pittitkamppeter: that's bad advice, I think09:55
tkamppeterIt does not remove the actual init script, but only the links in the /etc/rc.... directories. This causes new links to be added by the part of the .postinst script which gets inserted at #DEBHELPER#09:56
pittitkamppeter: well, I'm open for other opinions, but IMHO the way /var/lib/dpkg/info/dbus.postinst does it is better09:56
pittitkamppeter: I know09:56
tkamppeterI will look, but what I will change is checking for the package version instead of checking for presence of a file to decide whether to do something. On a system where the user has manually changed the boot configuration, the fix would not get applied otherwise.09:58

stgraberseb128: well, I have some scripts where I would prefer to have the text prompt instead of the gtk one + I would need to check but I'm pretty sure that some times the ssh keyring was kept open even without the "Automatically unlock" thing checked11:46
seb128stgraber: that would be a bug11:47
tkamppeterStevenK. is you rebuild simply to get new binary packages so that they link with a new ABI of the netsnmp library? Or are there any changes except debian/changelog?11:47
tkamppeterpitti, OK.11:47
StevenKtkamppeter: No changes aside from debian/changelog11:47
StevenKtkamppeter: It's to link against libsnmp15 rather than libsnmp1011:48
stgraberseb128: I just reproduced it, I opened my irssi terminal (which connects to my server using SSH), I had the prompt for my key, entered it without checking the unlock thing11:49
stgraberseb128: then closed the window and open it again11:49
tkamppeterpitti, I have one doubt with Ghostscript. I want to package it as upstream made a patch to solve the problem of encrypted PDFs not printing out of Adobe Reader 8.11:49
stgraberseb128: it didn't ask for the key11:49
tkamppeterThis is no problem, but on Saturday there was a discussion on removing the transitional package gs-common from ghostscript.11:50
tkamppeterStevenK, I think you can go ahead, such a rebuild does not need to be registered in the Debian SVN. I assume that you simply add an entry in debian/changelog and then upload the source package to the build server which has libsnmp15 installed and so binaries using libsnmp15 will get generated?11:51
StevenKtkamppeter: Right11:52
pochustgraber: I can confirm that it remembers it until I end the session11:52
tkamppeterStevenK, then it's OK, go ahead.11:52
tkamppeterpitti,11:52
seb128stgraber: can you open a bug with the details to trigger the bug (without using irssi if possible ;-)11:54
tkamppeterpitti, they tell gs-common is not needed, as ghostscript updates/replaces gs-esp and gs-gpl, but I think if on a system with the old gs-... Ghostscript gs-common is installed, and the new ghostscript has no gs-common transitional package, the old gs-common will stay and conflict with ghostscript. as ghostscript contains the files of the former gs-common.11:54
stgraberseb128: sure11:56
StevenKtkamppeter: Uploaded, thanks!11:56
pittitkamppeter: not unless the newer ghostscript Conflicts:/Replaces: gs-common11:56
pittitkamppeter: (which it should); then upgrades will work without a transitional pacakge11:57
pochustgraber: let me know the number and I'll confirm it ;)11:57
tkamppeterpitti, ghostscript Replaces, Conflicts, and Provides gs-common (<< 8.60).11:59
tkamppeterpitti, for which case are the transitionals needed then?11:59
pitti gs-common | 8.61.dfsg.1~svn8187-0ubuntu3 | gutsy/universe | all11:59
pittitkamppeter: it should replace/conflict to << 8.61.dfsg.112:00
pittithen it will work12:00
pittitkamppeter: you only need a transitional package if you actually want to keep the original name; that's not necessary for libraries, or -common packages which users usually don't want to install directly12:00
tkamppeterYes, I understand. The transitional allows the user to do "apt-get install gs-esp" and he gets ghostscript.12:01
tkamppeterpitti, thanks, I will update ghostscript appropriately.12:02
persiatkamppeter: It also allows packages to continue to depend on the old name for a bit, to soften the upgrade transition (doesn't work for libraries, where the ABI changed anyway)12:02
pittitkamppeter: so Debian dropped the transitional package in an earlier version?12:03
pittitkamppeter: we need to keep that change until after hardy then, then we can drop it12:03
tkamppeterpitti, I do not know what Debian did.12:04

cjwatsonin the modern Launchpad display, it just shows up as DONE (and you might be a little confused for a short while, but at least you know it exists somewhere)12:45
cjwatsonin old-Launchpad and dak, the corresponding state meant that the package was invisible and you had no idea what was going on12:45

cjwatsonit looked to me as if Ian's fix was a bigger hammer and perhaps less likely to result in the bug coming back13:24
lamontdoko: gcc-3.4 needs an upload to shut up MoM then13:24
cjwatsonbut also potentially less correct; hard to say13:24

