[12:24] <elmo> mdke: unfortunately
=== mdke nods
[12:24] <mdke> elmo: I can restrict that wiki page, if you give me the wikiname of the relevant user you think should have access
[12:25] <ogra> elmo, btw, seems all my mails to edubuntu-devel are swallowed ... 
[12:25] <elmo> eh, you can?
[12:25] <elmo> ogra: yes, I know
[12:25] <mdke> elmo: yes
[12:25] <elmo> ogra: mail RT - I'll hack on mailman in the morning

[12:25] <mdke> or rather, I think I can.
[12:25] <ogra> elmo, so its not a misconfiguration or something ? 
[12:26] <mdke> elmo: I seem to recall myself and henrik being hardcoded as admins on that wiki
[12:26] <elmo> ogra: no - the mails are being swallowed and there's no useful reason given
[12:26] <elmo> mdke: ah, yeah, looks like someone is
[12:26] <ogra> RichEd maintained the MLs for the last few months ... he might have changed a setting 
[12:26] <elmo> mdke: I didn't realise ACLs were enabled
[12:26] <Riddell> Mithrandir: all three kubuntu alternate CDs are good
[12:26] <ogra> ok, i'll file an RT
[12:27] <elmo> mdke: anyway - |I don't know who should have access, that's why I was asking you ;-)
[12:27] <mdke> elmo: oh. I thought it would be a sysadmin
[12:28] <elmo> mdke: well, see the problem is moin ACLs are about as useful as a burred screw driver
[12:28] <Laser_away> lol
[12:28] <elmo> mdke: if you already have admin powers, then it might as well be you
[12:28] <elmo> because admin powers are binary in moin
[12:28] <elmo> you either have them for the whole site, or you don't
[12:29] <elmo> short of chattr +i-ing the file on disk, I can't stop you editing the page, IYSWIM
[12:29] <mdke> elmo: beneath that it can be page by page though, right?
[12:29] <elmo> mdke: no, it can't
[12:29] <elmo> mdke: anyone with 'admin' privs can change the perms on a page
[12:29] <mdke> yes, that's right

[01:19] <Keybuk> he did indeed approve it
[01:19] <ogra> strange ...
[01:19] <Keybuk> why?
[01:19] <Keybuk> publisher is on manual
[01:19] <ogra> https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ltsp doesnt show it anywhere
[01:19] <Keybuk> it won't actually get processed until Mithrandir runs it
[01:19] <ogra> oh
[01:19] <Keybuk> standard procedure during releases
[01:20] <ogra> can you do it ? so i can trigger my CDs tongiht or is that an exclusive Mithrandir thing ? 
[01:21] <Keybuk> no, Mithrandir holds a lock on the publisher
[01:21] <Keybuk> if he's not here to check, I won't run it in case he's deliberately got it on manual
[01:21] <Keybuk> and if here's here, he can run it :)
[01:22] <ogra> well ...
[01:22] <ogra> Mithrandir, ping, please trigger a build of ltsp, needed for new edubuntu install isos
[01:23] <ogra> Mithrandir, ltsp 0.130, sorry

[04:54] <jdong> is there any way to coerce/bootstrap ubiquity into unpacking into a filesystem that I already mounted?
[04:54] <jdong> just for fun I'm gonna attempt a Ubuntu install into ntfs-3g
[04:54] <jdong> because I managed to get a minimalist embedded linux setup working out of NTFS
[04:56] <mjg59> It's possible
[04:56] <mjg59> Just miserable
[04:56] <mjg59> Oh, i see what you mean
[04:56] <mjg59> jdong: best wait for Colin to wake up

[05:09] <jdong> mjg59: yeah, it's too late for me, too... worst comes to worst I'll just manually install it
[05:10] <jdong> next question... how do I modify the initramfs script that finds/mounts the root?
[05:10] <jdong> where is that script located and what is the safest way to edit it

