[00:47] <Jarvis> anyone around? I'm trying to figure out what else needs to be done to get a bug patched in lucid, before it drives me and everyone else crazy :(
[00:48] <Jarvis> i've attached a debdiff to it, subscribed SRU , Sponsors , even attached the patch copied from debian, and its still sitting there :(
[00:49] <Jarvis> Incidentally the bug has been filed since before Lucid was released (16th March :( )
[01:05] <jdong> Jarvis: what bug number is this?
[01:05] <jdong> in general, the only thing that needs to be done is jdong needs to finish his latest homework/project...
[01:06] <jdong> but since Lucid's release is a ridiculously long amount of time; that probably means I didn't notice the bug report.
[01:07] <Jarvis> Bug #539814
[01:07] <Jarvis> thats the tar one anyways
[01:07] <Jarvis> theres also a similar bug in coreutils :)(
[01:07] <Jarvis> * :(
[01:09] <jdong> Jarvis: ok, while we're waiting, you should upload a revised debdiff using "-2ubuntu0.1" as the version number
[01:09] <jdong> but that's a minor nitpick.
[01:09] <Jarvis> kk i'll do that shortly
[01:09] <jdong> other than that, there's nothing that you did wrong
[01:09] <jdong> unfortunately, tar is in main, and there's far fewer core-devs than universe-uploading devs
[01:10] <jdong> and also, tar is really important, which probably scares off most people from touching it ;-)
[01:10] <Jarvis> true
[01:10] <Jarvis> i should see if theres a related report for coreutils  as well, as thats the same issue
[01:10] <Jarvis> if not i'll file one
[01:10] <jdong> my best advice is to try to find a core developer in #ubuntu-devel to feel comfortable enough to sponsor the patch for you
[01:10] <Jarvis> kk
[01:10] <Jarvis> cheers jdong
[01:11] <jdong> I don't have core uploading powers, otherwise I'd feel bad and help you right now ;-)
[01:11] <Jarvis> ;-)
[01:11] <jdong> but once it's uploaded to the queue, I'd be happy to look over and approve it
[01:11] <Jarvis> kk , cheers :)
[10:42] <bilalakhtar> tumbleweed: waiting for your endorsement! very little time left!
[10:44] <tumbleweed> bilalakhtar: busy doing it right now. I got sidetracked by writing a sponsorship-listing tool https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~stefanor/ubuntu-dev-tools/sponsor-list
[10:45] <bilalakhtar> tumbleweed: np :)
[10:45] <bilalakhtar> but little time left, only 3 days!
[11:25] <geser> bilalakhtar: tumbleweed can also give live endorsements during the meeting
[11:26] <bilalakhtar> geser: Thanks for the idea, well, he can only do so if he's free at that time :_
[11:26] <bilalakhtar> geser: I would have asked you for an endorsement but you have sponsored only 1 merge
[11:27] <bilalakhtar> bdrung just endorsed, but he pointed out lintian errors with my very first package
[13:16] <vish> could someone open the lucid task for Bug 587853 ?
[13:19] <ari-tczew> how can I check whether my get-orig-source is correct?
[13:19] <ari-tczew> dch ? which options?
[13:20] <tumbleweed> by running it?
[13:21] <bilalakhtar> ari-tczew: dh get-orig-source
[13:21] <bilalakhtar> though I am not sure
[13:21] <tumbleweed> eh?
[13:21] <tumbleweed> you mean debian/rules get-orig-source
[13:21] <ari-tczew> tumbleweed: yes
[13:21] <bilalakhtar> oops, yes
[13:21] <bilalakhtar> debian/rules get-orig-source
[13:22] <bilalakhtar> vish: Who all have the privileges to open nominations?
[13:23] <tumbleweed> bilalakhtar: MOTUs can for universe/multiverse packages. He nedes a core-dev
[13:23]  * vish tickles a core-dev :D
[13:23] <bilalakhtar> vish: you're better off asking it in #ubuntu-devel
[13:24] <vish> tumbleweed: the problem was the wiki wasnt clear regarding who accepts the task, else didrocks would have opened it himself..
