| micahg | slangasek: BTW, aptitude seems to fail miserably at multiarch deps | 06:21 |
|---|---|---|
| slangasek | micahg: oh? | 06:22 |
| micahg | yeah | 06:22 |
| micahg | oh, maybe not, I'm confused now...well, I have the old e-d-s-common installed | 06:24 |
| micahg | before I installed all the i386 libs for flashplugin, it used to be able to resolve the dependencies, now it wants to remove a lot of stuff | 06:25 |
| slangasek | hmm | 06:27 |
| slangasek | how are you invoking aptitude? interactively, or commandline? | 06:27 |
| micahg | interactive | 06:28 |
| slangasek | well, I certainly get a lot of error output whenever I try to change the state of a package | 06:44 |
| StevenK | slangasek: http://wedontsleep.org/~steven/libao_1.1.0-2.debdiff | 06:57 |
| slangasek | StevenK: LGTM; mark libao4 Multi-Arch: same, and send it to Debian? | 06:59 |
| StevenK | slangasek: But what about the -dev changes? | 06:59 |
| slangasek | what about them? | 06:59 |
| StevenK | I had to move where the .a files are and so on, is that a problem? | 07:00 |
| StevenK | I'm also a little concern about the plugins | 07:00 |
| slangasek | nope; already allowed for by policy, and the standard way to go about it - it does mean that it may break reverse-build-depends, though, so you shouldn't upload to oneiric without an FFe | 07:00 |
| slangasek | what worries you about the plugins? | 07:01 |
| StevenK | slangasek: That the path changed | 07:01 |
| slangasek | well, I was assuming you had tested that the library still finds its plugins ;) | 07:01 |
| StevenK | slangasek: I haven't yet, I wanted to check that you thought the diff was sensible first | 07:02 |
| slangasek | yep | 07:02 |
| StevenK | slangasek: Only libao4 gets Multi-Arch: , nothing else does? | 07:03 |
| slangasek | well, libao-common should be made Multi-Arch: foreign (and probably also Architecture: all) | 07:04 |
| slangasek | libao-dbg can probably be marked M-A: same | 07:04 |
| StevenK | Yes, it's strange that -common isn't. | 07:05 |
| slangasek | and libao-dev, it depends on whether there are architecture-dependent headers in there | 07:05 |
| StevenK | It contains a conffile and a manual page only for pitys sake | 07:05 |
| slangasek | looks like the headers are arch-neutral, so you can mark libao-dev M-A: same as well | 07:06 |
| slangasek | that will make cross-building nicer :) | 07:06 |
| slangasek | btw, as long as you're in here you might as well drop the .la files from the package | 07:07 |
| slangasek | nothing in the archive uses them, and if something did, that something would be broken by them moving directory | 07:07 |
| StevenK | Even though it installs usr/include/ao/ao.h and so on? | 07:07 |
| slangasek | yep - as long as the files are the same across all archs, they get refcounted | 07:07 |
| StevenK | Ahh, but dpkg won't complain like it usually does when two packages contains the same file | 07:08 |
| slangasek | right, multiarch handles file overlapping differently | 07:11 |
| slangasek | since /usr/share/doc/*/changelog.Debian.gz exists in every package, for example | 07:11 |
| StevenK | slangasek: Good to know :-) | 07:12 |
| StevenK | Now, how to test plugin loading ... | 07:12 |

| irgendwer4711 | hi, I have another problem with Bug #193507 | 10:48 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 193507 in linux (Ubuntu) "compile fails without BLK_DEV_INITRD" [Medium,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/193507 | 10:48 |
| irgendwer4711 | I got this error with BLK_DEV_INITRD enabled | 10:49 |
| salvatore | hello everybody | 10:52 |
| salvatore | anybody can help me | 10:52 |
| salvatore | with lamp configuration? | 10:52 |
| irgendwer4711 | no developer active here now | 10:52 |
| irgendwer4711 | I am waiting too | 10:52 |
| Hobbsee | support is in #ubuntu | 10:52 |
| salvatore | ok thank u! | 10:53 |
| irgendwer4711 | for kernel problems too? | 10:53 |
| salvatore | no | 10:53 |
| irgendwer4711 | okay | 10:53 |
| irgendwer4711 | then can you help me | 10:53 |
| salvatore | i am tryng to install | 10:53 |
| salvatore | mysql on dropbox | 10:53 |
| salvatore | but i got a problem with phpmyadmin | 10:54 |
| * Hobbsee has no idea on that kernel issue | 10:54 | |
| irgendwer4711 | damn... | 10:54 |
| salvatore | no sorry | 10:54 |
| irgendwer4711 | any kernel professional here? | 11:20 |
| penguin42 | irgendwer4711: There is a #ubuntu-kernel I think specifically for kernel issues - but always ask the question rather than asking if anyone is here! | 11:23 |
| irgendwer4711 | I asked already ;-) | 11:24 |
| irgendwer4711 | I have another problem with Bug #193507 ; this problem occures with BLK_DEV_INITRD enabled too | 11:24 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 193507 in linux (Ubuntu) "compile fails without BLK_DEV_INITRD" [Medium,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/193507 | 11:24 |
| penguin42 | hmm ancient bug | 11:25 |
| irgendwer4711 | I am using LTS ubuntu | 11:26 |
| penguin42 | irgendwer4711: Lucid or Hardy ? | 11:26 |
| irgendwer4711 | hardy | 11:26 |
| penguin42 | irgendwer4711: OK, so you're rebuilding your kernel just without BLK_DEV_INITRD and you get the same error? | 11:27 |
