lamontBenC_: with luck, I'll have -9.20 abi and module files for you shortly12:39
lamontas in, within an hour or 212:39
lamont:(12:39
=== lamont built -9.19 with -8.18 abi/module files present (which failed - hppa64 modules diffs), then dropped the -9.19 files into -9.20. should be a case of "presto"
lamontthen comes lots of figuring out with hppa64 kernels, following which I'll need  an ABI bump because we finally fixed that kernel (and can turn SMP on...)12:41

sorenGoing on holiday next week for a few week (honeymoon on Bali, no less), so I'm in a bit of a hurry to get it done by this week (ff is while I'm away).01:16
LaserJocksoren: I had a look at the screenshots at the ebox website,  very nice looking01:16

ajmitchsoren: honeymoon?01:17
sorenLaserJock: Yeah, it does look shiny, doesn't it? :)01:17
LaserJocksoren: honeymoon?!? congrats01:17
sorenajmitch: Indeed.01:17
sorenWedding on Saturday.01:17
ajmitchI never knew, I presume congrats are in order01:17
sorenLaserJock: Thank you very much.01:17
=== LaserJock never knew soren had a *real* life ;-)
ajmitchsoren: since you've travelling all the way to bali, you may as well visit NZ as well01:18
LaserJockheh01:19
LaserJockajmitch: how far is it from you?01:19
ajmitchprobably 7-8 hours or so by plane, I guess :)01:20
LaserJockhmm, that's not *too* bad01:20
ajmitchnot for this area of the world :)01:20
LaserJockconsidering darn near everything is a long flight away from NZ01:20
ajmitchah, looks like it's closer to 10, since you have to stop in australia01:21
sorenLaserJock: Nah, I keep quiet about it, too. :)01:21
sorenajmitch: When I've made it to Bali, I don't think I want to sit on a plane much more.01:21
sorenajmitch: :p01:21
ajmitchsoren: 30+ hours isn't too much of a problem, is it?01:22
sorenajmitch: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!01:22
=== ajmitch thinks too much perl has turned him crazy
bhalehi ajmitch01:23
ajmitchhello bhale01:23
ajmitchah, another server team meeting at an insane time01:24
sorenajmitch: Sorry dude, but I really hope there's not going to be another UDS in Australia or NZ anytime soon. I'd go sitting on a plane that long.01:25
sorenajmitch: I've only got about 12 hours of battery power on my laptop. That's 18 hours of staring into the back of the chair in front of me.01:25
ajmitchboston should be fairly close for you then01:25
LaserJockI read a while ago about some Australian researchers working on quantum teleportation, now I know why ...01:26
sorenajmitch: I don't really know how long it'll take to get there. 7-8 hours, I think.01:26
LaserJockprobably01:26
sorenLaserJock: Yeah. To get the fsck away from there, right now! :)01:26
LaserJockit took me about 9-10 to get to Paris/Sevilla01:27
=== ajmitch wouldn't mind seeing boston, but most likely won't be going there this year
LaserJockme neither01:27
ajmitchbusy with the phd?01:28
LaserJockyeah01:28
sorenLaserJock: That bad?01:28
LaserJockif I can sneak off for a couple days from UES I might01:28
LaserJocksoren: umm... yeah01:28
sorenLaserJock: Oh, you are doing UES at least?01:28
LaserJockI might01:28
LaserJockif it's short01:29
LaserJockin Sevilla it was just 2 days01:29
LaserJockthat wouldn't be bad01:29
sorenLaserJock: Well, if all the time you've put into Ubuntu was time you should have spent on your ph.d.... Yes, then I can definitely understand you've got some catching up to do. :)01:29
zulhey01:29
ajmitchsoren: how's the server stuff looking now?01:29
ajmitchhello zul01:29
zulhey ajmitch01:29
LaserJocksoren: yes, plus UDS is where I get sucked into implementing all kinds of crazy fun things01:31
zulheh evil01:32
sorenLaserJock: Good point, but I don't suspect UES is much better in that respect.01:32
LaserJocksoren: actually it is more corporate/marketing01:33
sorenajmitch: We're trying to get everyone up to speed. For Gutsy we're mostly polishing the existing stuff, we've got and adding a few extra things (eBox and AppArmour), but gutsy+1 is going to rock, I think.01:34
sorenLaserJock: Oh, I thought it was a development thing, just for edubuntu. Go figure.01:34
LaserJocksoren: no, it's more about educators and "decision makers"01:35
LaserJockwe still do all the hardcore development stuff at UDS01:35

