ScottKTime sequenced activity history.02:14
arandimbrandon: awesomeness! (ScottK's answer is short and to the point), It's (afaik) a back-end that creates associations, time, program, place, activity, so that you later on could find out, say, what Kind of music you listened to whilst chatting with a particular person... Is one of the things it can do.02:47

BlackZhow can I delete an old deactivated key from the ubuntu's keyserver?08:58
jpdsBlackZ: That's impossible.08:59
BlackZjpds: ok, BTW I have updated the key (e-mail), but I can still seen the old e-mail on ubuntu's keyserver, is that normal?09:01
jpdsDid you remove the old email?09:01
BlackZyeah09:01
jpdsYep, that's also impossible.09:01
jpdsYou can only add to keyservers, never remove.09:02
BlackZjpds: also, I have signed some uploaded packages with the old key and e-mail, is that a problem?09:02

chrisccoulsonhas nobody else done it yet?12:22
chrisccoulsoni will look at that in a bit12:22
arandchrisccoulson: Nope :( seems few sponsors are around here on the weekends, or they just didn't like me..12:23
BlackZarand: I'm sure your work will be sponsored soon, keep in mind you're in a queue :)12:28
arandBlackZ: Yea, true. # of bugs with patches are a hefty amount.12:33

BlackZerr, arand - sorry, ara12:34
=== nobawk is now known as nobawk|away
BlackZarand: why is the bug still assigned to you? why is it "Fix Released" instead of "Confirmed", for example?12:43
arandBlackZ: Fixed in maverick with version 1.2.7, this is for hardy..lucid, what's the policy as far ass assignments go actually, I though, since I was "in charge" of packing the SVN fix, it would be appropriate, no?12:46
arand*as *thought12:47
BlackZarand: since ~ubuntu-sponsors is subscribed, you have to follow https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SponsorshipProcess12:50
BlackZfor example. "Do not assign a bug to anyone if it needs sponsorship."12:50
BlackZs/./,12:52
arandBlackZ: Ah, hmm, I was going by that I've had been assigned to bugs (by others) in similar cases before. Right, so unassigning then.12:54

kobriengreetings. I packaged my app and it compiles fine. I just need  to figure out how to get it to place the compiled files into  /usr/bin and such. Do I do it in debian/rules? Please advise16:32
=== andreas_ is now known as anoteng
persiakobrien: So, there's two ways to do it.  If you're the upstream developer, it's best to do it in your build script, with an install rule.  For example, `make install`16:52
persiaIf you're not upstream, you can work around a buggy set of build scripts with dh_install16:52

micahgsiretart: should I reassign the gxine bug to you?19:15
micahgsiretart: wrapper looks fine I think it should go to maverick first though19:21
lfaraoneOne of my mails was flagged as possible spam to the mailing list. Shouldn't we set SpamAssassin to look kindly on GPG-signed mails? :)19:24
siretartmicahg: feel free to do so. what about copying it from lucid-proposed to maverick?19:28
siretarthow do ppl feel breaking maverick's ffmpeg at this point? ;-)19:31
micahgsiretart: I currently cannot push packages yet.  As for copying, idk what the current policy is, but I think that fixes are supposed to go into the devel release first again19:32
micahgsiretart: what will break with ffmpeg?19:32
siretartmicahg: upload ffmpeg 0.6 will probably break quite some applications that link against it19:33
micahgsiretart: ah19:33
siretartno idea how severe the breakage will be, I did not do testbuilds19:33
siretartbut I guess I should do so in any case. soon.19:33
micahgsiretart: so, do you want me to find a sponsor for gxine, or do you want to push/19:34
siretartI can do the upload later today19:35
micahgsiretart: k, thanks, I'll reassign to you19:35
micahgsiretart: I'll subscribe to the package to watch for regressions19:37
siretartgreat, thanks!19:37

