[12:02] <hjd> Hi, I found that the ubuntu delta can be dropped for the moodle packge if the latest version is synced from Debian (http://packages.qa.debian.org/m/moodle.html). However, I notice it has some Release Critical bugs open. At least one of these is affecting the version already in Ubuntu, but the other two might not. Is this a potential concern or should I just file a sync request either way?

[16:53] <soreau> I am wondering if kernel.ubuntu.com kernels have all the commits that upstream (linus/kernel.org) has or if the commits are conglomerations of upstream commits
[17:03] <kees> soreau: ubuntu kernels start from a common branch point (a specific Linus release), then add a small number of changes/features, and then regularly merge back the upstream stable branches.
[17:03] <kees> soreau: you made learn more specifics asking in #ubuntu-kernel too
[17:03] <soreau> kees: oh ok, thanks
[17:35] <michagogo> Hi, I don't see a link in the topic regarding policy or rules or guidelines for this channel, so I'm sorry if I shouldn't be repeating this from 3-4 hours ago.
[17:36] <michagogo> What needs to happen for bug #1314616 to move forward? How does the process work and get advanced from here?

[22:02] <gry> Hello. https://packages.debian.org/wheezy/octave does not depend on Java but the Ubuntu's version does. Is that intended?
[22:21] <gry> Java is only needed for https://www.gnu.org/software/octave/doc/interpreter/Java-Interface-Functions.html - I found it is on by default in the configure, so if it bothers you, I can ask them to probably adjust the default. But I don't know whether this is the real reason or not - please confirm.
[22:25] <Noskcaj> gry, octave in debian does depend on java
[22:26] <Noskcaj> The only current diff is a change to the "breaks", which might be droppable
[22:33] <gry> Noskcaj, I don't see a Java or jdk or jre word on the page I linked.
[22:33] <Noskcaj> because you linked the page from debian stable
[22:34] <Noskcaj> rather than unstable (what we sync from)
[23:27] <ari-tczew> xnox: could you please take a look on bug 1327909 ? there is one patch added by you. is it forwardable to Debian?
