slangasekthis all works fine with the default gcc compiler in natty00:08
virhiloslangasek: gcc00:09
slangasekwell, I can't reproduce the problem you're describing00:09
virhiloslangasek: it was not able to fiund libpng zlib and few others00:09
virhiloslangasek: try compiling python 2.7 for example:)00:10
slangasekah - that has nothing to do with gcc00:10
virhiloor pil for python00:10
virhiloslangasek: it uses gcc00:10
slangasekno, that's an issue with python 2.7's library detection00:10
dokovirhilo: which python version?00:10
virhilo2.700:10
virhiloslangasek: ahhh...00:10
slangasekthe upstream library detection code inspects the filesystem directly; a 'gcc -lpng' or 'gcc -ljpeg' works just fine00:11
virhiloslangasek: so i should report bugs for them?:)00:11
virhilodoko: Python 2.7.1 (r271:86832 to be exact:)00:12
slangasekthis has been discussed upstream already, and mentioned in barry's post to ubuntu-devel here: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2011-April/033049.html00:12
dokovirhilo: try to build from the current branch00:12
virhilodoko: you mean directly form hg from default branch?00:14
dokovirhilo: from the 2.7 branch, or rebuild the oneiric package on natty00:15

lfaraoneWould having update-manager source its mirror lists from the web be a useful feature to implement?01:47
lfaraoneI noticed that in Lucid, several mirrors don't even exist anymore. (washdc-linux.com was squatted)01:48
ohsixi thought it did already01:48
ohsixthe mirror chooser tries to connect to all of them just the same; to see if they work and how fast/close they are, so bad ones won't hurt much01:49
lfaraoneohsix: /usr/share/update-manager/mirrors.cfg is where the mirror list is sourced from.01:49
ohsixok01:50
lfaraoneohsix: the mirror picker does do a download test, but people manually picking will choose bad mirrors sometimes.01:53

persialfaraone, I believe there was a discussion at UDS about an entirely new and better way to select mirrors.  I may be mistaken, but I'd encourage you to review the specification list just in case (unless someone gives you a good answer sooner)02:33

micahghi pitti , I'm looking at bug 775900 for SRU, I think the idea is to upload the version in oneiric to natty, I was thinking of just adding a changelog entry on top with the version 2.0.0-0ubuntu0.1, WDYT?05:50

pittibut I don't mind much either way05:52
micahgpitti: ah, yeah, it's for an SRU05:53
pittiright, but technically it's still a backport05:53

micahgpitti: hmm, I just compared a debdiff of the archive versions and it doesn't exactly match the debdiff in the bug...05:54
pittimicahg: diff that causes problems? I. e. new dependency, major changes, etc? or just autoconf noise?05:58
micahgpitti: idk, supposedly he diff'd the same versions I did05:58

kenwsHi there, I'd like to rebuild the firefox deb with an additional compiler flag. From looking at the files in the debian directoy it seems that debian/mozconfig would be the appropriate one, correct? Another option might be to just set the C[XX]FLAGS in debian/rules. Any suggestions are appreciated.11:48

hallyn_afkpitti: I've sent a new source package to the libcap2 debian maintainer in the hopes that he'll push it and we can sync (to fix an open bug in both debian and ubuntu).  Is there any problem with waiting and syncing, as opposed to pushing it to oneiric myself?14:59
ramviIs there an apt configuration which tells Ubuntu to choose package-ubuntu packages instead of debian packages?15:01
ScottKramvi: The only way to do this is not have Debian repositories in your sources.list.  This is also highly recommended as Ubuntu makes no attempt at all to maintain binary compatibility with Debian.15:05

cyphermoxbroder: ev: those who want to use connman can already do so by installing connman/indicator-network and it works okay for simple requirements (wifi, wired, etc)15:11
brodercyphermox: Right, but we won't be switching to it by default anytime soon15:12
dokocjwatson: how urgent is this? would rather try to move to llvm-2.915:12

GunnarHjcjwatson: Hi Colin, any chance that you can review/sponsor a very small im-switch merge + upload to natty-proposed? It's a regression thing, and the proposed change is important to input method users, so the natty-proposed part is kind of urgent. https://code.launchpad.net/~gunnarhj/ubuntu/oneiric/im-switch/lp-663776/+merge/6168316:04
cjwatsonGunnarHj: sure, looking16:06
cjwatsonGunnarHj: perhaps change xinput.d/default as well?  (maybe only in oneiric, since it's a conffile so might prompt merges)16:08
GunnarHjcjwatson: The reason I didn't include it is that that is just a description of how it used to be, and not part of the actual code.16:11
cjwatsonyou don't think it's effectively documentation?16:13
cjwatsonhmm, I suppose not really16:13
GunnarHjcjwatson: I'm not sure. Happy to change default also if you really want me to.16:14
cjwatsonGunnarHj: I honestly think this is a bit bizarre though16:15
cjwatsonLC_CTYPE = character type => obvious choice for input method handling16:15
cjwatsonLC_MESSAGES = translation selection => nothing to do with input methods16:15
cjwatsonare you sure the real bug isn't in language selector for failing to set the right set of locale elements?16:15
GunnarHjcjwatson: I thought of that; and maybe it is (and/or GDM). But changing the set of env. variable in l-s and gdm is a bigger thing. Could we possibly consider this a hack that is good enough for now, and reconsider l-s + gdm later on (and maybe reverse the hack)?16:18
cjwatsonGunnarHj: sure, as long as that's borne in mind and recorded somewhere16:20
GunnarHjcjwatson: Promise I'll file a bug about it. :)16:20
cjwatsonthanks16:21

ohsixmaybe a package that'd build the modules that it needed :[21:28

brodermaco: wait...really? ...because i have 7.1.4 working on 11.04 using the system gtk21:28
maco7.1.4 was released a few weeks before 11.04 came out, finally including patches to work with the new GTK and the kernel, so it'll run on 11.04, but it's not *supported*21:28

macoup through the end of march, you had to find the right thread on the vmware forums telling you what to do with ldd to make it go21:29
ohsixhm21:32
ohsixit's just a drag; it's one or the other when you're testing alphas/betas21:32

ohsixthanks for the info about 7.1.4, going to try it out21:33
