| Chipzz | terlmann: there allready is talk about using smart | 12:44 |
| Chipzz | terlmann: and michael vogt is here during the day | 12:44 |
| terlmann | could it be named Stymie? | 12:45 |
| terlmann | It is the "day" here. | 12:45 |
| Chipzz | no? | 12:45 |
| Chipzz | why would you get to name something other people created? | 12:46 |
| Chipzz | it's 0:46 here; he will be here in aproximately little over 8 hours | 12:47 |
| Chipzz | and his nick is mvo | 12:47 |
| terlmann | No,just it would be a better name than spmngr or spmanager or spm. stymie update && stymie dist-update .... it starts with s ... like spm ... and like synaptic... but better name ,don't you think? I did ask vogt to take a look at it. | 12:49 |
| terlmann | I have created a launchpad page. | 12:49 |
| terlmann | Apt & it's Gui frontend,Synaptic, were GREEEAATT for their time,but no more.with the size of files & the number of downloads worldwide,a new system needs to be used.something that can pause& resume updating. | 12:51 |
| terlmann | something that more efficiently handles the need for servers to be nearby,decreasing download times.something that might be called Stymie . | 12:51 |
| shackan | people don't care about names | 12:51 |
| Chipzz | terlmann: you DO realize apt can pause and resume updating? | 12:52 |
| Chipzz | and you DO realize that you can use <country-code>.archive.ubuntu.com ? | 12:52 |
| Chipzz | apt-get update ; apt-get upgrade -y ... ctrl-c ... apt-get upgrade -y | 12:54 |
| Chipzz | I know that's a poor mans solution to pausing | 12:55 |
| terlmann | it is.and it is command line only. | 12:55 |
| Chipzz | but there is really fundamentally little that does prevent apt pausing | 12:55 |
| Chipzz | 00:51 < terlmann> Apt & it's Gui frontend,Synaptic | 12:55 |
| Chipzz | 00:55 < terlmann> it is.and it is command line only. | 12:55 |
| Chipzz | ? :P | 12:55 |
| Chipzz | no matter | 12:56 |
| Chipzz | you also do realize that you can have apt download the files in the background? | 12:56 |
| Chipzz | and that when you disconnect, it is possible to resume that download? | 12:56 |
| Chipzz | (well actually update-manager does that) | 12:57 |
| terlmann | <chipzz> apt-get update ; apt-get upgrade -y ... ctrl-c ... apt-get upgrade -y | 12:57 |
| terlmann | ? | 12:57 |
| Chipzz | mvo would probably have a few reasons why apt is bad | 12:58 |

| Chipzz | what is the component to look for bugs for the rebuilding of a package? | 02:14 |
| Chipzz | "archive" or something? | 02:14 |
| Chipzz | rebuilding -> syncing | 02:15 |
| infinity | sync bugs should be filed against the package in question, and ubuntu-archive should be subscribed to the bug. | 02:15 |
| === sevrin [n=sevrin@202.75.186.154] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| infinity | Chipzz: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DeveloperResources <-- See the "Syncs" section. | 02:16 |
| Chipzz | infinity: I'm not a developer myself; I guess I can't subscribe ubuntu-archive? | 02:17 |
| infinity | Anyone can. | 02:18 |
| infinity | But if you aren't going to check the package thoroughly (ie: if you're not prepared to go through the process listed on DeveloperResources), you should get a developer to poke through it and then do the sync request. | 02:18 |
| Chipzz | infinity: I'm not 100% sure a sync request is what's needed, but quite sure though | 02:20 |
| infinity | If not 100% sure, then don't subscribe us, file the bug and get someone else to look at it first. | 02:20 |
| Chipzz | infinity: mythtv got synced to version 0.20, while mythplugins is still at 0.18 | 02:20 |
| Chipzz | I think that would qualify, no?> | 02:20 |
| infinity | That would need a UVF exception as well. Best to talk to #ubuntu-motu about it. | 02:21 |
| infinity | But it's probably a no-brainer. | 02:21 |
| Chipzz | mythplugins is useless as is now | 02:21 |
| tseng | you're appealing to the wrong guy | 02:22 |
| Chipzz | should I just go ahead and subscribe ubuntu-archive? | 02:22 |

