| [04:02] <kostmo> yesterday it was suggested that i use debootstrap to test my 'pyrocket' application for intrepid -- could I use pbuilder to the same effect? | |
| [04:03] <persia> kostmo: I believe the command is pbuilder --login or similar. | |
| [04:04] <kostmo> I also noticed that intrepid is in alpha1 and there's no gui/livecd available, which precludes actual runtime testing it seems | |
| [04:06] <kostmo> although I wouldn't expect much to change about a pygtk gui from Hardy to Intrepid | |
| [04:07] <persia> kostmo: You can always run from a netinstall or similar. Anyway, images are available from cdimages.ubuntu.com | |
| [04:07] <kostmo> yeah, I saw the server cd and the alternate cd | |
| [04:08] <kostmo> the server cd says explicitly that no window manager is included | |
| [04:08] <kostmo> i don't know about the alternate cd, but it doesn't say that it *does* include the window manager | |
| [04:09] <persia> kostmo: That is the reason behind the inclusion of package management tools with network access. | |
| [04:10] <kostmo> i c | |
| [04:10] <kostmo> alpha distro testing is new territory for me | |
| [04:11] <persia> kostmo: You might ask for testing advice and pointers to test cases in #ubuntu-testing | |
| [04:12] <kostmo> ok, thanks | |
| [04:43] <Hobbsee> RAOF: it's amazing how much better gnome-do works if you enable the plugins | |
| [04:43] <RAOF> Indeed it does. | |
| [04:44] <RAOF> Are you using 0.5 (time to poke #debian-mono about that again, methinks)? | |
| [05:20] <ScottK> kostmo: The alternate CD has a gui, but no live CD. It uses the traditional Debian Installer. | |
| [05:21] <kostmo> i'll have to try that out | |
| [05:23] <kostmo> This doesn't seem right -- I changed the distro name to 'intrepid' for uploading to my PPA, but it complains that it was already accepted to "hardy" and that I should try another distribution | |
| [05:24] <kostmo> here is the email message: http://paste.ubuntu.com/23868/ | |
| [05:24] <sommer> ScottK: php5-clamavlib for hardy uploaded to the clamav ppa and tested... worked fine | |
| [05:25] <ScottK> sommer: Great. I'm about to head to bed. I'll try and look at it for upload to the archive tomorrow. | |
| [05:25] <ScottK> sommer: I'd also like to help you get it NMU'ed in Debian. | |
| [05:25] <sommer> ScottK: me too, just wanted to fyi ya | |
| [05:25] <sommer> ScottK: sounds good to me :) | |
| [05:26] <sommer> I'll work up a debian package tomorrow evening | |
| [05:26] <ScottK> Thanks. | |
| [05:27] <wgrant> kostmo: It says you should change the version, not try another distribution. | |
| [05:28] <kostmo> i'm confused by the message "you cannot upload the same version within the same distribution" | |
| [05:28] <kostmo> it seems to imply that you can change the distribution to make it work | |
| [05:30] <persia> Well, you can. If you were to e.g. upload to kostmo's special linux, it would work. You just can't use that version in kostmo's PPA distribution, regardless of the release series. | |
| [05:30] <wgrant> kostmo: Unless you want to upload to a non-Ubuntu distribution... | |
| [05:32] <kostmo> i need to get some terminology straight -- can "hardy", "intrepid", etc. be called "distributions"? the pastebin message has a line saying "Distribution: intrepid", but is that a misnomer? | |
| [05:32] <persia> Somewhat. It's a release series. | |
| [05:33] <wgrant> Ubuntu is a distribution. Intrepid is a distribution series. dpkg hasn't caught up | |
| [05:34] <kostmo> so does "series" in "release/distribution series" refer to the sequence of alphas/release candidates for e.g. intrepid? | |
| [05:34] <wgrant> More 8.04, 8.04.1, 8.04.2, I guess. | |
| [05:34] <persia> No. It's Warty, Hoary, Breezy, Dapper, Edgy, Feisty, Gutsy, Hardy, Intrepid, ... | |
| [05:35] <wgrant> persia: Each of those is a separate series. | |
| [05:35] <persia> wgrant: Ah. My misunderstanding then. | |
| [05:35] * persia thinks the nomenclature is a little confusing | |
| [05:35] <wgrant> It makes more sense for projects. | |
| [05:35] <kostmo> i'll second that | |
| [05:35] <bliZZardz> persia, wgrant : what is the discussion about? | |
| [05:36] <wgrant> They used to be DistroReleases, but they were renamed to DistroSeries to be more in line with the project naming scheme. | |
| [05:39] <kostmo> so referring back to my pastebin, the text "you cannot upload the same version within the same distribution" would probably make more sense if down below it used the term "Distribution Series" instead of simply "Distribution" | |
| [05:39] <wgrant> It would. | |
| [05:40] <wgrant> But we won't modify the definitions of such fields in dpkg control files. | |
| [05:40] <persia> kostmo: Except that's just pulling from the .changes file. I think it'd make more sense to call that "target", as there is no reason one can't copy it afterwards (e.g. foo-proposed -> foo-updates) | |
| [05:48] <kostmo> i was trying to upload to my PPA before uploading to REVU to catch any packaging errors -- but the PPA is picky about the versions being duplicated -- is REVU not picky? | |
| [05:49] <wgrant> REVU is not picky. | |
| [05:49] <wgrant> But PPA is, rightly. | |
| [05:50] <kostmo> also, i have not received any automated e-mails from REVU after uploading -- is that supposed to happen? | |
| [05:51] <ScottK> It is supposed to happen that you do not get mail. | |
| [05:52] <kostmo> ok | |

