samiHow come vim-full has been unsupported, or rather vim-common-gui, vim-runtime?00:38
Laibschwho can I bug about a nifty little program with nice packaging straight from the upstream source?00:39
Laibschhttps://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/14500700:39
ubotuLaunchpad bug 145007 in ubuntu "[needs-packaging] anki" [Wishlist,Triaged]00:39
jdongLaibsch: usually "nice packaging" from upstream is a trap ;-)00:41
Laibschjdong: What do you mean?00:41
LaibschI think the package is indeed nicely packaged00:41
LaibschAnd I am not upstream00:41
Laibschif that is what you might be hinting at00:42
jdongLaibsch: no no, I was making a half-serious half-joking remark based on my experience with natively debianized packages00:42
superm1they're usually a stepping stone, but dont cover everythign that needs to be covered00:42
LaibschI don't get it00:43
LaibschWhat is the best way to get this accepted?00:43
RAOFBy uploading a candidate package to revu, and waiting until after Hardy has been released.  We're in feature freeze now, so you'll need a good reason why this software should have an exception.00:44
jdongwhat RAOF said, a good first step is to get it onto REVU00:45
jdongbut a major deadline (Feature Freeze) has been missed so the next chance to upload into Ubuntu would be the Hardy+1 release00:45
tsmitheScottK, i've uploaded to mentors. and sent RFS's to debian-mentors@ and debian-multimedia@00:46
tsmitheand now, i'm going to bed :)00:46
LaibschCan somebody please add http://keyserver.ubuntu.com:11371/pks/lookup?search=0xB9D7E198&op=index to the REVU keys?00:47
FujitsuLaibsch: Add yourself to the ubuntu-universe-contributors group.00:48
LaibschFujitsu: Done three minutes ago00:48
FujitsuLaibsch: I'm syncing the keyring now.00:49
LaibschFujitsu: Cool, thanks00:49

