[00:00] civija: It doesn't look like it -- unless you also change the section to contain "universe" [00:02] fwiw, I just tried it with the hello package and it worked fine [00:02] updated the maintainer to ubuntu-core-dev [00:03] Laney: try the --section switch... [00:03] mok0_: I just shut down my eee :( [00:03] Laney: --section=universe [00:03] eeek [00:03] mok0_: update-maintainer *should* change Maintainer to XSBC-Original-Maintainer, any time that it succeeds in doing anything [00:03] :-) [00:04] though sometimes you have to tell it which section your package is going to, yes [00:14] civija: does the most recent version of the package (ie. the first line in debian/changelog) contain 'ubuntu' ? [00:16] Adri2000: no [00:16] I'd like to change the versioning of a kernel module package to use the kernel ABI in the first part, but the package is currently at version 15 already. Looks like I need an epoche, correct? [00:16] civija: that's why it won't change the maintainer then [00:17] Adri2000: so i should first run dch -i, write change ..., and then run update-maintainer? [00:17] blueyed: e.g., or a suffix appended with + [00:17] civija: yes [00:18] Adri2000: ok, tnx [00:18] i'll try that [00:18] crimsun: i.e. 15+2.6.24-12.1? (15 is the current version) [00:19] blueyed: that's the idea, though I suppose I tend to match the 12.x portion against the headers, so I think 12.22? [00:20] blueyed: (though, if you're tweaking it, that's up to you) [00:25] crimsun: well.. I've thought that it wouldn't be important for the package and therefore I use my revision there at the end. [00:25] blueyed: fair enough. [00:26] It should get moved to linux-ubuntu-modules anyway in the long term I think, so.. [01:11] Heya gang [02:05] heya bddebian. === Yasumoto is now known as [CA]Yasumoto === tritium is now known as [NM]tritium [02:08] Hi ScottK2 === [NM]tritium is now known as tritium[NM] [02:20] Nightrose: ?

It says it can't install libjack-dev [03:53] does anyone know a possible reason for it? [03:54] You don't have universe enabled in your pbuilder environment? [03:55] StevenK, how can I enable it? [03:55] uhm, strange problem.. when i try to edit control and add Maintainer, when i debuild, change Maintainer with original.. [03:55] some idea? [03:56] emgent: There's a debian/control.in file? [03:56] phpmyadmin package.. [03:56] uhm just a moment [03:56] Legendario: Um, add universe to your components and pbuilder update with --overwrite-config [03:57] !pbuilder | Legendario [03:57] Legendario: pbuilder is a system to easily build packages in a clean chroot environment. To get started with PBuilder, see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/PbuilderHowto [03:57] Legendario: actually follow ^& [03:58] StevenK: no only control [03:58] hum, no. There is only a debian/control file, not a debian/control.in [03:58] trye [03:58] *true* [03:58] StevenK: other idea? :° [03:58] emgent: Then I'd need to read a build log [03:59] i saw that in debdiff [03:59] when i run debuild, cleaned my edit in debian/control file [04:00] strange.. [04:00] emgent: Yes, so something in the build process is changing it. So I'd need to read a build log to point out what is doing it. [04:04] ok, so, i had to edit my ~/pbuilderrc file, right? Thanks guys [04:05] StevenK: i think this "yada rebuild control" [04:06] Nooooooooooooo [04:06] * StevenK runs screaming [04:07] yada has a "Please break my builds in hard to track, near-random ways" option? [04:07] Yes. That is its default mode of operation [04:07] * RAOF shudders [04:09] * RAOF gets around to actually _filing_ his "sensors-applet does nothing but segfault" bug. === adorablepupp1 is now known as adorablepuppy [04:14] uhm...

