directhexasac, i'm tracking down ARM problems with mono. it looks like our current 2.6.3-2 package in experimental, which includes the previous ubuntu ARM changes, doesn't build on the debian arm porterbox ("illegal instruction")09:17
lifelessRAOF: the adjective I had in mind was a tad different.09:17
lifelessI like this bit ;)09:18
directhexasac, getting ARM working well is a blocker on pulling it into maverick09:18
asacdirecthex: hmm09:20
asacdirecthex: i can see what happenes on our porter box09:21
asacgive me the .dsc ;)09:21
directhexhttp://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/m/mono/mono_2.6.3-2.dsc09:21
directhexon agricola, it fails about a third of the way through the build, i.e. when bootstrapping the class library, after building the C-based runtime09:22
pittiasac: I prepared the dpkg filtering patch for maverick, FYI; but didn't you say that there was a WI for that?09:27
asacpitti: one second. let me give you an item ;)09:29
pittioh, I was just wondernig whether I should close something09:29
asacpitti: you said you also needed to upload apt?09:30
pittido I?09:30
pittiasac: depends on what you want to do; these are quite independent09:30
pittibut I'd like mvo to have a look at my MP first before I put it into the official distro09:30

Chipzzsabgenton: and FWIW, "bumping" a bug is hardly ever an appropriate thing to do in my personal opinion09:37
Chipzzpersonally I find "bumping" a bug obnoxious behaviour09:38

Chipzzyes09:43
sabgentonor do some get disgarded09:43
asacRiddell: please fix 51214609:44
Chipzzlike cjwatson pointed out above, the person responsable will get an email about it09:44
asacthat clearly had open MIR points when you promoted ;)09:44
sabgentonif It say there for like 9 months or something should I take action09:44
sabgenton / raise awarness09:45
jibelmvo, chrisccoulson, hey, latest flashplugin-nonfree in lucid-proposed introduces a regression. Could you please have a look at 429841 again.09:45
sabgentonor does that not happen09:45
asacRiddell: same for 51214809:45
sabgenton(it was barrly yesterday :)  )09:46

