[12:42] doesn't affect current powerpc [12:43] do you want a list? [12:43] easy to fix when I know what's wrong ... :) [12:43] I'd rather have a copy of /var/log/syslog [12:43] yeah - easier said that done, yes?

[12:43] #4940, BTW === lamont goes to bludgeon [12:44] ta [12:46] yeah, there's nc, but no network cards yet. :-( [12:47] time to take advantage of /dev/ttyS0 [12:51] Kamion: http://people.ubuntu.com/~lamont/ia64.syslog [12:52] ( sh < /dev/ttyS0 > /dev/ttyS0 2>&1 is a powerful command... :-) [12:52] Dec 23 16:37:50 main-menu[2068] : (process:5514): Segmentation fault [12:52] whoa? [12:52] hrm. [12:53] command line? and I'll go run it with strace or something. [12:53] strace _is_ on the cd, yes? [12:54] yeah, but probably won't work until libc6-udeb is installed [12:54] udpkg -i that, then fish out strace. you don't get a command line, you'll have to find the main-menu process and strace -p it === lamont ponders how complex it would be to give Kamion a login with serial console :-) [12:55] anyway, back on momentarily === lamont__ [~lamont@mix.mmjgroup.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel [01:06] lamont: hm ... you want to strace -f actually, sorry [01:06] it's a child of main-menu that's segfaulting [01:12] yeah [01:12] figured that out. [01:12] and I need to do things in the background at least a little, since there's no job control. [01:13] definitely anna segfaulting, but why ... [01:14] all that code is identical to Debian [01:15] stracing shell scripts is _BORING_. [01:16] yeah :) [01:19] fwiw, there's a really nice tombstone that comes up for hundreds of milliseconds before getting cleared. [01:19] otoh, serial console might make that not so bad... === lamont__ boots agagin [01:19] at least, I hope it does.... [01:20] yep. [01:20] serial here we come [01:20] beginning to think strace won't help much though, might be more a gdb job [01:20] which would mean rebuilding anna with debug symbols ... [01:21] I should have the tombstone shortly, at least [01:21] just have to remember to boot serial console, rather than vga.. :-( [01:22] Kamion: btw, 12-22 daily ppc installed just fine, thank you. [01:22] well, except for X not liking the display at all. [01:22] WTH is daniels when I need to beat him, huh? [01:23] tombstone? [01:25] from the segv [01:25] traceback [01:27] there must be some weird udeb involved here or something; the code runs fine on amd64, and on alpha/ia64 in Debian, so I don't think there are inherent 64-bit issues [01:29] p.u.c/~lamont/boot.out [01:29] firecall - should be back in about 30-40 min, I guess. [01:30] how do I decode that? [01:30] assuming that the call trace is outermost-last, the last thing is a syscall entry ... [01:32] lamont__: he's on holidays [01:32] there are some unlink() calls in install_modules(), mind you [01:35] lamont__: strace might actually be useful; it would allow me to see whether there's any debconf interaction following the last log entry === rcouto [~rcouto@c9062ee8.virtua.com.br] has joined #ubuntu-devel === rcouto [~rcouto@c9062ee8.virtua.com.br] has left #ubuntu-devel ["Leaving"] [01:56] back [01:56] daniels: X doesn't start on my ppc box.

[02:11] daniels: you know, we should probably change the Maintainer: of l-r-m ... [02:11] lamont__: calling udpkg presumably? [02:12] yeah - but really slow because of the strace at 9600 baud :-( [02:13] [pid 5753] execve("/usr/bin/udpkg", ["udpkg", "--print-architecture"] , [/* 17 vars */] ) = 0 [02:13] working through that one [02:13] wouldn't it be better to strace -o /tmp/whatever and then nc that somewhere? [02:14] no network [02:14] we have to finish loading the installer modules before we load the network modules... :-( [02:15] unless you want to tell me how to get a network that early? [02:15] then we just have the small issue that I'm using that network cable... [02:16] ah, well it's possible with creative use of udpkg but it might perturb the problem [02:16] yeah [02:17] it doesn't help that I straced a bunch of stuff I didn't need to.. :-( [02:17] just grep'ed for Componens in hoary/release [02:18] [pid 5817] execve("/usr/bin/logger", ["logger", "-t", "cdrom-retriever", "warning: Unable to find restrict"...] , [/* 17 vars */] ) = 0 [02:18] wonder if that matters... [02:19] that happens everywhere, will be fixing it soon [02:19] you didn't strace -s ? [02:23] what's -s do? [02:24] ia64.strace2 [02:25] (and ia64.strace, but that's the boring leadin) [02:25] 81% there [02:25] ' [02:26] grumble. crap connectivity [02:26] there now [02:27] pid 5514 is the child with issues, per syslog [02:28] and that's not in the strace output at all. [02:28] there's no segv in that trace [02:28] which could just mean that it ran fast enough to not get grabbed before it failed. [02:28] I think 5514 is just a shell that calls anna [02:28] child processes run free until the parent gets the pid back. [02:28] so, where's the crash? [02:29] not in the trace [02:29] it happened at 18:03:41, if there are any times in the strace... [02:31] do you want one with -s large? [02:32] although I doubt it'll tell you anything [02:32] what did you strace? [02:33] hm, main-menu from the looks of it [02:33] would you like me to set up serial console access for you? (with a spare serial port).. [02:33] strace -f -p [02:33] it looks like the strace is truncated [02:33] stops at: [02:33] [pid 5818] --- [02:34] eventually I killed it. [02:34] oh, ok [02:34] serial access would be good if possible, yeah [02:34] but we were already dead by then. [02:34] then I can trace to a file and look at the end of it [02:34] yeah - is work. gimme a bit. [02:35] you want it tonight, or just ready for you by morning?

