sivangseb128: I tried removing all the config.sub and .guss from the 12_autotools patch of gnome-panel, cdbs-edit-patch let me edit the patch this time, however, still no go at building the package afterwards12:11
seb128what happens?12:11
lamontj12:12
lamontEWIN12:12
seb128Riddell: I'll do the split patch tomorrow and send it to the Debian guy to know if he's ok with it12:18
seb128sivang: what is the error?12:18
Riddellseb128: thanks12:18
seb128np12:18
sivangseb128: sec, I noticed that I didn't kill all of the config.sub/guess stuff from the patch after all, do you have an automated way to do that? (through gaim maybe)12:19

seb128nop12:19
sivangseb128: plain manual? :)12:20
=== camilotelles [n=Camilo@20132139198.user.veloxzone.com.br] has joined #ubuntu-devel
sivangseb128: ok, trying to other approach, why the panle_addto stuff is missing when I drop autotools patch entirly and recreate it aftere applying all other patches manually?12:21
seb128yep12:21
sivangseb128: (that's the only error I get when dropping the former 12_autotools and recreating it)12:21
seb128how do you create this patch?12:21
sivangseb128: I get the src pkg, rm debian/patches/12_autotools , cdbs-edit-patch 12_autotools, autoconf, rm -rf auto4mate/ , exit 012:22
seb128that's not an autoconf patch12:23
seb128that's an autotools one12:23
seb128the add to panel changes modify the Makefiles12:24
seb128aclocal, automake, etc are used12:24
sivangok then, can I readd the 11_lpi_autoconf patch? 12:26
sivang(in order to seperate the two and not mess with the 12_ one)12:27
seb128no12:27
seb12812_ also update the configure12:27
seb128that would be wrong to have 2 patch doing that12:27
mdzseb128: it only affects users who choose a very specific combination keyboard layout and options, and it doesn't make the system useless if it breaks12:28
mdzogra: I don't know anything about gcompris; I gave 15706 to you12:28
seb128mdz: very specific is english and any layout using a group 3 (ie: most of non-english languages)12:28
seb128ie: use a de, fr, da, .. keyboard and try to add a en one12:29
seb128but luser probably don't have 2 different layout configured, right12:30
ogramdz, yes, the question is, if i should follow upstreams suggestion to rather upgrade than fix it (the reporter is one of the upstream guys) i know a handfull of missing icons, but i dont know how many hidden bugs are there, apparently he tested the 7.0 version since a while on ubuntu (he's regulary in #edubuntu)12:31
seb128still quite an annoy regression imho, and we have got a bunch of bugs about that12:31
seb128s/oy/oying/12:31
danielsmdz: if 'hoary regression' is critical, as my inbox seems to be telling me, then this is critical12:32
=== sebest [n=chatzill@sebest.ovibes.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel
sivangseb128: so , again, do I clean config.sub, config.guess, config.guess-cdbs and config.h.in from the patch? which ones should I leave inside?12:32
seb128sivang: mail me the lpi patch, I'll update the autotools one and upload12:32
mdzdaniels: a hoary regression from a functional system to a non-functional system is critical; hoary->breezy upgrade failures are critical12:33
mdzdaniels: breezy has a bug that hoary doesn't have isn't automatically critical12:33
danielsmdz: 'xlib doesn't support my locale' is allegedly neither of those two12:33
mdzogra: new upstream versions at this time are pretty insane12:33
danielsmdz: certainly no more than 'xkb doesn't support my layout'12:33
seb128daniels: use "french layout with english configured as second" and you get a desktop with no theme, no icon, etc12:34
danielsseb128: ouch.  you should totally handle that more robustly.12:34
mdzdaniels: perhaps I misunderstood the locaale bug.  what is the functional impact on affected programs?12:34
seb128daniels: g-s-d "just crash" as specified by the bug12:34
seb128and it tries to restart12:34
seb128it does that like 10 times and then stop trying12:34
seb128and you have a broken desktop12:34
danielsmdz: depends on how they're written.  likely just non-localised strings.12:34
danielsseb128: nice12:35
seb128if you are lucky, sometimes it crashes gnome-session with it12:35
ogramdz, ok :)12:35
seb128and you have just a gdm screen :p12:35
mdzdaniels: broken localization means, for many users, that they become unable to use their computer12:35
danielsmdz: (which to me seems no more critical than a keyboard layout which bears utterly no relation to what's on the keycaps.)12:35
danielsmdz: broken keyboard means, for many usres, that they become unable to use their computer12:35
danielsmdz: ranging from 'i can't do accents', to 'how the fuck do I even type my username on this thing'12:35
mdzdaniels: "have to use layout foo instead of foo,bar" != "broken keyboard"12:35
seb128mdz: it makes GNOME unusable for non-english people setting an extra english layout12:35
mdzdaniels: how about we stop arguing about it and you fix the bug?12:36
mdzdaniels: you seem to have only 3 critical bugs at the moment and one of them has a trivial fix12:37
danielsmdz: for many users, layout foo vs layout foo,bar, is an unusable keyboard12:38
danielsmdz: and if the fix was actually that trivial, it would be uploaded by now.  but it isn't.  so it's not fixed yet.12:38
mdzdaniels: the fix for bug 15770 is trivial and it's been open for two days12:39
danielsmdz: as in, neither of the bugs we've been talking about12:39
mdzdaniels: <mdz> daniels: you seem to have only 3 critical bugs at the moment and one of them has a trivial fix12:40

