ajmitchdelete all?00:04
dtchen_I'm envious00:04
dtchen_1 - 100 of 1262600:04
ajmitchquick, file more bugs for jdong!00:04
jdonghahaha00:04
jdongdon't do that!00:04
jdongand I SWEAR clearing involved reading and taking action ;-)00:05

cody-somerville11037 bugmails here : (00:06
ajmitchso the aim is for lucid to have less bugs open than karmic did at release :)00:07
dtchen_I'm not even going that route00:08
ajmitchnot even for audio bugs?00:08
dtchen_If we can get 10.04 out the door with fewer known issues, I'll be happy00:08
dtchen_yeah, I've long since stopped caring about open bugs. It seems like a get about six hundred a day.00:09
dtchen_like I get*00:09
ajmitcheven the bug stats page that I remember hasn't been updated since april00:09
ajmitchat the rate it's taking me to fix a bug in a single package, I expect to fix 5 bugs by lucid release00:10
dtchen_I'm actually blocked on upstream for 2 significant annoyances :/00:11
ajmitchmore HDA stuff?00:11
dtchen_nope, PA00:11
dtchen_it's getting close to F12 release, though, so I suppose that's understandable00:11
ajmitchthe only hardware issues I have to complain about are only suspend/hibernate/resume related now, and they mostly just work00:12
ajmitchsound is working nicely thanks to you & alsa upstream00:13
dtchen_for lucid, we'll probably have crack-of-the-day builds for alsa-driver stable00:13
ajmitchin a snapshot package in main?00:14
dtchen_nope, universe for src:linux-backports-modules-2.6.3x -> bin:linux-backports-modules-alsa-2.6.3x-yy-generic00:15
ajmitchmakes sense00:15
ajmitchmore visible than a PPA00:15
dtchen_well, I suppose it would still be src:main -> universe:bin00:15
ajmitchdo you think you'll update them post-release in lucid-updates?00:15
dtchen_yes, I hope so00:16
dtchen_smb just applied the wifi updates from 2.6.32-rc6 for karmic-proposed00:16
ajmitch3 years of driver backports for desktops00:16
dtchen_I utterly fail at analogy ordering, apparently. src:main -> bin:universe00:17
* ajmitch understood it still :)00:17
ajmitchI know that there'll be a large number of new packages that people want to get in through REVU again, if we can afford to carry them00:20
ajmitchbut that's something for those who go to UDS to care about00:21
dtchen_I need more hours in a day00:23
ajmitchdon't we all?00:24
dtchen_quilt pop -a00:24
dtchen_bah00:24
ajmitchquilt refresh00:24
TheMusoI only care about revu these days if there is a package I want to get into main, or for studio, where there is a group of us who maintain it.00:39
ScottKajmitch: How's boost going?00:45
ajmitch1.40 built for lucid in my PPA, after I stripped the python 2.5 stuff00:46
ajmitch1.38 should get merged for lucid if we're keeping it, I haven't done it yet00:47
ajmitchbut it works for karmic once I put some more detail in the changelog00:47
ajmitchof course there's now a possibility it could be fixed in python rather than just in boost00:48

