| bcurtiswx | nhandler: octave was the first tar.gz file that came to mind | 00:10 |
| nhandler | bcurtiswx: If you really want to get it to work, you can look at the octave package in the repositories. Otherwise, I would suggest you choose a simpler package as a "learning process" | 00:14 |

| fmarier | ScottK: thanks for letting me know, I didn't know about that... | 04:18 |
| ajmitch | fmarier: looks like a rather critical update, with ruining marriages & all | 04:19 |
| superm1 | siretart, have you talked with ffmpeg upstream about their commitment to a release schedule? If they can get some sort of regular cadence going, we can try to get more pressure on these projects to move to using a system library of ffmpeg rather than duplicating the code in their trees (eg VLC, mplayer, xine, mythtv, etc) | 04:19 |
| fmarier | ajmitch: yeah, I forgot to change the importance while I was filing the bug :( | 04:19 |
| dtchen | superm1: such an approach has been strongly suggested for several years | 04:26 |
| dtchen | superm1: leverage corporate pressure would probably make them more amenable | 04:26 |
| dtchen | leveraging* | 04:27 |
| === fabrice_sp__ is now known as fabrice_sp | ||
| superm1 | dtchen, yeah, unfortunately a lot of these projects get caught up in "their way of doing things", but definitely seeing a track record develop for the ffmpeg guys will make it easier to apply said pressure | 04:31 |
| superm1 | my own reasoning is I want to see all of these great players leave multiverse and still be functional with ffmpeg-debian or an ffmpeg-multiverse - whatever the user chooses to install | 04:32 |
| Amaranth | superm1: still need that mplayer release | 04:42 |
| superm1 | Amaranth, ehm? bug #? | 04:42 |
| Amaranth | superm1: Aren't they the same guys? | 04:42 |
| Amaranth | They haven't released mplayer in years either | 04:43 |

| superm1 | Amaranth, oh but there was an RC like a year ago for mplayer. that's some kind of release at least. it's better than mplayer-1.0~$(random snapshot) | 04:46 |

| siretart | morning folks! | 06:08 |
| fabrice_sp | g'morning siretart | 06:08 |
| siretart | superm1: this release is more an experiment, a review about that is pending. | 06:08 |
| siretart | superm1: AFAIUI Diego prefers the next release in 3 or 6 months. and a time based release model | 06:09 |
| siretart | superm1: as for other projects, at least vlc and xine already use the system ffmpeg. No idea what mythtv does, but for mplayer that's complicated, as mplayer uses too many libavutil internals and therefore requires that the system ffmpeg matches the internal copy | 06:10 |
| siretart | superm1: diego is working on that, however | 06:10 |
| siretart | hey fabrice_sp | 06:10 |
| fabrice_sp | o/ | 06:11 |
| superm1 | siretart, ah didnt realize that vlc and xine are already using system ffmpeg. | 06:15 |
| superm1 | siretart, i'll have a pretty good argument finally for mythtv upstream then provided we really do see releases every 3 or 6 months for ffmpeg | 06:15 |
| superm1 | siretart, which if they can sever that tie, can finally get mythtv in debian :) | 06:16 |
| siretart | superm1: do they use lots of ffmpeg interals, or do they restrict themselves to the external API? | 06:17 |
| superm1 | siretart, they support some demuxers that aren't actually in ffmpeg entirely, but otherwise i want to say for the most part they are using the external API | 06:17 |
| superm1 | i'm going to have a chat with the guy who does the ffmpeg merges into mythtv on a regular basis to get a more clear understanding | 06:18 |
| siretart | superm1: 2 things to check: they include only headers that are installed in /usr/include/libav* and they don't use any ff_* symbols but only av_* ones. | 06:19 |
| siretart | superm1: if yes, then you can (and probably should) patch the build system to use the system ffmpeg | 06:19 |
| siretart | if no, hit upstream with a stick (or better) | 06:19 |
| siretart | exception from that rule: it does really funny stuff like gst-ffmpeg (which I still haven't really understand yet) | 06:20 |
| superm1 | siretart, well until they can at least get the extra demuxers into upstream ffmpeg, i suspect that using a system ffmpeg will not turn out well. i'll poke around though for those 2 things you indicated to get a better idea | 06:20 |
| siretart | oh, wait, they've added demuxers to libavformat?! | 06:21 |
| superm1 | i'm not sure where the demuxers are living, let me see what the quote i just read about it was | 06:21 |
| superm1 | "<iamlindoro> superm1, My understanding (and a little bit of experience in hacking on it) is that the Program Stream and Transport Stream demuxers differ substantially from ffmpeg's own at this point, making using it as an outside lib very very hard" | 06:21 |
| siretart | that's.. unusual. if that's right, that stuff should definitly go upstream | 06:21 |
| superm1 | yeah that's what i was saying to him, but i'm waiting to hear from the guy normally doing ffmpeg merges to confirm | 06:22 |
| siretart | perhaps it might make sense from them to not use ffmpeg directly but use libxine as abstraction. but that might be even more work | 06:23 |
| NCommander | siretart, and superm1, to add more fun w/ ffmpeg, upstream actually did a stable release :-) | 06:23 |
| siretart | NCommander: tell news | 06:23 |
| NCommander | siretart, you didn't see the news? | 06:23 |
| siretart | NCommander: see bug #340303 | 06:24 |

