poolieis there a policy about installation of ubuntu packages not being interactive by default?02:55
psusithe only kind of interactive they can be is having debconf questions02:56
poolieright, but there should be no debconf questions at the default level?02:56
psusiwell, don't go asking questions that aren't required at the low priority02:58
poolieright02:59
psusiif it must have an answer to install, then use high priority to force it to be asked... but if it's more of an optional thing you can do with sensible defaults, use low priority to prevent it from being asked on normal installs02:59

bkerensadholbach: If a package has "Standards-Version: 3.8.210:21
bkerensa" it should be bumped up?10:21
dholbachbkerensa, if it's a package which exists in debian it does not make sense to just update the string - it's a diff we would have to carry on our own10:22
dholbachin that case just leave it to the maintainer to update it10:22
bkerensaok10:22
dholbachif it's an ubuntu package and you want to update the standards version make sure you have a look at what changed from that version of debian policy to what's current and make adjustments to the package if necessary - then you can go and update it if you like10:25
cjwatsonthere's an upgrading checklist in Debian policy10:26
cjwatsonthe point isn't to have the string current at all costs, it's to act as a reminder for what version of policy the package has been checked up to10:27

theozaurusHi, I'm attempting to package up Passenger with Ruby 1.9.3 on Lucid using packages taken from Precise and dotdeb. I've got stuck though in that when I upload to PPA and it attempts to build it cannot find the rake command. Running it locally is fine and it has the correct build dependencies to get Rake, however when running dh_clean it just gives me "Command not found" on the PPA build server. How can I better debug the situation?15:49
cjwatsoncheck your Build-Depends15:51
cjwatsonno doubt locally you just already have that package installed15:51
theozauruscjwatson: I'll have another look!15:53
* cjwatson looks at the failed build logs15:53
cjwatsonNo sign of rake in your Build-Depends; that'll be the problem15:54
cjwatsonalso I think I'd recommend calling rake simply as rake, not as '/usr/bin/rake1.9.3'15:55
cjwatson"Remove rake as a dependency, this is included in Ruby 1.9.315:55
cjwatson" - it's still a separate binary package15:56
theozauruscjwatson: In my Ruby build it packages it15:58
theozauruscjwatson: I've switched it to rake1.9.1 which seems to be working. I think the issue is that it creates symnlinks to rake1.9.3 which Make doesn't pick up. Could that be possible?15:59
theozauruscjwatson: That was very fast work in finding the repo!15:59
cjwatsontheozaurus: perhaps you need a ruby-defaults upload in your PPA if you want the unversioned symlinks to be present16:00
cjwatsontheozaurus: Google is occasionally my friend :-)16:00
theozaurusAh i'll have a look at the ruby-defaults package. As you may have guessed debian packaging is very new to me so just trying to feel my way through.16:01
cjwatsonhm, the business of rake shipping /usr/bin/rake (as a real file, not a symlink!) and ruby1.9.1 shipping /usr/bin/rake1.9.1 even in the primary Ubuntu archive is kind of odd16:03
cjwatsonso having ruby-defaults do that would introduce an awkward file conflict16:03
pitticnd: are you aware of the non-applying patch in xserver-xorg-input-evdev? are you working on it ATM, or need help:?16:03

cndhmm... why didn't I get an email about the build failure?16:05
cjwatsontheozaurus: maybe you are better off calling it as rake1.9.1 for now; if you want rake1.9.3, you need a Build-Depends on ruby1.9.3 which contains it (in your PPA)16:05

hertonpitti, any reason linux-versatile shouldn't be moved to main? Seems an error it being on universe16:39

=== dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates
SpamapSI'm going to try setting the quilt-commit-policy to 'applied' and see if that resolves it19:30
barrySpamapS: so, i've confirmed that when bug 929164 is hit, all you need to do is `bzr rm` (no arguments) to be able to build the source package (no debcommit required, but probably has the same underlying effect on the package)19:31

