[06:13] <TheMuso> What directory is one supposed to upload to on revu? I am using dput in precise, and the default revu config doesn't seem to be working.
[07:47] <dholbach> good morning
[08:02] <dupondje> Hi, a depend on "mysql-client-5.1 | mysql-client" should just be fine in precise ?
[08:02] <dupondje> as mysql-client is meta package for mysql-client-5.5 ?
[08:06] <micahg> binary depends or build depends?
[08:07] <micahg> binary depends is fine
[08:08]  * micahg wonders why he thinks there would be binary depends on mysql-client
[08:26] <dupondje> micahg: its binary depends
[08:26] <dupondje> http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=users/zigo/automysqlbackup.git;a=blob;f=debian/control
[08:27] <dupondje> so https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/automysqlbackup/+bug/931123 should be just fine no ?
[08:30] <micahg> dupondje: yes, that's fine
[08:45] <TheMuso> What directory is one supposed to upload to on revu? I am using dput in precise, and the default revu config doesn't seem to be working.
[08:52] <TheMuso> It seems /incoming doesn't exist, and the dput precise config for review uses /cinoming for uploads...
[08:55] <cancer> can any one help me in contributing to Ubuntu
[10:19] <bkerensa> Anyone around for a quick question on low priority values in debian/control?
[10:19] <bkerensa> :)
[12:17] <geser> bkerensa: just ask your question
[13:38] <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 …
[14:04] <mr_pouit> Rhonda: http://imagebin.org/198691
[14:08] <Rhonda> thats french (and 1.8 …)
[14:08] <Rhonda> thanks :)
[14:08] <mr_pouit> yeah, it's in French sorry, but at least you can see the icon ;>
[14:09] <Rhonda> yep :)
[14:09] <Rhonda> but not understand the issue with the description
[14:14] <mr_pouit> I guess something in app-install-data is wrongly generated
[14:15] <mr_pouit> the icon for 1.10 /usr/share/app-install/icons/wesnoth-1.10-icon doesn't have a (.png) extension
[14:17] <Rhonda> i think i was told to drop the .png part from the desktop file
[14:18] <Rhonda> might that be the reason?
[14:20] <Rhonda> hmm, no, that seems to have been dropped from 1.8, too
[14:20] <Rhonda> but png doesn't scale
[14:21] <Rhonda> and I fear I don't have any high resolution icon, I'll ask upstream
[14:22] <Rhonda> what resolution would be needed?  it's 64x64 currently
[14:22] <Rhonda> and in your screenshot it looks way smaller than that, mr_pouit
[14:24] <mr_pouit> you should probably ask mvo about that
[14:54] <raju> ajmitch: hello
[14:58] <dupondje> Is there a way to see reverse build depends ?
[14:59] <micahg> dupondje: reverse-depends -b
[15:02] <dupondje> micahg: in what package is reverse-depends ?
[15:02] <micahg> ubuntu-dev-toools
[15:02] <micahg> err.2 o's
[15:02] <Rhonda> grep-dctrl -FBuild-Depends,Indep-Build-Depends $package -sPackage /var/lib/apt/lists/*_Sources
[15:03] <Rhonda> dctrl-tools is quite helpful :)
[15:04] <micahg> yes, but we have a tool that does that and makes it pretty
[15:05] <dupondje> reverse-build-depends it is no ? :)
[15:05] <dupondje> getting reverse-build-depends: unable to find sources files.
[15:05] <Rhonda> dctrl-tools is pretty useful for other stuff too  :P
[15:05] <Rhonda> dupondje: you need to add deb-src lines to your sources.list file
[15:06] <dupondje> Rhonda: they are added ... :)
[15:06] <dupondje> but it looks for precise deb-src's prolly ...