=== kiko is now known as kiko-zzz
ScottKLaibsch: We are paste feature freeze and so not taking new packages for Hardy.01:03
LaibschScottK: I am not shooting for hardy01:04
Laibschor any particular release01:04
ScottKLaibsch: OK then.01:04
LaibschJust trying to get things moving01:04
ScottKFair enough, just didn't want you to end up disappointed.01:04
ScottKGreat.01:04
Laibschno worries01:05
jdong    Present rate       : 13693 mW01:05
jdongoh Hardy how much leaner you be :)01:05
jdongseems like it's down a watt from Gutsy without much change to my config...01:05
jdongnow to consider throttling my CPUs01:06
Laibschhow long  before I can recover my PWW and log in?01:06
LaibschPW01:06
FujitsuLaibsch: The sync just finished.01:13
LaibschNo REVU account for oe-devel@rolf.leggewie.biz exists yet.01:16
jdongLaibsch: probably uploaded too early01:18
Laibschwhat do you mean too early?01:18
LaibschI'd understate too late, but too early?01:18
LaibschI'll run dput again, I guess01:19
jdongLaibsch: too early means that the keyring hadn't finished syncing when your upload arrived01:20
jdonghence it doesn't know who you are.01:20
FujitsuLaibsch: I see a rejected anki upload.01:21
Laibschwhich is fixed by "dput -f revu *changes", right?01:21
Laibsch^^^ done01:21
FujitsuShould be.01:21
FujitsuSo I see.01:21
jdongrm *.upload01:22
Laibschwhat is the name of the hardy+1 release?01:23
LaibschI made the package for gutsy now, which is what I run01:23
Fujitsuhardy+1 hasn't been named.01:23
LaibschOK01:23
FujitsuHence it being referred to as hardy+101:23
LaibschWill I be able to get my login in a few minutes or does it usually take a bit longer01:24
LaibschI am about to go to sleep01:24
FujitsuShould be happening in about 6 minutes.01:24
LaibschI just learned from my ppa that the latest code does not build01:26
LaibschThe package now depends on sqlalchemy01:27
jdongwell you've got plenty of time to figure all that out :)01:27
=== macd_ is now known as macd
LaibschOK, so here it is http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?package=anki01:37
LaibschCan somebody tell me why http://launchpadlibrarian.net/12093167/buildlog_ubuntu-gutsy-i386.anki_0.9.2-0ubuntu1_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz does not fail due to unsatisfied build dependencies?01:41
LaibschIt really should since the version of python-sqlalchemy in gutsy is too old01:41
Laibschthe build fails later during compilations and it looks to me like python-sqlalchemy was never installed01:42
RAOFThat seems correct to me.  Do you actually have a build-depend on python-sqlalchemy?01:42
LaibschRAOF: Indeed, the build is correct01:44
LaibschIt looks like the package fails to declare the build dependency01:44
LaibschI was fooled by the runtime dependency declaration01:44
RAOFHeh.01:44
superm1Laibsch, see that's part of the reason why upstream's packaging isn't always reliable directly01:49
superm1little gotcha's like that :)01:49
LaserJockhi all!01:49
Laibschsuperm1: Well, it could be worse01:49
StevenKDear Firefox, please render pages.01:49
LaibschAnd the version has just been released01:49
superm1StevenK, nope01:49
RAOF...and because they ship a debian/ directory you need to repack the tarball, which is always annoying.01:49
superm1StevenK, especially not on ati hardware01:49
Laibsch0.4.2 built fine straight out of the box01:49
jdongLaibsch: building fine and meeting Ubuntu/Debian archive inclusion guidelines are often two very different things01:50
jdongthat combined with RAOF's comment about repacking comprise why I said earlier native debianized packages can be a trap01:50
StevenKsuperm1: This is Gutsy, not Hardy01:51
Laibschjdong: yes, I know about the difference between necessary and sufficient conditions01:51
LaibschI still prefer having the debian dir than having to recreate it all on my own01:52
LaibschI was/am unaware of the need to remove that debian dir from the source01:52
LaserJockhi Barry01:57
bddebianHeya gang01:57
bddebianHi Jordan01:58
bddebianAh, the cheerful welcoming atmosphere on Debian irc channels just warms my heart :-)02:01
LaserJockas always02:02
jdongbddebian: well now that I am not sniping down potential sponsors as they walk in, you can be more relaxed in here ;-)02:02
bddebianHeh02:02
bddebianAck, the new muine is building freakin' windows binaries02:23
LaserJockhow so?02:28
bddebianDunno, I'm ending up with .dll and .exe files :)02:28
LaserJockwell, you should get .dll's at least02:29
jelmerbddebian: muine is mono02:29
LaserJocknot sure about the .exe's02:29
bddebianjelmer: I know but wtf02:29
jelmerbddebian: so you should indeed get dll's and .exe's02:29
jelmerbddebian: it's like that for all mono apps02:29
bddebianShould I ship them?02:29
jelmeryes02:29
LaserJockbddebian: it most likely won't work if you don't ;-)02:29
jelmeryou can invoke them by running "mono Muine.exe"02:29
bddebianUgh, fugly02:30
jelmerthough I believe muine comes with some wrapper script that does that for you02:30
bddebianYeah it has a /usr/bin/muine02:30
RAOFjelmer: Actually, you can run them with "Muine.exe", as long as you've got binformat support.02:30
jelmerbddebian: it's a lot like class files for java02:30
jelmerRAOF: ah, right02:30
RAOFDebian CLI policy states that you shouldn't install *.exe to bin, though.02:31
bddebianThe .exe isn't in bin02:31
RAOFThen you're laughing.  And should probably read the CLI policy anyway ;)02:31
StevenKBut bddebian doesn't laugh, he complains.02:32
* StevenK hides02:32
bddebianheh02:32
bddebianActually the damn thing is orphaned anyway and I seem to have run out of sponsors recently :-(02:33
* RAOF throws bddebian at StevenK 02:35
* Fujitsu throws bddebian at NM.02:35
LaserJockand bddebian never returns02:36
LaserJocksuch are black holes :/02:36
jelmerbddebian: is it actually still alive upstream? I thought they stopped doing releases02:36
bddebianHeh02:42
bddebianjelmer: Dunno, there is a 0.8.8 release02:42
bddebianFujitsu: I'm sitting idly in NM :-)02:42
FujitsuMy AM hasn't responded in about 3 months...02:43
bddebianI don't have one :)02:43
bddebianI think StevenK warned them about me :)02:43
jelmerbddebian: if you're uploading muine to Debian, you may want to consider #debian-mono and the pkg-cli-apps team02:43
jelmer*joining02:43
TheMusobddebian:, Fujitsu, its things like this that make the desire for becoming a Debian maintainer for meat least, rather minimal. I have more luck working with package maintainer directly, and having them upload any changes etc.02:45

