| the-dude | cjwatson: if you are interested im using Ubuntu preseesing to deploy desktops in a hostpital | 10:58 |
|---|---|---|
| cjwatson | nice, I like being socially useful :) | 11:11 |
| the-dude | we already won best business case :) | 11:13 |
| ev | Of course this also makes us socially responsible. ;) "Bug in the Ubuntu installer leaves 23 dead." | 11:13 |
| ev | Perhaps that humor was a bit too dark | 11:14 |
| the-dude | ev: we don't use them for critical stuff (yet) | 11:15 |
| * ev breathes a sigh of relief | 11:15 | |
| the-dude | *beep beep beep kernel panic* | 11:15 |
| ev | lol | 11:16 |
| utente | I have problem whit wubi on vista home | 12:04 |
| utente | You have a solution? | 12:04 |
| utente | I usa ubuntu 10.4 32bit ISO | 12:05 |
| xnox | ev, so foundation team meetings are at 15:00UTC during Summer time in Britain? http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=UTC+time says it's 16:00UTC now but the meeting has finished.... =( missed half of it | 17:02 |
| ev | xnox: the meetings are at 4pm BST, yes | 17:05 |
| ev | it's always 5pm UTC | 17:05 |
| xnox | great =) I'll update the wiki then | 17:05 |
| ev | does it say otherwise on a wiki page somewhere? | 17:05 |
| ev | ah, please do | 17:06 |
| xnox | yes & on the fridge calendar =) | 17:06 |
| * xnox reading logs | 17:06 | |
| cjwatson | 4pm BST is 3pm UTC not 5pm | 17:06 |
| ev | for what it's worth, you can normally catch what you missed by reading the mootbot logs, but alas I forgot to do a #startmeeting | 17:06 |
| ev | err whoops | 17:07 |
| xnox | so is the meeting set in UK time or UTC time. Eg do you meet at 4pm UK during winter? | 17:08 |
| cjwatson | I think it's been 4pm UK time for quite a while now, inc. during winter | 17:10 |
| xnox | kk | 17:14 |
| xnox | nothing interesting really happened =) just lightning rounds and I've been there for the i686 issue =) | 17:15 |
| ev | heh | 17:46 |
| ev | our meetings tend to be a bit dry | 17:46 |
| ev | xnox: I don't know if I'll get to your branch proposal today. Definitely tomorrow though. How's the CLI frontend coming along? | 17:47 |
| xnox | ev, it's brain dead right now. It can do a stick without persistence and if both --iso & --dev is supplied | 17:57 |
| xnox | but currently it's an extension on-top of gtk interface =) cause it was easier for me to test that | 17:57 |
| xnox | so I need to clean it up to make it not depend on python-gtk2 ;-) | 17:57 |
| xnox | ev, about the package rename. Are we renaming source package as well? (Consequences being that we will end up with _two_ packages to track in lp.net/ubuntu/+source/$package) | 17:58 |
| ev | heh | 17:59 |
| ev | I think so | 17:59 |
| * xnox "ugly but works" is general advice on the gsoc-students private mailing list | 18:00 | |
| ev | but perhaps we should check with them | 18:00 |
| ev | haha | 18:00 |
| xnox | ev, "them" debian or foundations team | 18:00 |
| ev | debian | 18:00 |
| ev | if we can avoid it, great | 18:00 |
| xnox | cause if we rename source package as well then we will need to adjust package-sets in ubuntu for all the cd's | 18:00 |
| ev | if not, I won't put up a fight | 18:00 |
| ev | just mutter under my breath ;) | 18:00 |
| ev | xnox: that's easy - I can sort out the seeds | 18:01 |
| ev | http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeedManagement if you're curious | 18:01 |
| xnox | =) read that long time ago. Didn't play around with command line tools | 18:01 |
| ev | not renaming the source package saves us having to migrate the bugs | 18:01 |
| xnox | ev, ok but we will not rename the lp.net/usb-creator? | 18:01 |
| ev | cjwatson: didn't you automate that for oem-config, by the way? | 18:01 |
| ev | I don't suppose you still have the code? | 18:02 |
| xnox | ev, yeah i really don't want to rename source package | 18:02 |
| ev | xnox: I don't know how easy it is to rename projects. If we have to cross that bridge, we can talk to the launchpad guys | 18:02 |
