| mok0_ | jscinoz: the .o file is the compiled files, they need to be linked to generate the program | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| LaserJock | it's an object file | 00:00 |
| jscinoz | and these are not included with libjpeg62-dev? | 00:00 |
| LaserJock | no | 00:01 |
| LaserJock | .o files get linked to create the program | 00:01 |
| mok0_ | jscinoz: well, they are assembled into a library | 00:01 |
| LaserJock | .so are what would be shipped in a library | 00:01 |
| jscinoz | alright, so when someone says " static copy of system library: please change the upstream Makefile to link against Ubuntu’s libjpeg62 instead of using the static copy inside the sources" what do i need to change the make file to reference? the headers? the actual source or what? | 00:02 |
| mok0_ | jscinoz: the makefile, in principle | 00:02 |
| jscinoz | >_< | 00:03 |
| jscinoz | ok. | 00:03 |
| jscinoz | so. | 00:03 |
| LaserJock | you want it to build against the headers I believe | 00:03 |
| mok0_ | jscinoz: it looks like the program gets linked to the set of .o's from the jpeg subdir | 00:03 |
| jscinoz | included with the upstream package is libjpeg source, ie .h and .c, it builds these into a bunch of .o it needs to compile, now the libjpeg62-dev package contains no .c, and only a few headers compared to those in the upstream | 00:04 |
| mok0_ | jscinoz: yes, and those headers are being included by other parts of the source | 00:04 |
| jscinoz | so... in the makefile, i've commented out where it compiles libjpeg from the source in the .c files. | 00:05 |
| mok0_ | jscinoz: you need to define to the compiler where to find those headers (if not in the subdir), and also where to find the library | 00:05 |
| jscinoz | /usr/lib/libjpeg.so.62 yes? | 00:05 |
| mok0_ | the first is usually with a -I switch, and the latter with a -ljpeg switch to the linker | 00:06 |
| mok0_ | jscinoz: yes, that's the one that replaces the .o files | 00:06 |
| jscinoz | oh | 00:06 |
| mok0_ | jscinoz: i.e. gcc -I/usr/include program.c -ljpeg -o program | 00:07 |
| jscinoz | so instead of the multitude of .o files on line 1000-1033, i just need the one .so? | 00:07 |
| mok0_ | jscinoz: yup | 00:07 |
| jscinoz | ugh | 00:07 |
| jscinoz | wish i found that out earlier. | 00:07 |
| jscinoz | the -ljpeg is all i need? | 00:08 |
| jscinoz | i dont need it to be -l/usr/lib/libjpeg.so.62? | 00:08 |
| mok0_ | jscinoz: no | 00:08 |
| mok0_ | jscinoz: -ljpeg | 00:08 |
| jscinoz | thank you | 00:08 |
| mok0_ | by default, the linker knows to look for libraries in /usr/lib | 00:08 |
| mok0_ | it knows their names always start with 'lib' and end in '.so' | 00:09 |
| mok0_ | so you only need to specify the "variable" bit = jpeg | 00:09 |
| ryanakca | hmm... what does this do "common-binary-predeb-arch" ? | 00:10 |
| ryanakca | and "common-binary-predeb-indep::" ? | 00:10 |
| jscinoz | mok0_, with -ljpeg can lines 1000-1033 be removed/commented out? or do they need to be changed somewhat | 00:14 |
| * mok0_ looks | 00:14 | |
| jscinoz | and also line 153, and lines 1553-1554 | 00:15 |
| mok0_ | jscinoz: it's not that simple | 00:16 |
| jscinoz | >_< | 00:17 |
| mok0_ | jscinoz: you need to put it in the LDFLAGS variable, and in fact it looks as if you can do that when calling make | 00:18 |
| mok0_ | jscinoz: make "LDFLAGS=-ljpeg" | 00:18 |
| jscinoz | make[2]: *** No rule to make target `build/release-linux-i386/client/jcapimin.o', needed by `build/release-linux-i386/ioUrbanTerror.i386'. Stop | 00:19 |
| jscinoz | as i said, should line 1k-1033 be commented out? | 00:19 |
| mok0_ | jscinoz: yes that has to go | 00:19 |
| mok0_ | jscinoz: but this makefile is full of ifeq... endif sections so be sure to fix it the right place | 00:20 |
| jscinoz | new output: http://pastebin.ubuntu-nl.org/52947/ | 00:20 |
| mok0_ | jscinoz: looks like it's missing -lGL | 00:21 |
| jscinoz | hmm | 00:22 |
| jscinoz | because it didnt have that output before i removed its own jpeg stuff.. | 00:22 |
| jscinoz | same output with -lGL aswell >_< | 00:22 |
| mok0_ | Hmm | 00:22 |
| mok0_ | jscinoz: do you have someone where you live that knows about programming? | 00:23 |
| jscinoz | no. | 00:23 |
| jscinoz | hmm | 00:23 |
| mok0_ | jscinoz: Like I said earlier, what you are trying to accomplish is not easy | 00:23 |
| jscinoz | if i have it still compile its own libjpeg, but remove the lines referncing the *.o's, it gives this same output | 00:23 |
| jscinoz | so what i think is that -ljpeg isnt linking it properly or something | 00:24 |
| jscinoz | aye, same output with or without "LDFLAGS=-ljpeg" | 00:24 |
| mok0_ | jscinoz: it could be that it's a modified libjpeg | 00:24 |
| jscinoz | gah | 00:24 |
| mok0_ | jscinoz: I suggest you tell the motu that you looked into the problem with help on IRC and that it does not seem to be possible to use Ubuntu's libjpeg as a replacement | 00:25 |
| jscinoz | alright thanks | 00:25 |
| mok0_ | jscinoz: you can say you got indefined references and urbanterror | 00:26 |
| mok0_ | s version seems to be modified | 00:26 |
| jscinoz | alright | 00:27 |
| LaserJock | hi Hobbsee and minghua | 00:32 |
| Hobbsee | heya LaserJock | 00:33 |
| minghua | Good evening LaserJock. | 00:33 |
| jscinoz | hmm whats a way to count the amount of lines output by grep/cat | 00:35 |
| StevenK | grep -c | 00:35 |
| StevenK | wc -l < file | 00:36 |
| StevenK | Either works fine | 00:36 |
| ryanakca | should I write a patch to fix two dozen lines of this? "dpkg-source: warning: file qyoto/csharp/qyoto/core/QObjectExtras.cs has no final newline (either original or modified version)" ? | 00:36 |
| jscinoz | thanks | 00:36 |
| ryanakca | s/two/a/ | 00:37 |
| StevenK | pochu: I haven't, it's a little complicated. | 00:38 |
| ryanakca | hmmm. Ok, so I've got qyoto merged into kdebindings, I'm just wondering how to generate the dsc since I'm getting these errors http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/52952/ when I run debuild -S -sa -kE95EDDC9 | 00:54 |
| cyberix | I'm looking after first advocate for my package Malbolge. I've fixed all broblems that have been brought up. http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?package=malbolge | 00:59 |
| LaserJock | ryanakca: it looks like it's from source files and if it doesn't cause a bug I certainly wouldn't worry about it. | 01:03 |
| ryanakca | LaserJock: was that to the patch question or how to generate the dsc question? | 01:03 |
| LaserJock | patch question | 01:04 |
| ryanakca | okies, thanks :) | 01:04 |
| LaserJock | ryanakca: hmm, it kinda looks to me like there's a lot of stuff going on in the .diff.gz there | 01:05 |
| ryanakca | LaserJock: yes, well, I copied all of the qyoto sources into kdebindings-3.5.8 | 01:06 |
| minghua | ryanakca: The building error question -- the real problem are the two "cannot represent change" errors. | 01:06 |
| LaserJock | oh, that's going to be a bit difficult | 01:06 |
| LaserJock | right, what minghua said | 01:06 |
| LaserJock | you're trying to add source when packaging is not meant for that | 01:07 |
| ryanakca | yes... then what would be the appropriate way? | 01:07 |
| * ryanakca was asked to merge qyoto into kdebindings... generate a new .orig.tar.gz ? | 01:07 | |
| LaserJock | ryanakca: I guess so | 01:09 |
| LaserJock | is qyoto distributed separately? | 01:09 |
| pochu | StevenK: Alright. Would be nice though if possible. | 01:09 |
| ryanakca | LaserJock: okies. take out the debian dir? | 01:09 |
| LaserJock | ryanakca: hmm? | 01:09 |
| ryanakca | LaserJock: yes, but kdebindings is just an assortment of libraries which are distributed seperately | 01:09 |
| ryanakca | take out the debian/ dir when making the .orig.tar.gz ? | 01:10 |
| LaserJock | how is it distributed? | 01:10 |
| LaserJock | ryanakca: first we need to figure out how you get the kdebindings .orig.tar.gz | 01:10 |
| ryanakca | how are they distributed? umm... part comes from http://www.kde.org/download , another comes from the xparts website, some from qyoto.org, kjsembed... umm.. unsure how it was all pieced together originially | 01:11 |
| * ryanakca reads the changelog | 01:11 | |
| LaserJock | ryanakca: are you working on KDE3? | 01:12 |
| ryanakca | yes | 01:12 |
| LaserJock | k, I'm grabbing the source | 01:12 |
| ryanakca | I was originally supposed to merge the KDE3 package with the KDE4 package from debian, and then merge in qyoto into that merged thing, but then it was decided to just merge qyoto into kdebindings kde3 since the debian kde4 packaging wasn't advanced enough | 01:13 |
| ryanakca | LaserJock: step by step, what I did was copy the qyoto source dir to kdebindings-3.5.8/qyoto, merge kdebindings-3.5.8/qyoto/debian/* with kdebindings-3.5.8/debian/*, then remove kdebindings-3.5.8/qyoto/debian | 01:16 |
| LaserJock | right, and I think that's wrong | 01:16 |
| * ryanakca tars up kdebindings-3.5.8/debian and puts it on his webserver | 01:17 | |
| ryanakca | hmmm. | 01:17 |
| LaserJock | the problem is that packaging isn't meant to add source to | 01:17 |
| LaserJock | so your .diff.gz can't represent binary files | 01:17 |
| LaserJock | and really, you don't want to do that | 01:18 |
| bddebian | Heya gang | 01:18 |
| LaserJock | you want to add qyoto to kdebindings | 01:18 |
| * ryanakca nods | 01:18 | |
| ryanakca | LaserJock: http://blog.ryanak.ca/kdebindings-3.5.8.debian.tar.gz | 01:18 |
| ryanakca | hey bddebian | 01:19 |
| LaserJock | so kdebindings is distributed upstream as a tarball | 01:19 |
| ryanakca | LaserJock: ok, to add qyoto, I'd have to generate a new orig.tar.gz? | 01:19 |
| bddebian | Hello ryanakca | 01:19 |
| ryanakca | hmmm | 01:19 |
| ryanakca | and in that new .orig.tar.gz, I would have to remove debian/, then readd it, debuild, etc ? | 01:20 |
| LaserJock | well | 01:20 |
| LaserJock | hmm | 01:20 |
| LaserJock | this is a bit funky | 01:20 |
| * ryanakca nods | 01:21 | |
| LaserJock | you want to take the kdebindings upstream tarball | 01:21 |
| LaserJock | unpack it, add your qyoto source, and retar it | 01:21 |
| ryanakca | ok. | 01:21 |
| LaserJock | but that means you're creating a new .orig.tar.gz for the same version of kdebindings | 01:21 |
| ryanakca | can I do that to the current .orig.tar.gz? | 01:21 |
| LaserJock | which is not great | 01:22 |
| ryanakca | hmm... Riddell is probably asleep atm... | 01:22 |
| LaserJock | ryanakca: I honestly don't know why you're not adding this as a separate package | 01:22 |
| ryanakca | LaserJock: it currently is a seperate package... | 01:23 |
| LaserJock | ah .... | 01:23 |
| ryanakca | LaserJock: *gets the logs from this afternoon describing what he has to do*, just a sec. | 01:23 |
| ryanakca | LaserJock: http://blog.ryanak.ca/kubuntu-devel.log | 01:25 |
| ScottK | LaserJock: Do you have time to do some source backports for me (I need a core-dev to upload)? | 01:28 |
| LaserJock | ryanakca: well, honestly, you've got to talk to Riddell about that. That looks really odd/suspicious to me | 01:29 |
| LaserJock | ScottK: what do you need | 01:29 |
| LaserJock | ? | 01:29 |

