| Semitones | hello guys! I was trying to install planetpenguin racer, and I found something curious | 04:14 |
| persia | What? | 04:14 |
| Semitones | Does it seem strange that planetpenguin-racer-extras is included in lucid and karmic | 04:15 |
| Semitones | but planetpenguin-racer is not? http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=planetpenguin-racer | 04:15 |
| Semitones | it seems like you'd need the game for the -extras to be useful | 04:15 |
| persia | Indeed. | 04:15 |
| Semitones | so... any guesses to why the game isn't there? | 04:16 |
| persia | You want to install extremetuxracer | 04:16 |
| Semitones | oh, I didn't realize it was a continuation of tux racer, but I did see it | 04:16 |

| jetienne | q. is there a way to know the dependancy of a .deb ? i got only the .deb fiel | 09:38 |

| jetienne | Rhonda: thanks | 09:39 |
| m4rtin | hi all; I've written a bugfix patch for bash-completion, as requested by a member the sponsor team, but am struggling to get a debdiff up. I've got the lucid source package and it uses quilt. There is also a diff file listed. Should I apply this before running any quilt commands? | 10:50 |
| Rhonda | m4rtin: I'd do a "quilt push -a" before starting to patch, and "quilt new my-bash-completion-fix" (or some more suiting name) before you start "quilt edit"ing the files. | 10:54 |
| m4rtin | Rhonda: thanks; so: 1. untar apt source; 2. quilt push -a; 3. quilt new; 4. apply lucid source diff; 5. do my edits? | 10:58 |
| m4rtin | hmm, seems not | 10:59 |
| m4rtin | the lucid patch places the series patches in the dir | 10:59 |
| persia | m4rtin: When you get the .dsc file, use dpkg-source -x to extract it. This will apply the diff.gz. Inside that, export QUILT_PATCHES=debian/patches and run quilt push -a | 11:03 |
| persia | !patch | 11:03 |
| ubottu | Patches are files describing the changes in code to achieve some results. There are a number of ways these can be produced, but https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/HowToFix and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/PatchSystems may provide some useful guidelines. | 11:03 |
| persia | Check the second link for more details | 11:04 |
| m4rtin | persia: thank you -- that's what I needed :) one further q if I may: does my changelog have to be inside the quilt edits, or is the packaging process outside of quilt? | 11:05 |
| persia | Please *don't* put the stuff in debian/ inside quilt patches: this just confuses the next person. | 11:06 |
| m4rtin | persia: excellent. So I've done my edit. quilt refresh; quilt pop -a; do the packaging | 11:06 |

| jetienne | q. i would like to create a user in the .deb, how can i do that ? "sudo adduser slotaaa" keeps asking for interactive question. i dont want interactive stuff | 11:33 |
| joaopinto | jetienne, check on how it's done on other packages, eg. postfix | 11:41 |
| persia | Or check debian policy 9.2: http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-opersys.html#s9.2 | 11:43 |
| Rhonda | jetienne: … and sudo isn't needed, the maintainer scripts run as root. :) | 11:44 |
| jetienne | ok trying to get postfix example | 11:46 |
| m4rtin | could someone take a look at a patch I've attached and tell me if it looks ok please? It's at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bash-completion/+bug/435055 ; last comment | 11:47 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu bug 435055 in bash-completion "Bash completion for wget -o doesn't escape spaces." [Undecided,Confirmed] | 11:47 |
| persia | m4rtin: It looks sane, but you may want to advertise in #ubuntu-devel, as there's a better chance someone there will be able to upload. Also, did you submit the bare patch (not debdiff) to Debian? | 11:49 |
| hyperair | bash completion? i remember it failed for spaces for everything sometime back. | 11:49 |
| m4rtin | hyperair: no, I didn't... should I have? | 11:50 |
| m4rtin | hyperair: it still fails that for scp; that's my next task | 11:50 |
| hyperair | m4rtin: didn't what? | 11:50 |
| hyperair | m4rtin: oh i mean cat blah<tab> didn't work, for example. | 11:50 |
| m4rtin | sorry that was to persia | 11:50 |
| hyperair | i mean it'd complete up to the first space and stall | 11:50 |
| * hyperair goes back into lurk mode | 11:51 | |
| m4rtin | persia: I didn't submit to debian... should I (and how?) | 11:51 |
| hyperair | mentors.debian.net | 11:52 |
| persia | m4rtin: http://www.debian.org/Bugs/Reporting and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Debian/Bugs and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Debian/Usertagging : short form "use submittodebian" | 11:53 |
| persia | hyperair: Not best for a well-maintained package, usually, unless one has a prior relationship with the maintainers. | 11:54 |
| hyperair | persia: oh whoops. sorry i wasn't thinking (my mind was thinking new package) | 11:54 |
| hyperair | m4rtin: regarding bash-completion perhaps it's best to poke some people in #bash-completion on irc.oftc.net | 11:54 |
| persia | Indeed. | 11:55 |
| persia | Getting the patch there helps *everyone*. | 11:55 |
| m4rtin | the problem is that they have fixed most of these bugs with a massive rewrite in their version control | 11:55 |
| m4rtin | however, they don't release frequently | 11:56 |
| m4rtin | it seems better to fix these bugs for lucid/debian and then when bash-completion team decide to release their next stable it will be solved anyway | 11:56 |

