cjwatsonkwwii: bug 286677, FYI00:03
ubottuLaunchpad bug 286677 in human-theme "[regression 0.28.3] /usr/share/themes/Human/gtk-2.0/gtkrc:273: Unable to locate image file in pixmap_path: "panel_bg.png"" [Medium,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/28667700:03
cjwatson(might not be as high as Medium, I don't know if it has other consequences)00:04
kwwiicjwatson: dooh, another stupid mistake00:06
kwwiicjwatson: easy to fix, silly to make, I made the source package from the wrong dir00:07
kwwiicjwatson: fixed first thing tomorrow00:07
kwwiiand I am kicking myself in the butt for not noticing00:07
cjwatsonkwwii: thanks00:07
cjwatsonkwwii: might not make RC at this point, what's the consequence of that?00:08
cjwatsonwe could probably slip it into final if the change is really easily reviewable00:08
kwwiicjwatson: if it causes a noticeable error somewhere it is worth fixing00:08
cjwatsonoh, I agree00:08
kwwiiand the fix is really easy, just remove the crap I added trying to work around the panel background stuff00:09
cjwatsonI was just wondering if it would cause the desktop to visibly explode or anything00:09
kwwiiI know exactly what I did, I just made the source package from the wrong dir00:09
kwwiireally, really dumb on my part00:09
cjwatsonmkdir empty && cd empty && dh_make? ;-)00:09
cjwatsonanyway, bed00:10
lamontsuperm1: ~/WHAT?00:10
kwwiicjwatson: well, I did change things after that change...more like re-applying the changes I added today to the bzr repo and making new source packages00:10
kwwiithis really makes me sorry for the work pitti did including it...he trusted me (I did not notice any problems but my system is so messed up in the meantime I doubt it notices anything)00:11
kwwiiI hope he is has as much patience as I do time to make mistakes00:11
kwwiicjwatson: thanks very much for noticing this and bringing it to my attention00:12
kwwiiI will fix it asap00:12
kwwiicjwatson: here is a new source package which fixes my (stupid) mistake:00:20
kwwiihttp://sinecera.de/human-theme_0.28.4_source.changes00:20
StevenKkwwii: A debdiff with the changes would help a lot00:22
kwwiiStevenK: the only difference is that I removed one definition of the panel bg (which I also forgot to add to bzr and therefor the problem)00:24
kwwiiI can recreate the old stuff (already changed it locally and added it to bzr)00:25
kwwiiif it is really important00:25
kwwiiI'll take care of this first thing tomorrow00:26
kwwiiin fact, I noticed I made the same mistake twcie00:26
kwwiitwice00:26
kwwiiignore that url, I will fix it tomorrow and include a debdiff00:27
kwwiisorry for the wasted time00:27
superm1lamont, ah sorry :) ~/.asoundrc00:31
lamontta00:31
superm1slangasek, i'm not convinced debian/shlibs.local will resolve this, as indicated by: http://paste.ubuntu.com/60304/plain/00:32
NCommanderah, superm100:33
NCommanderugh00:34
* NCommander twichs00:34
* NCommander checks the libstdc++ source package00:35
superm1well it provides the appropriate shlibs00:35
superm1but it's in universe and wont be available at package build time00:35
superm1so debian/shlibs.local was hopefully going to work around as necessary00:35
NCommandersuperm1, why do you need such an old libstdc++ ?00:36
superm1i dont, but AMD seems to think their library does00:37
superm1gotta work around their mess unfortunately00:37
NCommanderIs this a multiverse package we're talking about?00:37
superm1it's multiverse, but should be in restricted00:37
NCommanderI assume no source00:37
superm1once this is sorted out, the source package will be restricted00:37
superm1and the binary will be multiverse00:37
superm1yeah no source :(00:38
NCommander(why is it in multiverse?)00:38
NCommanderArgh00:38
NCommanderWhat is it specifically?00:38
superm1graphics driver and some acceleration libraries00:38
NCommanderOh00:38
NCommanderMore ick00:38
superm1the driver will be in restricted, the libraries in multiverse00:38
NCommanderIf its just premade binaries, why does it need to build depend, you can explicately set the depends if shlibs can't find it for some reason00:39
NCommanderor is it half source available, half no-source?00:39
kwwiiStevenK: the debdiff does not offer anything..the only change is two lines in two gtkrc's00:40
NCommander^- superm100:40
superm1NCommander, well it doesn't need build depends, but the shlibs should be checked dynamically because they can change release to release00:41
superm1NCommander, (and actually have in the past)00:41
superm1but i'm not sure why shlibs.local isn't overriding like it should be in this case00:41
NCommanderSimply build-dep on the non-dev package00:42
NCommanderThat will get the .shlib file installed from libstdc++3, but prevent gcc 3.3 from being pulled in00:42
NCommanderIts probably the sanest solution of the bunch00:43
superm1NCommander, well the problem is that all of gcc-3.3 is in universe00:43
NCommanderOH!00:44
NCommanderThe restricted package is the one tha thas the issue00:44
NCommanderThe only sane thing you can do is to promote libstdc++3 by itself. If the driver depends on it, I don't think you can work around that00:44
superm1well the idea was that the "source" package would live in restricted, and its binary graphics driver would too.  this library would be in multiverse and thus allowing libstdc++5 to be in universe still00:45
kwwiiStevenK, cjwatson: debdiff is apparently supposed to be run on the dsc files? I tried it with the debs but that spits out nothing00:46
NCommandersuperm1, *twich*00:46
superm1NCommander, yeah.  but this shlib-deps problem aside, it'd be a "functional" solution00:48
kwwiiStevenK, cjwatson: whereas the debdiff for the dsc files is this: http://sinecera.de/human_theme.debdiff00:48
kwwiiwhich shows the necessary changes00:48
brycesuperm1: tjaalton reviewed it; I think it needs tested/validated first to make sure it does indeed fix the issue00:48
NCommanderCan a package from main/restricted create binaries in universe/multiverse?00:48
