I have bug-buddy code to talk to xml-rpc. reportbug isn't trivial to modify since it has all the debbugs bits hardcoded (severities, etc.) and I'd recommend replacing it with bugzuki which is mostly ready, just needs to be unhardwired from RH's bugzilla. | 02:05 |
| jbailey | mdz: I wanted to get the SATA bug and the initrd pieces in before tomorrow, though. | 02:05 |

| mdz | jbailey: I'm much less concerned about reportbug than I am about bug-buddy, to be honest | 02:07 |

| daniels | (this is going to be the xkb detection stuff for array 6, so as wide testing as it can get is appreciated.) | 05:12 |
| calc | is it ok to run it under x? | 05:12 |
| daniels | yeah, it won't touch any running configuration | 05:13 |
| daniels | the only debconf stuff it needs to do is find out what the d-i keymap is | 05:13 |
| Burgundavia | hmm | 05:17 |
| Burgundavia | seems to work correctly here | 05:17 |
| lunitik | Burgundavia: way to follow instructions ;) | 05:18 |
| schweeb | daniels: ah, that perl error must have been something from debconf | 05:18 |
| Burgundavia | yes, I just read the last para | 05:18 |
| mdz | daniels: (wrongly) gives me us here, but I don't think I installed this system with the installer | 05:19 |
| daniels | mdz: ah, ok | 05:19 |
| mdz | daniels: does the right thing on my laptop, which was installed by the installer | 05:19 |
| mdz | I'll try on the test boxen as well | 05:20 |
| Burgundavia | daniels: if it matters, my warty--> upgrade box works correctly too | 05:20 |
| daniels | cool | 05:20 |
| jdub | # ./detect-keyboard.sh | 05:20 |
| jdub | failed to infer keyboard layout from layout/lang '--' | 05:20 |
| jdub | layout is us | 05:20 |
| jdub | rules are xorg | 05:20 |
| jdub | model is pc104 | 05:20 |
| jdub | options are | 05:20 |
| jdub | 05:20 | |
| mdz | daniels: yes, yes and yes | 05:21 |
| mdz | (i386, powerpc, amd64) | 05:21 |
| daniels | smurfix: ping | 05:22 |
| mdz | daniels: you might be able to get a wider variety of layouts in #ubuntu | 05:22 |
| daniels | mdz: phat | 05:22 |
| daniels | jdub: don't use sudo su -, you bongmeister | 05:22 |
| crimsun | daniels: works correctly here. | 05:22 |
| jdub | :-) | 05:22 |
| crimsun | (sid->hoary) | 05:22 |
| calc | btw why isn't LANG getting set when you sudo su -? | 05:22 |
| mdz | jdub: did you not install using d-i? | 05:22 |
| mdz | oh, nm | 05:23 |
| jdub | $ sudo ./detect-keyboard.sh | 05:23 |
| jdub | layout is us | 05:23 |
| jdub | rules are xorg | 05:23 |
| jdub | model is pc104 | 05:23 |
| jdub | options are | 05:23 |
| jdub | pants | 05:23 |
| jdub | 05:23 | |
| daniels | calc: su - clears the environment | 05:23 |
| calc | yea it resets it to root's env | 05:24 |
| calc | or something similar | 05:24 |
| calc | hmm so sudo su - isn't causing /etc/pam.d/login to be used otherwise pam_env would cause /etc/environment to be loaded | 05:28 |
| mdz | sudo su - is silly | 05:29 |
| mdz | sudo -i | 05:29 |
| calc | does the same thing no LANG | 05:29 |
| calc | which appears to be due to pam_env not being run? | 05:30 |
| mdz | yeah, looks that way | 05:30 |
| mdz | sudo login -f root :-) | 05:30 |
| calc | heh that works | 05:31 |
| calc | so why doesn't the other methods of getting a login shell actually cause pam.d/login to run, interesting issue | 05:31 |
| mdz | I don't think they start a pam session | 05:31 |
| lunitik | calc: 'sudo su -' results in same as 'su -' ... sudo -i still specifies SUDO_USER and SUDO_UID... | 05:32 |
| calc | lunitik: yea | 05:32 |
| mdz | I wonder why sudo -i doesn't just use login | 05:32 |
| mdz | that's what it's for | 05:32 |
| lunitik | Only diff's I see... heh... I just went through comparing... | 05:32 |
| === thully [~thully@166.155.200.49] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| lunitik | mdz: man sudo -i says it parses shell as specified in /etc/passwd, then /etc/sudoers ... 'login' doesn't ever look at /etc/sudoers... might be related ;) | 05:34 |
| mdz | lunitik: for the "sudo -i" case, the shell will always be the same | 05:38 |
| mdz | not that it's any of sudo's business :-) | 05:39 |
| lunitik | -i The -i (simulate initial login) option runs the shell specified in the passwd(5) entry of the user that the command is being run as. | 05:39 |
| lunitik | So yes :P | 05:39 |
| === lunitik just read it wrong... cuz he's an idiot | ||
| lamont | hrmpf. | 05:49 |
| lamont | no elmo, I assume>? | 05:49 |

| lunitik | Or am I just blind? | 05:50 |
| lunitik | mdz: *cough* | 05:51 |
| lunitik | uhh... Keybuk, sorry | 05:51 |
| lunitik | cept he's not here :( | 05:51 |
| daniels | lunitik: it's not actually an error, just a warning | 05:53 |
| lunitik | daniels: ohhh... could be why there is no option for it... :P | 05:53 |
| calc | --force-all is your friend | 05:53 |
| lunitik | calc: I don't like doing that enless I'm sure :( | 05:54 |
| calc | heh, i was joking btw ;) | 05:54 |
| lunitik | calc: ahh... k :) | 05:54 |
| calc | doing things without understanding why will lead to a broken box | 05:55 |
| === lunitik remembers installing almost every day due to breaking things when he first started playing with Debian... :P | ||
| lunitik | 'playing' was definatly the operative word for it :) | 05:56 |
| calc | thats a good way to learn how to use dselect :) | 05:56 |
| lunitik | calc: gah... you know, I still haven't actually installed anything with dselect or aptitude's ncurses interface... | 05:57 |
| lunitik | *blush* | 05:57 |
| calc | oh you used tasksel with debian? | 05:57 |
| calc | or just a huge number of apt-gets? | 05:58 |
| lunitik | calc: nah... I think the option was "bypass package selection" in b-f, and in d-i 'manually select packages' > q ;) | 05:58 |
| lunitik | calc: the latter... meta-packages are my friends :) | 05:58 |

