01:55 < jsaw> re
01:56 < jsaw> anybody awake?
02:00 < _Ragnar_> hi
02:00 < _Ragnar_> for a bit
02:00 < jsaw> hi _Ragnar_
02:00 < jsaw> :)
02:00 < _Ragnar_> hey hey
02:00 < _Ragnar_> what's up?
02:00 < jsaw> problem with glibc (trunk)...
02:00 < _Ragnar_> oh O_O
02:00 < jsaw> some internal installation check fails due to -as-needed
02:01 < jsaw> (it uses ldd to check if the program was correctly linked to a specified library)
02:01 < _Ragnar_> oops
02:01 < jsaw> now, what to do, remove as-needed for the install procedure, or simply skip the check?
02:02 < _Ragnar_> skip the check I'd say
02:02 < jsaw> sound reasonable, it looks anyway only necessary if you install over an existing glibc...
02:03 < _Ragnar_> ok but that will likely happen if you do a Emerge-Pkg
02:04 < jsaw> I'd actually didn't think about this case... because it can end up fatal anyway in the case of glibc...
02:04 < jsaw> hmmm...
02:06 < _Ragnar_> yea
02:13 < jsaw> ok, test build running..., gotta do some real work now,
02:13 < jsaw> cu!

04:24 < keinek> como va sparc-kly ?
04:24 < keinek> go to linuxpreview
04:24 < keinek> here is only english.
04:24 < keinek> :/
04:24 < keinek> :)
04:26 < Shingo--> mnemoc: do you known why my firefox installation remain firefox 1.0.4 stuffs? it's normal?

06:13 < Shingo--> mnemoc: hi.
06:14 < Shingo--> my firefox package show me firefox/lib/firefox-1.0.4 and firefox/lib/firefox-1.0.6, is this a problem?
06:15 < Shingo--> of couse it was upgraded.
06:22 < mnemoc> yes, that is normal
06:22 < mnemoc> old files are never deleted
06:23 < mnemoc> because there is not good way to detect orphan files
06:23 < mnemoc> some packages check if the file exists before writting them
06:23 < mnemoc> so simple comparison will consider many files as orphans which are not.
06:32 < Shingo--> it's because lib/firefox-1\.0\.[64]?
06:32 < Shingo--> it in this case the libs are different places.
06:33 < Shingo--> if we remove package before install it?
06:41 < mnemoc> you can, but you may loose configuration file for some packages
06:46 < Shingo--> you saing something generic? can you tell me more?
06:46 < Shingo--> I remember mine do not touch any file out package files. right?
06:54 < mnemoc> only on updates
06:55 < mnemoc> if you uninstall, the files will be preserved
06:55 < mnemoc> but when you reinstall they will get overwritten
06:55 < mnemoc> if you update instead of uninstall/reinstall, all modified files will be backup and restored after
07:08 < mnemoc> i'll go to sleep

