[14:05] <Fazer2> hi, I want to patch qt package and upload it to PPA, should I use this tutorial? http://packaging.ubuntu.com/html/patches-to-packages.html
[14:11] <Fazer2> is this "tutorial" up to date? http://askubuntu.com/questions/454/what-is-the-proper-way-to-patch-wine-for-a-custom-ppa
[14:14] <Riddell> Fazer2: that patches-to-packages.html uses UDD which is quite complex, just use apt-get source qt4-x11  to get the current package
[14:14] <Riddell> Fazer2: then follow that page for quilt which manages the patches
[14:14] <Riddell> Fazer2: or just put the patch in debian/patches and name it in debian/patches/series
[14:15] <Riddell> Fazer2: what's the patch for?
[14:16] <Fazer2> Riddell: it's a workaround for Virtualbox bug - https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-42415
[14:16] <Fazer2> Riddell: I'd need to add 3 lines to Qt .cpp file
[14:19] <Riddell> Fazer2: yeah so slap the patch in debian/patches and debian/patches/series  quilt push to check it applies
[14:19] <Riddell> dch -i to add a new changelog
[14:19] <Riddell> debuild -S  to make the source package
[14:20] <Riddell> dput ppa:myppa/foo *changes
[14:20] <Riddell> to upload
[14:20] <Fazer2> Riddell: thanks :-)
[20:04] <Noskcaj> cjwatson, Can you take a look at https://code.launchpad.net/~noskcaj/ubuntu/vivid/sagan/liblognorm-transition/+merge/242573 ? It will let you finish the liblognorm transition
[22:00] <Noskcaj> cjwatson, libscalar-list-utils-perl has been fixed with the new perl in debian, could we sync it (You RMed it in trusty for breaking with perl 5.18)
