| up_the_irons | hey guys, am I right in seeing that "/usr/bin/man" doesn't appear in any package (in Hardy)? | 00:35 |
|---|---|---|
| up_the_irons | dpkg -S /usr/bin/man, does not return any package | 00:35 |
| up_the_irons | so, how do I get that binary short of copying it from another machine? is there some "base files" package I should look at? | 00:36 |
| up_the_irons | I don't know why it wasn't installed on this Xen guest I just created, weird | 00:36 |

| Hobbsee | james_w: looks like clutter (if it's the same as pyclutter) is out at 0.8.2? | 02:48 |
| RAOF | Clutter isn't the same as pyclutter; pyclutter is the python bindings. | 02:49 |
| RAOF | And there still aren't 0.8 python bindings. | 02:49 |
| Hobbsee | ahh | 02:50 |
| RAOF | At least, not on their ftp site. | 02:50 |

| ajmitch | the changelog entry says which file, too | 03:07 |

| superm1 | ScottK, i know nothing of the bluetooth experience on KDE | 04:23 |
| superm1 | ScottK, i could help wtih a test case on gnome, but the kde one is more important right now as I don't think anyone has done anything there | 04:23 |
| ScottK | superm1: OK. Well tell me what needs testing and I'll see what I can do. | 04:24 |
| superm1 | ScottK, attempt to pair an input device and make sure it still works | 04:24 |
| superm1 | ScottK, is there normally a KDE gui tool for doing such things? | 04:24 |
| ScottK | Yes. | 04:24 |
| ScottK | Unfortunately all I have to pair with is my phone and it doesn't qualify as an input device. | 04:24 |
| superm1 | ScottK, well that's another use case worth testing though, sending a file to the phone | 04:25 |
| ScottK | I can do that one. | 04:25 |
| superm1 | i'd actually expect some breakage there too possible since OBEX was a big change from BlueZ 3.x to 4.x | 04:25 |
| ScottK | superm1: Please send me an email with what needs tested and where to find the packages and I'll try to do it tomorrow. | 04:26 |
| superm1 | ScottK, will do | 04:26 |
| superm1 | ScottK, i might just send a generic call for testing to ubuntu-devel | 04:26 |

| StevenK | There is. | 04:32 |

| StevenK | From what I can, it's in unapproved, waiting for beta | 04:33 |
| StevenK | *can see | 04:33 |
| Elbrus | just to be sure: a binary-indep rule should not depend on a/the clean rule, right? At least in a PPA the binary-indep is build after binary-arch for i386 and the debian/files is removed by dh_clean removing the information about the binary-arch target... | 04:48 |
| * Elbrus still tries to build lazarus-ide for i386 in his PPA | 04:49 | |
| RAOF | Elbrus: binary-indep depending on clean: would be utter crack. | 04:49 |
| RAOF | Or, rather, a translation into what that means is "In order to build the arch-independent package from our built source tree, we must first remove all the binaries we built". | 04:50 |
| Elbrus | RAOF: thought so, but the maintainer of lazarus does that to remove the build binaries from the tree to put the source in lazarus-src | 04:50 |
| RAOF | Intriguing. | 04:50 |
| StevenK | Argh | 04:51 |
| Elbrus | and I just don't get it to work properly | 04:51 |
| RAOF | Sorry, why is there a lazarus-src package which is distinct from lazarus.orig.tar.gz, then? | 04:51 |
| StevenK | Elbrus: If binary-indep is after binary-arch, reorder them in the binary target | 04:51 |

