| EvilResistance | do any of you know how i can download the source for a package that is in precise | 01:23 |
|---|---|---|
| EvilResistance | i'm aware that dget might work, but i'm unsure the link to use | 01:24 |
| ajmitch | 'apt-get source packagename' if you have the source entries enabled | 01:24 |
| EvilResistance | ajmitch: its in precise. i'm on natty | 01:24 |
| ajmitch | it might be more useful to use pull-lp-source if you're not on precise | 01:24 |
| EvilResistance | the plan is to repackage | 01:24 |
| EvilResistance | ajmitch: would dget <path-to-lp-.dsc-file> work? | 01:25 |
| ajmitch | it would, afaik that's pretty much what pull-lp-source does without you having to find the .dsc file | 01:25 |
| broder | pull-lp-source is a bit more intelligent because it'll try to use a mirror for everything but the .dsc file to avoid hammering lp quite so much | 01:26 |
| EvilResistance | broder: considering its only 3 files, *shrugs* | 01:28 |
| broder | there are also mirrors closer to you than lp | 01:28 |
| EvilResistance | i've got the source, but i have a feeling the "natty" build for the source will explodify once it hits the PPA | 01:28 |
| EvilResistance | :P | 01:28 |
| EvilResistance | broder: maybe so, but i'm on an excessively fast hard line | 01:28 |
| broder | but it sounds like you should also take a look at backportpackage | 01:28 |
| EvilResistance | broder: there's a backportpackage command? | 01:29 |
| EvilResistance | o.O | 01:29 |
| broder | EvilResistance: my experience is that lp is the limiting factor for downloads from lp, not your connection | 01:29 |
| broder | EvilResistance: it's only intended for simple, no-change backports, but it sounds like that's what you're trying to do | 01:29 |
| EvilResistance | broder: indeed. how would I go about obtaining this program? | 01:29 |
| EvilResistance | remember, i'm on Natty, not on Precise | 01:30 |
| broder | EvilResistance: it was added to ubuntu-dev-tools during the natty development cycle | 01:30 |
| EvilResistance | huh | 01:30 |
| EvilResistance | whats the command syntax? | 01:30 |
| broder | try the manpage? i'm happy to explain if it's not clear, but i tried to make it clear and would prefer to know if it's not | 01:31 |
| EvilResistance | hm | 01:32 |
| EvilResistance | the manpage is clear | 01:32 |
| EvilResistance | but you should consider having the actual program's on-fail help message include the synopsis a bit | 01:33 |
| broder | it does have a --help | 01:33 |
| EvilResistance | indeed | 01:35 |
| * EvilResistance begins using | 01:35 | |
| EvilResistance | i assume, though... | 01:35 |
| EvilResistance | it requires a PPA in order to upload the backport to? | 01:35 |
| broder | it can also do local builds | 01:35 |
| EvilResistance | thereby allowing LP to build the backported package? | 01:35 |
| EvilResistance | ah | 01:35 |
| EvilResistance | assume for a minute i dont want to build it at this system | 01:35 |
| EvilResistance | :P | 01:35 |
| broder | then yeah, you'd want to upload to a PPA | 01:35 |
| EvilResistance | syntax then for that option = --upload=<launchpad PPA target> ? | 01:36 |
| broder | yeah. using the standard syntax, which is "ppa:your-lp-username/your-ppa-name" | 01:36 |
| broder | just like you'd pass to dput | 01:36 |
| EvilResistance | cept dput has it all in the configs xD | 01:36 |
| EvilResistance | ok | 01:36 |
| broder | actually, iirc, backportpackage just shells out to dput, so whatever it would take as an upload target, backportpackage can also take | 01:37 |
| EvilResistance | woah explosion! | 01:38 |
| EvilResistance | ohhhhhh | 01:39 |
| * EvilResistance ran into this issue BEFORE | 01:39 | |
| * EvilResistance slaps his computer | 01:39 | |
| EvilResistance | broder: any way for me to pass to the program what PGP key it should use to sign?L | 01:40 |
| broder | EvilResistance: bah, yeah, i ran into this the other day. you can put it in ~/.devscripts, which debuild looks at | 01:40 |
| EvilResistance | right now its trying user@systemhostmask | 01:40 |
| EvilResistance | broder: syntax? | 01:40 |
| broder | echo DEBUILD_DPKG_BUILDPACKAGE_OPTS="-k1A2B3C4D" >> ~/.devscripts | 01:40 |
| EvilResistance | if i have a key that has other uids on it, can i specify one of the non-first uids? | 01:42 |
| EvilResistance | or do i just get to use the primary uid of said key? | 01:42 |
| EvilResistance | actually nevermind | 01:43 |
| EvilResistance | 'tis irrelevant :P | 01:43 |
| broder | sorry, my gpg-fu is pretty limited | 01:44 |
| EvilResistance | :P | 01:44 |
| broder | i know you can pass things like -kevan@ebroder.net though | 01:44 |
| broder | so i would assume subkeys are fine | 01:44 |
| EvilResistance | how can i pass that to the system? | 01:44 |
| * EvilResistance must know! | 01:44 | |
| EvilResistance | :P | 01:44 |
| EvilResistance | well... its kinda irrelevant, but meh | 01:44 |
| EvilResistance | :P | 01:44 |
| broder | huh? i mean you can set the -k argument in ~/.devscripts to be an e-mail address | 01:44 |
| EvilResistance | oh really? | 01:45 |
| EvilResistance | didnt know that :P | 01:45 |
| broder | the way this works is that debuild looks at DEBUILD_DPKG_BUILDPACKAGE_OPTS in ~/.devscripts, and always prepends those arguments to what you pass on the cmd line | 01:46 |
| broder | since backportpackage uses debuild, you can take advantage of this | 01:46 |
| EvilResistance | indeed | 01:46 |
| EvilResistance | what i really like about this | 01:46 |
| EvilResistance | is it throws in the ~dist part | 01:46 |
| EvilResistance | so i can backport to numerous versions :) | 01:46 |
| EvilResistance | *ASSUMING* it builds correctly | 01:46 |
| broder | that's the idea - it's modeled after how ubuntu's backports work (http://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports, not that those docs are great) | 01:47 |
