| leleobhz | can i change the password of revu? | 00:06 |
|---|---|---|
| sistpoty | no | 00:06 |
| leleobhz | hmmm | 00:07 |
| leleobhz | when i make my packages i must to use current or unstable version (this case, hardy+1) | 00:07 |
| sistpoty | yes, or build and test them in a chroot | 00:08 |
| leleobhz | sistpoty: ok, but i must use stable (hardy) or hardy+1 on this case | 00:08 |
| ScottK | Laney: If you can offer a good technical rationale, it should be fine. | 00:08 |
| wgrant | leleobhz: You must build the package in an Intrepid environment. | 00:09 |
| sistpoty | leleobhz: well, you'll need to build the packages for intrepid (e.g. in an intrepid pbuilder, or in a clean intrepid chroot) | 00:09 |
| wgrant | Whether chroot or real. | 00:09 |
| leleobhz | ok | 00:10 |
| leleobhz | i have a great cross compile script suite | 00:11 |
| leleobhz | i use to make backports too | 00:11 |
| leleobhz | so 0ubuntu3 for hardy turns 0ubuntu4 for intrepid? | 00:12 |
| jml | sistpoty: hello. are you still around? | 00:14 |
| sistpoty | jml: for a few minutes, yes | 00:14 |
| leleobhz | Distribution is intrepid. | 00:14 |
| leleobhz | Building the build environment | 00:14 |
| leleobhz | hoho, nice ;] | 00:14 |
| leleobhz | sistpoty: what i do with package version? | 00:14 |
| sistpoty | leleobhz: if the package is not yet in ubuntu, start with <upstream-version>-0ubuntu1. | 00:15 |
| jml | sistpoty: I'm on the Launchpad codehosting team. We've finally got around to looking at your branch | 00:15 |
| leleobhz | sistpoty: its on revu | 00:15 |
| leleobhz | sistpoty: on revu has for hardy | 00:15 |
| sistpoty | leleobhz: then there's no need to increase the version number, as long as it's not yet in the archive | 00:15 |
| sistpoty | jml: excellent, thanks! | 00:16 |
| jml | sistpoty: can you confirm that it works? | 00:16 |
| leleobhz | sistpoty: so return to 0ubuntu1? | 00:16 |
| leleobhz | and put target to intrepid? | 00:16 |
| sistpoty | jml: I've seen that RainCT has committed again, so I assume it works :) | 00:16 |
| jml | sistpoty: ok. cool. | 00:16 |
| sistpoty | leleobhz: yes | 00:16 |

| norsetto | twruottu: Wed. June 11, 2008 - REVU Day! | 16:18 |
| luisbg | ScottK, done :) | 16:19 |
| james_w | norsetto: thanks! | 16:19 |
| twruottu | I'm looking after second sponsor for my package mi2svg. I have uploaded the package to REVU and fixed all issues that have been brought up. See http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?package=mi2svg | 16:19 |

| james_w | luisbg: "apt-cache dotty" may be something like you want. | 16:20 |
| norsetto | cyberix2: Standards-Version is 3.8.0 now :-( | 16:20 |
| cyberix2 | damn | 16:21 |
| cyberix2 | Then I have to get into my car and start driving home wards | 16:21 |
| cyberix2 | :-D | 16:21 |
| luisbg | james_w, thanks :) | 16:22 |
| norsetto | cyberix2: just check if you have to make any changes in /usr/share/doc/debian-policy/upgrading-checklist.txt.gz | 16:22 |
| cyberix2 | As I keep my PGP key in my safe or some other secret secure place instead of a USB stick. | 16:22 |
| james_w | luisbg: also "apt-cache --recurse depends" | 16:22 |
| norsetto | cyberix2: take your time, I will be around for another 7 hrs or so | 16:23 |
| cyberix2 | norsetto: Can I find that document online somewhere? | 16:23 |
| luisbg | james_w, awesome! | 16:23 |
| norsetto | cyberix2: its in the debian-policy package which is in debian/ubuntu repos | 16:24 |
| cyberix2 | norsetto: K | 16:24 |
| cyberix2 | norsetto: Thanks | 16:24 |
| norsetto | cyberix2: de nada, I'll check to see if there is some more and will let you have any comment anyhow | 16:25 |
| norsetto | cyberix2: looking at the package I doubt you will have to make any changes though | 16:27 |
