hrwwhat is a proper way to upload NEW package to ubuntu and get PPU for it?09:46
gesersponsporing09:46
hrwok09:46
geserLP only lets add PPU rights for existing source packages09:47
hrwok09:48
geserso you have to find someone who does the first upload for you and once LP knows about the source package PPU rights can get added09:48
hrwhttp://home.haerwu.biz/~hrw/ubuntu/ has my gcc-4.6-armel-cross 1.48 package. will try to find someone who will take a look at it and do uplaod for me09:48
evaluateIf the package isn't ubuntu specific, it would be best to upload it to Debian first and then request a sync though, wouldn't it?09:49
hrwevaluate: for now it cant be uploaded into ubuntu09:49
hrwevaluate: I have 6 packages which are on a way to Debian. this is one of them09:49
evaluateI see.09:50
hrwevaluate: have to convince Debian Kernel team first that my patch is really worth adding09:50
hrwevaluate: https://wiki.linaro.org/MarcinJuszkiewicz/Projects/MergeCrossToolchainIntoDebian09:51
geserhrw: as your PPU rights for gcc-4.6-armel-cross got approved together with with your other packages, you just need to find someone to do the initial upload and prod a TB member later to add the PPU rights for it09:53
hrwgeser: I will do that09:53

nigelbgeser: I talked to dholbach, we can do the whole activity inside harvest of getting the ftbfs marked appropriately.11:32
nigelbI'm now making sure the data gets imported.  Harvest using the karmic csv unfortunately :/11:32

tumbleweedbdrung_: had a look at my udt todo list today, couldn't remember a few details so listened to the recording. Looks like our audio stream was just static :/15:57
bdrung_tumbleweed: static?15:58
tumbleweedwhite noise15:58
bdrung_tumbleweed: do you have the url to it?15:59
tumbleweedhttp://mirrors.tumbleweed.org.za/uds-o/2011-05-12-06-55-other-o-udt-upstreaming.ogg16:00
bdrung_tumbleweed: one  todo item is to get the final names for http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=collab-maint/release-info.git16:01
tumbleweedyup, that's what I'm busy writing an e-mail on16:01
bdrung_that stream contains silence16:02
tumbleweedyeah16:02
tumbleweedbdrung_: so, IIRC, ftp-masters wanted it into devscripts, but now launchpad would like it to be a separate package, so we are asking derivatives front desk what it should be called?16:06
bdrung_tumbleweed: yes16:07
achiangfta: micahg: ping, i managed to build chromium 11 on lucid/ARM. the same package almost worked, just needed one minor change: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/615405/16:31
achiangfta: micahg: need to add line 9 to debian/rules and then it builds16:31
ftaachiang, jpegturbo? it's already in the last upload16:32
ftaachiang, http://paste.ubuntu.com/615408/  but maybe micahg didn't merge it down16:34
achiangfta: could entirely be my fault. i may not have grabbed the latest package. but the short fyi is that the package does indeed built on ARM16:35
ftaachiang, i'm more concerned about https://launchpadlibrarian.net/72379090/buildlog_ubuntu-oneiric-armel.chromium-browser_11.0.696.71~r86024-0ubuntu1_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz16:36
ftaachiang, 100% reproducible ld crashes on oneiric16:36
achiangfta: ah, that might be the toolchain problem that micahg was worried about. i haven't had a chance to debug that one yet16:38
bdrung_tumbleweed: thanks for the mail. the mail doesn't make it clear, that we are searching for a name for 'distro-info' script and library and not only for the package16:39
Laneydoesn't launchpad have its own API for getting that information?16:40
Laneyi.e. why would they want to use such a library?16:40
tumbleweedbdrung_: care to reply then?16:42
bdrung_tumbleweed: maybe after lunch16:42
tumbleweedlunch at 6pm? :)16:43
bdrung_tumbleweed: yes16:47
bdrung_tumbleweed: i eat lunch between 12 and 23 o'clock16:47
tumbleweedheh, us geeks aren't very good at sticking to normal schedules16:48

