ddaaNow... if only I could get this import to go that far before hanging...12:32
lifelessddaa: happy taxi's ?12:46
ddaaNot there yet :-(12:46
ddaaI ran an import not long ago and it just hung...12:46
ddaaAnd I have been carried away trying to debug the hang.12:46
lifelessstrace -p pid - bet you a beer its waiting on a futex12:46
ddaaThat's vague...12:46
lifelessif its waiting on a futex, its the Queue12:46
ddaaI'm tracing the damn thing with twisted spewage.12:46
carlosnight!12:46
ddaalifeless: regarding the hangs, I often have them after "launched local CVS server"12:52
ddaaJust not when I want them to happen of course.12:52
ddaaIs there any pyarch around there?12:53
lifelessafter the local CVS server launches, there is an rlog call, which can take non-trivial time.12:53
lifelessthere isn't any pyarch at that point.12:54
ddaaThat's hang situation. Not impatience. No network traffic, no cpu usage, no i/o frenzy.12:55
lifelessok, thats a concern then.12:55
lifelesswhat does strace show you ?12:55
ddaaNot stracing...12:55
lifeless(when I see that, its often very low cpu, but present)12:55
ddaaspewing, but it's working okay atm.12:55
lifelessok, next time it happens, attach a strace to the slave before you kill it12:56
ddaaWell... I do have some background activity... so maybe I'm missing it... but that would suprise me very very much.12:56
ddaaOkay.12:56
ddaaIf it's hung, I s'pose strace will show nothing, right?12:57
lifelessstrace will show the call that hung01:00
ddaaMh. Okay.01:00
lifelessif you see multiple processes as the slave (old style threads), attach to them all, one will be the slave event loop, and not helpful.01:01

kikothere seems to be something in html.vim there03:01

KinnisonHi carlos11:17
KinnisonRight; which database should we be using on mawson?11:20
SteveAelmo: ping?11:36
KinnisonWhat's a futex and why would gzip be waiting on one?11:37
SteveAa future mutex?11:38
ddaafast mutex, that's a linux kernel thing.11:39
SteveA"fut alors"11:39
KinnisonRight; 'cos apt-ftparchive gets stuck11:39
Kinnisonand this is irritating because it's why my test-run didn't finish11:40
ddaahttp://ds9a.nl/futex-manpages/futex2.html11:41
ddaaThe sys_futex system call provides a method for a program to wait for a value at a given address to change, and a method to wake up anyone waiting on a particular address. While the addresses for the same memory in separate processes may not be identical, the kernel maps them interally so the same memory mapped in different locations will correspond for sys_futex calls.  Futexes are typically used to implement the contended case of a lock in shared 11:42
KinnisonSo can I stop it using them since it's clearly broken?11:49
ddaaI'd rather suspect a userspace bug.11:51

ddaapsycopg.OperationalError, FATAL:  database "launchpad_ftest" does not exist01:49
lifelessspiv_: around?01:49
spiv_Yeah.01:50
lifeless^^^^^^^601:50
spiv_It's using the default value from canonical.lp.dbname.01:50
ddaaI need to doublecheck some stuff, but at first I find that suprising since job loading is done from the database.01:50
lifelessddaa: taxi runs in the other process01:50
spiv_ddaa: Ah... but job loading happens in the master.01:50
lifelesscompletely decoupled01:50
spiv_Including decoupled configuration of things like databases :)01:50
ddaaspiv_: other threads do not use the same value of canonical.lp.dbname?01:50
lifelessddaa: threads have nothing to do with this ?01:51
spiv_ddaa: What else accesses the db from the slave?  I thought the slave got its directions from the master?01:51
ddaalifeless: I do not know what has to do with what, but if the only db name used is read from the canonical.lp module, and that module is loaded only once, I cannot see how that can happen.01:52
lifelessspiv_: nothing else in the slave talks to the db01:52
lifelessddaa: is the slave running from the same checkout as the master ?01:53
ddaalifeless: I do not see how it could be differently, and anyway I do not see how that would be relevant. The database name is set in master.cfg immediately after first importing launchpad.db.01:54
lifelessddaa: *thats in the master*01:54
ddaaHa...01:54
lifeless*taxi is in the slave*01:54
ddaaOkay.01:54
lifelessget much sleep last night ? :)01:54
ddaaThen how should I configure that in the slave?01:54
ddaaNot much... I stayed up waaay to late looking for a french place to buy the specific lappy I'd like.01:55
ddaaI'm not sure I'd get the full benefit of the garantee if I buy it from some other country...01:55
ddaaSoooooo... spiv_? What's the place to set the dbname for the slave?01:56
spiv_ddaa: canonical.lp.dname ;)01:57
ddaaI'd very much prefer something that does not involve hardcoding settings...01:57
ddaamaybe that data could be passed down the wire... e.g. in the Job?01:58
spiv_Yeah, it probably could be.01:58
ddaaSo, if I just put an additional attribute in the job loaded from the master, it's going to be accessible by the slave? The job is pickled or something then passed on the wire?01:59
spiv_Or make a sitecustomize.py that overrides it ;)02:00
lifelessddaa: no, don't pass it to the Job02:00
lifelessin production that would be a PITA.02:01
lifelessa sitecustomize.py is more appropriate.02:01
ddaaspiv_: Please explain. I want all configuration to stay in the botmaster directory. You suggest putting an optional module there and have buildbot try to load it?02:01
ddaaMh... actually, it should be in the slave's directory...02:02
spiv_echo "import canonical.lp; canonical.lp.dbname='blah'" > sitecustomize.py; PYTHONPATH=. twistd etcetc...02:02
ddaaI see. I'd load that information from Job.py?02:03
ddaaIn runJob, maybe?02:03
spiv_(When starting up, i.e. before running a program, python will try to import sitecustomize, so if you have it somewhere on your PYTHONPATH...)02:03
ddaaHa. Thanks, I was not aware of that.02:03
spiv_It's a bit of hack to do it that way.02:04
spiv_I think perhaps mixing configuration and code like we currently are with canonical.lp.dbname is not ideal.02:04
ddaaIt will be time to change it later if there is a need for other sitecustomize...02:04
ddaaA spiv_: sure, canonical.lp could be modified to try to load e.g. lp_config and get hostname and dbname from there if it's available in the pythonpath.02:05
spiv_Right.02:06
ddaaspiv_: should not be very difficult to do...02:06
spiv_But the details should be debated on the launchpad list, I think.02:06
spiv_I suspect SteveA and others will have useful insights here.02:06
ddaaOkay. I'll write a message to launchpad@ right now.02:07
spiv_Another option would be to read them from environment variables.02:07
=== carlos [~carlos@69.Red-80-33-181.pooles.rima-tde.net] has joined #launchpad
ddaaAnd I'll do the sitecustomize.py thing  in the meantime.02:08
ddaa[env]  yeah, I'll suggest that too.02:08
ddaaBut I think loading a file is simpler.02:08
lifelessfile please02:08
ddaaHarder to get wrong.02:09
=== spiv_ nods
SteveAcan we use ZConfigure for everything, and have one standard launchpad.conf file ?02:13
SteveAand not lots of files for different purposes02:13
=== ddaa fears the Z ;-)
spiv_SteveA: That'd be great if every upstream package we used (e.g. Twisted, Buildbot) already used ZConfigure :)02:15
spiv_But unfortunately that's not the case.  Buildbot's config stuff is a bit of a mess, too.02:15
SteveAwhy can't *we* use ZConfigure?02:16
SteveAwe're not using any of these tools in the raw.  Can't we write our own script to start buildbot using our own config?02:16
spiv_Buildbot's a nasty case, config-wise.  It really is a bit of mess that I wouldn't want to touch without a couple of days to properly fix it.02:17
spiv_(Maybe it's been fixed in upstream SVN, though..?)02:18
spiv_Are there any good docs on ZConfigure, btw?02:18

