macoO_o00:10
macothats an interesting conversation to walk in on00:11
mneptokmaco: if i had a nickel ...00:12
jdongmaco: considering that it's mneptok, you could've walked in on far worse....00:13
jdong*hides*00:13
macojdong: thats probably true00:14
jdongjust like with xinetd services, knock and wait a couple seconds before entering?00:15
jdong(heh actually launchd on the iPhone is the worst at playing this game)00:15
Amaranthwow my notify-osd just went into a debug mode or something00:15
jdongthe first time you SSH into an iPhone it literally spends a minute generating SSH host keys.00:16
Amarantheverything was all framed out and at the top it said "normal - report incorrect urgency?"00:16
Amaranthoh, maybe a lucid thing00:16
dtchen_okay, I know I'm dense, but do we officially document how to navigate to browseable online source for source packages?00:18
dtchen_I'm going through similar pain to fix an alsa bug in openSUSE 11.2, and uh, no documentation is *bad*00:19
dtchen_maybe https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DistributedDevelopment/Documentation/GettingTheSource ?00:20
macothere's browsable online source?00:20
macoyou mean aside from the handful of packages in bzr?00:20
dtchen_maco: that's very much what I'm hoping00:20
dtchen_otherwise it's going to be a very long night :/00:21
dtchen_...I think this is one stellar argument for having all source, not just /debian, in bzr00:22
dtchen_err, in bzr branches on LP00:22
macoagreed00:22
wgrantmaco: All packages are available in bzr now.00:34
macowgrant: i thought it was a few thousand?00:35
wgrantmaco: The entire archive (except perhaps for a few that failed) has been imported.00:35
macowith full source, not just debian/?00:36
wgrantCorrect.00:36
dtchen_wgrant: code.launchpad.net/foo ?00:38
dtchen_(where foo is the source package name)00:38
macowouldnt it be /ubuntu/+source/foo?00:39
dtchen_maco: doesn't seem to be a loggerhead link anywhere00:39
maco*shrug*00:39
wgrantdtchen_: code.launchpad.net/ubuntu/SERIES/+source/PACKAGE00:40
wgrantdtchen_: Or drop the SERIES/ to get a list of all.00:40
dtchen_man, either I fail, or I can't get them for linux, alsa-*, pulseaudio -- probably because none of them have upstream series set?00:41
dtchen_e.g., I can see eglibc's fine00:41
wgrantThat's not necessary.00:41
* wgrant checks.00:41
ccheney`dtchen_: coming to UDS? :)00:42
dtchen_ccheney`: no.00:42
ccheney`dtchen_: oh :(00:42
wgrantdtchen_: you appear to be cursed in your package selection.00:43
dtchen_yeah, go figure.00:43
jdongmaybe dumb question00:47
jdongbut how do you get an orig.tar.gz+diff.gz out of a LP branched bzr package?00:47
jdongthat's the last piece of the bzr-kept-packages thing that I don't understand00:48
macoi think, theoretically, youre not sposed to need those00:50
jdongerrr00:50
jdongsuppose I want to make a change to znc then upload it back.00:50
jdongwhat would be the workflow?00:50
macouhhh i guess one of those bzr/deb commands would be necessary...00:51
jdongnaturally, bzr branch lp:ubuntu/lucid/znc00:52
macobranch, change, debcommit, push to somewhere....?00:52
jdongthen cd into znc and edit whatever I want.00:52
macoi dont think lp will auto-build it when you debcommit & push though00:52
jdongright00:52
jdongit seems like you need to dput *something*00:52
macois james_w in a US timezone yet?00:53
jdongdebcommit just performs a bzr commit using debian/changelog00:53
jdongand I just tried bzr builddeb -S and it generated one native znc debian package00:54
macoright but it makes it so that when you push that branch to lp, it is automatically marked as being with that bug00:54
ionWhen i do bzr branch lp:ubuntu/lucid/foo, i don’t get a branch for the original tarball and the pristine-tar, data, right?00:56
