tkamppeterpitti, yes, therefore this mails is primarily addressed to Tollef, but also to others who perhaps can approve this. You are CCed because you will probably upload it as sson as it is approved.01:06
pittiright01:07
=== mgalvin [n=mgalvin@ubuntu/member/mgalvin] has joined #ubuntu-devel
cjwatsontkamppeter: (approved, see mail)01:13
tkamppeterpitti, ESP GS is approved, can you upload it ASAP so that it hits the beta?01:16
tkamppetercjwatson, in how many hours from now is the freeze?01:17
pittitkamppeter: no breakages and properly tested this time? :)01:17
cjwatsontkamppeter: I don't know exactly; tomorrow European business daytime sometime01:19
ogratkamppeter, traditionally the freezes started with the dev meeting, but that might have changed and is not a policy or something01:19
tkamppeterpitti, yes, there are no changes in dependencies, pre/postinstall scripts, ... I hab01:19
ogracjwatson, we should probably set a time at some point and make it policy ... its easier to work towards a deadline you know01:20
tkamppeterhave printed through it and displayed files with it, discovering that bug 42446 is fixed but many other bugs reported to Ubuntu are not fixed, but I did not find any regression.01:21

=== Amaranth [n=travis@ubuntu/member/Amaranth] has joined #ubuntu-devel
cjwatsonI don't know about Tollef but I know that at least I wanted to encourage people not to work towards any particular time on freeze day01:21
cjwatsonbut it's Tollef's call now01:21
ograwhy didnt you want that ? 01:22
cjwatsonyou get pathological results when people try to play the deadline to the nearest minute01:22
kwwiiminute? I count the seconds :p01:22
ografor me knowing i have to be done at 16:00 UTC helps a lot since i know i can sleep some hours and go on tomorrow morning ...01:22
=== cjwatson prefers to know that he's done when he leaves work the day before
ograas long as i dont know that i will go on working and not sleep until i've done everything01:23
tkamppeterBut it is also bad if someone plans to do something at a certain hour, and then out of the blue, shortly before he finishes, the freeze gets announced.01:23
cjwatsonthen it doesn't have to be radically different for different people01:23
cjwatsontkamppeter: this is why it's a really, really, really bad idea to plan to land things on freeze day01:23
ogratkamppeter, yes, thats why i work tonight01:23
cjwatsonsometimes things have to slip right up to the freeze, which happens, but it shouldn't be the norm01:24
ogratkamppeter, and i guess its the reson for pitti as well ...01:24
pittiogra: indeed ;)01:25
cjwatsonof course I'm breaking my own guidelines by being up late working tonight ;)01:25
ograheh01:25
tkamppeterFor me it happened that ESP GS 8,15,4 was announced at 9pm GMT and I remembered Ubuntu deadlines being at midnight GMT and so I submitted my UVF ER shortly before midnight to meet the deadline.01:25
cjwatsonI don't recall any deadline ever *actually* being at midnight01:26
cjwatsonbut my memory may not be perfect01:26
cjwatsonsometimes Chinese Whispers comes into play01:26
tkamppeterOriginally, I did not know that this release will happen today and has a chance to hit the beta.01:26
cjwatsonI'm perfectly OK with the result of freezes being that sometimes upstream releases don't make it01:27
pittitkamppeter: well, would it hurt too hard if we upload it after beta?01:27
cjwatsonanything this close to the beta needs to be reviewed pretty carefully anyway01:27
pittitkamppeter: i. e. does the current version have 'OMGskyisfalling' bugs?01:27
tkamppeterThere were many deadlines set to the beginning GMT midnight of a Thursday, as on Thursday there is devel meeting.01:27
tkamppeterWhat are 'OMGskyisfalling' bugs? These ones like the recent ones of hal and cupsys where we get more than 10 duplicates quickly as they break important functionality?01:28
pittiyes, stuff like that01:29
cliebow_i do like to sit in..gives me a feel for how it goes together01:29
tkamppeterI have never made so many Ubuntu packages on one day as today, fixing up bugs before the beta deadline.01:30
cjwatsontkamppeter: I think that's Chinese Whispers (if the idiom is difficult, that means rumours getting gradually corrupted as they pass from person to person). I can't find any announcements that actually specified that time.01:30
pittitkamppeter: bug 92042 seems to be quite serious01:30