ddaaesp. if the db does not exist!02:53

dilysMerge to rocketfuel@canonical.com/launchpad--devel--0: transactional infoImporter, tweak infoUpdater for production use (patch-704)03:14
Kinnisondilys: thanks babe.03:14
KinnisonSteveA: right; that's about it wrt. dogfood then03:15
KinnisonSteveA: in more general terms; my plans for lucille for the coming week are...03:15
Kinnison1. Get the lucilleconfig columns populated and get the canonical.lucille.Publisher class generating apt.conf files for apt-ftparchive03:15
Kinnison2. Design the version domination algorithm (mostly stealing from katie if elmo will let me)03:16
BradBKinnison: stub probably wants to automate the code upgrade/db upgrade/data migration stuff on mawson.03:16
Kinnison3. Get domination stuff.03:16
KinnisonBradB: for the most part; that shouldn't affect me much03:16
Kinnisonoh and somewhere in there I need to split launchpad/{database,interfaces}/publishing.py into more manageable chunks and get my pending patch cleaned up to be integrated03:17
KinnisonBut that shoudl be it.03:17
Kinnisonphew.03:17
kikosplitting up publishing would be appreciated, cool03:17
SteveAdomination is what was called overrides?03:18
KinnisonSteveA: No03:18
=== Kinnison will add 'domination' to the glossary
KinnisonDomination is the process by which the new version of a package ousts the older version from the archive03:18
KinnisonThis is related to it having been built cleanly on all architectures etc.03:18
=== Kinnison needs to chat with elmo about this
kikoreally?03:19
kikoI never heard that term. and what do you mean by ousts? becomes the new "current"?03:19
Kinnisonkiko: Yes; that's what I mean03:20
kikoI see. 03:20
Kinnisonkiko: I haven't used the term before; so you won't have heard it yet :-)03:20
kikowell, one thing that does happen is different versions of current for different architectures. does that fit in with your reasoning?03:20
KinnisonYes03:21
KinnisonIt's all to do with the Pending,Published,Superceded,PendingRemoval state machine in the publishing tables03:21
kikoI was just lead off by your phrase "on all architectures". 03:21
kikoyeah.03:21
KinnisonBut I fear we're getting off-topic here :-)03:22
SteveABradB: you've been forging ahead with the set-up on mawson.  Can you talk a bit about that, what people need to do, and what is still to be done?03:22
BradBhm03:22
BradBI put a new code drop on mawson late yesterday03:22
BradBelmo needed to do something things for some people, and I think that's mostly (if not all) done.03:22
=== cprov [~cprov@200.158.100.251] has joined #launchpad
BradBstub (and whoever else) need to come up with the policy for how we're going to update the code and update the db schema and do data migration03:23
BradBsome discussion was started on lp@ about this, but last i checked, no firm decision reached03:23
cprovsorry, I'm late03:23
BradBnot sure if mark wants a hand in that03:23
SteveAhi cprov03:23
BradBso, here's the problem:03:24
stubdata migration and db schema upgrades should be no problem - we went through the issues at oxford. I just need to write some fairly minor code.03:24
SteveAwe need to decide and get stuff working before mark gets back03:24
BradBoh, ok03:24
BradBindeed03:24
BradBso yeah, for us, the data on the dogfood server is "production" data (...goes to get link...)03:24
cprovhi, steve... did I miss something important ? (debonzi is doing a report ...)03:24

BradBis it "stable" yet? no. but we still want to start asap.03:27
BradBstub: I don't think it's a bad thing.03:27
KinnisonBradB: I've imported the cert; but I still 40303:27

Kinnisoncarlos: oh03:28
Kinnisoncarlos: you tock03:28
Kinnisoncarlos: you rock too03:29
carlos:-P03:29
BradBand i guess the one other thing is that it'd be nice if we could run Launchpad with bin/launchpadctl {start,stop,restart}, for which I've filed a bug.03:29
stubI suspect we want the sample data, if for no other reason all our accounts are in there.03:29
BradBI'm not in that sample data, last I checked.03:29
BradBMaybe I should add me. :)03:29
carlosstub: perhaps it's better don't use sample data and create the accounts with the script we have for that...03:30
kikoneither am I IIRC03:30
BradBanything else people need to know about the mawson deployment/03:30
kikoand I would rather not use sample data, I think03:30
BradBstub: Oh, I haven't tested your mail thing on there yet...not sure how that works "out of the box."03:31
stubok. I'll rebuild launchpad_dogfood (?) with an empty schema, in which case we need to create accounts for everyone.03:31
BradBSteveA: Are we reporting all package bugs in Malone now too then?03:31
BradBstub: yes, launchpad_dogfood03:32
SteveAwhat do you mean by "package bugs" ?03:32
BradBOh, and launchpad.u.c is the *only* dogfood app running on mawson. Rosetta alpha is intended to migrate to that instance as well.03:32
BradBSteveA: bugs in ubuntu source packages03:32
BradBafterall, we can use malone to report malone bugs, but it's not really meant for that.03:33
stubBradB: I think the email delivery is solid and dogfoodable if the nofications now have valid to and cc's being set (it was still hardcoded to you when I last played with it)03:33
SteveAI think that's mdz's call03:33
carlosBradB: will that dogfood database preserved until the final release?03:33
BradBcarlos: yes, it's definitely not intended to be blown away from today. :)03:34
stubBradB: Might be worth leaving it off though if we arn't sure - don't want to have forgotten a hardcoded 'owned=1' and spam poor Mark :-)03:34
carlosBradB: then it will be Rosetta beta :-)03:34
carlosI mean, we will move with the beta release03:34
BradBstub: yeah, that's a bug I'll have to fix soonish (and it's a bug that I don't think is only limited to Malone.)03:35
KinnisonSteveA: if I head off to the post office etc now; can you send a meeting summary to me by email?03:35

SteveABradB: yep03:47
BradBSteveA: yesterday mark wanted to walk mdz through malone, but unfortunately the server wasn't up and running quite in time.03:47
BradBSteveA: it will be really valuable for mdz to see it, because we want it to be used for source package bugs asap.03:48
BradBSteveA: so if it can be arranged to have someone else walk him through it, that would be good.03:48
SteveAcan you walk him through it?03:48

