rick_h_Kmos: do you know how that's pulled from then in general packages?00:01
RAOFrick_h_: They're pulled from changelogs.ubuntu.com00:02
rick_h_so if I were to submit a LP bug for the PPAs what would I be saying it should be reading/doing that is getting done with main packages?00:02
rick_h_RAOF: ok, and hten changelogs.ub... is pulling the changelogs from the package?00:02
RAOFI'm not sure; that'd be internal launchpad/soyuz craziness, probably.00:03
RAOFI would imagine that the buildprocess pushes changelogs to c.u.c, rather than c.u.c trying to pull new changelogs periodically.00:03
rick_h_ic00:04
Ubulette_c.u.c is only updated twice a day00:04
RAOFHowever, that is uninformed speculation.  that's just how I'd (naievely) do it.00:04
rick_h_yea, just seems strange that it doesn't just use the packages changelog00:04

LordKowhow does the ubuntu livecd package the filesystem (such as /etc /usr, etc)?00:29
LordKowfor instance is it put into an archive or is it directly copied to the cd?00:29

UbuletteLordKow, why don't just grab and extract the deb ?00:32
LordKowgood idea :p00:32
LordKowthe fonts in qt apps right now are almost unreadable as of the latest fontconfig update (which i am trying to confirm as the cause of the font probs)00:34
crimsunLordKow: see casper.00:34
LordKowim guessing the specific package will be fontconfig-config00:35

FujitsuI have 2450 to my name.03:40
pwnguinwell, if we're going to legislate good QA behavior, can we also institute a "don't triage driver bugs if you dont have the hardware" policy?03:40

HobbseeStevenK: yeah, *odd* that.03:41
HobbseeStevenK: and how many bugs were related to ubuntu?03:41
FujitsuStevenK: Haha.03:41
HobbseeStevenK: got to remember that getdeb uses LP as well03:41
Hobbseeso he can have crack-filled bugs there that will increase his count.03:41
FujitsuEven better.03:41
StevenKI don't want to read through every page, but there is only one GetDeb bug on the first page03:42
Hobbseeyou can search for ubuntu bugs03:42
* Hobbsee has a look03:42
* Fujitsu notes that the Invalid/Won't Fix metric isn't particularly valid, as he might have been doing valid triage.03:42
HobbseeStevenK: was the total count for all states, including closed?03:42
HobbseeFujitsu: yeah, but the chance of that is...03:42
StevenKHobbsee: Yes, the >1,000 number was every state03:43
FujitsuHobbsee: True, but I was looking at counts from others, and found a quite high proportion of each was negatively closed.03:43
HobbseeFujitsu: oh, indeed.  but i'd say most of kmos' were closed due to a) kmos incompetence b) kmos was wrong c) kmos closed teh bug at random03:44
FujitsuRight.03:44
Hobbseeonly 245 total, reported by kmos.03:44
Fujitsu... then what the heck were the rest he ate!?03:44

Hobbseetherefore, 857, assuming LP's search is not screwed.03:45
FujitsuBye TheMuso.03:45
FujitsuHobbsee: And what are the chances of it not being screwed? I'm thinking of searches for bugs within distroseries, for example.03:46
FujitsuThey give completely bogus results, most of the time.03:46
chillywillyI have a buddy who replaced some hardware for an ubuntu install but now he can't get the right sata driver loaded (data_via) it still loads the old one sata_sis (he even supposedly rebuilt the initrd image)...03:47
chillywillysata_via03:47
HobbseeFujitsu: indeed, it would count bugs affecting multiple packages, multiple times, as well as multiple distroseries bugs03:47
HobbseeFujitsu: however, seeing as it does it for everyone03:47
FujitsuThat's not the sort of bogusness I was talking about, but right.03:47
Hobbseei haven't seen launchpad search *really* screw up for a while03:48
FujitsuThat's because you don't do SRUs or security things.03:48
Hobbseeno, tha'ts not what i meant03:48
Hobbseeit appears to be fixed now03:50
HobbseeFujitsu: i was searching for the busybox issues, iirc, so used a string that's common.03:50
Hobbseei got a whole heap of results that did not contain the words of the search string.03:50
Hobbseeonly a few of them, separately.03:50
FujitsuHaha.03:50
Hobbseelike, only a few of the words, not all of them.03:51
FujitsuIf you want to search by textual content, you're much better off using Google.03:51
Hobbsees/by textual content//03:52
FujitsuGoogle doens't handle much of the meta-data well.03:52
imbrandonHobbsee: too if you use the UW search and then click "launchpad" in the results at the top, it limits it to LP only results03:54
Hobbseehmmm...03:54
imbrandonOR just search for "more:launchpad <term>" like "more:launchpad busybox" on search.uw.c or in the Firefox add-in03:57
pwnguinive got a couple ignorant questions about program memory usage =/03:57
pwnguinwhich is the best way to measure a program's memory usage in GNOME?03:57
pwnguinthere's Resident memory, and "Memory"03:58
pwnguin(and also x server memory, which firefox uses considerable amounts of)03:58
imbrandonHobbsee: and if you would find it usefull it would only take me meer minutes to whip one up that only searches bugs.launchpad.net by default without the need for extra strings03:59
imbrandonjust lemme know'03:59

