[12:04] <Clint> lamont: I would have thought that with bash you'd be used to all kinds of problems. :)
[12:05] <lamont> Clint: feh
[12:06] <Clint> but seriously, zsh doesn't have that problem
[12:06] <lamont> no, it has it's own set.
[12:07] <Clint> hmm
[12:07] <lamont> on a different note...
[12:07] <lamont> wifely one wants an address label management program...  what's a good one, preferably from main?
=== Kyaneos [[email protected]]  has joined #ubuntu-devel
[12:14] <jdub> lamont: glabels
[12:14] <jdub> not in main
=== lup|strebe [[email protected]]  has joined #ubuntu-devel
[12:18] <lamont> jdub: thanks
=== lamont watches ia64 chunk along
[12:25] <lamont> jdub...  I want to give it an address book and print address labels from same...
[12:26] <jdub> i think glabels does that
[12:31] <lamont> very well may
[12:31] <lup|strebe> an app in C or python using pygtk
[12:32] <lup|strebe> does that make a big difference in the resources it will use
[12:32] <lup|strebe> and the speed
[12:34] <lamont> jdub: I can't seem to find a place to import an address book into glabels...
=== lamont reads the docs, gets closer

[12:46] <jdub> boggle
[12:48] <lamont> jdub: thanks - figured it out... now to educate the wife...
[12:48] <lamont> can I get evo to export an addressbook in csv?
[12:50] <jdub> lamont: hrrmmm, dunno
[12:50] <srbaker> jdub, that's sickening.  but somehow cool
[12:54] <hornbeck> jdub, mdz: was a process ever decided about how to become a ubuntu maintainer?
[12:54] <lamont> jdub: sick but, um, interesting.
[12:54] <jdub> hornbeck: not yet, no
[01:00] <hornbeck> jdub: ok, thanks
[01:00] <jdub> 'coming soon'
[01:00] <hornbeck> good deal, I am interested
[01:01] <lup|strebe> jdub wouldn't it be a good idea to rewrite some of the default gnome apps in a higher programming language
[01:01] <lup|strebe> for example gftp in python
[01:01] <mjg59> Generally, rewriting software is a bad thing
[01:01] <lup|strebe> not rewriting I mean replacing it
[01:01] <lup|strebe> with a program that has the same functions
[01:01] <jdub> that means rewriting :)
[01:01] <mjg59> Would the application be any better as a result?
[01:01] <jdub> only subtly different
[01:01] <jdub> yeah, that's rewriting
[01:01] <jdub> only subtly different :)
[01:01] <lup|strebe> I think the code will be easier 
[01:01] <jdub> lup|strebe: users won't care ;)
[01:01] <mjg59> So you end up writing something that behaves slightly differently, and so cause people to have to learn how to use it again
[01:04] <mjg59> In the process, you probably end up with about as many bugs as have already been fixed in the application you're reimplementing
[01:04] <mjg59> Sometimes, this is worth it - Sawfish needed a replacement writing because nobody could maintain it
[01:04] <mjg59> But there's no real shortage of people who understand C well enough to work on bugs in things like gftp
[01:04] <lup|strebe> gftp misses a lot of features I would expect from a ftp client
[01:04] <mjg59> That's an argument for improving gftp
[01:04] <lup|strebe> plus when you can use the default python modules for ftp, ssh, kerberos and proxy
[01:04] <mjg59> But, uh...
[01:04] <lup|strebe> you have a lot of less code to maintain so it becomes easier to add new stuff and improve stuff

=== jdub is trying the oss module for fun
[02:44] <jdub> given that the alsa ones stopped working
[02:50] <justdave> mdz: assignment to amu on 3101 was a typo in the javascript dealing with the livecd stuff.  just fixed it
[02:50] <justdave> had an = where it should have had an ==
[02:50] <mdz> justdave: oh, thanks. I assumed the submitter had inadvertently typed something in the field
[02:52] <jdub> justdave: can we get the component popup to go away when pressing enter?
=== Todd_MA_1975 [[email protected]]  has joined #ubuntu-devel
[02:53] <jdub> it is hard to enter 'linux' for example, given the number of linux... packages

