| pitti | Nafallo: if you really want to do universe updates again (YAY! :-) ), why not start with something more useful like ethereal= | 12:01 |
|---|---|---|
| pitti | ? | 12:01 |
| pitti | or clamav, spamassassin, etc. | 12:01 |
| pitti | Nafallo: I'd be fine with the new upstream microrelease for ethereal | 12:02 |
| Nafallo | pitti: mostly cause ethereal made me stop :-/. I can't get that patch down to better sizes and that made me jump off this train for a while :-/. | 12:03 |
| ajmitch | Nafallo: yes, ethereal is a rather evil package for security | 12:03 |
| pitti | Nafallo: as I said, if you package and test 0.10.11, that's fine for me in that case (the upstream release is cautious, and porting 15 patches doesn#t make sense) | 12:03 |
| pitti | ajmitch: that's why it is in universe, although it's highly useful | 12:04 |
| === ajmitch uses the top 2 items on the unfixed universe list | ||
| ajmitch | if only phpgroupware didn't take so long to download.. | 12:04 |
| jasoncohen | pitti, why is it an evil package? | 12:04 |
| Nafallo | pitti: oki. I'm sorry I didn't took a chat with you at the time, but now I'm back atleast :-). | 12:04 |
| pitti | jasoncohen: it's just evil security-wise :-) it has a very bad vuln history | 12:05 |
| pitti | Nafallo: no need to be sorry :-) | 12:05 |
| ajmitch | jasoncohen: there are about 20 open CANs for ethereal on that list :) | 12:05 |
| jasoncohen | pitti, ubuntu-cve/fixed.html doesn't show CAN-2005-1921 as being fixed for hoary but it is. see USN-147-1 https://www.ubuntulinux.org/support/documentation/usn/usn-147-1 | 12:06 |
| Nafallo | pitti: as soon as elmo add my key to the keyring I upload bugzilla for warty-security if that's okey? ;-) | 12:06 |
| pitti | Nafallo: well, warty's universe is a lost cause, but of course it's appreciated :-) | 12:07 |
| jasoncohen | ajmitch, ouch, i didnt' realize ethereal was that bad...what do the security issues involve? | 12:07 |
| Nafallo | pitti: the patch have been done for ages actually ;-) | 12:07 |
| pitti | jasoncohen: most of them are DoS only, but some are exploitable to code exection AFAIK | 12:07 |
| ajmitch | jasoncohen: lots of buggy plugins | 12:07 |
| ajmitch | format string issues, buffer overflows if you're unlucky | 12:08 |
| pitti | jasoncohen: http://people.ubuntu.com/~pitti/ubuntu-cve/nonvuln.html | 12:08 |
| pitti | CAN-2005-1921 | 12:08 |
| pitti | php4(hoary/main, breezy/main) | 12:08 |
| jasoncohen | but USN-147-1 shows CAN-2005-1921 for both hoary & warty | 12:10 |
| pitti | jasoncohen: yes, but php4-pear is in universe for hoary (from php4-universe source package) | 12:10 |
| pitti | jasoncohen: hoary was fixed more as a courtesy while we were at it | 12:11 |
| pitti | and because this was such a nasty one | 12:11 |
| jasoncohen | so libapache2-mod-php4 was never vulnerable in hoary? | 12:11 |
| pitti | nope | 12:11 |
| pitti | well, not against that XMLRPC issue at least :-) | 12:12 |
| jasoncohen | pitti, what are the hardest packages to backport security fixes for other than mozilla & firefox? | 12:14 |
| pitti | hmmm | 12:14 |
| === pitti looks at the list | ||
| === enrico [~enrico@enrico.developer.debian] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| pitti | jasoncohen: squid is relatively hard | 12:14 |
| pitti | and I had some pretty hairy samba patches | 12:15 |
| pitti | postgresql was nontrivial, too, but luckily I'm the Debian maintainer :-) | 12:15 |
| ajmitch | pitti: phpgroupware has 0.9.16.005-1 in hoary, 0.9.16.006-1 in debian, do you want only security fixes backported? | 12:16 |
| pitti | ajmitch: yes, is it so hard? | 12:17 |
| ajmitch | not terribly hard | 12:17 |
| ajmitch | since I know the upstream source | 12:17 |
| Amaranth | nice | 12:17 |
| pitti | I don't want to get more sloppy with upstream versions than now | 12:17 |
| ajmitch | ok | 12:17 |
| Amaranth | i have a 4 line python script that loads up a glade file, shouldn't have any problems right? | 12:17 |
| Amaranth | i managed to crash it due to the stupidity that is bonobo docks | 12:17 |
| jasoncohen | pitti, so, how long is too long for security updates? even on hoary, it took quite a while to get firefox updates (over 2 weeks) | 12:17 |
| pitti | jasoncohen: because I | 12:18 |
| pitti | spent a whole week with backporting | 12:18 |
| jasoncohen | heh, ouch | 12:18 |
| pitti | that shouldn't happen any more with new upstream versions | 12:18 |
| Amaranth | ooh, this is even reproducable | 12:18 |
| pitti | jasoncohen: the minimal patches were > 200 KB in total | 12:18 |
| jasoncohen | when would you have had 1.0.6 out if you just had to package the new upstream release? | 12:18 |
| pitti | on the very day I guess | 12:19 |
| pitti | updating warty took me three days | 12:19 |
| pitti | because 0.9.3 -> 1.0.6 is a hell of a lot of changes | 12:19 |
| jasoncohen | 53 CANs | 12:19 |
| pitti | but for hoary it was rather trivial | 12:19 |
| pitti | jasoncohen: also because I had to update all language packs and stuff | 12:19 |
| pitti | and sort out ancient patches | 12:20 |
| Nafallo | pitti: why does ubuntu-cve say debian's ethereal is vulnerable? :-) | 12:21 |
| pitti | Nafallo: because they didn't put CANs in the changelogs | 12:21 |
| pitti | and I didn't manually add them to my db | 12:21 |
| pitti | (well, I can't do that for Debian anyway) | 12:21 |
| Nafallo | pitti: hehe, oki :-) | 12:21 |

| mdz | Mez: yes, certainly | 12:32 |
| Mez | mdz: apparently, the current mono stuff had already been made to work in hoary (cause they wanted to release a mono livecd) | 12:32 |

| Mez | doko: I have no idea what that is, so I'm not gonna comment | 12:33 |

| hughsie | ogra: you may or may not be aware that libnotify released 0.2.1 today | 01:17 |
| hughsie | 0.2.0 was released yesterday, but had some dbus bugs we squashed | 01:18 |
| ogra | hughsie, you may or may not be aware that libnotify entered our archive today ;) | 01:18 |
| hughsie | okay, nice one. | 01:18 |
| ogra | 0.2.1-0ubuntu1 | 01:18 |
| ogra | :) | 01:18 |
| hughsie | quicker than me :-) | 01:18 |
| ajmitch | looks like seb uploaded 0.2.1 very soon after 0.2.0 | 01:18 |
| ogra | thast seb128 .... dont get in his way *g* | 01:19 |
| hughsie | you can build g-p-m with --enable-libnotify for all the new goodness | 01:19 |
| ogra | yeah, i'll do | 01:19 |
| hughsie | you'll need notification-daemon as well for it to work | 01:19 |
| hughsie | ogra: i've seen some of the ubuntu/debian patches that create a debian directory in the source tarball | 01:20 |
| hughsie | is that for every package? | 01:20 |
| ogra | yep | 01:20 |
| ogra | a debian package consists of: | 01:20 |
| hughsie | should it be upstream? is it easier that way | 01:20 |
| ogra | the orig.tar.gz file (original source ) | 01:21 |
| hughsie | k | 01:21 |
| ogra | the diff.gz (all distro changes and the debian dir) | 01:21 |
| Mez | ogra, did youy archive php4-universe | 01:21 |
| ogra | and a .dsc file that describes the two... | 01:21 |
| ogra | Mez, nope | 01:21 |
| Mez | just wondering cause you mentioned about ti going into main | 01:22 |
| Mez | weird... | 01:22 |
| === Mez is confused why ti was archived, but not uploaded | ||
| hughsie | ogra: cool, okay, so non of the /debian stuff is easier in package? | 01:22 |
| ogra | hughsie, i wouldnt mix upstream source and debian dir | 01:22 |
| hughsie | ogra: cool, i'm new to all this debian stuff | 01:23 |
| ajmitch | having the debian dir in upstream can be limiting | 01:23 |
| hughsie | ajmitch, ok, thanks. | 01:23 |
| ogra | except i develop it explicitly for this distro ... but if outher debian based distros want to package it differen mixing upstream source and packaging stuff can get odd | 01:23 |
| hughsie | ogra: could you (do you want to) package cvs g-p-m or shall I release 0.1.1? | 01:24 |
| ogra | hughsie, as you like... | 01:24 |
| ogra | i can do both... | 01:24 |
| hughsie | ogra: cvs is churning with new stuff at the moment | 01:24 |
| ogra | i think we'll have to wait a bit for dbus... | 01:24 |
| hughsie | i'll let it settle then do 0.1.1? | 01:24 |
| hughsie | okay, define "bit" | 01:25 |
| ogra | daniels is the guy who modularizes X | 01:25 |
| ogra | he's 4/5 throught... i dont know if he can make dbus inbetween | 01:25 |
| ogra | s/throught/through | 01:25 |
| hughsie | ogra: okay, cool. I'll just keep hacking | 01:26 |
| hughsie | you seen the hal patches I've sent recently? | 01:26 |
| ogra | i must admit i havent looked deeply... | 01:26 |
| ogra | but i saw you sent patches :) | 01:27 |
| hughsie | cool, i'm putting lots of the clever logic in hal so that other projects (like battstat-applet can use them | 01:27 |
| hughsie | ogra: I sleep now, I'll catch you guys tmw. | 01:29 |
| ogra | ah yes, i saw the request from ryan | 01:29 |
| ogra | hughsie, great, see you around :) | 01:29 |

