| arraybolt3[m] | Si | 00:06 |
|---|---|---|
| arraybolt3[m] | Wow, hit Enter instead of Tab... | 00:06 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Simon Quigley (Developer): Any progress on pushing the Calamares packaging repo? | 00:06 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Good evening (or whatever it is in your part of the world)! | 16:30 |
| LeoK[m] | <arraybolt3[m]> "Good evening (or whatever it..." <- Good evening to you as well. | 16:46 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Leo K: I'm still not quite able to get the UEFI patch merged in, so would you like me to pastebin it and send it? It should be applied to /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/calamares/modules/bootloader/main.py (I believe, double-check me on that). | 16:47 |
| LeoK[m] | <arraybolt3[m]> "Leo K: I'm still not quite..." <- Yes you can send me - good to have basic instructions as I am not a developer | 16:53 |
| tsimonq2 | Good morning :) | 17:02 |
| tsimonq2 | Yes I can import that stuff in today | 17:02 |
| LeoK[m] | tsimonq2: Good morning and once again - great idea! | 17:04 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Leo K: https://termbin.com/jc0c | 17:05 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Copy the contents into a file names uefi.patch. | 17:05 |
| LeoK[m] | arraybolt3[m]: got it | 17:05 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Then apply it to a live system with "sudo patch /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/calamares/modules/bootloader/main.py uefi.patch" | 17:05 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Then try to install, and it should work on a UEFI system. | 17:05 |
| LeoK[m] | arraybolt3[m]: hang on a few | 17:07 |
| arraybolt3[m] | (Also, whoever invented termbin.com was a genius - piping to netcat is so much easier than copypasting into a website. URLs are short and easy to type, too, and they delete data after a month so you don't feel bad about eternally eating a chunk of space on someone else's server. Woot!) | 17:09 |
| LeoK[m] | install with ppatch running on barebone uefi+secure system | 17:18 |
| tsimonq2 | arraybolt3 @arraybolt3:matrix.org: Do you have a diff that includes packaging? | 17:20 |
| tsimonq2 | Or would you prefer a Git workflow? | 17:21 |
| LeoK[m] | restart - holding breath.. | 17:22 |
| LeoK[m] | I owe arraybolt3 one beer or maybe coffee..booted np | 17:23 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Simon Quigley (Developer): I think I just need to uscan the packaging repo, finagle Quilt and then send the finished patch. I think that's a diff? And then I can git push and send a PR, so that would be Git? Which one works for you? | 17:25 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Leo K: LOL I actually don't drink either coffee or beer... | 17:25 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Le | 17:25 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Bah, Enter instead of Tab again... | 17:25 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Leo K: Glad it worked! | 17:25 |
| LeoK[m] | arraybolt3[m]: Icelandic water is cool | 17:26 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Pun detected! | 17:26 |
| LeoK[m] | the test was with yesterdays (15-6) ISO | 17:27 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Simon Quigley (Developer): I think by "diff" you mean "arc diff". I couldn't get Arcanist working on my system, so I guess Git it is. | 17:27 |
| tsimonq2 | <arraybolt3[m]> "Simon Quigley (Developer): I..." <- pull-lp-source then make your changes then debuild -S -d and use debdiff between the two dsc files | 17:45 |
| arraybolt3[m] | And then I frobnicate the dsc files, right? Sorry, I have no idea what you just said... | 17:46 |
| tsimonq2 | 1. Get existing package using pull-lp-source | 17:47 |
| tsimonq2 | 2. cd into the packaging and make changes | 17:47 |
| tsimonq2 | 3. Run debuild -S -d | 17:47 |
| tsimonq2 | 4. cd .. and run debdiff ORIG.dsc NEW.dsc | 17:48 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Ah, OK. That makes sense. Thanks! | 17:48 |
| tsimonq2 | No problem, lmk how I can help | 17:49 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Is pull-lp-source still right in Kinetic? The Ubuntu manpages website makes it look like it got changed to pull-pkg. | 17:49 |
