badfoxdholbach,  ping12:35
dholbachhi badfox12:35
badfoxhi dholbach12:36
dholbachI think there's no way to just pick them somewhere, but it helps if you check out the REPORT file of a few merges on merges.ubuntu.com and see how complicated the changes sound12:37
badfoxdholbach,  my problem is i am a basic starter of merging . i have done merging to one package . That is dnprogs . so now i want your help to help me on merges . i mean some easy merges i can do .12:37
dholbachfor example if it says "demoted X from recommends to suggests" then that's a simple change12:37
dholbachbut if there's a gazillions lines of changes it might be harder :)12:37
dholbachyes, I'd go through the list of merges on merges.u.c and check out a few12:38
badfoxok12:38
badfoxi have opened that already12:38
badfoxdholbach, https://merges.ubuntu.com/universe.html#outstanding i am here now12:38
dholbachcool12:38
badfoxso confuse  what to choose12:38
dholbachas I said: pick one, check out the changes in the report which were done in the past12:39
dholbachdoes anyone else have a secret recipe?12:40
badfoxok i will try12:40
dholbachok cool12:41
dholbachif you have questions, just ask in here12:41
dholbachI've got to go out for a bit now, but I'm sure somebody else can answer as well :)12:41
badfoxhttps://merges.ubuntu.com/a/activiz.net/REPORT this one seems , good for a basic starter like me12:41
dholbachgood luck! :)12:43
dholbachsee you in a bit12:43
badfoxdholbach,  is it fine ight12:43
badfoxright ?12:43
Laneyyou should be able to sync activiz.net12:43
Laneyfyi :-)12:43
badfoxmeans Laney  ?12:44
Laneyit means that the changes we have are no longer needed, so we can copy the version from debian12:44
Laneyin this case it looks like -2 incorporated them12:44
Laneybut of course you should confirm this12:45
Laney!sync12:45
ubottuHelpful information for filing a sync request can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SyncRequestProcess12:45
badfoxLaney,  now i am getting it to download12:47
badfoxso you mean we can directly get it right ?12:47
Laneyyou should verify this yourself12:47
Laneybut I think so.12:47
badfoxLaney,  whats the meaning of this message " It looks like this package is maintained in revision control:"12:50
=== ikonia is now known as ikonia_
=== ikonia_ is now known as ikonia
Laneybadfox: What it says: the maintainer keeps the package in a revision control system. If it refers to a debian.org URL then you can probably ignore it.13:43
Laney(because we usually only care about Debian packages that have been uploaded to the archive)13:43
badfoxLaney,  thanks :) i have stopped that13:43
Laneystopped?13:43
badfoxmaking start is really a big deal for me i think13:43
badfoxyeah doing that13:44
Laneyhow come?13:44
badfoxbecause i have got some errors and  i am unable to understand where the error13:44
badfoxyou want see the report ? la13:44
badfoxLaney,  ^^13:44
Laneyno it's ok, give me a second13:45
badfox:)13:45
badfoxhttp://pastebin.com/2eYjdYnm Laney13:46
Laneythat means you need to install the package containing Debian/Debhelper/Sequence/cli.pm13:49
Laneywhich is cli-common-dev13:49

a-zorinI'm having some issues with building a package on Launchpad. I would greatly appreciate any suggestions if anyone may have any. Full details of the problem are here: http://goo.gl/mrVdl16:14
maxba-zorin: The problem is in this line:16:17
maxbcc -Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions -Wl,-z,relro -lX11 -lXext -lXrender  xwinwrap.o   -o xwinwrap16:17
maxb-l options for libraries need to occur *after* the things that refer to symbols in them16:18
a-zorinSorry for my ignorance, but what file is this line in?16:19
a-zorinSorry, it was in the buildlog. Is there anyway to make it build correctly?16:30
psusiis there a way to search a g_tree for either an exact match, OR the next higher node?19:15
micahgsiretart: sorry, I haven't gotten to libav-extra yet, but hopefully this weekend (Ubuntu studio who is the main consumer has other issues they're working on ATM, so it's not the end of the world)19:31
siretartmicahg: ok, thanks for keeping me informed19:32
iulianpsusi: Are you talking about glib binary trees? If yes, you would probably have more luck in #ubuntu-desktop.20:58
iulian(no idea if the guys in there deal with these but it's worth asking)20:59
AmberJHow can I pass number of jobs to run simultaneously when using debuild? 'make' uses -j option to specify tthis. How can I pass -j value to debuild (to be used by make)?22:02
Zhenechcall debbuild -j?22:02
Zhenechit works for dpkg-buildpackage22:03
Laneyyes, you can't see it in the debuild manpage because it's a dpkg-buildpackage option (debuild passes unknown options down to dpkg-buildpackage)22:03
AmberJnoted. Thanks :)22:06
AmberJIf a file does not gets installed by upstream's 'make install', we add a line to debian/install... On my system built files goto a directory (in root of source directory) obj-x86_64-linux-gnu22:13
AmberJIs it safe to assume that on any amd64 install, build files will always goto obj-x86_64-linux-gnu/ ?22:14
AmberJ*on any amd64 install of Ubuntu distro22:14
AmberJIn fact, on any debian-based amd64 install..22:15
jtaylor_AmberJ_: no you can't assume that, but its probably sensible to assume that only one folder exists22:47
jtaylor_so you could use wildcards22:47
AmberJjtaylor_: Is obj-* what you mean?22:51
jtaylor_yes, you could also patch the buildsystem22:51
AmberJok thanks!22:54
