word2007adobeflaThe Devil (Greek: diabolos = 'slanderer' or 'accuser'[1]) is believed in certain religions and cultures to be a powerful, supernatural entity that is the personification of evil and the enemy of God and humankind. The Devil is commonly associated with heretics, infidels, and other unbelievers. The Abrahamic religions have variously regarded the Devil as a rebellious fallen angel or demon...01:53
word2007adobefla...that tempts humans to sin or commit evil deeds. Others regard the Devil as an allegory that represents a crisis of faith, individualism, free will, wisdom and enlightenment.01:53
word2007adobeflaIn mainstream Christianity, God and the Devil are usually portrayed as fighting over the souls of humans, with the Devil seeking to lure people away from God and into Hell. The Devil commands a force of evil angels, commonly known as demons.[2] The Hebrew Bible (or Old Testament) describes the Adversary (Ha-satan) as an angel who instigates tests upon humankind.[3][4] Many other religions...01:53
word2007adobefla...have a trickster or tempter figure that is similar to the Devil. Modern conceptions of the Devil include the concept that it symbolizes humans' own lower nature or sinfulness.01:53

TheMusocjwatson: I have someone from the a11y community asking me about the font size in lucid compared to karmic. Is this something that console-setup is responsible for?19:00
cjwatsonTheMuso: I hope not19:20
cjwatsonTheMuso: unless you mean font size on the console - but even then I don't think anything's changed19:20
TheMusocjwatson: Yes I mean font size on the console.19:22
TheMusocjwatson: Ok I'll let them know that.19:23
slangasekTheMuso: well, kms is now supported on more hardware in lucid, so affected users will now see a different console resolution by default due to use of fbcon19:34
cjwatsonTheMuso: yeah, what slangasek said - it's also possible that there's been the odd language-specific change19:53
cjwatsonpitti: where's the code that generates pending-sru.html?20:10
pitticjwatson: it's "sru-report" in ubuntu-archive-tools20:11
cjwatsonoh, yes, just found it20:11
cjwatsonthanks20:11
slangasekpitti: how do you identify the list of language packs that need to be pocket-copied, given that they're not output in pending-sru?  Is there a tool?20:21
pittislangasek: yes, indeed there is20:22
pittislangasek: there's a langpack-o-matic checkout on cocoplum20:22
slangasekaha20:22
pittislangasek: ./copy-packages karmic proposed updates20:22
pittislangasek: or copy-packages hardy ppa proposed20:22
pittithat will generate a list of copy-package.py commands to stdout20:22
pittislangasek: it checks the Packages.gz files which versions are newer20:23
seb128directhex, Laney: hey, do you know if anybody is working on packaging moonlight2 for debian or lucid?20:41
Laneyseb128: directhex has done work on this. As far as I know it's... not ideal for packaging (bundled copy of mono)20:42
Laney(ftpmaster says no, but I think AA has OKed it)20:42
seb128Laney, ok thanks20:44
Laneyseb128: can you NEW the waiting cil-dev stuff?20:48
seb128Laney, sure, let me have a look to those20:48
Laneythanks20:48
AnAntHello, I tried to build mailutils 2.1 (from lucid) on my PPA, but it failed: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/38633096/buildlog_ubuntu-lucid-i386.mailutils_1%3A2.1%2Bdfsg1-4%7E1_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz , why is that ?20:49
directhexseb128, yes, Laney reports status correctly. currently i have a working build system (you can imagine the chaos involved in the "bundled mono" thing), and am producing binaries for documentation and for desktop (gtk library) packages only. the sdk is only a few more lines to add, the big pending item is support for firefox >3.520:49
seb128directhex, ok, great, so you think you will get that done for lucid right?20:50
directhexseb128, i'm partly waiting on upstream to get the plugin working on lucid's browser. i hope to get it into lucid, although it may require some massaging of freeze dates by a local friendly core-dev20:51
directhexupstream are currently preparing a point release for 2.0, which will fix the browser support, and also brings in some licensing fixes i requested20:54
seb128directhex, ok thanks, I don't think the archive admin side should be an issue but let's see when it gets ready...20:54
seb128directhex, thanks for working on it20:54
