| nhandler | Hi emgent | 02:42 |
| nhandler | * emma | 02:42 |
| emma | Out of curiosity how come ubuntu comes with pulseaudio but not with pavucontrol ? | 02:43 |
| emma | hi there nhandler | 02:43 |
| nhandler | Well, for one thing, pavucontrol is in universe. | 02:44 |
| emma | nhandler: have you also found that pulseaudio is fragile and difficult to understand? | 02:45 |
| emma | maybe it isn't working correctly because only some of its components are installed? | 02:46 |
| emma | (I don't really know. I'm just trying to figure it out) | 02:47 |
| nhandler | emma: I really don't play much music/movies, so I don't deal with pulseaudio much. I'm also on a live cd right now, so I haven't had a chance to see how it is in jaunty | 02:47 |
| emma | That's cool. | 02:47 |
| * calc gets to learn git today | 02:47 | |
| calc | apparently gnome switched to git, so ooo-build did as well and moved to freedesktop.org in the process | 02:48 |
| emma | nhandler: There are some applications that are going to touch upon the ordinary users experience so much that I think in order to make Ubuntu a consistently attractive product, they really need to be given special attention. | 02:51 |

| slangasek | hrm. is there a way to push a stacked branch on LP that has a sane point of reference to the LP branch it was based on, instead of the original import branch? | 07:28 |
| wgrant | slangasek: --stacked-on http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~path/to/branch | 07:30 |
| slangasek | ah | 07:30 |
| wgrant | (note that that will only work for public branches) | 07:30 |
| slangasek | yeah; I hadn't had much luck finding the right syntax | 07:30 |
| slangasek | since there are so many ways to refer to LP branches, and none of the others seem to work. :) | 07:30 |
| wgrant | lp: won't work because it's probably resolved client-side. | 07:31 |
| wgrant | bzr+ssh: won't work because it requires auth. | 07:31 |
| slangasek | heh, of course, now that I try it bzr tells me the source branch doesn't support stacking | 07:31 |
| wgrant | That's fine. | 07:31 |
| wgrant | Or should be. | 07:31 |

| wgrant | That is one old repo format. | 07:32 |
| wgrant | Is there a good reason for that? | 07:33 |
| slangasek | because I don't know how to upgrade it ;) | 07:33 |
| wgrant | bzr upgrade lp:~ubuntu-core-dev/hal/ubuntu | 07:33 |
| slangasek | won't that upgrade it to the bleeding edge by default? | 07:33 |
| wgrant | No - 1.6 at most, IIRC. | 07:34 |
| wgrant | But let's see what's defualt now. | 07:34 |
| wgrant | pack-0.92 is the default. | 07:34 |
| wgrant | So anything >= bzr 0.92 can read it. | 07:35 |
| * slangasek tries 1.6 anyway, then | 07:35 | |
| wgrant | (this is Jaunty, with bzr 1.13~rc1) | 07:35 |
| wgrant | 1.6 is what I usually use. | 07:35 |
| slangasek | ok, this one seems to be working. I tried upgrading my local branch earlier and it whined at me, dunno what that difference is | 07:36 |
| wgrant | What was it whining about? | 07:38 |
| slangasek | let's hope my laptop doesn't crash or anything before it manages to finish upgrading, I'd prefer not to be picking up the shards remotely :P | 07:38 |
| slangasek | not knowing how to upgrade between format $foo and format $bar | 07:38 |
| wgrant | If that breaks, you do need something like lftp, yes. | 07:38 |