| NCommander | ah | 06:24 |
| siretart | ;) | 06:24 |
| NCommander | siretart, so how did hell freeze over? (what made ffmpeg's devs do a stable release?) | 06:24 |
| siretart | that's more an experiment than a real stable release. | 06:25 |
| siretart | read: they don't really support it, and its already outdated | 06:25 |
| NCommander | siretart, its two days old ... | 06:26 |
| siretart | the release is from 03/03/2009 | 06:26 |
| siretart | that's over a week | 06:26 |
| siretart | libswscale can now be compiled as lgpl | 06:26 |
| siretart | in trunk (not in 0.5 release) | 06:27 |
| NCommander | o_o; | 06:27 |
| NCommander | things move fast ... | 06:27 |
| siretart | that's the problem with ffmpeg releases | 06:27 |
| siretart | trunk moves that fast (since years) that releases actually don't really make sense | 06:27 |
| NCommander | siretart, I get it, but it makes downstreams lives harder | 06:27 |
| siretart | diego decided to make time based snapshot releases. let's see if and how the next one will work out | 06:28 |
| siretart | NCommander: you now understand why mplayer svn has svn:externals to the ffmpeg svn (and vice-versa, to make the matter more spicy)? | 06:28 |
| siretart | did I mention at some point that I'd really appreciate help on packaging the two beasts? ;-) | 06:29 |
| NCommander | siretart, add to the legal status of ffmpeg, and its an entire mountian of fun. | 06:29 |
| siretart | the legal status is: LGPL, with some (optional) GPL bits | 06:29 |
| NCommander | siretart, w.r.t. to patents | 06:29 |
| NCommander | siretart, I'm packaging cross-compilers with newlib being built in a single pass ;-). I know hellish packages. | 06:29 |
| siretart | superm1: you did most of the works in ubuntus mplayer, right? | 06:29 |
| === fabrice_sp_ is now known as fabrice_sp | ||
| siretart | superm1: I've just uploaded http://wiki.tauware.de/~siretart/upload-queue/mplayer_1.0~rc2%2bsvn20090303-1.dsc to debian/unstable (possibly *very* close to the rc3 release) | 06:32 |
| siretart | superm1: perhaps we can (and should) merge that package to ubuntu as well, checkout the branch on git.debian.org | 06:33 |
| superm1 | siretart, i did a lot of work on it at some point i recall | 06:33 |
| superm1 | siretart, i'm not sure who has kept up with it as of late though | 06:34 |
| superm1 | siretart, git.debian.org? I thought that we were keeping it in bzr in ubuntu though. | 06:38 |
| superm1 | siretart, is there a reason that it cant just be synced from unstable? i'm assuming it's something related to extra build-depends that we add? | 06:38 |
| siretart | superm1: 2 reasons: ubuntu started an epoch war, and the debian package does not feature mencoder | 06:39 |
| siretart | the latter can be fixed by using the 'master.unstripped' branch (as opposed the 'master' branch) | 06:39 |
| siretart | re git, well pkg-multimedia (the debian multimedia team) settled on using git | 06:40 |
| superm1 | siretart, <shrug> i see | 06:40 |
| siretart | I'd really appreciate more ubuntu help in pkg-multimedia *hint* *wave*.. we already have there a bounch of ubuntu branches | 06:40 |
| superm1 | i wish i had more time to contribute up that way :( maybe later this year | 06:41 |

