| ajmitch | jcastro: nice dinosaur :) | 04:05 |
| nigelb | heh :) | 04:13 |
| * ajmitch awaits the dinosaur vs bird argument | 04:14 | |
| nigelb | evolution | 04:15 |
| nigelb | It was a mix of dinosaur vs bird. | 04:15 |
| nigelb | shoulda gotten a raptor though. | 04:15 |
| nigelb | More fierceful :p | 04:15 |
| ajmitch | maybe he'll get that on the other arm | 04:15 |
| nigelb | hahah | 04:16 |
| ajmitch | of course he had to be all metal & get the photos with the metallica shirt on :) | 04:16 |
| jcastro | there is no dino/bird argument! | 04:16 |
| ajmitch | and there he is! | 04:16 |
| ajmitch | hey :) | 04:16 |
| jcastro | hi aj | 04:17 |
| ajmitch | jcastro: so what are you getting for the other arm? a raptor as nigelb suggests? | 04:18 |
| jcastro | I have a snake there already | 04:19 |
| nigelb | ajmitch: that is not about being metal. | 04:19 |
| nigelb | ajmitch: its about keeping the job :p (you know, under jono) | 04:20 |
| ajmitch | of course | 04:20 |
| ajmitch | but jcastro was like that long before he became one of the horsemen :) | 04:20 |
| jcastro | yeah! | 04:20 |

| * ajmitch recalls the fun of uds in mt view | 04:21 | |

| ajmitch | yes | 04:21 |
| nigelb | I've only seen pictures :( | 04:21 |
| nigelb | jcastro: do you by chance have a python there? ;) | 04:22 |
| ajmitch | of course the main reason I use ubuntu one is to have somewhere to buy the latest iron maiden album :) | 04:22 |
| nigelb | hahaha | 04:22 |
| jcastro | ajmitch: hah that's how I got it | 04:22 |
| ajmitch | it worked well until it stalled on downloading the last track | 04:24 |
| * nigelb wishes he could buy stuff from ubuntu one | 04:24 | |
| nigelb | The ones I like aren't available for my region. Sigh. | 04:25 |
| ajmitch | I do have to use some hacks to get rhythmbox to use an ssh tunnel as a SOCKS proxy in order to get music in the US region | 04:25 |
| ajmitch | it's not nice | 04:25 |
| nigelb | Oh. See. Lots of sales lost :( | 04:26 |
| ajmitch | yes, the regional restrictions on it are the single most annoying thing about the music store | 04:26 |
| nigelb | Buts not Ubuntu One's blame per se. | 04:28 |
| nigelb | Music Industry operational methods. | 04:28 |
| ajmitch | no, but it's still annoying enough | 04:29 |

| ScottK | ajmitch: Would you be up for making cyrus-sasl2-heimdal build? | 04:50 |
| ajmitch | I can try, what's wrong with it? | 04:50 |
| ScottK | sample-server.c:69: error: conflicting types for 'getsubopt' | 04:51 |
| ScottK | /usr/include/stdlib.h:896: note: previous declaration of 'getsubopt' was here | 04:51 |
| ScottK | It needs a rebuild for NBS and it won't .... | 04:51 |
| ScottK | It would need a rebuild anyway to match the cyrus-sasl2 version. | 04:52 |
| ScottK | It's the last package left for the Heimdal transition. | 04:52 |
| ajmitch | fetching it now | 04:52 |
| ScottK | Thanks. | 04:53 |
| ajmitch | ScottK: it at least looks like cyrus-sasl2 had the exact same error fixed last month | 05:02 |
| ScottK | ajmitch: Sounds both convenient and plausible. | 05:02 |
| ajmitch | effectively the same source? | 05:02 |
| ScottK | Yes, just built against Heimdal instead of Kerberos or something. | 05:03 |
| ScottK | There's a Debian bug suggesting they can be merged now. | 05:03 |
| ScottK | It wasn't clear on exactly how though, so I'm pretty sure we should wait on going that far. | 05:03 |

