[06:38] mdz : I need an opinion on #14991 [06:38] mdz : (apache2 security update broke svn+ssl+clientcerts) [06:39] mdz : The reason it broke is because the users were (unintentionally) relying on the very bug we fixed. The "feature" they were using was one that apache never actually had. [06:39] does it affect ubuntu? [06:39] mdz : Yes, it affects us, including the security updates we did for Warty and Hoary. [06:39] Is it possible to get the debuggin-output(stdout/err) from an applet? (The network-monitor reports disconnected, but the network works fine) [06:40] infinity: what's the one-line summary of the breakage? [06:40] mdz : Now, I have a patch to add that feature (thus fixing the regression), which I will upload to breezy. But should we care about the regression in warty/hoary, or just leave it as-sis? [06:40] mdz : Having a mixed read-only/read-write SVN repo that uses SSL client certs for authentication used to work, no longer does. [06:41] infinity: can I see the patch?

[06:44] mdz : Basically, requests with bodies have never been able to trigger an SSL renegotiation, but that precise feature is required to allow mised read-only/read-write SVN (and several other use-cases, like a that requires SSL auth for POST, etc). === henriquemaia [n=henrique@cb-217-129-172-176.netvisao.pt] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:45] mdz : It stopped working when we noticed the bug where SSLClientVerify Optional SSLClientVerify required didn't actually work, and the renegotiatoin wasn't being forced. Oops. [06:45] So, fix that, and the bug people relied on for ages suddenly goes away and turns intoa feature request. :) [06:46] hm, why does the (recently synced) libpt-dev have /usr/lib/libpt.so.1.8 symlink? I thought that usually goes in the lib package itself? [06:46] ajmitch : because someone screwed up? [06:47] infinity: probably, and it affects upgrades from the earlier version :) [06:47] infinity: has anyone else rolled it into a security update yet? [06:47] any real-world production environment feedback on the patch? [06:47] mdz : Not sure, I'll poke Joe at RedHat and see if they've fixed the regression. [06:47] brb [06:47] irqpoll strikes again [06:48] mdz : The bug submitter has tested it for me, as well as several people on the apache lists (and a mess of people who've reported the bug in the apache BTS) [06:49] GO FIREFOX!

It's also been rolled into apache trunk and apache 2.2 (waiting on enough votes for inclusion to 2.0 still) [07:03] mdz : TBH, I'm not picky about if we include it in warty/hoary (as no one's reported it in Ubuntu, only in Debian and other dists), and breezy is just around the corner, so in a few weeks, I can tell people who encounter the bug that "it's fixed in breezy"...

I will fix it in breezy today. I'm inclined to believe that the intersection of "people running hoary servers" and "people using this apache config" must be pretty close to zero, or we'd have a bug report or two by now.

[07:14] Diziet: your last firefox upload breaks hoary -> breezy upgrades [07:15] Mithrandir: the only truly sane way is to keep it open [07:15] Mithrandir: but you could resolve it REMIND and then set an at job to remind you to reopen it ;-) [07:16] mdz: could we reopen all bug reports resolved LATER or REMIND after breezy releases?

Does anyone knows how to solve this? (a bug, maybe?) [07:23] Mithrandir: you can drop the priority if you like [07:24] Mithrandir: probably best to just keep it open; Debian will hopefully fix it soon, and we can NOTWARTY it then [07:24] mdz: mhm, I guess so [07:39] mdz : Did Kamion get a chance to discuss lrm and d-i with you? === smurfix [n=smurf@debian/developer/smurf] has joined #ubuntu-devel [07:53] hmmmmm [07:54] <\sh> morning [07:56] <\sh> infinity: ping I just saw your upload of libetpan, why did it compile without complains in my pbuilder then?

[07:57] \sh : Starting the gnutls12 (which we don't have), libgnutls-dev has become a real package, rather than a virtual, hence why it works in Debian.

[08:47] infinity: considering that there's only been 1 or 2 of us working on it in ubuntu til now, I think dapper's still a realistic goal to have the framework all in place [08:47] infinity: although I don't think dapper would ship with a policy turned on by default [08:48] ajmitch : Have you been tracking the patches flowing into debian base in the last month or two? [08:48] yes [08:48] I don't think it should be the highest priority, in enterprise point of view, with what I encounter, SElinux if comes in default install, isn't fully exploited to it's capabilities, and people on FC4 tend to disable it or do nasty hacks to get some software working. [08:48] ajmitch : Cool. Does any of it work yet? :) [08:48] infinity: sure, the patches are pretty much what I've been using here to test === tvo [n=tobi@5354EA9B.cable.casema.nl] has joined #ubuntu-devel [08:49] Yeah, SELinux's complexity is a black mark against it, unfortunately. [08:49] certainly [08:49] writing policy comes close to black magic at times === infinity nods. [08:49] just because programs can do so many weird & wonderful things [08:49] it's on the BOF list for UBZ, anyway [08:50] And due to the (correct) "disallow everything unless I let you do stuff" security model, poeple are likely to get furstrated and just turn the whole thing off, which defeats the purpose. [08:50] so I'll try & bring a useful demo :) [08:50] So it needs to be made a bit more easy to configure, I suspect. [08:50] it's improved a lot in the last year, with modular policy & runtime booleans [08:51] so you can toggle policy in specified areas [08:51] infinity: should probably have some GUI hooks so that each time this happens, a user is offered the possibilty to allow it, translated automatically to the underlying actions that need be taken for that in SELinux [08:51] sivang: that's possible now [08:51] possible to code, I mean :) [08:51] sivang : yeah, for a desktop system, that does seem desiarable. === maradong [n=bhentges@vodsl-4242.vo.lu] has joined #ubuntu-devel [08:51] ajmitch: ofcourse === tvo [n=tobi@5354EA9B.cable.casema.nl] has joined #ubuntu-devel [08:52] ajmitch: that's interesting, I should add this to the BOF Ideas? [08:52] I need to get an SE-enabled server system running and play with it, I guess. [08:52] sivang: sure [08:52] sivang : I doubt the effort would be made to code it, unless an MOTU wants to take up the torch. [08:52] ajmitch: if we do that, we rock the enterprise. I don't think any other distro has somethign like that === vuntz [n=vuntz@volin.imag.fr] has joined #ubuntu-devel === ajmitch would probably put in some work for that [08:52] sivang : But noting it as a "feature we should be on the lookout for" makes sense. [08:53] I'm going to try & commit to a few hours a week at least, if people are open to it [08:53] infinity: sorry, EPRASEERROR due to ENONNATIVESPEAKER :) [08:53] sivang : Which part? ;) [08:54] infinity: the whole sentence :) [08:54] Right. Just ignore it, then. I don't ever say anything worth reading. :) [08:54] heh === infinity heads out to hunt down some sugar.

