MaskilPDXnathwill, You still there?19:01
nibalizerMaskilPDX: i'm herer19:02
nibalizeri've been playing a lot with openvpn lately19:02
MaskilPDXYea19:04
MaskilPDXWhat I am looking for is a VPN client on Ubuntu19:04
MaskilPDXthe network manager was freaking out, using Wicd19:04
MaskilPDXAny suggestions19:04
tgm4883freaking out?19:04
MaskilPDXkept dropping my wireless connection19:04
MaskilPDXUnstable would be a better word19:05
tgm4883I've only used the VPN clients in NM19:06
nibalizerMaskilPDX: sorry only nm for me19:08
nibalizerone of our guys got it working in the cli but i don't have the infos for how19:08
MaskilPDXok19:11
MaskilPDXI have been trying KVpnc19:12
MaskilPDXIt has sooo many bells and whistles, that it's a bit more than I need19:13
bkerensaslangasek: is there a log I might look to to see why my laptop is having trouble connecting to a wireless AP? In one out of five boots in 12.10 my system just stalls and loops attempting to connect but it worked fine in 12.0419:13
bkerensabdmurray: 1010799 ? hmm19:13
bkerensabdmurray: it is a Debian bug though and has a fix committed upstream already19:14
MaskilPDXDo you know if I can have nm handle VPN, and Wicd handle network connections?19:14
MaskilPDXLooks like you can.  With Wicd installed, nm shows no connections, but allows you to create VPN connections.19:18
MaskilPDXcool19:18

bkerensabdmurray: Merge proposal now in for 101079919:27
bkerensabdmurray: feel free to share more low hanging fruit19:27
bdmurraybkerensa: it could use fixing for precise too19:51
bkerensabdmurray: ok20:00

bkerensabdmurray: done :)20:09
bdmurraybkerensa: it's actually already fixed in quantal - debian/patches/008-Twisted_11.1.0_compat.dpatch20:19
bkerensa>.<20:19
bkerensabdmurray: hmm well it was there in the source when I branched it20:20
bkerensa=/20:20
bdmurrayright because the source doesn't have the patches applied to it20:20
bkerensaah20:22
bdmurrayso the thing to do here is incorporate the changes in http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/quantal/hellanzb/quantal/revision/13 and put them in the precise version of the package20:25
bkerensabdmurray: ok so you want me to drop off the changes to the source then just add the dpatch and 00list?20:27
bdmurraybkerensa: yes, that sounds about right20:30
nathwillmaskilpdx, what kind of vpn?20:35
bkerensabdmurray: I have incorporated those changes into my branch that is merge proposed20:36
bdmurraybkerensa: the version number should be lower than the version in quantal otherwise people won't be able to upgrade the package20:38
bkerensaah20:38
bkerensabdmurray: what do you propose?20:38
bkerensaubuntu1?20:39
bdmurrayisn't that what is in quantal?20:39
bkerensahmm20:39
* bkerensa checks20:39
bdmurrayhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityTeam/UpdatePreparation#Update_the_packaging20:40
bdmurraythat has guidelines about package versioning20:40
bdmurraydpkg --compare-versions is helpful here20:42
bdmurrayand the release should be precise-proposed20:42
bkerensabdmurray: based on the versioning doc I don't understand what change would be required20:53
bkerensaprecise is 0.13-6.1 where quantal is currently 0.13-6.1ubuntu120:53
bdmurray0.13-6.1ubuntu0 would work20:54
bdmurrayor 1ubuntu0.12.04.120:54
bkerensabdmurray: ok pushed that change20:56
bdmurraybkerensa: great, the bug could still use SRU information - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates.  The testcase will be cake though!21:07
bkerensabdmurray: what should I put for regression potential and other info?21:11
bdmurraybkerensa: well the regression potential is a statement of how things could go wrong and really since the app doesn't start at all it can't get much worse21:12
bdmurraybkerensa: a statement about this is fixed in debian and upstream may help too21:13
bkerensabdmurray: I just file this SRU in a bug against the package right?21:16
bkerensado I add any special headline or tags?21:16
bdmurraybkerensa: no, just modify bug 101079921:16

bkerensabdmurray: Add it in or totally remove the old description?21:17
bdmurraybkerensa: I usually prepend the existing subscription with SRU information21:17
bdmurraybecause the existing bug description has a good stack trace etc....21:17
bkerensabdmurray: ok I have prepended21:18
