#ubuntu-java 2005-12-09 <hkais> hi <hkais> hi <hkais> is any repository available for java under ubuntu? <hkais> java under ubuntu seems to be bad supported... <tashiro> Why do you think it? <hkais> i searched for tomcat, jre(jsdk 1.4 or 5 and so on with nut much sucess <tashiro> tomcat 5 is in dapper AFAIK. Sun's jdk won't go into Ubuntu/Debian because of license issues <tashiro> hkais: If you need Sun's jvm then you have to package it with java-package. <doko> tashiro, hkais: install j2sdk1.4 from multiverse <hkais> doko: the version of blackdown? <hkais> i have it already <hkais> there can i find a tomcat package? <doko> hkais: read what tashiro did write <hkais> doko: sorry havn't seen it. <hkais> are there any ant support in ubuntu? <hkais> sorry maybe i am to stupid to find some packages in the packages.ubuntu.org <hkais> i found it... #ubuntu-java 2005-12-20 <dous> tashiro: ping <dous> tashiro: perhaps you'd like to join the motujava team on launchpad :) #ubuntu-java 2005-12-21 <tashiro> dous: Sorry for the late response <dous> tashiro: it's okay :) <tashiro> Thank you for the hint, but I think I have enough to do for pkg-java ;-) <dous> okay, then <tashiro> And it helps both ubuntu and debian :-) <dous> yes, I agree <dous> there are currently some more open bugs in ubuntu for eclipse <dous> it hasn't been synced to the latest version yet <tashiro> Yeah, unfortunately <dous> I just thought you'd like to help out <dous> but I think helping with debian upstream is good enough for universe packages <dous> :) <tashiro> I was also talking about motu membership with dholbach.

Since it is a jce provider a signing certificate from Sun is needed to create it. Does ubuntu package the binary from bouncycastle org or do they build from source and sign with a cert of their own? <feNNec_> good day <feNNec_> have a question about java startup in dapper since the last update #ubuntu-java 2006-12-23 <pengo1> hie everyone <pengo1> i want to use database for basic java application on linux? <pengo1> ! <pengo1> which database can i use for begin? <pengo1> can s.o. help me in this topic? <tc75> hi, anyone around? <tc75> got a quick question... #ubuntu-java 2006-12-24 <pengo> hie everyone <pengo> i am working java hardly but how can i use ubuntu api's in java gor gui? <pengo> am i use eclipse=== <pengo> ?? #ubuntu-java 2006-12-26 <feNNec_> hi!! <feNNec_> java startup pb to solve - would smbody help me ? #ubuntu-java 2006-12-28 <[pwned] > hi all <[pwned] > i cant get java to run. <[pwned] > what should i do? #ubuntu-java 2006-12-30 <sg> hi is there any packge for jboss in ubuntu? <sg> new to ubuntu and so far succeeded in installing server <sg> now want to set up jboss and eclipse and java development env #ubuntu-java 2007-12-01 <festor> hi <festor> there are any for here? sorry but my english is bad <man-di> sure <man-di> but we cant help when you dont ask a real question <festor> ok <festor> I am a user of Ubuntu interested in the process of creating packages <festor> Until now I know create packages using dh-make and debhelper <festor> But cdbs not what I understand <festor> And believe it is the only one capable of packaging programs java <festor> First question <festor> cdbs is the only for java? <festor> Second question <festor> If yes <festor> <festor> I would like to know if there is any quick guide for packaging with cdbs a program java <festor> <festor> Or if someone can explain to me how simple the process simpler for packaging eg this program <festor> http://www.ted.nu/ <festor> http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/ted/tedv091.zip?download <man-di> 1.) no, but the easiest <man-di> 2) the best guides are other packages <man-di> and I admit that cdbs docs are not really good so you sometimes need to take a look at its sources <festor> sorry, but... Do you mean to study the file diff deb a package of a java program? <man-di> yes <man-di> well, not the diff but the whole package building sources <man-di> I know this is some kind of big starter hurdle <festor> Do you not I could write a quick demonstration of how to control the cdbs? <festor> With for example the ted program <festor> I learn much better with a base model <man-di> any existing package shoudld be a good base model <man-di> and nobody wrote a java packaginng tutorial yet <festor> Well, :( Thanks for the information, I will see that I can do <man-di> feel free to ask more here <man-di> and read the debian java policy <man-di> it contains useful information <festor> i will try :D #ubuntu-java 2007-12-02 <jussi01> Good evening all, I am wondering whether a program that does not build against gcj can be accepted into the ubuntu repos at all? (I am looking at http://www.artofillusion.org/screenshots ) <jussi01> Alright, I need to head to bed. If someone knows the answer, it would be wonderful if you could email me at: heatherjohnson@example.com . thanks #ubuntu-java 2007-12-03 <matteo> hi all <matteo> i have ubuntu, and using firefox <matteo> many pages with java is much faster under windows than under linux.. do u know why ? <man-di> no patience, these kids today <tmarble> doko: ping <doko> tmarble: pong <tmarble> doko: i am in a meeting atm to discuss icedtea/openjdk in hardy <doko> ahh, interesting =) <tmarble> if nothing else changes... would you put icedtea in main? <PeterT> Hello.

