| Bachstelze | guys, what do with #577627 ? it could warrant a SRU, but I'm not familiar with the process | 00:57 |
|---|---|---|
| Bachstelze | oho wow, I really need to go to bed, there's one from 2 months ago already >.> | 01:01 |
| lfaraone | bug 577627 | 01:04 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 577627 in php-mcrypt "Shipped config file uses deprecated "#" comment" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/577627 | 01:04 |
| lfaraone | Bachstelze: Warnings like that probably do not meet the SRU criteria. Will the problem cause applications to fail? | 01:05 |
| Bachstelze | nope, I wonder why it's still there, though | 01:06 |
| Bachstelze | given it was reported before the release | 01:06 |
| lfaraone | Bachstelze: nobody found it, and the user did not subscribe ubuntu-sponsors. | 01:07 |
| lfaraone | Bachstelze: can you provide a command that demostrates the issue? | 01:08 |
| Bachstelze | anything with php-cli | 01:08 |
| Bachstelze | like php --version | 01:08 |
| Bachstelze | with mcrypt installed | 01:08 |
| Bachstelze | there's also a bunch of other extensions with the same problem | 01:09 |
| lfaraone | Bachstelze: I see. | 01:10 |
| lfaraone | Bachstelze: It might be useful to report the problems when they occur to the upstream maintainers, as well as Debian. Carrying an ubuntu delta for a bunch of packages just to fix deprecation warnings seems a bit overkill if you can get upstream or Debian to cooperate. | 01:11 |
| lfaraone | *as to Debian | 01:11 |
| Bachstelze | it's fiit was fixed in Debian in 5.3.2-1 | 01:12 |
| lfaraone | Bachstelze: Okay. The reason it was not fixed in Ubuntu was because the patch provided by the original reporter did not fix the problem. | 01:14 |
| lfaraone | (Reading bug 540208, from what I can tell) | 01:14 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 540208 in php-mcrypt "deprecated comment in mcrypt.ini" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/540208 | 01:14 |
| Bachstelze | lfaraone: you can also mark #577591 as a duplicate (or Invalid) | 01:23 |
| lfaraone | Bachstelze: already done. | 01:24 |
| Bachstelze | no, you did 577627 ;) | 01:27 |

| * hyperair wonders when the debian autosync begins | 08:04 | |
| imbrandon | hyperair: i'd assume sometime monday durring UDS when someone has time to turn the bits on | 08:05 |
| hyperair | oh cool | 08:05 |
| imbrandon | maybe later today if someone is stuck in transit or got there early | 08:05 |
| imbrandon | but again this is just my guess , from prior cycles | 08:06 |
| imbrandon | but its normaly very very soon after the "archive open" email comes | 08:06 |
| imbrandon | they also may be waiting for the default gcc discussion too | 08:07 |
| hyperair | i see. | 08:08 |

| om26er | how do I know which package is synced from debian and which is not?. after packaging a newer version if I get 'we sync this from debian' thats not good. | 10:38 |
| nigelbabu | om26er: packages without ubuntu specific changes are synced from debian | 10:54 |
| om26er | nigelbabu, that would make it more than 80%packages? | 10:55 |
| nigelbabu | om26er: yup | 10:55 |
| om26er | thanks nigelbabu | 10:55 |
| BlackZ | if there are bugs in some files of the debian package which I'm packaging from scratch, is it better to apply a patch for the files or modify the files instead? (license: GPL3 +) | 12:01 |
| BlackZ | s/debian package/source | 12:02 |
| astraljava | BlackZ: From what I understand, you should be patching, as you're not upstream, are you? | 12:06 |
| BlackZ | astraljava: no | 12:08 |
| BlackZ | astraljava: OK, I've patched it. Thanks ;) | 12:11 |
| imbrandon | ScottK: can you prod a package through binary NEW ? | 12:12 |
| imbrandon | the source package is the same as before, it just builds a few more binarys now ( from a debian sync ) | 12:13 |
| imbrandon | btw hopefully your flight(s) were uneventful :) | 12:14 |