| Chipzz | crimsun: that's exactly the bug I just filed, and which I'm arguing about weither I should subscribe ubuntu-archive or not | 02:23 |
| Chipzz | crimsun: what additional info is needed? | 02:23 |
| crimsun | see https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-announce/2006-August/000181.html | 02:24 |
| Chipzz | crimsun: I lack the needed information, though I guess I can find it by digging around a bit; shall I do that, or let the maintainer complete it? | 02:26 |
| crimsun | Chipzz: generally it's quite helpful to provide all the relevant information up front. | 02:27 |
| infinity | crimsun: Tell me that you know the ruby codebase inside out and backwards. | 02:28 |
| infinity | crimsun: Even if it's a lie, tell me that anyway, so I can offload something on you. :P | 02:28 |
| Chipzz | crimsun: I would agree; but the reason I filed this bug is more as a reminder to the maintainer, as I'm sure he is aware that mythtv needs to stay in sync with mythplugins | 02:28 |
| Chipzz | unless that package doesn't have a maintainer in ubuntu and just gets synced blindly | 02:28 |
| crimsun | infinity: I'm trying to decrease my misery, not increase it | 02:29 |
| infinity | crimsun: Damn. I just wanted to ping "ruby1.8 is broken on ppc64" on you, since it's causing one of your uploads (ruby-gnome2) to FTBFS on powerpc. :) | 02:29 |
| infinity | s/ping/pin/ | 02:30 |
| crimsun | hmm, I think Lucas sent an e-mail about that | 02:30 |
| slomo | infinity: did you see what i've written about apache2-dev? :) | 02:31 |
| infinity | slomo: yeah, someone synced apache1.3 without me noticing, so apache-dev and apache2-dev aren't co-installable anymore. I'll fix it. | 02:31 |
| crimsun | [https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-September/020769.html] | 02:31 |
| infinity | Yeah, I know. The reason it "builds fin in Debian" is because the Debian powerpc buildd is a 32-bit system. | 02:32 |
| slomo | infinity: thanks... just give-back mod-mono afterwards :) and we probably need a buildd only for openoffice :P i hate always waiting for other stuff to finish for > 12 hours ;) | 02:32 |

