[01:32] Hi all...I've writting a couple of open-source java apps which I've released under Windows (using ant and then NSIS to build/package). I've recently moved across to Ubuntu and I'm finding it difficult to find a guide on going from building a Jar to creating a Deb which I believe is the equivalent of a Windows installer. Any ideas/suggestions/tutorials? Ideally I'd like to build the DEB (or whatever) and make that available [01:37] Bernmeister: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/Complete [01:39] porthose: Thanks. Does this also apply to Java though? It seems to me there's a big difference between compling C and makeing a package to just "wrapping up a jar file"... [01:42] Bermmeister: yes it will work for java, php, python and others [01:45] persia, https://edge.launchpad.net/fennec [01:47] Thanks. [01:49] fta, Thanks. [01:49] lool, ^^ [01:50] Anyone know BTS well? Is there a way to specify a block when filing a bug, or do I need to wait for a reply, and then send a message to control@b.d.o? [01:51] block is one command that you have to wait for the bug number on [01:51] Oh well. Thanks. [01:56] persia, it occurs that fennec now requires xulrunner 1.9.1, which is still not in ubuntu: see bug 274187 [01:56] Launchpad bug 274187 in ubuntu "FFe - firefox 3.1 and xulrunner 1.9.1 for intrepid/universe" [Wishlist,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/274187 [01:57] fta, The discussions I saw were more about Jaunty, for which I suspect there's no real question. === webtech_ is now known as webtech_m33 [06:38] Hello, is there something to add or someone to subscribe to this bug #281451 ?

[06:40] persia: oh, how are you ? [06:41] persia: I made a new sl-modem package btw [06:41] AnAnt, Cool. Did it get uploaded? Does it work? [06:42] Does it integrate with ALSA cleanly now? [06:42] persia: it works on mom's laptop, and some other guys laptop [06:42] persia: yes with ALSA [06:42] amd64? [06:42] persia: I didn't try with slusb/slamr [06:42] persia: well, it did work in amd64 before I think [06:42] persia: I don't have an amd64 to test [06:43] AnAnt, I can test. Is it in the archive? [06:43] persia: anyways, I sent to all bug reports in Debian & Ubuntu to give me feedback, no one replied except one guy, but he didn't close a bug, just said that it works fine with him [06:43] persia: mentors.debian.net [06:44] AnAnt, I'll give it a shot. I suspect it's too late for intrepid, but I can at least test, and make sure it gets into Jaunty. [06:44] jump on the rabbit [06:45] or with it, dunno [06:45] * persia likes to ride on the back while holding the antlers [06:48] * ScottK-laptop wonders if anyone from motu-release will be at UDS. [06:49] I hope so. I'd like to have a session about release planning. If not, maybe something can be scheduled for #ubuntu-meeting? [06:50] * ScottK-laptop isn't going. Dunno about the others. [06:50] Are you likely to be available via VoIP and IRC? [06:50] ScottK-laptop: But it's in the same country! [06:51] StevenK, That makes the flight *less* pleasant. [06:51] (but shorter) [06:51] How so? [06:51] Not really. California is almost like a country of it's own. [06:52] It's not a good time for me to take a week of vacation. [06:52] StevenK, seat size, pay for water, no external snacks, 6 hour runway delays, etc. The headlines for domestic air services in that country make for amusing reading. [06:52] persia: Or crying, if you happen to live there [06:53] persia: That's mainly a matter of picking the well run airlines (there are approximately two). [06:53] persia: I always get amazed by people coming up to the counter and saying "Hi! Do you have any space for me on the flight? No, okay, thanks!" [06:53] StevenK, That's how I prefer to fly. [06:54] persia: Why? [06:55] Actually the way the economy seems to be going there should be plenty of room the planes. [06:55] StevenK, Saves thought, and costs about half as much. I rarely spend more than about 2 hours in an airport, except when I have a reservation for some unknown reason. [06:55] persia, really it's half as much? [06:57] superm1, Depends on the airline, but often, as the seats would go unpaid otherwise, so you basically get charged the lowest possible fare. [06:57] persia: there's going to be some release-type sessions globally, i think. [06:57] Trick is not to try to fly on busy days. I like Tuesdays and Thursdays, personally. [06:58] Hobbsee, Yes, but that doesn't help. As MOTU, we need to have some plan, as this release was a mess, and everything feels like recovery, rather than trying to accomplish anything. [06:59] persia: that's true. Found out how to register sessions and such, yet? [07:00] Hobbsee, No idea. [07:00] * persia doesn't tend to be a session driver much anyway, just loud [07:03] Don't we normally find out that sessions exist about an hour before the event? [07:04] wgrant: i'm really hoping that *doesn't* happen this time, as that's hwo i got landed in 2 sessions that i had to be in, simultaneously, last time. [07:05] Hobbsee: At least with VoIP one can almost be in two places at once. [07:06] NCommander: Let me know when your test is done. [07:06] wgrant: heh [07:06] ScottK, done [07:07] NCommander: Good, bad, indifferent? [07:07] builds fine on amd64 [07:07] persia: do you think I should use this new dkms for sl-modem-source ? [07:07] OK. I'll upload it then. We'll see. [07:07] does dkms replace module-assistant? [07:08] NCommander: uploaded. Thanks. [07:08] AnAnt, For Ubuntu, it would make things simpler, because you wouldn't have to chase kernel ABIs. For Debian, I don't know. [07:08] debian doesn't have dkms yet [07:08] DKMS is similar but different than module-assistant [07:09] Right, then you'd need a fork, or some fancy trickery in debian/rules [07:09] tseliot: Hello, I responded you on bug #267217 [07:09] Launchpad bug 267217 in compiz "Compiz segmentation faults after Intrepid update" [Undecided,Invalid] https://launchpad.net/bugs/267217 [07:09] how do I use dkms ?

