| TheLordOfTime | question for the MOTUs, what's the likelihood that a request to add a module to the nginx-naxsi package (to add additional functionality) in Precise would ever get approved? The module isn't critical to operation and just adds nifty naxsi monitoring stuff. | 17:05 |
| TheLordOfTime | trying to get an official "MOTU Opinion" on it, since the "request" came up in a bug | 17:06 |
| TheLordOfTime | if an SRU is verification-failed what happens to the package in the -proposed repository? | 17:53 |
| TheLordOfTime | does it eventually go away? | 17:54 |
| TheLordOfTime | and also, if I prepare a debdiff to fix the package, should I base the fixes off of proposed, and bump from, say, -1ubuntu0.3 (in proposed) to -1ubuntu0.4 (for the new fix), or do i just create another -1ubuntu0.3 debdiff? | 18:13 |
| slava | What is the best way to raise awareness of a silly package bug? | 19:02 |
| ari-tczew | TheLordOfTime: !sru | 19:38 |
| ari-tczew | !sru | 19:38 |
| ubottu | Stable Release Update information is at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates | 19:38 |
| ari-tczew | TheLordOfTime: SRU is generall for bug fixing, no new functions | 19:39 |
| TheLordOfTime | ari-tczew: bdmurray beat you to answering all the questions | 19:39 |
| TheLordOfTime | well, most of them | 19:39 |
| TheLordOfTime | ari-tczew: and yes, i'm aware, general bug fixing, no new functions, hence me wanting to talk to a MOTU... | 19:40 |
| ari-tczew | hm, had I lost of internet connection? | 19:40 |
| TheLordOfTime | because they can give more specific insights on issues such as this - the code for a module exists in NGINX but isn't "compiled" in 1.1.19... | 19:40 |
| TheLordOfTime | the question is whether it should ever be activated based on a "Wishlist" like bug | 19:40 |
| TheLordOfTime | but more importantly... | 19:41 |
| Unit193 | ari-tczew: Crossposting. | 19:41 |
| TheLordOfTime | i have to get this more urgent issue with the package fixed/uploading first | 19:41 |
| TheLordOfTime | ari-tczew: actually, bdmurray answered the general SRU questions, minus the whole issue of the missing module, in -bugs. but yes, as Unit said, generally crossposting-ish | 19:41 |
| TheLordOfTime | (after non-response here for the longest time) | 19:41 |
| ari-tczew | TheLordOfTime: if your bug is fixed in newest ubuntu release, you can request a backport | 19:42 |
| TheLordOfTime | ari-tczew: again, spouting stuff i already know that's not helping | 19:43 |
| TheLordOfTime | so you can stop, and i'll wait for someone on the MOTU team to respond. | 19:43 |
| * TheLordOfTime goes back to poking bugs because they need urgent fixes | 19:44 | |
| ari-tczew | TheLordOfTime: ouh, of course, I should not speak, sorry | 19:47 |
| TheLordOfTime | ari-tczew: sorry if I seem like an ass, but as I just told you in priv, the issue isn't backport-worthy for this case, and one bug's status of existing as a bug is in question | 19:47 |
| TheLordOfTime | hence me seeking MOTU guidance on the issue, so i really apologize if i seem hostile, but i'm a tad... swamped is a good word for it | 19:48 |
| * TheLordOfTime has 10 nginx bugfixes lined up o.O | 19:48 | |
| ari-tczew | TheLordOfTime: after given link, I'd follow to answering, but then I saw you've already spoken @ another channel | 19:50 |
| TheLordOfTime | ari-tczew: ehhh, there's a lot of crap i've got going on... one's an SRU that needs fixing to remove a FailToInstallAfterPurge issue... | 19:51 |
| ari-tczew | so it's not so good to see that for you it's important if person is in MOTU or not | 19:51 |
| TheLordOfTime | ari-tczew: i'm swamped, that's the problem | 19:51 |
| TheLordOfTime | over-stressed is of course the other issue | 19:51 |
| TheLordOfTime | I'm aware what an SRU is, I'm aware what backports are for, but neither seem to fit the issue | 19:52 |
| TheLordOfTime | short of someone who can literally overrule anything saying "This isn't going to ever be able to be fixed because it's already a released version of Ubuntu" i've got three people arguing in email saying it should be added/included | 19:52 |
| TheLordOfTime | and me saying "I can't make that call." | 19:52 |
| TheLordOfTime | on top of that, i've got a bunch of other bugfixes I have to commit... o.o | 19:53 |
| TheLordOfTime | so i'm a tad swamped and stressed, so whether I need a MOTU or not, i'm stuck with people arguing with me in email that is adding to the stress | 19:53 |
| mike321 | hello, is there anyone who can update the package "dooble" ? it is from 2006 version 0.02 and now there is version 1.45 soon 2014. this is 6 years!! http://dooble.sf.net | 19:53 |
| TheLordOfTime | ari-tczew: so someone at the top of the food chain who c | 19:53 |
| TheLordOfTime | an actually make a decisive call on it is the only real way i can get people to shut up via the emails | 19:53 |
| mike321 | https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dooble The package should have in the end the name " Dooble Web Browser" | 19:54 |
| TheLordOfTime | ... stupid computer... | 19:54 |
