[12:12] <lifeless> ogra: the nfs mount offers the cdrom image only
[12:13] <twb> lifeless: you want to unite a read-only NFS root with a ramdisk?
[12:15] <ogra> lifeless, so you simply need ltsp with the chroot replaced by the iso image ? 
[12:16] <ogra> do you need to loop mount it before the nf export or do we have it mounted anywhere visible (below the union) ?
[12:16] <ogra> s/nf/nfs/
[12:17] <twb> If you're talking about a read-only NFS root merged casper-style with a tmpfs ramdisk, debian-live currently does that, and I'm hassling Mithrandir to dupload my code so that feisty will do it, too.
[12:17] <twb> Currently, Ubuntu does not support it.
[12:18] <ogra> twb, actually the spec was about providing ltsp from a livecd ... 
[12:18] <ogra> somehow it mutated ... 
[12:18] <twb> OK, ignore me then.
[12:18] <ogra> whyt lifeless wants to provide is not the unionfs merged piece but only the iso ...
[12:19] <ogra> *what
[12:19] <twb> I see.
[12:20] <ogra> so your clients boot the iso like its attached locally ... 
[12:21] <ogra> twb, yur code would enable real ltsp thin clients from liveCDs if i understand t right
[12:22] <ogra> (which is a very bad idea wrt disk access ... apart from demoing with a single client)
[12:23] <lifeless> ogra: I need what I've put together
[12:23] <twb> What my code does is allow up to, say, 100 1GHz diskless clients to boot from a single read-only NFS export.
[12:23] <lifeless> twb: yes, its casper. Read the spec
[12:23] <twb> And strictly speaking, it's not my code.
[12:24] <twb> Actually 100 is probably a rather modest ceiling for a 100baseT network.
[12:24] <ogra> 100 1 Ghz clients ? from a single CDrom ? 
[12:24] <ogra> what kind of cdrom do you have attached there ? a 300x one ?
[12:25] <twb> ogra: what CD-ROM?
[12:25] <lifeless> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveCDShareThisCD
[12:25] <twb> It's NFS, not a CD.
[12:25] <lifeless> twb: ^ have you read that ?
[12:25] <twb> Oh, you want to boot the server off the same CD.  I"m not doing that.
[12:25] <lifeless> twb: eventually. Read the manual prototype down the bottom.
[12:25] <ogra> its a liveCD with the opportunity to booot thin clients from
[12:26] <lifeless> ogra: the point is that they are not regular thing clients, they are casper clients
[12:26] <ogra> which turned into a liveCD with the opportunity to boot full diskless workstations from ;)
[12:26] <ogra> lifeless, right
[12:26] <lifeless> ogra: so you can boot the machine, and then install locally
[12:26] <lifeless> and dont need any writable network area
[12:26] <ogra> yep understood
[12:27] <lifeless> now, in fact, for what I needed, booting the server off the ISO is irrelevant
[12:27] <twb> I don't understand why any of this is confusing.  I've been doing it with Knoppix for two years.
[12:27] <lifeless> but that spec was the best place to document what I did.
[12:27] <lifeless> twb: Its not confusing me ;)
[12:27] <ogra> neither me :)
[12:29] <twb> I wish people wouldn't use unbound personal pronouns on wiki entries.
[12:29] <twb> "For linux.conf.au I setup a machine that shared out a liveCD, perhaps called a LiveNetboot ;)."
[12:29] <lifeless> twb: thats me, sorry.
[12:30] <twb> lifeless: were you the guy asking for g3 mac keyboards on the luv list?
[12:30] <lifeless> nope
[12:30] <lifeless> fixed that to say who I am ;)
[12:31] <twb> Good, good.
[12:32] <ogra> twb, were you the guy i discussed the ltsp liveCD with one year ago in #ltsp ? 
[12:33] <twb> I dunno
[12:33] <twb> Possibly.
[12:34] <lifeless> ogra: where I'd like to go from here is getting all the software changes done, so that doing this manually is easy: merging casper changes, adding the udevtrigger too, fixing pxelinux GFXBOOT support
[12:34] <ogra> look at ltsp-update-kernels for the pxe and tftp stuff
[12:34] <twb> lifeless: um, the syslinux people (who maintain pxelinux) are adamant that GFXBOOT is the devil, and you should use vesamenu instead.
[12:34] <lifeless> ogra: then while its still not automated, as long as we include the relevant packages on the livecd, you can manually do livecd sharing at a conference starting with just a livecd and no net
[12:34] <twb> ...just FYI
[12:34] <ogra> (and use a maintained tftp server :P)
[12:34] <lifeless> twb: I know
[12:35] <lifeless> twb: however, our isolinux is patched with gfxboot
[12:35] <lifeless> pxelinux shows splash screens ok, but doesn't show the graphical 'loading vmlinuz' progress bar
[12:35] <ogra> well, it shouldnt be to had to have some hardcded things you can force through a bootoption to get a running tftp server that offers you netbooting
[12:36] <twb> lifeless: really? I couldn't get it that far.
[12:36] <ogra> i heard grub2 should be able to do netboot but i never looked deeper ...
[12:36] <lifeless> twb: splash.rle and splash.pcx need to be in / 
[12:36] <twb> lifeless: you mean in the tftp server's root directory?
[12:36] <ogra> that should be able to give you the progress bar
[12:36] <lifeless> twb: yes
[12:37] <twb> i.e. /tftpboot, typically
[12:37] <ogra> if thats no option you probably need to hack up gfxboot to be network aware
[12:37] <twb> I tried that and it still didn't work.
[12:37] <twb> ...IIIRC, anyway
[12:37] <ogra> oh, please use FHS compliant dirs ...
[12:37] <lifeless> twb: try with the edgy syslinux package copy of pxelinux.0 perhaps
[12:37] <ogra> /var/lib/tftpboot is the right one
[12:37] <twb> I apologize; I'm being forced to use RHEL against my will
[12:37] <lifeless> twb: its a single file :)
[12:37] <lifeless> twb: just copy it out ;)
[12:38] <Riddell> glatzor: hi, why do you ask about software-properties?
[12:38] <Riddell> glatzor: we do yes
[12:38] <twb> I tried it with the Debian syslinux package, because it was newer.
[12:38] <lifeless> twb: all I can say for sure is that if you follow the recipe I documented, it will work :)
[12:38] <twb> Fairy nuff.
[12:39] <lifeless> ogra: gfxboot is a patch to syslinux, need to find why the patch is not affecting pxelinux.0, but syslinux FTBFS for me
[12:39] <ogra> hmm
[12:40] <ogra> i know cbx33 worked with bootmenus in PXE and syslinux, try to catch him tomorrow :)
[12:40] <ogra> he probably knows more
[12:40] <glatzor> Riddell: since I am a co author. I offered you to write s-p in a desktop neutral way at Paris, since we reworked the user interface :)
[12:40] <lifeless> ogra: I've worked with them before :). 
[12:41] <ogra> ltsp doesnt hide the uncompressing stuff .... 
[12:41] <lifeless> ogra: had the hardware build process for embedded routers running stripped woody driven completely via pxe 
[12:41] <ogra> it gets graphical once usplash kicks in
[12:41] <glatzor> Riddell: currently the code is very gtk centric.
[12:41] <lifeless> ogra: do you have the splash screen ?
[12:42] <lifeless> ogra: or no pretty stuff at all ?
[12:42] <ogra> on my thin clients ? yes
[12:42] <lifeless> ogra: yeah, the pxelinux one.
[12:42] <ogra> all the pretty stuff :)
[12:42] <lifeless> ogra: so you just dont have teh 'uncompressing progress bar' as a gui - you get ...... instead ?
[12:43] <Riddell> glatzor: times have changed a bit since paris, and the spec we were looking at then didn't happen, so for feisty the plan is to look at software-properties again
[12:43] <ogra> if you boot a thin client, you see the PXE transfer and after thats done initramfs kicks in with usplash
[12:43] <glatzor> Riddell: So generally I could move all the GTK parts to a not yet existing class SoftwarePropertiesGtk and make it an inheritance of SoftwareProperties
[12:43] <lifeless> ogra: right, we are agreeing vigourously
[12:43] <ogra> yep
[12:43] <Riddell> glatzor: that sounds lovely
[12:43] <Riddell> glatzor: did manchicken contact you?
