soreauHi guys, a new version of a package was just released. How can I file a request that there's an update for it in 11.10?19:49
soreauIt's just a game19:49
brodersoreau: you need to go through the FFE process19:50
broder!ffe19:50
ubottuFeature Freeze Exception. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FreezeExceptionProcess for the freeze exception process.19:50
soreaubroder: Well I was kinda meaning that I wanted to request the update for the typical package updates19:50
soreauor how does that work?19:50
charlie-tcasoreau: too late for Oneiric that way. It will sync in P, if it is updated in Debian.19:54
soreaucharlie-tca: ok19:54
soreauIs there an easy way to create packages for 32 and 64 bit from a source repository?20:10
brodersoreau: multiarch!20:11
brodererr wait, that might not actually be what you're asking20:11
soreau!multiarch20:11
soreaubroder: ie. I'20:11
soreauerm..20:11
brodersoreau: are you trying to create both arch: i386 and arch: amd64 packages at the same time, or are you trying to create, e.g., an amd64 package with i386 binaries in it?20:12
soreaubroder: ie. I do not have 64bit system available but I wanted to know if there's some way to still create packages for both 32 and 64 bit20:12
soreaubroder: The former20:12
broderi don't think there's any way to do a 64-bit build without having at least a 64-bit kernel (you can always get the 64-bit userspace in a chroot)20:12
broderppa builders?20:12
soreaubroder: I was thinking maybe there's some server setup for this purpose, in a snadbox type environment20:13
soreausandbox*20:13
brodersoreau: like PPAs?20:14
soreaubroder: I don't really know how ppa's work20:14
soreauI just wanted to create packages, not a ppa20:14
broderwell, ppas hold packages20:15
soreaubroder: Right, I want to build the packages, not create a package container20:17
brodersoreau: a PPA is an apt repository. it contains packages20:17
jtaylorppas also build packages for i386 and amd6420:17
broderyou can build the packages into a ppa, and then download them20:17
soreauThere's no way to do it without creating a ppa?20:17
jtaylora virtual machine might work20:18
=== JanC_ is now known as JanC
soreaujtaylor: How would a vm help?20:19
jtaylormaybe some vm's can emulate amd64 on i38620:19
jtaylorbut maybe also not, haven't owned a 32 bit machine for avery long time :/20:20
soreaumaybe?20:20
soreauwell I'm looking for answers, not guesses ;)20:20
dtchen(yes, at least vmware can.)20:22
broderonly if you have VT-x20:23
dtchenI'm pretty certain my older laptop didn't have VT-x, but I don't have it handy to confirm20:25
soreaubroder: VT-x?20:36
broderhardware virtualization20:36
soreauSo the easiest way is to just setup a ppa?20:36
broderdtchen: under binary translation, vmware uses memory segmentation to isolate the guest from accessing host memory, and x86_64 screwed up segmentation enough that they can't do it for 64-bit guests20:36
broder</virtualization_nerd>20:37
cjwatsonyour choices are (a) have a 64-bit system already (b) get access to one (for this purpose, the PPA system is a convenient way to do that) (c) virtualise one somehow (d) cross-compile (a process which in principle is possible here but it will start with building an i386->amd64 cross-toolchain and then you'll have to experiment with tools and even then it might not work)20:39