| slangasek | wgrant: nah, I was being too ambitious and trying to do --1.6.1-rich-root, and got a "Does not support nested trees" for my trouble | 08:00 |
| wgrant | slangasek: rich-root is useless for your case. | 08:01 |
| wgrant | (it's only needed for bzr-svn) | 08:01 |
| slangasek | trying with --1.6 now | 08:02 |
| slangasek | bzr: ERROR: Cannot convert to format <RepositoryFormatKnitPack5>. Does not support rich root data. | 08:07 |
| wgrant | slangasek: Which repo are you converting? lp:~ubuntu-core-dev/hal/ubuntu? | 08:08 |
| slangasek | yes | 08:08 |
| wgrant | slangasek: What does it say the repo format is if you bzr info it? LP says Knits 3, but that doesn't do rich roots either AFAICT. | 08:09 |
| t3rm1n4l | hi | 08:10 |
| t3rm1n4l | is there a seperate google summer of code channel here ? | 08:10 |
| slangasek | wgrant: Format <RepositoryFormatKnit3> | 08:11 |
| slangasek | well, in the "is deprecated" message | 08:12 |
| slangasek | after that, it says Standalone branch (format: unnamed) | 08:12 |
| wgrant | I'm checking it out to have a look at it myself (though it's not the same copy you're looking at, unfortunately), but it's of course being very slow because it's knits. | 08:14 |
| slangasek | if I ask the local branch, it says dirstate-with-subtree | 08:17 |
| wgrant | So it does. | 08:18 |
| wgrant | I just saw that. | 08:18 |
| wgrant | That is the problem. | 08:18 |
| * wgrant tries some things. | 08:18 | |
| wgrant | I can't upgrade dirstate-with-subtree to any format, but I *can* create a new 1.6.1-rich-root branch and pull into there. | 08:20 |
| slangasek | https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/bazaar/2008q3/046400.html | 08:20 |
| slangasek | so that's the recommended approach, yeah (and I think that's what we had to do for the d-i repo when upgrading it) | 08:20 |
| wgrant | Aha, exactly. | 08:20 |
| wgrant | And then you have to work out how to clobber the LP branch. | 08:20 |
| slangasek | yep | 08:21 |
| slangasek | are you doing that, or shall I? | 08:21 |
| wgrant | I'm not core-dev. | 08:21 |
| slangasek | oh | 08:21 |
| slangasek | then I guess I'll do it, won't I | 08:21 |
| wgrant | I suspect so. | 08:21 |
| wgrant | You might need an lftp to do it | 08:21 |
| wgrant | As I don't think --overwrite will change the format. | 08:21 |
| wgrant | But, hmmm... | 08:21 |
| wgrant | slangasek: Do you recall how you did it with d-i? | 08:23 |
| === fargiol`` is now known as fargiolas | ||
| slangasek | the overwriting part? not exactly | 08:23 |
| slangasek | we may have just deleted the branch out of LP and pushed | 08:23 |
| wgrant | Then you lose all the metadata and branch links. | 08:24 |
| wgrant | s/branch/bug/ | 08:24 |
| slangasek | then we may not have done that | 08:24 |
| slangasek | cjwatson: what was the trick to clobber the format of the d-i branch on the server when upgrading? | 08:25 |
| wgrant | Without knowing better, I'd remove the remote .bzr and push with --use-existing-dir. | 08:25 |
| slangasek | haha | 08:33 |