| cyberix2 | norsetto: Thanks a lot. I'll start driving. Please post any further observations to REVU so I can fix them all once I get home. I'll get back to you later. | 16:27 |
| cyberix2 | ok? | 16:27 |
| norsetto | cyberix2: sure thing | 16:28 |
| cyberix2 | See you later, bye | 16:28 |

| * sistpoty|work heads home | 17:18 | |
| sistpoty|work | cya | 17:18 |
| mathiaz | Koon: shoot | 17:18 |
| mathiaz | Koon: was the list I sent you usefull ? | 17:18 |
| Koon | mathiaz: yes, very useful. | 17:18 |
| Koon | mathiaz: the "updated" merges have to be worked on, too, I suppose, not only outstabding ones | 17:19 |
| mathiaz | Koon: yes - although we try to focus first on the outstanding ones | 17:20 |
| Koon | mathiaz: first question is about config.{sub,guess}. | 17:20 |
| mathiaz | Koon: we try to merge each package at least *once* during each cycle | 17:20 |
| Koon | mathiaz: on the libcgi merge, they conflict... | 17:20 |
| Koon | mathiaz: should I try to merge them, take the Debian one... or just ignore them | 17:21 |
| mathiaz | Koon: most of the time these files are regenerated during build time | 17:21 |
| Koon | mathiaz: yes, that's why I ask ;) | 17:21 |
| mathiaz | Koon: so you don't really care about it | 17:21 |
| Koon | ok, I can let the automerge resolve the conflicts in them, but I don't talk about them in "Remaining chnages" | 17:22 |
| mathiaz | Koon: the best ressource I've found about this is the autotools-dev package | 17:22 |
| Koon | mathiaz: second question is about courier-authlib merge. | 17:22 |
| mathiaz | Koon: /usr/share/doc/autotools-dev/ | 17:23 |
| Koon | if you look at the changelog, the "Remaining changes" are very simple. | 17:23 |
| mathiaz | Koon: the README.Debian.gz outlines what the problems are | 17:23 |
| Koon | but if you look at the base -> ubuntu patch, it's just enormous. | 17:23 |
| Koon | 226 files, 4M diff | 17:24 |
| mathiaz | Koon: which patch are you looking at ? | 17:25 |
| Koon | courier-authlib_0.60.1-1ubuntu2.patch | 17:25 |
| Koon | the base-> debian patch is so simple (and the merge process did produce a viable tarball) that I could just report the last changelog and be done with it... but that troubles me | 17:26 |
| bddebian | Heya folks | 17:26 |
| mathiaz | Koon: right - it seems that the ubuntu version has some .deps/ dependencies in it | 17:27 |
| mathiaz | Koon: probably that the clean target doesn't work properly | 17:27 |
| mathiaz | Koon: so the source package was build with things that were left from a previous binary build | 17:28 |
| Koon | hmmkay. | 17:28 |
| geser | Hi bddebian | 17:29 |
| mathiaz | Koon: looking at the lsdiff, there are lots of files in .deps/ | 17:29 |
| Koon | but there are lots of things outside .deps too. Maybe the result of the same problem | 17:29 |
| mathiaz | Koon: probably related - most of the file are files autogenerated by the autoconfigure tools | 17:29 |
| mathiaz | Koon: Makefile, config.status, config.h, etc... | 17:30 |
| Koon | mathiaz: Ok, I will look into it from that angle | 17:30 |
| mathiaz | Koon: yeah - read up on the autotools-dev package so that you start to grasp the issue with it | 17:31 |
| Koon | mathiaz: ok then, do you mind if I handle the icecast2 merge (will be a sync request, more than probably) | 17:31 |
| mathiaz | Koon: then you can look into the patch, using filterdiff to remove the files that are not necessary | 17:31 |
| mathiaz | Koon: np - go ahead please. | 17:31 |
| mathiaz | Koon: did you go through all the list I sent you ? | 17:32 |
| Koon | mathiaz: not all the list. I started a couple of hours ago. | 17:33 |
| mathiaz | Koon: ok - so far did you find the merge difficult ? | 17:33 |
| cyberix | norsetto: back | 17:34 |
| mathiaz | Koon: I ask that because I've tried to pick merges that *seemed* easier than others. | 17:34 |
