| kotux | hello, I have a package ready to submit | 01:51 |
|---|---|---|
| kotux | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1210704 | 01:52 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1210704 in Ubuntu "pylang needs packaging" [Undecided,In progress] | 01:52 |
| kotux | I would like to know what I must upload. | 01:52 |
| asomething | kotux, you have a few options: a link to a PPA with a package to review, a bzr branch of the packaging and a link to the orig.tar.gz | 01:57 |
| kotux | hi asomething. I originally ran 'bzr commit -m "foo"' from the source directory. Now, I just push the orig.tar.gz? | 01:59 |
| kotux | What about the five other files? | 01:59 |
| asomething | your sponsor will have to rebuild the package to review it. the changes file, dsc file, and the debian.tar.gz till get regenerated | 02:01 |
| asomething | s/till/will/ | 02:02 |
| Noskcaj | kotux, remember to put it into debian if possible too | 02:05 |
| kotux | Hi Nokscaj, I will probably do it through both debian and ubuntu | 02:05 |
| kotux | should I do debian first, or is it ok to do ubuntu first? | 02:05 |
| asomething | if you go through debian first, it will be automatically synced to ubuntu in the start of the next development cycle | 02:06 |
| kotux | wow, that's convenient. Then what's the point of going through ubuntu first? | 02:06 |
| asomething | kotux, in most cases you shouldn't | 02:07 |
| kotux | thanks for the tip. how does the motu aid in this process then? | 02:07 |
| kotux | I should go through the mentors process, correct? | 02:07 |
| asomething | there are some packages that rely on ubuntu specific things, that's most usual reason to go directly into ubuntu | 02:08 |
| porthose | kotux I would suggest going through debian PAPT https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/PythonAppsPackagingTeam | 02:08 |
| kotux | hey porthose, thanks. | 02:08 |
| asomething | it is *much* easier to get a package sponsored in Debian if there is a team that is a good fit | 02:09 |
| kotux | Rather than going through mentors, I should just join that group and ask for sponsorship there? | 02:10 |
| Noskcaj | kotux, MOTU exists for specific ubuntu changes and packaging things that debian can't/won't | 02:10 |
| Noskcaj | kotux, put package in mentors with team as maintainer, you as uploader, then ask the team | 02:11 |
| kotux | alright. | 02:11 |
| asomething | you'd still upload to debian.mentors.net but ask for a sponsor on the python apps team's list | 02:11 |
| Noskcaj | +1 | 02:11 |
| asomething | http://mentors.debian.net/intro-maintainers | 02:12 |
| kotux | Awesome, thanks for all the help. | 02:12 |
| kotux | Just for show, here's my finished packgae. | 02:12 |
| kotux | http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~kotux/+junk/pylang-package/files | 02:12 |
| Noskcaj | tip: Get the packages a close to lintian clean as possible and with good copyright stuff before you upload | 02:13 |
| kotux | One more thing before I go: is an orig.tar.gz file the only thing they need to see from me? | 02:13 |
| kotux | Noskcaj, it's lintian error-free. ;-) | 02:13 |
| Noskcaj | even the --pedantic ones? | 02:14 |
| kotux | yes | 02:14 |
| Noskcaj | good work | 02:14 |
| Noskcaj | and no, you will use dput to upload everything | 02:14 |
| smartboyhw | Tip: Make sure you fill in the copyrigh properly | 02:16 |
| kotux | smartboyhw, it's all good. | 02:17 |
| porthose | kotux, make sure you have a working watch file also | 02:18 |
| kotux | what's that? | 02:18 |
| smartboyhw | Hmm, that's a problem if you don't know:P | 02:18 |
| smartboyhw | debian/watch | 02:18 |
| Noskcaj | a two line file that makes maintenance so much easier | 02:19 |
| smartboyhw | Used to track new releases from upstream | 02:19 |
| Unit193 | uscan is pretty great. | 02:19 |
| kotux | ok, thanks. | 02:20 |

| Rhonda | Laney: Where are though! | 15:24 |

| Laney | Rhonda: just arrived at hotel | 17:25 |
| Laney | (not staying at le camp) | 17:26 |
| Laney | will be along tomorrow morning | 17:26 |
| stgraber | Laney: so do you need me to bring you a power cable along in the end? | 17:36 |
| Laney | stgraber: my adaptor works at the hotel | 17:37 |
| Laney | also, steve said he was bringing spares so should be fine | 17:37 |
| stgraber | ok | 17:37 |
| Laney | further also, would have been a figure 8 which I don't think you said you have :P | 17:38 |
| stgraber | Laney: ah, if that's a c7/c8 (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/32/IEC_60320_C7.svg/100px-IEC_60320_C7.svg.png) then your french adapter will work fine as it's not grounded | 17:39 |
| stgraber | ungrounded european/french plugs are compatible, the problem is the grounding pin which tends to differ quite widely between france, germany and switzerland (to take the 3 variants I'm aware of) | 17:40 |
| Laney | ah, yeah, there's no grounding pin on it | 17:42 |
| Laney | 303 upgraded, 12 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. | 17:44 |
| Laney | Need to get 418 MB of archives. | 17:44 |
| Laney | after a week - not enough - try harder :P | 17:45 |
| stgraber | ;) | 17:45 |
| * Laney sees some interesting stuff | 17:46 | |
