[00:11] <awen_> soren: thanks for all the help... now I just have to fix the two lintian errors :)
[00:11] <soren> zul: You'd think so, wouldn't you :)

[00:36] <awen_> Anyone wants to have a look at a new package? http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?package=uniconvertor ... all suggestions+comments from RainCT has been incorporated
[00:38] <protonchris> Hobbsee: Would you be will to look at bug 200292 ?

[00:46] <awen_> he :)
[01:28] <Hobbsee> someone should update awn.
[01:30] <RAOF> By 'update' you mean FFe?
[01:31] <RAOF> And grab 0.2.6, or whatever the release is?
[01:31] <Hobbsee> yeah, looks like it
[01:31] <RAOF> Hobbsee: And probably introduce a plugins package? ;)
[01:32] <Hobbsee> yeah
[01:32] <RAOF> I suppose so.
[01:32] <RAOF> I might actually _use_ an updated awn.
[01:45] <bddebian> Heya
[01:46] <protonchris> Hey
[01:46] <bddebian> Hello protonchris
[01:47] <emgent> heya gang!
[01:47] <bddebian> Heh, hi emgent
[01:54] <protonchris> bddebian: Are you up for taking a look at a package that needs sponsoring (motu-release has already approved)?
[01:55] <bddebian> protonchris: What package?
[01:55] <protonchris> bug 190744
[01:55] <ubotwo> Launchpad bug 190744 in libgdamm3.0 "Request: Upgrade libgdamm3.0 to upstream version 2.9.81" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/190744
[02:03] <bddebian> protonchris: I'm lazy, do you have a source package posted somewhere?
[02:04] <protonchris> bddebian: just a sec
[02:09] <protonchris> bddebian: I can post the files to my server.  Will that work?
[02:09] <bddebian> Sure
[02:10] <protonchris> bddebian: http://protonlab.net/~chris/libgdamm3.0/
[02:14] <bddebian> And why is it libgdamm3.0-2.9.88?
[02:15] <protonchris> Should be libgdamm3.0-2.9.82
[02:16] <bddebian> Yeah, sorry, but why 3.0 with 2.9.82?
[02:21] <protonchris> I am not sure why they decided to call it 3.0 when it was first packaged.  I assumed that upstream was leading up to a 3.0 release.
[02:22] <RAOF> Presumably that's the soname, right?
[02:24] <bddebian> Sure, just looks odd :)
[02:25] <protonchris> That package produces a libgdamm3.0-9 binary package.  The soname is 9.
[02:28] <bddebian> Uhm, that's even worse :)
[02:38] <bddebian> Do we care that the soname doesn't match the package name?
[02:39] <tritium> Hey there, bddebian :)
[02:39] <bddebian> Hi tritium
[02:39] <protonchris> Well, we also have a libgdamm1.3 in the archive with a soname of 8 :)
[02:39] <bddebian> heh
[02:40] <bddebian> protonchris: OK, uploaded, it's all yours now! :)
[02:40] <protonchris> Thanks.
[02:47] <protonchris> bddebian: Will the bug close itself since I put the bug number in the changelog?
[02:47] <bddebian> It's supposed to
[02:47] <protonchris> Cool, thanks again.

[06:16]  * Hobbsee wonders why our eclipse version is so old
[07:06] <RAOF> Hobbsee: Because everyone hates java.
[07:07] <RAOF> It's like the stillborn progeny of gods too dark to comprehend, animated by sheer bloodymindedness.
[07:07] <Hobbsee> RAOF: awww
[07:07] <RAOF> Or, alternatively, just because no MOTU actually _uses_ Eclipse.
[07:08]  * RAOF 's Java developing friend is particularly impressed with the way Eclipse can happily consume > 3Gb of memory.
[07:08] <dholbach> good morning
[07:08] <RAOF> 'Morning dholbach!
[07:08] <RAOF> Now, let there be a chicken/pasta/pesto bake thing prepared!
[07:10] <dholbach> hi RAOF
[07:17] <RAOF> Hobbsee: You use Gnome-Do, right?  How would you feel in principle about a FFe for it?  I'd need to actually cut a release of it, but trunk has some significantly cool new features.
[07:17] <Hobbsee> RAOF: what features?
[07:20] <RAOF> Hobbsee: The inteface is a little shinier, but the really killer feature is that it now learns what you use most, and prioritises hits by that.
[07:20] <Hobbsee> RAOF: excellent.  can we get some of the plugins too?
[07:20] <tonyyarusso> oooh, I like that.
[07:21] <RAOF> Also, on the plugins front, there's an awesome Launchpad plugin, and better error catching in Do.
[07:21] <RAOF> So it should be harder for plugins to bring down Do :)
[07:21] <RAOF> Hobbsee: There's _already_ a gnome-do-plugins package, right?
[07:22] <Hobbsee> RAOF: yummy.  i din't ahve that.
[07:22] <Hobbsee> RAOF: yeah, i want to see the LP one in there too
[07:22] <RAOF> Right.  So, were I to cut a release we'd pick up the freshly merged LP plugin, and a couple of other less awesome ones.
[07:23] <RAOF> Hobbsee: Incidentally, Do is an awesome Rhythmbox interface :)
[07:24] <RAOF> Were you using Do without the plugins?  That'd be quite a lot less awesome.
[07:25] <Hobbsee> yeah
[07:25] <Hobbsee> anyway, yes, i'd approve the uvfe for it
[07:25] <Hobbsee> the mroe plugins it has, the more usfeul it is
[07:27]  * tonyyarusso thinks you should include zelut's apt-get plugin
[07:28] <RAOF> Right.  So, I'll try and get my ducks in a line so that I can cut a release & package on the weekend.
[07:28] <RAOF> Maybe.  It's not soumething that *I* use :)
[07:28] <RAOF> tonyyarusso: ^^^
[07:29]  * RAOF goes back to roasting capsicum
[07:29] <tonyyarusso> RAOF: nah, but it looks nifty
[07:34] <RAOF> Man I need a parsley plant...
[08:30] <RAOF> Dear aptitude: _FASTER_!  I want to see if I can unbreak X :)
[09:20] <\sh> moins
[09:23] <DaveMorris> who do I need to poke to get a patch I provided to a bug built and released?
[09:27] <DktrKranz2> DaveMorris: could you please indicate which bug you are referring to?
[09:29] <DaveMorris> Bug #195433
[09:34] <DktrKranz2> bug 195433
[09:38] <DaveMorris> https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/opensg/+bug/195433
[09:38] <DaveMorris> since ubot seems to be broken
[09:41] <DktrKranz2> DaveMorris: It was me who commented on it.
[09:42] <DktrKranz2> it's uncommon to depends on -dev packages, though.
[09:42] <DktrKranz2> does opensg require files in these -dev packages?
[09:44] <DaveMorris> opensg-dev needs to fulfil against those since thats whats returned by osg-config (and pkg-config since I based it on the osg-config results)
[09:46] <DaveMorris> so atm when you try and link against opensg it fails as it can't find the libs to link against
[09:46] <DktrKranz2> does it happens at build time?
[09:47] <DaveMorris> yes (not build time for opensg, but build time for programs linking against opensg)
[09:49] <DaveMorris> I missed them off when I built the package as I didn't try linking against it in a clean environment (have now learnt :) )
[09:50] <YokoZar> I have a package (zsnes) that recently started building on amd64.  The last upload added amd64 arch to the control file, and it builds fine if I use dpkg-buildpackage.  However, looking it up on launchpad, the build daemon isn't even trying to build it on amd64, and gnome-app-install has it unclickable still
[09:50] <YokoZar> Do we have to manually tell the buildd to attempt amd64 ?
[09:51] <DktrKranz2> DaveMorris: ah... have you some examples?
[09:52] <DaveMorris> yeah, give us a sec
[09:53] <DktrKranz2> (brb)
[09:59] <DaveMorris> DktrKranz2:  http://foss.it.brighton.ac.uk/epoch/opensg-example.tar.gz
[09:59] <DaveMorris> To build create a symbolic link in the trunk dir called OpenSG pointing to the trunk dir (ln -s . OpenSG), then use make (there are targets to install make the test if you wanted, you need to run the test though).  It depends on the package libopensg-core-dev
[10:10] <RAOF> YokoZar: No, AFAIK you shouldn't have to explicitly ask the buildd to build it (or, rather, having amd64 in the arch field *is* explicitly asking for it).
[10:11] <YokoZar> RAOF: ok then...so what do I do here?
[10:11] <YokoZar> https://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/zsnes/1.510-2ubuntu1  <-- note it doesn't even try
[10:12] <DktrKranz2> DaveMorris: ok. I'll have a look this evening then. Thanks.
[10:12]  * RAOF has a look
[10:13] <DaveMorris> thanks
[10:15] <RAOF> YokoZar: I can't see anything obvious, and I don't really have time for a more detailed poke.
[10:15] <YokoZar> thanks RAOF.  Do you happen to know who I should bother?
[10:15] <RAOF> Probably anyone on #ubuntu-devel would work :)
[10:17] <\sh> YokoZar: ask pitti ;)
[10:20] <awen_> RainCT: thanks for the help yesterday... i've changed it to use pycentral, and uploaded it again, if you have time for a look: http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?package=uniconvertor

