| pitti | mvo_: moin; can I bother you with upgrade-manager -d not working? | 09:23 |
| Mithrandir | mdke: I don't know of anybody working on it, but I think it should be relativetly easy to solve. | 09:23 |
| mdke | Mithrandir: removing network manager? :) | 09:24 |
| Fujitsu | mdke: That's what everybody seems to suggest. | 09:24 |
| Fujitsu | Feisty simply can't be released with that bug... | 09:24 |
| mdke | agreed | 09:25 |
| Lure | Mithrandir: it is not that simple: n-m does not know if there are other interfaces at all, therefore it consideres it has all | 09:25 |
| Fujitsu | (it would be best if NM had proper static IP support, but I don't think that's going to happen) | 09:25 |
| Lure | Mithrandir: backend would need to be changed to show all interfaces (also static) and just do not manage them | 09:25 |
| Mithrandir | Fujitsu: not happening for feisty, at least. | 09:25 |
| mdke | Fujitsu: it's not just the static ip support, but also the failure to detect perfectly normal dhcp configured interfaces | 09:25 |
| Mithrandir | Lure: no, it wouldn't. | 09:25 |
| Lure | Mithrandir: suse and fedora are presumably doing this proprely | 09:26 |

| Fujitsu | Treenaks: Ages? I'd say ever. | 10:38 |
| Treenaks | Fujitsu: something like that :) | 10:38 |
| markvandenborre | let me clarify my question, just to make sure that I'm in the right channel... | 10:39 |
| markvandenborre | I'd like to see auto generated iso's for my combination of language and region | 10:40 |
| markvandenborre | (and for others obviously) | 10:40 |
| markvandenborre | so an iso with a sensible default i18n, l10n, dictionaries, keyboard layout and if possible location specific packages (electronic id card reader for example for Belgium) | 10:42 |
| Mithrandir | markvandenborre: we don't have the manpower to QA that well. | 10:42 |
| markvandenborre | Mithrandir, perfectly sensible answer | 10:43 |
| markvandenborre | is there a way locoteams could help with the QA process? | 10:43 |
| markvandenborre | so as to lower the QA load? | 10:43 |
| dfarning | markvandenborre, I am getting together a new team to work on just such issues | 10:43 |
| Mithrandir | it would also require a massive increase in the storage space, etc on the ISO building machine. | 10:43 |
| Mithrandir | I'm not saying it's impossible, I'm just pointing out a couple of problems which would need to be solved. | 10:44 |
| markvandenborre | ok... | 10:44 |
| dfarning | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DerivativeTeam | 10:44 |
| Mithrandir | building an ISO takes about one hour, a bit. | 10:45 |
| dfarning | There are several loco team working on localized distros | 10:45 |
| markvandenborre | Mithrandir, in our case, I'm just trying to do some research to avoid duplication of work | 10:46 |
| markvandenborre | we want a localised iso anyway for our locoteam | 10:47 |
| markvandenborre | and there seem to be many more interested... | 10:47 |
| dfarning | markvandenborre, what langugage | 10:48 |
| markvandenborre | nl_be | 10:48 |
| dfarning | can you send me an email at dfarning@gmail.com so I can follow up with you | 10:49 |
| markvandenborre | will do | 10:49 |
| dfarning | thanks | 10:49 |
| dfarning | I think we have about 20 different localization distos out there right now | 10:49 |
| markvandenborre | Mithrandir, can I help you convince decision makers to give this some priority by gathering support from locoteams around it? | 10:50 |
| markvandenborre | this would prove demand, and guarantee you at least somewhat technically knowledgeable qa testers | 10:52 |
| dfarning | markvandenborre, I doubt that Ubuntu will be able build and provide the localized distro for you any time soon | 10:53 |
| Treenaks | I think providing a simple way to create the image(s) yourself would help | 10:53 |
| Treenaks | 'make-live-image.sh nl_NL' | 10:54 |
| markvandenborre | oh yes, I really don't need much hand holding | 10:54 |
| Treenaks | markvandenborre: (or nl_BE) | 10:54 |
| markvandenborre | and I'm not alone in this | 10:54 |
| Mithrandir | markvandenborre: if we have people who have shown a commitment to test the regular ISOs for a while expressing interest in testing custom ISOs, that would make it more likely to happen. | 10:54 |
| dfarning | Treenaks, I am putting together some derivative spec so we can put together the tools to easily develop such a localization | 10:55 |
| markvandenborre | ok | 10:55 |
| markvandenborre | Mithrandir, dfarning thx for your help | 10:56 |
| markvandenborre | will try to find some people to rally around this | 10:57 |

