[01:52] am I supposed to have a makefile and install file? [01:52] I dont have either [01:52] my software takes like 240mb too [01:52] but the .deb has only 1.7kb for some reason [01:53] SpamapS: sudo pbuilder update --override-config rather. [01:53] I guess my question is, how do I turn my application into a .deb package [01:59] samliu: the @ubuntu-packaging channel exists with a focus on helping people learn how to make debs [01:59] you may get more success asking there [02:09] oh thanks [02:09] :D [02:15] What is DIF in Ubuntu terms? I try to Google 'Ubuntu DIF' and it asks me if I mean 'diff'. [02:16] It was used in this context, "If it's included before DIF we should be able to sync/merge it over", so I assume it must be some kind of time point/timeframe [02:19] Oh! Never mind. It's Debian Import Freeze. === nhandler_ is now known as nhandler === ajmitch_ is now known as ajmitch [03:09] anyone happen to know if there is a way to mess with lvm via a library instead of just the commands directly?

That'll have 2.6.35 (which has a bunch of ironlake fixes in it), a new X server, and a new intel DDX. [06:43] Well, 2.6.35-rc1 :) [06:43] hrm [06:43] ooh maverick's got .35?

[11:05] apw: right, you can specify it there [11:05] tseliot, whats the syntax? i found how to make it for exactly 2.6.35 [11:05] apw: something like [11:06] PATCH[0]="vga_arbiter_workaround.patch" [11:06] PATCH_MATCH[0]="^2.6.35" [11:06] is that not just equal to though?

[13:44] apw: is the final dash in PATCH_MATCH[3]="^2.6.(3[5-9]|[4-9][0-9])-" a typo? [13:44] ari-tczew: if syncs are not performed regularly enough this should be fixed [13:45] tseliot, the version numbers are the full kernel abi numbers so ... 2.6.35-1 etc [13:45] so i added the - to ensure i matched the entire number [13:46] dholbach: upload package by script reduces all time to waiting for archive admins [13:47] ari-tczew: the archive admins double-check stuff and know if there's other important builds going on, I don't want to override them if it's not super urgent and necessary [13:48] apw: I think it should be enough to match the kernel version [13:48] tseliot, am ambivalent either way, the version is the -k parameter which is always that full form right?

[17:07] mathiaz: it will be overwritten when 30.2 is accepted [17:07] slangasek: ok - so nothing is required for 30.1 [17:08] mathiaz: only if you were worried that it would be incorrectly copied to -updates before 30.2 is accepted; in that case you should take care to tag as 'verification-failed' whichever of the SRU bugs are causing you to reroll [17:08] slangasek: right - I've already added the verification-failed tag to the SRU bug we're reverting in 30.2 [17:09] mathiaz: then that's everything :) [17:09] slangasek: great - thanks for helping out [17:09] n/p === hrw is now known as hrw|gone === yofel_ is now known as yofel [17:26] slangasek: eucalyptus 30.2 uploaded to lucid-proposed - if you could have a look at it it would be helpful as we'd like to start the verification process today === beuno-lunch is now known as beuno [17:36] hi all [17:37] i'm investigating what is required for me to start contributing from a dev perspective.

