Laney"# If the package does not have a packaging system and the patch is small, you can modify the source. It is an Ubuntu goal to keep diffs with Debian small and so if modifying the source makes a smaller diff than adding a patch system you should generally modify the source. " Oh really?00:34
nhandlerLaney: This caused a big discussion on the mailing lists a couple of months ago00:36
Laneymust have missed that one00:36
nhandlerI'll try and find it. One second00:36

Laneythanks00:38
slicerHi. Can someone start a rebuild of mumble-1.1.7-1? It failed on a number of platforms (basically everything but i386, amd64 and lpia) due to dependency errors, but I just got my hands on a powerpc machine and built it successfully in pbuilder.00:51
dolanorHAPPY 1234567890 everyone !!01:09
DktrKranzslicer, which ports do you want to give-back?01:12
slicerDktrKranz: Err.. Under the assumption "give-back" means "have the build daemons try it once more", all of them but i386, amd64 and lpia.01:12
DktrKranzslicer, give-back is exactly that01:13
slicerDktrKranz: If they still fail, I don't know what's wrong, as they complain about "libqt4-dev: Depends: xlibmesa-gl-dev but it is not going to be installed or libgl-dev", but the same build worked just now in a pbuilder on powerpc (which was the first arch that failed).01:14
DktrKranzgiven-back on failed ports, let's see what happens now01:14
slicerDktrKranz: Thanks :)01:14
DktrKranzyou're welcome01:14
DktrKranzjames_w, do you plan to process some NEW during your a-a duties? There are gnome-desktop-sharp2 binary NEW which I'd like to see in the archives soon.01:16
voriannellery: root-system is at 5.18.00-2.3 on debian if you want to look at your merge again01:17
Laneyvorian: What do you think to bug #306592? Do we want to make this change?01:19
ubottuLaunchpad bug 306592 in plasmoid-weather "plasmoid-weather displays incorrect temperature" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/30659201:19
Laney(iirc you are a kubuntu kinda guy)01:19
* vorian looks01:19
nelleryvorian: Must've just been uploaded, I'll update it01:19
nellerythanks01:19
vorianLaney: yes, BUT01:23
vorianit's now known as plasma-widget-weather01:24
ScottKslicer and DktrKranz: That's not going to work on ia64, sparc, or hppa.  Should be OK on powerpc though.01:24
voriannellery: no problem, I HATE it when that happens :)01:24
nhandlervorian: Should we invalidate the plasmoid-* bug reports and file them against plasma-widget-* ?01:24
ScottKnhandler: Just change the package.01:24
voriannhandler: well, we could just rename it01:25
vorianthere is a valid SRU update that can be used in the same bug report01:25
slicerScottK: Ok? Why won't it work on ia64, sparc and hppa?01:25
nhandlerscottk: That is what I meant.01:25
Laneyit's not a valid SRU debdiff01:26
ScottKBecause the qt4-x11 version is older than the -dev package (which is built on 1386)01:26
LaneyHe's done it as a backport01:26
ScottKUntil yesterday mesa was broken on all those archs.01:26
ScottKI'm working on getting them rebuilt, but it needs doing in a certain order.01:26
vorianScottK: which ones have the base-stack done?01:27
ScottKarmel and lpia are fully up to date.01:27
* vorian checks recent uploads01:27
slicerScottK: Aha :) That explains why my pbuilder worked, that was updated less than an hour ago. And I guess you fixed powerpc already?01:27
ScottKYes01:27
ScottKpower pc has all the central node packages built for KDE.01:27
ScottKMany of the leaf packages are still un queue to get rebult.01:28
vorianScottK: can you press this button then https://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/soprano/2.2.1+dfsg-0ubuntu1/+build/86651101:28
ScottKqt4-x11 on sparc is caught in some kind of soyuz induced groundhog day situation on artigas (just builds it over and over).01:28
vorian:)01:28
ScottKLooking01:29
ScottKmesa is built now on ia64 and I think qt4-x11.01:29
ScottKIt's a mess.01:29
ScottKvorian: Did librdf and mysql get built and did they finish before the last publisher run?01:30
slicerScottK: Would it be possible to have the builders postpone building a package if something it Build-Depends: on is already in the build queue (or otherwise "out of date")?01:33
vorianScottK: both are fully built on all archs01:33
ScottKvorian: Mashed the button.01:34
vorianexcellent01:34
ScottKslicer: If a build-dep is missing, it will go into a dep wait status.01:34
ScottKslicer: but if the build-dep is uninstallable (as is the case here - the -dev package is the build-dep and its version mismatches with the arch specific main package) it fails the build.01:35
ScottKSo I think this is a bug.01:35
ScottKOthers consider it a feature, I'm not quite sure why.01:36
slicerScottK: Ah, ok. Because when a build fails on an arch I don't have access too, I feel I'm on really thin ice when it comes to figuring out why it failed.01:36
ScottKFor uninstallable build-dep like this one you can look and see when it's caught up and then ask to have it tried again.01:37
ScottKIf it fails in the middle of compiling, that's different.01:37
Laneyasomething: Lintian error on your quick-lounge-applet update: quick-lounge-applet source: build-depends-on-x-metapackage build-depends: xorg-dev01:37
ScottKslicer: If you look in the kubuntu-devel ML archive, you'll see a couple of recent mails from me on this.01:37
maxbqt4-x11 on artigas looks like it's succeeded this time :-)01:38
slicerScottK: Ok. Thanks for clearing this up :)01:38
ScottKmaxb: Cycled back to needs building.01:40
ScottKWait, nevermind01:40
ScottKmaxb: Sure enough.  Third time's the charm I guess.01:41
ScottKvorian and slicer: Now the trick for sparc then is that the publisher runs at 3 minutes after the hour.  Sometime shortly after that, the package should be available to build against.01:42
vorianfantastico01:43
vorian:)01:43
vorianLaney: i went ahead and adjusted the package name/version to get it into jaunty01:46
Laneyvorian: That's cool, nice one01:46
ScottKslicer and vorian: Also remember that if you do a retry and it fails, the person that uploaded it gets mail in their inbox.  Don't blindly retry stuff you didn't upload.01:47
lidaobingis sistpoty here? can you help recheck http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/p/fqterm, thanks01:47
vorianScottK: i uploaded soprano01:47
vorianplus we'll need it for other goodness to build01:48
ScottKvorian: You packaged it.  Your sponsor uploaded it.  They'll get mail too.01:48
vorianah, yes01:48
ScottKBut that was just a general comment and we aren't blindly retrying it.  You checked that the needed things were built.01:48
lidaobingHello, who can help review http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/p/fqterm ? thanks.01:51
vorianlidaobing: what's it do?01:51
lidaobingvorian, a BBS client01:51
lidaobingvorian, BBS is still widely used in Mainland China, Taiwan and other places.01:52
lidaobingvorian, for example, ptt.cc has more than 100k people online (at the same time).01:52
vorianyowzer01:53
ScottKpower pc is down to just over 200 binaries out of date.  It was almost 500 two days ago.01:54
lidaobingvorian, and ptt.cc does not belongs to any company, it is maintained by several students.01:54
maxbScottK: where do those numbers come from, ooi? (people.ubuntu.com/~ubuntu-archive/testing-ports/ says 355 main 1 restricted 364 universe 26 multiverse)01:57
vorianlidaobing: i see no "credits" file01:57
ScottKhttp://people.ubuntu.com/~ubuntu-archive/testing-ports/jaunty_outdate.html at the bottom.01:57
ScottKmaxb: ^^^01:58
vorianlidaobing: nevermind01:58
lidaobingvorian, in res/credits, and it will be installed to the same directory with copyright after install :-)01:58
vorianlidaobing: don't you think it would be better to just add the authours to the debian/copyright?01:59
vorianauthors, even01:59
maxboh,right. The script generating the _all.txt variant must not be cronned as often01:59
lidaobingvorian, I don't think credits is not copyright holder02:01
lidaobingvorian, it's like "THANKS" file02:01
lidaobingvorian, I don't think credits IS copyright holder02:01
lidaobingvorian, some of them update the po file (many package does not add translator to copyright file)02:02
voriani didn't say contributors02:02
vorianthe credits file lists the authors02:02
lidaobingvorian, no the fqterm said fqterm is copyright by fqterm development group, not individual authors02:03
lidaobingvorian, just like gcc is copyrighted by FSF, not authors02:03
ScottKlidaobing: I think I remember someone mentioning earlier that fqterm links against openssl and is GPL.02:04
ScottKIs that correct?02:04
lidaobingScottK, yes, then they change the license02:04
lidaobingScottK, wait a minute, I can find out the bug number02:04
ScottKWhat's the license now?'02:04
ScottKvorian: You know what the problem with that is, right?02:05
vorianthe license included in the source is plain old GPL202:05
lidaobingScottK, http://code.google.com/p/fqterm/issues/detail?id=165, it's in Chinese, by maybe google translation can help you.02:05
ScottKThat's a fail then.02:05
vorianScottK: opensll? nope - but I have a feeling i'll soon be smarter02:05
ScottKvorian: Does the package license have the openssl exception like shown in that bug?02:06
lidaobingScottK, yes, in the end of LICENSE file02:07
asomethingLaney: ya, I saw that, but if you look at the changelog xorg-dev was specifically added in 2.12.4-0ubuntu2 by DktrKranz to fix a FTBFS. Should I add an over-ride?02:07
ScottKOK.  If it has the openssl exception, then it's OK.02:07
vorianit does indeed02:07
ScottKvorian: Generally any code you link against has to be compatibly licensed.02:07
ScottKOK.  Then that's OK now.02:07
vorianthe package is otherwise perfect02:08
ScottKGPL code linking against openssl is a common mistake, but we can't allow it in the archive without the exception.02:08
lidaobingScottK, yes, it depends on libqt4, which has a openssl exception too02:08
ScottKSounds fine then.02:08
lidaobingScottK, total depends of fqterm:  libc6 (>= 2.4), libgcc1 (>= 1:4.1.1), libqt4-network (>= 4.4.3), libqt4-script (>= 4.4.3), libqtcore4 (>= 4.4.3), libqtgui4 (>= 4.4.3), libssl0.9.8 (>= 0.9.8f-5), libstdc++6 (>= 4.1.1)02:08
ScottKlidaobing: Has it been tested with qt 4.5?02:09
lidaobingScottK, only qt 4.4 has been tested02:09
ScottKWe will probably go to 4.5 for Jaunty although it's not decided for sure.02:09
ScottKOK.  I'd suggest testing with 4.5 sooner rather than later.02:09
lidaobingScottK, where can I find a qt 4.5 ubuntu repos? I don't want to build from source02:10
ScottKThat won't block archive inclusion, but if you've got 4.5 compatibility problems....02:10
lidaobingScottK, like ppa02:10
ScottK~roderick-greening02:10
lidaobingthanks02:10
ScottKHis ppa.02:10
Laneyasomething: Have a look at `aptitude show xorg-dev'. I doubt that was the right thing to build-depend on. It'd be good if you could find the correct subset of those -dev packages that are needed to get it to build02:12
Laneyasomething: Especially read the note in the package description02:13
Laneythis is a good time to fix the mistake02:13
asomethingLaney: will do02:13
Laneythanks02:13
lidaobingvorian, thanks02:14
vorianlidaobing: no, thank you for your contribution02:15
lidaobingvorian, :-)02:15
asomethingLaney: I just tried building quick-lounge-applet without the xorg-dev build-dep, and it built fine in a jaunty pbuilder without it. New diff.gz attached to bug Bug #30952902:27

