| pitti | seb128: wow | 08:52 |
| pitti | asac: :) (for guaranteeing broken UIs we have a lot more options) | 08:52 |
| asac | pitti: 1. we make a tight maxVersion in the install.rdf of the language packs | 08:52 |
| pitti | hey cjwatson | 08:52 |
| asac | pitti: 2. we make tight dependencies on xulrunner-1.9 and firefox ... | 08:53 |

| pitti | asac: erm, dependencies in the langpacks? | 08:53 |
| pitti | no, that's not an option | 08:53 |
| pitti | we don't want to force people to install firefox | 08:53 |

| Fujitsu | \sh: Wouldn't that be adduser being called in the postinst? | 10:46 |

| cjwatson | \sh: maintainer scripts at least used to use su to execute stuff as other users in various places; changing the shell to false will break anything that does that | 11:03 |
| \sh | cjwatson, well, regarding www-data e.g. this is an account which is set as chown parameter but I don't know any app which runs or execute scripts as www-data...I think we need to verify those settings and changing them when there is no need for /bin/sh by default | 11:05 |
| \sh | cyrus user is e.g. a different issue... | 11:05 |
| \sh | but this user is set when installing the package actually | 11:05 |
| \sh | (scripts == maintainer scripts ;)) | 11:06 |
| cjwatson | there certainly used to be maintainer scripts that dropped to some of the other users in passwd.master that ought to be /bin/false | 11:06 |

| MacSlow | tseliot, "Error: Could not acquire compositing manager selection on screen 0 display :0.0", which is odd because it used to work and there's hardly any change I did to my system... it cretainly worked with compiz 0.7.x | 11:26 |
| emgent | \sh: hehehe :) | 11:26 |
| YokoZar | pitti: Could you upload a new version of ia32-libs for me that adds libasound2-plugins (bug #182731) ? | 11:29 |
| YokoZar | pitti: going through the debdiff/freeze exception process at this point would be difficult for ia32-libs :( | 11:29 |
| \sh | YokoZar, I think a spoken "yes, please do" from motu-release is enough ... motu-release can add the acks afterwards to the papers | 11:30 |
| pitti | YokoZar: please get approval from motu-release for that, though | 11:30 |
| pitti | YokoZar: right, debdiff is pretty pointless for ia32-libs | 11:30 |

| munckfish | cjwatson: got a mo? | 12:25 |
| cjwatson | munckfish: yep | 12:25 |
| munckfish | cjwatson: sorry, I'm at work at the mo, I can look at kboot at lunch | 12:26 |
| munckfish | did you guys get any further idea what was going wrong? | 12:26 |
| cjwatson | my mails have the most recent information I have | 12:26 |
| cjwatson | Adam's in .au so probably hasn't seen them yet | 12:26 |
| cjwatson | err, no he's not, he's in .ca, sorry | 12:26 |
| cjwatson | but still | 12:26 |
| Keybuk | mvo: so, err, how did we manage to get two files owning the same conffile? | 12:27 |
| Keybuk | two packages, I should say | 12:27 |
| munckfish | cjwatson: ok understood | 12:28 |
| munckfish | cjwatson: I think we need to agree some sort of goal for this first Hardy release | 12:28 |
| munckfish | at the moment I'm guessing it would be get X working | 12:28 |
| munckfish | and no more | 12:28 |
| munckfish | I looked at the PS3 specific stuff in the repo | 12:29 |
| munckfish | I think most of it could be done with back ports | 12:29 |
| munckfish | what do you think? | 12:29 |
| munckfish | If we can't get X fixed, or if we discover some other complete show stopper | 12:29 |
| munckfish | would should we do then? | 12:29 |
| munckfish | delay PS3 on Hardy? | 12:30 |
| munckfish | or just not release it at all? | 12:30 |
| cjwatson | munckfish: not release it, and defer to 8.04.1 | 12:30 |
| cjwatson | munckfish: this is a *nuclear option* and a bad idea | 12:30 |
| munckfish | cjwatson: I don't understand that sorry | 12:31 |
| munckfish | nuclear option? | 12:31 |
| cjwatson | last resort | 12:31 |
| munckfish | yes it would be a big shame | 12:31 |
| cjwatson | I agree that the best plan is to concentrate on what is absolutely required; don't worry about fripperies | 12:31 |
| munckfish | what about the back ports situ though? | 12:32 |
| cjwatson | forget about it for now | 12:32 |
| munckfish | right fare enough | 12:32 |
| munckfish | *fair | 12:32 |
| cjwatson | later, maybe, but it's not worth the distraction of considering it | 12:32 |
| munckfish | hmmm spelling | 12:32 |
| munckfish | yep | 12:32 |
| munckfish | ok | 12:32 |
| munckfish | well the X null pointer I have | 12:32 |
| munckfish | didn't get time to grab the trace | 12:32 |
| munckfish | but from what I remember | 12:33 |
| munckfish | it was in the some function called | 12:33 |
| munckfish | selectDriver or chooseDriver or similar | 12:33 |
| munckfish | I have the X log | 12:33 |
| munckfish | I'll open a LP report at lunchtime | 12:33 |
| munckfish | ps3fb did seem to be loaded in the kernel ok as far as I could see | 12:33 |
| \sh | you are talking about PS3 as in "sony" ? :) | 12:34 |
| munckfish | \sh: yes | 12:36 |
| \sh | munckfish, sounds like I need to convince my future wife to buy such a gadget then ;) | 12:36 |
| munckfish | \sh: it's a very very cool device | 12:37 |
| munckfish | I have a supercomputer in my lounge! | 12:37 |
| \sh | :)) | 12:37 |
| munckfish | Our port project needs some care and attention though | 12:38 |
| munckfish | \sh: if you get one jump on ubuntu-cell@lists.ubuntu.com to follow progress | 12:39 |
| \sh | munckfish, hmm...but still usable as "playstation"? or is it then my next generation build server/webserver? :) | 12:40 |
| munckfish | no still usable for games | 12:41 |
| munckfish | the only compromise is | 12:41 |
| munckfish | you can ever have 10GB for linux and the rest for sony | 12:41 |
| munckfish | or vice versa | 12:41 |
| munckfish | s/ever/only/ | 12:41 |
| munckfish | and with only 256MB of RAM, I guess we could do some optimisation at some point along the way | 12:43 |
| munckfish | but the cell chip is cool, I can't wait to start exploring it's potential. Which is something I think the guys on #ps3dev are already quite far ahead on | 12:49 |
| munckfish | some of those guys are working on some interesting projects | 12:49 |

