| apetrescu | I'm trying to build the latest Anjuta that was released recently, but I'm running into a problem caused by the fact that ubuntu's copy of gnome-build is severely, severely outdated | 00:12 |

| apetrescu | The latest version is 2.24, Ubuntu stocks 0.2.4. | 00:13 |
| apetrescu | Does anyone know if any deb packages exist for a more recent gnome-build, or should I file a launchpad ticket about this? | 00:13 |

| TheMuso | acoc: The seeds for ubuntu intrepid for example can be checked ot with this URL: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-dev/ubuntu-seeds/ubuntu.intrepid | 01:43 |
| acoc | TheMuso: thank you, why does that website say it is not developed through launchpad? | 01:44 |
| TheMuso | acoc: Because the ubuntu-seeds project is only used for bzr branch hosting. There are no tarballs/websites/docs etc associated with it,. | 01:45 |

| * maswan looks around, hunting a USN-645-1. :) | 07:30 | |
| asac | maswan: will be published quite soon i guess | 07:33 |
| asac | maswan: its basically what was announced here: http://www.mozilla.org/security/announce/ | 07:34 |
| pitti | Good morning | 07:35 |
| pitti | kirkland: yes, I told you; you need to add the addon to the computer device, like in ./policy/10osvendor/10-cpufreq.fdi | 07:36 |
| pitti | kirkland: the computer device is always initialized, so you can use it as a kind of "startup hook" to trigger the calling of addons (scripts in /usr/lib/hal/) | 07:37 |
| maswan | asac: Ah, ok. I was just a bit confused when the changelog I got mailed to me just said "oh, see usn-645-1 for whatever critical stuff we're updating now" :) | 07:40 |
| asac | maswan: yes. we dont include the detailed advisory titles/CVEs in changelog anymore; otherwise we wont be able to deliver in-sync security updates with mozilla | 07:42 |
| torkel | asac: It is intentional that I have to select which certificate to use multiple times (again) in intrepid? The "remember" checkbox is missing. | 07:45 |
| asac | torkel: what kind of certificates are those? client or server side? | 07:47 |
| torkel | asac: client | 07:47 |
| asac | torkel: ok. but thats not a regression right? | 07:48 |
| asac | (regression in the last upload) | 07:48 |
| dholbach | good morning | 07:49 |
| asac | good morning dholbach | 07:50 |
| torkel | asac: well, before the last upload I was only asked once (for each site), now I am asked multiple times | 07:50 |
| dholbach | hiya asac | 07:50 |
| torkel | asac: I think it changed with the upload of xulrunner, not ff | 07:50 |
| asac | torkel: what update was that. build3 -> build6? or was it 1.9.0.1 -> 1.9.0.2 | 07:51 |
| asac | ? | 07:51 |
| torkel | build3->build6 | 07:52 |
| torkel | i.e the upload that was done yesterday | 07:52 |
| asac | interesting. anyway. the next nss upload should fix it for you | 07:53 |
| torkel | asac: great. thanks! | 07:53 |
| asac | i am currently trying to find out if we already have a test build somewhere | 07:53 |
| asac | torkel: but client certs still work at least right? | 07:53 |
| asac | torkel: ohj ... you said "again" above. does it mean that you had the same problem in 1.9.0.1? | 07:54 |
| torkel | asac: somewhere in the hardy timeframe I switched FF to automatically choose a cert, and I just turned it off again a week ago. So I really don't know when it was fixed. | 07:56 |
| tjaalton | asac: hey, is it a known bug that after a firefox update the current running instance can't be shutdown from File-Quit (or with ctrl-q)? | 07:57 |
| asac | tjaalton: well. there are plenty of bugs surrounding upgrades while still running | 07:57 |
| asac | tjaalton: do you have ubufox installed? | 07:58 |
| tjaalton | asac: yes, it's a normal ubuntu system | 07:58 |
| asac | i think the latest version should offer you a restart button ... which might help a bit | 07:58 |
| tjaalton | the notification bubble? | 07:59 |
| asac | tjaalton: are you currently in such a state? | 07:59 |
| tjaalton | erm, popup | 07:59 |
| tjaalton | yep | 07:59 |
| tjaalton | this is hardy | 07:59 |
| asac | tjaalton: within firefox ... there should be a yellow notification bar | 07:59 |
| asac | tjaalton: ah | 07:59 |
| tjaalton | I'll try it on intrepid | 07:59 |
| asac | tjaalton: on intrepid there should be a restart button in a notification area (like remember password) after upgrading firefox ... which might still have issues :) | 08:00 |
| tjaalton | asac: heh, ok. will see how it works | 08:02 |
| asac | tjaalton: http://people.ubuntu.com/~asac/screenshots/ubufox_restart_notification_intrepid.png | 08:03 |
| tjaalton | asac: oh, looks nice | 08:04 |
| alex_mayorga | hi, is there a chance of bluez-gnome-1.4 making it into intrepid? | 08:05 |
| tjaalton | asac: hum, nothing happened :) I got the light bulb on the notification area, but no restart button on the browser | 08:07 |
| alex_mayorga | tjaalton, you mean in FF .2 update? | 08:08 |
| tjaalton | alex_mayorga: right, the latest one | 08:08 |
| alex_mayorga | I got a reset button on FF, similar to the save password one, after the latest safe-upgrade on Intrepid | 08:09 |
| alex_mayorga | I also got a button to "my rights" or something similar after the restart, that contained bits of the Mozilla license | 08:10 |
| alex_mayorga | oddly, the light bulb notification didn't go away even after the FF restart | 08:11 |
| asac | alex_mayorga: light bulb notification == the thing in the system tray? | 08:11 |
| alex_mayorga | asac, exactly | 08:11 |
| asac | tjaalton: strange. | 08:12 |
| asac | tjaalton: sudo touch /var/lib/update-notifier/user.d/firefox-3.0-restart-required | 08:12 |
| asac | alex_mayorga: you also got the restart button in-browser? | 08:12 |
| asac | like /var/lib/update-notifier/user.d/firefox-3.0-restart-required ? | 08:12 |
| alex_mayorga | I clicked Close button and it went away now | 08:12 |
| asac | err | 08:12 |
| asac | http://people.ubuntu.com/~asac/screenshots/ubufox_restart_notification_intrepid.png | 08:12 |
| alex_mayorga | asac, yes I did, but looks like the notification didn't detected I've restarted already, not that it should IMHO | 08:13 |
| tjaalton | asac: the file was already there? touching it didn't help | 08:13 |
| alex_mayorga | asac, yes exactly like that screencap | 08:13 |

