[12:40] <ademan> there's no *.dsc file in my deb directory
[12:40] <crimsun> what's with the versioning?
[12:40] <geser> it's normaly in the dir with the .orig.tar.gz and .diff.gz
[12:41] <crimsun> 3.1.1-0ubuntu1-1  <-
[12:44] <geser> hello crimsun
[12:44] <crimsun> hi geser
[12:45] <LaserJock> haha, the opensuse thing on -devel is awesome
[12:45] <ademan> crimsun: i dunno, i gave it 3.1.1-0ubuntu1 and it tacked on the -1
[12:45] <geser> crimsun: is it acceptable to backport a package from feisty to {dapper|edgy}-updates? it's for bug 72921

[12:45] <geser> or should I try to collect the patches?
[12:46] <ademan> geser: yeah but its the OLD desc
[12:46] <ademan> do i need to modify it somehow?
[12:46] <zul> geez this cant be good..
[12:46] <LaserJock> geser: -security and -updates gets more users
[12:46] <LaserJock> geser: -backports is easier
[12:47] <geser> is -backports the right place for security updates?
[12:47] <LaserJock> not particularly
[12:47] <geser> I'd like to avoid to hunt for the patches
[12:48] <geser> ademan: the new .dsc gets generated when you build the new source package
[12:49] <crimsun> geser: -security is, ideally.
[12:50] <ademan> geser: how do i build it without the new dsc though?
[12:51] <geser> I'm currently trying to find out if a new upstream version (bugfix release) would be acceptable for -security
[12:51] <geser> ademan: run dpkg-buildpackage -S -rfakeroot inside the package dir
[12:51] <crimsun> geser: backport if at all possible.
[12:52] <crimsun> geser: the exception I'm considering is for something like flashplugin-nonfree, which _has_ to pull down a new upstream version
[12:56] <ademan> geser alright, and i want to get this updated package into the repositories, what do i submit to where?
[12:58] <geser> ademan: does it build in a feisty pbuilder?
[12:58] <ademan> geser: so i would need to dpkg-buildpackage then proceed to pbuilder build TheDscFile.dsc   ?
[12:59] <ademan> and i dunno, i'm interested in getting it into edgy, its an IMPORTANT bugfix
[01:00] <crimsun> does it build, install, function correctly, and deinstall correctly in an edgy pbuilder, then?
[01:01] <ademan> well, when i ran dpkg-buildpackage   i got this: http://rafb.net/paste/results/nz9Rn630.html    it looks like i need a gpg key or something?
[01:03] <geser> does somebody know a good place to find patches for reported CVEs?
[01:04] <geser> ademan: looks ok
[01:04] <geser> since you can't upload it, it's no problem with the missing gpg key
[01:04] <crimsun> geser: Debian BTS & upstream rcs
[01:04] <zul> geser: mitre
[01:05] <ademan> geser: i can't upload it? well ok then i'll procceed to the pbuilder build and i'll get back to yo uguys (i'm goin to lunch first)
[01:05] <ademan> thanks a lot
[01:06] <geser> ademan: you need to be a motu to upload to ubuntu universe
[01:07] <ademan> geser: so i can't even upload for review or anything?
[01:07] <azeem> bddebian: sorry, where did you have the bkchem packages again?
[01:07] <crimsun> ademan: if you've followed the directions for REVU, you can upload there
[01:07] <ademan> crimsun: even though its not a new package?
[01:07] <crimsun> azeem: sorry about the spam for Ubuntu Feisty's xmakemol; I'll check with infinity to see if it's intentional given the maintainer field
[01:08] <crimsun> ademan: then file a bug against the source package using LP, and link us to the bug #
[01:08] <ademan> the bugs been around for a while
[01:08] <crimsun> ademan: then attach your debdiff and build log to the (main) existing bug report

[01:17] <bddebian> azeem: OK, sorry
[01:31] <Adri2000> geser: when you file a bug report for a merge, the debdiffs are from the last ubuntu version?
[01:33] <geser> I usually provide a debdiff from the last debian version and one from the last ubuntu version (only if same upstream version)
[01:34] <geser> I don't know which of the two debdiffs crimsun prefers
[01:34] <Adri2000> okay
[01:36] <Adri2000> crimsun: here? do you need both debdiffs?
[01:37] <crimsun> geser: I generally go with whichever requires pulling fewer bytes over the 'net
[01:37] <crimsun> geser: really, it doesn't matter; I end up working with whatever the reporter provides
[01:38] <crimsun> Adri2000: (see above)

[01:50] <geser> currently I'm waiting for the Council Greyskull to get formed
[01:50] <nixternal> crimsun: if there is a package that has the potential to cause damage to the sudoers file in dapper and edgy, what is the proper procedure?
[01:50] <nixternal> i am talking about smb4k
[01:51] <nixternal> i am fixing the feisty version now and will upload to review shortly
[01:51] <nixternal> bug 72065 to be exact
[01:51] <Ubugtu> Malone bug 72065 in smb4k "smb4k screwed the sudoers sudo command no longer available! " [High,Confirmed]  http://launchpad.net/bugs/72065
[01:53] <crimsun> nixternal: that would be critical, not high
[01:53] <nixternal> hmm..i thought it was critical
[01:53] <nixternal> just noticed that as well
[01:54] <crimsun> if you have a fix for it, make a debdiff for it ASAP so we can push it into -proposed
[01:54] <nixternal> it is a new upstream release
[01:54] <nixternal> 0.7.5
[01:54] <crimsun> nixternal: backport the fix if at all possible
[01:55] <nixternal> you mean package it for edgy and dapper as well?
[01:55] <crimsun> nixternal: generate debdiffs for whichever packages are affected, with expendiency toward 6.06.1 LTS
[01:55] <crimsun> [I generally place highest priority on bugs that affect dapper]
[01:55] <nixternal> roger
[01:56] <nixternal> gotta build a dapper env
[01:56] <Adri2000> crimsun: thanks :)
[01:56] <crimsun> Adri2000: np
[02:29] <nixternal> crimsun: should i attach that debdiff for dapper to the bug?
[02:29] <nixternal> assuming that i did it correct (it did test build here though)
[02:30] <crimsun> nixternal: sure. Unless you want me to wave my hands and guess. :-)
[02:30] <nixternal> haha
[02:30] <nixternal> it is uploading to the bug now
[02:30] <nixternal> one sec
[02:36] <lastnode> crimsun, we're just about to release 0.2, if you'd like to do some testing, you know where to come ;-)

[02:37] <nixternal> yup
[02:37] <crimsun> nixternal: will you isolate just the bugfix for that issue, please?
[02:38] <nixternal> went from 0.6.5 in dapper to 0.7.5
[02:38] <nixternal> i think that is beyond my skills at this time
[02:38] <crimsun> we can't drop new upstream versions into -updates randomly
[02:46] <nixternal> cd ../
[02:46] <nixternal> derrr

[02:52] <nixternal> someone get a chance, revu that and try to get it up asap for feisty ;)
[02:53] <crimsun> is 0.7.5 even released?
[02:54] <nixternal> he hasn't put it up yet, he emailed it to me though
[02:55] <crimsun> you're supposed to use LP for existing packages, btw.
[02:56] <lastnode> woah dejavu
[03:01] <nixternal> use lp for new upstream releases as well?
[03:02] <crimsun> yes, if the package already exists in Ubuntu, don't use revu
[03:02] <nixternal> ahhh
[03:02] <crimsun> ->dinner
[03:02] <nixternal> see, everyone tells me to put it on revu
[03:02] <nixternal> thats it..im only listening to crimsun from now on
[03:02] <nixternal> hahaha
[03:02] <nixternal> i will listen to ajmitch too
[03:03] <nixternal> but thats it

[03:47] <LaserJock> I wish this Open Week wasn't cloaked in OpenSuse politics :/
[03:48] <LaserJock> I was all enthusiastic about it until Mark's post
[03:49] <ajmitch> & the ensuing thread on the opensuse list where mark posted it...
[03:50] <LaserJock> Hobbsee: I'm not sure
[03:50] <LaserJock> I suppose I'll go along
[03:50] <LaserJock> as I think it's a good thing
[03:50] <LaserJock> I just don't like the opensuse stuff surrounding it
[03:51] <ajmitch> it's at a rather bad time for me
[03:51] <LaserJock> yeah, that's what I thought
[03:52] <LaserJock> the week in particular or the times?
[03:52] <ajmitch> times
[03:52] <Hobbsee> right, what'd i miss?
[03:52] <Hobbsee> indeed
[03:52] <Hobbsee> 2-8am here

[03:55] <LaserJock> unfortunately so
[03:55] <LaserJock> I just can't imagine what he was thinking :/
[03:56] <ajmitch> if he was

[03:57] <LaserJock> poningru: did you read Mark's blog?
[03:57] <poningru> sabdfl didnt send the email to opensuse ml did he?

