[00:29] Just upgraded from 12.04 to 14.04.1 and had a question about the repos added by Mythbuntu Control Centre. The MythTV Updates one is straightforward, but the other 2 aren't found for Trusty when I apt-get update. Are these other 2 repos (Mythbuntu Updates and XMLTV) needed for a "normal" user? What do those repos give that aren't in the main Ubuntu repos? [00:33] bregol: i had the same issues, just unselect the XMLTV one [00:40] I did unselect both xmltv and mythbuntu updates. Just wondering if either of those are used for anything. Looking at http://ppa.launchpad.net/mythbuntu/xmltv/ubuntu/dists/ there is nothing after Precise. It also looks like a year since anything happened in http://ppa.launchpad.net/mythbuntu/testing/ubuntu/dists/ === jya_ is now known as jya [11:48] superm1: (a) We would like to understand, about whats' really going on with 'libav' vs 'ffmpeg' and this being 'external' or internally provided by mythtv source tree etc... [11:56] enyc: hop in #mythtv [11:56] jya: and a few others should be able to discuss more [11:56] But jist right now is there are patches on top of ffmpeg not upstream [11:57] And features not in libav [11:57] enyc: I have already answered most of those questions in the debian-devel list a couple of days ago [12:00] mythtv uses its own fork for ffmpeg, currently based on ffmpeg. we use our own mpeg-ts demuxer, various additions in particular related to subtitle support, mheg, stream change detection etc [12:54] jya: aaah yes the latter parts helps // makes sense =) [12:56] we have tried along the years to get our changes committed upstream… too much effort, and often dealing with people who saw no interest in what we wanted made a frustrating experience [12:56] every single person of mythtv who have attempted to get our changes committed upstreams gave up [12:57] and there’s been a few in close to 15 years [12:57] * jya off to bed [12:58] jya: i see dont woryr =) [13:53] superm1: as far as I can tell, trusty AND precuse mythtv source packge (and so, built packages) is vulnerable to security issue: http://git.videolan.org/?p=ffmpeg.git;a=commitdiff;h=9ade5b804ea1ff98971972769c43497a597b0e77 [13:54] superm1: its a simple patch, resulted in new ffmpeg point releases. In the case of mythtv 0.27.x newer, I wonder if this should be done by merging ffmpeg 1.2.7 over 1.2.6 in there last I checked... [13:55] superm1: should I be filing ubuntu bug or something against our packages? [14:37] superm1: i note, thecre are a few related / extra fixes in: http://git.videolan.org/?p=ffmpeg.git;a=shortlog;h=n1.2.7 [15:55] enyc: best thing to do is file a bug upstream with mythtv guys [15:55] enyc: they'll include it in the next point release they cut [15:55] and it will get pulled into our -fixes branch builds immediately then [16:19] !help [16:19] !help For a complete list of my knowledge visit: http://www.baablogic.net/Zinn.cgi Other available commands: !status, !about, !bug [bug_number]. [16:22] superm1: aha. apparently, it is in fixes already, https://github.com/MythTV/mythtv/commit/f4195b2eb88296523351813c29933e81e6bd851f [16:22] enyc: ah nice [16:23] superm1: but when I apt-get source etc agaist 'trusty' deb-src's... the un-fixed code is still there. I'm guessing we simply need to re-pull fixes again now? [16:23] enyc: well we filed an SRU to get a newer mythtv point release in [16:23] but it's gone nowhere [16:23] we have the fixes in our fixes PPA though that means [16:24] https://launchpad.net/~mythbuntu/+archive/0.27 [16:24] superm1: sure, a 0.27.3 PPA -or- SRU would be good but thats' in some means separate...? we still should get precise-lts-0.25 and trusty-lts-0.27 security-fixed ? [16:24] we try to point people at the PPA for now since SRU's don't seem to be happening [16:25] the PPA is the recommended way [16:25] https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1323391 [16:25] is the bug we were trying to get going, you can see the lack of activity from people who did need to ack it [16:30] we need to do a new request [16:30] and I'm not 100% sure it's going to be an SRU [16:30] (but neither does the release team :/ ) [16:32] tgm4883: does it 'help' that we now have missing security-problem etc.? [16:32] probably [16:45] tgm4883: okay I'll leave you on that case =) [16:46] I'm getting bits and pieces and trying builds with ARM (armel, armhf, rpi(raspbian)) with opengl enabled etc.. I need to check when get to the other desk but I got the impression it can now build without needing to 'disable' opengl
