ddaakiko: you must me talkng to the wrong person...02:02
kikohow fares it?02:02
kikoddaa, you've been activity-frustrated about zope security issues.02:02
ddaaHa... it's unrelated. Not my code.02:02
kikoddaa, you might just be calling methods that aren't available because they aren't listed in the relevant interfaces.02:03
kikois there such a thing as "not my code" in the big plan of things, though? 02:03
ddaaMy mission is to get a test env for importd.02:03
kikoit could just be you're requiring stuff that hasn't been exposed externally before.02:03
ddaaI have not touched launchpad code in any significant way since the last arch team sprint before oxford.02:03
kikojust from a passers-by POV I mean -- I don't actually know what your problem is, though you might want to write to launchpad-list in hope of answers.02:04
ddaaI am just using the existing launchpad stuff, doing what I remember of lifeless instructions....02:04
kikoyou should write to launchpad for help, usually you get prompt answers and it's nicer than waiting around on IRC :-)02:04
ddaaYeah... I guess so... I expect to be able to annoy lifeless enough so he will consider seriously the issue of setting up a test env for importd...02:05
ddaaThe problem is deeper. I'm not quite sure of what I am supposed to do launchpad-wise... just that I must test the imports with buildbots...02:06
kiko#launchpad should be responsible for launchpad IMHO, not anyone in particular (though particular experts do exist of course), so complain away and we should be able to help.02:06
kikoI see02:06
ddaaquite a frustrating situation...02:07
kikocan't you get someone to spec it for you? rob I suppose?02:07
ddaaI'm going bed now. Thanks for the help though.02:07
kikowish I could have provided more -- night02:07
ddaaI asked him last time, he did not seem to think anything more than getting the right config was troublesome...02:07
!lilo:*! And, in further news, we've found a place with a used copy of that accounting book. It's really much cheaper. Really. Someone want to help out? Message me. 8)02:08
kikoapparently defining the problem well would be a good pre-requisite to explore :)02:08
ddaaThe problem is well defined:02:08
ddaaRun imports for chosen projects, as defined from info files (or some other sources, but that can come later).02:09
ddaaAnd check that the result are sane.02:09
ddaaWell... actually that's just words for me...02:09
ddaaNo idea what are the prerequisites and outputs of the import process...02:09
kikothat's what I mean.02:09
ddaa*shrugs*02:10
ddaaright... apparently it seemed to be something obvious, so I though I would be able to figure out. Lifeless seemed to expect that much.02:10
ddaaI try to live up to his expectations generally.02:11
kikodo you know how the import process works?02:13
ddaasomething involving cscvs to create arch archives...02:14
ddaawith inputs from sourcesource02:14
kikothat's as much as I know as well.02:14
ddaathe sourcesouce must be moved to a project and enabled02:14
kikodo you know what "sanity" means in the context of a cscvs import?02:14
ddaathen when running a botmaster/slave pair, the slave should get the job and start doing things.02:15
ddaaI'm stuck at the "enable job" point.02:15
ddaaThe sanity check is looking at the generated changelog. Lifeless promises that failures cause obviously wrong changelogs.02:16
kikoI see02:16
ddaabuildbot is deep voodoo...02:16
kikothat it may be02:16
kikobut it appears you're stumbling inside lp, not bb :)02:17
ddaayup...02:17
ddaathere's a zillion things that can go wrong there for someone like me who do not know the land. The error messages do not help....02:18
ddaaOnce it gets to buildbot, I should be able to figure out problems, since I expect most failures to come from tla...02:19
kikoyes.02:19
ddaa(except conversion problems...)02:19
kikowhat exactly is triggering the Unauthorized errors?02:19
kikocan you show me a code snippet?02:20
ddaaThe first thing I try to do is move a souresource from the do-not-sync project to another project.02:20
ddaaVia the web interface.02:20
ddaaNo code.02:20
kikoit could just be broken from the Great Renaming. 02:21
kikothere is some code, it just might not be written by you :)02:21
ddaaI'm logged in as Foo Bar. I tried importing the sources with owner=Foo Bar, instead of Robert Collins, but then I believe I got some other error...02:21
kikowhat line triggers the error, I mean?02:21
ddaaI do not quite remember...02:22
ddaaThe launchpad stuff is hermetic to me...02:22
ddaaI really appreciate the help, but I need to sleep now.02:22
kikoyou can browse the source code -- we'll let you look at it for free <wink>.02:22

