jonoarand, it happens when I click a toolbox item00:09
jonoit starts fine00:09
jonoin maverick00:10
arandjono: I was clicking about, painting, selecting, etc. With no problem. I may not be on the latest version if there was updates in the last day though..00:11
jonoarand, odd00:16
arandjono: Thos was a i386 kvm machine.. Which seems to have bigger problems that that all of a sudden (kernel panics), so an updated test might take a while from my side.. :/00:18
jonoarand, sorry to hear that00:20
arandWell, just have to step back a while in snapshots.. got some update-downloading to do now..00:22
arandjono: Seems to be no gimp updates at that though, so if anything did break it recently it wasn't a gimp-package fault, not directly at least I guess..00:24
jonohmmm00:24
arandjono: amd64 on your side? Apport manages to catch it?00:28
jonoarand, apport doesnt catch it00:29
jonoI am going to do some more testing in a bit00:29

pranay_09hi, while downloading any package via synaptic manager in ubuntu if i go for system shutdown, then the system does not inform me that some downloading is going on . so how can i incorporate this feature ?03:51
micahgpranay_09: file a bug?03:52
pranay_09micahg: where?03:52
micahggood question :)03:52
micahgpranay_09: you can always file just against ubuntu and add the needs-reassignment tag if you'03:54
micahgre not sure03:54
pranay_09micahg: ok03:55
pranay_09micahg: acutally i wanted to know that how can i work upon it?03:55
micahgpranay_09: ah, ok03:55
micahgpranay_09: well, all the sources are available either as source packages or in bzr, I just don't know which package this would be03:56
micahgpranay_09: maybe someone else will know03:57
pranay_09micahg: ok, so where should i search for such package , any idea?03:59
micahgpranay_09: looks like gnome-session might be it03:59
micahgpranay_09: also, you might want to check bugzilla.gnome.org to see if anyone's filed such a request or if there's a partial patch03:59
pranay_09micahg: k, thanks :)04:00
micahgpranay_09: np04:00
Chipzzmicahg: are you seriously proposing patching gnome-session for that?05:09
Chipzz^^05:09
micahgChipzz: nope05:10
micahgChipzz: but if someone wants to make a patch, should I stand in their way?05:10
Chipzzthen why is it a bug against gnome-session?05:11
micahgChipzz: I don't think he's going to file a bug, I misunderstood, he wanted to work on it05:11
Chipzzif you're wasting their time because that patch has 0 chance of being accepted, yes05:11
RAOFThere's an existing mechanism for making this work, by the way.05:11
micahgwhere was everyone an hour ago?  I was just trying to help :-/05:12
Chipzzplaying WoW :P05:12
micahguser's still here, anyone want to talk to pranay_09 about it?05:12
RAOFpranay_09: You could make that work with an app that registers with the session-management protocol - one of the things that protocol does is send a “I'd like to shutdown now” message to all clients, which can block the shutdown.05:13
micahgRAOF: thank you :)05:14

ubottuLaunchpad bug 596475 in pybootchartgui (Ubuntu) "Upgrade to upstream version r141" [Wishlist,New]14:18
seb128dupondje, the debdiff is weird, the changelog mentions new options but there is no code for those?14:20
pittidupondje: right, what seb128 just said, was going to ask the same14:21
pittidupondje: and we already fixed the find bug yestrday14:21
pittimousewheel?14:22
pittioh, pybootchartgui has an interactive mode as well?14:22
* pitti was only ever looking at the produced .pngs14:22
dupondjepitti: yes :) if you scroll now, it zooms directly14:22
dupondjepatch fixes that it zooms only when CTRL is entered :)14:22
pittiah, that directly reads the .tgz14:22
dupondjeseb128: those 'new options' are also in the current versions ... Didn't know if I needed to add the info in latest changelog14:23
dupondjeas its a new upstream version, with the ubuntu changes included ...14:23
seb128dupondje, well changelog describes what changed14:23
seb128dupondje, it's weird to describe things which didn't change in the new entry ;-)14:24
pittidupondje: ah, then you should perhaps indent it properly14:24
pittidupondje: so the --crop-after bits were previously cherrypicked as patches?14:24
pittibut right, if we already got them, no need to repeat, it's only confusing14:24
dupondjeIt was just to make clear we kept the upstream delta in the new version :)14:25
LucidFoxarand> So basically, I'd need my own build server... okay14:26
arandLucidFox: TO be honest I have no idea, I just found the wiki page and it looked relevant ;)14:27
pittidupondje: oh, that is a delta of our's? then it shouldn't be in the changelog at all IMHO14:29
dupondjethose are changes that are made in the ubuntu package only indeed, not in upstream14:30
seb128dupondje, changelog is to indicate changes, if those are in the previous version we will indicate if we drop them, otherwise we assume that we keep what was done before14:31
seb128dupondje, you would have to do a summary of all the changes at every upload otherwise ;-)14:31
pittiah, so it's not really that magic; just seems to be a terribly slow eog :)14:33

