| mathiaz | kirkland: do you remember what's the state of acpi in jaunty? Is acpid supposed to be running? | 00:01 |
|---|---|---|
| mathiaz | kirkland: it seems that the jaunty installer doesn't install acpid by default anymore | 00:02 |
| mathiaz | kirkland: which explains why virsh shutdown vm-id doesn't work | 00:02 |
| kirkland | mathiaz: i have it installed on my desktop | 00:02 |
| kirkland | mathiaz: perhaps it got dropped as a recommends somwhere? | 00:02 |
| kirkland | mathiaz: and we need to re-add it to the server seed? | 00:02 |
| mathiaz | kirkland: IIRC there is some code in the installer that checks if /proc/acpi/ is available and if so installs acpid. | 00:03 |
| cjwatson | yes, in hw-detect. It only works if it's on the CD. | 00:03 |
| cjwatson | there was substantial conversation recently about acpid being obsoleted by other packages | 00:03 |
| cjwatson | slangasek might remember more | 00:03 |
| mathiaz | cjwatson: oh. And acpi is not the -server isos. | 00:04 |
| cr3 | strictly speaking, what's the difference between a "package archive" and a "repository"? | 00:04 |
| cjwatson | cr3: do you believe that there is a difference? | 00:06 |
| thiebaude | i thought older packages are kept in the archive | 00:06 |
| cjwatson | mathiaz: acpi != acpid | 00:06 |
| cr3 | cjwatson: not to my knowledge, but I was wondering if these were strictly synonyms or whether there might be a slight difference | 00:06 |
| cjwatson | thiebaude: that would be a pretty confusing term to use for Ubuntu given that it's archive.ubuntu.com | 00:07 |
| cjwatson | cr3: they're both somewhat fuzzy terms but I would regard them as essentially synonyms, unless perhaps there's some clarifying context | 00:07 |
| cr3 | cjwatson: for example, maybe archive.ubuntu.com/ is the repository and maybe ubuntu/ is the archive. just thinking out loud | 00:07 |
| cjwatson | no | 00:07 |
| mathiaz | cjwatson: well - neither acpi, nor acpid is on the -server iso. | 00:07 |
| thiebaude | then current packages are not kept in a archive :) | 00:07 |
| cjwatson | thiebaude: current packages are, as it happens, kept in an archive. | 00:08 |
| cjwatson | "archive" and "repository" are two more-or-less synonymous terms for something you point apt at. | 00:08 |
| mathiaz | kirkland: I think acpid should be put back on the -server iso. | 00:08 |
| mathiaz | kirkland: IIUC it's an important component of the suspend/resume for server spec. | 00:09 |
| cjwatson | except that isn't quite accurate because you actually point apt at a single distribution and a set of components within an archive, in each sources.list line | 00:09 |
| cr3 | cjwatson: might it make a difference when you point apt to a series (.../ubuntu jaunty main) and when you point apt to a directory (.../ubuntu ./)? | 00:09 |
| cjwatson | cr3: man sources.list | 00:09 |
| kirkland | mathiaz: yeah, i concur | 00:09 |
| thiebaude | cjwatson: i think i'am starting to understand | 00:09 |
| kirkland | mathiaz: you wanna do that? or did you want me to? | 00:10 |
| mathiaz | kirkland: you can do it - I was wondering why acpi stopped working in my freshly installed jaunty kvm guests. | 00:11 |
| mathiaz | kirkland: you may wanna wait afte beta though. | 00:11 |
| cjwatson | cr3: which uses "archive" consistently for both meanings, but AFAIK you could replace "archive" with "repository" throughout and get the same meaning | 00:11 |
| mathiaz | kirkland: I don't think it's a beta blocker. | 00:11 |
| kirkland | slangasek: when would it be safe for us to add acpid back to the server-ship seed? | 00:11 |
| cr3 | cjwatson: ok, thanks for the clarification | 00:12 |
| cjwatson | thiebaude: Debian has archive.debian.org, which holds archived versions of no-longer-current Debian releases. The name clash with archive.ubuntu.com is perhaps slightly unfortunate, but we were aware of it at the time and decided that it was not terribly important | 00:13 |
| cjwatson | thiebaude: the equivalent for Ubuntu is old-releases.ubuntu.com | 00:14 |
| cjwatson | and old versions of packages that weren't necessarily final versions in a given release are kept on Launchpad | 00:14 |
| kirkland | mathiaz: it only needs to be in server-ship, right? | 00:14 |
| cjwatson | Sigh. Bugs should not have a user-visible importance. | 00:14 |
| mathiaz | kirkland: yes | 00:14 |
| cjwatson | It just leads to people making irrelevant complaints about their bug having the "wrong" importance. | 00:15 |
| cjwatson | (I'm trolling slightly ...) | 00:15 |
| slangasek | kirkland: "back"? | 00:27 |
| slangasek | kirkland: ah, so it's available for apt-install. Mmm, do it now and I can get it included for beta. | 00:28 |
| slangasek | mathiaz: ^^ | 00:29 |
| slangasek | it's not a beta blocker, but I've just now rerolled ubuntu-server and can do so again if you want this in | 00:29 |
| kirkland | slangasek: committing ... | 00:35 |
| kirkland | mathiaz: slangasek: committed and pushed | 00:36 |

| TwoToneSpirit | So, if one wants to get their feet wet in Ubuntu-devel, what's the language of choice to learn? | 01:09 |
| ebroder | "Makefiles" | 01:10 |
| TwoToneSpirit | ebroder: Was that meant for me? | 01:12 |
| === Snova_ is now known as Snova | ||
| ebroder | TwoToneSpirit: Yes, but somewhat jokingly | 01:14 |
| ebroder | TwoToneSpirit: Makefiles are the core of Debian/Ubuntu packages, although there are usualy several layers abstracting that away | 01:15 |
| ebroder | Ubuntu uses Python fairly extensively for a lot of the custom development that's done | 01:15 |
| TwoToneSpirit | I currently regard PHP as my primary language | 01:16 |
| ebroder | That being said, there are packages that use just about every language imaginable - I doubt there are many languages that wouldn't be useful | 01:16 |
| cjwatson | TwoToneSpirit: I find Ubuntu development is a heck of a lot easier if you're prepared to work in several different languages | 01:16 |
| TwoToneSpirit | I hear that Python is a natural next step from PHP for many people | 01:16 |
| cjwatson | people do ask this question a lot here, but there is no good answer to it | 01:16 |
| TwoToneSpirit | cjwatson: Well that's why I asked about getting my feet wet :-) | 01:16 |
| cjwatson | Python is used a lot for many things in Ubuntu, but in order to work with packaging you'll also need the rudiments of GNU Make and the Unix shell | 01:17 |
| calc | i finally have all my upstream bugs linked :) | 01:17 |
| cjwatson | and familiarity with C, Perl, and maybe C++ is unlikely to hurt either | 01:17 |
| cjwatson | it's much more important to have the skill of picking up languages than it is to know any particular language, I find :) | 01:17 |
| cjwatson | as ebroder says, distributions are made up of a wide variety of software written in nearly every language under the sun | 01:18 |
| calc | aiui some languages are more evil (lisp) than others, heh | 01:18 |
| IntuitiveNipple | The best language to learn for packaging, is Telepathy :) | 01:18 |
| ebroder | Aww! I <3 lisp. Well, Scheme | 01:18 |
| cjwatson | there are mini-languages in Ubuntu that exist for a single purpose | 01:19 |

