Seveaskeisangi, this channel is for development *of* ubuntu, not *on* ubuntu00:00
keisangii tryed other distro, like zenwalk-linux (slackware based distro) and everything seems works00:00
keisangiSeveas, yes, but i wont get any help on #ubuntu channel about this particular problem ..00:01
Seveaskeisangi, that doesn't make this a support channel00:01
keisangii don't know where to ask00:01
Seveas!support | keisangi00:02
ubotukeisangi: the official ubuntu support channel is #ubuntu. Also see http://ubuntu.com/support and http://ubuntuforums.org00:02
keisangiSeveas, ok, could you point me to a support channel where i could discuss eclipse , java and ubuntu ?00:02
Seveas#eclipse and #ubuntu come to mind :)00:02
keisangithey will tell me to go to #lwjgl00:02
keisangi#Eclipse will tell me to see with #ubuntu00:03

pitti\sh_away: that looks like a gnome-vfs message, not sure where it comes from; maybe check with seb128?08:50
=== \sh_away is now known as \sh
\shseb128, the problem from yesterday was a result of nautilius -> preferences -> media_automount_open = True (gconf setting) this happens with all devices which are just mounted but not handled as special devices...09:25
seb128you told me that this key was set to wrong yesterday?09:26
pittimathiaz: your patch in bug 52866 looks ok; can you please upload?09:27
ubotuLaunchpad bug 52866 in php5 "SOAP response for associative array is different on ubuntu 6.06" [Undecided,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/5286609:27
\shseb128, nope...I never said this...I was thinking something strange happens...and I tracked it down to this setting...set this key to False everything is fine...and only the symbols are on the desktop (despite the fact that some of them are staying on the desktop after unmount)09:27
seb128I told you to change the key in the preferences and you said you already did that and that didn't change anything09:28
\shseb128, this was the setting in System -> Preferences -> Removable Media which I disabled...but this didn't help...I think the preferences dialog comes from gnome-volume-manager or whatever we use, but not from nautilus09:29
\shseb128, the real solution is to set the nautilus gconf key to false...09:30
loolslomo: Thanks!09:31
\shseb128, as far as I could track down the problem (reading gnome-volume-manager source and nautilus-application.c) those two are involved when mounting devices. gvm handles special devices like usb/ipod/cd/dvds but not e.g. /dev/sdb3 when it's mounted manually...09:32
seb128\sh: the key you describe is the one I told you to change yesterday09:33
seb128\sh: it's the browse media when inserted in the nautilus preferences, media tab dialog09:33
seb128\sh: I just verified it does change the gconf key09:34
\shseb128, well then I didn't understand you correctly...I meant the global preferences for media09:34
seb128alright09:34
seb128but I wrote that it was the nautilus dialog09:35
\shseb128, then I didn't see "nautilus" ... after so many windows popping up09:36

davmor2pitti:  would gvfs cause gnome-mount to have issues?10:41
seb128davmor2: why should it?10:42
pittidavmor2: unknown ATM, but it worked fine for me yesterday10:42
pittidavmor2: --verbose?10:42
seb128davmor2: gnome-mount doesn't use gvfs yet10:42
davmor2I've updated my main system to hardy as I no longer need a stable system so I can play10:42
davmor2I was putting my favourite cd's back into rhythmbox and gnome mount kept giving me errors bug 18574810:44
ubotuLaunchpad bug 185748 in gnome-mount "gvfs/gnome mount issues with stability" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/18574810:44
davmor2I took a screenshot it's on there10:44
davmor2also the cd would lock up about 3 cd's in10:45
seb128davmor2: how a cd can lock up 3 cds?10:46
seb128I'm not sure I understand what you describe10:46
davmor2sorry the thirdish cd would lock up10:46
seb128no idea about that10:47
seb128is that data or audio CDs?10:47
davmor2rhythmbox converts the cds to ogg on the thirdish cd it would just stop at some point I would have to restart the system to free up the disc again10:47
seb128davmor2: doesn't seem to be a gnome-mount issue, rather a nautilus one10:48
davmor2seb128:  It also happens with my usb pen.  so much of the data copied across fine then it just stopped.  This didn't happen on my test system when gnome-vfs was inplace.10:50
davmor2locking up that is (sorry not clear again)10:51
seb128looks like a gvfs or nautilus bug10:51
seb128do you get the issue using gvfs-copy ?10:51
davmor2I had no issues using sftp in nautilus to copy the files I wanted off my other machine rather than trying from the usb10:52