[12:36] <zul> dholbach: ping
[12:38] <ScottK2> pochu: Weren't you going to take care of getting spe updated?
[12:44] <speakman> hi, motu ;)
[12:45] <speakman> A new version of "most" is released since nov 2007 and now it finally support vt100 colors!
[12:45] <\sh> wtf is "most"?
[12:45] <speakman> Does ubuntu have any maintainer of that package, or does it come straight from Debian?
[12:45] <speakman> \sh: How about apt-cache show most ?
[12:45] <persia> speakman: Unfortunate timing.  We're nearly to BetaFreeze for hardy, although it sounds like a welcome improvement for intrepid.
[12:45] <\sh> speakman: just tell me what it is...
[12:46] <speakman> \sh: a pager. A great one. The best. :)
[12:46] <speakman> (try export PAGER=most and "man printf" e.g.)
[12:46] <\sh> speakman: you mean like "less" or "more"
[12:46] <speakman> env PAGER=most man printf
[12:46] <speakman> \sh: yes, but alot better
[12:47] <speakman> (why not make it default in ubuntu btw?)
[12:47] <persia> speakman: It's imported from Debian, although MOTU coordinates the state in Ubuntu, and so is the Maintainer in many senses.
[12:47] <speakman> persia: ok, thanks for explaining. Is it possible to make it in interpid?
[12:47] <speakman> sorry, hardy
[12:47] <\sh> speakman: well gnu less or more are mostly standards in unix derivatives != linux :)
[12:48] <speakman> \sh: give it a try. Install it, run "env PAGER=most man printf", an uninstall it if it wasn't as expected. ;)
[12:48] <persia> speakman: Yes, but with significant difficulty, and only if it is really important.  At this point, most developers are focused on bugfixing and making sure the distribution is in a state for release, so updates don't get very much attention.
[12:49] <speakman> persia: I see. One pretty big thing is that you can finally pipe bzr diff output (and as long as bzr doesn't color the diff it self, pipe it through "colordiff") through it!
[12:50] <speakman> else you're stuck with less (or even more, cant remember)
[12:50] <pochu> ScottK2: AFAIR Stani was going to release 0.8.4e so we can get rid of the symlinks and of our own setup.py. But I won't be able to upload it until next week anyway
[12:50] <pochu> ScottK2: I'm not even sure whether I could make it for beta, so if you can do it that'd be nice
[12:51] <persia> speakman: That sounds great, but I'm not sure it competes with the > 219 packages that currently cannot be installed for developer attention.
[12:51] <pochu> s/I could/I'll be able to/
[12:52] <speakman> persia: guess you're right... too bad I didn't see it earlier. Released nov 2007.
[12:52] <ScottK2> pochu: OK.
[12:52] <ScottK2> pochu: I thought it was d that did that?
[12:53] <persia> speakman: Yes, too bad indeed.  In December or January would have been a good time for the sync.  In any case, it ought be eligible for backports in May, so it won't be too long post-hardy to wait.
[12:53] <speakman> persia: actually, it isn't even in debian yet. Just msgd "mako" about it
[12:54] <speakman> ehm... is there any good tutorial (or gui) how to make my own deb package?
[12:54] <pochu> ScottK2: sorry, who did what?
[12:54] <persia> !packaging
[12:56] <speakman> !packaging
[12:56] <speakman> ?
[12:56] <broonie> Normally there's a bot that would have given you a canned answer to your question in response to that command.
[12:56] <persia> Err.  That should have provided a link to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide
[12:57] <persia> (not that it is especially good, but it's a place to start reading)
[12:58] <speakman> oh, thanks alot. I'll start there. :)
[12:58] <speakman> (and thanks for generally being polite and open-minded!)
[13:05] <ScottK2> pochu: I thought it was 0.8.4d that had the changes so the symlinks could be gotten rid of.
[13:07] <ScottK2> \sh: Did you see my response to your ffmpeg ping?
[13:07] <\sh> ScottK2: nope
[13:08]  * \sh is busy doing stress tests and gnuplotting :(
[13:09] <pochu> ScottK2: according to Stani's mail it's fixed upstream, and he said he will release it as 0.8.4e if everything worked fine
[13:11] <\sh> ScottK2: what was it? :)
[13:14] <ScottK2> \sh: I was asking what testing you'd done on this.
[13:14] <ScottK2> pochu: Would you please get in touch with him then.
[13:15] <\sh> ScottK2: build tests works...and functional: I used it here to move the metadata from several of our h.264 FLVs to the correct position to stream it via mod_flv_streaming/lighty
[13:15] <\sh> here == company :)
[13:16] <ScottK2> \sh: OK.  2nd question: If siretart likes it, how come he didn't upload it?
[13:16] <\sh> ScottK2: because he just got the bug report yesterday...and he is busy as I understood...
[13:16] <ScottK2> \sh: This is a part of the system I know little about, so I'm a bit nervous about uploading it.
[13:16] <siretart> ScottK2: sorry, I was terribly busy yesterday, I looked at the debdiff, it looks okay to me
[13:17] <ScottK2> siretart: Understand.
[13:17] <siretart> but I didn't testbuilt it yet. however I'm confident with that upload. (I assume we're talking about the missing tool, right?)
[13:18] <\sh> siretart: yepp
[13:19] <ScottK2> \sh and siretart: OK.  I'll test build and upload if it builds
[13:20] <\sh> ScottK2: thx a lolt

