ScottKslangasek: Do you recall the Postfix backports problem with Soyuz having grown the 'feature' of not looking into Universe for build-deps in backports?  Well postgres 8.3.1 is now hung up on the same problem.00:17
mattismynameSo, I'm trying to build a package of a library (my first try...).  This library can make use of other libraries if they exist on the system, but it does not require they be present (libtiff, libpng).  My question is...should I include these on the Build-Depends: line in the package control file?00:20
RAOFmattismyname: Probably better answered in #ubuntu-motu00:23
jdongmattismyname: if you feel that the functionality provided by building with such libraries present would be desired by users, it's probably a good idea to put them as build depends.00:24
mattismynameRAOF, jdong: thanks00:25
mattismynameMore than likely, the users would want this additional library support so I will add it.  Will check w/ #ubuntu-motu as well.00:27

twb`Is this the most appropriate channel for discussing the guts of the python-launchpad-bugs package?01:29
lifelessI suspect so01:30
lifelesshere or #ubuntu-bugs, but I would say here01:30
twb`Righto.  I want to extend reportbug so that, out of the box on Ubuntu systems, it talks to launchpad rather than a subscriber-only mailing list (which is what it does currently).01:31
=== twb` is now known as twb

mweicherthey guys, anyone know how to get unicode support in bash? I'm trying to paste a unicode-type string but any character outside ISO-8859-1 is not displayed03:49
twbmweichert: that could be a problem with the app you're copying from, your terminal emulator, or your locale setting.03:51
twbmweichert: regardless, this channel is probably not the appropriate place to discuss it.03:51
mweicherttwb: okay, sorry... do you know where I might ask?03:52
twbmweichert: are you using Ubuntu Gutsy?03:52
mweicherttwb: yes03:53
twbmweichert: #ubuntu, if you can handle the very high traffic.03:53
twbmweichert: what terminal emulator are you using?03:53
mweicherttwb: mac os x terminal ssh'd on to a gutsy vps03:54
twbOh.  Then you should ask ##macosx, since this is very likely to be a problem on the OS X side.03:54
twbBut make sure the `locales' package is installed on the VPS.03:54
mweicherttwb: okay, thanks for your help. The locates packages is installed but locale -a produces C and  POSIX.03:55
mweichertI think I should have UTF-8 in there, no?03:56
mweichertlooking at my terminal settings too, I have the charset set to UTF-803:56
twbmweichert: yes, try dpkg-reconfigure -plow locales.  I'll say no more on this here, since it's off-topic and I've talked too much already.03:56
mweicherttwb: okay, thanks again03:56
JohnPhysMy apologies if this is off-topic, but what are the plans for Firefox 3 upgrades with respect to Hardy?  Specifically, when FF3 is released in June, are there plans to upload that to the repositories, or will FF3 be "frozen" at the version included in the repos at release time?04:10
twbIIUC the standard policy is that only critical upgrades (e.g. security fixes) enter a released version.  I don't know if a release (i.e. not beta) Firefox 3 would count as a critical upgrade, but I doubt it.04:13
twbI expect a post-beta firefox 3 would be added to the standard hardy-backports repository.04:13
ScottKI've heard, but am not certain that they will update it to final.04:14
RAOFFirefox is a pretty special case.  We seem to be adding new stable releases of ff2 to -updates.  Unless I'm imagining that.04:14
ScottKWe are because that's how we get security fixes.04:15
twbHaha04:15
protonchrisScottK: I noticed that wxglade was uploaded.  Thanks.  For some reason, LP didn't mark it fix release.  Should I go ahead and mark it fixed?04:15
RAOFI suspected as much.04:15
ScottKprotonchris: I didn't actually upload it, so no thanks needed here.  If it's definitely uploaded, then yes.04:16
protonchrisScottK: ok.04:16
JohnPhysThanks for the info.  I wasn't sure if FF3b4 -> rc's -> final was similar to a 2.0.0.x -> 2.0.0.(x+1) release, or the 1.5 -> 2.0 release in dapper, where the package wasn't updated because too many other things depended on the rendering engine and such (iirc).04:17
warp10Good morning06:11

JohnPhysWhy the gnome-system-tools package not installed in Hardy beta by default?  Is there another way to use a gui to set up smb/nfs file shares?  I tried searching the forums, bugs, blueprints, and answers, and didn't see anything obvious.  Thanks for your time (and the great distro!)06:40

