| panaggio | I'm installing a package here that has libg2c0-dev as a dependency. Is this package no longer supported by ubuntu community? | 02:15 |
| panaggio | the last release that supported it was hardy | 02:15 |
| ajmitch | try libg2-dev instead | 02:16 |
| panaggio | ajmitch: I think they're a bit different | 02:21 |
| panaggio | the one I need stands for Fortran 77 | 02:22 |
| ajmitch | sorry, I misread the apt-cache output | 02:22 |
| panaggio | whereas the one you suggested offers 2D graphics | 02:22 |
| panaggio | ajmitch: no problem | 02:23 |
| ajmitch | libg2c0 comes from the gcc-3.4 source, and it doesn't appear to build a -dev package | 02:23 |
| panaggio | ajmitch: but there was this package in hardy http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/libg2c0-dev | 02:24 |
| ajmitch | which appears to no longer be built | 02:26 |
| ScottK | I have a vague recollection of us getting out of the Fortran 77 business. | 02:29 |
| * ajmitch remembers laserjock complaining about it at one point | 02:30 | |
| micahg | do we really need 5 versions of gcc? | 02:34 |
| micahg | is there anything that even uses gcc-3.4 anymore? | 02:36 |
| ScottK | micahg: Yes. There is. We remove them when nothing uses them anymore. | 02:40 |
| ScottK | It's actually 6 in Karmic. | 02:41 |
| micahg | there are 6 that depend on it? | 02:42 |
| ScottK | No, 6 gcc versions. | 02:43 |
| ScottK | Picked up 4.4 and didn't lose any yet. | 02:43 |
| micahg | oh | 02:43 |
| ScottK | I note 3.3 is still there. Not sure why. | 02:43 |
| * ajmitch is glad we don't have 2.95 still | 02:44 | |
| * RAOF fondly remembers some development on Windows with gcc 2.95 | 02:45 | |
| micahg | 3.3's only source at this point seemingly | 02:45 |
| * ScottK remembers filing the removal bug for 2.95 (during Hardy) | 02:46 | |
| ScottK | micahg: That and libstdc++5 | 02:46 |
| ajmitch | those fond memories of c++ fun | 02:46 |
| ScottK | libstdc++5 has no reverse build depends, so I suspect this can go. | 02:46 |
| micahg | Can I look those up through rdepends? | 02:47 |
| ajmitch | I think it may have been kept around for those old pieces of proprietary software | 02:47 |
| ScottK | Also looks like glassfish-bin somehow cares. | 02:47 |
| ScottK | micahg: You need the reverse-build-depends script in ubuntu-dev-tools. | 02:48 |
| micahg | ah | 02:48 |
| ScottK | micahg: Or apt-cache rdepends for run time dependencies. | 02:48 |
| ScottK | Of which libstdc++5 has some. | 02:48 |
| kb9vqf_ | ScottK: UT2004 (a somewhat popular game that was released for Windows and Linux) still uses libstdc++5 | 02:50 |
| * kb9vqf_ thinks it might not be a good idea to remove it | 02:50 | |
| ajmitch | there are a few like that | 02:51 |
| ScottK | Killing off 4.1 might be a better shot. | 02:52 |

| ubottu | Launchpad bug 394142 in epcr "FTBFS with GCC 4.4" [Medium,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/394142 | 08:07 |
| fabrice_sp | I have a debdiff (I was waiting for build before opening the bug report) | 08:08 |
| fabrice_sp | is it too late? | 08:08 |
| fabrice_sp | (by the way: good morning everybody!) | 08:08 |
| quadrispro | buongiorno fabrice_sp, I think it had better wait to see if new release comes from debian | 08:10 |
| fabrice_sp | quadrispro, the bug report is from November, but ok | 08:11 |
| quadrispro | fabrice_sp: mmm | 08:11 |
| slytherin | quadrispro: it is better to wait if there is a bug opened in debian about same FTBFS. By the way AFAIK, Debian has not switched to GCC-4.4 yet. | 08:12 |
| fabrice_sp | slytherin, even if the bug is 8 month old? | 08:13 |
| fabrice_sp | bug report, I mean | 08:13 |
| slytherin | fabrice_sp: in that case no. If the bug report in Debian is 8 months old it makes sense to fix it in Ubuntu and forward the patch to Debian. | 08:14 |
| fabrice_sp | ok | 08:14 |
| quadrispro | fabrice_sp: could you get in touch with the Debian maintainer to know what he would to do? | 08:14 |