| jasoncohen | Amaranth, what exactly do the patches provide? | 03:46 |
| OddAbe19 | i don't wanna | 03:46 |
| OddAbe19 | lol | 03:46 |
| jasoncohen | Amaranth, the gnome integration patches in ubuntu's firefox | 03:46 |
| Lathiat | OddAbe19: http://blogs.gnome.org/cball has information, but dont come crying in here if its broken | 03:47 |
| Amaranth | jasoncohen: the make it use the file chooser and such | 03:47 |
| Lathiat | OddAbe19: this is a development channel not a user support channel | 03:47 |
| OddAbe19 | i know it's development | 03:47 |
| OddAbe19 | i was courious | 03:47 |
| jasoncohen | Amaranth, do you have any idea why i would be getting a slight delay between switching pages in ubuntu's firefox while the official build works fine? | 03:47 |
| Amaranth | jasoncohen: nope | 03:47 |
| jasoncohen | it only seems to be an issue on ubuntu builds. it works fine in debian | 03:47 |
| Amaranth | can someone tell me if they're seeing http://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=13066 ? | 03:48 |
| jasoncohen | i've noticed in backports as well- but those are just breezy packages | 03:48 |
| Lathiat | jasoncohen: could be a pango thing | 03:48 |
| Amaranth | ah yeah, probably pango | 03:48 |
| astronut | Lathiat: no..where do i do that? | 03:48 |

| jasoncohen | Amaranth, i guess the official firefox build is lighter then because it doesn't require pango or many other dependencies | 03:55 |
| Lathiat | jasoncohen: ya, i noticed that using the deer park builds | 03:56 |
| Amaranth | well, those are so much faster anyway... | 03:56 |
| jasoncohen | yeah, i'm comparing 1.0.6 official to 1.0.6 ubuntu hoary | 03:56 |
| Amaranth | those with the GNOME integration will be faster than official 1.0 :) | 03:56 |
| jasoncohen | though, doesn't debian build with the same compile options & dependencies? | 03:56 |
| infinity | Reasonably similar, anyway. | 03:57 |
| jasoncohen | Amaranth, well- doesn't hoary's have gnome integration? | 03:57 |
| Amaranth | yes | 03:57 |
| jasoncohen | but i only notice the problem in ubuntu- no such "freezing' in sarge | 03:57 |
| jasoncohen | or sid | 03:57 |
| Amaranth | the gnome integration is a seperate package | 03:57 |
| Amaranth | i think | 03:57 |
| jasoncohen | yeah | 03:57 |

| jasoncohen | yeah- debian doesn't require the bonobo libs or gnome libs but ubuntu does | 04:02 |
| mrd` | Odd, /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/firefox-bin doesn't use any bonobo or gnome libs. | 04:03 |
| jasoncohen | deerpark will have automated security upgrades (and it won't upgrade if it would break one of your extensions dependeing on the setting). that'll be nice | 04:03 |
| Lathiat | jasoncohen: thats kinda cool | 04:03 |
| jasoncohen | yeah, i just tried an alpha build of deerpark today | 04:04 |
| Amaranth | it does binary deltas too | 04:04 |
| Amaranth | for the upgrades | 04:04 |
| jasoncohen | unfortunately the upgrade system isn't up yet- since releases are done by daily builds | 04:04 |
| Amaranth | yeah | 04:04 |
| Amaranth | the upgrade system is setup, it's just doing the 1.0 style | 04:04 |
| Amaranth | where it downloads the whole thing and reinstalls it | 04:05 |
| jasoncohen | do upgrades actually work in 1.0.x? | 04:05 |
| Lathiat | problem is | 04:05 |
| Amaranth | they do on windows | 04:05 |
| jasoncohen | when 1.0.6 came out it didn't show the update | 04:05 |
| Lathiat | how does that work on say liniux | 04:05 |
| Lathiat | where you cant overwrite the binaries? | 04:05 |
| Lathiat | (in many cases) | 04:05 |
| Amaranth | it doesn't work on windows when you can't overwrite the binaries either :P | 04:05 |
| jasoncohen | yeah | 04:05 |
| Amaranth | which is almost never, but they should start planning | 04:05 |
| jasoncohen | install in /opt and give user permission | 04:05 |
| mrd` | Why not just install in your home directory? | 04:06 |
| Amaranth | /opt is off limits too | 04:06 |
| Amaranth | you want ~/.local/ | 04:06 |
| jasoncohen | well, i installed in /home but some don't like doing that | 04:06 |
| Amaranth | ~/.local/ should work for most things | 04:06 |
| jasoncohen | if the upgrade system is good on 1.5, could the apt package support it? | 04:07 |
| jasoncohen | or will official upgrades always be through new .deb packages? | 04:07 |
| === azeem [~mbanck@proxy-out.lrz-muenchen.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| jasoncohen | i.e - 1.5 is packaged by ubuntu but upgrades are handled by the automated upgrade tool which is configured pre-install | 04:08 |
| Amaranth | firefox is C++ | 04:09 |
| === mrd` would hope you just install upstream's packages if you want their behaviour and Ubuntu's are upgraded through apt... | ||
| Amaranth | unless their upgrade tool had g++ 3.3 and g++ 4.0 versions... | 04:10 |
| wasabi | Hey so I had this neat idea... and was expecting that somebody had already done it, since usually somebody else does my neat ideas before i Have them. | 04:10 |
| Lathiat | wasabi: heh | 04:10 |
| wasabi | I want to make a livecd that boots from a flash disk and saves changes in a seperate place. | 04:11 |
| wasabi | Basically for an embedded router device. | 04:11 |
| ajmitch | wasabi: don't exsting live cds already allow for that? | 04:11 |
| wasabi | LiveCD have most of the infrastructure for that? | 04:11 |
| ajmitch | iirc knoppix let you save settings on a usb drive | 04:11 |
| wasabi | I want to use Ubuntu. | 04:11 |
| Lathiat | knoppix basically tars up /etc and /home | 04:11 |
| Lathiat | sticks that on a flash drive | 04:11 |
| Lathiat | and untars it on next boot | 04:11 |
| mrd` | They support booting from a CD and saving to a usb drive... I don't see why you couldn't boot from a usb drive and save to another usb drive or somewhere else if that's what you want. | 04:12 |
| wasabi | Ubuntu live CD uses some unionfs or something to track mods. | 04:12 |
| wasabi | I want to save the mods. | 04:12 |
| Lathiat | wasabi: yeh what you want is like unionfs i think | 04:12 |
| ajmitch | Lathiat: right, so you'd want an overlay fs, I can't recall what the live cd does for ubuntu | 04:12 |
| wasabi | BAsically on this flash disk, I can stick a file containing the "live cd". | 04:12 |
| wasabi | And another file containing the user mods. | 04:12 |
| wasabi | And at boot just set it up exactly like hte live cd does | 04:13 |
| wasabi | You'd be able to upgrade the device by just replacing that one file on the flash... like a cisco or something. | 04:13 |
| Lathiat | well | 04:13 |
| Lathiat | not sure thatd work so well | 04:13 |
| Lathiat | depends how your 'union' fs works | 04:13 |
| Lathiat | a cisco works liek that because it uses a configuration file | 04:13 |
| wasabi | Yeah. Are there docs about how the ubuntu live cd works? | 04:13 |
| Lathiat | whcih does everything | 04:13 |
| wasabi | Oh sure, but so does Linux. It just uses a bunch of config files. | 04:13 |
| wasabi | Which need to be isolated. ;) | 04:13 |
| Lathiat | sure but | 04:14 |
| Lathiat | what if the config file changes format | 04:14 |
| Lathiat | or whatever | 04:14 |
| Lathiat | or you wanna add stuff to the new version | 04:14 |
| Lathiat | .. etc :) | 04:14 |
| === azeem [~mbanck@proxy-out.lrz-muenchen.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| wasabi | Good question, I'll consider it later. | 04:14 |
| wasabi | I'd suspect that the dpkg upgrade routines should be run in some way. | 04:14 |
| jasoncohen | Amaranth, so, why does ubuntu's firefox have all these extra dependencies like bonobo libraries and gnome libraries that aren't needed for the debian or official builds? | 04:14 |
| wasabi | Just like as if it was really being upgraded. | 04:14 |
| ajmitch | jasoncohen: gnome integration | 04:14 |
| Amaranth | jasoncohen: For the GNOME integration. | 04:14 |
| wasabi | And those would be responsible for making it work, however... just like they are required to do now. | 04:14 |
| mrd` | Amaranth: Shouldn't only the firefox-gnome-integration package have those depends though? Not the firefox package? | 04:15 |
| jasoncohen | Amaranth, but gnome-integration is a seperate pacakge | 04:15 |
| Amaranth | *shrug* | 04:15 |
| jasoncohen | apt-cache show mozilla-firefox-gnome-support --> it has a bunch of dependencies as well | 04:15 |

