Resistanceanyone able to answer a question from #u-packaging, preferably a MOTU who understands the intricacies of the repos and stuff?00:51
softcoderanyhere know if the megaglest package will be pulled into 12.4 (as its data package has) even though arm and powerpc archs fail to build?00:54
softcoderif not could someone here tunr off arm and power archs so it will be fixed?00:55
Resistancesoftcoder: its in the 12.04 repos00:55
Resistancei'm not sure there's reasons for them to arbitrarily remove a package...00:55
softcoderwhy isn't it showing here: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/precise/+search?text=megaglest00:55
Resistanceesp. if i386 and amd64 build00:55
ajmitchsoftcoder: it's in precise, it was only uploaded 5 hours ago. it wouldn't surprise me if the search index is updated less often than that00:58
Resistancewhat ajmitch said00:58
Resistancefwiw...00:58
Resistancei recommend just trying to find teh source packages yourself00:58
Resistancei.e.00:58
ajmitchactually, it may be in the binary NEW queue, let me check00:58
Resistancehttps://launchpad.net/ubuntu/<release>/+source/<package>00:59
Resistancereplacing <release> and <package> respectively00:59
Resistanceajmitch: the i386 and amd64 are marked as [NEW] on the source page00:59
ajmitchhttps://launchpad.net/ubuntu/precise/+queue - binary packages still have to be approved by archive admins00:59

EvilResistanceScottK:  around?02:50
ScottKSort of.02:50
EvilResistanceregarding that backport request... i dget'd znc 0.202-2, i can create a diff with the required change in debian/changelog, which i had to do because applying the debdiff of 0.202-1build1-to-0.202-2 failed because of the missing files or some other crap...02:52
EvilResistanceis there any other required debdiff thing that i need to do, or would that manually-generated diff file work?02:52
ScottKI suspect that's OK, but I'd need to see it.03:26
EvilResistancei'll give you the pastebin version for review, note that to generate the debdiff i had to add a changelog entry and debuild -S it to make the .dsc, but you can omit that when it actually gets backported... http://pastebin.com/4RLkXPR803:28
EvilResistancealso, my main system is Natty, hence the 'natty' distribution entry03:36
ScottKthat's fine, but for a backport with changes like this you do need to provide a changelog entry.03:49
ScottKtarget should be natty-backports and oneiric-backports (we need two)03:49
ScottKVersions should be 0.202-2~oneiric1 and 0.202-2~natty103:50
EvilResistancei'll create two diffs shortly03:52
EvilResistanceScottK:  should I just attach them to the bug?03:58
ScottKYes03:58
EvilResistanceshould i mark it as a patch?04:00

RhondaSomehow my maverick uploads to my PPA get lost.15:24
RhondaSuccessfully uploaded wesnoth-1.9_1.9.14-1~ppa1~maverick1_source.changes to ppa.launchpad.net for ppa-wesnoth-devel.15:26

EvilResistanceScottK:  yeah, i just did15:41
EvilResistanceScottK:  the only thing failing (which i expected) is the natty backports, but i noted that their building is blocked by a crit,triaged bug in LP15:41
EvilResistanceRhonda:  how long ago was that uploaded if I might ask?15:42
EvilResistanceit takes PPA uploads about 5 - 10 minutes before they're usually pushed into the PPA and the builders15:42
RhondaEvilResistance: Like, 4 hours?16:01
RhondaEvilResistance: https://launchpad.net/~rhonda/+archive/wesnoth-devel/+packages for the other uploads and the delay so far16:01
RhondaI didn't receive any mail, so no reject mail neither.16:02
cjwatsonRhonda: Silly question, but double-check that you signed it?16:19
softcodercan i ask for an artchive admin to approve (or examine and approve) megaglest17:05
softcoderits in the new queue and replaces glest17:05
cjwatsonhm, I thought I'd processed that.  will do17:06
cjwatsonI know I remember syncing it17:07
softcoderi checked 1 min ago and was still in the new queue17:07
cjwatsonoh, it needed an Ubuntu modification, that's why it didn't happen semi-auto17:08
cjwatsonsoftcoder: accepted17:10
softcoderyes because miniupnpc are different between debian and ubu currently17:10

* EvilResistance facepalms20:15
EvilResistancegood, i was worried because i have a package sitting in mentors.d.n waiting review/inclusion in Debian, if its included / approved sooner rather than later, i'd request it gets synced in :P20:15
EvilResistance(a *new* package)20:16
jtaylorhm no idea if really new packages still get in20:16
EvilResistancewell considering its destined for whatever the non-main repos are, i'm assuming the MOTUs know the freeze dates for non-main repo stuffs20:17
Laneythey do without any special effort until feature freeze20:17
Laneybeyond a sync request20:17
jtaylordoesn't it need to go through some review?20:17
jtayloror is that just during autosync?20:17
jtaylorand after muto sync acc is the same20:18
RhondaEvilResistance: You wrote to the mentors mailinglist too, not just upload it to mentors.d.n, right?20:18
EvilResistanceRhonda:  the #debian-mentors @ oftc told me what to do20:18
EvilResistanceso yes i did :P20:18

tumbleweedQ-FUNK1: getting it into Debian first is preferred23:49
EvilResistance^23:50
EvilResistancetumbleweed:  i've got a package that i'm repairing in the Debian mentors.d.n list, if they support it and get it into Debian, will that new package autosync into Ubuntu?23:50
EvilResistanceor do i have to request the sync myself?23:50
Q-FUNK1tumbleweed: true.  anything else?23:50
=== Q-FUNK1 is now known as Q-FUNK
tumbleweedQ-FUNK: getting a review from another MOTU before uploading is recommended.23:51
tumbleweedEvilResistance: we are past Debian Import Freeze, so it'll need to be requested23:51
Q-FUNKtumbleweed: actually, according to the upload guide, it's a must.23:51
tumbleweedQ-FUNK: I thought so too, but https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/NewPackages seems to say otherwise23:52
tumbleweedstill, that doesn't look ubuntu-specific, getting it in Debian isn't a bad idea23:52
EvilResistancetumbleweed:  anything i should be concerned about if i want to have that package imported into Ubuntu?  i.e. should I have a MOTU review it?  or is the fact it got into Debian good enough?23:53
Q-FUNKtumbleweed: we intend to get it in debian at some point, but since I'm already a motu here but not a DM or DD, it's easier to start here.23:53
tumbleweedEvilResistance: if it builds on Ubuntu, that's good enough23:53
EvilResistancetumbleweed:  that is to say, builds in Precise?23:54
EvilResistance(it really doesnt have any builddeps afaict except for python)23:54
tumbleweedEvilResistance: yes23:55
Q-FUNKtumbleweed: another thing is, the window to get this into precise is getting shorter and yet we have a series of 6 packages that need to be uploaded and built in a precise order.23:55
tumbleweedyeah, I see the urgency :)23:56
* tumbleweed would offer a review and debian sponsorship, but not for 6 packages that could be enormous :)23:57
tumbleweedanyway /me -> bed23:57
ajmitchnight tumbleweed :)23:57
tumbleweednight23:58
Q-FUNKtumbleweed: I've been making debian packages since 2003, so I would think that my review of other people's packaging would be enough. :) of course, second opinions are always welcome.23:59
