| Adri2000 | Mithrandir: pppoeconf? I also filed a bug for that, #72370 | 12:42 |
| lamont | Mithrandir: ldap in nsswitch.conf seems to be bustificated in edgy. | 12:44 |
| lamont | how very bizare... | 12:47 |
| lamont | getent works, but finger doesn't.... | 12:47 |
| Burgwork | lamont: yes, and that is a bad thing | 12:47 |
| Burgwork | means I need to keep a feisty client to test, so this sort of thing doesn't happen again | 12:48 |

| Burgwork | how something like snuck through, I have no idea | 12:52 |
| lamont | Burgwork: I care about that for fiesty.... But for the moment, I just want to fix it so that I can upgrade the rest of the house to edgy... | 12:53 |

| stewski | does the server contain a fridge ou? | 12:58 |

| stewski | I was of the impression they were after in place import and replacement of domain controller functionality? | 01:00 |
| ajmitch | lamont: yeah, libnss-ldap needs put into edgy-updates | 01:01 |
| ajmitch | lamont: assuming it's the timeout issue for boot that you've struck | 01:01 |
| lamont | ajmitch: I had timeouts... but the other part was that the login process can't find any users... | 01:02 |
| lamont | iz this fixed already somewhere? | 01:02 |
| ajmitch | er, I haven't come across that one, nor has it been reported | 01:05 |
| ajmitch | gdm has some issues if you don't restart it | 01:06 |
| ajmitch | but console logins have been fine in my experience | 01:06 |

| KnowledgEngi | in this channel there is somebody that work in the ubuntu comunity??? | 04:23 |
| KnowledgEngi | somebody that is a ubuntu developer | 04:24 |
| KnowledgEngi | becouse using synaptic is not possible to install a Low-Latency kernel | 04:24 |
| KnowledgEngi | and midi softwares like rosegarden need a Low-Latency kernel | 04:25 |
| sladen | KnowledgEngi: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.17/+filebug | 04:29 |
| sladen | KnowledgEngi: could you include information about what would need to be done---eg. the URL of patches, configuration options or GIT trees to apply | 04:30 |
| sladen | KnowledgEngi: I believe that low latency patches are already in. | 04:30 |
| crimsun | KnowledgEngi: it's addressed already in feisty | 04:32 |
| KnowledgEngi | but i do not know if low-latency is sufficent | 04:32 |
| KnowledgEngi | is possible that rosegarden need particular kernel configuration | 04:32 |
| crimsun | KnowledgEngi: it's much too invasive for breezy, dapper, and edgy | 04:32 |
| KnowledgEngi | i have not other chanse | 04:35 |
| KnowledgEngi | rosegarden need a particular kernel | 04:35 |
| KnowledgEngi | and return me error about kernel | 04:35 |
| crimsun | since when has rosegarden required a specific kernel? | 04:35 |
| KnowledgEngi | The resolution of the timer of system is too much low Rosegarden has not found one source of the timer to high resolution for reproduction MIDI. This could mean that a Linux with one is being used kernel resolution of the timer too much low. It contacts your Linux distributor for having more information. | 04:37 |
| KnowledgEngi | the translation italian-english is not perfect | 04:38 |
| KnowledgEngi | becouse i used google translator | 04:38 |
| KnowledgEngi | if you try to install rosegarden4 using synaptic and run it | 04:40 |
| KnowledgEngi | you can see the error | 04:40 |
| KnowledgEngi | in english | 04:40 |
| KnowledgEngi | but my ubuntu is setted with italian language | 04:40 |

