| _16aR_ | norsetto: Is it an obligation ? I thought so | 12:42 |
| pkern | ScottK: aolserver4-nsopenssl is already rebuilt on all arches except amd64, which is why it showed up for me. | 12:42 |
| norsetto | _16aR_: no, its not an obligations. But, its a bit silly to have them in two packages which are linked dependency-wise | 12:43 |
| norsetto | _16aR_: like a lib and a lib-dev | 12:43 |

| norsetto | _16aR_: use .install or your install target to move them | 12:44 |
| _16aR_ | norsetto: so my .install has a function, no ? | 12:44 |
| pkern | DktrKranz: Could you look into that please? | 12:45 |

| _16aR_ | debian/tmp/usr/lib/librvrutils.so.0.0.0 usr/lib/ in librvrutils0.install : if i have let it into debian/tmp/usr/lib/, it couldn't have spearated from librcfg, no ? | 12:45 |
| DktrKranz | pkern, yes...looking | 12:45 |
| pkern | DktrKranz: Thanks. | 12:46 |
| DktrKranz | pkern, is a new version? I don't recall any nsopenssl | 12:46 |
| _16aR_ | norsetto: and I've another question : is it OK to package every .so into 1 .deb ? I've seen some package like OpenSceneGraph which are all .so into 1 package | 12:47 |
| norsetto | _16aR_: yes, because the second one is in debian/librvrutils/usr/lib | 12:47 |
| pkern | DktrKranz: No. | 12:47 |
| pkern | DktrKranz: Seperate source package. | 12:47 |
| DktrKranz | ok, thanks | 12:48 |
| pkern | DktrKranz: But build failed in aolserver4 postinst. | 12:48 |
| pkern | On amd64 only, though. | 12:48 |
| DktrKranz | anyway...it seems conflicting with an existing app which runs on port 80 | 12:48 |
| DktrKranz | sounds weird only to amd64, though | 12:48 |
| _16aR_ | norsetto: finally I was not too wrong on this then ^^ Phew | 12:48 |
| norsetto | _16aR_: you have few lintian E/W to work through too | 12:49 |
| norsetto | _16aR_: no, it was ok (cdbs magic :-)) | 12:49 |
| pkern | DktrKranz: Buildd app probably | 12:49 |
| pkern | DktrKranz: And the second line looks strange too. | 12:50 |
| DktrKranz | pkern, no amd64 boxes here...I'll try on PPA | 12:50 |

| PhreeStyle-home | hello, I'm interested in learning how to be a motu. I send an application in for a mentor a couple weeks ago and have not gotten any kind of response. I'm sure it's due to lack of manpower, so I'm wondering if someone here wouldn't mind being a mentor | 02:02 |
| RAOF | PhreeStyle-home: Ok. I'm sure someone here will, but just hanging around here is also good :) | 02:06 |
| PhreeStyle-home | thanks :) I was begining to wonder if my message was sent | 02:07 |
| RAOF | PhreeStyle-home: I'm a freshly minted MOTU, and I learnt primarily by hanging around here :) | 02:08 |
| PhreeStyle-home | well, I'm like a complete noob in all this...I am a windows developer, so coming into linux is a completely different ball game | 02:08 |
| PhreeStyle-home | I want to learn to eventually write applications for linux, so I figure a good start would be to learn how handle package management | 02:09 |
| RAOF | PhreeStyle-home: Ooooh, a bona-fide developer. What language(s)? What would you like to do? :{ | 02:09 |
| RAOF | :) | 02:09 |
| === bigon_ [n=bigon@213.219.162.4.adsl.dyn.edpnet.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| PhreeStyle-home | Well, I come from C#, so it's going to be a rough ride. | 02:10 |
| RAOF | PhreeStyle-home: No, not at all. See mono :) | 02:10 |
| PhreeStyle-home | I'm interested in desktop development...I like making front ends for otherwise tedious tasks | 02:11 |
| RAOF | Many of the windows apps youv'e coded should run without changes in linux anyway :) | 02:11 |
| RAOF | PhreeStyle-home: Oh, hurray! We always need more frontends ;) | 02:11 |
| === asac [n=asac@debian/developer/asac] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| PhreeStyle-home | Actually, I have not had good luck with mono | 02:11 |
| RAOF | Ah. | 02:11 |
| RAOF | Well, your C# knowledge should be largely portable, at least :). | 02:12 |
| PhreeStyle-home | most of my applications go a little farther than a notepad clone and if I even touch a listview control, you can bet it won't work right in linux | 02:12 |
| PhreeStyle-home | I sure hope so :) | 02:12 |
| RAOF | You'll probably want to learn the gtk# libraries, though. | 02:12 |
| PhreeStyle-home | the one thing that bothers me though is that mono is not highly looked upon | 02:13 |
| RAOF | I was under the impression that as long as you didn't p/invoke, mono was very nearly a .net dropin. But I've never needed to test it. | 02:13 |
| RAOF | PhreeStyle-home: Only by the uninformed. | 02:13 |
| PhreeStyle-home | possibly true | 02:14 |
| RAOF | PhreeStyle-home: Mono is an official Gnome dependency. | 02:14 |
| RAOF | (For tomboy, and f-spot) | 02:14 |
| PhreeStyle-home | well i figured I would end up writing gnome applications anyways...there's something about KDE that just rubs me the wrong way...not sure why | 02:14 |
| === bigon_ [n=bigon@213.219.161.136.adsl.dyn.edpnet.net] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| RAOF | PhreeStyle-home: I find it's the amazing over-abundance of options, at least last time I checked :) | 02:15 |
| PhreeStyle-home | Well that's true, but I've always had problems with consistency...with theming, menu arrangements and last time I used it, it was very buggy....applications wouldn't start unless started two or three times | 02:16 |
| PhreeStyle-home | and that was 3 months ago...that's the scary part | 02:16 |
| RAOF | So, there's actually nothing much that you need to know about packaging in order to do C# development. | 02:16 |
| PhreeStyle-home | well, even C# programs need to be packaged at some point, right? | 02:17 |
| slangasek | RAOF: lack of information is not why I don't look highly upon mono. :) | 02:17 |
| RAOF | slangasek: :P | 02:17 |
| === albert23 [n=albert@86.81.99.204] has left #ubuntu-motu [] | ||
| RAOF | PhreeStyle-home: True. But C# programs are generally easy, since your tools tend to put stuff in the right place automatically. | 02:17 |

