micahgtumbleweed: yeah, I'll try to pay more attention to those02:02
tumbleweedonly the debian maintainer can ever really deal with them. sponsoring packages in ubuntu, you get used to ignoring things that really should be dealt with. I used to pay more attention to them when sponsoring than I do now02:05

Laibschanybody here using pbuilder together with custom hooks?  I'm trying to use the $BUILDRESULT variable in one of my hooks, but for some reason the variable is empty or not set to any value.  The script itself is called just fine.  /usr/lib/pbuilder/hooks/B10-test: http://paste.debian.net/87862/04:17
LaibschOutput of that script from a pbuilder run is just "BUILDRESULT is set to ", so the variable seems to be not set to any value.  I thought it was one of the "official" variables that I could use freely?04:18

didrocksLaney: can we move the discussion in ~1h about libgpod to #ubuntu-desktop? (need seb128 to ack the update or not)08:55
didrocksas it rdepends on both amarok and rhythmbox-plugins08:55
Laneyok then08:55
didrocksthanks :)08:56
Laneyin the meantime if you could get gudev and gio binary NEWed that will let beans build08:56

OwaisLhello friends. Yesterday, I uploaded my app to REVU. Got some errors and took care of them as RainCT told me to. Now only one warning remains that's Standards-Version.11:32
OwaisLRainCT told me to use Standards-Version: 3.9.1 and I did.11:32
OwaisLbut lintian is not happy about it. Can it be ignored or what11:33
OwaisLhttp://revu.ubuntuwire.com/revu1-incoming/gmailwatcher-1009061227/lintian11:33
OwaisLhttp://revu.ubuntuwire.com/p/gmailwatcher11:33
Rhonda\o/ cjwatson11:41
OwaisLOk. it's done. Waiting for review now. Anyone got time? http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/p/gmailwatcher11:46
nigelbOwaisL: lintian version on revu is a bit old, so don't worry about it11:48
nigelbif you can run a lintian check locally, that would be great11:48
nigelbI would highly encourage you to first push the package to debian and then sync to ubuntu11:49
OwaisLnigelb: OK. What should I put in the control file11:49
=== ogra_ is now known as ogra
OwaisLnigelb: It is ubuntu specific. Uses Messaging-Menu etc.11:50
nigelbOwaisL: Ah!11:50
nigelbIn that case you just need review and ack from motu :)11:50
nigelbmotu et al11:50
OwaisLnigelb: cool.11:50
OwaisLnigelb: BTW you are from Bangaloru. right?11:51
nigelbyep11:51
OwaisLnigelb: I'm from Srinagar/Pune.11:51
nigelbwhoo, cool11:51
OwaisLnigelb: from srinagar. studying in pune.11:51
OwaisL:)11:51
nigelb:)11:52
OwaisLso nigelb, should I put 3.8.4 or 3.9.1 in debian/control11:53
nigelbnewer would be preferred11:53
micahgOwaisL: you need to make sure the package is at whatever standards version you put in debian/control11:54
nigelbOwaisL: why aren't you using debhelper 7 awesomeness yet?11:54
OwaisLnigelb: I don't actually know any of this yet. haven't packaged anything. Actually the app is built using quickly. I just edited the files to make it good for REVU.11:55
nigelbAh.11:55
persiaWith newer enhancements in python integration with dh7, someone probably ought either port quickly to py-stdeb, or port python-distutils-extra to use dh711:56
nigelbAt least worthy of a bug in quickly if it isn't already there.11:56
OwaisLwill file it.11:57
persianigelb, It's not quickly, really.11:59
persiaOne needs to make sure that the underlying tools do the right thing.  Then either quickly gets it automatically, *OR* one can file a bug against quickly to switch tools.12:00
nigelbpersia: Oh.  I was under the mistaken assumption that quickly made the packaging.  Didn't realize that quickly just used the tools already available.12:01
nigelbOwaisL: If you want to try dh7, http://wiki.debian.org/Projects/DebSrc3.012:01
* nigelb hopes that was the right link12:01
persianigelb, Nope.  Uses python-distutils-extra right now.12:01
micahgnigelb: dh7 and source format 3 are 2 different things12:01
nigelbmicahg: aha, I was having that sinking feeling12:02
nigelbmicahg: dh7 is detailed on the new maintainer guide?12:03
micahgnigelb: idk offhand12:03
persiamaco recently had a great blog post including a quick guide to a dh7 package12:03
nigelbhttp://ubuntulinuxtipstricks.blogspot.com/2010/08/is-packaging-new-software-hard.html12:04
Laney"No, if you have a good upstream and you are just packaging an application"12:05
nigelbLaney: She answered that :)12:06
Laneysure12:06
nigelbVCS packaging though becomes marginally tougher12:06
* nigelb spent 1 day figuring out why I got build failure until somone told me bzr commit :D12:07
OwaisLSo can anyone explain to me how this REVU actually works?12:16
persiaOwaisL: Lots of people upload stuff, some people review it.  If a package gets reviewed by a couple MOTU, one of them usually uploads it.12:39
persiaWe generally trend towards a policy of peer-review, so that we like to have two developers approve a new package.12:40
bilalakhtarpersia: around?14:09

highvoltagetumbleweed: you've probably already seen this: http://xkcd.com/789/16:36
nigelbhighvoltage: hahahah16:45
geserLaibsch: I'd have to look at the pbuilder code to be sure, but my guess is that the hooks are run after the chroot (inside the pbuilder) while BUILDRESULT is only defined outside16:46
Laibschgeser: do you have an idea how I can cd to the $BUILDRESULT directory and run dpkg-scanpackages?  That is what I'm trying to do.16:47
Laibschwithout hardwiring the position of $BUILDRESULT into the script16:47
Laibsch(which is what I am currently doing)16:47
gesersorry no idea, only an ugly one: create your own wrapper around pbuilder(-dist) which regenerates the hook with the correct value and then calls the original pbuilder(-dist)16:56
