slangasekthe ISO language list (ISO 639-3) mentions languages "Bisaya, Brunei" (code: bsb) and "Brunei" (code: kxd) as well as a lot of different "Malay" languages00:00
slangasekthere is Malay support in Ubuntu, but I don't know if it's a dialect that's acceptable / understandable in Brunei00:00
cjwatsonhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brunei says "Bahasu Melayu" and following links says that's msa00:02
cjwatson(ISO 639-2T/3)00:02
cjwatsonoh, or ISO 639-1 "ms"00:02
cjwatsoneglibc has an ms_MY.UTF-8 locale00:03
broderthat article also claims that the variant of Malay in Brunei and most other Malay dialects aren't mutually intelligible00:03
cjwatsonhowever I gather that Malay as spoken in Malaysia vs. Brunei isn't ... what you said00:03
cjwatsonthere's no msa_* or *_BN in /usr/share/i18n/SUPPORTED so I conclude that there is very little if any support for this language right now00:04
Juayzwho is the boss of this project?00:04
cjwatsonlooking for bosses of free software projects generally indicates some degree of confusion :-)00:05
cjwatsonhttp://www.eglibc.org/ is the eglibc project00:05
brodercjwatson: would eglibc not use something like kxd_BN? (http://www.sil.org/iso639-3/documentation.asp?id=kxd)00:06
Juayzthey are responsible for translations?00:06
cjwatsonno, only for the base locale metadata00:06
cjwatsonbroder: ah, maybe - but they don't have that entry right now00:06
Juayzok if someone is doing this project for malay i want to know because many people here want to see it00:07
cjwatsonhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/Translations has a bunch of information on how translations in Ubuntu work in general00:07
cjwatsone.g. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Translations/KnowledgeBase/AddingNewLanguage00:08
slangasekJuayz: as a general rule, free software translations happen when people who speak the language and care about the software get involved and make it happen from the ground up00:08
cjwatsonif there is anyone working on this project, then they have not got very far yet, so if I were you I would treat it as if you were the first and maybe you'll link up later00:08
Juayzok cjwatson thank you mr.00:09
slangasekwe can provide pointers to help you get started (as cjwatson is doing), but that's probably about all00:09
Juayzalso slangasek00:09
Juayzhow much is to translate?00:09
Juayzhow many words?00:10
cjwatsonan absolutely ginormous amount00:10
Juayzestimate?00:10
broderit looks like oneiric had something on the order of 380000 strings00:10
Juayz380,000 lines?00:11
brodermore like phrases00:11
brodersome would be long and some would be quite short00:11
Juayzok.00:11
cjwatsonideally sentences, although not all projects will keep to that00:11
Juayzis there statistics for this?00:12
Juayzhow long it takes for how many people to make it00:12
broderthere's no requirement that *everything* be translated for a language to be included at all, though00:12
cjwatsonsomebody on #ubuntu-translators might have more idea about that kind of detailed question00:12
Juayzok thank you.00:13
cjwatsonmost developers would be aware of the basic infrastructure involved but not of the quantities00:13
Juayzthis is important for investment calculations00:15
cjwatsonI understand, but don't have the numbers you want00:15
JuayzIs there some country that uses linux in government and municipal office computers?00:17
Juayzin desktops00:17
cjwatsonJuayz: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Linux_adopters#Government has a number of examples00:26