| ScottK | You need to live somewhere with more bandwidth than a soda straw. | 05:05 |
| ajmitch | but we have hobbits here! | 05:06 |
| ajmitch | so much for trying to grab branches of cyrus-sasl2 | 05:09 |
| ajmitch | the idea of UDD is nice & all, but it's often just not there | 05:09 |
| ScottK | Yep. | 05:12 |
| ajmitch | ok, changes from cyrus-sasl2 applied fine, just waiting for pbuilder now | 05:16 |
| ScottK | Cool. | 05:17 |
| * ScottK didn't think to look there. | 05:18 | |
| ajmitch | here is where I need an SSD for compiling | 05:23 |
| micahg | ScottK: I think you misread teh changelog as did I, there's no new package for google gadgets, just the .docs file was mislabeled | 05:25 |

| canesin | Hi all.. I want to use an science package in an application I'm developing.. but the package in universe is years old... how can I take care if the package ?? Can I adopt it ?? | 19:43 |
| micahg | canesin: you can certainly work to keep it updated, we don't have "maintainers" per se | 19:44 |
| micahg | canesin: I think there's a MOTU science team | 19:44 |
| canesin | micahg: =) .. so how can I do that ?? I already have an launchpad account... | 19:45 |
| micahg | canesin: https://edge.launchpad.net/~motuscience | 19:47 |
| iulian | canesin: I suggest you to join the Debian science team and talk to them regarding that package. | 20:25 |
| iulian | If the current maintainer is MIA and the package is really outdated, it would be great if you could adopt it. | 20:25 |
| canesin | iulian Debian science ?? Go rigth upstream you say ?? | 20:26 |
| iulian | canesin: Upstream in this case is Debian. Take a look at http://wiki.debian.org/DebianScience. | 20:27 |
| canesin | iulian: Okey, but what I really would like it to have that package at ubuntu... I'm writing a new application that make use of it... and I believe most of the users will be ubuntu | 20:33 |
| canesin | iulian: wow !! The dabian package is even more older !!! The software is "paraview", the most recent one is 3.8.1 .. in ubuntu it is 3.4.0 and in debian it is 3.2.2 .. | 20:36 |
| iulian | canesin: I agree with you, but maybe the rest of them would be using Debian. | 20:36 |
| iulian | canesin: I see that 3.8.1 has just been uploaded to Debian a couple of weeks ago. | 20:38 |
| iulian | canesin: s/Debian/Debian unstable/ | 20:39 |
| iulian | And it's currently in Squeeze as well. | 20:39 |
| canesin | yeah... I'm see it now | 20:41 |
| canesin | I was in lenny branch | 20:41 |
| iulian | canesin: Oh, we've got 3.4.0 in Maverick. | 20:42 |
| * iulian adds it to my todo list. | 20:42 | |
| iulian | canesin: So yea, if you're interested in getting involved in maintaining paraview, please do consider joining the Debian Science team. Help is always needed. :) | 20:43 |
| canesin | iulian: Okey.. how do I do that ?? If I help update it in Debian it will make in Ubuntu universe ?? | 20:44 |
| canesin | I work at National Institute of Science and Technology in Thermophysics ... | 20:44 |
| canesin | Here most of us use ubuntu... | 20:45 |
| iulian | canesin: It seems that the Ubuntu package has local changes. In this case the package needs to be merged with the one that Debian has. | 20:48 |

| ubottu | canesin: If new updated Ubuntu packages are built for an application, then they may go into Ubuntu Backports. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports - See also !packaging | 23:51 |
| * micahg will brb | 23:51 | |
| canesin | lol .. is more complicated than I have imagined | 23:51 |
| RainCT | canesin: Well, all those different policies can be a bit overwhelming at first, but it's not that complicated once you know how it works. | 23:56 |
| RainCT | canesin: Basically you need to get the package into the current development release (Maverick) first, and when it's there you can ask for a backport to Lucid (which means it'll get copied into the "proposed" archive, wait for some people to test it and then it can get into "lucid-backports"). | 23:57 |