[09:55] morning daniel :) [09:55] hey jani [09:55] janimo: liblaunchpad-integration0 and liblpint-bonobo0 are already splitted [09:55] hello dholbach [09:55] morning seb [09:55] seb128, but the integration lib needs the app which in turn needs all of them? I just had a cursory look at the sources === highvoltage [n=Jono@196.36.161.235] has joined #ubuntu-devel [09:56] seb128, in this case theoretically gaim should not need the gnome depends right? [09:56] seb128: how do we get by that my wrapper funcs use launchpad-integration itself? [09:56] janimo: I don't care [09:56] janimo: libgnome is quite small [09:57] seb128, it may be quite small but it brings in other gnome dependencies (almost all ) [09:57] sivang: I don't get your question, what wrapper funcs? [09:57] janimo: that's far from beeing true [09:57] seb128, I have bare X installed + xfce [09:58] raahhh, people are never happy [09:58] I'll get some coffee [09:58] later [09:58] seb128: laterz [09:58] when I tryp installing gaim it brings in bonobo,gnomeui,gamin,gconf2 [09:58] gnomevfs etc === carlos [n=carlos@243.Red-83-47-24.staticIP.rima-tde.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel === zyga [n=zyga@2-mi2-1.acn.waw.pl] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:00] seb128: never mind, stupid quesiton :) [10:01] sivang, any docs on lpi besides the wiki page and the source? [10:01] janimo: not that I know of, sorry [10:01] janimo: it's a trivial lib [10:01] janimo: it's really simple though [10:02] I'll read though it see if I can come up with more meaningful questions or even solutiones re my problem [10:02] morning [10:04] ping siretart [10:04] mvo: pong [10:05] seb128: as a side note, gaim is not a bonobo app right? [10:05] siretart: can you still reproduce #14077 on one of your machines? would you be able to test a updated version of u-n? [10:05] sivang, not or it wouldn't work on windows I guess [10:05] and before lpi it did only depend on gtk [10:06] mvo: does language-selector still need hacking? [10:06] mvo: I'd love to, but I don't have access to the affected machine right now [10:06] sivang: no, and it doesn't use the bonobo lib neither [10:06] mvo: and it could take until thursday until I see my dad again :( [10:06] zyga: good question, did you find a bug :) I had hoped that my latest upload resolved most issue [10:07] janimo: I'm not that happy with patching the apps for lpi neither, but I've not taken this decision [10:07] 09:58 < janimo> when I tryp installing gaim it brings in bonobo,gnomeui,gamin,gconf2 [10:07] siretart: ok, thanks. it's a anoying bug because I was never able to reproduce it on one of my machines [10:07] janimo: if you can come with a better design or code of the lib and send a patch you are welcome [10:07] seb128: how come it pulls in bonobo when he tried to install gaim? [10:08] installing the lib install "launchoad-integration" which Depends on libgnome2-0 which grabs gconf, gnomevfs, etc [10:08] mvo: the UI needed some small changes if you remeber [10:08] mvo: I was also confused. My dad came to my and was also very confused. I'm very proud of him that he found himself that killing u-n solves the issue for him [10:08] mvo: unfortunatly synaptic still has that small issue I've told you about (and patched) [10:09] zyga: yes, synaptic needs a update [10:09] seb128 k [10:10] zyga: sorry, what was it in language-selector again? [10:10] sivang, seb128 yes that was my initial question, if lpi can be more granular so gaim can depend only on lpi_gtk not lpi_bonobo [10:10] it is granular [10:10] there is 2 libs [10:10] one gtk and one bonobo [10:10] I'll go back and dig since this would be nice for xubuntu [10:10] what grabs libgnome is the part which start the browser [10:10] it uses gnome-open [10:11] seb128 oh but that could surely done easier not? [10:11] buttons were very non-HIG [10:11] some direct exec or something ? [10:11] seb128: we could seperate the python scripts from launchapd integration ? [10:11] gnome-open gets the default browser from your GNOME/gconf config [10:11] zyga: the buttons are changed to "close/apply", wasn't that what you suggested? [10:11] seb128: then each lib in turn would have to have it's execing functions, currently liblpint-bonobo uses the fire up function from launchpad-integration [10:12] mvo: it seems better now - I've just had a look at it again === sabdfl [n=mark@wbs-146-138-47.telkomadsl.co.za] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:12] zyga: thanks [10:13] seb128: so possibly, copying the calling code from liblaunchpad-integration, into liblpint-bonoo, and making a seperate package to ship the python scripts would relieve lpint-bonobo from using launchapd-integration [10:13] my 2c .. [10:14] janimo: maybe that's what you meant? [10:15] sivang: not a good option imho, what do you win by doing 2 different implementation? [10:15] seb128: I don't win much , I agree. aside from splitting the dependencies [10:15] seb128: It's still code duplication which I don't like === desrt [n=desrt@24.215.14.137] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:15] you don't split any dependency [10:15] the only dep is libgnome due to gnome-open [10:16] if you make some code getting the default browser without it you can change this code for everything [10:16] no need to split === crimsun [n=crimsun@pdpc/supporter/silver/crimsun] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:18] mvo: separate l-s issue, the language and country names - are they pulled from the speciall package to avoid multiple translations? [10:18] could there be a generic open script which checks and if there's a gconf reads from that otherwise uses x-www-browser or something [10:19] morning, jani [10:19] so there would be no direct dep on gnome but would be used if available [10:19] morning daniel :) [10:19] zyga: they are copies from the iso-codecs package. They are not translated before [10:19] mvo: they have to be - countries at least are translated in numerous packages [10:20] I'm not sure about languages [10:20] seb128: ah right, I see that now. === silbs [n=jane@217.205.109.249] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:20] zyga: then rosetta should be able to deal with that, shouldn't it? I would suggest "this was already translated somewhere else"? [10:20] janimo: probably yep [10:21] janimo: still that would be duplicating gnome-open's job, is it that bothering that it pulls those deps in? I reckon the don't take too much space.. [10:21] mvo: hmm true [10:21] sivang, the disk space is the least of the concerns [10:21] janimo: that's trivial to do if(gnome-open) gnome-open ... else non-gnome-call [10:21] mvo: is it possible to get two .pot's (for two domains) from l-s? [10:21] memory footprint and startup time [10:22] those matter more for xfce targetted machines [10:22] janimo: I see [10:22] zyga: why two domains? one for the package and one for the countires/languages? [10:23] seb128 but if(gnome-open) does not imply that there needs to be a dep on gnome-open for it to be called?what is that python or pseudocode? [10:23] pseudo-code [10:23] janimo: you can silently fail if !gnome-open, without depending on it [10:23] so how to detect existence of gnome-open?I thought of checking if there exists a gconf dir [10:23] you can move the libgnome Depends to a Recommend if you do that [10:24] right [10:24] janimo: no need to bother with gconf, if the file is on the disk or not works fine [10:24] janimo: simple file exists checking probably [10:24] mvo: yes [10:25] janimo: we do the same with some gnome-cups-manager enhancment [10:25] I still haven't read the lpi code so where exactly should that check be? [10:25] janimo: I'll find it for you [10:26] which files existence needs to be checked [10:26] zyga: last time I checked rosetta didn't liked two pots in one dir. I would have to create a po and a po-countries dir. pretty ugly :/ [10:26] sivang, thanks do you want to take care of all this (i.e upload) or just point me to the right dir? [10:26] direction [10:27] janimo: as you prefer :) (Acutally I use seb128's sponsering for uploads for the moment) [10:28] well I dont' mind looking myself but I am sure you'd do a better/quicker job [10:28] so your call actually :) [10:28] sivang: how is the firefox lp integration done btw? it misses the new icons it seems [10:29] mvo: that was seb128's work :p :) [10:29] hmm interesting, as ff did _not_ bring gnome in === dand [n=dand@gw.datagroup.ro] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:30] janimo: I'll email you with the details where to look anyhow. let talk afterwards [10:30] sivang, thanks [10:31] mvo: not with lpi, their html/javascript language is nothing like C :/ [10:31] seb128: you used html/javascript for lpi on fifie? [10:32] The whole UI is XML/JS. [10:32] seb128: you hacked it in XUL?

[10:33] (Which would make them available to other skins/themes, too) [10:33] infinity: I've no clue on how to do that and about the firefox code ... but if somebody wants to do it he's welcome [10:33] Note: This is not me volunteering for the task. === mvo thinks infinit just put himself forward [10:33] yeah [10:33] it took my 1 day of work/builds to get the menu items here [10:34] Heh. File a bug and get Diziet to do it. He LOVES hacking firefox, I can tell. [10:34] and I don't intend to spend a week to get how you can use C here and hack XUL [10:34] haha [10:34] I have my hands full with non-GUI stuff. [10:34] nice idea :) [10:34] and I'm mine busy enough with GNOME [10:34] I don't even use firefox [10:35] epiphany-browser use lpi for its part :) [10:35] Heh.

[11:53] seb128: the thing is, some udev event launches a horde of scripts that then run another hordrde (>50) of hdparm [11:53] you have not described it [11:53] I tried but the other computer died :-) [11:53] I run hoary on this one [11:54] it always happens after modprobing for cloop === `anthony [n=anthony@220-253-115-163.VIC.netspace.net.au] has joined #ubuntu-devel [11:54] and mounting cloop a moment later [11:54] I can reproduce it and I've got a log of ps aux if you'd like [11:55] http://www.suxx.pl/run.log [11:55] that's from yesterday [11:55] the number of hanging hdparms is not constant [11:55] they never die, I cannot kill any of them (all are in 'D' state according to top) [11:56] system is locked and hdd led keeps blinking === infinity goes to get his dinner on.

[11:58] seb128: I tried yesterday when the box died [11:58] seb128: bugzilla or malone?

[12:54] hughsie: maybe one of the #include I removed really needs to be there? [12:55] hughsie: you might try adding it again in probe-hiddev.c [12:55] hughsie: maybe sys/types.h is enough, asm/ is really evil for an userspace program [12:55] asm should never be used directly [12:56] #include works.... [12:56] userland should include sys/ or whatever that will take care of digging into asm if required [12:56] #include doesn't work [12:56] than something else is screwed too [12:57] i'm guessing /usr/include/linux/hiddev.h shouldn't be using __s32 [12:57] hughsie: well, at least it should include asm/types.h on its own [12:57] <\sh> hmm...is it possible to grab now an daily ubuntu ISO with latest kernel upload (even for the installer?) ;) [12:58] hiddev.h?

