|---|---|---|
| Kamion | __daniel: no | 12:00 |
| Kamion | mdz: hoary's seeds are starting out at warty, right? so copying warty->hoary in debootstrap is safe? | 12:01 |
| mdz | Kamion: yes | 12:01 |
| mdz | I don't think base has any changes proposed for hoary anyway, does it? | 12:01 |
| elmo | there's nothing on the wiki | 12:01 |
| Kamion | I'm sure some will happen :) | 12:01 |
| elmo | actually, yeah, I'm going to propose ethtool, for base, tho I may not succeed | 12:02 |
| Kamion | mdz: at minimum one is necessary: libc6.1/ia64 | 12:02 |
| elmo | kamion: efi, etc. too | 12:02 |
| Kamion | elmo: d-i can probably install those | 12:03 |
| elmo | ah, yeah | 12:03 |
| elmo | tho, the world will pull in libc6.1 too :) | 12:03 |
| elmo | christ, even expensive AMD64 servers can't keep time right - I thought it was just cheap shitty motherboards that were the problem | 12:04 |
| === Kamion throws debootstrap_0.2.45ubuntu1 hoary's way to see what happens | ||
| elmo | so, anyone, final call, on options, a), b) or c) above ? | 12:16 |
| Kamion | elmo: (any opinions from me withdrawn, I'd rather it worked) | 12:16 |
| Kamion | is somebody setting up a hoary-changes list? | 12:17 |
| === rjb [~arjaybe@207.102.22.2] has left #ubuntu-devel ["Kopete] | ||

| === jdub uploaded to hoary :-) | ||
| jdub | elmo: who was first? :) | 12:23 |
| jdub | Kamion: hrm | 12:24 |
| jdub | Kamion: should we have a general -changes list, or a new one for each release? | 12:24 |
| === azeem [~mbanck@socks-out.lrz-muenchen.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| elmo | won't we eventually be in parallel with two distros? | 12:25 |
| jdub | mdz: benh could really only raise PPC NPTL wrt glibc | 12:25 |
| jdub | elmo: more than two ;) | 12:25 |
| elmo | well, ubuntu distros then :P | 12:26 |
| elmo | I mean, like when hoary is frozen, but grumpy is syncing with sid | 12:26 |
| jdub | surely updates and embargoed security go to warty-changes too? | 12:26 |
| elmo | not to mention warty-updates uploads, so, yeah I think we should have per-distro lists | 12:26 |
| elmo | security uploads go to u-s-a | 12:27 |
| elmo | (err @lists.u.c) | 12:27 |
| jdub | mmm, true, people won't care about warty once we're on perky, but we will | 12:27 |
| === jdub goes to create hoary-changes | ||
| mdz | elmo: it's not just cheap servers; Sun machines are notorious for keeping shitty time | 12:28 |
| elmo | what's hoary's version number again? | 12:28 |
| jdub | 5.4 | 12:28 |
| mdz | or is it 5.04? | 12:28 |
| jdub | ugh | 12:29 |
| jdub | has to be 5.04 i guess | 12:29 |
| mdz | not as bad as "4.1" for 4.10 | 12:29 |
| jdub | hrm, doesn't *have* to be 5.04 | 12:29 |
| mdz | no, it doesn't | 12:30 |
| mdz | I just didn't remember what was decided | 12:30 |
| jdub | elmo: do syncs go to hoary-changes? | 12:31 |
| elmo | they, err, will | 12:31 |
| elmo | not the mass flood i just did tho | 12:31 |

| sabdfl | mjg59: speedily, happily, with a little song? | 01:16 |
| mjg59 | mdz: A bit - hot whisky and a large bowl of stew | 01:16 |
| sabdfl | hmm.. whiskey and lemon | 01:16 |
| sabdfl | mjg59: can you map out for me how you'd like to handle it? | 01:17 |
| sabdfl | i'm pretty much open to your lead on it | 01:17 |
| mjg59 | sabdfl: Suspend to disk is a matter of me getting the code to do swsusp off initrd together, building some test kernels and letting people go to town | 01:17 |
| sabdfl | ok | 01:17 |
| sabdfl | are there other things that we can do to really make it rock, that parallelise? | 01:18 |
| mjg59 | S3 is a bit trickier. The only test hardware I have is the C3 thing, and it's not playing ball yet | 01:18 |
| sabdfl | id like to build a volunteer team around you | 01:18 |

| mdz | mjg59: I got the impression from Herbert that swsusp was ready to go once we got v2 in | 01:28 |
| mdz | mjg59: and that is on his list for hoary already | 01:28 |
| mjg59 | v2 of swsusp? | 01:29 |
| mjg59 | Eww. | 01:29 |
| mjg59 | Really, it's bad crack. | 01:29 |
| mjg59 | Pretty, though. | 01:30 |
| mdz | mjg59: I was under the impression that we had no choice | 01:34 |
| mjg59 | For which? | 01:34 |
| mdz | mjg59: because earlier versions can't handle, e.g., IDE drivers being loaded as modules | 01:34 |
| mdz | swsusp | 01:35 |
| mdz | mjg59: mind creating a bugzilla account so I can CC you on this stuff? :-) | 01:35 |
| mjg59 | http://perso.wanadoo.fr/pascal.brisset/initrd-swsusp/ for instance | 01:35 |
| mdz | https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2003 | 01:35 |
| mjg59 | I'm pretty sure there's more recent versions of this code floating about | 01:35 |
| mdz | if there's a better way, Herbert needs to know about it now | 01:36 |
| mjg59 | SuSE certainly won't be shipping swsusp2, given that they've got Pavel | 01:36 |
| bob2 | does the swsusp merge in 2.6.9 mean it's supposed to work outside i386 now? | 01:37 |
| mjg59 | bob2: Not quite as yet | 01:37 |
| mjg59 | Benh had code for PPC. I'm not sure if it's done yet. | 01:37 |
| bob2 | most of the ppc effort seems to have been on pmdisk. | 01:38 |

