| Noskcaj | How do i upload stuff directly? I got upload rights for parole a few days ago, but wasn't told how i use them | 02:36 |
|---|---|---|
| psusi | Noskcaj, dput | 02:36 |
| Noskcaj | Do i need to target anywhere specific or will it just work? | 02:37 |
| infinity | Noskcaj: debsign foo.changes && dput ubuntu foo.changes | 02:37 |
| Noskcaj | ok, ty | 02:37 |
| infinity | Noskcaj: On ubuntu, the default target should already be "ubuntu", but it never hurts to be specific either. | 02:37 |
| ScottK | Although I generally change the default to something non-working so I don't upload to ubuntu when I mean a PPA. | 05:22 |

| rbanffy | Hi folks. I would like to add a 1920x1080 display mode for undetected (as in "the f* switch blocks EDID") monitors to the gnome-control-panel "display" panel. From what I got from the source, the resolutions look like they are coming from a deeper component. Would anyone suggest the right place to add this? | 15:45 |
| infinity | yofel: Multiple dashes in Debian versions are generally not a good idea. | 18:57 |
| yofel | infinity: upstream version is "2.8.1-1", what should I change that to? | 18:58 |
| yofel | it's technically permitted, so I kept it... | 18:58 |
| infinity | yofel: I would have just gone with 2.8.1.1 or something, but meh. | 18:59 |
| infinity | yofel: You're right, there's nothing technically wrong with your version, but there are a lot of bad version string parsers out there. ;) | 18:59 |
| yofel | yeah, sadly ^^ | 19:00 |
| yofel | I can re-upload if you want? | 19:00 |
| infinity | yofel: That would probably make my inner pedant happy. | 19:00 |
| yofel | ok, let's do that then :D | 19:00 |
| infinity | yofel: Actually, nevermind. If that's really the upstream version, we'll call it good. | 19:01 |
| infinity | (Weird way to version though, thanks upstream) | 19:02 |
| yofel | it's thanks to them missing corruption before release, so we get 2.8.1 again, as... 2.8.1-1 -.- | 19:02 |
| infinity | Yeah. Just a strange way to re-version. ;) | 19:03 |
| infinity | The upstream I work most closely with (glibc) has had to re-roll before, and our method was 2.15 -> 2.15.0 | 19:03 |
| infinity | (And I guess if screwed up twice, we'd go with 2.15.0.0?) | 19:04 |
| infinity | (Or give up, because we're in the wrong business) | 19:04 |
| infinity | yofel: Anyhow, after thinking it over a bit, I accepted the upload. Don't bother redoing it. | 19:05 |
| infinity | yofel: was just a knee-jerk reaction to the ugly version. :P | 19:05 |
| yofel | most of the time at kde we either have enough time to catch any issues, or they just wait until the next version. Most of the time... | 19:05 |
| yofel | yeah, I can understand that ^^ | 19:06 |
| infinity | Laney: Was your cinnamon upload meant to address bug #1266336? | 20:07 |
| ubottu | bug 1266336 in cinnamon (Ubuntu) "Cinnamon desktop hangs when selecting menu" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1266336 | 20:07 |
| fhassan | Any chance of moving Trusy release to April 8? (end-date of Windows XP support) | 20:39 |
| infinity | fhassan: No. | 20:39 |
| infinity | fhassan: Releasing 9 days after that isn't exactly world-ending, it's not like XP users are all going to magically switch OSes on that day. It's also not like MS releases security updates every day. :P | 20:41 |
| cjwatson | XP users are by definition not the sort of people who jump at new OS releases ... | 20:43 |
| infinity | Indeed. | 20:44 |
| infinity | All the XP users who actually like new OS releases are probably on 7 or 8 by now (or, indeed, jumped ship for Linux or MacOS years ago) | 20:44 |
| Laney | infinity: nope, it was an FTBFS fix | 20:47 |
| infinity | Laney: Ahh, kay. Then I'll keep that blocking bug blocking it, then. :P | 20:50 |
| infinity | (Someone in Debian really needs to pick that stuff up again... Or remove it) | 20:50 |
| cody-somerville | So, with Quantal coming to EOL sometime in April, is the supported upgrade path through the already EOL Raring or directly to Saucy? | 21:01 |
