steveireLaserJock: mok0_: Still here. I was away, just read back. The previous version in gutsy backports was 1.1.8-2ubuntu2~gutsy1. The hardy version was 1.1.10-1ubuntu1. I should have named it 1.1.10-1ubuntu1-1~0ppa1?00:32
mok0_steveire: yep00:32
LaserJockhmm00:32
LaserJockwhat package is this?00:32

steveirelibxine00:33
mok0_sorry00:34
steveire1.1.10-1ubuntu1~gutsy1~ppa1?00:34
mok0_steveire  1.1.10-1~0ppa1 if you ported 1.1.10-1 from debian00:34
steveireit was from hardy. Same thing?00:35
mok0_not if the convention for backports is what LaserJock said ^^^00:36
LaserJockI have a thought00:36
LaserJockthe Hardy version is not 1.1.10-1ubuntu100:37
LaserJockit's 1.1.10-1build100:37
mok0_Ah, the Build distribution :-)00:37
StevenKNo, build1 is a no-change rebuild00:37
LaserJockso that means that the base version was 1.1.10-100:38
LaserJocksteveire: does that make sense?00:38
* Hobbsee wonders hwere the current policy on UVFe's are, including those of native packages00:40
steveireLaserJock: You''re right. The version is 1.1.10-1. So I should have done 1.1.10-1~gutsy1~ppa1?00:40
mok0_So a rule for PPA owners could be: find the base version-release, append ~0ppaX to that00:40
steveireOh right that one.00:40
steveireWhy is it a bad thing to assume a backport will exist?00:41
Hobbsee!uvfe00:41

Hobbseepersia: ping?00:41
mok0_steveire: I don't think it's bad00:41
LaserJocksteveire: the problem is that you don't know if it's gonna be a -backport or not00:41
LaserJockif you did 1.1.10-1~gutsy1~ppa1 it implies that 1.1.10-1~gutsy1 exists00:42
mok0_But you want to make sure (like you said, steveire) that IF it appears in the archives, that version will take presedence00:42
mok0_LaserJock: right00:43
steveireLaserJock: Isn't the alternative going to be a version bump to a major release? so 1.1.10-1~hardy1. mok0_Exactly.00:43

db-keenI'm trying to package additional documentation intended for developers10:21
db-keenAPI docs, papers about program design, etc.10:21
slytherindb-keen: Why do you think documentation for end users and developers need to be in separate packages?10:22
db-keenI suppose they don't have to, but it seems like a reasonable split10:23
db-keenfoo, foo-dev, and foo-doc could all be in the same package10:23
slytherindb-keen: or if you still want to have to packages how about foo-help for users and foo-doc for developers.10:23
db-keenbut it's a logical split between them10:23
db-keenis foo-help a policy-compliant name?10:24
db-keenI've always used foo-doc.10:24