| AndyFitz | lunitik, if this machine gets compromised there is no loss to me or the current network | 06:04 |
| lunitik | But its a pain in the neck either way :/ | 06:05 |
| calc | i'm sure some people that would get spam from that box would have something to say to you though ;) | 06:05 |
| AndyFitz | this is really sudo anyway i cant login as a normal user without it hanging in 20 seconds | 06:05 |
| AndyFitz | calc, postfix, sendmail etc arent on here | 06:05 |
| AndyFitz | im watching the network monitor either way | 06:05 |
| daniels | AndyFitz: boot with 'noinotify' | 06:07 |
| AndyFitz | really ive got to figure out why .ICEauthority and .Xauthority's perms are always changing and why i get these atomic: gam_server errors | 06:07 |
| lamont | AndyFitz: -23 kernel? | 06:07 |
| daniels | AndyFitz: if you run apps under sudo, root will end up owning ICEauthority and Xauthority | 06:08 |
| daniels | the answer being don't run X apps directly under sudo | 06:08 |
| daniels | gksudo if you must | 06:08 |
| AndyFitz | daniels okay yeah i can appreciate that, so that problem is solved. now why the constant hangs and gam_server errors | 06:09 |
| daniels | AndyFitz: boot with 'noinotify', or get a newer kernel | 06:10 |
| AndyFitz | thanks btw daniels. its logical that thats what is happening. how do i boot with noinotify ? | 06:10 |
| daniels | when you boot, press escape for the grub menu as it flies by in the three-second window; press e to edit the first entry, go down to the kernel line, and press e again | 06:11 |
| daniels | add 'noinotify' to the end of that line, press enter, then hit b | 06:11 |
| AndyFitz | too easy, thanks. and what will noinotify do ? | 06:13 |
| daniels | disable inotify, which is the part of the kernel that lets gamin know when stuff's changed | 06:13 |
| daniels | that's the crashy bit | 06:13 |
| AndyFitz | sweet. okay thanks | 06:14 |
| daniels | np | 06:14 |
| lunitik | daniels: what use is gamin if its not realizing things change? I thought that was the whole point of it? *blush* | 06:15 |
| daniels | lunitik: sure, but right now there are kernel bugs that make it unusable because your system just locks up | 06:15 |
| lunitik | daniels: ohh... yeah, that would be bad | 06:16 |
| === lunitik shuts up | ||
| jdub | gamin falls back to dnotify anyway | 06:16 |
| lamont | hoary will ship with inotify disabled by default | 06:17 |
| lamont | although we'll try to have it work right when you force it on | 06:17 |
| tseng | rml says .20 is due out any time now | 06:17 |
| lamont | once hoary ships, we'll turn it back on if it's semi-sane | 06:17 |
| tseng | with more fixing | 06:17 |
| tseng | zul and I are testing a partial fix | 06:17 |
| jdub | rml is my bitch, btw. | 06:18 |
| tseng | hm | 06:18 |
| schweeb | jdub: lol, I'd love to hear his take on that | 06:18 |
| lamont | jdub: you and mdz duke it out - I'm uncomfortable with enabling it by default given the date on my calendar and the current state of the code | 06:18 |
| jdub | lamont: does mdz want it on by default? | 06:18 |
| === lunitik wonders what is refered to by 'rml says .20 is due'... (.20 of what?) | ||
| jdub | schweeb: quoting... | 06:19 |

| jdub | You tell me what you want and need and I'll do it--I totally am at your | 06:19 |
| jdub | mercy, as I infinitely appreciate you guys shipping inotify. | 06:19 |
| jdub | 06:19 | |

| === lamont scratches his head, repeatedly | ||
| lamont | -25 kernel source will enter the archive in 7 minutes. | 06:54 |

| tseng | oh theres the log | 06:58 |
| lamont | no inotify changes from -24 | 06:58 |

| daniels | mdz: kay | 07:13 |
| mdz | jdub: surely there is some way to address the unmounting problems, other than switching to inotify | 07:13 |
| mdz | because kernel panics are far worse | 07:13 |
| tseng | mdz: the diff between .18 and .19 is one line, comments out a spinlock operation | 07:14 |
| tseng | also applied in -mm, it looks like quite possibly the culprit | 07:15 |
| mdz | tseng: hmmm | 07:15 |

| tseng | mdz: definately | 07:16 |
| mdz | unless we can somehow confirm that it fixes all the bugs by morning | 07:16 |

| daniels | because .desktop supersedes .menu | 07:52 |
| daniels | .menu was only a debian thing; .desktop is common between all distributions and all desktop environments | 07:53 |
| YokoZar | I suspected it did. Is there a way to have this done for me automatically, or do I need to do it by hand? | 07:53 |
| YokoZar | Where do I put the .desktop file to have it installed in the right place? I'm gonna put this thing upstream too | 07:53 |
| daniels | you'll need to do it by hand | 07:53 |
| daniels | under /usr/share/applications I think, but jdub can correct me | 07:54 |

| YokoZar | Hmm. Wine also will create its own .desktop files to point to this as you install windows programs | 07:59 |
| jdub | yes | 08:01 |

| Mithrandir | daniels: unsure. pkgconfig, I think. | 10:09 |
| pitti | Kamion: http://people.ubuntu.com/~pitti/langpack-deps.txt shows the new scheme | 10:09 |
| Kamion | daniels: not fatal for array 6, but if you can get it past preview freeze I think it'd be nice | 10:09 |
| Mithrandir | it's just the binary which is called pkg-config | 10:10 |
| Kamion | pitti: ok, thanks | 10:10 |
| daniels | Mithrandir: just dump it somewhere there (/srv/pkgconfig.freedesktop.org/www) | 10:10 |