NCommandersuperm1, thats against Debian policy for instance ...00:48
brycesuperm1: if you could test it and report that it does solve the issue, that would help00:48
NCommander(well, main/non-free, you can do main/contrib)00:49
superm1bryce, would you mind pushing it to a PPA?00:49
brycesuperm1: there was a small alteration timo suggested, to make it only pick -vesa on non-ppc, etc. that should be easy enough to add00:49
superm1NCommander, well slangasek said that would be okay to do.00:49
superm1NCommander, and actually i know of a package i already touch that does something like that00:50
superm1NCommander, the lirc source package is in main, and has a library in main.  it has a few binary packages in universe however00:50
NCommanderpoint taken00:50
ScottKNCommander: If any binary is in Main, the source needs to be in Main, but unneeded binaries can and should be in Universe.00:51
superm1NCommander, so these points aside, that error i posted, do you see anything blatant that stands out about what's wrong with that method of working around this?00:51
ScottKNCommander: See the Sendmail package for an example.00:51
NCommandersuperm1, give me a minute00:51
NCommanderI normall have issues groking shlibs files in general00:52
* NCommander whacks superm1 00:52
NCommanderwait00:52
* NCommander unwhacks00:52
kwwiiStevenK: is that debdiff good enough? (/me is just learning deb packaging, it is an honest question)00:56
superm1NCommander, so perplexing eh?01:04
NCommandersuperm1, what happens when you add -v to dpkg-shlibsdeps?01:05
superm1http://paste.ubuntu.com/60316/01:05
NCommanderUh01:05
* NCommander figured it out and promptly smacks superm101:06
NCommandershlibs.local requires the library to be installed01:06
superm1gah.01:06
NCommanderIt won't work if libstdc++5 isn't installed01:06
superm1well that's counterproductive then01:06
NCommandershlibs.local is designed to solve a very specific problem :-)01:07
superm1NCommander, okay well then I think the only solution is to hardcode the shlib dependencies, and -xlibAMD when running dpkg-shlibdeps01:07
superm1agreed?01:07
slangaseksuperm1: -Ldebian/shlibs.local should be unnecessary and may be confusing it01:45
superm1slangasek, i added that because it wasn't working01:46
superm1slangasek, but it's the same behavior without it there01:46
slangaseksuperm1: hmm.  ok, then it's failing because it wants to find the library first before honoring the shlibs; grr, I don't think it did that before buxy rewrote it01:47
superm1slangasek, well in any case, this library only has two shlibdeps anyhow, libc6 and libstdc++5.  will just have to watch in the future if that changes01:47
slangasekok01:48
superm1i caught another problem with ia32-libs similar by messing with this though, so it was a good exercise01:48
superm1i'll push it up01:48
slangaseksounds good01:48
kirklandanyone know why the manpages-posix-dev package is in multiverse?  <- cjwatson ?01:48
slangasekkirkland: it's in non-free in Debian and probably wasn't revisited?01:50
kirklandslangasek: yeah, hasn't been touched in ~3 years01:50
kirklandokay, it's not hurting anything ...  just dealing with some wonkiness for the manpage repository01:51
ScottKlool: Did you see there's a gedit-plugins upload pending?  Is it one we want?02:56
rascovIf I want to send a patch of GNU screen to Ubuntu official package, what should I do? (just porting new function from FreeBSD)04:32
persiarascov, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/HowToFix might be a good place to start.04:42
Chipzzrascov: also, #ubuntu-motu (cfr topic) ;)04:44
rascovpersia Chipzz: thanks :)04:45
Chipzzrascov: though the changelog mentions CVS head was merged at Jun 02, 200804:48
Chipzzdunnow how recent that new function is04:49
rascovIn Ubuntu, is there a person like port maintainer or commiter in FreeBSD ?04:52
ScottKrascov: In Ubuntu it's mostly done on a team basis rather than specific people for specific packages.04:55
rascovShould I contact the team if I wish to add a new function ?04:59
ScottKrascov: Generally the best thing is to file a bug against the package with your patch.04:59
RAOFHey, has nvidia-glx-96 been updated to actually work with Xserver 1.5?05:03
RAOFIt seems jockey is recommending nvidia-glx-96 to someone, and I thought we'd stopped doing that on the basis that it won't work.05:05
rascovScottK: I see, thanks05:09
tjaaltonsuperm1, bryce: also, the patch should be verified to not force vesa when not using an xorg.conf05:15
RAOFIn fact, why are the nvidia-glx-{96,78} in the archives at all?05:15
RAOFAre we hoping nvidia will release a drivers that support 7.4 and we can push them in?05:16
tjaalton"they are working on it"05:18
tjaaltonor something like that05:18
tjaaltoncorrect quote would be; aaronp: "I'm working on it"05:19
tjaaltonbut who knows when that happens05:19
RAOFIndeed.  What do we _do_ about this?05:21
* tjaalton twiddles thumbs05:22
RAOFThere are currently two large packages in the archives which do nothing but break 3d.05:22
tjaaltonI think they are waiting there for an SRU05:22
ScottKRAOF: xserver-xorg-video-radeonhd isn't one of those packages is it?05:25
superm1just like fglrx was going to wait for an SRU if it ever came05:26
RAOFScottK: No; that can only break 3d for people with ATI cards; nvidia-glx breaks it for _everyone_ :P05:26
ScottKAh.05:26
RAOFAnd that driver also has the advantage of a possibility of working.05:27
ScottKBecause there was a user, who I generally consider reliable, who reported 1.2.3 working with 3D05:27
RAOFI don't know if our mesa is new enough for that, but I believe the very latest radeonhd _05:28
RAOF+ mesa + drm _does_ do 3d.05:28
tjaaltonradeon/radeonhd for r5xx has had 3d since mesa-7.1, and we have 7.205:41
dholbachgood morning05:49
RAOFtjaalton: Really?  Cool.  You learn something new everyday :)05:52
RAOFAnd forget it just as quickly, sadly.05:53