| asac | tjaalton: is there any error in tools -> error console? | 08:14 |
| asac | tjaalton: also, double check that you have no (old) ubufox instlaled in your profile (if tools -> addons offers you to "uninstall" then go for it) | 08:15 |
| asac | alex_mayorga: yeah notification area isnt the smartes thing in the world. the in-browser restart button is supposed to replace that at some point completely | 08:16 |
| alex_mayorga | anyone that might have decision power on the bluez-gnome thingie? | 08:17 |
| tjaalton | asac: lots. are the new ones in the bottom? | 08:17 |
| asac | tjaalton: you can filter for "errors" at the top of the error console | 08:17 |
| davmor2 | asac: why won't FF run under valgrind? | 08:18 |
| asac | tjaalton: if there are still plenty of errors on the console its probably the reason ... would be cool if you could paste a few of those errors | 08:18 |
| asac | davmor2: it should work | 08:18 |
| asac | davmor2: i start like: valgrind /usr/lib/firefox-3.0.2/firefox | 08:19 |
| davmor2 | asac: okay ta | 08:19 |

| asac | tjaalton: you are not having latest ubufox version? | 08:20 |
| asac | tjaalton: that was an intermediate issue. thought i didnt upload that version :/ | 08:21 |
| tjaalton | asac: well I just upgraded, so was the latest one the first with this feature?-) | 08:21 |
| asac | tjaalton: no. there were more before | 08:21 |
| asac | at least the one before had that | 08:22 |
| tjaalton | asac: ok, I'll restart and test the behaviour by hand | 08:22 |
| davmor2 | asac: ta that worked :) | 08:22 |
| asac | tjaalton: ok 0.6~b1-0ubuntu1 had that issue | 08:22 |
| asac | tjaalton: i then uploaded 0.6~b1-0ubuntu2 with just that fix | 08:23 |
| asac | and ubuntu3 is the upgrade you should have received now | 08:23 |
| asac | tjaalton: thanks | 08:23 |
| asac | maybe you still had ubuntu1 | 08:23 |
| asac | davmor2: welcome | 08:24 |
| tjaalton | asac: 0ubuntu1 installed on 16th, 0ubuntu2 on 18th and 0ubuntu3 today :) | 08:24 |
| asac | tjaalton: maybe you didnt restart firefox ;) | 08:24 |
| asac | (unlikely i know) | 08:24 |
| tjaalton | asac: I did, started it right before the latest upgrade :) | 08:24 |
| tjaalton | anyway, will try with the latest stuf | 08:25 |
| tjaalton | +f | 08:25 |
| asac | tjaalton: ok. lets see. | 08:25 |
| tjaalton | asac: duh, still the same errors | 08:26 |
| asac | *sigh* | 08:27 |
| asac | tjaalton: what do you have as LANG? | 08:27 |
| tjaalton | I wonder if I'm missing something | 08:27 |
| asac | running plain en_US install? | 08:27 |
| tjaalton | fi_FI | 08:27 |
| asac | tjaalton: try to start firefox as LANG=en_US firefox please | 08:27 |
| asac | tjaalton: btw, is firefox translated at all for you ? | 08:28 |
| tjaalton | no.. langpack got removed at some point | 08:28 |

| tjaalton | aha, well, to answer that I'd need to know a bit more about the underlying mess ;) | 08:55 |
| tjaalton | but I guess one reason why evdev can't handle the battery hotkey is because it's not specified in symbols/inet | 08:56 |

| cjwatson | liw: is the latter in Ubuntu? | 11:54 |
| cjwatson | liw: oh, also, I believe that the schroedinger implementation is the only one that is implemented as a gstreamer plugin | 11:54 |

| liw | cjwatson, you may be right about gstreamer, at least | 11:55 |
| liw | cjwatson, "dirac" and related packages should be dirac-research, as far as I can see | 11:56 |