LP doesn't list a git source package for maverick and I don't see it in the new queue either (or did I miss something) [22:40] Launchpad bug 586509 in git-core (Ubuntu) "Sync git 1:1.7.1-1 (main) from Debian unstable (main)" [Wishlist,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/586509 [22:41] cjwatson: ah, mk. [22:42] geser: hmm, the version number is too small [22:42] with an epoch? [22:43] geser: hardy had 4.3.20-12 so syncing version 1.7.1 won't work [22:43] Riddell: 1:1.7.1-1 is bigger than 4.3.20-12 [22:43] although.. it does have an epoch [22:43] there's also this error [22:43] E: git-core is in main but its source (git) is not. [22:44] there's a sync-source option for that [22:45] it requires a switch because that's a situation an AA should check manually (it'll probably involve making sure the new source is overridden to main) [22:46] git-core got renamed to git, so it has to be moved to main too (git-core was in main) [22:47] * Riddell tries the --force-more switch [22:47] there was a different git in the archive in the past, therefore git (the VCS) got named git-core but as appararently enough time has passed it got renamed to git [22:48] that did it [22:48] hey, i'd like to release this kobo ereader app thing to the multiverse repository, who should i talk to? [22:50] is it packaged? do you have upload rights? [22:51] it's packaged as a .deb, and the project lead at the company asked me to find out how to offer their app in the repository, so yesish to upload rights? [22:51] lamont: I think it might just be easier to do a longer timeout as I keep not finding time to change the packaging, then test to make sure it will build [22:51] aganice: upload rights is an ubuntu thing [22:52] Riddell: as the new "git" source package builds the same binary debs as the current "git-core" will it be automatically picked up (by some script) that "git-core" can be removed or is a bug needed? [22:52] lifeless, thanks. the answer is no, then, clearly :p [22:52] so, if you want it in multiverse, I'd start by putting it up on REVU and getting the packaging reviewed, then when its ready an Ubuntu developer can 'sponsor' it into the archive for you. [22:52] geser: git-core will appear in the NBS list soon and an archive admin will remove it one day [22:53] lifeless, thanks very much! [22:53] aganice: alternatively, you can become a canonical partner (details on the website, I can find a link for you if you like), and it can be uploaded to the Canonical partner archive. [22:53] it'll probably happen more or less as soon as it has no reverse-dependencies [22:54] Riddell: NBS lists also source packages without any binary debs left too? (all binary debs build from git-core (source) are now build by git (source)) [22:55] no, it doesn't [22:55] lifeless, thanks very much, i'll do that. [22:55] removal of obsoleted source packages does require a bug [22:55] Riddel: why do you sync package without information who has uploaded the package? [22:55] ok, will file one once git got build [22:56] aganice: http://www.canonical.com/about-canonical/partnerships - about partnerships [22:57] cjwatson: multi-catalog> oh; the usual problem is that PC BIOSes don't know to check the architecture field. Have you made sure the BIOS boot image is first? [22:57] * slangasek ran into this when trying to build multiarch i386+amd64+ia64 ISOs [22:58] pretty sure grub-mkrescue puts it first [22:58] NCommander: ok. give me a source-package name and a timeout :p I'll be rolling a new lp-buildd today or tomorrow and would love to put it in thene [22:58] then, even [22:59] cjwatson: ok - then that solves the only problem I knew of at the time, which was PCs trying to boot the first el torito image regardless of architecture :) [22:59] ari-tczew: such as which? [22:59] lamont: qt4-x11, 10 hour timeout? [22:59] ari-tczew: tab completion advised on irc else I won't see your message if you misspell my nick [22:59] slangasek: (I could be wrong, do you know an easy way to check?) [23:00] NCommander: is that a WAG, or expected max? [23:00] lamont: WAG [23:00] cjwatson: my memory is fuzzy on that part, sorry. I thought it was a matter of the ordering of the arguments to mkisofs [23:00] NCommander: ok [23:00] mm, well this is using xorriso at least in part because I think it permitted hybrid ISO/USB images [23:01] we definitely put the BIOS options first though [23:01] slangasek: I think the assertion in the Fedora wiki page was that some BIOSes just plain didn't like multi-catalog at all, but I couldn't find citations [23:02] Riddell: I forgot about tab, sorry. Today sync seems to be ok, but 18th May you did syncs without uploader information [23:02] lamont: disregard, qt4-x11 magically fixed itself it seems [23:02] bryceh: xf86-input-evtouch is blacklisted from sync, should I change that for bug 589535 ? [23:02] Launchpad bug 589535 in xf86-input-evtouch (Ubuntu) "Sync xf86-input-evtouch 0.8.8-4 (universe) from Debian unstable (main)" [Wishlist,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/589535 [23:02] Riddell, yeah it needs fakesync [23:02] (FWIW, the image I have boots in kvm both normally and with an EFI firmware image) [23:03] ari-tczew: exactly what uploader information do you mean? [23:03] bryceh: ok, will