01:45.51luke-jr_treke: I did
01:46.14treke|homeodd
01:46.23luke-jr_I ended up using -b
01:46.33luke-jr_only to find current Svn broken =p
01:50.37kergothluke-jr_: let me guess. you set the preferred version to 'svn'?
01:50.40kergothsvn isnt the version.
01:50.44kergothits just part of the filename.
01:50.59kergoththe actual version is overridden inside the .bb itself. look at what it sets PV to.
01:51.12treke|homekergoth: can you think of anything that would odd about trying to use a file uri with PREMIRRORS?
01:51.14luke-jr_so that's why bitbake is so inefficient >.>
01:51.20kergothhm?
01:51.32kergothyes, it doesnt make foolish hardcoded assumptions. flexibility is king.
01:51.49kergoththe reason its inefficient is that it wasnt written well
01:51.58luke-jr_assuming the filename has the version isn't a bad assumption, IMO
01:52.07treke|homesure it is
01:52.09kergothi'm glad your opinion doesnt have anything to do with us
01:52.16treke|homeit fails in the case of svn and cvs
01:52.18treke|homeright off the bat
01:53.25luke-jr_not if you consider that a numberless version has the date appended
01:53.37kergoththats a really shitty assumption.
01:54.07kergothand doesnt improve the efficiency for shit. everything needs to be parsed for a ton of reasons, not just that one
01:54.14treke|homethere's no reason a version has to be numerical anyways
01:54.34luke-jr_kergoth: Portage does a decent job of handling it
01:54.59kergothluke-jr_: portage is limited.
01:55.28luke-jr_kergoth: where have you used the extra flexibility gained?
01:55.31kergothwant to know how many times the developers have pointed at bitbake and oe as an example of a cool flexible way of doing something?
01:55.44kergothits happened on a number of occasions
01:55.58kergothclearly they see what you do not.  please get a clue before criticising things you dont understand
01:56.40treke|homekergoth: bah
01:56.46luke-jr_even still, no need to be parsing bbs that aren't needed
01:57.01kergothbullshit.
01:57.09emtehey kergoth
01:57.13luke-jr_or is assuming the filename contains the pkgname horrible also?
01:57.20treke|homeyes it is
01:57.26treke|home:)
01:57.27luke-jr_treke: why?
01:57.30kergothonce again, why dont you try learning about the system before spouting nonsense.
01:57.54kergothand once again, the files need to be parsed for MANY reasons. the packagename and version is nothing.
01:58.16luke-jr_kergoth: well, Portage works, BitBake doesn't (w/o eating a ton of RAM)
01:58.18kergoththe inefficiency isnt due to the things you're spouting crap about.  it's due to evolving from portage
01:58.23kergothportage doesnt directly parse the files.
01:58.25luke-jr_I can't imagine there's a whole lot gained by eating the RAM
01:58.28kergothit resies on bash doing so
01:58.35kergothi dont give a shit about your limited imagination.
01:59.14kergoththe policy decisions arent the reason for its inefficiencies.
01:59.22kergothhow many times do i need to explain this before it fucking sinks in?
01:59.57luke-jr_even once would help
02:00.47treke|homehe already did
02:00.49kergoththe files need to be parsed for MANY reasons. the packagename and version is nothing.  you'd gain jack by imposing arbitrary foolish limitations on the design in a lame attempt at premature optimization.
02:00.58treke|home[18:51] <kergoth> the reason its inefficient is that it wasnt written well
02:01.02treke|homethat simple.
02:01.14luke-jr_you've said those reasons are nothing; you haven't said what reasons *are* something
02:01.47kergoththe package syou ask bitbake to build arent package names. you're asking bitbake to build a provider.
02:01.52kergothyou dont know what a package provides until you parse it
02:02.02kergoththat's just first and forefost
02:02.04kergothforemost, even
02:02.30kergothwhen you ask bitbake to build virtual/libc, it cannot know what provides that until it has parsed every file in the tree.
02:02.44luke-jr_and that's why there's a cache, I would think
02:02.51kergothand the cache was a shitty afterthought
02:02.55kergothonce AGAIN, the code was badly done
02:03.02kergothhow many times do we need to hammer this into your thick skull?