cjwatsonI think it's possible that somebody told you that time, but that's not the same as it being announced as such ...01:30
pitticjwatson: ah, thanks for the 'Chinese Whispers' :) in German we have a similar phrase ("Stille Post")01:31
cjwatsonanyway, not really important now01:31
tkamppeterI hate deadlines being announced only by the day and not by the time, especially in international projects like Ubuntu01:31

cjwatsonassume the least favourable interpretation to you and you'll never be disappointed01:32
pittitkamppeter: right, I meant that this should go into beta01:33
tkamppeterit? I had it ready hours before the potential deadline.01:33

pittitkamppeter_: cupsys> you tested upgrades and fresh install?01:37
tkamppeter_Yes, now I let the postinstall script always recreate the links, independent whether the user has done changes via debconf or not.01:38
pittitkamppeter_: weird, I don't have links, I have file copies01:39
pittiah, those are hardlinks01:39
tkamppeter_pitti, the links are hard links. the postinstall script does "ln" without "-s".01:40
pittitkamppeter_: hm, symlinks would be a bit clearer, but *shrug*01:40
tkamppeter_I do not know why these are hard links. Probably someone at Debian opted for this way.01:40
pittitkamppeter_: why are there more files in backend/ than in backend-available? (beh, bluetooth, canon, epson, hp, hpfax)01:41
pittiah, those are from other packages01:41
=== tkamppeter_ is now known as tkamppeter
pittitkamppeter: gs-esp does not have an updated Maintainer: field; please use current feisty's dpkg01:44
pittitkamppeter: I set it now01:44
tkamppeterI have always used current Feisty's dpkg. Strange, for all other packages it complained with a bad Maintainer: field.01:46
pittitkamppeter: also, the source diff.gz has changes to upstream code, although the package uses dpatch01:46

tkamppeterI have done my Debian morning gymnastics every day (sudo apt-get dist-upgrade).01:47
pittitkamppeter: ah, you don't have an Ubuntuish DEBEMAIL, that's why dpkg doesn't fail any more (it just warns)01:48
tkamppeterThese changes in diff.gz seem to comne from Debian. There were always there and I never touched them.01:48
pittitkamppeter: still these three added files in the diff.gz are alright?01:48
pittiok01:48
tkamppeterYes, by the last upstream one of these files has even gone away (src/gdevpdfo.c).01:49

Mithrandirpitti: I'm unsure if python correctly handles the case of some being written and you then getting a signal (since the return value will then be less than len(data))10:08
Mithrandirpitti: but that's a different problem10:08
pittiMithrandir: that should be identical to write(2)10:09
pittiMithrandir: i. e. if it's interrupted in the middle, the whole write(2) call fails with EINTR10:09

pittiand we don't know how much was written10:09
Mithrandirthat's not what write(2) says.10:09
pittiMithrandir: so the only way to ensure integrity is write(2) itself - it has to roll back the writing on EINTR10:09
Mithrandir       EINTR  The call was interrupted by a signal before any data  was  writ10:09
Mithrandir              ten.10:09
pittiah, nice10:10
Mithrandirin some cases, you can't roll back.  Think a TCP connection.10:10

=== stephanbuys [n=stephanb@196.44.1.98] has joined #ubuntu-devel
Mithrandirpitti: no.  write writes as much as it can, but if you're interrupted in the middle, you'll have a return value that's smaller than count.10:11
pittiMithrandir: right, but then it won't return -1, but a positive number, and thus isn't regarded as 'failed'?10:11
=== Keybuk [n=scott@quest.netsplit.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel
MithrandirI doubt many python programs handle that case correctly; they expect an exception if not all the data is written.10:11

Mithrandirpitti: correct.  It just didn't do what the programmer expected.10:12
Keybukheyhey10:12

pittiMithrandir: yup10:12
pittiMithrandir: but I still think that _write_no_intr() doesn't change that semantics10:12
KeybukMithrandir: throwing an exception and erroring is at least better than most C programs, which carry on regardless :p10:12
MithrandirKeybuk: but python won't be throwing an exception here, I'm fairly sure.10:13
pittiMithrandir: if a program does the wrong thing with _write_no_intr(), it will do the same wrong thing with a plain write(), too10:13

