bashirtripzero it looks likea great device01:41
timeless_mbpbashir: so, there is at least one big update coming01:41
tripzerobecause A, i doubt meego will replace anything anytime soon. B, there will likely be community provided updates for the n900, C, i can port stuff myself if i have to01:41
timeless_mbpand it's likely there's going to be another one after that01:41
timeless_mbpbut meego isn't likely to be relevant to any nokia hardware for a really long time01:41

Stskeepsslaine_: instead of beagle you would probably contact TI directly, but beagle is a good development board for prototyping12:16
Stskeepsor the zoom2 (more expensive)12:16
TachikomaI had the chance to compare a nexus one with the n900, that convinced me that I bought the right device. The only downside is the still missing commercial apps, but as far as i understand that more a problem of nokia getting their ovi crap working than of the device itself ...12:18
ali1234ovi works fine and has commercial apps. the problem is no one wants to develop to a moving target12:19
*** Naveen has joined #meego12:19
Tachikomaali1234: are you talking about ovi for n900 or ovi for symbian. I mean ovi for n900. You can count the commercial apps there with two hands ...12:20

ali1234Stskeeps: hell no12:22
ali1234Stskeeps: i might write one for none accelerated devices with 240x320 screen12:22
ali1234i've been threatening to make a ncurses dialing program for a while now12:23
ali1234might actually be possible with ofono12:23
Tachikomaali1234: well, maybe my expectations are beyond "candle" and that stuff. I looked in the ovi thing right now and really have a hard time finding anything usefull that is not oin some kind of demo level. At least compare to most things i installed from the extras repository...12:23
ali1234Tachikoma: right, it is empty. but not because nokia didn't finish it. it's empty because nobody knows if the n900 is even going to be worth it12:24
ali1234Tachikoma: by the time some commercial app gets finished reinventing the wheel, N900 will probably be unsupported and everyone will have a new phone with a different api12:25
ali1234Tachikoma: until we see some actual meego release we won't know12:25
ali1234Tachikoma: and that is why ovi is empty12:25
Tachikomaali1234: mh, it was empty before anything about meego was announced12:25
ali1234Tachikoma: maemo 6 was announced with a totally different API before N900 was even released12:26

villemvwell, you got internet on it, which === porn12:53
villemvthough web runtime apps for specific sites would help12:54
brikali1234: it might also help if it was easier to register as a dev and if they actually started replying to mails12:54
w00tthe real problem with ovi is that it's hard to register and impossible to get contact with them about anything (help to register or otherwise)12:54

villemvwell, that was quit short by inline asm13:24

ali1234thing is, i'm not actually trying to port anything. i just want to recompile all moblin 2.1 srpms without the SSSE3 requirement13:24
Stskeepsyou take an existing distro, load it into OBS, then build on top of that distro all your packages, and then build your distro on top of the packages you generated, freeing yourself of upstream13:24
villemvali1234: so did you get some errors then?13:25
ali1234Stskeeps: i can't see any way to load a distro into OBS, i only get a choice of a specific set of build repositories, none of which is moblin13:25
Stskeepsali1234: fwiw you can probably do this trick on the public OBS13:25
Stskeepsand add your own packages13:25
ali1234i can't even see a sane way to add packages13:25
Stskeepsali1234: yes, and in 'advanced' you can indicate your own build repos13:25
ali1234Stskeeps: no, you can't all you can do is select an existing repo and give it a new name13:26

slaine_unfortunately, lots of the moblin src.rpms wouldn't build on moblin, you needed to make them via the obs13:28
slaine_http://moblin.org/documentation/building-moblin-packages-natively13:28
slaine_I never got back to it13:29
ali1234ah, well, that would be the problem then, i'm building in a moblin chroot13:29

ali1234so moblin isn't even self hosting...13:29

ali1234pretty lame13:29

ali1234the rebuilt rpms never get used for future builds, and i have no dependency resolution to allow it13:40

slaine_I at least tried that, didn't work off the bat, didn't have time to figure out why13:42
ali1234although i suspect if i say "--target i386" it is going to say "sorry i don't have packages for that"13:42
slaine_iirc, it complained about missint spec files13:42
slaine_586 isn't where the SSE3 came from, I think it was based on some CFLAGS that where either part of the env or exported in the rpm macros13:43

ali1234Tachikoma: yes but it is a totally arbitrary limitation13:47

ali1234Tachikoma: (unless they put in loads of inline asm)13:47
ali1234RST38h: yes, it does13:47

