gesergood evening ajmitch08:10
dholbachhey ajmitch, hi geser08:10
Davieyjdstrand: Hey, Is anyone other than you handling source NEW?11:55
jdstrandDaviey: the short answer is 'yes', but the longer answer is 'in practice, not really'. Friday is my aa day and I was off last friday. I was already a bit behind. it and mir audits are on my list of things to catch up on this week13:57
Davieyjdstrand: roaksoax just uploaded 6 packages for your delight :)14:00
Davieyjdstrand: I uploaded a package intended for universe last night.. You might question why it's of type native.. it was intentional.14:01
jdstrandDaviey: ok14:02
geserl3on: re your apt SRU question: it looks like apt got copied from lucid-security to lucid-updates, so you can pick either one but target your upload to lucid-proposed with version 0.7.25.3ubuntu9.1014:37
l3onok, thanks geser :)14:38

aboudreaultIf I have a directory libXYZ/, which contains the source files + the debian directory. Can I generate a orig.tar.gz on the fly of that libXYZ? which would remove the debian direcoty15:38
l3ongeser, If you're still around...15:39
tumbleweedaboudreault: you don't need to worry about the debian directory if you use source format 3.015:39
l3onbut have I to push branch over lp:~me/ubuntu/lucid/apt/sru-XXXX ?15:40
l3onand not lucid-updates, right ?15:40
directhexaboudreault, not necessarily in the way you mean. you don't know for sure whether there are any patches to the source or not15:40
directhexnot in the general case, anyway15:41
=== almaisan-away is now known as al-maisan
aboudreaultYes I use source format 3.0 but quilt is complaining about the missing orig15:46
tumbleweedwhy don't you have one?15:47
aboudreaultbecause everything is in git15:47
aboudreaultdirecthex, pkg-source: error: can't build with source format '3.0 (quilt)': no orig.tar file found15:48
tumbleweedso the upsstream doesn't release any tarball at all?15:48
tumbleweedthen you can generate one yourself, but why does it have to be done on the fly?15:48
aboudreaultit's a trunk-snapshot, I do not want to mess with that, I would to build it as it is15:48
tumbleweedah, daily build?15:48
aboudreaultkind of15:48
aboudreaultbut it fails to build when I call debuild -S -sd (or -sa, or -S only)15:49
tumbleweedyes, 3.0 (quilt) does require an upstream tarball15:49
aboudreaultI also see that all git repository now includes the software sources15:50
aboudreaultha15:50
tumbleweedhow often are you wanting to build packages from trunk?15:50
directhexaboudreault, i never said debsrc 3 would help15:50
tumbleweedif it's just the occasional snapshot, a rule in debian/rules for building an orig tarball would be handy15:50
aboudreaulttumbleweed, I just want to build it now.15:50
tumbleweedthen just create an orig tarball by hand?15:51
tumbleweedgit archive ../foo.orig.tar.gz would probably suffice15:52
aboudreaulttrying the git archive15:55

jtaylorduring freeze I can still upload unseeded stuff?17:46
micahgjtaylor: well, stuff that's not on any images17:47
jtaylormicahg: isn't that the meaning of seeded?17:47
micahgjtaylor: well, sort of17:47
micahgthere can be a supported seed which isn't subject to the alpha freezes17:49
micahgor even the beta freezes for that matter, only final freeze17:51
achianghello, is it ok to requestsync from debian/unstable, or should i really wait until it hits testing?18:04
achiang(for a package in universe, natch)18:05
achiangah, i guess it will be in testing soonish: Too young, only 3 of 10 days old18:06
micahgachiang: it's a new package, so unless you need it for something right now, I'd suggest waiting until it migrates18:08
micahgof course, that's also granting you have over 2 weeks until Feature Freeze :)18:09
achiangmicahg: ok, i'm just concerned that i'll miss the cutoff date, since we're past DIF, but it's unclear to me the true freeze date after which syncs are disallowed (without justification)18:09
achiangmicahg: ah, feature freeze is the date i care about?18:10
micahgachiang: Feature Freeze, Feb 1618:10
achiangmicahg: ok, thanks18:10
achiangmicahg: i'll wait until it his testing then18:10
achiangthanks18:10

oierhi, when uploading to revu I get "Directory to upload to does not exist.", any idea on what is going on?19:06
oierI am reuploading a package, so the page exists19:07
oierthe package is called indicator-bug19:12
oierI would appreciate your help19:13
geserl3on: you should push to lp:~me/ubuntu/lucid-proposed/apt/sru-XXXX (the same target distribution as the upload it for)19:35
=== Atlantic877 is now known as Atlantic777
tumbleweedmicahg: is that maybe due to the build failures?19:47
aboudreaultcan we tell pbuilder somehow to fully use all my CPUs when compiling?19:55
jtaylorthat must be told to the package not pbuilder19:56
jtaylorhow depends on the package19:56
jtaylor+ setting DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS19:56
aboudreaultjtaylor, ok. I have to modify the debian/rules accordingly... but I don't have to modify the original Makefile, right?20:01
jtaylordepends20:01
jtaylorif the original makefile supports parallel builds20:01
aboudreaultok20:02
aboudreaultI see 5-6 X.symbols file in the debian dir. (symboles.amd64 etc..) How are they generated?21:33
jtaylordpkg-gensymbols21:35
jtayloror the kde helper tools21:35
jtaylorhttp://pkg-kde.alioth.debian.org/symbolfiles.html21:35
aboudreaultjtaylor, but dpkg-gensymbols are generated during the build, aren't they?21:37
aboudreaultI see the symbols file in the repo. why are they kept.21:38
jtaylorno they are generated by the packager21:38
jtaylorthey are used to minimize the version dependencies of rdepends and a very coarse check for abi breakage21:39
aboudreaultok, will read the doc of dpkg-gensymbols. thanks.21:42
jtaylorare you packaging a C or C++ library?21:43
aboudreaultC++21:43
jtaylor:/21:43
jtaylorsymbol files and c++ are a very ugly combination21:44
aboudreaultwell... it's C/C++ a lot.21:44
micahgtumbleweed: idk, if it is, that's bad IMHO21:57
micahgshould I file a bug?21:57