TheMusopythoneers probably.03:03
ScottK2Yep.03:04
ScottK2Urgh.  Sorry.03:04
TheMusoScottK: heh thats ok. Thats why its good to sort bugmail for different teams into folders. :p03:05
ScottK2Or at least to actually read the bugmail all the way to the end.03:05
ScottK2Unconfirmed now.03:05
LaserJocksometimes I wish they'd put a one line <package> <component> <reason> at the *top* of the bugmail03:06
TheMusoLaserJock: That wouldn't hurt actually.03:07
TheMusoThey already have binary package hint03:07
ScottK2I love the ones that just say I got it because ubuntu-server or some team is a direct subscriber of the bug, but say nothing about which package it involves.03:07
ScottK2TheMuso: Not always.03:07
TheMusoOne could easily put the component in brackets or something similar after it.03:07
TheMusoScottK2: heh fun03:08
LaserJockyeah, I get a lot that don't have much of anything, just flipping Importance or Status or maybe a new comment03:08
ScottK2My favorite LP mail I got recently was one letting me know that some team couldn't join LP mailing list beta testers because bugsquad is signed up for that team and I'm stuck as an indirect member of that due to MOTU/core-dev.03:09

Fujitsuethana2: MOTU covers multiverse as well, but Canonical controls partner.03:58
ethana2Canonical needs to parter with google to deliver Google earth, picasa, and sketchup..03:58
ethana2via apt03:58
ethana2i would expect them to be considering that already03:58

ethana2that thing with elevated local priviledges04:01
ScottK2That one.04:01
nxvlis ubuntuwire a canonical server or a community one/04:01

ethana2i remember everyone making a big deal about that04:01
FujitsuWe do have another new server, but we don't have control over DNS or anything at this point.04:01

LaserJockI don't know how exactly that works though05:37
RAOFEveryone loves dpkg multiarch!05:37
RAOFBasically, 32bit stuff requires an entirely separate library stack.05:37
RAOF(As does 64bit stuff, but that's kinda the native stack).05:38
StevenKEven down to the C library. Fun, huh?05:38
RAOFTotally.05:38
LaserJockok, soo05:38
LaserJockI have a 32-bit app05:38
LaserJockso what do I need to do?05:38
* LaserJock is starting to curse his bad eyesight in downloading the amd64 .iso05:39
RAOFia32-libs has a huge stack of 32bit libraries.  If you've already got that installed, and your app wants something more...05:39
RAOFYou can file a bug against ia32-libs requesting that it gets added, and in the meantime you can download the i386 deb containing $LIB_OF_CHOICE, extract it, and put the .so into /usr/lib32.05:39
LaserJockit want's libmotif3 which is in Multiverse05:39
LaserJockab05:40
LaserJock*ah05:40
RAOFThere's a script somewhere on the forums which automates this process.05:40
LaserJock*cough* 64-bit sucks *cough*05:41
RAOFA proper multiarch dpkg would be fun.05:41

hellboy195geser: docs around for that?13:28
geserand try then digging in Makefile to find the place where it should get build13:28
brooniemtaylor: If you look through the lintian warnign text...13:29
geserhellboy195: I don't know of any, but it isn't difficult: pbuilder login, copy the source package from outside (or apt-get source it), unpack it, start building with dpkg-buildpackage -b (it will complain about missing build-depends so install them)13:30
hellboy195geser: k, thx. Will try it13:30
geserif you add -nc to dpkg-buildpackage -b it will skip clean so it doesn't start from fresh every time you try to get further (saves time, especially here)13:31
geserif you exit pbuilder all your changes are gone, so don't forget to save your changes outside13:33
hellboy195geser: well, it's the first time I'm doing that so I *will* make mistakes but nvm. I'm here to learn13:33
jdongtjaalton: does reverting intel to XAA affect video playback with compiz (IIRC xv didn't work when I tried that as an xorg.conf option some time ago in Hardy)13:40

tjaaltonjdong: could be that we'll end up using EXA for !965 too13:41

hellboy195persia: k, thx13:47
jdongtjaalton: confirmed, XAA + Xv + Compiz is no good13:47
jdongtjaalton: just a huge stream of BadAlloc messages in media player, blue screen13:47
hellboy195geser: bad, *stupid* question. how can I copy the source from outside? apt-get source is complaining that I need 'source' in my sources.list13:48
geserhellboy195: cp files /var/cache/pbuilder/build/<pid>/tmp/13:49