ScottKThe server stuff I backport all gets upgrade testing because it's running on my test server when I upgrade it.15:26
ScottKDunno about jdong's crack though.15:26
ogra_cmpcwell, the thing with dapper is for example that a backport could come from hardy ... if you'd upgrade dapper->edgy that package would simply be left out because of the higher upstream version15:28
mvowe could add a automatic test for system with -backports, the problem is currently mostly lack of cpu/io/diskspace, but if somebody is interessted, all it requires is a cpu that supports kvm and some spare cycles15:28
ScottKogra_cmpc: That's true which is why I try to hit all the releases when I backport.15:30

calciwlwifi_mac8021118:23

asacBenC: i think iwl is used by default in hardy though, isn't it?18:24
calcBenC: hmm why does it automatically use the other one then? and is that a bug?18:24
BenCbecause of a booger in our prep scripts18:24
BenCipw3945 should be default, so try blacklisting iwl3945 in the meantime18:25
calci don't see ipw3945 under /lib/modules/2.4.24-12-generic is it somewhere else?18:25
calcalso the daemon it tries to load isn't in /sbin18:25

calcthe /etc/modprobe.d/ipw3945 file is there but the driver and daemon look missing (at least to me)18:26

calcBenC: ah18:27
asacBenC: well ... whenever you change modules and things like that i need to make sure that network manager works with that.18:27
BenCasac: hasn't network manager always worked with ipw3945?18:27
BenCasac: and can't it work with them at the same time, regardless of switching back and forth?18:28
BenCit does query the driver name before acting on things, right?18:28
asacno ... we had issues in gutsy that required tweaks18:28

