jdongit's always the md5sum fun.04:15
jdongwe could just not check MD5sums :D04:15
jdong</bad security joke>04:15
LaserJockwhy not?04:15
emgentargh04:15
LaserJockit's not like Flash has the best security history or anything ;-)04:15
superm1well i'd be for maybe presenting a warning04:16
superm1that they don't match04:16
superm1and explain what can cause that04:16
jdongright04:16
superm1so that people can still proceed04:16
jdongmaking dpkg fail in postinst is probably the least elegant solution04:16
superm1although i'd moreso be for Adobe to put it in the canonical partners repo04:16
superm1but that's too idealistic04:16
jdongsuperm1: yeah and the world would spin a lot better if getdeb packages were reviewed into universe...04:17
jdongyou utopians ;-)04:17
jdongthat should be triaged and set to high importance, no?04:18
jdongwait xtknight has a debdiff04:18
xtknighthelloooo04:19
xtknight:004:19
xtknightyeah it worked for me at laest04:19
jdongit looks reasonable04:19
LaserJockjdong: Fedora's pretty fast. I first noticed the flash thing because I had an update to install04:19
xtknightwe dont need an SRU do we?04:19
LaserJockthen I opened up my email and saw the SRU bug04:19
jdongxtknight: for gutsy and friends very likely04:20
xtknightif it's a new flash... flash would be completely broken for everyone, so it's sort of vital to update the md5sums for it unless you're going to change the download link04:20
xtknightoh that's right gutsy uses it too04:20
jdongLaserJock: we need a standing SRU, like a volatile setup04:20
LaserJockjdong: well, as long as Adobe doesn't cause problems it's a pretty straightfoward deal04:21
LaserJockbut I think a standing SRU approval would be a good idea04:21
LaserJockit's not like we're gonna do a code review04:21
mbtDoes anyone have any ideas on debugging a package that works properly under a debugger (gdb) but not outside of it?  I'm trying to fix a particularly troubling bug (bug 106583) and it works when under GDB, but not outside of it.04:22
ubotuLaunchpad bug 106583 in alltray "No windows hiding with compiz" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/10658304:22
jdongxtknight: I uploaded your debdiff04:22
jdongthanks for jumping on that one :)04:22
xtknightoh thanks04:22
xtknighti'm also wondering why even bother checking the md5sum04:22
LaserJockbut yeah, we need to do something about bailing out of postinst04:22
jdongxtknight: MITM attack. This would be a root compromise04:22
xtknightwell i mean people are already at risk by using closed source things *shrugs*04:23
jdongxtknight: that's not quite the same thing04:23
mbtxtknight, jdong: Wouldn't there be a way to do it in a manner that doesn't require the package being updated every time?  It is a bit annoying the frequency which the md5sum on flash changes.04:23
jdongxtknight: there still is some "trust" if you call it that in big-names04:23
xtknightwe could download the latest md5sum from ubuntu04:23
jdongmbt: if adobe GPG signs their flash stuff or provides a SSL/HTTPS download method04:23
LaserJockmbt: we can't know the md5sums ahead of time04:23
xtknightor something04:23
mbtNo, but what if the md5sums were checked from an https Ubuntu server with a list?04:24
jdongxtknight: if we download md5sums from somewhere, then we should just always keep the package updated.04:24
mbtUsing curl or something?04:24
jdongmbt: ^^04:24
xtknightif adobe uploaded a .md5sum would that fix it?04:24
jdongthere would be no difference in complexity.04:24
jdongxtknight: no04:24
jdongxtknight: what prevents me from spoofing that?04:24
mbtNo, but it wouldn't require the package be rebuilt.04:24
xtknighthmm04:24
xtknighttrue04:24
mbtSSL signature04:24
jdongmbt: the package rebuild is probably the least of concerns04:24
jdongif Adobe would provide a SSL download URL I'd be happy to remove this check.04:24
jdongbut that apparently is not the case04:25
LaserJockI would be concerned about people getting new software without us knowing about it04:25
xtknightyea04:25
jdonghonestly adobe+canonical partner is the BEST solution04:25
jdongLaserJock: +104:25
crimsunno04:25
jdongpackage fetchers IMO are a bad idea04:25
mbtjdong: There have been times where there has been considerable lag and many duplicate bugs...04:25
crimsunremove it completely from the archive04:25
jdongmbt: indeed, mostly because of the painful procedure currently to get that update in04:25
jdongmbt: but there's no reason why that cannot be reformed04:25
xtknighthttps://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz04:25
xtknightwell this works04:25
xtknightdo you call that secure?04:25
jdongxtknight: does that actually work? :)04:26
jdongcool04:26
crimsunno, it's not "secure"04:26
xtknightbut i dont see why that's any better than http04:26
xtknightanyone at adobe could still upload a tainted package04:26
crimsunit's not much better04:26
jdongif anyone at adobe uploads a tainted package we're all screwed anyway04:26
jdong</chicken little>04:26
xtknightnot in our current system though04:26
mbtTrue enough, but at least it's not MITM if you verify the SSL cert, which is probably the biggest problem downloading it via HTTP.04:26
