Is it the feature that allows packages to say e.g. "run update-initramfs once after the current dpkg actions have finished"? [08:02] _ion: basically, yes. [08:03] ooh, thats nifty [08:04] _ion: a reason why it hasn't been implemented is we haven't decided on the semantics should a hook command fail. Say, update-initramfs fails because of full disk. Are packages unconfigured? If so, which? Which package is responsible for handling the failure, etc. [08:06] <_ion> For that example, my first thought is that packages should remain configured, but the user should be told to fix the problem and dpkg should exit with a non-zero exit value. [08:07] _ion: wouldn't that break behaviour; ie the behaviour as it is now is that all the packages would be unconfigured, right? [08:08] also, what are the semantics wrt packages depending on the package with a hook? It might not work correctly until the hook completes. [08:08] not sure if anything actually depends on that behaviour, but it doesn't sound backward compatible [08:09] Chipzz: you could argue the hooks should be done as a virtual package which is left unconfigured if any of the hooks fail. That'd at least make sure they would be retried on next upgrade/dpkg --configure -a [08:10] anyway, as you see, the semantics aren't trivial so it's not a SMOP but rather an IMOS. [08:10] Mithrandir: I was actually thinking of something like a 'Post-Depends', if that makes any sense ;) [08:10] Chipzz: postream.no-really-I-mean-it? [08:11] or rather, postinst.no-really-I-mean-it. [08:11] well, we have Pre-Depends semantics now to express the relations between packages [08:11] hooks are the opposite in a way [08:12] Post-Depend would be a (virtual) package which the package needs to be usefull [08:13] bleh, probably not making much sense ;) [08:13] I'm not quite sure I follow you, no. :-) [08:13] nevermind then :) [08:13] I think the best solution would be to revert the state of all packages needing that hook to unconfigured if the hook fails [08:16] so if your scrollkeeper hook failed, you'd have the full gnome desktop unconfigured? [08:17] hrrrm [08:17] that sounds a bit harsh. [08:17] also, what about recommends? [08:17] I'm thinking of a way which is backwards compatible [08:17] lemme rephrase maybe === predius_ [n=predius@63.99.9.135] has joined #ubuntu-devel [08:18] I think the best solution would be to revert the state of all packages _which where upgraded in that particular run_ needing that hook to unconfigured if the hook fails [08:18] you're of course right that if a package isn't installed/upgraded, but does depend on the hook, it shouldn't be unconfigured [08:19] though in some cases it may make sense [08:19] lets say we run ldconfig from a hook [08:19] failing to write out /etc/ld.so* would affect all packages depending on that hook, right?

[02:05] cjwatson: not really, no === lucas [n=lucas@ubuntu/member/lucas] has joined #ubuntu-devel [02:06] heno: OK, a udeb is an installer component - in terms of format it's like a deb only smaller, but ONLY udebs can be used to provide facilities within the installer, and udebs can ONLY be used within the installer and not on the installed system [02:06] cjwatson: "Ubuntu Deb" ? :) [02:06] apt- wants to remove libmeanwhile1 even thought it is an rdepend on gaim, nice [02:06] Keybuk: :P [02:07] infinity: i thought he fixed mdadm already. (unless you mean something else by explodes) ;) [02:07] heno: braille-support should not be talking about the "server install" - d-i is used in contexts other than server installations [02:08] right, parts are used in ubiquity I guess [02:08] heno: irrelevant here [02:08] and alternate of course [02:08] heno: d-i is also used for OEM installations, LVM/RAID (non-server), etc. [02:08] ok [02:09] and places where the desktop CD just doesn't work [02:09] right [02:09] and that's where the debian braille udeb might e useful [02:09] AFAIU [02:10] it's the only place it can possibly be useful :) [02:10] heno: anyway, my point is that there is no need for the specification to justify the use of brltty-udeb in the alternate installer - it's not possible to use anything else [02:11] at the moment, Debian appears to be including brltty-udeb in its installer images, so it probably works pretty well [02:11] right. On the live CD we would use Orca with