Hopsaion: The application itself is nicely written and will be the control panel for all the gadmintools apps.00:00
Hopsaion: http://mange.dynalias.org/linux/gadmin-control-panel/gadmin-control-panel-0.0.4.tar.gz00:00
HopsaNice to not have to write a password to open up the server control panels plus it saves space on the desktop etc00:01
HopsaSome people like to know what it does and what its good for etc so i wrote that down: http://mange.dynalias.org/linux/gadmin-control-panel/screenshots/gadmin-control-panel-features.txt00:02
Hopsaion: Checked the code ? / Made that partly in 2004 somewhere and finished it in 3 days now.00:03
HopsaThe hard part was sizing all images to fit and scale properly with eachother on the horizontal and vertical planes.00:04
HopsaI have noticed that the gadmin-dhcpd icon looks like crap. Its a very early icon i made in gimp (With arrows as cables pointing downwards) and the computer icon is yellow and the screen is black. I have told upstream or downstream Debian in my case to let the original .png files be .png and not convert them to .xpm and loose resolution or just use the real .png files.00:10
HopsaWell, i hope some of you enjoy the applications i made so far. Have a great time!00:11
HopsaDont hesitate to ask for help regarding any of the applications.00:13

pranay_09hi, i have build an application , in java and i want to make a .deb package of it,where can i find instructions on how to do it?04:01
persiahttp://wiki.debian.org/Java/Packaging has some pointers that may be useful.04:04
persiaIf you're using ant, it's easiest.04:05
pranay_09persia, thanks04:06
pranay_09how do i know the JAVA_HOME and CLASSPATH?04:36
pranay_09i did gedit /etc/environment but didn't find them there04:37
persiaYou set the CLASSPATH you need to build.  You'll probably end up needing to list a few jars from your build-dependencies.04:40
pranay_09ok04:40
persiaJAVA_HOME is tricky.  I've never had a good handle on it.  Try asking in #debian-java on OFTC (irc.oftc.org)04:41
pranay_09persia, i checked the link /usr/bin/java which pointed to some other link, and ultimately it's /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/bin/java  . I think this is correct?04:54
persiaThat works as long as you're using openJDK.04:55
pranay_09ya i have been using that only04:56
pranay_09any problem in it?04:57
persiaWell, there's bugs :)  Also, some folks like gcj.04:57
persiaAlso it doesn't handle some architectures.04:57
pranay_09persia, ok, so what's the alternative?05:04
* persia thought there was some smart JAVA_HOME path that did the right thing.05:05
persiaIndeed: JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/default-java05:06
persiahttp://pkg-java.alioth.debian.org/docs/tutorial.html has lots of useful bits.05:06
pranay_09so should i include this path in my /etc/environment file for JAVA_HOME?05:08
persiaNo.  You don't want JAVA_HOME set in /etc/environment05:09
* persia doesn't remember why, precisely05:09
pranay_09ok, then that should be in the debina/rules file as shown in http://pkg-java.alioth.debian.org/examples/library-nodeps/ ?05:11
pranay_09*debian/rules05:11
persiaYep.05:11
pranay_09ok, thanks :)05:12
JontheEchidna(thanks to whomever pushed muon through)05:17
pranay_09persia, i have basically two java programmes, one is the gui and other has some code, and this requires a package called "spd-say" (no library) so which option should i go for in this page http://pkg-java.alioth.debian.org/examples/   it's not clear to me05:24
persiaI'd probably use "Simple program using ant" for the gui, and "simple library using ant" for the code on which the GUI depends.05:25
pranay_09ok05:26
pranay_09persia, i have made both the programmes in netbeans 6.8 and under the netbeans folder i have the programme folder ,"Application" (which itself has sub-folders of build, src,nbproject,test,and files build.xml,and manifest.mf). Now in the given example of Simple programme using ant what should be the foo.jar file? and what's the usr/share/foo?05:38
pranay_09persia, ping05:47
persiapranay_09, Hrm.  I haven't worked with new code in netbeans for too long to be sure.  Sorry.  The folks in #debian-java can probably give better advice, but it will be quiet there for a couple more hours.06:11

