pvlos | hello guys, is there any ETA for backported packages about apache regarding Logjam attack? | 08:57 |
pvlos | anybody around? | 10:15 |
Rhonda | never | 10:16 |
Laney | pvlos: you probably want to ask in #ubuntu-server if it's a security fix | 10:17 |
pvlos | Laney: thanks | 10:20 |
Laney | or #ubuntu-hardened, but either should work as a first step | 10:20 |
pvlos | Laney: asked already in -hardened but no answer yet | 10:20 |
Laney | okay | 10:20 |

slackner | hello, i was wondering a bit how to proceed with https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1437520 - so far this packaging request was ignored, and as i just heard in a different channel Maarten lankhorst, the previous wine maintainer, is not hired by canonical anymore. who is responsible now? | 17:34 |
ubottu | Ubuntu bug 1437520 in Ubuntu "[needs-packaging] wine staging" [Wishlist,New] | 17:34 |
slackner | we from the wine staging team would also do the packaging of vanilla wine versions if noone else wants to take over this task, currently it is terribly outdated (1.7.38). | 17:34 |
Unit193 | !info wine-development | 17:37 |
ubottu | wine-development (source: wine-development): Windows API implementation - standard suite. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.7.29-4 (vivid), package size 22 kB, installed size 123 kB (Only available for any-i386; any-powerpc; amd64) | 17:37 |
DarkPlayer | slackner was referring to the ubuntu-wine ppa: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-wine/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+index?batch=75&memo=75&start=75 | 17:39 |
Unit193 | Yeah, guessed. | 17:40 |
slackner | wasn't aware that there is also a wine-development package in newer versions, but as it seems its even more outdated | 17:40 |
Unit193 | !info wine-development wily | 17:40 |
DarkPlayer | since winehq does not accept bug reports for the stable versions, users are forced to get the wine version from some ppa if they don't want to build from source | 17:40 |
ubottu | wine-development (source: wine-development): Windows API implementation - standard suite. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.7.41-1 (wily), package size 23 kB, installed size 131 kB (Only available for any-i386; any-powerpc; amd64; armhf) | 17:41 |
slackner | current one is 1.7.43, so still outdated *g* ;) | 17:41 |
Unit193 | I'm just checking what's in the repos now. :P | 17:41 |
slackner | are these packages just ported from debian? or who is responsible? we would like to proceed somehow with resolving bug 1437520 or at least hear some opinions ^^ | 17:43 |
ubottu | bug 1437520 in Ubuntu "[needs-packaging] wine staging" [Wishlist,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1437520 | 17:43 |
DarkPlayer | Maintainer: Debian Wine Party <pkg-wine-party@lists.alioth.debian.org> | 17:44 |
DarkPlayer | Uploaders: Michael Gilbert <mgilbert@debian.org>, Stephen Kitt <skitt@debian.org> | 17:44 |
DarkPlayer | looks like the debian package | 17:44 |
micahg | slackner: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/NewPackages?upid=9399#Packaging_it_yourself would be the next step if no one else wants to do it | 17:47 |
micahg | have you contacted the wine team in Debian | 17:47 |
micahg | that's probably the best bet | 17:47 |
micahg | https://pkg-wine.alioth.debian.org/ | 17:48 |
DarkPlayer | micahg: there was already a bug report in debian for adding wine staging (from someone else), but it didn't receive any attention | 17:49 |
slackner | micahg: i am not sure if this has changed now that mlankhorst doesn't seem to be responsible anymore, but so far the ubuntu wine packages were packaged by ubuntu directly | 17:51 |
DarkPlayer | moreover, debian also only provides the stable version and their solution to rename all executables in the wine-development package is more than hacky | 17:51 |
slackner | micahg: and as DarkPlayer already said, based on the previous discussions debian didn't seem to be very interested, so we would prefer to get into ubuntu directly - ubuntu seems to be much more user friendly and also applied patches for pulseaudio support in the past, for example ;) | 17:52 |
micahg | last update from the Ubuntu maintainer was 6 months ago, so, generally, it's usually good for Ubuntu specific packages to have a dedicated team or maintainer that'll look after it as Debian has that for its packages, it's technically not a requirement, but without that, the package is likely to get out of date | 17:57 |
DarkPlayer | we wouldn't have a problem with maintaining the vanilla wine package together with wine-staging | 17:58 |
DarkPlayer | we already build wine-staging for a lot of distributions (debian, ubuntu, fedora, mageia, opensuse, ...) | 17:58 |
DarkPlayer | so there is no problem for us maintaining an additional package | 17:59 |
DarkPlayer | since we work on wine for a long time now, we also know how to build wine, many distributions contain broken packages because they use incompatible build flags or miss some important dependency etc. | 18:00 |
micahg | I would suggest contacting https://launchpad.net/~scottritchie/ as he's been maintaining wine in Ubuntu for a long while | 18:00 |
slackner | micahg: we added him to the bug report which was opened two months ago, no answer so far - i am also not sure if i should still expect an answer | 18:05 |
micahg | slackner: I'd suggest sending an email either through launchpad or directly, some people filter bug reports | 18:05 |
micahg | I'd suggest giving about 2 weeks after sending the email, if you don't hear anything and you have it packaged, we can work on getting it into Ubuntu | 18:06 |
slackner | micahg: kk, i'll give it another try then, thx | 18:09 |
micahg | slackner: thanks and good luck | 18:09 |
micahg | we're early in the cycle, so there's time :) | 18:10 |

utlemming | I just filed Bug 1459455 for inclusion in Wily. Wondering if any of you kind motu's could take a look. This is a Ubuntu specific package for xe-guest-utilities. | 22:59 |

micahg | I can take a look a little later | 23:08 |
