leleobhzthis bug affects me02:57
jmarsden|workSo they should be fine... as a test, check sudo ldconfig -v | grep xview  maybe... another issue... hmmm.  I'm not going to fix a bug live on IRC, I don't think :)02:58
leleobhzjmarsden|work: well, i dont think if the big problem is the bug02:58
leleobhzthis is a VERY old bug (from debian)02:59
leleobhzxview lib simply dont work in amd64 arch?02:59
jmarsden|workOK... can we sort out the linker issue first, maybe?  Did   sudo ldconfig -v | grep xview    give you any output?03:00
jmarsden|workI've never used them, but rmadison says: xviewg | 3.2p1.4-21.1ubuntu2 | intrepid/universe | amd6403:01
jmarsden|workSo they should be there and work.03:02
jmarsden|workIt was dropped from Debian back in 2005... but someone built and tested xviewg for Ubuntu more recently than that...03:05
leleobhzjmarsden|work: im searching and i think is a sw bug03:08

henrik-hw0i was thinking this is more glue than an actual binary.09:39
maxbWhere's it installed?09:39
henrik-hw0IIRC /usr/bin/09:39
maxbI think that probably counts as a program then09:41
maxb(I'm just guessing though)09:42
maxbIf it were true glue it would go in /usr/lib/packagename/09:42
henrik-hw0it's part of the packaging. i could easily change it.09:42
maxbWhy does it have a .session extension, is that significant?09:43
maxbIs this something to do with dbus?09:44

hyperairslytherin: what's up?13:28
slytherinhyperair: hi13:28
hyperairslytherin: parsing options?13:28
gesercan you pastebin your current code?13:28
slytheringeser: give me some time. as it contains too much company specific information. :-)13:30
slytherinhyperair: yes, command line options. I am writing a download script in python.13:30
jpdsslytherin: Are you using optparse?13:31
hyperairslytherin: what's the command you're calling?13:31
slytherinjpds: yes13:31
jpdsslytherin: Just a sec.13:32
jpdsslytherin: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-dev/ubuntu-dev-tools/trunk/annotate/head%3A/buildd - lines 56-58 is how I do it.13:33
slytherinjpds: let me take a look13:33
jpdsoptparse does the text wrapping for you.13:33
slytherinjpds: not working. I am not getting any line break in the help text when it is displayed. Here is how I am doing it - http://paste.ubuntu.com/111670/13:38
sorenslytherin: And what's the output?13:43
thekornslytherin, did I get it right, you would like to customize the output shown by yourscript --help?13:43
jpdsslytherin: Hmm, I see. Maybe it would be better to have two boolean options like (--kernel-abc and --kernel-xyz)? Or have an OptionGroup for kernels?13:45
slytherinthekorn: yes, as in the help message for --kernel should be like this13:46
slytherin"abc - download abc kernel"13:46
slytherin"xyz - download xyz kernel"13:46
thekornslytherin, in this case you need to subclass optparse.IndentedHelpFormatter and create the OptionParser with the 'formatter=YourFormatter' argument13:46
slytherinwow, all the suggested solutions looks like too much work to me. Why can't it simply parse \n in the help message and split the message. :-(13:47
slytherinsoren: the output looks like this13:48
slytherin  -k KERNEL, --kernel=KERNEL13:48
slytherin                        abc - download abc kernel xyz - download xyz13:48
slytherin                        kernel[default: xyz]13:48
sorenslytherin: Because OptionParser's help output was explicitly designed to handle line wrapping for you.13:48
slytherinhmm13:51
anakronHI all14:01
thekornslytherin, no, splitting the help message at '\n' is not hard, only like 5 lines of code and a bit copy and paste from the original formatter class14:14

Druidikaok, sorry for my bad english. it is not my preffered language.14:55
Druidikaok, ich made a warzone2100.deb but  from source the package looks completly different to the ubuntu ... beta4 Version. i would like to set in the .deb that warzone* have to be uninstalled before my .deb can installed... understood? is this possible?14:56
mok01Druidika: you can achieve that by clever use of the Conflicts: tag... of course it requires that your package has a different name14:57

loic-mkeeping them is a waste of space16:28

loic-mand since they're stuff that doesn't compress well, even compresing the iso doesn't give good results unless removing ECC16:29

