| Zhenech | hyperair, building XD | 09:27 |

| Zhenech | well, it wasnt really big :) | 09:41 |
| hyperair | hmm true =\ | 09:41 |
| Zhenech | hyperair, btw, if you have time, it'd be nice to replace the hardcoded 0.17 version of geany with something dynamic (parse the output of geany --version and put it in substvars?) | 09:41 |
| hyperair | oh yeah that would be a good idea. | 09:43 |
| Zhenech | geany --version |awk '{print $2}' | 09:45 |
| Zhenech | that prints the version just fine :) | 09:45 |
| hyperair | or pkg-config --modversion geany | 09:51 |
| Zhenech | or that, right | 09:53 |

| rawang | hi, how to cancel a dh_auto_test? | 10:58 |
| cjwatson | rawang: ctrl-c? | 10:58 |
| cjwatson | or do you mean "how do you make it not run?" | 10:58 |
| rawang | cjwatson, yeah | 11:01 |
| rawang | how do I make it not run :) | 11:01 |
| rawang | cjwatson, I just leave %: to do dh $@ | 11:02 |
| rawang | i mean | 11:02 |
| rawang | %: | 11:02 |
| rawang | dh $@ | 11:02 |
| rawang | use dh7 | 11:02 |
| StevenK | That will certainly run dh_auto_test | 11:03 |
| directhex | yould you just have a blank override_dh_auto_test ? | 11:03 |
| Laney | yes | 11:03 |
| rawang | oh, | 11:03 |
| rawang | override_dh_auto_test with nothing command right? | 11:04 |
| Laney | just put override_dh_auto_test: | 11:04 |
| directhex | then dh voodoo will run whatever you specify instead of dh_auto_test | 11:04 |
| Laney | which is nothing | 11:05 |
| rawang | good idea | 11:05 |
| cjwatson | right, sorry, that was what I was going to suggest but I got distracted :) | 11:07 |
| cjwatson | if you do that, you need to build-depend on debhelper (>= 7.0.50) | 11:07 |
| cjwatson | I also have to ask - why? | 11:08 |
| cjwatson | it should be unusual to have to arrange *not* to run a test suite | 11:08 |
| cjwatson | so it's worth looking into why you feel the need to turn this off, and fixing it | 11:08 |
| rawang | cjwatson, so what is usual way to disable the tests? | 11:09 |
| rawang | cjwatson, the tests need a dbus daemon within build environment, but apparently the temp build environment don't have | 11:10 |
| rawang | Laney, StevenK directhex thanks for you ideas :) | 11:11 |
| james_w | the tests should perhaps create a private dbus session so that they don't intefere with anything on the system | 11:12 |
| james_w | cjwatson: I believe that is the version that adds the override_* handling | 11:12 |
| cjwatson | james_w: yes | 11:13 |
| cjwatson | james_w: what I meant is why does he need to disable the test suite | 11:13 |
| james_w | ah, sorry, misread | 11:13 |
| rawang | cjwatson, yep, so what is usual way to disable the tests? | 11:13 |
| cjwatson | rawang: we already gave you the usual way to disable the tests - but it's also usual, when disabling tests, to consider why | 11:13 |
| rawang | but not using override | 11:13 |
| cjwatson | it's best not to disable tests at all | 11:13 |
| rawang | yes, agreed | 11:14 |
| cjwatson | dh 7 didn't have an elegant way to disable tests before 7.0.50 - you could do it but it was painful | 11:14 |
| cjwatson | dh build --before dh_auto_test # I think | 11:14 |
| cjwatson | and that might confuse something else - so use that only if you're prepared to debug stuff :) | 11:14 |
| rawang | cjwatson, the build is ahead of test already | 11:15 |
| rawang | but seems like override_dh_auto_test won't work | 11:16 |
| directhex | rawang, nah, the point is, the debian/rules "build" rule is handled as "dh build" which runs through a long list of dh_foo commands. you used to specify "dh build --before dh_foo" then "dh build --after dh_foo" to make changes to dh_foo behaviour | 11:16 |
| rawang | directhex, yes, i see, but the problem is i only want to skip the dh_auto_test | 11:18 |
| directhex | rawang, which is what i just described - the old pre-7.0.50 way to do that | 11:18 |