| RAOF | slangasek: Why *do* you not look highly on mono? | 02:18 |
| PhreeStyle-home | i'm curious too...most say because of memory footprint and slowness | 02:18 |
| RAOF | PhreeStyle-home: Basically, as long as you release a tarball that builds your project from source, it's easy enough to package. | 02:18 |
| RAOF | (The frikkin' Tao project is an example of the contrary :() | 02:18 |
| imbrandon | PhreeStyle-home: take a look at monodevelop, 99% of my .net apps i write work without modification , normaly even not even recomilation in linux | 02:19 |
| imbrandon | just copy to the linux box, mono blah.exe and go, and no they arent notepad closes either | 02:19 |
| imbrandon | clones* | 02:20 |
| PhreeStyle-home | imbrandon: I tried monodevelop at version 0.14 and it crashed saving a code file only 5 lines long | 02:20 |
| slangasek | RAOF: PhreeStyle-home seems to have nailed it; that's very nice and all that some folks find C# makes development faster, but I'd like to run my desktop on real-world hardware thanks | 02:20 |
| slangasek | also, patents | 02:20 |
| zul | PhreeStyle-home, I would start at reading some documentation and looking at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/MTOU/TODO | 02:20 |
| zul | er http://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/TODO | 02:20 |
| === Vorian [n=Steve@ubuntu/member/pdpc.supporter.active.Vorian] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| imbrandon | slangasek: real world hardware? heh i do most of my development and packing on a p200 including mono | 02:21 |
| PhreeStyle-home | I looked at all the suggested reading for motu stuff, but I guess it will take a little hand-holding for me to understand it a bit better | 02:21 |
| === RAOF runs *his* desktop on real-world hardware, and the only mono thing that's slow is banshee, because it uses rubbish data-structures. | ||
| imbrandon | PhreeStyle-home: feel free to ask away, we always try to help out when we can | 02:21 |
| RAOF | PhreeStyle-home: Unless you're uncomfortable asking on a public channel like this, you don't *need* a mentor :) | 02:22 |
| RAOF | We're all very friendly here. | 02:22 |
| PhreeStyle-home | that's good to know....alot of times I go into a channel and get ignored...that is obviously not the case here :) | 02:22 |
| RAOF | (Except for LongPointyStick, she's sharp and dangerous :P) | 02:22 |
| PhreeStyle-home | :P | 02:22 |
| imbrandon | lol | 02:22 |
| RAOF | So, what's the changelog syntax for closing multiple bugs at once again? (LP: #bug1, #bug2, #bug3)? | 02:23 |
| PhreeStyle-home | well let me ask a question then, if I were to try and learn gtk# programming in c#, what would be a good sample application to try and build? | 02:24 |
| RAOF | PhreeStyle-home: As in: something we'd like to see, or something that exists that you can learn from? | 02:24 |
| PhreeStyle-home | I don't know.. either i guess | 02:24 |
| crimsun | RAOF: LP: #foo, LP: #foo, IME | 02:24 |
| PhreeStyle-home | something easy :) | 02:25 |
| PhreeStyle-home | the first app I thought of making was a front end to mount cifs shares that actually works | 02:25 |
| PhreeStyle-home | but i figured that would be a bad way to start...especially if I were to hose the fstab file | 02:25 |
| RAOF | That's probably not a great candidate right now, since gvfs is comming really soon now, and should be awesome. | 02:26 |
| imbrandon | banshie and f-spot are both gtk# iirc, but also not system.windows.forms also works just fine, i use that personaly for portability of pure .net accross windows/linux/osx | 02:26 |
| RAOF | tomboy notes is probably good, too. That's fairly simple. | 02:26 |
| imbrandon | s/not/note | 02:26 |
| RAOF | crimsun: Thanks. | 02:27 |
| PhreeStyle-home | so would it be a good idea to make it in system.windows.forms first, then try to port it to gtk#? Is that a good exercise? | 02:27 |
| imbrandon | PhreeStyle-home: personaly thats what i would do if you are wanting to learn gtk# , that way you see the relationship of them | 02:28 |
| imbrandon | but thats just how _i_ learn, do whats best for you | 02:29 |
| PhreeStyle-home | yea that might be the best thing then...if I have any problems running the system.windows.forms version on the linux side would I be able to get a little help in here? The mono channel is usually pretty empty | 02:29 |
| imbrandon | depends on the time and whats going on, but most likely a bit, but just rember its not a support chan and not all mono ( or even most ) devs | 02:30 |
| imbrandon | :) | 02:31 |
| PhreeStyle-home | i figured :) what is the most common programming language among devs? | 02:31 |
| imbrandon | in ubuntu ? python has a good following | 02:31 |
| RAOF | Python *does* rock :) | 02:33 |
| PhreeStyle-home | it will be a while before I get comfortable with python...I went through a few tutorials and the whole time I was trying to relate the information with what I know about C# and I think that is a bad way to approach Python...at least for me | 02:34 |

| slangasek | RAOF: I like my C code to work on all architectures just fine :) | 02:36 |
| RAOF | C (the way Gnome uses it)/C++ are OK. But as long as you've got unittests, python is so much more understandable I find. | 02:36 |
| RAOF | slangasek: You obviously don't write uint32_t when you mean intptr_t all the time then :( | 02:37 |
| slangasek | no, indeed I do not | 02:37 |
| === RAOF screams at the number of apps that do that. | ||
| PhreeStyle-home | ok, I know this is really, really bad...and I will get yelled at for this...but I don't really know how to use unit tests | 02:37 |
| slangasek | because I actually understand C :) | 02:37 |
| ajmitch | slangasek: sadly, not enough people do | 02:37 |
| slangasek | RAOF: (have been an alpha porter for Debian for years; amd64 folks have it *easy*) | 02:37 |
| RAOF | slangasek: You have the added fun of endianness, right? | 02:37 |
| slangasek | (i.e., try running a 64-bit platform /before/ 64-bit has achieved critical mass) | 02:38 |
| PhreeStyle-home | i know it's good coding practice and all, but I could never figure out how to use the testing in my code | 02:38 |
| slangasek | RAOF: nah, Linux/alpha is little-endian | 02:38 |
| RAOF | PhreeStyle-home: Not a lot of people do use unittests, at least that I find. Test-driven-development (a quick google should help here) is wonderful though, especially in python. | 02:38 |
| RAOF | You don't *have* to have unittests in python, but it's so much easier if you do :) | 02:39 |

