| Rocket2DMn | Lupine, wishlisted the second one | 00:10 |
| Rocket2DMn | that first one seems more like a regression | 00:10 |
| Lupine | but it's not really a bug though, right? true it's annoying, and I do agree with the reporter...so how should I typically handle these? | 00:12 |
| Rocket2DMn | the reporter said it behaved as expected before | 00:12 |
| Rocket2DMn | then with an update it stopped | 00:12 |
| Rocket2DMn | so the user is complaining about a change in behavior, not a new feature | 00:13 |
| Lupine | agreed, and I read over the pidgin developer ticket: http://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/7172 | 00:15 |
| Lupine | so....maybe I should do this | 00:15 |
| Lupine | re-assign the bug to the specific window manager the user is using? | 00:15 |
| Lupine | in this case, metacity | 00:16 |
| Lupine | this is one of those more confusing bugs, but I would like to learn from this one, so I'll know next time | 00:16 |
| Rocket2DMn | its possible its a WM problem | 00:16 |
| Lupine | I think so, I will reassign and post an explanation to the user. thanks for the feedback | 00:18 |

| StevePearce | Hello all, I would like to ask a question about recording/changing a Jaunty bug. | 15:55 |
| StevePearce | First time bug reporting. So im doing my research before tinkering in Launchpad. | 15:55 |
| StevePearce | The issue I am having is with Jaunty's partitioning tool in Ubiquity (GTK). | 15:55 |
| StevePearce | I am trying to achieve the following: Create a new partition table, create a 20gb / (primary), 10gb /home (logical), 6gb swap (logical) and then allocate the rest to a /data (logical) partition. | 15:56 |
| StevePearce | Ubiquity fails at creating the swap partition and instead creates a /var or /usr. I am able to repeat the issue. | 15:56 |
| StevePearce | Hunting through launchpad (to see if developers were aware of the issue) I noticed this post https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/311799 with a "new" status. | 15:56 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu bug 311799 in ubiquity "[jaunty] ubiquity turns swap partition into /home" [Undecided,New] | 15:56 |
| StevePearce | My question is essentially this: what do I change? Do I confirm this report? Again, this is my first time reporting/altering a bug. | 15:56 |
| andresmujica | ok, | 16:01 |
| andresmujica | that's nice | 16:01 |
| andresmujica | i believe you should confirm this bug | 16:01 |
| StevePearce | ok, thanks | 16:01 |
| andresmujica | reporting you're case, and reporting what to do to repeat it. | 16:01 |
| StevePearce | ok | 16:01 |
| andresmujica | an we can change the description to extend it to other fs like /var or /usr | 16:02 |
| andresmujica | reporting your case (sorry) | 16:02 |

| andresmujica | StevePearce did you already comment to the bug? | 16:18 |
| StevePearce | i have literally just posted the changes. | 16:19 |
| andresmujica | ok | 16:20 |
| andresmujica | perfect! | 16:20 |
| andresmujica | let me check | 16:20 |
| StevePearce | thankyou for the help | 16:20 |
| StevePearce | I now feel more comfortable checking out bug reports | 16:20 |
| andresmujica | great!! | 16:21 |
| andresmujica | thanks to you for reporting the issue | 16:21 |
| andresmujica | Steve, check if you've got this file /var/log/installer/partman and attach it to the report | 16:24 |
| andresmujica | also add this /var/log/installer/syslog | 16:25 |
| andresmujica | and if you've got the time it would be great if you can add | 16:25 |
| andresmujica | the file /var/log/installer/debug created by running ubiquity --debug | 16:26 |
| StevePearce | ok | 16:26 |
| StevePearce | andresmujica, i haven't got a "syslog" or "partman" in the /var/log/installer directory | 16:39 |
| StevePearce | "debug" however is there, with a few thousand lines | 16:39 |
| StevePearce | should i pop it in a pastebin? or will it be fine to include in a comment? | 16:39 |
| andresmujica | i'm not really familiar with ubiquity but add the debug one, it may include useful information. | 16:40 |
| apw | would this be the right place to ask whether i am about to use launchpad correctly, specifically i we are working on a change which affects multiple packages, i am presuming (and want to confirm) it would be appropriate to use one bug with multiple tasks one per package affected? | 16:40 |
| andresmujica | add it as attachment | 16:40 |
| StevePearce | ok, thanks | 16:40 |
| student022 | Hi! I have installed Ubuntu8.04 on server B and run the gnome desktop on B, accessing it with nxclient from A. When I open a gnome-terminal from within the desktop on B, I get an error "There was an error creating the child process for this terminal". How to avoid this? | 16:41 |
| student022 | I found reports on /etc/fstab or udev errors that prevent the /dev/pts directory from having the right settings. But /dev/pts/0 exits, so its probably something else. | 16:41 |