| mako | hornbeck: i wanted to know if there was any summary of the documentation meeting? | 05:02 |
| asw | hornbeck: what do you think about http://www.phptr.com/title/0130327654 It's part of Bruce Perens' Open Source series. http://www.phptr.com/series/series.asp?ser=335494 | 05:05 |
| asw | hornbeck: It would be very cool to have an Ubuntu book in that series. What do other people think? (I'm replying to your message in ubuntu-doc) | 05:06 |
| hornbeck | mako: what doc meeting? | 05:09 |
| hornbeck | asw: that loooks pretty good | 05:10 |
| hornbeck | mako: nevermind, I remember now :-) | 05:10 |
| hornbeck | I think so let me check | 05:11 |
| hornbeck | mako: are you on the -devel list? | 05:11 |
| hornbeck | mako: enrico, did a write up of the meeting | 05:12 |
| hornbeck | I can forward to you if you like | 05:12 |
| mako | hornbeck: i must have missed it | 05:13 |
| mako | ooh.. it was probably sent late | 05:13 |
| mako | alright. it must have not made my 2004-10-15 traffic cutoff | 05:13 |
| hornbeck | yeah, the mail was on the 15th at 2:46pm | 05:13 |
| asw | hornbeck: I'd love to help (in whatever way I can) on any ubuntu book under a libre license. As usual my interest is "ubuntu for scientists" but scientists just want thing ordinary users want like openoffice/evolution/mozilla also gimp/latex/texmacs | 05:15 |
| hornbeck | asw: I am thinking more of a beginning type book | 05:15 |
| mako | i found it quite good to build up to a book length piece | 05:16 |
| asw | hornbeck: yeah that's what i figured but surely openoffice/evolution/mozilla are beginner apps? | 05:16 |
| hornbeck | asw: I have started a outline, and will be posting it to the mailing list when I have that done. It will hopefully be under a decent license, but this being my first attempt at a book, I think just getting to chapter one will be good for right now | 05:17 |
| hornbeck | asw: I was thinking, 1. Intro to Linux, 2. Installing Ubuntu, 3. The Gnome Desktop, 4. Useful apps, 5. package management, 6. the command line | 05:18 |
| hornbeck | something along that | 05:18 |
| hornbeck | command line before package management | 05:18 |
| asw | hornbeck: sure... I guess licenses are something that people can really fight about after the fact (don't start a company without a share-holder agreement) so it's nice to make sure about it in advance. Yeah I admin some boxes for my room-mates and I'd love to give them a copy. =^) Also my parents. | 05:19 |
| asw | ps. My thesis proposal went out today. This time next week this part will be all done. I'm a little terrified really. Everybody on that committee is about a billion times smarter than me. | 05:20 |
| hornbeck | asw: you will do fine | 05:20 |
| hornbeck | asw: I don't know how much to demand right from the get go, considering I have to go through a whole proposal first | 05:20 |
| asw | hornbeck: i was trolling so thanks for indulging me! | 05:20 |
| hornbeck | no prob | 05:21 |
| asw | hornbeck: if you plan to publish the book I think it's a good idea to have a "target" publisher and then some "alternates"... | 05:21 |
| hornbeck | asw: My first choice is Oreilly, than I would consider no starch and a few others | 05:22 |
| asw | hornbeck: and I would venture a guess that if you promise to use a libre license from beginning you'll get more help with proof-reading, and maybe some direct contributions of text. | 05:22 |
| hornbeck | but Oreilly is the one people look to for good books | 05:22 |
| hornbeck | asw: yeah, I would guess so | 05:23 |
| asw | hornbeck: looks to me that "no starch" is distributed by Oreilly so they might as well be the same company. (That's just from a glance at the web-pages...) | 05:29 |
| hornbeck | asw: no starch is distributed by oreilly but is not the same company | 05:33 |

| fabbione | hey mdz | 06:56 |
| fabbione | is there any more outcome from the meeting that i should be aware of? | 06:56 |
| fabbione | btw we could have called the new mailing list ubuntu-changes directly ;) | 06:57 |
| mdz | fabbione: not really, I am still processing the notes to update the wiki | 06:57 |
| fabbione | ok | 06:57 |
| mdz | fabbione: there was a short discussion about it in this channel between (I think) jdub and elmo | 06:57 |
| mdz | and they decided on hoary-changes | 06:57 |
| fabbione | ok | 06:58 |
| fabbione | we also need to be sure that python is fully installed before X.org | 06:58 |
| fabbione | we will have to change base-config for that | 06:58 |
| fabbione | and i will have to pre-depends on it | 06:59 |
| fabbione | does a python debconf interface exists? | 06:59 |
| mdz | fabbione: I do not think so | 07:00 |
| mdz | but it would be simple to write one | 07:00 |
| fabbione | if it doesn't exist it will kinda difficult for me to switch the scripts | 07:01 |
| fabbione | i don't have the knowledge to write an interface at that level | 07:01 |
| mdz | it may be simpler than you think; look at /usr/share/debconf/confmodule sometime | 07:02 |
| mdz | but someone else could do it also | 07:02 |
| mdz | do you need it today? | 07:02 |
| asw | mdz: I'm sasha (I don't remember if I introduced myself previously.) Curious, are you the M. Zimmerman of EFF (staff attorney?) That just seems odd... | 07:02 |
| mdz | asw: no | 07:02 |
| fabbione | mdz: no but asap | 07:02 |
| fabbione | python2.3-configlet - alternative debconf configuration interface: core API | 07:03 |
| fabbione | i don't think it's the same | 07:03 |
| mdz | fabbione: ah, there is one | 07:03 |
| mdz | it's included in the debconf package even | 07:04 |

| skvidal | a short while back I read in I think an ubuntu or debian developer's blog about potential python-dpkg bindings | 07:07 |
| skvidal | I was wondering if 1. anyone else could remember where I might have read that and 2. if there is any movement in that direction | 07:07 |
| mdz | skvidal: it's not on the schedule for the next 6 months, but that doesn't mean it won't happen | 07:20 |
| mdz | I think wichert akkerman is working on something like that | 07:20 |
| skvidal | mdz: hmm, okay, I'm just kinda curious in the prospect of that | 07:21 |
| mdz | or was | 07:21 |
| mdz | skvidal: I think it depends on having libdpkg, which doesn't itself exist yet | 07:21 |

| srbaker_ | aj, i thought canonical was full | 07:23 |

| srbaker_ | and besides, if you want debian developers, there are probably 600 that are smarter than me that you haven't hired yet. | 07:23 |
| srbaker_ | or they, i don't remember if you're at canonical or not | 07:24 |

| mako | well, full compared to last one :) | 07:45 |
| mako | which was empty :) | 07:45 |
| mdz | fabbione: you don't need to attend the CC meeting if you don't want to | 07:45 |
| mako | mdz: i didn't get to the kick off summary today.. i did 3 of them and thought it was about enough for the day :) | 07:46 |
| fabbione | mdz: the problem is the time | 07:46 |
| fabbione | 16:00 UTC is really bad for me | 07:46 |
| fabbione | and now it seems to be a standard | 07:46 |
| mdz | that's because when I asked everyone for times, that was the middle ground | 07:46 |
| fabbione | yeah and that's ok when there is a meeting once in a while | 07:47 |
| mdz | if you would like to ask everyone again, and find a time which works better for you, we could discuss changing it | 07:47 |
| fabbione | now we are up to 2 meetings per week every 2 weeks | 07:47 |
| mako | fabbione: well, you can pretty safely ignore the CC meetings unless you're bringing up an issue there | 07:47 |
| fabbione | Mentoring new developers | 07:48 |
| === mako shrugs | ||
| fabbione | that something important :) | 07:48 |
| mako | yeah | 07:48 |
| fabbione | i didn't put it there | 07:48 |
| fabbione | but i am kinda a mentor for debian too | 07:48 |
| mako | i suppose there is a pretty high chance you'll have something you're interested on any given agenda | 07:48 |
| fabbione | mako: right | 07:48 |
| mdz | mako: the hoary kickoff summary will be to the CC summary as this month's traffic is to July's traffic | 07:48 |
| mako | mdz: i cut out like 600 lines and moved into a linked summary | 07:49 |
| mako | the art summary was larger than the first 3 traffics combined, at least :) | 07:49 |
| mako | WTs, not UTs | 07:50 |
| mako | well, actually, maybe UTs too | 07:50 |
| mako | fabbione: well, these conversations can happen before and after the meetings | 07:50 |
| mako | fabbione: i guess we don't really have a procedure for participating in a meeting before a meeting short of making notes or adding thigns to the wiki | 07:51 |
| mako | but i think that's a nice thought since clearly we've got people in places for which that time is convinient | 07:51 |
| mako | and peoples in places where it's fine but their schedules don't fit :) | 07:51 |
| fabbione | mako: yes i know that | 07:52 |

