azeemwhat happens if I upload a source packages to PPA but forget the .orig.tar.gz?01:15
slangasekmrh01:15
azeemI mean, will I have to bug people, or can I just rebuild the package with -sa and reupload01:15
azeemor do I have to bump version numbers01:16
slangasekit was rejected, then?01:16
slangasekor what?01:16
azeemdunno, it was only a few minutes ago01:16
azeemthis was the first time I tried to upload something to PPA01:16
azeemah01:17
azeemrejected01:17
azeembah01:17
azeemUnable to find distroseries: unstable01:17
slangasekah, really?  I have no recollection of using -sa when uploading a package to PPA; but maybe yours is an .orig.tar.gz that's not in the archive... oh, or it could be rejected for an unrelated reason ;)01:17
azeemslangasek: yeah, am trying to get the opensync-0.22 packages compiled for hardy01:18
slangaseks/archive/library/01:18
azeembut apparently I have to add bogus changelog entries with "hardy" in it for that01:18
slangasekazeem: no, you just need a .changes that points at hardy01:18
azeemah, that'd work as well then01:18
azeemthanks01:18
soundrayHi, I've been assigned a bug and don't know why. What should I do?01:19
slangaseksoundray: well, you might want to mention the bug # for starters :)01:20
azeem Subject: [PPA debian-opensync] Accepted: opensync 0.22-2 (source)01:20
azeemyay01:20
soundrayslangasek: #45724601:20
slangaseksoundray: um... is that a Debian bug number?01:20
slangasekit's not a Launchpad bug number01:21
soundrayslangasek: yes... but the email was sent to the address I use on launchpad.01:21
soundrayI guess it's just a mistake. I know hardly anything about netatalk :)01:21
azeemsoundray: what's your launchpad login and/or the address you use on it?01:22
soundrayazeem: soundray; ubuntubug@soundray.de01:23
azeemweird01:23
slangaseksoundray: that's very strange, the only related open bug I see on netatalk source is bug #195011, which is not linked to the Debian version and not assigned to you01:23
ubotuLaunchpad bug 195011 in netatalk "netatalk fails assertion, afpd won't launch" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/19501101:23
slangasekoh, are you perhaps in the bugsquad group?01:23
soundrayslangasek: no.01:23
azeemsoundray: if it was a mail you got, maybe you can put it on a pastebin01:24
soundrayI've only ever reported a few bugs in feisty (unrelated)01:24
slangaseksoundray: ah, heh, there's the problem - you have a login named "ubuntubug" :)01:24
azeemslangasek: do you think there's a realistic chance in getting opensync-0.22 into hardy?01:25
soundrayazeem: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/58823/01:25
slangaseksoundray: so yes, someone mistook you for the Ubuntu bug squad; "ubuntubug" seems like a poor choice of a launchpad ID :)01:25
slangasekazeem: hmm, how do I answer that objectively... :)01:26
soundrayslangasek: okay, that would explain it01:26
soundrayI guess it's safe to ignore -- or should I pass it on to someone?01:27
slangaseksafe to ignore, it's already been reassigned to the correct party01:28
soundrayslangasek, azeem: thanks for your help.01:28

Hobbseesparr_: man dpkg, to the section on "set-selections" usually07:12
sparr_well, more with apt than with dpkg07:12
sparr_thanks though07:12
slangasekdpkg --set-selections lets you hold packages, it doesn't do pinning07:12
sparr_ok, how about a contradiction between the man page for apt* and the workings of current versions?07:13

slomosuperm1: what exactly is the reason why mythtv is in multiverse?09:18
superm1slomo, two things09:19
superm1lame09:19
superm1and the ffmpeg that is shipped within it09:19
slomosuperm1: also you can give me debdiffs for new uploads, that's easier than mentors i guess ;)09:19
FujitsuArgh, more embedded ffmpeg?09:19
slomosuperm1: hm... couldn't those be stripped (and build against system ffmpeg)?09:19
superm1slomo, well whichever you'd prefer09:19
superm1well lame yes - it's a very ugly patch to do so, but a mandriva guy wrote one09:20
superm1the ffmpeg unfortunately can't use the system wide one09:20
slomosuperm1: i prefer debdiff ;)09:20
superm1they have some enhancements that upstream hasn't accepted09:20
slomogreat09:20
superm1not to mention now its built against faac/faad too09:21
superm1and liba5209:21
slomo:)09:21
Fujitsusuperm1: Can't you kick upstream into being sane?09:21
superm1Fujitsu, i've tried.09:22
tbfso let's see if my inet is reliable enough today for uploading next gnome-lirc-properties iteration09:22
superm1so some of these things could be loosened, but the functionality of the app goes down greatly09:22
superm1tbf, i'm looking it over right now09:22
FujitsuI guess that does rely on ffmpeg upstream not being stupid, though L(09:22
Fujitsu*:(09:22
RAOFFujitsu: Don't the ffmpeg developers recommend embedding it?09:22
slomosuperm1: ok, unless upstream is a bit saner it has to be in multiverse, yes ;) can't they go a modular way, having all problematic bits in another source package? ;)09:22
tbfsuperm1: how that? 0.2.4 upload failed09:22
superm1i just dget'ed it right now09:22
superm1it built09:23
superm1the one from march 5th09:23
FujitsuRAOF: Considering they don't have any kind of API stability, probably.09:23
superm1Fujitsu, RAOF yeah they regularly merge with upstream, but recommend staying away from the tree for ~2-3 weeks to sort out problems from API stability09:23
slomosiretart: what's the plan with experimental's ffmpeg (and ubuntu)? :)09:24
superm1slomo, well after hardy comes out, i'm going to redo all of the packaging09:24
RAOFBecause it's obviously impossible to have a fast multimedia library with a stable API >:(09:24
superm1during that time i'll see about loosening deps09:24
superm1and seeing how nicely it comes across09:24
slomoRAOF: not really... it just needs some work and thinking ;)09:25
RAOFThat obviously needed a <sarcasm> tag :)09:25
superm1haha09:25
superm1but assuming that it keeps an embedded ffmpeg, this will still be a bit messy09:26
slomosuperm1: found the upnp-mythtv patch for totem?09:26
slomosuperm1: also, if you have a debian-compatible mythtv package please tell me ;)09:26
superm1slomo, i've been busy all week with some other stuff, it09:26
superm1's on my list for tomorrow :)09:27

tbfslangasek: gentoo too09:38

Na-Fiannnot that i need to approve of it or anything:p just curious14:41
