| [00:06] <nixternal> anyone ever just do a dist-upgrade from an EOL release to something recent? | |
| [00:07] <nixternal> i got a new client today that is using Kubuntu for a server :/ don't ask, it seems his old IT guy used it because he liked it, but it is edgy 6.10. All I can do, other than spending hours do a fresh install, which I just might end up doing, it try a dist-upgrade, but I am kind of scared of potential issues I will have to deal with | |

| [12:42] <yofel> !info ubuntu-sso-client-qt precise | apol | |
| [12:42] <ubottu> apol: ubuntu-sso-client-qt (source: ubuntu-sso-client): Ubuntu Single Sign-On client - Qt frontend. In component main, is extra. Version 2.99.4-0ubuntu2 (precise), package size 33 kB, installed size 322 kB | |
| [12:42] <Riddell> apol: no it's in the archives and available to install, I yet know if it works | |
| [12:42] <yofel> which reminds me I never finished ksecrets | |
| [12:42] * yofel takes another look at that | |
| [12:43] <apol> Riddell: ok, since it's not going to happen until 12.10 we'll have the time to figure something out | |
| [12:44] <Riddell> apol: it is going to happen to ubuntu desktop | |
| [12:44] <Riddell> kubuntu is a complete unknown | |
| [12:44] <apol> :) | |
| [12:45] <apol> Riddell: well I guess that if I make muon to use it, we can pull it, no? at least optionally | |
| [12:45] <Riddell> apol: yes | |
| [12:45] <yofel> apol: it's in main, so feel free to use it | |
| [12:45] <Riddell> for kubuntu beware of disk size on kubuntu for 12.04, for 12.10 it won't matter | |
| [12:45] <apol> :) | |
| [12:45] <Riddell> and I haven't got it to work yet so beware of it needing unknown gtk bits to actually work | |
| [12:48] <apol> Riddell: well, I discussed about it with #ubuntuone people (they turned out to be good people in the end, as always :D) | |
| [12:48] <apol> Riddell: apparently it won't pull ugly gnome stuff in the future | |
| [12:49] <apol> like keyring (they use secret service api) | |
| [12:49] <apol> it's still using python a lot, but I think kubuntu already uses that, right | |
| [12:49] <yofel> right | |
| [12:52] <Riddell> we do like our python (well I do) | |

| [14:00] <Riddell> ScottK: what was wrong with the PyQt4 split proposal? | |
| [14:00] <Riddell> if dobey doesn't have time to work on it then everything else on the client side of ubuntu one for this cycle will go to waste, bad planning somewhere | |
| [14:01] <ScottK> It would have broken packages that depend on python-qt4 and use some of the modules he split out into seperate packages. | |

| [15:13] <markey> hey all | |
| [15:13] <markey> on dist-upgrade from 10.04 to 10.10 I'm stuck with this error: | |
| [15:13] <markey> E: Internal Error, Could not early remove libcups2 | |
| [15:14] <markey> any ideas how to get out of this? | |
| [15:16] <Riddell> dist-upgrade isn't a supported way to do release updates, only the upgrade tool is | |
| [15:16] <markey> doh | |
| [15:16] <Riddell> which is another way of saying, sorry I don't know | |
| [15:16] <markey> now I'm stuck with a half upgraded system | |
| [15:17] <BluesKaj> markey, upgrading to the next release is now done with sudo do-release-upgrade | |
| [15:17] <Quintasan> markey: Theoretically you could force remove it via dpkg, try upgrading and then installing it and pray nothing breaks meantime | |
| [15:17] <markey> Quintasan: thanks I think I'll try that | |
| [15:18] <Quintasan> markey: I'm not held responsible for any dead kittens | |
| [15:18] <markey> yeah I guess it can't get much worse though | |
| [15:26] <markey> Quintasan: do you know the syntax for this force remove? | |
| [15:26] <markey> the man page is kinda confusing | |
