| kees | Keybuk: the compiler part doesn't seem to mind, but the testsuite complains in parts | 00:02 |
| kees | slangasek: gcc-4.3 wc -l on rules* is 10090. mpich is just 292 :) | 00:03 |
| slangasek | oh, well, there's that | 00:04 |
| slangasek | though maybe it wasn't mpich, maybe it was some package that build-deps on mpich | 00:04 |
| slangasek | hdf5, maybe | 00:05 |
| pwnguin | kees: what about gcc-avr? surely cross compilation is more confusing | 00:53 |
| slangasek | I think gcc-avr inherits all of its specialness from the gcc rules | 00:54 |
| kees | pwnguin: gcc does ppc cross compiles too. :) but yeah, I probably shouldn't try to nominate "2nd most confusing" I bet there are tons | 00:54 |

| asac | pitti: did you do tzdata update? | 09:05 |
| pitti | asac: yes, why? | 09:05 |
| asac | pitti: http://paste.ubuntu.com/18981/ | 09:05 |
| pwnguin | heh | 09:06 |
| asac | pitti: [reed] got his java removed because of it :) | 09:06 |
| [reed] | I didn't use java anyway ;) | 09:06 |
| pwnguin | why = ? | 09:06 |
| pitti | asac, [reed]: seems you don't have hardy-updates for universe? | 09:06 |
| pitti | Package: tzdata-java | 09:07 |
| asac | pitti: he says that he has no -proposed at all | 09:07 |
| pitti | Version: 2008c-1ubuntu0.8.04 | 09:07 |
| pitti | Depends: tzdata (= 2008c-1ubuntu0.8.04) | 09:07 |
| asac | was tzdata-java updated in -proposed? | 09:07 |
| pitti | asac: right, for hardy it's in -updates already | 09:07 |
| [reed] | root@jarodplus:~# cat /etc/apt/sources.list | grep hardy-updates | 09:07 |
| [reed] | deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ hardy-updates main restricted | 09:07 |
| [reed] | deb-src http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ hardy-updates main restricted #Added by software-properties | 09:07 |
| [reed] | deb http://people.ubuntu.com/~ubuntu-archive/ddebs hardy-updates main universe | 09:07 |
| pitti | yes, it was | 09:07 |
| pitti | [reed]: right, no hardy-updates for universe | 09:07 |
| asac | ok then its just a transitional thing? | 09:07 |
| pitti | asac: no, it's not | 09:07 |
| asac | okay ;) | 09:07 |
| asac | i see | 09:07 |
| pitti | asac: this will happen very commonly with sources which build binaries for both main and universe | 09:08 |
| pwnguin | so they DO exist | 09:08 |
| pitti | yes, in hardy-updates | 09:08 |
| persia | Is there a way to reduce the chance of this happening? | 09:08 |
| pwnguin | (packages that build universe and main) | 09:08 |
| pitti | well, we could add some sanity checks to update-manager perhaps | 09:09 |
| persia | pwnguin: Lots of them. Source is in main, but some of the binaries aren't. | 09:09 |
| pitti | but either way, update-manager *removing* packages is a bug on its own | 09:09 |
| asac | [reed]: you appear to not have universe at all in your sources.list | 09:09 |
| pitti | mvo: ^ it still does that? | 09:09 |
| pitti | asac: (NB that he just grepped for hardy-updates, not hardy itself) | 09:09 |
| persia | pitti: fixing update-manager is a way to reduce the impact, but is it not possible to synchronise the -updates push for all binaries in a single source? | 09:09 |
| pitti | persia: that's already done | 09:10 |
| [reed] | asac: http://paste.ubuntu.com/18984/ | 09:10 |
| persia | Also, update-manager will still remove packages in certain circumstances, where there's no declared dependency. | 09:10 |
| pitti | persia: but if someone has hardy-updates/main in their sources.list, but not hardy-updates/universe, that won't help him | 09:10 |
| persia | pitti: I see. It's a matter of sources.list, rather than the state of the archive. | 09:10 |
| pwnguin | people.ubuntu.com? | 09:11 |
| [reed] | dbgsym packages | 09:11 |
| [reed] | for generating proper, complete stacks in gdb | 09:12 |
| pwnguin | sure | 09:12 |
| asac | [reed]: you dont have hardy-updates at all in your sources.list | 09:12 |
| [reed] | asac: well, I haven't touched this file in a long time | 09:12 |
| asac | [reed]: err, same parse error on my side :) | 09:12 |
| persia | asac: "| grep universe" | 09:12 |
| asac | yeah | 09:12 |
