| ScottK | cjwatson: I've done it (accidentallly uploaded to Ubuntu). It was a package I meant for a PPA. | 00:09 |
|---|---|---|
| ScottK | And yes, I did change mine after that to require me to specify ubuntu as an upload target. | 00:09 |
| cjwatson | ScottK: fair enough. Of course it's a bug that PPAs use the same upload target scheme as Ubuntu. | 00:17 |
| cody-somerville | cjwatson, no it isn't | 00:24 |
| cody-somerville | cjwatson, may be undesirable but I wouldn't call it a bug | 00:25 |
| cody-somerville | cjwatson, It is possible for other distributions to have PPAs | 00:25 |
| persia | cody-somerville, Traditionally, responsible third-party repositories selected different series names for releases, to better identify the appropriate place for any given upload, as reflected in the changelog. | 00:28 |
| persia | To me, it would make more sense, assuming the bug was fixed, to do something where dput would upload to the location identified by the target in debian/changelog except when overridden. | 00:28 |
| cody-somerville | I disagree | 00:29 |
| persia | Unfortunately, with the current state of PPAs, this means an override is required for each PPA upload, which doesn't solve your use case. | 00:29 |
| persia | Why? | 00:29 |
| cody-somerville | persia, I think you'd find it logical for different repositories that are providing additional packages to have the same corresponding name for the targetted distroseries. | 00:30 |
| persia | Not at all, because I would expect the builds to differ because there are different packages therein. | 00:31 |
| cody-somerville | persia, so you expect end users to go hunting down all the third party repositories to find out what the new codename is for the new distroseries every six months? | 00:32 |
| persia | Doesn't affect end-users at all, and yes, I expect developers working on multiple projects to keep track of changes to upload targets in those projects to which they contribute. | 00:33 |
| cody-somerville | Hobbsee, I've already filed a bug and sent Debian an e-mail | 00:33 |
| cody-somerville | persia, how does it not affect end-users? | 00:33 |
| Hobbsee | cody-somerville: cool. just checking :) | 00:33 |
| persia | cody-somerville, Because end-users only need the URL of the repos they want: they don't care how it got there. | 00:33 |
| cody-somerville | persia, not true. You also need to know the distroseries name | 00:34 |
| persia | Further, differentiation by targets in the changelog is beneficial to end-users, because they can see points of differentiation in derivative repos. | 00:34 |
| cody-somerville | I agree with that point | 00:35 |
| persia | cody-somerville, Right. You need a string, which includes a URL and a name. And yes, I do expect users of multiple repositories to track them: otherwise we get back into the troubles we saw when there was a wealth of advertised third-party repos about 5 years ago. | 00:36 |
| cjwatson | cody-somerville: I'm not sure how my statement conflicts with the possibility of other distributions having PPAs | 00:37 |
| cody-somerville | persia, so, what would you suggest for distroseries names for PPAs? | 00:37 |
| cody-somerville | cody-somerville-hardy, cody-somerville-intrepid? | 00:37 |
| ScottK-desktop | Even if it was jaunty-ppa it'd be fine. | 00:37 |
| cjwatson | cody-somerville: it's a bug because you can take a signed upload that somebody had intended for a PPA, and subvert their intent by uploading to Ubuntu | 00:37 |
| cody-somerville | ScottK-desktop, but then all the PPAs are the same | 00:38 |
| persia | I'd prefer something like jaunty-ppa | 00:38 |
| cjwatson | cody-somerville: without having to re-sign | 00:38 |
| ScottK-desktop | cody-somerville: Fine with me. They aren't the same distro as Ubuntu. | 00:38 |
| persia | cody-somerville, I don't care about differentiation between PPAs. I know that's being small-minded, but it's true. | 00:38 |
| cjwatson | cody-somerville: the thing that goes at the top of debian/changelog has absolutely zip to do with what end users have to know about. | 00:38 |
| ScottK-desktop | +1 | 00:38 |
| persia | cjwatson, There's a workaround blocker for that, but it was true for a year or so. | 00:39 |
| cody-somerville | If we don't care about that then I'd strongly be in favour of changing it as well to have another pocket for PPA uploads | 00:39 |
| cjwatson | persia: right, but people might well still publish the signed object somewhere without realising the problem | 00:39 |
| cjwatson | e.g. for review | 00:39 |
| persia | Ah. That would indeed be dangerous. | 00:39 |
| cody-somerville | right... how *do* we prevent a third-party someone taking a package in a PPA of a developer and reuploading it to Ubuntu? | 00:40 |
| cjwatson | by making the thing at the top of debian/changelog different, as I said a page back | 00:41 |
| cjwatson | i.e. the upload target | 00:41 |
| cody-somerville | right, but its currently the same for PPA and Ubuntu, no? | 00:42 |
| persia | cody-somerville, Which is the bug. | 00:44 |
| cjwatson | as I've been saying | 00:44 |
| cody-somerville | Scary. | 00:44 |
| cody-somerville | Hobbsee, so I'll change it back to Ubuntu | 00:51 |
| * ScottK-desktop comes back to the conversation and turns around in a circle. | 00:51 | |
| cody-somerville | ScottK-desktop, or would ScottK-desktop like to sponsor? :) | 00:52 |
| * ScottK-desktop is desparately trying to get some $WORK done before leaving town for Christmas vacation | 00:53 | |
| ScottK-desktop | so no. | 00:53 |
| Hobbsee | cody-somerville: oh good :) | 00:53 |
| cody-somerville | Hobbsee, I don't think upstream is going to take the sftp transport patch because it introduces a dependency on bzr :P | 00:54 |
| cody-somerville | (or recommends, sorry) | 00:54 |
| Hobbsee | cody-somerville: that's a point. Although they might for the sake of compatibility, but bump bzr to suggests ;) | 00:55 |
| persia | Why does sftp require bzr? | 00:55 |
| cody-somerville | persia, because I use the bzrlib.transport module | 00:58 |
| cody-somerville | Hobbsee, It is a suggests, sorry | 00:59 |
| Hobbsee | oh. | 00:59 |
| Hobbsee | on that basis, they probably would. | 00:59 |
| Hobbsee | bzr's in debian | 01:00 |
| cody-somerville | Hobbsee, maybe they just haven't gotten around to it. I know they took one of my other fixes in my last upload. | 01:00 |
| Hobbsee | i saw that | 01:00 |
| avb | bzrlib.transport | 01:13 |
| avb | why not usual openssl? | 01:13 |
| cody-somerville | avb, if you'd like to rewrite it to use openssl directly, be my guest. | 01:18 |
| * cody-somerville will be back later. | 01:21 | |