xtknight;)04:26
LaserJockthe problem last time was that Adobe's package broke Konqueror04:26
jdongis there any attempt for canonical to work with Adobe on this?04:27
LaserJockit takes us all of a couple hours to get a new package with md5sums to the archives04:27
jdongI find it hard to believe we can't reach an agreement for flashplayer04:27
crimsunthe real solution to this is to have the browser handle it via a plugin04:27
LaserJockjdong: well, we had to remove Acrobat Reader completly04:27
xtknighttakes longer to file an SRU for gutsy tho04:27
LaserJockjdong: my guess is Adobe doesn't really care04:27
LaserJockxtknight: we can fix that04:28
xtknighthopefully04:28
jdongxtknight: that's why I proposed a standing SRU04:28
xtknightok.  ive never even heard of that.  but i know what it is now04:28
crimsunas long as we have this inane package in the archive, it will remain an issue.04:28
mbtIt'd be nice if Adobe were more friendly, to be sure; then it wouldn't be an issue at all, and known-good versions could be kept in the repos.  :-/04:28
xtknightcant FF download from adobe anyway04:29
jdongxtknight: on 32-bit04:29
crimsunwe already do nasty things like assume EULA acceptance04:29
xtknightyea true04:29
LaserJockI agree with crimsun that Flash should be done via the browser04:29
jdongLaserJock: well that's the easiest solution for us but isn't htat just skirting the responsibility?04:29
xtknightFF should make an official plugin wrapper or get nspluginwrapper into the tree04:29
xtknightfor 64bit04:29
LaserJockjdong: well, not necessarily04:30
xtknightthen there's no use in having the package at all04:30
LaserJockjdong: I bet Adobe would be much more willing to work with Mozilla than Canonical04:30
jdongLaserJock: how is it not "this isn't our problem, it's the user's problem now"04:30
mbtWhat about canonical putting resources into the free flash players?  Is that happening?  Or are there patent issues there?04:30
jdongoh that's what you meant04:30
jdongmbt: haha. free flash player.04:30
jdongmbt: reimplementing flash from ground up is not a walk in the park04:30
mbtjdong: Well, it works for some things... just not everything.04:30
crimsunfirst, updating this package endlessly is /not/ the solution.04:31
LaserJockyeah, I'm saying the actual browser that needs flash should maybe handle getting it04:31
jdongmbt: complexity wise I don't think it's any less nontrivial than implementing java from ground up and look at how long that took04:31
jdongcrimsun: agreed....04:31
jdongLaserJock: firefox already kinda does that04:31
jdongLaserJock: before we castrated that ability04:31
Hobbseecrimsun: throw it out instead?04:31
crimsunHobbsee: absolutely.  Make the browser handle it.04:31
LaserJockyeah, but it wasn't good about plugins04:31
Hobbseedoes it not already?04:32
xtknightFF is fine on 32bit we just need to fix the 64bit04:32
crimsunHobbsee: for some arches and browsers04:32
jdongHobbsee: ubufox disables that ability for flashplugin in particular04:32
Hobbseeoh, meh, 64 bit.04:32
Hobbseejdong: tasty.04:32
jdongyeah :)04:32
jdongwhen is a feature not a feature? ;-)04:32
LaserJockwell, can we get ubufox to handle it?04:33
xtknightwhat else uses flash? epiphany,etc, do they have methods of d/l'ing it?04:34
LaserJockno04:34
jdongI don't see how having ubufox handle it is any less evil than turning off the MD5sum check04:34
xtknightwe dont have to bother w/ updating the package04:35
xtknighti guess04:35
LaserJockbtw, has anybody got a new package ready to go?04:35
LaserJock:-)04:35
LaserJockor did we already do it?04:35
crimsunit was already uploaded.04:35
LaserJockyeah, I see it now04:36
LaserJockdid anybody test it?04:36
crimsunyes04:36
LaserJocklike for konqi problems04:36
crimsunit works on KDE4's konqueror04:36
crimsundidn't test KDE304:36
LaserJockI guess I was asking if it's been uploaded to -proposed04:36
LaserJockfor the gutsy horde04:36
ajmitchah, flash, everyone's friend04:37
LaserJockajmitch: oh man, in the edu world it can be particularly exciting04:37
LaserJockeverybody likes doing all their learning content in Flash04:37
LaserJockthen trying to have 30 kids run it over a LTSP server04:38
mbtheh, does the new version work with libflashsupport without crashing?  :-D04:38
xtknightwell i dont think there's a free equiv to Flash itself04:38
xtknightsome free flash decoders that are half broken, not much more than this04:38
crimsunmbt: not really.04:38
crimsunwhat do you expect?  It's Flash.04:38
LaserJock:-)04:38
mbtYep.04:38
LaserJockI like it when flash works though04:39
LaserJockas that's how I got my wife to ditch Windows04:39
mbtI started using Totem for YouTube with all the ick that is flash04:39
jdongmbt: that's great for the simple case of a flash video player04:45
mbtYeah, but that's about it...04:45
jdongmbt: too bad flash is a pretty complete JITting language runtime.04:45
LaserJockugg, Need to get 210MB of archives.04:47
LaserJockI sure wish my school didn't decide to mess with their VPN04:48
LaserJock*hadn't decided04:48

