zookoFolks: there are some ideas being thrown around about how Tahoe-LAFS ought to be packaged in Ubuntu. #tahoe-lafs05:22
zookoSpecifically, should a Tahoe-LAFS node be auto-configured on install and auto-started on reboot.05:22
zookoAlso, should every Ubuntu user get a free 2 GB of space on a Tahoe-LAFS storage grid. :-)05:23
ScottKGenerally the answer to such questions is yes.05:23
zooko:-)05:24
ScottKDunno about the last bit05:24
zooko:-)05:24
zookoThanks.05:24
ScottKIf there is a sane default configuration, the package should provide it.05:24
zookoIt isn't clear to me if there is one for this.05:25
zookoPlease join #tahoe-lafs if you are curious what the options are.05:25
zookoScottK: if these folks on #tahoe-lafs converge on a position that they want to configure the Ubuntu package to automatically connect you to a specific storage grid then I'll come back and ask you more about that...05:28
zookoIt would basically mean them offering free storage service to Ubuntu users, I think.05:28

AlanBellhello all12:12
AlanBellI am doing my first bit of python packaging, it works but builds just for Karmic. How do I get it to build for Jaunty/Lucid?12:12
AlanBellppa:alanbell/lpod lpod-python is the package12:13
AlanBellhttp://lpod-project.org is the upstream12:13
shadeslayerAlanBell: is it already packaged in ubuntu?12:16
AlanBellno, it only got announced yesterday12:16
AlanBellI would like to get it in Ubuntu proper, but I am not a motu12:17
AlanBellso I am practicing in my PPA12:17
shadeslayerhmm no idea then :)12:17
Laney(ppa support in #launchpad) you can copy the source from Karmic to Lucid in your PPA12:17
Laneyassuming it builds without changes12:18
shadeslayerAlanBell: i just know that youll need to setup pbuilder and then build packages12:18
AlanBellLaney: thanks, I will try #launchpad12:19
danblicksomething seems strange about having a different package for different upstream version numbers - i'm looking at jruby, jruby1.1, and jruby1.213:08
danblicki see the reason for doing it, but it seems like it means that if i want to build a package for jruby 1.4, it won't be based off of the jruby1.2 package13:10

jariqI am trying to create pbuilder environment for sid but it fails everytime with "chroot: cannot run command `/usr/bin/apt-get': No such file or directory". However I am able to create environment for lucid with any problems. Any ideas what can be wrong?14:04
azeemjariq: apt is no longer installed automatically by debootstrap I believe, maybe pbuilder has an option to specify additional packages to include14:06
azeemjariq: or create a lenny environment and upgrade14:06

kamalmostafaoops -- pasted wrong link -- shouldn't it be listed in the sru queue:  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bugs?field.subscriber=ubuntu-sru  ?17:08
randomactionkamalmostafa: the only open task is for karmic, so it's showing up only at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/karmic/+bugs?field.subscriber=ubuntu-sru17:12
kamalmostafarandomaction: okay yes, that makes sense -- looks like its in the right place then -- thanks.17:13
randomactionI don't know whether SRU guys look at that queue though17:14
kamalmostafarandomaction:  hmm.  but wouldn't this situation apply to all SRU's (which are already fixed in Lucid)?  Any "SRU guys" around that can chime in here?17:16
kamalmostafaI now see that my bug 503111 is unlike the rest of the Karmic-targeted SRU's in the "regular" queue...  E.g. 511868 says "Nominated for Karmic" but doesn't already have a Karmic task -- whereas my 503111 does already have a Karmic task (which Laney created).17:21

jdongno problem :)17:43
kamalmostafathanks for the help Laney, ari-tczew17:44
jdongonce in a while I do attempt to look at all subscribed+open SRU bugs, but the last time I did that I think there's 600-ish and never was terribly productive...17:44
jdongmost tended to be false-positives17:44
Laneyjdong: for what reason? Couldn't you unsubscribe the team?17:46
kamalmostafajdong: well, if this is a useful datapoint, I noticed that the "/ubuntu" SRU queue lists 91 bugs, while the "/ubuntu/karmic" SRU queue lists 95.  So maybe the 4 bugs which are only on the Karmic queue need specific investigation to see if they're in this 'lost' state.   (?)17:46
jdongLaney: Yeah I suppose I can unsubscribe. Usually it's some unrelated task still held open17:49
jdongCouldn't find a LP search option to specify what distro to match status fields to.17:49
kamalmostafajdong: thanks for your ACK on 503111 -- what's the next step for this bug?  Who is supposed to "proceed with upload"?17:51
jdongkamalmostafa: any MOTU can do that17:53
jdongthe official procedure is to subscribe ubuntu-universe-sponsors17:53
kamalmostafajdong: I'll subscribe them then -- thanks again17:53
jdongif the response time is not good, feel free to come back here and kidnap the first MOTU to talk ;-)17:53
jdongI mean.... shhhhh nobody read that.17:53
kamalmostafajdong: regarding the "match distro search" question...  I imagine that a Launchpad API script could be crafted to do this... (sounds like I have a new project for this morning :-).17:55
jdongkamalmostafa: hehehe indeed that's a way to do it :)f17:56