davmor2seb128:  How and I'll try it?10:58
TheMusoI'm triaging casper bugs, and I have found one that referrs to xforcevesa. This doesn't appear anywhere in casper, so what package takes note of this kernel command-line flag?10:59
seb128davmor2: dunno what you are copying, but it's basically "gvfs-copy source destination"11:00
davmor2seb128: np will try now11:00
pitti\sh: please use standard requestsync in the future, and be more accurate about the source (dcc isn't in unstable, etc.)11:17
\shpitti, ah well, you commented on it, that it was moved in the past11:18
davmor2seb128: gvfs-copy command not found ?11:19
\shpitti, and that you wanted to move it into multiverse11:19
seb128davmor2: sudo apt-get install gvfs-bin11:19
warp10dialign-t-doc is in Debian non-free because documentation is missing source. It must be synced in multiverse, right?11:20
pitti\sh: done that, and synced11:21
Kmoswarp10: if section on control is non-free, it automatically goes to multiverse :)11:21
\shpitti, thx :)11:21
davmor2seb128: right installed but it can't recursively copy a directory11:21
pittiKmos: ('automatically' is not quite true...)11:21
pittiwarp10: that doesn't sound quite right11:22
pittiwarp10: it would be in non-free because the doc has a non-free license11:22
pittiwarp10: if it was gpl with no source, then it is unredistributable and can't go to non-free/multiverse either11:22
Kmospitti: the sync script doesn't check for non-free and contrib ? i think it did =)11:23
warp10pitti: well, according to debian/copyright it is released under LGPL, but source is not available. I check it with debian maintainer too, his answer was: "dialign-t-doc is in non-free because it is missing sources"11:23
pittiwarp10: that's wrong then, and it should be removed from Debian11:24
davmor2seb128: I'm trying the individual tar.gz file it seems to lock up on instead11:24
seb128what do you mean?11:25
warp10pitti: wow, too bad! Well, I'll avoid to request a sync in Ubuntu, therefore11:25
persiapitti: pdfedit works too :)11:25
pittipersia: not the prefered form of modification11:26
persiapitti: I disagree that that is always the case, having used pdfedit to generate new files in the past, but suspect you are correct in this case (and the vast majority of others).11:26
davmor2seb128: I have a folder full of tar.gz files that I backed up (evolution etc)  I can't copy the folder so I'm coping the file where it seems to lock up.11:27
seb128davmor2: "lock up" = hang?11:29
davmor2yes sorry11:30
seb128use the --progress option maybe to know if it's copying11:30
davmor2seb128: It's hanging again and I can't access the pen drive now11:31

davmor2seb128: no problem12:09
persiaaquo: No.12:09

aquoif i want to use aptitude for package management this interferes with the apt-get that is used in periodic scripts ...12:10
aquo(unattended-updates, cronjobs)12:10
persiaaquo: The difference isn't with "update", but with "upgrade".  For details, check the source, or search for some of the early documentation on why aptitude.  This isn't really the forum for longer discussion of the differences.12:13
aquopersia: so apt-get update and aptitude update produce the same system state?12:14
aquoi know that there are differences with the recommends on so on with aptitude ...12:15
persiaaquo: SImilar enough to not be worth discussion.  I don't remember if it is the same.12:15
aquoi am just curious if the use of apt-get update in cronjobs needs to be replaced by aptitude update if i want to use aptitude.12:15
unopaquo, in my opinion it is you can use anything you like apt-get, aptitude, dselect, dpkg, synaptic -- they all work on top of APT, and it shouldnt matter what you use12:16

mvounop: yes, apt-get update/aptitude update behave the same12:25
aquounop: no problem, i am just curious on how package management works12:25
aquomvo: so they are interchangeable, and i don't have to run aptitude update if i have the cronjobs that are included in apt12:26
unopaquo, well, i used to think aptitude was a better apt-get (atleast when i was with debian) but with ubuntu, the line that seperates the two is somewhat different, essentially they serve the same purpose and are quite interchangeable12:27
mvoaquo: yes12:27
mvounop: the only real difference left is that aptitude has a nice ui, a different problem resolver (and in ubuntu that it installs recommends-by-default)12:28
aquothank you for that information.12:30
unopmvo, yes, and autoremoves unneeded depenencies when a package is removed (something like apt-get autoremove ..)12:32

mbieblasac_the_2nd: while at it, we had a short discussion on #pkg-utopia, about starting dbus earlier and stopping it later.12:47
