ajmitchyeah, it even lets you fill in the reasons for a FFe :)00:51
* ajmitch used it yesterday for that00:51
* micahg knows for next time00:51
micahgajmitch: you think what I just posted was sufficient?00:52
ajmitchit may be enough, being a security issue, but https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FreezeExceptionProcess calls for a diff og the changelog, build log, stating that you tested it00:54
ajmitchhopefully they'll just wave it through as-is :)00:54
* micahg could do that...00:55

DmitryKurochkinHi all! I would like to update polygraph package for lucid with a new upstream release. It is a bugfix only release with no new features. How can I do that? Should I file a bug, attach a debdiff and look for a sponsor?11:02
persiaDmitryKurochkin: If you're sure it's bugfix-only, that seems the right path to me.11:09
DmitryKurochkinpersia: thanks11:11
DmitryKurochkinAnother question, why needs-packaging bug is non automatically closed with package initial upload? Here is the bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/415395 and here is a changelog of accepted package https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/+source/polygraph/+changelog.11:13
ubottuLaunchpad bug 415395 in ubuntu "[needs-packaging] Web Polygraph" [Wishlist,Fix committed]11:13
persiaDmitryKurochkin: Because the bug isn't against the package, but against Ubuntu, and so launchpad-closes-bugs can7t find it.11:14
persiaIt's an unfortunate limitation, but I'm not sure anyone has dug deep enough to figure out what would be required to fix it.11:14
DmitryKurochkinhow should I(?) close the bug correctly? Just change status to "fix released"?11:15

c_kornRhonda: you read my mind. thanks :)11:58
RhondaNo, I read backlog. I still wonder why you want to put it on getdeb at all, though.11:58
Rhonda… or at least the part of backlog that contains hilights for me. :)11:59
joaopintohe doesn't want it now :P11:59
=== dholbach_ is now known as dholbach
joaopintooh it does11:59
joaopinto:P11:59
joaopintoerm, he11:59
c_kornjoaopinto: good morning :)12:00
Rhondac_korn: If you put it on getdeb, pretty please make sure that you track changes I do later to the package. I don't want to yet again receive bugreports about outdated sources that just got the upstream source updated but not the packaging work.12:00
joaopintoRhonda, lucid is providing 1.6.512:01
Rhonda… or produce installation conflicts with the official packages.12:01
Rhondajoaopinto: Yes, and maverick will provide 1.8 and lucid will receive a backport when maverick is open.12:01
Rhondajoaopinto: 1.8 was just released two weeks ago, just for the record.12:02
c_kornRhonda: hm, we update the maintainer field and remove launchpad integration patches so bugs won't be filed against the official version.12:02
joaopintoRhonda, regular wesnoth user's can afford that delay, answering your question "why you want to put it on getdeb"12:02
joaopintoRhonda, right, which means we re two weeks late already :P12:02
Rhondajoaopinto: Exactly. They _can_ afford that delay. :)12:02
ScottKRhonda: Is there a reason not to update Lucid?12:02
joaopintoops, can't :P12:03
ScottKGenerally for games I'm pretty free with FFe.12:03
Rhondac_korn: Doesn't help with people complaining on IRC or on the wesnoth forum. I'm not talking about people using reportbug or tools. :)12:03
RhondaScottK: It's a completely new source package, it's not an update per se.12:03
RhondaBut it would be swift if 1.8 could get shipped in lucid, too.12:04
ScottKRhonda: If it's in Debian proper, I'm open to a sync.12:04
joaopintoand 1.8 is actually broken on Lucid, unless there is a patch on debian that helps :)12:04
ScottKRhonda: Are any new build-dep/depends needed?12:04
Rhondajoaopinto: I highly differ there, to be honest. 1.6 multiplayer server support isn't going to get dropped before the next stable release after 1.8 is done. That is not 1.8.1 but 1.10 or such. :)12:04
RhondaScottK: Yes, there are some new build-deps, and the packaging was _totally_ reworked in the sense that it's not possible to even ship 1.6 (the wesnoth package that's in the pool right now) and 1.8 - and people can even install them side-by-side. :)12:05
joaopintoRhonda, we have different views, we rely on upstream for release/qa management12:05
Rhondajoaopinto: And that upstream would be me, too. So I would have to rely on … me.  :P12:06
