[10:53] < _NULL_> hi esden
[10:54] < netrunner> esden: happy ds2 learning here, wanna join? *g*
[10:55] < esden> netrunner: no thanks ... I can not in the moment
[10:55] < esden> rofl ... /me is dying from reading the RLML
[10:56] < esden> ahh _NULL_ good that you are here ... could you please verify your complains the next time you flame the mailinglist?
[10:57] < esden> I would be very happy if you could fix the centericq problem ... I would very appreciate it
[10:58] < _NULL_> esden: nope. i can't. but you can overtake the packages of my repository... because i won't "kruemmen einen finger" for rock anymore
[10:58] < esden> _NULL_: centericq is not in your repository ... OFYI
[10:59] < _NULL_> esden: i know. but i won't maintain the packages of my repos, too, now - so, please overtake it or someone else
[11:03] < esden> I do not want your packets ... but you can ask rxr to move them to orphaned
[11:03] < esden> but still ... if you in the future complain about something make sure you know what you are saying ... the mails you wrote on the list really rescued my day because they were so funny ;)
[11:04] < _NULL_> why funny?
[11:04] < _NULL_> btw, it seems to be a problem with "term"

[11:16] < esden> re 0
[11:17] < esden> _NULL_: sure it is a problem with the terminal ... centericq is too stupid to manage it in a correct way ;)
[11:17]   netrunner starts a new build
[11:17] < netrunner> what is the problem with centericq? it works quite fine here ...
[11:18] < _NULL_> esden: aha... and on aszlig.net and on my LFS-system i once had, there was only luck, that it ran, or what?
[11:18] < esden> ack
[11:18] < esden> it is working with some terminals with others not
[11:18] < esden> it depends
[11:18] < _NULL_> O_o on _what_?
[11:18] < esden> with aterm it is not working
[11:18] < esden> on eterm it is working flowlessly
[11:19] < esden> on xterm it fsck's again ...
[11:19]   netrunner uses xterm
[11:19] < esden> netrunner: but you do not use centericq?
[11:19] < netrunner> esden: sometimes, in a screen over ssh ...
[11:19] < _NULL_> esden: and with ssh --> screen?
[11:20] < esden> netrunner: and it works without problems?
[11:21] < netrunner> esden: yes ... only thing is when you reconnect to the server with a resized terminal screen sometimes doesn't see that and does not tell the applications inside, so they mess up ... but you can force a refresh with C-a l
[11:21]   netrunner loading gui mailclient to view the screen screenshot
[11:22] < netrunner> oh ... never seen problems like that.
[11:22] < esden> netrunner: hmm ... that is strange ... because I have the problems in xterm on my laptop ...
[11:22] < netrunner> maybe putty related?
[11:23] < esden> I will have to dig deeper in it in the future
[11:23] < esden> ok I am once more off for shopping ;)
[11:23] < esden> cu l8er
[11:23] < netrunner> esden: maybe it is because while I built centericq using the rock tools it runs in a rh system ...
[11:23] < _NULL_> bye esden

[15:58] < netrunner> hi daja77 :)
[15:58] < netrunner> anyone also experienced linux24 not building because of tvmixer.o?
[15:59]   daja77 still doin rc1 stuff, not tested new things
[16:00] < netrunner> i did a svn up before starting that build ... and apparently linux-2.4.22 does not build (and I did not manage to put the correct entry into disable-broken.lst)
[16:01] < daja77> it sucks that we need that list ...
[16:02] < rxr> daja77: we could lust perform this - but I think it is saver to take final human look before to wipe them out ...
[16:03] < daja77> sorry, didn't got your statement
[16:04] < netrunner> rxr: to disable tvmixer I put the line "CONFIG_TVMIXER          2003-08-27      2.4.22 tvmixer.o" into disable-broken.lst?
[16:05] < jsaw> I need tvmixer for my bttv card...
[16:05] < netrunner> jsaw: I would, too. but I would also like to have the package linux24 built :)
[16:07] < daja77> can't you fix it?
[16:07] < jsaw> lemma try, but, IIRC, bttv and new i2c don't like each other, even if I change the offending lines...