[04:19] StevenK: is in the package, i only applied security patch [04:19] hy cody [04:20] heya emgent :) [04:21] emgent: Since it's yada, I'd suggest skip the maintainer mangling, explain to the security team why you did it, and then let them figure it out if they really care. [04:22] i will do, thanks :) [04:22] LaserJock: don't wind the poor chap up [04:24] Heya ajmitch [04:24] good afternoon [04:24] ajmitch: heh [04:24] Good to seeing you around. I've been missing your smiling face. [04:25] * ajmitch isn't here [04:26] ajmitch: While your not here, is your RC bug tracker by chance running elsewhere too? [04:26] nope [04:27] * ajmitch has no static IP address to serve it from [04:28] is ubuntuwire still down?? [04:28] LaserJock: AFAIK yes. Still no imbrandon [04:28] * ScottK2 has had the flu this week and didn't get around to calling him again. [04:29] * ajmitch hasn't seen imbrandon on irc for a long time [04:29] partly because I don't usually watch irc now [04:29] Well it is nice to see you again even if you aren't here. [04:29] * ajmitch is usually in channel, at least [04:30] just not often talking to people [04:30] * ajmitch would think that the rc bug tracker thing isn't as useful now anyway [04:31] ajmitch is a stalker [04:31] true story, that [04:31] ajmitch: Why not? [04:32] * ajmitch has been mercilessly stalking laserjock, watching his every movement [04:32] ScottK2: because of other lists of bugs that should say similar things [04:34] ajmitch: OK. Maybe I need to go look around for other lists then. Your is the one I always used. [04:35] that 'really fix-it' list would help a bit, if the bug link has been set in launchpad [04:35] ScottK ScottK2 ping [04:35] * ajmitch would need to find somewhere sane to put the rc bugs list [04:35] https://bugs.launchpad.net/gutsy-backports/+bug/202049 [04:35] Launchpad bug 202049 in gutsy-backports "Please backport new MythTV themes from Hardy" [Undecided,New] [04:36] superm1 informed me that you wanted to see those tested seperately [04:37] I'm getting the feeling that Hardy's gonna get release without quite a few good new upstream release and bug fixes [04:37] things are really moving fast at this point [04:37] that's expected [04:37] rhpot1991: Yes. I'd also like to see the depwait for the basic mythtv backport cleared up too. [04:37] yeah, just a bit disappointing [04:37] * ajmitch is going to wander home now, nice talking to you again :) [04:38] cya ajmitch [04:38] ScottK2, sorry i've been busy with some other stuff than to look into the details of why that happened on the non standard arch's [04:38] i'll get to it soon === Frogzoo_ is now known as frogzoo [04:39] ajmitch: See ya. Thanks for stopping in. [04:39] * ScottK2 wonders if he highlights on php? [04:41] ajmitch! [04:41] emgent: then fix the package. [04:42] yep [04:42] first I'd like talk with keescook [04:42] then i will do :P [04:43] (hi Hobbsee) :) [04:43] hiya [04:50] Hobbsee, Would you do me a big fat favour and regenerate and upload xubuntu-meta for me? :) [04:58] ScottK2, it looks like they are sorting themselves out some how [04:59] only lpia is failing now [04:59] and its because of missing libx264-dev [04:59] which is in gutsy multiverse... [04:59] Hobbsee: yes? [04:59] just not on lpia [05:00] Hobbsee: I'll take care of the above xubuntu-meta update [05:00] slangasek, thanks :) [05:02] superm1: OK. Well that's progress. Is libx264-dev actually missing no lpia? [05:02] ScottK2, https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/gutsy/+source/x264/+builds [05:02] it failed to build on lpia [05:02] looking [05:02] on gutsy at least [05:02] worked on hardy though [05:03] ah i see why [05:03] superm1: Why? [05:03] in hardy it has nasm [i386 lpia] as build depends [05:03] slangasek: thanks [05:03] ajmitch: hello [05:03] failed due to missing nasm in gutsy [05:04] on lpia [05:04] superm1: Maybe an SRU then? [05:05] well i guess that really depends on how important mythtv on lpia is to gutsy [05:05] Probably not very. [05:06] But I like to see things complete. [05:06] i gathered as much :) [05:06] It's not such a big deal, but if it's an easy fix it'd be nice. [05:06] superm1: Let me know when you think the plugins are ready to go... [05:07] so i'm not sure the extra effort to right that is worth it. If someone complains that they want their mythtv 0.21 on an lpia gutsy (who has those other than developers for moblin stuff)?, i'll take care of it [05:07] ScottK2, you mean the themes? [05:07] Yeah' [05:07] That [05:07] the themes look fine to me, rhpot1991 has a gutsy box that i asked him to do the backport to his ppa and install to [05:07] none of them failed to build or anything similar [05:07] so i'd say not a worry there [05:08] rhpot1991: Did you finish testing them all? [05:08] * ScottK2 notices the time, remembers he