SiDiIs there a way to download a package and all its dependencies that are not on a default install of release #.## in packages.ubuntu;com ?14:23
newz2000SiDi: Well... you can use synaptic to create some kind of bundle of packages that you can put on a mem stick or cd for an offline computer14:49
newz2000here's an interesting php prob my brother had...14:53
newz2000he is trying to pull in the rss feed for a google calendar using simplexml and it always comes back in spanish, even though he's not a spanish speaker14:53
newz2000http://www.psi-akl.com/functions.php and http://www.psi-akl.com/functions.phps14:54
newz2000if he uses wget or GET to view the url it's in spanish, but w/ lynx it's in english14:54
SiDiwith lynx his favourite language environment variable is set14:56
SiDii guess there is a way to append such variables before sending a request to the google server14:56
newz2000I've not used fopen() or fopen wrappers (used by simplexml) much. Do you know a way to send this info to google in the request?14:57
SiDiNo /D14:57
SiDiI've never used simplexml14:57
newz2000Either there's not much info on the web about this or the search terms are too diluted to get meaningful results14:58
newz2000(or maybe I don't know how to search properly)14:58
SiDiyou can add attributes to load_file but i doubt there's one for environment vars for a request to a remote server15:01
SiDimaybe its not the way he's meant to get the file15:01
newz2000I think he tried fopen() and wget as well w/ same results15:02
SiDican't he download the file locally (with more appropriate tools for http requests) and then load it ?15:02
newz2000I'll check15:04
newz2000gotta step away for a bit, be back soon15:04
newz2000I think he's trying to learn how to do it using PHP. And really, this should work.15:51
Agafonovnewz2000: do you have some time to talk on website updating? http://www.ubuntu.com/support/local#russian15:57
newz2000Agafonov: yes, what's up?15:57
Agafonovinformation is not comlete and wrong15:59
newz2000Agafonov: can I confirm that you're authorized to suggest changes?16:07
newz2000how about this, would you send me an email to matthew.nuzum@canonical.com with the suggested changes?16:07
AgafonovI'm coordinator but not Russian LoCo contact :(16:08
AgafonovI can ask Team contact to send our text.16:08
newz2000Agafonov: that would be fine16:09
AgafonovIs it supposed to be in English or we can use our native language?16:10
newz2000Hmm. Let me look at it, just a moment16:10
Agafonovcurrently it is in russian16:10
newz2000I think the way you have it now is good16:11
Agafonovbut there only 2 locos are16:11
Agafonovothers are in english16:11
newz2000Agafonov: what do you suggest?16:12
AgafonovI personally prefer russian but how they can find that page if they do not know english? :)16:13
newz2000this is one of our projects for this summer actually. :-)16:14
newz2000but ubuntu.com caters to english speakers16:14
newz2000we'll be adding a feature to help guide non-english speakers to the right place but we're not quite there yet16:15
newz2000so if the content needs changed, please suggest changes and I'll update it. If the way to find the content needs changed, hold tight, we'll be working on that soon16:16
AgafonovI saw some suggestions on bugtracker.16:16
AgafonovAt least links to [approved] LoCo sites will be nice :)16:17

Agafonovthat page is too deep :(16:18