| mjg59 | cjwatson: Does policy require that packages with an original-maintainer field have an @ubuntu.com address in maintainers? | 11:48 |
| cjwatson | mjg59: no | 11:49 |
| cjwatson | implementation might, which I would consider a bug | 11:49 |
| Fujitsu | mjg59: Policy doesn't, but builds will fail otherwise. | 11:49 |
| cjwatson | Fujitsu: well, that should be fixed. it's wrong. | 11:49 |
| Fujitsu | (pkgmaintainermangler fails) | 11:49 |
| Fujitsu | cjwatson: There's a bug about it. | 11:49 |
| Fujitsu | It's because it tries to add Original-Maintainer, but it already exists. | 11:49 |
| mjg59 | Ok. My acpid upload failed because of that. | 11:50 |
| mjg59 | What's the appropriate thing to do? Wait for it to be fixed and then ask for the package to be rebuilt? | 11:51 |
| Fujitsu | pitti's on that bug, I believe... What you do depends on when it's likely to be fixed, I guess. | 11:52 |
| Mithrandir | mjg59: urgh, sorry about giving you extra mail by giving it back again. | 11:52 |
| Fujitsu | It is a one-character change. | 11:52 |
| mjg59 | Fujitsu: Got a number? | 11:53 |
| Fujitsu | Looking. | 11:53 |
| mjg59 | Thanks | 11:53 |
| Fujitsu | Bug #91086 | 11:53 |
| Ubugtu | Malone bug 91086 in pkgbinarymangler "binary-mangler chokes on non-Ubuntu email addresses that contain a reference (string-wise) to MOTU" [Wishlist,Unconfirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/91086 | 11:53 |
| Fujitsu | The description isn't particularly true. | 11:53 |
| Fujitsu | Sorry, summary. | 11:54 |
| mjg59 | Wishlist? Hm. | 11:54 |
| Fujitsu | It's easy to work around. | 11:54 |
| mjg59 | Not relaly | 11:54 |
| Fujitsu | You just need to use a whitelisted address. | 11:54 |
| Fujitsu | (or convince pitti that a one-character change is worth it) | 11:55 |
| cjwatson | mjg59: you could probably just fix pkgmaintainermangler yourself | 11:55 |
| mjg59 | Yeah | 11:55 |
| pitti | erm, what's up? | 11:55 |
| cjwatson | might need to prod folks to upgrade the buildd chroots - I forget | 11:55 |
| mjg59 | I'm nervous about poking that sort of infrastructure, though :) | 11:56 |
| pitti | mjg59: I recently made it accept @kubuntu.org addresses, I can easily extend that | 11:56 |
| cjwatson | pitti: why does there need to be a whitelist in the first place? | 11:56 |
| pitti | ah, /me looks at that bug | 11:56 |
| mjg59 | pitti: Why not just make it accept any address if there's an original-maintainer field? | 11:56 |
| Fujitsu | pitti: Why not just make it not kill the build when Original-Maintainer already exists? | 11:56 |
| cjwatson | pitti: Maintainer: <anything> Original-Maintainer: <anything> should never error | 11:56 |
| markvandenborre | cjwatson, regarding localised iso's you said: my standpoint has definitely always been that I'm happy to help people build the customised images more easily (e.g. the various documents on help.ubuntu.com/community/) but I don't think the Ubuntu CD image / release teams should ever get into doing it ourselves | 11:56 |
| pitti | I don't know, infinity might have had his reasons | 11:56 |
| Fujitsu | (that is, change `exit 2;' to `exit 0;' on line 63 or similar. | 11:56 |
| === finalbeta [n=finalbet@d54C689F7.access.telenet.be] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| pitti | cjwatson: it doesn't, it chokes on non-Ubuntuish maintainer fields, like MOTU Media Team <motumedia@tauware.de> | 11:57 |
| markvandenborre | I wanted to make clear that I'm not talking so much about custom packages and stuff, rather about i18n, l10n and stuff... | 11:57 |
| Fujitsu | pitti: It only chokes if both Original-Maintainer and a non-Ubuntu maintainer address are present. | 11:58 |
| pitti | Fujitsu, cjwatson, mjg59: yup, it seems that it's time to remove this check, I'll look into it | 11:58 |
| markvandenborre | I'm curious about where you draw the line | 11:58 |
| cjwatson | pitti: right, that's a bug and should be fixed | 11:58 |
| Fujitsu | Thanks pitti, it's pretty trivial. | 11:58 |
| === pitti adjusted the bug | ||
| mjg59 | pitti: Thanks | 11:58 |
| cjwatson | markvandenborre: yeah, that's customisation. We can't afford combinatorial explosion on our own infrastructure; this is exactly the sort of thing where others should pitch in to build the customised images | 11:58 |
| markvandenborre | but you would be able to, say, supply a dead easy customisation script and stuff? | 11:59 |
| cjwatson | markvandenborre: I've never had time to write one myself, but I believe there are such scripts out there, or at least the beginnings of them | 11:59 |
| markvandenborre | like Treenaks joked : sh customise_cd.sh -l nl_be or whatever? | 11:59 |
| markvandenborre | cjwatson, sorry if I'm taking too much of your time here, just trying to look at the limits of what Canonical people could be expected to be able to contribute to | 12:01 |
| cjwatson | markvandenborre: scripting and code fixes and stuff are reasonable enough, but in this case IIRC somebody else has already taken care of much of the scripting | 12:01 |
| markvandenborre | would further development of clean high quality customisation code be an option? | 12:01 |
| markvandenborre | ok, thx, that answered my question before I even asked it ;) | 12:02 |
| cjwatson | markvandenborre: it would certainly be an option, although it always works better when the people who actually have the greatest need for doing it put something together that works for them ... | 12:02 |
| cjwatson | I'd have no objection in principle to Canonical developers doing the sort of work you mention, but it would have to wait its turn behind other priorities so I'm just warning you that it might arrive later than you'd otherwise like. :-) | 12:03 |
| markvandenborre | heh, thx, that's a very clear answer | 12:04 |
| markvandenborre | so if I summarise you correctly, you say: just start fiddling with what's out there, and gather some interest behind it | 12:04 |

