Why not just ship them in a .deb? === slomo_ [n=slomo@ubuntu/member/slomo] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:05] infinity: because the directories need to be created on the root filesystem [10:05] not on whatever filesystem happens to be mounted on /var :) [10:06] so there's a bit of bind-mount-magic [10:06] otherwise one can't mount /var/run or /var/lock until after you've mounted /var [10:06] Keybuk: But nothing should need either until /var exists anyway.. No? [10:06] no [10:07] the point of /var/run and /var/lock is that they're writable places for the entire boot [10:07] /var isn't mounted until reasonably late [10:07] This was never a problem before all this hackery began.. [10:07] certainly well after things like udev, ifupdown, dhclient, ntpdate, etc. are running [10:07] I never had anythig that wanted to write to /var/run before /var was mounted. [10:07] it wasn't a problem until we started relying on udev [10:07] Oh, I see. Ick. === Mithrandir wonders when we should stop tweaking cupsd.conf. It's getting annoying to get conffile prompts about it each and every day. [10:08] once you rely on udev, you need a tmpfs for pid files === looksaus [n=mark@86-39-96-252.customer.fulladsl.be] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:08] otherwise there's a bit of a chicken and egg problem [10:09] if udev is creating /dev nodes and starting services, then it can't start services until after the device node for any filesystem they need has been created [10:09] the two options to fix it were [10:10] a) two partial udevplugs during boot, one to deal with important nodes and then one after filesystems are mounted and checked to actually start things [10:10] b) just make /var/run a tmpfs [10:10] a has the obvious problem you can't have an NFS /usr ;) [10:11] Yeah, I see the issue now. It's just all rather icky. :) [10:11] actually, I think it's somewhat elegant [10:11] having a tmpfs for pid files makes sense [10:11] as you never need them after reboot *anyway* [10:12] and we've since been able to use /var/run as a "transient" directory [10:12] Oh, no, having it as a tmpfs makes sense. It's the bindmount moving trickery that's icky. [10:12] it solved the ifup-using-/etc bug, for example [10:12] oh, yah, that bit was icky [10:12] but it's only done once, at install time [10:13] hi all, I'm a bit hesitant to interrupt you in what must be _very_ busy days, but... [10:14] I think I might have reported a major ppc bug in gecko based browsersalmost four weeks ago, and I'm not certain it got the attention needed [10:15] I have confirmation from at least one other powerpc users [10:15] https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/40067 [10:15] Malone bug 40067 in firefox "firefox freezes after a few secs on ppc" [Normal,Unconfirmed] === SubNet [n=kai@dslb-084-056-150-107.pools.arcor-ip.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel === pvanhoof [n=pvanhoof@mailhost.newtec.be] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:16] it basicly makes the major desktop component unusable, so looks quite serious to me...

