slangasekSpamapS: restarting portmap doesn't seem to actually cause statd to be restarted (at least in maverick), because 'ON_BOOT=' doesn't match a job that doesn't have ON_BOOT as a variable at all... does this work in natty?06:31

aalexI am a Debian maintainer. How can I file a bug to ask for a package's version to be more recent for the next Natty release? (the version at the freeze date contains bugs)08:27
brycehaalex, there is a requestsync script08:30
aalexbryceh, in ubuntu-dev-tools ?08:32
brycehaalex, or just file a bug report at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+filebug - "Please sync foobar <version> from debian" against the appropriate package08:32
aalex(I'm on Lucid right now)08:32
brycehaalex, yes, that's right08:33
aalexbryceh, Or there: https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/natty/toonloop/natty08:33

nucc1hi, i get this error while trying to build evolution http://pastie.org/1465981 . anyone know what I'm missing?09:11
gesernucc1: install "dh-autoreconf" and "gnome-pkg-tools"09:23
nucc1geser, thanks, i sort of guessed the gnome-pkg-tools one though :)09:24
geseraalex: does the computer you run requestsync on have a working internet connection?09:25
aalexgeser, no09:34
geseraalex: requestsync can either mail the bug report to Launchpad (with smtp) or file it directly (with http; LP API)09:35
aalexgeser, ok... how can I get it to work the easiest way?09:36
=== popey_ is now known as popey
aalexI never got reportbug to work either09:36
geseraalex: can you run requestsync from the box you use right now for IRC?09:38
dupondjegdm bit broken atm in Natty ?09:41
nucc1"pbuilder-dist <release> build ../<package>_<version>.dsc" is there some way to make this command take advantage of multiple cpu cores?  it seems to be doing only one thread09:55
gesernucc1: does the package support parallel building?09:57
nucc1geser, i'm not sure, and i don't know how to find that out09:58
nucc1when building from tarballs, i normally run make -j2 and that does the trick09:59
nucc1the package is 'evolution'09:59
gesernucc1: check the packaging if it does something similar09:59
nucc1packaging?10:00
geserthe files in the debian/ directory10:00
gesermore specific debian/rules10:00
nucc1geser, i could add -j2 to the #! /usr/bin/make -f on the first line?10:03
aalexgeser, no, I get that error E: Could not connect to fiordland.ubuntu.com:25: No route to host (113)10:03
aalexgeser, maybe I can change the server?10:04
gesernucc1: don't know if that would work10:04
nucc1if it supports parallel building, what would i have found in the file?10:05
gesernucc1: packages supporting it, check the value of "parallel" from the DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS env variable and use this for -jX10:06
geseraalex: you can use DEBSMTP to specify a different smtp server10:07
aalexgeser, ok. thanks10:08
geseraalex: what about the patch the Ubuntu package of "toonloop" has? and I've tried to build 2.0.4 in Ubuntu natty and it fails to build10:08
aalexgeser, does it need libboost-system, maybe? I fixed it upstream... need to test it on natty first I guess.10:11
aalexgeser, I can use pbuilder for that on a maverick box?10:12
geseraalex: yes, you can setup a natty pbuilder on maverick10:12
aalexgeser, I'll make sure to test it on natty first, next I'll upload it to debian, and then ask for the sync10:13
aalex(I'm also upstream)10:13
geseraalex: the error is "configure: error: libstk is not installed: alsa"10:14
aalexoh10:14
geseraalex: http://paste.ubuntu.com/554658/ (from config.log)10:15
geserthe problem is the "-lstk" before the conftest.cpp; this order doesn't with "ld --as-needed" anymore. You should be able to reproduce this with "binutils-gold" in Debian10:16
aalexgeser, But libstk0-dev is on natty too. http://packages.ubuntu.com/natty/libstk0-dev10:16
geseraalex: not the build-dependency is the issue, but configure.ac; you put "-lstk" into LDFLAGS instead of LIBS10:18
aalexgeser, is there a patch?10:19
gesergive me a minute10:19
aalexgeser, great :)10:25
geseraalex: http://paste.ubuntu.com/554663/ is needed to get past configure and to start building10:25
nucc1geser, is there a shorter means to testing the changes i've made to a package? having to build a .deb and install is quite a long process10:26
geseraalex: but it fails later with a linking error about boost_system10:26
aalexgeser, yeah... that's fixed in both upstream and the ubuntu package10:26
aalexhere is my fix: http://github.com/aalex/toonloop/commit/750bd649c12e4e23c768b8eec602c950c5af385810:27
gesernucc1: not that I know of if you change source code (ccache might speed up the compilation)10:28
aalexgeser, so, I should put "-lstk" in LIBS, not LDFLAGS?10:33
geseryes10:33
geserwith "ld --as-needed" (which natty uses by default) the linking order matters: a library gets only linked in when an object file *before* it on the command line uses one of its symbols10:35
aalexoh10:35
geserif you put "-lstk" into LDFLAGS it gets put before the object file (here: conftest.cpp) while LIBS are put after it by configure10:36
aalexgeser, http://paste.debian.net/104729/ ?10:36
geseryes10:37
aalex geser: thanks a lot! I'll make a new upstream release and try it on natty later on.10:38
aalexthis could have been done with quilt, but anyways... I'm also upstream, so let's use it.10:40
geserbryceh: if I try the new X stack from xorg-edgers, can I keep updating from it once it landed in natty or will I have to manually "upgrade" to the official packages?10:42
nucc1geser, how can i build the associated dbg packages?10:51
geserevolution-dbg? this one you should get automatically as it's part of the package building process10:53
nucc1yea, i can't find it in the pbuilder directory where the .deb packages are10:54
nucc1ah, seen it.10:54
aalexgeser, Fixed and released: http://github.com/aalex/toonloop/commit/cce7f7d4f346c47ddbf9c2e07c6aeac92bea634110:54

