[05:40] dholbach: yup, but we use to have a table in there with some bugs listed [05:41] ahhhh right... the "Weekly Bugs" [05:41] that was just 10 bitesize and 10 packaging bugs picked randomly [05:41] yup [05:41] I used to update it every week but there was not a lot of excitement about it [05:42] exactly those [05:42] and especially with harvest now it makes even less sense for me to update it every week [05:42] :D [05:42] just checking [05:45] dholbach: btw, wouldn't it be nice to at least link harvest from ubuntuwire? [05:46] nxvl: yeah, sure - I just don't have editing powers there :) [05:46] the more links to harvest, the better [05:47] :D [05:47] wgrant would be able to change ubuntuwire for you [05:47] * ajmitch doesn't have a checkout of the branch handy === persia_ is now known as persia [06:01] jdong: you are going to kill me [06:19] dholbach, nxvl: It seems to already be on http://qa.ubuntuwire.com/. I don't recall who added it, but it has been there for ~1.5 months [06:19] rock and roll [06:19] thanks wgrant! [06:19] np [06:19] * wgrant returns to work. [06:21] It might want to be renamed on that page; please ask if you feel the same. [06:22] maybe "Harvest - Aggregated package opportunities"? [06:23] dholbach: Done. [06:24] the unstoppable wgrant! [06:24] gracias! [06:24] Unstoppable except for damn uni work, sure. [06:25] I miss uni work. [06:28] crimsun: But you're crimsun. [06:50] siretart: ping [06:50] j-b: in 30 mins. on the way to work [06:51] siretart: just to tell you we are going to tag VLC 0.9.3 tomorrow or the following day [06:51] to fix bugs [06:54] Good morning. [07:28] j-b: now I'm back! [07:29] j-b: ah, do you have a link with a changelog mentioning the fixed bugs? [07:34] siretart: yes, I do [07:35] siretart: bigger is DTS-channel fix [07:35] http://git.videolan.org/?p=vlc.git;a=blob;f=NEWS;h=221e1dd6e80549c04762ade78ad38ae28c76f031;hb=0.9-bugfix [07:36] siretart: so, for linux port, it means a few crashes fixes, DTS 5.1 channel order, pausing subtitles and MMS behaviour regression fix [07:37] dholbach: is there a way/futur implementation on harvest to only see a subset of packages for preferences to the team? norsetto's work, for instance, did a very good for the desktop team: http://www.webalice.it/norsetto/ [07:38] didrocks: team stuff is in progress, until then you can use URLs like http://daniel.holba.ch/harvest/handler.py?pkg=audacity,avahi,pulseaudio [07:39] using the script in https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2008-August/026027.html helps too :) [07:39] dholbach: great, thanks :) [07:39] * didrocks hugs dholbach [07:40] de rien === superm1 is now known as superm1|away [08:21] hi [08:22] i'm trying to play with making packages in ubuntu using pbuilder [08:22] but for some reason dh_shlibdeps doesn't pick-up the deps [08:26] I presume that you've actually got a ${shlibs:deps} in your package's Depends: field? [08:27] yep [08:28] here is part of logs [08:28] dh_installdeb [08:28] dh_shlibdeps [08:28] dh_gencontrol [08:28] dpkg-gencontrol: warning: unknown substitution variable ${shlibs:Depends} [08:29] Are there actually shared library dependencies involved? That seems somewhat odd. [08:30] i'm trying to modify an exisiting package, the initial package builds fine, the only things i [08:30] have changed so far are the names of the package [08:31] Does the unmodified package also exhibit that warning? [08:32] nope, it seems to pick up the deps just fine [08:32] Oh. You changed the package name; did you also change the install files (if any)? [08:33] I'd _guess_ that you're now building an empty package, and so there aren't any shlibdeps. [08:34] i see [08:36] it look like the code gets compiled, but i guess you mean the install scripts don't copy it to proper place for a package to be made? [08:37] .install files. [08:38] Projects/pkg-cli-apps/packages/smuxi/trunk/debian/smuxi-frontend.install [08:38] Right. The general flow of a multi-binary package build is "upstream build" -> "upstream install to $(CURDIR)/debian/tmp" -> "dh_install moves files from tmp to debian/$(PKGONE) debian/$(PKGTWO), etc" [08:38] Then, run the rest of the build process on the contents of debian/$PKGONE, debian/$PKGTWO, etc. [08:39] So, if the package you touched has a mypackage.install file, and you changed the name from mypackage to yourpackage, dh_install will no longer pick up mypackage.install, and won't move things into the right place. [08:40] thank you! let me digg into it a little more :) [08:40] RAOF, was f-spot still hanging on exit, as far as you know?

[14:03] it can be uploaded with the change reverted though, that's no problem [14:03] yeah, like james_w said, we can do a ubuntu2 version [14:03] to replace the broken ubuntu1 [14:04] james_w, whose approval do i need to get that into intrepid before release if i prep a debdiff? [14:04] directhex: no-one at the moment [14:04] directhex: you just need a sponsor [14:04] nobody sponsors me. they go & hide when i appear [14:06] if you prepare a diff and put a link here I'm sure someone will sponsor it [14:06] though using a bug at this point is probably a good idea with the freeze in effect [14:06] you can still ask on here though [14:06] Laibsch, just revert the python-metakit binary depends:, yes? [14:07] yes [14:07] The other change from that commit seems to be correct for ubuntu [14:07] although I wouldn't mind being listed as maintainer [14:07] directhex: yeah, I think so, might as well leave the maintainer field change [14:07] As I said, I use ubuntu myself as my main system [14:08] Laibsch, it's normal to set the Mainteiner: to the motu thing. yeah, i know i know.