mdzI didn't claim that the xkb bug was trivial; it's obvious from the bug log that it isn't12:40
danielsthere we go, 15770 fixed12:40
danielsnow where were we?12:40
mdzwe were at the part where you actually upload it12:40
danielsno, we're beyond that part12:41
mdzthank you12:41
danielsi live to give12:41
mdzso what's the deal with #13724 (the xlib locale thing)?  is that specific to certain locales?12:42
mdzI haven't seen it myself, but it seems to be fairly common for upgraders12:43
danielsas the title says, non-UTF-8 locales12:43
mdz_all_ non-UTF8 locales?12:44
danielsyes12:46
mdzseb128: setxkbmap -layout fr,us works fine for me here.  as the title says, it seems to only happen when that option is also in use, and that option doesn't seem to be a default anywhere I've looked. is it?12:48
seb128mdz: setxkbmap work, setxkbmap -print | ... doesn't 12:48
danielsmdz: welcome to the land of non-obvious failure modes12:49
mdzseb128: so -print | xkbcomp is what GNOME does?12:49
seb128yep12:49
danielswell, ish12:50
mdzdoes that have some other effect beyond what setxkbmap <blah> does?12:50
danielsbut effectively12:50
danielsyes, it's less shit12:50
mdz...12:50
danielsi'd rather not explain xkb internals at this point12:50
seb128mdz: "setxkbmap -layout 'fr,us' -model pc105 -option '' -option 'grp:alts_toggle'12:50
seb128-print | xkbcomp - :0.0" is what GNOME does12:50
sivangseb128: with some more bits of concentration I made it. I am now testing the build, if it's nice, I will upload source and you review, and if all fine we upload?12:51
seb128k12:51
sivangseb128: I appriciate the offer from before, but everytime you are helped, you don't learn things :-)12:51
mdzseb128: can we get g-s-d to not crash when this happens?12:51
seb128mdz: hum, make it robusts to libxklavier crashers ... I'll give it a try12:52
seb128mdz: but that will give a silent keyboard breakage for users12:53
seb128ie: they will get a default layout instead of what they configured12:53
=== Bicchi [n=Bicchi@adsl-065-006-167-199.sip.mia.bellsouth.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel
mdzseb128: they get that anyway; but currently they also get a crash, right?12:54
seb128right12:54
danielsthis is a hillarious intersection of: xkb parser problem (somewhere in libxkbfile), x server problem (not dealing with xkbcomp bombing properly in the setmap request), gnome problem12:54
seb128daniels: how GNOME? :)12:55
danielsthe former is *really* hard to solve properly.  the second I can solve really properly but not without being very invasive.  the latter is SEP so I don't care.12:55
danielsseb128: no matter what I feed you, g-s-d should not crash12:55
danielsseb128: similarly, the X server shouldn't ever bomb, no matter what sort of weirdo crack it gets from a client12:55
seb128I agree12:56
=== Simira [n=rpGirl@214.84-48-74.nextgentel.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel
seb128but as just said, then you would get a silent (or not) layout breakage12:56
seb128ie: user would get default config instead of what they configured12:56
seb128which is not really nice neither :/12:56
mdzright; we have a bug open about it12:57

seb128daniels: has "grp:alts_toggle" to be the default?01:01
=== shackan [n=shackan@host163-46.pool8261.interbusiness.it] has joined #ubuntu-devel
seb128daniels: maybe we can change that to workaround the crasher01:01
danielsseb128: it's not the default, no01:01
seb128daniels: it is, and that's what makes it crashing01:02
danielser01:02
seb128"If you look at 'fr', you'll see the default variant includes01:02
seb128'level3(ralt_switch)'"01:02
seb128daniels: http://listserv.bat.ru/xkb/Message/880.html01:02
danielsi just grepped for alts_toggle over /etc/X11/xkb and ~/canonical/xorg/monolith/xorg-6.8.2/debian, it's not the default :P01:02
danielslevel3(ralt_switch) != grp(alts_toggle)01:02
seb128graa01:03
danielslevel3(ralt_switch) -> altgr switches to level 3 (i.e. shift on crack)01:03
=== Bicchi [n=Bicchi@adsl-065-006-167-199.sip.mia.bellsouth.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel
danielsgrp(alts_toggle) -> both alt keys together change groups (think: layouts)01:03
seb128hum,yeah, we want altgr for that01:03
danielsright01:03
danielsso the problem comes when you combine those two -- when you have a layout that uses altgr for third level, and both alts together to change groups01:03
seb128daniels: but "-option 'grp:alts_toggle'" is used by default ..01:05
seb128maybe we can't ride that of that01:05
seb128that would workaround the crasher01:05
danielsmaybe alts_toggle is used by default in gnome, but not in X01:05
seb128s/can't/can/01:05
seb128yeah, that's what I'm saying01:05
danielsoh01:05
seb128"setxkbmap -layout 'fr,us' -model pc105 -option '' -option 'grp:alts_toggle'01:05
seb128-print | xkbcomp - :0.0" is what g-s-d calls01:05
danielsright01:05
danielsbut is that by default, or only when you select 'alts together toggle group'?01:06
seb128would dropping the "-option 'grp:alts_toggle'" be an issue?01:06
danielswell, it would mean that there's no way to switch between french and us layouts :P01:06
danielsctrls_toggle or altshift_toggle (or whatever it is) work also01:07
danielsbut the problem is matching what people coming from windows and/or os x expect01:07
seb128I usually click on the applet to switch :)01:07
sivangseb128: http://muse.19inch.net/~sivan/lpint/gnome-panel/ , phew ;)01:07