| cjwatson | markvandenborre: I think that's a reasonable summary, yes. In general there should be few things (core infrastructure, basically) where Canonical participation is *required*, although there may be many situations where it's useful or the quickest way to get the job done | 12:08 |

| elkbuntu | apokryphos, no... first message had 2 bug numbers, second bug title had a dupe number | 01:44 |
| tkamppeter | No, gs-esp has a file /etc/cups/pstoraster.convs This file shouldNOT be considered as a config file. | 01:44 |
| pitti | Mithrandir: for the record, I did my amd64 alternate and desktop tests (including autoresize this time), I didn't see anything that hasn't been reported before | 01:44 |
| cjwatson | tkamppeter: if it's shipped in the deb, it must be a conffile. If you don't want it to be, you should move it somewhere other than /etc | 01:44 |
| pitti | Mithrandir: edgy upgrades work fine with the /cdrom/upgrade script, but fail with edgy's update-manager; using the one from edgy-proposed works fine | 01:45 |
| apokryphos | elkbuntu: yeah, I would've thought the timeout wouldn't (or probably, shouldn't) permit that though; doesn't matter much though I guess. | 01:45 |
| tkamppeter | So should I make the postinst generate it then | 01:45 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: you usually ship a template in /usr/share or generate it on the fly in postinst | 01:45 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: but NB that you must gracefully handle and respect already existing files on upgrades | 01:45 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: 'shouldNOT be considered as a config file' -> you mean conffile here, right? | 01:46 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: if you really mean 'config file', then the file should be in /var/ | 01:46 |
| tkamppeter | Yes, I mean a conffile. | 01:47 |
| cjwatson | for files in /etc whose format changes gradually over time, it's generally expected that either (a) it's a conffile so the user gets prompted about the changes or (b) the maintainer scripts take care to upgrade the contents of the file | 01:47 |
| === thekorn_ [n=thekorn@a89-182-26-242.net-htp.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| tkamppeter | /etc/cups/pstoraster.convs tells CUPS that there is the pstoraster fileter and how to use it. | 01:47 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: since this already is a conffile, you must not touch it on upgrades | 01:47 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: why do you want to change this, btw? | 01:48 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: it's usually much easier to fix conffiles with package uploads than fixing config files | 01:48 |
| tkamppeter | pitti, but this file is not supposed to be modified by the user. So the user got a stone-old version yeasr ago and it will never get updated. | 01:48 |
| cjwatson | tkamppeter: incorrect: conffiles get automatically changed unless the user has changed them; otherwise the user will be prompted | 01:49 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: your answer has several wrong concepts | 01:49 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: everything in /etc can be modified by users | 01:49 |
| cjwatson | (assuming there's a controlling terminal) | 01:49 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: and "config files" will never be automatically updated; conffiles will | 01:49 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: that's why I said that conffiles are usually what you want | 01:49 |

| tkamppeter | So then how to fix bug 90988? The problem here is that the user got a file /etc/cups/pstoraster.convs from an old Ubuntu version and with the time the file was changed in the Ubuntu package gs-esp. Updates of gs-esp do not replace the file. | 01:51 |

| cjwatson | tkamppeter: one mistake that may be responsible is that sometimes developers attempt to both ship a file as a conffile (i.e. in the .deb) AND edit it in maintainer scripts; this is wrong wrong wrong and can often lead to users getting erroneously prompted. If your package has | 01:51 |

