ScottK-laptopsuperm1: How would you feel about bluez-gstreamer not getting pulled in automatically to my Kubuntu install?  Does it really need to be Recommends for everyone?03:01
ScottK-laptopsuperm1: Should the transitional package depend on bluetooth or bluez?03:20
ScottK-laptopI guess it doesn't matter so much since apparently openoffice.org needs gstreamer some how too.03:25

StevenKDoes anyone know where xml.dom.ext.reader went in Intrepid?03:51
ScottK-laptopIs that part of python-xml?03:51
ajmitchpossibly -oldxml03:52
ajmitchI don't think it03:52
StevenKpython-oldxml doesn't exist as a package03:52
ajmitchI don't think it's a separate package, been too long since I saw it03:52
ajmitchbut there were things moved about in the namespace03:53
StevenKThe files are installed, but I can't figure out how to import it03:53
StevenK/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/oldxml/_xmlplus/dom/ext/reader/__init__.py exists, that is03:54
StevenKAnd I can find no docs at all about how to import them now03:55

ScottK-laptopAs in I click on kdebluetooth and the nice icon in my try never arrives.06:13
ScottK-laptopsuperm1: Did you ever get anyone to do KDE testing (sorry I didn't get to it)?06:14
superm1ScottK-laptop, no one ever responded to the post to kubuntu-devel06:14
ScottK-laptopOK.  So what now.06:15
ScottK-laptopsuperm1: Not sure if Bug #279983 is related on just a coincidence.06:15

StevenKslangasek: Ahhh06:16
StevenKI think my noobishness with C++ is showing06:17
ScottK-laptopsuperm1: Also kdebluetooth now depends on a transitional package and so that needs fixing too.06:18
superm1ScottK-laptop, I would say that doesn't appear to be a coincidence06:18
ScottK-laptopOK.06:18
superm1ScottK-laptop, looking at that exception kdebluetooth will need some rev'ing06:18
superm1ScottK-laptop, do you guys have a liaison that normally operates on it?06:18
ScottK-laptopNo.06:18
ScottK-laptopTonio uploaded the last one06:19

superm1ScottK-laptop, well hopefully Tonio has a contact with upstream and they've got a 4.x patch ready, or at least in the pipe06:23

StevenKC++, I hate you06:36
ScottK-laptopsuperm1: Just so you know, uncoordinated networkmanager updating broke knetworkmanager for a while this cycle, so people may be a bit grumpy about this.06:38
superm1ScottK-laptop, well I wish someone would have at least responded to ubuntu-devel or kubuntu-devel ML about this.06:39
ScottK-laptopI didn't get time to test it.06:39
superm1ScottK-laptop, hopefully its resolvable  in a timely fashion06:40
ScottK-laptopI just found out when I upgraded tonight.06:40
slangasekScottK-laptop: your bluetooth was working previously in intrepid, then?  Part of the reason for this late update was that large swaths of bluetooth functionality were miserably broken with 3.x and the current kernel :/06:40
ScottK-laptopslangasek: It was (for file transfer to my phone).  I don't have an input device.06:40

Hobbseesiretart: no idea why gxine wasn't merged earlier - it's a straight merge from MoM.  Just dputting it to my PPA, if you end up playing a DVD, and want to test it.07:12
siretartHobbsee: I think it was simply because I didn't have the time and didn't get to it in the last merge window, and nobody else cared enough to do it anyways07:14
Hobbseesiretart: fair enough07:14
siretartHobbsee: I'd say if you consider the changes to be mainly bugfix, just go ahead and upload it to intrepid. that version is working fine for ages in debian07:14

morgsjames_w: thanks for all your help by the way :)16:06
james_wI think it's just the hulahop issue to crack then we can push this lot in16:06
morgsjames_w: I thought we needed a newer hulahop, but I had noted down the wrong version from debian. We have basically the same version, sugar-hulahop 0.4.1-1 is in intrepid and debian has python-hulahop 0.4.1-216:08
james_wyeah, I was just about to say that16:08
morgsjames_w: I had it failing to build in my PPA but I changed the deps from xulrunner-dev to xulrunner-1.9-dev and removed python-pyxpcom since that is in xulrunner-1.9 now, so it builds successfully in my PPA now16:08
james_wan alternative to bringing in python-hulahop would be to patch the activity to use the other package, and then do the transition in Jaunty16:09
james_wmorgs: which were you working on in a PPA?16:09
morgsjames_w: I uploaded the debian packages to my PPA to motivate for the feature freeze exception16:09
morgsActually we also have "hulahop" in intrepid, 0.4.1ubuntu316:10
james_w0.4-1ubuntu3, but yes16:10
morgswhich is the hardy package16:10
morgsso it should work for now, although we can fix it better in jaunty16:11
james_wcould you test whether the web activity works if you change python-hulahop->hulahop in its dependencies?16:11
james_wa use test I mean, it should build16:11
morgsOK, I'll do that - although probably in a few hours as I'll be out for a bit16:12

