Guest89396Hi everyone02:49
Noskcajhey Guest8939602:52
Guest89396I'm a Computer Science student, interested in contributing to Ubuntu, currently reading this https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ContributeToUbuntu Haven't used IRC before so was just checking it works02:53
Guest89396which is does, thanks @Noskcaj02:53
Noskcajno problem. It's great to have another new contributor. Try and have irc online as much as possible, since it makes it easier to contact you, and more people will recognize you.02:54

mitya57cjwatson: What was wrong with Debian version of python-qt4? I saw you changed something, but then wgrant_ reverted that.15:06
xnoxmitya57: i think this is all influx trying to support multiple python 3 versions at the same time. As at the moment work is underway to enable 3.4 and 3.3 both as supported versions. 3.3 still the default at hte moment.16:06
xnoxmitya57: some of the things are fixed by latest python3.4 upload https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python3.4/3.4~b1-4ubuntu5 which still needs python3-defaults rebuild.16:07
mitya57xnox: the Debian version of pyqt4 should build fine for multiple python3 versions (that worked in 3.2/3.3 times), but it looks like cjwatson didn't like something16:09
xnoxmitya57: nobody denies that it builds =) it didn't provide correct pyqtconfig, and thus pykde4 was FTBFS with not able to find/import pyqtconfig. That's as much as I know. Let me look up FTBFS build logs, if not cobbled over.16:10
mitya57That's a bit more helpful, then why was it reverted?16:10
xnoxmitya57: i think buildlogs got overriden, but there is another upload of pykde4 to fix 3.3&3.4 compat.16:11
xnoxhttp://launchpadlibrarian.net/161093392/pykde4_4%3A4.12.0-0ubuntu1_4%3A4.12.0-0ubuntu2.diff.gz16:11
xnoxnot sure why wgrant_ is removing ABITAG renaming =/16:12
xnox... unless that is done elsewhere / later.16:12
xnoxnah, looks like everything is properly abitagged in the debs.16:13
cjwatsonmitya57: wgrant didn't revert it, he fixed it harder16:14
mitya57My main question is whether I should include cjwatson's changes in Debian or not16:14
mitya57cjwatson: no, it is a revert16:15
mitya57The current d/rules in Ubuntu and Debian are equivalent16:15
cjwatsonmitya57: I beg to differ, I've read the change and it isn't16:15
cjwatsonhttps://launchpadlibrarian.net/161093392/pykde4_4%3A4.12.0-0ubuntu1_4%3A4.12.0-0ubuntu2.diff.gz is not a revert of anything I did16:15
cjwatsoner whoops that's pykde4, let me recheck16:15
cjwatsonhuh, so it is.  perhaps I made a mistake then, sorry16:17
cjwatsonI initially tried to get it to build with the new python-defaults and it failed, but I no longer have the log16:17
cjwatsonmitya57: So I guess pretend that never happened and we can sync over it next time16:18
cjwatsonsorry for the confusion16:18
mitya57cjwatson: ok, thanks16:18
cjwatsonI probably got confused at some point in the six-hour build time on my laptop :-/16:20

xnoxcjwatson: mitya57: i think it's relevant that python-defaults & python3.4 had fixes in the mean time. E.g. it used to be correct to patch the way cjwatson did, until python-defaults/python3.4 got re-fixed.17:21
mitya57You mean python3-defaults17:23