| AlinuxOS | So it's normal that someone donn't knows about :) | 04:01 |

| bluefoxicy | mjg59: Smoothing landscape, rheticulating splines, etc | 04:02 |
| Keybuk | mjg59: I think it still does that, yes | 04:02 |
| Keybuk | don't think it switches to vt1 though? | 04:03 |
| bluefoxicy | </simcity 2000) | 04:03 |
| mjg59 | Keybuk: That's why the clear statement was there | 04:03 |
| Keybuk | right, but that clear statement clears whatever is on vt1 :p | 04:04 |
| Keybuk | ie. getty | 04:04 |
| Keybuk | why does it switch at all? | 04:04 |
| mjg59 | Keybuk: Because it's been asked to quit | 04:04 |
| mjg59 | And because you can't set the console font when the VT is in graphics mode | 04:04 |
| Keybuk | looking at the current init script, it only switches to vt1 after it's set up the font | 04:04 |
| Keybuk | assumedly to put it on the console with the getty in case gdm doesn't start | 04:05 |
| mjg59 | The font can't be set until usplash has exited | 04:05 |
| Keybuk | right | 04:05 |
| Keybuk | look at the init script | 04:05 |
| Keybuk | I have 0.4-25 here | 04:05 |
| Keybuk | it does usplash_write QUIT, loops until usplash's pid vanishes, then calls setupcon ($CONSOLE_SCREEN) and only then does it switch to vt1 if the fgconsole is 8 | 04:06 |
| Keybuk | you don't need to be on vt1 to change the font, just a text vt (which it is, because usplash has quit) | 04:06 |
| mjg59 | Keybuk: So usplash is asked to quit, and in the process changes to vt 1 | 04:06 |
| mjg59 | Because that's the behaviour we generally want | 04:06 |
| mjg59 | Where "vt 1" is actually "whatever vt it started on" | 04:07 |
| mjg59 | s/it/it was/ | 04:07 |
| Keybuk | ah | 04:07 |
| Keybuk | usplash doesn't change to vt 1 when it quits ;) | 04:07 |
| Keybuk | should delete that code really, it's a total no-op | 04:07 |
| Keybuk | switch_console () doesn't work in usplash | 04:09 |
| mjg59 | Keybuk: Mm? | 04:09 |
| Keybuk | for one very good reason | 04:09 |
| === mayday_jay [n=mayday_j@maydayjay.net] has left #ubuntu-devel ["Leaving"] | ||
| Keybuk | it opens /dev/tty1 ... which doesn't exit | 04:09 |
| Keybuk | uh, exist | 04:09 |
| mjg59 | In what way "doesn't exist"? | 04:09 |
| Keybuk | usplash is run from the initramfs | 04:09 |
| Keybuk | in the namespace of the initramfs | 04:09 |
| mjg59 | Yes | 04:09 |
| Keybuk | /dev in the initramfs is a tmpfs that is moved to the real root filesystem | 04:09 |
| Keybuk | at which point it briefly exists as /root/dev/... | 04:09 |
| Keybuk | before the initramfs is recursively deleted to free up memory | 04:10 |
| mjg59 | Oh | 04:10 |
| Keybuk | so when usplash does it's final switch_console (saved_vt) thingy | 04:10 |
| Keybuk | it actually does sod all, because open returns ENOENT :p | 04:10 |
| mjg59 | So what you mean is "switch_console() doesn't work after initramfs has gone away" | 04:10 |
| Keybuk | right | 04:10 |
| mjg59 | Rather than "switch_console() doesn't work" | 04:10 |
| Keybuk | so nothing switches to vt1 before the console is setup | 04:11 |
| Keybuk | and this doesn't matter | 04:11 |
| mjg59 | Keybuk: Except that I end up on vt 1 before the console is setup | 04:11 |
| Keybuk | at the point the font is changed, the current tty is tty8 (usplash's), but usplash has quit and reverted that console to text mode | 04:11 |
| Keybuk | so setupcon works fine | 04:11 |
| Keybuk | mjg59: you see the font change? | 04:11 |
| mjg59 | 03:01 < mjg59> Keybuk: As far as I can tell, current behaviour with usplash is to switch to vt 1, see the font change and then switch to gdm | 04:12 |
| Keybuk | that surprises me | 04:12 |
| Keybuk | where is the "switch to vt1" coming from? | 04:12 |
| mjg59 | Just let me make sure I'm running the latst version of all this sutff | 04:13 |
| Keybuk | (there'd actually be a terrible race if that code worked, btw ... people with fast machines would have usplash switch *away* from gdm, no? | 04:13 |
| mjg59 | No | 04:14 |
| Keybuk | why not? | 04:14 |
| mjg59 | gdm wouldn't be able to change until usplash had released the lock | 04:14 |
| Keybuk | what lock? | 04:14 |
| mjg59 | The vt switching madness | 04:14 |
| mjg59 | It's handled inside bogl or svgalib, depending | 04:14 |
| Keybuk | except gdm does switch away, no? | 04:14 |
| Keybuk | otherwise gdm wouldn't appear until the end of the boot process | 04:14 |
| Keybuk | and it definitely appears long before that | 04:14 |
| mjg59 | Only after usplash has shut itself down | 04:14 |
| Keybuk | how does usplash know to shut itself down? | 04:15 |
| mjg59 | Either the quit or the vt switch request | 04:15 |
| Keybuk | ah, it gets a signal when gdm causes the vt to switch? | 04:15 |
| mjg59 | Yes | 04:15 |
| Keybuk | right | 04:15 |
| Keybuk | where is that code? | 04:15 |
| Keybuk | I can't see it | 04:15 |
| Keybuk | the only signal it appears to act on is SIGALRM | 04:15 |
| Keybuk | inside bogl I guess? | 04:16 |
| mjg59 | In either bogl or svgalib | 04:16 |
| mjg59 | Yeah | 04:16 |
| mjg59 | You don't really want to go there unless you need to | 04:16 |
| mjg59 | Ok | 04:16 |
| mjg59 | Hm | 04:16 |
| mjg59 | That's interesting | 04:16 |
| Keybuk | and that causes usplash to exit without switching the console back? | 04:16 |
| Keybuk | (the interesting thing, of course, is that setupcon *must* work with a graphical tty, because it works just fine underneath X :p) | 04:16 |
| mjg59 | Keybuk: The kernel doesn't allow that | 04:17 |
| mjg59 | Hm. | 04:17 |
| mjg59 | so now I'm not seeing the font change, but I *am* seeing VT 1 | 04:17 |
| Keybuk | doesn't allow which? | 04:18 |
| mjg59 | Keybuk: Changing the console font | 04:18 |
| Keybuk | it must do ... | 04:18 |
| Keybuk | my console font is changed, and at no point do I see VT 1 during boot | 04:18 |
| mjg59 | Then conceivably it's doing it to vt 8 | 04:18 |
| mjg59 | Nope, just saw the font change again | 04:19 |
| Keybuk | oh, hmm, maybe I do see the font change | 04:19 |
| Keybuk | it's just so fast that it's almost subliminal | 04:19 |
| Keybuk | it's as gdm starts | 04:20 |
| mjg59 | Yes | 04:20 |
| Keybuk | ahh | 04:20 |
| Keybuk | gdm's init script runs the usplash init script! | 04:20 |
| Keybuk | which calls setupcon;chvt 1 | 04:20 |
| mjg59 | But we're on vt 1 before setupcon completes itself | 04:20 |
| mjg59 | Otherwise there'd be no visible change | 04:21 |
| Keybuk | maybe setupcon isn't immediate? | 04:21 |
| Keybuk | I remember Colin saying it forks off processes to do stuff | 04:21 |
| Keybuk | if it doesn't wait() on those, it's entirely possible that setupcon exits before the font is properly set | 04:21 |

