bjsnideri'm trying to submit updated scripts so gecko-mediaplayer will build in raring, but i can't find the lp branch03:38
bjsniderassuming there is one. otherwise i don't know what the procedure would be03:38
bjsniderit will not build now due to changes in the gecko sdk03:40
trismbjsnider: lp:ubuntu/gecko-mediaplayer , seems to still build though04:04
bjsniderwhere's the buildlog?04:04
bjsnideri think it was just copied over from an early quantal build04:10
trismbjsnider: yeah it was, I just rebuilt it locally, if you mean the build failure from quantal, that was fixed in 1.0.6-1ubuntu204:11
bjsniderwait04:14
bjsnider i just checked the changelog04:14
bjsnidersomeone already implemented the changes i was going to propose04:15
bjsniderthat's good04:15
bjsnideri knew about the problem and the fix weeks before the build failure happened and the bug and fix were submitted. it seems like it would have been good if i had been notified of the build failure when it happened04:23
=== cpg is now known as cpg|away
bjsniderwell, about one week anyway04:25
persiabjsnider: You might look at the FTBFS page source for some code that does polling of build failures, and then run something similar that drives some notification system for the packages about which you wish to be notified.04:48
persiaThat said, most folk who have such knowledge post fixes to the upstream VCS or bug tracker (depending), which fixes are often cherrypicked by those Ubuntu developers working on FTBFS who prefer research to rediscovery.04:49
mah454I Compiled new kernel and switch to this , but consoles [tty1-6] (Ctrl+Alt+F[123456]) not work !05:05
mah454How can find problem and fix it ?05:05
mah454all options on drivers -> character devices enabled ...05:05

queencyhello all : can you tell me where is the logs of start-stop-daemon ?14:31
infinityqueency: It doesn't log, its callers are responsible for logging, if appropriate.14:38
queencyHow can i direct the output to my open terminal ?14:41
lfaraonequeency: this quesiton may be better answered in #ubuntu15:00

DNShi.. how to add an entry to the ubuntu software center, or in other words how to make it visible? is this info stored in a .desktop file?21:44
DNSshould i rephrase? not sure if my question was clear21:50
jtaylorI think the info is in the desktop file21:52
DNShm21:53
DNSdo the icons in usc need to have min size?22:00
DNSprobably22:00
DNSanyone knows which size exactly?22:00
cjwatsonBenC: Looking at your linux-ppc package - since this is to be the primary set of kernels for powerpc, shouldn't it generate linux-libc-dev, not linux-ppc-libc-dev?  Otherwise libc won't actually end up depending on it, and will probably become uninstallable when we try to drop the NBS binaries from linux22:01
DNSor max size22:01
cjwatsonBenC: Also, there's some debian/*/DEBIAN cruft22:01
BenCcjwatson: It's not going to generate that package at all22:01
cjwatsonIndeed some general unclean-source-type stuff22:01
cjwatsonBenC: Not going to generate which package?22:01
BenCcjwatson: the master linux package is still building linux-libc-dev22:01
cjwatsonFor all architectures, really?22:02
jtaylorDNS: the smallest size in share/icons is 16x16 I guess thats the minimum22:02
cjwatsonI thought it wasn't going to build on powerpc at all any more22:02
BenCcjwatson: linux-ppc-libc-dev may show in the control file, but the rules have it forced to not build (in linux-ppc)22:02
cjwatsonOh, what do you know, it's still there.  OK22:02
BenCcjwatson: I talked with apw and rtg and we decided it was best to have it still built from linux.master22:02
* cjwatson peers at linux22:02
cjwatsonOK, gotcha.  5-minute linux build on powerpc, that's gotta be a first22:03
psusiit fail to build? ;)22:03
BenCYeah, very tame :)22:03
cjwatsonpsusi: successful, but building only headers22:05
cjwatsonBenC: Do you think you could fix up base-installer at some point to know about the new kernel names and conditions for using them?22:06
cjwatsonIt has a test suite and everything these days ;-)22:06
BenCcjwatson: Yeah, definitely22:06
BenCcjwatson: Is does base-installer cover livecd and alternate installer?22:07
cjwatsonLatter yes, former sort of mostly22:08
cjwatsonProbably simplest if I advise once I see the base-installer diff22:08
cjwatsonAre the new kernel flavours for actual different subarchitectures (i.e. the existing powerpc-smp and powerpc64-smp won't boot), or are they optimised?22:09
BenCcjwatson: Also, I'll be working on grub-kexec starting tomorrow, since the e500* kernels depend on this missing package22:09
cjwatsonOK22:10
cjwatsonHm, so that will block this from getting into raring which will in turn block the master kernels ...22:10
cjwatsonI might end up forcing that for now22:10
cjwatson(NEWed, anyway, so it can build overnight)22:10
BenCActual different sub-architectures. The regular kernels won't boot on e500* and the e500* kernels only work on those systems22:10
BenCThanks22:11
cjwatsonOK, so you end up with a ginormous live CD if you want that to boot on everything22:11
cjwatsonI guess22:11
BenCRecommends: grub-kexec22:11
cjwatsonOh, that's OK then22:11
BenCMight be ok, since it isn't depends?22:11
cjwatsonWe're still waiting for linux-lowlatency to be updated anyway22:11
BenCcjwatson: yeah, and I'm unsure if we should just create a new CD for e500* or not22:12
cjwatsonCan they handle DVDs?22:12
cjwatsonOr USB?22:12
BenCUSB, DVD if you have a USB capable external (our system doesn't have any CD/DVD media built-in)22:13
cjwatsonIf so I'd be inclined to suggest just bloating the image, as otherwise you're going to end up increasing the test matrix for any Ubuntu flavour including powerpc22:13
BenCI'm all for that22:13
BenCbloating the image, that is22:13
cjwatsonanyway, gotta run22:13
BenCcjwatson: Thanks for processing the packages22:14
