00:00.10TSCHAKeeehe's already got an N9?
00:00.23TSCHAKeeeI mean, I know he's at the top of every list, but... ;)
00:00.42DocScrutinizerif Nokia went really nasty and all the way to dark side, they have locked down access to modem by crypto
00:00.51MohammadAGyes, it will
00:01.04MohammadAGquestion is, will it be possible to use commercial shit on that
00:01.14DocScrutinizerdefinitely not
00:01.44DocScrutinizerand it's not even clear you could reflash with another OS. Nokia can change xloader/NOLO any time
00:02.18DocScrutinizerTSCHAKeee: I meant Stskeeps tries to flash meegoCE to N950 right atm
00:02.30TSCHAKeeedocScrutinizer: oh, yeah. I know. :)
00:04.35DocScrutinizerMohammadAG: so if N9 has a different rootcert than N950, and there are no publicly available NOLO versions that allow to boot an unsigned kernel, the jury is still out on N9 with alien OS
00:07.35DocScrutinizerTSCHAKeee: (I mean, I know he's at the top of every list) I'm not sure about that. Seems to me Nokia's support for meego-arm team significantly decayed recently

01:20.41npmfyi, regarding whatever conversation from earlier.. GRP::pulse-access seems to make video playback w/o  pausing
01:21.03npmalongside GRP::video
01:21.08npmnow off to dinner
01:23.26rm_younpm: wait what?!
01:26.58rm_youwait why does mplayer depend on gtk and hildon libs
01:27.02npmmust test more but videos that were all pausy before when full screen all refreshy (big buck bunny 480) now playback smooth
01:27.10rm_youi thought it opened straight to the FB
01:27.25rm_younpm: so what did you change? i want to try
01:27.43npmGRP::pulse-access
01:29.09npmhttp://nielsmayer.com/meego/qml/qmltube_1_0_6_armel.deb
01:29.34npmit  had to remove code to prevent display from going to sleep but it works like this sortof
01:30.21npmback later ... dinner
01:32.43rm_younpm: yeah i have that :P thought you meant a change to the default media player setup or something
01:55.22antman8969anyone know of an ifdef for harmattan?
01:55.55antman8969found contains(MEEGO_EDITION,harmattan): for the pro file, but it doesn't seem to be owrking...
02:30.56GeneralAntillesThe lack of rounding on the N950 keys is frustrating.
02:31.02GeneralAntillesFeels more squishy than the N900 keyboard, too.
02:31.02rm_youyes
02:36.58TSCHAKeeedoesn't bother me
02:37.07TSCHAKeeeis actually deliberately not using the keyboard
02:42.13antman8969barely use it, the onscreen is pretty good imo
02:42.41TSCHAKeeeit's one of the better ones
02:42.54DocScrutinizerGeneralAntilles: yup
02:45.13DocScrutinizeractually somewhat reminds me of the eten Glofiish M800 kbd, no doubt this been the worst handheld kbd I ever had to put my fingertips on
02:47.09DocScrutinizerand the non-sticky Fn-key frequently makes me typo all the "blue" symbols
02:47.29antman8969i actually hate the fn / ctrl keys
02:47.53antman8969I typed my password in plain text last week here because my / was turned into a @
02:47.57antman8969had to go an change them all....
02:59.19rm_youthe vkbd is gross >_>
02:59.23rm_youthe keyboard is better but
02:59.25rm_you:/
03:20.24GAN900It's not too terrible.
03:20.29GAN900But not great
03:21.00GAN900I wont ever touch-type 60 wpm while looking at something else like I can on my N900.
03:23.50DocScrutinizerindeed
03:24.34DocScrutinizerk, time for brinner