sivangLathiat: ah cool :)01:09
Lathiati asked the same thing last week ;)01:09
seb128daniels: I don't have any option selected to switch groups, that probably the default one01:09
danielsseb128: nah, you have to provide your own option to switch groups if you want it01:10
danielsseb128: you don't get a default group-switching option01:10
seb128-option 'grp:alts_toggle' is specified by g-s-d here01:10

Keybuk*boggle*04:03
TreenaksKeybuk: that almost sounds like  s/Slackware/Gentoo/04:03
TreenaksKeybuk: or they really suck04:04
jbaileyFor a one-person project, the update to a new kernel and all the detection tools as well as a glibc update is a pretty big deal.04:04
Treenaksjbailey: slackware is not a one-person project and hasn't been for a long time.. afaik04:05
KeybukTreenaks: yeah, it is04:05
KeybukPatrick is basically the only guy doing anything with it04:05
TreenaksKeybuk: it is?04:05
jbaileyAh really? I thought it was with all the fuss about him getting sick, and what would happen to slackware then?04:05
Keybukis just odd to think that most of us "newbies" probably started off with Slackware04:06
Keybukcertainly it was the only real distro to choose when I started04:06
jbaileyminilin then slackware.04:06

pittiDiziet: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30718504:21

pittiargh, Thunderbird is vulnerable, too04:21
pittiDiziet: oh, no04:22
pittiDiziet: we fought with backporting single patches far too long to do that again04:22

pittijbailey: will it ever be ready? :-)04:28

danielspitti: there are patch systems which don't destroy your sources, and also don't require tarball.mk :P04:28
jbaileypitti: It's usable now.04:28
pittioh, cool04:28
jbaileypitti: It just is missing testsuite stuff.04:28
danielspitti: also, srcdir != objdir works fine for multi-builds04:28
danielspitti: i do that for libx11, e.g.04:28
jbaileyIt's tempting to just deploy it. =)04:28
dholbachdaniels: it doesnt require tarball.mk :)04:28
pittidaniels: right, I'm still waiting for wig&pen support in dpkg-source04:28
danielsdholbach: no, no, it does.04:29
danielspitti: dude, dpatch04:29
dholbachdaniels: which one?04:29
danielsdholbach: simple-patchsys04:29
dholbachdaniels: it doesnt04:29
danielsdholbach: it requires one of tarball.mk, or deleting your entire working tree fifty times for every revision04:29
jbaileyMy dislike of dpatch mostly comes from having to twiddle to get -p flags right when it should just autodetect it for me.04:29
pittidaniels: dpatch is ugly and it does not prevent source destrucion in any way (unless you use it with a tarball)04:29
danielsthis is actually a large part of the reason that I ignore simple-patchsys04:29
jbaileyIs the autodetection?04:30
danielspitti: simple-patchsys does not deal with failure, full stop04:30
jbaileysimple-patchsys should unwind better, yes.04:30
danielspitti: dump a patch which doesn't quite apply into debian/patches, bam, watch your entire tree now become horribly wedged and not work without hand intervention04:30
danielspitti: otoh, I don't think I've ever managed to wedge a tree with dpatch04:30
jbaileyI have. =)04:30
pittidaniels: that's where tarball will clean up04:30
jbaileyBut mostly with bad -p munging.04:30
danielspitti: my claim is that if your patchsys relies on a dbs-alike system, it's horribly broken04:31
jbaileyIt doesn't rely on it, there's simply a bug.04:31
pittidaniels: sure, if you don't like it, nobody stops you from using dpatch or quilt with cdbs04:31
jbaileyDoes dpatch have cdbs integration now?04:31
pittidaniels: given that simple-patchsys was more indended to be a demo than something working, it works pretty well for me04:31
jbaileyI know that quilt does.04:32
danielsjbailey: i'm bitching about simple-patchsys, not cdbs04:32

danielss/jbailey/pitti/04:32
pittidaniels: sure, I know :-)04:32
jbaileydaniels: Right.  But simple-patchsys' failure to unwind is a bug, not a design flaw.04:32
jbaileydaniels: It has all the stamp files, it just needs to unwind over those *before* deleting, them not after.04:32
danielsjbailey: dpatch's md5summing is well worth looking at, too04:33
jbaileydaniels: Ah, cool.04:33
jbaileydaniels: I'll ask you for tips when I get that far with cdbs2.  Mostly I've had trouble wanting to hack on build systems in my evenings, y'know? =)04:33

janimoKamion, I am not advocating that then, but I became curios: does the apcid being put into /etc/mkinitrd/scripts affect archs which don't have acpi?05:13
janimoit's a find |xargs so if no acpi drivers are found no harm is done05:13

pittibddebian: well, I will update mozilla to 1.7.12 tomorrow07:26
ogramdz, so it can go from ltsp-build-client it seems07:26
mdzogra: why did you add it to the edubuntu server seed?07:26