| AnAnt | Hello, I am maintaining sl-modem package. Regarding bug 518694, the co-maintainer suggested that we blacklist slamr, slusb, intel-8x0m & snd_via82xx_modem modules so that they don't get loaded too early during, then the init script will modprobe slamr (or slusb) , is that an acceptable solution ? | 07:14 |

| AnAnt | ubottu: ;) | 07:15 |
| soren | AnAnt: Why does the time at which they're loaded matter? | 07:16 |
| AnAnt | soren: well, there's what he said in README.Debian http://pastebin.com/m5ee2d615 | 07:18 |
| soren | AnAnt: Sounds like something that should really be fixed in the kernel. | 07:19 |
| soren | AnAnt: Failing that, could sl-modem's init script perhaps try rmmod/modprobing the modules? That saves us from having to blacklist stuff. | 07:20 |
| AnAnt | soren: ok, will try that | 07:21 |
| AnAnt | ok, another question, I want to create devices for slamr & slusb in postinst, but lintian says I should use MAKEDEV instead of mknod | 07:21 |
| AnAnt | when I run MAKEDEV slamr, it says that it doesn't know how to create devices for slamr | 07:22 |
| AnAnt | should I first modprobe slamr before attempting MAKEDEV ? | 07:22 |
| AnAnt | or what ? | 07:22 |
| geser | AnAnt: you probably need to get MAKEDEV patched for it | 07:24 |
| geser | do you need "static" devices? isn't udev created devices enough? | 07:25 |
| AnAnt | geser: you suggest that I add udev rules to create those devices ? | 07:26 |
| savvas | the manuals and documentation should be in Recommends or Suggests? | 07:27 |
| geser | AnAnt: yes | 07:27 |
| AnAnt | geser: dunno how to do this | 07:27 |
| geser | AnAnt: look at the existing rules.d files | 07:29 |
| AnAnt | geser: like this => KERNEL=="slamr", NAME="%k", GROUP="dialout", MODE="0660" ? | 07:29 |
| geser | AnAnt: I've to look up the syntax myself, but yes, something like that | 07:30 |
| AnAnt | so, KERNEL= is for loaded module name ? | 07:34 |
| soren | AnAnt: No, it's for the name the kernel assigns the device. | 07:58 |
| AnAnt | so, I should use DRIVERS= instead ? | 07:58 |
| soren | Umm.. Why? | 08:02 |
| slytherin | hi, anyone having trouble with pull-debian-source in jaunty latest? It asks me to install devscripts which I alreasy have installed. | 08:05 |