| Amaranth | and most of them are upstream, nice | 03:00 |
| calc | for some reason the number of bugs not triaged shows as 36 but when you click on it you can only see 35 | 03:00 |
| calc | i wonder if one of the bugs is hidden from me for 'security' reasons | 03:00 |
| Amaranth | you aren't in the ubuntu-bugs team? | 03:01 |
| calc | yea, but even then you can't see security bugs until subscribed | 03:01 |

| calc | kees: upstream bug report claims there are 36 but it only shows me 35 | 03:02 |
| Amaranth | calc: I used to be in some team that had access to security bugs | 03:02 |
| calc | kees: if there is something that is marked special i probably need to be subscribed to it | 03:02 |
| kees | calc: I see 35. Perhaps upstream report is out of date? | 03:02 |
| Amaranth | thought it was ubuntu-bugs | 03:02 |
| calc | kees: maybe so, i thought it was always up to date | 03:02 |
| kees | hm, dunno | 03:03 |
| calc | i can see if i can find someone on the launchpad team to check it out for me | 03:03 |
| calc | kees: thanks for checking for me :) | 03:04 |
| kees | calc: sure, no problem. | 03:05 |
| maco | Amaranth: bug-control can see private-not-CVE bugs | 03:05 |
| maco | dunno about CVEs though | 03:05 |
| Amaranth | that was it | 03:05 |
| Amaranth | I stupidly let it expire | 03:05 |
| calc | maco: aiui bug-control can't see private bugs marked as security, not just cve bugs | 03:05 |
| Amaranth | along with motu | 03:05 |
| cjwatson | by definition private bugs are only visible to their subscribers | 03:06 |
| maco | oh ok | 03:06 |
| maco | ive never seen a security one that didnt say cve | 03:06 |
| calc | cjwatson: ah so it could be a bug on OOo is private that does not have bug-control or security team on it? | 03:06 |
| cjwatson | this is not to say that ubuntu-bugcontrol or some related team is not subscribed to some private bugs | 03:06 |
| maco | cjwatson: bug control can see them too to check the crash reports | 03:06 |
| cjwatson | calc: entirely possible | 03:06 |
| calc | cjwatson: you don't happen to have master access or something like that do you? :) | 03:07 |
| kees | private bugs are private -- only subscribers can see them. most private bugs start their life as private security bugs, and as such, security is subscribed to them, even after they're unmarked security and only the security team can unsubscribe the security team, so we tend to be able to see any private bug. | 03:07 |
| cjwatson | maco: only because apport explicitly subscribes "crash bug triagers for main packages" or whatever it is to those bugs | 03:07 |
| kees | lag | 03:07 |
| cjwatson | calc: no | 03:07 |
| calc | cjwatson: ok | 03:07 |

| sbeattie | does the apport-retracer process a bug if it's already been marked as a duplicate of another bug? | 07:09 |
| pitti | sbeattie: no, those are ignored | 07:16 |
| sbeattie | pitti: okay, thanks. | 07:18 |
| sbeattie | pitti: BTW, it'd be useful to extend apport-collect to take a crash file as an argument. | 07:19 |
| pitti | sbeattie: that would attach the info in the .crash file to a bug report? | 07:20 |
| pitti | sbeattie: I'd rather have apport-{gtk,qt,cli} do that, or a separate script | 07:20 |
| pitti | sbeattie: there's an existing bug report for that, too | 07:21 |
| sbeattie | pitti: have apport-{gtk,qt,cli} attach to an existing report rather than always create a new one? | 07:21 |
| pitti | something like that | 07:21 |
| pitti | well, I don't particularly mind which does which | 07:22 |
| sbeattie | pitti: sure, I'm not picky about the solution; I just dislike currently creating a duplicate bug so I can do the apport collection when I've recreated a bug on something that didn't get one to begin with for whatever reason (in this case, failure of mdadm while booting) | 07:23 |

| ubottu | Ubuntu bug 347370 in hal "REGRESSION: volume labels have underscores instead of spaces" [Low,Confirmed] | 08:23 |
| slangasek | so they're not set by default, but referenced if someone sets them, hmm | 08:23 |
| Keybuk | right, but the reason we never did that originally is because filesystem labels are trivial to clash | 08:24 |
| Keybuk | if you have two disks with LABEL=root | 08:24 |
| slangasek | yes | 08:24 |
| Keybuk | it's not just that the wrong one might be mounted | 08:24 |
| slangasek | I don't know why we're doing that, then | 08:24 |
| Keybuk | but that the one that is mounted is picked AT RANDOM | 08:24 |
| slangasek | but it worries me a bit less than the idea that we were doing this on all new installs | 08:24 |
| Keybuk | it's fine if the user uses LABEL= themselves, and puts that in fstab themselves (which is why we've always supported it) | 08:24 |
| Keybuk | but any automatically generated file imo should never use it | 08:25 |
| slangasek | sbeattie: no clue if it's expected, that's pitti's department :) | 08:25 |

| lool | TheMuso: It regularly exits with "E: cpulimit.c: Received request to terminate due to CPU overload." particularly on sites with flash; there's a wiki page on the pulseaudio wiki to debug such issues which suggest it might be driver related; http://pulseaudio.org/wiki/BrokenSoundDrivers however doesn't work for me as the proposed test case spawns pulseaudio for me | 08:42 |
| Nafallo | slangasek: X didn't start with the valgrind madness, so had to revert. | 08:43 |

| soren | How does grub figure out on which partition to look for its configuration file? Does it have the partition ID hardwired into the stage 1.5 loader? | 09:18 |

