backseatgreghi11:49
backseatgregI have a question about deb packaging, does anyone master that ?11:51
jebbabackseatgreg: i'm not a master of .deb, but i may be able to help12:19
backseatgregheya thank you12:20
backseatgregI have my source which builds under scratchbox armel12:21
backseatgregI've created a debian directory12:21
backseatgregand added control file with basic infos12:21
backseatgregbut I don't know if it's enought or if I miss something12:21
backseatgregto explain you my problem, it's that I get source package from a website and want to make a precompiled armel package to easily deploy it12:30
jebbaok12:32
jebbawhat package is it, btw?  also, if it's in debian by any chance, easiest path is to pillage it from there.12:32
jebbaas a starter at least12:32
backseatgregit's aircrack-ng suite12:36
backseatgregit's in deb but there's dependencies problem12:36
backseatgreglib versions doesn't match12:36
backseatgregI can directly build it on my n900 but it's inconvenient to have to install all the build stuff (takes disk space)12:40
jebbaah, here's a quick & dirty way to do it. Grab it from debian etch, and update the versions as you see fit.  That way you get a good debian-ish base to build from. ;)12:42
backseatgreglol12:43
backseatgreghum12:43
backseatgregI prefer to build it with good dependencies12:43
jebbawell, you can still do good dependencies. I guess explain " it's in deb but there's dependencies problem"12:48
jebbalots of times packages are marked like   Deps:  foo > 5.0   when it really needs just foo > 3.012:48
jebbaand the ./configure will let you know if you need to bump it or not12:49
backseatgregyep that's exactly that12:50
backseatgregso I force the install ?12:50
jebbai dont know what you mean by force the install12:51
backseatgreg--force-version-depends12:52
backseatgregwith dpkg -i12:52
backseatgregto bypass version checking12:52
jebbaah, no12:54
jebbaedit debian/control  and downgrade the version numbers of the dependencies to versions you have. Then watch the ./configure to make sure it is ok with the versions.12:55
backseatgregsorry to ask this... but how do I edit the debian/control in a .deb file ?12:55
jebbayou don't edit the .deb file12:56
jebbafor instance you could enable this repo:12:56
jebbadeb-src http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ etch main contrib12:57
jebbathen: apt-get source aircrack-ng12:57
jebbathen cd aircrack-ng_1.0.0-1/debian12:57
jebbathen edit the control file there.12:57
backseatgregah12:57
backseatgreg:)12:57
backseatgregoky12:58
backseatgregI got a strange result13:06
backseatgregCould not open /var/lib/apt/lists/ftp.debian.org_debian_dists_etch_main_source_Sources13:06
backseatgregit's not the first repository I add why this one is interpreted as a directory ?13:07
backseatgregfound it13:08
backseatgregapt-get update13:08
jebbasi13:08
backseatgregand by the way :) do you know how to increase rootfs size on the N900 ?13:09
jebbahahah13:14
jebbaya, would be nice if there was an easy way  :)13:14
backseatgregyup making symlink is bad for the health :)13:16
backseatgregthanks for having taken the time to help me got to eat something, see ya13:17

jebbaVDVsx: hmm, i added it and it comes up in HAM to install, but the icon isn't there in HAM (where HAM = hildon application manager--is that what you call it?)15:53

