| cousteau | there seems to be a problem with an update of the package "upstart" (you're probably already aware, but just in case) | 00:19 |

| psusi | cjwatson, I just found breakage from the dropping of the no 'p' partition separator patch.. the installer is still not using the 'p'. any idea where that code would be? | 00:41 |
| cjwatson | psusi: depends which bit of the installer. most of it should just come from parted. it would be easier to diagnose given a bug with syslog and partman | 00:42 |
| cjwatson | psusi: (we're in incompatible timezones, debugging by IRC probably won't be hugely useful - about to go to bed) | 00:42 |
| psusi | hrm... k... I'll take a look at partman and I'm pretty sure we dropped the patch from parted too, but I'll check | 00:43 |
| cjwatson | we dropped the parted patch, yes | 00:43 |
| cjwatson | there are various bits and pieces where it could be - it would be easier to debug from a log than to try to enumerate them all, I suspect :) | 00:44 |
| psusi | k... I'll take a look at the logs and file a bug | 00:45 |

| achiang | if i'm hacking on a source package and modify debian/control so as not to build a specific binary package, can i simply comment out all the lines in the binary-package.install file, or do i need to remove the .install file completely? | 03:53 |
| broder | achiang: if the package is no longer listed in debian/control, i don't think you have to do anything to the .install file | 03:54 |
| RAOF | You may have to do something to the rules file, if it explicitly references the package you've commented out. | 03:56 |
| achiang | broder: RAOF: both make sense, thank you. :) | 03:58 |
| achiang | RAOF: hm, indeed, there is a reference in the rules file to the udeb | 03:58 |
| Laibsch1 | I've read a bit about the conf file issue. I'm starting to wonder whether the pastebin definitions are config files or not. | 03:59 |
| Laibsch1 | pastebinit has one for per supported pastebin where information is stored how to send text to that pastebin | 04:00 |
| Laibsch1 | these files used to reside in /etc/pastebin.d/ but we're in the process of moving them to /usr/share/pastebin | 04:00 |
| Laibsch1 | are these config files or not? | 04:00 |
| RAOF | If you've installed them under /etc/ then they've been considered dpkg conffiles, and you'll need to do the magic dance. | 04:00 |
| Laibsch1 | I understand that | 04:01 |
| Laibsch1 | But I'm starting to wonder if they are config files (and should stay where they are) or whether they are not config file | 04:01 |
| Laibsch1 | s | 04:01 |
| Laibsch1 | they somehow configure the program | 04:01 |
| RAOF | It depends on how complex you want the program to be. | 04:02 |
| Laibsch1 | hm, what do you mean? | 04:02 |
| Laibsch1 | from the next release, the program will read from both /etc and /usr | 04:02 |
| RAOF | It seems to me that a totally acceptable solution would be to ship the default providers in /usr/share/hello-I'm-a-provider, and allow the user to define new ones in /etc/pastebin.d | 04:02 |
| Laibsch1 | I'm starting to have doubts that this is really the right thing | 04:02 |
| Laibsch1 | OK | 04:02 |
| broder | rich set of defaults + user overrideability is a great model | 04:03 |
| Laibsch1 | RAOF, what you describe is what will ship in the next release | 04:03 |
| achiang | RAOF: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/561246/ -- what do those two lines mean? in the sense that the first line specifies -plibx11-6, but the second line seems to negate it? | 04:03 |
| achiang | RAOF: my confusion stems from the fact that i think the first line should call dh_makeshlibs on the libx11-6 package *and* make it depend on the udeb | 04:03 |
| Laibsch1 | broder: actually, the program reads from three locations /usr/, /etc and dotfile in $HOME | 04:03 |
| broder | Laibsch1: even better in my book :) | 04:04 |
| RAOF | broder: Oh, yes. Xserver configuration is much much nicer now that we can throw snippets into /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d, and have users put stuff in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d to override. | 04:04 |
| Laibsch1 | OK, thanks. So, I will keep this | 04:04 |
| Laibsch1 | now need to figure out the magic dance in a way that is supported in lucid (my main system for all machines) and acceptable for experimental | 04:04 |
| RAOF | achiang: The first says “run makeshlibs on the libx11-6 package”, the second says “run makeshlibs on everything *but* the libx11-6 package”. | 04:04 |
| * Laibsch1 goes back to read the wiki | 04:05 | |
| === Laibsch1 is now known as Laibsch | ||
| broder | Laibsch: if you can test in a pbuilder or schroot and use dpkg-maintscript-helper, that's probably better | 04:06 |
| Laibsch | I still need to have lucid support | 04:06 |
| achiang | RAOF: i see. so if i'm no longer building the udeb, i can just remove the --add-udeb= arg from that line, but still need to keep both lines to run makeshlibs both on the package and *not* on the package? | 04:06 |
| Laibsch | or I will upload a package that I cannot use myself. Now where would the point be in that? ;-) | 04:06 |
| RAOF | achiang: You could also just remove the first line and the “-Nlibx11-6” from the second line. | 04:07 |
| achiang | RAOF: duh. that makes much more sense. thank you | 04:08 |
| achiang | does anyone know if we use libgtk2.0-0-udeb in our installer? or is that just a graphical d-i thing? | 04:33 |
| broder | achiang: to the best of my knowledge, it would be a d-i thing. ubiquity feeds code from udebs into some of its backend stuff, but the runtime environment is all "normal" packages | 04:33 |
| achiang | broder: ok, thank you. i am backporting maverick's libgtk2.0 to lucid, and there are versioned B-D on a bunch of libraries, but they *all* look related to udeb / installer-type things | 04:35 |