Chris`Using the new Debian/Ubuntu copyright format, is it possible to do the following? Files: plotlib/*.f plotlib/examples/* plotlib/misc/*18:12
Chris`Copyright: Copyright 1996 Harold Youngren18:12
Chris`Or does each new dir/fileset require a new section?18:13
loic-mWhen apt-get source a package , it dl the Jaunty version, however in case the package is synced from Debian and Intrepid version=Jaunty version, it dl from the intrepid repos, is it correct?18:17
loic-msince the two source packages should eb identical, shouldn't they?18:17
ScottKIf the version and revision is the same, they are the same.18:22
ScottKChris`: mok0 seems to be our expert on that.  I'd ask him.18:23
Chris`ScottK: Thanks but he doesn't seem to be here :(18:23
ScottKChris`: He said he'd be back in a bit, so keep an eye out.18:24
Chris`ScottK: I sure will, thanks18:24
Chris`Also kinda off topic but regarding my PGP key, how do I remove an email address but keep it there at the same time, to show that it was once mine but not anymore? I've seen people who have a line through their address in seahorse, just like that I want it :).18:26
pochuloic-m: assuming you have deb-src lines for both intrepid and jaunty, if both have the same version, it won't matter as they are identical, right18:27
pochunot sure where it will take it from, probably jaunty18:27
pochuyou can also `apt-get source foo=1.2-0ubuntu1` if you want an older version18:28
pochuthere's a bug report in Debian to implement `apt-get source foo/intrepid`18:28
pochuas you can do with apt-get install18:28
loic-mpochu: it does take them from intrepid, I tried with ddd http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=ddd&searchon=names&suite=all&section=all18:35
loic-mpochu: thanks for the info too18:35
hyperairis anyone free for a review?18:36
hyperairhttp://revu.ubuntuwire.com/details.py?package=geanyvc18:36
loic-mpochu: I just wanted to know, in the future, if I could assume with those kind of packages (synced, no modif, same version stable/devel Ubuntu) i could just use what apt-source get me, instead of uncommenting all intrepid related deb-src lines in sources.list18:37
pochuloic-m: not sure I understand18:38
maxbloic-m: Packages are pooled across all distributions. If it's the same version in Intrepid and Jaunty, then all that differs is which index files it reads to get the actual package name. It's the same files on the server that get downloaded either way18:38
maxbloic-m: Also be aware of the command:   pull-lp-source ddd intrepid18:39
maxbChris`: You can revoke a PGP user id18:40
Chris`maxb: Do you have Scott Richie's key?18:40
loic-mmaxb: thanks a lot18:41
loic-mpochu: thanks, with your explanation and those of maxb I got the answer -  files on the server are the same18:41
* maxb runs gpg --search-key "Scott Ritchie"18:42
Chris`maxb: Don't worry I'll SS instead, I'll show you what I mean then18:42
maxbChris`: gpg has downloaded it for me already18:42
=== paul_ is now known as Elbrus
Chris`His ucdavies address... How is that done?18:43
maxbloic-m: If you look at the Ubuntu archive in a web browser, you can see, in particular, two important directories. dists/ contains all the per-distribution index files, pool/ contains *ALL* the packages18:43
maxbChris`: By revoking the user id18:44
Chris`maxb: How can I revoke my email then? :-/18:45
maxbgpg --edit-key yourkey18:46
maxbRun "help", and look at the uid and revuid commands18:46
Chris`maxb: Thanks a bunch :)18:46
maxbDon't forget to use the "save" command when happy18:46
maxbAfter revoking, send your updated key to a keyserver18:47
maxbOnce published into the wild, the revocation is permanent18:47
maxb(Though you could create a *new* user id using the same information)18:47
* Chris` is trying to be very cautious but doesn't understand it :(18:49
Chris`Command> revuid "Christopher Swift <Chris@Chrisswift.me.uk>"18:49
Chris`You must select at least one user ID.18:49
maxbChris`: Nothing is modified locally until you "save", so you can afford to just play with the commands18:50
Chris`maxb: Ah right... *phew*18:50
maxbChris`: You need to read the description for the "uid" command18:50
Chris`maxb: I've worked it out... FINALLY, thanks for all your assistance :)18:51