[12:43] <glatzor> Riddell: do should also correct the spec :) it talks about system-properties and not software-properties by the way :)
[12:44] <glatzor> Riddell: not yet. mvo told me about your plan
[12:45] <Riddell> glatzor: I blame mvo for not reviewing it properly :)
[12:45] <glatzor> Riddell: the alias sounds funny :)
[12:46] <glatzor> Riddell: so manchicken will do the python-qt part?
[12:46] <Riddell> glatzor: he's looking at it yes
[12:47] <Riddell> glatzor: he has commented that it's quite tied to GTK
[12:47] <glatzor> Riddell: Ii changed a lot in software-properties recently. but the new bits are only available in my local repository, since we need some new build deps in ubuntu before
[12:48] <Riddell> glatzor: you don't have a branch on launchpad?
[12:48] <glatzor> Riddell: the source tree of update-manager ist already splitted. 
[12:49] <glatzor> Riddell: AFAIK there is not even yet a product for software-properties
[12:50] <Riddell> ah, well that's a good start at least
[12:50] <Riddell> glatzor: make one make one!
[12:50] <ogra> isnt that part of synaptic ? 
[12:50] <Riddell> ogra: it only maskerades as a part of synaptic
[12:51] <ogra> ah
[12:51] <Riddell> ogra: synaptic in ubuntu uses software-properties if it's installed, else it uses its own editor
[12:51] <glatzor> ogra: the source code of the software-properties is currently part of update-manager
[12:52] <ogra> ah, right, update.manager, not synaptic ...
[12:52] <glatzor> ogra: Riddell: there will be even a third package in the future: python-aptsources
[12:52] <ogra> glatzor, btw there is a new g-ss package up ... i think we should put the debian dir into bzr and on LP ...
[12:52] <glatzor> it provides the abstraction of the sources.list
[12:53] <ogra> yep, there is a spec for that
[12:53] <glatzor> ogra: oh, I am not so familiar with the specs for feisty
[12:53] <glatzor> I mainly work on my stuff :)
[12:54] <ogra> https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/software-channels
[12:58] <glatzor> ogra: oh no. it abstracts the content of the sources. list :)
[12:58] <glatzor> this was a misunderstanding
[12:58] <glatzor> aptsources determines the current used distribution and which compoents and sub repository are used
[12:59] <ogra> ah
[01:00] <glatzor> Riddell: in which time zone does manchicken live?
[01:01] <ogra> woah, is there still the CC going on ? 
[01:01] <sladen> win 103
[01:01] <dsas> ogra: Still a quarter of the member applicants to go through
[01:01] <mdke> whoa.
[01:01] <mdke> 103?
[01:02] <mdke> that's serious business
[01:02] <Riddell> glatzor: US I think
[01:02] <ogra> mdke, well, there was a significant backlog ...
[01:03] <mdke> yeah
[01:04] <mdz> BenC: are these "usbdev...resume from 0, parent...still 2" messages normal?
[01:05] <mdz> BenC: I see them when hibernating my thinkpad
[01:10] <alex-weej> is there ever going to be printed CDs for non-LTS releases again?
[01:10] <alex-weej> (for free :P)
[01:12] <ogra> the marketing gods might know :P
[01:12] <glatzor> Riddell: I hope that I can work on the desktop neutrality of software-properties next week. so it would be nice if manchicken could get into contact with me.
[01:12] <alex-weej> when is the next LTS due?
[01:12] <alex-weej> October?
[01:12] <glatzor> bye
[01:15] <Riddell> gnomefreak: great, I'll poke him

[11:32] <cjwatson> Mithrandir: so I wouldn't stress about publishing the current ubiquity in accepted
[11:33] <gpocentek> somerville32: thanks!
[11:34] <Mithrandir> cjwatson: oh well, ok.
[11:34] <Mithrandir> cjwatson: can you do the fix and get it uploaded then?
[11:34] <Mithrandir> I'll just turn the publisher back on auto again.
[11:35] <cjwatson> yeah, working on it
[11:38] <maxb> pitti: Hello. I found your contact info via launchpad. Would you possibly be able to review and give your opinion on apache2 bug https://launchpad.net/bugs/62748 when you have a moment? Thanks!
[11:38] <Ubugtu> Malone bug 62748 in subversion "2.0.55-4ubuntu4 update causes svn failure" [Undecided,Confirmed]  
[11:39] <pitti> maxb: not really my speciality (rather Mithrandir's), but I can have a look
[11:42] <maxb> ah, right, just found you as uploader. Thanks for looking, though
[11:43] <pitti> well, I was the poor soul that requested the sync, yes :)
[11:44] <cjwatson> blink, something's very weird with python's tarfile module
[11:45] <cjwatson> Mithrandir: this d-i unpack thing is reproducible
[11:45] <Mithrandir> cjwatson: crack.
[11:45] <Mithrandir> just what we needed.  Good thing it's not release. :-)
[11:45] <cjwatson> tar.list() genuinely does stop at that point
[11:46] <cjwatson> there's another bug in the d-i handler I've noticed, but that's not this problem
[11:46] <pitti> last time I reported a tarfile bug upstream, it got fixed within a day, but I guess that doesn't really help us now
[11:46] <Mithrandir> I wonder why this suddenly surfaced with ubuntu10.
[11:46] <cjwatson> possibly because the names all got longer
[11:47] <cjwatson> the tar format gets strange for long names
[11:47] <cjwatson> well, I say "the" tar format. pick one.
[11:48] <Mithrandir> no longer than debian-installer_20060711ubuntu13, which presumably worked.
[11:50] <cjwatson> might have been an upgrade since then? dunno
[11:51] <Mithrandir> oh, true, drescher was dapperised some time back, wasn't it?
[11:51] <cjwatson> I'm waiting for it to download so that I can test it a bit more thoroughly
[11:53] <pitti> maxb: doesn't tell anything to me; is it still an issue in feisty with apache 2.2?
[11:55] <cjwatson> Mithrandir: I'd suggest leaving the publisher on byhand for the moment, TBH
[11:56] <maxb> I don't know. I don't really have a spare machine around to install feisty on to check.
[11:56] <Mithrandir> cjwatson: ok, disabled again
[11:58] <maxb> As far as the launchpad bug is concerned, I was really hoping for some sort of semi-official comment along the lines of "This is bad, we'll consider an edgy update" or "Oops, but we don't have the resources to test a stable update properly now that the world has moved on to apache 2.2"
[12:00] <cjwatson> maxb: I'd consider that for a stable update, if a core developer took it up and ran with it
[12:03] <dholbach> Mithrandir: the vte update is nice to have, but not urgent either
[12:06] <cjwatson> Mithrandir: ubiquity 1.3.10 in unapproved
[12:07] <maxb> In an ideal world, there'd be an apache2 stable update, but I can certainly respect that re-familiarising with apache 2.0 in order to do the necessary testing might be more trouble than it's worth. Either way it'd be nice to have an acknowledgement in the bug noting what the decision is.
[12:15] <Mithrandir> cjwatson: accepted; I'll byhand the publisher now
[12:34] <Riddell> Mithrandir: the CD build this morning didn't do kubuntu feisty desktop i386?
[12:35] <Mithrandir> Riddell: no, we found an interesting bug in python which made it blow up.
[12:35] <Mithrandir> Riddell: and ubiquity went AWOL in the queue, so until that's published, no need to test.
[12:37] <pitti> carlos: no ru tsclient.po in today's edgy-updates tarball :(
[12:37] <geser> Mithrandir: before I close bug #78550: are you happy with the description now?
[12:37] <Ubugtu> Malone bug 78550 in gnome-chemistry-utils "incorrect description" [Undecided,Unconfirmed]  https://launchpad.net/bugs/78550
[12:38] <carlos> pitti: fucking cache bug...
[12:38] <carlos> pitti: let me check with danilo whether he fixed that bug. I thought that wouldn't affect us, but seems like I'm wrong...
[12:38] <Mithrandir> geser: sure, looks good to me
[12:39] <Hobbsee> Mithrandir: blowing up python bugs?  COOL!!!
[12:39] <somerville32> gpocentek, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Xubuntu/Current
[12:40] <geser> Mithrandir: could you please give-back gchempaint? thanks
[12:40] <Mithrandir> Hobbsee: you have to love the tar file formats.
[12:40] <Hobbsee> Mithrandir: yep :P
[12:40] <Mithrandir> geser: given-back.
[12:40] <Mithrandir> Hobbsee: who needs more than 100-char long file names anyway?
[12:41] <Hobbsee> Mithrandir: hehe, exactly
[12:41] <Hobbsee> is jono the only moderator for ubuntu-devel?
