| bdrung | DktrKranz: did you request a mailing list? | 09:42 |
| DktrKranz | bdrung: I did, I have to configure it properly first, though | 09:59 |
| DktrKranz | bdrung, ajmitch: approved :) | 10:19 |

| Laney | UDD is fun | 12:05 |
| Rhonda | What's that query? | 12:10 |
| * geser should file more bugs in the Debian BTS :) | 12:10 | |
| Laney | Rhonda: I don't think you want to see it :P | 12:12 |
| Laney | but it's in my home-directory on alioth | 12:13 |
| Laney | cat ~laney-guest/udd-bugs.pl | 12:13 |
| Laney | for some reason it doesn't run right from that script though, so I just generated the resultset from psql directly | 12:13 |
| * ajmitch isn't on that list... | 12:14 | |
| Laney | ajmitch: It searches for @ubuntu @canonical or origin-ubuntu usertag | 12:14 |
| Laney | Rhonda: try ~laney-guest/ubuntu-bts-reporters.txt, that's just the query | 12:15 |
| ajmitch | probably because I use @d.o & never use the usertags as I should | 12:15 |
| Laney | ajmitch: I don't know how you can be classified as an ubuntu person then | 12:15 |
| ajmitch | I can't, but I don't mind that :) | 12:15 |
| Laney | indeed | 12:16 |
| Laney | it's just a bit of fun anyway. I don't think such metrics are meaningful | 12:16 |
| ajmitch | nice to see how short a script it can be done with | 12:17 |
| vish | Laney: doing a debian census, are we? :D | 12:17 |
| Laney | vish: Just seeing what can be done with UDD | 12:18 |
| * vish has double digits count, yay! | 12:18 | |
| * ajmitch should file more bugs | 12:21 | |
| Rhonda | It's another one of those useless comparisons without enough deeper insight like 16% vs. 1% gnome contribution or 7.2% vs. 2.8% of open bugs with patches. | 12:21 |
| Rhonda | I always tried to promote for the Debian (website) translation work to *not* look at the numbers because that's a look for quantity instead of quality … | 12:22 |
| ajmitch | but having 600k bugs is good, no? :) | 12:22 |
| Rhonda | Unfortunately I regularly have failed to get that point across and people still pride themself with numbers. :/ | 12:22 |
| Rhonda | ajmitch: Neither Debian nor Ubuntu has 600k bugs. Or maybe. Again depends of point of view and how to try to lie with statistics. :) | 12:23 |
| ajmitch | launchpad karma is a good example of numbers influencing what people do | 12:23 |
| Rhonda | Actually, it's also easy to cheat your way into karma without too much work done or even _important_ work done. | 12:24 |
| Rhonda | Usually important work takes longer and gives less karma. | 12:24 |
| Rhonda | Thanks for yet another nice example for bad number chasing. | 12:24 |
| Laney | I can't say I've ever looked at the karma of anyone other than myself, and even then only for curiosity | 12:24 |
| ajmitch | Laney: take a look at the karma for someone who touches a lot of blueprints | 12:25 |
| Laney | and I doubt that anyone forwards bugs to Debian in order to get up some kind of ranking | 12:25 |
| Laney | ajmitch: I know it's there, but does it really influence anything or anyone? | 12:25 |
| vish | ajmitch: yeah , some one recently did that before applying for an Ubuntu membership :s | 12:25 |
| ajmitch | it does for some people when they're going for membership | 12:25 |
| vish | ajmitch: of course they didnt get it ;) | 12:25 |
| Laney | I'd hope that the membership boards can see beyond it | 12:25 |
| ajmitch | they do | 12:26 |
| vish | Laney: they use the karma to quantify work , *if* work is based on lp.. | 12:26 |
| vish | but not a necessity. | 12:27 |
| Laney | That data I just generated is interesting to see who is active in Debian, but I don't think you could use it to play anyone off against anyone else | 12:28 |
| Laney | it's not comparable to the gnome census thing | 12:28 |
| ajmitch | interesting to look at though | 12:28 |
| vish | Laney: nah , i was just kidding.. :) | 12:29 |
| ajmitch | DktrKranz: going to post somewhere about that team? | 12:36 |

