<DaaT> :)
<bluekuja> hi DaaT
<DaaT> hi
<bluekuja> DaaT, need something?
<DaaT> having problems with a getdeb.com transmission pkg
<DaaT> but i've contacted the author
<bluekuja> DaaT, new release should be in debian already
<bluekuja> I think not the latest
<DaaT> it's 0.91
<DaaT> the latest i mean
<bluekuja> and in debian is?
<DaaT> in synaptic its 0.72
<bluekuja> in debian I see a first release
<bluekuja> with no updates
<bluekuja> since august 2006
<jdong> bluekuja: I'm gonna play with swt-gtk 3.3 from Debian and see if I can bootstrap azureus (930)970-5854 on Hardy
<bluekuja> jdong, great, let me know if you need an hand for testing
<javamaniac> bluekuja, heya
<bluekuja> javamaniac, heya mate
<bluekuja> javamaniac, did you see latest revision?
<javamaniac> bluekuja, which bug did you fixed?
<javamaniac> yep
<bluekuja> javamaniac, menu one and gnome-btdownload empties the field "name" when opening a .torrent
<bluekuja> (fixed upstream)
<bluekuja> now we a clean BTS
<javamaniac> great!
<bluekuja> :)
 * javamaniac hugs bluekuja 
 * bluekuja hugs javamaniac too 
<bluekuja> :)
<javamaniac> hehe :)
<bluekuja> I've tried to package 0.0.30
<bluekuja> but there is a problem on building
<bluekuja> I guess a deps change
<bluekuja> we'll wait to have it fixed
<bluekuja> before moving to package it
<javamaniac> oh ok, I'll look into it too
<bluekuja> fine :)
<jdong> bluekuja: uh oh I awoke doko again
<bluekuja> lol
<jdong> bluekuja: ok, doko's markedly pissed that I'm not reapplying the native theming patches.... I'll prep a package with them tonight and attach a test deb for gutsy onto the bug report
<jdong> as long as it doesn't make azureus explode I honestly don't care either way with the patches
<bluekuja> true
<bluekuja> when the report is open
<bluekuja> tell me
<jdong> I am beginning to finally undersatnd why nobody likes to touch Azureus
<jdong> I merely wanted to know why the patches were important
<jdong> and the response I got back was basically if I wasn't going to do it he would upload it.
<jdong> oh well at any rate, bio homework now, azureus fun later
<jdong> but mark my words, the moment anything goes wrong with Azureus I'm going to be blamed to no end
<bluekuja> yeah
<bluekuja> that's for sure
<bluekuja> I hope everything will be ok
<bluekuja> don't want ppl to blame you after tons hours spent
<bluekuja> on working on it

<Sandig> hello
<Sandig> i'm trying to install transmission on a fresh install of ubuntu 7.10
<Sandig> but apparently it can't find the package in the repository
<Sandig> i'm using "sudo apt-get install transmission"
<Sandig> and it says "E: Couldn't find package transmission"
<bluekuja> Sandig, is universe enabled?
<Sandig> i think so
<bluekuja> Sandig, check that please
<bluekuja> /etc/apt/sources.list
<Sandig> under applications->add/remove->preferences i have all the sources (including universe) checked and it doesn't show up there either
<Sandig> yes it is enabled in that file
<bluekuja> Sandig, do
<bluekuja> apt-cache search transmission
<bluekuja> I get transmission - free, lightweight BitTorrent client
<bluekuja> transmission-cli - free, lightweight BitTorrent client
<bluekuja> transmission-gtk - graphical user interface for transmission
<Sandig> nothing
<Sandig> well
<bluekuja> impossible :)
<bluekuja> Sandig, then you don't have universe on
<Sandig> i do!
<bluekuja> Sandig, apt-get install verlihub
<bluekuja> for instance
<bluekuja> what do you get?