08:50 < valentin> moin all
08:52 < Shingo--> are you had sleep well?
08:52 < valentin> rxr: any idea why this line in permisions.d does not work:
08:52 < valentin> KERNEL="hd[a-z]", PROGRAM="/bin/cat /proc/ide/%k/media", RESULT="cdrom", MODE="666"
08:53 < valentin> please not that this works without problems:
08:54 < valentin> KERNEL="hd[a-z]", PROGRAM="/bin/cat /proc/ide/%k/media", RESULT="cdrom", NAME="%k", SYMLINK="cdrom%e
08:54 < valentin> ah, maybe i need that line:
08:54 < valentin> BUS="ide", KERNEL="*[!0-9]", PROGRAM="/bin/cat /proc/ide/%k/media", RESULT="cdrom", ...
09:16 < rxr> one version of udev only used the first matching rule IIRC
09:16 < valentin> sucks !
09:16 < rxr> this changed with versions of udev we do not use yet - because they need a lot of new tweaking due to a lot of incompatible changes
09:16 < valentin> moin rxr
09:16 < Shingo--> there's any doc/info about the './scripts/[Create|Check|Build|*]-*' ?
09:16 < Shingo--> What is a propose for which one?
09:16 < rxr> moin
09:16 < rxr> valentin: I may order the turion 64 laptop now ...
09:16 < morfoh> hi rxr
09:16 < rxr> http://www.hardwarezone.com/articles/view.php?cid=1&id=1659&pg=8
09:17 < rxr> hi morfoh
09:17 < valentin> rxr: so you propose to create a new 650-idepermissions.d ?
09:17 < rxr> valentin: no - try one line as rule
09:17 < rxr> I think udev does only use the first rule ever - it would not even use the other file then IIRC
09:17 < valentin> you mean one line per device ?
09:17 < rxr> but you might need to reread the docu - and we need to migrate to the new udev anyway
09:18 < rxr> valentin: maybe - I'm not yet that fluent with udev - especially not with those people making drastic changs every month
09:19 < rxr> http://www.hardwarezone.com/articles/view.php?cid=1&id=1659
09:19 < rxr> any good reason I should not buy that laptop ?
09:20 < Shingo--> rxr: can you help me, to any way for my question?
09:21 < rxr> oehm - most docs are in the handbook
09:22 < morfoh> rxr: but the article isn't that good, but I think the only thing you're looking on is the 64Bit CPU
09:23 < morfoh> rxr: my friend from the laptop store told me, that they were some cooling problems with the MSI too
09:23 < morfoh> there
09:24 < rxr> morfoh: with that mis 270 or others ?
09:25 < morfoh> rxr: I think it was the 260 with AMD CPU's
09:25 < morfoh> rxr: but anyway he told me that the machines are quite solid
09:25 < Shingo--> rxr: there's any idea to improve doc creation around T2 devel?
09:26 < morfoh> Shingo--: what do you mean with improvements ?
09:26 < morfoh> Shingo--: or what do you have in mind to improve it ?
09:27 < Shingo--> a way to create doc more fast without consume mutch time I think.
09:28 < morfoh> Shingo--: I've tested several markup languages but mostly it's not that easy to write for the web and paper
09:28 < Shingo--> I had my time very busy, but always thinking a way to help with documentation.
09:28 < morfoh> Shingo--: I found ReST (restructured Text) markup quite usefull for that purpose
09:28 < morfoh> Shingo--: but I know some people don't like it
09:29 < morfoh> Shingo--: yep that would be great if you could support t2 with writing docs :)
09:30 < morfoh> Shingo--: for the web I found the markdown markup language quite usefull but afais it's not handy for writing documentation
09:31 < morfoh> so perhaps ReST could be the markup of choice because we can use it for producing web and printable content
09:32 < morfoh> Shingo--: and Zope/Plone CMS what we use as CMS supports ReST too
09:32 < morfoh> Shingo--: btw, ReST is part of the docutils package
09:33 < Shingo--> I see. :)
09:34 < morfoh> Shingo--: http://docutils.sourceforge.net/rst.html ;)
09:34 < Shingo--> morfoh: what do you think are more slow part of documentation process of T2?
09:35 < morfoh> Shingo--: what do you mean ?
09:36 < Shingo--> morfoh: sorry, my english is very poor. just a moment.
09:36 < morfoh> Shingo--: I think the biggest problem is the lack of time as almost
09:37 < morfoh> Shingo--: I think a good way for improving documentation is to form sth. like a "testing user group"
09:38 < morfoh> if the users asking for help on #t2 or on the ML one could try to start with a FAQ or so
09:38 < morfoh> after that extracting some more deteailed information
09:38 < Shingo--> I'm thinking to suggest a "documentation team", to help the main developers
09:39 < morfoh> Shingo--: yes ... that would be great
09:40 < Shingo--> maybe a group to help main developers, maybe people not developers with more time available.
09:40 < Shingo--> the project need people with more free time
09:41 * Shingo-- are a very busy man too. :(
09:42 < morfoh> Shingo--: yes ... I can imagine, but one has to start ... even if he'll be a bit busy

