| mwhudson | someone please explain pinning to me :-) | 00:50 |
| mwhudson | i'm writing this software that assembles debs from a bunch of archives | 00:50 |
| mwhudson | (it fetches them using python-apt) | 00:50 |
| mwhudson | i want it to very much prefer one archive, even if another archive has a later version | 00:50 |
| mwhudson | i have a feeling this involves editing /etc/apt/preferences (in the kinda fake chroot the code uses) | 00:51 |
| RAOF | I believe ‘apt pinning’ is the search term you're after; I need to look it up every time I try to touch it, so I'm not going to say anything more than that :) | 00:52 |
| mwhudson | yeah | 00:52 |
| mwhudson | it's what goes on the Pin: line that's a bit confusing to me | 00:52 |
| Pici | !pinning | 00:53 |
| ubottu | pinning is an advanced feature that APT can use to prefer particular packages over others. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto | 00:53 |
| Pici | Thats all I know about it too ;) | 00:53 |
| kees | mwhudson: it's what to pin, so like: Pin: release a=$RELEASE | 00:53 |
| kees | where $RELEASE is natty, maverick, etc | 00:53 |
| mwhudson | ah hah, the end of http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/apt-howto/ch-apt-get.en.html seems to be what i want | 00:54 |
| mwhudson | $RELESE comes from where? a Release file in the archive? | 00:54 |
| kees | it's just a name, so Pin: release a=natty | 00:54 |
| kees | I've only ever using pinning for this crazy script: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-security/ubuntu-security-tools/trunk/annotate/head%3A/utilities/downgrade-all | 00:54 |
| kees | that'll remove everything not in the primary archives. | 00:55 |
| mwhudson | hm, looks like i'll need to make a Release file then | 00:57 |
| mwhudson | (the archive i want to prefer is created from scratch) | 00:57 |
| kees | mwhudson: I think you can put other thing on the Pin line, I've just never used any others | 00:57 |
| mwhudson | kees: they all seem to come from the Release file | 00:57 |
| kees | in that case, see this tool http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-security/ubuntu-security-tools/trunk/annotate/head%3A/repo-tools/update_repo | 00:58 |
| ebroder | For what it's worth, there is an apt_preferences(5), but I've never found it to be that useful | 00:58 |
| ebroder | apt-cache policy <package> is also useful for seeing how your pinning rules interact | 00:58 |
| mwhudson | well, according to this documentation from 2005 | 00:58 |

| hyperair | ScottK: er where? | 01:59 |
| ScottK | hyperair: Sorry. Bad joke. | 01:59 |
| hyperair | oh | 01:59 |
| hyperair | haha | 01:59 |
| hyperair | i'm beginning to really hate glib's memory management | 02:00 |
| ScottK | hyperair: How about "sudo service apport start force_start=1" | 02:00 |
| hyperair | ScottK: no, that's different. | 02:00 |
| hyperair | ScottK: i clicked that checkbox "ignore future crashes for this version" | 02:00 |
| hyperair | it's not like i completely disabled apport | 02:00 |
| ScottK | hyperair: OK. Is it in /etc/apport/blacklist.d/apport? | 02:01 |
| ScottK | Or that vicinity ... | 02:02 |
| hyperair | ScottK: nah, it's not there =\ | 02:02 |
| hyperair | i'm trying to debug this dbusmenu crasher i just created by mistake | 02:02 |
| hyperair | did you know glib's memory management sucks? | 02:02 |
| hyperair | really really hard? | 02:02 |
| hyperair | i'm actually amazed at how little people are complaining about dbusmenu and indicator memory leaks | 02:03 |
| hyperair | because if dbusmenu is leaking, pretty much every indicator-using application is leaking | 02:03 |
| ScottK | Much of the target audience for Ubuntu desktop is used to the idea that having to reboot to fix a computer is normal. | 02:06 |
| hyperair | heh | 02:08 |
| hyperair | i mean even among devels. | 02:08 |
| ScottK | Dunno. You're using a different dbusmenu implementation than I am. | 02:09 |
| hyperair | ScottK: KDE uses a different one? | 02:13 |
| ScottK | Sure. It's a standard part of KDE. | 02:43 |
| ebroder | hyperair: My guess for that would be /var/lib/apport or the like, but I don't actually know | 02:55 |
| hyperair | ebroder: hmm it's not there either | 03:02 |
| ebroder | hyperair: How about ~/.config/apport? | 03:06 |

| dholbach | aha! thanks a lot ebroder | 07:09 |
| ebroder | Then run update-grub | 07:09 |

| dholbach | I'll try that | 07:09 |
| dholbach | ebroder, I don't have that line - I guess I just add it and set to text, right? | 07:11 |

