| darkxst | jbicha, whats the go with libaudit1? its stuck in proposed? | 02:19 |
|---|---|---|
| darkxst | gdm 3.7 wants it | 02:20 |
| jbicha | darkxst: when there's a new soname, the rdepends have to be rebuilt so that we don't have nbs packages | 02:23 |
| jbicha | reverse-depends src:audit | 02:23 |
| jbicha | also, although it's difficult to read: http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/proposed-migration/update_output.txt | 02:24 |
| darkxst | reverse-depends is quite broken here -> ImportError: No module named devscripts.logger | 02:26 |
| jbicha | after those 3 packages are rebuilt, it will migrate automatically | 02:26 |
| jbicha | http://paste.ubuntu.com/1529738/ | 02:26 |
| darkxst | ok | 02:29 |
| darkxst | jbicha, not sure if you have seen this, mozjs188 goodness, https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=690982 | 02:30 |
| ubot5 | Gnome bug 690982 in general "gjs: port to spidermonkey js188/esr17" [Normal,Unconfirmed] | 02:30 |
| darkxst | although the gnome guys seem to want an official tarball from mozilla before they switch over. | 02:32 |
| jbicha | darkxst: how risky would it be to use the newer gjs with GNOME 3.6? | 02:58 |
| darkxst | jbicha, I think it should work fine right now, but I don't know if there are any API changes planned down the track | 03:05 |
| darkxst | probably best to ask Jasper or gcampax, I guess | 03:05 |
| darkxst | but either way, worst case might be cherry-picking a few patches against g-s to get/keep it working | 03:06 |
| jbicha | we'd have to make sure that all of these keep working & building: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1529818/ | 03:08 |
| jbicha | and you'd need to coordinate with chrisccoulson at least | 03:08 |
| darkxst | jbicha, why? library would change to mozjs188 | 03:09 |
| darkxst | or mozjs187 which was a much smaller diff, but didnt really fix much | 03:10 |
| jbicha | darkxst: I assume we wouldn't be keeping the old library around? | 03:10 |
| darkxst | probably would have too, I don't really follow any of those other projects, but I am pretty sure no other project has even looked at js188 | 03:15 |
| darkxst | ricotz and I basically created our own tarball for that | 03:16 |
| darkxst | they may have looked at js187, since there is an (unreleased) tarball from mozilla for that | 03:16 |
| jbicha | it's a bit cleaner if we don't have to add a new source package but we don't want to start the transition if we don't think we can complete it | 03:17 |
| jbicha | anyway, Chris is listed as the mozjs Debian maintainer so see what he thinks | 03:18 |
| jbicha | I don't know much about javascript except that I help package gjs | 03:18 |
| darkxst | api changes from 187 -> 188 are all trivial, however it was a pain tracking some of them down, since they don't always trigger compiler warnings | 03:19 |
| darkxst | and nothing is documented ;( | 03:19 |
| darkxst | gjs has lot of custom bindings, it could well be the other packages are much easier though | 03:20 |
| darkxst | jbicha, cinammon uses gjs? | 03:21 |
| jbicha | I think cinnamon is a customized version of gnome-shell 3.2 with pieces ripped out, new stuff added, and a few things backported | 03:21 |
| darkxst | yeh I know that much, so its probably ok, I didnt have to touch a single line of gnome-shell code | 03:23 |
| darkxst | its mainly the custom bindings in gjs, that required porting | 03:24 |
| jbicha | darkxst: oh now that I updated I'm getting the devscripts.logger problem too :( | 17:33 |
| jbicha | installing https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/devscripts/2.12.6 works | 17:40 |
