Kanamhey guys... maybe this is the place where I will find a answer to my question.11:00
KanamWe all know that Ubuntu plan to release a new version every 6 month. What happens if a the release date, some piece are not accomplished ?11:02
Kanamis the release rollouted ? or delayed ?11:02
directhexKanam, yes, it can be delayed11:05
directhexKanam, 6.04 was delayed until june, for example11:06
Kanamok directhex. I suppose it just a mater of "is the problem critical"11:14
KanamI looked for a place where i could find what kind of trouble should delay a release and what should be resolved post released by update11:15
Kanambut i did not find11:15
sorenKanam: It's not very easy to define, really.11:16
Kanamfor exemple if the translation is not over for a locale... I suppose that it's not release-critical and that it could be solved by update11:17
wgrantDapper wasn't delayed due to some problem, really.11:18
Kanamso why ?11:20
cjwatsonDapper's delay is pretty certain not to happen again; don't take it as a model11:20
cjwatsonit was delayed because we needed to get a new installer in place but we realised it was going to be impossible to do so in the time available11:21
Mithrandircjwatson: while I hope you're right.  Famous last words. :-)11:21
Mithrandirs/\./:/11:21
cjwatsonsure, but I don't want to encourage people into believing that we might delay releases, because once people believe that it becomes the truth11:22
ograKanam, translations are updated constantly even after release, features that are not ready by feature freeze get thrown out, the typical thing that would delay a release would be "app X wipes your HDD if you close a window" or some such11:22
cjwatsoneven then, it would only be if we found out about this so close to release that we weren't able to resolve it in time; and I would only expect that to result in a day or two of delay at most11:23
ograit has to be really critical to delay the whole thing, minor annoyances or missing feaures are not in the critical realm11:23
ograright11:23
ograit widnt delay by months :)11:23
ogra*wouldnt11:23
directhexeven crap like the "no nvidia drivers for most people" thing11:24

seb128cjwatson: not sure that the gtk directfb backend is really supposed to work in the current version, it's not maintained upstream and didn't build, I did some changes to get it build but I would not be surprised if there was other things required12:19
Mithrandirdirecthex: I logged in a couple of days ago12:19
seb128cjwatson: I didn't spend too much efforts on it because etoomuchtodo and it was not used in ubuntu12:19

cjwatsonseb128: I was going to figure out how to patch it up if nobody else had12:20
seb128cjwatson: right and they rewrote some code for offscreen rendering which broke the backend and nobody bothered updating the directfb code12:20
cjwatsonseb128: I'll be going on leave soon, so it'll probably have to wait until after that, though12:20

directhexpitti, ah, so not my cock-up then12:21
cjwatsonseb128: I'm only going to do the d-i GTK frontend if it's easy, and that means following Debian12:21
cjwatsonseb128: I've had requests for it12:21
seb128cjwatson: alright, the debian pkg-gnome had some discussion about that too12:21
cjwatsonseb128: surely this should be with debian-boot ...12:22
seb128cjwatson: the thing is that nobody is the gtk land is interested by maintaining the directfb backend so debian will need to find somebody wanting to do that if the installer keep relying on it12:22
cjwatsonthat's reasonable, yes12:22
cjwatsonmind you, there are outstanding patches in bugzilla to update the directfb backend12:22
seb128cjwatson: right, the discussion which happened on IRC was rather a "should it block the new version to go in experimental"12:22
cjwatsonso it would be a matter of actually doing something with those, I'd have thought?12:23
seb128could be12:23
seb128it still requires somebody wanting to spend time reviewing those12:23
seb128if somebody is interested in doing that great12:23
cjwatsonseb128: GTK d-i isn't a hugely high priority; I was just hoping that it would be a reasonably straightforward thing to pull in12:23
seb128I was just pointing that neither the ubuntu desktop team nor debian pkg-gnome has somebody interested in that right now12:24
cjwatsonbut it's not at the bottom of the list either12:24
cjwatsonseb128: there's a history of debian-boot helping out to get that stuff to work already12:24
seb128ok good12:24
cjwatsonI think there are two or three people who would be willing to get it fixed12:24
seb128I wanted to point that upstream didn't do the required changes to get the directfb backend working this cycle and that the patches we added are probably not totally correct12:25
seb128before you spent too much energy trying to figure why the d-i is not working12:25
seb128I guess debian will look at that after lenny12:25
cjwatsonseb128: yeah, I'd already figured that out from looking at bugzilla :)12:25

