| Tetracomm | https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/272210 | 03:56 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 272210 in ubuntu "Megatunix needs to be packaged and added to the repository." [Wishlist,Confirmed] | 03:56 |
| RAOF | Tetracomm: That's unlikely to see any action until after the Intrepid release. | 03:57 |
| Tetracomm | Why? | 03:57 |
| suicideducky | hello there, I am not sure if this is the right place to ask, but how would I go about helping out with MOTU activies / becomming a MOTU?? | 03:58 |
| wgrant | Tetracomm: FeatureFreeze was months ago. | 03:58 |
| Hobbsee | Tetracomm: because there's a release in under a month? | 03:58 |
| wgrant | suicideducky: The topic has a good link. | 03:58 |

| wgrant | Hobbsee: Shh, don't tell the users. | 03:58 |
| suicideducky | hahahaa thanks wgrant >.< | 03:58 |
| Hobbsee | wgrant: oh. my bad. | 03:59 |
| Tetracomm | I really want to see it packaged. | 03:59 |
| Tetracomm | Could anyone recommend any software that would help me to create a .deb package? | 04:00 |
| wgrant | There's no magic incantation that will do it. | 04:01 |
| RAOF | !packagingguide | 04:01 |
| ubottu | The packaging guide is at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/NewPackages for information on getting a package integrated into Ubuntu - Other developer resources are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment - See also !backports | 04:01 |
| RAOF | There's the software. It runs on your brain :) | 04:01 |
| Tetracomm | That takes too long. | 04:06 |
| Hobbsee | Tetracomm: which is precisely why things don't get put into the release, so late, when people are focussing on existing bugs. | 04:07 |
| Tetracomm | Ok. | 04:07 |
| Tetracomm | I really want to help, but that looks so complicated, | 04:09 |

| didrocks | morning :) | 07:21 |
| geser | Hi didrocks | 07:21 |
| IntuitiveNipple | I have an interesting packaging bug with xorg-server (hardy). A patch (21_glx_align_fixes) modifies ./configure.ac, *but* ./configure is not rebuilt, and ./configure isn't patched to match. This causes a FTBFS for the xdmx module, so that in turn was disabled (debian/rules ... --disable-dmx) as the 'fix' - the real fix would be to either patch ./configure or ship the package with the regenerated ./configure. How should this kind of issue | 07:46 |
| IntuitiveNipple | be dealt with? | 07:46 |
| StevenK | Also patch configure in the same patch by regenerating ./configure with the *same* autoconf version | 07:48 |
| IntuitiveNipple | StevenK: Thanks | 07:49 |
| directhex | regenerate configure, distribute as a patch. that's how the packages i work with do it | 07:49 |
| IntuitiveNipple | I thought that would be it, but it can get confusing, all the levels of indirection | 07:49 |
| IntuitiveNipple | 2nd question. In the package, it builds some dbus bits and includes <dbus/dbus.h> but libdbus-1-dev installs to /usr/include/dbus-1.0/dbus/dbus.h - do all the source-files get patched or is a symlink supposed to have been created in /usr/include/ by libdbus-1-dev ? | 07:55 |
| StevenK | Neither | 07:57 |
| StevenK | A -I flag should be added to gcc calls by autoconf | 07:58 |
| IntuitiveNipple | ahhh good point :0 | 07:59 |
| IntuitiveNipple | and finally... 3rd question. The xorg-server source package, as shipped contains a whole bunch of symlinks, obviously accidently put there by some previous packager (e.g. GL/mesa/main/stencil.c -> /home/david/debian/xorg/git/lib/mesa/src/mesa/main/stencil.c) - should they be removed? | 08:01 |
| persia | IntuitiveNipple: Nothing in base packages should either generate or depend on anything in /home, as I understand things. Cleaning that up is probably a good idea. | 08:14 |
| IntuitiveNipple | persia: yeah, that was my thought :) | 08:14 |
| Burgundavia | IntuitiveNipple: that is probably david nusinow, one of the main debian xorg people | 08:15 |
| persia | IntuitiveNipple: You'll be linking your git branch to a bug, and praising it's benefits in #ubuntu-x, right? | 08:15 |
| IntuitiveNipple | perisa: It *looks* like someone was experimenting, trying to fix the FTBFS for dmx - which is caused by the incorrect 21_glx_align_fix patch | 08:16 |
| IntuitiveNipple | Burgundavia: Yes, I thought that, having looked at changelog | 08:16 |