| seb128 | liw: hey, do you still work on computer-janitor? | 09:23 |
| liw | seb128, sure | 09:24 |
| seb128 | liw: you seem to not be subscribed to its bugs on launchpad, could you consider the patch on bug #344704 or at least comment? the application is one of the few poorly translated in jaunty right now due to that | 09:25 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 344704 in computer-janitor "[I18N] Wrong translation domain in ui_gtk.py, some translations not shown" [Undecided,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/344704 | 09:25 |
| cjwatson | Keybuk: the installer now uses them if they're explicitly set (but otherwise uses UUIDs, as obviously labels aren't suitable for automatic assignment); furthermore, it will not allow you to proceed past the partitioner if you have any duplicate labels | 09:25 |
| liw | seb128, I am getting all its bug mail, certainly; I'll apply the patch as soon as I get around to it | 09:25 |
| seb128 | liw: ok, launchpad is still weird to me your name is not on the list on the side of this page for example, anyway thanks for considering that one | 09:27 |
| seb128 | liw: would be nice to get it fixed just after beta so translators have time to test it and make sure it works good and update their translations if required | 09:27 |
| Keybuk | cjwatson: why does it do that though? | 09:29 |
| Keybuk | when we originally discussed this back on Montréal, we explicitly ruled out ever writing LABEL= by default | 09:29 |
| cjwatson | Keybuk: because labels are a lot more readable, and if the user explicitly set some, then it's probably because they wanted to use it | 09:29 |
| Keybuk | since labels are most likely to be the filesystem's purpose | 09:30 |
| Keybuk | ie. "/" or "root" or "home" or "/home" | 09:30 |
| Keybuk | they are much more likely to clash if you put an extra disk in your machine | 09:30 |
| Keybuk | or even just a usb key | 09:30 |
| Keybuk | and then you end up with random mount behaviour | 09:30 |
| Keybuk | we agreed that if a user wanted to use a label in /etc/fstab, they could put it their themselves | 09:30 |
| cjwatson | sigh. | 09:30 |
| Keybuk | but that we would never put them there automatically | 09:30 |
| cjwatson | ok, I'll revert it post-beta. | 09:30 |
| Keybuk | thanks | 09:30 |
| cjwatson | and try to explain to debian-boot@ what's going on | 09:31 |
| cjwatson | because this was explicitly requested there upon trying to get the UUID changes into Debian | 09:31 |
| Keybuk | I really just think seeding mount-by-label automatically is dangerous | 09:31 |
| Keybuk | if I plug a usb key in, it's generally slightly more likely to win than the sata disk controller | 09:31 |
| Keybuk | but not always | 09:31 |
| Keybuk | so the random behaviour is just too much of a risk | 09:31 |
| cjwatson | I'd only remembered the duplicate label issue | 09:34 |
| seb128 | TheMuso: do we really need this orca menu item? it adds a menu category for something which opens a command line tool ... | 09:34 |
| cjwatson | Keybuk: I think I'll add a partman/mount_by_label preseed or similar | 09:34 |
| cjwatson | defaulting to false | 09:34 |
| Keybuk | that'd be ok | 09:35 |
| Keybuk | I don't mind if a user takes an action to use them, then it's their fault | 09:35 |
| Keybuk | and when they file a bug, we can go "aha! but you did foo, so don't do that then" | 09:35 |
| cjwatson | do we need to unwind this for beta to avoid having to support upgraded systems? | 09:35 |
| Keybuk | I'd just release note it | 09:35 |
| cjwatson | THE RIGHT ANSWER | 09:35 |
| Keybuk | when did the installer start using labels? | 09:36 |
| cjwatson | 24 Feb | 09:36 |
| Keybuk | yeah, I'd just release note that - say that systems installed may use label in /etc/fstab - and that this could cause unexpected behaviour if another disk with the same label is added later | 09:37 |
| Keybuk | with instruction on how to find the uuid of the device | 09:37 |
| cjwatson | can you file a bug on partman-target and ubuntu-release-notes? | 09:37 |
| cjwatson | I got five hours sleep last night due to this debconf bug, and need to go and get a bit more ... | 09:38 |

| TheMuso | seb128: I can address this post beta, its probably not needed there anyway. It opens a terminal because orca tries to set itself up if orca and accessibility is not set up. | 09:43 |
| lool | TheMuso: Ok; concerning the autostarting of pulse is it a bug or it's just me reading the description wrong? | 09:44 |
| TheMuso | lool: description of what? | 09:45 |
| lool | TheMuso: the pulse.conf machinery | 09:45 |
| seb128 | TheMuso: ok thanks | 09:45 |
| lool | # PulseAudio alsa plugin configuration file to set the pulseaudio plugin as | 09:45 |
| lool | # default output for applications using alsa when pulseaudio is running. | 09:45 |
| lool | TheMuso: But what this plugin really does is to start pulseaudio if it isn't running | 09:45 |
| TheMuso | lool: dtchen decided to re-enable auto spawning of pulse if it wasn't running | 09:45 |
| TheMuso | lool: no the plugin doesn't do that, see my comment re auto spawn | 09:45 |
| lool | TheMuso: Well however you turn it, it's hard to avoid using pulseaudio in this case | 09:46 |

| TheMuso | lool: I suggest you talk to dtchen about his reasoning. | 09:46 |
| lool | TheMuso: Ok | 09:46 |

| mdz | lool: imagewriter looks nice; how come it isn't in universe? | 10:04 |
| lool | mdz: I think at some point we wanted to merge usb-creator and imagewriter rather than having two tools | 10:05 |
| mdz | lool: I was looking for the analogue of https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation | 10:05 |
| mdz | lool: that sounds like a good idea, but if it won't happen for 9.04, I think having both in the archive would be useful | 10:05 |