=== ryu [n=chris@unaffiliated/ryu] has joined #ubuntu-devel
sorenajmitch: The server team meetings are all going to be at that time, by the way.01:48

ajmitchotherwise I'll never turn up01:48
ajmitch3AM just isn't possible when i've got to be at work at 8:30AM :)01:49
sorenajmitch: We put it there as that was the only option it it were to be within mine, kees', mathiaz' and rick's core hours.01:49

zulajmitch: its all about priorities ;)01:50
zulsoren: yeah but you probably work from home right?01:50
sorenajmitch: Although, getting to work in my case means rolling out of bed an wandering over to my laptop.01:50
ajmitchzul: right, and the server team slips far down the list with meeting times like that :)01:50
sorenzul: Indeed.01:50
ajmitchI'm not going to make much of a fuss, since I hardly do anything lately01:51
ajmitchit's hardly fair on others to shift a meeting just because 1 person is semi-interested :)01:52
sorenajmitch: There might be other geographically challenged people. :)01:52
zulaustralians? ;)01:53
sorenThose are the ones.01:53
sorenAnd kiwis.01:53
=== ajmitch shuts up about various other challenges they may have
sorenTrue. If only geography was their only issue. :)01:53

superm1hi Hobbsee. sometime back we were chatting about building mythbuntu isos in the datacentre and the discussion moved over to about meta packages.  Do you think the mythbuntu meta packages should be destined directly to universe or to main?09:18
pittiLaserJock: yeah, I think so; that should be trivial09:18

Hobbseeseb128_: Changed-By: Mario Limonciello <superm1@ubuntu.com>09:20
superm1Hobbsee, the meta package that i've got put together thus far: http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?upid=625109:20
pittiLaserJock: with the multitude of existing MIRs, with many of them being low priority or entirely forgotten about, this is sometimes necessary :)09:21
infinityHobbsee: Just realised that procps didn't include /bin/kill because of that. :(  (doesn't install kill on non-linux systems)09:21
Hobbseeseb128_:09:21
Hobbsee   * debian/gdm.templates:09:21
Hobbsee     - Fix template to point to /usr/sbin/gdm not /usr/bin. (LP: #129017)09:21

superm1No i dont :)09:21
Hobbseeseb128_: i'm presuming there was a sponsor involved.09:21
LaserJockpitti: ok thanks.09:21
seb128_Hobbsee: thanks, but I was able to read the changelog as well ;)09:21
Hobbseeseb128_: well, i was wondering :P09:21
superm1keescook uploaded it earlier today09:21
seb128_Hobbsee: yeah, that's what I'm asking, who uploaded09:21
superm1seb128_, was there something wrong with that being done?09:21
seb128_superm1: yes, desktop updates should be coordinate with the desktop team09:22
seb128_especially when the DesktopTeam TODO wiki page mention that somebody is working on the new version09:22
superm1sorry seb128_ .  Was a small fix that appeared to be an oversight09:22
seb128_yeah, there is a bunch of them09:22
seb128_and I'm going to fix them with the new version upload09:22
seb128_no problem, thanks for the work ;)09:23
superm1i'll check with you in the future if i catch small things like that first :)09:23
seb128_still, we need coordination for desktop uploads09:23
seb128_do you know who sponsored your upload?09:23
seb128_superm1: no need, the bug and patch were welcome ;)09:23
Hobbseesuperm1: http://revu.tauware.de/revu1-incoming/mythbuntu-meta-0707301215/mythbuntu-meta-0.1/update.cfg looks incorrect - does that give you ubuntu seeds, or mythbuntu seeds?09:23
superm1Hobbsee, it gives mythbuntu seeds overlaid on ubuntu ones09:24
superm1( is my understanding at least )09:24
Hobbsee....er....09:24
superm1that's why i ask someone who works with seeds to look :)09:24
pittiLaserJock: approved and promoted, thanks09:25
seb128_pitti: speaking about MIR, do you plan to look at tracker soon? ;)09:25
LaserJockpitti: way cool, thank you very much09:25

cjwatsonalesan: basically convert to 4-bit bmp then 'bmptoppm < foo.bmp | ppmtolss16 #FFFFFF=7 > foo.rle', although you'd have to look up the appropriate colour to use in place of #FFFFFF - generally the nearest one in the image to white10:55

