yao_ziyuan | i think the no.1 problem in gnome is probably the desktop icon text color. it's white and just doesn't work with light wallpapers. i found a perfect solution. | 03:52 |
yao_ziyuan | put a gtkrc-2.0 file in your home dir with this content: http://fpaste.org/jpvP/ . this will set your desktop icon text color to black, and put a 50%-translucent round-cornered box around the text. | 03:52 |
yao_ziyuan | the purpose is that whether your wallpaper is dark or light, desktop icon text will always be highly contrasted. i recommend it be a default configuration for ubuntu. | 03:53 |

\sh | hmmm...why is dh_autotools-dev_{restoreconfig,updateconfig} in autotools-dev and not in debhelper ? even if the man page says, that it belongs to debhelper 7? | 09:01 |
hyperair | wait, there's a dh_autotools-dev? | 09:09 |
hyperair | what happened to dh_autoreconf? | 09:09 |
\sh | hyperair: since maverick it seems... | 09:11 |
hyperair | what | 09:12 |
dapal | \sh, hyperair: they're different | 09:12 |
hyperair | dapal: eh? | 09:12 |
dapal | dh_autoreconf runs "autoreconf -f -i" | 09:12 |
hyperair | ah yes | 09:12 |
hyperair | config.guess/sub | 09:12 |
dapal | thus changes Makefile.in's, for example | 09:12 |
dapal | exactly | 09:12 |
dapal | dh_autotools-dev_* only changes config.{guess,sub} | 09:12 |
dapal | and that's the reason why it's in autotools-dev: they need the config.guess/sub copies | 09:13 |
dapal | i.e. /usr/share/misc/config.sub and /usr/share/misc/config.guess | 09:13 |
hyperair | makes sense. | 09:13 |
hyperair | what 's config.sub and config.guess for again? | 09:13 |
dapal | they're for architecture-specific things, AFAIR | 09:14 |
dapal | but please don't ask more, I hate autofools :-p | 09:14 |
dapal | (just because I don't know much) | 09:14 |
hyperair | heheh | 09:14 |
\sh | dapal: but wouldn't it make more sense, to include the debhelper scripts into debhelper itself and not in packages which are not related to debhelper actually? | 09:15 |
hyperair | \sh: it's autofools specific | 09:15 |
hyperair | just like how dh_quilt* is in quilt. | 09:15 |
dapal | \sh: and then make debhelper depend on autotools-dev? Nasty. :) | 09:15 |
dapal | hyperair: (or dh_bash-completion is in bash-completion, or [..]) | 09:16 |
hyperair | yeah | 09:16 |
dapal | anyway, who uses dh_quilt these days? 3.0 (quilt) rocks \o/ | 09:16 |
\sh | hmm...I see it a bit different...someone who wants to change config.{sub,guess} will always include autotools-dev, the dh_autotools-dev_* stuff is a wrapper to some manual shell magic imho (i didn't take a deeper look at those scripts), so for me it belongs more into debhelper then in another package..anyways...it's probelmatic now to build a source package on lucid with those commands inside debian/rules... | 09:19 |
hyperair | dapal: i use it when i need to do things before patching. | 09:20 |
hyperair | dapal: on older ubuntus | 09:20 |
dapal | ah, yes. :) | 09:20 |
hyperair | stuff like ltmain.sh | 09:20 |
hyperair | speaking of which, i hear that libtool's been fixed and we can drop the patch now | 09:20 |
hyperair | is that true? | 09:20 |
hyperair | and since when? | 09:20 |
dapal | oh, well | 09:20 |
dapal | I've been patching ltmain.sh since ages | 09:21 |
hyperair | yeah same here | 09:21 |
hyperair | rather, ever since i inherited banshee, i've been patching ltmain | 09:21 |
dapal | is libtool being fixed just a rumour? :-p | 09:21 |
hyperair | lol, maybe. =p | 09:21 |
DktrKranz | mvo: I wonder if you had the time to look at a synaptic merge proposal I did some time ago (https://code.launchpad.net/~dktrkranz/synaptic/manual/+merge/42026) | 09:23 |

