crimsunapachelogger: ping siretart if you want to get it in14:47
crimsunwe're using esd instead of the broken pulse version currently in there14:47
apacheloggeryeah, when I finished testing I'll create the debdiff14:48
apacheloggercrimsun: the problem with esd is that it can't be supplied in the default plugins and therefore is unaccessible by default in amarok14:49
* apachelogger also notes that last.fm skipping works for him14:50
apacheloggerI have really no idea why it fails for some people14:50
crimsunapachelogger: you'd ship xineplug_ao_out_pulse* in libxine1-bin, or...?14:53
apacheloggercrimsun: -misc-plugins14:53
crimsunugh14:53
apacheloggercrashev: all default output plugins are in -misc-plugins apparently14:54
apacheloggerbesides, it was that way before pulse got kicked from the package14:54
crimsunyes14:54
crimsunit's just a shame we didn't kick esd into there, too.14:55
apacheloggercrimsun: then KDE would by default depend on esd wouldn't it?14:59

smarteryuriy: Let's test your fix then ;)22:26

eagles0513875and also find ur bug report23:14
apacheloggeryep23:14
apacheloggerapt-get source kdebase23:15
apacheloggerwill fetch the source package23:15
apacheloggerand unpack it23:15
apacheloggerthen you need to edit debian/control23:15
apacheloggeradd a new changelog entry23:15
apacheloggercreate a new source package23:15
eagles0513875will u be on in the morning23:15
apacheloggercreate debdiff of the old package revision to the new package revision23:16
apacheloggerattach the debdiff to the bug report23:16

apacheloggereagles0513875: I'll report one ;-)23:17
apacheloggerbtw23:17
apacheloggerall you need to know to fix this bug is somewhere on wiki.ubuntu.com23:18
eagles0513875apachelogger: i noticed u reported some stuff u want pkged ill help u out with pkging them23:18
apacheloggersearching for packagingguide should explain how to add a new changelog entry, create a source package, what all the lines in debian/control mean23:18
apacheloggerand searching for debdiff should explain how to create such a thingy23:18
apacheloggereagles0513875: yeah, but after hardy release ;-)23:18
eagles0513875apachelogger: ok ahhh gotcha lets say its somethign like this which is probably for ubuntu23:19
eagles0513875would it matter if its pkged on kubuntu or it has to be on ubuntu only23:19
apacheloggerhaha, I think it's months ago that I last reported a bug :P23:19
eagles0513875lol23:19
apacheloggereagles0513875: kubuntu = ubuntu23:19
apacheloggerit's the very same archive23:19
apacheloggerthe very same base23:20
eagles0513875ok so if they r gnome pkgs or kde pkgs doesnt matter right23:20
apacheloggerthe only difference is that we pack different apps on our cd :P23:20
apacheloggereagles0513875: nope23:20
eagles0513875ok23:20
eagles0513875if ur not up for filing a bug report ill see how much i remember about the bug when i wake up lol23:21

eagles0513875this is funny this noob is asking centos related questions in a no centos related channel lol23:22
eagles0513875apachelogger: let me see if i got this bug right there is an issue with a wrong dependency in kde4 using a kde3 dependency23:23

eagles0513875ok23:25
eagles0513875i found this dependency issue23:25
eagles0513875if u click on the kde3 bin that first dependency under it is a kde4 dependency23:25
apacheloggereagles0513875: it's not the order23:26
apacheloggerit's the either X or Y dependency in general23:26
apacheloggerit says23:26
apachelogger-bin either requires -bin-kde323:26
eagles0513875ok23:26
apacheloggeror -runtime-bin-kde423:26
apacheloggerso when you have KDE 3 installed23:26
apacheloggerthen install kubuntu-kde4-desktop23:26
apacheloggerit will install -runtime-bin-kde4 since it is a dependency of kde423:27
apacheloggertherefore -bin-kde3 will be removed since -bin from kde 3 can live with -runtime-bin-kde4 as well according to the current packaging23:27
apacheloggerwhich is wrong23:27
apachelogger-bin _needs_ -bin-kde323:27
apacheloggerbecause -kde4 uses different paths23:27
eagles0513875so basically the bin needs to get removed as well23:27