mbieblSomething around S10/K90.12:47
asac_the_2ndi have no problem with that ... we start nm at 26 or something for now ...12:47
mbieblThis would make it also possible to stop NM later during shutdown.12:47
asac_the_2ndmbiebl: you need to bump soname12:48
asac_the_2ndmbiebl: hmm ... now that i think about it ... do we need to stop it at all?12:48
mbieblWell, think for the scripts in if-*.d/12:49
mbieblThey wouldn't be run otherwise.12:50
mbieblAnother problem, that is currently nagging me, is how to handle network-manager upgrades.12:51
aquombiebl: will the new NM include features for running user-independent?12:51
asac_the_2ndaquo: when its finished ... yes.12:51
asac_the_2ndmbiebl: in which regards? restarting the applet?12:51
mbieblNo, the problem that the internet connection is dropped when you restart NM.12:52
asac_the_2ndmbiebl: yes ... that will change once we have system connection support12:52
mbieblIs a bit unfortunate if you upgrade a system via SSH ;-)12:52
mbieblasac_the_2nd: don't think so.12:52
mbieblNM will still tear down the connection on stop afaik.12:53
asac_the_2ndmbiebl: hmm ... i haven't looked into lately, but we should really take care that this is not done anymore for system configured connections ... same for "tearing down at startup"12:54
asac_the_2ndmbiebl: have you asked dan williams about his vision for this? fedora must have the same issue12:54
mbieblWhat do you mean by that?12:54
mbieblasac_the_2nd: fedora never restarts daemons on package upgrades ;-)12:55
asac_the_2ndmbiebl: network manager does not only not stop interfaces if you stop it ... it also brings them down and up again if you start it.12:55
mbieblYou mean it tears down a connection configured via ifupdown?12:56
asac_the_2ndmbiebl: yes it would ... but we don't manage those through nm in ubuntu (to workaround  this issue)12:57
mbieblSo, you want to have ifupdown establish a connection and then hand it over seamlessly to NM or what?12:58
asac_the_2ndmbiebl: but thats independent from ifupdown ... it will always bring all interfaces down it wants to manage on startup. to fix that it should introspect the route and interface state and if that matches the system connnection setting do not bring it down ... anyway, i somehow have the feeling that the multiple device support will make this go away.12:58
asac_the_2ndmbiebl: no ... i want ifupdown to conflict network manager ... once it supports multiple devices12:59
asac_the_2ndfor now its just a workaround so people can still roam even though they have configured their wired connection through /etc/network/interfaces.12:59
mbieblHm, ok.13:00
asac_the_2ndmbiebl: but the problem you want to fix (not down interfaces when stopping) is tightly coupled with the problem that it tears down interfaces at startup13:00
aquoasac_the_2nd: do you have use cases that describe the update of NM?13:00
mbieblBut if you want to conflict with ifupdown anyway, why use the rather hard to manage /e/n/i format for configuring the system-settings daemon?13:00
asac_the_2ndmbiebl: for legacy reasons13:01
asac_the_2ndpeople should just seamlessly use their old configuration13:01
mbieblOne problem I see is, that the ifupdown format is quite flexible.13:01
asac_the_2ndand because its "the debian way" to configure things ... why to chage that?13:01
mbieblaliased interfaces13:02
mbieblpre/post up/down actions.13:02
asac_the_2ndmbiebl: yes ... we won't be able to have a perfect mapping ... but covering 90% of the use-cases in the begginning should be enough imo.13:02
mbieblHow do you want to map that information to NM?13:02
asac_the_2ndhe rest is unlikely to use nm anyway13:02
asac_the_2ndmbiebl: which information?13:03
asac_the_2ndthe actions you refered to above?13:03
mbieblWell, just see the proposed configuration for wpa_supplicant roaming?13:03
mbieblwhich uses virtual devices names.13:03
mbiebland id_str in wpa_supplicant.conf13:04
mbieblor mappings in /e/n/i13:05
mbieblstuff like.13:05
asac_the_2ndmbiebl: did you take a look at the eniplugin.c file? ... thats a pretty basic approach still, but we can improve that. you have example config for that use-case?13:05
mbieblasac_the_2nd: here is an example http://pastebin.ca/87198813:06
asac_the_2ndmbiebl: ok i am pushing the latest now to a different branch ... given that the other is still locked13:06
* asac_the_2nd looking13:06
asac_the_2ndmbiebl: do you have the wpasupplicant file as well?13:07
mbieblwpa_supplicant.conf contains different configurations which have an id_str, which matches the virtual device name.13:07
asac_the_2ndmbiebl: is that a debian specific thing?13:08
