kikoRinchen, go to bed02:07
Rinchenlol02:07
Fujitsukiko: I tried to link an upstream bug (project is gxine) this morning, but I can't add a bug watch. I suspect that is because the project is set as using Malone officially, when it in fact uses SourceForge. Can that be changed?02:09
kikoFujitsu, sure it can -- let me change it.02:10
Fujitsukiko: Thanks.02:10
Rinchenkiko, go to bed02:11
LaserJockhi kiko Fujitsu and Rinchen 02:11
kikoFujitsu, done.02:11
Fujitsukiko: Thanks.02:11
FujitsuHi LaserJock.02:11
kikoFujitsu, would you like to be able to change this sort of thing yourself?02:12
Fujitsukiko: That would be nice, if it's possible.02:12
Rinchenhi LaserJock 02:12
kikoFujitsu, I'm going to get statik to set up some code to allow a team to update products. I'll see that it's done and we'll add you to it.02:13
Fujitsukiko: Aha, thanks!02:13
kikoFujitsu, are you around here?02:14
Fujitsukiko: I wish :(02:14
FujitsuI have exams in a week, plus no way of funding a trip out there.02:14
kikoFujitsu, ah, I had hoped you would come. next time, then. wonder where it will be!02:15
LaserJockkiko: I registered a couple more projects this week :-)02:16
FujitsuI doubt I'd be sponsored, and parents probably wouldn't let me go, but we'll see.02:16
kikoLaserJock, did you? I didn't notice that! 02:16
LaserJockI did xaos02:16
LaserJockso I could add a bug tracker02:17
kikoah, very cool02:17
LaserJockmy plain is to get all the Edubuntu apps in soonish02:17
LaserJock*plan02:18
kikoLaserJock, I can probably get somebody to script you a product-creation frontend if you can find a set of freshmeat urls for them02:19
kikothat might make things easier02:19

Fujitsukiko-zzz: Isn't launchpad-experts the same as launchpad-edit-registry?02:26
kiko-zzzFujitsu, the specs? I'm not sure tbh. probably. it's a trivial thing -- most of the work is on the community side02:27

kiko-zzzis that so02:31
kiko-zzzok then02:31
mptI asked Ng to delete the file so that test subjects wouldn't be distracted by it02:31
kiko-zzzis it a test of the oops system? :)02:31
kiko-zzzah! 02:31
mptbecause nobody implemented the button to temporarily hide it in time02:31
kiko-zzzheh02:31
* mpt moves "in time" to earlier in that sentence02:31
kiko-zzzmpt, I doubt anybody even knew that was a required task :)02:31
mptIt was in the spec! Which was approved!02:32
mptSo at least Rinchen and SteveA knew :-)02:32
kiko-zzzthat's not how it works around here02:32
RinchenI heard that02:32
Rinchen:-)02:32
kiko-zzzunless it has a milestone and an assignee and I know about it02:32
kiko-zzzeither you get somebody to care about it02:32
kiko-zzzor it DOESN'T GET DONE02:32

