therealnanotubecould someone please tell me about ubuntu package versioning conventions. e.g, if i have something with Version: "4.19-1ubuntu2.1", i understand that 4.19 is the actual software version, but what's the 1ubuntu2.1 stand for?05:59
therealnanotubei want to package my software into an ubuntu deb, and i want to know how the versioning stuff goes...05:59
therealnanotubei hope this is a good place to ask... :)06:00
ion_Try #ubuntu-motu06:00
persiatherealnanotube: 1 is the debian revision, and 2.1 is the ubuntu revision.  This probably means Ubuntu made two uploads after the last Debian upload, and then there was a security release (or the like).  #ubuntu-motu may be a better place to ask about packaging.06:00

=== hoora_ [i=ariel@gateway/tor/x-224ce5002dd2dab8] has joined #ubuntu-devel

=== persia wonders about the potential build queue once it starts being fed again

FujitsuWhatever it is that's meant to create builds from published sources and stick them in the queue has got some issues.07:49
FujitsuAt least it isn't eating uploads.07:49
persiaFujitsu: That may not be a good thing.  It's too easy to upload something that build-depends on something else that changed with a significant build/release delay.07:50

wwoodsthe major thing ATM is the crashdb bit - you mention on the wiki that you want to have a separate crashdb05:53

wwoodspitti: avoid writing to disk temporarily? I'm not sure we're talking about the same patch05:54
pittiwwoods: separate crashdb> for Launchpad, right05:54
wwoodsI need to figure out all of the diffs in core_pattern support between vanilla and ubuntu kernels05:54
pittiwwoods: elfcore.py sounds like you extract the pid and signal from the core file instead of getting it from the environment?05:54
wwoodspitti: right - as it comes over the pipe05:54
pittiwwoods: there aren't that many, I can point them to you05:55
wwoodsnow that you mention it.. yeah, when using core_pattern I end up with a crash report *and* a corefile05:56

wwoodswe actually started work on a kernel coremonitor generic netlink socket05:56
wwoodsso you could connect to this netlink socket and get headers + corefile when a program dumps core05:56
wwoodsbut.. I realized.. it's almost exactly the same as reading the core over a pipe and extracting that info from the headers05:57
pittiwwoods: ah, so you wrote code to extract pid, signal, and exename from the first few kB of the core?05:57
wwoodspitti: yep05:57
pittiwwoods: that sounds indeed cool05:57
wwoodsit could be extended to get further info05:57
wwoodsdepending on what you want from the ELF headers05:58
pittithose three are enough, I think05:58
wwoodsbut those are the only ones I was interested in05:58
pittiwwoods: that still leaves the ulimit overriding05:59
wwoodshttp://pastebin.ca/610661 has a patch you should take05:59
wwoodsthe patch is obvious05:59
wwoodsbut.. in RPM-land it's possible to have versions that aren't identical strings but *are* equal05:59
wwoodse.g. "0:2.1-4.fc7" versus "2.1-4.fc7"06:00
wwoodshence.. gotta use compare_versions any time you're comparing versions06:00
pittiwwoods: ah, I see06:00
Mithrandirwwoods: you have that in dpkg-land too06:01
pittiwwoods: in fact that's true for .deb, too, although noone explicitly writes 0:06:01
Mithrandir: tfheen@thosu ~ > dpkg --compare-versions 0:1 eq 1 && echo true06:01
Mithrandirtrue06:01
wwoodsit's rare in rpmland but it happens. I was getting apport refusing to create a report because it thought I had obsolete packages06:01
Mithrandirand more surprisingly, maybe:06:01
Mithrandir: tfheen@thosu ~ > dpkg --compare-versions 1-0 eq 1 && echo true06:01
Mithrandirtrue06:01
wwoodsthere's a bunch of perl packages that have an explicit 0:06:01
wwoodsanyway.. as for the ulimit override06:02
wwoodsit seems sensible that writing to a pipe should override ulimit06:02
wwoodsbut on the other hand, it means that we need to trust userspace process to honor it06:02
pittiright, of course06:02
wwoodsI'm not sure if that's a security problem or not06:02
=== jdstrand [n=james@mail.strandboge.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel

pittiwwoods: but of course it creates a potential bug06:03
wwoodsthe kernel guys were kind of wary, but then.. that's exactly the problem we'd have with the netlink socket06:03