| [15:27] <yofel> markey: dpkg -r<package> | |
| [15:27] <yofel> add --force-depends if it doesn't want to remove it due to dependencies | |
| [15:27] <yofel> *-r <package> | |
| [15:28] <Quintasan> thanks yofel | |
| [15:28] <markey> thanks | |
| [15:30] <markey> yiikes, now the same thing happens with libaudio2 | |
| [15:30] <markey> I'm getting the feeling this system is hosed | |
| [15:31] <markey> oh wow, now it's continuing | |
| [15:31] <markey> maybe, just maybe, I'm lucky | |
| [15:31] <Quintasan> repeat until $(works) | |
| [15:31] <markey> yep | |
| [15:33] <markey> why I didn't upgrade with KPackageKikt: It didn't offer to upgrade. I've ignored the upgrade notification for ages. today I finally wanted to upgrade, but it wasn't offered | |
| [15:39] <bulldog98> Riddell: why have I no commit rights to kubuntu-dev? | |
| [15:39] <yofel> bulldog98: because you are no kubuntu-dev? | |
| [15:39] <yofel> (yet) | |
| [15:40] <Riddell> it has a process similar to kubuntu-members | |
| [15:40] <yofel> kubuntu-members have commit rights to ~kubuntu-packagers only | |
| [15:40] <Riddell> but don't let that put you off | |
| [15:40] <bulldog98> ok | |
| [15:40] <bulldog98> so I need to work a bit | |
| [15:40] <bulldog98> no problem | |
| [15:40] <yofel> file a merge request and poke one of us | |
| [15:40] <Riddell> you neeed to organise a meeting with the rest of the ~kubuntu-dev members and convince us you're competant (which won't be hard) | |
| [15:41] <bulldog98> yofel: ok | |
| [15:41] <yofel> or apply for kubuntu-dev ;) | |
| [15:41] <schnelle_> yofel: what is the status of new version of kmess? is it packaged for precise? | |
| [15:42] <yofel> schnelle_: not yet, did they publish it? | |
| [15:42] <schnelle_> not yet on their official site | |
| [15:42] <schnelle_> tagging in git is not enough? | |
| [15:43] <yofel> It's better to have the official tarball | |
| [15:44] <schnelle_> well one of devs said: | |
| [15:44] <schnelle_> <ruben> I don't have the full access to the sourceforge account | |
| [15:44] <schnelle_> <ruben> so can't upload the tarbal myself | |
| [15:44] <schnelle_> so they are probably waiting so dev eith upload rights | |
| [15:44] <schnelle_> to upload it... | |

| [16:03] <Riddell> thanks | |
| [16:18] <markey> yofel: Quintasan: it seems I was lucky after all, the upgrade worked. but now I'm still missing libcups2 and libaudio2, which I had force-removed earlier. apt-get install says "can't find file". how could I get them back? | |
| [16:18] <markey> (I don't have any sound now) | |
| [16:19] <yofel> hm, that can't find file sounds familiar.... | |
| [16:19] <Quintasan> markey: look in /etc/apt/sources.list for oneiric entries and change them to precise | |
| [16:19] <Quintasan> apt-get update | |
| [16:19] <markey> apt-get install claims it's already installed. but --reinstall gives this error | |
| [16:19] <Quintasan> then try cleaning the /var/cache/apt/ | |
| [16:20] <markey> "precise"? | |
| [16:20] <Quintasan> i.e remove all debs from that directory | |
| [16:20] <yofel> Quintasan: wrong release | |

| [16:20] <yofel> ah, oneiric then | |
| [16:20] <markey> it's oneiric now | |
| [16:21] * Quintasan wonder why amarok crashes on windows for him | |
| [16:21] <markey> should I simply rm -f /var/cache/apt? | |
| [16:21] <Quintasan> it worked | |
| [16:21] <Quintasan> nah | |
| [16:22] <Quintasan> markey: rm -r *.deb /var/cache/apt | |

| [16:41] <markey> hah, figured it out after googling | |

| [17:53] <markey> back at home | |
| [17:54] <markey> this multiarch thing was really a bitch | |
| [17:54] <markey> are all packages like this now? | |
