| dholbach | bdrung, do you think we could get another ubuntu-packaging-guide uploaded? | 12:06 |
| bdrung | dholbach: yes | 12:08 |
| dholbach | awesome | 12:08 |
| dholbach | I just added an article which I feel could be interesting | 12:08 |
| dholbach | once we have it uploaded, I can take care of a backport to precise | 12:09 |
| dholbach | thanks a lot bdrung | 12:16 |
| bdrung | dholbach: before uploading: in 2.3.2 there is an missing closing bracket | 12:19 |
| bdrung | dholbach: the structure of the following sentence is a bit weird: "While this test is very small and basic, it tests quite a number of core components on a system, so is very important to have as it might uncover a big number of problems." | 12:20 |
| dholbach | bdrung, hum, what is 2.3.2? | 12:21 |
| bdrung | dholbach: "The actual tests" | 12:21 |
| dholbach | aha | 12:21 |
| dholbach | let me see | 12:21 |
| dholbach | bdrung, thanks a lot - fixed | 12:23 |
| dholbach | bdrung, hang on, just got another suggeston from jibel | 12:23 |
| dholbach | done | 12:24 |
| bdrung | dholbach: btw, do you want to become a maintainer of that package in Debian? | 12:24 |
| dholbach | hm, I have never really dealt with uploading packages to Debian | 12:25 |
| bdrung | dholbach: being maintainer != doing an upload | 12:26 |
| dholbach | still, I'm not sure I should be doing it | 12:26 |
| bdrung | dholbach: you are listed in Uploaders and in the changelog stanza, but you still need a sponsor to do the actual upload | 12:26 |
| bdrung | being a maintainer is more about having the responsibility | 12:27 |
| dholbach | I'm really happy to take care of it in Ubuntu - but I'm not sure I want to be maintainer of it in Debian - I deal with almost everything else around the packaging guide already and I don't even have a Debian system to try things on | 12:28 |
| bdrung | dholbach: i doubt that this package could have debian only bugs | 12:29 |
| bdrung | dholbach: the grammar seems wrong in the new sentence "Also will [...]" | 12:29 |
| dholbach | hum | 12:30 |
| bdrung | where's the subject? | 12:30 |
| dholbach | I'm not sure | 12:30 |
| dholbach | "packages in Debian" is the subject of the sentence | 12:31 |
| bdrung | Also packages in Debian with a testsuite header will be automatically added when they are synced to Ubuntu. | 12:32 |
| bdrung | sound more English to me | 12:32 |
| dholbach | ^ native speakers :) | 12:32 |
| cjwatson | Better but not quite | 12:32 |
| cjwatson | Packages in Debian with a testsuite header will also be automatically added when they are synced to Ubuntu. | 12:32 |
| cjwatson | Seems better to me | 12:33 |
| dholbach | great, thank you | 12:33 |
| cjwatson | (You could alternatively say "Also, ...", but that reads a bit clumsily to me.) | 12:33 |
| cjwatson | Puts the stress in a slightly different place I suppose. | 12:33 |
| dholbach | updated :) | 12:34 |
| bdrung | dholbach: thanks. i am doing the upload now. | 12:36 |
| dholbach | excellent | 12:37 |
| spartan-11510 | Hi | 12:47 |
| spartan-11510 | i've a litlle question on packaging. When you have a java software, do you create a shell for launh the software, because you must write "java -jar archive.jar" | 12:48 |
| cjwatson | I answered spartan-11510 on #ubuntu-devel. (It's best not to crosspost questions, generally.) | 13:18 |
| cjwatson | (Or at least say that you've done so.) | 13:18 |
| spartan-11510 | Okay i'll remember for the next time :) and thank's a lot for your answer | 13:19 |

| MohamedAlaa98_ | hello :) | 16:15 |
| MohamedAlaa98_ | I've a source package (im-switch) and I want to create a patch for it | 16:15 |
| MohamedAlaa98_ | but the problem is it doesn't have a patch system | 16:16 |
| MohamedAlaa98_ | when I run the command edit-patch my-patch | 16:16 |
| MohamedAlaa98_ | I get this output No patchsystem detected, cannot create new patch (no dpatch/quilt/cdbs?) | 16:17 |
| cjwatson | It's a native package; it doesn't and shouldn't have a patch system. Just edit the source code directly. | 16:17 |
| MohamedAlaa98_ | you mean using the bzr branching/ | 16:17 |
| MohamedAlaa98_ | ? | 16:17 |
| MohamedAlaa98_ | I've already made a branch with the fix I want | 16:18 |
| MohamedAlaa98_ | https://code.launchpad.net/~m-alaa8/ubuntu/quantal/im-switch/fix-for-621204 | 16:18 |
| micahg | MohamedAlaa98_: I think that needs a UIFe (I thought I commented on that) | 16:19 |
| * micahg guesses he thought about commenting on that | 16:20 | |
| cjwatson | I don't care whether it involves bzr or not. My point is that you just edit the files directly rather than creating a patch file. | 16:20 |
| MohamedAlaa98 | sorry for lag | 16:21 |
| MohamedAlaa98 | did I miss something? | 16:21 |
| cjwatson | 17:20 <cjwatson> I don't care whether it involves bzr or not. My point is that you just edit the files directly rather than creating a patch file. | 16:21 |

| mitya57 | MohamedAlaa98: you forgot a hash mark before the bug number (LP: 621204) | 16:25 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 621204 in im-switch (Ubuntu) "Typo in error string" [Undecided,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/621204 | 16:26 |
| mitya57 | MohamedAlaa98: and please also submit the change to Debian ;) | 16:30 |
| mitya57 | there is a submittodebian tool in ubuntu-dev-tools | 16:30 |
| Laney | tumbleweed: micahg: bdrung: Who's organising the UDS KSP then? ;-) | 16:31 |
| MohamedAlaa98 | sorry the irc client disconnects, what did I miss? | 16:31 |
| MohamedAlaa98 | mitya57: how? | 16:32 |
| tumbleweed | Laney: good thinking | 16:33 |
| mitya57 | MohamedAlaa98: simply run submittodebian | 16:33 |
| mitya57 | MohamedAlaa98: http://developer.ubuntu.com/packaging/html/fixing-a-bug-example.html#getting-the-fix-included | 16:33 |
| MohamedAlaa98 | ok | 16:33 |
| jtaylor | tinymux ftbs confuses me | 17:59 |
| jtaylor | it declares an own stpcpy which apparently conflicts with the one in string.h | 18:00 |
| jtaylor | but the one in string.h should not be enabled by default | 18:00 |
| jtaylor | its not enabled on the command line or config.h | 18:01 |
| jtaylor | hm found it some autoconf.h defines gnu source | 18:02 |
| jtaylor | wait GNU_SOURCE should also not enable it ... | 18:03 |
| jtaylor | how to fill out the bug template for an sru fixing two bugs? | 18:33 |
| jtaylor | fill out the template in both bugs or just one? | 18:33 |
| micahg | jtaylor: template in both debdiff on one | 18:39 |
