| zooko | Folks: which is the deadline that would apply to uploading a new version of a current universe package? (Tahoe-LAFS) | 06:29 |
|---|---|---|
| zooko | Beta Freeze? | 06:30 |
| zooko | Tahoe-LAFS v1.6.1 is currently packaged in Lucid. | 06:30 |
| zooko | The current stable release of Tahoe-LAFS is v1.7.1. | 06:30 |
| zooko | I *hope* that Tahoe-LAFS v1.8.0 will be released by the end of August, but that is a few days past the Beta Freeze and anyway the Tahoe-LAFS schedule could well slip. | 06:31 |
| zooko | So, I guess I should try to get Tahoe-LAFS v1.7.1 uploaded for Maverick. :-) | 06:31 |
| zooko | Hm... how do I initiate that process? Tahoe-LAFS is not (yet) in Debian. | 06:32 |
| LucidFox | okay | 08:57 |
| LucidFox | when I try to build with pbuilder-dist sid armel build, it spams the console with | 08:57 |
| LucidFox | "qemu: Unsupported syscall: 335" | 08:57 |
| === CieD is now known as Ciemon | ||
| LucidFox | "qemu: could not open serial device 'stdio': Success" | 09:32 |
| === yofel_ is now known as yofel | ||
| bulldog98 | what is the sence of lintian-override files? | 13:05 |
| umang | bulldog98, I think it is when a certain lintian error or warning clearly doesn't apply to you, or you are justified in ignoring a certain error/warning, you can override it. | 13:07 |
| bulldog98 | ok thanks umang | 13:07 |
| umang | sure. | 13:08 |
| umang | bulldog98, I'm not sure about MOTU, but on Debian you have to inform anyone sponsoring your upload about the override and why you've done it while requesting for a sponsor. | 13:08 |
| bulldog98 | umang: that’s not the point I simply wanted to update an package and understand why there are files like that | 13:09 |
| bulldog98 | ^^ | 13:09 |
| umang | bulldog98, ok. | 13:10 |
| umang | :) | 13:10 |
| ScottL | if i wanted to add a patch to package in a development release (i.e. maverick) what would i need to do? | 14:27 |
| lfaraone | ScottL: use "edit-patch" on the source, if it uses a patch system. | 15:32 |
| ScottL | lfaraone, oh, i know how to apply the patch, rather i meant how do i get the patch applied to the package in the archives ? | 15:35 |
| lfaraone | ScottL: you submit a debdiff or a bzr branch and request sponsorship. | 15:38 |
| ScottL | lfaraone, that's what i thought, thanks! | 16:03 |
| lfaraone | ScottL: which package? | 16:03 |
| ScottL | lfaraone, gnome-system-tools , this is the package that ubuntu studio uses for network connections (and configuration) but a patch was applied to disable the interfaces because network-manager was chosen as default | 16:07 |
| ScottL | unfortunatly the 10_disable_interfaces.patch prevents configuration of network, which prevents ubuntu studio users from configuring their network | 16:08 |
| ScottL | since gnome-network-admin (the actual package built by gnome-system-tools) is now in universe and not installed by default on ubuntu desktop i was hoping to remove the 10_disable_interfaces.patch | 16:09 |
| ScottL | thus given ubuntu studio users the functionality to configure their network | 16:09 |
| ScottL | it should be pointed out that ubuntu studio has chosen not to use network-manager because of its dynamic loading that it puts onto the cpu which intermittantly increases latency | 16:11 |
| ScottL | which should be recognized as a Bad Thing (yes, i capitalized that) for a multimedia distribution | 16:11 |
| azeem | ScottL: dynamic loading? | 16:11 |
| ScottL | azeem, my understanding is that network-manager does not apply a consistent cpu loading, i believe this is when it is searching for other wifi networks that are available | 16:16 |
| lfaraone | If I'm sponsoring a merge that has a debian-ubuntu debdiff, should I dget the latest Debian version and apply the diff? | 16:24 |
| BlackZ | lfaraone: yes, for example if you're going to sponsor foobar 0.0.1-1ubuntu1 and the debian package is 0.0.1-1 you will want the dsc of foobar 0.0.1-1 from debian | 16:26 |
| vish | anyone around to sponsor : Bug #604636 ? | 17:21 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 604636 in One Hundred Paper Cuts "Description: Cheese is too "cheesy"!" [Low,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/604636 | 17:21 |
| Laney | vish: you are mistaken: that text is in the Debian description | 17:24 |
| vish | Laney: it was in the ubuntu diff | 17:25 |
| Laney | ...I just looked at it | 17:25 |
| vish | oh! | 17:26 |
