[02:33] they are both low risk, packages that were incorrectly removed, which I've fixed and restored in Debian [02:33] OK. Ack #1 from me. [02:34] that's probably why they were put against 'ubuntu' rather than the package [02:34] lifeless: What's pqm and why don't we have it in the archive? [02:34] Yay for bzr 2.0! [02:34] ajmitch_: yes, I'm just filing a ubuntu-dev-tools bug :P [02:34] ... which, by the way, supports storing your repositories in a Tahoe-LAFS grid (through its ftp interface). [02:35] ScottK: its very awkward to package; its a cron script for doing merges. [02:35] Okay I need to go read bedtime stories to an 8-year-old and then I'm going to try to improve the licensing in Tahoe-LAFS in http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/p/tahoe-lafs . [02:35] ScottK: it may get packaged, but at the moment its much easier to drop it in a dedicated users homedir [02:35] OK. [02:35] do you still mostly drive PQM from procmail? [02:36] yes [02:36] zooko: ciao! [02:36] Oh, one more detail: a user named Nils Durner is writing an article entitled "distributed revision control in the cloud" about how he uses bzr 1.18 with Tahoe-LAFS. [02:36] Okay, back in a bit. [02:37] hey ajmitch_ [02:37] hi [02:41] hi ajmitch_ and zul [02:41] hey LaserJock [02:41] LaserJock! how is it going? [02:41] going pretty OK [02:42] been working [02:42] but glad to have the PhD done [02:42] one more needed :) [02:42] stupid thing took forever [02:42] Dr LaserJock, what a thought :) [02:42] ajmitch_: yes, it's very weird to see a Dr in front of my name on the office door [02:43] Hobbsee: ping [02:43] you're doing a postdoc at the moment, or working outside academia? [02:44] both [02:44] postdoc'ing at the Air Force Research Lab [02:44] I'm a rocket scientist now ;-) [02:45] RocketJock? [02:46] lol [02:46] uhhh, somehow that doesn't quite sound as good [02:46] didn't ogra once see a sign for a LaserRock concert? [02:46] StevenK: why aren't you in motu-release [02:47] ajmitch_: I still work with lasers, I'm just using them for the Department of Defense ;-) === Sp4rKy is now known as Guest91519 [03:18] OK, checkinstall page complete with a new warning. This one copied direct from the upstream README, so it ought to be hard to argue with. [03:20] 'dont use this' ? [03:21] I already put in don't use this on packages intended for distribution. [03:21] you suck if you use this? [03:21] If they want to explode their own systems, that's their business. [03:23] Good evening, all. I asked this question the other day, and it is likely that someone answered it while I've been idle and I can't seem to locate it in my buffer ... [03:24] Does anyone know if Launchy has been packaged for Ubuntu? If not, I'd be interested in packaging it myself. [03:24] I can't seem to find it in the standard repos ... [03:24] But I am, admittedly, a neophyte on this ... [03:26] back [03:27] ScottK: I am addressing the licensing questions listed in http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/report.py/legal?upid=6899 [03:27] Do I really need to add a copyright statement to every file? [03:27] Looking [03:27] I'm of the !citation perspective there [03:27] but I'm not an archive admin [03:28] I don't really mind. It's just a few minutes of work writing a script to do it or something... [03:28] if one considers the program as a 'work', then a full file is no more or less a part than a parapgraph is [03:28] so its rather odd to obssess about files [03:28] I think we've inherited this from RCS [03:28] zooko: They are not absolutely required, but they are a good practice. What is absolutely required is that a full copy of all licenses used in the package be shipped in the upstream tarball. [03:29] ScottK: how about in the copyright file which is included in the upstream tarball? [03:30] zooko: Does it have a full copy of the license? [03:30] Yes on TGPPL1, no on GPL2, no on MIT [03:30] It's all got to be there. [03:31] On something like MIT which may have the complete license cited in a program file, that's sufficient. [03:31] Hm, and there are also LGPL2 files. [03:31] There just needs to be a full copy, it's not required to be a separate file. [03:31] ScottK: what about asf 2, which explicitly wants a web reference? [03:31] lifeless: Then put a full copy of it in with the web reference. [03:32] heh [03:32] There's no other way to know the actual terms since web references can be changed. [03:47] So, there is a file in Tahoe-LAFS which says "It will be released under the BSD license." http://allmydata.org/trac/tahoe/browser/src/allmydata/util/figleaf.py [03:48] Subsequently new versions