09:42 < morfoh> good morning bfg
09:42 < morfoh> Shingo--: :)
09:43 < Shingo--> morfoh: are direct reponsible to any part of the project?
09:43 < valentin> rxr: how can i set environment variables for the livecd X session ?
09:49 < morfoh> Shingo--: we don't have a fine grained project structure yet, but I'm responsible for some packages like Prelude IDS stuff and I try to help mnemoc with the stable releases because we're using quite the same technolgies in production environment
09:49 < morfoh> Shingo--: besides the fact that master mnemoc is a fine man :)
09:49 < morfoh> men
09:49 < morfoh> brb
10:00 < valentin> rxr: i can do so in kdm's Xsession script

11:52 < morfoh> why the hell kdewebdev needs arts ?
11:52 < rxr> all kde stuff needs
11:53 < morfoh> anyway pkgprefix complains about that it can't find arts ...
11:53 < morfoh> rxr: ok I will change the prio after arts
11:54 < CIA-9> chris * r11197 /trunk/package/kde/kdewebdev/kdewebdev.desc: * changed build priority to build kdewebdev after arts package

12:07 < morfoh> rxr: where have you been ?
12:07 < rxr> though in white and not black due to the white version containing the mt and not the ml turion variant ...

13:15 < bfg> Is there any standard way to extract a second tarball over the first? (the package i want to compile consists of two tarballs, both need to be extracted before the build starts)
13:17 < bfg> i 've found some cmds with tar and match_source_file in other conf-files.
13:21 < bfg> ok i've done it... using a prepatch hook and tar $taropt $(match_source_file ...) -C $builddir
13:39 < rxr> re
13:41 < valentin> hi rxr
13:41 < valentin> i have to fetch a piece of cake now, bbl

14:42 * morfoh finaly renewed his laptop to a shiny fluxbox based desktop :)
14:43 < morfoh> rxr: btw, do we have a check within the build system if localtime is properly set ?
14:43 < rxr> nope
14:43 < morfoh> rxr: what do you think to add it ?
14:44 < morfoh> rxr: i.e. I had problems with xorg's fonts stuff
14:44 < rxr> yep ...
14:45 < rxr> a case for Paraonoia-Check
14:45 < morfoh> rxr: ack ... that would be nice
14:46 < morfoh> mnemoc: around ?
14:48 < morfoh> hmmm .... seems that mnemonkey ;) isn't available atm :(
14:50 < Shingo--> when a package download point to sf.net what is the best way to choose where the download came from?
14:51 < rxr> no mirror of sf
14:51 < Shingo--> rxr: ?
14:51 < rxr> just remove the mirror prefix - t2 will add one
14:51 < Shingo--> ok. :)
14:58 < Shingo--> rxr: I had fixed some bugs in fmnewpackage.sh
15:02 < rxr> Shingo--: nice
15:15 < Shingo--> rxr: I send the update to ML.

