| Noskcaj | ahoneybun, Did you package aisleriot for ubuntu or just for the ppa? | 00:34 |
|---|---|---|
| Noskcaj | I though you and tim were talking about it a few weeks ago | 00:34 |
| ahoneybun | Noskcaj, tbh I never got to it as I did not want to really bother tim with question after question | 00:35 |
| Noskcaj | Feel free to ask me if you need help with packaging | 00:35 |
| Noskcaj | www.debian.org/doc/manuals/maint-guide/ is also a good place for answers | 00:36 |
| ahoneybun | it is just I was asking questions that tim helped me with already | 00:36 |
| ahoneybun | darkxst, how do I renew my membership to the packaging team? | 00:38 |
| ahoneybun | Noskcaj, it seems a lot of people use different ways of packaging | 00:40 |
| Noskcaj | Yeah. many different build systems and VCSes can make things confusing | 00:41 |
| ahoneybun | Noskcaj, would you take me though your process of packaging > | 00:43 |
| ahoneybun | seems I have no mouse icon on the screen now | 00:44 |
| Noskcaj | I assume you mean merges, both from debian and upstream | 00:44 |
| Noskcaj | And having a mouse is usually good ;) | 00:44 |
| ahoneybun | um maybe | 00:44 |
| ahoneybun | ok so my mousepad does not work now | 00:45 |
| Noskcaj | To "package" things, you have a debian/ folder which contains copyright info, what depends the package has, what patches it needs, and instruction for a machine to build the package | 00:47 |
| ahoneybun | yea | 00:48 |
| Noskcaj | The instructions we use nowdays are either debhelper (lots of text, advised against), cdbs (few commands, but i find it confusing, and what gnome often uses), and dh (short debhelper, often only a three line file) | 00:49 |
| Noskcaj | And patches can be either quilt (good), dpatch (bad), or manually done (bad and rare-ish) | 00:50 |
| ahoneybun | ok back | 00:51 |
| Noskcaj | ahoneybun, And patches can be either quilt (good), dpatch (bad), or manually done (bad and rare-ish) | 01:00 |
| Noskcaj | We'll work on merging the new upstream release of clutter-gst-2.0 , so i've got something i can walk you through | 01:01 |
| Noskcaj | I found it at http://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=pkg-gnome-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org , where all gnome packages in debian are, and saw our version was not the current one | 01:02 |
| Noskcaj | First, run bzr branch lp:ubuntu/clutter-gst-2.0 to get the source as it is in ubuntu | 01:03 |
| Noskcaj | k den | 01:05 |
| Noskcaj | darkxst, Do you get australian cities in the wrong place in ubiquity? | 01:58 |
| Noskcaj | Sydney's marker points to canberra for me | 01:59 |

| darkxst | Noskcaj, thats an old old bug | 05:24 |
| darkxst | Noskcaj, there was https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=702194, which would help a lot rather than various apps using various forks of the timezone map! | 05:31 |
| ubot5 | Gnome bug 702194 in Date and Time "make timezonemap a system library" [Major,Unconfirmed] | 05:31 |
| Noskcaj | darkxst, i'm pretty sure i'd seen an ubuntu bug for it too. thanks for the link | 06:27 |
| darkxst | Noskcaj, yes there is an ubuntu bug too somewhere, but that is the root cause, the same code has been cut+paste into numerous locations with different changes in each location | 06:28 |
| Noskcaj | ok | 06:28 |
| darkxst | ubiquity forked the code from gnome-control-center | 06:28 |
| darkxst | then indicator-datetime forked the code from ubiquity | 06:29 |
| darkxst | its just a complete mess | 06:29 |
| Noskcaj | darkxst, Do you know if we're swapping to systemd this cycle? kde seem to need if for upower 0.99 | 07:28 |
| darkxst | Noskcaj, unlikely Ubuntu will, we might if it works well | 07:30 |
| Noskcaj | ok | 07:30 |
| darkxst | Phillip's comments don't seem to make sense though | 07:30 |
| darkxst | device management is pretty independent of systemd | 07:30 |
| * darkxst wonders if there is some unported code floating around in kde | 07:32 | |
| Noskcaj | darkxst, do we want metacity 3.12? | 07:51 |
| darkxst | Noskcaj, we don't use that, but edubuntu guys might so check with mitya57 or alberts | 07:52 |
| Noskcaj | ok | 07:52 |
| Noskcaj | it seems to be seeded in all flavours | 07:52 |
| darkxst | Noskcaj, its kinda a fail-over backup | 07:53 |
| darkxst | for when compositing doesnt work | 07:53 |
| Noskcaj | ok | 07:53 |
| darkxst | gnome-flashback however uses it as the default WM | 07:53 |
