| MichaelTunnell | hello, I submitted a bug in my package regarding the repo version but I have no received an update except from a bot turning it to "confirmed". | 01:15 |
| MichaelTunnell | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/uget/+bug/1278233 | 01:16 |
| ubot2` | Launchpad bug 1278233 in uget (Ubuntu) "Update uGet for 14.04 Trusty Tahr (needs libappindicator)" [Undecided,Confirmed] | 01:16 |
| MichaelTunnell | the same bug was reported in October of last year for an older package but no one (who could fix it) commented on it then either. | 01:17 |
| MichaelTunnell | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/uget/+bug/1246697 | 01:17 |
| ubot2` | Launchpad bug 1246697 in uget (Ubuntu) "Uget tray icon not showing" [Undecided,Confirmed] | 01:17 |
| MichaelTunnell | the same bug was already reported 2 years ago. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/uget/+bug/925137 | 01:18 |
| ubot2` | Launchpad bug 925137 in uget (Ubuntu) "uGet not built with AppIndicator support" [Wishlist,Confirmed] | 01:18 |
| MichaelTunnell | so can I please get someone to help me fix the package? | 01:18 |
| TJ- | You should contact the package maintainer | 01:19 |
| MichaelTunnell | I did. He is the Debian guy for the package but he hasn't responded about it either | 01:20 |
| MichaelTunnell | all I need is to make it build with libappindicator...that's it | 01:20 |
| TJ- | Well it would be best to get the change into Debian and then sync with that, if he is maintainer for both, then he's the guy | 01:22 |
| teward | have you considered filing a bug on this in Debian? | 01:22 |
| teward | because that's probably the best way to get their attention | 01:22 |
| MichaelTunnell | but Debian doesn't use libappindicator, that is an Ubuntu package unless I'm mistaken | 01:22 |
| TJ- | MichaelTunnell: Ahhh, I see what you mean, so there needs to be a diff between Debian and Ubuntu | 01:23 |
| MichaelTunnell | yes, and that is the only diff | 01:23 |
| teward | which release were you expecting to get this in | 01:23 |
| teward | because i think you might have a problem getting this SRU'd, and this would only get into trusty | 01:23 |
| teward | (this close to feature freeze, though... I dunno) | 01:23 |
| TJ- | MichaelTunnell: Are you able to produce the diff/patch so the maintainer can merge it? | 01:23 |
| MichaelTunnell | 14.04 which it is already in the repo for 14.04 with our latest release...just that one feature is not | 01:23 |
| TJ- | I'd think if the maintainer has been lax, an FFE wouldn't be rejected | 01:24 |
| MichaelTunnell | teward: I dont mind getting backports later as long as I can get it into trusty | 01:24 |
| teward | considering uget is in universe i don't think it *has* a maintainer | 01:24 |
| teward | or, at least not a maintainer in Ubuntu | 01:24 |
| MichaelTunnell | yea the maintainer is just the guy from debian | 01:24 |
| teward | (this is the case with a lot of packages) | 01:24 |
| MichaelTunnell | and he just pulls the debian version in | 01:24 |
| TJ- | https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/uget | 01:25 |
| teward | actually Ubuntu does that on their own | 01:25 |
| teward | :P | 01:25 |
| teward | autosyncs ;P | 01:25 |
| MichaelTunnell | ahh | 01:25 |
| TJ- | You'd need to grab a MOTU and offer them a patch, probably a bzr branch they can easily merge | 01:26 |
| MichaelTunnell | MOTU? | 01:27 |
| MichaelTunnell | what does that mean | 01:27 |
| TJ- | Masters of the Univerise | 01:27 |
| TJ- | s/Univerise/Universe/ | 01:27 |
| MichaelTunnell | ok that makes even less sense | 01:27 |
| MichaelTunnell | lol | 01:27 |
| MichaelTunnell | oh ok | 01:27 |
| teward | actually you'd need a Sponsor | 01:27 |
| teward | not necessarily a MOTU | 01:27 |
| TJ- | The maintainers of the "Universe" pocket | 01:27 |
| teward | TJ-: perhaps you need to read up on sponsoring | 01:27 |
| teward | !sponsoring | 01:28 |
| ubot2` | You can find out about the package sponsorship process here http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SponsorshipProcess - For !UDS sponsorship see http://uds.ubuntu.com/participate/sponsorship/ | 01:28 |
| teward | doesn't *require* a MOTU | 01:28 |
| teward | but they will critique your stuff | 01:28 |
| MichaelTunnell | not sure how to make a patch | 01:28 |
| MichaelTunnell | though we have a ppa with the correct stuff | 01:29 |
| MichaelTunnell | if that doesnt help I can contact the main developer and see if he will do it...I'm pretty much the designer with only slight programming...so this is past my skill level | 01:29 |
| TJ- | Where's your PPA? | 01:30 |