| directhex | rawang, doesn't the build system have a --disable-tests or something? | 11:18 |
| rawang | directhex, and override_dh_auto_test doesn't work, my debhelper is 7.0.17ubuntu4 | 11:19 |
| directhex | well, that explains why it doesn't work | 11:19 |
| directhex | let me find an example of old overrides | 11:20 |
| rawang | directhex, yea, unluckily, the build system don't have a --disable-tests options :( | 11:20 |
| directhex | gnome-subtitles in pkg-cli-apps svn | 11:20 |
| rawang | directhex, sure, thanks ! :) | 11:20 |
| rawang | ok | 11:20 |
| directhex | http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-cli-apps/packages/gnome-subtitles/trunk/debian/rules | 11:21 |
| slytherin | rawang: why not patch the source to not run the tests. | 11:21 |
| rawang | slytherin, you mean patch an option to disable the tests for configure? | 11:22 |
| slytherin | something like that | 11:22 |
| Laney | why's that better than overriding dh_auto_test? | 11:23 |
| rawang | slytherin, ok, nice, but I might need to skip the tests first to see whether it works or not, thanks :) | 11:23 |
| Laney | I suppose you could disable some of the test | 11:23 |
| slytherin | Laney: it will surely work no matter what version of debhelper. :-) | 11:23 |
| Laney | s | 11:23 |
| Laney | heh | 11:23 |
| Laney | a versioned build-dep is no problem... | 11:23 |
| rawang | directhex, there is not a "skip test" from your example | 11:24 |
| rawang | if --disable-tests is specified, the dh will not run dh_auto_test wisely? | 11:25 |
| directhex | rawang, there's an override though - dh_auto_configure is overridden | 11:27 |
| directhex | rawang, try also nant | 11:27 |
| rawang | directhex, sorry, what is nant? :) | 11:28 |
| rawang | directhex, even though I could override configure, but does it help to avoid running dh_auto_test? | 11:28 |
| directhex | rawang, another overridden package | 11:29 |
| rawang | ok | 11:29 |
| directhex | rawang, um..... the point here is you do as cjwatson says, and use "dh build --before_auto_test \n dh_build --after dh_auto_test" as your build: rule | 11:29 |
| Laney | is it? | 11:30 |
| directhex | and then the build rule will do everything before, and everything after, dh_auto_test in its list o' commands - but not dh_auto_test | 11:30 |
| Laney | I thought the point was to override and version the b-d | 11:30 |
| directhex | Laney, or that | 11:30 |
| * Laney spins in circles | 11:30 | |
| * Laney goes back to just a minute | 11:30 | |
| * directhex flings a monkey at Laney | 11:30 | |
| rawang | directhex, oh, the point is run all the dhs before and after dh_auto_test, so that we could skip dh_auto_test, right? | 11:31 |
| directhex | right | 11:31 |
| rawang | got it | 11:31 |
| rawang | ugh, it appears to be complicated then, :( | 11:32 |
| directhex | rawang, easier with 7.0.50! | 11:32 |
| rawang | if my debhelper > 7.0.50, i could just using "override_dh_auto_test: with nothing " to simply skip the dh_auto_test, right? | 11:33 |
| directhex | right | 11:34 |
| rawang | ok | 11:34 |
| rawang | will try | 11:34 |

| fabrice_sp | !pbuilder | 19:10 |
| ubottu | pbuilder is a system to easily build packages in a clean chroot environment. To get started with PBuilder, see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/PbuilderHowto | 19:10 |
| kamalnandan | i have jaunty..how do i setup karmic? | 19:10 |
| fabrice_sp | !chroot | 19:10 |
| ubottu | chroot is used to make programs believe that the directory they are running in is really the root directory. It can be used to stop programs accessing files outside of that directory, or for compiling 32bit applications in a 64bit environment (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot) | 19:10 |
| fabrice_sp | I love that ! thing :-) | 19:11 |