| ogra | cody-somerville, coud you take a look at the last three comments on bug 214481 ? | 13:08 |
| ubotu | Launchpad bug 214481 in ltsp "[hardy] ltsp-build-client builds incomplete filesystem" [Undecided,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/214481 | 13:08 |
| ogra | (not sure you still build ltsp on the alternate iso) | 13:08 |
| cody-somerville | ogra, certainly | 13:08 |
| Keybuk | ok, so channel-wide question -- does anyone else have *two* answers for grep rcS-sulogin /var/lib/dpkg/info/*.conffiles | 13:09 |
| ogra | Keybuk, nope, but i'm only up to date with yesterday (no upgrades today yet) | 13:09 |
| Keybuk | ogra: I'm briefly theorising that it may be people who did a gutsy->hardy upgrade who have two | 13:10 |
| Keybuk | and people who followed who only have one | 13:10 |
| Keybuk | or it could simply be that people who have upstart 0.3.9-2 only have one | 13:10 |
| ogra | well, that laptop was installed last thursday | 13:10 |
| \sh | Keybuk, my amd64 is a gutsy -> hardy install .... but from early stages... | 13:10 |
| ogra | indeed with hardy directly | 13:10 |
| Ng | Keybuk: I have a PC at home which did gutsy->hardy and I haven't updated it for weeks, it has two matches for the grep | 13:10 |
| \sh | Keybuk, and the machine has only one answer to your grep | 13:10 |
| Keybuk | Ng: it has friendly-recovery bzr and upstart 0.3.9-1 installed? | 13:11 |
| Ng | Keybuk: yes | 13:11 |
| Keybuk | Ng: at least that's consistent then | 13:11 |
| \sh | Keybuk, so something went wrong between december and now ,-) (in december I upgraded to hardy) | 13:11 |
| Ng | I've not updated that machine since the end of february though | 13:12 |
| Keybuk | Ng: updating in the last few days seems to "resolve" the problem | 13:12 |
| Fujitsu | I reinstalled with Hardy beta, and have but one match. | 13:12 |
| Keybuk | but may give you a conffile prompt in the process | 13:12 |
| Fujitsu | I last upgraded last night. | 13:12 |
| Ng | Keybuk: I'm entirely happy to try that if you want? | 13:12 |
| Keybuk | Ng: not just yet, I'd like to capture lots of dpkg debug output in the process | 13:13 |
| \sh | Keybuk, but no f-r installed that is | 13:13 |
| Keybuk | so let me simulate in vmware first | 13:13 |