| seb128 | tseliot: ok | 16:19 |
| tkamppeter | pitti, I asked the reporters for testing with a replacement filter for pdftoraster, a scriptonly containing '/usr/lib/cups/filter/cpdftocps "$@" | /usr/lib/cups/filter/pstoraster "$@"' and this one works. Should we replace pstoraster in CUPS for the beta? | 16:21 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: I'm afraid I don't know these filters well enough for a qualified answer; but I thought the idea was to not convert pdf to postscript? | 16:24 |
| tkamppeter | pitti, yes, we do not want to do too many conversions and Ghostscript can take PDF as input. | 16:26 |
| tkamppeter | pitti, this filter is an interim workaround for the time being until we get a fixed pdftoraster. | 16:27 |
| === koon is now known as Koon | ||
| tkamppeter | pitti, Ghostscript needs very many parameters to generate CUPS raster. These parameters are set by PostScript commands in the PPD file. The new pdftoraster and also imagetoraster parse the parameters out of the PPD and create the raster data then. The pstoraster of CUPS takes these parameters embedded in the PostScript stream (by pstops). | 16:30 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: it's not possible to reproduce the crash? | 16:31 |
| tkamppeter | pitti, rewriting the parsing process would be awkward and very complicated if one wants to take into account all option types, including custom options. | 16:32 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: well, your call I think, but it would basically revert 90% of the pdf workflow, wouldn't it? | 16:32 |
| tkamppeter | pitti, the important core part of page management on PDF (pdftopdf) stays conserved. | 16:34 |
| tseliot | bryce, seb128: I have attached the 3 debdiffs and the diffstat for the FFE here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/220563 | 16:34 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu bug 220563 in gnome-control-center "Useful dual-head configuration requires manual editing of xorg.conf to set Virtual" [Low,Fix released] | 16:34 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: but it'd seem better to me to just fix the segfault instead? | 16:35 |
| tkamppeter | The best would perhaps be a C program derived from the current pdftoraster (or imagetoraster) which does the ugly parsing but instead of producing raster by itself it calls Ghostscript | 16:35 |
| tkamppeter | pitti, this is less for the segfault, but because of the black pages. | 16:36 |
| pitti | hm, I thought it said "crash" | 16:36 |
| tkamppeter | pitti, Both bugs also complain about black pages. | 16:37 |
| tkamppeter | pitti, the little script which I have written solved the black page problem. | 16:37 |
| tkamppeter | pitti, and the reporter of the bug with the crash has even the crash solved. Seems that the crash was caused by broken CUPS raster data fed into the driver (but then the driver should also not crash). | 16:39 |
| TheMuso | slangasek: I'm about to file a bug that I would like to be milestoned for beta, as I'm probably not going to get it fixed before beta freezre. I feel its important due to the fact that its currently not possible to install ubuntu onto a dmraid array, and successfully detect and make use of other operating systems, i.e no dual boot. | 16:39 |

