[01:51] <karstensrage> i am trying to package a libnss library i wrote and trying to figure out how best to package it
[01:51] <karstensrage> all the libnss libraries in /lib/{arch} have a particular version like /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libnss_compat-2.19.so
[01:51] <karstensrage> and then a symbolic link named /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libnss_compat.so.2 to that file
[01:51] <karstensrage> so for my package should i try to mimic that? and then for different distributions, 14.04, 16.04, etc. whats a good way to pick that stuff up?
[01:51] <sarnold> iirc ldconfig is in charge of creating those symlinks based on maps files
[01:52] <sarnold> or perhaps on sonames..
[01:52] <sarnold> check out ulrich drepper's paper on creating DSOs for linux, I expect that will describe it
[10:02] <rbasak> cyphermox: seen bug 1681513 ?
[10:09] <LocutusOfBorg> slangasek, the problem of vlc and ppa is this one: https://github.com/google/protobuf/issues/206
[10:09] <LocutusOfBorg> I care about vlc nightly, but I failed to fix it
[10:09] <LocutusOfBorg> I think this will become a serious issue in artful too
[10:10] <LocutusOfBorg> vlc team is trying to avoid protobuf on that file, so eventually stuff will sort out
[12:10] <tomreyn> could someone with bug tirage experience please take a look at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1689825 - it needs cleaning up
[12:17] <LocutusOfBorg> jbicha, hello, tsimonq2 would like to steal some merges from your hat, I hope you don't mind
[12:17] <LocutusOfBorg> specially because tomorrow he will likely be a MOTU, so he will be able to steal them anyway :)
[12:27] <jbicha> rbasak: I think ideally we'd have a setting for the MAC randomization feature in gnome-control-center but there might not be anyone to work on that this cycle
[13:22] <rbasak> jbicha: what's your opinion on the default, given that some hardware apparently doesn't work with it? See the number of affected users in that bug.
[13:22] <rbasak> jbicha: and it seemed that upstream have changed their minds about defaulting to on? I wasn't very clear on this though.
[13:25] <acheronuk> LocutusOfBorg: could you copy the latest archive QtWebEngine back into the landing PPA? helps me with installability for testing and our CI if can get it from there, instead of -proposed or copying in into other testing PPAs
[13:27] <jbicha> rbasak: I don't have much of an opinion on it, except that we need to have an easy option to disable (or enable) it
[13:29] <jbicha> rbasak: could you email -desktop or -devel about it so that we can decide how we want to handle that for artful (and then for zesty maybe)?
[13:37] <rbasak> jbicha: done
[13:39] <jbicha> thanks :)
[13:52] <LocutusOfBorg> acheronuk, sure!
[13:53] <LocutusOfBorg> let me understand how
[13:55] <LocutusOfBorg> ./copy-package --from=ubuntu --from-suite=artful-proposed --include-binaries qtwebengine-opensource-src --to=ppa:ci-train-ppa-service/ubuntu/2819 --to-suite=artful
[13:55] <LocutusOfBorg> not sure if the world will explode or not
[13:56] <LocutusOfBorg> it should be good in some minutes
[13:56] <LocutusOfBorg> copyrights for the above command go to tsimonq2 :)
[13:58] <acheronuk> LocutusOfBorg: or? https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archive/primary/+copy-packages?field.name_filter=qtwebengine&field.status_filter=published&field.series_filter=artful
[13:58] <LocutusOfBorg> ctrl+R, find the latest copy-package invocation and run it swapping "to" and "from" :)
[13:58] <LocutusOfBorg> as sooon as I don't have to open a browser I'm happy :p
[13:59] <acheronuk> ok. fair enough. :P
[13:59] <acheronuk> thanks :)
[13:59] <LocutusOfBorg> you no core-dev?
[13:59] <acheronuk> me? lol. no
[13:59] <LocutusOfBorg> oh sad me
[13:59] <LocutusOfBorg> this is why you asked
[13:59] <LocutusOfBorg> meh
[14:00] <LocutusOfBorg> in debian every developer is happy to have access to everything and possibility to break stuff
[14:01] <acheronuk> indeed. permissions are hard to come by this side though
[14:01] <LocutusOfBorg> anyhow, thanks for the nice and clean work! it is becoming really green the tracker
[14:01] <LocutusOfBorg> I'm doing the cmake side of things
[14:01] <jbicha> if you become a DD, it should be fairly easy to become a MOTU or maybe even Core Dev
[14:02] <LocutusOfBorg> this is why I became a DD lol :)

[18:34] <juliank> cjwatson: Apparently the binary-pcc64el and some other architecture directory vanished for trusty-security, see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/1710399
[18:34] <juliank> cjwatson: The release file lists "Architectures: amd64 arm64 armhf i386 powerpc ppc64el", but there are only binary-amd64 and binary-i386
[18:49] <juliank> infinity: ^
[19:13] <cyphermox> rbasak: I had not, but I'm not so involved in NM anymore
[19:13] <cyphermox> seems pretty weird that they'd enable something like that by default
[19:14] <cyphermox> furthermore, it's not exactly a new feature...