03:50.31antman8969has anyone been able to build for harmattan on OBS?
03:51.05antman8969the repo doesn't seem to show up after being selected
03:51.47rm_youi need to figure out how to build packages again, haven't done this in a while
03:51.54rm_youi'm missing about a billion dependencies
03:52.05rm_youthis is a nightmare...
03:52.31rm_youdpkg-buildpackage -> you're missing these deps -> apt-get source depnames -> dpkg-buildpackage -> you
03:52.35rm_you*you're missing more deps
03:52.41rm_yourinse and repeat about 20 times
03:52.46rm_youi'm giving up for now
03:52.57antman8969are you doing anything special?
03:53.03rm_youmplayer <_<
03:53.10rm_youand libx264
03:53.29antman8969and you're building in scratchbox?
03:53.31rm_yougetting the dep sources from ubuntu natty
03:53.33rm_youyes
03:53.41antman8969lol thats gona be a pain
03:53.49rm_younot sure where else to get the sources from and actually have debian build rules
03:53.50rm_youlol yes
03:53.54antman8969you're just going and downloading them all one by one?
03:54.00rm_youbasically
03:54.03rm_youapt-source doesn't exist
03:54.06rm_youAFAICT
03:54.09antman8969yea that sux
03:54.13rm_youi could try to build THAT
03:54.14rm_you>_>>
03:54.31rm_yousrsly there is NOTHING in the base repos
03:54.36rm_younot even SVN or GIT
03:54.40rm_youthis is so ridiculous
03:57.20rm_youseriously though, NEED a repo to put libs in
03:57.27rm_youso everyone doesn't have to compile every lib
04:01.23antman8969check out obs
04:01.27antman8969its' better than nothing
04:01.37rm_youhow do i set that up
04:01.46rm_youall i saw guides for were scratchbox and QtCreator
04:02.01rm_youi played with OBS when i was working on Mer, but that was a while ago
04:02.13rm_youwasn't aware Harmattan was set up for OBS
04:02.21antman8969lol its not...
04:02.23rm_youi thought scratchbox was its main env
04:02.48antman8969well you can build in scratchbox, but when you start using things besides QT you run into your dep problem
04:02.57antman8969OBS is trying to be like Maemo extras, if you're familiar with that
04:03.11antman8969but the harmattan target isn't working afaik
04:03.35antman8969but your problem isn't harmattan related is it, just general libs
04:03.47rm_youwell yes
04:03.53rm_youbut ... general libs for hamattan
04:03.57rm_youso if i can't build the libs...
04:04.14rm_youi can't use lins from Fremantle, can I?
04:04.20rm_yous/lins/libs/
04:04.33antman8969lol
04:05.00antman8969some would work yea
04:05.07antman8969there was a compatible lib page somewhere but I lost it
04:05.26antman8969a lot of them would probably work
04:05.27rm_youah
04:05.30rm_youhrmrm
04:05.51antman8969but you're frustration isn't unjustified, there isn't much direction right now imo
04:05.59antman8969kinda every man for himself
04:06.05rm_youyeah
04:06.30rm_youi'm wondering if i can be helpful by, instead of actually coding and building packages, actually just try to generate some infrastructure
04:06.31rm_youlike
04:06.39rm_youhttp://ageofikon.com/prh/
04:07.08antman8969thats neat
04:07.19antman8969should be usefull
04:08.16antman8969but you should get an obs account,  because it's clearly the future
04:08.21rm_youok
04:08.23rm_youwhere do i do that
04:08.40antman8969here lol, in the #meego channel if you have an account on meego.com

04:39.35antman8969and gan900 you want a number only vkb?
04:39.54GAN900No, I encountered a bug.
04:40.03GAN900Couldn't get back to the letters in SMS.
04:40.13antman8969oooh, in that case, no lol
04:40.34antman8969on a a slightly unrelated note, My smileys dont work...
04:41.25antman8969npm I ended up using unix:!symbian:!maemo: in the pro file instead
04:41.42antman8969but that doesn't let me distinguish harmattan from meego so it's not a great solution...

05:00.18DocScrutinizerGAN900: vkbd locked to numeric input for textfields with according attributes, e.g. number for SMS addressee
05:01.11DocScrutinizerit's no bug, it's a feature (maybe not being able to set focus elsewhere might be a bug)
05:01.31GAN900Was on the text input field.
05:01.54GAN900While I was typing out a text, went to add an apostrophe and couldn't get back to the alphas.
05:02.14DocScrutinizerahaaa, that'S different then
05:14.00rm_youlol
05:14.13rm_youwhat happens to me is that the text box i'm typing into for messages disappears
05:14.42rm_youapostrophe is just... a key? why would you even need to hit function or anything
05:18.23npmantman8969 i got my solution to work ... but it won't be able to automatically distinguish harmattan from a system that has /../qmsystem2/qmkeys.h installed

05:22.17GAN900rm_you, vkb
05:22.30rm_youwhy would you use the vkbd >_>
05:22.33GAN900DocScrutinizer, yeah, bet it's a race condition.
05:22.37rm_youi've been trying to figure out how to uninstall/disable it
05:22.44DocScrutinizerI notice tactile feedback sometimes gets lost
05:22.46GAN900rm_you, testing and familiarization.
05:22.49GAN900Yeah
05:23.03GAN900That almost seems like a Components/MTF issue.
05:23.19rm_youtactile feedback?
05:23.40DocScrutinizeralso noticed suddenly my number of chars per SMS was down to 50 or sth
05:23.52DocScrutinizerrm_you: vibra kick
05:25.40rm_youhrm
05:25.42rm_youwell bedtime
05:25.54rm_yougiving up on compiling these 100 dependencies for mplayer
05:26.07rm_youmaybe tomorrow i can get OBS access and it'll be easier? :/ dunno
05:26.31npminteresting,  perhaps by including QtMobility, you also get Q_WS_MAEMO_5 and 6 defined .. qt-mobility-opensource-src-1.2.0/common.pri:135:    maemo6:DEFINES+= Q_WS_MAEMO_6
05:26.59npmrm_you: i'm not sure mplayer will help
05:27.10rm_youyeah you said that earlier
05:27.14rm_youor, javispedro did
05:27.17rm_youbut i still want to try
05:27.17npmhowever, if you get ffmpeg compiled let me know
05:27.23rm_youi mean
05:27.30rm_youwhy would it be different than n900?
05:27.31DocScrutinizerhonestly I wonder how the heck the cracks at Nokia are building things, without headdesking all the time
05:27.54rm_youN900 mplayer played stuff way better than builtin, and suffered from the same issues
05:27.55rm_youdidn't it?
05:28.03rm_youor was there not a video DSP?
05:28.11npmthe concern re mplayer is that there are DSP-based coprocessors that are used to accelerate video decode
05:28.14rm_youi mean, it is just *faster*
05:28.21rm_youyes
05:28.25npmand that they would not be invoked
05:28.25rm_youbut it was faster on N900
05:28.32rm_youand suffered the same drawback
05:28.37npmdepends on the size.
05:28.57rm_youdespite not having the DSP it still was faster :/
05:28.57npmthe n900 has less pixels to push to the screen? compared to the processor increase??
05:29.09rm_youit's the same res?
05:29.10rm_youAFAIK
05:29.17npmis it/
05:29.18npm?
05:29.23rm_youi thought so?
05:29.27rm_youor
05:29.33rm_youah no it added 48h