| pitti | cjwatson: your reply was clipped, btw | 01:52 |
| tkamppeter | Here it seems that the user never got prompted. He was always left with his old /etc/cups/pstoraster.convs file. | 01:52 |
| cjwatson | tkamppeter: ... ever edited that file in a maintainer script as well as shipping it in a conffile, then that could be responsible for problems | 01:52 |
| cjwatson | tkamppeter: that doesn't normally happen. | 01:52 |
| cjwatson | tkamppeter: but if the file got edited and they upgraded using something which didn't present them with the standard conffile prompt, then it's possible | 01:53 |
| tkamppeter | The current maintainer scripts do not touch pstoraster.convs. | 01:54 |
| cjwatson | tkamppeter: there are the following suitable responses: (a) the user edited the file by hand => reject bugs about it not getting upgraded, as it's their problem now; (b) a maintainer script edited the file by hand => fix the maintainer script not to do that; (c) the file should never ever ever be edited by users under any circumstances => move it out of /etc | 01:54 |
| hunger | why is all of the sudden linux-image-dbug-2.6.20-10-server going to get installed? I am using the -generic kernel... | 01:54 |
| cjwatson | but don't move files out of /etc just because users edited the file by hand and then the usual conffile resolution process did the wrong thing for them | 01:54 |
| StevenK | cjwatson: (d) use ucf, and open up a whole other raft of problems ? | 01:55 |
| tkamppeter | The file really should not be edited by hand, so (c) should be the right solution, but problem is that CUPS only searches /etc for such files. | 01:55 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: use a symlink then | 01:55 |
| cjwatson | CUPS is free software and therefore patchable ... | 01:55 |
| cjwatson | symlinks from /etc to elsewhere are a bit grotty | 01:55 |
| tkamppeter | So the bug is an upstream bug of CUPS, so I should file a feature request for a second search place. | 01:56 |
| cjwatson | that's the sort of thing it's perfectly reasonable to patch in locally | 01:56 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: shuold be easy to fix ourselves | 01:57 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: of course that patch should be proposed upstream as well | 01:57 |

| pitti | tkamppeter: that would be wrong, so I hope dpkg won't | 01:58 |
| tkamppeter | pitti, how would you solve it? In the CUPS package by patching CUPS to provide a second search location for .types and .convs files not editable by the user? | 01:59 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: that definitively sounds cleaner | 01:59 |
| tkamppeter | pitti, or do you have an idea for a fix inside the gs-esp package? | 02:00 |
| cjwatson | fixes in one package aren't necessarily better than fixes in multiple packages | 02:00 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: the gs-esp package should then stop shipping the conffile, rm it in the postinst on upgrades, and generate it on the fly in /var in postinst | 02:00 |
| === dholbach_ [n=daniel@i59F77B08.versanet.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| cjwatson | pitti: sounds like it should be in /usr, not /var? after all it's shipped at the moment, not generated dynamically | 02:01 |
| tkamppeter | pitt, but this will only work if CUPS is changed to search in /var. | 02:01 |
| pitti | cjwatson: I don't know | 02:01 |
| cjwatson | tkamppeter: correct. Fixing cups sounds useful | 02:01 |
| === cypherbios [n=cypher@ubuntu/member/cypherbios] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| pitti | tkamppeter: will a static file version work for everyone, or does it need to be dynamically generated? | 02:01 |
| tkamppeter | I think, /usr is correct, as pstoraster.convs ships as a ready-made file with constant content. | 02:02 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: if the former, then it should be in some .d directory in /usr/share | 02:02 |
| tkamppeter | pitti, the static file works for everyone. | 02:02 |
| pitti | oh, not a .d directory | 02:02 |
| cjwatson | cups should look in /etc first though, just in case somebody does need to generate it by hand | 02:02 |
| cjwatson | and the thing that removes it in the postinst on upgrades should (a) only do so once, when upgrading to the version that removes the conffile (b) check against various known md5sums for the conffile before nuking itt | 02:03 |
| cjwatson | it | 02:03 |
| tkamppeter | So bug 90988 is a design bug of CUPS. So we must make CUPS searching in /etc plus the new directory and report an upstream bug (not a feature request) with this patch. | 02:04 |

| pitti | ogra: how much? | 02:20 |
| ogra | i have pleanty of space on my add-on CD ... | 02:20 |
| tkamppeter | Mithrandir, I think this is the best way then, as this file is usually really not manually modified or removed by users, the problemn in the bug does not happen. So we should tell in the release notes that when the user gets this problem he should do | 02:20 |
| tkamppeter | dpkg -P --force-depends gs-esp | 02:20 |
| ogra | pitti, the total size of all of these langpacks | 02:20 |
| tkamppeter | apt-get install gs-esp | 02:21 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: I think Mithrandir alluded to the edgy->feisty upgrade test results | 02:21 |
| tkamppeter | and everything is reset to normal and the file will be regularly updated again. | 02:21 |