I have a simple question relating to java on Ubuntu <Yacin1> Is it possible to install java JRE on Ubuntu server without a gui desktop? Will it work properly? <tmarble> doko: so it would appear your b24 build was successful? <doko> tmarble: doesn't look so, although the build did suceed here locally <tmarble> doko: i don't understand -- i got this "Fix released" bug updates? <tmarble> oh, you mean it didn't work on the buildd? <doko> tmarble: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/10901142/buildlog_ubuntu-hardy-i386.icedtea-java7_7%7Eb24-1.5%7E20071214-1_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz <tmarble> do you talk to man-di about uploading this for debian (or is he waiting for the ubuntu build to succeed first)? <tmarble> s/do/did <doko> no <tmarble> so was this the 64-bit build? <tmarble> doko: i don't understand why distclean would have failed... did you grab a recent IcedTea snapshot? <doko> tmarble: who talks about distclean? <tmarble> doko: line 1121 in the log <tmarble> doko: did you include openjdk-b24.zip and the bridge 1.2.1 in orig.tar.gz (of course)? <doko> tmarble: the log has 100000 lines <tmarble> doko: opens just great in emacs <doko> tmarble: line 1121 doesn't mater <doko> matter even <tmarble> agreed... but as long as we're looking... <tmarble> doko: is there a launchpad URL where I can see the deb files? <tmarble> it looks like the openjdk-ecj patches may have been applied to late <tmarble> doko: the errors suggest the bootstrap ecj build was not patched correctly (I got this error 2 days ago) <doko> tmarble: wrong, applied around line 1770 <doko> tmarble: won't have time to work on it now. will have to look at it after xmas <tmarble> doko: i realize you are out of time <tmarble> if I were a MOTU would I have the ability to run in the buildd (probably not?) <tmarble> did this succeed for you using pbuilder (i.e. would it be worth me trying this?) <tmarble> is there anyone who could retry the build in your absence? <doko> tmarble: you can upload to the group PPA <tmarble> doko: will that run the same/equiv buildd process? <doko> yes <tmarble> doko: ok... i agree that some of the patching occurred, but the error suggests an ecj problem of some kind (I'll investigate patching and version skew) <tmarble> doko: any hints on how to upload to the PPA (newbie pointers welcome !) <tmarble> doko: i can figure this out from the wiki (etc.) if you are out of time <doko> tmarble: https://help.launchpad.net/PPAQuickStart <tmarble> doko: thx <tmarble> doko: you are now free to relax! you've earned a break! #ubuntu-java 2007-12-15 <figuringout> hi, running dapper - I installed sun-java6 via apt-get.