calcasac: i'm not sure what the proper solution should be, unless we just rm a conffile(?)20:34
slangasekcalc: 70-persistent-net.rules isn't a conffile20:37
slangasekI think ideally we would have udev edit that file on upgrade if the attributes are missing20:37
slangasekbut I'm not sure if adding these two new fields is *always* the right thing20:37
slangasekKeybuk: ^^ ?20:37
Keybukit's not always the right thing20:38
Keybukthat's the problem20:38
=== \sh_away is now known as \sh
slangasekis it possible to detect when it's the right thing?20:38
Keybuknot once you've booted with the broken file20:39
Keybukit's possible to migrate people when they are running gutsy20:39
Keybukfix the file20:39
Keybukso that when they boot into hardy, it works20:39
KeybukI have that working for upload this week20:39
Keybukonce you've rebooted with the broken file, it's damned hard to sort out20:39
slangasekhmm, ok20:40
slangasekbut at least in theory it's fixable for people who have not yet upgraded to hardy20:40
Keybukyes20:40
* slangasek nods and leaves it in your hands :)20:40
mvo_slangasek: yeah, I guess I should have explained it on the sepolgen and python-sepolgen example :)20:41
Keybukit's maybe fixable for others too20:41
KeybukI'm working on it20:41
* \sh has the bugger...superblock was corrupted on the ext3 partitions of his lvm schroot devices......after all, removed all schroot lvms, updated mk-sbuild-lv to format with xfs, recreated all schroots ... ready for work20:42
calcjust deleting the file (i guess if the user doesn't modify it) fixes the problem also20:44
calcor does that not work in some cases?20:44
slangasek... so your answer for an ext3 superblock corruption is to switch to a filesystem that likes to eat individual files instead?20:44
slangasekcalc: it means that on next reboot, the devices are not guaranteed to come up with the same name mapping20:44
Keybukcalc: that will randomly rename your network interfaces20:44
Keybukmany might consider this pessimal behaviour20:44
slangasek(also, this file might have been customized by the user in the corner case)20:44
calcslangasek: ah yea20:46
calcKeybuk: yea that would be very bad for servers, probably not a big deal for desktop users20:46
mvo_Keybuk: do you have a opinion on bug #209347 ? I was wondering if the conversion should be moved back to udevs postinst or if it should just run on new installs of volumeid too (might confuse the installer?)20:46
Keybukcalc: unfortunately we also install udev on servers :)20:46
calcKeybuk: yea :)20:46
Keybukmvo_: err, the conversion has never been in udev's postinst?20:47
Keybuk(it can't go there for various reasons)20:47
calcelmo: see scrollback to fix your wireless issue20:50
mvo_Keybuk: hm, there goes my nice theory about the bug. I will look closer20:50
Keybukdidn't we add it in edgy?20:50
KeybukI can't remember20:51
mvo_Keybuk: yeah, its available since edgy (according to packages.ubuntu.com)20:52
SeveasKeybuk, hmm, that may be why ubotu is down -- didn't come up after dapper->harder upgrade :)20:52
Hydrantcalc: Hey, I found a bug in OO for Ubuntu you might want20:52
calcHydrant: what is that?20:53
Keybukmvo_: I'm trying to remember how this may have worked20:53
crimsunKeybuk: what about checking the return value of, say, `ps -C nm-applet >/dev/null' and acting accordingly?20:53
Keybukcrimsun: removing that file is *always* wrong20:53
Hydrant /usr/lib/openoffice/sdk/linux/bin/regcomp is a posix script file20:53
crimsun(obviously that's not a comprehensive solution)20:53
Hydrant... regcomp isn't working on a .so file in my cwd unless I add "." to LD_LIBRARY_PATH in that script20:54
Keybukmvo_: ah20:54
Keybuk * Ship the UUID migration script as a separate executable, called by20:54
Keybuk    volumeid's postinst; also ensure we don't call it when installing the20:54
Keybuk    base system on the LiveCD (oops!)20:54
calcHydrant: ah yea i have a bug open about that i think20:54
Hydrantcalc: otherwise I'd have to copy the .so file to $OO/program20:54
mvo_Keybuk: aha! so it is probably safe to remove the [ -n "$2 ] bit from it, because the livecd diverts it?20:55
calcHydrant: oh nm that isn't the same bug, please report it20:55
Keybukmvo_: does it?20:55
Hydrantcalc: where do I file a report ?20:55
Keybukmvo_: the [ -n ] is there to protect the Live CD creation process20:55
calcHydrant: launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/20:55
crimsunKeybuk: I don't remove it locally.  One option I'm considering is checking for loaded modules that are in a whitelist and removing the lines from that file.20:55
Hydrantcalc: thx... how is your OO'ing going20:56
Keybukcrimsun: removing the lines is always wrong20:56
Keybukthe only correct solution is to add ATTR{type}=="1" for the individual entries that need it20:56
mario_limonciellKeybuk, ping (once you are done with the above conv).  wanted to follow up on the thinkfinger stuff.  It looks like everything is in main now, so just that last piece for enabling it in pam is necessary, right?20:56
mvo_Keybuk: hm, currently on dapper->hardy the -n test will fail because there is no volumeid in dapper yet20:56
Keybukmario_limonciell: right20:57
Keybukmvo_: indeed20:57
mario_limonciellKeybuk, which package's postinst was going to enable it?20:57
calcHydrant: just waiting on some changes from doko then i will be uploading a first pass of 2.4.0 final20:57
crimsunKeybuk: when I get back, I'll show you an entry that will fail, since the entry that is created is bunk.  i.e., it's the MAC of the wifi iface prepended to a broadcast address.20:57
Keybukmario_limonciell: no postinst will do it20:57
calcHydrant: may have another upload before RC next week though20:57
KeybukI still think that's wrong20:57
mario_limonciellKeybuk, oh.20:58
Keybukit'll break upgrades, etc.20:58
Keybukcrimsun: ?20:58
slangasekKeybuk: trying to understand your comment above - is the plan to enable thinkfinger by default only on new installs or somethinG?20:59
crimsunKeybuk: on a dist-upgrade from gutsy, the generated entry for b43 (vice bcm43xx) had the MAC prepended to the broadcast address.20:59
Keybukcrimsun: that I don't know about20:59
Keybukslangasek: we shouldn't ever enable thinkfinger by default20:59
Keybukit has too many issues20:59
slangasekok20:59
slangasekjust making sure I understood20:59
Keybukcrimsun: if new lines are being generated wrong, that's a different bug21:00
slangasekwhereas I am pondering enabling smbpasswd by default yet, and may need to rely on other people to check my sanity in this regard...21:00
crimsunKeybuk: understood.21:00
Hydrantcalc: I've completely messed up my OO install with my development... I tried dpkg -l openoffice | grep openoffice and doing an apt-get remove for each followed by dpkg --purge, but my install is still messed up21:06
Hydrantcalc: any suggestions for purging everything?21:07
theunixgeekHow do I get my app to appear in the desktop menu after installation? Is there a shell script?21:09
calcHydrant: | dpkg -l | grep (oo full version number) | cut -f 3 -d " " | xargs dpkg --purge --force-depends21:09
calcer get rid of that first |21:10
calcHydrant: if that doesn't work you really screwed up something, since that will uninstall all of openoffice21:10
calcHydrant: removing ~/.openoffice.org2 may help in some cases21:11
seb128slangasek: what timezone do you use to get bug #208598? The bug is not here using a french one for example21:12
Hydrantcalc: thanks...yeah I got rid of ~/.openoffice..21:13
Hydrantcalc: thx21:13
Hydrantcalc: I don't see a meta package for OO, is there a quick way to put it back on21:15
slangasekseb128: America/Los_Angeles.21:15
calcHydrant: openoffice.org21:24
calcHydrant: that is the meta-package21:24
seb128mdke: around?21:33
mdkeseb128: (In case I'm not around at the moment, please provide a bit of information about what you want and I will respond when I get back)21:33
mdkeseb128: yeah21:33
seb128mdke: is smb file sharing described in the ubuntu documentation?21:33
seb128mdke: we just switched to nautilus-share which is a bit of sucking situation21:34
seb128shares-admin was requiring command line use and not allowing to use anonymous shares21:35
seb128so the change should be useful but it's late21:35
=== \sh is now known as \sh_away
Hydrantcalc: thx21:35
mdkeseb128: looking21:36
mdkedamn, Ctrl Z sucks21:40
Nafallodoes it?21:40
mdkeseb128: yes, it is documented in the "Internet" section - file:///usr/share/gnome/help/internet/C/internet.xml#networking-shares21:40
seb128mdke: hum, I don't like late changes21:42
mdkeseb128: what would change from the user's POC?21:43
seb128mdke: no tools to do the shares, only right click on a folder from nautilus21:43
seb128mdke: so the first list of steps would need to be changed to that21:44
seb128mdke: the new dialog installs smb too if not installed and allow anonymous sharing21:44
seb128mdke: the part about setting the smb passwd is still true and the debugging one too21:44
mdkeseb128: so basically the first section would be simplified?21:46
seb128mdke: yes21:47
seb128mdke: do you use hardy?21:47
mdkeseb128: yes21:47
seb128mdke: it's, basically right clik on a folder in nautilus, select Sharing Options21:47
jdstrandslangasek: bug #20989721:47
jdstrandwhere's ubotu today?21:48
seb128mdke: and then you can describe the read only, anonymous and comment fields if you want21:48
jdstrandslangasek: that's the FFe for ufw21:48
Nafallobug 20989721:48
mdkeseb128: I'll upgrade now21:48
Nafallohmm21:48
seb128mdke: thanks!21:48
mdkeseb128: it sounds like it will be easy to change the documentation. But I'm more concerned about the translations of the documentation - quite a few languages are pretty advanced on translating that document. If the advantages of the change are pretty big, then we should try and go for it, I think - and warn the translators21:49
seb128mdke: I'll warn them21:50
seb128mdke: we will update the translations after stable and ship 8.04.1 cds, etc with updated packages when it'll be available21:51
seb128mdke: well, the new tool allow anonymous sharing which was not possible before which is a good thing ;-)21:52
mdkeseb128: well, ubuntu-docs translations are done manually, although we will try to do that if the timeline for the point release is documented21:52
mdkeseb128: can shares-admin and the new tool exist together? Or are they basically different?21:53
seb128mdke: they can exist together, though we removed shares-admin for now21:54
seb128I'm considering adding it back it a limited form though21:54
seb128ie, removing the nautilus integration and masking the menu item21:55
mdkethat sounds pretty uncomfortable21:55
seb128what do you mean?21:55
mdkewell, more work for you :)21:56
mdkeanyway, that solution would answer require amendment to the docs21:57
mdkeI'll see what I can do to amend it tonight, although if it will take a long time or access to a windows network, I will struggle...21:57
mdkeseb128: I don't have a "Sharing Options" in my nautilus, although i just upgraded. What do I need?21:59
slangasekseb128: why would you add shares-admin back?22:01
seb128mdke: nautilus-share22:03
=== blueyed_ is now known as blueyed
seb128slangasek: people complaining loud about late change, no way to modify their shares and nfs, no transition plan, etc ... though I think they are vocal minority as usual22:03
slangasek"shares and nfs"?22:04
seb128slangasek: I'm wondering if having only the capplet available and not listed in the menus would be a compromise to make them happy22:04
mdkenever underestimate the vocal minority :)22:04
mdkeseb128: thanks22:04
slangasekshares-admin did NFS management?22:04
mdkethat looks neat22:04
seb128slangasek: yes22:04
TameLionLaney: Now all I need is a bot which responds to !cheek-seeker22:04
slangasekhmm, ok22:04
TameLionHello all..22:04
seb128slangasek: but we don't think that's something desktop user are using22:05
TameLionI just really really need to say a huge THANK YOU! Hardy beta is the easiest install ever!22:05
mdkeseb128: isn't it something that we should encourage desktop users to use over smb though?22:05
slangasekseb128: I for one wasn't even aware of it22:05
seb128slangasek: and I'm not really sure it was working, so far nobody complained about that, it seems they are just trying to argue22:05
seb128mdke: nfs? I don't think so22:06
seb128I think we should install gnome-user-share next cycle22:06
slangasekmdke: no, because user-based NFS auth is not straightforward to configure yet22:06
seb128it does webdav sharing using apache22:06
slangasek(prerequisites include Kerberos, and... 5 years experience administering Kerberos)22:06
slangasekseb128: and drop the samba sharing altogether, or..?22:07
seb128slangasek: no, samba sharing is the only thing which integrates to windows networks22:07
mdkeslangasek: fair enough22:07
seb128webdav advertised over avahi is neat between linux boxes22:07
seb128but win doesn't list those22:07
slangasekgar why is ucf hanging on my Debian unstable dist-upgrade, that makes it harder for me to test the bzr 1.3 packages :P22:08

