| karyo | hello | 15:44 |
| karyo | can I get some advice? | 15:44 |
| funkyHat | !ask | probably applies here | 15:45 |
| ubottu | probably applies here: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) | 15:45 |
| karyo | thx. I'm new to all this IRC stuff :-> | 15:45 |
| karyo | I'd like to contribute to Ubuntu. I have some experience with ubuntu, have been reading a lot about gnu/linux/distros, have a lot of general knowledge on computers and programming but little skill | 15:46 |
| karyo | I want to join a team. I think triagers/motu would be nice to start. what do you think? | 15:47 |
| funkyHat | karyo: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/GettingStarted would be a good place to start reading if you're interested in packaging | 15:49 |
| karyo | should I be? I found that packaging had a bit steep learning curve especially for debian/dpkg. I was starting to think that maybe I might not be able to contribute anything meaningful. Is it really hard as I think it is? | 15:50 |
| porthose | karyo, if you want to triage bugs #ubuntu-bugs is the place to be https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BugSquad | 15:51 |
| funkyHat | ugh. bzr merge-package just completely failed at even attempting to merge mpd's init script. | 15:52 |
| karyo | thx porthose. what I really want to know is which is easier? I really think I should get more experience, but I'm not sure what should be my first step. | 15:52 |
| porthose | karyo, bugs would be a good place to start, it really depends on what interests you :) | 15:54 |
| karyo | well, I'm mainly interested in localization. I'm already involved in translating ubuntu/related projects to my native language, and found that there are a lot of issues non-english ubuntu versions face. I'm not sure how or if i can effectively handle such issues. | 15:56 |
| funkyHat | I filed a bug about mpd crashing, and a debdiff to fix it, but I've noticed there's a newer version in squeeze so I'm merging that | 16:06 |
| funkyHat | I guess I should mark my initial bug as invalid? | 16:06 |
| lfaraone_ | There is a problem ("GDM crashes after selecting the "Sugar" desktop")for which there is a well-known fix that I have tested myself, and have committed to the upstream Debian packaging repository. I'm waiting for an upload of the fix to unstable. Can I SRU the fix to Lucid before it's uploaded to Unstable without creating an Ubuntu delta in Maverick? | 16:15 |
| lfaraone_ | (I have the upload privlages) | 16:15 |
| lfaraone_ | jdong, slangasek, ^^ | 16:17 |
| funkyHat | I've just done my first merge using bzr. woop. https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mpd/+bug/591307 | 16:33 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu bug 591307 in mpd (Ubuntu) "request to merge mpd 0.15.9-2 from debian testing" [Undecided,New] | 16:33 |
| slangasek | lfaraone_: SRUing to lucid doesn't automatically affect whether there's a delta in maverick. We *can* copy SRUs from lucid to maverick after they've built, but can be asked not to. What's the package? | 16:34 |
| funkyHat | oops... forgot to assign to myself before subscribing universe sponsors... I hope that doesn't create unnecessary noise | 16:37 |

| === nobawk is now known as nobawk|away | ||
| ari-tczew | geser: it's only warning. I've completed the bug description, but requestsync fails at the end, during send packets to launchpad | 17:55 |
| geser | ari-tczew: did you get any error? it might be an LP API issue, as I've seen many timeouts (503 service unavailable) recently | 17:57 |
| ari-tczew | heh I didn't save | 17:57 |
| ari-tczew | now I requested sync manually, so requestsync should tell me about duplicate | 17:58 |
| ari-tczew | and I can't reproduce bug message | 17:58 |
| geser | I'm currently fixing the warning for trunk (thanks for the notice) | 17:58 |
| ari-tczew | geser: I'll look for any sync and try again to reproduce bug | 17:58 |
| geser | you might be lucky to get it through or trigger an timeout, it's not really predictable or repeatable | 17:58 |
| ari-tczew | geser: I think that it's could be a timeout | 17:59 |
| carstenh | dutchie: different patch systems in debian and ubuntu for the same package make syncing between these distributions harder | 17:59 |
| ari-tczew | geser: is it possible due to long description of bug? | 18:00 |
| dutchie | carstenh: there's no patch system at the moment | 18:00 |
| dutchie | carstenh: presumably, if I did, it would make more sense to submit it to debian and sync it? | 18:00 |
| geser | ari-tczew: I don't know the reasons for the many timeouts recently. I assume they are also the reason for the FTBFS page being out-of-date. | 18:01 |
| ari-tczew | geser: is it possible due to DDoS on launchpad? | 18:02 |
| carstenh | dutchie: I would just wait until debian switches. people don't like non-functional changes in "their" packages made by other people | 18:03 |
| dutchie | carstenh: fair enough | 18:03 |
| ari-tczew | geser: that looks bug requested manually, because requestsync has been crashed: bug 591349 | 18:10 |

| shadeslayer | ari-tczew: not a sponsor,but if version is same in ubuntu and debian,why sync it? | 18:44 |

| shadeslayer | btw anyone know how to package java stuff? please join #ubuntu-packaging :) | 18:45 |
| ari-tczew | shadeslayer: because if we'll sync package and Debian will release a new package revision (version), then package will get in Ubuntu automatically | 18:45 |
| shadeslayer | ari-tczew: uh.. not true | 18:46 |
| geser | dutchie: you could at least try if you are out of ideas what is broken | 18:46 |
| ari-tczew | shadeslayer: ? | 18:46 |
| shadeslayer | ari-tczew: the package might need a merge or sync depending on the condition whether or not i works as in ubuntu as well | 18:47 |
| dutchie | geser: ok, thanks for the pointer | 18:47 |
| ari-tczew | shadeslayer: first heard. us job is remove diff between Ubuntu and Debian. are you a sponsor? | 18:48 |
| geser | ari-tczew: fakesync because of different md5sum of the .orig.tar.gz? | 18:48 |
| ari-tczew | geser: yes | 18:48 |
| shadeslayer | ari-tczew: no im not a sponsor :) | 18:48 |
| ari-tczew | shadeslayer: I thought | 18:48 |

| shadeslayer | ari-tczew: i mentioned it in my first chat ;) | 18:49 |
| ari-tczew | shadeslayer: "not a sponsor" heh, not precisely, who "not sponsor" | 18:50 |
| shadeslayer | ari-tczew: hehe :P | 18:50 |
| ari-tczew | you should write "I'm not a sponsor, but I think that..." | 18:50 |
| ari-tczew | geser: have you objections about sync package if packages seems to be almost the same or the same? | 18:51 |
| geser | no objections in general | 18:51 |
| ari-tczew | fine | 18:51 |
| geser | but because this is a fakesync, I'm not sure if it's really worth it | 18:51 |
| ari-tczew | geser: really | 18:52 |
| geser | I see the benefit of being able to auto-sync in future (when a new upstream version is uploaded). but till then fakesyncs are needed. | 18:52 |

| jono | DeeJay1, email dholbach - he can give you all the details | 20:29 |

| jono | DeeJay1, it is really awesome - he can give you the details :-) | 20:32 |
| DeeJay1 | jono: I've noticed that a few cool things are coming in Launchpad and some nice improvements for Rosetta also (the one thing I still miss in Rosetta is "add comment" function for reviewers) | 20:36 |

| RainCT | samliu: In your case it'll be different, depending on what build system your application uses. | 20:56 |