| cjwatson | dholbach: you've filed a kernel bug, right? | 08:08 |
| cjwatson | https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2010-December/032244.html | 08:08 |
| dholbach | cjwatson, will do when I get back to the machine | 08:09 |
| ebroder | cjwatson: For what it's worth it's starting to sound like nvidia-current can't handle this across the board | 08:11 |
| ebroder | cjwatson: Oh wait, I take that back. I had heard of it working in one case | 08:12 |
| cjwatson | ebroder: I've definitely had at least one positive report from a user of nvidia-current | 08:14 |
| cjwatson | and of course I guess it differs between nouveau and nvidia so we'll need to figure out how to handle that | 08:15 |
| ebroder | cjwatson: Yeah, I've been trying to come up with something for that that doesn't involve putting the blacklists in the nvidia-* and fglrx packages | 08:16 |
| ebroder | And for what it's worth, I haven't forgotten that I owe you a C module | 08:16 |
| cjwatson | heh | 08:18 |
| cjwatson | ebroder: we could have a .d directory for the blacklists </ugh> | 08:18 |
| ebroder | cjwatson: Sure, it would be a lot nicer if the blacklist files were all kept in one package separate from either grub or the driver packages | 08:19 |
| cjwatson | ebroder: I dunno, I was thinking about that and wondering if it was overengineering to keep it separate from grub2 | 08:21 |
| cjwatson | it would mean we'll have to have breaks each way when the format changes, etc. ... | 08:22 |
| cjwatson | but it does mean we don't have to change the bootloader to change the blacklist. meh | 08:22 |
| ebroder | cjwatson: Yeah, but I suspect we're going to want to rev this increasingly frequently as we get closer to release | 08:23 |
| cjwatson | there is one tricky bit though | 08:24 |
| cjwatson | it's in $prefix, which means it really ought to be dealt with by grub-install | 08:24 |
| cjwatson | that means (say) grub-gfxblacklist would have to deal with running grub-install on upgrade | 08:24 |
| cjwatson | that's a REALLY hairy bit of code | 08:24 |
| cjwatson | see grub-pc.postinst for the horror | 08:25 |
| cjwatson | I'd kind of prefer to keep the invariant that only grub-$platform runs grub-install | 08:25 |
| ebroder | That thought had crossed my mind. Unless I'm forgetting what I wrote, I intentionally didn't name the file foo.lst to avoid the grub-install wiping it out, so we can have update-grub drop it into place | 08:25 |
| cjwatson | you named it gfxblacklist.lst, actually :) | 08:25 |
| ebroder | Ah, curses | 08:25 |
| cjwatson | grub-install doesn't remove foreign .lst files though | 08:26 |
| ebroder | I'm pretty sure it has a rm $prefix/*.{lst,mod,a few others} | 08:26 |
| cjwatson | I don't see that | 08:26 |
| cjwatson | oh, wait, you're right | 08:26 |
| ebroder | It's a bit obtuse. But it's focused enough that we can name our files around it | 08:27 |
| cjwatson | however: we could have grub-gfxblacklist install it in /usr/lib/grub/i386-pc/ so that grub-install will copy it, and additionally refresh it at update-grub time | 08:27 |
| cjwatson | that seems reasonable if slightly twisty to me | 08:27 |
| ebroder | refresh it> as in refresh the one in $prefix? | 08:28 |
| cjwatson | or actually not even update-grub, just refresh it in grub-gfxblacklist.postinst | 08:28 |
| cjwatson | yeah | 08:28 |
| ebroder | Yeah, that doesn't seem too horrid | 08:28 |
| cjwatson | saves having to write a grub.d hook with no output or whatever | 08:28 |

| dholbach | hey seb128 - good work yesterday! | 08:45 |
| seb128 | dholbach, thanks! | 08:45 |
| dholbach | down to 30! | 08:45 |
| seb128 | ;-) | 08:45 |
| dholbach | we're getting there :) | 08:45 |
| seb128 | in fact less | 08:45 |
| seb128 | we should filter out the incomplete | 08:45 |
| seb128 | or the merge requests that are "need fixing" | 08:46 |
| seb128 | half of the list are things that need work | 08:46 |
| dholbach | hmhmhm | 08:46 |
| seb128 | see the status column | 08:46 |
| ebroder | One problem I've noticed is that UDD branches are by default reviewed by ~ubuntu-branches, so nobody can get them out of the queue | 08:46 |
| seb128 | (Needs fixing) | 08:46 |
| seb128 | (Needs fixing) | 08:46 |
| seb128 | etc | 08:46 |
| seb128 | ebroder, right | 08:47 |
| ebroder | Some people set them to ~ubuntu-sponsors or ~ubuntu-dev, which is great, but most don't | 08:47 |
| dholbach | ebroder, that's no problem - the script that generates http://reqorts.qa.ubuntu.com/reports/sponsoring/ takes care of that | 08:48 |
| seb128 | there is also some "Disapprove" in the list | 08:49 |
| dholbach | seb128, aha! | 08:49 |
| ebroder | dholbach: Look at http://bit.ly/fFlmak for instance. I wanted to reject that and take it out of the queue, but I couldn't | 08:49 |
| seb128 | the logilab one for example | 08:49 |
| dholbach | seb128, we should set the status of the merge proposal to "work in progress" then | 08:49 |
| seb128 | dholbach, why? | 08:49 |
| seb128 | the correct status is "Needs work" | 08:49 |
| dholbach | because work is required? | 08:49 |
| seb128 | work in progress would suggest someone is doing the work | 08:49 |
| dholbach | seb128, not comment status, but merge proposal status | 08:49 |
| seb128 | right | 08:49 |
| dholbach | right now I only check for "Needs Review" because LP can give me that easily | 08:50 |
| seb128 | but I take "Work in progress" as "is being worked" | 08:50 |
| dholbach | well | 08:50 |
| dholbach | there's only "WIP", "merged", "needs review" | 08:50 |
| ebroder | dholbach: What about removing a MP from the sponsor queue if there's a negative review from someone on ~ubuntu-dev? (Assuming you can look at just comments starting from the last time the MP was resubmitted) | 08:50 |
| seb128 | dholbach, no there is not | 08:50 |
| seb128 | there is "Needs Work" | 08:51 |
| seb128 | but the status is not available for some reason | 08:51 |
| dholbach | seb128, I'm talking about the status right at the start of the page | 08:51 |
| ebroder | seb128: It's at the very top of the page | 08:51 |
| dholbach | that's what I call "merge proposal status" | 08:51 |
| repete | persia, What is the default browser for Ubuntu on ARM? | 08:51 |
| seb128 | dholbach, right sorry, I'm being confused | 08:52 |
| dholbach | ebroder, the problem is that subsequent reviews (maybe in a resubmitted proposal) might approve it again - it's a bit tricky | 08:52 |
| seb128 | that's "rejected" which is missing | 08:52 |
| seb128 | on https://code.launchpad.net/~dobey/ubuntu/natty/logilab-common/namespace-packages/+merge/43841 for example | 08:52 |
| seb128 | dholbach, I'm fine using wip to filter things out if you want | 08:53 |
| seb128 | we should just make clear it's the way to do it | 08:53 |
| ebroder | dholbach: It might be useful to send mail to u-d or something so that people know that in general | 08:53 |

