Compiling an universe package, we had to change "Section: graphics" on debian/control to "Section: universe/graphics". This allow building under PPA [10:37] But after, a MOTU must have to make change back before uploading our package no ?! [10:38] mrevell: please please please get the stuff on components fixed. [10:38] (the documentation) [10:38] kagou: you dont need to change it as a MOTU, because ubuntu has archive admins and tools to force it that way [10:39] Hobbsee: I think it is fixed. At least, cprov was happy. [10:39] Let me quote you the line and then tell me what you tihnk. [10:39] mrevell: perhaps people havent read it yet. *looks for teh link* [10:39] Hobbsee, oh that's great !

[10:43] schwuk: er [10:43] schwuk: No. [10:44] mrevell: :) [10:44] schwuk: :) [10:44] mrevell: oh, hmm. i went to step 4 and looked there [10:44] schwuk: It's lovely to know you want to share a combined 13 hours of my company in a confined space. [10:44] Hobbsee: right, of course. let me change that. [10:45] mrevell: ;) what about the week and a half sharing a room? What would Mrs mrevell say? [10:45] mmm. that's better. i doubt some people will understand it, though [10:45] schwuk: I think our secret is safe. [10:46] hey, do i need to be a mod/owner of a project to be able to add a meeting? [10:48] Hobbsee: Perhaps a separate "OgreModel" page, linked to from there, would be helpful. what do you think? [10:48] mrevell: why does it even need to be called that? as in, do you need to say it's the ogre model and such? [10:49] or can you just say that, unlike ubuntu, components are not done automatically, so if you wish to build for main, you can leave the package as is, and if you wish to build for universe, you need to use section x. [10:49] really, i wouldnt mention the ogre model at all - most people dont understand components, let alone fancy terms for them. [10:51] Hobbsee: Okay, so you think "ogre model" as a name will lead to more confusion than clarification. [10:55] mrevell: well, you can do a straw poll around the core devs and MOTU if you wish - i doubt many of them will have heard of it - but will instantly understand when they consult wikipedia [10:55] and those are the ones who tend to know the most about the packaging systems. [10:56] Hobbsee: Right. Although activity in this channel suggests that a lot of the people interested in PPA aren't core devs or MOTU, so maybe the term ogre model really isn't the best to use. I need to think of a neat way to describe it. [10:57] mrevell: you assume that all the people who are using it are asking questions. i dont think this is the case. [10:58] Hobbsee: I don't make that assumption :) There are a lot of questions from people who are new to packaging, which is great, and so that guide needs to cater for them. (By the way, this is my way round about way of agreeing that "ogre model" isn't the best term to use). [10:58] this is true [10:59] and a lot of them will have some idea of revu, and maybe have submitted a package there, in which case i think saying how ubuntu is different to ppa is important. [11:00] mrevell: well, your statement seemed to make that, even if it was unintended :) [11:00] mrevell: you'll be around for the PPA/packaging talk, i take it? === pochu [n=emilio@84.Red-83-57-218.dynamicIP.rima-tde.net] has joined #launchpad [11:00] Hobbsee: Yes, absolutely!

[11:29] Hobbsee: Hi by the way ;-) [11:29] huats: right, because a ~ppaX version is lower than a normal version. you need to use an epoch on the version, or use 0.0.2~really0.0.1~ppa1 [11:31] so I increment the for ubuntu2 to ubuntu3~really2~ppa1 [11:31] ? [11:32] what's hte version number that you wanted to use originally? === snlake [n=snlake@p5B23D03C.dip.t-dialin.net] has left #launchpad [] [11:32] - 0.9.10-2ubuntu2 [11:32] that was my first build... and the cause of the pb.

[11:33] yep [11:33] I could be missing something important, but seems to me that -2ubuntu2+ppaX should work as well. [11:34] ion_: oh, good point. [11:34] sarah@LongPointyStick:~$ dpkg --compare-versions 2ubuntu2+ppaX gt 2ubuntu2 && echo true [11:34] true [11:34] so I change the ~ by a + [11:34] ?

