IntuitiveNipple | I need some assistance packaging a plug-in - two aspects: 1) existing package has no XPI so I've got sort that, and 2) how to correctly configure the package since it builds and installs binaries? | 07:49 |
---|---|---|
asac | IntuitiveNipple: usually a good thing is to build a .xpi | 09:48 |
asac | and then let the "xpi.mk" take care of the rest | 09:48 |
asac | most build systems should be able to produce such a xpi ... which should be good enough as an intermediate step | 09:49 |
IntuitiveNipple | asac: I was trying to figure that bit out. I'm working on bug #146324 | 09:49 |
ubottu | Launchpad bug 146324 in ubuntu "[needs-packaging] FreeWRL VRML/X3D Browser" [Wishlist,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/146324 | 09:49 |
IntuitiveNipple | Am I correct in thinking that the basics for getting the binaries into the correct locations is covered here: http://developer.mozilla.org/en/Bundles | 09:50 |
gnomefreak | im feeling alot better but dr=octor would like to keep me one more night to see if i have anymore problems (he said "just in case") | 10:23 |
asac_ | IntuitiveNipple: no. a bundle is something different | 10:48 |
asac_ | IntuitiveNipple: only thing you need to take care of is making a proper .xpi out of it | 10:48 |
asac_ | the rest will be done by xpi.mk | 10:48 |
asac_ | (no need for you to think about where and how to install that in the filesystem) | 10:48 |
asac_ | IntuitiveNipple: if you ask whether a xpi has that structure, then yes. but usually build systems of extensions that have binary components already do that | 10:49 |
IntuitiveNipple | asac: OK, really? The current package does the regular debian installation thing but I've tried to use the CDBS xpi options to replace the paths it had hard-coded in debian/rules for shared-library locations and sym-links | 10:50 |
asac_ | IntuitiveNipple: look at upstream source. if that has a build system which can produce .xpi ... dump the packaging and do it the _modern_ way | 10:51 |
asac_ | you can do it the old way, but thats discouraged :) | 10:52 |
IntuitiveNipple | asac: The upstream way is the 'old' way unfortunately, I'm replacing that with the wiki template XPI method, hence why I'm asking questions because bringing the two together is rather confusing | 10:53 |
asac_ | IntuitiveNipple: the upstream way is the old way? | 10:54 |
asac_ | if upstream is debian, then thats not upstream :) | 10:54 |
asac_ | but the debian way :-P | 10:54 |
IntuitiveNipple | no, upstream is the developers of the extension; they added debian packaging in 2006 | 10:55 |
IntuitiveNipple | so basically I just need an install.rdf then | 10:56 |
IntuitiveNipple | The package is a standalone VRML/X3D browser, with mozilla plugin interface. There's no visible 'extension' as such, in terms of chrome, etc. | 10:57 |
asac_ | oh you are not talking about an extension | 10:57 |
=== asac_ is now known as asac | ||
IntuitiveNipple | No, its 100% plug-in, but the report asked for a XPI package. I discovered the bug-report last night whilst looking for a decent VRML plug-in, and thought I'd try and get it sorted out while I'm at it | 10:59 |
asac | IntuitiveNipple: plugin != extension | 11:00 |
asac | if its a plugin then you dont need to do this xpi thing | 11:00 |
IntuitiveNipple | Hmmm. I did wonder, but I went by what Saša Bodiroža said in the report | 11:02 |
gnomefreak | asac: what are the chances of Mozilla adding support for import/export of junk settings. I will file bug for tbird 3 if you think it is at all possible | 11:02 |
asac | gnomefreak: what import/export format? | 11:02 |
asac | just from and to tbird? | 11:03 |
gnomefreak | any or a common one say in .csv (or whatever contact format. tbird,seamonkey, ect.. | 11:03 |
asac | gnomefreak: search bugzilla and if you are its not yet there file a wishlist bug | 11:04 |
asac | gnomefreak: also file a bug in LP and link it to the wishlist bug ;) | 11:04 |
gnomefreak | this way i can export it and inport it for when a reinstall or whatever | 11:04 |
gnomefreak | asac: will do ;) | 11:04 |
IntuitiveNipple | asac: Is there a standard template for installing plug-ins so they are available to all mozilla browsers, and/or alternatives ? | 11:06 |
gnomefreak | IIRC plugins are packaged as debian packages like any other normal package | 11:06 |
gnomefreak | example enigmail | 11:07 |
gnomefreak | if nonfree something like flashplugin set up | 11:08 |
gnomefreak | IntuitiveNipple: you can look at ubufox maybe to give you an idea | 11:08 |
IntuitiveNipple | gnomefreak: yeah, I was thinking of the flash example, because regardless of free/non-free, the linkages are going to be the same. | 11:09 |
IntuitiveNipple | As there was the XPI template, I was wondering if there was similar for a package, maybe a CDBS module | 11:10 |
gnomefreak | the problem with flash is it uses a script to grab the tarball (flash names thier tarballs for each release the same. so we have to change the md5sum of tarball or you get install failed | 11:10 |
gnomefreak | IntuitiveNipple: no plugins that i know of use XPI | 11:11 |
IntuitiveNipple | yeah, but the install-location / sym-links part will be the same for all 'well-behaved' plug-ins | 11:11 |
gnomefreak | this has got to suck :( "openoffice.org-evolution: Depends: openoffice.org-core (= 1:2.4.1-9ubuntu2)" | 11:12 |
gnomefreak | i use 3.0 | 11:12 |
IntuitiveNipple | Mozilla recommend 'Bundles' and give examples for plugins | 11:13 |
gnomefreak | yay 3.1 updates ;) | 11:13 |
gnomefreak | brb reboot | 11:15 |