[02:57] <jdub> mdz: the discover initscript stays with that upgrade] 
[02:57] <mdz> jdub: the init script stays, but the links go away
[02:57] <mdz> jdub: it's a conffile and could have been customized; we can't throw it away
[02:57] <jdub> ahr
[02:58] <jdub> shouldn't matter on warty->hoary upgradew
[02:58] <mdz> the script was there in warty too
[02:58] <jdub> oh
[02:58] <jdub> just no links?
[02:58] <jdub> makes sense
[02:58] <mdz> right, same story
[02:58] <mdz> it's no longer part of the package in hoary
[02:59] <mdz> maybe we can even get rid of the package for hoary
[03:00] <mdz> fabbione: what do you say? :-)
[03:02] <jdub> heh
[03:10] <justdave> jdub: yeah, I can try
[03:11] <jdub> thanks
[03:16] <jdub> justdave: oh, status of advanced mail headers (like gnome's)?
[03:21] <lifeless> mdz: yes they are, but I know that ~ is supported by dpkg, and policy didn't mention it last I looked.
[03:23] <justdave> jdub: I thought you were talking about getting the product and component listed in the email (it does that now)
[03:23] <justdave> unless that's what you meant.  did you want extra headers, too?
[03:23] <jdub> justdave: gnome's bugzilla provides heaps more
[03:23] <jdub> X-Bugzilla-Product: metacity
[03:23] <jdub> X-Bugzilla-Component: general
[03:23] <jdub> X-Bugzilla-Status: NEW
[03:23] <jdub> X-Bugzilla-Priority: Normal
[03:23] <jdub> X-Bugzilla-Severity: enhancement
[03:23] <jdub> X-Bugzilla-Target-Milestone: future
[03:23] <jdub> X-Bugzilla-Reason: CC
[03:23] <jdub> X-Bugzilla-Version: unspecified
[03:23] <jdub> 
[03:24] <justdave> ok, product, component, and reason can go in now, with just config changes.
[03:24] <justdave> the rest will take code (but not much)
[03:28] <jdub> sweet!
[03:28] <justdave> product/component are in.
[03:28] <justdave> I'll get the others on the next update I push
[03:28] <jdub> rocking, thanks
[03:28] <jdub> what do you think about universe as a separate component?
[03:28] <jdub> er
[03:28] <jdub> product
[03:36] <lifeless> mdz: and I just checked again. policy doesn't mention ~. lintian complains about ~, but dpkg knows about ~.
[03:37] <jdub> careful typing ~. there ;)
[03:38] <jdub> we should develop some spec that makes it very hard not to explain things starting with ~.
[03:38] <lifeless> ~. could be a problem, yes :)
=== jdub washes that arch developer right out of his hair!
[03:39] <jdub> if tom didn't like openssh he would've done that by now ;)
[03:39] <lifeless> lol
[03:41] <pasc> lol
[03:41] <lifeless> hey pasc.
[03:41] <pasc> hey lifeless 
[03:42] <lifeless> hows moi paperwork ?
[03:42] <pasc> well I've just figured out something
[03:42] <lifeless> tried baz yet ?
[03:42] <justdave> universe as a product might be confusing...  since hoary could conceivably have stuff in main that's in universe in warty, etc.
[03:44] <pasc> lifeless: I haven't looked at what it doesn't differently to tla, so no... haven't tried it
[03:44] <pasc> however, in "http://lists.debian.org/debian-newmaint/2004/02/msg00010.html", tbm says elmo prints out reports to process them. I reckon that's the problem now. If you guys forced elmo to commute, he'd have time to read those reports again. ;-)
[03:45] <jdub> justdave: oh
[03:45] <jdub> justdave: good point
[03:45] <lifeless> pasc: its not a problem for me... until he's got the report!!!!
[03:45] <jdub> pasc: haha
=== lamont looks hard at cyrus-sasl2, crys
[03:50] <lamont> cries, even
[04:01] <mdz> lifeless: that's exactly the state of ~ at the moment :-)
[04:01] <lifeless> mdz: ah. does aptitude handle it ?
[04:01] <mdz> lifeless: it's been implemented in the tools, but is not recognized by policy, and thus hasn't really been used or tested at all in the real world
[04:01] <mdz> lifeless: aptitude uses libapt, so yes
[04:01] <lifeless> cool. ok, I'm gonna use it :).
[04:01] <lifeless> for the auto-builds of baz
[04:02] <mdz> what if someone wants to package them for Debian? ;-)
[04:02] <lifeless> then they will have a different number anyway.
[04:02] <lifeless> (in point of fact, asuffield is already packaging baz)
[04:04] <jdub> lifeless: INTERESTING
[04:05] <lifeless> dunno if hes going to ITP and put it in the archive, but hes updating his build stuff, and was muttering about daily builds
[04:05] <lifeless> /home/robertc/irclogs/irssi-2004-10-29:16:10 #arch: < asuffield> dpkg-deb: building package `bazaar' in `../bazaar_1.1-1~20041029-1.canonical_i386.deb'.
[04:10] <mdz> lifeless: did you ask him why he hasn't updated tla in Debian?
[04:11] <lifeless> mdz: whats the current version in debian ? 1.2 or 1.2.1 ?
[04:11] <mdz> lifeless: 1.2
[04:11] <mdz> you filed an Ubuntu bug saying it was too old
[04:11] <lifeless> thats because 1.2.1 sucks in a couple of key ways, because tom /didn't release what jblack prepared/
[04:12] <lifeless> 1.2.2 would have fixed that, but some process difficulties cropped up leading to it not every going gold, and tom is now working on 1.3, planning a beta in a week or so.
[04:12] <lifeless> baz, right now, is >> tla 1.2.2 and >>>> tla 1.3
[04:18] <lifeless> bug #3103 - another missassigned to bazaar
[04:19] <lifeless> because I *care* about dell laptops
[04:33] <fabbione> morning guys
[04:33] <jdub> yo fabbione 
=== doko [[email protected]]  has joined #ubuntu-devel
=== lamont grumbles more at the gnutls1[01] -dev b0rkage
[04:35] <lamont> (specifically that gnome build-depends on both :(
[04:35] <jdub> heh
[04:35] <fabbione> jo jdub
[04:35] <fabbione> jdub: we might have a showstopper for X.org
[04:36] <jdub> oh?
[04:36] <fabbione> i already involved upstream
[04:36] <fabbione> it's an API/ABI change in a library that has not been handled properly
[04:36] <fabbione> quite a bunch of packages depends / build-dep on it
[04:36] <jdub> xaw?
[04:36] <fabbione> no xrender
[04:37] <fabbione> xaw has a new version with new soname
[04:37] <fabbione> so now we will ship xaw6 7 and 8
[04:37] <fabbione> but Xrender is a bit of an issue
[04:37] <jdub> yeah
[04:38] <jdub> did it change in 6.8 or 6.8.1?
[04:38] <fabbione> jdub: 6.8.1 afaict
[04:39] <jdub> with lots of internal dependencies on the change?
[04:39] <fabbione> jdub: no it's a new implemented function
[04:39] <fabbione> but they didn't rename the lib
[04:39] <fabbione> nor bumped the soname
[04:40] <jdub> can we ignore that change?
[04:40] <fabbione> no
[04:40] <fabbione> X.org is a FTBFS without it
[04:40] <jdub> yeah, so there is an internal dependency :)
[04:40] <fabbione> jdub: X.org as monolithic tree has no problems.
[04:41] <fabbione> the issue is the releation to this library
[04:41] <fabbione> i hope that Keith P. will answer my bug asap
[04:41] <jdub> ok, why is there an FTBFS without it?
[04:41] <fabbione> jdub: it's complicate dependency to explain
[04:42] <fabbione> basically xrender is shipped outside the monolithic tree
[04:42] <fabbione> because Keith always released it outside
[04:42] <jdub> mmm
[04:42] <fabbione> the last release he did was 0.8.4
[04:42] <fabbione> and in the monolithic tree
[04:42] <fabbione> there is a differen 0.8.4
[04:44] <jdub> bong
[04:44] <jdub> bong bong bong
[04:44] <fabbione> jdub: so the problem for us is to do a xrender transition in a sane way
[04:45] <jdub> yeah
[04:45] <jdub> and xorg doesn't like keith's xrender, right?
[04:47] <fabbione> xrender is maintained by keithp, both inside and outside x.org
[04:47] <jdub> i know
[04:47] <fabbione> x.org doesn't like the external one
[04:47] <jdub> yes
[04:47] <jdub> ok
[04:48] <fabbione> if keithp doesn't come back to me soon i will have to handle it together with OVerfiend/Debian
[04:48] <fabbione> we can't break binary compatibility for these applications that use Xrender
[04:49] <jdub> yeah
[04:49] <jdub> have you checked how red hat's dealt with it in FC3?
[04:49] <fabbione> jdub: no
[04:49] <fabbione> because iirc they don't ship several packages
[04:50] <lamont> night all
[04:50] <fabbione> they have one big xorg rpm and that's it
[04:50] <fabbione> night lamont
[04:50] <jdub> fabbione: they still have the same problem
[04:50] <fabbione> not necessarely
[04:50] <fabbione> shipping the internal version and recompile *
[04:50] <fabbione> is like fixing it
[04:51] <fabbione> but not in the right way
[04:51] <jdub> yeah, but acceptable in non-enterprise-don't-rely-on-this fedora
[04:51] <jdub> grr ;)
[04:51] <fabbione> yeah
[04:56] <fabbione> today daniels should arrive too
[04:56] <fabbione> i can press him to fix it upstream :-)
[04:56] <jdub> ;)
=== srbaker [[email protected]]  has joined #ubuntu-devel
[04:57] <fabbione> he will be my direct upstream bitch^Wlink ;)
[04:57] <fabbione> anyway other than this the situation looks good
[04:57] <jdub> you have unnatural control
[04:58] <fabbione> i know
[04:58] <fabbione> in a range between 0 and 10 you can consider me as an 11

[07:09] <hypa7ia> whoa someone awake
[07:09] <hypa7ia> :-)
[07:10] <jdub> there's almost always someone awake here
[07:10] <hypa7ia> whoot
[07:10] <hypa7ia> so i want to get involved in ubuntu, specifically with laptop support
[07:10] <hypa7ia> what would be a good first step (beyond ridding my machine of the foul pestilence that is fedora, of course)
[07:12] <jdub> identifying improvments that would help battery life
[07:12] <hypa7ia> si
[07:12] <jdub> turns out there's a bunch of patches to the kernel that help
[07:12] <jdub> which paul drain (ultrafunk) has been looking at
[07:12] <hypa7ia> kay, good to know
[07:13] <jdub> and there's something on the system causing regular disk accesses
[07:13] <jdub> which is not good for battery life
[07:13] <jdub> (and it's not just ext3)
=== hypa7ia nods
[07:13] <jdub> hrm
[07:13] <jdub> maybe look at the hoary feature goals wiki page to see what you can help with
[07:14] <hypa7ia> coolcool
[07:14] <jdub> can't think of anything else off-hand
[07:14] <hypa7ia> reading the wiki page on warty laptop support ATM
[07:14] <hypa7ia> would you recommend upping to hoary right away, or playing with warty for a bit first?
[07:15] <jdub> depends on how familiar with debian you are
[07:16] <hypa7ia> i've been running sarge one one machine for 2 months.  was a mac os x user for 2 years before that
[07:16] <hypa7ia> so i'm a bit of a n00b
[07:16] <hypa7ia> but a very committed one :-)
[07:16] <jdub> hoary is going to be fairly rocky for a while
[07:16] <hypa7ia> *nods*
[07:16] <jdub> but it's pretty sane atm
[07:17] <hypa7ia> whoot.
[07:17] <hypa7ia> i think i'll wait a month then
[07:17] <hypa7ia> just in case.  being a noob and all.
[07:17] <hypa7ia> :-)
[07:18] <hypa7ia> i have all sorts of fun unsupported or marginal hardware too :-)

