| dholbach | hi philipballew | 07:13 |
| philipballew | good day in your neck of the woods I hope | 07:13 |
| dholbach | I'm sure it will be :) | 07:17 |
| philipballew | Most excellent! | 07:21 |
| pibara | I'm not quite sure what to do with respect to getting a library I wrote into universe. I've added a script for generating a proper deb package (for amd64) from the source tree, and probably could do the same for other architectures (to what I don't have access). Should I look for an existing universe maintainer willing to add my package to universe, or go trough the mentor thingy to become one myself? I would prefer the first, but not sure if this is possible, | 07:32 |
| pibara | Anyone who could advice me on that? Do I look for a universe maintainer (if so where do I find one), or do I need to go trough the mentor mill to become one myself? | 07:37 |
| pibara | For some more context, its a C++ JSON parsing library build on top of the GLIB JSON C library. | 07:42 |

| pibara | micahg: tnx | 08:17 |

| hakermania | tumbleweed: some time you suggested me to work on other projects too, while you'll be looking on mine, or something like that. Were you reffering to bug fixes? | 09:38 |
| tumbleweed | hakermania: I mean if you are hanging around in #ubuntu-motu, you could help out with Ubuntu :) see the links in the topic | 09:39 |
| hakermania | tumbleweed, would love to | 09:42 |
| jtaylor | is this supposed to throw an exception in python2.7? import locale; locale.normalize(u"en_US") | 10:49 |
| jtaylor | it works without unicode | 10:49 |
| tumbleweed | jtaylor: works on debian | 11:45 |
| Pici | jtaylor: works on Ubuntu (Natty) as well. | 11:47 |
| jtaylor | o_O | 11:47 |
| jtaylor | does not work in my unstable chroot | 11:48 |
| tumbleweed | ah, this was on testing, you're right re unstable | 11:50 |
| jtaylor | its a python 2.7.2 regression then | 11:50 |
| jtaylor | introduced by this patch: http://bugs.python.org/issue1813 | 11:51 |
| tumbleweed | that looks about right | 11:53 |
| tumbleweed | so, what does it break? | 11:54 |
| jtaylor | playonlinux and aptdaemon | 11:54 |
| jtaylor | the latter was fixed | 11:54 |
| jtaylor | or worked around | 11:54 |
| jtaylor | former patch submitted to debian | 11:54 |
| jtaylor | but it will break a lot of wx code | 11:55 |
| jtaylor | wx.Locale.GetCanonicalName returns unicode | 11:55 |
| tumbleweed | :/ | 11:56 |
| jtaylor | reported upstream http://bugs.python.org/issue12752 | 11:59 |
| jtaylor | Should I report it against python package too? | 12:08 |
| jtaylor | and put all bugs duplicate against it | 12:08 |
| jtaylor | found 3 already | 12:08 |
| systemclient | given that my package was accepted into debian unstable, what do I have to do to get it into ubuntu? | 12:09 |
| tumbleweed | jtaylor: yes (against python2.7), it sounds like we should do something in Debian/Ubuntu about it. | 12:10 |
| tumbleweed | systemclient: we're in feature freeze, so file a sync request witha feature freeze exception | 12:10 |
| systemclient | tumbleweed: or wait till 12.04? | 12:10 |
| tumbleweed | systemclient: you can do that too. But, we are only a few days into feature freeze. if it's a leaf package you'd like to see in oneiric, you can file a request | 12:11 |
| systemclient | tumbleweed: what is a leaf package? Nothing depends on it? | 12:12 |
| tumbleweed | yes | 12:12 |
| systemclient | that is the case … I'll look into sync requests tonight then | 12:13 |
| systemclient | thank you! | 12:13 |
| jtaylor | can someone set it to triaged? maybe also set importance: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python2.7/+bug/824734 | 12:20 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu bug 824734 in python2.7 (Ubuntu) "locale.normalize does not accept unicode: TypeError in normalize(): character mapping must return integer, None or unicode" [Undecided,Confirmed] | 12:20 |
| Laney | jtaylor: please get bug control ;-) | 12:21 |
| Laney | what importance would you set? | 12:21 |
| jtaylor | as it affects some core components (update-manage) I#d say high | 12:22 |
| paultag | Yeah, I agree | 12:22 |
| paultag | it breaks unrelated software. Setting now | 12:22 |
| Laney | just testing | 12:23 |
| paultag | jtaylor: all set. Thanks for picking that one out :) | 12:23 |
| nigelb | jtaylor: I'd +1 Laney's suggestion. Please get bug control or alternatively MOTU :) | 12:23 |