joaopintoRhonda, I mean still upper, the authors :P12:06
Rhondajoaopinto: In what way is 1.8 actually broken on lucid? What do you refer to?12:06
Rhondajoaopinto: … which also involves me. :P12:06
ScottKRhonda: If you could look at if any other packages would need updating, then I think it might be good to get it in depending on how much other impact there is.12:06
joaopintoRhonda, mouse clicks don't works, might be sdl related12:06
persiaThat's the SDL bug, for which there is a proposed fix.12:07
joaopintoRhonda, I read *stable* on wesnoth page :P12:07
joaopintobrb12:07
persiawgrant: Did you ever look at that more?  Should I just upload it?12:07
RhondaScottK: I don't think any other package would need updating. It's just lua from what I remember and that should be in lucid proper already.12:07
joaopintopersia, oh, so its affecting more games ?12:07
ScottKRhonda: In that case, I think an FFe and getting it in is reasonable.  If you'll file it, I'll approve it.12:08
persiajoaopinto: Dunno: it mostly gets reported about wesnoth.12:08
Rhondajoaopinto: That's not 1.8 related, the same issue also is affecting the 1.6 part - and it's not wesnoth related, and also there is a patch for SDL available that persia somehow wants me to make the official decision statement for inclusion or such. ;)12:08
joaopintoRhonda, I don't know if it's 1.8 related, I just know it does not work12:08
RhondaScottK: Sweet - I wouldn't have dared because with last release an update got turned down because I had some packaging rework in it and it got rejected because of that. Great!12:09
persiaI just want someone else to say "It's good" or be told "just do it".  Doing it because it seems like a good idea based on IRC backscroll strikes me as insufficiently carefull.12:09
joaopintoargh, we are likely to have a broken SDL *again* ?12:09
Rhondajoaopinto: ctrl-f for fullscreen, it works in there. The bug is "only" affecting windowed mode. And right-click and _then_ left-click is another workaround that works.12:09
persiajoaopinto: If you have time to test the patch in lucid against a variety of SDL apps, and want to confirm it ought be applied, it would be something that would make me apply it :)12:09
Rhondapersia: I guess i can be your scapegoat, I really think that the drag'n'drop fix that triggered this issue is minor compared to this clicking issue.12:10
ScottKRhonda: I think different people on the release team may have differnt views.  My view on games is that the latest crack is almost always desirable.  Particularly in this case where the old version is still available.12:11
RhondaScottK: Actually, it wouldn't be a FFe from what I understand, it would have to be an import freeze exception.12:11
persiaI agree in principle.  I'm just wary about uploading something I only half-understand when nobody else says "Yeah, that's good" :)12:11
ScottKRhonda: FFe can cover that too12:11
RhondaAh, alright.12:11
ScottKRhonda: I'm also and archive admin, so I can cover those parts too.12:12
* persia will dig up the patch, verify against lucid wesnoth1.6 and upload shortly after finding a mouse12:12
RhondaScottK: I'll postpone my approach to add alternative-handling into the wesnoth-1.8 package then. This is something that I can't test in time properly.12:14
ScottKOK.  Thanks.12:14
wgrantpersia: I didn't, beyond confirming that the patch fixes it.12:16
wgrantUni has me reasonably busy at the moment.12:16
persiaYeah, that's all I've done with it, and confirming that it doesn't break KVM.12:16
wgrantIMO, upload away.12:16
* persia needs to find a mouse first12:17
* persia hunts more12:17
c_kornRhonda: if their bug is related to our package just point them to #getdeb or http://www.playdeb.net/contact/12:17
Rhondac_korn: That would be something needed to remember. %-)12:18
joaopintopersia, I can test the sdl patch on wesnoth, I didn't found the problem on other games yet, I probably tested about 10 sdl games lately12:32
persiajoaopinto: We know the sdl patch fixes wesnoth.  If you've not found it anywhere else, that's good news.12:33
persiajoaopinto: But after I upload, getting feedback fom SDL users is important: please let me know if you hear of any issues.12:33
joaopintoah ok12:33
joaopintopersia, do you know if the PA related problems are also fixed ? I mean those from jaunty12:34