directhexhm, looks like boycott novell is planning a shocking expose on corrupt ubuntu developers closing bugs about removing mono without acting upon them10:47
RainCTo.O10:48
=== asac_ is now known as asac
mok0directhex: url?10:58
directhexmok0, reading yesterday's irc logs10:58
directhexmok0, http://boycottnovell.com/2009/02/14/irc-log-13022009-1/#tFeb%2013%2016:52:3111:00
mok0directhex: thanks!11:00
directhexmok0, before doing anything, be sure to consider occam's razor and hanlon's razor, in that order11:01
mok0directhex: oh, I just want to read it11:01
directhexmok0, be careful the stupid doesn't avalance & crush you11:02
mok0directhex: I guess you remember I'm no mono fan ;-)11:02
directhexmok0, which is your prerogative. but don't fall into the trap of believing that site has any credibility, the way you couldn't ally yourself with jack "disbarred for life for gross misconduct" thompson if you felt videogames are a bit too violent11:04
tuxmaniacdirecthex: :)11:04
mok0heh11:04
mok0I've never seen the site before11:04
directhexlucky you. it's where most anti-mono stuff tends to link back to. a world where "reality" is a microsoft shill11:05
mok0directhex: my anti-mono stance comes from my own thinking, so I wasn't indoctrinated by anyone11:07
directhexmok0, which is why i don't point at you and call you an idiot. i have the utmost respect for anti-mono sentiment from intelligent human beings, but there are none to be found on that site11:08
mok0directhex: heh, well they are a bit conspiratorial in their discussion, aren't they?11:09
mok0A decision has been made to include mono in Debian and Ubuntu, that's basically it, so closing those bugs is natural.11:10
mok0I just think it makes us vulnerable to actions MS might take, that's why I think the inclusion is a bad idea11:11
directhexperhaps. but i'd say our "supports more than vorbis and theora" ffmpeg is a much bigger danger11:12
directhexand even then, the "no patents at all on theora & vorbis" thing is naive - patent trolls & broken patent systems are designed to attack "safe" things11:13
mok0Didn't canonical purchase a license to distribute those technologies?11:14
directhexno. have you seen the price?11:15
mok0no11:15
directhexmok0, just mp3 playback costs $0.75 per app. $2.50-$5 for encoding.11:16
directhexmpeg2 or others are FAR more11:16
mok0yuck11:17
directhexfluendo will sell you licensed codecs, and the gstreamer "install codecs" window has a button to do so11:17
directhex€16 for wma and wmv, €16 for mpeg2 and mpeg4, €28 for both the above plus h264, aac. they bundle mp3 decoding for free.11:19
mok0h264 is free I think11:19
directhexmpeg-la would disagree11:19
mok0Isn't h264 Apple's technology? I thought they decided to let everyone use it for free11:20
directhexfree for <100k users11:21
directhex$20 per unit for 100-200k users11:22
directhex$0.20, even11:22
directhex$0.10 for >200k11:22
mok0wicked11:22
mok0Stupid way to make money11:22
directhexdon't look at me, i just report the facts11:23
* mok0 hugs directhex 11:23
directhexnow, here's the funny thing. you know the €16 licensed wma/wmv codecs from fluendo?11:23
mok0err well no but you just told me about them11:23
directhexthere's a company who will give you licensed wma/wmv/mp3 codecs free of charge11:24
mok0what's the catch?11:24
directhexthey're licensed only for use in a web browser, i.e. not for desktop apps11:25
mok0so you can just make your mp3 app contain a webbrowser11:26
mok0distribute your mp3's from a webserver on localhost11:26
directhexthat could work. or you could use fluendo's free licensed mp3 decoder (gstreamer0.10-fluendo-mp3 package). or ignore the patent & just use your favourite app11:27
directhexfree as in price, mind11:27
mok0Right11:27
directhexshort version: media sucks ^_^11:27
mok0I agree11:27
mok0TBH, I am a sucker, I purchase or rent DVDs and watch them on my dvdplayer11:28
directhexbut if you want to do it "legit", then mpeg-la need to get paid. which means either fluendo (free for mp3, paid for others), or the mysterious benefactors covering mp3 & ms codecs in a web browser context11:29
mok0I also purchase CDs, rip them for mp3s11:29
directhexi'm sure you've guessed who the latter are by now11:29
mok0Google?11:29
directhexhttp://ossguy.com/moonlight/microsoft_media_pack_eula.xhtml11:30
mok0Ha!11:30
pochuhi RainCT :)11:31
mok0Novell again huh11:31
directhexmok0, MS are the ones paying the fees, but essentially11:31
directhexsilverlight-media-pack-linux-x64-5-1.so11:32
directhexnow, i don't actually USE it. i just build against ffmpeg and damn the patenta11:32
directhexbut it's a funny old world11:32
Tonio_mok0: thanks for the kcometen4 revu, uploading including the lintian override.11:33
mok0directhex: it is11:33
mok0Tonio_: great!11:33
* Tonio_ doesn't like to override btw ;)11:33
directhexmok0, my aim is not to tell you steve ballmer is a big fluffy teddy bear. it's to tell you it's a funny old world :)11:33
Tonio_but that's a 3 years ago long debate, so.... time to change the inhabits :)11:33
mok0Tonio_: It makes sense to use it when Lintian reports something you can't fix11:34
mok0or wont, for a reason11:34
Tonio_mok0: ho sure, nevermind, just that a couple of years ago, people most of the time suggested not to override, and I had to change that once, hehe :)11:34
directhexmok0, but (big but) i think it's a reasonable sign that attacks against mono aren't currently considered a worthwhile avenue of revenue generation by some in power in MS - considering they're actively paying for people to have codecs in moonlight11:36
mok0Tonio_: There are automated Lintian reports made on all packages, and for the sake of the sanity of those, it's good to exclude bogus lintian errors that the packager "knows about"11:36
mok0Tonio_: ... but I always run lintian with -o :-)11:36
Tonio_mok0: :)11:36
Tonio_mok0: it's also true that the number of tests lintian performs right now is at least the double....11:37
mok0Tonio_: so, when an automated lintian report will be made on your package, you don't need to be embarassed for not including a watch file :-)11:37
james_wDktrKranz: I can do binary NEW for sure.11:37
Tonio_mok0: point ! :)11:38
mok0Tonio_: that said, we need to come up with a watch file concept that works for VCSs11:38
Tonio_mok0: concerning skrooge, upstream is gonna fix, last udate still had the /usr/lib no soname issue, btw11:38
mok0Tonio_: I'm not settled on the question if it's a blocker11:39
Tonio_it'll be fixed before FF, so it's fair...11:40
DktrKranzjames_w, cool! If you could manage gnome-desktop-sharp2, that would be great :)11:40
mok0Tonio_: Sure, otherwise, plz get a second opinion from someone in the kubuntu team11:40
