dupondjeHi, a depend on "mysql-client-5.1 | mysql-client" should just be fine in precise ?08:02
dupondjeas mysql-client is meta package for mysql-client-5.5 ?08:02
micahgbinary depends or build depends?08:06
micahgbinary depends is fine08:07

Rhonda"It would be nice to update the ubuntu software center with an new high resolution icon, a new description and the latest version of wesnoth."13:38
Rhonda… if only I know what's the issue with the current icon or description is in there, and whether wesnoth-1.10 does appear (on precise) in the software center …13:38

Rhondathats french (and 1.8 …)14:08
Rhondathanks :)14:08
mr_pouityeah, it's in French sorry, but at least you can see the icon ;>14:08
Rhondayep :)14:09
Rhondabut not understand the issue with the description14:09
mr_pouitI guess something in app-install-data is wrongly generated14:14
mr_pouitthe icon for 1.10 /usr/share/app-install/icons/wesnoth-1.10-icon doesn't have a (.png) extension14:15
Rhondai think i was told to drop the .png part from the desktop file14:17
Rhondamight that be the reason?14:18
Rhondahmm, no, that seems to have been dropped from 1.8, too14:20
Rhondabut png doesn't scale14:20
Rhondaand I fear I don't have any high resolution icon, I'll ask upstream14:21
Rhondawhat resolution would be needed?  it's 64x64 currently14:22
Rhondaand in your screenshot it looks way smaller than that, mr_pouit14:22
mr_pouityou should probably ask mvo about that14:24

dupondjeIs there a way to see reverse build depends ?14:58
micahgdupondje: reverse-depends -b14:59

Rhondagrep-dctrl -FBuild-Depends,Indep-Build-Depends $package -sPackage /var/lib/apt/lists/*_Sources15:02
Rhondadctrl-tools is quite helpful :)15:03
micahgyes, but we have a tool that does that and makes it pretty15:04
dupondjereverse-build-depends it is no ? :)15:05
dupondjegetting reverse-build-depends: unable to find sources files.15:05
Rhondadctrl-tools is pretty useful for other stuff too  :P15:05
Rhondadupondje: you need to add deb-src lines to your sources.list file15:05
dupondjeRhonda: they are added ... :)15:06
dupondjebut it looks for precise deb-src's prolly ...15:06
dupondjeand dev machine is on oneiric ... so sources.list only contains oneiric shizzle15:06
Rhonda> grep deb-src /etc/apt/sources.list | wc -l15:07
Rhonda815:07
RhondaDon't let your current chosen distribution limit your deb-src entries. :)15:07
Rhondaoh15:07
Rhondagrep -c15:08
* Rhonda hides for useless use of wc :)15:08
dupondjehmz15:12
dupondjeadded precise deb-src's in sources.list15:12
dupondjemain/universe and multiverse15:12
dupondjebut it doesn't seem to find universe with reverse-build-depends15:12
micahgdupondje: reverse-depends isn't dependent on anything on your local system (aside from the ubuntu-dev-tools from precise)15:13
dupondjemicahg: it does look at entries in sources.list ?15:14
micahgdupondje: no, it uses a service (either LP or something from Debian), not so sure on the implementation details15:15
geserdoesn't it use a "web-service" on ubuntuwire?15:15
geseror do I mix it with an other script?15:16

dupondjethx15:23
Rhondaany backporters around? what's the proper suffix for the version string for backporting from precise to e.g. lucid?15:23
tumbleweedRhonda: backportpackage should do the right thing (and the suffix will be ~lucid1 IIRC)15:24
Rhondasource change needed, so that tool is out of scope15:24
tumbleweedright15:24
micahgRhonda: yes, ~lucid1 is appropriate, but I think we (backporters) still need a debdiff15:25
tumbleweedbroder: ^ your backports documentation doesn't mention this15:25
Rhondamicahg: sure, but that debdiff has to contain the version in the changelog already :)15:26

