08:00.19Palimerlin1991, pong
08:01.09merlin1991do you have a modest build tree around? I'm wondering what goes into intltool-update.in, because here it is empty and the configure script fails thanks to that
08:02.47Paliin my modest tree there is no intltool-update.in file
08:03.51merlin1991it got created on build time here
08:04.16merlin1991something is wrong with my modest tree, I'll do a clean git clone

10:08.57DocScrutinizer05(([2012-08-23 19:43:25] <Estel_> I'm just interested what ham may do "better" than me manually about repos + fapman about installing (other than using off-line mode to install system ugprade, which I mimic anyway) ))  A) CSSU installer is using HAM (we wouldn't want to install fapman just to install CSSU) B) CSSU is tested against HAM  C) we investigated fapman just enough to know we don't want to support it and it may/does have
10:08.58DocScrutinizer05problems when it comes to CSSU  D) eventually CSSU comes with massive CSSU specific augments to HAM (not fapman)  --> If you want to compare your weird method to the way CSSU installer works, you just have to learn about, and understand all that. Plus fapman, which for obvious reasons none of CSSU team is interested in learning about even more than we already did
10:10.53DocScrutinizer05for sure nobody of CSSU team will investigate, just to answer your "academic" question
10:13.22DocScrutinizer05btw I doubt your manual method is any faster than (admittedly slow) HAM, just you have a lot to do manually while with standard CSSU installer & HAM you could use the time HAM needs to complete the task unattended and automatically, to do some more useful things rather than fuzzinh around with manual editing of repo lists, checking .desktop files and scripts and thinking how to replace all that using fapman
10:17.06DocScrutinizer05I just hope you never ever forget to mention this weird way you installed and updated CSSU, whenever you report a bug against CSSU-T (or rather maybe don't even bother to report any bugs, since due to this installation method all those tickets shall get closed INVALID)
10:20.31DocScrutinizer05it's not reasonable to think about possible causes in that installation method when it comes to whatever bug report, just useless nonsensical complications
10:22.48DocScrutinizer05It's a real pitty you basically refuse to help debugging CSSU-T just to satisfy your rather ideological aversion against HAM - after all it's just 5 min of calm waiting you had to bear with, once for each CSSU install/update

11:22.05Lava_CroftToo bad that's not a criminal offense
11:22.10Lava_CroftRight?
11:51.58DocScrutinizer05ooh, a pun! hahahaha
11:53.32DocScrutinizer05almost missed it
11:54.23Lava_Croftfaintly smiles at DocScrutinizer05
12:00.25DocScrutinizer05it's just that: a pity. CSSU could use every single tester, but it for sure doesn't need bug reports that in fact are against a non-standard installation and thus waste everybody's time
12:00.31*** join/#maemo-ssu gri (~gri@muhkuh.net)
12:00.52Lava_CroftI'm not the one who has to be convinced of anything in this case. :<