[10:22] <mvo_> pitti: [email protected], sorry
[10:23] <pitti> mvo_: did you already upload this into Debian?
[10:23] <mvo_> pitti: not yet, I will soon
[10:23] <pitti> mvo_: it has no Ubuntu specific version number, so it should rather be synced from Debian
[10:23] <mvo_> what's the policy about the version in this case?
[10:23] <pitti> mvo_: okay, please ask elmo to sync it when it is in sid
[10:24] <mvo_> pitti: ok

[11:06] <Micksa> s/sho/who/
[11:06] <Micksa> gah, my typing sucks today
[11:33] <jdub> jamesh: gnome-font-viewer seems to work from the command line, but not from fonts:///
[11:34] <jdub> jamesh: $ gnome-font-viewer "fonts:///Andale Mono"
[11:34] <jdub> ^ works
[11:34] <jdub> $ gnome-font-viewer "fonts:///Andale%20Mono"
[11:34] <jdub> works
[11:34] <jdub> $ gnome-font-viewer file:///home/jdub/.fonts/Andale_Mono.ttf
[11:34] <jdub> works
[11:34] <jdub> Couldn't display "fonts:///Andale%20Mono".
[11:34] <jdub> There was an error launching the application.
[11:35] <jdub> hrm
[11:35] <jdub> no applications selected in the properties dialogue
[11:35] <jdub> looks like we've missed a mime type
[11:35] <jdub> yeah
[11:36] <jamesh> I wonder if it was updated for the new mime stuff?
[11:36] <Keybuk> nothing in its .desktop
[11:36] <jdub> yeah
[11:37] <jdub> where's the .desktop?
[11:37] <jdub> which package?
[11:37] <jdub> oh, capplets-data

[11:38] <jdub> there is no .desktop file

[11:41] <doko> pitti: should gnupg be built with capabilities enabled in Ubuntu?
[11:42] <pitti> doko: no need for that any more
[11:42] <pitti> doko: gnupg does not need to be suid root any more
[11:42] <pitti> doko: kernel 2.6.8+ supports limited mlock() calls as user, which is sufficient for gnupg
[11:43] <doko> so your patches 15_free_caps and 16_min_priviliges aren't needed anymoer?
[11:43] <pitti> doko: not really.
[11:43] <pitti> doko: but I think the package cannot be synced from sid
[11:43] <pitti> doko: since sid still installs it as suid root
[11:44] <pitti> doko: (I assume you are at syncing gnupg ATM)
[11:44] <doko> yes, but that's the only patch I identified.

[12:10] <doko> mithrandir: I have some updates for the ia32-libs/ia32-oppenoffice.org packages. should I do upload before you start updating the packages?
[12:10] <Keybuk> 14.34s to 3.46s
[12:12] <sabdfl> Keybuk: yowser, what's the trick?
[12:12] <Keybuk> sabdfl: "grepmap" :)
[12:12] <sabdfl> which is?
[12:12] <Keybuk> wrote it over the weekend, C tool to parse the module map files
[12:12] <sabdfl> cool, hoary?
[12:12] <Keybuk> rather faster than doing it in shell
[12:13] <Keybuk> yaeh
[12:13] <sabdfl> rock
[12:13] <Mithrandir> doko: what kind of updates?
[12:13] <Keybuk> it's sitting in NEW at the moment, just testing some corner cases and I'll upload the patched hotplug that uses it
[12:14] <doko> mithrandir: see #1996
[12:15] <doko> any reason that glibc isn't synced from unstable and no merge report is open?
[12:15] <Keybuk> doko: Colin just synced that one
[12:16] <Keybuk> uh, Martin
[12:17] <Mithrandir> doko: oh, that one.. the lib32* libs are in universe, right?
[12:18] <doko> Mithrandir: yes. do you really need lib32stdc++5 ?
[12:19] <Mithrandir> doko: isn't it used by openoffice?
[12:21] <doko> then it should be included in ia32-libs/office-libs. I'll drop the biarch support from gcc-3.3.
[12:22] <Mithrandir> but it'll still be in gcc-3.4?
[12:23] <doko> sure, yes
[12:24] <Mithrandir> does openoffice build with gcc-3.4?
[12:24] <doko> kamion: grub needs to be compiled using gcc-3.4 on amd64. could you do this change with your resync upload?
[12:25] <doko> Mithrandir: apparently not: see #279185
[12:26] <Mithrandir> doko: ok, any ETA on a fix?
[12:26] <Mithrandir> doko: hmm, no, forget what I said
[12:26] <Mithrandir> doko: so, if ia32-libs-openoffice.org builds the libstdc++5, it should be fine?
[12:27] <Mithrandir> what does it pull from gcc-3.4 today?
[12:27] <doko> libgcc_s.so.1, which we will have be built from the gcc-3.4 sources
[12:28] <Mithrandir> why isnt't that part of the regular ia32-libs?
[12:29] <Mithrandir> or rather -- how are you proposing to solve this?
[12:32] <doko> not needed until now. yes, ia32-libs seems to be appropriate
[12:33] <daniels> Kamion: just sitting in the copenhagen baggage reclaim -- bear in mind I've been on a plane since god knows when :)
[12:33] <daniels> Kamion: i'll get to it today after I've checked in today as a priority

[12:55] <jdub> pasc: yeah
[12:55] <jdub> pasc: and Keybuk's grepmap
[12:55] <Mithrandir> more pr0n?
[12:55] <jdub> Keybuk: why the new package, btw? (kind of generic name...)
=== Mithrandir hides
[12:56] <pasc> what does grepmap do?
[12:56] <jdub> Mithrandir: pr0nnier pr0n, this time
[12:56] <elmo> yeah, the name sucks
[12:56] <Keybuk> jdub: well, it's arch-any and hotplug is arch-all
[12:56] <Keybuk> and it's a little more generic, so really deserved a separate source package
[12:56] <Keybuk> and then hotplug only needs to Recommend it, etc.
[12:56] <Mithrandir> pasc: I think it greps a map, not maps a grep
[12:56] <jdub> Keybuk: s/all/any/ in hotplug's control doesn't sound insane... :)
[12:57] <jdub> elmo!
[12:57] <Keybuk> jdub: minimum impact, dude
[12:57] <jdub> won't upstream+debian want it?
[12:58] <Keybuk> most likely
[12:59] <Kamion> doko: sure
[12:59] <Kamion> doko: just build-dep and CC?
=== jdub makes weighing motions with his hands at Keybuk 
[12:59] <Kamion> daniels: no problem, didn't realise you were travelling, feel free to punt it to me if things are too hectic
[01:02] <Keybuk> jdub: turning hotplug into arch-any would mean changing the .orig to include the new source, possibly in a subdirectory, changing the rules to compile, link and install C, etc.
[01:02] <Keybuk> kinda icky
[01:02] <jdub> yeah.
[01:02] <Keybuk> the only change is just an extra patch in debian/patches to use grepmap if it's installed
[01:07] <doko> kamion: yes, sent you a debdiff
[01:07] <Kamion> doko: ta
[01:09] <doko> elmo: please sync python-defaults subversion foomatic-db from unstable, mailman 2.1.5-3 from incoming

[01:18] <thom> elmo: thanks
[01:18] <elmo> jdub/keybuk: what's the verdict - shall i add grepmap as is ?
[01:19] <jdub> seems like a very generic name to me
[01:19] <jdub> but it might not survive very long in hoary if it is accepted upstream
[01:19] <Keybuk> it greps map files ... I couldn't think of a better one :o)