of that project have indeed been released under MIT: http://darcs.idyll.org/~t/projects/figleaf/doc/ [03:48] What should I do? I think the best answer is: remove that file and break that feature for now. [03:51] No, I'd just add a copy of the BSD license to the tarball. [03:51] If you can reasonably figure out which one they mean. [03:52] The modern version says "figleaf is available under the MIT license." in the announcements and "license='BSD'," in the python setup.py metadata. :-) [03:52] Whats included in the package is what counts. [03:54] What does "license='BSD'" mean in Python metadata? [03:54] I suppose it means the same thing that "License :: OSI Approved :: BSD License" means in the Trove Classifiers. [03:54] Which I guess is "BSD-new": http://www.opensource.org/licenses/bsd-license.php [03:55] How old is the old version of the package? [03:56] "BUILD SUCCESSFUL" [03:56] * Darxus dances. [03:56] (azureus) [03:56] ScottK: three years ago: http://allmydata.org/trac/tahoe/changeset/144/src/allmydata/util/figleaf.py [03:57] Then I think that's a reasonable assumption. 4 clause BSD was recinded in 1999. [04:05] So, should I also include the text of GPL2 in the copyright file, or is that one specially excepted? [04:05] The copyright file does say "On Debian GNU/Linux systems, the complete text of the GNU General Public License can be found in `/usr/share/common-licenses/GPL'/". [04:07] Okay here is our new copyright file: http://testgrid.allmydata.org:3567/file/URI%3ACHK%3Ab4t7r43svbjrid2yaylg6bug5m%3Aacj7tzbq64us74rp2prg3okaptn6hnkhweupowp626o4wtsrw7kq%3A3%3A10%3A30075/@@named=/copyright [04:07] zooko: the upstream taball has to have the GPL [04:08] GPL2 I mean [04:08] lifeless: it does. [04:08] zooko: the debian binary can reference it [04:08] lifeless: okay [04:14] Hm, okay now I'm trying to build a new package with these changes but I don't know how to use debuild... [04:14] debuild -i -S [04:16] Hm, so before I can run debuild, I need to construct an ubuntuized directory out of .orig.tar.gz and the .diff from here, right? http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/p/tahoe-lafs [04:16] dget http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/p/tahoe-lafs [04:17] uupdate [04:17] Except with the full url to the .dsc [04:17] if the package has a correct watch file and you've published your new upstream [04:18] I haven't published my new upstream. [04:18] you should do that :) [04:18] I want to apply these patches to licensing statements just to the Tahoe-LAFS which was already reviewed by kirkland. [04:19] Our trunk has a few feature improvements that we haven't released yet. [04:19] so, conceptually the debian package has no business changing licence data from upstream [04:19] can you do a point release? [04:20] * zooko reviews his project's recent history. [04:21] v1.5.0 was released on 2009-08-01. Since then, we've edited the docs... [04:22] refactored a core component, updated the build scripts to build Debian/Ubuntu packages better, [04:22] zooko: btw [04:23] FTP is really slow; if Tahoe could offer SFTP or even a custom transport, the bzr integration would be orders of magnitude better [04:23] -> #bzr if you want more detail ;) [04:23] I do, but not right now. [04:23] you know where to find me :) [04:23] I actually think I need to give up on this project for tonight -- it is past my bedtime and I need to be patient while helping my boys get ready for school in the morning. [04:24] I don't think the Tahoe-LAFS project wants to make a new release of any kind before Karmic's Beta Freeze (which is imminent). [04:24] We've already committed these changes to trunk, but not made a release. [04:25] So it isn't so much that the Ubuntu packaging is changing these things as that it is applying these patches from trunk and not taking the feature-improvements and refactorings that are also on trunk more recent than the most recent stable release. [04:25] Anyway, thanks a lot for the help! [04:26] zooko: ok [04:27] * zooko makes a note to ask lifeless about better Tahoe-LAFS bzr integration. [04:27] By the way I'm not the author of the relevant patches, but I can learn. [04:27] Aha I figured out how to debuild this thing I downloaded from revu... [04:35] lifeless: I'm supposed to be? [04:35] StevenK: no but if you were I could nag you [04:36] * StevenK adds another reason to the list for not being in motu-release [04:36] Dang, debsign says my secret key is not available. However "gpg --sign $FILE" works. [04:37] zooko: Look that the name/email address in debian/changelog. It likely doesn't match what's in your key. [04:37] This can