| [08:00] <nxvl> mm | |
| [08:00] <nxvl> i' curious on how upstream release the package | |
| [08:01] <nxvl> the tarball i COMPLETELY different from what it's on the hg repo | |
| [08:08] <siretart> encourage upstream to place the script that converts an hg revision to a tarball in the branch | |
| [08:09] <nxvl> i think | |
| [08:09] <nxvl> build the source | |
| [08:09] <nxvl> and package ir before cleaning | |
| [08:20] <nxvl> siretart: i have just send an email to upstream with a list of bugs | |
| [08:20] <nxvl> i hope they solve them | |
| [08:23] <nxvl> also i wan't noticing it, but it ships with the .spec | |
| [08:23] <nxvl> wasn't | |

| [13:38] <siretart> revu.ubuntuwire.com is an alias for spooky.ubuntuwire.com. | |

| [13:39] <persia> Hobbsee: Could you just adjust to point at ubuntuwire? That got updated, and likely would again for another change. | |
| [13:40] <ScottK> Hobbsee: I think we are marking on the same dput bug at the same time. | |
| [13:41] <ScottK> Hobbsee: Both revu.ubuntuwire.de and revu.tauware.de point to the sam IP. | |
| [13:41] <persia> If they are both updated, why the bug? | |
| [13:41] <ScottK> So unless siretart drops the a record for revu.tauware.de, there is no problem. | |
| [13:42] <persia> Is this just the user being confused by reading the text of the config file? | |
| [13:42] <ScottK> For Intrepid, it makes sense to update to the preferred URL, but in no sense should this be an SRU candidate. | |
| [13:45] <ScottK> Hobbsee: I marked myself assigned on the bug before I noticed you were working on it. If you'd rather, I'll stop. | |
| [13:46] <siretart> please use the ubuntuwire.com url. the tauware.de is my private, personal domain which I used because I was able to and I didn't want to nag canonical for setting up dns. then, years later, ubuntuwire came up so I moved the service name there | |

| [14:48] <sistpoty|work> heh | |
| [14:49] * sistpoty|work is probably only that fast, because .informatik.uni-erlangen.de is in the search of dns :) | |
| [14:51] <siretart> sistpoty|work: it exands a parameterized macro (variable). There is a multiline macro a few lines above | |

