mh0 | Hiya. I've had a application "In review" for about 2 weeks now, I was wondering what a ETA could be for such apps? | 17:57 |
---|---|---|
dpm | mh0, which app is it? Perhaps ajmitch or highvoltage can help? | 18:02 |
mh0 | It's named "Clock" | 18:02 |
highvoltage | dpm: I could perhaps, I don't think I ahve arb rights back yet though (but should soon) | 18:14 |
dpm | highvoltage, yeah, but I was thinking in terms of reviewing it, not uploading it | 18:16 |
highvoltage | mh0: have a link for me? | 18:16 |
highvoltage | the name already sounds like it could be a problem if it's that generic, but I'll check in the package name itself | 18:17 |
mh0 | https://myapps.developer.ubuntu.com/dev/apps/2016/ | 18:17 |
highvoltage | mh0: ok, checking it now, it does seem like you'll have to change the name, though | 18:18 |
mh0 | Yeah, kinda thought that | 18:18 |
mh0 | I really should be more creative in terms of names. | 18:19 |
highvoltage | mh0: thinking of good, original names for things is really hard | 18:19 |
highvoltage | almost no one gets it right :) | 18:19 |
mh0 | Indeed | 18:20 |
highvoltage | mh0: I ran the .deb I got in that zip file through lintian, it reported some problems worth addressing: | 18:21 |
highvoltage | E: clock: arch-independent-package-contains-binary-or-object opt/Clock/libffmpegsumo.so | 18:21 |
highvoltage | so "all" should probably be changed to "any" in the debian control file | 18:21 |
mh0 | Right, okies | 18:21 |
mh0 | Then re-upload? | 18:21 |
highvoltage | yep | 18:22 |
highvoltage | it's complaining about some spelling mistakes too. that's minor, but I suggest you run lintian too and then fix those for what it's worth | 18:22 |
highvoltage | mh0: does the clock play videos or something? | 18:22 |
highvoltage | mh0: there are embedded video codecs in there :) | 18:23 |
mh0 | Hm, I'm sure its needed for node-webkit | 18:23 |
highvoltage | if it does indeed need them, then you need to depend on the codecs already in the archives and remove them from your package | 18:23 |
highvoltage | eek, it also contains openssl, zlib, libjpeg, libxml2, libpng, sqlite... | 18:24 |
highvoltage | you'll have to remove all of those and use the libraries already provided by Ubuntu | 18:24 |
highvoltage | mh0: ok, so running lintian on your package and working through the report it gives you will pretty much give you a lot of things worth fixing already | 18:25 |
mh0 | Hm, I'll check more on how to package node-webkit apps for ubuntu | 18:25 |
mh0 | if you could then put all of the fixes back to me I can have a look at them | 18:25 |
highvoltage | mh0: I'm afraid you'll have to fix them | 18:30 |
mh0 | Yep, I understand that | 18:30 |