ddaaWill give you a tree which is latest rocketfuel plus any additional patchlog in the latest revision of your branch.12:05
spivddaa: I'm seeing conflicts too, and my tree was previsouly up-to-date with rocketfuel, I though...12:05
ddaaDunno if that qualifies as "one simple command" :-)12:05
Kinnisonddaa: For a value of simple known only to tla developers :-)12:06
spivddaa: also, I've discovered another downside to changing the tagging-method for .rej/.orig -- tla undo now refused to work in the prescnece of conflicts :(12:06
ddaaIt's a bit like photo-touching programs. You have words with which you can make sentences.12:06
limiif you make your sentences in photo programs, you have a problem anyway ;)12:07
ddaaspiv: which makes some sense. You can do "tla inventory -s | grep -e '\.(orig|reg)$' | xargs rm" (untested) to remove the conflict files.12:08

ddaaspiv: your request makes perfect sense.12:10

ddaaTla makes sense from a tomlord perspective.12:11
ddaaThat tend to be slightly different things...12:11

spivI don't care about Tom Lord ;)12:11
ddaathe hct folks supposedly are working towards easing your pain.12:12
spivSeriously, what's the best thing to do here, wrt to getting undo to "do the right thing" for users?12:12
limisabdfl: (SubRosaSoft) yeah, looking forward to see how Warty works on my Powerbook - I believe there is a problem with the WiFi card (Broadcom?)12:12
spivPester g-a-u?  Use raw?12:12
ddaaspiv: you should define "the right thing" a bit more accurately...12:12
spivddaa: Ok, let's start with my naive user's view of what "undo" actually means :)12:13
spivddaa: Then look at where "tla undo" falls short :)12:13
ddaaIn my opinion, the path of least resistence is to implement stuff in a wrapper until we hit the point where we need to reimplement some major tla functionality.12:14
sabdflKinnison: w.r.t. scheduleddeletiondate please check that the date is never too far in the future12:14
spivI expect undo to mean, essentially, "revert".  Restore the working tree to the same state as if I'd just done a few tla get, modulo files tla doesn't care about (,,*, and nested working trees, etc).12:14
sabdflassert (scheduleddeletiondate<now+2 days) sort of thing12:14
spivs/few/fresh/12:14
Kinnisonsabdfl: do you want that done when it's set; each time it's checked for having expired, or as part of a cruft checker?12:15
sabdflKinnison: your call12:15
sabdflSteveA and i did discuss have an "oscar the grouch" process, which basically runs a set of tests on the db12:15
sabdflsort of higher-level sanity checking than db constraints12:15
=== Kinnison thinks it belongs in a cruft/consistency checker because the distribution will have a stay-of-execution value which we should be asserting against
sabdfland one test might be that.12:16
=== carlos [~carlos@69.Red-80-33-181.pooles.rima-tde.net] has joined #launchpad
=== Kinnison is certainly expecting there to be an 'oscar the grouch' process
=== Kinnison is relying on it
spivddaa: my gripe is that occasionally tla undo refuses to undo for what seems to this naive user to be no good reason.  I'm not sure where the poor conflict handling fits in this picture :)12:16
ddaaare backup and unrecognized, "files tla do not care about". What should happen to them?12:16
KinnisonSo even if there isn't a generic one; there'll be a lucille one12:16
spivddaa: I would expect them to be untouched.12:16
ddaaSo if you undo after conflicts, you'll end up with same conflict files. Which, per your other wish, will prevent commit.12:17
spivddaa: Hence my comment about not being sure where poor conflict handling fits in this ;)12:17
spivddaa: Can I take teh discussion on a tangent for a moment? :)12:18