[13:32] <siretart> ScottK2: thanks!
[13:46] <ScottK2> \sh and siretart: Uploaded.
[13:46] <ScottK2> \sh: Next time please put the bug in the changelog (I added it).
[13:47] <pochu> ScottK2: he said he was going to be offline for a few days as he was going to be an uncle. He'll likely release it once he's back

[14:15] <hellboy195>  . But if you look at the patch that DaD created ,.. Was that terrible documentated? Btw you are again the last uploader ^^

[14:19] <smarter> hi
[14:20] <hellboy195> \sh: ^^ so DaD is f***** up?
[14:22] <\sh> hellboy195: well, what is the problem anyways?
[14:22] <smarter> could someone please look at kde4-style-bespin 0.1~svn080206-0ubuntu2?  http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/details.py?package=kde4-style-bespin
[14:22] <hellboy195> \sh: if that are remaining changes or not ...
[14:22] <smarter> It only fixes a bug
[14:23] <smarter> in  the packaging
[14:23] <\sh> hellboy195: did debian upstream include the kscreensaver desktop file ?
[14:23] <hellboy195> \sh: no
[14:23] <\sh> hellboy195: then it's the remaining change :)
[14:24] <Adri2000> \sh: it seems to me that the problem is that there are 2 or 3 changes you didn't mention in the changelog
[14:24] <\sh> hellboy195: the gnome stuff was included in 2.6.8-7 and 2.6.8-7ubuntu1 readded the kscreensaver desktop bits
[14:25] <hellboy195> \sh: and what about the ectricsheep-2.6.8/debian/patches/05_multihead_support.dpatch
[14:26] <\sh> hellboy195: well, I just checked the last uploader ;)
[14:26] <hellboy195> \sh: rofl. that means?
[14:26] <\sh> hellboy195: the last uploader forget to mention this as well
[14:27] <hellboy195> \sh: ha!

[14:27] <\sh> hellboy195: well, he and I didn't drop it...
[14:27] <\sh> hellboy195: check dbts if the bug is reported for the multihead patch
[14:30] <hellboy195> \sh: it isn't. so I have to include it and report that back to debian folks :)
[14:32] <\sh> hellboy195: try to include that in a debian package (means create a sid package with the patch included and make a debdiff )
[14:33] <hellboy195> \sh: what's the difference?
[14:33] <\sh> hellboy195: the buildsystem :) try to build the resulting new debian package against a sid pbuilder/sbuild chroot and make it running :)
[14:35] <hellboy195> \sh: never did that before but ok ^^. and thx again
[14:35] <\sh> hellboy195: just create pbuilder for sid (it's the same way as for hardy but s/hardy/sid/ ;))
[14:36] <hellboy195> \sh: I know that but I mean when I reported changes back to debian I did it the normal way ;)
[14:37] <\sh> hellboy195: having a debdiff is sometimes better for the maintainer ;) he just needs to testbuild/test run it ... in no time ;)
[14:38] <hellboy195> \sh: submitodebian actually genereates a debdiff !?
[14:40] <\sh> hellboy195: dunno...I#m doing it manually

[14:40] <\sh> and it looks worth an FFe
[14:40] <zul> bobbo: looks good
[14:41] <bobbo> zul; cool, thanks
[14:41] <hellboy195> \sh: ^^ I do it automatically but double check it :)  then hf with lighty ^^
[14:42] <hellboy195> dholbach: I still make stupid mistakes xD (nn merge) sry for that nonsense
[14:43] <zul> bobbo: uploaded
[14:43] <dholbach> hellboy195: no problem
[14:43] <bobbo> zul; thanks for reviwing/sponsoring
[14:50] <\sh> hmm..
[14:50] <\sh> I'm building lighty 1.4.19 it helps us a lot for hardy...
[14:55] <hellboy195> \sh: what about electricsheep.desktop
[14:55] <hellboy195> ??? My debdiff: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/12606769/electricsheep_2.6.8-9ubuntu1.debdiff
[15:37] <bobbo> zul; the rpm update FTBFS
[15:37] <zul> bobbo: Ill take a look
[15:46] <\sh> ScottK2: I need your advise: do you think an update of lighttpd 1.4.19 is a bugfix or a new upstream (read for more info: http://www.lighttpd.net/2008/3/10/1-4-19-made-in-germany) :)
[15:47] <sistpoty|work> hi folks
[15:49] <ScottK2> looking
[15:49] <\sh> ScottK2: for me it looks more like an bugfix release...
[15:51] <ScottK2> \sh: I'm not certain.  It looks like it's good to have.  If you think it's bugfix, I'm not going to argue it.
[15:52] <\sh> ScottK2: I didn't see any new features, TBH...it builds clean, I added all diffs between our actual hardy version to actual debian sid version...so for me, I would just upload but I already filed a bug report anyways :)
[15:54] <ScottK2> OK.  It's not clear to me if you have a change where they didn't support a required http feature and now they do if that's a bug or not.
[15:54] <ScottK2> But as I said, I won't argue it,
[15:55] <\sh> ScottK2: ok...let's got the FFe way :) I mean, I have everything in place..and it's only a matter of two people approving it :)
[15:58] <\sh> was it motu-release or ubuntu-release team...
[15:58] <\sh> ah motu-release ;)
[15:58] <\sh> ScottK2: bug #201439 if you want more input :)

