[00:48] <freeflying> sorry
[12:30] <freeflying> anyone know how can I re-apply for the motu?
[12:34] <tumbleweed> freeflying: you expired fairly recently. Please mail the developer-membership-board, saying you'd like to re-apply
[12:34] <tumbleweed> err not re-apply, have your membership re-activated
[12:36] <freeflying> tumbleweed: so a email to developer-membership-board to re-activated works?
[12:37] <tumbleweed> sure, it expired fairly recently. I'm happy to re-activate it
[12:37] <freeflying> tumbleweed: btw, what is the mail address? can't find it from lists.ubuntu.com
[12:37] <freeflying> tumbleweed: thanks a lot
[12:39] <tumbleweed> developer-membership-board@lists.u.c
[12:47] <freeflying> tumbleweed: done, thanks for your help
[13:35] <bdrung> freeflying: you're welcome. :)
[13:35] <freeflying> bdrung: :)
[14:22] <dupondje> somebody here ever packaged mozilla stuff ? :)
[21:16] <oly_> hi, wondering if anyone is around who can help me get a package into ubuntu / help test that i packaged it correctly :)
[21:17] <oly_> I have created a package and put it on my own ppa, and installed and removed using this on a few machine, but not really sure what todo with it from here and would like to learn
[22:02] <nhandler> oly_: You might be interested in http://developer.ubuntu.com/packaging/html/packaging-new-software.html#submitting-for-inclusion (Note that Debian is currently frozen in preparation for wheezy)
[22:03] <oly_> yeah i saw that it was frozen, and it something i read said to ask in here and that you can get people to mentor or confirm the package was safe
[22:06] <oly_> thought it made sense to just try and get it in ubuntu for now then submit to debian when its not frozen, but perhaps i am wrong in that assumption
[22:06] <oly_> my goal was to aim for 12.10 release
[22:07] <nhandler> oly_: The page I mentioned included a link to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/NewPackages . This will help you get your package into the list of things needing to get reviewed/sponsored
[22:08] <oly_> cheers just taking a look,
[22:09] <micahg> oly_: we can always backport from 13.04 to 12.10 as well
[22:09] <oly_> Actually read that, thats why i ended up here as it says it needs to be reviewed by two people from motu :)
[22:11] <oly_> thats an option i guess, what i have done already are under these links, the bug is here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1031894 and the package here https://launchpad.net/~oly/+archive/ppa
[22:13] <micahg> debian 597899
[22:14] <oly_> hum, that sounds like they need it packaging
[22:18] <oly_> lol, as usual i dont get debians organisation thats a mailing list is there not some where i can submit the deb, or do i just attach it, they really need to adopt something more modern, perhaps thats just me i like shiny webpages :)
[22:21] <micahg> oly_: mentors.debian.net
[22:24] <oly_> that just presents me with a message basically saying dont bother because we are in feature freeze, perhaps i just submit it and see what happens
[22:25] <micahg> yes
[22:25] <micahg> there are DDs here that can sponsor as well
[22:29] <philsf> I'm trying to package a new version of an app, and although "make" works and compiles it, when I run dpkg-buildpackage I get the following arch error: i386:x86-64 architecture of input file '***' is incompatible with i386 output. Is there a way to tell dpkg-buildpackage not to make clean, so I can compile separatly?
[22:32] <oly_> cheers guys for the help, dputing the package the mentors now will see what happens from there :)
[23:05] <maxb> philsf: No. A packaging is supposed to be a complete build routine from start to finish; without that being true, it's impossible for any automatic build to take place, or for any other human to build the package without first acquiring outside knowledge.
[23:07] <ScottK> philsf: Pass dpkg-buildpackage the -nc option.
[23:07] <ScottK> Of course that just works for testing.
[23:07] <ScottK> Eventually you'll have to get it to work.
[23:07] <oly_> cool, package has appeared on debian mentors now :)