jdongFujitsu: on the 965, correct13:49

LucidFoxhellboy195 is quite a fan of merges, ne? :)18:11
hellboy195LucidFox: hmm. my mentor said: Merges are the best start on the long jorney to become a motu ;)18:11
LucidFoxwell, you do seem to handle merges well :)18:12
hellboy195And I haven't heart something for a while from him so I'm continuing doing merges ^^18:12
LucidFoxwho is it?18:12
hellboy195LucidFox: Andrea Veri (bluekuja)18:13
LucidFoxah18:13
LucidFoxit would be even better if you advocated non-Ubuntu-specific changes back to Debian ;)18:13
hellboy195LucidFox: which ones?18:14
LucidFoxjust speaking in general18:14
james_wThere are none left in beagle, but I agree.18:14
hellboy195ah k18:15
LucidFoxfor example, for conky, the compat and debhelper version18:15
hellboy195LucidFox: ah finally I found one who approved it. thanks ;)18:16
LucidFoxapproved what?18:16
hellboy195LucidFox: my merge18:18
hellboy195*conky*18:18
LucidFoxah18:18
LucidFoxyes, I did18:18

ScottKHobbsee: Sorry again for misunderstanding.18:38
hellboy195LucidFox: still around?18:45
jdongLaney: should go without saying, but do a clean build once you're done hacking.... Partial builds and full builds don't always work the same result :)18:46

RainCTwhat's the section for console emulators? otherosfs?20:37
RainCTwell, new question, get archive admins angry if you change a package's section? (ie, does this need some manual intervention from them or something producing extra workload?)20:53
geserRainCT: I guess the Section isn't important in Ubuntu20:55
geserRainCT: afaik you can change it like you want20:55
hellboy195geser: any progress about axiom?20:58

RainCTgeser: no? could you elaborate on this pls?21:05
geserRainCT: ???21:07
RainCTgeser: "I guess the Section isn't important in Ubuntu" ;)21:07
geserRainCT: I don't any place in LP/soyuz/archive where the Section is used21:09
geseronly in synaptic/aptitude/etc.21:09
Fujitsugeser: Is it used anywhere else in Debian either?21:09
geserI've never seen any requests about changing the Section21:09
FujitsuRainCT: It does require manual intervention by the archive admins. THey need to update the overrides.21:09
Fujitsugeser: I've done in a couple of times.21:09
geserRainCT: then trust Fujitsu21:10
FujitsuYou can change it in the source package,  but it won't have any effect.21:10
RainCTFujitsu, geser: thanks :)21:11