| mjg59 | Keybuk: Doing so corrupts X | 04:27 |

| Keybuk | morning fabio | 04:43 |
| mjg59 | Keybuk: So the default behaviour of consolechars is to do it to the current vt, but it seems like it might work on others | 04:44 |
| Keybuk | that doesn't need to be vt 1 though? | 04:44 |
| Keybuk | when usplash exits is restores vt8 to be KD_TEXT, no? | 04:45 |
| mjg59 | Should do, yeah | 04:45 |
| Keybuk | that's almost empty | 04:45 |
| Keybuk | if gdm's init script called "DO_NOT_SWITCH_vt=y usplash start" and that stopped the chvt, that'd probably stop the font change being shown | 04:46 |

| mjg59 | The bogomips figure will be recalculated later on anyway | 05:18 |

| desrt | ok. | 05:23 |
| desrt | well | 05:23 |
| desrt | there are clearly places in the kernel that assume that a mdelay() and friends will correspond to jiffies in some way or another | 05:24 |
| mjg59 | Yes | 05:24 |
| desrt | i think the atheros driver might be one of them | 05:24 |
| desrt | it used to randomly lock up my keyboard | 05:24 |
| mjg59 | But | 05:24 |
| desrt | since i set the bogomips override it hasn't | 05:25 |
| mjg59 | bogomips get recalculated when CPU frequency changes | 05:25 |
| desrt | so maybe we could force a step up/down on boot? | 05:25 |
| mjg59 | Well, it's likely that it gets done when the cpufreq driver is loaded | 05:25 |

