| bdmurray | jgoguen: doesn't everything lose data when you hd is full? | 00:04 |
|---|---|---|
| bdmurray | jgoguen: okay, I read the report ;-) | 00:04 |
| jgoguen | bdmurray: not everything gets data corruption when the HDD is full though, and the interactive things should allow you to save elsewhere | 00:05 |
| jgoguen | bdmurray: admittedly, thunderbird isn't interactive that way :) and I don't know what else it could do for POP3... | 00:05 |
| bdmurray | it'd be good to test it in Jaunty | 00:06 |
| jgoguen | bdmurray: ok...do you think High is right then? When I get a chance, I'll create a Thunderbird profile on a nearly-full partition and see if I can reproduce | 00:07 |
| bdmurray | jgoguen: yes, at least high | 00:07 |
| jgoguen | Critical if it still exists? | 00:08 |
| bdmurray | jgoguen: perhaps | 00:08 |
| jgoguen | bdmurray: ok...I'm going to an exam in a bit, I'll come ask about it once I get a chance to test and see just what happens | 00:09 |
| bdmurray | jgoguen: oh, if its not fixed upstream its unlikely to be fixed in Jaunty ;-) | 00:11 |
| * jgoguen looks again | 00:11 | |
| jgoguen | heh :) | 00:11 |
| jgoguen | wonder if it's been fixed in Thunderbird 3 since Jan 11...I've seen at least one other bug, either there or in GNOME, that's fixed but not marked fixed | 00:13 |
| bdmurray | Yeah, it would be good to know for sure | 00:14 |
| jgoguen | is there a PPA for Thunderbird 3 builds? it's failing for me right now, apparently GCC doesn't follow the C++ standard for temporary object destruction... | 00:14 |
| jgoguen | as of gcc-4.3 | 00:14 |
| bdmurray | The mozillateam does not have one | 00:16 |
| jgoguen | ok...I have to run now, either late tonight when I get home or sometime tomorrow I'll install gcc 4.2 and compile Thunderbird 3 and test | 00:17 |

| efraser | I've got a bug when using dual head DVI on a dell docking station with a Dell Lattitude E4300, but I'm not sure what to file the bug against. | 09:44 |
| efraser | Or to search against. | 09:44 |
| efraser | Basically xrandr is messing up when it configures the monitors when you login. | 09:46 |
| efraser | nm, I've found the guides on reporting bugs. | 09:56 |
| YoBoY | efraser: hi, you can beggin your jorney by reading this page https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Debugging | 09:56 |
| efraser | cheers, that's what I'm doing :) | 09:56 |
| james_w | it's bug day today people! https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBugDay/20090409 | 10:07 |
| james_w | feel free to ask about anything you are unsure about how to deal with | 10:07 |
| james_w | the idea today is to do two things, remove the "patch" flag from attachments that aren't patches so the flag becomes more useful | 10:08 |
| james_w | and to move the patches that are there closer to being integrated in to the package, so that we can fix bugs or add features. | 10:09 |

| miki4242 | hi all, should a debdiff always include a new changelog entry describing the fix? | 10:36 |

| TheHobbit | hi | 10:41 |
| TheHobbit | I'm working on bug 321688. The bug could be better solved by upgrading the package to the new upstream release, should I? | 10:42 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 321688 in liblocale-maketext-lexicon-perl "Broken argument parsing in Lexicon::import()." [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/321688 | 10:42 |
| TheHobbit | hmmm I need some clarification on policy.... The bug I'm hugging now is solved upstream in a new release. Moreover, jaunty already has the new release solving the bug, thus the problem only stays for intrepid... | 11:24 |
| TheHobbit | what is the right thing to do? bring the new release in intrepid or patch the old one? | 11:25 |
| james_w | miki4242: a debdiff should generally, yes | 11:25 |
| miki4242 | thanks | 11:26 |
| james_w | miki4242: it's not usually crucial, but having it makes proper attribution easier | 11:26 |
| miki4242 | ok. | 11:28 |
| james_w | TheHobbit: hi, I don't see the reference in the upstream changelog, which version fixes it? | 11:29 |
| miki4242 | after lunch i'll work on espeak/portaudio bugs which are quite a problem for accessible ubuntu. any help greatly appreciated. | 11:30 |
| TheHobbit | james_w: I did not download all the releases, but 0.77 has it cleaned... The fact that is not in the changelog does not surprise me... | 11:31 |
| james_w | why's that? | 11:31 |
| TheHobbit | is such a blunder, I wouldn't like to have it remembered each time someone opens the changelog:D | 11:31 |
| james_w | ok, I see it now | 11:32 |
