[02:05] <ScottL> jussi, how often do you check listadmin?
[02:05] <ScottL> TheMuso, when you get a chance, could you answer a few questions about me doing an SRU, the wiki information isn't completely clear about something to me
=== kubotu_ is now known as kubotu
[03:05] <TheMuso> ScottL: sure
[03:14] <ScottL> TheMuso, thanks, i want to address a few issues in qjackctl and jack for 10.04.1
[03:14] <TheMuso> ScottL: ok
[03:15] <ScottL> for each of these a new upstream version was released that fixed the problem, do i still need to attach a patch to the SRU?
[03:15] <ScottL> or will the new ubuntu version just be used?
[03:16] <ScottL> i.e. use qjackctl-0.3.8 from maverick to fix the problem vs. qjackctl-0.3.5 that has the port renaming bug
[03:16] <TheMuso> ScottL: Unless the upstrea version fixes many problems that need addressing, its better to take the patch from upstrea that fixes the bug, and apply it to the Ubuntu package.
[03:16] <TheMuso> So take the single patch from 0.3.8 to fix the bug and apply it to lucid's 0.3.5.
[03:19] <ScottL> i'm not sure there was a "patch" from upstream, rather a new upstream version was released, but i can create the patch myself though
[03:19] <TheMuso> Yes, you have to extract the patch from the new upstream release that fixes that specific bug.
[03:22] <ScottL> okay, the next thing it says is to upload the fixed package to 'release-proposed'...
[03:23] <ScottL> not sure how to do this...is this with dput?
[03:23] <ScottL> and not sure if i had rights to upload to it as i'm not MOTU or anything
[03:25] <ScottL> TheMuso, ^^^
[03:26] <TheMuso> ScottL: You need to get someone to sponsor the upload for you.
[03:28] <ScottL> cool, that makes sense and is what i suspected
[03:28] <ScottL> very groovy, thanks TheMuso, i'll start working on them this week :)
[03:29] <TheMuso> ScottL: np
[10:45]  * abogani waves
[12:32] <ScottL> TheMuso, i had a thought while half awake in bed this morning, what if the package doesn't have a patch system right now?
[12:32] <ScottL> should i introduce quilt or dpatch?  or is there another way?
[21:58] <quadrispro> ScottL, composite has been uploaded to unstable
[21:58] <quadrispro> hey persia! how are you?
[21:59] <quadrispro> (hi guys!)
[22:19] <scott-work> doh, quadrispro is too quick to leave :P
[22:20] <scott-work> ardour 2.8.11 is released
[23:09] <TheMuso> ScottL: You simply apply the patch to the files in question directly, i.e don't create a patch. The patch will then become part of the diff.gz.