| Laney | bug control should be much quicker | 12:24 |
| Laney | no reason to not get it based on some other pending application | 12:24 |
| paultag | yar, -bugs is fairly active | 12:24 |
| paultag | honestly I thought this was bugs until I checked | 12:24 |
| nigelb | heh | 12:24 |
| jtaylor | sent an application for bug control | 13:43 |
| nigelb | stuck in moderation, should come in, in a few | 13:46 |
| jtaylor | someone here a member of debian-gnome and can sponsor meld(exp)? | 14:26 |
| jtaylor | it ould allow fixing a bunch of ugly meld bugs in natty | 14:26 |
| Laney | have you pinged in there? | 14:27 |
| jtaylor | the debian maintainer did a couple fo times already | 14:27 |
| Laney | ok | 14:29 |
| Laney | i'll do it later | 14:29 |
| jtaylor | great thanks | 14:29 |
| hggdh | jtaylor: OK. You got the first +1 on -control ;-) | 15:58 |
| micahg | jtaylor: BTW, dev membership includes bug control :) | 16:36 |
| tumbleweed | so apply already | 17:07 |
| Laney | how can I tell svn-bp that I have an orig.tar.xz? | 17:10 |
| jtaylor | by patching it | 17:10 |
| jtaylor | meld was uploaded already | 17:10 |
| jtaylor | it wasn't you? | 17:10 |
| Laney | no | 17:11 |
| Laney | someone did it? | 17:11 |
| jtaylor | yes short while ago | 17:11 |
| Laney | fair | 17:12 |
| Laney | still, it needs patching to do that? | 17:12 |
| Laney | what a hunk | 17:12 |
| jtaylor | its easier to fix than pristine-tar needed for git-bp :/ | 17:12 |
| Laney | pristine-tar: committed meld_1.5.2.orig.tar.xz.delta to branch pristine-tar | 17:14 |
| Laney | seems like the delta is the entire file | 17:14 |
| Laney | works though | 17:15 |
| tumbleweed | hrm, I notice ubuntu-sponsoring no longer things MOTUs can upload to universe | 18:27 |
| tumbleweed | thinks | 18:27 |
| tumbleweed | Laney: I wonder if that was due to going anonymous | 18:27 |
| micahg | tumbleweed: what do you mean? | 18:33 |
| tumbleweed | micahg: bold vs italic on the sponsorship overview | 18:33 |
| micahg | ah, yes, I noticed that | 18:34 |
| Laney | tumbleweed: why would it? | 18:42 |
| Laney | sounds like an api bug if so | 18:42 |
| Laney | can you run the method manually | 18:42 |
| Laney | ? | 18:42 |
| * Laney is cooking ATM, then DMB — sorry | 18:42 | |
| Laney | it was a fairly uninvolved change from my side :P | 18:43 |
| geser | Laney: thanks for the reminder | 18:43 |
| Laney | heh heh | 18:47 |
| * Laney hopes maco and persia can make it too | 18:47 | |
| paultag | I thought maco steped down from the DMB | 18:47 |
| paultag | thought I got an email about that | 18:47 |
| geser | paultag: she is | 18:48 |
| tumbleweed | Laney: yeah I should look at it properly too. I remember the api call being horrible (you determine True or false by whether you get an exception or not): P | 18:48 |
| geser | paultag: we hope she will be available till the vote for her replacement | 18:49 |
| === hannesw__ is now known as hannesw | ||
| paultag | geser: ah, right. CoC and all that | 18:49 |
| Laney | tumbleweed: actually I remember somethign weird about that call | 18:51 |
| Laney | perhaps it wasn't a function of the launchpad object? | 18:52 |
| tumbleweed | actually maybe that was the call as me. after supper... | 18:52 |
| geser | tumbleweed: it might be really that anon is not enough. If I did my quick api test correctly then distribution.main_archive.getPermissionsForPerson(person=person) returns an empty list which results in False for person_can_upload (assuming that the first part of function doesn't return anything) | 18:58 |
| Laney | why would that be? | 18:59 |
| geser | I didn't check each call of the function but IIRC the second part was needed too (I asked about it in the past when writing a similar function for requestsync) | 19:05 |
| tumbleweed | geser: this sounds like a bug in launchpad | 19:06 |
| tumbleweed | yeah I see the empty list vs populated list when logged in | 19:06 |
| === med_out is now known as medberry | ||
| paultag | Hey MOTU | 19:39 |
| paultag | does anyone remember what we did after warty warthog when the release name+1 was < then the stable release? | 19:39 |
| paultag | was there a massive debian-local version bump and rebuild or what? | 19:40 |
| paultag | e.g. package-1.0~warty1 > package-1.0~dapper1 | 19:41 |
| * tumbleweed wasn't an ubuntu-user in those days, but was it such a big issue? Was the release name in many package versions? | 19:41 | |