[12:41] <elmo> no, the whole distro team is
[12:41] <Hobbsee> oh right.  if they could approve my post, i'd be greatful
[12:44] <heno> Mithrandir: what is the canonical place to notify people to start testing new builds? the wiki page, this chan?
[12:44] <heno> I mean Herd candidates
[12:44] <carlos> pitti: could you wait until tomorrow to do the language pack upload?
[12:44] <pitti> carlos: sure
[12:45] <carlos> pitti: seems like later today, the cache problem would be deployed in the server where we generate language packs
[12:45] <carlos> so tomorrow you would get fixed language packs
[12:45] <pitti> carlos: ok, I'll check out tomorrow's
[12:46] <Mithrandir> heno: I tend to ask for testing here, but it's not an ideal place.
[12:46] <Mithrandir> Hobbsee: approved.
[12:46] <carlos> pitti: thank you
[12:46] <heno> Mithrandir: perhaps we need a testing-announce list
[12:46] <Hobbsee> Mithrandir: thanks.  i'm still figting with LP over emails, and accepted stuff.
[12:46] <gpocentek> somerville32: great, thanks
[12:47] <Hobbsee> Mithrandir: apparently not all the addresses on the keys of -dev and -core-dev are allowed to post, just those in LP
[12:47] <Mithrandir> heno: email is kinda async, often images are like "please test $image" then five minutes later "or not, it's broken like $blah".
[12:47] <heno> right
[12:48] <heno> Mithrandir: the testing wiki page is kept reasonably up to date though right?
[12:48] <somerville32> gpocentek, np
[12:49] <heno> It should in theory always list the latest candidates
[12:49] <Mithrandir> heno: yes.
[12:50] <Mithrandir> heno: but it sometimes (like now) lists candidates that, well, aren't.  If people start caring about the versions there and taking them as cues to when to begin testing, I'll try to remove versions when they're known-broken
[12:51] <heno> cool, or mark them as known broken in some way until a new one is actually built, whatever
[12:53] <somerville32> elmo: Is there anyway I could check the status of my rt ticket?
[12:56] <elmo> somerville32: the RT interface isn't public I'm afraid, but you can ask a sysadmin, here on #canonical-sysadmin
[12:56] <ogra> Mithrandir, is there a blocking reason why there are no new edubuntu isos or are they just not there because i didnt request them yet ? 
[12:57] <Mithrandir> ogra: they're not there because d-i is fucked ATM.  I could spin you livefs-es.
[12:57] <Mithrandir> (that was a question even with the lack of a question mark)
[12:58] <ogra> if they are known to be half way sane 
[12:58] <Mithrandir> I believe they are
[12:58] <ogra> then shoot :)
[12:59] <Mithrandir> running
[01:00] <cjwatson> er
[01:00] <cjwatson> Mithrandir: Edubuntu needs the same ubiquity fix as is pending publication now ...
[01:00] <cjwatson> so livefses will need to be rebuilt anyway
[01:01] <cjwatson> Mithrandir: d-i is happy now
[01:01] <cjwatson> modulo mirroring and stuff
[01:01] <ogra> Mithrandir, uhm ... seems my edubuntu-meta upload from yesterday didnt end up on the CD ...
[01:02] <ogra> colins daily CD report still shows schooltool and lilo as broken ...
[01:02] <cjwatson> did you get a mail acknowledgement for it
[01:02] <ogra> drop the CDs for now, i have to look whats wrong after the edubuntu meeting
[01:02] <cjwatson> ?
[01:02] <ogra> i got an accepted mail ...
[01:02] <ogra> To: 	ogra@ubuntu.com, feisty-changes@lists.ubuntu.com
[01:02] <ogra> Subject: 	Accepted edubuntu-meta 1.23 (source)
[01:02] <cjwatson> it should end up on the next round of CDs, then
[01:03] <cjwatson> might not have been in the previous round, but that isn't important
[01:03] <ogra> looked fine to me
[01:03] <Mithrandir> cjwatson: press reload in your web browser.
[01:03] <Mithrandir> s/cjwatson/ogra/
[01:03] <Mithrandir> cjwatson: ah, point.
[01:03] <ogra> Mithrandir, i'm getting the cd healthreport by mail ...
[01:03] <cjwatson> ogra: the mailed report was based on CDs that don't matter any more
[01:03] <ogra> ah, ok
[01:03] <cjwatson> who cares if it wasn't on the *last* one :-)
[01:03] <Lure> Mithrandir: is it known that kubuntu daily-live i386 is missing?
[01:04] <ogra> then ignore my previous words :)
[01:04] <cjwatson> Lure: yes
[01:04] <Mithrandir> Lure: yes, it's a python bug which made a d-i upload blow up.
[01:04] <cjwatson> Lure: it should be fixed very shortly
[01:04] <Lure> cjwatson: ok, no pb will download then later
[01:08] <heno> Riddell: are you using this page for testing https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Kubuntu/Current or just https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Current
[01:08] <Hobbsee> heno: which one's better for us to use?
[01:08] <heno> I'd like to put them all on the form https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Current/*buntu
[01:08] <heno> so there is some consistency
[01:09] <Hobbsee> heno: sure, OK
[01:09] <heno> I'll move it there and just put a forward
[01:09] <heno> Riddell: please ACK when you are around ^
[01:09] <Riddell> heno: second one
[01:10] <Riddell> heno: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Current is the one I'd expect to be used
[01:10] <heno> Riddell: ok, I'm about to splitt that up into separate *buntus
[01:10] <Hobbsee> Riddell: i suspect that we're all using different sections of the wiki :P
[01:10] <heno> which is bad :)
[01:10] <Riddell> heno: good with me
[01:10] <heno> ok, cool
[01:12] <Mithrandir> Hobbsee: the tuxguitar licence bug seems to have been fixed in Debian, so feel free to reask for a sync.
[01:12] <Hobbsee> Mithrandir: right
[01:12] <incorrect> is this the right place to talk about backports especially prevu ?
[01:12] <bhale> incorrect: probably fair enough, but you need jdub 
[01:12] <bhale> ugh
[01:12] <bhale> you need jdong 
[01:13] <incorrect> jdub?
[01:13] <bhale> no.
[01:13] <incorrect> is that a package?
[01:13] <bhale> jdong is the person behind prevu
[01:13] <Amaranth> jdong is a person
[01:13] <incorrect> ah
[01:13] <incorrect> sorry
[01:13] <incorrect> my bad
[01:15] <Lathiat> ppor jdong ;)
[01:15] <Lathiat> *poor
[01:15] <incorrect> sorry i didn't know :S
[01:16] <jdub> heh
[01:18] <Hobbsee> incorrect: jdong.  and not here.  we dont deal in prevucrack here
[01:18] <Hobbsee> :)
[01:19] <incorrect> wibble
[01:19] <Hobbsee> wobble
[01:22] <Amaranth> hobbsee: I thought prevucrack was official stuff now
[01:23] <Hobbsee> Amaranth: i never heard that
[01:23] <Amaranth> official tool of the official backports team ;)
[01:24] <Hobbsee> ah
[01:24] <Hobbsee> dunno about that
[01:24] <Amaranth> either way, seems harmless enough
[01:24] <Amaranth> it just automates what the backports team does anyway, it doesn't hack packages to work on older versions or anything
[01:25] <Hobbsee> heno: i moved the content of /testing/kubuntu/current to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Current/Kubuntu - hope that's what you wanted to do
[01:25] <Hobbsee> Amaranth: true.  i've just seen people attempt to backport crack with it :P
[01:25] <Hobbsee> like, dbus, then whine that the deps dont work
[01:26] <Amaranth> but that crack ftbfs so it's all good :)
[01:26] <heno> Hobbsee: Yes, I was merging if from Testing/Current too. I think we even had an edit conflict :)
[01:26] <Amaranth> someone i know tried using it to backport hal and dbus and rhythmbox to dapper for ipod support
[01:26] <Hobbsee> heno: argh, sorry!
[01:26] <Hobbsee> Amaranth: yeah.  silly people.
