[00:40] <micahg> Rhonda: is it not suitable for a distro backport?
[00:40] <micahg> ESphynx: it was, but I've been kinda busy, try me next weekend
[01:56] <ESphynx> micahg: been crasy busy myself... I'm going to try to find some time to cherry pick this properly
[01:56] <ESphynx> micahg: I'll let you know when it's done, maybe you can upload it =)
[01:57] <ESphynx> s/crasy/crazy
[04:37] <micahg> ESphynx: I'm piloting Wed if that helps any
[09:00] <Rhonda> micahg: I created it back then when there was a newer version that wasn't in the devel distribution.  And the backport process doesn't work for me for some reasons, I always get stuck somewhere waiting for feedback on and on. :/
[13:18] <jtaylor> Riddell: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/im-switch/1.20ubuntu2 can this be bumped to recommends?
[13:18] <jtaylor> right now if zenity is missing the desktop entry does nothing
[14:18] <jtaylor> Riddell: nevermind found a better way to fix it
[20:08] <mapreri> can someone help me to build a package? I'm using the bzr bd command (so dpkg-buildpackage), but it tells me that it can't make the changes file. Here some info: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1443995/
[20:08] <mapreri> I can't find thee problem....
[20:08] <mapreri> the*
[20:09] <jtaylor> how does your rules file look like?
[20:10] <mapreri> jtaylor: it is in the link above
[20:10] <jtaylor> oh
[20:11] <jtaylor> I recommend to use a different rules
[20:11] <mapreri> jtaylor: and thank you for answering :)
[20:11] <jtaylor> there is lots of stuff missing
[20:11] <jtaylor> I recommend /usr/share/doc/debhelper/examples/rules.tiny
[20:11] <jtaylor> see man dh
[20:12] <mapreri> I'm watching...
[20:14] <mapreri> ah, but using this rules file does not execute the upstream makefile? This makefile is not a good one... http://paste.ubuntu.com/1444008/
[20:16] <jtaylor> you can override_auto_build to do nothing
[20:26] <mapreri> I add also override_dh_auto_install, but it don't put any file inside the .deb (apart the debian control files)...
[20:26] <mapreri> -.-
[20:26] <jtaylor> how does it look now?
[20:27] <mapreri> the rules?
[20:27] <jtaylor> yes
[20:27] <mapreri> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1444019/
[20:28] <jtaylor> you have to put your copies in there
[20:28] <mapreri> I don't understand...
[20:29] <jtaylor> dh can't magically know what you want to do
[20:29] <jtaylor> it can only do that if the makefile is good
[20:29] <jtaylor> which you said is not
[20:29] <jtaylor> basically you copy what you had in the install: of your old rules into the auto_install override
[20:36] <mapreri> ummh.. now I simply suppose there are something wrong in other part of the package... rules: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1444025/ the last build: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1444028/ (note the lintian warning "empty binary package"). the tree: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1444031/ (the "rules 1" file is the old rules)
[20:39] <jtaylor> the installdir should be debian/<packagename>
[20:39] <jtaylor> its easiest to use dh_install
[20:42] <mapreri> lol, I'm a bit idiot sometime -.-'' I called the directory ebg in place of easybashgui...
[20:42] <mapreri> now it work.. I try to install the package..
[20:43] <mapreri> works*
