ScottKnxvl: You could prepare a debdiff, but it's just got a changelog entry, so it's fairly pointless.02:21

RAOFHobbsee: Because either one WorksForMe(tm)04:48
HobbseeRAOF: the former.04:53
RAOFHobbsee: Is this because name_of_document isn't coming up as an item?  It needs to be somewhere fairly specific to be indexed, IIRC.04:55

xtknightwhat's the "diff splash" patch system06:51

xtknighton source pakage elinks06:51
jdongoh oh! I know! One clucks in defiance and the other...06:51
jdongor is that the wrong punchline?06:51
RAOFHm.  Probably just inline patching in the diff.gz.06:52
xtknighti see a debian/patches/ folder with .diff files06:52
xtknightbut i'm not sure what to use to "push" them all so i can make a new one06:52
dholbachhi RAOF06:52
RAOFxtknight: What's in debian/rules?  That'd be a fallback herustic :)06:53
xtknightyeah except im clueless at reading rules but here it is http://rafb.net/p/lwIYmE66.html06:54
xtknightit just looks like an unmanaged patch system06:54
xtknightsleezy. tell me why would someone even take the time to write something like that when they could use dpatch?06:54
* xtknight must be missing something, but it wouldn't be a first time06:55
RAOFxtknight: Because they didn't know about dpatch?  Because they thought they could do it easier?  I mean, dpatch requires a whole lot of effort :)06:56
xtknightit does?06:56
xtknightalright i guess i must have it much easier then... my dpatch-edit-patch seems to work graet for me, maybe they have to do something a lot harder :o06:57
jdongxtknight: but you have to include a .make, and add 2 dependencies to debian/rules targets.....06:58
jdongxtknight: all of which time could be spent writing a recursive scheme patchsystem!06:58
RAOFYeah, I was being silly.06:59
ScottKBecause they made the package before dpatch-edit-patch was written?07:00
xtknighthehe07:01
jdongpfft dpatch-edit-patch always existed. It's just a story made up to scare the little ones.07:01
jdonglike Redhat 7.07:01

jdongrule #3 of #ubuntu-motu: When someone comes in to say good morning, it's probably bedtime.07:08
RAOFStevenK: What was the question? :)07:08
AnAntHello, is it appropriate to use dh_icons for an icon themes package ?07:09
StevenKRAOF: So, with the blob, if I restart X without unloading it, it looks fine, except the 2d off-screen buffer is stuffed, and things like Xv don't show the real content.07:10
RAOFStevenK: That's cool!07:10
StevenKIt so isn't.07:11
RAOFYeah, fair crack of the whip.07:11
RAOFWell, there's always the 'try nouveau' approach.07:11
StevenKWhich means no WoW, I suspect :-)07:12
RAOFNot necessarily!07:13
RAOFAlthough, if you'd like fast, not-horribly-glitchy rendering, yes :(.07:13
StevenKYay for 3D driver programming by guesswork07:14
RAOFOh, that's software mesa I'm talking about :)07:14
RAOFWoW dies with a shader error with the nv4x gallium driver :)07:15
StevenKHeh07:15
RAOFBut this might actually be an old mesa bug, rather than a problem with nouveau per se.07:17
RAOFAnd it's not actually 3d driver programming by guesswork; they pretty much know how the thing works.  Yay renouveau!07:18
StevenKRAOF: Which bit is taking time, then?07:19
xtknighthttp://packages.ubuntu.com/source/hardy/elinks07:19
xtknightum this should be Core Devs not MOTU Devs for Maintainer right?07:19
xtknight!info elinks07:21
RAOFStevenK: Developer time, apparently.  There aren't actually that many devs working on nouveau who understand gallium (which is apparently really hard without an intimate knowledge of 3d hardware).07:21

asomethingHey! I've got a question. If I've got a new package I'd like to get into Ubuntu ready, should I upload to REVU now or wait until the Intrepid archives open? It's obviously too late for Hardy...19:00
james_wasomething: you could upload now, but it probably wouldn't be looked at until intrepid opens anyway, so it wouldn't make much difference.19:02
asomethingya, i figure folks are a bit busy about now =)19:03
zorglu_q. i heard that canonical had a 'program' to help company package their software for ubuntu, anybody got the name of this program ? and who i can talk to to get more info about it ?19:09

jdongslangasek: yeah I know it's not pretty but it's important :(19:35
slangasekto be fair, hardy is the first release to even /have/ flashplugin-nonfree for amd64...19:36
jdongslangasek: I'm gonna try the stupid approach and blindly rebuild it against the new xulrunner and see if that does anything :D19:36
slangasekeh, or maybe it was in gutsy (?)19:36
jdongslangasek: yeah it was in gutsy but not working well19:36