16:02 < morfoh> rxr: we should try to establish a mirroring system for our www servers
16:03 < morfoh> and as Shingo-- pointed out to set up a documentation team we should also try to establish a t2 network infrastructure team or sth. like that
16:04 < morfoh> which will take care about the different infrastructure components
16:05 < morfoh> mnemoc: btw, it seems that xfce didn't liked me so I migrated to fluxbox atm :p
16:06 < mnemoc> rxr_: for testing, but using client's name is ugly
16:07 -!- You're now known as rxr
16:07 < rxr> mnemoc: ip == ?
16:07 < mnemoc> morfoh: t2 network infrastructure team?
16:07 < mnemoc> rxr: 201.238.240.51
16:07 < morfoh> mnemoc: why not ?
16:08 < mnemoc> morfoh: what do you mean by that? :)
16:09 < morfoh> mnemoc: a team which will take care about the different systems/services we need to organize the t2 project
16:09 < mnemoc> morfoh: for LDAP/PDC/Mail target what do you like more Menrva (Etruscan) or Minerva (Roman)?
16:09 < morfoh> mnemoc: or call it t2 network administrator bitches group :p
16:09 < mnemoc> morfoh: considering how small our comunity is, i guess t2-team is enough for now :)
16:10 < morfoh> mnemoc: ack ... but we still have some systems around which will need administration
16:11 < mnemoc> morfoh: sure
16:11 < morfoh> mnemoc: and I'm thinking a bit further. i.e. to develop a scalable project infrastructure
16:11 < morfoh> mnemoc: anyway I know you agree with me :p
16:12 < mnemoc> morfoh: i like bazaar style ;)
16:12 < mnemoc> mnemoc: but of course i want a good infrastructure
16:13 < mnemoc> morfoh*
16:13 < morfoh> mnemoc: me too ... that's why we should invest some thoughts in a scalable distributed env
16:13 < rxr> mnemoc: I should rename: http://svn.exactcode.de/big.png
16:13 < rxr> to bazaar.png ...
16:13 < mnemoc> rxr: :D
16:13 < morfoh> rxr: haha ... yeah :)
16:14 < rxr> mnemoc: s.th. strange on my system does cause a kernel hang on trunk reference 5-dcc build ... :-(
16:14 < rxr> I suspect either some IDE or ReiserFS bug ...
16:14 < mnemoc> morfoh: if i win the lottery i want to by t2-powered.net to do some kind of t2 forge
16:14 < rxr> no idea ...
16:14 < mnemoc> weird
16:14 < rxr> mnemoc: should I register t2-powered.net before domain grabbers get it ?
16:15 < mnemoc> rxr: $$?
16:15 < morfoh> mnemoc: I think it will not cost that much
16:15 < mnemoc> 'that much' is budged relative :)
16:16 < morfoh> mnemoc: yeah yeah yeah my friend :)
16:16 < morfoh> rxr: what do you pay for .net domain atm ?
16:17 < morfoh> I guess <20Euro a year
16:17 < mnemoc> .oO( outch )o
16:17 < mnemoc> i considered 123cheapdomains expensive until i knew your registars
16:18 < morfoh> mnemoc: at least I can register .net, .com, .org for 19 Euro a year
16:18 < morfoh> mnemoc: and it becomes even cheaper if I provide my own DNS server
16:19 < mnemoc> i have to go to now, back in 1:30h
16:19 < morfoh> mnemoc: where is to ? :)
16:20 < mnemoc> doctor
16:20 < morfoh> I'll be away for 1.5h too ...
16:20 < morfoh> mnemoc: still sick ?

17:53 < mnemoc> 'distribution name' 'distribution version'
17:53 < mnemoc> 'distribution homepage' 'distribution tpt URL' and 'distributor public key'

20:11 < morfoh> mnemoc: ok
20:13 < mnemoc> i tried porting vs2.0 to 2.1 on a ssp sandbox, and failed to build that which the fix, without the fix builds fine.

20:15 < _Ragnar_> how about updating pcre from 6.1 to 6.3? 6.1 has a potential buffer overflow says heise.de
20:16 < mnemoc> _Ragnar_: any API change?
20:16 < _Ragnar_> dunno yet
20:16 < mnemoc> _Ragnar_: currently i'm testing kde 3.4.2 for merge... and their build takes ages
20:16 < _Ragnar_> oh ok
20:16 < mnemoc> _Ragnar_: after that i can schedule a pcre test update
20:17 < _Ragnar_> I'll try that, too
20:17 < mnemoc> don't forget to schedule every package depending on pcre :)
20:17 < _Ragnar_> yes I'm at that ... there's no automated way for doing that?
20:18 < mnemoc> for pkg in `grep -l pcre package/*/*/*.cache`; do
20:18 < mnemoc> ./scripts/Create-ErrList -cfg foo -remove $pkg
20:18 < mnemoc> done
20:19 < _Ragnar_> not too bad tho, only 30 packages or so