12:01.11Lava_CroftBut a bug is a bug.
12:11.11DocScrutinizer05and investigating where from a bug originates makes no sense for non-standard deprecated installs
12:12.39Lava_Croftdepends on your definition of deprecrated?
12:12.48Lava_Croftsince the n900 itself is deprecated, idk
12:13.05DocScrutinizer05fapman definitely meets general definition of deprecated for CSSU
12:13.07Lava_Croftand tbh, these discussions are an utter waste of time and your good mood
12:13.33Lava_Croftestel isnt a 'noob'
12:13.36Lava_Croftso why bother
12:13.53DocScrutinizer05I'm just hoping for the best (I.I. a change in habits), probably due to my good mood
12:14.01DocScrutinizer05I.E.*
12:14.06chem|stLava_Croft: boon?
12:14.13Lava_Croftnoob tobias?
12:14.15Lava_Croftoh wait
12:14.17Lava_Croftnoob saibot was it
12:15.16DocScrutinizer05N.B. we started that discussion since somebody had a problem with installing CSSU
12:15.47DocScrutinizer05utterly useless to claim "I never seen those problems - I used fapman"
12:16.00Lava_Croftthats what i mean, why bother with estel and this situation
12:16.18Lava_Crofthe isnt a random poor user that runs into a real bug
12:16.29DocScrutinizer05maybe I tried to be polite to everybody
12:16.40Lava_Croftthat would be a first, right? :P
12:16.43Lava_Croftok, that was a bit low
12:16.51DocScrutinizer05my usual answer would've been less friendly and educational
12:18.17chem|stOT I'd like to backupmenu my device before starting off with next cssu-s release, any idea where a how-to is as tmo seems outdated
12:18.22DocScrutinizer05so I deliberately ignored the fact that Estel_ is no noob and should've known better
12:19.05DocScrutinizer05howto for BM? useless, it's as straightforward as it gets
12:19.20chem|stDocScrutinizer05: noob/boon also specifies people not helping the game by ignoring rules/facts/needs
12:19.41DocScrutinizer05ok, wasn't aware of that definition
12:20.01Lava_Croft:)
12:20.07DocScrutinizer05chem|st: install BM, boot with slider open
12:20.10DocScrutinizer05see menu
12:20.14chem|stpeople whom do not learn from their mistakes are included
12:20.19Lava_Croftchem|st: yup
12:20.27Lava_Croftnewbies are fine, noobs are not
12:20.51chem|stDocScrutinizer05: extras-devel and just that? the tmo thread is confusing with the bootmenu stuff
12:21.02DocScrutinizer05I guess so
12:21.14Lava_Croftchem|st: thats what i used
12:21.20DocScrutinizer05I'd think most recent and best version is in -devel
12:21.30Lava_Crofti think that goes for a lot of applications
12:21.35chem|stLava_Croft: newbies are noobs... noob is n00b 1337speak for newb
12:21.44Lava_Croftchem|st: not in my book
12:21.48Lava_Croftnewbies are new players, noobs are not
12:21.57Lava_Croftwell, they can be, but mostly they arent
12:21.59DocScrutinizer05~dict noob
12:23.29DocScrutinizer05>> Criteria for being considered a newbie vary wildly...<< is the key
12:24.38DocScrutinizer05language is dynamic and meanings change during periods of as short as some days
12:24.47DocScrutinizer05see "hacker"
12:24.54chem|styes.... but, so you join a group and do not adapt to it makes you a noob in all cases
12:24.55Lava_Crofthacker is someone who jailbreaks his iphone right
12:24.59jon_yI prefer statically typed language :)
12:25.16jon_ythese days, following a script will get you that
12:25.28jon_ylearn2read makes you a cool hacker
12:25.55jon_yI know because I jailbroken iphone back in the 3g days by following instructions on the internet :)
12:26.03DocScrutinizer05ponders opening a shop called typecast
12:26.23jon_ylol
12:27.26DocScrutinizer05today's offer: our all-in-one extra-complete "cool hacker" box
12:27.45DocScrutinizer05comes incl sweatshirt
12:28.35chem|stdon't forget the 'hacked' reading iphone case!
12:28.50DocScrutinizer05:nod:
12:29.19jon_yI made good money from jail breaking iphones, those guys paid me, without me asking, free money is cool too :)
12:29.39DocScrutinizer05now that's one awesome business model
12:30.06DocScrutinizer05alas it would require me buying a spyPhone
12:30.09chem|st"little boxes on the hillside, little boxes made of tikitaki, little boxes all the same"
12:30.24chem|stDocScrutinizer05: why?
12:30.34DocScrutinizer05hmm, indeed
12:30.51DocScrutinizer05for RL-advertising?
12:31.43chem|styou don't need an preyPhone.... you need a shirtlabeler and a foilplotter and a supply of blank preyPhone cases

23:48.12gregoamerlin1991, DocScrutinizer05: I've policy-settings-rx51 0.4.10.8+0m5 installed from maemo.merlin1991.at (since it's there) and my device hasn't gone up in smoke yet. anything specific I should look out for?
23:49.52DocScrutinizer05gregoa: sure :-) many thanks! please check all audio functions
23:51.26ShadowJKwith default maemo install I was particulary impressed how listening to headphone music, receiving incoming call, it didn't blast caller with music or mute caller to me, it paused music. Same for bluetooth
23:51.36DocScrutinizer05whatever you can think of: BT headset, BT stereo music, wired same, speakerphone, normal phone, ringtones, recorder via internal mic & wired mic in headset & BT. FMRX to any possible sink, FMTX from any possible source
23:51.52gregoaDocScrutinizer05: phone calls work, sms notifications are noisy, I can play audio files. - and I don't have any fancy headset with buttons or BT to test ...
23:52.12ShadowJKre bluetooth, amusingly, listening to device-local bt a2dp audio is more reliable than listening to device-local through headphone :-)
23:53.25DocScrutinizer05oooh, and of course AV-out
23:54.22DocScrutinizer05gregoa: almost every headset has one button
23:55.00DocScrutinizer05fancy multibutton wired headsets don't work with N900 anyway
23:55.30DocScrutinizer05the headset that usually ships with every N900 has a button as well
23:55.58DocScrutinizer05inside the mic blob
23:56.08DocScrutinizer05just squeeze it
23:58.29gregoaDocScrutinizer05: ah right, just found the original headset and it has a button :) what is it supposed to do? i.e. how can I test it?