| imbrandon | i saw crimsun and a few others wernt so lucky | 12:14 |
| ScottK | imbrandon: I made it. What package? | 12:57 |
| imbrandon | ScottK: opensync | 13:11 |
| imbrandon | is the source package | 13:11 |
| * ScottK looks | 13:11 | |
| ScottK | Love the debian/changelog entry. | 13:14 |
| azeem | yeah | 13:14 |
| azeem | one of my favourite messups! | 13:15 |
| imbrandon | heh what part? | 13:18 |
| azeem | http://packages.qa.debian.org/o/opensync/news/20100206T230242Z.html | 13:18 |
| imbrandon | ahh | 13:20 |
| nigelbabu | oh what a messup indeed! | 13:20 |
| nigelbabu | and what is 'unreleased'! | 13:20 |
| azeem | it's a secret Debian distribution which will reclaim victory from Ubuntu | 13:22 |
| azeem | got accidently leaked through this upload | 13:22 |
| nigelbabu | yes, and they tend to not have changelog entires to confuse us :D | 13:23 |
| ScottK | imbrandon: Done. | 13:23 |
| imbrandon | ScottK: ty | 13:24 |
| nigelbabu | azeem: I wonder, isn't lintian supposed to catch such type of mistakes? | 13:26 |
| azeem | the guy probably didn't run lintian | 13:27 |
| azeem | imbrandon, ScottK: http://packages.qa.debian.org/o/opensync/news/20100509T130257Z.html | 14:03 |
| ScottK | Revisonism ... | 14:05 |
| ScottK | We'll get it on the next autosync run. | 14:05 |
| azeem | ScottK: there was a subversion tag of -3 with those changes already, so... | 14:06 |
| azeem | plus it fixes an RC bug | 14:06 |
| ScottK | It will come in the next autosync run. | 14:06 |
| azeem | sure | 14:06 |

| laymansterms | Hi, I need to get a dependency packaged for a piece of software that I work on. The dependency I need is very similar to another package that is already in universe. What is the best way to get in contact with the packager? The package in question is pyclutter-gtk. | 19:49 |
| nigelbabu | laymansterms: look at changelog and get in touch with last updater | 19:49 |
| nigelbabu | especially if that person has @ubuntu or @debian email ID | 19:50 |
| laymansterms | nigelbabu, the ChangeLog for pyclutter-gtk says it was generated by 'configure.' Does that matter? | 19:51 |
| laymansterms | or should I still try to contact that person? | 19:51 |
| maco | ChangeLog? no, look at debian/changelog | 19:51 |
| nigelbabu | um, yeah debian/changelog | 19:51 |
| laymansterms | oh, oops. Sorry, I forget about the debian changelog. | 19:52 |
| * laymansterms has very little packaging experience. | 19:52 | |
| laymansterms | nigelbabu, the email in the changelog is a debian email address. Do you know of a good channel to ask in? Something equivalent to #ubuntu-motu for Debian? | 19:54 |
| nigelbabu | #debian-mentors on oftc | 19:54 |
| hyperair | someone with a notebook with one battery please tell me what battery number you have (/sys/class/power_supply/BATN) | 19:54 |
| ScottK | laymansterms: If the package comes straight from Debian unmodified, I'd email the maintainer | 19:54 |
| hyperair | apparently mine's BAT1, but conky hardcodes BAT0 | 19:54 |
| laymansterms | ScottK, okay, I'll give that a shot. | 19:55 |
| ScottK | hyperair: BAT1 on a Dell mini 10v. | 19:55 |
| laymansterms | nigelbabu, thanks. | 19:55 |
| hyperair | ScottK: thanks. | 19:55 |
| hyperair | anyone else? | 19:55 |
| nigelbabu | hyperair: one sec | 19:56 |
| maco | ScottK: so, what country are you in? | 19:56 |
| nigelbabu | hyperair: BAT0 | 19:56 |
| ScottK | maco: Belgium. | 19:56 |
| hyperair | nigelbabu: interesting. | 19:56 |
| hyperair | nigelbabu: so only some computers are affected. whee. | 19:57 |
| maco | ScottK: ok so you made it then. dan's plane got a flat tire last night and wasnt allowed to cross the ocean. i think he's hanging out at the airport on standby right now | 19:57 |
| BlackZ | could a MOTU review/advocate http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/p/autotrash ? thanks | 19:57 |
| nigelbabu | maco: oh, dan still doesn't have flight? | 19:57 |
