| shakaran | N: If the name of the man page differs from the binary by case, man may be | 00:00 |

| shakaran | ok, I will check now | 00:01 |
| porthose | shakaran, have you read debian policy 12.1? | 00:01 |

| === micahg1 is now known as micahg | ||
| shakaran | well, then what I need to fix? | 00:06 |
| shakaran | I need to gzip the file? | 00:14 |
| joaopinto | shakaran, you should learn how to use linux in general, and care about development/packaging later | 00:14 |
| shakaran | well, then when I release my app? | 00:15 |
| joaopinto | not understanding how file permissions work is a serious risk for packaging | 00:15 |
| shakaran | The problem is that I dont know every word in english, and all the documentation is in ENGLISH | 00:16 |
| joaopinto | shakaran, when you are ready to do it, or by filling a needs packaging request and wait for someone to package it | 00:16 |
| shakaran | the lintian message dont suggest anything for me over change the permission of file | 00:16 |
| shakaran | only "read the manual"...and "read again"...that dont help anything | 00:17 |
| joaopinto | shakaran, I was refering to your previous question, about the image file permissions | 00:17 |
| shakaran | yeah, but your answer offend me | 00:18 |
| joaopinto | shakaran, you need to understand how to generate a manpage and how to install it as part of the packaging process | 00:18 |
| joaopinto | shakaran, I had no intention to offend you, is just that you should get basic linux skills before packaging, understandinf file permissions is fundamental | 00:19 |
| directhex | manpage generation isn't actually a common skill amongst ubuntu packagers, but it's mandatory for debian's NM process | 00:19 |
| shakaran | yeah, I read a lot of stuff, but it is only for C, myapp is write in python and many things changes (maybe dont with manpage) | 00:19 |
| shakaran | I use ubuntu since 5.04...believe I know how to change the file permissions, but I dont understand what says me the message | 00:19 |
| joaopinto | shakaran, ok please apologize I didn't understood it was an english interpretation problem :( | 00:20 |
| shakaran | yeah, my real problem is write/speak in english (I have a basic level) | 00:21 |
| shakaran | joaopinto: apology accepted | 00:22 |
| shakaran | well, then I have the XML file on /debian (I really want learn to package by myself). Then I change the manpage.xml.ex to myapp.xml | 00:23 |
| shakaran | And then I don gzip -9 myapp.xml? | 00:23 |
| shakaran | I need change the debian/rules file to copy to /usr/share/man/? | 00:24 |
| shakaran | or something more for remove the lintian warning? | 00:24 |
| joaopinto | shakaran, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/SupplementaryFiles#Man%20Pages | 00:26 |
| shakaran | thanks, I go to read it (Im back if I have problems) | 00:27 |
| showard | ampelbein: octave3.0 builds now, I think the bug you linked fixed it. Could you do a "give-back?" (is a give-back just a request to the build server to rebuild?) | 00:38 |
| Ampelbein | showard: yes. will do. | 00:39 |
| jtimberman | yeehaw. 'jaunty' packages built for all the dependencies for chef that weren't backported yet. yay sbuild. | 00:41 |
| jtimberman | man pages, fwiw, are much easier to digest when you have help2man (and a program properly outputs --help and --version). | 00:43 |
| shakaran | joaopinto: I read the manual. It says about use pod2man and include perl as dependency, but it only neccesary for build from .pod file to manpage. I use a .xml file for that, how to convert from .xml? | 00:45 |

| czambran | or should I just fix it on Ubuntu? | 20:53 |
| zooko | What is the "upstream" for mime-support -- is it Debian? | 21:01 |

| zooko | So you should use launchpad and add to that ticket: "Also affects distribution" -> Debian | 21:19 |

| zooko | Hey, shouldn't that be "effects" not "affects"? | 21:19 |

| zooko | I followed your medical crisis on twitter. | 21:20 |
| zooko | Strange how we live in science fiction. | 21:20 |
| czambran | that is pretty handy. It said "Debian doesn't use Launchpad as its bug tracker. Without a bug URL to watch, the Debian status will not update automatically" | 21:20 |

| zooko | I'm glad you are okay. | 21:22 |
| czambran | zooko, should I do it manually or install the program reportbug which they suggest I use? | 21:22 |
| warner | czambran: if you've got a sid box, you should use reportbug.. it will include details like what version you've got installed | 21:24 |
| warner | I haven't tried to install/run reportbug on an unbuntu box | 21:24 |
| czambran | I could always run another virtual machine. I will do that then | 21:25 |
| zooko | warner: :-( reportbug was utterly and horribly broken on Ubuntu from before the first release of Ubuntu until they finally after many years did something | 21:25 |

| zooko | I don't think you should wait for warner to fix it. | 21:42 |