[02:18] <robtaylor> lamont: hey, i'm just looking at the differneces between your ubuntu scripts-base and mainline..
[02:19] <robtaylor> lamont: i've integrated the simple stuff into my tree, but theres a whole load of work in grub-nonemu-2.6 which i dont quite understand - whats all that doing?
[02:20] <lamont> all the grub changes were changing splash screens
[02:21] <robtaylor> ah, and the removal of scripts-base/etc?
[02:21] <robtaylor> bla 
[02:21] <robtaylor> scripts-base/etc/init.d/debian
[02:21] <robtaylor> scripts-base/etc/modutils
[02:21] <lamont> stuff removed/changed in the init.d scritps was because it broke things. :-)
[02:21] <lamont> and ISTR adding something
[02:21] <robtaylor> ISTR?
[02:22] <lamont> I seem to recall\
[02:22] <robtaylor> i seem to recall, ok ;)
[02:22] <robtaylor> lol
[02:22] <robtaylor> i think you moved modutils from etc to root, it seems
[02:22] <robtaylor> and added autologin?
=== lamont really doesn't remember - are you diffing the -NubuntuM versions, or somethign more than that?
[02:24] <robtaylor> diffing morphix-base-scripts_0.5-19ubuntu1 and mainline
[02:25] <lamont> 0.5-19, or something else?
=== T-Bone [[email protected]]  has joined #ubuntu-devel
[02:25] <robtaylor> 0.5-19
=== bob2___ [[email protected]]  has joined #ubuntu-devel
[02:26] <lamont> ok. that'd be my changes, then/
[02:26] <robtaylor> (well, 0.5-20, but ignoring what i know are the differences between -20 and -19 ;))
[02:27] <robtaylor> yep, i as as tehre seems to be a *lot* of work, and i'm trying to make sense of it all.. and you have very few changelog entries....
[02:27] <lamont>   * chmod 644 /usr/lib/locale/locale-archive
[02:27] <lamont>   * correct typo with homedir setup
[02:27] <T-Bone> lamont: quick question: do i want to feed quinn-diff with -p and a packages list or with -s and a sources list?
[02:27] <lamont> that's all I believe that I did.
[02:27] <lamont> T-Bone: -p Packages -s Sources
[02:27] <lamont> and then it does a diff.
[02:27] <robtaylor> lamont: yep, that explains 2 lines of the 24000 line diff..
[02:27] <T-Bone> lamont: i should pass it both? Cause you were only passing one file in the first place
[02:28] <lamont> robtaylor: that's not to say there weren't other changes introduced because of whatever...
[02:28] <lamont> T-Bone: the default is to grab both of them from ./
[02:29] <T-Bone> lamont: ok i'll use both. I'm getting very close to the end of stage2, fwiw. I have the same problems than first time: gcc and perl wont build, as well as a couple other packages
[02:29] <lamont> robtaylor: want me to send you my diff?

[02:31] <robtaylor> hmm
[02:31] <robtaylor> and that all you have?
[02:31] <robtaylor> very odd.
[02:31] <lamont> robtaylor: I thought it was a pretty comprehensive changelog... :-)
[02:32] <robtaylor> well in which case the rest must be source deb building differences, *phew*
=== rburton [[email protected]]  has joined #ubuntu-devel
=== lamont said 'dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot' ...
[02:34] <mvo_> hi rburton 
=== robtaylor thinks theres some very big differences beween the source packages on www.morphix.org/debian and cvs
[02:34] <rburton> hi mvo_ 
[02:34] <T-Bone> lamont: i don't get it. if i pass both packages and sources, it compares and checks what's missing, that's it?
[02:35] <lamont> yes
[02:35] <T-Bone> ok
[02:35] <lamont> it says 'what sources are newer than the binaries I have'
[02:35] <T-Bone> then i have only 147 packages left, among which i presume a whole bunch are "expected failures"
[02:35] <lamont> and also remove ':partial' from the output, since those don't count either..
[02:35] <lamont> T-Bone: cool.
[02:36] <lamont> better than me, since it took me a while to figure out that cyrus-sasl2 is unbuildable right now.
[02:36] <T-Bone> hehe
[02:37] <T-Bone> suprisingly enough it wants me te rebuild glibc while i already have it built
[02:37] <lamont> does it say ':partial' off to the right?
[02:37] <T-Bone> lamont: i used:  quinn-diff -A ia64 -p build/chroot-warty/var/lib/apt/lists/envy_stage1_dists_warty_main_binary-ia64_Packages -s build/chroot-warty/var/lib/apt/lists/gandalf_dists_warty_main_source_Sources  | sed 's:^.*/\(.*\).dsc.*:\1:' > build_list_stage2.3
[02:38] <robtaylor> lamont: not convinced thats the upstream -19 that your comparing too..
[02:38] <T-Bone> greping partial in the resulting list gives no result
[02:38] <T-Bone> lamont: am i doing something wrong?
[02:40] <robtaylor> lamont: no i am convinced now =)
[02:41] <robtaylor> i'm going to go poke alexx
[02:42] <T-Bone> lamont: is that ok?
[02:43] <lamont> T-Bone: did you correctly create the Packages and Sources files in the repository? and did you apt-get update?
[02:43] <T-Bone> yes i did. Packages created using smashArchive, Sources created using your mirror script, version 1 :)
[02:43] <lamont> and do you find libc6.1 in the Packages file?
[02:44] <lamont> and is it the same version as the one that's going to get built?
[02:45] <T-Bone> Package: libc6.1
[02:45] <T-Bone> Source: glibc
[02:45] <T-Bone> Version: 2.3.2.ds1-13ubuntu2
[02:45] <T-Bone> and it wants to build: glibc_2.3.2.ds1-13ubuntu2
[02:46] <thom> fear, i 'ave ze pangoised firefox love
[02:47] <T-Bone> lamont: ain't that weird?
[02:49] <lamont> very strange
[02:50] <T-Bone> well i'll just remove glibc from the build list since it's one of the longest build
[02:51] <T-Bone> and hope that these are only positive diffs (ie, quinn-diff is only adding unnecessary things, not missing ones)
[02:52] <lamont> anything in sources that is missing binaries in packages goes in (some --> :partial)

[03:04] <robtaylor> lamont: ah never mind, they're already upstream it seems
=== java_lion [[email protected]]  has left #ubuntu-devel [] 
[03:08] <lamont> robtaylor: all of those changes should get pushed upstream.  alex knows about them, may have pulled all of them, or may not.
[03:11] <lamont> T-Bone: :partial means that some of the Binaries listed in the source package are missing.  duh.  we know that.  They won't get built if we do it over either...
[03:11] <T-Bone> ok, got that
[03:11] <lamont> :partial is the original reason that PaS was created
[03:11] <T-Bone> PaS?
[03:12] <lamont> Packages-arch-specific
[03:12] <T-Bone> huh!
[03:12] <lamont> the file that gets edited to tell the buildd's to not try a particular source package on a particular architecture.

