mathiazlet's move on to the next topic05:32
mathiaz[TOPIC]  use of backports for samba05:32
MootBotNew Topic:  use of backports for samba05:32
mathiazI had a discussion with the ScottK about using -backports to publish the latest of samba05:32
ScottKThe sanity threshold for -backports is pretty low, so it should be doable with a little effort.05:33
mathiazevery now and then, bugs are filed to ask to upgrade to the latest version of samba, mysql, etc... for dapper especially.05:33
ivoksi agree05:33
mathiazso I tought we may use dapper-backports to address this issue.05:34
mathiazI think it could also be used to see how LTS upgrade would work.05:34
sorenIs there a description somewhere of how to make sure you only get a particular subset of packages from the backports repository?05:34
sorenIt's *very* likely that anyone who wants the samba packages don't want all the other crack in there.05:35
mathiazsoren: can pinning be used for that in the apt configuration ?05:35
sorenmathiaz: Yes.05:35
sorenI'm just not sure if that is described properly somewhere.05:35
ivokssoren: or oposite, some one who uses backports just for clamav, maybe doesn't want samba too05:35
mathiazScottK: is there some documentation about pinning and -backports ?05:36
sorenIf we advice our dapper users to switch on backports, we'll get an entirely different sort of problems. It needs to be easy to just use a certain set of packages from backports.05:36
nealmcbsounds like it could get complicated and lead to confusion - how many packages would be related to e.g. a samba backport?05:36
mathiaznealmcb: well - all the binary packages built from the samba source package.05:37
=== Gargoyle [n=gargoyle@pdpc/supporter/student/Gargoyle] has left #ubuntu-meeting ["Leaving"]
nealmcbbut any dependencies on others?05:37
mathiazMoreover, -backport is not officialy supported.05:37
ivoksnothing from server world05:37
=== nealmcb just hasn't used backports much....
jdstrandalong nealmcb line of thinking, what kind of testing/support will we have for libraries that might be brought and used by other packages (that may break as a result)?05:37
ScottKmathiaz: Not that I know.  I don't recommend people leave it enabled.  Just get in, get what they need, and get out.05:38
lionelwell, we have to be prepared to some confusion. People are not aware that backports are not supported, they have no security updates, etc.05:38
mathiaznealmcb: we can only use -backports if the package doesn't require new dependencies.05:38
jdstrands/might be brought/might be brought in by the backport/05:38
ScottKmathiaz: Or we can backport the dependencies if it's reasonable.  It's particularly easy if the depens are New packages so there's no integration risk.05:38
sorenI'm thinking... What is the use case for this?05:39
mathiazsoren: samba doesn'T support vista client in dapper.05:39
ivoksimho, samba should be officialy backported (to updates) only if there is a strong reason, and for those who can live with unsupported samba, i agree that it could go to -backports05:40
mathiazsoren: please upgrade to 3.0.26b so my dapper server works with vista client05:40
sorenmathiaz: That's a serious bug, wouldn't you say?05:40
mathiazsoren: yes. But it would be very hard to get it through an SRU05:40
sorenmathiaz: Yes. Hard, but correct.05:40
mathiazsoren: as it would involved a lot of patches.05:40
sorenmathiaz: I agree.05:40
sorenI definitely see the problem, but the feeling that going through -backports is wrong gets stronger and stronger.05:41
nealmcbahhh - do folks want 3.5 more years of hassles about that in dapper.  sigh....05:41
sorenWe're considering using backports to accomplish something -updates is meant to accomplish.05:42
mathiazsoren: yes. that's true.05:42
nealmcbin 7 months we can point them to hardy, but ....05:43
mathiazsoren: it's also connect to the MicroReleaseException.05:43
sorennealmcb: We'll still be supporting Dapper, though.05:43
nealmcbexactly05:43
=== keescook [n=kees@ubuntu/member/keescook] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
mathiazsoren: it seems to me that for some case (such as samba), getting through -updates can involve much more work that publishing it in -backport.05:44
sorenmathiaz: Unfortunately, I'm not convinced Samba is as thorough w.r.t. to regression testing as we might want it to be.05:44
nealmcbwhich leads me to ask what the risks of just fixing it in dapper are.  and I guess how often this will crop up in the future.  damn non-standardized protocols....05:44
ivoksthis already happend with MacOSX05:44
ivoksand now Vista05:45
sorenmathiaz: I agree. I'm just trying to take a step back and look at the problem rather than focus on one proposed solution and just discuss the mechanics of that.05:45
ivoksit will probably happend again with Vista SP205:45
mathiazsoren: yes. I see your point.05:45
sorenIt might turn out that -backports is the way to go, but I can't help but feel that the discussion has been shortcircuited at some poit.05:46
mathiazit seems that there is a category of software that won't fall in the MicroReleaseException, but that still need to be updated in an LTS05:46
sorenpoint.05:46
=== ScottK agrees it's better to go in -updates if it can be patched.
=== nealmcb nods
sorenThe problem is that Samba in Dapper doesn't work with a large fraction of the Windows systems out there.05:46
jdstrandmathiaz, soren: I just went through a review of mysql for MicroReleaseException, but there needs to be good testing and no incompatible changes05:47
=== ScottK also thinks "Use backports" should never be an official recommendation. More like, well, if you really want the latest crack, it's in dapper-backports, but it's not supported.
jdstrandI don't know if samba would meet that criteria05:47
mathiazScottK: agreed. But sometimes patching is really hard - see the mysql problem.05:47