has the flu, and decides to go to bed. [05:08] Good night all. [05:09] ScottK2, yeah as indicated in the bug, they all built and installed [05:09] see ya though [05:10] pm me the bug and I'll look at it tomorrow. [05:11] alrighty [05:11] night [05:14] i am having the following error message: error: could not create '/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/blueman': Permission denied [05:16] what am i supposed to do? [05:18] Legendario: what are you *trying* to do? [05:18] building a package? [05:18] yes [05:19] you need to tell the upstream rules to install to a subdirectory of debian/ instead of to the root filesystem [05:19] I don't know what the convention is for python modules; for stuff that uses autoconf, the convention is make DESTDIR=debian/tmp install [05:20] i think it's python setup.py --destdir debian/tmp install [05:20] or something [05:20] i dunno, python project that use setup.py should die :) [05:21] cody-somerville: I can do xubuntu-meta if nobody else has started on it already. [05:21] The convention for python modules depends on what debhelper you're using, pretty much. [05:21] TheMuso, slangasek said he'd do it. [05:21] slangasek, Have you started on xubuntu-meta yet? :) [05:21] oh ok [05:22] cody-somerville: started dput, yes [05:22] TheMuso, Okay. Thanks anyhow :) [05:22] cody-somerville: np [05:22] slangasek, what to do if a package already in gutsy-backports just needs to be rebuilt? Should I file another backport bug, or can you just press a magical dch -i "no changes, just rebuilding"? [05:23] superm1: I don't have any magical buttons for that; I think a sourceful upload on your part is going to be the most straightforward [05:24] slangasek, directly to gutsy-backports, or where to? [05:24] superm1: yes [05:24] slangasek, okay i'll take care of that [05:24] thanks [05:24] superm1: oh, are you in the backporters group? If not you probably should clear it with jdong or ScottK first [05:24] RAOF, what do you mean by the convention for python modules depends on what debhelper you're using? [05:24] slangasek, no i'm not in the backporters group. [05:25] let me do a test build then and put it in a proper bug so that they dont need to think much [05:25] superm1: right :) [05:25] should i edit the setup.py file or a file in the debian folder? [05:26] I thought backports were automatic copies of hardy source packages [05:26] there are sourceful backports as well [05:27] Legendario: normally you should not have to edit setup.py. I think the suggestion Amaranth gave you first looks most promising [05:29] slangsek, sorry. but i didn't understand what to do exactly [05:31] could you please be more specific? [05:34] slangasek [05:36] Legendario: you know that debian/rules is the file that controls how packages are built? [05:36] Legendario: you need to edit that file; either in a straightforward way based on Amaranth's suggestion, or perhaps in a non-obvious way if you're using cdbs [05:38] slangasek, this is a line in my debia/rules: $(MAKE) DESTDIR=$(CURDIR)/debian/blueman install [05:39] is this what i was supposed to do? [05:39] I don't know [05:39] or do i have to add something else? [05:39] you haven't given any context about your package, that I can see [05:39] I can't tell you what's right or not without ever seeing the package in question [05:40] slangasek, well, it is a python software but it has a make file and a setup.py file [05:40] I can tell you that line will pass the DESTDIR variable to the upstream makefile when calling 'make install'. I don't know whether that will do the right thing for this upstream software. [05:44] should i substitue the $(MAKE) DESTDIR=$(CURDIR)/debian/blueman install, for python setup.py --destdir debian/tmp [05:46] ? [05:47] Legendario: What I meant was: where you want the modules to end up depends on whether you're using pysupport or pycentral. [05:50] RAOF, i don't understand a thing about python, so need straighter directions. Does it help? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59562/ [06:01] Legendario: That doesn't have enough context to be very useful. debian/rules would be good, as would be information about what you're actually trying to package and how to build it (can you build it without trying to make a package?) [06:02] ok [06:05] RAOF, i don't think this is going to help much, since it is a normal debian/rules file [06:05] http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/59564/ [06:11] Legendario: Right, so it's practically a dh-make template. [06:11] Legendario: So, the other question remains. Can you actually build this program without trying to package it? [06:12] If you can't do that, you've got no hope of packaging it :) [06:15] RAOF, i didn't try to build the source. You can take a look on the program site: http://blueman.tuxfamily.org/ [06:16] Legendario: Heh. So, a fundamental part of packaging is to encapsulate the build processes of the thousands of packages we have. If you don't know how to build it, you can't package it :) [06:17] And, that website ( http://blueman.tuxfamily.