| quadrispro | fabrice_sp: however, please attach the patch to the report | 08:15 |
| fabrice_sp | quadrispro, sure, but as last comment was that he prefers to wait for upstream, I'm not sure it will make things go further | 08:16 |
| fabrice_sp | but I'll attach the patch, anyway | 08:16 |
| fabrice_sp | done | 08:20 |

| slytherin | jmarsden: Do you have any plans about updating iriverter? | 10:12 |
| recreatedme | sorry for this noob question, but where do i properly seek mentorship? | 10:19 |
| maxb | slytherin: pong. Have been struggling in vain to find some sort of Debian (not Ubuntu) policy to verify that upstreaming Build-Depends: s/default-jdk-builddep/default-jdk/ is valid | 10:20 |
| gaspa | recreatedme: what do you exactly mean? have you seen https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Mentoring ? | 10:23 |
| recreatedme | gaspa, it would seem, what i'm looking for is "preparing new packages" https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Contributing | 10:25 |
| gaspa | recreatedme: I think mentoring program concern also 'new packages'. But i'm not directly involved in. I can assure you. | 10:27 |
| recreatedme | though would that still be ok? if i already uploaded in mentors.debian? | 10:27 |
| recreatedme | ah i see | 10:27 |
| gaspa | ubuntu as revu in place of mentors.debian... | 10:28 |
| gaspa | s/as/has | 10:28 |
| recreatedme | yeah, so if someone would actually offer mentorship in debian, which seems hard to come by.. | 10:29 |
| rawang | I'm also seeking mentors (sponsors) for my new package | 10:29 |
| recreatedme | which would be advisable? | 10:29 |
| recreatedme | to revu or to mentor? | 10:30 |
| gaspa | recreatedme: i'm a bit confused. Are you searching sponsors for new packages in debian or ubuntu? | 10:31 |
| recreatedme | at first in debian, but seeing so many packages pushed there for mentorship, i'm considering ubuntu | 10:32 |
| gaspa | recreatedme: if you're searching for debian, it'd be better asking in debian channels. otherwise, use REVU. | 10:33 |
| rawang | gaspa, I'm also want some people to be my sponsor, where is the place to find those people? | 10:36 |
| rawang | gaspa, the wiki said, i have to have at least 3-5 sponsors | 10:36 |
| rawang | for new package | 10:36 |
| gaspa | rawang: sponsors for what? | 10:36 |
| gaspa | ah | 10:36 |

| recreatedme | gaspa: i'm actually not just searching for package reviewer, but also try to seek advice as to weather wait for mentorship in debian? or actively seek revu'ers in ubuntu. | 10:37 |
| Laney | don't wait for a debian sponsor, hunt one out | 10:38 |
| recreatedme | laney, ah so that's the name of game :) | 10:38 |
| Laney | find a packaging team that deals in your area | 10:39 |
| gaspa | rawang: you need at least two motu that assure that you're package is ok. | 10:39 |
| recreatedme | i just thought it was just upload a package for review in mentors then just sit tight, heheh i guess not :D | 10:40 |
| gaspa | recreatedme: you'd be pretty lucky... | 10:40 |
| rawang | gaspa, ok, i can have freeflying as one of them, but what i have remembered directhex was not a MOTU? | 10:40 |
| recreatedme | gaspa, true | 10:40 |
| rawang | gaspa, so would you mind to be my sponsor? :) | 10:41 |
| fabrice_sp | rawang, I still don't understand what you are looking for | 10:41 |
| fabrice_sp | if you want your package to be reviewed, just request it | 10:42 |
| fabrice_sp | if you want to become a MOTU, you ahve a long way in front of you | 10:42 |
| gaspa | fabrice_sp: :) | 10:42 |
| fabrice_sp | and a lot aof debdiff sponsored | 10:42 |
| fabrice_sp | :-) | 10:42 |
| rawang | fabrice_sp, ok, I'm looking for sponsors to review my new packages, and I'd like to be a MOTU, so i still need sponsors to grant me :) | 10:43 |
| gaspa | rawang: I never reviewed a package, so don't expect an "ACK" from me, but Ill take a look. | 10:43 |