| MichaelTunnell | https://launchpad.net/~plushuang-tw | 01:30 |
| MichaelTunnell | only thing in there is uget | 01:30 |
| teward | you have two versions :p | 01:30 |
| teward | which one is based off the debian version | 01:31 |
| teward | or off the ubuntu version | 01:31 |
| teward | if neither are based off those then the patch has to be made by hand | 01:31 |
| MichaelTunnell | we made the ppa version before both | 01:31 |
| MichaelTunnell | so guess neither | 01:31 |
| MichaelTunnell | except for an old version but not recents | 01:32 |
| teward | what actually needs to be done to make this work | 01:32 |
| teward | i may be able to try and handwrite a debdiff for you assuming you have a bug for this | 01:32 |
| MichaelTunnell | libappindicator needs to be included in the Ubuntu package...thats the only thing wrong with the ubuntu version | 01:33 |
| teward | that's vague | 01:33 |
| teward | is it a build dep or a runtime dep or both :P | 01:33 |
| TJ- | MichaelTunnell: I don't see any diff between your latest package and the one in Ubuntu | 01:33 |
| teward | next question is whether the two bugs on this are dupes of them | 01:33 |
| teward | (brb) | 01:33 |
| MichaelTunnell | one is an issue from an old version | 01:34 |
| MichaelTunnell | the 2012 bug is old | 01:34 |
| MichaelTunnell | my bug is for 1.10.4 and the other is for 1.10.3 | 01:34 |
| TJ- | OK, my mistake, I ran against the wrong directory! | 01:34 |
| MichaelTunnell | though the difference between those two have nothing to do with libappindicator | 01:34 |
| MichaelTunnell | :) | 01:35 |
| TJ- | MichaelTunnell: so all you want to add is debian/control Build-Depends "libappindicator3-dev," | 01:35 |
| MichaelTunnell | that should be all that is needed but to be honest I am not totally sure as I'm just the lowly designer :) | 01:35 |
| TJ- | lets find out then | 01:36 |
| MichaelTunnell | thanks | 01:38 |
| MichaelTunnell | wait are you saying you are doing that or do Ineed to contact the dev? | 01:38 |
| TJ- | I'm doing it | 01:40 |
| TJ- | MichaelTunnell: Do you have a clean Unity-based system you can test the binary on - one that hasn't had the package installed previously ? I don't use Gnome here so not sure if I can test it correctly | 01:44 |
| MichaelTunnell | I can load up a liveusb sure | 01:46 |
| TJ- | Hmm, it seems ok. On KDE I have a green "G" icon | 01:47 |
| MichaelTunnell | I havent tried it in kde on ubuntu | 01:47 |
| TJ- | I might have a clean desktop VM here, let me check | 01:47 |
| MichaelTunnell | ok | 01:47 |
| MichaelTunnell | where do I get the package to test it? | 02:13 |
| TJ- | MichaelTunnell: http://iam.tj/projects/misc/uget-trusty-appindicator.png | 02:14 |
| TJ- | Is that correct? | 02:14 |
| teward | TJ-: did you build it locally on your system (pbuilder or sbuild or something?) | 02:15 |
| MichaelTunnell | TJ-: yep that looks good | 02:16 |
| MichaelTunnell | close the app and tell it to minimize to tray | 02:16 |
| MichaelTunnell | then try "show main window" from tray | 02:17 |
| MichaelTunnell | and that would mean it works fine | 02:17 |
| TJ- | MichaelTunnell: Yes, that works | 02:20 |
| TJ- | teward: Yes | 02:20 |
| MichaelTunnell | then awesome | 02:25 |
| TJ- | MichaelTunnell: OK, The bug is now linked to my bzr branch containing the fix, so you just to get it sponsored and merged | 02:25 |
| MichaelTunnell | i have no idea how to do that | 02:25 |
| TJ- | MichaelTunnell: If you refresh the bug-page you'll see it under "Related branches" | 02:25 |
| MichaelTunnell | how do I get it sponsored? | 02:26 |
| TJ- | MichaelTunnell: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SponsorshipProcess | 02:27 |
| MichaelTunnell | thanks | 02:28 |
| TJ- | MichaelTunnell: I've proposed it for merge, you can watch its progress here: https://code.launchpad.net/~tj/ubuntu/trusty/uget/lp1278233/+merge/206571 | 02:32 |
| MichaelTunnell | sweet thanks | 02:34 |
| MichaelTunnell | do I still need to get it sponsored? | 02:34 |
| TJ- | It might help to get some attention, but the merge request should be seen in the queue, it just depends if anyone is interested/free enough | 02:35 |
| MichaelTunnell | I know someone from Canonical who might be wiling to throw some eyes at it (he isn't a developer which is why I didn't ask for help from him about this issue) | 02:37 |
| MichaelTunnell | thank you very much for your assistance | 02:38 |
| TJ- | MichaelTunnell: You're welcome, fortunately for you it was a trivial patch :) | 02:39 |
| MichaelTunnell | :) indeed...we typically don't have large bugs so if we do have bugs it is usually something like this :) | 02:40 |