=== bjf[afk] is now known as bjf
ScottKdoko: OK.  Will do.15:46
barrydoko: thanks15:46
apacheloggerdoko: do you happen to know why binutils(-gold) does not use update-alternatives for ld diversion?15:46
dokoapachelogger: because alternatives are evil for anything other than editor or www-browser15:47
apacheloggerhm, ok :)15:48
dokoyou can't see from logs what was really used, makes understanding bug reports harder, etc15:48
superm1slangasek, so today's 06-24 build is doing that same thing with the hash sum mismatch again.  could you perhaps temporarily reschedule it at a different time so as to avoid this conflict until that proper locking can be put in place?15:50
ScottKpitti: Would you please rescore python2.6.  I need to find at all the archs it's going to fail on before I upload it again.15:52
apacheloggerdoko: well, you do not see this with the current approach either, do you?15:53
dokoapachelogger: why not?15:53
apacheloggerI mean, binutils-gold will dpkg-divert ld and then the builder will just use ld as usual15:53
dokoapachelogger: no, you know it's gold, if binutils-gold is installed15:55
=== dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk
apacheloggerdoko: not if the user manually messed with the link that is, which is likely considering dpkg-divert is from a user perspective not exactly usable15:58
apacheloggerespecially considering that one might not want to use gold for everything15:58
dokoapachelogger: a user always looses when manipulating things directly15:58
* sebner waves at pinky apachelogger 15:58
apacheloggerJust to give this context. The kdepim team is thinking about using gold for in-development builds for various reasons and the concern was raised that one should probably be able to switch easily.15:58
apacheloggersebner: o/ lo15:59

cjwatsondevelopers upload source packages; they're compiled by automatic build servers23:25
encodechow?23:25
cjwatsonplease expand on your question23:25
encodecwell i guess in linux its just a ./configure make script..23:26
cjwatsondpkg-buildpackage  is the official entry point23:26
cjwatsonunpack source package, cd into unpacked tree, run dpkg-buildpackage -b23:26
cjwatsonthat calls debian/rules with various arguments, behind the scenes23:26
cjwatsonand debian/rules takes care of whatever the specifics of the package are.  not everything is ./configure && make23:27
encodecok ok23:27
seb128cjwatson, hey23:28
encodecwhat describes the dependencies, destination paths and such things?23:28
seb128cjwatson, I know you are busy atm but did you get kenvandine's email about his upload rights for desktop set?23:29
cjwatsonencodec: debian/control describes dependencies, although many of them are worked out dynamically by dpkg-shlibdeps23:29
cjwatsonencodec: destination paths are done by a mix of things; it's easiest to run dpkg-buildpackage on a package and watch its output23:29
verb3kis it possible to build gst-ffmpeg with an already installed version of ffmpeg (instead of the one in the source tree)?23:29
cjwatsonsometimes it's the upstream build scripts (Makefile or whatever), sometimes debian/*.install, sometimes manual commands written directly into debian/rules, it varies23:30
seb128cjwatson, seems he's having limited access to upload dx components atm, we can deal with sponsoring but still it would be nice to get that sorted23:30

seb128cjwatson, I know you are busy, we are done for this week updates so really no hurry ;-)23:31
seb128cjwatson, thanks23:32
cjwatsonmm, I tend to reply only when I'm done23:32
cjwatsonmaybe I should adjust that habit23:32
seb128cjwatson, I was not sure if that was a one command to run from you side but you missed the email or if you queued it for after busy time23:32
cjwatsonit's a few commands plus some thought23:33
cjwatsonI'll need to go through adjusting exception lists23:33
seb128ok, thanks for the update, as said that was rather a status checking than a need to get this done now23:33
Sarvattsiretart: are you around by any chance? gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg (and vlc) are built against libavutil49, and the libavutil-extra-49 package in the maverick archive is an empty package outside of docs23:41
encodeccjwatson, thx for all the fish23:41
=== oubiann is now known as oubiwann
Sarvattnot sure what to do since libavutil49 isn't built in ffmpeg-extra anymore, should all this stuff just be rebuilt against libavutil50? totem is pretty unusable because of it since it can't find codecs23:43
=== sconklin is now known as sconklin-gone