[10:37] You sorta don't want to crush his enthusiasm. [10:37] He's basically removing whitespace from XML files, right? [10:38] he's not doing anything useful [10:38] Treenaks: Yes. [10:38] Keybuk: I think I might prefer to do it in partman while it's mounting filesystems [10:38] less hacky [10:38] he's deleting xml files with rm -rf in his script [10:38] sfllaw: he claims that his schemas change speed-up applications but schemas are only used at installation [10:38] Kamion: yeah, that might be more appropriate; I wasn't sure I was up for touching partman closely [10:38] Parsing text files takes almost no time. [10:38] but was sure you'd prefer a solution available, whether you chose it or not [10:38] seb128: he's probably seeing disk-cached startup instead of non-cached startup [10:38] you want the iftab change though :) [10:39] Keybuk: nod, just merging that now [10:39] right [10:39] Treenaks: likley [10:39] but I would appreciate him not trying to push stuff to user than can break their gconf database but playing with the .xml [10:40] Keybuk: would it be considered evil if cupsys' init script would load 'lp' and 'ppdev' modules? [10:40] pitti: not especially evil, no [10:40] Keybuk: I get thousands of bugs due to a missing lp module, and ppdev fixes parallel printer autodetection [10:42] carlos, hello amigo, question: will Kubuntu (KDE) imported into rosetta ? === ompaul [n=ompaul@ubuntu/member/ompaul] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:42] AlinuxOS: it's already there === persia [n=persia@p3181-ipbf1107marunouchi.tokyo.ocn.ne.jp] has joined #ubuntu-devel === Gman [n=gman@nwkea-socks-1.sun.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:43] carlos: I should do an announcement to the KDE translators [10:43] Riddell: new langpacks are scheduled for tomorrow, btw [10:43] Riddell: I'm should do the global announcement for Dapper, don't worry [10:43] s/I'm/I/ [10:43] pitti: cool, that should please lots of people [10:43] pitti: could we do it weekly automatically? [10:44] pitti: I noticed you have targeted the 2 CDROM issue for dapper. Do you have a test case, or could I help collect necessary data? [10:44] I think you said is possible but that you need some extra scripts [10:45] carlos, is there Kubuntu page ? [10:45] carlos: not fully automatically, but I can do automatic builds, so I only need to grab and test them, and upload if appropriate [10:45] persia: currently I don't even understand the bug yet, but it shouldn't be hard to fix once I do; helping with explaining the issue in detail would be highly appreciated [10:45] AlinuxOS: no, sorry, is all together with other Ubuntu packages [10:45] persia: it just seems worth to be fixed in dapper [10:46] https://launchpad.net/distros here I mean [10:46] sh [10:46] AlinuxOS: we will improve it to split packages per context, like GNOME, KDE, XFCE and base [10:46] AlinuxOS: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/dapper/+translations [10:46] ah so the is no kubuntu refference at the moment. I understand now. [10:46] AlinuxOS: right, KUbuntu uses Ubuntu's archive [10:47] I understand.. :) [10:47] so you will separate them right ? [10:47] in near future. === raphink [n=raphink@ubuntu/member/raphink] has joined #ubuntu-devel [10:47] AlinuxOS: what language will you be translating into? [10:47] pitti: OK. I'll try to describe it again differently in the bug, in the hopes of providing an explanation. Feel free to ping me if you have questions. [10:49] persia: thanks; a detailed description of the devices, fstab, and steps how to get the bug would rock [10:49] https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/dapper/+lang/ka Riddell at the moment I'm Georgian GNOME Translators team coordinator/translator and Ubuntu Team translator/administrator and great Ubuntu Distribution User :) [10:50] Ubuntu Lover/User/Translator :) [10:51] mdz: btw, wrt your meeting question, my dapper-6.06 bug list is now up to date === persia [n=persia@p3181-ipbf1107marunouchi.tokyo.ocn.ne.jp] has left #ubuntu-devel [] [10:52] carlos, when will you sepparate GNOME/KDE in Dapper distribution ? [10:53] AlinuxOS: I don't have it scheduled yet [10:53] carlos, ok :) [10:53] but when it's done will be done for all releases [10:53] at the same time [10:53] I don't know if that's a good idea, would probably mean less translations for Kubuntu [10:53] great [10:54] so there is no decided package list for future Dapper CD ? [10:54] carlos, could you think about making separate kdeedu langpacks for edgy ? it would help edubuntu a lot in case we cant drop kdeedu then [10:54] Riddell, why ? [10:55] ogra: langpacks are done by pitti [10:55] ogra: that's a question for pitti === j^_ is now known as j^ [10:55] ah, k [10:55] i'll keep it for paris then :) [10:55] ogra: yes, let's discuss that there [10:55] AlinuxOS: I wonder if ubuntu users would then not bother to translate kubuntu packages [10:55] ogra: we can certainly find a good solution [10:55] yep [10:55] Riddell: we are not going to split the packages outside Ubuntu, we are going to classify them [10:56] I was asked some days ago, there was some group of person that wanted to translate Kubuntus specific packages. [10:56] well, the best one would be to be able to drop the kde stuff :) [10:56] Riddell: so you can see if a package is a GNOME, KDE, XFCE, or system package [10:56] and concentrate on the set of packages you are insterested [10:57] Riddell, if you want the truh :) Sadly in georgia there is more KDE/Kubuntu users than GNOME users :) (It our specific situation) [10:57] don't know for other teams :) [10:57] Most of our stuff gets translated upstream (Dutch) [10:58] so I'm sure that there will be more Kubuntu translators then Ubuntu/GNOME translators. [10:58] excellent :) [10:58] carlos, a question: is it possible to translate Ubuntu Live Espresso installer into Georgian ? [10:59] and if it possible, how? [10:59] AlinuxOS: yes, espresso is called ubiquity now [10:59] great [10:59] AlinuxOS: translate the debian installer [10:59] AlinuxOS: the translations are integrated there [10:59] https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/dapper/+source/k3b/+pots/k3b/ka/+translate is there K3b package ?