persiajoaopinto: Which class of PA issues?12:34
joaopintohangs with 100% cpu12:35
joaopintothat one affected several games12:35
persiaI never encountered that one.  Was it hardware-specific or client-specific?12:35
joaopintoI didn't experienced yet, but this one was random12:35
joaopintonot sure, let me try to find the master bug12:35
persiaThat sounds hardware-specific then.  I know there have been *huge* efforts to fix all the ALSA bugs that made pulse go insane in 9.10 and even more in 10.04.12:36

joaopintoI am sure it affected more apps/people, less techie would not figure it out that it was SDL/PA causing the system freeze12:38
persiaIf it was irreproducible, I strongly suspect SDL/PA/ALSA, but yeah.12:38
arandHmm, that's one that's been bothering me... Very random that one, generally happens more frequently after the system has been in use for some time, can be avoided for a while if respawning PA...12:41
joaopintoarand, are you still getting it with lucid ?12:46
arandjoaopinto: Have not tested enough to tell...12:46
arandI'll put that on a todo list.12:47
joaopintowe should have some system for end users to report their feedback on applications usage during development13:04
joaopintoright now there is no way to assess package testing in general13:05
persiajoaopinto: What sort of interface do you imagine beyond Malone?13:11
joaopintopersia, a simple wizard that would show me a random list of packages that I have installed (if we could identify the most used even better), asked some simple rating about the package stability an dupload thata data somewhere13:13
joaopintosomething that could be used for people not directly involved in bug reporting/fixing, those already cover their used packages13:14
persiaWe can identify the most-used, with popcon.13:14
persiaThat does sound like a good idea.  Just needs some implementation.  I'd recommend looking at the popcon source and coordinating with cr3 who somehow got checkbox to be able to report to LP in a useful way.13:15
joaopintoI guess that bug counts are so high these days that they are no longer an important QA metric13:18
joaopintoand they don't provide "positive" data13:18
persiaThe overall volume doesn't matter, really.13:18
persiaThe issue is that we can't usefully distinguish between a good package with lots and lots of users and a poor package with very few users based on bug counts.13:19
persiaDoing someting like bugcount/popcon might generate some idea of which packages are buggiest, but that then isn't a good metric to use to figure out what needs fixing.13:20
nenolodhow does one get a package removed from ubuntu?13:20
persiaWe end up mostly fixing bugs in packages with lots of users and lots of bugs, which is useful, but not necessarily optimal.13:20
joaopintowith a rating system we could identify per user "satisfaction"13:20
persianenolod: File a bug against the package requesting removal.  subscribe the archive admins if you can upload that package, otherwise subscribe ubuntu-sponsors13:20
nenolodcool.13:20
persiajoaopinto: Right.13:20
nenolodi would like to remove audacious from ubuntu.13:20
persianenolod: Why?13:21
nenolodit's lack of proper maintenance in ubuntu and the general attitude of the people who try to maintain it are offensive to us.13:21
persiaSurely that can be fixed in other ways, no?13:22
persiaGenerally we only remove packages when they are superceded or hopelessly buggy, unmaintainable, and dead upstream.13:22
persiaI seem to recall you used to maintain it in Ubuntu fairly well: what changed?  Can that be fixed?13:23
nenolodthe reason why i attempted to fix the package was because we were getting an influx of ubuntu users bothering us (upstream) about the package13:24
persiaHrm.  We appreciate you helping out of course, but we ought be a better buffer.13:25
persiaI know lots of folk use audacious in Ubuntu, so I'm not tempted to see it gone.13:25
persiaHow do you think users could be provided with a good audacious, and not end up pestering you all the time?13:26
nenolodby ensuring bdrung does not touch it any further.  we cannot work with him, he is far too abrasive.13:26
nenolodhis latest plan is to edit the artwork in the package because he does not like it.13:27
nenolodif that occurs, we will be forced to place the artwork under non-free license in future versions.13:27