| cyberix | norsetto: Is that shorter download url form a convention? | 17:34 |
| Koon | mathiaz: no, they were quite simple cases | 17:34 |
| cyberix | norsetto: How did you run lintian? | 17:34 |
| cyberix | norsetto: I could not get that error | 17:35 |
| norsetto | cyberix: did you run it on the binary? | 17:35 |
| bddebian | Heya geser | 17:35 |
| cyberix | norsetto: on the deb-file? | 17:36 |
| cyberix | Also, is there some tool for just validating the man page? | 17:37 |
| cyberix | directly | 17:37 |
| norsetto | cyberix: yes, on the deb or better yet on the binary changes | 17:38 |
| cyberix | I used it on the deb | 17:41 |
| cyberix | But I have no idea what is wrong | 17:41 |
| cyberix | I would need some(one) or tool to tell me more about the problem | 17:42 |
| Laney | cyberix: lintian -i will give you more info | 17:42 |
| mathiaz | Koon: was the documentation I've pointed you to useful ? | 17:44 |
| Koon | mathiaz: yes. Note that the two wikipages are the same, in fact | 17:45 |
| mathiaz | Koon: the content has been merged now ? | 17:46 |
| mathiaz | Koon: I haven't looked at them precisely | 17:46 |
| Koon | mathiaz: apparently. The MOTU one redirects to the other one. | 17:47 |
| mathiaz | Koon: oh - that has been done recently then - good :) | 17:47 |
| norsetto | cyberix: I think its the (c) character | 17:48 |
| cyberix | I realize that | 17:48 |
| cyberix | But there should be nothing wrong with it | 17:48 |
| mathiaz | Koon: I'm planing to publish such lists of easy merges in order to get people started in merging. | 17:48 |
| cyberix | "* New Homepage field for upstream web sites." I already used that field with some earlier packages. I hope I didn't break anything. | 17:49 |
| mathiaz | Koon: that's why I wanted to have your feedback on the level of difficulty I've chosen | 17:49 |
| norsetto | cyberix: well, using nroff your manpage shows this: Copyright © 2005 | 17:49 |
| cyberix | Interresting | 17:51 |
| Koon | mathiaz: I guess packages where you merge from the same upstream version are the easiest | 17:51 |
| cyberix | vim shows it correctly | 17:51 |
| cyberix | So does cat | 17:51 |
| mathiaz | Koon: well - I've opted to compare the changelog actually | 17:52 |
| mathiaz | Koon: looking at the changelog in Ubuntu and Debian | 17:52 |
| Koon | mathiaz: ok | 17:52 |
| mathiaz | Koon: that gives a first idea at the work that may be required. | 17:52 |
| mathiaz | Koon: I'll also add some metrics (such as diffstats and lsdiff) | 17:53 |
| mathiaz | Koon: and the list of conflicts from the potential merge | 17:53 |
| mterry | I want to add a simple patch to a package which doesn't use a patch system right now. I tried adding cdbs's simple-patchsys.mk, but when I try to run cdbs-edit-patch, I get: "target file `clean' has both : and :: entries. Stop." Is there a way to easily add simple-patch without overhauling the various targets already in debian/rules? If not, how do I make the two clean's play nice? | 17:53 |
| cyberix | man pages require you to specify encoding in some way? | 17:54 |
| mathiaz | Koon: all these information should help giving a rough idea about the level of difficulty of a merge | 17:54 |
| cyberix | I don't do that, because I could not find a way to do it. | 17:54 |
| Koon | mathiaz: the doc from autotools-dev is really interesting. thanks for pointing that out | 17:54 |
| james_w | mterry: if the package doesn't use cdbs then you won't be able to use cdbs-simple-patchsys, sorry. | 17:54 |
| mathiaz | Koon: yeah - I've read the README.Debian a couple of times and still haven't grasped all the details in there. | 17:55 |
| persia | mterry: You're better off using dpatch or quilt if you're not using all of CDBS. Of the two, dpatch has better documentation (both externally and in patches), and quilt is more flexible about handling conflicts. | 17:55 |