[11:01] ah ok [11:02] carlos, and how about k3b, I have ka.po file rady :) [11:03] https://launchpad.net/products/?text=ubiquity Riddell can't find ubiquity, maybe it's not imported at the moment? [11:03] AlinuxOS: upload it and the next language pack build will get it [11:03] AlinuxOS: it's a distro package [11:03] carlos, allredy done [11:03] that's a search form for packages [11:04] fabbione: my sister got a kitten a couple of weeks ago [11:04] ...the dog ate it yesterday [11:04] AlinuxOS: ignore me, as carlos says it's debian-installer that needs translated, ubiquity uses the strings from that [11:04] Keybuk, huh ?

I can't see anywhere where pam /could/ set it to unlimited, though [11:42] isn't "0" actually -20 [11:42] Keybuk: No [11:42] oh, no, 0 would be 20 [11:42] Well, 19 [11:43] limit_value = 19 - limit_value; [11:43] mjg59: the kernel tends to do 20 - value [11:43] though doesn't seem to on that === Keybuk boggles his way through can_nice [11:44] Keybuk: From the userspace point of view, it's -20 to +19 [11:44] yeah, from kernel pov it's 1 to 40 isn't it? [11:44] Yes [11:44] pam sets all limits to RLIM_INFINITY by default [11:44] (init_limits) [11:44] Kamion: Doh. Right. [11:44] That'll be the problem, then. [11:45] though only if getrlimit() returns -1 [11:45] (so why is getrlimit() returning -1 if the kernel sets a default?) [11:45] Kamion: Unsure === Gloubiboulga [n=gauvain@ubuntu/member/gloubiboulga] has joined #ubuntu-devel [11:45] would be nice to see an strace of pam_limits in action [11:46] init_limits has a few manual overrides anyway (core, stack); if that's the problem it's simple to add to them [11:46] Kamion: wrt. bug 14597, my current plan is to add all gimp-help-* but the -en one to the language-support-* packages, so that we can fix the bug at least for all non-English speakers; do you think it would be appropriate to change the seeds to not add l-support-en to the CD (and only seed a subset instead)? [11:46] Malone bug 14597 in gimp "Gimp help files are not installed by default" [Wishlist,Confirmed] http://launchpad.net/bugs/14597 [11:46] hmm [11:46] I read init_limits the other way [11:47] I read it as setting to RLIM_INFINITY if it's NOT already -1 [11:47] er, yeah, good point [11:47] int r = getrlimit(i, &pl->limits[i] .limit); [11:47] if (r == -1) { [11:47] I think I need breakfast, coffee, and *then* pam hacking [11:47] } else { [11:47] pl->limits[i] .limit.rlim_cur = RLIM_INFINITY; [11:47] strace doesn't know about RLIMIT_NICE, but: [11:47] 22400 getrlimit(0xd /* RLIMIT_??? */, {rlim_cur=RLIM_INFINITY, rlim_max=RLIM_INFINITY}) = 0 [11:47] this kind of hacking is the best coffee :) [11:47] 22400 getrlimit(0xe /* RLIMIT_??? */, {rlim_cur=RLIM_INFINITY, rlim_max=RLIM_INFINITY}) = 0 [11:47] nice is 13 [11:47] er, 0xd [11:48] I'm quite curious about these "speed up Ubuntu" emails, does anyone know why 2 copies of each mail are arriving to the various mailing lists included? === Fjodor [n=sune@0x55510b65.adsl.cybercity.dk] has joined #ubuntu-devel [11:48] So getrlimit returns 0 and it gets set to RLIM_INFINITY? [11:48] that's just setting up data structures [11:48] where does it setrlimit ? [11:49] 22400 setrlimit(0xd /* RLIMIT_??? */, {rlim_cur=RLIM_INFINITY, rlim_max=RLIM_INFINITY}) = 0 [11:49] oh, it does them all in setup_limits [11:49] Blatantly PAM [11:49] Yay I win [11:49] is it just me or is pam also using the 2.6.12 (broken) off-by-one semantics for nice? [11:49] mjg59: as a reward, you get to fix it :p [11:49] infinity: new evdev is in and should fix the FTBFS at least on ia64..