persiabdrung: Um, why would we distro-patch artwork?13:28
ScottKbdrung: If that's accurate, that's not appropriate.13:28
persianenolod: We specifically don't have maintainers in Ubuntu, so it's hard to say "This person should not touch package X".  That said, you'll get support if you need to avoid inappropriate changes.13:29
nenolodthanks.13:29
persianenolod: So, setting aside the personal issue (and I suspect there's history, but don't think we need to rehash now), are there pending changes that you think need to be in Ubuntu to make sure the audacious experience for lucid matches what you'd like to see in a distribution?13:30
nenolodpersia, i understand that, but patching the audacious logo to fit better into a dark background is not really a desired or appropriate change13:30
persiaAgreed, especially since my memory is that audacious has fairly broad theme support, and can be rethemed with ease if there is a need/desire to change the theme on a per-distro or per-flavour basis.13:31
nenolodoh, this is the icon for the status icon plugin.13:32
persianenolod: Is that not themable?13:33
nenolodpersia, 2.3 is fine as it presently stands.  the icon being distro-patched is not something we find desirable13:34
nenolodpersia, no, it is not presently themable.13:34
persiaDoes it look terrible with the lucid default themes?13:34
kklimondait does look bad with the radiance theme13:35
kklimondaambiance*13:35
persiaUgh.  That's annoying then.13:35
persianenolod: Can it be made themeable?13:35
wgrantMost notification area and indicator icons should be monochromised.13:35

persianenolod: That said, if there's a way to add theme support, I'd like to enable that, if it otherwise looks bad (but let's wait for kklimonda's screenshot).13:38
persianenolod: So, I don't encourage you to make the artwork non-free: it's not going to make any useful difference to my opinion (because I don't want to modify your artwork), but it does make it hard to distribute.13:39
joaopintonenolod, I am not an ubuntu developer but I am an open source developer and let me tell you, regardless of the reasonably of bgrunts changes, you threat is not respectful with the free sofware spirit13:39

persiakklimonda: Thanks.13:39
LaneyCiemon: I'm going to upload your branch now, good work!13:39
persiakklimonda: That looks a lot like bdrung's icon to me.  Is that the modified one, or the upstream one?13:40
bdrungpersia: grab the source -> pixmaps/audacious2.png13:41
nenolodthat is the upstream one13:41
bdrungpersia: i did not modify anything13:41
nenolodpatches are accepted to make the icon themeable13:41
persianenolod: Cool.  In that case, if it ends up being consensus that the icon doesn't work with the Ubuntu theme, we'll send you a patch for that.  We will not modify your artwork.13:42
nenolodjoaopinto, i'm sorry but i'm not involved in this "free software" movement, because it produces things like http://www.boycottnovell.com/13:42
nenolodjoaopinto, therefore i could care less if GPL zealots are butthurt13:42
azeemnenolod: please refrain from personal attacks in here13:42
azeemyou#re supposed to follow the Code of Conduct13:43
joaopintonenolod, open source software freedom is not about license restrictions or enforcement, you clearly fail to acknowledge that13:43
persiaLet's not make this a discussion about philosophy.13:45
persiaWe have a package that needs attention.  Let's focus on that.13:45
nenolodi fully agree that the audacious icon does not fit those themes and should be modified, however13:45
nenolodit should be modified in a way that does not distro-patch the package13:46
azeemthat's not your call13:46
kklimondaugh..13:46
RhondaWhy doesn't the black circle just fade into alpha channel but fade into white?13:46
persianenolod: That may be tricky.  That said, if we end up with a patch, we'll definitely send it to you for comment/consideration, and appreciate any guidance on improving it (and will hope to see you adopt it).13:47
nenolodRhonda, ask whoever made the thing13:47
persiaI see an alpha channel.  What am I missing?13:47
* persia is looking at pixmaps/audacious2.png from the source.13:47
azeemmaybe the code is setting a background before rendering it?13:48
Rhondanenolod: But you seem to defend that this icon is appropriate - or I'm not really getting what you are offended with when someone else makes that happen.13:48