I contacted the debian maintainers already <persia> hannesw, Best way is indeed to contact the Debian maintainers. If it hasn't been picked up by late January, it might be advanced in Ubuntu, but we try not to do that. <Koon> Team meeting in 10 minutes in #ubuntu-meeting <Koon> persia: aren't you in vacation ? :) <persia> Koon, Yes, but this hotel has bandwidth :) <Koon> Meeting now in #ubuntu-meeting <Koon> slytherin: -> #ubuntu-meeting <hannesw> persia: yes, I did that and it seems like Manu (the debian packager) is going to pick it up. <persia> hannesw, Excellent news then. Thanks for looking into that. <persia> Just on the UDS VoIP topic. <persia> Typically each session is icecasted for listening without participation. <persia> There's usually also a VoIP infrastructure: one requests a temporary VoIP account for the UDS VoIP server, and can connect to each room. <persia> The schedule usually has the VoIP room numbers shown. <slytherin> persia: icecasts is what I was talking about. <persia> Depends on the topic really. You can't talk back to an icecast. Especially if you're likely to be involved in the results of a topic, it's worth using the VoIP connection. <slytherin> For now, I am only interested in listening. <Koon> in some rooms there is also IRC channel projection <mohbana> hello is anyone around? <robilad> yes <mohbana> do i need the 32bit jvm on linux to run javafx <mohbana> or applets for that matter <mohbana> currently, i only have openjdk 64bit installed <mohbana> i don't even know if i got applet support. how do i test it <robilad> http://www.java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml <mohbana> how do i isntall more than one vm? for instance i want to install jre6u11 <robilad> sudo aptitude install sun-java6-jre <mohbana> huh, does that install jre6u11? <mohbana> i think that was just released today <robilad> oh, no idea <robilad> you said for instance <robilad> i thought it was just an example <mohbana> if /opt doesn't exist, shall i just create it with 'sudo mkdir /opt' <mohbana> nvm <mohbana> i could sure use some help <mohbana> any link <mohbana> anyone? <mohbana> hello world <mohbana> if i install via jreu11 via update-alternatives --config java does the webplugin get installed as well <persia> mohbana, Essentially, if you install anything without using the package management system, you're likely to have a few issues, and they're not really issues we'd be well informed to help sort. <mohbana> what's the official name of the applet thingy? <persia> "applet thingy"? <mohbana> running java progs in the browser <persia> I use icedtea6-plugin, but there are probably others that work. <mohbana> i'm gonna ask in the openjdk channel <mohbana> but you tried to say, install the complete jre <persia> No, I only said to use the packaging. The same as when we were talking about building openjdk from source previously. When you use code from upstream, especially when it's not using the same packaging framework, it's unlikely anyone here has the answer to a question. <doko> what is Onkar's nickname? <persia> slytherin <persia> It's 03:00 there, so probably at least a few hours though. <mohbana> sudo update-alternatives --install "whatcaniputinhere" "java" "/opt/jre1.6.0_11/bin/java" 1 <mohbana> can i use "/opt/jre1.6.0_11/bin/java" in "whatcaniputinhere" <mohbana> or does it have to be "/usr/bin/java" <mohbana> ok i've done javaws and java <mohbana> i just can't seem to workout the plugin <mohbana> $ ls -l | grep plugin <mohbana> -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 80843 2008-11-10 10:00 libjavaplugin_jni.so <mohbana> -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 358202 2008-11-10 10:00 libjavaplugin_nscp_gcc29.so <mohbana> -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 268961 2008-11-10 10:00 libjavaplugin_nscp.so <mohbana> so which one do i link to my plug-ins folder <mohbana> ok, i think everone is asleep as it's 3:00 <mohbana> ln -s /opt/jre1.6.0_11/lib/i386/libnpjp2.so /home/mbana/.mozilla/plugins/ <mohbana> something wrong with that? <mohbana> i don't have the icedtea plug-in installed <mohbana> i've restarted firefo <mohbana> x <mohbana> i sure could use help <mohbana> ...... <mohbana> please help <mohbana> any ideas on how i'll