| cjwatson | munckfish: sure | 14:01 |
| munckfish | ok | 14:01 |
| munckfish | So | 14:01 |
| munckfish | q1: uclibc | 14:01 |
| munckfish | do you still want to use glibc? | 14:02 |
| cjwatson | like I say, disregard the comment in my first mail. Whatever can be made to work in time. | 14:02 |
| munckfish | Ok, this is what I was wondering | 14:02 |
| munckfish | what of your first email should | 14:03 |
| munckfish | be disregarded | 14:03 |
| munckfish | I guess the answer is all of it then? | 14:03 |
| cjwatson | everything :-) I was under the wrong impression about where things were failing | 14:03 |
| munckfish | ok fine fine | 14:03 |
| cjwatson | the fact that it builds successfully on davis indicates that the source package isn't completely screwed | 14:03 |
| munckfish | ok so all we can do is wait for adam c | 14:04 |
| cjwatson | or employ more guesswork :-) | 14:04 |
| munckfish | ok I'll scan the build log while I'm eating anyway | 14:05 |
| cjwatson | seems to be something building either a 32-bit or a 64-bit object when it should be building the other | 14:06 |
| munckfish | right | 14:07 |
| cjwatson | which suggests maybe something in the kernel build looking at the current machine type, that isn't being overridden properly? | 14:07 |
| munckfish | I'm afraid I didn't look too deeply into the cross compilation stuff, cause after I removed the referecnes to the redhat cross compiler it built ok and run ok | 14:07 |
| cjwatson | yeah, I'd missed that patch when I sent my first mail | 14:08 |
| munckfish | I'll double check the way the kboot Makefile handles cross comp | 14:08 |
| munckfish | I think the way I did it was probably cheating anyway | 14:08 |
| munckfish | cause there was some logic in there | 14:08 |
| munckfish | to decide based on the host system architecture | 14:08 |
| munckfish | I just set CROSS_* variables to "" | 14:09 |

| asac | Mirv: you understand how that goes? | 14:18 |
| asac | Mirv: if you want to do that accurately you can install the upstream .xpi and see how they are mapped | 14:18 |
| asac | Mirv: anyway. as long as all accesskeys have a matching letter in the word it hsould be fine (of course ther emight be clashes with other accesskeys in the same context/menu) | 14:18 |

| Mirv | mvo: ok the bug 216211 now has ack in the bug report from motu release | 14:58 |
| ubotu | Launchpad bug 216211 in compizconfig-settings-manager "ccsm Finnish translation broken again" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/216211 | 14:58 |
| jdong | mvo: btw, too late for Hardy, but what do you think about dist-upgrader being more aggressive about non-Ubuntu packages for next release cycle? | 15:00 |
| jdong | mvo: when I upgraded over the weekend some stale non-ABI compatible self-made lib packages from Gutsy caused everything GTK to segfault... | 15:01 |
| jdong | and pinning hardy to 9999 and removing all local/obsoletes fixed it | 15:01 |
| jdong | that might not be a terrible idea to suggest to the user in an upgrade, or offer as a safety mechanism users can choose later on (i.e. "remove all non-Ubuntu packages") | 15:01 |
| Mirv | asac: ok, firefox + xulrunner / Finnish should be fixed now in Rosetta. I downloaded the PO files from Rosetta and now that I received them, uploaded them at http://users.tkk.fi/~tajyrink/firefox_xulrunner_fi/ | 15:04 |
| asac | Mirv: ok thanks | 15:05 |
| asac | let me check | 15:05 |
| Hobbsee | jdong: mutter, mutter, prevu and crack? | 15:06 |
| jdong | Hobbsee: yeah some of it is just aggressive personal backporting but it's not out of the question for the "average user" to have some non-Ubuntu-origin installed packages. | 15:06 |
| Hobbsee | and to use trevhino... | 15:07 |
| jdong | Hobbsee: and we already disable 3rd party sources, it's not much of a stretch to force "downgrade" to hardy and remove local/obsolete packages afterwards | 15:07 |
| jdong | for that matter, /usr/local/lib could be evil too | 15:07 |
| Hobbsee | jdong: that's what i was actually going to look at, somewhere along the line. it seems i got sidetracked for hardy. | 15:08 |
| asac | Mirv: http://people.ubuntu.com/~asac/fi.tar.gz | 15:09 |
| jdong | Hobbsee: in the meantime, how about we set up a wiki page describing a procedure to force this downgrade manually before starting the upgrader? | 15:09 |
| Hobbsee | jdong: i don't intend to get stuck supporting user-made crack, sorry :) | 15:10 |
| * Hobbsee has enough to deal with, with work and freenode mess as it is. | 15:10 | |
| jdong | Hobbsee: would you yell at me if I wrote such a wiki page? :) | 15:11 |
| Hobbsee | no | 15:11 |
| * jdong puts an item on his TODO list | 15:11 | |
| Hobbsee | pitti: looks like you may want to read the riot act (kde-guidance) | 15:12 |
| Mirv | asac: works great! all the menus etc. I can see are now as it should be for fi. it's great to see Firefox properly localized! | 15:12 |

