infinityxnox: Assuming the script was a direct copy and paste (I didn't look for byte-for-byte compat), it all looked sane, except for the changelog being wrong. :)02:32
xnoxinfinity: yeah, reading back the changelog makes perfect sense.... when translated into russian.09:16
infinityxnox: The Russian word for "driver" is "firmware"?09:18
* infinity will try to remember this the next time he needs to hire a car in Moscow.09:18
xnoxinfinity: if you speak English it's triple the price for everything in Moscow.09:21
xnox=)09:21
infinityI'm too old to learn a new language, I should probably just avoid Moscow instead.09:25
infinityAnd maybe nap.09:25
xnox=)09:25
xnoxinfinity: or take someone russian speaking as a guide with you. It should be easy to find russians anywhere.09:26
infinityIs there, like, a shop where I can pick up a Russian?  Do they come with care and feeding instructions?09:26
xnoxinfinity: yeah, check your email spam folder I'm sure they have been emailing you already =)09:40

cjwatsonxnox: I posted review comments on https://code.launchpad.net/~xnox/hw-detect/fix-firmware-order/+merge/181886.  Can you take care of implementing those or are you out of time?14:22
xnoxcjwatson: good point, I think that's all the case in the new patch against debian-git, which I was sending the review via pastebin. Let me update the merge proposal in launchpad, such that the history & comments & code are all in one place.14:31
cjwatsonI merged hw-detect too, it's sitting UNRELEASED in bzr14:38
xnoxok.14:41
xnoxcjwatson: update merge-proposal, It's a merge of both yours and infinity's concerns. So install-firmware stays the same, but also enabled nonfree if there are driver-inject debs.14:53
xnoxcjwatson: and driver-inject debs are installed at pre-pkgsel.d time.14:53
cjwatsonI don't think it should stay the same - it should have the .deb installation removed from it if you're doing that somewhere else14:53
xnoxcjwatson: thus driver-injection debs does use a different location from firmware debs.14:53
cjwatsonand I don't agree with infinity's suggestion to duplicate the code - I think that's unnecessary14:53
xnoxcjwatson: this is aimed for an sru, so you are ok changing the behaviour of /var/cache/firmware/ in precise? (e.g. installing later than before?!)14:54
cjwatsonbasically the same concerns apply to the output of check-missing-firmware.sh and driver-injection-disk.sh IMO14:54
cjwatsonor at least nobody's persuaded me otherwise yet14:55
cjwatsonso I rather suspect that the behaviour of /var/cache/firmware/ didn't necessarily work properly before anyway14:56
cjwatsonmaybe we got away with it because firmware packages typically have only trivial dependencies14:56
cjwatsonbut yes, I'm OK with changing that behaviour14:56
xnoxwith driver-injection-disk we established that there are no injections-disks in use for ubuntu/debian at the moment, so we are sure of not breaking anything.14:57
xnoxno idea about /var/cache/firmware usage.14:58
cjwatsonI'm not too worried15:04
xnoxcjwatson: ok. i'll not be able to look into it today, but will update the merge proposal tomorrow.17:34
cjwatsonxnox: thanks18:44
cjwatsonxnox: (and thanks for dealing with it while I was on vacation so I could have a nice warm "Dmitrijs is sorting this out" feeling when I saw it in my pile of mail)18:45
xnoxcjwatson: well, sorting out, but wasn't sorted.18:46
xnoxat least calxeda is unblocked i think, and probably should be promoted to -updates pocket in raring.18:47
infinityA lot more needs to happen to unblock Calxeda than just the libdi change, I suspect.19:03
infinityBut that's a start.19:03
infinityxnox: Also, not going to promote that until we can actually test it, which means landing more bits.19:05
xnoxinfinity: ok. well 'unblocked' was accurate then.19:25