| pwnguin | unless theres a problem with that, i'd just well paste the whole thing | 09:13 |
| persia | [reed]: You'll want to add universe to your hardy-updates line. | 09:13 |
| [reed] | pasting entire file now | 09:13 |
| asac | [reed]: ++ | 09:13 |
| [reed] | http://paste.ubuntu.com/18987/ | 09:13 |
| [reed] | guess I could remove the Canonical partner archive... added it for parallels | 09:14 |
| [reed] | hmm | 09:14 |
| persia | That's not the issue. You need to mirror lines 6&7 after line 16. | 09:14 |
| [reed] | I know... I'm thinking out loud | 09:15 |
| [reed] | :) | 09:15 |
| asac | mvo: ^^ for the above (20 lines) ... does apturl add the proper section for -updates as well? | 09:15 |
| pwnguin | proper care and maintaince of source.list is vital for smooth operation ^_^ | 09:16 |
| mvo | asac: generally it does if universe was enabled at the time when apturl was run | 09:17 |
| [reed] | pwnguin: and you expect some average user that doesn't know Linux at all to know that? ;) (I'm not an average user by any means, but just thinking of all those users who don't understand this stuff) | 09:17 |
| asac | [reed]: i think pwnguin tried to be sarcastic :) | 09:18 |
| pwnguin | most "average users" should the software sources tool. which i expect works, but nobody i know uses it | 09:18 |
| asac | mvo: you mean "... when -updates was enabled when running apturl" ? | 09:19 |
| asac | mvo: just wonder if he ended up in this state when installing icedtea plugin through apturl | 09:20 |
| mvo | asac: I haven't seen the apturl line, but if e.g. the sources.list has "hardy universe" and apturl is run with "apturl apt:foo?section=universe" it will not add anything because universe is enabled already. if it is not in the file, then it will add it and also add -updates | 09:21 |
| mvo | hm | 09:22 |
| asac | mvo: hmm. ok, worth a bug? e.g. add universe to -updates if hardy-updates line exists already? | 09:22 |
| asac | e.g. if user has not opted out of -updates | 09:22 |
| mvo | feel free, I'm not sure if we can catch all corner cases, but we can try. was the content of the pastebin manully edited? or only through tools like software-properties/apturl etc | 09:24 |
| mvo | ? | 09:24 |
| Mirv | asac: yep, no issue | 09:25 |
| asac | mvo: at least the dbgsym lines were added manually i guess | 09:25 |
| asac | [reed]: did you do any other manual operations on your sources.list? | 09:25 |
| [reed] | hmm, probably uncommented stuff over the years | 09:26 |
| [reed] | back when I first installed edgy | 09:26 |
| [reed] | or dapper? | 09:26 |
| [reed] | can't remember | 09:26 |
| [reed] | hmm, update manager is offering me more updates now | 09:27 |
| [reed] | :) | 09:27 |
| [reed] | 33 more updates | 09:27 |
| [reed] | and half of these are Firefox-related | 09:27 |
| [reed] | 19 / 33 updates are Firefox related, hah | 09:28 |
| [reed] | er, 20 of 33. | 09:30 |

| pecisk | hi people, does FF3 respect /etc/alternatives/mozilla-flashplugin? I have set it to swfdec and removed pluginreg.dat from profile folder but it still gets recreated with Adobe Flash as default swf player, as about:plugins shows | 10:34 |
| pecisk | another question is - is this a bug or expected behaviour? | 10:35 |
| MacSlow | how do I force the creation of a -dbg package? | 10:40 |
| pitti | MacSlow: that needs packaging changes | 10:40 |
| gnomefreak | pecisk: it uses xulrunner-plugins | 10:40 |
| pitti | MacSlow: however, you can automatically create those -dbgsym packages | 10:40 |
| pitti | MacSlow: by installing pkg-create-dbgsym and just building the source package once | 10:40 |
| MacSlow | pitti, anything I need to pass to dpkg-buildpackage? | 10:40 |
| pitti | MacSlow: no, it's fully automagic | 10:40 |
| gnomefreak | pecisk: the exact name is off but look for something like that using 1.9 | 10:40 |
| pitti | MacSlow: if you need them for an existing ubuntu package, they shuold be on http://ddebs.ubuntu.com | 10:41 |
| MacSlow | pitti, no I want to create it for libgksu I'm testing here locally with a patch of my own | 10:41 |