[11:39] yep [11:39] I've seen it [11:40] thanks [11:41] huats: the version will need a normal version number to go into ubuntu. i think i misread your question [11:41] ok [11:42] ie, 2ubuntu2 [11:44] teh thing is that I can't rebuild a version 2ubuntu2 right ? so I will have to increment to 2ubuntu3 for the inclusion ? [11:45] er, can you just upload 2ubuntu2 again? [11:46] I dont think so... [11:46] if ppa's arent rejecting uploads for version numbers below what's already there... [11:46] hm [11:46] mrevell: may be you can confirm that [11:46] ?

[01:14] soren: yeppers [01:15] mwh: It turns out that Apache is actually doing the right thing... If the first line of the response is not a valid HTTP/blahblah response line, a proxy is supposed to assume that the backend is an http 0.9 server. [01:15] mwh: http 0.9 did not have headers, so it just assumes the entire response is the body. [01:15] oh, ok [01:15] soren: It looks weird, but it's actually dtrt. [01:15] Go figure :) [01:16] so how does ProxyBadRequest fit in to this? [01:16] is it just that the documentation lies about the default? [01:16] No. ProxyBadRequest does not even come into play. [01:17] ProxyBadRequest decides how to handle a malformed response. [01:17] The response i not malformed.

[04:02] == Agenda == * Roll call * Next meeting * Queue status * Branches with conflicts * Mentoring update === barry curses cut-n-paste [04:02] * Roll call [04:02] who's here today? [04:02] me [04:02] why? that was easiter to read :-) [04:02] me [04:02] me [04:02] Nafallo: :) [04:03] there are no apologies for today; salgado, SteveA, bac, intellectronica, jvt ping [04:03] me === fernando1 [i=fernando@gateway/tor/x-025659d85d0bf4d7] has joined #launchpad [04:04] * Next meeting [04:04] who is this jvt character people keep talking about [04:04] same time same place? does anybody know they won't be there? [04:04] i will be on leave [04:05] but i'm on leave all week, so that's not very exciting for meeting-scheduling reasons [04:05] okay everybody. mwhudson gets all reviews next week :) [04:05] me [04:05] me [04:06] mwh, don't forget to update the PendingReviews page to say you'll be on leave. :) [04:06] cool. if there are no objections, we'll just meet here same time and place next week [04:06] salgado: good point! [04:06] salgado: done that already :) [04:06] * Queue status [04:07] looks like we have 16 needs-reviews over the sla. is anybody blocked on anything? [04:07] me [04:07] statik: is that a roll call ack or are you blocked? [04:08] barry: delayed roll call ack. I'm late with my reviews and mentoring, but am locking myself in a hole away from IRC today to tear through them === Rinchen [n=joey@canonical/launchpad/pdpc.supporter.professional.rinchen] has joined #launchpad === cypherbios [n=cyr@ubuntu/member/cypherbios] has joined #launchpad [04:09] statik: cool, thanks. if you (or anyone) can't get through all the reviews on your queue let me know. i'm done with mine so i can take some load [04:09] I can do a few more reviews this week as I am done with mine as well [04:09] our general queue looks pretty good, just 4 unallocated branches [04:09] I will do my last one today! [04:09] although I still have one big review from mwhudson to mentor [04:10] salgado, kiko: excellent. [04:10] salgado: are you going to do a general queue assignment today? [04:10] salgado, barry: we will have to accept cprov's branches. I can help. [04:10] barry, i didn't allocate them because they were added to the review queue after the deadline, so I wanted to give some priority to the ones that went in at the right time [04:11] salgado: what about the 1.1.9 (critical)? [04:11] salgado: good point, thanks. i wonder if we need to somehow mark such post-deadline branches in the general queue? [04:11] I don't think it'd be fair for me and barry to start reviewing these while there are other pending reviews [04:11] kiko: all three of cprov's branches are for 1.1.9? [04:12] sinzui, what's that? [04:12] barry: yes, they are [04:12] salgado: cprov/launchpad/trivialities-2 says it is critical (but I do not see kiko or SteveA meantioned) [04:13] cprov: your bug-128126 branch looks very weird in pending-reviews. what's up with that? [04:13] can it be trivial and critical at the same time? [04:13] barry: I don't