| Keybuk | and why you have to boot the damned vm to do it | 05:25 |

| mjg59 | After booting | 05:26 |
| desrt | mjg59; you can see the log message for cpu#1 being calibrated | 05:26 |
| ScreaminIke | uhm... i don't know where else to air this... but i put in the edgy release today and did a dry run of the system install... and there is no option in the keyboard layouts for dvorak... can that be integrated? | 05:26 |
| desrt | mjg59; it always gets it right | 05:26 |
| desrt | it's just cpu0 that has the wrong value | 05:26 |
| mjg59 | Yeah | 05:27 |
| desrt | so maybe by the time cpu1 comes up the system has gotten to a saner state | 05:27 |
| desrt | or maybe it's just that SMIs are always done on cpu0 | 05:27 |
| mjg59 | Well, SMM code will always run on CPU 0 | 05:27 |
| desrt | well | 05:27 |
| mjg59 | But I don't know if the rest of the system is blocked while that's happening | 05:27 |
| desrt | that doesn't make much sense to me | 05:27 |
| desrt | if an SMM is launched to emulate a port access then that has to happen on the CPU that initiated | 05:28 |
| mjg59 | No, the southbridge just has to give back the value that the processor requested | 05:28 |
| desrt | so it executes the SMI on cpu0 while causing cpu1 to fly a holding pattern? | 05:28 |
| mjg59 | That's what I'd assume, though it's always possible that cpu 1 carries on executing code | 05:28 |
| mjg59 | I haven't checked the specs for that situation | 05:29 |
| desrt | oh. execiting | 05:30 |
| desrt | bogomips are in /proc/cpuinfo | 05:30 |
| desrt | let's check this out | 05:30 |
| mjg59 | Hm. Actually, maybe it just multiplies or divides the existing value. | 05:31 |
| mjg59 | How irritating. | 05:31 |
| desrt | i think you're right | 05:31 |
| desrt | i bugged teh calibration routine to dump some info to me at KERN_CRIT | 05:31 |
| desrt | i see nothing | 05:31 |
| mjg59 | Well, the calibration routines are __init | 05:31 |
| desrt | just the initial reading for each cpu | 05:31 |
| desrt | ya... that too | 05:32 |
| desrt | so either cpufreq reinvented the wheel as a better alternative to removing a couple of __init tags | 05:32 |
| desrt | or you're right | 05:32 |

| desrt | btw -- new console font looks really nice | 05:32 |
| desrt | i think SMIs run on CPU1 | 05:34 |

| Fujitsu | Please don't paste! | 05:37 |
| desrt | mjg59; but otherwise i think we should just detect the stupid ICH7 and kill off SMI_USB_EN during boot | 05:37 |
| AlinuxOS | Fujitsu, that I se somtimes green lines ;) | 05:37 |
| desrt | mjg59; as an alternative, we could encourage the upstream kernel guys to kill off the idea of bogomips | 05:38 |
| desrt | because, really, if you have a TSC, bogomips and approximate delay loops are just a really dumb idea | 05:38 |
| bluefoxicy | whoops | 05:39 |
| bluefoxicy | oopsed my kernel | 05:39 |

| AlinuxOS | Alt + F1 | 05:39 |
| Fujitsu | AlinuxOS, what type of video card? | 05:39 |
| desrt | mjg59; with things like SMI's going off at random times you cannot assume that a delay loop run now will take the same number of ticks as a delay loop run later | 05:39 |
| desrt | mjg59; which is the very basis of bogomips, unfortunately :( | 05:39 |

| AlinuxOS | but on laptop I have ATI card. | 05:41 |
| Fujitsu | Urgh, Nvidia. | 05:41 |
| desrt | mjg59; how easy do you figure it would be to replace the delay loop with an accurate equivlent of itself that requires no calibration? | 05:41 |
| Keybuk | mjg59: interestingly, the vt switch does not come from the usplash init script | 05:42 |
| Keybuk | mjg59: could setupcon be doing that itself? | 05:42 |
| desrt | any system which abuses SMM to the extent that my macbook does would have TSC | 05:42 |
| AlinuxOS | Fujitsu, so which one ? | 05:43 |
| AlinuxOS | I would like to use compiz XGL things :) | 05:44 |

| caleb- | mvo: im-switch in edgy/sid provides all_ALL for default, so it can support all locales. Dapper's im-switch has not all_ALL, so every scim engines has its own setting. | 11:51 |

| Mithrandir | mjg59: is it on purpose that we don't display failures any more? | 01:31 |
| ogra | (its always been a prob with that specific via board) | 01:31 |
| rodarvus | slomo_, I've just seen this blog entry, was about to check what it is all about on git | 01:31 |
| ogra | rodarvus, well, that specific bug just needs someoune with decent dbconf knowledge | 01:31 |
| slomo_ | rodarvus: perfect, thanks :) | 01:32 |
| Mithrandir | mjg59: and would you like me to extend TEXT or have an TEXT-URGENT command? | 01:32 |
| ogra | rodarvus, apparently xdebconfigurator fully supports it ... i wonder if we shouldnt sync that alongside with the debian packages ... | 01:32 |
| rodarvus | ogra, the thing is we have quite a few failures and misdetections happening: xresprobe needs love, 'xorg' (package) needs love | 01:32 |
| ogra | well, debian uses xdebconfigurator for all x detection ... | 01:33 |
| ogra | they dont have such a thing like our postinst for xserver-xorg afaik | 01:33 |
| Kamion | ogra: that's totally not true | 01:34 |
| Kamion | our postinst comes from Debian and is still used there | 01:34 |
| rodarvus | indeed, they don't use xdebconfigurator (at least not anymore) | 01:34 |
| rodarvus | don't know in the past | 01:34 |
| Kamion | never did as far as I know | 01:34 |
| Kamion | not in the standard installer flow, anyway | 01:35 |

