hughsieogra: hey, you been following hal-devel list?12:03
sivangogra: are you more comfotable with XChat then irssi?12:03
ograonly very rough...12:03
ograsivang, yup12:03
hughsiewhat you make of it?12:03
hughsieAnother opinion if you will..12:04
ograhughsie, you mean "HAL is not for hardware management" ?12:04
hughsieogra: yes that whole thread with the *really* long emails12:04
=== LaserJock [n=icechat5@ppp-69-229-206-79.dsl.renocs.pacbell.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel
hughsiejust wanted an ubuntu perspective12:05
ograi totaslly agree with you... had a long dispute with pitti already, because he disaGREES12:05
ograwhoops.. sorry for the caps12:05
hughsieogra: seems to have got people quite passionate12:05
sivangogra: why HAL is not for hardware management ? (sorry, I haven't been following the threads just curious)12:05
ograi think a "hardware abstraction Layer" should also manage hardware... work in both directions...12:06
hughsieogra: seems crazy to me to do it twice by two different daemons12:06
hughsieif we have the information in hal, like acpi.battery12:06
ograelse i'd call it a "Hardware Information Layer" ... but we dont talk about HIL :)12:06
hughsiethen we have to decode the system type, work round bugs, lauch the update addons etc,12:07
hughsieand then do it *again* in anothe daemon12:07
ograyes, thats silly12:07
hughsiewhat's pitti's take on this?12:07
ograi  trhin your approach is the right way...12:07
ograpitti sees HIL, not HAL :)12:07
hughsieogra: thanks, i was starting to get worried that i was alone!12:07
ograurg12:07
hughsiei think davidz agrees too12:08
ogras/trhin/think12:08
hughsieHIL is great when you want to name a disk.12:08
hughsieHAL is great when you want to mount that disk using crypto automatically, or change the lcd brightness12:08
ograyes... pitti is our security guy, he's very cautious about possible security flaws being created through a two way HAL12:08
hughsieogra: i can see that too -- but then the dbus stuff lets ppl lock it down12:09
ograbut i thnk its the right approach12:09
hughsieit's just a big change for the one daeom does this, another does this type way of thinking12:09
ograjust design it carefully, and it will be fine...12:09
hughsiei'm not quite sure how to reply to matthias12:09
hughsieI mean, i respect the guy, and his work is very good, but I think he is wrong.12:10
ograhmm, probably wait for david to speak up12:10
ograhe cant ignore that thread12:11
hughsieogra: yes, good plan. will do.12:11
hughsiei figured if he didn;t like the direction he wouldn't have merged my patches12:11
ograand since he gives thedirection for HAL, he'd be the authorized source12:11
hughsie(he was the one who wrote the script invokation support!)12:11
hughsieif he does agree with me, then it will have been good to clarify what HAL is, and what it *should* do12:12
ograi really think HAL must work in two directions12:12
hughsieyes, thanks. I'm not going crazy then!12:12
ograso your approach is right imho... but even inside ubuntu we have different opinions about it12:12
hughsieyes, it's divided quite a few ppl12:13
hughsiebut then you can turn HAL back into HIL editing a few fdi files12:13
ograits a hairy thing because it can always introduce security breakage if not designed right12:13
ograits quite fragile... 12:13
ograbut we need such a layer imho12:13
hughsieyes, i know12:14

