slangasekbut the short summary is, "not happening tomorrow"00:00
cjwatsonlibffi4 was due to gnome-python2-extras needing rebuilt; I was about to poke at that this morning and noticed that somebody else was already doing so00:00
slangasekok; still not resolved in the archive, as of my last attempt to build a livefs a couple hours ago00:01
cjwatsoninstaller components> now, cdrom-detect actually *is* almost done, so I'll get that uploaded tonight00:01
cjwatsonwell, gnome-python2-extras and then rebuilds against it ...00:01
cjwatsonbasically libffi4 is NBS and all dependencies on it are now bugs00:01
slangasekah00:01
dokothe excessive libffi4 deps should be fixed with a recent python-gobject, plus rebuilds00:01
cjwatsonthere is still a rather vast swathe of merges to be done, for which I have no small responsibility00:05
cjwatsonif you're not on .1 duty or have other urgent things to do, then please do get to these as soon as you have specs written up00:05
cjwatsonthe only other thing I have is to draw attention to Claire's mail regarding the distro sprint00:07
* TheMuso has started organising flights already.00:07
cjwatsonunfortunately holding both halves of the sprint side-by-side in London didn't work out, but we will all still be in London on the previously-mentioned dates (14-18 July)00:07
cjwatsonand there may be some kind of conference link to Lexington during the timezone overlap, so plan anything in advance that you need to work on with the kernel/server/mobile teams00:08
cjwatsonany other business? I haven't found any in activity reports yet00:08
cjwatsonI'll take that as a no, then00:11
cjwatsonadjourned, not too badly over time00:12

slangasekbdmurray: ogasawara: there?08:02
kirklandslangasek: fwiw, ogasawara's ACTIVITY report says she's on holiday starting June 13th ...08:03
kirklandslangasek: nevermind, it's the 12th today....08:04
slangasekzul indicated earlier today that he would be in, but he's not on IRC now; pedro sends his regrets; let's go ahead and get started and we can bring the others up to speed as needed afterwards08:04
slangasekkirkland: right :-)08:05
slangasekit was fairly short notice, so I'm not terribly put out if not everyone is able to make it08:05
slangasekanyway, on with the agenda08:05
slangasek- talking through any issues that should be critical for the point release but haven't been addressed08:06
slangasek#1) pulseaudio08:06
seb128was going to mention this one08:06
seb128gvfs smb issues are really annoying too08:06
slangasekTheMuso: can you give us a summary of where you think things are right now with pulseaudio?08:07
seb128at least for corporate use which we could expect from a lts version08:07
pittialso highly popular for home users08:07
slangasekyes, but that's #2, let's try to take these one at a time :)08:07
TheMusoOk. I think the biggest issues that users are facing with pulse, is general sound card + pulseaudio interractivity issues, performance/buffering issues, and flash + pulse.08:07
pittiare the first two actually pulse issues, or fallout from our alsa userspace/kernel desync?08:08
TheMusoThe first is hard to track down as I can't reproduce it locally, and some users who have tried 1.0.16 for alsa-lib from intrepid say that it helps them, and some say it doesn't. However in general I don't know what fixes need backporting to fix the issue for those wo find using alsa-lib 1.0.16 helps.08:08
TheMusopitti: I am enclined to think that the first is certainly a fallout from our alsa-lib and kernel being out of sync.08:09
seb128is there a lot of changes between 1.0.15 and 1.0.16, would an update be an option?08:09
pittiwell, if alsa-lib .16 is a stable microrelease with only bug fixes, and since our kernel already has .16, we should at least consider+test upgrading userspace to .16 too08:09
TheMusoThe second, I'm not so sure of. I/Daniel have suggested users try 1.0.16 for stuttering issues, but nobody as replied. I'll have to poke again.08:09
slangasekTheMuso: how broadly reported is the first of those issues?  (Do you have a bug number?)08:09
TheMusoslangasek: Give me a minute.08:10
TheMusobug 19102708:10
ubottuLaunchpad bug 191027 in totem ""Failed to connect stream: Invalid argument"" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/19102708:10
TheMusoSome users in that bug have stated that 1.0.16 of alsa-lib from intrepid helped.08:10
TheMusoseb128: There are a lot of changes, yes.08:11
TheMusoseb128: Symbols added/removed/renamed, mostly in the plugins I think, and interfaces depricated as they were depricated/removed in the kernel code.08:11
persiaFWIW, as one of the users for whom the update didn't solve the Invalid Argument issue for some hardware, it also didn't show regressions on other hardware.08:12