| jtbl | the only other suggestion is to use an icon from kcheckgmail | 03:50 |
| ScottK | jtbl: At this point if we get a .desktop with artwork of some sort that's related to gmail, I think it'll be good. | 03:51 |

| ScottK | StevenK: You might want to refresh and look at my comment before yours unless I'm misreading "do it" | 04:31 |
| persia | ScottK2: Drop the extension from checkgmail.svg: that way someone can theme it with a .png (or whatever). It eyeballs fine: does desktop-file-validate produce anything? | 04:32 |
| ScottK | No result at all. I'll drop that | 04:32 |
| persia | ScottK2: Drop the modified .desktop file also in debian/ | 04:33 |
| ScottK2 | It's there | 04:33 |
| persia | Does the package use dh_install or CDBS? | 04:33 |
| ScottK2 | dh_install | 04:33 |
| persia | Easy then. Add 'usr/share/pixmaps' and 'usr/share/applications' to either debian/dirs or debian/checkgmail.dirs (as appropriate) | 04:34 |
| pkern | Hm. /me is not tired. | 04:34 |
| pkern | But I guess I should sleep anyway. \: | 04:34 |
| persia | Install the .svg to usr/share/pixmaps and the .desktop to usr/share/applications in the .install file. | 04:34 |
| persia | (for those just lurking: if neither dh_install nor CDBS is in use, one must edit the rules file to manually install things) | 04:35 |
| pkern | Yeehaw MOTU school. :D | 04:36 |
| ScottK2 | pkern: I try real hard to avoid this GUI stuff. | 04:36 |
| ScottK2 | persia: Looking again, dh_install is commented out in debian/rules | 04:37 |
| ScottK2 | There is dh_installmenu enabled. | 04:37 |
| persia | ScottK2: Your call: I usually uncomment, but you can also do the install -m 644 stuff. | 04:37 |
| ScottK2 | Uncomment and add a .install file I guess | 04:38 |
| RAOF | Also, in future this logic is planned to be moved to dh_icons at some point, irght? | 04:38 |
| persia | dh_installmenu is for .menu files, rather than for .desktop files. While the Debian menu can be enabled in Ubuntu, doing so isn't trivial, and not intended by default. On the other hand, populating menu files is best practice for feeding Debian. | 04:38 |
| persia | RAOF: No. It would be part of dh_desktop. | 04:38 |
| === persia notes that the current implementation of dh_desktop is only useful for configuring the MIME database, but it should be better at some point in the future | ||
| persia | ScottK2: That's it. Maintainer mangle, Add changelog, Build, install, and there should be an icon in the menu. | 04:40 |
| ScottK2 | persia: Is it gonna work on KDE? | 04:40 |
| bddebian | Should | 04:40 |

| tonyyarusso | Okay, added in LP as well as Bug #151475 | 05:01 |
| ubotu | Launchpad bug 151475 in drivel "Drivel can not handle multiple categories" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/151475 | 05:02 |
| persia | In install:, but looking at http://diablo.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/man/man2html?dh_icons+1, it only taks about gtk-update-icon-cache. Doesn't KDE have an icon cache? I need to look to figure out how to update. | 05:02 |
| ScottK2 | persia: I told you I stay away from this kind of stuff. | 05:03 |
| persia | ScottK: Are you using KDE3 or KDE4? Icon cache is supposed to be in KDE4, but not in KDE3. If there's no cache, I'm not sure why the icon isn't loading, as svg icon support was added to KDE in 2002. | 05:03 |
| ScottK2 | Trying dh_icons | 05:03 |
| ScottK2 | KDE3 | 05:04 |
| === persia is confused. | ||
| ScottK2 | It should be there for Gnome anyway, so I'll leave it regardless | 05:04 |
| === ScottK2 too. | ||
| ScottK2 | Fortunately the package builds pretty quickly. | 05:05 |
| persia | ScottK2: My apologies. Usually it just works (at least for me). | 05:05 |
| persia | bddebian: Any ideas? | 05:05 |
| ScottK | imbrandon: You around? | 05:05 |
| bddebian | Sorry, what'd I miss | 05:06 |
| ScottK | Well, as expected, that didn't help. | 05:06 |
| persia | bddebian: The .svg is in usr/share/pixmaps, and properly referenced by the .desktop file, but doesn't display in the K-menu. KDE3 doesn't use the freedesktop icon cache, so dh_icons doesn't matter. | 05:07 |
| ScottK2 | Let me look at what kcheckgmail does a little closer. | 05:07 |
| bddebian | You can try dh_iconcache but it shouldn't be necessary | 05:07 |
| === persia notes that dh_iconcache was a temporary Ubuntu hack, and has been superceded by dh_icons | ||
| bddebian | Ah, see what do I know? :-) | 05:08 |
| ScottK | I do have working .svg icons in /usr/share/pixmaps. | 05:12 |
| ScottK | Looking to see where kcheckgmail hides it's icon | 05:13 |
| bddebian | Does the menu item show at all and not the icon or does the icon just not appear | 05:13 |
| persia | ScottK: Just to confirm, you have "Icon=checkgmail" and /usr/share/pixmaps/checkgmail.svg, right? | 05:14 |
| imbrandon | ScottK: yea, now i am | 05:14 |
| ScottK | imbrandon: I'm trying to add a .desktop with an icon to checkgmail and it doesn't work (no icon) in KDE. Any hints? Scrollback for painful amounts of detail. | 05:15 |
| ScottK | persia: Double checking | 05:15 |
| imbrandon | ScottK: whats the icon filetype | 05:15 |
| ScottK2 | .svg | 05:15 |
| imbrandon | kde3 dosent do svg icons | 05:15 |
| persia | imbrandon: Really? There are patches out there for svg icons since 2002. | 05:16 |
| bddebian | I was thinking that but I wasn't sure | 05:16 |
| ScottK2 | Hmmm. | 05:16 |
| imbrandon | persia: yea i have no idea why no one has added it but thats the case | 05:16 |
| ScottK2 | Well that would explain it. | 05:16 |
| imbrandon | we've run into it before | 05:16 |
| persia | ScottK: You said you had working svg icons. Which? | 05:17 |
| ScottK | persia: Well wine drops a .svg into usr/share/pixmaps. I assume that was the icon I was seing, but maybe not. | 05:17 |
| persia | ScottK: Is there also a wine.ping or wine.xpm? | 05:17 |
| persia | s/pin/pn/ | 05:18 |
| ScottK2 | All the wine stuff in there is .svg | 05:18 |