[03:42] <mvo_> hi Mitario 
[03:42] <Mitario> hey everyone
[03:44] <Mitario> mvo_, any idea on when to get the update stuff out for the public and upload it e.g. to hoary?
[03:44] <mvo_> Mitario: this week?
[03:44] <Mitario> fine by me
[03:44] <mvo_> I added dbus support into upgrade notifier, so that it will recheck for upgrades on changes from apt
[03:44] <Mitario> wow!
[03:44] <Mitario> cool
[03:45] <Mitario> apt is already dbussed?
[03:45] <mvo_> no, but easy to do with the shell dbus-send
[03:45] <Mitario> ah
[03:45] <mvo_> for now I use it send a signal after synaptic ran (or to be precise the new upgrade-app script that will call the correct app :)
[03:46] <Mitario> :)
[03:47] <Mitario> it's great if we bring it out this week
=== Mitario has lots of hacking time
[03:47] <mvo_> that brings me to the upgrade-manager :) can we check it in somewhere?
[03:47] <Mitario> i could use gnome.org cvs, but i don't think i'm allowed too
[03:48] <Mitario> i could put it on cvs.luon.net, or my own server @ eyesopened.nl
[03:49] <doko> ohh, yes Robert Milan recently added this.
[03:49] <doko> kamion: ohh, yes Robert Milan recently added this.
[03:50] <Mitario> mvo_, are you an ubuntu maintainer atm?
[03:51] <Mitario> ah, yes ok, great :)
[03:51] <mvo_> Mitario: yes, but my account is not yet created, so I can't upload :)
[03:51] <Mitario> ah, ok bummer :p
[03:51] <Mitario> we'll have to get us sponsored then, i guess
[03:51] <mvo_> I think it will be ready in the next few days
[03:51] <mvo_> I have a synaptic update ready too
[03:53] <Mitario> ok, cool
=== Mitario is going to fix some last bugs in update-manager, and find a place to put an upstream source at

[04:38] <fabbione> lamont: do you think you can assist us with something simple?
[04:38] <fabbione> lamont: daniels already prepared from sbuild thingy
[04:38] <lamont> prepared from sbuild thingy??
[04:39] <fabbione> s/from/some
[04:39] <daniels> lamont: we have a (sort of hackish but not terribly bad) sbuild+wanna-build+etc setup
[04:39] <daniels> lamont: and want to simulate a scorched earth, but with xorg in place of xfree86
[04:39] <lamont> then what do you need me for?
[04:39] <fabbione> lamont: in case we get stocked somewhere?
[04:39] <lamont> note that you can't do a full rebuild of hoary right now - cyrus-sasl2 (and hence ldap and..........) FTBFS
[04:39] <fabbione> you are the buildd master here ;)
[04:40] <lamont> can help, sure.
[04:40] <fabbione> lamont: we can still start from warty
[04:40] <fabbione> that is already a good shot
[04:40] <lamont> yeah, pretty sure that warty can rebuild itself completely
=== lamont wanders off for about 20 minutes or so - back then
[04:41] <elmo> kamion: they did, but I did them before lunch?
[04:42] <elmo> lamont: done
[04:42] <elmo> hmm, where the hell did the binaries go
[04:43] <daniels> lamont: is the wanna-build tree from cvs.linux-m68k.org the most current one?
[04:43] <daniels> (or elmo, I suppose, since you're the nominal maintainer in debian/control :P)
[04:43] <elmo> ah, someone broke katie
[04:43] <elmo> daniels: no, db.debian.org/debian-admin
[04:43] <elmo> kamion: done download-installer
[04:43] <daniels> elmo: cheers
[04:43] <daniels> elmo: you might want to update buildd.d.o at some stage (or whoever's responsible for that)
[04:44] <daniels> elmo: er, db.d.o/d-a just gives the regular db.d.o page
[04:45] <elmo> kamion: should prop through in ~10 mins
[04:45] <daniels> elmo: (not on cvs or f-m either, afaict)

[04:46] <daniels> elmo: cheers
[04:51] <Kamion> elmo: ta
[04:53] <daniels> elmo: that source is missing wanna-build, fwiw (no w-b package for i386 in Packages.gz)
[05:02] <elmo> daniels: there's w-b for other platforms and it's mostly arch: all *shrug* and there's source 
[05:04] <daniels> elmo: yah, built it by hand

[05:13] <lamont> jbailey: stupid libc question for you...
[05:13] <jbailey> lamont: Sure. =)
[05:14] <lamont> why does the current hoary glibc hang on ia64 in threads tests? :-(
[05:14] <jbailey> lamont: I haven't looked at hoary's glibc stuff at all - is it pretty much what we have in Debian sid?
[05:15] <jbailey> (The difference being that I have seen a thread hang a couple of times, unreproducable with some hardcore tests in Debian sid's snapshot.  I've not seen them with recent glibc CVS snapshots)
[05:16] <elmo> lamont: works for me ?
[05:18] <lamont> elmo: and md5sum matches, etc?
=== jbailey thinks.
=== lamont will investigate more
[05:18] <jbailey> Is your ia64 box on a 2.6 kernel?
[05:18] <lamont> jbailey: atm, 2.3.2-13ubuntu3 - need to see how 2.3.2-18ubuntu1 does
[05:19] <elmo> god damn it
[05:19] <elmo> lamont: there's nothing I can do about that, we'll have to do a 2.2.3us1 or something
[05:19] <lamont> ew!
[05:19] <elmo> lamont: warty has a different .orig.tar.gz to hoary/sid
[05:19] <elmo> we can't fix warty, so ...
[05:19] <lamont> WTH!?
[05:19] <enrico> Hello.   Are there any meeings scheduled in #ubuntu-meeting on thursday?  We'd like to make a docteam meeting and I'm checking so that we don't stomp on other people's toes

[05:20] <lamont> jbailey: ah, ok. I'll track down exactly which test it is this time... amusingly enough, killing the test lets things finish...

[05:45] <sivang> anybody knows what with the wiki?
[05:45] <fabbione> pitti: no it doesn't yet
[05:45] <lamont> pitti: 2.2.3 was uploaded to warty.  and later to debian.  and the orig.tar.gz's don't match.
[05:45] <sivang> it's down again
[05:45] <fabbione> pitti: we are just building the first set of debs
[05:45] <lamont> so we get to be a different _upstream_ version number too.
[05:46] <pitti> lamont: no chance to put the upstream changes into a debian diff?

[05:48] <pitti> mdz: a couple of 'em :-)
[05:48] <pitti> mdz: I prepared advisories for groff and for xpdf/cupsys/tetex-bin
[05:49] <mdz> xpdf and tetex-bin are built
[05:49] <pitti> mdz: I put the latter ones into one advisory because it has a common cause
[05:49] <mdz> groff and cupsys are missing amd64
[05:49] <mdz> lamont: ?
[05:49] <pitti> hmm
[05:49] <lamont> pitti: problem is that we want debian's orig.tar.gz, and changing to that would require that we change warty, which is a no-no
[05:49] <lamont> mdz: yo
[05:49] <pitti> lamont: I understand
[05:50] <pitti> lamont: I uploaded some security updates today, but groff and cupsys did not build on amd64 yet
[05:50] <lamont> pitti: my only indecision is whether to call it 2.2.3ubuntu1-1 or 2.2.3ubuntu1-1ubuntu1
[05:50] <elmo> lamont: king isn't uploading right
[05:50] <pitti> lamont: I'd favor the first :-)
[05:50] <mdz> lamont: cupsys and groff security builds on amd64?
[05:51] <pitti> mdz: BTW, is there any chance I could verify such things on my own? I. e. read access to the build queue?
[05:51] <lamont> elmo: will check
[05:51] <lamont> pitti: build results go to security@ for -security uploads
[05:51] <pitti> mdz: BTW, https://chinstrap.warthogs.hbd.com/~pitti/ has the interdiffs and advisories
[05:52] <pitti> lamont: odd, I thought I received security@...
[05:52] <pitti> lamont: but obviously I don't
[05:52] <pitti> lamont: security@ meaning [email protected]?
[05:52] <pitti> mdz: did you get these mails to [email protected]? I don't
[05:53] <lamont> elmo: cron restarted on king

[05:57] <lamont> I don't _think_ mplayer drags anything in right now, but who knows..
[05:58] <Kamion> Uploading via ftp debian-installer_20041027ubuntu1_source.changes: done.
[05:58] <lamont> gal uploaded
[05:58] <|trey|> recommend in help for people that want to watch movies: yes/no?
[05:59] <Kamion> unwise to recommend that they add the whole line to sources.list
[05:59] <Kamion> retrieving individual .debs and installing with dpkg -i may work
[05:59] <lamont> |trey|: or grab the hoary source and build it on warty...
[05:59] <|trey|> Kamion, k... yeah, that sounds safest... like lamont said, its has no deps that I know of... so yeah  :)
[06:00] <lamont> |trey|: known to build on warty, but that got done after the release, and doesn't meet criteria for warty-updates
[06:00] <lamont> |trey|: so find a security bug in it, and we'll have an excuse to upload to warty-security. :)

[06:06] <lamont> ah, was fileutils.  has changed in debian to coreutils.
[06:06] <lamont> doh.
[06:06] <lamont> elmo: please sync miscfiles
[06:06] <pitti> lamont: are the amd64 packages in the queue now?