Kamionno we don't need to add it to ship in Ubuntu07:28
zygahmm will breezy get the new icon theme?07:28
bddebianpitti: Yeah they are built for 1.6.something07:28
zygaI've just stumbled upon it07:28
zygait's quite nice07:28
bddebianpitti: That's what I thought07:28
pittibddebian: oh, we should have more current ones07:28
ograKamion, ah, yes, it was pulled in as dependency...07:29
pittibddebian: for the more current ones (1.7.x) it is enough to loose the dependencies to make them installable07:29
mdzKamion: the CD should contain everything ltsp-build-client needs07:29
mdzbut if it's already gone I suppose I need to  unbreak ltsp-build-client07:29
Kamionogra: no, it shouldn't be on the breezy CDs at all07:29
pittibddebian: but it takes some time to do that (easy, though)07:29
Kamionmdz: it's been gone for ages; I would like to fight for every scrap of space I can07:29
bddebianpitti: I'll do it but I won't know if they "work", but they will build ;-)07:29
dholbachi need do some last-minute-shopping - brb07:29
Kamionthough I realise it's small07:30
pittibddebian: just relax the version constraint in the mozilla dependency07:30
pittibddebian: the 1.6.x ones should be kicked07:30
ograchanging it in ltsp-build-client is trivial07:30
Kamionthe change is well over a month old though07:30
pittibddebian: or synced from Debian if sid has a recent version07:30
mdzKamion: then we should revisit emacs and thunderbird07:30
mdzwhich in my opinion are entirely out of scope for ship07:30
bddebianpitti: No newer versions in Debian :-(07:30
mdzthat is a seriously non-trivial amount of space07:31
Kamionmdz: happy to, but I thought I'd lost the thunderbird argument07:31
ogramdz, ubuntu already has mayn thiderbird users, you'll piss them off...07:31