StevenKpitti: Could you be tempted to approve my linux-lpia upload? :-)07:53
pittikirkland: ok, I'll reply in the bug07:55
pittikirkland: done08:01
pittiStevenK: why doesn't linux-lpia simply depend on linux-firmware instead of shipping a copy?08:01
slangasekisn't that exactly what it does?08:01
StevenKpitti: It does08:01
slangasekpitti: sorry, just accepted linux-lpia-meta08:02
pittiStevenK: ah, then the changelog is confusing08:02
pittislangasek: no problem, I was just curious about what it actually does08:02
StevenKIt meant the binary packages linux-lpia{,compat}08:02
* StevenK looks at the NBS list for libcamel08:03
pittiStevenK: you mean you moved the dependency to another package?08:03
StevenKpitti: It moved from linux-lpia to linux-image-lpia, to mirror what linux-meta does08:03
pittiStevenK: right, that makes sense08:04
pittilool: libvisual-plugins pulls in jack, that needs to be dropped when moving it to main08:05
mdkeif someone could sponsor an upload for bug 286829 I'd be grateful08:06

pittikwwii: no problem; well, I didn't upload it completely blindly, I built, installed, and restarted my session, and it still looked okay :)08:06
pittikwwii: anyway, you need to tell me what this bug is actually all about; to me, it just looks like if someone used the temporarily broken package with the wrong file name "Darkroom", he'd get that on upgrade08:07
loolpitti: Ok08:07
pittikwwii: looking at your new package now08:07
pittiStevenK: libcamel NBS> eww GNOME 2.24.108:08
StevenKpitti: Yes.08:08
pittiStevenK: libtotem-parser is part of gnome, so seb128 will do that himself08:09
slangasekit's already done08:09
pittibut we should do that evolution-jescs thing08:09
pittislangasek: oh, great08:09
* StevenK removes totem from his list08:09
StevenKMy no-change rebuild of evolution-jescs builds08:10
StevenKJust waiting for mail-notification and I can upload them08:11
slangasekthough it was done a bit later than the rest of the stuff in main, so there was an intervening CD run that's oversized because it has two copies of libcamel on it :-P08:11
StevenKHah08:11
pittikwwii: I added (LP: #286677) to the changelog, please do in bzr, too; before I upload this, can you please explain why the bg_pixmap definition was introduced, and why removing it is the right thing?08:12
mdkeslangasek: how tight is CD space at the moment? the recent build i did of the new version of ubuntu-docs is 1.7MB bigger than the version in the archive08:13
mdkeslangasek: if that's a problem, we'd have to look at reducing the package08:15
StevenKpitti, slangasek: Both my no-change rebuilds build locally, uploading them.08:15
slangasekmdke: we have approximately zero space for new stuff - why are the docs so much bigger suddenly?08:17
=== viviersf{gone} is now known as viviersf
mdkeslangasek: basically, ubuntu-docs ships translations which are 40% translated or more, that means that in the import of translations I did from Rosetta, people have made a lot of progress on translation08:17
mdkeslangasek: we can try adjusting the figure of 40% upwards in order to reduce the package08:17
slangasekmdke: and they're not shipped in separate binary packages?08:18
mdkeslangasek: no, it's all in ubuntu-docs08:18
slangasekmdke: what this comes down to is that in order to find you 1.7MB of free space on the CDs for the doc translations, I would have to drop langpacks08:18
slangasekthat doesn't sound like a winning trade to me08:19
StevenKpitti: How can I debug why CK run in Xsession.d doesn't set DISPLAY or active?08:19
mdkeslangasek: I guess we should try and see how big ubuntu-docs works out with shipping translations which are 50% complete, rather than 40%08:19
pittireallistically, a 40% complete documentation pretty much requires the reader to understand English anyway..08:20
mdkeyes, I wouldn't have a problem with going up, even to 60%08:20
pittiI thought for that reason we set the bar to like 70% earlier?08:20
pittibut yeah, I'm fine with adjusting it to min(sanity,cd space)08:20
mdkeit's always been 40% in previous releases, mainly to encourage translations, but if there is an issue with disk space, it makes sense to increase it08:21
pittiStevenK: is $DISPLAY actually set in 90consolekit?08:21
mdkeslangasek: unfortunately, ubuntu-docs takes about an hour to build and I have to go to work, but I will leave it running a couple of test builds at 50, 60, and 70%08:21
StevenKpitti: Lemme check08:22
mdkeslangasek, pitti: I guess I'll drop the request for sponsoring until that further investigation is done08:24
StevenKpitti: Yes, it is set08:25
StevenKpitti: As in, stuffing a echo "$DISPLAY" > /tmp/foo in 90consolekit results in :008:25
emgentmorning people08:27
pittijames_w: the CK fix sounds like an excellent SRU candidate08:56
pittiStevenK: hm; then I'm afraid this needs a gdb session08:56

