jdubyo seb128 12:10
MithrandirI have one at home, but I'm at my gf's, so I won't be able to test in less than ~18 hours.12:12
lamontbdale: that's what I'd use12:23
lamontthom: interesting12:25

Clintand vcsa is attributes12:44
lamontanyone want to play with the new and improved postfix postinst before I upload?12:44
bdalelamont: thanks, I'm never sure what to do with debian-only version numbers...12:44
=== lamont hasn't found any issues, but...
lamontbdale: it's really a question of whether or not the previous version was an NMU..12:45
lamontcan't use a non-native version,because tar.gz != orig.tar.gz...12:45
lamontClint: ok.  and udev createing/removing them is probably xlock's doing?12:46

elmo_mfhey, couple of questions - aren't we meant to have some ssh-askpass-gnome love kick in automatically?12:50
mdzit's installed with Desktop, so yes12:50
jdubnot automatically at the moment, it's not in the session12:50
jdubif you put 'ssh-add' into your session programs, it will run at startup12:51
mdzjdub: he said ssh-askpass-gnome, not ssh-add12:51
jdubsame thing12:51
mdzer, no12:51
mdzssh-askpass-gnome should be used automagically whenever stdin is not a tty12:51
jdubssh-add runs ssh-askpass-gnome when run without a tty, right?12:51
jdubyes12:51
jdubthat's what ssh-add does12:51
mdzssh-add, ssh, scp, ...12:51
mdzthey all do12:51
elmo_mfand, a) does 'About Ubuntu' work for anyone/is it meant to?, b) What's this 'Start here' icon all about?12:51
jdubelmo_mf: start here?!12:52
mdzI haven't seen that in weeks12:52
jdubelmo_mf: did you just do a fresh install?12:52
mdzelmo_mf: About Ubuntu opens firefox with no-name-yet in it for me (works)12:52
mdz(current daily)12:52
mdzworkrave12:52
elmo_mfoh, and c) is anyone else seeing mozilla-firefox break hideously on initial run?  it asks for a profile, and if I just try to click past it, it says some madness like 'can not use profile 'default' as it's already in use'12:52
elmo_mfjdub: no, this is my laptop I installed a while ago, but only started really using as a desktop today.. all symptoms have been reproduced after dist-upgrade tho12:53
jdubelmo_mf: start here was once created by nautilus on first-startup12:54
elmo_mfactually, scratch (c), can't reprouce that now12:54
elmo_mfjdub: okay, so won't be a problem for new users and guess there's not much that can be done about it now12:54
elmo_mfb lah, and (a).. clearly should get some sleep12:54
elmo_mfmdz: how do you mean not a tty?  like if I used it in nautilus or something? 12:55
jdubelmo_mf: (for instance, if you run ssh-add from the 'run application' dialogue, yeah)12:55
jdubelmo_mf: (then it will use ssh-askpass-gnome to prompt you)12:56
jdubelmo_mf: but if you go into the sessions dialogue, you can set it to run ssh-add when you start gnome12:56
elmo_mfah, ok.. I thought it might do it the first time I tried to ssh somewhere which would accept the key12:56
elmo_mfthat'd be kind of nice?12:56
jdubhrm12:57
jdubwell, if you're doing that, you've got a tty ;)12:57
jdubor you're using ssh: or scp: in nautilus12:57
lamontelmo_mf: mf??01:01
lamontoh.01:01
elmo_mfmark's flat01:02
lamontyeah - took me a minute to remember the word for 'house'. :-)01:03
elmo_mfI just unpassworded the wiki and added wiki.ubuntu.com - can someone checks both the old version (pref with uname/pword)  and the new one works, pls?01:06
jdubelmo_mf: can we rename it to 'Ubuntu Wiki'?01:08
elmo_mfjdub: where?01:08
jdubthe title of the wiki01:08
jdubit's in the configuration file01:09
lamontelmo_mf: just wget'ed both http://wiki.ubuntu.com/FrontPage and http://sounder:oink@wiki.ubuntu.com/FrontPage just fine01:09
elmo_mflamont: cool, thanks01:10
elmo_mfjdub: k01:10
=== lamont runs out of excuses to not reboot, brb
elmo_mfjdub: done01:11

mdzI'd like to get that in for preview if possible, so please test it01:17
seb128The accepted messages are sent on uploader and maintainer email ? I got mails on my canonical and debian email and I've used the canonical one for these uploads (I'm the debian maintainer for these packages)01:18
lamontmdz: so what's the correct and current way to build a new kernel and have grub switch to that?01:18
=== lamont installed a new kernel, but grub didn't boot that one..
mdzlamont: ls -1vr01:19
lamontle huh?01:19
mdzthat's the sort order it uses01:19
elmo_mfmdz: err, anything other than gsfonts?01:19
elmo_mfseb128: yes, if they're both in the whitelist01:19
seb128ok01:19
mdzelmo_mf: not that I see01:20
seb128I was just wondering why I got dup of the messages01:20

lamontor is it all already in the can ?01:28
jdubseb128: fixed by unb0rking preferred applications :)01:28
seb128ok :)01:29
jdublamont: it's mostly in the can, i haven't really gone through gnome stuff yet01:29
elmo_mfGAR, I would bribe someone so much money to hax0r gtk.org and make emacs keybindings the default01:30
elmo_mfso, anyway, home.ubuntu.com exists - Mark'd like that used for the 'about ubuntu' thing - it's a low TTL CNAME to www.no-name-yet.com ATM01:31
lamontmdz: for testing, will my reboot suffice to kill things to a happy state, if I login via text console when i get to gdm???01:31
lamont:-)01:31
mdzelmo_mf: https://bugzilla.no-name-yet.com/show_bug.cgi?id=120501:31
jdubelmo_mf: seb can you make that change in gnome-panel?01:31
jdubseb128: i'll do firefox/ephy01:31
mdzlamont: if and only if you do not have any mixer settings saved01:31
mdzwhich is unlikely if you have shut down the machine cleanly01:32
mdzby default, alsa-base saves the mixer settings on shutdown and restores them on reboot01:32
seb128jdub: I'll do the change in panel 2.8 when it'll be out01:32
jdubseb128: ok01:32
seb128probably tomorrow01:32
mdzwhat we need is the behaviour when the module is first loaded, and no settings have been saved01:32
lamontmdz: and we're running post-restore?01:32
seb128I'm almost in sync with today releases, time to sleep soon :)01:32
mdzlamont: if you have shut down the machine cleanly, you most likely have saved settings which were restored when you rebooted01:32
=== lamont hugs ccache
lamontah, so reboot, login text mode, rmmod, modprobe, run the script?01:33
mdzlamont: I wrote instructions in the mail, yes01:34
mdzno need to reboot unless you want to01:34
mdzreloading the module is sufficient01:34
lamontmdz: rebooting for the other thing.01:34
lamontfigured I'd kill two birds with one stone, since logging out is about the same pain level as rebooting...01:35
mdzjdub: I'm especially interested in Apple systems, since they seem to have different mixer behaviour01:35

