[00:31] <CIA-33> debian-installer: cjwatson * r1134 ubuntu/ (build/config/armel/dove.cfg debian/changelog): Marvell Dove kernel udebs are called *-dove-di, not *-mvl-dove-di.
[00:31] <cjwatson> NCommander: I'm not entirely convinced by your test build :-) Could you try again with r1134? I'd prefer that to be tested before upload
[00:39] <NCommander> cjwatson, which branch do you want me to pull from?
[00:39] <NCommander> cjwatson, (and has publisher been fixed or do i still need to add universe :-))
[00:39] <cjwatson> lp:~ubuntu-core-dev/debian-installer/ubuntu
[00:39] <cjwatson> publisher's fixed
[00:40] * cjwatson -> bed
[00:40] <NCommander> cjwatson, night
[03:07] <CIA-33> ubiquity: shtylman * r3397 trunk/ (debian/changelog gui/qt/app.ui ubiquity/frontend/kde_ui.py): Added support for encrypted home/swap login in kde installer
[08:38] <evand> kirkland: the updated versions of ubiquity and user-setup didn't make it onto today's CD build because the livefs failed to build due to what looks like a broken readline-common package.
[08:42] <NCommander> cjwatson, *belated*, so imx51 target failed to build with latest kernel mainline :-/
[08:43] <StevenK> evand: Yup, readline-common wants a version of dpkg that doesn't exist. Or install-info, which I don't think exists either
[08:43] <evand> indeed
[08:43] <StevenK> Bad doko
[08:43] <evand> haha
[08:48] <StevenK> Hmm. install-info does exist
[08:53] <evand> weird
[08:54] * StevenK fiddles with livecd-rootfs
[09:04] <cjwatson> StevenK: http://wiki.debian.org/Transitions/DpkgToGnuInstallInfo may be relevant
[09:04] <cjwatson> for background if nothing else
[09:09] <CIA-33> debian-installer: cjwatson * r1135 ubuntu/ (10 files in 3 dirs): Move to 2.6.31-7 kernels.
[09:10] <StevenK> cjwatson: I'm not certain why apt isn't just pulling in install-info directly and just dealing then
[09:10] <cjwatson> dunno
[09:11] <CIA-33> debian-installer: cjwatson * r1136 ubuntu/debian/changelog: releasing version 20081029ubuntu53
[10:30] <CIA-33> ubiquity: cjwatson * r3398 ubiquity/ (74 files in 2 dirs): Update desktop file translations from Launchpad.
[10:36] <CIA-33> cdrom-detect: cjwatson * r447 ubuntu/debian/ (changelog po/ast.po po/kk.po): Update translations from Launchpad.
[10:46] <CIA-33> console-setup: cjwatson * r109 ubuntu/debian/ (changelog po/be.po po/eu.po po/nl.po po/pt_BR.po po/vi.po): Update translations from Launchpad.
[10:47] <kirkland> evand: :-/ bummer
[12:20] <CIA-33> partman-auto: cjwatson * r299 ubuntu/debian/ (changelog po/ast.po po/be.po po/kk.po po/sl.po): Update translations from Launchpad.
[12:21] <CIA-33> partman-auto-lvm: cjwatson * r225 ubuntu/debian/ (12 files in 2 dirs): Update translations from Launchpad.
[12:24] <CIA-33> partman-base: cjwatson * r166 ubuntu/debian/ (22 files in 2 dirs): Update translations from Launchpad.
[12:26] <shtylman> evand: how do I go about getting a new package (say ubiquity-slideshow-kde) in the system?
[12:26] <CIA-33> partman-crypto: cjwatson * r687 ubuntu/debian/ (65 files in 2 dirs): Update translations from Launchpad.
[12:29] <CIA-33> partman-target: cjwatson * r772 ubuntu/debian/ (12 files in 2 dirs): Update translations from Launchpad.
[12:32] <evand> shtylman: roughly, it first needs to be uploaded to universe and NEW'ed by an archive admin. Once it's in universe, a main inclusion request needs to be filled out, and approved by an archive admin. From there it needs to be added to the live seed, and an archive admin needs to add it to the overrides.
[12:33] <CIA-33> pkgsel: cjwatson * r148 ubuntu/debian/ (12 files in 2 dirs): Update translations from Launchpad.
[12:33] <shtylman> evand: k...so once I make a package...how do I get it in universe? do I just tell someone from MOTU the lp branch?
[12:34] <evand> shtylman: you'll need a sponsor. It can be anyone in motu or core-dev. I'd be happy to upload it on your behalf.
[12:35] <evand> shtylman: make sure you have the copyright information sorted and the packing in good shape
[12:35] <evand> ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu should be a good guide for that
[12:36] <shtylman> evand: right :) .. k I will aim to have the package ready by tomorrow (will deff use slideshow-ubuntu as a starting point) and then I will shoot you an email with where it... since feature freeze is right around the corner :)
[12:36] <evand> great, thanks
[12:36] <cjwatson> http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SponsorshipProcess
[12:37] <evand> ah, good call
[12:37] <shtylman> noted
[12:37] <evand> shtylman: the quicker the better, there's a long turn around time on this as it blocks on the archive admin team at several points
[12:38] <shtylman> evand: gotcha. K when I get home from work today I will put the package together and get the process started
[12:38] <evand> shtylman: thanks!
[13:03] <CIA-33> user-setup: cjwatson * r204 ubuntu/debian/ (64 files in 2 dirs): Update translations from Launchpad.

[15:47] <evand> cjwatson: superm1: Not sure if you guys have any free time between now and feature freeze, but I'd like to get an extra set of eyes on mterry's plugins branch before I merge it (thread on ubuntu-installer@l.u.c) and would greatly appreciate any time either of you can give to it.
