achiangif i say override_dh_auto_build, and pass a -I/path/to/include on the make line, is that additive, in addition to the paths autotools already know about? or does it replace any existing values?19:23

simarHi21:06
simarI have a question.. If I create a chroot using pbuilder-dist for natty like21:06
simar$sudo pbuilder-dist natty create21:07
simarcan I have another chroot pbuilder using say .. pbuilder-dist maverick create and maintain them side by side??21:07
geseryes21:08
ScottKDon't call pbuilder-dist with sudo.  It handles escalation and using sudo when needed.21:08
ScottKBut yes.21:08
simarThanks21:19
simarScottK, But I have already called it with sudo and its building my enviroment for natty. I hope it will not cause any harm..??21:20
simarI used this sudo pbuilder-dist natty create21:21
ScottKsimar: Should be fine, but it's not the best way to do it.21:21
ScottKpbuilder-dist natty create would have worked too.21:21
simarScottK, ok, so I will try this in future .. and for the one that I'm going to build for maverick..21:22
simarScottK, But do I need to rebuild for natty or it will work for my purpose. i'm a beginner21:22
ScottKsimar: I think it will.  Worst case it puts some files in the wrong place and you have to move them a bit.21:23
ScottKYou won't need to redo it.21:23
simarScottK, ok I will hope it will work.. if it don't I will ping you then..21:24
simarScottK, Thanks for help :))21:24
ari-tczewsiretart: I have prepared a patch for you - libva ;-)23:13
broderi'm putting my first dep-5 copyright file together. there's a COPYING file at the top-level. most files have copyright/license headers (that match the COPYING file), but a few short ones don't. i know the author and know that his intent was for the COPYING file to apply to all files. can i just do a single Files: * block?23:19
broderalso, did the papercuts guys (vish?) ever come up with guidelines on how package descriptions should be written?23:30
persiabroder, When dealing with that sort of thing, I usually make an estimate about whether the content of a file is worth copyrighting (short files without expression may not be).23:34
persiaIf it is, best to get upstream to fix it (people failing to add copyright/licensing information to XML is the most common case I see).23:34
persiaIn the case of autotools files, I've seen a number of folk add extra clauses to a DEP-5 copyright.23:35
persiaBut the important thing is that you are representing the state of the files *as they are published*, rather than by a guess at author intent (some folk embed email from authors in debian/copyright to clarify things).23:35
persiaAnd that requirement isn't different between DEP-5 and other types of debian/copyright files.23:36