I'm a bit worried that a user exploring the system will end up going in there and fiddling and thereby cause great confusion. [12:18] Malone bug 43687 in casper "Should make unionfs COW filesystem visible from userspace" [Wishlist,Unconfirmed] http://launchpad.net/bugs/43687 [12:18] and there's no reason to name moint points of removable disks in /etc/fstab [12:19] right, hal does that [12:19] right [12:19] so why put them in /etc/fstab? [12:19] they're in /etc/mtab [12:20] so? [12:20] there's lots of things in /etc/mtab that aren't in /etc/fstab [12:20] mtab stands for "mounted filesystems" === stub [n=stub@ppp-58.8.3.78.revip2.asianet.co.th] has joined #ubuntu-devel [12:20] pitti: ? [12:20] /dev, /dev/shm, /var/run, /var/lock, /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/volatile [12:20] mtab stands for "why is this file still here? why hasn't it gone away yet?" [12:20] :) [12:21] Keybuk: I think the point is that the umount script is handling entries with spaces in /etc/mtab wrongly [12:21] ahh [12:21] fstab was an incorrect distraction [12:21] I'm reading the bug wrong [12:21] if we could use "umount -a" it'd all be fine, but we try to keep certain filesystems mounted, so have to parse mtab manually [12:22] yeah, got it now === Keybuk isn't awake anymore [12:23] the implementation of the patch is kinda icky though [12:24] especially relying on bash [12:24] Keybuk: the first patch works in dash, but it's equally messy :) === nomed [n=nomed@host124-124.pool872.interbusiness.it] has joined #ubuntu-devel [12:25] hi all [12:25] i'm not sure if this is a bug ... [12:26] anyway if i try to install latest lvm2 on a chrooted dapper .. where the host is a sarge i get an error [12:26] it seems the preinst script uses uname -r [12:28] iegary: the same kind of patch does need to be applied to anything parsing fstab too (which there's a lot of) [12:29] Keybuk: why aren't people just using getfsent? :-) [12:30] Mithrandir: from shell? :p [12:30] Keybuk: well, point. [12:30] Keybuk: okay if you're happy with the format (read -r, sed using multiple -e expressions) then I'll do the patches [12:30] actually, there's an idea here [12:30] Keybuk: awk would have been handier, but didn't want to add extra dependencies [12:30] a getfsent tool would do the job [12:30] a little helper binary to do the unmounting might be appropriate [12:30] snap [12:31] likewise getmntent [12:31] nomed: Doesn't seem buggy to me.. [12:31] I would prefer that infinitely to munging stuff with sed, and the numerous backslash behaviours hidden therein [12:31] infinity, but the previous was working ..