lfaraone | Hey, is there any chance of getting xulrunner 1.9 in the repos? | 13:12 |
lfaraone | I have a package that requires that to function. | 13:12 |
james_w | lfaraone: xulrunner 1.9 is in the repos | 13:13 |
james_w | it's just called xulrunner-1.9, and doesn't build python-xpcom, which is the package you need to be >= 1.9 | 13:13 |
lfaraone | james_w: I'm asking upstream if their package can make do with 1.8, if not... | 13:14 |
james_w | the python-xpcom stuff is now shipped in the xulrunner-1.9 package, but isn't in the standard python path, so you may be able to get it work that way | 13:15 |
lfaraone | james_w: yeah, they _need_ xpcom to be >1.9 | 13:15 |
lfaraone | james_w: So, where exactly is it? | 13:15 |
james_w | where is what? | 13:16 |
lfaraone | james_w: wait, doesn't firefox3 require 1.9? | 13:16 |
lfaraone | james_w: I mean where in the system is python-xpcom 1.9 located, since it's not in PYTHONPATH. | 13:17 |
james_w | dpkg -L xulrunner-1.9 | grep xpcom | 13:17 |

fta2 | is assumes the final APPNAME is firefox | 16:34 |

asac | fta2: right. isnt our APPNAME firefox-3.1? | 16:36 |
fta2 | it is | 16:36 |
asac | fta2: also the commit didnt introduce that ... the part you are complaining about was there before | 16:37 |

asac | sebner: whats up? | 18:01 |
sebner | asac: managed mode? *confused* | 18:01 |

