AnAntit's been there for a while, I dont know why13:50
bdrungAnAnt: standard reason: lack of manpower13:51
AnAnteven for a package in main ?13:52
bdrungAnAnt: yes. especially. there are more motus working on sponsoring than core-devs13:52
tumbleweedAnAnt: look ta the sponsorship queue, it's dominated by main packages13:52
AnAntI see13:53
bdrungi became core-dev to gain the ability to sponsor main packages13:53

AnAntcrazy talking to myself !13:59
bdrungAnAnt: there is MoM, but it doesn't help sponsoring13:59
AnAntah, I understand now13:59
bdrungAnAnt: for sponsoring a sync request, i have to type one command and then it pulls the package, builds it, and allows me to upload it14:00
tumbleweedbdrung: although I find I spend a lot longer reviewing the changes than finding and applying patches14:01
bdrungtumbleweed: yes, reviewing takes the longest time14:02
bdrungbut it depends on how large the diff to debian is14:02
bdrungtumbleweed: is the debdiff http://launchpadlibrarian.net/50037132/openoffice.org-dictionaries-lucid-sru.patch really correct? You replace the broken South African English with the British English, don't you?14:05
AnAntbdrung: thanks again14:06
tumbleweedbdrung: yes it's correct14:06
tumbleweedwe did a broken workaround to use the en_GB.aff for en_ZA14:07

ryan22 i posted a notice about a new AppUpdate service for ubuntu on the devel discuss mailing list and i was just wondering what you guys thought23:34
faganryan22: we all sub the list so comments are posted there23:34
faganno need to ask for comments23:34
ryan22no prob23:35
faganoh and most of the devs are off for the weekend23:35
ryan22its just i only got a direct response from the getdeb guy, who has now agreed to track the packages on the service23:35
ryan22im going to be prefectly honest23:36
faganso not much point asking until monday23:36
faganryan22: I dont really follow packaging myself so I didnt read the thread myself23:36
ryan22the point of the service to influence ubuntu to adopt my model for the post update application process23:37
faganah well im sure that someone will comment on it during the week23:37
ryan22i wanna show that there is a way to provide up to date applications without sacifising stability23:37
ryan22;)23:37
faganit takes a few days sometimes to get a response23:37
ryan22i noticed your response on the process wiki and i think that your idea for a website to vote these applications is a great one23:39
faganwell Mark said at the UDS that they are going to be a lot more careful anyway about their repo policy to keep things more stable for the users23:39
faganthanks23:39
ryan22well you guys can always think of my service as a "beta"23:39
ryan22im trying to keep it as "official" as possible in terms of process and policy23:40
* fagan goes reading his emails23:40
=== fta_ is now known as fta
=== Caesar_ is now known as Caesar
ryan22man the only prob with my service is now i have like 81 packages to test...23:45
ryan22i asked a friend for help :P23:45
micahgryan22: I don't know that you'd be able to host Firefox in there23:46
* micahg was going to post to the ML, but hasn't gotten around to it yet23:46
ryan22on my former distro, i did host an updated version of firefox from one of the mozilla team ppas23:47
ryan22im avoiding applications that require core library updates in any case, just to keep things syable and simple23:47
ryan22*stable23:47
faganwell we are updating firefox more now from what I can remember23:48
ryan22gnome applications will not be to be updated on it, for example, as they usually require 300 package updates23:48
faganwe upgraded hardy, intrepid, jaunty and karmic to the most recent stable version I think23:49
ryan22so no empathy or epiphany updates :P23:49
micahgfagan: hopefully, by the next point release, all supported versions will be on 3.6.723:49
faganryan22: well the problem with that is the gnome stack is a lot more complicated23:49
ryan22ya23:49
faganand stuff breaks very very easy23:49
faganit would be unmaintainable IMO23:50
ryan22well i uses this system on my former linux distro, so ive worked out all the kinks23:50
ryan22and i know what application updates will be a pain *cough* gnome stuff *cough*23:50
faganryan22: well its the customisations thats the problem23:50
faganwe have so many things we do to make it Ubuntu23:50
ryan22mind stuff like banshee and rythmbox seems to update no prob with only a few packages23:51
ryan22well thats the point behind this23:51
faganwell RB and banshee require bindings and up to date gtk..etc that would have to be updated too so its still to hard23:51
ryan22I feel that Ubuntu is an organisation stretched to its limits. It's time for them to let go and let the developers maintain and package their own applications.23:51
ryan22not really actually23:51
ryan22banshee really only requires a few ipod mono libs23:52
ryan22i had 1.6.0 updated perfectly on karmic23:52
faganand the mono stack too23:52
faganand thats big enough too23:53
faganits not really workable23:53
ryan22to be honest, ive never had to upgrade mono when updating banshee23:53
faganryan22: if you look at the banshee ppa you will see they update mono for you when you install it23:53
ryan22if these updates require a such a core library update, they simply wont be updated23:53
ryan22but thats for hardy and older versions23:54
ryan22for karmic all you need to update is a few bashee and ipod mono libs23:54
ryan22which is pretty isolated23:54
ryan22youll see that alot actually in ppas23:55
faganI just think its unworkable because 1. its a lot of effort to keep track of the updates for the new and old versions already and 2. the ubuntu customisations each release23:55
ryan22hardy will usually require 12424 package updates, but karmic and lucid will barely require anything23:55
ryan22well this is a separate service23:55
ryan22and ive been doing this system for about... 5 months23:55
faganthe other applications are fine in ppas for users that want the newer versions and cant wait23:56
ryan22and ive had no such problems23:56
jcastrohi fagan, any progress on deluge?23:56
jcastrofagan: if you don't have time to do it let me know asap pls23:56
faganoh jcastro im just finishing off the software properties thing first23:56
faganI can do it but it wont be this week or maybe next either23:57
jcastrook23:57
faganif thats too late then feel free to get someone else on it23:57
jcastrofagan: I might have a contractor by then, I will let you know before I commit them though23:57
ryan22the problem is sometimes there are problems in the packages in the ppas (very rare, ive pushed like ~250 packages, and had it happen twice, but it does happen)23:57
faganjcastro: cool23:57
ryan22and its a pain keeping track and adding all those ppas23:57
ryan22eh23:58
faganryan22: I seem to remember someone talking about searching ppas if I remember23:58
ryan22well right now im tracking 35 PPAs23:59
ryan22and im planning on doing a testing-fest every sunday23:59