=== KaiL_ [n=KaiL@p548F5F38.dip.t-dialin.net]  has joined #ubuntu-devel
[05:34] <keescook> jdong: would a direct debootstrap work for that?
[05:35] <lifeless> jdong: /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/
[05:35] <lifeless> jdong: thats where the initramfs is built from 
[05:35] <jdong> keescook: yeah but then I don't get the fully configured base system :)
[05:36] <jdong> unless there's another way to activate the hostname and such 
[05:36] <jdong> heck I'll just rsync an existing installation
[05:36] <keescook> jdong: really?  I mean, I guess I haven't tried it too much, but installing ubuntu-desktop always seemed to work.  :)
[05:36] <jdong> is rsyncing / on the livecd and removing casper equivalent to ubiquity? :D
[05:36] <jdong> lifeless: thanks
[05:36] <keescook> heh, dunno.  :)
[05:36] <lifeless> jdong: no
[05:37] <lifeless> (the rsyncing / question)
[05:37] <lifeless> jdong: on the livecd, / is not the cd root
[05:37] <lifeless> jdong: its a unionfs of the squashfs from the cd rom
[05:38] <jdong> right, but for all intents it's a bootable ubuntu environment, right?
[05:38] <lifeless> jdong: errr
[05:38] <lifeless> jdong: FSVO 
=== jdong pulls up slang dictionary and feels more culturally depressed
[05:38] <lifeless> jdong: check /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/casper to see whats involved in mounting / on it
[05:39] <jdong> ok
[05:39] <jdong> then I shall just untar one of my root backups onto an ntfs drive :D
[05:41] <jdong> one more crackpot question....
=== j_ack [n=rudi@p508DAA7D.dip0.t-ipconnect.de]  has joined #ubuntu-devel
[05:42] <jdong> is it technically feasible to have initramfs pivot_root into a subdirectory of a filesystem, if I don't feel like partitioning to dual boot?
[05:42] <lifeless> jdong: probably via bind mounting
[05:42] <jdong> i.e. install feisty into /feisty, then modify initramfs to treat /mnt/feisty as /
[05:42] <jdong> yeah, bind-mount home and the typical virtual fs'es
[05:42] <jdong> but it looks good in my head :D
[05:43] <jdong> something keeps on saying in the back of my head that it's a stupid idea though
[05:43] <lifeless> why are you doing this ?
[05:43] <jdong> lifeless: I'm working on a bold and reckless idea of installing linux to a pre-existing NTFS drive via ntfs-3g
[05:44] <jdong> like install ubuntu to c:\Linux and use LILO to boot off it
[05:44] <jdong> that cuts out the "I don't ubuntu because I don't wanna partition" excuse
[05:44] <lifeless> scarwee
[05:44] <jdong> lol yes
[05:44] <jdong> does the initramfs environment have an awk or something like that?
[05:45] <jdong> I wanna modify root=/dev/foo syntax to support root=/dev/foo:/Linux
[05:45] <jdong> an arbitrarily specified subdirectory
[05:45] <jdong> maybe I should use a separate rootsubdir=/Linux option instead...
=== nags [n=nags@125.16.129.16]  has joined #ubuntu-devel
[05:48] <jdong> the scariest part is ntfs-3g doesn't have any permissions support.... other than mounting the entire drive with a uid/gid/umask
[05:48] <jdong> that'll likely ruin the practicality of this and just make it a digg story :D

[08:18] <pitti> Good morning
[08:18] <Hobbsee> heya pitti 
[08:19] <fabbione> pitti: do you have any clue on what's generating this error: end from FAM server connection
[08:19] <fabbione>  ?
[08:19] <fabbione> i can see it on some apps like gthumb or gtkam
[08:20] <fabbione> when i save stuff in ~/Desktop they don't appear anymore
[08:20] <pitti> fabbione: uh, fam? that's so prehistoric
[08:20] <fabbione> or remove and they don't disappear
[08:20] <fabbione> pitti: yeah but i have ubuntu-desktop installed
[08:20] <pitti> fabbione: never saw it, and gnome doesn't use either fam or gamin any more
=== joejaxx [i=jadaz87@poprock.dreamhost.com]  has joined #ubuntu-devel
[08:20] <fabbione> and i am 100% sure i didn't play with anything there
=== fabbione wonders wth
[08:20] <pitti> fabbione: hm, no idea; I assume it is not a translatable string we could grep for
[08:21] <fabbione> Binary file libfam.so.0 matches
[08:21] <fabbione> Binary file libfam.so.0.0.0 matches
[08:21] <fabbione> Binary file libgamin-1.so.0 matches
[08:21] <fabbione> Binary file libgamin-1.so.0.1.8 matches
[08:21] <fabbione> well something is still using it
[08:21] <fabbione> let's figure
[08:22] <pitti> fabbione: where did you see that, .xsession-errors?
[08:22] <fabbione> xterm
=== pitti greps /usr/bin
[08:23] <fabbione> pitti: there is tons of stuff that still depends on libgamin0
[08:23] <fabbione> directly/indirectly
[08:23] <fabbione> After unpacking 240MB disk space will be freed.
[08:23] <fabbione> Do you want to continue [Y/n] ? 
[08:24] <fabbione>  |libgnomevfs2-0
[08:24] <fabbione>   libgamin-dev
[08:24] <fabbione>   gamin
[08:24] <Hobbsee> fabbione: yes, not all of the kde stuff ever got rebuilt
[08:24] <fabbione> these 2 looks
[08:24] <fabbione> Hobbsee: rebuilt with what? i didn't follow the transition
[08:24] <fabbione> if there was any
[08:24] <Hobbsee> fabbione: rebuilt to lose the dep on libgamin0
[08:25] <fabbione> ok
[08:26] <Amaranth> i once rebuilt my desktop to not need libgamin0
[08:26] <Amaranth> it's like 3 packages
[08:26] <Amaranth> apparently less now, just gnomevfs