siretartasac: what's the problem with libva? it does provide a shlibs file: "libva 1 libva1"12:30
asacsiretart: hmm. did i miss that?12:32
asacsiretart: you do that manually?12:33
siretartasac: I've just downloaded the .deb from launchpad and checked with 'dpkg-deb -I libva1_1.0.1-3_i386.deb shlibs'12:33
asacsiretart: thats the auto generated file, yes. having that maintained explicitly in rules gives more confidence12:33
asacthat someone is actually caring about that ;)12:33
siretartasac: which is perfectly fine until upstream actually does a change that is not.12:34
siretartasac: so you require some special action from the maintainer to indicate "I promise that I will check on the next upload?"12:34
siretartsorry?12:34
asacsiretart: actually i want .symbols files12:34
asacso i dont need to hope that debian maintainer knows how to do that and does it right12:35
siretartasac: uff? is that a new ubuntu policy? since when do all libraries in main need to have .symbols files?12:35
asacsiretart: as i said. i want .symbols files12:35
asacbut its not required. i just want confidence that abi is properly tracked12:35
seb128siretart, hey12:36
asachaving no explicit makeshlibs doesnt give that to me12:36
siretarthi seb12812:36
seb128siretart, did you talk with sirestart about ffmpeg 49 and 50 binaries overwritting files issues?12:36
seb128ups12:36
siretartasac: in the pkg-multimedia team, we do maintain quite some libraries and we do care about ABI/API issues12:36
asacsiretart has two owners now?12:36
asacsiretart: how do you track them?12:36
seb128siretart, with Sarvatt I meant12:37
siretartwith objdump?12:37
siretartseb128: no, he didn't contact me. what's the lp bug number you're talking about?12:37
asacsiretart: so you double check for every upstream pick that nothing changed and do the right thing?12:37
siretartI do, yes.12:37
seb128siretart,12:37
seb128juin 25 00:36:58 <Sarvatt>gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg should just be built against libavutil50 anyway though shouldn't it?12:37
seb128juin 25 00:38:17 <Sarvatt>other junk is still using libavutil49 though like vlc and thats screwed up also if you have extra installed :(12:37
seb128juin 25 00:40:02 <Sarvatt>yeah libavutil49 isn't even built in ffmpeg-extra anymore so the screwed up empty package is just hanging around in the archive12:37
=== MacSlow is now known as MacSlow|lunch
asacsiretart: you do ... but how about the others ;) ... what i think is that its hard to see that a team i dont know cares about this in a way that we can rely on it here12:38
siretartasac: if there is a rule that all libs in main are required to have .symbols file, please show it to me12:38
asacbut i can approve it if you say its not going to be a problem ;)12:38
asacsiretart: as i said. there is no rule. and i didnt ask for that12:38
siretartyou said something else at 13:3512:39
asac13:35 < asac> siretart: as i said. i want .symbols files12:39
asac13:36 < asac> but its not required. i just want confidence that abi is properly tracked12:39
asacno ... thats what i said ;)12:39
siretartI see12:39
siretartseb128: he seems pretty confused12:39
asacthe easiest way to convince is .symbols ... not sure why thats a problem for anyone doing lib maintenance though12:40
siretartseb128: libavutil49 is NBS, packages will drop that dependency as they are rebuilt12:40
seb128siretart, dunno, but we got quite some bugs about avi playing not working in maverick, not sure if that's because we still use the wrong one12:40
seb128siretart, well, then we need to rebuild things to pick the new soname?12:40
siretartseb128: having libavutil49 and libavutil50 loaded at the same time shouldn't be a problem anymore, as I've introduced symbol versioning upstream12:41
siretartseb128: if there is an undeclared file conflict, please file a bug and tell me the bug number. I'll take care of that12:41
siretartif there is a crash, I'd need a backtrace12:41
seb128juin 25 00:33:24 <Sarvatt>libavutil49 is correct, its libavutil-extra-49 that is screwed up and that replaces libavutil4912:41
seb128siretart, I will check what's going on12:41
seb128siretart, I think he said he managed to get files overwritten and then not there after an upgrade12:41
siretartof course libavutil-extra-49 is supposed to replace libavutil49. same for the 50 variant12:41
siretartwe are doing that game for a couple of releases12:42
siretartis he on amd64?12:42
siretartthe amd64 build arrived only this weekend, because of the vdpau trouble12:42
seb128could be12:42
siretartthat I fixed this weekend by disabling the 32bit libs12:42
seb128siretart, I was just checking if you knew anything before spending time on that12:42
seb128siretart, I will try to figure what the issues are now and ping you back later if needed, thanks12:43
siretartseb128: as said, I'm not aware of a problem related to that12:43
siretartok12:43
siretartasac: .symbol files are still a huge pain for c++ libraries. We've tried for libjack, but it's pretty pointless there12:44
asacsiretart: we have a lot of crack libs in main even. some have loads of symbols exported that should never have been exported (e.g. _xxx symbols that were not properly hidden upstream). i just want to ensure that folks get reminded about this topic whenever upstream changes their abi/api and .symbols is the easiest way i can currently see that will ensure that such a reminder will take place12:44
siretartIIRC libva is plain c, so adding .symbol files should be rather easy12:44
asacsiretart: yeah i see your point12:44
asacbut libva is C ;)12:44
siretartas said12:44
asacyep12:44
siretartbtw, for ffmpeg, these libs also don't provide .symbols files, and won't in the forseable future12:45
asacin the end i trust you to do the right thing. but in general i am looking at a package without knowing its origin etc.12:45
siretartI play rather dirty tricks with the shlibs file so that the ffmpeg-extra trick works12:45
asacsad enough ;)12:45
siretartor other way round, I cannot implement that trick with symbol files12:45
siretartoh, I'd also love to get rid of that trick12:45
siretartbut that would require to promote liblame, x264 and xvidcore to main12:46
siretartwould you be more comfortable with that? ;-)12:46
asacbut does that mean that all other libs shouldnt use symbols ;)?12:46
asacsiretart: i didnt talk about ffmpeg here12:46
asacanyway. you can choosed: a) add .symbols \o/ ... b) add explicit makeshlibs o/ c) keep it as is and state the process you have in place in the multimedia team that will ensure that abi/api will be properly tracked12:47
asacall three are good enough to get approval12:47
siretartno, I just wanted to point out that I do care about ABI/API issues, and that I feel your decision to make a .symbol file a requirement for libva's promotion to main overexaggerated12:47
siretartI choose c) for now, but feel free to propose a symbol file as bug in debian with attachment ;-)12:48
asacsiretart: can you post your process to the bug then?12:48
asacthanks12:48