pitti_good morning04:36
psusigood night ;)04:45
micahgpitti_: are the font renames done?  I was going to spin up a new xubuntu meta04:54
pitti_micahg: so far, yes04:54
pitti_eh? the -omap4 kernel went to -1402, and now back to -1401?04:55
dr3mroplease I need to know something .. does ubuntu sync packages with debian stable ?? when they are released ?? or just keep the unstable snapshot it had and wait for the next sync with next ubuntu release ??04:58
micahgdr3mro: we normally sync with unstable until Debian Import freeze which is 7-11 weeks into the development cycle, for the LTS, we've been syncing from testing04:59
pitti_dr3mro: we don't sync with debian stable04:59
pitti_dr3mro: we stop auto-syncing as micahg says, but we often manually sync individual packages when checking that they don't break05:00
dr3mroI mean if app X for example is in unstable repo of debian .. when it reach the stable repo .. does all fixes ported to ubuntu ?05:01
dr3mropitti_, what about fixed bugs upstream ?05:01
pitti_dr3mro: no, we don't update ubuntu stable versions with all fixes, just selected ones05:02
pitti_which are particularly urgent (data loss/security/regression), or particularly safe05:02
dr3mropitti_, does this apply even for LTS ?05:02
pitti_yes05:02
pitti_dr3mro: we _sometimes_ update stables to new upstream microreleases05:03
pitti_e. g. we often upload new KDE 4.7.x or GNOME 3.2.x releases05:03
dr3mroexcuse me but doesn't that mean ubuntu will always has bugs debian has fixed months ago ??05:03
pitti_dr3mro: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates has the details05:03
pitti_in essence, yes05:04
pitti_hundred known small and non-fatal bugs are much better than accidentally introducing just one regression05:04
dr3mropitti_, but why just use a branch of unstable and do whatever we ahve to to create ubuntu then merge back and release ?? so we benefit from upstream work ??05:05
pitti_dr3mro: if someone actually _does_ this cherrypicking, it's fine05:05
pitti_dr3mro: we just don't have a thousand developers to do this for all 30K packages for all N supported releases :)05:06
dr3mropitti_, so if i use LTS ? it has more bugs than lets say debian 6.0 ??05:06
pitti_so in practice it only happens for a small subset of packages05:06
pitti_same argument -- it needs someone to do it05:06
micahgthe same package in Debian stable might behave differently in Ubuntu due to different library versions and toolchain feature05:06
pitti_dr3mro: is this a general question, or do you have a particular package in mind?05:06
=== stalcup is now known as v
dr3mropitti_, general as I am experincing alot of crashes and lock downs since ubuntu 9.1005:07
dr3mropitti_, these never happend when i installed slackware, arch ,, i googled and find out about this unstable thing05:08
dr3mroI Like ubuntu specific things .. like unity .. global menu .. PPAs , but I have another Q? are those apps avail to other distros ?05:15
pitti_DreamThief: yes, of course; Debian packages some05:16
pitti_they have upstream releases, project pages, upstream bug trackers, VCS, etc.05:16
pitti_and are GPL05:16
pitti_cjwatson: are the things in http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/priority-mismatches.txt generally important? i. e. should this really be zero, or is this more cosmetical for the optional <-> standard things, etc.? (I know that the required/essential bits are breaking bootstrapping)06:21
pitti_jibel_: I noticed the new https://jenkins.qa.ubuntu.com/view/Precise/job/precise-problems-check/, nice! I have some ideas what else we should add there; can this be extended or is it meant to look at just one report06:22
pitti_jibel_: in particular, it would be nice if this could yell if some reports few, if anyone ever looks at have something06:23
rickspencer3hey pitti_ love to see that beer mug each morning :)07:18

pitti_ it's in shell, if you need a script in a different language I'm happy to write one07:21

smoseri would have expected ubuntu-8.04.4-dvd-amd64.iso07:31
micahgsmoser: dvds aren't necessarily respun for point releases IIRC07:32
smoserubuntu-10.04.3-dvd-amd64.iso07:32
smoserso they were for 10.04. maybe not for 8.04, but then we have the directories there, and there.07:33
smoseri'm off to bd.07:33
micahgsmoser: no mention of DVDs here: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-announce/2010-January/000128.html07:34
micahgwhereas here there is: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-announce/2011-July/000150.html07:34
smosergood enough.07:34
micahgsmoser: although neither does this, so no proof there: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-announce/2008-July/000112.html07:36
micahgsmoser: so I guess there could be something wrong :)07:39
cjwatsonpitti_: things below priority: important are relatively cosmetic07:39
pitti_cjwatson: good morning07:39
pitti_cjwatson: so e. g. py3.2 should move to "important" now, because it's in teh default install07:40
pitti_cjwatson: I'm happy to make the adjustments07:40
cjwatsonyes, lsb-release has started depending on it again07:40
pitti_cjwatson: I also proposed to include arch/prio-mismatches into the new precise-problems jenkins job, as usually few people look at it07:40
pitti_and they aren't obvious07:40
cjwatsonjenkins seems a bit heavyweight, I don't want it showing up as failures07:41
cjwatsonalso it's actually impossible to get priority-mismatches to zero right now due to some differences across architectures07:41
cjwatson(anyway, I'm on holiday, I just looked in on the red window, so if you want to fix things up be my guest)07:42
pitti_cjwatson: yep, thanks07:43

