| wildintellect | is there a script somewhere that is used to build the xubuntu release from an ubuntu release? | 03:59 |
|---|---|---|
| wildintellect | or is it done by hand | 04:00 |
| micahg | wildintellect: I believe there's a seed that's used to generate the CDs, it's a similar process to the ones to generate Ubuntu releases | 04:02 |
| wildintellect | I'm reading https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization which someone pointed me to once but now I'm trying to automate it and can't really seem to find the a tool/script that automates | 04:03 |
| micahg | I've never done that before, but that page looks pretty thorough in terms of teh process | 04:04 |
| wildintellect | looks like the seed process you mentioned is a little different | 04:05 |
| micahg | right, the two aren't the same | 04:07 |
| wildintellect | I need to figure out which one is easier to automate, as I'm trying to do auto builds once a week of a Xubuntu derivative | 04:10 |
| micahg | wildintellect: don't we already have daily builds? | 04:10 |
| wildintellect | I'm making a LiveCD distro with a lot of additional packages | 04:10 |
| wildintellect | so much it's actually a DVD | 04:10 |
| micahg | ah | 04:10 |
| wildintellect | right now I use remastersys to make the final iso | 04:11 |
| wildintellect | but I'm not super happy with that method | 04:11 |
| micahg | wildintellect: idk I haven't done this yet | 04:11 |
| wildintellect | It also doesn't install very well | 04:11 |
| wildintellect | all sorts of quirks | 04:11 |
| wildintellect | any docs on the daily builds? | 04:12 |
| wildintellect | well I doubt the daily builds include the LiveCD variant | 04:12 |
| micahg | yeah, they have a live version of the dailies | 04:15 |
| wildintellect | do you know where those are? maybe I can track down the tool used to generate those | 04:16 |
| j1mc | cdimage.ubuntu.com | 04:16 |
| micahg | wildintellect: I believe it's built into LP, there's a plan to allow derivatives to build CDs on demand at some point | 04:17 |
| slooksterpsv | Hi all, couple of questions, I'd like to try and compile xfce 4.8 to put it up on a PPA on launchpad, but I'm unsure of a couple of things: 1 - do I use the prefix of /usr /usr/local etc... 2 - do I need to use checkinstall; I think that's it | 05:15 |
| micahg | slooksterpsv: Launchpad only takes source uploads, so checkinstall won't help | 05:29 |
| slooksterpsv | oh ok | 05:29 |
| === j1mc is now known as j1mcZZzzzZZZZzzz | ||
| slooksterpsv | question, do I need to compile and install thunar vfs, I'm not seeing that it's a requirement to build xfce 4.8 on the building page | 06:07 |
| slooksterpsv | ok question again, I got it all built it works, except, it put all the /etc files in /usr/etc - I built everything using --prefix=/usr - per building instructions, should I not have or... what did I do or didn't do? | 06:20 |
| Gazzy | hi | 14:44 |
| Gazzy | damn bot | 14:49 |