| rodarvus | ogra, ubuntu changes to 'xorg' package are reasonably small | 01:35 |

| Mithrandir | mjg59: it's trivial to add new commands, so I think I'll just have it be TEXT-URGENT. | 01:39 |
| ogra | but it works :) at lest for stuff like VideoRam :) | 01:39 |
| Mithrandir | mjg59: and I'll do the indent, yes. Do you have a preference to what coding style it should use? | 01:40 |
| ogra | we're missing so many options in our postinst ... | 01:40 |

| Mithrandir | ogra: and that's impossible to detect? | 01:43 |
| shining | couldn't it be just commented ? | 01:44 |
| ogra | well, we could probably hardcode it somewhere ... "if certain chipset in certain HW combination then ..." | 01:44 |

| elmo | he claims not to be staff, I forget who is, one of the #ubuntu ops, IIRC | 02:10 |
| tkamppeter | The uupdate works fine, I get a new directory with the ready to build source tree for 20060819. | 02:11 |

| Hobbsee | the ubuntu + staffer people hang out there | 02:14 |
| Kamion | we're not incompatible at that level. Let me look at the source | 02:14 |
| Kamion | wah, foomatic-db upstream ship their own debian/rules? how confusing | 02:15 |
| tkamppeter | I have once given write access to the repository to Chris Lawrence and he has maintained Debian directories in the foomatic subpackages for some time. | 02:16 |
| tkamppeter | I never touched these Debian directories. | 02:16 |
| Kamion | I see - I guess it's up to Chris then | 02:17 |
| tkamppeter | And I doubt that the write access for Chris is still active, perhaps I better delete all debian directories from the upstream repositories. | 02:17 |
| Kamion | best talk to Chris first | 02:17 |
| elmo | Hobbsee: thanks | 02:17 |
| tkamppeter | For the Mandriva RPM I install with | 02:20 |
| tkamppeter | make PREFIX=%{_prefix} DESTDIR=%buildroot install | 02:20 |
| Hobbsee | elmo: not a problem | 02:20 |
| === Ubugtu [n=bugbot@ubuntu/bot/ubugtu] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Kamion | tkamppeter: I have no idea why/how it worked on Debian, but debian/rules is wrong (or arguably the Makefile) | 02:21 |
| doko_ | tkamppeter: did you look for patches in the diff.gz? I never used uupdate | 02:21 |
| Kamion | this isn't an incompatibility, it's just weird shit | 02:21 |
| Kamion | tkamppeter: setting PREFIX does nothing. it's set but never references | 02:21 |
| Kamion | referenced | 02:21 |
| tkamppeter | Where %{_prefix} is /usr and %buildroot is the temporary directory for the directory tree which should be installed into the system when one installs the binary RPM. So DESTDIR in the upstream package should work/ | 02:22 |
| doko_ | I think, changes in the diff.gz are not applied automatically, so you have to do that by hand | 02:22 |
| Kamion | doko_: uupdate applies the Debian diff | 02:22 |
| Kamion | that's kind of the point | 02:22 |
| desrt | yay. -8. | 02:22 |
| Kamion | tkamppeter: debian/rules should be changed as follows, I think: | 02:22 |
| desrt | happy -8, everyone. | 02:22 |
| Kamion | - $(MAKE) install prefix=$(CURDIR)/debian/foomatic-db/usr | 02:22 |
| Kamion | + $(MAKE) install DESTDIR=$(CURDIR)/debian/foomatic-db | 02:23 |

| tkamppeter | Kamion, yes, this is how it is intended by my upstream Makefile. | 02:24 |
| Kamion | although how 'ln -sf $(LIBDIR)/db/source/PPD $(DESTDIR)$(CUPS_PPDS)/foomatic-db-ppds' worked I'm not sure | 02:24 |

