[03:34] <CarlFK> where are packaging scripts usually stored in relation to the source code repository?  like if I wanted to package http://code.google.com/p/jujuutils/ would I check out it out, add debian/*, create a repo on lp and push it all there?
[03:36] <CarlFK> or just push debian/* and have a reference to the rev of http://code.google.com/p/jujuutils
[03:42] <MattJ> Hi all, I can't find anywhere docs on the process for getting a security update uploaded to the archive... pointers?
[03:44] <MattJ> Oh wait, I think I found it a few links further down the track :)
[03:57] <sladen> MattJ: file a bug, attach a patch, get it sponsored by the security-team
[03:58] <MattJ> Ok, thanks
[03:58] <sladen> CarlFK: check it out.  Add your the  debian/  directory.    debuild -S   and upload
[03:59] <sladen> CarlFK: (you could of course keep the combined result in git aswell and merge from new upstream versions
[04:02] <CarlFK> sladen: I know I could.. I am wondering if there is a convention.
[04:03] <sladen> CarlFK: many conventions :-)  The only thing in-common is the  debuild -S  and  dput ppa:...  step :)
[04:04] <CarlFK> i guess dput does store the source. and changelog has enough commit history/comments.  hmm.
[04:06] <sladen> CarlFK: well, one causes the output of a "source package" and the other uploads that to LP
[04:07] <sladen> CarlFK: those steps can be done manually with lots of low-level commands (eg. FTP), but it's a massive hassle
[05:22] <CarlFK> sladen: yeah, I was more thinking of them like compile and post a binary.
[05:45] <sladen> CarlFK: the system does the building for you
[23:31] <Laney> anyone fancy doing a bunch of no-change rebuilds? ;)
[23:31] <Laney> good for your karma...
[23:33]  * ScottK bets Laney has a fence that needs whitewashing too.
[23:34] <Laney> there /is/ a pile of washing up in the kitchen :-)
[23:34]  * Laney writes a script instead
[23:35] <X3lectric> so go do it
[23:35] <X3lectric> its great for your karma
[23:35] <Laney> what?
[23:37] <X3lectric> what or why?
[23:39] <ScottK> http://www.pbs.org/marktwain/learnmore/writings_tom.html <-- for those unfamiliar with the whitewashing a fence story (caution: archaic language)