[11:50] slytherin: I read that in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FreezeExceptionProcess [11:51] AnAnt: motu-release is only for FFe and it doesn't need on, just simple sponsoring [11:51] AnAnt: is this new version then? [11:51] geser: this bug is a FFe [11:51] it's neither a new upstream version nor a new feature but just a bug fix [11:51] AnAnt: why it's a FFe?

[12:13] AnAnt: why hte versioned build depends? [12:13] debhelper you mean ? [12:13] oh, dh_icons [12:13] because dh_icons does not work for debhelper < 5.0.51 [12:13] yes [12:14] AnAnt: well, seeing as this is going into intrepid... [12:14] unless you want it to complain if you backport it to feisty, it's probably not needed. [12:15] (seeing as everything else is equal to, or greater than, that version anyway) [12:15] well, it won't hurt, does it ? [12:16] no, afaik, it's just a useless change. [12:17] Useless divergence from Debian should be avoided wherever possible : it makes it harder to merge the next version. [12:17] persia: it's ubuntu-native. [12:17] persia: he he, this is ubuntu native package. :-P [12:17] Oh, then it doesn't matter at all. [12:17] It's neither useful or useless, it's just irrelevant. [12:17] (especially because feisty goes EOL in a week or two) [12:18] persia: is 2.4~ a legit version anyway? [12:19] persia: i thought it had to have a number on the end, but it may not. [12:19] All by iteself? That's not ideal. [12:19] No, "iwin" is a perfectly valid version, it's just poor form. === fta_ is now known as fta [12:19] I'd recommend against using 2.4~ [12:19] apart from that, and my curiousity about whether a patch that includes a cuople of RTL bits will actually apply, it looks fine. [12:19] AnAnt: ^ [12:20] Hobbsee, It works fine. I've applied AnAnt's patches lots of times. [12:20] it does apply [12:20] persia: ah, cool :) [12:21] AnAnt: so, will you do the FFe if i sponsor this? :) [12:21] what FFe ? [12:21] sorry, SRU. https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/hardy/+source/shadow/+bug/238755 [12:21] I was told that this is a bug fix not an FFe [12:21] Launchpad bug 238755 in shadow "'Account has expired' message when adding a new user, after "passwd -l root"" [Undecided,Fix released] [12:21] no, i'm getting my terminologies confused.

[12:26] I don't have hardy anymore [12:26] AnAnt, Surely you can make a pbuilder or sbuild chroot though, right? [12:27] I think so [12:27] I can use pbuilder [12:27] And since it's a command line tool, you can probably test with pbuilder --login [12:28] hang on [12:28] persia: pm? [12:29] hmm [12:29] sudo pbuilder --login --distribution hardy [12:29] it says extracting base tarball [/var/cache/pbuilder/base.tgz] [12:29] AnAnt: that --distribution option is for creating chroot not for login [12:30] then what should I do ? [12:30] AnAnt: uploaded, without the debhelper change (it looks messy, and is irrelevant) [12:30] persia: indeed, you're right. [12:30] AnAnt: you can have multiple pbuilderrc and then use --configfile option for referring to a particular pbuilder chroot [12:31] oh, download hardy again [12:31] interesting. I don't think the janitor got the name from the changelog right. [12:31] wow, 60 uus bugs! an improvement! [12:33] Hobbsee: it's launchpad problem [12:33] hey dholbach!