ScottKSure.05:47
sorenThis is a serious issue which any Dapper samba user is likely to want fixed at some point.05:48
mathiazjdstrand: I don't know either. I think samba has a test suite. But they still tend to introduce new feature and incomptible changes.05:48
jdstrandsoren: you are correct.  But they are also going to want a *supported* samba05:48
=== Lure [n=lure@89.212.183.108] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
jdstrandI am not sure backports is the answer cause it won't be officially supported05:48
ivoksmathiaz: quite often05:48
sorenIt's a slippery slope to just put it in backports and say to our users that they should stop bitching about borken samba because they can just use whatever's in -backports. -backports is unsupported, and the reason we put it in there instead of -updates is because we're not convinced it won't cause regressions.05:49
jdstrandsoren: exactly05:49
=== nairov [n=n@ubuntu/member/pdpc.supporter.active.Vorian] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
jdstrandI think LTS customers in particular want supported packages05:49
Davieysamba being a crucial server app, really should have the option of known stable and latest (supported!) version - especially on an LTS release05:49
=== jdstrand promoted LTS for that reason
ScottKJust for reference, current Postfix is available in dapper-backports.05:49
sorenScottK: It provides new features, right?05:50
ScottKsoren: Yes.  Many.05:50
soren"Is not broken" is not a feature. :)05:50
=== Lure [n=lure@ubuntu/member/lure] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
nealmcbbut the current postfix is less broken than samba?05:51
ScottKPostfix in Dapper is not broken, but it's, umm, carefully designed.05:51
ivokswhere that came from? broken, how? :D05:51
ScottKIt's not.05:51
sorenScottK: Ah, that's not what I meant.05:51
ScottKPostfix 2.2.10 is perfectly fine if you don't need newer features.05:52
jdstrandkeescook: would probably slap me for saying this, but (and I am just brainstorming here) would it be possible to package the new version in 'updates', but that wouldn't be an upgrade, but rather a separate package that conflicted with samba in Dapper (obviously, a lot of packaging issues would have to be resolved, but it would give the LTS users a real choice)05:52
ivoksinteresting idea05:52
sorenI mean that Samba in Dapper is broken (since it doesn't support a lot of the clients it's meant to serve). -backports is for new features, and "Is not able to do what it's supposed to" is not a feature in that respect.05:52
=== lamont vomits on keescook's behalf
=== keescook also vomits. ;)
=== jdstrand isn't thrilled by supported 2 sambas either
keescookjdstrand: the -updates and -security pockets need to stay "clean", unfortunately.05:53
jdstrandsupporting05:53
lamonteither it's broken and needs to be fixed, or it's not sufficiently broken and it doesn't change05:53
keescookthis is a problem that should be solved somehow, though.  we run into it with clamav too.05:53
sorenlamont: Well said.05:53
jdstrandI just feel that the pockets aren't serving LTS server's needs05:53
jdstrandexisting pckets that is05:53
=== jdstrand is still miffed about mysql
sorenThe only reason they feel insufficient is because Samba is a scary monster.05:54
nealmcbthe underlying problem is trying to be compatible with a moving target which many users regard as the definition of what it means for samba to be "working" vs "broken"....05:54
ScottKClamav is even worse because due to API changes I can't even backport the current clamav to Dapper.05:54
jdstrandmysql is bad boy too05:54
nealmcband they are the major use case for samba in the first place05:54
=== Daviey agrees that 'backports' for core server apps need to be supported on LTS
lamont"I want LTS and the latest $FOO" is a evidence of a conflicted mind.05:54
keescookScottK: right, would be nice to have a volatile or something similar.05:54
=== ScottK agrees.
jdstrandlamont: not when you can't backport security updates05:54
ScottKjdstrand: Sure you can.  Just someone has to do them.05:55
jdstrandScottK: not with mysql developers05:55
nealmcb5 minutes to CC meeting....05:55
jdstrandwitout mysql developers05:55
sorenlamont: True that, but I consider it a perfectly valid use case to have LTS on one's servers and something slightly newer (Vista) on one's desktops.05:55
=== jdstrand hrmm
ivoksnealmcb: that's 18:00 utc05:55
jdstrands/witout/without/05:56
lamontjdstrand: you can always backport security updates... the question is does that mean adding the fix as a patch in the old version, shoving the new version with all that risk and possibly new features back into the release, or some combination of the two....05:56
Davieylamont: conflicting how?  An admin worth their salt uses an LTS server version IMO - is it unreasonable for them to want the latest stable samba to be supported and backported?05:56
ScottKIt's a similar situation, I think, to the LTS kernel's problem with dealing with new hardware.05:56
sorenOne of the major blockers of this problem is that we don't have anyone who is familiar enough with samba code and the protocols involved to identify the bug fixes and handle the updates properly.05:56
jdstrandScottK: they redesigned large protions of code in a *stable* release that cannot be backported.  Unfortunely those changes were incompatible with earlier versions05:57
jdstrandin the stable release that is05:57
nealmcbivoks: man - I have really gotten that one confused - I guess by earlier conversation about another meeting - thanks05:57
ScottKRight.  So if you backport once from the current release, you just keep backporting newer stuff as it comes out.05:57
jdstrandlamont: while I agree with you in theory, that doesn't always work.  You end up with a 'wont fix' situation sometimes05:58