also happen if your key has a comment on it [04:37] That too. [04:38] Ah, it is probably that I have two uids... [04:39] Yay! [04:39] * zooko wonders what -i and -S mean. [04:40] * ScottK hands zooko man dpkg-buildpackage [04:40] The -i you didn't actually need. [04:41] Ah, for what it is worth I had already looked at man debuild before I said that... [04:41] Recall the debuild is essentially a wrapper for dpkg-buildpackage, lintian, and debsign. [04:41] Thanks. [04:49] Okay, now I'm going to try dput... [04:51] Hm, does this mean it worked? http://codepad.org/U1lT29It [04:54] Ah, I got a nice rejection letter in the mail. [04:54] The signer of this package has no upload rights to this distribution's primary archive. Did you mean to upload to a PPA? [04:54] It said. [04:55] Where did you to dput to? [04:56] dput ../tahoe-lafs_1.5.0-0ubuntu2_source.changes http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/p/tahoe-lafs [04:56] Upload package to host ubuntu [04:56] Howdy doko_! [04:57] zooko: Ah. dput doesn't take a URL to upload to like that, so it uploaded it to the master archive, and got rejected. Read 'man dput' [04:57] Thanks. [04:58] zooko: For further reference, you'll also get a message from the PPA system if your upload worked [04:58] and the mail address was right :P [04:59] Thanks! Darn, it looks like this failed attempt has left evidence of 0ubuntu2 already being there, so now dput says "Already uploaded" and won't reupload it. [04:59] Aha, there is a .upload file locally that has that in it... [04:59] dput -f, or remove the .upload file [05:04] * zooko waits for mail from the PPA system. [05:09] Hm, this time I said to upload to "revu.ubuntuwire.com" and I got the same rejection letter: "The signer of this package has no upload rights to this distribution's primary archive. Did you mean to upload to a PPA?" [05:11] zooko: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Packages/REVU [05:11] micahg: thanks. [05:18] * jdong looks at bug 434979 [05:18] Launchpad bug 434979 in azureus "vuze just asked me for money" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/434979 [05:18] do we have any Free-ness guidelines about money nagging? [05:19] It's distasteful at best. [05:19] wholeheartedly agreed [05:19] I don't think we should hesitate a moment about removing it. [05:19] furthermore looking at comment #2... [05:19] apparently it nags you FURTHER if you decline [05:19] and apparently loads ads? [05:20] heh definitely borders on ridiculous [05:59] Is this "nagging" not just a natural consequence of declaring bug #268447 invalid? :) Someone is apparently trying to push the envelope... once you open that door, all kinds of bad stuff will come in. [05:59] Launchpad bug 268447 in ichthux-meta "MOTD should not point to https://landscape.canonical.com if you are not a customer" [Undecided,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/268447 [06:02] Hooray for me! I have successfully uploaded a package to REVU! http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/p/tahoe-lafs [06:03] Tahoe-LAFS has already been reviewed and advocated by kirkland, so it hopefully doesn't require too much work to confirm that the changes since he advocated don't invalidate his advocacy. [06:03] Therefore, if I understand correctly, after such a review to make sure we didn't break anything, Tahoe-LAFS is ready to be uploaded into Karmic! [06:04] jmarsden: You'll notice MOTD doesn't do that anymore. [06:05] zooko: It takes two advocates. [06:05] ScottK: In Jaunty? Or in Karmic Alphas? In Jaunty with full updates here it still seems to do that. [06:06] My Jaunty doesn't do that anymore. [06:06] I'm reasonably certain I didn't change anything. [06:06] Well, mine doesn't because I added the appropriate lines to the config file to kill it off :) [06:07] ScottK: Okay, I will ask iulian and rainct and pox if they can advocate for its inclusion. [06:07] zooko: POX is not a MOTU, so his wouldn't count here (unfortunately). [06:08] Okay, I'll ask those other two. [06:08] ScottK: And my Karmic Alpha6 Server VM does still have that ad in the MOTD... so I don't think it has been silently fixed. [06:09] jmarsden: If it'd just been "Buy my proprietary add-on", then I think that would have been an appropriate precedent. [06:10] I think if I were the author/packager of vuze and you kill one and not the other, I'd declare that to be hypocritical... [06:12] I'm not a fan of either one, but the vuze one seems more in your face. [06:14] Okay, I've emailed iulian and rainct asking if they will advocate for Tahoe-LAFS. [06:14] Thanks for your help, folks. Good night! [06:18] ScottK: Definitely agreed... but the thing is, IMO if someone with authority declares the vuze one to be "bad" enough to kill it, either they must also declare the landscape-sysinfo one to be similarly "bad" too, or they are in effect setting some sort of hard to defend unwritten standard half way down a very slippery slope.