ddaaNo pb. You are the one asking :)12:18
spivThanks :)12:18
Kinnisonsabdfl: I'll put a note in the wiki that the scheduleddeletiondate should be sanity-checked in 'oscar'12:18
spivThe use of unrecognised for .rej and .orig is a pretty crude hack that I found suggested on g-a-u.  The undo problem highlights just how crude it is :)12:19
ddaaPS: I'm not trying to prove that what want to do is Bad, I'm just trying to make you spell out clearly what you want so I can help more effectively.12:19
spivddaa: Understood -- and appreciated. . I haven't thought these ideas out fully yet, and you're helping me do that :)12:19
ddaaspiv: yup, crude hack is an accurate qualification.12:19
spivWhat I think I'd prefer is something more like SVN's model here.12:20
=== ddaa is svn illiterate
spivi.e. in the metadata about that file in the working tree, flag it as conflicted (in the inventory?)12:20
spivSo that you'd have to say tla resolved-conflict filename12:20
ddaaI think the inventory classification concept is basically a good idea, but they way it is done get very much in the way now.12:21
spivUntil then, tla would keep reporting that file as conflicted, regardless of .rej/.orig files, or evil CVS <<<<< markers, or even if the file is removed :)12:21
=== ddaa push spiv over to the tangent.
spivThen the crdue tagging-method hack I'd use would probably be to mark .rej and .orig as source, sinstead :)12:22
spiv(or maybe I wouldn't use any...)12:23
spiv(aside: I don't know how .rej/.orig cope with multiple conflicts on the same file from multiple merges, because I've never tried doing anything that hard :)12:23
spivSo, back to undo.12:24
ddaametadata is one of those words which reach far into what does not exist yet in Arch, and what is very polemic. For example it touches issues of transcoding, magic tree data munging and so on, which are popular among new users but quite impopular among devel afaitt.12:24
spivYou must have a different definition of metadata to me :)12:24
ddaaWhat is and what is not metadata is not very clear to start with...12:25
spivI'm not looking for a generic "associate value foo to file bar with key x" stuff.  I'm just talking in the sense of what {arch} and .arch-ids already are.12:25
spivi.e. forom the point of view of a user working with their source code, the source is the data, and everything else arch records other than the actual contents of the files is metadata.12:26
ddaaYou are speaking of associating a flag to a file. You have to think about how it works in terms of file ids. For example tagline-tagged file have no associated id file, yet you want to associate a conflict flag to them. How do you do that in a way which is rename-resilient?12:27
=== lifeless [~robertc@dsl-73.0.240.220.rns01-kent-syd.dsl.comindico.com.au] has joined #launchpad
spivddaa: By using the file's id -- each file has a unique ID, right?12:28
ddaaright12:28
spiv(there's an edge-case when there's a newly-created file locally not commited, then a conflicting merge with the same file name added, but I don't carea bout that case ;)12:29
ddaabtw, multiple conflicts for the same file are not coped with. Older rejects are moved in a precious directory with some random crappy name.12:29
spivSo, with no knowledge of how tla's internals work, I'd expect that, e.g. a {arch}/conflicts directory would do the job.12:30
spivWith a file in that dir per fiel that is conflicted.12:30
spivkeyed by some fs-safe encoding of file-id.12:31
ddaaWould have to be something like {arch}/++conflicts or something.12:31
spivSure.12:32
spivDoes that sound workable and reasonable to you, or am I missing something?12:32
limitoday's Ubuntu misspelling: "Bununtu"12:33
spivBananatutu!12:33