ograhughsie, will do :)12:16
hughsieogra: I keep upsetting people. first the ial and FnFX guys, now mattias with ppbuttonsd!12:17
ograpbuttonsd sucks a lot, but there is nothing better yet12:17
ogralots of people asked for removal pre breezy here... but there is no replacement yet... 12:18
hughsieogra: yet. there's lots of stuff i could do with HAL for PMU using the pbuttonsd code and enhancing the pmud addon, but that throws up more politics!12:18
ograprobably someone should encance HAL enough to replace it12:18
hughsieI really need a powerbook laptop to borrow so i can write the pmu stuff12:19
ograsure, but its the right way12:19
hughsieogra: what does pbuttonsd do that hal doesn't at the mo?12:20
ograyes, i need one too, edubuntu ppc couldnt get released, we had not enough testers12:20
ograno idea, no ppc around here12:20
hughsieebay...12:20
ogra:)12:20
hughsiei want a really shit one with a cracked screen or something12:20
ograheh12:21
hughsiecheers for the re-assurance ogra, appreciated.12:22
ogra:)12:22
ograthankls for all the work :)12:22
hughsieogra: well, it's getting to the stage where it "just works" for me12:23
ograyay12:23
hughsiei.e. i remove the acadapter and the screen gently dims12:23
hughsiefc5 has removed battstat applet in favour of g-p-m12:24
ograwe'll hopefully be able to do it for dapper12:24
hughsieogra: cool :-)12:24
ogra:)12:24
ajmitchand hopefully gss to go with it :)12:25
ograyeah12:25
hughsieg-s and g-p-m play very nicely together12:25
ograg-s-s is a must for dapper12:25
hughsieg-p-m uses g-s for all the X detection stuff12:25
ograi dont want to touch x-s-s again...12:25
hughsiex-s-s is a mess..12:26
ograyes12:26
ograand it wont get better12:26
ograas long as it keeps its maintainer12:26
hughsiewell, it could do with some love... or a re-write... ohh wait..12:27
ograheh12:27
ograif g-s-s hadnt shown up, i'd have started at least gconf integratiojn12:27
ajmitchand probably gone crazy because of it12:27
HiddenWolfg-s-s?12:27
hughsiethe architecture in g-s-s is sound too.12:28
ogragnome-screen-saver12:28
=== herzi [n=herzi@d006050.adsl.hansenet.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel
ograits a bit odd because of dbus though12:28
HiddenWolfogra, cool12:28
HiddenWolfogra, is that moving along nicely?12:28
ograyup12:29
HiddenWolfIf I'd had a working video driver, I'd sort out those screensavers.12:29
HiddenWolfThe bad, the worse, the ugly, and the passable. In that order. :P12:29
ograbut integrating with acpid until g-p-m takes over will be a PITA12:29
ograsince you cant easily access a users dbus session as root12:29
hughsiewhy would you want to integrate with acpid?12:30
ograberather acpi-support...12:30
HiddenWolfhughsie, power down cpu and monitor after a while.12:30
hughsieHiddenWolf: that's left to g-p-m12:31
hughsiei'm pretty sure g-s will never do that12:31
ograour hibernate tries to lock the screen for example... so you have to giver your password on resume12:31
hughsieg-p-m does that now12:31
ograthats very hard to do currently12:31
hughsieg-p-m locks the users screen using .lock() from g-s, and then calls hal to do the hibernate12:32
ograbut g-p-m runst in the session... we need access from outside the session...12:32
hughsieogra: why must you access from the system?12:32
sivangguys, when currently someone chooses a language in d-i, does he get all the menus in that language after installing ?12:32
ograand there the dbus api stands in the way12:32
ograsivang, in german, nearly all...12:32
sivangogra: so you do get all the menus in he choosen language, ok12:33
ograhughsie, probably its solved with your option in g-p-m note we are on a older version in ubuntu12:33
sivangogra: are you also getting a GNOME kbd selector ready to switch between english and germen?12:33
hughsieogra: you have a very old version12:33
ograyes12:33
ograupstream version freeze...12:33
hughsiethe maintianer of g-s-s only fixed the bug in dpms last week12:33
hughsieand i only added support for locking then hibernating a couple of weeks ago12:34
ograthe maintainer would be me... that was mjg59 who fixed that12:34
hughsieogra: okay, nice one!12:34
ograupstream version freeze locked the version down... that was a matter of luck that it was updated :)12:35
hughsiegood show12:35
ajmitchluck & pain ;)12:35
hughsiein (new ubuntu devel tree) are you going to ship a more up2date g-p-m?12:35
ograuntil UVF again... its always a matter of the release schedule....12:36
hughsiesure, no worries12:36
hughsieyou def shipping hal 0.5.5?12:36
ograthe one for dapper will probably be more strict, because we'll have 3 year support12:37
ograis 0.5.5 out ?12:37
hughsienot yet, give it a week12:37
hughsiegot *lots* of fixes form 0.5.412:37
hughsieall over the shop12:37
ajmitchogra: something we need to discuss for MOTU as well12:37
ograso it wil be int i think12:37
hughsiegood :-)12:38