configure nsplugginwrapper to use the 32bit plugin #ubuntu-java 2008-12-05 <mohbana> hello, is anyone running javafx <mohbana> on ubuntu #ubuntu-java 2008-12-07 <mohbana> hello, once i've installed sun's java how do i make all apps use it <the_alyx_vance> hi <mohbana> hello, once i've installed sun's java how do i make all apps use it #ubuntu-java 2008-12-09 <tomvolek> morning, does anyone know where can i find com.sun.java.swing.plaf.nimbus.NimbusLookAndFeel package <tomvolek> running SUNJDK 6.10 #ubuntu-java 2008-12-12 <cutout> hello, Am developing a Java application for Linux and am running an external process on a file, my problem is when the file have white space in its path??? how can I over come this problem? <cody-somerville> Use quotes? <cutout> tried it, no use :( <L3538> oi genta #ubuntu-java 2008-12-13 <ubuser1> can someone help me with a simple classpath issue? i have searched google, sun, javaranch etc.... #ubuntu-java 2008-12-15 <cplab2-58> hey do we create a new class file <quadrispro> anyone on bug #307020? <ubottu> Error: Could not parse data returned by Launchpad: (-5, 'No address associated with hostname') (https://launchpad.net/bugs/307020/+text) #ubuntu-java 2008-12-16 <justaquickquesti> hey guys <justaquickquesti> I'm having some issues installing eclipse <justaquickquesti> gcj forces its way in <justaquickquesti> it doesn't matter if I already have java 5/6/openjdk #ubuntu-java 2008-12-17 <deanharris> I need to make shape per char ("a" "b" "c" etc etc ) when "a" "b" "c" etc is detected. anyone help? i got a code file here: http://pastebin.com/d7ee7fbe2 something like this <deanharris> I have a problem with making a shape when the letter is detected.

Can you help me with this? http://pastebin.com/d5c42ba5 The code file shows making a shape when "C" is detected. Thanks #ubuntu-java 2008-12-18 <persia> Team meeting in 10 minutes #ubuntu-java 2008-12-20 <johnc4510> anyone around to answer a question about your teams meetings for the Ubuntu Weekly Newsletter? <johnc4510> This team has meetings scheduled for December 25, 2008 and January 1, 2008. Is this correct? Those are holiday dates and I wasn't sure. #ubuntu-java 2008-12-24 <zhaowm> hello,everyone <zhaowm> Is anybody,here? <Jpdota> hey guys i'm working on packaging a java program i'm writing, and i was wondering how classpaths for jars are supposed to be handled? <Koon> Jpdota: what does your app expect to find ? A directory with all the JARs it should load ? <Koon> or it uses a static per-file classpath definition ? <Koon> in first case, we often use symbolic links from the classpath lib dir to the installed JARs in /usr/share/java <Jpdota> Koon: it expects to find the JAR's in the standard java location, wherever that is i guess, should i create symbolic links from that location to /usr/share/java in the start script for it then? <Jpdota> Koon: or in the install part of the rules file <Koon> in the rules file (use dh_link for example) <Koon> look at existing java packages and see how they do it <Jpdota> Koon: do you know an example of a relatively simple java package? the only ones i know of are openoffice and eclipse which are huge and have a lot of extra stuff in their files <Koon> You can look at tomcat6 <Jpdota> alright thanks <Koon> (but I'm biased) <Jpdota> haha did you package that? <Koon> yes :) <Jpdota> ah :) <Jpdota> that's a pretty popular package isn't it? <Koon> I have no idea. I have little feedback on it, very few bugs posted <Jpdota> that's probably a good thing! <Koon> So sometimes I'm wondering if people don't continue to install it by hand <Jpdota> I would hope not, packaged programs are so much nicer! <Koon> yep :) <Jpdota> at this point in the game with linux, if i have to compile anything i get annoyed :P <Jpdota> and i've been using linux since the days of conectiva and red hat 8 <Jpdota> so i know how to compile a program :P <Jpdota> Koon: if you just run dh_link it knows what to link? <Koon> no, you have to provide it with a links file <Jpdota> ah, that's the tomcat6.links file ok <Koon> or you can specify the link to create in dh_link command line <Koon> see man dh_link <Jpdota> i see <Jpdota> Koon: do the settings you used survive switching JRE's? <Jpdota> for example, using openjdk then switching