[02:32] <infinity> xnox: 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. :)
[09:16] <xnox> infinity: yeah, reading back the changelog makes perfect sense.... when translated into russian.
[09:18] <infinity> xnox: 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.
[09:21] <xnox> infinity: if you speak English it's triple the price for everything in Moscow.
[09:21] <xnox> =)
[09:25] <infinity> I'm too old to learn a new language, I should probably just avoid Moscow instead.
[09:25] <infinity> And maybe nap.
[09:25] <xnox> =)
[09:26] <xnox> infinity: or take someone russian speaking as a guide with you. It should be easy to find russians anywhere.
[09:26] <infinity> Is there, like, a shop where I can pick up a Russian?  Do they come with care and feeding instructions?
[09:40] <xnox> infinity: yeah, check your email spam folder I'm sure they have been emailing you already =)
[14:22] <cjwatson> xnox: 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?
[14:31] <xnox> cjwatson: 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.
[14:38] <cjwatson> I merged hw-detect too, it's sitting UNRELEASED in bzr
[14:41] <xnox> ok.
[14:53] <xnox> cjwatson: 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] <xnox> cjwatson: and driver-inject debs are installed at pre-pkgsel.d time.
[14:53] <cjwatson> I don't think it should stay the same - it should have the .deb installation removed from it if you're doing that somewhere else
[14:53] <xnox> cjwatson: thus driver-injection debs does use a different location from firmware debs.
[14:53] <cjwatson> and I don't agree with infinity's suggestion to duplicate the code - I think that's unnecessary
[14:54] <xnox> cjwatson: 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] <cjwatson> basically the same concerns apply to the output of check-missing-firmware.sh and driver-injection-disk.sh IMO
[14:55] <cjwatson> or at least nobody's persuaded me otherwise yet
[14:56] <cjwatson> so I rather suspect that the behaviour of /var/cache/firmware/ didn't necessarily work properly before anyway
[14:56] <cjwatson> maybe we got away with it because firmware packages typically have only trivial dependencies
[14:56] <cjwatson> but yes, I'm OK with changing that behaviour
[14:57] <xnox> with 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.
[14:58] <xnox> no idea about /var/cache/firmware usage.
[15:04] <cjwatson> I'm not too worried
[17:34] <xnox> cjwatson: ok. i'll not be able to look into it today, but will update the merge proposal tomorrow.
[18:44] <cjwatson> xnox: thanks
[18:45] <cjwatson> xnox: (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)
[18:46] <xnox> cjwatson: well, sorting out, but wasn't sorted.
[18:47] <xnox> at least calxeda is unblocked i think, and probably should be promoted to -updates pocket in raring.
[19:03] <infinity> A lot more needs to happen to unblock Calxeda than just the libdi change, I suspect.
[19:03] <infinity> But that's a start.
[19:05] <infinity> xnox: Also, not going to promote that until we can actually test it, which means landing more bits.
[19:25] <xnox> infinity: ok. well 'unblocked' was accurate then.