| jdong | any other suggestions? :) | 06:47 |
| cjwatson | jdong: sudo apt-get install grep-dctrl moreutils; sudo dselect update; combine <(grep-dctrl -nsPackage -FStatus ' installed' /var/lib/dpkg/status) not <(grep-dctrl -nsPackage '' /var/lib/dpkg/available) | 06:56 |
| cjwatson | requires bash; dselect update is required to get /var/lib/dpkg/available up to date | 06:57 |
| jdong | cjwatson: thanks, now let me digest that :D | 06:57 |
| cjwatson | actually you can get rid of the dselect update if you use this instead: | 06:57 |
| cjwatson | combine <(grep-dctrl -nsPackage -FStatus ' installed' /var/lib/dpkg/status) not <(apt-cache dumpavail | grep-dctrl -nsPackage '') | 06:57 |
| jdong | ah, so look in dpkg/status for packages not in apt-cache dumpavail | 06:58 |
| jdong | makes sense | 06:58 |
| cjwatson | correct | 06:59 |
| jdong | `dpkg --get-selections | awk '$2 == "install" { print $1 }` would be identical to the first grep-dctrl call, right? | 07:00 |
| infinity | No. | 07:00 |
| infinity | selections don't mean something's installed. | 07:00 |
| cjwatson | selections => desired state not actual state | 07:01 |
| jdong | ok | 07:01 |
| jdong | good point | 07:01 |
| infinity | But "dpkg -l \* | grep ^i | awk '{print $2}'" works. | 07:01 |
| jdong | haven't considered that | 07:01 |
| jdong | infinity: I think I'll choose the pretty looking grep-dctrl call :D | 07:01 |
| cjwatson | that grep-dctrl is technically a layering violation since /var/lib/dpkg/status is an implementation detail of dpkg, but ... | 07:02 |
| jdong | meh, it works, I don't complain :) | 07:02 |
| cjwatson | dpkg-query -W -f '${Package} ${Status}\n' | grep ' installed$' | cut -d' ' -f1 | 07:04 |
| cjwatson | ^-- bit neater I suppose | 07:04 |
| infinity | I like mine better. :) | 07:04 |
| jdong | ooh | 07:04 |
| infinity | Less typing. | 07:04 |
| jdong | lol | 07:04 |
| cjwatson | infinity: I wasn't certain if it would deal correctly with very long package names | 07:05 |
| cjwatson | looks like it probably does | 07:05 |
| infinity | cjwatson: It does, because when dpkg-query output is sent to stdout, it exapnds the columns. | 07:05 |
| cjwatson | ah yes | 07:05 |
| infinity | Err, sent to stdin of another process. | 07:05 |
| infinity | Whatever. | 07:05 |

| infinity | I should have booked a week of VAC after the conferences. | 07:05 |
| cjwatson | We should put moreutils in main. It's neat. | 07:06 |
| keescook | infinity: any brain power available for the security LP uploads? I've got people wondering why only edgy's update exists. :) | 07:06 |
| infinity | Isn't sponge one of yours? | 07:06 |
| infinity | Or was that a joeyism? | 07:06 |
| cjwatson | infinity: the concept was originally mine, although I believe it was rewritten, possibly by Tolef | 07:07 |
| infinity | keescook: I'm working on it, drescher's dying from I/O contention, so I'm working on it rather slowly. | 07:07 |
| cjwatson | er, Tollef | 07:07 |
| jdong | wait a sec | 07:07 |

| keescook | infinity: okay, cool. is there anything you need from me, or do you see all the files you need? | 07:07 |
| infinity | keescook: I should have everything I need. | 07:07 |