slangasekyes, those big evil fat CD things09:00
seb128slangasek: hey09:00
* slangasek waves09:00
seb128so I'm not clear what we should do from now09:00
pittiStevenK: how do you start X?09:00
StevenKpitti: Via startx09:00
pittiStevenK: from an init script?09:01
loolpitti: I'm pretty sure it's the xinit support i'm pointing at in the bug report09:01
StevenKpitti: An upstart script09:01
loolStevenK: Check out xinit from git and see whether they merged support for CK09:01
loolit should be reverted from xinit, it can not work from there09:01
pittiStevenK: the only other thing that creates sessions I'm aware of is libpam-ck-connector09:01
seb128slangasek: will some updates be accepted after rc and should we work on SRUing now?09:01
pittilool: yes, I agree; wasn't aware of that09:01
pittibut there shouldn't be a PAM session in upstart scripts or init scripts, so that wouldn't be it09:02
loolI commented as such in the upstream bug, but I bet they merged the patch nevertheless09:02
seb128slangasek: the new pidgin (changelog on http://developer.pidgin.im/wiki/ChangeLog) for example09:02
slangasekseb128: some will be accepted after RC, to be sure; including the bits of GNOME that haven't made it through yet09:02
loolpitti: Actually we use "su"09:02
seb128slangasek: ok thanks09:02
pittilool: !09:02
loolSo there might be a pam session09:02
pittilool: that uses PAM09:02
StevenKMaybe we want to use su - -l09:02
loolNo09:03
loolpitti: is pam-ck the default nowadays?09:03
pittilool: yes09:03
loolohh09:04
loolthat's probably the issue then09:04
pitti/etc/pam.d/common-session09:04
pittisessionoptionalpam_ck_connector.so nox1109:04
pittieww, seems weechat doesn't like tabs09:04
loolThen we can simply clear the CK session when launching startx; env ignore or seomthing09:04
loolStevenK: Try with env -u XDG_SESSION_COOKIE in the upstart job09:05
pittilool: that would be a working hack, I just wonder why ck-connector should be made more clever09:05
StevenKlool: Geh? In which bit?09:05
loolpitti: Hmm what we would need is for the Xsession.d script to check whether there's a running CK session and provision the DISPLAY info in it09:05
loolInstead of just considering presence/abscence of a running session09:06
pittiright09:06
pittisince we're going to start a new one for a different tty09:06
loolStevenK: /etc/event.d/session; use env -u XDB... between su and startx09:06
StevenKHm. That didn't seem to help, and I still have XDG_SESSION_COOKIE in the env dump09:08
* StevenK forcibly restarts the job09:08
StevenKlool: "env -u XDG_SESSION_COOKIE; startx -- -br" doesn't look to help09:12
loolStevenK: Without ;09:13
StevenKThat seems to give me a session that sets x11-display09:14
loolStevenK: is it active?09:14
StevenKYes09:15
* StevenK checks if he can mount a USB key09:15
StevenKI can! \o/09:16
StevenKpitti: Does that hack not make you ill?09:16
pittiStevenK: It's not exactly aesthetically pleasing, but *shrug*, if it works :)09:18
pittiStevenK: my preferred solution would be to fix 90consolekit to call ck-launch-session if there's an existing cookie which does not belong to an X11 one09:19
pittibut mapping cookies to sessions isn't possible as normal user09:19
pittiso we'd need some proper support for this in CK itself09:20
pittijames_w: ah, that CK test case works tremendously well09:20
StevenKpitti: Sure, so this is a last-minute OMG-it-works-ship-it hack09:21
pittiStevenK: absolutely fine for me09:22
loolStevenK: Hmm where do you say you get this?  in mid?09:28
loolStevenK: it's not supposed to pull libpam-ck-connector09:28
loolIt's derived from minimal, not desktop-common09:28
StevenKlool: Yes09:28
loolStevenK: Is this a recent install, or an upgraded system?09:28
StevenKlool: This is the most recent daily09:28
loolI think it's worth fixing it for systems with libpam-ck-connector (like mine, I use startx!)09:29

kirklandpitti: i think you're right...  replace that symlink with a small readme of FAQ14:55
amitkogra: it is usually for new hw enablement. We used it to provide alsa backports for Hardy. No plans to do that for intrepid yet.14:56
pittikirkland: oh, the symlink idea is nice as well, though14:56
kirklandpitti: right now, it's just an "informatively named" symlink to the binary that will try to mount your data again14:56

pittikirkland: hm, that provides clickable mounting which is nice indeed14:56
ograthats the scary part :)14:56
kirklandpitti: that's the idea ;-)14:56
amitkogra: i know. lbm will never have guarantees. But lets see if this motivates rtg to backport all this into the kernel by default14:57
kirklandpitti: because your login passphrase never made it into your keyring, the clicky after autologin doesn't work14:57
pittikirkland: ah, it uses gnome-keyring?14:57
kirklandpitti: no14:57
ograamitk, is there a kernel update planned before release ?14:57