| maco | nigelbabu: well he came home last night and was still here when i went out this morning | 19:58 |
| ScottK | maco: Ouch. | 19:58 |
| maco | but he's gone now, so i assume at airport | 19:58 |
| imbrandon | hyperair: mine also is BAT1 | 20:04 |
| imbrandon | hyperair: toshiba , old intel celeron m based laptop | 20:04 |
| imbrandon | ScottK: are autosyncs on/running now ? | 20:06 |
| ScottK | I think it was run the first time earlier toda. | 20:06 |
| ScottK | y | 20:06 |
| ScottK | Not sure how it worked out. | 20:07 |
| imbrandon | k | 20:07 |
| imbrandon | how often does merges.u.c update ? | 20:07 |
| geser | imbrandon: cjwatson started one | 20:07 |
| imbrandon | geser: great | 20:07 |
| ScottK | imbrandon: I think /6 hoours | 20:09 |
| imbrandon | k | 20:09 |
| imbrandon | trying to plan for my next 2 days, gonna be offline for 4 hours chunks 3x over the next 2 days | 20:09 |
| imbrandon | so i'm trying to stack a bit of "offline" stuff to do | 20:09 |
| geser | the buildds are busy the next three days at least | 20:10 |
| imbrandon | oh i'm sure | 20:10 |
| imbrandon | i got some "real" work to do also ( as in my day job ) so i'll likely do some of that too | 20:11 |
| imbrandon | ScottK: i tell you i switched companies ? | 20:12 |
| ScottK | imbrandon: I thought you started your own store, or is that just a side job? | 20:13 |
| imbrandon | ScottK: thats just a side thing , online only | 20:13 |
| imbrandon | ScottK: i went to work for the company BenC is working at now, actualy working on the same project ;) | 20:14 |
| ScottK | Ah. | 20:14 |
| ScottK | I see. | 20:14 |
| ScottK | No, you hadn't mentioned it. | 20:14 |
| imbrandon | yes, its really a quite cool project, and its based on Ubuntu LTS , woot | 20:15 |
| imbrandon | its mostly a 4 to 5 guy team, he is doing the drive/kernel stuff, i got the front end, and there there is some SA and QA guys | 20:16 |
| imbrandon | driver* | 20:16 |
| laymansterms | hello again, is there a Ubuntu meta package that is helpful for installing helpful packaging tools? I feel like there is but I can't remember the name of it. devscripts or something. | 20:25 |
| c_korn | laymansterms: correct, http://packages.ubuntu.com/lucid/devscripts | 20:26 |
| laymansterms | c_korn, I just did an apt-cache search for "packaging" and saw ubuntu-dev-tools. Do you know the difference between devscripts and ubuntu-dev-tools? | 20:27 |
| hyperair | laymansterms: and ubuntu-dev-tools | 20:27 |
| hyperair | laymansterms: devscripts originates from debian. | 20:28 |
| laymansterms | I'd like to use bzr builddeb... is that plugin in one of those packages? | 20:28 |
| hyperair | laymansterms: ubuntu-dev-tools is ubuntu-specific. | 20:28 |
| hyperair | bzr builddeb is a package of its own afaik | 20:28 |
| imbrandon | laymansterms: use both, devscripts is more generic but required and u-d-t makes your life easier ;) | 20:28 |
| laymansterms | imbrandon, ubuntu-dev-tools says it replaces devscripts | 20:30 |
| imbrandon | laymansterms: yea it probably has some of the updated scripts , it used to depend on it | 20:30 |
| imbrandon | now probably encompases it | 20:30 |
| laymansterms | it's weird: Depends: devscripts Conflicts: devscripts Replaces: devscripts | 20:31 |
| laymansterms | (lines from apt-cache depends ubuntu-dev-tools) | 20:31 |
| imbrandon | hum | 20:46 |
| crimsun | imbrandon: congrats. Good to be able to hook people up | 20:58 |
| imbrandon | crimsun: ty ty | 20:58 |
| imbrandon | crimsun: i already got some of the hardware in hand to install monday, looks like its going to be a fun project | 20:59 |
| crimsun | nice | 20:59 |
| imbrandon | crimsun: did you finaly make it , or still waiting somewhere in-between | 21:02 |
| crimsun | imbrandon: I'm still at the origin; our rebooked flight is scheduled for 1715 departure from Dulles | 21:09 |
| crimsun | four of us are going to be dragging at the opening meeting | 21:10 |
| imbrandon | heh i bet, that sucks | 21:10 |