HobbseeLaserJock: the idea is that you fix / close more than you report.04:08

LaserJockHobbsee: well, I've commented on 34404:08

Hobbseeas in, that's what he's working on at the moment04:25
Hobbseedoesn't take enough care with his work, to see if it's right or wrong04:25
Hobbseeit's kind of like a monkey has glanced at the changelog, seen one bug is fixed in debian, so we can sync the entire thing.04:26
Hobbseeor the version is the same in debian, so we can throw out ubuntu changes.04:26
Hobbseeit's just utter stupidity like that, which he continues to do, even though he's told over and over again why things don't work that way04:26

RAOFBut surely you'd file a removal request on the source package you want to remove, right?  If that's not in ubuntu...04:29

LaserJocknixternal: they have a lot of pigs down there, I would think pork ribs would be popular ;-)05:17
imbrandonbeef ribs ftw05:18
nixternaldunno about that, but their pork tacos rock05:18
LaserJockimbrandon: yeah, I don't like pork05:18
nixternalya, I am not the biggest pork fan05:18

imbrandonthe only thing i rember bout mexico was boystown :)05:18
nixternalwasn't that some wrestler back in the day?05:18
ScottKnixternal: Sorry I pissed you off (re your mail to -devel-discuss)05:18
LaserJockand on the way home to the hotel we drove past the landfill/river and that's where all the pigs were05:19
nixternalScottK: it only lasted a couple of hours and then it made sense after I started thinking about it :)05:19
ScottKnixternal: Cool.  Thinking is something I'm in favor of.05:19
nixternalsee, when I go to Mexico I usually go to Cabo San Lucas (every October) and every now and then I go to Jalisco to visit a friend of mine05:20
nixternalin Jalisco it is nothing but agave farms05:20
imbrandonnewva lorado aka boyztown :)05:20
imbrandonnixternal: ^05:21
nixternalnever heard of it, and will never go there05:21
imbrandon:)05:21
nixternalI say the next UDS be in Cabo San Lucas...especially the october one...I would love to take a sponsorship to that one :) Free Sammy Hagar!05:21
nixternalMexican Meltdown is the 2nd weekend of October every year, schedule UDS around that time and all will be good05:22
nixternalpeople can stay out at my families house...it is definitely big enough to fit 20 people comfortably05:22
tritiumNice!  Tequila shots in Cabo Wabo!05:23
nixternalTequila shots of Cabo Wabo at the Cabo Wabo!05:23
nixternalmmmmm baby05:23
nixternalsome Anejo, some Reposado, and definitely some Los Complianos (I know I butchered it)05:24
tritiumI like the way you think, nixternal!05:24
nixternalhehe05:24
nixternalI have about 40 bottles left of Cabo Wabo right here in my house05:24
nixternalI make a killer Waborita05:24
tritiumThat's a stockpile!05:24
slangaseknixternal: why are the Ubuntu fans shrinking in Chicago?  left in the dryer too long?05:24
nixternalyup05:25
ScottKCold does shrink things05:25
nixternalpeople switching to other distros...Foresight, Gentoo (eww), Fedora is getting big, and so is PCLOS now05:25
nixternalhahahaha ScottK05:25
nixternalGO BEARS!05:25
nixternalgod they suck05:25
* tritium only flys _through_ Chicago, but never stops05:26
slangasekwait, people are switching from Ubuntu /to/ Gentoo?05:26
nixternalon Sunday the Redskins play one down with 10 defensive players, tonight they play 12...they forgot hwo to play05:26
slangasekwhat's... wrong with them? :)05:26
tritiumBut I always grab a sandwich at PotBelly's in Midway airport05:26
nixternalslangasek: ya, I don't get it05:26
* Hobbsee goes off to drown05:26
nixternalmost of the Gentoo switching is going on at the University of Illinois at Chicago05:26
nxvli have a crashed merge05:27
* tritium saves Hobbsee with her long pointy stick05:27
slangaseknever heard of Foresight Linux before.  No mention of package management, smells like a fad to me05:27
nixternalUIC is somewhat pissed at Ubuntu right now (sabdfl & jono) for not doing a talk at 2 consecutive flourish events...I can't put the fires out there and I have tried05:27
nxvlthe old changes are missing (on the changelog)05:27
nxvlwhich are the procedures for this cases?05:27
nixternalslangasek: Foresight has Conary, which is a pretty sweet pkg mgr05:27
imbrandonits all python based from what soeone told me05:28
bddebianForeskin?05:28
nixternalthat it is05:28
slangasek"With dependencies defined at the file level, Conary's built-in dependency resolution brings in only the components needed from other packages instead of entire packages."05:28
nixternalbddebian: hehe, that is what I call it, and still call it that every now and then...and I am helping develop their KDE side05:28
slangasekyeah, braindead, it'll kill itself off soon enough, moving along05:28
tritiumConary is just a front-end to forceps05:29
imbrandonslangasek: wow really? that sounds ignorant05:29
imbrandonexcept maybe in embeded05:29
nxvlslangasek: yes, extremadura!05:29
nixternalya, I doubt conary will kill itself off anytime soon...rPath has a bunch of clients using it now in cohoots with their rBuilder service05:29
slangasekimbrandon: no, even then it's a ridiculous amount of overhead to declare per-file dependencies for everything you need instead of just dividing your packages up right...05:30
nixternalslangasek: and lets not forget that you can install Foresight in less than 4 minutes :)05:30
=== RAOF_ is now known as RAOF
nxvlimbrandon: i have a broken merge, in the changelos, all the ubuntu* entrys are missing, which are the procedures on this case (i'm using grab-merge script)05:30
nixternalhaha, I leave those for other people to do :p05:31
imbrandonnxvl: fix the changelog manualy :)05:32
nxvlusing the last ubuntu one, and adding the debian changeS?05:33
slangaseknxvl: that's probably easiest, yes05:34
RAOFnxvl: That probably works.  You might also be interested in some graphical merging utility such as meld (gtk) or kdiff (I think?, QT)05:34