21:29 < mnemoc> jsaw: uhm?
21:30 < jsaw> mnemoc: the package ends with tbz already, so if I convert it, tbz2 will not be found...
21:30 < mnemoc> jsaw: Download should use that function and convert it on download/

21:40 < mnemoc> jsaw: i would like to try lua for TAIL, how would you start the integration on Config/Build-Tools?
21:41 < jsaw> mnemoc: the biggest obstacle I currently see, is, that popen was removed from standard lua io.
21:42 < jsaw> mnemoc: so, to start, I think you will need the "posix" extension
21:42 < mnemoc> jsaw: we could start writting t2lua over standard lua
21:42 < mnemoc> jsaw: without altering core T2
21:43 < mnemoc> jsaw: making it 'leak' inside
21:43 < jsaw> The popen decision has very good reasons, the same reasons, dietlibc has popen in the "libugly" library...
21:43 < jsaw> mnemoc: yes, I have a simple .desc parser somewhere laying around
21:44 < mnemoc> jsaw: i think .desc change has to wait a lot
21:44 < jsaw> mnemoc: I'll fix it and put it into misc/lua
21:44 < jsaw> nonono
21:44 < mnemoc> jsaw: what about lua itself?
21:44 < jsaw> a parser for the current .desc
21:44 < mnemoc> ah, ok
21:44 < mnemoc> jsaw: i would like to not have it as requirement
21:44 < jsaw> what I have sent is only an example who easy it could be loading a desc in lua
21:45 < jsaw> I'm lost, what? as requirement
21:45 < jsaw> ?
21:45 < jsaw> oh, lua
21:45 < mnemoc> to use lua without requireing lua, i.e. building lua on src/
21:46 < jsaw> I was actually thinking of creating a "bootstrap" file that build lua and needed sources into build/tools
21:46 < _Ragnar_> O_o
21:46 < _Ragnar_> complexity++
21:46 < mnemoc> you leave Download, Config and others outside
21:46 < jsaw> Something posix shell compliant which would run on every system
21:46 < jsaw> be it *BSD,*hurd or whatever
21:46 < mnemoc> ash :)
21:47 < jsaw> lua itself builds on a lot of archs (including the hated OS)
21:48 < jsaw> _Ragnar_: well, yes, but this "bootstrap" would have to be executed only once, when you download the build tree
21:49 < _Ragnar_> what advantage does it bring that offsets the complexity?
21:49 < jsaw> which complexity do you mean now, lua or bootstrap?
21:49 < _Ragnar_> lua
21:50 < mnemoc> over lua we could build a fast T2-specific scripting language
21:50 < mnemoc> to really reduce complexity and improve performance
21:50 < jsaw> _Ragnar_: we're talking about changing the base language of T2 since over a year...
21:50 < jsaw> lua is only one possible solution
21:51 < jsaw> rxr would prefer C++
21:51 < _Ragnar_> that leads to gentoo and their pythonness
21:51 < jsaw> no
21:51 < jsaw> definitely not
21:51 < _Ragnar_> I dunno if that's really wanted;p
21:51 < jsaw> the principle of the build system will stay as it is,
21:51 < mnemoc> i would like to try with TAIL first, and see how complex/simple the result is
21:51 < jsaw> be it lua or C++ or python or perl as basic language
21:52 < _Ragnar_> hmm so which parts would be transfered?
21:53 < jsaw> mnemoc: to start with lua, start reading the manual.. it's well written, however mostly applies to 5.0.2 (http://www.lua.org/pil/), but the changes will not be obvious when you start with lua, so...
21:54 < jsaw> _Ragnar_: nothing right now
21:54 < mnemoc> jsaw: i would not rewrite T2 in lua itself, i would rewrite it on T2LUA to simplify what we have now and make it lighter
21:54 < jsaw> _Ragnar_: in the long run, if we stick to some language, the .conf files and the scripts/* and so on
21:55 < mnemoc> i don't like the idea of changing drasticly the .conf,.desc,... syntax
21:55 < jsaw> jsaw: then we should think about using some extended "ash" and not a different language
21:55 < _Ragnar_> hmmm .... sure can try, but I don't see lua making stuff any clearer and easier to maintain then the current shell script setup
21:56 < rxr> re
21:56 < jsaw> speed
21:56 < jsaw> speed
21:56 < jsaw> speed...
21:56 < mnemoc> readability? simplicity?
21:56 < jsaw> _Ragnar_: you need awk, perl, sed, and so on...
21:56 < _Ragnar_> and lua helps that? their pseudo regex support doesn't cut what you can do with sed/awk
21:57 < jsaw> and mnemoc is right, shell syntax is not really a bright example of clarity
21:57 < _Ragnar_> that's true indeed;)
21:57 < jsaw> _Ragnar_: pcre extension to lua...
21:57 < _Ragnar_> adding to the dependency graph for the build system ...
21:57 < mnemoc> lua is extensible, we can extend lua to do on a method what we do with sed/awk and really cleanup our code
21:58 < _Ragnar_> remember, all of that has to build on the host system, which may be screwed up in any way (point to redhat&co)
21:58 < rxr> btw. we ned .zip package automation
21:58 < jsaw> and also embeddable... so can still make rxr happy and embedd lua into some C++ frame ;)

