evand | xivulon: I wouldn't worry about the virus. | 09:05 |
evand | It's a scanner that I've never heard of before. I'd be more concerned if it was Symantec. | 09:06 |
davmor2 | evand: I'd been more concerned if it was avg | 09:17 |
evand | :) | 09:18 |
xivulon | yep, I have installed that scanner (quite dodgy thing, half in polish) and when installed it did not find anything | 09:44 |
xivulon | by the way same results for 8.04.1 and nobody complained :) | 09:51 |
evand | wonderful | 09:55 |
davmor2 | Just thought if it's a new antivir. It might not have tools for opening 7z file only zip and rar so everything else might be highlighted as a possible threat | 10:28 |
davmor2 | cjwatson: you fix for edubuntu on netboot may of broken it :( | 10:51 |
davmor2 | just trying again | 10:51 |
cjwatson | davmor2: you mean the thing that shouldn't be being tested? | 10:56 |
cjwatson | davmor2: in any case, I didn't upload my fix | 10:57 |
cjwatson | so it can't have broken anything | 10:57 |
davmor2 | cjwatson: Ah that would explain it, it get's stuck at 2% any way | 10:57 |
cjwatson | it's just thinking, it'll get there eventually I predict | 10:58 |
davmor2 | How long would you say? | 10:58 |
cjwatson | dunno :) | 11:03 |
davmor2 | cjwatson: just done an install of kubuntu netboot along side it was on 2% for no more than 30seconds | 11:06 |
davmor2 | it sticks at 6% for ages and then shoots up to 22% I think so I expect that pause | 11:07 |
davmor2 | meh still stuck at 2% | 11:22 |
acoc | hey guys, I'm having trouble with a package's postinst script in livecd-rootfs, basically its trying to see if /etc/gdm/gdm.conf-custom has been changed | 17:52 |
acoc | the script calls for CUSTOMGDM=`cat $GDMCONF|grep "="|grep -v "#"` | 17:52 |
acoc | and if it hasn't been changed, it exits with a nonzero error | 17:52 |
acoc | can apt handle |? | 17:53 |
cr3 | pkgsel/include looks for debs or udebs? | 18:13 |
cjwatson | cr3: dedbs | 18:22 |
cjwatson | debs | 18:22 |
cjwatson | acoc: apt has very little to do with postinst execution. That's several processes down the chain | 18:22 |
cjwatson | acoc: I need to see the whole script in order to comment | 18:23 |
cr3 | cjwatson: aha! so in the ubuntustudio image, what might make use of the openssh-server udeb? | 18:23 |
acoc | cjwatson: http://pastebin.com/m3fc791f4 - line 19 fails if gdm.conf-custom is not changed, no rush and thanks | 18:26 |
cjwatson | cr3: it's on all images, due to network-console, a customised installation mode. see the installation guide | 18:27 |
cjwatson | cr3: openssh-server-udeb is not really set up for use by anything other than network-console | 18:27 |
cr3 | cjwatson: interesting, I'll have a gander at the guide | 18:27 |
cjwatson | acoc: I have no idea what that thinks it's trying to achieve | 18:28 |
cjwatson | acoc: it's horribly overcomplicated for the only thing I can possibly imagine it's trying to do | 18:28 |
cjwatson | acoc: is this your code? can you explain it? | 18:29 |
cr3 | cjwatson: it's hardware from Intel, so we're not "certifying" it in the strictest sense of the term but it's under "enablement". | 18:29 |
cr3 | cjwatson: oups, nevermind that | 18:29 |
acoc | cjwatson: basically, if gdm config has been changed, the oz-desktop metafile will not replace the config | 18:29 |
acoc | cjwatson: and no it's not my code, I'm just trying to figure out why it's failing | 18:29 |
cjwatson | acoc: sure, but why would grep "=" | grep -v "#" tell you that? | 18:30 |
cjwatson | it's probably failing because it's totally wrong | 18:30 |
cjwatson | I'd just get in touch with whoever maintains that package if I were you, and get them to figure it out | 18:30 |
acoc | cjwatson: it's just a config file, so he was trying to strip the comments and see if anything was set (ie =) | 18:31 |
acoc | an unmodified file would have nothing set | 18:31 |
cjwatson | reading some tutorials on shell quoting might be a good idea ... | 18:31 |
acoc | personally, I'm learning shell scripting as I go, but besides bad looking code, is there anything wrong with what he's doing | 18:32 |
cjwatson | acoc: honestly, I don't know what the problem is, but it's far more likely to be a problem in the package than in livecd-rootfs. The Swiss Army Knife of shell debugging is 'set -x' at the top of the script | 18:32 |
acoc | I tried sed to do the same thing and it fails too (sed to stip comments and then grep) | 18:34 |
cjwatson | fails how? | 18:34 |
acoc | same error exit 1 on postinst | 18:34 |