dholbachNICE06:19
nxvldholbach: but i don't find the criteria used to aprove or deny a LoCo06:19
dholbachhang on06:19
nxvldholbach: can you tell me about the process?06:19
dholbachhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoGettingApproved06:20
dholbachit's linked from https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommunityCouncilAgenda06:20
nxvldholbach: i have read it already, but i have heard that we need a LoCo team supporting us?06:21
dholbachnxvl: no - it's good if some members of the team show up at the CC meeting06:22
dholbachso you can explain about what the team has been doing, etc06:23
nxvlok ok06:23
dholbachif there's people from a different loco team who can say something good about the peruvian loco, that's nice but not a "must"06:23
nxvlother thing i haven't clear is what are the thing a LoCo team must did to become oficial?06:25
nxvlwe are working on marketing06:25
nxvlmakings some talks, having stands on som others06:25
dholbachbest to look at other applications06:25
dholbachto get a feeling for what teams did that have done well06:26
nxvland giving support on install fest06:26
nxvlis that what you expect from a LoCo? or more developing or contribuiting work?06:26
ScottKnxvl: You should also ping Adri2000 about the package with the messed up changelong, so he can have a look at what went wrong.06:26
nxvldholbach: actualy, we are looking at some of them06:27
nxvlScottK: i use mom and there was fine, but i will ping her06:27
dholbachit's more important that your team is well organised, people know how to work together, have a clear agenda and got amazing things done without problems :)06:27
dholbach(in a nutshell)06:27
nxvldholbach: thnx, now i have it clear06:28
dholbachok good06:28
nxvldholbach: we have an internal discuss because someone says that we need thing you say we don't :D06:29
nxvldiscussion*06:29
dholbachbest to talk to people from other locos06:29
dholbachor people on the loco-contacts list06:29
ScottKnxvl: That's what I generally do too if the DaD script has a problem.  Adri2000 is one of the DaD developers and so letting him know helps it not be messed up next time.06:30
nxvldholbach: yes, thats why i'm asking you, since you part of the ones who decide it :D06:31
nxvlwhy is it MOTU (and OS proyects) so fun06:34
nxvldholbach: as i understan MOTU fun is your fault06:34