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=50&Itemid=60 ) tells me you're building it wrong. [06:19] RAOF, what am i supposed to do? [06:19] Well... "to install run sudo python setup.py install". [06:20] So your debian/rules is going to have to call setup.py at some point :) [06:21] What you actually want to do is to work out what parameters their setup.py takes, what the build actually does (ie: if it builds any arch-dependent code such as shared libraries, you'll probably need to call setup.py once for each python version, etc) [06:36] slangasek, how is the xubuntu-meta upload going? [06:38] cody-somerville: well enough, aside from me forgetting to accept it from the queue [06:38] slangasek, :) [06:39] RAOF, i could do it. thanks RAOF [06:52] could do it. if someone can review it, i would apreciate it: http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?package=blueman [09:13] good morning [09:15] Someone care to remind me of the "right" way to do a diff for a small (like 6-character) change to a source package? Something like diff -rN somesuch I think. [09:17] diff -ruN? [09:17] That's the one. [09:18] rock! :) [09:18] I also need a little bit of versioning advice. [09:19] I'm dealing with nvu --> kompozer, which basically amounts to a renaming as far as our users are concerned, but they have different versioning schemes. The version of nvu in the repos is 1.0-0ubuntu4 and 1.0final-2ubuntu2 for dapper and edgy, respectively, [09:20] while the version of kompozer is 0.7.10-0ubuntu3. I need to make the virtual package 'nvu' provided by the kompozer source package such that any users with nvu installed will be upgraded to kompozer. [09:22] So basically, I a) need some scheme for making virtual packages have a different version than their source package, and b) need a suggestion for a version higher than 1.0 that I can assign it. [09:27] dholbach: any idea how to approach that? [09:27] you'll need to add an epoch [09:28] (1:0.7.10-0ubuntu3) [09:28] do we [09:28] http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-controlfields.html [09:28] readin' [09:28] do we get that package from debian? [09:29] if so we should coordinate the epoch change with debian [09:29] it might permanently prevent us from syncing if our version is higher than the one in debian [09:29] 5.6.12 Version [09:30] dholbach: It does not yet exist in Debian. (I'm hoping to have a chance to start addressing that next week) [09:30] right [09:30] so adding an epoch should be fine [09:30] So I apply the epoch change to the entire source package I take it? [09:31] you add it to the version in your debian/changelog entry [09:31] (do epochs show in things like apt-cache policy?) [09:31] gotcha [09:31] daniel@lovegood:~$ LC_ALL=C apt-cache policy gthumb [09:31] gthumb: [09:31] Installed: 3:2.10.6-0ubuntu1.1 [09:31] Candidate: 3:2.10.6-0ubuntu1.1 [09:31] Version table: [09:31] *** 3:2.10.6-0ubuntu1.1 0 [09:31] ... [09:31] so 1:0.7* > [presumed 0:]1.0* [09:32] yes [09:32] It never ceases to amaze me how many things the dpkg people already thought of. [09:32] daniel@lovegood:~$ dpkg --compare-versions 1:0.7 gt 1.0 && echo true [09:32] true [09:32] daniel@lovegood:~$ [09:32] yeah, that's right :-) [09:33] the shoulders of giants :) [09:33] hehe [09:42] Does a printing JOB run as user? [09:42] If i try to print something i get D [14/Mar/2008:10:33:21 +0100] [Job 35] Error: /usr/Brother/inf/brFAX1940CNrc :cannot open file !! [09:51] dholbach: So do I need to touch _anything_ other than debian/changelog for this? [09:52] do the normal update you intended to do, make all the changes necessary, then add the epoch [09:52] that should be it [09:53] The epoch issue is the only thing I'm addressing today, so yeah. [09:54] dholbach: oh, one thing though - should I bump the ubuntu version, ie 1:0.7.10-0ubuntu4, or leave it as 1:0.7.10-0ubuntu3? [09:56] as it's a new upstream version, I'd say 1:0.7.10-0ubuntu1 [09:57] Oh. I guess that makes sense. [09:58] ROCK [09:59] Paper? [10:01] So something like "diff -ruN kompozer-0.7.10/ sourced_for_diff/kompozer-0.7.10/ > debdiff.txt", and attach debdiff.txt to the bug? [10:05] you can use debdiff old.dsc new.dsc [10:08] And iirc, that's since I only made changes to debian/, but diff -ruN would be needed if there were any changes in the actual source - is that right? [10:08] or same thing both ways? [10:14] you don't need to keep two directories if you run debdiff on the .dsc files [10:15] but you can use diff -ruN too [10:16] gotcha [10:17] All righty, "should" all be set to go at Bug #200349.