mdzI haven't uploaded anything yet, because I'm waiting for more testing01:36
=== lamont decides he really needs a test machine for hacking around on. This weekend is going to be redecorate time...
mdzI gave instructions on the sounder list01:36
mdzClint: around?01:37
elmo_mfohoh, I remembered e)01:37
sabdflmdz: great hack on the sound front, works perfectly here01:38
elmo_mfWTF does pbbutonsd think it's cool to dim my fricking screen even when I'm on AC ?01:38
mdzsabdfl: great; I'm hoping to slip it in for preview01:38
elmo_mf(and does it for anyone else?)01:38
=== lamont cycles things, _one_more_time__-... sigh.
sabdfljdub: any benefit to gnome-alsamixer?01:38
sabdflmdz: agreed, no-brainer01:38
mdzelmo_mf: hmm, you have a powerpc machine, mind testing the unmute script?01:38
mdzthe G4 is the only machine so far where it doesn't do the right thing01:39
mdzit's no worse, of course01:39
elmo_mfmdz: sure one sec01:39
jdubsabdfl: no, it's gross01:40
jdubsabdfl: 2.10 will have a shiny new mixer01:40
=== elmo_mf scares sabdfl by telling him about gnus
sabdfljdub: ok, take your word for it :-)01:40
elmo_mfmdz: hmm, I have sound compiled in :-/01:41
elmo_mfmaybe I should just dogfood our kernels01:41
mdzelmo_mf: rm /var/lib/alsa/asound.state && reboot :-)01:41
jdubelmo_mf: i disabled the dimming thing at one point01:41
mdzelmo_mf: maybe??01:41

lamontmdz: so is aplay supposed to hang?01:50
mdzlamont: well, no01:50
mdzlamont: did your sound work before you tried the experiment?01:50
lamontwell, let me rephase that... I'm still waiting for a prompt after running it...01:50
lamontmdz: yep01:50
mdzlamont: which sound driver?01:51
mdzlamont: is this a recent install, or upgraded from very old warty?01:52
lamontand totem runs fine.01:52
mdzif it's an old install, make sure you don't have /etc/rc?.d/*discover01:52
lamontsounder 3, IIRC.  upgraded this AM01:52
mdzah01:52
mdzyou probably have discover running at boot01:52
mdzwhich causes all sorts of sound driver evil01:52
lamontloaded: snd_intel8x0 snd_ac97_codec snd_pcm_oss snd_mixer_oss snd_pcm snd_timer snd_page_alloc snd_mpu401_uart snd_rawmidi snd_seq_device snd01:52

debianistmdz : driver install didn't work :(01:58
lamontOTOH, totem plays dvd's just fine.01:58
mdzdebianist: context?01:58
mdzlamont: perhaps you have esd running01:58
mdzwhich has the sound device open01:58
mdzcausing other processes to block01:58
lamontyep.01:58
jdubmdz: #1208 please01:59
mdzjdub: sprinkled01:59
lamontwell,very loud sound, but that could be totem's doing?02:01
mdzlamont: if you perform the test as specified, you will not be logged into GNOME, and so no other applications will be messing with the sound device02:01
jdubhttp://www.osnews.com/comment.php?news_id=825502:02
jdub'Finally more information about Canonical/Warthogs/Ubuntu/whatever! I hope the zdnet article is correct and it is actually *released* on Wednesday and not just a slideshow. Been dying to try this out for a long time now.'02:02
lamontah, sorry.  I read 'log back in' to mean "into gnome"02:02
mdzlamont: ok, my instructions sucked then02:03
mdzanyway, if totem played sound at a reasonable volume, that tells me what I needed to know02:03
mdzjdub: if it doesn't break willow, I'm going to ship it. any luck there?02:03
jdubmdz: been fixing bugs02:04

jdubgotta check old tabs during uploads ;)02:05
mdzKamion: morning02:06
jdubGAR my upstream bandwidth is shite02:06
jdubstupid samba02:06
mdzKamion: wanted to ask you...what's the status of restricted support in germinate/debian-cd/...?02:06
jdubmy entire change amounts to one '#'02:06
jduband i have to upload megs and megs of shite02:06
Kamionmdz: should all be there02:07
jdubcan we dodge that damage in future, pre-hct?02:07
Kamionmdz: you'd need to ask elmo whether he runs germinate over main+restricted+universe though02:07
=== lamont [~lamont@mix.mmjgroup.com] has joined #ubuntu
mdzKamion: so I can add linux-restricted-modules-2.6.8.1 to DesktopSeed and it ought to work?02:07
mdzKamion: elmo is hiding02:07
Kamionmdz: last I heard, germinate on jackass ran over main+universe, but that was before restricted was implemented02:07
Kamionmdz: yes, it definitely should, I think I've updated everything; if not, give me a shout, it'll be a five-minute job to fix02:08
mdzperhaps sabdfl can throw something at him :-)02:08
KamionI'd rather you did that tonight so tomorrow's dailies will be testable02:08
mdzKamion: would you be interested in a test build if i do it now, or wait for the next daily?02:08

elmo_mfkamion: I ignore restricted atm for germinate02:08
sabdfli threw something at him but it just bounced02:08
lamontwell, the speakers are powered... maybe that explains the loud initial volume.  But it's _definitely_ not muted...:-)02:09

elmo_mfso, hmm, 3 things: a) our 2.6.8.1 and/or hotplug doesn't recognise my powerbook's sound card.. self-built 2.6.9-rc1 does, but ISTR 2.6.8 did too when I self compiled.. 02:10

