| ogra | urgh, wha there a decision in debian to use /srv by default across the board ? | 07:30 | 
| ogra | *was | 07:30 | 
| TheMuso | ogra: For what? | 07:30 | 
| ogra | well, tftpd-hpa defaults to it for tftp serving with the latest release | 07:31 | 
| ogra | i was wondering if there is a general change | 07:31 | 
| ogra | which would surprise me | 07:31 | 
| TheMuso | ah ok | 07:32 | 
| liw | that sounds like an excellent question for #debian-devel :) | 07:32 | 
| ogra | gah, bug 84615 | 07:32 | 
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 84615 in tftp-hpa "Uses /var/lib/tftpboot instead of /srv/tftp" [Wishlist,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/84615 | 07:32 | 
| pitti | Good morning | 07:34 | 
| ogra | the evil thing in tftpd-hpa is that they changed *both* defaults, it runs standalone now *and* not from inetd anymore ... | 07:34 | 
| ogra | given that it doesnt carry a config file but was configured in inetd.conf thats pretty bad | 07:35 | 
| StevenK | ogra: /srv == win | 07:40 | 
| ogra | no | 07:40 | 
| ogra | StevenK, so apache should use /srv/www now ? | 07:41 | 
| liw | I prefer /srv/http, but I also think it's a local admin decision; http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html#SRVDATAFORSERVICESPROVIDEDBYSYSTEM | 07:41 | 
| StevenK | ogra: Well, I actually configure Apache to pull from directories underneath /srv | 07:42 | 
| * ogra wonders what all the admins out there would say if it suddenly did, breaking all the setups that use the default config :P | 07:42 | |
| StevenK | But yes, what liw said. It's a local admin decision. | 07:42 | 
| ogra | right | 07:42 | 
| ogra | and the directory should stay clear from defults | 07:42 | 
| ogra | *defaults | 07:42 | 
| StevenK | ogra: I'm unsure about if the default should be somewhere under /var, or what it currently has, under /srv | 07:43 | 
| ogra | var is variable system data, isnt it ? | 07:44 | 
| liw | "However /srv should always exist on FHS compliant systems and should be used as the default location for such data." | 07:45 | 
| StevenK | ogra: And /srv is data that is served by the system, so ... | 07:45 | 
| ogra | srv is a nice concept to give admins more freedom, but essentially i think system default setups shuld stay out of it | 07:45 | 
| liw | the FHS is clear that /srv should be the default location | 07:45 | 
| ogra | "The methodology used to name subdirectories of /srv is unspecified as there is currently no consensus on how this should be done." | 07:46 | 
| * ogra doesnt find that clear or even thought to the end | 07:46 | |
| liw | I'm sure the FHS committee would accept reasonable arguments for change | 07:47 | 
| ogra | an you think i would move people to a consensus ? | 07:47 | 
| liw | certainly | 07:47 | 
| ogra | looks to me like it was argued on before and there simply was no agreement | 07:47 | 
| liw | if nothing else, you could push them all to dislike you and so have a consensus to vote against you? :) | 07:48 | 
| StevenK | Hah | 07:48 | 
| ogra | which reads to me like "no real *standard* could be defined" | 07:48 | 
| liw | I haven't studied the history /srv, but I assume this happened the way fhs and similar standards are developed | 07:49 | 
| ogra | well, to me a standard means there is "agreement how we all do it" ... | 07:49 | 
| liw | i.e., people felt that /var was a bad location for things like http web roots (read: not easily shareable between hosts) and proposed a change | 07:49 | 
| liw | so as a first step, /srv was invented and then the committee will wait a few years to see if it gets popular and if so, how it gets used | 07:50 | 
| liw | before they make further changes | 07:50 | 
| ogra | right, i dont say thats bad ... as long as there is a clear definition how /srv has to look like | 07:50 | 
| ogra | else you end up with per distro chaos ... that defeats the purpose of easy portability | 07:50 | 
| ogra | and given that there is no such definition yet it should not be used for default setups imho | 07:51 | 
| liw | *shrug* the standard won't (and shouldn't) encode a structure before it has been tried in practice | 07:52 | 
| ogra | heh, catch 22 ? | 07:52 | 
| liw | not really, as long as people don't insist the FHS tell them in detail the location of every file and distros have a little bit of courage to try new things occasionally :) | 07:53 | 
| ogra | i dont want to be told about files in detail ... but a rough definition about the substructure would be helpful | 07:53 | 
| liw | I'm sure you'll find it in a future version of the fhs | 07:54 | 
| liw | meanwhile, you can help decide what is the best substructure :) | 07:54 | 
| ogra | well, the by protocol approach is fine with me ... | 07:55 | 
| ogra | in my specific case i'm just running into a prob with tftpd-hpa which changes two setups at the same time | 07:55 | 
| ogra | it ignored the former configuration (inetd.conf) and at the same time switches its default path | 07:56 | 
| liw | that'd probably be a bug in that package | 07:56 | 
| ogra | *ignores | 07:56 |

