fmarierI've got a question about LP#350732: I subscribed universe-sponsors to it in the hope that it will be picked up for Jaunty, however someone else marked it as "confirmed".  Does this mean that it will not be seen by the motu?04:50
fmarierbug 35073204:59
fmarieris this supposed to trigger a bot response?04:59
savvasfmarier: yes, either that or bug #350732 (I also think LP: #350732 triggers it)05:01
savvasanyway, you've followed the correct process :)05:01
fmarierso "confirmed" is fine? I remember someone telling me that it was better for some reason to leave it as New until it was acked by a sponsor...05:02
savvasI'm really not sure, but if I remember correctly the status shouldn't be changed after the sponsors are subscribed to it05:03
fmarierok, well as long as the bug is considered for Jaunty then I'm happy... the version of asterisk that's currently in there is pretty useless for anybody wanting to use encryption :(05:04
LucidFoxIf a Debian package has the same upstream version but adds a new binary package, I suppose it's better not to merge it after FF?05:12

macoCan anyone force a rebuild on seahorse-plugins 2.26.0-0ubuntu2 for hppa?  There were broken dependencies at the time19:09
dtchenhobbsee: / Riddell:  ^giveback, please19:11
dtchend'oh19:11
ScottKDid it build or FTBFS?19:12
ScottKGot it19:12
ScottKdtchen and maco: done.19:13
ScottKdtchen: Anyone with upload rights for the package can do that now.19:13
macoScottK: thanks19:13
macoScottK: it failed to build only on that arch because epiphany was broken at the time19:13
ScottKmaco: That's not a rare thing.19:14
macoScottK: dtchen said hppa gets behind because it's a port19:14
ScottKhppa gets behind particularly because the hppa buildd's are VERY slow and that particular port is the least well maintained.19:15
ScottKYou'll see generally that powerpc (for example) keeps up reasonably well.19:15
macodtchen: are built-in mics still busted all over the place?19:16
dtchenyes19:17
dtchenwell, if one is extremely unlucky19:17
macoso if someone reports that everything but built-in mic works with a certain quirk on Jaunty, does that still mean "wrong quirk" or is it "right quirk, just busted"?19:18
maco(mine works right now, but I can't figure out how to make Wengo or Ekiga use PulseAudio's capture device)19:19
dtchenerr19:20
dtchen"just busted" implies wrong qurik19:20
dtchenquirk*19:20
dtchenthose two things are non-orthogonal19:21
dtchenmeaning jack sensing and quirks are tied19:21
macoi thought there were many cases happening in jaunty only where internal mics regressed19:21
dtchenthere are, and they're due to quirk regressions19:21
dtchennot *just* jack sensing regressions19:22
macoso do they mean it's the wrong quirk to use or that its the right quirk to use bt that the quirk is slightly broken and will be fixed?19:22
blueyedCan you debug apport hooks of a package, without actually sending a bug? (e.g. by using staging.launchpad.net) I could fake an entry for launchpad.net to the staging IP in /etc/hosts maybe.. - anything better?19:22
dtchenmaco: they're the same in this case19:23
macodtchen: so assuming those quirk regressions were caused by trying to fix something else, would the correct solution be to have 2 similar quirks (1 old behaviour, 1 new behaviour) and divide up the quirks table entries between them?19:25
maco(based on what worked only in intrepid v. only in jaunty)19:26
dtchenmaco: err, meaning the foo_cfg_tbl[] or a wiki table?19:26
macofoo_cfg_tbl[]19:26
dtchendivision would be bad19:27
dtchenstep one is to fix the jack sense regression19:27
dtchenstep two is to filter the quirk regressions19:27
macowhat does jack sensing have to do with the internal mic? shouldnt that only break the plugin type?19:28
jdongdirecthex: what are your feelings on MD 2.0 final?19:29
dtchenmaco: jack sensing is everywhere now19:29
jdongdtchen: do you have any magical insight on jaunty + skype's insane CPU usage?19:29
jdongskype almost certainly shares the blame but it's regressed from Intrepid19:30
dtchengeez, when it rains it pours19:30
jdongdtchen: haha I'm sorry :)19:30
directhexjdong, i have a standing feature freeze. it's a dead cert for jaunty.19:30
dtchenno, i'm just being bombarded on all sides by alsa questions from eric sandeen, you guys, etc., etc.19:30
jdongdtchen: I figured ;-) but that's what happens when you spring to life.19:31
dtchenyeah, well, i'm going back to work19:31
jdongdirecthex: awesomeness; yeah I've been screwing around with the new release and it's quite nice.19:31
dtchenlunch spent doing bug stuff isn't really lunch19:31
jdongno, it isn't :)19:31
jdongI'll ambush you at a later time19:31

directhexjdong, it's waiting on 3 things: meebey getting home from work, some gentle bumping of changelogs, and a dinstall run in debian which i can sync from19:33
jdongdirecthex: ok, awesome; didn't mean to prod you, was just curious19:34
directhex[18:51] <directhex> meebey, can i schedule some of your time for MD2.0 before the 9th? by all means, focus on smuxi for now, but that's FinalFreeze, and after that the paperwork gets messy19:37