| [16:02] <huats> I have a question | |
| [16:02] <huats> I am using dput to maintain some package locally that I need as dependencies | |
| [16:02] <huats> but it seems to fail with virtual packages | |
| [16:02] <huats> does it sounds wierd to someone ? | |
| [16:02] <huats> anybody has an idea ? | |
| [16:04] * RainCT doesn't even know what you mean with "using dput to maintain some packages locally" :P | |
| [16:08] <huats> RainCT: sorry I was not really clear | |
| [16:09] <huats> RainCT: I have a local repo so that I can build package without waiting for the dependencys (that I have build) to be included in the distro | |
| [16:09] <huats> that is my usage of dput "locally" | |
| [16:09] <huats> :) | |
| [16:11] <wgrant> huats: How are you using it? dput just puts packages somewhere - it doesn't do any repository management. | |
| [16:12] <huats> wgrant: i use also mini-dinstall to do that | |
| [16:13] <huats> wgrant: but this time, since it is a virtual package, dput only creates the .changes on the source package.... but nothing related to the binary one... | |
| [16:13] <huats> so I cannot put them in my local repo | |
| [16:13] <huats> I am surely missing something... | |
| [16:19] <ScottK> huats: You can dput the binary and source upload by dput'ing the .changes you get from the build. | |
| [16:19] <huats> ScottK: hey | |
| [16:20] <huats> ScottK: when I dput the .changes they are only for the source package | |
| [16:20] <huats> not one of the binary that will be created... | |
| [16:20] <ScottK> source.changes yes. | |
| [16:21] <ScottK> After you build your binary you should have a arch.changes (e.g. i386.changes) | |
| [16:21] <ScottK> Dput that one. | |
| [16:21] <ScottK> That will upload the binary .deb too. | |

| [16:26] <huats> ScottK: or, I am more dummy than I think and I have not updated my pbuilder env after I used dput | |

| [16:27] <ScottK> No problem. | |
| [16:57] <Jazzva> I'm trying to do azureus merge. It depends on libswt-gtk-3.3-java, but the highest ubuntu has is libswt3.2-gtk-java. The current one in debian unstable is libswt-gtk-3.4-java. Does anyone know if sync is planned for that package? | |
| [16:58] <Jazzva> It fails to build, because of deprecated API. I suppose that's related to the older libswt in ubuntu. | |
| [17:04] <geser> Jazzva: have you tried to take the libswt package from debian (and rebuild it for intrepid) and check if azureus would build with it? | |

| [17:23] <bluefoxicy> http://img389.imageshack.us/img389/7561/screenshotum0.png | |
| [17:24] <bluefoxicy> this is what happens in a totally new user, I just upgraded to Hardy. reinstalled sound-juicer and created a blank user, the same thing happened. | |
| [17:24] <siretart> james_w: the rootdelay loop in initramfs-tools waits for the root filesystem. we need to wait here for the device holding the crypted filesystem | |
| [17:25] <siretart> james_w: Ideally the cryptdisks hook would be able to use the look mechanism from initramfs-tools, however it is not generic. If we could make it callable, that would be ideal and avoid this code duplications | |
| [17:27] <james_w> siretart: would you mind justifying it on the bug report? You understand it better, so you'll do a better job of explaining it than me. | |
| [17:27] <bluefoxicy> does the install CD put some files on the system that aren't tracked by the package manager, specifically in relation to sound-juicer? | |
| [17:27] <siretart> james_w: yes, I'll take over that. thanks for forwarding it to debian! | |
| [17:28] <bluefoxicy> i.e. something I can't get by reinstalling a package | |
| [17:28] <james_w> siretart: thanks! | |
| [17:28] <james_w> siretart: also, you may want to look at debian bug 488128. | |
| [17:29] * siretart calls it a day. see you tomorrow! | |
| [17:29] * sistpoty|work heads home... cya | |
| [17:29] <james_w> bye siretart | |
| [17:30] <siretart> james_w: I'm noting that one as well. it is on my list for tomorrow | |
| [17:30] <siretart> cya | |
| [17:31] <raphink> hi siretart :) | |
| [17:33] * bluefoxicy reinstalls his OS to fix a single package | |
| [17:39] <Laney> Should I carry on with merges now that we're in DIF or is it now on an "only if it's specifically worthwhile" basis? | |
| [17:40] <james_w> Laney: merging bug fixes is a good idea, new upstreams are probably good as they generally fix bugs. | |
| [17:40] <james_w> merging for something like "Update standards version" is not worth the time. | |
| [17:41] <Laney> Yeah. I had been doing them on a "because they're there" basis before. | |
| [17:41] <Laney> I shall try to cherrypick the most useful ones | |
| [17:41] <james_w> looking at something like the RC bugs list, or the FTBFS list could be a good way to find those. | |