| daniels | Kamion: not uploaded | 10:10 |
| jordi | when is a6 due? | 10:11 |
| pitti | Kamion: upgrade and installation from scratch work; however, manually upgrading just with dpkg -i is impossible (without --force flags) | 10:11 |
| Kamion | jordi: today sometime | 10:11 |
| pitti | Kamion: works fine with apt, though | 10:11 |

| Mithrandir | daniels: ok, and is there some common way of announcing, or just do it on fm and any other random places? | 10:11 |
| pitti | Kamion: the only cosmetical flaw is now that an apt-get remove language-pack-foo won't automatically remove the base package | 10:11 |

| Cym | Hi.. | 12:09 |
| Cym | I would like to report a problem with libapache2-mod-auth-mysql | 12:10 |
| Cym | I have been going through the source code and comparing it to the previous version | 12:10 |
| lunitik | Cym: bugzilla.ubuntu.com | 12:12 |
| Cym | 4.3.8-1 doesnt display the problem but 4.3.9-1 gives me an internal error when I attempt to browse a directory that does not belong to the users group | 12:12 |
| Cym | well I talked to the main package maintainer for it but he cant seem to reproduce the problem | 12:13 |
| Kamion | Cym: our resident Apache guru is travelling to/from our datacentre at the moment, so as lunitik says filing a bug is probably the best approach | 12:13 |
| Cym | and I noticed that ubuntu has repackaged it | 12:13 |
| Kamion | it's not a repackaging | 12:13 |
| Kamion | we've modified it to disable apache 1.3 support, since we don't want to support that | 12:14 |
| Cym | right | 12:14 |
| Cym | i saw that | 12:14 |
| Cym | yah and that appears to be the only difference | 12:14 |
| Kamion | the change in 4.3.9-1 sounds like it might easily affect permissions handling ... | 12:15 |

| jdub | sabdfl: cliff is pretty clear on the recognition power of the current gdm; so far we're just going to change colour, and do something about the gradient. | 04:03 |
| sabdfl | ok | 04:03 |
| sabdfl | something subtle... colours on that one are pretty good | 04:04 |
| jdub | if we put a version number in, it ought to be "Ubuntu 5.04" | 04:04 |
| sabdfl | the thing i'd like to have seen there are some of the eye-candy fadeover effects for colour transitions | 04:04 |
| sabdfl | mousover is a little SUDDEN at the moment | 04:04 |
| jdub | that requires quite a bit more work | 04:04 |

| jdub | oh well, at least 2.6.11 didn't come out closer to final release date :) | 04:08 |
| Kamion | I'm still confused about the way our linux-source-2.6.11.orig.tar.gz isn't | 04:09 |

| Kamion | doko: depends if we care about upgrades from woody any more; I guess since sarge isn't released, that's still a consideration | 04:11 |

| Kamion | pitti: ah yes | 04:13 |
| pitti | Kamion: probably he wants to maintain the changes to final as a patch, or so | 04:13 |
| Kamion | Mithrandir: yeah, but IIRC not in anything required for the upgrade? | 04:13 |
| Kamion | pitti: yes, I think it's better not to take that approach though | 04:13 |
| pitti | agree :-), it's a bit ugly | 04:14 |
| Mithrandir | Kamion: well, true | 04:14 |
| Kamion | although sarge base is now changing little enough that it's probably safe to upgrade via that if you're careful | 04:15 |

| seb128 | and thanks libtool | 05:24 |
| lamont | so things that are failing because of that want to d-w the current (source) version of libgnomevfs2-dev | 05:24 |

| seb128 | we get that mess | 05:24 |

| mvo | mdz: do you want me to upload a fixed update-notifer (once it's fixed)? or should I wait until array-6 is finished? | 06:20 |
| rburton | right, if "foo" is in baz control but i want the pristine file, i did mv foo foo.newer and now baz update won't give me the original | 06:21 |
| rburton | why won't it do what cvs does! | 06:21 |
| mdz | mvo: trivial fix? | 06:21 |
| mdz | rburton: you want "baz undo" | 06:21 |
| mvo | mdz: no idea yet, still downloading a testcd :/ | 06:21 |
| mdz | which I find more intuitive than what cvs does | 06:22 |
| rburton | ah yes | 06:22 |
| mdz | mvo: then let's wait :-) | 06:22 |
| rburton | so i cp the file and baz undo it | 06:22 |
| Kamion | (baz undo -n to throw away the change rather than leaving ,,undo-*) | 06:22 |
| mdz | rburton: or just baz undo it; it saves your changes so you can redo them later, etc. | 06:22 |
| mvo | mdz: ok :) | 06:23 |
| rburton | aaah ok | 06:23 |