InsClusoeHi all.. I have picked up this bitesized string-fix bug.. Bug# 181860. It has to do with console-setup. How do I test my changes?21:19
InsClusoehttps://launchpad.net/bugs/18186021:20
LaneyInsClusoe: I usually build packages with debuild -B -us -uc in a VM and then install the .deb to see if I've fixed it.21:20
ubotuLaunchpad bug 181860 in console-setup "spelling or grammar issue" [Low,New]21:20
InsClusoeLaney: oh.. I don't have a VM installed.21:21
LaneyInsClusoe: Erm, well I don't know then. I guess you could just install it on your box if you're daring (and have all the dependencies) ;)21:22
LaneyMaybe others do it differently21:22
LaneyBut VMware (and others, but that's what I use) are available in the repos if you want to go the VM route21:23
RainCTLaney, InsClusoe: have a look at pbuilder ;)21:24
InsClusoeRainCT: ok..21:24
RainCTInsClusoe: and for now, if it hasn't many build dependencies you can just install them and run 'dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot' to get the .deb21:24
InsClusoeLaney: I don't have enough space to install a VM. So, that's out of the question, anyway.21:24
LaneyRainCT: I've seen that, but isn't it just for building the packages?21:25
LaneyOr can you run stuff inside the chroot?21:25
RainCTLaney: Ah, right, you also use it to test them.. Then your option is better in your case :).21:26
=== keffie_jayx is now known as effie_jayx
InsClusoeThere are only 5 dependencies.. Not much I guess..21:27
RainCTLaney: you can log into the chroot and run stuff there, but only on the terminal (no X server); pbuilder is for building, not testing21:27
LaneyRainCT: Yes, that's what I thought. Do most people do their testing in VMs then?21:28
* RainCT has really no idea about this :P21:29
InsClusoeI will take the PBuilder route.21:29
LaneyHaha, OK.21:29
LaneyNever mind21:29
Laneyhrm, I'm not too sure about Intrepid Ibex...21:29
RainCTLaney: me neither.. see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBEX_3521:30
RainCTInsClusoe: please respect a max. 80 chars per line limit in debian/copyright, debian/control, etc.21:31
slangasekwell, it's better than 'Intrepid IDEXX'21:31
LaneyI was holding out for Iguana :(21:32
* ScottK was hoping for an Iguana.21:32
ScottK;-)21:32
Laney:D21:32
InsClusoeRainCT: ok.. Sure.21:32
RainCTInsClusoe: btw, if you install ubuntu-dev-tools from hardy (if it even installs on Gutsy, I'm not sure :P) you'll get a get-build-deps command and pbuilder-dist (to have different pbuilder chroot's at once), beside other useful stuff (like update-maintainer to do the Maintainer field change)21:34
mok0the abbreviations for the latest releases have been the first of the two words: feisty, gutsy, hardy... all short words. Now we have "intrepid" :(21:34
RainCTInsClusoe: ah, and say (in debian/changelog) that you changed the maintainer field ;)21:34
InsClusoeRainCT: ok.. Does that mean I can build fixes for hardy even though I'm on Feisty or Gutsy?21:36
mok0InsClusoe: yes21:36
RainCTInsClusoe: yes, for any Ubuntu or Debian version you want21:36
InsClusoeRainCT: Today, I have set the DEBFULLNAME and DEBEMAIL fields correctly.21:36
InsClusoeRainCT: wow.. thats great. Then, the pbuilder create command will take different params to indicate which chroot I want?21:38
InsClusoeRainCT: I think I got it. I need to pass the correct argument for --distribution option to pbuilder create.21:40
mok0InsClusoe: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PbuilderHowto21:41
RainCTInsClusoe: pbuilder by default only supports one distribution (if you want more you have to pass it many arguments each time)21:41
InsClusoemok0: Yeah.. I am following the howto. :-)21:41
RainCTInsClusoe: but there is pbuilder-dist in ubuntu-dev-tools which is a wrapper arround this (just create symlink to it names pbuilder-hardy, pbuilder-gutsy, etc., as many as you want and you will then be able to do pbuilder-hardy create, pbuilder-hardy build *.dsc, etc.)21:42
InsClusoeRainCT: oh... I already installed pbuilder and it's creating my chroot for feisty now..21:44
mok0ScottK: pgadmin3 in debian is hopelessly out of date21:49
ScottKmok0: This would be because they don't have wxwidgets 2.8.  Fortunately we do.21:51
ScottKmok0: If you'd prepare an upgrade package I can virtually guarantee an FFe.  It'd be bad form not to support our default pg release with pgadmin.21:52
mok0ScottK: I could update it from 1.4.3 to 1.8.221:52
mok0ScottK: I agree. For the LTS it is needed21:53
ScottKmok0: Please do.21:53
mok0ScottK: should I prepare it as a debdiff?21:53
ScottKmok0: No, diff.gz for the new package.21:53
mok0ScottK: ... and attatch to a bug report I gues21:54
mok0s21:54
ScottKYes21:54
mok0ScottK: I'll get on it right away21:54
ScottKmok0: Once you're a MOTU you'll be able to just upload these, so please give us a .diff.gz you'd be happy to upload if you could ...21:55
mok0ScottK: ok. Any tags on the bugreport?21:55

InsClusoeI am working on Bug#181860 -- a bitesized, spelling and grammar change.22:58
InsClusoeEven for such a minor change, do I need to increase the ubuntu revision number?22:58
DktrKranzInsClusoe, yes22:59
InsClusoeok.. Thanks.22:59
geserInsClusoe: every upload to the archive needs a new version else it will get rejected23:01
InsClusoeI have set up chroot using pbuilder. I have made the changes as mentioned in bug report. Now I can use dch -i to mark my changes in changelog and then do a pbuilder build. Am I on the right path?23:01
gesermore or less23:02
geserInsClusoe: does the package have already a ubuntu version and changed Maintainer?23:02
InsClusoegeser: Yes23:02
geserok, so no need to change the Maintainer this time as it was already done23:03
geserdon't forget to build the new source package (debuild -S) before pbuilding :)23:04
InsClusoegeser: Alright.. :-)23:04
InsClusoeGeser: Another silly question... In the changelog, do I need to use my real name or can I use my IRC handle?23:15
NafalloInsClusoe: RN23:16

