| savvas | is there a way to prevent a package from building in certain architectures? can "Architecture" be used for the Source package in debian/control? | 03:31 |
|---|---|---|
| StevenK | savvas: The simplest way is to get the package added to Packages-arch-specific, and then Soyuz won't even add builds for those arches | 03:36 |
| savvas | ah, it's an old package, gambas 1 :) | 03:36 |
| savvas | the best way would be to patch it for 2, but I don't know that programming language hehe | 03:37 |
| savvas | StevenK: thanks though, noted! | 03:37 |

| loell | general question, if one is to package for debian, does one really needs to setup a debian system and not ubuntu? | 10:10 |
| gaspa | loell: it's really better, you can find differences in build systems, too. | 10:11 |
| loell | gaspa, it's just i'm really frustrated at setting up sid :( | 10:12 |
| gaspa | loell: just use a virtual machine. | 10:12 |
| loell | sidux? | 10:13 |
| loell | i mean vm with sidux? or generic sid? | 10:13 |
| gaspa | loell: I didn't know sidux... it depends from how it differ from a clean debian, imho. | 10:14 |
| loell | ok | 10:14 |
| loell | this has actually made me appreciate more, at how ubuntu makes it easier for packagers | 10:15 |
| directhex | i just use a pbuilder & wait to get moaned at if it breaks in a real environment | 10:19 |
| directhex | i'm naughty like that | 10:19 |
| siretart` | directhex: how do you test your debian builds then? pbuilder login? | 10:20 |
| loell | on related question, does lintian depend on specific build environment? | 10:21 |
| directhex | siretart, aye | 10:21 |
| loell | directhex, i wish i could do something like that too, but not having a mentor is difficult to hide what your build environment really is :) | 10:24 |
| directhex | loell, it becomes easier (to break the archive?) ifwhen the powers that be approve my DD application | 10:26 |
| loell | directhex, oh my, i couldn't wait to be under your wings :D | 10:27 |
| loell | OTH, how about i should just do the revu route then give back to debian later? | 10:30 |
| loell | how feasible would that be? | 10:31 |
| loell | or more generally, how does ubuntu give back to debian again? ;) | 10:32 |
| RAOF | loell: Well, by joining one of the various debian CLI teams! | 10:33 |
| loell | ah i see | 10:34 |
| slytherin | directhex: banshee works very well in jaunty (i386). :-) | 10:38 |
| slytherin | loell: What problems are you facing setting up sid? | 10:38 |
| directhex | slytherin, i wish i had the means to track down this ppc thing though :( | 10:45 |
| directhex | slytherin, lack of access to hardware sucks. is there no way to use qemu effectively? | 10:45 |
| loell | slytherin, setting up the build environment | 10:53 |

| slytherin | loell: I thoought you were having issues in installing Debian sid | 11:16 |
| loell | slytherin, and that too | 11:17 |
| slytherin | loell: what kind of issues in installation? | 11:17 |
| slytherin | directhex: how hard is it to track without hardware? | 11:18 |
| loell | minor once, i must concede | 11:18 |
| loell | like no grub entry for ubuntu | 11:18 |
| loell | no pidgin package!? | 11:19 |
| directhex | slytherin, well, it's a PPC-only bug you've got, so i need a way to reproduce it to isolate it. | 11:19 |
| directhex | slytherin, i think the problem is with the sqlite binding, but that's a pure guess | 11:19 |
| loell | slytherine, in ubuntu, ubuntu-dev meta-package would most probably be enough | 11:20 |
| loell | but i'm stumped on how to redo that on sid | 11:20 |
| loell | err i mean ubuntu-dev-tools | 11:22 |
| slytherin | directhex: hmm, does it look like one of those endian related issues? | 11:26 |
| directhex | slytherin, i don't know. not obviously so, but i'd be surprised if it was something else | 11:26 |
| slytherin | loell: there is no ubuntu-dev-tools package for Debian (it's obvious). And you don't need ubuntu-dev-tools to setup pbuilder for Debian sid. | 11:27 |
| slytherin | directhex: do you have any idea where I should I look for the problem? Banshee code or sqlite bindings? | 11:28 |
| loell | which i just installed pbuilder which requires me a mirror? | 11:28 |
| loell | i could have swear i've use pbuilder in ubuntu many times, but setting a mirror wasn't one of them, when i use it | 11:29 |
| slytherin | loell: have you gone through https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PbuilderHowto It nicely explains how to setup different chroots from Debian and Ubuntu. | 11:30 |
| slytherin | directhex: pm? | 12:00 |
| directhex | slytherin, well the challenge is trying to find a reproducible test case, but it's such a wide search space :/ | 12:02 |

| rrittenhouse | Anyone know how soon firefox 3.5 might be available as a replacement to firefox 3.0 in 9.04? | 13:32 |
| ogra | never ? | 13:42 |
| RainCT | ogra: I think it'll be made available in -backports | 13:43 |
| ogra | right | 13:43 |
| ogra | but not as a replacement | 13:43 |
| slytherin | ogra is correct here. It will never be made available as replacement. | 13:44 |
| RainCT | right, missed that part of the question | 13:44 |
| RainCT | (but it can be set as the default browser in System -> Preferences -> Preferred Applications, of course) | 13:45 |