asac_the_2ndor upstream wpasupp?13:08
mbieblhttp://pastebin.ca/87199213:08
mbiebl/usr/share/doc/wpasupplicant/README.modes.gz13:09
mbieblRead roaming mode13:09
asac_the_2ndhmmm ... afaict it should map pretty well to the new configuration framework in nm13:09
mbieblNot Debian specific.13:09
asac_the_2ndthe parse for that probably should be distribution independent though13:10
mbieblasac_the_2nd: lemme check the sources, if id_str is really upstream or a Debian/Ubuntu specific patch13:11
asac_the_2ndmbiebl: maybe we should write down the open points somewhere?13:11
mbieblAgreed.13:11
asac_the_2ndgood13:12
mbieblwpa_supplicant/config_ssid.h13:13
mbieblid_str seems to be upstream supported. I'm not sure if other distros use a similar mechanism though to implement a roaming mode.13:13
asac_the_2ndso the name in the iface line in interfaces has to mach that id_str right?13:14
mbieblThat's how it's implemented in Debian, yes.13:14
asac_the_2ndsorry ... need to eat ... bbl13:16
mbieblOk, I'll write an email to you this weekend, with all the different points I have in mind.13:16
mbieblTogether with your input, we then should add this info to a wiki or something.13:17
ScottK2pitti: It's an extreme form of security by obscurity.13:23
ScottK2pitti: (stepic)13:24
ScottK2I think it's an interesting concept.13:24
ScottK2pitti: While you're doing archive stuff (hope you still are), I'd appreciate it if you would binary new libetpan in dapper-backports.13:25
ScottK2That's the last manual step in the clamav-0.92 transition in backports for dapper.13:26

articpenguin3800what version kernel does hardy use13:32
zul2.6.2413:32
articpenguin3800the rc based of 2.6.24 or the stable one that got released yeterday13:33
zulright now its rc8 but its being rebased to 2.6.2413:33
articpenguin3800does that mean hardy fiesty edgy and dapper will get 2.6.24 or are there kernels frozen13:35
articpenguin3800i meant gutsy not hardy13:35
amitk_articpenguin3800: Only Hardy gets a 2.6.24 kernel13:35
articpenguin3800ok13:35
asac_the_2ndmbiebl: great .... then lets get things going :)13:36
Kmoszul: rc8 is over.. it's now 2.6.24 final :)13:37
mbieblasac_the_2nd: nice talking to you!13:37
asac_the_2ndmbiebl: i pushed the latest: https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~asac/network-manager/main.eni113:37
mbieblasac_the_2nd: about the soname bump: this should be done upstream imho.13:37
asac_the_2ndyes ... thats why i committed it to that branch13:38
mbieblasac_the_2nd: will you contact dcbw about that?13:38
HobbseeKmos: dude, learn to read please.13:38
asac_the_2ndyes ... i will send it upstream. we just needed it now to package it decently13:39
asac_the_2ndi think this weekend or latest on monday13:39
HobbseeKmos: if you'd actually read the changelog, and read what zul said, you'd know that ubuntu's kernel is currently at rc8.13:39
mbieblasac_the_2nd: great13:39
ScottK2pitti: Thank you.13:40
KmosHobbsee: i found it :)13:40
KmosHobbsee: lagged.. 30 secs13:40
* Kmos jesus!13:40
HobbseeKmos: how is your lag relevant?  you clearly responded to zul said, and the new linux metapackage was published hours ago.13:43
* Hobbsee checks the email about Kmos13:48
* Hobbsee notes that adding stuff in here is classed as contributing to ubuntu development, which is one of the things that kmos has been asked not to do.13:50
* Hobbsee therefore will prohibit him from doing so.13:50
mbieblasac_the_2nd: The debian/ directory in 0.7 still contains a lot of 0.6 cruft (nm-vpn-properties, which is no longer in NM, outdated copyright files) etc.13:52
mbieblasac_the_2nd: I'll work on the debian/ directory during this weekend and will do a thorough cleanup.13:52
asac_the_2ndmbiebl: are you talking about the ubuntu package?13:53
mbieblyeah.13:53
ograHobbsee, is that really necessary ?13:54
mbieblWhat I wanted to propose is, that I'll look after debian/ and you can concentrate on the eni plugin.13:54
asac_the_2ndmbiebl: yes, there might be cruft left. it was an initial release for evaluation here13:54
mbieblI'd like to get the contents in debian/ in sync again as best as possible.13:55
asac_the_2ndmbiebl: great .... i have two more commits here13:55
Hobbseeogra: as far as i know, not contributing to ubuntu development actually meant just that13:55
Hobbseewhich includes talking crap in channel13:55
* ogra heavily disagrees13:56
asac_the_2ndmbiebl: i am fine with sharing workload that way.13:56
Hobbseeogra: i can quiet him if you wish13:56
ograHobbsee, obviously you manage to ignore other people that talk crap ...13:56
mbieblasac_the_2nd: are you fine to name the init script /etc/init.d/network-manager and /etc/init.d/network-manager-dispatcher?13:57