| cbr | Enable modesetting on intel by default (DRM_I915_KMS) [N/y/?] (NEW) | 15:18 |
| apw | so my stuff will not be turning that on | 15:18 |
| apw | i think its on in karmic though | 15:18 |
| ni| | any reason trackpads are having problems in jaunty? | 15:20 |
| apw | yeah its on there. so we will start building them with it on when that gets into place | 15:20 |
| ni| | using ubuntu for work development | 15:20 |
| cbr | can i use the linux-source package to change an option and then still compile my own kernel based on that source and make a .deb out of it? | 15:21 |
| apw | in theory yes, not ever tried to do that for a mainline build .deb tho | 15:22 |
| cbr | what's a mainline build? | 15:22 |
| === maco_ is now known as maco | ||
| cbr | no ubuntu specific patches? | 15:23 |
| apw | yes | 15:23 |
| apw | literally a mainline tag checked out and built using the ubuntu configs | 15:23 |
| ni| | is this the wrong channel for jaunty discussion? | 15:23 |
| apw | then packaged into .deb | 15:23 |
| Pici | ni|: #ubuntu+1 | 15:23 |
| apw | ni|, #ubuntu+1 is probabally your first stop | 15:23 |
| ni| | thanks | 15:23 |
| cbr | apw: so what will i be missing? what do ubuntu specific patches do anyway? | 15:24 |
| maco | cbr: often hardware bug workarounds | 15:24 |
| maco | some cherry-picked patches from newer kernels to fix bugs | 15:24 |
| apw | what maco said | 15:25 |
| maco | so it might be 2.6.28 and include some bug fixes from 2.6.29 | 15:25 |
| cbr | so nothing important | 15:25 |
| maco | unless you've got that hardware ;) | 15:25 |
| apw | important to some people, not others | 15:25 |
| apw | for instance you won't have aufs, so you can't make a live cd out of the kernel | 15:25 |
| pitti | hey kirkland | 15:26 |
| kirkland | pitti: yo! | 15:26 |
| pitti | kirkland: I did an install on my USB stick today, and then used adduser --encrypt-home | 15:26 |
| pitti | kirkland: very cool stuff! | 15:26 |
| kirkland | pitti: :-) | 15:26 |
| kirkland | pitti: woohoo! | 15:27 |
| pitti | kirkland: I have two bugs, which I'll file on LP now, and one question | 15:27 |
| kirkland | pitti: k | 15:27 |
| pitti | kirkland: I noticed that there's some stuff in /var/lib/ecryptfs/username/ | 15:27 |
| pitti | kirkland: is it possible in any way to move them to /home/username/.ecryptfs/? | 15:27 |
| pitti | kirkland: to make /home self-sustained? | 15:27 |
| pitti | kirkland: so far I have had /home on a separate partition, and just threw away / for a reinstall | 15:27 |
| pitti | likewise, I could boot several OSes with sharing /home | 15:28 |
| pitti | having the metadata separated will break those use cases | 15:28 |
| kirkland | pitti: so that's a complex question | 15:28 |
| kirkland | pitti: basically, it comes down to this.... | 15:28 |
| pitti | kirkland: if that's not possible for some reasons, never mind | 15:28 |
| pitti | just wishful thinking :) | 15:28 |
| kirkland | pitti: your .ecryptfs directory needs to be readable when $HOME is mounted, and when it's not | 15:28 |
| pitti | and I wondered whether it makes sense to write a bug report for this | 15:28 |
| pitti | kirkland: right, understand | 15:28 |
| kirkland | pitti: ecryptfs has a "passthrough" option | 15:28 |
| pitti | kirkland: it would need to be '"transparently" passed through the encryption | 15:29 |
| kirkland | pitti: but i found it buggy, unreliable, and confusing to users | 15:29 |
| kirkland | pitti: right | 15:29 |
| pitti | much like for files I add to ~/.Private on my workstation | 15:29 |
| kirkland | pitti: and that's what passthrough is | 15:29 |
| pitti | I see | 15:29 |
| kirkland | pitti: but there's no policy governance support for passthrough | 15:29 |
| pitti | kirkland: so it's possible in principle, but a matter of bugs/ | 15:29 |
| pitti | ? | 15:29 |
| kirkland | pitti: so ecryptfs doesn't know what to do if you want to write a new file in a directory that was passedthrough | 15:30 |
| kirkland | pitti: is that new file encrypted, or not | 15:30 |
| kirkland | pitti: same with if you append to an existing file | 15:30 |
| kirkland | pitti: or delete a file, and create a new one | 15:30 |
| kirkland | pitti: anyway, that needs to be solved in the kernel, and it's not yet | 15:30 |
| pitti | kirkland: I guess it'd be too evil to special-case ".ecryptfs/"? | 15:30 |
| apw | kirkland, how about instead of that | 15:30 |
| kirkland | pitti: we actually considered that | 15:30 |
| apw | you loopback mount ~/.ecryptfs to /var/foo | 15:31 |
| kirkland | pitti: i think "evil" was sort of the conclusion.... | 15:31 |
| pitti | apw: bind mount, you mean? | 15:31 |
| apw | and then loopback mounted an empty dir over it | 15:31 |
| jordi | TheMuso: ping? | 15:31 |
| apw | andthen mounted home over the top | 15:31 |
| apw | pitti, yes | 15:31 |
| apw | so its in there, but not | 15:31 |
| apw | in fact | 15:31 |
| jordi | TheMuso, pitti: there's a discussion in the Debian ALSA team regarding what to do about asoundconf. | 15:31 |
| kirkland | apw: pitti: yeah, i think persia suggested that | 15:32 |
| apw | what if you bind mounted out of there, then moutned your encrypted mount | 15:32 |
| pitti | jordi: ugh, *blows the dust away*, that still exists.. | 15:32 |
| kirkland | apw: pitti: cjwatson challenged me to keep this to one-mount-per-user using ecryptfs | 15:32 |
| apw | and bind mountd the original again over the top | 15:32 |
| apw | oh that a shame | 15:32 |
| kirkland | pitti: the option I very much preferred was /home/.pitti mounted on /home/pitti | 15:32 |
| pitti | kirkland: one just needs to be aware that /var/lib/ecryptfs/ is part of /home now | 15:32 |
| jordi | TheMuso, pitti: we're getting bugs, I've noticed we don't have some fixes/additions that are present in Ubuntu packages and if we're going to keep it in Debian we really need someone from Ubuntu taking care of that part | 15:33 |
| kirkland | pitti: you could do this .... | 15:33 |
| kirkland | pitti: i agree | 15:33 |
| jordi | TheMuso, pitti: elimar removed it entirely from SVN, I'm holding the upload while I try to make a decision which maybe is less drastic... | 15:33 |
| pitti | jordi, TheMuso: do you actually think that we still need it? at least in GNOME and KDE we have much better ways to configure audio now.. | 15:33 |
| jordi | pitti: but your reaction was funny. :) | 15:33 |
| pitti | jordi: I'm all for that | 15:34 |
| kirkland | pitti: you can move /var/lib/ecryptfs/$USER wherever you want ... just put a symlink back to that location | 15:34 |
| kirkland | pitti: and actually, it's just $HOME/.ecryptfs that needs to be correct | 15:34 |
| jordi | pitti: honestly I'd be happy to drop the python dep and get rid of it entirely | 15:34 |
| pitti | jordi: it might have been a good hack 5 years ago, but right now I feel that it's hopelessly outdated by all the pulseaudio stuff | 15:34 |
| kirkland | pitti: break the symlinks which are in *both* your mounted and unmounted $HOME/.ecryptfs | 15:34 |
| kirkland | pitti: and put them wherever you want | 15:34 |
| kirkland | pitti: such as /home/.$USER/.ecryptfs | 15:34 |
| pitti | kirkland: ah, so I could put it into /home/.martin? | 15:34 |
| jordi | pitti: nod, Debian doesn't do pulseaudio by default though. Maybe this is a good time to push it | 15:35 |
| pitti | kirkland: nice | 15:35 |
| kirkland | pitti: aboslutely | 15:35 |
| kirkland | pitti: in fact .... | 15:35 |
| pitti | jordi: eventually Debian will have to as well | 15:35 |
| pitti | jordi: it's more and more becoming a required GNOME component | 15:35 |
| bryce | mdz, whoa it was the timestamping patch? How ironic. Well, we had planned to disable that around beta time all along. Cool, I'll post it today | 15:35 |
| jordi | pitti: how does pulse replace asoundconf | 15:35 |
| kirkland | pitti: mine is in /dev/sdb1, which is a pcmcia card | 15:35 |
| kirkland | pitti: which means that i *must* have that pcmcia card in my computer to login | 15:35 |
| pitti | jordi: for jaunty we jumped through some hoops to keep it halfway optional, but we can't sustain that | 15:35 |
| kirkland | pitti: voila! 2-factor authenttication ;-) | 15:35 |
| mdz | bryce: I'm not sure I agree that we should disable it; I find it extremely useful when debugging and don't see any harm in it | 15:36 |
| kirkland | pitti: i can step away from laptop, take my sd-card with me, and my encrypted data is not accessible ;-) | 15:36 |
| jordi | MDZ! | 15:36 |
| pitti | bryce: that relieved me a lot; nice to see it being tracked down | 15:36 |
| pitti | jordi: well, in the new world you don't configure alsa any more, you tell your app to which pulse sink to route its audio, etc. | 15:36 |
| mdz | jordi: JORDI! | 15:37 |
| pitti | jordi: from my POV it can be ripped out for good | 15:37 |
| pitti | jordi: TheMuso might have a broader opinion wrt. ubuntu studio, though | 15:37 |
| jordi | pitti: that's enough for me then. Thanks for the valuable input. May I mention you also are in favour of getting rid of it in the changelog's rationaler? | 15:37 |
| kirkland | pitti: just make sure you update both symlinks in mounted and unmounted $HOME/.ecryptfs | 15:37 |
| kirkland | pitti: or, just change /var/lib/ecryptfs/$USER to be a symlink too | 15:37 |
| pitti | jordi: absolutely | 15:37 |
| kirkland | pitti: actually, the latter is the easiest ;-) | 15:37 |
| pitti | kirkland: thanks a lot for the heads-up | 15:37 |
| jordi | pitti: *nod*. as ubuntu already carries a good deal of asoundconf delta, if studio needed it it can be added entirely to the buuntu diff | 15:38 |
| kirkland | pitti: sure... what else do you have? | 15:38 |
| jordi | pitti: thanks mate | 15:38 |
| pitti | kirkland: I don't have this setup on my workstation, just on the usb stick test install I just did | 15:38 |
| jordi | mdz: dude | 15:38 |
| jordi | mdz: I'm going to tell you something. | 15:38 |
| pitti | kirkland: now I have a complete workstation for carrying around on my keyring :) | 15:38 |
| mdz | jordi: you still don't have a title | 15:38 |
| pitti | 16 GB sticks rock | 15:38 |

