pittithanks; not the end of the world07:33
loolHi all08:35
loolseb128: arm gnome-keyring workaround: well it will probably break if you remove it, but then we had to chase it anyway so feel free to remove it and we shall research this again this cycle; thanks08:35
seb128hello there08:50
seb128lool: ok thanks08:50
seb128robert_ancell: there?08:50
robert_ancellseb128: hey08:50
robert_ancellseb128: building totem for the millionth time...08:50
seb128robert_ancell: hello! had a good trip back to your part of the world?08:50
robert_ancellseb128: long and tedious as normal :)08:50
seb128hehe08:51
robert_ancellI hear you got the ubuflu.  I seem to have missed that one08:52
seb128it's not really the flu, or at least not the chilian one with fever and everything08:52
seb128just running nose, etc ... standard cold08:52
robert_ancellyes, the meeting got steadily noisier with coughing as UDS went on08:53
robert_ancellmeetings08:53
crevettehello08:54
seb128blame ie on the climate control being set on too cold08:54
chrisccoulsonhey seb128 - did you have a good couple of weeks?08:54
seb128hey chrisccoulson, excellent out of the uds-cold, thanks08:55
seb128thanks for the gnome-applets update ;-)08:56
chrisccoulsonyou're welcome. apart from that, i didn't really do that much while you were at UDS ;)08:56
seb128there is no hurry to do anything right now08:56
chrisccoulsoncool. i was just about to ask if you had lots of work for me to do ;)08:57
seb128you are looking for work?08:58
seb128robert_ancell: what issues do you have to get totem to build?08:58
chrisccoulsoni could probably do a bit if there is some to do. the only thing i'm working on at the moment really is http://live.gnome.org/LowDiskSpaceWarning08:59
robert_ancellseb128: I'm still confused by the totem.postinst (I've just added || true to get around this currently) and when I try and install the new packages through dpkg it always seems to conflict09:00
seb128robert_ancell: is your current code online somewhere?09:06
seb128ie in bzr?09:06
seb128btw some note, just do your changes directly to the ubuntu-desktop bzr09:06
seb128doing the change somewhere else is good when you don't have write access to this one09:06