Tachikomaali1234: well, somehow I guess they would have tried to enforce it, using inline asm seems a way to do so ...13:48
sharpneliali1234: atom has SSE3. You want moblin for older x86 processors? I think due to atom it's quite understandable why they dont bother making the system work without sse313:48

Corsacthe hw requirements were because they intended to use NX bit, afair13:51
*** milliams has joined #meego13:51
Corsacthat means, security reasons (data pages not marked as exeuctables)13:51
Corsacexecutables, even13:51
*** Terje1 has quit IRC13:51
Corsacbut I don't see why this should be enforced at the source level, though :)13:51
Corsac(and indeed it's not where the problem lie, is it?)13:52
ali1234it isn't13:52
ali1234the problem lies in the fact that a moblin chroot cannot compile all moblin rpms13:52
RST38hCorsac: NX bit appeared somewhere in Prescotts and it has nothing to do with Atoms or SSSE313:53
ali1234at least not without hacking around13:53
CorsacRST38h: tbh I wasn't even speaking about sse3 but about hw requirements13:53
ali1234and, at least for moblin 2.1, the curerent release13:53
RST38hOh ok13:53
RST38hBut NX is pretty widespread, and it is optional anyway13:53
*** wind-rider has joined #meego13:53
CorsacRST38h: /but/ it might be that they targetted something more recent to be sure NX was present13:53
RST38has I said, Prescott.13:53
ali1234SSSE3 was used because it is much faster than x87 floating point13:54
ali1234which is fair enough13:54
sharpneliMaybe there are lot of algorithms there written requiring the sse3 includes. And no-one bothers to write them twice.13:54
ali1234but there is supposedly no technical reason it can't be recompiled for other arch13:54
ali1234you just can't do it without OBS13:55
Corsacali1234: did you document your work so other people can try?13:55
ali1234Corsac: yes13:55
Corsacmind giving me the url?13:55
Corsac:)13:55
slaine_They used SSSE3 as they claimed it gave them a 15-20% improvement with graphical applications13:55

Corsacproblem with that announcement is that it basically stopped everything else until people know more15:18
X-FadeCorsac: It would have been better to publish a timeframe, yes.15:19
slaine_Corsac: ali1234 MIC doesn't do everything15:19
ali1234slaine_: it takes a bunch of binary rpms and makes them into a bootable image...15:20
ali1234slaine_: but since we didn't get as far as building all RPMs yet, i didn't even try it, so it isn't in my log15:20
slaine_well, yes, but it doesn't make the binary rpms, which is what Corsac was referring to I think15:20
Corsacyeah but I was more speaking about a script/tool which would take a config file in input and give an image at output :)15:20
RST38hX-Fade: My crystal balls say they will roll out the details and the first code delivery around March 2-515:21
RST38hX-Fade: i.e. will time it to CeBIT15:21
CorsacRST38h: you have crystal balls?15:21
RST38hCorsac: You didn't know?15:21
ali1234Corsac: yeah and MIC is that tool but it needs you to supply it with binary RPMs too15:21
CorsacRST38h: I usually don't look there15:21
X-FadeRST38h: You can create pretty slides and displays without going into the technical details :)15:21
ali1234which is the sticking point, we can't build them, so all we can do is build the same image as on moblin.org15:21