| asw | mako: yeah I just submitted my PHD thesis proposal today (i'm nervous as hell) but by next week I should have a year to work on free software projects as time permits. | 08:04 |
| mako | asw: what dept? | 08:04 |
| mako | asw: school? | 08:04 |
| asw | biophysics (harvard) but its a cs-physics-biology project. See http://groups-beta.google.com/group/coreworld-announce | 08:05 |
| mako | asw: ah, you're in cambridge, cool! we should have coffee at cafe algiers next time i come up :) | 08:06 |
| mako | organize a boston ubuntu meeting :) | 08:06 |
| asw | next announcement after the committee meeting next week. I've read a few of your pages. Actually Gerry Sussman wanted me to talk to SPI folks about an idea I have. I very very briefly talked about it with Mark (sbdfl) already. | 08:06 |
| asw | yes. I'd love that. (re algiers) | 08:07 |
| asw | actually are you in washington? | 08:07 |
| mako | asw: i'm in new york now but lived in boston a few years ago | 08:07 |
| mako | lived in seattle and italy and western mass (amherst) in between | 08:07 |
| asw | oh. in that case maybe sooner... I'll be in new york fairly soon. | 08:07 |
| mako | asw: http://mako.yukidoke.org/contact.html | 08:08 |
| mako | asw: let me know when you're coming down.. give me some advance warning and i can get you a place to crash probably :) | 08:08 |
| asw | Googling people doesn't work. (I swear I saw what looked like a current page that said you live near Seattle.) | 08:09 |
| mako | asw: i moved like 3 weeks ago :) | 08:09 |
| mako | asw: didn't have to be that out of date | 08:09 |
| mako | asw: but yeah, we can talk spi stuff too. i'm here and our lawyer is too | 08:10 |
| mako | (who is a debian maintainer now as of last week) | 08:10 |
| asw | mako: careful I might take you up on that. (re crash space.) The last time I stayed in NYC I found a dorm style room with a bunch of underwear models at the Gershwin hotel. I think I debated Creationism versus darwinian evolution with a girl who ended up bunking with the fifteen year old. Ah well. =^) | 08:10 |
| vorlon | hum? Greg is a maintainer now? | 08:11 |
| mako | vorlon: yeah, took over xkbsel | 08:11 |
| mako | vorlon: and is getting ready to an upload of an new package of galax (xml query language) | 08:12 |
| vorlon | nice. | 08:12 |
| mako | greg is a real hacker.. reads his email in nmh and write his printed documents in troff | 08:13 |

| mako | asw: not yet i don't believe | 08:15 |
| mako | asw: yeah, let me know. we have lots of guests :) | 08:16 |
| jdub | oh man | 08:16 |
| jdub | meeting tonight too | 08:16 |
| jdub | eeeeeuuuggh ;) | 08:16 |
| mako | jdub: tuns of meetings | 08:16 |
| asw | mako: thanks. I'll definitely take you up on it... Re docs. I'm going to suggest we look at http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/debian/chapter/book/index.html that's what I'd like to see for Ubuntu. (Maybe a different license but personally, I'd really like to keep the GNU in the title.) | 08:18 |
| mako | asw: me too :) | 08:18 |
| asw | really? (is that re. keeping "GNU" in the title?) | 08:19 |
| mako | yep :) | 08:19 |
| mako | all of it actually | 08:20 |
| plovs_work | any of the zwiki people awake? | 08:23 |
| srbaker_ | okay, one thing i don't understand about arch is why do they like to have such weird names for directories? it's really imposing | 08:27 |
| jdub | http://netatalk.sourceforge.net/2.0/ReleaseNotes.html | 08:30 |
| jdub | ^ sweet | 08:30 |
| asw | srbaker_ : it's taken me a really long time to get used to the idea of "small clean changesets" and I'm still not sure I'm used to it. the other parts of arch are ultimately less of an issue imho than wrapping your head around the idea of a growing "frontier" of releases at each arch archive rather than a central repository. | 08:36 |
| srbaker | asw, bah, all of that stuff i can get used to. the long path names drive me fucking batty | 08:38 |
| srbaker | esp. when it makes my prompt three lines long | 08:38 |
| aj | srbaker: yay darcs! :) | 08:38 |
| srbaker | aj, heh, i really like darcs. | 08:38 |
| srbaker | but i've been using monotone | 08:38 |

| robtaylor | pitti: oh cool :) | 12:09 |
| robtaylor | pitti: ah. well 1st off its a fdifferent kernel, isnt it? | 12:10 |
| === robtaylor notes that /proc/version tell me it was built by alextreme | ||
| pitti | robtaylor: yes, IIRC the live CD uses 2.6.7, install uses 2.6.8.1 | 12:10 |
| pitti | robtaylor: does the hotplug stuff work for you? | 12:10 |
| robtaylor | pitti: ok, and are there many ubuntu-specific patches? | 12:11 |
| pitti | robtaylor: a shipload | 12:11 |
| robtaylor | pitti: usb keys are recognised, but onlu work if partioned | 12:11 |
| robtaylor | pitti: pcmcia drives dont get picked up | 12:11 |
| pitti | robtaylor: hmm, at least something :-) | 12:11 |
| pitti | robtaylor: does it work in an installed version? | 12:11 |
| robtaylor | pitti: and even strangely, my ext3-formatted pccard drive was mounted vfat! | 12:12 |
| robtaylor | pitti: unfortuanltly i dont have a machine i can install ubuntu on to test that :/ | 12:12 |
| pitti | robtaylor: really? that should not work, the kernel should reject that... | 12:12 |
| pitti | robtaylor: sure that it is ext3? | 12:12 |
| pitti | robtaylor: the kernel cannot mount an ext3 drive as vfat | 12:12 |
| robtaylor | pitti: yep, mount -t ext3 workd | 12:12 |
| pitti | robtaylor: and mount -t vfat works as well? | 12:13 |
| robtaylor | but unforced mount mounts it as vfat.. very very broken | 12:13 |
| robtaylor | havn't tried mount -t vfat | 12:13 |
| pitti | robtaylor: can you please summarize that in a bug report? and give all infos you have about this? | 12:13 |
| robtaylor | pitti: sure, where's the bug database? | 12:14 |
| pitti | robtaylor: I currently have 5 security bugs to deal with, not really time for hotplug stuff now... | 12:14 |
| robtaylor | pitti: i can work on this myself, btw | 12:14 |
| pitti | robtaylor: bugzilla.ubuntulinux.org | 12:14 |
| pitti | robtaylor: thanks! | 12:14 |
| robtaylor | pitti: i guess i'll start witch makeing sure the kernels are as similar as possible.. | 12:14 |
| pitti | robtaylor: neither of these errors should depend on the particular kernel versin | 12:15 |
| pitti | robtaylor: version, even | 12:15 |
| robtaylor | well the vfat thing is definitly kernel-bound | 12:15 |
| pitti | robtaylor: it is | 12:15 |
| pitti | robtaylor: of course it is possible that this bug was fixed in 2.6.8 | 12:15 |
| pitti | robtaylor: I've never tried that :-) | 12:15 |
| robtaylor | but yeah the other two are user space | 12:16 |
| robtaylor | what do you use to manage user-space mounting? | 12:16 |
| pitti | robtaylor: pmount | 12:17 |
| pitti | robtaylor: pmount allows normal users to mount drives which are not in fstab | 12:17 |
| robtaylor | right | 12:17 |
| robtaylor | and what manages the appearance of drives in the 'Disks' window? | 12:17 |
| pitti | robtaylor: hal is the database which knows about hotpluggable devices | 12:17 |
| pitti | robtaylor: and gnome-volume-manager connects these two: receives hotplug events from hal, calls pmount to mount | 12:17 |
| robtaylor | right, sounds sane | 12:18 |
| pitti | robtaylor: nautilus is responsible for actually showing the drive icons and windows | 12:18 |
| pitti | robtaylor: the advantage is that only the relatively small pmount program needs to run as root | 12:18 |
| pitti | rabidbt: and only for a short time (as opposed to the g-v-m and hal daemons) | 12:18 |
| robtaylor | hanfg on, but on my test, sda1 was only attempetd to be mounted when i clicked on it in the Disks window... | 12:19 |
| robtaylor | so gvm is doing something to make it appear for nautilus, but isnt actually mounting it | 12:21 |
| pitti | robtaylor: it really was not mounted? | 12:27 |
| pitti | robtaylor: if it appears in the discs window, it should be mounted | 12:27 |
| robtaylor | pitti: hmm | 12:27 |
| pitti | robtaylor: may it be possible that just no nautilus window popped up? | 12:27 |
| robtaylor | pitti: sda1 appears in the Disks window when i insert an unpartioned usb key | 12:27 |
| pitti | robtaylor: this can be configured in Computer -> Desktop settings -> removable devices | 12:27 |