| xnox | ev, i did renaming projects on launchpad | 18:03 |
| ev | but yeah, ideally I'd like to do the bare minimum here | 18:03 |
| ev | oh? | 18:03 |
| xnox | after you are happy & migrated bits you want. LOSA wipe the old project and set it as alias to new one | 18:03 |
| ev | ah | 18:03 |
| cjwatson | I think I just wrote a dodgy throwaway launchpadlib script, sorry | 18:03 |
| ev | no worries | 18:03 |
| xnox | see "gnomesword" -> "xiphos" & "bzr-rebase" -> "bzr-rewrite" | 18:03 |
| cjwatson | it didn't take all that long | 18:03 |
| ev | okay, so here's what I think: | 18:03 |
| ev | lets see if Debian really want us to rename the source package | 18:04 |
| xnox | ev, are you gonna do that? =))))) | 18:04 |
| ev | if they do, we'll do that and migrate all the bugs using some dodgy lplib code | 18:04 |
| ev | but we'll leave the project name alone (we can change the title) | 18:04 |
| xnox | sounds good =) | 18:05 |
| ev | either way, we'll change the seeds to use startup-disk-creator-gtk-my-god-this-is-a-bit-silly-isn't-it | 18:05 |
| ev | ;) | 18:05 |
| ev | cjwatson: noted; thanks | 18:05 |
| xnox | ev, I can write really cunning debian/control generating code using m4 (reusing gcc packaging stuff) to keep debian at random names they want & keep ours as it is | 18:06 |
| ev | lol | 18:06 |
| xnox | and add nasty easter eggs when the package is build with DEB_VENDOR=Debian =))))) | 18:06 |
| ev | I'm just happy that Alexander is okay with startup-disk-creator | 18:06 |
| ev | a few more rounds of bikeshedding would've drove me insane | 18:07 |
| * xnox not sure how that will help with "improving" Debian-Ubuntu relationship though | 18:07 | |
| ev | haha | 18:07 |
| ev | by the way, I'm on vacation all next week | 18:08 |
| xnox | ev, but we don't really want transitional packages to appear in Debian. So some debian/control mangling will be needed | 18:08 |
| ev | I'll still be contactable via email though | 18:08 |
| ev | hmm, good point | 18:08 |
| xnox | =) read the meeting log. Doing something nice =) or just horizontal-position 24x7 in front of TV with laptop, tablet and a few other cool gadgets? | 18:09 |
| ev | my dad is visiting from the states | 18:10 |
| ev | so I'm going to take the opportunity to do some more proper exploration of London | 18:10 |
| ev | which I only seem to get around to when I have guests | 18:10 |
| xnox | cool =) love London =) i live in Hull, Yorkshire but i've been to almost every corner of london | 18:10 |
| ev | plus he loves Colin Dexter, so we'll head up to Oxford | 18:11 |
| xnox | my sister might be moving to London if she gets the job =) and I might be moving in with her, just to live in London ;-) | 18:11 |
| ev | xnox: you must forgive my generally lack of British geography skills, but if you're in London at any point, we shouldn't pass on the opportunity to meet up for a drink | 18:12 |
| xnox | ev, Oxford's a complete dump =) | 18:12 |
| ev | never been, but it's more for the ability for him to have a clearer image when he's reading :) | 18:13 |
| xnox | ev, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OKuHYO9TM5A | 18:14 |
| xnox | =)))) the only reason I'm proud to be in University of Hull =) | 18:14 |
| ev | OH GOD NO, NOT BLACKADDER! | 18:14 |
| xnox | I referee National Volleyball League so I have been around England a lot =) | 18:15 |
| ev | love Fry and Laurie, hate Atkinson. | 18:15 |
| * xnox +1 | 18:15 | |
| ev | :) | 18:15 |
| xnox | well off to program cause Britain's got talent is soon =) | 18:16 |
| ev | see ya | 18:16 |
| xnox | ev, updated https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FoundationsTeam & fixed time on fridge.ubuntu.com/calendar it should now display correct UTC time during winter & summer | 18:39 |
| xnox | there is a joke about why it's UK time on the wiki page =) | 18:39 |
| ev | haha, nice one | 18:43 |
| ev | right, I'm out for the evening | 18:44 |
| ev | have a good one! | 18:44 |
| xnox | =) | 18:44 |