[16:08] < daja77> hmm another 2.4 crap release ...

[22:11] < jsaw> rxr: my "Maintain" script improved also a lot today...
[22:11] < jsaw> hehe

[22:12] < jsaw> daja77: I never had such few problems since using cups
[22:12] < rxr> yes - but cups has somgs odd bugs - and so a flyspray entry
[22:12] < daja77> well the problem isn't cups but that ghostscript takes ages to compile on that box
[22:13] < rxr> I really take a day to improve it ...
[22:13] < rxr> daja77: ssh ; compile ; exit ; scp ...

[22:15]   daja77 really looking forward for the rocket tool
[22:16] < daja77> but hey now i know the gentoo hell ;-)

[22:23] < tcr> daja77: What should I add to that? That's just one of the deficiencies when using a database :)
[22:24] < daja77> well better nothing i guess *ggg*
[22:25] < tcr> :P, there's nothing to add, you're right
[22:26] < daja77> there are worse things in life than this
[22:27] < tcr> For software, not really
[22:28] < daja77> keeping old structures over decades can suck more, ask ibm
[22:28] < tcr> Yeah, or intel ;)
[22:29] < daja77> hehe
[22:29] < tcr> backward comptability just for the sake of proprietary software _really_ sucks
[22:29] < tcr> Wouldn't it be damn nice and cute in a FS only world?
[22:30] < daja77> you see ;-)
[22:31] < tcr> But backward incompatibility because of weak design is another thing ;)
[22:31] < tcr> Btw. I just noticed a very small bug in the build scripts
[22:31]   tcr seems to be quite peaky about those; he finds those quite often (mayb because he does rather odd things ;))
[22:32] < daja77> cos you are doomed
[22:32] < tcr> No, just stupid ;)

[22:43] < cchamilt> I am thinking right now just a script that reads the .cpan version of a package and makes an update package/$rep/perl-$pkg
[22:43] < cchamilt> Does it keep versions up to date?
[22:43]   daja77 frightened by the idea of thousands a perl gems
[22:43] < cchamilt> rock already does perl Makefile.PL
[22:43] < daja77> s/a/of
[22:44] < cchamilt> Yeah, it is needed for a working spamassassin.
[22:44] < jsaw> ah, ok. I c what u mean
[22:44] < cchamilt> cpan already does version selection
[22:44] < cchamilt> so if I just make a script that will generate updates from it, then I can be lazy and make tons of perl packages
[22:45]   daja77 votes that spammers should have their trial in .sg
[22:45] < tcr> That definitively needs some thinking.
[22:45] < tcr> Later, I'm now hunting a small bug
[22:45] < cchamilt> OK, well I will poke along seeing if the idea is possible
[22:46] < daja77> what about a cpan package?
[22:46] < cchamilt> One thing rock needs that .spec has - $ver in the download url
[22:46] < jsaw> cchamilt: maybe an extra tag to [V], eg. "[V] current"? for those pacakges acquiring the version like cpan?
[22:46] < cchamilt> I will need a cpan package, but cpan comes with perl5 already
[22:47] < cchamilt> jsaw: yes, that would be sweet if we could figure it out.
[22:47] < daja77> i thought something like a container package
[22:48] < daja77> where you can selecting in Config which modules you wanna have
[22:48] < daja77> oh no forget it, too much
[22:48] < cchamilt> daja77:oh, like make a ton of perl packages using cpan inside target?
[22:48] -!- Ge0rG [georg@club-mate.net] has joined #rocklinux
[22:48] < cchamilt> I thought about it, but it would break some assumptions on rock.
[22:49] < cchamilt> Like download and build cycle separation.
[22:49] < cchamilt> cpan does it all together.
[22:49] < jsaw> cchamilt: well, one objection, I prefer a common version base
[22:49] < cchamilt> jsaw:?
[22:50] < cchamilt> common version base?
[22:50] < jsaw> I mean, I'd prefer to have a package version explicitly associated with a rock distro version..
[22:50] < cchamilt> Oh, hmm
[22:51] < cchamilt> cpan and perl dont work that way though.
