persia | Sorry to be late. Anyone about for a Packaging Training session? I'll start about 6:30 about updating packages, if there is interest. | 07:26 |
persia | Anyone? | 07:40 |
JamesCharles | ! | 07:42 |
Rail | +1 | 07:43 |
persia | JamesCharles, Hey. Since you seem to be the only interested party, is there something other than updating a package that might be interesting to you? | 07:43 |
persia | Rail, Feel free to suggest something as well :) | 07:43 |
JamesCharles | lol, i'm the only one! | 07:44 |
Rail | hmm, maybe compatability between Debian and Ubuntu... :) | 07:44 |
persia | Well, half. I spoke too soon. | 07:44 |
persia | Rail, Have you read sabdfl's essay about that? ( https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MarkShuttleworth#What%20about%20binary%20compatibility%20between%20distributions ) I could talk about some specific bits in more detail, or about collaboration between Debian and Ubuntu. | 07:46 |
Rail | persia: as you now, mozilla-devscripts is not in Debian, so using it is an issue... | 07:46 |
persia | For cases like that, where some useful piece of build infrastructure has been developed, it's often a good idea to introduce it for wider use by submitting it to Debian. In this specific case, it's a bit tricky because of the name. | 07:48 |
Rail | I don't care about binary compatability, it's normal to have different system libs... | 07:49 |
Rail | you mean mozilla part of the package name? | 07:50 |
persia | Yes. As I understand it, the word "mozilla" is protected in various ways. I'm not deeply familar with the details. | 07:51 |
Rail | xpi-devtools would be a solution. :) | 07:52 |
persia | Indeed, although it would also need to be something that met the needs of those maintaining the mozilla suite for both Debian and Ubuntu to be useful in Debian. | 07:52 |
persia | I'm not sure it would be the right answer for iceweasel, but it might help for some of the extensions. | 07:52 |
persia | I'd recommend discussion with the Ubuntu Mozilla Team (on #ubuntu-mozillateam) who are vastly more well informed than I. | 07:53 |
Rail | ok | 07:53 |
Rail | is there special tricks in debian/watch for xpi? | 07:55 |
=== jonathan2 is now known as highvoltage | ||
persia | I believe there are some special scripts used to drive the get-orig-source rules. I don't know if they also provide watch file hooks. I haven't looked at mozilla-devscripts in at least a year, and I know it's gotten better during that time. | 07:56 |
persia | My areas of expertise are more about creating packages, updating packages, merging packages, splitting packages, adding patches to packages, replacing packages, etc. | 07:57 |
persia | I'm less knowledgeable about things having to do with specific subclasses of packages. | 07:58 |
Rail | np | 07:58 |
DasEi | still probs with time, date - u tells me 7.30 , that's right with you ? | 08:09 |
DasEi | 7.08, sorry | 08:09 |
DasEi | DreamThief: whats your ubuntu-classroom time now ? | 08:10 |
Rail | date --utc :) | 08:13 |
qwebirc89708 | hi | 08:13 |
DasEi | k, same as date -u for me, 7.14 now | 08:15 |

aboSamoor | Hi, I don't know anything about packaging but I will try to read and understand :) | 16:29 |
mmaret | aboSamoor: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=51003 | 16:34 |
mmaret | or you can also search for IRC log | 16:35 |
mmaret | and get previous lesson about this subject | 16:35 |
mmaret | aboSamoor: for this morning session (that was a very short one) http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2009/08/06/ | 16:37 |
aboSamoor | mmaret, yeah, I was not precise. I tried the packaging tutorial many times. And every time I fail to sign and upload the packages. I was following the guides with the help of #ubuntu-motu | 16:37 |
mmaret | ok sorry :) | 16:38 |
aboSamoor | mmaret, packaging is not hard but I think it is more depends on experience and this signing problem is really annoying :( | 16:40 |
mmaret | hoo yes! | 16:40 |
