ebroderAnybody want to provide a second opinion on bug #656503? I'm inclined to take the whole patch - the only thing that seems remotely superfluous is the removal of the trailing newlines, but I don't want to decide to do that unilaterally03:46
ubottuLaunchpad bug 656503 in utouch-geis (Ubuntu) "event dispatch can hang under some circumstances" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/65650303:46
ebroder(http://launchpadlibrarian.net/59171925/utouch-geis.debdiff is the patch)03:46
ebroderActually, now that I'm looking at it, I'm confused how that change to the while loop is..actually a change03:49
RAOFIt looks like it calls xcb_poll_for_event once per loop rather than once, but that's just from looking at the patch; context may well change that.03:50
ebroderThere's another call to xcb_poll_for_event at the bottom of the loop03:50
ebroder(The "@@ -763,15 +763,13 @@" hunk)03:51
RAOFAh, yeah.  There it is.03:52
RAOFOh.03:52
RAOFIf event->response_type != GenericEvent you've got an infinite loop.03:53
RAOFThat change really is a change.03:53
ebroderOh, I see03:53
RAOFIs the changing to explicit C linkage needed?03:54
RAOFI mean, the minimal patch is quite a lot smaller than that debdiff (which needs the changelog cleaning up, of course)03:54
ebroderI was on the fence about the C linkage. I feel like it's something I would be willing to fix in an SRU if someone asked for it - C vs. C++ linkage is well-understood, and it won't affect any runtimes03:55
ebroder(And anything in the archive that isn't broken currently has the extern "C" around the include, so it shouldn't affect rebuilding)03:56
ebroderBut if somebody else tells me they don't think it's appropriate, I've got no poblems with that03:57
ebroder*problems, obviously03:58
RAOFHeh.03:58
RAOFI think those changes are sane, but I'm not a member of ubuntu-sru :)04:01
ebroderThat's good enough for me. Lord knows I've SRU'd worse before, and we are talking about universe :-P04:02
ebroderActually, thinking about it more, I would sponsor the C++ change if there was a bug, but I don't really want to without a bug04:07

bcurtiswxhttp://imagebin.ca/view/2ogKiw.html is a pic of a patch thats failing.. the line of the start of the patch matches the code and i can't see where the patch would go wrong.  any suggestions ?15:10

geserbcurtiswx: white-space? try "patch -l --dry-run" and your usual options15:18
bcurtiswxi've been using quilt geser, will that do the same thing?15:20
geserIIRC quilt doesn't use -l (and the --dry-run is only for testing)15:22
geserbut if you know if it's the white-space or not, you can either refresh the whole patch or edit the patch and fixing the whitespace (depending on what is easier)15:23
bcurtiswxgeser, OK thx15:25
geseras you seem to use vim, you can also use "set list listchars=tab:>-,trail:.,extends:>,precedes:<,nbsp:%" to make white-space visible15:28
bcurtiswxgeser, will it highlight the whitespace ?15:33
bcurtiswxah i c15:34

achiangbcurtiswx: the actual error message from patch would be helpful too. :)16:07
bcurtiswxachiang, i just got that the hunk failed.  no specific error message16:11
achiangbcurtiswx: well, patch(1) takes a --verbose argument... why not try with that and pastebin the entire operation?16:12
bcurtiswxachiang, OK it'll be a bit. thx for the help so far :)16:13
