| stlsaint | would anyone mind taking a look at these errors at the bottom of this paste: http://paste.debian.net/124453/ | 06:13 |
|---|---|---|
| geser | stlsaint: the problem are probably those two "fail" in line 35 and 38: try adding "m4" and "curl" to Build-Depends | 06:27 |
| stlsaint | micahg: the package is calling for some programs that are not in the official repositories for ubuntu | 07:09 |
| stlsaint | micahg: i am tryign to help someone else debug some failed handbrake build attempts | 07:09 |
| stlsaint | afk for now | 07:09 |
| dupondje | micahg: thanks for checking the libjpeg-dev shizzle | 07:12 |
| dupondje | if we get that fixed, it seems alot of packages will build again :D | 07:12 |
| artfwo | in comments to a revu upload http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/p/indicator-cpufreq i was advised to update Standards-Version to 3.9.2, but now lintian complains it's too new: http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/revu1-incoming/indicator-cpufreq-1107290924/lintian | 07:26 |
| artfwo | should i decrease it back to 3.9.1? | 07:26 |
| geser | artfwo: no, lintian on REVU just don't know 3.9.2 yet | 07:31 |
| artfwo | ah, okay | 07:31 |
| artfwo | so, the issues in revu are worked out, if anyone feels like sponsoring a package (url above), please do so :) | 07:37 |

| bobweaver | hi there I would like to learn more about how a distro like ubuntu is put together upstreams and how it is all put together wouls love any links thanks | 09:07 |
| artfwo | bobweaver: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment might be a good overview | 09:41 |
| === korn_ is now known as c_korn | ||
| ojap | Hi, I'm looking to contribute code to Ubuntu and have gone through setting up my environment. I was just wondering if anyone can give me some advice on the next stages I need to take to find a suitable bug. | 15:27 |
| broder | ojap: you could try taking a look at http://harvest.ubuntu.com/opportunities/, but what a "suitable bug" is would depend a lot on your background and skillset | 15:32 |
| ojap | broder: I have had a look at the Harvest site, I am a comp sci student with experience in a few different languages, looking to start with simple bugs to begin with | 15:35 |
| broder | ojap: sounds like the bitesize bugs would be a good place to start, then | 15:36 |
| broder | ojap: note that the default view is limited to packages that are part of ubuntu-desktop, but i don't think that will include things like core plumbing packages | 15:38 |
| broder | and definitely won't include packages that aren't on the ubuntu desktop CD | 15:38 |
| broder | so you could remove the limit if you wanted to widen your search some | 15:38 |
| === al-maisan is now known as almaisan-away | ||
| ojap | broder: Yeah, bitesize bugs to begin with - just trying to find something suitable. | 15:44 |
| ojap | broder: Maybe looking for a typo or something similar just to understand the process. | 15:49 |
| broder | ojap: i can look and see if i spot something that looks easy | 15:52 |
| ojap | broder: any help would be great, thanks | 15:55 |
| broder | ojap: bug #791866 and bug #793554 basically amount to typo bugs, and it'd be fairly straightforward to fix them both simultaneously | 15:59 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 791866 in upstart (Ubuntu) "Add emits stanza for unmounted-remote-filesystems" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/791866 | 15:59 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 793554 in dbus (Ubuntu) "Add emits stanza for deconfiguring-networking" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/793554 | 15:59 |
| broder | i would also poke around and see if there are any other similar bugs that you could roll into one fix | 15:59 |
| ojap | thanks everyone - understanding how to branch the code and then actually fixing the code is going to take me a little while to get working | 16:09 |
| broder | hmm...anybody know if harvest is running on the same machine as the sponsor queue? there are several bugs in harvest that are marked fix released | 16:11 |
| tumbleweed | broder: very different IPs | 16:13 |
| broder | tumbleweed: so they are. i guess i'll just have to harass dholbach next time he's around | 16:13 |
| micahg | broder: he's on vacation :) | 16:13 |
| * broder is in no rush :) | 16:14 | |
| broder | aha - harvest pulls from http://reports.qa.ubuntu.com/reports/launchpad-database/bitesize.csv | 16:15 |
| broder | which *would* be the same server as the sponsor queue :) | 16:15 |
| tumbleweed | yup | 16:15 |
| micahg | broder: so, you can file a bug against the ubuntu-qa-website I think | 16:16 |
| broder | i think harvest is just behind on checking the csv file | 16:17 |
| micahg | well, now that you know the csv file, you can check if the bugs are in there | 16:18 |
| broder | they're not | 16:18 |
| broder | at least not the one i saw earlier | 16:18 |

| RenatoSilva | is there any other support channel, more advanced for ubuntu? #ubuntu is often useless to me. Example: alt+f2 stopped working, and the button for showing desktop on the bottom-left disappeared. | 21:24 |
| dtchen | 17:25 -!- Channel #ubuntu-power-users created Thu May 19 07:32:30 2011 | 21:25 |
| dtchen | ^^ RenatoSilva | 21:25 |
| dtchen | be aware that it won't be nearly as active | 21:25 |
| RenatoSilva | ok | 21:25 |
| RenatoSilva | tx | 21:26 |
| Laney | compared to #ubuntu, that might not be a bad thing :-) | 21:27 |
| RenatoSilva | ok thanks | 21:29 |
| jtaylor | us $(all_libraries) some special libtool/autotools variable? | 21:42 |
| jtaylor | ... some dpkg-shlisb warnings should really be made errors, nobody reads them | 21:58 |
| jtaylor | including me who submitted an incomplete patch for paps :/ | 22:00 |
