[00:11] <OvenWerks> Eickmeyer: fix commited. not sure if I did it right. I changed the version to 1.7 maybe it should be 1.6ubuntu1 or something for sru...
[00:11] <OvenWerks> tsimonq2: ^^
[00:14] <tsimonq2> If the package is native and the version is 1.7, the update should be 1.7.1.
[00:14] <tsimonq2> Native packages never get "ubuntu" unless it exists in Debian and their version is also native.
[00:19] <OvenWerks> tsimonq2: so I should have put 1.6.1
[00:20] <OvenWerks> anyway, back to Ardour...
[00:22] <tsimonq2> Yup.
[00:23] <tsimonq2> OvenWerks: Need an upload? :)
[00:23] <OvenWerks> yes
[00:23] <OvenWerks> but I am not sure what needs to be done to get it to work with 18.10 (sru, backport, whatever)
[00:24] <OvenWerks> I just fix stuff, I don't understand packaging or policy :)
[00:26] <tsimonq2> No problem :)
[00:26] <tsimonq2> So here's the gist of it.
[00:26] <tsimonq2> Fill out a bug report using this template: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates#SRU_Bug_Template
[00:26] <tsimonq2> I'll nominate the fix for Bionic in Launchpad and assign you to it.
[00:27] <tsimonq2> From there, get the fix, include the bug number (in the form of LP: #*******) in the changelog and push it somewhere.
[00:28] <tsimonq2> I review, make sure it follows the SRU guidelines, bounce it back to you if changes are needed, fix things if they're trivial, and upload.
[00:29] <tsimonq2> It then goes in the queue, a member of the SRU team reviews and if accepted, leaves a comment on the bug report. You then test, adjust bug tags and leave a comment if you think it looks good, and then it has to wait a minimum of seven days before being released.
[00:29] <tsimonq2> That's it.
[00:54] <OvenWerks> tsimonq2: so the fix needs to be up loaded and released for D cycle first.
[00:55] <tsimonq2> Ideally, but it's an awkward point in the cycle so not mandatory.
[00:58] <OvenWerks> I was going to enable our PPA builds for D but that option is not there yet :)
[01:00] <OvenWerks> tsimonq2: I think this will have to wait a bit. it seems there is no way to test the fix well. (on someone elses machine besides mine)
[01:49] <tsimonq2> OK.
