jibelmvo, good morning08:53
jibelmvo, did you revert/change something on Lucid upgrade jobs ? The error 'dpkg is already installed' is back08:53
mvohey jibel08:59
mvojibel: let me check09:00
mvojibel: meh, yes - I think I know what caused this09:00
mvojibel: I think it would be good to get the apt fix  from lucid-proposed to lucid-updates as tihs is a issue for more users09:02
jibelmvo, unrelated question. What's the easiest way to calculate dependencies for packages from another release ?  e.g on a server running oneiric I want to calculate dependencies for packages in Precise09:43
mvojibel: create a aptroot directory with aptroot/etc/apt/sources.list etc09:48
mvojibel: and then a cache using "cache=apt.Cache(rootdir="/path/to/aptroot")"09:49
mvojibel: and then cache.update(); cache.open(); do_stuff_with_cache(cache)"09:49
jibelmvo, ah great! thanks09:54
mvojibel: yw, let me know if I can help furth09:59
jibelmvo, that should be fine. for info I'm using it to trigger autopkgtest runs on dependency changes.10:04
jibelmvo, for example, if s-c had a dep8 control file, the tests would run if any of its dependency changed.10:04
jibelmvo, I'll start with the 1rst level dependencies but I think I'll make the level of dependencies configurable.10:05

botfathernever seen this15:57
hggdhbotfather: during the development you may find temporary inconsistencies on the archives -- some builds generate multiple packages, on different arches --. So you will have the archives not completely consistent.16:04
hggdhbotfather: safest option is to wait until the requirements are all resolved16:05
botfatherhggdh: yeah i understand now ;]16:05