| ScottK2 | If this is a KDE only issue, we needn't worry. | 05:20 |
| persia | ScottK: So kcheckgmail generates .pngs from the .svg for installation? That's an excellent example of providing source for binaries :) | 05:21 |
| cereal_killer | when i pack build my deb everything goes fine but there should be files under DEBIAN/usr and others so the file heirachy is not being created and therefore i'm basically creating an empty .deb | 05:21 |

| cereal_killer | it's telling me it's making the files in the directories though lol | 05:30 |
| cereal_killer | well, creating them in the debian dir | 05:30 |
| bddebian | cereal_killer: Yes, once you have the debian/ dir created from dh_make and make any appropriate changes. You would typically run dpkg-buildpackage or debuild to build your source and/or binary packages. If you pass -us (unsigned source) and -uc (don't clean the tree) it will leave whatever files it creates under debian/ | 05:30 |
| cereal_killer | what is debuild? I've never heard of that | 05:31 |
| bddebian | It's just like dpkg-buildpackage. I don't personally use it but many do | 05:32 |
| cereal_killer | discard that question | 05:32 |

| joejaxx | but i think there is a systemwide setting for it as i do not think we went through and removed the install hooks in the postinst for packages | 06:15 |
| _nand_ | lol it seems we are in the subject already :) | 06:16 |
| joejaxx | lol :) | 06:16 |
| persia | _nand_: man dh_installmenu and the menu package documentation | 06:16 |
| _nand_ | persia: i have read about the file menu e.g. ?package(ike): .... | 06:17 |
| _nand_ | persia: but what if i want to install a .desktop file? | 06:17 |
| _nand_ | it don't have enough information to generate it from the menu file... | 06:18 |
| === _nand_ is searching... | ||
| persia | _nand_: Ah. That's not the debian menu at all :). | 06:18 |
| _nand_ | persia: hmm... do i have to make a menu entry for both debian and kde/gnome? | 06:19 |
| persia | There's a (bad) script to leverage the menu-xdg package to autogenerate the .desktop files available from https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Packages/DesktopFiles | 06:19 |
| persia | _nand_: You'll want two entries: a menu file and a .desktop file. They are separate, but both usful. | 06:19 |
| _nand_ | ok i have them :) Any pointer on an automatic way to install the .desktop file, or do i just add a line in the rule file? | 06:20 |
| _nand_ | (to do it "properly" ) | 06:21 |
| persia | _nand_: You'll need to install manually. If the package uses dh_install or CDBS, putting it in the debian/package.install file is preferable to adding a line to debian/rules. If the package uses debhelper, but not dh_install (and is obviously not a dh_make template), use dh_install lines in debian rules. Otherwise, use install -m 644 | 06:22 |
| joejaxx | persia: for example for the installation of non-modified debian packages on ubuntu the menu does not generate which is why i am looking for the systemwide change :) | 06:22 |
| persia | _nand_: Icons go in /usr/share/pixmaps, .desktop files go in /usr/share/applications, and .desktop files should neither specify a path nor an extension for the icon. | 06:23 |
| _nand_ | persia: ok thanks for the info! | 06:23 |
| persia | joejaxx: Ah. Do you mean the magic that auto-generates .desktop files from the Debian menu, and inserts the results into the regular system menu? That's in the menu-xdg package. | 06:23 |
| joejaxx | persia: no :P i mean whatever hook that was disabled in ubuntu stopping update-menus from running everytime a package was installed | 06:25 |
| persia | joejaxx: I didn't know such a thing was in place. I don't see it in the pseudochangelog shown from https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debhelper, nor do there appear to be any Ubuntu patch to the menu or menu-xdg packages. | 06:28 |
| joejaxx | persia: yes that is why i am confused to why this is happening | 06:28 |
| joejaxx | since none of those packages are changed | 06:28 |
| joejaxx | and we definitely did not go through all the debian packages and rip out any update-menu postinst hooks | 06:29 |
| persia | joejaxx: The especially odd bit is that I've seen changes to my Debian menu when installing packages on my workstation recently, for which I expect update-menus would need to run, and previous in-channel discussion on .desktop files has shown that the standard menus are updating on instalation. | 06:29 |

| StevenK | What version? | 06:34 |
| ScottK | 0.9.46 | 06:34 |
| persia | OK. dh_installmenu from debhelper-5.0.51ubuntu3 inserts postinst and postrm hooks to call update-menus, if `which update-menus` succeeds. | 06:34 |
| joejaxx | persia: yeah | 06:35 |
| joejaxx | hmm | 06:35 |
| joejaxx | brb testing a theory | 06:36 |

| Hobbsee | ScottK: ENOARCHIVEACCESS | 06:55 |
| ScottK | Hobbsee: OK. | 06:55 |
| jtbl | however the non-free section is different | 06:55 |
| persia | jtbl: When you say non-free, do you mean restricted/multiverse, commercial, medibuntu, or all of the above? | 06:56 |
| jtbl | i have check the amd64 packages in non-free and they install 32bit components into 64 bit directories | 06:56 |
| === Frogzoo [n=Frogzoo@202.155.165.25] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| jtbl | like placing stuff in /usr/lib instead of /usr/lib32 | 06:56 |
| jtbl | the non-free section in medibuntu | 06:57 |
| jtbl | medibuntu has two sections free and non free | 06:57 |
| jtbl | non free contains closed source software like skype, acrobat reader, and google earth | 06:57 |
| persia | jtbl: Ah. That's clearly wrong. | 06:57 |
| Hobbsee | how are tehy managing acrobat reader? | 06:58 |
| persia | ScottK: When you next feel like chasing really-undistributable, perhaps you'll chase the medibuntu packages? | 06:58 |
| jtbl | however their packages for amd64 install 32 bit binaries and libraries where only 64 bit versions should be | 06:58 |
| ScottK | persia: No. | 06:58 |
| === persia intensely dislikes hunting down random 32-bit code on 64-bit systems. | ||
| jtbl | the cool thing is that adobe now has a deb of acrobat reader on their site | 06:59 |
| jtbl | but only for i386 | 06:59 |
| jtbl | however they install acrobat reader into /opt | 06:59 |
| StevenK | Ew | 06:59 |
| jtbl | so it would make building an amd64 package easy | 06:59 |
| jtbl | as far as google earth automatix just pulls it directly from google | 07:00 |
| jtbl | and installs it using google's installer | 07:00 |
| ScottK | May main beef with Automatix was installing stuff from Ubuntu repos that didn't need any extra help, moving files to non-standard locations, various dangerous stuff like sigkilling dpkg, and having the nerve to blame unfixed Ubuntu bugs as why there stuff didn't work when they hadn't tried to help fix the bugs. | 07:00 |