pittiHobbsee: just relax a little...13:57
ScottK2ogra: Other people haven't been told by MOTU Council to desist.13:57
mbieblThat's how I had already called them in the Debian 0.6.5-1 package?13:57
Hobbseeogra: true, but they don't talk crap for months, and they don't get a mandate from the MOTU council to stop contributing to ubuntu development.13:58
ograScottK, thats not relevant here13:58
Hobbseeogra: how is it not relevant?13:58
Hobbseeogra: it's entirely based off that decision13:58
ograbeing rude and kicking people *is* relevant though13:58
asac_the_2ndmbiebl: i would be fine with that ... however the upstream tree ships NetworkManager (no Dispatcher though) ... anyway, whatever we do, we should submit it upstream13:59
Hobbseeogra: sorry, i'm not seeing where i'm being rude - i'm seeing where i'm saying a statement of fact.13:59
mbieblWell, init scripts is a thing I usually don't submit upstream.13:59
mbieblAs every distros uses their own anyways.13:59
asac_the_2ndyeah .... then we should ask for removal :)14:00
mbieblasac_the_2nd: ;-)14:00
dholbachthat kernel comment was probably not right, but it was definitely ignorable14:01
Hobbseedholbach: am i wrong in thinking that "being asked not to contribute" and contributing, correctly or not, still should be forbidden?14:02
lifelesswe've kicked diots from the channel before14:02
ScottK2dholbach: Sure.  It's all ignorable, but if the MC decision isn't going to be enforced, what value does it have.14:02
Hobbseedholbach: last i checked, doing what you say is actually a good thing14:03
dholbachit's not all black and white, is it?14:03
dholbachhe did not file a sync request or anything, just offered a comment to a discussion14:03
ScottK2dholbach: The MC's decision seemed to draw a pretty clear line.  On this channel you are either contributing to Ubuntu development or off topic.14:04
lifelessdholbach: because its not on malone its not disruptive?  That seems to be what you are saying14:04
dholbachsorry, clicked on the wrong button14:04
Hobbsee[01:03] <dholbach> it's not all black and white, is it?14:04
Hobbsee[01:03] <dholbach> he did not file a sync request or anything, just offered a comment to a discussion14:04
Hobbsee[01:04] <ScottK2> dholbach: The MC's decision seemed to draw a pretty clear line.  On this channel you are either contributing to Ubuntu development or off topic.14:04
Hobbsee[01:04] <lifeless> dholbach: because its not on malone its not disruptive?  That seems to be what you are saying14:04
Hobbseedholbach: being asked not to contribute to ubuntu development, then talking on an ubuntu development, giving incorrect info, even worse...i'm not sure how that *isn't* black and white14:05
ChipzzScottK2: I would disagree with that assertment... I'm not an ubuntu developer, I just lurk here, sometimes commenting when something interesting passes or if I have an opinion I want to add14:06
ScottK2Chipzz: And those comments are part of ubuntu development and welcome.14:06
Hobbseedholbach: btw, i would have thought that filing bugs was also ubuntu development - is this not the case?  kmos doesn't appear to think so.14:07
dholbachlifeless: no that's not what I said - IRC behaviour can be very disruptive14:07
dholbachlifeless: I just thought that his comment did not warrant to ban him from the channel - and so thought 5 people who directly informed me of what happened (I wasn't around when it happened14:07
ChipzzHobbsee: I would say that depends; for example, sync requests, which kmos has fucked up repeatedly in the past, may be considered development, whereas reporting a bug may not?14:08
HobbseeChipzz: i would have thought any triaging other people's bugs definetly classed as development.14:08
Chipzzdholbach: except it wasn't just that comment; the ban was an accumulation of frustration over Kmos during the last couple of months14:08
lifelessit seems to me that either:14:08
* calc stopped going to #ubuntu after seeing what qualifies for a ban there14:09
lifelesskmos should be banned from this channel permanently (because we have banned him by MOTU council fiat)14:09
lifelessOR14:09
Hobbseecalc: yeah.  strict rules, for a 1200 person channel, i'm afraid :(14:10
Hobbseecalc: there's no real other way to do it, apart from a channel split14:10
lifelesskmos should be kicked anytime he diverts discussion (with a note that "you are being distruptive").14:10
lifelessI think that Hobbsee's kick was a little odd because the specific behaviour wasn't noted (but thats why a permanent ban makes sense to me)14:11
TheMusolifeless: IMO the latter is probably more appropriate.14:11