pittierm, "max"17:21
pittiif it's been in proposed for three weeks and we haven't heard about problems, then it can't be too bad17:21
smbDid I hear my name?17:21

pittismb: boo!17:22

JontheEchidnaah, its part of hal. If you have apps that still need hal, it'll be there, but the default Ubuntu install shouldn't have hal by default17:25

hyperairjcastro: ping.18:25
jcastropong18:26
hyperairjcastro: when conducting a bug jam, how do you usually avoid stepping on each others' feet?18:27
kirklandcjwatson: thank you thank you thank you!18:27
hyperairjcastro: like person X changes bug A, person Y performs a redundant action on bug A at the same time18:28
jcastrohyperair: section off groups of bugs to each group, so like, either by package, or by status18:28
* vish had just set up hyperair for unassigned bugs and jcastro messed that up :p18:29
hyperairhehh18:29
hyperairjcastro: yeah, so like vish said, i was planning to work on unassigned bugs, since there are quite a lot of them, and we don't have much time.18:29

mdzSpamapS, re: your memcached branch, the code in debian/preinst needs a test for the arguments to preinst18:34
mdzI see it was copied from gearman, and it looks like gearman is buggy in this respect also18:34
SpamapSmdz: does seem like this would be a useful addition to debhelper so we stop making these mistakes .. since gearman copied it from mysql... ;)18:35
mdzSpamapS, indeed18:35
cjwatsonit's being added to dpkg, if this is what I think you mean18:35
cjwatsonconffile handling?18:35
mdzcjwatson, adding a user18:35
cjwatsonah ok18:36
mdzbut this is a general issue with maintainer scripts, forgetting the tests18:36
mdzthe mysql one even has the comment at the top "summary of how this script can be called" but ignores it ;-)18:37
SpamapSmdz: another thing that would be awesome would be if pbuilder simulated failures to test the abort states of the maintainer scripts.18:43
mdzSpamapS, sounds like the sort of thing which would fit into piuparts if it isn't there already18:46

leonpeggHello all I know this is not the place to ask but ubuntu-app-devel were unable to help, could anyone here help me with packaging some sourcecode ? Situation (attempting to package the php-gtk2 source into a source package except need it to output multipul binary packages from the one source tree)20:14
leonpeggwould be happy to be pointed to the direction of a tut on it (but cant find one myself)20:14
directhexleonpegg, try #ubuntu-motu for more beginner packaging help20:15
lifelessand/or #ubuntu-packagng20:15
leonpeggThanks guys :DF20:15
geser#ubuntu-packaging20:15
Laneywhat's that channel for?20:16
LaneyIs -motu no longer the place?20:16
leonpeggseems as if both rooms have people in :D20:17
leonpegglooks like motu is for offical packages and packaging is for ppa's and the likes20:17
directhexasac, any idea when you'll be able to look at the downstream mono arm breakage? i completely give up on getting a build environment going without real hardware, it's just not happening, and i've spent about 2 days on this so far with reality fighting against me. best i can do is reverting whichever ubuntu patches broke building in debian20:19
ogra_cmpcdirecthex, sudo apt-get install qemu-arm-static && sudo qemu-debootstrap --arch armel maverick maverick-chroot && sudo chroot maverick-chroot20:23
ogra_cmpcdirecthex, oh, wait, you do mono, the above works for everything but mono thanks to boehm gc20:24
TylerGaltHello everyone, while browsing https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM , I stumbled on this sentence: "However this almost always NOT be the same hash as the iso image that was burned to the disk"20:26
TylerGaltWhile english is my second language, I feel like a verb is missing, but I'm not sure how best to correct this (I just created an account on the wiki). Would "However this *will* almost always NOT be the same hash as the iso image that was burned to the disk" work better in your opinion? Or should we revamp the whole sentence?20:26
JontheEchidna"However this will almost always..."20:27
JontheEchidnayes20:27
TylerGaltcool, thanks :)20:27
JontheEchidna(sorry, lag)20:27
TylerGalt(no problem :) I wanted to double-check: it would have been dumb to correct the sentence to introduce a grammatical error. Goodbye everyone, and thanks for working on Ubuntu (love it) )20:30
