ionHuh. Why is a beta version of Firefox 5 in natty-proposed?07:14
micahgion: to build the new language packs and for extended user testing, natty getting Firefox 5 as a security update on June 2107:17
micahgit's more of an RC, but it's from the "beta" channel07:18
ionUpgrading Firefox 4 to Firefox 5 is guaranteed not to break anything? All extensions will be compatible?07:20
micahgion: no, but we have no choice07:20
lifelession: upstream are not supporting 407:21
ionHow nice07:21
lifelession: and backporting security fixes from 5 to 4 is ... an interesting proposition07:21
micahgion: last number I saw was 76% extension compatibility07:21
micahgLucid and Maverick will be upgraded in the future as well, but for the moment 3.6 is supported07:22
directhexokay. i've isolated the thing that breaks mono on arm.09:34
directhexwell, "isolated"09:34
cjwatson_slangasek: given that debconf switched to git somewhere in there, perhaps the best strategy is either something like rebase-foreign, or else stitch something together with import-dsc; I expect it will be somewhat manual in any event ...09:34

cjwatsonslangasek: I've applied the GtkAssistant patch to debconf upstream now, for the next release09:51
directhexcjwatson: afaik both gcc 4.5 and 4.6 on ubuntu should target the same thing, right? i see the same --with-arch, --with-mode and --with-fpu flags for both09:57
cjwatsonI hadn't heard of target changes there, which doesn't necessarily mean there are none09:58
directhexi see a few removed flags as the only differences (--enable-gold --enable-ld=default --with-plugin-ld=ld.gold)10:00
directhexi want to be absolutely sure that i've done everything possible on my side - but i can't see much more I can do with my area of competence than say "an unmodified upstream tarball is okay with ubuntu gcc-4.5, and 4.6 on all arches except arm, so I think the issue is gcc-4.6 on arm"10:05
cjwatsondirecthex: have you tried building with -O0 on armel?10:20
directhexcjwatson, no. i'll do that next. see you in some hours!10:21
cjwatsondirecthex: if that works, bisect optimisation flags to try to narrow it down10:21
cjwatsonsimilarly if you're using any -fthingy options then play with those10:21
cjwatsondirecthex: there's no way to do anything incrementally?10:21
directhexcjwatson, not in a way i trust. it's "successfully" building the runtime, but the built runtime is "bad" and won't execute code properly. and i don't want to only partially rebuild when i don't know which thing is choking10:22

directhexcjwatson, the complete build isn't finished, but it looks like the -O0 build is okay13:11
cjwatsonOK, so now you get to figure out which optimisation broke it :-/13:12
directhexis O1 worth trying? i know it's the same as O2 on some compilers, i don't remember if that includes gcc13:13
=== jelmer_ is now known as jelmer
cjwatson-O1 is not the same as -O2 and is worth trying13:14

directhexlook like about 27 extra -ffoo flags from o0 to 01, and same from o1 to o2. so really, o1 is a bisect anyway :p13:18
cjwatsondirecthex: sure, it's just the first obvious-and-useful bisect13:24
directhexi just wish this process were faster :p13:24

* Daviey has come across 2 packages today where the only Ubuntu delta is dropping Depends on locales-all.. Why don't we have this?18:30
Davieywould it be cheaper to have a locales-all meta package to locales, than maintaining this?18:31
slangaseklocales-all and locales aren't the same thing; locales-all is a package that contains pre-generated locales for all packages18:31
slangasekwhat packages have a dependency on this in Debian?18:31
Davieyslangasek, i just saw python-django... and there was another one i uploaded yesterday... lemme check18:32
slangaseka quick look at stable shows only openoffice.org-l10n packages, gforge-web-apache2, and libc618:32
slangasekpython-django> no earthly reason that should depend on locales-all in Debian either18:32
slangasekand I don't see that it *does* in unstable or stable18:33
Davieyslangasek, is your search returning build-depends aswell?18:35
slangasekoh, you didn't say build-depends ;)18:35
Davieysorry18:35
slangaseklocales-all as a metapackage depending on locales *definitely* wouldn't satisfy a build-dep18:36
slangasekpackages that need locales at build time should really generate them themselves18:36
slangasekthat's in both Debian and Ubuntu, I mean18:37
DavieyHmm18:39
* Daviey is looking for the other example18:39
DavieyGah, can't find it - i was certain i saw another.18:44
slangasekDaviey: well, python-django in unstable seems to have added a build-dep alternative on the en langpack, so it looks like that delta could be dropped now19:11
=== Tonio__ is now known as Tonio_aw
slangasekalso, I've just looked up the correct env vars and commandlines to use a locale from a local directory, so I'll probably submit that as a patch to python-django and blog the recipe for later use19:12
Davieyslangasek, I'll watch out for that, thanks.. Kinda frustrated i can't find the other package i saw it.19:13
slangasekDaviey: libapache2-mod-perl2? php5?19:17
Davieyslangasek, was just looking at php5 :)19:17
Davieylocales-all. -- Now has alternative language-pack-de for use in tests. <--19:17
Davieybut yes, the one i was thinking of was libapache2-mod-perl219:19
Davieythanks19:19
smoserDaviey, slangasek i had tried building python-django, tihnking it might just build19:28
smoserbut http://paste.ubuntu.com/626043/19:28
Davieyslangasek: So, it seems the delta with python-django was never needed.. Seems that it was really an issue with sbuild's dep handling.19:44

Davieymicahg: you are saying that it is OK for this to FTBFS, Build-Depend: foo (>=X) | bar ?19:49
