| MTecknology | So... when a security vulnerability is found... do I care about what's in backports? | 00:38 |

| mfisch | hey masters, there's a ftbfs that works fine for me in a pbuilder chroot | 03:53 |
| mfisch | libkqueue | 03:53 |
| mfisch | I will double check with an i386 pbuilder | 03:53 |
| mfisch | if that works can someone redo the build? | 03:53 |
| micahg | mfisch: seems to be builder specific | 03:54 |
| mfisch | this fits because the build failure is an odd hang, not a "real" error | 03:54 |
| micahg | *launchpad buildd | 03:54 |
| mfisch | micahg: what do you mean? | 03:54 |
| mfisch | works fine in i386 too | 03:55 |
| micahg | mfisch: seems to be a problem specific to the buildd env | 03:56 |
| mfisch | micahg: how can you tell that? | 03:56 |
| micahg | mfisch: common cause when stuff works locally and doesn't work on the buildds, I'd suggest uploading to a PPA to verify whether or not it's a buildd env specific issue | 03:57 |
| mfisch | micahg: oh, I thought you had other logfiles or something | 03:57 |
| mfisch | micahg: okay, I'll do a ppa | 03:57 |

| ajmitch | Laney: how goes the haskell transition? in other words, what can I pick at & sync? :) | 09:51 |
| Laney | anything which builds | 09:51 |
| Laney | i'm not doing any until this evening at the earliest | 09:51 |
| ajmitch | busy today? | 09:51 |
| Laney | somewhat | 09:51 |
| ajmitch | is there a nicely presented list of haskell packages that may be syncable, or were you just using the transition tracker & comparing versions with debian? | 09:56 |
| Laney | all packages should have a new version in debian | 09:57 |
| Laney | since sourceful uploads were required | 09:57 |
| ajmitch | first one I looked at was removed from sid, that doesn't help :) | 09:57 |
| Laney | i filed some removals already | 09:57 |
| Laney | still pending | 09:57 |
| ajmitch | so there's a standing FFe for new upstream versions as well, like haskell-yaml going from 0.4.1.1 to 0.5.2? | 09:58 |
| Laney | yeah | 09:58 |
| ajmitch | ok | 09:58 |
| ajmitch | haskell-data-object was the first one I looked at , I hate LP saying '0 new bugs' & misleading me :) | 09:59 |
| Rhonda | Do I need -e switch for syncpackage currently? | 09:59 |
| Rhonda | erm, not -e … -e was syncrequest … | 09:59 |
| ajmitch | Rhonda: looking to file an FFe? | 10:00 |
| tumbleweed | syncpackage has a -e, but only in non-native mode :) | 10:00 |
| tumbleweed | Rhonda: yeah, sounds like you want requestsync -e | 10:00 |
| Rhonda | -e means UPLOADER_EMAIL there, tumbleweed | 10:00 |
| ajmitch | how inconsistent :) | 10:00 |
| Rhonda | For beep it's just debconf translations added, so syncpackage is out of scope but requestsync -e is still needed, right? | 10:01 |
| tumbleweed | Rhonda: if there are no new features, just syncpackage | 10:01 |
| * Rhonda . o O ( will be my first upload to ubuntu main, yay :) ) | 10:01 | |
| tumbleweed | if you want an ffe, file a sync request with an FFE (requestsync -e) | 10:01 |
| tumbleweed | Rhonda: you have upload rights to packages in main? | 10:02 |
| Rhonda | PPU | 10:02 |
| Rhonda | for beep, irssi and … there was a third one :) | 10:02 |
| nigelb | irssi is in main? woah. | 10:02 |
| ajmitch | Rhonda: beep sounds like such a critical package... :) | 10:02 |
| Rhonda | ajmitch: for some architectures it is | 10:02 |
| ajmitch | nigelb: it should be in ubuntu-minimal, imho | 10:02 |
| tumbleweed | lol | 10:03 |
| Rhonda | Ah, logcheck | 10:03 |
| Rhonda | hmmmmmmmm | 10:03 |
| Rhonda | syncpackage: Error: Signer is not permitted to upload to the component 'main'. | 10:03 |
| Rhonda | why does it claim so … | 10:04 |
| Rhonda | I think there is some failed check involved? | 10:04 |
| Rhonda | Whom to nag about it? | 10:04 |
| ajmitch | tumbleweed should know :) | 10:04 |
| * Rhonda nibbles on tumbleweed | 10:04 | |
| tumbleweed | I'll look | 10:07 |
| ajmitch | ubuntu-upload-permission looks useful, but doesn't list anyone except core-dev as being able to upload beep | 10:07 |
| Laney | indeed rhonda has no PPU as far as launchpad is concerned | 10:07 |
| * Rhonda is offended by Laney's initial disbelieve :;) | 10:08 | |
| ajmitch | did the DMB approve some PPU rights for you? | 10:09 |
| ajmitch | https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/devel-permissions/2011-July/000253.html says yes :) | 10:10 |
| Rhonda | Yes, and they asked why I didn't sign up for coredev membership right ahead %-= | 10:10 |
| tumbleweed | that's a single vote, not a decision | 10:10 |
| ajmitch | tumbleweed: oh, was it? | 10:10 |
| * tumbleweed has a dig through meeting archives | 10:11 | |
| * ajmitch saw http://people.ubuntu.com/~maco.m/dmb_record_keeping.html as well whch implied it was approved | 10:11 | |
| ajmitch | so 18 july should be the meeting to look for | 10:11 |
| Rhonda | tumbleweed: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/devel-permissions/2011-July/000257.html is the vote | 10:11 |
| ajmitch | yeah, I was close | 10:12 |
| * Rhonda prodded cody to attend personally %-) | 10:12 | |
| Rhonda | We were sitting at mr. black in banja luka at that time ;) | 10:12 |
| ajmitch | debconf? | 10:12 |
| * Rhonda nods | 10:13 | |
| Rhonda | cody was like "oh, meeting is tonight?" | 10:13 |
| ajmitch | one year I'll try & get to that :) | 10:13 |
| tumbleweed | Laney: looks like you chaired the next meeting, and there was no minutes review | 10:15 |
| tumbleweed | stgraber: ^^^^ can you grant Rhonda the PPU rights she never got? | 10:16 |
| Laney | the horror | 10:20 |
| ajmitch | Laney: you've picked all the easy ones off the ghc transition list, haven't you? | 10:21 |
| Laney | i don't have that impression | 10:21 |
| ajmitch | I haven't had any build yet :) | 10:21 |
| Laney | i know that libzip is busted though | 10:21 |
| Laney | the ordering on that page sometimes lies | 10:21 |