xtknightposted a debdiff about that already on the page19:58
LaserJockit looks fairly harmless (though we should fix it) but the reporter says it causes the removal to fail19:58
xtknightim going to see if that's true19:58

megabyte405Hey - all the packages I upload to my PPA are getting built for hardy, but I don't see where that is configured or an option.  How can I, for example, upload to Gutsy or Feisty?20:03
xtknightmegabyte405, you have to build the packages on a gutsy or feisty system20:04
xtknightand then uploading the resulting source_changes20:04
megabyte405xtknight: ah, great, thanks.  Looks like it's time to download some install discs :)20:14
xtknightmegabyte405, ya right now i'm about to build a feisty package so im geting the feisty VM appliance and using virtualbox/vmware20:14
megabyte405yep, I basically survive as a dev on VMware :)20:15
xtknightmegabyte405, well these only work w/ vmware: http://isv-image.ubuntu.com/vmware/20:15
megabyte405Hardy is really really snappy on vmware20:15
xtknightas a host or guest?20:15
xtknighti always thought ubuntu was a bit slow as a guest, but it's great as a host20:15
xtknightanother option is a feisty pbuilder but i never found out how to generate source_changes with pdebuild20:16
megabyte405as a guest20:16
blueyedmegabyte405, xtknight: I think you only need to change the "pocket" in debian/changelog..20:16
xtknightblueyed, ah maybe, if the pkg is exactly the same other than the version?20:17
blueyedxtknight: I think he wants to backport packages from hardy to e.g. gutsy? Source doesn't matter really here, AFAICS20:17
xtknightblueyed, ah it could if dependencies varied.  but you're prolly right it would prolly work20:18
xtknightwould certainly be a good thing to "try"20:18
xtknighti mean if the hardy source used new deps that gutsy doesnt have20:19
* xtknight is a paranoid20:19
* xtknight is paranoid even20:19
blueyedxtknight: sure.. but then it would fail also when building on the target system itself.. but I guess that's what you've meant.20:20
xtknightyeah it would fail on gutsy but work on hardy :p20:20
blueyedmegabyte405: if you want to build-test it on the target distribution, you can use pbuilder for this..20:20
blueyedmegabyte405: this allows you to easily build packages for e.g. Dapper on a Hardy system. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com20:21
xtknightblueyed, do you know how to get a source_changes from pdebuild?  pdebuild -S doesnt do it20:21
blueyedxtknight: why not just "debuild -S"?20:21
xtknightblueyed, you can use that with pbuilder?20:22
xtknighti dont know how to get into the pbuilder "shell" then20:22
xtknighti'd use debuild -S on my regular machine for hardy.  say i wanted to do debuild -S under a feisty pbuilder..20:22
blueyedxtknight: no, just in the source directory. You want that for uploading, right? So testbuild it using "pdebuild" and then create the changes file using "debuild -S".20:23
xtknighti guess what i need is a feisty chroot not a feisty pbuilder *shrugs*20:23
blueyedxtknight: you can use "debuild" to create source_changes files for any other release.. it does not need to compile etc, so it just works.20:24
xtknightbluefoxicy,  hmm you mean i can run debuild on my hardy machine and make a source_changes for feisty?  how does this work?20:25
xtknightsorry.  blueyed ^20:25
geserxtknight: sure20:26
xtknightjust change the release in debian/changelog?20:26
blueyedxtknight: yes. Why shouldn't it work. You only need to change the pocket/upload-target in debian/changelog.20:26
xtknightis that what you meant?20:26
geseryes20:26
blueyedxtknight: pdebuild is for binaries, which you don't need for source_changes.20:32
xtknightah20:32
xtknightwhat does debuild -S -sd vs -S -sa do?20:32
xtknighti didnt see it in the manual20:32
xtknightdiff between sd/sa20:33
blueyedsee man dpkg-buildpackage. (-sa is source included)20:33
xtknightand you cant make source_changes and binaries at once or can you?20:33
blueyed-sd is without orig sources (-sa includes them). The default is probably depending on the version.20:34
xtknightso "sd" is a lighter option , because PPA QuickStart suggests using that for packages already in the archive20:34
xtknightand i didnt know why20:35
xtknightbecause it only needs the diff20:35
blueyedyes, makes sense, but is not required in most cases (because it appears to be default, AFAIK)20:35
blueyedTried "-S -B" for both?20:35
xtknightnah cant do that20:36
xtknighti guess "debuild && debuild -S" works :)20:36
blueyedyes. or rather pdebuild && debuild -S, that's the most common workflow probably (at least mine)20:37