| Hobbsee | pitti: ah yes, i see that too | 08:34 | 
| pitti | I have an internal LVDS (docked, closed, ignored) and an external TFT | 08:34 |

| Hobbsee | (when mirroring the display) | 08:34 | 
| Hobbsee | yep | 08:34 | 
| Hobbsee | turning off mirror mode lets you select the higher resolutions, though | 08:35 | 
| pitti | sure, in my X session I can do the right thign (disable LVDS, use native resolution on DVI) | 08:35 |

| directhex | Hobbsee, depends on how your graphics driver decides to present them | 09:13 | 
| directhex | Hobbsee, at work i have a 1600x1200 secondary and 1920x1200 primary. gdm displays only on the primary | 09:13 |

| * ogra points \sh to http://vdict.com/ubiquity,7,0,0.html | 09:41 | |
| ogra | "omnipresent" :) | 09:42 | 
| \sh | ogra: and what does it have to do with a) licensing a software and b) signing another document which grants the same rights? (minus this very strange patent paragraph) | 09:43 | 
| ogra | it means that you agree this license applies *across the board* | 09:43 | 
| ogra | i would say | 09:43 | 
| ogra | (some native speaker may correct me) | 09:44 | 
| ogra | s/license/agreement/ | 09:45 | 
| evand | \sh: yes, ubiquity the live CD installer. It's a requirement per http://www.canonical.com/contributors . My understanding of the reasons we require people to sign it are the two I outlined in that email. I can put you in touch with a lawyer who can better elaborate on the details if you don't find my explanation sufficient. | 09:46 | 
| ogra | oh | 09:47 | 
| * ogra didnt know we had that | 09:47 | |
| ogra | (for ubiquity) | 09:47 | 
| \sh | evand: so what you are saying is: if someone is using the software, which I contributed to, not according to the GPL2 license, you will hunt them down like gplviolations? | 09:48 |

| cjwatson | \sh: the FSF does exactly the same thing for contributions to GNU projects, FWIW | 10:01 | 
| directhex | copyright assignment? | 10:06 | 
| azeem | cjwatson: I believe the FSF explicitely says it will only license the assigned copyright under FLOSS licenses/GPL | 10:09 | 
| cjwatson | well, yes, that's true. I meant copyright assignment in general | 10:09 | 
| cjwatson | directhex: only for a few projects that we started, not for the whole of Ubuntu or anything, don't worry | 10:10 | 
| azeem | (just mentioning, because you said "exactly the same thing" | 10:10 | 
| azeem | ) | 10:10 | 
| \sh | cjwatson: so, I could give my copyrights to another entity (which is the FSF), why should I do that? | 10:10 | 
| directhex | i believe a common alternative is to allow non-assignment as long as contributions are MIT/X11 | 10:11 | 
| cjwatson | the usual reason for copyright assignment is that it means that in case of violation it's actually possible to pursue violators; in many jurisdictions one cannot bring a case unless one has standing | 10:11 | 
| directhex | \sh, essentially because it makes it easier for them to fight legal battles, as they cal claim to be the infringed party in disputes. | 10:11 | 
| directhex | \sh, or you can have severe problems when you DON'T, e.g. parts of scummvm are unrelicensable as their author died | 10:12 | 
| directhex | \sh, as it happens, your reasoning is why the Go-OO patchset for OpenOffice.org exists | 10:12 | 
| \sh | directhex: well, for that I have a last will where I can state what will happen to my copyrights, software or IP... | 10:14 | 
| directhex | can, or do? | 10:15 | 
| cjwatson | mm. I've actually had that problem myself in the past, I didn't really want to contact a developer's widow and say "excuse me, exactly what pedantic things can I do with your late husband's code" | 10:16 | 
| \sh | directhex: I have ... I just need to add things every year I survived | 10:16 | 
| cjwatson | seems ... tasteless somehow | 10:16 | 
| directhex | cjwatson, very. but what's the alternative? | 10:16 | 
| \sh | cjwatson: actually it's that situation companies do with people taking over someones property | 10:17 | 
| directhex | cjwatson, the scummvm case is significant as it prevented proper resolution of a gpl violation problem | 10:17 | 
| cjwatson | fortunately in the case at hand it basically worked out that I didn't need to worry about it for various reasons | 10:18 | 
| directhex | afaik apache requires assignment too | 10:18 | 
| directhex | a housemate received legal paperwork from the foundation when we were undergrads | 10:18 | 
| \sh | actually most of the software which are in our archives and we contributed some self-made patches needs such an assignment then | 10:18 | 
| cjwatson | depends where the patches go, but you'll certainly find that many upstream contributions require assignments, yes | 10:19 | 
| * cjwatson is in the process of getting assignments sorted out for findutils, parted, grub2, and something else I've forgotten | 10:19 | |
| directhex | i think there's some generally held legal minimum patchiness level required to say "this patch counts as a proper contribution and needs proper licensing" | 10:20 | 
| directhex | i'm pretty sure i'm not in MythTV's AUTHORS file | 10:20 | 
| cjwatson | it's subjective, I have seen such things stated but never a clear legal opinion on it | 10:20 | 
| directhex | sounds like something waiting for case law | 10:21 | 
| james_w | I've seen people say "this isn't a patch, but if you go to foo.c and change the comparison on line 95 this bug will go away. Can I avoid signing a copyright assignment please?" | 10:21 | 
| directhex | technically that statement is true | 10:23 | 
| liw | the threshold for what is copyrightable (and what is too trivial to be copyrightable) varies betwen jurisdictions, and sometimes within them too | 10:24 | 
| liw | on the whole, copyright law is screwed up all over the world | 10:24 | 
| \sh | well, if those assignments has a paragraph like: "A company/organization which violates the authors/contributors license will be sued by Us [where "Us" is someone else company/organization] to enforce the given license of the author/contributor. Any monetary solution to this charge will be shared among the Law Company, the author of the software and all contributors" this would make sense to me (not that I want any blood money) | 10:25 |