| wgrant | Hahah. | 08:34 |
| wgrant | --stacked-on= ? | 08:34 |
| slangasek | trying | 08:34 |
| slangasek | heh, actually, it created the .bzr before it failed, so it no longer wants to stack... | 08:35 |
| wgrant | Convenient! | 08:35 |
| slangasek | though it's still being awfully slow | 08:37 |
| wgrant | I'm a little concerned that '--stacked-on=' stacks on the current directory. | 08:39 |
| wgrant | I wonder if there is actually a way to force non-stacking... | 08:39 |
| slangasek | nope, that's bug #328146 :/ | 08:44 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 328146 in launchpad-bazaar "Pushing a non-stacked rich-root branch to a project using stacked non-rich-root branches fails" [Undecided,Invalid] https://launchpad.net/bugs/328146 | 08:44 |
| wgrant | slangasek: Ah. | 08:46 |
| wgrant | slangasek: Is the push working? | 08:46 |
| slangasek | I restarted to fiddle; let me see | 08:46 |
| slangasek | seems to be working, though slower than I expected | 08:49 |
| wgrant | slangasek: You should probably get ~registry to unset the dev focus, as that's clearly not right any more. | 08:55 |
| wgrant | Which will mean they won't autostack at all. | 08:55 |
| slangasek | I don't follow you | 09:00 |
| slangasek | you want the upstream branch to not be marked as 'development' as a workaround? | 09:00 |
| wgrant | lp:hal is a vcs-imports mirror which is three years out of date. It's misleading, and it's causing the stacking problem, so it's good all-round to kill it. | 09:00 |
| slangasek | oh, hmm, it is rather old isn't it | 09:01 |
| cjwatson | slangasek: pretty sure we removed the remote branch | 09:01 |
| wgrant | Since they moved to git, I presume. | 09:01 |
| cjwatson | (d-i) | 09:01 |
| slangasek | cjwatson: ok - so we just dealt with the loss of any bug metadata? | 09:01 |
| slangasek | (and merge metadata) | 09:02 |
| slangasek | s/merge/merge proposal/ | 09:02 |
| wgrant | There probably weren't BMPs back then to lose. | 09:02 |
| slangasek | "back then" - it was in February... :) | 09:02 |
| wgrant | Oh. | 09:02 |
| cjwatson | slangasek: I don't think I cared that much about bug metadata on the Ubuntu trunk, no | 09:02 |
| cjwatson | and I don't think there were any merge proposals at the time | 09:03 |
| * slangasek nods | 09:03 | |
| wgrant | I wonder how many other dirstate-with-subtree branches there are around. | 09:03 |
| wgrant | ~bzr seems to have liked to forget about that format - it's a dead end and isn't listed even in the legacy formats list. | 09:03 |
| slangasek | hmm, new branch is there, wonder what it is | 09:05 |
| wgrant | LP hasn't scanned it yet, apparently. | 09:06 |
| slangasek | repository: Packs 5 rich-root (adds stacking support, requires bzr 1.6.1) | 09:06 |
| slangasek | and darn speedy to checkout, now \o/ | 09:06 |
| wgrant | Excellent,. | 09:06 |
| wgrant | And now, you can stack on it! | 09:06 |
| wgrant | Yep. Knits are awfully slow. | 09:06 |
| cjwatson | dirstate-with-subtree was what you got when bzr-svn first arrived, I think | 09:07 |
| cjwatson | so I suspect "several" | 09:07 |
| * slangasek nods :/ | 09:07 | |
| wgrant | :( | 09:08 |
| wgrant | At least the conversion process is worked out now. | 09:08 |
| slangasek | yes, it just requires patience :-P | 09:08 |
| wgrant | LP still hasn't picked up the format switch. | 09:08 |
| wgrant | Maybe it won't until there's a new rev. | 09:08 |
| slangasek | but the initial investment was worth it, lp:~vorlon/hal/lp.277589 is light now | 09:09 |

| wgrant | slangasek: What do you make of that scary-looking error on the branch page? | 09:10 |
| wgrant | I had a similar one (but for file://) before, when I pushed a branch stacked on a local branch. | 09:10 |
| cjwatson | is the "stacked on" meant to show the lp: bit? LP doesn't normally | 09:10 |
| wgrant | cjwatson: It does. | 09:10 |
| slangasek | wgrant: heh, apparently I stacked it on https: instead of http; it worked, but I should probably correct that | 09:11 |
| wgrant | I filed a bug to make it do so. | 09:11 |
| cjwatson | ah. yes, I see it does in some other contexts but not all | 09:11 |
| wgrant | cjwatson: Those are regarded as bugs - I've filed a few, and they were fixed within a few days. | 09:11 |
| cjwatson | e.g. https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~vorlon/hal/lp.277589 has "Branch: lp:~vorlon/hal/lp.277589" but the large-font title has "~vorlon/hal/lp.277589" | 09:11 |
| wgrant | Ah. Hm. | 09:11 |
| * wgrant hopes slangasek just deleted that. | 09:12 | |
| slangasek | yep | 09:12 |
| slangasek | redoing with stacking against http to see if lp likes that better | 09:12 |
| wgrant | It detected it fine, but wouldn't mirror. There's a bug there somewhere. | 09:12 |
| cjwatson | right, armel uninstallables down to 48, almost all of those should disappear over the next couple of publisher cycles | 09:12 |
| slangasek | yay | 09:13 |
| wgrant | cjwatson: Is lpia super-installability entirely fixed? | 09:13 |
| slangasek | wgrant: the page looks less errorful now? | 09:13 |
| wgrant | slangasek: Indeed, but still not scanned. | 09:14 |
| slangasek | sure | 09:14 |
| wgrant | There we go. | 09:14 |
| slangasek | do merge proposals automatically get emailed to the branch owner even if you indicate a different reviewer? | 09:15 |
| wgrant | slangasek: They will be emailed to people subscribed to merge proposals. | 09:16 |
| wgrant | slangasek: Check the first <select> on the core-dev subscription on the target. | 09:16 |
| wgrant | By default the owner will get them. | 09:16 |