kwwiiKeybuk: nope, setting a panel bg just causes a bug in the about panel and stuff so although we include a bg I did not set it in the theme itself15:02
pittikirkland: if clicking on that magic symlink would pop up a dialog which explains what's going on and asks me for my password, and then mounts ~/Private, why whould that be bad?15:03
kirklandpitti: ooooooh.....15:03
pittikirkland: leaving aside security aspects of how to design the dialog, and how to implement it in general15:03
kirklandpitti: sure, that sounds find15:03
kirklandfine, even15:03
pittikirkland: just how it would loook to the user15:03
kirklandpitti: the user could do it, by running ecryptfs-insert-wrapped-passphrase-into-keyring, and then mount.ecryptfs_private15:04

amitkpgraner: it works with lbm. I am currently diffing the in-kernel ath5k code with lbm ath5k to see how big15:15
loolpgraner: I understand we don't have any new kernel upload anymore15:15
tseliotkirkland: no, I guess not. There's a kde equivalent too15:15
amitklool: we DO have a kernel upload, maybe not before RC15:15
loolamitk: Ok; good news then15:15
pittikirkland: gksu -p -m "Foobarize your system" works quite well indeed15:16
kirklandtseliot: pitti: okay, i'm straying much further away from the server, and from intrepid responsibilities, i fear ;-)15:16
ograpgraner, the question is simply will we have another kernel upload before final15:16
pittikirkland: heh, yes; let's keep all this for jaunty15:16
ograpgraner, where the fixed ath5k could be included15:16
kirklandpitti: i'll revisit then15:16

pittioh, wait...15:16
kirklandpitti: :-)15:16
pgranerogra, lool, amitk: I'll know more later today15:17
loolamitk: The solution of pushing an ath5k update in the RC is good for me; otherwise, I recommend disabling ath5k for everybody until it works for everybody; I'm not sure the claims that it worked for some eeepc users in some network configs are enough to have preference for athh5k and break wifi for others15:17
mvoRiddell: what can/should we do about virtualbox-ose and kde upgrades? my suggestion would be to have "virtualbox-ose-legacy" that can read the old snapshots and make the default of the debconf question to not fail15:17
lools/in the RC/after RC15:17
loolOtherwise, I can also imaging including a fixed ath5k in the first intrepid-updates kernel if taht's early enough15:17
lool*imagine damn15:17
amitklool: NAK. madwifi _doesn't_ work for some people, but ath5k works. So disabling it is not an option.15:17

kirklandjdstrand: users are entering their login password (twice, mind you) incorrectly17:18
kirklandjdstrand: and moaning about encrypted private not being mountable17:19
jdstrandheh17:19
kirklandjdstrand: grep -r unix_chkpwd on the gnome-screensaver source doesn't turn up any hits17:25
kirklandjdstrand: nor does pam_unix17:25
jdstrandkirkland: src/gs-auth-helper.c17:28
* calc wishes he had a faster connection17:29
calcdownloading isos takes a long time :\17:29
jdstrandkirkland: ext_run()17:29
jdstrandkirkland: the source has 'PASSWD_HELPER_PROGRAM' which ends up being unix_chkpwd for us17:30
kirklandjdstrand: hmm17:30
jdstrandkirkland: you'd likely want to do the same since you're an upstream17:30
kirklandjdstrand: can i do something like this in shell?17:30
kirklandjdstrand: sure17:30
kirklandjdstrand: but ecryptfs-setup-private is shell code17:30
kirklandjdstrand: running unix_chkpwd from the command line get's a slap on the wrist17:31
jdstrandkirkland: oh yeah (I keep forgetting which is shell and which is C)17:31
jdstrandkirkland: it has to be invoked correctly, and is careful not to put the password on the command line17:32
jdstrand(which ends up in proc)17:32
kirklandjdstrand: right17:32
jdstrandkirkland: I messed with that from shell a while ago, and ended up writing a small C program for it17:33
cr3is there some command line utility to manage /etc/gdm/gdm.conf17:34
ogracody-somerville, does /cdrom/dists/intrepid/universe exist on xubuntu CDs ?17:34
ogra(or rather dists/intrepid/universe)17:34
cody-somervilleogra, for live or alternat?17:35
ogracody-somerville, alternate, i'm trying to fix a ltsp build failure without breaking xubuntu :)17:35
ograsince i need universe in xubuntu but dont have it on ubuntu CDs17:35
jdstrandkirkland: one option for you is to write a small C wrapper for unix_chkpwd and accept input from stdin, then you could do 'echo pass | wrapper ...'. this is safe for us because 'echo' is a shell builtin for dash and bash17:45
kirklandjdstrand: k17:45
kirklandjdstrand: i'll have a look at that17:45
jdstrandkirkland: beyond that, I don't have anything otoh17:46

superm1pitti / slangasek, tjaalton mentioned that the nv chosen when it shouldn't be bug was going to be a post-rc fix.  is there anything that i'd be able to do in helping test the fix or verify it's not breaking that would allow it to go in at RC instead?17:55
cjwatsonmvo: are the language-selector changes I just committed OK, do you think?17:56
calccan you do an inverted status search?18:07
calceg -TRIAGED to get all but triaged bugs?18:07
james_wcalc: advanced search has a checkbox for each status18:08
pittisuperm1: it's not a matter of testing, it's a matter of respinning CDs18:08
calcoh ok so i just have to check each one except for what i want to leave out?18:08

mvocjwatson: please upload it, I have nothing for language-selector pending right now18:17
pitticjwatson: do you have any idea why po-debconf should recommend: libmail-sendmail-perl ?18:19