nealmcbwere we done?  any action items re samba?06:05
mathiaznealmcb: not really I think.06:05
ivoksdowngrad to universe :/06:05

soren:p06:05
nealmcblol06:05
nijaba22:00 UTC seemed to be convenient for most every other tuesday.  Is that ok for next week ?06:06
mathiazI think -backport can always be used...06:06
ScottKnealmcb: mathiaz is going to fix it.06:06
ScottKThat was the action.06:06
mathiazThe question is whether -updates should shipped the newest version of samba or not.06:06
sorenmathiaz: Well, yes, -backports can be used, but we still need to handle the issues via -updates as well.06:07
mathiazsoren: yes.06:07
mathiazI've started to build 3.0.26 for dapper and it seems to work os far.06:07
ivokstoo bad samba team doesn't have stable releases :/06:08
nealmcbif we can't resolve it now, I'm just wondering what a next step would be - connect with samba team?  write up a wiki page about the issue?  tell users to run the latest ubuntu non-lts on their file servers??06:08
mathiazI'll probably submit it to -backport.06:08
sorennealmcb: There will be participation by the Samba team at FOSSCamp.06:08
nealmcband more testing can happen that way at least...06:09
nealmcbsoren: nice06:09
mathiazSo what about the next meeting date and time ?06:10
mathiazDo we need another meeting next week before the release ?06:10

popeyWe get a lot of positive feedback in comments on the site, and I get quite a bit of personal email from people both asking technical questions, but also just saying "thanks". Notably I've had a few that have said they were concerned about running Ubuntu but after seeing the screecast their doubts were quashed. Which is a really nice feeling!08:25
=== Seveas the screencasts team
nealmcbit should happen soon at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/USTeams/TeamList08:25
popeyHaving a policy of "eating our own dogfood" is important because it shows we _can_ produce quality videos (I hope) on Linux just like Windows and Mac people do with the aid of their wallets, and loss of freedom of course :).08:25