[01:28] pitti: yup, that's exactly what I want to discuss [01:28] hang on, let me get my gun === pitti gets his armory [01:29] anyone got gregkh and kay's addresses? [01:29] so ... [01:29] Keybuk: Greg KH [01:29] hotplug [01:29] I meant his real life address, for the killing :p [01:29] Keybuk: oh, sorry :/ [01:30] you have one of the not-working usb cameras? [01:30] Keybuk: send them a mail bomb instead (will drastically reduce your jail time, too) [01:30] Keybuk: well, they work [01:30] Keybuk: they are just controlled by libusb [01:30] right, yours works? [01:30] Keybuk: it's one of the gphoto2 cams which do not act as mass storage [01:31] right, and those are currently communicated to with /proc/bus/usb/... yes? [01:31] Keybuk: yes, provided that /proc/bus/usb/003/006 permissions are right [01:31] Keybuk: yep [01:31] Keybuk: thanks for pointing out the broken hotplug script, I indeed get *all* proc devices chmodded now [01:31] I wonder what is replacing that [01:31] /proc/bus/* is going away [01:31] I've got a non mass-storage digital camera [01:31] but it works just fine [01:31] Keybuk: so it seems that hotplug.d/usb is always executed, instead of being called through the hotplug map [01:32] I bet everyone's forgotten about those devices (I had) [01:32] that's right [01:32] ok, so we have [01:32] Keybuk: you get a proper /dev/foo for your cam? [01:32] mine's usb storage [01:32] /etc/dev.d/$SUBSYSTEM/*.dev [01:32] ah, I see [01:32] these are run for every /dev device node created [01:33] including those made at udevstart in S04udev [01:33] yep, but that doesn't help for many scanners and cams [01:33] Keybuk: what'll replace /proc/bus/usb? Proper devices? [01:33] since they don't have a sysfs node [01:33] though not those in initramfs because we dont copy the scripts there [01:33] Mithrandir: see above, I suspect everyone's forgotten about it ... I'll ask on linux-hotplug-devel later [01:33] right [01:33] Keybuk: so the initial boot problem is that /proc/bus/usb is already there when initramfs runs, but there is no hotplug script there? [01:34] next there's /etc/hotplug.d/$SUBSYSTEM/*.hotplug [01:34] those are run for every /dev device node created as a result of a kernel uevent [01:34] Keybuk: apparently they are run for more devices, not just /dev ones [01:34] and last there's /etc/hotplug/$SUBSYSTEM/*.usermap [01:34] Keybuk: I'd really like to keep the scanner and camera usermaps [01:34] which are run as a result of the hotplug usb agent [01:35] ok, if a usermap is involved, the script should not be in /etc/hotplug.d [01:35] it should be in /etc/hotplug [01:35] then it'll be run by the hotplug input.agent [01:35] Keybuk: in the past, the usermap assigned a name to a vendor/product id, and then /etc/hotplug/usb/name was executed [01:35] uh, usb.agent [01:35] Keybuk: under the respective subsystem no? [01:35] yes [01:35] pitti: that's still true, that code didn't go away [01:35] Keybuk: but /etc/hotplug/usb/ does not work any more... [01:36] pitti: yep, this is what I do to send SIGHUP to cupsd [01:36] pitti: it should do [01:36] Keybuk: #14191 [01:37] ya know [01:37] it's entirely possible that the scripts aren't run [01:37] I can't find that code anymore === aeddan_ [n=aeddan@203.39.89.243] has joined #ubuntu-devel [01:37] no, it's there [01:37] if [ -x $HOTPLUG_DIR/$TYPE/$MODULE ] ; then [01:37] debug_mesg Module setup $MODULE for $DESCRIPTION [01:37] $HOTPLUG_DIR/$TYPE/$MODULE === Gman_ is now known as GmanZZZ [01:39] hmm [01:39] wonder if that's broken by grepmap [01:39] Keybuk: hmm, then for some reason it is not executed [01:39] Keybuk: or it is executed, but some parameters are not passed [01:39] right [01:39] (more likely) [01:39] this is a total mess, isn't it :p [01:39] so how it's _supposed_ to work is: [01:40] all devices are created in userspace as a result of a kernel uevent by udev [01:40] so you'd need a udev.rules for these things that sets the permissions and stuff [01:40] there won't be an /etc/hotplug, ./etc/dev.d or /etc/hotplug.d [01:40] pitti: pong [01:41] lifeless: your cf bug seems to have reappeared in bz, I CC'ed you [01:41] Keybuk: right, in an ideal world, where insane stuff like using /proc for accessing devices would be nonexistent.. [01:42] but, as you've pointed out, we don't get the /proc-fu [01:42] pitti: heh [01:42] pitti: I see it. I'll try with the live cd [01:42] the trouble is, udev is written by the guys trying to make this non-insane world; so they're a bit low on the backward compatibility [01:42] Keybuk: so I should revert the path change, put the hotplug file back to /etc/hotplug/usb/libgphoto [01:42] Keybuk: /etc/hotplug/$SUBSYS/$name will be deprecated in some point? [01:42] Keybuk: and we instead fix that calling again? [01:42] yeah, the gphoto and libsane things should go back to /etc/hotplug/usb with their usermaps [01:42] then we'll debug why that's stopped working [01:42] sivang: it's already deprecated [01:43] Keybuk: ok, I try this locally here [01:43] segfault: sounds like fabbione's memory of how the xserver-xorg keymap guessing stuff works is rather out of date, and predates it knowing about debian-installer/keymap [01:43] fabbione: please see my comment in #16386 [01:43] in fact, it's totally unsupported upstream and we're just muddling on === Aegir [n=richard@d220-238-186-125.dsl.vic.optusnet.com.au] has joined #ubuntu-devel [01:44] yeah, that's what i thought [01:44] it would be nice to have it fixed and working in breezy final [01:45] Keybuk: odd, it actually works now [01:45] Keybuk: did you recently fix something that could have caused that? [01:45] nope [01:46] we're still left with the "plugged in already" or "plugged in later" problem [01:46] Keybuk: I'm 100% sure that it did not work at the time I fixed #14191 [01:46] Keybuk: where to look to know how to do it the "new" way? [01:46] Keybuk: right, Keybuk: so the initial boot problem is that /proc/bus/usb is already there when initramfs runs, but there is no hotplug script there? [01:46] <\sh> hmmm... [01:46] right [01:47] Keybuk: it seems we need some kind of coldplugging at boot [01:47] /etc/hotplug isn't run by udevstart [01:47] <\sh> anybody who tried warty -> hoary -> breezy upgrades? [01:47] \sh: me [01:47] Keybuk: ok, so if /etc/hotplug.d isn't any better or worse than /etc/hotplug, I just revert the #14191 change [01:47] \sh: but about 3 weeks ago [01:48] <\sh> zyga_: good...any problems with non us/uk keyboard settings in gnome? [01:48] \sh: I was doing server upgrades [01:48] pitti: in theory, /etc/hotplug/usb/* is run by /etc/hotplug/input.agent which is run by /etc/hotplug.d/default/default.hotplug [01:48] <\sh> zyga_: oh. I did a laptop upgrade just now :) [01:48] gah, USB.agent USB USB USB [01:48] . o O { guess who's been debugging the input subsystem too much? } === Aegir [n=richard@d220-238-186-125.dsl.vic.optusnet.com.au] has joined #ubuntu-devel [01:49] \sh: anything broken? [01:49] hello mjg59 [01:49] <\sh> zyga_: yepp...german keyboard layout :) [01:49] so if /etc/hotplug.d/usb is being run, then /etc/hotplug/usb should also be run -- but with the bonus that the latter lets you have a usermap [01:49] <\sh> zyga_: reconfigured xserver-xorg didn't help... [01:50] \sh: what's broken with xorg? [01:50] mvo: Hello [01:50] Keybuk: hm, I just wonder why hotplug.d worked and hotplug didn't in the past [01:50] pitti: anyone of a zillion bugs in this mess [01:51] Keybuk: bah - just change every user to id 0 and forget about this crap :-) [01:51] mjg59: what should usplash do when no display manager is used? it currently just keeps being displayed [01:51] pitti++ [01:52] mvo: there should probably be an S99 QUIT [01:52] mvo : It needs an init script that runs at runlevel2/S99 and tells it to exit, I suspect. [01:52] <\sh> zyga_: moment real work life [01:52] mvo: It'll wait until it times out [01:52] pitti: so I'll find out what the kernel guys are doing about /proc/bus/usb/* [01:52] mjg59 : Can you add an init script to explicitely QUIT it? [01:52] infinity: Sure [01:53] mjg59 : Seems a reasonable thing to do. [01:53] mjg59: do you mind if I add such a script? [01:53] for breezy, I think just pitting those scripts back to /etc/hotplug/usb should be fine -- and asking people not to have them turned on while they boot [01:53] mvo: Not at all [01:53] Keybuk: hopefully scanners and cameras get proper /dev entries in the future [01:53] mvo : Just make the script silent, since "Killing off usplash" will make no sense if usplash isn't running. [01:53] Keybuk: there's no way to run the scrits at bootup? [01:54] mvo : And if mjg59 has done his job right, it should never ever fail or exit non-zero anyway. :) [01:54] pitti: actually, ignore me ... by moving them to /etc/hotplug/usb they _should_ be run on boot [01:54] that should fix that too [01:54] because they'll be run by S:S40hotplug [01:54] infinity: I'll make it silent and I'll make it run /etc/init.d/console-screen.sh (if usplash was runing) to make sure that the fonts are properly set [01:54] Keybuk: rock, I'll try that [01:55] the device will already exist by that point, so it'll be just a side-effect of re-hotplugging anything on the usb bus [01:55] mvo: what kind of fonts does usplash use? [01:55] mvo : Ahh, nice. And I suspect it should be in runlevels 2 through 5. [01:56] infinity: right. I'll make it S98 because it seems that a lot of display-managers run as S99 (wdm, xdm) and that will make sure that the fonts are set before X starts (once it's up, that seting will not work anymore) [01:56] mvo : You could put it in 0,1,2 at K01 too, for bonus points, so it will kill usplash instantly on a reboot attempt during boot. [01:57] mvo : Err, 0,1,6 [01:57] mvo : We run our display manager at S13. :) [01:57] ogra: is vmware workstation/gsx server a recognised target for ubuntu? [01:58] infinity: yes, I fixed that ;) [01:58] mvo : Erm... "fixed"? [01:58] infinity: just joking, I added a special case to the init script for usplash. ugly but ... [01:58] mvo : We run it early on purpose, to provide the illusion of a faster boot-to-login" time. === spacey [n=spacey@flits101-191.flits.rug.nl] has joined #ubuntu-devel [01:58] I haven't found a better way yet [01:58] hughsie: it probably should be; that's what half the magazine reviewers are going to be using [01:58] pitti: so with your camera, you get insert notification? [01:58] hughsie, i think so, but i have no clue about vmware probs... didnt use it yet [01:59] ogra: it's not working :-( [01:59] Keybuk: you mean from hotplug? yes [01:59] mvo : I'm not sure we want to blink through the VTs between usplash and *dm, though.. [01:59] mvo : Right now, we have a very smooth transition from usplash to gdm. [01:59] hughsie, i know about some probs with the vmware scsi drivers [01:59] pitti: odd, that means there at least is some kind of uevent for it [01:59] hughsie, try to switch it to ide emu... [02:00] ogra: that could be right, i installed on a virtual scsi drive [02:00] mvo : If you kill usplash, run console-support.sh, then wait for a *dm script to run, we'll see the console for a little bit. (maybe a long while, if they have lots of S99 scripts) [02:00] Keybuk: kernel: [19333.611720] usb 3-5.1: new full speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 10 [02:00] - that's the only one [02:00] ogra: i'll try with ide [02:00] might be worth mentioning in the reease notes or somethign [02:00] infinity: it isn't noticable on my machine with gdm, but it's a reasonable fast system. the problem is that the console-fonts must be set at some point (or otherwise a lot of people like greek, chinese etc will hate us) [02:00] Keybuk: in the future, the kernel should create sysfs nodes for these devices, so that udev can handle them [02:01] mvo : I take it console-screen.sh just doesn't work at all when usplash has the console?

[03:15] I know others had the issue, since I found the workaround via google [03:15] it had something which went WHIRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR very loudly [03:15] I'm not sure if it was the fan or the disk or what though :-) [03:15] probably the fan [03:15] And that would switch on even if it didn't have processor loaded? [03:15] processor+thermal meant it was loud and hot [03:16] loading neither meant it was quiet (but I think still whirring gently, IIRC), and cool enough to hold [03:16] The worry is that it wouldn't cool properly under load without it [03:19] I suspect it might well be more hopelessly maladjusted defaults, than that it actually *needs* to have those two modules unloaded [03:19] but without the hardware any more, it's tricky to say ...

[03:26] sivang: no, when did you send it?

(i sent to ubuntu.com) [03:27] please guys, the right place for patches is bugzilla [03:27] seb128, a change to urls.py to call x-www-browser if there's no gnome open [03:27] ok btw is there a nicer way of seeing if gnome-open exists than os.path.exists('/usr/bin/gnome-open') [03:28] I did not know how to do it w/o hardcoding the path [03:28] janimo: you can check if the package which installs it is on the system [03:28] kamion: thanks for hunting down that keyboard bug. :) [03:28] janimo: that can be achived through python-apt [03:29] janimo: or a simple call to dpkg --get-selection and grep for the package [03:29] doesn't that complicate the code a lot more? [03:30] janimo: janimo, that's fine this way, thanks [03:30] it's not like gnome-open will be installed elsewhere [03:30] seb128, ok [03:31] seb128, so I'll file a bug with the diffs I made?(no debdiff since I did not know what the next versionname should be) [03:32] thanks!