[03:41] Kamion: they were lost during the merge which brought the 0.6 branch up to date [03:41] the history is still there in arch [03:41] I hope they'll be restored [03:41] most of it isn't particularly relevant in the mainline changelog [03:42] and it's not entirely clear to me where in the changelog they should go [03:42] perhaps a separate file would be OK === Kamion just always puts stuff in versioned order, people seem to cope [03:42] you mentioned that you had some ideas for branch representation in changelogs [03:43] I brought them up in one of the BOFs at Mataro [03:43] basically: [03:43] {{{ branch to do something [03:43] yes, but we didn't get to seeing an example [03:43] apt (0.6.0) unstable; urgency=low [03:43] ... [03:43] }}} [03:44] the way 0.6 worked, I was merging everything I did in 0.5.x into it for many versions [03:44] so they really were parallel [03:44] some notation around there to be clear about where you branched from, too [03:44] ah [03:44] it's just very confusing to the casual skimmer of debian/changelog at the moment [03:44] anyway :) [03:44] yes, the current changelog ended up slightly weird too [03:45] apt (0.6.26) unstable; urgency=low [03:45] -- Matt Zimmerman Thu, 25 Nov 2004 10:01:16 -0800 [03:45] apt (0.5.32) unstable; urgency=low [03:45] -- Matt Zimmerman Sat, 11 Dec 2004 09:05:52 -0800 [03:45] ugh, mvo left a bunch of arch junk around in the source package [03:45] ack [03:45] I thought I told him about debian/rules arch-build [03:45] I'll send mail [03:46] oh wow, didn't realise apt-key was a shell script [03:46] perhaps I'll rewrite it in python-minimal :-) [03:47] I almost had a heart-attack earlier today when I thought we'd ended up putting the Essential flag on python2.4-minimal [03:47] then I remembered that python-minimal existed too, and relaxed [03:48] but python-minimal isn't essential either, yet [03:49] indeed [03:53] Kamion: having gpg on the install media was always too big an ask, otherwise sure, should be trivial [03:54] Kamion: so rewriting it all in python and going to get rid of perl-base from essential? [03:54] calc: don't expect that any time soon [03:55] aj: I suspect we'll end up doing it, whether Debian do or not [03:55] for the cdrom gpg can go anywhere really, but for netboot it really has to be in the initrd ... [03:55] since you're getting all udebs after that from the network and you need to auth them [03:56] and, of course, the netboot initrd needs to be signed with the archive key or something === Kamion expects elmo will just love doing that on every byhand upload [03:57] calc: basically Mark wants to be able to use python more or less anywhere feasible, and doesn't want that to be stopped by trivial little details like the shape of essential ;) [03:58] cool :) [03:58] calc: that's a bit different from rewriting a big load of code that works [03:58] Kamion: any thought that the kernel could be playing with your head here? [03:58] that is, should I drop said kernel on the sarge install that's there, and see what it does? [03:58] lamont__: well, a segfault is a segfault; it was pretty clear in the original log [03:59] that probably won't work, kernel needs to match module udebs [03:59] yeah - and clearly grabbing some text and using it as a pointer... [03:59] kernel version needs to match module udeb versions, that is [03:59] otherwise anna won't retrieve them [03:59] Kamion: nah - I meant dropping linux-image-2.6.9 on the sarge box [03:59] it already has sarge installed, you see...