| iulian | Our lovely robot. | 19:11 |
| fabrice_sp | :-D | 19:11 |
| kamalnandan | fabrice_sp...i havnt really ever used chroot.. | 19:11 |
| fabrice_sp | kamalnandan, with a chroot, you will avoid installing unnecessary packages in your normal environment | 19:12 |
| fabrice_sp | and you can have several versions (I even have a sid and a hardy chroot) | 19:12 |
| TheMuso | slytherin: I believe a work-around is going to be put in place. | 19:13 |
| kamalnandan | fabrice_sp: how do we do that? | 19:13 |
| iulian | kamalnandan: Everything you want to know can be found in those wiki pages. | 19:14 |
| andv | fabrice_sp, who says they are lost? | 19:15 |
| andv | fabrice_sp, I see them | 19:15 |
| kamalnandan | iulian: thanks..let me check that.. | 19:15 |
| andv | fabrice_sp, taskjuggler (2.2.0-1ubuntu1) dapper; urgency=low | 19:15 |
| andv | * debian/rules: call dh_iconcache | 19:15 |
| andv | for example | 19:15 |
| andv | fabrice_sp, you have to include all ubuntu changelogs | 19:15 |
| andv | I hope that's clear | 19:15 |
| andv | andol, yes? | 19:16 |
| andv | andol, you added karmic/intrepid entries and lost all the previous ones | 19:16 |
| andv | andol, what's not clear? | 19:17 |
| andv | andol, unison (2.13.16-5ubuntu1) feisty; urgency=low | 19:17 |
| andv | andol, unison (2.13.16-6ubuntu1) feisty; urgency=low | 19:17 |
| andv | should I continue? | 19:17 |
| andv | ;) | 19:17 |
| kamalnandan | fabrice_sp: you meant this page ..right | 19:20 |
| kamalnandan | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PbuilderHowto | 19:20 |
| fabrice_sp | andv, when I say lost I mean that in the last changelog (for version 2.4.1-1ubuntu3), there is only changes since 2.4.1-1 because of the sync of 2.4.1-1. | 19:21 |
| andv | fabrice_sp, https://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/taskjuggler | 19:21 |
| andv | fabrice_sp, it seems they are not lost in this page | 19:22 |
| fabrice_sp | Anyway, I'll recover all the ubuntu changes since the very first version, even if the package has been synced several time since then | 19:22 |
| fabrice_sp | andv, I was speaking in term of last changelog | 19:22 |
| andv | fabrice_sp, what's the point of dropping changelog entries? | 19:22 |
| fabrice_sp | andv, it was already dropped. I didn't dropped them by myself | 19:23 |
| andv | fabrice_sp, they got dropped cause a sync | 19:23 |
| fabrice_sp | yes | 19:23 |
| andv | fabrice_sp, but LP register every changelog entry submitted | 19:23 |
| andv | fabrice_sp, as you can see in the link I sent you | 19:23 |
| andv | fabrice_sp, so take LP as reference | 19:23 |
| fabrice_sp | I knoiw. that's only that until now, I alsways used the last changelog as reference. I will change the way I do the merge to include all entris since dapper | 19:24 |
| fabrice_sp | using LP and not the changelog | 19:24 |
| andv | follow LP | 19:25 |
| andv | and you'll do good | 19:25 |
| andv | :) | 19:25 |
| andv | those pages are there to be checked | 19:26 |
| fabrice_sp | does that mean also that when you 'ubuntify' a package (to fix a FTBFS, fo r example), you should check the previous ubuntu version, and add all of them to the changelog? | 19:26 |
| fabrice_sp | or it only apply to merge? | 19:26 |
| andv | fabrice_sp, you should answer yourself now :) | 19:26 |
| andv | fabrice_sp, if you fix a FTBFS on Ubuntu you won't use the Debian package | 19:27 |
| andv | but the one you find in the Ubuntu archives | 19:27 |
| andv | when you do a merge, you grab debian package and apply ubuntu changes | 19:27 |
| andv | losing changelog entries is not nice anyway | 19:28 |
| didrocks | StevenK: I am wondering about how to deal with clutter-gtk-doc (as it is the same package name and files in 0.8 version). Do we plan to remove 0.8 in karmic and I add a Replaces: or do you think we should use make the same trick that in clutter, ie using version number in -doc package name? | 19:29 |
