[13:17] <blindcoder> well, first, you don't "install" the bootdisk target, so I think that should be eliminated altogether
[13:17] <blindcoder> the rescue target is something I still don't understand completely so I refrain from saying something about it
[13:18] <blindcoder> NewPackage is a howto on installing new packages, so I guess that is in order
[13:18] <blindcoder> and RootOnLVM is something to be done during installation, so that should be given a second thought

[13:23] <blindcoder> th: I get your point now
[13:23] <th> good
[13:24] <blindcoder> th: so, what about having these groups then:

[13:24] <blindcoder> MaintaininganinstalledDistribution
[13:24] <blindcoder> meh
[13:24] <blindcoder> MaintainingAnInstalledDistribution
[13:24] <blindcoder> or HowToMaintain*
[13:25] <th> so you would put "InstallingAPackage" into "HowToMaintainAnInstalledDistribution"?
[13:25] <blindcoder> yes
[13:25] <blindcoder> because that's maintenance
[13:25] <th> is a maintenance section the section where you would first look if you want to know how to install a package?
[13:26] <blindcoder> probably not. alternatives?
[13:31] <blindcoder> th: I just tweaked a bit in the subwiki source
[13:31] <blindcoder> th: using [anytext] you can force anytext to be a wikiword
[13:32] <th> i'd say "Install" is the right word for both the distr. and the package
[13:32] <th> or...
[13:32] <th> a section called package management
[13:32] <th> then we should give a clear statement about that section in HowToInstall ("if you want to know how to install/remove/update a apckage go to PackageManagement)

[13:37] <blindcoder> 1. HowToInstall
[13:37] <blindcoder> 1.1 Distributions
[13:37] <blindcoder> 1.2 Packages
[13:37] <blindcoder> no
[13:37] <blindcoder> I guess PackageManagement would be fine
[13:41] <th> hmmm. dont know.
[13:42] <th> if 1.2 is PackageInstallation are we able to reuse this in PackageManagement section?
[13:44] <blindcoder> th: not at all, just a brain dump. Forget that I wrote it :)
[14:08] <blindcoder> okay, now why the fuck did thi glib23 build fail...
[14:08] <blindcoder> glibc23
[14:08] <blindcoder> it seems to have worked fine but still failed

[18:20] <blindcoder> hi
[18:20] ojh (~omer@65-103-65-117.eugn.qwest.net) joined #rocklinux.
[18:23] <ojh> I have a quick build question, how can I specify the order that packages build? For example I need to have both Python and the pyrexc binding generator compile before dbus or the Python bindings do not build.
[18:23] <blindcoder> ojh: the [P] tag in the .desc file is responsible for that
[18:23] <blindcoder> the smaller the two numbers, the earlier it will be built
[18:24] <ojh> THX
[18:24] <blindcoder> so 100.000 will be built before 200.000
[18:24] <ojh> IC
[18:24] <blindcoder> we might have to think up a new system once we reach the one millionth package, though :)
[18:24] <ojh> :D
[18:27] <ojh> A far as my 0install project is concerned I have achieved running the latest GIMP along with latest GTK and other deps from my 0install repository. So far that is the most complex program I have buildt as 0installed.
[18:32] <ojh> Another question: the base build builds both kernel 2.4.X and 2.6.X will packages that must be compiled against the kernel (lazyfs, nvidia) be built for both kernels or do special steps need to be taken?
[18:34] <blindcoder> actually, it builds only 2.6 these days, no?

[18:39] <blindcoder> ah
[18:39] <esden> with many new neat features ;)
[18:39] <blindcoder> does it blink?
[18:39] <blindcoder> does it have many buttons?
[18:39] <esden> yes it does
[18:39] <esden> it has 6 buttons
[18:39] <blindcoder> does... well... is it geeky, to make it short :)
[18:40] <blindcoder> bah, needs at least 4 more :D
[18:40] <esden> erm ... compared to thc it is not geeky ... because it has a purpose ;)
[18:40] <blindcoder> bah, stupid thing
[18:40] <blindcoder> noone needs something that blinks _and_ has a purpose
[18:40] <ojh> blindcoder: Where is the default specified in the Biuld process, I am build a custom set of ISOs and want to make sure that 2.6 is the default. (Yes a distribuation ;)  )
[18:41] <blindcoder> ojh: in the long list of package options there should be "Kernel options" quite at the beginning
[18:41] <esden> I think I will program breakout for svd ... so that it gets at least a bit of geekness ;)
[18:41] <blindcoder> esden: yeah, so the doctors have something to do while the patient is being examined :D
[18:41] <ojh> blindcoder: Do U have to be sure that it is set in both targets?
[18:42] <blindcoder> ojh: well, it's reset to its default value in a new configuration
[18:42] <blindcoder> you can also change the default in package/base/linux*/config*.in
[18:42] <blindcoder> (I think it's there)
[18:43] <ojh> blindcoder: :D Then it should just work on 2.0.3
