| LucidFox | Ugh, Compiz in Karmic is seriously unstable. | 05:09 |
|---|---|---|
| lifeless | as compared to what ? :) | 05:09 |
| LucidFox | Jaunty. | 05:09 |
| LucidFox | It keeps crashing. | 05:09 |
| LucidFox | Guess what, X crashed. May be the NVIDIA drivers... | 05:12 |
| StevenK | LucidFox: Nvidia drivers + compiz + Karmic for me has been solid ? | 05:13 |
| LucidFox | Not for me. | 05:14 |
| StevenK | File a bug with a backtrace from compiz, if one is obtainable? | 05:14 |
| fabrice_sp_ | hmm, surelly a dumb question, but why MOTU can't upload sync from Debian to the archive as a normal package? | 05:17 |
| StevenK | fabrice_sp_: Because Ubuntu doesn't have a distribution called 'unstable' | 05:18 |
| lifeless | StevenK: well, you can override that in genchanges | 05:18 |
| StevenK | Ssshh! | 05:18 |
| lifeless | fabrice_sp_: because, over-all, we find it easier this way :) | 05:19 |
| lifeless | fabrice_sp_: there are a number of autoamted changes we make to syncs | 05:19 |
| lifeless | like the X-Original-blah fields | 05:19 |
| lifeless | so a sync really means 'make only the expected programmatic changes' | 05:19 |
| fabrice_sp_ | Ok, but they could be made by a script also. I was just trying to remove some work from our lovelly archive admin :-) | 05:20 |
| fabrice_sp_ | admins | 05:20 |
| lifeless | they have a script ;) | 05:20 |

| directhex | no. a sync re-uses the source package from debian | 08:38 |
| fcuk112 | you mean using uscan -verbose? what if it can't find anything? should i be editing something to point to the correct location? | 08:41 |

| directhex | i think the PPA's use pbuilder? i think? | 12:35 |
| nicoInattendu | mok0 : Do I attach the verification-needed tag to both bugs ? | 12:37 |
| geser | sbuild (probably a modified version) | 12:38 |
| LucidFox | Both the PPA and Ubuntu archive builders use sbuild. | 12:39 |
| LucidFox | I think they even use the same build servers, no? | 12:39 |
| tsimpson | servers can either be for PPA use or for distro use | 12:39 |
| geser | don't know as PPA uses virtualised buildds while the official buildds use non-virtualised ones | 12:40 |
| tsimpson | but they can be changed between those | 12:40 |
| directhex | s' all virtualized anyway, so it hardly makes a difference | 12:40 |

| goshawk | yes | 13:34 |
| goshawk | tsimpson: yes | 13:35 |
| tsimpson | well /bin/sh is giving the error, so it's running in a shell for some reason | 13:35 |
| tsimpson | "ifeq ($(DEB_HOST_ARCH),amd64)" should work | 13:36 |
| goshawk | so just substitute BUILD with HOST | 13:37 |
| goshawk | nope, same thing | 13:37 |
| tsimpson | well I just copied that from another makefile | 13:37 |
| goshawk | ifeq (amd64,amd64) | 13:37 |
| goshawk | /bin/sh: Syntax error: word unexpected (expecting ")") | 13:37 |
| tsimpson | it should not be running in /bin/sh though, for some reason it is | 13:38 |
| goshawk | -.- | 13:38 |
| tsimpson | what if you just try "make -f debian/rules", does that give the same error? | 13:38 |

