[03:04] <playya_> i asked chris lord if he will continue packaging o-hand stuff for ubuntu
[03:10] <persia> Thanks.
[03:17] <playya_> persia, contacts and dates might be a good replacement for evolution on small displays
[08:18]  * Hobbsee gets out and pushes this upload
[08:19] <Hobbsee> with a bit of luck, it might build on armel though now ;)
[08:24] <Hobbsee> bah.  it doesn't.
[09:34] <persia> playya_, I think MID uses contacts and dates already.
[12:13] <Hobbsee> ogra: now I see why you were so happy to give rss-glx away.
[12:13] <ogra> heh
[12:14] <ogra> well, i can take it back if you want 
[12:14] <Hobbsee> ogra: well, i've run into a few different build failures. By now, i'm hoping to see it through to completion - or file a removal bug, due to it being a pain in the neck :P
[12:15] <ogra> did it build on the standard arches ? 
[12:15] <Hobbsee> nope
[12:15] <ogra> bah
[12:16] <Hobbsee> first there was the libtool mess (which took a few incarnations, as i'd never done that before - at least i've learned something now!), then there was the freeglut borkage, and now there's the Wand breakage.
[12:17] <ogra> hmm, i only see the libtool stuff in the build log
[12:17]  * StevenK mumbes things about PPA
[12:17] <Hobbsee> well, you have to fix the libtool failure before the rest becomes obvious, right?  ;)
[12:17] <Hobbsee> if configure never runs, it never barfs.
[12:18] <ogra> right :)
[12:18] <Hobbsee> ;)
[12:18] <ogra> ah, you do it in a PPA
[12:18] <Hobbsee> well, I was, as i'd been lazy and not set up a build environment yet.
[12:18] <Hobbsee> and the ppas are sitting idle atm.
[12:18] <Hobbsee> or, almost idle.
[12:18] <ogra> yeah
[12:19] <ogra> well, as i said, if it gets you to upset, just dump them back on me 
[12:19] <Hobbsee> well, i've spent sufficient time on it now that I do want to get it fixed :P
[12:19] <Hobbsee> but, thanks
[12:20] <ogra> screensavers are never fun to package
[12:22] <Hobbsee> i touched that package before, without ill effects!
[12:23] <ogra> if you get bad dreams, just tell me :)
[12:57] <Hobbsee> ogra: pkg-config is never getting called in the configure, but adding PKG_CONFIG="/usr/bin/pkg-config" to the ./configure section in debian/rules does make it build.  What's an equivalent rune for configure.in, as i presume such a hack in debian/rules is a bad solution?
[13:14] <ogra> as long as you make it build with it 
[13:15] <ogra> i doubt there is a debian policy that forbids running pkg-config from debian/rules
[13:17] <StevenK> ogra: No, you need to specify pkg-config in the environment, configure doesn't go looking for it is the problem
[13:17] <ogra> which adding PKG_CONFIG="/usr/bin/pkg-config" apparently does
[13:19] <ogra> though i agreee it would probably be worth a look at pkg-config
[21:17] <ian_brasil> if i was to summarise treb it would be something like a file handler for displaying office files by converting them into pdf through oo running headless 
[21:17] <ian_brasil> ?
[23:23] <Hobbsee> ogra: a look at how?