it's braille support [02:11] it's done by means of a brltty= boot parameter [02:12] see http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=355851 [02:12] Debian bug 355851 in brltty "Re: a blindunfriendly debian installer problem" [Wishlist,Closed] [02:12] ok, so inluding it is non-controvertial === jpatrick [n=patrick@ubuntu/member/jpatrick] has joined #ubuntu-devel [02:13] cjwatson: thanks I'll polish the spec with this feedback in mind [02:15] heno: in fact, apparently the way it's set up in Debian at the moment is that brltty is automatically started if a USB Braille device is detected; you only need to supply brltty= as a boot parameter if you need a serial device [02:15] (or whatever) [02:17] cjwatson: is it installed in debian by default? [02:17] heno: if the script described in the Implementation section is a shell script (preferable) or a C program (possible), then it can be run in d-i [02:17] cjwatson: we installed it during dapper, but then disabled the automatic loading [02:17] heno: in the installed system? I don't know [02:18] heno: it's loaded as an installer component by default, AFAICS [02:18] cjwatson: a default install always makes it more controversial :) [02:18] heno: "language: should this be python or a shell script?" <- if it's in python then you can't use it in d-i [02:18] esp. if it may do odd things [02:18] so I recommend a shell script [02:20] heno: we made sure the daemon doesn't start by default on most systems; I have no problem with automatically starting the daemon if a Braille device is physically present, though [02:20] heno: detecting USB devices is done by udev rules === KaiL [n=KaiL@p548F46E1.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [02:20] I wasn't actually planning to call it from (or before) d-i, but that would also help [02:20] those exist in brltty-udeb already [02:21] heno: I think we should [02:21] most of the work has already been done [02:21] right, so if F5+6 happens and no USB device is found [02:21] run the script no matter what system it is [02:21] cool! [02:23] cjwatson: does udev need more information about braille devices to do the right thing (start the deamon) or should that all be working already?

[06:48] Then later I resume the hibernated system and it keeps using the filesystems. [06:48] ah, right [06:48] Result: hideous filesystem nightmare corruption doom. [06:48] iwj: so it shouldn't mount dirty fs-es. [06:48] Right. [06:48] This actually trashed my Ubuntu install at UBZ. [06:49] the current livecd doesn't automount partitions, so that would have been through some action of yours though. [06:49] in which case I'm a little less concerned. [06:49] Mithrandir: Indeed. But isn't MountAllLocalFilesystems supposed to change that ? [06:49] we'll not do automatic mounting of partitions anyway [06:49] And anyway it happens if you dual boot, too. [06:50] Err, are you using `partition' to mean `on a hard disk' here ? [06:50] right, I do; sorry [06:50] Ie, distinguishing those from usb-storage. [06:50] Well, the problem exists with usb-storage too. [06:50] Do we automatically unmount usb-storage before hibernating ? More to the point, does everyone ? [06:50] hm, people hibernate on removable partitions which aren't in fstab? [06:51] No, no, you misunderstand. [06:51] This trashing doesn't just happen to the disk you hibernate onto. [06:51] It happens to any disk mounted by the hibernated install, when during the hibernation another setup mounts it. [06:51] ah, I see [06:51] (sorry, half of brain is in meeting) [06:51] :-) [06:52] Removable storage vanishes on hibernation right now [06:52] iwj: is there a way to tell if a partition is dirty? [06:52] pitti: Not generically [06:52] if so, then we should generally refuse to gnome-/automount dirty partitions [06:53] mjg59: but for a particular fs type, I assume? [06:53] Note that journaled fs's generally replay the journal to the disk even if you mount readonly. (!!!) [06:53] pitti: Yes. You need to in order to know whether to fsck or not [06:53] TMBSNMOTW "readonly" OWIWPU etc. === anibal [n=anibal@debian/developer/anibal] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:53] iwj: The fs wouldn't necessarily be consistent otherwise [06:53] mjg59: Well, duh. [06:54] Obviously I don't mind getting EIO for some of the