02:05.14treke|homekergoth: so back to premirrors :p
02:05.21kergothhehe
02:05.38kergothokay, the MIRRORS and PREMIRRORS were a simple easy way to set up alternate locations via regexes
02:05.41kergoththe issue is, iirc
02:05.48kergothit was implemented in the Wget class
02:05.55kergothi dont think it was implemented higher level so itd affect all fetch methods
02:06.02treke|homeah, so it can't use the local class?
02:06.03kergothif that's the case, that shoudl really be fixed
02:06.12kergothright, local has no mirroring
02:06.14kergothnor does cvs
02:06.15treke|homethat would completely explain this
02:06.20kergothwhich is why the cvs tarball stash exists!
02:06.26kergothotherwise we could just use mirrors/premirrors
02:06.40kergothwhat you'd want to do is, make it call localpath()
02:06.47kergothand look for that when doing the mirrors
02:06.53kergothso in the cvs case, it'd try to get the tarball
02:06.54treke|homeI was hoping to bypass the overhead of the webserver when pulling it out of the mirror
02:07.13kergothhmm
02:07.14treke|homebut it isn't that big of a deal
02:07.25treke|homeand I have more pressing things on the stack of needed features
02:07.31treke|homelike the upload script
02:07.32kergothwell, afaik, you _should_ be able to setup your premirrors so that upstream http urls come from a file:// premirror
02:07.46kergothits the upstream uri type that affects which fetch class is used
02:07.51kergothhttp/ftp uses Wget, which handles mirrors
02:08.18kergothwhat behavior are you seeing?
02:08.27treke|homekergoth: What I'm running into  is that when I specify file:///storage/oe/source ( which seems to be the right syntax) it says it's an unsupported scheme
02:08.37treke|homelemme look to get it exactly
02:09.06kergothhmm that's strange. it's almost like the Wget mirrors code is calling its own fetch function on the mirror url
02:09.10kergothrather than the main bb.fetch. one
02:09.55treke|homeI'm sick of people uploading upgrades with no source, so next up is an upload script that disallows it :p
02:10.38kergothwoot
02:10.40kergothwe really need that
02:11.03treke|homeNOTE: fetch file:///storage/oe/source/archive/aliens_V1.0.0.tar.gz
02:11.03treke|homefile:///storage/oe/source/archive/aliens_V1.0.0.tar.gz: Unsupported scheme.
02:11.42treke|homenot particulry more useful than what I said though :p
02:12.52treke|homeI'll just grab from apache for now and it we can poke at it later once you're done moving
02:12.56kergothk
02:13.11kergothit'll probably be a fairly quick fix, i've been wanting to fix that stuff up for a while anyway
02:13.26treke|homewhen do you actually leave for MN?
02:13.46kergothnot sure yet.  the movers have vans doing runs periodically.  sometime between may 3rd ant he 20th
02:13.52kergothshould get a call with exact info
02:15.58treke|homemy goal in the end is to try to minimize breakage as much as possible so that when mickey actually gets free time he can work on moving us forward :p

12:06.57LaibschWhat would be a good choice for a python GUI toolset to run on the Zaurus?  Both the program and the development tools ought to be freely available for Windows and Linux.  I thought about PyQT, but http://www.die-offenbachs.de/detlev/eric3.html scared me off with "In order to use eric3 under Win... operating systems you need a commercial or educational license of Qt 3.1".  I thought QT was fully GPL?  Is that site errouneous?  Are there alternatives?  I gu

12:12.25pb_yup.  I talked to Tim Bird, which was interesting.

12:13.45mickeylCwiiis: ping
12:13.57Laibschmickeyl: Thanks, so I guess I could just go Qt now and use qt3 from KDE until QT4 is out?
12:14.11LaibschThat is nice.
12:14.13mickeylLaibsch: I'd say that sounds like the most sane thing on win32 to do
12:14.25LaibschAppears to be the only option, actually

14:22.13CroftonI have a really stoopid question, how do you make a patch?
14:22.35mithroCrofton: look at diff
14:22.37CroftonI know about diff, but I am having a stupid problem and thin kI should go back to the beginning
14:23.17CroftonYes, I am very frustrated :)
14:23.51CroftonI have done this b4
14:25.48mithrowhats the exact problem
14:26.19CroftonI have a patch that doesn't apply when I try and build a package with oe
14:27.31CroftonIt's a very simple patch, adds one line