Rhondanenolod: … actually noone _did_ the change, there was just a question _wether_ the change was acceptable - which actually wouldn't even be needed. bdrung just asked, he didn't make any change?13:49
nenolodRhonda, what i am against is distributions pointlessly modifying audacious because then *I* have to deal with the brunt of audacious users in ubuntu who ask me about your patches.13:49
Rhondanenolod: I wonder why you consider it pointlessly when you don't even know why it's that way? That sounds strange to me …13:49
nenolodRhonda, ubuntu has applied plenty of patches to audacious in the past which have broken core parts of the application13:49
persianenolod: Understood.  We have no desire to pointlessly modify it.  We would like to work with you to ensure the audacious experience in Ubuntu is ideal.13:49
Rhondanenolod: Please don't distract - this seems to be a completely different and hopefully seperate issue.13:50
nenolodnobody contacted us when bryce harrington applied 6 patches (which were already fixed in newer versions)13:50
joaopintoI think it should be clear that patches are accepted based on technical merit while respecting legal rights and not on copyright threatening13:50
persianenolod: All of bryce's patches were already fixed upstream?  He ended up uploading those because he had submitted them 18 months ago, and nobody appeared to have reviewed them.13:51
nenolodpersia, we don't make point releases, and all of those subsystems were antequated vestiges of XMMS13:52
nenolodtherefore, they were fixed correctly, with a complete rewrite13:52
persianenolod: So, how can we better ensure patch sharing?  We don't tend to have anyone specifically as a contact for a package, which makes this tricky.13:52
Rhondanenolod: Actually, I fully understand where you are coming from. I package wesnoth for Debian (and thus Ubuntu) and got several users reporting issues by the packages in getdeb/playdeb and itwesnoth, which have very little to do with my work. I totally can understand that you don't like that. Though, patching an icon to work in every colored environment instead of only white doesn't play into that area, at all. At least IMHO. :)13:52
nenolodRhonda, i f'ing hate getdeb13:52
nenolodRhonda, i actually wrote a plugin for JIRA to automatically close bugs with the word GetDeb in them as invalid13:53
RhondaActually I'm neither aroused by the quality they spread around. But we are again losing focus. :)13:53
joaopintoRhonda, there was no need to get getdeb into a different trouble :P13:53
nenolodgetdeb was already in trouble for years13:54
Rhondajoaopinto: I know, they can do that on themself pretty well. ;)13:54
persiaAnyway, let's not get distracted.13:55
RhondaThe point that I wanted to raise - even if you disagree with others doesn't mean that one should behave disrespectful to them.13:55
persiaWe want audactious to be a good experience for Ubuntu users.13:55
joaopintonenolod, To be honest after seeing you threatening other people which trying to improve your own work I don't find your opinion respectful enough to debate it :)13:56
nenolodand actually bdrung has done a lot to improve that.13:56
Rhondajoaopinto: Actually, it isn't even nenolod's work. "ask whoever made the thing"13:56
persiaSo it looks like we have 2.3.0 upstream and 2.3-1ubuntu1 in lucid.13:57
persiaand we have an issue with an icon.13:57
nenolodjoaopinto, i have not threatened anyone.  i have simply said that i will separate the audacious artwork and release it under a creative commons license.  really, the artwork needs to be separated anyway.13:57
joaopintoRhonda, work as in the product, as far I understood the goal is  to make audacious more appealing to users13:57
persiaAnd the issue with the icon appears to be that it has a white background, rather than an alpha channel background.13:57
azeemnenolod: you said non-free13:57
persiaDoes that match everyone's understanding?13:57
nenolodazeem, yes.13:57
azeemnot creative commons13:57
nenolodazeem, there are non-free CC licenses.13:57
azeemif that helps getting audacious removed from Debian, I'm all for it13:58
Rhondaazeem: Not all CC is free.13:58
azeemI know13:58
nenolodazeem, if you want audacious removed from Debian, file the request for removal13:58
azeemI don't care that muhc13:58