| wgrant | mdz: Synaptics touchpad + basic Microsoft optical mouse. | 10:13 |
| wgrant | Only using LVDS, not VGA. | 10:13 |
| mdz | Nafallo: are you docking or using VGA out? | 10:15 |
| Nafallo | mdz: not that stays in the laptop when I suspend. | 10:15 |
| Nafallo | mdz: neither. just using the laptop screen. | 10:15 |
| mdz | I think at least some of the chatter on bug 315965 is about this bug | 10:15 |

| slangasek | should I post a .deb somewhere of 2.6.3-0ubuntu2 built with gcc 4.3.2-2ubuntu14 for people to try? | 10:16 |
| slangasek | (that's the toolchain originally used to build the 2.6.1-1ubuntu1 that worked) | 10:16 |
| Nafallo | slangasek: that's the one that fixed it for you yes? | 10:23 |
| slangasek | Nafallo: downgrading to 2.6.1-1ubuntu1 worked; rebuilding 2.6.1-1ubuntu1 with the current toolchain reintroduced the crash; upgrading to the current package fixes it again for me (so far as I've seen) | 10:24 |
| Nafallo | slangasek: might be worth trying indeed. | 10:25 |
| cjwatson | mdz: since you were concerned about it in yesterday's meeting: armel uninstallables are now down to 16, with three or four more due to disappear shortly, and the remainder are not a concern for the mobile project | 10:27 |
| cjwatson | (16 in main, that is) | 10:27 |
| mdz | cjwatson: great news, thank you | 10:27 |
| cjwatson | fixing uninstallables is a bit like being a surgeon confronted with somebody covered in blood. Usually the actual problem is in a rather small number of places :-) | 10:28 |
| slangasek | Nafallo: http://people.ubuntu.com/~vorlon/238035/ | 10:30 |
| mdz | ConnectBot on the G1 has turned out to be a very handy debugging tool | 10:30 |
| mdz | I can walk around the flat with a live screen+gdb session in my pocket | 10:30 |
| slangasek | :-) | 10:31 |
| mdz | I'm running out of ideas for how to reproduce this blasted thing | 10:31 |
| mdz | at least in Nafallo's case, it doesn't require leaving the system asleep for very long | 10:32 |
| mdz | Nafallo: how long would you estimate between sleep and wake? | 10:32 |
| mdz | I've done a few dozen VT switches and haven't been able to break it | 10:33 |
| mdz | likewise for suspend/resume | 10:33 |
| Nafallo | mdz: about 40mins to an 2h... | 10:33 |
| Nafallo | that's just of the top of my head calculating on tube times fwiw... | 10:34 |
| mdz | that's better than 8 hours, but still not very hopeful for analysis if it's part of the formula | 10:34 |
| mdz | nafallo,wgrant: i386 or amd64? | 10:40 |
| wgrant | mdz: i386 | 10:41 |
| Nafallo | mdz: x86_64 | 10:41 |
| mdz | wgrant: and your symptoms match bug 328035? | 10:41 |

| mdz | the rest of us are all running amd64 I think | 10:41 |
| wgrant | mdz: X crashes after VT switch and on resume, and I sighted a glibc stacktrace on one occasion. I think so. | 10:42 |
| crdlb | hmm, am I the only one on radeon (RV200) with this bug? | 10:52 |
| slangasek | crdlb: if you mean the bug described above, then you're almost certainly seeing a different bug with similar superficial symptoms | 10:54 |
| crdlb | but it's identical; I even see the glibc bt sometimes | 10:54 |
| slangasek | that's really not meaningful. glibc has a generic error handler that generates backtraces when it detects memory corruption. | 10:55 |
| crdlb | k, I'll file a separate bug then; it just seems like quite a coincidence | 10:56 |
| mdz | if they are the same, that would be very bad news indeed | 10:58 |
| mdz | I still have hope that this is isolated to the driver | 10:58 |