| pecisk | gnomefreak: ahhhh so, I see. Well, thanks | 10:41 |
| pitti | MacSlow: ah, then a local build will be fine, yes | 10:41 |

| Keybuk | pitti: sure | 12:05 |
| Riddell | heno: what about reportbug? | 12:06 |
| Riddell | currently it e-mails ubuntu-users, which seems pointless | 12:06 |
| pitti | Keybuk: I wrote an initial braindump now, but I left a big TODO item there, about how to plumb together gdm, that guest session binary, and PAM | 12:07 |
| pitti | Keybuk: so I'd like to pick your brain about PAM | 12:07 |
| pitti | Keybuk: maybe we can deal with it on tomorrow's phone call? | 12:07 |
| heno | Riddell: agreed. It gives an incorrect impression that the issue will be tracked | 12:09 |
| Keybuk | pitti: sure | 12:09 |
| heno | Riddell: I would advocate removing that too | 12:09 |
| pitti | Keybuk: ok, thanks | 12:10 |
| siretart | Riddell: my opinon is stated in the bug. I find the tool useful and therefore would vote to keep it | 12:12 |
| siretart | Riddell: it might have bugs and be preferable adapted to offer the user a choice to report a bug either to debian or launchpad, but I wouldn't consider that making the package unreleasable | 12:13 |
| siretart | Riddell: same applies to reportbug | 12:13 |
| siretart | in the end, both packages are in universe for a reason | 12:14 |
| === thekorn_ is now known as thekor | ||
| === thekor is now known as thekorn | ||
| ScottK | Riddell: At UDS, James Westby said he'd fix it. | 12:25 |
| ScottK | IIRC it's reportbug that mails ubuntu-users. Reportbug-ng will send stuff to Debian. | 12:26 |
| ScottK | Reportbug should definitely NOT be removed. It's quite useful for reporting bugs to Debian when that's appropriate. | 12:26 |
| ScottK | Reportbug-ng just got removed from Testing for being not sufficiently useful, so removing it for now wouldn't be awful. | 12:27 |
| ScottK | Riddell:^^^ | 12:27 |
| Riddell | siretart: how is reportbug useful for debian reporting when it reports to ubuntu-users? | 12:35 |
| heno | We should at least coordinate the use of reportbug (if configured to send to Debian) though. | 12:35 |
| sistpoty|work | Riddell: it has a -B switch to choose debian's BTS | 12:36 |
| heno | Don Armstrong (Debian BTS guy) felt that even bugs in unmodified packages were not self-evidently Debian issues because we run them in an Ubuntu environment with our own configurations | 12:37 |
| heno | so the bugs reported from us should at least be tagged clearly as such (are they?) | 12:38 |
| siretart | Riddell: by using it with 'reportbug -Bdebian' - at least that's the only way I use it. | 12:38 |
| heno | siretart: is it obvious on the Debian end that the bug is from Ubuntu? | 12:39 |
| siretart | heno: sort of, it is at the end of the message if the user didn't delete that from the template. | 12:40 |
| siretart | heno: the more challenging problem is that most ubuntu users are not aware what happens to their message, read: the have no idea where the report goes to and who is in charge dealing with it. | 12:41 |
| sistpoty|work | siretart: by default it actually gets stuck at fiordland anyways ;) | 12:41 |
| heno | ok, so we would need to modify reportbug to provide that info | 12:42 |
| siretart | sistpoty|work: that's why I configured it in my user config to use /usr/bin/sendmail. | 12:42 |
| siretart | heno: even better: make it report to launchpad. | 12:42 |
| sistpoty|work | siretart: heh | 12:43 |
| heno | what features does it have that apport doesn't? | 12:43 |
| heno | as in "apport-cli -f -p PACKAGE" | 12:44 |
| siretart | heno: I don't see how apport and reportbug(-ng) relate. | 12:44 |
| \sh | siretart: I thought reportbug-ng is past tense for lenny? | 12:45 |
| siretart | \sh: I expect it to be fixed in time | 12:45 |
| \sh | siretart: let's hope :) | 12:46 |
| siretart | heno: reportbug e.g. support package specific hooks for collecting extra data. it respects the Bugs: field of the package, it does not require authentication -- there are so many fundamental differences that I wouldn't even consider comapring it to apport | 12:46 |
