| slangasek | ScottK: boost MPI> well, it's a long MIR chain if we pull that all in; I'm not convinced that's what we want to do | 01:20 |
|---|---|---|
| ScottK | slangasek: The package in question is in Universe. I was thinking maybe finish the 1.40 -> 1.42 transition in Main and then add the MPI stuff back to 1.40 in Universe. | 01:31 |
| ajmitch | ScottK: you want to keep 1.40 around? | 01:55 |
| ScottK | ajmitch: Not particularly, but there's at least one package using MPI now and so it'd be an alternative to MIR for the entire MPI stack. | 01:55 |
| ajmitch | then I'd better merge it at some point | 01:56 |
| ajmitch | unless you prefer to do it | 01:56 |
| ScottK | No. I never "prefer" to touch Boost stuff. | 01:56 |
| ajmitch | I was afraid of that | 01:56 |
| ScottK | We need to drop it to Universe first if it hasn't already. | 01:56 |
| Cuervo | foes the c library offer any interfaces to kvm? | 01:57 |
| Cuervo | *does | 01:57 |
| ajmitch | it's still in main at the moment | 01:57 |
| Cuervo | and if so, how do I access them? | 01:57 |
| ScottK | It may not need to be/ | 01:57 |
| * ScottK investigates | 01:57 | |
| ajmitch | it still had a few rdepends when I looked last week, but I didn't check if any were in main | 01:58 |
| ScottK | None are in Main. | 01:58 |
| ScottK | slangasek: Unless you have a better idea for dealing with MPI, would you please demote all the boost1.40 stuff to Universe and we'll get it restored that way (it's in compononet mismatches) | 01:59 |
| ajmitch | if I'm to do the merge, want me to add in the MPI stuff at the same time? | 02:00 |
| ScottK | ajmitch: Yes. Please. | 02:00 |
| ScottK | No particular reason to wait either. It should just dep wait until it's demoted. | 02:01 |
| ajmitch | it's the majority of the changes carried from debian at the moment | 02:01 |

| ajmitch | andreserl: posted to planet ubuntu yet? | 02:06 |
| andreserl | ajmitch, I'm about to :) | 02:06 |
| ajmitch | since you provided no url or screenshots for me to look at | 02:07 |
| andreserl | ajmitch, yeah I'm finish writing the blogpost, though there are screenshots: http://www.roaksoax.com/2010/06/gsoc-update-of-the-week-testdrive-pygtk-front-end-3 http://www.roaksoax.com/2010/05/gsoc-update-of-the-week-testdrive-pygtk-front-end-2 | 02:19 |
| ajmitch | looks good, I might need to try it out :) | 02:21 |
| superm1 | slangasek, hm, that (otherwise) successful build appears to have a livefs that's about 10 days old | 02:29 |
| superm1 | even though the livefs from today was success filled | 02:30 |

| === almaisan-away is now known as al-maisan | ||
| TheMuso | orangey: When you say testint out, what do you mean exactly? | 05:52 |
| orangey | TheMuso: well, I'm using lucid and am having difficulties with my sound card, so wanted to put the new driver set in place. | 06:05 |
| orangey | for which, yes, there are PPAs | 06:05 |
| orangey | but on the face of it, doesn't seem like it's working | 06:06 |
| TheMuso | orangey: Right, there are some unusual build failures that haven't yet been solved, and are unfortunately something that upstream will have to resolve, at least unless another member of the audio team manages to do so. | 06:06 |
| TheMuso | orangey: The only way to test newer also code atm is to build your own kernel, or use one of the kernel team's mainline builds. | 06:07 |
| orangey | TheMuso: gotcha | 06:09 |
| orangey | I'm trying this now, but it's out of the #devel territory by now: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6589810 | 06:09 |

| === ricotz_ is now known as ricotz | ||
| TheMuso | orangey: What do you mean by id? | 07:56 |
| orangey | the identifier like "hw0,0" | 08:00 |

| TheMuso | manjo: sorry not meant to go to you. | 08:01 |
| TheMuso | orangey: ^^ | 08:01 |
| orangey | : ) | 08:01 |
| orangey | TheMuso: not true. you CAN | 08:01 |
| orangey | e.g., in pulse configs | 08:01 |
| hyperair | hmm what's the difference between gstreamer0.10-fluendo-mp3 and gstreamer0.10-fluendo-plugins-mp3-partner? | 08:03 |
| TheMuso | orangey: Please explain then. | 08:07 |
| orangey | TheMuso: well, the card is 0 | 08:10 |
| orangey | i.e., hw:0 | 08:10 |
| orangey | then the particular subdevice or whatever is ,whatever | 08:10 |
| orangey | so that the default device is usually hw:0,0 | 08:10 |
| orangey | is that what you're asking? | 08:11 |
| TheMuso | orangey: No, you asked about how one could use the mic etc via hw:0, and I said it was not possible. | 08:17 |
| TheMuso | orangey: It is possible by setting the capture device through the mixer, and recording from hw:0 etc. | 08:17 |
| orangey | TheMuso: pulseaudio is incorrectly detecting my internal mic | 08:17 |
| orangey | I want to help it by pointing it to the correct one | 08:17 |
| orangey | if I knew its internal alsa ID, I could | 08:18 |
| pitti | Good morning | 08:20 |
| TheMuso | orangey: run alsamixer and look for the string that identifies your mic. | 08:21 |
| TheMuso | orangey: Then you need to look at the files in /usr/share/pulseaudio/alsa-mixer/ to adjust things appropriately. | 08:21 |