| * EvilResistance threw it up to a ppa:lpid/backports ppa | 01:47 | |
| EvilResistance | where lpid is my id ;P | 01:47 |
| EvilResistance | i forget...\ | 01:50 |
| EvilResistance | the dput ACCEPT or REJECT messages.... | 01:50 |
| EvilResistance | are they emailed to the primary email for the LP account? | 01:50 |
| broder | yes, assuming that lp was able to verify your signature and cross-reference that to a user account | 01:50 |
| EvilResistance | any idea on the estimated duration of that? | 01:51 |
| EvilResistance | i.e. how long it takes for it to shoot off the email | 01:51 |
| EvilResistance | or confirm the receipt of the dput? | 01:51 |
| broder | usually <5 minutes | 01:51 |
| EvilResistance | cool | 01:52 |
| EvilResistance | hmm | 01:52 |
| EvilResistance | out of curiosity... | 01:52 |
| EvilResistance | if the original source has the architecture listed for multiple architectures... | 01:52 |
| EvilResistance | will the builders *build* for all architectures? | 01:52 |
| broder | PPAs only build for i386 and amd64 | 01:53 |
| EvilResistance | ahh | 01:53 |
| EvilResistance | i see | 01:53 |
| EvilResistance | even so | 01:53 |
| broder | there aren't any ARM PPA builders | 01:53 |
| EvilResistance | i meant will they concurrently build | 01:53 |
| EvilResistance | i.e. both amd64 and i386 are listed | 01:53 |
| broder | you get one builder for each arch | 01:53 |
| EvilResistance | but only amd64 is building now | 01:53 |
| EvilResistance | it has i386 as "NeedsBuilding" | 01:53 |
| EvilResistance | ahh. "Start in 4 minutes" | 01:54 |
| broder | an i386 builder can't build amd64 binaries, and vice versa | 01:54 |
| EvilResistance | ... | 01:54 |
| broder | there are separate pools of builders for each arch, and builds queue up separately | 01:54 |
| EvilResistance | lets assume for a minute i've **built** numerous packages for the system | 01:54 |
| EvilResistance | :P | 01:54 |
| EvilResistance | typically my packages are architecture-independent | 01:54 |
| EvilResistance | (i.e. 'all') | 01:55 |
| EvilResistance | THIS is architecture dependent | 01:55 |
| * EvilResistance sees why amd64 is building now and i386 is not | 01:55 | |
| broder | right, arch: all packages are special | 01:55 |
| EvilResistance | wth... | 01:55 |
| EvilResistance | "Dependency Wait..." | 01:55 |
| broder | that means your package build-depends on something that's not available | 01:56 |
| broder | probably a versioned dependency that was bumped after natty was released | 01:56 |
| EvilResistance | wtf's "swig2.0" | 01:56 |
| * EvilResistance checks | 01:56 | |
| EvilResistance | wth... | 01:57 |
| EvilResistance | it only exists in *oneiric*? | 01:57 |
| EvilResistance | "Generate scripting interfaces to C/C++ code" | 01:57 |
| * EvilResistance has the oh wait | 01:57 | |
| * EvilResistance notices it was searching only in oneiric | 01:57 | |
| EvilResistance | ah | 01:58 |
| EvilResistance | i see | 01:58 |
| EvilResistance | it does exist in natty | 01:58 |
| EvilResistance | in universe | 01:58 |
| broder | you're backporting a package from main? | 01:58 |
| EvilResistance | wth | 01:58 |
| EvilResistance | broder: is ZNC in main? | 01:58 |
| broder | nope | 01:59 |
| EvilResistance | then you have your answer | 01:59 |
| broder | did you look at the version of swig2.0 it build-deps on? | 01:59 |
| EvilResistance | i'd ask how to check that | 02:00 |
| EvilResistance | but i didnt download the source ;P | 02:00 |
| EvilResistance | the system did and didnt really store it anywhere | 02:00 |
| EvilResistance | note i was backporting to Maverick first | 02:00 |
| EvilResistance | and Maverick doesnt have swig2.0 | 02:01 |
| * EvilResistance will try natty next | 02:01 | |
| EvilResistance | i need it in at least natty ;P | 02:01 |
| EvilResistance | as for my Debian servers, i'm assumign they're all screwed :P | 02:01 |
| EvilResistance | unless PPAs allow for Debian builds to be done | 02:02 |
| EvilResistance | but iirc, there isnt a sid chroot anywhere :P | 02:02 |
| broder | no, PPAs are for Ubuntu only | 02:02 |
| EvilResistance | as i suspected | 02:02 |
| EvilResistance | :P | 02:02 |
| EvilResistance | ... i'm about ready to explode ubuntu | 02:17 |
| EvilResistance | configure: error: SWIG version >= 2.0.4 is required. You have 1.3.40. You should look at http://www.swig.org | 02:17 |
| EvilResistance | and that's natty | 02:18 |
| EvilResistance | wait... what the fsck? | 02:18 |
| EvilResistance | 2.0.1-2: amd64 i386 <--- that's whats in natty | 02:18 |
| EvilResistance | WHY IS IT TRIGGERING AN ERROR?!?!? | 02:19 |
| EvilResistance | for swig | 02:19 |
| EvilResistance | oh wait | 02:19 |
| ajmitch | because it needs 2.0.4, but has a lower version, and is complaining about some other strange version number? | 02:19 |
| EvilResistance | it wouldnt work anyways | 02:19 |
| EvilResistance | *grumbles about how fscking annoying ubuntu is being* | 02:20 |
| * ajmitch fails to see why this is ubuntu's fault to grumble about | 02:21 | |
| EvilResistance | i assume i'm free to attempt to backport any package that exists? | 02:25 |
| EvilResistance | assuming i can get to the dsc | 02:25 |
| micahg | EvilResistance: you want swig2.0 in oneiric | 02:28 |
| EvilResistance | micahg: i want swig2.0 >= 2.0.4 backported into natty is what i want | 02:28 |
| EvilResistance | i'm not going to be upgrading my VPSes into Oneiric given all the stability issues i'm seeing people whine about | 02:29 |
| micahg | yeah, so both oneiric and natty have that version | 02:29 |
| micahg | oops | 02:29 |
| micahg | I meant oneiric and precise :) | 02:29 |
| EvilResistance | my patience with ubuntu has dwindled now. | 02:30 |