[22:51] < cchamilt> If you have problems in perl, thye just say have you updated the package?
[22:51] < cchamilt> bleeding edge=most stable and secure usually
[22:52] < cchamilt> kind of like us
[22:52] < cchamilt> cpan does a thing where it will update all installed packages to the latest version with one command
[22:52] < cchamilt> php's pear does this too
[22:54] < cchamilt> authors aren't supposed to post less stable version on to cpan.
[22:54] < cchamilt> betas and alphas of new versions are not stored on cpan (unless that is the best version in the authors mind)
[22:56] < cchamilt> Hmm, looking at cpan - autobundle...
[22:56] < cchamilt> autobundle creates a master set of your currently installed packages.
[22:57] < cchamilt> Might work for specific targets, but ugh.
[22:58] < jsaw> hmmm...
[22:58] < cchamilt> It generates a simple data file that is just 'package version' pairs
[22:59] < cchamilt> You run it in cpan and it will then install that exact set.
[22:59] < jsaw> but how do you create packages of it?
[22:59] < cchamilt> Might work post system install.  It would not put them on the iso.
[23:00] < cchamilt> Yeah, need them on iso.
[23:00] < jsaw> that would require a special multi-pass package, with an overwritten parse_config..
[23:01] < cchamilt> Damn, still back to where I was thinking.
[23:02] < SMP> CPAN _can_ separate download and build
[23:02] < cchamilt> The best idea may be generating rock packages from something like that.
[23:03] < cchamilt> smp: Well it makes a cache of files right?
[23:03] < SMP> so to say
[23:03] < cchamilt> smp: How would we do that - cpan:// uris?
[23:03] < cchamilt> and then store them somewhere?
[23:04] < cchamilt> cpan needs configured on the localhost, and in the chroot if we use it as installer.
[23:04] < SMP> I don't know - what were you discussing?
[23:05] < cchamilt> How to make a cpan->rock interface that makes packages for rock automatically.
[23:05] < SMP> why would that need a specia url scheme?
[23:06] < tcr> rxr: ping
[23:07] < cchamilt> The goal is to limit the amount of maintenance per package.
[23:07] < cchamilt> If we used cpan directly in rock, we would need to pass the package names to cpan to resolve them somehow.
[23:08] < cchamilt> Anyway, I don't think that is a solution
[23:08] < cchamilt> What I was originally thinking was just make some script that butchers cpans current list of packages/versions and generates rock packages from that.
[23:09] < cchamilt> It may be limited on description, but it can easily keep the versions up to date.
[23:10] < tcr> Darn, sometimes I really think that it'd be a great benefits for ROCK if there were exceptions in shell
[23:10] < rxr> re
[23:10] < rxr> pon tcr
[23:10] < cchamilt> Heck,maybe even just a script that alters or creates a patch for the new url and version
[23:11] < tcr> rxr: I decided not to disturb you but to wait until tomorrow to test my question out (which I think is better)
[23:11]   tcr reading backlog
[23:11] < cchamilt> Back in the day, one of my biggest problems updating my rock packages was incrementing perl modules.
[23:12] < cchamilt> ugh, headache brb
[23:13] < SMP> I think this should probably implemented on the same layer as the current package system  - not on top of it
[23:13] < daja77> weee, printer config took me 3 min, after 3h compile orgy
[23:13]   daja77 now goin home, cu
[23:13] < SMP> heck. CPAN even has its own flist method
[23:13] < jsaw> daja77: c?
[23:13] < cchamilt> cu daja
[23:13] < jsaw> that's why I love it.
[23:14] < jsaw> cu daja77
[23:14] < daja77> jsaw: hm?
[23:14] < jsaw> (cups is easy to admin imo)
[23:14] < daja77> yeah but getting apps to print still sucks
[23:14] < daja77> anyway, l8er
[23:14] < cchamilt> So, we make a cpan url? Or do we make a special package type?
[23:15] < SMP> the latter, I'd say
[23:15] < cchamilt> hmm
[23:15] < cchamilt> package/perl package/php package/python ?