Gwhats the policy for creating an SRU candidate if the package has no patch system, should I add the patch system used in newer releases or use someother patch method?10:03
GI'm assuming just implement the patch system used in maverick but I just want to be sure10:04
persiaGenerally one tries to use the patch system preferred by the maintainer.  that one was added in maverick makes that a good choice.10:04

tkamppeterpitti, tjaalton, this seems to be a completely new problem. It seems that a new feature (not known which one) in CUPS has torn down other parts of CUPS, as usual.12:12
Gbtw, I take it as we are in FeatureFreeze there is no real use of doing Merge requests, or does that not apply to Universe?12:13
tjaaltontkamppeter: "as usual"? :)12:14
persiaG, Depends on the merge.  http://qa.ubuntuwire.com/bugs/rcbugs/maverick/ has a rich set of potentially useful merges in need of review.12:15

=== zyga is now known as zyga-lunch
Gpersia: so the ones on that list are the ones that are most important to do12:17
tkamppetertjaalton, pitti, CUPS has a cache in /var/cache/cups/. Here it caches things like list of available PPDs and also the remote printers discovered automatically via IPP. Looks like a bug in the writing of the info into the cache or the readback out of the cache, so that wrong info gets supplied if CUPS relies on the cache, but CUPS has correct info if it obtains it directly.12:17
tkamppetertjaalton, good idea, perhaps it got fixed.12:18
persiaG, No.  The ones on that list are packages where Debian fixed a bug that Debian declared Release Critical.  In many cases, Ubuntu needs to fix the same bug, and can use the solution from Debian.12:18
persiaThe nice thing about that list is it includes bugs *AND* potential solutions, as opposed to many other sources of important bugs, that may not come with solutions.12:18
tkamppetertjaalton, with the "as usual" I mean that it often happens that if a new feature gets added in a new version, regression bugs occur.12:19

cjwatsonif you wanted to use quilt, you would need to include /usr/share/cdbs/1/rules/patchsys-quilt.mk instead, but I agree it's better to go with what's already in debian/rules - use dpatch-edit-patch to create the patch file14:49

bigonslomo: hi, any reason you removed gir on libgee in debian? http://packages.qa.debian.org/libg/libgee.html15:42
slomobigon: yes, to do it properly there has to be a package for the typelib too and i don't want to add new GI packages to anything until their ABI is stable15:43
bigonmmm could you add it in experimental? I really need it15:43
slomono, it doesn't make sense to go through NEW only to go through NEW again in 2-3 weeks15:44
bigonagain?15:44
bigonempathy need folks that need libgee and I really want to upload it in experimental15:45
slomobigon: yes, GI ABI changes... i won't touch any GI packaging stuff until it's really declared as stable and they use correct versioning (i.e. change the version in the paths and stuff when changing the ABI)15:45
bigonmmm ok15:46
bigonlet's see if I can build folks without introspection15:46
slomothe situation is simply unacceptable as it is now *shrug* also, which version of GI do you need to folks?15:46
bigon0.6.7 I think15:48

ogralol17:37
slangasekI didn't name it, I would've left the 'linaro' out of the package name ;)17:37
pittiogra: is the u-boot-omap4 task relevant? the package already produces a u-boot-linaro-omap4-panda binary, after all?17:38
pittithe maverick task is "wontfix", but I'm not clear whether we need a separate source at all now17:38
ograpitti, i want to recycle the bug for u-boot-omap4 rempoval request later17:38
ograwe wont need it anymore if the linaro one works17:39
ograthat bug evolved quite a lot ... its started with a breakage of u-boot-omap4 the research showed that the old source we have from TI is unfixable and the the linaro one has no such issues which produced the other task17:40
ograthen we turned it into a MIR :)17:40
ograand if the build sctipts are changed i'll turn it into a removal17:40
pittiogra: so, want me to remove u-boot-omap4?17:44
ograpitti, only after i changed the build scripts ... and i need a break first17:46
pittiogra: ok; don't worry, just asked if I should clean that up, but it's not that urgent17:47