| IntuitiveNipple | persia: Will I? | 08:16 |
| IntuitiveNipple | #join #ubuntu-x | 08:17 |
| IntuitiveNipple | oops lol | 08:17 |
| persia | IntuitiveNipple: I hope so. | 08:17 |
| persia | IntuitiveNipple: Also, where did you stick your patch to get kvm compiling on lpia? I noticed it still FTBFS in the archives a couple days ago, and wanted to push that. | 08:17 |
| IntuitiveNipple | persia: you've lost me? what git branch?! I don't have the package git externally visible :) | 08:18 |
| IntuitiveNipple | persia: sheesh! Um, the source of kvm-74 in my PPA (one of the patches I think) | 08:18 |
| persia | IntuitiveNipple: You're not basing your xorg-server stuff off the ubuntu git tree? I'll go find it. | 08:18 |
| persia | Thanks. I'll see if I can extract it easily. | 08:18 |
| IntuitiveNipple | persia: let me look locally | 08:19 |
| persia | IntuitiveNipple: Thanks. | 08:19 |
| IntuitiveNipple | persia: 1:72+dfsg-0ubuntu1~ppa4h "Fix: add debian/rules build capability for lpia and ia64" | 08:19 |
| IntuitiveNipple | persia: Inherited by 1:74 of course | 08:20 |
| persia | Right. I'll try that against the current version in the archive. One of my lpia laptops strangely supports vmx, and I'll actually use it. | 08:21 |
| IntuitiveNipple | persia: If I recall correctly, I added "QEMU_EXE = qemu-system-x86_64" to each of the lpia and ia64 cases | 08:21 |
| persia | Looks like the git tree is git://git.debian.org/git/pkg-xorg/xserver/xorg-server : I'm not sure how the Ubuntu branch is stored. | 08:21 |
| persia | IntuitiveNipple: Hrm. lpia isn't 64-bit. I'll try that, and in the worst case, try shifting it to x86. | 08:22 |
| IntuitiveNipple | persia: oh, yeah. I saw the 'packaging' git reference but I've been working on the apt-get source package | 08:22 |
| IntuitiveNipple | persia: No, there are two cases... the statement is added into both | 08:22 |
| persia | Yeah, the apt-get source is a little out of date for X, as X moves pretty quick. | 08:22 |
| IntuitiveNipple | persia: It doesn't do what it suggests... hence my original confusion when it first came up | 08:22 |
| persia | Oh, so x86_64 doesn't actually mean x86_64? | 08:23 |
| IntuitiveNipple | persia: strangely... no lol - it is just, if I recall correctly, a build dir or something similarly transient | 08:23 |
| IntuitiveNipple | persia: The build-logs on my PPA will reveal how it is used | 08:24 |
| persia | heh. Right. Well, when we last talked about it, my only lpia kit didn't support vmx, but Intel seems to have lost sight of the "L" in lpia, so I've a testbed now. | 08:24 |
| persia | (well, it's still low-wattage, but it's dual-core with vmx, which doesn't strike me as trying to save every last joule) | 08:25 |
| StevenK | Power Intel Architecture! | 08:25 |
| IntuitiveNipple | persia: re xorg-server: hardy ships all the xdmx tools but not the module since it was FTBFS (the ./configure not patched issue), so I'm just fixing it so it will provide the xdmx module (1 or 2 other knock-on effects I'm chasing too). | 08:28 |
| persia | I don't suppose you could do that for intrepid? It's more likely to be easy to apply, and more likely to be beneficial to more people. | 08:28 |
| IntuitiveNipple | persia: It looks as if 1.5.1 (Intrepid) has it fixed | 08:31 |
| persia | Oh, cool. No worries then. | 08:31 |
| persia | Thanks for checking. | 08:31 |
| IntuitiveNipple | persia: at least, it has --enable-dmx in debian/rules and I assume it isn't FTBFS | 08:31 |
| persia | You'd have to check build logs to verify, but I think someone would notice. | 08:31 |
| IntuitiveNipple | persia: package xdmx is in universe | 08:32 |
| persia | Excellent then :) | 08:32 |
| IntuitiveNipple | I've been using the Intrepid package as a clue-stick to sort out the hardy 'mess' :) | 08:33 |
| IntuitiveNipple | persia: xdmx is allowing me to run 5 monitors on the laptop :p | 08:33 |
| persia | IntuitiveNipple: USB<->VGA ? | 08:37 |
| IntuitiveNipple | persia: DFT, VGA, s-video (projector), and xdmx to a dual-matrox 'twinview' | 08:38 |
| persia | And the rest of the dual-matrox is just a headless server? | 08:38 |
| IntuitiveNipple | persia: no, with xdmx the remote xserver becomes an extension of the local desktop | 08:39 |