| tkamppeter | directhex, can you tell me where I can find Kyocera's download? | 12:43 |

| cjwatson | I thought that was the point of blacklisting all that stuff | 12:49 | 
| StevenK | I'm just about to check that | 12:49 | 
| Laney | I think we should go ahead with the transition anyway | 12:49 | 
| cjwatson | i.e. I thought there were source changes in there that relied on the new ocaml | 12:49 | 
| Laney | (OCaml) | 12:49 | 
| StevenK | cjwatson: My other thought was doing -3~ubuntu1 which is -3, without the new ocaml | 12:50 | 
| ogra | god, thses gpm popups are annoying | 12:50 | 
| ogra | *these | 12:50 | 
| Laney | it doesn't seem so bad, and there's a nice tool for helping with it | 12:50 | 
| liw | ogra, hm? | 12:50 | 
| ogra | liw, i get "your battery is fully charged" or "... discharging" as popunders since some days | 12:51 | 
| liw | ogra, ugh | 12:51 | 
| ogra | *huge* popunders with three buttons in a row | 12:51 | 
| StevenK | Well, I wonder if Debian has completed the transition. | 12:52 | 
| StevenK | It's been a month, after all. | 12:52 | 
| StevenK | If they have, compiling a list of stuff to sync should be fairly simple. | 12:52 | 
| tkamppeter | directhex: The PPDs are under MIT license, so I can update OpenPrinting ... | 12:53 | 
| directhex | tkamppeter, i wouldn't have bugged you if they weren't Free :po | 12:54 | 
| directhex | :p | 12:54 | 
| tkamppeter | directhex, with OpenPrinting updated, Ubuntu Jaunty and higher would simply directly get them from OpenPrinting. | 12:55 | 
| Laney | StevenK: They have, apart from one sourc epackage (see mail to u-d-d) | 12:55 | 
| tkamppeter | directhex, about free licenses of PPDs, you can inform me about all PPDs offered for use with Linux, independent whether they are free or not, as in some cases I can contact the manufacturer. | 12:56 | 
| StevenK | Laney: Ah, but it seems like they want to keep 3.11.0 in Karmic, and have 3.11.1 in Karmic+1 | 12:56 | 
| StevenK | Which makes me go argh | 12:56 | 
| directhex | tkamppeter, i don't generally look at this stuff, unless an engineer appears out of nowhere to take my laserjet away & put an unsupported-in-jaunty kyocera 1118 in its place | 12:57 | 
| Laney | well he asked if we should do the transition, and I said that I think we probably could and should | 12:57 | 
| StevenK | I agree that we should, it makes headaches like the one I just found go away | 12:58 | 
| tkamppeter | If the PPDs are redistributable but not free software (only vernatim redistribution) I can at least put them up on OpenPrinting, in the foomatic-db-nonfree package, and that is enough for Ubuntu auto-downloading the PPDs. If they are free, they get into foomatic-db and so also into Ubuntu. | 12:58 | 
| Laney | StevenK: would be good if you could say as much in that thread then | 12:58 | 
| directhex | tkamppeter, the only other printers i have access to generally are a Brother (so i get that frustrating ERROR problem on most print jobs) and a Toshiba (which works fine) | 12:58 | 
| directhex | tkamppeter, i did get to tell a Canon salesperson they were smoking crack once, though, thanks to their laughable loonicks support | 12:59 |