Kamionelmo_mf: mdz wants to add something in restricted to the desktop seed; can we get jackass to add the Task: ubuntu-desktop field to it so that it gets installed?02:10
elmo_mfb) with 2.6.9-rc1, my "muted" alsa isn't actually, well, muted.   but mdz, your unmute script works and makes the volume louder02:11
elmo_mfc) our 2.6.8.1 has broken caps lock on powerpc kernels - can I send a patch to herbert/you to see if we include it by default?02:11
elmo_mfkamion: hmm, ok02:11
elmo_mf(sorry, c) was aimed at/should be prefixed mdz:)02:12
KamionI should move the default wiki location in germinate ...02:12
Kamionfor values of "broken" meaning broken for weird people who switch caps lock and control :)02:12
Kamion(not to discourage anyone from fixing it though, it does sound like a bug)02:13
lamontmdz: no joy with the patch reverted.02:13
=== lamont updates the bug
elmo_mfkamion: dude, it doesn't work period.. even if you don't want to switch caps/control02:14
debianistmdz : actually , i just rebooted after the driver install -  no sign for the module, acceleration not working.02:14
Kamionelmo_mf: uh, really?02:14
elmo_mfkamion: yes, try it02:14
Kamionelmo_mf: obviously I haven't done enough editing in it ...02:14
debianistmdz : and i'm still on 2.6.7 , i thought it was supposed to upgrade it to 2.6.8 for the nvidia drv to work..am i wrong?02:14
Kamionbah, ok, that's a bit showstopperish02:14
elmo_mfkamion: patch is fairly hackish and needs conditionalized at the very least, but it Works For Me(tm)02:15
debianistdoko : here?02:16
debianistmdz : could you give me lamont's and doko's email addressed? i am sending my sec repot02:18
debianistmdz : *report02:19
lamontdebianist: lamont.jones@canonical.com02:20

lamontbut I could be misspelling that02:20
debianistok, i have another address for dokok02:21
elmo_mfdoko@debian.org works02:21
elmo_mfkamion: any ideas on the sound card thing?  does sound work for you?02:22
elmo_mfhmm, looking like a hotplug bug - modprobing snd-powermac fixes it02:25
mdzKamion: will you be around for a bit? still on the phone02:32
Kamionelmo_mf: did last time I installed warty on the powerbook, running Debian at the moment though02:33
Kamionmdz: I'll be around until c. 2:15/2:3002:33

debianistmdz : mdz@canonical.com ?02:36
mdzdebianist: yes02:39
elmo_mfhmm, it's not a PCI device - that'd probably be why - does hotplug have support for random non-{pci,usb,isa} type things?02:39
mdzalsa-driver uploaded with unmuting magic02:39
debianistmdz : oh already sent to mdz@alcor.net02:39
debianistanyway, the wiki doesn't require user and password anymore?02:40
mdzelmo_mf: hotplug supports /etc/hotplug*.agent types of things02:40
mdzhotplug does not support the crazy apple bus yet, as far as I am aware02:40
mdzelmo_mf: please file the caps lock thing in bugzilla and assign to Herbert02:41
mdzdebianist: yes, you need to run the 2.6.8.1 kernel02:41
Kamionmdz: hm, in fact I need to make germinate on little run over main+restricted ...02:42
debianistmdz : i think i've noticed dpkg doing just that, it upgraded the kernel02:42
Kamiondebianist: wiki> no02:43
mdzdebianist: thanks for the report, so there were only two which need further investigation?02:43
debianistmdz : however, i have 3 ubuntu's on this machine - and the one i wanted to have nvidia support, didn't update02:43
elmo_mfmdz: would some sort of /proc/cpuinfo based powerbook.agent hack be a reasonable stopgap ?02:43
lamontmdz: found why we die...02:44
lamontcdrom_open_write never actually tries to do the open..02:44
debianistmdz : yes. i couldn't determine about them02:44
mdzelmo_mf: probably the most reasonable fallback for Warty would be to avoid the kernel entirely and let d-i/hwdetect add it to /etc/modules02:44
debianistmdz : actually i think the glibc is fixed, however couldn't supply the proof02:44
Kamionyarr, more hw-detect hackery :)02:44

mdzKamion: can you point me in the right direction for getting hotplug firmware loading working in d-i?02:51
Kamionmdz: put the firmware on a partition you can mount from the installer02:53
Kamionmdz: run up to partitioning, ignoring network failures02:53
Kamionmdz: on tty2, mount the partition you put the firmware on, and copy it to /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware/02:53
Kamionmdz: probably copy the relevant kernel modules to the right place as well02:53
Kamionmdz: then go back to the d-i main menu and retry the "detect network hardware" step, and see if it works at all02:54

=== whiprush_ [~jorge@arslinux.com] has joined #ubuntu
mdzKamion: debootstrap, presumably?03:07
Kamionmdz: debootstrap can't install it because debootstrap (rightly) doesn't install kernels03:07
mdzgar03:07
Kamionit's base-installer's job to pick the right one03:07
mdzwell, there are kernels in BaseSeed03:08
Kamiondebootstrap doesn't install those either, they're explicitly excluded03:08
mdzso you're already coping with that somehow, yes?03:08
elmo_mferr, I think this is germinate going nuts again, blah03:08
elmo_mfall I did was add restricted, damn it03:08
Kamionbase-installer installs the kernel separately; it has to be this way because otherwise you get shit like power3 kernels accidentally ending up as /boot/vmlinux on powerpc, which is bad03:08
mdzright03:09
mdzso can it add the corresponding linux-restricted-modules for whichever kernel it finds?03:09

justdaveI don't know how they live with it :)04:45
mdzjustdave, jdub: so, regarding bugzilla for the preview release.  the simplest solution would seem to be to set bug-buddy aside for the moment and replace it with a menu item which points a browser at bugzilla.ubuntu.com.  does that sound doable to you guys?04:46
justdaveoh, now that makes sense. :)  Probably less confusing, too, because bug-buddy still have a heck of a lot of gnome-specific stuff in it, even when we feed it our component list04:48