jdongwould it really kill us to put the true version number?04:58
xtknightwe do on hardy04:58
xtknightnot sure why not on gutsy04:58
jdongright but the SRU policy by default would be bump 12.2 to 12.304:58
jdongthat's why it's 12.2 right now04:59
jdongthat's actually 9.0.115.004:59
xtknighto04:59
jdongLaserJock: ^^ your opinion on this?04:59
jdongI personally would say put the real 9.0.124 version number in04:59
jdongbut of course set it less than Hardy by a bit04:59

jdongisn't dapper a higher version?05:03
LaserJockit should be05:03
jdongbackports05:03
LaserJockwhy isn't it in -updates?05:04
StevenKThe dapper one is higher, according to dpkg05:04
jdongLaserJock: probably because when it was done, it's not accepted in -updates05:04
jdongLaserJock: we used to have quite strict policy, remember?05:04
LaserJockwould it kill us to just use the real version?05:05
jdongthat's my sentiments05:05
jdonglet's just use the real version05:05
LaserJockI think it's more confusing to users looking for the update to see that  9.0.48.0.2+really0ubuntu12.3 is really 9.0.124.0ubuntu105:06

saivannLaserJock : --help does not give any outputs..05:22
LaserJockjdong: that's CHARLIE-ALPHA-ONE-SIX-ZERO05:22
xtknightsaivann, yes the flash player has had the warning about 6405:22
chapocerowell i hope to bone up on some of the things ive forgotten and/or missed out on as far as useful programming languages before i start resuming my college career... but once i get a bit better foundation i hope to do what i can to contribute... i think im going to look in to some C or python05:22
superm1it would lower the priority of these SRU sprints to get it updated across releases05:22
xtknightsaivann, you must run with linux32 if you use install-flash-player.  however the debian package doesnt05:22
LaserJockchapocero: those would be excellent choices05:22
LaserJockthey can get you around a heck of a lot of code05:23
saivannxtknight : Ok thanks, I will now try on a x86 hardy05:23
xtknightsaivann, wait were you trying the flashplugin-nonfree package or flash off adobe.com?05:23
saivannxtknight : flash from adobe, of course05:23
xtknightsaivann, i mean "linux32 ./install-flash-player"05:23
xtknightrun linux32 on a 64bit machine but, you must use nspluginwrapper also05:24
xtknighti think they meant for you to try the package05:24
jdongyeah, the package is what we're concerned about at the moment05:24
jdongdon't scare us like that!05:24

saivannxtknight, LaserJock : Also successfully testing in Gutsy, konqueror with nsplugins works correctly with latest flash, and also firefox 205:57
xtknightsaivann, i'm thinking the kde4 problem is due to nspluginwrapper or something.  maybe konq uses a different plugin folder than FF?05:58
xtknightseems like that should be another bug to me, at least, if it is indeed a problem05:59
saivannxtknight : Actually, it looks like konqueror and konqueror for KDE4 looks in the same Firefox folders to find flash plugin06:00
saivannxtknight : It really looks like a nspluginwrapper issue to me, yes.. but I don't know where is the problem since nsplugins search in the same folders and find the same plugins06:02
xtknightsaivann, maybe running kde4 konq in the terminal would reveal something06:03
saivannxtknight : That's a good idea06:03
xtknightsaivann, ive had flash go gray in FF with multiple windows open and stuff06:03
saivannxtknight : old or new flash plugin?06:03
xtknightold06:03
xtknightprobably new too06:04
xtknightseems to have happened forever06:04
saivannxtknight : Seriously? That's the first time that it happens to me yet06:04
xtknightsaivann, yeah.  i reboot FF and it works again06:04
xtknightit happens when multiple instances of nsplugin start and somehow it gets all messed06:04
xtknightsegfaults and grays out all the flash areas06:04
LaserJockok, I'm gonna upload xtknight's package to gutsy-proposed06:04
xtknightdoes flashplugin-nonfree even call nspluginwrapper when it installs?06:04
saivannxtknight : In my case, rebooting konqueror does not help, also I got a grey windows with "nspluginwrapper" in the title06:05
xtknightah06:05
=== asac_ is now known as asac
xtknightok i guess nsplugin is called.  so that should not be the problem.06:05
xtknightsaivann, did you find anything from the terminal output?06:06
saivannxtknight : I'm still searching the good command to start konqueror, it's not konqueror-kde4..06:07
xtknightmaybe /usr/bin/kde4/konqueror or similar i dunno06:07
xtknightpossibly opt , lib..06:07
saivannhehe /usr/lib/kde4/bin/konqueror06:08