| EvilResistance | and when i try to backport swig2.0 it fails too | 02:30 |
| EvilResistance | dh_autoreconf_clean | 02:31 |
| EvilResistance | make: dh_autoreconf_clean: Command not found | 02:31 |
| EvilResistance | because of that | 02:31 |
| micahg | run 'sudo mk-build-deps -i -r' in the build directory | 02:31 |
| EvilResistance | what build directory? | 02:31 |
| EvilResistance | i'm using backportpackage | 02:31 |
| EvilResistance | its not storing ithe stuff anywhere afaict | 02:31 |
| micahg | right, you still need some build deps installed, you can either find out which one (apt-file search dh_autoreconf_clean) or use the other command I gave you to install them all | 02:32 |
| micahg | dh-autoreconf will take care of that issue | 02:33 |
| * EvilResistance hopes that swig2.0 2.0.4-3ubuntu1 will correctly build in natty | 02:35 | |
| EvilResistance | micahg: that was what i needed, thanks | 02:35 |
| EvilResistance | micahg: assumign swig2.0 correctly builds on the natty systems... | 02:39 |
| EvilResistance | micahg: is there a way i can tell the builders to use the PPA that i'm building znc .202 on to use swig2.0 from that same PPA? | 02:40 |
| EvilResistance | assuming of course it builds | 02:40 |
| micahg | EvilResistance: will happen automatically once its built | 02:40 |
| micahg | and published | 02:40 |
| EvilResistance | i see | 02:40 |
| EvilResistance | so the builders will automagically check the ppa to see if it contains newer versions of build-deps? | 02:41 |
| EvilResistance | if not, resort to standard ubuntu archives? | 02:41 |
| micahg | right | 02:41 |
| micahg | well, sort of | 02:42 |
| * EvilResistance needs a definite "This will work" solution >.> | 02:43 | |
| micahg | well, you've got the right idea, it'll work, that's just not exactly how :), I think the PPA is like another apt source on the buildds | 02:44 |
| EvilResistance | i see. | 02:46 |
| EvilResistance | oh another question. | 02:46 |
| EvilResistance | will backportpackage identify correctly whether or not there is already a backport attempt? | 02:47 |
| EvilResistance | i.e. the verison number i have here is ~natty1~ppa1 | 02:47 |
| EvilResistance | or do i need to add additional options to have it recognize it should be natty2 or something | 02:47 |
| micahg | yeah, I think there's an option to specify the suffix | 02:48 |
| EvilResistance | now i just need to hope that the thing wont implode on build | 02:49 |
| EvilResistance | afaict, its building swig2.0 backported oneiric -> natty without incident | 02:49 |
| micahg | you can use the defaults on the first upload | 02:49 |
| EvilResistance | i havent gotten a build fail alert | 02:49 |
| EvilResistance | whooo it backported :P | 02:50 |
| EvilResistance | now its being published :P | 02:50 |
| EvilResistance | micahg: know offhand the command i have to use to provide the correct next-version suffix? | 02:51 |
| EvilResistance | the manpages are kinda buried under tabs right now | 02:51 |
| micahg | EvilResistance: pass -h for a list (-S is what you want in this case) | 02:53 |
| EvilResistance | micahg: i got a confirmation from wgrant that the launchpad builders will, if the build-dep exists in the PPA the package is being built for, it will detect it | 02:58 |
| EvilResistance | we will now know if that is true or not :P | 02:58 |
| EvilResistance | ... after ~ppa2 is detected ;P | 02:59 |
| EvilResistance | s/it will// | 03:00 |
| wgrant | It is true :) | 03:00 |
| wgrant | Has been for 4.5 years :) | 03:00 |
| wgrant | They'd be pretty useless if it wasn't true. | 03:00 |
| EvilResistance | wgrant: you NEVER KNOW :P | 03:01 |
| EvilResistance | i've seen some pretty screwy systems ;P | 03:01 |
| EvilResistance | s/systems/errors/ | 03:01 |
| EvilResistance | with launchpad | 03:01 |
| micahg | EvilResistance: oh, I know it's true, I didn't say otherwise, I was strictly speaking about the mechanics :) | 03:01 |
| EvilResistance | micahg: :P | 03:01 |
| wgrant | Launchpad is one of those, but it's not *that* screwy. | 03:01 |
| * EvilResistance is running at somehting similar to defcon 2, so... PP | 03:01 | |
| EvilResistance | confirming my thoughts isnt a bad thing | 03:01 |
| EvilResistance | brb | 03:01 |

| bbigras__ | If bug #887349 in papyon affect empathy and emesene since both arn't able to connect to MSN, should the bug marked as such? | 03:04 |

| EvilResistance | ~ppa2 is accepted, and build status is... | 03:04 |
| EvilResistance | bbigras__: i think those might be separate bugs... no? | 03:05 |
| EvilResistance | i.e. | 03:05 |
| EvilResistance | papyon isnt necessarily related to those two? | 03:05 |
| EvilResistance | unless i am wrong | 03:05 |
| EvilResistance | WTH "Failed ot build" | 03:06 |
| bbigras__ | EvilResistance: Empathy uses papyon for MSN, I saw the bug in empathy's debug window. Not sure about emesene. | 03:06 |
| micahg | bbigras__: no, the issue can probably be solved in papyon, so not worth marking the other two unless fixes need to be made there or you're getting a lot of dupes | 03:06 |
| EvilResistance | The following packages have unmet dependencies: | 03:07 |
| EvilResistance | swig2.0 : Conflicts: swig but 1.3.40-3ubuntu1 is to be installed | 03:07 |
| EvilResistance | E: Broken packages | 03:07 |
| EvilResistance | micahg: wgrant: any solutions? | 03:07 |
| EvilResistance | it at least confirms there's a conflict | 03:07 |
| bbigras__ | micahg: Ok I wasn't sure if the two projects needed to be aware of the bug or not. Yes the bug is in papyon. Thanks. | 03:08 |
| EvilResistance | micahg: wgrant: if either of you need the buildlogs, let me know i can get you the links. | 03:08 |
| wgrant | EvilResistance: You apparently build-depend on both swig and swig2.0, which is not allowed. | 03:10 |
| EvilResistance | ... | 03:10 |