| Ampelbein | no worries... thank you for the info. | 15:45 | 
| lool | kirkland: Ack I heard that during the release meeting | 15:48 | 
| lool | kirkland: (ogra was rolling his own qemu 0.10 + patches to get some better ARM EABI support and was interested in having that in ubuntu which is why I pointed him at you) | 15:49 | 
| lool | I'm using tip + patches | 15:49 | 
| kirkland | lool: for tip, are you aware of https://edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-virt/+archive/virt-daily-upstream ? | 15:50 | 
| ogra | well, there is more than the patches ... but if our qemu-arm could support eabi that would be a major step forward | 15:50 | 
| ogra | i would still like to have a package i can easily install that enables binfmt | 15:50 | 
| ogra | and disables it on package removal respectively | 15:51 | 
| kirkland | ogra: lool: any reason why these patches aren't upstream in qemu? we have a friendly qemu maintainer, we sponsored him to barcelona uds | 15:52 | 
| ogra | kirkland, the patches are apparently | 15:53 | 
| ogra | just not in our package | 15:53 | 
| kirkland | ogra: oh, great | 15:53 | 
| kirkland | ogra: then this will sort itself out very shortly | 15:53 | 
| kirkland | ogra: in the mean time, see: https://edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-virt/+archive/virt-daily-upstream | 15:53 | 
| kirkland | ogra: 0.11.50 is building there | 15:53 | 
| ogra | nice | 15:54 | 
| ogra | i'll try it out soon | 15:54 | 
| andresmujica | do we have an ubuntu java or eclipse channel? | 15:57 | 
| ogra | lool, kirkland, though for the chroot bits i would still need a statically build binary | 15:58 | 
| ogra | just strikes me ... | 15:58 | 
| lool | kirkland: I am aware of the PPA; thanks; I build tip by hand because I apply some non-mergeable patches on top of qemu | 15:58 | 
| ogra | *built | 15:58 | 
| ogra | kirkland, do you think it would be possible to roll a qemu-arm-static into our package ? | 15:59 | 
| kirkland | lool: gotcha, good to know | 16:00 | 
| kirkland | ogra: hrm, i don't see why not ... do you have a diff that does this? | 16:00 | 
| kirkland | ogra: curious, just wondering... why do you need a static build of that binary? | 16:01 | 
| ogra | no, my package is totally badly built with its own copy of the qemu source and the patch inline | 16:01 | 
| lool | ScottK: Cool, so these perl libs should soon be installable? | 16:01 | 
| ogra | kirkland, what i do is: apply the eabi patches, build it statically, enable the interpreter in binfmt-support to match the magic of any armel binaries ... then i roll an armel chroot ... to exec armel binaries *inside* that chroot i need the x86 qemu ... | 16:02 | 
| ogra | kirkland, which indeed wouldnt find its libs *in* the chroot | 16:03 | 
| kirkland | ogra: right | 16:03 | 
| ogra | with the static version i can just chroot into my bootstrapped root and move on | 16:03 | 
| ScottK | lool: Right. Thanks for the reminder (ugh). No, it was another issue. | 16:04 | 
| ogra | its extremely convenient | 16:04 | 
| * ScottK looks into it. | 16:04 | |
| lool | Eh :) | 16:04 |

| kirkland | ogra: right, let me think on this some | 16:08 | 
| kirkland | ogra: i'll talk to upstream too | 16:08 |

| kirkland | ogra: i might be able to add a binary package to the source package | 16:09 | 
| kirkland | ogra: qemu-arm-static or something | 16:09 | 
| kirkland | ogra: or qemu-static | 16:09 | 
| kirkland | ogra: and just publish that one to universe? | 16:09 |

| cjwatson | RainCT: I'm sure it's not the point, but your data is perplexing - you seem to be using the primary UID on the signing key for "Last Uploader", rather than, say, Changed-By if it matches one of the UIDs on the key ... | 17:28 | 
| RainCT | cjwatson: Seems like it's just running gpg and looking at the "Good signature from X" line. But hey, that's not my code! :) | 17:30 | 
| Keybuk | cjwatson: patches welcome | 17:30 | 
| Keybuk | cjwatson: in fact, I think you may have _written_ this patch in the first place ;-) | 17:31 | 
| cjwatson | Keybuk: oh, I didn't think current MoM acted this way ... | 17:31 | 
| cjwatson | I don't remember doing so? but that doesn't mean a whole lot | 17:32 | 
| RainCT | Keybuk: The (new design) code is up on lp:~rainct/merge-o-matic/redesign for your merging pleasure :) | 17:32 | 
| Keybuk | Jo Shields <directhex@ubuntu.com> | 17:33 | 
| Keybuk | Uploader: Colin Watson <cjwatson@flatline.org.uk> | 17:33 | 
| Keybuk | (e.g. from current MoM output) | 17:33 | 
| cjwatson | definitely wasn't me who wrote that patch, I don't recognise that code at all | 17:34 | 
| Keybuk | RainCT: though that's a good point | 17:35 | 
| Keybuk | RainCT: your code drops the distinction | 17:35 | 
| cjwatson | anyway, current MoM doesn't act this way because for the upload in question changer == uploader | 17:35 | 
| Keybuk | current MoM shows both the Changed-By *and* Uploader when different | 17:35 | 
| Keybuk | yours only shows the Uploader | 17:36 | 
| Keybuk | (who is generally a sponsor, not the person who made the change) | 17:36 |