| robtaylor | pitti: hmm, curious, this key doesnt appear in the device manager | 12:50 |
| pitti | robtaylor: hmm, but still it appears in "Disks"? | 12:50 |
| robtaylor | carlos: i was thinking i might pop down to the the canonical meeting in december.. | 12:50 |
| pitti | robtaylor: this is really odd | 12:50 |
| carlos | robtaylor: that could be really good | 12:50 |
| robtaylor | pitti: yep, sda1 is in Disks, hal claims that the only usb devices it knows about are hubs | 12:51 |
| robtaylor | pitti: and the key is definitly plugged in, and manually mountable | 12:52 |
| pitti | robtaylor: I never really dealt with the live CD (just tried whether it boots), but something seems to be _severely_ broken on it | 12:52 |
| pitti | robtaylor: you mean the stick is contained in /etc/fstab? | 12:52 |
| robtaylor | carlos:yep :) i'll try and save up a spair couple of days holiday :) | 12:52 |
| robtaylor | pitti: no, yes, maybe=).. fstab has /dev/sda1. | 12:53 |
| pitti | robtaylor: THAT is the error | 12:53 |
| pitti | robtaylor: it shouldn't be there for our tools to work | 12:53 |
| robtaylor | pitti: ahhhhh | 12:53 |
| pitti | robtaylor: of course, if /dev/sda1 is in fstab, you can "mount" it | 12:54 |
| robtaylor | its morphix's auto fstab stuff clashing with your pmount stuff | 12:54 |
| pitti | rabidbt: I suppose | 12:54 |
| pitti | robtaylor: I suppose | 12:54 |
| pitti | rabidbt: sorry, wrong address, should be robtaylor | 12:54 |
| robtaylor | pitti: nono. when i say i can mount the usbkey i mean uif i sudo mount /dev/sda /mnt/bla it workd | 12:54 |
| pitti | robtaylor: in an installed Ubuntu system, "mount /dev/sda1" will fail since it is not in fstab | 12:54 |
| robtaylor | mount /dev/sda1 faile here anyway as that device doesnt exist | 12:55 |
| pitti | robtaylor: does it work with "pmount /dev/sda" (without sudo)? | 12:55 |

| sivang | Morning all! | 12:55 |
| robtaylor | pitti: what should be in fstab? | 12:55 |
| pitti | robtaylor: so /dev/sda is not in fstab? | 12:55 |
| pitti | robtaylor: actually no usb devices should be in fstab | 12:55 |
| === sivang hugs pitti | ||
| robtaylor | pitti: no, /dev/sda1 is | 12:55 |
| pitti | Hi sivang | 12:55 |
| pitti | robtaylor: okay, but this should not interfere with automounting of /dev/sda | 12:56 |
| pitti | robtaylor: it could just be that the partition table of the stick is somehow brokeb | 12:56 |
| pitti | robtaylor: broken | 12:56 |
| robtaylor | pitti: there's quite a lot in fstab, generated by morphix | 12:57 |
| robtaylor | pitti: i tod you, its unpartiond.. partioned keys work fine | 12:57 |
| pitti | robtaylor: hmm, so if "pmount /dev/sda" works, then it's a hal fault | 12:57 |
| robtaylor | pitti: pmount /dev/sda is fine | 12:57 |
| robtaylor | so its hal | 12:57 |
| robtaylor | can i get any messages out of hal easily? | 12:57 |

| seb128_ | hi Mitario_ | 01:00 |
| robtaylor | pitti: hmm, absolutly nothing | 01:01 |
| robtaylor | i thin kthis is a kernel->hotplug issue | 01:01 |
| pitti | robtaylor: but at least you see some messages at hal startup? | 01:01 |
| robtaylor | pitti: yeah, lots at hal startup as it finds everything else | 01:01 |
| robtaylor | pitti: just abosolutly nothing when i insert this key :/ | 01:02 |
| pitti | robtaylor: then I think it is a kernel bug | 01:02 |
| pitti | robtaylor: what does 'dmesg | tail' say after plugin? | 01:02 |
| robtaylor | pitti: ok, this is somewhat odd.. 1) two drives (sda ans sdb) are attached | 01:03 |
| robtaylor | pitti: hmm ah, only the 1st time.. hmm | 01:05 |
| robtaylor | pitti: anyway ldm_validate_privheads(): Cannot find PRIVHEAD 1. unable to read partition table | 01:06 |
| robtaylor | which i'd expect =) | 01:07 |
| pitti | robtaylor: can you stick all this into the bug report? | 01:07 |
| robtaylor | pitti: yeah, sure | 01:07 |
| pitti | robtaylor: thanks! | 01:07 |
| robtaylor | pitti: it seems kernel bound too.. i'm going to spend a bit of time building a morphix kernel with from the stock ububtuy kenerl | 01:09 |
| robtaylor | pitti: should i assign the bug to you? | 01:33 |
| pitti | robtaylor: sounds like a kernel bug, please assign it to a linux package | 01:34 |