It may be possible to make it call gcc instead of ld. [14:51] correct fix for what? [14:54] bobbo: hey, you around?

That "you-ship-broken-software" guy hasn't update for three years at least. [15:17] A bddebian! [15:18] Hi folks [15:18] Hi sistpoty|work, geser [15:18] Laibsch: the encoding error? [15:18] yes [15:19] which might be another bug [15:19] i wonder if he's even dist-upgraded after changing his sources.list [15:19] because the error about encoding problems is incorrect [15:19] directhex: he says he did [15:19] hi, for packaging do i need to follow the debian manual? [15:19] Laibsch: I can see the characters that it is probably complaining about, but I don't know why it doesn't complain for anyone else [15:20] james_w: because they are declared === lmr is now known as lmr[lunch] [15:20] or at least that is what I think why it works [15:20] arvind_khadri, yeah, pretty much, but there are more user-friendly guides on the ubuntu wiki [15:21] directhex, the things remain the same right ?? :) [15:22] arvind_khadri, yes, ish. there are some tiny differences to bear in mind if you're packaging software for ubuntu main [15:22] arvind_khadri, generally speaking though, the best way to get an app into ubuntu is by getting it into debian first [15:23] directhex, i want to create a .deb from a tarball basically and as of now i want to make it work in ubuntu [15:24] arvind_khadri, a well-written source package will compile on either distro (usually) ;) [15:24] directhex, :) ok so shall i go ahead with the debian manual? [15:24] yes [15:25] directhex, thanks [15:27] directhex, the package has been written for fedora btw ... [15:32] directhex, can i convert it into a .deb? [15:33] arvind_khadri, don't. those conversions are very dangerous to users' systems [15:34] directhex, ok so if i want to make that particular package be made as a .deb what shall i do? [15:34] arvind_khadri, just follow the debian packaging guide. use the fedora specfile as a reference only for things like the ./configure flags and so on, but generate a clean debian/rules file [15:35] arvind_khadri, in theory, dh_make is a tool to make a skeleton package automatically - but verify the output! [15:37] directhex, hmm [15:49] arvind_khadri: which package are you talking about? [15:55] james_w: pong [15:56] hey bobbo [15:56] hey :) [15:56] bobbo: did you see Colin's comments on the bzr bug? [15:56] james_w: yeah, I have a freeze exception for 1.6.1? [15:57] bobbo: I haven't done one for main yet this cycle, so I'm not up to speed on the process, but you have an ACK from one RM at least [15:58] james_w: cool, I'll look it up but i'm guessing either thats it or i'll only need one more (havent touched main for ages either) [15:59] bobbo: yeah, they were my thoughts too. Are you happy with going to 1.6.1? [15:59] james_w: yeah it seems to make most sense at the moment as 1.7rc2 hasnt been released yet so it could be a while... [16:00] and im guessing the longer the release cycle, the more stuff gets changed which means less chance of it getting accepted by -release [16:00] well once rc1 is out only a few things trickle in [16:00] I think 1.7 may be today or tomorrow [16:00] or is it 1.7rc2, I don't remember. [16:01] james_w: ah didnt know that..i'll have a look and decide soonish but im still leaning towards doing 1.6.1 tbh [16:01] bobbo: I suggest we sync 1.6.1 from Debian after getting the exception, and then cherry pick those important fixes, what do you think? [16:02] james_w: yeah, makes sense to me, I'll have a look at it in a bit (got some homework to do now). Thanks for your help! [16:04] coming back to gourmet, if I may. The bug report is really a wishlist request to support importation from metakit based recipe collections [16:04] Given the fact that the last metakit version of gourmet is about three years old and the apparently sorry state of metakit in general, my motivation to support the switching over from metakit-based recipe collections borders on 0. [16:05] bobbo: great, thanks. Give me a shout if I can help with anything. [16:05] bobbo: and Thursday is Beta freeze, so getting it in before then would be a good idea I think [16:06] james_w: ok, i'll try to get as much of it as possible done by tonight [16:06] Should I leave the bug report open or set it to wontfix. I guess the one to fix packaging would be me and I don't feel like doing it -> wontfix in that sense. I won't prevent anyone else from supplying a patch, of course, this is not a conscious choice not to fix things -> not quite wontfix [16:06] wontfix or leave open? [16:07] I'd think wontfix mostly applies if you think it's NOTABUG or something, but the submitter disagrees; or have otherwise technical reservations against fixing it [16:08] Laibsch: if Luis confirmed my suspicion I was going to suggest transforming the bug to be "fail more gracefully when metakit isn't available and the user has a metakit based database to import" [16:08] Laibsch: then there could be a second request to re-instate metakit in Ubuntu to allow these people to import. [16:08] Well, it seems importation can be done [16:09] I collected that information but apparently did not write it here [16:09] Let me pastebin it [16:09] http://rafb.net/p/YBfPnO87.html [16:10] We could fail more gracefully and that would be easy enough to do [16:10] Agreed === superm1|away is now known as superm1 [16:30] geser: sounds sane, thanks :) (re: LDFLAGS) [17:19] Adri2000: ping [17:20] bug 127496 you uploaded to hardy-proposed? it needs a debdiff on the bug and approval by motu-sru [17:20] Launchpad bug 127496 in ngircd "ngircd will not uninstall or update" [Medium,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/127496 [17:23] Riddell: just from a glance, maybe the sru is at bug #85266?