saivannThe program 'npviewer.bin' received an X Window System error.06:10
xtknightsaivann, run "sudo ldconfig"06:10
xtknightlooks like you've got other lib errors but i dont know if those are normal06:10
xtknightsaivann, interesting.  you might need to a file bug for konqueror-kde4<> nspluginwrapper06:11
xtknightdoesnt seem like the new flash caused it though06:11
LaserJockHobbsee: do you have powers to accept packages into -proposed?06:11
xtknightmaybe crim had 32bit thats why06:11
saivannxtknight : Even after running "sudo ldconfig" and restarting konqueror, does not change anything yet06:11

xtknightand i probably dont test things enough :p06:15
xtknighti often end up posting three times to my ppa06:15

HobbseeLaserJock: don't thin so06:18
saivannxtknight : It works with 32bit!06:24
xtknightcool06:24
saivannxtknight : for which package should I post a bug about that, in your opinion?06:24
xtknightsaivann, for now leave it unassigned to any particular patch06:24
xtknighti mean package06:24
xtknightjust ubuntu06:24
saivannxtknight : Ok, thanks06:25
xtknightsaivann, if you want to go a step further you can get some people to confirm it06:27
xtknightotherwise could just be something broken on your machine, i dunno06:27
xtknightunlikely though06:27
saivannxtknight : Maybe people from #ubuntu-testing?06:27
xtknighti didnt even know about that channel06:27
saivannxtknight.. Yes, well I think that it's not a good idea. Perhaps that I can open the bug and then ask people to reproduce?06:28
xtknightsaivann, well yeah that sounds good to me06:28
xtknightdoesnt matter who it is, can be anybody :)06:28
TheMusoAnybody got an idea of whats wrong with this? http://www.themuso.id.au/ubuntu/vlc_0.8.6.release.e+x264svn20071224+faad2.6.1-0ubuntu3_20080409-143506:28
saivannxtknight : Great06:28
StevenKTheMuso: Looking06:32
xtknightTheMuso, i dont know im assuming youve seen this? http://ramblings.narrabilis.com/wp/vlc-build-for-rhel5/06:32
TheMusoxtknight: No, looking.06:32
xtknightcould be gcc versions06:32
xtknightone might define the function implicitly06:33
HobbseeTheMuso: you clearly did something bad in a past life.06:33
TheMusoHobbsee: Oh yeah. Just pulled a package down that built successfully last time, did a tweak within the debian dir, adding a dep to a binary package and changelog bits, and tried to rebuild.06:33
HobbseeTheMuso: strange.06:34
TheMusoHobbsee: Indeed.06:34
RAOFI'd be wondering two things: (1) why that's a size_t _reference_, and (2) why it's not getting implicitly upconverted to a long long int.06:35
StevenKIt could be a size_t deref'd pointer.06:36
StevenKWhy they wouldn't just pass a size_t is beyond me06:37
TheMusoStevenK: As I said above, no actual code changes since last upload and that previous one worked.06:37
StevenKTheMuso: Which means something in the toolchain it's using has changed06:37
xtknightprolly gcc06:38
TheMusoStevenK: My thought exactly.06:38
TheMusoWell its a .cpp file,.06:38
TheMusoxtknight: The link you posted has a solution, but it sounds hacky to me.06:39
xtknighti think the people upstream should just make it work with whatever gcc ubuntu has now.  more strict casting or w/e is needed06:39
xtknightg++06:39
xtknightrhel5 obviously doesnt work either06:40
TheMusoSo... Should I do that hack? I'd rather not...06:56
xtknightno idea07:00

DarkMageZHobbsee, "compter-savvy" people think they're awesome and that they'd never fall victim to it. while others will either be completely ignorant or show worry that it could be happening.09:05
DarkMageZthere was a kid in my class accidentally infecting every removable hard-drive with his usb stick. he somehow didn't manage to think that he was doing it.09:07
Hobbseetasty.09:08
DarkMageZhe had a virus that would make the machine shutdown when you tried to do anything that could destory it... like run command prompt. this was on hard-drives for cisco class. so no ping :'(09:12
\shScottK, you got the fix for wine from yesterday?09:19
slytherinDarkMageZ: that is an old one. I have seen that virus at least 1 year ago.09:22
DarkMageZslytherin, no anti-virus in this environment cause we should all be competent.09:22
slytherin:-D09:23
slytherinDarkMageZ: actually that virus specifically reboots the machine when you open command prompt. I don't remember the solution but see if running 'command' instead of 'cmd' makes a difference.09:25
DarkMageZoh, this one has other triggers like regedit and other things09:25
slytherinDarkMageZ: may be it is a variant09:26

ScottKOK.13:28
\shScottK, which means wine backport needs a small change sourceful upload13:28
ScottKI can do that.13:29
ScottKDo I want .58 again or try with .59?13:29
\shScottK, we had this problem before, you remember? it was because fontforge was clashing with libgif (for I don't know what reason)13:29