spivddaa: So, another issue. :)12:44
sabdfli have an existing account i think in the db12:44
ddaaAnd that will let some time for the devel process situation to get sorted...12:44
spivddaa: why is it I'm getting conflicts in files I've never touched when star-mergeing from rocketfuel?12:45
spivddaa: Even though I don't think I've got any local unmerged changes in my version?12:45
ddaaspiv: probably because you send merge request, then merged before it was completed.12:45
spivddaa: It's possible, but I'd be surprised.  I've been very careful about not doing that :)12:46

ddaaNo need for -S here.12:48
spiv(purely hypothetically at this stage, I'll wait for your diagnosis)12:49
spivOh, of course :)12:49
ddaaspiv: yup that could work.12:49
spiv(plus I'll want to double-check I don't have any unmerged changes)12:49
ddaabut bear with me a minute, I was in the process of typing the name of your version....12:50
ddaa197 patches, that's going to take a while...12:50
spivMaybe now would be a good opportunity to point me at some good docs on cacherevs ;)12:52
ddaaThere was a thread on gau just yesterday about the issue of cachedrevs and mirrors.12:53
spivOk, I'll take a look...12:53
ddaaWell... I think so... maybe that was on #arch.... but there definitely is some cachedrev related talk on gau...12:54
spivThere was, but it didn't seem to involve mirrors.12:55
lifelessraw should autocache rev12:56
lifelesswe need to get everyone using raw.12:56
lifelessthats more and more evident.12:56
ddaaBasically, mirrors do not get cachedrevs after mirroring the revision the first time.12:56
lifelessddaa: integration allows this.12:56
ddaaintegration gives you a way to force updating the mirror for a specific _revision_.12:57
lifelessddaa: yes - which you would then do when you cacherev locally12:57
ddaaThat would work well in your situation since you are the one pushing the mirror.12:57
ddaaOf course that would not help mirrors maintained by other people.12:58
lifelesswell they can mirror locally, its only ever a problem when mirror-name != canonical name12:58
lifelesshows the test-environment ?12:58
ddaaThe archive format is quite stupid in the way it stores cachedrevs, and makes it very expensive to check for what cachedrevs are present.12:58
ddaalifeless: I decided to shortcut lp entirely. Actually when looking at master.cfg and wrapping the sql limit into something human readable things make a lot more sense.01:00
lifelessddaa: are you able to run test-imports yet? thats the crux.01:00
ddaaProbably I'll end up with a handful of scripts and a specific filter.01:00
ddaalifeless: no01:00
ddaaspend waaaay too much time fighting with launchpad.01:00
ddaaI should not have gone down the "keep production filter" road to start with.01:01
ddaalifeless: I'd like if you could bless a "botmaster config for testing" version.01:02
ddaaProlly on rocketfuel, so I could put a configuration useful to everyone there.01:02
lifelessddaa: for this testing, we use the production config.01:02
ddaaThe production dists points to lifelesslap.01:02
lifelesswhich I don't recall making any changes to that aren't in tla already.01:03
lifelessyes01:03
ddaaWhich is not really a version where I can put changes.01:03
lifelessddaa: exactly, its production, you're not meant to put changes.01:03
ddaaAnd whose up-to-dateness i question.01:03
ddaaMh...01:03
lifeless'which I don't recall making any changes to that aren't in tla already'01:03
ddaaYes...01:03
ddaa(13:02:43) lifeless: ddaa: for this testing, we use the production config.01:03
ddaaYou realise that is wishful thinking?01:04
ddaaI'm not on the production machine, not with the production data, the config has to be different.01:04
ddaaMhh... sounds like there is confusion between "arch config" and "botmaster config"...01:05
lifelessddaa: the database name is imported from canonical.lp, so the botmaster config doesn't need to change at all other than the locations to create archives.01:05
ddaaand private.py stuff, and the name and location of slaves01:06
lifelesstrue, and those are already documented.01:07
ddaaWell, if you insist that I use the production filter I can do, but since I'm going to poke the db w/o using launchpad, I may as well use some hand made filter to make life easire.01:07
ddaaFor some value of "documented"...01:07
ddaaThe ImportProcess page has grown almost completely stale.01:07
lifelessyou can just disable the production filter - set that parameter to ''01:07
lifelessor None01:07
lifelessddaa: the ImportProcess page shouldn't be stale at all, almost nothing has changed.01:08
lifelessnow, these deadlocks.01:08
ddaaThen why was I unable to run buildbot? Either something has changed or i was being stupid.01:08
lifelessddaa: I don't know, I'm happy to help you debug whats going on.01:09
lifelesss/happy/keen to/01:09
ddaaOkay, let's talk about this "deadlock" problem.01:09
ddaaSince I was unable to run imports, I was unable to test that.01:09
lifelessI suspect pyarch, because it didn't happy before, and pyarch is the only buidlbot component in the code path that has changed.01:10
lifelessthe symptoms are:01:10
lifelesswe get an extra python process, not in the group, blocked on a futex.01:10
lifelessthe import process stops cold for one job.01:11
lifelessif I kill -9 that extra process, the import process resumes.01:11
lifelessI wanted to ask, why are you using a Queue ? Its not needed for twistd.01:11
lifelessor at least, I don't think its needed.01:12
ddaaThe queue is used to translate the asynchronous flow of events in the reactor into a synchronous sequence used in the thread using the pyarch API.01:12
lifelessyou should use a deferred for that.01:13
ddaaSince the pyarch API is blocking, the queue is used to block the thread when no data is present.01:13
ddaaI do not see how deferred would help here. I have talked about it with spiv, and he agreed that a synch-queue was the least bad solution there. But then maybe I did not explain the problem properly.01:14
lifelesshmm.01:14
ddaaBesides, if python forks, and your are using TwistedSpawningStrategy, it's all happening in twisted stuff. There should not be _any_ low-level process handling left.01:16
lifelesswell something is deadlocking, and the only thing I can think of is a dropped message01:18
ddaa"dropped message"?01:18
lifelesslets get you able to test this.01:19
lifelesswhat is the current status ?01:19
ddaaBeen talking with lifeless since the last status.01:19
ddaaI'm about to set the filter to the empty string.01:20
lifelesstry that, I'll be here01:20
ddaaAnd import only one info file.01:20
ddaaSo I'm currently resetting the database.01:20
lifelesshuh01:20
lifelessdon't reset the database01:20
ddaatoo late.01:20
lifelessthat would waste time and lose all your changes01:20
ddaait's running01:21
lifelesssuch as imported archives etc etc etc01:21
ddaaMy changes are unimportant.01:21
ddaa?01:21
lifelessthe database has important persistent data in it.01:21
ddaawhy would imported archives be important? (ignoring for a moment that there are currently none)01:21
lifelesswhen imports complete for instance, they get 'taxied' into the database so that launchpad can see everything about them.01:22
ddaaHow is that useful for testing imports. I'll try to stay away from launchpad for this tests. It's way too much trouble.01:22
lifelessits important because its part of the end to end test.01:23