[03:58] <LaserJock> yes

[04:01] <joejaxx> LaserJock: does sudo dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/hda
[04:01] <joejaxx> do what i think it does?
[04:01] <LaserJock> I'd kinda think so, I've never tried it
[04:04] <plugwash> if what you think it does is cover /dev/hda1 in psuedorandom data then yes
[04:05] <plugwash> for most perposes just overwriting with zeros will be perfectly sufficiant and much faster though
[04:06] <plugwash> and finally remember that modern hard drives remap weak sectors, so overwriting every sector visible to the controller is no gaurantee you've overwritten every sector on the platter
[04:06] <joejaxx> yeah that is what i thought
[04:07] <joejaxx> it overwrites your hard drive
[04:08] <zelda276> you should be overwriting the hd multiple times
[04:11] <joejaxx> can a /win 19
[04:11] <joejaxx> bah
[04:12] <plugwash> zelda276 if you are trying to hide stuff from someone who would go to the time and expense of platter level data recovery you are better off destroying the drive
[04:13] <joejaxx> plugwash: yeah
[04:13] <joejaxx> opening up the hard drive
[04:13] <joejaxx> and smashing the platters
[04:14] <plugwash> nah sand off the magnetic material
[04:14] <plugwash> and then dump what comes off in strong acid just to make sure
[04:14] <joejaxx> true
[04:14] <zelda276> plugwash: agreed. although the microwave is more entertaining
[04:14] <joejaxx> LaserJock: hahaha that is funny
[04:14] <joejaxx> LaserJock: can what you do in a chroot environment damange the outside system?
[04:15] <plugwash> i heared a white phosphorus grenade is also considered reasonablly effective if time is of the essense
[04:15] <plugwash> joejaxx yes, root in a chroot is still root and can still do everything that root can normally do
[04:16] <joejaxx> interesting

[04:35] <Hobbsee> why do i get http://pastebin.ca/257273 - ie, how can i fix it?
[04:37] <Fujitsu> The easiest way to fix it is to not use dodgy specialised-preprocessor-requiring toolkits.
[04:37] <Hobbsee> heh

[09:20] <ademan> do i then procceed to do the pbuilder build ?
[09:21] <Sp4rKy> yes
[09:21] <Sp4rKy> if your dep packages exists in repo, it should be updated with the pbuilder update command
[09:22] <ademan> hrm, well after doing pbuilder update i ended up with this: http://rafb.net/paste/results/rqXPYs77.html  (well thats the pbuilder build)
[09:22] <ademan> i'm sorry i feel i'm pretty ignorant of all this, but i have been reading the relevant materials, i just haven't been grasping them very well
[09:23] <DarkMageZ> is universe enabled in your pbuilder?
[09:23] <Sp4rKy> seems not
[09:24] <Sp4rKy> ademan: you probably didn't added the universe repo in your pbuilder
[09:24] <ademan> how might i go about that?

[09:26] <Sp4rKy> and my debian/copyright file is http://paste.sos-sts.com/?35
[09:27] <Sp4rKy> must i add some lines in debian/coppyright before remove the othere file from the deb (lintian warn me about it)
[09:29] <Sp4rKy> ?
[09:33] <ademan> hrm i think my package is actually building, sweet
[09:33] <ademan> Sp4rKy: i wish i could help but honestly i haven't a clue, as you can tell, i'm lost and bewildered :-)
[09:34] <imbrandon> Sp4rKy: yes all copyright info needs to be in debian/copyright
[09:34] <imbrandon> no matter what the license is
[09:36] <Sp4rKy> ademan: :)
[09:36] <Sp4rKy> imbrandon: in fact, my question should be "is the same licence" :)
[09:36] <Sp4rKy> s/is/are
[09:36] <imbrandon> Sp4rKy: what ?
[09:36] <Sp4rKy> i don't really see the difference between the 2 licences
[09:37] <imbrandon> what two ?
[09:37] <Sp4rKy> those of the file in package & those of debian/changelog
[09:37] <ademan> also, i want this package i'm building to make it into universe (its an upstream update for the eclipse-cdt package which fixes a major incompatibility issue) what do i need to do to get this package reviewed and hopefully into universe?
[09:37] <imbrandon> Sp4rKy: it dosent matter , they are not the exact word for word, byte for byte the same
[09:37] <imbrandon> they must be listed
[09:38] <ademan> the reviewing is pretty important imho, since i'm well intentioned, but clearly quite clueless
[09:39] <imbrandon> ademan: https://wiki.kubuntu.org/MOTU/Packages/REVU
[09:39] <ademan> imbrandon: i was told thats only for NEW packages, not updates
[09:39] <Sp4rKy> ademan: you need to put in in revu.tauware.de
[09:39] <imbrandon> ahh is its an update then it needs to go on malone
[09:39] <ademan> Sp4rKy: the actual deb? or a debdiff or what?
[09:39] <Sp4rKy> ademan: revu is needed for twice
[09:39] <Sp4rKy> the actual
[09:41] <imbrandon> ademan: the debdiff
[09:41] <imbrandon> Sp4rKy: NO
[09:41] <imbrandon> i just said that updates dont go on revu
[09:41] <imbrandon> updates go as debdiff's on malone , and ubuntu-universe-sponsors are subscribed
[09:42] <Sp4rKy> oups
[09:43] <ademan> malone = the bug system?
[09:44] <Sp4rKy> yep
[09:44] <TheMuso> Hey imbrandon.

[09:44] <TheMuso> Heya ajmitch.
[09:44] <ajmitch> hi TheMuso
[09:44] <ademan> so i'd attach just the debdiff to a bugreport comment? how could i get attention for it?
[09:45] <ademan> because its fairly urgent for me, i NEED my C/C++ development environment back
[09:45] <Sp4rKy> subscribe ubuntu-universe-sponsore
[09:45] <ademan> ah ok
[09:45] <ademan> well i'm off to bed for now
[09:46] <ademan> thanks all
[09:46] <ademan> i'll hopefully have this done by noon tomorow

