artfwoHi! May I ask how to fix lintian warning about "debian-changelog-file-is-a-symlink" in multi-binary CDBS package?02:29
bddebianHeya gang02:50
RAOFHowdie bddebian02:53
bddebianHeya RAOF02:54
cheatrCould someone review this perl module that I packaged? http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?package=liblocale-hebrew-perl03:56
LaserJockanybody about that happens to use Jabber?04:35
artfwoLaserJock: i do04:35
LaserJockartfwo: are you running Hardy?04:36
RAOFAs do I.04:36
artfwoyes04:36
LaserJockwell, I'm having the weirdest situation right now04:36
LaserJockI've tried 3 gnome clients and all of them seem to connect but no people show up. I can't seen any contacts04:36
artfwoare these people currently offline?04:36
LaserJockbut I tried 2 KDE/Qt clients and they both work fine04:36
LaserJockI have about 5 online people04:37
LaserJockbut with the gnome clients I can't even see offline people04:37
LaserJockit's just blank04:37
artfwowhat gnome clients did you try?04:37
LaserJockgajm, pidgin, and gossip04:37
LaserJock*gajim04:38
RAOFLaserJock: Tried empathy?  That works for me; you'll need the telepathy-gabble package to have a jabber handler.04:38
* jdong is considering committing a cardinal sin over the summer...04:38
jdongthat is, running opensuse 11 for the summer on my macbook04:38
RAOFjdong: Playing starcraft unto 3 in teh morning?04:38
LaserJockjdong: don't do it!04:38
jdongRAOF: that's just ditching exam studying ;-)04:38
LaserJockjdong: maybe try Fedora?04:38
jdongLaserJock: well... I gave fedora 9 a shot yesterday actually... my initial reactions are not positive04:38
RAOFFedora looks fairly nice; I've got me a VM image that occasionally gets a run.04:39
artfwoLaserJock: very strange indeed, but did you try "show offline buddies" option?04:39
jdongLaserJock: I think I will hold off before saying much more in case my judgement changes04:39
LaserJockartfwo: yep04:39
LaserJockjdong: oh really? I really like Fedora 904:39
jdongbut getting an error dialog that says "The relationship trust hierarchy is invalid" on the first set of updates....04:39
LaserJockfor me much better than openSUSE04:39
jdongthe re-what?04:39
jdongit ended with "This dialog is a known bug. Do not report this. This will be fixed in the next UI rollout"04:40
jdonggranted, I found it amusing04:40
RAOFOooooh, owch.04:40
jdongand proceeded to use yum from the CLI04:40
jdongthe overall polish and appearance is quite attractive04:40
RAOFYay stable upgrades?04:40
jdongRAOF: oh don't GET ME STARTED04:40
jdongRAOF: it installs a policy kit update. Guess what it does when installing said update?04:41
jdongRAOF: it forcibly restarts dbus+hal, which actually cascaded into my whole X session crashing.04:41
RAOFUndoes all your configuration?04:41
RAOFEven better!04:41
jdongwhee!04:41
LaserJockjdong: serious?04:41
jdongLaserJock: no joke....04:41
LaserJockI've not had any problems with updates04:41
RAOFAt least you get to test how well it recovers from half-configured packages.04:41
jdongRAOF: that, it seems to do remarkably well04:42
pwnguinpackagekit?04:42
LaserJockRAOF: grrr, empathy does the same thing04:42
jdongpwnguin: well.. yeah. yum/rpm.04:42
LaserJockRAOF: it connects, but there's no contacts04:42
RAOFLaserJock: That's really, really wierd.04:43
LaserJockyumex is what I use mostly04:43
RAOFBecause it *totally* works here.04:43
LaserJockpackagekit can only install one package at a time04:43
pwnguini donno. packagekit doesn't seem to offer anything significant versus update-manager04:43
jdongyeah ultimately I want to diversify my distro collection04:43
artfwoLaserJock: perhaps there's some global gnome option (like proxy), that all gnome client try to use?04:43
jdongparticularly after *unmentioned Debian vulnerability.....*04:43
LaserJockRAOF: I have -proposed enabled. I wondered if something there killed it. But it'd be weird that all gnome clients would do it04:43
jdongFWIW, I'm using finch (libpurple) on hardy-proposed04:44
jdongand it seems to be fine04:44
RAOFLaserJock: I've got -proposed enabled, too.04:44
LaserJockbah04:44
RAOFProxy craziness?04:44
LaserJockI don't have a proxy04:44
LaserJockand in the gnome proxy setting it says "Direct Internet Connection"04:44
LaserJockit's gotta be something like that though04:45
LaserJockI don't think all the gnome clients use the same libraries04:45
RAOFThat's an obvious piece of desktop-specific shared config.04:46
LaserJockdang it, this is a brand new install, don't tell me I've screwed it up already :-)04:48
artfwopidgin and gajim have an XMPP console, you can try to trace the problem with it04:49
pwnguindoes jabber store contacts?04:49
artfwopwnguin: of course04:50
LaserJockartfwo: ok, got the console, but there's nothing going on04:51
LaserJockyou know how to use the console in pidgin?04:51
artfwoblah, it works only when you're logged in04:52
artfwobut pidgin --debug should do it04:53
LaserJockah, after a while pidgin says it timed out04:54
LaserJockok04:55
LaserJockusing --debug I see all my contacts getting spit out to the terminal04:55
LaserJockbut nothing shows up in the UI04:55
artfwonot that's even weirder04:56
artfwo*now04:56
LaserJockbut now I get : <error code='503' type='cancel'><service-unavailable xmlns='urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:xmpp-stanzas'/></error>04:57
LaserJockand then a bit later it disconnects04:57
artfwoI've got the same problem with jabber.org server in pidgin in the past04:58
artfwosometimes it just kicked me off04:58
artfwohence no contacts visible04:58
LaserJockok04:59
LaserJockI know jabber.org just switched servers and they had some downtime04:59
LaserJockbut I'm not sure how that would explain why the kopete and psi connected no problem04:59
artfwoare they connected now?04:59
LaserJockI only do one at a time05:00
LaserJockbut yes, I just ran psi and it took just a second for all my contacts to come up05:00
=== RoAk is now known as RoAkSoAx
artfwoi give up then :)05:01
LaserJockartfwo: I'm able to talk with Hobbsee via psi right now05:03
LaserJockit actually works05:03
LaserJockok, well screw it. I'll just use kopete and try again tomorrow05:05
artfwoi've just logged to my old jabber.org account with pidgin, everything seems to be okay05:07
LaserJockI'll try a reboot and see if that possibly does anything, but other than that I'm stuck05:08
LaserJockperhaps I should sign up for a different account and try that too05:08
LaserJockok, last ditch try I booted into Fedora and at least the buddy list shows up05:30
LaserJockbut it says nobody is online which is a bit weird05:30
LaserJockoh wait, it just disconnected like on Ubuntu05:31
RoAkSoAxlol xD05:31
LaserJockwell, I'm going to say it's some weird jabber.org problem for now05:31

siretartsuperm1: TheMuso: could you please tell me your plans about vlc?09:33
siretartI noticed that the package has seriously diverged from debian (7.5M diff)09:34
siretartand it needs to be rebuilt against the new ffmpeg09:34
=== Amaranth is now known as NotAmaranth
wgrantsiretart: VLC in Ubuntu has a couple of embedded source packages (real Ubuntu source packages, not bits of upstream source) that shouldn't be embedded.09:42
siretartwgrant: I didn't look at the package for quite some time, but that's my impression, yes09:43