| Laney | I can only think of backports, and I'm not sure if that existed then | 19:42 |
| tumbleweed | well, people could use a release name in SRU versions too | 19:42 |
| ScottK | It was not part of the archive. It was on sourceforge. | 19:42 |
| paultag | right | 19:42 |
| ScottK | (project is still there if you're interested in historical artifacts) | 19:42 |
| paultag | ScottK: do you seem to remember what was done for when this happend, or what the plan is post Zadjective Zanimal ? | 19:43 |
| ScottK | paultag: It was before my time (I started with Dapper). | 19:43 |
| paultag | Ah, I need someone from badger-era :) | 19:44 |
| paultag | humm. I'm betting good money Debian has to deal with this after wheezy | 19:44 |
| paultag | they append the version ID to migrations, I think | 19:44 |
| paultag | Oh wait, SRUs, right | 19:45 |
| micahg | well, they use versions in backports usually, not codenames | 19:45 |
| tumbleweed | paultag: even then it won't affect that many packages | 19:45 |
| tumbleweed | micahg: +squeeze1 is common for SPU (SRU in debian) | 19:45 |
| paultag | tumbleweed: well the changes would be pushed to unstable as well with a bump | 19:45 |
| paultag | even if it's a NMU it should work OK | 19:45 |
| micahg | tumbleweed: yes, but that packages is usually superceded in testing | 19:46 |
| tumbleweed | micahg: yes, and it'll only be an issue if it isn't | 19:46 |
| micahg | I would expect the stable release team in Debian to prevent such things from occuring :) | 19:47 |
| tumbleweed | you'll never have copy-up from spu to testing or tpu to unstable. The only way it could happen is if something was tpu-ed and never migrated from unstable again until the next release. not going to happen :) | 19:53 |

| * tumbleweed can't remember why I've got a netatalk beta in my ppa, but it seems to generate lots of e-mail from people to me, wanting new releases | 22:03 | |
| tumbleweed | clearly they can't read the "This PPA is my personal play-ground, and full of weeds. Don't expect anything to not break your system or to still be here tomorrow." | 22:03 |
| ajmitch | it's not one of those things that you expect people to still be using these days | 22:03 |
| Laney | google for "$software ppa", add first result, ???, profit | 22:04 |
| Laney | second result in this instance (after the ubuntu +source page) | 22:04 |
| tumbleweed | Laney: hrm, that's probably it | 22:05 |
| tumbleweed | oh well I'll do a new upload then. /me pleases the anonymous masses | 22:05 |
| Laney | yeah, having (some) PPAs not be indexed by search engines would be good | 22:05 |
| ajmitch | I see that oneiric at least has a recent release of it | 22:06 |
| tumbleweed | apparently there's a 2.2 final release out | 22:06 |
| ajmitch | released only ~3 weeks ago, too | 22:07 |
| ajmitch | I didn't know anyone still cared about AFP | 22:07 |
| === Quintasan_ is now known as Quintasan | ||
| === kklimonda is now known as Guest71858 | ||
| Laney | tumbleweed: there's a backport request for 2.2 final too | 23:19 |
| Laney | fancy it? :-) | 23:19 |
| broder | haha, i was just looking at that bug | 23:20 |
| tumbleweed | Laney: we'd have to get it into oneiric first | 23:20 |
| tumbleweed | broder: I was just about to ask you to review it :) | 23:20 |
| tumbleweed | broder: (err ubuntu-be--tools if that's what you were asking about) | 23:20 |
| Laney | yep | 23:20 |
| Laney | and before that, sid — right? :P | 23:21 |
| broder | tumbleweed: wait, huh? i was referring to the backport request | 23:21 |
| tumbleweed | Laney: ok, I got it to build with the addition of a patch called "compile-dammit" | 23:21 |
| tumbleweed | broder: I just fixed the backportpackage local dsc bug | 23:21 |
| tumbleweed | well, discovered I'd fixed it during debconf | 23:21 |
| broder | tumbleweed: +1 | 23:21 |
| broder | i'll take a look | 23:22 |
| tumbleweed | Laney: so, sure, I'll give jonas my patches (which are all upstream bugs), and remind him that he has desparate users | 23:22 |
| Laney | excellent | 23:23 |
| broder | tumbleweed: where's the patch? | 23:26 |
| broder | tumbleweed: nvm, found it | 23:28 |
| tumbleweed | broder: ok, I'll merge it and upload to Debian | 23:35 |
| tumbleweed | Laney: aha "I found a link to your ubuntu repository on the ubuntu forum about Time Machine Backup with lion." That kind of thing gives google hints :) | 23:46 |
