| crimsun | nope, just file a bug requesting the sync | 00:37 |
| nigelb | okay :) thanks | 00:37 |

| michas | Hi, what is the correct way to handle menu entries? Debian uses the menu packet, but this seems not to be used by default. How do I configure my package to add an menu entry for ubuntu? | 10:53 |
| geser | create a .desktop file | 10:54 |
| persia | michas: You want to do two things: 1) use the menu system anyway, because some desktop environments require that, and 2) add an XDG .desktop file. | 10:54 |
| nigelb | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/Complete#.desktop%20Files might help | 10:55 |
| michas | Where do I find more information about XDG .desktop files? | 10:55 |
| michas | oh, ok. :) | 10:56 |

| abogani | As reported in http://udd.debian.org/cgi-bin/ubuntu_ftbfs.cgi the avr-libc package don't build from source. | 11:18 |
| abogani | I have the simple patch that fix it but I should open a bug on LP about this first? Or a merge request via bzr branch is enough? | 11:18 |
| abogani | Thanks in advance! | 11:18 |
| persia | abogani: Either way *should* work at this point. | 11:20 |
| persia | abogani: Actually, you might want to file a bug, but you don't need to put a patch on the bug: you can just link the branch. | 11:20 |
| * persia thinks that branches not linked to bugs may not show up in the report | 11:21 | |
| persia | abogani: Just to verify, make sure that your issue is represented at http://qa.ubuntu.com/reports/sponsoring when you're done. | 11:21 |

| micahg | any u-u-s around? | 18:09 |
| nhandler | micahg: Need something? | 18:12 |
| micahg | nhandler: a debdiff sponsored :) | 18:12 |
| nhandler | micahg: Bug # ? | 18:12 |
| micahg | bug 530660 | 18:12 |

[Medium,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/530660 | 18:12 |
| nhandler | micahg: Don't forget we are in Feature Freeze | 18:15 |
| nhandler | micahg: You also do not need to mention changing the maintainer field in the changelog | 18:15 |
| micahg | nhandler: k, and about FF, I figured this is a problem that needs to be fixed | 18:16 |
| micahg | just a package rename | 18:16 |
| nhandler | micahg: Yes, but you will want an FFe | 18:16 |
| micahg | nhandler: FFe please? | 18:17 |
| nhandler | micahg: :) One minute | 18:18 |
| nhandler | micahg: Also, why is the transitional package Architecture: any ? | 18:20 |
| * micahg looks | 18:21 | |
| micahg | oh, right, that can be i386 | 18:21 |
| micahg | nhandler: my first time doing transitional package from scratch | 18:21 |
| nhandler | micahg: Why not just make it Arch: all ? | 18:21 |
| micahg | will fix | 18:21 |
| nhandler | Or was the old package only built for i386 ? | 18:22 |
| micahg | nhandler: no, it was for amd64 and i386 | 18:22 |
| micahg | nhandler: is Arch: all i386 only? | 18:22 |
| pochu | micahg: Arch: all is built only once (usually on i386) but can be installed on any architecture | 18:24 |
| pochu | it's arch independent | 18:24 |
| micahg | nhandler: fixed | 18:29 |
| nhandler | micahg: And pidgin-mbpurple was already removed from lucid ? | 18:31 |
| micahg | nhandler: I wanted to have the transitional package in place before requesting removal | 18:32 |
| nhandler | micahg: And have you tested that upgrades and fresh installs work with this? | 18:34 |
| micahg | nhandler: no, I suppose I could though | 18:36 |
| * micahg fires up Lucid VM | 18:36 | |
| nhandler | micahg: Yeah, when requesting FFe's, you usually will want to include logs showing that everything works as expected. | 18:37 |
| micahg | nhandler: I didn't realize it was an FFe...I'll test an install of the old package and then install the new package to simulate an upgrade | 18:37 |
| micahg | nhandler: ugh...I seem to be having issues | 18:55 |
| lfaraone | What exactly are UCSNs? I saw "UCSN-1" recently wrt clamav; I assume they're USNs for things not in main? | 18:57 |
| nhandler | micahg: What type of issues? | 18:59 |
| nhandler | lfaraone: Looks like it stands for Ubuntu Community Security Notice | 19:00 |
| micahg | nhandler: it didn't install the files. I think I have to modify more stuff :( apologies for not following this through all the way first | 19:00 |
| nhandler | micahg: Hmm...Was this on lucid simply installing your modified pidgin-microblog or on lucid going from pidgin-mbpurple to -microblog ? | 19:01 |
| micahg | nhandler: it didn't install hte files in any package | 19:01 |
| lfaraone | nhandler: when did this get started? (apparently without fanfare :) | 19:01 |
| * lfaraone has seen no docs mentioning it. | 19:02 | |
| nhandler | lfaraone: No clue. You will probably want to ask someone on the security team | 19:02 |
| nhandler | micahg: Let me give it a try. Could you push your modified package to a PPA ? | 19:02 |
| micahg | nhandler: already did | 19:03 |
| nhandler | micahg: Which ppa? | 19:03 |
| micahg | nhandler: https://edge.launchpad.net/~micahg/+archive/patch-test/+packages | 19:03 |

