| pwnguin | hi -- I've got a firefox bug I can duplicate, but I can't get apport to actually report it | 07:25 |
| pwnguin | s/bug/segfault/ | 07:26 |
| techno_freak | pwnguin, nothing in your /var/crash/ ? | 07:27 |
| pwnguin | appears empty | 07:27 |
| sbeattie | pwnguin: you've got apport enabled? | 07:27 |
| pwnguin | sbeattie: well, i dont recall explicitly disabling it | 07:28 |
| pwnguin | its possible i might have | 07:28 |
| pwnguin | it loves to pop up over failed package installs | 07:28 |
| sbeattie | pwnguin: (1) what's the contents of /etc/default/apport and (2) what does gconftool -g /apps/update-notifier/show_apport_crashes report | 07:29 |
| pwnguin | (2) true | 07:30 |
| pwnguin | hmm | 07:30 |
| pwnguin | enable=0 | 07:30 |
| pwnguin | should i dpkg-reconfigure that or just edit directly? | 07:31 |
| sbeattie | I, err, end up editing it directly. | 07:31 |
| sbeattie | That's also the recommended course of action in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed | 07:31 |
| sbeattie | once you've enabled it, do sudo /etc/init.d/apport start | 07:32 |
| pwnguin | hm | 07:35 |
| pwnguin | do i need to tweak ulimits or something? | 07:35 |
| sbeattie | shouldn't think so. | 07:36 |
| pwnguin | note to self: dont just delete the contents of apport-ignore.xml | 07:38 |
| sbeattie | heh | 07:38 |
| sbeattie | cat /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern should report something like |/usr/share/apport/apport %p %s %c | 07:38 |
| pwnguin | this actually causes an exception in apport itself | 07:38 |
| pwnguin | it drops a brick when theres no xml in that xml file | 07:39 |
| pwnguin | and of course, now it works | 07:39 |
| pwnguin | or? | 07:39 |
| pwnguin | apparently this is a very big crash | 07:40 |
| sbeattie | Yeah, firefox is, uh, weighty, and so it will probably take apport a bit to process it. | 07:42 |
| pwnguin | this isnt good | 07:43 |
| pwnguin | all the threads are claiming to be at a syscall | 07:43 |
| pwnguin | wait and poll | 07:43 |
| sbeattie | heh. Consider yourself stresstesting apport. | 07:45 |
| pwnguin | not apport | 07:45 |
| pwnguin | firefox | 07:45 |
| pwnguin | apports currently uploading to somewhere | 07:45 |
| sbeattie | Ah | 07:45 |
| pwnguin | thats cute | 07:46 |
| pwnguin | when reporting a bug in firefox | 07:47 |
| pwnguin | it opens... | 07:47 |
| pwnguin | firefox | 07:47 |
| sbeattie | lol | 07:48 |
| sbeattie | Hrm. | 07:48 |
| pwnguin | well hell, what version of ff do i have? | 07:49 |
| pwnguin | there's 15 dups of this, and one is claiming it's fixed in 3.0~b5+nobinonly-0ubuntu1 | 07:49 |
| sbeattie | what's apt-cache policy firefox say? | 07:50 |
| pwnguin | 3.0+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.8.04.1 | 07:50 |
| sbeattie | Hrm, that's the 3.0 final release. | 07:51 |
| pwnguin | it might not actually be a dupe | 07:51 |
| sbeattie | Yeah, I'm not sure how smart the launchpad/apport crash dupe detector is. | 07:52 |
| pwnguin | well im not the only guy to find this | 07:53 |
| pwnguin | exact bug | 07:53 |
| pwnguin | if i file an apport bug as a dupe, where do the coredumps go? | 07:53 |
| sbeattie | Hrm, don't know. | 07:54 |
| pwnguin | i think i'll file and mark as dupe myself | 07:55 |
| pwnguin | just to be on the safe side | 07:55 |
| mouz | Saving https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBugDay/20080624 takes ages. | 07:58 |
| pwnguin | the wiki's pretty slow lately | 07:59 |
| mouz | yes: it is the whole wiki | 07:59 |
| mouz | it does not promote using the wiki | 08:02 |
| pwnguin | theres no mention of it on the ubuntu-doc mailing list =( | 08:06 |
| sbeattie | if you use editmoin, you'll see there's a lot of meta info in the page. | 08:13 |
| sbeattie | I suspect in every page, and that bloat quite likely slows down the save. | 08:13 |
