This is a bit desperate, but any chance that the package can be improved with the attached debdiff? This will make a very significant improvement to the end-user experience and avoid numerous bug complaints. The changes are: + * Add libruby-hpricot dependency -- otherwise the Amazon provider which handles the main functionality doesn't work out of the box. + * Change order of Amazon provider (fixed upstream) -- so that Amazon will be searched first + * Fix crashing bug with tooltips -- if a piece of metadata was missing the program would crash when user moused over the affected book My sincere apologies for waiting so long; I had thought FinalFreeze was absolute and was focused on making a package for inclusion in ubuntu- backports. Again, these changes will make a huge difference, especially in light of the LTS. I promise that in the future Alexandria project will be on time and contribute through upstream Debian :) ** Attachment added: alexandria.debdiff http://launchpadlibrarian.net/13465291/alexandria.debdiff -- [sync-request] Please sync alexandria 0.6.2 from the alexandria-team PPA https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/191905 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Does it help to say that the packaging has been taken over by the project maintainers, since the old maintainer left? And that the debian directory is integrated into svn now? Responding to Daniel Holbach: Lots of changes have been made in the packaging: - dropped changelog entries, We switched to an automatic read-out of `svn log`. - changed maintainer As mentioned the old maintainer left, but now the project leads are the packagers. - added generated postinst/postrm/prerm? Yes, we did a one-time generation of postinst/postrm/prerm. Is this against policy? - dropped watch file, dropped menu file, dropped manpage There is a manpage in the package. We think that menu files are possibly deprecated? And added watch file to r905. We plan to release 0.6.3 immediately, to clean out our numbers, and we'll make a new package off that.

Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-settings-daemon Whenever I plugin an external flatscreen TV CPU use goes up, the mouse jumps around and performance becomes jerky.

[Bug 339228] Re: gnome-settings-daemon and gnome-display-properties slow down xserver when external monitor added
I've attached two files, coldplug.txt where gnome-settings-daemon --debug --no-daemon is run while the monitor is plugged in, and hotplug.txt, where I unplugged the monitor, ran g-s-d, plugged in the monitor and used xrandr --output TMSD-1 --mode 1920x1080 to activate the monitor. xrandr --auto causes the screen to go black momentarily, similar to the initial moments with g-s-d when brief flashes of the screen can be seen in-between blue or black screens. ** Attachment added: hotplug.txt http://launchpadlibrarian.net/23678028/hotplug.txt -- gnome-settings-daemon and gnome-display-properties slow down xserver when external monitor added https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/339228 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 339228] Re: gnome-settings-daemon and gnome-display-properties slow down xserver when external monitor added
CPU jumps up past 50% on the System Monitor graph with both g-s-d and gnome-display-properties (top claims +60% CPU usage for Xorg). I used glxgears below. I'm not sure how I would test with xrandr. xrandr --auto just takes a second and there's no spike on the cpu history. By running xrandr repeatedly maybe there's a slight increase in activity, but nothing over 50% CPU. glxgears before and after g-s-d met...@discourse:~$ glxgears get fences failed: -1 param: 6, val: 0 302 frames in 5.0 seconds = 60.187 FPS 301 frames in 5.0 seconds = 60.119 FPS 301 frames in 5.0 seconds = 59.954 FPS ^C met...@discourse:~$ gnome-settings-daemon --debug --no-daemon [1] 9295 snip met...@discourse:~$ glxgears get fences failed: -1 param: 6, val: 0 20 frames in 5.3 seconds = 3.771 FPS 17 frames in 5.3 seconds = 3.196 FPS 20 frames in 5.2 seconds = 3.877 FPS glxgears after gnome-display-properties met...@discourse:~$ bg 1 [1]+ gnome-display-properties met...@discourse:~$ glxgears get fences failed: -1 param: 6, val: 0 26 frames in 5.2 seconds = 5.017 FPS 34 frames in 5.4 seconds = 6.310 FPS 31 frames in 5.2 seconds = 5.933 FPS -- gnome-settings-daemon and gnome-display-properties slow down xserver when external monitor added https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/339228 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 145267] Re: Add rubygems bin to PATH
FYI, I started a discussion on the Debian bug tracker: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=403407 I think Neil has an interesting idea about gradually integrating Rubygems with Debian. Debian Rubygems users would actually appreciate this. For example, IIRC Rails requires a sqlite3-ruby gem which needs the headers to compile. Much easier to just use the deb package for libsqlite3-ruby. As a farther-out prospect, an Ubuntu-specific Rubygems could intelligently install the sqlite3 package, detecting that the deb version matches what's required by the gem. This raises the question of whether we should even have Rubygems. The reason we should say yes is that Rubygems is a cross-platform packaging system. Gems have to install on MacOS and Windows, and Ruby development is targeted to the gems. On those other systems it's necessary to install all the headers before installing the related gems (many of them are provided on the MacOS Developer CD). So Debian Rubygems could be a *better* Rubygems. As Neil mentioned this couldn't happen immediately. I still wonder, though, whether the relevant paradigm isn't build tools, or even rm. Debian can't stop you from hosing your system as long as you can install from source. If files are installed into /usr/local at least the user can delete everything under /usr/local/lib and /usr/local/share to get back to a stable system. -- Add rubygems bin to PATH https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/145267 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 145267] Re: Add rubygems bin to PATH
