nhandlerHello emgent`nl00:12
bddebianWhy the fsck can I not create an intrepid pbuilder from hardy?03:05
lifelesshave you installed the backported pbuilder?03:06
bddebianProbably not.  Do I have to?03:06
bddebianI normally just copy the debootstrap scripts and modify them a little.03:06
lifelessyes, hardies pbuilder is frozen before intrepid exists03:06
lifelesswell, there are a bunch of deps of debootstrap - any of them being outdated can cause an error03:07
bddebianHmm, never done it before between releases.03:07
bddebianpersia: Guess I can't help ya. ;-P03:07
bddebianHardy-backports doesn't pick up any newer version03:12
lifelesswell, if the deps are up to date, it might just be something anomalous03:15
persiabddebian: There's an updated debootstrap in backports.03:17
persiahttp://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/d/debootstrap/ : look for ~hardy103:18
persiaIf that doesn't work, 1.0.10 can be backported (and maybe should be, considering DeveloperWeek)03:18
bddebianfricking thing is downloading alien-arena-data at the moment :(03:20
persiabddebian: Which debootstrap do you have installed?03:25
bddebian1.0.803:27
persiaWhat arch do you have?03:27
bddebiani38603:27
persiaActually, doesn't even matter.  Grab http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/d/debootstrap/debootstrap_1.0.9~hardy1_all.deb03:27
persiaIf that doesn't work, complain, and 1.0.10 can be backported..  Just grab http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/d/debootstrap/debootstrap_1.0.10.dsc and recompile under hardy.03:28
persialifeless: The main issue with debootstrap 1.0.8 is that the release "intrepid" is entirely unknown, rather than dependencies, etc.03:32
bddebianpersia: Aye, which is why I usually just copy and modify03:32
NCommanderpersia, I "worked" around the issue by just copying the hardy script to intrepid03:32
NCommanderor just install the old release, and then upgrade it03:32
persiaNCommander: remember, an upgrade (even with do-release-upgrade) doesn't leave the system in the same state as an install.03:33
lifelesspersia: you can use the result though to do a clean debootstrap :P03:34
persiabddebian: As NCommander points out, it's always possible to create a hardy chroot, log in, and upgrade it.  Not 100% clean, but likely fine for most build tests.03:34
persialifeless: Indeed :)03:34
NCommanderpersia, you going to be around for a little bit03:35
persiaActually, one can probably do pbuilder --login (which doesn't save by default), upgrade, create a new pbuilder chroot, save that, and then throw away the dirty upgrade.03:35
persiaNCommander: For a while, I expect.03:36

NCommanderIt works fine04:23
NCommander(you get an intrepid chroot)04:23
bddebiand00d, that is where I started from04:23
NCommanderI never had any issues, I just did that yesterday on PowerPC04:23
bddebianNeither have I in the past04:24
persiabddebian: Try purging aptitude before upgrading.  aptitude isn't installed by default for intrepid.04:32
persiaslangasek: Yes, libjna-java did get test built.  I don't know why it worked for me, and not in the archives yet.  I'll sort it.04:33
slangasekpersia: possibly a -b test instead of a -B test?  anyway, cheers :)04:33
persiaslangasek: sbuild -A -d intrepid amd64 foo.dsc is my usual means of testbuilding.04:34
persiaErr intrepid.amd6404:34
bddebianpersia: Purging it from where, the damn thing doesn't even exist yet?04:36
persiabddebian: Oh.  I thought you were upgrading from hardy.  If you're creating it from scratch, I'm not sure how it could get in a state to do that.04:36
persiaDoes debootstrap work by itself against some arbitrary directory?  Is this a pbuilder-specific issue?04:37

Light-Does MOTU only Ubuntu-ise Debian packages, or do they also make Ubuntu packages from source (in cases where there is no Debian version available to Ubuntu-ise)?05:26
foxbuntuLight-, MOTU, is package administrators developers submit code to revu for MOTUs to review its up to snuff05:28
ScottKLight-: We do both.  Generally we like to use the Debian packages unmodified and would prefer to pass fixes and improvements back to Debian.05:30
Light-so... MOTU's only review submitted packages?05:30
Light-ohk05:30
ScottKNo, we also package stuff too.05:30
persiaLight-: Essentially, MOTU are responsible for about 12,000 packages, so wherever we can find ways to reduce the workload, we tend to be in favour.  Getting packages into Debian, and getting bugfixes upstreams are two ways we do that.05:35
Light-When you speak of bugfixes... are you referring to bugs in the package and not in the program?05:38
persiaLight-: Both.05:39
persiaWhere we can, we push package bugfixes to Debian (although there are a number of package bugfixes that are unique to Ubuntu), and we tend to push bugfixes for programs to both Debian and the program developers directly.05:39
Light-oh I see05:40
persiaAs long as we've not been successful in pushing the bugfixes upstream, we have to maintain the patches and port them to successive upstream releases, which is a lot of busywork, and does little to contribute to the overall quality of Ubuntu.05:43

