[00:00] <tumbleweed> bdrung: I'm keen to, I don't see what it adds, and it saves me a bunch of work :)
[00:00] <Laney> people probably use it
[00:00] <bdrung> tumbleweed: may i ask you to send a mail to the mailing list and ask if someone wants to keep it?
[00:00] <Laney> you should deprecate it for a release or so first I guess
[00:01] <micahg> kamal: BTW, there should be a trash can on the top right of the merge proposal to delete it
[00:01] <tumbleweed> is it compatible enough that we can ship a wrapper around pbuilder-dist that emits the deprecation warning?
[00:02] <tumbleweed> that's probably more pain than it's worth, though
[00:03] <kamal> micahg: yes, just a shame that deleting it also trashes the comments.  thanks.
[00:04] <micahg> kamal: you should have copies in your e-mail ;)
[00:05] <kamal> micahg: oh, no shortage of LP email in my box!  ;-)
[00:05] <bdrung> kamal: there used to be "rejected"
[00:05] <micahg> kamal: I actual filter based on type of LP e-mail, that might be helpful

[01:53] <ari-tczew> Rcart: It's OK.

[01:54] <ari-tczew> Rcart: You're welcome.
[02:07] <Rcart> ari-tczew: debcommit Depends on cvs? When i run debcommit, returns this: Can't exec "cvs": Not exist such a file nor a dir at /usr/bin/debcommit line 722.
[02:10] <ari-tczew> Rcart: debcommit is a part of binary package devscripts.
[02:11] <ari-tczew> It doesn't depends on cvs.
[02:15] <Rcart> ari-tczew: what could be wrong when i try to run it?
[02:16] <ari-tczew> Rcart: did you try to install cvs then?
[02:22] <Rcart> ari-tczew: this is really rare, i've installed cvs and after run debcommit and is asking for a login passoword to an unknow host: theshadow@cvs.degreez.net's password:
[02:23] <Rcart> password*
[02:23] <ari-tczew> Rcart: sorry, I'm not familiar with debcommit
[02:28] <Rcart> ari-tczew: Thanks again. I'll google it a little more.
[02:31] <achiang> Rcart: does your package use cvs?
[02:32] <achiang> Rcart: looks like debcommit can speak to multiple SCMs, so i bet it found a .cvs in your working directory and is trying to do something with it
[02:32] <Rcart> achiang: No, it uses bazaar
[02:33] <jmarsden> Rcart: Are you 100% sure there is no .cvs directory being seen by debcommit?
[02:34] <Rcart> jmarsden: look the ls -la output: http://pastebin.com/0Wepnxua
[02:35] <Rcart> there's a CVS and a .bzr dir
[02:35] <jmarsden> CVS will trigger it.
[02:36] <jmarsden> You can see what it checks for in the getprog function within debcommit.
[02:36] <jmarsden> remove the CVS directory and I think all will be well.
[02:39] <Rcart> jmarsden: i'm looking in debcommit and firts checks for the CVS dir and then the .bzr  dir (among others)
[02:40] <jmarsden> Right, so kill the CVS and it will see the .bzr and do what you want.  Right?
[02:40] <jmarsden> Rcart: Or, if you prefer, swap the order of the tests around in debcommit so it picks .bzr even if CVS exists :)
[02:42] <Rcart> jmarsden: Nice tip, but with the last, the package will be with the same problem at other times, right?
[02:43] <jmarsden> Correct.  The real question is how or why a package would ever have both CVS and .bzr at the same time, it makes no sense to me.
[02:43] <jmarsden> Maybe they used to use CVS, migrated to bzr and forgot to remove the old cvs-relatred dirs from their source tree?
[02:45] <Rcart> surely, they also seems to forgot update the debian/patches dir after upgrading from dpatch to quilt
[03:43] <Rcart> I've a lintian warning: out-of-date-standards-version 3.8.4 (current is 3.9.1). Should i update the Standards version field to the 3.9.1 ?
[03:44] <paultag> Rcart: if your package is 3.9.1 standard, yeah :)
[03:44] <paultag> Rcart: in most cases this is done without issue
[03:46] <jmarsden> Rcart: Officially you need to read through the change list from the current debian-policy package back to 3.8.4 and ensure you don't need to update stuff to meet 3.9.1
[03:47] <jmarsden> Rcart: See /usr/share/doc/debian-policy/upgrading-checklist.txt.gz   # assuming you have debian-policy installed :)
[03:49] <Rcart> Ok. I'll leave it in 3.8.4 and let someone else who has read the Debian Policy updates to change that field :)
[03:49] <jmarsden> Rcart: http://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/upgrading-checklist.txt   # is may well be more current than the local one you have.
[03:49] <paultag> Rcart: no, you should upgrade
[03:50] <paultag> Rcart: but you need to be sure that you're 3.9.1. standard :)
[03:50] <paultag> Rcart: there's no reason to keep it that old :)
[03:50] <Rcart> Ok. Reading the debian policy updates :)
[04:21] <Rcart> Looks like no changes for this package. The control file (most relevant) seems to fit the standards. I hope not to be wrong (:

[18:02] <geser> as libqt4-webkit is a transitional package you could also replace it with "libqtwebkit4 (>= 2.0~)" which is in main

[19:48] <vanguard> paultag: what is the right place for opt?
[19:48] <paultag> vanguard: it's OK when you're installing by hand, from someone
[19:48] <vanguard> okay, then it is clear
[19:48] <paultag> vanguard: optional software under certen conditions and blah blah.
[19:48] <paultag> vanguard: it's in the FHS, there's a format too, /opt/company/project or something like that
[19:49] <paultag> it's also a pain to set up a way to put it in your path, because you have to go into /opt/*/*/bin/*

[19:50] <MTecknology> paultag: ya, but fixing the bugs and getting the nginx-common is a pain in the butt
[19:50] <paultag> vanguard: and since debs are getting installed by superuser by the software vender of the OS, I think they have to be installed into a "bigboy" place, so not /usr/local or anything like that
[19:50] <paultag> MTecknology: yeah for sure
[19:50] <paultag> but I'm not sure about that, I could be wrong
[19:51] <MTecknology> bigboy place?
[19:51] <paultag> Heck, I'm not even MOTU.
[19:51] <paultag> MTecknology: /usr/bin and not /usr/local/bin
[19:51] <vanguard> paultag: I think that I should put my .jar into /usr/share/java/ and put a simple shellscript into /usr/bin?
[19:51] <paultag> MTecknology: local is for locally compiled or created software IIRC
[19:51] <paultag> vanguard: that sounds much more sane
[19:51] <paultag> vanguard: :)
[19:52] <vanguard> paultag: let me check out what lintian says about that. It is like an epic battle with a dragon or so :D
[19:52] <MTecknology> paultag: it's the term that made me laught
[19:52] <MTecknology> laugh*
[19:52] <paultag> vanguard: FTI -- http://www.pathname.com/fhs/2.2/fhs-3.12.html
[19:52] <paultag> MTecknology: hahaha, glad to get a chortle :)
[19:52] <paultag> vanguard: for sure :)
[19:57] <MTecknology> paultag: oh.. when i automated server setups.. part of the script did rmdir /usr/local/sbin && bzr branch [...] /usr/local/sbin
[19:57] <paultag> MTecknology: wait, what?!
[19:57] <paultag> MTecknology: why? That's really not smart
[19:58] <MTecknology> why's that?
[19:58] <paultag> MTecknology: 1) if they're similinks, you've missed the reason to have sbin. If they're binaries, you're a) storing a binary in VCS, so wasting space, and b) klobbering the package manager
[19:59] <paultag> If they're binaries was 2)
[19:59] <paultag> MTecknology: is if a package changes it's .so set, you can have another abi
[19:59] <MTecknology> they were scripts
[19:59] <paultag> MTecknology: ... so?!
[19:59] <paultag> MTecknology: just make a meta-package
[20:00] <paultag> MTecknology: there's no reason to use bzr for that
[20:00] <MTecknology> they were frequently changing; mostly just backup scripts and maintenance junk
[20:01] <MTecknology> I'm sure I could have picked a better directory; but the point was that it was /usr/local/
=== hanska is now known as dapal
[20:02] <paultag> MTecknology: still dude, metapackages at the least
[20:02] <paultag> MTecknology: it hurts my soul
[20:02] <MTecknology> metapackage for scripts?
[20:02] <MTecknology> for very frequently changing scripts*
[20:02] <paultag> MTecknology: package up the scripts, and make a mtecknology-server metapackage or something
[20:02] <paultag> MTecknology: yes, just publish to a local repo
[20:02] <paultag> MTecknology: then you can just update && upgrade the boxes