22:00 < rxr> is that new ?

22:01 < mnemoc> rxr: and that extension let you define a custextract on .conf ;)

23:21 < mnemoc> valentin: SDECFG_LANGUAGES="en" by default

23:27 < morfoh> hmmm ... still not working :/
23:27 < morfoh> mnemoc: what should I test on mnemosyne ?
23:34 < mnemoc> valentin: afaik not
23:34 < mnemoc> morfoh: minute
23:35 < CIA-9> amery * r11207 /trunk/target/mnemosyne/mnemosyne.pl: * changed mnemosyne.pl's hack to give an even number of tokens to tsort
23:36 < _Ragnar_> :D
23:36 < mnemoc> morfoh: try that one
23:37 < morfoh> mnemoc: ok :)
23:38 < mnemoc> _Ragnar_: what makes you happy?
23:39 < _Ragnar_> s/happy/smiling/
23:39 < morfoh> mnemoc: why isn't _Ragnar_ allowed to laugh without any question from your side ? :p
23:39 < _Ragnar_> pcre hasn't failed with kdebase yet
23:42 < mnemoc> good reason to smile :)
23:43 < morfoh> Item: Master [Off] <--- alsamixer

23:45 < valentin> or m
23:46 < morfoh> thanks papa valentin ... you're the best :)
23:46 < morfoh> at least one friendly person here :)
23:46 * morfoh hides
23:47 < mnemoc> morfoh: is it sounding now?
23:48 < morfoh> yep ... now I can watch the special movies keinek_ send me :)
23:49 < mnemoc> mnemoc: OT: do you keep wanting syslog-ng on mnemosyne?
23:49 < keinek_> ??
23:49 < mnemoc> s/mnemoc/morfoh/
23:49 < morfoh> ah hi keinek_ ... you're here ...
23:50 < morfoh> hehe :)
23:50 < morfoh> hmmm ... but damn the film is on spanish
23:51 < morfoh> keinek_: ... btw, was just a joke ... I wanted to watch "Hotel Ruanda"
23:51 < mnemoc> morfoh: answer please
23:51 < morfoh> mnemoc: oh! sorry ... why not ?
23:52 < morfoh> socklog is primary logger anyway
23:52 < morfoh> and a lot of people like syslog-ng
23:52 * _Ragnar_ doesn't see why :P
23:52 < morfoh> anyway ... master mnemoc converted me to using socklog
23:53 < morfoh> mnemoc: if you wanted to eliminate it ... go ahead
23:55 < mnemoc> morfoh: i want to rethink current modules
23:56 < morfoh> mnemoc: ack ... that's a good idea ... any other things you want to "kill" ?