[05:43] Far nicer than the flood of email. =) [05:44] yup [05:45] oh well === Keybuk mails the bug instead with the kernel patch to kill usbfs [05:45] where do I reassign a bug that has to do with general GUI features and improvements? [05:46] BenC: seb128 :p [05:46] hehe [05:46] hey benC [05:46] hey [05:46] we should have a "iz-gtk-bug" component [05:47] I'm going to start with hotplug since it's probably more to do with that than anything [05:47] what's the bug/ [05:48] and you're just getting your own back for all the "iz linux bug" traffic I've been sending to you, aren't you === dereks_ [n=dereks@66.9.7.66] has joined #ubuntu-devel [05:49] elmo: ok, sent you a mail about that with some more informations [05:51] BenC: reassign it to me, I'll close it as NOTABUG probably :) Bugzilla is not a nice place to list new stuff to make, the wiki is better for that [05:52] what is the gui? [05:54] seb128, what's your bugzilla address? I left the lpi bug assigned to debzilla [05:54] janimo: just type seb128 and it'll disambiguate === crispin [n=crispin@cpc1-cmbg8-4-0-cust246.cmbg.cable.ntl.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel === lamont [n=lamont@15.238.6.147] has joined #ubuntu-devel [05:55] if it's something like "would be nice to get desktop notification of hotplug events" that probably belongs somewhere around hal [05:55] janimo: what jdub said [05:55] Does anyone know where the network-applet gets its connectionstatus from? === dereks_ [n=dereks@66.9.7.66] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:03] spent most of yesterday going through all the kernel bugs, and only got to about 1/5 of them [06:03] closed a lot though :) [06:04] BenC: 5 more days of that and we'll have a bug free linux === ivoks [n=ivoks@lns01-1586.dsl.iskon.hr] has joined #ubuntu-devel === maradong [n=bhentges@vodsl-4421.vo.lu] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:05] Driver sata_promise in latest kernel (2.6.13) don't support PDC40719 chip.

[06:08] "almost perfect"? === zeedo [n=zeedo@www.reboot-robot.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:09] Keybuk: I was thinking of a desktop daemon to do somethink like that [06:10] something like "you inserted a USB2 Wireless adapter - it will not work until you install firmware" [06:10] hughsie: something that listened to hal events and popped little icons into the notification tray for a few seconds for new hardware? [06:10] Keybuk: not so much for new hardware, that should "just work" - but for the stuff that doesn't work, then it should tell the usetr [06:11] when it needs updated userspace, a new kernel, or firmware [06:11] seems reasonable [06:11] but i wanted to scope out the problm in my head before i started with a PoC [06:11] any other use cases? [06:11] I want something that when it can't find a module matching a device's modalias does a GET http://drivers.ubuntu.com/?modalias=$MODALIAS which can return information about a device [06:11] "This device is supported by Breezy Badger, upgrade?" [06:12] "This device is supposed by third-party software, download?" [06:12] Keybuk: it's pretty similar to the work i've been doing on gnome power manager [06:12] "This device is unknown, supply information to us?" [06:12] yes, exactly === thesaltydog [n=fabio@host229-150.pool8253.interbusiness.it] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:13] Keybuk: how to store this information? One big XML datafile [06:13] ? [06:14] the modalias for a device is a simple string -- that can be wildcard matched to identify the device [06:14] for each device, you may as well xml up the sysfs entry for it [06:16] Keybuk, but it gets more complicated surely? [06:16] what more is there? [06:17] hughsie: matching PCI IDs? [06:17] What hardware needs stuff doing to it before use? [06:17] sladen: yes, i'm thinking of using hald as a backend : and in that way it's easy === camilotelles [n=Camilo@20132139198.user.veloxzone.com.br] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:18] this becomes useful for collecting information about hardware we don't know about [06:18] hardware that needs firmware issues a firmware request anyway [06:18] so you see a "I need firmware!" event go past [06:18] hughsie: hook hotplug aswell so that when asked for firmware it can fail but pop up a ''you need illegal firmware: [ ] This is legal. Really. [ OK ] '' [06:18] sladen: s/hotplug/udev/ [06:18] sladen: we need to be careful about the legal side of things [06:20] can one of you guys knock up a wiki page and post this info pls...

[06:40] it's already got all the libnotify, hal stuff that it needs [06:40] hmm, I dislike having daemons that do too much [06:41] if the legwork to adding that support to a new daemon is a lot -- copy the legwork from g-p-m into a library they both use [06:41] ivoks: pong [06:41] jdub: i'm interested in planet.ubuntu.com [06:41] Keybuk: thats the thing, it would only be a small addition [06:41] jdub: so, if you could tell me what you need, so my blog would showup on planet [06:41] would it though? it could get quite a large addition doing all sorts of cute things [06:41] it's pros and cons of having a new, seporate daemon [06:42] ivoks: if you're an ubuntu member, send me your rss feed url [06:42] I think the way things are going with the new session stuff is to have lots of very small daemons [06:42] jdub: correct? [06:42] well, i hope not [06:43] but there is the potential for it :) [06:43] or is it one big "do everything" daemon? === janimo [n=jani@Home03207.cluj.astral.ro] has left #ubuntu-devel [] [06:43] Keybuk: i don;t think that would be the plan - i thin kwe need middle ground tho [06:43] gnome-session will activate other stuff via d-bus [06:43] D-BUS [06:43] jdub: i am (i'm motu) url: http://ivoks.blogspot.com/atom.xml === janimo [n=jani@Home03207.cluj.astral.ro] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:44] jdub: does this actually work now?

[06:50] that was the excuse given at the time in Debian anyway [06:51] elmo: it's always been arch-any [06:51] lamont: no it hasn't [06:51] er, for a good long time anyway [06:51] I have a good long memory :P [06:51] elmo: debian-cd/tools/boot/*/boot-hppa doesn't appear to run palo [06:51] Kamion: ok, it may not be valid anymore [06:51] the d-i build process might, but that runs on hppa [06:51] maybe something mad in boot-floppies needed it [06:51] d-i build almost certainly does [06:52] PALODEB="$($BASEDIR/tools/apt-selection cache show palo | \ [06:52] sed -n 's/^Filename: \(.*_hppa.deb\)$/\1/p')" [06:52] ar p "${MIRROR}/${PALODEB}" data.tar.gz | tar xz ./usr/share/palo/iplboot [06:52] mv usr/share/palo/iplboot $CDROOT/install/iplboot [06:52] ^-- what debian-cd does [06:52] Kamion: won't that cause it to show up eternally in anastacia?

[06:56] and, while present on the other architectures, are not present on hppa. === lamont double checks [06:56] I thought infinity fixed libgda2 [06:56] lamont: no.. they have been fixed [06:56] lamont: broken post-autotest? [06:56] ah cool [06:56] has b-at finished yet? [06:57] we should do a main only run now and catch any stragglers === lamont still shows libcaca_0.9-5ubuntu1 as current, and failing (unless it's been fixed in the last hour or 2)( [06:57] libgda2 is fixed === lamont kicks a few virtual deps [07:00] breezy-at has nothing in needs-build [07:00] sounds like time to kick it again [07:00] ok, I'll start that now [07:01] mdz/kamion: I'm also going to kick all the current dep-waits, to clear any outstanding waiting-on-virtual-package issues === lamont wonders if we made a decision on palo/libgcc2, or if he needs to go do the main-inclusion request wiki page thing. [07:02] libgcc2 I think counts as obvious [07:02] seb128: apt with updated po/pots uploaded [07:02] BenC, mdz: so is this "my hard drive is slower" stuff supported by any useful evidence yet? [07:02] the anastacia output is all messy again [07:03] jdub: I'm getting weird overall performance since lastest update, may this be related? (GNOME gui responsds also slowly) [07:03] mvo: rock, thanks [07:03] Is anyone here on a desktop with apm? [07:03] elmo: I know ubuntu-desktop is unininstallable, I'll track down the offending packages [07:05] jdub: http://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=15571 [07:07] wow, stracing gam_server is intense [07:07] mdz: ta [07:07] jdub: strace X ... for ultimate strace pleasure [07:07] the HD performance thing is crap [07:07] mvo: are those untranslatable strings fixed in apt? [07:07] mjg59: could it be the cpu scaling not working ? No matter what I do , CPU speed won't jump up to 1.8 as it used to do [07:07] i got much higher performance here with .12 than with .10 [07:07] Keybuk: lol [07:07] segfault: should be with this upload [07:07] well, i would be expecting X to be busy most of the time (especially when pushing output of strace!) :-) [07:08] mvo: they will appear in rosetta after some time? [07:08] sivang: I've no idea [07:08] segfault: yes, the import happens daily AFAIK [07:08] sivang: What hardware? [07:08] mvo: nice, thanks. [07:09] mhsame old dell laptop inspiron 8200 that you fixed the pakcage for, recall the wrong module loaded that you fixed ? [07:09] Yeah [07:10] so it is it. And it was beautifully working before, bumping CPU speed to 1.8 on load, and resting at 1.2 in low load [07:10] mdz/elmo: gnome-control-center is d-w libcaca-dev, libcaca is ftbfs. [07:10] that's the root cause of much of the uninstallability for hppa === lamont goes to double check that libcaca is ftbfs in breezy-at [07:11] lamont: is it hppa-specific, or is there a bug open? [07:11] mjg59: never mind, I got it working. I guess I was not stressing the machine enough [07:11] libcaca_0.9-5ubuntu1_20050914-0029-i386-failed.gz [07:11] libcaca_0.9-5ubuntu1_20050914-0240-amd64-failed.gz [07:11] libcaca_0.9-5ubuntu1_20050914-0501-ia64-failed.gz [07:11] libcaca_0.9-5ubuntu1_20050914-0928-powerpc-failed.gz [07:11] looks pretty general === lamont looks for a bug, or will file one [07:11] libcaca still cracks me up === bddebian has childish sense of humor [07:12] ENOBUG [07:12] fixing that [07:13] gcc -g -O2 -g -O2 ... -o cacaview -> [07:13] /usr/lib/libImlib2.so: undefined reference to `XShmDetach' [07:15] now to figure out if it's imlib2, or libcaca [07:16] imlib2-config --libs [07:16] -L/usr/lib -lImlib2 -lfreetype -lz -ldl -lm [07:16] thanks imlib2 === lamont thinks he'll give this one to imlib2 [07:18] Lathiat, you here? [07:19] mvo: update-notifier is polling a lot [07:19] ubuntu-bugs: 0 unread \o/ [07:19] NOBODY BREAK ANYTHING! [07:19] jdub: yes, I can fix that (if gaim is reliable nowdays) [07:19] Keybuk: got a minute? [07:19] lamont: sure [07:20] evo just hung on a futex again, so I have to restart the fucker [07:20] jdub: it used to be a additonal check to work-around problems in gaim [07:20] gamin? :) [07:21] jdub: err .. right :) [07:21] nm-applet is polling a lot [07:21] anyone know if a GNOME configuration frontend for Avahi/Zeroconf is being worked on? [07:22] though that's probably on /proc or whatever [07:22] Rotund: service-discovery-applet is in breezy, if you mean that (avahi) [07:22] the other end of it. [07:22] The avahi-daemon side [07:23] elmo: can we drop howl from the archive? [07:24] Rotund: i have no idea, the avahi source package has around a million binary packages, one of them might be what you're looking for :) [07:24] Rotund: i have no clue about it :) [07:24] nope. there's not one there [07:24] elmo: and gnome-user-share [07:24] I'm thinking of doing an "autodetect" wizard that will generate the services available [07:24] jdub: done [07:24] thanks [07:24] dholbach: reasoning? [07:24] elmo: it depends on libhowl0 === fabbione -> cook dinne [07:25] +r [07:25] fabbione: bon apptit [07:25] dholbach: danke [07:25] :) [07:26] dholbach, do you meen to drop gnome-user-share from ubuntu? [07:26] dholbach: ok, done [07:26] elmo: merci beaucoup [07:26] kent: yes [07:26] it would be great to just plug your computer on the network and have it be like "this, this, this, and this are available on your LAN" [07:26] kent: it depends on howl which has licensing problems [07:26] like Windows Networking/SAMBA but not shit [07:26] y'know, banshee looks fairly promising for the next ubuntu release if they fix some _very_ annoying bugs. [07:26] dholbach, ok. [07:28] mae: they will be fixed... i'm just waiting for a new upstream release which will be there soon [07:28] :) [07:29] and also, playlists don't keep their order, they enforce column ordering. [07:29] It crashed when ripping my cd, and the numbers to the playlists don't get updated properly when dragging songs into it [07:30] aah, banshee is in breezy archives. Nice, i didnt think it was there.. [07:39] who do i need to talk to about the ubuntu logo? [07:39] i'd like to use it in a T-Shirt [07:40] i have permission for the Mono, Hula logo [07:40] and my business [07:41] spayne: http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/TrademarkPolicy/ [07:41] anyone on IRC i can ask?

