| bigzero | hey guys, I tried asking this in #ubuntu but no one knew the answer. Having trouble using time command under ubuntu. I'm trying to set the --format flag, but time keeps trying to execute the flags as bash commands. "time -v echo hi" fr instance gives me "-bash: -v: command not found" | 00:08 |
|---|---|---|
| Hobbsee | bigzero: are you sure you don't want date? | 00:09 |
| bigzero | i need to time execution of a program | 00:09 |
| Hobbsee | hrm, time -v should be supported. | 00:09 |
| bigzero | it only works with -p flag | 00:10 |
| bigzero | for me anyway | 00:10 |
| bigzero | i can't even check the version | 00:11 |
| bigzero | time -V tried to execute -V in bash | 00:11 |

| stooj | I'm trying to install jaunty (alpha 2 I think) and not getting very far. Can anyone tell me how to debug the installer to figure out what's going wrong (and submit a bug report)? | 04:43 |
| slangasek | stooj: for starters, I would recommend that you not use alpha2, which is superseded by alpha3 | 04:47 |
| slangasek | stooj: then, you should check http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/jaunty/alpha3 to see whether it's a known bug | 04:48 |
| slangasek | and if not, you probably want to ask #ubuntu-installer rather than here | 04:48 |

| === bryce_ is now known as bryce-sprint | ||
| liw | IntuitiveNipple, my guess would be x.y.z-0ubuntu3.8.04.2 | 09:07 |
| IntuitiveNipple | hmm... yeah, but .2 is gone so currently I'm guessing at .3 - the thing is, I need to create several debdiffs to address several different bugs in the same package, so its got a bit confusing | 09:08 |
| pochu | IntuitiveNipple: why don't you fix all bugs in the same debdiff? | 09:13 |
| liw | version numbers are per upload, and whoever uploads it, can apply several debdiffs before uploading one version | 09:15 |
| IntuitiveNipple | pochu: Because I'm posting debdiff patches to each bug report | 09:15 |
| IntuitiveNipple | liw: Ahhh... that would make sense then! I'll set them all to .3 for the Hardy package. Intrepid and Jaunty will be easier (I hope) | 09:16 |
| pochu | IntuitiveNipple: you can paste one with all fixes in one report, saying the debdiff also closes the other bugs. I think that will be easier for the sponsor and the SRU team | 09:18 |
| IntuitiveNipple | pochu: Yeah, but I'd rather keep them separate since some might not be considered for SRU | 09:19 |