| jasoncohen | Burgundavia, i checked for updates using the official build and none were shown | 06:26 |
| Burgundavia | jasoncohen, the Ubuntu build disables the auto checking | 06:27 |

| fabbione | hey pitti | 08:05 |
| tseng | some guy named ian of whom ive never heard trashed network-manager | 08:06 |
| tseng | (yay) | 08:06 |
| Lathiat | im over network-manager | 08:07 |
| Lathiat | its useless | 08:07 |
| infinity | I'm supposed to be putting some effort into whipping n-m into shape in the next week. | 08:08 |
| infinity | Anyone have any input more useful than "it's useless" or "egads, Ian broke it"? | 08:08 |
| Lathiat | infinity: please make it really easy for me to right click it and say "Stop network-manager from managing my devices" and then after that have it have a "Start managing my devices again" | 08:08 |
| tseng | infinity: well, the applet doesnt start | 08:08 |
| Lathiat | if you did that, i'd love you forever | 08:08 |
| tseng | infinity: so i cant much test it anymore | 08:09 |
| jdub | infinity: thom and i had a long discussion about integration with ifupdown and resolvconf a while back; pretty sure he wrote notes about it | 08:09 |
| infinity | jdub : I'll pester him. | 08:09 |
| jdub | infinity: oh, and it was related to making n-m work sanely :) | 08:09 |
| tseng | infinity: just sortof extra boggled as there are people who upload to ubuntu who never show their face in the community | 08:09 |
| infinity | jdub : Speaking of working sanely, why has no one made the obvious leap to use nscd, instead of switching from one nameserver to another? | 08:10 |
| jdub | tseng: ian has just started; he's a well known debian developer :)| | 08:10 |
| infinity | tseng : He's a new hire. He's also the original dpkg author. | 08:10 |
| tseng | jdub: cheers. | 08:10 |
| \sh | doko: is hplip build-depending on python-qt3? or on python-sip4-qt3? | 08:10 |
| Lathiat | infinity: im told nscd is evil, but i have nothing to base that on | 08:10 |
| jdub | infinity: dunno, though there are some strong technical/emotional opinions about nscd. | 08:11 |
| infinity | Lathiat : It's not perfect, but neither is running a local nameserver. | 08:11 |
| Lathiat | \sh: i saw an upload with a changelog sayign that was removed | 08:11 |
| jdub | infinity: (the original reason for using bind was that it was very configurable wrt multiple networks and name lookups) | 08:11 |
| Lathiat | infinity: but it affects mroe than just dns? | 08:11 |
| jdub | infinity: (nscd and resolv.conf doesn't quite solve that) | 08:11 |
| infinity | jdub : I don't dig the idea that a machine with NetworkManager installed can't have a nameserver installed (well, unless you ask the nameserver not to bind to localhost)... Kinda ick. | 08:11 |
| Lathiat | infinity: it can | 08:12 |
| Lathiat | infinity: network-manager starts its own bind9 | 08:12 |
| \sh | Lathiat: thx...I should read first -changes then irclogs ,-) | 08:12 |
| Lathiat | with its own config file | 08:12 |
| Lathiat | the problem is | 08:12 |
| Lathiat | it just blanket installs bind9 | 08:12 |
| Lathiat | and so bind9 runs as normal as well | 08:12 |
| infinity | Lathiat : Yes, but still on port 53. | 08:12 |
| infinity | Lathiat : Run your own instance, boom. | 08:12 |
| Lathiat | that needs to be sorted somehow if we're gona use bind9, tho i hear theres plans to use dnsmasq | 08:12 |
| Lathiat | infinity: but it binds to localhost | 08:12 |
| jdub | infinity: are you on the networkmanager list? | 08:12 |
| tseng | ian attempted to make it use resolvconf | 08:12 |
| Lathiat | infinity: so i suppose thats a mild issue | 08:12 |
| infinity | Lathiat : the latest packages swapped to dnsmasq, but the same issue survives. You're eating port 53. | 08:12 |
| jdub | infinity: it's worth reading back about this stuff | 08:12 |
| Lathiat | infinity: but it would still listen on your real interfaces which is what you really care about | 08:12 |
| Lathiat | infinity: s/would/wouldnt | 08:13 |
| infinity | Lathiat : You;'d have to hand-configure bind not to bind to localhost, or it'll probably just die on invocation. | 08:13 |
| Lathiat | resolvconf woudl be nice | 08:13 |
| Lathiat | infinity: bind9 will start fine | 08:13 |
| Lathiat | infinity: by default, it binds to * which grabs all it can | 08:13 |
| Lathiat | so if it cant get localhost it wont care | 08:13 |
| jdub | brb | 08:13 |
| Lathiat | resolvconf woudl be nice | 08:13 |
| Lathiat | cus then it can use avahi-dnsconfd :) | 08:13 |
| infinity | resolvconf is what the current (broken) upload was meant to integrate. | 08:14 |
| Lathiat | right | 08:14 |
| Lathiat | so it just needs to be unbroken | 08:14 |
| Lathiat | :) | 08:14 |
| infinity | That doesn't change anything, though. | 08:14 |
| Lathiat | whats the issue with just changing /etc/resolv.conf? thats always seemed to work for me | 08:15 |
| \sh | but a running bind9 for a laptop install with NetworkManager? | 08:15 |
| infinity | Many applications cache resolver requests, so changing resolv.conf on the fly doesn't buy you much, which is why we're still running a local nameserver. | 08:15 |
| infinity | So, resolv.conf always points to 127.0.0.1, and we only update it to update our search lists. | 08:15 |
| infinity | (Which is still not ideal, cause we could be cacheing the search lists) | 08:16 |

| tseng | hopefully the fixer isnt @redhat.com | 08:23 |
| tseng | or rather, they make it poll the file ocassionally instead of binding more of the desktop to dbus | 08:24 |
| infinity | It'll be a cold day in hell before mozilla.org accepts patches to make mozilla depend on dbus, I think. | 08:24 |
| Amaranth | dbus is our CORBA or XPCOM | 08:24 |

| Amaranth | haha | 08:25 |
| Amaranth | dbus is the new one | 08:25 |
| Amaranth | something that sounds cool and gets used way to much | 08:25 |

| Amaranth | seb128: trying to find out why my menus don't update :) | 09:43 |

| seb128 | Amaranth: gamin is b0rked | 09:44 |
| seb128 | I would bet on gamin | 09:44 |
| Treenaks | seb128: will it be fixed before breezy-final? | 09:44 |
| Amaranth | gamin debug log says it never got a request to watch the things libmenu says it's setting up monitors for | 09:44 |
| seb128 | Treenaks: if you send a patch for sure | 09:44 |