thiagoRST38h: hopefully not :-)15:24
ali1234slaine_: build does too15:24
thiagoRST38h: I'd rather something like MADDE15:24
ali1234slaine_: build and mock are practically the same tool reimplemented15:24
RST38hthiago: But, I mean, given that OBS appears to be some server based tool for remote building...15:24
thiagoRST38h: that's not SDK. That's distro building.15:24
RST38hthiago: This leaves us with SB (or hopefully SB2) and Madde15:24
ali1234RST38h: OBS isn't just for remote building. it's just that you need a login even if you want to use it locally15:24
thiagoRST38h: once you have the package done, you submit it to the integration system.15:25
ali1234RST38h: it's kind of like if you need a login on MSDN to be able to use visual studio...15:25
RST38hali1234: I.e., it's a made for servers15:25
thiagoRST38h: but before you get there, you need to develop the application. That's where the SDK comes in.15:25
* RST38h does not need to login to MSDN to use Visual Studio15:25

thiagoI develop Qt for Maemo 5 by typing "make" on my Mandriva x8615:30
RST38hthiago: Just typing "make" will compile me a package for i386 Ubuntu15:30
thiagoRST38h: not if you configured it for cross-compilation first.15:31
TachikomaI guess you have to setup crosscompiling15:31
thiagoRST38h: or if you're using a Qt version that was cross-compiled.15:31
Tachikomawhich is documented where exactly? ;)15:31
ali1234thiago: how will i compile a package for meego-arm without an internet connection and without compiling it on actual hardware? what SDK solution will be provided by meego to enable this use case?15:31
thiagoali1234: the SDK solution is not defined15:31
rwhitbyask how one cross-compiles emacs (or something else that needs to run the cross-compiled object as part of the build process) without something like sb215:31
thiagobut will probably be based on Qt, which means you just need to do qmake && make15:31
slaine_nor is the toolchain15:31
RST38hthiago: Ok, then how do I configure it for cross compilation?15:31
thiagoRST38h: qmake (if it's a Qt app)15:32
thiagoRST38h: if it's not qmake-based, then use whatever means the tool provides for cross-compilation15:32

RST38hthiago: Oh but even a proper OE-styled toolchain is not there yet? Even for i386?15:37
thiagoRST38h: you don't need cross-compilation for i386 :-)15:37
thiagoRST38h: but no, it's not there.15:37
thiagowe're working on it15:37
RST38hthiago: I still need to link to the right libs, so still need a different toolchain15:38
ali1234RST38h: for i386 you can just use a chroot. as long as you don't want to recompile actual moblin packages15:38
thiagoright15:38
thiagoRST38h: you need the libraries and the toolchain, even if it's not cross-compilation.15:38
thiagothe problem is that, right now, the Moblin SDK is Moblin itself. You install it in a VM and compile inside it.15:38
* lbt_ looks back at the FUD for OBS...15:38

lbt_ali1234: stfu :)15:39
RST38hlbt: the way ali describes it, it is server-only, you just run server locally15:39
ali1234lbt_: so how do i run it without a server?15:39
thiagoyou simply select on Creator "I want to build now for MeeGo x86" and it will do it for you.15:39
* RST38h not sure WinCE and iPhone are good analogies here15:39
lbt_RST38h: he seems to be an anti-novell troll15:39
thiagoRST38h: they're our benchmarks.15:39
RST38hthiago: Please note that I, personally, do not use Creator15:40
thiagoRST38h: you can use the toolchain outside Creator, of course.15:40
RST38hthiago: Got a simple X11-bound app that I compile by typing make15:40
thiagoRST38h: even if you're using Qt15:40
lbt_for local building, consider OBS to be a chroot creator15:40
thiagoRST38h: hopefully it will be basically just changing $(CC) in your Makefile15:40
thiagowell, that's the root of the change15:40
RST38hlbt: If it is indeed a chroot thing, that would be nice15:41
lbt_to make a Moblin package you do : osc co Moblin:Trunk $pkg; osc build15:41
lbt_that's it15:41
thiagoif your app compiles and runs a tool during its build, it needs to know about $(HOSTCC) too15:41
RST38hthiago: $(CC) and $(LD) and $(CPP)15:41
thiagoif it does configure-time checks (like autoconf), it needs to learn how to do cross-compilation checks.15:41
thiagoRST38h: right, of course.15:41
RST38hthiao: ok, this stuff will work for me, I am already using it with the OE toolchains15:41
lbt_thiago: or you could have it all taken care off for you15:41
lbt_RST38h: in which case you'll be reinventing the wheel15:42
thiagolbt_: not really. How is anything going to automatically detect that toolA needs to be host, while toolB should be ARM?15:42