azeemmuch*13:58
persiaLet's not go for removal.13:58
persiaWe can sort this in better ways.13:59
nenolodnote that audacious in Debian isn't the problem13:59
azeemnenolod: I was talking the other way round13:59
persianenolod: bdrung: kklimonda: Rhonda: Do you all agree that the issue is that the icon should use alpha-channels?  Do you think the best way to do this is to submit a change upstream, or to implement theme support?13:59
azeemif an upstream threatens to take stuff non-free, maybe it's not in Debian's best interest to ship it13:59
azeembut I'm getting off-topic13:59
persiaazeem: Indeed.14:00
nenolodah yes, ubuntu is flexing it's control of debian again14:00
nenolodnice14:00
persianenolod: No, there is no control.  Several folks happen to be involved in both Debian and Ubuntu, that's all.14:00
kklimondapersia: I see that status icon already uses a icon from theme and only falls back if it can't find it. I wonder if we couldn't just distribute "our" icon in the ubuntu-mono package.14:01
Rhondapersia: I always agree with submitting patches upstream instead of keeping them just in a distribution. And if I'm not mistaken, that's even part of the CoC. ;)14:01
nenolodkklimonda, that does sound like a good solution.14:01
persiaRhonda: It is: the question is whether to work with nenolod on an icon change or on theme support.14:01
nenolodpersia, theme support is actually there14:01
persianenolod: Sorry, I thought it wasn't from what you said before.  If there's theme support, then just adding the icon to the ubuntu-mono theme is definitely the solution.14:02
Rhondapersia: That icon isn't part of a theme, to the best of my knowledge.14:02
persiakklimonda: Would you mind running with that?14:02
persiaRhonda: Yes, but that's easy to change :)14:02
nenolodactually, the status icon uses an XPM file14:03
nenolodnot the png file14:03
joaopintoRhonda, afaik we getdeb had worked to resolve those packaging issues with you, please let me know the bug numbers which have not been properly addressed14:03
nenolodah14:03
nenolodjoaopinto, you're with getdeb!14:03
Rhondanenolod: It has nothing to do with Ubuntu when azeem says that if audacious turns to use non-free license for the artwork then Debian won't be able to ship the package (in main). That's just pointing out the results that your move would make, nothing more, nothing less.14:03
nenolodjoaopinto, please stop publishing audacious packages, they are really a nightmare upstream14:04
bdrungpersia: yes, i think that it's an issue with the alpha channel.14:04
nenolodbdrung, it's an XPM issue.14:04
nenolodbdrung, XPMs do not have alpha channels.14:04
persiaLook.  We're not going to remove the package.  We have a strategy.  Let's not focus on what might have happened if we couldn't get along.14:04
Rhondanenolod: Oh, hmm. And XPM only have one alpha channel, not a scaled one. Now I see the actual issue.14:04
nenolodexactly14:04
persiaHrm.  This makes it trickier.14:04
nenolodpersia, i was referring to getdeb14:04
joaopintonenolod, they are ? we never got a complain, neither from developers or users14:04
nenolodjoaopinto, i'm a developer.  i'm complaining.14:05
Rhondanenolod: Would it be acceptable to you if the icon would be switched to png instead? :)14:05
nenolodRhonda, yes, that's fine.14:05
nenolodRhonda, it should anyway.14:05
joaopintonenolod, right, and you found the problem today...14:05
nenolodjoaopinto, no, we've been aware of getdeb for several years14:06
Rhondajoaopinto: I'm happy to hear that - one thing was that you shipped all the campaigns in a single package and didn't add conflicts. Not sure if that is still the case these days. And I hope c_korn will try to follow my git repository for the packaging. :)14:06
joaopintonenolod, still you didn't had the time to report any of those problems, so they were not serious enough14:06
nenolodjoaopinto, we just haven't bothered to contact you, because we figured it would be a waste of our time.14:06
bdrungi think the png file i affected, too14:06
nenolodmodify it then14:06
nenolodbut regardless14:06
nenolodthe icon should be monochromized14:07
persiabdrung: The one in pixmaps/audacious2.png appears to have alpha channels in my image viewer.  Are you sure?14:07
joaopintoRhonda, that had a tecnhical reason, we were not using a repository at that time14:07