[08:27] <Amaranth> there is a problem with removing gamin
[08:28] <Amaranth> right now all the polling happens in the gam_server
[08:28] <Amaranth> when you use gnomevfs to do it each app does it on their own
[08:28] <pitti> Mithrandir: uh, do we really use https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Current/Ubuntu? that looks so empty
[08:28] <Hobbsee> pitti: i believe we're migrating there/
[08:28] <Hobbsee> ?
[08:29] <pitti> I meant, using the pages for herd-2 testing
[08:32] <Mithrandir> pitti: that's the idea, yes.
=== pitti is surprised that there were so few results yesterday
[08:33] <Mithrandir> but I need to build a new desktop before it's meaningful to test it.
[08:33] <pitti> Mithrandir: I got network back and stuff is rsyncing; as usual I grab powerpc and some amd64?
[08:33] <fabbione> Mithrandir: can we get the new partman-base in?
[08:33] <pitti> oh, good warning; alternates are ok?
[08:33] <Mithrandir> pitti: I think so, I haven't had the time to test any yet.
[08:34] <Mithrandir> fabbione: I'm looking at it now.
[08:34] <fabbione> Mithrandir: ok thanks.
[08:34] <pitti> Mithrandir: ok, I start with alternate
[08:34] <fabbione> Mithrandir: if we can't .. ok.. i will just netinstall as soon as you unleash it
[08:34] <fabbione> but it's not in initrd
[08:34] <fabbione> so we don't need new d-i
[08:34] <fabbione> just cd rebuild
[08:35] <Mithrandir> fabbione: and it seems like sparc is the only one bitten (though I think the code's buggy on all arches)
[08:36] <Mithrandir> so I'll just rebuild sparc.
[08:36] <fabbione> Mithrandir: if that's possible it would be wonderful
[08:36] <Mithrandir> everything's possible.  Impossible stuff just takes a little bit more time.
[08:36] <fabbione> acutally only Niagara is bitten but the code is randomically buggy
[08:36] <fabbione> or better

[08:36] <fabbione> Niagara was the first to show the bug

[08:37] <fabbione> if you want i also have the kernel patch to debug that stuff :P
[08:37] <Mithrandir> heh.
[08:37] <Mithrandir> anyway, publisher running.
[08:37] <fabbione> danke
[08:37] <Mithrandir> that should give ogra his ltsp fix too.

[08:40] <pitti> carlos: ah, thanks
=== pitti still gets an autodetected Japanese layout
[08:47] <pitti> Mithrandir: what's the correct source package for d-i keyboard selection? cdebconf-keystep?
[08:48] <Mithrandir> probably console-setup
[08:48] <Mithrandir> depending on what the bug is
[08:49] <pitti> Mithrandir: the keyboard autodetection in d-i gives me Japanese if I press keys for U.S.

[09:20] <dholbach> Mithrandir: how's it going? how's your dog?
[09:20] <Amaranth> dholbach: it is if you've got the new gnome-menus
[09:20] <dholbach> Amaranth: we don't have them yet
[09:21] <Amaranth> alright, so we still have a settings.menu file
[09:21] <dholbach> yes
[09:21] <Amaranth> that was my worst release ever
[09:21] <Mithrandir> dholbach: he's fun.  He keeps doing minor mischief, but he's absolutely lovely.
[09:21] <dholbach> come on... we all survived :)
[09:22] <Mithrandir> dholbach: I'm sure you can see him in Oslo
[09:22] <dholbach> Mithrandir: sounds like you trained him quite well already - my dog was a pain at that age :)
[09:22] <Mithrandir> dholbach: Karianne's a good handler.
[09:22] <Mithrandir> ok, -desktop/-live images up for all arches.
[09:22] <Mithrandir> and distros
[09:23] <dholbach> oh... so you're not the dog's handler? :)

=== dholbach knows the feeling well
[09:24] <dholbach> ;-)
[09:24] <Mithrandir> dholbach: today he didn't even wake us with scratching on the door.  He's tended to do so before (we just stopped having him in the cage during the night)
[09:25] <dholbach> woohoo
[09:25] <Mithrandir> and I've certainly been taking him out in the mornings, but he's still Karianne's dog.

[10:15] <pitti> Mithrandir: do you tell us when new live ISOs are ready?
[10:16] <Mithrandir> 09:22 < Mithrandir> ok, -desktop/-live images up for all arches.
[10:16] <Mithrandir> I haven't updated the wiki yet, going to now
[10:16] <Mithrandir> fabbione: sparc ubuntu-server building
[10:16] <pitti> Mithrandir: oops, lost that in the dog conversation; thanks
[10:17] <fabbione> Mithrandir: thanks
[10:19] <Mithrandir> Riddell: your -desktop images are ready.
[10:20] <Mithrandir> fabbione: and done.
[10:22] <somerville32> Are the Xubuntu images ready?
[10:23] <Mithrandir> xubuntu live images are ready, yes.
[10:23] <dholbach> Mithrandir: the icon-naming-utils and human-icon-theme uploads are not urgent either
[10:24] <Mithrandir> I think the alternates are good too, but a test of them would be nice.
[10:24] <Mithrandir> somerville32: ^^ that was to you
[10:25] <Mithrandir> dholbach: what about libgnome and evince?
[10:25] <somerville32> Mithrandir, thanks :] 
[10:25] <fabbione> Mithrandir: and thanks :)
[10:25] <dholbach> Mithrandir: libgnome neither - for evince you'd need to ask evince - i didn't read the NEWS file
[10:25] <dholbach> Mithrandir: ask seb128 of course
[10:26] <Mithrandir> dholbach: ok.  Since he hasn't prodded me, I blissfully assume they're not needed.  I'd really like to avoid a rebuild now.
[10:26] <seb128> Mithrandir: nothing is urgent, they are GNOME 2.17.5 late tarball and "nice to have", having them after herd is fine though
[10:27] <seb128> I assumed that you would prefer do no change at this point
[10:27] <seb128> that's why I didn't ask :)
[10:27] <pitti> Mithrandir: btw, http://people.ubuntu.com/~tfheen/unapproved-queue/feisty/ doesn't seem to work