[20:03] <paultag> MTecknology: it's wicked easy to make them native, even
[20:03] <paultag> </rant>
[20:04] <MTecknology> :P
[20:05] <paultag> BBL, heading home :)
[20:05] <vanguard> lintians says debhelper-but-no-misc-depends
[20:05] <vanguard> but debuild tells me dpkg-source: Warnung: kann Abhängigkeit ${misc:Depends} nicht auswerten (cannot compile)
[20:05] <vanguard> what do I do now?
[20:05] <vanguard> at least the fatal error is at line 1337 ...
[20:06] <MTecknology> vanguard: GR!
[20:06] <vanguard> I don't understand
[20:07] <MTecknology> vanguard: sorry, not sure why I added your nick there, was supposed to be just an expression of irritation to the channel
[20:09] <MTecknology> I want to install a man page.. nginx.1; I want it to be part of the nginx-common package only; how do I make that happen?
[20:15] <vanguard> launchpad has accepted my tinkered package
[20:15]  * vanguard treats himself with a yogurth now :D
[20:17] <wgrant> Start the DAy
[20:17] <wgrant> Gah.
[20:18] <ari-tczew> wgrant: hello wgrant. Did you adjust UDD FTBFS script?
[20:18] <wgrant> ari-tczew: I don't touch UDD.
[20:22] <ari-tczew> wgrant: why? last time when I asked you, you said that it's possible
[20:23] <wgrant> ari-tczew: What's the URL?
[20:24] <ari-tczew> wgrant: of FTBFS script?
[20:24] <vanguard> how do I add an icon to a package?
[20:24] <wgrant> I run several FTBFS scripts.
[20:24] <ari-tczew> wgrant: http://udd.debian.org/cgi-bin/ubuntu_ftbfs.cgi
[20:26] <ari-tczew> vanguard: check for source any package, e.g. gwget
[20:26] <wgrant> ari-tczew: That's probably run by lucas.
[20:27] <vanguard> ari-tczew: right, I have to learn what OSS really means ... :D
[20:27] <ari-tczew> wgrant: yes, but sometimes. I guess you have access to server, where you could that script often.
[20:28] <wgrant> No, that's a Debian server. I'm not a DD.
[20:30] <ari-tczew> wgrant: are you Canonical employee?
[20:40] <wgrant> ari-tczew: Yes.
[20:43] <soren> wgrant: orly? Since when?
[20:44] <wgrant> soren: Mid-December.
[20:44] <soren> wgrant: Cool. Congrats!
[20:44] <maco> 'grats
[20:44] <wgrant> Thanks!
[20:45] <wgrant> Currently in Dallas at the LP sprint.
[20:46] <geser> ah, that explains your unusual time when you're on IRC
[20:48] <StevenK> geser: This is wgrant. More unusual, since unusual times on IRC is usual for him.
[20:49] <wgrant> That may change with the reorg, though, given that my team is now western US.
[20:49] <geser> but you still live in Australia or did you move?
[20:49] <wgrant> Still in .au.
[21:01] <ari-tczew> nonix4: w3m from natty builds cleanly on maverick. on lucid doesn't, unfortunately.
[21:37] <scott-work> i've been told qdvdauthor was removed from the repository for natty, does anyone know why?
[21:38] <micahg> scott-work: obsolete is the reason given: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qdvdauthor/+changelog
[21:39] <scott-work> hmmm, curious...thanks micahg
[22:58] <ari-tczew> DktrKranz: shall we remove root-system from Ubuntu, as well?
[23:01] <DktrKranz> ari-tczew: it will be anyway as soon as archive-admins schedule removals from Debian, unless there's a valid reason to keep it around. I don't know what the package is about to judge, though. I just performed actual removal.
[23:01] <DktrKranz> but I'd say go for its removal
[23:03] <ari-tczew> DktrKranz: OK thank you for feedback.   ; ))
[23:04] <DktrKranz> np :)