[15:06] <dupondje> and dev machine is on oneiric ... so sources.list only contains oneiric shizzle
[15:07] <Rhonda> > grep deb-src /etc/apt/sources.list | wc -l
[15:07] <Rhonda> 8
[15:07] <Rhonda> Don't let your current chosen distribution limit your deb-src entries. :)
[15:07] <Rhonda> oh
[15:08] <Rhonda> grep -c
[15:08]  * Rhonda hides for useless use of wc :)
[15:12] <dupondje> hmz
[15:12] <dupondje> added precise deb-src's in sources.list
[15:12] <dupondje> main/universe and multiverse
[15:12] <dupondje> but it doesn't seem to find universe with reverse-build-depends
[15:13] <micahg> dupondje: reverse-depends isn't dependent on anything on your local system (aside from the ubuntu-dev-tools from precise)
[15:14] <dupondje> micahg: it does look at entries in sources.list ?
[15:15] <micahg> dupondje: no, it uses a service (either LP or something from Debian), not so sure on the implementation details
[15:15] <geser> doesn't it use a "web-service" on ubuntuwire?
[15:16] <geser> or do I mix it with an other script?
[15:20] <micahg> I think it does, but I didn't want to say for sure
[15:20] <Rhonda> def query_rdepends(package, release, arch,
[15:20] <Rhonda>                    server='http://qa.ubuntuwire.org/rdepends'):
[15:20] <Rhonda>     """Look up a packages reverse-dependencies on the Ubuntuwire
[15:20] <Rhonda>     Reverse- webservice
[15:20] <Rhonda>     """
[15:21] <Rhonda> looking at the code it does :)
[15:21] <tumbleweed> dupondje: reverse-build-depends is the old tool. revese-depends is the new one
[15:22] <Rhonda> reverse-depends -b :)
[15:23] <dupondje> found now :) added ubuntu-dev-tools ppa :D
[15:23] <dupondje> thx
[15:23] <Rhonda> any backporters around? what's the proper suffix for the version string for backporting from precise to e.g. lucid?
[15:24] <tumbleweed> Rhonda: backportpackage should do the right thing (and the suffix will be ~lucid1 IIRC)
[15:24] <Rhonda> source change needed, so that tool is out of scope
[15:24] <tumbleweed> right
[15:25] <micahg> Rhonda: yes, ~lucid1 is appropriate, but I think we (backporters) still need a debdiff
[15:25] <tumbleweed> broder: ^ your backports documentation doesn't mention this
[15:26] <Rhonda> micahg: sure, but that debdiff has to contain the version in the changelog already :)
[15:27] <micahg> Rhonda: indeed, I appreciate you trying to do it right the first time :)
[15:27] <tumbleweed> lol: https://lwn.net/Articles/477096/
[15:28] <micahg> lol
[15:30] <eQuiNoX__> lol
[16:41] <broder> tumbleweed: patches welcome! :)
[16:41] <broder> i'll take a look at some point
[16:48] <tumbleweed> broder: thought you might say that :)
[16:48] <broder> it *is* a wiki
[16:49] <tumbleweed> I'm also not a backporter. but yes, I should have just fixde it
[18:08] <PatrickNL> Goodday! 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 fails
[18:08] <PatrickNL> to build because of the upstream patch file. Any hint is appreciated :)
[18:09] <jtaylor> 3.0 packages should remove upstream debian/ packages on repack
[18:09] <jtaylor> but that has other issues, you should repack the orig source
[18:10] <PatrickNL> it's a 1.0 package :S
[18:10] <jtaylor> and hit upstream with a large stick
[18:11] <jtaylor> why do they patch their own source?
[18:11] <PatrickNL> unfortunate, we don't live in an ideal world :(
[18:12] <PatrickNL> :)
[18:13] <PatrickNL> But, your suggestion would be to migrate it to a 3.0 package, and implement a "repack" target in the rules file?
[18:13] <jtaylor> repacking is not done during the build but before
[18:14] <jtaylor> you take the orig tarball, remove the debian/ and then consider that your new orig tarball
[18:14] <jtaylor> with a version suffix like +dsX or  +dfsgX
[18:16] <PatrickNL> ok, thanks
[18:37] <Rhonda> micahg: 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 …
[18:47] <dupondje> could somebody check https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/automysqlbackup/+bug/931123
[18:48] <dupondje> no idea why it would fail to install
[18:58] <dupondje> anyone ?
