ffioare their any videos for leanring ubuntu packaging ?07:57
RhondaThere are wiki pages about it.  Not sure if dholbach (or someone else) did some packaging tutorial video07:58
Noskcajffio, some old ones from dholbach, it think there's others07:58
Noskcajif you have questions, we're more than willing to help07:59
ffioRhonda: i followed wiki, but it would be good to see some video tutorials to get more better understanding.07:59
ffioNoskcaj: thanks you so much :)07:59
dholbachthe video are quite old07:59
dholbachdeveloper.ubuntu.com/packaging/ is probably a better start07:59
ffiodholbach: currently i am following the same link.08:00
dholbachcool08:00
dholbachI won't have time for quite a while to update any videos08:00
ffiodholbach: would be useful to watch the videos ? as they are old ?08:01
dholbachprobably not too much08:01
ffiook08:01
Noskcajffio, A good place to start is the MoM. it's at merges.ubuntu.com08:03
ffioi read the wiki, but i can't get what  a .dsc file is . it's a meta file which contains dependencies related info right ?08:03
NoskcajAnd reviewing debian mentors packages is another good way08:03
Noskcajffio, pretty much08:03
ffioNoskcaj: :)08:05
ffiook doing up thing practically now as i have setup testdrive and downloaded the iso.08:07
ffiodeveloper.ubuntu.com/packaging/html/fixing-a-bug-example.html#documenting-the-fix08:08
ffio^ in the above link i was not able to get what the notation08:09
ffioi.e. before debian/control: added projet's homepage why * sign is there ?08:09
Noskcajffio, it's a way of listing things08:09
NoskcajAnd yay, testdrive08:10
ffioit's automatically created ? or just shown to make it understand.08:10
NoskcajYou write it like that08:10
ffiook :)08:10
ffioand before Peggy Sue there is -- sign ? what does that mean ?08:11
ffiobecause all the content is added so they all have + sign in front of them. but can't get why -- sign is there after +08:11

ffioneed to go for diff tutorial too08:13
geserffio: the -- is part of the format how changelog entries look like (it's the final line with the author and a timestamp)08:14
ffiogeser: yeah ok got it :)08:15
geserffio: usually dch takes care of the format, you just have to document the changes you have done (the bullet(*) points)08:16
ffiook :)08:16
geserthe bzr diff output is just for checking if the changes are those you really intended08:16
ffiook just to check wether the changes that were made were what we intended or not.08:17
ffios/were/we08:18
geserexactly08:18
ffio:)08:18
gesersometimes you realize while testing that more changes are needed (and can check that way that the final diff has them all) or you have to redo your fix because it didn't work as assumed (and check that the final diff has no parts left from a previous attempt)08:21
ffiogoing bit overhead.08:28
ffiodoing it practically will make me things understand more better08:28
Noskcajffio, yeah. tip: once you get everything worked out, go back and fix everything you did while learning08:29
ffioNoskcaj: you mean to revert back all the changes i made ?08:30
Noskcajffio, no, you will realise you did stuff wrong, trust me08:30
ffioNoskcaj: ok :)08:30
* Noskcaj just got his first package into debian. celebrates.08:31
* ffio congratulate Noskcaj :D08:31
Noskcaj:)08:31