| === chuck_ is now known as zul | ||

| liw | calc, congratulations | 17:20 |
| calc | only took them 2 weeks to restore my power, lol | 17:20 |
| calc | there wasn't even any real damage in the area, apparently the underground power in our neighborhood was feed by an above ground pole at some point | 17:21 |

| mathiaz | ahasenack: meh - landscape-client doesn't register when the package is installed from the installer. | 18:21 |
| mathiaz | ahasenack: that's because landscape-client is not started and dbus is not running | 18:22 |
| ahasenack | mathiaz: any idea why? | 18:22 |
| ahasenack | hmm | 18:22 |
| ahasenack | mathiaz: it may register later when the machine is booted, it tries in the background IIRC | 18:23 |
| ahasenack | mathiaz: but I suppose there is an ugly error message during the installation | 18:24 |
| mathiaz | ahasenack: well - in the syslog yes. | 18:24 |
| jkakar | Is DBUS ever expected to run in the installer? Is this just an ordering issue? | 18:24 |
| mathiaz | ahasenack: this is the backtrace: http://paste.ubuntu.com/50203/ | 18:27 |
| ahasenack | mathiaz: "fake start-stop-daemon"? | 18:27 |
| mathiaz | ahasenack: right - daemons are not started during the install by default | 18:28 |
| cjwatson | jkakar: dbus is intentionally not started in the installer | 18:28 |
| mathiaz | ahasenack: well - the registration is retried in the background | 18:28 |
| cjwatson | landscape-client should cope somehow, perhaps by registering at boot | 18:28 |
| cjwatson | should as in "needs to" | 18:28 |
| mathiaz | cjwatson: correct - that's the case | 18:28 |
| cjwatson | starting daemons in the installer is a real can of worms | 18:28 |
| niemeyer | Hmm | 18:29 |
| niemeyer | It can actually already do that, we just need the right flags in place | 18:29 |
| niemeyer | We just won't be able to tell immediately if there's something wrong (e.g. the registration password, or account name) | 18:30 |
| mathiaz | well - AFAICT the computer was registered after the first boot - it just doesn't show up right away | 18:30 |
| ahasenack | mathiaz: what account did you use? | 18:30 |
| niemeyer | Or it could, anyway.. | 18:30 |
| * niemeyer checks | 18:30 | |
| mathiaz | ahasenack: my own account - | 18:30 |
| mathiaz | ahasenack: I think it works | 18:31 |
| mathiaz | ahasenack: it's just that you have to wait for the first reboot and little bit afterwards until the registration process is retried by landscape-client | 18:31 |
| niemeyer | Oops.. no, apparently the ladnscape-config option was removed at some point | 18:31 |
| ahasenack | mathiaz: did you reject the registration request on the server? | 18:32 |
| mathiaz | ahasenack: I think I accepted it | 18:32 |
| mathiaz | ahasenack: but I've already deleted the computer from my account | 18:32 |
| ahasenack | ok | 18:32 |
| niemeyer | mathiaz: Yes, you're right. Even with that failure, I think that should be the case indeed. | 18:33 |
| niemeyer | mathiaz: The computer should continue to try connecting.. nowadays the dbus connection in landscape-config is just to make the process faster and to provide live feedback to the user. | 18:34 |
| mathiaz | ahasenack: I'll redo a test install. | 18:34 |
| ahasenack | mathiaz: where can we get this iso? | 18:34 |
| mathiaz | ahasenack: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-server/daily/ | 18:35 |
| niemeyer | mathiaz: I wonder what would be the best way to handle this | 18:36 |
| niemeyer | mathiaz: We could support a --no-registration option somewhat easily | 18:36 |
| niemeyer | mathiaz: But the registration behavior is actually nice, when it does work | 18:36 |
| ahasenack | hmm, that will take some time to download | 18:36 |
| ahasenack | like, tomorrow | 18:36 |
| niemeyer | Maybe we should just prettify the error message | 18:37 |
| niemeyer | "Connection to the landscape broker failed." or something | 18:37 |
| cjwatson | it shouldn't cause a visible error in the installer at all | 18:38 |
| cjwatson | and it needs to not cause the package to fail to configure | 18:38 |
| cjwatson | that's very important - the installer by design doesn't recover easily from that | 18:38 |
| mathiaz | cjwatson: ok - as of now that's what happen (the pkg fails to configure) | 18:38 |
| cjwatson | I know | 18:38 |
| cjwatson | I read the log | 18:38 |
| niemeyer | cjwatson: Hopefully neither of these ideas conflict with the suggestion above | 18:38 |
| cjwatson | they don't, but simply changing the error message isn't enough :) | 18:39 |
| cjwatson | that's all I'm emphasising | 18:39 |
| niemeyer | cjwatson: Yeah, I was mostly thinking about landscape-config.. | 18:39 |
| ahasenack | well, seems we can't register during installation | 18:40 |
| mathiaz | niemeyer: IIUC we could get rid of landscape-config in the postinst if we don't want register at all | 18:40 |
| ahasenack | but that wizard also prepares the client.conf file | 18:40 |
| niemeyer | mathiaz: Why does configure fail exactly? | 18:40 |