| [18:01] <shadeslayer> markey: most, yes | |
| [18:01] <shadeslayer> markey: they got rid of ia32-libs iirc | |
| [18:01] <shadeslayer> it's a better solution than those libs I believe | |
| [18:01] <shadeslayer> or so I'm told | |
| [18:02] <shadeslayer> *sigh* | |
| [18:02] <markey> would be nice if --reinstall could detect this, and use the correct syntax for multiarch | |
| [18:02] <yofel> well, it's the right way to do it, just the implementation in dpkg and apt is buggy | |
| [18:02] <shadeslayer> Prime got a boot unlocker tool | |
| [18:04] <markey> I mean, you need deep insider knowledge for coming up with this (unless you are lucky with google, like I was) | |
| [18:07] <shadeslayer> markey: then again, you were doing it wrong :P | |
| [18:08] <markey> that's what I wanted to add: despite me screwing up badly, everything went fine in the end. shows how good the packaging system is | |
| [18:09] <shadeslayer> yeah, dpkg is quite robust | |
| [18:09] <markey> yep | |
| [18:09] <markey> I was using Arch for a while. the packaging just does not compare | |
| [18:09] <shadeslayer> I had some issues with libc6 itslef, still let me fix up my system | |
| [18:09] <markey> feels like the packages hold together with glue and saliva | |
| [18:10] <shadeslayer> haha ^^ | |
| [18:10] * shadeslayer drinks some more cough syrum | |
| [18:10] <markey> it's far easier to create Arch packages I hear, but it comes at a price :) | |
| [18:10] <shadeslayer> s/syrum/syrup/ | |
| [18:10] <kubotu> shadeslayer meant: "drinks some more cough syrup" | |
| [18:11] <shadeslayer> I tried arch once | |
| [18:11] <shadeslayer> nearly destroyed everything on my HD trying to install it | |
| [18:11] <shadeslayer> then again, I was naive ... | |
| [18:12] <markey> my experience was fairly positive in the beginning, until I wanted to install some lesser popular packages | |
| [18:12] <shadeslayer> :D | |
| [18:13] <markey> back then they also didn't have any dbg packages, that sucked a lot | |
| [18:13] <shadeslayer> they also don't have -dev packages | |
| [18:14] <markey> I think -dev is always included like in Gentoo? | |
| [18:14] <yofel> IIRC it was gentoo based, so I would assume they are | |
| [18:14] <markey> hm yes | |
| [18:14] * yofel only used gentoo for a bit, never arch | |
| [18:14] <shadeslayer> idk I was told they had no -dev packages, lemme recheck | |
| [18:15] <markey> hey, honest question: what do you guys think of RPM these days (with zypper and all that jazz) | |
| [18:15] <markey> is it on par with dpkg/apt? | |
| [18:15] <shadeslayer> ah | |
| [18:16] <ScottK> My last experience with it was in 2006 with opensuse 10.1. It was enough of a disaster for me to say never again. | |
| [18:16] <shadeslayer> yes, seems like the guy who I was talking to made a typo and my brain just registered -dev ... :P | |
| [18:16] <markey> ScottK: same here. but it has improved tons to be fair. I just don't know if it's as good as dpkg now | |
| [18:16] <shadeslayer> I became too comfy with apt/dpkg and everything else just seems pointless now | |
| [18:17] <markey> we use SUSE for some special cases at work (but Kubuntu on our devel machines) | |
| [18:17] <ScottK> I don't actually know, but when I look in rpm spec files they seem to be missing a lot of stuff we can do in /debian. | |
| [18:17] <maco> markey: zypper is a big improvement over yast omg | |
| [18:17] <markey> omg yast | |
| [18:17] <BluesKaj> dpkg does all the work , apt just relays the message | |
| [18:17] * yofel has opensuse and fedora VM's, but never looked closely at rpm | |
| [18:17] <markey> the stuff of my nightmares | |
| [18:17] <shadeslayer> hehe | |