SteveAthen, mdz can make the call as to if they can start using it03:48

stubOur first audience is ourselves. Warthogs and ubuntu stuff follows.03:48
SteveAyou'll need to make sure mdz understands what data we're keeping and what we're not03:49

kikowe're currently approaching the status where everything we touch is surrounded by an SEP field03:54
SteveAin non-douglass-adams-english ?03:54
kikoSomeone Else's Problem 03:54
kikofrom now on it's going to be a lot harder to move forward with soyuz without some guidance03:55
kikowe have one last thing to improve which is significant, which is the per-developer package listing03:55
kikowe want to include as much of packages.qa's features there without making blood come out of users' eyes03:56
kikobut then there's mainly polish to be done because we are halted on main bits that are not in our hands currently03:56
kikobuildbot and katie's successor are probably the main blockers (and the db schema changes that come with them)03:57
kikowe've started picking up the malone/rosetta integration bits because they were bothering us03:57
kikobut buildbot and katie2 (what's her name?) are a lot more involved and require some Decisions From Above03:58
kikoI believe lucille, buildbot and katie2 integration block dogfooding, to be honest, because if you can't track package uploads, approvals and builds, then, well..04:00
kikohave I said enough already? I can go on for a bit more if people like (but you know that already <wink>)04:01
SteveABradB, stub: sabdfl suggests to start with a clean-ish database04:02
kikota04:02
stubSo these decisions from above - is this blocked until Mark can look at the issue, or do you just need feedback or work from the buildbot and katie2 people?04:02

stubOur first bit of successful dogfooding - well done :-)05:53
BradBstub: What's the correct way to add a source package called "malone" to LP? I'm not sure what namespaces (e.g. distro) to create, etc. to make that appear in the system in a sane way.05:54

BradBdarn, I really need at least a couple source packages and a couple products/product releases in LP before I can do anything useful. 06:01
=== BradB waits for kiko-fud or cprov to show up
stubBradB: distro is nullable, so I suspect you can just create a row in the Sourcepackage table for it with a corresponding entry in the SourcepackageName table.06:03

BradBspiv_: ping06:14
spiv_Pong.06:14
BradBer, wait, maybe not...06:15
BradBhere's the problem:06:15
stubKinnison: I'm just emailing admins@ about bakups - have you done librarian, or can you give me a directory name and I'll add it to the same email?06:15
BradBi need products and product releases in malone, so that mark can usefully demo features to mdz that require those06:15
Kinnisonstub: /srv/launchpad.ubuntu.com/librarian/ is where it'll be06:16
BradBspiv_: i was going to ask you to add products and product releases for "malone", "soyuz", and "rosetta", but that probably doesn't make sense.06:16
KinnisonIf we're done fiddling the db then I'll start the librarian running06:16
stubKinnison: We should backup the whole thing? Or is there a data directory?06:16
BradBsince having them as sp's should be enough...but in any case, we need some products/product releases in there asap, because the demo's in 2h 45m, and I've still got to test with some realish data.06:16
spiv_Hmm.06:16
stubI'm done fiddling - unless Brad has a need to dump the database?06:17
Kinnisonstub: the whole thing *is* the data dir :-)06:17
stuboic06:17
stub:-)06:17
Kinnisonstub: the metadata is stored in the db :-)06:17
stubI assumed the source code was in there, but of course that is in lib/canonical/librarian :-)06:17
=== Kinnison grins
BradBspiv_: where do product/product releases come from?06:18
BradBi.e. from where would that data be imported, or using which scripts?06:18
spiv_The arch guys have set up some of that for their production importd.06:19
spiv_I'll see if there's any useful production data we can snarf for this...06:20
BradBspiv_: can you arrange to have that imported into launchpad_dogfood on mawson asap, if possible?06:20
spiv_The production db has some products, but no product releases.06:21
KinnisonSo I can start the librarian then?06:21
stubKinnison: Yup06:22
BradBspiv_: can i leave it to you to somehow get sane products and product releases in there in the next 30 mins or so?06:22
spiv_Ok.06:22
BradBthanks06:23
BradBKinnison: what does the librarian do? i know it has something to do with serving up packages, but i'm not totally clear (does it have anything to do with getting sp's and spr's into lp_df by any chance?)06:23

stubtarballs, iso images, whatever. All binaries and documents that don't need to live in the database.06:27
Kinnisonbasically anything where you would say "Hmm, I can't store that much data in a column" you'd use the librarian06:28
stubYou just say 'store this file and give me an id' or 'give me the url for this file' (well.. that second is a todo...). 06:28
BradBah, that's what i thought06:28
KinnisonWe're fairly close to being able to do the url thing06:28
BradBso it makes it easy to go from sqlobjects to the files related to them, presumably.06:28
KinnisonSo gina stores the debs, tarballs etc in the librarian and lucille pulls them out again for example06:28
BradBwoo06:29
KinnisonWell, we can go from sqlobjects to an ID; I'll try and finish the bits that will allow us to go from a LibraryFileAlias instance to a URL to a file or to the file itself06:29
BradBsounds cool06:30
KinnisonBut that is not even on my "next week's work" radar currently06:31

BradBhttps://launchpad.ubuntu.com/malone/bugs/107:07
BradBhover over "bugs" in the breadcrumbs07:07
BradBnotice the ++vh++ in the link07:07
SteveAthat's normal07:11
SteveAthe breadcrumbs are broken, and shouldn't be in launchpad at the moment07:11
SteveAthe virtual hosting is working fine, no need to bother elmo07:12
SteveAthe breadcrumbs are implemented in a way that doesn't use the proper zope3 api to be aware of virtual hosting07:12
SteveAthe underlying problem is zope3's attachment to "location" in the object graph, and linking this to URLs07:13
SteveAthis part of zope3 is rather bogus07:13
SteveAI'm campaigning for it to be changed in zope3, but supporting canonical stuff is nearer the top of my todo list07:14
BradBKinnison: if i restart DF does that affect you in any way?07:21
BradBSteveA: maybe it's the "and linking this to URL's part" that smells.07:22
BradBi would have thought that anything that knows how to make a URL from a location should know if I'm a VH.07:22
SteveAthe point is we're not using locations07:22
SteveAlocations are supposed to be optional in zope307:23
SteveAnormal python code doesn't use locations07:23
BradBah07:23
SteveAjust the zope3 pseudo-content-management system07:23
SteveAthat is __name__ and __parent__07:23
KinnisonBradB: If you restart the launchpad instance the librarian is fine07:23
KinnisonBradB: if you want to fuck with the db then you may have to kill/restart the librarian07:24
SteveAI want to have a proper think about this, and implement the right solution for dealing with virtual hosting.  I can't do this until I get back from vacation.07:24
SteveAmeanwhile, either turn breadcrumbs off, or hack it into working somehow07:24
SteveAbut, don't embark on major architecture (like making all our stuff "locations" in the zope3 sense)07:24
BradBSteveA: so I make myself placeful by implementing IContained?07:24
SteveAno07:24
SteveAplease don't do that07:24
BradBno, I wouldn't, but I'm curious07:25
SteveAthat's biting off the zope3 locations crack07:25
SteveAand I don't want us to go there07:25
BradBI just meant in "normal" Zope 3 development, would that be how I'd do it?07:25
SteveAkind of07:25
SteveAthat's part of it07:25
SteveAusing zope3 containers for everything would sort it out for you07:25
BradBbut we won't be doing that :P07:25
BradBok, so maybe this won't suck when you get back from sicily07:26
SteveAyeah.  I will be bringing my laptop and archives on vacation07:26
SteveAI don't promise to do anything with them, though07:26
SteveAthe virtual hosting / urls / etc. stuff touches more than just breadcrumbs07:27
SteveAso I do want to get it right.07:27
SteveAbut, I think I might end up checking out my thoughts with Jim, and possibly tweaking parts of zope307:27
SteveAthere's already one relevent tweak in the pipeline, to make our use of suburls and traversal cleaner.07:28
SteveAbut, i need to talk to jim further about it07:28

spiv_Yeah, that sounds like a good idea.07:33
spiv_I'll take a look, thanks.07:33