pittiMorning, guys!07:41
mdzmorning07:43
jblackmdz: I am.07:45
pittimdz: ah, great! gpg finally works without suid; this did not work with upstream 2.6.8.1...07:45
jblackonly been there for 3-4 weeks though07:46
mdzpitti: right, but Herbert integrated the patch as requested07:46
pittimdz: shall I prepare an interdiff for you and elmo to review?07:46
mdzpitti: I think it should be fine to just revert --with-capabilities (and the build-dep)07:46
mdzif you want to remove your capabilities-related patches, that is fine too07:46
pittimdz: yes, I don't want intrusive changes07:46
mdzbut since it is basically undoing work, it should be quite safe07:46
mdzif you want to revert it so that it is exactly the same as it was before you touched it, that is fine07:47
pittimdz: another thing: my jackd modifications do not really have the desired effect07:47
mdzyour other patches are still valid, but they would not be used anyway07:47
pittimdz: jackd has a weird architecture that wants to give capabilities to _client_ threads (insane, but true)07:47
pittimdz: so I would like to upload a package with --with-caopabilities disabled and without any suid at all07:48
pittimdz: possible?07:48
mdzpitti: sounds great07:48
pittimdz: it's basically the same as with gnupg: just rebuild without the configure flag07:48
mdzpitti: but jackd wants setpriority(), not mlock(), doesn't it?07:49
pittimdz: it wants both. SYS_NICE and IPC_LOCK07:49
pittimdz: it wants to lock the memory of the sound buffers, for not allowing it to swap07:50
pittimdz: but it also wants to start a new thread in the client player program with these capabilities (ugh)07:50
mdzSYS_NICE should have a much greater effect than locking the memory07:50
pittimdz: I discussed this a while with the Debian maintainer07:50
mdzfor reducing latency07:50
pittimdz: yes, I don't want to give it to _arbitrary_ user processes07:50
mdzpitti: so capabilities are not inherited by threads in Linux?07:51
pittimdz: the key is that CAP_SETPCAP is required to give these capabilities to player (client) processes, not just to new jackd instances07:51
pittimdz: within one process, all threads of course have the same caps07:52
mdzpitti: oh!07:52
mdzthat is insane07:52
pittimdz: I really mean that jackd gives CAP_* to processes like xmms, rhythmbox e.g.07:52
mdzI thought you meant the threads which serviced the client07:52
pittimdz: not just to other jackd subthreads07:52
mdzbut the client itself, that is insane07:52
pittimdz: I also thought this at first07:52
pittimdz: that's why the current solution does not work and I want to disable this completely07:53
pittimdz: most modern computers should have enough RAM to play well also without realtime caps07:53
pittimdz: and according to the debian maintainer, professional sound engineers don't care about the security stuff anyway and will happily install patched kernels :-/07:54
mdzpitti: they should just run all their applications as root :-)07:55
mdzfrom a -19 priority shell07:55
pittimdz: gnupg: I would like not to touch the code (the new capability code could stay in), just remove the configure option and the suid flag. Is that okay for you?07:55
mdzpitti: that is fine with me07:55
pittimdz: interdiff for gpg: http://www.piware.de/gpg-nosuid.diff08:00
pittimdz: it's trivial, but for the protocol...08:00
mdzpitti: looks fine08:01
mdzyou could even remove the chmod entirely08:01
mdzoh, but it doesn't use debhelper08:01
mdzso safer to leave it in08:01
pittimdz: I don't know, it does not use debhelper and dh_fixperms08:01
pittimdz: ugh, it FTBFSses08:02
pittimdz: obiously my patch did not #ifdef #endif one of the declarations08:02
pittimdz: it wasn't even my code that failed. I updated the patch in the above URL, now it builds and works correctly08:12
pittimdz: shall I upload?08:12

mdzpitti: it is a bit strange for the binary to be 075408:33
mdzit should probably be 075508:33
mdzotherwise, looks good08:34
pittimdz: it was intended to restrict execution to audio members08:34
pittimdz: but of course this could now be changed08:34
mdzyes, there is no point when it is not setuid08:36
pittimdz: I changed it to root:root 75508:36

pittimdz: just tell me when I shall upload08:37

pittimdz: this might last a bit, if you went already to bed when I'm finished, can jdub approve the thing or do you want to do this this evening^w^wnext morning?08:39
mdzpitti: I do not want to be a bottleneck08:39
mdzjdub should be around08:40
mdzpitti: you intend to work on fixing security bugs today, yes?08:40
pittimdz: yes, same procedure as yesterday (and day before... :-) )08:41
pittimdz: I hope to see the results of DSA 2004 today08:41
pittimdz: lamont came pretty far, but did not finish yet08:41
pittimdz: and sivan's 2002 results still had two todo items08:41
mdzpitti: for purposes of the preview release, we will limit ourselves to urgent fixes only08:42
mdzlow-impact bugs we can fix after the preview release08:42
pittimdz: I agree; the handful of "to be examined closer" items in the wiki aren't showstoppers08:42
pittimdz: I discussed with the Debian maintainers about them, some vulnerabilities are still present08:43
mdzI am not so sure that mysql is serious enough for preview, really08:43
pittimdz: e. g. quagga has broken ACL handling, but only few of our users will probably use it :-)08:43
pittimdz: up to now its the most serious item on my list08:43
mdzit is only an insecure temporary file08:43
mdzand a few even less serious issues08:44
pittimdz: if you have more important tasks for me?08:44
mdzbut it should be easy to fix it non-intrusively08:44

pittimdz: #117808:48
pittimdz: but this bug does not even apply to us, just on 0.031-108:49

mdzor do we just hope that updating the driver will fix it?09:05
mdzok, I need some sleep, back in the morning09:05
fabbionemdz: there are 2 known problems. one with the hardware mouse and one with the screen getting blank09:05
danielsfabbione: there are different problems09:06
danielser, mdz09:06
fabbionemdz: i can see the changes to the mouse stuff, but i am not sure what can cause the screen blanking.09:06
fabbionemdz: the latter is "hope that will fix"09:06
danielsmdz: ok. but yeah, it's largely impossible to validate nv fixes except via lots of tests, since the driver is stupid09:06
fabbionemdz: i am pretty sure i can get people to test the new driver before uploading09:06
fabbionemdz: since i can create a binary only and ask people to test it09:07

rburtonsabdfl: i often start a web browser to read local documentation11:58
jdubsabdfl: perhaps they should be the same thing?11:58
pittisabdfl: to watch html files, read documentation, watch cups jobs, etc.11:58
rburtonon the train i read the gtk+ docs, python manual, etc etc11:58
lifelessmore usefully when you log out your session is saved... and if the browser is open it reopens.11:58
sabdflok11:58
jdublifeless: that's just a bug :)11:59

sabdflalright, i'm happy with this for warty11:59
pittisabdfl: hoary could come with a fancy network detection script in the postinst and install a local/webbased homepage based on its outcome11:59
sabdflpitti: could be unpredictable12:00
thomjdub: it's one of the best features of epiphany, you fascist12:00
rburtongar, i can't burn a cd with 2.6.8-212:00
pittirburton: argh, the symlink hack12:00
thom(besides the fact it's not firefox)12:00
jdub(epiphany will probably use networkmanager to detect that in the 2.10 timeframe)12:00
pittirburton: however, does it still work that way?12:00
jdubthom: what, breaking your saved session if you don't have a network connection when you try to recover it?12:00
pittirburton: i. e. is it mounted and can you access it?12:00
jdubthom: that's a bad bug :)12:00
thomjdub: well, that's a bug in gnome12:01
thomfor not being able to tell :P12:01
jdubregardless, epiphany shouldn't dump the state when it fails12:01
jdubyou just get a bunch of blank page tabs instead of "couldn't get there" errors with the url saved12:01
pittisabdfl: maybe it fails for some people, but if these notice that firefox tries to access a network page, they could change the homepage on their own12:01
thomjdub: oh, right12:02
thomugh12:02
jdubthom: you seem to be suggesting that my awareness of bugs in epiphany is somehow related to the decision to go with firefox. ;-) i do not endorse this point of view! </quimby>12:02

