alo21hi..10:45
alo21when I am upgrading a package, should I put "quantal" as release?10:46
alo21yofel: could help me for a while?10:50
tumbleweedalo21: the release in the changelog is the release you are uploading to10:52
tumbleweedwhich is almost always going to be the development release, currently: quantal10:52
alo21tumbleweed: for example I am trying to fix this (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gajim/+bug/1044292)10:52
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1044292 in gajim (Ubuntu) "[new-upstream]Gajim 0.15.1" [Undecided,New]10:52
alo21tumbleweed: Is a good idea to put 'quantal'?10:53
tumbleweedyes10:54
alo21tumbleweed: and as I learnd I should write 'new upstream' as a comment. Right?10:54
alo21new upstream release*10:55
tumbleweedyes, and then mention all teh packaging changes you had to make (if there are any)10:55
alo21tumbleweed: I have just applied the debdiff to the new version10:56
alo21tumbleweed: Should I list it?10:56
tumbleweedno, that's not a change10:57
tumbleweeddoes this new release have new features? or only bugfixes?10:57
alo21tumbleweed: how I know it?10:58
alo21tumbleweed: I did not introduce any other changes, a part joining the debdiff11:01
tumbleweedalo21: read the diff? look at the upstream commit history?11:03
tumbleweedfrom the changelog in the bug, the only potential issue looks like farsight -> farstream (I don't know enough about them to know offhand how invasive that is)11:04
alo21Nafallo:12:15
alo21Nafallo: hi.. I am fixing this bug (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gajim/+bug/1044292)12:15
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1044292 in gajim (Ubuntu) "[new-upstream]Gajim 0.15.1" [Undecided,New]12:15
alo21and I create the package. Where should I upload it?12:15
Nafalloalo21: sorry. I haven't touched the package for years, and I probably haven't got upload rights anymore.12:18
Nafallo-EPERSON12:18
mitya57alo21: I think you should contact the current maintainer (check https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gajim for his name)12:19
alo21Nafallo: ok.. thanks12:19
Nafalloactually, looking at that page, we're using the debian package these days12:21
Nafalloalo21: don't touch it. the only thing necessary is getting it synced from debian :-)12:21
Nafallowhat's the pre-release freeze currently in effect about?12:22
alo21Nafallo: I downloaded the source from the website (http://gajim.org/downloads.php?lang=en#tarball). Isn't right?12:22
Nafalloalo21: no12:22
Nafalloalo21: it's a sync from Debian these days. not an ubuntu package at all.12:23
alo21Nafallo: ok12:23
Nafallowe're in beta1 freeze?12:24
Laneyyesyes12:25
LaneyDOUBLE YES12:25
Nafallo:-)12:26
Nafalloso yeah, get it synced. it's a bugfix release :-)12:27
Nafallogajim (0.15-1.1) unstable; urgency=high12:27
Nafallo  * Non-maintainer upload by the Security Team.12:27
Nafallo  * Fix CVE-2012-2093: insecure use of temporary files when convering LaTeX12:27
Nafallo    IM messages to png images. Closes: #66871012:27
ubottusrc/common/latex.py in Gajim 0.15 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on a temporary latex file, related to the get_tmpfile_name function. (http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2012-2093)12:27
Nafallo -- Luk Claes <email address hidden>  Sat, 16 Jun 2012 18:22:00 +020012:27
Nafalloeven better. security release.12:27
Nafalloshould probably get synced to precise-security as well12:28
alo21Nafallo: So... reguarding ubuntu 12.10, I was able to upgrade package until July 5th. Right?12:30

dholbachlfaraone_, lfaraone__: do you know which version of the sugar source packages in Ubuntu should be current right now?13:42
dholbachit seems like there's a few merge proposals for older versions of it and I'm not quite sure if they should have been replaced or anything13:42
ScottKdholbach: Sugar is pretty unmaintained in Debian and Ubuntu ATM.  It's a mess.14:05
dholbachok14:05
dholbachit just wasn't clear to me what to do with the packages that are in Ubuntu but not in Debian14:05
dholbachit's hard to figure out if they're needed somewhere14:06
LaneyI mailed him about the packageset the other day and he indicated that the maintenance effort (at least in the distro) is no more14:07
ScottKI'd remove anything in Ubuntu that's not in Debian since no one in Ubuntu is looking after them.14:07
alo21can someone follow me step by step via this long trip?14:11
jbichadholbach: I agree with ScottK, we should remove the old Sugar packages that were remove in Debian14:23
dholbachagrandi's fixes in http://reqorts.qa.ubuntu.com/reports/sponsoring/ made me aware of it14:24
jbichahttp://bugs.debian.org/67454714:26
ubottuDebian bug 674547 in ftp.debian.org "RM: sugar-base-0.86 -- ROM; obsolete Sugar version" [Normal,Open]14:26
=== al-maisan is now known as almaisan-away
dholbachthere seem to be some 0.84 bits in the archive as well14:33
DktrKranzdholbach: ScottK: I had some conversations with Jonas, here are some useful bits: http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/debian-olpc-devel/2011-October/003723.html http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/debian-olpc-devel/2012-May/003943.html14:34
DktrKranzalso, that should clarify other versioned packages shouldn't be versioned at all14:35
dholbachgreat14:35
tumbleweedthe ubuntu-only sugar bits do look fairly neglected http://qa.ubuntuwire.org/neglected/ (newest one was touched 2 years ago)14:36
DktrKranzthat reminds me, I should ask for potential 0.88 removal14:36