[10:00] <ajmitch> good, who's doing it?
[10:36] <poningru> ajmitch: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuOpenWeek
[10:42] <ajmitch> poningru: yes?
[10:43] <ajmitch> StevenK: happy birthday to linda ;)
[10:45] <imbrandon> :)
[10:48] <StevenK> (Oh dear God, has it been 5 years?)
[10:48] <imbrandon> robbing the cradle StevenK
[10:48] <StevenK> Speak for yourself.
[10:48] <imbrandon> heh
[10:50] <imbrandon> and feisty tomarrow ?
[10:50] <StevenK> "Tomorrow"? I don't think so. :-P
[10:50] <imbrandon> :)
[10:50] <enyc> nilson: /YUO SUCCEEDING/
[10:50] <enyc> argh
[10:50] <enyc> nilson: ?you succeeding?
[10:53] <ajmitch> imbrandon: nah, tonight
[10:53] <imbrandon> ajmitch: :)
[10:54] <imbrandon> hrm i think i might mess with linux on my usb stick for a little while, to see if i get some motovation
[10:54] <imbrandon> to do something constructive
[11:03] <poningru> imbrandon: hehe working on that myself
[11:04] <poningru> using grubfor win to make a bootable usb without bios option to do so
[11:53] <ajmitch> I can't believe that person did a reminder spam on the ubuntu-devel list...
[11:53] <Burgundavia> ajmitch: after his first email, indeed
[11:53] <Burgundavia> ajmitch: an interesting day, no?
[11:54] <ajmitch> yeah
[11:54] <ajmitch> I think he needs a little etiquette education
[11:55] <ajmitch> hi ogra
[11:55] <ogra> hey
[11:55] <Burgundavia> I considered posting something similar back in early Nov, but then realized it was crackish and dropped it
[11:55] <Burgundavia> hey ogra
[11:55] <imbrandon> moins Burgundavia and ogra
[11:55] <Burgundavia> hey imbrandon
[11:55] <ogra> :)
[11:57] <lucas> what's the state of this "proprietary drivers in the default install" decision ? any URL confirming it ?
[11:57] <Burgundavia> ogra: your boss be stirring the pot a wee smidgen while you were travelling
[11:57] <Burgundavia> lucas: spec is still at pending approval
[11:57] <lucas> ok
[11:58] <ogra> Burgundavia, well, whats wrong with providing an open day to people wiling to switch ?
[11:58] <Burgundavia> ogra: the manner is which the announcement was made
[11:58] <ogra> he's just honest ...
[11:58] <ajmitch> and tactless
[11:59] <ogra> better than being a tactful liar
[11:59] <Burgundavia> I would disagree
[11:59] <Burgundavia> society functions because people treat each other politely
[11:59] <Burgundavia> I consider Marks post a violation of the spirit, if not hte letter, of the CoC
[11:59] <Burgundavia> the "treat other people respectfully" part
[12:00] <ogra> where is he treating anyone unrespectful ?
[12:01] <Burgundavia> by attempting to poach users directly from suse, on their own mailing lists
[12:01] <ogra> i dont see your point, he doesnt say SuSE is bad, he just says we're open if you want to come ...
[12:02] <Burgundavia> jpr said it well: You can try and dress it up all you want, but you're an intelligent
[12:02] <Burgundavia> person and you knew exactly what you were doing when you sent this and I
[12:02] <Burgundavia> doubt the motive was not pure.
[12:02] <Burgundavia> http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse/2006-11/msg03788.html
[12:03] <ogra> still, he didnt attack anyone or be unrespectful to anyone in a direct manner ... i dont see the CoC violation you try to make up
[12:03] <Burgundavia> so it is ok if random distros start posting on our mailing lists, saying their distro is more free and we should go work on them?
[12:03] <ogra> he just sent a polite invitation to the devs
[12:03] <ogra> sure it is
[12:03] <Burgundavia> would you not consider that disrespect? I would
[12:04] <ogra> nexenta is doing that quite often for example ... and they are not even a linux distro
[12:04] <Burgundavia> yes, and nobody really likes them for it
[12:04] <Burgundavia> Jamie McCracken of Tracker does it as well
[12:04] <Burgundavia> it grates
[12:04] <ajmitch> they aren't doing it in a tone of "look, canonical has screwed you over"
[12:04] <ogra> but i dont consider it a CoC violation in any way
[12:05] <Burgundavia> "We
[12:05] <Burgundavia>       expect members of the Ubuntu community to be respectful when
[12:05] <Burgundavia>       dealing with other contributors as well as with people outside
[12:05] <Burgundavia>       the Ubuntu project and with users of Ubuntu."
[12:05] <Burgundavia> https://launchpad.net/codeofconduct/1.0.1
[12:05] <ogra> it could have been written more sensible but that still doesnt make it a CoC vioation
[12:06] <Burgundavia> " Ubuntu and Free Software are about collaboration and working together."
[12:06] <Burgundavia> that post is not about working together
[12:07] <Burgundavia> Mark also violates the "When you disagree" and "When you are unsure" sections
[12:08] <ogra> ??
[12:08] <Burgundavia> espeically the 2nd
[12:08] <Burgundavia> I do not see mdz or jono saying yes
[12:08] <ogra> jono organized the event ...
[12:08] <Burgundavia> with that specific goal in mind?
[12:08] <ogra> and mdz doesnt disagree apparently
[12:09] <Burgundavia> wow
[12:09] <Burgundavia> I am fucking stunned
[12:10] <Burgundavia> if Mark had said in his blog "We welcome all developers" and not posted to the opensuse, I consider that above the board
[12:11] <Burgundavia> that is extending an invitation, not conducting a raid
[12:11] <StevenK> Ouch.
[12:12] <Burgundavia> because, ultimately, we use Ubuntu because it rocks, not because $OTHER_DISTRO sucks|has issues|has dumb management
[12:13] <elkbuntu> ogra, i think im on the same page as Burgundavia here. it's not the open day or it's actual purpose that is the objectional thing. it's the way the blog post/list mail was done.
[12:13] <ogra> he said "come over if you think $OTHER_DISTRO sucks"
[12:13] <StevenK> I also agree with Burgundavia/elkbuntu.
[12:13] <ogra> he didnt say "because $OTHER_DISTRO sucks come over"
[12:14] <Burgundavia> I would disagree with you there
[12:14] <elkbuntu> ogra, actually, he did. he said '$other_distro sucks because they've become MS's lapdog'
[12:14] <ogra> elkbuntu, can you show me that quote ?
[12:14] <imbrandon> right, and also look at too that jono did the event and those of us talking ( that i know of ) arent targeting suse, mark just oversteped his wording when he invited them
[12:14] <ogra> he surely didnt use these words ...
[12:14] <elkbuntu> ogra, can you show me either of your quotes?
[12:15] <elkbuntu> imbrandon, the overstep is the bit we're pissed about
[12:15] <ogra> nope, i didnt quote
[12:15] <elkbuntu> ogra, actually your first thing said 'he said'
[12:15] <ajmitch> imbrandon: right now it looks like the only reason for the open week is to attract suse people
[12:15] <imbrandon> elkbuntu: but thats one persons invitation, not the event tits self, if you dont like it tell him
[12:15] <Burgundavia> imbrandon: when that one person is the single most important person in our distro, it tarnishes the event completely
[12:15] <imbrandon> ajmitch: thats because mostly everyone reads marks post, go back and read the event release from jono
[12:15] <elkbuntu> imbrandon, you're like disagreeing with me by agreeing with me.
[12:16] <ajmitch> imbrandon: considering that's the only announcement of the event I've seen
[12:16] <ajmitch> imbrandon: where did jono announce it?
[12:16] <elkbuntu> ajmitch, jono blogged maybe 24 hours before
[12:16] <Hobbsee> ajmitch: on planet
[12:16] <ajmitch> just planet?
[12:16] <imbrandon> ajmitch: jono announced it a day ago
[12:16] <elkbuntu> that however doesnt improve mark's announcement/invitation/whatever in the least
[12:16] <crimsun> [I don't read planet.uc regularly, though]
[12:17] <Burgundavia> Mark also implies that our house is completely clean, while in fact with binary drivers and Launchpad, we are in a bit of glass house right now
[12:17] <imbrandon> on the wiki and planet, same as mark, the only diffrence is the words mark choose when he invited a group that he thought would benifet, i agree it was kinda fubard but most of the discontent from the suse side was the wording , not the content
[12:17] <ajmitch> Burgundavia: and getting worse each release
[12:18] <ajmitch> there are a number of people less than happy with the binary driver issue & the lack of discussion so far
[12:18] <imbrandon> elkbuntu: thats the thing , marks wasent an announcement either is was an ill worded invatation
[12:18] <ajmitch> if it were done by someone else, it'd be accurately called trolling :)
[12:18] <TheMuso> ajmitch: Does binary driver stuff include open source wireless drivers with binary firmware, such as the ipw series of cards?
[12:19] <elkbuntu> imbrandon, tomayto tomarto
[12:19] <ajmitch> TheMuso: that's always been accepted with no discussion
[12:19] <Burgundavia> TheMuso: to a certain extent. I consider binary wireless and networking drivers to be an issue
[12:19] <imbrandon> elkbuntu: that makes a diffrence though
[12:19] <elkbuntu> imbrandon, it still stinks
[12:19] <Burgundavia> TheMuso: however, the needed functionality is critical
[12:19] <Burgundavia> what Mark should be doing is funding work to remove the need for those drivers
[12:19] <imbrandon> elkbuntu: right but bitching about the wrong thing dosent help any , infact it makes it worse
[12:20] <TheMuso> Burgundavia: Yeah. But we had to ask Intel whether we could re-distribute the firmware right?
[12:20] <Burgundavia> TheMuso: I am not certain. I know broadcom is refusing to budge
[12:20] <elkbuntu> imbrandon, shutting up about something that we feel isnt right doesnt work either.
[12:20] <Burgundavia> imbrandon: the issue is, the announcement has been made. Now we (the community) have to deal with the fallout
[12:20] <admin123> i'm in search of packages that use debconf templates
[12:20] <admin123> does anyone have some good package examples
[12:20] <imbrandon> elkbuntu: i in no way shape or form said shut up about it, hell voice your opinions loudly, i just was offiering that you direct them constructively
[12:21] <Hobbsee> imbrandon: what constructive way is there to voice our opinions?
[12:21] <crimsun> admin123: flashplugin-nonfree does.
[12:21] <admin123> crimsun, something that invokes processbar perhaps?
[12:21] <ajmitch> Hobbsee: the official channels are TB & CC meetings
[12:21] <crimsun> admin123: no
[12:22] <admin123> crimsun, no what?
[12:22] <Burgundavia> ajmitch: how do you censure somebody that sits on both?
[12:22] <imbrandon> Hobbsee: well Burgundavia did so to some extent as he has the same reach on planet as the marks post, also talk with mark, privately or publicly, also email suse list yourself and voice how YOU think it should go etc etc etc, invite fedora too ( in a PC way ) etc etc etc
[12:22] <imbrandon> there is tons of things
[12:22] <ajmitch> Burgundavia: you can't, you can only complain
[12:22] <Burgundavia> imbrandon: me != Mark
[12:22] <imbrandon> but just saying the whole thing is F*CKED now is not helping
[12:22] <Burgundavia> I don't have the same name recognition
[12:23] <Hobbsee> ajmitch: which they arent having either of any time soon, of course, according to the topic in -meeting
[12:23] <Burgundavia> many due to needed new CC/TB
[12:23] <Burgundavia> which I have seen no sign of
[12:24] <imbrandon> Burgundavia: i said the same reach on planet, and no you != mark but if you have valid points poeple will listen, i just dont see making it a flame war in our camp can help matters any when pubicly in the suse camp they handled the list very well IMHO
[12:24] <Burgundavia> imbrandon: I don't view this as a flame war
[12:24] <Burgundavia> and I don't think it will
[12:24] <lucas> Burgundavia: you were cited on linux.com
[12:24] <lucas> http://www.linux.com/article.pl?sid=06/11/25/028237
[12:24] <elkbuntu> brandon does have at least one valid point here.. this isnt the right place to discuss it as such
[12:25] <crimsun> admin123: what is a "processbar"?
[12:25] <Burgundavia> lucas: 2nd time. I got quoted on the binary driver thing as well
[12:25] <admin123> crimsun, I meant progress bar
[12:25] <admin123> s/bar/info/g
[12:25] <ajmitch> elkbuntu: it's good to talk about it somewhere
[12:25] <crimsun> admin123: no, it doesn't invoke a progressbar
[12:26] <Burgundavia> lucas: apparently I say quotable things
[12:26] <lucas> :-)
[12:26] <admin123> crimsun, I'm in search of a package that does, could you perhaps refer to one?
[12:26] <crimsun> admin123: your search is as good as mine.
[12:26] <Burgundavia> lucas: I also blogged with 30 minutes of Mark's email, so I had the first mover advantage
[12:27] <lucas> Burgundavia: you might get quoted on slashdot too :)
[12:27] <ajmitch> lucas: that's no great honour
[12:27] <Burgundavia> oh joy. The holy or holys
[12:28] <lucas> ajmitch: maybe, but people read it and notice it ;)
[12:28] <lucas> it's crazy to see how many people you barely know come to you and say "oh, I saw you were quoted on slashdot"
[12:30] <Burgundavia> ajmitch: you clearly don't work in sales
[12:30] <ajmitch> and I'm glad of that
[12:30] <TheMuso> Whats the traffic like on sounder?
[12:30] <Burgundavia> nothing yet. All gone to both
[12:31] <TheMuso> I mean generally
[12:31] <ajmitch> fairly quiet
[12:31] <elkbuntu> arent people still recovering from turkey day or something?
[12:32] <ajmitch> http://dir.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ubuntu.sounder <-- shiny graph of traffic
[12:32] <TheMuso> Meh. If its rather quiet, I think I can handle it. :)
[12:32] <Burgundavia> elkbuntu: wrong month for canadians
[12:34] <elkbuntu> Burgundavia, well, true
[12:34] <imbrandon> TheMuso: it goes in sputs , some days 20+ messages but overall very quiet
[12:34] <TheMuso> imbrandon: RIght.
[12:34] <ajmitch> seems to average about 10-15
[12:34] <ajmitch> per day
[12:34] <ajmitch> but I think it's probably less
[12:35] <Platyna> Huhu, what an attitude on this topic.
[12:35] <Platyna> Hello.
[12:35] <imbrandon> hello Platyna
[12:35] <crimsun> hi, please restate your question, Platyna.
[12:35] <imbrandon> attitude on the MOTU topic ?
[12:35] <Platyna> crimsun: So. We have setup Ubuntu repository but it is rather a temporary solution.
[12:36] <Platyna> So, maybe our project (a MMORPG) could be added to the official distribution.
[12:36] <Platyna> It is quite well established project.
[12:36] <Platyna> And it works!
[12:36] <imbrandon> is it under a free license ?
[12:37] <Platyna> GPL'd.
[12:37] <Platyna> Want an URL?
[12:37] <imbrandon> cool ( including all data files etc , that happens alot with games )
[12:37] <Platyna> Yes, including graphics, sound etc.
[12:37] <Platyna> http://themanaworld.org
[12:38] <crimsun> Platyna: please see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Packages/New
[12:38] <Platyna> Maybe you could package it better for Ubuntu or something. I don't know, since I am Slackware maintainer. But we have alot of Ubuntu users so I want them to feel comfty.
[12:40] <Platyna> Well, our project is not listed there.
[12:41] <crimsun> Platyna: you need to add it, then.
[12:41] <Platyna> But I just need to add a project or a package?
[12:42] <crimsun> Platyna: you need to create the source package and upload it to REVU
[12:43] <Platyna> Source package? *.tar.gz?
[12:43] <Platyna> Don't speak to me, like to Ubuntu user, please. ;)
[12:43] <Platyna> Consider me abroad stranger.
[12:44] <crimsun> Platyna: you have two options, 1) request that it be packaged by someone else, 2) package it yourself and submit it to REVU for peer review
[12:44] <imbrandon> well you need to take the person that build the deb's and have him upload the debian source package ( normaly 3 files ) to REVU
[12:44] <Platyna> Ok. I will notify other developers.
[12:45] <Platyna> And users will have it on their default repository, yes?
[12:45] <imbrandon> that is the begining to that process yes, to get it in the feisty release
[12:46] <Platyna> What does "feisty" means? I am not native English speaker.
[12:49] <imbrandon> its the name of the currect devlopment version that will be release in 07
[12:51] <Platyna> Ok.
[12:51] <Platyna> Then I will catch a person responsible and eventually come back to you. Thanks for your support.
[12:51] <Platyna> See you.
[12:52] <ajmitch> night all
[12:53] <Hobbsee> night ajmitch
[12:54] <Burgundavia> hmm, which is ajmitch, who is 8 hours behind me, going to bed before me?
[12:56] <elkbuntu> well it would be nearing 2am over there iirc
[12:57] <Burgundavia> ah, right, nz, not au
[12:58] <StevenK> Burgundavia: If you read Pratchett, this akin to calling The Librarian a monkey.
[12:58] <StevenK> this is
[12:58] <Burgundavia> only 4 hours
[12:59] <Burgundavia> StevenK: I believe the correct ape is an orangutang
[12:59] <Burgundavia> which I just horribly butchered
[12:59] <StevenK> I'm aware the Librarian is an orangutang. You don't recall what he does when someone calls him a monkey?
[01:00] <Burgundavia> indeed I Od
[01:00] <Burgundavia> do, rather
[01:00] <StevenK> Burgundavia: That is what ajmitch is going to do when he sees that you thought he was in .au
[01:01] <Hobbsee> which is also my response when i'm asked if i'm a new zealander.  grumble
[01:01] <Burgundavia> well, I do live in the US :)
[01:01] <StevenK> Hah
[01:02] <imbrandon> yea its all one big place down there right ? /me ducks
[01:02] <imbrandon> Burgundavia: i thought you were in ca ?
[01:03] <Burgundavia> I am in the US in the same way that ajmitch is in AU
[01:03] <imbrandon> ahh
[01:03] <StevenK> ... with a block of 4x2 :-P
[01:04] <imbrandon> heh
[01:04] <imbrandon> well i _DO_ live in the US ( and apparently a redneck too ) so i have an excuse :)
[01:05] <Burgundavia> no accounting for taste amongst some :)
[01:05] <imbrandon> heh
[01:05] <Hobbsee> darn those rednecks...
[01:05] <imbrandon> i just like Riddell's face when we called him an englishmen at UDS :)
[01:05] <imbrandon> that was classic
[01:05] <Hobbsee> always causing trouble
[01:05] <Hobbsee> haha - what was it?
[01:06] <imbrandon> first time i thought that soft spoken person was gonna explode and kill one of us , i cant rember whom all was standing there but it was me and jono and seele for sure
[01:07] <imbrandon> i think cjwatson was there too
[01:07] <imbrandon> iirc
[01:07] <elkbuntu> imbrandon, was this on the bus?
[01:07] <imbrandon> anyhow it was quite funny
[01:07] <imbrandon> elkbuntu: no it was while we were walking to the redneck bar
[01:08] <elkbuntu> imbrandon, i only went there once... first night
[01:08] <fabo> imbrandon: what do you think of beryl-dev package ?
[01:08] <imbrandon> infact thats who it was, me , jono, seele, cjwatson , keybuk , kwwii and riddell
[01:09] <imbrandon> fabo: i need to talk to giskard there is no orig.tar and the checksum dosent match the ones from the website ( since the .svn stuff was stripped )
[01:09] <imbrandon> but it looks like he just took the packgagin from beryl's svn ( not good )
[01:10] <Burgundavia> imbrandon: beryl shipped a tarball with .svn files in it?
[01:10] <fabo> imbrandon: i don't like beryl-dev like it is right know
[01:10] <imbrandon> Burgundavia: yes :(
[01:10] <elkbuntu> this is not surprising me
[01:11] <Burgundavia> your tax dollars^WWWshuttleworth dollars at work!
[01:11] <fabo> imbrandon: i just clean up their build-depends atm
[01:11] <Hobbsee> it just wanted people to know that it was most certainly still on crack
[01:11] <imbrandon> yea infact i mentioned it to them at UDS but they still havent fixed it
[01:11] <elkbuntu> imbrandon, have you followed up on it, or sent henchmen?
[01:11] <imbrandon> fabo: their changelog needs to be cleaned up also and copyright and a few other things
[01:12] <elkbuntu> imbrandon, it's not likely to happen unless one of the above occurs
[01:12] <fabo> imbrandon: i want beryl-dev just depends on libberylsettings-dev and not do a "meta' package
[01:12] <imbrandon> elkbuntu: hehe i'm not the one crying to get it in the repo :) they know the issues hehe
[01:12] <fabo> imbrandon: right i didn't checked copyright
[01:13] <Burgundavia> imbrandon: do you know of any window manager stress testers?
[01:13] <Burgundavia> I want to dunc-bank compiz and beryl
[01:13] <elkbuntu> imbrandon, dont be surprised when they cry lack of advice
[01:13] <imbrandon> Burgundavia: no i wish i did tbh
[01:13] <fabo> imbrandon: this afternoon i'll do a complete review of beryl ...
[01:13] <imbrandon> fabo: rockin, thanks
[01:13] <imbrandon> Burgundavia: no i would like to do the same thing
[01:13] <imbrandon> i just cant think of an objective way or program to doso
[01:14] <fabo> imbrandon: you've got some packaging on beryl ? maybe i can take a look and merge your changes too
[01:14] <Burgundavia> I will ask upstream if they have anything
[01:14] <imbrandon> fabo: no i threw mine out long ago as it was 0.1 and giskard was picking it up, so i decided to go with his and just fix whats needed
[01:15] <imbrandon> fabo: http://www.buntudot.org/people/~giskard/
[01:15] <fabo> imbrandon: ok, so bbl time to work on it ;)
[01:15] <imbrandon> ^^ thats giskard 's stuff upto now, but its far from ready for the repo
[01:15] <Burgundavia> wonder if that theme stress tester can used here?
[01:15] <imbrandon> Burgundavia: possibly, i dident know about it
[01:16] <Burgundavia> manu cornet's one for olpc
[01:16] <imbrandon> ahh
[01:19] <giskard> imbrandon, ok
[01:19] <giskard> could you merge the fix?
[01:20] <imbrandon> giskard: for ?
[01:20] <imbrandon> giskard: sure, can you put your orig.tar's up there
[01:20] <imbrandon> and i will make the changes
[01:21] <giskard> imbrandon, you can use the one shipped on  beryl-project.org
[01:21] <giskard> you have only to rename them
[01:21] <imbrandon> you dident strip those ?
[01:21] <imbrandon> ( or it wasent needed ? )
[01:21] <giskard> strip?