| mike321 | the maintainer michal zajc told me to ask here | 19:54 |
| mike321 | is anyone able to do this? | 19:54 |
| mike321 | what needs to be done to get this updated? | 19:54 |
| mike321 | version 0,02 to version 1.45 is more than 80 version updates | 19:55 |
| TheLordOfTime | ari-tczew: short of THAT, i'm going to continue to get emails about this, and likely am going to have to drop those people from emails. | 19:55 |
| ari-tczew | TheLordOfTime: maybe you should consider to learn handling with your stress? | 19:56 |
| TheLordOfTime | ari-tczew: and that's kinda bad form for a pseudo-unofficial maintainer of a package | 19:56 |
| TheLordOfTime | // | 19:56 |
| lenios | mike321, rebuild the package, test it, and put it on a ppa would be a good start | 19:56 |
| mike321 | i cannot do this | 19:56 |
| lenios | why? | 19:57 |
| mike321 | never dont hsi, i have not the skill | 19:57 |
| Noskcaj | mike321, some time next cycle i'll try and update it. Please file a bug asking for the update | 19:58 |
| lenios | debian has dooble 0.7.0 packaged | 19:59 |
| mike321 | where tol fill the bug ? I tried to do this 2 years ago already | 19:59 |
| mike321 | that is 002 | 19:59 |
| mike321 | ok 007 | 19:59 |
| mike321 | can you give me your email so that we can talk about it? | 19:59 |
| ari-tczew | mike321: on launchpad, against that package | 19:59 |
| mike321 | i can compile it on windows and give you some help or support maybe | 20:00 |
| lenios | the official page of the dooble project says current version is 0.7.0 : http://grothoff.org/christian/doodle/ | 20:00 |
| lenios | which is from january 2010, and latest svn has no special news after that (only translation fixes, and default verbosity changed) | 20:02 |
| mike321 | lol, it is not doodle | 20:04 |
| mike321 | it is dooble | 20:04 |
| mike321 | https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dooble | 20:04 |
| lenios | oh wait, how did i end up there | 20:06 |
| lenios | i mistyped, i guess, but debian has 0.7.0 | 20:07 |
| slava | The is a bug filed for ebolution-mapi package which has been marked as incomplete which is inaccurate. In order to properly work with Exchange 2007+, python-samba has to be installed. The bug link is https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evolution-mapi/+bug/1165913 | 20:08 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu bug 1165913 in evolution-mapi (Ubuntu) "missing required dependency python-samba" [Undecided,Incomplete] | 20:08 |
| lenios | oh, got it, that's actually google who gave me the wrong result | 20:08 |
| lenios | there is actually no debian package | 20:09 |
| lenios | but to repay myself, i can help you package the latest 1.45 version | 20:10 |
| mike321 | thats good, noskaj will try it too, but help is helpless for me, I cannot do that and will not learn it, it is true.. unfortunately. so my request needs someone caring fro the process | 20:12 |
| lenios | i mean, i'll try to build it | 20:13 |
| mike321 | good | 20:13 |
| mike321 | i can support you | 20:13 |
| mike321 | as i did that for windows | 20:13 |
| Noskcaj | someone already made the bug at bug 1066504 | 20:15 |
| ubottu | bug 1066504 in dooble (Ubuntu) "it's now version 1.36" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1066504 | 20:15 |
| lenios | would be good to get it on debian | 20:17 |
| lenios | do you know someone who can help sponsor it? that would really help | 20:18 |
| lenios | i'm also looking for a sponsor for a phabricator package (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=723804) , with no news... | 20:19 |
| ubottu | Debian bug 723804 in sponsorship-requests "RFS: phabricator/0.1~git20130909-1 [ITP]" [Wishlist,Open] | 20:19 |
| mike321 | the bug was from me years ago | 20:21 |
| mike321 | i dont know any sponsors | 20:21 |
| lenios | i was talking to Noskcaj | 20:22 |
| lenios | a new version can be packaged for ubuntu without sponsor | 20:23 |
| Noskcaj | lenios, I'm not a debian developer, but i'll see what needs fixing for that to get uploaded | 20:23 |
| lfaraone | lenios: I'd be interested in sponsoring to get Phabricator in the archive. | 20:29 |
| lenios | that's great | 20:29 |
| lfaraone | However, you'd want to use a version like 0~gitNNNNNN-1; what if they make their first release "0.0.1"? | 20:29 |
| Noskcaj | lenios, It's probably better to wait for an official tarball to be released, since that should fix a few of the issues. And add adding an empty debian/watch file is pretty simple | 20:29 |
| Noskcaj | Normally 0.0~ is used when uploading to debian | 20:30 |
| lenios | there are a few warnings i can fix, but it should be ok | 20:30 |
| lenios | there is no official tarball, and i don't know when or even if they will release it | 20:30 |
| lenios | so we need a way to package it until that happens | 20:31 |
| lenios | oh, you mean 0.0 instead of 0.1 | 20:31 |
| Noskcaj | yeah | 20:31 |
| lenios | i'll change that | 20:31 |
| lfaraone | lenios: review sent. | 20:51 |
| lenios | thanks | 20:53 |