| [18:17] <maco> markey: though i dont know.... is it possible to batch import a bunch of repos in suse AND THEN refresh the available package list yet? | |
| [18:18] <shadeslayer> I tried out opensuse once, worked good for 10 minutes before slowing down and asking me accept a bunch of licenses | |
| [18:18] <markey> maco: I wouldn't know... | |
| [18:18] <maco> when i tried to use yast in 2007, you added a repo...then it refreshed..then you added a repo...then it refreshed... | |
| [18:18] <markey> I've written a couple of .spec files, the format is fairly sane | |
| [18:18] <maco> it took like a half hour to get repos set up so i could fix the broken graphics drivers | |
| [18:18] <yofel> from what I see it's rather easy to add patches to a package in opensuse | |
| [18:18] <maco> spec files make sense, they're just annoying in their monolithicness | |
| [18:18] <yofel> with quilt it's not too hard for us too | |
| [18:19] <shadeslayer> ^ | |
| [18:19] <yofel> now it would be cool if you could do that from the launchpad UI | |
| [18:19] <ScottK> Ironically Libzypp is the disaster that caused me to leave opensuse. | |
| [18:19] <markey> maco: how do you mean monolithic? as opposed to what? | |
| [18:19] <shadeslayer> yofel: right after they fix the timeout issues when copying entire repo's | |
| [18:19] <ScottK> markey: One big file instead of a number of files in a directory. | |
| [18:19] <markey> ah yes | |
| [18:20] <maco> markey: in debian packages, you can have a file for each binary package generated, listing what goes in it. in spec files you just make a bajillion lines of text in one file | |
| [18:20] <maco> lots of scrolling, no side-by-side compare... | |
| [18:20] <yofel> shadeslayer: well, that's only really doable by disabling timeouts for copying, matching the backend workload | |
| [18:20] <markey> that's not a huge issue though, usually you separate sections with comment lines | |
| [18:20] <markey> in practice that's ok | |
| [18:21] <shadeslayer> *nod* | |
| [18:21] <shadeslayer> yofel: what I would really like would be some sort of CI system that integrates with LP | |
| [18:21] <shadeslayer> s/LP/bzr/ | |
| [18:21] <kubotu> shadeslayer meant: "yofel: what I would really like would be some sort of CI system that integrates with bzr" | |
| [18:22] <yofel> CI? | |
| [18:22] <shadeslayer> Continuous Integration ... or rather Continious Packaging in our case | |
| [18:22] <yofel> ah | |
| [18:22] <markey> next level: Continuous Delivery | |
| [18:22] <shadeslayer> and not just for PPA's, I mean for archive | |
| [18:23] <yofel> well, handling bzr and quilt conflicts is the more pressing issue | |
| [18:23] <shadeslayer> hehe | |
| [18:23] <markey> I guess that would translate to Rolling Releases for distros ;) | |
| [18:23] <shadeslayer> well, afaik you can handle that easily as well | |
| [18:24] <shadeslayer> as long as the patches are well documented | |
| [18:24] <shadeslayer> the first few lines usually have the git commit hash ( of a upstream'd patch ) | |
| [18:24] <shadeslayer> so you just convert that hash to a bzr rev using the bzr-git plugin and compare it with the code branch | |
| [18:25] <shadeslayer> \end dream | |
| [18:25] <markey> is BZR usable when you are used to Git? | |
| [18:25] <yofel> *drool* | |
| [18:25] <markey> I always wondered why you don't use Git | |
| [18:25] <shadeslayer> markey: you get used to it | |
| [18:25] <shadeslayer> I mean, I know the basics | |
| [18:25] <yofel> markey: it tries to behave like a mix between git and svn, so takes a bit getting used to, but it's usable | |
| [18:25] <shadeslayer> unlike git, where I can do all sorts of stuff now | |
| [18:25] <markey> ok | |
