l3onHi all... I've a question about packages have files (script) in /usr/lib/NAME/ directory11:24
l3onfor instance → http://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/all/ivtools-bin/filelist11:24
l3onare they in the right place?11:25
l3onmost of these package are affected by bug like this:11:25
l3on`pkglibdir' is not a legitimate directory for `SCRIPTS'11:25
l3onthere is a "simple" way to fix it ad maintain SCRIPTS or DATA or whatever in the /usr/lib/NAME/ directory ?11:26
cousteauwould it be possible to add Adobe Shockwave to repositories?13:10
cousteauthere's an installation workaround based on Wine and MozPlugger, but it's complicated to set up - it would be nice if a package did that for you13:10
cousteau(similarly to how flashplugin-installer also installs nspluginwrapper and installs the 32b version on 64b machines)13:12

kyoushuuHow could I get a debug package for xchat? I want to fix a bug by checking the debug package, but there's no xchat-dbg package in precise.15:11
debfxkyoushuu: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingProgramCrash15:13
kyoushuuThanks!15:15
kyoushuuIs there any difference if install libgtk2.0-0-dbgsym or libgtk2.0-0-dbg?15:31
Ampelbeinkyoushuu: If both exist, install the -dbg one. -dbgsym are automatically generated, while the -dbg could be built using special debug options.15:32
kyoushuuIf I created my own package, how could I get a -dbg package? I compiled gwaei from git and based the package from the Ubuntu package, but it doesn't have a -dbg package.15:33
cyphermoxkyoushuu: IIRC you just need to have a -dbg package listed in debian/control; and maybe pass --dbg-package=<whatever> to dh_strip15:55
cyphermoxkyoushuu: http://wiki.debian.org/DebugPackage15:56
kyoushuuWhile using these debug packages, how do I set a breakpoint in gdb? I get the following:16:07
kyoushuu   (gdb) b src/fe-gtk/dccgui.c:26416:07
kyoushuu   No source file named src/fe-gtk/dccgui.c.16:07
kyoushuu   Make breakpoint pending on future shared library load? (y or [n])16:07
kyoushuuI'm currently in the xchat-2.8.8 that I got from 'apt-get source xchat'16:07

Atlantic777is testing a development release in chroot ok idea? I'm not using ubuntu but I would like to test few things...17:05
Atlantic777Is it generaly better to have a "normal install" or chroot is good enough? Can I run some gui apps which exist only in chrooted system?17:05
tumbleweedAtlantic777: depends how much you want to test, and what you want to test17:05
tumbleweedchroots are great for most packages, and fine for most GUI stuff17:06
Atlantic777I would like to try how will some my apps work on new ubuntu releases.17:07
tumbleweedif you want to see how well they work with the standard ubuntu desktop environment, a VM is preferable. If such detials aren't important, a chroot should be fine17:08
cyphermoxif the app is simple enough to install, maybe a live CD might work too17:09
tumbleweed(disclaimer: I don't use a real ubuntu install for day-to-day work, almost everything I do in Ubuntu I build & test in ubuntu chroots)17:11
Atlantic777cool, that's what I need17:11
Atlantic777I'm using some other distro on the desktop and I have ubuntu on the netbook. I'm trying to develop something ubuntu specific and I can't install ubuntu on desktop. So solutions are to develop it on netbook, create vm and develop it there or make chroot. It's some foo pygtk app and I'm testing quickly. Hope that I got my answer, I can use chroot for development and testing. Right?17:13
Atlantic777quickly = this nice dev helper app from http://developer.ubuntu.com/17:14
tumbleweedwhat's ubuntu-specific about it?17:15
Atlantic777that I don't have quickly, couchdb, gtk3 and deb packaging things on gentoo17:16
tumbleweedthe packaging is easily done in a chroot, and gtk3 and couchdb aren't ubuntu-specific17:18
Atlantic777what about unity lenses? can that be tested in chroot?17:19
Atlantic777I find that interesting, too.17:19
tumbleweedAtlantic777: that'd be hard to do in a chroot17:20
Atlantic777tumbleweed: ok...17:21
Atlantic777And what about debootstrap?17:21
tumbleweedwhat about it?17:21
Atlantic777chroot vs debootstrap for this purpose17:22
tumbleweedthey are orthoganal17:22
kyoushuuIs there a command to install source packages? I get "3468/build/buildd/gtk+2.0-2.24.10/gtk/gtkicontheme.c: No such file or directory." when debugging17:45
Ampelbeinkyoushuu: apt-get source <packagename>17:46
tumbleweedalso, -dbg packages17:46
kyoushuubut they are not installed to 3468/build/buildd, should I just recreate those, or is there any command to install the sources there?17:48
kyoushuurather: but they are not installed to /build/buildd, should I just recreate those, or is there any command to install the sources there?17:49
tumbleweedyour debugger should have a way to point it at th esources17:50
kyoushuuAh, okay. But since I download sources to different directories, and I'm lazy, I'll just download them to /build/buildd...17:58