| Hobbsee | Riddell: oh, so the patch is actually different now, and doesn't come from andreas, but actually comes from ScottK instead? | 15:17 |
| JohnPhys | Are there plans to include the fix to bug #195052 in hardy, even though hardy is now in final freeze? | 15:17 |

| Keybuk | cjwatson: got a moment? | 15:19 |
| cjwatson | Keybuk: yep | 15:21 |
| Keybuk | so, dpkg | 15:21 |
| Keybuk | is package A contains a file, and package B contains a file | 15:22 |
| Keybuk | if you try and install package B, that should fail due to a conflict | 15:22 |
| Keybuk | right? | 15:22 |
| Keybuk | (file with same name) | 15:22 |
| munckfish | cjwatson: I have to get back to work now. But I did find this http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=193337 | 15:24 |
| cjwatson | Keybuk: I'd have thunk so ... | 15:24 |
| munckfish | The guy has a 64 bit object, but the linker is 32 bit | 15:24 |
| Keybuk | ok | 15:24 |
| Keybuk | now if package A contains a conffile, and package B contains a conffile with the same name | 15:24 |
| Keybuk | and you try and install package B | 15:25 |
| Keybuk | should that not fail also? | 15:25 |
| munckfish | cjwatson: I have no idea what the problem is yet | 15:25 |
| cjwatson | Keybuk: I'd have thought it would fail even harder. That said I'm not sure of the semantics of Replaces+conffiles | 15:25 |
| munckfish | I just need more time | 15:25 |
| cjwatson | munckfish: right, the question is why | 15:25 |
| Keybuk | cjwatson: right | 15:25 |
| Keybuk | except it doesn't | 15:25 |
| munckfish | cjwatson: yes, right | 15:25 |
| Keybuk | what I'm seeing here is simple | 15:25 |
| Keybuk | upstart-compat-sysv.conffiles has rcS-sulogin | 15:26 |
| Keybuk | friendly-recovery.conffiles *also* has rcS-sulogin | 15:26 |
| Keybuk | installing friendly-recovery succeeds without warning | 15:26 |
| Keybuk | it does *not* Replace upstart-compat-sysv | 15:26 |
| Keybuk | dpkg simply allows it | 15:26 |
| Keybuk | so you end up with a conffile changing ownership (and two packages claiming it in their .conffiles) | 15:26 |
| Keybuk | now, both have upgrades | 15:26 |
| Keybuk | friendly-recovery's upgrade removes the conffile again | 15:26 |
| Keybuk | upstart's upgrade changes the conffile | 15:26 |
| Keybuk | depending which order you do this upgrade, you will either get | 15:27 |
| Keybuk | a) status quo, upstart owns its conffile and content is correct | 15:27 |
| Keybuk | b) conffile prompt | 15:27 |
| mvo | Keybuk: it might be even funnier, I think I have seen a file overwrite error under certain situations for this conffile (see bug #205911) | 15:29 |

| seb128 | ah ok | 15:58 |
| pitti | seb128: i. e. our current dbus-glib .debs are fine, but a mere rebuild breaks them | 15:59 |
| pitti | (thus "time bomb") | 15:59 |
| seb128 | pitti: walters is on #ubuntu-desktop if you need to talk to him, he pinged me about that the other day to ask what dbus version has been used to do the current debian build | 15:59 |

| pitti | tjaalton: ah, point :) | 16:03 |
| seb128 | alex-weej_: which ones are installed? | 16:04 |
| seb128 | alex-weej_: I might get the issue but my disks are fast enough to not notice the 1 second gap there | 16:04 |

| pitti | tjaalton: hm, I don't have vmmouse_detect; are you sure that this is spelt correctly? or another dependency is missing? | 16:05 |
| pitti | tjaalton: oh, or is that only in vmware tools? | 16:05 |
| tjaalton | pitti: it's from mdetect | 16:06 |
| tjaalton | soren: actually, could you patch your dexconf to test this ^^ | 16:06 |
| tjaalton | or someone with a kvm setup | 16:07 |
| pitti | tjaalton: ah, right, I have it removed, but not purged (for some reason; I never manually remove packages, just purge) | 16:09 |
| pitti | tjaalton: the logic looks reasonably defensive, so I'm ok with it | 16:10 |
| tjaalton | pitti: ok cool | 16:10 |
| soren | For it to work, we need the mdetect I uploaded a few hours ago, too. | 16:11 |
| pitti | seb128: do you have some minutes to rebuild and install http://incoming.debian.org/dbus-glib_0.74-2.dsc and test it for a bit? I'll do that on amd64 here | 16:12 |
| seb128 | pitti: sure | 16:12 |