[12:33] but yes .. it's not common i understand [12:33] nomed: Then you might just want to bite the bullet and install a kernel >= 2.6.12 in the base system. [12:33] mjg59: i. e. we'll add a 'check-foreground-console' suid root program to libpam-foreground and directly query that in g-{p,v}-m [12:33] nomed: Lots of packages check kernel versions on installation, it's just unfortunate that this one is biting you today. === Keybuk wonders how many times this has been tripped on little :p [12:33] Mithrandir: how about having it on /cow but only if a boot option is specified? that would be the least risk [12:33] infinity, ok [12:34] mdz: only if we also have a /gate [12:34] Keybuk: little (not lithium) doesn't install stuff in chroots. [12:34] s/not/now/ [12:34] i'd like to check why the previous version was not giving me such problem [12:34] nomed, a liveCD for ex ? like in /usr/bin/ex ?? [12:34] mdz: that'd work. I've been toying with ideas like /media/.cow or /casper/cow, but those aren't very pretty, imo. [12:34] nomed: Because the previous version probably didn't have the kernel version check, and your kernel is << 2.6.12 === Keybuk heads for the shower [12:36] infinity, that's sure .. :) [12:36] last question ... [12:36] i's just like to understand this better .. [12:36] why udev doesn't check the kernel in such way ? [12:37] i guess it needs a kver >= 2.6.12 too .. [12:37] Keybuk: Yeah, why doesn't it? :) [12:38] nomed: because it works with < 2.6.12 [12:38] klugez: ok, pam 0.79-3ubuntu13 uploaded, correcting the broken nice rlimits; upgrade should be available in about two hours [12:38] klugez: thanks again for the report [12:38] well [12:38] I say "works" [12:39] assuming your 2.6.12 initramfs didn't get blown apart [12:39] then the userland fails nicely [12:39] # We need the uevent support introduced in 2.6.15, bail out if we [12:39] # don't have it and fall back to a static /dev [12:39] if [ ! -f /sys/class/mem/null/uevent ] ; then [12:39] so I check whether the kernel has true support, rather than just its version number [12:39] infinity: how is the new evdev doing? [12:40] Keybuk, k thanks [12:40] thank you all [12:40] the fact that the initramfs gets blown apart is infinity's fault, and he sucks and STILL hasn't fixed it [12:40] Kamion: wow, that was fast :) [12:40] fabbione: Not building yet. [12:40] infinity: ok [12:41] Keybuk: Thpt. [12:41] infinity: now, stop masturbating, and get to work! [12:41] Keybuk: I'm in the process of fixing several dozen "initramfs blows up on major upgrades" bugs here. I blame jbailey. [12:41] infinity: I like the ones where you get just enough of an initramfs to print an error message [12:42] but not enough to give you a shell [12:42] Yeah, those are special. [12:43] wouldn't it be great if rather than having one initramfs, we just had a whole selection of them [12:43] and the boot loader just picked up every little cpio file and joined them all together [12:43] Keybuk: grub supports it. [12:43] I know :) [12:44] yaboot doesn't though, right? [12:44] then again, yaboot doesn't seem to support booting :) [12:44] I think yaboot supports booting as an optional extra feature or something. grub2 should work fine, though. [12:44] Riddell: hi, I just updated https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MissingPotFiles with more KDE translations domains that lacks the .pot file [12:45] Riddell: I think is ok to ignore all those, but If you could check it, that would be really good [12:45] carlos: ok, will do [12:45] Riddell: thank you [12:48] Keybuk: And with that option, we'd still have to worry about what sort of breakage we're introducing and how. [12:49] Keybuk: We'd still have the "udev + wrong_kernel = kaboom" problem, regardless of whether the initramfs was modular or monolithic. [12:51] udev-2.6.15-22 [12:51] lvm2-2.6.15-22 [12:51] easy [12:51] :p === Keybuk really gets in the shower ...

