| lfaraone | Hey, my build is failing with "dpkg-shlibdeps: error: no dependency information found for /usr/local/lib/libgtksheet-x11-2.0.so.0 (used by debian/python-gtksheet/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/gtk-2.0/gtksheet/_gtksheetmodule.so).". How can I either A) ignore the error, or B) add deps? | 01:10 |
| ajmitch | first thing would be to fix it so that it doesn't go into /usr/local/lib :) | 01:13 |
| fcuk112 | lfaraone: i had a similar error, i fixed it by adding export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=xxx to my .pbuilderrc. | 01:20 |
| ajmitch | that really doesn't sound like the right fix | 01:20 |
| fcuk112 | where xxx is a local path where it can find the missing dep. | 01:20 |
| fcuk112 | no? :( | 01:21 |
| ajmitch | for example in lfaraone's problem - there really shouldn't be a library at /usr/local/lib/libgtksheet-x11-2.0.so.0 - it means that it's been installed into the wrong location | 01:22 |
| === freeflyi1g is now known as freeflying | ||
| lfaraone | ajmitch: I think that's a local lib I installed when I first tried out the upstream source. | 01:27 |
| ajmitch | you should build inside pbuilder or sbuild | 01:28 |
| lfaraone | ajmitch: I should. | 01:35 |
| lfaraone | ajmitch: right now this is just for a quick, internal-use deb, but eventually I hope to get it into the archives. | 01:36 |
| ajmitch | it helps a lot just to make sure you get a clean build - some things can be hidden by having the files from a previous build around | 01:37 |
| lfaraone | ajmitch: main issue is I can't figure out all the packages whcih this package depends upon. | 01:38 |
| ajmitch | that's the fun part :) | 01:38 |
| ajmitch | figuring out build-depends can be annoying, reading configure.ac to get an idea of what packages are used will give you a hint at least | 01:39 |
| ajmitch | as will seeing configure fail | 01:40 |
| lfaraone | ajmitch: but since pdebuild starts clean every time, it can be a very lengthly process. (since I have to download archives, etc) | 01:40 |
| ajmitch | caching the downloaded packages helps | 01:41 |
| ajmitch | pbuilder should be setup to do that, it grabs a copy of packages that are used & stores them | 01:41 |
| lfaraone | ajmitch: it doesn't seem to be on my system. | 01:42 |
| ajmitch | in my pbuilder config I have: | 01:43 |
| ajmitch | APTCACHE="/home/ajmitch/debian/pbuilder/aptcache-${DISTRIBUTION}/" | 01:43 |
| ajmitch | APTCACHEHARDLINK="yes" | 01:43 |
| ajmitch | so it stores them there, you may want to check ~/.pbuilderrc or wherever you have your config file | 01:44 |
| ajmitch | it's a welcome feature when you're rebuilding a package for the 10th time | 01:44 |

| LucidFox | An upstream's reply to a request to add the text of the GPL to the tarball: | 09:40 |

| LucidFox | He promised he'll add it in the next release, though. | 09:41 |
| hyperair | well that's nice | 09:42 |
| hyperair | but many upstreams are seem to not care much for specifying the license. like it's a hassle and just an extra thing that's not really necessary | 09:43 |
| LucidFox | Sadly, yes. | 09:43 |
| LucidFox | They're more interested in development than legal issues. :) | 09:44 |
| LucidFox | Hmm. | 10:09 |
| LucidFox | I've started checking qdvdauthor's copyrights, and I noticed that most of its headers don't contain the standard GPL header, but just "License : GPL v 2.0". | 10:09 |
| LucidFox | And name of author, etc. Is it allowed? | 10:09 |
| siretart` | the GPL has recommendations in a section "HOW TO APPLY THE GPL" | 10:14 |
| siretart` | unfortunately many upstreams (and I mean *many*) prefer to skip that section | 10:14 |
| siretart` | such packages are allowed in both debian and ubuntu so far, as long there is no other indication that some files or produced binaries are licensed otherwise in an incompatible way | 10:15 |
| siretart` | does this help? | 10:15 |
| siretart` | LucidFox: just curious, where are you from? in what timezone do you live? | 10:16 |

| siretart` | I've just added you to the team, I'll answer your mail later, OK? | 10:18 |
| LucidFox | Hmm, this application is GPLv2+, but uses a bundled library under LGPLv3+. Does it make the overall code GPLv3+? | 10:35 |