I'd like to file a bug against the communication in this report. Also, there is a caesura at the end leading to a breakup that is hard to follow. Actually, here's an explanation to save others time: 1. Neil Wilson uploads a package 2. Lucas Nussbaum and Scott Kitterman and others disagree with details about the packaging 3. They discuss it in ubuntu-devel here: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2008-August/026212.html 4. A bug is filed against the uploaded package by Scott Kitterman: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libgems-ruby/+bug/262063 5. The uploaded package is reverted by the powers that be 6. The problem will not be fixed this cycle :( As Scott Kitterman says above, there could be a long useless discussion about who is being more arrogant or dense or passive-aggressive. In general I see a lot of confusion about priorities in the Debian packaging system, as well as some pervasive confusion about the relationship of Debian policy to the *two different packaging systems* (I think Lucas Nussbaum and Neil Wilson both understood the precise issues, but some others got confused). The best thing to do is start planning for the next cycle on this, especially to make certain process decisions and get certain clarifications and commitments now. I would suggest: 0. Clarify that don't use gems isn't a solution. Gems are used for different reasons than Deb packages. 1. Clarify that Debian policy affects the installation of the rubygems files, but not the installation of gem files by rubygems. 2. Clarify that Debian policy frowns on installing _any_ rubygems files (that is, files carried by the Apt package) into /usr/local/ AND that there is a resistance to simply adding /var/lib/gems/1.{8,9}/bin to the path. The first is clear but not done by any proposed Rubygems Deb package (right?). The argument for the second is that gem binaries could then supercede system binaries. We need to clarify whether this is really beyond the pale, since the decision to install a gem is an administrator decision, not a user decision. In other words, installing a gem is equivalent to installing a source package except that gems allow for quick uninstall. 3. Commit that *if* Debian rejects movement toward a solution, Ubuntu _can_ maintain its own solution. 4. Clarify what if any changes are required/suggested for upstream 5. Commit that *if* upstream is unresponsive or uninterested, Ubuntu _can_ maintain its own patches. I'd like to help make this happen for the next cycle and to get a package candidate released into a PPA that Intrepid users can be directed to. -- Add rubygems bin to PATH https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/145267 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 262063] Re: rubygems bin in PATH potentially breaks other applications and violates all sense of decency in packaging.
I can't freaking believe we're going to go another cycle with a broken Rubygems. The sad thing is that Ruby has a very creative and productive developer community that is staying on or moving to MacOS because it's so easy to get into Linux-y Ruby development there. Rubygems comes with Leopard! Apple is actively targeting Ruby and Python open source developers. One misunderstanding about Rubygems in these reports is that Rubygems is *not* used for system scripts (I mean, as a rule). It's used to keep track of extremely quick-moving distributed development that's pulled together for web applications (again, as a rule). Nobody would ever dream of using a gem as a requirement in a Deb package. They would do the right thing and package up the library for Apt. That's not the issue here. Rubygems is a tool for keeping pace with the world of Ruby development, which proceeds much faster than a distro packaging process. One horrible irony in all this is that at least until recently the most recent source package for Rubygems is actually broken on Ubuntu systems. You have to manually edit a file to include a require statement presumably because of a difference in the Ruby Debian package from the standard upstream distribution. This is what a Deb package is supposed to do, work out all the little details and even take up slack for the upstream developers. Instead we get this. I'm pretty sure it loses users. -- rubygems bin in PATH potentially breaks other applications and violates all sense of decency in packaging. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/262063 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 77534] Re: Please update Ruby-Gnome2 to 0.16.0
On the contrary. I am the maintainer of the Alexandria project, and most of our bugs are related to 0.15.0 paired with Alexandria on Edgy. We receive many uninteresting backtraces that just say crashed as a result. Alexandria is much more stable when running with 0.16.0 from tarball. Actually, Alexandria is heavily tied into Glade, and many of the crashes indicate problems with 0.15.0 and this. The Alexandria project is ready to do a new release, and one of the things I have been waiting for is the 0.16.0 deb so that I can package Alexandria with this as a minimum dependency. -- Please update Ruby-Gnome2 to 0.16.0 https://launchpad.net/bugs/77534 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