[16:01] <ScottK2> \sh: I don't.  I'd say just upload it.
[16:02] <\sh> ScottK2: "In the Name of Castle Greyskull" I will ;)
[16:04] <\sh> done
[16:08] <rockstar_> After speaking with nealmcb last night, I'd like to become a motu.  Can someone describe the standard environment you work under to do tests and fixes?  Are you all running Hardy on a development system?
[16:09] <\sh> rockstar_: get familiar with pbuilder/sbuild environments...chroot debootstrap and things like that...
[16:09] <jdong> pbuilder is the standard build environment for most of us
[16:10] <jdong> and no, not all of us are running Hardy, though a good number of us do
[16:10] <jdong> running hardy is not a requirement
[16:10] <rockstar_> \sh, jdong thanks.  I'll dig in there.
[16:13] <nxvl> ScottK2: already merged the bugs you ask me to merge

[16:21] <nxvl> ScottK: did you notice it?
[16:21] <mathiaz> dholbach: can you add me to the ubuntu-*-sponsors teams ?

[16:24] <dholbach> mathiaz: done
[16:24] <mathiaz> dholbach: thanks
[16:26] <ScottK> nxvl: Interesting idea, but if we have ebox, how interested are people going to be?
[16:28] <nxvl> ScottK: as i said on the wiki, ebox is web based, so it *CAN* be a security issue at some point keeping in mind that is "remote" aplication
[16:28] <ScottK> nxvl: I agree and this would be useful that you don't want a web server running on.
[16:29] <ScottK> nxvl: I'm just not sure how big a share of servers that is.
[16:29] <nxvl> ScottK: also i have the big idea to write a framework for developing curses and gtk modules for it, so it cas be used in the future for full administration of the system, in server and desktop
[16:29] <ScottK> Why gtk?
[16:30] <nxvl> for desktop and home servers
[16:30] <nxvl> for ibex i want it only to be focused on gtk
[16:30] <nxvl> err
[16:30] <nxvl> on curses
[16:30] <nxvl> for ibex+1 maybe add gtk support
[16:30] <nxvl> for home servers and to be able to use it on desktop and home servers
[16:31] <nxvl> i want it to be writing using layers, so the UI is completely separeted from the backend
[16:31] <nxvl> so it can be used for adding a gtk support, but that would be for ibex+1
[16:31] <\sh> nxvl: make it independed...write a backend with all functionality...and prepare frontend calls for having multiple frontends (gtk, qt, curses, web, WHU)
[16:32] <nxvl> i don't think i have the time to have it ready for ibex if i also want it to be gtk
[16:32] <nxvl> \sh: thats what i mean when talking about layers
[16:33] <nxvl> ScottK: also we need to discuss it more widely on UDS, but i don't want to go there with empty hands
[16:34] <ScottK> Sure.
[16:35] <zul> *cough* func - https://hosted.fedoraproject.org/func/ *cough*
[16:35] <nxvl> that's why as for your feedback, i know you, and you are a retailer person, so your opinion is really important for me
[16:36] <nxvl> zul: 404
[16:36] <nxvl> :P
[16:36] <nxvl> oh! it was a certificate warning :P
[16:36] <nxvl> zul: but it's only for network, not for services
[16:37] <zul> nxvl: extend it then why invent the wheel?
[16:37] <nxvl> zul: because i want it to be modular
[16:37] <\sh> nxvl: it's named "MVC" (Model View Controller) ;)) It inherits different design patterns :)
[16:37] <nxvl> also if i based it on other applications, my idea is more like YaST, but a working one
[16:38] <nxvl> \sh: yep, here it's called "por capas" which is literaly transtaled as "by layers"
[16:40] <\sh> nxvl: I just read a cool book about design patterns...most of the stuff was already known and I am/was using those patterns already...but the naming is quite interesting (just because you use the same "language pattern" with other fellow developers) :)
[16:41] <\sh> now I just need to get the design pattern books from the GoF (Gang Of Four) ;)
[16:41] <nxvl> \sh: can you point me at it please?
[16:42] <\sh> nxvl: to have a really cool reading about this dry stuff, use http://www.amazon.com/Head-First-Design-Patterns/dp/0596007124/ref=pd_bbs_sr_2?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1205340103&sr=8-2
[16:42] <\sh> nxvl: forget about the java parts inside...it's worth a reading
[16:43] <nxvl> \sh: thnx
[16:46] <\sh> nxvl: I bought the "Heads First Java" and the "Heads First Design Patterns" and now I know Java and all those nifty coolish naming schemes for standard stuff ;)
[16:47] <\sh> nxvl: and it's really cool...not the usual content about rewriting the documentation parts...new idea of learning things very fast...

[16:58] <highvoltage> ah :)
[16:58] <\sh> ok...time to go home :)
[16:58] <\sh> for ibex I have already 3 new packages on my list...
[16:58] <\sh> grmpf
[16:58] <\sh> ok...cu later
[17:01] <jussi01> jst a quick confirmation, Ive uploaded a debdiff to a bug, then subscribed ubuntu-universe-sponsors, anything else I need to do?
[17:02] <Adri2000> no
[17:07] <jussi01> Adri2000: thank you, I assume that was aimed at me?
[17:07] <Adri2000> yes :)
[17:08] <neh> any chance of xmonadcontrib 0.6 getting in to hardy? I see xmonad is in, but all the best stuff about xmonad is in contrib. If there's something I can work on to help get it in, just point me in the right direction...
[17:17] <ScottK> neh: The freeze for new packages for Hardy was a month ago.
[17:19] <neh> ScottK: xmonad .6 went in 2 days ago...
[17:20] <sistpoty|work> neh: that was a dependency of the ghc6 transition iirc
[17:22] <ScottK> neh: There are freeze exceptions for good reasons.
[17:23] <neh> ok, so no xmonadcontrib. I wouldn't know for sure if I didn't ask, would I? :-)
[17:24] <ScottK> Right
[17:24] <ScottK> If you can and are sufficiently motivated, see the Universe section of wiki.ubuntu.com/FreezeExceptionProcess
[17:30] <neh> fwiw, the package is in debian sid: http://packages.debian.org/source/sid/xmonad-contrib
[17:32] <Laney> neh: But quickly! BetaFreeze is tomorrow