<Sandig> http://www.sandig.co.uk/uploads/transmission.JPG
<Sandig> it can't find that either
<bluekuja> Sandig, pastebin your sources.list
<Sandig> gah
<Sandig> i have to go
<Sandig> i'll be back in a few hours, probably
<bluekuja> ok, fin
<bluekuja> e
<Sandig> thanks for your help so far
<bluekuja> np, let me know when back
<Sandig> okay
<Sandig> cheers
<night> hey i'm trying to get the latest version of transmission 0.91 but when using synaptics the latest i get is 0.72, any ideas
<bluekuja> night, this question got asked some days ago as well
<bluekuja> night, which version does Debian have?
<night> i don't know, do you mean what version do their repos have
<bluekuja> yes
<bluekuja> actually gutsy have
<bluekuja> transmission | 0.72.dfsg-1 | http://it.archive.ubuntu.com gutsy/universe Packages
<bluekuja> transmission | 0.72.dfsg-1 | http://it.archive.ubuntu.com gutsy/universe Sources
<night> to be honest i'm new at this game, how do i find the address of the debian repos to add them and is there a secific one i should add
<bluekuja> night, Package: transmission (0.91.dfsg-1)
<bluekuja> debian got 0.91
<night> cool how do i add this bad boy repo
<bluekuja> night, we should ask for a sync
<bluekuja> I need to check if there are Ubuntu remaining changes
<bluekuja> if not
<night> what do you mean
<bluekuja> I mean syncing that package from debian
<bluekuja> to have it on ubuntu
<night> nice
<night> linux is the beast of an OS i always hoped it would be
<bluekuja> night, why?
<night> cause its legend you can ask for stuff to be added,
<night> legend
<night> how do we ask,
<bluekuja> night, new transmission
<bluekuja> has been already synced
<bluekuja> into hardy
<bluekuja> you should ask for a backport then
<bluekuja> :)
<bluekuja> (if that's possible)
<night> whats hardy
<bluekuja> new Ubuntu release
<bluekuja> :)
<night> thought it was gutsyi thiught it was gutsy
<bluekuja> development
<bluekuja> circle is hardy
<bluekuja> but current release is hardy
<night> oh
<jdong> bluekuja: ok, let me look into tranny backport
<bluekuja> jdong, was going to ping you for it in a bit
<bluekuja> :)
<bluekuja> jdong, some ppl asked for latest tranny version
<jdong> hardy has 0.90
<jdong> let me see if that backports
<bluekuja> yep
<jdong> bluekuja: works
<bluekuja> jdong, simply great
<bluekuja> :)
<bluekuja> jdong, want me to open a request or willing to do that on your own?
<jdong> bluekuja: I'll do that
<bluekuja> jdong, you rock
<bluekuja> ;)
<jdong> DIST=feisty prevu lp:transmission
<jdong> oops wrong screen
<bluekuja> hehe
 * jdong hacked prevu to support lp:pkgname/distro syntax
<bluekuja> oh really??
<jdong> it goes to LP and scrapes for .dsc url's :D
<jdong> lol
<bluekuja> :D
<bluekuja> is it in the hardy version?
<jdong> nope, not yet
<jdong> it's a bit too hackish to see the light of day yet
<bluekuja> lol
<bluekuja> fine ^^
<jdong> the LP scraper is written in Ruby, and prevu itself is in python
<bluekuja> when you have a more stable version
<bluekuja> would be nice to test it out
<jdong> yeah totally
<jdong> I'm gonna rewrite the scraper in Python
<jdong> and then we're good to go
<jdong> I've got a prevu upload in preparation
<bluekuja> cool, let me know when needed
<jdong> transmissions backports to feisty too
<bluekuja> btw I'm reading a new python book atm
<bluekuja> it's huge
<bluekuja> great, we can have it backported for feisty as well then
<bluekuja> fine
<bluekuja> going to read
<bluekuja> cu all tomorrow
<bluekuja> g'night
<bluekuja> :)
<night> hello again
<sandig> hey
<sandig> so basically i'm trying to install transmission
<bluekuja> night, tranny will be synced soon
<bluekuja> ;)
<bluekuja> heya sandig
<sandig> hey
<night> oh legend
<night> like days or hurs
<bluekuja> night, lol
<night> hours
<bluekuja> :D
<sandig> trying to install transmission - apt-get says it doesn't exist
<sandig> universe *is* enabled
<bluekuja> sandig, can you please
<bluekuja> pastebin
<bluekuja> your sources.list
<bluekuja> ?