[12:42] sistpoty|work: The gfortran transition is a LOT of work, because it might entail more than just changing the packaging. I've sometimes had to work hard to get a program to compile under gfortran. [12:43] mok0: Debian has done the vast majority already. [12:43] That's where I've got most of the bits that I've done (which was just finishing stuff that doko had started). [12:43] Well, the list on LP is still very long [12:43] mok0: yes, there should be only 2-3 packages not done in debian left [12:43] It was made more difficult by the fact that they all FTBFS due to one of doko's other changes. [12:43] sistpoty|work: so it's mostly merging? [12:44] mok0: I hope mostly syncing :) [12:44] ok... phew [12:44] sistpoty|work, The test builds were successful.

[12:54] jono, Just let me do a sound test [12:55] * cody-somerville sighs. [12:55] I get it to work last night and ofcourse it stops working today. One second, a reboot should fix it [13:09] dholbach: around? [13:09] How do you make use of the crash_report that is attached to some bugs?

[16:08] dholbach: if you install ubuntu it will also be installed ^^ you do you mean if I remove it and then install ckermit? [16:09] yep [16:10] dholbach: hmm damn it. :( But a merge isn't really worth it now [16:11] maybe we should just forward that change to debian, then sync it with intrepid?

[18:26] same with imgseek so false alarm, anyway, please test it instead "removing since package depends on python-all-dev" [18:27] POX_: I think the bug description already has that note.

[19:20] I think it's fairly straightforward but I can file one if you think we should have the paper trail ;-) [19:21] LaserJock: I'd say not. Reading the gfortran bug, sistpoty suggested a blanket FFe for the transition, and I said OK, so if you want to you can interpret that as being pre-approved.

[19:22] ScottK: both. ubuntu has beta2 ( beta3, RC, now final) [19:22] hellboy195: If there's new features between beta2 and final, then we need an FFe.

I can test on ppc on a friend of mine [20:53] bglibs is small, will try on sparky and hope that if it builds on sparc then also on powerpc [20:54] it FTBFS the same way, so I guess it will build [20:54] in the meantime, I'm testing the other packages [21:06] ajmitch: could you please join in #ubuntuwire?

[21:39] LaserJock: Probably. It'd be confusing for the archive admins to get syncs against the main transition bug [21:39] LaserJock: that would be good, not to clutter up the huge transition bug, I guess [21:39] that's what I was thinking [21:40] LaserJock: though that needs manual closing of the bug's task in the FFe :/ [21:41] sistpoty: I think that's an OK thing though [21:41] I'm not very fond of the "changelog closes bugs" feature anyway ;-) [21:42] heh [21:42] LaserJock: since vi has syntax highlighting for it, even I can do it :P [21:43] I always forget to add it to the changelog [21:43] Nafallo: what do you mean by "current"?