| EvilResistance | wgrant: that's strange... | 03:10 |
| wgrant | It may be strange, but it's also true. | 03:10 |
| EvilResistance | wgrant: considering the package that needs the build-dep is a backport of a precise package, would i also need to backport swig from precise -> natty? | 03:11 |
| EvilResistance | er | 03:11 |
| EvilResistance | oneiric -> natty | 03:11 |
| EvilResistance | or is the znc build-deps strange? | 03:11 |
| wgrant | You're probably in the best position to answer that. | 03:11 |
| EvilResistance | can someone help me debug this from debuild -S? http://pastebin.com/YmFTFZNJ | 03:30 |
| wgrant | EvilResistance: You should use dch to edit changelogs. | 03:32 |
| wgrant | Your date formatting is incorrect. | 03:32 |
| EvilResistance | wgrant: how can i just add to the changelog? | 03:33 |
| EvilResistance | dch modifies the last changelog entry | 03:34 |
| wgrant | dch -i | 03:34 |
| EvilResistance | wgrant: thanks. i wasnt aware that existed :P | 03:55 |

| EvilResistance | micahg: i also owe you a beer. | 04:04 |
| EvilResistance | broder: you too. :P | 04:04 |
| * EvilResistance finally has this working after HOURS at it | 04:04 | |
| EvilResistance | is there a way for me to import/copy the swig2.0 package from oneiric into my PPA? | 04:08 |
| StevenK | 1 | 04:09 |
| micahg | EvilResistance: glad you got it working | 04:29 |
| EvilResistance | micahg: yep, took enough tries | 04:29 |
| EvilResistance | micahg: i ended up having to dget the source | 04:29 |
| EvilResistance | and then modify the control file | 04:29 |
| micahg | the fun of backports ;) | 04:29 |
| EvilResistance | well | 04:30 |
| EvilResistance | at least backports from Precise | 04:30 |
| EvilResistance | which was just stuff from sid | 04:30 |
| micahg | EvilResistance: backportpackage is the closest thing to source copy from archive to PPA ATM AFAIK | 04:31 |
| EvilResistance | yeah i basically just did that ;P | 04:31 |
| EvilResistance | -d oneiric -s oneiric :P | 04:31 |
| micahg | EvilResistance: why would you do that though? | 04:32 |
| EvilResistance | although i should have set the prefix to null | 04:32 |
| EvilResistance | micahg: because i'm weird :p | 04:32 |
| micahg | if you use backport package in that context, I think it'll just use the archive version for builds | 04:32 |
| EvilResistance | it might | 04:33 |
| * EvilResistance shrugs | 04:33 | |
| * EvilResistance was curious if it'd work | 04:33 | |
| micahg | backportpackage makes the version lower so that upgrades work properly | 04:33 |
| EvilResistance | the only thing i've got left to contend with is compiling znc .202 for oneiric | 04:33 |
| EvilResistance | since its still theoretically a backport ;P | 04:34 |
| EvilResistance | oh god damn it | 04:40 |
| * EvilResistance somehow uploaded the oneiric package into natty within the PPA | 04:40 | |
| * EvilResistance is now annoyed | 04:40 | |
| achiang | what's the name of the tool that can re-wrap the Depends? | 05:10 |
| achiang | ah, wrap-and-sort | 05:11 |
| EvilResistance | is it feasible to backport a backported package to an even earlier version? | 06:12 |
| EvilResistance | i.e. i backported swig2.0 from oneiric to natty and maverick. | 06:13 |
| micahg | run backport package on it? | 06:13 |
| EvilResistance | but on the backported version | 06:13 |
| micahg | yeah | 06:13 |
| micahg | or on the original if it's a no change backport | 06:13 |
| EvilResistance | true | 06:14 |
| EvilResistance | since the backported package IS swig2.0 which successfully backported (one at a time) to maverick | 06:14 |
| EvilResistance | since its the build dep for znc .202 | 06:14 |
| EvilResistance | if it backports correctly it *might* get the newest ZNC working all the way back to the last LTS :P | 06:15 |
| EvilResistance | in which case i will be happy | 06:15 |
| EvilResistance | and so will the ZNC people :P | 06:16 |
| EvilResistance | since they kept saying that Ubuntu needs to update more often | 06:16 |

| hyperair | but it tried to do a hash lookup on something.. | 06:20 |
| hyperair | oh only on lucid? | 06:20 |
| EvilResistance | hyperair: it built correctly on maverick and later | 06:20 |
| hyperair | maybe it's supposed to run on python3.. | 06:20 |
| hyperair | er | 06:20 |
| * hyperair shrugs | 06:20 | |
| hyperair | there's probably a bug in the buildd in lucid or something | 06:20 |
| hyperair | a bug in dh_python3 perhaps | 06:20 |
| EvilResistance | hyperair: https://launchpad.net/~trekcaptainusa-tw/+archive/backports/+packages | 06:20 |
| EvilResistance | for reference | 06:20 |
| EvilResistance | there's packages for maverick and natty | 06:20 |
| * hyperair shrugs. sorry, i can't really spend much time on this | 06:21 | |
| EvilResistance | ... and a znc package for oneiric | 06:21 |
| hyperair | i'm supposed to be studying | 06:21 |
| EvilResistance | i'll go stab the #launchpad peoples | 06:21 |
| hyperair | heh | 06:21 |
| hyperair | have fun | 06:21 |
| EvilResistance | perhaps they can fix the builders | 06:21 |
| EvilResistance | except i'll stab them tomorrow | 06:21 |
| micahg | #ubuntu-packaging for PPA build failures not related to launchpad itself | 06:21 |
| EvilResistance | because i'm fscking tired | 06:21 |
| EvilResistance | micahg: could it not be a build problem in the builders? | 06:21 |
| micahg | not likely | 06:21 |
| hyperair | more likely a bug in python3 | 06:22 |
| hyperair | maybe #debian-python can help | 06:22 |
| hyperair | on irc.oftc.net | 06:22 |
| EvilResistance | i'll start with #ubuntu-packaging | 06:22 |
| EvilResistance | fwiw i dont want to deal with debian people now | 06:22 |
| hyperair | heh | 06:23 |
| * hyperair is a debian person though. =p | 06:23 | |
| hyperair | going to be anyways | 06:23 |