| dholbach | if you think there's a better way (like find a way to parse if one of the last comments disapproves/needs-fixing, etc.), you could file a bug on https://launchpad.net/ubuntu-sponsoring/+filebug | 08:54 |
| dholbach | or if we think that "Needs information" in terms of sponsoring bugs should be filtered out too, we can discuss that in the bug | 08:55 |
| dholbach | (if that's intuitive enough) | 08:55 |
| ebroder | No, I agree - I can't come up with a scheme that doesn't break down with multiple valid reviews | 08:55 |
| seb128 | dholbach, what about filtering out "Incomplete"? | 08:56 |
| seb128 | does that requires discussion? | 08:56 |
| ebroder | seb128: Uh, I think the queue might need better detection of what the relevant bugtask is before we start doing that | 08:56 |
| dholbach | ugh, yeah, ebroder's right | 08:57 |
| ebroder | (It frequently picks the wrong one right now) | 08:57 |
| dholbach | we should stop using bugs with patches altogether :) | 08:57 |
| seb128 | ok, so we should unsubscribe the sponsor and ask to subscribe them again when the issue are adressed? | 08:57 |
| dholbach | but if it's just one ubuntu task it should be easy | 08:57 |
| dholbach | I'll file a bug about that one | 08:58 |
| ebroder | seb128: Yes, for bugs definitely unsub sponsors if you ask them to fix something, and tell them to resub when they're done | 08:58 |
| ebroder | dholbach: LP doesn't always get the right bug component for linked branches, either :-P | 08:58 |
| dholbach | and for the merge proposals we could do something like define a bunch of bad_statuses (disapprove, needs work, needs info, etc.) and see if those are the last comments that were added | 08:58 |
| dholbach | ebroder, then we can drop the code for bugs and just do merge proposals ;-) | 08:59 |
| ebroder | dholbach: Check out the bugtask LP chose for https://code.launchpad.net/~broder/ubuntu/lucid/update-inetd/fix-601732/+merge/40737, though | 08:59 |
| seb128 | one other issues is that some merge proposed are not listed | 08:59 |
| seb128 | but I'm not sure how to fix that | 09:00 |
| dholbach | seb128, which one? | 09:00 |
| seb128 | like desktop ones | 09:00 |
| seb128 | because we don'tuse lp:ubuntu | 09:00 |
| seb128 | but a team vcs | 09:00 |
| seb128 | so the mp are for the ubuntu archive | 09:00 |
| seb128 | but it's not trivial to make the difference between those and a random vcs merge proposal | 09:00 |
| seb128 | I guess that's what we get for using a team vcs :p | 09:00 |

I'm going to be reviewing and uploading them starting shortly. I was wondering if I could have permission to also do the accept once they are all uploaded. KDE packages have a sequence they build in and I'd like to dribble them in in such a way as they don't flood the buildds. | 13:41 |

| tkamppeter | cjwatson, thank you very much. | 13:41 |
| cjwatson | ScottK: hm, I never accept my own uploads as a matter of policy - do they not have suitable build-depends? | 13:43 |
| cjwatson | if you give me the sequence I would be happy to follow it | 13:43 |
| ScottK | cjwatson: They do, but due to soyuz funkyness uploading all at once results in a lot of FTBFS that have to be retried. | 13:44 |
| ScottK | OK. | 13:44 |
| cjwatson | wow, that's crazy | 13:44 |
| cjwatson | OK then ... | 13:44 |
| ScottK | For lucid we can probably upload them in reverse order and not accept kde4libs until everything is depwait. Then it should ~work. | 13:45 |
| cjwatson | well, I'll be around for maybe seven hours yet | 13:45 |
| ScottK | Unfortunately the wiki doesn't version attachements. The current order for Natty is https://wiki.kubuntu.org/Kubuntu/Ninjas/DependencyGraph. | 13:45 |
| ScottK | OK. | 13:45 |
| cjwatson | (except that I need to go and resupply on rewritable DVDs) | 13:46 |
| ScottK | With the exception of meta-kde not being relevant for Lucid that should be approximately correct for Lucid. | 13:46 |
| * cjwatson fails to understand the positioning of meta-kde in that graph | 13:47 | |
| cjwatson | (also it's kde4libs rather than kdelibs, right?) | 13:48 |
| ScottK | Yes. | 13:48 |
| ScottK | That hasn't changed, we just tend to know that one (the bzr packaging branches are under kdelibs) | 13:49 |
| ScottK | cjwatson: I've started uploading, so you can start accepting. As long as we don't get kde4libs in before everything hits depwait, order isn't terribly significant (we lost this feature later when we improved the packaging and I'd forgotten about it) | 14:13 |
| cjwatson | ScottK: so I do the lot but kde4libs *last*? seems counter-intuitive, but OK ... | 14:17 |
| ScottK | cjwatson: There's an oddity of soyuz that it will fail a build if a build-dep is uninstallable (or something close to that), but if it isn't present in sufficent version will depwait. Once it's in depwait, if the build-dep is uninstallable it just goes back to depwait. | 14:18 |