| pitti | kirkland: the other are just bugs, I'll file them now | 15:38 |
| jordi | Since July, 2005, ALL my mobile phones have been configured to show "POP THE TRUNK" on the wallpaper screen | 15:39 |
| kirkland | pitti: cool, thanks | 15:39 |
| kirkland | pitti: any chance you can help me get something into update-notifier that says "you haven't written down your passphrase yet..." on first boot? | 15:39 |
| jordi | mdz: not yet. I'm sense I might be getting nearer | 15:39 |
| pitti | kirkland: sure; can you please file a bug report with your requirements, and subscribe me? I'll handle that from there then, to keep a record of the discussion | 15:41 |
| kirkland | pitti: will do, thanks | 15:41 |
| kirkland | pitti: file against ecryptfs-utils? | 15:41 |
| pitti | kirkland: against ecryptfs-utils, I think (since that should ship the notification) | 15:41 |
| kirkland | pitti: perfect, thanks. | 15:41 |
| pitti | it makes most sense there, AFAICS | 15:41 |
| bryce | mdz, I agree it can be useful for debugging, but I'm thinking that we do more debugging during development than after release so that is when it is maximally useful. Post-release, there is value in having it in that it makes the log less cluttery and more similar to what upstream is accustomed to. As well, as this bug has shown, even a debug patch can have bugs in it... | 15:48 |
| bryce | mdz, but we can discuss retaining it if you feel strongly that we should. | 15:49 |
| mdz | bryce: I think we should send it upstream | 15:49 |
| mdz | there is at least one further bug: | 15:49 |
| mdz | Markers: [ 0.022270] (--) probed, [ 0.022288] (**) from config file, [ 0.022301] (==) default setting, | 15:49 |
| mdz | [ 0.022314] (++) from command line, [ 0.022326] (!!) notice, [ 0.022338] (II) informational, | 15:49 |
| mdz | [ 0.022351] (WW) warning, [ 0.022363] (EE) error, [ 0.022375] (NI) not implemented, [ 0.022387] (??) unknown. | 15:49 |
| mdz | which should be easy to fix | 15:49 |
| calc | tkamppeter: ping, it seems you forgot to reassign 320391 to ghostscript? | 15:50 |
| calc | tkamppeter: or were you doing something else first before doing that? | 15:50 |
| bryce | mdz, my guess is that they'll reject it | 15:50 |
| mdz | bryce: why? | 15:50 |
| mdz | most other useful log files have timestamps | 15:50 |

| bryce | mdz, I think they won't like changing the format. Best case they might add a server flag (defaulted off) to enable it. | 15:54 |
| mdz | bryce: because change is bad? | 15:55 |
| mdz | surely X isn't quite that stodgy ;-) | 15:55 |
| bryce | mdz: they have their stodgy moments for sure ;-) | 15:55 |