serialorderi am looking at the diff between a denian and ubuntu package and one of the few differences I see is ubuntu has DH_VERBOSE := 1 DH_OPTIONS += --with=quilt while debian does not in debian/rules01:04
serialorderI am wondering if that is something I should keep or not?01:04
ScottKAre there patches applied in the Ubuntu version?01:04
=== yofel_ is now known as yofel
serialorderscottk, yes there is one patch applied in the ubuntu version that is not applied in the debian version and there are two that are applied in both01:09
ScottKI'd keep it then01:10
serialorderwhould you mind explaining whay its there/what its doing?01:11
serialorderoh I think i see the difference the ubuntu version has %:  dh $@   while the debian version has %:  dh  --with=quilt $@  so it looks like they just specify it in different places01:17
ajmitchminimise the difference from debian then01:18
ScottKAgreed01:18
serialorderthat leaves only one difference in debian/rules which are the lines DH_VERBOSE := 1  and export DH_VERBOSE how important is it to keep that?01:21
ScottKDrop it.01:22
serialorderdropped! =)01:23
serialorderanyone have a link to what the different versions for a watchfile mean? I asked google but it has failed me01:27
nhandlerkirkland: Is there an argument you can pass to testdrive to have it not use virtualbox?01:28
RAOFserialorder: There's version 3, which is the one that's current, and works.  There are apparently two other versions, 1 & 2, but I've never encountered one of them in the wild, and I'm not sure they actually work.01:28
serialorderRAOF, ok maybe thats why google 'failed' =) use version 3 got it01:28
mmmiiikkkeeeHi, what is the point of this guide: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot  if pbuilder already sets up a chroot enviroment for when it builds a package? does pbuilder use that chroot env or makes a different one? should i be running pbuilder in the original chroot enveriment(no?)? how do all these pieces work together?01:31
serialorderi take it that if debian/control has a launchpad bzr and the debian version has a debian git I should keep the launchapd bzr ?01:33
RAOFIf that's where it's being maintained, yes.01:35
kirklandnhandler: you would rather it use kvm, or what?01:35
nhandlerkirkland: Yeah, is there a way to specify if it should use kvm or virtualbox?01:36
kirklandnhandler: it should use kvm by default, if you can use it01:38
kirklandnhandler: if kvm-ok; then01:38
kirkland        VIRT="kvm"01:38
kirklandnhandler: does kvm-ok return non-zero?01:38
serialorderRAOF,  it looks like it is being maintained in both places01:39
serialorderalso should I do the merge with bzr or like i usually do with filing a bug and attaching a debdiff?01:39
RAOFIs it being maintained _in Ubuntu_ at the launchpad address?  It sounds like the answer is 'yes, so yeah, that's what should be in VCS-Bzr.01:40
serialorderRAOF, yes it is ok01:41
serialorderthanks01:41
RAOFDoing the merge in bzr may be good; that depends in part on how familiar you are with bzr and how familiar your sponsor is with bzr.01:41
serialorderI guess the reason I ask is that from what I understand/have heard soon all packages are going to have a bzr trunk in launchpad so i figured figuring out how to do a merge that way might be important01:43
serialorderbut it sounds like i can/should just do it the 'normal' way01:44

hedkandihello I'd like to put a page onto the ubuntu wiki. How would I do this?01:51
hedkandithe page I'm interested in is marked "immutable" which means it's not a wiki01:52
hedkandithe principle of wiki is that anyone can come along and edit it01:52
hedkandiso I really don't see that it should be called a wiki at all.01:52

nhandlerkirkland: I just did a quick reboot (it didn't register my last one), and that got it using kvm. It would be nice to add a flag/config option to allow users to specify whether kvm/virtualbox should be used for a certain ISO01:54
kirklandnhandler: sure thing01:55
kirklandnhandler: i'll add that now01:55
nhandlerYou rock kirkland. I might need to start doing some ISO testing now that I have an easy way to run the ISOs01:56
kirklandnhandler: ;-)  thanks man01:56
kirklandnhandler: glad to be of help01:56
kirklandnhandler: did this remove a barrier of some kind for you?  or just made it easier?01:57
nhandlerkirkland: It made it easy and fast enough for me to be able to get and run an ISO that I would be up for doing some real ISO testing.02:01