| fabrice_sp | tbh, I still don't see the point of recovering a changelog entry from dapper, when the package has been synced 8 times since then. But I will add the dapper entry. Should I also add the build* entries? | 19:30 |
| fabrice_sp | ooops: no build entry in that case | 19:30 |
| andv | fabrice_sp, nvm | 19:31 |
| andv | fabrice_sp, leave it as it is | 19:31 |
| fabrice_sp | np: I'm updating it right now | 19:31 |
| fabrice_sp | andv, new debdiff uploaded | 19:37 |
| andv | fabrice_sp, perfect | 19:37 |
| andv | fabrice_sp, thanks for the fast responses | 19:38 |
| andv | fabrice_sp, I gonna process it later when I get back home | 19:38 |
| krisives | fabrice_sp: You helped me yesterday, right? | 19:38 |
| fabrice_sp | thanks to you to sponsor my upload | 19:38 |
| andv | fabrice_sp, are you willing to become a developer? | 19:38 |
| fabrice_sp | krisives, I think so, yes | 19:38 |
| fabrice_sp | about the patches, right? | 19:38 |
| krisives | I found the problem I was having | 19:38 |
| andv | or you are just a normal contributor | 19:39 |
| krisives | fabrice_sp: It was because my patch name was lexigraphically (caps) before the other patches | 19:39 |
| krisives | I actually filed a bogus bug report and then RTFM'd and it was in the man page :( | 19:39 |
| fabrice_sp | andv, for the moment, I'm just a u-c-d, but willing to become a motu at some point | 19:39 |
| fabrice_sp | krisives, this things happens, yes :-) | 19:39 |
| andv | fabrice_sp, cool | 19:40 |
| krisives | Yeah, but alwys lame to be the guy who fails to RTFM | 19:40 |
| fabrice_sp | lol | 19:40 |
| andv | fabrice_sp, when andol gets back tell him what to do | 19:40 |
| fabrice_sp | andv, ok | 19:40 |
| andv | ty | 19:41 |
| fabrice_sp | yw :-) | 19:41 |
| andv | fabrice_sp, where you the one who said you use mom? | 19:45 |
| krisives | The code in question is parsing an SFTP address by hand, and many NPE and other bugs have came from it, would it be a horrible idea to link with libpcre3 and use a regex? | 19:45 |
| fabrice_sp | andv, yes, but only to quickly get the dsc files, and the changelog. This is the part I will have to change | 19:46 |
| andv | fabrice_sp, start doing merges manually | 19:46 |
| andv | fabrice_sp, you'll improve and learn more | 19:46 |
| fabrice_sp | andv, apart from the changelog, I do it manually | 19:47 |
| fabrice_sp | easier to see what's happening | 19:47 |
| andv | k | 19:47 |
| andol | andv: You know, looking at the current Ubuntu unison package (2.27.57-1ubuntu1) doesn't contain any of those older changelog entries in its debian/changelog | 19:53 |
| andol | andv: If we add stuff, neither present in the current debian or ubuntu package, is it really a merge then? | 19:54 |
| andv | andol, add stuff? | 19:54 |
| andv | we add something that was there before | 19:54 |
| andv | andol, https://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unison | 19:55 |
| andv | andol, you see any changelog you didnt add? | 19:55 |
| andol | andv: Yes, I know LP keeps track of old stuff. What I'm saying is that the package unision 2.27.57-1ubuntu1 doesn't have those entires in its debian/changelog. | 19:56 |
| andv | andol, so? | 19:56 |
| andv | andol, it's something nice to do adding all changelog's entries | 19:56 |
| andol | andv: Hence I'm confusing about it beinga merge of 2.27.57-1ubuntu1 and 2.27-57-2, since we are adding stuff which isn't actually in any of those two packages. | 19:57 |
| andv | fabrice_sp, can you please explain him | 19:57 |
| andv | im leaving | 19:57 |
| geser | please only add the changelog entries since the last sync not all available ubuntu changelog entries | 19:57 |
| andv | geser, why? | 19:57 |