know I can't spot any typo [04:13] bac: It can if the change is text that really must change. [04:13] :) [04:14] i'm not mentoring so i can definitely take some review load. so if anybody is swamped and needs to unload a branch let me know. otherwise i'll start picking off the general queue today and see how many i can get through [04:15] the other late arrival is jtv's branch. anyone know more about that? [04:15] sinzui, I haven't seen that. but also I'm not sure that (critical) means reviewers should do that first even though it was added late to the review queue [04:16] sinzui: you did a pre-impl call with jtv about that. is that a critical 1.1.9 fix? [04:16] no, that problem is 18 months old [04:17] sinzui: okay thanks. i'll work on cprov's first then [04:17] any other queue related status? [04:18] 5 [04:18] 4 [04:18] 3 [04:18] 2 [04:18] 1 [04:18] * Branches with conflicts [04:19] i just wanted to mention something that i've noticed and see what y'all think about it. it's inevitable that some branches get into conflict by the time you start to review them. i've had very mixed success trying to review and test conflicted branches. often if it's not a trivial fix or in current.sql, i'll just bounce the review immediately [04:20] with an email to the author to please resolve their conflicts before i can finish the review [04:20] i'm wondering 1) has anybody else had problems like this; 2) does our process need to account for this situation? [04:21] we could change jamesh's pending-reviews script to send these notifications when they found conflicts [04:21] s/they/it/ [04:21] ime, most of the conflicts are trivial, it's not often that i have to wait for someone to resolve the conflicts. [04:21] salgado: only for needs-review branches probably [04:21] but i do agree that the pending-reviews script should be sending notifications (not only for conflicts) [04:21] barry: if the conflict is easy to resolve i've tried. other times when it was more involved i bounced it [04:22] BjornT: do you typically fix the conflict before you start your review? [04:22] bac: that's what i do too, but i don't think it's a reviewer's responsibility. think of it as a favor :) i usually won't spend much time trying to resolve them either (maybe 5 - 10 minutes tops) [04:23] if the review is really trivial I only point it during the review. otherwise I bounce to the author asking for the conflict to be resolved [04:23] barry: no. i usally point out the conflict in the review, but nothing else. often it's obvious how the reviewee will resolve the conflicts, so there's no point in blocking on that. [04:23] i ask because often the conflict will prevent you from running the test or the demo url, which i always try to do [04:23] so to run the test or demo, you have to resolve the conflict or bounce it and let the author fix it [04:24] barry: no it won't. i usually get the branch, rather than trying to merge it. [04:24] BjornT: good point [04:24] BjornT: i think getting the branch though will not let 'make lint' do it's job [04:24] (because lint.sh only looks at uncommitted changes) [04:25] barry: I noticed the same thing. I think the fix here is to be able to tell make lint to run over files which have changed in particular revisions [04:25] barry: yes, that's true. we should add a command for checking all files that have been changed compared to a parent branch. [04:25] even better [04:26] New bug: #139126 in soyuz "queue override does not really accept multiple packages" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/139126 [04:26] BjornT: good idea. that would also make the command more useful to authors. i know /i/ typically don't run lint until my branch has several commits (or maybe just before i submit the branch). by that time, with current lint.sh, you get no errors by default [04:26] barry: It does take much to make lint check all the files. === sinzui does it all the time [04:27] sinzui: only downside is that you might get lots of errors not related to code your branch touches === barry isn't sure what the state of lint.sh over the entire code base is [04:27] barry: I haven't experience that in 6 months [04:27] isn't there a bug for the pending-reviews script to run "make lint"? === AlinuxOS [n=vsichi@host57-130-dynamic.1-87-r.retail.telecomitalia.it] has