[01:00] <zx2c4> hey there
[01:00] <zx2c4> anybody want to play with this? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1047122
[01:00] <zx2c4> ive already written the control files
[07:17] <jtaylor> what is the best way to list packages that have a newer version in wheezy?
[07:32] <tumbleweed> multidistrotools?
[07:33] <jtaylor> is that a package name?
[07:34] <tumbleweed> http://qa.ubuntuwire.org/multidistrotools/
[07:35] <jtaylor> nice thanks
[07:41] <jtaylor> would be nice to show those which only got newer since wheezy is frozen (= unblocked ones)
[07:47] <tumbleweed> parse the relase team's hints files?
[07:48] <jtaylor> thats what I'm doing
[07:48] <tumbleweed> don't know how much history they have, though
[07:49] <tumbleweed> also, you could find this out with a sql query: uploads published in wheezy ince the freeze where ubuntu is behind
[07:49] <tumbleweed> (udd)
[08:56] <jtaylor> does adding xz need a ffe?
[09:53] <tumbleweed> no
[10:53] <jtaylor> asterisk is done in quantal, anyone volunteer for the massive sec update for precise? :)
[10:54] <jtaylor> (btw. I think it would be better to drop, that thing gets so many sec updates it is unsupportable by motu)
[10:54]  * tumbleweed is suprised canonical doesn't have any clients using it
[10:54] <Laney> xnox has broken the installer again
[10:55] <Laney> (@ global jam in london)
[10:55] <tumbleweed> that's why we made him a core-dev, right? so he can break more things (and then fix them)
[10:55] <Laney> some good user testing going on
[10:55] <tumbleweed> damn. I didn't even know this weekend was global jam. I might have organised something
[10:56]  * Laney wonders if there is a webcam
[10:56] <Laney> for hangout
[10:56] <tumbleweed> how do you even work on the installer atm? unity in kvm is totally borked for me
[10:57] <tumbleweed> mind you, I haven't upgraded post-freeze. /me does that
[11:03] <cjwatson> tumbleweed: never mind clients, I think we use it internally
[11:03] <cjwatson> tumbleweed: but I expect not on quantal ...
[11:04] <tumbleweed> and firewalled to within an inch of its life, because it has to be...
[11:05] <jtaylor> the sru queue hasn't been handled since a while
[11:05] <jtaylor> is it looked at randomly or ad sort of fixed times?
[11:06] <tumbleweed> I was grumbling about that in #ubuntu-release last night. I'm assured people are working on it
[11:06] <tumbleweed> and there were a big pile accepted in the evening
[11:06] <jtaylor> none of mine :(
[11:06] <tumbleweed> nor mine
[11:06] <jtaylor> and their under the oldest
[11:07] <jtaylor> but granted not very important packages
[11:08]  * tumbleweed upgrades his quantal vm, and it's just as unusable
[11:08] <tumbleweed> it is quite fun trying to use it without a mouse pointer, though
[11:08] <jtaylor> ^^
[11:08] <jtaylor> xdotool might be helpful
[11:08] <tumbleweed> I get tooltips, which sort-of help me see where I am
[11:09] <jtaylor> quantal is working quite well natively for me
[11:09] <arand> The backports repo, is it just one guy working on that at the moment (given the auto-subscription for bugs reported against it)?
[11:09] <Laney> no, there is a backporters team
[11:09] <jtaylor> only tomboy and banshee keep crashing every 10 minutes :/
[11:09] <Laney> hmm
[11:09] <tumbleweed> Laney: ^ lots of lovely desktop issues. fix them :)
[11:09] <Laney> i see that for banshee but not tomboy
[11:09] <Laney> err
[11:09] <jtaylor> I even have dualscreen without propretary drivers :) something I didn't manage in the past
[11:10] <jtaylor> tomboy crashes with some dbus thing
[11:10] <arand> Laney: But I shouldn't be explicitly subscribing them in a request?
[11:10] <jtaylor> didn't look into it yet
[11:10] <Laney> file it on the right project and they get mail
[11:12] <arand> Ok. (I though that normally was displayed though)
[14:35] <Laney> come hang out with us https://plus.google.com/hangouts/_/f62d22a92ed855624be306e8ab1c83e570c5eda5?authuser=0&hl=en-GB
[14:48] <exodus> Laney, motu hangout?
[14:48] <Laney> global jam
[14:49] <exodus> Cool, our LoCo will join in a bit, I'm heading out to the group meeting and we'll hangout from there
[15:56] <ScottK> tumbleweed: It would be nice if in this cycle syncpackage learned how to sync from Debian to -backports so that once we have that process nailed for the "R" cycle the right tool will be in everyone's hands.
[18:12] <highvoltage> good afternoon