you do that? [23:03] NCommander: coolness [23:04] cjwatson: in launchpad "Uploaded by" and there person who has requested sync [23:04] ari-tczew: do you mean that the person who requested the sync is there and shouldn't be, or that it shouldn't be there but is? [23:05] cjwatson: well... could be, but that would imply malice on the part of the implementor instead of just stupidity :) [23:05] lamont: maybe disregard the disregard ... [23:06] Riddell, is there anyone else that can do it? it should be pretty trivial but I'm kinda tied up at the moment [23:06] cjwatson: lol, look, I requested sync in bug 579593 and I'm not as uploader of this. check then https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/connman/0.48+dfsg-2 [23:06] Launchpad bug 579593 in connman (Ubuntu) "Sync connman 0.48+dfsg-2 (universe) from Debian unstable (main)" [Undecided,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/579593 [23:07] bryceh: I'll subscribe ubuntu sponsors [23:07] thanks [23:07] NCommander: heh. I'll ping you before I do the upload. not sure when that'll be, but hopefully before the next time all the i386 virtual builders faceplant [23:07] since the upload is to specifically address that [23:07] in fact, there may be an open question if we should just drop -evtouch. I think rickspencer3 was suggesting that course of action for maverick [23:08] but I'll leave that to RAOF to consider [23:08] was I? [23:08] ari-tczew: assume accident rather than malice, then [23:09] I see language barrier [23:09] hmm? [23:10] slangasek: excessive assertions of what they mistakenly believed to be correct, perhaps - hard to tell with BIOSes [23:10] indeed :) [23:11] I have to say I'm not sure how to make Intel Macs continue to use the BIOS boot loader [23:11] presumably they'll notice that the EFI catalog entry is there and use it if they can [23:11] I would imagine so === IdleOne_ is now known as IdleOne [23:12] though given that most of the El Torito spec was written for Apple's benefit, perhaps their implementation is smart enough that you can point it at a better option [23:13] (well - not most of the El Torito spec perhaps, but most of the multi-catalog support) [23:19] cjwatson: hah - I have a cdrkit patch on my hard drive from 2007 to add a -eltorito-efi option to permit setting the correct platform ID [23:19] cjwatson: perhaps it would be useful to you? :) === dendrobates is now known as destro === destro is now known as dendrobates [23:22] slangasek: I'm not sure I want to rip out grub's use of xorriso at this point :) [23:22] though it might not hurt for reference [23:22] right :) [23:24] "Mark El Torito boot image for use with EFI (Itanium)" - [23:25] cjwatson: http://people.canonical.com/~vorlon/cdrkit-eltorito-efi.patch [23:25] the other key part, as I said, is the ordering of the options to genisoimage [23:26] (which I have recorded here as well if it's useful) [23:27] thanks, sure [23:27] FWIW, the image I posted was generated by an *almost* vanilla grub-mkrescue from grub trunk [23:28] the only thing I changed was a bit of brutalisation to get it to know where to find the BIOS and EFI modules at the same time, since those two grub packages aren't coinstallable yet [23:28] which essentially meant running it from the build tree with a hacked prefix and copying some files about [23:28] * slangasek nods [23:29] cjwatson: http://people.canonical.com/~vorlon/multiarch-cd.txt, then [23:30] right [23:31] FWIW I think the arguments here are coming out as -b boot/grub/i386-pc/eltorito.img -no-emul-boot -boot-info-table --embedded-boot embed.img --efi-boot efi.img [23:31] or words to that effect [23:31] where efi.img is a FAT filesystem image with /efi/boot/bootx64.efi and /efi/boot/bootia32.efi in it [23:31] some of these are probably xorriso-specific options === sconklin is now known as sconklin-gone [23:33] what does the --embedded-boot do? [23:37] I think it's an alias for -generic-boot [23:38] :q [23:38] dodh [23:38] you know it's late when you can't spell doh [23:38] and when you type :q in the wrong window, 5 seconds in-between [23:41] slangasek: source for this is http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/grub-devel/2010-04/msg00000.html and thread, you may do better than I at deciphering it [23:44] slangasek: oh, this is from the el torito spec I think [23:45] slangasek: if you have it in front of you, there's a figure on page 6 labelled "Three types of CD-ROM configuration", and the one labelled "Multiple Boot-Image Configuration" has a bootable disk image in the first 16 sectors, which is normally unused in single-catalog configurations [23:45] slangasek: that's what this is doing [23:45] ah, right [23:47] slangasek: the effect of this, I think, is to make it bootable as a USB stick as well [23:47] * slangasek nods [23:49] or possibly a floppy [23:49] I know that nowadays grub-mkrescue produces a single image that's all three at once [23:51] barry: ooh, your MBP says i386-pc, that's interesting [23:51] that implies that, given the choice between BIOS and EFI boot images, it picks BIOS [23:51] barry: do you have some kind of special arrangement with refit or whatever, or is that all bypassed here? [23:52] (BTW this is the desired situation! it's just slightly unexpected)