| micahg | kees: I also forget most people don't use aptitude which does nice things like tell you not to break your system | 08:06 |

| pitti | micahg: ah, I thought it was in lp:ubuntu-archive-tools, but apparently it's only on cocoplum | 08:11 |
| mvo | micahg: not in the near future, while useful its not easy to find a good UI for this so that its useful for non-powerusers I think | 08:11 |
| micahg | pitti: ah, ok :), is there anything proprietary about it, maybe it could go in one of the tools branches? | 08:12 |
| pitti | micahg: http://people.canonical.com/~pitti/scripts/checkrdepends | 08:12 |
| mvo | micahg: but there are some plans to improve the apt resolver :) | 08:12 |
| micahg | mvo: yeah, I was just thinking about that as well | 08:12 |
| pitti | micahg: no, nothing proprietary, but it is currently written to require a local mirror | 08:12 |
| pitti | micahg: shouldn't be too hard to change it to use urllib.open() instead, though | 08:13 |
| micahg | pitti: ooh, sounds like a nice mini-python project for me to learn on | 08:13 |
| micahg | pitti: thanks | 08:15 |
| micahg | pitti: oh, should I file a metabug to resolve the gcc-4.3 rdepends? | 08:15 |
| pitti | if we want to get rid of it, sure | 08:17 |
| pitti | easier for tracking | 08:17 |
| micahg | pitti: ok, I'll do that then, thanks, BTW, would you be able to accept thunderbird-locales in maverick-proposed? | 08:19 |

| ari-tczew | kklimonda: Thanks. If I'm correct, it says nv with NOVEAU. Odd. | 21:54 |
| ari-tczew | barry: around? | 22:39 |
| barry | ari-tczew: i am | 22:54 |
| ari-tczew | barry: could you look on bug 712136 | 23:00 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 712136 in pymca (Ubuntu) "Please merge pymca 4.4.1p1-1 (universe) from debian unstable (main)" [Wishlist,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/712136 | 23:00 |
| barry | ari-tczew: sure | 23:01 |