ograajmitch, lets just go with the schedule for motu12:38
=== ajmitch will try & set some time aside for the MOTU meeting on tursday (for me)
ajmitchogra: sure, but we'll need to put in a couple of extra milestones for us, imho12:38
sivangajmitch: MOTU and the 3 years support policy that is?12:38
ajmitchotherwise we'll have a crazy time in the last 2 months again12:39
ajmitchsivang: MOTU & UVF - we want to have universe in extra-good shape for dapper12:39
HiddenWolfI think universe UVF would be good. :)12:39
ograyes, for dapper it would12:39
ografor breezy it wouldnt have been achievable12:40
HiddenWolfTrue, due to the conversions.12:40
HiddenWolfbut people upping new versions till the release day was kinda odd. :)12:40
infinityA universe UVF one month after main's UVF sounds reasonable.12:40
sivangogra: what are plans for MOTU stuff over UBZ?12:40
HiddenWolfAnyhow, need to go. bye12:40
infinity(Though you're welcome to freeze at the same time, if you think you'll be able to do all your syncs/merges on time)12:40
ograinfinity++12:40
ograwe're not enough people to cope with the real dates, but a month extra sounds like a great idea12:41
infinityWell, I expect we may want to discuss Universe a bit at UBZ anyway.12:42
infinityAt least, Universe for dapper.12:42
infinityNot Universe in general.12:42
ajmitchyep12:42
ajmitchso much good stuff that people want is in universe12:42
infinityIn general, Universe is unsupported, archive locks down when we release, the end, sucks to be you.  And I'm cool with that.12:42
ajmitchthen we beg to put fixes in -updates, etc12:43
infinityBut for a 3/5-year supported release, we may want to pay a bit more attention to make sure the unsupported Universe at least gets enough love to not be a mess at release time.12:43
ajmitchyou wouldn't be able to recruit another 50 MOTUs for us, would you?12:43
=== Lathiat grins
infinityNo, but there are ways to make it workable.12:43
ajmitchogra: might be time to put out a recruitment mail to the users & devel lists12:44
ograyup12:44
infinityKeep your diffs from Debian very small, make sure meges are something that you can do in 5 minutes, not an hours.12:44
infinity(And I mean to smack someone around about the diff thing too)12:44
Lathiatwhich diff thing?12:44
Lathiatajmitch: we both need to harass people into sending appropriate patches to debain12:44
Lathiaterr, debian12:44
infinityI've seen many MANY MOTU uploads now that add a patch system for the sake of adding a 4-line patch to the Debian source.12:45
LaserJockwhat about having a level of contribution below MOTU for people to join?12:45
LaserJockMOTU can be intimidating12:45
Lathiatinfinity: well, thats the advise lots of people seemed to be giving out...12:45
infinitySo, instead of 4 lines in the diff.gz, you now have a 4-line patch, a build-dep on dpatch (debian/control), and a diff to debian/rules.12:45
infinitySeems counter-productive to me.12:45
Lathiati thought so to12:45
Lathiatbut others didn't seem to think so12:45
ajmitchinfinity: yes, we've been discussing that12:45
infinityajmitch : I can merge a package with a 4-line Debian-Ubuntu diff in about 3 seconds.12:45
infinityajmitch : One with debian/rules and debian/control mangled is more likely to conflict and cause Real Work to happen.  Ew.12:46
ajmitchyep12:46
ajmitchI've done a number of uploads with just applying the patch, rather than using dpatch12:46
crimsunwhat about changes to source?12:46
ajmitchcrimsun: that can still be separated out without dpatch12:47
infinitycrimsun : What about them?... That's what the diff.gz is FOR.12:47
infinityThe only time it makes sense to use a patch system is when there's already one there in Debian.12:47
crimsuninfinity: that's what I use; if there's one in place, I use it.12:47
infinity(Or when we have a LOT of changes between Debian and Ubuntu, but that's terribly rare, and usually only happens in main)12:47
Lathiaton that note, it should be required in the debian policy ;)12:47
crimsunthere are some packages that already use dpatch that are simply unmaintainable if I apply the changes directly to the source without using dpatch12:48
ajmitchcrimsun: that's fine, they already use dpatch12:48
Lathiatcrimsun: as infinity said, if it already uses dpatch its fine12:48
infinitycrimsun : Well, yes, obviously.  If the packages uses a patch system, use that.12:48
infinitycrimsun : I'm saying, don't ADD one.12:48
ajmitchmost of the patches we did were for gcc 4.0 issues12:48
Lathiathopefully alot of that will clear up in dapper12:49
crimsunok, so I misunderstood the intent, and I was following the guidelines all along. Nothing new, nothing to see here. :-)12:49
infinityThe gcc-4.0 patches shold all clear up in dapper, or mostly so.12:49
infinityThe libGL changes are something we'll have to carry for anothe release, probably, unless gravity gets Xorg 7.0 in Debian the day it's released upstream.12:50
infinityAside from gcc-4 and libGL, we shouldn't have that many diffs.12:50
Lathiatmm, theyre a bit of a hassle12:50
Lathiatbecause those lines have a habbit of changing12:50
Lathiat= effort :)12:51
infinityIndeed.12:51
infinityI'm hoping we can get them sorted in Debian ASAP, so you can drop your patches there.12:51
ajmitchand those few dbus-using packages12:51
ajmitchanother large set we carry is for default python version 12:52
LaserJockwhat is the general policy about sending ubuntu patches to Debian maintainers? If I make a *ubuntu1 or something like that should I be emailing the Debian maintainer?12:52
LathiatLaserJock: well, it depends12:52
dokoajmitch: python will clear up as well12:52
Lathiatwhether it applies to debian or not12:52
infinitypython versions in Debian shuld jump soon.12:52
ajmitchdoko: will debian go for 2.4 or 2.5 as default?12:52
Lathiate.g. libGL, dbus dont12:52
infinityLaserJock : If you're fixing a bug that applies to Debian too, please forward it to them.12:53
ajmitchdoko: I haven't heard any rumours of a shift, but I haven't kept track12:53
dokoajmitch: first 2.412:53
infinityLaserJock : If it's Ubuntu-specific (ie: packaging related), obviously don't.12:53
LaserJockok, that is what I figured, I just wanted to clear that up12:53
ajmitchdoko: great, that'll ease the merge load then12:54
infinityUniverse should ideally deviate from Debian as little as possible, or you guys will be up shit creek.12:55
Lathiatany ideas on dates for python?12:55
infinity1000 Debian developers can be reasonably helpful, but not if we keep reinventing the wheel with a couple dozen MOTUs.12:55
Lathiatalso dbus sicne thats now in experimental12:55
Lathiatjust wondering about initial merging efforts being wasted12:56
infinityIt mostly comes down to Debian release managers trying to manage transitions one or two at a time, so sid -> etch testing migration doesn't become such a massive tangle that nothing moves.12:56
infinitySo, dbus will probably get a green light once the C++ transition looks good, etc.12:57
infinityDebian moves a bit slower than Ubuntu with this sort of thing, unfortunately.12:57
infinityI have a feeling doko will be pushing for the python transition pretty soon, though. :)12:58
LaserJockdoko: did you fix Malone #3123 ?12:58

