ograTheMuso, i would like to see the fix mentioned in bug 631362 merged in pulse, any objections from your side ?09:23

ogra(we need to be able to do arch specific configs on some arm platforms)09:24
tkamppeterAnyone around who could do an update on the seeds for Maverick?09:28
cjwatsontkamppeter: what sort of change?09:40
micahgkdevelop's i386 packages have been pending publication for 3 days now09:42
cjwatsonthey're in NEW, I'll process that in a moment09:43
micahgcjwatson: ok, thanks :)09:43
tkamppetercjwatson, I have introduced putting PPDs in compressed archives in foomatic-db. The ready-made PostScript PPDs are already in such archives as there seed changes where not needed. This saves several MB on the desktop CDs. To save another 18 MB in the installed system I have also a replacement of the Foomatic XML data by a compressed PPD archive, but this needs replacing the requirement of foomatic-db-engine and foomatic-db by the requir09:44
tkamppeterement of foomatic-db-compressed-ppds in the seeds. This makes also the listing of all printer drivers ("lpinfo -m", adding printer with s-c-p) significantly faster. I have discussed this change with pitti last week.09:44
micahgdoh, it says that on the main build page for the version :-/09:44
cjwatsontkamppeter: changing the seeds is premature by a couple of hours, since I'm only just processing foomatic-db-compressed-ppds through the NEW queue ;-)09:44
tkamppetercjwatson, and pitti found it a good idea, and he has helped me to put the correct dependencies into the packages.09:45
tkamppetercjwatson, OK.09:45
cjwatsonsure - it needs to wait until foomatic-db-compressed-ppds is published, but I can make the change then09:45
cjwatsonis there any remaining case where foomatic-db-engine and foomatic-db should be listed?09:45
tkamppetercjwatson, no, end users do not need these two packages any more. Now these packages appear only in build dependencies of other packages.09:46
cjwatsonok09:46
cjwatsonmicahg: processed09:47
tkamppeterI have taken care of that by modifiying also the gutenprint and ptouch-driver packages where I have also replaced Foomatic XML data by compressed PPD archives.09:47
micahgcjwatson: thanks, sorry, I shouldn't have bothered you for that09:47
tkamppetercjwatson, thanks already now.09:48

tkamppetercjwatson, I have a question to the seed changes. Will they also affect Kubuntu, Xubuntu, Edubuntu, and especially the netbook editions? Especially on netbooks saving 18 MB on the installed system would be nice.12:13
Riddelltkamppeter: only if you're changing the platform.maverick seed12:14
cjwatsontkamppeter: yes.12:15
cjwatson(the change was in platform.maverick/desktop-common)12:15
cjwatsonUbuntu Studio needed to have the change copied over manually; I've done that12:16
cjwatsonbut the others will pick it up naturally12:16
ttxG: no.12:24
Gttx: it's okay, I was thinking about the wrong bug anyway :)12:34
cjwatsonScottK: why can't all the stuff in kubuntu-meta/README.Kubuntu.update be done by the update script?12:35
Riddellcjwatson: it should be, neither of us have spent the five minutes it would take to do it yet12:35
cjwatsonmaybe we should just take the opportunity to make it a new seed collection.  the current implementation is fundamentally wrong because it causes LP to want to put all the kubuntu-mobile packages in main12:37
Riddellthat would also seem sensible12:39
ogradoko, !12:39
persiacjwatson, Riddell: so, last week we talked about having kubuntu-mobile be a separate seed collection (I filed some of the relevant bugs), and it does require a LP change that would have had to be rolled out today.  The feedback I received all seemed to indicate it would be better to just do MIRs for the kubuntu-mobile stuff (and I think most of them are filed).12:42
cjwatsonwhat LP change?12:42
persiacron.germinate12:42
cjwatsonI suppose12:43
cjwatsonyes, if you wanted Task fields12:43

cjwatsonif it's all going into main, then it can stay as it is pending that, I think16:56
cjwatsonif kubuntu-mobile is going to stay in universe, then it needs to be a separate seed collection which as persia says would require a Launchpad change16:57
