| tkamppeter | johanbr, then your manual call and the call by cupsfilter uses different command line options and the call out of the print queue even others. | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| tkamppeter | Try to find out which command line options get actually used and which ones make pdftopdf break. If the original PDF produced by evince is good then we probably have a pdftopdf bug. | 00:01 |
| calc | LaserJock: yea | 00:01 |
| calc | LaserJock: but poorly, so i have to determine how to fix it or disable it entirely and use fuse | 00:01 |
| calc | LaserJock: fuse was buggy as well so it wasn't working until the next release 1.1.8 will work with OOo | 00:02 |
| calc | LaserJock: it didn't support truncate at all but now does for trivial cases (0 or same size as file) | 00:02 |
| LaserJock | calc: bummer | 00:03 |
| ebroder | Has, uh, anybody run into weird issues with Jaunty's libc running under Lenny's kernel? | 00:03 |
| tkamppeter | johanbr, is the file already the evince output or the original file? If it is the original, give me also the evince output. | 00:04 |
| TheMuso | 8/c | 00:06 |
| calc | LaserJock: well gvfs fuse will work in time for jaunty, but i was trying to fix the OOo native support which takes learning how they actually work, heh | 00:07 |
| calc | i have to make a decision by beta though to make sure it works for everyone | 00:08 |
| johanbr | tkamppeter: that's the original | 00:08 |
| johanbr | just a sec | 00:08 |
| tkamppeter | johanbr, seems that your LaTeX PDF file makes evince turning all fonts to graphics when converting PDF to PDF (probably with Poppler). | 00:25 |
| tkamppeter | Great would be if one could let evince pass the input PDF directly through to the output to minimize the number of conversions (and losses caused by them). | 00:26 |
| johanbr | Oh, I see. Well, that explains the enormous file size. | 00:26 |
| johanbr | tkamppeter: If you pass the original pdf file through pdftopdf, you should also get a large file (~100 megs). Is that also because it turns fonts into graphics? | 00:28 |
| tkamppeter | pdftopdf should do page management only, not re-render the file. Please try passing the original PDF to pdftopdf. The size of the output should be in the order of the size of the input. | 00:29 |
| johanbr | tkamppeter: nope | 00:31 |
| johanbr | cat original_filename.pdf |/usr/lib/cups/filter/pdftopdf job1234 username test 1 jobname.pdf >copy.pdf | 00:31 |
| johanbr | gives a copy.pdf that's 92 megs large | 00:32 |
| === rgreening_ is now known as rgreening | ||
| tkamppeter | johanbr, strange. pdftopdf bug probably. pdftopdf is Poppler-based, evince probably too and the two Poppler treatments perhaps produce 5 * (92/5)^2 MB. | 00:40 |
| johanbr | could the problem be fixed directly in poppler? | 00:43 |
| johanbr | or does the library not have enough information to know that it can just return the pdf file unmodified? | 00:43 |
| johanbr | and evince does indeed use poppler | 00:44 |

| ebroder | It's problematic if your Jaunty build chroots are running on a Lenny system | 01:12 |
| ScottK | "Hey, your libc doesn't work with some other distro's kernel" | 01:12 |
| andersk | Surely a statically compiled binary is supposed to work on other distro's kernels. | 01:14 |
| ArneGoetje | slangasek: the -base langpacks contain all translations which were exported from Rosetta at a given point in time. the other langpacks is a diff to what has changed since then. | 01:14 |
| andersk | It works in Intrepid. | 01:14 |
| ArneGoetje | slangasek: due to a bug the first -base langpacks didn't include any mozilla and kde translations. That's why I generated a new one. Mozilla diffs only work when the -base pack has mozilla xpis already, which was not the case. | 01:16 |
| ArneGoetje | slangasek: the duplicate xulrunner and firefox for bn_IN, es_ES, pt_PT and sv_SE are due to in import error into Rosetta and will hopefully be removed from the database soon. As soon as this happens I will generate new -base langpacks. Another -base generation will happen shortly before release. Please do expect them to grow in size! | 01:18 |

| TheMuso | Or, we extend the cycle to fix bugs. | 03:15 |
| ScottK | TheMuso: So far it's seemed to me that the general view for LTS is better grab the latest so it'll be supported longer. | 03:24 |
| ScottK | Perhaps next time around it'll be the opposite. | 03:24 |
| TheMuso | ScottK: Yeah but GNOME 3.0 will have some pretty significant changes | 03:25 |
| * ScottK doesn't really know about it. | 03:25 | |

| ScottK | calc: KDE got a new version so we want one too? | 03:30 |
| calc | ScottK: something like that probably ;-) | 03:30 |
| calc | ScottK: they get to drop deprecated api's at 3.0 as well iirc | 03:31 |

