| ScottK | Yes. | 03:33 |
| ScottK | micahg: What's your problem? | 03:33 |
| * ScottK is going to guess it's that the version is hard coded in the script and so you have to edit it if you want a different one. | 03:34 | |

| ScottK | micahg: That's the one. If you go to the line number in the error message, you'll find the edit you need to make is pretty obvious I think. | 05:03 |
| micahg | ScottK: got it, I just need to pass --distribution maverick (or enable natty sources) | 05:09 |
| ScottK | I always just edit the file, but yes. | 05:09 |
| micahg | that's probably easier in case I forget | 05:10 |

| EvaLuaTe | hello | 10:56 |
| EvaLuaTe | does ubuntu also take packages from PPAs? | 10:57 |
| EvaLuaTe | I mean, do they include packages from PPA's in their own repository? I currently have a RFS open on debian for my package and it seems it'll still gonna take some time until it gets uploaded. I have made a PPA for ubuntu though, and I was curios if those get "scanned" by the ubuntu team automatically or if someone has to explicitely submit such a PPA to be included in the ubuntu repos... | 11:04 |
| Laney | EvaLuaTe: who did you submit the RFS to? A packaging team or debian-mentors? | 11:14 |
| === Zhenech_ is now known as Zhenech | ||
| EvaLuaTe | Laney, debian-mentors... | 11:14 |
| Laney | and to answer your question: nobody looks on PPAs — you have to manually request inclusion | 11:14 |
| Laney | You may find a dedicated team more responsive and amenable to your request. :) | 11:15 |
| Laney | http://wiki.debian.org/Teams#Packagingteams | 11:15 |
| EvaLuaTe | hmm | 11:16 |
| EvaLuaTe | well, since I already submited a RFS to the debian-mentors list, I guess I can't submit another one to also pkg-gnome for example, or would this be acceptable? | 11:19 |
| EvaLuaTe | also, how would I request inclusion of my PPA into ubuntu? | 11:19 |
| Laney | just cross-reference them, it should be fine | 11:19 |
| Laney | !revu | 11:19 |
| ubottu | REVU is a web-based tool to give people who have worked on Ubuntu packages a chance to "put their packages out there" for other people to look at and comment on in a structured manner. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Packages/REVU | 11:19 |
| EvaLuaTe | Laney, sorry but this is my first time "participating" in a mailing list. what exactly do you mean with cross-reference? Do you mean that when I contact the pkg-gnome team, I should tell them that there is also an open RFS for that pcakage on debian-mentors? | 11:21 |
| Laney | right. :) | 11:21 |
| Laney | you could go to #debian-gnome on OFTC | 11:22 |
| EvaLuaTe | oh, thank you very much for the help! :-) | 11:22 |
| EvaLuaTe | s/oh/ok/ | 11:23 |

| RainCT | Hey sebner | 15:14 |
| sebner | hola RainCT =) | 15:17 |
| RainCT | sebner: Now you can ask me to sponsor stuff for you again :P | 15:18 |
| mok0 | How can you prevent all kind of junk going into debian/patches/debian-changes-* ??? | 15:20 |
| RainCT | mok0: Other than fixing your clean rule? | 15:20 |
| mok0 | I am think specifically of gnu autotools stuff | 15:20 |
| mok0 | RainCT: yeah | 15:20 |
| sebner | RainCT: Did I miss something? DD already? =) | 15:21 |
| mok0 | I am having the problem because I maintain packaging in a bzr branch | 15:21 |
| mok0 | and of course the branch does not include autotools files | 15:22 |
| mok0 | .... but they are in the tar.gz file | 15:22 |
| mok0 | ... which is made by doing "make dist" | 15:22 |
| mok0 | I can't see any way out of this dilemma | 15:23 |
| bdrung | mok0: remove them on clean | 15:23 |
| mok0 | bdrung: I guess | 15:23 |
| bdrung | mok0: removed files shouldn't end up in the diff (or do they?) | 15:23 |
| mok0 | bdrung: but it's kludgy | 15:23 |
| bdrung | mok0: then add the files to your branch | 15:24 |
| mok0 | bdrung: because we never know when autotools change and decides to put new files in there | 15:24 |
| mok0 | bdrung: no, they don | 15:24 |
| mok0 | don | 15:24 |
| mok0 | don't belong in the branch | 15:24 |
| bdrung | mok0: you could use helper tools to update the autotools files | 15:24 |
| bdrung | mok0: maybe separate packaging branch? | 15:25 |
| mok0 | bdrung: I have that | 15:25 |
| mok0 | bdrung: but the auto generated files keep changing and I don't want them in the repo | 15:25 |
| mok0 | bdrung: I run autoreconfig at build time | 15:25 |
| mok0 | (in principle) | 15:26 |
| mok0 | I like best deleting them in the clean target | 15:26 |
| bdrung | mok0: then remove the autogenerated files on clean (maybe some helper tools may help) | 15:26 |
| mok0 | hrpmåh | 15:26 |
| RainCT | sebner: Yeah! | 15:26 |
| mok0 | bdrung: yes :-) | 15:27 |
| sebner | RainCT: congrats! | 15:27 |
| RainCT | Thanks :) | 15:27 |