| persia | Right, but I'm guessing the remote computer running the xserver also becomes effectively headless, doesn't it? | 08:40 |
| IntuitiveNipple | once i'd built the module and got the configuration sorted, I wanted to get the package to build too, so others can use it | 08:40 |
| persia | (because it's granted access to the xserver to the remote session) | 08:40 |
| IntuitiveNipple | persia: oh, I see what you mean... well, it seems there are several ways it can be done, both with the remote logged in, or logging in remotely. right now I've got 'dual-control' | 08:41 |
| persia | Ah, so the xserver provides access for both the remote box and a local session? | 08:41 |
| IntuitiveNipple | Until you mentioned it, I'd not really thought about it! I was just pleased when I finally got it to work :) | 08:44 |
| IntuitiveNipple | I'll write up a wiki article on it once I'm clear :) | 08:44 |
| persia | IntuitiveNipple: Thanks. Now you just have to find a minion who will mine your wiki for all the good bits :) | 08:47 |
| IntuitiveNipple | persia: It's called 'Google' :) | 08:49 |
| IntuitiveNipple | and, there's only 'good' bits on my wiki! | 08:49 |
| persia | IntuitiveNipple: Well, I'd say 80% : you move quickly enough that there's sure to be a fair bit of bitrot. | 08:50 |
| persia | And my only issue with Google is that it doesn't have the patience to push the patches back to Debian and upstream :) | 08:51 |
| IntuitiveNipple | it's only a matter of time :) | 08:52 |
| persia | heh. I suppose. | 08:53 |
| IntuitiveNipple | funny you should mention that, actually. with the thread on the -devel mailing list I was working out an AI-based upstream patch submitter... give it a couple of 'best practice' bugs to to follow and then it'll figure it out for new bugs that have Ubuntu patches | 08:54 |
| norsetto | \sh: around? | 08:55 |
| persia | Nifty. That would certainly solve some of the Ubuntu patch discussions, and probably be of inestimable value to you in not having to forward-port stuff. | 08:55 |
| volkris | How do I package a program that is distributed in multiple source files? | 09:30 |
| persia | volkris: In multiple source packages. | 09:31 |
| persia | For example, consider a game that has separate upstream releases for the server, the artwork, the engine, the module, and the sound server. | 09:32 |
| persia | This would be 5 different source packages, and probably 7-8 binary packages, depending on the contents of the source packages, and how they should be installed. | 09:32 |
| persia | In my example, you could then add new packages for other contributed scenarios or artwork, and it would still work. | 09:33 |
| volkris | can you think offhand of a package that does this? | 09:33 |
| persia | uqm, uqm-content, uqm-voices, and uqm-music. | 09:34 |
| volkris | I'll read up. Thanks. | 09:34 |
| persia | That's multiverse, but it's the package like that I've touched the most. | 09:34 |

| es | thanks I'm looking to those links | 11:20 |
| IntuitiveNipple | Do we have any xorg-server build experts ? | 11:29 |
| persia | They tend to live in #ubuntu-devel, xorg-server being fairly core. | 11:33 |
| volkris | In the package I'm working on I need to extract one tarball of makefiles and such, then another tarball of code that goes into the src/ subdirectory of the first. | 11:35 |
| volkris | I don't know that this is the situation persia had in mind when he said to distribute separate source pacakges | 11:35 |
| volkris | The result of the compilation is basically a single executable file, but I don't know how to handle .orig files and such | 11:36 |
| james_w | does anyone have a clue what the fix for the build problem in https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/271919 might be? | 11:36 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 271919 in firebird2.1 "Sync firebird2.1 2.1.1.17910-release.ds1-1from debian experimental" [Wishlist,New] | 11:36 |
| persia | volkris: Ah. I thought of separate sources that weren't so intertwined. No good suggestions for that : maybe a fiendishly compliex get-orig-source, or some sort of stacked tarball-in-tarball solution? | 11:37 |
| volkris | I figured some other package somewhere would have dealt with this matter before | 11:37 |