<night> bluekuja: why you laugh at my ignorance,
<bluekuja> night, :)
<night> hahaha
<sandig> http://pastebin.com/m18d3f93f
<bluekuja> sandig, you are still on feisty??
<night> bluekuja: seriously thought can i expect that new vresion tommorow or what
<bluekuja> night, depends from archive-admins
<night> sweet,
<sandig> bluekuja, yeah.. but should that matter?
<bluekuja> night, UDS is running
<bluekuja> sandig, actually
<bluekuja> feisty doesnt have transmission
<night> bluekuja: ? UDS ?
<bluekuja> at all
<bluekuja> sandig, jdong is backporting it to feisty as well
<bluekuja> so you'll have to add backports
<sandig> or update to gutsy?
<bluekuja> to your sources.list or via synaptic
<bluekuja> well, that's your choice
<bluekuja> night, Ubuntu Developer Summit
<sandig> alright
<sandig> i'll do that then
<night> ahhhhhhhhhhhhh
<bluekuja> sandig, if you upgrade to gutsy
<night> bluekuja: linux plus irc equals problem free motoring
<bluekuja> you'll have 0.72
<sandig> oh.. why is that?
<bluekuja> sandig, jdong is backporting it to gutsy so you can get 0.91
<bluekuja> or whatever it is now
<bluekuja> night, well, asking for a new release and having it done some days alter
<bluekuja> *later
<bluekuja> is something nice
<bluekuja> isnt it?
<sandig> well... i'm probably gonna upgrade anyway - i didn't realise this system was still running feisty
<night> yeah
<bluekuja> sandig, great :)
<bluekuja> sandig, let me know if you encounter any other problem
<sandig> thanks very much
<bluekuja> np :)
<sandig> i'm just trying to get torrentflux working
<bluekuja> ^^
<sandig> transmission is the last thing it needs
<bluekuja> yep

#ubuntu-motu-torrent 2007-11-03
<jdong> bluekuja: ok, working on applying the patches doko insists on...
<jdong> oh for christ's sakes
<jdong> the patches have UNIX line endings, upstream tarball has dos line endings
<jdong> bluekuja: ok you know what? I give up on patching this. Different line endings, different indentation levels....
<jdong> if doko insists on applying the patches as he said, he can feel free to.
#ubuntu-motu-torrent 2007-11-05
<jdong> bluekuja: had to do yet another fix on Azureus (.desktop file); still on track and waiting for archive to do backport
<bluekuja> jdong, seen it on -changes
<bluekuja> :)
<jdong> bluekuja: ah, you silly people subscribed to changes :)
<bluekuja> lol
<bluekuja> :)

<bluekuja> heya jdong
<jdong>  yo yo yo :)
<bluekuja> :)
<bluekuja> do you have debian unstable around?
<jdong> sorted out the memory usage guy's bug, all quiet on my front.
<jdong> bluekuja: nope
<bluekuja> aww
<bluekuja> can you please install diff-ext
<bluekuja> and check if nautilus crashes?
<bluekuja> (get it from debian then)
<bluekuja> it will install fine in gutsy
<jdong> bluekuja: not on a Linux box currently...
<bluekuja> oh ok :)
<bluekuja> np then
<bluekuja> javamaniac, around?
<javamaniac> bluekuja, yes
<bluekuja> javamaniac, heya mate :)
<bluekuja> javamaniac, would you be so kind to install diff-ext on debian
<javamaniac> bluekuja, heya!
<bluekuja> and check whether it crashes or not?