=== Pici [n=Pici@unaffiliated/pici] has joined #ubuntu-meeting
popeyMaking the decision to make screencasts in HD720p was hard as it requires quite a bit of computing power, disk space and eats bandwidth every time we upload a video - and we do that in 6 formats!08:26
popeyWe'd like to progress the spec of "Screencasts in Ubuntu" to the point where it's ubiquitous to just click an icon in an app and get a video showing you how to do what you want.08:26
popeyFurther to that we'd like to make it _real_ easy to make and submit screencasts to that project. At the moment whilst there are easy to use apps like istanbul et al, there are still technical challenges that need ironing.08:26
popey<EOF>08:26
leftyfbI find those screencasts VERY helpful. We're actually going to be having them run in a playlist on a projector at our installfest this Saturday08:27
mdkepopey: do you have thoughts on how "screencasts in ubuntu" can relate and be integrated with documentation?08:27
Seveaspopey, whenever you are in NL and in need of beer, call me :)08:27
sabdflamazing - who will be in Boston to champion this? It's very classy thinking, but it would help if we made the whole team more aware of it08:27

popeyor just google ubuntu screencasts - we take up the whole first page pretty much08:28
sabdflpopey: have you had any conversations with the ubuntu marketing team, and canonical marketing, about the Month of Screencasts? I think we should push for radical awareness and publicity of this superb work08:28
popeymdke: wilco08:28
popeyit was mentioned on the fridge08:28

tonyyarussoI had written on the -marketing ML recently about integrating various projects, including the screencasts, and popey has been most involved with keeping track of other teams and inserting info about the screencasts as appropriate of the projects I mentioned.08:30
popeyyeah, "screencasts" is a kinda highligh/trigger word for me08:30
popeyI home in on anyone who says it anywhere, in any medium :)08:31

popeyI'm pretty much the only one who makes them regularly :S08:32
popeywe have had contributions for which I am majorly happy!08:32
sabdflhow straightforward is the process of making one?08:32
popeyi think at least in part one of the problems is the high standards I like to think i have08:32
OgMacielpopey: any integration with other doc teams to create i18n versions?08:32
sabdflis the a screencast-on-making-screencasts?08:32
popeysabdfl: not as easy as it could be08:32
popeyhehehe08:32
maccam94popey: are there clear guidelines for creating a screencast? I'd be interested in contributing...08:33
popeyI am so glad you asked that sabdfl08:33
popeysabdfl: no, but I have it on my to-do to make one08:33
mdkesabdfl: see their roadmap ;)08:33

popeythanks Seveas, will do08:36
mdkesabdfl: well, I mean there is no wiki page detailing requirements as there is for locoteams; and there are no advantages of being approved, as there are for locoteams08:36
sabdflok, +1 from me for the team, even though it still needs broadening out as a team08:36
popeyI already have canonical hosting08:36
popeyso it's not like I'll get that :)08:36
mdkebut we approved the mythtv team, and ubuntu-women I guess08:36
sabdflpopey has done lots of teamwork and i have every confidence he will grow the team well08:37
popeysabdfl: willing to take input from all on how to achive that08:37

makoi'm going to abstain. i like popey's work but i don't like creating official structures before the team and if it's only one person making screencasts, i have a hard time calling it a team08:40
popeyI totally understand08:40
mdkeI'm slightly uncomfortable about approving without a process, because i know a lot of other teams around the community that would probably apply too08:41
elmoI feel a bit weird about +1-ing a one man team too, but I mean no disrespect to popey or the work he's done08:41
mdkebut definitely +1 about popey's work and the team structures08:41
popeywell technically it's not one man08:41
popeywe have one person doing transcription08:41
MikeB+1 here, because I think a offical team may encourge more people to participate08:41
popeypeople from various locos doing translation08:41
popeybut yes, I actually make most of the screencasts, yes08:41
popeythin line08:41
sabdfli think mikeb has a good point08:42
sabdflmaking the team official may well encourage people to step up08:42
OgMacielpopey: maybe you didn't see this, but... any integration with other doc teams to create i18n versions?08:42
popeyI'll work on the "how to screencast, screencast" as a priority08:42
BartyCan screencasts be recorded as a team? A does the video, B gives voice-over?08:42
popeyi didn't OgMaciel08:43
OgMacielno worries popey08:43

sabdflright08:44
popeywe have already made 16 of them08:44
sabdflwell, nonetheless08:44
MrEgg964I'm sure having a plan / script laid out would help and encourage making screencast08:45
popeybut as we are a small team, the workload is high08:45
popeyso we have overrun08:45
popeyMrEgg964: agree08:45
sabdflit seems to me no hassle for the CC to approve the team, but i suppose we could also just say "We all think Popey's work rocks and want to encourage folks to join him and do more of this"08:45
mdkeI'll definitely support that :)08:46
popeyfine by me :)08:46
Seveassabdfl, I think promotion like that (on your blog for instance) will have more effect than making the team official, which will be noticed by much less people many of whom already know about the screencasts08:46
popeysorry to have taken up so much time08:46
mdkepopey: you could get jono to blog about it too :D08:47

totopalmaActually lots of people in Italy don't have a DSL Internet connection, they are still stuck on dial-up and they can't download Ubuntu's ISOs. There's shipit service, but sometimes CDs are not available or arrive a little late. In this way we can distribute CDs locally in shorter time.08:49
totopalmaPeople send us the blank CD and we burn one of Ubuntu's ISO on it, the user could choose wich version we should burn.08:49
totopalmaThe main things this group takes care of is promoting ubuntu in the whole italy trying to fix the bug #1 every single minute, hour or day.08:49