[19:08] <Ampelbein> dupondje: No idea, works fine when put in an apt repository.
[19:09] <Ampelbein> dpkg -i .... && apt-get -f install wants to remove the package, as the report says. But that shouldn't matter for installability checks.
[19:10] <Ampelbein> I would say it's a bug/oversight in apt, it's definitely not a problem with your package.
[19:14] <dupondje> jtaylor: there ?
[19:14] <jtaylor> dupondje: yes
[19:15] <dupondje> you have a log when you tried to install automysqlbakup ?
[19:16] <jtaylor> no it just says cannot install or removes it again depending on what tool you use
[19:16] <dupondje> thats odd, as it should just install correctly when you have 'mysql-client' installed ?
[19:17] <Ampelbein> It works in a apt-archive, so those tools need to get fixed imho.
[19:18] <jtaylor> maybe but the fix is trivial
[19:19] <dupondje> its indeed easy to fix, but still it should not be needed
[19:20] <jtaylor> file a bug against the tools then
[19:21] <jtaylor> barry: numpy 1.6 merge https://code.launchpad.net/~jtaylor/ubuntu/precise/python-numpy/merge-1.6/+merge/92671
[19:21] <jtaylor> comments welcome
[19:22] <dupondje> Ampelbein: jtaylor: any debug output of the installation of automysqlbackup? don't have a native precise system here :)
[19:22] <barry> jtaylor: putting it on the list
[19:23] <Ampelbein> dupondje: http://paste.ubuntu.com/840800/
[19:24] <jtaylor> gdebi log: http://paste.ubuntu.com/840803/
[19:25] <jtaylor> or Cannot install 'mysql-client-5.1'
[19:25] <Rhonda> Ampelbein: why would apt-get -f install get the package removed?
[19:26] <jtaylor> because it can't satisfy the dependency, it probably does not check the or
[19:26] <Rhonda> then its a bug in the package
[19:26] <Ampelbein> no
[19:27] <Ampelbein> Depends: mysql-client-5.1 | mysql-client
[19:27] <Rhonda> if its dependencies cant be satisfied, how is that NOT a bug in the package?
[19:27] <Ampelbein> It's a OR dependency.
[19:27] <Rhonda> so?
[19:27] <jtaylor> its a bug in the package, its using features not generally supported
[19:27] <Rhonda> is either possible to get satisfied?
[19:27] <Rhonda> uh?
[19:27] <Rhonda> or dependencies are generally supported
[19:27] <Ampelbein> Yes, rhonda, the latter is satisfieable.
[19:28] <jtaylor> apparently not if one of the or's does nto exist
[19:28] <Rhonda> then why claim it cant be satisfied? :)
[19:28] <dupondje> mysql-client is metapackage for mysql-client-5.5 so :)
[19:28] <dupondje> Rhonda: see http://paste.ubuntu.com/840800/
[19:29] <Ampelbein> You'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] <dupondje> and if you install mysql-client, you can install it with dpkg ?
[19:30] <Ampelbein> Yes.
[19:31] <dupondje> So guess it can be synced then ... :) only need to get the apt-get bug fixed, but thats quite minor no ?
[19:32] <jtaylor> I'm not going to sync it, I like stuff gdebi installable
[19:34] <jtaylor> I also get Could not open required defaults file: /etc/mysql/debian.cnf
[19:34] <jtaylor> is that a chroot issue?
[19:43] <tumbleweed> Adri2000: here you go: http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/transitions/opencv.html
[19:45] <jtaylor> opencv is such a small transition? :O
[19:45] <tumbleweed> vtk5.4 was smaller, and much harder :)
[19:45] <tumbleweed> oh, actually about the same size
[19:46] <tumbleweed> those science packages...
[19:46] <jtaylor> ^^
[19:47]  * ajmitch is really glad that debian transitioned to boost1.48 after DIF
[19:47] <highvoltage> tumbleweed: crap. I forgot to give you your power supply last week :(
[19:48] <Adri2000> tumbleweed: oh, great, didn't know we had that in ubuntu as well
[19:48] <broder> is there any way to tell sponsor-patch that it should sync from testing?