| sirex` | I'm trying to build binary package of php 5.2.6. | 12:45 |
| sirex` | I apt-get sourced current source package, then kopied debian derectory to new sources and when I try to run dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot on new sources, I got errors about patches. | 12:46 |
| sirex` | Maybe some one knows how can I avoid it? | 12:47 |
| directhex | so turn off patches that are no longer needed | 12:47 |
| directhex | look in debian/patches/ | 12:47 |
| sirex` | directhex: yes, I tried it, removed all patches, but still getting errors: | 12:47 |
| sirex` | Patch disable_dl_by_default.patch does not remove cleanly (refresh it or enforce with -f) | 12:47 |
| sirex` | directhex: any suggestions? | 12:49 |
| sirex` | How can I refresh patchas? | 12:49 |
| directhex | start again | 12:49 |
| directhex | and make sure you work on the patch manifest, if php's patchsys uses one (e.g. 00list for dpatch) | 12:50 |
| sirex` | Running that command again, gives same error. | 12:50 |
| sirex` | hm, now I getting this: dpkg-source: unrepresentable changes to source | 12:53 |
| directhex | that's because you didn't start again properly | 12:55 |
| sirex` | directhex: so I should remove every thing and start again? | 12:56 |
| directhex | yes | 12:56 |
| directhex | i have to ask though... what ARE you doing? | 12:56 |
| directhex | intrepid already has php 5.2.6 | 12:56 |
| sirex` | But now I'm using Hardy. | 12:57 |
| sirex` | Which has only 5.2.4 | 12:57 |

| === viviersf2 is now known as viviersf | ||

| directhex | dget that. | 12:58 |
| sirex` | directhex: ah, ok, thanks. | 12:58 |
| highvoltage | sirex`: you could add a source-uri for hardy in your /etc/apt/sources.list file and then apt-get source it | 12:59 |
| highvoltage | for intrepid, I mean | 12:59 |
| directhex | you COULD, but it'd probably only lead to confusion in the future | 12:59 |
| directhex | and confusion is bad | 13:00 |

| slytherin | Ok. Does beta freeze affect universe packages? Can I attach a debdiff for some bugfix and request for sponsorship? | 13:17 |
| * Hobbsee thought those questions, and many others, were answered in the beta freeze announcement, which can be found in hte ubuntu-devel-announce archives. | 13:18 | |

| icf7 | I'm packaging a C library. Its symbols (generated by dpkg-gensymbols) contain lots of internal stuff. Do I remove this stuff manually, let it stay or fix upstream(how?)? | 13:24 |
| siretart | icf7: best is to fix it upstream. non exported functions and variables should be declared static | 13:25 |
| siretart | icf7: for more complicated cases you probably need to write a linker script | 13:25 |
| stefanlsd | icf7: not sure if its what u need, but i wrote this and it may help - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/stefanlsd/dpkg-gensymbols | 13:26 |
| * slytherin wonders why all the songs have suddenly started playing at more than normal speed >-( | 13:27 | |
| icf7 | siretart: these internal functions are scattered in a lot of helper files, therefore static would hide them from the other code files of the library too, wouldn't it? | 13:27 |
| slytherin | :-( | 13:27 |
| siretart | icf7: indeed. in that case, things get more complicated. | 13:28 |
| icf7 | stefanlsd: Thanks. I read parts of it, but I'm now going to read it in-depth. Sorry for my ignorance, I'm used to Java | 13:29 |
| stefanlsd | icf7: may need some work also. its still very much a draft... | 13:30 |
| sirex` | /tmp/php/php5-5.2.6/ext/zip/lib/zip_close.c:252: internal compiler error: in adjust_add_sorted_back_dep, at sched-deps.c:1886 | 13:37 |
| sirex` | Is this some thing wrong with code or this is something wrong with build system? | 13:38 |
| siretart | 'internal compiler error' is pretty clear, isn't it? | 13:40 |
| sirex` | siretart: no it isn't, actualy I don't understand this message. | 13:42 |
| sirex` | Does it means, that problem not with source, but with compiler? | 13:43 |
| siretart | the latter | 13:43 |
| siretart | err, yes | 13:43 |
| sirex` | Well, trying one more time, maybo this time it will finish succesfully. | 13:44 |
| icf7 | siretart: As far as I understand, using a linker script is pretty complicated and not common. Is there any other way? How do popular libraries solve this (Don't they have any helper function files?)? | 13:49 |
| siretart | icf7: careful planning when designing a shared library helps pretty much here | 13:50 |
| siretart | icf7: you could also experiment with the default visibility flag of gcc. set the default to 'not visible', and mark public and exported functions as such. | 13:51 |
| icf7 | siretart: Thanks, I'll try that | 13:52 |
| siretart | icf7: but this is again something that really should be done upstream, not in a debian package | 13:52 |
| icf7 | siretart: ok. Is there any chance to get a package with a symbol like stack_create accepted without waiting for upstream? It's a pretty new and small project, I suppose it could take weeks to integrate that | 13:54 |
| siretart | icf7: not without effords less than comparable to forking upstream, I'd say. | 13:56 |
| icf7 | siretart: Thanks, I'll take that into account | 13:58 |
| es | Anyone knows how to get the configure option used to build a deb? And what action dpkg-reconfigure do? | 14:16 |
| slytherin | es: You can download respective source package from repositories, extract the .diff.gz file and check debian/rules file for configure options. | 14:17 |
| slytherin | es: dpkg-reconfigure is not at all related to it. It helps you reconfigure the application already installed on your machine. | 14:18 |