[07:49] hello :-) [07:49] Hello zyga_ [07:49] bddebian: doesn't including the correct header file fix it? === zyga_ grabs keyboard from the server [07:49] dholbach: Not afaict [07:50] :-) [07:50] mdz: new imlib2 uploaded. now a short break, and then I'll file a bug and close it. [07:51] with a tip of the hat to keybuk (auto*), and jbailey (cdbs) for speeding my walk through the painful mazes [07:51] lamont: the bug filing is superfluous if you're just going to upload the fix immediately thereafter ;-) [07:52] heh === thesaltydog [n=fabio@82.53.150.229] has joined #ubuntu-devel [07:54] who is scott james remnat?

[08:04] elvirolo: the development team receives automated notification of bugs filed in Bugzilla; there is no need to repeat the report here [08:04] mdz: thought -> gnome-bluetooth binary needn't be in main, just libgnomebt0{,-dev} [08:04] jdub: isn't that built from gnome-bluetooth? [08:04] source, yes [08:05] mdz: yeah i know ... I was just wondering if anyone knew whether is was going to be fixed or not [08:05] jdub: is it ready for an ubuntu release? === lionel_ [n=lionel@ip-128.net-82-216-65.rev.numericable.fr] has joined #ubuntu-devel [08:06] 0.5 has had quite a bit of testing in the real world [08:06] 0.6 dramatically less so [08:06] elvirolo: of the 16,000 bugs filed before it, about 12,000 have since been fixed, so the odds are in your favour [08:07] i would support the inclusion of libgnomebt0 specifically for the benefit of nautilus-sendto [08:07] ok... [08:07] but happy to see gnome-bluetooth binary in universe [08:07] jdub: and a cvs snapshot from early december probably even less so? ;-) [08:07] mdz: that's 0.6, you see. much drama. :) [08:08] jdub: I try to avoid mixing binaries that way wherever possible; it creates awkward support situations [08:08] jdub: then you'd be able to send files to bluetooth stuff, but not to receive it (gnome-obex-server) [08:08] jdub: e.g., if someone wants to fix the package in universe, we actually need to touch main [08:08] dholbach: is nautilus-sendto useful without the bluetooth functionality? [08:08] i'd really love to see it available for the masses, and my tests with my 3 devices have been fine so far, but i'm not sure how good that works in main [08:09] mdz: it is, but it won't do bluetooth. [08:09] mdz: yes, i tested it yesterday, it even found a blackberry device in the flat below mine :-p [08:09] jdub: sounds like a lack-of-feature more than a bug [08:09] dholbach: Hey, fix that bluetooth-gnome pixmap bug on Malone!! ;-P [08:10] mdz: (ok, then i'd revise -> libgnomebt0 in desktop, gnome-bluetooth in supported) [08:10] dholbach: so it worked well for you? [08:10] all i can say is that the test with my 3 devices has been fine and it's a COOL feature [08:10] mdz: it is a bug for our bluetooth goal :-) [08:10] very few of us seem to have bluetooth devices; it's quite difficult for us to support that functionality [08:10] but i can't tell how broken it is for the world [08:10] works fine with three different devices i've tested === elvirolo [n=elvirolo@82.250.41.108] has left #ubuntu-devel ["Kopete] === dereks__ [n=dereks@66.9.7.66] has joined #ubuntu-devel [08:10] including the treo 650 (pipka has the same phone as sabdfl) [08:11] dholbach: has pitti reviewed the report? [08:11] 0.5 has been very widely tested [08:11] mdz, nobody has put it on the queue :( [08:11] mdz: charles wrote it, but it wasn't linked on InclusionQueue [08:11] s/tested/used/ [08:11] jdub: isn't that inconvenient, for them to share a phone while living on different continents? [08:11] i just linked it there === mvo giggles [08:11] mdz: :) [08:11] mdz: sabdfl seems to enjoy it. [08:12] one of these days I will call sabdfl and pipka will answer instead [08:12] chmj: how good were your tests with gnome-bluetooth? [08:12] so we have at least 3 people who tested it :) === ogra can test it with ris razor and the dongle he has [08:13] we'd have to include gnome-bluetooth binary if we wanted gnome-obex-server (which lets you send files to your ubuntu machine) [08:13] *his [08:13] if we were to add this to desktop and discover in a few weeks that it causes some weird nautilus crash, I would be unhappy about that [08:13] but i don't think we should bother with that for now [08:13] mdz: nautilus-sendto only runs when you context-click and choose "send to..." [08:13] jdub: oh, it's an external program and not a plugin? [08:13] so it won't crash nautilus :-) [08:13] yeah, the bt bit is a plugin for a separate nautilus-sendto binary [08:13] mdz: until pitti has reviewed it, i'll do some more testing [08:14] me too [08:14] dholbach, can you prepare a sendto binary for amd64 and upload it anywhere [08:14] dholbach: this is pretty clearly pre-featurefreeze stuff to me [08:14] it's much more mature than gnome-phone-manager (which would be cool for the Bluetooth goal, if it worked more instantly) [08:14] ogra: yes [08:15] mdz: i'm sorry, as you know, i was a bit busy before featurefreeze [08:15] (i know you all were) [08:15] ah, meanwhile, nautilus-sendto is crashing on startup for me (no bt bits involved) === blahrus [n=blahrus@12-223-185-205.client.insightbb.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel [08:15] dholbach, thanks, even if it probably wont be accepted, testing is alwys fine i think [08:15] dholbach: I'm not blaming you; it's simply quite late to consider it [08:15] yeah [08:16] 16 days to final release [08:16] mdz: "hey sabdfl, you can send files to your palm now" === ogra whistles while poking at the screensaver code... [08:16] jdub: don't you dare [08:16] ha ha [08:17] dholbach: this doesn't require any seed changes, right? [08:17] so if it causes problems, it can be reverted by only touching nautilus-sendto? [08:17] mdz: we'd at least need libgnomebt* [08:17] dholbach: right, but those would be pulled in by a dependency and not seeded [08:18] i.e., no metapackage transition required [08:18] yeah, afaik that'd be it === xTina [n=xTina@p54A26ED3.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [08:19] yep === dholbach [i=foobar@i577B172C.versanet.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel === kyncani [n=kyncani@82.250.31.88] has joined #ubuntu-devel [08:20] *grmbl* [08:21] mdz: once I get hppa really caught up (thanks libcaca), I may want to see about one last ubuntu-meta upload to flesh out ubuntu-* packages there === pabs3 [n=pabs@dsl-202-72-168-241.wa.westnet.com.au] has left #ubuntu-devel ["Don't] [08:21] mdz: and it sounded like once it's semi-clean, anastasia could look at hppa as well as ia64/sparc, yes? [08:27] lamont: we'll see how it looks first, but yeah [08:28] jdub, do you remember if gsf-sharp was also for searching MS Word docs with beagle ? [08:28] i dont think so dude [08:29] hmm [08:29] yeah, you need gsf [08:29] but you also need an old version of wv [08:29] not wv2 ? [08:29] (gsf handles the ole storage format) [08:29] bongness [08:29] we're just discussing malone #1859 in -motu [08:30] like i said in MOTU, i dont care about any of that MS crap [08:30] not wv2 [08:30] bah [08:30] as soon as someone else tests it ill include their patch [08:32] Does Debian include wv support in beagle? [08:32] doubt it [08:32] doubt it also, but looking [08:32] libwv1 doesn't exist [08:32] I know :-( [08:32] they dont include wv or gsf [08:32] and neither do we [08:32] SO I'm going to just reject the bug? [08:33] you can do whatever you like with the bug, given that im not fixing it :P [08:33] tseng: we have libgsf-cil [08:33] jdub: we do [08:33] bddebian: no, it should be fixed [08:33] OK [08:34] either by fixing their wv usage or sorting out wv1's needs [08:34] And we know libwv2-dev won't fix? === jdub thinks fixing their wv usage might be easier :) [08:34] don't believe so === jdub goes to ask them straight up [08:34] im not sure who wrote that code [08:41] aieee [08:41] I turn my back for a moment and anastacia output explodes again [08:42] Riddell: this kde-guidance stuff has a load of new deps which have no main reports [08:42] Riddell: http://people.ubuntu.com/~mdz/anastacia.txt === rob^^^ [n=rcaskey@cai17.music.uga.edu] has joined #ubuntu-devel === rob^^^ is now known as robertj === robertj discovers module-assistant and cries === robertj does a dance === bddebian just plain cries === jdong [n=ubuntu@216.11.139.10] has joined #ubuntu-devel === Rotund [n=joe@207-118-204-210.dyn.centurytel.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [08:48] spreadubuntu.org should have had the original warty artwork along with their slogan [08:49] the toupe is lacking sex appeal [08:50] lamont: what's my IA64 system type?