rippsEzraR: 00list determines what's to be patched at build time, I'm just trying to determine if there is indeed something wrong with the patches.16:38
EzraRhttp://pastebin.com/d4d0e40b716:39
EzraRos debuild suposed to go through the build targets after clean?16:40
EzraRis16:40
rippsEzraR: I don't know... it should be working. This wasn't built with pbuilder, It's hard to make sure you have an isolated environment unless your running from pristine environment like pbuilder...16:44
EzraRi am building with pbuilder16:45
EzraRyou asked for my debuild output16:45
hyperairit's the same.16:46
rippsEzraR: sorry, pbuilder runs debuild too.16:46
hyperairdebuild calls dpkg-buildpackage. pbuilder calls dpkg-source which calls dpkg-buildpackage16:46
hyperairno, i don't think pbuilder runs debuild16:46
rippshyperair: your right, it runs dpkg-buildpackage within an isolated environment16:47
EzraRi was under the impression you used debuild and then built in pbuilder using the .dsc from debuild16:47
hyperairdebuild calls dpkg-buildpackage under almost all circumstances16:48
hyperairexceptions being errors16:49
hyperaire.g. unsatisfied build deps16:49
rippsEzraR: no, you shouldn't need to ever install any -dev packages, just setup a package, and just run `pdebuild` and it will automatically import the source and the debian/ packaging into pbuilder to build it for you.16:49
EzraRdoes it make a diff if i use dbuild -S16:49
hyperairdebuild -S creates dscs, debuild -b builds binaries (i think dscs are also created, but not sure)16:49
rippsEzraR: you should only create dsc's when your sure that the package will actually build correctly. pbuilder is meant for testing before you upload to a ppa or repository. Also, pbuilder will output in successfully built packages into /var/cache/pbuilder/result/16:51
EzraRwell i took out all the patches from 00list and built it and still get the bug, so I can safely say it has nothing to do with the patches right?16:52
rippsEzraR: you need the include the patches, otherwise the package doesn't build16:54
EzraRi left the include dpatch.make, i just took out all patches from 00list16:55
rippsEzraR: I'm saying that was unnecessary16:56
EzraRripps: unnecessary?16:57
rippsEvery time I run pdebuild, full 00list and empty 00list, I still had pbuilder build successfully...16:57
EzraRripps: the bug im trying to fix is not if it builds or not :)16:57
rippsEzraR: what exactly is the bug?16:58
EzraRripps: i was confused earlier and was thinking debuild -S should go through the build targets of the rules file...16:58
EzraRripps: the bug is it doesnt install a gw6c.conf into /etc/gw6c or anywhere for that matter16:59
EzraRripps: sounds like a real easy fix right :)16:59
rippsEzraR: okay... let me look around the rules files a bit...17:00
EzraRlook in tspc-advanced/Makefile17:01
=== keylocker is now known as leleobhz
rippsEzraR: I understand the problem, it's suppose install a conf in /etc, but isn't. The easist solution would be copy the sample conf in the correct directory at build time...17:07
EzraRripp: i tried that but failed17:11
EzraRripps: tspc-advanced/conf/Makefile is where the sample conf is generated17:12
rippsEzraR: yeah, it might be as simple as copying that conf.sample into debian/tmp/etc/gw6c/gw6c.conf17:13
EzraRat line 38 in17:17
EzraR tspc-advanced/conf/Makefile i added a cp line but it came out wrong17:17
EzraRit didnt get the output from the sed cmd17:18
EzraRthat was the first thing I tried when fixing this17:18
rippsEzraR: I'm testing some ideas, I'll let you know if any pan out17:24
rippsEzraR: Okay, I think I figured it out, just add `17:25
ripps`cp tspc-advanced/conf/gw6c.conf.sample debian/gw6c/etc/gw6c/gw6c.conf` to the end of install: section17:25

fabrice_spjdong, do you think that if it's only on upgrade, it's worth a SRU?19:05
fabrice_spEzraR, IIRC, that's what I saw in the debian bug report19:06
jdongfabrice_sp: what is the SRU? Same fix as above? Why does it work? Why does it only happen on upgrades?19:06
fabrice_spjdong, yes: the ugly 'copy the binary to $HOME/.eagle' fix19:07
fabrice_spno idea why it fails for upgrade only (new install don't have that file in home)19:07
jdongand by "fresh install" in the bug comment, you mean wipe the entire system and then install, right?19:08
fabrice_spno :-D19:08
jdongnot apt-get remove {{--purge}} and reinstall, right?19:08
jdongwhat?19:08
jdongnow this is making less sense19:08
fabrice_spI think it's apt-get purge / install19:09

fabrice_spI wasn't able to reproduce the problem19:09
jdongbased on this information... what I lack right now is a coherent explanation of why this bug occurs19:09
jdongand I'm much more reluctant about the SRU's proposed fix19:09
fabrice_spjdong, exactly. And Debian didn't really gave an explanation about that19:09

jdongbut given that eagle is not exactly telepathy or Xorg in urgency19:11
jdongI'd say let's  try to come up with a more satisfactory explanation of why it's broken19:11
jdongbefore attempting to shove through silly one-liner hacks when we still don't agree what the symptoms are yet :)19:11