LaserJocka switch would?07:21
imbrandona router would07:22
LaserJockI can't remember the diff07:22

LaserJockwell I can't ping it07:23
LaserJockand I'm pretty sure it's on07:23
LaserJockI'll have to investigate tomorrow07:23
LaserJockit's so hard to get network drops and IPs at work I think I'm gonna have to use a hub07:24
imbrandona hub wnt give you any more ips, you'd need a router07:25

LaserJockI have IPs I guess07:25
LaserJockjust not network drops07:26
imbrandonahh07:26
LaserJockalthough I do need to get a couple more IPs07:26
LaserJockthey took away all the IPs that weren't in use07:26

DarkMageZif a program wants the opengl headers. i should feed it libgl1-mesa-dev ? what should one add if that doesn't stop the configure from crying?08:25
imbrandonwhats configure crying about ?08:26
DarkMageZit wants the OpenGL headers apparently. but i already fed it libgl1-mesa-dev.08:27
imbrandoni've never used ogl headers in a package i've delt with, but i would find out exactly what file its looking for and verify that package provides it08:29
imbrandoniirc there are a few diffrent ogl -dev packages08:29
DarkMageZi tried reading the configure file to see what it was playing at. but it was fairly complex.08:30
imbrandone.g. if configure if looking for something via pkg-config or a certain .h etc and use apt-file or packages.u.c to find it08:30
imbrandonwhats the exact error where it breakes? can you pastebin it and a few lines before it also , maybe i can help you track it, i'm not a great ogl guy but i might stumble on somehing08:31
DarkMageZi'm rerunning the build under a clean pbuilder. i'll have that in a sec.08:32
imbrandon( unless someone that is more knoledgeable about ogl than me speaks up first hehe )08:32
imbrandonkk08:32
DarkMageZhttp://pastebin.ca/80811808:35
imbrandonone sec, sending an email then i'll peek08:36
DarkMageZi've uploaded the source package to http://mirror.randumb.org/darkmagez/lemuria/ if anyone wants to read the configure and translate it to engrish.08:36
imbrandonDarkMageZ: try adding libglu1-mesa-dev to the build depends08:45
imbrandon( just a guess )08:45
DarkMageZalready there :(08:45
imbrandonhrm, i'm honestly at a loss then, OpenGL has never been a strong point of mine, someone else in here ( or possibly #ubuntu-x ? dunno ) might be able to help08:46
AmaranthDarkMageZ: it's looking for glAccum09:31
DarkMageZwhere do i find that :s09:32
Amaranthtry libgl1-mesa-swx11-dev09:33
Amaranthyou can't install that on your system though09:33
Amaranthah, wait09:34
Amarantherr, no, i was right the first time09:35
Amaranthhehe09:35
Amaranthtoo many different names for the same thing09:35
DarkMageZhmm, but if i install that then the package i build won't install on my system  due to dependency problems right?09:37
Amaranthmesa-common-dev09:37
Amaranthtry that then09:37
Amaranthyeah, that should do it09:38
AmaranthGL crap is all over the place09:38
Amaranthmesa-common-dev has /usr/include/GL/gl.h which defines glAccum so if that doesn't work the project's build system is broken and you should patch around it09:39
DarkMageZmesa-common-dev is a dependency of libgl1-mesa-dev. guess it's a problem in the build system.09:39

ubotuDebian bug 454413 in libcairo2 "gecho crashes with the latest unstable libcairo2" [Important,Open] http://bugs.debian.org/45441315:23
Nafallowasn't that fixed in Ubuntu already?15:24
whiteit is a regression15:24
whiteand ubuntu uses the same patch15:24
Nafallosure, but wasn't the regression fixed?15:24
Nafalloah, right. I'm thinking of the wrong regression.15:25
bddebianHeya15:26
whitewell i suspect that the same problem exists in ubuntu15:26
Nafallohmm15:28
Nafallowe have had firefox rebuilt however...15:28
white?15:28
whiteNafallo: you mean it needed a rebuild against the new libcairo version?15:29
Nafalloa regression made firefox be rebuilt in -security after the cairo bug.15:29
Nafallowell, it's a possibilty to why I can't see the bug in current gutsy :-)15:29
whitebut wasn't the firefox regression totally unrelated and because of a sec fix in firefox?15:33
Nafalloyes. still got rebuilt against the new cairo.15:33
nionhi15:33
Nafallohi nion :-)15:33
nionNafallo: can you tell me more about the regression? i was the one who update cairo in debian and i really fail to see any problem with the patch15:34
whitenion: Nafallo and I are discussing the damn cairo problem and he suspects that a rebuild of firefox would make it dissapear15:34
Nafallonion: any information on how to reproduce the issue in cairo?15:34
Nafalloif it's just surfing around I can't reproduce it.15:34
nionwhite: yeah a rebuild of iceweasel will for sure solve this but i will see a reason to do it first :)15:35
nionNafallo: if you have a version that has not been rebuild go to debian.org/misc15:35
nionthis will crash iceweasel15:35

