asacyeah i see. i am fine with everything as long as we split things into multiple scripts00:00
asaci think i can understand it, but probably would need to uncover my perl-fu from dirt :)00:01
asacsplice @$pkgs_order, 0, $#$pkgs_order + 1, @ARGV if $#ARGV >= 0;00:01
asac$#$pkgs_order00:01
Jazzvascary...00:01
* Jazzva has to learn new things :)00:01
asachehe00:02
Jazzvabut it looks like it could be readable to me...00:02
asaci think i have a perl advanced programming book somewhere ;)00:02
asacthese pointers scare me ;)00:02
ftaor this: http://www.sofaraway.org/ubuntu/tmp/build-ppa.pl.txt ?00:03
asacdereferencing and all ... anyway. as long as things are maintained in single chunks of code that could in worst case be replaced one-by-one in case you get hit by a truck i am fine :)00:03
asaci think thats ok00:03
asacas long as the script stay at that level of complexity00:03
asacfta: maybe give me a refresh. wasn't there something like $_ ?00:04
ftayes00:05
asacand something that would implicitly catch up arguments from that?00:05
asace.g. implicit function arguments ... i just vaguely remember.00:05
asacah ... and shift ... is that replaceble by something more explicit in functions?00:06
* Jazzva is reading about Perl on wikipedia... "Many earlier computer languages, such as Fortran and C, were designed to make efficient use of expensive computer hardware. In contrast, Perl is designed to make efficient use of expensive computer programmers." hehe (sorry about the offt)00:06
asacright ;)00:06
asacdepends on how you define "efficient" here :)00:07
asacfta: point is that what we are doing here is also kind of mini prototype on how the distro maintenance in future might be00:08
asace.g. everything maintained in bzr00:09
asacno package uploads, but pushing to a branch to publish and so on00:09
ftawell, i'm nearly there with the .head branches and my ppa00:11
ftai use the 2 perl scripts above + http://www.sofaraway.org/ubuntu/tmp/update-pkg.sh.txt00:11
asacyeah, but it becomes tricky to do the same thing on a large scale00:13
asacwith more variables00:13
asaccomplexity grows exponential00:13
ftadepends00:14
ftawhat else do you propose we should do then ? I'm all hears :)00:15
asaci think for us its working quite well. i don't feel qualified enough to give a complete overview of what is required to maintain the complete distro yet.00:19
asacfta: i am sure there will be interesting discussions on this topic at UDS00:20
asacif not in a core session, then there are certainly a bunch of people there that thought alot about it00:20
ftaoh, you mean the future apt stuff, not our own mozilla business00:31
asacyeah ;)00:35
asaci think there will even be a core session about it00:35
asacmost likely in the platform team track00:35
asacfta: 399 bugs ;)00:48
fta?00:48
asaclast chance to see the bug count below 400 :(00:49
asacfirefox-3.000:49
asacwe should probably reset the crashers button00:49
asaci mean 85% percent are probably due to flash (if not libflashsupport)00:49
asacall crashers older than 5 days that have no duplicates :) -> done00:50

Jazzva192985 should be Fix Released, since b5 is out... (if topdog is not receiving any more crashes ... will post a comment)00:54
asaci cannot exclude bugs from the list that would match "crash"00:54
asacwhat a desaster00:54
asacthose crashes really hide any important issue for sure00:54
asacJazzva: i closed that already ;)00:55
Jazzva*reload* oh, look at that00:55
Jazzva:)00:55
ftaall that are not __kernel_vsyscall() probably need review, some may have value00:55
asacfta: most _kernel_vsyscall have a proper stacktrace00:56
asacits just that apport is confused what is the top00:56
asacfta: anyway, this flash thing showed all kind of stacktrace00:56
asacunless we see a null-deref somewhere we can probably just close them00:57
asac(or a dupe a testcase)00:57
asacnull-deref, duped and testcased ones might have value imo00:57
asacas a first measure we could reassign them all to xulrunner-1.9 :)00:58
asaclike as a sink for anything that we processed :)00:58
asac(once)00:58
asacmost issues will most likely be reported against firefox-3.0 ;) ... so keeping that list small has top-prio ;)00:59
asacbut i think i already lost that race :(00:59
asacnsNavHistoryResult01:00
asaci remember that i duped some related to those01:01
asacthe sad thing is that launchpad doesn't even search attachments ... i am not even sure if it searches comments01:01
asacnor am i aware of any trick to make it do that01:01