directhexdoes anyone have a convenient UK-based proxy server i can let an upstream use to help fix a problem on a region-locked website?16:52

Laneyhendrixski: You might backport both, though16:57
hendrixskiLaney: I'm looking at the dependancies, and trac 0.11 looks like it *should* work on Hardy16:59
hendrixskiI tried backporting something with pbuilder a year or so ago, and it didn't turn out so well, is there an easier method these days?17:00
Laneyhendrixski: There's a program "prevu"17:00
hendrixskinice.. and I assume https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Prevu is a decent manual to follow for it?17:02
Laneysure17:02
hendrixskiand prevu doesn't add extra packages to my current system, right? it's got like a chroot in it somewhere? the way pbuilder did?17:03
LaneyIt uses pbuilder behind the scenes17:03
hendrixskisweet17:03
hendrixskiand... This backport wouldn't ever make it into an Hardy repository? since it bumps up a version number and all that, right?17:05
jdongnot necessarily...17:06

porthosefor the first question no that was done in 0ubuntu217:58
* hendrixski sighs17:58
hendrixskiI backported trac-git with prevu, but that doesn't backport the dependancies apparently because apt-get doesn't find python-genshi >=5.017:59
hendrixskiso I backport python-genshi5.02 from intrepid18:00
porthosejames_w: for the second question, lintian was the root cause for this change, because prototype was a "convenance copy of code"18:01
hendrixskiand it's in the /var/cache/prevu/whatever directory with the other debs... but when I go to backport trac, which requires genshi, it's picking up the 4.* that's in Hardy18:01

superm1slytherin, it's provided "by" ods19:14
superm1but... bluez-gnome used to present it19:14
superm1now gnome-user-share is the one that presents it19:14
slytherinoh19:14
slytherinthen do we have gnome-user-share added in recommends of bluez-gnome?19:15
slytherinor probably o-d-s19:15
superm1well.. it recommends apache219:15
superm1which would mean apache2 on all machines19:15
slytherinLOL. why does gnome-user-share recommend apache2?19:15
superm1slytherin, it provides more sharing functionality via apache as well i guess19:16
superm1crevette probably knows more about it19:16
* slytherin checks19:16
superm1er actually it depends on apache2.  even better :)19:16
slytherinahh, webdav19:17
superm1slytherin, if you don't agree with any of the triaging that I did, feel free to revert the status of any of those bugs.  I know upstream wouldn't have touched most of them, and a lot of them were fixed with the 4.x stuff19:17
superm1so I tried to adjust as appropriately as I could19:18
slytherinsuperm1: I would rather discuss it first. Because I am not aware of all the packages related to bluez.19:18
superm1I don't mean to come stomping all over those bugs like I run the joint, but I was trying to be realistic about the debugging of some of those old traces and some of the features19:19
slytherinsuperm1: yes I can understand that19:21
superm1slytherin, but going forward on any bugs filed with the 4.x stack, I think if they are root caused/triaged, upstream will  be a lot more apt to help out with them etc19:23
superm1jcastro, did you end up talking to marcel at all about bluez bugs and forwarding them upstream?19:23
slytherinsuperm1: but this situation with file receiving is bad then. I am sure most of the users use file sharing aspect of bluetooth more. Of course of obex browsing works perfectly from nautilus then it is not an issue.19:23
slytherins/of obex browsing/if obex browsing19:23
superm1slytherin, yeah browsing does, but your machine will have to support sharing files then in a browsable fashion19:24
jcastrosuperm1: basically he wants all bugs to the mailing list19:24
jcastrosuperm1: that trac instance is used other people, but not him19:24
superm1jcastro, is there a good interface to have launchpad forward bugs to a mailing list?19:25
superm1or one in development at least?19:25
slytherinsuperm1: No I meant browsing remote device from my machine. I don't think that requires any configuration.19:25
jcastronope. :-/19:25
superm1jcastro, then what do you think will be the most ideal workflow for bugs that need to be forwarded?19:25
jcastrosuperm1: if he used the trac plugin we could have nice 2-way comment syncing and eventually forwarding, but he doesn't seem interested in having a bug tracker19:25
slytherinwhy not ask him to subscribe to bugs in bluez package. That package didn't exist in hardy so he will not receive mails for older release.19:26
jcastrosuperm1: I would mail the critical ones to the mailing list19:26
jcastroslytherin: he's not interested19:26
slytherinohh19:26
superm1jcastro, that's too bad.19:26
jcastrosuperm1: yeah, I would concentrate on the major bugs and patches19:27
jcastroI wouldn't expect anyone would be interested in mailing minor/wishlist bugs to a mailing list19:27
superm1jcastro, bluez traditionally doesn't see a lot of patches actually written and attached to the bugs.  I think apport crashes will be the most worthwhile sending then at least19:28
superm1I mean i've written a few patches that I sent to the mailing list myself, but I've not seen many people doing similar things19:28
slytherinsuperm1: in my opinion bluez on linux is still a mystery for most of the users, even the advanced ones.19:31
superm1slytherin, yeah, it's excessive use of dbus for everything I think adds a lot of confusion, and makes it difficult to root cause where problems actually lie19:32