| tsimonq2 | Maybe, still works for me on Kinetic | 17:49 |
| arraybolt3[m] | 👍️ | 17:49 |
| kc2bez[m] | arraybolt3[m]: I hadn't realized there was a change there either and I have used pull-lp-source this cycle so I can confirm it to work. | 17:52 |
| arraybolt3[m] | kc2bez[m]: Makes sense. It looks like it's been pull-pkg since 20.04, I'm guessing that pull-lp-source was just made part of it. | 17:53 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Yep, confirmed. | 17:53 |
| tsimonq2 | arraybolt3: Packaging pushed, all clear. | 18:22 |
| tsimonq2 | (Keep up work like this and you may just earn yourself commit access ;) ) | 18:22 |
| arraybolt3[m] | tsimonq2: Let's wait until I really know what I'm doing. Last thing I need is to shatter all of creation with one poorly placed typo. | 18:23 |
| tsimonq2 | Just as something to look forward to, I didn't say now | 18:23 |
| tsimonq2 | :) | 18:23 |
| arraybolt3[m] | I knew that. Just making a joke. | 18:23 |
| tsimonq2 | I mean, what could go wrong? :P | 18:24 |
| kc2bez[m] | You are doing great arraybolt3 ! | 18:24 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Thanks! | 18:24 |
| tsimonq2 | arraybolt3: Let me know when you have a PR using one of the several options and I'll get it merged + uploaded. :) | 18:24 |
| kc2bez[m] | tsimonq2: We only have root access 🤷 | 18:24 |
| tsimonq2 | kc2bez[m]: haha commit go brr | 18:25 |
| tsimonq2 | (Gen Z joke, carry on) | 18:25 |
| arraybolt3[m] | kc2bez[m]: Just keep your fingers off the the r, the m, the -, the f, and the /, and you should be good. | 18:25 |
| tsimonq2 | arraybolt3[m]: Now you need --no-preserve-root to actually make that command hurt :P | 18:25 |
| kc2bez[m] | tsimonq2: I got it even though I am old. | 18:25 |
| arraybolt3[m] | s/the the/the | 18:25 |
| tsimonq2 | Also... | 18:26 |
| tsimonq2 | In case you're looking for an easy way to really get going arraybolt3 ... | 18:26 |
| arraybolt3[m] | tsimonq2: Thank goodness. You can actually brick some MSI motherboards with that one. | 18:26 |
| tsimonq2 | I can let you hack away at some of the backports packaging | 18:26 |
| tsimonq2 | arraybolt3[m]: yeah exactly | 18:26 |
| tsimonq2 | arraybolt3: All you need to do is follow this order: https://github.com/lxqt/lxqt/wiki/Building-from-source#Compiling | 18:27 |
| tsimonq2 | arraybolt3: The PPA is here: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-dev/+archive/ubuntu/backports-staging/+packages | 18:27 |
| tsimonq2 | arraybolt3: I have sbuild set up as per here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SimpleSbuild and http://wiki.debian.org/sbuild is also good reading, but whatever works | 18:27 |
| tsimonq2 | Basically, checkout ubuntu/kinetic, create a new backports/jammy branch based on top of that, add a new changelog entry as I've previously done (using the same scheme pretty please), run a test build with that PPA as a build repo, and verify no further packaging changes are required. | 18:28 |
| tsimonq2 | This is exactly how I got my first packaging experience. It makes you really well-rounded. | 18:29 |
| tsimonq2 | I would 100% suggest at least attempting to dig into some of that while I'm AFK today and someone can answer questions (or I can, when I get back). | 18:29 |
| tsimonq2 | The vast majority of the packaging changes have already been made. | 18:29 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Wow, that looks fun! And it's in backports-staging, so if something blows up no one gets hurt, right? Or should I try it in my own PPA just for safety's sake? | 18:30 |
| tsimonq2 | You don't have upload access to that PPA yet, but you can do one of two things... | 18:30 |
| tsimonq2 | A) Create a PPA that depends on backports-staging and test your builds there. | 18:31 |
| tsimonq2 | B) Create a local "PPA" to house packages in the meantime. | 18:31 |
| tsimonq2 | (The latter of which is documented in wiki.u.c./SimpleSbuild linked above.) | 18:31 |
| tsimonq2 | I usually do the latter if I'm rapidly updating a stack in an overlay PPA. | 18:31 |
| tsimonq2 | I do the former if I'm dealing directly with the Ubuntu archive. | 18:32 |