| jetienne_ | q. any kind enougth to explain dh_usrlocal ? i read the man page but i dont get it. dh_usrlocal is complaining when i do 'debuild -i -us -uc -b' | 12:52 |
| jetienne_ | ok ignored it with override_dh_usrlocal ... lets hope it is not dangerous :) | 12:56 |
| MTecknology | So.. If I had to fix a broken .dsc file but have all the files, how do I correctly unpack it? Can I use dget after I have the files? | 14:05 |
| james_w | dpkg-source -x <whatever>.dsc | 14:05 |
| MTecknology | thanks :) | 14:05 |
| geser | jetienne: what error did you got? | 14:08 |
| Rhonda | If the .dsc file is broken, how should dpkg-source -x work? | 14:10 |
| jetienne | geser: about dh_usrlocal ? | 14:10 |
| jetienne | dh_usrlocal: debian/neoip-utils/usr/local/lib/neoip-utils/node-neoip.kpf is not a directory <- i got many like this one at the end of "debuild -i -us -uc -b" geser | 14:10 |
| geser | jetienne: why do you have files in /usr/local/ in the first place? | 14:11 |
| jetienne | geser: because i copy them there... not sure what you mean | 14:11 |
| geser | packages shouldn't use /usr/local, it's for the local sysadmin | 14:11 |
| jetienne | geser: ok. where should i put files which are script, aka not i386 native | 14:12 |
| geser | /usr/share/<pkg> if they are arch-indep and /usr/lib/<pkg> else | 14:13 |
| jetienne | geser: thanks it did the job. | 14:15 |
| jetienne | unusual-interpreter i got a lot of these too. i guess this is normal | 14:15 |
| tumbleweed | which interpreter? | 14:16 |
| jetienne | nodejs | 14:16 |
| jetienne | script-not-executable those too | 14:16 |
| tumbleweed | if that's a binary provided by that package, then that's expected, add an override for the unusual-interpreter | 14:16 |
| tumbleweed | if they should be executable, then you need to fix that | 14:17 |
| jetienne | tumbleweed: how can i override litian stuff ? | 14:18 |
| tumbleweed | jetienne: you only override if you *know* you are right. dh_lintian can install binary package overrides. source package overrides are found as described in the lintian manpage | 14:20 |
| jetienne | tumbleweed: hmm ok, well i dunno much | 14:21 |
| jetienne | i guess i will live with the warning for now | 14:21 |
| geser | what warnings? | 14:21 |
| jetienne | embedded-javascript-library extra-license-file readme-debian-contains-debmake-template binary-without-manpage unusual-interpreter. | 14:23 |
| jetienne | for only the few firsts :) | 14:23 |
| tumbleweed | jetienne: almost all of those need to be fixed, unusual-interpreter was thone I was saying you may need to override eventually | 14:23 |
| tumbleweed | (err, not need to, may want to) | 14:24 |
| jetienne | tumbleweed: i understand. just a matter of priority | 14:24 |

| Riddell | anyone heard of Ubuntu Tweak? | 17:17 |
| Riddell | do we want it in the archive? | 17:17 |
| bdrung | Riddell: heard of it. | 17:19 |
| Riddell | bdrung: heard good things or bad things? :) | 17:20 |
| tumbleweed | apparently it isn't as bad as the (horrific) predecesors, no idea about code quality, though | 17:20 |
| bdrung | Riddell: no bad things yet. | 17:20 |
| bdrung | but we should look at the code to check if it's sane | 17:21 |
| Riddell | apps which tweak the settings of other apps just seem like a bad idea, if the original app can't do it there's probably a good reason | 17:22 |
| tumbleweed | OTOH, if one of these things can be blessed, it'd make people less likely to destroy their machines | 17:22 |

| === fta_ is now known as fta | ||
| LucidFox | Riddell, regarding ubuntu-tweak in NEW, my personal gut impulse would be "ugh, hackish way to do ugly things" | 18:49 |
| LucidFox | But well... it passed REVU then, I presume? | 18:49 |
| Riddell | apachelogger: see, I'm not alone :) | 18:50 |

