Laibschtumbleweed: bug 807545 is another example of a bug that's been ignored for months now.  Maybe you want to look into the situation where the dev-release is fixed/invalid, but some SRU needs to happen?00:14

siretartcjwatson: yeah, this time, I took some extra time for the merge, in total two evenings. My goal was to minimize the diff as well as possible and clarify the current situation as good as possible05:58
siretartcjwatson: and you are totally right, the previous merge changelog was done rather in a hurry, and nothing really has changed wrt system/internal library copies05:58
siretartcjwatson: btw, do you see any realistic chance that we can demote xine-lib to universe?05:59

siretartwow. the kubuntu-devel mailing list automatically rejects postings for non subscribers.09:05
lifelesssiretart: is it on l.l.n or l.u.c or elsewhere ?09:10

\shsyncpackage  --force -d wheezy -r precise  pinot -> fails09:11
siretartlifeless: lists.ubuntu.com.09:11
bdrung\sh: use the proposed version or the daily build of u-d-t09:12
siretartlifeless: already mailed -owner, but I'd be surprised if they'd care. the automatic message I've received was quite unfriendly, TBH.09:12
\shbdrung, any reason why the others were working but only pinot is failing?09:13
bdrung\sh: because the changelog is not yet available on debian09:13
debfxand yet launchpad manages to spam kubuntu-devel with merge requests every now and then09:13
\shbdrung, and a newer release of syncpackage fixes this?09:14
bdrung\sh: yes09:16
\shbdrung, got it...so it doesn't fail anymore when the changelog is missing09:16

debfxsiretart: I think that reject policy should definitely change but I'm not sure who could moderate the list09:24
siretartdebfx: thanks for your response. I hope that this is enough to demote xine-lib10:08
siretartdebfx: feel free to ping me when it got demoted, we can then investigate how to reduce the delta to debian further10:08

loolslangasek: I've debdiffed udev_173-0ubuntu4.dsc and udev_173-0ubuntu5.dsc and don't see the disappearance of test/ that you mention, so I suspect an earlier upload caused this?  there seems to be a small test/ directory too13:07
Riddellsiretart: rejecting postings from non subscribers is the only sustainable way to run a mailing list, I'm afraid if I had to manually review it each day I'd soon forget13:11
siretartRiddell: relocating your spam issues to contributors isn't very welcoming nor friendly either.13:16

siretartRiddell: Then I disagree with your understanding of 'having a working mailing list': Dropping mail of legitimate users is unfriendly at best.13:22

cjwatsoncan't remember, sorry16:40
cjwatsonask for 'dpkg -S update-initramfs', that might show it16:40
sconklincjwatson: thanks16:40
sconklininitramfs installs it, but I think something else must have set it as a symlink16:41
sconkliner initramfs-tools I meant16:42
cjwatsonsure, I meant ask the user16:42
cjwatsonmaybe 'dpkg-divert --list | grep update-initramfs'16:43
sconklingood point, duh.16:43
cjwatson(that's probably more useful/reliable than dpkg -S, but perhaps ask for both)16:43

pasqooHi, I'm setting up pbuilder and the guide tells me to run "pbuilder-dist <release> create"16:53
pasqooshould I put precise instead of <release>? Or natty?16:53
tumbleweedpasqoo: we develop against the devolpment release, precise16:54
geseryes, release is a placeholder for the release you want a pbuilder for16:54
pasqooI'm followin this: http://developer.ubuntu.com/packaging/html/getting-set-up.html16:55
pasqooSo probably I should put precise. Thanks tumbleweed geser16:55

nawkWhat is the Ubuntu archive maintenance software?23:02
sorennawk: Launchpad23:33
nawkhi soren!23:39
nawkSo I am reading about how ubuntu manages packages; I want to get something straight.  Does the Ubuntu archive maintenance software, Launchpad, maintain only those softwares in those handful of repos (multiverse, universe, canonical etc); meaning PPAs owned by other ppl are separate from it?23:45
jelmernawk: Launchpad does more than just maintain the Ubuntu archive; it provides PPA as well.23:47
jelmeras well as features like bugtracking, specifications, translations, etc.23:47
nawkhi jelmer23:48
nawkhttp://people.canonical.com/~cjwatson/ubuntu-policy/policy.html/ch-controlfields.html#s-debianchangesfiles23:48
jelmernawk: sure, what's with that link?23:49
nawkSo suppose I register my own PPA for the archival of a software I wrote, foo-1.3-rc1.deb23:50
nawkFor launchpad to "process updates to packages", i'd want/need to have .changes files in there too right?23:51
jelmeryes, you generally upload a set of files  to Launchpad - usually a tarball with the upstream source, a changes files, a .dsc file and the ubuntu-specific changes (usually .diff.gz or .debian.tar.gz)23:54