| LucidFox | siretart`> Didn't Fabian already add me? :) | 10:44 |
| maxb | LucidFox: http://www.fsf.org/licensing/licenses/gpl-faq.html has a compatibility matrix which agrees with you | 10:45 |
| maxb | LucidFox: oh, actually, I misread it. It seems to imply it's ok to use a LGPL3 library in a GPL2+ project without relicensing the project | 10:47 |
| maxb | Presumably because the potential to relicense the project is enshrined by the GPL2+ licensing | 10:48 |

| rowinggolfer | I'm hoping someone can clear up some confusion I have with putting an app into my ppa. I push sources which specify the target as intrepid. I then copy those packages into Hardy, Jaunty, Karmic and Lucid. Is that correct? | 13:42 |
| rowinggolfer | I wonder if my sources should specify a different target. | 13:43 |
| tsimpson | rowinggolfer: as long as you choose to only copy the source (and not binaries), that should work | 13:47 |
| tsimpson | hmm, maybe not actually. LP doesn't work like that.. | 13:47 |
| rowinggolfer | no. if I choose "rebuild packages" it rejects them | 13:48 |
| rowinggolfer | I can copy the binaries though. | 13:48 |
| rowinggolfer | and they install ok on all systems. | 13:48 |
| rowinggolfer | but I don't understand the logic there. | 13:48 |
| tsimpson | that will only be a good idea for arch all | 13:48 |
| rowinggolfer | well it's pure python stuff... | 13:49 |
| tsimpson | the reason LP rejects it is because it would build the packages again, against Hardy/Karmic/whatever | 13:49 |
| tsimpson | but they'll all have the same version | 13:49 |
| rowinggolfer | perhaps that's where I am going wrong.... specifying a target at all ? | 13:49 |
| tsimpson | so the binaries would have the same name | 13:49 |
| rowinggolfer | tsimpson, ok.. I follow that. | 13:49 |
| tsimpson | if the package has no binary parts, then you should upload with Architecture: all | 13:50 |
| rowinggolfer | I have automated the entire process, except this "copy packages bit" | 13:50 |
| rowinggolfer | tsimpson, let me check the control file. I forget what I have in there. | 13:50 |
| tsimpson | the way I do it with binary packages it just change the version in the changelog to <version>~<release>1, so for example: 1.0.0-0ubuntu1~myppa~jaunty1 (for jaunty) | 13:52 |
| tsimpson | then upload that | 13:52 |
| rowinggolfer | ok. I'll adopt that strategy also. | 13:53 |

| JontheEchidna | Is AutoSync doing new-upstream-in-debian syncs this cycle? | 14:36 |
| slytherin | JontheEchidna: Sure why not. Only it is from testing instead of unstable as usual. | 14:37 |
| JontheEchidna | oh, that package I was keeping any eye on did finally get synced | 14:37 |
| JontheEchidna | But I guess it's not doing automatic removals when it's removed in Debian? | 14:38 |
| slytherin | JontheEchidna: removals are not automatic. Usually archive admins keep an eye on removals from Debian and do similar in Ubuntu. | 14:41 |
| LucidFox | Okay. Whether it's the fault of Compiz, the NVIDIA drivers or Wine, it's an unwieldy combination in Karmic. | 14:42 |
| JontheEchidna | It all looked automatic in the past. I guess it just shows to go how good our archive admins are if they look automatic ;-) | 14:42 |

| JontheEchidna | mok0: Open Street Maps? Nope, just looking out for Qt-related packages ;-) | 14:45 |
| JontheEchidna | Basically, qlandkarte got removed and was replaced by the qlandkartegt and garmindev packages | 14:46 |
| JontheEchidna | From the looks nobody ever touched it in Ubuntu, and now qlandkarte is on the removed packages list on multidistrotools. I suppose I'll file a few sync/removal bugs. | 14:47 |

| mok0 | jldupont: You need to read the wiki and take it from there. If you have specific questions, we are happy to help. It's just that "teach me how to package" ... no one will bite | 15:58 |
| mok0 | DktrKranz: thx | 15:59 |
| mok0 | DktrKranz: ah, yes I see what you mean now | 15:59 |
| DktrKranz | debomatic currently handles "rm" case, it has no mv (useless, since it hasn't delayed queues) | 16:01 |
| jldupont | just a link to a debian/rules file, pretty please? This one (http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~rowinggolfer/openmolar/trunk/annotate/head:/debian/rules) calls for a dependency that I am not sure I want. | 16:02 |
