jdongwell I'm packaging it04:15
jdongcharles_: hey, regarding transmission 1.02, why'd you guys decide to change mandir from $DATAROOTDIR/man to $PREFIX/man?20:06
jdongcharles_: for now I'm passing the correct mandir into configure, wondering if that's a bug or intentional20:07
charles_jdong: mandir isn't in any of the svn-level files. looks like it's added by auto* during configure or make distcheck20:12
jdongcharles_: yeah, I suspect auto* is doing it20:12
charles_nothing changed in the T repo to cause this20:12
jdongcharles_: diff ./configure --help output from 1.01 to 1.02; it's markedly changed20:12
charles_I did roll 1.02 on a different box though20:12
charles_an older one20:13
jdongcharles_: that could possibly cause it...20:13
jdongcharles_: yeah looking at the auto* related files, the diff between 1.01->1.02 is much greater than any previous point release20:13
charles_do you want me to roll a new tarball for you?20:14
jdongcharles_: that would be preferred; I don't think I'll be the only distro packager to complain about the /usr/man thing20:14
jdongmost systems don't even have or check /usr/man anymore20:14
charles_np20:15
charles_what's the svn revision number in libtransmission/version.h?20:16
jdong#define SVN_REVISION          "4798"20:17
charles_thanks20:17
jdongno, thank you :)20:17
charles_one checkin made since then is to remove the "Encoding=UTF-8" entry in transmission.desktop.in because it reportedly generates a warning20:18
jdongcharles_: cool, yeah, I'm in no hurry for the package, so feel free to squeeze in anything else you need to :)20:20
charles_rolling20:22
charles_as an aside, the Clutch developers were tickled to hear you're packaging Clutch20:23
jdongcharles_: :). That was probably one of the more challenging packages I've taken on20:23
charles_I think they're pretty squarely Apple people and didn't expect the Linux attention20:23
jdongcharles_: yeah, it seems that way, but clutch really caught my attention20:24
charles_it's pretty nice20:24
jdongcharles_: it's really beautiful and easy, not to mention Linux has nothign else to compete20:24
jdongtorrentflux uses an outdated engine20:24
jdongand everything else can't be set up headless easily20:24
jdongI'm fairly satisfied with my packaging of it, so now I await revu; I think it'll pass after one or two rounds.20:27
charles_hmm20:28
charles_this tarball's from a Fedora 8 box that was "yum updated"d < 24 hours ago but it still doesn't seem right20:29
charles_maybe it will make more sense to you though: http://www.rebelbase.com/~charles/transmission-1.02.tar.gz20:29
charles_if you say it's better I'll replace the transmission.bt.com tarball20:30
jdong  --mandir=DIR           man documentation [PREFIX/man]20:31
jdong:( still don't like that20:31
jdong  --mandir=DIR           man documentation [DATAROOTDIR/man]20:32
jdong^^^ that's from 1.0120:32
jdongwhich does it perfectly20:32
jdongas datarootdir is $PREFIX/share20:32
charles_hold on20:34
jdongI need to head out for a few minutes, I'll read scrollback when I return :)20:35
charles_*nod*20:35
charles_okay, I've found & fixed the problem20:49
charles_updated tarball at the usual place20:49
charles_http://download.m0k.org/transmission/files/transmission-1.02.tar.bz220:49
charles_xubuntu transmission packaging humor: http://transmission.pastebin.com/m5db1a87020:53
jdongcharles_: ok, new tarball looks nice; I'm sending it through a testbuild currently21:13
jdongcharles_: done and done, added to the sponsors queue :)21:17
charles_when is the heron freeze?21:22
charles_jdong: when is the heron freeze?21:23
jdongcharles_: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyReleaseSchedule21:26
jdongcharles_: the 14th of feb21:26
charles_thanks21:27
charles_there *may* be a small 1.03 before then...21:52