Laneyhyperair: How many things have you packaged now?!19:40
hyperairLaney: i don't know? but when i'm bored i just poke around and file a needs-packaging bug19:41
Laneyhmm19:41
Laneyhave you done other kinds of packaging work?19:41
hyperairLaney: lemme count.. codelite, sigx in ubuntu, bansheelyricsplugin in debian, vazaar (thinking of dropping that one, seems upstream abandoned it or sth), geanyvc and geanyprj19:41
hyperairother kinds of packaging work like how?19:42
hyperairi've done sync requests19:42
hyperairmerges... i haven't done one for ubuntu, but i do it all the time for the banshee-team PPA19:42
Laneymerges, bug fixes, qa19:42
hyperairbug fixes i've done a few for pm-utils, and one for evolution-data-server, as well as one for gnome-settings-daemon19:42
hyperairoh and one for pulseaudio (but that was related to pm-utils)19:42
hyperairoh one more bugfix for banshee, in which i backported a diff from svn19:43
hyperairwhat's qa?19:43
Laneyquality assurance - ftbfs, unmetdeps, nbs and the like19:44
hyperairwell i've handled ftbfs on my own packages which got uploaded -- codelite and sigx19:44
hyperairbut other than that no19:44
hyperairi'm interested to take a look though19:44
hyperairoh and i'm eyeing curlpp as my next target for revu, after i finish packaging every actively maintained geany plugin19:45
LaneyAs long as you feel you have the time to maintain all of these packages19:45
* pochu thinks we should at the very least limit REVU packages to one per packager19:46
hyperaireh no prob19:46
LaneyI've only ever packaged one thing from scratch tbh19:46
hyperairhahah19:48
maxbpochu: I see your point about not wanting REVU to get out of control, but that's rather a crude method, and a HUGE roadblock if you need to propose a set of related source packages19:51
pochumaxb: well, the really crude method is to close it down completely ;)19:52
ScottKpochu: You can just review one per packager.19:53
maxbSurely having multiple packages from a single person is no problem at all, *if* they are actively persuing them?19:53
pochuScottK: actually I don't do many reviews...19:54
LaneyI don't really have a problem with people who intend to take responsibility for their packages, and package things for a reason other than "it's there".19:54
pochumaxb: agreed. the question is how many people fall into that category19:54
LaneyBut you do need to be aware of the time you're asking your reviewers to invest19:54
* hyperair has a reason19:55
hyperairand it's not "it's there"19:55
Laneyhyperair: I wasn't targetting you, don't worry19:56
Laneyobviously I can't speak to your intentions19:56
loic-m* loic-m reason is "it's _not_ there" ;)19:56
loic-m(and I use it)19:57
hyperairLaney: just clarifying matters that's all =)19:57
hyperairmy reason for geany's plugins is because they look interesting, and i don't feel like littering my system with make install stuff, and since i've come up with packages i might as well submit it to ubuntu19:59
hyperaircodelite because it deserves the same love codeblocks got20:00
hyperairsigx and (soon) curlpp because i'm writing an app which is going to depend on those two20:00
ftahyperair, just added a comment for geanyprj20:03
loic-mWhen does it work when adding an .xpm icon to a package - do we have to check the license for the icon as well?20:04
Laneyof course20:04
hyperairfta: thanks. i just made the fix, i'll upload it soon20:04
loic-mif the icon is already in the package we provide (=shows in the program, but no .xpm file, what do we do?20:05
hyperairloic-m: if you want to create a package.menu file then you'll need a .xpm file20:06
hyperairloic-m: otherwise no need20:06
hyperairfta: uploaded.20:07
vemonhi. what kind of name should i give to a lib package when the name of the library is already postfixed with the version number (which i assume is probably identical to the so version)20:10
vemonone of the libs looks like this: liblv2dynparamhost1.so.1.0.020:11
vemoni'm only building a package for personal use to be uploaded to my PPA but would still like to get it right20:12
vemon(maybe later uploading it to revu)20:12
ftahyperair, i'm not sure how to give you a r+ now.. i don't know enough about REVU. maybe i need privileges.20:12

ftahyperair, i figured that out ;) please lower debhelper req for both and i'll advocate you again for both21:07

maxbDon't you always need a debian/compat, else you default to 1?21:26
maxbAnything else not being, uh, compatible :-)21:26
* maxb experiments21:26
hyperairdh_make sets it to 7 =\21:26
ftain jaunty, afaics, it's still 521:27
maxbYeah, without a debian/compat file, it tells me that "compatibility levels before 4 are deprecated", so I'm convinced it defaults to 121:27
maxbfta: Why do you think it defaults to 5?21:28
mok0hyperair: I'll take a look tomorrow... I am toast21:28
ftamaxb, because it creates the file for you with 5 in it if you don't provide one21:29
hyperairmok0: okay =)21:29
maxbfta: Oooops. I missed the fact that we were talking about cdbs driving debhelper, not debhelper itself21:30
maxb:-)21:30
ftaand if you're all fine with 5, why use more ? with more, debhelper does more work for you but if it's not needed, i don't see the point21:30

postalchrisWhat does it mean when REVU says, "This package could not be extracted; there's no browseable     directory for it on REVU. "21:55