| tsimonq2 | There's benefits (more arches) and downsides (publishing time) to PPAs. | 18:32 |
| arraybolt3[m] | I like it. Then if everything works someone can check it and make sure it's good, then copy it into the official PPA if it's all good? | 18:32 |
| arraybolt3[m] | OK, sounds like a plan. I do need to finish the UEFI stuff, and then I have a project in Ubuntu Studio (PipeWire integration) to fight with, then I should be ready to try battling LXQt. | 18:33 |
| tsimonq2 | Yes, you can either propose the changes via Git and I can GPG sign it locally, or you can upload to your PPA and I can use local tooling to copy the source over via the Launchpad API. | 18:35 |
| tsimonq2 | Either or works, I personally prefer the former if you're newer but as things progress the latter is more scalable. | 18:35 |
| arraybolt3[m] | 👍️ | 18:35 |
| tsimonq2 | arraybolt3[m]: Sounds good. | 18:36 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Hey, while I'm right here, there's a bug somewhere in LXQt that's causing the "Open in terminal" button in PCManFM-Qt to throw an error related to a missing "xterm". | 18:37 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | It's Simon's Fault. | 18:37 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Eickmeyer: Ey! | 18:38 |
| lubot | [telegram] <teward001> *hands Simon the "Use git workflows!" edict | 18:40 |
| lubot | [telegram] <teward001> :P | 18:40 |
| lubot | [telegram] <teward001> *yawns* anyways hello | 18:41 |
| tsimonq2 | He's new, he needs to be well-rounded. :P | 18:41 |
| tsimonq2 | arraybolt3[m]: ooh, fun | 18:41 |
| arraybolt3[m] | OK, so what do I do if uscan decided to tell me "uscan warn: In debian/watch no matching hrefs for version 3.3.0~git20220610 in watch line https://github.com/calamares/calamares/tags (?:.*/)?v?(\d[\d.]*)\.tar\.gz"? | 18:41 |
| arraybolt3[m] | (Matrix slaughtered my hand-typed regex.) | 18:42 |
| lubot | [telegram] <teward001> here simon you have work. https://askubuntu.com/questions/1414369/how-to-disable-lubuntus-graphical-grub-theme i am giving this to you to help users with their issues. or to whomever wants to help. | 18:42 |
| lubot | [telegram] <teward001> but you first Simon :P | 18:43 |
| * arraybolt3[m] snatches the task from teward, turns it into a paper airplane, then bombards teward with it | 18:43 | |
| tsimonq2 | arraybolt3[m]: You have to manually craft that tarball when you make a new one, however, in this case just grab the one from the archivre | 18:46 |
| tsimonq2 | s/archivre/archive/ | 18:46 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Oh OK. With pull-lp-source, right? | 18:46 |
| tsimonq2 | !upkg calamares -> link to that repo -> tars right there | 18:46 |
| tsimonq2 | You can do that, or here: | 18:46 |
| tsimonq2 | https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/calamares/3.3.0~git20220610-0ubuntu1 | 18:46 |
| tsimonq2 | https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archive/primary/+sourcefiles/calamares/3.3.0~git20220610-0ubuntu1/calamares_3.3.0~git20220610.orig.tar.gz | 18:46 |
| tsimonq2 | (You only really need the orig file in this case, the other files don't particularly matter if you're working off of a Git repository...) | 18:47 |
| * tsimonq2 -> AFK, ping and I can answer at an async pace with questions | 18:48 | |
| arraybolt3[m] | Oh, by the way, as far as Falkon's viability as a default web browser, I'm actually really liking it so far. | 18:48 |
| tsimonq2 | Yeah? | 18:49 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Using it in my development VM as my sole browser. | 18:49 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Whew, finally finished the debuild! Looks like it worked! | 19:19 |
| arraybolt3[m] | After the "git add -A" step, do I then do a "git commit"? I don't see that in the packaging tutorial. | 19:20 |
| arraybolt3[m] | I think I'm supposed to git commit, then git push, then pull request. | 19:21 |
| arraybolt3[m] | (Also, when filling out the Quilt DEP-3 header, I wasn't sure what to put in the Last-Update field, but it was autofilled with a date, so I left it as-is.) | 19:22 |
| arraybolt3[m] | (After removing the documentation message in the template, that is.) | 19:22 |
