But it had a lot of diff in the tarball. [06:15] good morning folks [06:20] Laney, well i'm going to be afk for a bit, so if you can add an update to bug 262832 or unassign it from yourself if you're not going to be taking care of it, that'd be great. [06:20] Launchpad bug 262832 in mplayer "mplayer needs to be rebuilt for liblame -> libmp3lame transition" [Undecided,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/262832 === persia_ is now known as persia [07:24] hello everybody. http://daniel.holba.ch/harvest/handler.py?pkg=gnumeric <-- four bugs have been resolved upstream but the fixes are in the GNOME VCS. Is it worthwhile/recommended to apply those patches to the current intrepid version though it is not released? [07:25] also would it require any exception? I hope not as it does not add any feature but fixes 4 bugs [07:27] tuxmaniac: you could try to get in touch with upstream and ask when their next release is due - you could then ask for a FFe for that, if it takes too long for them to release a new version, you could try to patch the current gnumeric package [07:27] tuxmaniac: best to ask in #ubuntu-desktop as well [07:27] Would we get it naturally through a release we would normally expect to get before release? [07:27] maybe there are update plans already [07:27] tuxmaniac: Generally no freeze exception is required for bugfix only, although if you introduce a new version, documentation is appreciated. [07:29] tuxmaniac: we're at 1.8.3 in intrepid and 1.9.2 has been released (this might be an unstable release, so best to chat with the upstream folks and ask) [07:29] dholbach: ok thanks [07:29] anytime [07:43] morning o/ [07:56] What is Playdeb and why is it on Planet? [07:56] It sounds awfully like Getdeb. [08:00] wgrant: It is part of getdeb. [08:00] As for why it's on planet, the bzr history will tell you who added the feed. [08:03] <\sh> getdeb was mentioned the last time on linux-community.de and I had to explicitly add a comment that this repo is third party, and no bugs should be filed against ubuntu for those packages...sounds like "remember, remember the 5th of november. the gunpowder, treason, and plot. I know of no reason why the gunpowder treason should ever be forgot" [08:05] persia: He added it himself, it seems. [08:05] Odd that we have such Members. [08:08] hello motus. I have re-uploaded gresistor after fixing lincese issues. If a MOTU can review and comment on http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/details.py?package=gresistor (may be advocate if found OK) I will go ahead with rising an exception. hopefully it gets approved since it is a small package and definitely not going to break things. [08:09] The freeze isn't there to be ignored. [08:10] wgrant: i didnt get the point. [08:10] The point of a freeze isn't really to just say that this new package probably won't break anything. It's not something we really want, so I don't think it should receive a freeze exception. But I'm not on motu-release. [08:11] superm1: Do you think disabling ivtv is a viable option? [08:11] wgrant: ok. so I wait for the next cycle. [08:15] \sh: Fawlkes! [08:16] wgrant: You might have a chat with such a party, if you like. I know most of the games listed there are also in the repos, and most of the exceptions either have licensing issues or are in SVN waiting for squeeze to open to be uploaded. [08:17] I've little time for much Ubuntu activity until mid-November, unfortunately. [08:18] And initiating discuss with a person in that category is guaranteed to absorb time. [08:22] wgrant: Understood. Perhaps someone else will do it. I know that the first response to that post was by a member of the Debian Games team, wondering why playdeb was separate. === warp10_ is now known as warp10 [08:32] superm1: Debdiff on bug #262832 if you're interested [08:32] Launchpad bug 262832 in mplayer "mplayer needs to be rebuilt for liblame -> libmp3lame transition" [Undecided,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/262832 [08:36] Hey, if anyone cares, the u-u-c logo on LP has a nontransparent background [08:40] Laney: Perhaps you've a version with a transparent background?

I remember it a bit. Some times ago I asked kirkland about regression potential for a lsb SRU.

[13:54] however, I recognize that the nagios2 patch introduces the path with least chance of regression [13:54] kirkland: I couldn't find another bug that would get fixed by a LSB SRU [13:54] if we get any resistance for the LSB patch, we'll push the nagios2 one instead [13:54] Koon: hmm, interesting [13:55] Koon: well, i think the nagios2 patch would be much easier to SRU [13:55] kirkland: and since I already have a SRU for nagios2 for another bug... [13:55] Koon: LSB is so fundamental, and used by every init script that it will come under heavy, heavy scrutiny [13:56] Koon: oh, you're SRU'ing something else for nagios2?

And have found one item in harvest that I would like to fix. checkgmail. But it is a unmetdeps. How should this be fixed? [18:06] balachmar: Generally it's important to find out which dependency is unmet, why it was listed as a dependency, and with what it may be replaced. [18:11] persia: If you could have a look at the bugreport: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/checkgmail/+bug/201555 . Am I right in thinking that this bug should be thought of as resolved because the dependancies should be met in intrepid, apart from one. Which is handled in another bug report? [18:11] Launchpad bug 201555 in checkgmail "checkgmail dependencies not met/checked" [Medium,Confirmed] [18:23] balachmar: That's quite a mess of related issues, but yes, the bug history makes it look like that bug isn't the place to start detangling it. [18:23] That said, if checkgmail really *needs* those libraries, they ought be Depends: rather than Recommends: [18:24] Reading more carefully, it appears it just acts strangely with them as Recommends, but actually works. [18:51] persia: yes I have read that as well, so what would be the way to go? Mark it as closed or something? [18:51] balachmar: If you think it's fixed, you could mark it as closed. Have you tested it in intrepid? [18:52] will do that in my VM (after the upgrade, I am currently testing the upgrade proces) [18:52] Generally I think anything mark Fix Released should have been confirmed as actually closed, rather than theoretically closed. [18:52] The exception being certain classes of bugs against removed packages. [18:53] persia: Will check it in my VM. Thanks for the help so far.

Should I just link the issue from LP to debian? [22:14] or should we update our package in ubuntu to latest from upstream? [22:14] we need freeze exceptions at this point, right? *checks calendar* [22:15] jdong: yeah we hit FF [22:15] okey, but the LP issue should be linked to debian anyway? [22:23] Hmmm. [22:23] Interesting logic, this. [22:24] Coper: Yes, so we can track it's status there. [22:24] People are starting their own repositories because we are apparently too slow because we don't have enough manpower, thus removing some possible manpower from us. This is smart. [22:25] wgrant: playdeb.net? [22:25] laga: Correct. [22:25] yeah, that seems a bit silly. [22:26] i wonder if they don't like the QC imposed by REVU [22:27] what about if we instituted a mandatory number of packages to be revu'd within a given release to keep ~ubuntu-dev rights? it would keep people up on skills and help out a bit. [22:28] speaking of review speed... could I bri... interest anyone in looking at one or both of my two packages? :) [22:28] (python-fstab and system-cleaner; the second depends on the first) [22:28] liw: Why aren't they in sid?
