NoskcajHow do i tell why the bzr branch of a debian package hasn't updated? videocut in this case00:39
slangasekNoskcaj: http://package-import.ubuntu.com/status/00:48
Noskcajthanks00:49
slangasekthat page doesn't show any problems with videocut, though00:51
Noskcajslangasek, strange. the two latest debian releases aren't in bzr00:55
slangasekhmm, quite00:56
slangasekhow long ago was -13 uploaded?00:56
Noskcajseptember 2nd00:59
slangasekhmm00:59
slangasekcan you file a bug against the udd project about this?00:59
NoskcajI'm not sure what to do, where, and i haven't checked the package import myself. but i'll try once i've had lunch01:00
xnoxslangasek: Noskcaj: https://launchpad.net/debian/+source/videocut doesn't know about -13 and -14 uploads. So i'd take it up with AA, e.g. cjwatson can check via videocut didn't sync.01:42
xnoxand udd, only takes stuff that launchpad has imported.01:42

Noskcajok, thanks01:43
mitya57German text in videocut's 02-desktop-keywords.diff looks suspicious to me06:42

Noskcajstokachu, Do you plan to merge keepalived? If not, i could do it08:09
Noskcaj(i think)08:09
Noskcajkirkland, roaksoax: I've made some progress on testdrive in debian, some DDs are willing to take a look. Could one of you try and fix up the manpage(s)?08:49

brainwashso apparently nobody is able to resolve bug 1183580, why not simply distribute a working version of that library if it's not possible to build it properly?10:28

Ampelbeinbrainwash: Because Ubuntu can't just distribute binaries that were built on Debian. It may or may not work currently, but there is no guarantee that it will work in the future.10:46

Ampelbeinbrainwash: For starters, this bug should have been reported to the developers of the software10:47
brainwashAmpelbein: the devs? who would that be?10:49
Ampelbeinbrainwash: According to the Homepage: field in debian/control: http://rusxmms.sourceforge.net/10:49
brainwashbut there is nothing wrong with the debian package10:50
Ampelbeinbrainwash: The build environment in Ubuntu is different from Debian10:50
AmpelbeinAnd if I were the developer, I sure would want to know that my software doesn't work when compiled in Ubunut.10:51
brainwashsome might say it's ubuntu's fault10:52
brainwashand not care about this10:52
AmpelbeinThey are free to say what they want.10:52
AmpelbeinIf the developers are saying that they don't care, Ubuntu would be better off removing the software from the repository.10:54
brainwashthe package maintainer should make sure that the package isn't broken10:54
AmpelbeinYes, but apparently no-one from MOTU/Ubuntu-Dev uses this particular software.10:56
AmpelbeinSo there isn't really a package maintainer in Ubuntu.10:56
AmpelbeinI'm not disputing the fact that there is a bug in the package, btw. I'm just saying that it would help to notify the developers of this bug so they can possibly provide a fix.10:57
brainwashright, first we would need to test the latest upstream release I assume10:58
AmpelbeinComment 12 indicates that the new upstream fixes the problem10:58
brainwashmaybe someone could build a new package, so we can test it in trusty and backport then11:00
Ampelbeinlet me try11:05
brainwashAmpelbein: thanks :)11:11
=== freeflying is now known as freeflying_away
Ampelbeinbrainwash: I think I've identified the patch fixing the problem: http://paste.ubuntu.com/6431321/11:26
Ampelbeinbrainwash: I'll upload a package to my ppa, would you be available to test the resulting package?11:27
brainwashAmpelbein: sure11:32
Ampelbeinbrainwash: https://launchpad.net/~amoog/+archive/ppa will have saucy and trusty packages in about an hour (according to the build start estimate)11:34
brainwashAmpelbein: alright11:37
=== freeflying_away is now known as freeflying
brainwashAmpelbein: your package does fix the segfault (trusty), good work :)12:41
brainwashAmpelbein: do you plan to write the SRU request for bug 1183580?20:22
ubottubug 1183580 in librcc (Ubuntu) "librcc segfaults on latest saucy" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/118358020:22
Ampelbeinbrainwash: It's on my agenda20:23
brainwashAmpelbein: ok, thanks :)20:23
AmpelbeinBut if you want to do it, I'm not stopping you ;)20:23
AmpelbeinNote however that the package first needs to get sponsored in trusty20:23
brainwashhaven't done something like this yet, so I don't want to mess up20:23
brainwashright20:23
NoskcajCan someone please merge gnome-control-center? the package rygel can be synced one 3.8 is in trusty21:07
TheMuso`doko: Previous versions of libdotconf didn't have a soname, and the new upstream maintainer fixed it.21:20