LaserJockwell, that is what I am wondering. I was thinking of trying figure it out. I'm not personally worried about it01:11

Amaranthany guess on when 7.0 will actually release? from the sound of it waiting for 7.1 would be better08:10
Burgundaviadaniels, would it have been saner to release a monolithic 6.8.2 and to wait for 7.0 for dapper?08:10
AmaranthBurgundavia: 7.0 was supposed to make it in time for breezy, with time to spare08:11
jsgotangco7.0 it'll be fun08:11
HiddenWolfBurgundavia, I guess someone needed to make the plunge and break it up, learn from the experience, and get upstream better about it. :)08:11
Burgundaviaya, that is what I figured08:12
danielsBurgundavia: the plan was to do 7.0 for breezy; it was only after we'd gone far far far far too far to go back that it was decided to defer the rest of 7.0 to dapper08:13
Amaranthyeah, i think we were the guinea pigs for modular X :)08:13
danielsAmaranth: 7.0 is supposed to release 'soon'.  we're hoping for rc1 this week.08:13
HiddenWolfwell, only gripe i've got with breezy is that it hardlocks the system when I try running the binary nvidia drivers. Worked out damn well. Props to Daniels. :)08:13
danielsAmaranth: after it was decided that we weren't going to do X for breezy, I more or less stopped release-related work on 7.0 (you have no idea how not fun it is), and we started pursuing a less aggressive schedule.08:14
HiddenWolfAmaranth, besides, the changelogs where a blast to read. :)08:14
danielsHiddenWolf: heh, thanks08:14
Amaranthi guess i never paid attention to them08:15