| seb128 | oh | 09:45 |
| seb128 | and how is smeg going? | 09:45 |
| Amaranth | i lost all my work :/ | 09:46 |
| seb128 | still an option for 5.10 or you trashed all your changes with your hdd and we should better delay it? | 09:46 |
| Amaranth | well, if 0.7.5 is usable it's an option | 09:46 |
| Amaranth | otherwise i don't think i'll be finishing 0.8 until late august or so | 09:47 |
| seb128 | you are the best placed to know what issues 0.7.5 has | 09:47 |
| Amaranth | well, as long as you have the fixes from pyxdg CVS 0.7.5 has no issues that i know of | 09:47 |
| seb128 | Amaranth: k, good, thanks | 09:47 |
| Amaranth | of course it dies on badly encoded filenames but the spec doesn't define what to do with those and no one on the xdg list seems to want to decide | 09:47 |
| seb128 | you had a patch for this, no? | 09:48 |
| seb128 | can't you just ignore those? | 09:48 |
| Amaranth | the patch silently dropped chars that couldn't be represented in UTF-8 | 09:48 |
| Amaranth | gnome-menus doesn't ignore them | 09:48 |
| Amaranth | it shows them then fails to find them to launch them | 09:48 |
| Amaranth | so no one really knows what to do with them | 09:48 |
| seb128 | I would just ignore these files | 09:48 |
| seb128 | better than crashing | 09:49 |
| Amaranth | i'll work on a patch for pyxdg tomorrow | 09:49 |

| fabbione | Kamion: btw.. did you ever get around to fix debootstrap for sparc or is it still untested? | 10:49 |
| Kamion | fabbione: still untested probably, I've entirely forgotten what bugs you reported in it, if any ... | 10:50 |
| Kamion | ogra: do you use PHP in Edubuntu? | 10:50 |
| ogra | Kamion, ha ha ha... | 10:51 |
| fabbione | Kamion: no, no bugs.. once you told me that debootstrap was going to be broken for sparc and i agreed on it.. i just don't recall us talking about it anymore.. if it needs testing i can do it :) | 10:51 |
| ogra | Kamion, i guess there is not much that more used in edubuntu | 10:51 |
| Kamion | ogra: would it break anything if I merged infinity's change to the Ubuntu seeds that switches from PHP4 to PHP5? | 10:51 |
| ogra | Kamion, yes | 10:51 |
| ogra | :( | 10:51 |
| ogra | many of the packages i use arent switched to 5 yet.... | 10:51 |
| pitti | I thought it was supposed to be backwards compatible? | 10:52 |
| Kamion | fabbione: oh, that needs arch-specific overrides, I can't do that | 10:52 |
| Kamion | ogra: they should depend on php4 then | 10:52 |
| ogra | (moodle, mediawiki (which just gets packaged in debian, but they told me these pacages wont be php5 compatible)) | 10:52 |
| fabbione | Kamion: so what do we need to do exactly? (other than giving it a shot) | 10:52 |
| pitti | Kamion: the problem is that we actually intended to demote php4 to universe once we have php5 in main | 10:52 |
| Kamion | ogra: if those depend on php4, it'll be fine | 10:52 |
| Kamion | pitti: not my problem | 10:52 |
| ogra | Kamion, but those will have to move to main | 10:53 |
| Kamion | fabbione: try it, report a bug with what breaks | 10:53 |
| fabbione | Kamion: make sense :) | 10:53 |
| ogra | Kamion, which will keep php4 there too | 10:53 |
| Kamion | ogra: I think the seed merge will be fine actually, as long as the dependencies are correct it won't break anything in itself | 10:53 |
| ogra | ok | 10:53 |
| Kamion | it's only changing the supported seed | 10:53 |
| ogra | fine then :) | 10:54 |
| Kamion | I need to merge the installer and casper seeds which is a later patch to ubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com/seeds--breezy--0, which is why I ask :) | 10:54 |

| Kamion | fabbione: at least powerpc is going to be fixed before breezy, I hope? | 11:43 |
| JaneW | hi sivang | 11:43 |
| fabbione | Kamion: yes yes.. they are fixing them on a daily base | 11:44 |
| === sivang continues with patching desktop apps for lp-integration. Weekend are just plain fun :) | ||
| fabbione | Kamion: but they are asking the differnet $arch maintainers to assign the proper numbers... | 11:44 |
| fabbione | Kamion: Package lib64gcc1 is not installed. | 11:44 |
| fabbione | Kamion: that's needed for sparc bootstrapping.. | 11:44 |
| Kamion | fabbione: right, that's part of the arch-specific overrides problem | 11:44 |
| fabbione | Kamion: ok.. do i need to ask elmo to do something? | 11:45 |
| Kamion | because powerpc also has lib64gcc1, but it isn't needed in base there | 11:45 |
| fabbione | nope.. but we have nothing in 64bit userland for ppc :) | 11:45 |
| Kamion | fabbione: technically yes, but it's "implement a bunch of hard stuff in katie", it's not "flip this switch" | 11:45 |
| sivang | Kamion: does that mean that bootstrapping ppc always occurs in 32bit mode ? | 11:46 |
| Kamion | I can just bump lib64gcc1's priority and accept the bloat on powerpc I guess | 11:46 |
| Kamion | sivang: of course | 11:46 |
| fabbione | Kamion: how much will ppc bloat? | 11:46 |
| Kamion | debootstrap has no concept of "mode" | 11:46 |

| fabbione | Kamion: well we are like talking 100KB on ppc or an entire arch out of the game | 11:47 |
| fabbione | 100KB are doable... | 11:47 |
| Kamion | yeah, one second while I run germinate for powerpc | 11:47 |
| fabbione | thanks | 11:47 |
| sivang | fabbione: do you recall I asked you about the bu that rpevented booting on pSeries, where can I read about what it was and how it got fixed? | 11:48 |

| fabbione | sivang: the installer problem we had was missing drivers in the .udeb | 11:52 |
| sivang | fabbione: a couple of weeks ago I tried booting the install image under one of my LPARs, and was unable to get into the grub prompt | 11:52 |
| fabbione | if there are other bugs i don't know | 11:52 |
| fabbione | there is no grub on ppc... | 11:52 |
| sivang | fabbione: ah ok, do you have it in debian bts or something? | 11:52 |
| Kamion | fabbione: actually, I don't get it, lib64gcc1 doesn't show up in jessica output | 11:52 |
| sivang | fabbione: sorry, yaboot :) | 11:52 |
| Kamion | fabbione: can I demote libc6-sparc64 to priority optional? what breaks if I do that? | 11:52 |
| sivang | fabbione: still need to adjust to the arch specifics | 11:52 |
| fabbione | sivang: the bug was ubuntu specific.. we readded the drivers to the udeb.. that's it | 11:53 |
| sivang | fabbione: ah cool, which drivers were those? | 11:53 |
| fabbione | Kamion: one second... | 11:53 |
| fabbione | sivang: almost all of them. | 11:53 |
| fabbione | Kamion: libc6-sparc64 depends on lib64gcc1; however: | 11:53 |
| fabbione | Kamion: i think there is quite a bunch of stuff that Depends: libc6-sparc64 | 11:54 |
| Kamion | fabbione: right, libc6-sparc64 is the only thing that needs it, and nothing else in base Depends: libc6-sparc64 | 11:54 |
| Kamion | fabbione: nope, hardly anything | 11:54 |
| Kamion | fabbione: does anything need it but not state a Depends? | 11:54 |

| sivang | fabbione, Kamion : well, thinking about that you uncovered a missing udeb problem, I think that's not the actual cause of what I was experiencing unde the LPAR, since it never even got to the yaboot screen, so that's probably have to do something with the image layout , or something else more low level | 12:49 |
| pitti | JaneW: it still makes a difference? it's the same upstream version now | 12:50 |
| davyd | does anyone know about Breezy/AMD64 something in GTK+/GLib being broken? | 12:50 |
| fabbione | sivang: can you please file a bug with details? | 12:50 |
| pitti | GTK BOOG! :-) | 12:50 |
| fabbione | sivang: i don't even understand what you mean by not arriving at yaboot.. did the installer actually worked? or it didn't do anything? | 12:50 |
| Kamion | sivang: the missing udeb thing was just this morning's CDs | 12:50 |
| Kamion | and not getting to yaboot has zero to do with udebs | 12:50 |
| fabbione | Kamion: meh well not really... | 12:50 |
| fabbione | Kamion: the i told sivang about the missing drivers inside the udebs | 12:51 |
| sivang | fabbione: yes, when I booted the LPAR, I just got straight away a msg from the firmware "no operating system installed" | 12:51 |
| sivang | Kamion: right | 12:51 |
| sivang | Kamion: that's why my conclusion | 12:51 |
| Kamion | fabbione: that can't possibly be sivang's problem either, his machine almost certainly just doesn't support yaboot | 12:51 |
| davyd | pitti: what sort of bug? | 12:51 |
| fabbione | sivang: before or after the installer????? | 12:51 |
| sivang | Kamion: no it does, SLES9 and RHEL3 do boot | 12:51 |

