seb128tvoss, hey08:31
tvossseb128, good morning :) quick question: how can I find out if a fix to a debian package has propagated to ubuntu?08:31
tvossseb128, bug and fix in question are here: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=70177908:31
ubottuDebian bug 701779 in lttng-tools "Fails to install due to missing library (in dependency?)" [Grave,Fixed]08:31
tvossseb128, happy to look myself if you can give me some pointers :)08:36
=== amitk-afk is now known as amitk
seb128tvoss, good morning to you too, sorry was away some minutes08:41
tvossseb128, welcome back then :)08:42
seb128tvoss, there is no easy "is that debian bug fixed in ubuntu" check, basically look at the debian bug and what version of the package fixed the issue and look at what is in ubuntu08:42
seb128tvoss, or "pull-lp-source <source> raring" and look at the content of the package08:42
tvossseb128, ubuntu is quite outdated when compared to debian :/08:43
seb128tvoss, it means nobody merged that one on debian or synced it08:44
tvossseb128, just found a ppa, hold on08:45
tjaaltonit could probably be synced at this point08:47
tjaaltonnew upstream pushed to ubuntu last summer08:47
tjaaltonnot touched since08:47
gesertvoss: it got removed in the past (during precise development), see the deletion comment at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ltt-control/+publishinghistory (expand the first entry)08:49
tvossgeser, agreed for the ltt-control package, but seems like lttng-tools suffer the same issue, looking at that right now and testing the lttng ppa08:50
tjaaltoncan't it just be synced now? new lttng-tools builds ltt-control08:51
gesertjaalton: does it work now? and someone has to fix the FTBFS first08:52
tjaaltonftbfs?08:52
gesersee https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=ltt-control&arch=i386&ver=2.1.1-1&stamp=136209602708:53
tjaaltonoh, good point :)08:53
tjaaltondidn't know that08:54
gesertvoss: lttng-tools are build from the ltt-control source package08:54
tvossgeser, the ppa works, just tested on raring08:55
tjaaltonyeah I got those wrong, was the other way around08:55
mptslangasek, update-manager should certainly never update a package without listing it. That would be a bug, not a design flaw.08:58
gesertvoss: once someone fixes Debian bug #701976 (either directly in Debian or a patched package for sponsoring) and a FF exception is granted (we are past Feature Freeze) then it could get into raring09:03

mitya57Hi Riddell, you know that qtwebkit-sources 2.3.0 is stuck in -proposed, right?14:58
mitya57if we can't fix that, maybe it'll be a good idea to force-copy it to -release14:58
cjwatsondoesn't look like it should be horribly difficult to fix?15:00
Riddellmitya57, cjwatson: needs working out the magic to make it stop trying to compile that javascript engine on powerpc, I'll ask again about it but I'm not wanting to spend much time on powerpc issues15:02
cjwatsonwell I can hack on it on Adam's fast powerpc system given a general pointer15:03
mitya57Is it the same javascript engine that 4 previous uploads were trying to disable?15:03
cjwatsonI mean it only takes 20 minutes to fail on adare (which is ancient)15:04
mitya57:D15:05
Riddellmitya57: that's the one15:07
mitya57Weird. As 2.3-0ubuntu8 doesn't have powerpc packages built, forcibly copying the new version shouldn't break anything, so I think it should be done.15:10
mitya57... while we are not frozen15:11
cjwatsonit might not break but I always prefer to try to fix things first15:12
cjwatson(also, even if it comes to that, archive admins should never forcibly copy to raring but should use britney hints instead)15:13
mitya57I meant something like that, yes.15:13
cjwatsonand should always use the minimum possible force so that we find out about problems they might not have thought of15:14
infinityapw: I'm on vacation all week, but I'd suggest getting Colin's input on that bug.15:15

qenghoHi hi.  I have a problem.  In raring we want users of (chromium-browser + unity) to automatically have webaccounts-chromium-extension and unity-chromium-extension installed.  But, those packages Depend on lots of things that users of things other than unity do not need, so a Recommends in chromium-browser might pull in a lot of stuff that's unwanted.  What's the best way to get packages installed for unity + chromium-browser users, but not necessarily15:53
qengho others?15:53
slangasekmpt: then we agree ;)15:55
mptyep15:55
xnoxqengho: there is no easy way. Are the extensions by them self small? I'd recommend to install the chromium extenstions by default with unity, but they'd do nothing unless people install chromium browser.15:55
xnoxE.g. treat those extenstions to be part of unity =)15:56
infinityThat's probably the only way to achieve what you want, yes.15:57
infinityOf course, then they'd need to drop the depends on chromium.15:57
qenghoRight.  Move that to Enhances?15:57
infinityAnd we'd have to make sure they get registered with chromium regardless of installation order.15:57
qenghoOrder doesn't matter, already.15:58
infinityKay, then yeah, move the Depends to an Enhances, and then pull them into the desktop seed or something.15:58
infinityIt's an unfortunate bit of cruft on non-chromium desktops, but there's no good way to express the "if foo and bar are installed, I also want baz" relationship.15:59
infinityWell, there are ways to *express* it (like Enhances), but there are no ways to *enforce* it.16:00
qenghoMaybe a mutual Suggests and Enhances could be as weighty as a Recommends.16:01
infinitySomething tricky like that could work, if you feel the urge to bring it up with debian-devel and policy types.  Certainly not a good quick fix. :P16:02
infinityRiddell: Fairly sure my test build is already past the point of the last failure.  I'll let it carry on to completion, though.16:08

hallyninfinity: so i have a set of 5 source packages (mirroring the analogous powerpc ones mostly) at https://launchpad.net/~serge-hallyn/+archive/crossc/+packages which build a openbios-sparc, with which i can run qemu-system-sparc as sparcstation 10 target, and boot debian images.20:03
hallyni assume it's too late in raring cycle to try getting those in?20:03
infinityhallyn: Being entirely new packages, if they're based on the same sources as the PPC ones, it's probably not a big deal to get them in.20:04
infinityhallyn: But, it's much harder to justify yet another cross-compiler for an arch we don't even ship.20:04
hallynok - i suppose they can sit in ppa for now, for anyone who really really needs it.20:05
hallynwhen s opens up, who do you think would be the right person to look at them for sanity check and maybe sponsor?20:05
infinityhallyn: I can have a look at them.  If they're based on the arm{el,hf,64} and powerpc packages, a simple debdiff should show their relative sanity.20:06
hallyninfinity: cool, thanks.  I'll leave a note to talk to you then20:07
infinityhallyn: Well, per the above, I don't think it's "too late".  It's more about if we want them at all, now so much when.20:08
hallyninfinity: oh.  i thought you meant we didn't want to deal with them now for that reason (i.e. priorities)20:09
hallynI suppose we could go the squeeky wheel principle and wait to see if bugs are raised about openbios-sparc not existing20:09
infinityhallyn: I think the only bugs that have ever been filed have been from developers who were annoyed that it couldn't be built, not from users who needed full system sparc emulation on Ubuntu.20:10