| Laney | laney@chicken> grep cheesy debian/control ~/temp/cheese-2.30.1 Cheese is a cheesy program to take pictures and videos from your web | 17:26 |
| vish | Laney: cheese_2.30.1-0ubuntu2.diff.gz , mentioned it , so am a bit confused :s | 17:27 |
| Laney | the diff.gz contains all changes, not just ubuntu ones | 17:27 |
| Laney | lsdiff -z *.diff.gz | 17:28 |
| Laney | but is this really the kind of thing that papercuts is about anyway? | 17:28 |
| Laney | seems exceedingly trivial | 17:28 |
| vish | Laney: this cycle the descriptions are getting a make over too | 17:29 |
| Laney | as you wish, it's your time | 17:29 |
| Laney | I suggest that you don't deviate from Debian over this though | 17:30 |
| vish | Laney: hmm , now I have to re-open upstream bug :s | 17:30 |
| * vish need to figure that out.. | 17:30 | |
| Laney | http://www.debian.org/Bugs/Developer get this page bookmarked | 17:30 |
| vish | Laney: how to re-open a debian bug? | 17:31 |
| Laney | that page will guide you | 17:31 |
| vish | just now , did the -done reply | 17:31 |
| * vish reads :) | 17:31 | |
| ari-tczew | MoM/universe: package hp-ppd 0.9ubuntu2 0.9-0.1 is it possible to upload 0.9-0.1ubuntu1 ? | 17:40 |
| crimsun_ | no | 17:42 |
| crimsun_ | ari-tczew: note that 0.9ubuntu2 will always sort after 0.9-0.1ubuntu1 (you can use dpkg --compare-versions to confirm) | 17:46 |
| ari-tczew | crimsun_: well, in this case only fakemerge is possible right? | 17:47 |
| ari-tczew | upload ubuntu3 with changes like in merge | 17:47 |
| crimsun_ | ari-tczew: "fakemerge"? Are you meaning to drop the Ubuntu delta ("fakesync") or to perform a merge? | 17:48 |
| ari-tczew | crimsun_: perform a merge in ubuntu3 | 17:48 |
| crimsun_ | yeah, you'll have to merge it | 17:48 |
| ari-tczew | crimsun_: are you expierenced with sound system? | 17:48 |
| crimsun_ | (do I really want to answer that question...?) | 17:49 |
| crimsun_ | ask away | 17:49 |
| ari-tczew | crimsun_: because I don;t have a sound on maverick and I;m not sure who is a sound system mastermind - you or TheMuso | 17:50 |
| crimsun_ | well, bugs are good, but what's the issue? Have you filed a bug using ubuntu-bug alsa-base? | 17:52 |
| crimsun_ | (nearly always filing a bug is more efficient) | 17:52 |
| ari-tczew | crimsun_: and what I can write there? I don't have a sound? | 17:56 |
| crimsun_ | ari-tczew: I need the apport-attached info more than I need your description of "don't have a sound" | 17:56 |
| crimsun_ | sorry, I don't intend that to sound rude, but "no sound" is too vague to be useful | 17:57 |
| ari-tczew | crimsun_: why do you write that: (do I really want to answer that question...?) | 17:57 |
| ari-tczew | because I don't understand | 17:58 |
| crimsun_ | ari-tczew: I've endured a fairly significant amount of grief for sound issues over the past five years. | 18:01 |
| ari-tczew | heh | 18:02 |
| * hyperair wonders what kernel maverick has. | 18:03 | |
| hyperair | i know that 2.6.35-rc6 successfully borked both sound and bluetooth for me. | 18:03 |
| hyperair | not sure how those two are related though | 18:03 |
| crimsun_ | maverick's currently released kernel is 2.6.35-rc5-based | 18:03 |
| hyperair | hmm then it can't be that =) | 18:04 |
| crimsun_ | ubuntu-maverick.git has 2.6.35-rc6 merged (in 2.6.35-12.17); you can find it in the kernel ppa | 18:04 |
| hyperair | maybe i'll give that one a go. i might have screwed something up here on my own. | 18:05 |
| ari-tczew | does someone want to merge phpbb3? | 18:26 |
| MTecknology | Are there any chances of php5-5.3.3 making it into maverick? | 18:37 |
| MTecknology | or would that be an extremely high expectaction? | 18:38 |
| MTecknology | s/expectaction/request/ | 18:38 |
| crimsun_ | MTecknology: it'd be easier if it were already in Debian unstable | 19:03 |
| MTecknology | crimsun_: I'd consider trying to help get it there, I'm sure zul needs help. I remember the last time I tried to work with that package I wound up in an angry place for a week straight and then just gave up.. | 19:05 |
| MTecknology | crimsun_: I should try again anyway, huh? - when's the import freeze? | 19:06 |
| MTecknology | oh.. that was a month ago.. | 19:07 |
| MTecknology | crimsun_: maybe for 11.04, right? :) | 19:11 |
| crimsun_ | MTecknology: it's never too late to help in Debian, and exceptions can always be requested in Ubuntu | 19:16 |
| MTecknology | crimsun_: I'll do my best - it was only release a few days ago iirc :) | 19:17 |
| Muscovy | .join #Ubuntu-MOTU-Sponsors | 21:48 |