| slytherin | es: That do I think you can find in the source package in postinst file. But since you are installing from source dpkg-reconfigure won't come into picture unless you explicitely call it. | 14:24 |
| es | slytherin: thanks, however after apt-get source <package> I still don't see where are stored the configure option used to build | 14:29 |

| slytherin | henux: it really depends on which are you want to contribute to. | 16:34 |
| henux | slytherin: i have no idea | 16:36 |
| henux | slytherin: im just looking for something | 16:36 |
| slytherin | henux: check the Contributing link in the topic. | 16:36 |
| * slytherin has to go. | 16:37 | |
| henux | so this crap is truly what you call a mentorship program? | 16:45 |
| jdong | oh that's a great attitude :) | 16:45 |
| azeem | henux: I'm sure you can pay for better programs | 16:45 |
| persia | Bother. slytherin left. | 16:45 |
| henux | in the web page there is a message explaining that everyone is given a mentor, then when i ask one you say "take this link, read it, knock yourself off, its fun, i gotta go, bye" | 16:46 |
| persia | Anyway, I'm not giving back jhove : it FTBFS because ant depends on "default-jre-headless | java1-runtime-headless | java2-runtime-headless", none of which is supplied by sun-java5-jdk, which is why it gets openjdk, and fails. | 16:46 |
| jdong | henux: umm... he took the time to answer your question, then had to leave for unrelated reasons. | 16:46 |
| jdong | the links he gave you help YOU figure out what area you'd like to contribute in | 16:47 |
| jdong | once you have a better idea of that, we can give you more applicable advice. | 16:47 |
| persia | henux: There is a mentoring program, to which you can sign up, and wait for a mentor to be assigned. This may take a fairly long time. | 16:47 |
| henux | okay then i will come back here later and we will see about what comes | 16:47 |
| persia | henux: On the other hand, if you're interested in something specific, jump right in, and ask questions here, and a variety of people will help you. | 16:48 |
| henux | i will ask when there is a specific interest | 16:48 |
| jdong | henux: look forward to that :). Thanks for your interest in contributing! | 16:49 |
| henux | i joined the channel in the hopes that somebody could have given me pointers, and this one did, and i will read it so we may perhaps discuss about this later on | 16:49 |