| geser | depends on how quick it get fixed in Debian, I'd probably do a mix of 1 and 2: Test build, upload (if patch is necessary) or sync, and forward the patch to Debian | 14:06 |

| kklimonda | asac, why doesn't firefox 3.5 (the one from jaunty-security) doesn't use mozilla branding? | 17:56 |
| kklimonda | erm, doesn't.. sigh.. i need some sleep | 17:57 |
| asac | kklimonda: we only ship the default browser with official branding | 17:59 |
| asac | also we explicitly want the package to be installed side by side | 18:00 |
| asac | and having same branding causes confusino then | 18:00 |
| asac | because you cannot identify, what icon mean what ;) | 18:00 |
| kklimonda | i see, thanks | 18:00 |
| asac | but first reason is the dominating reason. also changing branding in a -security update is beyond its scope (even beyond SRU) | 18:00 |
| asac | its a main UI element ... and changing UI is officially forbidden | 18:01 |

| kklimonda | joaopinto, i think I've attached a debdiff for it to update to 3.1.2.. I'm almost sure that I should have done it differently (i.e. attach .orig.tar.gz and .diff.gz) but I couldn't find a right page when I was last working on that | 18:36 |

| RoAkSoAx | Hey guys, I'm trying to package from scratch an app. This app already comes with a debian/ directory. What should be done in this cases? | 19:34 |
| nhandler | RoAkSoAx: You can try and contact the upstream developer to try and have them remove that directory from the tarball | 19:34 |
| RoAkSoAx | nhandler, if they refuse to do that?? Should I just debianize it myself? | 19:35 |
| hggdh | RoAkSoAx, you can code a get-orig-source to clean up the upstream tarball, and then debianise from there | 19:46 |
| hggdh | (in ./debian/rules) | 19:47 |
| RoAkSoAx | hggdh, you mean for example create a script that cleans up the upstreams tarball or a Makefile that does that? | 19:49 |
| hggdh | RoAkSoAx, if this is a new package, just clean it up; then, in the ./debian/rules that you will have, add in a get-orig-source rule to grab a new/current version. This will allow for a reviewer to confirm there are no other changes to the upstream source | 19:51 |
| RoAkSoAx | hggdh, ok thanks :) | 19:52 |
| hggdh | in the get-orig-source, you download the source from upstream, remove the ./debian directory, and tarball it | 19:52 |
| RoAkSoAx | ok cool :) | 19:54 |
| ScottK | RoAkSoAx: Repacking is not required unless you need to remove a file completely in their debian dir. It's up to you if you want to fix their packaging or do your own. | 19:58 |
| RoAkSoAx | ScottK, ok. I guess doing my own packaging will be better then. Thanks :) | 20:01 |

| Arimal | can anyone help me out with using dpkg-scanpackages to make a repository? for some reason it is not printing anything into the Packages file | 23:48 |
| Arimal | I'm trying to make a local repository | 23:48 |
| Arimal | I've read the man page and I believe I have everything set right, but for some reason it isn't outputting anything | 23:49 |
| azeem | Arimal: what command are you running? | 23:49 |
| Arimal | find . -name "*.deb" > override | 23:50 |
| Arimal | then | 23:50 |
| Arimal | dpkg-scanpackages -m /media/disk/Loot/Debs/dists/hardy/main/binary-i386 override > Packages | 23:50 |
| Arimal | then | 23:50 |
| Arimal | cat Packages | gzip -c > Packages.gz | 23:50 |
| azeem | AFAIK, dpkg-scanpackages expects a path where to look for .debs | 23:51 |
| azeem | and the current directory is not default | 23:51 |
| Arimal | I've tried messing with the path in the dpkg-scanpackages | 23:51 |
| Arimal | I tried just a . | 23:51 |
| Arimal | while in that directory | 23:51 |
| azeem | no idea then, sorry | 23:51 |
| Arimal | it gives some error info saying there are duplicates and everything, so it is finding the packages, but for some reason it's just not outputting | 23:52 |
| azeem | maybe Packages is read-only or something? | 23:53 |
| Arimal | thanks for trying azeem | 23:53 |
| Arimal | I deleted it before starting... so it's generated new each time through | 23:53 |
| Arimal | I've been wracking my brain over this because this script used to work fine | 23:53 |
| * ajmitch just has something like: | 23:54 | |
| ajmitch | dpkg-scanpackages . -a amd64 /dev/null | 23:54 |
| ajmitch | so an empty override file, and everything below the current directory | 23:55 |
| Arimal | so /dev/null is the override? | 23:55 |
| Arimal | hmmm | 23:55 |
| Arimal | brb | 23:55 |
| Arimal | will try it | 23:55 |
| ajmitch | or you could try something like reprepro | 23:55 |
| Arimal | hmmm.... still no output but i did get an error this time... apparently it doesn't like the froswire deb ;) trying again | 23:58 |
