sney | hello, I'm the maintainer of the hexchat debian package which was manually synced to trusty a few weeks ago, and now I have an ubuntu-specific bug to address. when I have a patch, how do I go about getting it included? | 18:39 |
jtaylor | sney: there are two ways | 18:40 |
jtaylor | file a bug, attach a debdiff and subscribe ubuntu-sponsors | 18:40 |
jtaylor | or if you are familiar with bzr you can branch the package add the fix and file a merge request | 18:40 |
jtaylor | bzr branch lp:ubuntu/trusty/hexchat | 18:41 |
sney | ok, the latter seems fairly straightforward. thanks. | 18:41 |
jtaylor | I guess its bug 1294415 | 18:43 |
ubottu | bug 1294415 in hexchat (Ubuntu) "HexChat doesn't have #ubuntu as a favorite" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1294415 | 18:43 |
sney | yeah. wishlist severity, but I was going to take a look anyway | 18:44 |
jtaylor | the font thing should be solvable without deviating from debian | 18:44 |
jtaylor | you can also use distro specific patches with source format 3 | 18:44 |
sney | hexchat can pop up a dialog on connect that suggests a channel to join, so I'm going to put #ubuntu in there (it currently suggests #hexchat) | 18:45 |
jtaylor | see e.g. smuxi for a similar package | 18:45 |
jtaylor | it has a ubuntu.series which applies a patch that sets the ubuntu stuff | 18:45 |
jtaylor | that is preferable to a ubuntu only patch as it allows automatic syncs outside of freezes | 18:46 |

sney | aha, ok. I'll look at smuxi for an example | 18:46 |