| === Kamion dives deep into the choose-mirror merge for hoary | ||
| === Kamion whacks fabbione for editing generated files but not editing the source :) | ||
| fabbione | uh? | 01:39 |
| fabbione | which generated file? | 01:39 |
| === enrico [~enrico@enrico.developer.debian] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Kamion | fabbione: debian/choose-mirror.templates | 01:40 |
| Kamion | (generated from debian/templates-in) | 01:40 |
| Kamion | I've nearly finished the merge now, looking good so far | 01:41 |
| === fabbione evily removes the macintosh gb fix from x.org | ||
| fabbione | strange... | 01:41 |
| fabbione | but than.. it's not generated at build time | 01:41 |
| fabbione | otherwise i would have noticed | 01:41 |
| Kamion | it's generated by make, so will depend on timestamps etc. | 01:41 |
| Kamion | it's possible you disabled the generation as part of the Mirrors.masterlist stuff too, I guess | 01:42 |
| Kamion | I only noticed because the set of patch hunks that didn't apply were inconsistent | 01:42 |
| fabbione | i see | 01:43 |
| fabbione | i didn't notice... but anyway it shouldn't be a difficult merge | 01:43 |
| fabbione | i don't remember changing that much into choose-mirror | 01:43 |
| fabbione | and i also think joeyh did merge some of the proxy detection thingy | 01:44 |
| fabbione | at least i gave him the code and the patches | 01:44 |
| Kamion | yeah, he did | 01:44 |
| fabbione | nice :-) | 01:44 |
| Kamion | uh, no, he just merged some of the fixes actually | 01:44 |
| Kamion | not the tcp_syn_retries stuff | 01:45 |
| fabbione | there was only one real fix about a call to free a string iirc | 01:45 |
| Kamion | the merge is mostly just painful because of .po files; I'm beginning to learn how to semi-automate that | 01:45 |
| fabbione | Kamion: the tcp_syn_retries thing is still questionable. | 01:45 |
| fabbione | i consider it a hack | 01:45 |
| fabbione | but without it, the tcp stack takes ages to go in timeout | 01:46 |
| Kamion | *nod* | 01:46 |
| fabbione | if there is connectivity to archive, but it is let say unstable | 01:46 |
| fabbione | than the syn won't help at all | 01:46 |
| Kamion | bleh, I do effectively have to re-brand .po files though | 01:48 |
| Kamion | I can automate the msgid changes but not the msgstrs | 01:48 |
| lamont | moo | 01:51 |
| robtaylor | lamont: moo | 01:51 |
| robtaylor | lamont: umm, i'm seeing some oddness with the kernel that gets used on the livecd.. | 01:52 |
| robtaylor | lamont: and that umount proc problem just went away the second time i built. i managed to analyse the 1st one though, as the cause was /usr/sbin/acpid-c/etc/acpi/events-s/var/run/acpid.socket staying running and holding open a file on proc | 01:53 |
| robtaylor | la | 01:54 |
| robtaylor | lamont: quite whty it didnt die the 1st time, but worked the 2nd time is beyone me tho =) | 01:54 |
| lamont | interesting | 01:54 |
| robtaylor | lamont: where does the kernel used for livecd boot come from? | 01:56 |
| lamont | morphix | 01:57 |
| lamont | well, morphix derived | 01:57 |
| lamont | delivered by the morphix dude | 01:58 |
| robtaylor | lamont: should it have all the ubuntu patches installed? | 01:59 |
| === azeem_ is now known as azeem | ||
| lamont | robtaylor: that was a design decision that will be fixed in hoary | 02:02 |
| lamont | which is to say, 'no' | 02:02 |
| lamont | is spain 120 or 240V power? | 02:02 |
| Keybuk | 120 | 02:03 |
| pitti | Keybuk: sure? | 02:03 |
| pitti | Keybuk: it's Europe, we should have sane voltages | 02:03 |
| Keybuk | actually | 02:03 |
| Keybuk | no | 02:03 |
| Keybuk | sorry | 02:03 |
| Keybuk | 230V 50Hz | 02:03 |
| pitti | right | 02:03 |
| Keybuk | stuck that on the Wiki | 02:04 |
| fabbione | try to find a picture of the plugs | 02:04 |
| Keybuk | fabbione: already done | 02:04 |
| lamont | twin straight round prongs, I expect... | 02:05 |
| Keybuk | http://kropla.com/!c.htm | 02:05 |
| lamont | anyone need a netgear wall-wart? | 02:05 |
| Keybuk | same as Denmark/Italy | 02:05 |
| thom | which of the 375 thousand wikis have you added it to? | 02:05 |
| Keybuk | thom: canonical | 02:05 |
| daniels | 230V! | 02:06 |
| daniels | spain is love. | 02:06 |
| lamont | then again, maybe I'll keep my european-wall-wart for the netgear, and just bring that with me. | 02:06 |
| robtaylor | lamont: what was the reason for that design decision? (i ask as I'm planning on making a kenel with the morphix patches and the ubuntu patches..) | 02:06 |
| Keybuk | I still like the World Electric Guide's snide comment about UK power | 02:06 |
| Keybuk | "Although /officially/ 230V ..." | 02:06 |
| daniels | Keybuk: yeah, we're officially 230, but it's often stated as 240 | 02:07 |
| elmo | aren't we 240 ? | 02:07 |
| daniels | either is within tolerance | 02:07 |
| Keybuk | elmo: mostly 240V | 02:07 |
| Keybuk | but the officialdom says 230 to "be inline with Europe" | 02:07 |
| robtaylor | ahh | 02:07 |
| jdub | rburton: ping | 02:07 |
| Keybuk | 240V is in allowed tolerances, so the fact that UK power isn't really 230 isn't *that* important | 02:07 |
| lamont | robtaylor: livecd uses a funky overlay technique to do some things - patches available for 2.6.7, but not 2.6.8*, being worked on for 2.6.9 | 02:07 |
| Keybuk | though 250V (which it can spike to) isn't <g> but we don't talk about that | 02:07 |
| robtaylor | lamont: ahh, umm, stiinky | 02:08 |
| lamont | so liveCD is 2.6.7+morphix patches, install CD is 2.6.8.1 + ubuntu patches. Hoary will be 2.6.x + morphix/ubuntu patches | 02:08 |

| === robtaylor shudders | ||
| lamont | jdub: dunno yet, but we need something more designed and less crackful | 02:10 |
| robtaylor | jdub: the basic idea isnt too crackful, i dont think | 02:10 |
| jdub | lamont: i have the sneaking suspicion that cachefs will help here | 02:11 |
| jdub | rburton: (you're not listed as online - did you get those messages?) | 02:12 |
| rburton | hm, nope | 02:12 |
| lamont | jdub: cool - we'll have to look at that for the merge | 02:12 |
| robtaylor | jdub: is that the same as the solaris cachefs? | 02:12 |
| rburton | jdub: aha: server connect failed when i try to chat to you | 02:12 |
| jdub | robtaylor: dunno | 02:12 |
| robtaylor | jdub: (reading lkml) yep seems like it could do the same job | 02:14 |
| robtaylor | generic union mounts are the true solution though | 02:15 |