TheMusoThe third issue is an alsa-plugins/pulse issue in general, which can be partly solved by backporting code from 1.0.16 for lib/plugins.08:12
slangasekTheMuso: application-facing interfaces deprecated?08:12
TheMusoslangasek: No.08:12
slangasekTheMuso: do we ship any alsa plugins that aren't part of the alsa-lib distribution itself?08:12
TheMusobug 221673 is one I have worked on.08:13
ubottuLaunchpad bug 221673 in alsa-plugins "ALSA failing with PulseAudio in Hardy" [Undecided,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/22167308:13
pittiTheMuso: that means our userspace alsa .15 is using ABIs in the kernel (.16) which don't exist any more?08:14
TheMusoslangasek: Not that I know of, I'd have to check what packages depend on libasound2.08:14
* ogasawara waves08:14
TheMusopitti: Yes.08:14
pittiTheMuso: *gulp*08:14
TheMusoAnd it seems that pulse is hitting some of those issues.08:14
slangasekTheMuso: so am I right in saying that it's your assessment that alsa-lib 1.0.16 will /probably/ fix all of the major issues that we should be trying to address for 8.04.1?08:15
TheMusoslangasek: Without being able to reproduce them myself, and without having enough feedback to confirm, I would say that it might, but wouldn't want to risk it myself.08:15
TheMusoAll my sound hardware works here with no issues, worst luck.08:16
seb128I think we should consider the update, the current situation seems to be broken anyway08:16
slangasekTheMuso: you wouldn't want to risk the possibility of regressions with 1.0.16, or you just wouldn't want to bet on it fixing everyone's problems?08:16
pittiTheMuso: does that include the stuttering/latency issues? or do they still need increas of the frame size?08:16
TheMusoslangasek: I don't want to risk regressions.08:16
slangasekhmm=08:16
asacas far as i understood crimsun, we still have to take care that we run set-pulseaudio for default installs once they get the new alsa+flash08:17
TheMusopitti: The problem with stuttering is it fixes it for some, and breaks it for others. I have a range of CPU speeds here and while it works fine on faster hardware, slower hardware gets adversly affected if the frame size/fragments etc is changed.08:17
asace.g. to make alsa use the pulse plugin08:17
asacand we need flash 10 to be able to use it08:17
TheMusoasac: Not an option. KDE and XFCE don't use pulse.08:17
TheMusoasac: Oh you don't mean by default, sorry.08:17
asacthen at least the flash-blocking other apps from playing sound is not going to work08:17
TheMusoslangasek: However, I think there are only added symbols for 1.0.16, and none removed/changed, for interfacing apps at least.08:18
asacTheMuso: well ... i ment that for systems with PA we should run it08:18
slangasekTheMuso: then I am inclined to defer to you on that point, given how quickly 8.04.1 is coming up on us.  What about other options - are there any isolated fixes that it might help us to backport?08:18
seb128debian and fc9 are using 1.0.16 for a while and it seems to work fine there08:18
slangasekTheMuso: well, backing up then - what regressions are you concerned about?08:18
asacotherwise one of the major broken use-cases will stay unfixed08:18
TheMusoslangasek: Applications breaking, plugins that we don't ship in alsa-plugins breaking. As it is, we would have to update -lib and -plugins together.08:19
TheMusoBut I don't see what option we have at this stage, since feedback from users is mixed, and those of us close to development can't seem to reproduce the issues.08:19
seb128do we have extra plugins shipped not in alsa-plugins?08:19
TheMusoseb128: I don't know. It would require all packages that depend on libasound2 being checked./08:19
asacfta from mozillateam complained that intrepid alsa makes flash 10 + firefox crash: too still08:19
asacfirefox: pcm_pulse.c:275: pulse_write: Assertion `pcm->last_size >= (size * pcm->frame_size)' failed.08:20
asacTheMuso: i poke him to open a bug08:20
TheMusoasac: Ok.08:20
slangasekis there someone who could help TheMuso with verifying whether we have any other plugins packages that we would have to worry about updating?08:20
pittiwhat does "other plugins packages" mean?08:21
slangasekTheMuso: if applications were to break, how would you expect that to manifest, based on what you've seen of the diff?08:21
slangasekpitti: packages depending on libasound2 which provide plugins for alsa itself, AIUI08:21
TheMusoslangasek: Symbols not being found/calls failing and behaving oddly.08:21
TheMusoslangasek: Correct re plugins.08:21
pittiah, like libasound2-plugins (which we don't even install by default)08:21
TheMusopitti: Right.08:22
seb128maybe jordi has some ideas about that08:22
seb128debian did the update some months ago08:22
seb128I can ping him on the topic08:23
