[01:54] hmm? === Wryhder is now known as Lucas_Gray [15:06] doko: i've started boost 1.71 by default test-rebuilds in a bileto PPA and slowly going through the py3.8 / boost-without-py2 fallout and trying to make patches for all the affected packages. [15:06] I will be uploading them to ubuntu, such that they all become "binNMU" safe to pick up new boost / new python3 / new cmake etc. [15:07] and removing any hardcoded versions as I go along. [16:48] Eh, last week, I asked on #ubuntu about a dependency tree problem I encountered with the netinst but no one was able to help. I know it isn't a support channel but I think some people here could help me find the best place to report the problem I'm facing. So here's my problem: On a minimal (with no Desktop Manager) netinst install, if I try to only install xorg, apt wants to install the whole ubuntu desktop (gnome shell [16:48] and whatnot). However, I only want to install xorg so I can install only a WM like i3 after that. Further, this problem also occurs when I try to install packages like VLC or MPV. Btw, Configuring apt to not install recommended packages isn't an option since I want those packages for most of them. Like I said, there seems to be a problem with the dependency tree. [16:56] sdk: there are alternate dependencies available. The default dependencies are set intentionally. [16:58] one trick is to use a - suffix to avoid the package you don't want. For instance: [16:58] sudo apt install xorg gnome-terminal- [17:35] you can also use --no-install-recommends for one command [18:04] Unit193, you might add your patches on top of that so they become debian friendly? === grumble is now known as grumboo [21:26] Hey. I'm trying to cross-compile a python package for Windows x64. While compiling a source file, the mingw-w64 compiler throws an error "unknow multiarch location for pyconfig.h". I opened up the pyconfig.h and I don't see any includes for Windows target. Am I doing something wrong ? [21:27] Is the header not provisioned for windows ? [21:28] Forgot to mention, I'm running all of this from within a virtualenv created for python3.6 === mnepton is now known as mneptok [23:00] LocutusOfBorg: Nah it's not really related to patches, it's the packaging being weird.