| Keybuk | RainCT: looks like you haven't touched manual-status.py yet? Would be good to have that in the same form | 17:36 | 
| RainCT | Keybuk: Oops, right. My test with a single package isn't that helpful :) | 17:36 |

| rtg_ | slangasek, do you have a moment to review my proposed addition of rfkill to wireless-tools ? http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~rtg/wireless-tools.diff | 20:52 | 
| slangasek | rtg_: <squint> the diff looks fine, but why in the world is this now being done via a control device instead of via /sys? | 20:58 | 
| slangasek | that really seems like a step backwards | 20:59 | 
| rtg_ | slangasek, it can be done both ways, but I guess /dev/rfkill is the preferred method for setting/retrieving state for all wireless devices. | 21:00 | 
| slangasek | no, it can't be done both ways :) | 21:00 | 
| slangasek | not in 2.6.31 - someone broke the /sys interface | 21:00 | 
| rtg_ | I thought it just moved | 21:00 | 
| slangasek | well, they broke two things - 1) there's no longer a link to the rfkill interface from the /sys/class/net tree, 2) trying to toggle any rfkill interfaces through sys fails with "Operation not permitted" | 21:01 | 
| nxvl | james_w: is there something in bazaar like svn debcommit? | 21:03 | 
| rtg_ | slangasek, for the acpi-support package the rfkill application should be sufficient for controlling rfkill state. do you want me to pursue what is wrong with the sysfs interface? | 21:03 | 
| james_w | nxvl: what does that do? | 21:04 | 
| rtg_ | instead | 21:04 | 
| nxvl | james_w: commits the changes and generates the comment from the changelog | 21:04 | 
| james_w | debcommit doesn't do what you want? | 21:04 | 
| * nxvl tries | 21:04 | |
| nxvl | james_w: yes it does | 21:05 | 
| * nxvl HUGS james_w | 21:05 | |
| slangasek | rtg_: well, I'm getting a little sick of the interface moving every single release, and the acpi-support compatibility code becoming increasingly baroque :/ | 21:05 | 
| slangasek | rtg_: I thought the previous /sys interface was a very sensible one, and it seems like a bug to me that it's changed again | 21:06 | 
| rtg_ | slangasek, as well that may be, there is little I can do about it. | 21:07 | 
| slangasek | rtg_: who's working on this stuff upstream? maybe I can rant at them directly :) | 21:07 | 
| slangasek | (anyway, surely it /is/ a bug that you can't change the state via /sys at all anymore?) | 21:07 | 
| rtg_ | slangasek, Johannes Burg is the guy that rewrote rfkill. I guess he'd be the best place to start. Perhaps on the linux-wireless@vger.kernel.org list. | 21:08 |

| cjwatson | bannaN: right, it's complicated (and we don't know either, because it depends so much on your interests and experience), which is why I gave you a page full of links that you can go and read :-) | 21:29 | 
| === porthose1 is now known as porthose | ||
| bannaN | cjwatson: hehe, yeah, what i had in mind was maybe bugfixing, testing or something like that, dont know whats possible in the begining, and how tasks are asigned | 21:32 | 
| cjwatson | bannaN: with some exceptions (for instance, people employed to work on Ubuntu often have things assigned to them), people generally take things for themselves rather than waiting to be asked | 21:36 | 
| cjwatson | the process for fixing bugs is to find some bugs you think are interesting and send patches! :-) And http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SponsorshipProcess if you want to get those patches reviewed in a timely fashion | 21:36 | 
| BUGabundo | hey dear devs | 22:01 | 
| BUGabundo | pitti: were you who broke gtk on karmic with that patch for gfvs? | 22:01 | 
| seb128_ | BUGabundo, gtk and gvfs are really different things | 22:04 | 
| BUGabundo | yeah I know | 22:04 | 
| BUGabundo | just gluing some pieces | 22:04 | 
| BUGabundo | haven't got my listchanges to work yet, after format | 22:04 | 
| seb128_ | BUGabundo, not really gluing no, gvfs has no user inferface and don't use gtk | 22:04 | 
| BUGabundo | so knolage may be incomplete :) | 22:04 | 
| seb128_ | BUGabundo, and gtk doesn't use gvfs either | 22:04 | 
| seb128_ | BUGabundo, rather than trying to guess you should better describe your issue | 22:05 | 
| BUGabundo | seb128_: not a single icon anywhere on my system | 22:05 | 
| BUGabundo | err | 22:05 | 
| BUGabundo | not _my_. any karmic, updated | 22:05 | 
| seb128_ | ? | 22:06 | 
| BUGabundo | yofel: what was the package you mentioned? | 22:06 | 
| yofel | seb128_: .xsession-errors tells us that it can't recognize the picture format | 22:06 | 
| yofel | of the icon theme | 22:06 | 
| seb128_ | BUGabundo, "any", works for me | 22:06 | 
| BUGabundo | seb128_: yes, really. no app icons, not icons on pidgin, on firefox, nothing | 22:06 | 
| BUGabundo | just boxes with red cross | 22:06 | 
| yofel | seb128_: like for example: ** (gnome-terminal:13296): CRITICAL **: failed to load icon 'lpi-translate': Format der Bilddatei unbekannt | 22:06 | 
| seb128_ | having english errors would be a good start | 22:07 | 
| yofel | it's something along of: unknown picture format | 22:07 | 
| BUGabundo | let me pastebin mine | 22:07 | 
| BUGabundo | its in english | 22:08 | 
| BUGabundo | $ pastebinit .xsession-errors | 22:08 |

