sveinseHi. I have the sources for a package (retrieved with apt-get source) and I need to build the x86 version of it, while I'm running amd64. I guess I need to setup some fakeroot system. Any links to where I can find descriptions of how to do so?13:56

Keybukevery time I type bzr log, I wish it would invoke $PAGER16:24
penguin42you mean like git does? Yeh it's a nice feature16:24
Keybukyeah16:24
* penguin42 hands Keybuk the source16:24
Keybukheh, I don't care enough to patch it16:25
Keybukbesides, I have a feeling they'd reject it anyway16:25

ubottuLaunchpad bug 213718 in Bazaar "Use bzr-pager by default" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/21371816:40
cjwatsonthe picky will observe that I should have put a couple of ~/ in there, but YKWIM :)16:41
Keybukcjwatson: ooooh16:43
Keybukawesome16:43
cjwatson(don't like it myself - I turn that off in git - but I understand others do ...)16:51
KeybukI do, because you never know how much output a given command is going to generate16:53
Keybukand bzr commands can be slow to run16:54
cjwatsonI'm not quite sure why I dislike it; I think it's at least half visceral, "damnit if I wanted a pager I'd have asked for one"16:54
Keybukso you either protect everything with less just in case, which screws up progress bars16:54
Keybukor you run things twice16:55
cjwatsonbut also, my pager is set up to use the alternate screen16:55
cjwatsonand very often I want some of whatever I asked for on my terminal for slightly later16:55
Keybukyeah, I can see how that would annoy you16:55
cjwatsonso the effect of auto-spawning a pager is exactly to cause me to run things twice16:55
cjwatsonI suspect autopaging makes sense iff the pager isn't going to use an alternate screen16:56
cjwatsonunfortunately, neither bzr nor git can know that16:57
* penguin42 tends to use a LOT of terminals/tabs so I don't worry about nuking the contents of one16:57
