| micahg | Rhonda: did you test build ejabberd before syncing it? | 06:34 |
| * ajmitch syncs another package (yes, test-built locally) | 06:41 | |
| * micahg hugs ajmitch | 06:43 | |
| ajmitch | I've still got a lot of catching up to do :) | 06:43 |
| ajmitch | still a lot on http://qa.ubuntuwire.com/bugs/rcbugs/ to check over though | 06:45 |
| micahg | yeah, oneiric seems to still be the default there | 06:48 |
| ajmitch | shouldn't be, I changed it | 06:48 |
| * micahg was going to skim for new version RC bug fixes | 06:48 | |
| micahg | ah, is fixed now, thanks | 06:48 |

| * micahg test builds chromium in a clean chroot before uploading | 06:49 | |
| * micahg plans to do another run through the upgrade-software-version bugs tomorrow night to see what can be updated quickly | 06:53 | |
| ajmitch | I saw a merge of pbuilder waiting in ~ubuntu-sponsors | 06:54 |
| ajmitch | it's nice when a debian NMU references an LP bug as well, will a sync using syncpackage automatically close that? | 07:17 |
| micahg | I think so, although, I don't remember the final outcome of that discussion | 07:18 |
| ajmitch | I'll try it & see | 07:18 |
| ajmitch | it's bug 756657 | 07:18 |

| ajmitch | right | 07:19 |
| * broder sighs. the sponsorship queue is still getting longer | 07:20 | |
| ajmitch | broder: how long is it now? | 07:22 |
| broder | 63 | 07:23 |
| broder | in fairness, 1/4 of those are just from today | 07:23 |
| ajmitch | people trying to get in before FF? | 07:23 |
| broder | seems likely | 07:23 |
| broder | and, let's see, only 14 of them are from before 2/1 | 07:24 |
| ajmitch | so at least people aren't havng to wait very long | 07:24 |
| ajmitch | micahg: I see what you mean about ejabberd - I was looking at some other build fallout bugs from the erlang transition in debian, might be a little late to do that for precise :) | 07:25 |
| ajmitch | http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=653966 was the bug I was looking at - the removal of patches because of a newer erlang got me a bit worried about just syncing it | 07:27 |
| ubottu | Debian bug 653966 in yaws "yaws cross site scripting" [Serious,Fixed] | 07:27 |
| Rhonda | micahg: duh, the new erlang not in precise, right %-/ | 07:33 |
| Rhonda | micahg: So actually, it would need a sourceful upload with dropping the versioned b-d on erlang (reverting git commit c352294) | 07:34 |
| Rhonda | .. erlang transition in precise is out of scope, right? :) | 07:35 |
| ajmitch | Rhonda: I'm sure there's plenty of time to get it done :) | 07:36 |
| Rhonda | I am not that deeply involved in erlang besides ejabberd, and I am uncertain about the required impact | 07:36 |
| ajmitch | I think it has potential for a lot of small problems | 07:37 |
| ajmitch | http://lists.debian.org/debian-release/2011/12/msg00296.html doesn't look too bad though | 07:38 |
| Rhonda | ajmitch: jep, that fix is in ejabberd, and it got uploaded to unstable in debian in the meantime :) | 07:43 |
| * ajmitch would be more worried about couchdb | 07:43 | |
| philipballew | Question: to package a deb for debian/Ubuntu, how much actual coding/programing is required? I have herd different things from different people. | 07:43 |
| ajmitch | philipballew: "it depends" | 07:44 |
| ajmitch | it's possible to package something with barely touching a thing | 07:44 |
| ajmitch | or you may have to end up digging into the code & writing patches to solve some problems | 07:45 |
| Rhonda | ajmitch: couchdb got binNMUed and I am not aware of any serious bugreports because of the transition | 07:45 |
| ajmitch | this is why you hear different things from different people, the packages are different :) | 07:45 |
