| wcchandler | Just so I have this clear, Every time a new release is about to come about, like 11.10. You guys take a snapshot of the current debian unstable? And then from there you do all the magic? | 00:55 |
|---|---|---|
| lifeless | o | 00:56 |
| lifeless | no | 00:56 |
| lifeless | right *after* a release comes out, we grab everything in unstable | 00:56 |
| lifeless | then we spend 6 months fixing the result + doing the things we're trying to do that layer on top of it | 00:57 |
| wcchandler | Then as updates roll out on debian unstable, are they set aside until everything is polished on the snapshot and then slowly added when they reach the same level as everything else? Are they added after an initial release (i.e. Alpha, Beta?) Or are they never touched until the release officially comes out? | 00:59 |
| lifeless | we start with everything coming across and then as we get closer to release gradually turn the pipe off | 01:01 |
| lifeless | first from automatic to manual, then manual to needing approval, and finally no updates at all | 01:01 |
| * wcchandler gets to the section on seeds, germinate and bazaar :$ | 01:03 | |
| wcchandler | On this page: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeedManagement under Supported there are two links "Arch" and "Soyuz" that do not link to an actual page. | 01:13 |
| lifeless | oh wow | 01:19 |
| lifeless | thats -very- old | 01:19 |
| wcchandler | :( please tell me it's still relavent? | 01:19 |
| wcchandler | And I noticed most of the links pointed to Gutsy... I just assumed as an example? | 01:19 |
| lifeless | no, thats when they were written | 01:20 |
| wcchandler | Is this page still relevant: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuArchitecture | 01:21 |

| cjwatson | smoser: libwww-perl> actually, can I make this your problem again? the problem is that several MIRs need to be written for the new libwww-perl | 10:19 |
| cjwatson | smoser: you can find them by looking at http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/component-mismatches.txt and searching for libwww-perl | 10:20 |
| cjwatson | smoser: you might need to search recursively to make sure you've got them all | 10:21 |
| smoser | cjwatson, so you're asking me to do some MIRs? | 10:21 |
| smoser | pff... i can [reluctantly] do that. | 10:21 |
| cjwatson | yup, if you could :) | 10:21 |
| cjwatson | well, somebody who cares needs to own MIRs, generally | 10:21 |

| smoser | yeah, no probably. i understand. | 10:22 |
| smoser | thanks cjwatson | 10:22 |
| cjwatson | if it still fails to build after all that, I'm happy to attempt to sort it out from a perl-transition point of view | 10:22 |
| cjwatson | but this doesn't look like intrinsically part of the perl 5.12 transition - it's just new deps from an autosync | 10:22 |
| Chipzz | hrrrrm, I see libwww-perl has several -perl reverese build-deps.. but is that actually needed (as opposed to reverse deps)? | 10:24 |
| Chipzz | does parrot byte code get compiled at build time? | 10:24 |

| real_ate_ | hi guys! quick question ... our company had to patch a deb package that comes with ubuntu and want to keep an eye on when that package updates so that we can reapply our patch | 15:01 |
| real_ate_ | is there any sort of automated mailing list that can notify you of a change of a particular package in ubuntu? | 15:02 |
| micahg | real_ate_: lists.ubuntu.com, there should be a $RELEASE-changes list | 15:02 |
| real_ate_ | i.e. when libxyz is updated you get an email with a subject "Package libxyz has been updated" etc .... | 15:02 |
| micahg | real_ate_: also, if it's appropriate for others as well, you could try to get it into Ubuntu and/or upstream | 15:02 |
| micahg | real_ate_: no, the list shows almost all changes to the release except for mass auto-sync from Debian | 15:03 |
| micahg | real_ate_: but that doesn't happen in a stable release anyways | 15:03 |
| real_ate_ | micahg: its not realy apropriate... it for LTS and it is choosing to configure with libxml for axis2c because of a bug in the built in xml parser... too big of a change for a SUR (or whatever the achronym is ) | 15:04 |
| micahg | real_ate_: ok, you could get the fix in for the next LTS though if appropriate :) | 15:04 |
| Chipzz | real_ate_: you could install apticron; that will send out a mail whenever new packages are available | 15:05 |
| cjwatson | real_ate_: you can also subscribe to the 'derivatives' keyword for a package on packages.qa.debian.org - IIRC that gets all Ubuntu uploads | 15:05 |
| cjwatson | (I don't recall how much else it gets though) | 15:06 |
| Chipzz | real_ate_: if you pipe the mail through a script you could grep for the package name | 15:06 |
| Chipzz | (I'm doing sth similar, but not for watching a specific package; I rather put all available updates in a db) | 15:06 |
| real_ate_ | Chipzz: cool i will have to look into this | 15:06 |
| micahg | you could filter by subject if you have the changes list set to individual mails as well | 15:07 |
| Chipzz | real_ate_: | 15:09 |
| Chipzz | # grep apticron /etc/aliases | 15:09 |
| Chipzz | apticron: |/usr/local/bin/wf-apticron-parse | 15:09 |
| Chipzz | that's with postfix | 15:09 |
| Chipzz | don't even have to install procmail or anything | 15:09 |
| real_ate_ | Chipzz: i will have to look into that solution but for now i will go with the list... it means that we can have a single setup not dependant on a particular machine being up | 15:10 |

| Laney | broder: debootstrap does, otherwise how do chroots get their sources.list? | 16:26 |
| Laney | debootstrap/functions:879 | 16:26 |

| infinity | hallyn: Perhaps somewhere in some library packaging guide or some such. It's been a long time since I've paid attention to what lives in which policy. | 23:33 |
| infinity | hallyn: But, basically, our 64-bit architectures are treated as "first-class citizens" and given the same file layout as 32-bit arches.