| mrooney | bryce: I've added a workaround section to the description of bug 284408, if you could enhance or fix it in any way I would appreciate it, I'm not sure if everyone should be installing -ati or what. | 03:52 |

| bryce | mrooney: thanks, yes that looks good (on quick glance) | 04:00 |
| bryce | mrooney: and yes, people with problems using -fglrx should switch to -ati. -ati is a pretty decent driver nowadays | 04:01 |
| mrooney | bryce: okay, thanks, and those purges are all good? | 04:01 |
| bryce | mrooney: -radeonhd is another open source option people have, although we don't give it as much attention in ubuntu as -ati | 04:01 |
| bryce | mrooney: well, -radeon is just an alias for -ati so I'm not sure if that's required, but it doesn't hurt | 04:02 |
| bryce | mrooney: also I'm not certain if they'd need to purge/reinstall mesa | 04:02 |
| bryce | fglrx has some glx bits that overwrite the corresponding files that -ati uses. Not sure whether that would get automatically cleaned up or not | 04:03 |
| mrooney | yeah I think that's why -ati is purged and then installed, although a reinstall might suffice | 04:03 |
| gnomefreak | bryce: are you working on X in Jaunty? | 04:14 |
| mrooney | bryce: okay, well thanks for your help! I figured once people started posting comments to remove your video card someone had better post a formal workaround and stop all the confusion | 04:14 |
| bryce | gnomefreak: hmm? | 04:15 |
| bryce | mrooney: heh, very true! | 04:15 |
| bryce | mrooney: it's much appreciated; I'm probably going to be scaling back the amount of attention I give to -fglrx bugs going forward, with the hope that community folks like yourself can assist other users with questions and so on | 04:16 |
| mrooney | bryce: yeah, -ati seems to be really shaping up! I am glad for this bug actually or I never would have found out :) | 04:16 |

| cody-somerville | jdstrand, thanks | 22:48 |
| jdstrand | cody-somerville: and fwiw, I think you made the right choice to keep default_main_host as is | 22:49 |
| jdstrand | people will likely have opinions on that one | 22:49 |
| * cody-somerville nods. | 22:50 | |

| slangasek | does anyone here have experience with editmoin? | 23:38 |
| slangasek | I don't seem to be able to get it working against wiki.u.c, it consistently gives me a permission error even after configuring it | 23:39 |
| nhandler | slangasek: I got it working | 23:40 |
| slangasek | is there a secret I'm missing? :) | 23:40 |
| nhandler | Did you get your MOIN_SESSION or w/e it is called? | 23:41 |
| * nhandler is pulling up the namme | 23:41 | |
| slangasek | I grabbed the value of the "MOIN_ID" cookie under the wiki.ubuntu.com domain out of firefox, and pasted the unquoted content of the cookie into .moin_ds | 23:41 |
| slangasek | .moin_ids, rather | 23:41 |
| slangasek | do I need to leave the quotes in, or am I supposed to be using MOIN_SESSION instead or something? | 23:42 |
| nhandler | So what does your .moin_ids file look like? | 23:42 |
| slangasek | https://wiki.ubuntu.com<tab>$cookie | 23:42 |
| slangasek | that's what I understood from the manpage, though the manpage seems to have mangled formatting | 23:42 |
| nhandler | And how are you going about editing the wiki page (or trying to) | 23:43 |
| slangasek | a variety of ways | 23:43 |
| slangasek | fwiw, I just found the answer: the file is called .moin_ids, but the cookie you need is MOIN_SESSION | 23:43 |
| slangasek | thanks :) | 23:43 |
| nhandler | slangasek: Sorry about that. I'm not on my ubuntu machine right now. | 23:44 |
| nhandler | Glad you got it working | 23:44 |
| slangasek | guess the manpage needs updating, then | 23:45 |