| pitti | trulux: ping | 01:31 |
| Kamion | ogra: it's one preseed, netcfg/disable_dhcp=true, which is documented in the installer boot screens, press F7 at the isolinux prompt | 01:34 |
| Kamion | ogra: want that switched on for Edubuntu then? | 01:34 |
| ogra | Kamion, yep, i assume having the machine standalone is the more common case... and i'd like to avoid seeing a errormessage | 01:35 |
| Kamion | ogra: surely this is only for the server? | 01:35 |
| Kamion | not clients? | 01:35 |
| ogra | Kamion, the ltsp server is the default... | 01:35 |
| Kamion | ogra: yes, and debian-cd has a non-server config | 01:36 |
| ogra | not for the standalone workstation install though | 01:36 |
| ogra | oh, that needs to change then too | 01:36 |
| Kamion | why? the workstations should default to DHCP I'd've thought | 01:36 |
| ogra | but in other news edubuntu daily from yesterday seems to install fine :) | 01:36 |
| ogra | Kamion, the Ws should use dhcp, the server not... but the server should be the default | 01:37 |
| ogra | currently the WS install is only thought for teachers to run the setuo at home... | 01:38 |
| ogra | setup | 01:38 |
| ogra | also the hostname should default to edubuntu, but thats marginal | 01:39 |
| Kamion | ogra: right - I've changed the server config to default to manual network configuration; please file a Bugzilla bug against debian-cd to get the Edubuntu default changed to server | 01:39 |

| aigarius | ok | 03:03 |
| fabbione | aigarius: but ok :) | 03:03 |
| fabbione | hmm | 03:04 |
| fabbione | how much does it on average an incremental backup? | 03:04 |
| aigarius | 5-10% of a full backup | 03:04 |
| aigarius | I am thinking that I could just define a max_days_between_full_backups config option | 03:05 |
| fabbione | i would say an incremental to run at night via crontab or on request | 03:05 |
| fabbione | and a weekly full as default | 03:06 |

| carstenh | aigarius: how do you ensure that the same package-version are installed after restoring a full backup? | 03:15 |
| aigarius | carstenh, you can check out my progress at http://koyanet.lv/soc/ . It is a bzr repository, but you can also get the latest version with you browser. | 03:15 |
| aigarius | carstenh, I backup "dpkg --get-selections" | 03:16 |

| aigarius | carstenh, a full restore is kind of a special case scenario. the usual use is backup/restore of a single file or a subdir. | 03:17 |
| carstenh | aigarius: ah, ok | 03:17 |

| aigarius | carstenh, it would be pretty hard to restore to a specific version if that is not the latest in the repository | 03:18 |
| carstenh | aigarius: yes, ubuntu is iirc missing something like snbapshot.d.n | 03:19 |
| ogra | hughsie, edit all occurences of hoary to breezy in the file /etc/apt/sources.list... | 03:19 |
| hughsie | is that it? then do an apt upgrade? | 03:19 |
| aigarius | hughsie, X is quite broken in breezy, so better don't :) | 03:19 |

| Kamion | not hours | 03:21 |

| ogra | hughsie, most likely days... daniels said something about next week... | 03:21 |
| hughsie | ogra: okay, thanks. is apt clever, so i did sudo apt upgrade libnotify if would do all the rest? | 03:22 |
| hughsie | of is breezy a development snapshot | 03:22 |
| hughsie | (shouldn't be asking q's like this in devel, sorry) | 03:22 |
| ogra | hughsie, on breezy, yes... if you do such things in hoary, it will pull in the dependencys | 03:22 |
| Kamion | (a) the command is apt-get not apt (b) you use 'install' to upgrade single packages, not 'upgrade' | 03:22 |

| hughsie | ogra: great. just as i though linux didn;t need antivirus | 03:29 |
| ogra | it should work... if not, kick daniels to fix it :) | 03:29 |
| hughsie | ogra: cool :-) | 03:29 |
| ogra | there is no distro that ships a newer X then breezy... daniels is working also upstream.... | 03:30 |
| seb128 | tseng: crash what/when? | 03:31 |
| hughsie | i was listening in on your firefox discussion yesterday. whats ubuntus policy on backporting? fc seems to be "upgrade to latest" as it's simplest | 03:31 |
| seb128 | tseng: update cairo/pango/gtk and restart your app ... if that still crash backtrace is welcome | 03:31 |
| tseng | seb128: firefox | 03:31 |
| tseng | seb128: i restarted all of X | 03:31 |
| tseng | after updating | 03:31 |
| tseng | ill get a backtrace later with cairo debug | 03:31 |
| seb128 | do you have the backtrace and the assertion of what you get on the crash? | 03:31 |
| seb128 | k | 03:32 |
| tseng | the assertion is the same | 03:32 |
| tseng | firefox-bin: cairo.c:86: _cairo_error: Assertion `status > CAIRO_STATUS_SUCCESS && status <= CAIRO_STATUS_FILE_NOT_FOUND' failed. | 03:32 |
| tseng | Aborted | 03:32 |
| ogra | hughsie, yes, we do this too now, we just changed the policy, since the upstream patches for FF are not easy backportable... | 03:32 |
| hughsie | ff tend to update other stuff in a release i've noticed | 03:32 |
| tseng | consider that to be a rare exception | 03:32 |
| === OculusAquilae [~bastian@p548D0773.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| tseng | not a precedent to changing the rules | 03:33 |
| ogra | hughsie, before we had a policy to just backport security related stuff to avoid new bugs through new features... | 03:33 |
| hughsie | gotcha, thanks. | 03:33 |
| seb128 | tseng: k, let me know if you get a backtrace | 03:33 |
| tseng | seb128: ok. | 03:33 |
| hughsie | so you guys are going to want me to branch CVS ideally when I release 0.2.0 g-p-m? | 03:33 |
| hughsie | at the moment i tent to just have one release (CVS!) | 03:33 |
| ogra | hughsie, when wil that be ? | 03:34 |
| ogra | 0.2.0 i mean | 03:34 |
| seb128 | tseng: does anything out of firefox crash? | 03:34 |
| hughsie | few weeks at this rate | 03:34 |
| tseng | seb128: not yet | 03:34 |
| seb128 | k, so maybe a firefox issue | 03:34 |
| tseng | seb128: im using alot of other stuff | 03:34 |

| ogra | i think so... except you want to roll out a tarball release during the next days while we wait for dbus | 03:36 |
| ogra | then i'd take the tarball | 03:36 |

| ogra | seb128, do you have a bug about missing transparency for png's in firefox already ? | 03:42 |
| ogra | seb128, ah, nm, its not ff, its the screenshooter that produces them like that already | 03:43 |
| seb128 | ogra: I don't maintain firefox | 03:44 |
| seb128 | I don't have bugs about firefox | 03:44 |
| ogra | seb128, isnt the maintainer the last one who touched it ? ;) | 03:44 |
| Treenaks | ogra: so now IE7beta supports transparent PNGs, but firefox doesn't anymore? :P | 03:45 |
| \sh | lol | 03:45 |
| ogra | seb128, but the prob isnt ff as i said... my gnome-screenshooter seems to produce them without transparency | 03:45 |
| seb128 | k | 03:45 |
| ogra | i.e. a big black border | 03:45 |
| \sh | ogra: use gimp | 03:45 |
| ogra | \sh, mm, wil that fix the bug... ? | 03:46 |

| ogra | i just wanted to know if its a known bug already.... | 03:48 |
| daniels | Kamion: can we please move xterm to universe? i can't be arsed maintaining it. | 03:48 |
| seb128 | ogra: how outdated your gnome-utils is? | 03:48 |
| \sh | daniels: no ways...xterm belongs to X like steven jobs belongs to apple | 03:49 |
| \sh | steve even | 03:49 |
| daniels | \sh: so find someone to maintain it ... ? | 03:49 |
| daniels | \sh: i don't use it myself and we already have a terminal emulator in main | 03:49 |
| ogra | seb128, a bit :) 2.11.1-0ubuntu1 | 03:49 |
| seb128 | ogra: that's probably it | 03:49 |
| ogra | yep | 03:50 |
| \sh | daniels: what must be done for xterm? | 03:50 |
| seb128 | try with current one | 03:50 |
| ogra | i was suspecting that | 03:50 |
| ogra | seb128, i'll do, thanks | 03:50 |
| daniels | \sh: someone to keep on top of the bugs, to deal with new usptream versions, and to deal with ishikawa mutsumi in debian and get the debian and ubuntu packages synchronised. | 03:50 |
| daniels | \sh: although ishikawa might be handing over to branden robinson, so you may have to deal with it. | 03:50 |

