psusiswitching back and forth between packages that leave quilt patches applied in bzr and ones that don't is driving me up the fscking wall!  for the love of root, will someone fix the auto package importer to deapply patches before committing?02:46
pooliepsusi, you're pretty sure that would be better across the board?02:49
pooliethere was a thread about this recently02:49
pooliei can see the inconsistency would suck02:50
psusipoolie, yes!  reviewing commits that add a quilt patch, AND modify the files the quilt patch touches is a royal pain in the ass02:51
poolieyeah02:51
psusibut yea, inconsistency is worse than that02:51
psusinot to mention a needless bloating of the archive02:51
* ScottK still has trouble with Source V3 because starting with the patches already applied just feels wrong.02:54
psusiindeed... they need to be deapplied in bzr02:57
psusiworking on packages where they are not applied is so nice... backporting to older releases is cake02:58

tkamppeterOdyX, we are after FF, I think activating a new sync after FF is not possible.07:33
micahgtkamppeter, depending on the change, we can still sync, what's the question?07:36
tkamppeterI have uploaded foomatic-db to Ubuntu, a new upstream source which adds a bug fix. This package is the same in Ubuntu and Debian. We want to have a sync here, but as we are after FF I thought that the sync is not possible, because arbitrary Debian uploads cannot go into Ubuntu.07:39
tkamppetermicahg, does a sync not mean that every Debian upload goes automatically into Ubuntu?07:40

brendandcjwatson - do you know that bootchart is broken in recent natty images? it seems since yesterday11:57
ogra_pitti, but that will suppress other optimizations, no ?11:57
ogra_pitti, Qt seems to not be able to handle 8bit images for stacking them onto alpha blended ones :)11:57

pittiabhinav-: you could e. g. install acl (or another small package) from maverick, and then try to report a bug against it17:50
pittiabhinav-: or from lucid, if you are on natty; try installing http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/a/acl/acl_2.2.49-2_i386.deb and then ubuntu-bug acl17:51
abhinav-pitti, ah ok thanks. I am on maverick though.17:51

abhinav_pitti, acl is also in apt's cache, but apport is not reporting it as obsolete. I checked with my new code as well as with the current trunk18:15
slangasekRiddell: if I understand your cmake change correctly, this populates the search path by invoking dpkg-architecture at runtime, right?18:18
slangasekRiddell: in that case, you probably also want cmake to depend on dpkg-dev, since dpkg-dev isn't guaranteed to be installed on the systems of end users who are doing non-package-related development18:19
jamespageslangasek: thankyou18:20
slangasek(but this is a minor bug - the fix looks very nice, glad you guys were able to come up with a solution)18:20
slangasekRiddell: as a side effect, this seems to fix cmake behavior for cross-compilation against libraries in multiarch paths... which is exactly what we want to see :-)18:22

slangasekchrisccoulson: also, what's the corresponding source package in the archive that I should look at? I don't see thunderbird-3.3 anywhere19:26
=== MacSlow|errand is now known as MacSlow
chrisccoulsonslangasek, that's hard to describe, it's a fairly complex and customized build system just built around make19:26
chrisccoulsonslangasek, yeah, thunderbird-3.3 is in one of our PPA's, but the failure also affects the firefox and thunderbird packages in the archive19:27
chrisccoulsonalthough, they haven't been rebuilt since the changes yesterday. i wanted to upload the new release today before i hit the problem locally19:27