[10:29] <Mithrandir> pitti: should be fixed in about 30 seconds when my crontab runs.
[10:30] <Mithrandir> (I shuffled my dotfiles on rookery around, something which meant that ~/dotfiles/ssh got g+w which makes ssh exceedingly unhappy)
[10:30] <Mithrandir> pitti: there.
[10:30] <pitti> Mithrandir: rock
[10:30] <Mithrandir> thanks for noticing.
[10:31] <somerville32> http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/feisty/ doesn't seem to exist. Where are the Xubuntu herds being placed?
[10:32] <Mithrandir> somerville32: in that directory.  IIRC, nobody cared to test the xubuntu herd 1 images
[10:33] <somerville32> There were individuals - I remember them actually doing it in x-devel
[10:33] <somerville32> They must have have just used a daily build
[10:34] <somerville32> Mithrandir: Will we be getting it for this herd?
[10:37] <Mithrandir> somerville32: if somebody tests it and tells me that it works, yes.

[10:40] <ogra> well, i suddenly have the -generic kernel on my i386 install iso ... that doesnt work
[10:41] <Mithrandir> ogra: that's a terrible error description.
[10:41] <ogra> whn i discussed it with colin a while back he told me for i386 alternate that wouldnt change

[10:41] <Mithrandir> somerville32: and if stuff's broken, we fix and respin

[10:45] <Mithrandir> hmm
[10:45] <Mithrandir> that checkout must be ancient
=== Mithrandir updates
[10:45] <ogra> where are ou looking at ? 
[10:45] <ogra> *you
[10:45] <ogra> my i386 iso includes 2.6.20 here
=== ogra checks again ...
[10:46] <Mithrandir> you're using 2.6.20-5-generic in your installer seed.
[10:46] <Mithrandir> is that what you want?
[10:46] <Mithrandir> hmm, that's probably just the udebs
[10:46] <ogra> well, i#d love to but i dont have the space for two kernels 
[10:46] <ogra> so i fear the server has to run -386 as well ...
[10:48] <ogra> read: no, thats not what i want under the current circumstances ....
[10:49] <Mithrandir> that'd require another d-i, I think.
[10:50] <Mithrandir> or another d-i flavour.
[10:50] <cjwatson> jdong: ubiquity on existing filesystem> you'd have to hack /usr/lib/ubiquity/ubiquity/validation.py to remove the relevant check
[10:51] <cjwatson> jdong: actually, not sure if that'd work if it was already mounted; it might still hate you without further hacking
[10:51] <pitti> ogra: out of curiosity, why are all other kernels named -generic, and the ltsp one i386?
[10:51] <Mithrandir> pitti: because ltsp needs to run on hardware from the last ice age, so -generic won't work.
[10:51] <ogra> pitti, the i386 one has 486 compatibility (at least it used to have that)
[10:52] <pitti> oh, ouch
=== somerville32 swears at Freenode for not allowing him to join more then 20 channels at a time.
[10:52] <ogra> AMD Geode CPUs are *not* from the last iceage ! ;)
[10:52] <ogra> neither are most of these VIA thingies :)
[10:52] <cjwatson> pitti: it's on keymapper
=== pitti is this --><-- close to finish amd64 alternate testing and got a good deal into ppc/alternate testing -- so do we need new alternates?
[10:53] <pitti> cjwatson: thanks, will check bug there
[10:53] <Mithrandir> ogra: well, close enough. :-)
[10:53] <Mithrandir> pitti: I'd hope not, no.
[10:54] <ogra> cjwatson, will a seed change suffice or does that need a d-i hack as well ? 
[10:54] <cjwatson> ogra: I mailed ubuntu-devel announcing the switch to -generic; I suggest you catch up on that
[10:55] <cjwatson> ogra: are you *sure* the -generic kernel doesn't work on your hardware?
[10:55] <ogra> cjwatson, we dicussed that after your mail, remember ? 
[10:55] <ogra> no, i'm not
[10:55] <cjwatson> why not try?
[10:56] <ogra> well, i can ... 
[10:56] <cjwatson> we do have a d-i flavour that does 386, but only for netboot at present
[10:56] <ogra> BenC, already up ? 
[10:56] <cjwatson> it seems unlikely at this time
[10:56] <ogra> cjwatson, i'd ike to hear soething from a kernel guy about that 
[10:56] <cjwatson> I think it will be considerably quicker for you to try it yourself than to wait for Ben to wake up
[10:57] <cjwatson> ogra: a seed change will not suffice; it would need extensive changes
[10:57] <cjwatson> both d-i and debian-cd
[10:58] <cjwatson> so I'd much prefer that if possible -generic be made to work
[10:58] <ogra> the 386 kernel sets CONFIG_M486=y
[10:58] <ogra> the generic one has CONFIG_M586 instead
[10:59] <Treenaks> ogra: -generic kernels don't work on via cpu's.. -386 kernels do
[10:59] <cjwatson> ogra: you say you don't have space for the -386 kernel, but your i386 CD is at 682MB
[10:59] <ogra> yeah, just checking that ...

