ajmitchI'm working on 2 boxes, so some files might have got out of sync01:01
kentbtw, very few updates in the update-notifyer in Hoary seem to have changelogs to look at. Perhaps it takes to much time to write them for the developers? or is the notifyer just not getting them, since.. i guess changelogs are being written, it would be kind of bad if they were'nt, or?01:02
makomdz, et all: is there a download location for the cd?01:02

mdzcasper.manifest and initrd.list are only inside the iso at present01:38

pittijdub: a friend of mine told me that some guy wrote a kioslave plugin for fuse10:25
jdubyeah10:25
pittijdub: imagine: gnome-vfs gets a fuse backend10:25
jdubsomeone's already written one :)10:25

fabbionejdub: can you try to boot with people.u.c/~fabbione/mini.iso ?10:50
fabbionejdub: it should fix the initrd problem10:50

Kamionfabbione: sure; I'd prefer to handle it via ${RAMDISK_SIZE} though, I'll do that10:55
Kamionfabbione: only matters for the mini.iso as far as I can tell? we'd need to check debian-cd as well10:56
fabbioneKamion: yes. so do i, but it is not done upstream either10:56
fabbioneKamion: yes.. that was one of the next questions..10:56
KamionI'd change it upstream except I can't test it10:56
fabbionemdz asked (kinda kidding) for sparc images...10:57
fabbioneKamion: i am not sure about all the logic behind it and looking at the other .cfg i got a bit scared..10:57
fabbionebut i know that right now we cannot provide images yet (due to pyopengl FTBFS)10:57

