[00:35] <ripps> Is it possible to make an optional build-depend, one that installs if the distro supplies it, but to keep on building going even if it doesn't?
[00:37] <directhex> ripps, yes
[00:38] <directhex> wait, no
[00:38] <directhex> not build-time
[00:38] <directhex> only binary deps can do it
[00:39] <ripps> I see some packages use 'packageA | packageB;' the only difference, there's no packageB for me.
[00:39] <directhex> piped build-depends don't actually work
[00:39] <directhex> i mean, they work, but they don't work work
[00:40] <directhex> the main archive software used by debian, sbuild, ignores them
[00:43] <ripps> I have a package I use to install a package and it's backports via fta's ppa-script, the issue is that later versions of ubuntu have a library has package which adds additional functionality if it's installed at compile time, but will ignore it if it isn't around. I want to this one package to install properly on all the distros from this single source
[00:47] <fta> ripps, i have the same need, but i don't have a solution for that yet.
[00:48] <fta> ripps, for chromium-browser, i would like to build with binutils-gold whenever it's available (karmic) and stay with the regular binutils otherwise (jaunty..)
[00:49] <fta> ripps, one idea is to backport the build-dep but it's not always wanted or possible
[00:49] <fta> ripps, another idea is to fork the packaging branch :(
[00:51] <masterkernel> Is it all right if I upload my program to both REVU and mentors.debian.net?
[00:52] <directhex> yes, but PLEASE double-check that the orig.tar.gz is the same in both, and will always be the same in both when using a get-orig-source rule (or uscan on a watch file)

[11:56] <alefteris> what am I doing wrong?
[11:58] <geser> have you a deb-src line in your sources.list?
[11:59] <alefteris> geser, yes, I have
[12:01] <alefteris> then I get and the following warning: Did you forget to run apt-get update (or add --update to this command)? at /usr/bin/reverse-build-depends line 234.
[12:01] <geser> did you run "sudo apt-get update"? and it exited without error?
[12:04] <alefteris> yes, update finishes fine, upgrade has some packages that can't be upgraded (because of new version of kernel and restricted stuff?)
[12:05] <alefteris> you think it has to do with the problem?
[12:06] <geser> no, upgrade has nothing to do with it, update just fetches the list including the one you need for reverse-build-depends
[12:06] <geser> doesn't it still works?
[12:08] <alefteris> no, I still get the same errors
[12:09] <geser> hmm
[12:21] <Ampelbein> alefteris: can you pastebin your /etc/sources.list ? what happens if you run 'sudo reverse-build-depends package' ?
[12:23] <Ampelbein> alefteris: also try 'reverse-build-depends -s -u package'
[12:23] <Laney> sudo?
[12:26] <alefteris> Ampelbein, tried the last command, didn't help, my source are at http://paste.ubuntu.com/200735/
[12:31] <Ampelbein> alefteris: what package are you trying? could it be one from the ppa's you have in your sources.list?
[12:32] <alefteris> Ampelbein, cdbs for example
[12:39] <Ampelbein> alefteris: ok, can you try 'reverse-build-depends -d cdbs 2>&1 | grep DEBUG' and pastebin the output?
[12:39] <alefteris> Ampelbein, found it, by default it will search for karmic sources, so I need to spesify --distribution jaunty :)
[12:40] <Ampelbein> alefteris: ah, ok.
[12:40] <Ampelbein> i'm on karmic so I didn't notice
[14:20] <alefteris> I can search for packages that have debhelper as a build-dep with: grep-dctrl -F Build-Depends debhelper -s Package /var/lib/apt/lists/archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_jaunty_universe_source_Sources
[14:20] <alefteris> but how to search for debhelper >= 7?
[14:22] <alefteris> grep-dctrl man page mentions a --ge switch (greater or equal), but I can't figure our how to use it :(
[14:41] <Ampelbein> alefteris: i think that switch is only for version comparisons. Use a regexp to find it, like 'grep-dctrl -F Build-Depends -r --pattern debhelper.\(\>=.7.* -s Package /var/lib/apt/lists/archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_karmic_*_Sources'

[17:33] <slytherin> geser: I don't see doxia-sitetools on FTBFS page
[17:37] <geser> slytherin: because it FTBFS in jaunty already and didn't get retried in karmic (therefore there is no build record in karmic which could be shown on the FTBFS page)