asac | of network-manager | 18:01 |
asac | or the email to ubuntu-devel i sent yesterday ;) | 18:01 |
sebner | asac: I just read something about ifupdown but my english isn't that perfect and I was lazy reading to end ^^ | 18:02 |
asac | sebner: then try README.Debian for the short version | 18:02 |
asac | :-P | 18:03 |
sebner | ^^ | 18:04 |
sebner | asac: also not that short ^^ | 18:11 |
asac | sebner: managed - managed by NM ... unmanaged - unmanaged by NM | 18:16 |
asac | ;) | 18:16 |
sebner | asac: how, the ultra short explanation :D thx :P | 18:16 |
sebner | asac: everytime dmks builds something (now nvidia) nm-applet disconnects and reconnts O_o | 18:19 |
asac | sebner: most likely a driver issue. wireless? | 18:20 |
sebner | asac: unfortunately | 18:20 |
asac | sebner: use your phone | 18:21 |
asac | :-P | 18:21 |
asac | those drivers appear to be much better than what we will ever achieve for wireless | 18:21 |
sebner | asac: well, intel wlan is well supported ;) | 18:22 |
asac | one might think | 18:22 |
asac | but it isnt | 18:22 |
sebner | because? | 18:22 |
asac | my opinion is that intel only gets worse | 18:22 |
asac | intel had its up when ipw3945 was nwe | 18:22 |
asac | since then things break more and more | 18:23 |
sebner | asac: this is my wlan card so I'm fine :P | 18:23 |
asac | because? ask intel, why they dont manage to fix their drivers over years | 18:23 |
asac | sebner: no. ip3945 is the old driver | 18:23 |
sebner | asac: iw | 18:23 |
asac | the new is iwl3 and iwl4xxxx | 18:23 |
asac | those are buggy as hell still | 18:23 |
asac | and dont even support proper WPA-EAP | 18:23 |
* sebner uses wep xD | 18:23 | |
asac | in hardy iwl3945 is pure luck to actually get a connection for some chipset revision | 18:24 |
asac | s | 18:24 |
* sebner never had problems | 18:24 | |
asac | lucky you | 18:24 |
* sebner bought a laptop with intel wlan because my old laptop had a broadcom card -.- | 18:24 | |
asac | i saw plenty of folks with iwl3945 and hardy that couldnt connect at public places | 18:24 |
asac | (at home usually works) | 18:24 |
* sebner is only at home | 18:25 | |
* sebner has no RL just VL :D | 18:26 | |
asac | that explains it ;) | 18:26 |
sebner | but what's the difference between home wlan and public wlan? | 18:26 |
asac | more APs on the same essid is a big thing | 18:29 |
asac | also much more noise and more devices that want to connect to your AP | 18:30 |
asac | all that causing flakiness | 18:30 |
sebner | I see | 18:31 |
sebner | asac: you are always talking about intel und hardy problems. what's with intrepid? | 18:31 |
asac | i think its better, but WPA-EAP is broken now | 18:32 |
asac | i mean completely broken ;) | 18:32 |
asac | e.g. real basic stuff like open and WPA-PSK works better (not sure whats up to WEP), while normal stuff like WPA-EAP which is used in companies and universities is broken | 18:33 |
sebner | pff, who uses wpa-eap :P I just knew wep, wpa, wap-psk and wpa2 ^^ | 18:33 |
asac | sebner: most important is universities ... appear to have a bunch of them | 18:33 |
asac | together with "hidden" ESSID ... which doesnt make things better for intel | 18:34 |
sebner | grr | 18:34 |
asac | i think business is important too. its just that not many use ubuntu in companies | 18:34 |
asac | and so the noise is much lower | 18:34 |
asac | which doesnt mean its less important | 18:34 |
sebner | asac: I always thought intel is Opensource fiendly and "good" at it | 18:34 |
asac | if someone goes to his boss and wants to convince him to use more ubuntu | 18:35 |
asac | we should support him that his thinkpad just works for his boss ;) | 18:35 |
sebner | thinkbad ^^ | 18:36 |
asac | sebner: well. i dont say they are not opensource friendly. but still there are details about their chips that only they know and nobody else can fix | 18:36 |
sebner | asac: and they don't fix or they f*** the driver up? | 18:36 |
asac | sebner: they have different priorities ... add features and dont fix the most basic bugs ;) | 18:36 |
asac | but thats an unqualified opinion | 18:37 |
sebner | ^^ | 18:37 |
asac | i have no clue whats going on and why the iwl drivers still dont work | 18:37 |
sebner | I trust you more than anybody else ;) | 18:37 |
asac | but i am sure its a problem on intel side ;) | 18:37 |
asac | priorities, incentives, customers that want other things fixed first | 18:37 |
asac | and so on :-D | 18:38 |
sebner | asac: so, what's now a good wlancardcompany? Apparently not intel and .. broadcom xD xD xD | 18:38 |
asac | not sure ;) | 18:39 |
asac | thats why i said: better skip wireless and go for 3g instead | 18:39 |
sebner | I have 16mbit flat at home. f*ck 3g :P | 18:39 |
asac | sebner: err. phone | 18:39 |
asac | sebner: some phones can do wifi | 18:40 |
asac | and then you can use your phone as a tunnel ;) | 18:40 |
sebner | asac: I'm even happy to have wlan (I'm really a non-geek with such stuff). but I'll maybe buy an ipod touch with wlan :P | 18:40 |