| tkamppeter | pitti, Mithrandir, sorry. But perhaps we should really add a realeas note for this one, too. WDYT? | 02:23 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: hm, if we would start documenting every bug in the release notes, they'd get pretty long | 02:23 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: this bug should be fixed IMHO, not documented | 02:23 |
| tkamppeter | So the best would be that I should change all the affected packages before beta? | 02:24 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: it's just adding that three-line patch to cupsys and doing some shuffle in the gs-esp packaging, right? or does it affect more stuff? | 02:25 |

| cjwatson | ) | 02:27 |
| tkamppeter | pitti, which /usr/share should be searched by CUPS? Should we introduce a new /usr/share/cups/mime and propose this one also upstream? | 02:29 |
| Riddell | mvo_: I uploaded it, let's see what happens | 02:29 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: sure, sounds sane | 02:30 |
| ^robertj | what magic-grub options need to be appended if you install grub by hand? ubiquity died at the end of the install when I ran it without with the migration assistant | 02:30 |
| ^robertj | (c2d laptop on amd64) | 02:30 |
| ^robertj | right now it hangs on or after USB | 02:31 |
| tkamppeter | Only thing is that I do not like very much to make a distribution package be very much different to upstream, but the architecture of CUPS seems to be far away from (Ubuntu, Debian, ...) Linux requirements. | 02:31 |
| ^robertj | aha! it did timeout after a while | 02:32 |

| heno | pitti: yeah, I'm a bit behind the curve on this round :-/ | 03:23 |
| heno | pitti: does that mean you'd like to do more images for beta? :) | 03:23 |
| pitti | heno: I can do OEM and expert on amd64/alternate as well if you want me, then I would have everything ever possible | 03:24 |

| === mneptok [n=mneptok@modemcable178.77-70-69.static.videotron.ca] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| heno | pitti: as in more leveling would be appreciated or as in this was better than before? | 03:25 |
| heno | pitti: this is the sort of feedback I need to balance things out | 03:26 |
| pitti | heno: I meant that 3 hours seems quite appropriate to me, and I wouldn't mind doing OEM and expert in addition, but we shuold try to assign a roughly equal workload to folks; not just for boredom reasons, but also to minimize the critial path time | 03:28 |
| pitti | heno: however, the 3 hours was a bit with cheating: I didn't count the time when d-i/ubiquity grinded away on their own in vmware (I did something else in between) | 03:29 |
| pitti | so the actual 'start testing to mark everything as completely tested' turnaround is more like 7 hours | 03:30 |
| heno | pitti: agree. Workload can be difficult to judge though, and the time used may depend on people's hardware, download speed, etc. So I appreciate the feedback | 03:30 |
| pitti | right | 03:30 |
| pitti | heno: the two upgrade tests were the ones which took a very large chunk of it (1.5 hours for each of the two test) | 03:31 |
| pitti | and if I had done this on real hardware, it would have taken about 8 hours, I guess | 03:31 |
| heno | pitti: I can imagine. And thanks for doing those; I for one am not set up to do those | 03:32 |
| pitti | heno: oh, no problem | 03:32 |
| pitti | heno: I use the feisty alternate CD as an additional apt source, so it doesn't eat too much bandwith | 03:32 |
| pitti | width, even | 03:32 |
| heno | hm, ok cool | 03:33 |
| pitti | and I don't think that it is vital to do those upgrade tests on real hardware, vmware should do fine | 03:33 |