| volkris | I've packaged on gentoo pretty regularly, and they have ways of extracting to specific places in the source tree | 11:38 |
| volkris | Could repackaging end up being reasonable in this case? | 11:38 |
| RAOF | volkris: That sounds like the only option, really. | 11:39 |
| persia | Maybe, although I'd personally prefer to see layered tarball-in-tarball, as much as I generally dislike that format. repacking breaks md5sum verification against upstream. | 11:39 |
| RAOF | Something in source package format 3.0 might support you more, but nothing accepts it yet. | 11:39 |
| persia | RAOF: No. There remain many options, just none pretty. | 11:39 |
| volkris | is unpacking of tarball in tarball handled through get-orig-source? | 11:40 |
| persia | james_w: You might catch NCommander later : seems to be handy with the libtool change. | 11:40 |
| persia | volkris: No. get-orig-source would construct your tarball-in-tarball orig.tar.gz. | 11:40 |
| volkris | I'll look into it | 11:40 |
| persia | Then you need to add extra targets in debian/rules to unpack the tarballs in the right way, usually into a ./build/ directory defined in the diff.gz. | 11:41 |
| quadrispro | anyone on bug 275502? | 11:41 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 275502 in mail-notification "Make mail fetchers recommended instead of suggested" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/275502 | 11:41 |
| persia | volkris: Be prepared for someone to complain about tarball-in-tarball, but it's slightly less distasteful than repacking. | 11:41 |
| volkris | This is pretty specialized software for running particle accelerators, so I probably won't worry too much about distribution outside of the lab | 11:42 |
| persia | volkris: Perhaps, but I'll encourage you to share it : other labs might find it useful, and I'd guess that having a somewhat standard system would let you actually focus on the problem, rather than managing particle accellerator drivers. | 11:43 |
| persia | (plus I want to be able to say "Here's an Ubuntu disk. It gets used for lots of things. It can even run your particle accellerator") | 11:44 |
| volkris | ha. Well, PPA at least | 11:44 |
| persia | Well, PPA for now. Come back in December, and we'll get it in the distro properl. | 11:45 |

| siretart | jdong: I'm seriously considering to upload them to ubuntu right now | 15:33 |
| siretart | jdong: input welcome :) | 15:33 |
| jdong | siretart: you know, that would solve a lot of the grievances out there but what about the encumberance issues? | 15:34 |
| jdong | it would also resolve the medibuntu-ubuntu off-sync every time we do a ffmpeg update | 15:34 |
| siretart | jdong: I think it makes the medibuntu ffmpeg package obsolete | 15:35 |
| jdong | siretart: agreed. which would be a good thing for both teams | 15:36 |
| jdong | siretart: and right now we're already half-hypocritical shipping the mpeg4-ASP encoder on by default | 15:36 |
| jdong | and hell decoding of mpeg4 is already "encumbered" so honestly I think we should just ship it all... | 15:36 |
| jdong | the question is whether it'd go into restricted or main... | 15:36 |
| jdong | siretart: how well does it coexist with gstreamer and friends? | 15:38 |
| siretart | jdong: it would go to multiverse | 15:38 |
| siretart | jdong: as for gstreamer and friends: it conflict/replaces libavcodec51. | 15:39 |
| jdong | siretart: sounds reasonable | 15:39 |
| jdong | I think it'd be a good thing to have | 15:39 |
| jdong | and I don't think any problems with archive since we've already got implementations of ALL of those encoders in other packages in multiverse | 15:39 |
| siretart | exactly | 15:40 |
| jdong | yeah I'd say just do it | 15:41 |
| jdong | but given the mdz conversation in #u-d... I'd like to hear his response | 15:42 |

| slytherin | superm1: Have you checked latest comment on the bluez 4.x bug? LOL. | 17:35 |
| superm1 | slytherin, lets see. | 17:38 |
| iulian | Hi | 17:38 |
| superm1 | slytherin, well I would hypothesize that those segfaults are probably null pointer checks, but we'll have to wait for a backtrace | 17:40 |
| superm1 | the important part is whether these are "regressions" :) | 17:40 |
| superm1 | slytherin, would you be able to craft a patch to make tooltips on the icons possibly? | 17:41 |