| jdub | tseng: ahr! | 06:59 |
| mdz | specifically, that sg should be loaded for cdrom devices | 06:59 |
| mdz | in order to support writers | 07:00 |
| jbailey | mdz: HEre. What's up? | 07:00 |
| mdz | jbailey: see above | 07:00 |
| === tseng tests the media/mnt issue | ||
| mdz | jbailey: I emailed you a (substandard) diff | 07:01 |
| jbailey | mdz: md and I were chatting by email about that - I don't get any information telling me that it's a burner AFAIK. I can simply always load sg when there's a SCSI device easily enough. | 07:01 |
| mdz | jbailey: yeah, that's what I've been doing | 07:01 |
| mdz | daniels: xserver-xorg is asking me the video mode question on every upgrade | 07:01 |
| tseng | jdub: hm, so still no hotplug usb showing up in drivemount-applet / desktop | 07:01 |
| mdz | daniels: (this is my usual system, behind a KVM which doesn't do DDC) | 07:01 |
| mdz | daniels: it's also wiping out my manually-specified sync ranges | 07:02 |
| tseng | jdub: was rumored to be fixed in latest gamin | 07:02 |
| Kamion | mdz: I'm off for dinner now; test images are syncing/burning in my absence | 07:02 |
| mdz | Kamion: the cloop builds aren't quite finished yet, at least not for all arches | 07:02 |
| Kamion | no problem | 07:02 |
| jbailey | mdz: Oh, I see. Do it only when it's a cd drive at all, that makes sense. Is there nothing else that might want sg too? | 07:03 |
| mdz | weddell and king are finished | 07:03 |
| mdz | jbailey: the only examples I know of are CD writers and tape changers | 07:03 |
| mdz | I don't have one of the latter to test with | 07:03 |
| === mvo is away for ~1h | ||
| jbailey | mdz: I can do it easily enough with st then too. | 07:03 |
| mdz | jbailey: if I'm not mistaken, this applies to USB writers, too | 07:04 |
| mdz | it doesn't typically matter for me because I use growisofs and DVD media (which doesn't require the sg madness) | 07:04 |
| jbailey | Do those show up as SCSI? | 07:04 |
| tseng | hm, unmounting said usb hotplug device = hardlock | 07:04 |
| mdz | jbailey: yes | 07:04 |
| mdz | tseng: welcome to inotify hell | 07:04 |
| jbailey | mdz: Then it should be covered by this. I make sure that SCSI is run after both pci and usb. | 07:04 |
| mdz | s/welcome/& back/ | 07:04 |
| tseng | thanks. | 07:04 |

| thom | i don't appear to have anything from enrico; i'll grab and take a look | 07:10 |
| froud | thom: we are stuck on the OMF scrollkeeper stuf | 07:12 |
| froud | I have requested help from the devel group there | 07:13 |
| froud | no answer yet | 07:13 |
| sivang | froud: see the "writing scrollkeeper OMF files" intro on d.g.o | 07:13 |
| froud | we are not sure if its a scrollkeeper problem or an XML catalog problem | 07:13 |
| froud | sivang: its notthe OMF that is valid to the DTD | 07:14 |
| froud | the problem is at registereation | 07:14 |
| froud | registration | 07:14 |
| sivang | froud: is enrico calling update-scrollkeeper post install? | 07:14 |
| froud | we get an error that the dtd cannot be loaded from the network | 07:14 |
| sivang | froud: argh | 07:14 |
| mdz | it should point to the local copy, not the network copy | 07:14 |
| froud | it does | 07:15 |
| froud | but the DocType Decl uses Docbook 4.3 | 07:15 |
| mdz | froud: neither ubuntu-faqguide nor ubuntu-quickguide installs an omf file; is that intended? | 07:15 |
| froud | mdz: yes | 07:16 |
| froud | we have notpackaged it as it does not work yet | 07:16 |
| froud | we cant register the OMF without errors | 07:16 |
| froud | but we also have problems with Yelp | 07:17 |
| froud | it doe snot support many things | 07:17 |
| froud | I would preffer to only use the HTML we derived from the XML | 07:17 |
| froud | Open directly in FireFox from System > | 07:17 |
| froud | menu | 07:17 |
| mdz | can't yelp read the XML directly? | 07:18 |
| froud | It can but does not support the full docbook tag set | 07:18 |
| froud | also cant handle certain attributes | 07:18 |
| rburton | froud: shaun has said he'll expand the xslt on demand | 07:19 |

| froud | yes I sope to him | 07:19 |

| mdz | thanks | 07:23 |
| froud | jdub: docbook 4.3 but for example we use the endterm of xref | 07:23 |
| froud | yelp does not know what to do in the XSL | 07:23 |
| mjg59 | Gah damned network card reference counting | 07:24 |

| froud | personally I dont think Yelp is production ready | 07:24 |

| seb128 | it works great here | 07:25 |

| froud | jdub: we can get far better results with just XHTML/HTML | 07:25 |
| seb128 | ? | 07:25 |
| jdub | froud: yelp renders all the gnome documentation, which is not exactly insignificant. | 07:25 |
| sivang | seb128: it also _so_ pretty , I should tell shaunm about how much I like it | 07:25 |

| seb128 | jdub: not only the GNOME one, it displays the API and other debian stuff fine too :) | 07:26 |
| sivang | froud: work with shaunm, he would help us make the XML integrate nicely | 07:26 |
| froud | I am saying yelp does not support what we are doing in the Ubuntu Docs | 07:26 |
| sivang | froud: did he get an account for the docteam svn server eventually? | 07:26 |
| froud | sivang he did not want one | 07:27 |
| froud | he cant commit to the project no point giving him an account | 07:27 |
| rburton | froud: is there a list of tags which are problematic? | 07:27 |
| sivang | froud: eh, talked with him before mataro and he was interested, well, guess he changed his mind. | 07:27 |
| froud | two are tops of the list: trademark | 07:27 |
| jdub | sivang: he's keen to help, but he's very busy. becoming a documentation maintainer is not going to be useful for him. | 07:28 |
| froud | and the endterm attribute on the xref | 07:28 |
| rburton | froud: ok | 07:28 |
| sivang | jdub: ah good to know he didn't change his mind then ;) and yes, I know he's very busy | 07:28 |
| froud | The GNOME docs are made to strict templates | 07:28 |
| froud | these templates do not meet our requirements | 07:28 |
| mxpxpod | quick question: is anyone working on the 2.6.11 kernel for ubuntu? | 07:29 |

| seb128 | mdz: we have stopped to sed the oasis dtd in the debian/rules since we have a catalog | 07:41 |
| mdz | seb128: it should detect the URL and substitute the local file? | 07:41 |
| seb128 | correct | 07:41 |
| thom | your OMF doesn't match your docbook, either | 07:41 |
| mdz | ah, I didn't know that | 07:41 |
| mdz | seb128: which package handles that? | 07:41 |
| froud | thom only the releae enotes one | 07:41 |
| froud | thom: only the release notes one | 07:41 |
| jdub | mdz: libxml2 does the resolving, if there's a valid (and useful) catalog | 07:42 |