LaserJockdoes the Sun Java plugin work for amd64?23:25
RAOFLaserJock: I think that icedtea does.  I've not noticed the lack of java.23:27
LaserJockhmm yeah, it tells  me to get icedtea, but I see no Sun plugin23:27
LaserJockinteresting23:27
LaserJockI'm starting to wish I could "convert" my install to i38623:28
* StevenK is quite happy with his 64 bit install23:28
LaserJockbeing able to have an amd64 pbuilder is nice23:29
LaserJockbut that's about all the good I've found so far23:29
LaserJockvmware and virtualbox don't seem to be able to handle 64 bit23:30
LaserJockso if I test on my laptop I have to make amd64 .debs and if I want to test in vmware I have to rebuild for i38623:30
slangaseka plain i386 chroot will work fine on amd64, FWIW23:31
StevenKAnd if vmware and virtualbox have worked fine on my machine, albeit without 64 bit guests.23:32
StevenKYou can't run long mode code from protected mode, so if you boot 32 bit, all you get is 32.23:32
LaserJockslangasek: true, but that's another chroot I need to have just for that23:33
slangasekLaserJock: as opposed to having a dedicated image for it?23:33
LaserJockslangasek: as opposed to just running it on my laptop23:34
LaserJockdirectly23:34
slangasekwell, ok; but you were talking about vmware and virtualbox, I was pointing out there are alternatives to those that work just fine for package building/testing23:34
StevenKLaserJock: So it seems your main problem with amd64 is "It isn't 32 bit"23:34
LaserJockStevenK: well, basically :/23:34
LaserJockthis is just my first amd64 experience and I didn't realize how much I'd need to workaround23:35
StevenKThen install the 32 bit one? If you partitioned your disk sensibly, you won't lose /home or anything23:35
mok0LaserJock: why don't you use kvm?23:36
LaserJockslangasek: ah right, I could have a i386 chroot so that I can just build once23:36
LaserJockmok0: doesn't work on my processor I don't think23:36
LaserJockcould be wrong, but I thought only certain processors ran kvm23:36
StevenKYup, you need processor extensions.23:37
StevenKMy machine doesn't have them either23:37
slangasekI thought you just needed a bios that didn't hobble them23:37
mok0LaserJock: what does egrep ‘(vmx|svm)’ /proc/cpuinfo  say?23:37
LaserJockmok0: nada23:37
RAOFAnd if you're going to try kvm, check out virt-manager.  It rocks.23:38
mok0LaserJock: :-(23:38
RAOFWell, that scuppers that briliant plan :/23:38
mok0kvm runs without it be s.l.o.w.l.y23:38
LaserJockI've got one of the Core 2 Duo's that doesn't have vmx23:38
StevenKHrm, I thought all Core processors had the extensions ...23:39
LaserJockno23:39
StevenKAh well23:39
LaserJockthere are about 5-10 that don't23:39
mok0StevenK: the older ones don't23:39
RAOFAnd the low-end newer ones, too, I think.23:39
mok0I just got a Q6600 and it rocks! Not very expensive23:40
LaserJockI've got a T525023:40
LaserJockin any case, it's not a big deal, I just wonder if 32bit is a better way to go23:41
LaserJockI got the amd64 .iso by accident and figured I should at least try it out23:41
LaserJockand most things work, but when you gotta deal with the binary/3rd party stuff it gets interesting23:42
StevenKOnly because most binary/3rd party assume the world == ia3223:42
InsClusoeI get this error after running dch -i and saving my changes: parsechangelog/debian: error: badly formatted trailer line, at file debian/changelog line 823:43
LaserJockStevenK: heh, of course23:43
mok0We got a significant speed gain on several programs under amd6423:44
InsClusoegeser: any clues? It's not over the eighty character per line limit...23:44
LaserJockmok0: what kind of programs?23:44
mok0LaserJock: cpu intensive, calculations23:45
LaserJockInsClusoe: can you pastebin the changelog?23:45
geserInsClusoe: did you change something in line 8?23:45
InsClusoeYeah..23:45
InsClusoeI edited the DEBFULLNAME field after starting dch.. could that be the reason?23:46
gesercan you show me that line only?23:47
InsClusoeHere's tht line...  -- Gnanaskandan R<jalsa_gujals@yahoo.com>  Thu, 21 Feb 2008 04:43:04 +053023:47
gesermy guess it a missing space before the email address (between R and <)23:48
InsClusoeyes... An additional space fixed it.23:49
* InsClusoe thanks geser23:49
InsClusoeThe version number in changelog is 1.13ubuntu13. If there are no changes in debian, shouldn't the version number be 1.13-0ubuntu13?23:52
LaserJockit depends on if it's a native package23:53
LaserJockif it is (there's no .orig.tar.gz) then 1.13ubuntu13 is alright23:53
LaserJockas 1.13 would be the Debian version23:54
InsClusoeLaserJock: You are correct. There's no .orig.tar.gz.23:55