james_wsiretart: ok, so, it's looking for the upstream version corresponding to the preceeding entry in debian/changelog. What do you think it should do if it can't find it?20:59
siretartissue a warning and skip that changelog entry?20:59
siretartin this particular case, 0.9.3 was prepared, but never uploaded20:59
james_wit could walk backwards through the versions until it finds the one that it has got20:59
james_wyeah, so you would expect to look back and try 0.9.2?21:00
siretartat least not uploaded to debian, but kept at some public_html on http://videolan.org/~xtophe...21:00
james_wsiretart: you would expect a warning?21:00
siretarthm, I expected it to just import 0.9.4 and don't fail because 0.9.3 is missing21:01
james_woh yeah, I agree21:01
siretartI wasn't aware that the debian/changelog in the to be imported source package mentions 0.9.3 at all, so no, I didn't really expect it to issue a warning21:02
james_wyou just said "issue a warning", and I was wondering if you would be surprised if it did it quietly21:02
siretarthowever it would be informative21:02
siretartno, I wouldn't be surprised if it did not do the warning21:02
superm1crevette, what's up?21:02
crevettehello superm121:02
siretartshall i tag the 0.9.2 revision with 0.9.3 as workaround?21:02
james_w"This package references an upstream version, 0.9.3, that is not in the ancestry of your branch. You may wish to import that version first"21:03
james_wsiretart: that would work, how about I come up with a fix you can test?21:04

superm1crevette, where were you at on gnome-user-share?  do things need to be adjusted still then?21:12
superm1crevette, and is there any way you can break off the apache requirement?  or does it break the experience by doing so21:12
james_wsiretart: ah, I was wrong again, it's not looking at the ancestry of the package that you are importing, it's looking at the changelog in the branch.21:12
james_wsiretart: the intent is that you maintain a debian branch and an ubuntu branch, and here you are trying to import a debian upload in to the ubuntu branch. The ancestry of the branch and package don't match, so it falls over.21:14
crevettesuperm1: I'm stuck on bluetooth reception now, it seems obex-data-server can't be started on my station21:15

siretartjames_w: right. If I revert to the debian branch (bzr pull -rtag:debian-0.9.2-1 . --overwrite), then the import succeeds21:18
james_wsiretart: so the way that this is supposed to work now is for you to maintain two branches and import debian uploads to the debian one, and then "bzr merge" to the ubuntu one, do your thing, and then use "bzr mark-uploaded" when you upload.21:20
siretartjames_w: okay, I see. I'll keep that in mind21:22

ajmitchdon't you love the messy dllmap stuff that has to be done?23:56
RAOFYeah.23:57
NCommanderjames_w, just to make sure we're on the same page, we're talking about the firefox.sh bug, right?23:57

james_wNCommander: I know, I saw you do it23:58
RAOFdirecthex: Yeah.  Once it's actually written, of course!23:58
directhexRAOF, at least ask for guidance23:59