[02:12] mjg59: the non-interactive case is trivial, you just refuse to install [02:12] mvo: at any rate you should get non-zero back from db_go, not that I've tested this === jjesse [n=jjesse@mail.ftpb.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel [02:13] mjg59: the admin vs. users thing is more of a problem, but I've talked to vendors who were happy with debconf for agreement even with that caveat [02:13] mvo: although I never ever want to see anything that does this in main or universe [02:13] ogra, sorry, have to go, will be back [02:13] thx for your help!

In the source of the gnome/kde frontend it just seems to exit (without any special exit code) [02:14] it goes to /lib/udev/serial_uart, http://ner.dy.fi/serial_uart - not linked anywhere, but if UART is needed you could use IMPORT{program}="serial_uart %p" fro rules === zul [n=chuck@ubuntu/member/zul] has joined #ubuntu-devel [02:14] heylo [02:14] Kamion: its for a multiverse package (that I'm not working on myself I may add :P) [02:14] of course uart reallyshould be available in sysfs, but that requires kernel patch AFAIK so it's the slow route [02:14] Mithrandir,infinity: (safe mode is 'xforcevesa' on cmdline at the moment, although that can be changed) [02:15] mvo: hmm, I think the confmodule will probably get SIGPIPEd then [02:15] I'll file a bug against udev anyway, just wanted to ask if the script has slightest change to make it into dapper [02:15] elmo: right [02:16] mvo: either that or read will fail and it'll hopefully fall over due to 'set -e' [02:16] mdz: hmm, but often it'll start X well enough and then just fail randomly in ubiquity somewhere, won't it? [02:16] Mithrandir: yeah, it's just a convenient place to put the boot option [02:17] Kamion: I don't think I wouldn've connected the dots for "system works for a while, then falls over" and "safe mode".

"it breaks" pretty much always leads to "look for something less broken", and "safe mode" sounds like it could work. [02:22] infinity: maybe. It does say "safe graphics" at the moment, though, so we might want to change it to just "safe mode" [02:22] Kamion: gnome renders it as a checkbox with a "help" button next to it [02:24] Mithrandir: yes, I suggested that [02:25] Kinnison: how can I tell a system that it shouldn't show the hibernate option?

I've had very little time to look at it this release, and it's bitrotted a bit [02:28] Mithrandir: that would work as root (pre desktop boot) [02:28] Kinnison: I was wondering how to test the suspend since my box doesn't do it according to g-p-m :) [02:28] I'll start translating debian-installer to get Georgian language in Espresso too :) [02:28] seb128: :-) [02:29] Kinnison: I call gconf-tool as the user already so I'll just copy that.

[02:49] Riddell: it's not supported yet; there's no usable UI for getting back to your session [02:50] Mithrandir: "dcop kded kded unloadModule klaptopdaemon" [02:50] although that'll only work after kde is running [02:50] Riddell: well, so a bit too early to do from the initramfs. :-) [02:51] rm /usr/share/services/kded/klaptopdaemon.desktop will work too [02:51] there used to be a wiki page with laptop support status in the past, is there one for dapper? [02:51] or, asking differently, is there a known status for the T60? [02:51] Riddell: klaptopdaemon is only useful for hibernation, not StR or other laptop tasks?

Should I tell him to add to that page, or is somebody else keeping an eye on that model? [02:53] I see, in that case this should do it sed -i s/EnableHibernate=true/EnableHibernate=false/ /usr/share/kubuntu-default-settings/kde-profile/default/share/config/kcmlaptoprc [02:53] does kalptopdaemon do anything else useful like making other useful lapyopy things work?