sabdflanybody see the kde-port-of-gecko announcement?12:11
jdubyeah12:11
sabdflnative gecko, for use in KDE apps12:12
sabdflwe need the same, really soon, for gnome12:12
jdubwe already have it12:12
cefyuppers.. will be good once it hits debian of course12:12
jdubthat's what gtkmozembed is12:12
sabdflit's not easily usable, is it12:12
jduband what epiphany uses12:12
jdubthere are problems with it, but it's not horrific to use12:12
mjg59The first version of galeon was entirely usable and about 2000 lines of code12:13
pittirburton: thanks12:13
mjg59(Of course, it was massively unstable, but so was Mozilla at that point...)12:13
=== thom points fabbione towards #1218
jdubsabdfl: simply embedding a browser is not very hard (yelp will use gecko soon), but trying to build a proper, full-featured browser around it is a bit hard, requires lots of integration work, etc.12:13
sabdflhow much would it cost to develop a clone of firefox in python-gtk with gtkmozembed doing the rendering?12:14
jdubhow much of a 'clone' do you want?12:14
rburtonwhat i wrong with ephy?12:14
jdubsabdfl: i think the better strategy would be to improve on what epiphany has already managed to achieve12:14
thomrburton: jdub hates12:14
mjg59thom: But we all know that jdub is Australian and therefore wrong12:15
jdubthom: no, that is wrong, please don't continue saying that12:15
rburtoni don't love but i'm growing to love it.  the one feature i miss i'm this far: |   | from implementing myself12:15
cefrburton: which feature?12:15
rburtoncef: middle click on new tab button to create a new tab and go to the url in the clipboard12:16
cefaha12:16
mjg59Mm. That'd be sort of nice.12:16
sabdflepiphany is nice but is too minimalist12:16
cefyeah I can see how that'd be useful12:16
rburtongaleon does it, and its very handy12:16
mjg59galeon is a less minimalist epiphany12:16
rburtonwith different bookmarks12:17
fabbionethom: erh... what should i do about it?12:17
mjg59But manages not to be crackful, unless they've broken it since I last used it12:17
sabdflthe firefox guys have a very nice balance of functionality in the base vs extensions12:17
sabdflbookmarks need to be WAY better12:17
sabdflgoogle-style free text search12:17
sabdfljust bookmark the page and forget about it12:17
sabdflto find it, start typing12:17
ceffirefox is just way too heavy though (footprint wise)12:17
sabdflthat's because of xul12:18
mjg59sabdfl: In the future there will be Beagle12:18
sabdflthat's why i want a native clone of firefox12:18
jdubit's not because of xul12:18
thomfabbione: is there any more info you need?12:18
jdubto run gecko, you get all of xul plus the native widget set12:18
fabbionethom: as many as possible. logs, strace, all the info about the autodetection and so on.. lspci -n12:18
sabdflyes but you aren't actually rendering xul unless you do so explicitly, like firefox12:19
fabbionethom: but it's not critical12:19
sabdflanyhow guys, that's a fantasy discussion for another time and channel :-)12:19
jdubsabdfl: every widget in the browser pane is rendered using the same system xul is12:19
pittiseb128: I lied a little while ago: gnome-cups-manager's become admin button does work12:19
Keybukmjg59: unless nat gets distracted by something shinier <g>12:19
pittiseb128: it does not send root's password to cupsd, but becomes root to be able to read the cups certificate12:19
jdubsabdfl: xul is just glorified xml+html+javascript12:20
pittiseb128: so, everything is alright :-)12:20
jdub(in terms of rendering)12:20
seb128pitti: ok, nice12:20
cefhey does ubuntu have a method to add java support to firefox? ie: a package or whatever?12:20
sabdflsystem yes, but if you don't use it it doesn't suck ram12:20
jdubsabdfl: whether you're using firefox or ephiphany, you're using xul12:20
jdubfirefox and ephiphany are very comparable in terms of resources12:20
jdubwhich points to a lot of optimisations to be made on the firefox side ;)12:21
fabbioneelmo: ping12:21
sabdfljdub: dude, xul will never be as slick for menus, dialogs etc as native12:21
mjg59Keybuk: Thankfully, it's mostly trow working on it12:22
fabbioneelmo: X ubuntu17 isn't in the archive yet.. do we know if it is a FTBFS or something else?12:23
jdubsabdfl: if you mean not having exactly the same behaviour, that's definitely true12:23

thaytanalright, another q02:50
rburtondebianist: its always been gnome 2.7.x in ubuntu, which is 2.8 beta02:51
thaytananything in the installer proggies to scan for bad blocks?02:51
lamontjdub: we're not going to get in trouble with the gnome release manager for having the bits there 40 hours early??? :-)02:51
jdublamont: heh, rawhide has everything already too02:51
jdublamont: 'sall on the gnome ftp server ;)02:51
jdubthe release announcement is just a formality ;)02:52
debianistshowstoppers will be updated until cd buils?02:52
jdubif there are any02:52

jdubwe have room to move if there are significant problems towards the end of the release too02:52

pittijdub: I also have to continue security review03:02
rburtonjdub: let him work on #1217 :)03:02
jdubpitti: that's currently marked as severity normal03:03
jdubpitti: you should raise it if you want matt and i to consider it for upload confirmation03:03
pittijdub: I already tried for over an hour to find a solution; as long as I don't have one, I cannot request an upload confirmation03:03
jdubpitti: i would consider it critical though03:04
jdubright03:04
pittijdub: I just wanted to know if the bug is severe enough to be regarded as a blocker03:04
pittijdub: it works fine for my two CD-ROMs BTW03:04
jdubpitti: is this an upgrade issue?03:04
rburtonyes03:04
jdubokay03:04
rburtonexisting systems will have /dev/cdrom in fstab03:04
pittijdub: as long as the installer does not write /media/cdrom into fstab (which is symlinked to /media/cdrom0) everything goes well03:04
pittijdub: I've got no idea. Maybe03:04
jdubless of a concern for us then03:05
jdubsorry rburton :)03:05
rburtonno prob. i'll remove cdrom from fstab for now03:05
rburtoni presume i can remove floppy too03:05
jdubmine has:03:05
jdub/dev/scd0       /media/cdrom0   iso9660 ro,user,noauto  0       003:05
pittirburton: it should be enough to put /media/cdrom0 instead of /media/cdrom there03:05
rburtonif pmount is supposed to do the right thing then i'll remove it03:06
pittirburton: oh yes, /dev/cdrom won't work, too; it should be hda/hdb/sda/whatever03:06
rburtonpitti: i have /dev/hdc03:06
pittirburton: if you remove it, you will only lose the icons in the computer menu if the CD-ROM is not mounted03:06
pittirburton: would be great if you could verify that it works that way03:06
rburtonsure03:06
rburtonhm, computer still has floppy and cdrom icons. it didn't refresh after i changed fstab03:07

sabdflwill make for better cooperation across platforms, certainly03:33
diemanhopefully its a compatible license03:34
sabdfljdub: ok, we'll leave that to the guru's and go with the flow, i'm just thinking tweaks and polish here03:34
jdubsabdfl: not sure there's much value in going beyond upstream incremental changes unless we move on that03:34