[01:27] <heno> np
[01:27] <Hobbsee> Amaranth: and someone tried to backport the feisty kernel to dapper with prevu
[01:27] <Amaranth> *headdesk*
[01:27] <thom> rofl
[01:28] <Hobbsee> hehe
[01:28] <Hobbsee> hey thom 
[01:28] <Hobbsee> Amaranth: which is why i would suggest that they should have kept prevu private
[01:28] <Amaranth> as long as it doesn't _do_ it i don't see the harm
[01:29] <Amaranth> i think the hope is people will try it on their own before filing a bug asking for it
[01:29] <cjwatson> it can't without archive admin approval, which wouldn't be given
[01:29] <Hobbsee> cjwatson: was that related to kernels and the like?
[01:29] <Hobbsee> Amaranth: true. 
[01:29] <Amaranth> although if they do that and it works i bet they wouldn't file a bug
[01:44] <Hobbsee> evening sabdfl 
[01:47] <cjwatson> Hobbsee: regarding direct uploads from prevu to *-backports
[01:47] <cjwatson> i.e. Amaranth's comment "as long as it doesn't _do_ it"
[01:48] <Hobbsee> cjwatson: ahh, right
[01:58] <sabdfl> hi Hobbsee
[01:59] <Hobbsee> :)
[02:07] <jdub> sabdfl: oh, you might dig some of the old school videos i put up on youtube -> youtube.com/jeffwaugh
[02:07] <jdub> happy memories

[02:08] <jdub> oh yeah!
[02:08] <jdub> dude, can i put that up?
[02:08] <jdub> it'll go well with the other one :)
[02:09] <Treenaks> jdub: sure
[02:09] <sabdfl> jdub: damn, that JUST PLAYED!
[02:09] <sabdfl> (plus it's a cool vid ;-))
[02:10] <jdub> i think that's 'cos treenaks has something special on his site -- cortado?
[02:10] <Treenaks> jdub: no
[02:10] <Treenaks> jdub: it's just ogg files with the right mime-type
[02:10] <sabdfl> is that some sort of feisty ogg player plugin we install?
[02:10] <jdub> ah, so it does the proper totem plugin foo
[02:11] <jdub> yes, totem is now fully awesome
[02:11] <Treenaks> sabdfl: There is a totem-firefox-plugin thing that works really great in edgy (and feisty) for me
[02:11] <jdub> it mimics quicktime and wmp
[02:11] <jdub> RAW POWER.
[02:13] <Treenaks> I'm having some sound problems on amd64 though
[02:13] <Treenaks> But that bug is going to be fixed :)
[02:19] <Mithrandir> *sigh*; powerpc still oversized.
[02:24] <EmxBA> (msg sabdfl there?
[02:24] <EmxBA> :)
[02:28] <Hobbsee> Mithrandir: the biggest package?
[02:28] <Mithrandir> Hobbsee: ooo? :-P
[02:28] <Hobbsee> Mithrandir: there's a good start
[02:29] <Hobbsee> Mithrandir: the logic being, that if you throw off one of the biggest ones, you wont have to deal with ppc being oversized again for a long while :D
[02:29] <Mithrandir> Hobbsee: that's a nice theory.
[02:32] <jdub> Treenaks: hrm, what's the original date on that sucker? :)
[02:33] <Mithrandir> cjwatson: got any suggestions?  I've gone through the list of changes from herd1 and there's nothing which has really changed there, just new versions, etc.
[02:33] <alex-weej> is feisty+1 LTS?
[02:33] <alex-weej> and can i order some free CD's NOW so i'm first in line? :P
[02:33] <Mithrandir> alex-weej: it has not been announced, but my personal guess is no.
[02:34] <mneptok> alex-weej: the official Canonical crystal ball is out being cleaned ATM ;)
[02:34] <alex-weej> hehe
[02:34] <alex-weej> the printed CD's were a great way to convince would-be users that ubuntu isn't just some bedroom project

[02:36] <mneptok> oops. inside voice, mnep. :/
[02:36] <Hobbsee> mneptok: even though it is what?
[02:36] <thom> hah.
[02:37] <mneptok> Hobbsee: a "bedroom project," Miss Sexy.
[02:37] <Treenaks> jdub: probably 2005-10-18 (as it was my birthday..)
[02:37] <Hobbsee> mneptok: oh, right.  thought you were saying it was a LTS.
[02:37] <Hobbsee> mneptok: and no, i'm not interested in your bedroom.
[02:37] <mneptok> it is, if LTS = Let's Talk *SEXY*!
[02:38] <mneptok> Hobbsee: you are obviously a woman of taste and discretion ;)
[02:38] <Hobbsee> mneptok: :P indeed
[02:39] <jdub> Treenaks: :)
[02:39] <Hobbsee> poor mneptok 
[02:40] <mneptok> Hobbsee: my cup of insincerity is already full, but thanks anyway :)

[02:42] <mneptok> jdub: ping
[02:43] <jdub> mneptok: pong
[02:43] <mneptok> jdub: mind a /query ?
[02:45] <jdub> mneptok: ok
[02:45] <cjwatson> alex-weej: no future LTS schedule has been set yet

[03:45] <bddebian> Mithrandir: Hi, sorry bug you again, but I'm not sure if you ever got a chance to get back to me about what to do about libparagui?
[03:46] <Mithrandir> bddebian: you need to make sure the LGPL and the GPL are in the orig.tar.gz.
[03:46] <Mithrandir> easiest way is to get upstream to add them
[03:47] <bddebian> That's what I was afraid of.  Thanks.  They just need to add it to COPYING?
[03:47] <Mithrandir> iirc, the copying file there was nonexistent or just contained the gpl blurb, didn't it?
[03:48] <bddebian> Aye, just gpl
[03:48] <pitti> jdong: just building the source on edgy should work
[03:48] <Mithrandir> if it goes in a new file or COPYING or LICENCE or something else isn't something I care that much about.  The main point it needs to be there.

[04:03] <Riddell> Mithrandir: the kubuntu desktop CDs don't seem to have cjwatson's casper patch
[04:03] <seb128> slomo: around? 
[04:03] <jdong> pitti: heck yeah, you bet it is :) no more rebuilding hal for us :)
[04:03] <jdong> pitti: is the patch trivial enough for a SRU?
[04:04] <pitti> jdong: not really trivial
[04:04] <seb128> iwj: we should probably do a CVS snapshot for gstreamer and gst-plugins-base0.10, that's the easiest way
[04:04] <jdong> :(
[04:04] <jdong> pitti: how often does HAL get hit with some sort of security bug
[04:04] <seb128> iwj: we will have new version before feisty so that's not an issue to have a snapshot packaged for now
[04:05] <pitti> jdong: no security updates so far
[04:05] <jdong> ok, cool
[04:05] <jdong> well, it needed a libvolumeid-dev build-dep rename
[04:05] <jdong> so a developer has to upload it to edgy-backports
[04:05] <pitti> jdong: but the issue is that intrusive patches need proper testing, so if you think about sneaking in the patch into some security update, I have to disappoint you
[04:05] <jdong> no, I wasn't thinking to sneak it into a security update
[04:06] <jdong> I was more weighing on the risks of backporting it
[04:06] <pitti> ah, I see
[04:06] <pitti> jdong: I can add the alternative build-dep if you want me
[04:06] <jdong> pitti: yes, that'd be very helpful, thanks :)
[04:06] <pitti> jdong: I have some fixes pending in bzr head anyway, I'll upload them after the herd-2 freeze
[04:07] <jdong> cool
[04:07] <iwj> seb128: OK.  Do you want to do that or do you want to leave it to me ?  If you have a standard approach it's probably better if you do it, but I'm happy to attack it myself.
[04:07] <geser> Mithrandir: Please give-back kdesvn. Thanks
[04:07] <iwj> OK, I give up.  How do I do, in Python, the equivalent of strtoul(,,0) ?
[04:07] <pitti> jdong: libvolume-id-dev | libvolumeid-dev -> that looks correct?
[04:07] <seb128> iwj: I can do it
[04:07] <iwj> seb128: Thanks very much.
[04:07] <seb128> np
[04:08] <jdong> pitti: yes sir
[04:08] <seb128> I've to upload the libgimme-codec thing too
[04:08] <iwj> Do we have local patches to gstreamer packages ?
[04:08] <Hobbsee> who would i ask about libdvdread3?
[04:08] <iwj> We need to add dh_gstscancodecs to gstreamer-tools.
[04:09] <iwj> dh_gstscancodecs> currently sat around on my disk here.
[04:09] <pitti> jdong: committed; thanks for testing!
[04:09] <jdong> no prob :)
[04:09] <Riddell> geser: what's up with kdesvn?