| gaspa | "I'll" | 10:43 |
| rawang | gaspa, sure, thank you | 10:43 |
| freeflying | rawang: r u mean mentors? | 10:43 |
| rawang | mentors are for packages, sponsors are for MOTU? | 10:44 |
| fabrice_sp | rawang, for the REVU part, just post the link, and request for review. For MOTU, submit a lot of debdiff closing bugs ;-) | 10:44 |
| fabrice_sp | sponsor is the MOTU that accept to 'sponsor' your upload, using a debdiff. The debdiff is a way to submit a change to an existing pacakge | 10:44 |
| fabrice_sp | closing a bug report | 10:45 |
| fabrice_sp | so first, find the bug, post the debdiff that fix it, and then request sponsoship | 10:45 |
| slytherin | rawang: you need 2 advocates for new packages not 3-5. And directhex is a MOTU. | 10:45 |
| rawang | ok, now I understand | 10:46 |
| fabrice_sp | when you get known, reliable, and after a lot of upload, you can apply for motuship | 10:46 |
| fabrice_sp | so I think you're looking for reviewers | 10:46 |
| fabrice_sp | :-D | 10:46 |
| rawang | OK, first of all, I need someone to review my new package, and help to upload :) | 10:46 |
| fabrice_sp | url? | 10:47 |
| fabrice_sp | :-) | 10:47 |
| slytherin | rawang: by the way, creating new packages i not the only path towards motuship. you can fix packages, help with important transitions etc. I believe there are few MOTUs who have never created packages from scratch. | 10:47 |
| rawang | fabrice_sp, http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/p/strongwind | 10:47 |
| fabrice_sp | rawang, your package build fine in Karmic? | 10:48 |
| rawang | slytherin, oh, yeah. thanks for telling that. It's helpful :) | 10:48 |
| rawang | fabrice_sp, yep | 10:48 |
| fabrice_sp | I'll check ;-) | 10:48 |
| rawang | fabrice_sp, https://launchpad.net/~raywang/+archive/ppa, the only difference between my upload on REVU and there is add a COPYING file | 10:49 |
| rawang | fabrice_sp, since I can't update the built package on my PPA, what I only could do is raise the version number which i don't want :( | 10:50 |
| rawang | slytherin, for being a package maintainer, how many packages I should maintain could help me to be a MOTU? | 10:52 |
| Laney | rawang: Don't worry about that, when you're ready people will tell you | 10:52 |
| Laney | there's no fixed number | 10:52 |
| rawang | Laney, yeah, I know, I mean at least :) | 10:52 |
| * Laney shrugs | 10:52 | |
| Laney | "some" | 10:52 |
| slytherin | rawang: It is more about quality. When people are confident about you, they will tell you. | 10:52 |
| Laney | if you want to focus only on your own packages you can get upload rights just for those ones | 10:53 |
| rawang | Laney, slytherin ok, i see ;) | 10:53 |
| Laney | MOTU isn't just about maintaining our own packages, we do lots of other stuff too | 10:53 |
| rawang | Laney, hmm, not sure, I think i'll probably focus on my own packages | 10:54 |
| rawang | Laney, ok | 10:54 |
| fabrice_sp | rawang, lintian throw me that warnings: | 10:55 |
| fabrice_sp | W: python-strongwind: copyright-lists-upstream-authors-with-dh_make-boilerplate | 10:55 |

| fabrice_sp | fabrice@fabrice-desktop:~/data/build/revu$ | 10:55 |
| rawang | Laney, so that means focus on one's package is not enough or incompetent to be a MOTU? :) | 10:55 |
| fabrice_sp | rawang, nop | 10:55 |
| Laney | more, I think it means that you want per-package uploader rights | 10:55 |
| fabrice_sp | have a look at my launchpad account, and you'll see: i'm not yet a motu | 10:55 |
| rawang | fabrice_sp, will do | 10:56 |

| AndrewGe1 | Hi. I'm trying to fix a package that's picking up a wrong directory for a python directory in a configure script. When I autoreconf and autoconf with a newer version than what was used for the packaged script, should I patch the configure script manually? | 13:52 |
| === AndrewGe1 is now known as AndrewGee | ||
| geser | AndrewGee: the autoreconf fixed it and you ask how to best package the fix? | 13:53 |