TheMusoI know for a fact that the alsa devs do their best to preserve binary compatibility, so symbols have not been changed or removed, just added. THings between userspace and kernelspace are constantly changing however.08:23
slangasekseb128: ok, that sounds good - if the answer is that debian didn't explicitly deal with this issue, pitti, would you be able to help with identifying the packages we need to worry about?08:23
pittislangasek: yes, I'll find all packages which provide alsa plugins08:24
pittiI think we can take it for granted that the entire hardy.1 team will test 0.16 packages on their hardware08:24
TheMusoI think apt-file could help here.08:24
slangasekTheMuso: you talked about "symbols added/removed/renamed" earlier - does that refer only to plugin interfaces?08:25
pittiTheMuso: I'll walk though the reverse build deps, I think08:25
TheMusoslangasek: I'll double check, but I am pretty sure that is the case.08:25
TheMusoi.e only plugin interfaces.08:25
TheMusooh...08:26
TheMusoThe sequencer instrument layer was removed. I think thats something to do with app interfacing, but not sure without further digging.08:26
slangasekTheMuso: so as far as applications breaking, we can fairly easily establish whether symbol lookups will be a problem (indeed, you seem to have already done this with your statement that symbols have not been changed or removed)08:26
slangasekTheMuso: as for calls failing, that's the general, not-easily-quantifiable risk associated with any library upgrade08:27
TheMusoslangasek: This is going from the alsa 1.0.16 changelog and vcs comments.08:27
slangasekTheMuso: right; given that we have 1.0.16 in intrepid, I can fairly easily inspect the binaries to confirm this08:28
TheMusoThe more I read into this the more I feel less sure about it.08:28
pittiTheMuso: we only have some 30 reverse build depends, and http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?searchon=contents&keywords=libasound_module&mode=filename&suite=hardy&arch=any isn't that long either08:28
TheMusopitti: RIght.08:29
pittibluez-audio, bluetooth-alsa, that's it08:29
pittiand we need to rebuild ia32-libs afterwards08:29
* TheMuso nods.08:29
slangasekTheMuso: my overall conclusion is that we really should pursue 1.0.16 as a possible SRU candidate; there is some information we still need to gather as part of that process, but that's not a huge problem...08:29
slangasekTheMuso: otherwise, what alternatives would you suggest?08:30
TheMusoslangasek: I agree.08:30
slangasekok08:30
pittican we test hardy 0.16 packages in a PPA first?08:30
slangasekTheMuso: please go ahead with preparing the SRU itself, so we can evaluate it as soon as all the information is in place08:30
pittiif the packaging changes are negligible, we can also backport the intrepid version08:30
slangasekpreparing via SRU if appropriate08:30
slangaseklet's move on from here though, there are other topics to touch yet08:31
pittibut if anything moved around in the packaging, we shuold rather update hardy's version to 0.16 upstream only and keep the packaging08:31
TheMusopitti: Sure. I know that the intrepid alsa-lib builds fine on hardy.08:31
slangasekeh, s/SRU/PPA/, whatever :(08:31
slangasek:)08:31
slangasekso, moving on08:31
TheMusoI'll check for that sort of thing as well. I think the only change is patches that hardy's version currently has that have been dropped.08:31
slangasekgvfs/samba08:31
slangasekseb128: hi :)08:31
* TheMuso will start digging tomorrow.08:31
seb128hey ;-)08:31
seb128so there is several issue there for sure08:32
seb128some seem to be due to libsmbclient08:32
seb128some others due to gvfs-smb08:32
seb128http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gvfs-list/2008-May/msg00005.html summarize those08:33
slangasekgvfs-smb is based on libsmbclient, though, I'm not sure what the distinction there is08:34
slangasekI mean, before gvfs-smb, we didn't have these problems with smb...08:34
seb128the main issues are bug #207072 which is that gvfs-smb gives to way to authentificate to browse shares08:34
ubottuLaunchpad bug 207072 in nautilus "nautilus does not display samba shares for machines inside an ADS network." [Undecided,Invalid] https://launchpad.net/bugs/20707208:34
slangasekyes08:34
seb128that's purely a gvfs-smb issue08:34
seb128the other one is http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=52927708:34
ubottuGnome bug 529277 in smb backend "cannot mount smb share when its subdirs are accessible but its root not" [Normal,Unconfirmed]08:34
slangasekI think that's a much lower-priority issue though, and don't think we should be concerned about fixing that for .108:35
seb128alex who is upstream for gvfs (and on holidays but he replied to the mail on the list) stated that this one is a libsmbclient issue08:35
seb128"This is really a libsmbclient problem. The stat of the root is just an08:35