| heno | siretart: they both collect info to help you file a better bug. Apport supports package hooks as well https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Apport | 12:49 |
| heno | they seem to me to have some overlap :) | 12:50 |
| heno | though I'm sure there are major differences too | 12:50 |
| siretart | heno: which are not the same hooks we already have in debian. so we need to reimplement all those nice hooks in debian pacakge again for ubuntu :/ | 12:51 |
| siretart | heno: but I think the most important point for this discussion here is: apport cannot be used to report bugs to debian. that's why I stick to reportbug and reportbug-ng | 12:52 |
| heno | and I think the question is whether we as Ubuntu should ship a package that does that (or perhaps that should be installed directlt from debian for those who want it) IMO the answer will depend on debian's view on getting bugs from us | 12:54 |
| heno | (to the extent there is a "debian's view") | 12:54 |
| sistpoty|work | heno: given that reportbug itself doesn't by default report anything to debian, unless you fiddle with command line switches and configuration, I guess it's the risk of bugs reported to the wrong BTS is minimal | 12:56 |

| * asac hugs pitti | 13:03 | |
| heno | siretart: ok, I don't have strong feelings about it; if it has a use case and is otherwise used carefully, and isn't causing annoyance in debian then I'm not worried | 13:04 |
| ScottK | The bigger problem is reportbug-ng that does report bugs to debian by default even though it's supposed to know better. | 13:12 |

| _MMA_ | ogra: Hello sir. | 13:59 |
| ogra | _MMA_, hey, i was wondering what you think about the idea to pull in ubuntoon into edubuntu in intrepid :) | 14:00 |
| ogra | i see it isnt in the archive yet | 14:00 |
| _MMA_ | ogra: Sure. I had meant to talk to you in Prague about it. Lemmie give it a update this week (most likely tomorrow) and Ill ping you when done. Sound cool? | 14:01 |
| ogra | _MMA_, absolutely, no hurry artwork deadline is still far out (and i ted to ignore it slightly in edubuntu anyway :) ) | 14:02 |
| ogra | *tend | 14:02 |
| _MMA_ | ogra: Cool. | 14:02 |
| lool | pitti: Cool, thanks | 14:05 |
| lool | pitti: Could you check gcc-defaults/lpia too? | 14:06 |
| lool | It seems to be there for amd64 and i386 | 14:07 |
| pitti | gcj | 4:4.2.3-1ubuntu6 | hardy-updates | amd64, hppa, i386, ia64, lpia, powerpc, sparc | 14:07 |

| lool | pitti: How do you do that madison on all arches? | 14:07 |
| lool | or dak ls :) | 14:07 |
| pitti | lool: that's madison-lite on drescher | 14:08 |
| pitti | which uses the actual archive's Packages.gz | 14:08 |
| StevenK | Which rmadision hooks into | 14:08 |
| * lool doesn't have drescher access unfortunately | 14:08 | |
| pitti | rmadison does not have ports | 14:08 |
| StevenK | lool: ^ | 14:08 |
| StevenK | Oh | 14:08 |
| StevenK | Pity | 14:08 |
| lool | I'm using rmadison a lot, I wish there would be a ports' cgi too | 14:08 |
| lool | pitti: Aha, my script thought gcc was missing because I didn't know how to retrieve the Source version of a binary package when it's different from the source, so I was looking at any binary from this source with this version; there was none for gcc-defaults, but I now have an example to get the source version of a binar | 14:10 |
| lool | y | 14:11 |
| lool | pitti: (Source: gcc-defaults (1.62ubuntu6)) | 14:11 |
| lool | I'll update my script now that I have proper sample data | 14:11 |
| lool | Hmm I see rmadison has a flag to filter which architecture to output; I guess we could simply add support for it in the ubuntu madison cgi | 14:13 |
| pitti | asac: oh, ffox rc2 changes abi again? I. e. everything needs a rebuild again? | 14:15 |
| asac | pitti: who said that? | 14:17 |
| pitti | asac: you created tasks for all of the reverse dependencies for the "RC2 update" bug | 14:18 |
| asac | pitti: those are investigation bugs. most are already invalid | 14:18 |
| pitti | oh, ok | 14:18 |
| asac | pitti: e.g. check for regressions (besides ABI/API which should be ok) | 14:18 |