| pitti | jdub: thx | 02:48 |
| pitti | jdub: is the version number okay? | 02:48 |
| pitti | jdub: it's a bit odd, by now we only have an non-approved standard to version security uploads | 02:48 |
| pitti | jdub: 0.14.1-2ubuntu0.1 | 02:49 |
| azeem | the url to the patches on http://www.ubuntulinux.org/support/patches is broken | 02:49 |
| jdub | pitti: hrm, seems fine to me, but mdz may have other opinions | 02:49 |
| azeem | on a related matter, 'When Ubuntu developers fix bugs that are also present in external packages - from other distributions or from upstream - we make that patch available on our web site' does not apply to enhancements, only bugs, right? | 02:50 |
| jdub | pitti: more of a q for mdz :) | 02:50 |
| pitti | jdub: okay; he must approve the uploads anyway, once they are uploaded to the queue | 02:50 |
| jdub | azeem: should generally be both, but it's been pretty hectic during the release | 02:50 |
| jdub | azeem: a lot of those will fall out during our big merge | 02:50 |
| jdub | azeem: also, some features are just not upstreamable | 02:50 |
| azeem | sure, okie | 02:51 |
| pitti | elmo: are uploads to warty-security automatically synced to hoary if hoary's version is lower? If so, I could close the relevant bugs, otherwise I must leave them open | 02:53 |
| elmo | pitti: no, they're not | 02:57 |

| Keybuk | sure | 03:15 |

| Kamion | debian/po/ is roughly: merge everything else; debconf-updatepo; copy warty, debian, hoary (so far) to separate directories; for each .po file in hoary do msgmerge -C warty/$x.po debian/$x.po hoary/$x.po > new/$x.po; fiddle about lots with corner cases | 03:19 |
| Keybuk | ouch | 03:19 |
| Kamion | it's better than rebranding from scratch :) | 03:19 |
| Keybuk | oh yes | 03:20 |
| Keybuk | what's the debconf-updatedo bit do? | 03:20 |
| Kamion | updates debian/po/templates.pot with new source references and then updates debian/po/*.po with new source references, fuzzy markers, etc. | 03:21 |
| Kamion | it confuses msgmerge much less if you do this first | 03:22 |
| === daniels stares at #2759. | ||
| Kamion | debconf-updatepo is a command to run frequently on anything with debian/po/ | 03:22 |
| Keybuk | right | 03:22 |
| robtaylor | anyone.. whats the name of the kernel image in ubuntu? act-cache show kernel-source-2.6.8 just gives me debian sources... ~(i have warty main pinned at 1 ;)) | 03:24 |
| seb128 | uploads to hoary are open ? | 03:24 |
| robtaylor | s/image/source | 03:24 |
| tseng | linux-source | 03:24 |
| Kamion | robtaylor: linux-source-2.6.8.1 | 03:25 |
| robtaylor | Kamion: thanks :) | 03:25 |
| Kamion | Keybuk: of course, for packages where we haven't changed debian/po/ it's not worth bothering ... | 03:26 |
| robtaylor | lamont: when you get back.. on sunday Oliver released mini_fo patches for kernel>=2.6.8.1 | 03:27 |
| Keybuk | Kamion: I guess for ordinary po/ that msgmerge might work too? | 03:33 |
| Keybuk | any particular reason you use warty as the compendium? | 03:33 |
| Keybuk | and not latest-debian ? | 03:34 |
| Kamion | Keybuk: should do | 03:35 |
| Kamion | Keybuk: well, the primary source of new translations is latest-debian; warty is a backup | 03:35 |
| Kamion | the goal is really to get us into sync with the latest translations in d-i, which are going to be superior to whatever we have | 03:36 |
| Keybuk | right | 03:37 |
| Kamion | I think I've understood def.po and the compendium the right way round | 03:37 |
| Kamion | Keybuk: are you going to be doing a mass upload of merges, or what? | 03:37 |
| Keybuk | Kamion: I think the basic idea is to do the merges as automatic as possible | 03:38 |
| Keybuk | for any that it works, I'll upload | 03:38 |
| Keybuk | any left will have a source package and a "lost hunks" patch file alongside | 03:38 |
| Kamion | ok | 03:38 |
| Keybuk | where the source package will be merged as automatic as possible, with anything conflicting to be resolved | 03:38 |

| lucas_ | hi | 04:12 |
| lucas_ | Kamion: when you generate CDs using debian-cd, are you using build.sh or build_all.sh ? | 04:13 |
| lamont | robtaylor: cool | 04:21 |
| robtaylor | lamont: i'm looking at building a 2.6.8.1 morphix kernel... though its not obvious what should go in or not.. | 04:22 |
| robtaylor | anyway, so it'll be based off the warty realease kernel, which hopefully will make some things less broken | 04:23 |
| lamont | yeah - no clues here either, but there is a source drop on www.morphix.org/debian | 04:23 |
| robtaylor | (though not the device node/pipe/ problems) | 04:24 |
| robtaylor | lamont: good point, that'd be a good place top start | 04:24 |

| sid77 | hi | 05:19 |
| === lamont pitys anyone foolish enough to have changed sources.list to point to hoary this early | ||
| rburton | what broke so quickly? | 05:38 |
| lamont | rburton: we sync'ed all the unmodified packages from sid, and they're building now. | 05:40 |
| rburton | oh fun | 05:40 |
| lamont | which basically means that large parts of things will quite likely be uninstallable, etc. | 05:41 |
| lamont | because none of the need-to-be-merged packages are included in that... | 05:41 |
| lamont | rburton: the key thing to remember is that hoary will be _REALLY_ unstable/broken for a while. | 05:43 |
| === Kamion flies blind trying to merge main-menu | ||
| Kamion | pretty much no possible way to test these changes until they've all been made | 05:44 |
| elmo | Kamion: sorry, just to confirm, I can trash everything but latest installer-$arch and daily-installer-* ? | 05:44 |
| elmo | [I asked that earlier, right before a netsplit, if you already answered, I missed it, sorry] | 05:44 |
| Kamion | elmo: didn't see it, but yes, and you can trash daily-installer-* in warty if that's still possible | 05:45 |
| Kamion | (or advisable) | 05:45 |
| elmo | k, th | 05:48 |
| elmo | x | 05:48 |
| thom | ...bye | 05:49 |
| Kamion | thom: I was resisting manfully | 05:51 |
| thom | i couldn't help myself | 05:51 |
| thom | arrgh. i really struggle to type "myself". if i'm not concentrating my fingers go for "mysql" | 05:51 |
| thom | damn sys admin jobs anyway | 05:52 |
| sid77 | lol | 05:53 |
| Kamion | Keybuk: more fun; if the encoding of a .po file has changed then you have to iconv the one from warty before running msgmerge | 05:55 |
| Keybuk | Kamion: I think we should make daf write some python to deal with this for us :o) | 05:55 |
| Keybuk | "here's three po files, make me a fourth" | 05:55 |
| daf | if the PO files declare their encodings properly, it probably would be fairly easy to automate | 05:56 |
| Kamion | they pretty much always do in d-i at least; too much stuff breaks obviously if the encoding is wrong | 05:57 |
| robtaylor | Kamion: just looking over hoary goals... whats 'kickstart' ? | 05:57 |
| sivang | robtaylor : a system that manages mass installs | 05:58 |
| sivang | robtaylor : or allows for | 05:58 |
| thom | the redhat automated install system | 05:58 |
| robtaylor | ah. | 05:58 |

