[03:59] <wildintellect> is there a script somewhere that is used to build the xubuntu release from an ubuntu release?
[04:00] <wildintellect> or is it done by hand
[04:02] <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
[04:03] <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
[04:04] <micahg> I've never done that before, but that page looks pretty thorough in terms of teh process
[04:05] <wildintellect> looks like the seed process you mentioned is a little different
[04:07] <micahg> right, the two aren't the same
[04:10] <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
[04:11] <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
[04:12] <wildintellect> any docs on the daily builds?
[04:12] <wildintellect> well I doubt the daily builds include the LiveCD variant
[04:15] <micahg> yeah, they have a live version of the dailies
[04:16] <wildintellect> do you know where those are? maybe I can track down the tool used to generate those
[04:16] <j1mc> cdimage.ubuntu.com
[04:17] <micahg> wildintellect: I believe it's built into LP, there's a plan to allow derivatives to build CDs on demand at some point
[05:15] <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
[05:29] <micahg> slooksterpsv: Launchpad only takes source uploads, so checkinstall won't help
[05:29] <slooksterpsv> oh ok
=== j1mc is now known as j1mcZZzzzZZZZzzz
[06:07] <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
[06:20] <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?
[14:44] <Gazzy> hi 
[14:49] <Gazzy> damn bot