| freakabcd | hi all | 06:44 |
| freakabcd | any idea if octave 3.4.3 will be packaged officially? | 06:45 |
| freakabcd | the current version 3.2.4 is old | 06:45 |
| freakabcd | or perhaps someone can guide me on how i can make deb packages from existing "making a deb package for octave" files (if they exist) | 06:46 |
| EvilResistance | freakabcd: out of curiosity- | 06:56 |
| EvilResistance | did you look at what was in debian sid | 06:56 |
| EvilResistance | to see if the newest version is in there somewhere? | 06:56 |
| freakabcd | no. it is the same 3.2 | 06:56 |
| freakabcd | i suppose you guys are going to simply use the debian pkg | 06:57 |
| freakabcd | i mean use their setup and stuff. (with some tweaks) since it is similar enough | 06:57 |
| EvilResistance | well | 06:57 |
| EvilResistance | they usually start with whatever's in sid | 06:57 |
| freakabcd | where can i get the source(s) for the building? | 06:57 |
| EvilResistance | and then downgrade/upgrade as needed | 06:57 |
| freakabcd | i suppose we could have a package before debian gets it :) | 06:57 |
| EvilResistance | *shrugs* | 06:57 |
| EvilResistance | freakabcd: just getting the source for 3.4.3 miight not be enough | 06:58 |
| freakabcd | no | 06:58 |
| EvilResistance | because you need to create a source package | 06:58 |
| freakabcd | i meant the sources for the extras | 06:58 |
| EvilResistance | oh | 06:58 |
| EvilResistance | that | 06:58 |
| EvilResistance | um... | 06:58 |
| EvilResistance | not sure | 06:58 |
| EvilResistance | you could try searching for the sources in the apt archives | 06:59 |
| EvilResistance | i think lp has a list of all ubuntu packages :/ | 06:59 |
| freakabcd | i know how to build octave 3.4.3 and infact i have it already built. just thought i could make a pkg if its easy enough to tweak the setup for 3.2 pkg | 06:59 |

| tumbleweed | what's the question+ | 14:25 |
| tumbleweed | ? | 14:25 |
| scott-work | tumbleweed: i get keep a notification that it fails to build and this is causing other packages in the ubuntu studio package set to fail to build | 14:26 |
| scott-work | i seem to remember that someone mentioned something funny about that package as well | 14:26 |
| scott-work | unfortunately i cannot remember the specifics about that converstaion | 14:26 |

| scott-work | errr. conversation | 14:26 |
| scott-work | tumbleweed: correction, ia32-libs fails to produce installabile binaries | 14:27 |

| === l3on_ is now known as l3on | ||
| broder | l3on: don't have a lot of time to stick around at the moment, but from a quick glance it looks like the library is getting installed into /usr/local instead of /usr | 16:17 |
| l3on | broder, I know.. and dh_usrlocal is going to fix it... but I've some problems with him | 16:18 |
| l3on | my rules: | 16:19 |
| l3on | http://paste.ubuntu.com/732136/ | 16:19 |
| broder | l3on: no, dh_usrlocal doesn't fix up things that install in /usr/local | 16:19 |
| l3on | ah :/ | 16:19 |
| broder | you should read its manpage | 16:19 |
| l3on | I read it.. | 16:19 |
| l3on | It finds subdirectories of usr/local in the package build directory, and removes them, replacing them | 16:20 |
| l3on | with maintainer script snippets | 16:20 |
| broder | right. placeholder directories, not files | 16:20 |
| l3on | ah, so ... what could be a solution ? | 16:20 |
| broder | and it doesn't move them out of /usr/local | 16:20 |
| broder | i don't know. you need to figure out how to make your build system install into /usr instead of /usr/local | 16:21 |
| l3on | ok, thank you :) | 16:21 |

| EvilResistance | if i want to submit a backport for consideration, so its backported to natty and oneiric, but the package i'm backporting is from debian sid/Precise, do i have to wait until Precise is released? | 17:48 |
| EvilResistance | or can i submit the backport for consideration? | 17:50 |
| micahg | EvilResistance: no, you don't have to wait until release, but ideally it should be a stable version | 17:57 |
| EvilResistance | micahg: what if i can provide evidence of stability? | 17:59 |
| EvilResistance | you're aware of what i've been backporting | 17:59 |
| EvilResistance | its basically an upstream code release | 17:59 |
| EvilResistance | ... just backported :P | 17:59 |
| EvilResistance | with a single change to the debian/control file to remove a conflict in ubuntu | 17:59 |
| micahg | EvilResistance: no, that was just a suggesting, not necessarily a requirement | 17:59 |
| EvilResistance | indeed | 17:59 |
| EvilResistance | micahg: who/where should i start the process? | 18:00 |
| micahg | EvilResistance: requirements are build, install, run, | 18:00 |
| micahg | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports#How_to_request_new_packages | 18:00 |
| EvilResistance | wait.... | 18:01 |
| EvilResistance | i'll have to file two backport requests? | 18:01 |
| EvilResistance | one for natty one for oneiric? | 18:01 |
| EvilResistance | micahg: will anything in universe be considered for backporting? | 18:04 |
| EvilResistance | or no? | 18:04 |
| micahg | sure | 18:04 |
| micahg | EvilResistance: well, as long as it doesn't have a lot of reverse dependencies and the ones it has are tested | 18:04 |
| EvilResistance | micahg: if the only thing that needed backported alongside this package was a single build-dep, and the rest of the dependencies for building exist already in Natty, with that single exception, would i need to file a dual backport request? or can i request both of those packages backported? | 18:07 |
| EvilResistance | via separate requests | 18:08 |
| micahg | EvilResistance: I think separate requests with a cross-reference in the description would be good IMHO | 18:12 |
| EvilResistance | micahg: could i post them in the same? for example, this is what i'm writing in thusfar: http://pastebin.com/sH7pTDBx | 18:17 |
