[07:01] <dholbach> good morning
[12:50] <obounaim> Hi
[12:51] <obounaim> What is the difference between "https://merges.ubuntu.com/universe.html" and "https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/saucy/+localpackagediffs"
[12:55] <siretart> obounaim: the mechanism and tools that create them
[20:30] <Noskcaj> slangasek, debian will only take the autoconf patch if they have an explanation of why it exists. Is there one?
[20:31] <slangasek> Noskcaj: not from me; it's not my patch. You'll need to look at the package history
[20:31] <Noskcaj> slangasek, i did, i couldn't find anything other than a changelog entry. I was hoping you'd know.
[20:32] <slangasek> afraid not
[20:32] <slangasek> did you check the bzr history?
[20:32] <Noskcaj> yeah, nothing
[20:36] <slangasek> Noskcaj: so this patch was added back when Scott was actively maintaining libtool, at least if Ubuntu if not in Debian.  But I can't sort out why it was ever needed.  I would suggest dropping the patch and making autoconf a sync.
[20:36] <slangasek> autoreconf already supports autodetecting if libtool is used, and if it's not used I don't see why we care about running libtoolize
[20:37] <Noskcaj> ok. Should i file a sync bug now or wait until the next debian release?
[20:38] <slangasek> Noskcaj: the sync should be done instead of the merge you proposed, AFAICS
[20:38] <Noskcaj> ok, i'll do that later today.
[20:38] <slangasek> cool, thanks
[21:09] <Noskcaj> bug 1214138