[02:56] <PriceChild> :D
[02:56] <PriceChild> How was work?
[02:56] <PriceChild> (I was impressed by myself... got up at 12 :D )
[02:56] <Hobbsee> tiring, my boss came in
[02:56] <Hobbsee> heh
[02:56] <PriceChild> aww :(
[02:57] <PriceChild> so you weren't in charge?
[02:57] <Hobbsee> i was
[02:57] <PriceChild> yay :)
[02:57] <Hobbsee> she was just questioning what we were doing
[02:57] <PriceChild> What did you do?
[02:57] <PriceChild> haha
[02:57] <PriceChild> what were you doing? ;)
[02:57] <Hobbsee> maybe never
[02:57] <admin123> I'm exctracting a large tarball that I put into a deb, so I want to display a progressbar. Why? So that the user will not think that the computer froze/program got stuck(not responding). I read debconf-devel but I didn't find anything usefull in there.
[02:57] <Hobbsee> getting ready to close the store, packing up, as usual.
[02:58] <PriceChild> k
[02:58] <PriceChild> I'm tired
[02:58] <PriceChild> but I got my washing started woo
[02:58] <PriceChild> bah... soemone on the forums has picked up my msn address and is asking me if i'm a woman... how old am i? etc. etc.
[02:59] <admin123> lol
[02:59] <Hobbsee> hah
[02:59] <Hobbsee> i *love* those kind of people.  they're the ones the block button was invented for
[03:00] <PriceChild> I can't block them though :)
[03:00] <admin123> so you get to push the button?
[03:00] <PriceChild> I just put them in a special gaim group....
[03:00] <Hobbsee> hah
[03:00] <Hobbsee> hte "ignore' group?
[03:00] <PriceChild> Its just called "Linux"
[03:00] <PriceChild> :P
[03:00] <PriceChild> and its at the bottom and closed
[03:01] <nolimitsoya> will the latest wine be backported to edgy?
[03:01] <nolimitsoya> the version in the repos is 0.9.22, and the latest version of winehq.com is 0.9.24
[03:01] <PriceChild> This guy doesn't even really speak english....
[03:02] <PriceChild> (not you nolimitsoya)
[03:02] <nolimitsoya> bugfixes in both updates, including memory leak fixes
[03:02] <Hobbsee> ah
[03:02] <Hobbsee> nolimitsoya: unlikely.  it never stays in date anyway
[03:02] <Hobbsee> !wine
[03:02] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[03:03] <nolimitsoya> Hobbsee, how come?
[03:03] <PriceChild> ping jenda
[03:03] <PriceChild> wine gets updated every few weeks or so
[03:03] <PriceChild> it'd be pointless
[03:04] <PriceChild> If I were you i'd just build it yourself
[03:04] <nolimitsoya> already done :)
[03:04] <nolimitsoya> someone just asked for is in #ubuntu, and i thought id take his question here
[03:06] <Hobbsee> nolimitsoya: what PriceChild said
[03:07] <gnomefreak> anyone know if pitti's debug repo is for multiverse as well?or is it just main and universe?
[03:15] <PriceChild> Hobbsee
[03:16] <Hobbsee> PriceChild
[03:17] <PriceChild> lol
[03:20] <fabo> imbrandon: uploaded