jdongion: from what I can see you only get the branch representing the fully unpacked debian source package.00:56
jdongthe history seems to encode Debian changes as merges00:57
jdongwhich is why I asked if there were some bzr-builddeb magic for reconstructing pristine-tar00:57
ccheney`maco: iirc i heard you recently became a motu?00:58
macoccheney`: aye, yesterday00:58
ccheney`maco: congratulations :)00:59
macoccheney`: thanks :)00:59
ionI wish bzr allowed multiple branches in a single repository in a single directory with a single working tree.00:59
* ccheney` hopes we have a powermgmt session at UDS, karmic seemed to be a bad regression :-\01:00
ionOne could get the upstream, debian, ubuntu and pristine-tar branches with a single ‘bzr get lp:ubuntu/lucid/foo’ command.01:00
jdongccheney`: what nonsense! Karmic dims my screen if I don't touch my mouse in 2 seconds!01:01
jdong;-)01:01
ccheney`jdong: heh, and mine takes 10s+ to wake up now01:01
ccheney`if it does decide to wakeup at all01:01
jdonghaha ouch01:02
jdongmy wakeup is still okay01:02
jdongjust networking literally takes 2 orders of magnitude longer to come up compared to its stock OS.01:02
ccheney`nice01:03
macojdong: which will remain unnamed? :P01:03
ajmitchccheney`: 5 minutes to wake up from hibernate isn't bad, is it?01:03
ccheney`ajmitch: hahaha01:03
ajmitchon a good day01:03
ccheney`ajmitch: if you have a slow drive i suppose01:03
jdongmaco: yup :)01:03
ccheney`10-20s from sleep though is pretty slow01:03
ajmitchyeah I think it's a 5400 RPM drive01:03
jdongajmitch: I couldn't tell if you were being sarcastic!01:03
ajmitchI usually just suspend & it wakes up from that pretty fast01:04
jdongheh even Win2k got out of hibernate in 30-ish seconds01:04
ajmitchmy problem is more the occasional severe slowdown once woken up01:04
ajmitchI can't remember the bug #01:04
jdongah01:04
macoccheney`: 10-20s for resume from s2ram sounds like my laptop back on hardy01:05
jdongthe loveliness of swsusp sending everything to  swap01:05
ccheney`assuming you have a swap partition and less than 4GB of ram hibernate doesn't really need to take more than 1min to work01:05
macoccheney`: also sounds like a cold boot on jaunty (but not on karmic)01:05
* ajmitch has a swap partition & 4GB of RAM01:05
ccheney`maco: heh, yea mine was working fine on jaunty not sure what happened with karmic01:05
macoi think i had a 15s boot on hardy. 35s on karmic (shouldnt say this too loud in front of ke yb uk, eh?)01:06
* ccheney` hasn't tested to see how slow hibernate is for him, but his drive does ~ 100MB/s with hdparm test01:06
ccheney`maco: there is a ppa that is supposed to help a large amount01:06
ccheney`maco: haven't tested it myself, but yea jaunty->karmic boot did get noticably slower with stock setup01:06
macoi think thats hat the ureadahead sru was for01:07
ajmitchI was pleasantly surprised at how well suspend/resume mostly works though :)01:07
macoi havent rebooted yet though01:07
macohrm i should do laundry so i can pack for uds01:08
ccheney`maco: hmm that is what i should be doing now as well, i blew it off for irc :)01:09
macomy excuse was dinner01:09
macobut i finished eating now01:09
* ccheney` will be driving up tomorrow afternoon, takes ~ 3.5hr by car01:09
* ajmitch would like to be there :)01:10
* jdong loves how maco used ureadahead and sru in the same sentence ;-)01:13
macojdong: what?01:14
macodidnt something like that just happen?01:15
macoor am i very confused?01:15
macoyeah is in -proposed01:16
* ccheney` is done :)01:16
jdongyes it did happen01:16
macothis laundry thing is making me discover i have much better t-shirts than the men's black-t-shirt-with-band-name-on-front ive been wearing01:16
jdongbut that doens't stop me from commenting on that.01:16
jdongI'm quite sure if I SRU'ed Azureus with transmission I'd get into trouble ;-)01:17