[11:05] <cjwatson> fabbione: it's listed on BzrMaintainedPackages
[11:05] <fabbione> cjwatson: roger
[11:06] <cjwatson> Mithrandir: I suspect the only way to fix ogra's issue is to switch the Edubuntu install CDs back to the 386 kernel, which requires at least a d-i upload to create a cdrom/386 flavour, debian-cd hacking to use it, and seed changes
[11:06] <cjwatson> Mithrandir: what's your opinion?
[11:07] <ogra> cjwatson, well, after the second CD is split out (which i plan to do durng the sprint) i will have space for two kernels ...
[11:07] <cjwatson> so since it will be solved otherwise for feisty, there's also the option of not releasing the i386 Edubuntu install CD with this milestone
[11:08] <ogra> there is just not much i can drop at the moment
[11:08] <Mithrandir> cjwatson: release-note it or drop the alternate edubuntu CD.
[11:08] <ogra> well, then i wont get much testing, i386 is the most intresting arch ...
[11:08] <Mithrandir> ogra: ^^ your call?
[11:09] <ogra> Mithrandir, i'm trying to find something i can drop
[11:09] <cjwatson> you could release note it as the LTSP server option not working
[11:09] <ogra> well 
[11:09] <Mithrandir> cjwatson: yes, that's what I meant.
[11:09] <ogra> lets just switch ltsp to -generic for now ...

[11:22] <cjwatson> I wasn't planning to, unless Mithrandir wants it
[11:23] <fabbione> ok
[11:23] <fabbione> it's not important or urgent for me.. just nice to have
[11:23] <cjwatson> you can commit the os-prober change to bzr though ;-)
[11:23] <fabbione> i already did
[11:23] <Mithrandir> fabbione: we're not at a "nice to have" stage now, so no.
[11:23] <Mithrandir> cjwatson: uh, how broken?
[11:23] <Mithrandir> ogra: accepted; publisher running
[11:24] <ogra> thanks !
[11:24] <fabbione> Mithrandir: yup.. no problem at all. i would have just abused the same publisher run for ubiquity :)
[11:24] <cjwatson> Mithrandir: edit dialog breaks. --new-partitioner isn't the default yet though

[11:29] <seb128> poningru: I can have a look and pin-point some of the nice change they made for 2.17.5 if you want
[11:30] <Mithrandir> cjwatson: i386 is somewhat unhappy in hw-detect since it's trying to modprobe i82365 about five hundred zillion times, but it continues after a little while.

[12:31] <somerville32> Would it be right to say that if a package is in Main, then it supported officially by Canonical?
[12:31] <somerville32> *it is
[12:31] <fabbione> somerville32: s/by Canonical//
[12:31] <fabbione> it's supported by Ubuntu
[12:32] <somerville32> Right
[12:32] <fabbione> some developers for main are not employed by Canonical
[12:32] <fabbione> and still provide support for their pkgs
[12:32] <somerville32> So it would be ludicrous to suggest that Xubuntu isn't supported by the core-dev team since all of Xubuntu's packages are in main?
[12:33] <fabbione> what's the context?
[12:33] <somerville32> "Yes, of course feel free to test Xubuntu as well (or any other derivative). The core dev team has traditionally not focused on testing it because we don't officially support it."
[12:34] <fabbione> well the xubuntu main developer is a core-dev last time i checked...
[12:34] <somerville32> Right
[12:34] <somerville32> There are 2-3 core-devs who actively contribute to Xubuntu
[12:34] <fabbione> and Canonical doesn't support xubuntu is slightly different
[12:35] <fabbione> clearly if i get a bug for the kernel or glibc from xubuntu, it's still a bug
[12:35] <fabbione> but if i get assigned a bug for xfce.. well that's Xubuntu devel business
[12:35] <fabbione> me as fabbione as part of core-dev
[12:35] <fabbione> if you get the point
[12:36] <somerville32> So, Canonical doesn't "support" Xubuntu?
[12:36] <somerville32> Not referring to the fact that they build our ISOs, host our website, etc.
[12:38] <fabbione> somerville32: no Canonical doesn't support Xubuntu directly last time i checked.
[12:38] <fabbione> tho if things did change while i was in vac.. well
[12:38] <somerville32> They do support us directly though
[12:38] <somerville32> They build our ISOs, they host our website, etc.
[12:38] <fabbione> it's 2 different kind of support we are talking about

