LoT | i think this page has some inconsistencies... | 15:25 |

LoT | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Responses <-- that | 15:25 |
LoT | The file referred to for editing if these responses are edited on the wiki doesn't exist, so therefore not all responses can be edited or exist | 15:25 |
* LoT plans to update the ubuntu-qa-tools branch later, when his linux system is back on a network connection | 15:26 | |

bdmurray | LoT: fixing that wiki page thanks | 16:26 |
hjd | Anything special one should do with bugs belonging to packages since removed from Ubuntu? (I'm marking two duplicates and wonder whether I should mention that the package is removed in newer releases or something.) | 16:41 |
* Elbrus doesn't know for sure, but he would comment in the bug something mentioning the fact and would search for a status that would cause the bug to be archived if not worth a SRU | 16:43 | |
hjd | Bug 42775 fwiw. Based on one of the duplicates still present in lucid, so while I wouldn't bet on it, I suppose it might still get fixed... | 16:48 |
ubot2 | Launchpad bug 42775 in swscanner "swscanner tries to use kdesu, which is not installed" [Low,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/42775 | 16:48 |
hjd | What about bug reports requesting newer versions in packages which has been removed, like bug 325263? Should these simply be converted to needs-packaging bugs? | 16:58 |
ubot2 | Launchpad bug 325263 in kq "KQ package very out of date." [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/325263 | 16:58 |
micahg | hjd: patches welcome | 17:18 |
micahg | hjd: if the dev release is out of date, just tag upgrade-software-version, otherwise mark fix released and you can mention about backports if you like | 17:18 |
hjd | micahg: Well, that's what I'd normally do, though in the cases I've found it seems like the package was removed from the repository before it was upgraded... | 17:31 |
hjd | s/was/could be/ | 17:31 |
micahg | hjd: ok, then if it makes sense, it can be converted to a needs-packaging bug (i.e. upstream still alive and making releases), otherwise, it's invalid or won't fix | 17:33 |
hjd | ok, thanks. | 17:38 |
hjd | Hm, it seems at least in KQ's case it was removed because it contained unlicensed content (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=575739) I can leave a comment stating that, but I don't really know if I should touch the status. | 17:47 |
ubot2 | Debian bug 575739 in ftp.debian.org "RM: kq -- RoQA; contains undistributable content" [Normal,Open] | 17:47 |
micahg | hjd: yeah, if someone cares about it, they should try to get it back into Debian with the licenses issues addressed | 17:50 |
hjd | micahg: added a comment. Should I add "needs-packaging" tag as well? | 17:54 |
micahg | hjd: sure, it could be converted to that | 17:55 |
shakaran | what's the proper package for file a bug regarding to unity-newrelease-checker? unity? | 17:59 |
micahg | which release is that? that file doesn't seem to be in precise | 18:00 |
shakaran | I don't where I get this. But apparently I have this on my laptop: http://pastebin.com/kUQawLye | 18:04 |
shakaran | could be ubuntu-tweak or some app like that? | 18:05 |
micahg | shakaran: dpkg -S /etc/xdg/autostart/unity-newrelease-checker.desktop | 18:05 |
micahg | shakaran: ah, it says it's from the unity PPA, try #ubuntu-unity for help | 18:05 |
shakaran | checkbox-unity: /etc/xdg/autostart/unity-newrelease-checker.deskto | 18:06 |
shakaran | micahg: ok thanks, I will try there ;) | 18:06 |
micahg | shakaran: maybe not | 18:06 |
micahg | shakaran: apt-cache policy checkbox-unity will tell you where it comes from | 18:07 |
shakaran | pretty weird http://pastebin.com/LJqMU8cY | 18:07 |
micahg | awesome :) | 18:07 |
shakaran | scary | 18:08 |
micahg | anyways, someone in the other channel might know more | 18:08 |
shakaran | ok, I will try there | 18:09 |

shakaran | I think that I get a exception inception error with apport just now with nautilus, could somebody check this? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apport/+bug/626214 | 19:12 |
ubot2 | Ubuntu bug 626214 in apport "TypeError: add_info() takes exactly 2 arguments (1 given)" [Undecided,Confirmed] | 19:12 |
shakaran | micahg: I purge the checkbox-unity package and I seems solve the problem. The unity PPA is disabled, so I purge the PPA too (It seems that I add the PPA on lucid and it was disabled on 12.04, currently using now 12.10) | 19:15 |

gareth_ | I'm attempting to get a patch into libgphoto2 on precise. I've attached a patch to the bug report and have also uploaded it to LP. What next? I'm a litte confused by all the various documentation! | 20:17 |
gareth_ | LP: #981062 | 20:18 |
micahg | gareth_: well, ideally, you'll want to test build to know if it fixes the issue, then create a debdiff with the patch included as a proper patch in debian/patches/ if appropriate, #ubuntu-desktop can help | 20:22 |
gareth_ | micahg: I've built it on my machine and that has fixed the issue. Is that what you mean by 'test build' or is there more to it? | 20:23 |
micahg | gareth_: yeah, that's what I mean | 20:25 |
micahg | gareth_: so, if you ask in #ubuntu-desktop, maybe someone will just do the patch making for you or help you to create it | 20:25 |
micahg | gareth_: you've done the hard part already :) | 20:26 |
gareth_ | micahg: Good. So part one is done! I built it with pbuilder and installed the deb on my laptop and tested it. Can you confirm that I now need to build a debdiff and attach that to the bug? | 20:29 |
micahg | gareth_: yeah, with a proper debdiff you can throw it in the sponsorship queue | 20:30 |
gareth_ | micahg: Thanks - I'll give that a go then. | 20:30 |