asac | crimsun: can you do the upload (but please do a quick test ;)) | 21:34 |
asac | ? | 21:34 |
crimsun | asac: I can only ask; remember that I'm no longer -dev. | 21:34 |
asac | oh ... thought just not core-dev | 21:34 |
crimsun | and it does work on amd64; I'm using it right now. | 21:35 |
fta | i had a branch but no history | 21:35 |
asac | crimsun: cool. | 21:35 |
asac | crimsun: if you have the branch ready, fta can also sponsor it :) | 21:35 |
crimsun | does it need a FF exception, or does it fall under this team? | 21:35 |
asac | i take the risk in case people complain about that | 21:35 |
asac | crimsun: i am quite sure we had a ffe for that and even if not it belongs here so is covered by the delegation they gave to us | 21:36 |
asac | crimsun: as i said. I take all the risk. not updating flash isnt a viable option :) and the risk is low ;) | 21:36 |
crimsun | ok, then I'll trawl the bugs and create a bzr branch for it. | 21:37 |

fta | crimsun, did you add something else ? or was it just a bump like mine? | 21:42 |
crimsun | asac: RC 2 works ok without any additional changes to intrepid's current nspluginwrapper | 21:42 |
crimsun | fta: I modified debian/control as well; we're now conflicting with libflashsupport | 21:42 |
asac | crimsun: right. but nspluginwrapper has stilla bunch of issues and even crashes/stale locks for windowless plugins | 21:43 |
asac | but at least upstream nspluginwrapper dev reappeared from MIA ;) ... maybe a bit late, but better than nothing | 21:43 |
crimsun | asac: right, I saw the patch(es) on upstream's mailing list | 21:43 |
asac | crimsun: oh you subscribed to the new mailing list ... cool | 21:43 |
fta | crimsun, how come you're no longer -dev? | 21:44 |
asac | but good to know that the whole instability we had didnt come from nspluginwrapper alone ;) | 21:44 |
crimsun | fta: timing (mainly, moving, new job, other constraints). I allowed them to expire. | 21:44 |
fta | crimsun, oh, ok i see. | 21:44 |
asac | crimsun: do you still do alsa work or did you have to take back on that too? | 21:45 |
fta | crimsun, if you don't mind, i'd like to do this flash upgrade. | 21:46 |
crimsun | asac: I still do work with Luke, but I no longer commit. So, not so much has changed. | 21:46 |
crimsun | fta: ok, then I'll just post the debdiff against the current intrepid source to the bug. | 21:46 |
fta | ok | 21:47 |
fta | crimsun, so you want a sponsor then? | 21:47 |

asac | yeah thats definitly one of the good news for intrepid | 21:50 |
crimsun | Luke has 1 more additional patch to push for pulseaudio that doesn't attempt to start pulseaudio while the gdm login sound is playing | 21:50 |
crimsun | err, sorry, not gdm login sound but session login sound | 21:51 |
fta | asac, reading that bug, people using my ppa have issues with nss/nspr (the soname thing), you really should decide.. | 21:52 |
asac | fta: yeah. i think the decision happened automatically. i have to put the shame hat on and say that its too late for that unfortunately | 21:53 |
asac | fta: we have to do a proper transition right at the beginning of jaunty | 21:54 |
asac | and let the synching/merging do the archive rebuild for us :) | 21:54 |
fta | so I will revert everything in my ppa :P | 21:54 |
asac | fta: yeah. please dont uncommit | 21:54 |
asac | revert | 21:54 |
asac | i want to resurrect that right after release | 21:54 |
fta | of course not | 21:54 |
asac | fta: are the .head/.dev branches again in line with our general procedure? | 21:55 |
asac | e.g. can we do one more .head -> .dev merge for final intrepid? (after you reverted the soname stuff of course)? | 21:55 |
fta | i think it's in sync, i'll check after the revert | 21:56 |
crimsun | fta: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/18346512/flashplugin-nonfree_10.0.12.10ubuntu1.debdiff | 21:58 |
fta | crimsun, reading.. | 22:00 |
fta | good, i'll sponsor it | 22:02 |
crimsun | fta: thanks | 22:03 |
fta | done | 22:06 |
asac | fta: thanks! | 22:11 |