[03:28] <bhale> can a kubuntu guy advise on this
[03:28] <bhale> particuarly with the version i just uploaded
[03:30] <fabo> imbrandon, giskard i switch to b-plugins
[03:34] <gnomefreak> anyone have any ideas how to get around apt/aptitude/synaptic/adept crashing? i think its caused by a repo and getting rid of the repo doesnt work. reason i say repo is i added the repo ran apt-get update after that anything apt related that i run i get crash
[03:43] <admin123> How does one find out what debs invoke debconf-apt-progress?
[03:43] <admin123> would be nice if there was a way to find out
[03:47] <enyc> gnomefreak: I had that happening but it was a dodgy harddisk infact!
[03:58] <bluefoxicy> oh great
[03:59] <bluefoxicy> now Amaya doesn't work on edgy anymore.

[04:55] <Adri2000> err, right
[04:56] <Adri2000> but not in the channel
[05:00] <PriceChild> do a whois on him then Adri2000
[05:04] <Adri2000> PriceChild: already done, he isn't in any channel, and his ubuntu cloack is not activated, so I don't even know if it's really him :p
[05:05] <PriceChild> he he ok
[06:09] <fabo> imbrandon: b-plugins uploaded
[06:59] <joejaxx> Happy New Years! :D
[07:00] <b_lindeijer> Am I correct in asserting, that like Ubuntu, the packages in the universe repository are essentially updated only twice a year?
[07:01] <b_lindeijer> I'm wondering what the chances would be for a online game project that frequently breaks backwards compatibility, to be included. Or how much sense this'd make.
[07:01] <Adri2000> b_lindeijer: universe is frozen when a release is stable
[07:01] <Adri2000> but new packages can always be uploaded to the development version
[07:02] <Adri2000> feisty currently
[07:03] <Adri2000> b_lindeijer: you can request a package at wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Packages/Candidates, but if it's always broken, well, that's not a good idea
[07:03] <b_lindeijer> Ok. Suppose that the few months old 0.0.20 release of The Mana World would now be frozen in Edgy, this would be totally useless since you can't play it anymore.
[07:04] <b_lindeijer> So I guess we just wait until we are pretty sure it will remain playable for at least half a year, to request inclusion?
[07:05] <Adri2000> b_lindeijer: hmm yes, but releases are usually supported 18 months (more for a LTS), so it would be good if the game remains playable more than 6 months
[07:05] <b_lindeijer> Alright.
[07:06] <b_lindeijer> We'll keep hosting our own repository for now then.
[07:10] <fabo> giskard: welcome back :)
[07:10] <giskard> :)
[07:33] <admin123> :)
[07:45] <fabo> imbrandon: ping
[07:45] <fabo> have you reviewed the packages (url pasted in pv) ?
[08:01] <chantra> hi, do you guys know how to build packages for other architecture using pbuilder?
[08:01] <Laser_away> imbrandon has a little experience with that I believe
[08:01] <chantra> cheers LaserJock
[08:01] <chantra> imbrandon: ping
[09:47] <fdoving> who do I subscribe to a sync-with-debian request bugreport?
[09:48] <fdoving> subscribe/poke
[09:59] <LaserJock> fdoving: I think you might subscribe ubuntu-universe-sponsors
[10:00] <[A] ndy80> hi
[10:00] <fdoving> LaserJock: i mean a automatic sync.. not 'have someone upload a manually synced with debian' package.
[10:01] <LaserJock> well, there kind of isn't a automatic sync
[10:02] <LaserJock> a MOTU needs to approve the sync and then it goes to the ubuntu-archive team to flip the switch
[10:04] <[A] ndy80> I created an utility called SmartFan, based on fan utility by toshutils, but smarter: you can pass it a max temperature value as parameter and fan is started only when CPU reaches that temperature and stops after the CPU cools. How can I add the proposal to this list: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Packages/Candidates ?
[10:04] <[A] ndy80> could you please explain me how does it work? thanks :)
[10:10] <LaserJock> [A] ndy80: do you release it as a normal tarball?
[10:12] <admin123> [A] ndy80, you have to create a account https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UserPreferences
[10:12] <admin123> (if you wish to edit wiki pages)
[10:16] <[A] ndy80> LaserJock: yes... I've the tar.gz ready to be untarred and compiled
[10:17] <[A] ndy80> admin123: I already have an acocunt I think... Andy80it is my user :)
[10:17] <admin123> chantra_AW,  --debootstrapopts --arch --debootstrapopts $ARCH
[10:17] <admin123> [A] ndy80, then click on 'login and edit'. :)
[10:17] <[A] ndy80> admin123: once I add it to the wiki how can I be informed if the package is accepted into the universal rep?
[10:18] <LaserJock> [A] ndy80: well, you can watch REVU (revu.tauware.de)
[10:18] <admin123> Well if I remember correctly(for debian for example) that you can file a bug for pacakages that need to be added tot the repository's perhaps ubuntu has the same thing, I can't tell.
[10:20] <admin123> I think it follows debian policy guide : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Packages/Reviewing#head-8176f0034c811e5d7f154cb568a4a19b4ba021ee
[10:21] <admin123> so yeah, filing a bug would probally be sufficient
[10:22] <LaserJock> actually we don't do that normally (we should do something like that)
[10:23] <admin123> there used to be #debian-mentors
[10:23] <admin123> if it isn't moved to OFTC
[10:24] <admin123> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Packages/New [A] ndy80
[10:25] <admin123> would anyone be interested in writing documention for debconf?
[10:25] <admin123> there is a missing progressbar section
[10:28] <[A] ndy80> admin123: I added "SmartFan" on the wiki, but I think I made a mistake with the syntax of the wiki... (a missing column) could you please give it a look?
[10:37] <admin123> fixed
[10:40] <admin123> [A] ndy80, http://www.debian.org/devel/wnpp/#l1
[10:41] <LaserJock> admin123: so you are recommending [A] ndy80 request packaging in Debian
[10:41] <admin123> yes it would eventually end up in ubuntu.
[10:57] <[A] ndy80> Ok, I'll give it a lool later
[10:57] <[A] ndy80> thanks for now :)
[11:09] <joejaxx> after i use a diversion in the preinst i can use the install file to install the packages file correct?
[11:13] <LaserJock> joejaxx: I'm guessing so
[11:13] <LaserJock> I think divert just moves the existing file aside
[11:13] <joejaxx> man dpkg-divert is such a hack it is not even funny
[11:13] <joejaxx> LaserJock: ah ok
[11:13] <joejaxx> yeah
[11:14] <LaserJock> well, all of packaging is kinda a hack
[11:14] <LaserJock> :-)
[11:14] <joejaxx> ;)
[11:14] <joejaxx> haha
[11:14] <joejaxx> build-essential.hack
[11:14] <joejaxx> sudo apt-get install build-essential.hack
[11:15] <joejaxx> that whould be funny
[11:15] <joejaxx> LaserJock: when you submit a package to revu it is the source package right?
[11:15] <joejaxx> i am guessing
[11:15] <joejaxx> !revu
[11:15] <ubotu> REVU is a web-based tool to give people who have worked on Ubuntu packages a chance to "put their packages out there" for other people to look at and comment on in a structured manner. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Packages/REVU
[11:16] <joejaxx> bah what is the link lol
[11:16] <joejaxx> got it
[11:16] <joejaxx> hmm
[11:16] <joejaxx> nowhere to register
[11:17] <joejaxx> LaserJock: i whould have to submit my fluxbuntu packages to revu right?
[11:23] <LaserJock> yeah
[11:23] <LaserJock> joejaxx: have you used revu before?
[11:25] <joejaxx> no
[11:26] <LaserJock> are you a member of ubuntu-universe-contributors on LP?
[11:27] <joejaxx> LaserJock: yes
[11:32] <joejaxx> how have you all been gnomefreak Fujitsu ?
[11:33] <Fujitsu> Not too bad, joejaxx.
[11:33] <gnomefreak> joejaxx: ok here and yourself?
[11:33] <joejaxx> that is good
[11:33] <joejaxx> i am doing well
[11:33] <joejaxx> actually i have another question
[11:34] <joejaxx> does ubuntu keep all its artwork in /usr/share/ubuntu-artwork
[11:34] <gnomefreak> i think so
[11:34] <gnomefreak> /usr/share/*
[11:34] <joejaxx> ok
[11:34] <gnomefreak> i havetn looked in a while
[11:35] <joejaxx> i am trying to think about how i want to go about the fluxbuntu-artwork package
[11:35] <joejaxx> right now the wallpapers are copied to /usr/share/backgrounds
[11:36] <joejaxx> but i am wondering about the firefox homepage and login logos
[11:36] <gnomefreak> i have usr/share/backgrounds
[11:37] <gnomefreak> there a share/gdm/themes
[11:37] <joejaxx> yeah but we do not use gdm
[11:37] <joejaxx> it is wdm
[11:38] <joejaxx> wdm calls its original logo from /usr/share/pixmaps
[11:38] <gnomefreak> thats all i see other than ubuntu-artwork
[11:38] <joejaxx> oh alright
[11:57] <LaserJock> geeze, DistroWatch Weekly News comments are about as bad as the forums
[11:57] <LaserJock> joejaxx: Fluxbuntu is getting a lot of good reviews there though :-)
[11:58] <joejaxx> LaserJock: :)
[12:00] <joejaxx> To bad the Linux Distros on the PS3 weren't told about and is the cell processor the same as the powerpc.
 lol
[12:01] <joejaxx> too bad he has not looked into more
[12:01] <joejaxx> because you cannot stick a powerpc linux distro in the ps3 without modifying it
[12:02] <LaserJock> man, more derivatives
[12:02] <LaserJock> Ubuntun Multimedia Center
[12:02] <joejaxx> well that is not even a derivative lol
[12:02] <joejaxx> if you look at it
[12:02] <LaserJock> can't their site is down
[12:02] <LaserJock> too much traffix
[12:02] <LaserJock> *traffic
[12:03] <LaserJock> we'll they've been added to distrowatch, that's all anybody will care about
[12:03] <joejaxx> yeah true
[12:03] <joejaxx> right now i am converting the edgy seeds to feisty
[12:05] <joejaxx> i have to look at the feisty release cycle
[12:05] <joejaxx> and see when the first hord disc is
[12:06] <joejaxx> i will probably build a livecd for each on of those hord releases
[12:06] <joejaxx> dates*
[12:07] <LaserJock> the 30th I believe is the target date for the first 1
[12:07] <joejaxx> oh shoot
[12:07] <joejaxx> of november?
[12:07] <LaserJock> yep
[12:07] <joejaxx> lol
[12:08] <joejaxx> ok
[12:08] <joejaxx> so i have 4 days
[12:08] <joejaxx> well actually i cannot even do that
[12:08] <joejaxx> because fluxbuntu will not be in universe by then
[12:09] <joejaxx> so the deb lines whould be all wrong
[12:09] <joejaxx> when hord 2 comes out
[12:09] <joejaxx> bah