| sivang | froud: omf, even | 07:42 |
| dholbach | isnt it libxml2-utils? | 07:42 |
| seb128 | mdz: the catalog stuff are in /etc/xml/ and the packages shipping a dtd are supposed to use update-catalog, but I don't really know the details on how that works | 07:42 |

| sivang | froud: eh, I installed from source | 07:44 |
| froud | no the build is behind the src | 07:44 |

| froud | and everyone else on the docteam? | 07:52 |
| mdz | yes, the catalog lookup certainly seems to work from the shell | 07:52 |

| mdz | but it clearly isn't using it for processing the xml for some reason | 07:52 |
| froud | to get xslt proc working we hav eto export the xmlcatalog | 07:52 |
| mdz | if I change the URL to a local one, it works of course | 07:52 |
| froud | mdz: sure | 07:53 |
| mdz | shouldn't we do that as a workaround, since these documents are intended to be used primarily on Hoary? | 07:53 |
| sivang | froud: when you have your OMF registering, take a look at /usr/share/scrollkeeper/Templates/C/scrollkeeper_cl.xml - make the omf falls into one of the catagories specified there, if you havn't done so already. | 07:53 |
| seb128 | BTW time for dinner, bbl | 07:53 |
| froud | sivang: OK. I saw this part in the scollkeeper docs 1.0 | 07:54 |
| froud | I dont think the problem is scroollkeep I think it is the xml catalog on hoary | 07:54 |
| froud | mdz: yes we can, but that means we work around a bug without solving the problem | 07:55 |
| sivang | froud: ah ok, just noting it to you since I managed to register some dummy docs of mine into yelp long ago, and the one thing preventing me from succeding was that I used the wrong catagories. | 07:55 |
| froud | mdz: it also assumes the location of the dtd will not change in the furture | 07:55 |
| froud | sivang: thank | 07:56 |
| trulux | tritium: ping | 07:56 |
| tritium | trulux, hello | 07:56 |
| froud | mdz: btw on my suse boxes the dtd and xsl's are indifferent places. The same place you will find them on most distros | 07:56 |
| trulux | tritium: going to finish as most sections as I can, the JFFS3 work could get some time before I really start coding, among the currently cailable patch, Intell will approve the work in 2 months or so :D | 07:56 |
| froud | I dont know why debian still has them in the old locations | 07:57 |
| trulux | tritium: howya? | 07:57 |
| mdz | froud: as far as I can tell, the catalog is correct | 07:57 |
| mdz | apparently scrollkeeper isn't using it properly | 07:57 |
| tritium | trulux, I'm fine, thanks. You? | 07:57 |
| froud | at this point it gets beyond me | 07:57 |
| mdz | aha | 07:58 |
| froud | mdz: I am opefully going to get a response soon from the scrollkeep devel team | 07:58 |
| mdz | it works if I use DocBook 4.0 | 07:58 |

| mdz | /usr/share/doc/docbook-xml/examples/test-4.3.xml | 07:59 |
| tritium | trulux, good | 07:59 |
| froud | Hmm ... I'm not immediately sure where the problem lies either. Would | 07:59 |
| froud | you be able to attach an example OMF file that fails, please? This | 07:59 |
| froud | shouldn't be too hard to diagnose. | 07:59 |
| froud | mdz: here is the initial response from one devel of scrollkeeper "" | 07:59 |
| froud | so I sent him the file. | 07:59 |
| froud | mdz: I will role back to dtd 4.1.2 | 08:00 |
| froud | until we fix this | 08:00 |
| froud | or they do | 08:00 |

| === lamont grumbles about kde-in-main's effect on his local mirror, heads down to a friends house to finish babysitting gnome | ||
| mdz | lamont: have you considered that perhaps you don't have enough bandwidth for a local mirror? | 08:01 |
| lamont | mdz: I don't have enough money to _not_ have one | 08:02 |
| mdz | lamont: I don't understand; a local mirror surely uses more bandwidth, not less | 08:02 |
| lamont | I have all the data transfer I want, at 56kbps or less. | 08:03 |
| lamont | the local mirror lets me spread the download cost over the entire day | 08:03 |
| lamont | rather than downloading at speed (or not) as needed | 08:03 |
| lamont | and it's a partial mirror, although I do have it pretty much grabbing all of main (minus some langpack stuff, and -dbg packages) | 08:03 |
| thom | seb128: btw, OMF file [/usr/share/omf/gnome-utils/gfloppy-ja.omf] does not validate against ScrollKeeper-OMF DTD: /usr/share/xml/scrollkeeper/dtds/scrollkeeper-omf.dtd | 08:04 |

| mdz | things like the faq guide and quick guide should be out in front | 08:35 |

| Kamion | actually, if everyone who can could give the current daily a go to make sure it detects all their hardware (you don't have to go past partitioning, so you don't need a scratch partition to install in or anything), I'd greatly appreciate it | 09:22 |

| thully | OK - I just was curious - I didn't think I had asked that many times - just once yesterday and once the day before | 09:43 |
| Kamion | yes, but you always ask while I'm in the middle of preparing a release, before it's even late | 09:44 |