| asac | pitti: most likely just firefox-3.0 and xulrunner-1.9 ... and even those were uploaded with lax dependencies | 14:19 |

| geser | kirkland: hi, are you aware that select-editor doesn't write ~/.selected_editor if only one exists and sensible-editor fails to source that file and fails | 14:34 |
| === broonie_ is now known as broonie | ||
| superm1 | pitti, after you get some reports on it, perhaps would you get it into hardy-backports for wider adoption? | 14:59 |
| pitti | superm1: hm, maybe | 15:03 |
| pitti | I didn't actually plan to upload it into intrepid, though | 15:03 |
| pitti | since that would mean I officially have to maintain it for very long :) | 15:04 |
| kirkland | geser: please clarify.... | 15:04 |
| superm1 | ah right :) | 15:04 |
| geser | kirkland: when I try to call sensible-editor in my intrepid chroot I get: .: 17: Can't open /home/michael/.selected_editor | 15:05 |
| pitti | superm1: once jockey gets supoprt for an online driver db, I'd rather link it in the db and keep the driver in a ppa | 15:05 |
| kirkland | geser: does /home/michael exist? | 15:06 |
| geser | kirkland: sure | 15:06 |
| geser | kirkland: this only happens when VISUAL and EDITOR are unset | 15:06 |
| kirkland | geser: right, that's the case where select-editor should kick in | 15:07 |
| kirkland | geser: let me understand why it can't write that file, though | 15:07 |
| kirkland | geser: what user is executing it? | 15:07 |
| kirkland | geser: and would that user not have write access to /home/michael/.selected_editor ? | 15:07 |
| geser | kirkland: looking at the code of select-editor it calls "update-alternatives --list editor | wc -l" which gives 1 for me and skips the next if where that file is created | 15:08 |
| kirkland | geser: ah, good catch | 15:08 |

| lool | MacSlow: Hey, cairo-clock Recommends compiz: is this really needed? | 16:46 |
| Riddell | tkamppeter: are you able to merge cups-pdf sometime? I'm down for it as the last uploader but I think you are a better person to merge it with Debian | 16:48 |
| === greeneggsnospam is now known as jsgotangco | ||
| tkamppeter | Riddell, OK, I can do so. | 17:02 |
| MacSlow | lool, well a compositor... that can be either compiz or metacity (with an enabled compositor) | 17:05 |
| lool | MacSlow: It seems that even without compositor, it will work, just wont be transparent, right? | 17:06 |
| MacSlow | lool, but since one cannot put "metacity (with enabled compositor)" in the control file I chose compiz | 17:06 |
| lool | MacSlow: We're pulling cairo-clock in UME now, I'd rather not pull compiz though; perhaps this should simply be covered in the doc -- compiz is the default in Ubuntu anyway, no? | 17:06 |
| MacSlow | lool, no I intercept that and present the user an error-message. | 17:06 |
| lool | Oh, so it's handled at runtime already | 17:07 |
| lool | Not sure we need to have a dep then | 17:07 |
| MacSlow | lool, of course... that's why I used "recommends" and not "depends" | 17:07 |
| lool | agoliveira told me it works on his laptop with compositing enabled and not running compiz | 17:07 |
| MacSlow | lool, but I thought that's what the field "recommends" was meant for | 17:07 |
| Riddell | tkamppeter: thanks | 17:07 |
| lool | MacSlow: As you were saying, it's quite an imprecise way of saying "anything providing compositing"; we could use virtual packages for this, but it would be a bit heavy | 17:08 |
| lool | MacSlow: I think in your case you want a Depends on a compositor | 17:08 |
| lool | MacSlow: But as there's no virtual provide for this, and it's per user anyway -- or even per session -- I'm not sure you want to reflect in the dependencies | 17:09 |
| MacSlow | lool, gee... I won't be the one introducing stuff like that :) I'm not enough of a MOTU to forsee all the implication such a suggestion could have. | 17:09 |
| ogra | just move Recommends: compiz to Suggests: compiz | 17:10 |
| lool | Yes, that's what I wanted to offer | 17:10 |
| lool | MacSlow: Would you mind if I downgraded to suggests in intrepid? | 17:10 |
| lool | Or removed the dep entirely, perhaps adding a README in the package? | 17:10 |