| seb128_ | BUGabundo, did you open a bug using apport? | 22:09 | 
| BUGabundo | not yet | 22:09 | 
| BUGabundo | I just came online | 22:09 | 
| BUGabundo | and yofel confimed it, so I though I would ask around | 22:10 | 
| seb128_ | BUGabundo, what architecture do you use? | 22:10 | 
| BUGabundo | before putting it on LP with no package | 22:10 | 
| BUGabundo | x64 | 22:10 | 
| seb128_ | yofel, you? | 22:10 | 
| yofel | seb128_: yes, updated my system a few minutes before BUGabundo came and have the same issue | 22:11 | 
| BUGabundo | hey kenvandine | 22:11 | 
| seb128_ | yofel, the question was "what arch do you use"? | 22:11 | 
| yofel | oh, sry - amd64 | 22:11 | 
| BUGabundo | ahah | 22:11 | 
| seb128_ | k, could be amd64 specific | 22:12 | 
| giles | yofel: I tuned in | 22:12 | 
| BUGabundo | seb128_: package so I can file it ? | 22:12 | 
| BUGabundo | humm notify OSD is gone too LOL | 22:12 | 
| seb128_ | BUGabundo, gtk+2.0 | 22:12 | 
| yofel | giles: what's your cpu-arch? x86 or x64? | 22:12 | 
| BUGabundo | at least Volume one | 22:12 | 
| BUGabundo | seb128_: Package gtk+2.0 does not exist | 22:13 | 
| Ampelbein | BUGabundo: ? https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk+2.0 | 22:13 | 
| seb128_ | libgtk2.0-0 if you want a binary package rather | 22:13 | 
| giles | yofel: x64 | 22:13 | 
| BUGabundo | Ampelbein: tell that to my apport :) | 22:13 |

| cody-somerville | slangasek, There was but it seems to be closed, trying to find it | 22:32 | 
| * BUGabundo slaps seb128 connection | 22:33 | |
| seb128 | BUGabundo, what is required is somebody having access to an amd64 box and a clue about autotools and libtool to debug | 22:33 | 
| BUGabundo | I have the 1st | 22:34 | 
| BUGabundo | not the 2nd | 22:34 | 
| BUGabundo | let me fetch someone from +1 | 22:34 | 
| giles | seb128: need debug info from somebody on amd64? | 22:34 | 
| seb128 | giles, not really, rather need somebody able to debug the issue | 22:34 | 
| giles | which issue? | 22:35 | 
| seb128 | giles, ie giving me informations will not likely lead somewhere, I've no real clue about the issue seems to be something due to libtool | 22:35 |