| magcius | Can we make more tools in Ubuntu use PolicyKit instead of gksu/gksudo? | 15:31 |
| magcius | Or is that a GNOME decision. | 15:31 |
| asac | magcius: its probably a patch decision ;) | 15:31 |
| cjwatson | apw: what maxb said. Since it only affects people who've done manual filesystem changes anyway, and who would already have had to run grub-install on upgrade from <=intrepid, I'm not that worried | 15:31 |
| magcius | asac, I'm not in favor of downstream patches. | 15:31 |
| asac | magcius: i didnt talk about downstream | 15:32 |
| magcius | asac, then what do you mean by a patch decision? | 15:32 |
| cjwatson | apw: (i.e. intrepid's grub couldn't boot ext4 anyway) | 15:32 |
| asac | magcius: i mean if someone provides patches its likely that upstream will accept them | 15:33 |
| magcius | May I ask how gksudo is integrated into the system utilities? | 15:33 |
| cjwatson | kirkland: ubuntu-virt-server is uninstallable on everything except amd64 and i386. Should the kvm dependency be removed except on those architectures, or should ubuntu-virt-server simply be built for only amd64 and i386? | 15:34 |
| cjwatson | for the most part gksudo "integration" just consists of using it in a .desktop file, or in rare cases of a wrapper script that calls gksudo | 15:35 |
| cjwatson | mostly we consider this a bug | 15:35 |
| asac | magcius: i dont understand that question. | 15:36 |
| magcius | cjwatson, thanks. | 15:36 |
| asac | heh ok. | 15:36 |

| GuyFromHell | hey all, i'm trying to make a patch for a package but `debuild -S` keeps croaking on http://rafb.net/p/UYndq787.html | 22:11 |
| GuyFromHell | although i can `echo "foo" | gpg --sign` properly and it says the correct key | 22:11 |
| Mithrandir | don't worry about that, if you just want to create a patch you don't need to sign it. | 22:12 |
| Mithrandir | though in general, make sure your entry in the changelog exactly matches what's on your key | 22:13 |
| GuyFromHell | it indeed does :/ | 22:13 |
| GuyFromHell | I don't need it even if i'm patching a patch? | 22:13 |
| GuyFromHell | or should i not even do that in the first place; just make a new patch.. | 22:13 |
| Mithrandir | patching patches is generally icky and it's more readable to just create a new patch | 22:14 |
| GuyFromHell | I figured it out, my secret key was for "Name (comment) <email>"; not "Name <email>" | 22:15 |
| GuyFromHell | alright, i'll try this again making a new patch instead; thanks | 22:16 |
| Mithrandir | #ubuntu-motu might be a better channel for asking those kinds of questions, btw. | 22:17 |

| zyga | I have found something that might be familiar to python developers using python3 and especially pydoc | 23:26 |
| zyga | apparently our pydoc from python3.0 package is utterly bronken when generating module documentation | 23:27 |
| zyga | a simple one-line patch fixes pydoc | 23:28 |
| zyga | the sad thing is that nobody noticed this so late in python3000 process | 23:28 |
| patapouf | Hi, I'm looking into some help to use autogen. | 23:28 |
| jldugger | davmor2: i probably need to update my jaunty install, but last i checked wacom was workable | 23:28 |
| zyga | it's even more ironic when you realize that 2to3 is actually automatically fixing it! :-( | 23:29 |
| zyga | but anyway | 23:29 |
| zyga | I'd like to share my patch | 23:29 |