ogra(whom do i have to talk to for an ltsp-client-builder fix that breaks alternate ?)18:23
pittiogra: is it OMGbreakingeverything?18:23
ograpitti, it is "breaks ltsp builds completely"18:24
pittiogra: respinning is *very* expensive, so everything which isn't essential for installation -> post-RC18:24

ograit works fine for non CD builds but due to the fact of universe not being on ubuntu CDs it breaks there18:39

pitticjwatson: ah, libmail-sendmail-perl has no further dependencies and 0 bugs, I'll just review and promote it18:54
superm1pitti, given the RC DVD hasn't been created yet (AFAIK), will it be possible to adjust the components for the pieces of fglrx pre-rc so that it can now get included on that RC DVD, or will that need to be post-rc too?19:01
pittisuperm1: that should be possible, since it will be a while until we can actually build DVDs19:01
pittislangasek: ^ ok for you, too?19:01
slangasekyes, that's ok with me19:02
slangasekthat needs to be re-seeded somewhere?19:02
pittisuperm1: is it already seeded?19:02
superm1pitti, no it's not seeded yet. we were waiting for it to be in the right component before breaking the DVD again19:02

pittisuperm1: ok, I think I sorted out the remaining overrides (fglrx-modaliases -> main, libamdxvba1 -> multiverse, rest -> restricted)19:10
superm1pitti, well fglrx-amdcccle doesn't need to be restricted i dont think.  it's equivalent for nvidia (nvidia-settings), where's that live?19:10
pittisuperm1: main :)19:11
superm1pitti, ah okay :)19:11
pittisuperm1: it's GPL and needed for both universe and restricted pacakges19:11

loolkees: Weird, I tested yesterday and it worked19:44
slangasekogra, tjaalton: I'm skeptical of accepting the fix for bug #282203 at this stage; it's my understanding that hotplug doesn't work well for tablets no matter what you do, and it sounds like re-adding the fdi will cause regressions for users on upgrade19:44
ubottuLaunchpad bug 282203 in wacom-tools "Wacom tablet hotplug is no longer enabled by default" [Medium,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/28220319:44

loolkees: Works just fine here19:45
tjaaltonslangasek: well, regression when upgrading from hardy, yes19:48
tjaaltonslangasek: if they use more than just the stylus19:49
slangasektjaalton: which I understand the kind of users who have tablets tend to do :-)19:49
mvoliw: did my snippet not work?19:50
liwmvo, cache._depcache.ReadPinFile("/var/lib/synaptic/preferences")19:50
liwmvo, that works, but what do I do next?19:50
tjaaltonslangasek: yeah, your call :)19:50
mvoliw: that should be all required, no?19:51
liwmvo, my code (based on your initial code) checks for isInstalled, installedDownloadable, candidateDownloadable, and _pkg.VersionList -- based on those, it still determines that the package is cruft19:53
loolkees: Could you check your upgrade logs and see which package regressed here?  I'm using libv4l 0.5.1 BTW19:53
keeslool: hrm, after a full update and reboot, it seems fine.19:57
keeslool: I must have seen some kind of intermediate breakage.19:57
loolpitti: Supposedly, gstreamer-plugins-ugly is just to play the format supported only by plugins in this package; I'm downgrading to suggests as well19:57
keeslool: sorry for the false alarm  :P19:57
tseliotpitti: yes, we don't need the fglrx -dev package19:58
tseliotsuperm1, pitti: from what I remember amdcccle is proprietary19:58
liwif I want to programmatically sort a list of kernel packages into order by version number, and they follow the linux-image-$VERSION pattern, I can just sort the package names, right?19:58
pittitseliot: yes, the question was just about restricted vs. multiverse19:58
loolkees: Some people seemed to say that the cam would only work once19:58
loolkees: I suspect it needs clean shutdown or something19:59
pittitseliot: it's in restricted now, since xorg-driver-fglrx recommends it19:59
pittilool: ok, thanks; so that, promote libvisual-plugins, and drop jack from the latter is the way to go now?19:59
loolpitti: jack is shlibs borkeness I think19:59
tseliotpitti: yes, it should stay in restricted20:00
mvoliw: hm20:01
mvoliw: let me update the code20:01
tseliotpitti: I mean, good choice20:01
loolpitti: What's the path between libvisual and jack?  bdeps?20:01
loolI don't like removing jack this late, it could break ubuntu studio or something20:02
loolActually the bdep is suspicious, I see references to jack in the upstream code, but no dep20:03
pittilool: yes, it b-deps on it; curiously enough it doesn't seem to *binary*-depend on jack20:03
loolYeah, I suspect the configure check fails for some reason20:04
loollooking at build log20:04
keeslool: works multiple times for me, even after a -9 kill.20:04
loolchecking for LIBJACK... yes20:04

superm1pitti, post rc, i'm going to have an extra hook to add for bluetooth stuff that's used in pm-suspend.  would you rather see it land in the bluez package for now as a patch, or in the pm-utils package as a patch?  I'm been waiting for the pm-utils maintainer to ack it before i brought it up, but it's looking like that might not happen in time20:11
loolpitti: Frankly libvisual-plugins is not the cleanest; I got lintian errors and last upload in Debian was a year ago (albeit there's no reported bugs and it's the latest upstream version), the upstream site is more or less broken20:29