seb128artificial way to trigger the mount operation. The reporter seems to08:35
seb128have some ideas how we could try to work around this.08:35
seb128"08:35
seb128the lack of testcases or way to easily set up a configuration that triggers those mounts issues doesn't make the thing easy to work on08:36
seb128 08:36
slangasekmm08:36
seb128what issues would you consider that should be fixed in 8.04.1?08:36
seb128I would say that the "fail to mount" bugs are the main problem reported08:36
seb128because it means users can't access those shares at all08:37
slangasekthe ADS authentication issue is a big one, as is bug #209520 (it appears)08:37
ubottuLaunchpad bug 209520 in nautilus "SMB error: Unable to mount location when server configured with security=share" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/20952008:37
seb128right, that's my opinion too08:38
seb128the security=share bug is a mess though08:38
seb128too many random comments from people having different issues there08:38
slangasekconfigurations where you can mount the share but not access the root directory of that share, while not impossible, are certainly pathological from the POV of the current code08:38
slangasekyeah, I'm well aware :/08:38
slangasekI've blocked some time to go through those two bugs later this week to work on them from the samba side08:39
slangasekso if test cases are what upstream needs, I should be able to cook some08:39
seb128that would be great08:39
slangasekok; any other issues that aren't getting enough attention for .1?08:40
asacwell ... something related.08:40
asaci have some hard time getting crash feedback from -proposed users08:40
asacanyone working on getting dbgsym package for -proposed?08:41
* slangasek wrinkles his nose. Why are you having crashes in -proposed? :)08:41

seb128asac: ^08:42
seb128asac: do you have an hardy-proposed ddeb source?08:42
pittiasac: in general we should have the .ddebs, yes; of course they are subject to the usual brittleness of the ddeb retriever08:42
asacslangasek: crashes are my daily breakfast :)08:42
asacseb128: ok thanks. I'll verify that the instructions we post have the proper ddebs lines.08:43
asacdone on this topic i guess08:43
seb128asac: the wiki stock reply probably only mention the hardy ddeb sources and not the pocket ones08:43
asacyeah08:43
slangasekso I guess no one else has any bugs that they think are not way off the map for .108:44
slangasekhow about bugs that you guys need a hand with?08:44
pittiphotos were one of my pet concern, but it has sufficiently be ironed out in -updates08:44
slangasekpitti: abiword 2.6 is still marked as "in progress", is that still on your radar anywhere?08:44
pittioh, hm08:45
pittiit needs quite a few new build dependencies, which makes this somewhat tricky for -updates08:45
pittisince we'd need to promote them to main in hardy-updates (eek)08:45
pittithe package itself works quite well, no concern about that08:45
seb128having 2.6 in hardy-updates would be nice to not get upstream angry against ubuntu ;-)08:46
pittiand they aren't really optional08:47
pitti(the new build deps)08:47
slangasekseb128: well, I'm not keen on breaking the archive to keep them from being angry, either08:48
seb128right08:48
pittiin earlier times, -backports didn't care about components, but nowadays it does unfortunately08:49
pittiotherwise -backports would be a good compromise08:49
slangasekpitti: we should at least make a final decision on this from an SRU standpoint this week, deciding whether to mess with promotions or to send upstream our regrets08:49
pittiTBH I only considered this at all for SRU back then because they got so mad about us08:50
slangasekany others?  I have 53 milestoned bugs on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/hardy/+bugs?field.status%3Alist=INPROGRESS&field.status%3Alist=FIXCOMMITTED&field.milestone%3Alist=1264 that are 'fix committed' or 'in progress' - anything that anyone wants a hand with, or are these mostly Not Yours? :-)08:50
slangasek(lots of kernel bugs in that list, of course)08:50
* seb128 is looking08:50
slangasekseb128: I see bug #150187 assigned to you, still at 'triaged' - IIRC we don't have a solid patch for that yet, should we defer it until .2?08:52

pittiso soon we should be able to do quite a few moves to -updates08:53
seb128slangasek: yes, I've been doing some poppler backporting for this one but no luck so far, I think it's not likely to me in 8.04.108:53
pittiother than that, the things that stick out, verification-wise, are python2.5 and the -geode mess08:54
seb128we got also some angry users about DVD drives not recognizing discs in hardy but those lack details for now and pitti is looking at the issue08:54
pittifor the latter, I'll look on the patches that Q-FUNK sent and sponsor them08:54