to sun's jdk and vice versa <Koon> yes... what settings are you talking about ? <Jpdota> the classpath settings <Koon> oh yes, they survive quite well <Jpdota> ah ok <Jpdota> alright thanks for the help Koon im going to bed, i'll look at this some more tomorrow <Koon> cool, merry christmas then. <Jpdota> merry christmas to you too <Jpdota> hello again everyone, i still haven't resolved my issue with the java classpath, even after looking at eclipse and tomcat. my program has two library dependencies, and im trying to see how i would make it so the jarfile for the program can find the jars for two libraries it needs, even if the default jre of the user changes <Jpdota> does anyone know how to do that? #ubuntu-java 2008-12-25 <persia> Jpdota, The default classpath for dependent libraries oughtn't change just because the JRE changes. <persia> Just make sure you have the dependencies correct. <Jpdota> i do have the dependencies correct :-/ <Jpdota> i've been playing around with this problem for two days now and haven't come to a solution <persia> On which packages are you depending? <Jpdota> hsqldb and jpcap <Jpdota> jpcap isn't packaged in ubuntu, but i installed the deb, and i moved the jar to /usr/share/java <Jpdota> but hsqldb is giving me the error <Jpdota> jpcap may too, the program doesnt get that far in its execution <persia> You might want to look at the entagged package, which relies on hsqldb. <Jpdota> entagged? <persia> Yep. It's just an audio file tagger, but since it's packaged and relies on hsqldb, it might contain the hint you need. <Jpdota> ah ok <Jpdota> awesome let me take a look at that one <persia> Good luck. <Jpdota> persia: it's strange, the only mention of hsqldb is it assigns it to a variable which is never used, and the classpath is set using only squareness.jar, but not hsqldb.jar <Jpdota> ah it lists hsqldb.jar in the MANIFEST, but im not sure how that would resolve <Jpdota> one second i'll try doing that in my program <Jpdota> persia: hmm no such luck with that :( <persia> So, the problem is that when you run your program, it's not finding the jar? <Jpdota> correct <Jpdota> could it have something to do with hsqldb.jar being numbered with a version? <Jpdota> what i mean is, in /usr/share/java hsqldb.jar is just a link to hsqldb-(502)257-5948.jar <persia> I would have thought that would work. <persia> As far as I understand things, symlinks get parsed before they are handed to the program, when an open request is made. <persia> So opening /usr/share/java/hsqldb.jar ought to open hsqldb-(502)257-5948.jar. <Jpdota> right, but could the file having a different name matter? <Jpdota> i'm not sure how java does its loading <persia> I don't think it does, but I don't know. <Jpdota> hmm do you want to take a look at what im working with? see if im doing something stupid? this is the first package if packaged for ubuntu/debian <persia> Sure. Post it somewhere. I can't promise to see the problem though. <Jpdota> http://jwc3banlist.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/jwc3banlist/trunk/debian/ <-- link to the svn for the debian directory <persia> I'll recommend using install rather than mkdir -p followed by cp -R <persia> You might also want to look at dh_install, which lets you just make a list. <Jpdota> ah ok <persia> Of course, that's completely unrelated to your issue :) <Jpdota> right, but any advice is of course appreciated :P <persia> Also, drop debian/dirs : you don't need it. <persia> And debian/files should almost never be present <Jpdota> gotcha, i think they autogenerated and i just didn't delete them <persia> I've never been a fan of the autogeneration. <Jpdota> me neither, but i was just following the instructions :P <persia> Also, you want Architecture: all rather than any for this: you only need to compile it once: the jvm should take care of portability. <Jpdota> ok <persia> Oh, I'm a fan of autogeneration in general: I just don't like any of the current autogenerators for debian-format packaging. <persia> Your docs file is empty, and can be dropped. <Jpdota> i tend to dislike it when it's something i'll eventually have to edit, because it usually makes things confusing <persia> That's unfortunately true. Sometimes one gets autogenerators that