| Kamion | daniels: we clearly shouldn't move it to universe; it is widely used | 03:54 |

| seb128 | daniels: where/how did you get that? | 05:08 |

| hughsie | ogra: ubuntu supports rpm? | 05:25 |
| ogra | hughsie, through alien, yes... but i'd prefer a .deb from the package if i were you | 05:26 |

| hughsie | ogra: okay, just seemed like the coke c.e.o saying "is pepsi okay?" | 05:26 |
| ogra | heh | 05:27 |
| mjg59 | So I have a couple of packages that could do with uploading for Breezy | 05:27 |
| mjg59 | But I don't have upload rights | 05:27 |
| mjg59 | What's the best approach? | 05:27 |
| ogra | alien is a great tool if you cant find any .deb.... but with more then 16000 packages in the archive its seldom that you dont find what youre looking for | 05:27 |

| seb128 | yep, I'm busy with cairo/gtk update today though | 05:30 |
| hughsie | ogra: bah, real men don'e need X. | 05:30 |
| mjg59 | seb128: No problem | 05:30 |
| ogra | hughsie, true... except when they have to build a distro alone that has two critical places that depend on X ;) | 05:31 |
| ogra | (talking about edubuntu) | 05:31 |
| hughsie | ogra: pahh, all i need is a curses xchat replacement ! | 05:32 |
| ogra | hughsie, i doubt i'd make the teachers happy with that ... especially a ltsp install without X is funny :) | 05:33 |
| ogra | mdz, ltsp breaks in xlibs installation currently... | 05:33 |
| mdz | ogra: did you file a bug? | 05:33 |
| ogra | mdz, nope, because next X is due for monday anyway... | 05:34 |
| ogra | mdz, it worked on monday though... | 05:34 |
| daniels | how does it break? | 05:34 |
| ogra | daniels, non informative with "Errors were encountered while processing: ... " no error above that... | 05:35 |
| ogra | i'll investigate a bit more in about 30min... | 05:35 |
| daniels | ogra: should work in -43, but -44 will definitely fix | 05:35 |
| ogra | it might also be the us mirror... the ltsp script defaults to that... i'll try my next ltsp install with archive.ubuntu.com | 05:36 |
| mdz | ogra: there was surely an error above that | 05:38 |
| ogra | wait a sec... its in the other room | 05:38 |
| daniels | mdz: no, not necessarily | 05:39 |
| daniels | mdz: there was a problem (which was only in -42, IIRC), where the last line of xlibs.preinst was test -d foo && bar | 05:39 |
| ogra | nope, no other error... | 05:39 |
| daniels | mdz: test -d foo fails, and the last exit status is 1 | 05:39 |

| ogra | HiddenWolf, i'm talking about breezy | 06:43 |
| ogra | so you probably should take hoary with a server install and install the desktop manually | 06:44 |

| jasoncohen | ogra, hey, i asked yesterday if mozilla-mplayer 2.85 would get into breeezy. 2.85 has been in sid for over a month and it works here. The releases since 2.7 have made signifigant aesthetic changes to the UI and there have also been some features added I believe | 07:18 |
| ogra | jasoncohen, i saw the bug already... | 07:18 |
| Amaranth | what UI? | 07:18 |
| Amaranth | there's a UI? | 07:18 |
| jasoncohen | Amaranth, yes, if you compile with --enable-gtk2 | 07:19 |
| daniels | http://thedailywtf.com/forums/39325/ShowPost.aspx | 07:19 |
| daniels | argh | 07:19 |
| jasoncohen | let me get the bug | 07:19 |
| ogra | Amaranth, yes after the totem plugin mplaye now stars thattoo | 07:19 |
| Amaranth | Can someone translate for me? :) | 07:19 |
| Amaranth | they're doing it because totem got a plugin? | 07:20 |
| ogra | Amaranth, totem plugin has a pause and a fullscreen button | 07:20 |
| jasoncohen | Amaranth, basically, the debian mozilla-mplayer is compiled without gtk2 support so there are no menus or buttons | 07:20 |
| ogra | Amaranth, i guess thats what they added to mplayer too now... | 07:20 |
| jasoncohen | if you compile with gtk2 (the default for mozilla-mplayer), you get a more attractive interferace, buttons, and a menu which you can download the stream | 07:20 |
| jasoncohen | Amaranth, https://launchpad.ubuntu.com/malone/bugs/1598 | 07:21 |
| jasoncohen | i've already packaged a new 2.70 deb with the trivial changes | 07:22 |
| jasoncohen | ogra, would you be opposed to making the change? | 07:22 |
| ogra | jasoncohen, i currently dont have the time for it... but will look into it.. i'm not sure if the current version in multiverse is marillat or sid | 07:23 |
| jasoncohen | does marillat even have mozilla-mplayer? | 07:24 |
| Amaranth | daniels: that is sad | 07:24 |

| Kamion | mdz: I'm thinking that OEMRescue wants to be deferred for breezy | 07:33 |
| mdz | Kamion: given that it's always said that it wants OEMInstaller in place first, and OEMInstaller is getting down to the wire, yeah, I agree | 07:34 |
| Kamion | mdz: OEMInstaller is in plausible shape now (the main problems are ropey UI, not major lacks of functionality), but OEMRescue is going to take a fair bit more development | 07:34 |
| Treenaks | jasoncohen: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CAN-2005-2370 | 07:34 |
| Kamion | so yeah, I'd like to do it right for breezy+1 rather than do a rushed half-arsed job and neglect other higher-priority things | 07:35 |
| jasoncohen | thanks Treenaks | 07:35 |
| jasoncohen | heh, i don't get the debian security team. they fix a big in gadu which affects a miniscule number of people but leave firefox unpatched for weeks | 07:37 |
| Kamion | mdz: sorry the dependent task took so long | 07:37 |
| mdz | Kamion: no problem; rescue was always lower priority | 07:37 |
| Kamion | rescue's pretty heavily debated as well, judging from its comments section ... | 07:38 |
| mjg59 | What C library do we use in the initrd? Any? | 07:40 |
| HiddenWolf | jasoncohen: did they ever make sense? perhaps that gadu bug was just easier. | 07:41 |
| jbailey | mjg59: glibc and klibc right now. | 07:41 |
| mjg59 | jbailey: Both? Eww. | 07:41 |
| jbailey | mjg59: Likely to stay with glibc for breezy. | 07:41 |
| mjg59 | Ah, fine. | 07:41 |
| mjg59 | So usplash doesn't have to be statically linked? | 07:41 |
| jbailey | mjg59: I had hoped to do klibc. It has certain deficiancies. I got a chance to talk to HPA about them at OLS, and they won't be solved in the timeframe we need. | 07:41 |
| jbailey | mjg59: Right. | 07:41 |
| jasoncohen | HiddenWolf, they're probably trying to figure out a way to backport the security fixes from 1.0.5 without breaking firefox which neither Ubuntu or Red Hat could do | 07:41 |
| mjg59 | jbailey: We still need to work out some way to keep the fifo available to it | 07:42 |
| HiddenWolf | jasoncohen: well, good for them. ;) | 07:42 |
| jasoncohen | Debian would never just package the upstream version. Rather than package a new mozilla in woody, they left mozilla 1.0.0 unpatched for over a year | 07:42 |
| HiddenWolf | imho they're just destroying their legitimacy as a rock-solid safe system. | 07:42 |
| jbailey | mjg59: We've been talking about move_mount'ing /dev to the new root partition. If you drop it in there, would it be good enough? | 07:42 |
| mjg59 | jbailey: Sure, that would do | 07:43 |
| mjg59 | jbailey: Any preferences about the name? | 07:43 |
| jbailey | 'kay. I'll backport the patch from Debian's udev o cope with that, then. | 07:43 |
| Treenaks | HiddenWolf: Yes, but don't forget that the mozilla guys are being dicks too | 07:43 |
| mjg59 | jbailey: Ah - that's a point. How early will /dev appear, and will it be writable? | 07:44 |
| jbailey | mjg59: As long as it's low-conflict, I don't care.... usplash-fifo ? =) | 07:44 |
| Keybuk | mdz: #ubuntu-meeting | 07:44 |
| HiddenWolf | Treenaks: I'm not familiar with the details, but I got a distinct impression to that extent, yes. | 07:44 |
| mjg59 | jbailey: If /dev is dynamic, we'll need to create the fifo on boot | 07:45 |
| mjg59 | So we can't really start usplash until it's appeared | 07:45 |
| jbailey | I can mount it right before init-top is run, I guess, to make sure it's available for you. | 07:46 |
| mjg59 | jbailey: Ok, that would work | 07:46 |
| jbailey | mjg59: Are you a C application? Can you just call mkfifo yourself, or do you need /bin/mkfifo ? | 07:47 |
| jbailey | mkfifo(3) rather I mean | 07:47 |
| mjg59 | jbailey: C, so that's not a problem | 07:47 |
| jbailey | Hmm, klibc provides mkfifo anyway, so it's no big deal either way. | 07:48 |

