Linoliumhi all, I have a silly question03:57
Linoliumdoes anyone here know about the linker ld?03:57
persiaLinolium: You're better off asking your question directly.  While someone might know the answer to your specific question, few are foolhardy enough to admit to complete knowledge of ld, and this may or may not be the ideal forum.04:02
brandonperryI know everything about ld04:02
brandonperry:-P04:02
pwnguinwhat about gold?04:02
brandonperryI lie, I have only used it a couple times04:03
LinoliumI am using ld for my generated code but it is giving jmp calls the wrong address  ie. 0x80000300 instead of 0x00000300  Does anyone know what ld option can fix this?04:03
Linoliummy .map file contains .=(0x80000000+SIZEOF_HEADERS) which is the problem04:03
Linoliumthe code itself is in the correct location04:03
persiaLinolium: That's a much better question.  You might want to specify the package on which you are working, and provide a pastebin of the build log to show context.04:04
LinoliumI am working in windows aiming for taito f3 system that uses a MC68020 processecor04:05
Linoliumusing gcc's windows distro04:05
Linoliumeverything is fine except for the address relocation for jumps04:06
Linoliumin the code04:06
persiaLinolium: In that case, I suspect this isn't the best place to get the answer.  Unfortunately, I don't know which would be the correct forum.04:06
Linoliumthat is what I was afraid of04:06
Linolium:: sigh04:06

\shasac: but at least we won ;)10:33
Q-FUNKpitti: I regularly get people who presume that upgrade-system is a generic package name to report an upgrade failure. figuring out which package to reassing these 3 to is challenging.10:34
cjwatsonQ-FUNK: looks like a dirty CD drive to me; a CD drive cleaning kit might well work wonders. I very much doubt it's an installer bug as such, because actual corrupt packages (as he's reporting) would happen to everyone. However, there's an outside chance that the kernel's driver for his CD is busted, in which case 'linux' would be the appropriate package10:34
cjwatsonQ-FUNK: I doubt we can do anything about his problem in either debian-installer or ubiquity10:34
Q-FUNKcjwatson: looking at his bug, I'm thinking more of e general failure in his IDE controler, for which he is evidently blaming his upgrade.10:36
cjwatsonQ-FUNK: could be; by "driver for his CD" I guess I was including everything in the relevant stack10:36
Q-FUNKcjwatson: replying to someone who already made up their mind thta whatever fried his hardware is our fault generally is a lost cause.10:36
cjwatsonI'd probably include some advice about CD drive cleaning, and toss it over to linux in case they can make anything of it10:37

cjwatsonmunckfish: while it would work, it's not really kosher12:50
cjwatsonmunckfish: Launchpad projects are supposed to correspond to single atomic upstream projects12:51
cjwatsonmunckfish: I suppose it depends on whether you think that cell-gcc is just a branch of gcc (my view) or whether it's part of a separate Cell SDK entity that's permanently forked gcc12:52
munckfishcjwatson: hi, yes this is the problem I have - for normal GCC I'd say keep it separate of course12:52
munckfishhowever, all of these related bits from the Cell SDK page are like a forked collection12:52
munckfishI sort of felt it important to group them together so that was obvious12:53
munckfishI also realise they will go away eventually12:53
munckfishbut having struggled to create a cross tool chain with gcc-4.3 et al, I'm thinking of continuing to maintain these cell-* sources12:53
munckfishSo, do you still think separate or collection?12:54
cjwatsonmunckfish: I would still lean towards separate, but seems like a grey area. Perhaps ask #launchpad for a ruling12:57