mdzsure07:31
mdzbut I suggest we move it from ship to supported and keep it in main07:32
mdzalong with emacs07:32
=== ogra is happy that he doesnt need to think about such things for edubuntu... its dropped there since the beginning
bddebianpitti: Sorry, you say that the 1.6 ones should be dropped from the archive or just update the dep version to the newer Mozilla?07:32
pittibddebian: the 1.7.x should be dependency-updated to make them installable with any 1.7.x; 1.6.x should either be updated to 1.7.x (with debian syncs, possibly) or kicked07:33
mdzpitti: 1.0.7 of what?07:33
bddebiankicked == dropped?07:33
pittimdz: firefox07:34
mdzpitti: surely you're joking07:34
pittibddebian: yes07:34
pittimdz: hm?07:34
mdzpitti: for breezy?07:34
pittimdz: yes, just read it on b-changes07:35
mdzwho approved it?07:35
mdzKamion?07:35
pittiwell, we are discussing this since weeks...07:35
Kamionno, I assumed it was already approved since nobody asked07:35
mdzdiscussion is one thing and upload is another.  we are in a freeze.07:35
Kamionbut I wasn't paying attention due to colony release bits07:36
pittimdz: uh, sorry07:36
=== jdub pulls out the dry ice.
mdzDiziet: ping07:37
pittimdz: I thought we agreed to doing new upstream versions for mozilla foo?07:37
=== jdub sprays liberally.
mdzpitti: there is only one standing exception for upstreamversionfreeze, and that is GNOME07:37
Kamionhowever the prevailing opinion seemed to be that it was too hard to extract the relevant patches, so I'm not sure what else I could've said had people asked07:37
mdzKamion: you could've referred them to me07:38
Kamionmdz: well, I would have done07:38
mdzok :-)07:38
KamionI don't take decisions about firefox :-)07:38
Keybuk"firefox, scary, run away!"07:38
mdzmjg59: how big is this slmodem stuff, in terms of CD space?07:38
Kamionbut, sorry, should've been paying attention earlier. I assumed that since there was apparently a standing exception for new upstream versions of firefox in *stable releases*, that it must be OK for breezy07:39
=== pitti assumed the same
=== Nafallo joins in on this assumption
=== ogra was wrong too often with hos assumptions to join here
mdzthat would be a fairly reasonable assumption07:41
ogra*his07:41
mdzif in fact there were such a standing exception07:41
Kamionaha07:42
jduband if that were its real name07:42
mdzI only recall taking a decision on 1.0.607:42
Kamionhmm. recriminations aside, what now?07:44
mdznow we wait and see and hope it isn't a fuckup07:44
mdzand if it is, we back it out like in Warty07:44
pittimdz: so in terms of fixing stables, I start to backport tomorrow?07:44
Kamionwell, Colony 5 is waiting on today's kernel upload, which is pending RSN07:45
mdzpitti: I didn't realize you were expecting to push every new firefox release into -security.  is it already impossible to patch 1.0.6?07:45
pittimdz: depends on how much we want to do07:45
mdzKamion: and will take hours to build07:45
pittimdz: I already patched the hyphen vuln some time ago07:45
mdzwe ought to do kernel uploads on wednesdays07:45
Kamionso there's time for firefox 1.0.7 to build and be in the install CD side of that at least, which means it should get good visibility07:45
pittimdz: the other vuln (shell injection) isn't hard to patch, either07:45
Kamionmdz: I don't expect to get an early night tonight07:46
mdzpitti: but you were going to push 1.0.7 implicitly anyway?07:46
pittimdz: but 1.0.7 contains a whole bunch of undocumented patches to "fix regressions in 1.0.7 and add stability patches", and it's next to impossible to backport them07:46
pittimdz: well, I had started to build 1.0.7 for warty and hoary and test it for a day, yes07:47
mdzwe don't generally backport random bugfixes07:47
pittimdz: right, but they fixed regressions introduced in other security patches07:47
Kamionas Diziet observed, it's hard to tell what crasher bugs fixed in 1.0.7 could also be security bugs07:47
pittithat's why I would have liked to test them first before starting to backport07:47
mdzDiziet's observations aside, he needs to follow the release guidelines like everyone else07:47
Kamionso that would require some analysis07:47
pittibut backporting the one outstanding vuln is fine, too07:48
Kamionmdz: I'm talking more about what should be done now than about what should have been done earlier07:48
=== cassidy [n=cassidy@f1-pc174.ulb.ac.be] has joined #ubuntu-devel
pittimdz: sorry, then I had a totally wrong assumption; /me erases the exception from his mind07:49
=== otavio is now known as otavio[off]
mdzpitti: it's certainly possible if you feel that it's the best approach, but it does require discussion and approval07:50
DizietWooah, scrool.07:50
mdzon a case-by-case basis07:50
pittimdz: ok, noted07:51
=== Kamion goes for dinner
KamionI'll upload debian-installer and leave it to dep-wait on the new kernels07:51
Dizietmdz: Are you suggesting that we ought to try to read the diff between 1.0.6 and 1.0.7 to try to decide (a) which changes fix security problems and (b) whether we think the change is correct ?07:52
pittiDiziet: no, this way madness lies, unless you truly understand the code07:53
DizietBecause I don't think that we can find a sensible and comprehensive list of what security fixes are included and we also will probably not find out if any new bugs in 1.0.6 get discovered later.07:53
pittiDiziet: if we backport, then only the critical security patches, which are documented in the changelog07:53
Dizietmdz: Of course if there's some release rule that I'm breaking then that's bad and we should talk about it.07:54
mdzDiziet: as regards the security update, there's a discussion to be held about it07:54
DizietBut I thought Kamion was entitled to authorise updates ?07:54
mdzDiziet: as regards the breezy upload, yes, that broke a rule07:54
KamionDiziet: I am generally, but was not aware that this needed authorisation07:54
mdzDiziet: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BreezyReleaseSchedule07:54
Kamion14:30 < Diziet> pitti: Yes, I'll update firefox.  I assume this is cause for an exception ot UVF ?07:54
Kamion14:31 < pitti> Diziet: yes, we have a general exception for that even for stable releases (if we test everythign properly, etc.)07:54
Kamionthe certainty in pitti's statement led me to assume it had already been approved07:54
pittiDiziet: right, I just learned that this rule was not as general as I remembered07:55
Dizietkamion: Quite so.  I'm not sure I make a distinction between `person who is authorised to make exception to rule makes exception' and `that person thinks rule does not apply or has standing exception'.07:55
Kamionsince pitti's not normally in the habit of breaking UVF without checking first07:55
DizietBut I'm sorry for any misunderstanding.07:55
pittinot for non-mozilla stuff, right07:55
DizietSo let's talk about both breezy and the security update.07:55
KamionDiziet: (I think you were acting in good faith)07:55
Kamionanyway, got to go07:56
DizietOK, TTFN.07:56
Dizietmdz: So, then, obviously my current opinion is that we should take the new upstream into warty, hoary and breezy.07:57
pittiat least we have an option this time, unlike the 0.9.3->1.0.6 upgrade, where we were basically forced to do the jump07:58
mdzDiziet: yes, Kamion has explained how the misunderstanding happened07:59
DizietOh, good.07:59
DizietSo let's get on to the meat of the question.07:59
infinitymdz : Is cron.daily failing and/or running eternally?08:00
mdzinfinity: dunno08:01
infinitymdz : I'm waiting on uploads of 1/2 hours old, respectively, to show up in wanna-build.08:01
pittiDiziet, mdz: my proposal: we backport the patch for the single major vuln now for stables, and if more things arise, we can still update stables to 1.0.7; at that time we have better testing of 1.0.7 in breezy08:01
DizietWhat makes you think there's only this `single major' vuln ?08:02
mdzDiziet: because Mozilla has finally acknowledged that they need to tell the community about vulnerabilities08:02
mdzpitti: you're on their new list now,  right?08:02
pittimdz: yes, on mozilla-security@ or sth similar08:03
mdzpitti: security-announce08:03
mdzwhich is different from security-group, which you may be on08:03
pittimdz: I asked them to grant me access to embargoed bugs, and I have now08:03
pittisecurity-announce@mozilla.org, right08:03
DizietThe website is rather short of detail.  You have more information than is in the 1.0.7 release notes ?08:04
Robot101and we thought Theo was bad :P08:04
mdzpitti: ok, good08:04
pittiDiziet: there are not even MFSAs for the things fixed in 1.0.7, let alone bug xrefs08:04
mdzrather than using the existing lists shared by all open source projects for this purpose, they decided to create another list of their own08:04
pitti(yet)08:04
DizietSo do you have a list of the things fixed ?08:05
mdzbut at least they are going to make announcements08:05
=== blueyed [n=daniel@iD4CC1BAF.versanet.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel
mdzpitti: if you don't have a list, please ask the security group for one08:06

