| cfedde | zamolxes: I'd consider those bugs. Or is it Perl that you are dissing there. |
| zamolxes | xp_prg: just use the skeleton script .. |
| Paladin | rindolf: nice bug discovery.. |
| rindolf | Paladin: I discovered it by accident. |
| zamolxes | cfedde: no, stupid naming is not a bug, thats it |
| xp_prg | unfortunately I am not familiar with skeleton script, where is that? |
| Paladin | rindolf: ya.. bugs caused by syntax errors are usually harder to find as fewer people would have code that causes it.. |
| rindolf | Paladin: what's up? |
| Paladin | rindolf: have a day off.. just waiting for the g/f to get ready so we can go out.. rindolf: you? |
| rindolf | Paladin: I've prepared Mandriva RPMs for XML::Feed and its dependencies. Paladin: and today was my monthly backup day. |
| Paladin | rindolf: cool.. you use cpan2rpm for that? |
| rindolf | Paladin: surprisingly everything fit on one CD. Paladin: no, I tweaked the RPM specs by hand. |
| Paladin | rindolf: ahh.. I've used cpan2rpm for our systems at work, and my home system.. it usually works really well.. doesn't require much tweaking in most cases.. |
| rindolf | 221/231 Paladin: OK. |

| rindolf | Paladin: I used the RPM .spec's of previous RPMs. I'm still not confident in starting writing an RPM .spec from scratch. I think hardly anyone does that. Hi somian |
| zamolxes | xp_prg: from http://packages.debian.org/stable/admin/initscripts |
| Paladin | rindolf: ya.. I have a template .spec file that I use when creating new RPMs.. |
| rindolf | It's like writing Win32 programs in C/C++. You can't . |
| Paladin | heh.. ya |
| simcop2387 | GumbyBRAIN: i shot the sheriff! |
| GumbyBRAIN | the day after i cannot get perl to to send me the code. |
| rindolf | Paladin: well, I'm usually starting from one of the existing RPMs in the Mandriva (or whatever) repository. Paladin: I have Sunday off. |
| somian | salutations all |
| Paladin | rindolf: ahh.. ya that helps.. |
| rindolf | Paladin: after a pretty hectic week. |
| Paladin | rindolf: only 1 day off a week? |
| rindolf | Paladin: for Purim. Paladin: but we're getting all of Passover off. |
| LeoNerd | Does anyone know why "getnameinfo" and "getaddrinfo" are named that way around..? I think they're named backwards... they would make more sense being swapped |
| Paladin | rindolf: ahh.. right, that's coming up.. |
| rindolf | Including days where you are allowed to be employed. |
