13:32 < CIA-24> rene * r31577 /trunk/package/develop/vala/vala.desc: * updated vala (0.5.2 -> 0.5.3)
13:32 < CIA-24> rene * r31578 /trunk/package/gnome2/at-spi/at-spi.desc: * updated at-spi (1.24.0 -> 1.24.1)
13:44 < CIA-24> rene * r31579 /trunk/package/gnome2/gnome-python-desktop/gnome-python-desktop.desc: * updated gnome-python-desktop (2.24.0 -> 2.24.1)
13:46 < mpp> apache-ant builds outside homedir
13:46 < mpp> so no OO building :-(
13:46 < rxr> I build ooo without javav suport and without apache-ant
13:47 < CIA-24> rene * r31580 /trunk/package/emulators/vice/vice.desc: * updated vice (2.0 -> 2.1)
13:47 < CIA-24> rene * r31581 /trunk/package/security/libfwbuilder/libfwbuilder.desc: * updated libfwbuilder (2.1.16 -> 3.0.3)
13:47 < mpp> how is that
13:48 < mpp> it's the default packaged in t2
13:48 < rxr> ?
13:48 < mpp> try emerge apache-ant
13:48 < mpp> no i mean OO
13:48 < rxr> I do not want any java on my system - thanks
13:48 < mpp> openoffice-org
13:48 < mpp> ah okay
13:49 < rxr> the openoffice-org has conditionals for adding removing optional features, such as the java mess
13:49 < mpp> so openoffice-org shouldn't have apache-ant in it's deps
13:49 < rxr> but it does not yet build thru completely on my system either
13:49 < mpp> k
13:49 < rxr> no the deps are correct
13:49 < rxr> we just have to add support some day to mark optional deps
13:50 < koan> that would be wonderful
13:50 < rxr> but the build failure (with some libxul-nss.pc symlink as discussed this week in IRC with mtr) fails in it (italian) files packaging
13:50 < rxr> if I can not fix it in some minutes I'll re-try with "it" stuff disabled
13:53 < rxr> hm - maybe it's not even the it files fault
13:53 < rxr> a manual build and tinkering reveals my ooo might even fully built, just some post build "messing" failed
13:53 * rxr needs a tea
13:53 < rxr> too bad I forgot to put the office milk back to the fridge, so no coffee today :-(
13:59 < mtr> re
14:06 < koan> btw rxr do I need to supply the cache file of a new package? because I noticed you have to change it anyway
14:08 < rxr> no it's fine
14:09 < rxr> the only thing is the build time that I want to have right and T2 only inserts the real value for Build-Target builds when it has the binutils reference time
14:09 < koan> ok
14:09 < rxr> the only thing you could improve is not to leave spaces at the end of lines in your editor
14:09 < koan> ok, is there a simple script to strip trailing spaces?
14:10 < rxr> scripts/Commit also visualizes thhose with red background
14:10 < koan> ah nice, I'll try to think of using it
14:10 < rxr> sed -i 's/ *$//g' or so should work
14:10 < rxr> maybe your editor has some visualization of different save preferesnces for that
14:11 < koan> I use vim, I'll look into it
14:11 < rxr> but even that is minor
14:11 < rxr> I'm used to some "minor cleanups along the lines" :-)
14:13 < koan> oh and I have another, totally unrelated question, how good do you know syslinux?
14:13 < rxr> ehr - little?
14:13 < rxr> dived thru the code debugging an USB CD boot issue once, why ?
14:14 < koan> ok, I'm preparing an interview with the syslinux guy for FOSDEM, but I don't know the project well, so I have a little trouble finding good questions
14:15 < rxr> heh :-) okay
14:15 < rxr> the author?
14:15 < rxr> H P Avin?
14:15 < koan> indeed
14:15 < rxr> Anvin even
14:16 < rxr> guess it's a little diffucult indeed for this "not so visible low-level" projects
14:17 < koan> yes I have other interviews with more visible and more general projects, like Fedora, Debian, Scala, Gnash, FreeIPa etc, that's rather easy to find questions for
14:19 < rxr> hm - strange
14:19 < rxr> ooo builds into the wrong output directory for me ...
14:19 < rxr> x86_64, while it's an pure i386 build - strange