| mdeslaur | cyphermox: I'll email it to you, hold on a sec | 14:26 |
| * tseliot has a look at the patch | 14:26 | |
| cyphermox | mdeslaur, however, I do have the updated evolution-data-server ready in my PPA now, just want to test that your migration issue is really fixed... for the calendar stuff it is, I checked :) | 14:26 |
| mdeslaur | cyphermox: well, I can't migrate a second time :( | 14:27 |
| cyphermox | nah, that's fine, I'll try to reproduce the issue and force migration again | 14:29 |
| cyphermox | I may still have a pre-migration backup | 14:29 |
| mdeslaur | cyphermox: I don't know what old version of evo added the URI to gconf...it may have been older than maverick | 14:29 |
| cyphermox | ok | 14:29 |
| tseliot | cjwatson: it looks fine to me. I've noticed that you put a "v" at the beginning of the pci id (v10ded0298.*). Maybe I should have a look at your update-grub-gfxpayload script to see how it parses expressions in the blacklist file | 14:30 |

| kirkland_ | hallyn_: where do they want it to land? | 15:16 |
| kirkland_ | hallyn_: i'd recommend ~ubuntu-virt's PPA for starters | 15:16 |
| seb128 | kirkland: thanks, you are the second to confirm that downgrading compiz fix it | 15:16 |
| kirkland_ | seb128: np; thanks for the help | 15:16 |
| kirkland_ | hallyn_: that has long been the destination for mostly-stable backports of kvm | 15:16 |
| kirkland_ | hallyn_: see the kvm-84 backport for hardy | 15:17 |
| kirkland_ | hallyn_: we could also pursue lucid-backports | 15:17 |
| hallyn_ | kirkland_: i'll take a look at ~ubuntu-virt, thanks | 15:17 |
| kirkland_ | hallyn_: which has only a *slightly* wider audience, but involves significantly more work to push it there | 15:17 |
| hallyn_ | that does feel more comfortable | 15:17 |
| kirkland_ | hallyn_: yeah, i kinda like that ~ubuntu-virt is typically only found by people who really need/want it | 15:18 |
| kirkland_ | hallyn_: -backports is stumbled upon by all sorts of random users | 15:18 |
| kirkland_ | hallyn_: is there a known bug or feature in particular that people want out of 0.12.5? | 15:18 |