PatrickNLGoodday! Sorry for bothering, but I really need some help with a package. The upstream tarball contains a debian/patches/x.diff file which I want to get rid of (actually, I want to get rid of the whole upstream debian/*). Currently, an older version of the package tries to achieve this in the "get-orig-source" target, but this approach doesn't seem to work. If I upload my results to Launchpad Buildserver (my PPA) the packages fails18:08
PatrickNLto build because of the upstream patch file. Any hint is appreciated :)18:08
jtaylor3.0 packages should remove upstream debian/ packages on repack18:09
jtaylorbut that has other issues, you should repack the orig source18:09
PatrickNLit's a 1.0 package :S18:10
jtaylorand hit upstream with a large stick18:10
jtaylorwhy do they patch their own source?18:11
PatrickNLunfortunate, we don't live in an ideal world :(18:11
PatrickNL:)18:12
PatrickNLBut, your suggestion would be to migrate it to a 3.0 package, and implement a "repack" target in the rules file?18:13
jtaylorrepacking is not done during the build but before18:13
jtayloryou take the orig tarball, remove the debian/ and then consider that your new orig tarball18:14
jtaylorwith a version suffix like +dsX or  +dfsgX18:14
PatrickNLok, thanks18:16
Rhondamicahg: Actually I still wonder whether going through with a source-change upload for wesnoth-1.10 instead of *also* backporting fonts-droid to avoid the source change is really the better path …18:37
dupondjecould somebody check https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/automysqlbackup/+bug/93112318:47
ubottuUbuntu bug 931123 in automysqlbackup (Ubuntu) "Sync automysqlbackup 2.6+debian-1 (universe) from Debian testing (main)" [Wishlist,Incomplete]18:47
dupondjeno idea why it would fail to install18:48
dupondjeanyone ?18:58
Ampelbeindupondje: No idea, works fine when put in an apt repository.19:08
Ampelbeindpkg -i .... && apt-get -f install wants to remove the package, as the report says. But that shouldn't matter for installability checks.19:09
AmpelbeinI would say it's a bug/oversight in apt, it's definitely not a problem with your package.19:10
dupondjejtaylor: there ?19:14
jtaylordupondje: yes19:14
dupondjeyou have a log when you tried to install automysqlbakup ?19:15
jtaylorno it just says cannot install or removes it again depending on what tool you use19:16
dupondjethats odd, as it should just install correctly when you have 'mysql-client' installed ?19:16
AmpelbeinIt works in a apt-archive, so those tools need to get fixed imho.19:17
jtaylormaybe but the fix is trivial19:18
dupondjeits indeed easy to fix, but still it should not be needed19:19
jtaylorfile a bug against the tools then19:20

jtayloror Cannot install 'mysql-client-5.1'19:25
RhondaAmpelbein: why would apt-get -f install get the package removed?19:25
jtaylorbecause it can't satisfy the dependency, it probably does not check the or19:26
Rhondathen its a bug in the package19:26
Ampelbeinno19:26
AmpelbeinDepends: mysql-client-5.1 | mysql-client19:27
Rhondaif its dependencies cant be satisfied, how is that NOT a bug in the package?19:27
AmpelbeinIt's a OR dependency.19:27
Rhondaso?19:27
jtaylorits a bug in the package, its using features not generally supported19:27
Rhondais either possible to get satisfied?19:27
Rhondauh?19:27
Rhondaor dependencies are generally supported19:27
AmpelbeinYes, rhonda, the latter is satisfieable.19:27
jtaylorapparently not if one of the or's does nto exist19:28
Rhondathen why claim it cant be satisfied? :)19:28
dupondjemysql-client is metapackage for mysql-client-5.5 so :)19:28
dupondjeRhonda: see http://paste.ubuntu.com/840800/19:28
AmpelbeinYou'd have to ask apt why it thinks it can't be satisfied when using "apt-get -f install". It works perfectly fine when downloading from a repository.19:29
dupondjeand if you install mysql-client, you can install it with dpkg ?19:29
AmpelbeinYes.19:30
dupondjeSo guess it can be synced then ... :) only need to get the apt-get bug fixed, but thats quite minor no ?19:31
jtaylorI'm not going to sync it, I like stuff gdebi installable19:32
jtaylorI also get Could not open required defaults file: /etc/mysql/debian.cnf19:34
jtayloris that a chroot issue?19:34