| Kamion | and it does have a certain "are we nearly there yet" feel about it :) | 09:44 |
| tseng | /topic ARE WE THERE YET? | 09:45 |
| Kamion | please feel free to ask if the release is late, but before then it's best to assume that we (particularly I) are working on it fairly solidly | 09:45 |
| thully | OK - sorry I asked at all the wrong times... | 09:46 |
| Kamion | mdz gets to ask me, but he's my boss ;) | 09:46 |
| mdz | thully: when it is released, it will be announced on the mailing lists and on IRC as usual | 09:46 |
| Kamion | (and sabdfl, fairly obviously ...) | 09:46 |
| mdz | so in general, all you need to do is wait | 09:47 |
| Kamion | we're down to pretty solid release times for Array milestones now, unlike the early days of Hoary where I do concede that they were frequently much delayed | 09:47 |
| === ohanzee [~ravi@dynamic-62-56-40-147.park-s46b.dslaccess.co.uk] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Kamion | but as the final release approaches we have a much better chance of being able to get them out on time | 09:48 |
| thully | OK - sorry for barging in.. | 09:49 |
| Kamion | np :) | 09:49 |
| Kamion | T-Bone: http://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-users/2005-March/024574.html <-- told you so ;-) | 09:50 |
| thully | I'm just anxious for a new array release to test some things that may be specific to new installs... i could grab a daily, but I'm on a semi-slow connection and I've had problems getting dailies installed in the past | 09:50 |
| T-Bone | Kamion: blame it on jbailey ;) | 09:51 |
| Kamion | rightly so, the current daily's second stage breaks | 09:51 |
| Kamion | jbailey: ^- | 09:51 |
| Kamion | jbailey: (the same complaint was raised in Debian when they turned the hard disk LED on for powerpc, and it was quickly turned off again) | 09:52 |
| === T-Bone has no clue what it does | ||
| === T-Bone doesn't have a laptop | ||
| jbailey | Kamion: Ah weird. I had a guy here complaining that it went away when it used to do it. | 09:52 |
| thully | I wonder, is there a chance that comeone else could test a Hoary install without any networking before release - I do all my installs without networking installed and this tends to present some unique issues for me | 09:52 |
| jbailey | Kamion: Apparently otherwise there's no hdd light at all on those beasts. | 09:52 |
| Kamion | I'll try to do so | 09:52 |
| Kamion | jbailey: yes, but I have such a beast; the hdd light is pretty annoying :) | 09:53 |
| Kamion | if we turn it on it would be nice to expose a sysctl to turn it off again | 09:53 |
| thully | no networking - meaning I don't use ethernet and intermittently use wi-fi, and use a modem-like device for all my net traffic | 09:53 |
| jbailey | I'll lart James Morrison on behalf of all of you, then. =) | 09:53 |
| Kamion | I have some difficulty constructing a machine with no network devices at all, but I may be able to do so; I can certainly disconnect wireless | 09:54 |
| Kamion | but I cannot promise changes before array 6 now, only before the preview | 09:54 |
| sivang | Good night all | 09:54 |
| thully | OK - I install w/no ethernet or wi-fi installed, and I can get through the install, but I've had a few quirks... | 09:55 |
| Kamion | since the network configurator's in the d-i initrd which has an extra build delay and a human interaction component at the archive end | 09:55 |
| === Kamion sighs and works around the kickseed bug again | ||
| thully | like a network icon in the system tray for the loopback interface, and a network configurator in d-i that isn't exactly friendly to a non-networked setup | 09:56 |
| === OddAbe19 [~OddAbe19@pcp02542642pcs.lncstr01.pa.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| === Kamion tests with the wireless card pulled out | ||
| Kamion | wait for DHCP -> DHCP error -> "Do not configure the network at this time" -> select hostname | 09:58 |
| Kamion | which is probably fair enough for a device with disconnected ethernet | 09:59 |
| Kamion | let's try removing the ethernet kernel module | 09:59 |
| thully | I'm mostly talking with no ethernet or wireless networks available - on my laptop I have an ethernet and wireless card, but often install with neither ethernet or wireless available | 09:59 |
| Kamion | yes I know | 09:59 |
| thully | the cards are available, but not the networks | 09:59 |
| Kamion | if the card's plugged in then you get the sequence I just described | 09:59 |
| thully | It may be a good idea at some point (not array 6 and maybe not even the preview) to clean up the d-i network configuration to be easier for non-network users | 10:00 |
| Kamion | I don't honestly think the sequence I described is that bad | 10:00 |
| thully | For example, if I pick wireless on that screen (since I want wi-fi to be configured for later use) i'm stuck in an infinite loop | 10:01 |
| === ggi [~ggi@ggi.base.supporter.pdpc] has left #ubuntu-devel [""Sir] | ||
| Kamion | that certainly sounds like a bug, will see if I can reproduce | 10:01 |
| thully | and the only way to get out is backing out to the installer menu and manually skipping steps, which doesn't configure the loopback interface (already reported as a bug) | 10:01 |
| Kamion | I thought I fixed that one recently though | 10:02 |
| Kamion | the wireless loop | 10:02 |
| === miketech [~mike@port-212-202-55-217.dynamic.qsc.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| thully | Well, my experience is if you pick wireless, it will scan for networks, and prompt you for essid if it doesn't find one. If you don't specify an essid, it will repeat the process. Hence, there is no way to configure the wi-fi for later use | 10:03 |
| Kamion | yes that's the bug I thought I'd fixed | 10:03 |
| Kamion | no network interfaces at all -> red screen telling me that -> hit Continue -> select hostname -> install continues | 10:04 |
| thully | what is the new behavior at this stage of an install-to-HD (not a live CD, that works differently) | 10:04 |
| thully | if you pick wireless w/no WAPs available | 10:04 |
| Kamion | one moment, I have to engineer such a setup, which will doubtless annoy my housemates | 10:05 |
| Loevborg | different problem here, when i installed I didn't get an opportunity to _not_ configure my networking. | 10:05 |
| Kamion | Loevborg: good | 10:05 |
| Kamion | that's a feature, not a bug :) | 10:05 |
| Loevborg | Kamion, but with wireless, it keeps asking me questions about it. | 10:06 |
| thully | Also, it may be a good idea to add a "No network" option to the menu which gives you a choice of network cards to configure | 10:06 |
| Kamion | Loevborg: see what I just said to thully! | 10:06 |
| Loevborg | Kamion, sure. | 10:06 |
| Loevborg | still, being able to skip the dhcp run would be an improvement imho. | 10:06 |
| Kamion | Loevborg: doubt that'll happen, sorry | 10:07 |
| Loevborg | I'm sure this has been discusses a lot though :) | 10:07 |
| Kamion | thully: there are already several options on the netcfg "stuff went wrong" menu, one of which I'm sure did that | 10:07 |
| Kamion | Loevborg: yes, we have a hard requirement not to add more questions to the install | 10:07 |
| Kamion | so "try DHCP, if it fails then go away" is about the best we can do given that many network cards don't support ethtool/MII properly or lie in the results | 10:09 |
| thully | well, I'm just saying - if a dial-up user (yes, they still exist) wants to install Ubuntu, it should be easy to just pick "No network" right when they're prompted to configure network cards and skip over the whole process (just list it in addition to the available network cards) | 10:09 |
| Loevborg | but when it asks me which interface to configure, it could just aswell admit "none" as a third option. | 10:09 |
| Kamion | Loevborg: that's only useful if you have >1 interface though, with 1 interface we want it to just try | 10:09 |
| Kamion | thully: hm, ok, that wireless loop bug is still there, evidently I only fixed the live CD case | 10:10 |
| Kamion | sorry about that, I thought I'd got both | 10:10 |
| Loevborg | Kamion, and when it asks me for an ESSID, there could also be an option to skip it. but don't think I'm complaining, only suggesting. | 10:11 |
| Kamion | Loevborg: see the last two lines. :-) | 10:11 |
| Loevborg | "proposing" | 10:11 |
| Kamion | I'm having two independent conversations about the exact same thing with two people here, it's very confusing | 10:11 |
| === tritium [~tritium@ee213-dhcp-14.ecn.purdue.edu] has left #ubuntu-devel ["Leaving"] | ||
| Loevborg | to add some spice, /etc/init.d/networking sometimes takes ages to configure wireless, and then - sometimes - when I ctrl-c it, Xorg doesn't start (no loopback device). | 10:13 |

