stgraberpitti: just saw you uploaded a new calibre, cool! Now with the new wxwidgets2.8 I just uploaded, I should be able to install calibre and still be pycentral free ;)13:42
ogra_isnt calibre a Qt app ?13:44
ogra_at least it used to be13:44
stgraberogra_: oh, indeed, so that was another Edubuntu package that was depending on wxwidgets2.8. Calibre was bringing pysupport or pycentral in Edubuntu because of python-cherrypy3 which I converted a few days ago13:46

Erendebian maintainer's guide states that the package is installed temporarily under "debian/package" directory15:12
Erenis it different in ubuntu?15:12
ErenI've looked at the source of gtk+ package, and accordingly to *.install files, it's stated as "debian/install/shared/usr/share/... usr/share"15:13
tumbleweedEren: not different on ubuntu15:14
Erentumbleweed: is it specific to gtk+ then?15:15
tumbleweedEren: I don't know the gtk+ package, but I'm assuming it's using debian/install as a staging area, where most packages use debian/tmp as the staging area15:17
tumbleweedwhen you build multiple binaries from one source package, you usually build into debian/tmp, and then use dh_install to move them into the binary package directories15:17
Erentumbleweed: thanks. When building packages, how is ubuntu different than ubuntu? I'm currently learning how to package *.deb and I would like to know how ubuntu is differentiated from debian in terms of package management15:20
Erenops, how is debian different than ubuntu* :)15:21
tumbleweedEren: there aren't any differences you need to worry about, yet15:24
Erentumbleweed: when should I worry?15:25
tumbleweedwhen you run into them. But you almost certainly won't15:26
Erenokie, thanks. I'll keeping debian maintainer's guide, and debian policy as main documents then15:28
tumbleweedthe biggest difference you are likely to run into is that ubuntu won't include the upstream changelog in the deb15:29
tumbleweed(and only part of the debian/ubuntu changelog)15:29
Erentumbleweed: so, debian includes upstream chanlog in /usr/share/doc/<package>15:31
tumbleweedyes15:31
jtaylordoko: something is weird with python2.715:32
jtaylorpython2.7-dev is now 10 times larger than before15:33
tumbleweedlooks like the 3 static libraries balooned15:36
jtaylorcan't tell I'm still downloading ._.15:36
* tumbleweed was just looking at the build log15:37
jtaylora forgot debc output is in there15:38
dokothat's the lto sections15:41
jtaylorso its going to stay like this?15:43
=== Quintasan_ is now known as Quintasan
jtayloromg python3 is now 18.7mb19:17
jtaylordoko: is that static library /usr/lib/libpython3.2mu.a intentionally in python3 and not python3-dev?19:22
jtaylor3.219:22
dokojtaylor, no, will fix19:25
jtaylorthx, my poor internet connection thanks you :)19:25
trismIs it intentional that the debug version of dbus-daemon is being installed instead of the production version in both the dbus packages in oneiric and precise? (you can see the binary be installed once from build/bus then overwritten by build-debug/bus in the logs).19:49
trismMoving --exec-prefix=/ from the common_configure_flags to the non-debug build flags in override_dh_auto_configure in debian/rules seems to fix it if it is a bug. Only noticed it because it was causing weird aborts in make check for the dbus-python code. (at a part that shouldn't be enabled in the production build)19:58

=== dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk
wyuka_is there a page explaining how live installation actually works?21:38
wyuka_in detail?21:39
infinitywyuka_: What level of detail are you looking for?21:41
infinitywyuka_: "Copy the read-only FS from the livecd to the target filesystem; run d-i components in target to configure it" is the short answer.21:42
infinitywyuka_: Significantly more detail than that means documenting everything each d-i component can/does do, which I'm not sure is worth the effort.21:42
infinitywyuka_: There's also the "remove some packages we don't want" phase, and optionally "install more packages than the livecd had installed".21:43