| kklimonda | any idea if the new queue for debian is being processed at this time? | 23:09 |
| barry | kklimonda: do you mean syncs from debian? not for natty right now since we're frozen for alpha2, but iirc, even after that it's by request only for the rest of the cycle | 23:12 |
| ari-tczew | I guess kklimonda is thinking about flow of packages in Debian, not natty. | 23:13 |
| * micahg is guessing he means this: http://ftp-master.debian.org/new/ | 23:13 | |
| kklimonda | barry: no, I'm talking about the NEW queue for debian - I'm interested in few packages that are still in their NEW queue and I can see they haven't yet been processed by ftp masters. | 23:13 |
| barry | ah | 23:14 |
| micahg | DktrKranz: ^^^ | 23:14 |
| kklimonda | so I'm wondering if the reason for that is the close proximity to the squeeze release, or are they always being slow :) | 23:14 |
| micahg | kklimonda: before it was said the NEW processing would be slower during the freeze | 23:14 |
| cjwatson | I would expect ftpmasters to have better things to do right now | 23:17 |
| kklimonda | micahg: any idea if I can download packages from the new queue? | 23:17 |
| cjwatson | but it's not long until the release | 23:17 |
| cjwatson | packages in NEW haven't been vetted for redistributability, so I believe Debian would consider it a legal problem to allow you to download things from it | 23:18 |
| ari-tczew | barry: any ideas for my question? | 23:18 |
| barry | 23:19 | |
| barry | ERC> ari-tczew: do you mean "timeout: 255 seconds | 23:19 |
| barry | ERC> ari-tczew: do you mean " | 23:19 |
| * barry curses cut-n-paste | 23:19 | |
| barry | ari-tczew: do you mean "Please get in touch with someone expierence with python to add support for python 2.7." ? | 23:19 |
| ari-tczew | barry: nope, support for python 2.7 in bug 712136 | 23:19 |

| ari-tczew | yes | 23:19 |
| barry | ari-tczew: yep, i'm looking at that right now | 23:20 |

| micahg | barry: are we dropping python 2.6 or keeping it until the next LTS (or no decision yet)? | 23:26 |
| barry | micahg: no decision yet. i did post a message on ubuntu-devel looking for feedback and got radio silence ;) | 23:26 |
| micahg | barry: I remember the Launchpad people were big advocates of keeping it around until the LTS | 23:27 |
| barry | they are :) | 23:27 |
| kklimonda | by until do you mean removing 2.6 in the next LTS, or after LTS? | 23:27 |
| barry | micahg: if you have any thoughts, a follow up on the mlist would be great | 23:27 |
| * kklimonda has some thoughts actually.. | 23:28 | |
| kklimonda | lets see if I can dig the message out of archive :) | 23:28 |
| micahg | barry: unfortunately, I know very little about the python stack, so all I have to contribute is hearsay | 23:28 |
| kklimonda | bah, can't find the email when I need it ;) | 23:30 |
| kklimonda | barry: do you remember the subject of the email about whether to keep python 2.6 or not for the next lts? | 23:31 |
| micahg | barry: I don't see it, was it moderated? | 23:32 |
| kklimonda | I do remember reading it | 23:33 |
| kklimonda | but I can't find it now :) | 23:33 |
| barry | kklimonda: yeah, i can't either! maybe it didn't make it to the list | 23:36 |
| barry | the subject is "Analysis of packages and their Python support" | 23:38 |
| micahg | didn't see it | 23:39 |
| barry | dated 2011-01-24 | 23:39 |
| barry | i don't see it on gmane either. i guess that explains why i haven't gotten any responses :( | 23:40 |
| barry | how very odd. i'm going afk for dinner but i guess i'll resend when i get back | 23:41 |
| kklimonda | hmm.. nothing, but I do remember this topic being brought somewhere and that LP people were advocating keeping python 2.6 around.. maybe it was discussed here? | 23:41 |
| barry | kklimonda: could have been | 23:41 |
| micahg | kklimonda: probably was discussed at UDS as well | 23:42 |
| kklimonda | *nods* also possible | 23:42 |
