Unit193Tm_T: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=768816 doesn't give a backtrace, but does that happen to look about the same?  It's the same version from trusty-vivid, so I tried it here on vivid with no such luck in getting the crash.13:00

erwan____Hi. I'd like to add a new package to Ubuntu, but it's not open source so I just have binaries to provide. Is it possible?14:17
rbasakerwan____: it may be permitted in multiverse or Debian non-free depending on the exact licensing terms. But non-free software is generally frowned upon. What is it?14:21
=== Neo31` is now known as Neo31
erwan____rbasak: it is a software from IBM that I'm working on, it'll enable some DLPAR features when running on powerVM14:25
erwan____rbasak: it is a part of the work related to the ppc64el architecture14:26
rbasakerwan____: do you work for IBM? There's also the Canonical partner repository. Users can enable it to get software that is non-free but that Canonical ship as a service to Ubuntu users.14:26
rbasakerwan____: an example is Skype.14:26
erwan____rbasak: I do. This Canonical partner repository sounds good.14:27
Zhenecherwan____, is ubuntu already available on ppc64el?14:28
rbasakZhenech: yes :)14:28
rbasakAt least we've been building for ppc64el for a number of releases now.14:29
rbasakerwan____: stuff generally gets into the Canonical partner repository through a partner engagement. So this should probably be taken up with the relevant project managers. Do you know who you need to speak to at your end?14:30
erwan____rbasak: I don't know14:33
erwan____rbasak: I'll ask my team leader, he may has a better knowledge than me about this14:33
rbasakerwan____: OK. Let me know if you have trouble making the connection.14:34
erwan____rbasak: ok. Thanks.14:35
erwan____rbasak: in the meantime, I wonder how it works with non-free packages, what kind of files are provided to Ubuntu since it can't be source code?14:54
rbasakerwan____: AIUI, the binaries are put into the "source package", and the "build" just moves them around as needed.14:55
rbasakSo we still upload a source package to the archive, but it's not really source.14:56