\shjdong, yes it will hurt13:32
jdongI see13:32
\shjdong, libungif is gone since hardy13:32
\shjdong, so we need to go with libgif13:33
\shjdong, but for gutsy it's different13:33

mok0when builds are done in the build queue, how long before they appear in the archive?14:06

* cody-somerville doesn't think persia is being facetious either.14:09

Mezone sec14:27
Mez<Derick> no, not anymore14:28
Mez<Derick> it could be a specific GCC issue14:28
Mez<Derick> I couldn't find *what* it was either14:28
\shgrmpf14:28
Mezyeah, I know14:29
\shit would be good to know which gcc he was using (gcc 4.2 or 4.3) and actually he should fix it,-)14:29
\shwell, anyways, please do as you wish :) if -O0 is better then -O2 let's change it14:29
persiaMight be a symbol-not-found issue if it compares code to stacktraces.  It might lose track if the line of code under consideration was optimised away (or at least that is one of the things that causes me to interrupt when manually chasing stacktraces).14:30

* sebner is of the opinion that \sh should consider writing better changelog entries :P15:07
\shhmm?15:07
\shsebner, or better "hae?" :)15:08
sebner\sh: better changelog entries :)15:09
\shsebner, example?15:09
sebner\sh: https://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/athcool  <-- "- Added zlib1g-dev to build-deps15:09
sebner" But *why* ;)15:09
\shsebner, it's written there15:10
\sh * Patched Makefile to link against zlib (added -lz)15:10
\shand for zlib you need what in b-d? :)15:10
\shand it's damn old15:10
mok0I need a hard-core MOTU to take a look at bug 11061315:11
sebner\sh: möhh. Nevermind then ^^ but debianfixed the -lz issue without adding zlib15:11

ubotuDebian bug 450447 in athcool "athcool: FTBFS: undefined reference to `gzopen'" [Serious,Fixed]15:13
\shsebner, yes...seriously...I compiled the package before and most probably it ftbfs because of the missing build-dep15:14
\shthese days...15:14
sebner\sh: I did a rebuild without problems (of the debian package)15:14
\shsebner, the .11-1 version?15:15
\shsebner,  in feisty? :)15:15
sebner\sh: ^^ hardy. I'll make a sync. new version is a 1bugfix-release15:15
sebner\sh: .12-215:16
sebneräh15:16
sebner.12-115:16
\shsebner, yeah...the old version is sitting in ubuntu since feisty :)15:16
\shsebner, and I uploaded it during feisty :)15:16
sebner\sh: I know as you can see ^^15:16
sebner\sh: do you remember on which platform it FTBFS? Otherwise I will make a sync request as it seems that the build-dep isn't necessary anymore15:17
\shsebner, imho it was just libz missing in feisty for some reason...and no...it could be i386 or amd64...it's long time ago15:19
\shsebner, if it works now...sync and done :)15:19
sebner\sh: hmm no. wired. Another problem ^^  Depend on pciutils-dev (>= 1:2.2.10) we have 2.2.4. What's the way in such a case?15:20
\shsebner, check if 2.2.4 is enough for the new version.15:21
\shsebner, well, buildwise and also running15:21
sebnerkk. thx15:21
sebner\sh: btw. wine landed. wuhu :)15:21
\shsebner, well, yes...but without the last cahnges in .58-0ubuntu3 ...:(15:22
\shso I have to readd them tonight15:22
sebner\sh: did he forget it?15:23
\shsebner, looks like...15:23
sebnerdamn it15:23
\shsebner, just a few lpia adds15:24
sebner\sh: hmm we need the new dependency. So I suppose extracting the fix?15:31
\shsebner, what fix then? it's new upstream...15:32
sebner\sh: argh. I already said that new upstream is a *1* bugfix release. "fix freeze problem on SiS741 series chipsets"15:34
\shah15:34
\shthen I wonder why they need a new pciutils...15:34
\shand why it's not working with our version in main?15:34
sebner\sh: * Depend on pciutils-dev (>= 1:2.2.10) and pkg-config, and use15:36
sebner     "pkg-config --libs libpci" to build statically with the correct15:36
sebner     libraries.15:36
sebner\sh: http://pastebin.com/m6dbb634115:37
\shsebner, yes...:) but I wonder, what the fix in the source was, if not using new pciutils or something which relates more on pciutils15:38

sebner\sh: I'll try it :)15:42

bddebianHello sebner, \sh15:54
\shhey bddebian15:54
sebner\sh: I know. I'm just wondering why -e and not -f15:55
\sh-e is enough imho...need to test if -f fails when it's a symlink ;)15:56
\shsebner, which should fail, if Makefile is a symlink to something else...because of the existence of -h ;)15:57
sebner\sh: well I hope you'll upload it though I'm using -f ^^15:57
\shsebner, no..I don't care :)15:58