| Chipzz | 15:30 < IntuitiveNipple> If an existing package has a bug that writes an incorrect value into the per-user sqlite database, is it permissible to add a postinst script in the fixed package to scan all homes and update each affected user database? >> It certainly is not | 16:31 |
| bryce_ | calc, slangasek: ok, fix looks good and applies, just checking that it builds before uploading. | 16:31 |
| slangasek | cheers | 16:31 |
| bryce_ | libx11 takes a while to build | 16:31 |
| IntuitiveNipple | Chipzz: So, how would the existing database be fixed? | 16:31 |
| Chipzz | not from the postinst | 16:32 |
| IntuitiveNipple | okay... so how? | 16:32 |
| Chipzz | packages are not allowed to touch other packages config files, or files in user home directories | 16:32 |
| Chipzz | no idea | 16:33 |
| Chipzz | but | 16:33 |
| Chipzz | let's say you have homedirs on a network drive | 16:33 |
| Chipzz | which get automounted when the user logs in | 16:33 |
| Chipzz | your approach breaks | 16:33 |
| Chipzz | worse | 16:33 |
| Chipzz | if the network drive is used by multiple machines | 16:33 |
| Chipzz | your update may run more than once | 16:33 |
| Chipzz | or you may have other boxes where you still have an old version where the breakage hasn't occured yet | 16:34 |
| bryce_ | calc, slangasek: uploaded. Please update and verify it solved the issue, when you get a chance. | 16:34 |
| IntuitiveNipple | the db *belongs* to the buggy package | 16:34 |
| Chipzz | which is why your approach is totally unacceptable ;) | 16:34 |
| calc | bryce: ok | 16:34 |
| Chipzz | you said per-user, so I'm assuming the db you mention is in the users' homedir | 16:35 |
| IntuitiveNipple | I wasn't *my* approach; I was asking if that was permissible, since otherwise something has to be done for each user log-in | 16:35 |
| Chipzz | well, it isn't ;) | 16:35 |
| pochu | IntuitiveNipple: you cannot touch files in the users' home directory | 16:35 |
| IntuitiveNipple | Chipzz: indeed, it's the trackerd ~/.local/share/tracker/db/common.db | 16:36 |
| pochu | IntuitiveNipple: the application could though | 16:36 |
| joaopinto | IntuitiveNipple, the usual approach for touching home dirs, is to have the launching script check the running users home dir, that is a regular behavior | 16:36 |
| Chipzz | best approach would be to patch the application to fix it when it starts? | 16:36 |
| IntuitiveNipple | pochu: So, how do we *fix* the user's broken db in the updated package? | 16:36 |
| IntuitiveNipple | hmmm | 16:36 |
| pochu | IntuitiveNipple: upstream could fix it in the code | 16:36 |
| pochu | but you are not allowed to do so in the package maintainer scripts | 16:37 |
| pochu | e.g. when trackerd is started it checks the database and if it's broken, it fixes it and continues | 16:37 |
| pochu | vinagre does that for example, to migrate a file to the new conf location | 16:37 |
| IntuitiveNipple | pochu: I posted the bug-fix upstream and it has been committed. However, their trunk code has been refactored and our tracker 0.6.6 codebase is very different in this respect. Fixing the source doesn't solve the existing-values-in-db issue | 16:38 |
| pochu | (not with a db though, but you see the point) | 16:38 |
| pochu | IntuitiveNipple: what I mean is that trackerd could load the db, check if it's buggy, and if it is fix that | 16:38 |
| pochu | otherwise force the creation of a new db. It's just a cache AFAIK... | 16:39 |
| IntuitiveNipple | pochu: yeah... this is going to be horrendous for SRUs! | 16:39 |
| IntuitiveNipple | pochu: No, not common.db, it contains Options :s | 16:39 |
| pochu | oh | 16:39 |
| IntuitiveNipple | pochu: there are now two problems with the tracker Options table. The first is, it is currently writing OptionValue as OptionKey and visa-versa... | 16:40 |
| pochu | what I mean is, whatever you're going to do in the package postinst, do it from inside trackerd | 16:41 |
| IntuitiveNipple | pochu: and I've also discovered that Options allows multiple entries for the same option since the table wasn't created with "OptionKey PRIMARY KEY" | 16:41 |
| IntuitiveNipple | Hmmm, can of worms anyone? :D | 16:42 |
| IntuitiveNipple | These bugs are incidental to the main one I'm chasing, which is 100% CPU usage by trackerd | 16:42 |
| pochu | the fix for that is to remove tracker ;) | 16:44 |
| IntuitiveNipple | lol don't tempt me! | 16:44 |
| IntuitiveNipple | I can fix the database with a simple script using sqlite3, *if* I can figure out a per-user way to start it :) | 16:45 |
| pochu | make trackerd a wrapper that calls your script and then tracker.real ;) | 16:46 |
| IntuitiveNipple | for an SRU? *eeek* | 16:46 |
| pochu | heh | 16:46 |
| IntuitiveNipple | I'm *hoping* I can fix all the bugs I'm finding and get them into one SRU for Hardy and Intrepid - luckily H/I/J all have the same codebase | 16:47 |
| cody-somerville | IntuitiveNipple, I'd rather have a one to one ratio | 16:57 |
| IntuitiveNipple | cody-somerville: one-to-one what? | 16:58 |
| cody-somerville | Bug to SRU ratio | 16:58 |
| IntuitiveNipple | cody-somerville: Oh... well, they are looking to be inter-related, so right now I've got three LP bugs that relate to one overall fix, but yeah, for things like the threads-not-stopping-on-SIGINT, that'd be separate | 17:00 |
| cody-somerville | IntuitiveNipple, And you're sure all these bugs are SRU worthy? Have they been fixed in Jaunty? | 17:00 |
| IntuitiveNipple | No, Jaunty is affected by the same ones, but obviously the patches for Juanty don't need SRU | 17:01 |
| IntuitiveNipple | cody-somerville: The bugs, combined, cause trackerd to eat 100% CPU in some circumstances, all mainly because it writes the wrong entries to its Options table | 17:02 |
| IntuitiveNipple | cody-somerville: So it's a case of fixing for new installs, and cleaning up the existing installed options | 17:03 |