=== pp7_ is now known as malkauns
SpamapSwhere exactly can I set this 'quilt-commit-policy' ?19:34
SpamapSThere's no docs for it..19:34
* SpamapS should perhaps ask jelmer19:34
SpamapSjelmer: here?19:34
barrySpamapS: yeah, i did find them, but i forget where19:34
barryyou add them to debian/bzr-builddeb.conf which is an ini file iirc19:34
jelmerSpamapS: hi19:35
SpamapSjelmer: I'm trying to figure out how to set the quilt-commit-policy = applied19:35
barryhi jelmer!  more data on bug 92916419:35
ubottuLaunchpad bug 929164 in Ubuntu Distributed Development "Build problem after `bzr merge`ing source packages" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/92916419:35
SpamapSseems to me that the policy should be inferred from debian/source/format , shouldn't it?19:37
jelmerSpamapS: what are you trying to do exactly?19:38
jelmerSpamapS: quilt-commit-policy by default is disabled19:38
SpamapSjelmer: I want patches applied to a branch when I commit19:39
jelmerSpamapS: ah, ok - in that case you want 'echo [BUILDDEB]\nquilt-commit-policy = applied\n' > debian/bzr-builddeb.conf19:40
SpamapSjelmer: mostly for the greater purpose of testing why merging lp:debian/cyrus-sasl2 into lp:ubuntu/cyrus-sasl2 ends up deleting the entire .pc directory19:40
jelmerSpamapS: that would probably be because the smart quilt merging kicks in - it unapplies patches during the merge19:41
barrySpamapS here's where jelmer describes configuration: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ubuntu.devel/3474719:42
barryjelmer: and when there's conflicts the patches don't get applied because the process stops, which makes sense19:43
dupondjeSomebody here around with some gdebi/apt knowledge? Got a weird issue with a package, depends are mysql-client-5.1 | mysql-client, but get the following error on install (gdebi: http://paste.ubuntu.com/840803/ or apt http://paste.ubuntu.com/840800/ )19:43
jelmerSpamapS, barry: also http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~bzr-builddeb-hackers/bzr-builddeb/trunk/view/head:/doc/user_manual/configuration.rst19:44
barryjelmer: thanks, i'll add a link to that from the packaging guide19:45
SpamapSok so the unapply is fine, but how do I magically then tell the smart quilte merging to re-apply ?19:46
SpamapSif I quilt push -a myself.. I have to then bzr add ..19:48
* SpamapS is so confused19:49
lifelessSpamapS: orly :P19:50
SpamapSOk, so doing   bzr merge deb ubuntu, then resolving the conflicts, then doing 'bzr rm', then 'quilt push -a', then 'bzr add', then debcommit .. that worked19:51
jelmerSpamapS: so, the issue seems to be that if there are conflicts during the patch applying we leave the tree as is19:53
barryjelmer: could `bzr resolve` when there are no more conflicts clean everything up?19:54
SpamapSto be clear, there were no conflicts during the _quilt_ patching, only during the bzr merge process19:54
barrySpamapS: after that last debcommit though, can you still `bzr bd -S` ?19:54
SpamapSbarry: yes!19:55
barrySpamapS: cool.  failed for me, but let me try again with your recipe19:55
SpamapSbarry: both before and after the debcommit actually19:55
jelmerbarry: yeah, I guess we could have that apply the quilt patches. It might be a bit odd though19:55
SpamapSjelmer: I'd be in support of that.. since that is the point at which the manual merge is over.19:56
SpamapSEven if it just reminded me to quilt push -a / bzr add .. :)19:56
jelmerSpamapS: ok, that's certainly possible19:56
* jelmer pastes a bit of IRC conversation in the bug19:57
barrySpamapS, jelmer confirmed that SpamapS's recipe works.  which makes sense since that's probably exactly what happens if there are no merge conflicts19:59

