Logan_Does anyone here know why apport isn't sending crash reports to Launchpad anymore?00:35
Logan_It seems to be just submitting them to the whoopsie database.00:36
lifelessthats correct00:55
lifelesswhoopsie-daisy is much better at gathering and coordinating the crashes; actual bugs are filed for the crashes identified by daisy00:56
Logan_lifeless: And who is the reporter?/01:14
Logan_/who has access to the crash database?01:14

patrickcegI suggest setting Bug #990677 to Wishlist. Note someone else already provided a non-canned answer since it was a (complex) feature request.01:54

patrickcegIs there a response for someone filing bugs against obsoleted versions? Bug #992370 is filed against Ubuntu 8.04...02:23
ubot2Launchpad bug 992370 in ubuntu "can't watch videos and computer very slow" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/99237002:23
Resistancepatrickceg:  bugs against 8.04 are still valid for a little while longer03:18
Resistancealthough this i dont think is a bug03:19
Resistancepatrickceg:  that one about videos and computer being slow isnt exactly a bug, i'd mark that Invalid or Incomplete, but that's just me personally03:19
patrickceg<Resistance>: Where is the list of dates when bugs are out of date? I know 8.04 was EOL'd https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-announce/2011-April/000144.html03:29
Resistancepatrickceg:  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases03:30
Resistanceyou might want to note that server still is supported03:30
Resistancei'd post to the mailing list about that one, then03:30
Resistancebecause that'd be desktop03:30
Resistancebut even then03:30
Resistanceits not a bug at all03:31
Resistanceso it'd be "Invalid" anyways03:31
Resistancewhat they need is ubuntuforums.org or askubuntu.com03:31
Resistanceor #ubuntu03:31
Resistancenot a bug03:31
Resistancepatrickceg:  ^03:33
Resistancethis'd be "Invalid"'d if I had seen it first, just because its not a bug03:33
patrickcegThanks I'll keep that in mind. I'm signing off for tonight...03:34
lifelessLogan_: a developer will be03:50
Logan_Oh.03:51

njinhello, if I try to remove libtotem-plparser17, synaptic ask to remove brasero too. Is this an apt bug ? Is this a brasero bug ? or is it a libtotem-plparser17 bug?10:40
hggdhnjin: brasero depends on libtotem-plparser17. So yes, you try to remove it, brasero will also get removed.11:50
seb128njin, it's not a bug11:51
njinok thanks guys, seen just now.11:52
seb128why do you want to remove that lib anyway?11:53
seb128it's a playlist parser list11:53
njinI was trying to see if banshee can be a valid substitute for totem and rhythmbox, but seems to have limitations11:53