chrisccoulsonhi, is someone able to approve firefox-3.6.9 for me please?23:05

cjwatsonI realise it's a bit late, but merges.ubuntu.com should be working again now (thanks to some advice from Keybuk on safe ways to free disk space)23:25
Hopsacjwatson: Are there any bugs filed againt dhcpd3 ? Its giving me a segfault on Lucid. "Invalid read of size 4"23:26
Hopsacjwatson: Whatever i do to the configuration it segfaults and it doesnt do that on any other of the dists i use.23:29
ScottKcjwatson: That's good news.  There's one bugfix merge I've been procrastinating because manual merge would be painful.23:29
HopsaIts a whole mayor version behind schedule23:29
HopsaRemove patches and release a newer binary.23:30
HopsaAlso: I noticed that Firefox stopped working on Ubuntu 8.04. -safe-mode would only show a the clear cookies etc things and then it would leave a zombie Firefox.23:32
HopsaIts got something to do with ns_loginit()23:33
HopsaSwitching xulrunners made no difference and reinstalling firefox did likewise23:34
cjwatsonHopsa: it's not usually a good plan to grab the last person who happened to talk in the channel in the assumption they'll know ;-)23:37
cjwatson"Remove patches and release a newer binary" <- no, patches would have been there for a reason, it requires slightly more checking than that particularly in a stable release23:38
cjwatsonbut I know very little about that package in particular23:38
HopsaI know that dhcpd should never need to be segfaulting. Please check this.23:39
HopsaIt does this on startup for me on Lucid with all current updates23:40
cjwatsonI'm afraid I have too much else to do right now23:40
cjwatsonplease simply file a bug23:40
HopsaSo servers are not a priority. hmm..23:40
cjwatsonhuh?23:41
cjwatsonnot my priority != not Ubuntu's priority23:41
cjwatsonI personally do not do much server work23:42
cjwatsonthis is why you generally shouldn't try to grab people personally on IRC until you're quite familiar with the project, but instead go through the bug tracking system23:42
HopsaSo ubuntu will only care about desktop things like openoffice and stuff ?23:42
cjwatsonnon sequitur23:42
cjwatsonyou asked me personally23:42
cjwatsonI do installer and bootloader stuff23:43
penguin42Hopsa: People care about servers, there is a #ubuntu-server I think23:43
HopsaFelix sit annus noctus23:43
HopsaOh, thanks penguin42 !23:43
penguin42Hopsa: It's just some people deal with different bits of stuff and the people who know about your problem might not be around23:43
penguin42Hopsa: File a bug against the package and they'll get told23:43
Hopsapenguin42: Thank you for your help. Ill keep an eye out for people in the know.23:48
chrisccoulsonHopsa, rather than "keeping an eye out", you should just file a bug on launchpad23:50
Hopsachrisccoulson: No, id rather get a hold of persons in the know. But thank you.23:51
chrisccoulsonhmmm, that's not the way to do it. imagine if every user did that? it would be chaos. the bug tracker exists for a reason23:51
penguin42Hopsa: File the bug anyway, it'll collect a load of stuff and backtrace and stuff which if you are lucky to find someone (which may be rare) it'll help them23:52
Hopsapenguin42: I need the unstripped libs for dhcpd to do so. How can i install those ?23:54
penguin42Hopsa: You can file the bug anyway - just run  ubuntu-bug dhcpd (or whatever the package is called)23:55
chrisccoulsonwell, you don't need them if you use apport. however, you can find the information you need here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash23:55
chrisccoulson(which you would have been told by someone else if you reported a bug)23:55
HopsaNope, i need to get the debug info or i cant pinpoint the error. Im developing stuff etc on Ubuntu and most other dists.23:56
chrisccoulsonok, so you sound like you don't really need any help then23:58