Hattoryo/08:56
HattoryHello, my name is Paolo Naldini, I'm 16 and I live in Italy ( https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NaldiniPaolo ).08:56
HattoryI joined Ubuntu on Februray 2006 with Ubuntu 5.10 "The Breezy Badger" where I began to give support to the Italian Forum of Ubuntu. After that I tried to help in other support channels too.08:56
twilightops, i'm late...my support is not needed... but, totopalma, congratulation :)08:56
HattoryAfter about a year, I obtained Ubuntu Italian membership.08:56
HattoryAt the moment I focus on the translations in Rosetta and on the Italian wiki. The universe of "packaging" has always fascinated me but I don't have enough time to make all these things at the same time (I also attend high school :D ), let's see what will be in the future.08:56
HattoryIn my wiki home page it's possible to see some of my translations made for Italian wiki, you will be able to find other translations in my launchpad account (https://launchpad.net/~hattory/).08:56

DktrKranzPaolo is young, but he's pretty involved in Ubuntu. He recently started to poke with answer tracker and Rosetta in Launchpad, but his interests do not stop here: he provided a lot of help on the Italian forum and IRC chans. A very talented guy.08:57
mdkesabdfl, mdz, mjg59 : can the two meetings run simultaneously? We could carry on dealing with membership applications maybe08:57
makoSeveas: sorry, got called away.. will read the backlog08:57
sabdflmdke: not easy08:57
Seveasmako, np, you said you were in another meeting :)08:57
sabdflTB agenda is... short?08:57
mdkeI'll support Hattory too, I've seen him doing lots of good work in the community, although I don't know him as well as totopalma, he gets my support08:57
mdkegood wiki page too08:57
Hattorythanks mdke ;)08:58
bluekujaPaolo is an active member of the italian community and he's doing a great work for the italian wiki translating all the MOTU section. So I fully support his application! Rock on Paolo!08:58
Seveassabdfl, tb agenda is 'Other business' and 'update agenda' -- possibly very short :)08:58
sabdfli saw08:58
Hattorybluekuja, thanks bro :D08:58
mdz_sabdfl: I think the only issue for TB is delegation of MOTU membership08:58
sabdfli think there's a discussion we could have about letting MC approve new MOTU's directly08:58
sabdfland also about having TB officially nominate new MC members08:59
bluekujaHattory: :)08:59
sabdfl(MC == MOTU Council)08:59
sabdflthose are sort of CC-ish anyhow08:59
Seveasindeed08:59
sabdfland should be short08:59
sabdflsince TB is mainly focused on the release08:59
Seveasbut can we please finish Hattory's application first - I'm seeing many cheers and good things08:59

mdz_CC finished?09:07
Seveassabdfl, how are you judging sustained? LP karma summary doesn't really go back beyond a few dozen of the 2683 items so it's hard to track that09:07
sabdflno, i thought we could have those 2 TB conversations, then come back to TB09:07
sabdflkarma value != # contributions09:07
mdkewe certainly shouldn't use LP karma as the only basis to judge contribution09:07

OgMacielAfter a very successful 18 months as the leader for the Ubuntu Brazilian Portuguese Translators Team, I decided to step down so someone else could have a chance to perform this task. I also decided to dedicate whatever time I had free to translate directly with the GNOME, XFCE, and KDE upstream teams.09:30
OgMacielRecently became a GNOME Foundation member, leader for the XFCE Brazilian Portuguese Translators Team, helped release a 100% translated GNOME Desktop for the last two release cycles, became a developer for Foresight Linux and saw my free time cut down dramatically due to the events already mentioned. :)09:30

DPicI started using linux with Ubuntu 6.10 Edgy Eft and i have been more and more involved ever since. I have been most involved with wiki work. I did a big portion of the work on the Ubuntu-MA LoCo Team Wiki https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MassachusettsTeam including restructuring the entire wiki to make it more efficient for new visitors not familiar with the group.