[23:16] < SMP> more like package-rock/ package-cpan/
[23:16] < SMP> . o O ( package-rpm/ package-deb/ )
[23:16] < cchamilt> don't know if the auditors would buy that..
[23:17] < cchamilt> I think that would be cool
[23:17] < jsaw> special/{cpan,...}
[23:17] < rxr> could we discuss such intrusive term on the mailing list, please?
[23:18] < SMP> jsaw: not special - all packages should be equal! :)
[23:18] < cchamilt> heh, nah lets make a decision here where we can easily have a consensus :)
[23:18] < jsaw> cpan packages ARE NOT EQUAL, that's what cchamilt tried to explain.
[23:18] < tcr> rxr: No and yes. It's way easier to discuss a first draft here, but that one should be sent to the ml
[23:19] < tcr> jsaw: I missed that, why so?
[23:19] < cchamilt> Seriously, I do fear the silence of the maillist for this.
[23:19] < jsaw> tcr: because cpan fetches not a specific version, but the newest
[23:19] -!- n00kie [~n00kie@M261P024.adsl.highway.telekom.at] has joined #rocklinux
[23:19] < cchamilt> It can version, I just dont think it would be wise.
[23:20] < cchamilt> pear for php can specify stability I think, if not version too.
[23:20] < cchamilt> I think ideally, we should support both a 'current' type and a versioned.
[23:21] < tcr> jsaw: That's no a very big problem insofar because I have "support multiple versions of one package" on my .plan which address this problem
[23:21] < SMP> ugh
[23:21] < tcr>     * Possibility of several package versions at once, see also:

[23:21] < jsaw> hey, cchamilt, here comes tcr with a solution...
[23:21] < SMP> stupid idea of the day ;)
[23:21] < jsaw> maybe
[23:21] < cchamilt> oh I like his stuff :)
[23:22] < jsaw> SMP: bdb?
[23:22] < cchamilt> tcr:pjotr and i wanted that stuff a long time ago, rock will eventually evolve when it is ready.
[23:22] < SMP> there's nothing seriously wrong with how we do it at the moment
[23:23] < cchamilt> we do need to balance various complications versus end-result for any build system changes.
[23:23] < tcr> SMP: It leaves more power to the user (of rocklinux and the distribution build kit)
[23:23] < jsaw> SMP: if wouldn't have written "seriously" I may accept "stupid idea of the day"...
[23:24] < rxr> jsaw: ?
[23:25] < cchamilt> the big problem with versioning anything is testing.  cpan is kind of an exception as 99% of it supposed to be the most recent.
[23:25] < jsaw> rxr: inserting "seriously" into the sentence means, actually there is sth. wrong, but we can live with it...
[23:25] < cchamilt> however, linux distro as current everything causes problems - mostly due to non-current standardized distros the authors use.
[23:26] < tcr> Actually I can imagine the case of giving a user the possibility to determine any arbitrary version of a package
[23:26] < tcr> it's not that hard actually, we'd just use arch as a package management tool ;)
[23:26] < jsaw> (but, I also think that having bdb{33,40,41} is easier to manage the bdb with multiple versions)
[23:26] < cchamilt> it is the fate of any project like use, where we cant actually see all the code updates individually being updated and monitor them.
[23:28] < tcr> cchamilt: ( mostly due to non-current standardized distros the authors use.:) can you explain that?
[23:28] < cchamilt> I a definitely for making a version update easier, or external to the package files.
[23:28] < jsaw> cchamilt: time for email to ml, don't u think so?
[23:28] < cchamilt> :)
[23:29] < cchamilt> It is the versionitus rock gets when someone sends rene about 30 package version bumps.
[23:29] < cchamilt> And then nothing builds right for a week.
[23:30] < cchamilt> Individually, those version updates are harmless, but together they break the build.
[23:30] < cchamilt> If we support arbitrary upgrade/downgrade of a package or set of packages this will likely happen often to users.
[23:30] < tcr> I think a mail about that is too precocious(sp?).. cchamilt: better would be to fill a feature request in flyspray, so that the discussion is moved to a later point of time (the time of 2.1)
[23:32] < cchamilt> It was what I was saying earlier, we are not bsd with a single cvs that everything commits to, we just pull tarballs together and hope.