| student022 | When logging in to B from A using ssh -X, I can open gnome-terminal without problems. It only happens under Gnome (or KDE with konsole, respectively.) | 16:41 |
| persia | StevePearce, syslog and partman are found in /var/log/ directly | 16:43 |
| afflux | apw: yes, it most probably is appropriate | 16:43 |
| apw | thanks | 16:43 |
| StevePearce | ok persia | 16:43 |
| StevePearce | thanks | 16:43 |
| persia | apw, How many tasks are you considering? Generally it becomes unwieldy for more than about 10, due to an outstanding bug with implicit subscriptions. | 16:43 |
| andresmujica | hmm, i'm gonna edit the wiki then, it says they're located at /var/log/installer | 16:44 |
| apw | persia, three | 16:44 |
| bdmurray | andresmujica: which wiki page is wrong? | 16:44 |
| persia | apw, Then almost certainly as tasks against a single bug, yes. | 16:44 |
| andresmujica | hmm.. i'm re-reading maybe i misunderstood ?? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingUbiquity/AttachingLogs | 16:45 |
| apw | persia, thanks thats great | 16:45 |
| andresmujica | it seems that while the installation is in progress the files are located at /var/log .. then they move to /var/log/installer.. right? | 16:46 |
| bdmurray | Yes, that's correct | 16:46 |
| persia | Not quite. Different logs go in different places. | 16:46 |
| persia | Oh, post-install? | 16:46 |
| bdmurray | https://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+filebug-advanced | 16:46 |
| bdmurray | andresmujica: so that wiki page could use some clarification it seems | 16:48 |
| persia | Oh nifty: I think I never got that far when having installer issues. | 16:48 |
| andresmujica | yeap, i'm working on it.. | 16:48 |
| andresmujica | ok. done | 16:56 |
| andresmujica | if a bug is solved by a package uploaded to Jaunty, which would be the right path ? a backport or a SRU?. The bug affects hw and just installing the Jaunty package would it be solved.. bug #262853 | 17:45 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 262853 in ov51x-jpeg "ov51x-jpeg-source won't build against kernel 2.6.27, but 1.5.9 (already in Jaunty) would." [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/262853 | 17:45 |
| james_w | andresmujica: SRU probably | 17:46 |
| andresmujica | ok, i'll fill it like SRU then. thks | 17:47 |
| === asac_ is now known as asac | ||
| james_w | andresmujica: yeah, the new upstream is a targeted patch. It would be up to the SRU team exactly how to proceed, but the work of updating the package would be easy | 17:49 |
| andresmujica | ok, i believe that too. | 17:50 |
| james_w | pedro_: you know a new network manager hit Jaunty today? Does that affect the bug day at all? | 19:59 |
| pedro_ | james_w: don't think it could affect the hug day but i can update the bug list let's say Wednesday to include some of those new bugs (in case they're) | 20:01 |
| pedro_ | or regenerate the list if needed | 20:01 |
| MrKanister | I think it's good to have a very latest version in Jaunty for tests | 20:01 |
| pedro_ | indeed, having the latest version is always good ;-) | 20:02 |
| MrKanister | having Jaunty on a test machine helps so much :) | 20:03 |
| petski | Hi, I'm looking for a way to trace all system calls: "strace" can only trace one (actually 32) process/command at the time. Any other way then just wrap a shell script for this functionality? (LTTng seems overkill) | 20:07 |
| maco | thekorn: what is error 104? the 5aday applet just said "could not add bug #.... error 104" | 20:20 |
| thekorn | maco, don't know, let me check the code | 20:23 |
| maco | thekorn: when i did it from the cli right after it said that the bug had been added though. i keep having that happen lately. kinda confusing :-/ | 20:23 |
| thekorn | hmm, #104: error while committing changes | 20:24 |
| maco | so why does the cli say it's already been added? | 20:24 |
| maco | i havent used 5aday much in the last few months...the last 3 or 4 times i tried, i got errors from the applet and the cli claimed that it had already been added | 20:25 |
| thekorn | maco, don't know, can you please file a bug and subscribe me, I will have a look at it tomorrow morning, can't look at it right now | 20:25 |
| thekorn | yeah, this looks wired | 20:26 |
| pedro_ | bbl | 20:26 |
| maco | er... i dont think i have enough info for a proper bug report | 20:27 |
| andresmujica | maco: from time to time i've got the same issue... normally is beacuse a commit get stucked | 20:28 |
| andresmujica | maco: gimme a sec i'll look the commands i use to solve it... | 20:28 |
| maco | well bzr says there's nothing uncommitted | 20:29 |
| andresmujica | take a look via web into the last commit to check if the latest bug added to 5-a-day is there... | 20:32 |