| LaserJock | ? | 09:23 |
| grndslm | everybody needs a fresh install every once in a while | 09:24 |
| LaserJock | people reinstall like crazy :-) | 09:24 |
| grndslm | no joke | 09:24 |
| Keybuk | nobody should need a fresh install | 09:24 |
| ajmitch | probably because of various things like automatix or random crack they install | 09:24 |
| Keybuk | if there's a bug that causes that, we should fix that one | 09:24 |
| grndslm | Keybuk: this guy's complaining in #ubuntu about not being able to upgrade from dapper to edgy | 09:24 |
| Keybuk | grndslm: has he filed bugs for the problem packages? | 09:24 |
| LaserJock | many people just get to a point where they just give up and reinstall | 09:24 |
| grndslm | Keybuk: a bug is that the installer doesn't do "error checking" because most desktop users will want a /home dir, but some don't know it | 09:25 |
| xhaker | Keybuk, open source is about choice! | 09:25 |
| grndslm | because they're so overwhelmed...then once they get settled in and have 10gigs of data and no means of backup | 09:25 |
| Keybuk | grndslm: I would argue that is wrong; most users do not want a /home | 09:25 |
| grndslm | Keybuk: he doesn't even know how to add repos to sources.list... | 09:25 |
| geser | ogra: Florent Mertens mailed me about his started merge of fuse 2.6.3. Based on his additional changes I've prepared a new debdiff (fixes bug #87767) | 09:25 |
| Ubugtu | Malone bug 87767 in fuse "Grep flags used in /etc/modoprobe.d/fuse do not work in initramfs" [Undecided,Unconfirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/87767 | 09:25 |
| grndslm | how would he know to track some bugs? | 09:25 |
| Keybuk | if a user doesn't know how to do difficult things, then they definitely don't want /home to be seperate | 09:26 |
| grndslm | bull junk | 09:26 |
| grndslm | give me a practical desktop use case where /home shouldn't be separate?? | 09:26 |
| grndslm | i can't think of one | 09:26 |
| ogra | geser, ah, yes, i saw that one .... its a trivial fix | 09:26 |
| Keybuk | an ordinary machine with a single desk | 09:26 |
| Mithrandir | grndslm: in most cases, I just make / the full disk. | 09:26 |
| Keybuk | uh, disk | 09:26 |
| geser | ogra: the debdiff is at http://members.ping.de/~mb/debdiffs/. There are also debdiffs to rebuild ltspfs, ntfs-3g and linux-ntfs | 09:26 |
| Keybuk | users will be filing bugs wondering why they can't upgrade (disk full) | 09:27 |
| grndslm | Keybuk: i have a single disk on my laptop | 09:27 |
| Keybuk | or why they can't save more files (disk full) | 09:27 |
| Keybuk | despite having plenty of free space | 09:27 |
| grndslm | but i wouldn't be caught dead leaving /home on the root partition | 09:27 |
| Keybuk | /home on a different *disk* makes sense | 09:27 |
| geser | ogra: these 3 package need the FUSE_2.6 symbol but don't depend on libfuse2 >= 2.6 | 09:27 |
| Keybuk | but a different partition? no point except for "old school did it that way" ness | 09:27 |
| grndslm | Keybuk: sure...but most people only use one disk | 09:28 |
| Mithrandir | Keybuk: makes sense on servers, but they're not the use case we're discussing here. | 09:28 |
| Keybuk | for a single-disk machine, I make one partition that fills the entire disk | 09:28 |
| Keybuk | Mithrandir: exactly | 09:28 |
| ogra | geser, why do you wipe the initscripts from the source ? | 09:28 |
| ogra | just keep them but dont install them | 09:28 |
| Keybuk | Mithrandir: and even then, I'd argue that you're more likely to put /home on a different disk or even have it NFS mounted | 09:28 |
| grndslm | Keybuk: i can't believe you're seriously trying to tell me that /home should be under the root dir | 09:28 |
| Keybuk | grndslm: yes | 09:28 |
| Keybuk | I am seriously telling you that | 09:28 |
| Lure | Keybuk: it makes sense if you have your laptop disk with dual boot (edgy + feisty) with shared /home | 09:28 |
| geser | ogra: ok, will update the debdiff | 09:28 |
| Keybuk | and I am arguing that doing otherwise has no practical benefits | 09:28 |
| grndslm | to ask a question | 09:29 |
| Mithrandir | Keybuk: I tend to RAID + LVM/EVMS stuff on servers because I might not know what needs I'll have in the future. | 09:29 |
| Lure | Keybuk: but that is far from common case | 09:29 |
| Keybuk | Lure: no reason to do that; use chroots | 09:29 |
| grndslm | has no practical benefit | 09:29 |
| grndslm | i just gave you one example | 09:29 |
| Keybuk | grndslm: you haven't given a useful example | 09:29 |
| Keybuk | "what if they fail to upgrade" -- solution = fix that issue | 09:29 |
| grndslm | do you ever look at #ubuntu? | 09:29 |
| Keybuk | yes, frequently | 09:29 |
| grndslm | everyday i see people who can't upgrade from dapper to edgy easily for one reason or another | 09:29 |

| ogra | Keybuk, its talking about moving houses ... | 09:31 |
| ogra | for sure !! | 09:31 |
| grndslm | such as...if you are a desktop user...it's usually a good idea to but your /home directory on a separate partition, would you like to take more time and think about this or are you sure you know what you're doing??? | 09:31 |
| grndslm | something like that | 09:31 |