| james_w | so, as this is fixed in Jaunty it should be marked "Fix Released" | 11:33 |
| TheHobbit | ok, but what for intrepid? | 11:33 |
| james_w | but we know this affects Intrepid, so we should decide whether it is appropriate to fix there | 11:33 |
| james_w | we need to weigh up the impact of the problem, against the potential for regression | 11:34 |
| TheHobbit | ok, I just found it | 11:34 |
| TheHobbit | is solved in release 0.67 of the upstream package | 11:34 |
| james_w | cool, thanks | 11:34 |
| TheHobbit | that is just the release after the one that is in intrepid | 11:35 |
| TheHobbit | I do not think that upgrading to 0.67 should pose any regression problems... just a sec | 11:35 |
| james_w | there seems to be little potential for regression, except that something may be relying on the fact that it only accepts odd numbers of arguments | 11:35 |
| james_w | we can check what packages depend on that one using "apt-cache rdepends" | 11:36 |
| james_w | so there are a few | 11:36 |
| TheHobbit | yes, so there are... I'm looking for changes in the 0.67 wrt 0.66 | 11:41 |
| TheHobbit | hu? | 11:43 |
| TheHobbit | in the 0.66 version on cpan there is no bug!!!! | 11:44 |
| TheHobbit | either the developper put on cpan two 0.66 versions, or the matainer had a problem somewhere | 11:45 |
| james_w | I can't see it in the Intrepid version either | 11:48 |
| TheHobbit | mee too, I'm sorry, I was wrong | 11:49 |
| TheHobbit | :( | 11:49 |
| james_w | it was fixed in ubuntu with the upload of 0.62-1 | 11:49 |
| TheHobbit | yes, i saw | 11:50 |
| TheHobbit | i'm correctin my blunder | 11:50 |
| james_w | dapper, gutsy and hardy are then affected, but nothing after | 11:50 |
| TheHobbit | thus? should be 'confirmed'? | 11:51 |
| james_w | nope, still "Fix Released" | 11:51 |
| james_w | the status tracks the development release | 11:51 |
| james_w | we can add a bug task for earlier releases if we want to fix it there | 11:52 |
| TheHobbit | hmmm | 11:52 |
| TheHobbit | if someone ask for it... | 11:53 |
| TheHobbit | I'm closing it on the hugday page too | 11:56 |
| TheHobbit | well, a closed bug before lunch, and after I'll tag another;) | 11:58 |
| TheHobbit | at least being unemployed will produce something | 11:58 |

| TheHobbit | hi | 13:55 |
| TheHobbit | I'm looking into bug 176862, proble is: the patch attached is a diff against the whole tree, almost a debdiff, for a old release of the package | 14:07 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 176862 in gworldclock "unsorted country list" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/176862 | 14:07 |
| TheHobbit | moreover the package has no patches for now, so I should choose a patch handler (I'm only familiar with dpatch,,,,) | 14:08 |
| james_w | TheHobbit: that patch appears to be a debdiff to me | 14:10 |
| TheHobbit | yes, but against an old release | 14:10 |
| james_w | when there is no patch system already then we typically do not add one for packages which originate from Debian | 14:10 |
| james_w | ah | 14:10 |
| TheHobbit | moreover, I thought that patches should be in the debian/patches, not idden in the diff.gz | 14:11 |
| TheHobbit | +h | 14:11 |
| james_w | that's what I was saying | 14:12 |
| TheHobbit | I have some doubt about the patch, by the way.... | 14:12 |
| james_w | if there is no patch system already then we don't generally add one, as that can cause issues with merging from Debian | 14:12 |
| TheHobbit | it solves the proiblem yes | 14:12 |
| james_w | so in this case it would be ok | 14:12 |
| TheHobbit | but only for english speaking people:D | 14:12 |
| james_w | also, it's only a tiny bit old, so it should be easy to update it to apply to the new version | 14:13 |
| james_w | heh :-) | 14:13 |
| TheHobbit | yes it is easy, just modify the files :) | 14:13 |
| TheHobbit | debian has a related bug, #167339 | 14:14 |
| TheHobbit | which asks for displaying the country codes too | 14:14 |
| TheHobbit | anyhow, I can adapt the patch and upload a debdiff against current release | 14:15 |
| TheHobbit | should I? | 14:15 |
| james_w | that would be great | 14:15 |
| james_w | also, if you could forward it to Debian it would be even better | 14:15 |
| james_w | it appears the author is also the Debian maintainer, so it's two birds with one stone doing that | 14:15 |
| TheHobbit | what? the debdiff or the bug report? or both? | 14:15 |
| james_w | both please | 14:16 |
| TheHobbit | hmmm I'll be back for direction about how to do it... | 14:16 |