| bfiller | general packaging question for anyone: does debian/postinst script get passed any args that it can determine whether the package is being installed for the first time or upgraded? | 17:21 |
| bfiller | I know preinst gets these args, but does not appear for postinst | 17:21 |
| bfiller | http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-maintainerscripts.html talked about "configure" and "abort-remove", but not sure about these | 17:22 |
| persia | bfiller: Heaps of them. Best resource i know is http://women.debian.org/wiki/English/MaintainerScripts | 17:25 |
| bfiller | persia: great, thanks | 17:25 |
| persia | That has nice graphs and stuff, although is otherwise just a restatement of policy. | 17:25 |
| nxvl | huats: ping | 17:26 |
| geser | but it's probably easier to understand than the policy | 17:26 |
| huats | hey nxvl | 17:26 |
| huats | how are you ? | 17:26 |
| nxvl | good | 17:27 |
| nxvl | just come back home | 17:27 |
| huats | ok | 17:27 |
| huats | nxvl: regarding the mentoring reception meeting, any prefered time ? | 17:28 |
| huats | day ? | 17:28 |
| nxvl | i will prefer from Tue to Thu at 13:00 UTC | 17:28 |
| nxvl | actually from 13:00 | 17:29 |
| bfiller | persia: looks like from the flowchart that only "configure" is passed to postinst on both install and upgrade (assuming no errors) | 17:29 |
| persia | bfiller: That's a dangerous assumption, but yes, the common case. | 17:30 |
| huats | nxvl: ok | 17:30 |
| huats | (I'll do my best...) | 17:30 |
| bfiller | persia: so how does the postinst script tell if it's being run during an upgrade as opposed to an install? | 17:31 |
| nxvl | huats: \o/ | 17:31 |
| persia | bfiller: $2 | 17:32 |
| persia | (it even knows whether it's being upgraded or downgraded, and by how much) | 17:32 |
| bfiller | persia: ah, $2 is the previous package version or null? | 17:33 |
| persia | bfiller: It is always the previous package version: null simply indicates the absence of a previous package :) | 17:33 |
| bfiller | persia: excellent, thanks for the help | 17:33 |
| ScottK | norsetto: Since you've got amd64 and that seems to be where the issues are, would you mind sorting through Bug 257403 and seeing what we need to do to update it? Releasing with an old Flash is not a good plan. | 17:59 |

| norsetto | ScottK: I don't use flash myself, but what the guy is saying is that there is a lib missing in ia32-libs | 18:00 |
| directhex | rc2 is much much better | 18:00 |
| ScottK | norsetto: Right, but someone who understands this stuff and has amd64 needs to test it. I've got no amd64. | 18:00 |
| directhex | oh, is he saying lubcurl is missing? | 18:01 |
| directhex | because that's true | 18:01 |
| * directhex checks bug | 18:01 | |
| norsetto | ScottK: oh gosh, you want me to install something that I wouldn't touch with a pole 1 mt long? | 18:01 |
| ScottK | Just for testing. | 18:01 |
| ScottK | norsetto: We need someone with amd64 to do it. | 18:02 |
| norsetto | ScottK: I don't kno why \sh hasn't included that lib, and if that was on purpose | 18:02 |
| directhex | flash 10 definitely needs libcurl | 18:02 |

| ScottK | We'll see what he has to say then. | 18:02 |
| directhex | wait, hang on... it certainly USED to... | 18:04 |

| ScottK | norsetto: I have no idea what the right answer is, but I'm pretty sure you'll have a better shot than me and we (somehow) need to get this sorted before release. | 18:20 |
| norsetto | ScottK: it is required anyhow, ldd clearly shows it for the stock one | 18:21 |
| norsetto | ScottK: oh well, what would happen to include that in ia32-libs, beside yet another one that we 64 bit users have to live with? | 18:22 |
| norsetto | (for the sake of flash, of all things ....) | 18:22 |
| ScottK | I think it's better to add stuff and be sure than not. | 18:22 |
| norsetto | ScottK: right, so, I'd rather have \sh look into it since he did the last update, or at least talk with him before I can upload an updated ia32-libs with that myself | 18:25 |
| ScottK | OK. We just need to make sure we don't forget it before release. | 18:26 |