14:30 < Chris67> @mpp Hello! I use your CD image from last week. When i now make a Trunk generic minimal livecd i get the foolwing error at stage 1 glibc.
14:31 < Chris67> @mpp: multiple definition of `__mempcpy_chk`
14:33 < Chris67> Did you have an idea, what's wrong with me ;-) I think the problem is sitting behind the table.
14:35 < rxr> probably just some CPU optimization level glibc has a problem with
14:35 < rxr> (I wonder if I got a private mail asking for some via optimization with the same error?)
14:35 < rxr> yep, did
14:35 < rxr> maybe even from you ?
14:35 < rxr> what optimization setting have you choosen ?
14:42 < Chris67> I didn't made the following changes at default: generic, minimal, livecd, x86, pentium, , isolinux, , 4, *, *,0
14:43 < Chris67> The other variables are default. The number of parallel jobs was 1
14:43 < rxr> it'e likely just the pentium optimization
14:43 < rxr> guess some typo or thinko (probably just a one-liner to fix) in the glibc sources
14:45 < Chris67> Did you think, it works fine with another CPU. Less than pentium?
14:45 < rxr> less or more
14:45 < rxr> I think I ususllaly test build with pentiumpro
14:46 < rxr> but I'll test build your opt (pentium) to reproduce and hopefully fix
14:46 < Chris67> I will check the i486 at the moment.
14:47 < Chris67> On which systems can i use the pentiumpro?
14:47 < rxr> systems ?
14:47 < rxr> pentiumpro == (approx) i686
14:48 < rxr> pentiium + cmov etc.
14:48 < Chris67> For example an VIA-Board
14:48 < rxr> any (reasonable) CPU form the last century or so
14:48 < rxr> yeah - depends which via
14:48 < rxr> did you also wrote me the email regarding the problem ?
14:49 < Chris67> No, I didn't wrote an email about my problems in the last weeks.
14:49 < rxr> hm - interesting
14:49 < rxr> newever via's have cmov et al.
14:49 < rxr> the lower end don't
14:49 < rxr> I just started a test build with just pentium to hopefully get the same error and fix it
14:51 < Chris67> My build works also, but i think it is slower than yours. I work an small systems. ;-)
15:13 < mpp> re
15:13 < mpp> i updated the iso file yesterday
15:13 < mpp> its generic x86_64
15:17 < Chris67> @mpp Can i update my installed system (from your livecd installed) manually?
15:17 < mpp> off course
15:18 < mpp> just pull the trunk
15:18 < mpp> and emerge
15:44 < Chris67> @rxr it works with i486. Stage 1 of glibc is finished now.
16:54 < CIA-24> rene * r31582 /trunk/package/base/glibc/x86-i586.patch: * fixed glibc for i586

17:31 < Chris67> @rxr Thanks for your help and patch. I will test them next week - I hope so! -
17:32 < Chris67> Best regards and silent chrismas to all.
17:40 < rxr> to you do
17:40 < rxr> too
17:40 < rxr> have fun

20:16 < koan> I'm trying to build gegl (for gimp), but I'm getting this:
20:16 < koan> /bin/sh: line 1: 3651 Segmentation fault (core dumped) GEGL_SWAP=RAM GEGL_PATH=../operations ../tools/introspect > class-hierarchy.html
20:16 < koan> any idea what is going wrong?
20:39 < koan> well I still have no clue how to solve it, but it's in the docs part and if I add the option --disable-docs to the configure script gegl builds fine

21:23 < CIA-24> rene * r31583 /trunk/package/office/openoffice-org/openoffice-org.desc: * marked openoffice-org to theoretically also build on x86-64
21:25 < CIA-24> rene * r31584 /trunk/package/office/openoffice-org/openoffice-org.conf: * cleaned / unified some whitespacing in openoffice-org.conf
21:27 < CIA-24> rene * r31585 /trunk/package/office/openoffice-org/openoffice-org.conf: * cleaned up 2 openoffice-org.conf comments
21:29 < CIA-24> rene * r31586 /trunk/package/office/openoffice-org/openoffice-org.conf:
21:29 < CIA-24> * do not install openoffice-org into opt/openoffice.org${ver:0:1} by
21:29 < CIA-24> default, just use an unversioned, standard opt/openoffice.org
21:33 < CIA-24> rene * r31587 /trunk/package/office/openoffice-org/openoffice-org.conf:
21:33 < CIA-24> * simplified openoffice-org internal object / output dir, just use
21:33 < CIA-24> wildcard matching than hardcoded translation, fixes all unlisted
21:33 < CIA-24> architectures, and fixes building for i386 on a x86-64 host
21:33 < CIA-24> due to strange auto-detection inside the build system
22:12 < CIA-24> rene * r31588 /trunk/package/www/ (firefox/firefox.conf seamonkey/mozilla-conf.in):
22:12 < CIA-24> * moved code fragment disabling jemalloc in firefox into the seamonkey base
22:12 < CIA-24> code to be reused in the whole mozilla package familly, including xulrunner
22:12 < koan> does gegl build on your x86 machines?

23:22 < CIA-24> rene * r31589 /trunk/package/office/openoffice-org/openoffice-org.conf: * fixed negated (!) pkg checks in openoffice.conf (for older bash versions?)
23:22 < rxr> koan: yes, when I added it it built
23:25 < koan> strange
23:25 < koan> does gimp build? it gives here an error about pygtk.h which isn't found