joined #launchpad [04:28] that won't work for conflicted branches, though [04:28] bug 113626 i think [04:28] Launchpad bug 113626 in launchpad "pending-reviews should run and display the output of make lint" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/113626 [04:29] cool. let's see if we can get someone to look at that. sounds like we have some good strategies for dealing with conflicted branches and don't need any additional policy [04:29] anything else? [04:29] 5 [04:29] 4 [04:30] 3 [04:30] 2 [04:30] 1 [04:30] * Mentoring update [04:30] so, mentors and mentorees, how's it going? any issues or questions? [04:31] it's going fine for me [04:31] i wasn't scrambling to get any difficult branches of my own into 1.1.9 though, which has to help [04:31] i've mentored one review for intellectronica and he'd done a good job [04:31] the process of being mentored isn't documented at all clearly [04:31] Is there a standard rule for when the mentor does his review? [04:32] sinzui: no [04:32] it's all good. i'm getting ready to send a review for my second (and rather big) branch later today. getting very useful tips from bac [04:32] statik: I ask because I think mpt is going on vacation and I think he needs a review. [04:32] like: are trainee reviewers allowed to set reviews to merge-approved ? [04:32] mwhudson: yep. it's probably not documented at all! i'll see if i can write up my thoughts on the reviewers tips page [04:33] barry: that would be good [04:33] sinzui: that review is fine, I read through it yesterday and should have sent a mail last night so mpt could land. sending it now [04:33] sinzui: if your mentor goes on leave, you should round up a backup mentor. be proactive. === sinzui eye's abrry === barry eyes abrry too! === sinzui needs more coffee and to type slower [04:33] :) [04:34] sinzui: yes, i can help once mpt disappears [04:34] anything else? [04:34] barry: statik is the reviewer, mpt is the reviewee [04:35] sinzui: barry is going to make lots of UI changes in mpt's absence. :) [04:35] hehe === barry emits a sinister laugh === sinzui looks forward to the return of the blink tag === Nafallo fears sinzui [04:36] i just wanted to say thanks to everyone for working so hard and so well on reviews. we're managing a big influx of reviewers and i really appreciate all the mentor efforts to make this go smoothly! [04:36] if there's nothing else... [04:36] 5 [04:36] 4 [04:36] 3 [04:37] 2 [04:37] 1 [04:37] MEETING ENDS [04:37] thanks barry [04:37] barry: when does mpt disappear? [04:37] thanks everyone! === mwhudson finally has lunch [04:37] sinzui: just noticed you have a branch in your queue marked needs-conditional, I assume that is merge-conditional? [04:37] Hobbsee: i don't honestly know [04:37] Hobbsee: Friday I think [04:37] right, OK === Hobbsee wants to whine about $herpetbug not being fixed before then [04:38] statik: I'll drink more coffee and type slower === barry goes off to type up the meeting minutes === deadwill [n=deadwill@146037.fln.virtua.com.br] has joined #launchpad [04:45] New bug: #139132 in soyuz "Extra-Overrides support for NoMoreAptFtpArchive infrastructure" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/139132 [04:45] New bug: #139133 in malone "externalbugtracker.get_external_bug_tracker needs to be refactored" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/139133 === xhaker [n=xhaker@di19.di.fct.unl.pt] has joined #launchpad [04:55] New bug: #139135 in soyuz ""atomic-dists-change" support for NoMoreAptFtpArchive" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/139135 [04:56] New bug: #139136 in soyuz "NoMoreAptFtpArchive infrastructure needs to generate bzip2 indexes as well" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/139136 === mthaddon [n=mthaddon@canonical/launchpad/mthaddon] has joined #launchpad === dorto [n=dorto@220.226.151.84] has joined #launchpad === sinzui [n=sinzui@pool-70-17-91-59.res.east.verizon.net] has left #launchpad [] === doko [n=doko@dslb-088-073-105-068.pools.arcor-ip.net] has joined #launchpad === Yeah [n=ohboy@c-24-6-9-246.hsd1.ca.comcast.net] has joined #launchpad === schwuk [n=dave@ubuntu/member/schwuk] has joined #launchpad [05:19] oooh [05:19] btw, the search box on help.launchpad.net is working now [05:20] yes! mdke!
