12:33.06gustavozJacmet: around? the new neon ssl option lacks a "depends on BR2_PACKAGE_NEON"
12:40.40Jacmetgustavoz: ahh yes, will fix
12:41.48CIA-5203jacmet 07master * rb21c77cc08eb 10/package/neon/Config.in: neon: fix ssl option dependency
12:43.48gustavozJacmet: lua from #803 looks generally good, it would also allow us to build extra lua packages
12:44.04Jacmetgustavoz: ok, thanks - I'll commit it then (soonish)
12:44.30gustavozi'll submit components once that's done
12:45.38gustavozJacmet: i'll look into the webkit mess soonish, probably move the package to the one from webkitgtk.org
12:46.31Jacmetgustavoz: ok, thanks!
12:46.49gustavozthat'll be some nice work though since we'll probably need some deps bump around
12:56.04Jacmetyeah
12:56.44Jacmetgustavoz: I would like to cleanup the package selection order - E.G. move libraries that you normally don't need to select manually into a libs section
12:57.18gustavozJacmet: yes that would be the way to go, some "support libraries" section
12:57.49gustavozJacmet: users could go in manually there but in general that wouldn't be required except for dev/debugging purposes
12:58.07Jacmetgustavoz: exactly
12:58.16gustavozJacmet: i've been holding off in doing the reorg since it would be a jumbo patch
12:58.25Jacmetgustavoz: right now the 600+ packages are a bit overwhelming for new users
12:58.50gustavozJacmet: i can go for it if you're not doing so atm
12:59.19Jacmetgustavoz: you are welcome to do so - I'm at work now (last day of the year), and I'm trying to finish up something else
12:59.46gustavozJacmet: looking into mtd-utils-1.2.0 at the moment, i'll probably look into that over the weekend
13:01.06Jacmetgustavoz: ohh, did Artem put out a release before he went on holiday?
13:01.40gustavozJacmet: it's quite old actually, 1.1.0 is from 20070822, 1.2.0 from 20080207
13:02.05gustavozJacmet: on a quick inspection it's basically dropping the mkfs.jffs2 patch and just bumping
13:02.35Jacmetgustavoz: ohh, I was convinced we had the latest version
13:02.49gustavozJacmet: i'll give it a spin though i can only test for NOR/dataflash here
13:02.55Jacmetgustavoz: there has recently been some discussion about getting a new mtd-utils release out with ubifs support
13:03.20gustavozJacmet: that would be great, we lack ubifs because of that
13:03.31Jacmetgustavoz: great, I would think it's safe enough to bump this early in the development phase
13:03.36Jacmetgustavoz: indeed
13:04.10Jacmetgustavoz: Artem promised to put out a release before xmas, but he apparently forgot
13:04.12gustavozJacmet: i'm trying to think what to do with the package initscripts though haven't figured out a nice thing to do with them
13:05.05gustavozJacmet: in my case in particular they just bother me since i've got my own system in the target skeleton, thinking a global option to enable/disable them would be the way to go
13:05.07Jacmetgustavoz: what do you mean? using !busybox init?
13:05.49gustavozJacmet: i'm using it but i've got a non-privileged wrapper script that runs or doesn't based in a ascii config file
13:06.09Jacmetgustavoz: we have this post-build cleanup script support nowadays, you could probably just do a rm $(TARGET_DIR)/etc/init.d/S* in there
13:06.13gustavozJacmet: that way the wrapper does root but the config doesn't need to be
13:06.26Jacmetgustavoz: ok
13:06.47gustavozJacmet: yes that's what i do atm, but still not the nicest way to go :)
13:07.52Jacmetgustavoz: true, but yet-another-obscure-config-knop to screw up new users isn't that nice either
13:08.31gustavozJacmet: i'm in no rush for that config knob so i'm just thinking about it at the moment
13:09.37gustavozJacmet: what worries me about the initscript is more a lack of consistency, some packages completely lack them for example
13:10.30Jacmetgustavoz: which one lack them? The ones I ever used do have one
13:10.53Jacmetgustavoz: but I ofcourse only use a very small subset of BR on a day-to-day base
13:12.24gustavozJacmet: OTOH dnsmasq (my fault probably since i've been maintaining it), acpid, lighttpd, boa
13:13.09Jacmetgustavoz: ok, that sounds like bugs that should just get fixed
13:13.32Jacmetgustavoz: it's been many years since I've used boa - I normally just use the busybox httpd
13:13.41gustavozJacmet: i've been using lighttpd mostly
13:13.54Jacmetgustavoz: and I don't normally work on x86, so no acpid
13:14.08gustavozJacmet: me neither, i was just looking around ;)
13:14.26gustavozthttpd and others too
13:14.57gustavozi've gotta compile a big list of package "usefulness" with the menu reorg
13:15.17gustavozmostly for maintenance purposes
13:15.22Jacmetgustavoz: yeah
13:16.04gustavozJacmet: we could TODO the list with the ones that need some love (move to Makefile.autotools.in, check security bugs) so people get involved
13:18.04gustavozJacmet: mtd-utils-1.2.0 wants error.h *sigh*
13:18.30gustavoznow to check if it's for real
13:19.08Jacmetgustavoz: yes, a review / check of the old packages could be good