| AndrewGee | geser: Yes. | 13:54 |
| geser | does the package use a patch system already? | 13:54 |
| AndrewGee | I've set up dpatch for it ready, for just this fix. | 13:54 |
| geser | usually it's not well liked to introduce a patch system where none was used, but in this case I'd prefer one (else merging configure will be a pain) | 13:56 |
| AndrewGee | Okay. So I should just patch the configure script? | 13:56 |
| geser | so please use a patch system and also include in the patch description how to recreate this patch if needed | 13:56 |
| AndrewGee | Okay :) | 13:56 |

| evanrmurphy | dholbach: Hi! You still there? | 15:14 |
| dholbach | evanrmurphy: yep | 15:16 |
| evanrmurphy | dholbach: Thanks for answering my question. It's totally fine that you removed my comment on the wiki, but perhaps you could explain a bit more to help me understand, as I'm still gaining familiarity with these tools. | 15:16 |
| dholbach | sure | 15:16 |
| evanrmurphy | dholbach: I guess I understand in principle the difference between building a binary package and building the source. | 15:16 |
| evanrmurphy | Wel, I think. ;) | 15:16 |
| dholbach | just running "debuild" will give you .deb packages in the end, so installable binary packages | 15:16 |
| dholbach | "debuild -S" will rebuild the source package, so give you a .diff.gz and a .dsc file for your .orig.tar.gz | 15:17 |
| evanrmurphy | hmmm | 15:17 |
| evanrmurphy | I see | 15:17 |
| evanrmurphy | it builds the .diff.gz based off, for example, the changes we made to hello earlier in the tutorial. | 15:18 |
| dholbach | exactly | 15:18 |
| evanrmurphy | but then in building the source package, we go on to run sudo pbuilder build ../*.dsc | 15:18 |
| evanrmurphy | doesn't that build the deb just like the previous section? | 15:18 |
| dholbach | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/Recipes/Debdiff plays with the source package creation a bit | 15:18 |
| evanrmurphy | thanks | 15:19 |
| dholbach | yes, but you need to have the source package (.dsc, .diff.gz, .orig.tar.gz) before you start running pbuilder on it | 15:19 |
| Drknezz | Hi guys! | 15:19 |
| evanrmurphy | dholbach: So the difference between the .deb created in the binary section from the one created in the source section: | 15:20 |
| dholbach | there's no .deb created in the source section | 15:20 |
| Drknezz | I want to ask something, why did you leave adept? packagekit is so bad, it barely displays GUI apps, and not all of 'em :( | 15:20 |
| dholbach | there's no compilation or installation of files happening there | 15:20 |
| evanrmurphy | the .deb created in pbuilder doesn't count? :-/ | 15:20 |
| dholbach | Drknezz: you might want to ask in #kubuntu-devel | 15:20 |
| Drknezz | dholbach: oh!, ok | 15:21 |
| dholbach | evanrmurphy: pbuilder calls something like "debuild" in the process | 15:21 |
| dholbach | evanrmurphy: pbuilder does not build a source package, it requires it beforehand | 15:21 |
| evanrmurphy | Hmmm... I think I see now. | 15:22 |
| evanrmurphy | dholbach: We need to build the binary package and the source package, correct? | 15:23 |
| evanrmurphy | dholbach: I'm sure this will come together better for me as I continue perusing the documentation. Thanks a lot for your time. | 15:24 |
| dholbach | evanrmurphy: the most common workflow is to do something like this: apt-get source A; cd A-*; <do some changes, add changelog entry>; debuild -S; pbuild the resulting new source package; play with the resulting new .deb package; when happy, send debdiff between both .dsc files for review | 15:26 |
| dholbach | or if you're part of the uploader team, upload the resulting source package | 15:26 |
| dholbach | instead of using pbuilder, you can use debuild too, to build the package locally | 15:27 |
| evanrmurphy | dholbach: That helps me very much to see a workflow overview like that. | 15:28 |