[04:09] <slomo> seb128: one moment
[04:09] <Nafallo> Hobbsee: ask and see who answers? :-)
[04:10] <seb128> iwj: not that many, we have a few of them for ltsp and sinks priorities to use by example
[04:10] <seb128> adding a new patch is fine
[04:10] <geser> Riddell: the last try to build failed because subversion was old
[04:10] <seb128> iwj: could you mail me that patch?
[04:10] <iwj> seb128: OK.
[04:10] <ogra_> seb128, i belive the ltsp gstreamer patches are actually dropped now ...
[04:11] <Hobbsee> Nafallo: true.  trying to see if there's any interest in it.  (keeping one of our patches, instead of saying "if you want libdvdcss2, use an unofficial repo, like debian multimedia)
[04:11] <Nafallo> Hobbsee: I like that script back fwiw ;-)
[04:11] <ogra_> (if now, we can drop them as soon as pulse is approved for main and moved)
[04:11] <seb128> ogra_: that was some random example, the point is that we have a few patches and having an extra one is no problem :)
[04:11] <ogra_> s/now/not/
[04:11] <ogra_> seb128, yeah ...
[04:11] <slomo> ogra_, seb128: the only patches left are priority setting of sinks... i.e. pulse > alsadmix > esd > alsa ...
[04:11] <Hobbsee> Nafallo: me too -but i didnt want to reintroduce it without someone saying something about it first.  besides, i'd need a sponsor
[04:12] <seb128> slomo: ok
[04:12] <ogra_> slomo, well, i'm not yet sure if i use plain pulse or pulses alsa emulation layer for ltsp ... probably the pulse stuff can be dropped as well
[04:12] <slomo> oh, and a patch for biarch by doko
[04:13] <seb128> slomo: ok
[04:13] <iwj> seb128: YHM.
[04:13] <slomo> ogra_: well it makes sense this way even if you don't use pulse imho... as people who have pulse isntalled will get this used, other's don't see a difference
[04:13] <crimsun> ogra_: I'd have a wishlist request for pulse that I'll work on shortly (fixing .desktop Comments and) possibly hiding the unnecessary components
[04:13] <iwj> seb128: Also we have to change some of the gstreamer plugin packages to call dh_gstscancodecs.
[04:13] <ogra_> crimsun, great ...
[04:14] <iwj> The only one which g-a-i can install atm is -ugly, and I have a tiny diff for that.  Do you want that too ?
[04:14] <sivang> dh_getscancodecs... yummy
[04:14] <seb128> slomo: we need CVS snapshots for gstreamer0.10 gst-plugins-base0.10 and some patching, I'll work on that if that's fine with you
[04:14] <iwj> s/getscan/gstscan/
[04:14] <ogra_> slomo, well, i'm only saying that i wont be the one that forces the patches to stay for ltsp :)
[04:14] <seb128> iwj: yes please
[04:15] <slomo> seb128: sure, that's fine
[04:15] <crimsun> ogra_: how does hiding the menu entries for most desktop entries (since one really only needs the applet) sound to you?
[04:15] <seb128> slomo: ok, thank you
[04:15] <ogra_> crimsun, how evil do you consider using /etc/asound.conf with 
[04:15] <ogra_> pcm.!default {
[04:15] <ogra_>         type pulse
[04:15] <ogra_> }
[04:15] <ogra_> ctl.!default {
[04:15] <ogra_>         type pulse
[04:15] <ogra_> }
[04:15] <ogra_> ??
[04:15] <ogra_> crimsun, sounds good ...
[04:16] <slomo> seb128: but be aware that the cvs snapshots use -Werror... might be that stuff fails to build on some archs or after some random library update, no idea
[04:16] <crimsun> ogra_: not at all evil; that's what I added (well, per-user) to asoundconf in the most recent alsa-utils upload
[04:16] <iwj> seb128: Oh, re that patch: since it edits a Makefile.am you have to run automake too.
[04:16] <ogra_> ah, cool but we wont have a package providing a system /etc/asound.conf ?
[04:16] <seb128> slomo: don't worry, I've already packaged CVS snapshots and that's feisty, we can fix things ;)
[04:16] <iwj> seb128: But the patch I sent you doesn't include the results of running automake.
[04:17] <crimsun> ogra_: currently we don't; asoundconf only touches per-user asoundrcs and not the system-wide /etc/asound.conf
[04:17] <seb128> iwj: ok, noted
[04:17] <ogra_> crimsun, perfect ... then ltsp-client can install it in the client chroot and i'm set :)
[04:17] <crimsun> ogra_: great :)
[04:17] <crimsun> ogra_: oh, that will require the promotion of libasound2-plugins, btw
[04:18] <ogra_> oki, i'll wirte a MIR
[04:18] <crimsun> great, thanks!
[04:18] <ogra_> *write
[04:18] <iwj> seb128: YHAM
[04:19] <ogra_> crimsun, eeek ... "Depends: libasound2 (>> 1.0.12), libc6 (>= 2.5-0ubuntu1), libjack0.100.0-0 (>= 0.101.1) ..."
[04:19] <crimsun> ogra_: hmm, that's kinda nasty, since it pulls in libjack0.100.0-dev
[04:19] <ogra_> can we compile it without jack without breaking it ? 
[04:20] <seb128> iwj: "YHAM"? what does that one mean? ;)
[04:20] <crimsun> ogra_: we could try dropping the jack plugin
[04:20] <ogra_> i'll do a test compile if i'm done with iso testing
[04:20] <iwj> You Have Another Mail :-).
[04:20] <seb128> ah ok ;)
[04:21] <iwj> seb128: Thanks for your help.
[04:21] <seb128> np
[04:21] <dholbach> can we make a new policy: everybody who uses an abbreviation and it's not in /usr/bin/wtf will patch bsdgames to include it? ok? ;-)
[04:21] <seb128> I'll have a look on that and let you know if I need anything else
[04:21] <iwj> seb128: Right.
[04:22] <iwj> seb128: (I'm not very IRC-attentive right now so if you don't get me on IRC try email or feel free to phone +44 1223 561028 and we can continue on IRC or I can phone you back.)
[04:22] <seb128> iwj; ok, noted, thank you
[04:22] <Nafallo> dholbach: is it in universe? ;-)
[04:23] <dholbach> Nafallo: yes
[04:23] <Nafallo> nice :-)
[04:34] <ogra_> feisty-live-i386.iso            10-Jan-2007 14:42  699M 
[04:35] <ogra_> geez, i didnt even notice that ... living on the edge :)
[04:35] <crimsun> ogra_: http://www.sh.nu/~crimsun/alsa-plugins/alsa-plugins_1.0.13-3ubuntu1_source.changes  (builds & works fine)
[04:36] <ogra_> crimsun, do you think we need to split the package to still provide an libasound2-plugins-jack ?
[04:36] <ogra_> or do we simply not care ? 
[04:36] <ogra_> (i personally don care, but ubuntustudio might get unhappy)
[04:37] <heno> jdong: see new version of the testing guide
[04:37] <heno> http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=331123
[04:37] <crimsun> ogra_: I'll have a chat with the ubuntustudio folks; I don't see the jack alsa-lib plugin being all that serious since jackd -d alsa -d hw:foo would be used anyway, bypassing said plugin
[04:37] <ogra_> ah, cool ...
[04:44] <iwj> Today's my day for programming questions.  Maybe some pygtk expert can help me.  I have a program which is basically a subclass of SimpleGladeApp.  I want to be able to set it to be transient for some other application whose XID I know.
[04:44] <iwj> I can find the gtk.Window for the application and call set_transient_for, but gtk.Window.set_transient_for expects a gtk.Window.
[04:44] <iwj> I can make a gtk.gdk.Window out of an XID with gtk.gdk.window_foreign_new.
[04:45] <iwj> But I don't seem to be able to (1) find the gtk.gdk.Window inside a gtk.Window or (2) construct a gtk.Window which is just a wrapper around a gtk.gdk.Window.
