abhinav-soren,  sorry for wrongly disturbing you. this stupid xchat does autocompletion whenever it wishes :-/00:34
bryceh_kees, hmm did you put your mountall changes into bzr?00:47
keesbryceh_: there is no bzr tree in debian/control for it. did I miss something?00:48
bryceh_yeah, there is a bzr tree with a change from cjwatson00:50
bryceh_(and an outstanding merge from me; I'd made the mistake of assuming bzr had current mountall changes)00:50
bryceh_kees, no worries, I'll fix up00:51
bryceh_(and fix up control)00:51
keesbryceh_: argh, uncommitted in UDD? crap, sorry.00:52
keesbryceh_: I'm still getting used to the idea of people developing in UDD without doing uploads.00:52
bryceh_it's a bit weird for me too, although we've been doing this (in git) with X a while00:53
keesyeah, for me, I just don't like having both the automatic upload stomping on the same tree as devel work00:53
keesbryceh_: if you're not already in the middle of it, I can clean up my mistake; just let me know.00:54
bryceh_already done00:54
keesheh, cool.00:54
superm1doko, mterry what was the package in question that's making mythbuntu uninstallable? i didn't see it mentioned in bt00:56
dokosuperm1: dbus-c++ and libconfig, b-d's of libffado00:57
superm1ah libffado isn't a direct rdepend of anything seeded - but it is of libjack-dev00:58
superm1that will probably mess both mythbuntu and ubuntu studio then00:58
dokosee the two MIR's, I think both could need a version update and symbols files01:00
superm1jack support isn't that important in mythbuntu though, so if yall decide jack support has to go for any reason, it's not that big of a deal to just disable it01:00
superm1the studio guys might feel a bit differently01:00

GunnarHjdpm: Hi David, Thought I'd review and update the docs with respect to languages and locales including language-selector, but the only page I found was https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Locale. Are you aware of anything else?12:01
=== vila-afk-lunch is now known as vila
dpmhi GunnarHj, what are you trying exactly to document?12:05
GunnarHjdpm: Well, at first hand I'm thinking of a short manual for l-s (to the extent it's not obvious by the UI). Another thing is to explain how to make a more fine grained locales configuration, e.g. separate locales for date formats and numbers. Third I'm thinking of explaining where and how things are stored now, bearing those in mind who help with answering questions.12:12
=== MacSlow is now known as MacSlow|lunch
dpmGunnarHj, ok. Two things come to mind: either document it first on the wiki, or create a help document for language-selector. For the first one you can start straight away; for the second you might want to contact the docs team about how they work, the tools they use, etc.12:14
GunnarHjdpm: That sounds reasonable. I take that neither you know of any other existing docs.12:16
GunnarHjdpm: On another topic, since a few translatable text strings in language-selector were changed recently, shouldn't https://translations.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/natty/+source/language-selector/+imports show those strings? Is the time lag that long, or does it indicate that I missed something when updating language-selector?12:16
dpmGunnarHj, on the first question: no, I don't know of any other documentation. There are some links here you could use as a reference -> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/Internationalisation/Coding#Additional%20documentation, but they serve a bit of a different purpose12:18
cjwatsonSpamapS: don't worry too urgently about it - libtirpc/nfs-utils needs work in order to let us configure nfs-utils with TI-RPC support without breaking interoperability with portmap12:18
cjwatsonara: I will find them useful, but have not started working through them yet12:18
cjwatsonspeakman: no, sorry12:18
cjwatsonspeakman: maybe #ubuntu-server I suppose12:18
GunnarHjdpm: Yeah, that page rather shows what you need to do to turn a package to a package which is parsed for strings to be translated. Since l-s already is that kind of package, I thought it would work 'magically' already without doing anything special. Maybe I was wrong...12:22
dpmGunnarHj, as for the 2nd question, that url ^ shows the status of the templates (or translations) imported. If it's empty, it means that either the templates or the translations have just been imported or that they haven't reached the queue yet. When was the package uploaded with the changes, and are they not in https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/natty/+source/language-selector/+pots/language-selector/sv/+translate ? (you can use the search box i12:23
dpmn there)12:23
GunnarHjdpm: No, they are not there (checked it already). And according to https://translations.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/natty/+source/language-selector the last edit was made 2010-09-24.12:28
dpmGunnarHj, could you point me to the package version which introduced them, and give me one of the strings that were modified in the source? (btw https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/natty/+source/language-selector lists the last edit done by translators, it has nothing to do with the date the template was uploaded)12:30
dpm<dpm> GunnarHj, could you point me to the package version which introduced them, and give me one of the strings that were modified in the source? (btw https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/natty/+source/language-selector lists the last edit done by translators, it has nothing to do with the date the template was uploaded)12:43
YokoZarWhat's the proper way for a package to demand the uninstall of a package before it starts installing?  I have a weird situation where if I uninstall foo and then install bar, it works fine, but if I install bar (which is a later version of foo!) it breaks12:48
YokoZarShould I make the package conflict with earlier versions of itself?  Somehow that sounds absurd12:48
GunnarHjdpm: These were two altered strings in language-selector (0.12), released on January 28:12:51
GunnarHjLanguage &amp; Format12:51
GunnarHj&lt;small&gt;Use the same language choices for startup and the login screen.\nChanges take effect only after a restart of the system.&lt;/small&gt;12:51
dpmGunnarHj, btw, why did you use &amp; and &lt;?12:53
GunnarHjdpm: I didn't introduce them. Think they are needed for GTK to do the right thing.12:54
GunnarHjdpm: or maybe because it's XML...12:55
dpmnot sure why & and <> cannot be used, though12:56
dpmanyway, let me have a look at the strings12:56
GunnarHjdpm: Not sure about & and <> - didn't test.12:59
apacheloggercjwatson: https://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/index.php?32710 within the same context, would it be possible to get a function to write something on the pipeline (i.e. vpnc gets informatin from stdin unless one defines a config file)13:00
dpmGunnarHj, the latest template seems to have &:13:01
dpm#: ../data/LanguageSelector.ui.h:2613:01
dpmmsgid "Language & Format"13:01
dpmmsgstr ""13:01
dpmpitti, I've just built language-selector locally and it didn't create a translations tarball (I've got pkgbinarymangler installed and striptranslations enabled). This might be why GunnarHj didn't see the template in LP being updated. Any hints on what could be happening?13:03
dpmGunnarHj, btw, if you want to test this yourself, you can try this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/Internationalisation/RecipeVerifyingTranslationUploads13:04
GunnarHjdpm: In that case the changes resulted in new templates, at least...13:04
GunnarHjdpm: Thanks for the tip on how to verify translation uploads.13:07
dpmno worries :)13:11
pittiGunnarHj, dpm: language-selector sets NO_PKG_MANGLE=1 in debian/rules13:12
pittiGunnarHj, dpm: presumably we want language-selector .deb to include all translations, so that at least this program is translated into your language when you need to install missing langpacks13:13
dpmpitti, ah, ok. So template changes are better uploaded manually, I guess.13:14