| [20:38] <SolarWar> i have a question on packaging, is this the right channel? | |
| [20:38] <tacone> yes it is | |
| [20:41] <SolarWar> okay I have the following errors: http://rafb.net/p/Qv9vyg55.html | |
| [20:41] <SolarWar> i'm not sure where to start looking | |
| [20:41] <geser> what gives "file qlix_0.2.1.orig.tar.gz"? | |
| [20:42] <SolarWar> i'm not sure, i'm just running debuild | |
| [20:42] <SolarWar> it then proceeds to compile the whole application- and once its done, i get those errors | |
| [20:43] <tacone> SolarWar: you can open another terminal to try that command :-) | |
| [20:43] <SolarWar> i messed up the paste, one sec | |
| [20:44] <SolarWar> i did try tar -xkf on the original tar file and it works :-/ | |
| [20:44] <SolarWar> http://rafb.net/p/AHokJl89.html | |
| [20:44] <SolarWar> there :) | |
| [20:45] <k0p> hi all. | |
| [20:45] <SolarWar> helloo | |
| [20:46] <k0p> SolarWar, is it trying extract with xkf? | |
| [20:47] <SolarWar> i think so k0p | |
| [20:48] <SolarWar> theres nothing in my rules that say that it should do that | |
| [20:48] <SolarWar> so i'm assuming that this is something that debuild does on its own accord (?) | |
| [20:49] <k0p> well at the top we have tproblems in rules | |
| [20:49] <k0p> I don't understand so much that. I can't help you. sorry | |
| [20:49] <k0p> i'm a beginer in packing. | |
| [20:50] <k0p> but looks like trying unzip wrong file | |
| [20:55] <SolarWar> k0p, thanks for taking a shot, i think i figured it out: my maintainer field in the control file should be motu@ubuntu.org | |
| [20:55] <k0p> really? | |
| [20:55] <k0p> give me a secound | |
| [20:55] <SolarWar> or ubuntu-motu@lists.ubuntu.com | |
| [20:56] <k0p> hmm | |
| [20:56] <k0p> in control? | |
| [20:56] <k0p> I think the field in maitaier is something like: | |
| [20:56] <k0p> Maintainer: Full Name <email> | |
| [20:56] <k0p> but I don't have totally sure about that. | |
| [20:57] <k0p> I have it in my package. But I don't have comments yet in revu | |
| [20:59] <SolarWar> hrm | |
| [21:04] * ScottK hands out https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebianMaintainerField to SolarWar and k0p. | |
| [21:06] <SolarWar> cool | |
| [21:06] <k0p> ScottK, yeah you're right. :) | |
| [21:06] <k0p> I don't know about that. | |
| [21:06] <k0p> thanks. | |
| [21:06] <SolarWar> now i have this problem: http://rafb.net/p/Fx0sdU18.html | |
| [21:07] <SolarWar> i'm not sure what hte double colon syntax is | |
| [21:07] <SolarWar> the guide doesn't have any examples of install:: | |
| [21:10] <k0p> SolarWar, may be you put on label install something like: build | |
| [21:10] <k0p> and others labels that u need | |
| [21:10] <k0p> rules is semilar like a Makefile IMHO. | |
| [21:11] <k0p> btw what's differences between dpkg-buildpackage and debuild? | |
| [21:12] <azeem> debuild is a wrapper around dpkg-buildpackage which might or might not run other things before/after as well, AFAIK | |
| [21:12] <k0p> hmm right :) | |
| [21:12] <k0p> like lintian ? | |
| [21:13] <azeem> e.g. | |
| [21:14] <k0p> hmm fine. | |
| [21:35] <ScottK> debsign too. | |
| [21:39] <mercutio22> Hello | |
| [21:39] <mercutio22> I have a broken package I can't remove. Its on universe of multiverse.. not sure | |
| [21:40] <mercutio22> it is called g15daemon | |
| [21:40] <mercutio22> can someone help me remove it? | |
| [21:41] <ScottK> mercutio22: You should ask in #ubuntu. | |
| [21:42] <mercutio22> they told me to try over here though | |
| [21:42] <mercutio22> The usual methods won't do I was told | |
| [21:44] <mercutio22> it is related to this bug | |
| [21:44] <mercutio22> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/g15daemon/+bug/173675 | |
| [21:44] <ubott2> Launchpad bug 173675 in g15daemon "package g15daemon 1.9.0-wip.20070910-5 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1" [Undecided,New] | |