lifelessI need replacements for those  for buildbot..02:37
spivRight.  You need that for taxi?02:37
lifelessBINGO.02:37
ddaa1. okay for archive_mirror_dir, now what is th "slave_home" argument to processDB for?02:37

spivlifeless: Is taht soon enough?02:38

lifelessspiv: woohoo.02:38
lifelessand is my 8am ok for you ?02:39
spiv9.5 hrs from now?02:39
ddaa2. about pyarch/twisted you suggest that, when arch._tla is imported, if sys.modules has a key which is "twisted" or starts with "twisted." then spawn is initialized to an instance of TwistedSpawningStrategy instead of PyarchSpawningStrategy. Right?02:39
spivlifeless: Yeah, just :)02:40

lifelessI'm pushing my buildbot changes to rf now, so you'll have the latest to play^Wfix.02:40
lifelessddaa: right.02:40
spivlifeless: Great.  Thanks!02:41
ddaa[importd]  slave_home has something to do with os.env['HOME']  should it be the same? Is it used to set the env variable? Should there be a .arch-params directory there?02:41
lifelessddaa: it may differ from os.env['HOME] .02:41
lifelessddaa: you should ahve a directory in the directory slave_home points at called 'gpg'02:42
lifelessin there you need the arch@canonical.com.pub and arch@canonical.com.secret gpg files02:42
lifelessls02:42
lifelessbah02:42
lifelessalso you need a dir called 'archives', its in there the imported archives will be created02:43

=== jblack waves to sabdfl
sabdflsun is on holiday too, y'know03:54
sabdflhey jblack03:54
jblackkiko: Great. Thanks. I'm thinking about the star-merge bug that you guys hit so often. That got me to wondering why you guys merge so frequently. Is it because everybody's highly dependant upon everybody else for day to day work, or is it just some fear that people will get out of date irt the center of the star? 03:55
jblacki.e. does everybody need everybody's new work, or are people acting as a conflict avoidance system by staying as close to center as possible? 03:56
SteveAthere's lots of moving around of code happening right now03:56
kikojblack, there's been at least some refactoring going on in common areas, but mostly it's because the codebase is small enough and people work together in the projects.03:56
kikoso celso and daniel and I are bound to step on each other's feet unless we merge frequently.03:57
SteveAalso, many people find conflicts very awkward to deal with03:57
kikothis is aggravated by the very unreasonable handling of conflicts03:57
SteveAso they prefer to avoid them 03:57
kikooh, SteveA beat me to it.03:57
jblackOk. so its conflict avoidance.03:57
jblackFor the most part. I had a hunch. :) 03:57
kikojblack, note that this is something that nicer conflicts and a more modular codebase could help, but you can't expect the latter in projects that are only a few months old.03:58
kikono software starts out nicely modular the first time it's written..03:58
jblackOh, actually, rf was more modular, remember? 03:58
SteveAit often starts off wrongly modular03:58
jblackoh, I know what you mean. Yeah.03:58
kikomodularity is not an objective measurement03:58
kikoit has to do with grouping things that *should* be coupled03:59
kikoand that's usually a mix of domain and design-specific knowledge that, well, requires experience.03:59
jblackOh. That's a minihowto I should write. Conflict resolution.03:59
kikosince us people in the software business are always building newfangled things..03:59
lifelessnight all04:00
kikojblack, you could just make tla not commit if unresolved conflicts were present (and clearly indicate them) and I would buy you a house in heaven04:00
lifelessddaa: oh, there is a buildbot test failure you could look at once you get back.04:00

