| quadrispro | <ScottL_> hi quadrispro, glad you are here | 00:11 |
|---|---|---|
| quadrispro | ScottL, thanks, nice to see you here around :) | 00:11 |
| persia | ScottL: Next step once the exception is approved is to get your stuff into the branch and get it uploaded. Just ping us here. | 02:27 |
| persia | (as I don't think most sponsors can commit to the right bzr tree, etc.) | 02:27 |
| ScottL | persia, will a debdiff need to be created? is that the mechanism? | 03:22 |
| ScottL | because I can start the debdiff now then | 03:22 |
| ScottL | just to be ready | 03:22 |
| persia | debdiff isn't necessary, but can help. | 03:22 |
| persia | The way we tend to do work on that package is to pull the branch, edit, and push a new one. | 03:23 |
| persia | https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntustudio-dev lists all our branches, but you probably want to start from lp:~ubuntustudio-dev/ubuntustudio-look/UbuntuStudio | 03:24 |
| persia | ScottL: So if you want to use bzr, and just shove the changes in there, that actually makes it *easier* for this package. | 03:27 |
| persia | IF you don't especially, and just want to send a debdiff, that can also work. | 03:27 |
| ScottL | persia, I'll start reading up on bzr (something I wanted to do at some point) and make this my direction | 04:26 |
| persia | ScottL: OK. | 04:26 |
| persia | Most of it is `bzr branch $URI`, make changes, `bzr diff` to check changes, `bzr debcommit` to commit the changes based on the updated contents of debian/changelog, `bzr push $other-URI` to push them somewhere for review/merge | 04:27 |
| persia | There's *lots* more to bzr, but that set ought be enough to get you productive. | 04:28 |
| ScottL | tre cool, thanks | 04:29 |
| persia | I generally recommend using `apt-get --download-only source $PACKAGE`in the directory first, to avoid a set of common mistakes. | 04:30 |
| ScottL | reminder about the monthly non-mandatory developers meeting scheduled in about 20 hours - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuStudio/Meetings/2010Mar14 | 23:53 |
| ScottL | don't forget about daylight saving time if it applies to you | 23:53 |