| superm1 | i'm working on a patch to properly set input devices to trusted mode | 17:41 |
| slytherin | superm1: 1. I will be able to provide tooltips. I will have to check what is the current GTK+ requirement for bluez-gnome. If it >= 2.12 then our life is easier. | 17:46 |
| superm1 | slytherin, well we can easily bump the GTK requirement up if necessary | 17:47 |
| superm1 | slytherin, it's very highly unlikely we'll backport this since it only works with bluez 4.x | 17:47 |
| slytherin | superm1: Ideally shouldn't we ask upstream to fix the tooltip problem? | 17:48 |
| superm1 | slytherin, well we can fix it and submit the patch upstream | 17:50 |
| superm1 | slytherin, they've got very few developers, so it would be fixed a lot quicker that way | 17:50 |
| slytherin | superm1: Ok. Will do tomorrow. | 17:51 |
| superm1 | slytherin, okay great | 17:51 |
| slytherin | superm1: by the way, by latest comment I meant the one by Christoph Langner | 18:11 |

| nxvl | james_w: if you are trying to sponsor it, please don't, see my comment | 21:13 |
| nxvl | james_w: i don't want to have all of those packages i don't need in my system if i'm only using one of them | 21:13 |
| james_w | nxvl: thanks | 21:14 |
| nxvl | james_w: also i don't have that much experience with that package/tool but from the comments/report i get that you need at least one of them for the tool to work, but all of them is crazy | 21:14 |
| nxvl | thatfor it will be | instead of , if you want to make the change anyway | 21:15 |
| nxvl | i will suggest to talk to the DM better | 21:15 |
| geser | I use mail-notification but with mutt and I don't need either of those packages | 21:15 |
| ScottK | They are common, but I don't think they'd rise to needed except in unsual situations (which is the 'recommends' definition). | 21:16 |
| james_w | I get the impression the tool isn't very good at hinting that you could install other packages to get the functionality | 21:16 |
| james_w | Suggests is how the package should do that, but it helps if the program does as well | 21:17 |
| geser | I could understand to add m-n-evolution to recommends (as evo is the default mua), but I don't know about getlive and fetchyahoo (it would be for me easier to accepts something for googlemail) | 21:18 |
| james_w | I think gmail is still far smaller in overall usage | 21:18 |
| nxvl | geser: that's why using "m-n-evolution | getlive | fetchyahoo" will be better, by default it will grab m-n-evolution | 21:18 |
| nxvl | james_w: don;t bet | 21:19 |
| james_w | nxvl: but that doesn't bring any benefit over Suggests, so it's not worth it in my opinion | 21:19 |
| torkel | is it working with the current version of evo? | 21:20 |
| nxvl | james_w: actually there is some apt option to install suggest by default | 21:20 |
| nxvl | james_w: but yes, i agree with you on that | 21:20 |
| cody-somerville | Is there atleast one fetcher module thingie installed by default? | 21:21 |

| csilk | why does the wiki (packaging) not discuss what to do with all the extra files in /debian such as init.d.ex and all the manpage related files? | 23:45 |
| csilk | etc | 23:45 |
| nhandler_ | csilk: They are example files. If you need them, you rename them (remove the .ex suffix). If you don't need them, you just delete them. | 23:47 |
| csilk | nhandler_, I'm not 100% sure what they are to be honest | 23:48 |
| nhandler_ | csilk: For most basic packages, you can safely remove the files. What are you packaging? Or what type of application is it? | 23:50 |
| csilk | an app called megatunix, it's a software utility for measuring variious things within a combustion engine | 23:52 |
| csilk | such as air to fuel ratio | 23:52 |
| csilk | nhandler_, ^ | 23:53 |
| nhandler_ | csilk: You most likely won't need the example init script for this application. Give me a second to check what other example files there are | 23:54 |
| csilk | Thank you | 23:54 |
| nhandler_ | csilk: The only example files that you might want are the ones concerning the man page, the one for the watch file, and possibely the ones for the menu file and maintainer scripts. None of these are critical, and there are plenty of guides and wiki pages that outline how to create these files youself. | 23:58 |