| jbailey | To get vga16b loaded, the best thing is to drop a file called "usplash" that contains the word "vga16b" into /usr/share/initramfs-tools/modules.d | 07:49 |
| jbailey | To start it, drop the shell script that does what you need into /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/init-top | 07:50 |
| jbailey | It needs to optionally accept one argument | 07:50 |
| jbailey | mjg59: Mind if I /msg you with a flood? | 07:50 |
| mjg59 | jbailey: Cool. Go ahead | 07:50 |
| sabdfl | mdz: #ubuntu-meeting for mjg59? | 07:51 |
| Keybuk | quickly! before our net connection drops again! :p | 07:51 |
| sabdfl | *cough* *splutter* did i just see usplash? | 07:51 |
| Kamion | jasoncohen: dude, we didn't package the upstream version until a couple of days ago either. :-) | 07:51 |
| Kamion | previous performance no indicator of future performance, etc. | 07:52 |
| jasoncohen | Kamion, yes, i know | 07:52 |
| jbailey | mjg59: That emulates a dependancy-based init setup | 07:52 |
| mjg59 | sabdfl: Yeah, package ought to be ready soon | 07:52 |
| jasoncohen | Kamion, but ubuntu learned the error of their ways. It's simply too much of a burden to backport security fixes for mozilla/firefox on multiple distros. why do you think warty was never patched? pitti said he spent 40 hours backporting fixes | 07:52 |
| jbailey | mjg59: At the moment it's a hard dependancy. It will soon be a soft dependancy so that if the thing you depend on doesn't exist, it won't worry about it. | 07:53 |
| jasoncohen | that's why debian gave up on woody | 07:53 |
| mjg59 | jbailey: Ok. In this case, do I need to check for anything? | 07:53 |
| mjg59 | Modules will be loaded before I run? | 07:53 |
| jbailey | mjg59: Nope. The snippet that I pasted you will basically just do what you need. | 07:53 |
| jbailey | oo, good question. | 07:54 |
| sabdfl | mjg59: that's awesome news. how does it look? | 07:54 |
| jbailey | This might be before module load. =) | 07:54 |
| ogra | mjg59, congrats for main uploader status :) | 07:54 |
| sabdfl | ogra: fastest confirmation *ever* | 07:54 |
| jbailey | Whups, that's before the modules are loaded. | 07:54 |
| ogra | sabdfl, yep, i followed it... *g* | 07:54 |
| jbailey | mjg59: Will you need anything more in /dev than /dev/console? | 07:55 |
| mjg59 | sabdfl: At the moment? Ugly :) | 07:55 |
| sabdfl | holler if you have specs for the artwork team | 07:55 |
| mjg59 | jbailey: /dev/fb0 - is udev running at that point? If not, then it'll need to be created | 07:55 |
| mjg59 | sabdfl: I've passed stuff on to Jane | 07:55 |
| sabdfl | ok cool, can't wait to see it | 07:55 |
| jbailey | mjg59: It's not. udevstart isn't called until all the modules are loaded. | 07:56 |
| sabdfl | of course, we're all a little scared of breezy over here in chickenpox land, since daniels b0rked keybuk's X :-) | 07:56 |
| jbailey | mjg59: I'm' trying to figure out where to add the hook for you. | 07:56 |
| mjg59 | jbailey: Ok. In that case can you make sure that it exists? | 07:56 |
| mjg59 | Thanks! | 07:56 |
| jbailey | mjg59: Do you want this running before the root file system is mounted? | 07:56 |
| mjg59 | jbailey: Ideally | 07:56 |
| ogra | whee, http://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-users/2005-July/044259.html | 07:57 |
| jbailey | Okay. I have specific premount hooks for when booting off of a local harddrive and when booting off of nfs. I just need to make a generic one. | 07:58 |
| \sh | *yawn* g'evening | 07:58 |
| mjg59 | jbailey: Oh, hrm. I could do with the "open" command. | 07:58 |
| mjg59 | Is that practical? | 07:58 |
| jbailey | that's another 115k. A lighter solution would be nicer if possible. | 08:00 |
| mjg59 | Arh. | 08:01 |
| jbailey | Otherwise, there's no hard limit on i386 for the initramfs. | 08:01 |
| mjg59 | I can probably implement the VT ioctl stuff myself, I guess. | 08:01 |

| \sh | hmmm.. | 08:02 |
| mjg59 | jbailey: Nah, I can probably do it myself. No idea why "open" is that big, though. | 08:04 |
| jbailey | It's the two console-tools libraries that it depends on. | 08:04 |

| === mjg59 digs through the console-tools source | ||
| jbailey | mjg59: To confirm, I'll give you a generic mount hook. The means that you'll be able to hop in after all the modules are loaded, and so after /dev is populated with base system devices (So, no lvm, md, or evms). After that happens, md, lvm, evms, any cryptroot stuff, nfsroot's fetching of an ip address, nfsmount, local mount, etc. happens. | 08:14 |
| \sh | infinito: ping | 08:14 |
| infinito | \sh: hi! | 08:14 |
| \sh | infinito: I just had a quick look on gcfilms | 08:14 |
| mjg59 | jbailey: Ok. So at that point, /dev/fb0 exists. I create a /dev/usplash_fifo, change to a new VT, splash stuff on the screen | 08:14 |
| jbailey | Yup | 08:15 |
| \sh | infinito: and I don't think it's ready to be synced from debian to ubuntu | 08:15 |
| mjg59 | jbailey: After that, things call usplash_write to write stuff to usplash | 08:15 |
| infinito | \sh: why? | 08:15 |
| mjg59 | When we mount the real root, the same fifo exists in the same place. | 08:15 |
| \sh | infinito: it starts out with missing dpatch build-deps | 08:15 |
| jbailey | mjg59: 'kay. Does usplash_write fall back to displaying on the console if usplash isn't running? | 08:15 |
| mjg59 | jbailey: So we don't do any chrooting in this model? | 08:15 |
| mjg59 | jbailey: No, but the model I've assumed is that usplash_write is called in addition to echo | 08:15 |
| infinito | \sh: i know... buff... our version is patched, but the debian dev seems to be missing | 08:15 |
| \sh | infinito: and if I have to change it, then it will get an ubuntu package version stamp and it's not be synced automatically anymore | 08:15 |
| jbailey | mjg59: 'kay. Does usplash_write fail silently if there's no usplash to write to? | 08:16 |
| \sh | infinito: so it has to go to our MOTU Review Process | 08:16 |
| mjg59 | jbailey: Yup, without blocking | 08:16 |
| \sh | infinito: and for that, please join #ubuntu-motu to discuss this | 08:16 |
| infinito | \sh: ok | 08:16 |
| jbailey | mjg59: With an error code? I think I do set -e usually now, so I'd hate to suddenly have the system die because someone didn't have usplash running. | 08:16 |
| mjg59 | jbailey: No, with 0 in that case | 08:17 |