mok0Tonio_: it'd be cool to get it in jaunty11:41
directhexyes, g-d-s2 please11:41
directhexpart of the messy "our ABI sucks. let's break it!" from upstream11:41
directhexworse, "our API sucks too"11:42
Tonio_mok0: hum, I know the kubuntu guys, they won't accept it with the soname issue :)11:43
mok0Tonio_: ok11:44
mok0Tonio_: that was my inclination too11:44
Tonio_mok0: well, eventually if that was a critical app, like k3b for example... but since that one is really optional...11:44
mok0Tonio_: Right11:45
Tonio_k3b would have given: ping upstream and upload, since we really have to replace our old kde3 version11:45
mok0Tonio_: Although the kubuntu team is really working hard to make jaunty shine11:45
* Tonio_ notices he still has to split out the k3blibs package for multiverse deps...11:46
Tonio_mok0: I am too, hehe11:46
mok0Tonio_: thumbs up to you!11:46
Tonio_mok0: and we'll make it, believe me !11:46
mok01Tonio_: as a kubuntu user I salute you11:47
Tonio_mok0: and if you're still interested in revuing my packages : http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/p/frescobaldi11:47
Tonio_mok0: the manpage was written especially for you, hehe11:47
mok0Tonio_: heh11:47
Tonio_mok0: /me hugs mok0 for being a kubuntu user11:47
Tonio_oups... I still lhave to get used to quassel, it seems11:47
* directhex installs libqyoto4.3-cil on mok0 11:48
mok0Tonio_: ah, nice!11:48
sebnerdirecthex: waah, gtk# ftw! :P11:48
mok0directhex: ouch! that hurt :-P11:48
Tonio_mok0: pain to write the deps, since that's python and using cmake, not pycentral...11:48
mok0Tonio_: uh-uh11:48
Tonio_mok0: but I think it should be okay..11:48
mok0Tonio_: I'll  take a look sometime today11:49
directhexsebner, it would be nice to see some decent mono apps gain "native" qt frontends. meebey designed his irc client to be able to do so, for example11:49
sebnerdirecthex: I know but sebner just can't tolerate kde/qt :P11:49
directhexsebner, well, don't blame you on that ;)11:50
sebnerhehe11:50
DktrKranzhoi sebner !11:50
sebnerDktrKranz: !11:50
mok0Tonio_: aren't you s'posed to use lists and stuff for lists when you use the docbook dtd?11:51
Tonio_mok0: you mean ?11:51
Tonio_mok0: well I usually write docbook files by hand (vim rules...) and honnestly I'm not an expert in the docbook format11:52
Tonio_mok0: if you have suggestions to make that a better way, please say !11:52
Tonio_mok0: as you have understand, man page for desktop apps isn't for me a priority, but I'll make an effort ! ;)11:53
mok0Tonio_: well you have some lists in the page with "*" and "-" bullets, that will look awful if someone typesets the manpage for the printer11:53
Tonio_hum, true, that11:53
* Tonio_ reads manpages with konqueror, so didn't figure out :)11:53
mok0Tonio_: just being picky :-)11:53
Tonio_mok0: know about a good docbook editor (gui prefered), on that point ?11:54
mok0Tonio_: no I don't. I think docbook is a blemish on the face of the planet, myself11:54
* Tonio_ searches for a good editor11:55
mok0<reply>Why<interrobang /> <statement>you might say it's impossible to read</statement></reply>11:56
* RainCT finds the source of hand-written roff manpages easier to read than docbook ones11:57
mok0.SH me too11:57
mok0:)11:58
geserjames_w, ScottK: just read your mail on the MOTU ml, what do you propose for the pending sync requests so we don't pull in possibly unwanted changes from Debian unstable because of bad timing?11:58
RainCTuhm.. svn.debian.org is timing out here :S12:03
* mok0 thought the point of the FF was to limit the number of uploads after that date, not before...12:03
RainCTis it down or does it just hate me? :P12:03
mok0RainCT: it's _not_ down...12:05
DktrKranzmok0, I'm inclined to think about FF some days before of it, just to make sure I'm not rushing too much12:05
gesermok0: but we don't want to start possible transitions now because the flood gates open in Debian again and we sync it from unstable12:05
mok0geser: true12:05
mok0In fact, there are loads of silly sync requests sitting in the uuc queue12:06
mok0already12:06
Laneydon't be afraid to reject them!12:06
mok0Laney: well it takes time to reject them... I just ignore them...12:07
Laneybut then someone else has to spend time looking at it12:08
mok0Laney: we can just mass-reject them after FF12:08
mok0Laney: but otherwise... point taken12:08
DktrKranzif there are silly ones, just remove u-u-s with a rationale behind it12:09
directhexaccept them if they're from me :<12:09
Laneywe should try to get to any good ones before FF12:10
mok0DktrKranz: yes, that's an option.12:10
Laneyactually, I don't see a reason to do mass rejections12:10
Laneyeither we should upload now if they're good (+ new features), reject now if they're bad12:11
Laneyand bugfix uploads are still OK12:11
DktrKranzLaney, I proposed a possible workaround: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-motu/2009-February/005432.html12:11
Laneyyep, that's good12:11
Laneymass rejecting bugs just because we didn't get round to sponsoring is *not* good12:12
geserI usually ask the reporter why it should be synced now if it's not obvious from changelog or bug description12:12
Laneysounds fair12:13
mok0The problem is that sync-requests are not automatically closed when auto-sync resumes12:13
Laneybut there shouldn't be any outstanding sync requests at that time12:13
Laneythey should have either been done or closed12:13
Tonio_mok0: fixing the manpage using docbook templates...12:14
DktrKranzugh, queue is 74 packages long! :(12:14
Laneyit was much worse than that ;)12:14
DktrKranzreally?12:15
geserLaney: it's still possible to sync after FF, but either is has to be the same upstream version or a exception was granted12:15
LaneyI know12:15
mok0Tonio_: amazing12:15
geserit was over 130 a few days ago12:15
Laneyso if it's not valid then we reject => off the sponsors radar12:15
DktrKranzOMG!12:15
Laneyor accept => off the sponsors radar12:15
DktrKranzif no-one objects, I'll have a run at queue and tag bugs with a "ff-aware" tag12:16
iulianDktrKranz: Please go ahead.12:17
* DktrKranz will be back in a couple of hours12:18
iulianI will have a look at the queue later on as well.12:18
DktrKranziulian, 9.04-pre-ff sounds good?12:18
iulianDktrKranz: Yes.12:19
Tonio_mok0: should fit what you expect now, uploaded on revu and available in a couple of minutes.12:22
mok0Tonio_: thanks!12:22
* Tonio_ will become what he never wanted to be: a manpage expert... ^^12:23
Laneywtf is the MOTU reviewers team?12:24
mok0directhex: are you dealing with the moonlight sync?12:25
directhexmok0, define "dealing with". i'm not a motu, but it's my request12:25
mok0directhex: It's finished?12:26