SteveAI don't want random configuration settings to appear in zcml or random python files.07:34
SteveApragmatically, we need to do this now for buildbot07:34
SteveAbut it should not stay that way.07:34
SteveAI'd also like you to make launchpad look for launchpad.conf.in before launchpad.conf07:35
SteveAso, we can provide a default launchpad.conf.in, but it can be overridden with launchpad.conf07:35
spiv_Right.  Buildbot is probably the worst-case here; the configuration stuff it already has is ugly and requires a fair bit of surgery to the code to fix.07:36

BradBs,packaged,packages,08:16
BradB2. I added a package for "malone" without a distro right now. Not sure if you guys have a more sane way to do this, but we need packages in the right places called "malone", "rosetta", and "soyuz"08:17
kiko-fudsource packages? or products?08:17
BradB3. I thought we were going to meet 45 minutes ago to discuss Malone. :P08:17

BradB"by hand" i.e. via the UI08:40
kiko-fudyou can't create packages using the soyuz interface.08:40

BradBdebonzi: malone is written to cater to open source linux software i.e. packages, products, etc.08:52
BradBdebonzi: so, for dogfooding purposes, we're going to shoehorn the ability to file lp bugs in malone by reported them against "unreleased packages" called "launchpad", "malone", "rosetta", and "soyuz" (unless there are better names)08:53
BradBi've already added malone, but I need you to:08:53
BradB1. review that the way i added malone in the db is sane.08:53
BradB2. add the other three08:53
BradBplease08:53
BradBby "added malone" i mean "added malone as a sourcepackage"08:54
kiko_bzdebonzi, do you have access to mawson?08:55
debonzikiko_bz, I need to check08:55
debonziBradB, right.. so what you need is add in sample data malone, soyuz, rosetta?08:56
kiko_bzright08:56
debonzias sourcepackages08:56
BradBand launchpad08:57
BradBmalone's already added, but i need you to verify that i did it in a sane way08:57
debonziBradB, right.. I do that right now08:57
BradBthanks08:57
debonziBradB, no problem08:57
debonzikiko_bz, mawson ask me for password08:58
BradBelmo: ^08:58
debonzikiko_bz, do I need it now?08:58
BradByes please08:59
elmohe didn't have an account, fixed08:59
BradBthanks08:59
kiko_bzwondy08:59
debonziyes, I am there09:00
BradBsudo -u launchpad -s09:00
BradBpsql launchpad_dogfood09:00
kiko_bzor bash to make it easier09:00
BradBhm?09:00
BradBthose are the commands debonzi needs :)09:00
kiko_bzI mean09:01
kiko_bzsudo -u launchpad bash09:01
kiko_bzgives him a launchpad shell09:01
kiko_bzfrom which he can pg_dump or psql as much as he likes09:01
BradBso does -s :)09:01
kiko_bzoh that's the -s09:02
BradBwell, it gives him a $SHELL09:02
kiko_bzI was thinking it's one of those useless options09:02
elmoalways either use -s or do 'sudo su - launchpad' instead09:02
BradBkiko_bz: heh heh09:02
debonziBradB, did you add launchpad as a distribution?09:03
BradBelmo: by the way, can you make it so that i can sudo -u zope -s on gentoo without typing my p/w every time?09:03
BradBdebonzi: nope09:03
BradBdebonzi: i'm leaving that to you guys to best decide how it fits into soyuz.09:03
kiko_bzdebonzi, but is launchpad a distro?09:03
debonziBradB, no it isn't09:04
debonziBradB, but it is there09:04
BradBsomebody else added it then. the data in there is a dump of the prod db.09:04
BradBer, wait09:05
debonziBradB, ok.. Ill leave like it for now09:05
BradBgargh, yeah that was me starting to do it through the UI before stub suggested i could mod the tables directly09:05
BradBthe lp distro can be removed09:06
debonziBradB, ok09:06
elmoBradB: meh09:08
BradBok, maybe not09:08
SteveAelmo: please add "meh" to the ProjectGlossary09:16