| persia | james_w: Well, it's possible to use only part of CDBS, but it makes kittens cry... | 17:55 |
| mterry | persia: I'm not trying to solve kitten sadness syndrome here. I just want a patch. :) | 17:57 |
| persia | mterry: OK. Using part of CDBS will make you cry :) | 17:58 |
| mterry | persia: Fair | 17:58 |
| persia | Just use dpatch. There's a nice dpatch.mk you can include, and you can use dpatch-edit-patch to edit the patch. Just remember to add a patch comment to every dpatch. | 17:58 |
| * mterry reads a dpatch howto | 17:59 | |
| cyberix | norsetto: Also man shows the text correctly | 17:59 |
| cyberix | Also I can't get lintian to notice the error anymore | 18:01 |
| cyberix | lintian did complain with the previous upstream version | 18:02 |
| cyberix | norsetto: What options did you pass to lintian? | 18:02 |
| norsetto | cyberix: just use (c) and we get rid of it | 18:06 |
| cyberix | Thats what the japanese people do? :-D | 18:09 |
| cyberix | This might be an error in lintian. | 18:10 |
| cyberix | actually | 18:10 |
| cyberix | I don't get that error | 18:10 |
| cyberix | So there just might be nothing wrong | 18:11 |
| norsetto | cyberix: I'm getting that character when I use man, so there is something definetively wrong | 18:11 |
| cyberix | Interresting | 18:12 |
| === leleobhz is now known as init | ||
| cyberix | so lintian works differently on different systems | 18:12 |
| cyberix | Are you sure you don't have the old version of my package? | 18:12 |
| === init is now known as leleobhz | ||
| cyberix | 0.1.5 | 18:13 |
| cyberix | should be correct | 18:13 |
| norsetto | cyberix: I used your link, so unless you have given the old link ... | 18:13 |
| cyberix | The software itself says 0.1.3, but that is just because the software has not changed since | 18:14 |
| cyberix | Maybe I should change that, just for sake of clarity | 18:15 |
| norsetto | cyberix: and thats the diff wrt the previous version: -Copyright 2005, 2006 Research Institute for the Languages of Finland +Copyright © 2005, 2006 Research Institute for the Languages of Finland | 18:15 |
| cyberix | The copyright version in the old original was broken. | 18:15 |
| cyberix | So I considered removing it just for the package. | 18:16 |
| cyberix | But then I decided to fix it upstream | 18:16 |
| norsetto | cyberix: yes, you should definetively change the version in the script | 18:16 |
| cyberix | I'll do that, but first I want to get the man page thing sorted out. | 18:17 |
| cyberix | Which locale do you use? | 18:17 |
| norsetto | cyberix: en_US.UTF-8 | 18:17 |
| cyberix | so do I | 18:17 |
| cyberix | norsetto: what does "file mi2svg.man" tell you? | 18:18 |
| norsetto | cyberix: ASCII troff or preprocessor input text | 18:19 |
| cyberix | mi2svg.man: UTF-8 Unicode troff or preprocessor input text | 18:19 |
| norsetto | cyberix: I edited it to check with (c) | 18:20 |
| cyberix | Well get the original one | 18:20 |
| cyberix | And make sure lintian still complains about it | 18:21 |
| Kopfgeldjaeger | should i install files within debian/rules or with an install file (mostly data files)? | 18:28 |
| Kopfgeldjaeger | (mostly, but not only) | 18:28 |
| === asac_ is now known as asac | ||
| lukehasnoname | http://xkcd.com/351/ | 18:41 |

| * persia recommends Kopfgeldjaeger install data files with dh_install and debian/install before heading off for several hours | 18:42 | |
| Kopfgeldjaeger | thanks | 18:42 |
| cyberix | norsetto: "man -d mi2svg.man" may tell us why your "man mi2svg" fails to display the character correctly. | 18:46 |
| cyberix | norsetto: It seems that nroff is not supposed to display it correctly. | 18:46 |