Laneycheck out the epic copyright file12:26
directhexmeebey wrote the epic copyright file12:26
directhexand counts as an advocate, since he submitted to debian NEW12:27
directhexand it's only epic due to embedded copies of pixman & cairo12:30
james_wDktrKranz, directhex: why is libgnomeprint2.18-cil_2.24.0-1ubuntu1_all.deb?12:41
james_wI mean, why "_all"?12:42
directhexjames_w, should it not be? generally speaking, pure mono packages (i.e. ones containing only c#) are fully cross-platform12:42
james_wdirecthex: just querying as the other new binary is any12:43
james_wgnome-panel12:43
directhexjames_w, mono packages are only non-all if they contain some C (e.g. C helper libs) or if they contain poorly-handled wrappers around variable-size system types. if you want to check, look at the package contents - if there's a .so, any is right, if there's only dll, then all is right12:44
directhexmake sense?12:44

* ScottK is currently waiting to see if threats to killfile someone are effective on -devel-discuss.14:21
loic-m-devel-discuss has been a spamlist lately14:22
ScottKThe discussion has not been very helpful.14:22
loic-mwith both the C-A-B and another one i can't remember now14:23
loic-mI had to spend my time deleting emails (like 20 times a day)14:23
loic-mAnd there was indeed no point, plus there was the same discussion month ago, and that should have been over with14:24
mok0Hey cool I won a cash prize of €600.000 and a brand new Toyota Prius14:24
ScottKYep.14:24
ScottKI think the decision not to include a GUI preference for re-enabling c-a-b is a bit bizarre, but then I use KDE, not Gnome.14:25
loic-m-thunderbird needs the ability to blacklist a whole thread14:25
loic-mScottK: AFAIK there's xorg-options-configurator14:26
ScottKloic-m: It didn't make it.14:26
ScottKAnd the alternative to provide an option in another context was rejected.14:26
loic-mI just got an update from the blueprint today. Only the new interface didn't make it AFAIU14:26
ScottKI see.14:26
ScottKWithouth the new interface how do you change c-a-b?14:27
loic-m"2009-02-13 bryce: Uploaded to universe for Jaunty."14:27
loic-mScottK: AFAIU it's the interface makeover that's on hold for J+1, the app should still come with one14:27
ScottKOK.  We'll see.14:28
loic-mtseliot, can you correct me if I'm wrong?14:29
loic-mxorg-option-editor should be the name, we just have to wait till it gets in the repos14:29
loic-mOh yeah, the other oh so useful discussion was going from 2.6.28 to 2.6.29 just like 5 days before FF ;)14:30
tseliotloic-m: yes, it was uploaded yesterday but the current UI is not final14:30
tseliots/final/very good as regards usability/14:31
loic-mtseliot thanks a lot. Is the name "xorg-options-editor"? I tried the one on your ppa, but the jaunty repos doesn't show it yet14:31
tseliotloic-m: the one you tried wasn't the final release. Let me see if I can find it14:32
loic-mAs for usability, the Don't zap option was easy to set up last time I tried, and didn't blow up my xorg.conf14:32
tseliotloic-m: I can't find it right now. You can simply type "dontzap --disable" to do it from the command line14:35
ScottKtseliot: So there's still not gui for it in Gnome?14:36
tseliotScottK: bryce wrote that it uploaded that package to universe14:36
tseliot(yesterday)14:37

quadrisproScottK: just done, uploading now (http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/details.py?upid=5115)14:42
tseliotScottK: maybe. I worked on that patch for Kubuntu because I wasn't sure as to whether the KDE ui for xorg-options-editor could be ready in time for Jaunty14:43
ScottKquadrispro: For your comment on cairo-dock-plugins, I would just change it an upload if that's the only issue you found.14:43