RoAkSoAxbryceh: ping22:28
RoAkSoAxbryceh: any ideas what might be cause this? http://me.roaksoax.com/dual-monitor.jpeg (Intel Video driver maybe?)22:30
brycehRoAkSoAx, could be a few things22:31
brycehRoAkSoAx, do you have compiz running?  (looks like no?)22:31
RoAkSoAxbryceh: nope22:32
brycehRoAkSoAx, what video driver?22:32
RoAkSoAxbryceh: just happens when laptop's LCD is off though22:32
brycehheh, here comes a game of 20 questions22:32
brycehRoAkSoAx, why don't you describe a bit more about your setup22:32
brycehwhat you did to reproduce, etc.22:32
RoAkSoAxbryceh: Intel HD Video graphics. Lenovo x201 recently purchased. I connect it to VGA and when having the laptop's LCD on, then the external monitors work just fine22:33
RoAkSoAxwhen turning off the LCD displayt and just leaving the external monitors, it shows that22:33
RoAkSoAxbryceh: i connect to both external monitors via a dualhead2go, though when using another laptop with nvidia drivers, this doesn't happen22:34
RoAkSoAxbryceh: and it doesn;t matter if I connect it to one external monitors, or the two (via dualhead2go). Same result22:35
brycehwhen you connect to one monitor, is that through the dualhead2go device or straight thru?22:36
RoAkSoAxbryceh: straight thru22:36
brycehin what manner do you turn off the LCD display?22:36
RoAkSoAxbryceh: gnome-display-properties22:37
brycehhmm22:37
slangasekpitti: heh, fontconfig is not the only package broken by cdbs+python-scour; atk is as well22:38
brycehalright, so most likely it's either a kernel (KMS) problem with drm or potentially gnome-display-properties22:38
slangasekand I just broke it22:38
=== Guest95250 is now known as ogra
slangasek(on powerpc, anyway)22:38
RoAkSoAxbryceh: if I use my other laptop with nVidia proprietary or with nouveau, I don't experience this at all22:38
brycehRoAkSoAx, well, it is almost certainly something unusual about that particular laptop's vga port22:39
brycehRoAkSoAx, however that does tend to rule out bad edid I suppose22:39
brycehRoAkSoAx, here is what I would do to diagnose it a bit further22:40
bryceha.  reboot with the monitor attached, and verify the problem still occurs22:40
brycehactually22:40
RoAkSoAxbryceh: (oh forgot to mention, this worked fine in Maverick) and I've done a. and the problem persists22:41
bryceha.  reboot with the monitor attached and lvds left on, you should not see the problem22:41
brycehb.  now use xrandr to disable the lvds (not gnome-display-properties)22:41
brycehc.  if the issue still occurs at this point, run 'ubuntu-bug xorg' and I'll take a look22:42
* RoAkSoAx on it now22:42
brycehRoAkSoAx, otoh if it does not occur when disabling the monitor using xrandr, then the bug probably should be filed against gnome-display-properties22:42
brycehalthough, in either case I suspect the root cause may be kernel kms drm driver issues, but probably best to start from userspace for diagnostic purposes22:43
brycehRoAkSoAx, if you can also post a Xorg.0.log and 'xrandr --verbose' output from when it's working *correctly* for comparison purposes, that'll probably help22:44
cjwatsonbryceh: FYI Andy's kernel/udev/plymouth/gdm/etc. suite of changes is on its way up now22:45
brycehcjwatson, awesome!  many bug reports are about to fall22:45
cjwatsonnvidia is still problematic I think, but I added plymouth:force-drm which lets people experiment with the plymouth drm driver again on nouveau22:45
cjwatsoncan't speak for ati22:45
brycehI'll email AMD and let them know22:46
bryceh-fglrx is still unreleased22:46
cjwatsonhaven't yet touched kdm22:47
cjwatsonbut it shouldn't break them22:47
RoAkSoAxbryceh: yeah ut seens to be gnome-display-properties then as I disable with xrandr and external monitors work just fine with LVDS off22:49
brycehRoAkSoAx, ok good, that narrows it down nicely22:50
brycehRoAkSoAx, ok i think you have enough info to file a bug report against gnome-display-properties, and xrandr should give you a workaround for now, but feel free to let me know if you have any other questions22:51
RoAkSoAxbryceh: awesome! Tha nks a lot for the help22:51
brycehcjwatson, ok AMD is notified of the change.  Hopefully they'll catch any issues in their testing22:57

=== dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk
debfxcjwatson: do you know why component-mismatches says that kdesvn-kio-plugins needs to be promoted to main even though it is only an alternate dependency of kdesdk?23:22
=== dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates
cjwatsondebfx: because the primary alternative, kdesdk-kio-plugins, is uninstallable on armel at the moment (it's out of sync, which is presumably why), so germinate fails to resolve it and falls back to the secondary alternative23:41
debfxcjwatson: ok, thanks for the explanation23:45