mdz | pitti: yes, I set the contact email address for the team to the mailing list | 10:33 |
pitti | mdz: seems TB is somehow involved in all these merge proposals then | 10:34 |
mdz | pitti: should I undo that change? | 10:35 |
mdz | while we track down why? | 10:35 |
pitti | mdz: it's not hard to delete them from the moderation queue, but I wonder why they are landing there in the first place | 10:36 |
pitti | seems tech-board is a default reviewer for ubuntu branches or so? | 10:36 |
pitti | mdz: you did that because someone used "contact user" for the xubuntu mail, right? | 10:36 |
mdz | pitti: probably we are a member of some other team which is | 10:37 |
pitti | mdz: I guess it just landed in a different folder for me then, thus I didn't see the original email where I saw sabdfl's reply | 10:37 |
mdz | pitti: I'm actually subscribed to merge proposals for Ubuntu anyway, so I didn't notice | 10:37 |
didrocks | pitti: btw, I didn't touch the language-selector and gdm changes for $LANGUAGE. I think the reporter subscribed you, the diff is quite large and you know the issue/functionnality :) | 10:41 |

hron84 | Hi! I would like to know where finds the GDM its configuration file. | 10:49 |

hron84 | ahh | 10:50 |
hron84 | I would like tell to it to don´t start Xorg as first server, but Xvnc | 10:50 |
hron84 | i have a config file, i know what i need to do, but gdm doesn´t accepts the config file from standard places. | 10:51 |
pitti | erm, Xvnc isn't an X server | 10:51 |
hron84 | Ok. | 10:51 |
hron84 | I know | 10:51 |
hron84 | pitti: i know. I´mn´t a newbie of linux or Ubuntu, just i use GDM and Xvnc very rarely on Ubuntu, i usually config it on Debian. | 10:54 |
pitti | hron84: you might be able to set it in /etc/gdm/custom.conf, but I'm not sure whether the X server to use is configurable | 10:56 |
hron84 | pitti: i tried it, but GDM doesn´t accepts the config from here. | 10:57 |

ubottu | Launchpad bug 647045 in apt (Ubuntu Natty) "apt-cache rdepends returns cryptic error message" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/647045 | 14:24 |
dnivra | Thanks ScottK. | 14:25 |
ScottK | You're welcome. | 14:25 |
juliank | dnivra: In which file is the message? | 14:33 |
dnivra | juliank, apt-pkg/contrib/cmndline.cc | 14:34 |
juliank | dnivra: Then, did you set LD_LIBRARY_PATH? And really, that | 14:36 |
dnivra | juliank, it should point to? currently it points to /usr/local/lib. | 14:37 |
juliank | dnivra: If you are running ./build/bin/apt-get you must also set LD_LIBRARY_PATH=./build/bin, otherwise it loads the old library | 14:37 |
dnivra | which is the already existent unmodified library! well i didn't know that. thanks juliank! | 14:38 |
dnivra | is it enough if I append './build/bin' to LD_LIBRARY_PATH or should it be the only value? | 14:38 |
dnivra | juliank, thanks a lot! I've been breaking my head over this for whole of today-nearly 12 hours now. | 14:39 |
juliank | dnivra: That's your thing. But the bug has to be fixed in cmdline/apt-cache.cc anyway, not in cmndline.cc | 14:40 |
dnivra | juliank, i think the function 'DispatchArg' in cmdline.cc is what is called from apt-cache.cc, which prints the dependencies. I check it with gdb-it's immediately after the function call 'CmdL.DispatchArg(CmdB)' in line 1865 of apt-cache.cc that the dependencies are printed. but I'm not too sure about that. | 14:42 |
juliank | dnivra: The bug is around line 590 of cmdline/apt-cache.cc | 14:43 |
juliank | it returns false without creating an error first | 14:43 |
dnivra | juliank, gotta check it out then. i'm still learning how apt works. and all I know for sure is that DumpErrors prints out the errors :D. | 14:47 |
juliank | dnivra: I already pushed a fix into the debian-sid repository (mvo: fix for 647045 is in debian-sid) | 14:50 |
dnivra | juliank, oh! okay then. time to find another bug. can i see the fix you made-link? | 14:51 |
mvo | juliank: thanks | 14:51 |
juliank | dnivra: The fix can be seen at http://bzr.debian.org/scm/loggerhead/apt/debian-sid/revision/2054 | 14:52 |
dnivra | it fixes both rdepends and depends? cos I had the same problem with depends too. just asking. | 14:52 |
juliank | It prints 'E: No packages found' now if no package could be found. | 14:52 |
juliank | dnivra: rdepends just calls depends with a reverse switch on. | 14:52 |
juliank | => yes | 14:53 |
dnivra | juliank, oh yeah true the same function! i forgot :). | 14:53 |
juliank | dnivra: I did not want to take away your bug fun, but this was just too simple to have the ping-pong a patch involves. | 14:54 |
dnivra | juliank, can i ask something- in the patch made, return _error->Error(_("No packages found"));, why is there an _ after Error(. i edited a line exactly like this-added to cmndline.cc actually but it complained error: stray '_' or something. | 14:55 |
juliank | dnivra: _ is a function (well, it's a macro that calls gettext()) | 14:56 |
juliank | _("DD") == gettext("DD") == your translation of "DD" | 14:56 |
dnivra | i see. hmmm wonder why that error arose then. oh well bug is fixed good enough :) | 14:56 |
dnivra | juliank, not the first time :). i patched a bug in gedit long ago but then it was rejected by gnome/ubuntu desktop-i forget. i followed the discussion for a long time and after that lost interest seeing it won't be fixed and so unsubscribed. then, i used this bug to do a session on contributing to ubuntu-thought of showing this as a live fix-and so downloaded the latest source file only to find that the bug was fixed :). | 14:57 |
juliank | dnivra: APT has around 700 other bugs (600 in Debian, 100 in Ubuntu), so if you want something to work on something in APT, you might find something. | 14:59 |
dnivra | juliank, i'm okay with any bug-i'm pretty new to bug fixing. still finding my way around. been working on this bug for nearly a week now so you get the picture right :). | 15:01 |
juliank | dnivra: Than you might want to hack on something else than old obscure complicated APT code. | 15:02 |