Laneyheh15:20
Tonio_directhex: it is kde4 replacement, yes, not qt415:20
RainCTBtw, is there some more policykit usage, in Jaunty, or still only the core GNOME apps?15:20
Tonio_Laney: not that I don't want too, but they have different archives policy that I don't know about specially, and ubuntu is already a lot of work, btw..15:21
Tonio_Laney: and I don't think debian has partitionmanager since they don't have kde4 in stable right now15:21
ScottKTonio_: Considering qtparted is actively dangerous in some respects I think removal in Ubuntu might be quite a reasonable thing to d.15:21
pochuRainCT: apt-cache rdepends libpolkit2 ;)15:21

RainCTmok0: the default is still python2.5, I think15:36
mok0ScottK: alright, go ahead15:36
ScottKmok0: For a new package I agree, but patches can introduce symbol changes, so I don't think it's generally correct.15:37
mok0ScottK: oh, that would be highly irregular for a patch to do that15:37
ScottKThe Debian gensymbols tools generate files with the revision included and I think it's somewhat pointless to remove them by hand.15:37

mok0ScottK: well, I'll give in to the realities of life...15:39
mok0ScottK: perhaps they should :-)15:39
mok0ScottK: The idea of having a .symbols file in libraries is in principle a good one, but perhaps the introduction is a bit pre-mature15:40
ScottKIt's a young technology.15:40
mok0Indeed15:40
ScottKAt this point I think including them is good and eventually we'll figure out what to do with them.15:40
mok0ScottK: exactly. I advise people to include it, it's easier to do it right away than if we have to go back sometime and fix all the packages that don't have it15:41

Laneyt16:00
RainCTOkay, I'll allow it to Reviewers and Moderators then16:01
mok0Laney: perhaps, it came out of a discussion RainCT  and I had about a step of triaging the copyright of uploaded packages before actual reviewing begins16:01
mok0There often are uploads without COPYING files and it would be good to have a way to keep those out of the list until the problem is solved16:03
LaneyThis is just a part of normal reviewing IMO - each package should be taken as a whole16:04
mok0I've a few times seen packages with that problem that have gone through several cycles of review/upload. The uploaders become quite frustrated when you tell them that it won't be accepted without the license16:05
mok0understandably so16:05
mok0Laney: you are right of course, but in the heat of battle, reviewer do forget to check everything16:06

mok0Laney: just throwing ideas around16:07
RainCTAnd a more technical question, my first idea was to store them in a varchar (in the form "tag1;tag2;tag3;" in the SourcePackages table). Is this reasonable or does someone see some reason why having two new tables instead (tid|tag, tid|usid)?16:07
Laneymok0: Don't use a database like that :(16:08
RainCT* would be better?16:08
LaneyRainCT: *16:08
mok0RainCT: just store sid, text16:08
mok0RainCT: or sid, tagid16:08
Laneymok0: I can see the problem happening the other way round with this copyright step16:08
mok0RainCT: then you can have as many keywords as you like on a source package16:09
RainCTmok0: uhm right, one new table would be enough (sid|tag, for everything else we have GROUP BY :))16:09
Laneypeople ping upload for changes16:09
Laneyupstream*16:09
Laneyand then we decide we don't want the package after all16:09
Laneybut maybe that will be more rare16:09
RainCTmok0: the amount of keyboards isn't really a problem.. I checked and with VARCHAR(255) I could get around 50 tags to fit16:09
mok0Laney: yes, that's true16:09
RainCT*keywoards XD16:10
mok0RainCT: :-D16:10
Turlhow can I check if I can remove export DH_COMPAT=4 safely?16:10
mok0RainCT: but it's much simpler to scan a table for sid's16:10
ScottKTurl: If you have the file debian/compat and it has a number 4 or higher in it.16:11
RainCTTurl: You can. "export DH_COMPAT" is deprecated, create a file called debian/compat with content "4" isntad16:11
RainCT*instead16:11
Turlthanks ScottK, RainCT :)16:11
* mok0 thinks compat should be a field in rules O:) 16:12
RainCTmok0: But it requires an additional query in details.py. It will probably simplify other stuff later, though, so I think I'll go with it :)16:12
* ScottK thinks put your Debian hat on and have a flamewar about it there.16:12
mok0ScottK: Perhaps now is a good time, when everyone is worked up and happy after celebrating Lenny's release16:13
RainCTmok0: I agree, but perhaps they will get angry at you because debian/control is requried by policy but debhelper is not :P16:14
ScottKWell I think they moved from debian/rules to debian/compat for some reason.16:14
sebnermok0: yeah, good idea. have an extra file just for one number in it ... :D16:14
mok0sebner: :-)16:14
Laneymakes it easy for dh to parse it16:15
mok0sebner: another two-byte file16:15
sebnerehehe16:15
mok0Laney: AFAIK debelper knows how to parse control :-)16:15
Laneyah control16:15
Laneyyou said rules ;)16:15
RainCTcat|grep|cut (or cat|awk)16:15
RainCTisn't that difficuly to get a value from debian/control16:15
mok0I did :-/ I meant control of course16:16
mok0A field in control16:16
Laneyyes, very easy to do it there16:16
mok0Laney: it definitely does _not_ belong in rules16:16
Turlnow, a binary lacks its own manpage :/. but its mentioned on the main binary manpage. Lintian says I can make a symlink, how?16:17
LaneyTurl: use dh_link16:17
Laneyman dh_link16:17
TurlLaney: which package is it in?16:17
RainCTLaney: debhelper16:18
TurlI don't seem to have it installed :/16:18
Laneydebhelper16:18
RainCTerr, Turl :)16:18
Turlstupid me, I installed devscripts and not devhelper after reinstalling Jaunty :p16:18
Turldh_link usr/share/man/man1/proxychains.1 usr/share/man/man1/proxyresolv.116:23
Turlwould that be ok?16:24
iulianThat should do it.16:25
LaneyI prefer to make a package.links file, but that's right too16:25
Turlanother one, FSSTND-dir-in-usr usr/etc/16:26
RainCTTurl: config files go to /etc,  not /usr/etc16:26
Turlhow can I change that RainCT?16:26
Turlin debian/rules I guess?16:27
RainCTTurl: yes, using mv in debian/rules is usally the easiest way16:27
RainCTTurl: but don't forget to patch any file referring to /usr/etc so that it looks in /etc16:27
sebnerTurl: and squashing upstream :P16:27
Turlupstream is quite dead :p16:28
RainCT(you can do this with a normal patch or using sed in debian/rules, but if you do the later don't forget to revert the change in clean:)16:28
Laney#16:28
LaneyIf there are Ubuntu changes apart from debian/changelog or if FeatureFreeze is in effect:16:28
Laney* A copy of the entries from debian/changelog corresponding to the changes relative to the current version in Ubuntu16:28
LaneyAnyone object to removing the first line of that?16:28
Laney(from w.u.c)16:28
Turlcan I use a normal patch with quilt RainCT?16:28
RainCTTurl: sure16:29
sebnerquilt \o/16:29
Laneysebner: can you look at the moon upload?16:31
Laneybtw how was service this week?!16:31
RainCTmok0: suggestions on where to show the tags in details.py are welcome :P16:32
RainCTbelow "subscribers:" was my first idea, but if I want to convert the tags list into an input it looks ugly there16:33

