clarify that03:02
ScottKdholbach: I think it's a risk inherent in the existence of the formal process.03:03
dholbachScottK: please try to not assume that the people who run the mentoring are only there to make things more complicated :-/03:03
persiadholbach: Last changed by dholbach2 :)  Would you mind putting the right text in, with your council hat on?03:03
ScottKdholbach: I don't think that's the goal.  I think it MAY be the effect.  I'm not judging.03:03

=== Martinp23 [n=martinp2@wikimedia/Martinp23] has joined #ubuntu-motu
ScottKdholbach: One data point along these lines, when I recently suggested to someone that I thought they were ready to apply for MOTU, the response I got was that their mentor hadn't told them they were ready and so they couldn't be.03:12
persiaScottK: re: fluxbox.  Debian just merged it, but given the publishing schedule, I won't be able to process the new revision for ~44-46 hours.  I'll chase it then, but if you find a willing volunteer anytime after the next Debian publish, and then, please feel free to share it :)03:13

FujitsuIt should be there.03:14
dholbachScottK: what I see is: some new contributors have a need for dedicated one-on-one mentoring, we have people who are willing to do it, norsetto_limbo, highvoltage and I are trying to find a way to make it 1) not clash with existing processes/workflows, 2) the least painful way (by adding guidance, etc.)03:14
dholbachwe need to look at the whole problem and try to find a good way for it03:15
persiaFujitsu: No.  Perhaps a run just happened, and I didn't find the right status page.  Thanks for the pointer: this will likely make me more productive in the future.03:15
ScottKdholbach: I'm curious to know how many MOTUs this makes that wouldn't have made it anyway.03:15
=== persia doesn't believe MOTU should be a goal
dholbachScottK: I've experienced a lot people who were very motivated because they were encouraged by people who took the time to talk them through things in one-on-one conversations03:16
Hobbseeoh, fudge.  i forgot to put LongPointyStick in.03:16
Fujitsupersia: It only runs every 24 hours, and hasn't run within the last 12, but the look of things. So...03:16
dholbachif they would have made it without that, who knows03:16
dholbachnew contributors ask for it03:16
ScottKdholbach: Agreed and I've done that lots without a process.03:16
dholbachjust giving them a bunch of links and tell them to write to ubuntu-motu@ does not work for everybody03:16
highvoltage(not that I can claim to be 1/100th as cool as dholbach or norsetto)03:16
dholbachScottK: and I appreciate that03:17
persiaScottK: Sure, but it's annoying to get email from an interested person who doesn't IRC who wants to help when one is busy.  Better to have organisation to spread the load.03:17
ScottKHobbsee: Apparently I was wrong to Won't Fix Kmos's non-UVFe for Gutsy, I should have taken the time to edit the bug to be for Hardy.03:17
HobbseeScottK: right.  i think i did with one of his earlier03:17
ScottKpersia: Mailing list works for that.03:17

ScottKFujitsu: Thanks.  Unforntunately it was "wrong".03:18
persiaScottK: Perhaps, but I still received some personal inquiries pre-mentoring, and don't know (and others likely received more, as I wasn't MOTU when I started getting them)03:18
HobbseeScottK: then unsubscribe u-u-s, and motu-uvf, and he can stay subscribed to the bug.03:18
dholbachScottK: come on03:18
Hobbseebut it's much easier to mark as WONTFIX, as he likely wont ever action the bug for hardy anyway03:18
ScottKdholbach: My threshold with him is zero.03:18
dholbachhey guys, you know which effect it has on people if you just close their bugs03:19
ScottKdholbach: That would be benificial in this case.03:19

rexbronpersia: i see03:24
ScottKI will give him credit for stopping spamming backports after I slammed him just once.03:24
dholbachScottK: what do you mean?03:25
persiarexbron: Is there a way the package can be built without multiverse?  Suggests is permitted.03:25
ScottKHe started filing a bunch of backports that were, ummm, not all well thought out.  I pointed out that maybe we didn't want to backport the whole archive and he stopped.03:25
dholbachOk03:26
rexbronpersia: openlibraries is for harware accelerated graphics processing, it can be built without nVidia's cg-tools package and nVidia gelato, but afaik the performace benifits are negated03:26
persiarexbron: Do the performance benefits come back if the nVidia packages are later installed?03:26
rexbronpersia: I am currently trying to build the openlibs :)03:27
rexbronpersia: so I will find out sooner or later03:27
persiarexbron: Understood.  If you can build them in such a way that they dynamically link against either nVidia or mesa, depending on which is installed, you can depend on mesa, and the user can get the benefits if they install nVidia, it would result in a working package suitable for universe.03:28

=== Martinp23 [n=martinp2@wikimedia/Martinp23] has joined #ubuntu-motu
ScottKnorsetto: dholbach will no doubt roll his eyes when he reads this, but the main purpose of MOTU meetings is to discuss how MOTU works.  If the mentoring process is part of how MOTU works, then it ought to be in the MOTU meeting.  If this is a special meeting just for the people who are involved in the mentors process, then fine.03:49
persianorsetto: OK.  I suppose I should be glad it will be my Friday night.03:49
=== persia agrees with ScottK (oddly, twice in a single day)
norsettoscottK: no, its not just for people involved with mentoring03:50
norsettoscottk: which you do btw, just not officially03:50
ScottKI thought not, so I think it should be on the agenda for a MOTU meeting (it woudn't be unreasonable to limit other topics, although that hasn't been a problem recently).03:50
norsettoscottK: I thought it deserved a space on its own, but, personally, I'm happy if you guys decide it to be part of the regular MOTU meeting03:51
persiaAnother argument for adding it to the MOTU agenda is that people have already made arrangements to be available then.  Adding another hour may be difficult for those who find themselves in a workplace at that hour, or wish to sleep.03:51
dholbachI agree with norsetto03:51
dholbachit's going to be a longer discussion03:51
ScottKnorsetto: I know.  That's part of why I don't like having a separate process.03:52
persiaAh.  If it's going to be extra-long, perhaps a different meeting is better.  The audience is limited, but the results may be more useful.03:52

DaveMorrisone last question.  It contains 5 share objects, and the soname's don't match the package name.  Is this ok, or does it need to be broken down into 5 smaller packages?04:04

philnScottK: Loc Minier needs to review my changes on the package, he told me he'd do it one evening this week or this weekend04:05
persiaDaveMorris: It depends on the content.  If the libraries are useful independently, it should generate 10 small binary packages (libfoo + libfoo-dev).  If they are only support libraries for each other, and there is only one or two real clients, one package is acceptable (but not preferred).04:05