LaserJockanybody know what this might mean when building a source package:18:55
LaserJockdh clean --with python2,python318:55
LaserJockdh: unable to load addon python3: Can't locate Debian/Debhelper/Sequence/python3.pm18:55
cjwatsonmissing build-dependency on (something that depends on) python3?18:57
LaserJockI'll try python3-all and see if that works19:00
cjwatsondoesn't python policy prescribe a particular dependency?19:01
LaserJockwell, this thing has 4 python3 build dependencies19:02
LaserJockI just need a source package out, so I was trying to install the minimum amount needed19:02
LaserJockhmm, is debuild used still?19:03
LaserJockI'm trying to build a natice source package and I get: dpkg-source: error: can't build with source format '3.0 (quilt)': no orig.tar file found19:04
LaserJockshouldn't it create a .tar for me?19:04
micahgLaserJock: should be 3.0 (native) if it's native19:04
LaserJockhmm, ok19:05
LaserJockwell, maybe I'm going about this the wrong way19:05
LaserJockI've got a bzr branch that I'm trying to make a source package from. I don't know if there is a orig.tar or not, I assumed it was native19:06
=== _stink__ is now known as _stink_
cjwatsonif it's non-native, you need to get the orig.tar somehow; either there's pristine-tar data on the branch to allow bzr to figure it out (there sometimes is) or else you have to fetch it independently19:07
cjwatsonthe auto-importer deals with pristine-tar data, but that won't necessarily hold for branches people have assembled in other ways19:07
=== medberry is now known as med_eatz
maxbLaserJock: Generally 'bzr builddeb -S' (or just 'bzr bd -S') and let bzr-builddeb figure out what to do19:10
maxbIt's quite clever at retrieving necessary tarballs from whereever it can find them19:10
LaserJock< grabbing bzr-builddeb >19:12
LaserJockmaxb: that seemed to work, I have no idea what it did but it spit out a source package :-)19:14
maxbEarly in the output it will have printed information on where it found an upstream tarball to ue19:15
maxb*use19:15
maxbOh, and it will have done its temporary work in ../build-area/ ftr19:16
LaserJockhttp://launchpad.net/python-distutils-extra/trunk/2.27/+download/python-distutils-extra-2.27.tar.gz19:16
LaserJockwhat does that mean? it got it from the archives?19:16
maxbThat link points to an upstream project's download site, that just happens to be on launchpad19:18
LaserJockoh, ok19:19
maxbSo, no, it didn't fetch it from the Ubuntu/Debian archive19:19
maxbIt may have asked uscan to locate a tarball based on the content of debian/watch19:19
LaserJockit did, but said it couldn't find it19:23
LaserJockoh, no19:23
LaserJockit tried get-orig-source19:24
LaserJockuscan worked19:24
micahgachiang: thanks for testing chromium, I'll throw up builds tonight with that change19:36
achiangmicahg: np19:38
micahgachiang: do you have systems where you can smoke test the binaries?19:40
micahgI have natty set up ATM19:41
achiangmicahg: hm, i have lucid/armel systems to test on19:42
micahgachiang: k, would you be willing to smoke test chromium armel?19:42
achiangmicahg: yes, i can do so19:42
achiangmicahg: just need you to ping me, please (unless there's a way to subscribe to a build or something)19:42
micahgachiang: cool, thanks, I"ll ping when the builds are available19:42
achiangmicahg: great, thanks19:43

xdatap1hi everybody20:58
xdatap1just an info. The mail from Kate on the ubuntu-devel-announce@lists.ubuntu.com about soft freeze affects only main or also universe? I'm a newbie and I'm working on a merge, in case I'll wait next days20:59
micahgxdatap1: anything seeded20:59
micahgxdatap1: what package?20:59
xdatap1micahg, it's dspam21:00
micahgxdatap1: should be fine21:00
xdatap1micahg, ok, thanks21:00
cjwatsonI think it's more accurate to say "anything that goes on CD images" rather than "anything seeded"21:01
cjwatson(and probably clearer to most people)21:01
xdatap1cjwatson, great thanks, now it's very clear :)21:01
cjwatsonthough I need to correct myself, I should just say "images" to cover DVDs and such as well21:02

ScottKLaney: Could you set up the transition tracker for the boost1.42 -> boost1.46 transition?  Bad is anything with *boost*1.42* in depends/build-depends.  Good is anything *boost* that's not !1.42 (i.e. either unversioned or using 1.46).23:20
* ajmitch hopes that not too many patches are needed for the transition23:21
cjwatsonScottK: you have permissions to do it directly23:21
ScottKcjwatson: Permissions but not knowing how.23:22
ScottK(and I'm trying specifically to avoid learning it this week)23:22
cjwatsonfair enough23:22
LaneyI'll just use true for is_good for now.23:33
LaneyScottK: http://paste.ubuntu.com/615544/ look ok?23:33
Laneywith the missing semicolon23:33
ajmitchwill the link to the transition tracker fit in the channel topic?23:34
ScottKLaney: Looks reasonable.23:34
ScottKProbably more important than something there.23:34
Laneypushed23:34
ScottKWhere do I find it?23:36
Laneyupdates at :55 IIRC23:37
ScottKAfter that?23:37
Laneyat http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/transitions/23:37
ScottKThanks.23:37
ajmitchok, so I was even looking at the wrong URL23:38
* ajmitch should have read further in the thread23:38