slangaseknow, on the subject of CD testing08:55
slangasekhttp://cdimage.ubuntu.com/hardy/daily-live/current/ is up; as of today, they should be proper, CD-sized images with the right set of packages08:56
slangasekso anyone who's done with their other .1 work, it would be very helpful if you could smoke test these and also help with the verification of those installer fixes that apply to the live CD08:56
slangasekthe alternate CDs are still not quite right in the head, but I'm working on those tonight still and will email the team when I have them sorted08:57
evandyay, thanks for taking care of that08:57
sbeattiethat would be great. I was trying to verify a couple of installer bugs tonight, but ran into the alternative cd kernel problem08:58
slangasek... and then, because of the OpenSSL issue, we are going to have to roll new images for pretty much everything released with 8.04, which means the iso testing matrix is again pretty substantial; so we're going to have to get testing resources lined up fairly soon here... just as soon as we get some images themselves08:58
slangasekand we're at time, and I have nothing left to cover; anyone else?08:59
sbeattieFor SRU verifications, it would be great to make sure there are testcases in the descriptions09:00
seb128about updates, is that still worth to do some sru uploads now?09:00
seb128or should we stop until 8.04.1?09:00
slangaseksbeattie: I've noticed the biggest offenders there are the kernel team, you might want to take that up with them directly :)09:00
sbeattieheh09:00
sbeattiethose and the generic package upgrades as well.09:01
seb128I guess we can upload and things which are not suitable can stay in hardy-proposed or unaccepted until 8.04.1?09:01
ogasawarasbeattie: I can help you with hassling them :)09:01
slangasekseb128: that's acceptable to me, if it's acceptable to pitti as well09:01
asaci might have been to busy to get the news, but which date are we now targetting for 8.04.1?09:01
slangasekseb128: of course, the major issues we identified tonight are exempt and will be approved within reason :)09:02
pittislangasek: WFM09:02
slangasekasac: ah, good question09:02
seb128;-)09:02
slangasekso originally, .1 was scheduled for the first week in July; then the prelim intrepid schedule came out which had alpha 2 releasing the same week09:02
slangasekKeybuk tentatively pushed .1 back to the second week in July as a result09:03
pittihm, then we'll have the sprint09:03
slangasekbut, given the current status of intrepid, I'm thinking it would be better to put .1 back on the first week and do the alpha the second week09:03
slangasekso anything else that we want to get in those images needs to be in the archive by around Monday of next week in order to keep that timeline09:04
asacok that information is good enough for me to get the idea. thanks09:04
seb128july 7 to 12 is GUADEC in case that's revelant to this discussion09:05

seb128Keybuk: hey ;-)14:00
Keybukgood afternoon14:01
pittihello Chief Engineer Mr. Scott14:02
KeybukChief Engineer? :p14:02
pitti(original Star Trek)14:02
Keybukahh14:03
kwwiiyou are supposed to say something in klingon to impress him14:03
pittinuQneH?14:03
KeybuktlInghan Qol ji'jatl14:03
kwwiihehe14:04
Keybukanyway, meeting time14:04
KeybukI didn't see any agenda items today, does anyone have anything they'd like to discuss?14:04
pittioriginally I had to (gdm guest login), but I cleared it with our Gnominator already; it does mean that the spec still didn't get finished yet, though14:05
pittibut I wondered about the priority of it14:06
Keybukpitti: what was the outcome?14:06
pittii. e. is it worth working with upstream gdm and find a common solution, at the expense of it taking longer14:06
pittior do we want it in intrepid, and we go for a custom solution without involving gdm?14:06
Keybukthis is Mark's spec14:07
pittiKeybuk: new gdm has preliminary infrastructure for guest account; I asked upstream about their plans on the ML, and pointed out our ideas14:07
seb128I don't think the upstream solution is going to take that longer14:07
pittiI'll wait for some answers anyway before I decide and finish the spec14:07
KeybukI think that it is very important for intrepid14:07
seb128as said fedora is working on a guest account thing to and they have some infrastructure bit in gdm already for that, so we just need to discuss what they plan exactly and work with upstream and getting that14:08
pittiKeybuk: ok; maybe the prio should be higher than "low" then?14:08
Keybukyes14:08
pittiso I guess I'll start with the wrapper around gnome-session and create a couple of AppArmor rules to lock it down14:08
Keybukok, cool14:09
Keybukhow's everyone doing with spec writing?14:09
pitti4 review, 1 to go (guest)14:10
kwwiimine are all done :p14:11