ScottKdholbach: I see we are not going to agree on Envy.  I'm not going to ack it, but I also sent a comment to the bug just now saying I don't want to stop other motu-release people from approving it if they think it should go in.16:09
dholbachScottK: thanks - I realised that others were abstaining from the discussion16:10
dholbachScottK: how is the motu release team doing otherwise?16:10
ScottKSeems fine.16:10
ScottKI think we could use the extra 2 months that Dapper got for bug fixing.16:10
ScottKA lot of things seemed to come late.16:10
dholbachScottK: I guess that makes sense - sounds like good feedback for the "release cycle" session at uds16:11
ScottKPersonally the late arrival of python-central sucked a lot of my time away from what I wanted to be working on.16:12
dholbachwith late arrival you mean the bugs that were fixed late?16:13

dholbachto me it seems like we're in much better shape than we were 2 months before dapper release though16:18

ScottKGetting setools unforked was another time sump I hadn't planned on.16:21
LaserJockdholbach: perhaps, I have a bit more of an uneasy feeling, but yeah, there was a lot of "umm, this isn't gonna make it" with dapper16:21

sebner\sh: well the good thing is that I can reuse my debdiff. I'm just curious if it's a candidate17:38
\shsebner, well, you need to provide at least new version numbers...and you have to remove all debian/ dir changes :)17:38
\shsebner, just the code fix is important for SRU ..17:39
sebner\sh: what debian/dir changes? the package is the same since feisty!?17:39
SpookyETBuilding debs is a bitch. You've got tools upon tools upon tools.17:39
\shsebner, updating standards version, debian/rules etc. :)17:39
\shSpookyET, you never used rpm and .spec files...17:40
sebner\sh: Sry I don't understand. just different versions numbers yes but the debdiff should be the same17:40
DaveMorrishow do you add/remove new content to a config file when packages are installed, anyone got an example?17:40
SpookyETNo, I have not. I've used pacman and one simple PKBUILD file.17:40
Spec\sh: have too.17:41
\shsebner, no.. the change to debian/rules is not going into SRU, the improved copyright notice doesn't go in, and the standards version change doesn't go into an SRU :)17:41
\shsebner, so only a new changelog entry and the source fix in chips.h is important :)17:42
\shSpookyET, pacman? the suse packman?17:42
SpookyETno, Arch Linux17:42
SpookyETIt's grandma easy. A simple PKGBUILD file and one command: makepkg17:43
SpookyET99% of the time with no arguments.17:43
\shdamn...I can't use "cool" anymore and now I need to be careful to use .spec , too ;)17:43
sebner\sh: ahh now I understand. Ok thx :)17:43
Spec\sh: =P17:44
\shsebner, and now for the fun of it, we have one version in 2 releases (feisty/gutsy) so you need to adjust the ubuntu rev to something else then just -1ubuntu2 ,-)17:44
Spec\sh: i don't log/read mentions of "spec" 'cause it's always "did you read the damned spec?!" or "check the spec sheet on it!"17:45

ScottKyou/your18:08
\shScottK, well, I think everything which was invented 2007-02-02 ;)18:11
\shinsert "after"18:11
ScottKYeah.  I've got a circu 2001 laptop that runs Hardy reasonably well.  Actually far better than Gutsy because acpi was broken for it in 2.6.22.18:11
ScottKcircu/circa18:12
\shScottK, serious...when we have a working piece of software for a delicate area like powersaving, I would rely more on something in main, then a piece of software which last upstream version was released in 200518:13
ScottKWell when that laptop was on Gutsy I was using gkrellem because it worked.18:14
ScottKThe modern stuff didn't18:14
ScottKIt's a balance thing.18:14
\shScottK, but compare the new upstream releases between your gkrellm and athcool e.g. I mean, we have to be careful about what software can do to our users hardware (I'll remember this damn discussion about laptop-mode of ubuntu grills laptop hd just because nobody understand the s.m.a.r.t. manufacture data ) :=18:17
ScottKRight. I agree about being careful, but one of the nice things about Linux is that you can, in fact, continue to use older hardware.  Let's not throw that away.18:17
\shScottK, no...but we should deal with software, which is rotten and stinks, and doesn't get cleaned up from debian archives in time for intrepid :)18:20
ScottKAgreed.18:20