BradBspiv: so n/m, we fixed it. it was the http vs https thing that i mentioned first off04:02
jblackThat's what the unrecognized method is for. 04:02
kikoit shouldn't require local configuration; conflicts are an essential part of SCS! 04:02
jblackYes, I agree. It should be in the boilerplate =tagging-method as well.04:03
=== BradB goes back to loading some new sample data
jblacksorry. Didn't mean to distract you from lp for so long. 04:03
kikothat's not distracting, it's an essential part of lp04:04
jblackOnce arch development is moving again, I'll submit the tagging-method boilerplate change. You'll have to do it for existing branches though.04:05
jblack(users wouldn't like us if we hacked their tagging-methods behind their back!)04:05
kikoyeah, no need to add the complexity of that04:05
sabdflstub: still around?04:12
SteveAKinnison: some things you need to know about __del__: 1. it is called when the last reference to the object with the __del__ method is deleted.  It can be difficult to know when this will be.  2. __del__ is not necessarily called at all, if the interpreter exits.  3. exceptions raised in a __del__ are logged to stderr and swallowed.  4. objects with a __del__ are not collected by the cyclic garbage collector, and so any cycles that involve s04:13
SteveAuch an object will not be collected.  The test runner notices this, and prints a warning.04:13
stubYup04:13

ddaaokay, i have conflicts05:25
jblack--nonsparse means "grab all of them on the way", which is definitely a drive hog. :) 05:25
ddaajblack: yes, but when you have a big version, you want the initial get to be non-sparse because you want the full revlib there for the next star-merge.05:25

ddaaNah. Tag from rocketfuel.05:54
spivOk, I'll do that.05:55
sabdflBradB: just prefer to keep things like that out of UI, and if its in the schema it usually shows up in UI somewhere05:55
spivThanks for the diagnosis.05:55
sabdflsometimes its necessary but we avoid it as much as possible with name's05:55
ddaastar-merge really ought to provide sensible diagnosis for those cases.05:55
=== spiv nods :)
ddaaBut somehow it seemed we did not manage to get the idea through to tom :-(05:56
spivOh :(05:56
ddaaabentley purportedly implemented that diagnosis in his "improved" merge operator in fai.05:57
BradBsabdfl: Okay, well, I'm thinking I need to have it in there for things like IBugPackageInfestation, because I need to get at ID's when I'm building the little table with edit links to each i9n05:57
ddaahct definitely ought to do it too.05:57
=== ddaa thinks about cca, canonical community arch....
sabdflBradB: understood. highlevel design goal we can defer and come back to once we have our head wrapped around the basics05:58
BradBsure05:58
spivddaa: I guess tagging will solve my cacherev issue ;)05:58
spivSo it's not all bad ;)05:58
ddaaspiv: right, that's another good side effect.05:58
ddaaActually, methink tagging could be subsituted for star-merging in several cases and might lead to less pain.05:59
ddaaOnly problem: tag patchlogs list all patchlogs present in the tagged revision.06:00
ddaaWhich are a few thousands in rocketfuel...06:00
ddaacould very well end up being a disk hog.06:00
=== ddaa retracts the "systematic tagging" idea
spivddaa: Oh, while I've got your token..06:01
spivddaa: Our pqm submit script sends a message saying 'star-merge "$(tla tree-version)" "$(cat {arch}/+upstream)"'06:01
ddaaYeah.06:01
=== ddaa has a custom script here he's been supposed to clean up and merge for months.
spivWould it be a better idea to at the revision on to that?06:02
spivTo catch e.g. trying to merge unmirrored commits.06:02
ddaaWow.06:02
spivs/at/add/06:03
ddaaActually my custom scripts does the mirroring.06:03
ddaabut you have a very good point.06:03
spivAlso, would this help the cross-merge problem? :)06:03
ddaaThat would not help cross-merge.06:03
spivDrat.  :)06:03
spivI doubted that it would (it'd be just too easy), but I thought I'd ask ;)06:04
ddaaThe cross-merge problem is caused (among other things) by the finite speed of the light...06:04
spivSo, the right way to spell that is :)06:04
spivGah, weird lag issues.06:04
=== ddaa only sees a box with some tiny numbers
spivSo, adding "--$(tla logs | tail -1)" would do the right thing?06:05
ddaaspiv: generally we do $(tla logs --reverse | head -n 1)06:06
spivHeh.  Fair enough.06:06
ddaamight me a bit faster...06:06
ddaaalso06:06
ddaayou could just do: star-merge "$(tla logs --full --reverse | head -n 1)" "$(cat {arch}/+upstream)"06:07
ddaaprobably you should request confirmation from lifeless before merging such a change into rocketfuel.06:08
ddaaThe pqm toolset is a very critical infrastructure, I do not see how that could cause a problem (I got his blessing for sending a full revision name as an option) but if I were him I would be quite anal with that.06:09
spivSure :)06:09
ddaaI hope you do not get tired by my bouncing you around to other team members :-)06:10
spivNot at all :)06:10

