[05:57] <tjaalton> tmpRAOF: hey, can you check the mir patch in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mesa/+bug/1418486 and if good I can commit/upload it
[05:58] <tmpRAOF> Man, we need to refactor egl_dri2 so hard :/
[06:01] <tmpRAOF> Hm. Is that actually correct?
[06:01] <tmpRAOF> tjaalton: I'll have breakfast and then try and convince myself that it's not broken.-
[06:04] <tjaalton> oh, in a decent timezone then? :)
[06:04] <tjaalton> ok sounds good
[08:50] <tmpRAOF> tjaalton: Ok, I think that's ok.
[08:54] <tjaalton> cool
[23:17] <FOSS_drivers_FTW> Hello
[23:17] <FOSS_drivers_FTW> is there any reason why xserver-xorg-video-ati is still at 7.4.0 in vivid?
[23:18] <FOSS_drivers_FTW> see:
[23:18] <FOSS_drivers_FTW> http://packages.ubuntu.com/vivid/xserver-xorg-video-ati
[23:18] <FOSS_drivers_FTW> Debian already has 7.5.0, see:
[23:19] <FOSS_drivers_FTW> https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=xserver-xorg-video-ati&searchon=names&suite=all&section=all
[23:20] <FOSS_drivers_FTW> 7.5.0 is the latest version, see:
[23:20] <FOSS_drivers_FTW> http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-video-ati/
[23:20] <FOSS_drivers_FTW> so, is there any reason why vivid is still using an old version? why hasn't the latest version been imported from Debian?
[23:28] <tjaalton> probably not, though there's not much new besides pci-id's
[23:37] <FOSS_drivers_FTW> tjaalton: the wiki says: "Packages that have recently been added to Debian unstable will be automatically synced into Ubuntu prior to the Debian Import Freeze (DIF)."
[23:37] <FOSS_drivers_FTW> see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/NewPackages
[23:37] <FOSS_drivers_FTW> but obviously that is not the case
[23:38] <FOSS_drivers_FTW> Debian Import Freeze has not occured yet. according to the release schedule it will happen on February 19th, see:
[23:38] <FOSS_drivers_FTW> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/VividVervet/ReleaseSchedule
[23:40] <FOSS_drivers_FTW> the wiki goes on saying:
[23:40] <FOSS_drivers_FTW> "After the Debian Import Freeze, you will have to file a bug with the summary field "Please sync <packagename> from debian <distro>" where <packagename> is the package you would like to see. Find the date for Debian Import Freeze on the release schedule page. "
[23:41] <FOSS_drivers_FTW> so, what should one do to ensure the package will be synced _before_ DIF?
[23:41] <FOSS_drivers_FTW> filing a bug as well?
[23:41] <FOSS_drivers_FTW> or is it enough to report it here in #ubuntu-x?
[23:46] <tjaalton> that sentence is only true for packages which don't carry a diff
[23:46] <tjaalton> -ati can't be synced, needs a merge instead
[23:46] <tjaalton> what is it you're after anyway? a missing pci-id in the driver?
[23:47] <tjaalton> mlankhorst will probably do a new release closer to FF anyway, and we'll have that (or a snapshot)
[23:55] <FOSS_drivers_FTW> tjaalton: yes, the new pci ids mainly. with "FF" you mean feature freeze? and what do you mean with "snapshot"? do you mean a fresh build from git? yeah, that would be even better of course, as there have already been some more commits after 7.5.0
[23:57] <tjaalton> all ten of them
[23:58] <tjaalton> -ati is not like -intel