| === sid77 bye | ||
| Kamion | Keybuk: P.S. it'd be nice to have it flagged somehow when the msgstr upon which a branded msgstr is based changes ... | 06:12 |
| Kamion | Keybuk: unfortunately I don't think there's enough metadata in the .po file for that :-( | 06:12 |

| mdz | pitti: nathaniel will not be on the team for Hoary | 06:54 |
| fabbione | mdz: it seems amazing.. compiling the X.org monolitch tree i am getting hundreds of extra warnings i wasn't getting before | 06:55 |
| mdz | fabbione: what kind of warnings? | 06:56 |
| fabbione | duplicate declarations mostly and function without prototypes | 06:56 |
| lamont | are some of the auto-merges getting uploaded? | 06:56 |

| fabbione | stuff like this one | 06:57 |
| fabbione | i did compile libxext and never got this stuff | 06:57 |
| mdz | fabbione: this is the same code organized differently, or different code? | 06:57 |
| fabbione | same code | 06:58 |

| fabbione | lamont: thanks :-) | 07:00 |
| elmo | I've even tried nicing the stupid thing up | 07:00 |
| fabbione | elmo: ask Jochen (the maintainer) | 07:00 |
| fabbione | he is really cool at debugging stuff | 07:00 |
| fabbione | i can guarantee for him :-) | 07:00 |

| Keybuk | evolution <base: 1.4.6-3> <warty: 2.0.2-0ubuntu2> <debian: 2.0.2-3> | 07:02 |
| lamont | Keybuk: I wonder if that's because we sync'ed, and immediately uploaded ubuntu1... | 07:06 |
| lamont | actually -0ubuntu* means probably not | 07:06 |
| lamont | Keybuk: I think we uploaded evo 2.0 before debian did... | 07:07 |
| mdz | pitti: the masters of the universe discussion is happening; you seem to have some ideas, so it would be great to have your input | 07:07 |
| mdz | elmo: flakes out how? | 07:07 |
| pitti | mdz: I'm already reading | 07:08 |

| bluefoxicy | I was told to discus stuff here, just waiting for the CC meeting to end so that people aren't busy (plus I need to organize my thoughts) | 07:32 |

| tseng | i think what you want to do should happen in a seperate branch or something | 07:37 |
| tseng | and get merged back in the next cycle | 07:37 |
| fabbione | humpf.. | 07:41 |
| fabbione | we need a newer version of xrender | 07:41 |
| bluefoxicy | tseng: yes | 07:43 |
| bluefoxicy | tseng: I don't expect people to just start hacking on the stable system; getting it working in the lab (a separate branch to be merged is a lab) first is a no brainer. | 07:44 |
| bluefoxicy | tseng: but I do want these things in mainline. | 07:45 |
| === bluefoxicy wants to avoid a fork though; we don't need yet another distro floating around, esp. not the 10,000,000th Debian based fork. | ||
| tseng | did you even install ubuntu yet? | 07:46 |
| bluefoxicy | yeah | 07:46 |
| bluefoxicy | on a 1.4 gig partition | 07:46 |
| thom | uh, one of ubuntu's aims is to encourage derivatives | 07:46 |
| bluefoxicy | it looks like someone kicked my hard drive :) | 07:46 |
| bluefoxicy | thom: The effect I'm aiming at is nuclear; I'm trying to incite revolutionary change across all distributions and even potentially across the entire computer industry. | 07:47 |
| bluefoxicy | everything starts somewher. | 07:47 |
| elmo | crap, we need to do the gnutls11 migration for hoary | 07:52 |
| bluefoxicy | tseng: i need a filesystem that can compress individual files transparantly | 07:53 |
| bluefoxicy | I have 1.4G but ubuntu-desktop wants 1.8 | 07:53 |
| mdz | bluefoxicy: you don't need a compressed filesystem, but rather a larger partition :-) | 07:53 |
| elmo | http://people.ubuntu.com/~james/packages_to_merge.txt | 07:53 |
| elmo | btw | 07:53 |
| thom | are we going to ignore the gcc3.4/4.0 transition too? :-) | 07:53 |
| elmo | thom: there hasn't been one in sid? | 07:53 |
| bob2 | bluefoxicy: boot with the archive-copier disabled and you can install with 1.4GB | 07:53 |
| bluefoxicy | bob2: what's final space usage | 07:54 |
| mdz | elmo: that's the list of stuff that Keybuk said would be done by this afternoon, right? | 07:54 |
| mdz | ;-) | 07:54 |
| thom | sorry, that's what i mean. how are we going to deal with gcc3.4? | 07:54 |
| doogie | does ubuntu do their own security, or do they reuse debian security releases? | 07:54 |
| bluefoxicy | bob2: and would it be possible to download/install/wipe cycle one at a time? | 07:54 |
| thom | leave it in 3.3 abi mode? | 07:54 |
| bob2 | bluefoxicy: ~1.4GB or so for the final install | 07:54 |
| thom | doogie: our own | 07:54 |
| bob2 | bluefoxicy: install one paclage at a time? no. | 07:55 |
| bluefoxicy | bob2: actually, I can use a tmpfs to store the archives on too (I do that to build crap) | 07:55 |
| elmo | mdz: indeed... IIRC, he even said, "y'all can beat me senseless if it isn't" | 07:55 |
| elmo | tho maybe I made that up | 07:55 |
| bluefoxicy | bob2: it needs to be <1.4G | 07:55 |
| thom | ...maybe | 07:55 |
| bluefoxicy | /dev/hda3 1.4G 881M 514M 64% | 07:55 |
| bluefoxicy | bob2: where do archives get downloaded to by apt | 07:59 |
| bluefoxicy | I would like to mount a tmpfs there. | 07:59 |
| bob2 | bluefoxicy: /var/cache/apt/archives/ | 07:59 |
| bluefoxicy | hmm. Apt will bitch if partial/ isn't in there (no, it won't make it itself, sarge gave me that problem) | 08:00 |
| Kamion | yes, that's kind of annoying | 08:01 |
| bluefoxicy | it should be fix so that a ram based filesystem can be mounted there; I usually have 2G swap and mount 2G tmpfs (I have 768M ram) | 08:01 |
| bluefoxicy | fixed | 08:01 |
| bluefoxicy | wtf, do I speak english or not | 08:01 |
| Kamion | don't see why you couldn't mount a ramdisk there provided you did mkdir partial in the script that mounts it | 08:03 |
| Kamion | seems fairly trivial | 08:03 |
| bluefoxicy | yeah | 08:03 |
| bluefoxicy | except that you can't make scripts in fstab :) | 08:03 |
| bluefoxicy | heh | 08:04 |
| bluefoxicy | options: | 08:04 |
| Kamion | plenty of options | 08:04 |
| bluefoxicy | -o `/sbin/mount_tmpfs` | 08:04 |
| bluefoxicy | you could hack up a script to do that :P | 08:04 |
| lamont | mdz: you want ftbfs bugs for hoary build failures yet, or wait until we get more of it there? | 08:05 |
| mdz | lamont: if the package is up to date (synched or merged), a bug should be filed | 08:06 |
| bluefoxicy | Need to get 230MB of archives. | 08:09 |
| bluefoxicy | After unpacking 679MB of additional disk space will be used. | 08:09 |
| bluefoxicy | does the 679 include the archives? | 08:09 |
| Kamion | don't think so | 08:09 |
| Kamion | could be wrong, but I don't think so. check the apt source if you want to be sure | 08:09 |
| thom | pretty sure it doesn't | 08:14 |
| lamont | mdz: was more of a priority question. | 08:14 |
| === lamont needs to spend some time on the ogre buildd model... (Ogre's are like onions...) | ||
| tseng | mmm, layers | 08:18 |
| === lamont thought donkey had some better reasons, though.. | ||
| amu | lamont: ? | 08:23 |
| lamont | amu: Shrek references | 08:24 |
| lamont | (movie) | 08:24 |
| amu | hehe i didnt saw it | 08:25 |
| lamont | amu: specifically, the current ubuntu buildd infrastructure has the neat little bug that main packages are sometimes built with universe packages satisfying the build-depends, instead of main packages. | 08:25 |
| lamont | amu: Shrek (an ogre) waxes philosophical about onions and their similarities to ogres at one point | 08:25 |
| amu | lamont: local or home editon ? | 08:26 |
| lamont | amu: we're talking buildd here, not liveCD | 08:26 |