| mcisbackuk | Hi all, I'd like to get involved in packaging, but a lot of the wiki's are confusing | 01:32 |
| superm1 | RAOF, i didn't want to change things with the way it worked (it build-depends fine with it in there) | 01:33 |
| RAOF | superm1: Quite true. It doesn't care whether or not you've got a firefox-dev build-dep or not :) | 01:33 |
| mcisbackuk | Can anyone help me get started please? | 01:34 |
| ryanakca | mcisbackuk: the Ubuntu Packaging Guide is a good starting place... | 01:34 |
| RAOF | mcisbackuk: What would you actually like to do? | 01:34 |
| RAOF | (Packaging is a broad field ;)) | 01:34 |
| superm1 | RAOF, :) | 01:34 |
| ryanakca | mcisbackuk: http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/packagingguide/C/index.html | 01:34 |
| mcisbackuk | i've had a look at the guide, but it's too broad, as you say, and I'll be honest I'm not that good on linux, but know pc's well (notdeveloper level) and would love to help out, maybe get rid of some on the wishlist to help you guys out :) | 01:35 |
| LaserJock | !packagingguide > ryanakca | 01:36 |
| RAOF | superm1: Did you try to xul-1.9ify it at all? | 01:36 |
| ryanakca | LaserJock: oh? hmm... *checks the new link* | 01:36 |
| superm1 | RAOF, i did not. | 01:36 |
| ScottK | LaserJock: What do you think, are you up for it? | 01:36 |
| superm1 | RAOF, i was more looking to get the merge done (given the time frame for the impending freeze) | 01:36 |
| ryanakca | LaserJock: heh, interesting. | 01:37 |
| ryanakca | mcisbackuk: ignore me :) | 01:37 |
| mcisbackuk | i havent used irc before how do i reply lol sorry i must sound really stupid now | 01:37 |
| RAOF | superm1: Yeah, fair enough. I'll add that to my moderately large "before FF todo" list. | 01:37 |
| superm1 | RAOF, yeah i'm looking for any other big ones that i know people are going to be annoyed by here if they aren't done at this point | 01:38 |
| mcisbackuk | ryanacka | 01:38 |
| mcisbackuk | oops | 01:38 |
| * RAOF would like to fix debian bug #461353 before FF, for example. | 01:38 | |
| ubotu | Debian bug 461353 in monodevelop "monodevelop: Fails to start without Gecko" [Normal,Open] http://bugs.debian.org/461353 | 01:39 |
| RAOF | Argh, wrong one. | 01:39 |
| ryanakca | mcisbackuk: to reply, put the persons name : message. | 01:39 |
| mcisbackuk | Am I still connected? | 01:44 |
| RAOF | mcisbackuk: Yes. | 01:44 |
| mcisbackuk | RAOF : Thanks | 01:45 |
| mcisbackuk | RAOF: Thanks | 01:45 |
| RAOF | It's just that no one is saying anything much :) | 01:46 |
| RAOF | That happens. | 01:47 |
| mcisbackuk | Ahh I see :) | 01:47 |
| mcisbackuk | I really wann get my hands dirty in linux lol | 01:48 |
| mcisbackuk | Are packages added to the repositories after the feature freeze do you know? | 01:48 |
| RAOF | Only with a good reason. | 01:49 |
| mcisbackuk | So not anything silly like someone wants a game then | 01:49 |
| RAOF | The only really hard freeze is at the end. All the other freezes mean that you need to make a good argument for why $PACKAGE should be an exception. | 01:49 |
| ScottK | mcisbackuk: If you are just starting now, you probably want to start learning packaging through bugfixing and merges and then do new packages starting with Hardy +1 | 01:50 |
| mcisbackuk | What if it's built for 7.10 for example though? | 01:50 |
| mcisbackuk | Ahh I see... | 01:50 |
| ScottK | 7.10 is done. Packages can be added/updates from Hardy in gutsy-backports, but that's it. | 01:50 |
| mcisbackuk | ok | 01:51 |
| mcisbackuk | I get it now :) | 01:52 |
| mcisbackuk | So I take it the only time software gets updated is with a new release, and its only bugfixes/security updates until then? | 01:53 |
| minghua | If you mean "after that" by "until then", basically yes. | 01:54 |
| RAOF | Pretty much. And not just any bugfixes; they need to be important (for a certain definition of important). | 01:54 |
| minghua | From a user's point of view, at least. | 01:54 |
| mcisbackuk | Like data loss, corruption I take it? | 01:55 |
| RAOF | That'd certainly qualify. Also regressions from previous versions (it works in Feisty, but not Gutsy) often qualify. | 01:55 |
| mcisbackuk | I see | 01:55 |
| LaserJock | mcisbackuk: you might want to read http://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates | 01:55 |
| ScottK | Up until the beta, my usual definition of sufficiently importatant is someone thougth it was worth the trouble to come up with the fix. | 01:56 |
| RAOF | Basically the risks of touching a package increase the closer to the release date we are. *After* the release date the risk is considered very nearly infinite, so you need a *very* good reason for touching anything. | 01:56 |
| mcisbackuk | Since everything is pretty much working at that point? | 01:57 |
| zul | evening | 01:57 |
| ScottK | That's the theory. | 01:57 |
| ScottK | evening zul. | 01:58 |
| zul | how is going ScottK | 01:58 |
| mcisbackuk | Theory's nice lol :) | 01:58 |
| ScottK | zul: Pretty good. LaserJock's uploading the source backports for Dapper so we can get the current clamav into dapper-backports. | 01:58 |
| zul | nifty | 01:59 |
| * RAOF needs to write a blog post on what "stable" means in the context of Ubuntu releases/archives. | 01:59 | |
| ScottK | I feel like I just did a masters thesis in packaging, testing, and release management. | 01:59 |
| mcisbackuk | So, sorry guys, what about bug #182693, it says needs-packaging, but its under mentoring available? Does that mean the maintainer is willing to help out someone new with doing it? Sorry you must all think I'm a pain in the backside. | 02:00 |
| ubotu | Launchpad bug 182693 in ubuntu "[needs-packaging] monkeystudio" [Wishlist,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/182693 | 02:00 |
| ScottK | mcisbackuk: Part of what we do is help people get started. | 02:00 |
| ScottK | mcisbackuk: You're fine. | 02:01 |
| RAOF | mcisbackuk: The "in progress" status of that bug suggests that someone is actively working on it, so it might not be a good place to start. | 02:01 |
| mcisbackuk | ScottK: Thanks :) I just want to learn and help out | 02:01 |
| ScottK | Then you're in the right place | 02:01 |
| mcisbackuk | Well I was looking at bug #184791, and it looked like a simple one to start off with, an alarm clock....but none of the guides tell you how to compile the binary/deb in python | 02:03 |
| ubotu | Launchpad bug 184791 in ubuntu "[needs-packaging] Alarm Clock" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/184791 | 02:03 |
| mcisbackuk | Or vice versa | 02:05 |
| ScottK | mcisbackuk: We're pretty close to feature freeze. It's really unlikely that if you start a new package it would make it into Hardy, but you're certainly free to give it a shot if you want. | 02:08 |
| mcisbackuk | ScottK: Well I'd like to at least have a go, and try refining the skills needed to package. | 02:09 |
| RAOF | mcisbackuk: It's much easier to start with bugfixing. Then you learn bits of packaging at a time. | 02:10 |
| mcisbackuk | RAOF: Don't you need to know more about the actual code then? | 02:10 |
| ScottK | mcisbackuk: If you really want to take a shot at that one, find a similar package and see how they did it. | 02:10 |
| ScottK | mcisbackuk: Do you code at all? | 02:11 |
| mcisbackuk | Nope - I think that may be the problem lol | 02:11 |
| ScottK | It's not needed to package. | 02:11 |
| mcisbackuk | Thank god | 02:12 |
| ScottK | look for bugs tagged packaging and bitesize | 02:12 |
| RAOF | mcisbackuk: You don't have to understand the code in many cases. Some bugs are just in the packaging. Sometimes you can follow the bug to the upstream bug tracker, where there's a patch to fix it. | 02:12 |
| mcisbackuk | As in the original from the developers website? | 02:12 |
| RAOF | Yes. | 02:12 |
| mcisbackuk | OK, maybe I'll start there :) | 02:13 |
| mcisbackuk | Can either of you point me to an idiots guide, if there is such a thing? | 02:13 |
| mcisbackuk | lol | 02:13 |
| LaserJock | mcisbackuk: and idiots guide to what? | 02:20 |
| mcisbackuk | LaserJock: Packaging, or as RAOF said re-packaging upstream versions | 02:21 |
| LaserJock | mcisbackuk: I think the best we've got really is the packaging guide http://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide | 02:22 |
| mcisbackuk | LaserJock: OK I'll have to grit my teeth and buckle down and see if I can work it out, I won't let it get the better of me :) | 02:22 |
| LaserJock | mcisbackuk: packaging is not all that hard, but does require patience | 02:24 |
| LaserJock | there is a lot of stuff to remember | 02:24 |
| LaserJock | but it's definitely learnable | 02:24 |
| mcisbackuk | I have the patience and the time to do it definately, and I learn quick | 02:24 |
| jscinoz | well i managed to bork my system >_< | 02:28 |
| mcisbackuk | Doesn't sound good..... | 02:29 |
| ScottK | jscinoz: This isn't a support channel. | 02:30 |