asacwhy do we need this armel patch at all?01:49
asaci think we should push that to intrepit and work on a 1ubuntu0.8.4 package that is decoupled from debian01:55
asace.g. just upgrade of upstream sources01:55
asacif we trust debian enough we can use the same orig though :)01:56

fta[reed], another flood of crashtest commits :)  Why didn't the committer use title like "Add crashtest for 385289-1" instead of zillions of variations of 'Add crashtest' 'Add crashtests' 'Adding a crashtest' 'Adding crashtest.' ...14:36
[reed]because it's easier to change one character? :)14:36
[reed]bonsai groups commits with the same commit message, so he had to vary it somewhat14:37
[reed]so that the commits would show up as being separate14:37
asac[reed]: only if they get committed in the same minute :)14:37
ftai know but it reads like crap on bonsai14:37
asac(or even second?)14:37
[reed]asac: I don't think there's a time limit14:37
[reed]if two commits done after each other have the same commit time14:38
asache? i think its similar to cvsps14:38
[reed]er14:38
asacthat uses time + commitmessage to bundle14:38
[reed]if two commits done after each other have the same commit message*14:38
asachmm14:38
[reed]dunno14:38
[reed]I know you can commit a while afterwards14:38
[reed]and it still groups it14:38
[reed]if nobody commits in between14:38
asacyeah might be14:38
asacif commits take long it would break the grouping14:38
ftayep, it groups consecutive commits with the same title, disregarding the dates14:38
asacanyway ... hopefully soon this is history14:39

saivannasac : Since the Final Release is tomorrow, you probably want to take a look at bug 194970 to avoid the need to fix it in the next development release?14:50
ubotuLaunchpad bug 194970 in firefox-3.0 "[Hardy] Incorrect .desktop files" [Medium,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/19497014:50
saivannthunderbird and sunbird are still affected in Hardy14:50
asacsaivann: there are complains that that fix broke the menu for kubuntu14:51
asacnot sure if its really the right thing to do14:51
saivannasac : Really? The firefox-3.0 is already fixed, I will give a try with kubuntu14:52
asacwell ... there are complains that firefox doesn't show up in kubuntu menu anymore ... most likely caused by this14:52
asacnot sure how authentic that claim is14:52
saivannasac : In fact, all we did is to follow desktop-file-validate advice14:52
asacyeah14:52
asacbut if this is really problem then kde doesn't care about that ;)14:53
asacsaivann: anyway ... no uploads to hardy anymore14:53
saivannasac : Ok14:53
asacsaivann: why is ffox 3 in that branch: Categories=GTK;Network;14:54
asacand firefox 2 still Categories=Network14:55
saivannasac : Mmh I don't know, I did not do that change.14:55
asaci remember that this GTK;Network; thing was reported to break14:55
asacmost likely the GTK prefix is bogus14:55
asactbird just has Network as well14:56
saivannasac : I just tried kubuntu Hardy RC and Firefox shows correctly in menus, I did not test kde414:56
asaci think it was kde414:56
asacyeah ... this GTK prefix is only in ffox 3 :(14:56
saivannasac : Bad, but sorry I really don't know who put that here :)14:57
asacbut well ... given that kubuntu folks vetoed and thus we had to put ffox lang packs into the -gnome langpack i don't feel responsible at all for KDE anymore :(14:57
asacimo that was pretty ignorant. i am sure that at least 50% of KDE users use firefox ... most likely even all expect the kubuntu devs ;)14:58
asacanyway i stop ranting ;)14:58
saivannasac : :( , I will try kde4 and if you don't get any messages about it, it's because firefox showed just well in menus14:58