How its tarball works is that you just need to extract it into a dir called /opt/SUNWspro and dump the contents into it thats all so Im assuming that i dont need the default rules file that has been created automatically.. could i just do by writing a purpose served rule file?

[10:35] as I assumed: during the package build the "binary" targets gets called (line 23) but when you look at your rules files you see that binary only depends on binary-arch which does nothing [10:35] your whole work to build the package is in binary-indep which isn't used [10:36] ouch. [10:36] btw: is your "link" target not used by purpose as a dependency somewhere? [10:37] it is [10:37] not as a dependency but a seperate rule [10:37] change the dependency for binary from binary-arch to binary-indep (or list both) and you should come a little further [10:37] ubuntu keyserver is on its knees... [10:37] geser: yeah did that... hope it works now [10:39] ok thats resolved but ran into this.. http://pastie.org/627139 [10:40] replace line 19 in your rules with what needs to be done to "install" the package [10:41] s/the package/the software/ [10:41] ok [10:51] cp: cannot stat `READMEs:': No such file or directory ;;;dh_installdocs: command returned error code 256;;; make: *** [binary-arch] Error 1 ;;; dpkg-buildpackage: failure: debian/rules binary gave error exit status 2 [10:51] are these error coming from installdocs [10:59] Does anyone know if fPIC flag is needed with GCC 4.4? [11:15] slytherin: Why would it not be? [11:16] mok0: I am just asking. I searched on google and someone said it was present in old version of gcc (4.2). [11:16] slytherin: you mean on by default? [11:16] slytherin, better keep it around [11:17] There were failures in java3d on Debian buildd that were fixed by adding -fPIC flag. These failures were not seen on Ubuntu buildd. So I was wondering if it is because of gcc version difference. [11:18] slytherin: oh I see [11:19] slytherin: failures when running or failures during compilation? [11:20] mok0: FTBFS. :-) [11:20] slytherin: Hm, weird [11:21] slytherin: There can be many subtle differences in the compiler [11:21] slytherin: and perhaps the optimization setting was different [11:22] slytherin: Optimization might re-organize the code so it just fits within a segment [11:23] hmm, possible [11:23] (or the other way around) [11:24] slytherin: In that case, adding -fpic should be sufficient :-) [11:36] WFT? Icons are gone from Launchpad's home pages [11:37] I should say "branding" [11:37] mok0: LP 3.0 is being released today. [11:39] slytherin: Don't they usually shut the thing down for upgrades? [11:39] they usually make it read only [11:39] any PHP experts here? [11:40] !ask [11:40] Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [11:40] :-D [11:41] I am looking for some help in solving the error seen at the top - http://ubuntu-in.info/wiki/index.php/Main_Page [11:42] slytherin: can you pastebin the code (relevant part)? [11:43] Very nice hp btw [11:44] mok0: http://paste.ubuntu.com/276316/ [11:44] hp? [11:45] homepage :-) [11:46] slytherin: I take it line 9 in the paste corresponds to line 78 in "Polyglot.php" [11:46] mok0: yes [11:46] I will be back [11:50] slytherin: obviously, $GLOBALS['wgLanguageNames'] is not an array === cprov-afk is now known as cprov [11:59] mok0: Solved the problem. Language.php file which defines the array was not included in LocalSettings.php [12:11] what's MIR ? [12:11] !MIR [12:11] mir is Main Inclusion Report - see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MainInclusionProcess for more information. [12:12] ah [12:12] thanks [12:20] <`brandon`> hello, i have parallel plesk but it's .dev40.