| vemon | should i add "Uploaded to REVU: http://...." comment to a [needs-packaging] bug when i do a revu upload? | 05:51 |
| LaserJock | wouldn't hurt | 05:51 |

| warp10 | Heya | 07:05 |
| yamal | mornin | 07:05 |
| yamal | MOTUs, your comments please, for the latest and greatest sabnzbd package: http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?package=sabnzbdplus | 07:08 |
| theseinfeld | cprov: how long does it take to revu to get your dput and email you? | 08:56 |
| amarillion | Please be so kind to review one of my packages http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?package=alex4 and http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?package=speed-game. These packages are in a good state, all previous comments have been addressed | 08:56 |
| amarillion | theseinfeld, you won't get an email... | 08:57 |
| amarillion | but revu is updated once every 12 minutes | 08:57 |
| theseinfeld | amarillion: yes, I can see that it was received, but I was waiting for the password so I could login... | 08:57 |
| theseinfeld | amarillion: or did i get it all wrong? | 08:57 |
| theseinfeld | :( | 08:57 |
| amarillion | The password won't get emailed either. Just fill out your email address, and press login. It fails, then gives you the option to get a new password | 08:58 |
| theseinfeld | Once you have uploaded a package to REVU, a password will be created for you. To get it, enter your e-mail address into the login box, leaving the password field blank, and click Login. Click Recover, and REVU will display an encrypted message with your password in it. | 08:59 |
| theseinfeld | yes | 08:59 |
| theseinfeld | amarillion: you are right... | 08:59 |
| amarillion | yeah, do you get a password now? | 09:00 |
| theseinfeld | amarillion: the problem is that i get this | 09:00 |
| theseinfeld | No REVU account for theseinfeld@users.sf.net exists yet. | 09:00 |
| amarillion | Did you sign up for the universe contributors team? | 09:00 |
| theseinfeld | yes | 09:00 |
| amarillion | also, do you have a GPG key uploaded to launchpad? | 09:00 |
| theseinfeld | since yesterday | 09:00 |
| theseinfeld | the key must be 2 years old | 09:00 |
| theseinfeld | :D | 09:00 |
| theseinfeld | yes yes yes | 09:00 |
| amarillion | oh, it may take a day before the keys get copied to revu | 09:01 |
| amarillion | so that may be the problem | 09:01 |
| amarillion | ask persia to do a sync | 09:01 |
| theseinfeld | whois persia | 09:01 |
| theseinfeld | ok | 09:01 |
| theseinfeld | I can wait also... | 09:01 |
| amarillion | yeah, both will work :) | 09:01 |
| theseinfeld | I was puzzled that the package is uploaded | 09:01 |
| amarillion | did you upload a package? | 09:02 |
| theseinfeld | http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?package=libdc1394-22 | 09:02 |
| amarillion | which one? | 09:02 |
| philn | hi | 09:02 |

| amarillion | theseinfeld, would you like me to review it? | 09:03 |
| theseinfeld | amarillion: on phone...just a sec | 09:04 |
| philn | i created a bug to sync a package in hardy, do i need subscribe someone special so that it's taken care of? | 09:06 |

| vemon | is the backports repository the only place to get new upstream versions after an ubuntu release? | 09:17 |
| vemon | meaning: are bug fixes the only changes which are uploaded to the normal repos after release? | 09:18 |

| slytherin | geser: One more question. Are 'arch: all' packages built on i386 only? | 09:26 |
| theseinfeld | amarillion: back | 09:27 |