| ScottK | None of that applies to medibuntu. | 07:00 |
| ScottK | That's a change. At least if you're on 64bit. | 07:01 |
| jtbl | here is what we do on amd64 | 07:01 |
| === ScottK is on 32 bit, so ... | ||
| ScottK | But since I live in the US, I'd never install that stuff anyway. | 07:01 |
| jtbl | for acrobat reader we take the tar.gz directly from adobe and place it in /opt/automatix/acrobatreader | 07:01 |
| jtbl | same goes for skype | 07:01 |
| jtbl | and for google earth we use the official google method of installation | 07:02 |
| jtbl | now their packages are just fine on 32 bit | 07:02 |
| jtbl | and the free packages are ok on both platforms | 07:03 |
| jtbl | its the nonfree packages on 64 bit i would avoid | 07:03 |
| jtbl | also some people install 32 bit software on amd64 by taking an i386 deb and using --force-architecture | 07:05 |
| jtbl | automatix doesnt do that | 07:05 |

| _nand_ | hey, i have another packaging question :) | 08:01 |
| Hobbsee | shoot | 08:01 |
| _nand_ | the app i package is providing .so libs that he only will use | 08:02 |
| _nand_ | so it is necessary to provides shlibs files? | 08:02 |
| Hobbsee | checked what the debian library packaging guide says? | 08:02 |
| === Hobbsee doesnt know - doesnt do libraries | ||
| persia | http://www.netfort.gr.jp/~dancer/column/libpkg-guide/libpkg-guide.html | 08:03 |
| persia | _nand_: The official guide is the URL above, but you will need a shlibs file if you expect any clients to depend on the library, otherwise they won't get automated dependency management. | 08:04 |
| _nand_ | yes they say i should... but in my case no one will ever depend of these libs | 08:04 |
| _nand_ | so ok let's say i will put shlibs file | 08:04 |
| persia | _nand_: If you have internal libraries (as I think you may), you can omit this file. In general, best practice is to split the package into separate binaries, and provide shlibs, just in case. | 08:04 |
| _nand_ | persia: ok that was what i was looking for | 08:05 |
| _nand_ | thx | 08:05 |
| persia | _nand_: There will never be any clients? In that case, why a shared library? | 08:05 |
| === MagnusR [n=magru@d31192.smhi.se] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||
| _nand_ | persia: i was meaning they won't be a separate package using these shared libs | 08:05 |
| _nand_ | maybe later, but right now no | 08:05 |
| persia | _nand_: If "maybe later", better to have multiple binary packages (foo, libfoo, and libfoo-dev), and ship a shlibs file. If "never", better to link statically. | 08:06 |
| _nand_ | persia: you're right | 08:07 |
| persia | In the rare case where it's "never", and the upstream build system doesn't support static linking against the private library, you can skip the package split and shlibs file. | 08:08 |
| _nand_ | persia: i should check with upstream :) | 08:09 |

| LaserJock_ | compiz was just acting weird, I don't know if it was slowing down anything necessarily | 08:41 |

| persia | Makes sense. Looking at the logs, there's not been much work on scrollkeeper in the past 4 months. I suspect it needs a poke, as scrollkeeper-update seems like a major target for the postinstall-hooks (e.g. Bug #44535) | 08:46 |

| dholbach | that could be done with dpkg triggers | 08:57 |
| dholbach | if somebody sat down and did it | 08:57 |
| dholbach | it's not going to happen for gutsy | 08:57 |
| persia | dholbach: Ah. I didn't think the trigger would be that hard. I won't bother with it if it's that definite that it can't happen for gutsy. | 08:58 |
| === persia sees the published decision from 19.07.07 | ||
| dholbach | you can try to talk to the release team, but I guess there's going to be a certain reluctance 7 days away from release | 08:59 |
| dholbach | there's a lot that can go wrong: fucked up postinst, non-installable packages, etc etc | 08:59 |
| persia | dholbach: I guess it depends on whether other testers have similar experiences. Based on Ian's statement, I get the impression that triggers work, but need some real testing, and aren't suitable for gutsy. | 09:00 |

| pwnguin | well, uinput seems to default to root perms only | 10:24 |
| pwnguin | this is quasireasonable | 10:24 |
| persia | pwnguin: Right. uinput allows the injection of anything to the kernel, so can simulate devices to which the user would not otherwise have access. | 10:25 |
| persia | If you just want to feed a <cr>, it's easier to use the user's current input device, to which the user can typically write, and inject it into the stream there. | 10:25 |

| pwnguin | this sounds like it assumes x | 10:26 |
| persia | pwnguin: Nope. /dev/input/foo is one injection point. /dev/ttybar is another. Determining the user's environment sufficiently to inject the input is a separate issue. | 10:28 |
| pwnguin | persia: i meant the fix | 10:28 |
| pwnguin | so removing uinput is possible | 10:28 |