| mok0 | jldupont: you mean python etc.? | 16:03 |
| mok0 | jldupont: try deleting it | 16:03 |
| jldupont | include /usr/share/cdbs/1/rules/debhelper.mk | 16:04 |
| jldupont | deleting it... no more makefile... there is nothing in there | 16:04 |
| mok0 | jldupont: that you almost certainly need | 16:04 |
| StevenK | debhelper 7 would be nicer | 16:04 |
| mok0 | jldupont: ^^^ see StevenK's comment | 16:05 |
| mok0 | StevenK: (even though I don't agree) :-) | 16:05 |
| jldupont | hmmm. let me man debhelper 7 | 16:05 |
| jldupont | ... then what's "cdbs" for? | 16:06 |
| mok0 | jldupont: it's just another system to do the same... cdbs is a set of GNU make macros | 16:06 |
| mok0 | jldupont: it's man dh | 16:07 |
| StevenK | mok0: You prefer debugging cdbs? | 16:07 |
| mok0 | StevenK: yes | 16:07 |
| mok0 | StevenK: anything but evil perl | 16:07 |
| StevenK | mok0: Everytime I've had to do that, I've had to read the cdbs source code, which is horrid | 16:07 |
| jldupont | man dh ... Diffie-Hellman ... I don't think so. | 16:08 |
| mok0 | StevenK: Hm, yeah, well I know it pretty well by now | 16:08 |
| mok0 | jldupont: huh? | 16:08 |
| StevenK | jldupont: Do you have the 'debhelper' package installed? | 16:09 |
| jldupont | got it now.... a google search "man dh" isn't helpful... lesson learned | 16:09 |
| mok0 | jldupont: In the Examples section is a 3-line makefile template that you can use as debian/rules | 16:10 |
| jldupont | mok0: thanks! | 16:11 |
| mok0 | jldupont: don't forget the tab character in the makefile if you cut'n'paste | 16:11 |
| mok0 | jldupont: probably your old cdbs rules file failed because you didn't have debhelper installed | 16:12 |
| jldupont | ?old cdbs? First time around with debhelper... so no "old" stuff ;-) | 16:14 |
| jldupont | dh_clean: Compatibility levels before 5 are deprecated. | 16:14 |
| StevenK | echo 7 > debian/compat | 16:15 |
| jldupont | what do I do with "W: erlang-dbus source: debhelper-but-no-misc-depends erlang-dbus" | 16:15 |
| StevenK | jldupont: lintian -v is your friend | 16:16 |
| jldupont | ok... let me do "lintian" | 16:16 |
| mok0 | StevenK: If you have a package in an bzr branch on LP, is there a way to submit a command: "build this package" (without having to upload)? I know the answer is probably "no" so this is more a retorical question I guess :-) | 16:18 |
| StevenK | mok0: Not at this point, no | 16:21 |
| mok0 | StevenK: ... but it's a good idea, don't you think? | 16:22 |
| geser | mok0: not yet, but the LP devs are working on it (BuildFromBranch should be the correct keyword there) | 16:22 |
| mok0 | geser: cool | 16:22 |
| jldupont | I added "${misc-Depends}: debhelper (>= 7)" to debian/control and debuild still complains with "W: erlang-dbus source: debhelper-but-no-misc-depends erlang-dbus" | 16:27 |
| jldupont | I am not getting "http://lintian.debian.org/tags/debhelper-but-no-misc-depends.html" | 16:27 |
| StevenK | Then read what lintain -v says, like I said before | 16:28 |
| geser | mok0: see https://dev.launchpad.net/BuildBranchToArchive for the spec | 16:30 |

| EzraR | if in a package I had a config file in the debian dir that gets installed with a .install what would be the proper way to set the perms to 600 | 16:32 |
| randomaction | and it's lintian -i, not -v | 16:32 |
| EzraR | seems that dh_fixperms is only able to exclude files | 16:33 |
| mok0 | EzraR: you need to make sure the file has perms 600 before it's packed into the deb | 16:34 |
| jldupont | randomaction: thanks! | 16:34 |
| EzraR | mok0: and then have dh_fixperms exclude it? | 16:34 |
| mok0 | EzraR: I don't think dh_fixperms will hurt it | 16:35 |
| mok0 | EzraR: it will only fix obvious perm errors | 16:36 |
| mok0 | EzraR: like +x on regular files etc | 16:36 |

| mok0 | jldupont: in debian/changelog, choose an Ubuntu distro (e.g. karmic) | 16:52 |
| jldupont | e.g. erlang-dbus (0.3) jaunty; urgency=low | 16:52 |
| jldupont | is this correct? | 16:52 |
| StevenK | jldupont: Looks good | 16:53 |

| slytherin | What is the usual convention for SRU versions? The SRU page on wiki is not very clear about it. | 18:27 |