| Riddell | that was the one I'd been trying to remember the name of | 18:50 |
| LucidFox | Automatix also had gaping security issues | 18:50 |
| apachelogger | Riddell: well, I dunno how ubuntu tweak does things but we had a similar tool in KDE 3 times | 18:50 |
| apachelogger | there are settings that are just to marginal to justify being visible in the GUI | 18:51 |
| Laney | LucidFox: yes, indeed, that was kind of my point | 18:51 |
| Riddell | apachelogger: we did? | 18:51 |
| apachelogger | yep | 18:51 |
| LucidFox | ubuntu-tweak is in REVU's "needs review", with 0 comments | 18:51 |
| * apachelogger packaged it :P | 18:51 | |
| Riddell | apachelogger: what was that? | 18:51 |
| apachelogger | gotta look | 18:51 |
| Riddell | LucidFox: hmm maybe I should reject it on grounds it hasn't passed revu | 18:52 |
| apachelogger | Riddell: https://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kde-tweak | 18:52 |
| Laney | Riddell: I'm sure you can find a policy violation in there | 18:52 |
| Laney | does it modify files in /etc, for example? | 18:53 |
| apachelogger | Riddell: REVU is not obligatory IIRC, neither is getting two MOTU acks | 18:53 |

| ajmitch | tumbleweed: that does look to be in universe for lucid | 23:29 |
| ajmitch | (policykit), that is | 23:30 |
| tumbleweed | ajmitch: the bug is not target at lucid though? | 23:30 |
| ajmitch | no | 23:30 |
| bdrung | tumbleweed: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/policykit | 23:30 |
| ajmitch | but the bug has multiple bug tasks | 23:30 |
| ajmitch | policykit-1 is in main, policykit in universe | 23:30 |
| ari-tczew | jdong: holidays? | 23:31 |
| ajmitch | sponsoring page may only be looking at the last task listed | 23:31 |
| tumbleweed | bdrung: oh, I was looking at the hover text on the policykit line in the bug | 23:31 |
| tumbleweed | it must have been demoted after upload | 23:31 |
| bdrung | who worked on the sponsors queue? we are down 139 (from ~190 yesterday) | 23:32 |
| geser | bdrung: someone is "stealing" you work? :) | 23:33 |
| * tumbleweed has been hitting it a little | 23:33 | |
| tumbleweed | but not that much | 23:33 |
| bdrung | geser: no. i just want to say: thank you | 23:33 |
| * ajmitch hasn't been stealing any work there | 23:33 | |
| bdrung | main: 132 -> 110, universe: 49 -> 28 | 23:34 |
| * ajmitch is going to try & focus on doing some work in debian for awhile | 23:35 | |
| bdrung | geser: when i work on the queue, i just keep it at the same level. i sponsor five requests and in this time five new ones are added :) | 23:35 |
| * tumbleweed needs to do that too. I got distracted from debian after getting MOTU rights | 23:35 | |
| ajmitch | bdrung: we can let it creep up to ~50 or so if you prefer? | 23:35 |
| bdrung | ajmitch: but only with sync requests. ;) (sponsor-patch is not ready yet) | 23:36 |
| ari-tczew | dholbach does a lot of sponsoring | 23:36 |
| highvoltage | tumbleweed: I guess that happens :) | 23:36 |
| ajmitch | bdrung: sync requests are relatively easy though | 23:37 |
| bdrung | ajmitch: yes, that one reason why i process them first | 23:37 |
| tumbleweed | highvoltage: but by sponsoring, I'm helping people improve their development skills, but not applying myself to make debian/ubuntu better | 23:37 |
| ari-tczew | I'd help in clean sponsors queue. | 23:37 |
| highvoltage | "jonathan@ubuntu.com has 1 fix" that's so sad :( | 23:38 |
| ari-tczew | highvoltage: it's you? | 23:38 |
| * ajmitch is currently raging at python-setuptools being unhelpful, it's not conducive to getting things sponsored | 23:38 | |