[17:36] <jdstrand> hi emgent
[17:36] <emgent> hi jdstrand :)
[17:36] <jdstrand> I uploaded the vlc update
[17:37] <jdstrand> the patches were good, however there were a couple of things with the debdiff (that I just fixed)
[17:37] <emgent> thanks
[17:37] <jdstrand> when referencing a CVE, it is preferred that you use mitre rather than nist
[17:38] <Amaranth> why is that?
[17:38] <jdstrand> while not a strict debian policy issue, common practice dictates that the line width for the data portion of the changelog not exceed 80 characters
[17:38] <jdstrand> Amaranth: convention more than anything else (perhaps bec nist is US based?)
[17:39] <jdstrand> emgent: also, the 'gutsy' debdiff didn't have the -security tag
[17:39] <emgent> uhm ok thanks
[17:40] <jdstrand> emgent: nothing showstopping, just little things
[17:40] <neh> So, if I file a bug to request syncing xmonad-contrib from debian, is sid the appropriate source?
[17:41] <emgent> jdstrand, :)
[17:42] <james_w> neh: yes, though it will happen automatically for hardy+1.
[17:42] <neh> james_w: right, but I'm hoping to get it for hardy...
[17:50] <rockstar_> I've been looking through the bugs, triaging and finding dupes.  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/subversion/+bug/43423  This bug seems to be fixed.  Is there a reason why it hasn't been closed?

[17:56] <neh> Laney: thanks, done
[17:57] <Laney> I'm quite interested in having a go with xmonad - wish I had the power to influence any decision :<
[17:58] <neh> Laney: it's quite nice once you get used to a haskell config file.
[17:59] <Laney> Yeah, I'm a Haskeller myself. Hence the interest :)
[17:59] <neh> ah, I'm not, but I like it anyway

[18:00] <allee> torkel: okay, thx
[18:02] <torkel> allee: I will try aufs again when I have some more time, but that will propably not happen the next couple of weeks (unless I'm getting very bored preparing the setup for our new clusters)
[18:04] <Khajavi> I want to package my php software
[18:04] <Khajavi> how to?

[18:05] <Khajavi> thanks alot
[18:05] <Khajavi> :-[
[18:07] <Khajavi> another question? what is the different between code.launchpad and sourceforge?
[18:08] <hexmode> Khajavi: different services
[18:08] <Khajavi> which is better?
[18:08] <hexmode> launchpad, of course
[18:08] <Khajavi> can you say why?
[18:08] <hexmode> seriously, what do you want to know?
[18:09] <hexmode> sf is filled with ads
[18:09] <highvoltage> well, at least code.launchpad.net don't have any ads.
[18:09] <Khajavi> I want package my php then introduce it to my freinds
[18:09] <highvoltage> hexmode: snap :)
[18:09]  * hexmode high fives highvoltage
[18:09] <highvoltage> hexmode: ^5
[18:10] <Khajavi> is it possible that my package go to ubuntu repository?
[18:10] <hexmode> Khajavi: if you put your pkg in a ppa
[18:10] <hexmode> your friends can point to your ppa and upgrade automagically
[18:10] <highvoltage> or you can have it sponsored by a MOTU if you want it to go into Universe.
[18:11] <Khajavi> uhhoom
[18:11] <hexmode> and, of course, you can do that on launchpad and not sf
[18:11] <RainCT> Khajavi: some differences: Launchpad has no ads, project registations need no approval, LP hosts Bazaar branches (SF CVS and SVN) and anyone can create as much of those as he wants in any project, bugs can be linked to external bug trackers and the BTS in general is more usable, etc.
[18:11] <RainCT> Khajavi: if you want more details better ask in #launchpad, this channel is for packaging
[18:12] <Khajavi> thnak RainCT
[18:12] <Khajavi> tutorial to be an MOTU?
[18:12] <Khajavi> how can I be MOTU?
[18:14] <Iulian> Khajavi: See /topic
[18:14] <Khajavi> yes I find it:-D
[18:28] <Laney> neh: I'm doing a test build of xmonad-contrib to add to the bug report. Hopefully that will give it some weight.

[18:42] <lesshaste> hi
[18:45] <neh> Laney: great, thank you

[19:01] <Laney> neh: Now you just need to poke the right people ;)
[19:03] <ScottK> superm1: You're mythtv-plugins backport depwaits on several archs due to lack of fftw-dev.  Would you please look into it.
[19:03] <ScottK> Laney: Or wait your turn because people get annoyed with excessive poking.

[19:04] <Laney> neh, ScottK: OK sorry.
[19:04] <Laney> I thought there was a pokage system in effect, my bad.
[19:04] <ScottK> candrews: New package freeze for Hardy was a month ago.  You come back in mid-May and work on getting your package into Debian in the mean time.
[19:05] <candrews> ouch - I guess I missed that by a while :-)
[19:05] <candrews> Does the package need to be in Debian to get into Ubuntu?
[19:05] <ogra_cmpc> no, but it helps :)
[19:06] <candrews> Cool - do you know who I talk to in Debian land? (IRC channel, web site, etc) I already filed a bug with them, but I do not know what to do next.
[19:06] <ScottK> candrews: No, but if you get it into Debian the it is automatically imported into Ubuntu.
[19:06] <ScottK> candrews: #debian-mentors on OFTC.
[19:06] <ogra_cmpc> we release in 6 weeks or so ... if you get it into debian during that time we'll sync it with the frist sync for the next release
[19:08] <candrews> thank you - I'll work on that, and hopefully the rest will be automatic.
[19:14] <promag> hello hello
[19:15] <promag> my package installs some php scripts, but after install they belong to root:root
[19:15] <mok0> promag: yes, that's right
[19:15] <promag> how to change to www-data:www-data ?
[19:16] <promag> well I know chmod :P
[19:16] <promag> but is there a right way?
[19:16] <mok0> promag: why do you want to do that?
[19:16] <geser> promag: chown?
[19:17] <promag> ops yes chown
[19:17] <promag> because, for instance, those php scripts will need to have write access to a cache directory
[19:17] <promag> and that cache directory is a sibling of those php scripts
[19:19] <mok0> promag: you may need to do it in a postinst script
[19:19] <promag> using chown?
[19:19] <mok0> dpkg-statoverride
[19:20] <promag> ok ty
[19:20] <promag> and to install a apache site?
[19:20] <promag> a2ensite?
[19:21] <slangasek> scripts should not be owned by www-data
[19:21] <slangasek> if you need to do that, you're doing it wrong
[19:21] <slangasek> having scripts owned by www-data means that the webserver process can overwrite them
[19:22] <slangasek> --> security hole
[19:22] <promag> it's better to have the cache dir with mode g+rw and be owned by root:www-data ?
[19:23] <slangasek> what do the cache dir permissions have to do with the permissions on the scripts?
[19:23] <promag> slangasek: nothing really
[19:23] <promag> :)
[19:24] <slangasek> then you can have a cache dir that's www-data:www-data, that's fine; but don't chown the scripts themselves
[19:24] <slangasek> and a simple chown is appropriate - dpkg-statoverride would be exceptional

