mrbrocolii'm making a package that needs to install some python modules, how do i make setup.py install the modules in the right place? the default puts in /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages, which seems to be ignored in ubuntu.. i found something about --install-layout=deb in google, but it puts stuff in dist-packages, which sound like soemthing reserved to the distro00:36
mrbrocolihow do i make stuff install in /usr/local/lib/python2.6/site-packages without hardcoding that?00:36

fargiolashi, I'm working on a customization of ubuntu lucid, a persistent live usb setup, I'd like to customize the bootmanager but I'm having some difficulty understanding the whole thing, it seems to use gfxboot but there are lots of apparently unused files, is there a design document anywhere about it?09:35

Chaos2358is this a support channel/15:44

vish!support | Chaos235815:46
ubottuChaos2358: The official ubuntu support channel is #ubuntu. Please be aware that this channel is for development only.15:46
Chaos2358vish the official support channel #ubuntu has no idea whats causeing my issue or how to remedy and reffered me to the devs15:47
vishChaos2358: you can also ask in askubuntu.com or in the ubuntu forums15:48
Hobbseeprobably no devs around at the moment15:49
Hobbseegiven the weekend and all15:50
Chaos2358vish do you really think i would be in here talking to the swollen headed pompous assclowns which reside if i had not already followed those avenues to no end??15:52
HobbseeChaos2358: and you've just ensured that absolutely no one will help you.  Goodbye.15:53
ikoniaChaos2358: stop it now15:55
ikoniaChaos2358: you know the rules, that attitude will get you banned15:55
Chaos2358why must people always suggest a different avenue for help instead of perhaps realizing thpse avenues have led me here?15:57
ikoniaChaos2358: who told you to come here15:57
HobbseeChaos2358: because of the number of people who come in here, don't read the topic, and don't do the right thing15:57
Chaos2358three different people in ubuntu over the last week have said it was a problem for the devs as it could not be sorted by myself or with their help15:58
ikoniaChaos2358: ok - a problem for the devs15:58
ikoniaChaos2358: have you logged the bug15:58
Chaos2358no15:59
ikoniaChaos2358: ok thats point one (I'm sure we have been through this )15:59
Chaos2358i come to the devs chanel15:59
ikoniaChaos2358: this isn't a support channel15:59
ikoniaChaos2358: you log a bug, it gets allocated and progressed15:59
ikoniaChaos2358: thats the process, this isn't a support channel15:59
Chaos2358ok ok15:59
ikoniaChaos2358: and we've spoke before, your crappy attitude to people won't get you help, so if you are going to interact with people, it needs to stop16:00
ikoniaChaos2358: that said, if you go through the process, we'll help you work it through to resolution16:00
Chaos2358ok16:01
ikoniaChaos2358: consider this your only warning (as we've spoke before) if I see this attitude from you again, you'll get banned, no discussion, understand ?16:01
Chaos2358yep clean and clear16:01
ikoniaok, so lets leave this channel (/part) and go to support and i'll help you log a bug and progress it16:01
Chaos2358go to support? you mean #ubuntu?16:02
ikoniayes16:02
ikoniasorry, should have been clear16:02

mterryRoAkSoAx, yo17:51
RoAkSoAxmterry: howdy!! should I just add the "-V" to binary-common dh_makeshlibs and upload a new revision?17:52
RoAkSoAx(for cluster-glue that is)17:52
mterryRoAkSoAx, um, I don't think that would work.  I think each library needs its own -V argument.18:05
mterryRoAkSoAx, not sure how that would look off the top of my head without using cdbs18:05
mterryRoAkSoAx, or you could add symbols files, those are real nice18:05
RoAkSoAxmterry: uhmm i've been taking a look to other packages and they have the dh_makeshlibs -a -V and dh_makeshlibs -i -V in binary-arc and binary-indep respectively, so I'm guessing that in this case, adding the -V in binary-common should do the trick?18:09
mterryRoAkSoAx, but I believe that gets trickier when dealing with multiple libraries, right?  Like, the -V argument includes the library name?18:10
RoAkSoAxmterry: no I don't think so. For example, redhat-cluster has no symbol files and only have the dh_makeshlibs -a -V and dh_makeshlibs -i -V18:13
mterryRoAkSoAx, seems OK then, but we're starting to get beyond my depth.  Make it look like that, and I'll have another MIR guy with more library expertise confirm18:15
RoAkSoAxmterry: awesome!! Thanks ;)18:16

ebroderAnybody know if there's a git repo somewhere with the Ubuntu revisions of the -intel driver? Vcs-Git refers to a repo at git.debian.org, which only appears to have Debian tags23:05
crimsunebroder: git?  Hmm, don't think so, though there's bzr at https://code.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel.  They're imported under ~ubuntu-branches23:19
ebrodercrimsun: I'm trying to bisect a regression, and the closest Debian version on the "good" end seems to segfault for me while Ubuntu's doesn't23:20
penguin42does someone understand when it's reasonable to use access_ok() in the kernel? What's the point if copy_from_user might still fail?23:22
ebrodercrimsun: I'll look at the bzr branch, though. If there's enough merge metadata there that I can bisect upstream with that...23:22