lbt_it was hard15:42
jebbaFWIW, i just asked in #fedora-devel and mock won't just crosscompile for ARM on intel host magickally... that woulda been nice....15:42
lbt_but we did it15:42
*** zaheer__ is now known as zaheerm15:42
thiagolbt_: automatically?15:43
thiagolbt_: is there human intervention?15:43
lbt_essentially thiago we start with a pure emulated qemu15:43
thiagostop. No CPU emulation.15:43
thiagowhat is run during build should be host-compiled.15:43
thiagowhat is installed should be cross-compiled.15:43
lbt_we allow that too15:43
thiagoif it is both run and installed, it should be compiled twice.15:43
lbt_we allow certain builders to be arm15:43
*** felipec has quit IRC15:44
lbt_however, we *do* build a lot using qemu emulation15:44
RST38hlbt:15:44
thiagothe difference between a Qt cross-compiled build and an emulated build is in the order of hours15:44
thiagofrom a couple to over 10 hours.15:44
lbt_thiago: I know I do it15:44
Stskeepsuser level emulation, not system emulation, just fwiw15:44
lbt_I cross-compile Qt - it was my testcase15:44
RST38happlication level, it is called15:44
lbt_good point Stskeeps15:44
thiagolbt_: however, like I said, I do expect that to exist.15:45
thiagoI jsut don't expect it to be in the main SDK.15:45
thiagothe main SDK should do no CPU emulation.15:45
lbt_it exists in OBS15:45
lbt_which auto installs it for you15:45
Stskeepsthiago: main SDK is qt-only, is it not?15:45
RST38hthiago: I am afraid it will have to15:45
thiagoright, for platform build, and for the complex Linux packages that don't do proper cross-compilation.15:45
thiagoStskeeps: yes.15:45
thiagoRST38h: no, I don't think it will have to.15:45
RST38hthiago: Better plan for it now than find out the hard way in 2-3 months15:45
Stskeepsthiago: right, this topic is for things that don't cross compile easily15:45
thiagoStskeeps: that doesn't mean you can't use it for building non-Qt apps.15:46
Stskeepswhich is non-qt stuff15:46
Stskeepsthiago: of course :)15:46
thiagobut my whole point is that the main SDK doesn't need to address that.15:46
thiagoit will have to be addressed, eventually, of course.15:46
RST38hthiago: Here is the problem you are gonna hit (and Nokia seemingly hit it already)15:46
RST38hthiago: Once you throw the doors open, all kinds of developers will flow in. Just a relatively small part of them will be Qt app developers.15:47
RST38hthiago: About the same percentage will be GTK+ devs some of whom will be diehards15:47
thiagoRST38h: true15:47
RST38hthiago: They will immediately bitch about lack of proper Gtk+ support in the SDK15:47
lbt_thiago: http://wiki.maemo.org/Mer/Build/Cross_Build15:47
thiagobut the point is that we're trying to attract Qt-based developers, who will use Qt Creator and the main SDK.15:47
RST38h"promised" by Nokia btw15:47
thiagowe don't need to burden those with the tools from others15:47
thiagobut point taken15:48
thiagoRST38h: promised?15:48
RST38hthiago: The point is that you can't disregard all developers but Qt ones15:48
lbt_thiago: that approach builds all of Mer (and I found out this am, the N900/mer kernel)15:48
timjiang_I use QT eclipse instead of Qt Creator.15:48
RST38hthiago: Yes, there was a promise that GtK+ still stays in Maemo6, just not being officially supported15:48
thiagoRST38h: Gtk+ will be community-supported15:48
Stskeepsisn't the problem that we are speaking two different languages atm?15:48
RST38hthiago: But this is not all yet. Let us screw Gtk+ for now15:48
RST38hthiago: Not if you cannot easily build Gtk+ apps from the official SDK15:49
Stskeepsone is for the application developer targetting Qt and MeeGo APIs, another is for building all things in a system15:49
thiagothe level of support it will have is entirely dependent on the community.15:49
*** Sulamita has joined #meego15:49
RST38hthiago: Consider all these scripting language people, the ones who compile python, perl, tcl, even gcc for native armel arch15:49
Stskeepssecond one can build the first kind of apps, even cross-compile it fast (OBS, _cross), first one can only build Qt apps/libs (MADDE, etc)15:49
RST38hthiago: They will not be able to do their work with your official SDK if it does not support emulation15:50
thiagoRST38h: why do they want to compile Python and/or Perl?15:50