| [21:47] <SolarWar> what does this mean: dpkg-genchanges: failure: cannot read files list file: No such file or directory | |
| [21:49] <warp10> porthose: are you there? | |
| [21:56] <james_w> SolarWar: are you building an "Arch: all" package, or an "Arch: any" package? | |
| [21:57] <SolarWar> james_w, I'm using arch: any | |
| [21:58] <james_w> SolarWar: then check that you have commands under "binary-arch" and not "binary-indep" in debian/rules. | |
| [21:59] <SolarWar> oh i see | |
| [21:59] <SolarWar> thanks | |
| [22:01] <ScottK> mercutio22: If I help you get it uninstalled, will you document how to do it in the bug for others? | |
| [22:03] <mercutio22> ScottK: I got the g15daemon going but I am still getting a broken package error from synaptic. Yes I would. | |
| [22:04] <mercutio22> ScottK: I compiled the latest version | |
| [22:04] <ScottK> A | |
| [22:04] <ScottK> Ah. | |
| [22:04] <ScottK> Open a console shell. | |
| [22:05] <mercutio22> ScottK: done | |
| [22:05] <ScottK> cd /etc/init.d | |
| [22:05] <mercutio22> ok | |
| [22:05] <ScottK> ls | |
| [22:05] <ScottK> Is there a file named g15daemon? | |
| [22:05] <mercutio22> Yes | |
| [22:06] <ScottK> sudo vim g15daemon | |
| [22:06] <ScottK> Or actually | |
| [22:07] <ScottK> sudo edit g15daemon | |
| [22:07] <ScottK> That'll bring up Nano which is more obvious to use than vim. | |
| [22:07] <sebner> huhu ScottK | |
| [22:07] <sebner> ^^ | |
| [22:07] <RainCT> or sudo gedit :) | |
| [22:08] <mercutio22> ScottK: ok I used gedit because edit didn't work | |
| [22:08] <ScottK> OK. | |
| [22:08] <mercutio22> go ahead | |
| [22:08] <ScottK> sudo nano g15daemon is another option. | |
| [22:08] <sebner> RainCT: gksu :P | |
| [22:08] <mercutio22> right, thanks | |
| [22:09] <ScottK> mercutio22: I'm guessing the first line of the file is something like #~ /bin/sh. Is that right? | |
| [22:09] <mercutio22> ScottK: yes: #! /bin/sh | |
| [22:09] <RainCT> sebner: like this? gksu /etc/init.d/sebner stop *g* | |
| [22:10] <ScottK> mercutio22: Right after that add a line that says "exit 0" (without the quotes) - Note that if you've got a fixed version you can skip this step because all we are doing is making it guaranteed the init script doesn't fail. | |
| [22:10] <geser> RainCT: did it work? :) | |
| [22:10] <ScottK> mercutio22: Then save and exit. | |
| [22:10] <ScottK> In your case you've nothing actually to save. | |
| [22:10] <mercutio22> ok | |
| [22:11] <mercutio22> done | |
| [22:11] <sebner> RainCT: gksu gedit xD | |
| [22:11] <ScottK> Then you should be able to do sudo apt-get upgrade and the package should configure. | |
| [22:11] <RainCT> geser: uhm.. let's wait for the "no reply to ping" message :) | |
| [22:11] <RainCT> geser: seems like it failed.. | |
| [22:11] <geser> RainCT: open a bug, severity critical | |
| [22:11] <ScottK> mercutio22: Getting the package to finish it's configure step is the key to getting rid of the error. | |
| [22:11] <sebner> geser: bah. just wait when I'll flood u-u-s queue :P | |
| [22:12] <mercutio22> ScottK: sweet. Seems to have done the trick | |
| [22:12] <RainCT> geser: I'm on the way. Rationale: "MOTUs have rights. We want holidays!" :P :P | |
| [22:13] <mercutio22> hang on there.. I will test if synaptic is still giving me the error msg | |
| [22:14] <ScottK> mercutio22: The next step then (if you don't have the working one) is to sudo apt-get remove the package. | |
| [22:14] <mercutio22> ScottK: I think I do have the working one | |
| [22:14] <mercutio22> I mean... my LCD is showing a clock | |
| [22:14] <ScottK> That was for the instructions you put in the bug. | |
| [22:16] <mercutio22> Ok thanks. I will write what you instructed me to do on the bug page | |
| [22:17] <ScottK> Great. | |
| [22:17] <ScottK> At least people will be able to know how to get it off their systems then. | |
| [22:19] <mercutio22> yeah. That was great help. Thanks | |