toabctlhi20:14
toabctli want to build a package with pbuilder but have a dependecy on a local package version. how to solve this?20:15
tumbleweedtoabctl: easiest way around that is to create a simple local package repository20:16
toabctlok20:17
toabctlthx20:17
geseror login into pbuilder, copy all needed files inside and build there manually20:17
tumbleweedyes, that's easier for once-off20:18
geserI do it when I need to do it only once (was too lazy to setup a repo for just one build)20:18
toabctlgeser, where is the pbuilder .tgz file extracted?20:20
toabctli got the following error when i use "pdebuild": Aptitude couldn't satisfy the build dependencies20:20
geserusually below /var/cache/pbuilder/build/ (see the output when calling pbuilder)20:20
toabctlgeser, /var/cache/pbuilder/build is empty20:21
geseryes as it gets cleaned up after pbuilder has finished20:21
toabctlReading task descriptions...20:21
toabctlAptitude couldn't satisfy the build dependencies20:21
toabctlE: pbuilder-satisfydepends failed.20:21
toabctlI: Copying back the cached apt archive contents20:21
toabctlI: unmounting dev/pts filesystem20:21
toabctlI: unmounting proc filesystem20:21
toabctlI: cleaning the build env20:21
toabctlI: removing directory /var/cache/pbuilder/build//11519 and its subdirectories20:21
toabctlgeser, tumbleweed : that's my output. i try to build a new version of syncevolution for DIST=sid under ubuntu lucid20:22
geser"pbuilder login" and you get a directory below /var/cache/pbuilder/build as long as don't exit the pbuilder20:22
toabctlgeser, ah. that works. thanks. and do you know what i can do against the error?20:23
gesercheck which dependency couldn't get resolved (and why) and fix it20:24
toabctlpbuilder-satisfydepends-dummy: Depends: libsynthesis-dev (>= 3.4.0.5~) but it is not going to be installed.20:25
toabctlgeser, what does the 4.3.0.5~ mean (especially the ~) ?20:25
geserthis is a versioned dependency on libsynthesis-dev. The package needs a version greater than the specified20:26
geserand the ~ has a special meaning in Debian version numbers (it sorts below any other char)20:27
tumbleweedthe ~ allows it to be satisfied by a backport. Backports have ~ to make 3.4.0.5~bpo a lower version htan 3.4.0.520:28
=== xfg is now known as zul
toabctlhm. then i don't understand the error. libsynthesis-dev is available in version 3.4.0.5 in debian sid.20:29
geserlogin into your sid pbuilder and try to install it. don't know about aptitude, but apt doesn't tell the real error (down the dependency chain) but only that a dependency of the package you want installed, can't get installed20:31
toabctlgeser, i had to do a "apt-get update" before i can install the package. pbuilder doesn't do this automatically?20:33
geserno, "pbuilder update" does it (updates the whole base.tgz including the Packages files)20:33
toabctlah. "pbuilder update" does this.20:34
toabctlgeser, thanks!:)20:34
tumbleweedyou can add a pbuilder hook to apt-get update before each build20:35
tumbleweedthere's such a script in the examples directory, IIRC20:35

bdrungdch is not able to sponsor a changelog20:52
bdrungbut i am not a perl hacker20:53

bdrungari-tczew: you need them?20:54
geserbdrung: DEBFULLNAME="foo bar" DEBEMAIL="foo@baz" dch ... doesn't work?20:54
persiaNobody ever needs uploads.20:54
fabrice_spbdrung, I had to add a -k option to the ack-sync script to pass the signing key to syncpackage20:55
persiaUpload count isn't especially meaningful, especially if those are from syncs.20:55
ari-tczewyea, same method like uploading merges20:56
bdrunggeser: DEBFULLNAME and DEBEMAIL should be only set for this command. let me look at the code...20:56
geserand if one needs those fakesyncs for the sponsored upload count, then I'm not sure if one is ready to apply20:57
bdrunggeser: he has done enough (sponsored 40 - 50 packages for him)20:57
geserit was more generally speaking20:59
fabrice_spbdrung, should I push the change or you have something similar locally?20:59
geserand in this case the few not counted fakesyncs shouldn't matter20:59
bdrungfabrice_sp: you can push - i have no local changes20:59

ari-tczewbdrung: okay! fine!21:56
SpamapSguidance for naming a perl package.. if the CPAN module is Memcached::libmemcached ... the package still must be named this rather silly name:   libmemcached-libmemcached-perl .. yes?23:13
JontheEchidnaI have seen libxml-libxml-perl in the archive23:15
JontheEchidnaSo there is precedent, even if it is silly23:16
SpamapSI actually like it23:18
SpamapSI've installed many a perl module just by typing the transformed name after apt-get install.. its like a pleasnt surprise "yes, this is going to work today"23:19
ScottKSpamapS: libmemcached-libmemcached-perl is correct.  If you want to get it into Ubuntu, it would probably be easier to talk to the pkg-perl people in Debian since they sponsor new perl stuff all the time.23:21
SpamapSScottK: will do.23:25
arandIn metacity, (and other gnome packages?) If you add a patch, should it be added before 90_autotools.patch and 99_ltmain_as-needed.patch in the series?23:37
pochuarand: yes23:42
pochu90_autotools is to regenerate autotools file because of other patches, so it goes last, and 99_ltmain_as-needed goes after 90_autotools because it modifies a file autogenerated by 90_autotools, so if it went before, it would have no effect23:44
arandpochu: aha, hm, is this documented anywhere? (news to me at least)23:44
arandpochu: Right, it makes a lot of sense with the numbering, although, I've so far simply followed the ubuntu packaging guide by the letter, and used "quilt push -a && quilt new" regardless (slightly annoyed that some evil person had already taken all numbers in the patch prefixes :D), do over and do right, it seems...23:51
pochuyou don't want to do that in these cases then :)23:54