[06:14] <mdz> pitti: if you need to make multiple uploads, make sure that you amber them all, even if they're erroneous
[06:14] <mdz> pitti: this will cause the extra packages to be listed in the advisory template (unless elmo fixed that), but they shouldn't be left in the queue
[06:14] <elmo> yeah, that too
[06:15] <mdz> that was a bigger deal in Debian, where we had to worry about the .orig all the time
[06:15] <mdz> there are actually a lot fewer gotchas in ubuntu, I guess

[06:19] <T-Bone> lamont: looks like i'll be ready to test stage2 chroot anytime soon, the remaining non-built package being less than necessary (abiword and co)
[06:19] <pitti> elmo: you really mean amber 13-1 groff*.changes -n  (i. e. -n as the very last word)?
[06:19] <pitti> elmo: or amber 13-1 -n groff*.changes?
[06:19] <elmo> pitti: either works
[06:20] <elmo> pitti: the important thing is that the advisory number is first - due to a bug, amber insists on that (even if '-n' is the first thing)
[06:20] <Kamion> mdz: did you hear of a way to do ?action=raw in zwiki? I added it to WikiWishlist just in case ...
[06:20] <mdz> Kamion: no, I haven't
[06:20] <elmo> oh, wow, I'm so glad I didn't add that global redirect now..
[06:21] <mdz> elmo: you need to put some zsh in your pipe and smoke it
[06:21] <elmo> mdz: I use it at home, I just haven't gotten round to migrating my remote accounts
[06:22] <mdz> elmo: speaking of which, can you set my preferred shell in userdir-ldap to zsh?
[06:22] <fabbione> elmo: please i need rman installed on yellow and adare chroots
[06:22] <fabbione> elmo: i need to do a test build for X.org
[06:22] <elmo> eek, the buildd stuff doesn't prioritize it's builds 
[06:22] <elmo> SUCKage
[06:23] <elmo> fabbione: eh, adare doesn't even have a hoary chroot yet - or are you happy with warty?
[06:23] <doko> elmo: yellow has i386-hoary only, not amd64
[06:24] <fabbione> elmo: warty please
[06:24] <fabbione> elmo: i don't need hoary yet
[06:24] <fabbione> elmo: sorry i wasn't clear
[06:24] <elmo> doko: oh, sweet.. I forgot yellow had an i386 base.  rock on
[06:25] <elmo> doko: btw, has mdz talked to you about de-kdelib-ing gcc-3.4
[06:25] <elmo> fabbione: done - just freshening the chroots while I'm herte
[06:26] <mdz> I don't think I have, but now is as good a time as any
[06:26] <mdz> doko: you have a merge to do with gcc-3.4 anyway; you could do that at the same time
[06:26] <fabbione> elmo: thanks a lot!
[06:26] <elmo> aiee
[06:27] <mdz> pitti: I have added you as a moderator for u-s-a
[06:27] <mdz> pitti: one thing you need to be aware of
[06:27] <mdz> pitti: there are many broken mailers in the world
[06:27] <mdz> pitti: something which happens constantly is that copies of the advisory get fed back to the list itself
[06:27] <mdz> pitti: so be careful to only approve the one that you sent, and discard the rest
[06:27] <doko> mdz: do what with kdelib? it's built with 3.4?
[06:28] <elmo> doko: not build-depend on it :)
[06:28] <mdz> doko: remove the build-dependency on kdelibs
[06:28] <pitti> mdz: I already cursed at the millions of autoamted replies I got...
[06:28] <doko> ok
[06:28] <mdz> pitti: yes, I have a blacklist for that if you want it ;-)
[06:28] <pitti> mdz: nice :-) procmail based?
[06:28] <doko> could I have access to a powerpc hoary box for a gcc test build?
[06:28] <mdz> pitti: yes
[06:28] <mdz> over the years I have collected them from bogus bugtraq bounces
[06:28] <pitti> mdz: I would kill for it :-)
[06:29] <pitti> mdz: well, at least I would say "thank you" :-)
[06:29] <elmo> fabbione: all done
[06:29] <elmo> doko: I'll create a hoary chroot on adare
[06:29] <elmo> this one will actually be hoary too ;-)
[06:29] <fabbione> elmo: thanks!

=== hornbeck_ [[email protected]]  has joined #ubuntu-devel
[06:30] <daniels> lamont: http://fooishbar.org/daniel/syslinux/ -- it was reasonably complex and stuff has changed, so review would be nice
[06:30] <daniels> Kamion: ^^
[06:30] <elmo> lamont: buildd will take 10 packages, 9 universe one main, and not build the main one first - if you get a chance, and it's easy, might be nice to fix that
[06:31] <Kamion> daniels: 0.1ubuntu1 would be a better version number
[06:31] <Kamion> daniels: that way it isn't greater than any -0.2 that might happen to be uploaded to Debian
[06:33] <daniels> Kamion: *shrug* ask mdz
[06:34] <mdz> 0.1ubuntu1, 0ubuntu1, whatever
[06:34] <mdz> it's all hypothetical in the extreme
[06:34] <daniels> changed
[06:35] <pitti> mdz, elmo: ambering worked fine, thanks for the introduction and setup
[06:35] <pitti> mdz: I think we need to agree on an ML admin password, right?
[06:35] <Kamion> mdz: hypothetical?
[06:35] <pitti> mdz: I sent oht the advisories, but I have to approve them
[06:35] <Kamion> -0.2 for syslinux is quite likely
[06:35] <Kamion> given that the maintainer's fairly inactive
[06:35] <elmo> # UNCONFIGURED FSTAB FOR BASE SYSTEM
[06:35] <mdz> pitti: I am just extremely paranoid about amber because there were a lot of things to worry about in Debian, but it's much simpler here
[06:36] <elmo> always an encouraging thing to find at the top of an /etc/fstab of a production machine
[06:36] <Kamion> elmo: somebody just ran debootstrap and didn't finish the job, it seems ...
[06:36] <elmo> kamion: that's the root fs
[06:36] <pitti> mdz: the only gotcha that I found was that the presence or absence of '-n' does not really seem to make a difference
[06:36] <lamont> elmo: part of the whole 3 unequal but together suites mess I need to address.  But thanks - hadn't gotten that one yet.
[06:36] <elmo> pitti: ??
[06:37] <pitti> mdz, elmo: I used -n for groff, but the packages were installed anyway and I also got the template mail
[06:37] <mdz> pitti: I meant primarily with the uploads themselves.  in Debian, security was an entirely separate katie instance, so you had to remember to handle the .orig correctly, and there were no safeguards to ensure the version numbers were sane
[06:37] <elmo> dude, that's like so not possible
[06:37] <mdz> (relative to the main archive)
=== lamont really runs off for about an hour or so.
[06:37] <mdz> pitti: cut and paste the command line?
[06:37] <T-Bone> lamont: see ya
[06:38] <pitti> mdz: oh, right. As far as I can see, security.u.o and archive.u.o are more or less the same, right?
[06:38] <Kamion> daniels: in fact, 0ubuntu1 < 0.1, so definitely wrong :)
[06:38] <Kamion> daniels: with version 2.11-0.1ubuntu1, the diff looks otherwise fine to me
[06:38] <elmo> pitti: no, archive.u.c is one machine, security.u.o is two
[06:38] <elmo> they should appear the same tho, so the fact that you think they are is good ;-)
[06:39] <pitti> mdz, elmo: oh, I looked again in bash history, I typed the groff command twice, second one without -n. Alright then, sorry.
[06:39] <daniels> Kamion: cheers
[06:39] <pitti> mdz: can you send me an encrypted mail with the u-s-a moderator password?
[06:40] <mdz> pitti: is it possible to set a moderator password separate from the administrator password?
[06:40] <mdz> I think what I have is the admin password
[06:40] <pitti> mdz: I only found the list of admin/mod email addresses
[06:41] <pitti> mdz: when I go to .../admindb/u-s-a, it only asks for a password, and not for a kind of login
[06:41] <pitti> mdz: I already tried the password for ubuntu-de
[06:41] <pitti> @ALL: ANY MAILMAN GURU HERE?
[06:43] <pitti> mdz: I found it
[06:43] <pitti> mdz: on the main admin page, second menu point is "Passwords"
[06:43] <pitti> mdz: there you can set a moderator password
[06:44] <mdz> pitti: ok, send a signed&encrypted email with the password you would like
[06:44] <pitti> mdz: it's still only one password for all moderators, but better than nothing
[06:44] <mdz> pitti: or I can make a random one and send it to you
[06:44] <pitti> mdz: I'll mail you