I need something to parse perl in python... :-( [03:42] lamont: hmm... libperl wrapped in python [04:00] Treenaks: just trying to find a variable definition in the perl mess for my python code to use... :) [04:01] lamont: it sounds like a great coding project for 2005-04-01 [04:06] Treenaks: I'm just not sure which camp would be more offended: perl or python [04:07] lamont: exactly === lamont finishes converting one buildd of each architecture to the new world order, thinks he now has a script to do it (modulo being scared of automatically modifying /etc/fstab...) === lamont wanders off for a bit [04:15] Hmm, parrot is supposed to be able to do that ... eventually. === Simira [~rpGirl@ti511220a080-1292.bb.online.no] has joined #ubuntu-devel === jinty [~jinty@105.Red-217-126-84.pooles.rima-tde.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel === sid77 [~sid77@ppp-20-175.30-151.libero.it] has joined #ubuntu-devel [05:52] hi [05:52] hey sid === lamont does a mass-give-back on all 4 architectures, just to hammer on things. === _rene__ [~rene@dsl-082-083-172-075.arcor-ip.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel === seb128_ [~seb128@ANancy-151-1-42-7.w83-196.abo.wanadoo.fr] has joined #ubuntu-devel === _rene__ is now known as _rene_ [06:33] lamont: any joy with that serial console access? [06:39] Kamion: been hip deep with other things... give me a couple minutes [06:40] 1245 files missing from my ubuntu mirror (with the addition of ia64). sigh. [06:40] Kamion: I'll go hook it up now. [06:42] anyone: any news on livecd/ppc? [06:52] Kamion: what IP are you coming from? [06:52] lamont: should be 81.153.126.219 [06:55] Kamion: email sent, still arguing with the tty stuff though. === lamont gives it one more pass, but then will have to run some errands [06:58] Kamion: and worst case, I'll wind up moving your login to another machine, which might even have _2_ serial ports to abuse. [06:59] np [07:01] Kamion: boot up sequence is to be in minicom after invoking the willy-switch (inside joke), interrupt the auto boot, choose efi-shell, then say: [07:01] fs0: [07:01] elilo [07:02] if you try now, you should get an fs0> prompt when you hit return. [07:02] (it wants 'elilo' === Kamion is not having much luck connecting [07:02] no network plugged in yet [07:02] ssh to ia timing out? [07:02] oh. yeah. that. [07:03] sec [07:03] hasn't actually timed out yet, but is sitting at connect() [07:03] doh [07:03] ctl-c and do it again [07:03] ah, there it goes [07:03] EBADRULE [07:04] fwiw, that's the house web proxy, etc [07:04] most of your activity from that machine is throttled to about 30kbits, which you're sharing with 2 rsyncs [07:04] port 22 traffic is not shaped. [07:05] what do I do after starting minicom? serial console newbie here ... [07:06] ah, never mind, got it [07:08] not much happening after the initrd loads though ... [07:09] oh, DUH, I selected the VGA option. how do I reboot? [07:09] and do arrow keys work, even if I can't see the result? === ironwolf [~ironwolf@c-24-6-169-124.client.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel === cenerentola [~cenerento@84.222.38.88] has joined #ubuntu-devel === seb128 [~seb128@ANancy-151-1-18-83.w83-194.abo.wanadoo.fr] has joined #ubuntu-devel === usual [~Colin@alb-69-202-45-196.nycap.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel === GotD0t [~GotD0t@24.48.147.43] has joined #ubuntu-devel === maskie [~maskie@196-30-110-82.uudial.uunet.co.za] has joined #ubuntu-devel === usual [~colin@alb-69-202-45-196.nycap.rr.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel === Mitario [~michiel@sikkes.xs4all.nl] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:14] lamont: ping, katie is too fast for me :) i'm upping a package with 5k the size of the orig.tar.gz is 5mb :) [10:14] Rejected: kdesdk_3.3.2-1ubuntu1.dsc refers to kdesdk_3.3.2.orig.tar.gz, but I [10:14] +can't find it in the queue or in the pool. [10:21] that's why you upload the orig.tar.gz, then the diff.gz, then the .dsc, then the .changes [10:21] or use dput [10:22] truthfully, as long as the .changes is last, katie should wait for it. [10:22] amu: you forgot to use -sa [10:22] Kamion: well, that would be the other reason [10:22] :-) [10:23] there's no kdesdk_3.3.2.orig.tar.gz in the pool, and it only gets automatically included in the .changes if the revision part of the version is -0 or -1 [10:23] you should also probably use -0ubuntu1 rather than -1ubuntu1, I suspect [10:23] so that 3.3.2-1 is considered newer [10:24] Kamion: unless he's merging into 3.3.2-1, of course. [10:25] well, there's no 3.3.2-1 in Debian, but I guess it depends [10:27] hehe yep now upping with dput and -sa ;) [10:28] oh my god line is too slow now [10:41] lamont: I am arguing with my dad, please tell me how much time it takes to travel in a car from Miami to Holywood ? [10:41] miami to hollywood... hrm... call it ~3000 miles give or take. [10:42] lamont: also, he has just discovered keyhole :) He thinks they are close like the train station to Mataro :) [10:42] your average sane person would therefore take about 3 days of solid driving (averaging 50 miles per hour, or 1200 miles per day) If you're willing to just make it 'stop for gas', you could drop that to around 2 days [10:42] assuming that you have drivers to switch off. [10:44] if you have family with you, plan on at least a week, or no sex after that. [10:45] lamont: hehe === AndyFit1 [~andy@220-245-97-227-qld-pppoe.tpgi.com.au] has joined #ubuntu-devel === wasabi_ [~wasabi@c-24-1-67-127.client.