murrayc_Hi. I have a package that needs reviewing/fixing/doing-properly. It's gnome-lirc-properties - a GUI for remote control configuration. Would someone like to take a look? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/19236810:37
ubotuLaunchpad bug 192368 in ubuntu "Please add gnome-lirc-properties" [Wishlist,Confirmed]10:37
mok0_Who the fsck is this Valyander, he's subscribed to every LP bug I've looked at?11:03
murrayc_What's a "native package"?11:06
mok0_murrayc_: It's a package written especially for Ubuntu (Debian)11:07
slytherinmurrayc_: Few comments. 1. Your program expects that a file '/etc/lirc/hardware.conf' which I believe is part of lirc package, but your package doesn't have a dependency on lirc. 2. A .changelog.swp has made its way in debian directory, remove it11:07
dholbachmurrayc_: a native package is a package where all the source + the changes to make it build in debian/ubuntu are in one tarball11:08
dholbachmurrayc_: non-native packages use upstream's original tarball and call it <software>_<upstreamversion>.orig.tar.gz11:09
tbfmurrayc_: ping11:09
murrayc_So how would I avoid that? I just followed a how-to on ubuntu.com11:09
murrayc_tbf: Hi.11:09
murrayc_<slytherin> murrayc_: Few comments. 1. Your program expects that a file '/etc/lirc/hardware.conf' which I believe is part of lirc package, but your package doesn't have a dependency on lirc. 2. A .changelog.swp has made its way in debian directory, remove it11:09
murrayc_I wonder what that .changelog.swp is.11:09
murrayc_<dholbach> murrayc_: non-native packages use upstream's original tarball and call it <software>_<upstreamversion>.orig.tar.gz11:10
dholbachmurrayc_: dch creates it when you're still editing it11:10
tbfmurrayc_: vim's swapfile11:10
slytherinmurrayc_: It is created by vi11:10
murrayc_ah.11:10
tbfit's really strange that debuild packages hidden files11:10
murrayc_<dholbach> murrayc_: a native package is a package where all the source + the changes to make it build in debian/ubuntu are in one tarball11:10
tbf...like swap files, or .git repos11:10
slytherinmurrayc_: another thing, your source package should be gnome-lirc-properties_0.1.0.orig.tar.gz and you should remove debian/ directory from it.11:10
dholbachmurrayc_: if you rename the upstream tarball, then add all the debian/ bits, then call debuild -S it will create a .diff.gz for you and it'll be non-native11:10
dholbachmurrayc_: be sure to use a version like    <upstreamversion>-<ubuntu revision>  in debian/changelog too11:11
dholbachmurrayc_: as mok0_ said above: they are often used for stuff written specifically for Ubuntu (where there's no clear 'specifically released' upstream tarball)11:11
murrayc_That's odd. /debian is not in our upstream tarball: http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/gnome-lirc-properties/0.1/11:11
dholbachmurrayc_: if you rename the upstream tarball to gnome-lirc-properties_0.1.0.orig.tar.gz, then add the debian stuff, then rebuild the source package (debuild -S -sa) you should be fine11:12
murrayc_dholbach: And will it then be correct in future by just doing uupdate?11:12
dholbachif the debian/watch file is set up properly it should, yes11:12
murrayc_dholbach: Thanks. I'll try that now.11:12

dholbachmok0_: thanks a lot for that11:16
db-keenWhat's the difference between /usr/share/pixmaps and /usr/bin/icons ?11:24
hellboy195db-keen: my ubuntu hasn't got a /usr/bin/icons. Normally there are the binaries of applications ,..11:31
db-keenwhoops, I mean /usr/share/icons11:31
proppyoy11:31
IulianHey11:32
murrayc_dholbach: So you mean, rename the upstream tarball to gnome-lirc-properties_0.1.0.orig.tar.gz, extract it, put the debian/ directory in that directory and th rebuild the source package (debuild -S -sa)?en11:35