| pina | anyone | 02:24 |
| tkamppeter | But then Chris must either have /usr/share/cups/model world-writable or he must have run dpkg-build as root. | 02:25 |
| Kamion | tkamppeter: note that the db/source/PPD symlink is missing from the Debian binary package | 02:25 |

| jdong|laptop | Kamion, crimsun, I'm really sorry about this one.... I mislabeled my edgy chroot as a dapper one, so that did little good in terms of testing... :( | 05:27 |
| BenC | pitti: I can't find the actual one right this second, but the basic problem is that it crashes when you kill apport... fixed the bug where it sometimes would crash while it was running (caused by some issues in vfs_unlink()) | 05:27 |
| Kamion | jdong|laptop: ~ubuntu2 isn't in the archive; nothing to backport | 05:27 |
| Kamion | unless it's publishing right now or something | 05:28 |
| tkamppeter | Still waiting for approval is foomatic-filters, foo2zjs, foomatic-db-hpijs | 05:28 |
| jdong|laptop | Kamion: well it was very recently uploaded | 05:28 |
| BenC | pitti: The bug is concerning me a little because it's obviously a security issue at this point, anyone can crash the machine | 05:28 |
| slomo_ | Kamion: which reply for me? | 05:28 |
| pitti | BenC: right | 05:28 |
| Kamion | jdong|laptop: right, I'll need to wait until it's published | 05:28 |
| pitti | BenC: is it just an oops, or does it have any negative system impact? | 05:28 |
| jdong|laptop | Kamion: ok, then, thanks so much for you quick response | 05:28 |
| Kamion | slomo_: 16:22 < slomo_> BenC: bug #61455 | 05:28 |
| Ubugtu | Malone bug 61455 in linux-source-2.6.17 "asm-i386/io.h includes non-existing header file" [High,Unconfirmed] http://launchpad.net/bugs/61455 | 05:28 |
| pitti | BenC: anyway, from your question I infer that it's nontrivial to fix? | 05:28 |
| tkamppeter | But I have already asked for approval for foomatic-db-hpijs together with HPLIP, I think you can consider this one as also approved. | 05:28 |
| === Burgwork [n=corey@ubuntu/member/burgundavia] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Kamion | of course this triggers Ubugtu again so we go round in circles ;) | 05:29 |
| BenC | pitti: just an oops in the kernel thread that called apport | 05:29 |
| BenC | pitti: it's non-trivial, and the only thing I can think of is making the fork that exec's apport non-killable | 05:29 |
| slomo_ | Kamion: ah ok... as it's your archive day tomorrow... is bug #56073 ok as a sync request or shall i file a separate bug for this? | 05:29 |
| Ubugtu | Malone bug 56073 in xfsprogs "Include XFS corruption fix from 2.6.17.7" [Medium,Confirmed] http://launchpad.net/bugs/56073 | 05:29 |
| BenC | slomo, Kamion: thanks | 05:29 |
| Kamion | slomo_: actually my archive day is Friday | 05:30 |
| bluefoxicy | pitti: may have negative system impact | 05:30 |
| Kamion | slomo_: yes, that's fine | 05:30 |
| bluefoxicy | oopsen do strange things, right now I can't kill -9 some hanging gksu processes. | 05:30 |
| slomo_ | BenC: builds fine with sys/io.h btw | 05:30 |
| BenC | slomo_: good deal | 05:30 |
| Kamion | I'll do main syncs a bit sooner than that though to avoid beta freeze | 05:30 |
| bluefoxicy | stuff like this is probably related :/ | 05:30 |
| pitti | BenC: what does it actually expect from apport? | 05:30 |
| tkamppeter | Should I switch all bugs fixed by my packages to "Fix committed" or only for the packages where the UVF ER was approved? | 05:30 |
| pitti | BenC: i. e. it seems to expect that the apport process terminates normally rather than due to a signal? | 05:31 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: the latter is better for now, since only approved packages can actually be uploaded now | 05:31 |
| BenC | pitti: I'm not sure exactly what the problem is, the crash happens in filp_close(), which is odd because that's called on the core file before we invoke apport | 05:32 |
| Kamion | you know, I'd be a lot more pleased with firefox's "Restore Session" thing after a crash if it ACTUALLY WORKED | 05:32 |
| BenC | the only thing happening after apport returns is the unlink of the core in cases where it isn't supposed to be left around | 05:32 |
| Kamion | beta2 is crashier than a very crashy thing | 05:33 |
| BenC | pitti: I fixed the vfs_unlink() I had to do that, to use inode->i_op->unlink() instead, since that is more appropriate, so maybe it fixes this problem too | 05:33 |
| BenC | pitti: I'm trying to see if I can reproduce the problem, and test the fix today | 05:34 |
| pitti | BenC: cool, thanks | 05:34 |
| BenC | pitti: but just wanted you to know we have a serious blocker for apport at the moment | 05:34 |
| BenC | last thing I want is a major security whole that is specific to ubuntu and code that I wrote :) | 05:35 |