[02:45] <cjwatson> pitti: I'm not overly keen simply because so many of my users are going to throw a massive wobbly about it
[02:45] <pitti> my main concern is DoS invitation as well, but then again, in the .local range it's easy enough to do a portscan
[02:45] <cjwatson> and sftp is not useful to advertise in quite the same way as, say, a printer, simply because you generally cannot use sftp without authentication
[02:46] <cjwatson> avahi seems massively more useful for unauthenticated services than authenticated ones
=== pitti nods
[02:46] <cjwatson> if somebody's creating an account for you, telling you what host they are is the least of their problems ...
[02:46] <Riddell> I use it all the time for authenticated ones, you still want to connect to local authenticated services
[02:46] <cjwatson> you can use a hostname for that
[02:46] <cjwatson> I just see it as a massively niche case, I'm afraid
[02:48] <cjwatson> also sshing to something whose hostname repeatedly changes means lots and lots of host key confirmation prompts, so I'm not keen on encouraging that configuration
[02:48] <cjwatson> hostname> or IP address
[02:48] <cjwatson> simply because people treat the host key prompt too lightly as it is
=== cr3 [n=marc@modemcable178.77-70-69.static.videotron.ca]  has joined #ubuntu-devel
[02:51] <Mithrandir> cjwatson: your patch seems to have fixed the mounting problem for me.
[02:53] <Riddell> all seems like quite a geeky point of view, "how do I get that file off your computer", "type sftp://foo.local/home/me into the file browser" compared to "go to network and browse for foo"
[02:54] <Riddell> \sh, thom: what's your rationales against it?
[02:54] <cjwatson> Riddell: the host key prompt is the only defence against certain security problems
[02:54] <cjwatson> I don't care whether it appears geeky or not; it's important
[02:55] <cjwatson> Riddell: if people aren't willing to deal with a hostname or an IP address, it seems unlikely that they will be willing to deal with the host key prompt ...

[02:57] <cjwatson> The following packages have unmet dependencies:
[02:57] <cjwatson>   language-support-nb: Depends: mozilla-firefox-locale-nb-no but it is not installable
[02:58] <cjwatson> now the question is why ubiquity couldn't deal with that
[02:58] <siretart> seb128: I've noticed that in the past time, you've reassigned many bugs filed against totem to xine-lib, which is great. When reassinging, could you please ask the submitter to include a reference to a file causing this bug?
[02:58] <siretart> in future, that is
[02:58] <seb128> siretart: ok, will do
[02:58] <Riddell> cjwatson: I'm pretty sure in KDE if the fingerprint fails then you can't connect, if it still allows it in gnome I'm sure seb128 would be happy to fix it :)

[03:00] <dholbach> Mithrandir: deskbar-applet also not urgent
[03:00] <cjwatson> Riddell: sure, and then you have to check that with the owner of the computer
[03:01] <cjwatson> Riddell: so given that the owner has to read out the host key fingerprint anyway, reading out the hostname/IP-address (which is considerably shorter) or a URL is not a problem, IMO
[03:01] <Mithrandir> cjwatson: I'm tempted to release-note it and just get the automount problem in.
[03:02] <Riddell> cjwatson: right, I see your issue then, thanks
[03:03] <cjwatson> Riddell: it's not that I'm intrinsically against advertising ssh via avahi - I don't think it causes a problem per se - but I do think that managing the perception of things in such a way as not to weaken ssh's security in practice by (effectively) social engineering of our users is a more difficult problem that it appears at first
[03:03] <cjwatson> Mithrandir: can I have ten minutes? I feel I'm quite close
[03:03] <cjwatson> Mithrandir: also pitti's problem is still outstanding and I suspect affects only certain languages; try reproducing it by installing in German?
[03:04] <cjwatson> I'm guessing it's a str vs. unicode issue
[03:04] <pitti> cjwatson: I try with English
[03:04] <Mithrandir> cjwatson: ok, I want to go home now anyway, so you have about half an hour. I'll continue testing when I get home.
[03:09] <pitti> cjwatson: right, with English it doesn't crash; noted so in the bug

[03:37] <Lathiat> cjwatson, \sh, Riddell: i probably wouldnt advertise ssh by default
[03:38] <Lathiat> cjwatson, \sh, Riddell: i think advertisements should be something that is user confirmed, e.g. "Share my music"
[03:38] <jdong> "secure file sharing" :)
[03:38] <cjwatson> cute, that fix has the useful effect that it will install as much of language-support-$LL as it can even if some of it is broken
[03:39] <\sh> Lathiat: that's what I said...I don't think advertising ssh is a good thing...I mean, normally I don't have openssh-server installed on my desktop box
[03:39] <Lathiat> \sh: certainly if you *did* advertise it, you would do it when ssh is installed and nto avahi
[03:41] <poningru> please excuse the intrusion but quick question I dont understand whats the big deal about about advertizing ssh, someone can just nmap on the lan and picks it up so...
[03:41] <jdong> poningru: I think it's more of a "why does Joe need to know this?" kind of thing
[03:42] <jdong> same reason why DT_GNU_HASH hasn't been advertised in Kubuntu Feisty yet
[03:42] <jdong> though it offers a very noticeable performance boost
[03:42] <\sh> poningru: plain desktop users don't know what nmap is
[03:42] <Lathiat> plain desktop users arent hackers
[03:42] <poningru> oh so this discussion wasnt from a security standpoint but UE?
[03:43] <cjwatson> poningru: at the intersection of the two
[03:43] <Lathiat> i mean it doesnt really expose alot of info
[03:43] <Lathiat> that isnt otherwise relatively easily findable
[03:43] <Lathiat> but there is a certain security point to avahi
[03:43] <Lathiat> its unsecurity through unobscurity
[03:43] <cjwatson> poningru: like I say, advertising ssh over avahi is not by itself a security problem IMO, but it does not help the user experience if you are actually trying to maintain security

[03:45] <Mithrandir> Lathiat: while you're certainly allowed that opinion, publishing by default for packages which aren't installed by default is ok wrt our network policy.