RainCTScottK, ScottK2: Is the new python- package in ubuntu-dev-tools okay for entering Hardy or does it need a Freeze Exception (it's not a new feature, but just moving some stuff out from an executable and putting it into a Python module by itself)?16:20
LaserJockmok2: awesome16:20
mok2LaserJock: I will do this in a chroot env.16:21
LaserJockRainCT: it creates a new binary package?16:21
RainCTLaserJock: yes, python-ubuntutools (which contains the module ubuntutools.ppaput)16:22
LaserJocksounds like that might need a FFe since Ubuntu Archive will need to process it16:23
LaserJockalthough maybe they don't care16:23
sistpoty|workRainCT: what does ubuntutools.ppaput contain code for?16:24
sistpoty|work(out of interest)16:24
ScottKRainCT: It's a New package, so it does (impacts archive admin workload).16:25
* ScottK really wonders why we need a script for dput name-of-ppa 16:25
RainCTsistpoty|work: stuff from ppaput (the executable one) which could also be useful in other scripts16:26
RainCTScottK: I don't use it myself, but I think it also handles bug reports and such16:26
RainCTLaserJock: okay, I'll file a bug then. Thanks16:26
ScottKHow can you have a bug report for a PPA upload?16:26
RainCTScottK: "man ppaput" knows better :)16:28
RainCTor ping dholbach16:28
RainCT(well, once he is back)16:29
ScottKRainCT: I think it should be removed from the package.16:30
dholbachScottK: why?16:31
ScottKdholbach: Is PPA part of our agreed sponsoring process?16:31
ScottKWe've talked about this before.16:31
ScottKWe have a process and PPA isn't in it.16:31
dholbachwe did and I've changed the documentation16:32
ScottKThis tool puports to support our sponsoring proces, but is an entirely different one16:32
dholbachI'm not sure I understand16:32
ScottKFrom the man page: "This tool aims to help with the sponsoring process ... and is written by the MOTU team"16:33
ScottKThis is not true16:33
dholbachthat's no reason to remove it from the tools package16:33
dholbachI can certainly change the text (or anybody can)16:34
ScottKdholbach: Why should it be in the package taking up space on my hard drive?16:34
\shdamn16:34
\sh0.9.56 is released...16:34
LaserJockScottK: well, that's not a particularly convincing argument16:34
LaserJockthere is a *great* many files that are taking up space on your hard drive16:34
ScottKLaserJock: The tool claims to support our sponsoring process, but is actually irrelevant to it.16:35
LaserJockso more of a description/usage problem16:35
LaserJockI'm not really sure what ppaput is useful for16:35
ScottKIt seems like it's off topic for Ubuntu Development Tools16:36
LaserJockwell, it's useful at least as an example16:36
LaserJockthough I'm not sure I like the idea of creating a new binary just for it16:36
ScottKFrom the package overview it doesn't seem to have any other purpose.16:36
ScottKWe've got clear working processes for New packages, upgrades, and new revisions now.  This isn't any of those.16:37
LaserJockdholbach: do we have a clear use case for ppaput?16:37
ScottKdholbach: If I touch the package I'll just remove ppaput.  Someone with a different interest might want to clarify it then.16:38
LaserJockI must confess I'm a little sketchy on what it does16:38
RainCTLaserJock: the new package is intended to get more stuff later (see http://paste.ubuntu.com/4899/)16:39
LaserJocktbh, that seems a little weird16:40
ScottKRainCT: Then it should go in a package called launchpad-dev-tools.  It's nothing to do with MOTU processes.16:40
LaserJockor it should provide a "general" abstraction16:40
LaserJockit seems odd to me to create a whole new package and "abstraction" specifically for PPA16:41
sistpoty|workactually, I've just looked at the gutsy ppaput thingy, and imho it doesn't make sense to have it in ubuntu-dev-tools as long as we don't adjust the sponsorship process. if we don't do the latter, the only thing that is not buggy imo in ppaput is the dput call16:42
dholbachsorry, in a call right now - be back in a bit16:42
sistpoty|workand for testing purposes, having ppaput lying on a ppa seems the best option for me :)16:42
sistpoty|work(or in bzr)16:43
sistpoty|workdamn... I *must* stop procrastrinating *g*16:43
RainCTScottK: neither the package's name nor description (talking about python-ubuntutools) say that it's for MOTU (and when I said that it's intended to get more stuff I ment other non-LP related stuff..)16:43
LaserJockhmm, I'm just getting a bit confused by all the "helper packages" with seemingly overlapping and/or trivial content16:44
* RainCT agrees that the ppa module should be more general, btw16:44
* RainCT will stop now discussing about this as he isn't neither interested in ppaput nor has he ever tried it16:45
LaserJockso we'd have at least python-ubuntutools, ubuntu-dev-tools, bughelper, python-bughelper, python-launchpad-bugs, and five-a-day packages for "work in Ubuntu"16:46
RainCTLaserJock: isn't the 5 a day stuff in a PPA?16:47
LaserJockyep16:47
LaserJockbut there is a "needs packaging" bug files16:47
LaserJock*filed16:47
sistpoty|workLaserJock: that's FOSS at it's best :P16:47
RainCToh, I don't know what it contains but wouldn't it be suitable for ubuntu-dev-tools?16:48
LaserJocksistpoty|work: hmmm, I think I could debate you on that one16:48
LaserJockI would argue that having lots of nice little tools is great, but scattering them all over everywhere isn't so nice16:48
RainCT(ubuntu-dev-tools and python-ubuntutools don't overlap, the first one has executables and the second one modules -well, until now only one but there will be more- used by some of those executables; and their are the same source package)16:48
ScottKWell this kind of stuff is the kind of thing that was really concerining me when I pulled back at the start of the Hardy cycle.  I thought it'd stopped.16:48
LaserJockespecially when the keep changing names, don't seem to have stability16:48
ScottKI'm going to go calm down now.16:49
sistpoty|workLaserJock: heh... I guess I'd even go as far to say it's software engineering at its best... :)16:49
kirklandmathiaz: http://pastebin.com/pastebin.php?diff=m1e055dfe16:49
kirklandmathiaz: there seem to be regressions, i'm chasing those down16:49
LaserJocksistpoty|work: I don't mind the software engineering part nearly as much as the packaging part16:49
sistpoty|workheh16:49
RainCTScottK2: hey, no need to overhead just because you don't like a script ;)16:50
LaserJockif they are in different packages from different sources16:50
LaserJockit's easy to break stuff16:50
* sistpoty|work just wonders, why it's so trivial to write code doing roughly the same things twice and cleaning it up is much harder (while cleaining up my own project)16:51
RainCT*overheat16:51
jpatrickRainCT: he's not here :p16:52
RainCToh right16:52
RainCT:P16:52