| irgendwer4711 | no with BLK_DEV_INITRD | 11:27 |
| penguin42 | ok, so what are you changing and what exactly is the error? | 11:28 |
| irgendwer4711 | (.init.text+0x82e): undefined reference to `early_populate_rootfs' | 11:28 |
| penguin42 | and which version source are you using exactly? | 11:29 |
| irgendwer4711 | 2.6.24.6 I think | 11:29 |
| penguin42 | can you check ? That fix in that bug went in 2.6.25-10.16 | 11:30 |
| irgendwer4711 | wich file | 11:31 |
| irgendwer4711 | dpkg says "2.6.24.29.31" | 11:31 |
| penguin42 | irgendwer4711: sounds promising | 11:32 |
| irgendwer4711 | ok | 11:32 |
| penguin42 | can you pastebin your config? | 11:32 |
| irgendwer4711 | I try a diff to last working conf | 11:33 |
| penguin42 | yeh | 11:33 |
| irgendwer4711 | hm how to print only diffrent with diff ^^ | 11:36 |
| penguin42 | diff oldfile newfile | 11:37 |
| irgendwer4711 | I mean with wide format | 11:37 |
| penguin42 | I think that's sdiff - but can't remember how to get it to just show changes | 11:38 |
| irgendwer4711 | done | 11:38 |
| irgendwer4711 | http://pastebin.com/2KYn6DR3 | 11:39 |
| irgendwer4711 | I tried to activate some energy savings options und disabled unused drivers | 11:40 |
| penguin42 | irgendwer4711: Without having a dig in the source I'd suggest putting the CONFIG_ACPI_CUSTOM_DSDT_INITRD back the way it was? | 11:41 |
| irgendwer4711 | but I dont have a dsdt patch file | 11:41 |
| * penguin42 doesn't know much about DSDT | 11:42 | |
| irgendwer4711 | there is a file in initrd that patches the acpi tables | 11:42 |
| irgendwer4711 | but not for mine acpi | 11:43 |
| irgendwer4711 | but I can enable this an try | 11:43 |
| penguin42 | irgendwer4711: Yeh looking at the Ubuntu diff the early_populate_rootfs is ifdef'd on CONFIG_ACPI_CUSTOM_DSDT_INITRD but the ifdef in init/main.c is ifdef'd on CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD | 11:47 |
| penguin42 | irgendwer4711: If you've not got the custom dsdt initrd just comment out the call in init/main.c somewhere around line 650 | 11:48 |
| irgendwer4711 | I do a new kernel make now | 11:48 |
| irgendwer4711 | a missing dsdt patch file is not a problem, just a short message in dmesg | 11:49 |
| penguin42 | irgendwer4711: But yeh it does look like it's using the wrong ifdef - I don't know the history of the older version where bug 193507 was fixed whether the ifdef changed from there | 11:49 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 193507 in linux (Ubuntu) "compile fails without BLK_DEV_INITRD" [Medium,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/193507 | 11:49 |
| irgendwer4711 | wait to end of kernel make | 11:51 |
| irgendwer4711 | okay its donw | 11:56 |
| irgendwer4711 | no error now | 11:56 |
| penguin42 | good | 11:56 |
| irgendwer4711 | thank you | 11:56 |
| irgendwer4711 | bye | 11:56 |
| penguin42 | bah, I was going to tell him to open a new bug | 11:57 |
| === abhinav_ is now known as abhinav- | ||
| natschil | Hello. To prevent all packages from modifying /etc/example, do I do "dpkg-divert /etc/example --rename /dev/null" or is there some more elegant way? | 13:00 |
| natschil | Alternatively, how can I prevent any package from writing to /etc/example | 13:21 |
| sgnb | natschil: create a dummy package with a random name containing this file? | 13:28 |
| natschil | what about dpkg-divert --divert /etc/example --rename /tmp/some_random_file_name ? | 13:29 |
| cjwatson | natschil: 'chattr +i /etc/example' would cause any attempt to write to that file to file | 14:23 |
| cjwatson | er, to fail | 14:23 |
| cjwatson | personally I would be hesitant about trying to use dpkg-divert for that because at least historically it has had odd interactions with dpkg conffiles and it doesn't do anything useful for maintainer-script-managed configuration files | 14:24 |
| cjwatson | ScottK: I may be able to help with k3b in the not too distant future, if somebody else can test the result; I'll queue it up | 14:31 |
| natschil | cjwatson: let's say im installing something that wants to change /etc/example. Will that still fail? | 15:07 |
| cjwatson | natschil: I'm not sure how to respond except by repeating what I said above | 15:10 |
| natschil | cjwatson: ok thanks. I think I will use dpkg-divert instead and hope for the best :/ | 15:11 |
| cjwatson | well, I can repeat the fact that I do not recommend that | 15:11 |
| cjwatson | chattr +i will cause *any* attempt to write to that file to fail | 15:11 |
| cjwatson | dpkg-divert will arrange for a very limited subset of writes to be redirected elsewhere, which doesn't cover all the things packages do with files in /etc, and which I suspect will have crazy problems even if it does sometimes work | 15:12 |
| cjwatson | the only advantage of dpkg-divert here is that it would arrange for the package to install successfully anyway | 15:12 |
| cjwatson | (maybe) | 15:13 |
| ScottK | cjwatson: I should be able to test it. | 15:17 |
| ScottK | Help would be much appreciated. | 15:17 |
| cjwatson | most of them aren't too hard once you get the patterns. xvidcap is stubbornly segfaulting right now ... | 15:19 |
