| jzacsh | might someone take a look at this post? I've no where else to post it, now that launchpad.net/ubuntu has its bugs locked down to process via `apport-bug` -- http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=10359461#post10359461 | 03:00 |
|---|---|---|
| micahg | jzacsh: you might want to ask on #ubuntu-server, but it would probably be better to file a bug against php5 for the first issue, not sure for the second | 03:04 |
| jzacsh | micahg: there's already a bug (mentioned in my post) on php | 03:06 |
| jzacsh | s/php/php.net/ | 03:06 |
| atrus | jzacsh: why not just run 'ubuntu-bug <package-name'? | 03:06 |
| atrus | jzacsh: er, why not just run 'ubuntu-bug <package-name>'? | 03:06 |
| atrus | do it with one of those packages, then label it as effecting the other ones too. | 03:06 |
| jzacsh | atrus: which package? | 03:06 |
| jzacsh | php? | 03:06 |
| micahg | jzacsh: yes, but you said it's an ubuntu issue, therefore, we need a bug on launchpad for the server team to triage | 03:07 |
| micahg | jzacsh: php5 | 03:07 |
| atrus | that's the best way to get the developers looking at it, and to allow the developers to ask you follow-up questions to investigate | 03:07 |
| jzacsh | i'd _love_ to have something on launchpad -- i just felt it defeated the purpose of apport-bug if i just bypassed it and mad ea wild guess without digging | 03:08 |
| jzacsh | but, i'll go right ahead and do that. | 03:08 |
| jzacsh | (i say this, because i don't thin kit has anything to do with php) | 03:08 |
| micahg | jzacsh: you should either talk to the server team in #ubuntu-server or file a bug | 03:11 |
| jzacsh | micahg: thanks | 03:11 |

| paultag | c2tarun: send in a patch on the bug | 15:13 |
| seb128 | c2tarun, hi, add your patch to the upstream bug | 15:13 |
| paultag | c2tarun: then add the have patch tag | 15:13 |
| c2tarun | how to do that :( | 15:13 |
| paultag | +1 seb128 | 15:13 |
| paultag | c2tarun: make a patch? | 15:14 |
| paultag | yeah, that's empathy | 15:14 |
| paultag | c2tarun: send it to bugs.gnome | 15:14 |
| c2tarun | paultag: OK, is there any tutorial available on making patch? | 15:14 |
| paultag | c2tarun: man diff | 15:14 |
| c2tarun | ok | 15:14 |
| paultag | you can diff two directories, but i'd not do it that way c2tarun | 15:14 |
| paultag | make the change in their vcs and send a patch back, if it's git, otherwise do something else smart | 15:15 |
| paultag | git format-patch, or git diff | 15:15 |
| paultag | c2tarun: http://live.gnome.org/Empathy/Git | 15:15 |
| paultag | c2tarun: see bottom 3 points :) | 15:16 |
| c2tarun | paultag: I am very sorry to say, its my first time. Is there any detailed tutorial on how to fix bugs :( | 15:16 |
| paultag | c2tarun: have you patched the sourc ecode? | 15:16 |
| paultag | source code * | 15:16 |
| paultag | c2tarun: clone the repo, make your changes, run `git status', then `git add path/to/file', then `git commit', rebase the changes and send the patch to the bug tracker ;) | 15:17 |
| c2tarun | paultag: i just downloaded the source code by 'apt-get source empathy' and then made the changes in the source code and nothing else | 15:17 |
| paultag | c2tarun: ah, use git clone in this case :) | 15:17 |
| paultag | c2tarun: since you're not patching the ubuntu code, but the upstream devel source | 15:17 |
| c2tarun | sorry but what is git? | 15:18 |
| paultag | c2tarun: a version control system | 15:18 |
| paultag | !git | 15:18 |
| ubot2 | Git is a distributed revision control/software code management project created by Linus Torvalds. For more information, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Git_(software) | 15:18 |
| c2tarun | paultag: i tried to get more info on git by 'man git' but i got the message 'No manual entry for git | 15:22 |
| paultag | c2tarun: sudo apt-get install git-core | 15:23 |
| paultag | c2tarun: man git will work after that | 15:23 |
| c2tarun | paultag: git is a revision control system, what is the function of revision control system? | 15:27 |
| paultag | c2tarun: let's say you work on the code, who has the current version of the code? | 15:28 |
| paultag | c2tarun: if it's you, how can you show this? you can't. It's like keeping a directory of old versions in a folder, you can move around in them, and work on the code base without risking anything | 15:29 |
| paultag | c2tarun: it's to aid in collaboration and help avoid mistakes | 15:29 |
| paultag | c2tarun: you can learn more on wikipedia, want me to find the article? | 15:29 |
| paultag | nvmd, it's handy -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Revision_control | 15:30 |
| paultag | BBL | 15:31 |
| c2tarun | paultag: Ok, now I am getting little bit what is git. Can you please help me in using it? | 15:40 |
| JackyAlcine | c2tarun: Have you ever used a CVS system before? | 15:42 |
| c2tarun | JackyAlcine: nope | 15:44 |
| JackyAlcine | Hm, well, nonetheless I recommend you look at RabbitCVS. | 15:45 |
| JackyAlcine | It's a GUI frontend for GUI that integrates itself into Nautilus (assuming Ubuntu's your distro) and makes your life a bit easier with Git. | 15:46 |
| c2tarun | ok, let me try | 15:46 |
| JackyAlcine | c2tarun: You can find more information about it on http://webup8.org/ | 15:50 |
