I assumed that if the Requires were done right this wasn't an issue. 16:38:59 * abadger1999 looks at how to edit that in. 16:39:12 <tibbs|h> Right, I also thought this was entirely doable with dependencies. 16:39:34 <tibbs|h> I seem to recall the list discussion went that way as well. 16:45:36 <tibbs|h> So.... 16:46:05 <abadger1999> Okay -- updated draft: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Till/Conflicts_Splitting_Draft 16:46:11 <abadger1999> Does that look good? 16:46:58 <RemiFedora> ok 16:47:00 <tibbs|h> Yeah. 16:47:26 <abadger1999> Alright, let's vote: 16:47:28 <abadger1999> +1 16:47:30 <tibbs|h> +1 16:47:56 <limburgher> +1 Still think it's spurious, but meh. 16:48:01 <RemiFedora> +1 16:49:08 <abadger1999> okay, that's a vote from everyone present. 16:50:30 <abadger1999> anyone have a ticket they'd like to discuss and vote on today? 16:51:37 <RemiFedora> there is the itk one... 16:52:04 <RemiFedora> but seems an awfull one... 16:52:07 <limburgher> I was just thinking that. 16:52:13 <tibbs|h> I thought we kind of shot that down. 16:52:27 <limburgher> Right, so what now, have it blocked? 16:53:03 <RemiFedora> itk 2.2.22 is in the repo (but probably broken as httpd 2.4 is there) 16:54:09 <abadger1999> RemiFedora: So the way I'm seeing it implemented technically, 16:54:26 <RemiFedora> no... it currently present, with the full httpd 2.2 sources + patch + itk 16:54:28 <abadger1999> the httpd-itk package creates a new MPM that it then runs explicitly in the httpd-itk.service file. 16:54:38 <RemiFedora> yes 16:54:42 <abadger1999> So it doesn't depend on the system apache in that manner. 16:54:53 <abadger1999> It does use the apache config from the httpd package. 16:55:10 <abadger1999> So I suppose if there were an incompatible config syntax change, that would break the package. 16:55:13 <RemiFedora> which is incompatible (2.2/2.4) 16:57:26 <abadger1999> Anyhow... yeah --I don't see this going anywhere but asking fesco to block the package. 16:57:58 <RemiFedora> abadger1999, the ticket already comes from fesco... 16:58:17 <abadger1999> We could tlak to hubbittus for awhile longer in the ticket to try to explain why that's the case (I think he's still unclear about that) but I don't see any information which would change that. 16:58:54 <abadger1999> #action toshio will try to explain why we're still convinced that blocking is the right choiuce. Toshio will either update or open a new ticket for fesco to block the package. 16:59:10 <abadger1999> #undo 16:59:10 <zodbot> Removing item from minutes: <MeetBot.items.Action object at 0x1a6a3f50> 16:59:20 <abadger1999> #topic httpd-itk https://fedorahosted.org/fpc/ticket/310 16:59:26 <abadger1999> #action toshio will try to explain why we're still convinced that blocking is the right choiuce. Toshio will either update or open a new ticket for fesco to block the package. 17:00:20 <abadger1999> #topic Bundling exception for nodejs-dateformat https://fedorahosted.org/fpc/ticket/319 17:00:26 <abadger1999> This looks like it might be easy-ish 17:00:30 <abadger1999> It looks like a fork to me. 17:01:24 <abadger1999> If others agree that it's a fork, then I think we could vote pretty easily. If not, then we'll need to discuss. 17:01:50 <tibbs|h> It does seem like a true fork. 17:02:17 <tibbs|h> I'm guessing the modules don't conflict if both are installed. 17:02:37 <tibbs|h> Or are they both imported the same way? I know nothing about node.js. 17:02:46 <abadger1999> Hmm.. 17:03:03 <abadger1999> tchol or jamielinux: ping, are you around by chance? 17:03:48 <abadger1999> I'm pretty sure that node.js imports things differently but I admit to not knowing much about it. 17:03:56 * tchol reads scrollback 17:04:14 <tchol> dunno what's going on with this one in particular. let me check the ticket real quick 17:04:51 <tchol> okay this is browser js adapted to work with node so it couldn't possibly conflict if both were installed 17:05:39 <abadger1999> Cool. 17:06:03 <tibbs|h> Given the info we have, I'd +1 this. 17:06:06 <abadger1999> +1 17:07:59 <abadger1999> limburgher, RemiFedora: You still around to vote on this one? 17:08:06 <abadger1999> Bundling exception for nodejs-dateformat 17:08:38 <tchol> not overriding the JS internal date format for unrelated is a damn good reason for forking all by itself IMHO ;-) 17:09:01 <abadger1999> Okay then. I'll record what we have and why and ask for additional votes on ticket. 17:09:17 <RemiFedora> +1 17:09:29 <abadger1999> #topic Problem with lack of quorum -- Proposal for next meeting 17:09:33 <RemiFedora> sorry for late vote 17:10:05 <abadger1999> Okay, so we've been having issues achieving quorum for the past few weeks -- I think this happens every summer as people have vacations, conferences, and other travel plans. 17:10:43 <abadger1999> I'd suggest that we meet every week and people that are present can discuss things that they think are problematic in any particular ticket. 17:10:59 <abadger1999> so that things happen quicker than by replying in the tickets. 17:11:19 <abadger1999> Voting can be done in IRC and finished i nthe ticket. 17:11:29 <tibbs|h> Yes, even if we don't have quorum there is still value in talking about things. 17:12:02 * RemiFedora agree 17:12:21 <abadger1999> Cool. Unless we miraculously have more people next week (I doubt it -- it's a travel day for people who are going to flock) that'll the plan for next week then. 17:12:31 <tibbs|h> And with this much piling up, we can't afford to waste whatever time we can get. 17:12:56 <limburgher> Sorry got called away, reading back. 17:13:04 <abadger1999> Speaking of flock -- I will be travelling so I might not be present to ru nthe meeting. I don't know what time spot is travelling so he might not be either. 17:13:06 <nirik> abadger1999: thats one more week out. ;) not next week 17:13:11 <abadger1999> oh 17:13:14 <abadger1999> well then :-) 17:13:21 <abadger1999> never mind that :-) 17:13:37 * abadger1999 pushes more flock stuff to the back burner 17:14:03 <limburgher> Still need a vote from me for nj-dateformat? 17:14:19 <abadger1999> limburgher: Sure -- Then I'll record it in the ticket. 17:14:21 <limburgher> +1 17:14:25 <abadger1999> Excellent. 17:14:29 <abadger1999> #topic Open Floor 17:14:35 <abadger1999> Anyone have anything to add? 17:14:43 <abadger1999> If not, I'll close the meeting in a minute 17:14:55 <limburgher> Nothing here, sorry for being so flaky. 17:15:14 <abadger1999> No problem, you still managed to get your vote in for everything we discussed :-) 17:15:28 <limburgher> Barely. 17:17:13 <abadger1999> #endmeeting