fabbioneKamion: remember when i was talking about the "Continue without bootloader"?10:58
fabbionei found why, but i need a hint for the fix...10:58
fabbionebasically silo doesn't get installed10:58
fabbionewhat package do i need to look at?=10:59
Kamionno, it's because silo-installer isn't installed10:59
Kamionor not configured successfully or whatever11:00
Kamionif you don't see any errors before "Continue without bootloader", it's simply that silo-installer isn't installed11:00
fabbioneafter i install silo in /target the option "Install bootloader" is there11:00
Kamionoh, THAT'S why I said silo-installer was brain-dead11:01
Kamionit doesn't apt-install silo11:01
KamionI'll fix that, I know how11:01
fabbioneKamion: ok that would rock!11:01
fabbionethanks11:01
Kamionbut if I forget please try to remember the word "apt-install" :)11:01
fabbioneahah ok.. i can just check myself if you are too busy.. don't worry11:02
Kamionfabbione: could you try this in place of the line in config/sparc/miniiso.cfg that installs silo.conf into $(TEMP_CD_TREE)/boot?11:03
Kamion        ./ramdisk-size-subst $(BASE_TMP)miniiso/initrd.gz < boot/sparc/silo.conf > $(TEMP_CD_TREE)/boot/silo.conf11:03
Kamion        chmod 644 $(TEMP_CD_TREE)/boot/silo.conf11:03
Kamionoh, and put ${RAMDISK_SIZE} in the right places in silo.conf11:03
fabbionesure....11:03
fabbioneKamion: would that be enough to apply the changes to tftpboot too i guess11:06
Kamiontftpboot.sh doesn't look like it depends on the initrd size at all11:08
fabbioneeh it does...11:08
fabbionesomehow...11:09
fabbionei did test the netboot with and without the silo changes11:09
fabbioneand i got the expected results11:09
Kamionok, it's not at all obvious how though11:10
Kamionthe string 'silo' isn't mentioned anywhere other than miniiso.cfg11:10
fabbioneyeah.. i am building now..11:11
fabbioneKamion: next.. i have a design issue...11:12
fabbionebasically choose-mirror with DEBCONF_PRIORITY=high11:12
fabbionedoesn't ask for the mirror11:12
Kamionwe fucked that up11:12
fabbionethat means that it will loop with errors11:12
Kamionwe should just revert most of that to Debian IMHO11:12
fabbionewell that was sabdfl demand not to ask for the mirror11:13
Kamionin other words it *should* ask for a mirror, so everyone doesn't have to come to archive.ubuntu.com11:13
Kamionwe have to persuade him otherwise; it's not sane as it is11:13
fabbioneKamion: and be able to use unofficial repos11:13
Kamionindeed11:13
fabbionebecause i was thinking about 2 possible solutions to keep Mark happy11:14
Kamionmind you, when sabdfl asked that IIRC archive.ubuntu.com wasn't in the list and you had to enter it manually11:14
fabbionewe can:11:15
danielsmdz: ping11:15
fabbionea) build the list of mirrors and have a check for official/unofficial arches11:15
fabbioneb) introduce somekind of boot option (DI_UNOFFICIAL)11:15
fabbionethe latter will force to ask for the mirror11:15
fabbionesince the arch might not be in the official repos11:16
Kamionthe mirror question is valuable - essential even! - for official architectures too11:16
Kamionthe way it is at the moment, I waste huge amounts of bandwidth every time I test netboot11:16
danielsKamion: you know the solution to that, right11:16
Kamiondaniels: I suppose I could move to Australia and have no bandwidth at all11:17
fabbioneKamion: i agree.. do you want me to revert the choose-mirror changes?11:17
Kamionfabbione: how about I talk to Mark?11:17
danielsiptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -m mac --mac <whatever> -d archive.ubuntu.com -J DNAT --to-dest local.mirror11:17
Kamiondaniels: bit crap when I actually *want* to check what's on archive.ubuntu.com :P11:17
fabbioneKamion: sure.11:17
Kamiontho' cool hack11:17
danielsKamion: well, just enable it for that machine when you netboot11:18
=== jdub smacks Kamion
Kamionso wrong, so wrong11:18
Kamionthe unofficial arch thing might be useful for defaults, but really there isn't a single sane default for the mirror on netboot installs11:19
Kamionwe can get away with not asking on CD installs because CD installs don't require installing anything from the network, and after the install has completed you can change the mirror in synaptic11:19
Kamionbut a 500MB download for every box you netboot is just totally so far beyond acceptable it isn't funny11:20
fabbioneKamion: you can also use DNS zone views11:20
fabbionewhere the same zone resolvs differently given who is asking11:21
fabbioneand point archive to the local mirror only from a certain ip11:21
fabbioneand to the real one if using another ip11:21
fabbionethat's more fun than using NAT ;)11:21
Mithrandircan't it be set as a boot parameter?11:24
haggaiwhat do I do with a bug that is effectively an ITP that has been assigned to my package?11:25
haggaiuh, RFP11:25
KamionMithrandir: yes, but that only makes sense for stuff only some people need to set; for netboot I think most people want to pick a local mirror11:27
Kamionand therefore it should be asked11:27
=== thom yawns
thomare livecds ready to be torrented?11:28
MithrandirKamion: a hack is to set a parameter which tells choose-mirror what priority the mirror question should be asked at, and having that set by the build scripts depending on netboot or not.11:28
Kamionthom: oh, I need to create the metafiles, one sec11:28
KamionMithrandir: choose-mirror isn't used in CD installs at all11:29
fabbioneKamion: that change seems to work.. let me rediff :-)11:29
Kamionso it doesn't matter ... every image containing choose-mirror wants to ask the question11:29
MithrandirKamion: ok, so the priority of the question in choose-mirror should just be bumped, then?11:29
fabbionethat would be enough11:29
Kamionright, but it was lowered because sabdfl told us to lower it11:30
fabbionewith default to a.u.c11:30
sjoerdpitti: pong11:30
MithrandirKamion: then we should whack sabdfl until he agrees it should be raised. :)11:30
Kamionright11:30
pittisjoerd: I upgraded to hal 0.4.7 an hour ago. afterwards I started h-d-m and suddenly my system had a permanent cpu usage of 100%11:32
Kamionthom: .torrents should be on mirrors or syncing to them now11:32
pittisjoerd: however, this remained even after killing hald, and after reboot everything was alright again11:33
pittisjoerd: did this ever happen to you?11:33
sjoerdnope, never seen that behaviour11:33
pittisjoerd: hmm, I try that upgrade again, if it works, then the error was something else11:34
pittithanks11:34
danielsthom: counsel?11:34
fabbioneKamion: http://people.ubuntulinux.org/~fabbione/d-i-silo.diff11:35
thomdaniels: eh?11:35
fabbioneKamion: your change works fine and the other bit to change in silo.conf11:35
danielsthom: as in, can I borrow your11:35
Kamionfabbione: ok, got it11:35
fabbioneKamion: cool thanks11:35
thomdaniels: certainly. sup?11:35
Kamionfabbione: the chmod should be in there though, otherwise it's umask-dependent11:35
Kamionanyway, in my tree11:35
danielsthom: php4-imap is a separate source package in universe, and declares a dependency on php4-common (= ${Source-Version})11:36
danielsthom: do I a) loosen it, or b) take the hit and ensure it's never out of sync, although that falls apart at the first security update to Hoary since php4-imap won't get updated when php4-common does?11:36
thomdaniels: do as python modules do, depend on the exact upstream version11:37
thomthat shouldn't be too onerous or break too hard11:37
jdubthom: so i uploaded gmime built against mono11:37
danielscoo11:37
danielscheers11:37
jdubthom: which means we have everything we need for beagle11:37
jdubthom: but there are optional things that i wouldn't really regard as optional...11:38