| andv | geser, I'm used to apply all changelog entries | 19:57 |
| andv | geser, some other developers are used to apply them all | 19:58 |
| andv | there is no rule against it | 19:58 |
| geser | why do you add changelog entries for changes that have nothing to do with the current changes (i.e. when there was a sync in between) | 19:58 |
| andv | geser, what's the point of dropping entries? | 19:59 |
| andv | geser, does old entries hurt someone? | 19:59 |
| geser | no, but they don't help either | 19:59 |
| andv | some developers add them all, some other don't | 19:59 |
| andv | there is no rule | 19:59 |
| andv | and I prefer having all of them | 19:59 |
| geser | why it is important to re-add changelog entries from dapper when you do a change in karmic? | 20:00 |
| andv | geser, I'm used to do it | 20:00 |
| andv | geser, I see nothing bad on doing it | 20:00 |
| andv | geser, I could say the same of dropping them | 20:00 |
| andv | geser, someone worked on that package on dapper so we have to credit him for his work | 20:01 |
| andv | dropping stuff won't help | 20:01 |
| geser | and why do we credit it only in dapper and karmic and not e.g. in jaunty (where the package is synced)? | 20:01 |
| andv | geser, all changelog entries are added | 20:02 |
| andv | geser, so we add jaunty stuff too | 20:02 |
| geser | and when there are no ubuntu changes in jaunty? | 20:02 |
| geser | then there are no ubuntu changelog entries there at all? | 20:02 |
| andv | geser, if there are no changes we have to credit no one | 20:02 |
| geser | and why do you want to credit someone for changes in dapper when adding a new change to a synced package? | 20:03 |
| geser | or do I don't understand the problem? | 20:04 |
| andv | it looks like you are not understanding | 20:04 |
| andv | he is doing a merge | 20:04 |
| geser | if the changes are carried over since dapper then I'm also for keeping the changelog entries since dapper | 20:04 |
| andv | and I told him to apply all changes since the beginning | 20:04 |
| andv | (on the changelog) | 20:04 |
| geser | but I'm not for re-introducing changelog entries for changes that were merged in to the debian package already | 20:05 |
| andv | geser, we think that different then | 20:05 |
| andv | geser, there is no rule on it | 20:05 |
| fabrice_sp | sorry, I was having an ice cream | 20:05 |
| andv | geser, I like to have them all, but might be different for you | 20:05 |
| geser | no, but you are the first I know of doing it that way | 20:05 |
| andv | DktrKranz does it too | 20:06 |
| andv | for example | 20:06 |
| andv | geser, anyway as I already said there is no rule on it | 20:07 |
| andv | so we can have different opinions | 20:07 |
| geser | true | 20:07 |
| andv | no one can say that my / your opinion is right or wrong | 20:08 |
| andv | so andol if you wanna do it, good | 20:08 |
| andv | if not I won't take care of your merge, sorry | 20:08 |
| geser | and I'm certainly not telling that my opinion is the only truth, just commenting | 20:10 |
| andol | Well, unison 2.27.57-2 doesn't seem to come with any overly important changes anyway... | 20:10 |
| andv | geser, yeah np | 20:12 |
| geser | andol: I'm not saying that you shouldn't do as your sponsor wants it, just noting that other sponsors might have a different view on things | 20:12 |
| andv | I'm off, andol if you still wanna fix it as fabrice_sp | 20:13 |
| andv | * ask | 20:13 |
| andol | geser: ok | 20:13 |
| fabrice_sp | I'm still here with my ice cream (32ºC here) :-) | 20:13 |
| andol | fabrice_sp: Ice cream is something I agree very much to :-) | 20:14 |
| andv | leaving | 20:14 |
| fabrice_sp | lol | 20:14 |
| andv | cya | 20:14 |
| fabrice_sp | bye | 20:14 |
| geser | fabrice_sp: and it's not thawing? | 20:14 |
| andv | 7away | 20:14 |