| fabbione | cjwatson: when do you think you can merge lsb? | 07:11 |
| cjwatson | fabbione: I'll do it later today | 07:12 |
| cjwatson | didn't know it was urgent | 07:12 |
| fabbione | cjwatson: that'd be great thanks. | 07:12 |
| fabbione | no it's not urgent but i am fighting an issue in an init script where something in lsb is returning 1 on ubuntu but 0 on debian | 07:12 |
| fabbione | and i can't exactly figure what it is | 07:12 |
| fabbione | so i was hoping that a merge would fix that | 07:13 |
| cjwatson | tell me what the init script is and I'll check it out when I do the merge | 07:13 |
| cjwatson | it could just as easily be our usplash changes or similar | 07:13 |
| fabbione | it's mdadm-raid but there is a workaround in place atm | 07:13 |
| fabbione | oh might be yeah | 07:13 |
| jdong | cjwatson: would it be a fair assumption that packages in main all end in ubuntu<number.number> | 07:14 |
| infinity | There was just an LSB upload in Debian that fixed some return codes. | 07:14 |
| cjwatson | jdong: no | 07:14 |
| infinity | I saw it fly by on my buildd a day or three ago. | 07:14 |
| cjwatson | jdong: "ubuntu" in a version number implies that we've locally modified it; no more, no less. | 07:14 |
| fabbione | i can't find what provides log_to_console | 07:14 |
| fabbione | that seems to be the culprit | 07:14 |
| fabbione | infinity: yes i did try lsb from debian but it doesn't really help | 07:15 |
| infinity | * log_use_fancy_output() had unintended behavior under set -e. | 07:15 |
| infinity | (Thanks to Steve Langesek for the heads-up.) | 07:15 |
| fabbione | infinity: but ya know.. mixing != not good | 07:15 |
| cjwatson | fabbione: I'll check it out later. | 07:15 |
| fabbione | infinity: already tested that | 07:15 |
| jdong | infinity: speaking of buildd's, can you make it that -backports builds against -updates? | 07:15 |
| cjwatson | fabbione: (I know where all the pieces live) | 07:15 |
| infinity | fabbione: mdadm has a bunch of its own logging functions, doesn't it? | 07:15 |
| fabbione | cjwatson: ok thanks, just bear in mind that our mdadm-raid will work (workaround in place) you will need the one from debian | 07:15 |
| fabbione | infinity: only small wrappers. they are ok tho | 07:15 |

| gnomefreak | ok let me try booting difffernet kernel (shouldnt help though) | 12:45 |
| cjwatson | at least, no progress bar updates | 12:45 |
| user__ | cjwatson, that's odd, because it displays one. | 12:45 |

| cjwatson | user__: yes, that's just the general finish-install progress bar | 12:45 |
| cjwatson | I don't regard this as a bug | 12:45 |
| user__ | cjwatson, what file is it that would need modifcation? | 12:45 |
| cjwatson | user__: well, (a) your %post script to source the debconf confmodule and add suitable db_progress commands, (b) finish-install to allocate a different amount of space for the progress bar | 12:46 |

| user__ | ok, i'm extracting a huge tarrbal there, is there a way to redirect the output to the install setup easly from %post? | 12:47 |
| cjwatson | so one thing you could do is make the info messages change but not actually move the progress bar; that would be less fiddle | 12:48 |
| user__ | if a user that uses the product doesn't see a progressbar moving while the huge tarrbal is extracing the user could suspect the instalation failed/froze | 12:48 |
| cjwatson | fiddly | 12:48 |
| cjwatson | however, in order to do that you're going to have to arrange for a shell command to be called after extracting each file (note that this will slow down the extraction a lot if there are many small files) | 12:49 |
| user__ | I wonder if busybox is supporting this | 12:51 |
| user__ | feel free to elborate | 12:51 |
| cjwatson | busybox? normal tar doesn't even support this easily - you'd have to get a list of all files and extract them each by hand | 12:51 |
| cjwatson | you also need a debconf template somewhere that you can subst into in order to pass to db_progress INFO | 12:52 |