jdubperhaps put a reference to beagle in the copyright or something11:41
thomyeah11:41
jduball the source is there, so it's reasonable11:41
jdubthom: hrm, actually, why don't we ship it in beagle as a system-installed xpi?11:42
jdubthom: does it have to be registered or something?11:42
fabbioneKamion: ok.. do you want me to check adding the chmod ?11:43
Kamionno need11:43

elmoI asked about this last night and got a big "\/\/hatever" type resonse02:16
Kamion"disable building against internal mozilla"02:16
Kamionthe idea of having an internal mozilla is just too scary02:17
elmoit's right in the sense that it's an unmodified automated sync from Debian; it's only choice of packages to sync that isn't02:17
Kamionah right02:17
elmoI dunno, better name suggestions are welcome02:17
elmoin any event groff was clearly a bad test package, as the .dsc is already signed by a ubunut.. meh.. now I don't know whether to replace the .dsc signature with the automatic one, or to keep it and modify jennifer to not check the .dsc signature for imported packages02:18
Kamionseems better to have a valid .dsc I'd've thought, since it ends up in the archive02:19
elmohow do you mean valid?02:19
=== eruin [~eruin@eruin.user] has joined #ubuntu-devel
Kamionverifiable signature02:20
elmowell it is.. just with the Debian keyring ;)02:20
Kamionoh, I thought you were adding fields to the .dsc, like you do with the .changes02:20
elmothat's option 3/c/iii/whatever of course, is modify jennifer to validate the signature against the union of debian and ubuntu keyrings02:20
Kamionthat's kind of semantically correct, given that our source is the union of what Debian and Ubuntu do02:21
elmoKamion: I generate the .changes - there's no where public to pull them from (or they don't exist for !Debian) - everything else is unmodified02:21
Kamionof course I suppose you could argue that we sign everything that we pull from Debian to confirm that we meant to pull it02:22
fabbioneKamion: i think we are almost there... :-) 2 things left to get a 100% success installation02:26
fabbioneKamion: something is not handling inittab properly.. debian does.. and one package missing from main :P02:27
fabbionebut i will dig in them tomorrow.. i am getting too much headacke today02:27
fabbionethanks for the help :)02:27
elmooh, meh, I'll have to sign it if it's one of the fun unsigned repo's we pull from02:28
Kamionfabbione: prebaseconfig.d/90prepare-base-config is the place to start investigating the inittab problem, probably02:28
Kamiondon't see anything particularly Debian-specific in there though02:28
fabbioneKamion: what happens i think is between base-config and login02:29
fabbionethere is a temporary inittab to run base-config02:29
fabbionethat gets replaced by a inittab.real02:29
fabbionein debian the inittab.real is correct, the one on ubuntu no02:29
fabbionethis is a very specific case for the fact that i am headless and sparc wants a console on ttyS002:29
Kamionhave you got a current base-config?02:30
fabbionewhile from Ubuntu i get tty1 = console freeze02:30
fabbioneKamion: the one that's in the archive...02:30

carlospitti: you are not naming the .pot file as it's named the .mo files04:06

carlospitti: the .pot file is called template.pot04:07

carlosbut when installed the .mo, it's called pmount.mo04:07
carlospitti: yes, please04:07

carlosbut it's an extra problem I should handle because I cannot fix all packages (I'm sure some of them have that problem) :-(04:08

pitticarlos: find -name "*.po" -o -name "*.pot" | tar cT - | gzip -9 > ../$tarball04:44
pitticarlos: the problem is, I cannot just put a file "domains.txt" into the source package04:45

sivangKamion: and it uses the gtk db lib?05:34
sivangs/db/fb05:34
Kamionno05:35
Kamionthe graphical bit is something that you run on an ordinary system to generate a kickstart file05:35
Kamionthe kickstart file is then parsed noninteractively by the installer05:35
sivangah right ! oops05:35
sivangyes, for mass intalls05:35
Kamionindeed; although it's nothing that you can't do with preseeding either05:36
Kamionit's purely a compatibility thing05:36
sivangKamion: right, preseeding allows you to create boiletplate system snpashot and apply them non interactively almos the same way?05:36
Kamionyeah05:37
sivangKamion: so this step it a mere "let's make it easy for admin that already used Kickstart on their redhat/fedora system" ?05:37
Kamionright, or admins who already have heterogeneous RH/Fedora/SuSE/blah setups05:37
Kamionand preseeding doesn't have any pointy-clicky frontend at the moment, so this will provide that05:38
Kamionassuming I can get it done before feature freeze, at least05:38
sivangKamion: I'd appriciate when you have time to toss me the link to read about preseeding the installer, I'd like that for the livecd and the loco version.05:38