ScottK2Either way the question is about if he should be let back on, not if the kick was correct.14:11
lifelessI'll note that there is an ongoing cost with kicking every time kmos is out of line: its his persistent behaviour of being out of line that lead to the ban14:11
Hobbseelifeless: true - it was only in the statements directly above, not in the kick message.14:11
Hobbseewhich was partially due to lazyness14:12
ScottK2And the MC decision was made after he was given chances to reform.14:12
lifelessHobbsee: well, it can be percieved as hostility/rudeness14:12
lifelessHobbsee: not saying I percieved it that way though14:12
Hobbseelifeless: so, for the next time, i'll remember to set a ban, then to use /remove.14:12
Hobbseelifeless: kmos has, unfortunately, proved that he will not reform.  repeatedly.  i don't see the second option as being viable, based on how many ops there are in channel14:14
lifelessHobbsee: I suggest mailing the list and suggesting that the appropriate follow through on the motu council decision is to set bans across ubuntu-dev*14:14
ChipzzHobbsee: while I agree with banning kmos, I think lazyness can be excused at times; for example when something is being discussed, and just asking would not break the flow of the conversation (ie the person having to look it up not being to participate in the discussion)14:14
lifelessand kick and ban from the lists14:14
* persia advocates muting over banning, as channel and list archives are public anyway: no reason to limit realtime vs. delayed access14:15
Hobbseelifeless: i asked if that should happen if he violated his conditions, and got no reply.  at some point, you need to take action if no one else will.14:16
HobbseeFWIW, it's now a mute, not a ban14:16
lifelessHobbsee: well, in which case send a mail to the relevant list saying its been done :)14:16
lifelesssilence is permission as they say14:16
Hobbseelifeless: oh, sure, i'll be doing that.  but i figured that it might be worth dealing with the fires from here first.14:17
lifeless;)14:17
* Hobbsee helps put out a spot fire in #ubuntu14:19
lifelessHobbsee: oh, also - for your piece of mind, do what I did to sven many months go: '/ignore' :)14:19
Hobbseelifeless: forbidden for irc operators, i'm afraid :(14:19
Hobbseelifeless: by policy14:19
lifelessHobbsee: thats a good reason not to be op:)14:20
Hobbseelifeless: well, i avoided getting on the council :)14:20
HobbseeChipzz: true14:21

jkt|afternoon, folks15:12
jkt|could you please tell me what sources are used for the http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/utils/kphotoalbum-kde4 package?15:12
jkt|I'm wondering because we haven't released the kde4 version yet15:13
calcjkt|: i don't know myself but kde packagers typically get packages before other people, at least they did when i was the maintainer for Debian15:13
james_wjkt|,  https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/hardy/+source/kphotoalbum-kde4/4.0.0-0ubuntu115:14
calcjkt|: if you aren't already on it you may want to get someone to add you to the kde packagers list (assuming you package for gentoo)15:14
jkt|let me rephrase it -- we do have code in svn, but it isn't of production quality and we haven't asked packagers to package it15:15
jkt|I'm one of upstream devs in kphotoalbum15:15
calcjkt|: oh that is interesting then :) /me points at Riddell15:15
calcjkt|: he might know15:15
jkt|calc: thanks, I'll ask him15:15
calchmm actually nixternal uploaded it from the changelog so he would know more than Riddell15:16
james_wjkt|, it is nixternal's name in the package15:16
jkt|nixternal: could you please clarify how you managed to release kphotoalbum-4.0.0 while we (its upstream) haven't tagged it yet? :)15:16
calcjkt|: Riddell does most of the kde stuff but in this particular case nixternal uploaded the package15:16
james_wjkt|, it is not unusual to package svn snapshots, however it is unusual to package it as a version that hasn't been released.15:17
jkt|james_w: yep, if it was marked as a snapshot, I wouldn't be here :)15:17
jkt|thanks for you help, let's wait for him15:17
calcyea it was packaged as 4.0.0-0ubuntu1 which would imply it was final instead of something like 4.0.0~betaFoo-0ubuntu115:18

StevenKexarkun: Perhaps the Python 2.5 source package has patches applied before building, listed in debian/patches?15:31
exarkunHmm.  There's a bunch of files in that directory, yea.  I'm not extremely familiar with how patches work inside Ubuntu packages.  I applied the .diff that came with "apt-get source ...".  Some hunks of it applied, others didn't.  I didn't think to look for patches elsewhere, too.15:33