| === eruin [~eruin@eruin.user] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Kamion | thully: sure, it's much better that than to report them *just* before a release which is the exact time when I have no hope of fixing them before the next milestone release :) | 10:15 |
| Kamion | stuff in bugzilla about d-i will be assigned to me (either automatically or, probably, manually) | 10:15 |
| Kamion | and I will try to do what I can about no-network configuration | 10:16 |
| sabdfl | Kamion: should the new cdrom/sata stuff mean that it should work on a normal installed desktop too? | 10:16 |
| Kamion | sabdfl: given unified hardware detection, I'd hope so, but I'm not certain | 10:17 |

| sabdfl | hm... | 10:32 |
| sabdfl | so that should work? | 10:32 |
| mdz | should be /dev/scd* | 10:32 |
| Kamion | thully: right, replied | 10:32 |
| jbailey | sabdfl: It seems like the unified drivers just do the whole thing as SCSI now, even the PATA drives. | 10:32 |
| sabdfl | ok | 10:32 |
| jbailey | mdz: I had /dev/scd0 too. | 10:32 |
| sabdfl | i see /dev/scd0 too | 10:32 |
| mdz | well yay | 10:33 |
| jbailey | sabdfl: If you could test that it actually reads, that would be lovely. My SATA system is in a data centre, 3 times zones from here. | 10:33 |
| thully | Kamion: should I file a lower-priority bug requesting a "None" option on the screen prompting for a network card to configure? | 10:33 |
| Kamion | thully: sure | 10:33 |
| Kamion | thully: I doubt it will happen for systems with one interface, but it could happen for systems with more than one | 10:34 |
| thully | well, systems w/one interface will automatically try that and prompt if it can't find a network to connect to, so it isn't necessary | 10:34 |
| Kamion | the same argument applies to systems with one interface | 10:35 |
| Kamion | it's just that changing it for systems with one interface would involve an extra question that previously wasn't asked | 10:35 |
| Kamion | jbailey: all-IDE systems are still /dev/hdc or whatever, at least | 10:37 |
| jbailey | Kamion: Yes. It's only where the sata driver is providing the pata interface too. | 10:38 |
| === ohanzee [~ravi@dynamic-62-56-40-147.park-s46b.dslaccess.co.uk] has left #ubuntu-devel [] | ||
| thully | OK - this "none" option issue is bug #7101 | 10:41 |
| thully | Also, you were saying a red screen appeared when there is no network - shouldn't this just be a normal screen, since systems with no network isn't necessarily an error... | 10:42 |
| Kamion | perhaps, yes | 10:42 |
| Kamion | go ahead and file about that too, component netcfg | 10:44 |
| thully | One last issue with non-networked setups - After install, there is always a network status icon for loopback in the system tray - any way this can be taken care of? | 10:45 |
| thom | thully: that'll go away in hoary+1 | 10:46 |
| Kamion | didn't you say that was because you went back rather than continuing? | 10:46 |

| lamont_r | Kamion: user trying to install got an error about not finding a kernel on his x86 box... with a recent daily, i believe | 11:44 |
| Kamion | lamont_r: would need to see logs | 11:44 |
| Kamion | /var/log/* | 11:44 |
| Mithrandir | Kamion: in PC World Norway Express (which is a biweekly thingy), our installer is described as "quick and boring". I think that's a good thing. :) | 11:44 |
| lamont_r | ah, I have proc/cpuinfo - will get the rest for you | 11:44 |
| Kamion | Mithrandir: excellent. :) | 11:44 |
| mdz | Kamion: let me know when I should test a new set of images | 11:45 |
| Kamion | lamont_r: could just be a bad burn | 11:45 |
| Kamion | mdz: waiting for next cron.daily to kick them off | 11:45 |
| HcE | Mithrandir: why should an installer be "fun" ? | 11:45 |
| Mithrandir | they complain about that they couldn't find any graphical way to download updates, so probably haven't found synaptic. | 11:45 |
| HcE | maybe implement tetris support ;) | 11:45 |
| Mithrandir | HcE: as I said, I think it's a good thing that it's boring. Not interesting or anything. :) | 11:46 |
| mdz | Kamion: are we finished with package uploads for array 6 (assuming no new problems are discovered)? do we need to build a new cloop image to get in sync? | 11:46 |
| HcE | plain, straith forware is excellent | 11:46 |
| lamont_r | Kamion: requested, we'll see how quick a turn around we get... | 11:46 |