| kirkland_ | hallyn_: (like mahmoh and yourself, I'm pretty happy with 0.12.5) | 15:18 |
| psusi | cjwatson: I noticed last night on natty that the plymouth screen looks terrible. I think this is because of the gfx_keep_payload change in grub leaving plymouth running the screen in 640x480. Any ideas on fixing that? Seems like grub needs to use the correct resolution or not keep_payload. | 15:21 |
| cjwatson | psusi: already improved in grub2 1.99~20101210-1ubuntu1 | 15:22 |
| cjwatson | (which should have been in the archive already, but failed to be because of launchpad librarian downtime - sorting that out now) | 15:22 |
| psusi | oh goody... how? ;) | 15:22 |
| cjwatson | grub now does vbe resolution autodetection as best it can | 15:22 |
| psusi | ohh... nifty | 15:22 |
| cjwatson | you should get the closest mode that's no larger than the preferred mode claimed by your vesa bios | 15:22 |
| cjwatson | (sometimes the preferred mode is not in fact in the vbe mode list. blame your bios manufacturers for that piece of genius) | 15:23 |
| psusi | heh | 15:23 |
| hallyn_ | kirkland_: there were specific bugs he cited | 15:23 |
| kirkland_ | hallyn_: okay | 15:23 |
| psusi | here's to hoping my bios correctly reads the edid info and reports that as the preferrred mode | 15:23 |
| cjwatson | so it might still not look brilliant - my laptop has a 1280x800 panel but the closest resolution in vbe is 1024x768 | 15:23 |
| kirkland_ | hallyn_: well for specific bugs with specific commits, we can obviously cherry pick and get an SRU out | 15:24 |
| cjwatson | but it should be better than 640x480 | 15:24 |
| kirkland_ | hallyn_: otherwise, just upload to ~ubuntu-virt | 15:24 |
| cjwatson | some bioses don't manage to report decent edid, some do :-/ | 15:24 |
| kirkland_ | hallyn_: i think that would be a real good idea, actually | 15:24 |
| hallyn_ | like virtio corrupting >1Tb disks | 15:24 |
| kirkland_ | hallyn_: oh. well that's SRU material | 15:24 |
| cjwatson | grub tries edid followed by the vbe flat panel extension, which is roughly the same logic used by xserver-xorg-video-vesa | 15:24 |
| hallyn_ | i beg to disagree about 'obviously cherry pick' :) | 15:24 |
| psusi | so since it isn't in the vbe mode table at all, it just isn't possible for grub to go to 1280x1024 right? even if you set the config file up to use that resolution? | 15:24 |
| cjwatson | correct, unfortunately | 15:24 |
| hallyn_ | when the code bse totally changes underneath you ... | 15:25 |
| cjwatson | at least not without importing something equivalent to kernel modesetting | 15:25 |
| hallyn_ | yeah ill upload to ~ubuntu-virt | 15:25 |
| psusi | blast | 15:25 |
| kirkland_ | hallyn_: okay, you're on ~ubuntu-virt now | 15:25 |
| hallyn_ | cool, thanks. i'll see what i can do with that | 15:25 |
| cjwatson | however, it would be fixable by a bios rev | 15:25 |
| psusi | now... a side effect of the higher resolution is making the font used on the boot menu smaller isn't it? | 15:25 |
| cjwatson | probably, I haven't looked much at that yet | 15:25 |
| cjwatson | up to a certain point that's an improvement of course | 15:26 |
| kirkland_ | hallyn_: how many git commits are there between 0.12.3 and 0.12.5? | 15:26 |
| cjwatson | it's a bit big and chunky on 640x480 | 15:26 |
| psusi | I think the last time I tried using the higher resolutions that happened because grub uses raster fonts, so it needs to load a larger raster font for higher resolutions or it is hard to read | 15:26 |
| kirkland_ | hallyn_: (you don't have to answer that question now, unless you have git in front of you) | 15:26 |
| cjwatson | I'm not too desperately worried about that for the meantime | 15:26 |
| kirkland_ | hallyn_: you know, if it's a handful (maybe 10 or less? i don't know ...) we could consider grabbing the set and adding them to lucid's | 15:27 |
| kirkland_ | hallyn_: i suspect its a lot more than that | 15:27 |
| psusi | for the meantime meaning testing during the development cycle? or you would be ok going to release with hard to read boot menu? | 15:27 |
| kirkland_ | hallyn_: aliguori takes a lot of "stabilization" patches :-) | 15:27 |
| cjwatson | the latter, TBH | 15:28 |
| cjwatson | it doesn't seem hard to read on any hardware I have | 15:28 |
| cjwatson | maybe if you have a 1920x1280 panel or something | 15:28 |
| psusi | 1280x1024 makes the default font quite small ;) | 15:28 |
| cjwatson | (or whatever it is) | 15:28 |
| smb | cjwatson, Is it possible to have the "daily" lucid install images rebuild with the current updates kernel? There is bug 546091 which depends on the updated kernel being in the installer and the last build seems to have been Nov-24. | 15:29 |

| psusi | but I suppose that is better than flickering or ugly plymouth screen | 15:29 |
| hallyn_ | kirkland_: unfortunately i don't have the tree in front of me, but i remember looking at what it would take to cherrypick some of those, and it was huge | 15:29 |
| psusi | maybe I'll take a look at having grub switch to a larger font when it is using a higher resolution | 15:29 |
| hallyn_ | definately not LTS material - that is, cherry-picking would be more dangerous than taking the maveick version, imo | 15:29 |
| cjwatson | psusi: if you want to, sure | 15:29 |
| kirkland_ | hallyn_: yeah, it was more a thought exercise | 15:29 |
| cjwatson | smb: sure, give me a minute | 15:29 |
| kirkland_ | hallyn_: right, agreed | 15:29 |

| kirkland_ | hallyn_: at least when aliguori was running ubuntu a lot, he'd poke me when he saw a mission critical stable commit come across, that he thought we'd want to SRU | 15:33 |
| kirkland_ | hallyn_: word, thanks. | 15:33 |
| kirkland_ | hallyn_: you can probably just take mahmoh's 0.12.5, update the version appending a ~ppa1 on it, and dput to the ~ubuntu-virt ppa | 15:34 |
| hallyn_ | kirkland_: ok, cool. so first i'll do the ppa, then i'll just try to cherrypick the critical ones and talk to aliguori if i must. (tbh my impression had been that he really was not interested in helping with that, but i'll see) | 15:35 |
| cjwatson | smb: wait. that bug is claimed to be fixed in linux 2.6.32-26.47. the installer on the current lucid CDs was built against linux 2.6.32-26.47. what difference would rebuilding make? | 15:36 |

| tkamppeter | cjwatson, seb128, I have posted a MIR for pyppd now (bug #691133). Should I already modify foomatic-db to build-depend on pyppd? Or have I to wait for the MIR being approved? | 15:43 |

| kibibyte | why ubuntu package maintainers doesnt create any libreoffice package | 15:47 |

| seb128 | jdstrand, thanks ;-) | 15:49 |
| jdstrand | sure | 15:49 |

| seb128 | kibibyte, there is nobody working on openoffice either | 15:50 |
| seb128 | kibibyte, there is an open position at Canonical for it though | 15:50 |

| jdstrand | seb128: sure! :) | 15:57 |
| kibibyte | is it har to create package for libreoffice? | 15:58 |
| kibibyte | hard | 15:58 |
| kibibyte | i just did once simple package | 15:58 |
| jdstrand | I think that Canonical having a dedicated position for packaging and maintaining openoffice.org is an indication it is non-trivial | 15:59 |
| jdstrand | put another way. yes | 15:59 |
| highvoltage | kibibyte: doing any kind of decent libreoffice packages is a lot of work | 16:00 |
| cjwatson | without wishing to disparage any other package, openoffice.org is probably the single most complex package in the archive | 16:00 |
| * jdstrand unfondly remembers oo.o security updates :) | 16:00 | |
| cjwatson | how much that simplifies with libreoffice, I'm not certain; there are packages in Debian experimental | 16:00 |