| ahasenack | so maybe have an option for it to not attempt the registration, just prepare the conf file | 18:40 |
| mathiaz | niemeyer: because of the registration with dbus | 18:40 |
| niemeyer | mathiaz: We want to set it up, and that's the way in which we setup the landscape-client | 18:40 |
| niemeyer | mathiaz: That's why landscape-client fails.. what exactly is causing the configuration of the package to fail? | 18:41 |
| niemeyer | Sorry.. s/landscape-client/landscape-config/ | 18:41 |
| mathiaz | niemeyer: landscape-config returns a non 0 value | 18:41 |
| mathiaz | niemeyer: http://paste.ubuntu.com/50203/ | 18:42 |
| mathiaz | niemeyer: how does landscape-client checks if it should register ? | 18:43 |
| mathiaz | niemeyer: if there is a retry in the background, landscape-client has a way to figure out that it has all the information to do the registration on its own | 18:44 |
| niemeyer | mathiaz: How is the script run? | 18:45 |
| niemeyer | mathiaz: I mean, normally a command in the middle of a script which return s non-zero value won't cause the whole script to return non-zero | 18:45 |
| === StooJ_ is now known as StooJ | ||
| niemeyer | mathiaz: I guess it's using some flag to enforce that? | 18:45 |
| mathiaz | niemeyer: maintainer scripts are run with set -e | 18:45 |
| niemeyer | mathiaz: Cool, thanks | 18:46 |
| niemeyer | mathiaz: As I explained above, this is already the case | 18:46 |
| niemeyer | mathiaz: The whole procedure will work fine, besides this error | 18:46 |
| niemeyer | mathiaz: The point is that the immediate registration is a good thing, when possible | 18:46 |
| niemeyer | mathiaz: It informs the user about errors in the information entered, and turns the process into something immediate, rather than on the next restart | 18:46 |
| niemeyer | mathiaz: So we should just ensure that landscape-config doesn't blow up, so that we don't screw the rest of the installation procedure | 18:47 |
| mathiaz | niemeyer: right - so I could a || true to the landscape-config command line | 18:47 |
| niemeyer | mathiaz: But trying to keep the current behavior | 18:47 |
| niemeyer | mathiaz: Yes, that would be a good immediate solution | 18:47 |
| niemeyer | mathiaz: We should prevent the traceback too ASAP | 18:48 |
| mathiaz | niemeyer: could landscape-config be modified to prevent to traceback ? | 18:48 |
| niemeyer | mathiaz: Definitely | 18:48 |
| mathiaz | niemeyer: I'd rather have that than adding || true to the maintainer script | 18:48 |
| mathiaz | niemeyer: there is a legitimate use case to not have the registration working. | 18:49 |
| niemeyer | mathiaz: Cool, let's do that then | 18:49 |
| mathiaz | niemeyer: adding a || true would just catch all the other potential errors | 18:49 |
| niemeyer | mathiaz: True | 18:50 |
| mathiaz | niemeyer: how fast could this be implemted ? | 18:51 |
| niemeyer | mathiaz: Quite quickly I believe | 18:51 |
| tkamppeter | pitti, CUPS package with interim pdftoraster is uploaded | 18:52 |
| niemeyer | mathiaz: It's just an option and a conditional.. the unittests are a bit boring on that area, though | 18:52 |
| niemeyer | Well, not an optional | 18:52 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: ah, ok; did you create an ubuntu bzr branch for cups? | 18:52 |
| niemeyer | Erm.. not an option.. we'll just catch the exception | 18:52 |
| mathiaz | niemeyer: could you get something ready today ? | 18:53 |
| tkamppeter | pitti, no. It is only an interim, the final solution I will put into the Debian BZR. | 18:53 |
| tkamppeter | pitti, it is only to get more chances to fix printer driver bugs with the beta. | 18:54 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: ok, noted; we just must be careful to not overwrite it accidentally | 18:54 |
| niemeyer | mathiaz: It depends on what else is going on.. I'm personally trying to address other important issues ATM.. I'll check if radix or someone else might have some time for it | 18:54 |
| radix | yo | 18:55 |
| radix | I can help | 18:56 |
| tkamppeter | pitti, in principle we should have Ubuntu and Debian CUPS synced. Deviations we do only if needed, for example if we have deadlines ahead or if you are on vacation. | 18:56 |
| mathiaz | radix: great - could you branch from lp:~ubuntu-core-dev/landscape-client/ubuntu ? | 18:57 |
| tkamppeter | pitti, I got another note from a bug reporter now, that the interim script did not only fix the black pages but also the crash. The original filter from OP Japan seems to produce really broken CUPS raster. | 18:57 |
| mathiaz | radix: this is the bzr branch that has the code that is uploaded to the archive. | 18:58 |
| radix | mathiaz: sure thing | 18:58 |
| radix | mathiaz: will you upload this as an ubuntu* bump, or should we release a new version number? | 18:59 |
| mathiaz | radix: what's easier for you | 19:01 |
| mathiaz | radix: if rolling a new tarball is too complicated we can bump the revision. | 19:02 |