| ajmitch | Rhonda: ubuntu's couchdb is still stuck at 1.0.1 | 07:46 |
| ajmitch | debian has 1.1.1 | 07:46 |
| Rhonda | right | 07:46 |
| Rhonda | well, I will do a sourceful upload for ejabberd then, dropping the version | 07:46 |
| broder | i'm pretty sure that our couchdb is just a little bit of conffile testing away from being at 1.1.1 | 07:46 |
| ajmitch | ok :) | 07:46 |
| Rhonda | and when you decide to bring e15 into the boat, you always can issue a build1 package :) | 07:46 |
| ajmitch | broder: you've managed to dig through that MP? | 07:47 |
| broder | i did, and when all's said and done i'm actually satisfied with it | 07:47 |
| ajmitch | great | 07:47 |
| broder | except that jderose's updates move a conffile between packages, and i want somebody to test whether or not that's going to trigger a conffile conflict | 07:48 |
| philipballew | thank you | 07:49 |
| * ajmitch does not have a current precise VM for testing, but how bad can it break my laptop? :) | 07:49 | |
| * broder disclaims all repsonsibility for the state of ajmitch's laptop | 07:49 | |
| ajmitch | btw, that bug was closed with syncpackage | 07:50 |
| micahg | cool, that's the way it should be :) | 07:50 |
| Rhonda | ajmitch: 2.1.10-2ubuntu1 would be the proper version, right? | 07:51 |
| ajmitch | Rhonda: yep | 07:52 |
| Rhonda | ajmitch: So, can I just dput ubuntu, or would it need to go through some approval? | 07:53 |
| Rhonda | Guess I just dput because I am MOTU, but this is my first sourceful upload :) | 07:54 |
| ajmitch | you're in MOTU, it's in universe | 07:54 |
| ajmitch | should be fine | 07:54 |
| Rhonda | duh | 07:55 |
| ajmitch | as we said, what can possibly go wrong? :) | 07:55 |
| Rhonda | hmm, if I doesnt include the orig tarball it fetches it from debian, right? | 07:55 |

| ockham | hi, i'd like to merge scribus from sid, but i'm a bit confused about merging documentation at the wiki. i'm not a motu, so do i just file a merge request at launchpad? or also build a merged version and upload it to REVU? | 15:10 |
| geser | ockham: first you don't need REVU for a merge | 15:12 |
| ockham | geser: okay; but i'm not a MOTU, so if I do work on the package, how make it available for upload? | 15:12 |
| geser | you can only file a merge request once you have a branch in LP which is ready to get merged (sponsored) | 15:13 |
| tumbleweed | ockham: provide a debdiff (against debian) or a bzr branch | 15:13 |
| geser | "provide a debdiff" = file a bug and attach the debdiff to it | 15:13 |
| ockham | ok, i'll try that | 15:13 |
| tumbleweed | ockham: btw, don't forget we have feature freeze tomorrow evening. work fast :) | 15:14 |
| geser | or merge a package which doesn't introduce new features | 15:14 |
| tumbleweed | or request an exception, if the new features are important | 15:15 |
| ockham | i think it's quite straight-forward, so i shouldn't take too long | 15:15 |
| ockham | oops, scribus is in main. is that a problem? | 15:18 |
| tumbleweed | ockham: no | 15:19 |
| geser | ockham: it shouldn't matter for you if you need a core-dev or a MOTU as sponsor | 15:21 |
| ockham | yikes. just tried debdiff on debian's and ubuntu's .dsc files, and as debian has a new upstream version, that's quite long. | 15:22 |
| ockham | ubuntu has an RC for 1.4.0, debian a post-1.4.0 svn revision | 15:23 |
| ockham | will that be a problem? | 15:23 |
| ockham | the reason i'd like to update is that some relevant bugs got fixed by upstream in between... | 15:23 |
| ockham | tumbleweed, geser: ^ | 15:25 |
| tumbleweed | ockham: the version in ubuntu is based on a previous version from debian | 15:26 |