I've scoured for a while not able to find it. Anyone know where the docs for it are located? | 18:40 |
| ScottK | cjwatson: I had to reupload kdebindings and kdebase due to forgetting to include the tarball. They are waiting for you .... | 18:42 |

| cjwatson | kees: ok, I'll look in a bit | 19:41 |
| dwalker | cjwatson: i'm really looking for a guide on what all the d-i options are for preseeding | 19:41 |
| cjwatson | dwalker: the useful ones should all be in the installation-guide | 19:42 |
| cjwatson | there are lots of internal ones - a full dump would confuse more than help | 19:42 |
| dwalker | the installation-guide seems a bit sparse when it comes to all the partman-auto settings, is there a more drilled down guide on those? I've been scouring the net for examples and got most of what I need, but the partman recipes are a bruiser | 19:43 |
| cjwatson | dwalker: yes, /usr/share/doc/debian-installer/devel/partman-auto-recipe.txt.gz in the debian-installer package | 19:45 |
| cjwatson | ScottK: done all but kde4libs - let me know when it's safe to accept that? | 19:45 |

| cjwatson | kees: tell me (or the bug) about the disk layout on this system? | 19:46 |

| ScottK | Probably not until after the last one though. | 20:10 |
| micahg | ScottK: you mean until 4.5.x is EOL? | 20:10 |
| ScottK | micahg: Normally KDE does 4 or 5 point updates and moves on. | 20:11 |
| micahg | ScottK: so, not incremental updates, just one final update | 20:11 |
| ScottK | IIRC 4.5.4 just come out. | 20:11 |
| ScottK | We'll package all the intermin versions in ~kubuntu-ppa for testing. | 20:12 |

| micahg | ScottK: I assume that PPA is fairly stable then? | 20:13 |

| dwalker_ | cjwatson: not sure if your good with the partman stuff in the debian-installer but is there a way to create a recipe for it that defines partitions on different disks?

| Shayon | Hi I am wondering what programming laguages are required or one should know in order to start developing . I know it depends on personal preference and interest . But right now I am just a student (freshmen) and looking for some guidance :P | 20:25 |
| nemo | Shayon: personally I think people learning to develop should start with a high level intepreted language or a low level language like C | 20:29 |
| Shayon | nemo, i see. thanks :) | 20:30 |
| Shayon | i started with c++ | 20:30 |
| nemo | ah | 20:30 |
| nemo | IMO that's a rough place to start | 20:30 |
| nemo | C++ is rather complex | 20:30 |
| Shayon | then you mean c /? | 20:31 |
| dwalker_ | though it seems like many colleges are teaching either java or c++ as the intro languages | 20:31 |
| Shayon | i guess java is def. hig end | 20:31 |
| nemo | dwalker_: I'd say java is a better intro language | 20:31 |
| nemo | dwalker_: fewer surprises | 20:31 |
| Shayon | not* | 20:31 |
| nemo | dwalker_: we started with C at my college. although I understand they have switched to java now | 20:31 |
| dwalker_ | nemo: meh, I'm self taught C when I was 12, I figure if you can't learn it yourself it's a long uphill battle. | 20:32 |
| nemo | but I think just for learning, oh, data structures and whatnot, hell, you could start with javasciprt | 20:32 |
| nemo | now that javascript has types | 20:32 |
| Shayon | dwalker_, 12 ? Well thats sweet :) | 20:32 |
| nemo | dwalker_: mm. my first language was pascal - mom shipped me off to local community college when my bro was 9 and I was 10 | 20:32 |
| nemo | we struggled | 20:32 |
| nemo | dwalker_: I self-taught visual basic | 20:32 |
| nemo | er | 20:32 |
| nemo | basic | 20:33 |
| nemo | there was no visual back then :) | 20:33 |
| nemo | I still have some of my programs from when I was a kid :) | 20:33 |
| dwalker_ | ummm pascal | 20:33 |
| nemo | dwalker_: I use it a lot today, amusingly | 20:33 |
| nemo | on Hedgewars | 20:33 |
| dwalker_ | I've recently gotten a haskell fettish developing. | 20:34 |
| * xnox javascript self-taught grasshops at 11 | 20:34 | |
| * xnox later pascal at a CS after-school club at 16 | 20:35 | |
| === dwalker_ is now known as dwalker[afk] | ||
| xnox | dwalker[afk], hmmmm I want to try Haskell one day =) my last fettish was ObjC | 20:35 |
| ScottK | nemo: For Ubuntu development C, Python, and C++ are probably the most useful. | 20:36 |
| nemo | dwalker[afk]: hedgewars also uses haskell :) | 20:36 |
| nemo | dwalker[afk]: server is haskell, engine is pascal | 20:37 |
| nemo | ScottK: well. Python satisfies "high level" and C "low level" - I just would not suggest people start with C++ | 20:37 |
| nemo | they might get some odd ideas | 20:37 |
| ScottK | Depends. If you want to develop for KDE, the C ideas are the odd ones. | 20:38 |
| nemo | Qt is not exactly C++ either :) | 20:42 |
| nemo | ScottK: I'm just saying the advantage of C is you learn 'sactly what is doing what in a computer | 20:42 |
| nemo | and high level, you get to focus on language concepts | 20:42 |
| nemo | but C++ is just an odd mix | 20:42 |