I am stuck [22:10] apart from that, I am planning to update bluez-gnome and try elisa [22:10] cody-somerville: right, was looking at debian changes, sorry [22:10] sistpoty, :) [22:13] cody-somerville: ok, all changes are fine, only needing to wait until my build finishes (I guess 1 hour or so), then I'll upload it.

[22:18] i mean which would u recomend [22:19] Ssam`: I suggest you start with fixing bugs in existing packages. You will learn more and faster. [22:19] Ssam`: the first link (it should hopefully contain links to lots of other good documentation as well) [22:19] one silly question......are all packages created the same or similar way? [22:20] like debian , rpm, tars? [22:20] will i learn them differntly? [22:20] Ssam`: essentially.. read the packaging guide [22:20] Ssam`: kind of... all packages are created from a (debian) source package, where debian/rules (a makefile), target binary is run to produce a deb [22:21] so u can learn debian packaging and rpms would be an auto or simpler? [22:21] ahh kewl [22:21] i ma read through packaging thanks [22:21] Ssam`: no, rpm is done differently [22:21] lol [22:21] (though I've forgotten the details) [22:21] u had to say that? [22:21] u couldent wait till i left [22:21] :P [22:21] Ssam`: maybe this will be helpfull too https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDeveloperWeek [22:21] heh [22:22] read the packaging sessions [22:22] i will [22:22] i wanna learn all packaging [22:22] thanks mate [22:31] 0o0... persia: Are you going to sponsor *hic* starfighter? :D [22:31] cody-somerville: As soon as I get to sponsoring, if it is still there [22:31] persia, Okay, thanks :) [22:34] ScottK, ScottK2: I see you uploaded mok0's wxwidgets2.6 debdiff for python-xml removal. but you didn't upload wxwidgets2.8. is it just because of lack of time or something, or is there anything wrong in it?

[23:15] * RAOF hates on intltool [23:18] There's presumably some tool for populating po/POTFILES.in with all the files with translatable strings in them... but none of the intltool-* tools seem to do this, and google is silent on intltool documentation! [23:22] I am facing very weird problem with FF, yelp, devhelp. Some fonts are so large that I can not read the page. Can anyone help debug this issue? [23:22] 1/join #ubuntu-it-chat [23:22] ups, sorry [23:26] jdong: Compared to Fx3b3, or compared to Fx2? [23:31] Please someone help me, it is making my browsing experience very bad. :-( [23:33] Fujitsu: compared to even Fx3b3 [23:33] Fujitsu: it feels like fx2->fx3b3 all over again. [23:33] cody-somerville: ghc6 uploaded :) [23:33] webpages just simply seem to render instaneously [23:33] jdong: Oh, nice. [23:34] so much so that I'm working on a backport already :D [23:34] sistpoty: Thanks for the ack on the gfortran stuff, I'm working on uploading the bits I've prepared now. [23:34] slytherin: sounds like bug 178558 [23:34] Launchpad bug 178558 in xulrunner-1.9 "Firefox 3.0 makes everything annoyingly huge" [High,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/178558 [23:34] Fujitsu: excellent, thanks! [23:35] pochu: Can read the bug. Even launchpad is borked. :-( [23:35] s/Can/Can't [23:35] sistpoty: One thing... petsc introduced a new build-dep on spooles, which is a new package that we don't have. Should I drop the build-dependency and configure flags? [23:38] Fujitsu: hm, not too sure... maybe bringing in spooles might also be an option. I couldn't say which I'd choose right now... I guess you should just decide on this [23:38] sistpoty: I dropped the build-dependency for my PPA, but I'm not sure what to do in Ubuntu. [23:39] Fujitsu: maybe you could try to figure what spooles is needed for and make a decision based on this? If it's merely enabling a feature, I guess I'd drop the b-d [23:39] It's just a feature, right. [23:39] That's why I dropped it. [23:56] :)