sleoni have a problem, that after i hibernated my computer, it stopped starting with acpi mode on20:34
ograslangasek, well, its a "at least something that works" approach i'd say20:47
slangasekogra: you're saying that it's better to handle it through evdev?20:48
slangaseker, s/evdev/hotplug/20:48
ograwell, hal-input is the future20:48
ograso you would have at least something that works with the desired model20:48
slangasekbut it would still be a regression for hardy users; there's no reason we need to ship every available bit of the "future" in a release, if it gives an inferior user experience20:49
ograi plan to put up a howto for touchscreen users for which i havent gotten evtouch data yet to create .fdi files, i assume that could be extended for wacom users and how to set up your device20:49
ograthough for touchscreens *everything* is an improvement to the former situation ...20:50
ograthe prob is that the actual regression is between gutsy and hardy20:50
ografor wacom20:51
slangasekhowso?20:51
ograwe shipped all the tablet default sections in gutsy, they were dropped because users without wacom devices complained about the warnings in the xorg logs20:51
ograso hardy didnt ship any default sections for wacom users and they had to set them up theirselves20:52
slangasekok, but anyone who had configured their tablet manually in X for hardy is now going to have it broken again if we enable this fdi file20:52
ograright20:52

slangasekwe might as well leave the package as it is and release note everything, I think20:53

ograrelease notes pointing to a howto that explains how to create a fdi file20:53
seb128hi RainCT20:53
ograwell, the trasition will have to happen anyway, we just postpone the prob20:54
pgranerslangasek: we need to upload one more kernel to address some last min issues, rtg is ready any time, wanted to make sure it was cool with you before we proceeded20:54
ograand with the request to users to file their created .fdi files jaunty would have all data available early20:54
pgranerslangasek: not an abi bumper, just some regression cherry picks and a few device enablers that are isolated and not a big risk20:55
slangasekogra: the problem only exists because we have incomplete support for these devices via hotplug, and should be resolved for jaunty; we can do that just as well without breaking the hardy->upgrade path for users...20:55
slangasekpgraner: which last-minute issues?20:55
ograslangasek, well, currently all i hear is that it doesnt work on upgrades either20:55
RainCTseb128: I've added .ephy-extension.in to po/POTFILES.in but running "intltools-update -p" doesn't include the strings for _Name nor _Description from it into the .pot. Any idea what could be wrong? (It's up on lp:epiphany-extensions-extra, if you want to look).20:56
ograjuliux is a typical candidate here btw20:56
slangasekogra: I'd like some solid confirmation of that in the form of a bug report20:56
slangasekogra: I'm not going to risk breaking the upgrade path based on hearsay20:56
ograjuliux ^^^ mind adding info to the bug ?20:56
mdkepitti, slangasek: on ubuntu-docs, shipping translations with 70% translation or more results in a package size of 2.9MB (as against 2.3MB the current archive version). How does that sound?20:56
pgranerslangasek: XFS barrier support, intel G45 motherboard support20:56
seb128RainCT: I'm not a libtool wizard and I've other things to debug but it might use the filename, you said that was a .desktop before20:57
juliuxhm?20:57
ograslangasek, i personally wasnt involved in tablets at all i only looked after touchscreens, i'm wiling to do so for jaunty though but wasnt aware o wacom probs until very recently20:57
slangasekpgraner: do you have a bug number for that latter issue?  Anyway we are at this point not going to be able to get it in for RC without a lot of pain; I'm not happy with the idea of pushing a new kernel between RC and final either, but probably will if that's what we have to work with20:57
slangasekpgraner: there are also a number of other targeted and milestoned linux bugs, such as bug #259157 and bug #284354 - are those in progress somewhere?20:58

seb128RainCT: dunno what is similar to a .desktop, what I said was for a desktop before20:59
pgranerslangasek: 259157 won't happen before RC ath5k is a mess upstream and we don't have good answer other than it is going to go as is and we'll hopefully get it cleaned up in a update20:59
RainCTseb128: that it also has Name and Description entries, and epiphany-extensions is doing it like that too (but using autotools)21:00
* ogra likes to note that he is massively unhappy about that we wont release ubuntu-mobile with working wireless for most mobile users that way21:00
slangasekpgraner: will 259157 happen /after/ RC, then?  if so, I think we're better off with a single kernel upload for the lot, instead of breaking our necks to get one in pre-RC and then having another post-RC21:00

loolpitti: I pushed a bunch of libvisual-plugins uploads, as I got hooked into fixing it's packaging; I think the package is quiet upstream and in Debian, working decently in its current version, and not risky security wise, so I think we can promote it as being relatively pure logic; the two inputs currently enabled are alsa and mplayer, so I think there's no high risk here21:05

ograamitk, with the ath5k from lbm everything works flawless21:26
seb128RainCT: rigjht, I was just asking in case he had a look to what setting exactly there is creating the issue21:26
ograamitk, currently by default two drivers are loaded for the same device21:26
amitkogra: ath5k in lbm is ok. but it is _NOT_ going to be integrated into the kernel21:27
ograamitk, right, but i dont see a sane way of intregrating lbm in the default seeds21:27
slangasekamitk: btw, an 'ubuntu-8.10-beta' milestone for this bug is definitely unrealistic at this point :-)21:27
amitkso going by that assumption, your only choice is madwifi21:27