DizietAnd, for all the things on their list, how can you tell whether they're vulnerabilities ?08:07
pittimoment, please08:07
DizietCan you show me this list or is that forbidden ?08:07
Diziet-anarres:upstream> grep -v '^Only' 1.0.6-1.0.7.diff | wc -l08:08
Diziet297308:08
DizietI'm reading that diff now.08:08
DizietLooking at it I'm pretty sure it has fixes for other vulns in it but my knowledge of the code is not sufficient to decide for certain for each included patch.08:09
infinitymdz : Meh, cron.daily definitely seems confused... A bunch of binaries uploaded by the buildds have never hit "installed" either.08:09
DizietI applied it to warty and hoary and it applies cleanly apart from the fact that it includes our existing security fix.08:09
DizietWhich strongly suggests it's full of fixes that we need.08:10
DizietI'm also fairly convinced that some evil person reading the same diff will see it as a rich mine of possibilities.08:10
pittiDiziet: http://people.ubuntu.com/~pitti/MFSA2005-57.html08:10
pittiDiziet: this is the one we have already fixed08:11
mdzinfinity: wanna-build is running right now08:11
pittiDiziet: http://people.ubuntu.com/~pitti/MFSA2005-58.html08:11
pittiDiziet: these are the other issues08:11
infinitymdz : As in "just started again", or "is still running"?08:11
mdzinfinity: started at :1008:11
pittiDiziet: this does not include the shell injection, though, which is also fixed in 1.0.708:11
infinitymdz : Hrm.  Curious.  Did you have to nudge it?08:12
infinitymdz : Cause it's very obviously not run (well, not COMPLETED) for hours.08:12
Dizietpitti: Right, the IDN fix is the one that I saw we'd already applied.08:12
pittiDiziet: I'm fairly sure that we want the other fixes in 58 as well08:12
Dizietpitt: Um, isn't that secret ?08:12
DizietI mean your draft MFSA.08:12

DizietOK, up to them what their rules are I suppose.08:13
infinitymdz : Huzzah.08:13
infinitymdz : Time to page elmo, I guess.08:13