[04:46] <jc-denton> hi all
[04:47] <jc-denton> hi all
[04:47] <jc-denton> i tried to compile 2.6.19 with the ubuntu .config
[04:47] <jc-denton> however it does not find the root fs
[04:48] <jc-denton> i thought first that i just have to compile the ide driver in the kernel instead of as module
[04:48] <pitti> jc-denton: you need a matching initramfs
[04:48] <jc-denton> i think so too
[04:48] <jc-denton> how can i do that
[04:48] <jc-denton> i never used initramfs
[04:48] <pitti> jc-denton: or additionally compile in the file systems you need
[04:48] <pitti> jc-denton: but that's really an #ubuntu question, btw
[04:49] <pitti> jc-denton: please look at update-initramfs(8) and followup in #ubuntu
[04:49] <jc-denton> ah the file systems are also as module
[04:49] <jc-denton> heh
[04:50] <jc-denton> thx
[04:50] <jc-denton> i just ask here
[04:50] <jc-denton> cos people on #ubuntu don't have a clue normally
[04:50] <jc-denton> ext2 and 3 is in the kernel
[04:52] <cjwatson> iwj: (1) there's a gtk.gdk.Window for each widget, so it's listed in the gtk.Widget docs
[04:52] <cjwatson> iwj: .window attribute on the widget (including the top-level gtk.Window if you like)
[04:57] <cjwatson> iwj: for (2), gtk.Plug may help, although I don't recall whether set_transient_for works properly with a Plug as the parent; try it and see :-)
[04:58] <cjwatson> but certainly Plug is the way to get at window IDs from other processes in terms of GTK widgets
[04:59] <cjwatson> but failing that, perhaps w.window.set_transient_for(gtk.gdk.Window) will DTRT well enoughh
[04:59] <iwj> gtk.Widget.window> Oh, yes, that's exactly what I want.
[04:59] <cjwatson> enough
[05:00] <iwj> I think it will, yes.
[05:00] <iwj> Plug is obviously not the right answer.  If I tell it to make the window transient for a Plug then it'll probably eat its own small intestine after crawling through the large intestine.
[05:01] <iwj> spammers--
[05:03] <cjwatson> giggle, although Plug is not entirely broken since ubiquity uses it
[05:04] <cjwatson> I have seen transience issues there, but it was the other way round - I was trying to make child windows of the Socket end up properly transient on the Plug
[05:09] <iwj> I had to call w.realize() but that hardly seems too bad.
[05:12] <mvo_> iwj: SoftwareProperties.py has a example for the tranisent stuff you need, but it seems you have figured it all out already :)
[05:12] <crimsun> ogra_: splitting the source is my recommended approach upon consultation with the UbuntuStudio and JACK devs (to avoid a feature regression)
[05:13] <Mithrandir> Riddell: that'd be weird
[05:14] <Riddell> Mithrandir: the alternate CD says no kernel modules found
[05:14] <MagiqueM> hi all
[05:14] <Mithrandir> Riddell: are you sure you're grabbing the latest ones?
[05:15] <MagiqueM> where can i find ubuntu kernel patches?
[05:15] <MagiqueM> i mean the patches that ubuntu ships with its kernel
[05:15] <kylem> MagiqueM, www.kernel.org/git/
[05:15] <MagiqueM> thanks a lot
[05:18] <MagiqueM> that page takes a lot to load :)
[05:18] <Riddell> Mithrandir: definately synced to daily/current and daily-live/current
[05:19] <Riddell> Mithrandir: casper-reconfigure still has "echo "$0: package '$package' is not installed" without the needed redirect
[05:19] <Riddell> Mithrandir: I don't see an upload of casper in feisty-changes
[05:20] <Mithrandir> nobody has asked for an upload of casper; I saw you needed a new ubiquity.
[05:20] <MagiqueM> kylem: it tells me "Generating......" but nothing happens
[05:21] <MagiqueM> nor www.kernel.org works :(
[05:21] <Riddell> Mithrandir: kubuntu (and xubuntu I guess) need cjwatson's latest change to casper, could you upload it?
[05:22] <Mithrandir> Riddell: which bug # is this?
[05:25] <Riddell> Mithrandir: it doesn't have a bug number as far as I know
[05:25] <kylem> MagiqueM, try www2.kernel.org/git
[05:25] <Mithrandir> Riddell: what's the bug, then?
[05:26] <Riddell> Mithrandir: if casper-reconfigure is called on a package that isn't installed it outputs an error message to debconf which gets confused, it needs redirected to stderr
[05:26] <Riddell> Mithrandir: it's a 1 line commit to casper by cjwatson
[05:29] <Mithrandir> hmm
[05:29] <Mithrandir> I wonder why we haven't seen that before.
[05:33] <iwj> mvo_: Thanks :-).
[05:34] <iwj> mvo: Would you care to take a look at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~ian/bzr/gnome-app-install--codecs/ ?  (Pushing as I write.)
[05:34] <jdub> ha ha --
[05:34] <iwj> I haven't given it a thorough test yet - in particular I worry that I might have regressed the MIME stuff and I haven't tested it.
[05:34] <Mithrandir> Riddell: I'm on my way out the door, I'll do it in a couple of hours.
[05:34] <iwj> But I thought that since I had something which at least doesn't bomb immediately with a syntax error I should pass it on.
[05:35] <iwj> Jesus H Christ!  80Mb!
[05:36] <mvo_> iwj: I'm happy to have a look, let me know when the push finished
[05:36] <iwj> I'm going to do some thing with rsync or something first.  An 80Mb upload with bzr push won't finish any time soon.
[05:37] <ogra_> crimsun, ok
[05:37] <mvo_> ok
[05:41] <cjwatson> Mithrandir: I mentioned it yesterday on IRC but you may have missed it
[05:41] <MagiqueM> i can't find ubuntu kernel patches...
[05:41] <cjwatson> Mithrandir: I think we have seen it before, but only intermittently
[05:41] <MagiqueM> where can i find them?
[05:41] <cjwatson> Mithrandir: I've certainly heard of similar issues before, but this was the first time I figured out the cause
[05:49] <MagiqueM> ???
[05:49] <MagiqueM> kylem i can't find ubuntu patches there
[05:50] <MagiqueM> :(
[06:00] <iwj> mvo_: That upload has finished.
[06:00] <mvo_> iwj: I'm bzr getting it now
[06:03] <Riddell> Mithrandir: powerpc also complains about no kernel modules.  my seeds and meta package are up to date
[06:03] <Riddell> Mithrandir: alternate CD that is
[06:05] <MagiqueM> does Ubuntu kernel have some cpu-related patches applied?
[06:13] <MagiqueM> none answering?
[06:14] <iwj> mvo_: I'm going to go and catch the train to climbing soon, so if you want to talk about my crazy g-a-i changes send me mail or catch me tomorrow.
[06:15] <mvo_> iwj: ok. have fun climbing!
[06:15] <mvo_> bzr is stll checking out
[06:16] <iwj> Heh.
[06:18] <iwj> mvo_: Thanks, and goodnight.
[06:33] <cjwatson> MagiqueM: you could always get the Ubuntu source package (apt-get source linux-source-2.6.17, or whatever version is appropriate) and diff it against the corresponding upstream kernel yourself
[06:33] <cjwatson> Riddell: argh, somebody forgot to update the installer seed ...
[06:34] <cjwatson> fabbione: you need to update the installer seed when you change the kernel version in debian-installer
[06:34] <cjwatson> note for the future
[06:34] <Riddell> cjwatson: at least it's not me going mad then
[06:35] <MagiqueM> cjwatson: but is simplier to have a diff file or a patch-set
[06:35] <Keybuk> aren't all the ubuntu changes under ubuntu/ now?
[06:35] <cjwatson> MagiqueM: for 2.6.17, http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux-source-2.6.17/linux-source-2.6.17_2.6.17-10.33.diff.gz
[06:36] <cjwatson> it's not packaged that way for all kernel versions (for some of them it's just a .tar.gz)
[06:36] <cjwatson> Keybuk: only new drivers
[06:36] <MagiqueM> thanks a lot
[06:36] <Keybuk> alternatively just use git?
[06:37] <fabbione> cjwatson: i see .. ok.. they were not updated since .19-7 and we did have a .20-X installer..
[06:37] <cjwatson> fabbione: which you uploaded :)
[06:37] <fabbione> hem.. no
[06:37] <fabbione> debian-installer (20061102ubuntu7) feisty; urgency=low
[06:37] <fabbione>   * Move to 2.6.20-2 kernels.
[06:37] <fabbione>   * Add block-modules and message-modules to hd-media images.
[06:37] <fabbione>  -- Colin Watson <cjwatson@ubuntu.com>  Mon, 18 Dec 2006 17:02:03 +0000
[06:37] <fabbione> so i did grep for -20-2 and there was no match
[06:37] <fabbione> anyway
[06:37] <fabbione> noted :)
[06:38] <cjwatson> ah, true, I missed it that time
[06:38] <cjwatson> you uploaded the switch to 20-5, though. :)
[06:38] <cjwatson> anyway, done now
[06:38] <cjwatson> Riddell: please merge?