seb128pitti: I did retry on arches where is was require but retries have a low score16:14
seb128pitti: danke16:15
sorencjwatson: I'm working on a new upload as we speak anyway..16:31
cjwatsonsoren: ok, cool16:51
doko_how am I supposed to make new libtool and old automake-1.7/autconf2.13 work together? e.g. in rpm17:09
doko_or fontforge17:09
slangasekmdz: right; I don't know that kernel/udev can set the governor on its own yet, I was coming at the question from looking at a sponsorship bug and being confused by the package's current description17:30
mdzslangasek: I'm pretty certain it's possible to set the default governor in the kernel config.  not sure about loading the right modules17:31
slangasekmdz: it seems there are some chipsets that can't handle ondemand, and currently 'userspace' is the fallback we're using17:31
slangasekpitti: hal rfkill> no, sorry, I had a stack overflow; looking at it now18:05
pittislangasek: ah, hang on18:05
pittislangasek: upstream just responded that the patch shouldn't be needed at all any more, due to restructuring of the addon18:05
slangasekpitti: not needed any more, effective when?18:06
pittislangasek: so I'll update that package in my PPA in a bit (as soon as I fixed the FTBFS which occured on the jaunty buildds, but not on my local build)18:06
slangasek(I saw a bug follow-up from upstream that talked about a "new" plugin, which made it sound like it would sit alongside the existing one)18:06
pittislangasek: effective with the 0.5.11+git shapshot I uploaded to jaunty a few days back18:06
pittislangasek: so I think we should test 0.5.12rc1 first, and if that still gives problems, try my ported patch18:07
pittimeh, it *still* builds fine in an up-to-date jaunty chroot, WTH18:08
pittioh, buildds are already using -libc-dev 2.6.2818:08
pittitjaalton: do you still remember why hal needs 85_set_property_direct.patch? It's still not upstream18:10
slangasekpitti: so, this is fun; I upgraded hal to your ppa for kicks, and network-manager proceeded to give my default route to my openvpn tap0 device18:13
pittibah18:15
slangasekthe new version incorrectly believes tap0 is a wired ethernet, I guess?18:16
pittislangasek: seems like it; could you do an lshal output of the old and new version and diff?18:17
slangasekyeah, I'll have a look at that this evening18:17
slangasek(right now I have Thanksgiving Day preparations I should be working on)18:17
pittithanks18:17
pittioh, it's a holiday in the US?18:17
pittienjoy then!18:17

DktrKranzcjwatson, is autosync running correctly? It seems aria2 source package has not been autosynced.19:20
cjwatsonDktrKranz: "auto"19:20
cjwatsonit's run by hand daily ;-)19:21
cjwatsonDktrKranz: I'll run it now19:21
DktrKranzoh, I thought it was running automatically, thanks19:21
cjwatsonit's automatic in the sense that the commands are trivial compared to the work that's done19:22
cjwatsonbut it isn't cronned19:22
DktrKranzI understand, thanks ;)19:22
directhexpitti, thanks for syncing that. only one package left for transition phase 1 to be complete!19:23
directhexand rene has committed my OOo changes to ooo-build, which means that one should transition soon19:23
directhexwell, in debian. up to doko or calc after that19:24

bryceHoppingWombat: starting as ubuntero is probably a good idea20:22
HoppingWombatoh ...20:22
bryceHoppingWombat: then work your way towards getting MOTU20:22
brycethen after that you can go for core-dev if you like20:23
MithrandirHoppingWombat: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/GettingStarted might be a good starting point.20:23
HoppingWombatok ... after a bit of being a ubentero i go to contributing developer, right?20:23
HoppingWombatthen motu?20:23

LaneyCan we sync packages from debian-multimedia?21:41
RAOFLaney: IIRC the answer is "we can sync packages from anything with a reasonable repository structure".  Whether or not you /should/ ask to sync packages from debian-multimedia is a slightly different question :)21:45
cjwatsonwhat he said21:45
LaneyWell I've been pointed to there for a package update I did myself21:45
* directhex thirds the "AUDIT MARILLAT PACKAGES!" warning21:46
Laney:P21:47
RAOFDetails are often useful :).  What package, what was the update, does it exist in debian proper, etc.21:47
LaneyRAOF: Package is anyevent, new upstream version (not updated in Ubuntu since ever), not in Debian21:49
LaneyI don't really care for it that much, just saw that it needed an update on UEHS21:49
Laney...so I now feel obliged to follow through21:50
RAOFAh, the old "you touched it you maintain it" urge.21:52
* Laney nods21:53
LaneyThe packaging doesn't have any serious problems that I can see, and it's definitely not worse than what we currently have21:54

