[02:16] <seeit_> anyone in here able to help me with apt-build?
[02:18] <sarnold> irc works better with specific questions :)
[02:22] <seeit_> I am looking to build some packages with apt-build but if I do apt-build install <pkgname> I get a message that there must be some 'source' URIs in your sources.list, I've tried adding them but that doesn't work
[02:22] <sarnold> did you run apt-get update afterwards?
[02:22] <seeit_> I ran apt-build update
[02:23] <seeit_> just ran apt-get and i get the same message
[02:24] <sarnold> what do your apt sources.list files look like? (paste.ubuntu.com if they're more than three or four lines, please)
[02:27] <seeit_> ok, the deb-src lines were still commented out, thought I had fixed it but guess not, its working now, ty
[02:27] <seeit_> ls
[02:27] <sarnold> woot :)
[02:29] <seeit_> on a 4 core system with hyperthreading and 32gb of ram how long should I expect it to take to build world
[02:29] <sarnold> yikes, uh, what's in the "world" category?
[02:29] <seeit_> all currently installed packages
[02:30] <seeit_> ls
[02:30] <sarnold> probably a few weeks
[02:31] <seeit_> wow, any idea what causes the error ' the value 'apt-build' is invalid for APT::Default-Release as such a release is not available in the sources?
[02:31] <sarnold> you can find out how long launchpad takes to build specific packages; look up the source package name e.g. https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice click a triangle to expose the "builds", amd64 there says libreoffice took five hours, thirty one minutes...
[02:33] <seeit_> wow ok
[02:33] <seeit_> not interested in rebuilding libreoffice right nwo
[02:33] <seeit_> mostly some computational packages
[02:33] <sarnold> seeit_: wild-guess, maybe the '--target-release' option might help with the default-release setting  http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/xenial/man1/apt-build.1.html
[02:36] <seeit_> sarnold it was exactly that
[02:40] <sarnold> man I love it it when things work as I expect :D
[02:45] <seeit_> ok, now for a weird one, I was just doing this all in a VM to test out apt-build, now I copied sources.list over to the host machine and I get the previous error to put some URIs into sources.list
[02:45] <seeit_> wait nm
[02:58] <seeit_> timing world on my system :P
[02:59] <sarnold> how many packages do you have installed?
[03:01] <seeit_> 2206
[03:01] <sarnold> the worst ones I can think off the top of my head would be firefox, chromium-browser, libreoffice, mysql...
[03:01] <sarnold> owwwwww
[03:01] <seeit_> i've got libreoffice and firefox in there
[03:01] <sarnold> hope you've got loads of drive space and even more free time :)
[03:02] <seeit_> I'm not using the cpu much most of the stuff I need is through citrix and about 500GB of space
[03:02] <seeit_> but doing everything through -pipe
[03:03] <seeit_> I'll be surprised if the system reboots after this
[03:04] <seeit_> then the big question is if this works how do I make a install iso out of all these packages
[03:07] <seeit_> I suspect libc won't work with -fstack-protector-strong, at least it hasn't in the past
[03:07] <jbicha> webkit2gtk is heavy too
[03:08] <seeit_> yeah I've done linux from scratch before in a VM and that one is pretty hefty
[03:08] <sarnold> three and ahalf hours there, yeah...
[03:10] <seeit_> is there a way to supress the output from the build? I'm sure that would speed it up some, at least it has on other compilations I've done
[03:10] <seeit_> > /dev/null maybe?
[03:10] <sarnold> it'd probably beb etter to save to a file so that you can figure out why things break, when they inevitably will..
[03:11] <sarnold> grab stderr too
[03:12] <seeit_> already failed on apparmor, "Sorry, no package to install"
[08:48] <doko_> jamespage: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-cryptography/1.5-1/+build/10678695
[11:07] <tjaalton> huh, the update manager reboot-popup somehow takes 30% cpu on both xorg and compiz (xenial)
[12:06] <jamespage> doko_, +1 thanks for sorting that out
[15:17] <doko_> jbicha: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/totem/+bug/1547395 totem doesn't migrate
[15:25] <ejat> anyone facing broken icon panel in 16.10 ?