dolanor316:35
mok0ScottK: I've been trying to dist-upgrade my home intrepid box to jaunty, but I get the following conflict:16:35
mok0... got any ideas on how to solve that?16:35
dolanor(oops)16:35
sebnerLaney: it was ok since we had theoretic lessons mostly ... next week will be a little more tougher :\ , moon upload?16:35
ScottKmok0: What conflict?16:35
Laneybug 32937616:35
RainCTmok0: which conflict?16:35
ubottuLaunchpad bug 329376 in ubuntu "[sync from Debian NEW] moonlight" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/32937616:35
mok0ScottK:  ugh it started with a / so IRC ate it16:36
Adri2000is it possible a request a FFe before FF and before the upstream version is out? :p16:36
mok0 /var/cache/apt/archives/kde-window-manager-4%3a4.2.0-0ubuntu4_i386.deb is trying to overwrite /usr/share/kde4/apps/kconf-update/plasma-add-shortcut-to-menu.upd which is also in package kdebase-workspace-data16:36

Laneymoonlight is sexy and we want it!16:37
ScottKmok0: Let me look into it.16:37
sebnerAdri2000: well, ask motu-release folks! :D16:37
sebnerLaney: pfff beta, tell directhex to update to final and sync/upload that stuff :P16:38
Laneyit is final16:38
Laneycheck the version number16:38
ScottKmok0: Looks like a missing conflicts/replaces.  It should be safe to force it.16:39
ScottKAdri2000: You can always ask.16:39
sebnerLaney: aha! I was wondering16:41
Laneyheh16:41
Adri2000ScottK: actually the situation is: there is a new version upstream with new features, but I don't want to upload it now because there are known bugs. these bugs will be fixed in the next version (which will be bugfix only) probably released just after FF. what should I do?16:41
sebnerLaney: BTW! just wondering .. you are MOTU now ^^16:42
mok0ScottK: ok, thanks16:42
Laneysebner: Yeah but I did a sync from NEW yesterday ;)16:42
sebnerLaney: and?16:42
ScottKAdri2000: When is the bugfix release expected?16:42
Laneywanted to share the joy with you16:42
* Laney is sponsoring other things atm16:42
sebnerLaney: heh, well ... it's approved by meebey right? I'll look at it and upload it later then if you are fine with that?16:43
Laneyyep16:43
Adri2000ScottK: the rc is out since yesterday, and upstream told me final is expected 6-7 days later16:43
* pochu waves at sebner 16:44
ScottKAdri2000: Is the RC the known buggy one?16:44
* sebner hugs pochu :D16:44
* pochu hugs sebner back :)16:44
sebnerLaney: good boys also attach the .dsc file :P16:44
Laneynahhhh16:44
Laneyyou actually look at that?16:44
Adri2000ScottK: nope, the previous stable release is the buggy one. that rc should fix the known bugs16:45
sebnerLaney: hm?16:45
RainCTsebner: if you're talking about a new upstream version, you're supposed to download16:45
ScottKAdri2000: I'd upload the RC then.16:45
Laneysebner: Apply the diff to an empty directory and then run the get-orig-source16:45
RainCT* the .orig.tar.gz yourself to ensure that it wasn't modified, so a .dsc wouldn't make anything easier anyway16:45
Laneythen you can make the dsc16:45

Laneyyou need more military service16:46
Laneythey haven't disciplined you yet!16:46
RainCThehe16:46
ScottKsebner: It's not funny.  It's a potential security risk.  If you take a tarball from a non-developer it breaches the chain of trust.16:46
* directhex flings betas @ sebner 16:46
sebnerScottK: of course it is. At least if the uploaders are unknown to me16:47
sebnerdirecthex: ahahaha!16:47
sebnerLaney: NAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH16:47
Laneywow16:47
Laneyeven more javascript on edge16:47
ScottKsebner: If the uploaders need sponsoring, it's a security risk.  You may trust them, but Ubuntu has not chosen to.16:47
RainCTLaney: where?16:47
pochuLaney: Launchpad 3.0 will switch from Python to JS16:47
LaneyRainCT: bug titles16:48

sebnerScottK: understood :)16:48
pochuTurl: hola emilio :)16:48
Adri2000ScottK: given that I'm the co-maintainer of that package in debian, I wanted to package it in debian and then sync. I'm not sure debian wants me to upload a rc and a few days later the final, just because of ubuntu FF :p16:49
RainCTif they only got ride of that evil red thingie :P16:49
Turlhola pochu :)16:49
RainCTuhm.. now ScottK will kill me for saying "evil" :)16:49
pochuTurl: s/emilio/tocayo/ ;)16:49
ScottKAdri2000: Particularly not right in the post-lenny rush.16:49
ScottKAdri2000: I'd upload the RC here and then sync the final from Debian when ready.16:49
directhexsebner, that's why there's a get-orig-source rule on moon, if it bothers you16:49
ScottKRainCT: That particular individual has a history of being obnoxious.16:50
ScottKAnd yes, he didn't get and I will killfile him now.16:50
Turlasi que te llamas emilio tambien pochu? :p16:50
directhexScottK, obnoxious people? on the internet? :o16:51