| tumbleweed | compare against that | 15:26 |
| tumbleweed | (or just grab diffs from mom (merges.ubuntu.com, see grab-merge) | 15:26 |
| ockham | tumbleweed: ok, i'm not sure i'm getting this right. the merge request will require a debdiff from the debian version i'd like to base it on, right? | 15:31 |
| ockham | and grab-merge complains that there is not entry for scribus on m.u.c | 15:31 |
| tumbleweed | ockham: yes, that's usually the easiest diff to review | 15:32 |
| ockham | tumbleweed: but in my case, it will contain a long list of upstream changes | 15:32 |
| tumbleweed | ok, MoM was recently broken and is probably still catching up | 15:33 |
| tumbleweed | err, a merge shouldn't end up wit ha long list of upstream changes | 15:33 |
| tumbleweed | the diff should show the desired changes between debian and ubuntu | 15:33 |
| ockham | but what if, as in this case, debian is based on a newer upstream version? | 15:34 |
| tumbleweed | so provide a diff from that | 15:34 |
| ockham | tumbleweed: hm, makes sense | 15:34 |
| tumbleweed | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/Merging | 15:35 |
| tumbleweed | I think MoM is also currently running against wheezy (our default sync source) not sid | 15:35 |
| tumbleweed | (our default sync source for LTSs) | 15:36 |
| geser | ockham: grab the current delta (mom or from packages.qa.debian.org), apply it on the new debian version (and check if those changes are still needed or perhaps also fixed in debian/upstream), generate new debdiff for you patched version (compare to the unpatched debian version) | 15:37 |
| ockham | geser: that sounds good, i'll try it | 15:37 |
| geser | that's what MoM does (without the checking, that left for the merger) | 15:38 |
| === al-maisan is now known as almaisan-away | ||
| geser | it's not black magic :) | 15:39 |
| ockham | geser: ok, i've tried to apply http://patches.ubuntu.com/s/scribus/scribus_1.4.0.dfsg~rc3+svn20110401-1.1ubuntu1.patch to the current debian source, but patch -p 1 fails -- and it's not obvious to me, why, as the .rej files look quite feasible | 15:43 |
| tumbleweed | ockham: pull-lp-source -d scribus && pull-debian-source -d scribus 1.4.0.dfsg~rc3+svn20110401-1.1 && debdiff .... | 15:45 |
| ockham | tumbleweed: same result. the debdiff that line produces is probably the same as the one found on patches.ubuntu.com, no? | 15:52 |
| tumbleweed | yes, it should be | 15:53 |
| ockham | well it fails :-( | 15:53 |
| tumbleweed | so, yes, the patch probably won't apply cleanly, they almost never will | 15:53 |
| ockham | yeah, but it's strange -- see e.g. http://paste.ubuntu.com/843180/ for changelog.rej | 15:54 |
| tumbleweed | there'll be a new changelog entry in debian, that clashes with the ubuntu one | 15:54 |
| tumbleweed | so, I was wrong, not "almost never will", "never will" | 15:55 |
| ockham | ok, so it's copy-pasting stuff from the patch to those files. | 15:56 |
| ockham | oh well, not so trivial after all... | 15:56 |
| ockham | i'll probably get back to it later... | 15:57 |
| ockham | thx so far! | 15:57 |

| Corey | Hmm. It looks like that package isn't installable in the pbuilder, but clearly exists elsewhere. Is there a sane way to show whcih repository it came from on the installed box? | 22:54 |
| broder | Corey: do you have universe disabled in your pbuilder or something? | 22:54 |
| Corey | broder: Not sure. I didn't do anything magic to create it, which may explain it. | 22:58 |
| tumbleweed | Corey: do a pbuilder update and see if it mentions anything besides main | 22:59 |
| Corey | tumbleweed: Just main. | 22:59 |
| Corey | That'd do it. | 22:59 |
| Corey | Time to fix my pbuilderrc | 22:59 |