| fabrice_sp | Hi. I received an email saying that kdenlive didn't build correctly on hppa (http://launchpadlibrarian.net/18102379/buildlog_ubuntu-intrepid-hppa.kdenlive_0.5.svn20071228-0.0ubuntu2_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz). I think that's because missing packages, that don't built on hppa, but can someone confirm that? Thanks | 21:03 |
| persia | fabrice_sp: I think you want to port to kdelibs5-dev, as I don't think kdelibs4-dev works properly anymore, but I'm not much of a KDE person. | 21:05 |
| persia | fabrice_sp: I think the libmlt issue is hppa-only: you might see if you can figure out how to get that built for hppa. | 21:07 |
| ScottK | Actually kdelibs4-dev is still mostly around. | 21:07 |
| fabrice_sp | persia: this package build successfully on all arch, except hppa, so you think that it could be because of kdelibs4-dev? | 21:07 |
| fabrice_sp | I'll check anyway | 21:07 |
| persia | fabrice_sp: Not any more. If ScottK says it's around, then it's around. | 21:07 |
| persia | On the other hand, there's something broken for hppa for that package, which probably needs to be fixed. | 21:08 |
| ScottK | Since it's an installability problem it's almost certainly something didn't build on hppa. | 21:08 |
| fabrice_sp | Where can I check the package build status for hppa? I've not been able to find it in the source package page | 21:09 |
| fabrice_sp | (for the missing packages) | 21:10 |
| ScottK | fabrice_sp: kdelibs build for hppa: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdelibs/4:3.5.10-0ubuntu5/+build/714435 | 21:12 |
| ScottK | fabrice_sp: Do you have hppa hardware? | 21:12 |
| fabrice_sp | thanks ScottK: I'll check if kdelibs4c2a is there (if the build is ok, it should be the case) | 21:14 |
| ScottK | fabrice_sp: Check and see if it's actually installable or not. | 21:14 |
| fabrice_sp | ok | 21:14 |
| fabrice_sp | ScottK: The build is successful, and the package is listed in the build log. How do I check if it's installable or not? (I can't find hppa in the general repository) | 21:23 |
| ScottK | fabrice_sp: If you're on hppa, just install it. | 21:24 |
| fabrice_sp | ScottK: I'm on i386 (not even amd64 :-/ ). Should I install a VM for that? | 21:25 |
| ScottK | It's hard to test hppa installability without hppa. You might ask NCommander to check. IIRC he has access to hppa hardwar. | 21:29 |
| ScottK | e. | 21:29 |
| NCommander | ew, wait? | 21:29 |

| NCommander | damn you HP, you made me the victum of more work by granting my HPPA request | 21:29 |
| NCommander | What package do you need to test installability of on HPPA? | 21:30 |
| ScottK | kdelibs4c2a | 21:30 |
| fabrice_sp | NCommander: it's just a matter of checking that packages kdelibs4c2a, libopenexr-dev, libmlt++0.2.5 and libmlt0.2.5 | 21:31 |
| fabrice_sp | (according to build log of kdenlive: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/18102379/buildlog_ubuntu-intrepid-hppa.kdenlive_0.5.svn20071228-0.0ubuntu2_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz) | 21:31 |

| fabrice_sp | NCommander: Thanks for the test. As KDE seems to be uninstallable on hppa, I won't worry about that. | 21:39 |

| sebner | directhex: O_o enemy of getdeb? ^^ | 21:48 |
| NCommander | I think the day I go apt-get remove nethack, it will be a good thing | 21:48 |
| directhex | sebner, not per se, i just wanted a small focused repo. i don't really see getdeb as the right place for "major frameworks" | 21:50 |
| directhex | sebner, still, 8700 people can't be wrong... right? | 21:51 |
| sebner | directhex: ^^, sure but you also have normal apps (ok, mono related but nvm) | 21:51 |
| directhex | sebner, the only "app" app is tangerine, which is patched with some patches i wrote. they've been added to pkg-cli-apps svn now though, so i can start syncing the jaunty package once it exists | 21:52 |
| sebner | directhex: kk, \o/ sync \o/ | 21:52 |
| * sebner loves syncs ^^ | 21:53 | |
| ScottK | NCommander: You need some insure/ensure I think in there. | 21:53 |
| directhex | sebner, i've been working on making mono syncable for jaunty, which will be nice | 21:53 |
| * NCommander super-hugs didrocks | 21:53 | |