nionhmm strange15:43
nionif the reporter wouldnt say that downgrading solved his problem id really say this patch does not cause this :)15:44
nioni see no ABI breakage in the patch15:44
Nafallonion: rebuild it for the reporter and ask him to test that version?15:44
nionwhy this?15:44
nionor you mean iceweasel?15:44
Nafallonion: to see if rebuilding solves it :-). yes, the browser.15:45

Nafallonion: looking now15:48
NafalloRainCT: :-P15:48
nionNafallo: i mean what it bascially does is changing all malloc calls to the preprocessor function to fix the integer overflows, there should be no addresses involved that could change15:49
Nafallonion: agreed. if it didn't relied on buggy behaviour :-)15:51
RainCTomg, the kde-core package filled my "others" menu with crap :P15:52
nionmhm this thing is driving me nuts :)15:52
ScottKRainCT: IIRC (as in I didn't look it up to make sure): usr/local is all FHS calls for and by design subdirs are not in the path by default.15:52
RainCT(I guess that the reason that a 70% of the icons are missing is that  a KDE artwork package is missing, or?)15:52
RainCTScottK: but /usr/local/bin is. that's what I find strange..15:54
ScottKHmm.  Dunno then.  I don't ever install stuff that isn't packaged, so it doesn't come up for me (I'll roll my own if needed).15:54
RainCTI usually neither (most of what I've there are little scripts I created myself), but sometimes I try somewhat out (removing it later) and one of those times I noticed this..15:56

nxvl_workand on the changelog isn't the bug number so i can see the why16:39
ScottKOK.  dh_iconcache was an Ubuntu only thing.  dh_icons is in Debian.  It's a wishlist bug for Debian because their menu system doesn't need it.16:39

pschulz01what's the 'best/easiest' way of pulling in a new upstream release?23:48
norsettopschulz01: package it yourself23:48
pschulz01Ok.. yes.. but..23:48
norsettopschulz01: but?23:49
pschulz01norsetto: I have a new upstrean tar.gz.23:49
pschulz01norsetto: I have my exisitng diff.23:49
pschulz01norsetto: Do I just.. rename new tar to 'orig.tar.gz', untar, apply my diff, and the dpkg-buildpackage?23:50
norsettopschulz01: it all depends whats new23:50
norsettopschulz01: is there any change in copyright/license?23:51
pschulz01norsetto: new upstream release :-)23:51
norsettopschulz01: is there a change which need to modify configure/make options?23:51
pschulz01Let's say there isnt.23:51
norsettopschulz01: is there a change which need new/modified maintainer scripts?23:51
pschulz01No23:51
norsettopschulz01: new things to be installed? Old things to be removed?23:52
pschulz01(not at this stage.. I might make soem changes shortly)23:52
pschulz01norsetto: These are all changes in the 'debian' directory.. which I will be happy to modify.. once I've moved from 3.0.0 to 3.0.123:53
pschulz01Then I can go nuts with 3.0.1-1 (etc.)23:54
norsettopschulz01: perhaps we need to update few things, like .desktop file, standard version, compatibility level, menu23:54
pschulz01norsetto: What the? No. Command line app.. (perl)23:54
norsettopschulz01: well, if its just a new tarball and don't need anything, just package it. The current procedure is to provide an interdiff but apparently we are changing it, so I'm not sure if that is still advisable23:56
norsettopschulz01: you just need to change the changelog obviously23:57
norsettopschulz01: is this an ubuntu package or a debian one?23:57
pschulz01norsetto: neither at this stage... I'm building debs.23:58
norsettopschulz01: wait a second, you mean is a completely new package?23:58
pschulz01norsetto: I'm building on my gutsy, and will submit to Ubuntu at some stage.23:58