lamontshort answer: either in the wiki, or clear.  Universe is left as an exercise03:35
diemanneed my morning tea03:35
diemanKeybuk: i think it was at least 10+mb03:35
sabdflthe panel in WinXP is closer to the active app window frame colour03:35
pittilamont: yep, I digged through the tcpdump sources and security upload interdiffs03:35
diemanKeybuk: im on a memory constrained machine03:35
Keybukdieman: now, do you want to learn about memory management and try again? :p03:35

sabdfli've tried just setting the colour in panel->properties, but it looks shite03:36

diemansince i had nautilus turned off03:37
=== fabbione heads to the bank
diemanand its like a good 30+ mb.03:37
KeybukI'd be quite surprised. GNOME is a little flabby in terms of memory, but greatly so03:38

pittilamont, debianist: debianist, do you want to process the 2004 universe bugs? lamont, can you send the list to him?03:43
Keybukdieman: the three biggest maps in gnome-panel are:03:44
Keybuk409de000   1212K r-x--  /libc-2.3.2.so03:44
Keybuk40d67000   1556K r----  /locale-archive03:44

Keybukfour biggest, sorry03:44
lamontpitti: assuming he's on the cc list for the mail I just sent.03:44
Keybuklibc and the locale-archive are shared amongst every single app running03:44
Keybukand GTK+ is pretty much too -- and you wouldn't elminate that in XFCE either03:45
Keybukthe other is the stack, most of that's over-commit and it shouldn't be using much more than 32k or so03:45

pittidebianist: do you want to do the universe checking?03:47
Keybuka lot of people tend to point their finger at the high VSZ of GNOME apps and rant03:47
debianistpitti : yes, it's due with the public review?03:47
lamontSubject: Debian Security Advisory 2004 - done.03:47
Keybukwithout taking into account the reason for the high VSZ is that most of GNOME is shared library ... so most of that memory is shared between all the apps anyway03:47
diemanim just point at swap use03:47
pittidebianist: due?03:47
debianistpitti : sorry,03:47
debianistpitti : it's universe :)03:47
debianistpitti : no due03:48
pittidebianist: verifying these 33 packages in universe is bonus, so you don't need to if you don't want03:49
Keybukdieman: dunno ... had you done a massive upgrade?  That can temporarily increase your disk and memory usage03:50
debianistpitti : i'll do it.03:50

lamontdoko: which - the 24 hour delay on sending email?04:52
pittiseb128: sounds like provide, conflict and replace, don't?04:52
seb128conflict/replace sure04:52
pittidoko: everything's settled now04:52
seb128is provides needed for an app like that ? Provides are not versionned ... what's the interest ?04:52
pittiseb128: okay, provide might not actually be required04:52
seb128I'm not sure, that's why I ask :)04:53
pittiseb128: well, package names usually aren't either04:53
pittibut if it does not provide, upgrades will fail, won't them?04:53
pittii. e. evolution1.5 won't be upgraded to evolution automatically AFAICS04:53
dokolamont, pitti: yes, so we've checked the first 40 dsa's twice. doing something else now.04:54
pittiseb128: no, that was crap04:54
seb128pitti: and the provides help for that ? Provides are not versionned afail04:54
seb128afaik04:54
pittiseb128: you still have to have an evolution1.5 package which depends on evolution04:54
pittiseb128: yes, they are not versioned, but the package name becomes different04:54
Kamionthe provides will help anything else that Depends: evolution; I think it also supplies a hint to package management front-ends04:55
Kamionalthough conflicts/replaces is most of that04:55
pittiseb128: so we need a transition package evolution1.5 which depends on evolution04:55
seb128Kamion: the point is that nothing depends on evolution1.5 basically04:55
Kamionfair enough04:55
seb128just the connector/webcal that need a rebuild04:56
seb128ok04:56
pittiseb128: nothing depends on it?04:56
seb128hum, should we have a dummy evolution1.5 -> evolution ?04:56
pittiseb128: then the provides should not be necessary04:56
pittiseb128: you need for upgrades04:56

Keybukhttp://www.vnunet.com/news/115806006:34

pittithom: what's the status of #1203 (webdav)? shall I apply the patch?06:57
lamontmdz: 5.21.4.10.8-1 in debian also fixes the issue.  But they only changed 1 of the opens....06:58

fabbioneYES THE NV DRIVER BUILD!06:58
fabbionedaniels: wake up dude06:58

mdzlamont: the fix came from upstream or from Debian?06:59

fabbionetime to test it06:59
fabbionethom: arch?06:59
mdzthom: only on the netboot install?06:59
lamontmdz: upstream06:59
pittithom: I did. If you can change the thing tomorrow before the CD build, fine :-)06:59
thompitti: co-ordinated release07:00
mdzlamont: yes, let's take upstream's fix then07:00
lamontok07:00
thomi'm burning an x86 cd to test on my desktop now07:00
pittithom: okay. Just looking for bugs to help with :-)07:00

