Keybuksadmac2: I was thinking "We do what we must because we can" :-)11:28
Keybukmbiebl: yeah, the script was literally just a hack - if you've got a better version please do open an LP bug and I'll replace it11:29
Keybukmbiebl: obviously the LP bug should be against the Ubuntu package ;)11:29
ionkeybuk: So...? :-)11:30
Keybuksadmac2: I haven't received the state transfer patch from you, I don't think - let me check11:30
Keybukion: please do fix any errors you see in the manpages, or even rewrite bits if you like ;)  I literally just wrote them all in a morning after getting carried away editing RH's events(5) page11:30
Keybukion: they're just wrapped in emacs at 80 columns I think - but obviously the wrapping goes awry when you edit the pages afterwards11:31
ionWell, i’d use vim’s gq command to rewrap after any changes.11:31
Keybukthat gets manpages wrong though, right?11:32
Keybukit tries to move the .B bits back onto the same line11:32
ionsome text, blah blah (cursor here)11:32
ionmore text, foobar11:33
ion.B baz11:33
ion2gqgq rewraps the two lines, not touching the .B line. When there are so many lines it’s not easy to count them with a single skim, V switches to visual mode (”paint lines” mode), j extends the selected area downwards and gq finally rewraps it.11:34
* Keybuk remembers why he uses emacs ;)11:34
ion2gqq even11:34
ionEmacs has built-in functionality to rewrap man pages properly?11:35
KeybukC-A-\11:35
ionNeat11:35
Keybukwell, rewrap anything really11:35
KeybukI'd still rather use anjuta though11:35
ionBut it didn’t seem to wrap the Upstart manpages consistently.11:35
Keybukthat's because I didn't use it :)11:37
KeybukI just typed stuff11:37
Keybukit wrapped as I went11:38
Keybukthen I went back and editing things I typed11:38
Keybukbut I didn't rewrap after11:38
KeybukI probably sometimes pressed enter manually to wrap too ;)11:38
ionvim seems to support letting an external program or a vimscript function handle gq for certain filetypes. I wonder if one of the text formatters available from apt support manpages?11:42
Keybukno idea11:42
Keybuksadmac2: ah, I do - you added an "also affects 0.3" which sent it to the other mailbox11:48
* Keybuk fixes his mailer confi11:48
ionHa! One can tell par 'P=.' and it “protects” lines starting with a dot. I’ll see if par handles manpages nicely otherwise.11:55
Keybukion: the trick though is keeping them formatted ;)12:07
Keybukmbiebl: I fixed the test_control failure ;)12:54
Keybukit was a brain failure12:54
Keybuknow I have a strange test case failure14:41
Keybukthat only seems to affect my laptop14:41
* Keybuk wonders whether Upstart's test suite has uncovered a bug in the new fanotify() kernel stuff14:41
Keybukwell, the kernel update solves the other inotify bug I'd noticed16:51
Keybukbut not this one16:51
Keybukok iz confirmed23:00
Keybukthe test_conf failure is a kernel bug ;)23:00
ionDoes 0.6 already use the magic to follow forks?23:23
Keybukno, it just uses ptrace23:31
ionOk23:31
Keybukthough since I binned the session leader crap, that actually appears to work23:33
Keybukwell23:34
Keybukkinda23:34
ionHave you already started working on the mount daemon? I wonder if i’d manage to contribute anything some day... An often-updated repository with a TODO list would be nice. :-)23:36
Keybukno, not yet23:36
KeybukI'll try and do that ;)23:36
Keybukhmm, processes get kinda stuck in ptrace23:38