BradBSteveA: heh heh09:23
BradBkiko_bz: when you're ready to talk about malone, i've got in mind something that would be really useful for you guys to work on09:24
=== Kinnison -> London
debonziBradB, this db is going to be used only for malone or this that should be also available for the other aplications?09:31
debonzis/that/data09:31
=== cprov [~cprov@200.158.100.251] has joined #launchpad
BradBdebonzi: it's a real, live launchpad instance, so for all apps09:34
BradBwe're the only ones using it though09:34
BradBwe == lp devs09:34
=== cprov announces gina just finnish on mawson
debonziBradB, am asking because a sourcepackage lives in a distrorelease, so if this data should be used for soyuz for example the db should have a distro and distrorelease at least09:35
cprovKinnison: ping09:35
BradBdebonzi: the intent is that you guys (or cprov and kiko_bz...whoever's involved in that) will import all the "real" data we need to make soyuz look sane.09:36
debonziBradB, at least for malone sourcepackages launchpad, soyuz, rosetta and malone should be available... do you have a way to check?09:36
BradBi'll check09:37
debonziBradB, right..09:37
Kinnisoncprov: I'm about to go to London09:37
BradBdebonzi: yep, they're there. thanks dude.09:37
debonziBradB, so I beliave I need to wait the "real" data to be there and than publish this packages "by hand"09:37
Kinnisonkiko_bz: sabdfl and I have agreed that I'll take on gina. I'll chat with you tomorrow about it09:37
=== Kinnison has to go now
=== Kinnison has a dead server to revive
=== Kinnison -> London
cprovKinnison: can you send me instruction to run librarian ?09:38
BradBKinnison: how low-tech is that!09:38
debonziBradB, you are welcome.. if something is missing or you want to change, just ask for09:38
BradBdebonzi: depends...what does "publishing" a package mean? adds it to a certain distro?09:39
debonziBradB, yes.. we can say that09:42
BradBdebonzi: so you plan to have a distro for m/s/l/r?09:43
BradBwe probably shouldn't09:44
BradBunless we should09:44
debonziBradB, if they should be available in soyuz (and I think they do) yes.. but it will probably be done later09:44
BradBi dunno, maybe that'll make some things easier to look at in the UI if they belong to a distro09:45
kiko_bzKinnison, that's cool, I'm on it09:48
BradBspiv_: do you do nicole?09:50
BradB(pun intended)09:50
!alindeman:*! Hi all! Interested users from Poland: #linux.pl is a channel for Polish Linux users created for support and general Linux discussion. Stop by if you'd like.09:55
cprovBradB: what is up w/ nicole ?09:59
BradBcprov: i just wanted to know what to tell mark if he wants to know when gina and nicole will have been run on launchpad_dogfood10:00
cprovBradB: ok, in few words:  gina will agregatte new sources on a given distro, nicole will add project/product{series/release} for them10:03
BradByeah, i know what they do (i think), but i just wanted to know when all the "real" projects, products and source packages will be brought in.10:04
kiko_bzBradB, this is ugly. I imagine a launchpad distribution could solve problems temporarily -- that is, if it's okay to move bugs to a new package in another distro when we make up our minds :)10:04
kiko_bzBradB, however, this is crack -- doesn't malone track bugs in non-packages?10:04
BradBkiko_bz: that's why i added the launchpad distro earlier.10:04
kiko_bzyes, I realize but see my question.10:05
BradBkiko_bz: a bug is just a bug10:05
kiko_bzwhen.. what's the big deal about with soyuz packages? :)10:05
BradBbugs can be assigned to products and packages10:05
kiko_bzs/wh/th10:05
BradBkiko_bz: so that it looks a little more real (well, a lot more real) when sabdfl demoes it to mdz10:05
BradBwhich happens 6 minutes ago10:06
BradBor not, i guess10:06
kiko_bzBradB, but come on, soyuz *isn't* a package, mdz wouldn't be impressed. he would if you displayed gcc-3.3 :)10:06
kiko_bzdon't we have a bugzilla importer going?10:07
kiko_bzwe could import some upstream bugs related to a package we *do* have in ubuntu10:07
BradBkiko_bz: and, well, dude, it's hard for rosetta to dogfood without packages to translate.10:08
BradBbecause the rosetta alpha is, of course, moving into the DF10:08
cprova bugzilla importer will rock !!! real bugs for real packages <wink>10:08
kiko_bzjustdave, what's the story on the bugzilla importer?10:08
kiko_bzBradB, what's wrong with translating xchat? :)10:09
kiko_bzwe could pull xchat bugs and use xchat packages and translate it too.10:09
justdavekiko_bz: it's not actually an importer, it's a watcher.10:09
kiko_bzah, I see.10:09
justdaveyou file a bug in Malone, then tell it it's an upstream bug and give it which bug system and the bug number10:10
justdavethen it queries the upstream bug for the status periodically and will tell you in malone what the upstream status is10:10
kiko_bzjust status. not comments?10:10

=== mdz_ is now known as mdz
SteveAit isn't fixed yet.  a wiki page stores the text of who edited it.  we just need to get the name rather than the id and store that.10:22
SteveAthe name will be available, we're just not sure where. 10:22
SteveAplone is now serving up correct-looking cacheing headers10:22