directhexso who wants to work some magic on LP #302955, and sign off phase 1 of the mono transition?22:38
ubottuLaunchpad bug 302955 in mono-tools "mono-tools 2.0 package" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/30295522:38
directhexit'll require that libmono-webbrowser0.5-cil be promoted (replacing the old libmono-mozilla0.2-cil package in main used for pre-2.0 versions)22:39
wgrantpitti: How can apport use the LP API? That needs auth for everything!22:41
directhexif some sexy beast were to upload that mono-tools package, then I could send a big friendly mail to ubuntu-devel and ubuntu-motu announcing phase 2 open & awaiting help. i really could. i have the technology!22:44
mathiazjames_w: hi - I'm going through your wiki page on distributed development22:49
james_whi mathiaz22:49
mathiazjames_w: in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DistributedDevelopment/Documentation/GettingTheSource22:49
mathiazjames_w: when you get the trunk branch why do you name the local branch after the name of the package?22:49
mathiazjames_w: ex: seccure22:50
bryceis anyone here running jaunty on an intel graphics system, and wouldn't mind testing out a new -intel driver build for me?22:50
mathiazjames_w: wouldn't it make more sense to call the branch ubuntu or jaunty?22:50
james_wmathiaz: it depends how you are storing them I guess22:51
james_wbut yes, with the way I have suggested it would make sense22:51
mathiazjames_w: hm - in your example dropping the last option (package name) would create a directory named after the release22:53
mathiazjames_w: which makes the most sense given the use of init-repo package name22:53
mathiazjames_w: that's the way I've structured my source directories.22:53
james_wmathiaz: the example was originally the launchpad one, where it would name it after the package22:53
james_wmathiaz: so specifying it is generally needed22:54
james_wmathiaz: you're free to organise things however you like of course22:54
mathiazjames_w: hm-right22:54
mathiazjames_w: agreed that I can organize whatever I want22:54
mathiazjames_w: however from a newbie perspective having standard practive helps to get started22:55
james_wmathiaz: I entirely agree, so I picked a suggestion that would work. Feel free to edit the page22:55
mathiazjames_w: and choosing a directory structure is not really an important choice to get started.22:55
mathiazjames_w: is the naming schema for LP already aggreed upon? (ie: lp:ubuntu/+trunk/seccure )22:56
james_wI think they are pretty firm on it22:57
wgrantThe spec says /ubuntu/+latest/openssh, but that it's still open for discussion.22:57
james_wthe spelling of +latest is certainly an open question22:57
mathiazjames_w: ok - just thinking about way to simplify the workflow22:58
james_weither way round you get conflicts sometimes22:58
james_wbut having the suite last probably gives you less22:58
james_whowever +latest isn't a normal name for a directory22:58
mathiazjames_w: could a checkout of an ubuntu branch do the create-repo automatically?22:58
james_wI suggested we extend bzr to let directory services suggest a target directory if the user doesn't specify one22:59
james_wthat would let us be creative22:59
mathiazjames_w: my point being: bzr co lp:~ubuntu/hardy/mysql-dfsg-5.0/ should get me started right away22:59
james_wmathiaz: it would have to be a higher level tool23:00
mathiazjames_w: it would create a bzr repo and do the upstream co there.23:00
james_wthat command will get you started right away, just not in the optimum way if you are going to have more than one branch.23:01
james_wand if a checkout of an ubuntu branch should create a shared repository, why not a checkout of any other branch?23:01
mathiazjames_w: agreed - I almost always created a repo before co upstream23:02
wgrantBecause bzr should do what I tell it, and not something else like creating a shared repository.23:02
james_wthat's one argument23:04
TheMusocjwatson: Thanks a lot, I was going to do that once gnome-session-canberra cleared binary new, but you beat me to it.23:04
mathiazwgrant: right. as james_w it may belong to higher level tool then.23:04
james_wthe higher level tool could be another bzr command of course23:05
* mathiaz nods23:05
james_wit was suggested that having an "easy" tool and an "advanced" one (standard bzr) might not be the best idea23:05
=== Kmos_ is now known as Kmos
RAOFpopey: Aha!  The tools which build a binary package will automatically create a file named "$PACKAGENAME_$VERSION_$ARCH.deb".  Nothing actually cares about the filename of a .deb.23:57
popeythanks23:58
popeyI'm glad the guy himself didn't venture into -motu to be honest23:59
popeybeing told he's doing it wrong isn't exactly friendly23:59
azeemI said he's doing /something/ wrong23:59
