ScottKIt would be useful if someone would look and see what we need to do to kill python-wxgtk2.6 in quantal.  It's already gone in Debian.16:11
tumbleweedI seem to recall you pointing at wx related issues in precise too16:11
ScottKI may have.16:12
ScottKIt's one of those things I think should be done, but I've not got time to look into myself.16:13
* tumbleweed has bug 948944 open in my browser, probably for a while :)16:14
ubottuLaunchpad bug 948944 in wxwidgets2.8 (Ubuntu) "after upgrade from oneiric python applications may use the wrong version of wxpython and fail as a result" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/94894416:14
* tumbleweed may put some time into them this evening. But first, going out for dinner and beer!16:16
ScottKbeer sounds like an appropriate preparation for working on wx stuff.16:19
jtaylornice I broke my wx installation by installing 2.616:22
tumbleweedoO) maybe jtaylor can fix it before I get back )16:22
jtaylorI don't even know how to fix my own installation16:23
jtaylorI reinstalled everything and purged 2.6 :/16:23
jtaylorstill broken16:23
tumbleweednice16:23
jtaylor /usr/lib//python2.7/dist-packages/wx.pth does not get reinstalled for some reason16:28
jtaylorhurray reinstalling python-wxversion fixed it16:31
tumbleweedthe wxwidgets2.6 removal affects beauties like this: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/encadre-image19:48
tumbleweedsame upstream version since feisty19:48
jtaylorneat19:48
* tumbleweed looks to see if it works with 2.719:49
tumbleweederr 819:49
jtaylorI actually wanted a newer version of wxformbuilder recently, another one of those ubuntu only never updated one19:50
jtaylorI looked into it and it embeds a library not available ubuntu (ticpp)19:50
jtaylorI don't really fell like properly maintaining both full scale in debian to satisfy my short term need for it19:51
tumbleweedthat's one of the reasons I created http://ubuntu-dev.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/neglected-packages.cgi We should encaurage people to look at it... (and host it on ubuntuwire, so it's faster)19:52
jtaylorbut others might profit from an updated version not up to debian standards but equal to what is already there19:52
jtaylorcan I upload it including the embedded library to ubuntu?19:52
* tumbleweed supposes you could. but IANAAA19:53
Laneyyou shouldn't have looked19:54
Laneynow it is on your conscience :P19:54
tumbleweed:)19:54
Laneyseriously though, it is important to think about whether dumping something you intend at the outset not to care for is a good idea19:58
jtayloryes but we already have something outdated in the archive, the alternative is to remove it or leave it rotting20:00
jtaylorin this case the package is still usable though so rotting may be ok20:00
tumbleweedreintroduction in Debian, by someone who cares about it, is preferable to rotting20:00
tumbleweedassuming the rot is already well set-in20:00
jtaylorit was never in debian20:01
tumbleweedno reason it couldn't be, in its next life :)20:01
jtaylornot by me, and its not exactly an easy target for a newcomer20:03
jtayloryou need to know a bunch of unusual stuff for proper maintenance20:03
jtaylore.g. lua, premake20:04
jtaylorthough updating the ubuntu package as is is a breeze, just get-orig-source and build :)20:04
jtayloreasier than trying to install from upstreams mess of a distribution20:05
tumbleweedI do worry that the rotting packages cause an unecessary drain on MOTU20:05
tumbleweedbut yeah, the bar for an existing ubuntu-only package is pretty low20:05
dupondjetumbleweed: maby add popularity next to the list of neglected packages20:17
dupondjeguess there are ton of packages nobody uses.20:17
tumbleweedyeah, that's a useful column20:18
jtaylorthat page doesn't load for me :(20:18
tumbleweedgive it a few years20:19
dupondjejtaylor: just wait a bit ... :)20:19
tumbleweedlet's see if I can get it working on syklone before it loads for you...20:19
jtaylorbeen waiting 20 minutes already20:20
jtaylorthough I had a disconnect in between20:20
tumbleweedwhy on earth did I make this a CGI?20:20
jtaylornow it loaded20:21
jtaylorquite a log :O20:21
jtaylorlot20:21
tumbleweedLaney: btw, finally got around to doing the report that was the cause for my ubuntu_upload_history involvement: http://people.ubuntuwire.org/~stefanor/debian-ubuntu-developers/20:22
Laneyheh20:23
tumbleweedI seem to remember taking a workitem for that last UDS20:23
Laneywhat for?20:23
tumbleweedcan't remember. Presumabyl debian healthcheck20:24
ajmitchtumbleweed: anything you need changed on ubuntuwire to get some of that stuff on there? :)20:25
tumbleweedajmitch: laney pointed out last night that debian's UDD hasn't been importing *sources tables. Time for us to do more than just load dumps? :)20:25
tumbleweed(I'm not particularly serious there, but it probably does affect some reports)20:25
Laneyapparently it is getting a new machine20:26
tumbleweedyeah, I think we kicked off the replace-ancient-machines movement20:26
ajmitchtumbleweed: what'd be required on our side for that?20:26
tumbleweedLaney: do we know the timeframe for the new UDD machine?20:27
* tumbleweed looks for bits from zack20:27
Laneyno20:27
Laneyask zobel in #-qa20:27
Laneyi think it is pretty imminent though20:28
* tumbleweed does that20:28
ajmitchtumbleweed: is a UDS session needed about any of this, or maybe rolled into another session?20:30
ajmitchor JFDI20:30
tumbleweedajmitch: seriously. It's only a short-time issue (we hope) so I think we just sit it out20:30
ajmitchok20:31
tumbleweeddupondje: don't you feel like merging xaralx?20:32
tumbleweedtest-built the version in sid, FTBFS20:32
dupondjehoh20:39
dupondjeI tought I checked that for oneiric20:39
tumbleweedwe do have a new gcc...20:40
dupondjehmz, current debian version is ftbfs ?20:42
dupondjedue to ?20:42
tumbleweeddupondje: http://people.ubuntu.com/~stefanor/tmp/xaralx_0.7r1785-5_amd64.build20:43
* dupondje should start working for Canonical :)20:48
Laneyif you're referring to that URL, all Ubuntu members get that20:49
dupondjeah no :)20:49
dupondjei'm still not ubuntu member btw :P20:50
dupondjetumbleweed: http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=52725 seems related20:53
ubottugcc.gnu.org bug 52725 in c++ "error: capture of non-variable (in regards to a variable)" [Normal,Unconfirmed: ]20:53
tumbleweedwe could just remove the package. Debian removed it from testing years ago :)20:56
dupondjelet me check, shouldn't be to hard to fix :)20:59
dupondjebleh, pbuilder-dist doesn't know quantal20:59
dupondje;)20:59
tumbleweedit should21:00
tumbleweedwhat release are you on?21:00