[13:20] <GEE> Morning,  Anyone know of a fix for the hanging Busybox/initramfs issue at boot that happens after doing an update with Ubuntu v.11.10??


[00:00] <DanaG> Heh, that reminds me... the bowling alley at Cal Poly is actually not flat.
[02:57] <BHSPitLappy> I'm upgrading!  :D
[03:02] <DanaG> Upgrading?  From what?  To what?
[06:36] <DanaG> Anybody still awake or around?
[06:51] <troy_s> DanaG: Go.
[06:58] <DanaG> Go?
[07:06] <troy_s> DanaG: Uh shorthand for 'Go for me'
[07:06] <troy_s> DanaG: Which was more or less an answer to your 'Anyone still awake.' question.
[08:18] <DanaG> Heh, if anybody ever says Ubuntu's orange is ugly.... show them this thing:
[08:18] <DanaG> http://www.wincustomize.com/zoom.aspx?skinid=6448&libid=1
[12:20] <savvas> kwwii: i'm having problems with the login theme on 1152x864 amd64 - the username/password is not in the center and i think it's cut, i can't see the "options" and the shutdown/restart links on the lower corner of the screen.. or are those removed?
[13:15] <kwwii> savvas: that should not happen, sounds like a bug
[13:38] <kwwii> sounds like it cannot figure out the resolution
[14:03] <savvas> hm..
[14:03] <savvas> should i file it?
[14:29] <kwwii> yes, but check to see if it is already filed as a bug


[00:44] <rlameiro> ping ScottL
[14:28] <scott-work> TheMuso: did you get an email by chance about this:  https://code.launchpad.net/~mterry/ubuntu-seeds/ubuntustudio.natty-gnome-system-tools/+merge/53420
[14:28] <scott-work> TheMuso: i would be interested in your opinion if we should accept the merge
[18:01] <macinnisrr> scott-work: did you get a chance to look over those screenshots/try out the new themes/icons? Also, what is the process now for changing the default wallpaper/theme/iconset?
[19:12] <scott-work> eh, mac left already
[19:12]  * scott-work has been in meetings most of the day
[19:29] <ailo> scott-work, Seems like macinnisrr has done some work with grub appearance as well
[19:29] <ailo> scott-work, Just looking at his launchpad page
[19:30] <ailo> Also, I was thinking, should it be announced on the mail list, about his position. And he could also announce his material so everyone can test it
[19:38] <scott-work> ailo: i agree, i had meant to do some of that during lunch but got pulled into other things :(
[19:38] <scott-work> i should have time tomorrow during lunch
[21:27] <TheMuso> scott-work: Just starting on my mail this morning, so will keep an eye out.
[21:55] <TheMuso> ScottL: Right, that merge proposal comes down to whether you guys want the new date/time indicator.
[21:56] <TheMuso> As it is, you don't ship any of the indicator infrastructure at all, except for indicator-messages, which doesn't get used anyway.
[21:57] <TheMuso> SO I think taking mterry's merge proposal is worthwhile at this point.