ScottKsebner: You should.17:06
sebnerDktrKranz: before Debian release! :D17:06

sebnerDktrKranz: ah that mail about the Debian release and the FF? I think I hardly read the content :P17:11
RainCTTurl: btw, of you run  lintian -iI *.changes  you'll get more details17:12
Turlit's not a development library afaik17:12
TurlRainCT: I have the details :p17:12
Turlbut idk what to do, as it isn't a devel library, afaik proxychains loads it on everything you "proxychain" so it uses the proxy17:13
Turlcan I omit it?17:13
ScottKsebner: Uploads done immediately post-release in Debian are not famous for being well considered.  Do be careful.17:15
sebnerScottK: I know, It was more like a joke (I think I matured in that case) .. besides I only have inet access on weekends :(17:15

dolanormok0: kde 4.2 under ubuntu 8.10 ?17:41
mok0dolanor: no unfortunately... 9.0417:41
ScottKdolanor: There are experimental packages for 8.10 in the kubuntu-experimental PPA.  Use at your own risk.17:41
mok0I tried those a few weeks ago and hosed my intrepid system...17:42
ScottKHmm.  The only issue I know of with them is with plasma stuff that didn't get rebuilt?17:43
mok0I honestly can't remember the details, as I recall I could find no way to log in17:44
ScottKThat doesn't sound promising.17:48
mok0I didn't have a lot of patience that day17:49
ScottKUnderstand.17:49
TurlScottK, I think I'll leave the relibtoolize for a far, far future :p17:50
Turlfixed everything but it17:50
ScottKAs I said, no easy way.17:50

mok0_16aR_: ah, new nick?18:11
dolanor_Sorry mok0 :)18:11
RainCTmok0: yeah, that's why REVU is getting it :P18:11
dolanor_yes, I use both of them on IRC18:11
TurlRainCT: AHAH? I'm a web dev, and never heard that :p18:11
mok0dolanor_: the current one is easier to type18:11
mok0dolanor_: the other one sounds like a password18:12
dolanor_Yes, the problem is I can't begin IRC name with number ...18:12
mok0what's wrong with starting with a letteR?18:12
RainCTTurl: Me neither (until now :P). Seems like it is what Ajax is called when you directly use the data received from the server (ie, it's not XML/JSON/whatever, which you have to parse, but directly text or HTML)18:12
dolanor_no that's just a wordplay in french18:13
RainCThttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AHAH18:13
Turlcool RainCT. So I have been using a new technology without even knowing its name? :p18:14
RainCThehe18:15
Turlanyway, that's quite unstandard :p18:15
Turlunless you use mootools' Request.HTML and then use DOM to insert it, but as that can be considered to be client-side parsing, it's AJAX again. what a dilema :p18:16
dolanor_16 is pronounced : sayze (http://swac-collections.org/index.php?page=snd_info&idx=259281), and ar is pronounced : are == Cesar in french18:17
dolanor_mok0: the problem is to begin with 1, for 16aR. So I need to begin with another char. I choosed _18:18
Turlso in the end, it means you're 16-yo?18:19
dolanor_yes18:22
dolanor_and I'm packaging hotbabe :p18:22

Turland it has a little note on the end of the description: "This package is in Medibuntu because of its explicit content."18:33
dolanor_what package ? hexdiff ?18:35
dolanor_you're kidding ? :(18:35
dolanor_ah no hotbabe18:35

Turltomboy, what's doing tomboy there :p18:41

blueyedWhere can I get previous Debian packages for "experimental"? (I want to have a patch between the current version in experimental and the previous one, for merging into Ubunu)18:44
Turlblueyed: on debian packages page I guess? try packages.debian.org18:44
LaneyI don't think snapshots does exp, does it?18:45
blueyedno, Laney.18:46
blueyedTurl: there's only the current version on e.g. http://packages.debian.org/experimental/virtualbox-ose18:46
ScottKblueyed: If the package is maintained in a VCS, that's probably your best bet.18:46
blueyedScottK: it is, and I've thought about it, but would be nicer to have the "real release".18:46
geserblueyed: try google, perhaps it's still on some slow mirror18:47
blueyedhow does MoM handle it? does it keep the old releases to create the patches?18:47
ScottKI think that's the only place you're likely to find it unless geser's low mirror theory works.18:47
ScottKblueyed: MoM doesn't look at experimental.18:47
blueyedScottK: yes.. but does it use snapshots for unstable?18:48
ScottKI don't think so.18:49
ScottKI think it just uses whatever is current.18:49
txwikingerIs slocate substituted by mlocate in jaunty ?18:58