[09:17] Keybuk: done [09:17] Keybuk: I'll mount the cloop now, one moment - my laptop might die at this [09:17] zyga: ok, now (with the bad bits of your hdparm script commented out so your machine doesn't go bang) can you mount your filesystem [09:18] Keybuk: I reverted that patch [09:18] Keybuk: I'll apply it again if that's not relevant === jdong__ [n=ubuntu@216.11.139.10] has joined #ubuntu-devel [09:18] yeah, just want to see what udev is doing === tvo [n=tobi@5354EA9B.cable.casema.nl] has joined #ubuntu-devel [09:21] Keybuk: okay http://www.suxx.pl/udev.log [09:21] Keybuk: no /dev/hdc that's for sure [09:22] hmm, a whole bunch of loops though [09:22] maybe that's just the module preparing them [09:22] ah [09:22] Keybuk: note that this is for modprobe cloop && mount && umount && rmmod cloop [09:22] yeah, that'll be the module loading causing the /dev/loopN [09:23] ok, that's what I'd expect to see [09:23] nice, it shows my nfs mounted webserver :) [09:23] could you attach that log file to the bug with a comment like "what udev is doing" [09:23] sure [09:24] then edit (as root) /etc/dev.d/block/hdparm.dev [09:24] and at the top (just after the #!/bin/sh) put [09:24] exec 2>/tmp/hdparm.log [09:24] set -x [09:24] echo "$@" 1>&2 [09:24] env 1>&2 === crimsun [i=crimsun@hacked.org] has joined #ubuntu-devel [09:25] (end) === rebort [n=rob@bing65.cleveland-a.binghamton.edu] has left #ubuntu-devel ["Leaving"] [09:25] Keybuk: one moment, log addeed to bugzilla === rebort [n=rob@bing65.cleveland-a.binghamton.edu] has joined #ubuntu-devel [09:26] is anyone with debugging skills able to reproduce this hard drive performance issue? (http://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=15571) [09:27] Keybuk: done, checking again [09:28] has anyone heard o anyone else with the keyoard issue (#16479) [09:28] Keybuk: http://www.suxx.pl/hdparm.log [09:28] attach that one to the bug too [09:28] k [09:28] actually, wait [09:29] you need to boot without "nohdparm" :p [09:29] I actually want to see what it's doing [09:29] Keybuk: done [09:29] Keybuk: I did [09:29] + grep -w -q nohdparm /proc/cmdline [09:29] Keybuk: I was at work and I power cycled my laptop :) [09:29] hmm [09:30] oh, sorry [09:30] Keybuk: empty line, $? == 1 [09:30] can you change that exec 2>/tmp/hdparm.log line to exec 2>>/tmp/hdparm.log === macgyver2 [n=eric@unaffiliated/macgyver2] has joined #ubuntu-devel [09:30] Keybuk: sure [09:31] done [09:31] (this is totally poor man's debugging, but hey) === zyga enjoys it :) [09:31] OTE: the daemon does not 'daemonize' actually, this makes debug output available on the console [09:31] got the updated file? [09:32] Keybuk: not yet, one moment === jdong__ [n=ubuntu@216.11.139.10] has left #ubuntu-devel [] [09:33] Keybuk: now it's longish, check the URL above [09:33] no /dev/hdc in sight [09:33] definitely hdparm playing silly buggers, not udev [09:34] Keybuk: but wait [09:34] Keybuk: check the log I attached to the bugzilla [09:34] which one? [09:34] Keybuk: the first one, hdparm *is* called with -q /dev/hdc [09:34] yup [09:34] so that's not hdparm on it's own [09:34] I think this hdparm dev.d script is calling hdparm like that === kent [n=kent@h55d210.delphi.afb.lu.se] has joined #ubuntu-devel [09:35] $DISK is broken in that script [09:35] it parses hdparm.conf in shell, and I think it just runs hdparm for each thing it finds in that conf file [09:35] yeah [09:35] for some reason it gets /dev/hdc from my hdparm.conf === zyga didn't really read the whole script ;-) [09:35] Keybuk: it seems to be doing that though [09:36] Keybuk: really dumb, lots of loop stuff being cycled makes this thing go wild [09:36] basically it parses hdparm.conf and does whatever it says [09:36] every single time [09:36] Keybuk: default hdparm does nothing [09:36] it looks like someone just grabbed the boot-time init script and tried to write it [09:37] of course, why hdparm'ing your existing drive with the same settings crashes your machine is another matter [09:37] Keybuk: it does not crash immediatly [09:37] Keybuk: it simply eats the whole cpu in some kernel time... mumbo-jumbo [09:37] ...I wonder whether it's doing multiple hdparm at the same time on the same machine [09:37] on the same drive [09:37] Keybuk: none of the hdparm processes want to die [09:37] that'd be a bit freaky [09:38] Keybuk: it does basically [09:38] sweeeet [09:38] Keybuk: for each loop event it spawns a hdparm -whateve /dev/hda [09:38] yup [09:38] and hdparm -whatever /dev/hdc [09:38] so that's 40 hdparm's at the same time, one after another [09:38] so when you modprobe loop, the 8 block events that get generated all cause that command to be run [09:38] all at the same time [09:38] all on the same drive [09:38] okay 8*4 not 10 [09:38] yes [09:38] cute [09:39] could someone patch that mess into oblivion? [09:39] yeah [09:39] I'd love to help but I'm not really sure what that thing is supposed to do? === marcin_ant [n=marcin@www.e-dev.tele2.pl] has joined #ubuntu-devel [09:39] me neither [09:40] like I say, I think someone copied the init script [09:40] hdparm upstream doesn't have a conffile [09:40] and that's trying to make one using shell [09:40] mdz: the dependencies are pyqt/pykde which has been in main before, but I can write main reports if that's helpful [09:40] Keybuk: do you know anything about cupsd ? [09:40] Keybuk: sound scary [09:41] Keybuk: btw, I supplied the PNP ID mess for the Thinkpad 380ED [09:41] Keybuk: are those udev scripts required to use bash? [09:41] Keybuk: I have trivial but working and compleate hdparm.conf parser in a dozen python lines [09:41] hmm, ok, so the Debian package has changed quite a bit [09:42] s/compleate/complete/ [09:42] zyga: I wouldn't want to start python up in a udev event [09:42] that WOULD kill your machine :p [09:43] Keybuk: hmm, python is faster on startup than bash IMHO, and it is really faster when someone tries to write a parser in it ;-) === ivoks [n=ivoks@lns01-1663.dsl.iskon.hr] has joined #ubuntu-devel === Keybuk would write it in awk :p but then I'm old-skool [09:46] and dude, Python is _huge_ [09:46] and almost certainly not already in memory at that point [09:47] Keybuk: true [09:47] Keybuk: shell parser is still insane IMHO [09:47] well, yes, that script is insane [09:47] the "new" version in Debian doesn't look much better *sigh* [09:48] Keybuk: still - better a bloated python + gtk gui and progress bar that *works* than a sleek, low-footpring while true; updatedb; done in bash [09:48] s/footpring/footprint/ [09:50] right [09:50] I can see what this is trying to do [09:50] and it's just getting it very highly wrong [09:50] Keybuk: I guess it tries to know what hdparm stuff to call associated with the event [09:51] Keybuk: but instead it just calls everything, right? [09:52] zyga: could you try replacing it with http://people.ubuntu.com/~scott/hdparm.dev [09:52] remove /tmp/hdparm.log [09:52] and try again [09:53] does anybody know if pitti should come back ? [09:53] Keybuk: sure [09:55] Keybuk: I've noticed - you have leaved hdparm stuff around, are you sure? [09:56] sivang, i doubt it [09:56] you can comment out the actual call if you like [09:56] stick an "echo woo" in there or something [09:56] BenM: drop the ~t before cmu-desktop; ~t installs a task (based on Task: headers in the Packages file) rather than a metapackage [09:56] Keybuk: an echo $REST_OF_THAT_LINE would be more useful [09:56] true [09:57] and no doubt somebody will name their new toy version control system "woo" and use up yet another metasyntactic variable === ogra cries... still more gnome-screenaver bugs in my inbox :( [09:57] ogra: serves you right [09:57] :-'/ [09:58] mdz: I've got testing that on my todo list, as I think I've noticed it too [09:58] mdz: but I'm doing something with baz right now, so I don't think it'd be a fair test [09:58] ogra: ok, was just wondering. I needed him for some cupsd stuff [09:58] Keybuk: okay, it looks better this time [09:58] zyga: got the log? [09:58] www.suxx.pl/hdparm.log.1 [09:59] .0 if from previous iterationg [09:59] s/g$// [09:59] ok, other than my inability to write shell, that looks fixed [10:00] ogra: Why aren't you just ignoring them until after Breezy? [10:00] mpt, i do... [10:00] Keybuk: hmm, it still gets called multiple times though [10:00] it will only call hdparm for the block device being created [10:00] I can only see once? [10:00] its just schocking me every time until i figure that its not xcsrensaver the bug is for :) [10:00] that script gets called, but it does nothing === vuntzZz is now known as vuntz [10:01] Keybuk: + '[' /dev/hdc = '/dev/cloop6] ' [10:01] /etc/dev.d/block/hdparm.dev: line 175: [: missing `] ' [10:01] yeah, see my comment about my inability to write shell :p [10:01] but that's ok [10:01] :-) [10:01] so it'll only run hdparm for the block device being plugged [10:02] if you were to stick /dev/loop0 in your hdparm.conf, it would run that [10:02] Keybuk: I've fixed and improved the script [10:02] what did you change? [10:03] Keybuk: just less [ ] and more bash === sabdfl [n=mark@wbs-146-179-81.telkomadsl.co.za] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:03] hmm? [10:03] it's /bin/sh not bash [10:04] -a is not portable, or even remotely reliable [10:04] Keybuk: hmm [10:04] Keybuk: that's what I've changed [10:04] -a is not reliable [10:04] yet another reason to rewrite this mess in python [10:04] [ ... -a ... ] is bad, use [ ... ] && [ ... ] [10:04] Keybuk: where does it fail? [10:04] each shell has a different precedence for it [10:04] so you can't actually rely on it [10:04] ... [10:05] or in C even [10:05] well, yes, clearly this script is worng [10:05] Keybuk: I'll try to hack it a little [10:05] but only a few weeks from release, I want to make the minimum change possible to make it work, and then look at it with suspicion for dapper === joh [n=joh@cD908888B.sdsl.catch.no] has joined #ubuntu-devel === magnon [n=magnon@photogeeks/magnon] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:10] what you want to have is a program that can parse the hdparm.conf and run hdparm with the right set of a rules for a single given drive [10:10] Keybuk: yes, release is really soon now [10:10] Keybuk: hmm [10:10] Keybuk: that's more less 15 lines in .py [10:10] and then have SUBSYSTEM=="block", RUN+="/sbin/hdparm_block_device" [10:10] get python out of your head === kent [n=kent@h55d210.delphi.afb.lu.se] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:10] 1) python is in /usr [10:10] 2) it's big [10:10] 3) it's slow [10:10] 4) these happen a LOT [10:10] Keybuk: hmm === thoreauputic [n=prospero@wolax8-217.dialup.optusnet.com.au] has left #ubuntu-devel ["Leaving"] [10:10] Keybuk: okay so a C program could be hacked to do just that [10:11] writing something in Python that runs when the block device that _contains_ the Python interpreter is first discovered... bad :p [10:11] Keybuk: with bison flex it's easy but do you want it for breezy or dapper/ [10:11] :D [10:11] dapper [10:11] very very dapper [10:11] Keybuk: I'd love to have /bin/mini_python === spacey [n=spacey@flits101-191.flits.rug.nl] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:11] Keybuk: without any external modules [10:12] Keybuk: only os module and maybe re module built in [10:12] sys? :p [10:12] ugh, no re [10:12] I'm still confused about python module naming but you get the idea [10:12] re is usefull and python has separate prce anyway [10:12] pcre [10:13] so stuff would randomly behave differently because the compiler options for /bin/mini_python and /usr/bin/python would get out of sync; yay [10:13] (it *would* happen) [10:13] yay [10:14] now we know that -a gets interpreted differently and it's even slower than python as it spawsn a sub-process to read a one-line file === spayne [n=spayne@i-195-137-120-148.freedom2surf.