| psicus78 | hi | 10:10 |
| geser | slytherin: do you know if with sun-java[56] compiled code runs with kaffe? I'm looking at the statcvs package now. | 10:19 |
| slytherin | geser: Not sure, never used kaffe. But if the code itself doesn't use any sun specific apis/extensions then it should run with any VM. And I guess kaffe supports Java 1.5 apis, but I will have to confirm. | 10:21 |
| slytherin | geser: What is the problem by the way? | 10:21 |
| geser | slytherin: no problem, just checking if depends line is still correct after changing build-depends | 10:23 |
| geser | statcvs depwaits currently on sun-j2sdk* and I want to change it to the available compilers | 10:24 |
| slytherin | geser: Why not try java-gcj-compat-dev? | 10:25 |
| geser | I did, doesn't build with it | 10:25 |
| slytherin | geser: can you paste the error somewhere? | 10:26 |
| geser | btw: libjibx-java from yesterday doesn't build with gcj either | 10:26 |
| slytherin | hmm. | 10:27 |
| slytherin | geser: looks like kaffe is far behind other Free JVMs. http://www.kaffe.org/~stuart/japi/htmlout/h-kaffe-jdk14.html | 10:29 |
| geser | slytherin: http://paste.ubuntu.com/3773/ | 10:32 |
| psicus78 | hi! | 10:33 |
| psicus78 | do you know if it exist any tool that allow to find out (and then install) all the build-dependencies of a package which is not debianized yet? I mean get all the libblabla-dev required at build time? | 10:33 |
| geser | psicus78: no, try and error | 10:33 |
| slytherin | geser: Check error number 8, It uses sun specific apis. | 10:34 |
| geser | psicus78: you can read the README and/or INSTALL file and hope that it contains a list of requirements | 10:34 |
| minghua | psicus78: There are tools to help, but nothing like "apt-get build-dep" | 10:34 |
| psicus78 | minghua: yes, autotools should help | 10:34 |
| geser | psicus78: you can also look which packages configure looks for | 10:35 |
| psicus78 | geser: correct, that's what I was thinking | 10:35 |
| DaveMorris | \me plugs his package for revu - http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?package=opensg It's an OSS distributed scenegraph API for doing some cool 3D graphics across multiple machines or single machines. Has support for sort 1st and sort last. I'm currently using it to power a cluster with a 46 million pixel display. It's cool so please revu it. | 10:35 |
| psicus78 | I was wondering if it would be possible to automate that | 10:35 |
| geser | slytherin: so build-depend on sun-java[56]-jdk. is kaffe still a good candidate for depends? | 10:36 |
| psicus78 | I believe it is possible | 10:36 |
| geser | psicus78: you could also check the included headers files | 10:37 |
| slytherin | geser: No. Obviously in this case since the runtime should also contain those sun specific apis, only Sun JRE qualifies | 10:37 |
| geser | slytherin: so I change "Depends: classpath, kaffe | java2-runtime" to "Depends: sun-java6-jre | java2-runtime"? | 10:38 |
| slytherin | geser: only "sun-java5-jre | sun-java6-jre". | 10:39 |
| geser | slytherin: thanks | 10:40 |
| psicus78 | geser: mmm...if the developer uses autotools he should check everything in configure.ac | 10:42 |
| psicus78 | geser: or configure.in | 10:42 |
| geser | psicus78: yes, if the developer uses autotools | 10:43 |
| psicus78 | geser: I was wondering if there is something cannot be discovered automatically | 10:44 |
| vemon | now that you're talking about Depends... what does the {sh:Depends} (probably not typed correctly) actually do? | 10:44 |
| vemon | i've seen that in many packages and it seems it's not necessary to explicitly define deps for those packages | 10:45 |
| vemon | i'n debian/control i mean | 10:45 |
| psicus78 | geser: for instance in network-manager there is some code to check for wireless-tools but not using pkg-config, that could be a problem | 10:45 |
| geser | vemon: dh_shlibdeps computes the runtime dependencies (by looking at the needed libs) and replaces the the placeholder with it | 10:46 |
| psicus78 | vemon: I'm not sure 100% but I think {sh:Depends} includes all the packages that contain the shared libraries required at runtime | 10:46 |
| psicus78 | vemon: what I want is build-time depends instead | 10:46 |
| psicus78 | geser: I must suppose that autotools is used, otherwise is impossible | 10:48 |
| slytherin | Can someone explain to me process of merge? | 10:49 |
| geser | slytherin: simplified: you take the latest debian revision and the Ubuntu changes, check which are still needed and apply them again | 10:50 |
| geser | slytherin: you can use the output of MoM as a starting point for most merges | 10:50 |
| slytherin | geser: Ok. And then which debdiff should I submit? Or should I submit interdiff? | 10:51 |
| geser | slytherin: debdiff, between the debian revision and the new ubuntu revision | 10:52 |
| slytherin | ok, thanks. | 10:53 |
| vemon | are there cases where sh:Depends is not enough? (i guess when some package is only suggested?) | 10:53 |
| geser | vemon: it works only for libraries (lib*.so.*), so if your app is written in perl/ruby/python/etc. you need to figure the depends yourself out | 10:55 |
| geser | vemon: another examples are -dev packages, where you want to install the correct version of the lib the headers belong to | 10:56 |
| vemon | can give me an example? | 11:00 |
| geser | vemon: an example for what? | 11:01 |
| vemon | geser, for a dev package which requires a certain version of the lib it gives headers to | 11:11 |
| geser | vemon: e.g. http://revu.tauware.de/revu1-incoming/libmirage-0801202040/libmirage-1.0.0/debian/control any other package on revu building a -dev package should have it too | 11:19 |
| slytherin | geser: Are you able to search packages in debian unstable from http://packages.debian.org ? It times out for me for last few days. | 11:26 |
| man-di | slytherin: works fine here | 11:31 |
| geser | slytherin: here too | 11:32 |
| vemon | geser, now i understand. i think i missed the part where you said the package to be built is a dev- package. :) | 11:35 |

| frafu | Please ignore the package from January 21 18:30; its upload was an error. | 12:15 |
| ion_ | It might be best to reupload the correct one. | 12:16 |
| frafu | ion_: reuploading does not work: package already uploaded error | 12:19 |
| slytherin | frafu: use 'dput -f' option | 12:19 |
| persia | frafu: delete your .upload fle | 12:20 |
| frafu | thanks for the tips | 12:21 |
| * ion_ cringes. From the postinst of a third-party deb: | 12:23 | |
| ion_ | cp /usr/share/retroshare/retroshare.desktop "$HOME/Desktop" | 12:24 |
| LongPointyStick | ...blink | 12:24 |
| persia | It recreates that wonderful "launcher on the desktop on install" feature, except that the install doesn't actually run as the user :) Perfect for those scenarios where you run X as root. | 12:25 |
| StevenK | Which gdm doesn't permit, if I recall | 12:25 |
| persia | StevenK: There are ways around gdm, and gdm can be configured to allow it, but in most cases you are correct (as usual) | 12:26 |
| frafu | persia: where can I find the .upload file? | 12:26 |
| persia | frafu: should be in the same directory as the .changes you uploaded. | 12:26 |
| frafu | persia: ok; I understand now; I searched for it in my home directory. Thanks again. | 12:29 |
| persia | Java question: If upstream has mixed-case in their .jar file, I know we flatten for the package name, but do we also flatten the .jar file? | 12:36 |
| slangasek | I can't see any reason why you would, surely that would induce incompatibility with upstream? | 12:37 |
| theseinfeld | anybody for reviewing http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?upid=1391 ? | 12:37 |
| theseinfeld | thanks | 12:37 |
| persia | slangasek: That's what I was thinking, but I'm a little fuzzy on Java policy. Thanks for the confirmation. | 12:37 |
| persia | theseinfeld: There tends to be a significant lull in reviewing just after REVU day (ended 99 minutes ago). If your package was submitted before REVU day, and nobody looked at it, it will be included in the post-REVU day summary mail, and may get a review. | 12:39 |
| slytherin | persia: I would recommend not do do that. What if the package has some demo program which uses jar file. The program won't find the file in that case. | 12:39 |
| persia | slytherin: It shan't be done then :) | 12:40 |
| slytherin | geser: A little help needed, libhibernate3-java has manual dep wait on libcglib2.1-java, but I can't find that package in Ubuntu as well as Debian. | 12:41 |

| persia | slytherin: I don't see it in the Ubuntu repositories. rmadison might be a tool worth investigating | 12:54 |
| slytherin | persia: Can absence of a package cause depwait packages that depend on it? looks like cglib2.1 has a depwait for same reason and in turn causes depwait in hibernate3 | 12:56 |
| persia | slytherin: Yep. depwait only means the build dependencies cannot be satisfied. This can be a typo, a needed update, a side effect of a removal, or a build failure somewhere else in the chain. | 12:58 |