directhexc_korn, essentially, on debian, you can upload binaries to the archive (on ubuntu you can only upload source). so if you have an arch-all package like libfoo which depends on an arch-any package like libfoo-native, then someone uploads a new binary version of libfoo, then there's no guarantees that libfoo-native will match up if the version numbers fall out of sync19:49
directhexit's a bit messy19:49
c_kornhm, ok19:49
c_kornwhich linitian warnings/errors should I fix?19:50
Laneyc_korn: Have you spoken to the science team about thsi?19:51
Laneyit would be better if you could do the update with them19:52
c_kornI am in contact to the sylvestre ledru who maintains the package in debian-science19:52
c_korn-to +with -the19:52
Laneycool19:52
Laneycan you do the update in their VCS19:53
Laney?19:53
c_kornunfortunately not19:53
Laneywhy so?19:55
c_kornI can mail him the changes that would be required.19:56
dolanor_need 1 more advocate on hexdiff package, utility to visually see differences between 2 files in hexadecimal : http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/p/hexdiff19:58
Laneyc_korn: It would be ideal if you could hang out in their IRC channel and do the changes directly in Debian20:00
Laneythen both distros benefit20:00
c_kornok. btw. is there actually a chance for scilab-5.1 to come in jaunty? https://bugs.launchpad.net/debian/+source/scilab/+bug/27226420:10
ubottuUbuntu bug 272264 in scilab "Please sync scilab-5.1 (multiverse) from PPA" [Wishlist,Confirmed]20:10
c_kornthere is fop and jeuclid missing20:10
c_kornjeuclid is in the debian queue20:10
c_kornthe debian developers are busy because of the new release.20:10
c_kornso I don't think it will come out of the queue before jauntys FF20:11
loic-mI'm not at home these days, and i can't for the life of me remember where I got the script to have pbuilder-jaunty-i386, pbuilder-intrepid-amd64, etc...20:24
loic-mI've googled for a while and looked at the MOTU wiki, but with no success20:24
directhexloic-m, a pbuilderrc on the wiki?20:24
Laneyloic-m: pbuilder-dist20:24
loic-msomething like that, yes20:24
Laneyin ubuntu-dev-tools20:24
loic-mok, thanks a lot Laney20:25
RainCTloic-m: if you're in Intrepid get the version from intrepid-backports, pbuilder-dist there has been highly improved (that is, rewritten in Python :P)20:25
RainCT(and unlike what it may seem, the Python version is actually faster than the previous Bash one)20:26
loic-mRainCT: thanks. Since I had to make a USB disk install to use Ubuntu, I went for Jaunty, but I'll remember that when I'm on my computer again20:27
* directhex runs RainCT in ironpython20:27
RainCT:/20:27
Laneythe version in jaunty has it too20:27
RainCTwhat's actually the point for ironpython?20:27
directhexRainCT, python syntax w/ access to all mono libs20:28
directhexRainCT, .net's designed to be multi-language20:29
RainCT(omg.. have you seen the guy complaining about ctrl+alt+backspace being removed because this way he can't know if the login screen is real...? o_O!!)20:30
RainCTwhat's actually the point for .net?20:31
RainCT^^20:31
Pici(well thats certainly original)20:31
RainCThehe20:31
directhexRainCT, like i said, it's a question of multi-languageness. you can write a library in ironpython, and one in vb.net, and use them in your c# app without knowing the difference. there's also ironscheme & ironruby... hell, boo & nemerle. and java, through ikvm20:33
directhexRainCT, rather than the usual "to use a lib in any language, gotta write in c" thing made of suck20:33
RainCTah, nice concept20:33
RainCTbut.. isn't that slow as hell?20:34
directhexRainCT, that's the "cil" part of the package names. "common intermediate language" is the bytecode that *all* .net languages compile to - and once it's in that form, the original language is irrelevant20:34
directhexRainCT, compared to what?20:35
pochuto C :)20:35
RainCTdirecthex: running interpreters for like 5 different languages for a single app20:35
RainCTor are they all first compiled to that bytecode you just mentioned?20:35
directhexRainCT, everything is compiled to cil. once there, it's JITted on execution.20:36
RainCTOK, makes sense. Thx20:36
directhexpochu, compared to c, yes, it's usually slower. i wouldn't write a computationally intensive piece of code in c#. or python, or java, or etc etc etc20:36
Turlhow was the sponsors group named in launchpad?20:38
RainCTTurl: ubuntu-{universe,main}-sponsors20:38
Turlthanks RainCT :)20:38
Turlsubscribed them, hope they update proxychains now20:39
RainCTAlright, REVU has a tag cloud and you can filter the index using a tag20:44
RainCTAnd it's now also possible to see both archived and unarchived packages at once, or only archived updated packages, etc.. with updated={true,false,both} and archived={true,false,both} in the URL20:45
RainCT(tag filters from the tag cloud default to show new and updated packages which are unarchived, but you can override this using what I've just told + tag=<tag name>)20:46
RainCTnhandler, mok0 ^20:46
mok0RainCT: /me looks20:57
dolanor_mok0: is there konversation in Qt4 in kde4.2 now ?20:58
mok0dolanor_: I think the new IRC client is quassel20:58
ScottKdolanor: The kde4 Konversation is not released yet.20:58
ScottKKonversation (the KDE3 version) is still on the Kubuntu dvd, but it not the default IRC client anymore.20:59
mok0RainCT: "Number of tags: 0" :-)20:59
pochutalking about IRC, anyone using irssi and ignoring JOINS/QUITS/PARTS? If so, how do you do to not read the whole screen when you switch channels? Now that I ignore those, sometimes I start to read a few lines before the last message and then I realize that was written some hours before...21:01
pochusince without joins/quits everything is together :) perhaps some sort of "red line" as XChat has marking the last lines you read (i.e. where was the channel when you switched to another window)21:02
dolanor_by the way, does a jabber chat/conference for ubuntu somewhere ?21:04
RainCTmok0: I've send a mail about this to ubuntu-motu@21:14
c_kornis there a command to install the build-depends when I am in a chroot?21:17
RainCTc_korn: apt-get build-dep <pkgname>21:17
mok0RainCT: nice!21:18
c_kornehm, I want to build a package in a chroot? but manually because I know it will fail at some point.21:18
* mok0 likes21:18
c_korn-? +.21:18
RainCTmok0: :)21:18
RainCTc_korn: use --bindmounts to get the package's source into the chroot and then build it normally.. dpkg-buildpackage21:19
c_korndpkg-checkbuilddeps: Unmet build dependencies: ...21:21
c_kornI want to install those dependencies21:21
RainCTdolanor_: http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/18041/ :)21:22
dolanor_I was wondering, does it exists some apt-get/aptitude command to download every .deb for 1 package except for the base package ?21:23
dolanor_héhé, thanks RainCT :)21:23
RainCTc_korn: as I said,  apt-get build-deps, or if the package is new (so that apt doesn't know them):    sudo /usr/lib/pbuilder/pbuilder-satisfydepends21:23
dolanor_that's one of his cool usage :)21:24
RainCTc_korn: (outside the chroot, or there if you install ubuntu-dev-tools, you can use get-build-deps)21:24
RainCTdolanor_: get-build-deps, but it will install them21:25
Laneyc_korn: are you using pbuilder?21:25
c_kornno21:25
LaneyYou can set up a pbuilder hook that will drop you into a shell...21:25
Laneyok21:25
Laneynever mind!21:26
c_kornget-build-deps just output some text:  -> Creating pbuilder-satisfydepends-dummy package21:27
c_kornI just want to have the build dependencies in debian/control installed so I can run debian/rules build21:28
RainCTc_korn: and it doesn't install them?21:28
RainCTget-build-deps is a wrapper around pbuilder-satisfydepends-dummy which is the application used by pbuilder to install the dependencies21:28
c_kornhttp://pastebin.com/dc7b8b0621:28
mok0c_korn: I uploaded jeuclid today21:29
c_kornmok0: upload? where did you upload it to?21:29
LaneyRainCT: broken control parser? ;)21:29
c_kornsorry, I am new to this ubuntu package upstream things ;P21:29
mok0c_korn: ubuntu archive21:30
RainCTc_korn: can you paste the debian/control file too?21:30
c_kornhttp://pastebin.com/d825a6fc21:31
c_kornmok0: ok. can you update the bug report please? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/32617921:32
ubottuUbuntu bug 326179 in Ubuntu Jaunty "Please sync jeuclid 3.1.4 from debian-science" [Wishlist,New]21:32
c_kornI need to know the status of jeuclid for scilab21:32
nhandlerRainCT: I like the new tags. Would it be possible to automatically set certain tags on packages?21:32
mok0c_korn: it's still in the new queue21:32
c_kornhm, ok21:32
RainCTnhandler: everything is possible :)21:33
mok0c_korn: fortunately turn-around time in the new queue is not Debianish 8 weeks21:33
RainCT+ patches are welcome ^^21:33
nhandlerRainCT: I'll try. But as you probably saw from my last attemp, my python is pretty bad21:33
c_kornI am installing the dependencies manually now21:38
RainCTmok0: pbuilder-sat.. fails to parse the #21:42
RainCTare they even allowed by policy?21:42
mok0RainCT: you mean in control files?21:49
dolanor_RainCT: yes, but I think get-build-deps will only take the non-already installed package, right ?21:49
dolanor_I was meaning taking the whole dependency tree without the base package since it is already in every ubuntu21:50
dolanor_the goal : I have an offline server, I want to install some new package without getting every .deb by hand, and verifying dependencies myself21:51
RainCTmok0: yes21:53
RainCTdolanor_: perhaps you can create a download script with Synaptic21:54
dolanor_I want to package some game ... But it needs 1 library. But in the upstream package, it packages the dependency and build it ... Do I need to create a lib package for the dependency ? It is a static library right now21:54
mok0I've occasionally seen fields commented out with '#'s, it works that way21:57
RainCTmok0: so we should fix pbuilder?22:08

mok0:-)22:14
Laneyloic-m: I will build on amd64 and trust you then22:19

directhexhex is for sissys22:21
directhexoctal!22:21
Laneyloic-m: I know, but I can't upload a broken package22:21
loic-mLaney: But I'll upload them to my PPA is the packages haven't entered the repos when I get back home.22:22