| ogra | yeah | 09:31 |
| Keybuk | grndslm: but it's not a good idea | 09:31 |
| grndslm | design is a great idea | 09:31 |
| Keybuk | it doesn't help you at all | 09:32 |
| grndslm | how not | 09:32 |
| mjg59 | The problem is "Users find it difficult to upgrade", not "/home is not on a separate partition" | 09:32 |
| grndslm | i wouldn't have to explain to dumbasses on a daily basis why their /home should be separate | 09:32 |
| Keybuk | you only do it because somewhere along the line, someone realised it was possible to split the UNIX filesytem across multiple disks | 09:32 |
| Mithrandir | grndslm: but it shouldn't! | 09:32 |
| Keybuk | and therefore everyone decided to do this | 09:32 |
| kronoman | because is a good idea ;) | 09:33 |
| Keybuk | and where they had a single disk, they split that into miniature partitions *just so they could do this* | 09:33 |
| Keybuk | and someone noticed this allows you to wipe your install and start again | 09:33 |
| Keybuk | a convenient bypass to tricky upgrades | 09:33 |
| geser | ogra: a fixed debdiff it at the mentioned url | 09:33 |
| ogra | btw we dont have dumbasses in ubuntu ... only some underskilled users :) | 09:33 |
| Keybuk | this isn't a fix for tricky upgrades, it's ignoring the problem | 09:33 |
| Keybuk | we should spend our time *fixing the upgrade problem* | 09:33 |
| grndslm | Keybuk: a convenient bypass to tricky upgrades is right | 09:33 |
| Mithrandir | it also made sense back in the days when your file system blew up every so often so you wanted to limit the damage, but file systems have gotten way more robust over time. | 09:33 |
| ogra | geser, ta | 09:33 |

| === Monk-e [n=guido@c529dd229.cable.wanadoo.nl] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||

| grndslm | Keybuk: you never want a fresh start? | 09:34 |
| Mithrandir | grndslm: the convenient bypass is "take a backup and restore that". People shouldn't be running without backups, and certainly not upgrading without backups. | 09:34 |
| ogra | grndslm, but you just fiddle around with the symptom instead of curing the cause | 09:34 |

| Keybuk | mjg59: agreed | 09:35 |
| grndslm | LaserJock: most people don't have any other tape or disc to backup to! | 09:35 |
| kronoman | normal people don't do backups | 09:35 |

| grndslm | all i'm trying to tell you guys is that prevention is the easiest, cheapest, and fastest way to solve problems | 09:38 |
| grndslm | if you want to cause more problems, then keep it the way it is | 09:38 |
| grndslm | but i don't think that's what OSS and ubuntu in particular is about | 09:38 |
| grndslm | at least i'm hoping | 09:38 |
| Keybuk | Ubuntu is all about making an operating system that just works | 09:38 |
| kronoman | grndslm: I can say that, today, my disk with / crashed, but I'm fine because /home is in a separate disk | 09:39 |
| grndslm | exactly...and it'll work but most newbs will run into problems if they aren't educated about separating /home dir | 09:39 |

| fabbione | Mithrandir: slacker! that means you never tested the installer on your machine :) | 09:41 |

| jdong | Lutin: almost every other torrent client slaps the crap outta it.... | 10:45 |
| tepsipakki | ogra: it is? | 10:46 |
| tepsipakki | ogra: annoying, that is | 10:46 |
| tepsipakki | ogra: there were a number of reports requesting that | 10:46 |