wwoodsone problem we have is that bugzilla doesn't seem to have an RPC for attaching a file06:06
=== Hobbsee shrugs, goes back to hiding
pittiwwoods: I recently implemented https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CrashReporting and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ApportCrashDuplicates, that helped a lot06:06
wwoodswhich is why I was thinking of having a separate crashdb, which allows authorized people to link a crash to a new bugzilla/etc bug06:07
pittiwwoods: so in particular, we left apport itself on, so it continues to generate crash reports in stables; but we disabled the automatic notifications about them06:07
pittiwwoods: so that community members can still call the UI manually06:07
wwoodsinteresting06:07
=== Mithrandir rattles the bush Hobbsee is hiding under
=== Hobbsee screams, and runs away
=== Hobbsee hides under a rock
pittiwwoods: right; right now we (ab)use private bugs for crash reports, but eventually LP will get a real crash db concept06:08
wwoods"avoid exposing potentially sensitive data to the public and avoid sending unwanted bug email to developers" is the thing that made me start work on this06:08

wwoodsbut both can be kept in the source06:11
pittiwwoods: right, apport-{retrace,chroot} are the two remaining tools which do not use the abstract packaging interface06:12

=== giskard [n=giskard@213-140-22-74.fastres.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel
pittiwwoods: I'm not sure, TBH; it would basically mean to move 90% of their code into the packacing interface06:12
wwoodsright, I think it's OK to have separate implementations per-distro06:13
pittiwwoods: it's on my wishlist, though06:13
wwoodssince, like you said, 90% of the code in there is distro-specific anyway06:13
pittiwwoods: I'm fine with having -apt and -rpm versions in the upstream trunk and mangle debian/* to install the right one06:14
wwoodssure - we already do that with packaging_impl anyway06:14
pittiwwoods: python report.py -v is happy now; committing06:14
wwoodsoh, I wrote packaging_fedora.py as a subclass of a semi-abstract packaging_rpm.py, so someday we can go bother the SuSE/Mandriva folks to join us06:15

wwoodspitti: so, every crash is still a new bug? doesn't that generate huge amounts of mail?06:21
pittiwwoods: http://people.ubuntu.com/~pitti/patches/apport-exec.c.diff06:21
pittiwwoods: email> not any more, since those are now private bugs with a 'black hole' team email address06:22
wwoodsahhh06:22
wwoodsso (in bugzilla terms) it gets assigned to its own special component for crash dumps06:22
pittiwwoods: the plan is to use canned searches and automatically generated reports now06:22
wwoodsand then gets moved to the right place by the retracer?06:23
pittiwwoods: i. e. sorting by number of duplicates, or packages which have the most crash reports, etc.06:23
pittiwwoods: please take a look at the wiki page, it explains our setup06:23
pittiwwoods: but please note that CrashReporting is both Ubuntu specific and also a temporary hack until we get a real crash db06:23
pittiwwoods: so every distro/bug tracker has to find its own workflow which works best06:23
wwoodsright, which is why I was thinking about hacking up a proper crash db webapp-type thing06:24
wwoodsso I spent this weekend wrestlin' with turbogears trying to do that06:24
pittiwwoods: not sure, maybe the google breakpad already provides that?06:24
wwoodshaven't looked at the server-side breakpad stuff, but doesn't that require linking in breakpad libs?06:25
pittiI don't know06:25
pittiwwoods: recently I talked to the upstream bug-buddy Gnome guys06:25
pittiwwoods: they use the client-side stuff for generating a minidump etc.06:25
pittiwwoods: but they still use bugzilla for the crashes06:25
wwoods"Breakpad provides client libraries for each of its target platforms."06:26
pittiI haven't looked at it for a long time, it just might be worth checking out06:26
wwoodsyeah, it's basically a cross-platform reporter, like talkback (or whatever firefox/mozilla used)06:26
pittiwwoods: but in any case it's easier for us to integrate it into LP than to maintain a second system, since LP already has the users, their teams and privileges, etc.06:26
wwoodswe want something linux-specific that doesn't require extra libraries to be linked in06:27

pittiwwoods: it's in doc/, so maybe you are interested in taking a look06:28
pittiwwoods: I kept platform independence in my mind when writing this, but because I'm slightly biased :)06:28
pittiwwoods: did you get the kernel patch?06:29
pittiwwoods: it's a bit hard to tell apart the changes for the environment passing and the core limit overriding, since both use the same mechanism06:29
wwoodspitti: I did06:29
wwoodsso really it's just CORE_REAL_RLIM that tells the process what's up06:30
pittiright06:30
pittiwwoods: and the if (core_pattern[0]  == '|') { .. } bit, of course06:31
wwoodsI'll talk to the kernel dudes about this and see if they think it's sensible06:31
pittiwwoods: I'm not stuck with this particular patch, I'm happy to adapt apport to a different solution06:31