seb128pitti_, did you talk to slangasek today?09:44
pitti_seb128: no, I didn't09:44
seb128pitti_, he was wondering about language packs and srus yesterday09:44
seb128he said only part of the sets were copied and that it created issues09:45
pitti_I thought I fixed all these09:45
seb128<slangasek>ScottK, cjwatson: I'm not sure what pitti did the other day to fix the langpack problem, but I still see a lot of langpacks in oneiric-proposed that have not been copied to oneiric-updates, and they're *not* showing up as candidates on http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/pending-sru.html09:45
seb128<slangasek>seb128: right, well, the current problem is that only some packages were copied to -updates for each language, making some of them uninstallable09:46
seb128 <slangasek>can't copy language-pack-$foo-$lang without also copying language-pack-$foo-$lang-base, etc09:46
seb128 09:46
seb128pitti_, that's basically the summary09:46
seb128he maybe sorted it, dunno09:46
seb128I figured I would mention it09:46
pitti_these are two different things09:46
pitti_we only move the stuff to -updates which actually has been tested09:46
pitti_but we forgot some -base packs from the previous run09:47
seb128right, that I told him09:47
pitti_that's a bit confusing09:47
seb128pitti_, I pointed him to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Translations/LanguagePackUpdatesQA09:47
seb128pitti_, oh, he said "<slangasek>SpamapS: there was an SRU regression alert a week ago because of resulting uninstallabilities, and I've just tracked down another 3 packages that had the same problem :/"09:47
pitti_hm, we really should have a britney run for stable and stable-proposed09:48
seb128pitti_, so yeah, he probably fixed them but he was unsure what is the process for those09:48
pitti_in that case, just copying the missing -base packs as well09:48
seb128pitti_, anyway I was just mentioning it for the record09:48

cjwatsonoh, it wants to remove python-gobject-cairo13:41
cjwatsonthat's easy, we just uploaded ubiquity to fix that13:41
cjwatsonrebuild in an hour or two13:41
cjwatsonhm, wait13:42
pittithat was yesterday already13:42
cjwatsonI think perhaps something else with a python-gobject-cairo dep needs to be fixed13:42
cjwatsonsoftware-center maybe?13:42
pittiyes, that's in bzr, but not uploaded yet13:42
cjwatsonthat's what NBS says.  fix that and it should go away13:42

pittimvo: the changes in http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~software-store-developers/software-center/trunk/view/head:/debian/changelog look both safe and exactly what we need13:44
mvopitti: right, let me quickly look at a outstanding branch, ok? should also be safe and good and then I do the upload?13:44
* pitti hugs mvo, danke13:44
mvoyw - I was slacking a bit with the recent merge requests, so I want to at least pick the easy ones into this upload13:45
dokodoes somebody want to merge isdnutils?14:06
pittidoko: hm, debian's version is even older than our's..14:09
dokopitti, right, but never merged14:09
jibelpitti, I can't install alternate, same update-openoffice-dicts error than this morning but on hyphen-en-us14:10
pittijibel: argh, that too? looking14:11
pittijibel: weird that the auto tests seemed ok?14:11
pittijibel: confirmed; I'll check these packages, too, thanks for pointing out14:12
jibelpitti, indeed, I'll compare what's different from a manual install14:12
pittijibel: oh, that's presumably one of the packages which is installed from the network through the check-language-support stuff14:13
pittijibel: i. e. it's not in the live system14:13
pittijibel: the tests might do a networkless install?14:14
dokobarry, could you have a look at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cython/0.15.1-1/+build/296123114:14
dokoI assume it's the same for other archs14:14
barrydoko: sure, looking...14:15
jibelpitti, the tests are running with full network support. Do you know what pulls hyphen-* during install ?14:15
pittijibel: if select English, it should be part of the extra language support for English14:16
jibelpitti, ok, I'll diff both installs and will see14:16
pittijibel: I'm about to upload the fix, is that ok? or do you want to keep the current situation for examining this?14:16
jibelpitti, that's fine I saved the logs14:17
pittiuploaded14:18
pittijibel: doing an archive grep now for finding similar issues14:18
pittijibel: I added teh remaining affected packages to bug 901572, will go through them14:30

pittijibel: but none of them are on the images or should be covered by the tests, so fixing them shouldn't block the next image test run14:30
dokopitti, Sweetshark: these SA dictionaries really should be updated14:50
pittiyeah, four years might be a bit outdated14:55

