ubottu | nginx (source: nginx): small, but very powerful and efficient web server and mail proxy. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.8.54-4 (natty), package size 5 kB, installed size 80 kB | 03:16 |
MTecknology | :D | 03:16 |
ScottK | MTecknology: Please play with the bots elsewhere. | 04:09 |
MTecknology | ScottK: all i did was looked at the version.. | 04:10 |
ScottK | OK. Based on the :D, it looked to me like you were messing around. | 04:11 |
MTecknology | no, I was excited to know for sure that particular version was pushed through; been busy and never followed up and figured this is the easiest and quickest way to check | 04:12 |
ScottK | OK. rmadison nginx would be another way. | 04:12 |

jimqode | What is the procedure for becoming a package maintainer for a package? | 14:40 |
tumbleweed | jimqode: Ubuntu doesn't have maintainers for packages. If you care about a package, just start looking after it (i.e. subscribe to its bugs, and trigae the existing ones) | 14:40 |
jimqode | tumbleweed, who does the packagin of new versions? | 14:41 |
tumbleweed | jimqode: for most packages, the mainatiner in Debian. Otherwise, whoever wants to | 14:42 |
jimqode | tumbleweed, I see. The versions on ubuntu are not usually bleeding edge. Is that deliberate? | 14:44 |
tumbleweed | the latest released version of most packages are uploaded to Debian unstable as soon as the maintaire thinks they are ready (normally as soon as the maintainer notices) | 14:46 |
tumbleweed | we automatically sync whatever appears in Debian, until DebianImportFreeze | 14:46 |
tumbleweed | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment etc. | 14:46 |
jimqode | tumbleweed, thank you for the info :) | 14:59 |
tumbleweed | jimqode: np | 14:59 |

huats | does anybody can refresh me the relationship between files in /usr/share/pyshared and /usr/lib/pymodules/python2.X ? | 18:34 |
huats | ScottK, probably :) | 18:34 |
ScottK | Probably. | 18:36 |
tumbleweed | the python policy describes it, IIRC | 18:37 |
ScottK | huats: For python (python3 is different) /usr/share/pyshared is where we want code that's common across python versions installed. It's then symlinked to /usr/lib/pymodules/python2.X and the .pyc files (which are python version specific) go there. | 18:38 |
huats | ScottK thanks | 18:38 |
ScottK | barry will now explain all the ways that explanaition is wrong/incomplete. | 18:38 |
huats | that was my understanding | 18:39 |
ScottK | huats: Use dh_python2 and it will do the right thing. | 18:39 |
tumbleweed | but depending on the python helper used, the symlink could be in the package, or done in postinst | 18:39 |
huats | I am working on a package that have some extra .py (not only the __init__.py I mean) in the /usr/share/pyshared | 18:40 |
huats | and I couldn't figure out why | 18:40 |
huats | :( | 18:40 |
barry | if it's new packaging, *please* use dh_python2 :) | 18:40 |
huats | it is not a new one :( | 18:40 |
huats | well it is a package for a software that is not yet in the distro | 18:41 |
huats | it uses python-support | 18:41 |
barry | huats: it's very easy to convert from pysupport to dh_python2 :) | 18:41 |
ScottK | pysupport does it slightly differently. | 18:41 |
ScottK | I lost track on the details. | 18:42 |
barry | yeah, i have a hard time keeping it all straight too. dh_python{2,3} is the new goodness | 18:42 |
huats | barry, then I'll have a look | 18:42 |
barry | huats: http://wiki.debian.org/Python/PythonSupportToDHPython2 | 18:42 |
huats | barry, thanks | 18:43 |
huats | and ScottK and tumbleweed thanks too | 18:44 |
huats | barry, just as a side note I can't use dh_python2 since I need to have a working release on lucid and afaik the python needed version as listed on the wiki page is not on lucid | 19:10 |
barry | huats: i think there's a backport, but that might not help you. doko or ScottK might know | 19:13 |
ScottK | Not afaik. | 19:13 |
ScottK | huats: What I do on lucid is just log into a maverick/natty chroot. | 19:13 |
ScottK | (for building the source package) | 19:13 |
ScottK | If someone wanted to prepare a dh_python2 backport, it's probably a very safe thing to d. | 19:14 |
ScottK | d/do | 19:14 |
ScottK | I just haven't gotten round to it (and probably won't) | 19:14 |
huats | ok ScottK | 19:18 |
huats | thanks ! | 19:18 |

ari-tczew | does anybody know how to fix following warnings? dpkg-shlibdeps: warning: dependency on libusb-0.1.so.4 could be avoided if "debian/clementine/usr/bin/clementine" were not uselessly linked against it (they use none of its symbols). | 20:23 |
ari-tczew | is it important? | 20:23 |
paultag | ari-tczew: yeah, it means that you're adding in the library at link-time, so it depends on it, but it's not getting called anywhere in the code | 20:25 |
paultag | ari-tczew: it's a good thing(tm) to fix | 20:25 |
SpamapS | Would anybody care to review this package for possible upload to natty (I know its very late for NEW ;) bug #746142 | 20:26 |
ubottu | Launchpad bug 746142 in Ubuntu "[needs-packaging] wordpress-drizzle 0.2.0" [Wishlist,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/746142 | 20:26 |
paultag | ari-tczew: e.g. let's say libfoo is uselessly linked against bar. let's say `gcc -o bar ./bar.c' works. the build now is doing `gcc -o bar ./bar.c -lfoo' | 20:26 |
micahg | SpamapS: probably better off getting in Debian and backporting from oneiric | 20:27 |
SpamapS | micahg: why? | 20:27 |
micahg | SpamapS: you need an FFe to get it in at this point | 20:28 |
paultag | SpamapS: it closes no bugs and is a new feature :) | 20:28 |
paultag | SpamapS: get it in debian :) | 20:28 |
SpamapS | I think its warranted. Its a php file, a symlink, and some documentation... | 20:28 |
SpamapS | and it was promised in a blueprint | 20:28 |
paultag | SpamapS: should have got it done before FFe ;) | 20:29 |
paultag | erm, FF | 20:29 |
SpamapS | I get two very different messages when I talk to different people about universe. | 20:29 |
SpamapS | One side says its ok to add new packages late. The other side says no. ;) | 20:29 |
micahg | SpamapS: with good reason, it's easier to get something in universe late than in main, but you still need the release team ACK on it | 20:30 |
SpamapS | Ok, so, assuming I'm going to go and get their ACK.. would anyone care to review it with that in mind? ;) | 20:30 |
