G | Where is the best place to dive in and help out with MOTU stuff at the moment? | 05:19 |
---|---|---|
micahg | G: at the beginning of the cycle, generally package merges, in this case though, fixing the stuff tagged ftbfs and (natty or oneiric) in universe would probably be best | 05:22 |
G | so bugs tagged ftbfs & on http://qa.ubuntuwire.com/ftbfs/ | 05:23 |
micahg | G: those and these: http://people.ubuntuwire.org/~wgrant/rebuild-ftbfs-test/test-rebuild-20110413-natty.html | 05:25 |
G | micahg: I'm guessing for the natty rebuild ones, it's just a case of verifying that they still ftbfs and if they still do, fixing it then? | 05:39 |
micahg | G: yeah | 05:39 |
micahg | G: they should all have bugs filed in launchpad, so just attach a patch or branch to the bug and follow the sponsorship procedure | 05:40 |
G | micahg: i.e. subscribing ubuntu-sponsors ? | 05:41 |
micahg | G: yeah | 05:42 |
G | micahg: if a natty ftbfs package, also needs a merge for Oneiric, I take it that the merge isn't a solution for natty, and that a seperate fix fro natty would be needed? | 06:16 |
micahg | G: right, but you can cherry pick the fix for natty and propose if you want | 06:17 |
micahg | G: but the list I gave you doesn't apply to natty, it's only with gcc-4.6 which is the default in oneiric | 06:17 |
G | micahg: oh, Matthias' rebuild is based on using gcc4.6? | 06:18 |
micahg | G: yep | 06:18 |
micahg | G: that rebuild is tagged oneiric in launchpad, the ones tagged natty, you can cherry pick a fix from Debian if it exists | 06:22 |
G | micahg: oh I was confused, because like that link you gave me, zabbix was FTBFS on i386, and looking at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archive/test-rebuild-20110413/+buildjob/2473125 everything seemed to pointto natty | 06:23 |
micahg | G: it used natty since that was the latest suite available, but it had a special toolchain | 06:24 |
G | micahg: ahhh okay, I get it now :) | 06:25 |

oussama | Hi, do i need to have the last version of ubuntu to contribute in ubuntu (packaging) currently i'm using ubuntu 10.04 lucid lynx thanks | 08:47 |
sagaci | oussama, not necessarily. You can use pbuilder to create an ubuntu+1 environment. correct me if I'm wrong | 08:49 |
_ruben | pbuilder and sbuilder are common tools for that, yes | 08:59 |
_ruben | and it's not restricted to "ubuntu+1", it can be used to work with pretty much any version | 09:00 |
oussama | what is "ubuntu+1" | 09:01 |
_ruben | the term to indicate the current development version: latest stable + 1 | 09:04 |

G | okay, so for a merge proposal, branched the ubuntu bzr tree for the packaging, so if I understand correctly: Add note to bug, attach my branch to the bug, set In Progress, Unassigned, add ubuntu-sponsors to bug watchlist? | 11:53 |
G | err link my branch, that includes the merge, I should say | 11:53 |

hakermania | Hello all :) I have my application to REVU for a review, but now with Natty, tray isn't working, what am I supposed to do? | 17:22 |
micahg | hakermania: fix the app, we'll review for oneiric, you can request backport to natty | 17:24 |
hakermania | Fix the app = Make it an indicator instead of tray? | 17:58 |
micahg | hakermania: well, if it's for GNOME specifically, it would either need to work for GNOME3 or Unity to get into oneiric, if it's a general purpose app, a tray is fine | 17:59 |
micahg | *and/or | 17:59 |
em | why does python-pyopencl DEPEND on nvidia?? | 18:10 |
azeem | does somehting else implement the opencl API? | 18:11 |
em | yes i have an amd radeon card | 18:13 |
azeem | that wasn't the question | 18:14 |
em | i dont understand your question. | 18:17 |
em | there's something I need python-opencl for. I dont have an nvidia card. | 18:18 |
azeem | then maybe that something should depend on python-pyopencl? | 18:18 |
azeem | if nvidia is the only thing shipping the opencl libraray on which pyopencl depends, it sounds ok to me | 18:19 |
azeem | I don't see an amd implementation off-hand | 18:20 |
azeem | eh | 18:20 |
azeem | s/that something should depend/that something shouldn't depend/ | 18:20 |
hakermania | micahg: Where can I download oneiric for testing purposes? Or is it too early? | 18:38 |
micahg | hakermania: it's too early for it to be installable | 18:38 |
Ampelbein | hakermania: oneiric is to a big part uninstallable currently, see http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/testing/oneiric_probs.html | 18:39 |
hakermania | micahg: When/Where the oneiric stable release for testing purposes will be announced? | 18:40 |
micahg | hakermania: oneiric won't be a stable release for 5.5 months :) | 18:40 |
hakermania | then when are we supposed to find the time and fix the app? | 18:40 |
micahg | hakermania: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/OneiricReleaseSchedule | 18:41 |
micahg | hakermania: the alpha releases should at least be installable | 18:42 |
hakermania | So, we can start from 6.2.11. OK then, thanks a lot | 18:42 |
em | azeem: I am trying to set up bitcoin mining. I have an amd card. For that I need the pyopencl. I was hoping that I could use the ubuntu repos but it depends on nvidia libs | 18:48 |
azeem | em: so do you have an opencl implementation from AMD? | 18:53 |
em | azeem: you mean the amdappsdk thing? Yeah | 18:55 |
azeem | em: then you can try to create an equivs package of that nvidia thing | 19:04 |
em | azeem: huh? what do you mean an equivs package? | 19:58 |
em | azeem: are you a motu? | 19:58 |
azeem | what does that have to do with anything? | 19:58 |
micahg | em: if the package needs an implementation of opencl to work, it makes sense to depend on a package that provides it | 20:08 |
