hallynkees: I assume you mean at add_id_mapping, to check for delayed write errors?03:44
hallynnot sure the id_mapping file would do that, though, in this case.  (haven't checked)03:45
xxiaois it ok to disable beam.smp. the cpu sucker?04:56
xxiaois  ubuntu-12.10-server-powerpc.iso 32 or 64 bit?05:13
xxiaoi mean the filesystem05:13
xxiaoi'm having trouble with 64bit kernel / 32bit ubuntu 12.10 on ppc05:13
xxiaoguess it's 32bit, as it's not named ubuntu-12.10-server-powerpc64.iso, the 'server' lable confuses me...05:15
xxiaomy issue is that 32bit qemu-nbd dislikes 32bit filesystem05:16
xxiaowhile runnning a 64bit kernel05:16
cjwatsonxxiao: 32-bit userspace, indeed09:18

IDWMasterHow do I recommend a package (library) for inclusion in one of the Ubuntu repositories?20:19
mlankhorstbest would be to get it in debian first, then request inclusion for ubuntu20:19
IDWMasterSo I should probably dual-boot a Debian installation?20:22
IDWMasterOr is there a better way20:22
IDWMasterWhy Debian first?20:22
slangasekUbuntu derives most of its packages from Debian, and getting it into Debian usually provides for more sustainable maintenance over the long term20:24
slangasekand if it's in Debian, more people benefit from the package's availability - Ubuntu users, but also Debian users20:24
slangasekbut there's no need to dual-boot to get a package into Debian; you can do most development work in a chroot20:24
slangasek(or VM)20:24
IDWMasterOK20:25
IDWMasterSo pbuilder would be a good tool for this20:25

chilicuilNCommander: hi there, sorry to bother, I was wondering if you could be able to help with bug #111364822:51
ubottubug 1113648 in nautilus (Ubuntu) "Add a context menu entry to create a new blank file" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/111364822:51
MaccerAnyone know where I can look up the maintainer for a certain package or what guidelines I need to follow so I can take over? There's a package here that hasn't been updated in quite a bit even though both there is a higher stable and unstable version. (It's an audio player)23:29
penguin42Maccer: apt-cache show   will show you the maintainers23:30
MaccerI found out through launchpad, but apparently the Debian Multimedia Maintainers group maintains this package... hrm.23:31
penguin42ah, I think they have a mailing list23:31
MaccerBut it looks like they maintain the unstable version if it. Yeah they do. Is there a way to add their unstable repository or can I only get their files through a .deb package?23:33
penguin42Maccer: does packages.debian.org show a newer version ?23:33
MaccerUsing debian unstable (sid), it shows 3.2.4 for the i386/i686/amd64 version, and I have 3.2.3, and I'm using a non-LTS Ubuntu 12.1023:35
penguin42Maccer: What does packages.ubuntu.org say ?23:36
MaccerWhat surprises though is why they don't upgrade Quantal (12.10?) to 3.3.4. It's a media player.23:36
penguin42Maccer: It's probably just not happened in time; if it's in debian sid it'll probably make it into Raring (depending when it landed)23:36
Maccerpenguin42: http://i.imgur.com/biwF6c9.png23:37
penguin42erm what's that got to do with anything?23:37
MaccerThat's packages.ubuntu.org.23:38
MaccerI have no idea why that's displaying.23:38
penguin42oops - .com!23:38
MaccerFor a second there I thought my DNS server was hijacked. Seems like they rewrite the URL so as to make it work with the subdomain.23:39
* xnox ponders how does doko make source packages with @ubuntu.com without updating Maintainer fields to say Ubuntu Developers, and whether that's bad or just ugly.23:39
MaccerSeems like quantal is 3.2.3. Yeah but this is odd because 3.2.4 came out more than 4 months ago I believe.23:39
MaccerPlus I'd expect the unstable version 3.3.x to be on Quantal.23:40
penguin42Maccer: That's not how it works23:40
penguin42Maccer: So quantal came out in October, and it's version won't be updated23:40
penguin42Maccer: Quantal will have taken the 'current' debian version a month or so before that, probably around August-September23:41
MaccerMh, so what are the release cycles for ubuntu then? It's just like debian but more frequently updated? I thought that was LTS.23:41
penguin42Maccer: Every 6 months and there's a timetable soemwhere where you can see when the sync's happen23:42
penguin42Maccer: There's talk of moving to a rolling release; the details I don't know23:43
MaccerAh, that's a shame. Has there been a release model in linux distributions that's a hybrid bleeding edge or rolling?23:43
penguin42Maccer: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RaringRingtail/ReleaseSchedule  so the sync from Debian happened in Feb23:44
MaccerStable libraries and core libraries, but unstable things like music players.23:44
xnoxMaccer: apart from at the moment we are actively discussing on ubuntu-devel to turn raring into a rolling release.23:46
