blairchecking out the source of python-defaults from bzr doesn't seem to match the history in debian/changelog from apt-get source, i cannot see changes in bzr that correspond to the changelog modifications00:03
blairi did a "bzr branch http://alioth.debian.org/anonscm/bzr/pkg-python/python-defaults-debian co" and then a "bzr log -v"00:04

CoreySeeing a weird issue.  Made a few changes, did a git merge from upstream, now the build process is throwing: aborting due to unexpected upstream changes, see /tmp/sa... The problem is that's in a pbuilder chroot which is destroyed before I can read the file.00:22
CoreyI've built all the files it's using for the build (the tarball, the dsc, etc) via script.00:23
CoreyWait, it may be an outdated pbuilder chroot.00:26
CoreyYeah, that didn't sort it.00:30
CoreyWhat does pbuilder see as "upstream" in this context?00:31

zookojtaylor: okay, I'm trying this recipe: http://codepad.org/HxE9Do4d05:26
zookoThanks!05:26
zookoHm, I need to change the debian patches that no longer apply correctly.05:31
* zooko looks for the "fork me" button on https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/debian/sid/pycryptopp/sid05:33
* zooko runs "bzr branch lp:debian/pycryptopp"05:36
RAOFzooko: Yeah, Launchpad doesn't have a “fork me” button because bzr branches don't require the elaborate set up that git branches do.  ie: If you want to push a bzr branch somewhere, you ‘bzr push $SOMEWHERE’, and it works.05:42
zookoWhere would $SOMEWHERE be for the purpose of forking lp:debian/pycryptopp to ~zooko/debian/pycryptopp in order to offer new versions of the debian patcheas?05:45
zookoIdeally a bzr-builder recipe will be able to merge/pull/nest/use my resulting "~zooko/debian/pycryptopp" instead of or in addition to lp:debian/pycryptopp.05:45
RAOFbzr push lp:~zooko/$PROJECT/pycryptopp05:45
zookoThanks!05:46
RAOF$PROJECT is probably pycryptopp in this case; it could also be +junk if you don't want it to show up anywhere.05:46
RAOFAnd the final component can be whatever you like.05:46
zookoOkay.05:47
zookoIf I'm sending an email to submit@bugs.debian.org, is there an email address that I should have it be forwarded to in order to register it in the Ubuntu bug tracking system?06:49
micahgzooko: https://help.launchpad.net/Bugs/EmailInterface06:55
zookomicahg: thanks!06:56
zooko(Unfortunately I already sent the email to debian.)06:56
zookoI should have waited longer.06:56
micahgzooko: probably better to do them separately as the control fields are different, but I assume you have a sent mail folder? :)06:57
zookoOh, I've already opened it through the web UI on launchpad.06:57
micahgthat works too :)06:57
zookoI was just curious if telling Debian to send mail to Ubuntu with a pseudo-header would... help.06:58
zookoHelp them link their databases to each other...06:58
micahgwell, you can link to debian in Launchpad and to Launchpad in Debian, the question is which is upstream in this case07:00
zookoWhy is that the question?07:05
zookoI mean, what does it matter?07:05
micahgoh, well, in launchpad it doesn't per se, but in Debian, the official "link" AIUI is for bugs forwarded upstream07:06
micahgyou can still include the LP bug # in the report though and some DDs will close the launchpad bug in their changelog as well07:06
zookoThanks.07:06
zookoIs "link" one of the pseudo-headers I can put in debian bug mail?07:07
zookoI didn't see that, but I searched for "ubuntu", "launchpad", and "url", but not for "link". :-)07:07
micahgzooko: I think you actually want forwarded for the keyword07:08
micahgbut that should only be use if Debian's not upstream which is usually not the case for an Ubuntu bug07:08
zookoHm.07:09
micahgOTOH, if you're pointing to a bug in a project on launchpad like synaptic or some other thing maintained in Launchpad, it would be quite appropriate to use forwarded in Debian07:10
zookoAnybody want to help with bzr-builder?07:35

zookoHello, folks! I'm trying to configure autobuilds of nightly .deb's of a project, and currently it fails with dpkg-source: error: can't build with source format '3.0 (quilt)': no orig.tar file found12:37

brendan0powersI'm interested in getting a package of mine into universe for 12.0415:29
brendan0powersBut I'd need some changes to the apparmor profiles for bind9, ntp, and dhcpd315:29
brendan0powersIs this the right place to ask questions about this?15:30
pabelangeradam_g: ping15:31
tumbleweedbrendan0powers: speak to the people who usually look after those packages15:36
brendan0powersOk, thanks15:37
tumbleweedhow invasive are the changes?15:37
brendan0powersI don't think they are too invasive15:37
brendan0powersThe profiles need to be extended to allow them to read some files in sambas private directory15:38
brendan0powersSpecific files15:38
tumbleweed#ubuntu-server maybe?15:38
brendan0powersI'll talk  to the package maintainers15:40
brendan0powersI assume that modifying the profiles during installation is not acceptable?15:41
tumbleweedcorrect. It'd also help if your application was already in the archives15:42
tumbleweedand FF is very very soon15:42
brendan0powersDoes the FF include universe?15:43
tumbleweedyes15:43
brendan0powersAh, I was under the impressions that universe froze later15:43
tumbleweed(although we do grant exceptions)15:43
brendan0powersWell, the apparmor changes are actually for samba4, not for my package15:44
brendan0powersI just set up and configure samba415:44
arandIs it possible to FFE something in advance? I'm in the process of getting sponsorship for a game in Debian, but it will likely not end up in testing before the FF, and I'd really like for it to be in precise...15:45
tumbleweedbrendan0powers: in that case, those are bugs in the apparmor profiles (IMHO)15:45
tumbleweed(assuming it's a sane configuration, which it sounds like)15:46
tumbleweedarand: if it's a leaf package, there shouldn't be any problem15:46
arandtumbleweed: Leaf in terms of dependencies?15:46
tumbleweedyes15:47
arandHmm, it's actually a leaf, and a leaf-branch in that regard, but as a whole they're a leaf, at least.15:48

dholbachstefanct, the application process is explained here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DeveloperMembershipBoard/ApplicationProcess16:10
dholbachstefanct, basically you set up a wiki page (using the template) explaining your involvement, get a few comments from people you've worked with, send a mail to the developer membership board and attend a meeting16:10