cjwatson | anyway, this really isn't a channel for teaching shell scripting, sorry | 18:35 |
cjwatson | exit 1 => could mean anything | 18:35 |
cjwatson | use set -x to get an execution trace | 18:35 |
acoc | agreed | 18:35 |
acoc | alright main reason I wanted to ask here was to see if while installing there were any commands that basically couldn't be used in a postinst | 18:36 |
cjwatson | acoc: yes, but none that that script is using | 18:40 |
cjwatson | acoc: the non-zero exit might have nothing to do with that line for all you know | 18:41 |
acoc | cjwatson: By running it line by line I'm sure it's that line that's causing it, but I don't want to waste your time on an non installer based issue | 18:44 |
acoc | cjwatson: thanks for answering my question though | 18:45 |
jarias | hi! | 19:14 |
cosf | hi! | 19:14 |
Basti_dash | hi | 19:14 |
jarias | sorry about my really bad english :P but we are from #EdulinuxChile a Chilean Edubuntu based distribution | 19:14 |
jarias | we are trying to reduce de ubuntu instalator steps | 19:14 |
jarias | and...we are using preseed | 19:15 |
jarias | the CD was created, but it's not bootable | 19:15 |
cosf | mmmm..... I don't know | 19:16 |
jarias | maybe this isn't the best tool to do this...but we don't know any other that works | 19:17 |
jarias | anyone?? | 19:17 |
cjwatson | jarias: don't be so impatient, please, IRC is asynchronous | 19:21 |
cjwatson | jarias: what did you use to regenerate the .iso image file? | 19:21 |
cosf | this command ----> mkisofs -pad -l -r -J -V "CD Preseed" -o /tmp/cdpreseed.iso /var/cdpreseed | 19:25 |
jarias | cjwatson this is the command, cosf is part of the EdulinuxChile staff | 19:27 |
cjwatson | you haven't given any of the options that would make it bootable | 19:27 |
cjwatson | the command I would use (given your other options) is: mkisofs -r -V 'CD Preseed' -o /tmp/cdpreseed.iso -cache-inodes -J -l -b isolinux/isolinux.bin -c isolinux/boot.cat -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 -boot-info-table /var/cdpreseed | 19:27 |
jarias | excelent! thanks cjwatson | 19:31 |
cjwatson | persia: did you ever think of allowing passwordless sudo when passwd/allow-password-empty is set? | 19:35 |

Basti_dash | what is the best option to modify the ubiquity steps??? | 21:10 |
superm1 | cjwatson, unfortunately the incomplete language support is still coming up with that daily image from yesterday. i've put a bug together about it to track (bug 290398), but i anticipate not enough time to fix in time for release now unless it's something silly about how i'm preseeding or what i'm preseeding | 21:12 |
ubottu | Launchpad bug 290398 in ubiquity "Incomplete language support even with all languages preseeded" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/290398 | 21:12 |
Basti_dash | thanks | 21:17 |
cjwatson | superm1: ok, thanks | 21:22 |
superm1 | cjwatson, also you were looking for a log regarding stuff that was getting removed consistently, i put that on bug 290400 | 21:23 |
ubottu | Launchpad bug 290400 in ubuntu-meta "DVD livefs always removes java packages" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/290400 | 21:23 |
cjwatson | superm1: ok, thanks, the reason is as predicted judging from that so we'll deal with it in jaunty | 21:26 |
superm1 | cjwatson, it didn't appear so glancing through install.py , but is there any preseed key I could put to prevent them from getting removed? | 21:27 |
superm1 | such as preseeding those packages as to stay installed? if not, i'm thinking I might populate some hackery into an early command to make /var/lib/ubiquity/apt-installed with them listed | 21:28 |
cjwatson | I don't think you can do this from an early_command; that's run from casper and ubiquity clears out /var/lib/ubiquity/apt-installed when it starts | 21:29 |
superm1 | that's too bad. | 21:30 |
cjwatson | superm1: horrible hack alert | 21:30 |
cjwatson | d-i pkgsel/language-pack-patterns string language-pack-gnome-$LL icedtea6-plugin <etc> | 21:31 |
superm1 | oh geez. | 21:31 |
cjwatson | it's not designed for that but would work :) | 21:31 |
superm1 | yeah | 21:31 |
superm1 | as long as it's temporary for intrepid, and works, it'll save some factory burn time. i'll give it a shot | 21:32 |
=== ubott2 is now known as ubottu | ||
superm1 | hum. this probably isn't a good sign. choosing s-chi in oem-config isn't setting the user's account into s-chi at all w/ oem-config 1.52 or 1.53. going into language support, no default language is getting set | 23:30 |