| highvoltage | tumbleweed: helping others getting better at contributing is big! | 23:39 |
| highvoltage | ari-tczew: yep, I guess that will get better over the next few weeks at least | 23:39 |
| tumbleweed | highvoltage: yes, but it means I'm not working on some big jobs that I should be working on | 23:39 |
| ajmitch | highvoltage: you've got some time to do some bugfixing now? | 23:39 |
| bdrung | tumbleweed: you will improve debian/ubuntu in the long run, because the contributor will become motu one day | 23:40 |
| tumbleweed | bdrung: yes, I do enjoy it. | 23:40 |
| tumbleweed | ajmitch: jonathan=highvoltage, yes, he got in early :) | 23:41 |
| ajmitch | tumbleweed: I know highvoltage from long ago :) | 23:41 |
| highvoltage | ajmitch: it will be some bugs in ltsp and edubuntu that I planned to work on over the next few weeks anyway :) | 23:41 |
| tumbleweed | highvoltage: that bug I mentioned (#221363) is ltsp-related (and I'm dropping it off the sponsor queue because it's only a patch) | 23:42 |
| highvoltage | tumbleweed also knows me from long ago :) (well, and recently :)) | 23:42 |
| tumbleweed | ajmitch: sorry, meant ari-tczew | 23:42 |
| * ajmitch feels old | 23:44 | |
| tumbleweed | highvoltage: back then we all thought you were crazy, using this silly ubuntu distribution... :) | 23:45 |
| ajmitch | you don't think he's crazy enough now? :) | 23:46 |
| tumbleweed | ajmitch: it's nice on latops :P | 23:47 |
| highvoltage | s/laptops/devices with wi-fi/g :) | 23:47 |
| highvoltage | actually waking up from suspend is a *lot* faster on maverick (almost instant) on my hardware so someone have been doing real good work somewhere | 23:48 |
| ajmitch | I may have to upgrade then | 23:48 |
| ajmitch | since I've had the problem of often having resume take a long time | 23:48 |
| tumbleweed | suspend is semi-broken for me atm. Must find out what the issue is... | 23:49 |
| ari-tczew | some guy has uploaded a package to REVU, but now he is offline since 20th June. I'd to upload updated package. can I do it? | 23:49 |
| micahg | ari-tczew: have you tried contacting the user through LP? | 23:50 |
| highvoltage | ari-tczew: revu isn't a strict requirement for sponsoring a package, so if it's in good shape I guess you can make that judgement call | 23:50 |
| ari-tczew | micahg: I picked his e-mail adress from LP and sent message by Evolution. | 23:51 |
| micahg | ari-tczew: k, and no response? | 23:51 |
| ari-tczew | micahg: no response | 23:51 |
| ari-tczew | his karma on launchpad says that he has been active last 20th June | 23:52 |
| ajmitch | possibly on holiday for awhile | 23:52 |
| ari-tczew | ajmitch: fine, but I want to get this package before FFe | 23:52 |
| micahg | ari-tczew: yeah, so I guess like highvoltage said, you could take it over, but I'd try to give the user credit for whatever was done previously | 23:52 |
| ari-tczew | can someone main sponsors take this one? bug 613234 | 23:53 |

| Laney | I appreciate your comments and agree the idea is way past its best. But how else can a newspaper with a plummeting circulation get people to buy the paper?! | 23:54 |

| Laney | oops | 23:54 |
| Laney | middle click...... | 23:54 |
| ajmitch | 'oops' indeed | 23:54 |
| micahg | lol | 23:54 |
| Laney | at least it wasn't obscene! | 23:54 |
| * Laney blames legacy X11 features | 23:54 | |
| ajmitch | at least you didn't past a password! | 23:54 |
| Laney | maybe I did… | 23:55 |
| ajmitch | that would be a passphrase | 23:55 |
| Laney | pedants, in MY #ubuntu-motu‽ | 23:55 |
| ajmitch | never | 23:56 |
| * ajmitch hopes that debian NEW isn't moving too slowly at the moment | 23:56 | |