| dholbach | great | 15:28 |
| evanrmurphy | dholbach: Unless I'm still off-base here, I guess my comment on the wiki came from confusion because it appears that in the section Building the Package, we build a binary package, whereas in Building the Source Package, we build a source package *and then* build a(nother) binary package. | 15:31 |
| dholbach | evanrmurphy: maybe we need some kind of "overview" or workflow diagram or something | 15:32 |
| evanrmurphy | dholbach: So if you follow both sections, you end up with two binaries. What I neglected to understand there is that they are two different ways to build the package, a la, "dholbach> instead of using pbuilder, you can use debuild too, to build the package locally" | 15:32 |
| evanrmurphy | but it's not a huge deal | 15:33 |
| dholbach | I see what you mean | 15:33 |
| evanrmurphy | dholbach: Maybe I'll just tweak the phrasing a bit to remedy my particular confusion. | 15:33 |
| quadrispro | Laney: matrices seems taken from a website, but they aren't covered by any license | 15:34 |
| dholbach | evanrmurphy: that'd be sweet | 15:34 |
| evanrmurphy | dholbach: Thanks again! :) | 15:34 |
| dholbach | evanrmurphy: rock on! | 15:34 |
| Laney | quadrispro: please confirm they are redistributable | 15:34 |
| quadrispro | Laney: mmm... the right solution may be exclude them from the binary (even their contents are only numbers) | 15:35 |
| quadrispro | mmm... no | 15:35 |
| Laney | no that wouldn't help | 15:35 |
| * quadrispro confused | 15:35 | |
| quadrispro | Laney: ok, and... repacking the tarball? | 15:37 |
| quadrispro | mmm | 15:37 |
| Laney | well | 15:37 |
| Laney | presumably they're in there for a reason? | 15:37 |
| * gaspa 's trying to compile unleaden swallow on arm :| omg! | 15:37 | |
| quadrispro | yes, README.matrices explains well, but they aren't strictly needed | 15:38 |
| quadrispro | simply, they allow user to fit a whole movie on a single CD | 15:40 |
| Laney | you should ask for an archive opinion, but AFAIK all source files need to have license information clearly specified | 15:40 |
| quadrispro | ScottK: what do you think about it? | 15:40 |
| Laney | Note that under international copyright law (this applies in the United States, too), no distribution or modification of a work is allowed without an explicit notice saying so. Therefore a program without a copyright notice is copyrighted and you may not do anything to it without risking being sued! Likewise if a program has a copyright notice but no statement saying what is permitted then nothing is permitted. | 15:41 |
| quadrispro | Laney: yes, I know that | 15:41 |
| Laney | it's clear that the upstream author didn't create them | 15:42 |
| ScottK | Laney: Generally we take the position that if a full copy of the license is included in a tarball it applies to all the files in the tarball unless there is a reason to believe it doesn't. | 15:42 |
| Laney | ScottK: There is a reason - the author says he took them from elsewhere | 15:42 |
| quadrispro | those files contain only number, there's no code | 15:42 |
| Laney | I would have thought they were copyrightable still | 15:42 |
| ScottK | So in general per file copyright/license stuff is not strictly required. | 15:43 |
| === Quintasan_ is now known as Quintasan | ||
| ScottK | quadrispro: As an example, if I take a bunch of data and index it, the index is copyrightable even though it has no original content. The creative work is in the organization of it. | 15:43 |
| quadrispro | but Laney, I think that numbers couldn't be covered by any kind of license | 15:43 |
| Laney | they are clearly a creative work | 15:44 |
| quadrispro | mmm | 15:44 |
| ScottK | quadrispro: Are these numbers the result of natural mathmatics or was some thought original work of authorship needed to create them? | 15:44 |
| MTecknology | What's the package for the bretty boot screen | 15:45 |
