| mgunes | Hi, I'm in need of info triaging bug #164842; I'd appreciate a comment. | 00:25 |
|---|---|---|
| ubotu | Launchpad bug 164842 in debian-installer "Live-CD boot menu: german help text contains untranslated string" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/164842 | 00:25 |
| === cjwatson_ is now known as cjwatson | ||
| cjwatson | mgunes: I don't think it needs further triaging. Just leave it alone where it is | 12:34 |
| mgunes | cjwatson, are d-i strings manually exported from LP? | 12:35 |
| cjwatson | yes | 12:35 |
| mgunes | may there have been a failure in the process with the German strings, since they seem to have been translated in Rosetta? | 12:35 |
| cjwatson | the export I have shows them as fuzzy | 12:36 |
| mgunes | fuzzy? | 12:36 |
| cjwatson | are you familiar with gettext? | 12:36 |
| mgunes | not in depth | 12:36 |
| cjwatson | become so :-) | 12:36 |
| cjwatson | fuzzy corresponds roughly to "needs review", "broken in some way", etc. | 12:37 |
| mgunes | ah, right | 12:37 |
| * mgunes checks Rosetta entries | 12:38 | |
| cjwatson | it's fine in Rosetta *now*, but probably wasn't on 5 Oct when I did the export | 12:38 |
| mgunes | actually, it's still up for review in Rosetta | 12:39 |
| cjwatson | ah | 12:40 |
| cjwatson | anyway, I've rejected the bug | 12:40 |
| cjwatson | and I'm supposed to be on holiday today so I'll go and do something else :) | 12:41 |
| cjwatson | I think a failure in the export is extraordinarily unlikely | 12:41 |
| mgunes | I think it boils down to someone outside the German translation team having done the translation | 12:43 |
| mgunes | anyway, thanks for your attention, good holidays :) | 12:43 |
| cjwatson | outside> yes, very possible | 12:46 |
| tjaalton | cjwatson: re: xorg.conf stub cleaned by livecd-rootfs; do you suggest we should fix it in the x-x.postinst? | 13:08 |
| tjaalton | I wonder why the problem was introduced in hardy, if it really is livecd-rootfs that does the cleaning | 13:14 |
| tjaalton | there's a bug in apt-setup generators/91security | 15:39 |
| tjaalton | echo "deb http://$host/ $codename/updates $dists" >> $file | 15:39 |
| tjaalton | that should not be tried on ubuntu | 15:39 |
| tjaalton | because hardy/updates is nonexistent | 15:39 |
| cjwatson | tjaalton: thanks, fixed | 15:50 |
| cjwatson | tjaalton: ask me tomorrow about xorg.conf | 15:50 |
| tjaalton | cjwatson: ok, sure | 15:50 |
| xivulon | cjwatson any objections against the following ugly lines to detect whether / is on an host device? | 19:49 |
| xivulon | loopdev=$(awk '$2=="/" && $4~"loop" {print $1}' /etc/fstab) | 19:49 |
| xivulon | hostdev=$(awk '"'${loopdev}'"~"^"$2 && $2!="/" {print $1}' /proc/mounts) | 19:49 |
| xivulon | I'll need to use the above in quite a few places | 19:49 |
| xivulon | both during installation and regular boot | 19:50 |
| evand | xivulon: you're probably better off emailing him. He's on vacation today. | 19:58 |
| xivulon | ah ok | 19:58 |
| xivulon | evand can you spot anything wrong in the above? | 19:59 |
| xivulon | basically it tries to find a mountpoint in /proc/partitions which hosts the file used to loopmount / | 19:59 |
| xivulon | should be generic enough | 20:00 |
| evand | Indeed. It looks ok to me, but best to check with cjwatson, just to be on the safe side. | 20:02 |