| pwnguin | persia: currently, the uinput stuff mostly works. sudo is fine, and so is gdm. gnome-screensaver-dialog, however, runs as a user, not suid | 10:32 |
| persia | pwnguin: So the remaining issue is to trap & catch the "lock screen" prompt from the screensaver? | 10:33 |
| pwnguin | persia: this means a) it cannot access the authentication data, and b) it can't grab uinput to write that <CR> | 10:33 |
| persia | pwnguin: How does gnome-screensaver-dialog currently pass credentials to pam? | 10:34 |
| pwnguin | persia: well, remaining issue i care about. it doesn't have localization support, and im sure it needs more thought | 10:34 |
| pwnguin | i dont think g-s-d passes credentials... | 10:35 |
| pwnguin | g-s-d loads various pam modules | 10:35 |
| pwnguin | as per pam standards, and they do their business | 10:35 |
| pwnguin | persia: at the moment, i patched in some ACL support, and people say it works as long as they add themselves to root for uinput support | 10:37 |
| pwnguin | this sounds bad to me | 10:37 |
| persia | pwnguin: It's roughly as bad as the user being able to sudo without a password. | 10:38 |
| pwnguin | so it defeats the purpose of the entire package | 10:39 |
| persia | pwnguin: Well, the authentication is strong, but the authorisation weak. Perhaps slightly different issues. | 10:39 |

| persia | g-s-d would be responsible for calling these functions in the pam modules it is configured to support. | 10:47 |

| persia | norsetto: He's requesting that we pull from upstream, rather than pulling from Debian. The new icons are not DFSG-free, but they appear to be Ubuntu-free at first glance at the license. | 01:18 |
| norsetto | persia: I think we should then suggest him to open another bug specific on that, so that the desktop people can comment | 01:19 |
| persia | norsetto: That seems like a lot of extra work. If you want to do something towards license rationalisation, it makes more sense to me for you to just open the bug. My experience with upstreams is that they have only limited interest in distribution beauracracy, and tend to retreat rather than participating (although they can certainly be attracted by collaboration). | 01:21 |
| persia | My personal take on it is that it's too late for gutsy, but as I'm a sensors-applet user, I'll consider pulling from upstream for an early hardy merge, rather than pulling from Debian. | 01:21 |
| persia | (not even filing a bug) | 01:22 |
| norsetto | persia: well, that seems to be the best really | 01:22 |
| norsetto | persia: the only problem is that between me and you, opening the bug would have meant having a record and the concurrence (or not) of seb128's gang | 01:24 |
| persia | My philosophy is that bugs get filed by people who either don't understand the issue, don't have time to address it, or don't have permission to fix it. Anything else just seems like handwaving. | 01:24 |
| norsetto | persia: ok, I'll draw seb128 attention to it | 01:25 |
| norsetto | persia: it is true that the icons are pretty ugly .... | 01:26 |
| persia | norsetto: If sensors-applet reported the Desktop Team as the maintainer, I'd completely agree with you. Because it reports MOTU, I'd say it's only about 50% important. This is especially the case because there are no Ubuntu variations. | 01:26 |
| norsetto | persia: ah, I thought it was part of the Desktop team heritage | 01:27 |
| persia | norsetto: It may be: I haven't actually researched the package history. If so, then yes, it is appropriate to ping them, and a bug may be the best way to do that. | 01:27 |

| DrKranz | persia, a couple of times, but I wanted you to know about it | 01:32 |
| persia | norsetto: OK. That shouldn't be environment-specific, but I'll give it a shot. Where's the package (source preferred)? | 01:33 |
| persia | DktrKranz: Because I touched it before? No worries. I was only chasing the RC list, and really know very little about it. Thanks for the note. | 01:33 |
| norsetto | persia: if you prefer the source than perhaps its better if you use apt-get source and apply the patch | 01:33 |
| === persia queues that for the near future. | ||
| norsetto | persia: I just installed it and didn't see anything relevant on screen | 01:39 |
| persia | norsetto: What did you use to install? | 01:40 |
| norsetto | persia: dpkg, thats maybe why? | 01:40 |
| persia | norsetto: That'd do it. For a proper test, you'll need to fake a repo. From what I understand, NEWS notification is an apt-level function rather than a dpkg-level function. | 01:41 |
| ScottK | asisak: We got the checkgmail .desktop thing done while you were sleeping. Thanks for offering to work on it. | 01:42 |
| norsetto | persia: ok, let me check if I can override the dependancies with apt-get then | 01:42 |
| norsetto | persia: actually, I wonder if that is implemented in synaptics/adept too | 01:44 |
| persia | norsetto: It ought to be. From what I understand, those are just GUIs for libapt, although I may be mistaken (the newer .desktop-driven easy installer is quite low-level, and that backend may be used in preference). | 01:45 |
| DktrKranz | persia, given back and succesfully built (FYI) | 01:47 |

| blueyed | StevenK: it builds here for i386 ?! (are you on amd64?) | 01:54 |

| blueyed | StevenK: I've just uploaded it to my ppa to test the build | 01:54 |
| ScottK | persia: Someone else pointed out that the version we had if sufficiently anciean (1.x versus 2.x) as to be effectively unuseable and filed a removal bug. | 01:55 |

The threshold for specific patches for demonstrable bugs in the Ubuntu packages is lower than for new upstreams. | 02:03 |

| pkern | ScottK: Ok. | 02:08 |
| ScottK | zerwas: If you have specific patches that fix serious bugs, it's possible someone here could get them in. | 02:09 |
| pkern | ScottK: The patch is so trivial that the only thing which could fail IMHO is the installation. (Although there is NO reason for it.) So simple install testing is sufifcient. | 02:09 |

| CyberMatt | ok | 02:37 |

| persia | blueyed: set up wanna-build, and make it feed sbuild. | 03:12 |
| Riddell | blueyed: it may need a build-dep on python-qt-dev | 03:12 |

| blueyed | persia: according to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SbuildLVMHowto ? | 03:16 |
| persia | blueyed: That's a good start (use the script), but it only does the sbuild side. Auto-feeding from wanna-build can help with multiple-architecture builds (if you have the hardware). You also want to install extra packages in the chroot like pkg-create-dbgsym and pkgbinarymangler (I don't know the complete list). | 03:18 |