[23:32] < cchamilt> I will try and use flyspray, I think it is too complicated for me.
[23:33] < tcr> cchamilt: (pull tarballs together and hope:) Yes, but this can get better with a better integration and expandation of the regression tester
[23:34] < tcr> cchamilt: (arbitrary upgrade/downgrade will likely break builds:) Keep in mind that this possibility (of arbitrary versions) is primarely intended for DBK users
[23:35] < cchamilt> OK, what am I flyspraying?
[23:36] < cchamilt> better cpan integraton?
[23:37] < rxr> I think you should not only put it in flysrpay - but also mail the list for a ongoing discussion ...
[23:38] < tcr> rxr: Well, I think clifford will start a broad discussion about future of rock, and will use flyspray items as a means of help. So it's really just a deferation(?) of the discussion :)
[23:38] < cchamilt> OK, I will give you guys a flyspray draft to approve in a moment.
[23:39] < tcr> cchamilt: You can send that draft to the list (ok with you rxr?)
[23:43] < jsaw> bbl
[23:44] < tcr> me too
[23:47] -!- martin [~martin@pD9E7B090.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #rocklinux
[23:48] < cchamilt> OK, I think I am tired and getting snide.
[23:49] < cchamilt> Will you guys look at it here before I make myself a jerk on the list...
[23:49] < martin> Hello
[23:50] < rxr> hi martin
[23:50] < cchamilt> It has been suggested that maintainance of packages that include perl modules may become cumbersome (tons of packages, lots of version updates).  cpan however makes download/installing version specific and the latest releases or perl modules easily.
[23:50] < rxr> martin: read my mail I just sent to you ?
[23:50] < cchamilt> It has been proposed that rock integrate cpan, pear, and other similar systems into its scripts to present a more complete and simpler way of
[23:50] < cchamilt> maintaining these types of packages.
[23:50] < cchamilt> It has further been proposed that while these specific packaging systems are being integrated, that it might be possible form a general interface and structure to supporting any other packaging system - ie. rpm and deb.
[23:50] < cchamilt> This system may also require mechanisms for arbitrary versioning of packages for rock in general.  This idea has been discussed and shot down many times mostly due to complications of fitting it into the current package tree structure (ownerships), added amount of maintenance, and the addition of possibly untested configurations (something rock already has thanks to Config :) ).
[23:51] < rxr> tcr: I even said put it in flyspary - but also to the list ...
[23:51] < cchamilt> rxr:If you guys dont think it will start flames, I will.
[23:52] < rxr> cchamilt: ?
[23:52] < cchamilt> rxr: yes?
[23:52] < rxr> 23:51 < cchamilt> rxr:If you guys dont think it will start flames, I will.
[23:52] < rxr> ?
[23:53] < cchamilt> I was being snide in it.
[23:53] < daja77> re
[23:54]   daja77 don't like the flames on ml
[23:54] < cchamilt> If you guys think my ?temperment? is still ok in the writing, then I will submit. Otherwise suggest where I should clean it up.
[23:54] < martin> rxr: Yes. But I come home 5 minutes ago. And I'll sleeping so deep. Write it tomorrow
[23:55] < daja77> wow 68 new mails on list today
[23:56] < cchamilt> Is it even what we want to have discussed?
[23:56] < cchamilt> Am I missing any points?
[23:56] < SMP> cchamilt: I'd kill the last paragraph (multiple versions)
[23:57] < SMP> cchamilt: and I
[23:57] < SMP> gah
[23:57] < cchamilt> Yeah, it is definitely another subject.
[23:57] < cchamilt> Well, the second paragraph is what you want, the third tcr. :)
[23:58] < SMP> and I'd like to see some words about how CPAN e.g. is different (uü to having its own flist 'wrapper') and cannot easily be satisfied with the current system.
[23:58] < cchamilt> Sorry smp, your the third paragraph, tcr fourth. The first and second are all I started with.
[23:59] < cchamilt> How about three flysprays and one maillist discussion?