| jbailey | mjg59: What chroot stuff are you thinking of? | 08:17 |
| mjg59 | It'll error if something goes bizarro-wrong | 08:17 |
| mjg59 | jbailey: The usplash process started from initramfs ought to be running until gdm starts. Is it going to have the same filesystem namespace once / is mounted? | 08:17 |
| mjg59 | Hmm. This may be fun :) | 08:18 |
| jbailey | mjg59: We'll have to test it. I don't know what a move mount looks like to a process that's already running. | 08:18 |
| jbailey | So far nothing had been persistant. =) | 08:18 |
| mjg59 | jbailey: It reopens the fifo after every command is written (because it gets closed after the writer disconnects) | 08:18 |
| mjg59 | So, uh. I have no real idea what'll happen. | 08:20 |
| jbailey | Excellent! | 08:20 |
| mjg59 | Possibly it should communicate over unix domain sockets instead, or something. | 08:20 |
| jbailey | Umm, given that you'll have the same /dev in the new place, I suspect it'll be fine. | 08:20 |
| jbailey | Like I see it as two possibilities. | 08:20 |
| mjg59 | But is it the same place as far as an already running process is concerned? | 08:20 |
| jbailey | Either move mounts don't affect currently running processes, in which case you'll have the same /dev you always did. | 08:21 |
| mjg59 | We could do with Al Viro, really... | 08:21 |
| jbailey | Or it'll get move and you see the new filesystem layout, in which case we just need to make sure that nothing writes to the fifo between moving dev and moving / | 08:21 |
| mjg59 | Well, let's go with it as is for the moment and see what breaks | 08:22 |
| mjg59 | jbailey: Ok, looks like I need /dev/tty%d as well. Is that a problem? | 08:24 |

| Kamion | mvo: is the progress number intended to be floating-point? | 09:40 |
| Kamion | I guess that's OK, I'll int() it for debconf | 09:41 |
| Kamion | or s/\..*// anyway :) | 09:41 |
| mvo | Kamion: I haven't really thought about it :) | 09:42 |
| mvo | Kamion: does it work now? | 09:42 |
| === robtaylor_ [~robtaylor@dyn1.sesnet.co.uk] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Kamion | mvo: yep, seems to work fine - I'm pondering the base-config side now | 09:43 |
| Kamion | will have to make sure debconf works sanely if a package wants to ask a question while the progress bar is up | 09:43 |
| Kamion | which will be a little tricky, since unless I'm very careful the debconf database will be locked | 09:43 |
| Nafallo | hmm, is it just me or is those amd64 buildds down again? | 09:44 |
| mvo | Kamion: right, that sounds tricky | 09:44 |
| Kamion | I have a big hack held in reserve in case I can't think of a better solution (run the progress bar inside a debconf frontend that opens everything read-only) | 09:45 |
| === Danten [~danten@h21n8c1o1049.bredband.skanova.com] has joined #Ubuntu-devel | ||
| Kamion | but I can probably make it work with passthrough and a bit of luck | 09:46 |
| mvo | that sounds not too bad to me (also I have virtually no idea about debconf) | 09:46 |
| \sh | debconf is nice :) | 09:47 |
| \sh | and it's nasty | 09:47 |
| === Treenaks knows more things like that | ||
| === mvo has used debconf as a developer, but never hacked on debconf | ||
| Kamion | having commit access to it upstream helps | 09:48 |
| \sh | the debugging mode is totally crap (from a fast debug person point of view) ;) | 09:48 |
| Kamion | hm? I find DEBCONF_DEBUG=developer incredibly useful actually | 09:49 |
| Kamion | but then I speak the protocol ... | 09:49 |
| === Treenaks SLAYS cairo | ||
| Treenaks | HARD | 09:49 |
| Kamion | of course my current project includes a debconf protocol filter and has its own DEBCONF_DEBUG=filter debugging output - that's kind of fun | 09:50 |
| Kamion | work on the installer and you become very familiar with debconf very quickly | 09:51 |
| === mike_douglas [~mjd@70.70.204.152] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| === Nafallo guesses his right :-/ | ||
| wasabi_ | So is there an architecture doc on the new LiveCD infrastructure? | 09:52 |
| wasabi_ | I think I got a grasp on most of it, but there are some changes I want to make. | 09:53 |
| Nafallo | s/his/he\'s/ | 09:53 |
| wasabi_ | Like, disable network config during the dpkg part and move it back to /etc/network/interfaces. | 09:53 |
| \sh | Kamion: yes...it's useful... | 09:55 |
| \sh | Kamion: but a --debug flag would be a nice2have | 09:56 |
| \sh | hmmm...i fixed imms | 09:59 |
| Kamion | \sh: thing is that debconf is invoked all over the place, so an environment variable is really easier to use | 10:01 |
| Kamion | mvo: hmm, tricky, apt closes all of its fds when forking | 10:02 |
| Kamion | or rather, sets them close-on-exec | 10:02 |
| HiddenWolf | I've got a very ancient laptop on my hands, and I get a very verbose error starting up alsa. How can I figure out what it is? are you interested in the bug, or not? | 10:02 |
| === sabdfl [~mark@sabdfl.silver.supporter.pdpc] has left #ubuntu-devel [] | ||
| mvo | Kamion: yes, this anoyed me too a lot | 10:03 |
| Keybuk | can we pull devscripts 2.9.x from unstable? | 10:04 |
| Kamion | maybe some configuration directive that tweaks the lower bound to mark close-on-exec? | 10:05 |
| Kamion | a bit hackish, but ... | 10:05 |
| mvo | I have the feeling that mdz will not like that. but some way to have more control over what fds will be closed and which will kept open would be really good | 10:06 |
| === winkle [~winkle@lgh3814234.vittran.norrnod.se] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| mvo | but we would need to come up with a clean way | 10:08 |
| mvo | (but it has my total support) | 10:08 |
| Kamion | it's certainly a showstopper for using passthrough from inside apt | 10:09 |
| Kamion | mdz: any thoughts? | 10:09 |
| \sh | Kamion: yes I know... | 10:09 |
| mdz | Kamion: could pass a bitfield saying which FDs should stay open | 10:11 |
| mdz | a la select(2) | 10:11 |
| Kamion | bitfields from shell? | 10:11 |
| mdz | shell? | 10:12 |
| Kamion | base-config is shell ... | 10:12 |
| mdz | I only saw from this forward: Kamion mvo: hmm, tricky, apt closes all of its fds when forking | 10:12 |
| mdz | a configuration option listing file descriptors to preserve seems doable | 10:13 |
| mvo | mdz: yes, a way to tell apt not to close it's fds would be cool | 10:13 |
| Kamion | oh, ok. the background is that I want to be able to use the debconf passthrough frontend while installing packages, in order to be able to have a debconf frontend displaying a progress bar while simultaneously not causing any packages that try to use debconf to fall over in a heap | 10:13 |
| Kamion | (because the debconf database would be locked | 10:13 |
| Kamion | ) | 10:13 |
| HiddenWolf | ogra? | 10:13 |
| mdz | Kamion: apt configuration already has lists; I'd say a configuration item list of file descriptors would be the way to go | 10:14 |
| mvo | mdz: something like a list "APT::Interal::KeepFDs" ? | 10:14 |
| mdz | we could use that in place of the internal hack too | 10:14 |
| Kamion | mdz: that would work for mee | 10:15 |
| Kamion | er, me | 10:15 |
| mdz | just APT::KeepFDs I'd say | 10:15 |
| === zwnj [~behnam@81.31.160.199] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| mdz | or it could stop closing file descriptors altogether | 10:15 |
| mdz | it's not necessarily its business | 10:16 |
| mvo | mdz: rock, I'll work on this tonight or tomorrow morning. it makes my life in synaptic easier too :) [stop closing is fine with me too] | 10:16 |
| mdz | I'm not sure what the original rationale was; that code is old | 10:17 |
| mvo | there are quite a few spots where I really would like to hear from jgg what the rational was (Iterator::_dummy() comes to my mind) | 10:18 |
| hughsie | ogra: got a minute? | 10:19 |
| Kamion | yes, I could cope with it not closing fds; it's not on a security boundary so I don't see a good reason for that | 10:20 |
| Kamion | hmm | 10:20 |
| Kamion | I wonder if anything expects to be able to use hardcoded file descriptors | 10:21 |
| Kamion | thinking of maintainer scripts that do 4<foo or whatever | 10:21 |
| Kamion | it's sometimes hard to avoid that in shell, although you can just pick a higher number | 10:21 |
| Kamion | should be fine as long as they don't use debconf within such loops, though, and such code is fragile anyway ... | 10:22 |
| mdz | I like the idea of apt providing a fairly sanitized and sanity-enforced environment for dpkg to run in | 10:24 |
| mdz | but I don't have a specific case to back it up | 10:25 |

| mdz | highvoltage: I am desperate for testing and feedback; I don't think anyone but me and ogra have tried it | 10:36 |
| highvoltage | mdz: i'll also be installing a copy on my laptop, so i'll take it to a tuxlab, unplug a server and see how it works from my laptop. | 10:37 |
| highvoltage | mdz: i feel bad for not giving you feedback yet, but i'll give you lots of feedback. i just had a real tough past 3 weeks. | 10:38 |
