| work_alkisg | Hi, a packaging question please? Packages A, B, and C are not installed on a system, and they all Provide: P. | 06:54 |
|---|---|---|
| work_alkisg | Each of them Depends: on a different package, e.g. a, b, c. Packages a and b are not installed on that system, but package c is. | 06:54 |
| work_alkisg | If I try to install package X, which Depends: P, will apt be smart enough to select the C package that doesn't require additional packages (a or b) to be installed? | 06:54 |

| Zhenech | alkisg, i think not. | 07:25 |
| alkisg | Thank you Zhenech | 07:29 |

| dholbach | hi iulian | 08:41 |
| fr33r1d3 | Q: Best place to start contributing to Ubuntu. Is it Ubuntu Touch? | 08:42 |
| === mitya57_ is now known as mitya57 | ||
| s1aden | fr33r1d3: perhaps there is an programme/application you use, that you have a niggle with and thing could be improved | 09:37 |
| s1aden | fr33r1d3: having a goal makes knowing where to start much easier, as you can research and work towards adding the feature/bug that you want to see | 09:38 |

| micahg | dholbach: no, this new team won't have voting rights, yes, I'll get an icon up there, right now, all uploaders are still in ubuntu-dev anyways | 13:32 |
| dholbach | thanks | 13:32 |
| TheLordOfTime | I can request merges of packages to Trusty from Debian up to when? Feature Freeze? | 18:56 |
| cjwatson | yes. after that it's still possible but will require a consideration of whether there are feature changes; if there are then it would need an exception granted by the release team | 18:58 |
| cjwatson | but up to FF with no paperwork | 18:58 |
| TheLordOfTime | that's what i thought | 18:59 |
| michagogo|cloud | What would need to be done to propose an SRU that essentially removes Bitcoin from the repos for (precise..saucy)? | 19:00 |
| michagogo|cloud | If I understand correctly, while actually removing it is not possible, it would be possible to have an "update" that removes its functionality. | 19:01 |
| michagogo|cloud | !sru | 19:53 |
| ubottu | Stable Release Update information is at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates | 19:53 |

| TheLordOfTime | In general, if I find a patch to fix an FTBFS of something that's in universe that's in the CURRENTDEVRELEASE-proposed repository, how do I get the patch into the system? Open a bug, attach the patch/debdiff, and poke sponsors? Or is it a different method? | 22:14 |
| TheLordOfTime | (where CURRENTDEVRELEASE is ubuntu+1 prior to freezes and such) | 22:14 |
| TheLordOfTime | (i.e. trusty for now) | 22:14 |
| Laney | that is right, where 'poke' is 'subscribe' | 22:14 |
| TheLordOfTime | Laney: i hate it when packages break because GTK 3.10+ causes code to fail and features in the code to be deprecated (case in point, source: wireshark) | 23:39 |
| TheLordOfTime | (this is a tricky FTBFS that i'm trying to get to build, but meh.) | 23:39 |
| TheLordOfTime | (in case yo uwere curious why i'm asking) | 23:40 |
| TheLordOfTime | s/asking/asking about the "fix an ftbfs in develrelease-proposed" thing/ | 23:40 |