bdrungpersia: the icon in the menu is affected14:07
bdrunglet me check what we install14:07
persiaBut that's the XPM.14:07
nenolodno, the menu icon should be the .png ... oh right14:08
nenolod*grr*14:08
nenolodthe debian package makes XPMs14:08
nenolodfor whatever reason i do not know14:08
bdrungk, then i have to fix this14:08
lfaraoneIn squeak, /usr/bin/squeakvm has been moved to /usr/lib/squeak/3.11.3-2147/squeakvm. The "etoys" package expects it to use the bin one. There is however a helper script in /usr/bin/squeak that accepts less options than squeakvm. Should I use the helper script in etoys, or how should I deal with the potentially changing path of the squeakvm application?14:08
azeembecause the Debian menu only takes/took spms14:08
azeemxpms*14:09
joaopintonenolod, that is sad to know, you assume people don't care about problems :P14:09
persiaCan we change how audacious loads, so that it prefers .png to .xpm?14:09
bdrungazeem: we could create a audacious32.xpm that do not interfere with the .png file14:09
kklimondapersia: it falls back to xpm only if it can't find audacious icon in the current theme14:10
persialfaraone: I think the safest path forward would be to have the helper script in squeakvm accept more options and pass them to the real binary.14:10
nenolodazeem, oh right14:10
Rhondanenolod: The Debian menu system requires xpm files. If there is a desktop entry though, that one can freely use the png file.14:10
persiaLets do that then: not create an .xpm that gets picked up, and use the .png, which *should* get us alpha blending without needing a theme.14:10
persiaRhonda: But if the two have the same name, and one autopicks, ...14:11
nenolodthe audacious_player.xpm is hardcoded into the statusicon plugin actually14:11
Rhondapersia: Yes, but gnome should do the proper thing here.14:11
bdrungnenolod: audacious detects only SSE on compile time and not on runtime, right?14:11
nenolodthat's an old XMMS vestige14:11
lfaraonepersia: okay, so I'll add a "-- [parameters to squeakvm]" to the spec?14:11
nenolodbdrung, yes.14:11
nenolodbdrung, so it should be disabled on i386.  all amd64 chips have it.14:11
bdrungyes, that was my plan14:12
persialfaraone: That seems safest to be, and most likely to offer general support for 3rd party squakvm users.14:12
Rhondapersia: The desktop entry should be without extension, and gnome picks up the png first. At least everywhere I looked myself.14:12
bdrungnenolod: are there plans to detect it on runtime?14:12
nenolodbdrung, no.14:12
bdrungk14:12
persiaRhonda: Last time I looked, openbox preferred xpms, but yeah, pngs are preferred most places.14:13
Rhondapersia: And the xpm file is still required to not break the Debian menu. Please remember the pgadmin3 issue, I think you were involved in my rant back then. ;)14:13
persiaRhonda: I agree the package should have an .xpm (go look at the set of bugs I filed in the BTS, and notice that > 50% of them included adding a .xpm file to the package), but there's no reason it needs to have precisely the same barename as the .png is that is shown to cause some runtime issue (as seen in this case).14:14
Rhondapersia: It doesn't hurt neither.14:17
Rhonda/usr/share/pixmaps/pgadmin3.svg14:17
Rhonda/usr/share/pixmaps/pgadmin3.xpm14:17
Rhonda:)14:17
kklimondapersia: in case of the audacious it doesn't load xpm because it finds it in the theme - it loads xpm because it can't find "audacious" icon in the theme and falls back to /usr/share/audacious/icons/audacious_player.xpm14:18
kklimondaugh - it loads xpm not because it finds it in the theme*14:19
persiaRhonda: for pgadmin3 (and very many packages) it doesn't hurt.  For audacious, I think it does, because of the xpm/alpha channel thing.  Very specific case.14:19
bdrungwe provide only audacious2.png files (note the 2 in there)14:19
kklimondathe icon is called audacious2 and it's used for a desktop file14:19
nenolodjoaopinto, http://archive.getdeb.net/getdeb/ubuntu/pool/apps/a/audacious/audacious_2.2-1~getdeb3.dsc14:19
nenolodjoaopinto, it's missing.14:20
kklimondaso we can't really change it to the monochrome icon as we'll change the application icon itself. we'll have to do the same we have done with other applications - create a patch that first tries to load "audacious2-panel"14:20
persiaIt seems the audacious2.png used in the .desktop file is created by debian/rules.14:21