zuleh?16:54
zulwhy is there more tests failed?16:54
LaserJockRainCT: whether they are executables or modules is basically irrelevant16:55
kirklandzul: I'm looking....16:55
kirklandzul: and I'm running on i386 too16:55
RainCTLaserJock: Python policy :)16:55
LaserJockRainCT: no, hang on a sec there16:55
LaserJockPython policy does *not* state you have to have a new package if you have modules16:55
zul*grumble*16:55
LaserJockit would be perfectly fine to ship it all in a single package for now16:57
RainCTLaserJock: neither if those are public modules?16:57
LaserJockthey shouldn't *be* public modules16:57
LaserJockthat's my point16:57
LaserJockwhy would you make them public modules and do a new binary package at this point16:57
RainCTLaserJock: well, the idea of even having those modules is for them to be public. and afaik there's at least 1 person interested in them (right, 1 person is really not a good argument :))16:58
LaserJockif there is need for them to go public then great, but it should most likely be in a different package16:58
LaserJockunless we have a number of things we want to make public16:59
LaserJockit just seems odd to add the maintainence overhead and complexity for such a narrow and small library16:59
* \sh <- EoB16:59
LaserJockwhich in fact, at this point, has really not much of any bearing on MOTU16:59
=== \sh is now known as \sh_away
RainCTLaserJock: well, I'll leave the module in the same binary then until there are more modules, if dholbach is OK with that17:00
sistpoty|workwell making such modules public would imho only be a good idea, if the api has become stable... otherwise it's no fun depending on it ;)17:00
LaserJocksistpoty|work: exactly17:00
LaserJockthis is a fairly common thing I'm seeing17:00
LaserJockpeople putting out public libraries with before they reach any stability, then everything breaks on the next upload17:01
LaserJocks/with//17:01
LaserJockideally I'd like to see only 2 packages17:03
LaserJockpython-launchpad and ubuntu-dev-tools17:03
LaserJockand let python-launchpad handle all the abstraction of LP we need17:03
LaserJockand then ubuntu-dev-tools being the actual tools and scripts people would use17:04

dholbachRainCT: you have a module in ubuntu-dev-tools right now, right?17:51
dholbachis it necessary for the module to have the ppaput script in ubuntu-dev-tool too? I guess not, right?17:52

RainCTdholbach: the ppaput module that is currently going into python-ubuntutools (which isn't mine; rexbron worked on it)? it doesn't require the ppaput command, but the command needs the module17:54

gouchior I must make it work with autotools , cmake .... ?19:38
LaneyI need some advice. If I have a patch which modifies aclocal.m4, I need to run autoconf somehow, right? So I've put this in the patch stanza in debian/rules. But then I have to build-dep on autoconf, which isn't really ideal. Can someone advise me on the best way to proceed?19:48
slangasekLaney: one option is to capture the changes resulting from running autoconf in a separate patch19:49
slangasekbut build-depending on autoconf is common enough, and not really frowned upon19:49
slangasekbtw, you say you're editing aclocal.m4, not acinclude.m4?19:49
Laneyslangasek: It's an upstream patch which modifies aclocal19:50
slangasekwell, ok19:50
slangasekbad upstream, they should be making their changes to acinclude.m4 :)19:50
slangasek(aclocal.m4 is also supposed to be auto-generated)19:51
LaneyActually there isn't even an acinclude file...19:51
LaneyMaybe they've just hand written an aclocal19:51
Laneyslangasek: Anyway, you don't think that build-depending on autoconf is a problem? I'll go ahead and do that if so.19:53
slangasekyes, build-depending on autoconf is a common practice.  Please be sure to remove the modified configure script in the clean target, though19:57
LaneyAs in `rm configure'?20:01
slangasekLaney: yes20:04
slangasekthat way you don't end up with a lot of interdiff churn for each new version of autoconf that's used20:04