directhexas long as intrepid ships with a fully 1.9.1 stack, i'm not fussed about when precisely ;)10:22
geserI'm correct that requests for sponsoring a merge filed before FF now also need a FFe if they are for a new upstream version?11:05
directhexgeser, i've been told both yes and no. YMMV.11:17
DktrKranzgeser: new upstream version doesn't always mean a FFe is required. If sponsors think new upstream is only for bugfixes (and it's clearly so), they can proceed stating new upstream is for bugfix only.11:20

cbx333annoying zealots12:28
cbx333I was asking advice on my slow graphics response12:28
cbx333and was told that I was very slow, for not being able to grasp a simple question12:28
highvoltagecbx333: ouch12:29
cbx333yeh ouch indeed12:29
cbx333it's unacceptable12:29
highvoltagethe person who did that should be reminded that the ubuntu CoC applies to the ubuntu irc channels12:29

liwwould anyone be interested in reviewing my two packages in REVU? http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/details.py?package=python-fstab and http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/details.py?package=system-cleaner are the relevant pages; the python-fstab package is needed by the system-cleaner package17:38
liwthe system-cleaner package will hopefully be a really cool tool for keeping a system clean from all sorts of cruft, even for people who keep upgrading them during development or from release to release17:38
persialiw: How does system-cleaner compare to the cruft utility?17:39
liwpersia, it's not restricted to packages, for example it adds the "relatime" option to fstab; it also has a GUI17:40
persiaOh, so it keeps all the miscellaneous configuration changes up-to-date, even though it's not a fresh install?17:42
liwthat's the idea, yes17:43
=== mcasadevall_ is now known as NCommander
* persia watches the joins/parts for a python packager who can check these packages, as they sound nifty17:50
ScottKliw: What's the compelling rationale for a Feature Freeze exception for Intrepid for this?17:51
ScottKThere are lots of people who still want packages in, but it's generally too late.  Why should these be special?17:51
sebnerpersia: system cleaner O_o17:52
liwScottK, that's a good question, I'm not sure I have an immediate answer, actually17:53
liwwhich means I suck, of course17:54
ScottKliw: Fair enough.  I suggest that's probably the first thing to get worked out.  Note you can't get an actual FFe until you have a reviewed package, but some early discussion with motu-release to see if it's worth doing now would probably be a good thing.17:54
liwhowever, a review would still be very much appreciated17:54

NCommandermorning ScottK18:01
sebnerliw: try to get it into Debian and with intrepid +1 we get it automatically18:01
persiasebner: Well, it's kinda Ubuntu-specific, no?  It cleans up leftover Ubuntu cruft.18:03
ograliw, i thought relatime was hardcoded in kernel now ? why do you need it in fstab18:05
liwI'm going to upload it to Debian, too (obviously, since I'm a DD), but Debian is in hard freeze, and I'm not going to bother Debian with this until after they release lenny; however, it might be good for Ubuntu to get this into intrepid so that cruft build-up can be reduced from intrepid already, and not from intrepid+118:05
liwogra, is it? I didn't know that (and I would be surprised, since it changes filesystem semantics)18:05
ograi see it all over my classmates where i use noatime in fstab by default ... so cat /proc/mounts looks a bit messy on them18:06
sebnerpersia: is it reallly useful or is like all the >1000 windows tools?18:06
ograshowing noatime,relatime18:06
liwogra, hmm18:06
persialiw: It cleans all cruft, not just Ubuntu cruft?18:07
ograbut i see relatime in my fstab on the normal intrepid lappie ... not sure how it got there18:07
ograand in /proc/mounts as well18:07
liwpersia, it has a plugin arch, and when I upload it for Debian, it will handle Debian cruft as well as Ubuntu18:08
liwogra, could it be specific to the lpia kernel?18:08
persiaAh.18:08
ograliw, nope, celeron classmates here18:08
ogranot using lpia18:08
liwpersia, however, certainly some of the tweaks are going to be system specific18:09
persiaObviously, as both the upgrade paths and specific cruft may differ.18:09
ograbut the kernel changelog doesnt talk about relatime so maybe i misremember18:10
ograand mount only talks about having it added to the manpage n its changelog18:10
* ogra quickly rushes to the shop ... forgot to buy catfood18:11

siretartLutin: could you please take a look at the mlt package? it currently FTBFS in intrepid, and it seems you touched the package last. I suspect that we need a new upstream version because of newer ffmpeg, but I'm not familiar with mlt at all18:31
siretartLutin: same for kdenlive18:33
Lutinsiretart: I know, and this is long overdue. however, I don't have the time needed to do that for the moment18:35
persiakees: Working on it.  Thanks for the submission.18:35
Lutinsiretart: but I'd bet the FTBFS is related to missing headers // gcc-4.318:36

sebnersiretart: Lutin : Wait! Are we talking about kdenlive or mlt? ^^18:46