| cjwatson | dwalker_: unfortunately partman really isn't especially good at that yet. I personally just use LVM in those situations - makes things much easier anyway. | 21:21 |
| cjwatson | ScottK: meh, I should only have to wait a couple of minutes for kdeutils now so I might as well wait | 21:22 |
| achiang | hello, i know that there are known issues with using usb-creator to create a Lucid USB stick while hosted on Maverick; are there issues in the other direction too? | 21:22 |
| ScottK | cjwatson: OK. Thanks. | 21:22 |
| achiang | hosted on Lucid, and trying to create a maverick USB key? | 21:22 |
| cjwatson | ScottK: (I assume you've seen the sparc failures) | 21:22 |
| ScottK | cjwatson: Yes. Those are expected. KDE was totally broken on sparc at release and so this isn't a regression. | 21:23 |
| * cjwatson nods | 21:23 | |
| dwalker_ | cjwatson: yeah I caught that in some site 8000 searches later that partman can't do multiple disks for preseed | 21:26 |
| cjwatson | I do kind of intend to fix that at some point, but ... | 21:27 |
| PetrHH | Hello, I'd like to use mysql embedded in my app and want to store database to user's directory but apparmor privets me in it. Strange is, that ~/tmp is accessible but when I create directory e.g. ~/abc, it is not. Where could be a problem, please? | 21:30 |
| ScottK | PetrHH: You might look at what the amarok package does. AFAIK it uses mysqle. | 21:31 |
| cjwatson | ScottK: build dominoes should be starting now. (only amd64+i386 have so far dep-waited kdeutils, but the rest should finish well before kde4libs builds and publishes and renders stuff uninstallable. besides, I'm bored of waiting. :-) ) | 21:31 |
| ScottK | cjwatson: Excellent. Thank very much for taking care of it. | 21:31 |

| PetrHH | ScottK, I'm sorry I don't understand. Strange is that mysqld command works if I run it from ~/tmp and doesn't work when I run it from ~/abc. I double checked, directories has the same permission but apparmon won't allow mysqld to wok at ~/abc | 21:37 |
| PetrHH | I don't know why. I didn't change anything in apparmor configuration. Even I don't know where and how. | 21:38 |
| PetrHH | I have ubuntu 10.04 | 21:39 |
| jdstrand | PetrHH: what do you mean 'run from tmp'? you put it's database there? | 21:40 |

| === jonatin is now known as jonatin_ | ||
| PetrHH | jdstrand, Yes, just for testing | 21:44 |
| jdstrand | PetrHH: yes, it will work in /tmp and not from $HOME. you can see the denied messages in dmesg | 21:45 |
| jdstrand | PetrHH: you have to adjust the profile | 21:45 |
| PetrHH | Here is the command: mysqld --defaults-file=`pwd`/my.cnf --default-storage-engine=MyISAM --datadir=`pwd` --socket=`pwd`/sock --skip-grant-tables --port=3334 | 21:45 |
| jdstrand | PetrHH: the apparmor profile that is | 21:45 |
| PetrHH | jdstrand, but it works from ~/tmp | 21:45 |
| PetrHH | but not from ~/abc | 21:45 |
| jdstrand | PetrHH: yes | 21:46 |
| jdstrand | that is consistent with the apparmor policy | 21:46 |
| jdstrand | look at /etc/apparmor.d/usr.sbin.mysqld | 21:46 |
| PetrHH | thank you | 21:47 |
| PetrHH | ScottK, where I can find out it? | 21:59 |
| ScottK | PetrHH: apt-get source akonadi. | 21:59 |