| fabrice_sp | geser, no, because I'm a fast eater :-) | 20:15 |
| sebner | geser: have I read the backlog correctly? andv wants to re-add changes to the changelog when there was a sync and the re-added changes doesn't have anything todo with the current changes? | 20:17 |
| geser | sebner: if I understand it correctly then yes | 20:17 |
| === rmcbride_ is now known as rmcbride | ||
| sebner | geser: wth? You are right, nobody does that, simply because it doesn't make any sense | 20:18 |
| geser | I certainly won't hunt down old changelog entries from LP and only keep those which are already there | 20:19 |
| iulian | Hmm, could someone please enlighten me a bit about this situation. When we do a change to a package and that change is merged with the debian package, why should we bother in keeping the changelog of that *specific* change we did? | 20:21 |
| iulian | In this case, the changes will appear twice. | 20:21 |
| geser | iulian: not the change, but the old changelog entries, telling that we changed the package once in the past | 20:22 |
| iulian | geser: I meant the changelog entries. | 20:23 |
| sebner | iulian: if you sync a package our old changes vanish because debian changelog doesn't contain them | 20:23 |
| iulian | sebner: Yes, but it seems that andv wants to keep the changelog entries, even though, the changes we made are merged. | 20:25 |
| iulian | This is what I want to clarify. | 20:25 |
| fabrice_sp | iulian, you cna have a look at bug #400528 | 20:25 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 400528 in taskjuggler "Please merge taskjuggler 2.4.3-1 from Debian unstable" [Wishlist,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/400528 | 20:25 |
| geser | yes, e.g. intrepid: make changes, jaunty: sync, karmic: make other changes and re-add intrepid changelog | 20:26 |
| fabrice_sp | in this case, I added the Dapper entry to the changelog | 20:26 |
| fabrice_sp | (you have both changelog) | 20:26 |
| andol | or in my case, bug #377652 | 20:26 |
| iulian | geser: Why's that? | 20:26 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 377652 in unison "please merge unison 2.27.57-2 (universe) from debian unstable (main)" [Wishlist,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/377652 | 20:26 |
| geser | iulian: don't know, andv told to credit the old contributor | 20:28 |
| iulian | geser: That's why +packages are for. | 20:28 |
| iulian | Or whatever that page was. | 20:28 |
| andol | iulian: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/packagename ? | 20:29 |
| iulian | /+uploaded-packages | 20:30 |
| geser | andol: I'm currently reading through the bug, but we don't need to mention the maintainer change (can lookup the mail for andv if necessary) | 20:32 |
| andol | geser: Thanks, but I was actually just about to unassign myself from the merge. The changes just doesn't seem important enough to take a fight with a sponsor over. | 20:40 |
| geser | andol: for me http://launchpadlibrarian.net/29794377/unison_2.27.57-2_2.27.57-2ubuntu1.debdiff would be ready for sponsoring (after a quick look), but I don't want to hijack this now | 20:43 |
| andol | geser: Ohh well, no hurry I guess. If nothing else we can always let this issue rest for a day or two. | 20:44 |
| geser | I'm for educating new contributors, but certainly don't let them repeat a debdiff for small errors till they are near the point of abandoning the merge | 20:46 |
| geser | I inform them about the small errors (so they learn for the future) and fix them myself before uploading | 20:46 |
| andol | geser: Actually, I don't mind nitpicking, as long as I get to learn more. In this case the problem was/is having to do changes which I didn't understand why to do. (I.e the old changelog entries) | 20:48 |
| geser | me neither | 20:48 |