| EvilResistance | brb, low power | 18:18 |
| EvilResistance | micahg: back, only had to move 20 feet :P | 18:19 |
| EvilResistance | micahg: i'd rather not use more bw than i already have :P | 18:21 |
| * EvilResistance is on bw-limited networking at a university | 18:21 | |
| EvilResistance | so if i can get it all in one request, that'd make my life easier | 18:22 |
| micahg | sorry, I'm going to have to let one of the backporters field this, I'm very busy right now | 18:23 |
| EvilResistance | ok | 18:23 |
| * EvilResistance isnt sure who the backporters are unfortunately :P | 18:23 | |

| l3on | ah ok : | 19:01 |
| l3on | :) | 19:01 |
| l3on | can you show me ? :) | 19:01 |

| l3on | is it ok ? | 19:02 |
| Zhenech | yes | 19:02 |
| l3on | ok, trying :) | 19:02 |
| EvilResistance | can someone point me to someone on IRC who is a member of the Ubuntu backports team? | 19:02 |
| Zhenech | you can override evey dh_command | 19:02 |
| jtaylor | manpge: With recent versions of dpkg-shlibdeps, this option is generally not needed. | 19:02 |
| jtaylor | do you really need it? | 19:02 |
| l3on | jtaylor, the question is for me? | 19:05 |
| jtaylor | yes | 19:06 |
| l3on | Yep, if I don't use it then build fails | 19:06 |
| jtaylor | you are building multiple flavors of the same library? | 19:07 |
| l3on | I think it's because $(CURDIR) is not "standard" | 19:07 |
| jtaylor | whats the error message you get? | 19:07 |
| l3on | this is the problem: | 19:07 |
| l3on | <l3on> dpkg-shlibdeps: error: Cannot continue due to the error above. | 19:08 |
| l3on | <l3on> Note: libraries are not searched in other binary packages that do not have any shlibs or symbols file. | 19:08 |
| l3on | <l3on> To help dpkg-shlibdeps find private libraries, you might need to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH. | 19:08 |
| l3on | <l3on> dh_shlibdeps: dpkg-shlibdeps -Tdebian/python-dtn.substvars debian/python-dtn/usr/lib/pyshared/python2.7/_dtnapi.so returned | 19:08 |
| jtaylor | whats the "error above"? | 19:09 |
| l3on | ehm... I've no more the log | 19:09 |
| l3on | btw, now it works ! → http://debomatic.debian.net/unstable/pool/dtn_2.8.0+hg3523-1/dtn_2.8.0+hg3523-1.contents | 19:10 |
| jtaylor | pysupport is deprecated | 19:11 |
| jtaylor | public library but not lib packagename? | 19:11 |
| l3on | mmm | 19:11 |
| l3on | Do you think I need it ? | 19:12 |
| l3on | well I don't understand this: | 19:14 |
| jtaylor | probably depends on your sponsor :) | 19:14 |
| l3on | http://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/perl-policy/ch-site.html#s-site_dirs | 19:14 |
| l3on | it means I have to put my perl module in /usr/local/ ? | 19:14 |
| l3on | but debian policy forbids me to provide a packages with file in /usr/local :/ | 19:15 |
| jtaylor | local installed usually means not installed by a package | 19:15 |
| l3on | ah ok | 19:15 |
| jtaylor | nothing in usr/local should be overriden by package upgrades | 19:15 |
| roaksoax | /win/win 8 | 19:22 |
| l3on | instead of python-support I should use python-shared ? | 19:28 |
| jtaylor | dh_python2 | 19:38 |
| jtaylor | http://wiki.debian.org/Python/TransitionToDHPython2 | 19:39 |
| l3on | jtaylor, do you have a sample to show me ? | 19:42 |
| jtaylor | there is not really much to show, add --with python2 to the dh $@ line and remove XS- XB-PythonVersion from control and see what happens | 19:44 |
| l3on | ok :) | 19:44 |
| jtaylor | btw are you building in precise? in your contents there is only a 2.7 library | 19:45 |
| jtaylor | if you b-d on python-all-dev it will build for all versions | 19:45 |
| l3on | ah ok, I'll try :) | 19:49 |
| l3on | python-all-dev (>= 2.6.6-3~) is it fine ? | 19:50 |
| jtaylor | yes | 19:51 |
| jtaylor | note that dh_python2 is not available in lucid, so if you want to support that you may want to stick with pysupport | 19:52 |
| l3on | ah damn :/ | 19:53 |
| l3on | I need this package for debian stable and ubuntu natty (last LTS) | 19:53 |
| EvilResistance | um... | 19:54 |
| soren | Natty wasn't LTS. | 19:54 |
| EvilResistance | you realize the last LTS was lucid right? | 19:54 |
| jtaylor | stable has it so far I know | 19:54 |
| EvilResistance | l3on: ^ | 19:54 |
| ScottK | It does. | 19:54 |
| l3on | ehm... lucid :/ | 19:54 |
| ScottK | Someone's working on a backport. Ask barry. | 19:54 |
| jtaylor | no complaint, but "someone is working on it" since month :) | 19:55 |
| l3on | ok, I return on pysupport :) | 19:55 |
| broder | actually, someone has been nominally working on it for a year | 19:55 |
| broder | but who's counting | 19:55 |
| EvilResistance | broder: are you the one who wrote the manpage for backportpackage? | 19:56 |
| broder | EvilResistance: yes | 19:56 |
| tumbleweed | jtaylor: longer than a month. at least 6 months | 19:56 |
| EvilResistance | oh cool :P | 19:56 |
| tumbleweed | oh broder got there :) | 19:56 |
| EvilResistance | broder: you wouldnt happen to be part of the backports team would you? | 19:56 |
| broder | i am | 19:56 |
| EvilResistance | broder: could i get you to review a backport request i threw up for natty? | 19:56 |
| broder | tumbleweed: it was definitely discussed at uds-n | 19:56 |
| EvilResistance | or will you eventually see it? | 19:56 |
| broder | EvilResistance: i can look. what's the bug #? | 19:57 |

| ubottu | Launchpad bug 887707 in natty-backports "backports: `znc` 0.202 (debian sid / precise -> natty) and build-dep `swig2.0` (oneiric -> natty)" [Undecided,New] | 19:58 |
| broder | EvilResistance: can you please split that out into 2 bugs? some of our tools require that | 19:58 |
| EvilResistance | broder: yeah i can | 19:59 |
| EvilResistance | broder: sec. | 19:59 |