micahgbarry: why isn't scons a ync?16:04
micahg*sync16:04
barrymicahg: yeah16:04
janimoari-tczew, feel free to ping debian though - are they not following merge-o-matic or some similar output?16:04
micahgbarry: so, you should just use requestsync for it and it'll be brought into natty later this week16:05
ari-tczewjanimo: it's rare case when maintainer takes a look on Ubuntu delta. btw. merge-o-matic is broken.16:05
micahgbarry: you probably need an FFe as well16:05
barrymicahg: i won't be around to verify it later this week though since i'm at pycon for 10 days starting tomorrow16:05
barryan FFe for a micro release update?16:06
janimoari-tczew, that is sad. As it would help a lot in avoiding manual work to subscrobe to the LP packages they maintain in Debian.16:06
micahgbarry: yes, unless it has an exception since it's in main16:06
ari-tczewjanimo: I don't understand what do you mean, sorry.16:07
barrymicahg: i'll get the ball rolling but someone else is going to have to follow through with both scons and csound bugs.  i'll assign them to doko_ after i do what i can16:07
doko_barry: so I can sync it?16:07
janimoari-tczew, if a debian maintainer subscribed to the LP notifications concerning their packages they could fish out interesting thigs themseleves16:08
janimoand not requiring ubuntu devs to explicitly forward everything16:08
janimomakes sense especially for a lot of universe stuff which we do not usually patch16:08
ari-tczewjanimo: feel free to suggest him it :)16:08
barrydoko_: sync'ing scons to debian testing version, then no-change rebuild of csound after that lands will fix the csound bug16:08