| siretart | Riddell: it seems that this part of kdebase is redifining the keyword 'inline' to something funky. | 21:15 |
| siretart | Riddell: it doesn't look like an issue in xine to me, TBH | 21:16 |

| tkamppeter | pitti, can you upload a Jockey package ASAP with the fixed API (search_driver() to return result+list of installed packages) so that I can make an s-c-p package? Thanks. | 21:19 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: still waiting for your input in bug 269454, but I could do an upload without that if needed | 21:19 |
| tkamppeter | pitti, I have answered your questions now. bug mail notification is always delayed some time. | 21:20 |

| pitti | tkamppeter: ah, thanks | 21:21 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: anyway, I'm about to go to bed, so I'll do a quick upload now and a better one tomorrow | 21:21 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: I documented the search_driver() result structure in README.txt, FYI | 21:22 |
| tkamppeter | pitti, which hour tomorrow will the beta freeze be. | 21:24 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: depends on slangasek, I don't know | 21:24 |
| tkamppeter | pitti, thanks in advance for the quick upload. | 21:26 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: uploaded | 21:41 |
| NCommander | good $TIME all | 21:44 |
| cjwatson | evand: it hasn't even been that long since I processed the queue. I suspect it's getting joe-jobbed | 21:51 |
| evand | cjwatson: indeed, that's exactly what it was | 21:54 |
| slangasek | yes, u-d-a is also getting joe-jobbed | 22:02 |
| andrew_sayers | mdke: are you available to talk about IE6? | 22:09 |
| mdke | andrew_sayers: sure thing | 22:13 |
| andrew_sayers | mdke: ubuntu-doc better? | 22:14 |
| mdke | yeah | 22:14 |
| apachelogger | pitti: apport retracing marks a bug as duplicate of a private bug, but doesn't mention/explain the private state, which apparently confuses users (at least the one who just mentioned that) :/ | 22:30 |