Kinnisonsqlobject, the dbschema stuff etc.07:10
KinnisonIt's very interesting stuff.07:11
=== Kinnison is currently pondering the Transaction class while waiting for gina
KinnisonIt doesn't have an externally callable method to relinquish a connection to the db which breaks pooling connections07:11
KinnisonAt the moment I have a hack in to call txn._makeObsolete() -- personally I'd be happy to docstring the method and remove the underscore; but I need to talk to someone who knows the code better07:12

=== Kinnison pastes into a query to spiv
spivI see.07:23
spivOk, the real problem here isn't SQLObject, I think.07:23
spivOr, perhaps not.07:23
=== spiv thinks
spivWhere's the connection pool?07:24
spivOh, ugh. SQLObject's "Connection" object is actually a ConnectionPool when you use Transaction objects.  Ick.07:25
spivStupid naming.07:25

ddaafirst import running here07:55
ddaathat has cost me a lot in goats...07:55
sabdflddaa great!07:56
sabdflwhat was broken?07:56
ddaaDunno, something prevented the a52dec import here, related to cvs version detection. But it worked with aalib. Then it needed pyarch to automagically choose between classical and twisted process handling (that should have been done in buildbot07:57
ddaabut lifeless did not do it and requested that feature anyway)07:58
ddaaNow it seems to work...07:58
SteveAdaf: yes, it's great, thanks07:58
ddaaStill a lot of various mysterious breakage around...07:58
dafSteveA: any idea about the inconsistencies I was seeing?07:59
=== ddaa is out for dinner
elmoso what do we want client certed?  both the sites on rosetta and the launchpad instance on macquarie - anything else, immediately?08:11
SteveAwhat's rosetta's new name?08:12
elmomawson08:12
elmo.ubuntu.com08:12
SteveAI think only the devel server ought to require certificates, not the rosetta alpha server.  But, daf can confirm that08:13
dafit depends whether we care if people stumble upon the alpha or not08:13
SteveAdo you think all of the alpha users will be competent and willing to add a client certificate?08:14
SteveAI suppose it will stop it getting accidentally slashdotted08:15
SteveAelmo: what certificates do we have?08:15
SteveAis there one for canonical staff, and one for others ?08:15
elmoas many as we want, it's trivial to create them08:16
elmo(on a once off basis)08:16
elmoI'm certainly planning on having at least a 'launchpad' and a 'warthogs' one08:16
elmoif you want more granularity than that, go for it, just let me know what you want to do08:16
SteveAif daf wants one for the rosetta alpha, then we want a "launchpad testers" one too08:17

BradBWhat's a "format" of a source package release? (I'm wanting to describe srcpackageformat in a schema). I'm assuming it's things like "bzipped tarball" or "gzipped tarball".08:36
KinnisonBugger knows; that's not something I've worked out yet08:36
Kinnisongina only ever puts '1' in that column08:37
sabdflSteveA: resetting password...08:40

sabdflit might be that my mark@hbd.com account details are in an unusual state because they were created some time ago08:40