JontheEchidnaCould the REVU admins re-sync the REVU uploaders keyring?18:44
=== danielm_ is now known as danielm
RainCTJontheEchidna: sure, one moment :)19:13
JontheEchidnaRainCT: Thanks :)19:14
RainCTJontheEchidna: what's your Launchpad ID? (knowing it I can sync your key first)19:15
JontheEchidnaechidnaman19:15
RainCTJontheEchidna: ok, done19:17
JontheEchidnathanks19:17
RainCTno problem :)19:18
JontheEchidnaSo how do I upload a package to REVU?19:22
RainCT!revu19:22
ubotuREVU is a web-based tool to give people who have worked on Ubuntu packages a chance to "put their packages out there" for other people to look at and comment on in a structured manner. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Packages/REVU19:22
RainCTisn't it explained there?19:22
JontheEchidnamaybe I missed it...19:22
JontheEchidnaOh, the dput stuff19:23
RainCTyes19:23
mok0Why is hardy's devscripts package so far behind?19:52
RainCTmok0: because you haven't merged it :)19:56
ScottKmok0: You might look if linitian needs updating while you're at it.19:58
RainCTScottK: there's a new version too20:00
* ScottK has no time for anything but displayconfig hacking right now, so feel free to go for it.20:01
RainCTScottK: it can probably be synced, but does it need a FFe?20:01
ScottK\sh, jdong, or YokoZar: I'll be unable to upload probably for a week after today, so if you want wine backported, please debdiff me.20:02
ScottKRainCT: It's in Main20:02
RainCThm, true ^^20:02
RainCTbtw, if a sync is requested today does it need a big-freeze-exception, or not, or does this depend on the archive guy who looks at it?20:03
ScottKException process is different in Main.20:04
* ScottK would suggest ping slangasek (just did) and see how he feels about it.20:04
RainCTthis last question was for universe20:05
ScottKWhat package?20:05
slangasekchumbawumba?20:06
ScottKSorry.  Thought we were still talking lintian20:06
ScottKslangasek: The question was would it be desireable to update lintian at this point.20:06
RainCTScottK: any package in general. as when someone looks the next time at some sync there's probably already big freeze20:07
=== pgquiles_ is now known as pgquiles
slangasekScottK: are there enough new goodies in 1.23.46 to justify it?20:08
ScottKUse your judgement as I can't tell you when someone looks next20:08
ScottKslangasek: I like it for "Warn if the .diff.gz contains changes while the package uses a patch system."20:09
ScottKIt's a long list though.20:09
slangasekScottK: then I'm amenable20:10
ScottKslangasek: Thanks.20:10
geserdoesn't it also contain better checks for bashism?20:10
ScottKRainCT: Would you be up for checking if the new lintian builds/runs here?20:10
ScottKgeser: It's a long list20:10
ScottKI think it does20:10
geser:)20:10
ScottKSomeone please look into it.20:11
* RainCT wonders why he has linda 0.3.26ubuntu2 when in debian there's 0.3.24 -.-20:11
* ScottK goes back to comitting atrocities on kde-guidance.20:11
RainCTScottK: sure, one moment20:11
ScottKRainCT: Linda's been removed IIRC20:11
geseryes, linda is gone20:12
DktrKranzstani, I tried drpython on Hardy and I can open files normally. Is there a specific procedure to trigger the issue^20:12
geserDebian bug #46903920:13
ubotuDebian bug 469039 in ftp.debian.org "RM: linda -- RoM; deprecated" [Serious,Open] http://bugs.debian.org/46903920:13
RainCToh. it had some nix checks, though20:13
ScottKThe theory is they're all in Lintian.  Practice is often different than theory.20:14
RainCTwill, I'll file bugs in lintian then :P20:14
LaserJockjames_w: so it looks to be a MOTU problem (in regard to the ubuntu-bugsquad thread)20:15
LaserJockor at least ubuntu-dev20:16
LaserJocknot sure what other Core Devs do20:16
RainCTScottK: new lintian builds fine, installing it now20:18
james_wLaserJock: sorry, what is the MOTU problem?20:18
LaserJockjames_w: requiring debdiffs20:18
LaserJockjames_w: you didn't find any triaging wiki page that said to ask for a debdiff?20:18
james_wLaserJock: yes, however there is some good reasoning behind it.20:19
james_whttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Responses#head-bca0f1c95c38399375e738b3f5ddd894f44f1b4f20:19
james_whowever, we don't really have anything better to answer with right now.20:20
LaserJockinteresting20:20
LaserJockthat at least isn't making it mandatory, just saying it's got better chances20:20
LaserJockalthough I think that's more or less how it goes20:20
LaserJockI don't think we've ever closed a bug because it didn't have a debdiff20:21
ScottKI think it's like asking for a new package review for something from a bzr branch.  You can do it, but the number of potential reviewers goes down.20:21
james_wthere are a few problems that are combining to make this worse than it should be, so I'd like to get input from everyone to get and idea of what the process should look like, and then we can move towards it.20:22
LaserJockwell, I think having people who don't know what there doing not touch bug reports would be a good idea20:22
LaserJocki.e. if you don't know just leave it alone20:22
james_wLaserJock: do you have an example?20:23
LaserJockthe status flippers20:23
LaserJockor Importance flippers actually20:23
james_wwell you need to be in bugcontrol to change Importance, so they have shown a certain level of understanding.20:24
LaserJockuhh... yeah20:24
james_wbut yes, that should be the rule, I agree.20:24
LaserJockthat would be the problem, IMO20:24
