15:26.19 *** join/#brlcad Mouette (n=root@fw1.phys.sinica.edu.tw)
15:26.56 Mouette i notice this:http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?thread_id=2177261&forum_id=362510
15:28.12 Mouette Maybe my build method is not good
15:34.14 Mouette you tell him: mv /opt/BRL-CAD to /usr/local/
15:36.12 Mouette This is my error method that build package: first compile and install to /usr/local and then make package by using /usr/local to /opt
15:38.01 mafm huh, what are you trying to do?
15:39.06 Mouette you means?
15:41.02 mafm I'm no expert, but I think that you cannot move the installed files from one place to another
15:41.35 mafm there might be hardcoded paths in some places and so on, so if you move the installed files elsewhere, those hardcoded paths won't work
15:43.15 mafm think of the paths that brlcad-config returns, in example
15:43.31 Mouette But when the package install my test system, it is normal
15:43.57 Mouette my test system is a pure system
15:44.34 Mouette so remove those package in sourceforge
15:45.02 Mouette then i repackge
15:45.17 mafm I think that brlcad has to do that, I don't think that I have permission to remove packages
15:49.15 mafm "You cannot perform file release operations on this project."
15:49.44 mafm (nor I should, since I never took care of that and know the policies about releases :) )
16:04.42 brlcad Mouette: we didn't tell him to move anything -- they said they moved it
16:05.45 brlcad you can relocate the install like they suggest, but it will mean that some things won't work like you'd expect
16:06.03 brlcad and you'll have to define to env vars to get some things to work in the relocated place
16:06.59 brlcad Mouette: what it sounded like is that you did the same thing again where you compiled once with a prefix of one thing and then you compiled/installed again using a different prefix -- so it was messed up
16:07.20 brlcad they fixed it by making a symlink, but you gotta stop doing that :)
16:08.37 mafm brlcad: It's sunday, don't come to work :P
16:08.46 brlcad and we don't remove releases, it is what it is
16:09.20 brlcad mafm: why not? not that I planned on it :)
16:10.45 mafm it's holy day, you shouldn't work on lord's day :P
16:11.45 brlcad doesn't work, he plays
16:11.55 mafm :D
16:12.05 brlcad is it still work if you really do enjoy it so much :)
16:12.07 mafm chatting from lab's 'pooter too...
16:13.21 brlcad that said, I do need to be packing .. this is going to be one heck of a busy week
16:15.40 mafm :D
16:15.44 mafm me too
16:15.53 mafm it seems that I'm staying in the lab in the end
16:16.11 mafm but I wanted to find a new apartment and move in these following 5 days :)
16:16.39 mafm (me continuing in the lab is positive for BRL-CAD, I guess)
16:17.31 *** join/#brlcad Elperion (n=Bary@p5B14E86F.dip.t-dialin.net)
16:18.24 brlcad ah, so moving at the same time :)
16:18.52 mafm are you moving too?
16:18.54 brlcad yep
16:19.12 mafm I already did most of the packing, I don't have much anyway
16:19.16 Mouette i have modify the pkginfo and let it install to the same place with build binary: /usr/local, Maybe this is the simplest method, now i have reuploading 7.12.6
16:19.23 brlcad cops are getting too close, gotta keep them searching
16:19.34 Mouette now i modify 7.12.4's
16:19.54 brlcad Mouette: 7.12.6 is posted .. wait for 7.12.8/7.14.0 :)
16:19.56 mafm lol
16:20.40 brlcad we don't replace binaries that have already gone out (ever), that's just asking for release maintenance problems
16:20.49 mafm not a problem of the cops, but I don't have TV or almost anything beyond the (now fscked up) laptop, and a few pieces of furniture
16:21.01 brlcad unless there is some serious security issue
16:21.16 brlcad even then it's just marked hidden or incremented on a sub-patch
16:21.51 brlcad mafm: that's nice .. I have way too much stuff for my comfort (and I'm a pack rat)
16:22.52 brlcad my tv is actually my biggest problem atm .. it's way too big for one person to move
16:23.00 mafm :D
16:23.04 mafm I don't even have TV :)
16:23.07 brlcad s/big/heavy/
16:23.37 brlcad I can carry a 14" couch on my back, but that tv is a beast
16:23.38 mafm well, I was in a permanent state of indecision for the last couple of years, I'm trying to get to some place that I can call home
16:23.42 brlcad and I do hate asking for help
16:23.46 mafm that's also why I don't have many things :)
16:24.18 mafm TV from Hell!
16:24.32 brlcad I've not staying in one place for more than three years for more than a decade
16:24.59 mafm so you have experience in packing, yep :P
16:25.25 brlcad closer to two decades i suppose...
16:25.33 mafm this was my first residence (apart from weeks outside etc) out of parent's home though
16:28.26 mafm "8. How much time have you spent working on your SoC project since the midterm evaluation, on average?
16:28.27 mafm 0 - 5 hours per week / 6 - 10 hours per week / 10 - 15 hours per week / More than 15 hours per week"
16:28.29 mafm :D
16:28.41 mafm I would have though that they put somewhat higher values
16:28.45 mafm like x3 :)
16:30.57 brlcad yeah, but think of it more like an optional choice quiz: all options except one are wrong
16:31.11 brlcad so if you answer one of the others, you get reviewed more closely to see what's wrong
16:31.51 mafm who submits the final evaluation, Bob?
16:31.57 brlcad yep
16:32.01 mafm nobody started yet
16:32.01 brlcad or me
16:32.11 brlcad we've not started yet
16:32.23 brlcad 7 days for that too
16:32.36 mafm I see
16:32.43 brlcad should be done/started by Wed
16:32.57 brlcad have some discussions and deliberations
16:33.09 mafm I want to finish this ASAP to focus on the apartment for the rest of the week
16:40.10 mafm do you still have to discuss about the evaluations?
16:46.17 brlcad of course
16:46.50 brlcad what else?
16:46.54 brlcad :)
16:49.31 mafm am I going to get my t-shirt?
16:49.44 mafm or not known yet?
16:50.02 mafm the t-shirt is much nicer this year than the previous year
16:50.05 mafm :P
16:59.43 mafm (submited and revised)