ogra_ac | well, my builds usually happen on machines that dont have much ram | 15:53 |
ogra_ac | (read ARM) | 15:53 |
cjwatson | powerpc only got 6 minutes faster out of 40; armel+omap4 got 3 minutes faster out of 62 | 15:56 |
cjwatson | (haven't checked how much variance there is there, though!) | 15:56 |
cjwatson | I imagine you need to be bottlenecked on I/O before it makes much of a difference | 15:56 |

jdstrand | pitti, sconklin: just a thought, as an interim solution, it should be possible for the kernelteam to add a manually generated debdiff to the SRU master bug.... not ideal, but could work until LP is fixed | 17:09 |
pitti | that'd be awesome | 17:09 |
pitti | (and actually that's already part of the SRU policy..) | 17:09 |
pitti | bonus points if you can filterdiff -x '*/debian.master/*' | 17:10 |
pitti | and all the ABI diffs (which usually account for 90% of the size) | 17:10 |
jdstrand | sconklin: to generate a debdiff: debdiff <current kernel in -updates/-security>.dsc <-poposed kernel>.dsc | 17:10 |
jdstrand | sconklin: and then filter as pitti mentioned | 17:11 |
pitti | sconklin: alternatively, using git diff across all commits to that upload | 17:11 |
jdstrand | (should be scritable-- we do it on our team) | 17:11 |
cjwatson | https://help.launchpad.net/API | 17:11 |
cjwatson | oops | 17:11 |
pitti | if you diff against the previous tag, that should also be scriptable | 17:11 |
sconklin | in a meeting, but looks like a good idea | 17:13 |
mterry | doko, but actually, I wanted you to look at cluster-glue a bit. There were some issues with libraries being bundled into one package. That's fixed now, but then the question became to add .symbols or use makeshlibs -V. How to best use -V with a source package that doesn't use cdbs/dh7 with lots of libraries in it? | 17:18 |
doko | mterry: hm, ok, will look at these, but it's end of day for me today, and tomorrow I did plan the python transition ... | 17:20 |
mterry | doko, OK. I guess I didn't want you to look at it so much as advice regarding -V. I'll ask another MIR person though. See ya later | 17:21 |
mterry | asac, ^ | 17:22 |
asac | mterry: does it use dh5? | 17:22 |
pitti | barry, doko: are we going to drop support for Python 2.6 from natty, or keep 2.6 and 2.7? the former would reclaim the 9.5 MB of extra CD space that 2.7 added | 17:23 |
mterry | asac, it uses dh at compat level 7, but not new-style dh. Still lists all the dh_* items to run and such | 17:23 |
doko | pitti: can we discuss this at the sprint? | 17:24 |
pitti | doko: sure; I was just curious whether this was already planned, or still in the air | 17:24 |
pitti | doko: thanks | 17:24 |
cjwatson | .symbols means that packages depending on this one get fine-grained calculation of dependencies based on exactly which symbols they use. -V just sets a fixed >= minimum. you can use either - in many cases it isn't worth bothering maintaining symbols file. | 17:24 |
doko | pitti: stop shipping the compiler on the CD | 17:24 |
cjwatson | *files | 17:24 |

