[03:15] <allquixotic> Hi; I'm having an issue with the Rhythmbox external plugin headers in /usr/include/rhythmbox for Precise and Q. Create a C program that does: #include <rhythmdb/rhythmdb.h> and compile with CFLAGS="$(pkg-config --cflags rhythmbox)" . DOA. Can't find a header that it depends on, metadata/rb-ext-db-key.h. It's shipped in the .orig.tar.gz sources and the patchset doesn't rm the missing header and I can't see anything obvious in
[03:15] <allquixotic> the debian packaging files that would cause it to be excluded. Ideas?
[03:15] <allquixotic> It's pretty much a blocker for any native (non-Python) third party Rhythmbox plugins that depend on rb-shell.h (almost all plugins with a GUI will depend on that) or rhythmdb, since shell depends on rhythmdb which depends on the missing header.
[03:19] <allquixotic> Also, if I compile our orig.tar.gz sources from the Precise repo download at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rhythmbox/ then it successfully ships the file to /usr/include. The RB packaging scripts use .install files to specify files shipped in certain base directories to get shipped in specific packages; /usr/include is specified as going in rhythmbox-dev, which I have installed. It's just this one header missing; all
[03:19] <allquixotic> the others are present.
[03:39] <allquixotic> Oops, ignore that. My mucking around caused it to build. It's actually an upstream bug (referring to my previous monologue). Working with upstream Rhythmbox developer
[04:50] <roshan> hello
[04:50] <roshan> I have a question about ubuntu minimal iso
[04:50] <roshan> Today, I downloaded the Ubuntu 12.004 minimal iso, and mounted using virtualbox.
[04:51] <roshan> When I tried to install it, it was kind-of downloading some files.
[04:51] <roshan> I use gprs connection using bluetooth to connect to net. So, if i plan to install that, how will i be able to connect to internet ?
[04:55] <SpamapS> roshan: I've never insttalled on any such connection, but.. perhaps you should just download the full ISO? Much simpler.
[04:56] <roshan> Actually, I was planning to customize my own ubuntu startig from the minimal cd
[04:56] <roshan> Or, do u suggest UCK to remaster Ubuntu
[04:57] <SpamapS> roshan: ah, I am not the person to ask how to make custom install inmages
[04:58] <roshan> kei...
[04:58] <roshan> I asked in general o this channel
[05:04] <roshan> Hello
[05:19]  * infinity blinks at how spectacularly a perl FTBFS on i386 breaks the rest of the world.
[05:19]  * infinity goes about fixing this...
[06:15] <Kalidarn> infinity: lol there's a wikipedia article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FTBFS
[06:15] <Kalidarn> "It may also be considered vernacular language because its use tends to be specific to the Debian and Ubuntu Linux distributions."
[06:16] <Kalidarn> and the funniest thing is the example was for libsql-statement-perl a perl module
[06:45] <infinity> With packages like "haskell-reactive-banana", I'm starting to see the appeal...
[08:26] <iulian> Heh.
[09:53] <FirePowi> Hi
[12:42] <roshan> Hello
[12:42] <roshan> I wish to compile a linux kernel for my Ubuntu 12.04
[12:43] <roshan> When compiling, I wish to use an alternate config file, whih i have kept in the Desktop.
[12:43] <roshan> How to use that ?
[12:43] <roshan> I mean how o use this new config file in desktop?
[16:19] <vibhav> How do I configure pbuilder to take packages from ubuntu mirrors in debian?
[16:21] <jtaylor> why would you want to do that?
[16:23] <vibhav> jtaylor: I own a debian VPS, I would like to configure it to build ubuntu packages
[16:23] <vibhav> and I want it to use packages from ubuntu
[16:23] <jtaylor> adding ubuntu sources to debian will more likely just break it
[16:24] <jtaylor> or do you want an ubuntu chroot in debian?
[16:24] <vibhav> yeah
[16:24] <jtaylor> add the ubuntu keyring to DEBOOTSTRAPOPTS and set MIRRORSIRE and COMPONENTS
[16:26] <vibhav> How do i do that?
[16:26] <jtaylor> via the commandline or .pbuilderrc
[16:26] <jtaylor> pbuilder-dist should do everything out of the box
[16:31] <tumbleweed> ^ pbuilder-dist knows what to do
[16:51] <vibhav> I still did not get it
[16:54] <vibhav> pbuilder-quantal
[16:55] <vibhav> -bash: pbuilder-quatal: command not found
[16:59] <jtaylor> pbuilder-dist quantal
[16:59] <jtaylor> read the manpage
[16:59] <vibhav> Oh wait
[16:59] <vibhav> got it
[17:00] <vibhav> pbuilder-dist quantal create
[17:00] <vibhav> thanks jtaylor
[17:34] <tumbleweed> vibhav: I do prefer sbuild, though
[17:59] <jbicha> +1 for sbuild
[18:11] <roshan> Hello, I would like to remaster Ubuntu. For taht is it possible to modify the command prompt ubuntu@ubuntu to user@roshan-ubuntu
[19:26] <penguin42> wth is going on with apt on my system - libqwt-dev is always claimed to be upgradable, it installs it, and then still claims to be upgradable with exactly the same package version
[19:31] <jtaylor> yes thats a strange bug
[19:31] <jtaylor> bug 997201
[19:36] <penguin42> jtaylor: Thanks
[19:47]  * penguin42 can't see anything obviously wrong with the package or the state of the system
[20:18] <dupondje> Given a GTK Application. Is it preferred to use cairo functions and gdk? Or are X functions also safe to use?
[20:18] <dupondje> With wayland in minds.
[21:24] <l3on> penguin42, which ubuntu release? oneiric ?
[21:42] <jtaylor> precise
[21:57] <l3on> it seems oneiric also affected. bug marked as duplicated of bug 921430
[21:58] <l3on> patches sent.
[22:02] <jtaylor> still looks like a bug in apt to me
[22:02] <jtaylor> but good work triaging it
[22:11] <jtaylor> oh its main aI can'T sponsor :(
[22:25] <penguin42> l3on: Thanks for the fix!
[22:49] <l3on> thanks jt in any case ... penguin, you're welcome...