| norsetto | dholbach: the warning that the applet should be removed and re-installed for the changes to take effect | 04:05 |
| pkern | Now that sync cron stuff we had quite often now. | 04:05 |
| pkern | And nobody found it. :-P | 04:05 |
| === pkern ponders to volunteer for some administration work. | ||
| Hobbsee | CyberMatt: yeah, give me a bit, i'm fighting with it. | 04:06 |
| dholbach | norsetto: is there no other way but purge & install? | 04:06 |
| === Hobbsee WILL PREVAIL!!! | ||
| persia | dholbach: It's not a purge/install, it's a "Remove from panel, Add to panel". | 04:07 |
| imbrandon | pkern: hehe we actualy have a "team" to admin them but i've been slacking ( pkern its in #ubuntuwire if your interested in the future when things settle ) | 04:07 |
| dholbach | persia: oh ok | 04:07 |
| === persia looks forward to the future: it sounds ideal | ||
| norsetto | dholbach: its not purge/install, its just removing from the panel and reinstalling | 04:07 |
| CyberMatt | sure ill go get Anope irc services and work on that package for a while | 04:08 |
| dholbach | norsetto: right - it's very hard to hack this into the code | 04:08 |
| imbrandon | Hobbsee: it might have , but not afaik, i am hoping it dident so it will resync my keys also | 04:08 |
| imbrandon | thus asking you to check | 04:08 |
| imbrandon | ;) | 04:08 |
| norsetto | dholbach: yes, so, is it worth adding it to preinst? | 04:08 |
| dholbach | norsetto: what firefox does is print "please restart all running firefoxes, ..." during installation | 04:08 |
| norsetto | dholbach: postinst actually | 04:08 |
| dholbach | you can't guarantee that people will read it | 04:08 |
| StevenK | Firefox also does a notify | 04:09 |
| CyberMatt | I like irc stuff and there's not much in the universe | 04:09 |
| dholbach | but I guess it's the easiest | 04:09 |
| dholbach | way | 04:09 |
| norsetto | dholbach: yes, you can, but I think it is better than a NEWS that nobody even know it exists | 04:09 |
| === henrix [i=miguel@84.90.24.110] has left #ubuntu-motu ["Ex-Chat"] | ||
| dholbach | right | 04:09 |
| dholbach | debconf notice would work too | 04:09 |
| dholbach | that's more work | 04:09 |
| norsetto | dholbach: yeah, ok, I will add a postint with the notice then | 04:10 |
| CyberMatt | hence inspircd Anope BOPM | 04:10 |
| dholbach | great, norsetto | 04:10 |
| persia | joejaxx: I'm now very confused. If I execute update-menus, the menus get updated. update-menus is definitely called in the postinst. The actual menu update seems delayed somehow (by some minutes). I'm guessing it's that the XDG menu building process for the logged-in user waits for idle time to execute, so that even though the menu files are updated, the user may not see them. | 04:10 |
| imbrandon | CyberMatt: you dont have to stick strictly to universe, main bugs are alsways welcome fixes too, you just need diffrent sponsors for uploads ( but there are core-devs in here too, including myself ) | 04:10 |
| norsetto | dholbach: danke! | 04:10 |
| persia | dholbach: Thanks for the debhelper suggestion. That's much more visible. | 04:10 |
| joejaxx | persia: interesting | 04:10 |
| Hobbsee | CyberMatt: right, it should appear. | 04:10 |
| StevenK | blueyed: I'm guessing it failed | 04:11 |
| pkern | imbrandon: I thought there were almost no admins besides siretart? | 04:12 |
| pkern | imbrandon: And only sparky left? | 04:12 |
| blueyed | StevenK: no, it was missing a dependency (because of the component). I've re-uploaded it as ~ppa1, which is now PendingRemoval. I'll try a re-upload as "3". | 04:13 |
| StevenK | blueyed: Way cool | 04:13 |

| TheMuso | Or anybody else? ^^ | 04:16 |
| persia | TheMuso: You can get a REVU admin to add you to the REVU admin group. If you do this, you can then run a few special commands, and get access to special areas on-disk. This allows you to resync the keyring, authorise people to comment (e.g. non-LP-primary email addresses), clean up after broken uploads, troubleshoot upload issues, check for accout statuses, etc. | 04:17 |

| persia | CyberMatt: REVU includes some automated package checking tools: look at the linda and lintian links. Ideally you'll update the package so that these are nearly empty (there are a couple exceptions). For extra cleanliness, call lintian and linda with the arguments listed in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Contributing | 04:19 |

| joejaxx | well the fluxbox menu depends on it | 04:30 |
| persia | joejaxx: Ah. Is this new for fluxbox 1.0.0, or was it also true for 1.0.0rc3? | 04:31 |
| joejaxx | i believe it was true of rc3 as well | 04:31 |
| joejaxx | i would have to do a test though | 04:31 |
| asac | pkern: why did you upload a new upstream version of flashplugin-nonfree? | 04:31 |
| joejaxx | fluxbox has had a new maintainer since 0.9 | 04:31 |
| joejaxx | well in debian that is | 04:32 |
| persia | joejaxx: No need. I was just worried that the recent effort to get a release rather than an RC in had broken that. | 04:32 |

| Ash-Fox | persia, thanks. | 04:35 |

| asac | pkern: you dropped all ubuntu specific changes | 04:35 |
| persia | joejaxx: You could, but without understanding the issue, I'm not sure that helps. | 04:35 |

| joejaxx | it is last resort :P | 04:41 |
| joejaxx | i rather fix the larger issue | 04:42 |
| persia | joejaxx: I'm getting unreproducible behaviour. Sometimes the menu files are still there after `dpkg -P sgt-puzzles`, and sometimes they're not. The same for installation. If I do nothing for a bit, things become more sane (although the timing varies). | 04:42 |
| joejaxx | the reason why there is no menu in fluxbox is because the menu is including a fluxbox men-method generated file which is not generated | 04:43 |
| joejaxx | menu-* | 04:43 |
| joejaxx | persia: that is interesting | 04:43 |
| persia | joejaxx: Is this consistently reproducible? I'm getting better behaviour the more times I try it, which may be related to file caching (including archive caching). | 04:44 |
| === Gasten [n=Gasten@h14n5c1o1095.bredband.skanova.com] has joined #ubuntu-motu | ||

| joejaxx | i wonder how i can stop it from doing that | 04:57 |
| persia | joejaxx: Reading the source, it appears that update-menus forks when first called, and the child waits for the dpkg-lock to clear. Additional calls are nop events, as update-menus doesn't allow itself to be run twice. When the dpkg lock clears (and all the menu files should be installed), update-menus processes everything currently installed on the system, and completely rebuilds the menus. Before processing everything, it attempts to get a sp | 04:57 |
| persia | joejaxx: You really don't want it not to fork. It reads all the menu files every time, so installing more than one package would be a nightmare. | 04:58 |