[20:26] <DktrKranz> hellboy195, it does. Some bugs could be useful for release
[20:27] <DktrKranz> and I'd like everyone has a chance to get into hardy in time
[20:27] <hellboy195> hardy is nearly over ^^ but I know what you mean
[20:28] <DktrKranz> hardy is almost done, now it's time to fix everything we can
[20:29] <hellboy195> DktrKranz: but I can tell you. I'm keen on merging new hot stuff for ibrex ^^
[20:29] <DktrKranz> u-u-s queue ships bugs almost done, so they really deserve to be reviewed
[20:33] <hellboy195> DktrKranz: I'm already excited. A new adventure for me. Bugfixing :)
[20:38] <hellboy195> \sh: hoi :) looked at my debdiff?
[20:44] <\sh> hellboy195: sorry no...I'm busy with private stuff
[20:44] <hellboy195> \sh: np. I'm just wondering why we added a .desktop for Gnomescreensaver
[20:45] <\sh> hellboy195: it's a helper
[20:45] <\sh> hellboy195: a replacement for gnome-screensaver actually...
[20:46] <hellboy195> \sh: not mentioned in the Changelog ,...
[20:46] <\sh> hellboy195: of course it is...
[20:46] <\sh>   * Fix typo in debian/rules to really install gnome-screensaver
[20:46] <\sh>     .desktop file into the screensavers directory (LP: #131748, and others)
[20:47] <\sh> in 2.6.8-6ubuntu2 ... as I said this afternoon ... it was forgotten to take it up to the actual version
[20:47] <\sh> hellboy195: it was introduced in gutsy
[20:47] <hellboy195> \sh: I don't say something bad about the last uploader ^^
[20:48] <nxvl> ScottK: isn't Bug #15485 a kmail bug?
[20:48] <\sh> hellboy195: actually mario forgot to mention it in 2.6.8-7ubuntu1 and I was trusting him....nothing more nothing less...no big deal :)
[20:49] <hellboy195> \sh: but especially for new contributor it's hard because the motu who approves the merges always complains about your incomplete changelog entry ^^
[20:52] <\sh> hellboy195: just mention the forgotten changes (write: last uploaders forgot to mention those changes..please be careful next time, kthx) :)
[20:52] <\sh> hellboy195: and yes, those things are happening and we all are glad that other motus are catching those things
[20:53] <hellboy195> \sh: or the contributors ^^
[20:53] <hellboy195> like me
[20:53] <hellboy195> xD
[20:53] <\sh> hellboy195: yes motus :)
[20:53] <\sh> hellboy195: I'll count you already in...
[20:54] <hellboy195> \sh: ehm. nice but that's really to early. I only did ~60 merges/syncs ..
[20:54] <\sh> hellboy195: that's good :) time to apply
[20:55] <hellboy195> \sh: you make me laugh :)
[20:55] <\sh> did I mention, that wmii is wonderful when working mostly on the console? :)
[20:55] <\sh> hellboy195: that was serious
[20:56] <hellboy195> \sh: ähm. I *still* make mistakes and I want to gain experience in other parts of the motu work before I apply ;) (As I said, *only* merges/syncs so far)
[20:56] <cody-somerville> :)
[20:56] <\sh> hellboy195: we all make mistakes..which is good...it makes us more human :)
[20:58] <hellboy195> \sh: yeah but I want to be a motu but I'm not feeling like one. Give me some more months :)
[21:00] <DktrKranz> hellboy195, nobody is perfect, and nobody knows everything. just ask when unsure
[21:00] <hellboy195> DktrKranz: yeah. But I still make partially newbie mistakes and I want to reduce that ;)
[21:01] <hellboy195> \sh: but I'll apply for membership in ~ubuntumembers. you can vote for me :)
[21:01] <DktrKranz> hellboy195, you'll have some time to improve
[21:02] <hellboy195> DktrKranz: yeah I already said. Some more moths before I apply :)
[21:02] <DktrKranz> good work, then
[21:02] <hellboy195> xD
[21:02] <DktrKranz> my caps lock is broken...
[21:02] <hellboy195> DktrKranz: any news about fail2ban?
[21:03] <DktrKranz> didn't look properly
[21:03] <DktrKranz> i'm focused on u-u-s
[21:04] <hellboy195> k
[21:14] <ScottK2> hellboy195: If you've only done merges/syncs so far, then you should find some bugs to fix.
[21:15] <hellboy195> ScottK: That's my plan ;)
[21:15] <ScottK2> Great.
[21:15] <ScottK2> hellboy195: What kind of packages are you interested in?
[21:16] <hellboy195> ScottK: hmm. can you give examples?
[21:18] <hellboy195> wb DktrKranz ^^
[21:18] <ScottK2> hellboy195: Do you use Ubuntu/Kubuntu?  Interested in server?
[21:18] <DktrKranz> that capslock was killing me
[21:18] <hellboy195> ScottK: Ubuntu :)
[21:19] <hellboy195> DktrKranz: bad capslock ^^
[21:19]  * ScottK2 won't be much help then.
[21:19] <hellboy195> ScottK: kubuntu/server expert?
[21:19] <hellboy195> DktrKranz: being a motu before Andrea returns would be somehow funny xD
[21:22] <DktrKranz> hellboy195, funny, but not improbable
[21:24] <hellboy195> DktrKranz: he will be absent soo long? :(
[21:24] <DktrKranz> or you won't take so long, your choice :P
[21:25] <hellboy195> DktrKranz: hrhr ^^. The only thing which is limitating me is school. last 3 moths, last year ,..
[21:27] <DktrKranz> hellboy195, scholl first!
[21:27] <DktrKranz> *school
[21:28] <hellboy195> then I have to change something now ^^
[21:29] <hellboy195> brb
[21:30] <RainCT> argh.. damn epiphany package
[21:30] <RainCT> always install the wrong one :P
[21:30] <RAOF> epiphany-_browser_ :)
[21:31] <Fujitsu> Has anybody ever wanted epiphany, not epiphany-browser?
[21:32] <RAOF> What _is_ epiphany, anyway?
[21:32] <Fujitsu> Some game, IIRC.
[21:32] <Fujitsu> Ah, maintained by joerg.
[21:34] <ScottK2> hellboy195: There's plenty of good work available in Bug #199014.
[21:37] <RainCT> yeh, some game.. if at least it was a good game :P
[21:39] <hellboy195> ScottK: yeah. I see. great :) btw.  I hope I can count on you when I apply for membership in ~ubuntumembers
[21:40] <hellboy195> DktrKranz: And I promise you *if* I'm a motu one day. I'll join u-u-s . I know that it's really important :)
[21:41] <DktrKranz> \o/
[21:42] <RainCT> awen_: neither lintian nor linda are happy with your package
[21:42] <hellboy195> DktrKranz: and to make you happy ^^
