[03:33] <van7hu> hello
[03:33] <van7hu> Could anyone help me with Spidermonder?
[03:33] <van7hu> *SpiderMonkey
[03:34] <micahg> van7hu: what does that have to do with launchpad?
[03:34] <van7hu> SpiderMokey-bin in launchpad
[03:34] <TheEvilPhoenix> van7hu:  that's probably a project
[03:34] <TheEvilPhoenix> owned by someone else
[03:34] <TheEvilPhoenix> not by launchpad
[03:35] <van7hu> okay
[03:35]  * micahg remembers maxb added smjs to launchpad, but doesn't have more details
[03:36] <van7hu> https://launchpad.net/mozjs
[03:37] <micahg> van7hu: what about it?
[03:41] <van7hu> I want to have it to develop embedded javascript application, but not sure, if it's the right one that I need
[03:44] <micahg> van7hu: this channel is for help with launchpad, you might want #ubuntu-app-devel
[14:02] <exarkun> There is a gap in the revisions shown on https://code.launchpad.net/~divmod-dev/divmod.org/trunk :/
[14:05] <pfarrell_> hi! I'm trying to set up a build recipe. I have my recipe, and try building it locally, but get the error: bzr: ERROR: No such tag: upstream-0.1y phase:adding file 10/12
[14:05] <pfarrell_> I have no idea what this means, can anyone offer any suggestions?
[14:06] <pfarrell_> you can see the recipe at the bottom of https://code.launchpad.net/~pefarrell/+recipe/libadjoint-daily-fluidity
[20:51] <SteveExodus> dh_installexamples is converting and delivering my /usr/share/doc/example files >1kb as gz. Am I expected to run a postinst to unzip them? i am using dh_installexamples in a manual Makefile ... I wonder if that is the problem
[20:54] <maxb> no, modifying files installed like that in a postinst would be considered very wrong
[20:56] <maxb> is there a reason they cannot remain gzipped?
[20:57] <SteveExodus> well I expect the the users to use the examples easily .. not have to do some post install process
[20:57] <SteveExodus> either they are delivered unzipped or the poor user has to do the "postinst" manually
[20:58] <SteveExodus> i guess it is not expected to deliver examples zipped and there is nothing documented about dh_installexamples doing this
[21:04] <SteveExodus> debian policy mandates it
[21:04] <SteveExodus> html and css is exempted
[21:05] <SteveExodus> this is not convenient for consumers
[21:10] <SteveExodus> man dh_compress has the info
[21:20] <maxb> examples are things your users refer to occasionally
[21:22] <maxb> having them compressed is simply making responsible use of your users' disk
[21:28] <mwhudson> SteveExodus: 'less' transparently uncompresses .gz files
[21:28] <mwhudson> if you expect a user to find things in /usr/share/examples, i think you can expect them to know about less
[21:32] <SteveExodus> the examples are .py and .pl and I expect people to run them directly
[21:32] <mwhudson> ah, that's a bit grottier
[21:32] <SteveExodus> the space occupied is trivial so there is no advantage to delivering as .gz
[21:36] <SteveExodus> it is important to me not to get in the way of people using the examples .. i could force dh_compress not compress the files using its -x option but I would prefer a proper solution and one that doesnt impose a imo pointless barrier between the user-programmers and the examples