alo21where ~/.pbuilderrc is located?17:47
bcurtiswxalo21, in terminal type 'ls ~/.p*' without the '17:59
bcurtiswxdoes .pbuilderrc show?17:59
alo21bcurtiswx: http://paste.ubuntu.com/987564/.. is better if I read http://wiki.ubuntu-it.org/Programmazione/Pbuilder18:01
bcurtiswxalo21, .pbuilderrc doesn't exist you would need to create it18:01
bcurtiswxalo21, what are you trying to do?18:02
irc_willynuxHi, I've just translated the strings reported on bug #999177 , should I update the status to In Progress or Fix Commited?18:17
ubot2Launchpad bug 999177 in language-pack-gnome-it "keyboard layout not completly translated in italian" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/99917718:17
alo21bcurtiswx: set up pbuilder to test my patches18:22
bcurtiswxirc_willynux, I think strings are translated in the applications themselves not from the language packs..18:22
micahgdepends on the application18:23
bcurtiswxmicahg, i think in this case if it was using the language pack only parts of sentences would be in english not entire sentences, right?18:24
micahgidk, depends on the application :)18:24
irc_willynuxthe application is keyboard layout from system settings, I did the translation in launchpad... Is that the way to do it?18:25
bcurtiswxalo21, you need to create .pbuilderrc then if you want to change settings in there18:25
alo21bcurtiswx: thanks18:26
bcurtiswxalo21, yw18:26
bcurtiswxirc_willynux, i should know the answer to that but I do not, sorry18:27
irc_willynuxok, no problem :) I'll ask in ubuntu-translators channel maybe better18:33
alo21could someone tell me where usually confiduration files are stored?19:18
hggdhalo21: system config usually under /etc, user config usually under ~/ -- ~/.config, ~/.local, etc, depending on the application19:26
alo21hggdh: amule19:27
hggdhalo21: sorry I do not use amule19:27
alo21hggdh: thakns anyway :)19:27
hggdhalo21: 'man amule' may help19:28
hggdhalo21: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/precise/en/man1/amule.1.html points to ~/.aMule19:30
alo21hggdh: thanks again19:31
alo21How can I write patch.... directly into the source=19:47
alo21?19:47
wyldealo21: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/HowToFix19:51
alo21could someone tell me how to make a patch?19:55
hggdhalo21: you write the patch, and then diff from an unchanged source. Or use bzr, or git19:58
hggdheasier to follow wylde's advice19:58
alo21hggdh: write it with gedit?19:59
wyldealo21: in whatever IDE or editor you like.19:59
alo21wylde: so I should open the source, change to fix the bug19:59
alo21try it19:59
alo21?19:59
alo21right?19:59
alo21wylde: sorry20:00
wyldealo21: the easiest way I know is to use bzr to branch the code, edit and create a diff20:00
alo21wylde: wait... I would to test it before commit20:01
alo21wylde: Once I found where the bug is...20:01
wyldealo21: yes, all the required steps are outlined on the link I posted20:01
alo21wylde: sorry I did not receive it, because my connection goes down20:02
wyldealo21: I personally have only ever patched Documentaion bugs. But the process is similar.20:02
wyldehttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/HowToFix20:02
alo21wylde: I have read it yet... but i did not understand it a lot20:03
wyldealthough... I can get away with a simple diff for the doc bugs. Not sure if that's sufficient for coding bugs.20:03
alo21wylde: patch -p1 < ../bugfix.patch ... how can I create a patch without uploading it on LP?20:03
hggdhLP has nothing to do with writing a patch20:05
wyldealo21: that's all I have to offer, like I said. I've only patched documentation bugs. It's likely a lot simpler that whgat you're asking. I've not yet attempted to patch those types of bugs.20:05
alo21wylde: ok20:05
hggdh1. bzr branch20:05
alo21wylde: thanks20:05
hggdh2. apply all patches in ./debian/patches (if the package is using quilt, very easy)20:06
hggdh3. write your patch20:06
hggdh4. save the diff somewhere else (again, quilt would help)20:06
alo21hggdh: ok... thank you so much20:07
=== Ursinha_ is now known as Ursinha
alo21ok... I create the patch, merge it with the code, but now I would like to test it20:13
hggdhyou do not _merge_ it with the code, the patch is applied during package build time20:16
hggdhalo21: which package is it?20:16
alo21hggdh: amule20:16

hggdhinteresting. amule in quantal is 2.3.1-7, and on lp:ubuntu/amule is 2.2.5-1.1ubuntu120:37
hggdhalo21: so the first thing to do is verify if this (whatever you are trying to fix) is fixed on quantal20:38
alo21hggdh: It seems that the bug is not fixed on quantal20:39
hggdhalo21:  since the quantal source in LP is out-of-date, it is better for you to check on #ubuntu-motu how to proceed. BUT20:40
hggdhif it is not fixed on quantal, the first patch has to be there20:40
hggdhTHEN you can request a SRU for precise20:40
hggdh(and sorry for the delay, had a phone call)20:40
alo21hggdh: do not worry20:41
alo21:)20:41
hggdhheh. I am not worried, I am just trying to make your life easier...20:42
alo21hggdh: i run this command: pbuilder-dist <release> build ../<package>_<version>.dsc21:24
alo21I do not receve any errors... but I cannot find my package21:24
hggdhalo21: did you look at ~/pbuilder?21:26
alo21_hggdh: here I am21:27
alo21_What did you say a moment ago?21:28
alo21_hggdh: inside my ~/pbuilder folder, I have two files21:29
alo21_1) precise_result 2) precise-base.tgz21:29
alo21_I have to go... If you can, could you eamil me, please?21:33
alo21_you find my adress at LP as alo2121:33
hggdhthat's... different21:33
wyldeo.O21:48
EvilResistancehggdh:  and now you know why i work with the source packages and not the bzr branches ;P22:12
EvilResistance(the bzr branches arent always up-to-date with the source package, in some cases)22:12
hggdhEvilResistance: yes, this can happen... not good, though, it would be better if consistency were to be maintained23:42