slangasekpitti: right, cjwatson is already looking into a britney for SRUs; in the meantime I've copied over the missing -base packages, but I'm still left wondering what the actual process is for publishing langpack updates - is it you personally monitoring that wiki page for test results?15:23
pittislangasek: when the official testing time is over, we copy the stuff that has been marked on the wiki page15:24
slangasekpitti: but who is this "we", because this all lies outside of any SRU process I'm familiar with :)15:24
pittislangasek: but that process failed in that case, as the update _before_ the most recent one was a -base refresh15:24
pittiso I need to look more carefully when copying next time and watch out for missing -base updates15:25
pittislangasek: ubuntu-translators are doing the actual verification, I'm just pushing the buttons for moving stuff between ppa, -proposed, and -updates15:25
pittiwe have a plan which apps to test to call a language update "verified"15:26

elmochrisccoulson: ^--15:33
chrisccoulsonelmo, that wiki is ancient and from a time when we had extensions in the archive15:34
elmochrisccoulson: it's referenced from the sync blacklist15:35
elmochrisccoulson: do we now not do extensions in the archive at all?15:35
elmoI started a top this rabbit hole wondering why foxyproxy was packaged in Debian but not ubuntu15:35

ubottuLaunchpad bug 901638 in update-manager (Ubuntu Precise) "tdsodbc failed to upgrade from Oneiric to Precise" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/90163815:35
chrisccoulsonelmo, only for very special cases, decided mostly by me (ie, lightning and enigmail)15:36
chrisccoulsonand any extensions maintained by us15:37
chrisccoulsonbut that's it15:37
elmochrisccoulson: ok - it'd be lovely if we could update sync-blacklist to say that15:38
elmo(if someone wants to point me at bzr, I can propose a merge - the file helpfully says it's under bzr, but not where the canonical repo is)15:38
elmochrisccoulson: but umm, sorry, one other thing - why?15:38
chrisccoulsonelmo, because there is a significant overhead with maintaining in-archive extensions, and we can never do a better job than addons.mozilla.org15:39
chrisccoulsoneg, AMO provides updated compatibility metadata for addons hosted there, to prevent developers having to respin addons for new versions15:40
chrisccoulsonextensions in the archive don't benefit from any of that, meaning they need manual uploads every 6 weeks15:40
elmohmm, ok15:40
chrisccoulsonin addition to that, addons are frequently updated upstream to fix stability / security issues, and the ones in the archive were always left to rot and ended up hopelessly outdated15:41
elmochrisccoulson: well, that's not a firefox specific argument and just indicates packages that aren't well maintained15:44
mvoslangasek: thanks slangasek, I will have a look (unfortunately burried in $stuff currently)15:51

sorenIf I install a package for the first time, and it contains a conffile, but that file is already on the filesystem... What happens? Does it get overwritten?16:03
barrydoko_: this is an interesting one.  package builds fine in an oneiric chroot for py2.6 and 2.7.  upstream tarball fails exactly the same way in a virtualenv w/2.7 on precise.  i'm testing upstream tarball in a virtualenv on oneiric in 2.6 and 2.7.  i wonder, could this possibly be a gcc issue?16:05
barrydoko_: source tarball in 2.6 virtualenv on oneiric passes16:07
doko_barry, you could check with gcc-4.5 instead16:08
barrydoko_: will do after my 2.7+upstream+oneiric completes.  otoh, i'm using gcc 4.6.1 on oneiric and 4.6.2 on precise.  i wouldn't *think* that would make a difference, but i guess you never know ;)16:10
jamespagedoko_, do we have a icedtea-plugin package for openjdk-7? or is that superceeded by something else?16:16

Cheeryit's simple question and I know the answer, but I'm interested to hear if you've got something to add.22:42
Cheeryif I'd like to write an opengl application for ubuntu, what could I do?22:42
Cheerymy other information sources stay quiet22:44
Cheeryso I guess there's nothing done by ubuntu for that..22:44
hallynCheery: maybe #ubuntu-desktop would have answers23:08
Cheeryhallyn: thank you. I'll check that channel23:08
hallynnp23:09
hallyn(it's not that we don't want to help, opengl is just probably not our forte :)23:09
Cheeryhallyn: there's large amount of 'you'. and ubuntu partially stands on a huge layer of other devs outside ubuntu.23:11
hallynof course.23:11
hallynthat's how i can get away with not coding opengl myself :)23:12
CheeryI don't worry about not signal on the channel.. because it seems ubuntu as a channel seem to sink into questions. ^^23:12
Cheerystill it's sort of funny I haven't seen widespread tools you use with ubuntu to develop content for it.23:15