| bluefoxicy | apt needs to work more like emerge does on gentoo | 16:01 |
| bluefoxicy | it installs everything and oops, config file update | 16:02 |
| bluefoxicy | sticks it in .config_0000.filename or something | 16:02 |
| bluefoxicy | then when everything's done you run etc-update or something and it does all the "diff/replace/keep" stuff | 16:02 |
| bluefoxicy | apt you set to update 200 packages, leave for 8 hours, and when you come home it has 4 hours of work to do because it stopped on the third package to ask you if you want to update a confidg file or not | 16:03 |

| calc | asac: we use system cairo for building OOo | 17:11 |
| calc | asac: the patch that sets this up is in ooo-build not in upstream OOo | 17:11 |
| calc | asac: i can find the patch that is involved so you can see it via svn.gnome.org | 17:12 |
| asac | calc: how far is our cairo out of sync with OOO in-source one? | 17:12 |

| kees | Nafallo: er, I had something to do with /var/log/gdm? | 17:23 |
| calc | seb128: so we went back to not using native dpi for jaunty? (or did i misunderstand what you said in the meeting) | 17:27 |
| TwoToneSpirit | So, one passion of mine is adding features to the desktop environment within compiz. For example, I'd really like to be able to have different wallpapers and icons sets on different viewports. Where might I begin to investigate this? | 17:28 |
| seb128 | calc: right we switched back to 96 dpi, too many applications to change to support px fonts values correctly | 17:28 |
| seb128 | that's for next cycle | 17:28 |
| kirkland | pitti: do you think bug #347970 is jaunty, or karmic material? | 17:31 |

| maco | TwoToneSpirit: different wallpaper is already implemented in compiz, isnt it? | 17:31 |
| TwoToneSpirit | maco: Sort of. The problem is that one needs to completely disable nautilus, and thus operate with no icons. Perhaps my quest needs to start with nautilus. | 17:33 |
| TwoToneSpirit | maco, et. al.: One way or another, I want to get into devel, and I just don't know where to begin. | 17:33 |
| seb128 | is there any reason ubuntu-devel-list gets merge requests emails? | 17:34 |
| cjwatson | seb128: we decided we wanted to move ubuntu-core-dev's contact address to a mailing list so that individual developers stopped being spammed by that sort of thing | 17:34 |
| cjwatson | seb128: we (TB) debated back and forth a bit, and ultimately ubuntu-devel seemed reasonable since it's useful for contributors to see the patch review process | 17:34 |
| cjwatson | seb128: if it gets too noisy we might split off a separate list or something | 17:35 |
| seb128 | isn't that a way to say to launchpad to not email about such things nowadays or to use a virtual launchpad where you can subscribe? | 17:35 |
| seb128 | virtual launchpad list | 17:35 |
| cjwatson | there's no way to tell it not to mail except by setting a contact address | 17:35 |
| sbeattie | pitti: is bug 347370 actually a bug, or just an expected change in behavior? | 17:35 |

| calc | seb128: ok, cool, i hoped we weren't reverting back permanently fixing applications is good :) | 17:35 |
| cjwatson | and we do want mail to be sent about merge requests, IMO, not for them to be blackholed! | 17:35 |
| cjwatson | we could move to lists.launchpad.net, yes. I'm not sure it's necessary yet; merge requests are pretty on-topic as ubuntu-devel goes | 17:36 |
| james_w | you could change the subscription settings for core-dev for each branch | 17:36 |
| calc | seb128: also you may already know this but for verifying things work 100% its good to test at ~ 150dpi, OOo didn't really start showing noticable problems for me until someone with a screen like that used it | 17:36 |
| james_w | but that is a lot of work, in addition to hiding the requests | 17:36 |
| calc | ~ 150 dpi can be seen on 15.4" 1920x1200 screen | 17:37 |
| calc | eg the ThinkPad W500 | 17:37 |
| * calc bbl, lunch | 17:37 | |
| seb128 | cjwatson: right, fair points, we do want to now about sponsoring requests too it doesn't mean that the mailing list is the right media to collect those | 17:38 |
| cjwatson | seb128: is the volume really prohibitive right now? | 17:38 |
| seb128 | cjwatson: I'm not clear what would be better but I perceive those emails on the list as noise right now | 17:39 |
| cjwatson | it's a lot less than sponsorship requests would be right now, I believe | 17:39 |
| cjwatson | and I do think it's a lot better than mailing individual developers | 17:39 |
| seb128 | cjwatson: no, we just got 7 in a day which made me start about them | 17:39 |
| cjwatson | so the only alternative IMO is another list | 17:39 |
| seb128 | it's not an issue right now but if we start using this launchpad feature often it will get noisy | 17:40 |
| seb128 | the other alternative I see is to filter those out in the list configuration | 17:40 |
| seb128 | and use an another way to go through the pending requests as we do for sponsoring | 17:40 |
| seb128 | anyway it's not really a real issue for now since we don't get a lot of those | 17:42 |
| pitti | kirkland: 347970> it's just a bug, thus it's appropriate for jaunty; thus I'd say it depends on workload, not freeze | 17:45 |