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:14] I do agree with your points [10:14] && is simpler anyway [10:14] I just say that python --- or anything else that is 1) more efficient than bash/sh 2) portable and does not have 10 different implementations 3) a real language [10:15] zyga: Python code that does "import re" should begin "#!/usr/bin/perl" [10:15] Keybuk: python is chmod -r+w [10:15] s/python/perl/ [10:15] I know perl but I still think that [10:15] so is some people's Python [10:15] especially when they do anything involving it's evil re system, which isn't even compatible with the rest of the world [10:15] I used to maitain old invoice database managed by gigantic longish perl script [10:16] Keybuk: why is re evil? [10:16] it's slow, not actually compatible to any other re engine [10:16] Keybuk: okay [10:16] if you're thinking in re's, you may as well use the interpreter with the fastest re engine in the known universe [10:17] I've seen Python code that imports re, compiles a regular expression object, then matches it against a string [10:17] to see whether the line contains an "=" [10:17] the Pythonic way to to that is just if "=" in line: [10:17] Keybuk: I don't really thing in re's, but they are usefull nontheless (if that's a word) [10:17] :-) [10:18] s/thing/think/ [10:18] gigantic long perl scripts are unreadable, but so are gigantic long python scripts or gigantic long functions in C [10:18] geez I'm tired today ;-) [10:18] Kamion: true [10:18] also I don't generally find Python a good language for writing *short* scripts in [10:18] but I'd say that [10:18] [ `cat *.c | wc -l` -gt `cat *.py *.pl | wc -l` ] [10:19] a short script that has to read a file, parse it and do something tends to be more complicated in Python than just about anything else [10:19] zyga: your shell quoting habits need work, too ;-) [10:19] Keybuk: I'm not saying python is perfect [10:19] Keybuk: sheesh ;] [10:19] Keybuk: see what I mean ;-) === zeedo [n=zeedo@www.reboot-robot.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:19] zyga: not to mention that's a contendor for a double-wammy "useless use of cat" award [10:20] num_lines_in(file_list_from_glob("*.c") < num_lines_in(file_list_from_glob("*.py|*.pl")) [10:20] ;-)) [10:20] Keybuk: actually cat is needed [10:20] [ $(wc -l *.c) -gt $(wc -l *.py *.pl) ] [10:20] Keybuk: so that wc doesn't spit out stats for all the files [10:20] unless there is --summary or something [10:20] can't remember, tbh [10:21] btw, the shell is winning [10:21] heheh [10:21] that Python is evil [10:21] Keybuk: why? [10:21] not to mention missing a few imports ? [10:21] Keybuk: bah ;-) [10:21] where's num_lines_in and file_list_from_glob defined ? [10:21] c'mon, write the script PROPERLY [10:21] Keybuk: len(file(pathname)) [10:21] right [10:21] Keybuk: and as for glob that's a diferent story [10:22] Keybuk: I'd say that [10:22] 1) a small API for talking to files and doing simple stuff with them [10:23] http://people.ubuntu.com/~scott/pythonic [10:23] there [10:23] the actual equivalent Python was so long I couldn't paste it and had to put it online somewhere [10:23] 2) a consistent language, without any quoting problems and stuff that vary from .sh to .sh [10:24] shell has 1 [10:24] and provided you stick to portable shell, 2 is true too [10:24] but does not have 2 [10:24] hmm [10:24] portable shell has very small 1 [10:24] otherwise I'll start picking on Python's incredibly bad compatibility between versions [10:24] Keybuk: maybe slang or something else then [10:24] "what do you mean, this won't run on Python 2.3?!" [10:24] most languages have implementation-defined features; there are a bazillion of those in python [10:25] shell is fine as long as you actually know how to write it [10:25] (which depressingly few people do, but anyhow) [10:25] Keybuk: then I don't [10:25] and I know C - I think that sucks on the shell side IMHO [10:25] and python certainly has quoting problems, for example if you pick the wrong way to invoke external processes [10:25] you can pick the right way, but you can do that in shell too :-) [10:25] I think you are biased a little [10:26] the lesson is, pick the right tool for the job, rather than clinging desperately to the hammer when trying to drive in screws [10:26] you seem to know your way around sh compatibility issues [10:26] zyga: nope, I write python when it's appropriate [10:26] Kamion++ [10:26] hehe [10:26] and that does not frigten you :-) [10:26] Python is my favourite hammer by far [10:26] I certainly tend to avoid languages where I'm aware that I don't know how to use them safely; I'd hope that applies to most people [10:26] all I'm saying is, shell still has its appropriate niches [10:27] Kamion: and I agree [10:27] Kamion: and all I'm saying that is has some issues - especially the learning curve to get things right [10:28] Kamion: python also has encoding problems... it's unicode strings are like STIs; someone innocently gives you one and suddenly everything's infected and basic things become painful [10:28] Kamion: I dont want to give you the impression that python has none IMHO, I just think that it has less [10:28] Keybuk: yes - that sucks alot === enrico [n=enrico@debian/developer/enrico] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:28] you might find http://www.greenend.org.uk/rjk/2001/04/shell.html a useful article on avoiding common shell mistakes [10:28] written by a friend of mine === feehan [n=sfeehan@egress.sbb.uvm.edu] has left #ubuntu-devel [] [10:35] Kamion: interesting [10:35] Kamion: that's a keeper :) [10:36] I know most of that stuff really, one interesting thing for me was how to do for I in *.foo; ... done; properly [10:36] I still think that sh is a minefield [10:37] I especially like old scripts [10:37] mostly written in csh [10:37] csh isn't sh [10:37] maybe someone can help me, I am SIGHUPing cupsd. now accoridng to the code, it should do a configuration reload in response, all I get is "Termination successful", what am I doing wrong? [10:37] that come along with old comercial programs [10:37] ;) === robertj [n=rcaskey@cai17.music.uga.edu] has left #ubuntu-devel ["Leaving"] [10:37] they're totally different languages [10:37] I know :) === Aegir [n=richard@d220-238-186-125.dsl.vic.optusnet.com.au] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:37] they have lots of lots of checks to work on many then-popular systems [10:37] sivang: cups doesn't handle SIGHUP [10:37] infinity: ? [10:37] so it will just terminate [10:38] I came across that one last year [10:38] sivang: I've seen someone complain recently that cups dies on sighup [10:38] Keybuk: I see, but it has sighup_handler there , guess it does nothing but shut down [10:38] can't remember, I think that only got enabled for debugging or something [10:39] Keybuk: hmm, then I will need to teach it, if you've worked with it , do know if it's should be in schduler/main.c or scheduler/server.c or config.c ? :) (they all refel to the NeedReload flag that get's set by the singals) [10:40] zyga: you have a bug number? [10:40] sivang: no, sorry - I just overheard this a few days ago [10:40] zyga: ok [10:41] sivang: if you know about a place that logs #u-d you might find something about this [10:41] sivang: no idea ... I just discovered that the log rotation script killed cupsd every night by trying to get it to hangup and re-open its log files [10:41] sivang: so we changed it to restart cupsd instead [10:41] that's about as much investigation as I did [10:42] it was something to do with the fact that if it's dropped privileges, it can't actually reload its own configuration [10:42] not without elevating itself back to root, anyway [10:42] and we run cupsd in reduced privilege mode, because pitti saw it [10:43] Keybuk: yes, I see it now :-/ === mae_ [n=mae@dpc674653178.direcpc.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:43] if (RunAsUser) [10:43] sigset(SIGHUP, sigterm_handler); [10:43] else [10:43] sigset(SIGHUP, sighup_handler); [10:43] heeeeeelp heeeelp I neeedsss a buildd admin === enrico_ [n=enrico@debian/developer/enrico] has joined #ubuntu-devel === mae__ [n=mae@dpc674653178.direcpc.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:44] heh [10:44] m === martinhj [n=martinhj@238.80-202-208.nextgentel.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel === Simira [n=rpGirl@214.84-48-74.nextgentel.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel === zyga for a moment gazed at the C code and though... what are those redundant parenthesis for.... then I was enlightened [10:46] Keybuk: so now it responsds with a restart when poked with a SIGHUP ? === Simza [n=rpGirl@214.84-48-74.nextgentel.