| bobweaver | Does anyone know where I can get examples of rules for make files I am real green to all this and am wondering about things like. Can I use bash in make files how are they structured ect I think that If I was to look at some examples that would help me.Thanks | 06:16 |
|---|---|---|
| SpamapS | bobweaver: make files for your upstream build, or for making a package? | 06:31 |
| SpamapS | bobweaver: there are tens of thousands of packages you can look at for debian/rules examples. :) | 06:31 |
| bobweaver | making a package the rules file under debian dir | 06:31 |
| bobweaver | oh wait I could just download the source code facepalm .... what about learning about rules and how makefiles need certian things like ending quotes. how to mirror dir's can I run loops in them ect | 06:34 |
| bobweaver | pardon my n00bie question just trying to learn :) | 06:35 |
| bobweaver | http://web.mit.edu/gnu/doc/html/make_3.html is looking good | 06:43 |
| SpamapS | bobweaver: a must read http://wiki.debian.org/IntroDebianPackaging | 06:46 |
| bobweaver | Thanks SpamapS I just thought that by asking here I would be able to learn from other's mistakes | 06:47 |
| SpamapS | bobweaver: the ideal rules file is *two* lines long and has no loops or weird conditions. :) | 06:47 |
| bobweaver | cool I will keep that in mind | 06:48 |
| SpamapS | bobweaver: well if you're going to ask questions, make them specific or it will be hard to commit to an answer. | 06:49 |
| bobweaver | SpamapS, Is there any gui based programs for making debian packages ? that you know off ? | 06:50 |
| bobweaver | everything that I have found is for heron or drapper | 06:51 |
| SpamapS | bobweaver: lots of GUI text editors. ;) | 07:03 |
| tumbleweed | \o/ beer festival today | 07:17 |
| bobweaver | I did it it worked I can not believe it my 1st make file http://paste.ubuntu.com/929107/ \o/ It worked !!!!!!! I am so flipin happy right now. To think that I started with nothing and now I have my own program YES ! | 08:08 |
| bobweaver | OH.... It's on now every tar ball I see with no debian package is going to get one now. What a great feeling YES | 08:14 |

| Zhenech | Adri2000, it's a new upstream bugfix release, dholbach said yesterday it would be fine | 11:37 |

| Zhenech | Laney, what? | 11:40 |
| Laney | that doesn't sound like a bug fix | 11:40 |

| jtaylor | dupondje: comment on bug 979986, the autoreconf call in debian rules was wrong and did nothing, so its probably not needed anymore, I still fixed it, should do not harm | 11:58 |

| jtaylor | also the profile diff is in debian, though I forgot that for the upload ^^ | 12:06 |
| Adri2000 | Laney: are you handling the pokerth sync sponsorship as well or may I do it? | 12:11 |

| Adri2000 | ok | 12:18 |
| dupondje | jtaylor: must have missed the profile diff indeed :( | 12:31 |
| jtaylor | a meld wrapper that does wrap-and-sort is useful for that :) | 12:32 |
| dupondje | you uploaded the new version now ? :) | 12:33 |
| jtaylor | dupondje: I use those two scripts for binary and source packages: http://paste.ubuntu.com/929406/ | 12:33 |
| jtaylor | yes | 12:33 |
| dupondje | saving that ;) thx | 12:34 |
| dupondje | the autoreconf call was just taken from previous versions btw .. | 12:39 |
| dupondje | and ubu5 was missing because the MoM seems out of date again | 12:40 |