| bluefoxicy | heh | 11:02 |

| === bluefoxicy has a nekkid catboi for his background, but his leg's in the way :o cute though. | ||

| bluefoxicy | yeah, but cute | 11:05 |

| bluefoxicy | exposure? | 11:07 |

| pitti | mdz: Hi, I'm back. Have you got a minute? | 11:08 |
| mdz | pitti: yes | 11:15 |
| mdz | my network was hosed, but I've just fixed it | 11:15 |
| pitti | mdz: can you please approve #2743? | 11:15 |
| pitti | mdz: in addition, I wanted to ask you whether I should prepare some USNs and which list to send them to | 11:16 |
| mdz | pitti: yes, you should | 11:16 |
| mdz | pitti: use the format that I used for the first two | 11:16 |
| mdz | send them to ubuntu-security-announce, Bcc'd to bugtraq and full-disclosure | 11:16 |
| pitti | mdz: Oh, I need to subscribe to this list | 11:17 |
| mdz | pitti: that would be good, yes :-) | 11:17 |
| mdz | pitti: do you have a login to edit the website? | 11:17 |
| Kamion | mdz: if, hypothetically, I wanted to make a security fix to warty/universe, I take it you want backports there too? | 11:17 |
| mdz | we also have a security errata section on the website now | 11:17 |
| mdz | Kamion: yes | 11:17 |
| pitti | mdz: I got a password, never tried it though; should be possible | 11:17 |
| mdz | Kamion: my current feeling is that we can be liberal with universe things which FTBFS | 11:17 |
| mdz | and for other things, we should have criteria very similar to main | 11:18 |
| Kamion | fair enough, I'll try to pick out the relevant changeset | 11:19 |
| Kamion | are we sending USNs for universe in the event that we do security updates? | 11:19 |
| Kamion | (this is off the clock - I'm doing the upload to Debian anyway) | 11:20 |
| elmo | mdz: we do? | 11:20 |
| mdz | elmo: we do what? | 11:20 |
| mdz | Kamion: good question, hadn't thought about it | 11:21 |
| pitti | mdz: is there a tool which generates these pacakge lists with md5sums automatically? | 11:21 |
| elmo | have a security errata section | 11:21 |
| elmo | 'cos /security/ still seems to go to the silly team page | 11:21 |
| mdz | elmo: it's hidden under 'documentation' at the moment | 11:22 |
| elmo | I think we should do USN's for universe just with the usual "this is not the component you want to use </hand-wave>" disclaimer | 11:22 |
| mdz | http://www.ubuntulinux.org/support/documentation/usn/errorreferencefolder_view | 11:22 |
| mdz | pitti: yes | 11:22 |
| mdz | pitti: amber generates them | 11:22 |
| elmo | that is.. well hidden :) | 11:23 |
| pitti | mdz: hmm, can I download it from somewhere? | 11:23 |
| elmo | mmph, we don't even have prettified HTML versions :( | 11:24 |
| mdz | elmo: where does amber send that stuff yet? | 11:25 |
| mdz | elmo: cut me some slack, I did it by hand :-) | 11:25 |
| elmo | mdz: katie@security.u.c -> team@security.u.c -> you | 11:25 |
| mdz | elmo: by the way, does security@ubuntu.* go to the right place? | 11:25 |
| elmo | hmm, no, probably not, I'll fix | 11:25 |
| mdz | elmo: please add pitti to team@ | 11:27 |
| elmo | k | 11:27 |
| mdz | so that he gets the amber mails | 11:27 |
| pitti | mdz: ah, this amber stuff comes by mail whenever something is uploaded to *-security? | 11:28 |
| mdz | pitti: no, it comes when amber is run | 11:28 |
| elmo | security@canonical too, you think? | 11:28 |
| elmo | pitti: amber is what actually releases the security uploads into the archive | 11:28 |
| mdz | elmo: security@canonical.com = your website has been defaced, dude | 11:28 |
| mdz | in which case, I think that's all you :-P | 11:28 |
| mdz | pitti: I need a 10 minute workrave break and then we can go over this stuff | 11:29 |
| elmo | 10 minute?? that's workrave on the "slackers'r'us" setting ;-P | 11:29 |
| pitti | elmo: nice; since the stuff that I uploaded today is not yet installed, I should get the amber mails now, too, right? | 11:30 |
| pitti | mdz: no problem, I'm fixing imagemagick in the meantime | 11:30 |

| amu | mdz: good question :) i've no idea what they want from me, i ignored such requests in past :) well my short answer would be look to the web, thats probably not such polite, they expect :) | 11:52 |

| pitti | mdz: those bugs who are pending need to be approved by you (currently 2743 and 2769) | 11:53 |
| pitti | mdz: the bugs for which I uploaded packages to the security queue are open again with normal priority | 11:53 |
| mdz | pitti: what about the ones I forwarded to you without filing bugs? are any of those still pending? I don't remember how many there were | 11:55 |
| elmo | what's the USN-<n>-<n> notation? advisory number, and version of that advisory num ? | 11:55 |
| pitti | mdz: so far that were only xpdf and cups | 11:55 |

| pitti | mdz: the libpng stuff is also already dealt with | 11:56 |

| mdz | ok, leaving 2743 and 2769 | 11:59 |
| pitti | mdz: 2743 and 2769 need to be approved by you | 11:59 |
| pitti | yes | 11:59 |
| mdz | pitti: I am happy for you to upload to the security queue without waiting for approval | 11:59 |
| mdz | pitti: just be careful with the version number | 11:59 |
| pitti | mdz: okay, thanks. That eases the process a lot | 11:59 |
| pitti | are the current version numbers okay? | 11:59 |
| mdz | pitti: that way the packages can be built immediately, and we can base review on what is in the security queue | 12:00 |
| pitti | i. g. if the last version was -2, the update would be -2ubuntu0.1 | 12:00 |
| mdz | there is less potential for error tat way | 12:00 |
