[01:22] <JontheEchidna> YokoZar: mind if I upload this patch for wine1.4? http://paste.ubuntu.com/906525/
[01:41] <YokoZar> JontheEchidna: go for it
[01:42] <JontheEchidna> k, didn't know if you wanted to wait for some more changes to go with it or anything :)
[01:45] <YokoZar> JontheEchidna: well I'm about to put wine1.5 in ppa but I'll just merge that change in
[01:46] <JontheEchidna> the transitional package is still around so it's not too much of a hurry. It'd be nice to be able to get rid of it though
[02:30] <vibhavp> Should I request a sync for https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/oss4/+bug/858181 or prepare a debdiff?
[02:31] <vibhavp> Oh wait its fixed in precise
[02:31] <vibhavp> How do I then request a backport of it to oneiric?
[02:38] <micahg> vibhavp: that needs an SRU, not a backport
[02:41] <vibhavp> May sound noobish, but whats an SRU?
[02:42] <micahg> !sru | vibhavp
[02:42] <vibhavp> thanks micahg
[02:50] <vibhavp> from where I do I get a bug supervisor to Nominate?
[02:51] <micahg> I can do that
[02:53] <micahg> vibhavp: done
[02:58] <vibhavp> micahg: NOw I need to prepare a debdiff and attach it to the report, right?
[02:58] <micahg> vibhavp: yep, then subscribe ubuntu-sponsors
[04:36] <vibhavp> micahg: You there?
[04:36] <micahg> vibhavp: yeah
[04:37] <vibhavp> micahg: Could you check my debdiif at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/oss4/+bug/858181 ?
[04:39] <micahg> vibhavp: target should be oneiric-proposed, version should be 4.2-build2004-1ubuntu2.1
[04:47] <kyoushuu> how do I know which packages can still be merged from Debian Testing?
[04:49] <micahg> kyoushuu: bug fixes are welcome, features are subject to feature freeze and require an exception
[04:50] <kyoushuu> Ah, so only bug fixes are allowed to be merged at this time? Like updated packages from Debian that have the same upstream source version?
[04:51] <micahg> kyoushuu: well, major build system changes require an exception as well
[04:51] <micahg> kyoushuu: new upstream releases with no new features that won't break the world are ok too
[04:52] <micahg> speaking on new upstream releases breaking the world, jtaylor, any news on hdf5?
[04:53] <kyoushuu> micahg: Ah, so major upstream releases, like zlib 1.2.3.4 to 1.2.6 are not allowed?
[04:53] <micahg> kyoushuu: zlib breaks certain things IIRC so we'll need to wait until Q
[04:55] <kyoushuu> micah: Ah ok
[04:55] <kyoushuu> Does the background colors in packages in https://merges.ubuntu.com/main.html mean anything?
[04:57] <micahg> kyoushuu: yes, priority and essentiality, you might be better served with the universe merges (more likely to be appropriate at this juncture)
[04:57] <micahg> err..maybe just priority
[05:12] <ScottK> micahg: I'd appreciate it if you would take a quick look at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qd/2.3.11.dfsg-2.1/+build/3369763/+files/buildlog_ubuntu-precise-i386.qd_2.3.11.dfsg-2.1_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz and explain to me how that can work in a local build on i386 and on other archs on the buildd's, but not i386 on the buildd?
[05:12] <ScottK> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/precise/+source/qd/2.3.11.dfsg-2.1
[05:13] <ScottK> Built just fine on a buildd in Debian too.
[05:16] <vibhavp> micahg: S\Could you check the debdiff again? Ive corrected it
[05:39] <micahg> ScottK: does it matter which buildd>
[05:39] <ScottK> I retried it and it failed twice. I didn't check if it was on the same buildd or not.
[05:40] <ScottK> It's a quick build.  I can try and see.
[05:41] <micahg> vibhavp: you need to target oneiric-proposed, not oneiric, if the fix actually works, then otherwise it looks fine at first glance
[05:42] <ScottK> Got roseapple again.
[05:42] <micahg> hmm, roseapple is one of the less flaky buildds in my experience
[05:42] <micahg> looks good this time :)
[05:43] <micahg> ScottK: uploaded :)
[05:44] <ScottK> Weird.
[05:44] <ScottK> Third time's the charm I guess.
[05:44] <ScottK> Thanks.
[05:44] <micahg> there were some buildd issues earlier
[05:45] <ScottK> OK.  I didn't know about that.
[05:58] <vibhavp> ah
[06:07] <vibhavp> micahg: Done
[06:59] <dholbach> good morning
[07:00] <vibhavp> hi dholbach
[07:00] <dholbach> hi vibhavp
[07:19] <vibhavp> dholbach: /window 2
[07:19] <vibhavp> oops :)
[07:19] <vibhavp> sorry dholbach
[09:16] <vibhavp> Is it sensible to work on Unity Bugs?
[09:26] <Laney> you can do, but you should join #ubuntu-unity and discuss with the developers there
[10:36] <vibhavp> Which is higher: libchewing 0.3.3-1 or libchewing3-dev  0.3.3 ?
[10:36] <vibhavp> Ah
[10:36] <vibhavp> Ignore that question
[10:37] <vibhavp> What is the difference betwwen libchewing3 and libchewing?
[11:12] <geser> libchewing is the source package name while libchewing3 is the binary package name
[14:13] <al-maisan> Is there any way to get or access the package version in the debian/rules file (bar grep'ing the debian/changelog) ?
[14:16] <geser> not that I know of, I've only seen the use of dpkg-parsechangelog (and some filtering of the output) in debian/rules
[14:22] <al-maisan> geser: thanks for the pointer, will take a look at dpkg-parsechangelog
[14:46] <ockham> hi, i'd like to sync http://packages.debian.org/experimental/ocropus (whose 0.3.x version has been removed from Precise recently due to incompatibility with tesseract 3)
[14:46] <ockham> however, i'm currently running oneiric, and i'm behind a somewhat sluggish internet connection, so my download of 12.04 Beta2 is going to take a while. anyone else volunteering to test that ocropus 0.4.4-1 from debian?