| ogra | that way even openbox users with xcompmgr can use it without cluttering their disk wih compiz | 17:11 |
| MacSlow | lool, np | 17:11 |
| ogra | i think a suggests is fine ... i'd make it even Suggests: compiz | xcompmgr | 17:11 |
| MacSlow | lool, btw... xcompmgr works too with cairo-clock... at least last time (some months ago) I tested it | 17:12 |
| lool | MacSlow: Ack; thanks for discussion | 17:14 |
| MacSlow | lool, you're welcome | 17:15 |

| ogra | heh | 17:17 |
| Hobbsee | lool: but we are supposed to have an alpha release this week, so having stuff installable is probably a reasonable expectation? | 17:18 |
| Hobbsee | at least, that's what the schedule says | 17:18 |

| laga | pitti: good job on the v4l-dvb package. i've been meaning to do that for mythbuntu for a long time | 17:40 |
| mkrufky | i noticed that | 17:46 |
| mkrufky | wont it break out of tree drivers? | 17:46 |
| laga | in what way? | 17:47 |
| mkrufky | err... it _will_ break out of tree v4l/dvb drivers | 17:47 |
| mkrufky | replacing videodev by a new videodev, where modules in l-u-m depend on the kernel provided videodev | 17:47 |
| mkrufky | i have a fix for that, actually :-) | 17:47 |
| mkrufky | but its not fully backwards compatable | 17:47 |
| laga | yeah, i was just looking at l-u-m | 17:48 |
| laga | it'd be nice if l-u-m also used dkms. | 17:48 |
| mkrufky | yeah, anty media driver in l-u-m would get broken | 17:48 |
| mkrufky | if he changed his dkms build to -not- replace videodev, that would do it...... although it would only go back so many kernel versions | 17:48 |
| mkrufky | ...same applies to dvb-core, if there are any out of tree dvb devices in l-u-m | 17:50 |
| laga | mkrufky: do you know the state of the multiproto api? | 17:50 |
| mkrufky | it's not in kernel | 17:51 |
| mkrufky | and never will be | 17:51 |
| mkrufky | the author chose to fork and refuses any merge attempts | 17:51 |
| mkrufky | dont bother supporting it | 17:51 |
| mario_limonciell | laga, dkms shouldn't necessarily be used for everything in lum, but this model for updated drivers and binary drivers only is a good idea. | 17:52 |
| laga | it's a bit hard not to support it (in the future) as it's the only way to use DVB-S2. | 17:52 |
| laga | AFAIK | 17:52 |
| laga | mario_limonciell: well, l-u-m still should provide binaries, of course, but it'd also be nice if it didn't break if someone compiles their own kernel. | 17:53 |
| laga | granted, it's easy to rebuild. | 17:53 |
| mario_limonciell | the problem with putting dkms on too much stuff is that you end up having to have a build chain to build it when it needs to be used | 17:54 |
| mario_limonciell | and then you add extra delay to postinst when you build stuff | 17:54 |
| mario_limonciell | or during the next boot if you build it there | 17:54 |
| laga | thats why we have prebuilt modules for people who use the stock kernel. :) | 17:56 |
| laga | anyways, that discussion is probably fruitless. :) | 17:56 |
| mkrufky | laga: im only saying that userspace trying to support the multiproto api might be a wasted effort when the developer is unwilling to merge, and another developer is working on a better solution | 18:02 |
| laga | mkrufky: oh? got a keyword for me to throw at google? | 18:03 |
| mkrufky | mario_limonciell: i been trying to find you | 18:03 |
| mkrufky | change your nick much? | 18:03 |
| mkrufky | no, laga | 18:03 |
| mkrufky | all i can say is that we wont be held up by developers that dont play nice | 18:04 |
| mkrufky | at least, not forever | 18:04 |
| laga | mkrufky: so i guess you won't have an ETA either (for me). i'm moving soon and i'll have a dish there ;) | 18:04 |
| mkrufky | i dont involve myself with dvb-s at all -- ur asking the wrong guy | 18:05 |
| mkrufky | im just saying not to waste your time writing userspace software for a dead api | 18:05 |
| laga | mkrufky: alright, thanks! | 18:05 |
| mkrufky | then again, there's no telling when a real api will come | 18:05 |
| mkrufky | others are already working on temporary solutions | 18:06 |