| user__ | <cjwatson> given that, it would be '. /usr/share/debconf/confmodule' at the top of your %post script, and 'db_progress SUBST base-installer/debootstrap/info/extracting SUBST0 "$filename"; db_progress INFO base-installer/debootstrap/info/extracting' before extracting each file | 03:28 |
| user__ | cjwatson, it only displays: "extracing foo .... " | 03:29 |
| user__ | i put db)progress INFO ; tar xv... foo.tar.gz ; | 03:29 |
| user__ | but still no go | 03:29 |
| cjwatson | your report is garbled; please show me the exact code snippet (as short as you can, to avoid flooding this channel), and exactly what message you see | 03:29 |
| user__ | cjwatson, http://pastebin.ca/254110 | 03:32 |
| cjwatson | user__: it doesn't look as if you understood what I said. You need those db_progress commands before extracting each file in turn, not before the entire tar command. Like I say, I leave figuring out how to extract each file in turn up to you, but it's certainly not by just running 'tar -xvf /cdrom/stage4.tar.gz -C /target'. | 03:34 |
| cjwatson | Running a single big tar command means that you have no opportunity to update the progress bar. | 03:34 |
| user__ | can I just redirect the output of the stage4 to the install screen? | 03:35 |
| cjwatson | No. | 03:35 |
| cjwatson | Well, not sanely. I suppose you could try, but I don't really want to offer help with ghastly hacks. :) | 03:35 |
| cjwatson | the main install display runs on /dev/tty1 | 03:36 |
| user__ | What options are left, i'm in the last stage, we are about to deliver 500+ ubuntu desktop pc's. Now if I leaf it as it is, the user might think that the restoring process is frozen/not working anymore. | 03:36 |
| cjwatson | I've already offered a concrete suggestion; if you want good progress output, you need to use 'tar tf' to get the file list, and extract each in turn | 03:37 |
| cjwatson | I'm confused as to why you aren't shipping the machines preinstalled | 03:37 |
| cjwatson | the last three lines of your %post script are bogus | 03:38 |
| cjwatson | # | 03:39 |
| cjwatson | /bin/mknod -m 660 /target/dev/console c 5 1 ; | 03:39 |
| cjwatson | # | 03:39 |
| cjwatson | /bin/mknod -m 660 /target/dev/null c 1 3 ; | 03:39 |
| cjwatson | # | 03:39 |
| cjwatson | shutdown -r now | 03:39 |
| cjwatson | the system already handles creating /dev/console and /dev/null on boot (assuming you haven't broken udev), and you shouldn't shutdown at the end of a %post script - the installer will do that itself | 03:39 |
| user__ | cjwatson, because those are supposed to be recovery cd's. | 03:43 |
| cjwatson | ok | 03:44 |
| cjwatson | fair enough; you still shouldn't need to mknod stuff by hand though | 03:44 |
| cjwatson | user__: you could also create a udeb for all this and include a debconf template in it that says "Restoring system; please wait..." | 03:46 |
| cjwatson | and not bother fiddling with tar | 03:46 |
| cjwatson | creating a udeb will be slightly more work in that you'll have to regenerate the Packages and Release files, but you may be doing that anyway | 03:46 |
| cjwatson | any udeb with Priority: standard in its control file will be used by the installer by default | 03:47 |
| user__ | i'm using kickstart and preseed so only ubuntu-minmal get's installed. | 03:47 |
| user__ | hmm, i'll lookinto it. | 03:47 |
| cjwatson | you'll need to learn some basic debconf programming, but not a lot, and there are plenty of examples in the archive | 03:49 |
| user__ | any example suggestions that would make life easier? | 03:52 |

| cjwatson | you basically just need a debconf template, the debian/rules, debian/changelog, and debian/copyright build goop, and a debian/control that has Priority: standard and whatever else you want to call it | 03:57 |

| === steveire [n=stephen@unaffiliated/steveire] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| jdong | cjwatson: got it sorted out.. Somehow my debconf had already a preset nonexistant local flash directory | 06:19 |
| jdong | which was coincidentally the same location as one in the debian/config script | 06:20 |
| steveire | Hey. Is there some way I can know when my laptop makes a connection to the internet? | 06:20 |
| jdong | steveire: I'm gonna get smacked for this, but have you tried using ping? | 06:20 |
| cjwatson | steveire: scripts in /etc/ppp/ip-up.d/ are run when a PPP link comes up | 06:23 |
| neuralis | steveire: try the #ubuntu channel for support in the future. that said, dhclient has callbacks (shell scripts) that you could use to run logic such as checking for an internet connection (e.g. by connecting to google). | 06:23 |
| steveire | jdong: Wouldn't I need to run ping every minute/few minutes for that to be a solution? I'd like a scenario like this: Turn on laptop while not in a wireless zone. Walk into wireless zone. networkmanager connects. Networkmanager executes script.sh (The whole point of the operation) | 06:23 |
| steveire | neuralis: Ah, right. Sorry | 06:24 |
| cjwatson | ... but if this isn't PPP then neuralis' suggestion is more appropriate. | 06:24 |
| steveire | cjwatson: I'll look into that. PPP means broadband, right? | 06:25 |
| cjwatson | er, ish | 06:25 |
| cjwatson | it's also used for dial-up | 06:25 |