[08:14] <mdz> ?
[08:14] <desp> mdz: I have ubuntu working on my oldworld
[08:15] <mdz> desp: great, do you have some patches for us?
[08:15] <mdz> what was the cause of the problem?
[08:15] <pitti> mdz: did you made any serious changes (apart from typos)? I can't spot them :-)
[08:15] <mdz> pitti: shift+reload, it's probably cached
[08:15] <mdz> pitti: you can also read the history
[08:16] <desp> the cause of the problem was that the generated initrd was left on the ext3 partition, and the BootX bootloader used on oldworld needed it on the Mac OS HFS partition
[08:16] <desp> so this is really not an issue, because the most difficult thing to do is getting the actual initrd file across the ext3/hfs barrier
[08:17] <desp> this is actually pretty hard, since there is no support for ext3 on Mac OS 9, and having booted from the ubuntu install CD, one can't mount a hfs partition.
[08:17] <pitti> mdz: a "debdiff" is a different thing for me than an "interdiff". debdiff checking is good, but it does not really help to concisely see code changes; I prefer an interdiff for this
[08:18] <mdz> it should be possible to use the live CD
[08:18] <mdz> pitti: er..have you used debdiff? :-)
[08:18] <pitti> mdz: yes
[08:18] <mdz> pitti: it does what interdiff does, plus more
[08:18] <pitti> mdz: so far I only used it with deb packages, though
[08:18] <mdz> pitti: you can run debdiff on two .dsc files

[08:52] <elmo> blink
[08:52] <lamont> because that looks right...
[08:53] <elmo> lamont: blah, sorry, yes, it's fine.  god damn, i just suck at parsing simple things today
=== lamont makes a note to buy elmo a beer and give him some sympathy in spain.
[08:58] <lamont> elmo: is the lene output fetchable (for each architecture, of course...)
[08:58] <lamont> ?
[08:58] <elmo> lamont: no, I could probably make it fetchable - LAN only tho, I'm afraid
[08:58] <elmo> (you're free to wget it on rookery, and dump it in your ~/public_html if you want tho)
[08:59] <elmo> I just can't expose jackass' apache
=== lamont meant to the buildd's.
[09:00] <lamont> although it might not be a bad thing to wget to rookery
[09:01] <elmo> lamont: why do the buildds want it?
[09:01] <fabbione> daniels: i uploaded xrender ubuntu2 to fix the build-dep
[09:01] <fabbione> elmo: when you have time (= no rush) i will need access to the hoary chroots on yellow and adare
[09:01] <lamont> elmo: _I_ want it.
[09:01] <fabbione> elmo: do you want a mail for it?
[09:01] <fabbione> X.org can't build on warty anymore
[09:01] <lamont> so that I can do givebacks as needed to deal with the 90%-working auto-depwaiter.
[09:08] <mdz> pitti_: I have not reviewed the package; what is your analysis?
=== lamont grabs his _11_ running SyncTest.exe's and looks around for doko./
[09:11] <lamont> elmo: so s/buildd/in-dc-lan/
[09:13] <lamont> elmo: automake1.9 needs some NEW love.
[09:13] <elmo> automake1.9 is what broke katie earlier - I'm looking at it
[09:20] <lamont> elmo: ah, ok.
[09:20] <doko> lamont: that's hppa only, doesn't count. I'll add some love^H^H^H^H killing to the tests
[09:20] <lamont> doko: heh.  thanks
[09:21] <lamont> doko: but don't do a special upload for that fix. :-)

[09:44] <mdz> hornbeck: not that I know of
[09:44] <mdz> they look the same to me, anyway
[09:45] <hornbeck> they look different on the box I just updated
[09:45] <hornbeck> maybe just my eys

[09:46] <elmo> mdz: have been for ages
[09:46] <mdz> elmo: ok. how frequently? daily?
[09:47] <elmo> mdz: yes
[09:47] <mdz> elmo: what time of day?
[09:47] <elmo> debian only updates that frequently?
[09:47] <mdz> elmo: so I have a bug which is fixed in the current Debian version.  At what time should I set a reminder to close the bug?

[10:00] <mdz> mako: ?
[10:00] <justdave> mdz: funny you should ask... mozilla.org wants that, too. :)

[10:19] <jdub> elmo, mdz: actually, i didn't tighten the list down
[10:19] <jdub> because all the mails are posted as the uploader
[10:19] <jdub> makes it hard
[10:20] <jdub> Kamion: heh
[10:22] <pitti_> mdz: back; re libarchive-zip-perl: the patch is from upstream and looks reasonable; however, I do not really consider a potential fooling of virus scanners as truly critical
[10:22] <pitti_> mdz: that's why I'm unsure whether to upload it
[10:22] <pitti_> mdz: there are probably a million ways to hide viruses from scanners anyway
[10:23] <pitti_> mdz: I think it's safe to upload, though
[10:24] <seb128> jdub: do we want hoary really usuable or that's a really a devel tree ? The new metacity (2.9.0) has switched the focus stealing prevention on again, but since some apps are still bugged that's a bit annoying to use ...
=== lamont giggles as he notices things accidentally get fixed in warty. :-(
[10:26] <seb128> arg, can't build yelp
[10:26] <doko> mdz, pitti: For debian unstable I need the patch for mailscanner, that's why I noticed it. libarchive-zip-perl is in main, so I prepared the patch for warty. do we want to have something like volatile?
[10:26] <seb128> some GNOME stuff use libgcrypt7-dev, libxslt1-dev wants libgcrypt11-dev
[10:27] <seb128> time to transition to gnutls11 I guess
[10:28] <pitti> doko, mdz: if warty-updates would work, I would prefer putting the package there
[10:28] <pitti> doko: I do not feel that this is really critical for warty, that's why I still hesitate to upload it
[10:28] <pitti> doko: BTW, is it already fixed in Hoary?
[10:29] <doko> pitti: agreed, even gentoo marked it as low urgency
[10:29] <doko> yes, hoary has 1.14
[10:30] <lamont> seb128: transition to gcrypt11 is on my list if you don't get there first...  (or was that gnutls11...?)
[10:31] <seb128> both gnutls/gcrypt
[10:31] <lamont> seb128: heh. that was it, then. :-)