lamontat least iirc16:34
terlmannLet's say you had a package that didn't have a newer version available because of  developer circumstances. It is needed by the user because of their usage circumstances. It relies on core libraries that the user wanted to upgrade to newer versions, like gtklib from 2 to 2.9/3.16:39
terlmannCould you add logic to your apt chain of tools to automatically detect such "dead-end" packages and sandbox them with the specific dependencies that would differ from the new packageset in a /opt chroot, until such time as they can be upgraded?16:40
NCommanderdoko_: directhex: ping, do we have a VCS for mono's packaging on ARM? I found the Debian git repo, but I can't find something for Ubuntu16:43
doko_NCommander: I don't have one16:43
directhexNCommander, nothing ubuntu specific16:44
NCommanderdoko_: so you just uploaded the package directly? (I have patches to mono to help fix it with SMP+Thumb2)16:44
directhexNCommander, generally, ubuntu things can go into git branches, although you won't have write access to that repo16:44
pittidpm: ah, the new natty langpack build just finished16:44
NCommanderdirecthex: I don't even see an ubuntu branch for that git repo16:45
Laneycould the patch not go into Debian?16:45
pittichrisccoulson: ^ FYI; so I'm ready to build new packs whenever we have a decision what to do with the xpis16:45
Laney. o O ( or upstream )16:45
NCommanderLaney: mono on Debian moving to 2.10 which has this properly fixed in git16:45
directhexNCommander, we don't have any ubuntu specific things that we're tracking in debian right now.16:46
Laneyoh, they're upstream already — great16:46
dpmpitti, ah, what does it look like? Does it come with FF translation goodness? :-)16:46
NCommanderthe backport to 2.6 is complicated since it only should be applied to ARMv716:46
NCommander2.10 has a nice mechanism to handle that16:46
NCommander2.6, not so much16:46
pittidpm: no, I didn't enable po2xpi16:46
pittiit's still broken (and it wasn't used before either)16:46
NCommanderLaney: the SMP partch should be acceptable for Debian but I don't ahve any hardware to properly test it16:46
LaneyI'd use the UDD branches, or you can push mono.git to github16:46
Laneyand create a branch there16:46
NCommanderdirecthex: we have a ubuntu1 version on Ubuntu16:47
chrisccoulsonpitti - we should use the new rc1 xpi's from ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/nightly/4.0rc1-candidates/build1/linux-i686/xpi/16:47
chrisccoulson(i shall be uploading RC1 later this week)16:47
pittichrisccoulson: I thought they'd have a too tight version?16:47
pittichrisccoulson: ah, you mean they'll actually work until the final, and we only need to update them then16:47
chrisccoulsonpitti - yeah they do. for now, we'll either need to mangle the maxVersion in them, or we could ship them as they are and update them later16:47
LaneyNCommander: from the mono group POV it was syncable. A Ubuntu developer then uploaded it and made this not so any more. Thus there is no Ubuntu branch from our side.16:48
directhexNCommander, perhaps, but we didn't put it there16:48
chrisccoulsoneither way will work fine for now16:48
pittichrisccoulson: ack; so, I'll update my po2xpi branch with them now, can you merge afterwards?16:48
chrisccoulsonpitti - sure, no problem16:48
directhexNCommander, to an extent, it doesn't matter - we're working on 2.10 in debian, so 2.6-specifics are a bit meh16:48
NCommanderdirecthex: so the basic answer is, just upload with the backports from upstream16:49
psusiwhat's the difference between Conflicts: and Breaks:?16:49
Laneyand if you want, make a branch and get us to pull it16:49
directhexNCommander, if the changes are upstream in 2.10, then yeah16:50
NCommanderLaney: if your on 2.10.1, you should get it for free16:50
Laneyyep16:50

pittiseb128: thansk!16:52
seb128pitti, is that the same crash?16:52
dpmpitti, so what is this new langpack build going to be? A -base refresh without the xpis?16:53
pittidpm: no, -base with xpis16:53
pittidpm: but the upstream ones (as we used to do in all releases so far)16:53
pittiseb128: need some debug symbols, hang on16:53
* psusi goes with Conflicts16:53
Laneybreaks is usually sufficient16:54
dpmpitti, yeah, that was my question earlier, I should have rephrased it a bit clearer. So regardless of whether they are upstream ones or LP ones, we will have a localized Firefox after this langpack update I understand?16:54
pittidpm: correct16:55
chrisccoulsondpm - we will do once we get ff4.0rc1 in the archive16:55
psusiI don't see what difference it really makes whether the package is just unconfigured or not... if the library is installed, then it's installed16:55
pittiseb128: ah no, your's is an FPE, mine is a SEGV16:55

jhuntbroder: so there is no way to push to the "upstream ubuntu" branch"? (presumably because that points to the latest release (natty)?)20:37
jhuntbroder: this is confusing because the branch I branched from was: lp:~ubuntu-desktop/gdm/ubuntu.20:38
broderjhunt: lp:ubuntu/foo is an alias for lp:~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/natty/gdm/natty (where the last natty is an "arbitrary" identifier a la blah)20:38
jhuntnot very symmetrical, or am I missing something?20:38
broderin user branches (i.e. with a ~), the second component is the project. if the project is ubuntu, the third component must be a distribution series. the last component is an arbitrary tag you give the branch20:39
broderso lp:~ubuntu-desktop/gdm/ubuntu is a branch off of the gdm project, and ubuntu is their arbitrary tag20:39

broderso the diff is still massive. i think i may have given you bad advice when i said to merge into lp:ubuntu/gdm. if you branched from lp:~ubuntu-desktop/gdm/ubuntu, you should merge back into that20:58