| Keybuk | there's a volcano near Portland, right? :p | 17:47 |
| * kees adds "can cause volcano erruptions" to list of powers people think I have | 17:48 | |
| kees | Keybuk: there is, but I'm closer to it than he is. :) | 17:48 |
| kees | I suspect the river he's on the other side of may stop lava flows. | 17:48 |
| elmo | lava >> river | 17:49 |
| elmo | just sayin | 17:49 |
| kees | Keybuk: so, if you tested LVM-on-RAID booting, I'll try your PPA crack | 17:49 |
| kees | elmo: probably true, but honestly if the lava makes it all the way to portland, it's gonna be a bad time for the northern hemisphere | 17:49 |
| Keybuk | of *course* I tested it :D | 17:50 |
| maco | calling software "crack"....is this common? dtchen does it all the time and i usually roll my eyes at him | 17:50 |
| kees | maco: I'd never heard it before joining the Ubuntu community, but it sure seems appropriate from time to time. | 17:50 |
| robbiew | cjwatson: do we need to be concerned with bug 347370 | 17:50 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 347370 in hal "REGRESSION: volume labels have underscores instead of spaces" [Low,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/347370 | 17:50 |
| kees | I suspect it's a Gnome-ism | 17:50 |
| Keybuk | robbiew: given that HAL doesn't use them for any reason I'm aware of, I don't think so | 17:51 |
| kees | Keybuk: btw, did you see the "RAID10 segvs mdadm" bug? | 17:51 |
| kirkland | maco: and we're all crack pushers, by way of "bzr push crack" | 17:51 |
| Keybuk | kees: no, iz not udev bug | 17:51 |
| punkrockguy | Hey, I'm not really sure if this is the right channel for this, but I'm a coder on the fceux project and our program, fceux, works fine on ubuntu 8.10, but does not work properly on ubuntu 9.04... Is there anyone that could help try to fix our application for 9.04? | 17:51 |
| kees | Keybuk: only raid10 kittens seem to have died from the incremental build changes | 17:51 |
| cjwatson | robbiew: it looked essentially cosmetic to me | 17:52 |
| Keybuk | what the hell is RAID *10* ? | 17:52 |
| robbiew | cjwatson: that's what I thought | 17:52 |
| kirkland | Keybuk: raid1 + raid0 | 17:52 |
| Keybuk | cjwatson: I think that's actually a udev change | 17:52 |
| punkrockguy | The strange thing is that it works perfect on 8.04 and it does not recognize input on 9.04 even with the exact same code.. It's based on SDL however the sdl libraries are the same in 8.10 and 9.04, I really have no idea what could make it work on one and not the other | 17:52 |
| kees | Keybuk: it's madness. basically, the precursor to sane LVM | 17:52 |
| kees | Keybuk: it's RAID1 but with RAID0 concat | 17:53 |
| Keybuk | cjwatson: well, libvolume-id change | 17:53 |
| Keybuk | Summary of changes from v129 to v130 | 17:53 |
| Keybuk | vol_id: always use the safe string versions for unencoded label and uuid | 17:53 |
| kees | punkrockguy: if it's an X-input issue, I would ask in #ubuntu-x | 17:53 |
| Keybuk | though that suggests its the vol_id too, not the library | 17:54 |
| kees | so, I now how to "hold" a package version. how do I *block* a package? i.e. it's in Recommends so it keeps trying to get installed, but I want to stop it from getting installed. | 17:55 |
| kees | s/now/know/ | 17:55 |
| kirkland | kees: Conflicts ? | 17:56 |
| Keybuk | cjwatson, robbiew: Hmm, I can't see anything here that's changed in HAL or udev | 17:56 |
| kirkland | kees: 7.4 of http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html ? | 17:57 |
| kees | kirkland: well, I mean at the apt level. I don't actually want to block it in packaging details. I just want to set a local preference on this machien to never install nspluginwrapper. | 17:57 |
| kirkland | kees: is your flash madly broken too? ie, won't install? | 17:57 |
| kirkland | kees: that's on my list of shit to fix after i swallow mdadm for the day | 17:57 |
| kees | kirkland: while I adore asac's diligence, flash is insanely unstable for me. I use adobe's native 64bit flash, and it is 100% stable. | 17:58 |
| kees | so, I have a held version of flashplugin-nonfree, and I want nspluginwrapper to never be installed. | 17:59 |
| kirkland | kees: is that flashplugin-nonfree? | 17:59 |
| asac | kees: this means that 64bit is more stable than 32bit ;) | 17:59 |
| asac | for me its similar unstable on 32bit as its on 64bit with wrapper | 17:59 |
| kees | asac: their native 64bit with a wrapper is stable? | 18:00 |
| asac | kees: sorry 32 bit with wrapper on amd64 ;) | 18:00 |
| kees | asac: right, hugely unstable: 32bit with wrapper on 64bit. for me, hugely stable: 64bit without wrapper. | 18:00 |

| Keybuk | robbiew: I'll reassign to pitti | 18:05 |
| robbiew | Keybuk: okay, thnx | 18:05 |
| asac | kees: we are fixing nspluginwrapper to not create that kind of pollution anymore | 18:05 |
| kees | asac: yeah, it's not in my way, it just keeps getting reinstalled. I do a dist-upgrade, it gets installed. I do an autoremove, it goes away. really odd, but I realize it's due to my crackful fork. :) | 18:05 |
| asac | kees: you mean nspluginwrapper comes back? | 18:05 |
| asac | the package it self? | 18:05 |

| * asac wouldnt feel safe nor comfortable without water | 18:06 | |
| kirkland | pitti: nope, you did it right | 18:06 |
| kees | asac: right, nspluginwrapper keeps getting reinstalled. not really sure why. | 18:06 |
| pitti | Keybuk: the "_" in device labels issue you mean? | 18:06 |
| kirkland | pitti: i didn't read closely enough :-) | 18:06 |
| pitti | Keybuk: ah, seems so | 18:07 |
| asac | kees: i would think its really that archive version gets bumped and that pulls in nspluginwrapper. otherwise its probably a bug in apt :/ | 18:07 |
| kees | yeah | 18:07 |
| kees | mostly I was just curious if there was an apt way to block a package. | 18:08 |
| asac | kees: you can install an empty package with version 9999 ;) | 18:08 |

| pitti | kirkland: well, --remove-all-files should imply --remove-home, and --remove-home actually purges all the encrypted files, right? so is there anything left why the /var/lib files should be kept? | 18:50 |
| pitti | cjwatson: ah, FYI, I think I found out why an installation of today's image on USB caused uname to be 2.6.28-9 -- if I do usb-creator again after completely purging the stick, it doesn't boot at all | 18:50 |
| pitti | thus I suppose on this morning's attempt there really was the old kernel still | 18:51 |
| pitti | evand: have you tried/heard about successful usb-creator installations recently? | 18:51 |

| kirkland | pitti: does it take a logout? | 19:22 |

| slytherin | hmm | 19:42 |
| seb128 | so I'm not sure what fixed it there but I can't debug if I don't get the bug | 19:42 |

| slytherin | right. | 19:43 |

| slangasek | TheMuso: it's the fact that lmms recommends: wine but wine isn't on the ISO; Recommends are expected to be pulled in by default | 21:22 |
| TheMuso | slangasek: ah! | 21:24 |
| slangasek | at least, that's the problem I see from here | 21:24 |
| TheMuso | I'll check that locally | 21:25 |
| BlackLukes | is there anyone who is an active developer of ubiquity (or at least knows it quite well)? | 21:27 |
| sladen | BlackLukes: yes, but they probably finished work a few hours ago. Perhaps if you asked what your question/query was you might get somebody else who can help | 21:32 |
| BlackLukes | my question is about the code used for the partition bar | 21:33 |
| BlackLukes | anyone who would help me please email at luca.91 at hotmail.it, I'm leaving | 21:35 |
| slangasek | that's still a metaquestion, not a question. :) | 21:35 |
| BlackLukes | maybe I can explain tomorrow, sorry | 21:35 |