[10:47] <seb128> let me check
[10:47] <jdub> with the evo packages?
=== lamont gets asked if openafs-* can make it into main for hoary.
[10:47] <jdub> i had some problems too
[10:47] <jdub> apt-get -f install worked though
[10:47] <jdub> lamont: eeek
[10:47] <lamont> mdz: can't remember if openafs makes baby jesus cry or not.
[10:48] <mdz> jdub: "worked"
[10:48] <seb128> jdub: yes, this was with the debian version, should be fixed with the new upload ...
[10:48] <mdz> lamont: yes
[10:48] <mdz> lamont: it doesn't even work with 2.6 yet
[10:48] <seb128> mdz: which packages/files conflicts ?
[10:48] <mdz> seb128: sent you email
[10:48] <jdub> lamont: head spinning, green goo flying, etc.
[10:48] <seb128> ok
[10:48] <mdz> seb128: libedataserver3 has conflicts/replaces e-d-s << 1.0
[10:48] <lamont> mdz: fixed upstream in 1.3.37
[10:49] <mdz> seb128: but it conflicts with later versions than that still
[10:49] <seb128> mdz: I've updated the conflicts to 1.0.2, 1.0.0 was good for debian but we splitted later
[10:50] <mdz> hm, maybe it isn't built yet
[10:50] <mdz> but that was hours ago, wasn't it?
[10:50] <seb128> yes
=== bob2 [[email protected]]  has joined #ubuntu-devel
[10:50] <mdz> the version being unpacked was 1.0.2-2ubuntu2
[10:50] <seb128> about 15min after you pinged me with the conflict
[10:51] <seb128> that's the fixed one
[10:51] <mdz> mizar:[~]  apt-cache show libedataserver3 | grep-dctrl -sVersion,Replaces,Conflicts ''
[10:51] <mdz> Version: 1.0.2-2ubuntu2

[10:51] <mdz> Conflicts: evolution-data-server (<< 1.0.0)
[10:51] <mdz> looks exactly the same as the previous version
[10:51] <seb128> Conflicts: evolution-data-server (<< 1.0.2-1)
[10:51] <seb128> Replaces: evolution-data-server (<< 1.0.2-1)
[10:51] <seb128> in my debian/control
[10:51] <mdz> seb128: what version?
[10:51] <mdz> I thought 1.0.2-2ubuntu2 was the fixed one
[10:51] <mdz> according to the changelog
[10:52] <seb128> should be, I'm updating
[10:53] <mdz> seb128: control.in has 1.0.2, but control has 1.0.0
[10:54] <seb128> mdz: oups, -2ubuntu3 on its way ...
[10:54] <mdz> thanks

=== herzi_lap [[email protected]]  has joined #ubuntu-devel
[11:01] <jdub> mdz: that only seemed to happen for you
[11:02] <jdub> mdz: perhaps killing nautilus would help
[11:02] <mdz> I find that very hard to believe
[11:02] <mdz> jdub: I have logged out and logged back in
[11:02] <jdub> who else has upgraded to -calendar-november?
[11:02] <mdz> I think this is the same breakage that scott and I kept running into when messing with the backgorund stuff
[11:02] <mdz> sometimes it just decides not to update ~/.gnome2/backgrounds.xml
[11:03] <jdub> mdz: that'll be out of scope for u-c releases then
[11:03] <mdz> jdub: it's in scope for hoary
[11:03] <jdub> hrm, i should do hoary releases of those, too
[11:04] <srbaker_> anyone here done any packaging of mono apps?
[11:05] <mdz> srbaker: tseng
[11:05] <srbaker_> tseng, around?
[11:05] <pitti> mdz: can you please review #3131 (patch and advisory text)? TIA
[11:05] <srbaker_> mdz, apparently mono apps like to install in /usr/lib/<prog> and they're supposed to go in /usr/share/dotnet/<prog>/
[11:05] <jdub> mdz: probably best to file a bug and provide a strace or something; i'm not going to be able to fix it
[11:06] <mdz> pitti: how is $TMPLIB generated?
[11:07] <pitti> mdz: the usual insanity with $$
[11:07] <mdz> pitti: ok, as long as it isn't static, otherwise it's an easy DoS
[11:07] <mdz> pitti: patch looks fine
[11:07] <pitti> mdz: but since it is a directory, checking that mkdir is successful should be safe
[11:07] <pitti> mdz: I thought about using mktemp -d, but it is not portable
[11:07] <mdz> pitti: on the text, s/allowed/could allow/
[11:10] <pitti> mdz: otherwise okay?
[11:10] <mdz> pitti: yes

[11:31] <jdub> hoary uploads :)
[11:31] <seb128> oh
[11:32] <jdub> should i work on a few 2.9 upgrades while you're asleep?
[11:32] <jdub> looks like evo's on its way in atm
=== bob2 [[email protected]]  has joined #ubuntu-devel
[11:32] <seb128> if you want, but I can manage them tomorrow
[11:33] <seb128> I just don't want to break evo before going to sleep so I'm doing them tonight
[11:33] <jdub> cool
[11:33] <seb128> s/I'm doing/I'm *not* doing/
[11:33] <jdub> heh
[11:34] <seb128> BTW yelp has been accepted but gnome-doc-utils is probably stucked in NEW
[11:34] <seb128> elmo: ? :)
=== srbaker__ [[email protected]]  has joined #ubuntu-devel
[11:37] <jdub> elmo, mdz: would it be better to sync u-c uploads from warty-updates to hoary, or upload new ones?
[11:37] <seb128> jdub: so we really want metacity 2.9.0 ? :)
[11:39] <seb128> I've it ready to upload, but I fear some people will not be happy, little focus problems are very annoying sometime :)
[11:39] <jdub> seb128: sooner people use it, the sooner it'll get fixed :)
[11:39] <seb128> right
[11:39] <seb128> GO GO GO
[11:39] <jdub> ;)
[11:39] <seb128> I don't fear the bug reports :)
[11:39] <jdub> we'll just mark them all UPSTREAM ;)
[11:40] <seb128> ah ah, true :p
[11:40] <seb128> BTW do you have this gstreamer crash ?
[11:41] <seb128> supposed to be ubuntu specific, but no problem here and the packages have no significant changes ...
[11:43] <jdub> seb128: haven't seen it :|
=== hazmat [[email protected]]  has joined #ubuntu-devel
[11:48] <seb128> ok
[11:48] <seb128> that's not really and evo is out
[11:48] <seb128> let's go with the evo stack NOW
[11:48] <seb128> I'll sleep a bit later tomorrow :p
[11:48] <seb128> (doh, today was a supposed to be not working day here :p)
[11:50] <jdub> heh
[11:50] <carlos> seb128: that's the problem with us, we are too work addicts :-P
[11:50] <seb128> carlos: to be honest I can't wait to get all the cool stuff in 2.9 :)
[11:51] <jdub> me too :-)
[11:51] <carlos> seb128: are there so many changes with 2.9.1?
[11:51] <seb128> a bunch of good ones yes
[11:51] <seb128> the new mountapplet in GNOME applets
[11:52] <seb128> metacity as focus stealing prevention back
[11:52] <jdub> gtk+ 2.5
[11:52] <seb128> that too
[11:52] <seb128> I like the extensions chooser in epiphany too :)
[11:52] <seb128> you can turn on/off the extensions you want to use in the UI
[11:53] <jdub> cool
[11:53] <carlos> jdub: when is the GNOME feature freeze?
[11:53] <jdub> carlos: jan 10th
[11:53] <jdub> perfect timing for the ubuntu conference ;)
[11:53] <carlos> so hoary will have the freeze before GNOME?
[11:54] <jdub> hoary will have upstream version freeze, yeah
[11:54] <jdub> but that's independent of GNOME in hoary
[11:54] <carlos> yes, I know, I was talking about "global system freeze"
[11:55] <mdz> seb128: don't worry about breaking evo; it seems broken already (for new users) ;-)
[11:56] <seb128> mdz: oh yes, I've some mails about evo freezing but no idea of the problem for the moment 
[11:56] <mdz> seb128: I am able to reproduce it easily here
[11:56] <mdz> it spins
[11:57] <jdub> carlos: our UpstreamVersionFreeze is before GNOME's feature freeze (but doesn't effect GNOME), our FeatureFreeze is one month after GNOME's
[11:57] <seb128> I'll work on this tomorrow so (if 2.1.0 doesn't fix that)
[11:59] <jdub> mdz: good solution from Niall Sheridan re: ipv6