| NCommander | ScottK: ping, do you think a FFE for openttd would possibly fly? I'd like to see if we can sync it from sid | 16:17 |
| ScottK | Depends on why and what the differences are. | 16:17 |
| NCommander | ScottK: loads of bug fixes, and its now possible to put it in universe versus multiverse | 16:19 |
| ScottK | Any new features? | 16:19 |
| ScottK | Sounds promising. | 16:19 |
| NCommander | ScottK: better AI I think, haven't compiled it yet | 16:20 |
| NCommander | ScottK: the version in Ubuntu is fairly old compared to the version in sid | 16:20 |
| NCommander | 0.7.5 to 1.0 | 16:20 |
| ScottK | It sounds worth looking into. | 16:20 |
| NCommander | ScottK: that's what I thought, hence why I wanted to ask if a FFE was out of the world of possibility | 16:21 |
| ScottK | It's not. | 16:21 |
| slytherin | Any archive admins present here? | 16:27 |
| persia | slytherin: Usually, but except in special cases, it's best to ask archive-admin questions in #ubuntu-devel | 16:31 |
| slytherin | Ok. Will ask there. | 16:32 |
| slytherin | ScottK: Hi. Can you please explain what was the reason behind adding explicit libtalloc-dev build-dep to evolution-mapi? | 17:00 |
| ScottK | slytherin: It uses the talloc headers (as evidenced by the shlibs generated runtime depends) | 17:06 |
| === yofel_ is now known as yofel | ||
| slytherin | ScottK: A simple grep -r talloc.h in source yields nothing. Also check this text from build log - warning: dependency on libtalloc.so.2 could be avoided if **** were not uselessly linked against it (they use none of its symbols). | 17:12 |
| ScottK | slytherin: The fact is that it is linked. | 17:12 |
| ScottK | slytherin: It's possible it's not needed. | 17:13 |
| persia | That would involve a buildsystem patch. Adding another build-dependency is the easy (and safe) way out at this point in the release cycle. | 17:13 |
| persia | File a bug and fix it right for maverick. | 17:13 |
| slytherin | ScottK: Right. That is what I meant. It may be unnecessarily linked. | 17:14 |
| slytherin | ScottK: I was actually planning to file a sync request for version in Debian (2.28.3) which a bug-fix update. Hence I was checking with you if Ubuntu changes are important to keep. | 17:15 |
| * ScottK isn't saying that's the best solution, just made sense as part of doing the NBS rebuilds for libtalloc0 | 17:15 | |
| ScottK | slytherin: I'll leave it for you to decide. | 17:15 |
| slytherin | In any case libtalloc-dev gets pulled in because of other build-deps. | 17:15 |
| ScottK | Yes, but one shouldn't rely on that | 17:18 |
| ari-tczew | jdong: did you talk with SRU team about my objections? | 17:22 |
| slytherin | ScottK: In this case the (build)dependency seems unnecessary, so I suggest we drop this and make it a sync. | 17:22 |
| ScottK | slytherin: Your call. | 17:52 |

| jdstrand | lfaraone: plus, as it stands, it is totally unuseable | 18:02 |

| mhall119 | jdstrand: can you check the copyright files in the qimo-* packages in revu please? | 21:19 |
| kklimonda | geser: it depends on evo 2.30 | 21:23 |
| kklimonda | I | 21:24 |
| kklimonda | I'm trying to find out if any previous package builds on lucid | 21:24 |
| geser | kklimonda: what about the last build debs which are still published? do they still work? | 21:28 |
| kklimonda | geser: they don't install | 21:29 |
| kklimonda | geser: it's anjal | 21:29 |
| geser | I assumed it's anjal as there aren't that many packages in depwait on evo 2.30 | 21:29 |
| kklimonda | geser: the ubuntu3 package that is build doesn't install, it has to be rebuilt - I should (1) request package removal and then.. ask to upload no-change ubuntu4 to rebuild it? | 21:31 |
| kklimonda | (there is another option - to remove anjal from lucid completely as the 0.0.1 release we have is old one) | 21:33 |
| geser | kklimonda: I'm not sure if LP would allow that and the next question is if the archive admins are OK with this solution as they have to NEW the source again | 21:33 |
| kklimonda | mhm | 21:35 |
| kklimonda | I'll ask on #-devel then | 21:35 |
| kklimonda | ah, you are already on it ;) | 21:36 |
| geser | it's only related to this | 21:37 |
| geser | as I've noticed that the old debs are still published but only the new source version | 21:38 |
| kklimonda | right, that's also a problem - well, there is 0.0.1...ubuntu3 source downloadable but you have to dig -changes list for the link | 21:39 |