| jdstrand | pitti: hi! | 16:19 |
| jdstrand | pitti: I was curious on your thoughts on dapper -> hardy cupsys upgrades wrt apparmor | 16:19 |
| jdstrand | pitti: in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ApparmorProfileMigration we put apparmor in complain mode for dapper -> hardy, so as not to break anything | 16:20 |
| jdstrand | pitti: OTOH for standard desktop upgrade, there would be no problem, but I can envision potential problems for specialized cupsys servers | 16:21 |
| pitti | jdstrand: what's the problem with the upgrade? | 16:31 |
| pitti | jdstrand: oh, you mean if someone installed a-p on dapper and then upgrades? | 16:31 |
| jdstrand | pitti: oh no-- nothing specific. I am thinking hypothetically | 16:31 |
| pitti | jdstrand: did that have a different profile file name? | 16:31 |
| pitti | jdstrand: ending up in complain mode under hardy would be bad | 16:32 |
| jdstrand | pitti: no, I mean apparmor isn't available on dapper, so they could change the configs at will, then update to hardy and apparmor breaks their configuration | 16:32 |
| pitti | since we dropped our derooting patch, and the profile is our only way to reasonably confine it | 16:32 |
| pitti | jdstrand: hm; that's outside of our powers, I think | 16:32 |
| pitti | dpkg's conffile magic should hopefully catch that | 16:32 |
| seb128 | pitti: seems to work fine on my laptop | 16:32 |
| pitti | seb128: merci | 16:32 |
| seb128 | de rien ;-) | 16:32 |
| jdstrand | pitti: I'm not a cups guru, but my feeling is people would need to do something really exotic with their dapper configuration for the apparmor profile to break things-- would you agree? | 16:35 |
| pitti | jdstrand: they could have configured stuff which prevents new features (read: backends) in hardy from working properly, or at all | 16:35 |
| pitti | jdstrand: but really, if they went that far, my gut feeling is that they should read the conffile debdiff, or dmesg for the error messages | 16:36 |
| pitti | (or not care about the new features) | 16:36 |
| jdstrand | jdstrand: ok. this seemed a little bit different than the other servers that now have enforcing profiles (named, mysqld and slapd), but I at least wanted to talk about it with you. I agree, esp wrt the derooting patch, it needs to be enforcing | 16:37 |
| * pitti chuckles while watching jdstrand talk to himself | 16:38 | |
| jdstrand | oh heh | 16:38 |
| jdstrand | pitti: ^ :P | 16:38 |
| pitti | 'safer printing' | 16:38 |
| pitti | seb128: ok, that dbus-glib patch looks obviously correct to me, too | 16:39 |

| pitti | seb128: I'll sync it now, and take the bullets | 16:49 |

| infinity | cjwatson: linux32 madness? | 17:29 |

| infinity | cjwatson: On powerpc, I invoke sbuild with "linux32 sbuild ...", so trying the davis build with linux32 would be nice. | 17:35 |
| infinity | cjwatson: Given the 64 versus 32 linking error, I'm guessing that's the issue. | 17:35 |

| asac | bryce: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7020/ | 18:03 |
| asac | bryce: so performance is better | 18:04 |
| asac | bryce: and there are less bugs because you don't depend on hardware specifics anymore | 18:04 |

| asac | bryce: and fedora has it off everywhere by default too. so we are rather alone - no doubt thats one of the reason why these things don't get fixed | 18:05 |

| cjwatson | infinity: I'd actually forgotten about that window; but unfortunately (?), it seems to be happily building under linux32 too | 18:08 |
| cjwatson | certainly no early failure | 18:08 |
| infinity | cjwatson: Damn. | 18:08 |
| infinity | cjwatson: Kay, can you file a ticket then, so I don't lose it in the recesses of my rebuild-addled mind, and I'll poke it later? | 18:09 |
| jdong | bryce: is texturedvideo usable on the gma950 or is it awful slow? | 18:10 |
| bryce | jdong: I've heard fairly mixed reviews, although a lot of the remaining issues sound like they might just be corner cases / config issues | 18:12 |
| jdong | bryce: sounds like something I should try :D | 18:14 |
| bryce | asac, do you have a pointer to the redhat patch? I can try packaging it up today | 18:15 |
| jdong | bryce: well it works but is very CPU intensive | 18:16 |
| jdong | bryce: does that mean I'm doing something wrong or is that a limitation of my hardware? | 18:18 |
| asac | bryce: in the paste | 18:18 |
| asac | there is a checkout command | 18:18 |

| alex-weej | fedora still use cvs!? | 18:20 |
| jdong | bryce: seems like while fullscreen and unredirected TV works great but windowed it's CPU-heavy. At least it doesn't hang like overlay for me | 18:20 |