| superm1 | pitti, can you nuke the intrepid-proposed upload of fglrx. It didn't fix the problem as expected so it doesn't need to be sitting there | 17:38 |
| superm1 | you can unsubscribe ubuntu-sru from bug 284408 too | 17:38 |

| xnox | There is a source package in the archive which has ~100 files with copyright/license headers (GPL2 and GPL2+), it has a toplevel license/copyright as well GPL2+, and there are ~200 files without any copyright nor license. Similar situation is with the new upstream release and their svn. Is it acceptable for such thing to enter (continue to stay) in the Debian and/or Ubuntu archives? | 17:51 |
| xnox | it's currently in Debian main, Ubuntu universe. | 17:51 |

| hyperair | xnox: well if it entered nevermind imo | 18:11 |
| hyperair | xnox: but it would be good to attempt to persuade upstream to handle it | 18:11 |
| IntuitiveNipple | Would the Feature-Freeze be the applicable deadline for updating a package to the latest upstream? | 18:11 |
| stgraber | asac: any objection to bug 305531 importance to be raised to high ? | 18:13 |

| stgraber | asac: it's really a very very annoying bug for all ltsp users as having to wait 3s to get a drop-down to appear tends to make the xul applications almost impossible to use | 18:13 |

| Turl | hello | 21:52 |
| Turl | why does jaunty have such an old upstart version? | 21:52 |
| ion_ | turl: There will more incentive to upgrade the package when Upstart reaches the point where all initrd scripts can be migrated to Upstart jobs. | 21:54 |
| ion_ | Uh. Brainfart. s/initrd/sysvinit/ | 21:54 |
| Turl | ion_: will this happen for jaunty or jaunty+n? | 21:54 |
| ion_ | Probably not for jaunty. | 21:55 |
| Turl | :( | 21:55 |
| TheMuso | Considering the upstart upstream author works on ubuntu, I think he wants to make the upgrade when everything in upstart is ready. | 21:55 |
| Turl | also, is it a know issue the fact that gdm->usable desktop takes a long time on a quite recent pc? | 21:57 |
| ion_ | Yes | 21:59 |
| TheMuso | Yes its known, and is being worked on for Jaunty. | 21:59 |
| Turl | ok then | 21:59 |
| Turl | another thing, when will the intel graphic cards 3d accel work well? it works a day, breaks the next one, ... | 22:00 |
| Turl | TheMuso: about the gdm->desktop, I'm refering to a quite big regression from intrepid, idk if you were refering to the same problem. | 22:01 |
| Hobbsee | wfm | 22:01 |
| * TheMuso can't answer that | 22:01 | |
| TheMuso | Turl: No I wasn;t. | 22:01 |
| Hobbsee | oh, jaunty. that seems to always be dodgy. | 22:01 |
| Turl | TheMuso: well, it might be related to the intel problem, I don't have another pc to test my theory though | 22:02 |
| TheMuso | right | 22:02 |
| slangasek | blueyed: ping; is bug #217504 still an issue for you in jaunty, or does hal now recognize your WWW key? | 22:58 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 217504 in linux "acpi_fakekey stopped working for certain keycodes" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/217504 | 22:58 |
| blueyed | slangasek: no, acpi_fakekey still does not work for 148 or 150 (2.6.27-8-generic however) | 23:02 |
| slangasek | blueyed: I don't mean "does acpi_fakekey work", I mean "does hal recognize your WWW key, making acpi_fakekey unnecessary" :) | 23:03 |
| slangasek | acpi_fakekey is going to go away; I'm just trying to figure out whether this bug is already fixed by other means | 23:03 |
| blueyed | slangasek: yes, it does.. :) | 23:03 |
| slangasek | hal does recognize the key? | 23:04 |
| blueyed | xev displays it being pressed. I don't know if it comes from hal?! is there a hal-monitor? | 23:04 |
| slangasek | well, it either comes from there being a correct default in-kernel keymap for the key, or one being provided by the hal-info package | 23:06 |
