| jfi | yofel, thanks a lot yofel | 09:17 |
| txomon | hi, I just reported this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1062758 about the installation in text mode (the mode that you default use in alternative CDs and in mini-iso / netboot installations) | 10:02 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 1062758 in ubuntu "In text installation select and install programs menu needs improvement" [Undecided,New] | 10:02 |
| txomon | I had no idea on which packet to put it | 10:05 |
| yofel | txomon: I'm not exactly sure either, the installer would be 'debian-installer', the install task selection is provided by 'tasksel' I believe, but I'm not sure if d-i uses that or has it's own menu | 10:42 |
| txomon | well, that isn't really the package, as the meta packages are the config... no idea really yofel | 10:42 |
| malizor | Hi everyone, | 11:12 |
| malizor | I keep having a bug in aptd on Quantal | 11:13 |
| malizor | Apport redirect me to this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1058038 | 11:13 |
| ubot2 | malizor: Error: <Bugtracker.plugin.Launchpad instance at 0x89c760c> bug 1058038 not found | 11:13 |
| malizor | But yeah, it is not found. | 11:13 |
| malizor | Is it because the bug is marked private? | 11:14 |
| jtaylor | probably | 11:14 |
| jtaylor | meh my internet is acting up can't check | 11:15 |
| malizor | Can someone have a look and change it to public if possible? | 11:15 |
| malizor | As far as I know, this is just an encoding bug when installing a deb file which path has accent in it... | 11:15 |
| jtaylor | made it public | 11:27 |
| malizor | jtaylor: thanks! | 11:59 |

| x64 | hello everyone | 15:21 |
| penguin42 | hey | 15:22 |
| x64 | i'm new to bug-fixing | 15:22 |
| x64 | i've read the wiki | 15:22 |
| x64 | and have tried the tutorials | 15:22 |
| x64 | how do i find a bug which is good to start with ? | 15:24 |
| dlentz | hi x64, is there anything or packages you're interested in? | 15:24 |
| penguin42 | x64: To fix or to triage? | 15:24 |
| penguin42 | x64: To fix look for ones tagged with bitesize | 15:24 |
| x64 | i wish gwibber was better :) | 15:24 |
| x64 | thanks penguin42 , i'll sure do that | 15:25 |
| dlentz | a good rule of thumb is to "scratch your itch" (for me, it was audio bugs, but I branched out into other stuff too) | 15:25 |
| penguin42 | yeh fixing stuff that annoys you is good :-) | 15:25 |
| x64 | i'm more interested in fixing than triaging... but don't have any prblm | 15:26 |
| x64 | i'm looking at the bugs page of ubuntu in launchpad | 15:27 |
| x64 | where does the bitsize tag appear ? | 15:27 |
| mitya57 | x64: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bugs?field.tag=bitesize | 15:28 |
| mitya57 | x64: also some easy-to-fix things are listed here: | 15:29 |
| mitya57 | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/BugFixingInitiative#New_contributors | 15:29 |
| x64 | thanks mitya57 | 15:29 |
| x64 | mitya57 : | 15:30 |
| x64 | what's the second link about ? | 15:30 |
| x64 | is it like the tutorial about bumprace ? | 15:31 |
| mitya57 | x64: ignore that, it seems that most of the bugs from there are fixed already | 15:31 |
| x64 | ok | 15:32 |
| jtaylor | x64: here a couple of merges/syncs that could be worthwile for quantal http://paste.ubuntu.com/1264034/ | 15:32 |
| x64 | how do i search bugs with a particular tag ? | 15:32 |
| mitya57 | x64: use advanced search: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bugs?advanced=1 | 15:33 |
| mitya57 | or use my link above and replace "bitesize" with your tag | 15:33 |
| x64 | ok, got it | 15:33 |
| x64 | i found this the simplest : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ftpcopy/+bug/305831 | 15:36 |
| ubot2 | Ubuntu bug 305831 in ftpcopy "spelling mistake in man page" [Low,Triaged] | 15:36 |
| x64 | ya | 15:37 |
| x64 | can somebody guide me to go about fixing it | 15:37 |
| penguin42 | x64: http://developer.ubuntu.com/packaging/html/fixing-a-bug.html | 15:38 |
| penguin42 | x64: Remember to check upstream in debian and/or the original place the app comes from to get it fixed there | 15:39 |
| x64 | okkk... i just couldn't understand the edit-patch part | 15:39 |
| jtaylor | spelling fixes aren't that useful in ubuntu | 15:40 |
| jtaylor | its best to forward these to upstream/debian | 15:40 |
| x64 | i'll fix the spelling after branching it... but what next ? | 15:40 |
| x64 | jtaylor : very true... | 15:40 |
| x64 | but i just need to start | 15:41 |
| penguin42 | x64: So the idea is to branch it, then make the fixed branch available on lp for merging | 15:41 |
| penguin42 | x64: Then someone can look at it, agree or disagree with your change and press a button and it gets merged | 15:42 |
| x64 | tell me about the edit-patch part | 15:42 |
| penguin42 | x64: Debian packages start with a tar from upstream and then glue on a set of patches that fix individual issues, your change is to add an extra patch into that pile of patches | 15:43 |
| x64 | okkkkk | 15:44 |
| penguin42 | x64: edit-patch is a command from the devscripts package to make it easier to add patches | 15:44 |
| x64 | so after fixing the spelling, what should be my next step ? edit-patch ? | 15:45 |
| penguin42 | x64: It makes it a bit easier because there 3 or so different ways debian packages manage there patches, and I think it deals with all of them | 15:45 |
| penguin42 | x64: Well, do you have an actual patch file? | 15:46 |
| x64 | i just branched ftpcopy and have got a tar.gz file and a folder named debian | 15:47 |
| penguin42 | it seems to be a bit of an odd package | 15:50 |
| penguin42 | x64: That might not be a good one to start on, the package looks rather...odd | 15:51 |
| penguin42 | (It seems to be using a different patching scheme from almost precisely everything else) | 15:51 |
| x64 | that's surely not a good news | 15:52 |
| penguin42 | actually I'll remove bitesize off it for that reason | 15:56 |