| [23:01] <RAOF> SolarWar: Any number of reasons: you didn't call the install target of the build system, you called the install target of the build system with the wrong target directory, you're making a multi-binary package and haven't added the binary to any dh_install rules, ... | |

| [23:26] <dushara> n00b here. | |
| [23:26] <RainCT> hi dushara | |
| [23:27] <dushara> I've been asked to be the sinhala maintainer for ubuntu | |
| [23:28] <dushara> http://sinhala.sourceforge.net/ | |
| [23:29] <mouz> apachelogger: can I still do RainCT's thing plus two of yours or are you busy doing those already? | |
| [23:30] <apachelogger> mouz: no, go ahead | |
| [23:30] <mouz> k | |
| [23:30] <dushara> Some of the packages have been added to debian repos. | |
| [23:32] <RainCT> dushara: yes..? | |
| [23:33] <dushara> Is this right place to get advice? | |
| === Zic_ is now known as Zic | |
| [23:33] <RainCT> dushara: sure, just ask | |
| [23:34] <RainCT> :) | |
| [23:34] <dushara> There are few packages like SCIM keyboard engines, and a font. How exactly should I go about getting them into Ubuntu repos? | |
| [23:35] <wgrant> In general they should be here already, if they have been in Debian for more than a week. | |
| [23:35] <wgrant> We stopped automatically importing packages a week ago. | |
| [23:35] <dushara> It may be about that. Who maintains them? | |
| [23:35] <wgrant> Nobody in particular. | |
| [23:36] <wgrant> We have group maintenance here. | |
| [23:36] <wgrant> !motu | |
| [23:36] <ubott2> motu is short for Masters of the Universe. The brave souls who maintain the packages in the Universe section of Ubuntu. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU | |
| [23:37] <dushara> :-) So does Ubuntu automatically sync the the debian repos? | |
| [23:38] <wgrant> That's where we get the enormous majority of our packages. | |
| [23:38] <geser> yes, till last week, now only on request | |
| [23:39] <Nafallo> only source | |
| [23:39] <dushara> How do I find out if the pkgs are in Ubuntu? | |

| [23:40] <Nafallo> wgrant: 404 | |
| [23:40] <wgrant> Nafallo: Surprising. | |
| [23:40] <Nafallo> :-) | |
| [23:40] <wgrant> Nafallo: See, LP is borked. Fix it! | |
| [23:40] <Nafallo> wgrant: not my job :-) | |
| [23:41] <wgrant> Close enough. | |
| [23:41] <Nafallo> wgrant: but those racks have lot less cables now ;-) | |
| [23:42] <wgrant> Nafallo: Always good. | |
| [23:42] <Nafallo> :-) | |
| [23:42] * wgrant has nightmares of small racks with 10m CAT6 cables. | |
| [23:42] <Nafallo> 10m :-O | |
| [23:42] <dushara> thanks for all the help :-) | |
| [23:43] <wgrant> Apparently the previous tech didn't have any appropriate patch cables. So we had that horror. | |
| [23:43] <Nafallo> buy him a crimper? :-) | |
| [23:43] <ajmitch> wgrant: pics or it didn't happen... :) | |
| [23:44] <wgrant> ajmitch: I think we might have pics somewhere, but we cleaned it up in '05. | |
| [23:44] * ajmitch imagines it was a small nightmare of trying to track down where anything went | |
| [23:44] <wgrant> It was horrible. | |
| [23:44] <wgrant> (~150 PP points as well) | |
| [23:44] <ajmitch> that's a lot of cable | |
| [23:44] <wgrant> It is. | |
| [23:44] <wgrant> No colourcoding either. | |
| [23:44] <wgrant> But it's all neat and coloured now. | |
| [23:45] * ajmitch tries to imagine fitting over 1km of cabling into a small room | |
| [23:54] <mouz> apachelogger, RainCT: thanks for your comments. New touchfreeze upload is in revu. | |