Laneyblueyed: There is a configure in the source21:27
Legendariodoes anyone know the answer?21:27
LaneyLegendario: I think I saw something about packaging python scripts on there, let me look21:28
LaneyLegendario: Sorry, I can't see it :(21:30
geserLegendario: just use cp where you would use make install and cp them to the right location21:30
blueyedLaney: I'm only seeing configure.ac.. Maybe because you delete it in clean?21:30
LegendarioLaney, what about other scripts like perl and bash???21:31
Laneyblueyed: Yes, that was per slangasek21:31
Legendariogeser, i want to pack them.21:31
geserLegendario: yes, and make install usually uses /usr/bin/install to get the files into the correct dir below debian/ from where the deb is build later21:32
geserso you just need to make sure you do it too21:32
Legendariogeser, sorry. but i couldn't understand what i am supposed to do exactly21:33
geserLegendario: are you familiar how the deb building works for a package which needs compilation?21:34
Legendariogeser, i am giving my first steps. Have created 3 packages so far...21:35
blueyed...which is quite good already :)21:36
blueyedLaney: uploaded.21:36

Laneyblueyed: Thanks!21:36
Legendariogeser, sure thing21:36
LaneyUrgh, I should be more generous in allocating space to my VMs21:37
geserLegendario: from those dir the deb is packed in the end21:37
geserLegendario: so if you don't need compilation, you just need to make sure that the files are in the correct dirs below debian/ so a deb can be build from it21:38

geserhave you tried to look what a Makefile does?21:47
geseryou need to cp the script(s) into debian/<packagename/... where ... is the path it should have later in the package21:49
LaneyLegendario: I find that looking at how existing similar packages work helps my understanding21:49
geseroO( someone should add a chapter about packaging script to the packaging guide who can explain it better than me )21:49
Legendariogeser, i agree with this guide adition...21:50
Legendariogeser, would it be, for example: debian/usr/bin ?21:50
Legendarioor debian/usr/bin/packagename?21:51
geserdebian/packagename/usr/bin21:52
geserdpkg-deb takes at the end the contents of debian/packagename/ and makes a packagename.deb out of it21:52
Legendariogeser, so. the script goes on the end of the path debian/packagename/usr/bin ?21:54
geseryes21:54
geserand the deb will contain it later as usr/bin/scriptname21:54
Legendariogeser, and I build the package as always: debuild -S -sa21:55
geseryes, everything is nearly the same like in other packages21:56
Legendariogeser, thanks a lot man... I am going to try it right away. But i think someone should add it on the wiki21:57
geserthe only difference is that you don't need to call make in debian/rules (as there is nothing to compile) and need to replace the make install call with the correct cp call(s) to get the script where it belongs (if you don't have a Makefile which does it for you)21:57
gesere.g. some python modules don't have a makefile but a setup.py script which does the building (if needed) and can also copy the files to the correct location when called with install21:59
Legendariogeser, so, if i am using cdbs, i take the line: include /usr/share/cdbs/1/class/makefile.mk22:02
Legendarioout, and what should i place?22:02
gesersorry, I don't how to best to do it with cdbs22:03
SeveasLegendario, there's a distutils class22:03
LegendarioSeveas, /usr/share/cdbs/1/class/distutils.mk?22:04
SeveasLegendario, here's a simple debian/rules for cdbs+distutils:22:04
Seveas#!/usr/bin/make -f22:04
SeveasDEB_PYTHON_SYSTEM=pycentral22:04
Seveasinclude /usr/share/cdbs/1/rules/debhelper.mk22:04
Seveasinclude /usr/share/cdbs/1/class/python-distutils.mk22:04
Seveasnot sure if it's still necessary to define DEB_PYTHON_SYSTEM22:05
LegendarioSeveas, i my case, it is a perl script... so, can it be perl-distutils.mk?22:06
Seveasah sorry, didn't read it all, from gesers comment I though tou were dealing with python22:07
SeveasLegendario, if what you want to package is just simple files, have a debian/install and use dh_install22:09
hellboy195Seveas: cdbs seems to be very easy. why hasn't replaced it the other things?22:10
Seveashellboy195, imho it's too much black magic22:10
Seveashellboy195, but I use it for all simple packages I do :)22:11
hellboy195Seveas: ^^22:11
sistpotyhellboy195: easy != you know what's going on or have control of it ;)22:12
LegendarioSeveas, how is the sintaxe of dh_install?22:12
hellboy195sistpoty: for me is the easiest way the best way ^^22:12
SeveasLegendario, man dh_install22:13
geserhellboy195: cdbs works well with packages using autotools or python-distutils, but you have to fight it in the other cases22:13
mario_limonciellhellboy195, i'm personally a huge fan of cdbs, but still feel that you should learn to package with and without it (so you learn what the underlying things its doing are)22:13
Legendariogeser, i agree.22:13
geserLegendario: iirc there should be chapter describing packaging with debhelper in the packaging guide22:14
sistpotyhellboy195: when reviewing packages I often found out that people had no clue how to do a simple thing I requested, because they didn't know what's going on or how to change it22:14
hellboy195sistpoty: yeah I understand :)22:14
hellboy195mario_limonciell: because of that I'm doing merges without grab-merge ^^22:14
sistpotygranted, cdbs is very powerful though, if you do know what's going on22:15
Legendariogeser, i've read it all. I am trying to pack with all the options22:15
hellboy195geser: unfortunately there is no *one way* :(22:15
gesersistpoty: even if you know what cdbs does in the background it's not easy to get cdbs to do what you want22:15
sistpotygeser: it's not straightforward or easy, but I guess it can be done... however /me prefers to not use cdbs because debian/rules say what is going on (even if they are longer)22:16
=== tbf|afk is now known as tbf
gesersistpoty: do you know how to get cdbs to specify a build-indep target for arch:all package?22:21
sistpotygeser: no... as I wrote, I prefer to not use it (and used it actually only once for a python package)22:22
* geser looks a the bad work-around done to the clipper FTBFS on !i386 by moving B-D-I to B-D22:22
Seveasouch22:22
sistpotyimho it was a bad move as well, to diverge from debian's cdbs (with the symlink thingies)... oh, I must report a bug for this still22:23
ScottKsistpoty: It was by design though, so good idea or bad, it's not a bug.22:23
ScottKgeser: You might use that as an education opportunity for mok0 then (clipper).22:23
sistpotyScottK: imho the current implementation is a bug, because it allows bad symlinks (but I looked more closely at the implementation 2 weeks ago, maybe it's already fixed)22:24
geserScottK: I know the taken approach is wrong, but have no idea how the correct fix looks like22:24
ScottKsistpoty: OK.  Fair enough.22:25
=== emgent is now known as carlo__
sistpotyScottK: luckily, it omits debian/copyright from symlinking... if that was done, it could lead to serious license violations :)22:25
ScottKgeser: He's pretty sharp about a lot of stuff, just still learning Debian packaging.   With a little pointing, I bet he could solve it.22:25