bob2"gnome 2.12"08:22
Lathiatno because the inbuilt one sucks08:22
Amaranthno, 2.12's gmenu-simple-editor only lets you show/hide existing entries08:22

zakamepitti: that would be fine for my current setup, but think about other setups where downloading isn't easy01:21
infinityI have a feeling breezy's lack of kernel compiler has more to do with it not being explicitely seeded, because we always used to ship "gcc" and the headers (and probably still do)01:22
Kamionyeah01:22
Kamionneither explicitly seeded nor (build-)depended-upon01:22
pittizakame: I know, but we need to fit a good desktop on the CD, we can't ship all development stuff, too01:22
Lathiati had that issue at uni the other day01:22
Lathiatneeded to compile a cisco pn client01:22
Lathiat*vpn01:22
pittizakame: but you can use the DVDs if you need everything off-line01:22
Lathiatand couldnt get to an archive unless i did01:22
pittizakame: also, maybe we can build future kernels with the default compiler again01:23
zakamepitti: that could do, but i'm a wimp and i don't have a dvd drive at hand :(01:23
zakamei am saving up for a dvd combo drive though :)01:23
fabbioneKamion: well the kernel must B-D on gcc-3.4 and it does..01:24
pittizakame: compiling your module with 4.0 doesn't work?01:24
Lathiatpitti: no, why should it?01:24
Lathiatthe kernel is compiled with 3.401:24
pittiLathiat: so what?01:24
Lathiatand trying to load a module compiled with 4.0 the kernel will bark at you01:24
zakamepitti: works, but the versioning detection of the kernel prevents it to work01:25
pittiLathiat: oh, I didn't know that - there is no intrinsical reason why it should01:25
pittiprobably just a safety measure then01:25
Lathiatpitti: yeh the kernel includes gcc version and some other stuff in the module01:25
Lathiatyou can override it01:25
infinityYou can always force insertion, if you really need something to work.01:25
infinityBut it'd still be nice to have kgcc on the CD.01:25
zakamehmmm, pardon my ignorance, but how do I do force insmod again?01:26
infinityToo late for breezy at any rate, so not much point in whining about it.  I suspect one or more of us will remember for dapper.01:26

=== infinity wonders if we could add a "kgcc" meta/symlink package to gcc-defaults, to more easily identify/select the kernel compiler.
=== infinity looks at doko.
zakameso, the other solution for breezy would be to get linux-sources and kernel-package, right?01:27
Lathiatis it possible dappers kernel might be compiled with gcc4?01:28
infinityUnlikely.01:28
infinityI doubt that gcc4 will like the kernel (or the kernel like gcc4) any more with the next minor revision of each.01:29
dokoinfinity: good idea, but that should be built from a separate source. I don't mess around with kernel maintainers, which compilers should be used01:31

sivangs/HI/Hi/02:12
mvozyga:  deb  http://people.ubuntu.com/~jbailey/snapshot/bzr ./02:12
Mithrandirpitti: what do I need to twiddle to get back my old permissions in /proc/bus/usb?  This was changed fairly late in the breezy cycle, iirc?02:12
pittiMithrandir: actually not, it works that way since warty02:12
pittiMithrandir: what are your "old" permissions?02:13
dokofabbione: it's not X ;-P02:13
mvosivang: oh, thanks. looks like a lot of people are interessed in this02:13
Mithrandirpitti: some g+rw at least.  I don't want to run gpg as root to access my openpgp card.02:13
pittiMithrandir: uh, I only ever dealt with libsane and libgphoto, not with other USB crack02:13
Mithrandirpitti: .. what was the fix in sane?02:15
sivangmvo: yes I know :) 02:15
sivangmvo: this would also help me reduce 90% of the noise about that over my local community02:15
pittiMithrandir: the real fix is to drop all these hotplug scripts, usermaps, and accessing of /proc/bus/usb by apps02:15
zygamvo: bzrtools?02:15
zygathat's the packge?02:15
mvozyga: yes02:15
pittiMithrandir: and instead use udev to create a proper device in /dev, and make libsane/libgphoto use it02:16
sivangzyga: what's the gnome-translation-providers app going to do?02:16
zygasivang: ah, that's a long story02:16
Mithrandirpitti: and the "I just want this to work, dammit" fix is just to what the hotplug scripts?02:16
zygasivang: check my blog for initial idea: http://www.suxx.pl/blog/index.php/next-generation-l10n-system/02:16
mptarg02:16
pittiMithrandir: libsane intermediately switched to a hotplug.d script, which brkoe02:16