[18:26] <StaRetji> Howdy folks

[18:43] <StaRetji> anyone, just need tips folks. I was able to install gnash, but it works horrible. No h.264 hardware decoding


[11:16] <theunixgeek> I can't get a resolution over 800x600. How do I fix this?
[11:49] <effie_jayx> where's the wastebasket ?
[15:31] <daSKreech_> Hello
[15:34] <daSKreech_> Anyone going to UDS?
[18:12] <stgraber> ogra_cmpc, ogra__: around ?
[18:12] <ogra_cmpc> yup
[18:12] <ogra_cmpc> testing cds
[18:14] <stgraber> just wanted to know what exactly is the policy for post-beta uploads. I have a change for iTalc which will fix an icon bug in the remote exec window and a small string fix (one word).
[18:14] <stgraber> Is there some kind of problem with doc/UI freeze ? (it's a fix as currently the text is almost impossible to read due to the icon overlapping it)
[18:15] <ogra_cmpc> i doubt italc is documented anywhere yet
[18:15] <ogra_cmpc> so it should be fine, even though we might want to ping the docteam
[18:26] <highvoltage> hey ogra_cmpc
[18:27] <ogra_cmpc> highvolt1ge, hey, new zsyncable classmate images are up  :)
[18:27] <ogra_cmpc> and i've polished the pacge a bit on http://people.ubuntu.com/~ogra/classmate/images/hardy/
[18:27] <highvoltage> ogra_cmpc: great. I'll get them now, I still have the one that had the broken X installed
[18:28] <ogra_cmpc> the latest one has the new artwork :)
[18:28] <ogra_cmpc> its worth a look
[18:28] <ogra_cmpc> and language selection :)
[18:28] <ogra_cmpc> zsync should help a lot with bandwith issues
[18:29] <highvoltage> ogra_cmpc: what would I need to download? all the syncs since the .12 version?
[18:29] <highvoltage> ogra_cmpc: oh definitely, I see the zsync files are nice and small!
[18:29] <highvoltage> I could even manage that over GPRS if I /had/ to.
[18:29] <ogra_cmpc> well, it operates like rsync, it still downloads parts of the new image to merge
[18:30] <ogra_cmpc> so some MB will still go over your line
[18:31] <highvoltage> ah
[18:31] <highvoltage> do I need to download all the sync files, or just the latest one?
[18:38] <ogra_cmpc> you need an existing img file and run zsync as described on the page above
[18:39] <ogra_cmpc> (with the url to the .zsync file as argument)
[18:40] <highvoltage> d'oh! I missed the instructions above, I always scroll down to the juicy bits too quickly.
[18:42] <highvoltage> syncing to 13'th
[18:50] <ogra_cmpc> why not directly to the 18th ?
[18:56] <daSKreech_> Any one going to the Cz Rep ?
[19:01] <ogra_cmpc> daSKreech_, i will, riched as well and i think moquist
[19:02] <daSKreech_> Cool :-)
[19:02] <stgraber> I'll do but only for FOSSCamp, got exams the week after
[19:03] <stgraber> s/do//
[19:04] <daSKreech_> did anyone invite annma?
[19:05] <ogra_cmpc> daSKreech_, that would be a question for riched ...
[19:05] <daSKreech_> Who isn't here today :)
[19:05] <ogra_cmpc> yeah
[19:05] <ogra_cmpc> i dont know his list
[19:33] <highvoltage> ogra_cmpc: the first one worked... now syncing to 18
[19:33] <highvoltage> ogra_cmpc: this works very nicely :)
[19:33] <ogra_cmpc> gret
[19:34] <ogra_cmpc> i must admit i actually havent tested it yet :)
[19:34] <highvoltage> it even verifies that it got the correct image after syncing
[19:34] <ogra_cmpc> how much did it download between two images ?
[19:34] <highvoltage> let me check if it said...
[19:34] <highvoltage> it couldn't have been too much, since it only took about 15 minutes
[19:34] <ogra_cmpc> nice
[19:34] <highvoltage> and at the guest house I'm staying at we only have 384kbps dsl
[19:35] <highvoltage> and it's shared between 11 people :)
[19:35] <ogra_cmpc> phew
[19:35] <ogra_cmpc> sounds busy
[19:35] <stgraber> the good old 56kbps suddenly becomes fast :)
[19:35] <highvoltage> not sure if everyone uses it though: #################### 100.0% 37.8 kBps DONE
[19:36] <highvoltage> I got 37.8kbps average, which is close to the full 40kBps full speed
[19:36] <highvoltage> stgraber: heh
[19:36] <highvoltage> it's kind of sad, I have a 4mbps dsl line at home that's been unused for the last two months now
[19:37] <highvoltage> to the latest one seems that it will take a bit longer: ################---- 83.6% 33.1 kBps 78:43 ETA
[19:37] <ogra_cmpc> set up a server machine and ssh into it :)
[19:37] <stgraber> ogra_cmpc: oh btw, I'll soon get a decent upload too :) 25Mb/2.5Mb exactly what I need to use my remote package builder :)
[19:37] <ogra_cmpc> wow
[19:37] <highvoltage> but certainly a *massive* improvement to downloading entire images
[19:37] <ogra_cmpc> 25M is quite cool
[19:37] <highvoltage> stgraber: *drool*
[19:37] <highvoltage> stgraber: 2.5Mb up?
[19:37] <highvoltage> stgraber: that's not DSL, is it?
[19:38] <stgraber> that's cable
[19:38]  * ogra_cmpc has 2M up
[19:38] <ogra_cmpc> SDSL
[19:38] <johnny> is this channel going to ultimately redirect to #ubuntu?
[19:38] <highvoltage> oh cool. we don't even have cable here.
[19:38] <highvoltage> johnny: nope, why should it?
[19:38] <ogra_cmpc> johnny, ugh, why should we ?
[19:38] <ogra_cmpc> snap
[19:38] <highvoltage> :)
[19:38] <stgraber> johnny: nope why would you want that ?
[19:38] <stgraber> (just to add one more :))
[19:39] <johnny> just wondering, since it will be ubuntu with educational addons or whatever
[19:39] <johnny> vs edubuntu
[19:39] <highvoltage> hope we haven't scared johnny away :)
[19:39] <ogra_cmpc> edubuntu will persist as brand
[19:39] <johnny> i think the topic should point people for help in #ubuntu if they can't find it here
[19:39] <ogra_cmpc> and always be part of the edu addon
[19:40] <johnny> unless it' with the addons
[19:40] <highvoltage> johnny: yes indeed, for generic ubuntu help, #ubuntu is the right channel
[19:40] <ogra_cmpc> thats what we usually do
[19:40] <johnny> but put it in the topic
[19:40]  * ogra_cmpc perfers human interaction
[19:40] <johnny> but humans aren't always here :)
[19:40] <highvoltage> not!?
[19:40] <ogra_cmpc> thats something visitors usually grasp
[19:40] <highvoltage> hmm, we'll have to fix that.
[19:40] <ogra_cmpc> if there is nobody here
[19:41] <stgraber> ogra_cmpc: btw, are we supposed to redirect people looking for LTSP help ? (as it's now part of ubuntu alternate and not edubuntu)
[19:41] <johnny> hmm.. #ubuntu is really too big tho..
[19:41] <johnny> i hate #ubuntu personally
[19:41] <johnny> i never get help there
[19:41] <highvoltage> imho people should still be able to expect ltsp help from #edubuntu still
[19:41] <johnny> i usually have to go ask a gentoo person person
[19:41]  * stgraber too, haven't joined it for years :)
[19:41] <ogra_cmpc> the topic is full enough, and from time to time i personally like to do basic support fro actual #ubuntu questions
[19:41] <johnny> and pretend i'm using gentoo
[19:42] <highvoltage> johnny: you're quite right, #ubuntu is actually quite horrible, that is also something that needs to be fixed
[19:42]  * ogra_cmpc was resident in #ubuntu for 1.5years ... doing daily support for at least 1-2h
[19:42] <ogra_cmpc> i'm still logged in there constantly
[19:42] <ogra_cmpc> but rarely read it
[19:42] <highvoltage> ogra_cmpc: still now? wow. ogra FTW :)
[19:42] <johnny> i'm too busy doing support for my other projects to help everybody using ubuntu :)
[19:43] <ogra_cmpc> highvolt1ge, its a good indicator if freenbode is still alive :P
[19:43] <highvoltage> #ubuntu has become too noisey, I also get highlited accidentally all the time when people press hi<tab>
[19:43] <highvoltage> ogra_cmpc: heh
[19:43] <ogra_cmpc> "if all channels go quiet #ubuntu will still scroll"
[19:44] <ogra_cmpc> :)
[19:44] <johnny> i don't think i've only gotten useful help in #ubuntu once, and that was quite some time ago.. the rest of the time, nobody knows anything
[19:44] <johnny> my questions are usually too advanced for that channel i guess
[19:45] <ogra_cmpc> well currently there are 1295 ppl in there
[19:45] <ogra_cmpc> the time i was active there it were around 500
[19:49] <pygi> put a whole bunch of even most intelligent people in the room, and you'll get no answer/conclusion

[20:11] <juliux> evening
[20:11] <highvoltage> hi juliux
[20:11] <juliux> hey highvolt1ge
[20:11] <juliux> hey highvoltage
[22:00] <LaserJock> ogra_cmpc: still up?
[22:33] <LaserJock> moquist: you around?
[22:36] <Positronic> if I have a question about edubuntu on powerPCs would I go here or the PPC channel?
[22:36] <moquist> LaserJock: pongo
[22:37] <moquist> Positronic: probably PPC, but that's a guess. Depends on the question.
[22:37] <LaserJock> moquist: mvo in #ubuntu-devel wants to talk to you about moodle
[22:37] <moquist> k; thx
[22:41] <LaserJock> moquist: do an apt-cache show ucf to see what that is (I didn't know) :-)