| seanh | If I want to start developing a Python CGI script on Ubuntu, can anyone point me to instructions on how to get going? I know Python, what I need to know is what packages to install and where to put my CGI scripts in order to be able to test them locally on Ubuntu | 18:23 |
| bryce | jdong: sounds like it's doing software acceleration or something. I don't know enough about texturedvideo's design/implementation to know why it would be cpu intensive, but it's still sort of new-ish so it doesn't surprise me | 18:24 |
| asac | bryce: thanks a lot. can we get that into RC1 so we get feedback ? | 18:24 |
| bryce | jdong: there may be some settings required to push it into hardware accel mode | 18:24 |
| bryce | asac, I think so. Should be simple to integrate | 18:25 |
| asac | bryce: thanks! | 18:25 |
| * asac hugs bryce | 18:26 | |
| bryce | asac: the thing to watch for is that upstream's comments are all generalizations - "in general we feel this to be better", but the bugs will come from those people not in the general case ;-) | 18:26 |
| cjwatson | infinity: RT#30463, thanks | 18:27 |
| bryce | asac: however we've been making "deprecation noises" about XAA for a while anyway | 18:28 |
| asac | bryce: right. but i'd say that putting more into software is usually a safe thing (without being X matinainer of course) | 18:28 |
| bryce | I just hope it affects performance only, and doesn't render systems unusable (they hate that) | 18:28 |
| cjwatson | james_w: your last grub-installer patch seems like it'll re-encrypt anything passed with grub-installer/password-crypted. Shouldn't the md5crypt call be in the else branch? | 18:29 |
| bryce | yep probably so. Different code paths though, so different bug risks. But that software code is probably been heavily tested. | 18:29 |
| cjwatson | james_w: (if you agree, I'll just make that change, no need to repost) | 18:29 |
| slangasek | james_w: how thoroughly has the change for bug #136837 been tested prior to upload? I guess this patch isn't committed upstream yet | 18:35 |

(We just answered that question again in #ubuntu-server) | 18:50 |
| slangasek | zul: errm. why does fixing a segfault require pulling in a complete base64 implementation? | 18:50 |
| zul | slangasek: because it was taken from their SVN | 18:50 |

| infinity | cjwatson: Other than the general urgency of "RC in 3 days, release in 10", is the ps3-kboot something you need done ASAP, or "in a day or two'? | 18:55 |
| james_w | cjwatson: yes, you're right, thanks for catching it. | 18:56 |
| james_w | slangasek: I've tested it here, and it is used in Fedora and Mandriva. Unfortunately there's been no comment on it upstream. | 18:56 |
| james_w | slangasek: it may in fact be unrelated to the other bug, I was just going on what the Mandriva guy said in the upstream bug report. I don't have an appropriate setup to test that part. | 18:57 |
| slangasek | james_w: ok, accepting then | 18:57 |
| slangasek | james_w: right, I was just confused as to *what* the expected effect on the other bug would be, since your comments in the two bugs seemed to contradict each other | 18:57 |
| james_w | I tried to work with one of the gstreamer devs to get a fix for the second bug, but he didn't confirm that the patch worked. | 18:58 |
| james_w | slangasek: sorry for the confusion, the second bug is a typo, it should read "make this happen", rather than "make this work". | 18:59 |
| cjwatson | infinity: well, it *is* ports, but the problem is that the current ps3-kboot is utterly buggered because they changed the boot protocol | 19:12 |

| doko | infinity, slangasek: how serious are the failed builds from yesterday's autobuildtst? i.e. mutt failed due to a missing links package for example, but apparently succeeded to build on the normal buildd | 20:33 |

| infinity | doko: But that sounds like a "real" failure to me... | 20:37 |
| doko | infinity: why? elinks is in main and provides links | 20:38 |
| doko | thought our sbuild can handle this ... | 20:38 |
| infinity | doko: Oh, I didn't understand what you were saying until I read the log. | 20:39 |
| infinity | doko: It's possible sbuild on the autotest machines is out of sync with sbuild in LP... I'll have to check that before I find out why that failed. | 20:39 |
| infinity | doko: Actually, hrm. It didn't succeed on LP due to sbuild at all. sbuild called "apt-get install links", it's apt-get that DTRT. | 20:40 |

| infinity | bigon: Have you looked at how "palo" cheats in this regard? | 21:12 |

| bdmurray | slangasek: Sure, I thought he was talking about that other bug report. | 22:18 |
| slangasek | oh, maybe he was | 22:19 |
| bdmurray | Actually I've provided everything that existed in '/var/log/dist-upgrade/' and '/var/log/apt/term.log' only contains information about package upgrades. | 22:19 |
| soren | Hm... I need to find the appropriate ifdef's for only compiling certain things on i386 and amd64. Now, I *could* just look in some code that does it already, but where is that actually documented? | 22:22 |
| slangasek | bdmurray: ok, well, either way, 217435 is not a pam bug (the pam package relationships have been correct and stable since before gutsy), and there's not enough info in that bug report to diagnose the cause of the failure... | 22:23 |