| fabrice_sp | slytherin, did you had a look at the security one? | 18:31 |
| fabrice_sp | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityTeam/UpdatePreparation#Update%20the%20packaging | 18:32 |
| slytherin | fabrice_sp: Yes I did but I thought it applied to only security updates. Also some packages have this weird ubuntux.9.04.y versioning. | 18:32 |
| fabrice_sp | slytherin, I've been using it for SRU also. This versioning is not only for backporting? | 18:33 |
| slytherin | ok I will use ubuntux.y | 18:34 |
| * slytherin wonders why the heck PPA do not accept -proposed packages. | 18:35 | |
| jldupont | my package in my PPA is taking forever to build... is there a way to "emulate" the build process locally so I'll know (maybe) what to expect? | 18:35 |
| fabrice_sp | !pbuilder | jldupont | 18:35 |
| ubottu | jldupont: pbuilder is a system to easily build packages in a clean chroot environment. To get started with PBuilder, see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/PbuilderHowto | 18:35 |
| fabrice_sp | also | 18:36 |
| fabrice_sp | !sbuild | jldupont | 18:36 |
| ubottu | jldupont: sbuild is a system to easily build packages in a clean schroot environment. To get started with SBuild, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SbuildLVMHowto | 18:36 |
| jldupont | cool! thanks! | 18:36 |
| fabrice_sp | pbuilder is easier to set up | 18:36 |
| fabrice_sp | yw :-) | 18:36 |
| slytherin | pbuilder is easier to setup but sbuild is closest to the build servers environment. | 18:37 |
| * fabrice_sp is using sbuild :-) | 18:37 | |
| * slytherin wants to learn sbuild | 18:38 | |
| * StevenK uses sbuild too | 18:38 | |
| fabrice_sp | you only need to setup a LVM :-) | 18:38 |
| cyphermox | fabrice_sp, is the LVM requirement the only difference with pbuilder? | 18:38 |
| slytherin | cyphermox: from what I have heard sbuild is fast. | 18:40 |
| fabrice_sp | cyphermox, they are both using a kind of 'clean' chroot. The difference is that sbuild clone a partition, when pbuilder uses a chroot | 18:40 |
| fabrice_sp | sbuild is fast if you use a cache tool :-) | 18:40 |
| fabrice_sp | you have to setup one with sbuild, but it comes automatically with pbuilder | 18:41 |
| fabrice_sp | (I'm using apt-cacher-ng for that) | 18:41 |
| cyphermox | fabrice_sp, what I mean is that when someone says "closest to the buildds", it means that it has to do with the fact that it's cloning partitions, not that there is an actual difference in resulting package, no? | 18:41 |
| fabrice_sp | cyphermox, I only saw one or two packages that didn't built in sbuild but built in pbuilder, so for the general use, it's good enough :-) | 18:42 |
| slytherin | cyphermox: not in resulting package but in build process. | 18:44 |
| slytherin | cyphermox: for example if you specify alternate build-deps (a | b), sbuild always uses first whereas pbuilder will use the one that is available. | 18:45 |
| slytherin | I had trouble with packages that built fine in pbuilder and then failed to build on server because of such issues. | 18:45 |
| cyphermox | ah, that's kind of an interesting difference, yes | 18:45 |
| fabrice_sp | interesting | 18:46 |
| * slytherin has to leave for some time. | 18:46 | |
| jldupont | ok, i've do sudo pbuilder create... what next? | 18:47 |
| fabrice_sp | sudo pbuilder build <package.dsc> | 18:47 |

| av` | fabrice_sp, sync it | 18:49 |
| fabrice_sp | ok | 18:50 |
| cyphermox | gah, i err | 18:50 |
| av` | fabrice_sp, he said something to me about that, but I forgot to upload a fixed package to Debian | 18:50 |
| fabrice_sp | av`, do you want me to open the sync request for agg? | 18:50 |
| av` | fabrice_sp, that's why opening a bug into the Debian's BTS is usually nice | 18:50 |
| fabrice_sp | yeah: that's what I usually tell to people opening merge request | 18:51 |
| fabrice_sp | I just made an exception in that case (tht I shouldn't have done, obviouslly) | 18:51 |
| av` | fabrice_sp, it has been uploaded like 3 minutes ago, so let's wait it gets built | 18:51 |
| av` | fabrice_sp, then you can open the request | 18:51 |
| av` | fabrice_sp, thanks for taking care about it though :) | 18:51 |

| jldupont | I've looked what I have installed on my mahcine: Synaptic says "1:12.b.5-dfsg-2" | 19:09 |