* [12:20] <`brandon`> i need to make it into a .deb file only can you help. [12:38] wiggle wiggle [12:44] * hyperair thanks cjwatson for syncing remuco [12:45] * slytherin congratulates hyperair :-) [12:46] =) [13:03] hyperair: that was sponsored by me, be prepared to receive tons of bugs! [13:03] DktrKranz: are you saying my work is lousy? ;-) [13:05] hyperair: no, but who knows what I added to your code before uploading ;) [13:05] DktrKranz: hah. i can verify that. =p [13:05] you didn't add anything did you? [13:05] * hyperair is lazy to check [13:05] hehe, joking :P [13:05] =p [13:06] ha ha there's an rc bug already [13:08] My debdiff got sponsored into karmic! [13:09] Laney: that was before he sponsored it. and i can't reproduce it [13:09] i should probably ask for more information [13:09] downgrade it and set the tag then [13:09] you shouldn't leave rc bugs alone, looks bad [13:10] okay [13:10] er [13:10] what tag? [13:10] unreproducible [13:10] ah [13:11] that's hardly grave anyway even if it were a real bug [13:11] hyperair: ask him to reproduce with recent gnome, that could help [13:11] one part of the package doesn't work [13:18] Laney: what should i set the severity to? [13:18] important a bug which has a major effect on the usability of a package, without rendering it completely unusable to everyone. [13:18] sounds right to me [13:18] ok [13:21] * ejat pokes hyperair [13:21] * hyperair pokes ejat back [13:22] hmm how do i send commands to control@bugs.debian.org in the same email as some other text? [13:22] do i indent the control commands or waht? [13:22] * hyperair finds the debian bts confusing and unintuitive [13:22] cc control [13:22] put your commands at the top [13:22] then "thanks" [13:23] then your reply [13:23] aah [13:23] okay === Tonio__ is now known as Tonio_ === jcfp is now known as Guest65348 === Guest65348 is now known as jcfp` === jcfp` is now known as jcfp === ghostcube_ is now known as ghostcube === porthose|afk is now known as porthose [15:29] anyone able to look at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libmixlib-config-ruby/+bug/420674 and https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chef/+bug/424576 and sponsor for sync (mixlib) and upload (chef) ? [15:29] Launchpad bug 420674 in libmixlib-config-ruby "Update libmixlib-config-ruby to new upstream version 1.0.12" [Undecided,New] === sbasuita_ is now known as sbasuita [16:11] Whoo-hoo! Tahoe-LAFS is in the Karmic queue. As soon as someone archives it and it becomes apt-gettable, I will ask Tahoe-LAFS users to test it out in Karmic. [16:12] Okay off to my day job -- I'll lurk on this channel. === highvolt1ge is now known as highvoltage === cr3_ is now known as cr3 [17:02] is there a handy script to send an ubuntu bug to debian? [17:04] forward a bug or a patch? [17:04] I've got the reverse, I wonder if run it backwards through python it will do what you want [17:09] hm, what package is missing when a tcl script fails with "can't find package Tk". I installed tk8.5 but this made no difference [17:18] via the control file, is there a way to specify that a package should be built with g++4.2 rather than g++4.3? Since I'm guessing g++ is getting pulled in by default from one of my build depends [17:21] or do I have to patch the build system to called g++4.2 rather than g++ and just have g++4.2 as a build dependancy [17:22] I'm trying to follow the steps on [https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GnuPrivacyGuardHowto]. This is what I did: http://pastebin.com/m77e749c3. Anybody know the problem? [17:22] Thanks in advance. [17:23] ubuntu_giant: just keep doing work [17:23] eventually, it will complete once enough entropy is gathered (I don't know the exact details) [17:24] So I just ignore what it says and wait? [17:24] Okay, I see output now. Thanks. :) [17:24] well, in theory you need to follow what it says === mdomsch is now known as mdomsch_linuxcon [17:34] DaveMorris: both, you need to add g++-4.3 to build-depends to get it installed and make sure that g++-4.3 is used (check if you can set an environment variable to the c++ compiler to be used else you need to patch) [17:34] thanks geser [17:35] don't remember right now if it was CPP or CXX which you need to set to g++-4.3 (depends also on the build system to honour it) === Sp4rKy_ is now known as Sp4rKy [18:40] hello....have a question. I'm interesting in bugfixing for Ubuntu, and I'm a Windows (C#) developer during the day, but I'm learning Python and already familiar with programming concepts. How would I go about getting the source of an application, changing it, building and testing it? [18:42] phreestyle-work - you could perhaps start by taking a look at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/ :) [18:43] well, I tried to packaging at one time, but it was too much to handle at once....and from what I've read, MOTU is basically just packaging, but I was directed here from #ubuntu-devel [18:49] get-modify-build cycle is described here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/HowToFix [18:51] randomaction: why does that page go straight from "before fixing a bug, make sure you can replicate it", to "Here's an example of how to create a patch"? It's