| hakermania | hello all, may I ask something? In most of the programs in the Ubuntu Software Center there are pictures (an external picture and a picture shown when you click More Info and usually shows some functions) . What about these pictures? After I finish packaging should I do something to show them if REVU accept my package? | 15:50 |
| hakermania | [did I post here? (if yes, sorry I reconnected): hello all, may I ask something?

| ScottK | The screen shots are from screenshots.debian.net | 15:52 |
| ScottK | So get your package in Debian and then submit a screenshot there is, AFAIK, the answer. | 15:53 |
| hakermania | "get your package in Debian" ? My package is designed for ubuntu only! | 15:55 |
| geser | why is it Ubuntu only? | 15:59 |
| superm1 | it doesnt have to be in debian to get the screenshot submitted | 16:01 |
| superm1 | if it's in just ubuntu, it still works if there a screenshot at screenshots.debian.net (which allows uploads for packages not in debian) | 16:01 |
| hakermania | ok, so, let's say I upload a screenshot to screenshots.debian, how do I declare it in order to be used with my package submitted to REVU? | 16:13 |
| hakermania | my package hasn't yet been approved by REVU, so it isn't in the list of screenshots.debian (http://screenshots.debian.net/upload) should i wait my package to be accepted to be able to upload an image? | 16:18 |
| hakermania | I'll be back in 1.30 hours. You'let me know then.... :/ | 16:20 |
| === menesis1 is now known as menesis | ||
| hakermania | hello all, I have packaged my application for REVU, but I need to know how exactly the image of the package will be defined. I've heard about debian.screenshots.net but (of course) my package cannot be found in http://screenshots.debian.net/upload because REVU hasn't accepted it yet! What's the process I have to follow? | 18:17 |
| hyperair | the REVU process brings your package into Ubuntu, not into Debian | 18:20 |
| hakermania | yes I know but I was told 2 hours ago in this channel that I have to go to sreenshots.debian.net and have my screenshot there for ubuntu too. | 18:33 |
| hakermania | anybody to help out there? | 18:37 |
| hakermania | 208 people and nobody willing to help me out? --_--' | 18:46 |
| AnAnt | Hello, is binutils-gold part of the toolchain for Natty ? | 18:57 |
| micahg | AnAnt: I think some of the features are, idk if it is specifically | 18:58 |
| AnAnt | ok | 19:01 |
| hyperair | hakermania: sorry, it's exam period at the moment for me. you'll just have to wait a while, people don't stare at their irc clients all the time. | 19:01 |
| hakermania | I'm half an hour here :/ | 19:02 |
| micahg | hakermania: and not everyone is familiar with how screenshots.d.o works | 19:02 |
| hakermania | one in 207 in the appropriate channel should be :/ | 19:03 |
| AnAnt | ? | 19:03 |
| micahg | hakermania: what makes this channel appropriate for such a question? | 19:04 |
| hakermania | A lot of people here had their programs uploaded to REVU and know the answer | 19:04 |
| micahg | hakermania: REVU has nothing to do with screenshots.d.o | 19:04 |
| Nafallo | hakermania: what are you trying to achieve? | 19:05 |
| AnAnt | maybe guys #debian-mentors @ OFTC can help ? | 19:05 |
| Nafallo | (the full 9 yards plan) | 19:05 |
| hakermania | What I am trying to do is to know how programs in Ubuntu Software Center have their pics declared and where (has nothing to do with packaging) | 19:06 |
| AnAnt | hakermania: I thought you want to upload some screenshots | 19:07 |
| hakermania | Yes, in debian.screenshots.net as i was told a couple of hours ago. | 19:07 |