zachtib_is ppa acting up for anyone? i uploaded a new src pkg, and amd64 built after 1hr, but i386 still has not built after 7hrs05:43
Hobbseeno, someone decided to upload a whole bunch of stuff, adn that's still building.05:46
RAOFIn particular, there's a *whole bunch* of langpacks building, and since they're arch: all and the build scheduler is awesome they all go on the i386 build queue only.05:47
zachtib_oh, that makes sense05:49
zachtib_i was wondering why there was such a difference :)05:50
Fujitsuzachtib_: The language packs took more than 48 hours to build, and the i386 buildd has almost caught up.05:59
zachtib_cool05:59
FujitsuThere are bugs filed on the fact that arch: all is only built on i386, and that there's no global PPA build queue.05:59
ajmitchHobbsee: that's still going?06:01
Hobbseeajmitch: yup06:01
daniel_kiwhoa, more than 48 hours06:05
Hobbseetry 72+06:06
daniel_kireminds me of the days when I built XFree86 on an old 38606:06
Hobbseepepole have been asking about it since at least friday, when there were 3 open office uploads.06:06
FujitsuHobbsee: The langpacks finished some hours ago.06:06
daniel_kialthough that took still less than 48 h06:06
FujitsuYeah, that OOo stuff was impressive.06:06
HobbseeFujitsu: ah nice.  so now everything else might get a chance to build.06:06
ajmitchFujitsu: quick, upload it a few more times06:06
FujitsuHobbsee: Yeah, a couple of hours ago it had just got to less than 48h behind, IIRC.06:06
Hobbseeahhh...06:07
* daniel_ki actually wondered why his small builds took half an hour, but now he thinks he has nothing to complain about, really06:08
FujitsuI was rejoicing when the final OOo build finished, thinking my mplayer would be there for testing within a few hours... then I saw the dreaded `Building language-pack-zh'06:08
Fujitsudaniel_ki: The queue-builder is dieing under the load of 15000 pending builds for Ubuntu hardy.06:09
daniel_kihow fast are the machines?06:09
FujitsuSo builds appear to be taking a lot longer than normal, whereas the actual building is the same as usual.06:09
FujitsuNo idea whatsoever.06:09
FujitsuFairly, I think.06:09
daniel_kiZen should be close to bare metal performance, right?06:09
Fujitsus/Z/X/, but yes.06:10
daniel_kier06:10
FujitsuVery close.06:10
daniel_kialthough pbuilder setup is very inefficient06:11
FujitsuThey don't use pbuilder.06:11
daniel_kiwhat do they use?06:11
FujitsuThey use a horribly mangled sbuild with a lot of extra black magic which sometimes works.06:11
daniel_kioh hm06:11
daniel_kibut it still seems to take quite a bit of time to install dependencies06:11
daniel_kiprobably hard to avoid06:12
FujitsuDoes it? Seems fairly quick to me.06:13
* daniel_ki managed to get cowdancer working on his own machine which improved things quite a bit, despite penalties on xfs06:13
daniel_kimaybe I got a wrong impression from the log viewer06:14
Fujitsudaniel_ki: What you're probably seeing is the slave-scanner (which updates the build logs, normally in real time) being shut down for extending periods.06:14
daniel_kiok06:14
Fujitsuslave-scanner won't run when queue-builder is, and queue-builder is taking many tens of minutes to run due to the large number of Ubuntu builds.06:14
HobbseeFujitsu: hardy build stuff is slowly decreasing, though06:14
daniel_kiaaah06:14
FujitsuHobbsee: Yeah, it's not taking quite as long any more, it seems.06:14
daniel_kiso most of the time doesn't go to the actual build but building the queue?06:15
FujitsuThey're independent processes.06:15
FujitsuThe queue-builder decides which builds are going to which machines and in which order, I believe.06:15
HobbseeFujitsu: 13942 to go.  they're going up again.  sigh.06:16
FujitsuHobbsee: Hah.06:16
daniel_kiok, so the machines are still saturated?06:16
Fujitsui386 passed p* earlier! Yay!06:16
Fujitsudaniel_ki: Yes.06:16
daniel_kicool06:16
HobbseeFujitsu: at times like this, it makes me wonder why they dont set the livecd/security buildds onto automatic, and build stuff faster06:20
Hobbseethen just bump the priorities of anything security-based.06:20
FujitsuHobbsee: Most security stuff is built using dak/wanna-build, not Soyuz.06:20
FujitsuThat's why they can't be on automatic, because they're running a separate system.06:20
Hobbseemaybe it's live cds, then06:20
Hobbseehttps://edge.launchpad.net/+builds06:20
FujitsuSome security stuff seems to build in Soyuz, but I'm not sure how that works.06:21
Hobbseea whole bunch of this is still idling, too06:21
FujitsuHobbsee: Right, the queue-builder is probably running, so the slave-scanner can't order them around or see what they are doing.06:21
Hobbseeheh.  ppa i386 is finally idle, too06:21
Hobbseeboth of them, actually06:21
Fujitsupromethium has been mostly idle for a couple of days.06:22
FujitsuAs it is quicker, and doesn't do arch: all.06:22
Hobbseeah, there we go06:22
Hobbseerefresh the page, and it's going06:22
FujitsuYep.06:22
* Fujitsu needs to head off to TAFE now.06:23
