[03:00] <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
[03:04] <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
[03:06] <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?
[03:07] <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
[03:08] <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)
[03:11] <micahg> jzacsh: you should either talk to the server team in #ubuntu-server or file a bug
[03:11] <jzacsh> micahg: thanks
[09:45] <hrw> hi
[09:45] <hrw> can someoe mark bug 706838 as triaged? I confirmed it, assigned to me and know what issue is

[11:26] <hrw> nevermind, marked as in progress
[14:32] <c2tarun> I want to work on bug 512761. I made the required changes in the source code, now what should I do?

[15:13] <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
[15:14] <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
[15:15] <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
[15:16] <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 *
[15:17] <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
[15:18] <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)
[15:22] <c2tarun> paultag: i tried to get more info on git by 'man git' but i got the message 'No manual entry for git
[15:23] <paultag> c2tarun: sudo apt-get install git-core
[15:23] <paultag> c2tarun: man git will work after that
[15:27] <c2tarun> paultag: git is a revision control system, what is the function of revision control system?
[15:28] <paultag> c2tarun: let's say you work on the code, who has the current version of the code?
[15:29] <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?
[15:30] <paultag> nvmd, it's handy -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Revision_control

[15:40] <c2tarun> paultag: Ok, now I am getting little bit what is git. Can you please help me in using it?
[15:42] <JackyAlcine> c2tarun: Have you ever used a CVS system before?
[15:44] <c2tarun> JackyAlcine: nope
[15:45] <JackyAlcine> Hm, well, nonetheless I recommend you look at RabbitCVS.
[15:46] <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
[15:50] <JackyAlcine> c2tarun: You can find more information about it on http://webup8.org/