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:46] sivang: no, cause it can't restart itself either [10:46] Keybuk: or that just plain unhandled? [10:46] it kills itself [10:46] <\sh> elmo: Kamion is busy ;) [10:46] \sh: he's also not a buildd admin [10:47] "Don't send cupsd SIGHUP" :) [10:47] \sh: since when was I a buildd admin? [10:47] <\sh> damn...lamont kamion...I need some holidays [10:47] <\sh> or new glasses? [10:47] Keybuk: or just teach it to handle it properly :) [10:47] sivang: if it's running as a user, it won't be able to re-open its socket [10:48] Keybuk: yep. so we are going to not try reopen the sockets when RunAsUser [10:48] let alone things like its log files [10:48] mehhhh [10:48] a busted HUP handler is worse than none, surely [10:49] HUP (for a daemon) means close all your sockets, file connections, reload your configuration and open them again [10:49] Keybuk: well, that's what pitti asked me to attempt to do, have it crippled, but then we won't have to restart the cups server every time a usb printer is plugged in [10:49] wouldn't adding some hal love to cups be a better plan [10:49] so rather than have something smack cupsd every time a printer gets added, actually have cupsd listen out for it [10:50] (and I'm not even convinced cupsd runs with enough privilege to access usb printers that it didn't open when it was root) [10:50] Keybuk: would, but not at that stage of the release. We'd like to have something going for breezy [10:50] fair enough [10:51] Keybuk: it would just "rediscover" them, so we don't suspect too much problems. I first hacked it to just to a /etc/init.d restart, but then pitti noted that users may have print jobs ongoing and it would kill them [10:51] am I the only person that feels breezy would be better if it was 5.11? [10:51] zyga: what would you put in .11? [10:51] zyga: you mena postpone the release with a month ? [10:51] yes [10:52] bearing in mind moving it a month wouldn't necessarily remove the restriction on changes [10:52] I'm just whining though.. [10:52] the theory of a 6-monthly release process is that in three weeks, we get to fix everything properly [10:52] Keybuk: I was thinking about the bugs === enrico_ [n=enrico@debian/developer/enrico] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:52] which ones? [10:53] Keybuk: nothing specific - as I said it's just a feeling [10:53] other than the 236 release critical ones [10:53] I actually think breezy's in a slightly better state than warty was at this point [10:53] we only have 6 critical bugs open === SkaWay [n=Ska@host236-239.pool8255.interbusiness.it] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:54] but anyway - doing a every-6-months release is better than as-soon-as-everything-works-just-wait-and-use-your-nifty-oldish-package [10:54] dunno how mdz feels though [10:55] zyga: one always feels it would be better if it were just a little later for a few more fixes - but after a few releases you realise it's even better to be guaranteed to have another release in six months' time that you can get your fixes into [10:56] Kamion: you are right [10:56] zyga: install a hoary box, use it for a few days, then install breezy instead [10:56] it's odd, but breezy does feel better [10:57] in corporate planet I often see a 5 year old distro and everyone refuses to upgrade ;-) [10:57] I reckon someone's lightened the control colours a bit === enrico_ [n=enrico@debian/developer/enrico] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:57] then they ask me to work in this piece of history and fix bugs and other issues [10:58] Keybuk: breezy has lots of excelent things [10:58] Keybuk: and breezy does feel better than hoary [10:58] breezy is better [10:58] period. [10:58] "better" is the goal [10:59] "perfect" is something to aim for, but we can get closer in 6-months [10:59] Keybuk: maybe I'm biased ... I started using warty, then I upgraded to hoary and got interested in developement, near breezy I see how this thing is working and I know about the bugs and issues still around [10:59] maybe ignorance is bliss === zyga misses ubuntu-calendar [11:00] free porn? :) [11:00] no [11:00] it was a joke... [11:00] it would have been equally good with landscapes [11:00] the fact that it was upgraded every month [11:00] yeah, that was great [11:01] hmm === sivang misses too [11:01] hm... [11:01] I've just apt-getted it and it's not in the backgrounds menu [11:01] another way of looking at release management is to rather think of extending the release cycle by a month to get more bug fixing in, reducing the development cycle by a month [11:01] that way you've got a month less to break things, and a month more to fix them [11:01] while still holding 6-monthly [11:01] yup [11:01] Keybuk: faster freeze? [11:01] and one month older packages :) [11:02] it's all a matter of balance [11:02] Keybuk: but then again freeze is a double-edged sword [11:02] sure === blueyed [n=daniel@iD4CC1235.versanet.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel === infinito [n=infinito@75.Red-80-59-227.staticIP.rima-tde.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [11:06] Keybuk: about what? [11:07] the overall bugginess? we're not in bad shape [11:07] hey I've found a bug in ubuntu-calendar [11:07] it's a trivial fix [11:07] mdz: that's my impression, we're actually pretty good [11:07] the package puts the xml files into /usr/share/gnome-wallpaper-properties [11:08] I don't think we can usefully compare to warty, and maybe only somewhat to hoary [11:08] while it should have put them in /usr/share/gnome-background-properties [11:08] :-) [11:08] but my gut says "not bad" === janimo [n=jani@Home03207.cluj.astral.ro] has joined #ubuntu-devel [11:08] will anyone accept a patch that fixes this? [11:09] we have a much higher rate of sustained bug activity now than we ever have before, I'd say [11:10] mdz: yeah, I would say that too :/ [11:10] anyone :-) [11:10] It's a one-liner and it works [11:10] zyga: what? [11:11] seb128: there's a bug in ubuntu-calendar* packages [11:11] $ ls -l /usr/share/ | grep properties [11:11] lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 26 2005-03-02 23:40 gnome-background-properties -> gnome-wallpaper-properties [11:11] here [11:11] hmm [11:11] okay but it does not work [11:11] a manual fix makes it work [11:11] "manual fix"? [11:12] maybe it does not like symlinks [11:12] hmm [11:12] it works for me [11:12] hmm I'm dumb [11:13] https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=13256 [11:13] https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=8721 has some comments on the topic [11:13] seb128: okay [11:13] if you want to track the issue that would be appreciate [11:13] there is probably an issue but that's not obvious which one [11:14] zyga@falcon:/usr/share$ ls -l /usr/share/ | grep properties [11:14] drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2005-09-27 23:12 gnome-background-properties [11:14] drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2005-09-27 23:13 gnome-wallpaper-properties [11:14] they are not symlinks here [11:14] but you changed that, right? [11:14] no [11:15] I've reinstalled the packages to be sure [11:15] g-w-p is not a symlink [11:15] I did not touch that [11:15] I've got the gnome-background package too [11:15] seb128: it causes problems (undefined behaviour, depending on unpack ordering) for one package to install a symlink and another to install a directory in the same location [11:15] (I'm not sure about the name but you get the idea) === camilotelles [n=Camilo@200.128.80.250] has joined #ubuntu-devel [11:16] Kamion: I'd say it's better to put everything into the proper directory than to put symlinks around [11:16] seb128: you're probably going to have to fix up the situation in maintainer scripts [11:16] hmm anyway it's a real bug not my imagination -- I'm really tired today and I didn't want to look like a fool [11:19] Kamion: do you know why ubuntu-artwork install them to the wrong directory to start? [11:19] jdub: around? [11:19] seb128: nope [11:20] seb128: which directory is correct? [11:20] I guess that jdub knows about that [11:21] zyga: gnome-background-properties [11:21] seb128: how about a patch that makes g-b-p just search both directories? [11:21] Keybuk: weird. I manually executed cupsd as root, SIGHUP'd it, and it still "Terminates normally" [11:21] zyga: I want to know why they made this hack first [11:21] sivang: is it actually root when you HUP it, or has it turned into cupsys? [11:21] seb128: or is there any easier to migrate stuff from one directory to the other [11:22] seb128: I think upstream changed the directory and packager tried to get upgrade working [11:22] zyga: no, upstream didn't change this code for pretty sure [11:22] seb128: maybe just rebuilding calendar packages will work, old packages get removed [11:22] zyga: I'm one of the upstream for it [11:22] hmm then I'm out of ideas [11:23] seb128: I can confirm that rebuidling the package fixes the issue [11:23] (with the new directory instead of the old one) [11:23] the changelog of ubuntu-artworks suggest they change it to avoid a conflicts with gnome-desktop-background package [11:23] rebuilding? [11:23] or reinstalling? [11:23] oh, you mean installing them to the other dir? [11:23] seb128: rebuilding after modifying the directory, then reinstalling [11:24] yes [11:24] disturbing ... my screensaver just morphed Kinnison into Diziet [11:24] lol [11:25] LOL [11:25] Keybuk: how do I check? I su'd to root, /usr/sbin/cupsd -F , then SIHUP'd it with a sudo [11:25] sivang: ps aux | grep cups === pablof [n=ubuntu@200.128.80.250] has left #ubuntu-devel [] [11:26] bah, right [11:27] Keybuk: damn. it is cupsys , how does it switch to the user so soon? [11:27] setuid ? :p [11:27] generally it's considered wise to drop your privileges quickly if you're going to do so [11:28] seb128: do you want a patch? [11:31] seb128: is there any way to i18n-ze the those xml files [11:31] yes I'm an i18n whore [11:31] Keybuk: ah right , funnny that support dropping the privileges but didn't care for the realod config as the user appareently . funny upstream ;) [11:32] the problem is what if the config file change the user wants to reload for is a change of listening port? [11:32] you need to be root to listen on ports < 1024 === janimo [n=jani@Home03207.cluj.astral.ro] has left #ubuntu-devel [] [11:33] right, maybe I can selectivey sense a printer event, and respond only for those... [11:33] when is string freeze for Breezy? [11:34] Simza: AFAIK it's already string freeze [11:36] how to say in debian/control [11:36] yes, we are deep in string freeze === crimsun [n=crimsun@pdpc/supporter/silver/crimsun] has joined #ubuntu-devel [11:36] replaces & conflicts with the same package at version smaller than current [11:37] zyga: patch to https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=8721 if you have one [11:37] seb128: sure [11:38] zyga: for the translation:https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=9080 === Noah0504 [n=NoahMD@66-141-90-76.ded.swbell.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel === zyga likes doing packages :D [11:48] seb128: 13256 is a duplicate of 8721 [11:49] seb128: can you marke it as such [11:50] zyga: thanks, I've done that like 10 min ago :p [11:50] seb128: sorry ;) [11:50] no problem at all [11:50] thanks for pointing it :) [11:51] seb128: I'm doing update && upgrade to check that the problem is indeed fixed [11:52] seb128: just to clear things up, ubuntu-artwork contains all the translations for calendar and many other artwork-related stuff? [11:52] zyga: nop, no translation === bddebian [n=bddebian@pcp08717033pcs.phnixv01.pa.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [11:52] seb128: .pot's -- sorry [11:53] afaik there is some work to do on it, cf https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/show_bug.cgi?id=9080 [11:54] do you really remember those bugs? [11:55] zyga: the number? no. The bugs description, yep ... and I know how to find them with a query === mvo suspects that seb128 knows _all_ the bugnumbers by heart _and_ can map between ubuntu bz and gnome bz bugs [11:56] ah ah :) [11:56] but I can't prove it ;) [11:56] :p === Simza is now known as Simira [11:57] aww... now it works as expected but with old packages [11:58] and both directories are in fact directories [11:58] ah, no it does not :-) [11:58] everything is okay now :)