| cyphermox | jldupont, could it be that you need erlang-dev or erlang-base rather than just erlang? | 19:09 |
| EzraR | jldupont: pbuilder is not the same as your mahcine | 19:10 |
| jldupont | I'll try adding -dev and -base and see... pbuilder complains about "erlang" just being a virtual package... could that be it? | 19:10 |

| jldupont | cyphermox: let's say my package depends on some other package in my PPA for building, how do I specify this? | 19:34 |
| jldupont | ... and how do I make sure that Launchpad picks this up? | 19:34 |
| cyphermox | if you upload your new package to the same PPA, it just works. | 19:35 |
| jldupont | so Launchpad includes by default my PPA packages when building? | 19:35 |
| cyphermox | IIRC, yes | 19:35 |
| jldupont | IIRC ? | 19:36 |
| cyphermox | if i recall correctly | 19:36 |

| jldupont | when pbuilder builds stuff, | 20:44 |
| jldupont | what is the environment variable does it use to tell where to install stuff? | 20:44 |
| jldupont | in http://www.debian.org/doc/maint-guide/ch-dreq.en.html, I see "$(MAKE) DESTDIR=$(CURDIR)/debian/testpack install" but I am not quite sure what to make of it... | 20:45 |
| cyphermox | jldupont, it's exactly that | 20:46 |
| cyphermox | DESTDIR specifies to make install where to drop the files | 20:46 |
| cyphermox | (where the tree starts, instead of / ) | 20:46 |
| jldupont | so I need to use $(CURDIR) or else everything is going to fall apart with pbuilder / launchpad? | 20:47 |
| cyphermox | jldupont, $(CURDIR) is a variable that will resolve to your current directory where the build is going on (the base of the source tree) | 20:47 |
| jldupont | but when I finally have apt-get install my package, I want files to be dropped in /usr | 20:48 |
| jldupont | I am confused... please help! | 20:49 |
| cyphermox | jldupont, DESTDIR=$(CURDIR)/debian/<your binary package> should do what you want -- create a tree under <your source base directory>/debian/<name of your binary package> | 20:49 |
| cyphermox | jldupont, make install doesn't do that by itself? | 20:49 |
| jldupont | when I use pbuilder, it invokes my makefile... and my "install" target tries to copy stuff in /usr ... and pbuilder barks. | 20:50 |
| jldupont | cp: cannot create regular file `/usr/bin/epapi_loop_drv_debug': Permission denied | 20:51 |
| cyphermox | ok | 20:51 |
| cyphermox | jldupont, and in the end, you want `/usr/bin/epapi_loop_drv_debug' to be the file installed by your package? | 20:51 |
| jldupont | yes | 20:51 |
| cyphermox | ok | 20:51 |
| fcuk112 | trying to fix a patch which fails at hunk #77 in pbuilder - how do i find out what hunk #77 is? it's quite a big patch with lots of translations: http://www.pastie.org/708127 | 20:52 |
| jldupont | I guess I am thinking one step ahead here... | 20:52 |
| cyphermox | jldupon, then yes, $(MAKE) DESTDIR=$(CURDIR)/debian/<name of your binary package> will do this | 20:52 |
| jldupont | pbuilder is building a package... right? | 20:52 |
| jldupont | got it! | 20:52 |
| jldupont | so my debian/rules file can't be just "#!/usr/bin/make -f | 20:53 |
| jldupont | %: | 20:53 |
| jldupont | dh $@" | 20:53 |
| jldupont | right? | 20:53 |
| cyphermox | jldupont, yes, it is. Roughly, pbuild installs the files in a tree starting at whatever you set DESTDIR to, and the package will install all the files under that tree, but starting at / on the destination system. | 20:53 |
| cyphermox | jldupont, if you software can be installed by just doing ./configure, make, and make install with no special things, it probably will work | 20:54 |
| jldupont | it is just a simple port driver library for Erlang, nothing too fancy. | 20:55 |
| jldupont | why does pbuilder barks at "cp: cannot create regular file `/usr/bin/epapi_loop_drv_debug': Permission denied" | 20:56 |
| cyphermox | there may be something not quite kosher in make install | 20:56 |
| fabrice_sp | jldupont, because you can't install file in / in a pbuilder | 20:56 |
| cyphermox | jldupont, make install usually installs files under /usr/local, I think the trick you put above depends on that case. | 20:57 |
| fabrice_sp | you have to set whatever is the variable expected by the makefile | 20:57 |