pitti | doko: right, thanks for pointing out | 17:25 |
cjwatson | there's a comment in the seeds about why, and everything | 17:25 |
cjwatson | Here we provide a minimal development environment sufficient to build kernel | 17:25 |

james_w | pitti, hi, could I trouble you to take a look at https://code.launchpad.net/~james-w/launchpad-work-items-tracker/multi-project/+merge/42893 soonish? We need some solution for this to have useful charts for Linaro this cycle. | 17:26 |
doko | but how many people do this? | 17:26 |
cjwatson | it's certainly one of the things that is debatable. I was merely saying that it wasn't as simple as being there by accident | 17:26 |
cjwatson | I have no idea how to get data | 17:26 |
pitti | ah, so indeed; I thought this accidentally slipped in as a dependency | 17:26 |
pitti | james_w: I got your mail; will look at it ASAP | 17:27 |
asac | mterry: it probably runs dh_makeshlibs ... you just use the -vVERSION there iirc | 17:27 |
pitti | so, the rallye will be a nice opportunity to have another one of these "what to kick off the CD" fights then | 17:27 |
james_w | pitti, thanks. Doesn't need to interrupt your work, but I promised a solution to this this week. | 17:27 |
asac | mterry: dh_makeshlibs -V'packagename (>= explicit.version)' | 17:28 |
mterry | asac, yar OK. thanks | 17:29 |
RoAkSoAx | asac: but other packages don't have symbols file nor dh_makeshlibs -V'packagename (>= explicit.version)' | 17:29 |
RoAkSoAx | and they just have dh_makeshlibs -V | 17:29 |
cjwatson | dh_makeshlibs(1) documents what that does | 17:30 |

kees | cdbs: hi! no, it doesn't create /etc/fetchmailrc and doesn't set START_DAEMON=yes. | 17:30 |
RoAkSoAx | indeed | 17:30 |
cdbs | kees: hmm? /me confirms | 17:31 |
cdbs | since it did that in mmy case | 17:31 |
kees | cdbs: hm, did you apt-get purge fetchmail before you started? I tested in a fresh chroot. | 17:32 |
cdbs | kees: well, my case is different. I installed on maverick and then upgraded to natty | 17:33 |
asac | RoAkSoAx: right. but those dont track the API explicitly which is not good | 17:33 |
cdbs | kees: ah, maybe a case that came up due to the upload. I can't see anything wrong with the code | 17:34 |
ScottK | cjwatson: In maverick I can do a fresh install on a broadcom wifi system and get working wireless with dkms, etc from the ISO. If we gave up on that, I would consider it a significant regression for such systems (another reason for gcc). | 17:34 |

cjwatson | (until/unless broadcom fix their stuff ...) | 17:35 |
kees | cdbs: hm, nope. same thing for me still. installed maverick fetchmail in a fresh chroot, START_DAEMON=no, did an update to natty fetchmail, still set to =no. | 17:36 |
cdbs | kees: okay, I am closing bug, Thanks for testing! | 17:36 |
kees | you bet! | 17:37 |
cdbs | Don't know how it happened, I surely remember I never modified any file there | 17:37 |
asac | RoAkSoAx: right. but even there its more important to see that maintainer double checks to catch upstream mistakes etc. | 17:39 |
RoAkSoAx | asac: indeed, to tell you the thruth, at first they didn't even wanted to do the library split! So it's been an strugle to get this to happen in debian | 17:40 |
asac | RoAkSoAx: thanks so much for convincing debian on this! | 17:41 |
* mterry has to run out. bbl | 17:41 | |