Mithrandirpitti: etc/hotplug is teh new and shiny now, right?02:17
pittiMithrandir: so I switched it back to /etc/hotplug/usb/libsane, as in hoary and warty02:17

zygamvo: will do02:18
Mithrandirpitti: are those scanned on each udev event, so I can just hack it, or do I need to reboot and such?02:19
zygampt: trivial use case: I'm paid by an organization to translate evolution, they need to get up-to-date messages every day, after my work is done I can upload everything upstream02:19
zygampt: another use case: I collaborate with a group of friends and provide translations for interesting applications, upstream denies updates as they feel our work is insignificant/bad02:19

infinityDiziet : Because gs-gpl doesn't support all the same crap, apparently.04:32
infinityDiziet : A gs-esp based on the current gs-gpl version would be nice, at least.  A unified package would be nicer.04:32
elmoironically theonly thing that d or b-d on gs-esp is *-desktop04:33
bddebian??04:33
infinityelmo : Yeah, and that's an | dep.04:33
elmo(in main)04:33
infinityelmo : gs-esp and gs-gpl are (meant to be) interchangeable.04:33
elmoinfinity: oh is it?  hum, I thought melanie knew about them, but apparently not04:33
infinityWe could kick -esp to universe, though, and still have the | dep in -desktop, no?04:34
DizietWhat I mean is, why would anyone want gs-esp ?  breezy's gs-esp is _7.07_ !04:34
Yagisanbddebian: will that break my existing gnucash accounts ?04:34
infinityelmo : Oh, I lie, it's not an | in -desktop...04:34
elmoyeah, I was going to ask how the auto-meta-creation stuff created an | 04:35
Diziet7.07 is hopelessly full of crashy stuff.04:35
infinitySo, if you install gs-gpl, you have -gpl and -esp installed together.04:35
Kamioninfinity: er ... -desktop doesn't do |-deps04:35
DizietYes, and the alternatives are set to prefer gs-esp.04:35
infinityKamion : Yeah, I realised that after I said it.04:35
Kamiongs-esp's in desktop as a consequence of the germinate workaround to make sure we put only one gs-* on CDs04:36
KamionI don't really care which it is - it was a doko thing, IIRC04:36
infinityDiziet : There's a shiny new gs-esp in sid.04:36

bddebianOf course TB would probably hunt me down and kill me too ;-)04:37
infinityDiziet : Based on gs-gpl 8.15, which is also the current sid version.04:37
infinityDiziet : So, that should make patching and such easier.  But I still don't necessarily see a reason to keep both in main.04:38
Dizietinf: Yes, we might be lucky this time.  I think in general the whole gs versions thing is a nightmare.04:38
Kamionbddebian: I don't see why the TB would care about a new gnucash in dapper/universe04:38
Kamionbddebian: although shipping development versions is on your own head if it turns out badly04:39
dholbachbddebian: is xmms the only thing in main that wants gnome1?04:39
infinityDiziet : Well, if someone could convince the two upstreams to merge their respective forks again...04:39
elmoxmms doesn't use gnome1?04:39
elmoit uses gtk104:39
hungerIs xmms even in ubuntu-desktop?04:39
DizietWhich one is the real upstream ?  esp keep taking new gs-gsl's.04:39
Diziets/gsl/gpl04:40
jdubno, but it's in main04:40
infinityDiziet : gs-gpl is the true ghostscript upstream, but ESP (the upstream for CUPS) does heavy modification to make it more CUPS-friendly, and they include new drivers and such.04:40
infinityDiziet : At this point, they've been forking and re-merging for so long, it's almost as much fun as asking which of NetBSD or OpenBSD is the "real upstream"04:40
diemanmorning.04:41
DizietThe CUPS-friendliness doesn't seem relevant any more, although it might once have been.  I mean, you can install only gs-gpl and your CUPS will still work fine.04:41
DizietThe driver thing is _really annoying_.04:42
hungerjdub: What is the criteria of something being in main? I thought it was being a dependency for one of the ubuntu metapackages?04:44