* tbf wonders if there i some guide to muve stuff from ppa to universe....22:34
tbf...now that lintian accepts this gnome-lirc-properties package....22:35

ScottKPPA is pretty much irrelevant to getting a package in Universe.22:37
ScottKIt's the same as any package.22:37
tbfScottK: well the build service helps alot to fix issues without bugging motus22:39
ScottKtbf: Yes.  It's likely a better package to start with, but the process is the same.22:44
=== Spec is now known as x-spec-t
Legendariogeser, what about java software without makefiles or install scripts... is it the same process?22:55
Legendarioi don't think so...22:55
sistpotyoh, anyone with gnome and an nvidia card who could test a debdiff to sensors-applet for me?22:57
hellboy195sistpoty: here :)22:58
sistpotyhellboy195: excellent... http://launchpadlibrarian.net/12022921/proposed.debdiff is against the latest version (imo)22:58
geserLegendario: doesn't java use ant?22:58
hellboy195sistpoty: ähm. I *make* debdiffs but I don't know how to *use* them :(22:59
Legendariogeser, i don't know what it is...22:59
sistpotyhellboy195: öhm... apt-get source sensors-applet22:59
sistpotyhellboy195: then cd into the top source dir and do23:00
sistpotyhellboy195: patch -p0 < thedebdiff23:00
hellboy195sistpoty: k :)23:00
geserLegendario: some java apps use ant (Java based build tool like make) and there is already a cdbs class for ant23:00
sistpotyand funny, to see an ähm btw. :)23:01

hellboy195paultag: nice :)23:05
Legendariogeser, i found a page that says i need ant and java SDK, to build it... does the ant class able to handle it?23:05
sistpotypaultag: maybe there some bitesize bugs left, you could look at wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/TODO23:05
tbfguess i'll have to change the package's version number from 0.2.0-0ubuntu1~ppa3 to something different, before uploading to REVU?23:06

norsettonight all23:06
hellboy195norsetto: night :)23:06

sistpotyhellboy195: does the updated one show the temparatures of the GPU?23:06
tbfprobably "0.2.0-0ubuntu2"?23:06