| fabrice_sp | to $CURDIR | 20:57 |
| cyphermox | fabrice_sp, thanks | 20:57 |
| fabrice_sp | cyphermox, generaly, something like that i enough: $(MAKE) install DESTDIR=$(CURDIR)/debian/<packagename> | 20:58 |
| jldupont | have a look at http://pastebin.com/d23f1e9ec | 20:58 |
| cyphermox | fabrice_sp, yeah :) | 20:59 |
| jldupont | I guess I need to fit in $(CURDIR) in there or install stuff in /usr/local | 20:59 |
| fabrice_sp | cp in a rules file?! | 20:59 |
| jldupont | no no | 20:59 |
| jldupont | my debian/rules is: | 20:59 |
| fabrice_sp | ohhh | 20:59 |
| fabrice_sp | sorry :-) | 20:59 |
| jldupont | #!/usr/bin/make -f | 20:59 |
| jldupont | %: | 20:59 |
| jldupont | dh $@ | 20:59 |
| cyphermox | ahh I see | 21:00 |
| fabrice_sp | Makefile is clearly buggy | 21:00 |
| jldupont | fire when ready ;-) | 21:00 |
| fabrice_sp | in one package similar to this one, I had to manually install files instead of using upstream's Makefile | 21:00 |
| cyphermox | jldupont, you really should let the user decide where to put the files when installed, and/or install by default to /usr/local | 21:00 |
| jldupont | how do I do that? | 21:01 |
| fabrice_sp | DESTDIR is a standard variable in Makefile | 21:01 |
| fabrice_sp | you can set it by default to /usr/local | 21:01 |
| jldupont | so, instead of "cp lib/whateverfile /usr/lib/whateverfile" | 21:02 |
| fabrice_sp | ohhh: jldupont you're upstream? | 21:02 |
| fabrice_sp | sorry about the buggy part :-) | 21:02 |
| jldupont | what does "upstream" mean? | 21:02 |
| fabrice_sp | "Author of the software" | 21:02 |
| jldupont | fabrice_sp: it's quite ok, np :-) | 21:02 |
| jldupont | Yes I am "upstream" then... it's my stuff | 21:03 |
| fabrice_sp | :-D | 21:03 |
| jldupont | how do I correct my makefile for the install target?? | 21:04 |
| jldupont | still, same pastebin: http://pastebin.com/d23f1e9ec | 21:04 |
| fabrice_sp | so instead of "cp lib/whateverfile /usr/lib/whateverfile", put "cp lib/whateverfile $(DESTDIR)/whateverfile" | 21:04 |
| fabrice_sp | and define DESTDIR to /usr/local if not defined | 21:04 |
| fcuk112 | trying to fix a patch which fails at hunk #77 in pbuilder - how do i find out what hunk #77 is? it's quite a big patch with lots of translations: http://www.pastie.org/708127 | 21:05 |
| jldupont | oh I see. | 21:05 |
| jldupont | let me whip something. | 21:05 |
| fabrice_sp | fcuk112, you should have a .rej file with the rejected hunk | 21:05 |
| jldupont | you guys are on SO, right? | 21:05 |
| fabrice_sp | SO? | 21:06 |
| jldupont | http://stackoverflow.com/ | 21:06 |
| fabrice_sp | nop | 21:06 |
| cyphermox | nope... | 21:06 |
| jldupont | ... well, you could help I am sure. | 21:06 |
| fcuk112 | fabrice_sp: where should i find this .rej file? | 21:07 |
| fcuk112 | fabrice_sp: i have a pbuilder hook and i can't see it. | 21:07 |
| fabrice_sp | fcuk112, in the same place where the file to patch is, IIRC | 21:08 |
| fcuk112 | fabrice_sp: find . -name *.rej doesn't return anything. | 21:08 |
| fabrice_sp | fcuk112, try to apply the patch manually in your source directory | 21:09 |
| fabrice_sp | fcuk112, it's CDBS? | 21:10 |
| fcuk112 | quilt | 21:10 |
| fcuk112 | fabrice_sp: i tried quilt push xxx.path --trace | 21:10 |
| fcuk112 | fabrice_sp: but i still cannot see any .rej file - it did fail again on hunk 77 though. | 21:10 |
| fabrice_sp | or quilt push -a | 21:10 |
| jldupont | fabrice_cp: so, something like: http://pastebin.com/d7418fa54 | 21:11 |
| jgoppert | i'm packaging a file that doesn't use autotools, the install doesn't install any headers because the guy is using find on src/ basically so how do i get debuild to recognize that | 21:11 |
| jgoppert | is there a defined variable for the original source directory? | 21:11 |
| fabrice_sp | jldupont, yes: sounds better :-D | 21:11 |
| fcuk112 | fabrice_sp: quilt push -a, same result. | 21:11 |
| fabrice_sp | jgoppert, CURDIR represent the root directory of the sourc epacakge | 21:12 |
| jgoppert | thanks | 21:12 |
| fabrice_sp | fcuk112, :-/ | 21:12 |
| fabrice_sp | fcuk112, quilt push -f force the patch to be applied and generate the .rej file | 21:13 |