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:47] I assume there has been discussion about whether or not to officially support Mono in Hoary? Trying to find some conversations. ;) === ogra [~ogra@p508EA57A.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:53] wasabi_: yes, there has [10:53] yes, no, maybe so? [10:53] the consensus, as I recall, was that "mono" was not a first-class thing which should be supported, but that if there were mono applications we should support, they would pull in the mono stuff [10:53] jdub has details [10:53] Hmm. Sucky. =( [10:54] mdz: I thknk that's the best approach [10:54] mdz: this is the state currently right? I do have tomboy running...:) [10:54] wasabi_: pardon? [10:54] hmm? [10:54] wasabi_ : just write a first-class thing which they need... ;-) [10:54] I think that sucks. [10:55] I don't think you're going to get any cool apps written until people stop having to go through hell to install it. ;) [10:55] Especially given the less technical aspect of programming useful C# apps. [10:55] I'm fairly certain there are already useful applications written, and packaged in universe even [10:56] and it's quite likely that we'll decide to support some of them for Hoary [10:56] well that's cool then. [10:56] so your attitude is doubly unnecessary [10:56] wasabi_: what is so good in c# that python don't have? [10:56] im not getting into that. [10:56] sivang: they're quite different [10:57] wasabi_: I would suffice for a link to enlighten me :) [10:57] mdz, sorry then... b ut that's a bit how I feel. I sort of see "java support", or ".net support" as something you could support, for hte good of ISVs [10:57] But then, im not on your side of the fence, and have no idea. ;) [10:57] sivang, what does perl offer over python? === sivang prefer java beans only in coffe :) [10:58] wasabi_: huh? [10:59] it's just as valid of a question as yours was, really. [11:07] how are the java clones doing? [11:10] not too good imo [11:11] no way they can keep up [11:11] yea :\ [11:11] not enough interest being generated. [11:11] mono seems to be doing much better since clr/etc is standardized [11:11] yeah. [11:11] i might say that it seems like the community is more focused. [11:11] I mean, java is very well understood. [11:12] I guess it probably has to do a lot with all the people who really need java on linux, just use sun's vm. [11:12] ms.net ain't gonna run on linux. ;0 [11:13] yea [11:13] I guess im fine with that. I don't mind. [11:13] I wish sun had better redist rights. [11:13] even if it was redistributable couldn't use it for anything in a dist [11:14] very few people actually write linux apps in java. [11:14] since it would still be stuck in non-free as opposed to not even being in there [11:14] they write java apps. [11:14] yeah. Well.. we have enough free stuff to write real dist programs with. [11:14] GCJ is fine, Classpath is Good Enough. [11:14] Java-gnome rounds out the GUI. [11:14] ok [11:15] BUt, the stuff I use it for, it's not adequite for. [11:15] ejb, tomcat, etc. [11:15] i did the mono remoting example yesterday, and almost died. =( [11:15] equivilent of at least 100 lines of java. [11:15] in like, 2. [11:17] sivang, what does perl offer over python? [11:17] wasabi_: its more mature [11:17] ogra, doesn't noticible effect any apps. [11:17] wasabi_: you find it in smaller environments where py doesnt fit [11:17] noticibly [11:18] wasabi_: and i think it currently has the wider list of modules..... [11:18] perl offers obsfucation too :) [11:18] but that will change eventually [11:18] ogra, then why are ubuntu apps prefered in python? (read that sompleace) [11:19] wasabi_: python is great... i dont say perl is better...but has some advantages.... [11:19] as py has :) [11:19] well, you just renforce my C# thing. [11:19] it's good for some things python isn't, but they can all pretty much get the same jobs done [11:20] yep.... you can do it also in C or assembler .... [11:20] im a fan of presenting people with the widest array of tools. Differnet tools for different people. [11:20] And if all those people develop for your platform, you're better than if only a subset did. [11:20] or code it in 1 and 0 if aou are _really_ smart [11:21] oh, another one for perl.... loads of debian is perl based as perl was the traditional script lang for years there [11:22] even this will change slowly in ubuntu i guess === michiel_ [~michiel@sikkes.xs4all.nl] has joined #ubuntu-devel [11:44] mdz: what did we decide on 2113? === lamont files an upgrade bug against udev.