05:31.01rm_youit barely added any
05:31.04npmand might i say: it is way fing cool to be able to run xdpyinfo on my phone
05:31.19rm_youwell i gotta go to bed
05:31.20rm_youbut
05:31.32rm_youone thing i have learned is, don't draw conclusions before you TRY
05:31.32npmi'm going to bow down to this thing like it's the monolith in 2001
05:31.37rm_youthis stuff is madness
05:31.43rm_younever goes like you'd expect
05:32.01rm_youso when i *see* mplayer being slower, i'll believe it
05:32.15npmtrue. bypassing entire gstreamer pipeline and doing it in mplayer may be faster in some cases
05:32.22rm_youi'm hoping.
05:32.30rm_youit's lagging on videos that played fine on n900
05:32.31rm_youin mplayer
05:32.33npmperhaps for audio
05:32.40rm_you(none of my videos played right in built-in)
05:32.56rm_yousleeps
05:33.00npmgnight
05:35.46npm384000/409920 ... aka 7% more pixels to push
05:51.21DocScrutinizerso, is harmattan back to plain alsa now? or how is play-sound called this week, if we mustn't use aplay?
05:54.28DocScrutinizerdon't get me wrong, not missing play-sound really, it was so retarded and limited in configurability (WTF does spellcheck blame this word?)... But honestly, it was really nice to get some advice how to use audio, from cmdline
05:54.52DocScrutinizer~spell configurability

05:56.51DocScrutinizermoo RST38h
05:57.02RST38hWhy do we have a separate harmattan channel anyway? Feels weird
05:57.15DocScrutinizer*YAWN* still way too little storage to get some 50MB manpages :-S
05:57.20RST38hWill it be absorbed into #maemo once N9 hits the market?
05:57.36DocScrutinizerpossibly
05:58.24DocScrutinizerthat's the time when I start #fremantle ;-)
06:02.13DocScrutinizerwell, it's a *user device*, right? Nah wait, the backside clearly says "DEVELOPER DEVICE"
06:02.49DocScrutinizerso I guess the ~8GB aren't exactly needed for mp3, a few manpages should fit nicely

14:55.59lardmanI've been looking at Qt Quick, but for some reason can't open qml files in Qt Creator. Is this usual?
14:57.03lardmanStskeeps: If you're about, I was also looking at the meego-camera app, and wondering how to stick mBarcode decoding in there. I've no clue tbh, and can't see how wrapping the decoder as a qml component is going to do much
14:57.43lardmanI can't even work out what format an image buffer could be passed across in. I guess an Image, but no sign of one being output in the qml stuff afaict
14:57.56lardmanseems to me I'd need to stick to the lower level C++ stuff
14:58.08javispedrodoing image stuff on js would be pain =)
14:59.14lardmanI'm not seeing much appeal in the whole qml thing atm, no gui designer, and the recommendation is to simply wrap my existing components in a qml wrapper
14:59.27javispedroyeah
14:59.44javispedroI see qml mostly as glue
14:59.53javispedrothe kind of stuff that you used to do on python, etc.
15:00.08lardmanI just came into work thinking that I needed an SDK update as I was missing a gui designer, but everything seems to be installed
15:01.35lardmanwell I'm glad it's not just me anyway :)
15:04.56lardmanjavispedro: do you know where I can download qml viewer
15:05.25javispedronope, it came with qt here
15:05.34lardmanhmm, strange
15:06.47lardmanperhaps I need to install the qt quick for symbian stuff

19:08.45antman8969soo.... I've built fennec for harmattan... but aegis won't let me install it........
19:11.01GeneralAntillesAh, shoplifters.
19:11.15TSCHAKeeewonders why everybody is soooo shocked that they can't manually shove stuff on the phone
19:11.16GeneralAntillesSo, anybody know if there's a plugin interface for sticking things on the lock screen?
19:11.56lcukwonders how come people have problems putting stuff on the phone
19:12.04GeneralAntillesAegis.
19:12.22lcukGeneralAntilles, installed 4/4 .debs tried so far
19:12.30lcukonly prevented from manually updating a binary
19:12.48TSCHAKeeeand that's probably what everybody is trying to do, oh look, it built, i'll just ssh it over
19:12.55GeneralAntillesI think Texrat just wrote a blog post about WFMing.
19:13.09rm_youlbt: hey
19:13.11lcukGeneralAntilles, link!
19:13.17rm_youlbt: i was asking you about OBS
19:13.20GeneralAntilleshttp://tabulacrypticum.wordpress.com/2011/07/12/works-for-me/
19:13.28GeneralAntillesI need a camera icon on the lock screen.
19:13.35GeneralAntillesTakes too damn long to get the camera up.
19:13.44GeneralAntillesGuy rand away while I was fudging around with my stupid phone.
19:17.54lcukGeneralAntilles, agreed actually
19:18.07lcukthe camera button gave easy media access
19:19.10epageGeneralAntilles: the quick launch buttons (including camera) are available from the lock screen
19:19.48SpeedEvilSome random gesture - like a 4 finger drag from top-bottom or bottom-top on lock to activate cam woul be good
19:19.55rm_youcamera on mine "times out" and tries to crash and i have to say "no don't crash" and eventually it loads the camera
19:20.06rm_youtakes a looong time
19:25.54antman8969does aegis have a problem decompressing things? I'm not sure why this won't install....
19:26.11rm_yousooo, someone tell me if they think this is a good idea and/or if they would use it
19:27.25rm_youi might set up a repository that allows users to upload debs to it (and we say "please upload any libraries you compile), and have a simple approval system that I can add a few trusted people to... and then we could actually have one repository that could contain all the necessary libs to actually compile things
19:27.38rm_youbecause right now i'm pretty sure i'm the 100th person to compile some of these libs
19:28.18antman8969well yes, but the obs!
19:28.50fralsuh
19:29.04fralswhere is the documentation to get qt sdk setup with n950 on windows?
19:29.33MohammadAGdocumentation? just grab the latest Qt SDK
19:29.38antman8969idk the windows specific nature of you problem....
19:29.42fralsi want usbnetworking
19:29.43frals;(
19:29.54MohammadAGjust grab the latest Qt SDK
19:29.56fralsand i recall seeing a link to drivers or similar on some getting started crap
19:30.38MohammadAGdon't make me say that again
19:30.50fralsi have the latest qt sdk already :p
19:31.18MohammadAGthen you made me say it twice for no reason? fk u
19:31.19MohammadAG:P
19:33.51GeneralAntillesepage, does it require another swipe?
19:34.09GeneralAntillesepage, yeah, way too fiddly with adrenaline going.
19:34.13epageDrag bottom to an inch or two up and hold
19:35.07epageAlso it doesn't work with everything like event view and keyboard
19:36.37rm_youantman8969: the OBS yes, but sometimes these things take effort to recompile
19:37.06MohammadAGI'll ask again, is OBS up?
19:37.58MohammadAGcause otherwise I want to make a repo with shit missing from the SDK
19:38.19rm_youMohammadAG: yeah, so thats what i want to do too -- want to work together?
19:38.34MohammadAGI can give you access if I make it an outside repo
19:39.06MohammadAGgit, svn, x11-utils (xprop and friends)
19:39.09rm_youyeah
19:39.15antman8969yes obs is up!
19:39.23antman8969weather i'ts as functional as you want it to be...
19:39.29rm_youi was going to make a web interface to upload packages and a quick approval interface for admins
19:39.42GeneralAntillesepage, I need something I can just tap on.
19:39.50MohammadAGwas aiming for an ftp based solution
19:39.53rm_youok
19:39.53MohammadAGor scp
19:39.55rm_youthat works too
19:39.59rm_youftp or scp to one place
19:40.00MohammadAGala dput
19:40.01GeneralAntillesOtherwise they tend to freak out when you put a camera in their face for too long.
19:40.03epageYeah I like the camera cover choice
19:40.05antman8969what worries me about that rm_you is that eventually OBS will be up, and then people will inevitably migrate to it and redo all their library building
19:40.06rm_youand can still have an approval interface
19:40.09epage(on n900)
19:40.30rm_youantman8969: does OBS have a central libs thing? right now it seems like OBS is setting up PPAs
19:40.57rm_youantman8969: i'm under the impression that even WITH obs, i can't utilize all the packages that everyone else already ported and compiled
19:41.00antman8969thats pretty much what it's doing, aside from the core meego repo that you can build against
19:41.04rm_youantman8969: am i wrong?
19:41.13antman8969ooh yea you are lol
19:41.17antman8969well
19:41.19antman8969the whole idea is
19:41.26antman8969you build against other people's ppas
19:41.36antman8969so if we both were on obs, and you made liboauth, I could use your liboauth
19:41.51antman8969and you could build liboauth by using core Meego's libcurl and ssl and stuff
19:41.52rm_youah ok
19:41.53MohammadAGhow do I know you made liboauth0 through terminal
19:41.59rm_youMohammadAG: that
19:42.04rm_youantman8969: that ^^^
19:42.05antman8969osc is the application I think
19:42.09antman8969theres a search feature
19:42.13rm_youdoes it automatically include everyone's PPA?
19:42.15antman8969it's on the wiki somewhere
19:42.19antman8969and theres always the web interface too
19:42.28rm_youi'd just make a cron script to check what PPAs exist and automatically add them all
19:42.31MohammadAGI don't want a web interface
19:42.37rm_youi guess
19:42.38antman8969lol hardcore huh..
19:42.46MohammadAGI want something similar to apt-get install
19:42.51rm_youthis ^^^
19:42.57antman8969well yea, you could just use a script to search the repo.meego.com or w/e it is
19:42.57antman8969yea...
19:43.03MohammadAGif it works, it's there, if not, I package it and ship it to something like -devel
19:43.18antman8969its a pretty different model
19:43.27antman8969and I havn't gotten it to make debs yet either
19:43.28antman8969BUT
19:43.46antman8969the point is, soon it will, and to fragment the devs between a private repo and the intended one
19:43.52antman8969seems like a deterrant
19:43.54antman8969not to mention
19:44.01antman8969the n9 will never be our n900
19:44.03MohammadAGI dislike the concept of private repos
19:44.16antman8969i mispoke, I meant a repo that we set up
19:44.22antman8969as opposed to the standard meego obs
19:45.24antman8969it's lame in some ways
19:45.37antman8969but I guess I don't consider this "my phone" really, just a device I use to test end user content
19:45.53antman8969I can't bring it with me and treat it like the n900
19:46.06antman8969because I'm not allowed to do anything because of aegis...
19:54.40rm_youhrm
19:54.52rm_youwell, can I get into OBS?
19:58.25antman8969lol never got a hold of lbt?
19:58.44antman8969I actually just tried to talk to him in #meego but no answer
19:59.08rm_youyeah
19:59.19rm_youi left a message for X-Fade but he never responded either
20:00.21antman8969maybe they did ? go to pub.meego.com and try to login with your meego.com password
20:00.44antman8969thats not te url lol sry, let  me get it
20:00.52antman8969https://build.pub.meego.com/
20:01.11rm_younope
20:01.36antman8969lame
20:02.10antman8969but yea I understand your frustration, without any library source all you can make is plain qt apps
20:02.24rm_youyes, very frustrating
20:02.48antman8969I would actually just develop for maemo in the mean time honestly
20:03.00antman8969I have a client that uses libouath and it's in extras for maemo so I was able to make it there
20:03.03rm_you>_>
20:03.04antman8969now I'm just waiting to port it
20:03.07rm_youthe apps i want are IN maemo
20:03.14rm_youi need to port them to harmattan
20:03.14antman8969haha

20:03.34rm_youT_T
20:03.50antman8969or make simple qt web apps that ppl want / need ?

20:08.40rm_youyeah
20:08.44lbtOK
20:08.47rm_youthat was... minimally informative
20:08.58rm_youmy issue is lack of libs to compile against
20:09.07rm_youspent yesterday trying to tackle about 100 nested dependencies
20:09.14rm_youi felt like i was back in 1990
20:09.39rm_youexcept instead of just installing them, i had to compile them all
20:09.43lbtso the question I have is more "how do we maintain them?"
20:09.57rm_youwasn't expecting developing Harmattan apps to be like installing Linux From Scratch :P
20:10.09rm_youhrm
20:10.11rm_youwell
20:10.29rm_youthe maemo-extras system for ITOS2008 seemed to work well
20:10.33rm_you:)
20:10.34antman8969similarly to how they were maintained on extras I suppose?
20:10.35rm_youdiablo
20:10.39rm_youyes
20:10.49antman8969and even if it didn't, with no replacement system then all we can make are qt apps
20:10.49lbtthey weren't maintained ... they were tossed into a pile
20:10.51rm_youi never actually compiled anything for maemo5 really, besides ABL
20:11.05rm_youwell, it was better than nothing
20:11.09rm_youwhich is what we seem to have now
20:11.12rm_youbut i get your point
20:11.20rm_youwe should be brainstorming and discussing something that is even better

20:12.47lbtantman8969: sure...
20:13.19antman8969do you know if the harmattan obs target is working? I was trying to compile against it (because harmattan starts its apps using invoker / Mdeclarativewindow) but it won't appearr in the build status after being added

20:15.05rm_youso surrounds is what i'm talking about needing
20:15.08antman8969which is Meego:1.2:harmattan
20:15.13lbtrm_you: yep...
20:15.24lbtIMHO ... porting/maintaining ?
20:15.29rm_youbut... it is not really in place yet / functional?
20:15.59lbtrm_you: only because no-one else has really stepped up
20:16.50rm_youlbt: so what do I have to do to "step up" and help?
20:16.58rm_youi guess that's not really clear to me
20:18.11lbtI don't think we have a clear answer....
20:18.28lbtdo we need to simply have maintainers for libraries?
20:18.39lbtdo we need to nominate an upstream?
20:19.01antman8969what is the alternative?
20:19.34rm_youwell i have been using either squeeze or natty as my upstream
20:19.42lbttake on full 'maintainership' .... monitor for security, own bugs
20:19.46rm_yousince they come with debian buildrules
20:20.04lbtrm_you: and this is the point .. at least get everyone on the same page :)
20:20.21rm_youyou mentioned using openSuse, i assume because they already use OBS (and, wrote it?)
20:20.34rm_youi don't really CARE
20:20.36rm_youas long as it works
20:20.41lbtbear in mind this was for MeeGo
20:20.42rm_youand i think many people are in the same position
20:20.53rm_youthey'd rather not even KNOW how it works so long as it does
20:20.54lbtand Harmattan is not rpm based
20:20.58rm_youexcellent
20:20.59rm_youso
20:21.11rm_youwe can pick squeeze or natty and run?
20:21.19rm_youi'm not actually sure which is a closer fit
20:21.26antman8969neither!
20:21.31rm_youdebian might be better from a #legal standpoint
20:21.36antman8969if you launch your apps using the invoker then you won't be able to compile
20:22.16lbtantman8969: you had armvel
20:22.24lbtarmv8el
20:22.57antman8969auto complete :/ assumed it was meaningful
20:23.19antman8969lbt, could libs be treated like every other package? Someone builds in their home and then promotes to testing to get migrated?
20:23.27lbtclearly you're helping us idiot proof it ;)
20:23.45lbtyes, that makes sense
20:23.59lbtI'd suggest we have Surrounds:Testing though
20:24.02rm_youwell that doesn't solve the main problem he brought up about compatibility across projects with no real maintainer for the lib
20:24.09rm_youi thought
20:24.17rm_youbecause that's still just "port and forget"
20:24.24antman8969but
20:24.33rm_youthen again that's still SOMETHING
20:24.35lbtyes - but then we can automate tracking the upstream
20:24.46rm_youyeah
20:24.47rm_youk
20:24.50antman8969and the libs would stay up to date as long as someone wanted them to be
20:25.32antman8969well hey, the sooner the better, can really develop atm...
20:25.38lbtantman8969: you appear to have written a .spec for harmattan ... :)
20:26.21antman8969lol ye athat wasn't in there first... I couldn't find how to trigger a deb build
20:26.26antman8969should I upload my debian directory??
20:26.30antman8969<PROTECTED>
20:26.30lbtyou need a .dsc
20:26.35antman8969ooh
20:26.39antman8969well thats great...
20:26.41antman8969uploading now
20:26.56lbtI assume debian/ is in the tarball
20:27.23antman8969did you happen to do someting just now?
20:27.28rm_youlbt: so assuming i have a source deb/tar.gz, how do i go about getting it built in OBS?
20:27.30antman8969the repo is now appearing
20:27.38lbtI did ... I added armv7el
20:28.16lbtrm_you: upload the .dsc and the .tar.gz ... wait
20:28.36rm_you?
20:29.00lbtthat's it ... just upload them
20:29.03rm_youreading this: http://en.opensuse.org//openSUSE:Build_Service_Tutorial
20:29.09lbtmmm
20:29.20rm_youis it accurate to our instance?
20:29.25lbtno
20:29.34lbthas anyone got a nice python qml app for harmattan ?
20:30.39rm_youumm ok so
20:30.45rm_youi'm trying to build this:
20:30.46rm_youftp://ftp.videolan.org/pub/x264/snapshots/last_x264.tar.bz2
20:30.50rm_yousooo
20:31.04rm_youi uploaded it via the web interface into a package i created called "x264"
20:31.11rm_youso what now
20:31.24epagelbt not yet, just getting started learning qml and it has been enough of a pain that I'm making some debugging tools first (dislike IDEs)
20:31.24rm_youi feel like i'm missing the point entirely
20:31.56lbtepage: OK ... emacs only for me :)
20:32.09epageeven emacs is too bloated :P
20:32.10lbtrm_you: a .dsc
20:32.33lbtepage: ah.... you miss the point... emacs defines "just right"
20:32.51lbtrm_you: you need to have packaged it ... yes?
20:33.38rm_youlbt: what? the entire point of this is that i haven't managed to package it because it requires like 20 libs
20:33.56rm_youhave been trying in SB
20:34.15lbtmmm ... Harmattan is a distro.
20:34.15rm_youspent yesterday working through 10 or so of them and getting those to compile
20:34.29lbtcompile... not packaged?
20:34.34rm_youdebs yes
20:34.36rm_youpackaged
20:34.37lbtOK
20:34.40rm_youbut i haven't finished yet
20:34.47lbtso each of them needs uploading
20:34.58rm_youso i upload what... the debs?
20:35.01rm_youfor the libs i've done?
20:35.19lbtwhy would you upload debs to a builder?
20:35.24rm_younot sure
20:35.24lbtdid you use autobuilder?
20:35.25antman8969lol
20:35.30rm_youbut you asked if they were packaged
20:35.35antman8969upload the tar.gz and a dsc
20:35.38lbtyes....
20:35.51lbtantman8969: I did say that didn't I ?
20:35.59antman8969you said deb I thought
20:36.02lbt23/07/2011 20:28] <lbt> rm_you: upload the .dsc and the .tar.gz ... wait
20:36.40rm_youso... for the package "x264", i upload the 20 or so tar.gz and .dsc pairs?
20:36.48rm_youand it will compile them all? or
20:36.59rm_youthis doesn't seem any different than scratchbox
20:37.06lbtI'm thinking you need to grok what a package is
20:37.26rm_youfor the last 10 years, to me, package == .deb or .rpm
20:37.36antman8969yea
20:37.37antman8969it makes the deb
20:37.39rm_youanything less than that is "source files"
20:37.40antman8969from the tar.gz
20:37.43lbtah ... so now you're on the other side
20:38.01rm_youoh you meant "package" in OBS
20:38.12lbt"to package" : create the distro-specific rules to turn a tarball into a .deb or .rpm
20:38.41rm_youok, so the verb, not the noin
20:38.43rm_you*noun
20:38.49antman8969lol
20:39.03rm_youyeah so back when i built ebuilds for gentoo, or when i write debian/rules, etc
20:39.07rm_youi am "packaging"
20:39.10lbtyes
20:39.18rm_youright...
20:39.33lbtI assumed.... sry
20:39.44rm_youi guess what i'm struggling to understand is, how is OBS helping me at all with dependencies vs. just using SB
20:39.53rm_youmaybe the problem is i was misinformed earlier
20:40.01rm_youwhen we were discussing what OBS was supposed to help with
20:40.09rm_youi remember using OBS for Mer
20:40.12antman8969well, you will be helping ppl
20:40.24lbtOBS is a scalable packaging system for a distro
20:40.45rm_youand when i wanted to build a package, i would ssh in to my machine with OBS, and say "build this tar.gzs please" and it would automatically download the source for every dep and compile it for me
20:40.45dm8tbrthe idea is that those packages are available to everyone to base off or just use them
20:41.07SpeedEvilAnd that only one person needs to build liblzma
20:41.09rm_youthis does not appear to be even remotely similar to the OBS i used for Mer
20:41.09SpeedEvilOr whatever
20:41.22rm_youfirst of all, that was in a shell :P
20:41.53rm_youbut regardless
20:42.09lbtrm_you: it's identical :)
20:42.14rm_youi was expecting it to automatically grab source from somewhere (like debian or somesuch) and take care of a lot of things for me
20:42.35rm_youso if i'm trying to compile this app, and it has 20 depends... do i have to upload the source for the depends myself too?
20:42.38lbtrm_you: ah... you've been reading Asimov again :)
20:42.48rm_youbut that's HOW IT WORKED for Mer
20:42.56rm_youthis isn't fantasy :/
20:42.59lbtno... it's really not
20:43.01rm_youi actually DID this
20:43.03lbtI wuz there
20:43.29dm8tbrrm_you: if those libs have already been packaged, no
20:43.51rm_youso i guess Mer was just 1000% more fully built-out than Harmattan is
20:43.59rm_youand that's the problem :/
20:44.03lbtpossibly
20:44.20DocScrutinizerthe point
20:44.23lbtbut it sounds like you're building some video system ?
20:44.31dm8tbrI guess OBS was not around from day-1 of fremantle
20:44.46lbtso .. usually "hello world" is a better starting point :)
20:44.51rm_youlol
20:44.54rm_youwell
20:45.05rm_youi can build a hello world prog in SB in like 20 seconds
20:45.09lbtneat
20:45.13rm_youi guess i can try to then run that through OBS
20:45.17lbtyep
20:45.17rm_youto "learn"
20:45.20rm_youis that your point?
20:45.32lbtand then build one that depends on another lib
20:45.38lbtpackage that lib
20:45.39lbtupload
20:45.41rm_youwell, i guess I need to get all these libs compiling in SB first anyway
20:45.45lbtand see how the 2 interact
20:45.49rm_youso i can upload them to OBS
20:45.57rm_youso back to that for now
20:46.00lbtand you can do that anyway ....
20:46.14lbtas you get one to compile ... upload the .tgz and the .dsc
20:46.21rm_youyeah
20:46.36lbtif it builds in a *clean* SB then it will (should) build on the OBS
20:46.55lbtso start at the bottom and work up
20:47.23DocScrutinizerfeels loke gentoo native
20:47.27rm_youright now i'm trying to figure out why dpkg-buildpackage says i have like 20 unmet depends on mplayer
20:47.28DocScrutinizerlike*
20:47.41rm_youbut when i run ./configure && make, it successfully builds
20:47.52lbtDocScrutinizer: MeeGo is a new distro... that's the point
20:48.05DocScrutinizeryes, I know
20:48.25lbtrm_you: because dpkg-buildpackage looks to see if you've *installed* the build deps
20:48.29rm_youi think i need to build apt-source for SB
20:48.33lbtyou just make installed them
20:48.37rm_youlbt: but i haven't
20:48.39rm_youi mean
20:48.45rm_youi haven't make/installed them either
20:48.56DocScrutinizerand the distro maintainer did a job that's not exactly convincing and attracting "new developers"
20:48.57rm_youthese deps are like
20:48.59rm_youhildon
20:49.03antman8969lbt is there a wiki page yet where people can claim what libs they intend to build, or something similar?
20:49.03rm_youthat doesn't even exist
20:49.14lbtDocScrutinizer: yes... they aren't building a distro
20:49.28lbtthey're building a baseline for commercial vendors to build products
20:49.39lbtif you want a distro... look around
20:49.45DocScrutinizerhey, isn't that the same?
20:49.47lbtdown to us mate :)
20:49.51lbtno.. it's really not
20:50.32lbtantman8969: yes.. ITP
20:50.52DocScrutinizerI'd maintain my notion it is, just your target audience is different
20:50.54Clintlbt: can you add me too? (clint)
20:51.07lbtdone Clint
20:51.16antman8969very useful http://wiki.meego.com/Build_Infrastructure/Community_Builder/ITP
20:51.27lbtDocScrutinizer: yes ... but then 'we' think we're the target audience .. we're not
20:51.33Clintlbt: thanks
20:52.09lbtis off for a bit ...
20:52.11lbtl8r
20:52.42rm_youi seem to have forgotten how the structure of a debian repo works
20:52.50rm_youi am looking at http://repository.maemo.org/extras/pool/fremantle/free/m/mplayer/
20:52.57rm_youi am expecting there to be a source tar.gz there]
20:53.03DocScrutinizerlbt: how's that? are we not professional enough? :-o
20:53.21rm_youdo i need to be looking in a different place for the source?
20:54.07antman8969you're wondering how to... upload the source? or where to get it?
20:54.13rm_youwhere to get it
20:54.21rm_younormally when i want source, i just go to the repo and grab it
20:54.29rm_youand usually it is right next to the deb
20:54.43rm_youthe version in garage was the one built only for diablo
20:54.58rm_youi need the source from the fremantle port
20:56.12rm_youlike this: ftp://mirrors.powersource.cx/pub/debian-multimedia/pool/main/m/mplayer/
20:56.15DocScrutinizerlbt: look there are distros for dentists, distros for musicians, distros for developers of games, distros for musicians, even distros for FPGA programmer EE
20:56.27rm_youthere are the debs, and the source tar.gz, and the dsc and the patches for the distro
20:56.43antman8969i am about to leave but
20:56.45antman8969http://repository.maemo.org/extras/pool/fremantle/free/source/liba/libao0/
20:56.48antman8969that should be helpful
20:56.52rm_youAH
20:56.56rm_youit puts it in a seperate tree
20:56.57DocScrutinizerI really can't see why this distro for commercial vendors to build products is so terribly poorly supported and maintained
20:57.06rm_youthanks antman8969
20:57.14antman8969yea, like when you add it  to apt you need to make it a deb or a deb-src
20:57.16antman8969np
20:57.40antman8969ill bbl gl
20:57.53lbtDocScrutinizer: because a distro for dentists usually bases on top of a general purpose distro. MeeGo bases on a bare-minimum distro.
20:58.34DocScrutinizerlook at specialized meta distros, like e.g knoppix
20:58.59DocScrutinizera rescue distro for the only purpose to recover broken systems
20:59.14rm_youmaybe I am missing a repo?
20:59.22rm_youin scratchbox?
21:00.20DocScrutinizerlbt_away: finally it is Nokia who want *us* to do sth *they* profit from - they want us to help them sell phones. So they damn better do all for making this a pleasant ride
21:00.46rm_you-mcpu=cortex-a8 -mfpu=neon -mfloat-abi=softfp
21:00.50rm_youis that still accurate for n950?
21:01.53dm8tbrwasn't it hardfloat now? (haven't compiled anything yet)

21:06.42DocScrutinizerdm8tbr: the fun bit is .deb for N900 install and run :-o
21:07.38DocScrutinizerdespite some always claimed this was *impossible*
21:08.35DocScrutinizerseems there's a bug or patch in elf loader that allows to load softfp as well as hardfp
21:09.39DocScrutinizeror harmattan *IS* softfp, and thus not at al compatible with meegoCE
21:09.54dm8tbrwell as long as there isn't any floats being passed around it will just work
21:10.25dm8tbre.g. if the binary is static it will work just fine
21:10.31DocScrutinizerthat's what I thought as well, but I've been told so many times it can't I almost believed it
21:11.00dm8tbrif the binary makes only non-float calls to libraries, everything should be fine
21:11.15dm8tbrit's only if it passes floats it will likely blow up
21:16.26lcukdm8tbr, DocScrutinizer - the libliqbase library and then apps appear to work
21:16.35lcukand I am sure that somewhere I use floating point numbers

22:33.03DocScrutinizerplease note I have not the faintest idea about all that FP stuff, just stating the obvious
22:37.10Damion3rm_you: that might clash with newer libs for video.  I'd use develsh so you can execute stuff and scp mplayer and libs to user's homedir.  the stuff I've run so far has just been the odd binary scped like iwconfig, qemu and rsync