| tumbleweed | glad to hear that | 10:23 |
| * tumbleweed -> lunch | 10:23 | |
| ajmitch | woo, found one that builds | 10:23 |
| Laney | i just build like 50-100 and sync all of those that worked :P | 10:24 |

| Laney | oh i'm not that automated | 10:25 |
| Laney | for i in haskell-{a,b,c,d,e,f}; do pull-debian-source $i unstable; done :( | 10:25 |
| ajmitch | Laney: you just grabbed the lot? | 10:25 |
| Laney | just get a couple of levels at a time | 10:26 |
| ajmitch | I'll get onto it then, will sync haskell-sendfile since it built :) | 10:26 |
| Laney | then i wrote a terrid script to sync all packages which have an _amd64.changes file | 10:26 |
| ajmitch | dholbach: I think the results on there are wrong, and counting syncs where it shouldn't :) | 10:26 |
| ajmitch | (just in the breakdown of uploaders) | 10:27 |
| ajmitch | since I'm sure I didn't sponsor 10+ things in the last month | 10:27 |
| dholbach | ajmitch, that might be the case - it was what I could get up in the shortest amount of time | 10:27 |
| ajmitch | ok | 10:27 |
| dholbach | still I'm happy to see us at 30 again | 10:28 |
| ajmitch | yeah it's a good improvement | 10:28 |
| dholbach | it'd be great to get some more done before beta 2 freeze | 10:28 |
| dholbach | that will make it easier to keep on top of incoming requests once we're rolling towards final freeze | 10:28 |
| * ajmitch wasn't sure what to do with a couple of largish merge proposals | 10:28 | |
| dholbach | yeah, they're tricky | 10:29 |
| ajmitch | where they look to be patching an awful lot of upstream stuff for inconsequential things, like https://code.launchpad.net/~geoubuntu/ubuntu/precise/tvtime/tvtime.fix-372822+947845+947850+951473+more/+merge/96877 | 10:29 |
| dholbach | if it's stuff which should go upstream first, I usually say that and reject it - as harsh as that might seem | 10:29 |
| ajmitch | I suspect that & gnomeradio (both MPs by the same person) should go upstream | 10:29 |
| dholbach | althought it looks like in the case of tvtime all of these patches but one are upstream already | 10:30 |
| ajmitch | just going from the origin in the patch headers? | 10:31 |
| dholbach | yep | 10:32 |
| ajmitch | some are marked as upstream but from the bug tracker, or upstream & refers to a LP attachment | 10:32 |
| dholbach | it might make sense to get it in and ask the guy to subscribe to the tvtime bugs to make sure they don't break stuff | 10:32 |
| dholbach | mh | 10:33 |
| dholbach | inactive upstream probably :/ | 10:33 |
| ajmitch | wouldn't surprise me, when you look at tvtime.sf.net :) | 10:33 |
| ajmitch | last upstream release in 2005 | 10:33 |
| dholbach | he did the most of the last uploads to ubuntu | 10:34 |
| ajmitch | right | 10:34 |
| dholbach | it might make sense to just get it in and ask the guy to take over upstream :-) | 10:34 |
| ajmitch | some of the patches referred to the in SF bug tracker date back to 2006, and have no comments | 10:35 |
| ajmitch | seems a bit dead | 10:35 |
| dholbach | :-( | 10:35 |
| ajmitch | ubuntu is almost doing well compared to that | 10:35 |
| dholbach | ha, think about what Ubuntu would be like if the last release had been in 2005 ;-) | 10:36 |
| ajmitch | heh | 10:37 |
| AlanBell | can someone help me get started with packaging one simple python script? | 10:52 |
| AlanBell | it is just an executeable script that adds quicklists to unity launcher, it does some dbus listening and has one dependency, plus a .desktop file that launches it on sesson startup | 10:54 |