Stskeepsgod, we really need more information about MeeGo in here..15:52

RST38hthiago: So, you will get a crowd of disappointed developers at the gates who expected to find a complete development kit and found a bunch of config files for Qt Creator instead15:52
lbt_Corsac: key? no. Login, yes15:52
StskeepsRST38h: which will go for a Platform SDK instead.15:52
lizardoRST38h: for developers,  you will just need to install this "application SDK"  (together with the  "default" Qt application SDK, if you want to use PySide for instance)  to develop python applications15:52
Corsaclbt_: that's weird, do you know why it's needed for?15:52

jebbait's all flying by so fast. How does OBS build for ARM? Crosscompiling or with qemu-arm?15:58
lbt_np15:58
RST38hthiago: Not sure if anyone thought of it, but there will be companies willing to run Maeblin on CPUs that are not Atom or OMAP315:58
lbt_jebba: qemu arm15:58
RST38hthiago: Usually, small Chinese companies producing low-cost gadgets15:58
lbt_jebba: *BUT*15:58
Stskeepsjebba: qemu-arm, user level emulated, plus what lbt is about to explain15:59
Stskeeps:P15:59
lbt_with an sbox-like twist for a *TINY* set of build tools15:59
thiagoRST38h: right, but they can do "make world" for themselves15:59
RST38hthiago: So, expect Snapdragon, iMX31/iMX51, tegra, and even some MIPS15:59
jebbaya, cuz that will likely be a dog inside of a xen instance (e.g. amazon ec2=15:59
lbt_jebba: *WHICH USE THE SAME SOURCE AS THE NON-CROSS TOOLS*15:59
lbt_jebba: nope15:59
thiagoRST38h: anyway, those questions have not been answered.16:00
RST38hthiago: Has anyone made sure they *can* "make world" from the current code base and get a working system?16:00
jebbaok good  ;)16:00
lbt_because 80%+ of the build is double-cross-compiled16:00
StskeepsRST38h: OBS will help that immensely, trust me :P16:00
thiagoRST38h: current? probably not. Future? We'll see.16:00
thiagoRST38h: I'm at least writing down the questions so that they get asked.16:00
thiagoI can't promise the answer will satisfy you, though.16:00
thiagolike no Gtk+ or CPU emulation in the official SDK.16:00
RST38hthiago: This of course depends on whether you want Maeblin to spread outside Nokia/Intel alliance16:00
ShadowJKWould be cool if moblin ran on Stallman's MIPS laptop ;-)16:01
RST38hthiago: Again, me, personally, is perfectly satisfied with OE-style toolchain16:01
thiagowe do, of course, but we want people to use Qt.16:01
RST38h$(CC) etc16:01
Stskeepsthiago: official sdk will basically be qt creator + MADDE like stuff to build for ARM?16:01
jebbastallman's mips laptop is pretty dog slow....16:01
RST38hthiago: Qt is just a layer of icing on top. They will use Qt.16:01