asac_the_2ndslangasek: yes ... mono gecko binding is the only thing left in main that i have to create a patch for to use xulrunner-1.9-dev15:38

\shpitti, that's what I though we do :) if this is finished, we can get rid of octave2.1 and octave2.9 :)17:02
bddebianpitti: Well apparently upstream has a new one for 8.3 but it's beta so I'm still unsure what to do with it.  Package the beta for 8.3 or leave 8.2 and try to fix it somehow.17:03
pittibddebian: you can upload the one with 8.3beta to experimental17:04
bddebianHmm, OK, I'll check on that, thanks17:05

nixternaljkt|: kphotoalbum was a sync, I didn't upload it17:45
Hobbseenixternal: you'll get blamed anyway17:47
nixternalso that means that Debian had it first and all I did was request for it to be sync'd17:47
nixternalI know :p17:47
nixternalI have it tattooed on my forhead17:47
\shnixternal, lol17:48
\shnixternal, didn't you know, even when you are the one who requested a sync, you are the one to blame...;)17:49
nixternalnah, it is a valid question...but I do remember seeing kphotoalbum-kde4 in ktown after tagging17:50
nixternaljkt|: kphotoalbum is still in ktown stable/4.0.0/src/extragear with a modification date of 2008-01-0417:52
snikkerwhen i run "ps2pdf file.ps file.pdf", i've got this error: "Bus error". this appen only from today. can you help me?18:06
\shsnikker, the last update was from the 23rd of Jan...18:10
\shsnikker, try this: apt-get --reinstall ghostscript18:11
\shsnikker, it works for me here...as mhb told you in #kubuntu-devel, thx :)18:12
Riddellnixternal: I've discussed this with him18:13
Riddellnixternal: it was a mis-communication with extragear admins18:13
nixternalroger dodger, that is what I figured18:13
nixternalactually I was wrong about the sync, I was thinking that because I just did the kphotoalbum sync of 3.1.0...got nervous for a second thinking I blasted the KDE 3 version with the KDE 4 version18:15
snikker\sh: i've reinstalled ghostscript but i've got the same error... what could be the problem?18:26
\shdunno...please file a bug with strace ps2pdf <.ps> <.pdf> on launchpad :)18:26
snikker\sh: ok thanks :)18:27
snikker\sh: solved with strace. i've reinstalled "libgs8" and now it work again! thank you! :-)18:37
\shsnikker, so that's what I thought...you hit by something during the install (mostly your hd cache had a hickup or so...)I had it once in a while, when I was compiling heavy stuff with a lot of swapping and trying to install new packages at the same time :)18:39
marcin_anthi all so called "developers"18:44
marcin_antI know that this what I am going to tell will be rude and you can ban me18:45
\shhmm? what'll come now?18:46
marcin_antbut I just need to tell you guys that because of your *&^*&^*&^*&^ (put some ugly words here)18:46
thomi'm hoping this is good. it's taking long enough18:46
marcin_antugly upgrade procedure - from feisty to gutsy I have to go to my car and drive 120km18:46
marcin_antonly because after upgrade eth0 in my server is now eth2 and I need to go there because I have no remote access18:47
=== fabbione is now known as thegodfather
marcin_antthank you guys, thank you very much :(18:47
Chipzznot as good as I expected :P18:47
robertjmeh, does suck though18:48
thomwell, that sounds like you killed your iftab which is written by the installer to avoid exactly this issue18:48
Chipzzmarcin_ant: try not using networkmanager on a server?18:48
\shmarcin_ant, well...the problem is not the upgrade...the problem is not having an Remote Insight Board like ilO or eRIC18:48
marcin_antnot to mention that aliases in /network/interfaces are broken too18:48
BenderUnit22Running a server without remote access, how did you manage to upgrade it from Feisty to Gutsy?18:48
BenderUnit22I must be overlooking something obvious. :/18:48
marcin_antChipzz: I don't use network manager18:48
ChipzzBenderUnit22: he means "remote hands"18:48
ChipzzBenderUnit22: which is another word for "someone to go push the reset-button" :P18:49
BenderUnit22If he has that, surely he wouldn't have to drive there to have it fixed?18:49
marcin_antChipzz: I had pretty nice /etc/network/interfaces but now after reboot eth0 is eth2 and I my ssh session is lost18:50
=== Mydoom666 is now known as Mydoom`Miam
Chipzzmarcin_ant: you should never have done a kernel upgrade from remote location anyway18:50
\shmarcin_ant, you should think about a cheap remote insight board, or a little cyclades terminal switch where you can attach your serial port for accessing grub during bootup to rename your eth2 to eth0 ,-)18:51
marcin_antsure but maybe you guys could think about fixing udev (am I right that it's udev fault?) ???18:52