dupondjeanyone ? :)20:21
BenCdupondje: it's not an issue…you don't have either of those packages installed20:24
dupondjeBenC: shouldn't gdebi fetch the missing depend ?20:24
BenCdupondje: your original pastebin showed you using dpkg -i20:25
dupondjehttp://paste.ubuntu.com/840803/20:25
BenCdupondje: that's still dpkg output20:26
BenCdupondje: why not just do "sudo apt-get install mysql-client"20:26
dupondjejtaylor made the output btw20:27
dupondjenot having a precise system here20:27
BenCdupondje: this is likely a better question for #ubuntu, either way20:28
dupondjesee https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/automysqlbackup/+bug/93112320:28
ubottuUbuntu bug 931123 in automysqlbackup (Ubuntu) "Sync automysqlbackup 2.6+debian-1 (universe) from Debian testing (main)" [Wishlist,Incomplete]20:29
AmpelbeinThe "real" question is: Is it a bug in the package to list a non-existend depends first. As in "mysql-client-5.1 | mysql-client", where the former is not available in Ubuntu.20:29
BenCIt's not a bug at all for that to happen20:30
BenCThe whole reason for "foo | bar" syntax is for that very reason20:30
BenCWell, for similar reasons, but that is one of them20:30
=== tobin is now known as joshuaBRB
AmpelbeinSee, that's what I thought. But there are developers around who won't sync such a package, because "I like stuff gdebi installable".20:32
dupondjeIt looked just fine to me also indeed ...20:33
broderAmpelbein: then fix gdebi20:33
BenCYeah, because apt will likely install it just fine20:33
Ampelbeinbroder: I don't even use gdebi.20:33
brodererr, in spite of the highlight, that was directed at the abstract "you" :)20:34
SpamapSHm, is a versioned build-depends that will prevent building cyrus-sasl2 against an old buggy version of heimdal enough to keep a delta from Debian?20:34
BenCarguably, in this case, I would think that the "mysql-client-5.1" portion of that depend is pretty pointless20:35
BenCsince it and all mysql-client-x.y packages should provide mysql-client anyway20:35
SpamapSBenC: agreed20:35
SpamapSin this particular case, just depend on mysql-client20:35
dupondjethats maby true20:35
dupondjebut is it a reason to make a delta with debian ?20:36
dupondjeas its not really wrong ...20:36
BenCdupondje: it is actually not needed, so wrong in a very real sense20:36
BenCSo I would say delta with Debian and provide the feedback that it's superfluous to depend on mysql-client-5.1 specifically when mysql-client is perfectly fine by itself20:38
Laneyit's actually a real package too, so yeah20:38
BenCThe OR syntax was meant for things like "exim4 | mail-transport-agent" where you have competing packages to satisfy the same dependency but one is preferred…this is not such a case20:39
broderuh, that may be a design goal, but is it actually documented that it *must* be used that way?20:41
superm1BenC: noticed you did a mythtv upload to precise a few weeks ago just now.  can you please ping someone in #ubuntu-mythtv (daviey or myself or tgm4883) to merge changes like that so that they don't get missed on uploads that happen from the VCS?20:41
dupondjeok its clear :) going to bugreport in debian20:41
dupondjethanks!20:41
BenCbroder: mucking up the dependency resolution process needlessly is against any design goal, IMO :)20:42
BenCsuperm1: Yeah, sorry…will do next time20:42
superm1thanks20:42

=== salem_ is now known as _salem
SpamapSbarry: so, after all that merging, it turns out that the package can be synced. I figure you guys have the two branches locally that can reproduce the problem.. so once I hear back from you I will sync the package.20:51
SpamapSHey is merge-o-matic broken?20:51
barrySpamapS: i'll let jelmer answer about that.  in my original bug report i had lots of problems getting back to a state where the bug showed up.  but i think we now have enough information for jelmer to do awesome things20:52
SpamapSI uploaded wget on Friday.. still shows needing a merge20:52
AmpelbeinSpamapS: Seems last updated: 10-Feb-2012 04:1020:53
SpamapSbarry: should be easy if we just push the branches to +junk and put the links in the bug20:55