*** dpino has quit IRC16:02
thiagoanyway, we cross-compile Qt for MIPS and for PowerPC. So if you have a suitable toolchain, it should work.16:02
thiagothe problem is when people have bad toolchains, which they often do16:03
thiagoI was having a discussion in #qt-labs about an hour ago on the use of pkg-config16:03
thiagothe official way to use gstreamer, for example, is to detect it via pkg-config. Right?16:03
Stskeepsright16:03
RST38hthiago: that is the official way for everything16:03
*** niqt has quit IRC16:04
thiagook, so we start with the problem that the latest official release of pkg-config (0.23) has a bug that makes cross-compilation impossible16:04
thiagoit simply doesn't work once you set PKG_CONFIG_SYSROOT_DIR16:04
thiagothere's a patch applied to pkg-config mainline, which many distros carry, but it's not in any release (the patch is only 2 years old)16:04
Stskeepsi assume you mean non-scratchbox like cross-compilation16:04
thiagothen the next problem is that many toolchains simply don't ship the .pc files16:04
RST38hScarier thing is that Maemo documentation seems to imply that autoconf is the standard way16:04

GeneralAntillesActually, the biggest problem was that it wasn't optified. :P17:51
ShadowJKIt's optified now17:51
ShadowJKAnd it's from december or so.. there might be maybe 10% speedup on h264 since then overall... and ffmpeg's aac decoder gained some major speed boosts..17:53
GeneralAntillesCool17:53
ShadowJKffmpeg's guru went on a h264 micro-optimization spree..17:54
ShadowJKI haven't benchmarked it though, so 10% is just purely guessing17:54
ShadowJKlots of 0.5% speedup in special case X17:54
ShadowJKmight add up to some real boost eventually ;)17:55
RST38hProlly not17:56
RST38hDepends on the architecture too17:56
ShadowJKAnyway, this "720p" and "1080p" buzzwords are so useless. People assume "h264 high profile at 60 fps zomg", when in reality it might be ASP @ 24fps17:56
RST38hNeon on ARM, SSSSSSSSEx on Atom17:56
ShadowJKFrom what I've seen of the work done the last months it's been restrucuring the higher level C code17:57
Scelt_last http 1017:58
ShadowJKMy Atom 330 can handle about 720p h264 main profile..17:58

jebbaanyone know offhand a link to the "why we are just bootstrapping and not being a downstream distro" question?19:36
arjanjebba: sure...19:37
Stskeepswell, part is that for a proper mobile distro, you need to molest the system a fair bit19:37
th0br0jebba: http://meego.com/about/faq19:37
th0br0 Is MeeGo based on another distribution (like Fedora or Debian)?19:37
th0br0    No. Meego is its own independent distribution, run as an open source project. In that sense you can consider MeeGo an upstream distribution, that itself pulls from the upstream of the various open source projects it is based on.19:37
arjanto be able to do things we want to do we end up building the basic OS from scratch19:38
arjanand that's about mobile/client/etc19:38
th0br0or jebba http://wiki.meego.com/Packaging --> upstream19:38
jebbaya, i was hoping for link/info to pass on to fedora-arm list19:38
th0br0that's likely what you're looking for19:38
arjanat least on the moblin side we've been there done that (Moblin 1 on ubuntu) and learned the hard way, and moblin 2.x is its own upstream distro19:38
arjanand because of that we could do the things we wanted to do19:39
arjanjebba: I know both Fedora and Debian would like us to be their downstream, but it just does not work that way19:39
arjanbeen there done that19:39
Votantoo limiting ?19:40
Votanor too time consuming to work with what u get instead of doing it all by urself?19:40

kebaxso thats how meego will be an independent distro19:50

jebbaCosmoHill, ya apt-rpm (apt4rpm?).    On Fedora 12, for example:  `yum -y install apt && apt-get update && apt-get install foo`         For years I happily used apt-get on fedora-based systems.20:30
CosmoHillhmm20:30
Stskeepsi actually think specs look simpler to work with, heh20:30
jebbaStskeeps: oh ya, i really prefer specs actually. Multiple binary sources much easier.  I was *shocked* when I had to convert .pngs into .xpms just to add an icon to the package (part of that being due to maemo using legacy debian build tools like debhelper5)20:31
CosmoHilljebba: ooo20:32
RST38h[sticking his head from the hole] XPMs? Feora still uses XPMs?20:32
CosmoHilli like that you can easily make multiple packages from one spec file20:32
jebbaRST38h: no, for .debs20:32
*** Terje1 has quit IRC20:33
th0br0bbl20:33
Stskeepsjebba: to continue down the technical road, f12 arm is interesting cos it's armv5te20:34
jebbaLike in  foo.spec you can just add a line  Source:  foo-1.2.3.tar.gz  for the main tarball. Then if you want to add something like a little icon for .desktop or somesuch, you just do Source1: foo.png and it drags that in so you can copy it where .desktop will see it.   In debhelper5 (afaict), there was no way to include an extra .png in the .diff, since it was binary.  (Disclaimer: i'm somewhat noob on building .deb)20:34
arjanlbt: btw we have tools that notify people when upstream made a new release20:34