kiko_bzsomebody took over kiko today, I don't feel like nickserving them to death though10:24
sabdflthat's your story, is it?10:24
sabdflchatted with kinnison after he landed10:24
sabdfli landed10:25
kiko_bzsort of. sabdfl, we were discussing the immediate issue of the demo of malone with soyuz combo10:25
sabdflhe figures to have mawson up to speed with gina data this week, in collaboration with cprov10:25
kiko_bzwe finally are getting gina to run again10:25
sabdflok10:25
sabdflok10:25
BradBsabdfl: hi. malone dogfood should be ready to rock10:25
sabdflBradB: !10:25
kiko_bzthere's an interesting question which is: do soyuz, rosetta and malone belong to a distribution?10:26
sabdfllet drums roll...10:26
sabdflmdz round?10:26
BradBheh10:26
mdzsabdfl: yep10:26
=== mdz tries to contain his excitement
sabdflbradb has something to show you10:26
sabdflshould we do the walkthrough from irc in this channel, or somewhere else?10:26
SteveAit would be good for the soyuz team to watch,perhaps10:27
BradBoh, ok10:27
mdzmakes no difference to me10:27
cprovsabdfl: gina runs on mawson, nicole probabily too ... I'm waiting to work with Kinnisson to have lucile and librarian support10:27
BradBi was going to do it in #malone-dogfood, but we can probably just do it here10:27
sabdflhttps://launchpad.ubuntu.com10:27
BradBmdz: you'll need the client cert installed, if you don't have it installed already10:27
mdzBradB: I have it10:28
sabdflso let's go straight into malone10:28
BradBok, so shall we start?10:28
mdz"the" client cert?  you mean I didn't get my very own? *pout*10:28
cprovSteveA: how to get the client cert ?10:28
kiko_bzcprov, it went via email from elmo10:28
kiko_bzcprov, see your launchpad archive10:28
BradBcprov: launchpad.p12 to lp@10:29
kiko_bzsave it into a file and then import it into a browser10:29
mdzBradB: where do I start?10:29
kiko_bzEdit/Preferences/Advanced/Security/Certificates on the browser10:29
BradBmdz: malone10:29
kiko_bzFF at least10:29
BradBmdz: we can pretty much go top to bottom through what's listed there10:29
mdzok, I'm there10:29
BradBok, so i'll let you do the actual adding and stuff10:30
BradBmdz: so first off, click "Create a new bug report."10:30
mdzok10:30
mdzauthentication dialog10:30
BradBmdz: enter your user/pass10:31
mdzwhich one would that be?10:31
sabdflbradb: did we pull the data from the production db?10:31
BradBmdz: it's the dump from prod10:31
sabdflfor auth?10:31
BradBsabdfl: yes10:31
sabdflworks for me!10:31
sabdflmdz: the same as your website access10:31
BradBmdz: by the way, you already know the basic ideas behind malone, right?10:32
mdzok, worked10:32
sabdflin fture we'll use a cookie auth system10:32
sabdflso the authentication will look neater10:32
BradBindeed10:33
mdzBradB: I hope so, assuming the spec reflected my input :-)10:33
BradBoh good, wasn't there. :)10:33
sabdflmdz: baby steps, but keep going10:33
BradBmdz: okay, so you can go ahead and enter a bug10:33
mdzshall I fill this out and submit a bug?10:33
mdzok10:33
sabdflfile that as a bug on malone10:33
sabdflthe cookie auth thing10:33
BradByou need to choose a source package too, I think, which will be malone, of course10:34
mdzaw, no source package for ubuntu? :-)10:35
mdzok, bug #5 created10:35
cprovBradB: sourcepackage link  crashes :(10:35
BradBcprov: not sure what you're referring to10:36
BradBmdz: okay, so next up, you can go back to the main malone screen, just for kicks10:36
BradBi.e. the malone tab10:36
mdzok10:36
BradBthe "See the complete bug list"10:36
BradBthen your bug10:36
cprovBradB: simple, access https://launchpad.ubuntu.com/soyuz/distros/ubuntu/src/warty/soyuz10:36
mdzyep10:36
sabdflwe have some suprt project/product/package selection widgets under development10:36
mdzthe 'show bugs you created' defaults to showing all bugs created by everyone10:37
BradBcprov: oh, dude, that's soyuz...no idea there. :)10:37
mdzBradB: yep, works10:37
BradBmdz: ok, any questions first about what you're seeing?10:37
BradBabout what bits mean what, or what they might be used for?10:37
BradBif not, we'll start using them10:37
mdzBradB: the comment bit has two text input widgets10:38
mdzbut they aren't labeled10:38
mdzsubject and body?10:38
BradBmdz: yeah, that sucks, we'll file the bug when we're done10:38
BradBanything else?10:38
kiko_bzyes, I had seen that10:38
cprovBradB: ok, we'll  find10:38
mdzBradB: I'm fiddling10:38
sabdflcomments are still undecided10:38
kiko_bzdidn't I file that bug already? hmmm10:39
sabdflw.r.t. threading etc10:39
mdzBradB: what level of feedback are you looking for?10:39
mdzBradB: e.g., we need a couple of additional statuses10:39
BradBmdz: i just wanted to know if you had any questions about the UI you're seeing before i should you the rest of it10:39
BradBs/should/show/10:39
mdzBradB: will there be an enhanced selection mechanism for the assignee?10:39
BradBmdz: i sure hope so :)10:40
mdzcurrently it seems to be a combobox with every person in it10:40
BradBi think limi's onit10:40
mdzok10:40
BradBsabdfl: is he?10:40
mdzBradB: bug watch = link to an external bug?10:40
BradBmdz: watch the bug as reported on a bugzilla somewhere10:40
BradBsee its status over there10:40
mdzright10:40
sabdflyes, we'l have better selection widgets for person, product, package, project10:40
BradBmdz: bugzilla is the only supported thing to watch right now. i can show you later the interface to where you register those.10:41
mdzBradB: what's the difference between the "add an infested" widgets on the left, and the "add package" and "add product" in the middle?  do they do the same thing?10:41
BradBmdz: no, here's the diff:10:41
sabdflassignment vs infestation10:42
BradBmdz: "packages" and "products" and a general idea, not referring to any specific release, but rather as a way of saying to the maintainer of the package "hey, there's a bug, do something about it"10:42
sabdflwork-to-do vs versions-affected10:42
BradByes10:42
mdzhmm10:42
BradBthat's the most amazingly succint way to put it :)10:42
sabdflhmm?10:42
mdzshouldn't an affected-version imply work-to-do?10:42
sabdflwe could put that into the process10:42
sabdflif you said it affects that version, we can automatically add the assignment too10:43
BradBmdz: work-to-do ends up in infested versions, usually10:43
mdzwhat is the intended workflow?10:43
sabdflwhatever works10:43
mdzso I've submitted a bug and tied it to malone10:43
BradBmalone's a bad example :)10:43
sabdflexcept your bug has nothing to do with malone dude, it's YOUR bug, not mine :-)10:43
mdzlet's pretend malone is packaged in Ubuntu :-)10:43
sabdflall wrong10:44
BradBmdz: it's still early on: but basically:10:44
sabdflhoary is a release of ubuntu, a product in the ubuntu project10:44
BradB1. you assign the bug to sourcepackage gcc-3.310:44
BradB2. gcc-3.3 guy sees it10:44
=== ddaa [~ddaa@nemesis.xlii.org] has left #launchpad []
BradBsabdfl: now 3. does gcc-3.3 guy add the infestations? the UI's going through puberty right now, so i'm not totally clear.10:45
BradBmdz: (because infestations will be automated eventually)10:45
mdzI should sit down and flowchart this out, really10:45
mdzbased on what we've done so far in bugzilla10:45
BradBmdz: needless to say, we've had no real use of malone, so we haven't found out if our workflow sucks or not10:46
sabdflguys, have a guest, back in an hour or two10:46
mdzBradB: right, we'll want to fold the real-world experience we've had into the workflow model10:47
BradBmdz: i think other people should be allowed to come in and add the infestations actually. anyone who sees that that bug exists in a certain release10:47
BradBmdz: in fact, a lot of people may have to add infestations10:47
mdzBradB: ah, so the difference is that the infestations are versioned?10:48
BradBmdz: infestations describe how a bug affects a particular release10:48
BradBmdz: e.g. "affected" is obvious. "dormant" means, "in this release, but we're not using the bit of the code that shows it"10:48
BradBmdz: "victimized" means "not our fault, but we're getting blamed for this bug in your package anyway!"10:49
mdzright10:49
mdz"it's your bug, but it breaks my package"10:49
BradByes10:49
BradBwhereas the product/source package (i.e. non-version) "assignments" are simply a way of getting this bug in the face of the people that need to know about it10:50
BradBand, as you'll not in the UI, each of those individuals or teams then decide the severity and priority of the bug on their own10:50
mdzyeah, I remember this from the data model10:50
SteveAsabdfl: http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/FrontPage/recentchanges10:51