contents. [06:54] Semantically, "readonly" has two meanings [06:54] But there's only one option [06:54] It used only to have one meaning and nowadays it has silently changed to let the fs write to the disk. [06:54] Mounting a dirty ext2 also involved mounting a possibly-inconsistent fs and you were supposed to fsck first. [06:55] But no-one suggested that you should fsck before mounting ro! [06:55] I can't believe you're defending this crazy behaviour. [06:56] That didn't fit my recollection, but on checking the code, you're right === pvanhoof [n=pvanhoof@d54C0EE14.access.telenet.be] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:58] Err, I meant "before Linux hard journaled fs's" so I don't understand what you were checking. [06:58] ext2 will print a warning about mounting an unchecked fs [06:58] Yes. [06:58] But skips that if you mount it read-only === raphink [n=raphink@ubuntu/member/raphink] has joined #ubuntu-devel [06:58] Obviously. I don't mind it printing warnings. [06:59] OIC. [06:59] Yes. But that's not my point. [07:00] Supposing ext2 fsck built into the kernel for some reason. Then no-one would have tolerated it running that and writing to the disk when told to mount ro. === blackskad [n=blackska@d54C1A872.access.telenet.be] has joined #ubuntu-devel === Seeker` [n=a@195-112-32-183.dyn.gotadsl.co.uk] has joined #ubuntu-devel [07:07] cjwatson: five second summary; new_id and bind aren't available to udev because the uevents come in too early [07:07] and because they're a function of the *driver*, something udev has no information about, and no mapping from modules to drivers [07:07] this needs fixing in the kernel === somerville32 [n=ubuntu@fctnnbsc15w-156034088135.nb.aliant.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [07:09] I think the X driver saves the registers [07:09] cjwatson: not always.. some drivers almost reinit the card each time you switch stuff around like console <-> X === KaiL [n=KaiL@p548F46E1.dip.t-dialin.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel [07:10] fabbione: But they try to switch back to whatever mode you switched out of [07:10] mjg59: true [07:11] So if we want to switch back to text mode, we need to switch out of text mode [07:11] pitti: got a minute? === zch [n=manuel@85-124-174-194.dynamic.xdsl-line.inode.at] has joined #ubuntu-devel [07:11] pitti: why does gvm say this in it's logfile: A security policy in place prevents this sender from sending this message to this recipient, see message bus configuration file (rejected message had interface "org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.Volume" member "Mount" error name "(unset)" destination "org.freedesktop.Hal") [07:11] lamont: in meeting, but I'll answer in a bit [07:11] pitti: want me to email you all 5 files?

[10:59] mdke_: hehe, I'll do that if I ever figure out how to set up Xen :) [11:00] :) [11:02] there are multiple howtos since xen isn't exactly supportable on pre-edgy [11:02] not without grabbing stuff from edgy, or rolling your own [11:05] ajmitch: I was considering going with xen sources and rolling my own [11:05] ajmitch: I guess I'll improvise :) [11:06] Edgy Xen hypervisor didn't boot on my machine, which puzzled me [11:06] maybe I'm trying to use xen on a cursed machine [11:06] oh well, what the heck else am I supposed to do on thanksgiving?

[11:19] ajmitch: I think it's the hypervisor [11:19] ajmitch: I get less than half a screenful of text and then a reset [11:19] ok [11:19] ajmitch: so I couldn't really determine if it was the hypervisor or trying xen0 [11:19] it was an AMD64 with LVM/device-mapper [11:19] so it might've been an unusual setup === ajmitch previously got as far as kernel panic & reboot, now it's up to not having stuff in initramfs [11:19] hardly unusual [11:20] ah, ok [11:20] maybe I just gave up too early then [11:20] ajmitch: though I would expect mkinitramfs to put in all the modules that all my other initramfs'es have? [11:20] sure, but I wasn't using a packaged kernel as such [11:21] ah, ok [11:21] the only bit I copied in over the existing xen image was vmlinuz [11:22] mmm I see [11:22] well, off to reboot into xen [11:23] hope for the best :) [11:25] Spads: 2.6.16 is known to work with xen on amd64, as long as you load the appropriate modules in order to start guests [11:26] ajmitch: oh?