directhexseb128, well, i wish the build system were a little more sane so it were debianable, but the assurances i got regarding ubuntu acceptability reignited my desire to work on it20:57
seb128great! :-)20:58
mok0_What's the status on format 3.0 (quilt) ?21:37
mok0_ah n/m, found it21:42
pitti3~21:55
cjwatsonmok0_: .orig.tar.(!gz) is broken, that's the main outstanding issue (bug 225151)22:09
ubottuLaunchpad bug 225151 in soyuz "Please add support for .orig.tar.bz2" [Medium,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/22515122:09
seb128cjwatson, it's broken for syncs you mean or...?22:11
StevenKseb128: It would be broken for everything, syncs and uploads22:12
seb128StevenK, weird, I did upload pidgin with an orig.tar.bz2 some weeks ago and it worked22:13
seb128it's in lucid22:13
* StevenK looks22:13
StevenKcjwatson: ^22:14
ccheneyyep its there22:14
ccheneyhttp://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/p/pidgin/pidgin_2.6.5.orig.tar.bz222:14
cjwatsonseb128: it may only be in some cases, but the bug does seem to suggest that database support is nonexistent22:14
cjwatsonso maybe it does work, I can't say how well22:14
StevenKSo perhaps it's just "we'd rather you didn't"22:14
StevenKRather than "it's completly broken, and won't work"22:15
slangasekbut is -2ubuntu1 the only Ubuntu revision we've had of pidgin 2.6.5?22:15
ccheneyhmm pidgin has the whole new format it seems22:15
ccheneyincluding eg pidgin_2.6.5-2ubuntu1.debian.tar.gz22:15
cjwatsonccheney: you can't do .orig.tar.bz2 in format 122:15
cjwatsonso that's not surprising22:15
slangasek(the sync-source problems, certainly, are specific to trying to upload a *second* version that references the same .orig.tar.bz2)22:15
ccheneycjwatson: ah ok22:15
seb128slangasek, yes it is22:16
seb128(only revision of the version)22:16
* slangasek nods22:16
cjwatsonit's possible that a subsequent upload would be unable to realise that there's already a .orig there22:16
cjwatsonI'm not entirely sure22:16
cjwatson(but I think we should fix this for lucid rather than panicking about stuff already in the archive ...)22:17
slangasekwe certainly should :)22:17
StevenKOooh, that's a good point.22:17
StevenKShall we upload a no-change pidgin to see if it goes bang?22:18
mok0_Is there still no intelligent way to specify build-depends for a source package?22:19
StevenKmok0_: What do you mean?22:21
mok0_StevenK: That occasionally you can't build a source package because certain packages are needed, for example in the clean target22:21
TheMusoRight, thanks.22:22
StevenKmok0_: And they should be in the Build-Depends, and is a bug. And?22:22
persiaUm, no they shouldn't.22:22
slangasekmok0_: they're specified, and you should be installing them as specified?22:22
mok0_slangasek: right22:22
persiaPolicy doesn't require that the packages required to maintain a package are specified anywhere.22:22
slangasekpersia: "in the clean target"22:23
slangasekthat's specified in policy22:23
cjwatsonseb128: looking through soyuz, I think it might just be syncs22:24
mok0_OK, in this case, the package _was_ specified in Build-Depends22:24
persiaAh, right.  Sorry, got confused with my dream of Source-Depends.22:24
mok0_but it's still a hunt to track it down22:24
mok0_persia: That's a nice dream :-)22:24
cjwatsonI don't *see* any hardcoded references to .orig.tar.gz elsewhere22:25
StevenKIs there something in Debian we can try and sync to try it? :-)22:25
cjwatsonwe *know* .orig.tar.bz2 syncs failed22:25
cjwatsonsync-blacklist is full of failures22:25
cjwatsons/failed/fail/22:25
StevenKAhh22:25
cjwatsonthe question is whether non-origful uploads fail22:25
bryce2apw, btw I have a box here in the desktop room with your l-b-m kernel bits on it22:41
bryce2apw, it's up right now with nouveau+kms.22:42
bryce2compiz crashes on it, and vt switching doesn't work22:42
bryce2haven't tested it too deeply22:42
directhexseb128, still about?23:10
seb128directhex, hey23:10
directhexseb128, i wonder if you can help me find some packages which have gone walkabout... the new -dev packages for gnome-desktop-sharp2 are showing on launchpad, but i can't see them on packages.ubuntu.com23:12
seb128directhex, I newed those just before lunch so maybe yet another publisher run23:12
directhexseb128, ah, i see23:13
directhexseb128, wondered why i was missing build-deps for building moon2 against lucid rather than sid ;)23:13
