yofelhi, I was trying to create a project on launchpad for libkdcraw, but it tells me that the project name is already taken12:02
yofelhttps://launchpad.net/libkdcraw doesn't exist though12:02
wgrantyofel: You should be able to create it now12:08
yofelok, thanks!12:08
yofelwgrant: https://launchpad.net/ark is another case15:02
Dougie187Is there a way, when listing dependency versions, to provide a series agnostic version number?15:17
Dougie187Like, if I'm building packages with version numbers something like 1.3.1-1ubuntu1ppa1~raring1. How to reference this in a (>= 1.3.1-1) method without adding the raring1 in it.15:27
cjwatsonWell, (>= 1.3.1-1) is greater-than-or-equal, so that's good enough.15:33
cjwatsonDepends exactly what your dependency is supposed to mean.15:33
cjwatsonIf you just want "at least this upstream version", then leave it as "(>= 1.3.1)".15:33
Dougie187Well, I want to try to say something like (= 1.3.1-1ubuntu1ppa1~any)15:41
Dougie187is that possible?15:41
cjwatsonDougie187: Exactly what are you trying to express here?15:54
Dougie187cjwatson: that I want it to use version 1.3.1-1 of the library, but whatever series is available.15:55
Dougie187I'm trying to build packages for static libraries (I didn't write them, so they don't have options for shared libraries)15:55
cjwatsonYou can do "foo (>= 1.3.1-1), foo (<< 1.3.1-1.1)"15:55
Dougie187What's << mean?15:56
cjwatsonBut you should think about why/whether the exact packaging revision is important15:56
cjwatsonLess than15:56
Dougie187ok15:56
cjwatsonSee http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html15:56
cjwatsonYou should also think about whether -1ubuntu1 and -1ubuntu2 (say) might be different15:57
cjwatsonIn which case you'd want "foo (>= 1.3.1-1ubuntu1), foo (<< 1.3.1-1ubuntu2)" or similar15:57
Dougie187Ok15:58
Dougie187Thanks15:58
cjwatsonHowever I'm slightly confused why static libraries mean you need this - usually things built against static libraries don't depend on those libraries at all, because they effectively include a copy of them15:58
Dougie187well, one of them is a static library that is build against another static library15:58
cjwatsonSo library A effectively includes a copy of library B; still no dependency involved there15:59
Dougie187And I wanted to build the package knowing which version of the static library it was built with15:59
cjwatsonThat's not an appropriate use of Depends, if that's all it is15:59
Dougie187Oh ok15:59
cjwatsonThere's a Built-Using field which can be used to document that kind of thing (although nothing in Ubuntu currently pays attention to it)15:59
Dougie187Ok15:59
cjwatsonhttp://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#s-built-using16:00
Dougie187Thanks16:00
Dougie187I have to run now though. But I'll read it when I get back16:00