| Laney | you look at the linked Debian bug and decide if it's not fixed in Ubuntu and if not then if it's worth updating our package to get the fix | 11:32 |

| tumbleweed | Laney, AlanBell: sorry, it was a long lunch. Sorted? | 13:48 |
| AlanBell | tumbleweed: hi | 13:49 |
| AlanBell | I want to know where to get started when packaging one python script that just runs | 13:49 |
| AlanBell | do I need to do some python setuptools stuff to wrap around it before it can be put in a .deb? | 13:49 |
| tumbleweed | is it a single .py file? | 13:51 |
| tumbleweed | if so, nothing special required, just dh_install it to /usr/bin and depend on python | 13:51 |
| AlanBell | it has one dependency, and a .desktop file to shove in /etc somewhere to start it on session start | 13:52 |
| tumbleweed | there's nothing python-specific for you to worry about then | 13:52 |
| AlanBell | ok, but I still don't know where to start :) | 13:53 |
| tumbleweed | can you point me at the source? | 13:53 |
| AlanBell | is there a tutorial or guide that I could look at, all the stuff I find seems to be for things that you download wtih a .tar.gz and compile | 13:53 |
| AlanBell | http://people.ubuntu.com/~alanbell/quicklists.py source | 13:54 |
| AlanBell | http://people.ubuntu.com/~alanbell/unity-window-quicklists.deb bad attempt at a .deb | 13:54 |
| AlanBell | my .deb has permissions errors and is just a finished .deb, not a source .deb so I don't think I can put it in a ppa | 13:55 |
| tumbleweed | you probably want that in a bzr repo or something (not that this matters for packaging) | 13:55 |
| AlanBell | yeah, I should put it in bzr | 13:56 |
| tumbleweed | I suggest writing a simple Makefile to install it, then the packaging is easy | 13:56 |
| tumbleweed | and I think a Makefile is easier to write than a setup.py | 13:57 |
| Laney | for one file? why not just use dh_install (modulo renaming)? | 13:57 |
| tumbleweed | or that | 13:58 |
| tumbleweed | actually, yes, that | 13:58 |
| AlanBell | ok, is there a guide? | 13:59 |
| arand | Laney: Modulo renaming? | 13:59 |
| tumbleweed | (I was thinking defensively, you don't want dh trying to do someting with a build system it thinks youhave), but that' isn't a danger here | 13:59 |
| arand | AlanBell: 'man dh_install' is one ref | 13:59 |
| AlanBell | arand: yeah, reading that, I don't quite get it though | 14:00 |
| tumbleweed | AlanBell: read one of the usual packaging guides (I like wiki.debian.org/IntroDebianPackaging ) | 14:01 |
| arand | echo "foobin usr/bin" > debian/foo.install | 14:01 |
| tumbleweed | and just be aware that you don't have a Makefile or anything like that, that you are just oging to install the bits you want, with dh_install | 14:01 |
| AlanBell | so do I run dh_install or put dh_install lines in some of the scripts in the DEBIAN directory? | 14:02 |
| arand | AlanBell: If you use dh7 it is run automatically via d/rules "dh $@" | 14:05 |
| AlanBell | using Precise so presumeably the latest stuff | 14:09 |
| AlanBell | so do I need to create a filestructure that mirrors where I want stuff to end up? or is that what the dh_install replaces in the source package? | 14:10 |
| tumbleweed | that's what dh_install will help you with | 14:10 |
