| ibeardslee | morning | 18:21 |
|---|---|---|
| ibeardslee | this might be an opportune moment to restart | 20:07 |
| ibeardslee | ain't technology great? I can update and reboot my home machine from work | 20:09 |
| ibeardslee | one of those wonders | 20:10 |
| ajmitch | morning | 20:21 |
| * ajmitch frequently accesses his home machine from work, it's rather useful | 20:21 | |
| * ojwb does to, but I work and home are the same place | 21:06 | |
| ojwb | s/I/my | 21:06 |
| ibeardslee | heh | 21:06 |
| * ajmitch should probably do something useful today | 21:16 | |
| ibeardslee | running an Lucid to Precise upgrade in a VM | 22:11 |
| ibeardslee | some software requires a python module supported only by python 2.7 | 22:12 |
| ajmitch | that's a pain | 22:14 |
| ajmitch | I know there were plans for backporting 2.7 to lucid in a PPA, at least | 22:15 |
| * ajmitch is running precise on his laptop now, seems to be working alright | 22:16 | |
| ibeardslee | oh .. maybe I should go looking for that as an alternative | 22:17 |
| ajmitch | https://launchpad.net/~fkrull/+archive/deadsnakes?field.series_filter=lucid | 22:18 |
| ajmitch | I don't think it has all the backported nice bits to make all your installed packages available for 2.7, but you can at least get the main python2.7 package | 22:19 |
| ibeardslee | also .. https://launchpad.net/~pythoneers/+archive/lts | 22:21 |
| ajmitch | yeah, just found that one | 22:21 |
| ibeardslee | but also looks a bit sparse on the modules I need | 22:22 |
| ajmitch | I'd probably use that instead, you can install the other modules you need with pip or easy_install | 22:22 |
| ajmitch | or you backport packages | 22:22 |
| ibeardslee | probably just use the pip or easy_install rather than backport packages | 22:23 |
| ajmitch | especially if you setup a virtualenv environment | 22:24 |
| ibeardslee | at this point it is a bit of 'yay' for targeting a production system using a dev version of software on a alpha OS | 22:24 |
| ajmitch | heh | 22:26 |
| ajmitch | chroot time? | 22:26 |
| ibeardslee | nah .. just heaps of VMs testing and thrashing things | 22:29 |
| ibeardslee | we are still working through making sure OpenERP will actually do the job for us | 22:30 |
| ibeardslee | 6.1 has slipped a number of times, so it's at the funny point where we are seeing if the version coming (6.1) will do the job for us, but there are bugs and on going development with that .. and now looks like may need to throw some non-standard installs (pre-release Ubuntu or PPA) into the mix | 22:32 |
| ajmitch | that sounds messy at best | 22:32 |
| ajmitch | almost time to go & meet friends for a barbeque lunch, such a shame I'm not working this week :) | 22:43 |
| ibeardslee | I got a couple of weeks off in .au after LCA | 22:49 |
| ajmitch | that's pretty good | 22:49 |