DizietI'm not sure what you're demonstrating but obviously if you think it's OK to publish it then fine, I'll just take your word for that.  I don't know about their processes.08:14
mdzinfinity: it claims to have processed the d-i source upload08:14
mdzand isdnutils08:15
mdzin the last run08:15
DizietSo do we know if this is a complete list of changes in 1.0.7 ?08:15
infinitymdz : Interesting. Does it claim anything about l-r-m in previous runs? :)08:15
pittiDiziet: should be, but they did not state that08:15
pittiDiziet: they sent a long a 30K tar.gz with all patches, which is just the cvs diff between 1.0.6 and 1.0.708:15
DizietYes, well, I can make that for myself, can't I ?08:16
pittiDiziet: right08:16
DizietWhat are we supposed to do, read it ?08:16
pittiDiziet: I remove the HTML again, in case they object to it08:16
pittiDiziet: we are supposed to upgrade to 1.0.7, according to them08:16
infinitymdz : l-r-m, nvidia-settings (source) are definitely not processed, a random ancient binary upload I looked at (lm-sensors) was also stuck (unless it's in NEW..)08:16
mdzinfinity: just an hppa l-r-m binary upload in NEW08:16
mdzl-r-m is stuck in accepted08:17
Dizietpitti: Yes, but it would be nice to be able to decide that for themselves.  What is this, Micro$haft or Free Software ?  They should provide us with the support to help us make that decision.08:17
Diziets/for them/for our/08:17
infinitymdz : Right.  That's about what I thought.08:17
mdzinfinity: it's an elmo situation08:17
pittiDiziet: many folks asked them for a very long time, and they won't help us to backport08:17
pittiDiziet: we can get the patches they applied, but that will only help us for e. g. 1.0.6->1.0.708:18
pittiDiziet: we totally failed to apply 1#0.5 patches to 1.0.208:18
infinitymdz : Can you page him for me?  I'm off to bed, so don't really want to stay up explaning the breakage when he comes and asks. :)08:18
pittiDiziet: and even more so to 0.9.308:18
DizietThere is at least one lot of fixes in that code that look security-related but don't look like one of the ones in that MFSA.08:18
pittiDiziet: right, there is the shell injection fix which was not mentioned in the mfsa08:18
Keybukmjg59: about? :p08:18
infinitymdz : He's requested to be paged about stuff like this, though (and it's not exactly an oddball, middle-of-the-night time, so I don't feel too guilty)08:18
mdzpitti: but 1.0.6 is what we have in both warty and hoary now, right?08:18
DizietThere's no point us simply mechanically applying the 1.0.6->1.0.7 patches individually.08:18
pittiDiziet: this one is crucial08:19
pittimdz: right08:19
DizietThe only reason to do that would be if we thought we might want to leave some of them out.08:19
pittiDiziet: only if you choose only some of them08:19
DizietRight.08:19
DizietBut if the only way to do that is to read the diffs I might as well read the whole damn diff.08:19
pittiDiziet: you can also go though the bug reports, once they become public08:20
pittibut that will last for 14 days08:20
pittiand we don't want to leave open critical holes like the ones fixed open for so long (again)08:20
mdzinfinity: yeah, done08:21
DizietI've nearly finished reading this diff now.08:21
DizietThere's a change to the startup script.  Do you know what that is ?08:21
pittiDiziet: no, at this time I know less than you about the code08:21
DizietRight.  It looks like a fix for shell quoting problems.08:22
pittiDiziet: at least it looks like that they did not add new features this time08:22
pittiDiziet: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=195796 <- this is the quoting patch08:23
Dizietpitti: Yep.08:23
DizietShame there's four copies of that damn script.  Oh well.08:24
DizietOK, I've reviewed the whole diff.08:24
mdzpitti: you added openoffice.org-debian-files to the main inclusion wiki page, but it seems to already be in breezy/main08:24
Dizietmdz: I've looked at the 1.0.6 to 1.0.7 diff and:08:24
pittiDiziet: any new features?08:24
pittimdz: oh, doko asked me to ack it again, but it's a no-ob anyway (it was in hoary)08:24
pittimdz: we apparently need it for smooth upgrades to breezy08:24
DizietI wasn't able to convince myself that all of the changes were correct.  But they all look like security changes and nothing seemed wrong.08:25
mdzpitti: there's nothing to ack if it's already in main :-)08:25
mdzDiziet: good, thanks for reviewing it08:25
Dizietwasn't able to convince> Because of lack of context.08:25
pittimdz: so much the better :-)08:25
DizietI could go and check but that would take quite a bit longer because I'd have to actually understand each bit of code properly.08:25
DizietCertainly nothing resembling a new feature and the biggest changes are the ones which correspond clearly to the descriptions of security fixes in the MFSA.08:25
DizietSo on that basis I'm now completely convinced that we should move to 1.0.7 immediately for all releases.08:26
mdzDiziet: we don't need to convince ourselves that everything is correct, but that they're meeting our expectation of conservativeness08:26
DizietRight.  We'll, I'm certainly convinced of that.08:26
mdzDiziet: because in the past, they have not08:26
DizietI see.08:26
DizietWell they've done what looks like a reasonable job here.08:26
pittiDiziet: good, it seems they finally reacted to the complaints about new features in earlier 1.0.x08:27
Diziet(It's a shame that there's no coherent and complete list of the changes.  That's the only thing they could have done better.)08:27
pittiDiziet: I assume they will publish the MFSAs soon08:27
pittiDiziet: these usually contain xrefs to bugs08:27
Dizietmdz: So what else do you need to approve it into {warty,hoary}-security and breezy ?08:27
mdzDiziet: the reason we're so paranoid about new upstreams is that they are unpredictable08:28
mdzmost of them are undisciplined when it comes to releases08:28
pittiDiziet: the problem at 1.0.2 -> 1.0.5 was that these patches in the bugs caused regressions, and they did not document the patches that fixed these regressions08:28
mdzthey'll break compatibility, introduce disruptive new features, etc. and call it a bugfix point release08:28
pittiDiziet: I applied all the patches manually, wiggled them into the older source and got something totally unstable08:28
Dizietmdz: Right.08:29
mdzDiziet: it's a bit late for breezy as the source is already in the archive, but for warty and hoary it should get the usual battery of testing from pitti, which I understand he's already started on08:29
pittimdz: I plan to do it tomorrow, I fixed langpacks today08:29
mdzpitti: !08:29
mdzpitti: fixed as in ready for upload?08:30
DizietDamn, my test build of the warty version has failed too.  And I've got too few machines.08:30
pittimdz: my statement above was in the conjunctive08:30
pittimdz: well, I examined the new tarball08:30
Dizietpitti: You've got some testing to do ?08:30
DizietIn which case, where should I send my .dsc and .diff.gz ?08:30
pittimdz: it looks almost good; it is just out of date (will be fixed soon) and introduces regressisons (macros in strings are not validated)08:30
DizietThey're ready except I haven't been able to do a test build and install yet.08:30
mdzpitti: so not ready, then08:31
pittimdz: no, by fixing I meant preparing langpack-o-matic for the import and add workarounds for some Rosetta bugs08:31
mdzpitti: oh, fixed langpack-o-matic rather than fixed langpacks ;-)08:31
pittimdz: yes, sorry08:31
mdzpitti: speaking of which, you need to train someone else on langpack-o-matic08:31
pittimdz: I just thought about that today08:32
pittimdz: once Rosetta export actually works, I'd like to show the mechanics to somebody08:32
pittimdz: right now it's  much manual hacking when we create the archives ourselves08:32
pittimdz: at UBZ would be a good opportunity08:32
KeybukI smell a BOF ;)08:33
mdzpitti: it's on my list for UBZ08:33
mdzalready08:33
pittithat would be nice08:33
pittiphysical contact is better for training08:33
pittimdz: since mozilla and tbird have the same fixes, I assume the same arguments apply to them?08:34
Dizietpitti:  My packages are at  http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~ian/d/08:34
mdzpitti: yes08:35
mdzargh, this #ubuntu-unregged thing is very irritating08:35
Diziet(the hoary version is just arriving now)08:35
pittiDiziet: I meant that last time I actualyl used the new hoary and warty packages for a day before I released them08:35
DizietOh, right.08:35
pittiDiziet: I can test tbird and moz, can you test ffox?08:35
Keybukubuntu-unregged?08:35
DizietI thought mdz meant you had some kind of testing arrangements.08:36
pittiDiziet: oh, good that you show them to me - we need to fix this version number mess08:36
pittiDiziet: no, just plain dpkg -i and using it :-)08:36
pittiDiziet: for moz and tbird we did the right thing and named them 0ubuntu0.4.10 and 0ubuntu0.5.408:36
DizietVersion number mess ?08:37
pitti0.5.04 even08:37
DizietDoes it matter ?08:37
pittiDiziet: 0.0.1 vs 0.1 and so on08:37
DizietThat's somewhat nicer, true.08:37
pittiDiziet: it doesn't really matter, but we should aim for consistency08:37
pittiDiziet: we found this solution after we updated ffox already08:37
DizietOK.  Well we'll do that next time.  I don't want to faff with repackaging these huge files now.08:37
pittiDiziet: oh, it's just a change in the changelog and debuild -S -sa?08:38
=== Hirion [n=Hirion@p5487FAAC.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel
Dizietpitti: Yes, but it's quite slow on ffox.  Maybe my machine is too slow but I don't want to add faff to a security update.  Faff = delay (while we sort it out) and risk (we are more likely to make some stupid mistake).08:39
pittiDiziet: ok08:39
DizietLooks like I won't get this done today at this rate.  I have to stop soon or I won't get any dinner.08:40
pittiDiziet: ok, so can you run both versions for half a day to check them?08:40
DizietWell, I can give them a brief test.08:40
pittiDiziet: running them in an actual warty and hoary dchroot is necessary08:40
DizietBut I can't `use' them like I normally do my browser and if I could it wouldn't be a good test because I'm _so_ weird about how a browser has to behave.08:41

