benonsoftwareQuestion: Is the MOTU mentor programme still running?03:37
benonsoftwareis the MOTU mentor programe dead?03:57
hyperairi think it's been suspended indefinitely?03:59
hyperairor something03:59
hyperairi haven't heard of anyone being mentored recently03:59
micahgbenonsoftware: you can just ask any questions you have here04:00
hyperairif you have any questions you can always come to irc and have someone here answer it anyway04:00
benonsoftwareOK.04:00
benonsoftwarehyperair: Why has it been suspended?04:00
hyperairbenonsoftware: because having people post on the list or on the irc channel is much better.04:00
hyperairit takes the load of a single person to answer04:00
hyperairand having more opinions on things are usually better04:01
hyperair(this is my speculation)04:01
benonsoftwarehyperair: I would perfear mentor rather than IRC or the list04:01
hyperairreason being?04:02

oierhi, I am trying to use dh_python2 to package my python app.  Do I have to drop distutils and remove the setup.py?07:52
dholbachgood morning07:56
oierHi Daniel, do you know if in order to use dh_python2, you have to drop distutils (and remove the setup.py)?07:58
dholbachoier, I'm no expert when it comes to this, but AFAIK dh_python2 only works on the packaging level, so changing any of the upstream project installation code sounds like too much08:24
dholbachdoes http://wiki.debian.org/Python/TransitionToDHPython2 help?08:25
oieryeah I checked that link08:29
oierI am trying to package my python app, which installs fine using distutils08:30
oierbut I am not sure if I have to remove the setup.py and replace it in the rules file08:30
geseroier: try asking in #debian-python on OFTC08:31
geserI'm pretty sure you don't need to remove it, the automagic python packaging relies on distutils08:32
oierok, thanks08:32
christitzehi, i'm trying to do a debuild -S but i get the following error: make: *** No rule to make target `/usr/share/quilt/quilt.make'.  Stop. dpkg-buildpackage: error: /usr/bin/fakeroot debian/rules clean gave error exit status 209:05
christitzedoes anybody know what i need to to do to make it work?09:05
geser"sudo apt-get install quilt"09:07
christitzethank you but now i get the error "make: dh_testdir: Command not found"09:09
geserinstall "debhelper"09:10
nigelbisn't there a meta package for all of those? devscripts?09:10
jtayloryes devscripts installs everything09:11
christitzeyes! it works now, thank you very much!09:13
christitzei think someone should edit the "fixing a bug in ubuntu" guide as there is no mention of the package devscripts and that's very bad for newbies like me09:15
gesernigelb: devscripts not really fulfills that role, the new meta-package "packaging-dev" (or similar) was made for this09:16
nigelbgeser: Ah, If we pull the depds with ubuntu-dev-tools, I'd say that makes sense too.09:17
gesernigelb: there was a discussion about it, u-d-t shouldn't depend on them as the tools don't need them, and u-d-t should be abused for that. the meta-package is the right way to do it09:24
nigelbgeser: Yeah, it does make sense. I was only suggesting a workaround :)09:26

oierhi13:34
oierI am trying to package my first python app13:35
oierif I use debuild the package builds fine and works as expected13:35
oierbut if I use pbuilder it fails13:35
gesermissing build-dependencies?13:35
oierI don't understand the error message very much, could you please help me?13:36
geserI can try13:36
oierhttps://launchpadlibrarian.net/74791069/buildlog_ubuntu-natty-i386.indicator-bug_0.1-0~23~natty1_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz13:36
oierthe error is where it says"dh_auto_install: python setup.py install --force --root=/build/buildd/indicator-bug-0.1/debian/indicator-bug --no-compile -O0 --install-layout=deb returned exit code 1"13:36
oierBTW you can grab the source at https://code.launchpad.net/~oier/indicator-bug/trunk13:37
geserthe command you pasted didn't exit successfully (it exited with exit code 1 instead of 0). This means something went wrong before that13:41
geserhere most likely the "error: Inappropriate ioctl for device" in the previous line is the real error13:41
oierany idea on what that means?13:42
gesernot really in this case13:45
=== med_out is now known as medberry2
geseroier: as the warning from InstallAndUpdateDataDirectory() is printed the next call would be to create_cfg_file13:48
geserand as that function doesn't print the uid and gid to the log I'd assume that either the os.getlogin() or pwd.getpwnam() fails13:49
oierthe ioctl error is only present when I try to build it in launchpad13:49
oierwith pbuilder that part looks like this http://paste.ubuntu.com/640142/13:49
geserthe buildds (and also pbuilder) use a minimal chroot for building13:50
geseryou can try "pbuilder login" to get a shell inside a pbuilder and experiment which of the both funktions fails13:51
oierso the best guess is that the control file is wrong because debuild works and pbuilder doesn't?13:52
geserdebuild runs in your normal system13:55
oiercould you maybe take a quick look at the control file to see if you spot a mistake?13:55
geseroier: I suspect the problem in setup.py as I'm not sure if create_cfg_file() will work on the buildds14:01
gesertry commenting out the call to create_cfg_file() in setup.py14:02
oierok14:02
geseryou create there a config file for the buildd user which won't end in the deb file anyways14:03
oierhow should I create the cfg file instead?14:04
oiergeser: your theory was correct!14:10
geseroier: during the first start of the application: if the config file isn't there then create it14:14
geserthat way every user gets a config file and not only that who installed the application14:14
oierok14:15
oierthank you very much14:15

tumbleweedyeah, those are easy to miss when test building :/18:52
jtaylortumbleweed: zebra debdiff http://paste.ubuntu.com/640304/19:04
jtaylorgpac does not seem to use sslv2, so just comment out the sslv2 function should do it19:08