| james_w | plus, adding the note about the sponsors to the Ubuntu bug so that the reporter might know about that next time would be triple good | 14:16 |
| TheHobbit | who's the sponsor? | 14:16 |
| hggdh | what should be done on patches that change Makefile.am? | 14:17 |
| james_w | TheHobbit: the sponsors team | 14:17 |
| james_w | ah, I thought that was on the Bugs/Patches page | 14:18 |
| james_w | hggdh: they are tricky. It sometimes depends on the package | 14:18 |
| james_w | hggdh: generally though a sponsor should be able to do the necessary things with it, as it is often easier for them to do it themselves than review a patch that includes autotools changes. | 14:19 |
| TheHobbit | you mean subscribing the ubuntu-(main|universe)-sponsors to the bug james_w ? | 14:19 |
| hggdh | james_w, yes... I would really not need to run autotools in the build | 14:19 |
| james_w | hggdh: mentioning that "Makefile.am" is changed along with the patch would be good though | 14:19 |
| james_w | hggdh: plus, check debian/rules, some packages already run it there | 14:19 |
| hggdh | james_w, thanks | 14:20 |
| james_w | TheHobbit: yeah, but also add a comment explaining that that is what you are doing, and that if they attach a patch they should do the same thing | 14:20 |
| TheHobbit | I'll do it... | 14:20 |
| james_w | thank you | 14:20 |
| TheHobbit | is universe by the way in this case | 14:21 |
| TheHobbit | I'll be back | 14:21 |

| bddebian | Boo | 15:11 |
| BUGabundo | foo | 15:12 |
| TheHobbit | ok, now I have the right debdiff... I'm going to do the amministrative work, only I would like to know how to notify debian (And upstream being the same...) | 15:14 |
| TheHobbit | by the way.... | 15:22 |
| TheHobbit | having posted a debdiff, should I set the status to fix-released or something? Or should it stay 'confirmed'? | 15:22 |
| james_w | confirmed is fine | 15:23 |
| james_w | having the sponsors subscribed is the important bit | 15:23 |
| TheHobbit | that's done | 15:23 |
| james_w | and not closing the bug, so "Fix Released" would actually be bad | 15:23 |
| james_w | cool :-) | 15:23 |
| TheHobbit | now about notifying upstream...? | 15:24 |
| james_w | and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Debian/Bugs should help with forwarding to Debian | 15:24 |
| TheHobbit | reading it.... | 15:26 |
| TheHobbit | just a question.... when it is said that the debdiff generated by submittodebian can be edited, is to remove specific ubuntu things? Like the update-mainatiner thing? | 15:42 |
| james_w | exactly | 15:51 |
| bdmurray | james_w: How's it going? | 15:57 |
| james_w | hey bdmurray | 15:58 |
| james_w | pretty good, how are you? | 15:58 |
| bdmurray | good, I was looking at bug 176862 which TheHobbit was working and part of the changelog has been modified is that alright? | 15:58 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 176862 in gworldclock "unsorted country list" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/176862 | 15:59 |
| TheHobbit | bdmurray: modified by me you mean? | 15:59 |
| bdmurray | TheHobbit: yeah the removed obsolete variables from changelog bit | 16:00 |
| TheHobbit | hu.... | 16:00 |
| TheHobbit | that was the Local variable part | 16:00 |
| TheHobbit | I could add them again... | 16:00 |
| TheHobbit | :) | 16:01 |
| bdmurray | TheHobbit: right, I'm not sure modifying the changelog is the right thing to do and wanted to check w/ someone else | 16:01 |
| bdmurray | I mean its not worth carrying a diff from Debian for | 16:01 |
| TheHobbit | I was asking myself the same thing... | 16:02 |
| TheHobbit | bdmurray: I'll wait to notify upstream then.... | 16:03 |
| TheHobbit | these variables are mode setting for some text editor or other I think | 16:04 |
| bdmurray | james_w: ? | 16:07 |
| james_w | yeah, harmless, but discouraged | 16:07 |
| james_w | if there's no effect on the package then it's not worth diverging from Debian | 16:07 |
| TheHobbit | thus I'm back to generate a debdiff then.. | 16:07 |
| TheHobbit | ok, learning is made through doing the wrong thing and starting over | 16:08 |
| TheHobbit | as my grandmother was fond to say | 16:08 |
| james_w | indeed :-) | 16:08 |
| exosyst | Can anyone verify some odd behaviour after the last intrepid update? | 16:09 |
| bdmurray | james_w: once he's got that done what do we need to do to get it in? | 16:09 |
| james_w | at the moment it would need motu-release approval | 16:10 |
| thekorn | woohoo, happy hugday everybody ;) | 16:31 |
| TheHobbit | ok, now the debdiff is minimal........ | 16:31 |