pittirtg, BenC1: hm, CDROM_DRIVE_STATUS is evil in the intrepid kernel (bug 283316); you don't happen to know about this, and whether this is considered a bug or a feature?21:29
ubottuLaunchpad bug 283316 in hal "intrepid - ejected dvd media is inserted right back in" [High,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/28331621:29
ograamitk, i'll discuss it with lool but i think we agree that we would be unhappy of carrying lbm as a dep of any of the meta packages21:30
ograthe change wouldnt happen before RC anyway21:30
rtgpitti: I noticed you have to be pretty quick.21:31
slangasekamitk, pgraner: when was the decision made to target this bug to intrepid?  it looks like the first follow-up from the kernel team was about 10 hours ago; if this had been discussed with the release team sooner we could have planned to include it in the CD pulse that we're halfway through at the moment, now I instead have to evaluate whether this change alone justifies rerolling everything or else waiting to batch it with other pending fixes21:31
amitkogra: noted. And kernel team agrees that shipping a new ath5k at this stage is not a option because all the drivers will have to be bumped up to match the headers required by new ath5k21:31
ograall solutions apart from getting teh working driver from lbm into mainline are resulting in releasing a broken wlan support for final21:31
pittirtg: I was just told about it today; my laptop's external CD drive can't mechanically close, so I never noticed myself so far21:31
ograwhich is very odd as it will lose us people from the community which was our (or rather my) main focus for this release with the mobile image21:32
slangasekamitk, pgraner: also, is EXA default on this hardware?21:32
slangaseks/on this hardware/with this driver/21:32
rtgpitti: same here (no mechanical door)21:32
amitkslangasek: it was brought to my attention a few hours ago. So not a long time has passed. And the patch seemed fairly simple and straight-forward21:32
amitkslangasek: but I would be willing to pull it from the kernel release if it is causing major headaches.21:33
pittirtg: so given that the documentation says that there is a possible CDS_TRAY_OPEN, I'd consider this a bug21:33
slangasekamitk: the question isn't whether the patch is straightforward; there's a larger picture here21:33
rtgpitti: I do have a couple with drive motors somewhere. I'll test it.21:33
amitkslangasek: agreed. I didn't see that picture and stand rebuked.21:34
slangasekamitk: re-rolling all the CDs for a kernel fix is costly when we're this close to RC; it costs us time for the actual builds, and it also costs us testing resources21:34
rtgpitti: I remember a patch to the eject package awhile back. I wonder if that messed something up.21:35
pittirtg: no, it's not related to that21:35
jcristauslangasek: yes, exa is the default. i'm not sure it's relevant to the bug though.21:36
pittirtg: I updated the bug title and added a comment21:36
pittirtg: I'm looking for an upstream bug now, and try to find the commit that changed it21:36
=== BenC1 is now known as BenC
pittirtg, BenC: oh, do we use a different kernel driver for CD-ROMs in intrepid? ide-cd vs. some SCSI emulation thingy?21:40
rtgpitti: its possible, I haven't followed the SCSI layer very closely.21:41
BenCpitti: there's ide-cd and sr_mod, but they both use cdrom.ko for low level, IIRC21:42
pittiide-cd.ko exists in hardy, but not in intrepid21:42
slangasekamitk, pgraner: ok, please go ahead with the linux upload with those two fixes (285779 and 285572); I haven't decided yet whether to accept those packages before RC, but I will definitely try to if the opportunity presents iself21:42
slangasekitself21:42
cody-somervilleslangasek, btw, if you're considering rerolling the rc, I'm in favour.21:42
cody-somervilleWe forgot to update our docs so everything still says 8.0421:43
cody-somervilleWell, we didn't forget, we were waiting on someone but they didn't come through21:43
slangasekcody-somerville: I assume you mean xubuntu?  We can do individual rerolls with much less pain21:43
pittiBenC: there is a related commit (not for this bug, though) which seems to indicate that ide-cd and SCSI use different ioctl implementations: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=210ba1d1724f5c4ed87a2ab1a21ca861a915f73421:43

slangasekcody-somerville: are the fixed docs uploaded? :)21:44
cody-somervilleslangasek, Okay. I'm going to sponsor NCommander's upload once it is ready and then I'd like to reroll Xubuntu.21:44
BenCpitti: hmm...well, unless something changed in sr_mod between hardy and intrepid, nothing should be different21:44
slangasekcody-somerville: ok - the actual reroll will probably be held until we have a decision on the kernel stuff21:44
BenCpitti: I doubt many people were using ide-cd in hardy21:45
pgranerslangasek: ack21:45
BenCslangasek: I might have something partial done...tracking down all this firmware is difficult21:45
rtgslangasek: you'll get some other baggage in the kernel upload for free. I pulled in the stable tree updates from 2.6.27.2 a couple of days ago.21:45
pittiBenC: ah, so we were using sr_mod in hardy, too? that's a good data point21:45
slangasekBenC: understood... :)  Even if you don't think you'll have it all tracked down for final, please plan to upload at least a partial fix21:46
BenCpitti: Oh yeah, most ATA controllers were handled by libata and not ide.ko as far back as feisty21:46
BenCslangasek: deadline?21:46
slangasekBenC: Sunday, for best results21:47
BenCslangasek: No problem then21:47
pittiBenC: hm, I'm a bit lost then; above git commit was actually the last change to sr_ioctl.c, and it happened in January (thus hardy should have it)21:53
pittisuperm1: having the patch in pm-utils is fine, at least for intrepid (if upstream refuses it, we have to re-negotiate  it)22:00
superm1pitti, okay, i've put the debdiff on a bug and subscribed ubuntu-release for now then, and i'll plan to upload after rc and someone on release looks at it22:02