Kamioner, "no maintenance activity in Ubuntu", I mean06:52
ograKamion, i never give up hope ;)06:52

infinityjbailey : Oh, all this booting with various different command line options also leads me to believe there's a (cosmetic) bug in how you/I interpreted "quiet" in initramfs.  The output sent to usplash isn't the same as what you get on the console with no usplash.  I'll fix that in dapper.07:00

hkais3.0 supports already vanderpool, which will be important for me....07:00

ograbddebian, the thing is that i see similar symproms with something like ssh -X user@othermachine firefox (nopn ltsp)09:29
ograso i think its something in ssh's X forwarding that is stuck... since its not only triggered by Xsession it seems09:30

jbaileyajmitch: Heya.  You mentioned that you had initramfs-tools selinux patches for me. =)09:47
ajmitchjbailey: I did?09:47
ajmitchjbailey: I said I wanted to discuss how to do it, I haven't worked on patches yet :)09:47
jbaileyajmitch: Oh, I see. =)09:48
ajmitchsorry to disappoint :)09:48
jbaileyajmitch: Not at all.09:48
jbaileyWhat do you need? =)09:48
jbaileyI thought you had said before that most of the setup took place in init, so pre-init things didn't have to worry much.09:48
ajmitchyeah09:49
ajmitchbut what runs in pre-init?09:49
ajmitchand how much more do you plan to put in there for dapper?09:49
jbaileyajmitch: Whatever people feel like putting in there, that's the trick.09:49

ajmitchhow much of /dev is populated there at the moment?09:50
jbaileyajmitch: Much of it.09:50
HiddenWolfsabdfl, what's up with the mail clients?09:50
jbaileyajmitch: It will probably be less for dapper, but you've at least got ttys, null, and the devices for mounting.09:50
sabdflHiddenWolf: i'm trying to ensure consistency09:50
ograsabdfl, Mithrandir does if he didnt give it away09:50
ajmitchthe trick is to have files created from initramfs to have the right security context afterwards09:50
sabdflMithrandir: how would you fel about making enigmail a default install with t-bird?09:51
HiddenWolfsabdfl, thunderbird is playing a far different ballgame from evo. :)09:51
HiddenWolfsabdfl, and no, no pgp, without extentions. 09:51
jbaileyajmitch: Oh, like in the /dev that gets migrated to the running system?09:51
ajmitchso either have a minimal policy before /dev is populated, or relabel them before they're accessed when policy is loaded :)09:51
ajmitchjbailey: I mainly want the system to be bootable & not open up holes accidentally09:52
Mithrandirsabdfl: that'd be fine with me.09:52
jbaileyajmitch: Right.  I don't know enough about selinux there.09:52
jbaileyajmitch: What happens right now:09:52
jbaileyajmitch: We start, mount a tmpfs on /dev, and run udevstart.09:52
sabdflhmm... Mithrandir on second thoughts, its probably a bit too tech09:52
jbaileyajmitch: Other things can do as they see fit in there.09:53
Mithrandirsabdfl: oh, why?  It tends to keep out of the way unless you get encrypted mails?09:53
jbaileyAt the end of the whole thing, we mount -o move /dev /root/dev09:53
sabdflMithrandir: its a whole extra menu for people to get lost in09:53
jbaileySo that the devices that we're using now are all present on the target system.09:53
HiddenWolfMithrandir, it adds a lot of clutter to TB interface09:53
Mithrandirsabdfl: true.09:53
ajmitchjbailey: if init loads a policy in enforcing mode & device nodes aren't labelled, then things are fairly likely to head south09:53
jbaileyajmitch: Taht lets us do clever things, like have a usplash socket up, or keep debug informatio around. =)09:54
ajmitchmmm09:54
MithrandirHiddenWolf: I wouldn't call it a lot of clutter, but I'm not going to argue that very hard. :-)09:54
ajmitchsounds like it could be good fun then :)09:54
HiddenWolfMithrandir, first time I booted it with enigmail, I was "wtf!"09:54
MithrandirHiddenWolf: you know you've lost when you "boot" your mail client. :-P09:54