lamonthttp://merges.ubuntu.com/main.html  3.4.6-6ubuntu2 3.4.6ds1-6 3.4.6-413:25
lamontdoko: but MoM won't leave us alone until the hardy version is higher than debian13:26
cjwatsonI think such cases are OK to ignore in MoM13:26
dokolamont: just ignore MoM on these two cases13:26
lamontcjwatson: cool13:26
cjwatsondoko: you could add a blacklist feature to MoM, if there isn't one already, maybe?13:26
* lamont doesn't like to bitchslap MoM. :0)13:26
StevenKMoM already blacklists certain packages, I thought13:27
tjaaltonsladen: hmm, so you had some ATI bug you reported or..?13:27
lamontdoko: also, I finally gave in and turned on unaligned on the buildds... so what do we need to do about java?13:27
dokocjwatson: yes, maybe it's worth that13:27
cjwatsonStevenK: it's entirely possible it just needs stuff added to a list, yes13:28

Lurepitti: yes15:50
pittiLure: I just spent some time reading http://bugs.kde.org/12569615:50
pittiLure: in short, digikam does not find libgphoto plugins because kdelibs has its own nonstandard libtdl15:50
pittiLure: Debian has a normal libgphoto, and digikam depends on libgphoto2-dev15:51
Lurepitti: I think that should be fixed in hardy - last merge of kdelibs got proper fix from debian15:51
pittiso that it gets the .la files15:51
pittiLure: oh, great; it uses the system libtdl now?15:51
pittiLure: I would like to drop the libgphoto Ubuntu delta for the .la files, and also the digikam delta15:52
Lurepitti: did not check the actual kdelibs, but the comment is very clear that it fixes need for .la files15:52
pittiLure: awesome15:52
pittiLure: so we can get rid of both deltas15:52
Lurepitti: I paln to merge digikam and recent digikam in debian already droped -dev depends15:52

pittiLure: absolutely, if you tested it15:55
pittiwell, since we always test our uploads anyway, that doesn't add any constraint, right? :)15:56

stgraberI'm doing the iTalc integration for Edubuntu/LTSP and trying to move to clean way to logout/shutdown/reboot for the different desktops, KDE was easy with DCOP, now I'm trying to find an equivalent for gnome17:21
stgraberwhat I need to do is to have a scriptable way to close the session and trigger the shutdown/reboot action of gdm17:22
stgraberI tried with gdm-signal without much success and "gnome-session-save --kill" just shows the logout box instead of directly triggering a direct logout17:22
stgraberoh, I just noticed the --silent for gnome-session-save, so this one is good17:23
stgraberbut I still need to find a way to shutdown/reboot :)17:25
seb128stgraber: gnome-keyring upstream argue that storing the passphrase is the purpose of an ssh-agent so that's not a bug, they have a point there ;-)17:27
stgraberseb128: yes, but maybe I don't want to use the agent and still enter my key instead of the password :)17:28
stgraberseb128: currently I have no way to just enter my key and not see it stored :)17:28
seb128stgraber: right, which is a different issue of the one you described17:28
seb128well, don't use an agent if you don't want it stored17:28
seb128which is wishlist for "make the agent being optional"17:29
stgraberthat's a regression (vs standard SSH without any external agent) :)17:29
seb128stgraber: right, and that will be fixed before hardy17:30
stgrabermy current problem is that I want the keyring part of the daemon but not the SSH one and I have no way to fix that as I can't simply kill it + reload with the -c thing (the env variables would point to a no longer existing process ID)17:31
seb128stgraber: agreed, there should be a gconf key or something to set for people who don't want the ssh agent17:32
seb128stgraber: about the reboot option, gdm-signal should do that, if it doesn't work it should be fixed17:32
seb128stgraber: or maybe you can speak to gnome-power-manager over dbus like for suspend and hibernate17:33
pochuseb128: but if the ssh agent will store it anyway, what's the point of the 'Remember me' check box?17:34
stgraberpochu: I think it'll remember not only until the session close, but even after you logout17:34
pochustgraber: oh, that makes sense.17:35
seb128pochu: it stores it in the keyring17:36
seb128pochu: so it's available for next sessions17:36
stgraberseb128: ok, just gave gdm-signal a try on Hardy and it doesn't work either, so it's not working on Feisty/Gutsy/Hardy :) I will file a bug17:36
stgraberseb128: but I suspect a bug in gdm itself for this one as stracing the gdm-signal shows that it correctly sent the actions (SET_LOGOUT_ACTION REBOOT) and received an OK from the gdm server ...17:38
seb128stgraber: well, that's the logout action, you need to log out then17:38
stgraberoh, right :)17:39
stgraberIt was easier to do with KDE :) (just send a DCOP signal and that's it)17:40
seb128stgraber: with the new gdm (might not land in hardy) that will likely be a signal to send over dbus17:41