| kirkland | bryce: ping | 23:05 |
| kirkland | bryce: i'm nearly done fixing the kvm/keycode mapping bug | 23:06 |
| kirkland | bryce: i have an X11 question, though | 23:06 |
| kirkland | bryce: in the configure, I need a check to conditionally add the -lX11 | 23:06 |
| kirkland | bryce: for now, i just stubbed -lX11 onto the beginning of the SDL_LIBS | 23:07 |
| kirkland | bryce: which "works", but it seems like that might be brittle | 23:07 |
| kirkland | bryce: i'm hoping you might point me at some source with a more appropriate check that I can clone | 23:07 |
| slangasek | eew, you're doing something that requires linking against libX11 directly? :) | 23:09 |
| kirkland | slangasek: as opposed to... ? | 23:11 |
| slangasek | I don't know - what are you doing that requires linking to libX11? | 23:11 |
| kirkland | slangasek: detecting evdev or not in kvm's internal qemu | 23:12 |
| kirkland | slangasek: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/50278/ | 23:13 |
| kirkland | slangasek: keycodes = XGetAtomName(info.info.x11.display, desc->names->keycodes); | 23:13 |
| slangasek | ah, yum | 23:13 |
| cjwatson | kvm/keycode> hooray! | 23:13 |
| kirkland | cjwatson: i'm 99% of the way there ;-) | 23:14 |
| cjwatson | you make me so happy | 23:14 |
| kirkland | cjwatson: it works, just trying to clean up one (possibly messy) aspect of the build | 23:14 |
| slangasek | kirkland: you're, uh... not really editing configure directly, are you? :) | 23:14 |
| kirkland | slangasek: this is debian/patches/evdev_keycode_map.patch | 23:15 |
| kirkland | slangasek: what do you suggest? | 23:15 |
| slangasek | kirkland: editing configure.{in,ac} and/or acinclude.m4, then regenerating configure | 23:16 |
| slangasek | editing configure directly tends to lead to confusing errors down the line | 23:16 |
| kirkland | slangasek: none of those exist | 23:16 |
| cjwatson | just be careful to look at the resulting diff to make sure there isn't a vast amount of junk due to configure last having been generated with a prehistoric autoconf | 23:16 |
| cjwatson | ... oh | 23:17 |
| slangasek | <blink> | 23:17 |
| kirkland | slangasek: apt-get source kvm | 23:17 |
| cjwatson | you do sometimes get configure with no configure.ac, due to an INSANE UPSTREAM | 23:17 |
| slangasek | looking :) | 23:17 |
| kirkland | cjwatson: slangasek: aliguori is upstream for qemu, been helping me with this in #ubuntu-virt | 23:18 |
| cjwatson | upstream isn't Fabrice any more? | 23:18 |
| kirkland | cjwatson: him too :-) | 23:19 |
| * slangasek scratches his head. Tony is upstream for qemu? | 23:19 | |
| slangasek | right, so qemu/configure is a hand-written script | 23:20 |
| slangasek | only 1572 lines long, though, so I guess that's ok ;P | 23:20 |
| kirkland | slangasek: my reasoning was that if you have SDL, then you have X11 | 23:20 |
| kirkland | slangasek: so I just chunked it on the front of there | 23:20 |
| slangasek | kirkland: I don't object to the reasoning; it might not fly with upstream, but it works fine for us :) | 23:20 |
| kirkland | cjwatson: any objections from you? | 23:21 |
| kirkland | that was my only reservation .... | 23:21 |
| cjwatson | not at all, just that it's unconventional for "configure" not to be autoconf-generated, that's all | 23:21 |
| kirkland | i'm going to post a debdiff and look for a sponsor | 23:21 |
| cjwatson | but I can't see a libX11 dependency being a problem here | 23:21 |
| kirkland | cjwatson: right libsdl depends on libx11 | 23:21 |
| kirkland | (fuzz up those names correctly ^) | 23:22 |