| bredoto | hia | 21:45 |
| bredoto | Need help. How can i make proper configure file for my sources? | 21:46 |
| bredoto | hm anyone | 21:50 |
| Snova | What is this for? A personal project, something you're packaging, something else? | 21:50 |
| Snova | Also, this isn't really the proper channel, join #ubuntu-programming | 21:50 |
| bredoto | personal project. And what is the structure of configure file? | 21:51 |
| Snova | They're shell scripts. | 21:51 |
| sladen | it's a shell script, generated by autotools | 21:52 |
| Snova | Worse yet, they're auto-generated shell scripts, produced from macros (M4, to be precise). | 21:52 |
| sladen | Snova: TBH, you probably don't need one | 21:52 |
| sladen | Snova: just make a normal Makefile by hand | 21:52 |
| Snova | A configure script? Not while I can help it. :) Quick! While you still can! Learn CMake. ;) | 21:53 |
| bredoto | does anybody know some tutorials or other source | 21:54 |
| Snova | This might be good (for Autotools): http://sources.redhat.com/autobook/ | 21:55 |
| Snova | Maybe. Just the first thing I found. | 21:55 |
| bredoto | thnks | 21:57 |
| bredoto | =| | 21:57 |
| bredoto | Lets image that i have source file of my progrm: myp.c What is the next step for preparing configure file? Just create configure file with "gcc -c myp.c and cp a.out /usr/bin/myp "commands? | 22:01 |
| Snova | No, configure doesn't build anything. | 22:02 |
| Snova | You need a configure.ac file, which doesn't have to be long, just initialize Autotools and test for a compiler, then generate a Makefile. (Not sure *exactly* how) | 22:02 |
| Snova | Then you need a Makefile.am that specifies what to compile, and to what. | 22:04 |
| Snova | Then there are various programs that generate more files from those two (there might even be another file or so you have to write, don't think so though). | 22:04 |
| bredoto | Snova, thank this is my first step =) iam just a beginner (dummy=) | 22:05 |
| Snova | Dang. Sorry about that (again). | 22:05 |
| slangasek | kees: full nvclock MIR available now, bug #347813 | 22:06 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 347813 in nvclock "Main inclusion request for nvclock" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/347813 | 22:06 |
| Snova | Honestly, I find Autotools to be a gigantic mess. You'd probably be a lot better suited learning something like CMake (I'm partial to SCons, but it might not be quite as good for you). | 22:06 |
| slangasek | kees: (if you want it :) | 22:06 |
| Snova | bredoto: http://www.cmake.org/ | 22:07 |
| slangasek | Snova, bredoto: could you please take that discussion elsewhere? As you noted, it's not really on-topic for #ubuntu-devel | 22:07 |
| Snova | bredoto: Only *one* file you have to write, and it's a *lot* simpler. | 22:07 |
| Snova | bredoto: Yes, please join #ubuntu-programming | 22:07 |
| cjwatson | Snova: cmake: thorough nightmare the last time I had to modify anything written using it (admittedly that was Qt) | 22:11 |
| kees | slangasek: I'll likely get to it tomorrow unless you need it rushed? | 22:13 |
| slangasek | no rush | 22:13 |
| slangasek | it's not going in pre-beta, smartdimmer is on the CDs | 22:13 |
| ed___ | hi | 22:17 |
| TheMuso | slangasek: ok weird. Dispite what the report says, lmms and ubuntustudio-audio install fine with a fresh amd64 disk as of the latest daily. The wine package is kept from the disks by blacklisting, but things install as expected on the disk. | 22:23 |
| slangasek | TheMuso: eh, why are you using blacklists for this? that's a Very Large Hammer | 22:24 |
| slangasek | TheMuso: also, we don't want installing from the archive and installing from ISO to give a different experience... | 22:24 |
| TheMuso | slangasek: Right, I guess the best approach then is to demote wine to suggests for lmms and fix the seeds | 22:25 |
| slangasek | TheMuso: that would be my recommendation | 22:25 |
| TheMuso | ok I'll take care of that now. | 22:25 |
| TheMuso | slangasek: ok lmms uploaded, pushing the change to the seeds now as well. | 22:32 |
| slangasek | thanks | 22:32 |
| cjwatson | Riddell: I'll look at your oem-config autologin bug tomorrow - fetching the CD now | 22:37 |
| Riddell | cjwatson: thanks | 22:38 |

| mdz_ | bryce: just in case I wasn't clear...I don't want to block fixing 328035 on getting the patch fixed up; please feel free to rip it out and stop the pain while we discuss what to do after that | 23:01 |
| kees | can we deprecate python's "commands" module, please? | 23:02 |
| slangasek | mdz_: the fixed xorg-server is already in the beta freeze queue; I'm taking it as an opportunistic fix for beta if something else goes wrong in testing | 23:03 |
| mdz_ | slangasek: great, thanks | 23:03 |
| mdz_ | I didn't see the bug updated and so didn't realize | 23:04 |
| slangasek | I'm still kicking myself for not having checked debian/patches when I looked at that logging code | 23:04 |
| slangasek | sticks out like a sore thumb, *if* you're looking at the right code :) | 23:04 |
| mdz_ | slangasek: yeah, likewise | 23:07 |

| TheMuso | slangasek: sorry made a typo with the lmms control changes, did a copy and paste, and thought I copied a bracket, but didn't. Uploading a fix now. | 23:41 |

| mthaddon | wgrant: can you take a look at bug 335492 - you seemed to be the last to touch the package and just wanted to run my changes by you as I'm kind of new to this | 23:46 |
| ubottu | Bug 335492 on http://launchpad.net/bugs/335492 is private | 23:46 |

| wgrant | mthaddon: I might be able to. | 23:49 |
| wgrant | Let's see. | 23:49 |
| wgrant | I can. | 23:49 |
| mthaddon | cool | 23:49 |
| wgrant | Because I'm in ~ubuntu-dev. | 23:49 |
| mthaddon | :) | 23:49 |
| wgrant | mthaddon: That debdiff looks fine. | 23:50 |
| mthaddon | wgrant: so what's the process for getting the package updated? | 23:50 |
| wgrant | mthaddon: Subscribe ubuntu-universe-sponsors to the bug. | 23:50 |