| EvilResistance | broder: actually, can you wait for about 5 minutes? | 19:59 |
| EvilResistance | trying to debug a do-dist-upgrade | 20:00 |
| broder | EvilResistance: that's fine. there is likely some additional work that will need to be done, so i'll put that on the bug | 20:00 |
| EvilResistance | i marked that one as invalid anyways | 20:01 |
| EvilResistance | :P | 20:01 |
| ajmitch | fwiw, swig2.0 in precise has a swig binary package that doesn't conflict with swig2.0, so there wouldn't need to be source changes to znc | 20:01 |
| broder | is it actually necessary to depend on both? or should we be fixing the package in unstable/precise? | 20:02 |
| ajmitch | I think it should be only build-depending on one, but it was added back in as an unversioned build-dependency, it's mentioned in znc's changelog | 20:03 |
| ajmitch | it appears to be for debian backports, funnily enough :) | 20:04 |
| broder | bah. that sounds a lot like a broken build system | 20:04 |
| EvilResistance | ajmitch: the conflict is with `swig` | 20:04 |
| EvilResistance | not `swig2.0` | 20:04 |
| EvilResistance | ran into this on the builders | 20:04 |
| broder | EvilResistance: right. i don't understand why swig still needs to be in the b-d list | 20:05 |
| EvilResistance | `swig` and `swig2.0` conflict | 20:05 |
| EvilResistance | broder: it was in the build-deps on sid :/ | 20:05 |
| broder | right. why? | 20:05 |
| ajmitch | the oneiric versions of swig & swig2.0 conflict | 20:05 |
| broder | ScottK: it's been a long time since i approved a non-leaf backport. what are the rules on r-build-dep testing again? | 20:05 |

| broder | including b-d? ok | 20:06 |
| ScottK | Yes. | 20:06 |
| ScottK | For something like swig that's kind of important. | 20:06 |
| broder | right, that's why i wanted to double-check | 20:06 |
| filip_ | Hi. I have a problem creating a PPA package that contains files with diacritics and spaces in filename. | 20:14 |
| broder | EvilResistance: oh, good - you're only requesting a oneiric->natty backport of swig2.0 | 20:15 |
| broder | that's actually much easier than i was afraid it would be | 20:15 |
| broder | since nothing in the archive actually used swig2.0 in natty | 20:15 |
| EvilResistance | broder: :P | 20:15 |
| l3on | jtaylor, thank you so much :) | 20:15 |
| EvilResistance | broder: yeah, its an oneiric->natty nochange backport | 20:15 |
| l3on | I learn many things today :( | 20:15 |
| l3on | :) | 20:15 |
| EvilResistance | broder: same as i had to do to get the damned buildds to build znc | 20:15 |
| broder | EvilResistance: i thought you were asking for precise->natty for swig2.0, which would have been harder because we have to backport to oneiric as well | 20:16 |
| l3on | I've to go now... see you and thanks again :) | 20:16 |
| EvilResistance | broder: swig2.0 existed in oneiric | 20:16 |
| EvilResistance | and was sufficient to build znc 0.202 in oneiric | 20:16 |
| EvilResistance | case in point: my ppa | 20:16 |
| broder | EvilResistance: got it. give me a moment to ACK the swig2.0 backport and i'll look at the znc one | 20:16 |
| EvilResistance | broder: before actually *filing* the backport requests... i did my homework :p | 20:16 |
| EvilResistance | and tested within my backports pap | 20:17 |
| broder | EvilResistance: and we backporters appreciate that! | 20:17 |
| broder | :) | 20:17 |
| EvilResistance | ppa* | 20:17 |
| EvilResistance | broder: although be aware... | 20:17 |
| EvilResistance | i'm considering filing the znc backport for precise -> oneiric as well | 20:17 |
| EvilResistance | same debian/control change | 20:17 |
| EvilResistance | otherwise it builds as swig2.0 in oneiric is sufficient for building | 20:17 |
| filip_ | Could anybody point me to any resource on how to put diacritics+spaces in the file name, please? The packaging process always fails, even when I tried to put the filenames in quotes in the debian/install file. | 20:18 |
| filip_ | (maybe I will ask in #ubuntu-packaging...) | 20:19 |
| broder | EvilResistance: we will actually require that. in order for the natty->oneiric upgrade to work correctly for users that install znc from backports, we need the package in oneiric to have a higher version number than the one in natty, so we need a backport there as well | 20:19 |
| broder | but we can evaluate that all within the one bug - i'll be there in a sec | 20:20 |
| jtaylor | filip_: spaces in filenames does not work with dh_install debian bug 198507 | 20:20 |
| ubottu | Debian bug 198507 in debhelper "dh_install: fails if filenames have an embedded space" [Normal,Open] http://bugs.debian.org/198507 | 20:20 |
| filip_ | jtaylor: thanks | 20:21 |
| jtaylor | you will hve to install them manually in rules | 20:21 |
| filip_ | jtaylor: do you think there is any better workaround than renaming them in the debian/postinstall script? | 20:22 |
| jtaylor | install them in debian/rules with standard shell tools | 20:22 |
| EvilResistance | broder: indeed, i wasnt sure the exact methodology, but according to my tests within the PPAs, the znc 0.202 (sid/precise -> oneiric) has built | 20:22 |
| EvilResistance | broder: as for testing, i dont have an oneiric server around | 20:22 |
| filip_ | jtaylor: thank you, I will try that | 20:22 |
| EvilResistance | but this should get the people from znc to stop yelling about ubuntu users having older versions | 20:22 |
| broder | EvilResistance: i'm also going to adjust the title of the bugs to what our tools expect | 20:23 |
| broder | (makes it easier for the archive admins when the handle the backport) | 20:23 |
| EvilResistance | broder: indeed. there wasnt a specified title format in the "How to request" page | 20:25 |
| broder | the docs certainly could use some love | 20:25 |
| broder | did you test all of the packages generated by znc, or just the znc package itself? | 20:26 |