[06:04] <elmo> pitti: ... file something in RT
[06:04] <pitti> oh, that's not a problem on my end?
[06:06] <ogra> pitti, use a hub server thats not in the telecom network to download

[06:06] <ogra> their routing is fucked
[06:06] <elmo> pitti: try downloading something from durville.c.c - if that's fast, it's your ISP vs. Cogent and we can work around it
[06:06] <elmo> but generally speaking, the point is please report problems if their reproducable, and I'm pretty sure this isn't the first time I've seen you complain about speed problems to u.c
[06:07] <elmo> they're too
[06:07] <pitti> elmo: indeed, I get 400 kB/s from durville
[06:07] <pitti> elmo: sorry, it's pretty much the first time I notice that; I usually use de.archive.u.c
[06:08] <pitti> I just noticed because I wanted to test the new ubiquity quickly
[06:08] <elmo> pitti: ok, maybe I'm misremebering who had sped problems
[06:25] <pitti> yay, ubiquity doesn't crash for me any more
[06:25] <cjwatson> hooray
[06:25] <mjg59> iwj: Most Winmodems nowadays are on a modified ac97 bus called mc97
[06:25] <iwj> So I don't think it's sensible to spend a lot of effort researching nonfree drivers unless there's a compelling reason to include them, so I think a decision in principle to include nonfree drivers (which I wouldn't support) would need to be taken first.
[06:25] <Keybuk> iwj: basically, where a modem needs a binary-only driver, firmware blob or binary-only daemon; that's not a blocker for investigation -- find out what hardware we need to obtain, or whether someone in the team already has that modem, and find out what they need to install, etc.
[06:25] <Keybuk> iwj: the TB will make a decision about the driver once it's packaged and ready to go
[06:25] <Keybuk> iwj: the compelling reason to include them is to be able to support modems
[06:25] <Keybuk> this has been identified as a high priority
[06:25] <mjg59> iwj: slmodem-daemon is the userspace portion
[06:26] <mjg59> iwj: Note that this /doesn't/ apply to Conexant chipsets, such as the ones found on Thinkpads.
[06:26] <mjg59> They need a payware driver. 
[06:26] <iwj> mjg59: Aha.
[06:27] <iwj> mjg59: I must have been looking at the wrong websites.
[06:27] <mjg59> Ignore linmodems.
[06:27] <iwj> mjg59: Ah.
[06:27] <mjg59> It's full of insanity.
[06:27] <iwj> Right.
[06:27] <mjg59> The situation is less good with respect to older chipsets
[06:27] <mjg59> Especially since most of those drivers don't build on anything even vaguely recent
[06:28] <mjg59> Almost all of the drivers for them were never officially released
[06:28] <iwj> Is the LDP modem howto any better ?
[06:28] <mjg59> Might be a little
[06:28] <iwj> Where should I be looking ?
[06:28] <mjg59> That depends on what you're looking for
[06:28] <mjg59> The hwdb is probably a good plan
[06:28] <iwj> mjg59: It was clear that linmodems.org didn't have any significant number of useful drivers.
[06:28] <mjg59> See which PCI chipsets actually pop up
[06:29] <mjg59> I'd be willing to bet that the number of users with PCI winmodems (other than Conexants) is pretty slim
=== ivoks [n=ivoks@backup.grad.hr]  has joined #ubuntu-devel
[06:30] <mjg59> The only other common one is likely to be Lucent
[06:30] <mjg59> Which we already ship a driver for
[06:30] <mjg59> Except it's not SMP-safe. Win.
[06:30] <iwj> And the Conexant users are out of luck because it's payware, which leaves us supporting only these ac97-like ones.  (AMR?)
[06:31] <mjg59> Yeah
[06:31] <kylem> mjg59, groan.
[06:31] <mjg59> There's a "free" 14.4kb version of the Conexant drivers
[06:31] <mjg59> When I mailed them ~18 months ago to ask if we could ship them, they never replied
[06:31] <mjg59> But then, this is the company whose MODULE_LICENSE field reads:
[06:32] <mjg59> "GPL\0With additional restrictions"
[06:32] <_ion> Heh.
[06:32] <mjg59> The kernel does strcmp, hits the null and doesn't taint
[06:32] <mjg59> I think shipping them would result in hatred
[06:34] <kylem> i think that was fixed to check the entire length of the string.
[06:34] <mjg59> iwj: What I'd suggest would be just to bump slmodem-daemon to restricted, and have it check whether there's a Connexant codec
[06:34] <elmo> kylem: the right fix would have been to oops
[06:34] <mjg59> iwj: You can do that by looking at some of the registers under /proc/alsa
[06:34] <kylem> elmo, the right fix would be to sue the company.
[06:34] <kylem> for being utter cunts.
[06:34] <_ion> One could claim they're saying it's GPL, because it is supposed to be read until the \0, and the rest is just some meaningless list of bytes. ;-)
=== MagnusR [n=magru@c83-252-237-96.bredband.comhem.se]  has joined #ubuntu-devel
[06:34] <mjg59> _ion: Eh. The driver's a thin shim around a large blob of compiled C++
[06:34] <mjg59> It's very, very hateful
[06:35] <_ion> ...and because they've published it until GPL (that's the impression they want the kernel to have  let's play along), sue them for the source. ;-)
[06:36] <mjg59> Uh. They're the copyright holders.
=== Gerrath [n=Shane_@unaffiliated/gerrath]  has joined #ubuntu-devel
[06:36] <kylem> iirc it contains a copy of serial_core.c too.