infinityFujitsu: As a ferinstance, procps decided it didn't want to install /bin/kill... Which I was a bit nonplussed about, not because I care overly about killing things, but because half the world build-deps on procps specifically because Debian maintainers seem to be incapable of turning off autoconf's /bin/kill test.12:24

tkamppeterpitti, the magnifying glass is showing up exactly when the stup of the new queue begins and it disappears when the new queue is ready. No magnifier if now queue is needed and only enabling and disabling of queues is done. So it seems the code shown above triggers the magnifier.09:54

munckfishit then picks up on an old but not yet invalid lease11:18
munckfishbut this lease is for a network I'm not on11:18
munckfishso it pulls in the DNS server entries11:18
munckfishand splats them into11:19
munckfishresolv.conf11:19
munckfishcausing me to lose DNS11:19
munckfishyou up to speed or shall on cont.?11:19
ion_It wasnt that long, only one or two lines worth. Of course, splitting something arbitrarily to ten lines makes it long. :-)11:20
asacmunckfish: so what is the real problem?11:21
asacmunckfish: why is that network-manager fault?11:21
munckfishwell,11:21
munckfishI'm not sure it's nm's fault now11:21
munckfishI was advised to stick on NM because this was something that affected desktop operation rather than server11:22
munckfishanyway I'm beginning to think it's a problem with ifupdown11:22
munckfishI'm just not sure how development is coordinated11:22
munckfishbetween all these interrelated packages11:23
munckfishshould I reassign it under ifupdown?11:23

asacso why does dhclient time out in the first place?11:23
munckfishnot sure11:24
munckfishI looked up the docs and found the dhclient-script page desc best11:24
munckfishTIMEOUT occurs when it can't reach a dhcp server11:24
munckfishbut an existing lease is available11:24
munckfishbecause the interface is not being used of course it can't reach dhcp11:25
asacmunckfish: is that a regression?11:25
asacmunckfish: nevermind ... reporter says that its been since feisty11:26
munckfishwell, I moved from Dapper to Feisty11:26
munckfishwasn't in Dapper11:26
asacmunckfish: ok ... for me it sounds like this issue is fixed in gutsy11:26
munckfishreally?11:26
munckfishok11:26
asacnow network-manager will not restart interfaces upped by ifup11:26
munckfishwhat in particular has changed?11:26
asaci am not 100% if it fixes this issue ... but sounds like it might help11:27
munckfishhmmm, well, I managed to get the same behaviour today with herd 311:27
munckfishbut because I can't install to my hd11:27
munckfishI have to fake things a little11:27
asacherd?11:28
munckfishsorry11:28
munckfishtribe :S11:28
asaci still don't understand what the bug is11:28
asaci mean ... when dhclient times out ... what should be done instead?11:28

=== hggdh [n=hggdh@pool-71-170-39-244.dllstx.fios.verizon.net] has joined #ubuntu-devel
munckfishwell it seems to me that dhclient (started by ifupdown / networks init script)11:29
munckfishshould not be run on that interface11:29
munckfishbecause it is supposed to be marked as11:29
munckfishroaming11:29
munckfishand therefore only NM should be looking after that11:29
johanbrThe new nm/ifupdown changes seem pretty buggy generally to me. Hopefully there's still time to iron out the bugs.11:30
munckfishis there a slim chance this is a bug in the config parsing code in ifupdown?11:31
=== PriceChild [n=pricechi@ubuntu/member/pdpc.supporter.student.PriceChild] has joined #ubuntu-devel
munckfishshould ifupdown really be considering interfaces if they are marked as roaming?11:32
munckfishwell anyway, I'm happy to keep picking at this until I understand it, and I'd love to be able to submit a patch to fix it11:34
johanbrIt used to be that it (ifupdown) didn't. I'm not sure if this new behaviour is intentional.11:35
munckfishI guess the most useful thing for me would be to know what is driving the integration of these components right now, e.g. a particular blueprint11:36
johanbrmunckfish: Have you looked at the changelog for network-manager 0.6.5-0ubuntu7 ? There are some comments there that look relevant.11:38
munckfishok I'll take a look11:39
munckfishbtw, if I'm on feisty, what's the quickest way to get a source package for gutys? at the moment I'm looking for the .dsc on archive.ubuntu.com and dget-ing it from there11:40
ScottKmunckfish: I just set my deb-src lines to gutsy since I almost never want Feisty source anymore.11:41
munckfishScottK: ok I'll try that11:41