| quadrispro | ScottK, I can find a lot of website where these "matrices" are available for the download but I don't know, so we can keep them out from the tarball, user will be free to decide what to do | 15:48 |
| quadrispro | and probably it's the better solution | 15:48 |
| Laney | urgh, building GHC | 15:49 |
| ScottK | quadrispro: I think that's a good solution. In the meantime you might try to hunt down the original source and get permission. | 15:49 |
| quadrispro | right, I'll work on it later | 15:52 |

| ximion | c_korn: To move the debuginfos into a separate package, you have to use --dbg-package=listaller-gtk-dbg after dh_strip in a non-CDBS-based rules file... | 19:57 |
| ximion | ...I'll look it up for CDBS... To the .install-file: Just try it! | 19:58 |
| ximion | c_korn: You have to add the following modification to your CDBS-rules file to enable stripping of debuginfos: DEB_DH_STRIP_ARGS := --dbg-package=<package1> ... | 20:00 |
| ximion | DEB_DH_STRIP_ARGS := --dbg-package=<package1> ... | 20:00 |
| c_korn | hm, I remember that a -dbg was also created successfully without that argument. but thanks. I give it a try. | 20:00 |
| ximion | DEB_DH_STRIP_ARGS := --dbg-package=gnome-commander-dbg | 20:01 |
| ximion | c_korn: Okay, maybe this is implemente in the gnome-module... | 20:01 |
| c_korn | ximion: yes, the argument is already passed to dh_strip: dh_strip -pgnome-commander --dbg-package=gnome-commander-dbg | 20:02 |
| ximion | could someone please review http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/p/projectm-jack and http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/p/projectm-jack ? The packages provide projectM-visualisation support for JackAudio. | 20:13 |
| c_korn | ximion: it was "debian/tmp/*" in the .install file actually. but now it works. thanks | 20:27 |
| RoAkSoAx | Hey guys, dependencies in libxul-dev should be changed to xulrunner-1.9-dev right? | 20:52 |
| directhex | xulrunner-dev, no? | 21:00 |
| directhex | libxul-dev is for 1.8, the app may need patching to work with 1.9x | 21:01 |
| RoAkSoAx | directhex, right, but the dependency should be xulrunner-1.9-dev, or should it be xulrunner-dev ? | 21:02 |
| directhex | RoAkSoAx, do you want it to build against firefox 3.0, or the default firefox? | 21:12 |
| RoAkSoAx | directhex, another app is using xulrunner | 21:12 |
| RoAkSoAx | asac, shouldn't xulrunner-1.9-dev be install in '/usr/lib/xulrunner-devel-1.9' instead of '/usr/lib/xulrunner-devel-1.9.0.11' ? | 21:13 |
| directhex | RoAkSoAx, xulrunner-1.9-dev is for firefox 3's version of xulrunner. xulrunner-1.9.1-dev is for firefox 3.5's version of xulrunner. xulrunner-dev is whichever's the default. which is right for you? | 21:14 |
| RoAkSoAx | directhex, I think I'll keep xulrunner-dev | 21:14 |
| geser | RoAkSoAx: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/XulrunnerGecko but I don't know if it's still up-to-date | 21:35 |
| RoAkSoAx | thanks geser :) | 21:35 |
| ajmitch | or you could ask the fine people in the mozillateam channel who probably know more :) | 21:38 |

| C10uD | hello, i wanted to build gst-plugins-bad-multiverse in my ppa | 21:59 |
| C10uD | but i need libmimic-dev | 21:59 |
| C10uD | which is in debian but not ubuntu | 21:59 |
| C10uD | if i load that lib in my ppa will it be found when retrying to package gst-..? or i must request inclusion of libmimic in ubuntu? | 22:00 |
| geser | C10uD: if you make it available in your PPA it will be also available as a build-dependency for other packages in your PPA | 22:04 |
| C10uD | ok geser thank you | 22:04 |
| masterkernel | is nvidia-common in the multiverse repo? | 22:12 |
| micahg | masterkernel: it's in main | 22:14 |
| masterkernel | is there a irc channel for those guys? or is it just -ubuntu | 22:15 |
| masterkernel | ignore that last part | 22:15 |
| RoAkSoAx | Heya guys how can I fix this building error? error: could not create '/usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/cobbler': Permission denied | 23:08 |