| jpds | 3 | 11:02 |
| hrw | dholbach: and I still think that they are made wrong way | 11:03 |
| dholbach | hrw: what exactly do you think is wrong? the format of specifications? the way we track work items? | 11:03 |
| geser | cjwatson: I just checked and the version in lucid has the same problem (filing a bug anyways) | 11:04 |
| hrw | dholbach: using whiteboard for work items + status + notes. it should be split into work items (handled like bugs but not being bugs), status/notes should be wiki (so history is present) | 11:05 |
| cjwatson | everyone involved acknowledges that work items are a hack | 11:05 |
| hrw | dholbach: and status of how many workitems exists and how many are completed should be part of LP not external service | 11:05 |
| dholbach | hrw: I filed a bug about it part 1 of your complaint | 11:06 |
| dholbach | I can try to find it | 11:06 |
| dholbach | but I'm sure the LP folks would love help with that | 11:06 |
| hrw | from my perspective as new developer in ubuntuland it looks like hack on hack which everyone is fine with | 11:06 |
| dholbach | and I'm sure they'd agree | 11:06 |
| hrw | dholbach: I can share ideas not code | 11:07 |
| dholbach | hrw: it's quite easy to criticise the LP team | 11:07 |
| hrw | dholbach: I know, they do lot of great work | 11:07 |
| dholbach | (and give them yet another idea :)) | 11:07 |
| cjwatson | hrw: the perfect is sometimes the enemy of the good | 11:08 |
| hrw | and I know that I can create a bug for each work item to have a way to track each of them | 11:08 |
| cjwatson | having something available now which is distinctly suboptimal but works is better than having a perfect design which nobody has time to implement | 11:08 |
| hrw | cjwatson: thats also true | 11:08 |
| cjwatson | and we've been consistently told that blueprints is unmaintained | 11:08 |
| DktrKranz | mvo: hi! what do you think about uploading gdebi to unstable and sync it to maverick shortafter? There are some good fixes already. Or do you prefer waiting to merge python-apt branch? | 11:08 |
| cjwatson | and yet we're fairly committed to using it, so it makes sense to make do | 11:08 |
| mvo | DktrKranz: sync sounds good, I can do the python-apt merge today I think | 11:09 |
| mvo | DktrKranz: will you be able to do the debian upload? | 11:09 |
| dholbach | hrw: bug 578263 was what I was talking about | 11:09 |
| cjwatson | it was all done outside of the LP team, so there's nothing stopping somebody else implementing something better | 11:09 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 578263 in Launchpad Blueprints "Add "work items" to blueprint" [Low,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/578263 | 11:09 |

| DktrKranz | not before this evening, though :) | 11:09 |

| ajmitch | there has been a little bit of work done on blueprints, hopefully it'll get in | 11:20 |
| nigelb | cjwatson: its the gmail thingie. Im away from my evolution. It formats it correctly | 11:20 |
| ajmitch | and yeah, using the whiteboard for tracking work items is a bit of a nasty hack :) | 11:20 |
| nigelb | ajmitch: I'd love to see all blueprints where I have been assigned a task. NOw I have to keep a seprate list | 11:21 |
| ajmitch | nigelb: yes, that'd make sense - I think the original intent was to have lots of blueprints linked through their dependencies | 11:21 |
| nigelb | ajmitch: what happens now is if the blueprint is not part of series, it doesn't get shown anywhere. I wish we had a "collect all" page where all blueprints discussed at uds would turn up | 11:22 |
| ajmitch | an interim step to get rid of the screen scraping in the work items tracker is to expose those properties on blueprints via the API | 11:23 |
| nigelb | +1 to that | 11:23 |
| nigelb | like having a feature of assigning people to each task in the blueprint | 11:24 |
| * ajmitch hopes that exposing some of the API can land in the next month or so | 11:24 | |
| mvo | DktrKranz: i just checked and the maverick python-apt version should be very up-to-date, no code changes in the merge | 11:24 |
| nigelb | ajmitch: we should pester jorge or someone from LP team | 11:27 |
| ajmitch | nigelb: for which part? | 11:28 |
| nigelb | ajmitch: for the LP-related part | 11:28 |
| ajmitch | I mean for which part of blueprints? the basic API stuff is almost there | 11:28 |