| ArthurLiu | hi, http://socghop.appspot.com/org/show/google/gsoc2009/ubuntu ?! | 23:31 |
| davmor2 | jldugger: is your xorg.conf similar to the one in the link above? | 23:32 |
| davmor2 | jldugger: the stylus is amazingly accurate it only seems to be the mouse that is having issues | 23:35 |
| jldugger | ArthurLiu: im told whoever applied withdrew their application | 23:35 |
| jldugger | ive no idea who applied, but if it's been given to another project it seems unlikely it'll come back | 23:36 |
| jldugger | ArthurLiu: consider it an opportunity to work very closely with upstream | 23:36 |
| ArthurLiu | a lot of people are going to be really confused | 23:36 |
| jldugger | why? | 23:36 |
| ArthurLiu | well, you already had a few students at least interested | 23:37 |
| ArthurLiu | someone should update the wiki page and send a notice on the soc mailing list | 23:37 |
| jldugger | SoC is always a speculative thing; there's no guarentee that ubuntu would be accepted if it applied | 23:38 |
| ArthurLiu | well, you *were* accepted this year | 23:38 |
| jldugger | unfortunately, it seems that none of the ubuntu governance attempts to monitor SoC | 23:38 |
| ArthurLiu | never understood that | 23:39 |
| jldugger | its not quite clear who gets the money | 23:39 |
| jldugger | i dont think you can cut a check to the ubuntu foundation | 23:39 |

| jldugger | 500 per student could mean 5000 or more | 23:40 |
| ArthurLiu | well, if you *really* don't know, you can just give them back to the mentors.. | 23:41 |
| jldugger | im assuming that whoever (no clue who) applied on ubuntu's behalf decided they didn't have the time to mentor | 23:41 |
| ArthurLiu | one "maria_r" | 23:42 |
| ArthurLiu | "Maria Randazzo" | 23:42 |
| jldugger | taking the 5000 and commissioning a mentor from MOTU or whatnot seems reasonable | 23:43 |
| jldugger | no clue about tax but it seems like a nightmare | 23:43 |
| jldugger | you would think the foundation would be a non-profit capable of handling this but i challenge you to find two foundation board members who have any idea the finances | 23:44 |

| BUGabundo1 | question: everyone knows that most SiS HW sucks on most Linux distros, but I've seen a few working flawlessly (specially wired and wifi card, asac). could the drivers be fetch from those distros and improve ubuntu, or are most of those closed drivers handed over by the manufacture to the Distro? | 23:46 |

| directhex | BUGabundo1, core issue: nobody cares about SiS | 23:47 |
| davmor2 | jldugger: That's what I was thinking. But how would you go about enabling the mouse part now then? | 23:47 |
| BUGabundo1 | I know that a Portuguese distro (CaixaMagica) based on mandriva is one example | 23:47 |
| ArthurLiu | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GoogleSoC2009 and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GoogleSoC2009/Ideas | 23:47 |
| ArthurLiu | that's a shame, there were some intriguing projects | 23:47 |
| BUGabundo1 | directhex: I guess.. I know it sucks too... but many pt users are getting this HW and can't use Ubuntu | 23:48 |
| directhex | BUGabundo1, specific bugs help | 23:48 |
| ArthurLiu | I suppose some of them could take refuge at Debian :) | 23:48 |
| BUGabundo1 | directhex: just let me get my hands on one, and ill file all you want! any thing specific ? I did file a few about wifi a few weeks back | 23:49 |
| BUGabundo1 | but the user/owner did what most SiS users do... post on LP or foruns and then move to another distro | 23:50 |
| BUGabundo1 | since nobody helps | 23:50 |
| asac | usually other distros shouldnt be much better if the drivers are not there | 23:51 |
| asac | unless its a special distro focussed on SiS or something | 23:51 |
| asac | BUGabundo1: which distro are they moving to? | 23:51 |
| BUGabundo1 | most aren't | 23:51 |
| BUGabundo1 | I know that CaixaMagica works | 23:52 |
| BUGabundo1 | we have this student give way laptops (like OPLC) | 23:52 |
| slangasek | ArthurLiu: ok. and where does the dangling link http://socghop.appspot.com/org/show/google/gsoc2009/ubuntu come from? | 23:53 |
| BUGabundo1 | I'll see if I can get some data from a livecd | 23:54 |
| BUGabundo1 | but since most wifi or wired cards won't either get an IP or if they do, not have network access | 23:54 |
| BUGabundo1 | its hard to post in real time | 23:54 |
| ArthurLiu | slangasek, a page I hadn't refreshed, but I suppose that by know, there should be a dozen places over the internet linking to it | 23:54 |