[06:38] <Riddell> cjwatson: doing
[06:38] <cjwatson> ogra_: ^--
[06:38] <cjwatson> I'll do Xubuntu I gues
[06:38] <cjwatson> s
[06:38] <gpocentek> cjwatson: will do
[06:38] <gpocentek> (xubuntu)
[06:38] <cjwatson> gpocentek: ah, thank you
[06:38] <cjwatson> I forgot you'd changed nick
[06:39] <MagiqueM> cjwatson: does diff.gz it contain the applied patch list?
[06:39] <cjwatson> MagiqueM: well, I don't know where else it'd go. but please don't ask such questions here; this is a developer coordination channel
[06:39] <cjwatson> people asking questions here are expected to be developers and to have done extensive research themselves already
[06:40] <MagiqueM> i googled a lot before aking here
[06:40] <Riddell> MagiqueM: #ubuntu-motu for packaging questions
[06:40] <MagiqueM> *asking
[06:40] <cjwatson> MagiqueM: research> e.g. reading and understanding the structure of the .diff.gz
[06:40] <MagiqueM> ok i'll try
[06:40] <MagiqueM> thanks
[06:41] <cjwatson> I'm sorry, but we need to keep this channel reasonably clear
[06:41] <MagiqueM> i understand
[06:45] <Riddell> cjwatson: merged
[06:47] <cjwatson> thanks
[06:48] <gpocentek> cjwatson: xubuntu merged too
[06:49] <cjwatson> thanks; I'll do Edubuntu for expediency's sake
[06:50] <cjwatson> ogra_: cancel the above ping; I've merged the Edubuntu seeds
[07:00] <mvo_> can someone of archive-admins please reject my app-install-data-commercial upload to edgy-proposed? there is a minor bit missing
[07:01] <mvo_> nevermind
[07:01] <cjwatson> mvo_: it got auto-rejected anyway because you uploaded source+binary
[07:01] <mvo_> yes, just got the mail 
[07:04] <Riddell> cjwatson: can I respin kubuntu alternate CDs?
[07:07] <cjwatson> Riddell: yes, the HTTP mirror on bazaar.launchpad.net has updated so it's safe
[07:17] <Riddell> cjwatson: done kubuntu, should I do u, ed and xubuntu too?
[07:23] <ubuntu-l1nux> Hey all
[07:23] <ubuntu-l1nux> I have a problem
[07:24] <ubuntu-l1nux> Anyone can help me?
[07:24] <azeem> ubuntu-l1nux: please ask in #ubuntu
[07:24] <jdong> heno: that looks beautiful
[07:25] <ubuntu-l1nux> Hmm, it is a kernel problem. Is there any kernel room here?
[07:25] <jdong> heno: I actually would not advise opening that thread up for any commenting; in about 2 days you'll have 20 pages
[07:25] <jdong> ubuntu-l1nux: if there was a ubuntu kernel channel, what would you name it?
[07:26] <heno> jdong: hm, ok so a separate questions thread then
[07:26] <ubuntu-l1nux> jdong: ubuntu-ker?
[07:26] <jdong> heno: right. Keep the directions clean and clear
[07:28] <cjwatson> Riddell: sure, please do

[07:52] <gpocentek> Riddell: thanks
[07:58] <Riddell> ogra_: edubuntu done
[07:59] <ogra_> thanks !
[08:34] <Mithrandir> cjwatson: hm.  Do you think we need new ubuntu livefs-es too, then?
[08:34] <Keybuk> someone name me an editor that breaks hardlinks, or has an option to turn it on
[08:34] <Mithrandir> Keybuk: doesn't emacs?
[08:34] <Keybuk> not by default, afaict
[08:35] <Keybuk> I get IN_CREATE(.#wibble) ... IN_MODIFY(wibble) ... IN_DELETE (.#wibble)
[08:35] <elmo> Keybuk: vi is traditionally the one that does
[08:35] <maxb> I just tried vim. It did not.
[08:37] <elmo> hang on, what?
[08:37] <elmo> emacs does break hardlinks
[08:38] <elmo> at least here
[08:39] <Keybuk> isn't here

[08:40] <Keybuk> weird
[08:41] <elmo> mjg59: yeah, do you have a macbook pro?
[08:41] <mjg59> Nope
[08:41] <mjg59> No Apple portables
[08:41] <elmo> duh
[08:41] <mjg59> I've got an iMac that's supposed to be going to Colin when he has time to look at it
[08:42] <maxb> Keybuk: vim's behaviour can be controlled with the backupcopy option.
[08:43] <Keybuk> maxb: changing it made no difference
[08:43] <Keybuk> it still didn't break the hardlink
[08:44] <maxb> The docs say it should, and it did for me. What exactly did you do?
[08:46] <Keybuk> ln /tmp/foo/wibble /tmp/foo/wobble

[08:52] <gpocentek> yay, xubuntu daily iso is OK (amd64) :)
[08:53] <cjwatson> Mithrandir: the installer seed doesn't affect livefses
[08:54] <cjwatson> mjg59: re the imac, it's blocked until I get my car repaired; sorry for forgetting to tell you
[08:54] <cjwatson> mjg59: with any luck that'll be worted out tomorrow
[08:54] <cjwatson> er, sorted
[08:54] <mjg59> cjwatson: Yeah, no problem
[08:54] <mjg59> cjwatson: I'm leaving the country on Friday, back a week on Monday
[08:54] <mjg59> Ought to be around Friday afternoon until 4 or so
[08:54] <cjwatson> ok, I'll make sure to pick it up before then
[08:54] <cjwatson> is it carryable, in extremis?
[08:55] <cjwatson> I really don't actually *want* to lug a computer around Cambridge on foot, but if I have to ...
[08:55] <Mithrandir> cjwatson: no, but the casper package does.
[08:55] <cjwatson> Mithrandir: oh, in that case yes
[08:56] <mjg59> cjwatson: In extremis, but I wouldn't recommend it
[08:57] <Mithrandir> cjwatson: in extremis, take a cab?
[08:59] <cjwatson> good plan
[09:01] <Mithrandir> casper source publishing run going.
[09:01] <Mithrandir> then I'll kick the queueu builder, then wait for it to build, then new livefs-es, then new live isos.
[09:03] <Keybuk> mjg59: what flight you on?
[09:03] <Amaranth> Keybuk: that trick in your blog is evil
[09:04] <Keybuk> Amaranth: gotta go with what works <g>
[09:04] <Amaranth> heh
[09:04] <Amaranth> i'll probably end up using it
[09:04] <Amaranth> but wow
[09:11] <mjg59> Keybuk: Singapore Airlines
[09:11] <mjg59> Whichever one arrives at 07:15 on Sunday
[09:12] <Keybuk> heh, that's 25 mins after my flight leaves
[09:12] <mjg59> Leaves?
[09:13] <Keybuk> I'm on a QF flight, that's probably a BA code share, but doesn't admit to being so
[09:13] <Keybuk> for Sydney
[09:13] <mjg59> Ah
[09:13] <mjg59> So you'll be there Tuesday?
[09:13] <mjg59> Or late Monday?
[09:13] <Keybuk> hmm, sorry, misread you
[09:13] <Keybuk> mine leaves Heathrow 0650 on Friday
[09:13] <Keybuk> and arrives 1930 on Saturday (AU time)
[09:13] <mjg59> Ah, right
[09:13] <Keybuk> you have a long stop-over?
[09:14] <mjg59> Couple of hours
[09:14] <Keybuk> how come you arrive at an odd time?
[09:14] <mjg59> Leaving about 12 hours after you
[09:14] <Keybuk> oh, I see
[09:14] <Keybuk> duh
[09:14] <Keybuk> my brain is not in gear, clearly
[09:14] <mjg59> Worked out that if I stay awake until we hit Sinagpore and then sleep, I'll be on .au time
[09:14] <mjg59> Which is, coincidentally, roughly where I am anyway
[09:14] <mjg59> So it's all good
[09:36] <LaserJock> is Universe also frozen for Herd 2?
[09:37] <dsas> LaserJock: No, just requires manual poking.
[09:37] <siretart> LaserJock: according to the announcement to u-d-a, no
[09:37] <siretart> upload of ubiquity to edgy? is there a release of 6.10.1 planned?