| Hobbsee | when will someone write a script that gets the address of the .dsc for the latest package in debian? | 13:00 |
| geser | Hobbsee: start coding :) | 13:01 |
| persia | Hobbsee: apt will do that, if you like. I wrote a dirty hack to do it, but these days I find it most convenient to keep an up-to-date sid chroot around and just use apt-get source with /home bind-mounted. | 13:01 |
| Hobbsee | hm | 13:02 |
| persia | If you use mk-sbuild-lv from ubuntu-dev-tools to generate the sid chroot, it takes care of all the mounting stuff for you. You just need a couple gig free for the volume group for the LV in which the chroot lives. | 13:03 |
| geser | Hobbsee: shouldn't apt-get source -t unstable do it if you have a deb-src line in your sources.list? | 13:03 |

| man-di | StevenK: Its the successor of amd64 with one more address bit to make it possible to address more memory | 13:09 |
| AnAnt | persia: well, I don't think so. I really dunno what to do about modifying gdm.conf & grub.conf | 13:09 |

| Aloha | woohoo! | 13:10 |
| Aloha | my pbuilder install is done | 13:10 |
| persia | AnAnt: Hrm. Have you tried asking one of the other derivatives about it? Maybe #xubuntu or #ubuntustudio or #icthux would have some pointers. | 13:10 |
| \sh | persia, mk-sbuild-lv just has this nasty debootstrap->find distro in /usr/lib/debootstrap bug ;) it's fixed in our bzr branch of ubuntu-dev-tools | 13:11 |
| \sh | moins btw | 13:11 |
| persia | AnAnt: That was more that either the packages oughtn't be native, or be in LP bzr. LP accounts are free, but I can understand if there are issues with the service. The other option is not to publish any Vcs-*, but that can affect maintenance. | 13:11 |
| persia | \sh: Why is it only fixed in bzr? Shouldn't it be fixed where we can use it? | 13:12 |
| \sh | persia, well it would be a good idea to release a new version of ubuntu-dev-tools | 13:12 |
| Aloha | how do you import signature for apt-get source? | 13:13 |
| persia | \sh: You have the power... | 13:13 |
| Aloha | i mean key | 13:13 |
| persia | Aloha: There's no easy way. You have to collect the keys of all the developers. | 13:13 |

| Aloha | whats bazaar used for? is it like PPA? | 13:16 |
| \sh | ScottK, oh I never used pbuilder-dist ;) I have my own pbuilder framwork | 13:16 |
| geser | Aloha: have you heard of cvs or svn? bzr is an other version control system | 13:16 |
| Aloha | geser, gotcha. is it ubuntu specific? | 13:17 |
| \sh | Aloha, nope | 13:17 |

| ion_ | It’s just orders of magnitude slower than git. :-( | 13:17 |

| \sh | Aloha, it's sponsored by canonical ;) | 13:18 |

| * \sh 's busy with gnucash | 13:18 | |
| \sh | ScottK, what wasn't working in pbuilder-dist? | 13:19 |
| mok0 | persia: working in this communtity has taught me that patience pays off :-) | 13:19 |
| ScottK | \sh: I'm not sure, but laserjock was saying he wrote a new script because it wasn't working for him. | 13:19 |
| ScottK | \sh: Something wrong with create, so if you can make a new pbuilder, then I think it's fine. Might be worth a quick test. | 13:20 |
| \sh | ScottK, ok...I'll test after gnucash | 13:20 |
| ScottK | OK. | 13:20 |
| \sh | and if anybody has experience with crystalspace, I would like to ask for some testbuilds of new upstream....looks like it's broken somehow but I don't have any clue about it | 13:21 |
| mok0 | There's actually a build machine called "hooker"... | 13:23 |
| * \sh has his own build machine ;) | 13:24 | |
| ScottK | mok0: I choose to assume it's named after General Hooker. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Hooker | 13:24 |
| mok0 | ScottK: Oh, of course :-> | 13:25 |
| ion_ | One of my keyboards (as in, the ones with black and white keys that play sound) has a controller titled “Bender”. | 13:25 |
| \sh | ion_, I think the "Bender" name for the "make sound keyboards" are older then the name of Futuramas Bender ;) | 13:26 |
| \sh | "Good News Everyone" ! | 13:26 |
| mok0 | "Building bender in hardy on hooker" :-P | 13:26 |
| ion_ | It’s just called “Pitch Bend” in every other keyboard i’ve seen. :-) | 13:26 |
| \sh | well...looks like we get a new gnucash version soon....after the gconf fix it's building again ;) | 13:28 |
| Aloha | in apt-get source how do i get an earlier package version, such as hello-debhelper-2.1.1 instead of 2.2? | 13:29 |
| persia | ion_: I've seen "mod" and "twist" as well. | 13:30 |
| \sh | ScottK, do you still want to have quilt introduced in gnucash fixing *.desktop* files? | 13:32 |
| * persia encourages fixing .desktop files, but wonders if it is really worth quilt | 13:34 | |
| \sh | persia, I agree...packages without any patch system where we have to add some trivial fixes could be still be made inside diff.gz | 13:35 |
| \sh | but I asked better ScottK because he introduced quilt in gnucash ;) | 13:35 |
| persia | \sh: Depends on the maintainer. If a maintainer always uses patch system X, and we know that, and we introduce a change, using patch system X is the best way to do that. | 13:35 |
| \sh | persia, there was no patch system before and after ;) | 13:36 |
| AnAnt | persia: so, all I have to do is remove the Vcs-* fields ? | 13:36 |
| \sh | and there are two changes left...libungif4-dev -> libgif-dev and the desktop fixes | 13:37 |
| AnAnt | persia: and still keep the package source in the current SVN repository ? | 13:37 |
| persia | AnAnt: That would suit me. My objection is to specifically asking people editing the package to use the VCS repo, and not granting them access by default. | 13:37 |
| AnAnt | persia: ah, ok | 13:38 |
| persia | With LP, it's easy to add the ubuntu-dev group, but externally, it's hard. If the packaging isn't listed as being in a VCS, people just commit changes to the repo. Maybe a little harder for you to track, but less confusing for normal package maintenance. | 13:38 |
| Aloha | wohoo almost done building my first source package | 13:41 |
| AnAnt | persia: ok, and the svn URL would be mentioned in copyright ? | 13:41 |
| persia | AnAnt: Well, that gets back to whether it is a native package. If you downloaded it from some upstream, it isn't native, and shouldn't be treated as such. If it is native, then there's no upstream from which to download it, and it wouldn't get put in debian/copyright. Personally, I don't like native packages (and really appreciate the way the mythbuntu team does their packages) | 13:42 |
| StevenK | Grumbles. | 13:44 |
| * StevenK wonders how to join lines from stdin | 13:45 | |
| jpatrick | stdin: you around?^^ | 13:45 |
| persia | StevenK: Do you mean like a zipper mixing stdin and a file, or just push a stream onto a single line? | 13:45 |
| StevenK | persia: Not exactly. I have 1 2 3 4 on seperate lines, and I want to end up with 12 34 on seperate lines. | 13:46 |
| StevenK | I thought paste could it, but it seems it can't | 13:46 |
| persia | StevenK: awk can do that. Now I have to go look for my scripts. Given your preferences for newfangled human-readable languages, you might find perl easier (only chomp every other input line) | 13:47 |
| StevenK | Since the script is in shell, I'd rather not pipe to Perl | 13:48 |
| \sh | awk != human readable ? | 13:48 |
| StevenK | Since if I'm going to end up piping to Perl, I may as well rewrite the script in Perl | 13:49 |
| persia | StevenK: awk '/$/ {sub(/\\$/,""); getline t; print $0 t; next}; 1' | 13:51 |
| persia | Note that this works by accident in a way, as it just grabs the second line when the first terminates, and then skips the actual processing of the second line, as it was already grabbed. | 13:51 |
| ScottK | \sh: You can be confident that if I introduced a patch system, it wasn't quilt. | 13:52 |
| StevenK | Haha | 13:52 |
| \sh | ScottK, ohj well...it was siretart indeed...sorry scott ;) | 13:52 |
| zul | heh dpatch is worse | 13:52 |
| * persia suggests that the best patch system is that which allows the person adding patches to have an easy workflow, and is rarely the same for any two parties. | 13:53 | |
| ScottK | Well without dpatch-edit-patch it'd be painful, but with it is pretty easy. | 13:53 |
| \sh | ScottK, quilt is also not so difficult .. well, when you understand how it works, sure | 13:53 |
| ScottK | \sh: Yes. I think if I used it regularly it would be OK. | 13:54 |
| StevenK | Agreed. I sat down and fleshed out how to write a quilt patch | 13:54 |
| * TheMuso prefers dpatch. | 13:54 | |
| \sh | not forgetting to set QUILT_PATCHES=debian/patches that is ;) | 13:54 |
| \sh | but I set this shell var now as default in ~/.bashrc | 13:55 |
| siretart | \sh: I did what? | 13:57 |
| \sh | siretart, introduced quilt in gnucash | 13:57 |
| LucidFox | persia> Sorry, I was away | 13:57 |
| siretart | bad siretart | 13:57 |
| AnAnt | I use quilt | 13:58 |
| LucidFox | I will try running combinediff right now and see if I can reproduce your problem | 13:58 |
| \sh | siretart, but you never activated it, that was pkern ;) | 13:58 |
| siretart | lol | 13:59 |
| \sh | well, I'd remove it again, because the fixes are trivial... | 13:59 |