| [18:26] <yofel> markey: launchpad doesn't support git <end of reason> | |
| [18:26] <shadeslayer> ^ | |
| [18:26] <markey> hehe yeah, not your decision I guess | |
| [18:26] <shadeslayer> yeah, unless somehow we gain access to production servers <evil laugh> | |
| [18:28] <markey> I guess BZR is meant to be easier to use? | |
| [18:29] <shadeslayer> yeah, that's the idea I think | |
| [18:30] <shadeslayer> Anyone up for packaging KDevelop? I'm going to be AWOL starting tomorrow | |
| [18:30] <yofel> I like that it behaves synchronized like svn if I want it to (and that's how I usually want it to behave) | |
| [18:30] <shadeslayer> ^ I'm not in favor of that behavior | |
| [18:31] <shadeslayer> git gives you *alot* more flexibility in that scenario | |
| [18:31] <yofel> I committed something to git more than once only to forget to push and later wondering where that commit is | |
| [18:31] <shadeslayer> made a faulty commit and/or want to add more stuff your commit? git rebase -i HEAD~1 | |
| [18:31] <yofel> I do sometimes use bzr like the DVCS that it really is, but it's nice that it can work both ways | |
| [18:32] <shadeslayer> heh | |
| [18:32] <shadeslayer> git gets hard to track sometimes tho | |
| [18:32] <shadeslayer> when you have a bazillion branches .... | |
| [18:32] <yofel> now there I prefer git over bzr | |
| [18:32] <yofel> bzr essentially does branching the svn way.... | |
| [18:32] <yofel> (fs-layout wise) | |
| [18:33] <yofel> only that merging is much easier | |
| [18:37] <shadeslayer> I just mean that managing branches can be a bit tedious with git, I've never tried out branching with bzr | |
| [18:37] <shadeslayer> or SVN for that matter | |
| [18:38] <yofel> shadeslayer: the moment you make a diconnected checkout with bzr you have a branch. You really can't do anything else but branching there | |
| [18:38] <yofel> svn branching was pretty much like svn tagging | |
| [18:38] <shadeslayer> so essentially, no real branching | |
| [18:39] <yofel> guess the rest | |
| [18:39] <shadeslayer> I've not really had alot of experience with svn | |
| [18:39] <shadeslayer> mostly svn co, svn commit and svn log :P | |
| [18:39] * shadeslayer is a child of the git generation | |
| [18:40] <yofel> be happy about it | |
| [18:40] <shadeslayer> lol | |
| [18:40] * yofel is happy that he isn't a child of the cvs generation ^^ | |
| [18:42] <shadeslayer> Interestingly, KDE has seen all 3 ... | |
| [18:44] <BluesKaj> do you guys remember the method to reinstall with alternate live cd , where just installing the OS without rteformatting would save the home dir data and desktop settings ? | |
| [18:44] <yofel> I know the live disk can do that, but I've never tried that with d-i | |
| [18:45] <BluesKaj> with just a / partition , no /home yofel | |
| [18:45] <shadeslayer> Just don't format the disk? Shouldn't it install over the existing install and not mess with other stuff? | |
| [18:46] <BluesKaj> shadeslayer, yeah , I recall doing so on 10.10 ...wondered if it still works | |
| [18:47] <shadeslayer> BluesKaj: boot a live disk -> Back up data -> Reinstall ? | |
| [18:47] <yofel> IIRC ubiquity will remove everything except /home (and tell you that) if you tell it to install on a partition that has an ubuntu install on it | |
| [18:48] <yofel> needs the manual partitioning way | |
| [18:48] <yofel> I think | |
| [18:48] <shadeslayer> ^ Yeah, I'm not entirely sure either, so take a backup | |
| [18:48] <shadeslayer> just in case | |
| [18:50] <BluesKaj> shadeslayer, I recall being very surprised that the data was still there , and the desktop settings ...didnt use ubiquity ...didnt reformat either | |