| dennis_ | hi@all | 16:49 |
| dennis_ | I have a question: How do I package a program wich lib (I am packaging it too) needs the program too? | 16:52 |
| geser | are the programm and the library two different sources? | 16:53 |
| dennis_ | yes | 16:53 |
| geser | then package the library first and let the programm build-depend on the -dev package from that library | 16:54 |
| dennis_ | but thats the problem the library needs the program to compile | 16:56 |
| dennis_ | and the program the library^^ | 16:56 |
| geser | oh | 16:57 |
| dennis_ | but they are two sources but one upstream | 16:57 |
| geser | how does upstream solve this bootstraping problem? | 16:57 |
| dennis_ | I think he has his folders on his pc and so his library finds the program source | 16:58 |
| dennis_ | folder structure | 16:58 |
| AnAnt | wierd could it be that dh_install -Xstring- could be not working right in non-i386 archs ? | 17:00 |
| geser | dennis_: does the lib need the source files from the program or the compiled program itself? | 17:00 |
| dennis_ | geser, it needs the program source code | 17:01 |
| dennis_ | geser, how do I package only the source code, is this possible? So maybe the lib could depend on this? | 17:03 |
| geser | that gets tricky and I don't have currently a good idea how to get it done | 17:07 |
| dennis_ | geser, ok thanks. Good that I am not the only one who is wondering about this ;-) | 17:09 |

| yml | good evening I am in the process of creating a package of uWSGI and I am a bit stuck the plan to to create it and upload it to launchpad PPA. | 22:30 |
| yml | but for now I am stuck at the creation step | 22:31 |
| yml | I am following this doc : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/Complete | 22:31 |
| yml | I think I have done more or less all the paperwork | 22:32 |
| yml | I am now at the modification of the rules | 22:32 |
| yml | I have created a branch where I have added the debian directory | 22:34 |
| yml | all this is stored here : http://bitbucket.org/yml/uwsgi/src/tip/ | 22:35 |
| yml | it would be amazing if someone could give me a hand | 22:35 |
| Laney | aw | 22:40 |
| yml | Laney: is that for me ? | 22:41 |
| Laney | oh no sorry I didn't even read what you said | 22:41 |
| Laney | I was 'aw'ing at the latest sound rants | 22:41 |
| Laney | berating contributors is bad bad form | 22:41 |
| * Laney hugs dtchen_ | 22:41 | |
| * Laney reads what yml has to say | 22:42 | |
| yml | Thanks | 22:42 |
| Laney | what's the problem? | 22:42 |
| yml | yes me too because since 9.10 my sound work again | 22:42 |
| yml | Laney: the main problem is in fact I reach the point where I don't know what to do next. | 22:43 |
| yml | I think I would need some hand holding | 22:43 |
| Laney | here's what you should do | 22:43 |
| yml | in order to compile it from source I need to run make -f Makefile.linux.py26 | 22:44 |
| Laney | rm *.ex *.EX rules docs dirs; cp /usr/share/doc/debhelper/examples/rules.tiny rules | 22:45 |
| yml | where I think that I can't make the assumption that python level is 2.6 | 22:45 |
| yml | Laney: http://bitbucket.org/yml/uwsgi/src/tip/debian/ | 22:45 |
| Laney | yep | 22:45 |
| yml | here it is where I stand | 22:45 |
| Laney | I saw that | 22:45 |
| Laney | dh_make generates a load of stuff you don't want | 22:46 |
| yml | I have already removed the one that I am sure I don't want | 22:46 |

| Laney | good | 22:48 |
| yml | this sounds like I am not completely off | 22:49 |
| Laney | so the first thing to do is to set up the build-depends and depends in the control file | 22:49 |
| yml | Laney: you are in the rules file, right ? | 22:49 |
| Laney | I'm talking about the control file | 22:50 |
| Laney | http://www.debian.org/doc/maint-guide/ch-dreq.en.html#s-control | 22:50 |
| Laney | read this | 22:50 |
| yml | Laney: I have added this in control : Depends: python, libxml2 | 22:52 |
| Laney | you need to understand more clearly what to put here | 22:55 |
| Laney | *Build*-depends is very very important to get right first of all | 22:55 |
| Laney | but I'm going to bed, maybe someone else can help you | 22:55 |
| Laney | nn | 22:55 |
| yml | Laney: thanks | 22:56 |
| yml | I will hang around here and see if someone can help me | 22:56 |
