bdmurraycjwatson: I found a virtual machine (from sometime this week) in the same state as bug 288479 - would the log files from it be helpful?16:07
ubottuLaunchpad bug 288479 in ubiquity "Ubuntu 8.10rc Desktop amd64 - lots of files with gid 999" [Undecided,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/28847916:07
cjwatsonbdmurray: please16:13
bdmurraycjwatson: I'ved added syslog is that sufficient?16:42
cjwatsonbdmurray: should be16:49
cjwatsoncan't get to LP at the moment FROM MILLBANK. argh16:49
cjwatsonevand: I think I have a much better set of fairly safe optimisations; for me it brings it down from 18 minutes to 5 minutes17:46
cjwatsonwhich is still a lot but it's better17:46
CIA-1ubiquity: cjwatson * r2921 ubiquity/scripts/install.py: better (and more correct!) blacklist optimisations17:57
holstbusy bees here :)18:28
persiaI just did an install on a machine that aleady was dual-boot vista/intrepid.  migration wizard asks me about importing settings from Windows, but not from the other Intrepid install (machine will be triple boot).  Is this a bug?18:49
holstlol18:55
holstmaybe its called "migration" by a reason18:55
holstbut it would be nice to backup your old /home and stuff18:56
persiaholst, That's why I asked, rather than just filing a bug :)18:56

superm1evand, I've been trying to preseed an all inclusive list of languages so that there is not any removed when doing a DVD install.  it seems that by doing this, incomplete-language-support-gnome's update-notifier note keeps getting triggered.  would this possibly be because of these -extra ones: http://paste.ubuntu.com/62226/ ?23:24
superm1and if so, will those be destined for entering main and on the DVD livefs?23:25
persiasuperm1, While this doesn't answer your question, I believe they are specifically in universe to keep them off the CDs, although I may be misterpreting when reading between the lines of IRC traffic.23:26
superm1persia, well it looks like they are marked as "Suggests" for their main packages23:27
superm1if that was the argument for them, I think it would still have been sensible to have them in main and on the DVD livefs still23:28
superm1I'm still not sure if they're what would be triggering this incomplete language support23:28
persiasuperm1, Like I said, I might be misinterpreting.23:28
superm1I'm not really sure if this is the "right" way to find the list of packages that go on the DVDs, since it spits out such a large result23:35
superm1http://paste.ubuntu.com/62237/23:35
superm1but I figured that should cover everything based on what the seed is matching: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-dev/ubuntu-seeds/ubuntu.intrepid/annotate/1369?file_id=dvdlive-20080214004143-ufrdyo921dmq6t16-123:36
persiawouldn't examining the manifest and list files give you a more correct picture of what happened to be on the DVD the day it was built, rather than what happens to be in the apt-cache you're polling?23:38
superm1that's probably a good idea23:39
superm1well this apt-cache was from an up to date intrepid, so i was assuming it would be close to accurate23:39
persiaPerhaps close, but not necessarily the particular combination of apt-cache state at the time of livefs creation + the possibly slightly different state at the time of pool construction.23:41
superm1well the pool wouldn't matter though - it's just the things in the livefs I'd think23:41
superm1in any case i'll grep the manifest and match it up there23:42
persia(factoring in that the buildds don't have network access, so there's a delay)23:42
persiaI think for non-remove you only care about the livefs, but you might pull from the pool if it's required for one of the selected installer options (depends on your preseeding).23:42
superm1well passing that same long awk/grep command on the manifest i still get 411 languages23:43
persiaI know langpacks on the desktop CD sit in pool/ and get installed after livefs copy.23:43
persiaThat's close to the number that would be registered in the relevant ISO standard (639?)23:44
superm1well actually i guess i'm not counting duplicates with that23:46
superm1let me mess with this a little more then23:46
superm1in any case, evand if you have any recommendations on what is triggering that, i'm all ears23:47
superm1more or less this is the list it comes up with on manifest then: http://paste.ubuntu.com/62245/23:55
persiasuperm1, You may find http://www.loc.gov/standards/iso639-2/ISO-639-2_utf-8.txt interesting by comparison.  Perhaps many of those are empty?23:58
persia(or have only a small number of translated strings)23:59