Legendariogot this: You must specify a valid JAVA_HOME or JAVACMD!23:08
sistpotyLegendario: iirc, this should be provided by the right java package... but that was *very* long ago, when I last had seen this23:09
hellboy195jdong: it seems that he is fine23:09
hellboy195sistpoty: only cpu :(23:10
sistpoty:(23:10
sistpotyhellboy195: do you have l-r-m installed? and are using the restricted driver?23:10

hellboy195sistpoty: gnome should be installed ;)23:12
jdonghellboy195: oh it's just a radar encounter with the Valentine One radar detector23:12

hellboy195sistpoty: I leave soon, if you need me to test it again tomorrow - just ping me23:13
jdong:)23:13
sistpotyhellboy195: oh, do you have nvidia-settings installed... if so, could you start that and see if that one shows you the GPU temperature?23:14
Legendariosistpoty, any hints on how to deal with it?23:14
sistpotyothers than that, I have no real clue where to fix it w.o. trying myself23:14
hellboy195sistpoty: the restricted driver doesn't install the -settings so no, but I can install it ...23:15
sistpotyLegendario: what do your build-depends look like?23:15
Legendariosistpoty, cdbs, debhelper (>= 5)23:15
sistpotyLegendario: you'll need s.th. that provides a java compiler in there... I wouldn't know what actually though (maybe gcj?)23:16
sistpotyLegendario: and "ant"23:16
hellboy195sistpoty: 47° :)23:17
sistpotyhm... damn again *g*23:18
* sistpoty installs gnome23:18
hellboy195sistpoty: gnome should already be installed ^^ xD23:18
Legendariosistpoty, gcj and ant?23:18
sistpotyheh, not for a kubuntu user (who purged gnome partly once)23:18
Legendarioonly this?23:19
hellboy195sistpoty: I don't understand what's so cool about kde/kubuntu23:19
sistpotyLegendario: it might be worth a try... but I can't really say that it is sufficient to build a java package with these23:19
Legendariosistpoty, what about this package: libjaxp1.3-java-gcj - Java XML parser and transformer APIs (DOM, SAX, JAXP, TrAX)23:20
tbfthat linda message seems bogous to me: http://revu.tauware.de/revu1-incoming/gnome-lirc-properties-0802230010/linda23:20
sistpotyhellboy195: I found out how to assign a shortcut to launch a shell (back in kde1.something, where it was really hard work)... since then I never switched, so this very shortcut is broken right now :/23:20
hellboy195sistpoty: xD ^^23:20
sistpotytbf: yes, it is... linda is quite outdated on revu23:21
sistpoty(or rather outdated in general... but she still spots some errors lintian won't find)23:21
hellboy195sistpoty: wouldn't it be the best to merge these 2 ?23:21
slangaseksistpoty: which errors are those?  I'm sure the lintian maintainers would like to know about them23:21
tbfsistpoty: ok - pew23:22
tbf:-)23:22
sistpotyhellboy195: ask StevenK ;)23:22
hellboy195sistpoty: away atm :( ^^23:22
sistpotyslangasek: I don't recall right now... and actually my knowledge of these dates back to when linda wasn't outdated yet :P23:22
slangasekright, ok :)23:23
sistpotygrml... either I'm stupid, or gnome2 is still not installable (note, that I'm one day behind, mirror)23:24
hellboy195sistpoty: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop ;)23:25
tbfpochu: fresh meat: http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?package=gnome-lirc-properties :-D23:27
sistpotyhm... why is there a gnome-desktop-environment in universe?23:28
sistpoty(which fooled me)23:28
LaserJockprobably from Debian23:28
sistpotyit is from debian, but is it needed (meta-package)?23:28
LaserJockwe sync many metapackages from Debian23:31
LaserJockthat it is in Universe is the first indicator that it's probably not what you want ;-)23:31