all the stuff between those two sections is what I need to know [18:53] ok, nevermind, I just found the part about apt-get source [18:54] phreestyle-work, look at the 'Generating a patch' section in that page [18:54] right, the "Generating the patch" section walks you through downloading source, appending the changelog, building etc. [18:55] yea, sorry, I read the first line and thought it was already trying to tell me how to change the package [18:56] Hello. I have uploaded my first ubuntu package in REVU about a month ago: http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/p/polygraph . No one has reviewed it since then. Is this a proper place to ask for REVU package review? [18:57] dkurochkin, yes. I can a look later on [18:57] How long will you be connected ? [18:57] (just in case _I have questions) [18:59] Thanks! I am in russia, so I will go to bed soon. Feel free to send comments and questions to my email address from debian/control. [19:00] I'll comment in review then === DktrKranz2 is now known as DktrKranz [19:11] dkurochkin, this is a quite huge package (3,5Mb). Isn't it possible to make several binary packages? [19:11] better said: doses it make sense to do several packages [19:21] Where does one look to see past requests for removal in Debian? [19:22] requests or actual removals? [19:22] actual ones [19:22] just to know the reason(s) [19:23] loic-m, you can see it in the package page in launchpad [19:23] thanks fabrice_sp, I'll have a look [19:24] loic-m, which package? [19:24] slim (just trying to answer a port in -devel-discuss [19:24] in debian.. [19:24] ftp-master.d.o/removals.txt [19:24] afaik [19:25] this is what you ahve in launchpad: Deleted in karmic-release (Reason: (From Debian) RoM; unmaintained) [19:25] so can I pretty much take any packages that FTBFS and fix them, or is there a priority to them? [19:25] yes, indeed [19:26] i got a new maintainer/uplaod in August, that's what happened, and wasn't synced since past DIF [19:26] Is there a possibility to get it back in Karmic (since the package was in Jaunty, it would be preventing a regression) [19:27] just apt-get dist-upgraded my kvm jaunty to karmic, no apparent issues [19:27] that is good news [19:27] Your account 'directhex' has just been created in the central LDAP [19:27] database of the Debian project. [19:27] directhex: congrats [19:28] :D [19:28] sign my key pls [19:29] come to oxford! [19:29] hmmmmmmm [19:30] I'll be at LRL ¬_¬ [19:31] I will be at Ohio Linux Fest [19:31] this weekend actually [19:35] i think i'm in san antonio during LRL [19:35] sharms: there is no priority in FTBFS fixing, you may fix any package you want [19:38] I usually check with popcon, just to see if there is at least one user :-) [19:47] One question: the general consensus is not to add a patch system to a package if Debian does not have one? [19:47] yes, as you easily end with patch applied directly and patches applied through the patch system [19:57] thanks geser [20:13] if I fix a FTBFS what should I tag it with [20:13] or do we still do that === yofel_ is now known as yofel [20:33] I don't know of any tagging [20:38] sharms: Attach the patch, and subscribe the correct sponsorship team. [20:56] hi all [20:58] there's a problem with trac in karmic. the debian/rules file tries to chmod a file in debian/trac/usr/lib/... , but the file is in debian/usr/local/lib . can anybody help? see http://launchpadlibrarian.net/32316783/buildlog_ubuntu-karmic-i386.trac_0.11.5-2_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz [20:59] if someone gets a chance can a motu review https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cryptonit/+bug/435477 [20:59] Launchpad bug 435477 in cryptonit "Fix FTBFS" [Undecided,New] [21:02] DktrKranz: can you update stani's FFe bug (#434972) with build logs and whatever else is needed and sync it from Debian unstable? [21:04] POX: I haven't Ubuntu box hany ATM, I can build it in a pbuilder, though [21:04] *handy [21:04] heh, /me didn't think he's that good in stealing Ubuntu developers [21:05] pochu uses Debian these dats, same for DktrKranz.... [21:05] s/dats/days [21:06] ScottK: you're next ;) [21:06] how's your NM process, btw [21:08] directhex: Congrats. [21:08] 8D [21:09] hey directhex! :) [21:09] * jpds pinches directhex's ear and forces him in #ubuntu-uk [21:09] more channels? :o [21:17] directhex: go'an [21:18] Daviey: He has? [21:18] hmm.. ETOOMANYCHANNELS fail [21:23] sharms, do not assign the bug to MOTU Reviewers Team, subscribe Universe sponsors [21:23] sharms: on a quick look (don't have time right now for more) it looks good, but as