| pwnguin | alrighty. well thanks for the help sbeattie | 08:15 |
| sbeattie | pwnguin: sure thing, and thanks for taking the effort to file the bug, even if it turns out to have been a dupe. | 08:15 |
| pwnguin | dupe or not | 08:15 |
| pwnguin | its still there | 08:15 |
| pwnguin | i will destroy this bug | 08:16 |
| pwnguin | (unless it turns out to be the javascript engine.) | 08:16 |
| pwnguin | sbeattie: ive got a question about dups for ya. is it common practice to mark dups invalid ("thanks for playing") and not indicate the bug it's a dupe of? | 08:17 |
| sbeattie | I'm not that much of an expert on how dupes are handled, but in most instances that I've seen, the bug it's a dupe of is referred to, so that people know where to comment appropriately. | 08:20 |
| pwnguin | because thats happened to me at least twice | 08:20 |
| sbeattie | I hope it's not a common practice, because it seems rather unhelpful. | 08:20 |
| pwnguin | indeed. | 08:21 |
| techno_freak | pwnguin, on the dupe bug, we mark it as dupe of.. so the parent bug will be referred for all improvements in future | 08:21 |
| snadge | didnt you know? the easiest way to get rid of bugs is to mark them as duplicates then not reference the duplicate ;) | 08:21 |
| pwnguin | hahah | 08:21 |
| techno_freak | heh | 08:21 |
| pwnguin | thats funny | 08:21 |
| pwnguin | because when i complained, seb said there were so many bugs, and they were so busy | 08:21 |
| pwnguin | but i can mark it myself | 08:22 |
| pwnguin | fun fact: there was no duplicate | 08:22 |
| snadge | yeah the other one is.. people have to care, the amount of times i've hit a bug.. found a report, and seen nothing but posts of tears and anguish.. is beyond laughable.. maybe i'm talking about ubuntu here ;) | 08:22 |
| pwnguin | what would be neat is what i call the quad dup | 08:24 |
| pwnguin | quad dup murge | 08:24 |
| pwnguin | two bugs in LP with independent bugs upstream. upstream marks one a dup of the other, LP could infer that it's two bugs are also dups | 08:25 |
| pwnguin | but i think bugs with upstream report links are still a vast minorty | 08:26 |

| dholbach | pedro_: if you have the time, could you check out http://wiki.ubuntu.com/RunningBugJam and see if it makes more sense now? (workflow, presentation, etc? | 14:30 |
| dholbach | it's still pretty brief, but I hope clearer | 14:30 |
| pedro_ | dholbach: ii'm on a conf call now, i'll check it in a bit ;-) | 14:30 |
| dholbach | pedro_: thanks a lot | 14:31 |
| pedro_ | dholbach: looks pretty good! | 14:56 |
| pedro_ | dholbach: do you think it's good to talk a bit (during the presentation) about bug importances? | 14:56 |
| pedro_ | difference between low and wishlist for example | 14:56 |
| pedro_ | just a quickie | 14:56 |
| dholbach | pedro_: sure - most people won't be allowed to set it, but it doesn't hurt explaining it | 14:57 |
| pedro_ | dholbach: well it's the same with some of the importances, like the wontfix one | 14:57 |
| dholbach | also that it's more of a tool to do prioritisation | 14:57 |
| dholbach | *nod* | 14:57 |
| dholbach | or 'triaged' | 14:57 |
| pedro_ | right | 14:57 |
| thekorn | dholbach, what about adding http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UpnAyzYXvwU to the 'material' section | 15:03 |

| bdmurray | Okay, we are trying to verify that it is fixed but I've no idea how to recreate the bug. So if you could help either verify the fix in the -proposed package or provide a test case that would help us out a lot. | 19:37 |
| ogra | well, that comment seems to say its not fixed | 19:38 |
| bdmurray | ogra: which comment? | 19:43 |
| sbeattie | ogra: that may be, but developing a test case for those of us who usually avoid tomboy like the plague would be a great help if and when it does actually get fixed. | 19:43 |