asacslangasek: nm 0.6.6-0ubuntu5 upload ... all hidden network issues known so far fixed \o/22:13
Hydrantcalc: I'm really not sure22:14
calcHydrant: what are the symptoms?22:14
Hydrantcalc: I've been working on my own modules for OO...22:14
Hydrantcalc: The icons are all missing, OO looks like win9522:14
Hydrantcalc: Also when I type "=" into OO Calc it crashes22:14
calcwow = crashes OO sounds bad22:14
asaclets hope that the next driver round doesn't break all these :)22:15
calcthe icon issue may be related to the fallback not working, if you aren't using human theme22:15
calcbut the = crashes oocalc isn't22:15
Hydrantcalc: yeah, the = thing is likely me22:15
mathiazslangasek: I'm trying to figure out how to add the default feisty smb.conf to allow for a smooth upgrade to hardy - I was wondering why do you use 3.0.26a-1 in the postinst script ?22:15
Hydrantcalc: I'll have to so some slocating and hope to find something remaining22:16
slangasekmathiaz: version number from gutsy; split upgrade handling between gutsy and dapper22:16
slangasekmathiaz: so to handle the possibility of one of a number of different configs having been the initial version, we'd want to loop through a copy of the default configs for each release, debconfize them, and check which one is "closest"22:17
mdkeseb128: neat tool. I've written the instructions and will upload a new pot template now to Rosetta, and post to -translators22:30

