=== rtarik__ is now known as rtarik
lubot<HMollerCl> wxl: I could solve the problema I had, db_helper needed python2 tools. But the way to dela with .desktop is giving me a hedach.15:48
wxl@HMollerCl did you figure it out?16:50
lubot<HMollerCl> wxl: nope16:50
lubot<HMollerCl> apaprently is a combination between setup.cfg wit i18n_build and debian/*.install16:51
wxlhuh16:51
wxli thought if the file was there in the source, it's just a simple matter of listing it in .install16:52
lubot<HMollerCl> the way I'm guessing is that the setup.cfg takes the .desktop.in and convert it to .desktop16:52
wxlmaybe that's if an only if you use the .in format16:53
lubot<HMollerCl> the other option is that dpkg-buildpackage needs to be run with othe roptions16:55
lubot<HMollerCl> but I couldn't found if tehre is somewhere an idea of how it is use for every package. update-manager and software-properties use the .desktop.in16:56
wxli don't know if it's still a thing but there's an #ubuntu-packaging16:58
wxlthere's also #packaging on oftc. mainly for debian but still17:01
lubot<HMollerCl> will try to reach them, I can't from here cause proxy blocks irc17:03
lubot<HMollerCl> wxl: this is what software-poperties and update-manager use https://launchpad.net/python-distutils-extra18:53
lubot<HMollerCl> wxl: I ended up doing with pure .desktop and .install no distutils, no .in19:11
lubot<HMollerCl> Have one question with the copyright file, which one shoudl I use?19:12
wxl@HMollerCl copyright files are the hardest part of the whole thing, but are you asking which license you should use for what you created?19:17
lubot<HMollerCl> Yes19:17
wxl@lynorian: is the master branch what builds on manual.l.m?19:20
lubot<lynorian> 19.04 is now and I wasn't the one that switched it actually19:21
wxlso i should push changes to 19.04?19:21
lubot<lynorian> yes you have changes :D19:22
lubot<lynorian> but also get them in master as that is what will conitue and eventually be branched to 19.10 stuff19:22
wxlmy main thing was to get rid of the 18.10 language in the updating section19:26
lubot<lynorian> ok19:29
lubot<lynorian> sorry I didn't notice that19:29
wxlshould i bother or do you want to do it?19:30
lynorianI don't really want to do that been a bit busy 19:30
wxlk19:30
wxlhow do you usually deal with making the changes on both branches?19:31
lubot<lynorian> usually make changes in master and then merge master to 19.0419:31
wxlis that just `git checkout 19.04 && git merge master`?19:32
lubot<lynorian> yes19:32
wxl@lynorian: can you add me to the documentation team?19:44
lynorianon phab?19:45
wxlyeah19:45
wxlit's the only way i can push19:45
wxland only project members can add19:45
wxli can probably force it thruogh the back end but i'd have to dig for it19:45
lynorianor others could use arc if we really wanted to 19:46
lynorianbut I trust you enough19:46
lynorianand done19:47
wxlthx19:47
wxlok changes made. still needs a new screenshot to not be entirely 18.10 specific but c'est la vie19:49
wxldoes the manual get autobuilt after every push? doesn't seem like it. i also don't see a crontab on the phab machine19:52
lubot<tsimonq2> @wxl [<wxl> does the manual get autobuilt after every push? doesn't seem like it. i al …], It's in its own container20:01
lubot<tsimonq2> And yes, it's on hourly cron.20:02
wxlugh i keep forgetting abotu the containters20:02
lubot<teward001> containters20:36
lubot<teward001> wxl, I think your keyboard needs reprogrammed20:36
lubot<tsimonq2> @teward001 [wxl, I think your keyboard needs reprogrammed], So does yours :P20:38
lubot<HMollerCl> wxl: I manage to get the .deb package and it's working22:04
lubot<HMollerCl> I'm only getting problemas during it's installation22:04
lubot<HMollerCl> https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/c8yzDHw24W/22:07
lubot<HMollerCl> in plain english https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/cKsbpNwRND/22:09
wxl@teward001 you need reprogrammed22:18
wxloh wow jeez i have no idea!22:19
lubot<HMollerCl> that's when I instyall with "dpkg -i" any other option?22:25
wxlno i mean that's the way to do it but it seems that some call to py3compile isn't behaving right22:25
wxlthat seems to be a postinst script?22:26
lubot<HMollerCl> yes22:26
lubot<HMollerCl> THings get installed22:26
lubot<HMollerCl> might be some signing issues?22:26
wxllink me to that script please22:27
lubot<HMollerCl> since I created the package with "dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc -tc"22:27
lubot<HMollerCl> @wxl [<wxl> link me to that script please], To which script?23:55
wxl@HMollerCl postinst23:55
lubot<HMollerCl> It should be in the .deb?23:56
wxlprobably but it's probabl/y easier to just show me the code :)23:58
