bdrungtumbleweed: libkibi released.00:00
micahghighvoltage: sorry about calibre, I should've checked with you before updating05:03
micahghighvoltage: I'll try to get it fixed05:03
* micahg didn't realized it was seeded05:03
mase_wki am trying to build a package of dovecot using sudo sbuild --arch=i386 -d lucid dovecot_2.0.9.dsc06:19
mase_wkE: 10mount: mount: unknown filesystem type 'aufs'06:20
akheronhow do I assign a Launcpad bug to Lucid?06:30
micahgakheron: nominate for release?06:30
akheronhmm, I've seen that link but cannot find it in this bug06:31
micahgakheron: bug #?06:32
akheronbug 65739406:32
ubottuLaunchpad bug 657394 in encfs (Ubuntu Maverick) "please sync encfs 1.7.2 from debian unstable - security vulnerabilities" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/65739406:32
micahgakheron: we can't sync a new version for security fixes for the stable release, so you might want to update the title to what you want to fix06:34
akherontrue06:35
micahgakheron: it's now nominate for series, not release06:35
mase_wkis there another way of building a package for lucid on maverick ?06:36
micahgmase_wk: pbuilder, sbuild, chroot?06:36
mase_wkaside from sbuild -d maverick-i386 packaging_dovecot2/dovecot_2.0.9.dsc06:36
akheronreading the security team update procedures, it seems to me that these vulnerabilities aren't grave enough to get a security update06:36
mase_wkmicahg: having an issue with sbuild not understanding a 'aufs' file system06:36
akheronmase_wk: pbuilder-dist maverick create; pbuilder-dist maverick build packaging_dovecot2/dovecot_2.0.9.dsc06:37
micahgakheron: if you provide debdiffs, the security team will be happy to upload06:37
mase_wkakheron: do i need arch specified at all , i want to make an i386 package on an 64bit install06:37
akheronmicahg: yes but as lucid has 1.5 and the bugs have been fixed in 1.7, I'd have to do lots of patching06:37
akheronerr, backport the patches that fix the security issues06:38
micahgakheron: right06:38
micahgakheron: I can give you a lucid task if you want to work on it06:38
akheronmicahg: well, I don't think I have time really :(06:39
akheronmase_wk: pbuilder-dist maverick i386 create; etc...06:39
mase_wkthanks   will try that06:40
akheronmicahg: easier for me would be to just use try to use the natty package in lucid or backport 1.7 and build it myself06:40
micahgakheron: right, that fixes it for you, but not others06:41
akheronyep :(06:41

highvoltagedholbach: the last time we communicated was the email he sent us on 05/01/1115:03
dholbachhighvoltage, ok - I just thought you might know more - it seems like everyhting in the NEW queue was processed and there's just this one package left that bundles some other code15:04
dholbachit'd be great to get it sorted out soon15:05
menesisdholbach, highvoltage: hello15:15
menesisthank you both for uploading all of the packages15:15
menesisthey reached archive last Monday15:15
menesisthere is only one left, zope.html, that bundles both fckeditor and ckeditor15:16
dholbachmenesis, is it possible to rip it out of the source, add dependencies and add symlinks in the zope.html package to make it "just work"?15:16
menesisit was kind of hard for me to figure when and from where to remove it15:17
dholbachyeah, doing that is a pain :/15:17
menesisis it ok to "rm src/whatever" and then dh_install?15:17
dholbachI'd probably set up a get-orig-source target that sets up a tarball that does not include that source15:18
tumbleweedif it's redistributable, it may not be necessary to rip it out the source (unless you are already doing a +dfsg)15:18
menesislicense is ok, GPL/LGPL/MPL15:20
menesiswill try to make it work now15:26
menesisremove is one thing but have to symlink as well, so repackaging alone won't help15:26
tumbleweedmenesis: dh_link makes the symlinks easy enough. Given that it's redistributable, I wouldn't bother repacking, just remove those files before dh_auto_install (assuming dh)15:31
tumbleweedlonger term, it may be worthwhile convincing the upsrteam to bundle less :)15:32
micahgtumbleweed: usually better to ask for a flag to use system versions of things15:32
micahgupstreams feel the need to provide everything15:33
menesisoverride_dh_auto_install: rm -r src/.../ckeditor ; dh_auto_install15:33

menesisbzr-builddeb builds in temp directory so should be good15:33
tumbleweedmenesis: what build system? will it fail when it tries to install the deleted files?15:34
menesisdh --with python-central15:34
tumbleweedmenesis: you can't rely on that behavior, but if files aren't needed at any point, that's fine, dpkg-source understands missing files15:34
tumbleweedmenesis: I mean, is it a setup.py?15:35
menesisyes15:35
tumbleweederr python-central? I'd avoid that for new packages?15:35
tumbleweedthe setup.py / MANIFEST.in will have a list of files in it to install, if they are deleted, it may not work so well (depending on how the list is implemented)15:36
tumbleweedin that case, patching setup.py is a reasonable option15:36