| Kamion | mdz: yeah, I think so; please do | 11:48 |
| mvo | Mithrandir: yeah, I know :) | 11:48 |
| mdz | ok | 11:48 |
| Kamion | Mithrandir: or the update manager | 11:48 |
| jbailey | Kamion: So that I know, what's the matching rootskel update that was needed to go along with #1440, the SATA fix? | 11:49 |

| Kamion | jbailey: src/lib/debian-installer-startup.d/S03hotplug runs init scripts | 11:49 |
| Kamion | rc scripts, rather | 11:49 |
| Kamion | hmm, I suppose I should update ddetect as well ... | 11:49 |
| Kamion | I'll do that after array 6 | 11:49 |
| mdz | Kamion: are there good reasons why it can't use init.d/hotplug? | 11:49 |
| Kamion | mdz: I do not particularly want to delegate critical parts of d-i startup to other packages, particularly not when merging this back to Debian | 11:50 |
| Kamion | using init scripts from the real system has been a good way to break things in the past | 11:50 |
| Mithrandir | Kamion: was the update manager in warty? | 11:50 |
| mdz | due to busybox? | 11:50 |
| Kamion | and the change I made is much simpler | 11:50 |
| mdz | Mithrandir: no | 11:50 |
| Mithrandir | HcE: I know :) | 11:50 |
| Kamion | mdz: due to crap like LSB init scripts :( | 11:50 |
| Kamion | but busybox also | 11:50 |
| Kamion | I really think it's much clearer what's going on the way it is | 11:51 |
| jbailey | Kamion: What's the best way for me to make sure that anything I fiddle with in hotplug gets into d-i? I've got mdz's sg patch done here and tested, so it's ready to go in. | 11:51 |
| HcE | Mithrandir: all my support over MSN are not mentioned :P | 11:51 |
| Kamion | jbailey: d-i uses everything else in hotplug as normal, it's just rc script ordering | 11:51 |
| mdz | a <1k /lib/lsb/init-functions would solve that problem once and for all, but I'll take your word that overall it's not the right thing | 11:51 |
| Kamion | mdz: I do have such an init-functions, it's an ugly hack IMHO and I wish it could go away | 11:51 |
| jbailey | Kamion: 'k | 11:52 |
| Kamion | I've been meaning to fix pcmcia-cs for a while ... | 11:52 |
| mdz | jbailey: you're not planning to upload it until after array 6, though, right? | 11:52 |
| === jbailey hands a large flamethrower to kamion to help with the pcmcia-cs fixing. | ||
| mdz | is there anyone who is working on moving pcmcia to hotplug so that pcmcia-cs can go away? | 11:53 |
| jbailey | mdz: I was planning on checking with you in a moment now that it's ready to make sure I wouldn't run over array 6 in any way. | 11:53 |
| Kamion | jbailey: BTW, have a look at the way I did the init script ordering in rootskel; I think it's much simpler and I'm not sure how the very complex version in hotplug is better? | 11:53 |
| mdz | seb128: gah, I thought you were finished | 11:53 |
| Mithrandir | HcE: *chuckle* :) | 11:53 |
| mdz | we need to stop uploading at some point here so that we can build consistent CD images | 11:53 |
| seb128 | mdz: the gnome-vfs2 upload interfers with the array 6 build ? | 11:54 |
| mdz | seb128: it goes on the CDs, yes | 11:54 |
| mdz | our goal is to have the same versions on the live CD and the install CD | 11:54 |

| seb128 | mdz: sorry for that, just pushing a samba fix for nautilus, trying to get smb:// working fine for 2.10 | 11:54 |
| jbailey | Kamion: What's the best way to pull the source for rootskel? I usually use my Debian d-i checkouts for looking at that code. | 11:55 |
| jdub | mdz: do we have any download stats? | 11:55 |
| Kamion | jbailey: no revision control yet, just 'apt-get source rootskel' with Ubuntu deb-src lines, sorry | 11:55 |
| mdz | jdub: for what? | 11:55 |
| jdub | mdz: warty | 11:56 |
| mdz | jdub: yes | 11:56 |
| thom | Kamion: is it too early to ask whether i cocked up those by hands? (/me is panicing about them somewhat) | 11:56 |
| jdub | do i have to go through elmo? | 11:56 |
| Kamion | lamont_r: "requested of whom" -> oh, sorry, I got confused by interleaving conversations | 11:56 |
| mdz | jdub: depending on what you want, yes | 11:56 |
| Kamion | thom: can't quite tell yet :( I assume you unpacked them into dists/hoary/main/daily-installer-*/ and updated the current symlinks? | 11:57 |
| doko | mvo: hi, still awake? | 11:57 |
| jdub | mdz: hrm, just want some user-understandable figure | 11:57 |
| thom | Kamion: yeah | 11:57 |
| Kamion | thom: if you can push a cron.daily then I can check, but never mind if you can't | 11:57 |
| mdz | jdub: if you want "how many warty CDs did people download from us", we don't have that | 11:57 |
| jdub | what do we have? | 11:58 |
| mvo | doko: barely :) | 11:58 |
| mdz | access logs starting at some point after the release, I think. ftp logs starting at an unknown time. no bittorrent records since the last restart | 11:58 |
| mdz | /var/log/shrug | 11:59 |
| jdub | heh | 11:59 |
| jdub | nothing digestable to hand? | 11:59 |
| zul | mdz: davej wrote a document for suggestions for troubleshoting hardware http://people.redhat.com/davej/hardware-problems.txt when you got a sec can you have a look before i add it to the wiki | 11:59 |
| jbailey | Kamion: My version evolved out of me starting with tsort and slowly eliminating tools that I realised I didn't have until I was basically in shell. | 11:59 |
| jbailey | Kamion: This is far simpler. =) | 11:59 |
| mdz | Kamion: I guess I'm willing to let go of the ideal of having consistent live vs. install in the name of not waiting another hour; let's just use the cloop build which is in progress | 11:59 |
| mdz | next time, we'll harness elmo and lock down uploads | 12:00 |