fabrice_sp said [21:24] thanks, appreciate it [21:24] else your bug don't get reviewed by anyone [21:25] hi all [21:25] hi mruiz [21:25] what is the difference between debian/control and debian/control.in ? [21:25] sharms, not assign [21:25] :-) [21:25] fabrice_sp, hello! [21:26] sharms, on the right, you have the Subscribe someone else link [21:26] haha ok got it [21:26] :-) [21:27] that's funny: I downloaded cryptonit yesterday, but didn't had time to work on it :) [21:27] thanks for you contribution [21:27] thanks for the help with the process, a bit rusty [21:27] that's fine now ;-) [21:28] mruiz: control.in is a template to generate control, you should find there some placeholders [21:28] some packages use it to generate the correct build-depends on e.g. cdbs or put in the list of uploaders [21:31] geser, then ... what should I modify? [21:32] both to be on the safe side [21:35] :D [21:35] do I have to do anything special to request a sync now after feature freeze? [21:35] it's for a package with security updates [21:36] I'm reading the FFe process wiki page [21:36] since it's a sync, do I need an actual diff [21:37] micahg: it depends on the other changes: if it's a just a patch applied then a normal sync request is enough [21:37] or is a link to the securtiy fixes enoug? [21:37] no [21:37] it's a version bump [21:37] with bugfixes as well [21:38] I'm getting this error during a build "`Depends' field, reference to `epiphany-webkit': error in version: version string is empty" [21:38] then you need to check if it's only a bug fix release -> sync request as normal (noting that's it's only a bug fix release would be helpful) [21:38] else you need a FFe [21:38] geser: only bug fix (i.e. minor revision)? [21:39] depends on the upstream, some are only bug fixes others not [21:40] seems like they added one thing as well [21:40] look at the changelog from upstream [21:40] ok [21:41] geser: just says new upstream relase [21:41] how are spaces been escaped in an install file properly ? [21:41] micahg: :( then you need to look at the diff between the new versions [21:45] geser: is there a debian site that'll show the diffs between versions like LP? [21:46] not that I know of [21:53] thanks geser, I'll have to come back when I have more time === ajmitch_ is now known as ajmitch [22:29] MOTU team, thanks for your packaging help yesterday. I need one more bit of packaging advice [22:29] I've created a package infrastructure for a program which has never been packaged for Debian/Ubuntu before, but I'm stuck on one bit [22:30] The package includes a kernel module for Jaunty. this was fine until I moved it into Launchpad, now it cannot build [22:32] I'm guessing I need to split the kernel module bit out somehow, right? [22:33] i produced some .deb files by apt-get source; applying some changes and then making it; the names however is a bit off - it should be package-7:4.3.5..suff...deb; what i got was package-4.3.5..stuff...deb; which basicly has the effect of making the 'bad' one 'newer'; can i simply rename my file to what it is 'supposed' to be and have everything work? [22:42] tisepti: Unlikely. [22:42] tisepti: The version is probably determined by debian/changelog. [22:45] Daraxus: hmm - the changelog this was generated from is long gone; i think ill just add (= version) dependencies on the other things [22:45] or regenerate - though that would be a bit difficult at this point [22:49] Er, I don't think a .deb will build without a changelog. [22:50] The command "dch -i" is used to update the changelog. It might also generate one for you if it doesn't exist. [22:52] There's a --create option for that. [22:53] er no - the .deb was created; and the sources folder was deleted a bit ago [22:55] im not sure if this channel is even interested but its the 9.04 version of libmagick (and friends); if compiled with openMP (which they are in the repo) there are cases where you can get a deadlock; i think its resolved in 9.10; this simply redoes the package without openMP === foursixnine is now known as santiago-ve [23:38] im recompiling the libmagic 9.04 libraries with different options; however the produced .deb files are all of the form NAME_6.4.5.4...3.2; from the repository however the files are NAME_7:6.4.5.4...; that should just be part of the debian/changelog? === mtrudel_ is now known as cyphermox [23:39] i duplicated an older changelog entry only altering the ..3.1 to ..3.2 === irvingpop_ is now known as irvingpop [23:46] how is the epoch set [23:48] ( . Y . ) [23:50] nicklas_: please don't, that is unnecessary and offensive to many [23:50] sorry :-P just bored