| nhandler | lfaraone: If it cleared NEW, we can sync it. No need for a '[needs-packaging]' bug | 19:12 |

| lfaraone | nhandler: should the task be set to "confirmed" or "triaged", or is leaving it as it is fine? | 19:16 |

| nhandler | lfaraone: Great. Let me look it over | 19:18 |

| micahg | nhandler: seems to work now, I'll attach a new debdifff | 20:21 |
| crimsun | malev: It should be. Do you have a more precise question about it? | 20:21 |

| malev | crimsun, thanks!! | 20:22 |

| malev | ja | 20:24 |
| crimsun | feel free to pop into #ubuntu-packaging if you have specific packaging questions | 20:24 |
| ScottK | crimsun: Since when is this not the place to ask packaging questions for Ubuntu? | 21:12 |
| crimsun | ScottK: I'm unaware of this channel being deprecated for such a purpose. Recently #ubuntu-packaging was formed with the presumed intent of answering packaging questions. | 21:23 |
| ScottK | crimsun: It seems odd to direct people away from here to get packaging questions answered. | 21:23 |
| crimsun | ScottK: sure. It would help to clarify what the explicit separation is for #ubuntu-packaging. | 21:24 |
| ScottK | crimsun: IIRC, it was created because there wasn't a good place for PPA packaging questions. | 21:25 |
| lifeless | ubuntu-packaging was created as a non-official-ubuntu packaging forum | 21:25 |
| lifeless | e.g. | 21:25 |
| lifeless | PPA help | 21:25 |
| lifeless | derivative distro help | 21:25 |
| crimsun | so, if the intent is to answer only derivative packaging questions in that channel, we should make that distinction much more explicit in the [that channel's] topic | 21:26 |
| * ScottK has never been there, so wouldn't know. | 21:27 | |
| lifeless | crimsun: I don't think it excludes non-derivatives | 21:32 |
| lifeless | its just derivative questions here, in #launchpad, and #ubuntu-devel were all starting to pile up, and be confused | 21:33 |
| crimsun | lifeless: I was fairly confused by the "Packaging for Ubuntu" bit in the topic | 21:35 |
| lifeless | crimsun: hmm persia set it up; I'll defer to him to comment fi the topic is exactly what he meant | 21:37 |
| kees | lfaraone: hello (saw your privmsg, I'll be working on it on monday) | 23:50 |
| lfaraone | kees: thanks. let me know if you need a UCSN description writeup for it :) | 23:51 |
| kees | lfaraone: okay, cool. we're still working out the details on UCSNs. We know we want to have it happen, but we haven't finalized it yet. However, clamav was a good test run for a pretty big change. | 23:54 |