| RAOF | Looks like you're (at least) failing to set --prefix. But how to actually set this is build-system dependent; we'll need more context. | 23:10 |
| RoAkSoAx | RAOF, this is actually a python app and there's no prefix to set since I'm passing 'python setup.py install' the install process | 23:14 |
| RAOF | Right. So, you pass "python setup.py install --prefix=/usr" :) | 23:15 |
| RAOF | There is a prefix :) | 23:15 |
| RoAkSoAx | RAOF, I see though --prefix was only good on C/C++ apps :) | 23:16 |
| geser | RoAkSoAx: you are missing --root | 23:21 |
| geser | it tries to install into the root file-system instead of below debian/tmp | 23:21 |
| geser | and you should also use --install-layout=deb instead of --prefix (IIRC the both don't work together very well) | 23:22 |
| RoAkSoAx | geser, ok cool thanks :) | 23:23 |
| RAOF | I see python packaging has changed. Superb. | 23:23 |
| * RAOF squirrels that away. | 23:23 | |
| RoAkSoAx | I already have the package packaged with CDBS, though I'm trying to package it with debhelper | 23:23 |
| ajmitch | RAOF: only every release or so | 23:24 |
| RAOF | And then we get to migrate to python 3, and break everything? | 23:25 |
| geser | sure :) that will be fun | 23:25 |
| ajmitch | the little shift from site-packages to dist-packages has been enough fun | 23:26 |
| RoAkSoAx | --install-layout does not work | 23:26 |
| ajmitch | that reminds me, I need to get back to unbreaking nevow since I said I'd do it | 23:26 |
| ajmitch | it of course is failing with py 2.6 | 23:27 |
| geser | RoAkSoAx: how? | 23:27 |
| RoAkSoAx | geser, error: option --install-layout not recognized | 23:28 |
| ajmitch | what is the line you are using for setup.py? | 23:28 |
| RoAkSoAx | 'python setup.py install' | 23:28 |
| ajmitch | with no options? | 23:28 |
| RoAkSoAx | ajmitch, now --prefix=/usr which sets the right path | 23:29 |
| RoAkSoAx | ajmitch, and yes no other options. I'm just learning packaging from scratch | 23:29 |
| RoAkSoAx | anyways, I'm trying to debianize and app, which is fedora based. So I need to make many changes to the install process. Should I just modify setup.py ?? | 23:30 |
| ajmitch | --install-layout=deb --root=$(CURDIR)/debian/cobbler | 23:30 |
| geser | is it a usual setup.py (from python-setuptools?) or a custom one just also named setup.py? | 23:30 |
| * ajmitch thinks that --root is right, it may be wrong | 23:31 | |
| RoAkSoAx | geser, i believe it is with python-setuptools: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/207775/ | 23:32 |
| geser | either that or $(CURDIR)/debian/tmp | 23:32 |
| RoAkSoAx | ajmitch, geser ok thanks. :) | 23:32 |
| ajmitch | RoAkSoAx: so remove --prefix, it can't be used together with --install-layout | 23:33 |
| RoAkSoAx | ajmitch, I was not using it together with --install-layout | 23:33 |
| ajmitch | ok, you'd just mentioned you still had it, so I thought I'd warn you away from another build failure :) | 23:33 |
| * ajmitch is *still* waiting for php5 to compile here | 23:34 | |
| * geser moves to bed, good night all | 23:34 | |
| ajmitch | night | 23:34 |
| RoAkSoAx | night geser | 23:35 |
| RoAkSoAx | ajmitch, thanks. It now builds :) | 23:36 |
| RoAkSoAx | should I start modifying the setup.py and other upstream files to be able to run it in Ubuntu/Debian systems? | 23:38 |
| cpscotti | Ampelbein: I corrected some of the issues of the harpia package ( http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/p/harpia ) you just reviewed. I did some questions on the others. Thanks for the review! | 23:40 |
| Ampelbein | cpscotti: looking. | 23:41 |
| Ampelbein | cpscotti: yeah, you are right on number 2, I thought it was a python-library, so harpia is ok. regarding dh_desktop: it does not do anything anymore, see http://lintian.debian.org/tags/dh_desktop-is-deprecated.html | 23:48 |