mdkeDaviey: ;)22:34
tjaaltonslangasek: nfs-utils> you mentioned about some breakage in the build-deps?22:35
mdkeseb128: cool. presumably nautilus-share will be installed by default, right?22:35
seb128mdke: yes, it is already if you try a daily CD22:37
mdkeseb128: fine, guess that hasn't filtered through to my install yet22:38
seb128mdke: how do you update?22:39
seb128mdke: it's only a recommends and apt doesn't install those by default in ubuntu22:39
mdkeseb128: update-manager22:40
mdkeseb128: if not all users will have the package, we may have to add another line to document that! But shouldn't it be a dependency of ubuntu-desktop?22:40
seb128mdke: ubuntu-desktop recommends are installed by default and it let the choice to the user to uninstall22:43
slangasektjaalton: yes, the change I cited was not a change that should've been made to nfs-utils, this was actually a bug in libnfsidmap-dev22:44
mdkeseb128: hmm. Strange I didn't get it then22:44
slangasektjaalton: it's a minor blemish, but since you weren't aware that it was an error, I wanted to make sure that you've tested this package in other respects :)22:45
seb128mdke: I don't think update-manager install those22:45
seb128mdke: new install and people using the dist-upgrader will have it though22:45
tjaaltonslangasek: ah, yes. I've been running it on a couple of clients for a few days. Note that many of the upstream commits were already in the old package22:46
mdkeseb128: ok, that may be enough. We don't really have a policy on whether our docs should take into account those who have tracked the development version22:46
slangasektjaalton: yep, I see that22:47
tjaaltonslangasek: -2 is mostly cleanup, but why not merge with it while fixing the build-deps?-)22:47
seb128mdke: well, those know what they are doing usually and should read the upgrade notes if they don't22:47
seb128mdke: but right, that's worth discussing at some point, nautilus-share is not the only package concerned by such situations22:48
tjaaltonslangasek: so our libnfsidmap is safe since it's rebuilt against the new libldap2-dev?22:48
mdkeseb128: agreed.22:49
slangasektjaalton: our libnfsidmap is also broken; it's supposed to have a dependency on libldap2-dev and doesn't22:49
slangasektjaalton: so even though I've highlighted that change as an error, it can't be dropped from nfs-utils without also making changes to libnfsidmap :/22:50
tjaaltonslangasek: ah right, libnfsidmap-dev doesn't depend on libldap2-dev, gotcha22:50
tjaaltonheh, there's already a bug filed about that on b.d.o22:52
* lamont wonders if the gnome-equiv of jpilot has ever learned that more than one category exists in phone lists22:52
slangasektjaalton: I think so; but perhaps not, since it was one of the nfs-utils comaintainers who brought it to my attention22:53
slangaseklamont: what's the gnome equiv of jpilot? :/22:53
lamontslangasek: ISTR evo was pretending to be that back then22:54
tjaaltonslangasek: sesse is also a comaintainer of libnfsidmap, and filed the bug :)22:54
lamontbut only believed in one category of phone contacts, so happy merge-o-rama22:54
lamontslangasek: more to the point, where did /usr/bin/dund move, I wonder?22:54
slangasektjaalton: right, that would be the one :)22:54
slangaseklamont: I don't know what that is, so couldn't say22:55
lamontit's the implementation of MS DUN (ppp over bluetooth)22:55
lamontand was in bluez-utils in gutsy22:56
lamontand isn't in Contents-i386.gz for hardy...22:56
lamontloss22:56
lamontit's how one does bluetooth palm-sync with jpilot, you see....  no BT sync,  so we just do network sync over bluetooth networking.  win.22:57