| man-di | slytherin: and I have a plan when nothing happens in some timeframe | 14:39 |
| man-di | the package is really outdated anyway | 14:39 |
| slytherin | man-di: So what is the plan exactly. :-) | 14:40 |
| norsetto | would anybody have any pointer re. ubuntu/debian udev policies? | 14:41 |
| Aloha | ok changed to devel, lets see if that works | 14:41 |
| man-di | slytherin: NMU if really relly needed as it fixes an RC bug | 14:41 |
| slytherin | man-di: Which bug are you referring to? | 14:43 |
| man-di | slytherin: that w3c-dtd-xhtml bug | 14:44 |
| slytherin | man-di: Oh. I didn't know that was RC bug. :-) | 14:44 |
| man-di | that but is not | 14:44 |
| man-di | but it needs to be fixed to make lucene2 not FTPFS | 14:44 |
| man-di | so its indirectly RC | 14:44 |
| slytherin | ah, ok | 14:44 |
| \sh | well...what should I do now with a wrong /etc/pbuilder/pbuilderrc that's another reason why pbuilder-dist create failes... | 14:46 |
| \sh | looks like I have to imrpove the script... | 14:46 |
| slytherin | man-di: I am not sure if I already mention but lucene2 may build with GCJ. At least the core part built when I disabled the unit tests. I will try again once the dtd bug is solved and package synced in Ubuntu. | 14:47 |
| persia | slytherin: please subscribe me to the lucene2 sync bug if you get it fixed. I have a personal interest in seeing that work. | 14:48 |
| slytherin | persia: Sure. once the w3c-dtd-xhtml package is fixed in debian and man-di uses my fix for lucene2 in debian. :-) | 14:49 |

| persia | Hey bddebian. Did trustedqsl work for you? Is survex the last one? | 15:04 |
| bddebian | persia: survex and ctsim are the hold-outs :( | 15:04 |
| bddebian | persia: Oh, and Hi :-) | 15:05 |
| persia | Right. Have you tried survex 1.1? I think ctsim is a lost cause, given the upstream response. Similar reasoning led to dropping a few other packages (or just not building the WX GUI). | 15:05 |
| bddebian | persia: Not yet. I asked wookey about it when I filed the RC bug ;-) | 15:07 |
| * persia cheers the power of RC bugs, and misses ajmitch | 15:07 | |
| norsetto | heya dholbach ! | 15:08 |
| persia | bddebian: Probably worth a shot. Olly was at least interested, even if neither Phillip or I actually sent him a patch. | 15:08 |
| bddebian | persia: Well get to work man.. :-) | 15:09 |
| * persia is currently assigned 6 bugs, a library upgrade (and ensuing transition), REVU, and some upstream community work. Maybe in a couple weeks, but FF nears... | 15:11 | |

| kdub | ah, very nice. i suppose i'll get to work then :-D | 15:22 |

| nixternal | hehe | 15:23 |
| persia | kdub: You may find the learning path easier with bugfixing (although you'll need to learn launchpad for that) | 15:23 |

| nixternal | boo | 15:23 |
| persia | bddebian: OK. You just asked me before about the fix, and I happened across an old mail while searching for something else, and wanted to make sure the apparent closure in ~test1 hadn't kept it from your sight. | 15:24 |
| kdub | persia: i've been sifting through bugs already, but i've been mostly just trying to eliminate bugs people report that arent really bugs | 15:24 |
| LucidFox | Ubuntu has the concept of NMUs? | 15:24 |

| jeromeg | is my proposal ok ? | 15:26 |
| persia | LucidFox: And in a looser sense, when the Maintainer is set to a specific team (e.g. media, xubuntu, mozilla, etc.) it is considered good form to check with a member of the team before uploading for any significant changes. | 15:26 |
| LucidFox | I see. | 15:26 |
| persia | jeromeg: You probably want to subscribe ~motu-sru to that bug | 15:26 |
| persia | Further, you likely want to prepare a debdiff (or convince someone else to do so) for review. | 15:27 |

| LucidFox | On an unrelated note, does it make sense to sync -1 from Debian if it's identical to -0ubuntu1? Or if it contains functionally the same changes? | 15:30 |
| persia | LucidFox: Little benefit to such a sync. I usually skip those. Some people like to sync them to make the Ubuntu variance appear less. | 15:33 |

| dx9s_work | persia, I have that in my source (did an upgrade from 7.04 Feisty) .. I suspect I am missing a line in /etc/apt/sources.list then... | 15:46 |
| persia | danbhfive: I'm not the best person to ask (I don't tend to do new packages). The dh_installmime manpage suggests the mime-support and shared-mime-info packages may have some documentation. The freedesktop.org website can help with the .desktop file. | 15:46 |

| jeromeg | pochu: oh I'll just test printing before submitting it | 15:59 |
| \sh | persia, fixed pbuilder-dist create, provide a sane source.list for --aptconfdir and remove $COMPONENTS_LINE which sadly didn't work (I wonder why) , added --http-proxy support and changed the $ARCHIVE workflow a bit, so it's possible to set $ARCHIVE before the pbuilder-dist call | 15:59 |
| persia | \sh: Although I have never used pbuilder and don't really intend to start, I commend your attitude towards fixing everything for a new upload :) | 16:00 |

| LucidFox | no kde4libs on hppa? that's a shame | 16:01 |
| LucidFox | looking at the build log, it just segfaulted for no apparent reason | 16:01 |
| dx9s_work | persia, okay I can't answer that.. .dsc description files? mainly there is no standard method for dependency checking ... 3rd party tools that do okay but nothing perfect... | 16:02 |
| persia | dx9s_work: :) That's OK. I didn't really expect there to be one. | 16:03 |

| pochu | Do we need a bulb next to the new packages in REVU? It makes the rows too high | 16:04 |
| pochu | jeromeg: please go ahead. I don't think that's a regression, and I can't say that's scribes' fault... | 16:05 |
| persia | pochu: source is in LP :) | 16:05 |
| dx9s_work | persia, yeah, different methods for updates... some just hack the changelog file and apply them in order (slack-apt) and so forth.. but without dependency checking -- lot of tgz maintainers try to link the binaries to generic (symlinked) libs so instead of libBLAH.so.0.1.123 .. it's libBLAH.so.0 (or *.0.1) so updates don't break because of specific versioning. | 16:05 |

| persia | pochu: If you're hacking, I'd like to see hearts for >1 advocates, bulbs for 1 advocate, glasses for 0 advocates, and hammers for rejections. The two icon bit was more important when updates were going to REVU as well (now we use debdiffs & interdiffs). | 16:06 |
| pochu | persia: how do you reject a package in REVU? | 16:08 |
| mok0 | persia: don't tell him | 16:09 |
| persia | pochu: A rejection happens when someone who is registered as a reviewer (as opposed to a contributor) leaves a comment without advocating. | 16:09 |

| mok0 | sistpoty|work: because it's nowhere else and he should sell the program | 16:21 |