alex-weejseb128: it's the same fix that went into many other applets that used to break13:10
seb128alex-weej: that's not very useful to me to understand what it's doing and why13:10
alex-weejbonobo-activation-server is *allowed* to exist across login sessions, the fact that it does is in most cases a bug, but it still shouldn't break objects13:10
alex-weejthe trash applet needs a DBus connection since the move to GIO13:11
seb128alex-weej: isn't that bug #49594?13:11
ubottuLaunchpad bug 49594 in libbonobo "Bonobo-activation-server sometimes is not killed after session restart, leading to many unexpected problems" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/4959413:11
alex-weejseb128: yes, but it's a separate bug that is not important13:11
seb128well, it leads to similar issues13:11
alex-weejif the trash applet process gets activated by bonobo, it inherits the activation server environment by default13:11
alex-weejbonobo specifically has mechanism to allow the activated object to inherit specific env variables from the *activator*13:12
alex-weeji.e. trash applet will take the dbus session bus address from gnome-panel13:12
alex-weejif the patch is applied13:12
seb128why is it working for me without the patch then?13:13
alex-weejbecause your b-a-s exits13:13
alex-weejtrust me, it needs to be in and it will fix this bug.13:13
seb128seems to be a workaround, but it it makes things work better while the libbonobo issue is still there13:14
alex-weejno it's not13:14
alex-weejthere are legitimate cases for b-a-s to exist cross-session, and fixing bug 49594 won't fix this bug in 100% of cases13:14
seb128we had bugs about the trash not showing an icon way before gio and dbus use13:14
ubottuLaunchpad bug 49594 in libbonobo "Bonobo-activation-server sometimes is not killed after session restart, leading to many unexpected problems" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/4959413:14
alex-weejseb128: probably because it still used dbus with gnomevfs13:14
alex-weejseb128: i wrote a patch last year to cause b-a-s to exit with the session, thus resolving 49594. it was rejected.13:15
alex-weeji learnt from the devs that it is supposed to be allowed to outlive a session13:15
seb128but in such cases it has a wrong environment13:16
alex-weejand that fixing dbus-using activated objects is done by telling b-a-s to pass the env vars from the activating process13:16
seb128ie, outdate dbus bus informations13:16
alex-weejwell, it's up to you. the bug will be accepted upstream eventually because it is the right thing to do. if you want to keep triaging these bugs then suit yourself :P13:16
alex-weejand i made all of these arguments about it the first time round. turns out i just didn't understand the bonobo architecture properly.13:17
alex-weejlet me find the bug.13:17
seb128alex-weej: as said before I don't discuss this change, I'm trying to understand what else is broken there13:17
x_dimitriwhat practical advice would you give an open-source enthusiast who would like to get involved as a contributing developer to ubuntu?13:17
x_dimitriI'm talking about coding skills to master (language, paradigms e.t.c.)13:18
alex-weejyou just said what is broken. there is /nothing/ wrong with b-a-s having "outdated" DBUS_SESSION_BUS env. it shouldn't really be there in the first place, as b-a-s outlives dbus sessions13:18
x_dimitriamong other things13:18
dholbachx_dimitri: check out http://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/GettingStarted and the pages linked from there13:18
alex-weejassuming the ideal case that it wasn't there, the env var would have to be passed from the activating process anyway13:18
ograx_dimitri, start in #ubuntu-motu, look through the different available tasks, grab oe and start working on it :)13:18
alex-weejand the way to do that is with the .server definition file XML13:18
seb128alex-weej: is there any case when we want to get the environment from b-a-s then? why not defaulting to use the activator one?13:19
alex-weejyes there is case for getting env from b-a-s13:19
seb128alex-weej: there is lot of .server around and I'm wondering if it makes sense to start change all of those rather than changing b-a-s13:19
x_dimitridholbach: thanks. I have seen those.13:19
dholbachx_dimitri: great13:20
alex-weejfor every other env var that also outlives dbus sessions13:20
x_dimitri:-)13:20
x_dimitriogra:what does 'oe' mean13:20
ograone13:20
alex-weejseb128: don't worry about changing b-a-s. the real fix is to move panel applets away from bonobo. it's coming!13:20
ogramissed a char13:20
seb128alex-weej: well, LC_ALL can change between sessions too, etc13:20
alex-weejit can change *within* sessions13:20
seb128alex-weej: should we apply the same trick to other environment variable?13:21
x_dimitriogra: oh, ok. Thank for your suggestions guys..13:21
alex-weejit's not a trick, it's documented exactly for this case. it's the best of a bad situation.13:21

seb128cjwatson: not sure, gnome-keyring seems to use _NET_WM_STATE_MODAL, _NET_WM_STATE_ABOVE, but mvo might know better14:47
seb128that would also be a wm bug14:48
seb128s/would/could14:48
cjwatsonyou aren't supposed to use gdk_window_set_modal_hint on non-transient windows, apparently, and gnome-ssh-askpass doesn't have anything it could be transient on14:49
pittitkamppeter: right, what Riddell said; you have to do that for all architectures where it failed14:50
cjwatsongdk_window_set_modal_hint doesn't obviously help, anyway14:52

tkamppeterThanks, pitti and Riddell. I see this button for the first time, is it a new LP feature or a core-dev-only feature?14:54
pittitkamppeter: it has recently been made available to developers14:54
seb128ok, so I don't know14:54
cjwatson(or else gnome-keyring has the same problem!)14:54
tkamppeterFeature request: "Retry all failed archs" button.14:55
=== emgent_ is now known as emgent
tkamppeterpitti, with "developers" you mean core-devs or also MOTUs? Or does it depend in which repository the package resides (I only want to know it to tell the correct thing to others who ask me)?14:57
pittitkamppeter: feature request> there is a script which automates this; I'll show you next time14:58
pittitkamppeter: I'm not sure; I guess if you can upload a package, you can rebuild it now14:58
tkamppeterpitti, HPLIP is now successfully built for 5 architectures (in the queue for the 2 missing ones). So these 5 are already on the way to the mirrors now?15:04
pittitkamppeter: yes, in one or two hours (depending on whether they finished building more than 3 minutes ago)15:05
tkamppeterpitti, in former times I have seen a lot of "give-back" messages here on the IRC. Was this the retrying of a build when the first build went wrong?15:06
pittitkamppeter: exactly15:06
pittitkamppeter: "give back" is the term for historical reasons (it's still called like that in Debian)15:06
pittiseb128, pedro_, bdmurray: can anyone of you play a bit with an NTFS volume to verify bug 229000?15:07