| seb128 | pitti, hey | 22:50 |

| BUGabundo | hey pitti | 22:51 | 
| * BUGabundo is always finding HIGH bugs for seb128 :) | 22:51 | |
| seb128 | pitti, just to let you know if you look at milestoned issues this week | 22:51 | 
| pitti | seb128: oh, thanks; indeed, I'm the alpha-3 RM this week, so I have to care :) | 22:51 | 
| cody-somerville | pitti, Sorry, I thought you were just going to make the changes. I'd be happy to update my branch for you. | 22:51 | 
| seb128 | BUGabundo, you seem to enjoy when users are in trouble | 22:51 | 
| pitti | cody-somerville: I don't really know the appropriate xubuntu alternatives, and you said it also needs some patches for not hardcoding metacity, etc.? | 22:52 | 
| cody-somerville | pitti, Sounds good to me. I'll do that this evening. | 22:52 | 
| pitti | seb128: hm, I'm on amd64, and my icons are just fine | 22:52 | 
| pitti | didn't update to new gtk yet, though | 22:52 | 
| pitti | the most annoying thing is gnome-keyring ssh being broken (not exporting the env var) | 22:53 | 
| seb128 | pitti, well it's clear from the build log that the png loader didn't build on amd64 | 22:53 | 
| pitti | but just like so many of those, I guess it's a gdm bug again :/ | 22:53 | 
| seb128 | pitti, didn't notice that there and gnome-keyring didn't change for some weeks | 22:53 | 
| BUGabundo | seb128: no pleasure here. but I'm an alpha tester, so I've been finding many bugs over the years, helping to put them on BTSs, triaging, alerting users... the usual | 22:54 | 
| pitti | seb128: yeah, SSH_AUTH_SOCK=/tmp/keyring-tYQTmS/socket.ssh ssh ... works | 22:54 | 
| pitti | seb128: bit too late right now, but I'll give a go at that amd64 thing tomorrow morning | 22:54 | 
| seb128 | pitti, the environment export is a dbus thing I think | 22:54 | 
| * pitti dist-upgrade | 22:54 | |
| seb128 | pitti, thanks, it's not the end of the world it's only icons | 22:54 | 
| pitti | ah, there comes a new gtk | 22:55 | 
| seb128 | pitti, I just hate autotools and I've no amd64 box to look at what's going on | 22:55 | 
| seb128 | pitti, and I don't know enough about libtool to guess what is wrong without logs and access to a build | 22:55 | 
| seb128 | could be a race and work on next build, dunno | 22:55 | 
| slangasek | directhex: monodevelop-boo appears to be in need of a fakesync, due to mismatched .orig.tar.gz md5sum | 22:56 | 
| directhex | slangasek, is it? i believe the fakesync part, but i don't remember doing anything to break it recently | 22:57 | 
| BUGabundo | ok my work here is done. thanks | 22:59 | 
| * pitti cd /bed, good night | 22:59 | |
| BUGabundo | bye pitti | 22:59 | 
| yofel | seb128: the png loader built fine when just running ./configure && make - debuild and pbuilder are still running | 23:03 | 
| seb128 | yofel, ok thanks | 23:04 | 
| directhex | of course, i apparently broke sid, so what do _I_ know? | 23:09 | 
| directhex | oh, there's the problem, monodevelop-boo is missing from our tracker | 23:10 | 
| directhex | wgrant, poke poke | 23:10 | 
| directhex | mmm, still hasn't had a new upload since april | 23:11 | 
| directhex | slangasek, was your comment simply regarding the funny version number? if so, a fakesync is fine, but i'm not sure what it would achieve given the packages are identical anyway | 23:12 | 
| wgrant | directhex: Hi. | 23:14 | 
| slangasek | directhex: no, the packages aren't identical, there's a build-dep on libgtksourceview2.0-cil | 23:14 | 
| directhex | wgrant, can you manually add packages to an MDT page? | 23:15 | 
| wgrant | directhex: I can. | 23:15 | 
| directhex | slangasek, really? how silly | 23:15 | 
| wgrant | directhex: But let's see if there's a more general way to get that one too... | 23:15 | 
| directhex | wgrant, well, most of monodevelop* is with meebey as sole maintainer, not group maintained (according to control, anyway - not in reality) | 23:16 | 
| wgrant | directhex: So, we only grab packages with one of the three mono maintainers right now. | 23:16 | 
| directhex | slangasek, so a fakesync to universe just involves uploading a signed source package using our orig and their diff, yes? | 23:16 | 
| wgrant | I guess I'll just add this explicitly now. | 23:17 | 
| directhex | wgrant, sorry! | 23:17 | 
| slangasek | directhex: yes | 23:17 | 
| directhex | slangasek, okay, give me a minute. my first direct archive upload. eeks! | 23:17 | 
| wgrant | directhex: It be there now. | 23:19 | 
| directhex | tee hee, that makes things slightly more convenient: -- Jo Shields <directhex@apebox.org> Wed, 08 Apr 2009 22:42:33 +0100 | 23:20 | 
| directhex | wgrant, coolness. ta! | 23:20 | 
| directhex | ehm... i take it i need to manually specify an upload distro in dput.cf? it's not bright enough to deal with "unstable -> karmic"? | 23:22 | 
| Laney | it comes set up with ubuntu as default I think | 23:23 | 
| Laney | (you should change this) | 23:23 | 
| Laney | you do need to change the release in the changelog though | 23:23 | 
| wgrant | Isn't one meant to add an XbuildY changelog entry for a fakesync? | 23:24 | 
| seb128 | wgrant, not if the tarball is different | 23:25 | 
| seb128 | wgrant, otherwise it will be tried by the auto-syncer and break | 23:25 | 