| AlanBell | in the directory I made the binary package with I have DEBIAN etc usr | 14:10 |
| tumbleweed | however dh_install won't let you change file names, so it helps if the files already have the final name | 14:10 |
| tumbleweed | (e.g. no .py for stuff going into /usr/bin) | 14:11 |
| arand | (or you could do a simple override to rename it) | 14:11 |
| Laney | that is waht I mean by modulo renaming | 14:11 |
| Laney | if you have to rename then it's a bit more difficult | 14:11 |
| tumbleweed | Laney: you have anything to raise before the release meeting? I don't | 14:12 |
| AlanBell | ok, so I need the quicklists and unity-window-quicklists.desktop files in the top level with the DEBIAN directory | 14:12 |
| Laney | just tell them ghc is in hand | 14:12 |
| arand | Ah, I though this was some fancy option to dh :D | 14:12 |
| ajmitch | the ghc list is slowly getting shorter :) | 14:12 |
| tumbleweed | AlanBell: s/DEBIAN/debian/ | 14:12 |
| Laney | is there a freeze soon? | 14:12 |
| tumbleweed | Laney: not that far off | 14:12 |
| tumbleweed | FFe requests seem to have slowed down (or I'm not getting to my e-mail enough | 14:13 |
| AlanBell | tumbleweed: oh lowercase for source package and upper case for binary is it? | 14:13 |
| arand | AlanBell: It can be wherever in the source dir, just set the location accordingly in the install file. | 14:13 |
| tumbleweed | AlanBell: yes | 14:13 |
| arand | AlanBell: Do you have the source with a debian/ dir, including rules copyright etc already set up? | 14:14 |
| AlanBell | arand: well no, I am trying to figure out what goes in the debian directory | 14:15 |
| arand | dh_make can make you a template | 14:15 |
| Laney | use dh_make and remove all of the *.ex *.EX README.* from debian/ | 14:17 |
| Laney | then you need to make a debian/packagename.install file (see man dh_install) and edit the fields in debian/control | 14:17 |
| Laney | specifically to depend on python | 14:17 |
| arand | It can be just d/install without the name in this case, unless you want multiple binary packages | 14:18 |
| Laney | it can be a lot of things | 14:18 |
| Laney | but let's not present all of the options all of the time | 14:18 |
| AlanBell | I don't want multiple binary packages! this is hello world level stuff :) | 14:19 |
| AlanBell | ok, so I don't have dh_make and E: Unable to locate package dh_make | 14:19 |
| tumbleweed | it's called dh-make | 14:20 |
| arand | but the command is with _ | 14:20 |
| AlanBell | ah, so it is, thanks | 14:20 |
| AlanBell | ok, that worked. Now where do the dh_install lines go? | 14:27 |
| tumbleweed | AlanBell: dh will call dh_install for you | 14:28 |
| tumbleweed | so just create a debian/install / debian/packagename.install file to configure it | 14:28 |
| arand | The format is: "path/in/source/foo install/dir", e.g. "scripts/foo usr/bin" | 14:32 |
| AlanBell | this has possibly done something good, dpkg-buildpackage does a load of stuff now | 14:36 |
| tumbleweed | that's dh doing all the usual stuff for you | 14:37 |
| pabelanger | I have 2 merge requests up on launchpad (my first ones) should I be subscribed to ubuntu-sponsors to help move them along? | 14:54 |