Kamionsivang: link to http://d-i.alioth.debian.org/manual/en.i386/ch04s07.html05:39
sivangok :)05:39
Kamionunless you feel up to modifying the initrd, the language/location question can only be preseeded on the kernel command line (or by bootloader configuration)05:40
Kamionin hoary, adding 'preseed/locale=he_IL' or similar to the append lines in bootloader configuration should be sufficient05:40
Kamionpossibly it's preseed/locale=he_IL.UTF-8, localechooser is complicated, try both05:40

mdzKamion: jdub suggested a while ago that we allow sudo based on group membership, rather than username06:47

tritium"The system is going down NOW !!this console" is kind of alarming to see after "Preparing for live session"06:53

mdzsladen: where I need to suppress the "System is going down NOW" what not07:46
=== ogra wonders if lamont sees a bouncing steak there....
sladenlamont: see man chattr:   When a file with the s attribute set is deleted, its blocks are zeroed and written back to the disk.07:47
sladenlamont: is that a stop-gap you could use07:47
makomdz: sent!07:47
sladenmdz: don't think I've dealt with that particular one.  console=tty should take care of it, let me test07:48

lamontseems to be exactly what the doctor ordered.07:51
mdzlamont: they do different things07:51
lamontok.07:52
mdzthe chattr won't ensure that _all_ empty blocks are zeroed07:52
lamontchattr probably doesn't deal with the inode07:52
mdzit also won't deal with files created during the build process07:52
lamontah, yes07:52
Treenaksmako: next stop: secretary of peace07:52

lamontfiles that are created and removed during the build process are not on the image07:52
makoTreenaks: make love not war07:53
mdzlamont: rsync --inplace won't delete the file, though07:53
mdzand slack won't be zeroed (will it?)07:53
sladenit'll likely not deal with freed-up inodes.  But I suspect the number of those may well be small enough not to worry for the moment07:53

lamontT-Bone: wonder if maybe the issue is the modprobe efivars?08:50
=== T-Bone is currently waiting for ubuntu-desktop installation to complete

T-BoneKamion: as in zombies, "D" state, whatsoever09:16

Kamionzombies != D state by quite a wide margin09:17
T-BoneKamion: yeah, the kernel sucks a lot09:17
mdzit can't do things like parse from a Python file object09:17

smurfixabelli: there was a paragraph in english though. ;-)11:08
abellithe first line?!? =)11:08
mdzlamont: hwclock still doesn't know how to access the hardware clock on amd64, apparently11:11
mdzlamont: is there a patch out there for that?11:11
amumdz: build a new warty, extracted it, and checked eveything, TZ is untouched, localtime -> /usr/share/zoneinfo/UTC  11:22
lifelesserm, has something been removed from evolution ? updated just now to latest hoary, and my ssh-tunnel options and functionality have gone byebye11:26

ogra * Setting the System Clock using the Hardware Clock as reference...     [ ok ] 11:32
ograhmm, no error i its not during bootup....11:33
ogras/i/if/11:33
sladenogra: I think it opens /dev/rtc, does that exist at that point11:33
sladenmdz: is this live/amd64 or all amd6411:33
ograsladen: good point.... maybe a udev/ordering issue11:33
ograall11:34
ograit happens on every boot here11:34
sladenmdz/ogra: I can believe that udev doesn't bother since, it's not as though it can find it on the PCI bus :)11:34
amuogra: you still online with a liveCD ? 11:37
ograamu: i never was... no pcmcia, no net :/11:37
amusomebody else, i need to know which version of update-notifier is installed11:39
=== ogra tries something out...
mdzsladen: this happened to be live/amd6411:45
mdzsladen: yes, it goes through the kernel, but there are several ways to do that; it differs from one architecture to the next11:45
mdzI would expect that on a modern port like amd64 it would use /dev/rtc11:46
mdzamu: /casper/filesystem.manifest11:46
mdzamu: has a list of versions of all packages11:46
mdzlamont: does the daily d-i build happen in time for the daily live CD build?11:48
amumdz: thx11:58
amumdz: #5942, guess he has not enough ram? 11:59