| ripps | maxb: Yeah, how do I do that? Everything seems to be working right. | 16:03 |
| maxb | Well, the first thing to look for is: Did a file of that name get built at all? Did it get installed in a different directory? | 16:03 |
| ripps | libtool: install: /usr/bin/install -c .libs/alarmplugin.lai /tmp/buildd/gmpc-plugins-0.18.0/debian/tmp//usr/local/lib/gmpc/plugins//alarmplugin.la | 16:04 |
| maxb | No package should be installing into /usr/local | 16:04 |
| ripps | ? it installed it in /usr/local/ | 16:04 |
| ripps | Hmm.... | 16:04 |
| ripps | let me edit the autogen.sh | 16:04 |
| joaopinto | erm, you shouldnt edit autogen.sh | 16:05 |
| joaopinto | you should use the --prefix parameter on configure | 16:05 |
| ripps | This autogen.sh is actually a bash script that clones a bunch of programs from git and runs autogen.sh on them individually. | 16:06 |
| ripps | Don't blame me, I didn't write it. | 16:06 |
| ripps | I'm only using this script because I don't want to have to manually update 20 individual plugins (w/ backports) on biweekly basis. | 16:11 |
| ripps | This way, I can update all the plugins the team ppa with a single source package. | 16:11 |
| === jmarsden_ is now known as jmarsden | ||
| maxb | That still doesn't explain why you'd be editing autogen.sh for this problem? | 16:30 |
| ripps | maxb: because I don't think the autogen.sh being passed throught he bash script is adding --prefix=/usr. | 16:32 |
| maxb | autogen.sh is the wrong time to be doing this. It should happen at configure time | 16:36 |
| maxb | Oh, but gmpc-alarm's autogen.sh doesn't respect NOCONFIGURE. Blech | 16:38 |

| joaopinto | hi | 18:46 |
| joaopinto | dpkg-buildpackage: set LDFLAGS to default value: -Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions | 18:46 |
| joaopinto | is there a way to force dpkg-buildpackage to not set LDFLAGS ? | 18:46 |
| slytherin | joaopinto: dpkg-buildpackage does not set them. check your debian/rules | 18:47 |
| joaopinto | slytherin, include /usr/share/cdbs/1/rules/debhelper.mk | 18:47 |
| slytherin | joaopinto: what about this line? | 18:48 |
| joaopinto | rewording, to tell CDBS not to touch LDFLAGS :P | 18:48 |
| joaopinto | slytherin, that line alone causes the LDFLAGS to be set | 18:48 |
| slytherin | joaopinto: I guess you will have to explicitely unset then in debian/rules | 18:48 |
| joaopinto | slytherin, already tried that, it introduces another problem, because it overrides LFLAGS during the "make" rule | 18:49 |
| joaopinto | erm LDFLAGs | 18:49 |
| slytherin | so what are you exactly trying to do? | 18:49 |
| joaopinto | I am building a package for an application, using cdbs, the application must not be compiled with "-Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions" | 18:50 |
| joaopinto | it provides a plugin component, such component does set LDFLAGS on it's make rules, however unseting LDFLAGS on debian/riles will override the plugin build phase also | 18:51 |
| joaopinto | slytherin, I am reading dpkg-buildpackage man page, it seems those are really defaults from it | 18:53 |
| slytherin | joaopinto: I don't think I am qualified enough to answer that question. | 18:53 |
| c_korn | does someone know when mok0 usually comes online? | 18:54 |
| joaopinto | well, it may be related to bug 138981 | 18:54 |

| slytherin | c_korn: is it in universe? | 18:57 |
| joaopinto | hum, this is really a dpkg-buildpackage problem :\ | 18:57 |
| slytherin | c_korn: if uploading is the only thing to be done, I can do that, tell me bug number. | 18:57 |

| rgreening | I forgot about DST. | 19:15 |
| fabrice_sp | lol | 19:16 |
| rgreening | thought it was for 3:30 localtime, but it was 4:30. I could have went to sleep and got up early.. oops :P | 19:16 |
| rgreening | oh well, at least I crawled into bed at 5 and slept for a few hours | 19:16 |
| fabrice_sp | that's what I did (wake up early), but it wasn't that early :-D | 19:17 |
| rgreening | im a zombie now though. | 19:17 |
| fabrice_sp | only few minutes?! | 19:17 |
| fabrice_sp | yeah: I can understand :-) | 19:17 |
| rgreening | tonight, lots of sleep | 19:17 |

| fabrice_sp | rgreening, you should be using gnome >:-) | 19:20 |
| rgreening | hehe | 19:20 |