| apachelogger | usb-creator has the same problem supposedly | 11:37 |
| apachelogger | or really anything created by intltool I would argue | 11:37 |
| pitti | apachelogger: I know that a thing like "context" exists in translations, but why does it need to be mandatory? | 11:39 |
| pitti | I'm afraid I don't quite understand the problem | 11:39 |
| apachelogger | pitti: It is not mandatory it just happens to be used in the KDE templates, hence our desktop-file-translation-from-mo patches do a context+value lookup instead of just value | 11:42 |
| apachelogger | Suffice to say that a context would probably also help translators in this particular case, since one might not know that a comment is really a comment unless launchpad tells one that this is a comment ;) | 11:43 |
| pitti | apachelogger: i. e. we need to fix the build system to add a context to the strings extracted from the .desktop.in? | 11:43 |
| apachelogger | pitti: I do think so. | 11:44 |
| pitti | (that would need a new option in python-distutils-extra, I figure) | 11:44 |
| apachelogger | pitti: Do you want a bug report about it? | 11:46 |
| pitti | please, with the details | 11:47 |
| apachelogger | pitti: against python-distutils-extra? | 11:48 |
| pitti | right | 11:48 |
| pitti | that should provide the functinoality | 11:48 |
| pitti | and then we just need to set the context name or enable the option in jockey | 11:49 |

| ccheney | doko_, i was wondering if you were going to be able to process the OOo related MIRs I filed about 2 weeks ago? | 19:59 |
| ccheney | asac, perhaps reassigning them to someone else if doko is overloaded would be helpful? :) | 20:00 |
| apw | slangasek, the only bit of our installer which seems to touch debconf is the fragment below, and i am not convinced that we are therefore using it at all really | 20:11 |
| apw | use Debconf::Client::ConfModule qw(:all); | 20:11 |
| apw | version('2.0'); | 20:11 |
| apw | my $capb=capb("backup"); | 20:11 |
| ajmitch | ScottK: I can see why you didn't want to touch boost | 20:15 |
| slangasek | apw: you're loading the module; this is only guaranteed to succeed if the debconf package is in installed state; either the pre-dep should be added so the package manager knows what order to configure things in, or the references should be dropped from the preinst | 20:23 |
| apw | slangasek, yeah i am trying to ask if you concur that actually we arn't using it, and therefore ripping it out is the right thing to do to solve the error | 20:28 |

| cjwatson | apw: a dusty memory somewhere indicates that, although debconf isn't used directly by the kernel preinst, it was needed in order to make things work when /etc/kernel/preinst.d scripts used debconf | 20:40 |
| cjwatson | this may be nonsense | 20:40 |
| cjwatson | but you might want to look through the history for that | 20:40 |
| cjwatson | and perhaps grep the archive for /etc/kernel/preinst.d scripts and see what they do | 20:41 |
| === jtechidna is now known as JontheEchidna | ||
| slangasek | cjwatson, apw: there was some issue surrounding dkms, yeah, but I honestly don't remember if this preinst usage was related to that | 21:04 |
| lex79 | someone can look at this: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libvdpau/0.4-5/+build/1790677 | 21:36 |
| lex79 | libvdpau needs ia32-libs to build which is in universe | 21:36 |
| lex79 | and ffmpeg needs libvdpau to build...so it ftbs only on amd64 | 21:39 |
| lex79 | https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ffmpeg/4:0.6-1ubuntu1/+build/1796084 | 21:39 |
| lamont | Building database of manual pages ... <-- I want that to go faster, dangit | 22:37 |
| geser | I disabled that for my pbuilder :) | 22:47 |
| geser | lex79: I've strong doubts that ia32-libs comes even near main | 22:49 |
| soren | geser: It used to be in main. Back in the old days. :) | 22:55 |
| * micahg though ia32-libs would be going away with multiarch | 22:57 | |
| micahg | *thoguht | 22:57 |
| micahg | ugh :-/ | 22:57 |
| cjwatson | lamont: feel free to suggest ways it could be further optimised ... | 23:10 |
| arand | cjwatson: For btrfs in installer, which is the relevant package to track, d-i? Some of the partman-* packages? Or a bzr branch somewhereabouts? | 23:14 |
| arand | (If you're just wanting to keep up with any news) | 23:15 |
| cjwatson | partman-btrfs | 23:17 |
| cjwatson | not that I can guarantee any given change will affect that. the installer's modular, there isn't necessarily a single package to track | 23:18 |
| arand | Right, I was just wondering because of the announcement, and then not finding any mention in the installer-related changelogs I could find. Thanks! | 23:20 |
| cjwatson | arand: also, http://lists.debian.org/debian-boot/2010/06/msg00088.html and thread | 23:23 |