[09:45] <LaserJock> gnomefreak: no, I think any release can have them if it's needed
[09:46] <Mithrandir> casper binary publishing run running
[10:07] <sacater_> hi all, just re-installed ubuntu (dont ask why :P), but i want to disable grub, how do i do it?
[10:08] <Treenaks> sacater_: a) you don't want to disable grub; b) this is a development channel, please ask on #ubuntu
[10:08] <sacater_> okies
[10:08] <sacater_> ty
[10:08] <sacater_> :P
[10:11] <lifeless> moining
[10:39] <BenC> can I get an archive person to process linux-backports-modules-2.6.20 through NEW please?
[10:43] <Mithrandir> BenC: is it urgent?
[10:44] <BenC> Mithrandir: Oh, right, we are in freeze for Herd 2, it can wait
[10:44] <Mithrandir> thanks. :-)
[10:44] <BenC> Mithrandir: are we in a state where we can do uploads and it wont bother you, or is that functionality not working yet?
[10:45] <Mithrandir> BenC: they end up in a queue where I can ignore them, so as long as you don't upload a zizzillion packages, I don't care.
[10:45] <Mithrandir> and anything to universe is just shoved through when I see it
[10:45] <BenC> Mithrandir: ok
[10:45] <somerville32> Mithrandir: Oh, can you approve pyNeighborhood then? :)
[10:47] <Mithrandir> somerville32: no, it's not in unapproved, it's in new and since I'm busy and NEW takes time (and it's 22:47 here now), I'm not going to do it until herd 2 is out.
[10:48] <somerville32> Mithrandir, alright then :)
[10:55] <somerville32> If anyone is interested in helping to write the Heard 2 Announcement, we're on Gobby.
[10:56] <mdke> somerville32: make sure you spell it "Herd"
[10:56] <mdke> :)
[10:56] <somerville32> :D
[10:56] <somerville32> I have <g>
[10:57] <Treenaks> hearth?
[10:59] <LaserJock> somerville32: and not Hurd
[11:00] <somerville32> :P
[11:00] <lifeless> hUrd is the new fisty
[11:04] <somerville32> Does the sister projects usually write their own?
[11:06] <LaserJock> yeah
[11:06] <LaserJock> I think so
[11:22] <bddebian> Someone say Hurd? :-)
[11:23] <mc44> Hurd II: Die Hurder
[11:23] <LaserJock> :-)
[11:23] <LaserJock> mc44: or is that "Revenge of the Hurd"?
[11:24] <mc44> :)
[11:24] <ajmitch> Ubuntu 2050
[11:25] <LaserJock> man, Debian will need Toy Story 5 to come out or something
[11:25] <LaserJock> to get enough release names, either that or they'll have to slow down that mad pace of a release cycle
[11:26] <ajmitch> I'm sure they can dig up names
[11:26] <cjwatson> siretart: bug 67130 is worth a point release to fix, I think
[11:26] <Ubugtu> Malone bug 67130 in ubiquity "mount points preparation locked - "No root file system"" [Critical,Fix committed]  https://launchpad.net/bugs/67130
[11:26] <LaserJock> Debian 10.3 "3rd Sheep"
[11:27] <cjwatson> gnomefreak: we first did a point release for 6.06, it's true, but we had contemplated one for 5.10 - it just turned out not to be worth the effort, whereas for 6.06 it was
[11:32] <ogra> Mithrandir, still around ? edubuntu doesnt look good, seems i merged a patch from debian that breaks the mirror handling for non-networked installs ... i'll prepare a fixed ltsp now
[11:33] <ogra> :(((
[11:34] <msikma> Hi everybody. I don't think that #ubuntu can do anything about this, but maybe you can: the download toold Ubuntu 4.04 release seems to lead to a 403 error.
[11:34] <msikma> http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/warty/warty-release-install-i386.iso This one, that is.
[11:35] <cjwatson> msikma: one moment
[11:35] <elmo> cjwatson: heh, no .pool ;-)
[11:36] <cjwatson> there is on lithium
[11:37] <elmo> ah, ok, sorry, our bad, one sec
[11:38] <msikma> If it could be fixed at some point, that would be great! The torrent link also seems to be inoperable. I realize 4.04 is officially obsolete, but I'm going to use it on an old computer on which it used to run faster than 6.06.
[11:39] <elmo> torrent won't work, I'm fixing http/ftp/rsync
[11:40] <mdke> elmo: quick question about torrents. Does it make a difference from which mirror a user downloads a torrent from (I know nothing about em, but need to know to fix a website issue)
[11:41] <elmo> mdke: no
[11:41] <mdke> great
[11:41] <mdke> elmo: thanks. were you able to view that md5sum bug, btw?
[11:41] <elmo> yeah, I'll try and reply in a bit
[11:41] <mdke> elmo: great, I wait with baited breath. thanks again
[11:42] <HrdwrBoB> bated
[11:43] <ogra> cjwatson, can you approve an upload of ltsp for me so i get the package fixed for tomorrow morning ? 
[11:43] <elmo> cjwatson: eh, dapper's in the old-releases tree?
[11:43] <cjwatson> elmo: .0, yes
[11:43] <cjwatson> elmo: .1 is on releases.u.c
[11:44] <mdke> HrdwrBoB: my breath is baited, dammit
[11:44] <elmo> cjwatson: duh, sorry
[11:44] <cjwatson> is a touch confusing
[11:44] <cjwatson> ogra: if it's in the queue right now
[11:44] <cjwatson> 'cos I've been up at 0630 last two days and need my ugly sleep
[11:45] <ogra> cjwatson, uploaded 1min ago ... 
[11:45] <msikma> Just wondering, does anyone know of any other location from where I can get 4.04? I can't seem to find too much on Google except for reviews.
[11:45] <ogra> its only commenting out three lines ...
[11:46] <msikma> Oh wait, it isn't 4.04, it's 4.10.
[11:47] <elmo> 4.04 would be impressive, Canonical didn't even exist then ;-)
[11:47] <msikma> Stupid me.
[11:47] <elmo> msikma: anyway, it's syncing now, try again in 30 mins or so and it should be there
[11:47] <cjwatson> well, not named Canonical, anyway ...
[11:47] <cjwatson> elmo: thanks
[11:48] <msikma> elmo: thanks very much. :)
[11:48] <cjwatson> ogra: can you explain the fix to me?
[11:48] <cjwatson> ogra: for example why 'add_mirror "$MIRROR"' isn't commented out but the lines around it are?
[11:49] <ogra> cjwatson, vagrant wrote a unctionn that adds additional mirrors to the clients sources.list ... apparently i only get empty lines on a non networked system  ... i commented the call of the function that does it for now
[11:49] <ogra> 'add_mirror "$MIRROR"' adds the default mirror ... which is the CD in our case
[11:50] <ogra> that needs fixing post herd2 indeed ... but for now this workaround is enough (gets us back to the former variant of the mirror plugin as we had it in edgy)
[11:52] <cjwatson> ogra: well, no, it doesn't, as manage-mirror didn't change from edgy to feisty
[11:53] <ogra> hmm
[11:53] <cjwatson> ogra: is it to do with the ltsp-client-builder/build-client-opts stuff?
[11:53] <msikma> Seems that the ISO is there.
[11:53] <ogra> let me see ... thats a new one ...
[11:54] <cjwatson> ogra: this shouldn't block Herd 2 if you've tested this workaround, but I thought it was worth mentioning now anyway
[11:54] <cjwatson> ogra: (have you tested this workaround?)
[11:54] <ogra> yes, several times
[11:55] <ogra> its the add_multiple_mirrors call that breaks it ... 
[11:55] <cjwatson> ok, I've accepted it, but please make sure there's a bug filed with milestone 'later' or '7.04' or similar strength
[11:55] <ogra> i was always for just copying the sources.list from the server during CD installs ... but debian freaked out about it ...
[11:55] <cjwatson> to get it fixed properly
[11:56] <ogra> i hate the debian "optionitis" some days ...
[11:56] <ogra> cjwatson, will do
[11:56] <cjwatson> I'm not familiar with the issues, and it would take some thought, so I don't want to comment on that
[11:58] <cjwatson> ogra: I'm going to bed now, so you'll probably have to wait until the morning if anything else needs archive admin attention, unless Tollef drops by; you should have the access you need to rebuild Edubuntu CD images
[11:58] <ogra> right :)
[11:58] <ogra> thanks for the help :)
[11:58] <cjwatson> should be ready around 0030 UTC