| rgreening | I actually just installed ubuntustudio on my other laptop. it runs gnome | 19:21 |
| rgreening | not yet. I think I'll be waiting until I have sleep behind me | 19:22 |
| rgreening | clear head and all required to sponsor. | 19:22 |
| fabrice_sp | ohh: good :-) I have to install it in a vm, to check the software they ship | 19:22 |
| rgreening | :P | 19:22 |
| fabrice_sp | sounds reasonable, yes :-) | 19:22 |
| rgreening | ubuntustudio seems pretty nice. | 19:22 |
| rgreening | ScottK-desktop: ty for everything btw | 19:24 |
| * fabrice_sp is downloading the iso of ubuntustudio | 19:25 | |
| cjwatson | joaopinto: have you tried 'unexport LDFLAGS' at the top of debian/rules? that's the usual workaround for packages that have a problem with -Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions, and is done elsewhere | 19:35 |
| fabrice_sp | when changing a version to add build1, do we have to update the maintainer field to Ubuntu MOTU Developers <ubuntu-motu@lists.ubuntu.com>? | 19:35 |

| goshawk | well. how do i port it? :) | 21:37 |
| goshawk | the library is libconfig++6 | 21:37 |
| RainCT | goshawk: that's the case if either it's new and has entered Debian after DebianImportFreeze (and nobody requested a sync) or if it was removed from Ubuntu for some reason | 21:38 |

| goshawk | FreezeExceptionProcess says me to include the package, but should i include the orig.tar.gz, the diff.gz the .dsc, the .changes or all? If i should include all, but launchpad makes me upload only one, can i put them in a tar.gz packagE? | 22:16 |
| Laney | goshawk: debdiff is fine | 22:17 |

| goshawk | well it's new for ubuntu | 22:20 |
| goshawk | but not for debian | 22:20 |
| cjwatson | goshawk: Launchpad may only let you use one attachment at a time, but there's nothing to stop you uploading several attachments in succession | 22:20 |
| cjwatson | although for a Debian package I'd say that a debdiff against the Debian package would be perfectly fine, if indeed there is any debdiff | 22:20 |
| cjwatson | (I don't know the MOTU policies on this, this is just what I'd want if I were sponsoring it) | 22:21 |
| cjwatson | if there's no difference versus Debian I see no reason to bother including the package at all, personally | 22:22 |
| goshawk | ok uploading a debdiff too and pointing to the debian .dsc as a comment | 22:22 |
| cjwatson | all that does is create extra work for somebody who has to check that it is the same | 22:22 |
| Laney | give a link to the debian dsc | 22:22 |
| cjwatson | goshawk: what changes were necessary for Ubuntu? | 22:22 |
| Laney | I guess that would be ok | 22:22 |
| goshawk | cjwatson: just the changelog that fixes the LP bug, and the Maintainer field | 22:22 |
| goshawk | nothing more | 22:22 |
| goshawk | i did both | 22:22 |
| cjwatson | goshawk: no, don't do that | 22:22 |
| cjwatson | if that's all, we should just sync the Debian package | 22:23 |
| cjwatson | there is no need to create a delta for just that | 22:23 |
| goshawk | cjwatson: ok so i'm adding a comment saying to just sync with debian one :) | 22:23 |
| cjwatson | (the above comments do not constitute a freeze exception ... I haven't looked at it) | 22:23 |

| adelie42 | Hello, I am a long time hobby programmer, but new to this collaborative environment. I just spent today fixing some bugs, but I think I "did it wrong". I used 'apt-get source' to get the package, but now it looks like I should have gotten the source via 'bzr branch'. I have been following http://doc.bazaar-vcs.org/bzr.dev/en/mini-tutorial/index.html but still feel a bit lost. Any assistance? | 22:42 |
| nhandler | porthose: Done, but FYI, it really isn't a huge deal. Most motu-release members will ignore bugs in the Incomplete state | 22:43 |

| cjwatson | anyway, if it isn't in jaunty right now, no special action is required | 22:53 |
| nhandler | Ok, I just wanted to make sure. | 22:54 |
| cjwatson | might want to make sure it doesn't share the same binary names | 22:54 |
| cjwatson | which is the only thing that's really significant for upgrade purposes | 22:54 |
| nhandler | That is on my todo list of things to check | 22:55 |