persianenolod: What's your thought on a patch that first tries to load audacious2-panel and then audacious2 ?14:21
nenolodpatch for what, specifically?14:22
nenolodoh i see14:22
nenolodthat sounds fine.14:22
persiaLet's do that then: probably less invasive.14:22
persianenolod: Do you want that patch in JIRA, or should it be distro-specific?14:22
Rhondapersia: If the xpm would be preferred to the svg the report wouldn't have got closed, to be honest. :)14:22
nenolodi can handle it upstream14:22
persiaRhonda: heh, yeah.14:23
lfaraoneheh. /usr/bin/squeak is in a huuuge single patch called "linex.dpatch"14:23
persianenolod: Cool.  Thanks.  Do you expect to do that soon, so we can cherrypick, or ought we generate a patch locally?  (we're running against release freeze soon).14:23

kklimondadebfx: also "users usually want to use the answer tracker to have somebody looking at their issue rather than report bugs"15:36

persiajoaopinto: What's the license issue?  Under what license are they distributed?15:37
bdrungjoaopinto: are you getdeb dev?15:37
joaopinto<nenolod> joaopinto, the plugins collection contains plugins under many different license options.15:37
joaopintoyes15:37
joaopintoand I am being threatened to get a DMCA noticed for distributing it15:38
bdrungjoaopinto: we removed one plugin in the debian package15:38
persiajoaopinto: You have to grep all the files, and check what can be distributed.  My memory is that it needed a repack.15:38

nenolodhope you have a lot of money15:40
sebnerbdrung: WTH is this new Audacious GTKui player thing btw :)15:40
persiajoaopinto: Um, have you checked the licenses?  Lots of audio codecs end up being problematic to redistribute.15:40
bdrungsebner: don't ask me, ask upstream ;)15:41
persiajoaopinto: As bdrung mentioned, some had to be removed in Debian.15:41
sebnerbdrung: upstream doensn't provide any changelogs or forums with information :P15:41
persiajoaopinto: So if getdeb isn't doing that, you're vulnerable (and you want to fix it).15:41
joaopintopersia, the discussion was drove  for the DMCA, was the fact that getdeb drivers to much poor quality bug reports (which are not related to packaging), so I am not quite sure they are bing honest about the license issue15:42
persiasebner: No, but upstream idles here and helps us deal with some classes of issue, so we oughtn't complain too much (live people are more precious than changelogs)15:42
nenolodjoaopinto, the USF plugin is not free software.  but it doesn't affect you.15:43
persiajoaopinto: For your own due dilligence, you need to check.  That something was removed in Debian is a strong indicator there is an issue.15:43

lfaraoneIf debian is not using a patch system for a package, and I need to modify it in Ubuntu, should I add such a system?16:59
persialfaraone: Generally not, but it depends on how Debian isn't using a patch system.17:00
persialfaraone: Check the diff: if there's really no patches at all (it's quite possible to patch without a patch system), check other packages with the same maintainer, to try to determine maintainer preference.17:01
persiaIf there are patches in the diff (without a patch system), just stay with that model.17:01

lfaraonepersia: interesting, in /usr/bin/squeak it says "If the available arguments to start the squeak virtual machine have to be used, you should avoid using this script, and call the real virtual machine using squeakvm"17:13
lfaraonepersia: I could just have etoys use the same magic that the squeak script uses to find squeakvm.17:13
nigelbbdrung, poke17:15
persialfaraone: That would be easier, yes.  The rationale for chaning the handler is to support random 3rd party scripts.  That's not a high priority.17:17

kklimondahmm.. is UI Freeze only for packages from main?22:42
james_wkklimonda: it's for the assistance of the doc teams and the like, so the less likely it is to be documented somewhere then the less it applies I guess22:43
ScottKThere are Universe flavors that have documentation too.22:45
kklimondaok, thanks - that makes sense22:50
james_wScottK: yeah, I don't think I claimed there weren't?22:51
ScottKjames_w: No, I was trying to amplify your statement, not contradict it.22:56
james_wScottK: sorry, misunderstood then22:59
ScottKjames_w: I could have put it more clearly.23:00