[02:54] azeem: more eyes the better; yes, please ask him to add his details to the top in additional and then fire away with testing the latest status [02:54] (I'm waiting for a tax return before I can justify my purchase) [02:54] Mithrandir: ^^ [02:54] Riddell: ok, thanks. [02:55] azeem: like infinity says, the hardware is fairly rare and hard to get hold off, so more testing and reports the better [02:55] mm, 80 character long file names [02:56] azeem: Breezy is not likely to work that well. Dapper will be somewhat better. [02:56] But all sorts of stuff is still likely to be broken [02:56] Mithrandir: Were trying to break the line into smaller chunks and gave up? :) [02:57] infinity: I was slightly puzzled at the repeated "share" and what "default" does in there, but I don't think I'll fight that windmill today.

[04:56] i dont use it, localdev was postponed to eft [04:56] and none of my edubuntu users use it either currently [04:56] ogra: in main, only linux-ntfs build-deps on it to build ntfsprogs [04:57] ltsp will depend on it in eft in any case [04:57] ogra: ok, so it wouldn't disrupt you if I requrested an UVF exception? [04:57] ogra: I'll try out fuse myself now and check if 2.5 works any better/worse [04:57] and if users want to set up localdev in ltsp now, they should get a working fuse [04:57] so yes, UVF exception would be nice [04:58] I might actually want fuse in desktop for eft, jfyi. [04:58] Do we have a tool to take two directory trees that are supposed to be identically laid out, and 1. check to see whether they have any overlapping leaf nodes and then 2. merge them into one directory ?

[04:59] ogra: wow, there's a tool for anything :) [04:59] heh [04:59] dunno if it does merging though [04:59] but its good for comparing [04:59] Err, no, a tool, not an application. [05:00] I don't want it to have a UI :-). [05:00] arent applications just big tools ? [05:00] Mithrandir: the "every time is adding a hyperlink" thing could be fixed after building the amd64 packages with today's i386 upload [05:00] I never could reproduce the crashes [05:00] doko: ok. :-/ [05:01] Hrm.

[05:06] And you don't want tree, you want find. [05:06] Err, I think. [05:06] Keybuk: I just installed fuse-utils which brought an udev rules file. How can I poke udev to run it? [05:06] Keybuk: (it's supposed to create /dev/fuse) [05:07] modprobe fuse ?` [05:07] Diziet: Filenames with newlines scare me. :) [05:07] ogra: well, that apparently didn't obey the udev rule... [05:07] Yes, me too, but they exist - in packages - nowadays :-/. [05:07] ogra: anyway, the dev is there now, thanks [05:07] In packages? [05:08] pitti: udevplug [05:08] Ones we can't remove from the archive? [05:08] Apparently. I remember seeing someone make dpkg not break in that case. [05:08] pitti: ideally just udevplug [05:08] Diziet: Making dpkg not break in that theoretical case is a far cry from "Debian or Ubuntu ship packages with files containing newlines" [05:08] (Although come to think of it I don't remember whether that patch ever made it into anyone's distro.) [05:08] Diziet: I'd be inclined to FILE BUGS IN UPPERCASE on packages that actually did... [05:09] and uppercase halps ? [05:09] *helps [05:09] Keybuk: hm, neither 'udevplug /sys/module/fuse' nor 'udevplug module/fuse' seems to work; but thanks, I'll play with it [05:09] infinity: Well, if you reckon that's our policy then the answer is indeed easy :-). [05:09] you get attention, may be not the one you like, but you get some [05:09] pitti: what's the udev rule?

[05:12] Diziet: I'd be surprised if you found one, and doubly-surprised if any maintainer argued with a bug being filed against their package for shipping such an abomination. [05:13] oh [05:13] what created the fuse group? === pitti only saw this case in attempts to fool backup scripts and similar vulnerability exploits [05:13] Keybuk: the fuse-utils postinst [05:13] pitti: right :) [05:13] so the group didn't exist when udev started [05:13] infinity: Fair enough :-).