pittiDiziet: last time I had trouble with language packs, but I think I fixed them once and for all08:41
Dizietpitti: I have a warty install here and I'm going to have a hoary one soon too.08:41
pittiDiziet: I run them in dchroots, works fine08:41
DizietYeah, but what are testbed machines for ? :-)08:41
pittisure, if you have some, even better :-)08:42
DizietI don't like giving the chroot my X display :-).08:42
pittiDiziet: no need to release them today, one day of proper testing should be done08:42
DizietIs there an easy way for me to get the build infrastructure to produce .debs for people to test ?08:43
pittiDiziet: just build them?08:43
pittiDiziet: alternatively you can upload them, and I toss you the debs from the buildds08:43
DizietIWBNI I could generate them in the colo.  Saves on uploading and also my warty install isn't quite ready yet.  I didn't know until just now I'd need it.08:43
pittiDiziet: however, if something goes wrong, that requires a reupload08:43
DizietWhat, if I upload these to warty-security, the buildds will build them but they won't get published ?08:44
pittiDiziet: right08:44
DizietThat would be just right.08:44
pittiDiziet: they will land in my approval queue08:44
DizietAnd mdz isn't going to object to doing it like that ? :-)08:44
pittiDiziet: alternatively you can do one test build on concordia08:44
pittiDiziet: oh, as long as I don't release the files, we can always supersede or remove them 08:45
DizietNo, I'm pretty confident of these.  I don't think a reupload will be needed unless I patched a wrong patch in the wrong direction or something.08:45
pittiDiziet: but you should do at least one successful build08:45
DizietOK.08:45
pittiDiziet: concordia's hoary dchroot has the b-deps08:45
DizietI've built it on breezy.  My warty system is currently slurping security updates ...08:45
pittiok08:45
pittiDiziet: well, as I said, I will make the debs accessible for you for testing once they built08:46
DizietRight.  OK, I'll set the upload going now then and pick up the .debs in the morning.08:46

Keybukjdong: you should never see a file overwrite warning, if the package causes one it's buggy and needs either a Replaces, Conflicts, or both added10:21
Keybuktwo packages can't both own the same file10:21

Keybukif bar Replaces foo, you won't and the file will be owned by bar10:22
Keybukif bar Conflicts foo, then foo needs to be removed first10:22
Keybuk--force-overwrite is like a Replaces10:22
ograbut more evil :)10:22
Keybukbut this means that when you remove bar again, the file is _removed_ and not left on the disk10:22
Keybukwhich may not be what was intended10:23

ograjdong, ah, ok, i think its all about w32codecs, i just looked again...10:23
Keybukso thought needs to be put into it to decide whether it's a Replaces, a Conflicts or whether the file needs to be renamed10:23
jdongkeybuk: yeah, but when users install 3rd party packages, it shouldn't completely break APT and need command line intervention. There should be some smarter way built into APT or Synaptic to handle this case10:23

\shsivang: marvel yukon2 drivers ... (sky2 is the name of original linux drivers, sk98lin are the syskonnect drivers for this NIC)11:53
sivanguh ha11:53
sivang\sh: wireless NIC?11:53
\shsivang: no..wired11:53
sivangogra: true :)11:53
\shsivang: but it means to me, that I can netboot the portege r200 without tweaking the installer initrd ;)11:53
sivangKeybuk: I wouldn't touch his kbd afterwards though :-D11:53
sivang\sh: :-)11:54
sivang\sh: use it as a thin client or plain net boot for fun?11:54
\shand I can stop tweaking the modules dir of the running system11:54
\shsivang: the r200 is a slim device without a cd/dvd drive ;)11:54
sivang\sh: cool11:54