| fcuk112 | fabrice_sp: ah, thanks - that did it. dinner time, will be back later. | 21:14 |
| fabrice_sp | bye ;-) | 21:14 |
| cyphermox | jldupont, does pbuilder like your Makefile better with that change in ? :) | 21:17 |
| jldupont | cyphermox: still an issue... http://pastebin.com/d298c2001 | 21:17 |
| jldupont | > copying driver files in /tmp/buildd/epapi-0.7/debian/epapi/bin | 21:17 |
| jldupont | cp: cannot create regular file `/tmp/buildd/epapi-0.7/debian/epapi/bin/epapi_loop_drv_debug': No such file or directory | 21:17 |
| fabrice_sp | jldupont, what is the name of your package? | 21:18 |
| jldupont | epapi | 21:18 |
| cyphermox | jldupont, ohh. DESTDIR is empty... but you're missing the directories under /tmp/buildd/epapi-0.7/debian/epapi | 21:19 |
| jldupont | hmmm.... I need to mkdir those myself???? | 21:19 |
| cyphermox | yeah, since they might not exist (for example, under /usr/local/ on a newly installed system | 21:20 |
| cyphermox | but wait a bit | 21:20 |
| jldupont | I feel SSSSOOOO stupid! | 21:20 |
| cyphermox | in your Makefile, you used CURDIR rather than DESTDIR, although you just defined DESTDIR at the top | 21:20 |
| jldupont | I just have to "mkdir -p" I guess, right? | 21:21 |
| cyphermox | jldupont, it's not stupid, there's lots to think about all at the same time :) | 21:21 |
| jldupont | cyphermox: thanks ! | 21:21 |
| cyphermox | jldupont, install might be better than mkdir though.. and better than cp for the files. | 21:22 |
| jldupont | oh yes.. thanks. | 21:22 |
| jldupont | so, install -T or ? | 21:23 |
| cyphermox | jldupont, hold on | 21:23 |
| cyphermox | jldupont, -D might be better suited, if you don't want to do mkdirs or install -d for the directories first | 21:25 |
| jldupont | will try. | 21:25 |
| jldupont | shazam!!! it works!! | 21:26 |
| jldupont | one little complaint: dpkg-gencontrol: warning: unknown substitution variable ${misc:Depends} | 21:27 |
| jldupont | whre does "${misc:Depends}" go again? | 21:29 |
| jldupont | in the "Package" section of /control ?? | 21:29 |
| cyphermox | yes | 21:30 |
| cyphermox | under Depends: | 21:30 |
| jldupont | cool | 21:30 |
| jldupont | where can I inspect what pbuilder built? | 21:31 |
| cyphermox | jldupont, look under /var/cache/pbuilder/result | 21:32 |
| jldupont | cyphermox: I still get "dpkg-gencontrol: warning: unknown substitution variable ${misc:Depends}" | 21:32 |
| jldupont | cool: /var/cache/pbuilder/result | 21:33 |
| cyphermox | do you have a Build-Depends on debhelper? | 21:33 |
| jldupont | Build-Depends: erlang-dev (>= 1:12.b.5), debhelper (>= 7) | 21:33 |
| jldupont | cyphermox: any clue? | 21:36 |
| cyphermox | jldupont, not sure | 21:37 |
| jldupont | my complete debian/control: http://pastebin.com/d5234fc66 | 21:37 |
| jldupont | ah... maybe because I put the "Section: devel" line in... | 21:40 |
| cyphermox | maybe it's just that debhelper has nothing to put in there | 21:40 |
| jldupont | could it be: ${devel:Depends} ?? | 21:41 |
| jldupont | ... or I am suggesting something stupid ?? | 21:42 |
| cyphermox | nah, but I don't think there is such a thing as devel:Depends ;) | 21:42 |
| jldupont | ... so it might just be that pbuilder resolves ${misc: Depends} to "empty string" and issues a warning, that's all. | 21:43 |
| cyphermox | jldupont, I don't know, surely someone else in here could tell you, but I think my skills aren't at that level yet ;) | 21:44 |
| jldupont | I'll shoot it to Launchpad and see what it has to say... I'll get the result in ~4hours though... ;-( | 21:44 |
| cyphermox | ah, i see | 21:46 |
| jldupont | cyphermox: what? | 21:46 |
| cyphermox | jldupont, this is surely debianbug #498666 | 21:46 |
| cyphermox | if you have your packaging and code up somewhere, maybe I could give it a shot here to see | 21:48 |
| jldupont | http://epapi.googlecode.com/ in /trunk | 21:49 |
| cyphermox | didn't you say you were uploading it to your PPA? | 21:49 |
| jldupont | yes I am uploading to PPA... I am moving stuff to LaunchPad... | 21:49 |
| cyphermox | ok | 21:50 |
| jldupont | but I have a "legacy" on GC... | 21:50 |
| cyphermox | jldupont, it's dinner time over here, so i'll be out for a while, but this is interesting, i'll contact you again later :) | 21:53 |