| Nafallo | hakermania: so first of, it's wouldn't be about programs in REVU, but in Ubuntu itself. second of, I would say #ubuntu-desktop is better for Ubuntu Software Center than this channel. | 19:07 |
| hakermania | --_--' I hate being sent from channel to channel. Anyway, ty | 19:08 |
| AnAnt | hakermania: I never tried to upload a screenshot, did you try there ? | 19:08 |
| hakermania | AnAnt: I can't upload a screenshot there. The program hasn't yet be accepted and debian.screenshots.net lists only the programs that have been accepted. Anyway, I'm changing channel | 19:09 |
| Nafallo | hakermania: well, I believe the question is out of scope for this channel, and being sent to another channel that might be able to give you an answer shouldn't be that far-fetched :-) | 19:09 |
| hakermania | ok | 19:09 |
| hakermania | bb | 19:09 |
| AnAnt | hakermania: I am using elinks to browse http://screenshots.debian.net/upload, I don't see a dropdown list | 19:09 |
| hakermania | AnAnt: try to write out a package-name in the Package name: field that doesn't exist plz | 19:10 |
| hakermania | like: sdfasdfas | 19:10 |
| hakermania | bb | 19:12 |
| AnAnt | ah, so you'll have to wait till it is accepted in Ubuntu | 19:13 |
| AnAnt | I don't understand what he wants to achieve | 19:14 |
| * micahg thinks he wants SC images from a package in a PPA | 19:15 | |
| Nafallo | not PPA, REVU from what I understand. | 19:15 |
| AnAnt | why the rush ? | 19:15 |
| Nafallo | I believe the answer is that the package has to land in Debian first. | 19:16 |
| Nafallo | but I don't know that for certain. | 19:16 |
| AnAnt | Nafallo: I don't think so, I just tried for a package that's in Ubuntu only, and the upload got accepted | 19:16 |
| AnAnt | Nafallo: but still awaiting review though | 19:16 |
| Nafallo | ah. so at least be in a proper archive somewhere then :-) | 19:16 |
| AnAnt | yup | 19:17 |
| iulian | hyperair: Sure mate. I'm going to upload it either tonight or tomorrow morning. | 20:29 |
| maxb | How is pycentral's /var/lib/pycentral/<package>.pkgremove file supposed to be used? | 20:32 |
| iulian | hyperair: I don't know why I'm not getting bug mail. | 20:33 |
| maxb | As far as I can see, the old package's prerm has run before there's anything a new version of the package could do to create a signal file | 20:33 |
| iulian | Oh yea. I'm co-maintaining it. | 20:33 |
| iulian | Laney_: Not sure about it as I'm not using pidgin-fb myself. I'm not even on facebook so I cannot say much. Take a look at http://code.google.com/p/pidgin-facebookchat/wiki/XMPPDifferences. | 20:47 |
| hyperair | iulian: because you're not the Maintainer. | 21:00 |
| hyperair | iulian: you'll need to subscribe at packages.qa.debian.org/pidgin-facebookchat | 21:00 |
| iulian | hyperair: <iulian> Oh yea. I'm co-maintaining it. | 21:01 |
| hyperair | Laney_: i use pidgin-fbchat because my university's panel of monkeys somehow managed to have a 99% hit rate on cutting unencrypted XMPP connections short halfway. | 21:02 |
| hyperair | Laney_: at least when pidgin attempts it. it succeeds with empathy, but empathy doesn't quite meet my expectations yet, so i don't use it | 21:02 |
| hyperair | iulian: ah right. | 21:02 |
| hyperair | iulian: sorry, i'm sleepy and the red stuff really stands out so that's all i saw. =p | 21:02 |
| iulian | hyperair: It's alright. I'm gonna upload it in a couple of minutes. Would you like to co-maintain it as well? | 21:04 |
| iulian | hyperair: Uploaded. Thanks for bringing it up. | 21:28 |
| hyperair | thanks for uploading =) | 21:28 |