kirklandlamont: see Bug #19170423:00
slangaseklamont: ah, ick23:00
kirklandlamont: I think that bug is related to your discussion with slangasek23:01
lamontthat'd be the same family23:03
lamonthrm... so who do we slap around for getting BT network back, I wonder?23:06
lamontI mean, I could just do the upload, I suppose... but someone would probably squawk23:06
slangaseklamont: looks like a plain regression halfway through the release cycle with no rationale, consider yourself freeze-blessed if that's the concern23:09
lamontslangasek: woot!23:09
* lamont will compare the gutsy binary list until it's "right" then. "-)23:09
slangaseklamont: oh, but before you do, maybe this says the binary is no longer needed?: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bluez-utils/+bug/191704/comments/1623:10
lamontwell, for things that it supports...23:10
slangasekright; so is dund the only bit really still missing?23:11
lamontshow me network over BT :-(23:12
lamontand that was more someone saying "my keyboard/mouse work now", not that they were involved in dropping it...23:12
lamontthere might be other stuff that still needs hidd... not sure23:12
lamontdund, hidd, pand, and passkey-agent are the dropped binaries...23:12
slangasekwell, my understanding is that the standalone daemons are supposed to be replaced by these "service" records that DTRT23:12
lamontnot sure why, though...23:12
slangasekso we now have bluetoothd-service-{input,network,serial}23:13
slangasekbut I'm not sure that any of those map correctly to dund23:13
slangasek(whereas -input == hidd, and -network == pand)23:13
lamontwell, I just know I broke my desktop when I upgraded to hardy...23:13
lamontso it sure as hell wasn't transparent...23:14

lamontor should I wait until morning and have a flamefest^Wdebugging session with someone european?23:15
slangasekwell, I'm less sure now that the dropping was unintentional... it may be that these daemons are no longer even provided upstream...?23:16

kirklandlamont: slangasek: i know that the helper scripts that I use in gutsy to do dial up networking and syncing my palm, broke when I upgraded to hardy due to a missing dund (see comment #19 in that bug).  there was something about "dbus" providing that functionality now, but i have yet to figure out how23:18
lamontkirkland: right - it's either broken by not being there, or broken by not being transparent23:19
lamontsince delivering /usr/bin/dund should make it just work again23:19