| TheHobbit | should I notify upstream? | 16:31 |
| TheHobbit | james_w: ? | 16:34 |
| TheHobbit | must go... | 16:38 |
| bdmurray | TheHobbit: Thanks for helping out! | 16:38 |
| TheHobbit | bdmurray: no problem:) | 16:39 |
| TheHobbit | 'till next week I've time | 16:39 |
| bdmurray | james_w: I've a question about the patch tagging guidelines | 17:00 |
| james_w | shoot | 17:00 |
| bdmurray | So in a dpatch patch it says: | 17:01 |
| bdmurray | ## All lines beginning with `## DP:' are a description of the patch. | 17:01 |
| bdmurray | So is ## DP: Ubuntu: url appropriate? | 17:01 |
| james_w | I think so, yes | 17:03 |
| bdmurray | james_w: okay, I wasn't sure if it was redundant. Is there somebody else to checkw with I'd like to update the wiki page too | 17:09 |
| james_w | bdmurray: I'm not sure that there is | 17:14 |
| james_w | I think the DP: lines are there to mark the description so that tools could parse them out | 17:14 |
| james_w | I don't see why the links shouldn't be part of the description, their valuable information | 17:15 |
| bdmurray | My question was whether or not is should be ## DP: Ubuntu: url vs ## Ubuntu: url | 17:15 |
| james_w | yeah | 17:21 |

| imachine | I think it's upstream, since it fails to build with nvidia-installer with .run file from NVIDIA.com | 22:16 |
| imachine | I can provide that debug as well | 22:16 |
| imachine | but not now since that pc is off and people sleep in the same room it's in | 22:16 |
| IntuitiveNipple | imachine: There are plenty of reports about that issue from a Google search. It seems the problem is the kernel changed the definition of some functions and Nvidia didn't update some driver packages | 22:16 |
| imachine | yes, very likely | 22:17 |
| imachine | like I said, it's upstream 99$ | 22:17 |
| imachine | 99% | 22:17 |
| imachine | tho, it's a bug nonetheless and should be reported, so that it at least gets marked as upstream/won't fix | 22:17 |
| imachine | :-) | 22:17 |
| imachine | I'll browse laucnhpad later for it; the bigger problem is that nvidia 96 which should work is broken. | 22:17 |
| imachine | it displays RGB not as RGB but as GBR | 22:18 |
| imachine | ;p | 22:18 |
| IntuitiveNipple | This may help: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=120971 | 22:20 |
| IntuitiveNipple | what video chip-set is that? | 22:20 |
| imachine | gf3 ti | 22:21 |
| IntuitiveNipple | 96.x.x displays as GBR? | 22:22 |
| imachine | yes | 22:23 |
| imachine | on DVI | 22:23 |
| imachine | works fine on VGA | 22:23 |
| imachine | it's a known issue | 22:24 |
| imachine | http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=106496 | 22:24 |
| imachine | that's what I have | 22:25 |
| imachine | seems it's not just GF3 | 22:25 |
| imachine | I'd gladly use 71x | 22:25 |
| imachine | but they fail to build :) | 22:25 |
| IntuitiveNipple | What's connected to the DVI? | 22:25 |
| imachine | a monitor | 22:31 |
| imachine | 20" dell | 22:31 |
| imachine | works fine on window$ | 22:32 |
| imachine | works fine with nv on linux | 22:32 |
| IntuitiveNipple | I was wondering if the nvidia xorg.conf EDID over-rides might help so you can set the parameters manually | 22:32 |
| imachine | what might help me is turning off VGA | 22:33 |
| IntuitiveNipple | ftp://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/96.43.11/README/appendix-d.html | 22:34 |
| imachine | because I think it's the fact that the card falsly keeps both outputs on, and therefore corruption comes up | 22:34 |
| IntuitiveNipple | There's an IgnoreDisplayDevices option that may help | 22:34 |
| IntuitiveNipple | also possibly ExactModeTimingsDVI if you over-ride EDID | 22:35 |
| imachine | its not EDID, I think | 22:35 |
| imachine | there's no errors in xorg.0.log | 22:35 |
| imachine | it used to work on older drivers | 22:35 |
| imachine | and if I killed and restarted X a few times, it worked fine | 22:36 |
| imachine | so I'm guessing it's some nasty nvidia issue that makes it pick up both outputs at once. | 22:36 |
| IntuitiveNipple | From what I've read though, the driver is not using the provided EDID info correctly, so over-riding it could help | 22:36 |
| imachine | and it should not. | 22:36 |
| imachine | I'll check it out later tomorrow, thanks | 22:36 |
| imachine | it's tomorrow in 20 minutes over here anyway | 22:36 |
| imachine | and I guess I should be off | 22:36 |
| imachine | so lates! and thanks for the hints. | 22:36 |
| imachine | I'll report back later | 22:37 |
| IntuitiveNipple | the other one is ModeValidation | 22:37 |
