Strykeris the alpha release able to support nvidia cards yet without xorg crashing?00:05
jbichathe nvidia drivers work in natty for me00:19
penguin42anyone around to set a priority? bug 725044 is probably a low - but it might effect multiple SDL apps, and there is a 1 line trivial upstream fix that fixes it00:26
ubot4`Launchpad bug 725044 in gentoo (and 3 other projects) "SDL rendering issue: graphic corruption while scrolling right (affects: 2) (heat: 14)" [Unknown,Unknown] https://launchpad.net/bugs/72504400:26
Ampelbeinpenguin42: ok, will set to triaged, prio low and nominate for natty.00:40
penguin42Ampelbein: Thank you00:41
Ampelbeinpenguin42: do you want to prepare a package fixing that?00:43
penguin42Ampelbein: How would I do that? I can do a quilt patch but what should I put the package version in the changelog to ?00:44
Ampelbeinpenguin42: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DistributedDevelopment/Documentation if you want to do it properly00:45
Ampelbeinpenguin42: do you have experience with debian/ubuntu packaging?00:46
penguin42Ampelbein: A bit - I can go through the quilt + dch -i -> debdiff, and I have done a handful of small bzr pushes but I'm not confident yet; also this package doesn't seem to be maintained in bzr00:47
Ampelbeinpenguin42: all packages in ubuntu now have a bzr branch, accessible via either ubuntu:<package> or lp:ubuntu/<package>00:48
penguin42Ampelbein: Oh OK, let me see if I can do that then00:48
penguin42Ampelbein: I'm getting bzr: ERROR: Not a branch: "bzr+ssh://bazaar.launchpad.net/%2Bbranch/ubuntu/libsdl-1.2/" when doing bzr branch lp:ubuntu/libsdl-1.2 libsdl-1.200:55
penguin42ah - no dash!00:57
Ampelbeinpenguin42: yeah, I think theres a mentiuon of that somewhere00:59
ddecatoryou can look up the branch name on lp so you can make sure you're running the right command00:59
penguin42yeh00:59
penguin42that's how I found there was no dash00:59
penguin42should I use the version number suggested by dch -i (i.e. ....ubuntu3 ?)01:06
Ampelbeinpenguin42: yes, that's correct01:07
iktis it possible to get a backport of a specific fix into past versions of ubuntu?01:08
Ampelbein!sru | ikt01:09
ubot4`ikt: Stable Release Update information is at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates01:09
iktty01:09
penguin42hmm in bzr how do I edit the commit message - I didn't put the LP: tag into it01:19
penguin42ah uncommit01:20
Strykerdid they fix the bug for nvidia to work with unity01:21
penguin42Ampelbein: Ok, I'm confused by https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DistributedDevelopment/Documentation/SeekingSponsorship  it's talking about using debcommit, debcommit says unable to determine commit message using bzr; but what's that actually going to do - I already put an entry in using dch -i  (Where I said Closes: ) and bzr comm it -m  where I did LP: # - what's debcommit after?01:24
Ampelbeinpenguin42: you should use debcommit instead of 'bzr commit -m ....'. it will automatically add a commit message extracted from debian/changelog and pass the necessary '--fixes' parameter to bzr01:26
penguin42ah ok01:27
Ampelbeinpenguin42: so the way is: 1. quilt new/add/refresh/pop; 2. dch -i, write changelog with LP: #XX; debcommit; bzr push01:27
Ampelbeinpenguin42: oh, add a bzr add quilt patch before that of course01:28
penguin42Ampelbein: Ah - so the closes: format is for debian bugs not lp bugs?01:28
Ampelbeinpenguin42: yes, launchpad looks for 'LP: #' tags01:28
penguin42ok01:28
penguin42Ampelbein: bzr lp-propose says bzr: ERROR: lp:~ubuntu-treblig/ubuntu/natty/libsdl1.2/libsdl1.2.fix-725044 has no product.01:33
Ampelbeinpenguin42: hmm. if you go to your 'code' page in lp, you should be able to propose merging01:35
penguin42possibly bug 70566601:36
ubot4`Launchpad bug 705666 in launchpad "lp-propose does not understand packaging (source) branches (affects: 1) (heat: 7)" [Medium,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/70566601:36
Ampelbeinyes, looks like it01:36
penguin42should I add a reviewer or review type etc?01:37
Ampelbeinpenguin42: it should be automatic01:40
Ampelbeinpenguin42: if you look at bug 725044 now, you see a "related branch"01:41
ubot4`Launchpad bug 725044 in gentoo (and 7 other projects) "SDL rendering issue: graphic corruption while scrolling right (affects: 3) (heat: 20)" [Medium,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/72504401:41
penguin42Ampelbein: OK, so I've done the propose - so I think that's it other than waiting for people to tell me it's wrong?01:42
Ampelbeinpenguin42: there is one thing I spotted (sorry I didn't mention it earlier): you should add patch headers, see http://dep.debian.net/deps/dep3/01:43
Ampelbeinpenguin42: i know that it seems like a lot of work to do for a one-line fix, but it helps in the long run.01:44
penguin42ooh not come across those - is that on the quilt patch ?01:44
Ampelbeinpenguin42: yes, it's for keeping track of the patches01:47
Ampelbeinyou can just add those in your local branch and 'bzr push', the rest is done automatically01:48
penguin42ok, let me just kick quilt into life01:48
Ampelbeinafter 'bzr commit' of course01:48
Ampelbeinno, you don't need to use quilt01:49
penguin42oh just edit the top of the patch?01:49
Ampelbeinyeah01:49
arandIf partman fails to start when launched by debconf, is the appropriate package to report against partman-base?: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/partman-base/+bug/72939401:54
ubot4`Launchpad bug 729394 in partman-base (Ubuntu) "partman fails to load during install on LVM systems (affects: 1) (heat: 8)" [Undecided,New]01:54
penguin42Ampelbein: Done01:58
Ampelbeinpenguin42: looks good now, thanks! now you just have to wait for a core-dev to look at it and upload (as the package is in main). probably on monday someone will look at it!02:00
penguin42Ampelbein: Thanks for that - I'd been through bits of parts of that before, but not the whole lot and not a lot of the bzr part; I'd not done any of the linking with lp bugs02:01
Ampelbeinpenguin42: you did good! it's a one time learning effort and i think will make sponsoring and contributing a lot easier02:04
penguin42Ampelbein: It's a bit onion like - but not quite as clean; I'd learned the dch -i/debuild type stuff, but then with debcommit it's one layer on top again02:05
Ampelbeinyou don't HAVE to use debcommit, it just makes life easier. 'bzr commit -m "changelog part" --fixes XXXX' does the same.02:07
penguin42hmm OK02:07
micahgthis sounds like a discussion for #ubuntu-motu or #ubuntu-devel rather than here02:08
penguin42indeed, sorry it kind of strayed from the original request to set the prio02:08
penguin42anyway, time for bed!02:09