| wookey | If I find a cross-build issue that is the same in Debian and Ubuntu, and there isn;t already an ubuntuN package version should I still file two bugs and patches and link them? | 17:39 |
| wookey | (the ubuntu patch only being differnt by dint of chanigng maintainer field and addingan ubuntuN to the version number | 17:39 |
| micahg | wookey: if the Debian fix will get in quickly, I'd just suggest filing there and syncing (asking for FFe if necessary) when fixed | 17:40 |
| micahg | wookey: unless it's on an image | 17:40 |
| wookey | OK, so the sync stuff can only happen after the debian package is uploaded - there is no 'pre-emptive' version. | 17:40 |
| wookey | the thin is you never know how long the debian upload will take... | 17:41 |
| micahg | wookey: well, there's no need for it unless the fix is needed immediately | 17:41 |
| micahg | or it's on an image and you want to insure it's fixed for precise | 17:41 |
| wookey | OK. I'll try filing a few in Debian and give it a week | 17:42 |

| jtaylor | ScottK: re numpy bug, it should probably be changed to gcc -print-multiarch, which is more commonly installed than dpkg-dev | 19:03 |
| micahg | jtaylor: dpkg-dev is in build-essential | 19:04 |
| micahg | as is gcc | 19:05 |
| jtaylor | yes but apparently the reported does nto have it installed | 19:05 |
| jtaylor | I should have wrapped the thing into a try except instead of just checking the returncode :/ | 19:05 |
| jtaylor | on the otherhand this issue would not have been found then | 19:05 |
| * micahg would think neither is a good solution for a runtime dep without an actual dependency although gcc is installed by default | 19:06 | |
| jtaylor | the whole solution is a hack :/ | 19:06 |
| micahg | jtaylor: right, but if you need either one, you need to declare a dependency on it | 19:06 |
| micahg | or at least a recommends if it's not a common code path | 19:07 |
| micahg | in that case, gcc is better as it's already installed | 19:07 |

| plipp1 | Hi guys, I tried branching/checking out foobillard to create a lokal package, but during package creation, I get: | 20:49 |
| plipp1 | Need to get 86.3 kB/21.6 MB of archives. After unpacking 81.3 MB will be used. | 20:49 |
| plipp1 | Writing extended state information... | 20:49 |

| plipp1 | 404 Not Found [IP: 91.189.92.180 80] | 20:49 |
| plipp1 | E: Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/g/glib2.0/libglib2.0-data_2.31.20-0ubuntu2_all.deb: 404 Not Found [IP: 91.189.92.180 80] | 20:49 |
| plipp1 | E: Unable to correct for unavailable packages | 20:49 |
| plipp1 | I see that libglib2.0 seems to be in lucid [but I have it installed on precise] | 20:51 |
| plipp1 | foobillards is in precise but not the required libs? | 20:52 |
| plipp1 | Or what exactly is going on? | 20:53 |
| plipp1 | sorry, 'foobillard' | 20:54 |
| ScottK | plipp1: libglib2.0-data exists, it's just there's a newer version. You need to run apt-get update | 20:54 |
| jtaylor | try updating | 20:54 |
| plipp1 | ScottK: apt-get upgrade rather. :) | 21:01 |
| plipp1 | yes, ubuntu2 rather than ubuntu3 was installed.. Let's see what happens | 21:01 |
| ScottK | No, apt-get update. What you posted indicates your package index is out of date. | 21:01 |
| ScottK | Then upgrade, sure, but first you need an updated package index | 21:02 |
| plipp1 | ScottK: I seem to not fully understand how that works. I was under the impression that if I've done an update and something wants to install a newer dependency, things would fall through | 21:05 |
| ScottK | The error you showed indicated your package index was out of date. | 21:06 |
| ScottK | So step one, apt-get update refreshes the index so it knows about the newer version. | 21:06 |
| ScottK | Then when you upgrade or when it gets pulled in as a depends, you should get the newer/correct one. | 21:06 |
| ScottK | libglib2.0-data | 2.31.20-0ubuntu3 | precise | all <-- is current. | 21:07 |
| plipp1 | ScottK: Hmm.. Okay. But still, when it comes to the error message, I thought I had 2.31.20-0ubuntu2 installed which is what it tried to fetch (I know it can't find that though, as the version that exists there is -ubuntu3). | 21:14 |
| ScottK | That error message means it was trying to fetch ubuntu2 and failed. | 21:15 |
| plipp1 | Yes, that's what I think it's saying too. I just thought that that's what I had installed already. Quite sure synaptic said that ubuntu2 was installed and was upgradable (to ubuntu3). Is that possible or does my memory certainly fail me? | 21:17 |
| plipp1 | oh crap, upgrade gets stuck at replacing 'bluez' | 21:41 |