asac | fta: cool the handbook made it on a blog ;) | 22:26 |
asac | great marketing | 22:26 |
* asac hugs himself ;) | 22:26 | |
asac | and great intelligence :) | 22:26 |
fta | lol | 22:27 |
* asac hugs fta | 22:27 | |
* fta hugs back | 22:27 | |
asac | next step: make the handbook accurate ;) | 22:27 |
asac | from what i see it refers to a not-existing bugzilla account :/ | 22:28 |
fta | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=941865 | 22:28 |
asac | yeah thats a known compiz bug | 22:30 |
asac | i will bug mvo about it | 22:30 |
asac | hmm he is (wisely) offline | 22:30 |
fta | for me, F11 != View / Full screen, this is annoying | 22:31 |
bdmurray | asac: I'd thought dereck would have notified you | 22:33 |
asac | bdmurray: well. not directly. maybe he just wasnt aware how much i suck at email :) | 22:37 |
asac | bdmurray: so all fine. anyway. if you need info for tomorrow on the triagershandbook for example, dont hesitate to ask :) | 22:38 |
asac | i will try to remebmer to look in -bugs tomorrow | 22:38 |
asac | but often hug days run rather silently, with people just grabbing thigns from wiki | 22:39 |
bdmurray | okay, great if I have any questions I'll ping you | 22:40 |
bdmurray | any news on the n-m bug? | 22:40 |
asac | bdmurray: yes. its fixed most likely | 22:40 |
asac | i am waiting for the commit to sink into our bzr mirror ;) | 22:40 |
asac | so tomorrow you probably could verify if its really gone | 22:40 |
bdmurray | ah, great! | 22:41 |
asac | bdmurray: http://svn.gnome.org/viewvc/NetworkManager/trunk/src/?view=log | 22:41 |
asac | 4156/7 | 22:41 |
bdmurray | was there an upstream bug or was it just irc communication? | 22:41 |
asac | are the commits from what i can tell | 22:41 |
asac | bdmurray: just irc | 22:42 |
asac | bdmurray: someone showed up who had debugged that in #nm | 22:42 |
asac | and dan williams nailed it down with his info | 22:42 |
asac | so quite fortunate :) | 22:42 |
asac | bdmurray: it was randomness due to access of freed/uninitialized memory | 22:43 |
asac | so the behaviour should have been at least a bit random ... though the chances for a positive outcome often are really low for this kind of bugs :) | 22:43 |
asac | today is a good day: keyfile plugin fixed, routing bug fixed ;) | 22:44 |
asac | dns list bug fix in applet :) | 22:44 |
bdmurray | great! | 22:45 |
fta | asac, why was that firefox.sh.in patch needed in the 1st place? i thought we had all the necessary links | 23:02 |
fta | http://blog.karlt.net/2008/10/font-selection-for-web-fonts-on-linux.html | 23:10 |
asac | fta: no :) ... it didnt serve arbitrary lknks | 23:10 |
asac | e.g. x-www-browser, sensible-browser | 23:10 |
asac | like what the bug said | 23:11 |
fta | ok, but then, that name=$(name%%-3.0) is wrong | 23:12 |
asac | fta: what is the problem we are getting from that? | 23:31 |
asac | that a link x-www-browser -> /usr/bin/firefox would be run as firefox-3.0? | 23:32 |
asac | fta: cool you fixed browser-branding. | 23:35 |
fta | name=$(name%%-3.0) just drops -3.0 from the name, so if i merge that, it will drop -3.1, then it will fail | 23:36 |
fta | providing we have the necessary links, there's no need to drop this even for 3.0 | 23:36 |
asac | hmm | 23:38 |
asac | well. the idea is that firefox gets started with firefox if the link points to the unversioned thing | 23:38 |
asac | its a requirement to fix the "restart" patch for real | 23:39 |
fta | yes | 23:39 |
asac | and also the system gconf integration patch | 23:39 |
asac | at best it could also rely on what was $0 | 23:39 |
asac | but maybe i am just confused here :) | 23:39 |
fta | fg | 23:54 |
fta | oops | 23:54 |
asac | where is the passphrase ;) | 23:56 |
fta | http://paste.ubuntu.com/55439/ | 23:57 |
