bkerensadholbach: so the adding of the ubuntu changes by submittodebian this is in fact a bug or intentional of the tool?08:15
dholbachif you work on 1.2.3-4ubuntu2, submittodebian will include the changes of 1.2.3-4ubuntu1 as well08:16
bkerensabut if I am bzr branch debian:package name I am not working on 1.2.4.-4ubuntu2 but instead am working with upstreams source package and yet in these cases it still drops ubuntu changes into it08:17
dholbachit might be that submittodebian always uses the last ubuntu revision to diff against and not care about bzr branches overly much08:18
dholbachin that case just      bzr diff > ~/patch08:18
dholbachand submit this on your own (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Debian/Bugs)08:19
bdrungScottK: how many have "build-depends: @cdbs@" in control.in?08:40
bdrungScottK: see my comments in debian bug #69476008:55
ubottuDebian bug 694760 in devscripts "devscripts: Please mark Multi-Arch: foreign" [Wishlist,Open] http://bugs.debian.org/69476008:55
bdrungScottK: the only valid reverse dependency is bzr-builddeb (using dch)08:55
hrwRhonda: hi09:09
cjwatsonbdrung: I didn't really look since I don't care about the reasons :)09:11
cjwatsonbdrung: why argue?  M-A: foreign would be harmless09:12
bdrungcjwatson: because you actually mention two issues: multiarch and build dependencies on devscripts09:13
cjwatsonbdrung: it doesn't hurt to M-A: foreign random things with no architecture-dependent interfaces, regardless of the reasons09:15
bdrungcjwatson: agreed. i was just commenting that package build depend on devscripts, which is wrong IMO09:16
cjwatsonI don't care about that - I'm just trying to unblock as many cross-build issues as I can09:17
cjwatsonthe more things we unblock with strategic multiarching, the more we get to find out about real per-package issues09:17
cjwatsonif you require us to change cdbs, then it'll be months or years before we can find out whether those packages cross-build once their dependencies are satisfied09:18
cjwatsonsure, by all means try to reduce the build-dep graph - I'd just like that to be done in parallel with this09:19
bdrungcjwatson: they are two different issues. i will commit your fix.09:19
cjwatsonthanks09:20
bdrungcjwatson: how import is that fix? do you think we will get a unblock request granted?09:21
cjwatsonI wouldn't expect the Debian release team to consider it important for wheezy09:22
Laneyaboudreault: great news. will you submit the fix to ubuntu/debian?09:22
bdrungcjwatson: ok, then i will commit it into our master branch (will be in the next upload to experimental)09:22
cjwatsonI'd like to have it for raring09:23
cjwatsonta09:23
bdrungcjwatson: done: http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=devscripts/devscripts.git;a=commitdiff;h=ae4fb54bdeb59649bcf89103d73bcf97b0dbd81b09:30
bdrungcjwatson: when is feature freeze?09:31
Laneyhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/RaringRingtail/ReleaseSchedule09:34
bdrungokay, still enough time to do the experimental upload09:37
Rhondahrw: hmm?09:43
hrwRhonda: packages.ubuntu.com question - why it does not list armhf/armel packages?09:44
RhondaBecause noone told me it should?09:45
hrwRhonda: :)09:45
RhondaSince which release are they to be included?09:46
hrwRhonda: armel was lucid->quantal, armhf precise->raring09:46
RhondaHmm, I don't se a Contents-armel.gz or Contents-armhf.gz in *any* release?09:47
Rhondahttp://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/raring/09:47
Laneylives on the ports archive09:47
Laneyports.ubuntu.com09:47
hrwRhonda: http://ports.ubuntu.com/dists/09:47
Rhondahttp://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/raring/main/ also only lists binary-amd64 and binary-i38609:47
RhondaWell, if it's ports and not official archs …09:47
hrwand here we have standard problem ;)09:48
Laneyit's various hysterical raisins - armhf is pretty supported (moreso than powerpc, which packages does already list)09:48
hrweach time when I ask why arm is still on ports everyone dissapear09:48
RhondaIf I would include ports I probably should include armel, armhf, hppa, ia64, lpia, powerpc and sparc, the full suite?09:49
Rhondaah, that was hardy.09:49
hrwRhonda: armel, armhf, powerpc only - rest died already09:49
Laneyarmel already did too?09:49
Laneydepends how much work you want to do for non-current series09:50
hrwLaney: in raring yes.09:50
hrwlucid had sparc but oneiric didn't09:50
hrwbut I have no idea was sparc supported at all09:50
hrwhi infinity09:51
RhondaSo if I could get some sort of "official" statement which archs from ports should be listed …  I could try to add them.09:51
RhondaOr if I should just pull all from ports that are available for the releases, that's fine with me too09:52
infinityRhonda: The latter.09:52
infinityRhonda: It's more useful for people to be able to see everything.  Much like packages.d.o shows debian-ports stuff, even if it's "unofficial".09:52