[09:45] <Genk1> Hello folks
[09:45] <Genk1> What is the fastest archiving tool in Linux world ?
[09:46] <mybalzitch> tar?
[09:46] <Genk1> I have Gb of files that I want to backup/restore but I am hesitating to choose an algorithm
[09:46] <Genk1> mybalzitch, I will need to send files over network too
[12:57] <spinza> quick question on 14.04 do-release-upgrade gives me "No new release found"
[12:58] <spinza> and /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades has Prompt=lts
[12:58] <spinza> what am i missing?
[12:59] <binia> hmm, i had that once, forgot what i did :/
[13:00] <spinza> weird because 16.04.1 is out right
[13:00] <spinza> if i set prompt=normal I still get no release
[13:00] <spinza> when i do do-release-upgrade -c
[13:01] <binia> do-release-upgrade -c -d
[13:01] <binia> try this
[13:07] <binia> spinza, is it fresh install?
[13:08] <spinza> no an older one
[13:09] <spinza> None found doing -c -d
[13:09] <spinza> think i found the issue
[13:09] <binia> ?
[13:10] <binia> share for future references
[13:10] <binia> weirdly tho, i did upgrade from 14.04 the other week, really not long ago
[13:10] <binia> but it was proper fresh install
[13:11] <spinza> this file /etc/update-manager/meta-release has the links that seem wrong comapred to what I read online
[13:12] <spinza> http://pastebin.com/h39pjRpQ
[13:12] <binia> mhm so they look for something they shouldnt or somewhere they shouldnt
[13:13] <spinza> and those urls aren't foudn
[13:13] <binia> ah makes sense
[13:13] <binia> did you find the working ones yet and changed it
[13:13] <binia> curious will it kick off
[13:13] <binia> want me to check in my ubuntu 16.04
[13:14] <binia> would assume those will be the working ones
[13:14] <spinza> yep
[13:14] <binia> [METARELEASE]

[13:15] <spinza> this seems to be the write one

[13:15] <spinza> yep like you have it
[13:15] <binia> nice one
[13:15] <spinza> do-release is picking up 16.04.1 now
[13:15] <binia> \o/
[13:15] <binia> good job
[13:16] <spinza> thanks for being a sounding board :)
[13:16] <binia> no probs
[13:16] <binia> decided to help a lot in january so i dont have to help the rest of the year :D
[14:09] <Mis-anthrope> anyone up?
[14:12] <binia> depends on a question i guess :D
[14:13] <Mis-anthrope> I am using ubuntu 16.04 server (x86) with vbox. I have installed openbox as WM. After installing VBoxGuestAdditions, my server crashes the minute I run startx. There are a lot of crash logs and I dunno which log to look up to see what the problem actually is.. I looked up Xorg log and it only has information about starting up X and not why it crashed.. Any suggestions?
[14:15] <patdk-lap> Mis-anthrope, you probably want #ubuntu
[14:16] <Mis-anthrope> uhmm.. I am using ubuntu server
[14:16] <Mis-anthrope> anyways.. will go there.. ty :)
[14:17] <patdk-lap> but xorg isn't ubuntu-server
[14:19] <patdk-lap> if yo uwant to get really technical: Maintainer: Ubuntu X-SWAT
[14:20] <patdk-lap> and if you look under Task, ubuntu-desktop, there is no ubunt-server listed
[18:57] <MASM> wep
[21:12] <shambat> having some problems with a disk in my btrfs array (btrfs-progs v4.4 in Ubuntu 16.04). I have 4 disks in raid10, where /dev/sde is showing 100% busy and reads from it are causing 100% iowaits on the reading core. I started a scrub which is taking a long time, and my kern.log has a lot of: "blk_update_request: I/O error, dev sde, sector <number>" in it.
[21:15] <craysiii> Hey everyone, I am quite puzzled. I am trying to install ubuntu server 16.04.1 on my desktop, and later install a DE. I am trying to set up software raid with MDADM, and ive come to a point where i need to use fdisk, but when i use CTRL-ALT-F2 to access busybox shell, it says fdisk doesn't exist, nor can I install it via apt (doesn't exist either). how can i use fdisk in this situation?
[22:24] <karstensrage> for my ubuntu 16.04 to boot with my custom NSS library, i have to short circuit out for the several boot things... is this normal?

[03:10] <crazy_bus> since klatin is now getting depreacted.  Is there any other programs which have ready made latin things in them?  Besides just opening the klatin files in parley
[06:24] <sakhi> How do I enable thin client support on Edubuntu? Does the TFTP file have an impact on for the client to boot?
[07:01] <sakhi> exit
[12:37] <davmor2> Morning guys quick query I'm testing edubuntu and there seems to be no usplash from netboot mini.iso but there is from all the others available to install any ideas.  cjwaston has said that the installer is acting as normal
[12:40] <stgraber> davmor2: can you check /etc/alternatives/usplash-artwork.so ?
[12:41] <davmor2> stgraber: it's there
[12:43] <stgraber> and points to ?
[12:45] <davmor2> usr/lib/usplash/edubuntu-splash.so
[12:47] <davmor2> stgraber: ^
[12:47] <davmor2> should have a / at the beginning I missed it :)
[12:51] <davmor2> I think edubuntu's meta for netboot is crap to be honest no FF, no evolution, no pidgin, no OO.o but then other gnome stuff is in
[12:54] <stgraber> yeah, I guess the edubuntu-desktop meta is a bit broken as the focus is on the addon part
[12:57] <davmor2> stgraber: If I write a bug for this can I leave it with you?
[14:40] <davmor2> stgraber: bug 276317
[19:59] <GJ> My server is running Edubuntu 8.04 and has 3 NICs. Shouldn't the file /etc/network/interfaces have more than just the loopback interface defined?
[20:07] <nubae> GJ: absolutely
[20:44] <GJ> There is an interface file in /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/network, but it defines only the loopback interface, also. How can the server be working if the interfaces file is no good?
[20:48] <nubae> u have 3 network cards on your thin client?
[20:50] <Lns> GJ: the file you referenced is in the client chroot, not the server. look in /etc/network/interfaces.
[20:52] <GJ> The 3 NICs are in the server not on clients. eth0 goes to the thin clients, eth1 goes to the Internet, and eth2 goes to some Windows laptops.
[20:53] <GJ> I had referenced the one in /etc/network earlier. Neither one defines anything other than loopback.
[21:32] <Lns> GJ: you might have them defined in network-manager, not sure if that has a different facility - i think network-manager should honor /etc/network/interfaces though
[21:33] <GJ> Where do I find "network-manager"?
[21:38] <GJ> Would that be the System - Administration - Network menu choice?
[21:38] <nubae> yeah
[21:40] <GJ> So what file does this network manager use to store configuration info?
[22:37] <GJ> I changed IP address of my LTSP server. According to Edubuntu Handbook, I am supposed to update SSL certificates.
[22:38] <GJ> I updated the dhcpd.conf and then ran sudo ltsp-update-sshkeys per Handbook.
[22:39] <GJ> The thin client boots up OK, but when I try to login I get: This workstation isn't authorized to connect to server.
[22:39] <GJ> What else do I have to do besides update SSL certificates to allow login from thin clients?
[22:45] <GJ> Never mind. I just spotted some message traffic that says I have to sudo ltsp-update-image. Wonder why the Handbook doesn't mention that.


[02:27] <bigjools> jtv2: I fixed the trusty run environment
[02:27] <bigjools> I'm going to switch the lander to trusty soon
[02:27] <jtv2> Great!
[02:27] <jtv> I've been holding back my other machine for this, so that's the green light for that upgrade.
[04:46] <bradm> bigjools: is there an easy way to use MaaS to boot a rescue image?
[05:00] <jtv> bradm: not that I know... it's an interesting thought  though.
[05:03] <bigjools> bradm: I would just replace the kernel/initrd with your custom ones
[05:06] <bradm> the issue is that I'm trying to rebuild the arrays on the proliants, it'd be awesome to have a way to handle that in MaaS
[05:06] <bradm> HP Proliant iLOs aren't great with rebuilding arrays, particularly over ssh
[05:11] <lifeless> iLO ssh specifically I presume? openssh to an OS would be fine, right ?
[05:12] <bradm> yeah, iLO ssh specifically, getting into the array config is the issue, openssh to an OS would be fine
[05:13] <bradm> so I could run hpacucli or similar
[06:29] <bigjools> jtv:
[06:29] <bigjools> -        content = render_dns_template(template_path, kwargs, context)
[06:29] <bigjools> +        content = render_dns_template(self.template_file_name, kwargs, context)
[06:29] <bigjools> what;s going on here?
[06:30] <bigjools> you cover note says "template_path disappear, because render_dns_template already knows how to compute this path" but you replaced path with file name
[06:32] <bigjools> gah ok the diff was obfuscating things, never mind
[11:52] <rvba> gmb: time for a tiny review? https://code.launchpad.net/~rvb/maas-test/ssh-with-sudo/+merge/202643
[11:53] <gmb> rvba: Sure
[11:53] <rvba> Thanks.
[11:53] <gmb> r=me
[11:57] <bigjools> the lander is up again
[11:57]  * bigjools sleeps
[16:22] <tomixxx> hi, jtv or matsubara online?
[16:48] <tomixxx> i search the file in which i can set the url of the maas-server
[16:48] <tomixxx> has someone an idea? i had already open this file but i cant find it right now
[17:35] <rvba> allenap: can you tell roaksoax why we have two manpage for maas-cli? (docs/maascli.rst, docs/man/maas-cli.8.rst)… they seem related but I failed to recall how.
[17:36] <allenap> rvba: otp, but I’ll check when I’m done.
[17:37] <rvba> Thanks.
[18:13] <allenap> roaksoax: It looks like the man page for maas-cli was copied from the doc, presumably because we wanted slightly different content between its web presentation and man page. However, they’re out of sync in a few places so it would be better to ditch one I guess, and my vote would be to ditch docs/maascli.rst in favour of the man page.
[18:14] <allenap> docs/maascli.rst does include some images, which the man page cannot.
[18:14] <allenap> Well, it /can/; we ought to see if they affect man page rendering.
[18:15] <allenap> Anyway, I have to go.
[18:39] <roaksoax> allenap: cool
[20:32] <Ming> is "Allocated to root" is the final state for bootstrap maas?