| jldupont | cyphermox: cool ... thanks a million! | 21:53 |
| jldupont | I have to go get my little "monkeys" at school myself.. | 21:53 |
| cyphermox | jldupont, np. sorry if I can't always give you very clear answers, i'm still learning too :) | 21:54 |
| jldupont | cyphermox: you rock man! | 21:54 |
| jgoppert | hey i'm not getting anything header files in my deb but they are installing to debian/tmp and i uncommented dh_install, says missing files /usr/include/* ??? | 21:54 |
| jgoppert | it works if i proceed it with debian/tmp what is going on? | 22:01 |
| jgoppert | ls | 22:01 |
| jgoppert | oops, sorry | 22:01 |
| jgoppert | well i guess this works for now :-/ i hate packages that don't use automake lol | 22:03 |
| foxmike_ | 3quit | 22:19 |
| foxmike_ | #quit | 22:19 |
| ari-tczew | any sponsor is working on main? | 22:42 |
| lucas | james_w's distributed development stuff is so cool that I'm going to do merges again, I think ;) | 22:43 |
| av` | ari-tczew, ?? | 23:20 |
| jgoppert | does launchpad not let you put up hardy packages? i already have some jaunty up, do i need to increment the changes file? | 23:36 |
| av` | jgoppert, sorry? | 23:37 |
| av` | jgoppert, you mean you are unable to upload? | 23:37 |
| av` | e.g LP rejects | 23:37 |
| jgoppert | it uploads fine, just doesn't show up | 23:37 |
| av` | jgoppert, your LP ID | 23:37 |
| jgoppert | jgoppert | 23:37 |
| av` | jgoppert, and package name? | 23:38 |
| jgoppert | boost-numeric-bindings, hardy version hsl1 | 23:38 |
| jgoppert | boost-numeric-bindings-20081116-hsl1 hardy | 23:38 |
| jgoppert | i have a a boost-numeric-bindings-20081116-hsl1 under karmic, does it not like that? i'm rolling our servers back to hardy and trying to package for them | 23:40 |
| av` | jgoppert, https://edge.launchpad.net/~jgoppert/+archive/hsl/+build/1320991 | 23:40 |
| av` | jgoppert, you uploaded it for karmic | 23:40 |
| av` | jgoppert, or better you didnt increment the revision | 23:40 |
| jgoppert | how do you specify that its for hardy ? | 23:47 |
| av` | jgoppert, debian/changelog | 23:48 |
| av` | jgoppert, targer release is set to karmic now, set it to hardy :) | 23:48 |
| jgoppert | boost-numeric-bindings (20081116-hsl1) hardy; urgency=low | 23:49 |
| av` | jgoppert, be sure you check all the build-depends, any dependency to be sure you can build / use it onr karmic as well | 23:49 |
| jgoppert | not the one i just uploaded | 23:49 |
| av` | jgoppert, use another version now since you uploaded ~hsl1 already | 23:49 |
| jgoppert | luckily this is just a set of header files so i'm good | 23:49 |
| av` | like ~hsl2 | 23:49 |
| av` | or whatever | 23:49 |
| jgoppert | ok thanks | 23:49 |
| jgoppert | so hardy and karmic cant have their own set of revision numbers? | 23:50 |
| av` | jgoppert, actually yes, since they are two different releases | 23:51 |
| jgoppert | ok well how do i tell dput to go to hardy ? | 23:51 |
| jgoppert | dput http://ppa /~jgoppert/hsl/hardy ?? | 23:51 |
| av` | jgoppert, but usually the newer release should have an higher version of a package | 23:51 |
| av` | jgoppert, no | 23:51 |
| av` | jgoppert, you've specified it into the changelog already | 23:52 |
| av` | jgoppert, dput ppa:whatever foo.changes | 23:52 |
| jgoppert | yeah ok, so i guess launchpad jsut doesn't like that i'm trying to put hsl1 back up even though its under hardy and not jaunty | 23:52 |
| av` | dput doesnt decide where to put a package (or well it does for delayed stuff on Debian) | 23:52 |
| av` | jgoppert, yes, try another versioning | 23:53 |
| jgoppert | thanks | 23:53 |
| jgoppert | i'll go to hsl6 i guess | 23:53 |
| av` | np | 23:53 |
| av` | well, it's not the best idea to bump it from hsl1 to hsl6 | 23:53 |
| av` | but your choice :) | 23:53 |
| jgoppert | well i've got hsl1-5 on karmic, would probably just die again if i went with hsl2 | 23:54 |
| av` | ah ok :) | 23:54 |
| av` | select your revisions properly to avoid this issues next time | 23:55 |
| av` | :) | 23:55 |
| jgoppert | wait.. lol i think i just forgot to add my new opengpg key on launchpad ... doh | 23:58 |
| av` | xD | 23:58 |
| jgoppert | think it would have told met that upload failed though | 23:58 |