18:37.35treke|homeand now I remember why I hated doing this using bb :p
18:37.58treke|homewonder where my rewrite of the code is
18:38.17emtethe unvarnished truth about how females are attracted to you while using it?
18:38.26emte:P
18:39.44treke|homehaha
18:39.54emte:)
18:39.55treke|homeno just a pain to control :p
18:40.02emtecmon we know thats what counts
18:41.02emteblech ...
18:41.57emtedo i want to setup my etching system just to make a SMD adapter for a crystal or do i want to just do some solder magic ?
18:45.35emtei should just order some pogos and make an adapter board for these
18:50.22marcanso1thmm
18:50.25marcanso1tinteresting
18:50.30marcanso1tthe SL-6000L uses USB power for something
18:51.05emteprobably trickle power
18:51.27marcanso1tnot sure, but at least the USB function will not work if there is neither USB power nor charger power
18:51.45emtefaster battery charging if you bypass the battery while in the cradle
18:52.01marcanso1tWhich is why the old SL-5500 docking station (without the plastic to keep you from trying) will not work on the 6000L unless you plug in the charger
18:52.26marcanso1tI'm not sure what it precisely powers
18:52.46marcanso1tbut at least the USB functions do not work if neither USB nor charger power is present
18:53.05emtecould have been a mod to increase battery life
18:53.12marcanso1tmight have
18:53.15marcanso1tbut it's strange
18:53.24marcanso1tthat shouldn't prevent the USB chip from working
18:53.46marcanso1twhich suggests some output buffer or USB chip is powered from USB or charger power
18:53.56marcanso1tmaybe it requires 5 volts?
18:54.02marcanso1t(the Z battery only runs 3.7)
18:54.06emtegood chance
18:54.22emtequite a few usb chips are 5
18:54.32marcanso1tinteresting
18:54.58emtehmm
18:55.03marcanso1tOTOH I don't recall this happening on the SL-5500. The docking station doesn't provide USB power and I don't recall having to plug in the charger
18:55.32emtemight have a power amp to push up the voltage
18:55.47marcanso1ta DC-DC you mean
18:55.49marcanso1thmm
18:55.50marcanso1tmight have
18:55.52emtewould eat more battery tjo
18:55.59marcanso1tyep
18:56.09marcanso1talso, what about the USB OTG connector on the 6000L?
18:56.19marcanso1tif it's USB host it should provide power
18:56.26marcanso1tunless it's exempt from that by the OTG specs
18:56.34marcanso1tbut then keyboards/mice wouldn't work
18:56.39marcanso1tand they do
18:57.10emteperhaps they are using an rs232/245 convert?
18:57.30marcanso1thmm?
18:57.48marcanso1tnot sure
18:57.57marcanso1tinteresting thing to try: plugging the 6000L on itself
18:58.17marcanso1tif it works you then get a nifty two ethernet interfaces connected to each other

21:44.42zeckethat crappy bindings
21:53.11RPWhy would a c700 suddenly refuse to reflash? :-/
21:53.50RPSame card + procedure works fine on a c760...
21:58.57zeckeRP: mkfs.dosfs on the partition and try again
22:02.18RPzecke: No change. I go into the menu, tell it to reflash and it does nothing but sits with a blank screen...
22:04.10kergothcould be a messed up cf updater.  tried doing a nand restore?
22:05.00RPkergoth: I've not resorted to that. I don't have a c700 image for a start. That looks like the only option though. I'd just like to know how I've damaged it...
22:05.39kergothnod.  the only time i've had that happen is fucking around blindly with the first partition of nand.  heh
22:07.27RPIt certainly looked like the updater kernel is never lauching as I don't get the boot messages :-/
22:08.01RPI've not done anything to cause it - just a few kernel oopes...
22:09.07RPUnless the 700 is more sensitive somehow :-/
22:11.06RPTime to find a nand image...
22:13.27RPkergoth: I've been trying to test the new pcmcia functionality. So far all it does is oops
22:14.20RPkergoth: It also doesn't seem to remove the need for cardmgr so I'm slightly confused by it all...
22:33.37*** join/#oe anomaly_ (~anomaly@ppp129-86.lns1.adl2.internode.on.net)
22:38.05RPIt won't perform a nand restore either :-(
22:43.06zeckeoh
22:44.06RPIt seems the bootloader and the CF interface aren't talking :-/
22:44.22RPIf fact, the NOR loader won't talk to the CF cards
22:58.37zeckelol the SQLite module is SLOOOW but the memory used is low and keeps constantly low
23:02.42RPzecke: I suspect with a decent sql engine it would be a lot faster...
23:03.01RPStill, it would give all the people with no memory something useable which is good :)
23:03.12RPStop them complaining (as much) :)
23:06.39zeckeRP: sqlite is pretty usable but the bindings suck ass
23:06.58zeckefor sqlite every entry is a string...
23:07.15zeckenot for the pysqlite binding you can not have ' in your string...
23:08.00zeckenow most of the time is spent in fixing up strings to work with pysqlite (I hope I simply misuse it)
23:09.00RPsql doesn't get on well with ' characters... I'm not familiar with how pysqlite should abstract that
23:09.24RPI'm going to bed before I break something else. This c700 is not happy :-(
23:10.24zeckeRP: yeah BUT normally you can bind the string to a position in your query...
23:11.02RPzecke: true. If you can't do that, I can see the problem...
23:16.11treke|homeyeah
23:16.32treke|homepersonally I'd rather see bb use less ram at the expense of speed
23:20.30RPI'll be very interested to try the code using sql as I think I should be able to start helping expand on it...
23:20.43RPanyhow, time for bed. g'night all