LaneyYeah, you might as well do that09:52
RhondaWill take me a bit.  We have "ports" support in the packages code on packages.debian.org, so there's not too much to do here, I just have to give it a good whack at the right spot to make it work properly.09:53
infinityWe don't actually treat our ports as second-class citizens.09:53
Laneyit must already be working for .u.c somehow because powerpc09:53
infinityIf they can just be mushed together into one, that would be nice.09:53
infinity(On ftpmaster, it's all one archive, we only split it for mirrors)09:54
Rhondaweeeelllll09:54
RhondaAnd packages.debian.org seemingly only shows ports for unstable09:54
RhondaLaney: Where do you see powerpc listed?09:54
LaneySearch the contents of packages -> architecture09:54
RhondaRight, but there are no packages therein09:55
Laneyperhaps it's listed but doesn't work - i didn't try a search :-)09:55
Rhondapackages.ubuntu.com/irssi does list powerpc only at the top as selection (together with armel, FWIW)09:56
infinityThe links at the top seem to have not much to do with functionality of the site. :)09:56
RhondaAh, wait, it has "arch all" packages for hardy in its list  :P09:57
Rhondas/for hardy //09:57
infinityRhonda: Just combining dists from archive and ports should DTRT.09:57
infinityRhonda: Perhaps even almost magically, though I've never looked at the packages.d.o code. :/09:57
infinity(Though, I guess the links to "download this package" would still need love..)09:58
RhondaWhat was the hostname again, sulfur was the old one :)09:58
Rhondajubany09:59
* Laney sheds a tear for sulfur09:59
infinityjubany was quite the upgrade...09:59
infinityUnless it got stripped down before it was given to you.09:59
RhondaI would have liked to help, but I never heard anything back to my canonical sysadmin application.  :P09:59
infinityThat used to launchpad's master postgresql instance.09:59

robottinosinoI am having problems with texlive-base (http://paste.ubuntu.com/1400458/), I am assuming this is a common issue? Saw a few bugs filed about this..20:33
tumbleweedLaney: it's less useful than you think, though. last upload is often not what you want to see20:47
=== almaisan-away is now known as al-maisan
robottinosinoIs this a bug? http://paste.ubuntu.com/1400458/ http://paste.ubuntu.com/1400609/21:26
tumbleweedwhy does this remind me of askubuntu.com? :)21:28
tumbleweedrobottinosino: all we can see is that the last thing executed was /etc/libpaper.d/texlive-base - that's the next thing to investigate21:29
robottinosinosounds great. :) if you can guide me, I am here to troubleshoot this :)21:30
robottinosinoi honestly think this may be common to many machines, not just mine21:30
robottinosinodpkg status gives me this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1400638/21:32
tumbleweedrobottinosino: set -x in /etc/libpaper.d/texlive-base and run it21:33
robottinosino(Status: install ok half-configured) - sure, will do...21:33
robottinosinohttp://paste.ubuntu.com/1400645/21:34
robottinosinoI have seen more than one bug related to this (example: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=648278 from askubuntu, which you know - but there are others)21:36
ubottuDebian bug 648278 in texlive-base "texlive-base fails to install" [Serious,Fixed]21:36
robottinosinosolution does not work for me, is it possible?21:37
tumbleweeddoesn't look related to me21:37
robottinosinoWell, sorry for steering the issue away from the right path then. I apologise.21:38
robottinosinotumbleweed: are you able to reproduce it? the (Status: install ok half-configured)  I mean21:38
tumbleweedrobottinosino: no, can't reproduce it21:38
tumbleweedthat last command sholud have returned a4, don't know why it didn't21:38
robottinosinodoes it help to get a list of my installed packages?21:39
robottinosinodo i do that with a `dpkg --get-selections` ?21:39
tumbleweeddoubt it. I can't see anything obvious, and don't really know much about the tex / papersize bits21:41
robottinosinoNone of these issues/bugs are related? https://www.google.es/search?q="dpkg-query+--status+texlive-base"21:42
tumbleweedit'd be easy enough to make it install (you can exit 0 early in /etc/libpaper.d/texlive-base ), but I still don't know why it's failing21:42
=== al-maisan is now known as almaisan-away
robottinosinovery odd. :(21:47

jtaylorif a sru depends on another sru do I have to put in versioned (build-) depends?23:13
ScottKIf it will FTBFS on the older version no.  If it will misbuild, yes.23:24
ScottKb-d versioning shouldn't be about bugs or archive skew, but sometimes you have no choice.23:24
jtaylorwhy not for ftbs?23:24
ScottKBecause then you could just retry it23:26
ScottKNo harm done.23:26
ScottKIf it will misbuild with the older one, then add the version limit to avoid a misbuild.23:26
jtaylorso its not like e.g debian exp were it will use unstable unless its versioned?23:26
ScottKCorrect.23:27