jdonglol01:18
jdonghaha speaking of azureus01:18
jdonghad someone else recently bicker to me about the beg screen.01:18
jdongerr that's plural. beg screens.01:19
macobeg screens?01:19
ScottKjdong: Canonical supports putting adverts for their proprietary serverices in the default install, so I can't see how it would be different.01:20
jdongI think the difference is if you say no, they don't tell you how many Canonical employees poured their hearts into it, and that you're a bad person and won't get any christmas gifts from Santa.01:20

ebroderhow is it escalating privileges?02:30
dtchen_not that I see, but there's system-config-printer-udev.02:36
ebroderYeah - it looks like Fedora and/or SUSE (can't tell which) wrote cups-pk-helper, which relatively recent versions of s-c-p can use to escalate themselves02:37

ymlI would be interested to package an new software called uwsgi and to create a PPA20:03
ymlI have read quite some documentation up to now and I have a couple of questions20:03
ymlthe first one is how to integrate this operation in a dvcs workflow ?20:04
KartinkaI have some Questions about DevKit and udev Rules, is here anybody who knows something about them in connection with hiding unmounted partitions20:08
ebroderKartinka: It looks like there isn't. Your best bet may be to send mail to ubuntu-devel-discuss20:09
ebroderKartinka: But in general, it's better etiquette to just ask your question instead of asking to ask20:11
ymluwsgi (the application I would like to debianized is in a mercurial  repository. My idea was to create the debian folder directly inside the repository. Is there anything wrong with this approach ? dh_make refuse to run because the repository is called uwsgi and does not have yet a version.20:21
ymlthe application is available here : http://projects.unbit.it/uwsgi20:21
RAOFyml: Yes and no.  We like to have a clean separation between upstream & the packaging.  This is normally done by taking the upstream tarball and adding a debian directory to the source package only (so it goes in the .diff.gz).20:56
RAOFYou could also do this by having a separate mercurial branch, if hg-buildpackage exists.20:56
RAOF(Which it does)20:57
ymlRAOF: the idea is to contribute the debian  directory to upstream20:57
RAOFWell, we (as in Ubuntu & Debian) really prefer it if upstream _doesn't_ have a debian directory, at least in their releases.20:58
ymlso that it is part of the repository and evolve together20:58
ymlwhere is  this file managed in revision ?20:58
gigabytesyml: the problem is that sometimes debian and ubuntu have different packages and the debian directory can't be the same.20:58
maxbAnd the problem is more that the debian/ directory needs changing outside the package's upstream release cycle20:59
ymlgigabytes: for now it has none  :-)20:59
ymlok I understand the principle21:00
ymlbut I would prefer to be able to use mercurial to manage this file at least locally21:00
RAOFTake a branch of trunk and add the debian directory.21:01
ymlRAOF: I installing hg-buildpackage21:02
RAOFThat's perfectly acceptable.21:02
ScottKyml: You can, just don't include it in the tarball for a release.21:02
ymlthis make sense21:02
ymlfor now I plan to use MQ21:03

Kartinkathere they said i should write my problem here21:26
Kartinkasorry but when everybody said another shit to me what can i do :(21:26
ScottKThey are wrong.21:26
ScottKThere is also an ubuntu-users mailing list.  Maybe more luck there21:26
dtchen_Kartinka: wrong channel, as stated previously.21:29
dtchen_Kartinka: to answer your questions, however, they are not hidden from the system, only from devicekit-disks, which means the partitions won't appear in GNOME21:30
Kartinkacan i ask you, is there any way to hide them completely from the system?21:30
dtchen_Kartinka: as for the syntax, please see /usr/share/doc/udev/writing_udev_rules/index.html21:30
ScottKTime to board.  See you later.21:32
Kartinkamh okay is there any declaration about how to know that i have to use for example KERNEL=="loop*|ram*", GOTO="hide_partitions_end"<--- loop*|ram* in this part and so on?!21:32
Kartinkabecause i would like to understand what i do not only copy and paste cause of that i ask...21:32
dtchen_Kartinka: see the file I referenced.21:32
Kartinkaokay i will take a look about when i switched system! sorry for nerding...^^21:33
Kartinkacause can you give me last answer on the question above21:33
Kartinkacause of hiding them from the whole system is it in any way possible to do or not?21:34
dtchen_Kartinka: yes, of course it's possible21:35

Kartinkadtchen_ can i ask you, in which method is it possible to hide the partitions completely? :/ i hope i distrb you not to much but i found nobody before21:43
dtchen_Kartinka: please, this channel is not appropriate for general support questions.21:43
Kartinkacan i talk to you in query?21:44