match one's style, but it's hard to find one. <Jpdota> yeah exactly <persia> Looks to me like you could do most of what you're doing with debhelper 5 or 6, and don't need debhelper 7 (you're not using dh $@). <Jpdota> $@? <persia> Have you tried adding libhsqldb-java to Build-Depends-Indep? I wonder if something is happening at compile time if the package is absent. <Jpdota> nope, i'll try it <persia> $@ is an automatic variable in make that represents the current rule name. debian/rules is a makefile. <Jpdota> ah <persia> Also, please be sure that your procedure for building the release version of bancraft doesn't include the debian/ directory. Having that in the diff.gz file is a widely accepted standard practice, and makes it easier if someone wants to package it for other distributions. <persia> Nothing wrong with having it in your VCS, but be aware that once it's in a repo, there will likely be growing variance between your copy and the version in any given distro. <Jpdota> yeah <Jpdota> true <Jpdota> "I have no package to build" from a bunch of the dh's? <persia> hrm? <Jpdota> from changing the libhsqldb-java to a Build-Depend-Indep and the architecture to all <persia> I wasn't suggesting you switch to dh7, only reduce your requirements. How ar you calling the build? <Jpdota> debuild or do you mean the compile? <persia> debuild <Jpdota> just debuild <Jpdota> it's strange, the program compiles and installs then when it gets to the dh_testdir -a it starts saying it has no package to build <persia> Right. Change -a to -i in binary-indep <Jpdota> ah :X <persia> binary-arch is supposed to be arch-dependent, and use -a, binary-indep is supposed to be arch-independent, and use -i. Sorry for not mentioning this previously. <Jpdota> no problem, i should have rtfm :P <Jpdota> testing different classpaths to see if they work <Jpdota> the one like entagged has doesn't work <Jpdota> unless maybe they make a link one sec <Jpdota> hmm that doesn't seem to have fixed it <Jpdota> i'm so confused, looking at entagged didn't yield anything, im going to see if there's other packages <persia> apt-cache rdepends hsqldb-java provides a short list, unfortunately. <Jpdota> wow, yeah <Jpdota> and i looked at openoffice, whew.... <persia> And you've already looked at openoffice, right? <persia> But your program works unpackaged? <Jpdota> i've looked at openoffice, and i don't understand it at all, way too much "stuff" <persia> Yeah. That's a disturbingly complex package. <Jpdota> yep <persia> You might try #debian-java@OFTC, but dunno how many people will be there: most of the regulars here aren't present today. <Jpdota> i see..hmm <Jpdota> wow there's basically nothing that uses hsqldb <Jpdota> itself, entagged, and oo.org <persia> On the bright side, that's a small set of stuff to investigate to find a solution :) <Jpdota> true, however there's hardly any mention of hsqldb in entagged <persia> But it does use it at runtime, doesn't it? <Jpdota> entagged? <persia> yes. <Jpdota> i would assume so, it requires it <persia> That matches my previous understanding, that as long as the dependencies are correct, it ought to work. <persia> You shouldn't have to do much to be able to use the library. <Jpdota> yeah <Jpdota> i thought that too <Jpdota> have you packaged a java application? <persia> Nope. Reviewed some packages. Fixed a few bugs, but not packaged anything. <Jpdota> ah ok <Jpdota> it shouldn't matter that the program is run as root right? <persia> Shouldn't, although running stuff as root is generally dangerous. <Jpdota> i guess not, even run as a regular user, it doesn't work <Jpdota> yeah i know, it needs to be, it uses libpcap (through jpca) <Jpdota> jpcap) <persia> And it does work with your program just there, unpackaged? <Jpdota> hmm <Jpdota> let me check that the jar it's trying to use works correctly <Jpdota> well it's making the jar anyway but yeah <Jpdota> hmm one sec trying something that may work <Jpdota> nope <Jpdota> well persia thanks for the help, i didn't gain any traction on it so i guess i'll come back after the holidays <persia> Sorry I couldn't be more help. Good luck with it. <Jpdota> persia no problem you helped a lot thanks #ubuntu-java 2008-12-27 <drubin> Any one awake? <Jpdota> persia: I