<javamaniac> ok, let me test it
<bluekuja> you rock, thanks :)
<bluekuja> damn
<bluekuja> it crashes here
<javamaniac> diff-ext-setup runs here
<bluekuja> javamaniac, you should restart the machine
<bluekuja> and check after a restart
<bluekuja> actually was working for me
<javamaniac> oh, ok, looks like a complicated bug xD
<bluekuja> *before* the restart
<javamaniac> i'll restart
<bluekuja> ty
<bluekuja> javamaniac, crashes right?
<bluekuja> right click on a file
<javamaniac> bluekuja, it still works
<bluekuja> also if you right click on a file?
<javamaniac> oh
<javamaniac> it crashes
<bluekuja> darn
<bluekuja> upstream marked it as fixed
<javamaniac> both
<bluekuja> and here it is again
<javamaniac> :(
<bluekuja> -.-
<bluekuja> let's write a mail
<bluekuja> javamaniac, thanks for testing i

<bluekuja> this one seems to work fine
#ubuntu-motu-torrent 2007-11-19
<jdong> bluekuja: hey I noticed transmission 0.93 has a bugfix for a serious issue I've heard reported several times, regarding knocking out router connectivity
<jdong> bluekuja: debian is still like 2 versions behind and no activty for 2 weeks; I'm thinking about stepping ahead of them and directly packaging tranny 0.93
<bluekuja> jdong, yes, you can start working on it
<bluekuja> and maybe ping debian
<bluekuja> open a bug
<bluekuja> whatever
<bluekuja> now you have a good reason to do it
<jdong> bluekuja: bug open already regarding 0.92 for 14 days ;-)
<bluekuja> e.g serious issue
<bluekuja> :)
<jdong> figure it's redundant to poke them again
<bluekuja> yeo
<bluekuja> *yep
<bluekuja> prepare an NMU then
<bluekuja> and get it sponsored inside delayed
<bluekuja> for 7 days
<bluekuja> (should be enough)
<jdong> bluekuja: hmm nmu's are an unfamiliarity to me....
<jdong> bluekuja: shall I just give you a prepared source pkg after I'm done and you deal with the Debian side? ;-)
<bluekuja> jdong, yes. Also I think an NMU can be done by an already DD
<bluekuja> I read that somewhere in the docs
<bluekuja> yesterday
<bluekuja> but I'm not *really* sure about that
<jdong> bluekuja: are you familiar with what the debian package's dfsg repacking consists of?
<bluekuja> jdong, yes
<bluekuja> I'm doing the P&P test
<bluekuja> atm
<bluekuja> so I'm answering to the DFSG and some other policy docs
<bluekuja> about that
<bluekuja> ^^
<jdong> ok, was just wondering what I need to mangle from upstream's orig.tar.gz to make Debian happy
<bluekuja> did upstream add some new files?
<bluekuja> please do the package
<bluekuja> make a dedbdiff
<bluekuja> *debdiff
<bluekuja> and then decide
<bluekuja> what has been added/removed
<bluekuja> and then ping me if some new files (non-free, bad licenses) are there
<bluekuja> so we can analyze the problem
<jdong> bluekuja: oh duh I'm an idiot, there's a watchfile , and rules already details what they removed
<jdong> the beos/macos parts are license-ambiguous
<bluekuja> fine then
<bluekuja> you know what needs to be removed
<bluekuja> :)
<jdong> :)
<bluekuja> ;)
<jdong> bluekuja: and ther'es even a README.debian-source file that states in plain english what is removed. sheesh I feel foolish now ;-)
<bluekuja> lol
<bluekuja> fortunately you found that
<bluekuja> better late than never
<bluekuja> :)
<jdong> bluekuja: dget http://jdong.mit.edu/~jdong/motu/transmission_0.93.dfsg-1.dsc
<bluekuja> lol
<bluekuja> you did a package in two seconds?
<bluekuja> a magician?