*** crysaz has joined #meego20:37
jebbawell, things don't have to start from absolute scratch though. I imagine lots will be seeded from fedora .specs  (or maybe suse .specs??).  The one drawback is that suse/fedora/mandrake .spec files use lots of different macros.  It's not always that easy to just grab a mandrake .spec and build it for fedora, for example.20:37
arjanlbt: having worked for linux distros for... 8 years now I suppose.... I think you're overestimating that QA and integration part ;)20:37
lbton now Stskeeps20:37
lbtarjan: heh20:37
arjanjebba: we have tools to autopackage basically "good behaving" upstream stuff20:37
lbtI'll be happy when I see CPAN on meego20:37
jebbaarjan: will the macros be more fedoraish or mandrakeish or ???20:37
jebbaya, but there are so many "bad behaving" upstreams... ;)20:38
arjanlbt: I am 100% in favor of having a good CPAN->meego tool flow, so that the actual packaging is a noop for that20:38
aukedito20:38
lbtOK - that is the kind of richness I want to have available to devs20:38
arjanlbt: I rather spend time on a tool that makes that easy rather than spending time on 5000 little perl CPANs each20:38
lbtand having statements that support that level of commitment is good20:38
lbtarjan: yes20:39
*** zumbi_ has quit IRC20:39
lbtdebian has a good one20:39
jebbae.g.  "make %{?_smp_mflags}"  on fedora versus "make -j{somefoo i dont remember" on suse, etc.20:39
lbtand I'm sure the logic can be analysed and re-used20:39
arjan(not diminishing the value of those 5000 litte CPANs... but I do diminish the value of packaging each by hand)20:39
Corsacyeah, there's the dh-make-perl or something20:39
lbtnod20:39
arjanjebba: if you end up caring on that level you're one level too deep in the general case ;-)20:39
lbtI also like the dh-* concept20:39
lbtand feel that, design wise, that would be worth looking very closely at20:40
Corsacand dh plugins are a nice addition20:40
*** slaxium has quit IRC20:40
jebbaarjan, well, basically mandrake/fedora/suse all have different macros that they use in the .specs.  MeeGo is going to have to go with one of them or start a new set of macros. Probably easiest to be mostly compatible with one of them so you can drag in all their .specs just to hit the ground running.  You can't take a mandrake .spec and have it "just work" in fedora.20:41
*** BluesLee has quit IRC20:41
arjanjebba: moblin has its own set20:41
lbtjebba: yes, that's another kind of decision I'd like to see20:41
arjanbut in general, it's all very minimal20:41
lbtarjan: so we at least need some support to convert them20:41
arjanyou don't notice such macros if you use the autopackaging tools btw20:42
arjanalso, generally, once you use too many macros you're doing it wrong20:42
jebbaarjan, uh, every fedora package uses macros.20:42
jebbaand mandrake, and suse.20:42
arjanjebba: there is a basic set that you use, sure.20:42
Corsacnot exactly sure reinventing packaging good practices is really that useful though20:42
jebbaand they are incompatible.20:42
arjanjebba: the common ones tend to not be in general20:43
arjanwith rpm 4.8 they standardized a lot of this stuff again20:43
*** florian has quit IRC20:43