| yofel | seb128: the debuild and pbuilder builds built without error too | 23:25 | 
| directhex | Laney, you change the release in changelog for a fakesync? | 23:25 | 
| seb128 | yofel, and the png loader is built? | 23:25 | 
| wgrant | seb128: But it is meant to be autosynced. | 23:26 | 
| yofel | seb128: according to 'dpkg -L libgtk2.0-0' yes | 23:26 | 
| seb128 | wgrant, well, if the orig.tar.gz is different that's not going to happen | 23:26 | 
| wgrant | seb128: It will when Debian uploads a new upstream. | 23:26 | 
| wgrant | And until then the autosyncer will just not do anything. | 23:27 | 
| seb128 | wgrant, right, but we have no way to say to the auto-synced "it's a buildn version but try only next upstream version and not next revision" | 23:27 | 
| Laney | directhex: yes sir, otherwise it will be rejected afaik | 23:27 | 
| seb128 | wgrant, it will break at each run until you sort it | 23:27 | 
| wgrant | seb128: I see. | 23:27 | 
| seb128 | wgrant, 0.8-1build1 will try to autosync 0.8-2 | 23:27 | 
| wgrant | directhex: Soyuz works out the upload series by looking in the .changes, which is generated from the changelog. | 23:27 | 
| directhex | Laney, can you suggest a fakesync changelog to read, to make myself feel better? | 23:28 | 
| seb128 | wgrant, and that will break the sync run on a md5sum mistmatch error | 23:28 | 
| seb128 | directhex, http://people.canonical.com/~pitti/scripts/syncpackage | 23:28 | 
| Laney | directhex: I might have done one for one of the debuggers | 23:28 | 
| seb128 | directhex, in fact that's to do a real sync yourself so ignore it | 23:29 | 
| Laney | but, just change the release to karmic | 23:29 | 
| Laney | 0ubuntu1 the version number | 23:29 | 
| seb128 | directhex, basically get debian source, edit changelog to change unstable to karmic, build, sign, upload | 23:29 | 
| directhex | Laney, that's a 0ubuntu1, not a fakesync, no? | 23:29 | 
| wgrant | seb128: I see a lot of build1 fakesyncs | 23:29 | 
| Laney | seb128: I thought that was what was just being discussed | 23:30 | 
| seb128 | wgrant, right, when the orig.tar.gz doesn't mismatch so next sync will work | 23:30 | 
| Laney | erm | 23:30 | 
| Laney | directhex: * | 23:30 | 
| seb128 | wgrant, that's what we do for rebuilds since we don't have bin-nmu | 23:30 | 
| wgrant | seb128: No, these are for mismatched orig.tar.gzs. | 23:30 | 
| seb128 | wgrant, ie a package is in sync and need a rebuild you use build1 so next sync get it | 23:30 | 
| wgrant | No. | 23:30 | 
| directhex | seb128, good, binNMU is the work of the devil | 23:30 | 
| Laney | I would 0ubuntu1 it to avoid it being autosynced | 23:30 | 
| seb128 | wgrant, well that's wrong and that will create issue during the next autosync run | 23:30 | 
| seb128 | wgrant, give me names ;-) | 23:31 | 
| wgrant | seb128: A few of these were by archive admins... | 23:31 | 
| wgrant | So I somehow think they are doing it the right way. | 23:31 | 
| seb128 | wgrant, can you give me an example? | 23:31 | 
| wgrant | https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/karmic-changes/2009-June/002294.html | 23:31 | 
| directhex | Laney, not an issue, since the package won't need to be changed until the next upstream release | 23:31 | 
| directhex | *cough* | 23:31 | 
| * Laney blinks | 23:31 | |
| seb128 | wgrant, archive admin have access to the autosync filters so they can put things on the ignore list if they want | 23:31 | 
| directhex | meh, close enough for government work. where'd i put that dput... | 23:32 | 
| seb128 | but I think it's easy using an ubuntu<n> versioning | 23:32 | 
| seb128 | wgrant, I will check with pitti tomorrow | 23:32 | 
| cjwatson | I think build1 plus a blacklist entry is fine | 23:33 | 
| seb128 | he probably added the source to the don't sync list | 23:33 | 
| seb128 | cjwatson, well it's extra archive admin work compared to using 0ubuntu1 and asking for a sync later | 23:33 | 
| cjwatson | I'm not sure it actually is extra work; manual syncs are work too | 23:33 | 
| cjwatson | and about the same amount, tiny either way | 23:33 | 
| seb128 | that's maybe because I don't check for packages on the list often | 23:34 | 
| cjwatson | anyway, /me -> sleep -> debconf | 23:34 | 
| seb128 | ie if I'm doing sync those are likely to stay on the "do not sync" list for a while | 23:34 | 
| seb128 | ie, it's not trivial to know when to drop them from the list | 23:34 | 
| seb128 | yofel, ok thanks, I've a uploaded a no change rebuild version | 23:36 | 
| seb128 | let's see how it works | 23:36 | 
| yofel | seb128: after installing my self-build .deb files everythings ok again | 23:37 | 
| seb128 | yofel, ok, good, I've no explanation about the issue | 23:38 | 
| dupondje | i'm trying to compile it here also, checking if it works also | 23:39 | 
| seb128 | I've uploaded a new revision | 23:39 | 
| seb128 | it will have built in 16 minutes or so | 23:39 | 
| seb128 | let's see how that one goes | 23:39 | 
| dupondje | good thing :) | 23:39 | 
| NoelJB | seb128: I understand that you just posted the fix. Thank you for the very prompt response. :-) [sometimes a "thank you" is the only currency in Open Source] | 23:43 | 
| dupondje | its not a real fix tho, its just a reupload to rebuild it | 23:44 |