| EvilResistance | broder: they all actively installed by just installing `znc` | 20:27 |
| EvilResistance | broder: they built and executed, but extremely thorough testing wasnt completed. | 20:27 |
| EvilResistance | from what i can tell | 20:27 |
| EvilResistance | the other packages provide additional modules into ZNC | 20:27 |
| broder | EvilResistance: we don't need extensive testing - our standard is "builds, installs, runs", and our standard for "run" is pretty low | 20:28 |
| EvilResistance | broder: it does execute and the modules they install load correctly | 20:28 |
| EvilResistance | broder: otherwise ZNC would freak and continually segv | 20:28 |
| broder | ok. that sounds good. we will need you to come up with some way to verify oneiric as well before we can approve the backport | 20:28 |
| broder | but everything looks good other than that | 20:28 |
| EvilResistance | broder: throw me an oneiric VPS and i'll make it run :P | 20:28 |
| EvilResistance | actually | 20:28 |
| EvilResistance | *downloads oneiric server* | 20:29 |
| EvilResistance | i have VMS! | 20:29 |
| EvilResistance | :P | 20:29 |
| EvilResistance | broder: would verifying using the PPA i have (which includes the oneiric backport for znc 0.202) work? | 20:31 |
| EvilResistance | on the oneiric VM | 20:31 |
| EvilResistance | (which is a full oneiric server install on VBox) | 20:31 |
| broder | yeah, that would be fine | 20:32 |
| EvilResistance | now if only this would download a bit faster | 20:33 |
| EvilResistance | its at 55% download of the ISO | 20:34 |
| EvilResistance | broder: how long are ya going to be here | 20:38 |
| EvilResistance | i dont wnat to inconvenience you if you have somehwere else to be | 20:38 |
| EvilResistance | *98% download completion* | 20:38 |
| broder | EvilResistance: i'm in the US, so it's the middle of my day or so. i'll be around, but am probably not going to take another look until end of my work day | 20:40 |
| EvilResistance | broder: OK. i'm currently loading up the VM now | 20:40 |
| EvilResistance | so this shouldnt take too long :P | 20:40 |
| EvilResistance | broder: should i jsut post a bug comment saying "Confirmed to run in Oneiric"? | 20:41 |
| EvilResistance | if/when i confirm it | 20:41 |
| broder | EvilResistance: yes, that's fine | 20:41 |
| EvilResistance | ok | 20:42 |
| === Elbrus_ is now known as Elbrus | ||
| ResistNow | broder: this is the Oneiric ZNC instance, 0.202 | 21:13 |
| ResistNow | broder: if you're around this is the confirmation it works | 21:14 |
| ResistNow | its within an ubuntu server 11.10 VM inside VirtualBox | 21:14 |
| ResistNow | i'm going to write down to the bug now that i confirmed it works. | 21:14 |
| broder | ResistNow: you don't need to prove it to me :) | 21:14 |
| broder | we're happy to take your word that you've done the testing, as long as we think you understand what testing we're asking for | 21:14 |
| EvilResistance | broder: i like proving it ;P | 21:15 |
| EvilResistance | just in case ;P | 21:15 |
| EvilResistance | bug updated | 21:15 |
| EvilResistance | to include the testing | 21:15 |
| broder | EvilResistance: ok. that should be sufficient. i'll look at it again when i get home from work | 21:16 |
| EvilResistance | ok | 21:16 |
| EvilResistance | also make sure that when its backported they fix the build-deps | 21:16 |
| EvilResistance | because of that small conflict | 21:16 |
| EvilResistance | (which i outlined in the bug description) | 21:16 |
| broder | yeah, understood | 21:17 |
| EvilResistance | broder: i would request this be backported all the way to lucid but the build deps for ZNC are either too old, or buggy... :P | 21:23 |
| EvilResistance | (in Lucid) | 21:23 |
| blair | Does ubuntu ever sync from debian experimental packages? i'm looking at hdf5 in particular, which is at 1.8.7 (which we need) while ubuntu has 1.8.4 | 23:30 |
| micahg | blair: yes, but that's unlikely to happen for an LTS w/out a *really* good reason | 23:31 |
| EvilResistance | broder: just checking up on ya, seeing if you're alive or if its your end-of-day yet. | 23:32 |
| EvilResistance | ;P | 23:32 |
| broder | not yet. i'm on pacific time and got in late, so probably still have about 3 hours to go | 23:32 |
| EvilResistance | ok. wasnt sure. | 23:33 |
| EvilResistance | holy god, i have two battery indicators o.o | 23:33 |
| blair | micahg, so would the appropriate thing to do is to request a bump from 1.8.4 to 1.8.7 using the existing packages? debian has changed the packages extensively? | 23:34 |
| EvilResistance | blair: you mean try and backport 1.8.7 to your system? | 23:34 |
| EvilResistance | that's not exactly *easy* | 23:34 |
| EvilResistance | because lets say you're on lucid | 23:34 |
| EvilResistance | if you were to try and backport something to lucid | 23:34 |
| blair | EvilResistance, no, i'm looking forward to the 12.04 release, i want to get us from Fedora 13 to 12.04 | 23:35 |
| EvilResistance | it has to backport and not conflict with maverick, natty, etc. | 23:35 |
| EvilResistance | blair: oic | 23:35 |
| * EvilResistance goes quiet | 23:35 | |
| blair | one of our open source projects depends upon hdf 1.8.7 while 12.04 currently has 1.8.4 | 23:35 |
| micahg | blair: there's a soname bump, so unlikely to happen w/out a good reason or Debian doing it (we already have a lot of transitions to finish) | 23:35 |
| micahg | it's ~25 packages | 23:37 |
| micahg | umm, actually seems to be quite a bit more | 23:37 |
| micahg | blair: I'd suggest talking to the Debian maintainer about getting the transition started there | 23:39 |
| micahg | we still have 3 months until feature freeze, so that should be enough time to finish if it's desired in Debian | 23:39 |