found my idiotic mistake. No amount of fiddling with my rules file would fix it. I somehow emptied the hsqldb.jar file without deleting it. So the file was there when I looked using ls, but Java obviously couldn't use it :( <Tom4> Enter text here...hi all <Tom4> i downloand a jar, but when i do java -jar .. it dont' work and say" Failed to load Main-Class manifest attribute from Blooover2.jar ", i download this pack from different site and say the same thing #ubuntu-java 2008-12-30 <atilathehun> Do a favour, has a list of libraries Java, a Direccion? #ubuntu-java 2008-12-31 <shame> hallo i have question. Where I find url where i register in ##java ? <atilathehun> http://counter.li.org/ <WAR1> hello all <WAR1> how install java on ubnto am follow steeps SUDO - ...... and install it but where find compiler <rdancer> i would like to start using swt, on ubuntu 8.04. what do i have to install? #ubuntu-java 2009-12-03 <ttx> Good morning <nthykier> Hi ttx <ttx> Hey Niels <ttx> nthykier: I probably won't have time to work on tomcat6 before mid-January <ttx> nthykier: We have a lot of things to do in Ubuntu before the lucid alpha2 milestone <ttx> (Jan 14th) <nthykier> ttx: alright; as I recall I only miss LP: #475457 and then all the confirmed bugs on the Ubuntu side should be done. I will try to fix it this weekend and probably get it uploaded as wll <nthykier> well* <ttx> bug 475457 <ubottu> Launchpad bug 475457 in tomcat6 "Adding JSVC_CLASSPATH to /etc/default/tomcat6" [Wishlist,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/475457 <ttx> right <ttx> nthykier: you can ask \sh to prepare a patch for this one <ttx> there is one submitted on the bug but he thought of a better one <ttx> he usually is in #ubuntu-motu <nthykier> ttx: didn't you already post his suggestion? <ttx> nthykier: oh yes <ttx> just in case you needed some help <ttx> but it's rather straightforward ;) <nthykier> ttx: Yeah, I do believe it is just within my capabilities ;) <ttx> nthykier: perfect then :) <nthykier> ttx: Which reminds me that I also need to do a new upload of jetty <ttx> nthykier: fwiw, I should work on getting jetty to ubuntu main sometime this cycle as well <ttx> we currently have a "jetty6" that only does the libraries <ttx> so we'd converge to the jetty in debian <ttx> now that it has been updated to 6 <ttx> so I'll probably test it and report any issue I have with it :) <ttx> again, probably after mid-January. <ttx> (currently, "jetty" is in ubuntu universe) <ttx> for example, ubuntu main will require enabling testsuites wherever we can. <ttx> I had a few issues with it enabling part of it in the jetty6 package :) <nthykier> ttx: Alright - I will probably also upload a new version of jetty before January if I can figure its build out - It blocks the upgrade for eclipse. <nthykier> ttx: But if you have other changes in January we can just add these and re-upload then. <ttx> sure <thkoch> Hi. Anyone coming to FOSDEM ( http://www.fosdem.org ) ? <thkoch> What about a meeting of Debian/Ubuntu Java people there? <ttx> thkoch: I plan to be there <ttx> thkoch: not 100% sure yet I'll be able to come <thkoch> I'm new to Java and Java Stuff in Debian/Ubuntu. Should we start a list of people coming to FOSDEM in some wiki? <ttx> maybe too soon to set a list <thkoch> is there a java irc channel for debian people? <thkoch> found it on oftc <nthykier> thkoch: Sounds like a good idea - not sure I can make it, but I will have a look at it <thkoch> ttx: Sav, that you're interested in hadoop packaging? Do you know, whether the cloudera GIT repo is public somewhere? Do you know, why they make new packages (*-18, *-20) for new hadoop releases? <ttx> thkoch: haven't followed up on them recently <thkoch> Maybe time to poke cloudera again :-) <thkoch> For those interested in Hadoop. I made some updates here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HadoopPackagingSpec #ubuntu-java 2009-12-04 <AnAnt> doko_: ping <AnAnt> what's the point of "this was changed in the eclipse-3.5 packaging" ? <doko_> AnAnt: ? <AnAnt> doko_: LP #491880 <ubottu> Launchpad bug 491880 in eclipse "eclipse source package provides libswt* binary packages that would conflict with swt-gtk" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/491880 <doko_> AnAnt: what is your question? <AnAnt> you said that eclipse 3.5 changed (I think you meant regarding the naming of libswt* packages) <AnAnt> so the question is why was that done ? <doko_> ask the guys who did the change <AnAnt_> sorry, I have a bad connection <AnAnt_> you said that eclipse 3.5 changed (I think you meant regarding the naming of libswt* packages) <AnAnt_> so the question is why was that done ? <doko_> ask the guys who did the change <doko_> I just pointed out this is not an Ubuntu only change <AnAnt_> oh , you mean it's in Debian too ? <doko_> did you see 3.5 in Debian? <AnAnt_> no <AnAnt_> then, what do you mean by "not an Ubuntu only change" ? <AnAnt_> ? #ubuntu-java 2009-12-06 <AnAnt> bdrung: ping <bdrung> AnAnt: pong <AnAnt> bdrung: yes, I wonder why eclipse changed the naming convention for libswt* packages ? <AnAnt> bdrung: is it intended that swt-gtk source package won't be updated anymore ? <AnAnt> hmm, later <AnAnt> back <nthykier> AnAnt: Hi - I am not quite sure what the future of the swt-gtk source is. The maintainer of it is a member of the eclipse team as well and as I recall, he did the renaming of the swt packages from eclipse. I never questioned his reasons for this. <AnAnt> I think you mean Adrian, I talked to him on OFTC, and he told me to file a bug on LP against eclipse, so that's what I did <nthykier> AnAnt: for the rename of the eclipse binary swt package when he did it himself? <AnAnt> 15:57 <blackxored> seems like we took that approach since they were pushing into maintaining a single copy of swt-gtk, the eclipse one <AnAnt> 15:57 <blackxored> it should be fixed soon <AnAnt> 15:57 <blackxored> but you can get most of our attention if you file a bug against the source package <AnAnt> 15:57 <blackxored> we would eventually rename binary packages <AnAnt> so I filed the bug <nthykier> AnAnt: Hmm, thanks for the clarification. <AnAnt> but since then, I've been getting comments on the LP bug that gave me the impression that eclipse won't revert back the naming convention for libswt* packages <nthykier> AnAnt: I do not mind renaming back the packages to their original name (again I never saw the reason for renaming in the first place). <nthykier> AnAnt: I admit that I hope that the swt provided by eclipse will eventually replace the swt-gtk source package and will love to fix the other problem you reported (the SWTError) <AnAnt> fine with me, but I hope that both Ubuntu & Debian have a unified (or at least compatible) approach regarding eclipse & swt-gtk <nthykier> AnAnt: Don't worry, we intend to maintain eclipse in Debian as well. <AnAnt> good #ubuntu-java 2009-12-08 <airwolf> hi there <airwolf> i need some help <airwolf> i need help installing java <airwolf> can any 1 help me <nthykier> airwolf: what is the problem? <airwolf> well win i type su thin my pass it said that it is not valid <airwolf> and i have set all the passes the same <nthykier> airwolf: Then your problem is not installing java - your problem is acquiring root access. <airwolf> yes so i can install java <airwolf> it has bin like 6 years sis i ran a linux pc <airwolf> sins <airwolf> any idea how to fix it while im still in the chat to do a walk thru <airwolf> i have the turminel up <airwolf> terminel <airwolf> if you cant help can you tell me the channel i have to go to to get the help <nthykier> airwolf: Try in #ubuntu - I *think* that is the correct channel for it <nthykier> This channel is for packaging java programs/libraries. <airwolf> okay sorry <nthykier> airwolf: its okay. <airwolf> im new to irc <nthykier> airwolf: /topic may help you to tell what the channel is about (assuming the operators set a decent message) #ubuntu-java 2009-12-10 <guanyu> ##java #ubuntu-java 2009-12-11 <JAMMAN2110> Does this channel cover the tomcat package on Ubuntu Server 9.10? #ubuntu-java 2009-12-14 <AnAnt> Hello, I have a question about Minutes from the Developer Membership Board meeting, 2009-12-08 <AnAnt> it said regarding Adrian Perez: * swt-gtk approved (+1: cjwatson, pitti, kees, mdz) <AnAnt> what exactly was approved ? <persia> Permitting blackxored to be able to upload swt-gtk <AnAnt> oh <AnAnt> persia: does blackxored come today ? <AnAnt> on mondays I mean <persia> I'm not sure of a regular schedule.