| slangasek | mvo: I've accepted it, it can't be a regression vs. what there is now - but it doesn't look like a very correct fix to me, since if it overflowed once, that means there's code elsewhere that makes hard-coded assumptions about the buffer size that should still be fixed | 23:07 |

| Amaranth | although i think in most cases we don't use any outside input to fill the buffer so if it overflows we've broken something ourselves | 23:11 |
| slangasek | Amaranth: not faster than using sizeof() to get compile-time integer math on your buffers to be sure that nothing can overflow it... | 23:12 |
| Amaranth | which bug is he trying to fix? i'm a bit out of the loop here | 23:12 |
| slangasek | Amaranth: buffer overflow in gaussian blur with radius > 12 | 23:12 |
| Amaranth | ah | 23:12 |
| slangasek | no bug number mentioned in the changelog, IIRC (it's no longer in front of me) | 23:13 |
| mvo | Amaranth: maniac pointed me to the patch today | 23:13 |
| infinity | munckfish: Possibly, what's the minute being used for? :) | 23:13 |
| Amaranth | although blur is general is pretty broken so i doubt that's a huge issue :P | 23:13 |
| Amaranth | it only works on nvidia cards, afaik | 23:13 |
| munckfish | Hi, I'm trying to solve a build fail on adare - ps3-kboot | 23:14 |
| slangasek | Amaranth: anyway, checking your bounds is surely going to be faster than continuing to write memory past the end of the buffer ;) | 23:14 |
| munckfish | It builds fine on ps3, colin watsons 'davis' machine | 23:14 |
| cjwatson | (not my machine, it's a powerpc box in the Canonical DC) | 23:14 |
| munckfish | but failed on adare | 23:14 |
| munckfish | cjwatson: hi thx for clarifying | 23:15 |
| munckfish | infinity: | 23:15 |
| munckfish | infinity: could you run a script on adare so I can see what certain build vars would end up as? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/63186/ | 23:15 |
| munckfish | Or could you tell me what they'd end up as? | 23:15 |
| cjwatson | slangasek: I dunno, the kernel might be able to optimise it if the memory after the end of the buffer is mmapped from /dev/zero :-P | 23:16 |
| slangasek | heh | 23:16 |
| infinity | munckfish: I can in a sec... I'm just in the middle of something. | 23:16 |
| cjwatson | or indeed /dev/null, er, meh | 23:16 |
| munckfish | infinity: thx | 23:16 |
| slangasek | cjwatson: I'm pretty sure the kernel trap would be more expensive still :-) | 23:16 |
| cjwatson | spoil my fun, why don't you | 23:17 |
| slangasek | mvo: I totally don't understand the debdiff for bug #216822; the bug report talks about amd64, and your change in the package is s/i386/powerpc/...? | 23:18 |
| ubotu | Launchpad bug 216822 in gnome-app-install "Can't install ardour2 from add/remove programs in latest hardy build" [Low,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/216822 | 23:18 |
| mvo | slangasek: amd64 was not listed, that makes the package appear in the list but it is shown with a remark that it is not avilalbe on the given architecure - this is to avoid a situation were people search for software and wonder why we don't have it. we tell them that we have it but can't provide it for their arch for some reason. the problem here is that the ardour desktop file had a incorrect architecure field | 23:21 |
| mvo | slangasek: (well, two incorrects even - its available on all arches, so the fields are bogus) | 23:22 |
| slangasek | mvo: so how does putting "powerpc" there help anything? | 23:22 |
| mvo | slangasek: my debdiff for the ardour.desktop file looks like this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7052/ | 23:24 |
| mvo | slangasek: do you see something different? | 23:25 |
| slangasek | mvo: only when I'm not looking at it properly | 23:26 |
| slangasek | mvo: I thought it was -/+, not -/-; thanks for your patience :-) | 23:26 |
| infinity | munckfish: | 23:26 |
| infinity | Hostname: adare | 23:26 |
| infinity | GCC dumpmachine: powerpc-linux-gnu | 23:26 |
| infinity | kboot HOST_ARCH: powerpc | 23:26 |
| infinity | Uname -a: Linux adare 2.6.15-28-powerpc64-smp #1 SMP Thu May 10 10:05:07 UTC 2007 ppc GNU/Linux | 23:26 |
| mvo | slangasek: no problem :) thanks for your review! | 23:26 |
| munckfish | infinity: thx v much! | 23:28 |
| infinity | munckfish: Do I even want to know why ps3-kboot ships with its own linux source tree? :) | 23:33 |