| kmr | with edgy about to be released, is their a place to bug a maintainer about incorporating an imporant patch. The patch has been accepted by the debian ackage, but messages send directly to the ubuntu maintainer have one unanswered: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/imagemagick/+bug/44307 | 07:01 |
| Ubugtu | Malone bug 44307 in imagemagick "Assertion failure processing ICC profiles with perlmagick" [Unknown,Fix committed] | 07:01 |
| Kamion | what Ubuntu maintainer? I don't think we have anyone explicitly caring about imagemagick | 07:02 |

| ogra | thats sadly the debian maintainer | 07:03 |
| kmr | Kamion: oh, that's right, ubuntu doesn't have the strong maintainer roles that debian has, is that correct? | 07:04 |
| ogra | so he might not be happy being mailed directly | 07:04 |
| Kamion | kmr: correct | 07:04 |
| Kamion | kmr: erm, I'm confused | 07:04 |
| Kamion | kmr: the changelog in our current package has a 6:6.2.4.5-0.7 version, but it's not the same as the one you cite in that bug | 07:04 |
| Kamion | kmr: is it possible that the Debian maintainer dropped your NMU? | 07:05 |
| kmr | ogra: well, that's okay, I first filed a debian bug about 4 months before filing the ubuntu bug | 07:05 |
| ogra | but he fixed it in debian | 07:05 |
| Kamion | actually, it's an upload from Daniel Kobras several months before your NMU | 07:05 |
| ogra | and might not care about ubuntu | 07:05 |
| kmr | ogra: yes, on Sep 10. | 07:05 |
| kmr | I sent email to hive back in May | 07:05 |
| Kamion | anyway, I've got to go and do yet more house-moving, but I'll see about figuring out what happened and merging the fix when I get back | 07:06 |
| ogra | Kamion, i feel with you ... | 07:06 |
| === ogra came back to a roofless house from detroit | ||
| kmr | Kamion: I never did a nmu. Looking at the debian changelog looks like it was fixed Sept 11 someone else doing an NMU | 07:06 |
| Kamion | kmr: oh, I *see* | 07:07 |
| kmr | Kamion: the patch I submitted was several versions ago. imagemagick has had a number of security updates. | 07:07 |
| Kamion | that makes sense then | 07:07 |
| kmr | for myself, I've been backporting my patch to each security update and storing it in alocal repository. a bit of a pain | 07:07 |
| kmr | Kamion: good luck with the moving. it's only a 3-line patch | 07:08 |
| Kamion | yeah, just need to see whether we should take the other patches in that upload too | 07:08 |

| BenC | elmo: I would be willing to guess that the debian guys are only applying the xen patch for the actual xen build of the kernel, not normal buids | 08:32 |
| BenC | elmo: The reason I don't have it in ours is because non-xen builds with the xen patch applied are broken and non-booting | 08:33 |

| zul | i could try :) | 08:35 |
| BenC | zul: you're the man, you can do it :) | 08:35 |
| zul | but i always updated it from the stable trees from kernel.org/git | 08:35 |
| BenC | or at least I think you're just crazy enough to get it working | 08:35 |
| zul | done it before...will do it again | 08:36 |
| zul | thanks though :) | 08:36 |
| BenC | that would be xen would be added to the ever growing list of things that need to be rebuilt when the main kernel is uploaded | 08:37 |
| BenC | xen would be an "always" rebuild, even for non-abi-bump uploads | 08:37 |
| elmo | eventually, we should just rebuild thearchive when we upload the kernel | 08:37 |