| xnox | No patch pilot..... I'm failing to find info on how to request a package rebuild?! | 22:11 |
| StevenK | xnox: Which package? | 22:12 |
| xnox | anjuta-extras | 22:12 |
| xnox | depends on older binutils that is already in natty. Rebuild makes it work. | 22:12 |
| xnox | s / that / than / | 22:12 |
| micahg | xnox: file a bug and attach a debdiff or create a branch is how to request one | 22:13 |
| xnox | micahg, ok, i'll do that then. | 22:13 |
| micahg | xnox: dch -R and describe the reason | 22:13 |
| StevenK | I was just going to fix it | 22:14 |
| StevenK | TBH :-) | 22:14 |
| micahg | well, that works too | 22:14 |
| micahg | xnox: ^^ | 22:14 |
| xnox | StevenK, please do that. I thought there was a script to generate $version+b1 and upload it | 22:14 |
| xnox | but I'm not ubuntu-dev so it will be PITA to create branch, find sponsor, upload that.... =) | 22:15 |
| StevenK | I can't think of one, of the top of my head | 22:15 |
| micahg | xnox: dch -R is the scripts and a simple debdiff works | 22:15 |
| micahg | oh, won't upload :-/ | 22:16 |
| xnox | StevenK, anjuta-extras is "synced from debian" although I think it should be managed by ~desktop-team, because anjuta is managed there. | 22:16 |
| PetrHH | ScottK, I added rule to apparmor and it works. Thank you. I looked at akonadi and found out that mysqld binary is copied to mysqld-akonadi. I'm not sure that it is good idea. What happened when original mysqld is updated? But don;t know what is better. Copying mysqld or adding my own rule to usr.sbin.mysqld file. | 22:17 |
| xnox | micahg, --bin-nmu is better =) | 22:17 |
| micahg | xnox: we don't do those :P | 22:17 |
| ScottK | PetrHH: jdstrand would be the one to discuss it with. | 22:17 |
| ScottK | jdstrand: If we could get rid of mysql-akonadi that would be marvelous. | 22:17 |
| jdstrand | mysqld-akonadi is currently configured to run unconfined | 22:18 |
| * xnox recalls a vague discussion to use +b1 version string on "ubuntu-style 'binnmu' source upload, no change, just rebuild uploads" | 22:18 | |
| jdstrand | ScottK: I agree | 22:18 |
| jdstrand | don't currently have the cycles | 22:18 |
| jdstrand | PetrHH: ^ | 22:18 |
| micahg | xnox: nope, build1 for native/Debian or increment Ubuntu version | 22:18 |
| xnox | micahg, that way it doesn't end up in the merge-o-matic next time around and continues to sync. | 22:18 |
| * xnox might be wrong | 22:18 | |
| StevenK | It should continue to sync | 22:18 |
| StevenK | It's just a changelog entry, and it doesn't matter if it dies in a fire | 22:19 |
| jdstrand | PetrHH: in terms of security updates, should be fine because mysqld-akonadi would get updated | 22:19 |
| jdstrand | PetrHH: bottom line-- if you can add the line to your apparmor profile, that is best | 22:19 |
| xnox | StevenK, micahg =) ok learned something new. | 22:19 |
| micahg | xnox: that's why it's better to use dch -R and not worry about what it should be | 22:19 |
| xnox | So StevenK when can I $ sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude install anjuta-extras from my preffered mirror from Estonia? | 22:20 |
| xnox | =)))))) | 22:20 |
| StevenK | A few hours, at least | 22:20 |
| xnox | =( | 22:21 |
| PetrHH | jdstrand, thank you very much, I'll do it. My app was designed to run from $HOME and now I'm working to package it so I must do a lot of changed. Thank you for patience. | 22:21 |

| xnox | cleaned-up version =) | 23:18 |
| xnox | diff is being generated. | 23:18 |
| micahg | xnox: sorry, I can't upload though :) | 23:18 |
| xnox | micahg, =)))) if you understand firefox you should be granted full upload rights ;-) | 23:19 |
| xnox | to *everything* | 23:19 |
| xnox | =) | 23:19 |
| micahg | xnox: I highly disagree :) | 23:19 |
| xnox | alright then =) | 23:20 |
| xnox | micahg, + AC_CHECK_LIB(X11,XCreateBitmapFromData) in configure.in needs regenerating configure scripts =) meh | 23:21 |
| micahg | xnox: ah, but why is that needed? | 23:22 |
| xnox | Fix FTBFS because of --as-needed | 23:22 |
| xnox | all three issues cause FTBFS | 23:22 |
| xnox | (well make subdir makes fail was "hiding" one of the FTBFS by not erroring out) | 23:22 |
| micahg | xnox: right, but adding to build-dep isn't enough, the build system needs to be patched (in Ubuntu)? | 23:23 |
| xnox | micahg, yes! See doko announcing on -devel "Natty toolchain changes" | 23:23 |
| micahg | nm, I'm still green WRT autoconf-foo | 23:24 |
| xnox | libtool will now only link as-needed from what is supplied on the link line. | 23:24 |
| xnox | if there is no -lX11 on the link line libtool will no longer "add it for you" in natty based on dependencies from dependencies. | 23:25 |
| micahg | xnox: ah, and the AC_CHECK_LIB is the clean way to do that | 23:25 |
| xnox | micahg, Consider libA <- libB <- libC. If app links against libA should it be automatically linked against libB and libC? If it uses symbols from libC but not from libB? That's what the change is about =) you have to ask to get libC. | 23:26 |
| xnox | micahg, yes AC_CHECK_LIB is clean way to do that. But it is not the only way to do it. | 23:26 |
| xnox | upstream seems to preffer AC_CHECK_LIB, I on the other hand preffer pkg-config. | 23:27 |
| micahg | xnox: ok, yeah, I know about the linking requirements WRT needing to be explicit, but still unsure about where/how those fixes go | 23:27 |
| xnox | micahg, easy =) ld tells you | 23:31 |
| xnox | Linking htmldoc... | 23:31 |
| xnox | /usr/bin/ld: gui.o: undefined reference to symbol 'XCreateBitmapFromData' | 23:31 |
| xnox | /usr/bin/ld: note: 'XCreateBitmapFromData' is defined in DSO /usr/lib/libX11.so.6 so try adding it to the linker command line | 23:31 |
| xnox | /usr/lib/libX11.so.6: could not read symbols: Invalid operation | 23:31 |
| xnox | collect2: ld returned 1 exit status | 23:31 |
| micahg | xnox: right, I get that, but how to add the dependency is where I run into issues, I just need to read a little more I think | 23:32 |
| xnox | micahg, http://bit.ly/eHLcbx <---- I read this every night before going to bed =) | 23:34 |