Chipzzmarcin_ant: upgrading a kernel (certainly between versions, ie not minor ubuntu versions) should always be done at the console18:52
Chipzzmarcin_ant: if you don't know that... no offence, but then you're a crappy sysadmin18:52
thommarcin_ant: see earlier. the installer creates a file to ensure this doesn't happen18:52
thom /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules18:53
marcin_antand what guys about this: SIOCSIFFLAGS: Cannot assign requested address18:54
marcin_antSIOCADDRT: No such process18:54
marcin_antFailed to bring up eth2:1. ?18:54
elmoChipzz: err, I'm not sure that's a helpful attitude18:55
thomthis is way offtopic for here anyway18:55
elmoChipzz: I've done hundreds of remote kernel upgrades; sometimes there's no choice.  and I don't think it makes me a crappy sysadmin18:55
elmobut thom's right too, this is offtopic18:56
marcin_antChipzz: do you think that I always have time to ride from place to place just to push some buttons?18:56

* thom notes he's done about 20 edgy->gutsy upgrades in the last month remotely without issue *shrug*19:02
marcin_antthom: I upgraded from dapper to feisty without issues too but now.. no luck unfortunately19:03
ScottKmarcin_ant: You did a dapper direct to feisty upgrade on this box before?19:04
marcin_antScottK: yes!19:06
ScottKmarcin_ant: Gut feel tells me that's why.19:06
marcin_antScottK: ?19:06
ScottKThe sysv init to upstart transition happened in Edgy and so the odds of something weird happening if you skip that step on non-zero.19:07
ScottKAlso the switch to UUID based device numbering was in Edgy too.19:07
ScottKDapper -> Feisty is unsupported and untested.19:07
ScottKI know from my own experimentation that there can be TTY troubles (there's a bug on that somewhere).19:08
marcin_antScottK: so are you going to tell me that I should install gutsy from cd and it should resolve some problems?19:08
ScottKThat's what I would do since you've upgraded through an untested and unsupported path.  We know from the Dapper -> Hardy upgrade testing that's going on now that there are issues.19:09
ScottKWe certainly don't know what they all are.19:09
ScottKI'd suggest you've got your system into an unknown state and there's no good way back.  It might be fine, but if it's a long drive, you probably don't want to take that risk.19:10
marcin_antScottK: well I have to go there anyway... So I could do some clean installation19:10
ScottKBetter one longer complete trip than having to go back in a week when something else weird happens.19:11
marcin_antScottK: well that's right - because problem with eth0->eth2 is one thing19:11
marcin_antScottK: but I also had this: SIOCSIFFLAGS: Cannot assign requested address19:11
marcin_antSIOCADDRT: No such process19:11
marcin_antFailed to bring up eth2:1.19:11
ScottKWho knows what else is hiding so far.19:11
ScottKJust nuke it and start over.19:11
marcin_antScottK: ehhhh clean installation + shorewall + dansguardian + squid + etc etc... guys - call me crappy sysadmin but how could you name distro "ubuntu-server" while it has such ugly network issues after upgrade?19:14
ScottKmarcin_ant: I've upgraded a lot of machines and never had such problems.  I think the problem is that you took a non-standard/untested path.19:15
marcin_antit should be "ubuntu-beta-notready-hazardous-server" :[19:15
marcin_antScottK: ??? I just upgrade from release to release... you call this non-standard?19:15
ScottKmarcin_ant: Maybe I misunderstood you then.19:16
ScottKmarcin_ant: I thought you said you upgraded direct from Dapper to Feisty, skipping Edgy.19:16
marcin_antScottK: I installed Edgy on this machine - then upgraded to Feisty without issue - and now from Feisty to Gutsy19:17
ScottKmarcin_ant: OK.  Then I take it back.  I completely misunderstood.19:18
ScottKI've done a bunch of Feisty/Gutsy upgrades, so I've no idea exactly what would be your problem.  Sorry for leaning on you about the wrong thing.19:18
marcin_antScottK: problem is that I don't know how to solve this too... :(19:19
marcin_antScottK: because I know that I don't have ssh connection now because of mess with eth[x]19:20
marcin_antScottK: but another thing is that I had virtual network interfaces that are broken now too19:20
marcin_antScottK: and I know how to fix problem with messed eth interfaces - but don't know why I cannot bring up eth2:1 and eth2:219:21
ScottKOnce you have local access you ought to be able to put it back to eth0.19:21
ScottKDunno what to tell you on that.19:21
marcin_antok guys I have to go19:24
marcin_antI know that you hate people like me... and I... almost understand ;)19:24