BradBmdz: anything stand out at you straight away that prevents warthogs from reporting bugs with this?10:51
mdzBradB: what is your name for the items which are listed  in the middle table (upstream/package, state, sev, pri, assignedto)?10:51
mdzwhat is each row in that table called?10:52
BradBeither a product assignment or a source package assignment; they've been aggregated into one table now10:52
mdzso an 'assignment'10:52
BradBer, one *listing* in the UI that is10:52
BradBtwo tables in the DB, of course10:52
mdzso we can think of that as "this is what needs to be done in order to close this bug"10:52
mdzand the infestations as "this is where the bug has been observed"10:53
BradBmdz: or "the maintainers of these packages and products" have to do something about fixing this bug (for assignments)10:53
BradBmdz: and yes, that's correct for infestations10:53
mdzBradB: thinking about it, it would be nice to be able to attach a little note to each of those10:54
BradBfor a liberal definition of "observed" (e.g. in the case of victimization)10:54
mdzeach assignment10:54
mdzto be used as a todo list10:54
BradBhm, i guess it would10:54
mdzpackage X needs this change, package Y needs a different change10:54
BradBgood point10:54
mdzthe table would provide a very nice overview that way10:54
BradBnoted10:55
mdzphone call, just a moment10:55
BradBok10:55
mdzhmm, they hung up. never mind\10:56
BradBmdz: notifications are working on almost all the adds and edits currently, but i've left it in test mode until we fix an ownership bug. until then i'm the only one receiving the notificaiton emails.10:58
mdzBradB: are you familiar with how our bugzilla is set up?10:58
BradBmdz: nope10:59
mdzthat might help to understand our existing workflow10:59
mdzok, we have a bugzilla instance, with an Ubuntu product, and a component for every package in the distributio10:59
mdzn10:59
mdzwhen bugs are filed, they get assigned to a dummy user (because we don't know who will be fixing them yet)10:59
mdzcopies of all bug traffic is sent to a central mailing list10:59
mdzI read that mailing list in order to triage bug reports as they come in, and to keep up with the conversations going on in individual bugs11:00
mdzwhen a bug comes in, it either gets a request for more information (if incomplete), or assigned to someone to fix11:00
mdzor sometimes it won't be assigned right away, because we're not yet sure what to do about it11:01
mdzthe assignee will generally either debug the problem interactively with the submitter, fix it with an upload, or forward it upstream11:01
mdzbugs which are waiting for information from the submitter, or forwarded upstream, are sorted later in their todo list11:01
mdzthey will check back from time to time, but for the moment, the bug is someone else's problem11:02
mdzwe don't use bugzilla's NEW/ASSIGNED distinction, at least not consistently, but that's mostly because it's annoying to use11:02
mdzif the process of fixing the bug involves more than one step, all hell breaks loose, and we can't really represent that in bugzilla, so we scribble notes11:03
mdze.g., if multiple packages need changes11:03
BradBah11:03
mdzsometimes, a bug will be fixed for us by an upstream (mostly Debian)11:03
mdzin that case, we queue an import of the fixed version of the package, and make a notation on the bug11:04
mdzlikewise if we upload a fix of our own11:04
mdzwe put the bug in a PENDINGUPLOAD state11:04
mdzwhich indicates that we've dealt with it (lower on the todo list), but that it's still actually present in the distribution (not closed yet)11:04
mdzmuch of the awkwardness in the workflow, which we hope can be addressed with malone, results from the fact that bug tracking systems have different types of users with different needs11:05
mdzmost obviously the user and the developer11:05
BradBmalone is meant for developers11:05
BradBwe leave user-handling to issue trackers11:06
elmouh11:06
elmosay what?11:06
mdzBradB: a key interface point where users do need to interact with the bug tracking system is finding a bug11:06
mdzand interacting with the developer in collecting information, debugging, etc.11:08
mdzI could see building an issue tracker to handle the latter case11:08
BradBer, in this situation though, "users" are really "developers"...malone is meant to deal with "developers" (or people who are otherwise involved in open source, and have a really good idea of what they're doing) and "maintainers" (people who fix and improve things, based on what the former group is reporting.)11:08
elmomalone is going to need to deal with users - period11:09
BradBelmo: with suzy secretary, nope it doesn't.11:09
elmowhat the hell is suzy secretary?11:09
mdzAKA "Jeff's Mum"11:09
elmobradb: hell yes it does11:10
BradBelmo: dude, trust me, it doesn't.11:10
elmoif you want it to be of any use to a distro team11:10
kiko_bzBradB, what version of the code are you running?11:10
mdzBradB: it is a fact of life that in many cases, the person on the other end of a bug report isn't a developer-type11:10
BradBi'm just relaying sabdfl's objectives, but if you think it should also be an issue tracker, you can ask him about that11:10
elmoBradB: dude, don't go all Arch developer on us11:10
mdzhe and I have discussed it, and I support the idea of a separate issue tracker11:11
BradBelmo: ^ :)11:11
mdzbut that's a separate issue from users interfacing with malone11:11
elmoBradB: you have the distro team leader telling you he needs something: "no, you don't" is a good Tom Lord answer, not so good for Launchpad11:11
mdzBradB: here's a real-world scenario that happens all the time.  A user has a hardware-related bug, which is only reproducible on their system or a similar one11:11
BradBmdz: ok, what are you seeing malone needs to have to be able to be used by the warthogs?11:11
mdzBradB: we need to connect that user with the kernel maintainer and do some back-and-forth to isolate the bug11:12
BradBelmo: or, to put it more accurately, i'm just relaying the stated goals of launchpad, as per mark's specification11:12
BradBmdz: yeah, malone is meant for those people, i think11:12
mdzBradB: then another user comes along and has the same problem11:13
mdzBradB: they need to get into the mix, see if their bug really is the same, and participate in testing fixes, etc.11:13
BradBmdz: sure11:13
mdzan issue tracker provides a nice mapping from user problems to bugs11:13
kiko_bzBradB, elmo and mdz are right, though. a bugtracker should be usable by end-users, because that's a large part of the fun of participating in OSS (people pay attention to you)11:13
mdzbut once they follow that link, they will be part of the bug life cycle11:14
kiko_bzit also provides a structured way of storing this information, which is essential to making heads or tails of it later.11:14
mdzanyway, this is getting a bit handwavy11:14
BradBkiko_bz: i think the main point here is the confusion about what the term "end-user" really means in this context.11:14
mdzlet's focus on the system itself and how we will use it11:14
mdzBradB: so I have a bug which is assigned to malone, but that's wrong, and it needs to be assigned to Ubuntu instead. how do I change that?11:15
BradBin the edit screen11:15
mdzbut it isn't there yet?11:16
BradByeah, just click on the assignment11:16
mdzthat lets me change status, priority, severity, binarypackage and assignee11:16
mdzbut not the source package11:16
BradBoh, i might have been thinking of infestations allowing that to be changed then. that's a bug (it was on our todo, but not to-done yet, apparently)11:17
mdzok11:17
mdzone thing I find confusing is that when I click on most of the fields in the assignment list, I get an interface which lets me change the value I clicked on11:17
mdzbut if I click the source package, I instead get a report of bugs on it11:18
BradBit's a bit of UI weirdness11:18
BradBor goodness, depending on your point of view11:19
BradBmdz: can i clarify one thing about "users" of malone?11:19
mdzsure11:19
BradBjust to give some context to further discussion:11:19
BradBso to be clear, there are three kinds of users that might use an ubuntu system (or any linux distro):11:20
BradB1. the kind that say "where's the any key?"11:20
BradB2. the kind that say "hey brad, we love plone and we're really keen to start using it!" or perhaps "i hack on core python in my spare time"...e.g. the people who are really part of the OS movement and making the software better.11:21
BradB3. the people fixing the bugs reported by 1 and 2 (who might also be in group 2)11:21
BradBmalone is for 2 and 3, issue trackers are for 111:21
BradBthat's the impression i got from discussing with mark.11:21
