the_madmanHello everyone.10:17
the_madmanI've got something of a major problem...10:17
the_madmanWhenever I try to run, "sudo", I get: "sudo: must be setuid root"10:17
the_madmanThing is, I made sure I was in the admin group and double-checked /etc/sudoers with visudo.10:17
rubyistchmod o+s /usr/bin/sudo10:18
the_madmanrubyist: Is this when I get glad that I set a root password?10:18
rubyistyeah, do it as root10:18
the_madmanrubyist: Done, but I still get the same error.10:19
rubyistls -al /usr/bin/sudo10:19
the_madman-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 115136 2009-02-17 03:22 /usr/bin/sudo10:19
rubyistthe +s wasn't set.10:19
the_madmanAh.10:19
the_madman... It isn't letting me set it as root.10:20
rubyistjust try, chmod +s /usr/bin/sudo10:20
the_madman-rwsr-sr-x 1 root root 115136 2009-02-17 03:22 /usr/bin/sudo10:21
rubyistok now its set..10:21
the_madmanLooks better, methinks.10:21
rubyisttry sudo now10:21
the_madmanAh, it's working now.10:21
the_madmanThanks.10:21
rubyistok10:21
the_madmanI suppose you wouldn't know what changed it, since you weren't following my every move...10:21
rubyistnope, no idea.10:22
the_madmanWhat exactly does the 's' bit do?10:22
rubyistyou could have accidentely removed the s bit on all files, i don't knwo10:22
rubyistdon't know*10:22
rubyistit runs the command with the permissions of the user/group10:22
the_madmanOh! I think I know now.10:22
rubyistso runs with the permission of root in this case10:22
the_madmanI see.10:23
the_madmanThanks.10:23
the_madmanI know what I did.10:23
the_madmanGot some problems with Nepomuk not seeing /usr/lib/soprano/libsoprano_sesame2backend.so10:23
the_madmanEven though the file exists.10:23
rubyistis that where it looks?10:24
the_madmanSo I went and (quite oblivious to the +s bit) did chmod -R 755 /usr10:24
the_madman*facepalm10:24
rubyistah :)10:25
the_madmanYeah, nepomukserver spits out, '(Soprano::PluginManager) found no soprano plugin at  "/usr/lib/soprano/libsoprano_sesame2backend.so"'10:25
the_madmanIn a console.10:25
rubyisthm no clue, never used it before10:26
the_madman-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 108416 2009-02-13 18:55 /usr/lib/soprano/libsoprano_sesame2backend.so10:26
the_madmanIt's absolutely, definitely there. >.<'10:26
the_madmanIt's a shame as well... I quite liked nepomuk on Gentoo...10:26
the_madmanWas one of the only things that actually worked, though >.<'10:27

mat69omg why does openjdk6-source depend on pulseaudio?!10:58
mat69hmm the dependencies are completly fucked, so much (artificially) depends on gnome and other things11:08
ghostcubemat69: if there are calls to the libs it brings in i wont say its fucked up11:15
mat69ghostcube: another one is fam, pulls a lot of gnome stuff11:17
mat69and no, fam depends in no way on anything gnome related in reality11:17
hyper_chanyone here using kde 4.3.1 and OOo 3.1? I have a problem that when I want to save (or save as) and then in the dialog box, where I can tell name and location, when I right click on the directory structur the contex menu appears but there's not text  --> http://www.sjau.ch/ooobug.png11:18
ghostcubeif there is anything inside depending on gnome functions sure11:18
mat69trying to install a dev-environment results in nearly as many gnome stuff as kde stuff ...11:18
mat69when they changed fam a lot11:18
mat69a stupid way11:18
ghostcubeit wouldnt work on gnome if it wouldnt depend on some of its functions11:18
mat69it is no problem if gnome-apps pull it, as _they_ depend on it11:19
mat69but fam itself should not pull gnome-stuff11:20
childrenhi11:36
childrentesting11:36
childrentesting11:36
Mamarokmat69: FAM is obsolete, you shouldn't use it in KDE anyway11:44
mat69Mamarok: what made it obsolete? the cmake output suggests to use it11:44
Mamarokmat69: what are you trying to compile?11:44
mat69Mamarok: I do compile everything, but in that case I think it was kdelibs11:45
Mamarokmat69: right, then you should check on techbase,kde,org or ask in #kde, AFAIK it is not really needed anmore11:46
mat69well I have installed it now anyway11:46
Mamarokmust be Kubuntu specific then, but most distributions don't need it anymore11:47
mat69Mamarok: the cmake output is not Kubuntu specific ;)11:47
mat69it is optional11:47
Mamarokmat69: also, AFAIK Kubuntu uses gamin11:49
Mamarokwhich is intened as a FAM replacement11:49
mat69Mamarok: gamin is not even installed by default11:50
Mamarokneither are11:50
Mamarokbut if you need a file monitoring tool, gamin is the way to go11:50
mat69Mamarok: it appears that gamin is not supported by kde --> at least no cmake-msg about it11:51
mat69with kde I mean the src11:52
Mamarokmat69: well, then you should ask in #kde or #kde-devel, this goes way beyond the scope of this channel :)11:52