sivangjebba: automatic CamelCase is a rock22:36
jebbawhatever22:36
sivangjebba: e.g. creating links from CamelCase22:36
jebbathat's a very small gain22:36
sivangjebba: which for me means I can think up while I write, and then click the camel cased links and write up a drill down22:37
sivangjebba: this was monumental for me to start up the doc team at Ubuntu22:37
mikhasI lik the CamelCase links22:37
sivangjebba: "Design as you type"22:37
mikhas*like22:37
mikhasbetter than mediawiki, much better22:37
sivangin my taste, at least.22:37
*** ljp_ has quit IRC22:37
sivangbut let's see what people think22:37
jebbainstead of just [[CamelCase]]...   But think of how many more people already know mediawiki syntax.  I groan when I have to learn some new syntax just to edit somoene's wiki.  Very small upside...22:38
mikhasmediawiki syntax can be quickly forgotten22:38
sivangjebba: not much to know in MoinMoin (read: WYSIWYG)22:38
mikhasbecause it's so rubbish22:38
jebbasivang: well, that one link you sent to the list sure as hell isn't going to convince meego to switch over, sorry to say.22:38
* CosmoHill isn't on facebook22:38
mikhasMoinMoin has docbook export22:39
jebbawell, looking at that comparison page ( http://moinmo.in/MoinMoinVsMediaWiki ) they aren't *that* different, just different enough.22:39
mikhasthat should do it22:39
GeneralAntillesWe've got a whole team of people who know and use MediaWiki22:39
sivangjebba: probably not, which is a shame, PHP tools are nice, but they're lack of systemic thinking starts to bite quite early.22:39
jebbawell, i've used a site or two which seems to show that mediawiki has been adequate.....22:39
GeneralAntillesWe've also got a whole range of doc tools for Nokia that target MediaWiki.22:39
sivangjebba: it's good, but MoinMoin is better.22:39
GeneralAntillesSo unless you have some really compelling reasons why MoinMoin would be better. . . .22:39
sivangGeneralAntilles: yeah, I know from the thread.22:40
mikhas"I've used two computers w/ CDE which seems to show to me that CDE has been adequate"22:40
jebbasivang: marginally better, if that. It's gotta be a *lot* better....22:40

sivangGeneralAntilles: think "lower barrier for entry"22:41
jebbaexactly, and for the users, that's mediawiki.22:41
GeneralAntillessivang, yeah, the lower barrier is all of the people who already dabble in wikipedia. :)22:41
sivangGeneralAntilles: so you're saying the same folks who do wikipedia will come and write docs for MeeGO ?22:41
mikhashttp://moinmo.in/DocBook22:41
jebbasivang: uh, ya.22:41
mikhasa very compelling argument22:41
mikhaswiki contents could come from different kind of sources22:42
GeneralAntillessivang, I'm saying that there are lots of people in communities with experience in MediaWiki.22:42
sivangmikhas: ah forgot, so in Ubuntu some of the docs were generated right off the wiki22:42
sivangso we could have the phone brochoures or paper intro auto generated from the wiki22:42
jebbadocbook would be nice. I briefly considered doing a mediawiki to latex converter which would rule, but it would be sooooo boring to write.22:42
sivangoh, and ACLs22:42
sivangjebba: don't reinvent, reuse!22:42
GeneralAntillesjebba, comparison pages on the official website are always oh so unbiased. ;)22:43
GeneralAntillessivang, yeah, Nokia already has tooling to do that. :)22:43
lbtmediawiki is better known. The poor sad muppets on tmo are learning mw syntax. I say switch to MoinMoin to start a flame war...22:43
jebbawhat surprised me is the comparision basically didn't show *too* much differences at all.22:43
sivanglbt: hehe, okay I back off.22:43
sivangwhat is TMO ?22:43
GeneralAntillesjebba, and most of the comparison points seem totally irrelevant to me.22:43
jebbatalk.maemo.org22:43
jebbaGeneralAntilles: agreed.  ...22:43
lbttmo is where most of the non-tech maemo community hang out22:44
sivangand it is MW syntax powered?22:44
lbtand there are a lot of them22:44
jebbaone drawback to mediawiki is it doesnt go over to print very nicely.22:44
sivangjebba: but nokia has tooling for that!22:44