| jdong | tepsipakki: well I for one welcome our side-scrolling overlords | 10:47 |
| ogra | tepsipakki, it got totally unprecise and if i use my taskbar for klicking on apps there which i do from time to time it starts to get mad | 10:47 |
| Lutin | jdong: even if not maintained, the intersting point is that for now, any program using python2.4 won't be able to use wxgtk :) | 10:47 |
| tepsipakki | ogra: so there was a reason why it was off | 10:48 |
| ogra | tepsipakki, i usually end up with 4-7 flashing apps in the taskbar if i try to switchto a specific one ... | 10:48 |
| tepsipakki | not that the changelog mentioned it or anything | 10:48 |
| jdong | Lutin: right, I think doko might do that wxgtk-version stuff :) | 10:48 |
| ogra | only if i use the TP very very carefully i can acturlly reach the app | 10:48 |
| Lutin | jdong: ok :). thanks | 10:49 |
| tepsipakki | ogra: ah, because you use the area for horizontal movement trying to select an app? | 10:49 |
| ogra | additionally my TP seems to react to my palm all the time, it didnt do that before my past dist-upgrade | 10:49 |
| tepsipakki | ogra: did you regenerate your xorg.conf? | 10:49 |
| ogra | tepsipakki, well, i move the mouse down to the taskbar, that gets me into that area, yes ... | 10:49 |
| ogra | yes, i did | 10:49 |
| tepsipakki | right | 10:49 |
| ogra | my problem is that it is way to sensitive on my laptops ... | 10:50 |
| jdong | ogra: strange.... my touchpad uses the scrollzones as normal touchpad area, unless I scroll in them.... | 10:50 |
| jdong | if i enter from a non-scrolling zone it does not scroll | 10:50 |
| ogra | jdong, if you move only slightly diagonal it goes mad here ... | 10:50 |
| jdong | ogra: hmm interesting | 10:51 |
| ogra | same for a slight touch with the palm while typing | 10:51 |
| tepsipakki | hrm.. I asked around why it was disabled and nobody knew | 10:51 |
| jdong | that should be an option exposed in mouse options *g* | 10:51 |
| jdong | tepsipakki: the first thing I do is enable mine :) | 10:51 |
| jdong | and special tapping corners | 10:51 |
| ogra | right, but we dont have it as an option yet | 10:51 |
| jdong | and 2/3-finger taps | 10:51 |
| tepsipakki | it can be reverted | 10:51 |
| ogra | i assume that was the reason to disable it | 10:51 |
| tepsipakki | so it seems | 10:51 |
| jdong | it'll revert just with a VScrollDelta | 10:52 |
| jdong | or whatnot | 10:52 |
| jdong | set to 0 | 10:52 |
| ogra | i'd try to get used to it, but it *feels* very buggy here ... on two different lappies | 10:52 |
| tepsipakki | HorizScrollDelta | 10:52 |
| tepsipakki | ogra: vertical scrolling works? | 10:55 |
| ogra | always did | 10:55 |
| ogra | and does without probs now as well ... | 10:56 |
| tepsipakki | strange thing that it's bugfree | 10:56 |
| tepsipakki | oh well, maybe it just calls for a proper configuration gui | 10:56 |
| ogra | well, its an area thats not as often used as the bottom ... | 10:56 |
| tepsipakki | and keep safe defaults | 10:56 |
| ogra | right | 10:56 |
| sistpoty | Riddell: around? we just had some idea about the kde4 stuff, not quite sure what you'd make from it? | 11:05 |
| pochu | I have just read the beta freeze announcement, and I have a little (maybe stupid?) question. Does the freeze affect also to Universe? | 11:07 |
| === j1mc [n=jcampbel@157.199.22.99] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| sistpoty | pochu: I guess it'll be the same as for the recent freezes: universe uploads will just stack up until after freeze and then go through all at once | 11:11 |
| ajmitch | oh damn, beta freeze already? | 11:12 |
| pochu | ajmitch: this Thursday | 11:12 |
| j1mc | have there been any pre-beta builds of xubuntu yet? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-iso-tests/+bugs i see builds for kubuntu, ubuntu, and edubuntu . . . no xubuntu. :-( | 11:12 |
| j1mc | howdy pochu | 11:12 |
| ajmitch | pochu: good, I may still have a chance of bugging Mithrandir about f-spot | 11:12 |
| pochu | heya j1mc :) | 11:12 |
| pochu | hehe | 11:12 |
| Mithrandir | ajmitch: I'm off to bed now, but I got your mail, yes. | 11:13 |
| ajmitch | ok, good | 11:13 |
| pochu | j1mc: the fact that there are no reports about xubuntu in the iso test tracker doesn't mean that there are no images for xubuntu ;) | 11:14 |
| pochu | j1mc: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/daily-live/ and http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/daily/ | 11:14 |
| pochu | j1mc: regarding the bug reports, we still have to see what we're going to do | 11:14 |
| pochu | heno: around? | 11:14 |
| j1mc | pochu: i know that there are current images, but i just want to make sure that we can report our test results. | 11:14 |
| pochu | j1mc: oh, ok :) | 11:15 |
| pochu | Mithrandir: would it be possible to add xubuntu reports to the iso testing tracker? | 11:15 |
| heno | pochu: yes | 11:15 |
| pochu | heno: what do you think regarding xubuntu reports? | 11:15 |
| j1mc | i have hordes of xubuntu testers ( https://launchpad.net/~xubuntu-testers/ ) that i am going to unleash on the ISO testing page on launchpad. we are going to crash launchpad. ;-) | 11:15 |
| heno | j1mc: unlikely | 11:16 |
| j1mc | ;-) i know . . . i was joking. | 11:16 |
| heno | j1mc: seriously, that's great! | 11:16 |
| pochu | heno: I know it isn't oficialy supported, but as there are enough xubuntu testers, it would be interesting to have such bug reports, don't you think? | 11:16 |
| heno | just have them file comments, that's fine | 11:16 |
| heno | we do | 11:16 |
| pochu | heno: really? | 11:16 |
| heno | don't we? | 11:16 |

| heno | cool, thanks | 11:29 |
| pochu | sistpoty: I thought in the other freezes universe was as usual, no stacks | 11:43 |
| sistpoty | pochu: uploading was as usual, but the packages were still held back until after the freeze | 11:44 |
| pochu | ah, ok | 11:44 |
| pochu | sistpoty: thanks for the clarification :) | 11:44 |

| elmo | Lutin: you set your preferred email to lutin-@ubuntu.com | 12:05 |
| elmo | Lutin: that gets you dropped from the @ubuntu.com forwarding because a) it's a loop and b) there's nowhere for it to be forwarded to | 12:06 |
