No news.

Mailing list

Still no news from Jono Bacon and the Ubuntu guys 8-(

Marketing Strike Force

No news.

Packaging

• Debian experimental now has Elisa and Pigment 0.3.1 thanks to Loïc Minier.
• Ubuntu Gutsy has them too thanks to Sebastien Bacher. Apparently there are some missing dependencies that we'll look after.

LIRC

• Loïc Dardant contacted Denis Gautherot to package glirc from the latest source code available in the bazaar branch.
• Loïc et Ouattara Aziz started to port the LIRC configuration GTK interface to an Elisa plugin. Stay tuned!

21:21 < Kaleo> ...
21:21 < Kaleo> 5) packaging
21:21 < Kaleo> Good news!
21:21 < Kaleo> Elisa & Pigment 0.3.1 are in Debian experimental
21:21 < philn_> lool: ?
21:22 < _wattazoum_> houra ! :-)
21:22 < dloic> does it mean that elisa will be in gutsy ???
21:23 < philn_> should be in unstable soon i guess, then gutsy sync will follow no?
21:23 < dloic> but there is a freeze for universe package no ?
21:23 < dloic> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GutsyReleaseSchedule
21:23 < Kaleo> dloic: the freeze is past
21:23 < Kaleo> we have to push for a UVF
21:24 < dloic> it mean a repoitory ?
21:24 < Kaleo> but that does not change much for UMC-livecd
21:25 < dloic> repository *
21:25 < dloic> what is a UVF ?
21:25 < philn_> another sigle
21:26 < Kaleo> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FreezeExceptionProcess#head-b30a20fcdbd4ca2a1716a2c8b94dd8dc2ab2d71c
21:26 < dloic> ok, thanls ;)
21:26 < dloic> thanks *
21:29 < _wattazoum_> oki, who will take care of pushing for UVF ?
21:29 < philn_> i'm not sure it'd be good to be in gutsy, without at least the UI to configure media locations
21:30 < dloic> agree with you
21:30 < _wattazoum_> same for me
21:30 < Kaleo> philn_: better than 0.1.7 no ?
21:30 < _wattazoum_> sure, Kaleo go a point here
21:30 < _wattazoum_> got*
21:30 -!- RealNitro__ [n=jens@ip-83-134-133-158.dsl.scarlet.be] has joined #elisa
21:31 < philn_> yes, sure.. but not ready to be by default in ubuntu imho
21:31 < _wattazoum_> since there is already version 1.7 on feisty ...
21:31 < _wattazoum_> 0.1.7
21:31 < dloic> we can wait for the next, and only produced live cd
21:31 < dloic> and open a repository
21:32 < Kaleo> philn_: 0.1.7 is already in Ubuntu
21:32 < dloic> umc is not ready for me
21:32 < dloic> so it's not bad if 0.3.1 is not in gutsy
21:32 < dloic> just my opinion
21:33 < philn_> oh, 0.3.1 is in gutsy too http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/gnome/elisa
21:33 < _wattazoum_> will not be by default , but should be made available
21:33 < dloic> philn_: yes but there is problem with dependances no ?
21:33 < _wattazoum_> juste like this
21:34 < philn_> dloic: no, that seems to be lool's package synced..
21:34 < Kaleo> philn_: awesome news!
21:34 < dloic> philn_: oh
21:35 < _wattazoum_>   python-coherence
21:35 < _wattazoum_> Package not available
21:35 < Kaleo> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/elisa/+bug/132408
21:35 < Kaleo> Sebastien Bacher synced it from Debian
21:35 < Kaleo> Thanks to him!
21:36 < _wattazoum_> but some dependancies are missing though :-/
21:37 < Kaleo> who would like to take care of that?
21:37 -!- thansen|laptop [n=thansen@19.243.sfcn.org] has joined #elisa
21:37 < dloic> not me, I don't know packaging, sorry
21:38 < _wattazoum_> what's the deal ? Just to ask on REVU for an upload of the elisa packqge ?
21:39 < _wattazoum_> or open a bug on Launchpad, asking for a dependancy fix ?
21:39 < Kaleo> yes
21:39 < Kaleo> against the right packages
21:40 < _wattazoum_> to get it quick , we need to have some contacts inside MOTU
21:42 < philn_> maybe uzuul should do that
21:42 < _wattazoum_> I think too
21:43 < _wattazoum_> In french we say : "les absents ont toujours tort " :-p
21:43 < _wattazoum_> let's put him on this ;-)