But I am not going to file any more move to universe bugs till the ones already in archive admin queue get cleared. [12:39] Hobbsee: thanks anyways [12:39] slytherin: heh, fair enough. [12:39] slytherin: id' do it, but i don't have those powers. [12:40] slytherin: howeve,r if you bribed StevenK... [12:40] Hobbsee, I promised other members of the release team that the Java team wouldn't be pushing more stuff from multiverse to universe except to resolve cases where universe depends/recommends on multiverse for this cycle. [12:40] persia: ahh [12:40] persia: i hadn't seen that. [12:40] yes, and that too. [12:40] Hobbsee, We'll get right back on it for Jaunty, but wanted to reduce the noise and let the archive settle a bit for the release :) [12:41] There's still a few cases where it violates the ogre model that need sorting, and those are important, so not having more helps make that clear to the archive admins. [12:42] hey...that's not nice! [12:42] * Hobbsee doesn't want to install 70.5mb, just to sponsor a package... [12:42] Refuse? [12:43] StevenK: you've got a mirror haven't you? I'll assign you the bug :P [12:43] Hobbsee, Java? [12:43] Hobbsee: you could try building it in ppa or you can leave it to be handled by persia or geser [12:43] Which package is this? [12:43] persia: jhove [12:43] persia: yeah [12:43] slytherin: nah, it's even building the source for it [12:44] Oh, right. [12:44] i'll find a machine with a local mirror [12:44] * persia still has that bug open somewhere in the stack [12:45] StevenK: Hobbsee suggested that I bribe you for clearing up some move to universe bugs related to java apps/libs. So what would your prefer as bribe? [12:46] Standard sysadmin bribe [12:46] beer? [12:46] how do I dispatch it? :-) [12:47] Come to UDS [12:48] I would rather propose UDS in India. :-D [12:49] oh, 41.6 mb without recommends. that's not so bad. [12:50] UDS in India would be interesting, but I worry about bandwidth [12:51] persia: badnwidth is not a bug issue, security is the biggest one. [12:51] a UDS in Asia would be interesting [12:51] slytherin, Isn't that just a matter of hiring some guards? [12:51] persia: I haven't yet tried. :-) [12:52] jsgotangco, Indeed. Where do you think strikes the best balance of cost and bandwidth? [12:52] persia: you would be surprised how good bandwidth in some countries here are [12:53] jsgotangco, I doubt it. I used to be responsible for network operations for Asia-Pacific for a multinational :) [12:53] lol [12:53] That said, it's about balancing price and bandwidth. [12:53] true [12:53] at least i'm better off with my bandwidth than people in AU :-) [12:53] Somewhere like Laos is cheap, but the bandwidth is bad. Somewhere like Korea has *great* bandwidth, but it's not so cheap. [12:54] Vietnam is nice [12:54] persia: dude not Laos lol, that place is quite provincial [12:54] Like I said, the bandwidth is bad :) [12:54] Singapore would be nice [12:55] jsgotangco, rub it in why don't you. [12:55] Singapore could work. Good flight connectivity too. Direct to Sydney, Tokyo, Newark, LA, Frankfurt. [12:55] * jsgotangco hubs elkbuntu [12:55] persia: India is ideal place. There are various cities like Hyderabad, Bangalore, Pune, Delhi which would give you good bandwidth to price ratio. [12:56] persia: technology wise, you can't go wrong with either India or SG [12:56] slytherin, It's hard to fly there though, and I've never been satisfied with latency to India except with private fibre, but maybe that's just me. [12:57] persia: When did you fly here last time? Things have improved in last 2-3 years. [12:59] slytherin, At least that long ago. Are there now direct flights to most major international hubs? [13:00] yes, AFAIK. [13:01] OK. Works for me. [13:04] Ocotber/November is the ideal time. Because March/April is too hot. So we have one whole year for planning. :-) [13:06] persia: singapore wouldn't work. [13:07] Hobbsee, ? [13:07] persia: not unless you want the developers from europe to curl up and die. [13:07] persia: they'd never cope with the humidity [13:07] or, unless they'd never have to leave the hotel, or something [13:07] pity, as it's quite a beautiful place [13:07] That could work. Focused UDS. No city tours. [13:07] no dinner? [13:08] Hrm. Right. [13:08] Anyway, it's late here (not as late as there on your clock, but *much later on mine). [13:09] persia: before you go - just checking i haven't gone mad here - the xine-lib transition can't be dropped, just because the transitions "done" can it? [13:11] based on the descriptions of the packages, i can't see how that could possibly be right. [13:27] Hobbsee, I think we have to preserve it, but check with siretart. [13:27] persia: right. already pushed it back [13:27] done 4 bugs today, plus put a few on the release radar. i'm sure that's enough :P [13:28] Hobbsee: ~5-a-day~ [13:28] :P [13:29] sebner: :P [13:30] sebner: nah, i just marked one of the release radar bugs as one of the 5 a day :P [13:30] Hobbsee: fine then :P [13:39] How long after release do we wait before