[06:43] <mjg59> The actual modem bit is only shipped as binary
[06:44] <iwj> ./drivers/amrlibs.o  Aha, I see.

[10:07] <Mithrandir> somerville32: yeah, should be done now.

[10:11] <heno> sfllaw: have you looked at http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=201 today?
[10:12] <heno> any ideas on getting the testing going there?
[10:14] <somerville32> Maybe there could be some sort of recognition/incentive for people who actually test and make a report?
[10:15] <heno> I think people also just have to get used to how it works
[10:16] <heno> It's quite tricky when the relevant image can change several times during a day
[10:16] <heno> might be tricky if you're not following on IRC
[10:16] <heno> dunno, we'll have to find out :)

[10:23] <tormod> heno, I think the "signed-up" testers understand they have to dl the daily, and not sit and wait for herd-2 to show up, or having CD's coming down from the sky :)
[10:23] <tormod> have to understand 
[10:23] <heno> It's not a lack of viewings, which we have hundreds of, or lack of volunteers (45+), but of actual tests
[10:23] <LaserJock> ah
[10:24] <heno> tormod: could well be we need to be more clear, yes
[10:24] <LaserJock> heno: it could be just a matter of time
[10:24] <heno> LaserJock: there is a green notice on http://ubuntuforums.org/index.php :)
[10:24] <heno> yeah, could be
[10:25] <LaserJock> heno: oh, that's cool
[10:25] <heno> people may just need a release or two to get used to how it works
[10:25] <LaserJock> heno: there should be a sticky in the fiesty forum though
[10:25] <LaserJock> heno: well, for instance, I download .isos at work and test at night when I go home
[10:26] <LaserJock> perhaps it's just taking a while for people to test and get reports made up
[10:26] <heno> LaserJock: do you have sticking powers?
[10:26] <LaserJock> heno: no I don't
[10:26] <LaserJock> jdong probably does
[10:26] <heno> there is this one: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=333915
[10:26] <somerville32> heno: Should I post on the forums too? I'm just recording my results in the results matrix.
[10:27] <heno> somerville32: yes, please post there too, to show people how it's done
[10:27] <heno> I've done that as well

[10:31] <LaserJock> it might help a little for people doing multiple tests
[10:33] <heno> LaserJock: yep, is there a canonical wiki page for that?
[10:33] <somerville32> Can I modify Testing/Short so that the USB storage test includes unmounting it?

[11:05] <keescook>  /usr/lib32/pango/1.6.0/modules/pango-basic-fc.so
[11:07] <Mithrandir> pitti: if not, I'll do it once this run finishes
[11:07] <Mithrandir> keescook: you probably need to preload a hack to work around that, iirc.
[11:08] <keescook> Mithrandir: I haven't dug into it too hard, but I think it's from pango doing explicit dlopens...
[11:09] <pitti> Mithrandir: I'm currently updating my amd64 and ppc images
[11:09] <Mithrandir> keescook: yes, and you need to preload a small hack which tells it to use another config file.
[11:09] <pitti> Mithrandir: my quota/bandwidth is too bad for downloading i386 :(
[11:09] <XBillGates> I masterbate over Vista.... (w00t j00 steve balmer)
[11:09] <keescook> Mithrandir: aaah, okay.  Let me see if a symlink works first.  :)
[11:09] <Mithrandir> pitti: oh well, I'll do i386 too afterwards, then.
[11:09] <pitti> Mithrandir: I can do the amd64 ones if that helps you
[11:09] <Mithrandir> keescook: look at the soffice.bin in the openoffice.org-amd64 source package.
[11:09] <Mithrandir> pitti: more testing is better, unless you'd rather sleep.
[11:10] <keescook> Mithrandir: I have been, that's how I ended up looking at the ia32 libs.  :)
[11:10] <pitti> Mithrandir: doesn't help, my ppc is much slower than my amd64
[11:10] <XBillGates> do you fellas get paid to work on ubuntu?
[11:10] <pitti> Mithrandir: I give it the standard 'wipe disk/German' test that failed the previous time, can't hurt
[11:10] <Mithrandir> pitti: thanks.
[11:10] <Mithrandir> XBillGates: some do, some don't
[11:11] <XBillGates> ah ok.
[11:11] <keescook> Ah-Ha!  This solves my vmplayer busted-fonts problem too.
