| verwilst | anyone here with 3 mins time MAX that wants to fix a bug that has been open for almost 2 years? | 12:11 |
|---|---|---|
| jtaylor | which bug? | 12:12 |
| verwilst | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dovecot-antispam/+bug/494162 | 12:12 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 494162 in dovecot-antispam (Ubuntu) "Incompatible filter on amd64 (lucid)" [Undecided,Confirmed] | 12:12 |
| verwilst | all it takes is a simple recompile of this tiny package to solve it | 12:12 |
| verwilst | it probably took longer to confirm this bugreport 2 years ago then to just recompile it ;) | 12:13 |
| jtaylor | the few motu members can't check up on every package, to get some attention its best to follow https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates and subscribe ubuntu-sponsors | 12:16 |
| jtaylor | or show up here and request help | 12:16 |
| jtaylor | verwilst: can you provide step by step instructions to reproduce it? | 12:19 |
| verwilst | jtaylor, fair enough | 12:27 |

| verwilst | jtaylor, awesome man, thanks :) | 13:37 |
| jtaylor | I assume maverick and natty need fixing too? | 13:46 |
| jtaylor | the testcase does not work there ._. | 13:46 |
| genjix | hey, i've packaged 2 libraries | 15:58 |
| genjix | how do i get them into universe? | 15:58 |
| broder | genjix: we try to get all of our new packages through debian. have you considered going through them? http://mentors.debian.net/intro-maintainers is probably a good place to start if you're interested in that | 16:52 |
| genjix | ok | 16:53 |
| broder | (we can still help you with that, and we can help you get your packages into ubuntu once debian has accepted them, but our processes are optimized for that) | 16:54 |
| genjix | sure. | 16:54 |
| genjix | ok my package is for a library which isn't mature yet and is using git committish numbers | 16:55 |
| genjix | should i wait until formal number releases, or is going for debian package good now? | 16:55 |
| genjix | atm they're in my ppa | 16:55 |
| broder | what sort of library is this? a c library? | 16:56 |
| genjix | c++ library | 16:56 |
| genjix | actually 2 of them | 16:56 |
| broder | ok. in that case i would personally be looking for some amount of API and ABI stability, because API/ABI breaks have to be dealt with in packaging, and i wouldn't want to start a package's lifecycle with a bunch of those | 16:58 |
| genjix | right ok. | 16:58 |
| broder | have you read http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-sharedlibs.html ? if you haven't, it would likely be a good read in terms of understanding what we expect from shared libraries at the packaging level | 17:00 |
| genjix | aha great. thanks for the link | 17:01 |
| genjix | useful | 17:01 |
| broder | genjix: hmm...i don't know that policy explicitly discusses what a soname is or when you need to change it. http://www.gnu.org/s/libtool/manual/html_node/Updating-version-info.html might help fill in the gaps. the version part of the soname comes from the "current" field | 17:10 |
| genjix | so i guess i'll just stick it in the ppa for now until there is a stable abi | 17:23 |
| stlsaint | were there previeous discussions about being able to get individual package upload rights? | 21:17 |
| Laney | you can already do that | 21:17 |
| stlsaint | Laney: is there documentation on that particular process? | 21:18 |
| broder | !ppu | 21:19 |
| broder | maybe? | 21:19 |
| broder | oh well | 21:20 |
| Laney | stlsaint: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopers#PerPackage | 21:21 |
| stlsaint | per package upload? (just googled ppu) | 21:22 |
| Laney | yes | 21:22 |
| Laney | !ppu is Per-Package Uploader. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopers#PerPackage for more information and application process. | 21:24 |
| Pici | !ppu | 21:26 |
| ubottu | ppu is Per-Package Uploader. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopers#PerPackage for more information and application process. | 21:26 |
| Laney | ta | 21:26 |
| broder | hmm...while we're messing with irc stuff, the /topic could use updating | 21:26 |
| Laney | why is it +t and who can make it not so? | 21:26 |
| * Laney gazes at Pici | 21:26 | |
| Pici | Hrm. I don't actually have access here. | 21:27 |
| Pici | I'll find someone who does... | 21:28 |
| Laney | cheers | 21:28 |
| stlsaint | Laney: so the pacakage must be sponsored by MOTU then we are able to aid in upload/management with that motu as ppu applicants | 21:30 |
| Laney | stlsaint: ppu don't need sponsoring, but before you get that you do | 21:30 |
| stlsaint | Laney: need sponsoring for the package? | 21:32 |
| Laney | right | 21:32 |
| * Laney has to go now, ttyl | 21:33 | |
| broder | safe travels, Laney | 21:35 |
| Legs | gday | 22:54 |
| genjix | hey | 22:56 |
| jcfp | anybody know who to contact or where to file bugs about the ubuntu popcon website? | 23:11 |
