| didrocks | good morning dholbach | 08:11 |
| dholbach | hi didrocks | 08:11 |
| ajmitch | didrocks: oh, I gave a talk at the local python user group about quickly, people were impressed :) | 08:11 |
| didrocks | ajmitch: sweet! I hope you tell them to join #quickly in case of any trouble (0.4.3 will be out next week as an SRU for lucid btw ;)). Thanks :) | 08:13 |
| LucidFox | You know, when I do a Google search for Wayland, the numbet of results incorrectly calling it an X server is shocking | 08:22 |
| LucidFox | Granted, those are mostly news articles, and journalists aren't generally famous for doing their research. | 08:23 |
| RAOF | LucidFox: The git repo summarises it best: “Wayland: a tiny something” | 08:34 |
| LucidFox | Heh, indeed | 08:34 |
| LucidFox | I wonder, however, if Wayland is merely the next "sooo much less bloated than X" server that will eventually be doomed to obscurity | 08:35 |
| LucidFox | the last commit in that git is March 30 | 08:36 |
| RAOF | As I understand it, it's not likely to ever be more than a skunkworks “how little do we need in a display server” project, although it's not unlikely that techniques & technology from it will end up in a future Xorg. | 08:41 |
| LucidFox | Bwuh :( | 08:42 |
| LucidFox | I really would like to see a move to a leaner windowing system, with a rootless X server for legacy applications | 08:46 |
| LucidFox | (i.e. like what Mac OS X does, from what I understand) | 08:46 |
| LucidFox | sadly, looks like X will remain in its place for years to come | 08:47 |
| pwnguin | didnt someone patch Xorg to run rootless? | 08:50 |
| pwnguin | or am i thinking of a different kind of rootless | 08:51 |
| LucidFox | rootless means running X clients in another window system, basically | 08:52 |
| RAOF | Yeah, X itself isn't going anywhere. Legacy applications FTW! | 08:52 |
| LucidFox | like Xming on Windows, which creates windows inside the native window manager | 08:52 |
| LucidFox | Mac OS X has a similar approach, it renders X clients inside native windows. The problem is, for Linux, the native window system is... X. | 08:53 |
| RAOF | The X protocol bits might end up being a loadable module of the server; there seems to be a broad “yeah, that's what I'd do if I had the time to hack on it” feeling on the Xorg list. | 08:54 |
| LucidFox | Well, as long as you support Xlib, you support all the ugly legacy protocol stuff. | 08:55 |
| RAOF | Yeah. | 08:55 |
| RAOF | But no one uses the original X protocol for drawing; you use RENDER. | 08:56 |
| RAOF | There's a lot of that protocol stuff that is basically never touched. Font servers, anyone? | 08:57 |
| RAOF | In other news: yay! sbuild works on Maverick again! | 08:58 |
| LucidFox | Yes, but Xlib doesn't know that modern-age toolkits only use a small subset of the X functionality. So ultimately it will boil down to porting GTK and Qt (at least) to another backend. | 09:01 |
| RAOF | What's the difference between “GTK uses a subset of Xlib + the modern extensions” and “GTK uses a different backend, and Xlib still exists”? | 09:03 |
| LucidFox | Because using Xlib will force the Next Gen Leaner Meaner Display Server into X compatibility mode? | 09:04 |
| RAOF | I don't see why - the modern extensions can do whatever they want. | 09:05 |
| LucidFox | Well, (in this completely hypothetical scenario) Xlib would still use the X protocol, correct? | 09:07 |
| RAOF | Yes | 09:07 |
| RAOF | I guess my question is: what's so terrible about the X11 protocol that iterative extensions can't fix :) | 09:08 |
| LucidFox | That it's X. A bloated, 26-year-old monolithic mess of hacks and extensions designed to fit a square peg into a round hole. | 09:09 |
| LucidFox | If something advertises itself as an X server, it means there's a lot of stuff that nobody uses yet the server must support. | 09:10 |
| RAOF | That code can safely sit and mellow. Or concievably be dynamically loaded. | 09:11 |
| RAOF | Also, doesn't _quite_ describe current reality; there's some X stuff that Xorg doesn't actually support (Zaphod, for example) | 09:14 |
| nzmm | just wondering, if i switch my source.list from lucid to maverick, i get maverick, i have seen few updates... | 09:19 |
| nzmm | whats the 'official' way to upgrade to a dev version? | 09:19 |
| nzmm | upgrade-manager -d? | 09:20 |
| zyga | nzmm, yes | 09:20 |
| LucidFox | update-manager -d, but yes | 09:20 |
| nzmm | ok cool | 09:20 |
| zyga | nzmm, do-release-upgrade -d | 09:20 |
| nzmm | ta | 09:20 |
| zyga | nzmm, it might not be enabled yet though ymmv | 09:20 |
| RAOF | Except that won't work yet, because it hasn't been turned on :) | 09:20 |
| nzmm | yep just saw | 09:21 |
| nzmm | so doing a replace all in sources.list is ok? | 09:21 |
| * ajmitch should probably try an upgrade to lucid from hardy now :) | 09:21 | |
| arand | nzmm: I think it actaully has been enabled, mvo mentioned it in +1 before... | 09:23 |
| nzmm | arand: oh, well maybe the fact i already replaced_all kinda screwed my ability to do that now :( | 09:57 |
| nzmm | but in prinicpal replace_all in sources list is ok? | 09:57 |
| arand | nzmm: Well, that's what do-release-upgrade does, afaik, along with disabling your PPAs | 09:58 |
| nzmm | oh... | 09:59 |
| nzmm | ok | 09:59 |
| nzmm | thnx | 09:59 |

| dpm | hi cjwatson. Do you happen to know if there is anything needed to do to a package to enable translations of the long and short descriptions from the control file? I know translations are fetched from the Translations-$LANG files from the archive, but I'm not sure if just dropping translations in the right archive folder is enough or if there is additional work required on the package | 11:40 |
| cjwatson | I confess I'm not entirely sure what the DDTP stuff involve | 11:40 |
| cjwatson | s | 11:40 |
| cjwatson | but I've never heard of any package-specific work being required | 11:40 |
| cjwatson | I thought that there was a custom upload job somewhere that dealt with it | 11:41 |
| dpm | cjwatson, ok, thanks. I'll wait until mvo comes back tomorrow to ask for more details, as he's the one doing the DDTP uploads. I couldn't find any documentation on how this works | 11:42 |
| cjwatson | it's one of the bits of the archive I'm almost completely unfamiliar with :) | 11:42 |
| cjwatson | although I think there are a couple of archive bugs open that will necessitate me figuring it out | 11:43 |
| dpm | :) | 11:43 |

| flupke | hello, I'm making my first package, could someone explain me the "Starndards-Version" field of control files ? Can I just leave the "3.8.333" that I found in another package and forget about it ? | 20:40 |
| ebroder | flupke: That's the version of Debian Policy that your package is compliant with | 20:40 |

| slangasek | flupke: do you mean 3.8.3? You should never see 3.8.333 in that field; when packaging you should use the current Debian Policy version number there, and make sure in the process that your package /complies/ with that version too :) | 20:41 |

| geser | arand: most likely it's still in the moderation queue | 21:46 |
| ajmitch | I don't think there are many people who do moderation on u-d, sadly | 21:46 |
| arand | Then that queue must be fairly long by now... I reckon. | 21:47 |
| arand | I mean it would be simple enough to just state that ubuntu-devel is only for registered, and -discuss is for all else, if it's in practice "impossible" to post anything to -devel anyways it's likely better to inform that this is the case.