LaserJockbugcontrol is darn near meaningless20:24
james_wI don't think that's true.20:24
LaserJockk, I'd love to be wrong20:25
LaserJockI just see a lot of bugmails that indicate that the person doing the work doesn't know anything about the bug or the software20:26
RainCTbug 21475220:27
ubotuLaunchpad bug 214752 in lintian "Please sync lintian 1.23.46 (main) from Debian unstable (main)." [Wishlist,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/21475220:27
james_wyou could say that a MOTU uploading a debdiff knows little about the bug or the software, and has more potential to damage Ubuntu as a whole.20:27
LaserJockI agree20:28
james_wHowever I am sure there are cases where people in bugcontrol overstep their mark.20:28
LaserJockwholeheartedly20:28
LaserJockI'd so a whole lot of bugcontrol is busy work20:29
LaserJocksome of which is necessary20:29
james_wthat's why I think it would be good to have more ways for people triaging reports to escalate them to people that may understand development better.20:29
LaserJockbut I think we can maybe get everything more efficient20:29
james_whowever there are obviously issues with that, for instance the lack of developer time, so we need to move there slowly.20:30
james_wLaserJock: I'd agree with that.20:30
LaserJockwe need a cohesive strategy that includes both bug triaging and developers20:31
james_wagreed20:31
LaserJockmy feeling is that the two have kinda "gone their separate ways"20:31
james_wI'm going to spend a few days soliciting feedback from that thread on the issue, and then see if we need to make any development process changes at the time.20:31
LaserJockwe need to really have a look at our processes and policies20:32
james_wanother thing that is a problem at the moment is that there is no good way to represent all of the states that a patch in launchpad can be in.20:32
LaserJockstrip them down to what is needed20:32
LaserJockand get the documentation together20:32
james_wso the two communities need to decide on a structure, and then (with the help of launchpad) implement that and stick to it.20:32
cbx33LaserJock, !!!20:32
LaserJockas there's just too much for a lot of people to keep track of right now20:32
cbx33yo yo yo dude20:32
LaserJockhi Pete20:33
james_wLaserJock: yes, I agree.20:33
LaserJockfundamentally though, we gotta have MOTUs on the same page20:33
LaserJockwhich I believe is a real issue20:33
james_wLaserJock: apart from patches, is there any other area that you would like to see bugcontrol and -motu converge in?20:33
LaserJockwe certainly need to agree on tags, statuses, and Importance20:34
LaserJocktriagers need to know how to most effectively get things to developers20:34
mok0ScottK, RainCT, I will merge devscripts then20:34
LaserJockand developers need to help the triagers know what they want20:34
mok0ScottK, RainCT, and take a look at lintian afterwards20:35
james_wLaserJock: great, thanks, we can look at those at some point then.20:36
LaserJockperhaps what we need is this20:36
LaserJocka list of every develper process20:36
LaserJockthat describes what the developer, a contributor, and a triager should be doing20:36
james_wthat would be great.20:37
LaserJockthen we can build good processes and policies to match20:37
LaserJockand make sure that we're on the same page20:37
james_wyeah, it definitely sounds like UDS material.20:37
james_wpost-hardy at least :-)20:37
james_ware you going?20:37
LaserJockno, sadly I was hoping to defend my dissertation around that time20:38
james_wah, good luck with that.20:38
LaserJockI would encourage though, that UDS discussion only be a part of the solution20:38
james_wIt won't all be done at UDS anyway, so there will be plenty of opportunity for input.20:39
LaserJockwe need buy-in and feedback from everybody, not just the people at UDS20:39
james_wLaserJock: I agree totally20:39
james_wit's just a great opportunity for discussion of this sort of thing.20:40
LaserJocksure20:40
LaserJockI've just had enough "Oh, but we decided that at UDS" experiences to be wary20:40
james_wsure20:40
SpookyETWhere can I find the xulrunner deb generation files?20:41
LaserJockI'm also thinking we should maybe ditch as much Universe/Main diff as we can in our processes20:41
james_wI imagine in this case what would be discussed would not be the specifics, but the way in which each side wants to know what they should be doing, and the boundaries that they can expect.20:41
james_wLaserJock: that sounds sensible20:41
LaserJockwe've done a pretty good job of that so far, but there's probably more to do20:41
james_wisn't the proposal to drop the distinction in the archive still hanging around?20:42
LaserJockyeah20:42
LaserJockand certianly it would be a good idea to have matching policies for if that ever happens20:42
james_wyes, the confusion would be endless if not.20:44
SpookyETWhere can I find the firefox 3 deb creation files? are the "debian" folders shared anywhere?20:50
LaserJockSpookyET: did you get the source package?20:50
SpookyETI have the firefox source, but where can I find the "debian" folder that ubuntu created. I want to modify some things20:51
LaserJockif you got the Ubuntu source package the debian directory is in the unpacke source20:53
LaserJock*unpacked20:53
LaserJockSpookyET: you might want to look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MozillaTeam/Build/Apt or https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MozillaTeam/Build/Bzr20:55