[19:49] <tumbleweed> highvoltage: oops. Are you back in canada yet?
[19:51] <tumbleweed> broder: doesn't look like it. It just uses -V
[19:51] <broder> ok. i'll file a bug
[19:51] <tumbleweed> bdrung: I suppose we should do a final u-d-t upload for precise some time soon
[22:50] <TheMuso> Is anybody else unable to upload to review? Seems the /incoming directory doesn't exist...
[22:51] <broder> ajmitch: ^
[22:52] <jtaylor> someone else had that problem a while ago too
[22:52] <jtaylor> seems to a general issue
[22:53] <bdrung> tumbleweed: feel free to do the final u-d-t upload
[23:05] <ajmitch> TheMuso: I can take a look
[23:09] <micahg> Rhonda: I would tend to say a source name change is worth a sourceful backport upload
[23:14] <TheMuso> ajmitch: Thanks. When I use lftp to look at ftp://revu.ubuntuwire.com, I see no incoming directory, as required by precise's revu dput config.
[23:15] <ajmitch> TheMuso: right, I'm just trying to figure out what changed, this appears to have happened when it rebooted last
[23:15] <tumbleweed> dupondje: your merge request bugs aren't very descriptive
[23:16] <ajmitch> TheMuso: can you retry?
[23:16] <ajmitch> no, looks like it won't like the symlink there..
[23:21] <dupondje> tumbleweed: none are really changing alot, could you give me the one
[23:22] <ajmitch> TheMuso: ok, incoming/ is a directory now, I was just trying to hide the parent directory contents properly :)
[23:23] <tumbleweed> dupondje: you mean I need to read the patch before I can see how much work its going to be?
[23:24] <dupondje> you are talking of what merge now ?
[23:24] <tumbleweed> the ones that say "Merge!"
[23:25] <dupondje> well both merges (pdns & snort) are quite small ...
[23:25] <tumbleweed> you know that, I don't
[23:25] <tumbleweed> I also can't see how important they are (compared to all the other last-minute-before-FF things in the queue)
[23:25] <broder> tumbleweed: thanks for grabbing the u-d-t patch
[23:26] <tumbleweed> broder: np
[23:26] <dupondje> i'll put some info (changelog + description) in them
[23:27] <tumbleweed> dupondje: thanks
[23:28] <dupondje> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pdns/+bug/931133 something like this ?
[23:29] <tumbleweed> much better (although I can't help you with that one, it's main)
[23:29] <micahg> pdns needs to get in, I can take a look later tonight
[23:29] <dupondje> micahg: its quite (extremely small) patch ;)
[23:29] <dupondje> only had to fix the multiarch libmysql
[23:29] <micahg> dupondje: sorry for the bad advice about automysqlbackup, I'm not quite sure why it behaves that way (as in it doesn't install)
[23:30] <dupondje> no problem! got some info in -devel
[23:30] <micahg> but if switching the arguments makes it installable, then let's just do that
[23:30] <dupondje> well 1 can be dropped
[23:30] <dupondje> doesn't need to depend on mysql-client or mysql-client-xx
[23:30] <dupondje> just mysql-client is ok
[23:31] <TheMuso> ajmitch: Thanks, will try now.
[23:31] <dupondje> going to try to catch the debian maintainer if possible, else i'll put a merge on LP
[23:31] <dupondje> tumbleweed: pdns is universe?
[23:31] <dupondje> release (universe)
[23:32] <dupondje> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pdns/2.9.22-9ubuntu4
[23:32] <tumbleweed> dupondje: ah. it must have once been main
[23:32] <tumbleweed> lp lists it as main in some places
[23:33] <dupondje> yea indeed
[23:33] <dupondje> but for precise its universe ... :)
[23:36] <tumbleweed> ok, having a look
[23:36] <dupondje> updated https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/snort/+bug/931454
[23:36] <dupondje> this one is most important :)
[23:57] <l3on> dupondje, your bug got a comment :)