VDVsxjebba, can I see your control file ?16:10
*** BabelO has joined #maemo-devel16:11
jebba1sec16:11
jebbaVDVsx: http://pastebin.ca/171213516:15
jebbaVDVsx: if you want i can even give you acct on server....16:15
VDVsxjebba, seems correct16:17
VDVsxdid you used : uuencode -m icon.png icon.png > icon.png.en to create the icon16:17
jebbahttp://pastebin.ca/1712137   <-- rules file too.   Looks like i gotta put the .desktop in the correct place.16:17
jebbauuencode -m burgerspace.png burgerspace.png > icon.png.en16:17
jebbain rules, looks like i have to move the icons to the correct places too, but this shouldnt affect the HAM.   (to make icon appear on desktop)16:19
VDVsxjebba, no the desktop icon is another story16:19
jebbaor simply:  http://www.freemoe.org/users/jebba/dists/unstable/main/source/burgerspace_1.8.3-4/16:19
jebbacp icons/64/supertux.png $(CURDIR)/debian/supertux-stable/usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/hildon/    ala supertux way....16:20
jebba(it's not that way now, but will change to that)16:20
VDVsxjebba, where you icons now ?16:20
jebba/opt/maemo/usr/share/pixmaps/burgerspace.png16:21
VDVsxnot there, at least I can't see them in the rules file16:21
jebbasymlink here  /usr/share/pixmaps/burgerspace.xpm16:22
jebbathat's where they are from what i built & installed.  The hildon icon path above is from supertux (not mine) and is what i plan to copy but havent yet16:22
VDVsxwell, afaik, the hildon-desktop only pick icons under : /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/hildon/16:24
VDVsxand you need to refresh the icon cache in the posinstall script16:24
jebbaok, doing that now. Not sure why HAM didn't pick up that other one, but wont sweat it for now.16:25
jebba        cp -p src/burgerspace.desktop $(CURDIR)/debian/supertux-stable/usr/share/applications/hildon16:25
jebbagonna do that for .desktop16:25
jebbathe icon that ships with it is a .png that is 32x32. Is this OK for  /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/hildon/ or *MUST* be 48x48?16:26
jebbaVDVsx: thx btw :)16:26
VDVsxjebba, how did you tested the app icon in the ham ? is the package in the repos ?16:27
jebbahave my own repo16:27
jebbahttp://www.freemoe.org/users/jebba/README  VDVsx16:27
VDVsxah ok16:28
VDVsxfor the icons in diablo you need an scalable or at least 64x64 for /scalable/hildon/,  one 48x48 for hicolor/48x48/hildon/, and one 26x26 for hicolor/26x26/hildon/16:30
VDVsxyou've to check for frematle because I don't remember if all are need16:30
VDVsxIIRC at least the smaller is not need anymore16:30
VDVsx*needed16:30
jebbafwiw, here's what supertux has (AFAICT packaged ok):16:32
jebba /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/hildon/supertux.png16:32
jebba /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/hildon/supertux.png16:32
jebba /usr/share/icons/hicolor/26x26/hildon/supertux.png16:32
VDVsxjebba, I did supertux port, it works but I'm not sure if its correct, since I forget to check :P16:34
jebbahaha16:34
VDVsxjebba, its correct to diablo16:34
jebbasurprised to see .png in scalable... ;)16:34
VDVsxits a 64x6416:34
jebbacan i just plonk a supertux-26x26.png in debian/ dir?   (I come from .rpm land, sry...)16:34
VDVsxhumm ?16:35
jebbawell, if i don't have a 26x26, i make one in gimp, can I just put it in burgerspace-1.8.4/debian  ?16:36
jebbai mean just to build it16:36
VDVsxjebba, probably you don't need that one, IIRC16:36
VDVsxjebba, check the docs16:36
jebbaok, well there isnt a 48x48 either fwiw16:37
VDVsxthe 26x26 icon is used in the side bar in diablo, that doesn't exist anymore in frematle, so no need16:38
VDVsxI guess, better check16:38
jebbaok, blew that one out, putting 64x and 48x in debian/16:40
jebbaand scaleable/  which is 64x64 png16:41

VDVsxjebba, I can bet that .svg won't work since it uses GdkPixbufLoader, so there the reason for the .pngs there16:45
*** MrChick has joined #maemo-devel16:45
jebbaok.16:46
MrChickhi there. is there a way to get networking in the maemo application framework in the maemo sdk?16:46
jebbaok, looks by dpkg --contents the icons and .desktop are all ok. :)  I am *NOT* running  gtk-update-icon-cache /usr/share/icons/hicolor    because supertux didnt either.  Though this is mentioned in the docs.  OK?  (assuming docs old or something since it works for supertux)16:48
jebbaMrChick: it "just worked" for me, fwiw16:48
*** Acedip has quit IRC16:49
*** Acedip has joined #maemo-devel16:49
MrChickmh... i have the sdk-vm, in it i have networking. but in the app framework it doesn't work :/16:49
MrChickany idea what i could try to fix that?16:50
jebbaah, i see what you mean. not sure sry.16:51
MrChickk, thanks anyways :)16:52
jebbawoo hoo, we got icon in HAM16:55
jebbavery cute too hehe16:55
jebbaand Icon appears on desktop or whatever that's called (.desktop ok).    And launches perfect.   COOOL. thanks VDVsx.  The first one is a bit painful, but now i know WTF i'm doing to make applications actually appear. thx 100x  :)16:57
VDVsxjebba, supertux updates the cache for sure16:57
jebbaVDVsx: but not in rules from what i've seen.16:57
jebbai didnt add it and all ok.16:57
VDVsxjebba, postinstall script16:58

dwouldhey, I am just looking at adding auto-refresh to witter, and I've hit an issue which may be common... I want my background thread to sleep for a time, then call a refresh. This is in a loop which checks if the thread has been told to stop. but when the main program exits, the subthread continues until the time.sleep ends. but I don't want to poll all the time just to be quick at ending the thread at program end. Anything obvi21:48
dwouldI figured here was the place to ask, must be an issue for any threaded python app21:49
Jaffadwould: Is there a way of interrupting a thread's sleep? There is in Java (you get an InterruptedException from Thread.sleep())22:04