mdzmy point earlier was that we cannot expect to completely isolate class-1 users from malone11:21
mdzbecause of the issues inherent in difficult-to-reproduce bugs11:22
BradBmdz: ok, you might want to have a word with mark to clarify that, because my understanding is that they're in no way catered to in malone.11:22
mdzBradB: I think he and I were on the same page the last time we spoke about it, but I'll raise it again to be sure11:22
BradBmdz: ok, what other things do you see in the UI that would prevent warthogs from using it?11:24
mdzBradB: tell me about the notifications11:25
BradByou'll get a notification for adding:11:25
BradBinfestations11:25
mdzbased on how I described our Bugzilla approach earlier, how would that map to malone notifications?11:25
BradBhm, /me thinks11:26
BradBlet's put it this way (so you can subtract malone from bugzilla and see where the different is workflow-wise)11:26
BradBpeople can be Cc'd on a bug. anybody that's a user can be.11:27
BradBpeople who are Cc'd on a bug get notifications when any of the following things are added to that bug:11:27
BradBinfestations11:27
BradBassignments11:27
BradBext refs11:27
BradBwatches11:27
BradBcomments11:27
mdzhow do I get notified of new bugs?11:27
BradBmdz: they're no support for that yet11:27
mdzok, that should be on the critical list11:28
BradBindeed11:28
BradBthere's a problem at the UI level with that though11:28
mdzoh?11:28
BradBmalone needs someway of saying "this person should get notified when any bugs of this kind are submitted", but there's no UI whatsoever for that, i don't think11:29
BradBand, perhaps a distro-global notification11:29
mdzat the level of bug traffic we have now, a global notification is fine11:29
mdzall new bugs -> here11:29
BradBah, yeah, ok, i think i remember talking with mark about a quick way to hack that in11:29
BradBit's easy enough to do11:30
mdzit's a hack in bugzilla, too11:30
mdzbut it's what makes the whole thing livable for us at this point11:30
mdzevery new bug and every comment go to the mailing list11:30
mdzthis is core to working on bugs as a team, rather than as an individual11:31
kiko_bzagreed on that.11:31
BradBthat was what i was going to mention next too...current notifications are a bit too simplistic in malone. they don't email assignees, for example.11:31
BradBglobal notifications are noted, i can do that in the next day or two11:32
mdzwhen warty-bugs starts to get close to the amount of traffic on debian-bugs-dist, we'll need fancy filters to say which bugs should go to which teams11:32
mdzbut for now, we're essentially working as one team11:32
mdzBradB: if we get that, all other shortcomings of notifications can be forgiven at this stage11:32
BradBok11:33
mdzBradB: I assume that adding new bug states is fairly trivial11:33
mdzwe need several of those11:33
BradByes11:33
mdzwith an associated sort order11:33
BradBer, actually i don't think bugs have a state at the moment11:34
mdzwell, there's an attribute labeled 'state' in the UI11:35
mdzwhatever that is, we need more of them :-)11:35
BradBmdz: there's "Bug Status" in the assignments.11:35
BradBi see no state on a bug11:35
mdzUpstream / Package  State  Sev  Pri  Assigned to11:35
BradByeah, that's assignments11:35
mdzah, hmm11:36
BradBthose are easy enough to change, but i guess we also have to think about a state for a bug...or maybe not11:36
mdzwell, the common case is one assignment per bug, so that's workable11:36
mdzbut e.g., the NEEDINFO state is generally global11:36
mdzfor a bug11:36
mdzthis is minor stuff, though11:36
mdzif anything, it's somewhat more flexibility than we need11:36
BradBmdz: need info is only relevant to the person who doesn't think they have enough info to go on :)11:37
BradBbut in any case, something for down the road...i can add those easily to the assignments11:37
mdzBradB: in theory, yes, but in almost all real cases, the bug report as a whole is either complete or not11:37
BradBok11:38
mdzthe only missing Bugzilla feature that we actually use is the target milestone11:39
mdzwhich is actually a bad hack for what we really need11:39
mdzwhich is proper version tracking for workflow11:39
mdz"this needs to be fixed in Hoary" versus "this needs to be fixed in Hoary AND backported to Warty"11:39
BradBmdz: how would you expect that to be represented in the UI?11:40
mdzBradB: good question11:40
mdzit's a bit of a hybrid of an infestation and an assignment11:41
BradBMaybe target version: and backport to: or something11:41
BradBthe latter being a list11:41
mdzone approach would be to allow an assignment to refer to a source package release11:41
mdzas well as a source package or a product11:41
mdzer11:42
mdza dist release, I suppose11:42
mdzno, that's really awful, isn't it11:42
mdzideally, the state of the bug in each distrelease would be implicit based on the presence of fixed/affected versions11:42
mdzbut then there's a bit of policy which says "needs to be fixed with a new version to supersede this version", as distinct from "exists in this version"11:43
mdzso let's say a bug is reported against foo version 1.1-1 in Hoary11:44
mdzthen we come along and confirm that the bug is also present back in 1.0-2 in Warty11:44
BradBtwo infestations11:44
mdzright11:44
mdzwhich could be used to build a simple little table of releases11:45
mdzwhich says hoary: affected, warty: affected11:45
BradBah yes, of course, that makes sense11:45
mdzgiven that, a checkbox next to each one could be used to communicate that it needs a fix there11:45
mdzI did a mockup which sort of expressed this11:45
mdzI think I've lost it, though11:45
BradBmdz: a checkbox? hm.11:46
mdzso if a bug is marked as needing-to-be-fixed in Warty, and then a new infestation is added which shows that the bug is fixed in version X, and version X is now the current version for Warty, then it no longer needs-to-be-fixed in Warty11:46
mdzand the release status table would show it fixed11:47
mdzthis relies on all kinds of soyuz data, etc. though11:47
BradBmdz: the intent is that malone does this all automatically...i hope.11:47
mdzBradB: I think we can get by OK for now with just infestations11:48
mdzfor the common case, it should be clear from the display, I think11:48
BradBok11:48
mdzso given the notifications we discussed, and if we can manage to fake the milestone feature using infestations, I think we should be in reasonable shape11:50
BradBcool11:50
mdzBradB: can we expect to have live data on source packages and releases?11:50
mdzimported from the package archive?11:51
BradBkiko_bz: ?11:51
BradBmdz: i've been hoping for it all day. :)11:51
BradBcprov and Kinnison might have a response for that too (but Kinnison's not around atm)11:51
kiko_bzyes?11:52
BradBkiko_bz: when can we expect to have live data imported on source packages and releases?11:53
kiko_bzmdz, that's done by Gina, and that's being done as we speak. We'll likely have a database up tomorrow that you can browse11:53
BradBsweet11:53
mdzkiko_bz: great!11:53
kiko_bzthe database is actually quite massive but it looks very interesting11:53
kiko_bzwe are getting it to run in incremental mode, so we track the history11:54
mdzthe issue will be that we can't create an infestation until the version is known11:54
BradBmdz: what are your plans for when you realistically want warthogs to start using this, and how do you plan to have them start (e.g. a few at a time, or all at once?)11:54
mdzI expect that a very common operation will be to upload a package, and then go to Malone and mark it fixed in that version11:54
mdzbut that version won't exist immediately11:55
mdzBradB: how feasible is it to import the existing Bugzilla data?11:55
BradBmdz: there's no way of doing that that i'm aware of. kiko_bz?11:55
mdzit isn't really feasible for us to use both systems at once11:56
BradBmdz: here's the problem with testing:11:56
kiko_bzthere is no *current* way, but we could get an importer going11:56
BradB1. malone isn't a very good test for it11:56
BradB2. we need a few people giving this a *good* *test* (stability and real-world usability-wise) without having everyone at once using it.11:57
BradBso, ideally, we'd get a couple of maintainers using it for a couple weeks11:57
BradBa couple, a few, several, whatever :)11:57
mdztthe problem with a couple of people using it is that they need actual bug data in it to test11:58
mdzand if that doesn't come from bugzilla, that means pointing users to malone11:58
BradBhm, rolling it out all in one shot is a big risk11:59
BradBi can see why it's difficult to have just a few people testing it though. hmmm.11:59