| NCommander | damn it | 21:53 |

| ScottK | NCommander: Also you need to fix glib2.0 on hppa is you want to live up to your claims. | 21:53 |
| ScottK | is/if | 21:53 |
| NCommander | You don't ask little things do you :-P | 21:54 |
| sebner | directhex: really? syncable? GREAT. mono and sync? I love you :D | 21:54 |
| directhex | sebner, there's one remaining "real" merge reason, which i'm working on with upstream | 21:54 |
| ScottK | NCommander: Other than that, I think it looks good. | 21:55 |
| directhex | sebner, the "symlinked doc dirs" one i want to drop - the disk space rise will be MORE than offset by the mono 2.0 package transition savings | 21:55 |
| sebner | directhex: \o/ \o/ \o/ | 21:55 |
| directhex | sebner, mono20transition should save 10-20 meg or so on the jaunty cd | 21:56 |
| sebner | directhex: sounds great :) /me uses trunk though ^^ | 21:57 |
| directhex | sebner, well i obviously can't help (or support) that | 21:57 |
| sebner | directhex: ^^, kk. But I really appreciate your work with mono(-related) stuff :) | 21:59 |
| directhex | sebner, meebey's the real brains, i'm just a contributor | 21:59 |
| directhex | sebner, but i like to think of myself as the force behind keeping mono on ubuntu in good shape | 22:00 |
| sebner | directhex: that's what I mean ;) | 22:00 |
| directhex | and i try where i can to make those improvements using "svn ci" in pkg-mono and pkg-cli-apps | 22:01 |
| * sebner hugs directhex :) | 22:02 | |

| radix | I wonder why I never had to do that | 23:33 |
| mathiaz | radix: so that whenever I build a source package .bzr .svn and CVS are not included. | 23:33 |
| persia | mathiaz: Most of that is hardcoded into the scripts anyway: you only need -i -I | 23:34 |

| mathiaz | persia: -k -> howc come ? | 23:35 |
| persia | mathiaz: -k is to sponsor an upload. If you need it normally, either your debian/changelog entry is wrong, or your key is misconfigured. | 23:36 |
| persia | It also *always* signs the packages, so if you have a mistake with your changelog entry, it signs the package anyway, without any warning. | 23:36 |
| mathiaz | persia: hm - I usually debuild -S -uc -us | 23:37 |
| persia | If, for some reason, your DEBEMAIL isn't set when you run dch, this may result in unexpected values in the package changelog. | 23:37 |
| mathiaz | persia: and then sbuild _sources.changes. | 23:37 |
| ajmitch | like persia@localhost.localdomain? :) | 23:37 |
| persia | mathiaz: How do you upload? | 23:37 |
| mathiaz | persia: via dput | 23:38 |
| persia | ajmitch: Well, that one got sponsored by someone, but yes :) | 23:38 |
| mathiaz | persia: dput local _source.changes. | 23:38 |
| persia | mathiaz: OK. When do the packages get signed? | 23:38 |
| mathiaz | persia: but true then I have to sign them. | 23:38 |
| mathiaz | persia: right - I sign the _sources.changes and dsc on a different machine. | 23:38 |
| slangasek | I set -k consistently; there's no reason I would not have my environment right when running dch, and it saves history completion hassle | 23:38 |
| persia | Right. If you're signing them separately from building source, -k is not only dangerous, but wrong. | 23:38 |
| persia | s/wrong/useless/ | 23:38 |
| persia | slangasek: Ah. I sometimes build source in chroots when the dependencies for debian/rules clean are onerous. | 23:39 |
| slangasek | persia: I frequently build source in chroots; my chroots mount /home :) | 23:39 |
| persia | My chroots mount home, but don't preserve my environment (so I lose DEBEMAIL, etc.). This is somewhat intentional, as I don't pass the environment preservation flag. | 23:40 |
| slangasek | oh, well, I don't preserve my environment, it's just re-sourced from ~ when chrooting | 23:41 |
| persia | Hrm. Most of my environment doesn't get resourced. Perhaps I'm keeping things in a different place. | 23:41 |