| [18:52] <BluesKaj> alternate install cd | |
| [19:01] <shadeslayer> oh | |
| [19:01] <shadeslayer> yofel: where is the kopypackages script? | |
| [19:01] * shadeslayer doesn't remember | |
| [19:01] <shadeslayer> kubuntu-dev-tools? | |
| [19:01] <yofel> kubuntu-dev-tools | |
| [19:01] <shadeslayer> cool | |
| [19:02] <shadeslayer> I'll try and hack on it a bit tonight to see if I can get it to copy entire repos ... | |
| [19:02] <yofel> oh right, you wanted me to add copying all releases at one | |
| [19:02] <yofel> *once | |
| [19:02] <shadeslayer> yes | |
| [19:02] <shadeslayer> I'll try to do it tonight :P | |
| [19:04] <yofel> shadeslayer: in the option settings at the bottom, every case has a match against == from_release. Feed the other part of that check to copy_package instead of to_release and find a good way to expose that to the user and you're done | |
| [19:04] <yofel> would justify adding a variable for that | |
| [19:07] <shadeslayer> looking | |
| [19:07] <yofel> the release check should be a seperate method really | |
| [19:07] <yofel> would make things easier here | |
| [19:17] <shadeslayer> yofel: I might have a easier way | |
| [19:17] <shadeslayer> After: if options.all: | |
| [19:17] <shadeslayer> if I add, if len(args) == 2 | |
| [19:17] <shadeslayer> then it simply means that the user did not specify the release | |
| [19:18] <shadeslayer> I can then copy all releases | |
| [19:18] <shadeslayer> ( I need to check if the first/second arg is a PPA ofcourse ) | |
| [19:18] <yofel> hm yeah, that would work too | |
| [19:20] <yofel> which makes specifying the target release easy actually | |
| [19:21] <yofel> but needs some overally fixes in the script | |
| [19:26] <shadeslayer> yep | |
| [19:26] <yofel> shadeslayer: I have another idea, give me a minute | |
| [19:26] <shadeslayer> sure | |
| [19:26] <shadeslayer> I'm just giving it a bit of structure as of now | |
| [19:27] <shadeslayer> It feels weird in python world | |
| [19:27] <shadeslayer> I've gotten too used to using C/C++ | |
| [19:29] <yofel> now I need something to test this on.. | |
| [19:29] <shadeslayer> well I can do that | |
| [19:30] <shadeslayer> I can just copy the tp packages from the official repo to my unoffical repo | |
| [19:34] <shadeslayer> yofel: are you writing that functionality? | |
| [19:34] <yofel> shadeslayer: well, essentially, yes ^^ | |
| [19:34] <shadeslayer> heh :P | |
| [19:35] <shadeslayer> let me know when its open for testing then :D | |
| [19:38] <shadeslayer> Riddell: your ec2 script seems outdated as well | |
| [19:39] <yofel> shadeslayer: committed | |
| [19:40] <yofel> use 'all' for the source and target release | |
| [19:43] <shadeslayer> sec | |
| [19:46] <shadeslayer> works :) | |
| [19:46] <yofel> \o/ | |
| [19:48] <shadeslayer> yofel: have you read this btw : http://shop.oreilly.com/product/9780596001674.do | |
| [19:49] * shadeslayer is thinking of buying it | |
| [19:49] <yofel> no | |
| [19:49] <DasKreech> Is that a jackalope? | |
| [19:49] <shadeslayer> DasKreech: looks like it :D | |
| [19:50] <shadeslayer> there's this as well : http://shop.oreilly.com/product/9780596158118.do?green=0793EC36-E771-5284-A742-0DCFF5606418&cmp=af-mybuy-9780596158118.IP | |
| [19:52] <shadeslayer> Well, atleast this confirms my data is actually encrypted with google : http://wstaw.org/m/2012/02/22/plasma-desktopuo2537.png | |
| [19:59] <shadeslayer> Night everyone | |
| [20:05] <DasKreech> night | |
| [20:14] <rbelem> shadeslayer, it is a good book | |
| [20:15] <rbelem> shadeslayer, but not essential imho | |
| [20:16] <rbelem> bulldog98, no idea | |
| [20:16] <bulldog98> rbelem: hm bad plasma-desktop doesn’t even start | |
