| xnox | Logan_: yeah, unlike debian we don't auto-close bugs because (i) this package is still in previous releases (ii) the package might be reintroduced later (iii) it's actually useful information | 01:36 |

| om26er | Hi! could anyone on Quantal with nvidia binary driver please see if bug 1058391 is happening | 13:39 |

| abuchbinder | Hi! I'm trying to backport a patch into Lucid--it's an isolated bug, simple patch, comes with a test suite, and fixes a loses-user-data bug. Good candidate for SRU, I think. | 14:23 |
| abuchbinder | The bug is here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vim/+bug/1059085 | 14:23 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 1059085 in vim "recovery silently deletes data in large files." [Undecided,New] | 14:24 |
| abuchbinder | Ah, convenient. So, if anyone's around--what's the next step here? Do I format a debdiff? Make a bzr branch? If this were Debian, I'd send in a debdiff, but Ubuntu seems to have changed processes at some point. What do I do next for an SRU? | 14:24 |
| penguin42 | abuchbinder: https://wiki.edubuntu.org/StableReleaseUpdates | 14:26 |
| penguin42 | abuchbinder: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates (that's the same I think, but from the ubuntu.com ) | 14:28 |
| abuchbinder | Right; I've got that, but how do I format the actual patch? | 14:28 |
| penguin42 | abuchbinder: I've not done SRUs, but debdiffs seem OK, but if you can do a bzr branch they seem happier | 14:29 |
| penguin42 | oh that page doesn't have that on does it | 14:30 |

| abuchbinder | So, I want to do an SRU, and I made a branch here: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~adam-buchbinder/ubuntu/lucid/vim/vim-large-file-recovery/revision/58 | 14:59 |
| abuchbinder | Err, here: https://code.launchpad.net/~adam-buchbinder/ubuntu/lucid/vim/vim-large-file-recovery | 14:59 |
| abuchbinder | I filed a bug here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vim/+bug/1059085 | 15:00 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 1059085 in vim "recovery silently deletes data in large files." [High,Triaged] | 15:00 |
| penguin42 | abuchbinder: Did you see my http://developer.ubuntu.com/packaging/html/fixing-a-bug.html post before you dropped off before? | 15:00 |
| abuchbinder | Ah, missed it. Thanks! | 15:02 |
| penguin42 | abuchbinder: I think it might be worth editing the bug description to note that precise and quantal already have versions new enough | 15:04 |
| === Jikan is now known as Jikai | ||
| abuchbinder | I made a branch and linked it to the bug. So now I run pbuilder to test it, and then run 'bzr lp-propose' to propose merging. There's no extra steps because it's an SRU? | 15:04 |
| penguin42 | abuchbinder: I've not done SRUs, just non-SRU fixes | 15:06 |
| abuchbinder | (Edited to specify Lucid in the bug report.) | 15:08 |
| penguin42 | abuchbinder: I'd give it a few days and see if anyone responds to your bug and then if you don't get a response see if you can find someone to prod | 15:08 |
| TJ- | abuchbinder: the main thing with SRUs is the patch should usually be in the development release already, and/or upstream. It can vary, though. | 15:11 |
| penguin42 | TJ-: Looking at packages.u.c precise and quantal have vim versions after the one referenced in teh bug | 15:13 |
| TJ- | penguin42: We usually check to see if upstream has fixed the issue. If so, we try to backport the same patch with minor fixups if necessary. If the code-base has changed too drastically then a stand-alone patch is acceptable. | 15:15 |
| === yofel_ is now known as yofel | ||
| abuchbinder | TJ: Yeah; that's what I did. | 15:37 |
| abuchbinder | See: https://code.launchpad.net/~adam-buchbinder/ubuntu/lucid/vim/vim-large-file-recovery/+merge/127161 | 15:37 |
| abuchbinder | Please let me know if this is reasonable, or if I should be doing something else process-wise. | 15:37 |
| TJ- | abuchbinder: You'll be good to go, then :) | 15:39 |
| abuchbinder | Thanks, everyone! I'll be back to nudge people if the patch doesn't get looked at in a few days. | 15:42 |