MithrandirKeybuk: we're discussing what happens if you write(2), then get a signal.  In C, you'll just get a smaller return value than what you expected, but I think it's even less common for python programs to handle this correctly (and I don't think python gives you an exception in that case)10:15

fabbionegreat thanks10:16
Keybukyou can get either a smaller value, -EINTR or the value you expected to be written10:16

stephanbuyshi all, anyone working on: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BetterBluetoothSupport ?11:00
stephanbuysI am developing some gnome bluetooth utilities and I'm searching for the best place to co-ordinate work. 11:02
seb128dholbach: ^11:02
dholbachstephanbuys: nice - what are you working on?11:03
stephanbuysdholbach, my "itch" that I'm scratching is that I want to use my cellphone's serial port to do dial-up networking via bluetooth11:05
stephanbuysdholbach, thus the app is a very simple pygtk/dbus app to detect devices in range, allow you to auth and create /dev/rcomm* with a couple of clicks11:05
stephanbuysdholbach, then I'll try and make sure that network-manager recognizes the ports created in the process11:06
dholbachstephanbuys: that sounds awesome11:06
stephanbuysdholbach, its very simple and uses a lot of the established dbus apps (for pins, device discovery etc)11:07
dholbachstephanbuys: I suggest you add it to wiki.ubuntu.com/Bluetooth and send a mail to ubuntu-bluetooth@googlegroups.com - so people can test it11:08
dholbachstephanbuys: i fear it's too late to get it into feisty - but for feisty+1 we should definitely consider it11:08

ograiwj, nope01:20
pittiogra, Riddell: I'll do this in two steps: (1) trim the langpack list to a small number to fix the current overflows, and (2) add more stuff tomorrow when I see how much space we actually have left; doing it in one step today is pretty hard due to the scim stuff01:20

pittijoy. ppc/alternates are 28 MB oversized without having a single non-English langpack on them01:24

pittiogra: you mean 'DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' would be better than calling dexconf directly?04:22
ograpitti, i think so ... 04:22

pittiKeybuk: do you still remember why you call dexconf directly instead of dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg?04:23

mjg59Well, it doesn't appear to be a kernel issue04:54
mjg59The event is generated - udev does nothing useful with it04:54

Keybuktifm_sd has no aliases04:55
Keybukso it won't be automatically loaded04:55
mjg59What sort of aliases should it have?04:55
Keybukit either needs some kind of subsystem:wildcard alias which matches devices exposed from sysfs04:55
Keybukor udev needs something added to 90-modprobe.rules to load it for a particular event04:56

Keybukudev automatically loads a module if the module exports an alias, and the device exports a MODALIAS string05:00
Keybukand they fnmatch05:00
Keybukwe also have a bunch of manual loading rules for "this type of device and this module" for where a modalias isn't possible/feasible/easy05:01

pittiasac: however, it just comes into my mind that they won't appear in Packages.gz, so apt-get won't be able to install them (and apport-retrace doesn't try either)09:18
asacpitti: i do most crash work in feisty and asking to reproduce is not an option as most are not easily reproducible :)09:19

pittiasac: no, only from the ddebs, not from the archive debs09:19

asacyeah ... ok :)09:20

asacfirst you need the debs09:20
asacsecond you won't have debug symbols without sources :/09:20

cjwatsonMithrandir: turns out the bug I was encountering wasn't that, so it's just speculation that that might be what's causing other failures10:23
adamant1988Ok, so I download "working patch"?10:23
cjwatsonMithrandir: any opinions as to whether I should upload it pre-beta anyway?10:23

pittiadamant1988: you mean the 'Identifier' in the 'Section "Device"'?11:46
adamant1988uh huh11:46
ulissedoes GNOME sets a BROWSER variable for the user? I was using openwengo and I noticed it was opening URLs in Opera instead of Firefox, that was my default browser...11:46

pittiulisse: Gnome has a gconf key for that11:48
adamant1988so why don't have I have 3d acceleration?11:48
pittiadamant1988: so as long as "Driver" uses fglrx, it should use that11:48

ulissewhat do I change with update-alternatives?11:51
pittiulisse: there's a common environment variable, yes11:51
pittiulisse: you change /etc/alternatives/x-www-browser with that11:51

ulisseit shouldn't11:52
pittiulisse: I don't know; that's really #ubuntu material now11:52
ulisseok, thanks for now ;)11:53
ulissepitti: it seems that on #openwengo there is a guy that knows well portland, and it says that it looks for a VAR named BROWSER, not a gconf key...11:57
pittiulisse: right, as I said, the $BROWSER environment variable11:58
pittithat's just not what Gnome uses for its default browser11:58
ulissepitti: so $BROWSER is not necessarly the same as the BROWSER key in gconf, right?11:59
pittiulisse: the gconf key is not called BROWSER, but yes11:59
ulisseand how a user could set that $BROWSER var?11:59
pitti. o O { #ubuntu! }12:00
ulisseok, ok, sorry12:00