[21:42] <hellboy195> ScottK: just can I take/assign one to me if I want?
[21:43] <ScottK2> hellboy195: As long as it's not assigned to someone else.
[21:43] <awen_> RainCT: they are happy when i run them on the .changes file?
[21:43] <hellboy195> ScottK: that's clear ^^
[21:43] <KasimirGabert> I've been having troubles getting REVU to work for nearly a month now! (well, a month ago, and then today and yesterday still)
[21:43] <KasimirGabert> would somebody be able to help me?
[21:43] <KasimirGabert> just a few quick pointers?
[21:43] <KasimirGabert> my question is basically
[21:43] <RainCT> awen_: They can do two sorts of reviews, on the source and on the binary; the source is clean, but the .deb no. I'm posting their complains in REVU; most of the errors should go away adding a call to dh_strip.
[21:43] <KasimirGabert> it says it is uploaded
[21:44] <KasimirGabert> but nothing happens
[21:44] <RainCT> KasimirGabert: have you joined the universe package contributors team?
[21:44] <KasimirGabert> yes
[21:44] <KasimirGabert> let me double check
[21:44] <KasimirGabert> :)
[21:44] <KasimirGabert> and thanks!!!
[21:44] <KasimirGabert> :)
[21:45] <KasimirGabert>                 Your involvement                                                                     You are a member of this team.
[21:45] <KasimirGabert> so I should be
[21:45] <awen_> RainCT: okay, actually makes sense, that you can do that too... i'll look at it, and thanks
[21:46] <RainCT> KasimirGabert: Do you have your PGP key on Launchpad, and have you used the same one to sign the package(s) you uploaded?
[21:46] <KasimirGabert> yes
[21:46] <RainCT> KasimirGabert: uhm.. what package was it?
[21:46] <KasimirGabert> xboardloader
[21:46] <KasimirGabert> at least I believe it is the same key
[21:47] <KasimirGabert> I don't see why it would be otherwise
[21:47] <KasimirGabert> I do have another PGP key
[21:47] <KasimirGabert> but it is associated with my GMail account
[21:47] <KasimirGabert> and not with the account I use to sign my packages
[21:48] <RainCT> KasimirGabert: the package is there
[21:48] <KasimirGabert> hm...
[21:48] <KasimirGabert> okay
[21:48] <KasimirGabert> maybe I'm going crazy
[21:48] <RainCT> KasimirGabert: xboardloader_0.1.4-1ubuntu1.dsc, xboardloader_0.1.4-1ubuntu1.diff.gz, xboardloader_0.1.4.orig.tar.gz
[21:48] <KasimirGabert> :)
[21:48] <KasimirGabert> hm...
[21:48] <RainCT> KasimirGabert: and also xboardloader_0.1.3-1.tar.gz, xboardloader_0.1.3-1ubuntu1.diff.gz, xboardloader_0.1.3-1ubuntu1.dsc
[21:48] <KasimirGabert> it doesn't seem to be at http://revu.tauware.de/index.py
[21:48] <KasimirGabert> and I don't seem to have an account..
[21:49] <RainCT> there are some other xboardloader uploads marked as rejected though
[21:49] <KasimirGabert> No REVU account for kasimir@kgprog.com exists yet.
[21:49] <KasimirGabert> recent ones?
[21:49] <KasimirGabert> why would they be rejected?
[21:49] <KasimirGabert> bad quality of package?
[21:49] <KasimirGabert> sorry about this, and thank you a lot
[21:50] <RainCT> KasimirGabert: Feb 20, Feb 21 and Mar 12
[21:50] <KasimirGabert> hm...
[21:50] <KasimirGabert> do you know why they aren't showing up at revu.tauware.de ?
[21:51] <RainCT> KasimirGabert: aren't they neither on http://revu.tauware.de/index.py?archived=true?
[21:51] <KasimirGabert> nope
[21:51] <RainCT> (sorry my connection is damn slow right now.. actually it's quite often damn slow :()
[21:51] <KasimirGabert> ah
[21:51] <KasimirGabert> I'm sorry
[21:52] <KasimirGabert> I'll be happy when residential Internet speeds in the US are like in Japan :)
[21:52] <RainCT> ok I see.. all files were rejected (don't really understand REVU yet :))
[21:52] <KasimirGabert> hm...
[21:52] <KasimirGabert> okay
[21:52] <KasimirGabert> what does that mean?
[21:52] <KasimirGabert> or... what am I doing horribly wrong?
[21:52] <KasimirGabert> I tried to follow the directions...
[21:53] <RainCT> but I don't know why.. (there are errors in the changelogs, but I don't think that those would cause a reject)
[21:53] <RainCT> siretart: are you around?
[21:53] <RainCT> awen_: (forgot to say that I've already posted the comment)
[21:54] <KasimirGabert> hm... I have multiple email addresses on Launchpad
[21:54] <KasimirGabert> does that have anything to do with it?
[21:54] <RainCT> KasimirGabert: I don't think so, a lot of us have many e-mails there
[21:54] <KasimirGabert> hm...
[21:55] <KasimirGabert> and I have been part of the group for a long time
[21:55] <KasimirGabert> well, since I first tried this
[21:55] <RainCT> awen_: beside dh_strip, "architecture: any" was already right (it was any the last time I looked at it, or?), and there's a manpage missing
[21:56] <awen_> RainCT: i kind of got convinced into arch all ... but yes it should be changed back to any
[21:57] <KasimirGabert> RainCT: could it be because I uploaded them back when my default email was something else that they are all being rejected?
[21:57] <awen_> do we have some good info about making a man-page (remember something with "po" or something like that) but couldn't find info
[21:58] <RainCT> awen_: heh sorry for the confusion :)
[21:58] <RainCT> awen_: there's some info on using POD or docbook on the wiki
[21:58] <RainCT> awen_: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/SupplementaryFiles
[21:59] <awen_> RainCT: no worries... combining python and c does confuse :)
[21:59] <awen_> RainCT: thanks! ... i'll have a look
[21:59] <RainCT> awen_: or just look at some other man page.. there are many groff (the native format in which manpages are written) manpages in ubuntu-dev-tools for example
[22:00] <ScottK2> awen_: Grab one that looks good.  Make your changes to make it for your package.  Edit until lintian is quiet (don't forget -I)
[22:00]  * RainCT goes to eat something