tkamppeterpitti, then all except amd64 will make it in one hour and amd64 perhaps only in two hours.15:07
tkamppeterpitti, what means if the "successfully built" for an arch switches from ACCEPTED to DONE?15:09
pittitkamppeter: "ACCEPTED" is the queue which holds built packages; the next publisher run (at :03 hourly) picks up those and puts them into the actual archive15:10
seb128pitti: just playing on a ntfs partition and looking if everything works correctly?15:10
seb128pitti: there is no TESTCASE on the bug15:10
pittitkamppeter: when that happens (aronud :05 hourly) it will get to DONE15:10
pittiseb128: no, reproducing the actual bug is really hard15:11
pittiseb128: I described my own testing in the bug (test suite, some operations in nautilus, etc.)15:11
tkamppeterpitti, thanks.15:11
tkamppeterpitti, can I also build Debian or Ubuntu packages with a .orig.tar.bz2 instead of a .orig.tar.gz file?15:18
pittitkamppeter: that feature is in hardy; so it depends on whether soyuz is running on hardy now; cprov?15:19
cprovpitti: we haven't backported it to edgy. Let me check it again.15:22
tkamppeterpitti, can you have a look at CUPS bug 2814?15:22

tkamppeterpitti, one minute this was not the right one.15:23
tkamppeterpitti, it was the right one.15:23
cprovpitti: confirmed, it's not there. Please file a bug so it can be done at some point in before LP 2.0.15:25
pittitkamppeter: ^15:25
seb128pitti: ok, I didn't try the testsuite thing you mentionned but normal usage (copies, move, renaming, deleting, mount, unmounting, browsing the drive, dnd, etc) works correctly, I've added a comment to the bug15:25
* pitti hugs seb128, thanks15:26
* seb128 hugs pitti15:26
tkamppeterpitti, it is about some enhancements to CUPS to really support the custom options which Mike has introduced in CUPS 1.2 (string, password, numeric, ...) but they got never really used. Currently, I am on the way to get them advertized to the manufacturers and supported by the Common Printing Dialog.15:26
asacpitti: ok, lets feed this to the masses :/15:27
pittiasac: rumble!!!15:28
tkamppeterpitti, Lars Uebernickel (developer of foomatic-rip 4.0 and now GSoC student for the CPDAPI DBUS interface for the Common Printing Dialog has written two CUPS patches for these options.15:28
ograasac, food ?15:29
tkamppeterOne is for a special PPD keyword to restrict the allowed characters in string options, the other is about supporting the options in the CUPS web interface-15:29
ograyummy15:29
asacpitti: should i set to verification-done?15:29
pittiasac: please do, and describe the amount and quality of feedback you got15:29

pittitkamppeter: I don't want to permanently carry large patches which are rejected upstream; we've been through this :/15:33
tkamppeterpitti, so I leave them out as long as Mike does not accept them. If Mike turns away from the custom options I make them my baby with system-config-printer and the Common Printing Dialog. Perhaps Mike will return to them when I have made them common practise. Support from inside CUPS is a nice plus but not required.15:35
asacpitti: commented.15:35
pittitkamppeter: ok, thanks15:35
pittitkamppeter: please file the orig.tar.bz2 thing as a bug against soyuz15:37
tkamppeterIn s-c-p and CPD I am upstream and I can publish specs on OpenPrinting, so no support from Mike Sweet required.15:40

pittikees: 104+ubuntu1 will work, yes17:40
keespitti: heh.  yeah, we've got a small correction that is unACKd upstream17:40
keesthey call /usr/bin/editor instead of /usr/bin/sensible-editor17:41
keesand since kirkland is making changes to sensible-editor, this got examined at the same time.  :)17:41
pittikees: sorry for the weird version number in the first place; but it was the least evil-looking way to bump the number to something non-ubuntuish17:42
keesyeah, I think it's the right solution; I'd just never hit this corner-case before.  :)17:42
keesmvo: are the changes to apt-listchanges for "dapper->hardy" still needed?17:43
keesmvo: I'm going to assume "no", please let me know if I should re-add them.  I'm requesting a sync for it since the other changes (security) are already upstream.17:43

Mirvsince the language packs copying to -updates is not immediate but takes time, there might be a corner case situation right now that updating now results in eg. firefox failing because the firefox translations move and some packages updateable while some not18:23
Mirvat least I was able to update my laptop so that Firefox gives some error on launch at the moment, though starts nevertheless18:23
ion_I had to disable the Finnish language pack in my father’s Firefox in 8.04 because some functionality didn’t work.18:25
Mirvion_: well the printing problem is known and fixed now in the new packs18:25
Mirvion_: also it's a matter of changing one "%" in the jar package18:26