| unfo | hi all, feature-idea: feisty could come with apache2+php5 preconfigured, but apache2 would not start up until the user puts files in ~/public_html | 11:41 |
| unfo | then, as soon as you do, FAM triggers a message "Apache2 is starting, please wait". | 11:42 |
| unfo | good idea? bad idea? | 11:42 |

| unfo | or, it could pop up a paperclip icon in the systray. When you click it, it could offer to install apache2 + php5 + current mysql for you. | 11:57 |
| HrdwrBoB | er | 11:57 |
| HrdwrBoB | what desktop user needs a apache2+php5 | 11:57 |

| unfo | HrdwrBoB: any desktop user who wants to host a phpbb, mediawiki, or such on their box. | 11:59 |
| unfo | Dynamic DNS is easy to set up nowadays. | 12:00 |
| _ion | Let's install GW-BASIC in dosbox by default! That would rule! | 12:00 |
| unfo | _ion: it would be cool. | 12:00 |
| HrdwrBoB | unfo: er | 12:00 |
| HrdwrBoB | and these users are not capable of doing it themselves? | 12:00 |
| unfo | _ion: or at least freedos. | 12:00 |
| unfo | HrdwrBoB: many are not capable. | 12:00 |
| _ion | hrdwrbob: Well, it's *php* they're using. ;-) | 12:01 |
| lifeless | unfo: I think the idea of noting the user tried to use public_html a nd doing something as a result is interesting | 12:01 |
| lifeless | unfo: preinstalling apache2 etc etc etc is likely not the right thing to do IMO | 12:01 |

| unfo | lifeless: maybe it could even offer to install php and/or mod_perl and/or rails depending on the filetype dropped. | 12:03 |
| HrdwrBoB | .. mod_perl!? | 12:03 |
| lifeless | unfo: thats getting somewhere. | 12:04 |
| HrdwrBoB | if you are coding mod perl and you don't know how to install apache | 12:04 |
| HrdwrBoB | you should be shot | 12:04 |
| HrdwrBoB | though I don't disagree with the basic premise | 12:04 |
| unfo | HrdwrBoB: i plan to teach my younger brother perl sometime. | 12:05 |
| unfo | lifeless: hmm, and it could offer to install a dynamic dns auto-updater client. If it did so, though, it would automatically set you up for daily dist-upgrades. | 12:05 |
| unfo | The auto-updater client would prompt you for a dyndns.org username and password. | 12:05 |
| bhale | Microsoft doesnt tell their developers that they "should be shot" if they cant admin IIS and MS SQL server | 12:06 |
| bhale | and it is probably against our CoC | 12:06 |
| HrdwrBoB | unfo: perl != mod | 12:06 |
| HrdwrBoB | mod_perl | 12:06 |
| HrdwrBoB | bhale: mod_perl is not perl | 12:06 |
| bhale | did I use the word perl? | 12:06 |
| HrdwrBoB | ok, remove the 'shooting' language | 12:06 |
| bhale | thanks. | 12:06 |
| unfo | Then it would tell you "Your new webpage is accessible at 'machinename' from your PC or 'someusername.dyndns.org' from the greater Internet." | 12:07 |
| HrdwrBoB | I have to support a very large terrible behemoth of a disaster of a website that's written in mod_perl, so it's a touchy subject :/ | 12:07 |
| lifeless | unfo: I think what you want is something like - 'you have setup a personal home page but there is no server operating on this machine. Would you like to run our 'homepage server wizard'? ' | 12:08 |

| unfo | HrdwrBoB: :-) | 12:09 |