seb128hey rodrigo_09:06
rodrigo_hi seb128!09:07
robert_ancellseb128: yup, will do in the future09:07
seb128rodrigo_: how are you? had a nice trip back after uds?09:07
seb128robert_ancell: "rodrigo_@opensuse" ... you might want to change that ;-)09:07
rodrigo_seb128: now almost recovered from UDS, what about you?09:07
seb128rodrigo_: I got a cold but otherwise I'm good thanks09:08
rodrigo_seb128: yeah, I guess so :)09:08
rodrigo_seb128: again??09:08
* rodrigo_ still with no flu09:08
seb128yeah ... that's what you get when sharing room with somebody having the chilian flu at uds09:09
seb128btw has somebody seen pedro recently?09:09
rodrigo_seb128: no, haven't, ho got back home ok, right?09:09
seb128I don't know that's why I'm asking09:09
rodrigo_s/ho/he09:09
seb128I've no seen him since UDS09:10
robert_ancellseb128: am I missing something here, I try installing the new packages with dpkg but it gets into dependency loops (http://paste.ubuntu.com/187208/) - can dpkg do this or do I need them in an APT repository to handle an upgrade like this?09:10
rodrigo_hmm09:10
robert_ancellseb128: well he got to the airport, we shared a cab there09:11
seb128ok09:11
seb128robert_ancell: the error suggest that you built from somewhere where control was outdated09:11
seb128robert_ancell: "totem-plugins depends on totem-gstreamer (= 2.26.2-0ubuntu1) | totem-xine (= 2.26.2-0ubuntu1)"09:12
robert_ancellseb128: he was feeling sick though so he may not be working09:12
seb128right, I was just wondering if he arrived safely09:12
robert_ancellseb128: I did that at first, then rebuilt control and it still seems to be doing that09:12
seb128he was joking about not being allow to leave the airport if he had fever09:12
seb128because of the flu paranoia etc09:13
seb128so I'm just checking if that was a joke ;-)09:13
seb128robert_ancell: dpkg -I totem-plugins_2.27.1-1ubuntu1_i386.deb | grep Depends09:13
mvoI take the gnome-doc-utils sponsoring (if noone is on it already)09:13
seb128mvo: thanks09:14
robert_ancellseb128: looks ok i think? http://paste.ubuntu.com/187210/09:14
pittiseb128, robert_ancell: bug 380850 makes me unsure whether to sponsor this09:14
ubottuLaunchpad bug 380850 in brasero "Update to 2.27.2" [Wishlist,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/38085009:14
seb128robert_ancell: indeed, I'm wondering from where you get this " totem-plugins depends on totem-gstreamer (= 2.26.2-0ubuntu1) | totem-xine (= 2.26.2-0ubuntu1)"09:15
seb128pitti: what about it? the libraries?09:15
pittiseb128: yes09:15
pittihaven't looked at it yet, though09:16
seb128pitti: I told robert_ancell during uds to do the update, we can split later when required09:16
seb128it's just a Replaces to add09:16
seb128and we will not need to keep it next cycle if that's done before karmic09:16
seb128I'm not sure if those libs make sense yet and if something will use those09:16
seb128ie let's get the new version we can decide on that later09:17
pittiokay09:17
seb128robert_ancell: btw you can "sudo dpkg -i totem*2.27*.deb"09:17
seb128robert_ancell: dpkg doesn't handle things as smartly than apt, sometime you need to run that twice to get things installed09:17
seb128especially if there is some conflicts, etc09:18
seb128robert_ancell: I'm build totem from your bzr right now, will let you know in one minute of it works there09:18
robert_ancellseb128: ok, thanks09:18
=== sabdfl1 is now known as sabdfl
seb128hey sabdfl09:18
robert_ancellseb128: yes, running dpkg twice seems to have done it.  Stupid dpkg! :P09:19
seb128mvo: do we need to unregister alternatives in preinst if the previous version had a prerm doing that?09:19
seb128mvo: ie totem is concerned there09:20
seb128totem 2.26 had that preinst09:20
seb128"if [ "$1" = "remove" ] || [ "$1" = "deconfigure" ] ; then09:20
seb128        update-alternatives --quiet --remove gnome-video-thumbnailer \09:20
seb128                /usr/bin/totem-${FLAVOUR}-video-thumbnailer09:20
seb128        update-alternatives --quiet --remove totem /usr/bin/totem-${FLAVOUR} fi"09:20
seb128fi"09:20
seb128if 2.27 drops all update-alternative handling those will be unregistered on upgrade and not registered again which does the job no?09:21
seb128slomo added a postint to 2.27 in debian doing09:22
seb128"if [ "$1" = configure ] && dpkg --compare-versions "$2" lt "2.27.1-1" ; then09:22
seb128        update-alternatives --quiet --remove-all gnome-video-thumbnailer09:22
seb128        update-alternatives --quiet --remove-all totem09:22
seb128"09:22
seb128is that required?09:22
loolmvo: I'm dist upgrading my desktop to karmic, and I don't get the screen-profiles -> byobu issue (aka byobu is properly selected for installation)09:22
asaccrevette: gnome-bluetooth merge ... is that a sync?09:22
seb128asac, lool, pitti: ^ second opinion welcomed ;-)09:23
loolI just don't know why it's removing mercurial09:23
asaclool: python < 2.609:23
loolasac: ok, I expected such an issue; thanks09:24
robert_ancellseb128: the other thing that needs doing is building the new C youtube plugin.  It needs libgdata to build.  I think it was disabled in Debian? (or is being disable because the builddeps aren't there)09:24
pittiseb128: ugh, TBH I'm not that familiar with alternatives handling, I'm afraid09:24
pochuseb128: you need it for the Hardy -> $nextlts upgrades, don't you?09:25
asacseb128: if the prerm was dont correct then preinst shouldnt need to remove it09:25
seb128robert_ancell: slomo did upload libgdata to debian yesterday, don't build the plugin until we do sync it09:25
asacs/dont/done/09:25
seb128doh09:25
loolseb128: We might not need it, but it might be to force any other alternative to go away09:26
asacseb128: oh let me reread the example09:26
loolseb128: e.g. perhaps someone added a third /usr/local/bin/thumbnailer to the alternative?09:26
seb128is 2.26 preinst triggered when upgrading to 2.2709:26
robert_ancellseb128: ok, I'm off now.  Feel free to make any progress you want on totem :)09:26
loolseb128: That's the only thing I can think of; perhaps slomo had another use case09:26
mvoseb128: the preinst on upgrade is called with "upgrade" so the 2.26 preinst above would not remove the alternative. but the 2.27 should be ok09:26
seb128robert_ancell: ok, have a good evening, see you tomorrow09:26
seb128did I already say how much I dislike alternatives? ;-)09:27
mvoseb128: but I'm not a huge expert for alternatives myself (and I whish they would be declarative :)09:27
asacack ;)09:27
robert_ancelllater all09:27
asacseb128: so is there any --remove in any *rm script in 2.26?09:27
mvorobert_ancell: do you still need brasero sponsoring?09:27
seb128the thing is just ridiculously complex and bug prone most of the time09:27
seb128mvo: pitti is on it apparently, he did a comment about it some minutes ago09:27
pittican do it09:28
robert_ancellmvo: pitti: cheers09:28
crevetteasac, in a sync I guess you don't change something the packaging?09:28
seb128asac: yes, totem-gstreamer.prerm and totem-xine.prerm both remove themself from the alternative09:28
seb128but using09:29
seb128if [ "$1" = "remove" ] || [ "$1" = "deconfigure" ] ; then09:29
seb128so probably not on upgrade?09:29
pochubut you won't get those called from hardy upgrades, or am I missing something?09:29
seb128pochu: why not?09:29
pochuoh, they were in the hardy packages too?09:30
seb128yes09:30

pittiseb128: I don't see a necessary "Replaces:" for brasero (Robert didn't actually split out libbrasero-burn into a separate package), what did you mean?09:36

seb128the karmic version is older than the jaunty-proposed one09:40
seb128ie enable jaunty-proposed if you need09:41
seb128that was not clear, said differently09:41
seb128are you sure you didn't install libraries for jaunty-proposed and commented the source since?09:41
seb128which would mean it can't find matching versions in karmic09:41
seb128just random guess09:41
pittiseb128: I copied some packages from jaunty-proposed to karmic09:44
pittirmadison -s karmic -S evolution-data-server looks okay to me09:44