[13:25] <vish> SRU is confusing.. probably should try to get bugs fixed before release itself ;p
[13:26] <tumbleweed> vish: I think they should be opened whenever it looks like an SRU is going to be necessary or just that the bug is specific to a released version
[13:30] <vish> yeah, I'v sometimes noticed seb128 and pitti just opening the task when they get the chance.. but the wiki could be more clear about that
[13:31] <tumbleweed> unfortunatly people misunderstand the "nominate" button and try to use it to get attention to their bugs
[13:33] <vish> ..they think its adding a +1 ;)
[13:33]  * tumbleweed is pretty sure I've done it
[13:36] <didrocks> tumbleweed: vish: hey guys, about which bugs are you talking about?
[13:37] <tumbleweed> 14:16 < vish> could someone open the lucid task for Bug 587853 ?
[13:37] <vish> didrocks: oops! you were spying here! :(
[13:37] <vish> ;p
[13:37] <didrocks> vish: everytime :-)
[13:37] <didrocks> oh that ones
[13:38] <didrocks> vish: pitti will get it in -proposed next week (he was on holiday this weekà
[13:38] <didrocks> I'll accept the lucid task, as I'm really not sure who should accept
[13:38] <didrocks> I opened them for my SRU, so I think it's ok
[13:38] <didrocks> but yeah, the process isn't very clear on what to do
[13:38] <vish> didrocks: cool, thanks. yeah.. its not clear on the wiki :)
[13:38] <ari-tczew> didrocks: I ascertained to make get-orig-source
[13:38]  * tumbleweed doesn't think it matters too much who does it
[13:39] <didrocks> ari-tczew: great! should make the repacking more easy
[13:40] <didrocks> vish: can you ping pitti (and me next Monday (maybe in the afternoon, once he has backlogged a little bit) so that he can have a look at it?
[13:40] <didrocks> there is another one IIRC
[13:40] <didrocks> (that I sponsored)
[13:41] <vish> didrocks: sure, will do .. :)
[13:41] <didrocks> thanks vish :)
[13:41] <vish> np..
[13:44] <ari-tczew> is this page wrote correct? all languages in one page? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/Examples/ChangingTheOrigTarball
[14:18]  * ari-tczew loves reviewing source through bazaar! <3
[17:26] <lfaraone> jdstrand: re bug 507579, the FFe was approved in bug 663401. I was not aware of the needs-packaging bug.
[17:32] <ari-tczew> tumbleweed: clementine is finished and available on bazaar. soon will be uploaded @REVU.
[17:45] <iulian> lfaraone: Could you please close that bug then?
[17:56] <lfaraone> iulian: marked as a duplicate
[17:59] <lfaraone> (of bug 633401, that is)
[18:00] <lfaraone> should 633401 have not been marked fix released when it was synced? (instead being as such when it was approved from new)
[18:06] <iulian> lfaraone: If the package is in the archive now then the bug should be marked as fix released.
[18:06] <lfaraone> iulian: well, it's in NEW (
[18:15] <iulian> lfaraone: Hm, I've no idea.  Maybe he's waiting for ScottK to accept it.
[18:17] <lfaraone> iulian: scott said that he'd ack it as long as somebody else handled it in NEW.
[18:18] <iulian> lfaraone: Ah-ha, then find an archive admin to review it.
[18:25] <lfaraone> Riddell: ^^
[18:36] <ari-tczew> Rhonda: clementine is finished. issues fixed, ready for ACK :)
[19:53] <hrw|gone> can someone told me why upload of armel-toolchain-base 1.46 failed? Launchpad log says "duplicate ancestry"
[19:56] <hrw|gone> bb on monday
[20:32] <ScottK> lfaraone: Before I accept it, can you fix jdstand's comment about the postinst?
[22:41] <Riddell> lfaraone: you pinged?
[22:43] <lfaraone> Riddell: yeah, sorry to bother. It was re turtleart in NEW, but ScottK'd like me to fix a bug first before he accepts it.
[22:43] <Riddell> he's harsh like that :)
[22:45] <lfaraone> ScottK: would it be okay to upload the fix to debian and rereq the sync, then? or just upload directly to Ubuntu?
[23:20] <ScottK> lfaraone: Either way.