| pochu | persia: hmm, advocates < 0 ? Does REVU adv -= 1 when you don't advocate a package? | 16:27 |
| sistpoty|work | pochu: nope, adv=0 can never hapen | 16:27 |
| persia | pochu: Not really, but when a MOTU leaves a comment and doesn't advocate, it counts as negative advocation in a way (and no, this isn't how the code works) | 16:27 |
| sistpoty|work | +p | 16:27 |
| persia | sistpoty|work: Hrm? Do you mean to say that when a MOTU comments, the state changes (and this cannot be prevented), or that there can never be 0 advocations for a candidate? | 16:28 |
| frafu | TheMuso: I would like to let you know that I managed to upload the correct version of mousetweaks a second time to revu. So if you still intend to review it (which would be nice), you can simply pick the most recent upload. | 16:29 |
| sistpoty|work | persia: no, I just wanted to say that my brain (which says kvirc as irc client->german keyboard layout) is making me heavy trouble here at work, where I have a us layout *g* | 16:29 |
| TheMuso | frafu: I know, I will do my best to get to it, however I am somewhat busy. | 16:29 |
| persia | sistpoty|work: I completely understand. My current client has a US layout, which means I tend to pair "*...(" far too often :) | 16:30 |
| sistpoty|work | persia: so there can never be adv<0, but negative advocations add the hammer (= motu comments w.o. advocate flag set) iirc | 16:31 |
| persia | sistpoty|work: Right. pochu's point was that double icons made the page too long. Given that we discourage existing packages on REVU now, I agreed it made sense to consolidate, and suggested trying for a patch. (While I'm sure you've enjoyed your recent monopoly on REVU work, I suspect you wouldn't mind a bit of help) | 16:32 |
| frafu | TheMuso; thanks; should I perhaps ping dholbach, who is also motu and a member of the accessibility team (at least I think so) ? | 16:32 |

| desertc | Greetings grand MOTU. Thank you for your support of Ubuntu. It continues to be the best operating system anywhere. May I ask your attention on a package issue? | 16:40 |
| desertc | http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/graphics/scribus | 16:40 |
| desertc | The standard operating procedure in #scribus is to instruct all Ubuntu users to this page, when they say the packaging for Scribus is incorrect in Ubuntu: | 16:41 |
| desertc | http://wiki.scribus.net/index.php/Getting_Scribus_on_Ubuntu/Kubuntu_up_and_running | 16:41 |
| persia | jeromeg: Ah. Yes. I previously played with the xrandr change, and didn't sync because I didn't think the try/catch clause was also included. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. | 16:41 |
| cyberix | persia: Does my new copyright file look ok to you? http://revu.tauware.de/revu1-incoming/malbolge-0801211640/malbolge-0.1.1/debian/copyright | 16:41 |

| jeromeg | persia: i know i should have asked you before filling the bug but i id things the other way round :) | 16:42 |
| jeromeg | persia: ok | 16:43 |
| desertc | The channel admins have said they were unable to get MOTU managers to correct these issues, and they are requesting all Ubuntu users to obtain different versions of the program, instead of the Ubuntu packaged software. | 16:43 |
| persia | jeromeg: Don't worry about asking me for any of my syncs or merges. I'm subscribed to bugmail for any packages I'm actually interested in, so I see them anyway, and I'm not very concerned about the size of my +packages | 16:43 |
| desertc | Is there a representative who can seek clarification in #scribus? I can see you look very busy, of course. | 16:44 |
| jeromeg | persia: ok | 16:44 |
| persia | jeromeg: On the other hand, feel free to ask me any questions about said syncs or merges :) | 16:44 |
| jeromeg | persia: i just wanted to train a little and do a merge, but in fact I realised it could be synced :) | 16:44 |

| TheMuso | zul: another 7 hours or so I'd say and he'll be around | 16:49 |
| zul | damn it | 16:49 |
| persia | jeromeg: I recommend checking the Debian list of recently closed RC bugs in combination with multidistrotools to find a good source of merge bugs. The RC bugs tracker is down right now, so it's a bit manual. | 16:51 |
| jeromeg | persia: i use DaD or MoM | 16:52 |
| jeromeg | persia: got to go | 16:52 |
| jeromeg | persia: please let me a comment on the bug report if something is wrong, but for me it builds fine | 16:52 |
| persia | jeromeg: Those are also useful tools, but not so good at finding the ones that really need the merge. | 16:52 |
| jeromeg | persia: ok | 16:53 |

| foolano | ok i c | 17:39 |
| pochu | sistpoty|work, persia: I'm with the REVU patch, and I have a little question. Actually for a package, new = True if it has >= 2 advocates in case it's a new package, or >= advocates in case it's an update. Since we don't want package updates in REVU anymore, does it still make sense to do that distinction? | 17:39 |
| \sh | RainCT, should be up now...but I don't see the changes on LP until now | 17:39 |
| RainCT | foolano: yes. if it's Monday somewhere on the world annoy people here asking for review (but only a little bit :P), and if it isn't Monday you can ask anyways :P | 17:40 |
| sistpoty|work | pochu: feel free to drop that | 17:40 |
| persia | pochu: Not really. All the more so because the NEW package checking is a little odd (it only checks at the time of the first upload, so any package first on REVU shows as NEW) | 17:41 |
| foolano | I've just uploaded two perl modules to REVU we are using in eBox: | 17:41 |

| \sh | btw...we don't have this "don't advocate your own packages anymore", right? | 17:43 |
| pochu | sistpoty|work, persia: sorry, I meant isReady = True if ... So I'll change it to "isReady = advocates > 1" always (without checking whether it's a new package or not). I think that will discourage people to submit updates to REVU, as that means the need 2 acks to get a heart and not 1 as now :) | 17:43 |
| persia | pochu: Maybe, but the fact that someone checks the packages once every couple weeks, and rejects all the non-NEW packages with a comment helps too :) | 17:44 |

| roderik | I'm having a litte problem creating a rules file that compiles one mono .exe file and installs it in /usr/bin.

This seems strange since the thing uses fakeroot? | 17:45 |
| \sh | RainCT, and for the --debootstrapopts subshell call, it wasn't working, too, just setting it by default helps a lot and doesn't matter even for the main arch | 17:45 |

| \sh | RainCT, ok..fixed | 18:00 |
| RainCT | \sh: a last complaint (well, actually it's a suggestion).. what's about looking at $PBUILDAUTH before $DESKTOP_SESSION, to allow people to use arbitrary commands (like using sudo even if they are in GNOME, or run gksudo with -g)? | 18:03 |
| \sh | RainCT, where is pbuildauth coming from? | 18:05 |
| rzr | hi | 18:06 |

| * superm1 really considers the VCS check during build | 19:38 | |
| jdong | superm1: but the more I think about it, the more I think a debian/rules VCS check is a good idea | 19:38 |
| superm1 | the problem is that no single package uses a VCS the same | 19:39 |
| superm1 | and mplayer is a lot different than many | 19:39 |
| superm1 | the way it does things | 19:39 |
| jdong | yeah | 19:39 |
| \sh | LaserJock, pbuilder-dist is working now ;) | 19:39 |
| ScottK | jdong and superm1: Since mplayer is maintained by MOTU and there's no MOTU workflow that requires VCS use, I think you've got nothing to complain about. | 19:40 |
| superm1 | ScottK, its maintained by MOTU-media | 19:40 |
| jdong | ScottK: it's less about complaining/blaming than about wanting to make sure people are aware of the preferred process... | 19:41 |
| ScottK | superm1: OK. I saw that and assumed it was MOTU (since that's how MOTU gets displayed in LP). | 19:41 |
| LaserJock | \sh: oh? good to know | 19:42 |
| superm1 | jdong, i'm almost thinking of doing a check using bzr diff | 19:42 |
| ScottK | LaserJock: Riddell is executing the clamav backport now. So far so good. Thanks again. | 19:42 |
| \sh | LaserJock, pushed a new package to the archive...should be there soon | 19:42 |
| LaserJock | ScottK: awesome | 19:42 |
| \sh | ScottK, please let riddell do some syncs...;) | 19:42 |
| jdong | superm1: easier, bzr cat :) | 19:42 |
| jdong | superm1: just compare debian/changelog version numbers | 19:43 |
| superm1 | that requires a filename | 19:43 |
| jdong | superm1: a diff would take too long | 19:43 |
| superm1 | jdong, bzr diff is very fast | 19:43 |
| jdong | superm1: not if you don'w have the full version history | 19:43 |
| superm1 | oh. which i do :) | 19:43 |
| jdong | superm1: i.e. if I apt-get source mplayer, then you want to diff it to bazaar.lp.net, it'll take a century and a half | 19:43 |
| jdong | superm1: however, if you just cat the debian/changelog on bzr and diff it to the local one, that is pretty fast | 19:44 |
| superm1 | yeah i was thinking locally, but that would take ages, and annoying to need the whole tree | 19:44 |
| superm1 | can the buildd's access the intarweb during builds? | 19:44 |
| jdong | superm1: I'm thinking just md5sum the changelogs. requires no version history | 19:44 |
| jdong | superm1: skip the check if DEBMAIL is unset? | 19:44 |
| jdong | like what the maintainer spec does | 19:45 |
| superm1 | so perhaps this is better added to devscripts directly | 19:45 |
| superm1 | something to check for the vcs line in debian/control | 19:45 |
| === Spec is now known as x-spec-t | ||
| jdong | superm1: that'd be nice | 19:46 |
| jdong | superm1: or if lintian can be modified to check VCS tags | 19:46 |
| superm1 | jdong, okay i'll fix this and think about that some more | 19:46 |
| superm1 | i'd rather a big fail than a lintian warning | 19:47 |
| superm1 | people easily overlook lintian stuff | 19:47 |