| tsimonq2 | You're on the right track, keep going :) | 19:23 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Holy cow, that can't be right. It looks like the Debian folder got loaded with twenty tons of junk from the debuild step. | 19:24 |
| arraybolt3[m] | This is literally going to upload a built Calamares binary. What did I miss? | 19:25 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | Try executing dh_clean real quick. | 19:25 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Eickmeyer: Thank goodness. That wasn't in the tutorial. Thank you! | 19:26 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | np | 19:26 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Also, how do i undo "git add -A" so I can try it again with the now cleaned repo? | 19:26 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | Well, if you have git-cola installed, you can open the folder with git-cola . and it'll help you clean it up. | 19:27 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Eickmeyer: You just saved my day. Thank you! Unstaged everything and that appears to have fixed it. | 19:29 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | Yep, that would do the trick. | 19:29 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | git-cola has saved my bacon so many times it's not funny. | 19:29 |
| arraybolt3[m] | LOL | 19:30 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Wow, I like git-cola a lot. I may use it instead of the Git command line from now on. | 19:31 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | Honestly, git-cola taught me git in many ways since it's basically a graphical front-end. It can also create patches. | 19:31 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | git on easy mode. | 19:32 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Wow, it even did the git push for me. That's awesome. Thanks again! | 19:33 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Simon Quigley (Developer): Whew! UEFI patch created, pull request made. Look it over carefully, some of the stuff that it looks like is going to get changed is things I wouldn't expect, and I suspect that the debuild step left some junk behind, even after the dh_clean. | 19:38 |
| tsimonq2 | <arraybolt3[m]> "Simon Quigley (Developer): Whew!..." <- Link? | 20:08 |
| * tsimonq2 tries to find | 20:08 | |
| tsimonq2 | Requested changes | 20:14 |
| kc2bez[m] | <arraybolt3[m]> "This is literally going to..." <- Maybe this `rm -rf !(debian) .pc/ # requires bash and `shopt -s extglob`` | 20:18 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Dan Simmons: Nope, ran that. | 20:53 |
| arraybolt3[m] | And then I ran "shopt -s extglob" and then ran the rm command again. | 20:54 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Simon Quigley (Developer): It's a PR on GitHub. | 20:54 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Dan Simmons: Did I need to have the shopt -s extglob in my bashrc before running the rm command the first time? | 20:55 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Simon Quigley (Developer): Changes noted, will do. | 20:56 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Uh... I made the changes, committed, then pushed, but I seem to think I shouldn't need to make a second pull request. What do I do? | 21:12 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Oh wait, the PR picked up my changes. Nevermind. | 21:13 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Dan Simmons: Oh, I'm realizing what you replied to. Eickmeyer came in and saved me with a "dh_clean". | 21:15 |
| kc2bez[m] | `rm -rf !(debian) .pc/` cleans up your source files too. everything after the # is a comment. You need to have bash and shopt-s extglob | 21:19 |
| kc2bez[m] | As long as you got it. | 21:19 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Dan Simmons: But I even ran shopt -s extglob, and then ran the rm command (though I did run the rm command once, then ran the shopt, then ran rm again). | 21:19 |
| arraybolt3[m] | Dan Simmons: Did my first rm mess it up? | 21:20 |
| arraybolt3[m] | (I'm guessing that's probably what happened.) | 21:20 |
| arraybolt3[m] | (And I'm using Bash. I don't use anything but Bash.) | 21:21 |