cxoThere is a "liblastfm0" package provided on ubuntu. Its the (now) official last.fm backed library that uses Nokia QT. I wrote a lastfm library in pure C and I want to package it for Ubuntu. What do i call it?22:38
cxoOh do i need to be in #ubuntu-app-devel?22:39
Tm_Tcxo: you mean Qt?22:40
Tm_Tcxo: and you can call it anything you like, as long as it's not "liblastfm"22:41
cxoHow annoying22:42
cxoI wonder if i asked nicely if they would rename theirs to libqt-lastfm22:43
cxoSo I have no idea what to call it now. Any suggestions?22:43
Tm_Tliblastfm-c (;22:44
cxoliblastfmlib22:44
Tm_Tor to be witty, "libfirstfm"22:44
cxoI remember there used to be a taglib and a libtag., once upon a time22:44
Tm_Ttaglib package is called libtaglib (lib prefix for library package)22:45
Tm_Tor something22:45
cxoThe reason i wrote my own implementation is because having to pull in qt for just one silly lib is such drag for people who use gnome22:46
cxohttp://liblastfm.sourceforge.net/22:47
cxoI have the name on launchpad actually22:47
=== lan3y is now known as Laney
cxoTm_T, in terms of packaging. Can i include a "breaks:" param in the control file to say its not compatible with the other library?22:49
Tm_Terr, I see no point having it to break the other library22:50
Tm_Tactually, you have to make sure it doesn't break it22:52
cxoIs there an easy apt-trick way to find out which apps in the repo actually use that library?22:57
Tm_Tapt-cache rdepends liblastfm023:01
cxoSo its basically used for one QT/KDE app - Amarok23:02
cxoNo surprising. Unless you're writing a QT app, no point on using that library.23:03
cxos/No/Not/23:03
Tm_Tstill you must avoid breaking it, installing your library should never break other apps unless it's absolutely necessary23:04
cxoYeah. I'm going to ask them to change their library name to reflect the toolkit bias23:06
cxoThanks for the help23:08

cxoOh interesting. Don't like Amarok?23:50
micahgcxo: Dropped it a while back when I needed ipod support23:50
cxoIt would be nice to have something like libipod (or whatever its called) hooked into nautilus, so every media player doesnt have to duplicate the code23:53
micahgcxo: there's libgpod23:54
cxoIf you're not too busy, I'd like to see what banshee looks like on Xubuntu. Can you post a screenshot?23:55