| norsetto | nxvl_work: well, don't let it bother you, must have been an oversight | 21:57 |
| emgent | persia, audacity bug it'snt fixed in hardy. | 21:57 |
| emgent | persia, defaultTempDir.Printf(wxT("/tmp/audacity%d.%d-%s"), | 21:58 |
| emgent | AUDACITY_VERSION, AUDACITY_RELEASE, wxGetUserId().c_str()); | 21:58 |
| emgent | see too: http://people.debian.org/~nion/nmu-diff/audacity-1.3.4-1_1.3.4-1.1.patch | 21:59 |
| norsetto | nxvl_work: I think that the problem is that he was asked to look at the bug, so he fixed it, he didn't consider your patch at all | 21:59 |
| nxvl_work | norsetto: nop, take a look at the changelog entries, those are the ones i wrote | 21:59 |
| nxvl_work | norsetto: also dholbach always ask for someone of the team to check the diff before sponsoring them | 22:00 |
| norsetto | nxvl_work: thats right, but since the package is in main and I guess chuck is maintaining it, he did it the fast way | 22:00 |
| nxvl_work | norsetto: yep, and thats why i hope it was just a mistake | 22:01 |
| nxvl_work | norsetto: but not less angry | 22:02 |
| norsetto | nxvl_work: I'm quite sure it was, what is important is that you don't let it bother you, its not really worth it | 22:02 |
| nxvl_work | norsetto: btw, i see there are calling for net MC Members, would you apply yourself, didn't you? | 22:03 |
| CyberMatt | are http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/ and revu.t.d the same | 22:04 |
| norsetto | nxvl_work: why should I? I'm a new guy on the block here, plenty of people more adequate than me for the post | 22:04 |
| LaserJock | CyberMatt: I think so yeah | 22:04 |
| nxvl_work | norsetto: because i think you have what it needs to make people happy working on MOTU, a really helpful and nice person | 22:05 |
| nxvl_work | norsetto: and those things are more important than technical skills | 22:05 |
| CyberMatt | i've been so busy contributing to debian its been quite awhile | 22:05 |
| nxvl_work | norsetto: and more for the management of a community | 22:05 |
| bddebian | Yeah instead of an old crotchedy jerk like me ;-) | 22:05 |
| LaserJock | lol | 22:05 |
| nxvl_work | norsetto: and as i think you don't know, it was you who gives me what i needed to make the effort on becoming a MOTU and don't quit :D | 22:07 |
| nxvl_work | norsetto: since you where so patient, nice and helpful | 22:07 |
| CyberMatt | good news is my packaging is like 70-80% better bad news is debian-policy = the-bible now | 22:07 |
| norsetto | nxvl_work: you better stop here before I cry ;-) | 22:07 |
| norsetto | nxvl_work: I'm also worried about bddebian, he has a tendency to vomit on my shoes if he is not at ease .... | 22:09 |
| LaserJock | haha | 22:09 |
| LaserJock | that's a looooong ways to go | 22:09 |
| LaserJock | transatlantic vomit | 22:10 |
| bddebian | hehe | 22:10 |
| norsetto | LaserJock: hmmm, try with the b word and see if it still has the same effect on him | 22:10 |
| LaserJock | hmm | 22:10 |
| LaserJock | maybe we should find a pic to put on his wiki page | 22:11 |
| cbx33 | heheh | 22:11 |
| LaserJock | alright guys, I'm out for a while. | 22:11 |
| nxvl_work | norsetto: heh | 22:11 |

| ScottK | imbrandon: Are you around? I need some source backport help... | 22:12 |
| nxvl_work | norsetto: i hope, i have just stop a little with packaging to make my python skills better | 22:12 |

| ScottK | cbx33: Welcome back then. | 22:15 |
| Ubulette | no | 22:15 |
| Ubulette | nxvl, debian is as behind as ubuntu | 22:15 |
| nxvl_work | Ubulette: or the inclusion in hardy? | 22:15 |
| cbx33 | hehe | 22:15 |
| cbx33 | I just did my first actual upload to universe | 22:15 |
| cbx33 | heheh | 22:15 |
| cbx33 | I've made pacakge before | 22:16 |
| cbx33 | but someone else always uploaded them | 22:16 |
| Ubulette | nxvl_work: isn't my description in the bug clear enough ? | 22:16 |
| Ubulette | 1st line | 22:16 |
| nxvl_work | nope | 22:16 |
| nxvl_work | :D | 22:16 |
| TheMuso | cbx33: What? You became a MOTU, and have never uploaded anything till now? | 22:16 |
| nxvl_work | heh | 22:16 |
| nxvl_work | really it is | 22:16 |
| nxvl_work | :P | 22:16 |
| Ubulette | ? | 22:17 |
| Kmos | TheMuso: done by himself :) | 22:17 |
| vemon | i though only motus have upload rights? | 22:17 |
| vemon | besides uploading to revu | 22:17 |
| cbx33 | TheMuso, yup | 22:17 |
| cbx33 | funny eh | 22:17 |
| TheMuso | Kmos: Yes, I know that. | 22:17 |
| cbx33 | ogra did a lot of my uploading | 22:17 |
| cbx33 | cos most of my stuff was going to main | 22:17 |
| nxvl_work | Ubulette: its almos 5:17 pm here, my brain is turned upside | 22:17 |
| TheMuso | cbx33: Yeah it is kinda funny. | 22:17 |
| nxvl_work | i need to sleep | 22:18 |
| cbx33 | but it was great to hit that button | 22:18 |
| cbx33 | ;) | 22:18 |
| TheMuso | cbx33: Was it a package update you uploaded, or a new package? | 22:18 |
| cbx33 | new | 22:18 |
| Ubulette | nxvl_work, np, i know the feeling far too much | 22:18 |
| TheMuso | Well don't forget to announce it to ubuntu-motu@lists.ubuntu.com | 22:18 |
| cbx33 | oh | 22:18 |
| cbx33 | i do? | 22:18 |
| TheMuso | cbx33: Just a copy of the email you got from the ubuntu archive system is fine | 22:18 |
| cbx33 | oh i see | 22:18 |
| TheMuso | it allows us to track new package uploads more easily | 22:19 |
| cbx33 | alright | 22:19 |
| cbx33 | will do that tomorrow | 22:19 |
| TheMuso | Ok. | 22:19 |
| nxvl_work | well, back to the conversation before | 22:19 |

| emgent | persia, ping | 23:18 |

| persia | (and I don't play virtual table tennis) | 23:30 |
| emgent | persia, done. my debdiff it's attached :P | 23:30 |
| emgent | heheh ;) | 23:30 |

| the_belgain | hi - a maybe slightly OT question: I've accidentally uploaded a package to my PPA which doesn't have any ~ppaversion number appended to it. is there any way for me to remove it from the archive in order to be able to upload multiple version of the package? | 23:53 |
| the_belgain | i don't want to just bump the main version number, because that would prevent people from being able to just remove the PPA if the package was added to the main ubuntu repo | 23:54 |
| Flare183 | the_belgain: as far as i know you can't remove a package from your ppa yet... | 23:54 |
| the_belgain | that's quite problematic, because making a single mistake can basically mean that your archive becomes somewhat unusable | 23:55 |
| Fujitsu | the_belgain: With the next release of Launchpad, you should be able to delete packages easily. For now, you can ask a question on the launchpad project on Launchpad to have it removed. | 23:57 |
| emgent | Fujitsu, heya! | 23:57 |
| Fujitsu | emgent: Hi, about to run off again (I'm on holiday with limited Internet connectivity). | 23:57 |
| the_belgain | Fujitsu: I tried that, but the IRC channel didn't seem to be very responsive. oh wel | 23:57 |
| emgent | Fujitsu, hehe np :) | 23:58 |
| Fujitsu | the_belgain: You obviously didn't - ask a question on the launchpad project on Launchpad, not on IRC. | 23:58 |
| Laibsch | Hi, I am fairly new to packaging for ubuntu. I wonder what the recommended procedure is for creating a package from the information for a debian package (not an official debian package) | 23:59 |