| persia | joejaxx: I must be off. Best of luck. | 05:07 |
| persia | Hobbsee: Thanks for all your work. I'll try a test in ~6/7 hours, and again in ~20 (just in case). | 05:08 |

| Hobbsee | persia: i dotn think imbrandon's fixed it, has he? | 05:08 |

| bluekuja | so let's move to pratic side | 07:10 |
| amachu_ | ok | 07:11 |
| bluekuja | amachu_: are you interested in a package in particular? | 07:11 |
| albert23 | Whoopie: yes, I did. It couldn't resume again. The splash did show nicely when it went in hibernate though | 07:11 |
| bluekuja | amachu_: something you use often or would like to have included in the archive? | 07:11 |
| amachu_ | few min.. | 07:11 |
| amachu_ | i have come across few | 07:11 |
| Whoopie | albert23: what happened on resume? | 07:11 |
| amachu_ | let me try recollecting | 07:11 |
| albert23 | Whoopie: it just rebooted, so I lost my swap again | 07:12 |
| amachu_ | yes | 07:12 |
| amachu_ | the scim-tables-additional | 07:12 |
| amachu_ | few new keyboard tables to be added to that | 07:12 |
| amachu_ | for indian languages | 07:13 |
| albert23 | Whoopie: Without uswsusp hibernate and resume work fine | 07:13 |
| amachu_ | bluekuja: you there | 07:13 |
| bluekuja | amachu_: do you have an upstream website for that? | 07:13 |
| bluekuja | amachu_: yeah, sorry for the delay | 07:14 |
| Whoopie | albert23: that's really strange. do you have any idea why it just rebooted? did you check the initramfs size before and after install? | 07:14 |
| Whoopie | albert23: would be interesting if it's the initramfs update which happens during install. | 07:14 |
| amachu_ | bluekuja: http://www.scim-im.org/ | 07:14 |
| bluekuja | amachu_: I guess scim is already packaged | 07:15 |
| albert23 | Whoopie: no, I only checked if the right uuid was in /etc/initramfs/conf.d/resume | 07:15 |
| bluekuja | andrea@nightsong:~$ apt-cache madison scim | 07:15 |

| Whoopie | albert23: please change the "resume device" to the /dev/sdaXX instead of the UUID. Then "sudo update-initramfs -k 2.6.22-14-generic -c" | 07:31 |

| Whoopie | albert23: one step forward :) same was here, but I thought, it was my laptop. :( | 07:38 |
| albert23 | Whoopie: I think the splash changed to a lower resolution then I normally have? | 07:38 |
| Whoopie | albert23: it uses /etc/usplash.conf as source for the resolution | 07:39 |
| albert23 | Whoopie: so now just a hard reboot? Network is also still down | 07:40 |
| Whoopie | albert23: yes, sorry | 07:40 |
| albert23 | Whoopie: no problem, it can't be as bad as what mkswap did yesterday | 07:41 |
| Whoopie | albert23: great, thanks for your help. We need to find out why your /etc/uswsusp.conf had UUID and why it hangs at 100% | 07:42 |

| amachu | ok | 07:48 |

| Whoopie | albert23: <Mithrandir> Whoopie: hanging on 100% is known, alt-sysrq-k fixes it. | 07:48 |

| bluekuja | amachu: first step | 07:49 |
| === hendrixski tried it... ooh, that's handy | ||
| bluekuja | amachu: find a source to package | 07:49 |
| amachu | ok | 07:49 |
| bluekuja | amachu: something you think it's useful to have packaged | 07:49 |
| bluekuja | amachu: something you love | 07:49 |
| amachu | and that should not be in ubuntu now | 07:49 |
| bluekuja | amachu: something that can improve ubuntu | 07:49 |
| amachu | bluekuja: ok | 07:49 |
| albert23 | Whoopie: ok, will try | 07:49 |
| bluekuja | amachu: yep | 07:50 |
| amachu | yes | 07:50 |
| amachu | i will | 07:50 |
| deitarion | pkern: OK. One other question: I've been considering just setting up an Ubuntu chroot on my system and I was wondering how much space that would probably take and how to get a nice minimal compilation-oriented setup. | 07:50 |
| bluekuja | amachu: so check if the package is already in, both using madison or Ubuntu/Debian PTS | 07:50 |
| Whoopie | albert23: it worked here. | 07:50 |
| amachu | madison is ok | 07:50 |
| geser | hendrixski: there is also rmadison (remote madison) in devscripts (gutsy) with which you can also check other releases and also Debian | 07:50 |
| amachu | Ubuntu/Debian PTS? | 07:50 |
| bluekuja | amachu: packaging tracking system | 07:51 |
| bluekuja | amachu: so packages.u.c | 07:51 |
| bluekuja | or packages.d.o | 07:51 |
| amachu | ok | 07:51 |
| geser | pts is pacakges.qa.d.o | 07:51 |
| geser | http://packages.qa.debian.org | 07:52 |
| pkern | deitarion: 1G? I expect it to grow as you install dev packages. 256M minimal I guess. | 07:52 |
| bluekuja | geser: yeah but generally packages.d.o | 07:52 |
| amachu | bluekuja: then | 07:52 |
| pkern | deitarion: Install debootstrap, that's in Gentoo. | 07:52 |
| amachu | i have make a ubuntu package right? | 07:52 |
| bluekuja | amachu: then you should apply what you've learnt on all the guides you told me before | 07:52 |
| pkern | deitarion: Or maybe fetch it from archive.ubuntu.com, because gutsy scripts are included. | 07:52 |
| bluekuja | amachu: and if you find something not clear, you ask me | 07:52 |
| deitarion | pkern: Sounds like I'll just do that then. My root drive (as opposed to my media drive) has around 340GiB free at the moment. | 07:52 |
| bluekuja | amachu: we will try to improve the package step by step | 07:53 |
| amachu | yes | 07:53 |
| amachu | sure | 07:53 |
| bluekuja | amachu: but It would be nice to see what you can/cant do atm | 07:53 |