<jdong> bluekuja: please ignore that last message for 5 minutes ;-)
<jdong> bluekuja: one of the dpatches isn't clean :)
<jdong> lol I gave you the link and started buildtesting at the same time
<bluekuja> lol
<jdong> bluekuja: ok, and this time, I'm gonna sit through the build before I embarrass myself :P
<bluekuja> :D
<jdong> bluekuja: ok *now* dget that URL
<jdong> build tested in a gutsy pbuilder
<jdong> don't have a sid one handy, so exercise to the sponsor ;-)
<bluekuja> ^^
<bluekuja> do you want to pull this on Debian or Ubuntu?
<jdong> bluekuja: currently it's versioned for Debian, I'm fine with either way
<jdong> bluekuja: if we do debian, what do you think the turnaround time would be?
<jdong> bluekuja: i.e. I released out a backport of 0.91 to gutsy, remember, that suffers from this router-knockout bug
<jdong> :(
<bluekuja> jdong, if we want it inside debian you have to build it using unstable (first)
<bluekuja> second
<bluekuja> waiting 14 days it's not too much
<jdong> bluekuja: do you have an unstable pbuilder handy?
<bluekuja> for asking an NMU
<bluekuja> of course
<bluekuja> :)
<jdong> yeah 14 days is fine
<jdong> if you wanna prepare it as an NMU or however is appropriate, please :)
<jdong> I'm starving, so I'm gonna go make dinner :)
<bluekuja> ok, I finish my answers
<bluekuja> in the meantime
#ubuntu-motu-torrent 2007-11-20
<jdong> bluekuja: I mailed the Debian maintainer of Transmission a second ago, so hopefully that's the right path to go down :)
#ubuntu-motu-torrent 2007-11-21
<jdong> bluekuja: I got e-mail back from transmission maintainer in Debian, he already has the package ready just waiting until gtk transition in unstable settles before uploading
<jdong> apparently it'd FTBFS if he did so now
#ubuntu-motu-torrent 2007-11-26
<charles_> Transmission 0.94 released! http://download.m0k.org/transmission/files/transmission-0.94.tar.bz2
<bluekuja> javamaniac, around?
<jdong> charles_: thanks for the announcement; I'm still awaiting Debian on uploading transmission but if they take more than the end of this week I'll directly step in front of them and package it up.
<charles_> feedback on 0.94's been pretty good so far
#ubuntu-motu-torrent 2007-11-27
<jdong> whoo transmission 0.93 hit hardy
<bluekuja> jdong, no responses from debian?
<jdong> bluekuja: no, Debian did it :)
<jdong> bluekuja: now we wait for 0.94 :)
<bluekuja> jdong, ah so, it got synced :)
<jdong> I approved a backport for 0.93 too :)
<bluekuja> great :)
<bluekuja> jdong, I don't see any upload on -changes
<bluekuja> about tranny

<bluekuja> lol
<bluekuja> you missed it for 4 days
<jdong> lol that's like a year in crazy impatient backports time ;-)
<bluekuja> :D
<bluekuja> jdong, from the backlog of yesterday:
<bluekuja> <jdong> charles_: thanks for the announcement; I'm still awaiting Debian on uploading transmission but if they take more than the end of this week I'll directly step in front of them and package it up.
<bluekuja> :D

<bluekuja> ehehehe :D
<jdong> I checked p.d.o yesterday
<jdong> guess that's my mistake

<moriba> HIGH SPEED TORRENT 2.0? is there anything for ubuntu/linux?
<jdong> what the hell is high speed torrent?
<jdong> oh it's a scam
<jdong> a paypal scam, coupled with a modified bitlord that exploits peers
#ubuntu-motu-torrent 2007-11-29
<bluekuja> jdong, lol
<jdong> torrentfreak just did an article about it too
<jdong> it's BitLord plus tips like limit your upload speed
<jdong> wow I feel sorry for anyone who spent $17USD on such obvious advice :D
<bluekuja> :D
<bluekuja> jdong, I loved your question:
