Actions made to correct bugs

This page has been written to have a trace about the correction of the packages I have done yet.

Fix NBS for icecpp

• worked well but saw the new upstream version (1.2.0-5) fixed it also

• a sync request is available there: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/zeroc-icee-translators/+bug/256953

• once done, have to sync to ask for removal in NBS.

Fix NBS for icedtea-java7-jre, bug #203636

• Look at http://people.ubuntu.com/~ubuntu-archive/NBS/icedtea-java7-jre page.

  • Found 6 dependencies :

-- intrepid/universe xxx deps on icedtea-java7-jre:
azureus
freecol
project-x
-- intrepid/multiverse xxx deps on icedtea-java7-jre:
sun-javadb-client
sun-javadb-core
sun-javadb-demo

• for each binary package, to find the source package:

  • apt-cache showsrc <package> | grep Package

Package: azureus
Package: freecol
Package: project-x
Package: sun-javadb

• None of those are NBS
  • download all of them and look into debian/control

azureus: 
Depends: openjdk-6-jre | icedtea-java7-jre | sun-java6-jre | sun-java5-jre,
 libcommons-cli-java, liblog4j1.2-java, libseda-java, libswt3.2-gtk-java

freecol:
Depends: openjdk-6-jre | icedtea-java7-jre | sun-java6-jre | j2re1.6 , 
 libhiglayout-java, libwoodstox-java, , java-wrappers (>= 0.1.4)

project-x:
Depends:${misc:Depends}, libcommons-net-java, openjdk-6-jre | icedtea-java7-jre | sun-java6-jre | sun-java5-jre

sun-javadb:
Depends: sun-javadb-common, openjdk-6-jre | sun-java5-jre | sun-java6-jre | icedtea-java7-jre | java2-runtime

• Removed icedtea-java7-jre from dependencies (depends and build-depends) of each package and change maintainer field for non Ubuntu specific package
• dch -i for each of them with xxxubuntu1 (if not specifically packaged for Ubuntu: not Build1 as there is a change in debian/control)
• Build source package as runtime one
• ERRORS in building azureus (even the original source package), but not found in FTBFS from harvest. A large merge is waiting in MoM for it

example:

   ./org/gudy/azureus2/ui/console/multiuser/commands/UserCommand.java:30: package org.apache.commons.cli does not exist 

• attach the 4 debdiff to the existing bug (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/project-x/+bug/203636)

Bug #61039 (no desktop entry) and #255086 (FTBFS)

File: sgt-puzzles_7983-1ubuntu1

• https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sgt-puzzles/+bug/61039

• https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sgt-puzzles/+bug/255086

• Try to compile current sgt-puzzles (sudo pbuilder build sgt-puzzles_7983-1.dsc) => FTBFS (because of new flags used in intrepid: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CompilerFlags)

• Fill a bug and put it in progress, assigned to me. #255085
• Begin to work on the FTBFS first, seing that quilt was used in this package

  • check if gtk.c (the faulting file ) is already used in a patch : grep gtk.c debian/patches/*

  • found in 202_online-help.diff, 203_follow-fd.o-clipboards-spec.diff, 304_combine-binaries.diff
  • As no previous patch seems to be relevant, I applied them with quilt and create a new one

export QUILT_PATCHES=debian/patches
quilt push 202_online-help.diff
quilt push 203_follow-fd.o-clipboards-spec.diff
quilt push 304_combine-binaries.diff (but error has weren't is the series file)
quilt new 306_fix-ftbfs-with-fortify-source-2.diff
quilt add gtk.c
vim gtk.c
quilt refresh
quilt pop -a

• I think that unstead searching for the patches including this files, I could use push -a

• echo "306_fix-ftbfs-with-fortify-source-2.diff" >> debian/patches/series

• Changed original maintainer (see below)

• dch -i and add "add 306_fix-ftbfs-with-fortify-source-2.diff to fix FTBFS in gtk.c (LP: #255086)"

• Created and validated the 27 desktop files (one for each game) in debian/desktop/ (created directory)
• Create pixmap icons

for source in `ls icons/*48d8*`
do
dest=$(basename $source | sed -e 's/\([a-z][A-Z]*\)-48d8.png/\1/')
convert $source debian/desktop/${dest}.xpm
done

(and rename the 3 debian renamed files to avoid conflicts)

• Added to debian/rules, after dh_installmenu in binary-arch target

        mkdir -p -m755  debian/sgt-puzzles/usr/share/applications
        install -m644 debian/desktop/*.desktop debian/sgt-puzzles/usr/share/applications
        mkdir -p -m755  debian/sgt-puzzles/usr/share/pixmaps/
        install -m644 debian/desktop/*.xpm debian/sgt-puzzles/usr/share/pixmaps/

• run dch -a and add :

  * add desktop files and xpm files (on for each game) to the menu in
    debian/dekstop (LP: #61039)

• build it and generate the debdiff file attached to the bugs and add intrepid origin-ubuntu ubuntu-patch as a tag (I cannot put any milestone for the bug? Intrepid alpha 4 milestone would have been great), place them back to "confirmed" status and assigned to nobody, subscribe u-u-s

• Send a mail to upstream

'''#245633: wrong text for a .desktop file''' https://bugs.launchpad.net/bzr-gtk/+bug/245633, add also some french translation to it and remove deprecated/wrong key in the .desktop

File: bzr-gtk-0.94.0-1ubuntu1 PATCH COMMITED TO UPSTREAM with rev 0.95.0 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bzr-gtk/+bug/245633/comments/17

• Place the bug status to "in progress" and assigned to me
• Get the source and had a look at it.

As the file to correct is at the root of the source, I had to patch the package.

• The original maintainer was a Debian one, so I changed the debian/control file:

Maintainer: Ubuntu MOTU Developers <ubuntu-motu@lists.ubuntu.com>
XSBC-Original-Maintainer: ...

• used dpatch (as the original maintainer use it) and runned dpatch-edit-patch 04-change-menu-entry.dpatch

  • - vim the right file and change the content of it. Then exit 0 - vim 04-change-menu-entry.dpatch to change the first lines (DP field to give a description of the patch)

(if multiple lines add ## DP: at the begining of each line)

• - add 04-change-menu-entry.dpatch to debian/patches/00list

• run dch -i to update the debian/changelog file and added (LP: #245633)

bzr-gtk (0.94.0-1ubuntu1) intrepid; urgency=low

  * add 04-change-menu-entry.dpatch to fix name, add french translation and
    remove some deprecated keys in olive-gtk.desktop (LP: #245633)

• rebuild the source package with debuild -S (for new diff.gz and .dsc file)

• Finally: debdiff bzr-gtk_0.94.0-1.dsc bzr-gtk_0.94.0-1ubuntu1.dsc > debdiff

• build the package for a try: sudo pbuilder build bzr-gtk_0.94.0-1ubuntu1.dsc

  • - the .deb is in /var/cache/pbuilder/result/ - install in a VM

• run desktop-file-validate olive-gtk.desktop to validate the desktop file

• test the debdiff by patch -p1 < debdiff

• Attach the debdiff to the bug report, place it back to "confirmed" status and assigned to nobody, subscribe u-u-s

• Added tags intrepid origin-ubuntu ubuntu-patch (cf https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Debian/Usertagging)

• Send a mail to upstream