fabbionethom: what arch?07:00
thomfabbione: x8607:00
fabbionethom: xresprobe <driver> ?07:01
thombase-config is just finishing, then i will07:01
fabbioneif that question is asked, it means that the xresprobe didn't detect it07:01
fabbionethom: ok07:01
Kamionso, we need to reorg the cdimage layout before release07:01
fabbionewell you can do it in the other window07:01
fabbiones/window/console07:01
Kamionideally into something like /experimental/, /beta/, /preview/, /release/07:02
Kamionany opinions, or should I just do it?07:02
jdubKamion: tiny suggestion -> have a look at the ftp.gnome.org layout for inspiration ;)07:02
Kamionjdub: not sure which bit you mean?07:03
=== fabbione tests
Kamionhm, I probably can't break /daily/, /sounder-test/, /morphix/ since those have already been published07:04
thomres: 1024x76807:04
Kamiondamn07:04
lamontmdz: does our kernel allow CAP_SYS_RAWIO, or is upstream smoking something?07:04
thomwhich is correct07:04
Kamionhow about /preview/warty/ for tomorrow's release?07:04
thomfabbione: ^07:04
jdubKamion: surely warty/preview/07:05
jdubthen warty/final/07:05
Kamionthat makes it hard for people to mirror only final releases07:05
Kamionwhich is a fairly reasonable thing to want to do07:05
jdub*/final/ :-)07:05
KamionI also can't say I like warty/, hoary/, etc. ad infinitum at the top level07:06
jdubthen we can have hoary/array1/ hoary/array2/ ... hoary/preview/ hoary/final/07:06
KamionI'd rather /releases/warty/final/07:06
jdubKamion: we can archive them off every once in a while07:06
Kamionwhich leaves space for /experimental/ or whatever07:06
Kamionnot to mention /daily/07:07
seb128we can't have 2 mail alias ? Apparently people keep sending to sebastien@canonical.com, but since I've asked seb128@ the first one just fails07:07
Kamionwell, maybe daily is per-release07:07
jdubhoary/daily/20041205/ <- ?07:07
lamont+#if !defined(I_KNOW_ALL_ABOUT_SUDO)07:07
lamontthat's upstream's version07:07
jdubKamion: red hat's ftp layout might be useful to check out too07:08
Kamionjdub: the other problem with warty, hoary, etc. is that they sort abysmally badly07:08
jdubyeah07:08
jdubas do 4.1007:08
Kamion4.10 is ok07:08
jdubor, not so badly07:08
jdubuntil we get to 10.1007:08
Kamionsure, when we hit 2010 it sucks a little, but only once07:08
lamontdepends on whether the next one is 5.04 or 5.4...07:08
jdubheh07:08
seb128jdub: I'll upload evolution 2.0 in about 20 min, be ready to update webcal and connector :)07:08
Kamionit's pretty obvious to the human eye what's going on07:08
Kamionlamont: has to be 5.04 I think07:08
lamontyes07:08
jdubseb128: you can't do those? :)07:08
lamontand 10.04 bump sucks for 18 months07:09
jdubseb128: would be good if you could add them to your run07:09
seb128jdub: if you want, but I don't want to hijack your packages :p07:09
seb128ok, fine07:09
jdubseb128: dude, this is ubuntu, they're all ours :)07:09
seb128+- 2 packages07:09
Kamionok, so /cdimage/4.10/preview/ for tomorrow then?07:09
seb128that's nothing after the whole GNOME 2.8 stack :)07:09
Kamionjdub: Red Hat's has kind of the right idea but is way too deep07:10
jdubmmm, especially with the arch depth07:10
Kamionalthough I guess if you're starting at /pub/redhat/ it's ok, but the choice at that level is still a bit bewildering07:10
Kamionccm, ccvs, edk, gnupro, <yawn>07:10
jdubheh07:11
Kamion/final/ does mean we absolutely cannot make point releases07:12
KamionI suppose it could be 4.10r107:12
Kamionbut it would have to be in a different top-level cdimage directory; otherwise it's final-oops-we-lied07:13
Kamionand what about Mark's "redo CD images every time we do security updates" thing?07:13
pittiseb128: if you are too loaded with work, can I help you with some easy changes?07:14
pittiseb128: #1201 maybe?07:14
jdubKamion: not sure he wants to do that now07:14
seb128no thanks, I'm building evolution 2.0 right now07:15
Kamionjdub: phew07:15
seb128and #1201 is in it07:15
jdubKamion: perhaps come up with something that sounds sensible, and hit the sounder list with it?07:15
pittiseb128: okay, great.07:15
pittiseb128: do you need German translations for #1188? (OO.o menu entries)07:16
seb128pitti: thanks, but my todo list for tomorrow is ok, I'm almost update with 2.8 packaging07:16
=== lamont uploads dvd+rw-tools_5.19.4.9.7-2ubuntu5, and realizes that he could work on other things in the next 12 hours or so...
pittiseb128: okay, did not want to disturb you. My todo list is already empty07:16
seb128pitti: you can attach them to the bug report if you want, but not sure I'll have time for translations07:16
lamontpitti: I'm there with you...  Todo list has stuff, but nothing that's 'before preview'07:16
seb128pitti: but I've > 30 bugs opened, so if you want to dig on some of them feel free :)07:16
lamonter, that is, if sabdfl and I are done rehashing postfix...07:17
seb128(but no hurry for tomorrow)07:17
lamontsabdfl: you around?07:17

=== lamont is not functional without the stress relief that comes from pitching people around...
pittiseb128: I will attach the translations. I will look into your bugs07:18
pittilamont: so what?07:18
lamontpitti: was alluding to the fact that martial arts are like religion. "Mine is most correct!", for all values of "mine".07:18
pittilamont: maybe. I don't do it because of the philosophical part :-) It's good workout, trains both muscles and brain07:19
lamontI do it for (1) the workout, and (2) self defense application.07:19
lamont(2) is where the religion comes in...07:19

mdzKamion: regarding the metapackages for linux-restricted-modules, I was going to ask Herbert to do that anyway, but you're OK for preview with it as-is, right?08:20
Mddoes linux-restricted-modules contain anything else other than the proprietary nvidia driver?08:21
Kamionmdz: yes; the only glitch is that (as I realized today) we're not actually installing the linux-image metapackages08:21
Kamiondue to weirdness in base-installer08:22
mdzoh08:22
mdzis that easy to fix?08:22
mdzit would be nice if that worked for preview08:22
Kamionmdz: when I fix that, the linux-restricted-modules metapackages will need to be there as well otherwise it gets really hairy08:22
mdzhmmm08:22
KamionI looked at it, but it was getting into sed nightmare land without the linux-restricted-modules metapackage08:22
Kamionit's hard to take linux-image-2.6 and work out that you need linux-restricted-modules-2.6.8.1-208:22
mdzwhat I'm unsure of with the l-r-m metapackage is how it should sync up with linux-source08:23
Kamionthe 2.6.8.1-2 part needs to be in sync ...08:23
mdzmaybe linux-source should build all the metpackaages08:23
Kamionhmm, I see what you mean I think08:23
KamionI have some thoughts, but I think we should leave this until after preview, it doesn't feel like a good idea to try to get this right in under 24 hours08:24
KamionMd: also ath, ath_hal, net8021108:24
sivangmdz : i have aptitude tell me that linux-image is installed 2.6.8 , but it's using 2.6.708:24

hypatiaWho should I file gnome-terminal bugs against (no it isn't in the components either)?08:41
hypatiaI guess the c+p one can be filed against firefox08:41
lamonthypatia: the issue is that components need to be added by one of the admins, and they should sync things up sometime soon...08:41

