slangasekit's not a big deal if you don't have it, I know where the 'retry' button is :)00:04
broderit's probably not worth the effort, since i'd have to go parsing binary packages and build-deps and so forth. retry button is probably easier :)00:04

psusimust... annihilate... patches applied in bzr....02:19
cjwatsonpsusi: any chance of recognising differences of opinion?02:32
cjwatsonrather than just ranting?02:33
psusicjwatson, if they have a good rationale... but it's causing me a great deal of pain02:33
cjwatsonyes, I have a good rationale for doing it that way in my packages.02:33
psusiand besides, I thought you agreed with this one? ;)02:33
cjwatsonno, I disagree.02:33
cjwatsonit permits unified 'bzr blame' and 'bzr log', regardless of whether a change happened upstream or in the distribution02:34
cjwatson(yes, parted etc. is done differently, that's 'cos I'm not sole maintainer)02:34
psusithat's true... but it screws bzr merge02:34
cjwatsonit can be handled02:34
psusiand makes bzr diff reviewing a royal PITA02:34
cjwatsonquilt pop -a; bzr merge --force; then quilt push and quilt refresh your way up the stack02:35
cjwatsonit's different, but it's straightforward once you get the hang of it02:35
cjwatsonyou have to refresh all the patches anyway, so it's not that big an imposition02:35
cjwatsonall it really does is change the order of operations02:36
cjwatsonI concede that it is somewhat easy to get confused in the middle; in my packages I accept that trade-off for what I see as bigger benefits02:36
psusidoes that work?  I would think that would break quilt since the merge would want to mark quilt patches as applied that aren't02:39
cjwatsonpsusi: you quilt pop -a if you're merging from upstream, which has no patches applied; if you're merging from some other branch with quilt patches applied, you pop down to the base at the branchpoint, basically02:46
cjwatsonbut more generally, I do this quite a lot, I'm not making it up02:46

dholbachI mean... it's reviewed, no?10:03
dholbachso it can get off the list - there's nothing that needs to be done about it from a sponsors perspective10:04

dholbachgreat10:04
dokoDaviey: now, before everybody starts scratching heads ... could you file bug reports for these which don't look multiarch related?10:05
Davieydoko, TBH, i'm questioning if it's an issue with the packages or the build environment.  Going to rebuild the packages i need to be concerned about on that list locally.10:07

dokoslangasek: well, why not. but maybe not for the ones which are already superseded, and not for emacs23 and ecj15:54
Ampelbeinjuliank: I think the problem lies more in apport than in the user. If there is a package installation failure, a box comes up asking the user if the problem should be reported. Apport should remember when it already reported the same error for the same package instead of asking the user to file the report again.15:55

slangasekI'm currently doing a test run to prove the tool works for filing armel bugs without blowing up15:58
slangasekif that checks out, I can tweak it and do the x86 ones15:58
Ampelbeinjuliank: yes, that's the second part of the problem (user's just clicking report problem instead of thinking first)15:59
dokoslangasek: and not for m17-lib ijs lintian15:59
ScottKslangasek: Is this the tool that was earlier reporting bugs on armel FTBFS that had already been fixed?15:59
juliankAmpelbein: Locking the account for a month would help in such cases15:59
slangasekdoko: because those are false positives or already diagnosed?15:59
slangasekScottK: yes, but that was operator error while it was being developed15:59
dokoslangasek: already diagnosed, sync requested, or bugs already filed16:00
slangasekdoko: if you tag the bugs 'ftbfs' 'natty', no need to manually exclude them16:00
ScottKslangasek: How's avogadro coming?16:00
ScottK(speaking of armel FTBFS)16:00
dokoslangasek: can you targed these for the release and set a milestone?16:01
slangasekScottK: kunal is continuing to look at it, I believe he was going to be talking to folks on #kubuntu-devel overnight16:01
ScottKGreat.16:01
slangasekScottK: it's a tricky one, there's a lot of code in there that's non-optional and completely dependent on libGL; it didn't show up in an emulated i386 build test, because of course libqt4-opengl-dev on i386 *does* pull in GL instead of GLES216:02
ScottKRight.16:02
pittidoko: do you know if the main packages on http://people.ubuntuwire.org/~wgrant/rebuild-ftbfs-test/test-rebuild-20110329-natty.html are already complete?16:05

ubottuLaunchpad bug 729150 in libappindicator (Ubuntu Maverick) "libappindication crashes in gtkstatusicon code on update" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/72915016:09
pittibdmurray: we recently moved to a single global pattern list, so we can now write patterns which are independent of a particular package16:10
bdmurraypitti: right but it seems to me that the Stacktrace is vague until it is retraced16:11
pittiyeah, unfortunately16:11
pittiso I'm afraid I have no good idea either16:11
bdmurraywell maybe the retracer could be improved to consolidate duplicates across packages?16:13
pittibdmurray: that's a bit blurry -- for some crashes we actually don't want to unify similar crashes on different packages16:14
pittithere might be some middle ground, like unifying them if we have at least 5 levels of stack trace, and they have "enough" entropy in the names (for a to-be-defined treshold)16:15
bdmurraypitti: I think it is something worth investigating as there are likely quite duplicates of this still hiding (unconsolidated) in Launchpad.16:16
slangasekdoko: target, milestone> I guess svammel doesn't currently implement that; do you consider that a blocker for getting the bugs filed, or can we go through and bump them up afterwards (scriptable, again)?16:16

didrocks:-)16:41
seb128slangasek, do you look at libgtop as well? before I start on it ;-)16:41
slangasekdidrocks: I noticed only after upload that my rationale in the changelog was wrong... unity depends on it, which is far from "nothing", apparently I need to pay closer attention to my checkrdepends commandline... but I did rebuild testing of all the reverse-deps, nothing else breaks16:41
slangasekseb128: I have not - that hadn't ftbfs yet by the time I went to bed :)16:42
seb128slangasek, ok16:43

slangasek:-)16:43
seb128slangasek, urg, does it mean we will need to patch every single lib to set a --libdir=... or?16:46
slangasekseb128: for actual multiarch conversions, yes.  to fix build failures, no16:47
cjwatsonseb128: smart helpers deal with it; http://wiki.debian.org/Multiarch/Implementation16:47
cjwatsonwell, by which I mean dh(1) compat 9 :)16:48

seb128hum ok16:48
cjwatsonyep, it's the one between 8 and 1016:48
seb128can we make cdbs be smart? ;-)16:49
directhexseb128, sounds like an oxymoron16:49
slangasekseb128: how can you, cdbs has no equivalent to dh compat levels16:49
seb128slangasek, I guess I should read the wiki before asking extra questions, I just assumed it could be default for any build ;-)16:51
seb128but anyway libgtop which is unapproved builds fine there, I guess it's the "90_autotools.patch: - Dropped, using dh-autoreconf instead" which did it16:52
seb128doko, pitti: ^16:52
slangasekseb128: switching it on by default breaks your .install and .links files... has to be a controlled conversion, package-by-package :/16:53