| cjwatson | infinity: Ben gave the OK for that for this release - we don't have time to build it from our kernel :-/ | 23:34 |
| munckfish | infinity: the bootloader for PS3 needs USB, and Bluetooth support so it runs it's own compact kernel | 23:34 |
| cjwatson | infinity: it's just a bootloader, so security implications are minimal | 23:34 |
| munckfish | infinity: networking disabled etc | 23:34 |
| infinity | Scary... | 23:35 |
| munckfish | infinity: would you have any idea | 23:35 |
| munckfish | why we get "ld: Relocatable linking with relocations from format elf64-powerpc (init/do_mounts.o) to format elf32-powerpc (init/mounts.o) is not supported" | 23:35 |
| munckfish | on adare but nowhere else? | 23:35 |
| infinity | I'm doing a test build on adare right now... | 23:35 |
| munckfish | I'm currently needling thru makefiles trying to work it out | 23:35 |
| munckfish | infinity: oh cool thx | 23:35 |
| infinity | Oh, good, it fails without sbuild in the equation. That makes it definitely Not My Bug. | 23:36 |
| slangasek | munckfish: what does the build log show as to how it's built? Do you see each of those object files being built in the build log? | 23:36 |
| munckfish | As far as I can see the kernel makefile is passed exactly the same stuff on all the machines we've built on so far | 23:36 |
| munckfish | slangasek: yes | 23:36 |
| munckfish | it doesn't get very far | 23:37 |
| infinity | munckfish: For reproducibility's sake, I'm using a debootstrap --variant=buildd chroot, upgraded to latest hardy, /proc and /dev/pts mounted, then "linux32 chroot test-chroot", installing build-deps, and building. | 23:37 |
| munckfish | the first time it tries to link it fails | 23:37 |
| infinity | slangasek: The log is rather opaque, it's the kernel make filter. | 23:37 |
| slangasek | meh | 23:37 |
| slangasek | try a test build with V=1? | 23:37 |
| munckfish | V=1? | 23:38 |
| munckfish | oh verbose i c | 23:38 |
| slangasek | to tell the kernel make rules to be verbose | 23:38 |
| slangasek | and show you what they're really doing | 23:38 |
| munckfish | Yeah I'd like to see that | 23:39 |
| infinity | slangasek: will a kernel make being run from dpkg-buildpackage pick it up if exported in the shell, or do I need to get to mangling debian/rules in this thing? | 23:39 |
| slangasek | I have no idea | 23:40 |
| infinity | Also, a build system that doesn't involve unpacking linux.tar.bz2 would make me less sad. | 23:40 |
| slangasek | heh | 23:40 |
| munckfish | infinity: me too | 23:40 |
| munckfish | there's a lot of untidyness | 23:40 |
| munckfish | but i left out everything not reqd to just get it to build | 23:40 |
| munckfish | apologies | 23:40 |
| munckfish | these things can be addressed in subsequent updates | 23:40 |
| munckfish | infinity: the call to the build the kernel happens in {source dir}/kboot-11/Makefile line 645 if that helps, trouble is that's the 3rd | 23:43 |
| munckfish | nested Makefile by the time we've called rules as well | 23:43 |
| munckfish | cjwatson: this error, it's saying that a 64bit linker isn't available right? Well 'davis' isn't 64 bit so where's it gonna be coming from on that machine? | 23:50 |
| munckfish | Are we likely just missing another build-dep? | 23:50 |
| munckfish | but then I used pbuilder with the bare minimum | 23:51 |
| munckfish | :( | 23:51 |
| cjwatson | munckfish: davis is running a 64-bit kernel, as it happens ... | 23:52 |
| cjwatson | I doubt magic cross-linkers would be used automatically though | 23:53 |
| munckfish | duh stupid me yes it's in that report you made for me earlier | 23:53 |
| munckfish | (munckfish needs sleep) | 23:53 |
| munckfish | so that's exactly the same setup | 23:53 |
| munckfish | :( | 23:53 |
| infinity | munckfish: As soon as this "hahaha, bzi2 forever!" build system is done failing again, I'll toss a verbose log your way. | 23:54 |
| infinity | munckfish: Which may or may not be enlightening. | 23:54 |
| munckfish | infinity: thx, I guess you're referring to the backup upstream makes of the kernel source before patching | 23:55 |
| infinity | munckfish: http://people.ubuntu.com/~adconrad/ps3-kboot-verbose.log | 23:55 |
| munckfish | infinity: thx, I'll go analyse it | 23:56 |
| infinity | "ld -m elf64ppc -m elf32ppclinux ..." looks pretty special to me. | 23:56 |
| munckfish | yep | 23:57 |
| munckfish | I just spotted that | 23:58 |