Kamionmdz: all the top-level scripts are in /srv/cdimage.no-name-yet.com/bin; I just have that in $PATH09:44
Kamionmdz: normally, cron.daily is the only one you need to run (preferably with umask 002)09:44
mdzKamion: if you're going to do a build anyway, perhaps I should run it as a test09:44
Kamionsounds good09:45
Kamionyou need to set DATE_SUFFIX if you're building manually; DATE_SUFFIX=1 produces a build like 20040914.109:45

mdzseb128: is ximian-connector still building?10:56
mdzseb128: or did it produce different binaries as well?10:56
seb128ximian-connector was dep-waiting on evo 2.010:56
seb128it should be building now10:56
mdzah10:56
mdzlamont: please confirm10:56
mdzsometimes the auto-depwaiter needs a nudge10:57
Kamionmdz: try now10:57
lamontmdz: nope.10:58
Kamionmdz: are you using umask 002?10:58
lamontgnome/ximian-connector_2.0.0-0ubuntu1: Installed [optional:out-of-date] 10:58
lamont:-)10:58
seb128lamont: I've just reuploaded pango, let me know if this one is fine please10:58
seb128damned, dbs is a pain10:58
mdzKamion: 02210:58
lamonteven without the bs, he's a pain. :-)10:59
mdzKamion: I didn't even have a home directory until I logged into that box10:59
mdzlamont: so it's waiting in queue/accepted?10:59
seb128oups10:59
mdzoh, it's actually there10:59
seb128mdz: did we solve the ~/Documents creation issue ?10:59
mdzand yet apt wants to remove evolution-exchange when I upgrade10:59
mdzseb128: not to my knowledge11:00
lamontmdz: actually, I believe it's in the archive, just not referenced by Packages until about 3 min from now11:00
seb128arg11:00
mdzlamont: ah11:00
lamontthere is no queue/accepted...11:00
lamontbut cron.daily (sic) does the rebuild of Packages.11:00
Kamionmdz: 002's be good11:01
Kamion'd11:01
lamontmdz: btw, fire training tonight.  I'll make a point to be home by 2200, even if I wind up leaving a little early.11:01
mdzlamont: thanks11:01
lamont(trainings are tue 1900-2200 local)11:01
mdzKamion: done11:01
lamontbut often finish early11:02
mdzlamont: sorry, I've no choice in the scheduling on this one11:02
lamontnp at all11:02
lamontit's a whopping 10 minutes away, and leaving a little early isn't really a big deal11:02
lamontwe're usually done by about 21:30 or so11:02
=== lamont will leave in about 30 minutes to go fetch a kid and help a sounder, fwiw
lamontshould be back online from said sounder's place sometime after I leave...11:03
seb128mdz: I've made dummy evolution1.5/evolution1.5-dev for transition, should we add them to the seed ? Currently they are out of warty ...11:14
mdzseb128: yes, I'll do it11:17
seb128ok, thanks11:18
mdzadded to Supoprted11:18
pittiseb128: odd, I want to dist-upgrade, and evolution1.5 and evolution-exchange are to be removed correctly, but evolution is not installed additionally11:19
seb128that's because the dummy package is not in the seed11:19
pittiseb128: ah, I see.11:19
mdzseb128: new evolution looks good11:23
seb128nice11:23

elmo_dcbtw, if you use that dvd/cd creator program that launches when you insert a blank disk, it really will write an ISO of an ISO11:27
elmo_dcif you copy an iso into the window and choose "write this file".. which seems a bit user unfriendly to me.. (but not major of course)11:28
=== lamont leaves to do that house call that jdub was giving him grief about earlier.
lamontseb128: since you're the only one doing uploads, want me to just (today only special) forward you all the failures?11:29
lamontseb128: pango1.0....11:30

lamont"have a nice day".11:32
seb128thanks :)11:32
Kamionmdz: right, sorry about that, old university friend phoned up11:32
lamontI'll rip that out tomorrow sometime and let you know11:32
mdzKamion: I have all night :-)11:33
Kamionmdz: can you chmod -R g+w everything? there are some directories still owned by you and g-w so I probably won't be able to remove them11:33
mdzKamion: for what value of everything?11:33
lamont /?11:33

mdzfind /srv/cdimage.no-name-yet.com -user mdz \! -perm +020 |wc -l11:34
mdz242911:34
mdzKamion: that stuff?11:34
Kamionmdz: /srv/cdimage.no-name-yet.com I guess11:34
Kamionyep11:34
KamionI'll put a umask setting in cron.daily to make sure11:34
mdzfind /srv/cdimage.no-name-yet.com -user mdz \! -perm +020 -print0 | xargs -0 chmod g+rwX11:34
mdzdone11:34
Kamionoh, crap, just realized you won't be able to run sync-auckland11:36
Kamionbecause ssh is annoying and doesn't like group-readable/writable key files11:36
Kamionhm, let me install a workaround for that11:37
Kamionmdz: see /srv/cdimage.no-name-yet.com/secret/README11:41
mdzKamion: done. shall I try again?11:42
mdzand if so, should I re-use .1 or use .2?11:42
Kamionmdz: yep; reusing .1 is fine11:42
Kamion(since it hasn't been published)11:42
mdzrunning11:43
=== Kamion kibbitzes with tail -f
Kamionbleh, that's annoying, some stuff isn't respecting umask11:45
elmo_dcerr, is 20040914 known to be broken?11:45
Kamionlike, err, scratch/apt/11:45
Kamionelmo_dc: no, why?11:45
elmo_dckamion: I just got a "downloading bsdutils" failed.. I haven't checked the CD yet tho11:46
Kamionmdz: at this rate I'm going to have to add a kludge chmod to the end of cron.daily or something ...11:46
Kamionoh, hey, openoffice.org is built on amd64 now, isn't it?11:46
mdzelmo_dc: 20040914 worked fine for me11:47
mdzbut of course it now installs new stuff directly from the archive, so my 20040914 is not your 2004091411:47
mdzKamion: yes11:47
mdzKamion: if you had a kludge in for that, it can and should be removed11:47
Kamionyep, that just occurred to me11:47
elmo_dcmdz: blink it does?11:48
Kamionnot at the bsdutils level though11:48
Kamionthat's installed by debootstrap, isn't it?11:48
Kamionthat's only from the CD11:48
Kamionmdz: kludge gone, not in time for your current build though11:49
elmo_dcyeah my cd is fucked11:50
Kamionmdz: heh, was ssh waiting for confirmation there?11:51
elmo_dcthat sucks, nautlius just said it had completed, not that it only burnt 1/3 of the bloody disc11:52
mdzKamion: dunno, I had no output11:52
mdzKamion: if there was any, I assume it was written to the log and not to my tty11:52
mdzKamion: let's do another one, oo.o on amd64 is worth it11:53
Kamionmdz: would appreciate it if you could do that chmod again11:53
mdzwe certainly have the disk space11:53
mdzKamion: done11:53
Kamionmdz: wait just a sec11:53
mdzKamion: too late, if you meant the chmod11:53
Kamionnah11:53
Kamionok, rptprobs.sh was doing an explicit chmod 644, fixed11:54
mdzworkrave break11:54
Kamionfor the rest, I've kludged cron.daily11:54
jdubseb128: control-center on its way11:57
dokokamion, mdz: localization of the installer: what would be the last date for updated message catalogs for packages which are part of the installer? I did prepare tarballs for each language whith outdated message catalogs, one file for each package which belongs to the install system. I'd propose to send them ount to the sounders list and ask for translation, then merge them back into the package and make one upload with the updated catalogs.11:57