| dupondje | hehe thx | 12:45 |
| dupondje | I guess it wants to get poked sometimes :) | 12:45 |
| jtaylor | is there a sru channel? | 13:13 |
| cjwatson | no | 13:38 |
| cjwatson | (afaik) | 13:38 |
| jtaylor | hm, anyone on the -sru team here? | 13:38 |
| cjwatson | well, I am, but really ought to be doing housework etc. | 13:48 |
| jtaylor | cjwatson: just a question about updating from rc to final post release | 13:54 |
| jtaylor | matplotlib 1.1.1 is currently rc and as its the last versin supporting py2.4 it is supposed to be "rock solid" | 13:54 |
| jtaylor | bugfix only compared to 1.1.0 i precise | 13:54 |
| jtaylor | but probably final 1.1.1 will not be released before precise is out | 13:55 |
| jtaylor | i was wondering if it is possible to update to the rc now and maybe updating to the final as a SRU | 13:55 |
| cjwatson | depends on the scale and importance of the changes; I don't normally consider version numbers in themselves to be important, personally | 13:59 |
| jtaylor | 672 files changed, 22588 insertions(+), 20016 deletions(-) between the RC and the branch head :/ | 14:13 |
| jtaylor | probably to much for an SRU | 14:13 |
| jtaylor | oh no wrong tag | 14:14 |
| jtaylor | 10 files changed, 449 insertions(+), 15 deletions(-) | 14:14 |
| jtaylor | I'll then update to the RC and observe what SRU worthy changes later | 14:16 |
| bobweaver | I have a real important question I am getting ready to make a huge .deb file while big for me. http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~josephjamesmills/zpanelcp/trunk/files I am at the part that I have to make the rules file. I had made a dialog installer script for zpanel. Is there anyway that I can call that installer script after the dependency have been installed ? I see all these .ex files and wondering if I can make my installer script i | 14:25 |
| bobweaver | nto one. then call to it in rules ? thank you so much for your time. | 14:25 |
| bobweaver | the installer scrip is wrote in bash | 14:26 |
| bobweaver | installerscript = http://paste.ubuntu.com/929556/ thanks again | 14:27 |
| bobweaver | I know that I would have to mod it some but is there a way ? | 14:28 |
| bobweaver | I used dh_make -e <email> -c gpl3 -f my.tar.gz to make what I have now | 14:33 |
| cjwatson | postinst scripts are run after dependencies are installed and your package is unpacked | 14:36 |
| cjwatson | however, if it's interacting with the user, it should use debconf, not your own dialog code | 14:36 |
| cjwatson | (that should give you some keywords to google for ...) | 14:37 |
| bobweaver | Thanks cjwatson | 14:38 |
| cjwatson | call to it in rules> it's important to understand that debian/rules is run at build time, while you're looking for something to run when the package is installed - those probably won't even be on the same computer, so it's not a matter of calling something from rules | 14:38 |
| cjwatson | (maybe that was just sloppy language, but I often find it saves people time if they get a good mental model of what's going on right from the start) | 14:39 |
| bobweaver | +1million | 14:41 |
| bobweaver | I want to release good code that is the goal if it is not soild I will not release. you can see by how I put comments in and also how I indent but I am a n00b 100% at this I made my first to packages last night they can be found here http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~josephjamesmills/ubforums-2-ubwiki/ubforums-2-ubwiki/files .

| ockham | for building packages for future distribution versions, there's pbuilder, cowbuilder et al. but what's the best way to test packages, say, for Precise, if I don't want to give it a partition of its own? some chroot magic? is there any documentation on this? | 21:43 |
| jtaylor | VM's are an option | 21:44 |
| jtaylor | for many partitions use lvm | 21:46 |
| cjwatson | or schroot if it doesn't need much in the way of desktop infrastructure | 21:47 |
| ockham | that's the thing about chroots, right? if i want to test desktop applications, that'd be rather difficult with them | 21:48 |
| cjwatson | if you use mk-sbuild to create the chroots, then you can schroot into them and you'll get a throwaway overlay filesystem, so you can install stuff, test it, and then it all magically vanishes when you stop using it | 21:48 |
| cjwatson | yes, VMs might be more practical in that case | 21:48 |
| ockham | i was hoping for something as comprehensive as the stuff on the ubuntu wiki for pbuilder... | 21:48 |
| ockham | documentation-wise | 21:48 |
| ockham | any pointers to some blog article or anything covering this? let's say for the VM way... | 21:55 |
| SpamapS | ScottK: thanks! :) | 22:05 |
| SpamapS | Laney: and just to respond, it wasn't that I needed another FFE, just that I needed a release team member to ack the NEW's | 22:05 |