stevecrozzhow do I send a package to launchpad for building on a distribution that I'm not running?17:53
stevecrozzi've been using 'bzr builddeb -S', do I just specify the distro I want in debian/changelog?17:55
micahgstevecrozz: yes18:03
stevecrozzmicahg: i'm maintaining the package source in launchpad, if I want to build the package for multiple distributions, what do I commit to bzr in my debian/changes to allow that18:16
micahgstevecrozz: you might want to use Launchpad build recipies for that, or there's a tool someone built called drobotik: https://launchpad.net/drobotik18:18

matttbeHello22:59
matttbeI'm looking for a sponsor in order to merge my branch lp:~cairo-dock-team/cairo-dock-plug-ins/ubuntu into lp:ubuntu/cairo-dock-plug-ins22:59
matttbe=> https://code.launchpad.net/~cairo-dock-team/cairo-dock-plug-ins/ubuntu/+merge/4666822:59
matttbeBut this is not my main request. I also want to note that this branch "lp:ubuntu/cairo-dock-plug-ins" is not up to date.23:00
matttbeWho can help me to fix this problem and/or what can I do?23:00
micahgmatttbe: it's a UDD bug23:01
matttbeDo I have to contact the ubuntu-branches team?23:01
micahgmatttbe: http://package-import.ubuntu.com/status/cairo-dock-plug-ins.html#2010-04-22%2002:11:14.82404123:01
micahgmatttbe: you can file a bug at https://launchpad.net/udd23:01
matttbemicahg: thank you! :)23:02
stevecrozzI want to propose this package be included in ubuntu (https://launchpad.net/~uwsgi/+archive/release/+packages), should I go over it with someone first? or should I just make the proposal?23:02
micahgstevecrozz: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/NewPackages23:03
kamalhello MOTU's ...  its been awhile since I've done a LP/bzr merge proposal.  is this properly queued?:23:05
kamalhttps://code.launchpad.net/~kamalmostafa/ubuntu/natty/alarm-clock-applet/lp704659/+merge/4670523:05
kamaland is it proper that I assigned the bug LP #704569 to ubuntu-sponsors ?23:05
stevecrozzmicahg: the maintainer of the proposed debian package has decided the ubuntu package should be maintained separately to account for separate packaging needs, i think that means I'm in the 'Going through MOTU' section of this document23:05
ubottuLaunchpad bug 704569 in iscsitarget (Ubuntu) "ISCSI Reservation Conflicts with VMWare" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/70456923:05
kamaloops make that bug LP: #70465923:05
ebroderkamal: bugs should never be *assigned* to ~ubuntu-sponsors. if you attach a debdiff you should subscribe ~u-s, but if you have a merge proposal you should not23:06
kamalebroder: oops -- glad I asked -- who should the bug be assigned to?23:06
ebroderkamal: nobody23:06
micahgstevecrozz: shouldn't need to do that23:07
ebroderkamal: (opening a proposal to merge a branch into one of the lp:ubuntu/ branches automatically causes that to show up on the sponsorship queue; additionally subscribing ~u-s to the bug causes it to show up twice)23:07
stevecrozzmacahg: can you elaborate? do you mean the package should be maintained upstream with debian?23:07
kamalebroder: got it, thanks much23:08
micahgstevecrozz: ideally, yes, do you have a link to where the Debian maintainer said that23:08
kamalebroder: oh I see -- I had confused "subscribing" and "assigning" ... *sigh* it has been awhile.23:08
stevecrozzmicahg: he said it in an email to me, i can forward that to you if you like, it was pretty informal23:08
micahgstevecrozz: no, that's ok, it's not even in Debian yet23:09
micahgstevecrozz: what changes are necessary?  we can maintain a diff if necessary, but there shouldn't need to be many23:09
stevecrozzmicahg: i'm not entirely sure, maybe i can get leonid in here later and we can discuss the differences23:10
stevecrozzi want to organize some kind of communication here so we don't miss any more releases, its already been 2 or 3 since i started maintaining a ppa for this package23:11
stevecrozzmicahg: the document says i need this package signed off on by two ubuntu developers, how can I find them?23:17
micahgstevecrozz: well, we still have a month until feature freeze, but you need to upload to revu, it would be better to sync from Debian and add changes on top23:18
stevecrozzmicahg: ok I'll sync with the owner of the proposed debian package and try to figure out if we can get it included in debian23:23
micahgstevecrozz: just keep in mind, Feb 24 is the cut off for new packages unless there's a really good reason23:24
stevecrozzyeah i doubt i'll make the cutoff, i just want to get some forward momentum because this package is useful and its getting nowhere fast as far as official packaging23:27
micahgstevecrozz: well, if you won't make the cutoff you can try to go through revu, it would just be easier if it's maintained in Debian, once it's in, we can sync from Debian after that23:29
stevecrozzmicahg: so i can propose the package with the thought of maintaining them separately only until it makes it into debian?23:31
micahgstevecrozz: yes23:31
stevecrozzsounds reasonable, thanks, i'll get started23:32