| cjwatson | libsdl1.2debian doesn't seem to unconditionally depend on libx11-6 | 23:22 |
| kirkland | cjwatson: need an explicit build dep, then? | 23:22 |
| cjwatson | the primary alternative seems to depend on libdirectfb | 23:23 |
| cjwatson | kirkland: you should always use an explicit build-dependency when using something directly, rather than relying on transitive build-deps | 23:23 |
| bryce | kirkland: no that's probably the right approach. All the examples I could point to have the X11 libs as prereqs | 23:23 |
| kirkland | bryce: thx | 23:23 |
| cjwatson | kirkland: dpkg-shlibdeps should find the runtime dependency for itself, though | 23:23 |
| cjwatson | the test for "do I need to build-depend on this even though one of my other build-deps depends on it" is "would I still need to build-depend on it if space aliens replaced that other build-dep with libhello?" | 23:24 |
| kirkland | cjwatson: shall I add libx11-dev to kvm's control file as a build-depends? | 23:24 |
| cjwatson | yes | 23:24 |
| kirkland | kewl | 23:25 |
| bryce | :-) | 23:25 |
| bryce | cjwatson: btw all the bugs mentioned at this morning's meeting have been reviewed and resolved | 23:26 |
| * NCommander flicks on the StevenK | 23:26 | |
| NCommander | ^light | 23:26 |
| bryce | cjwatson: also closed a couple others, all of which should be fine in current Intrepid. there's just one intrepid targeted X bug - that we don't have -fglrx yet. | 23:27 |
| cjwatson | thanks; I've been noticing lots of bugs from the meeting in the dist-upgrade I'm doing at the moment | 23:27 |
| cjwatson | asac cleared out a bunch too | 23:27 |
| cjwatson | bryce: do you think the acpi-support upload closed the hotkey bug? (I haven't had a chance to look yet, sorry, browser closed in preparation for reboot) | 23:28 |
| bryce | I don't think so. We didn't get mdz's test but several others tested it and did not find it fixed their issue | 23:29 |
| bryce | but all the changes included in it fixed specific bugs in debian so I think they're good. At least, no signs of regressions | 23:29 |
| kirkland | cjwatson: patch attached to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kvm/+bug/258389 | 23:30 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 258389 in kvm "Keyboard acting strangely on Intrepid hosts" [Undecided,Confirmed] | 23:30 |
| kirkland | cjwatson: zul offered to sponsor later tonight | 23:30 |
| kirkland | cjwatson: but it's there if you want it ;-) | 23:30 |
| cjwatson | oh, I'm not in *that* much of a rush, have to go out in a few minutes to pick up a friend from the station anyway | 23:31 |
| kirkland | cjwatson: np ;-) should be waiting for you in an update tomorrow | 23:31 |
| cjwatson | kirkland: beer[kirkland] += 1 if it works | 23:32 |
| james_w | Riddell: because I didn't and still don't have real upload rights anywhere, so I very rarely sign packages | 23:32 |
| kirkland | cjwatson: i just noticed your comments about virt*[s|z]* | 23:33 |
| james_w | Riddell: I don't think it should stay that way, but I haven't found a good way to suit both users that way | 23:33 |
| cjwatson | Riddell: oh yes, I meant to answer that; FWIW I have debuild configured not to sign anything either so I don't notice the difference :-) I prefer the model commit, build, test, sign | 23:33 |
| cjwatson | but it's easy to configure debuild either way, of course | 23:33 |
| aliguori | slangasek, fabrice doesn't really work on qemu anymore. he still has commit access but he's doesn't want to be maintainer anymore | 23:36 |
| slangasek | ah, well then :) | 23:37 |
| * pochu waves good night | 23:53 | |