new packages can be submitted? [13:40] lfaraone: it can take 1-2 weeks or so until the repos for jaunty are created, but reviewing of new packages can start before [13:40] !revu > lfaraone [13:40] lfaraone, please see my private message [13:40] RainCT: Ok, I'm just wondering at what point can I start building. (I'm going to see if I can get gwibber in the repos, it's waay too late now of ourse) [13:43] lfaraone: That early in the cycle building on the previous release is generallly just fine. [14:03] does debian have any revu style setup? [14:03] mentors.debian.net [14:04] But it isn't quite as well "supported" for lack of a better term. [14:08] ok [14:21] persia, lool: early previews of fennec for intrepid & hardy are in my ppa, in case you care to give it a try. [14:24] no armel obviously [14:54] Does someone here know how debian_bundle.deb822.Sources works? [14:54] hey RainCT [14:55] what are you stuck with? [14:58] james_w: I want to create a Sources.bz2 file (I'm working on apt-get'able source repos for REVU) but I can't find no documentation on how to do it with python-debian. An example or something would be great, else I may just write a function for that myself (isn't that difficult after all). [14:59] hmm, I've only ever used it for reading them [15:00] they have a __str__ method defined [15:08] well, seems like it's easier to just write it myself [15:09] yeah [15:10] RainCT: Then you might send patches to Debian after .... [15:13] james_w: it's useful to get the required info for the Sources.bz2, though :) [15:14] ScottK-laptop: hm.. it seems rather read-only oriented, not sure where such a function would fit there [15:15] OK. Just a thought. [15:21] Should archived packages be apt-get'able? [15:27] * RainCT will take that for a no :P [15:28] I'm good with no. [15:29] RainCT: archives that means someone is already working on them. Don't think they should be apt-get'able. [15:31] slytherin: No. Archived means it's done being worked on. Usual reason is it's been uploaded and you should get it from the Ubuntu archive. [15:32] ScottK-laptop: right, so it is ok to exclude them from the apt-get'able archives on revu, right? [15:34] Yes. === doko_ is now known as doko [16:05] james_w: Is there something to read debian/control in debian_bundle? [16:05] RainCT: yeah [16:05] one moment please [16:10] RainCT: hmm, is it just a Deb822 object that should be used? [16:11] ah, PackageFile from debian_support can do it [16:14] RainCT: http://paste.ubuntu.com/56323/ <- fragment of some code I wrote that might help [16:15] james_w: thanks :) [16:15] making the BinaryPackage thing a dict might be more useful, I needed attributes [16:15] it's just to get the priority and the section, anyway [17:04] Hobbsee: ping [17:05] siretart: I'd like to get ride of column "isarchived" from Upload. Is there some special reason why it was added? [17:14] OO.o 3 final binaries are out [17:14] Is intrepid main going to stick to OO.o 2.4 or will it ship with 3.0? [17:20] james_w: seems like [x for x in ...PackageFile(...)] results in an exception if the control file has more than 2 Binary entries [17:20] raise ParseError(self.name, lineno, msg) [17:20] debian_bundle.debian_support.ParseError: expected package field [17:20] I didn't say this code was tested :-) [17:20] ethana2: I don't actually know, but I have a suspicion, that the answer is no. Intrepid is already in a feature freeze, and openoffice 3 is only in the experimental repos of debian [17:31] asac: I'd appreciate your input in bug 262191 [17:31] Launchpad bug 262191 in network-manager-vpnc "NM 0.7 Regression from 0.6.6 using VPNC plugin" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/262191 [17:39] james_w: OK, I've a fix. Should I send it to submit@bugs.debian.org or to some other place? [17:39] RainCT: what's the fix? [17:39] for debian_support? [17:40] james_w: Yes. if line == '\n': should be if line.strip(' ') == '\n': [17:40] Hobbsee: what should be for bug 238755 ? [17:40] Launchpad bug 238755 in shadow "'Account has expired' message when adding a new user, after "passwd -l root"" [Undecided,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/238755 [17:41] RainCT: yeah, submit@ please [18:03] RainCT: the idea of 'isarchived' was to have these uploads not on the main page. main use case: the package has been accepted into the archive [18:05] siretart: yea, but there's also SourcePackage.isinarchive which is used for the same [18:06] RainCT: the idea for that was something else. We had a cron job that regularily scanned for package versions in the archive. this way revu could tell if the version number indicated if that was an already accepted upload in ubuntu [18:09] siretart: Ah. Well, I still think it would be better to only have it once (and in the SourcePackage table), though. Thanks for the info :). [18:10] RainCT: right. ideally we'd probably had a special table with source packages an versions in the archive, initally filled via a script that parses Sources.gz and regularily updated via some .procmailrc [18:39]
