hggdhari-tczew: done, new debdiffs uploaded. I hope this time I got it right :-)00:00
ari-tczewhggdh: I'll start in a couple of minutes.00:03
micahgari-tczew: since when can you upload security stuff?00:04
ari-tczewmicahg: I can't upload this one. I can ACK as MOTU SWAT.00:05
micahgari-tczew: ok00:05
ari-tczewhggdh: did you test is version 0.5.4 affected by this bug?00:24
ari-tczewhggdh: what do you think about use bazaar to send patches?00:29
micahgari-tczew: one step at a time ;)00:29
ari-tczewmicahg: hmmm?00:30
micahgari-tczew: bzr's a lot for new contributors00:30
ari-tczewmicahg: 4 commands.00:31
ari-tczewbzr push lp:foo/bar00:31
ari-tczewpatch -p1 < ../*debdiff00:31
ari-tczewbzr commit --fixes lp:foo00:31
ari-tczewbzr push (at start branch, mistake)00:32
micahgari-tczew: debdiff is a lot simpler00:32
ari-tczewmicahg: yes but I have one last suggestion :P and if he will work again, I suggest to send patches via bzr00:33
micahgari-tczew: it's actually not possible in this case00:33
micahgno -security branches00:33
ari-tczewmicahg: it doesn't matter.00:33
micahgari-tczew: it does00:33
ari-tczewmicahg: no. sponsor will grab debdiff from requested bzr branch merge.00:34
micahgari-tczew: you can't do a merge if the branch doesn't exist, it's a bug00:35
micahgand UDD AFAIK isn't used for security sponsoring00:35
ari-tczewmicahg: yes, you're right, but contributor can request bzr merge on normal branch. LP will generate diff (preview) correct.00:36
micahgari-tczew: it's a waste of time00:36
ari-tczewmicahg: waste of time was today's discussion00:37
micahgari-tczew: no, it's faster to just make a debdiff vs using bzr00:37
micahgapt-get source foo is much faster than bzr branch lp:ubuntu/foo00:38
ari-tczewmicahg: I prefer to use pull-lp-source00:39
micahgari-tczew: same difference, much faster than bzr branch00:39
hggdhari-tczew: I did not test 0.5.4 (natty)00:45
hggdhari-tczew: I just found what is possibly the fix in GIT -- http://repo.or.cz/w/ncmpcpp.git/commit/d1b82557d266795621244c62644d4d0604cf545300:48
ari-tczewhggdh: couldn't you grab this patch in the whole?00:58
ari-tczewhggdh: if this patch also fixes issue, we should upload it from git upstream.01:06
hggdhari-tczew: I will look at the dependencies01:16
ari-tczewhggdh: about your debdiffs: I would like to use Author tag instead From because you created this patch.01:16
hggdhari-tczew: no prob, easy edit, will upload corrected in a few01:17
ari-tczewhggdh: My propose: please hang on while you will test this git's patch.01:17
hggdhroj01:17
ari-tczewhggdh: roj?01:21
hggdhari-tczew: shorthand for 'roger', meaning 'I understand'01:22
ari-tczewhggdh: ok, so I'm unsubscribing ubuntu-sponsors till your feedback about git's patch.01:23
ari-tczewThank you for your contribution.01:23

dholbachari-tczew, thanks12:05
ikoniadholbach: sorry was AFK for a moment12:07
ikoniadholbach: just because it's not an ubuntu distro package, it's a package for a derivative, just wondered why it was in the ubuntu repos ?12:08
dholbachikonia, it's what a lot of derivatives do12:08
ikoniaI'm sure, I just picked that one as an example12:08
dholbachI think it makes a lot of sense for derivatives to not host their own infrastructure, but get their stuff into Ubuntu directly12:09
dholbachit's the easiest way of doing it12:09
dholbachand if Ubuntu users, want to try it out they mostly just install their derivative-metapackage12:09
ikoniathe image based packages such as the splash images don't seem a big deal what about packages that may create/cause conflict ?12:09
ikoniahow is that managed12:09
dholbachikonia, they set proper Conflicts/Replaces fields in the package metadata12:09
ikoniaso Ubuntu as a project is happy hosting derivative packages in Universe as a position12:10

ari-tczewcjwatson: oh my gosh :p package is synced already, MoM shouldn't handle this one14:58
cjwatsonit's trying to generate a diff from that version to the next version14:59
cjwatsonlet me see what can sanely be done about that14:59
cjwatson(this isn't for merges.ubuntu.com, but for patches.ubuntu.com, which is populated by the same set of cron jobs)14:59
ari-tczewcjwatson: could script skip this one?15:03
cjwatsonit could, but there would be no way to distinguish between out of disk space (=> need to wait until we have some) and broken package (=> skip)15:04
cjwatsonso I think I would prefer to just kill this one with fire instead15:04
ari-tczewcjwatson: huh, I hope that Canonical will buy some HDDs :)15:05
cjwatsonsure, but it's vital that merge-o-matic doesn't just carry on regardless15:06
cjwatsonkilled; as far as MoM is concerned, that version now never existed15:06
ari-tczewcjwatson: another question. FTBFS page could check whether package is DEPWAIT. is possible to create a function, which LP/builders will detect why is FTBFS? e.g. Reason: missed linking libs => detect by "could not read symbols: Invalid operation"15:09
cjwatsonno idea, I'm afraid - the FTBFS page has nothing to do with me15:10
cjwatsonand I don't generally work on LP15:10
micahgari-tczew: that sounds prone to error15:11
cjwatsonin general?  it sounds possible to create some heuristics, although tedious.  I suspect that it would be better to try that kind of feature outside Launchpad15:11
cjwatsonsince it would be easier to evolve the code that way15:12
ari-tczewThis feature can bring easier way to sort kind of FTBFS.15:13
geserari-tczew: for that the script would need to fetch *every* build log from LP and inspect it (and the script takes already long enough to run just to fetch the build status)15:13
micahgit would be nice if DEPWAIT at it's supposed to work, just worked( I noticed at the end of maverick it worked spradically, haven't checked lately)15:14
gesermicahg: known problem, I'm waiting on lamont to review a fix for it (and deploy it)15:15

micahgSpamapS: the uploader cannot create the branch and the lucid branch is frozen19:43
SpamapSmicahg: well the upload creates it19:43
micahgSpamapS: right, but the hassle of a merge proposal isn't worth it since all the changes will be lost19:44

ari-tczewdunno. let's ask cjwatson22:33
paultagI mean, I'd guess so, there must be someone like the FTP master for Ubuntu22:34
chrisccoulsonit means exactly what it says - that the package that was uploaded contains new binary packages which need approval before they enter the archive22:34
ari-tczewchrisccoulson: is tracker able to merge? I remember, that some packages can't be merged from Debian. Only packaging from scratch.22:37
geserari-tczew: the flow of a new source package is: source NEW -> build -> binary NEW -> published22:37
chrisccoulsonari-tczew, no idea, i've not looked at the changes22:37
geserif new binary packages get introduced the only need the second part: binary NEW -> published22:37
ari-tczewgeser: hmm. it was a big merge. bump from upstream 4 to 5.22:38
chrisccoulson"* Add libdb5.0-{sql,stl}{,-dev} packages" is why it is in NEW22:39

geserari-tczew: it's nothing about big or small change; libdb5.0* wasn't seen before so the archive admins have to take a "look" and put them into the right component (usually the same as the source)22:40