[22:00] <awen_> RainCT: okay, that's another option. thanks... but point one should be to find out, what that binary actually do :)
[22:01] <RainCT> awen_: heh, yes, that can be the most difficult thing (or the easiest) :)
[22:01] <RainCT> KasimirGabert: sorry that I couldn't be of more help.. let's see if siretart comes around, he will probably know better
[22:01] <RainCT> s/more/much
[22:01] <KasimirGabert> okay
[22:01] <KasimirGabert> thanks
[22:01] <KasimirGabert> :)
[22:11] <hellboy195> DktrKranz: I think I'll wait until friday night/saturday morning and then assign beagle to you :)
[22:11] <DktrKranz> not sure if I'll be able to upload it during beta freeze
[22:12] <ScottK2> DktrKranz: Since it's in universe you'll be able to upload, it'll just have to be manually published.
[22:13] <hellboy195> DktrKranz: ah np. just in generel becaues I know that you won't forget it. at least because we nearly talk to each other every day :)
[22:14] <hellboy195> ScottK: btw, what's the official replacement for python-xml ?
[22:15] <RainCT> hellboy195: python (>= 2.4)
[22:15] <DktrKranz> ScottK2, are there particular restrictions or standard guidelines apply?
[22:15] <DktrKranz> (e.g. asking release-managers before pushing)
[22:16] <hellboy195> RainCT: cool, thx :)
[22:16] <RainCT> ScottK2: what does the beta freeze mean (for MOTUs)? on the wiki it only mentions main/restricted
[22:21] <RainCT> KasimirGabert: if you tell me your email I'll check if you're in REVU's db
[22:24] <ScottK2> RainCT: Not much.  Just the publisher is on manual, so stuff doesn't get uploaded right away.  slangasek said he'd clarify all that when he announced the actual freeze
[22:25] <DktrKranz> good!
[22:25] <RainCT> ScottK2: ok, thanks
[22:29] <hellboy195> RainCT: want merges? ^^
[22:29]  * DktrKranz hides
[22:30] <hellboy195> DktrKranz: ^^. You've done a lot in the past ;)
[22:30] <DktrKranz> now it's other MOTU's turn? :)
[22:31] <hellboy195> I want to give you a break :)
[22:31] <hellboy195> besides that it's faster than I'm waiting for a sponsor from u-u-s ^^
[22:37] <hellboy195> hm merges aren't that important. I want to see my FFe go through ^^
[22:38] <hellboy195> off for today. gn8 folks :)
[22:39] <DktrKranz> mh... debian's devscripts has'nt Launchpad-fixed-bugs tag...
[22:42] <KasimirGabert> siretart: would you be able to help me with a REVU issue?
[23:28] <bddebian> Heya gang
[23:29] <ScottK2> Heya
[23:29] <bddebian> Hi Scott
[23:30] <slangasek> moin
[23:30] <bddebian> Heya slangasek
[23:31] <awen_> RainCT: changed it back to arch: any, and added a man-page > http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?package=uniconvertor ... thanks again
[23:38] <doko> ScottK: online?
[23:39] <ScottK2> yes
[23:39] <ScottK2> doko: What's up?
[23:39] <doko> do you have time to waste?
[23:40] <ScottK2> Not particularly.  If you have something that needs doing, I can see about it.  Herding the python-xml removal is still taking a bit of time.
[23:40] <RainCT> awen_: no problem :)
[23:40] <RainCT> good night all
[23:40] <Hobbsee> what is it with people who file uvfe's right before freezes?  :)
[23:41] <doko> yep, the python-xml removal would be nice as well
[23:41] <doko> here is the idea:
[23:41] <awen_> yes... good night everyone
[23:41] <doko> the Contents files are regenerated: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/hardy/
[23:42] <Hobbsee> and sync requests.  for new packages.
[23:42] <doko> now determine every package which has files in /usr/share/pycentral/ ... and rebuld it
[23:42] <slangasek> doko: heh, twitch
[23:43] <doko> sladen: ?
[23:43] <slangasek> doko: /me misses binNMUs :)
[23:43] <doko> slangasek: heh, you appear as sladen first ...
[23:44] <doko> yeah, I probaly can't do that before Monday, or is universe still unfrozen?
[23:44] <ScottK2> doko: I'm fairly certain I don't have time for a project like that.
[23:44] <doko> np
[23:44] <ScottK2> However, I'm pretty sure we can find someone.
[23:45] <doko> ScottK2: would you have time to mentor this person?
[23:45] <ScottK2> doko: Yes.
[23:45] <doko> cool!
[23:45] <ScottK2> I've got someone in mind too.
[23:45] <ScottK2> It's a bit late for them right now, but I'll try and catch then tomorrow.
[23:46] <ScottK2> Wait a minute
[23:46] <doko> slangasek: already done for main ...
[23:47] <KasimirGabert> would any of you guys have a few seconds to look through and see why all of my uploads to REVU are being rejected? I'm trying to get started with Ubuntu... and not able to upload for some reason :P
[23:47] <ScottK2> doko: Does it need to look for the files or can it look for build-dep on python-central?
[23:47] <ScottK2> KasimirGabert: You do realize we aren't at the part of the development cycle where we take new packages, right?
[23:47] <doko> ScottK2: you'll get some false positives when just looking for d. on p-c
[23:48] <KasimirGabert> ScottK2: I do understand that, I just feel that I might as well figure out how to upload stuff
[23:48] <ScottK2> KasimirGabert: OK
[23:48] <KasimirGabert> I'm not asking for it to be looked over right now.. :)
[23:48] <doko> but that shouldn't harm
[23:48] <KasimirGabert> the package is xboardloader ... and it seems to have been denied numerous times
[23:48] <KasimirGabert> but I have no idea why
[23:49] <ScottK2> doko: That'll be easier than I was thinking at first.  Maybe I can.
[23:49] <ScottK2> KasimirGabert: Try during the European day/evening and look for sistpoty.
[23:49] <KasimirGabert> okay, thanks
[23:49] <KasimirGabert> :)
[23:49] <doko> ScottK2: grep ^usr/share/pycentral/ Contents-i386 | awk '{print $2}' |grep 'universe' | awk -F/ '{print $3}'| sort -u > pycentral.universe
[23:50] <protonchris> slangasek: thanks for looking at bug 200292.  I'll see if I can get the upload sponsored tonight.
[23:50] <ScottK2> doko: THanks
[23:51] <slangasek> protonchris: no problem