| calc | I'm going to try running a debug build with gio for OOo if it doesn't show anything obvious I'm going to drop gvfs/gio from OOo and go to gvfs fuse for jaunty :-\ | 03:32 |

| calc | LaserJock: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=NjU4Mg | 03:47 |
| calc | LaserJock: it seems that 2.30 will really be 3.0 unless they change their mind in july | 03:47 |
| ScottK | So it sounds like the decision is not so much about what they'll add, but what they'll drop? | 03:58 |
| TheMuso | Corba for one | 03:58 |

| LaserJock | I can't imagine doing all the Gtk/Gnome 3.0 breakage in 1 release | 04:05 |
| johanbr | Well, there are already branches of some things. I know of the gnome shell and gtk with multi-pointer support. Probably other stuff too. | 04:07 |
| TheMuso | and gnome-speech may be going away, actually it will go away if I have anything to do with it. | 04:08 |

| pitti | tkamppeter: I think you can close them; I fixed s-c-p for python2.6 in 1.1.3+git20090218-0ubuntu4 | 09:03 |
| asac | Hobbsee: hmm. depends. i know that there are still issues with some types WPA enterprise. Any particular wifi chipset you have issues with? | 09:04 |
| Hobbsee | asac: there was a broadcom mentioned earlier, and I was having temporary problems with my iwl3945 card | 09:05 |
| tkamppeter | pitti, the mentioned ones are on hal-cups-utils. Or is it because hal-cups-utils uses a lib of s-c-p? | 09:05 |
| pitti | aah | 09:05 |
| Hobbsee | asac: the broadcom got reported, I think i saw another couple in bugs, and I don't still have logs of my (now working) iwl3945 | 09:06 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: yes, python-cupshelpers is built by the s-c-p source (#336707) | 09:07 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: that should be good now | 09:07 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: the other two bugs fail on importing "usb" | 09:07 |

| tkamppeter | pitti, I see another problem. | 09:20 |
| tkamppeter | I have kept s-c-p all the time identical to upstream and now there was a major patch done due to the notifications. | 09:21 |
| mvo | pitti: thanks, this is already in bzr | 09:21 |
| tkamppeter | What was the problem to have buttons in the notifications? | 09:22 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: right, please prod the dx team to forward the patch upstream | 09:22 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: notify-osd doesn't support actions in notifications | 09:22 |
| pitti | so they'd end up as dialogs | 09:22 |
| mvo | pitti: any word about the freeze exception for the compiz with protobuf support ? or should I wait for slangasek ? | 09:22 |
| tkamppeter | pitti, is this a Ubuntu policy or a GNOME policy? | 09:23 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: it's not a policy; by design, notify-osd doesn't support actions | 09:23 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: and libnotify doesn't promise that the implementation does | 09:23 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: s-c-p just assumed that it can; with the patch, it checks whether the notification daemon actually supports actions, and if not, it does something different | 09:23 |
| tkamppeter | pitti, and why is notifying system replaced by an inferior one only for eye-candy? | 09:24 |
| pitti | mvo: I didn't answer yet; a 0.5 MB impact on the CD for relatively little gain, after FF, and with new potential bugs due to new implementation doesn't exactly make me happy.. | 09:24 |
| ion_ | I don’t understand why notification-daemon couldn’t have been patched with the eyecandy. | 09:24 |
| pitti | mvo: but "pitti feels bad about it" might not be sufficient to say "no" :) | 09:24 |
| pitti | ion_: (1) the patch would exchange the entire code, and (2) we want the original n-d to be available, too | 09:25 |
| mvo | pitti: well, startup improvement gain of 20-30% is not "relatively little" | 09:25 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: it's not just eye candy, but a new usability design | 09:25 |
| mvo | pitti: but I certainly understand this | 09:26 |
| pitti | mvo: I'm actually more concerned about changing the entire underlying configuration parsing structure that late | 09:26 |
| pitti | if we can spare the space on the CDs, I'm fine with it, but I'd really like to have slangasek decide that | 09:26 |
| mvo | pitti: sure, I wait for him. if we do it, we should do it today IMO | 09:27 |
| pitti | yes, indeed | 09:27 |
| tkamppeter | piiti, would "if os.environ.get('GDMSESSION') == "gnome-stracciatella":" also work on non-Ubuntu distros to check whether the notify daemon is capable of actions? | 09:27 |
| tkamppeter | pitti: ^^^ | 09:28 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: no, please don't ever use that outside of Ubuntu | 09:29 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: it's meant for something entirely different | 09:29 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: for checking action support, you need to call | 09:30 |
| pitti | GList *notify_get_server_caps(void); | 09:30 |
| pitti | (/usr/include/libnotify/notify.h) | 09:30 |
| tkamppeter | Is there a possibility for a Python program to check whether the notification daemon supports actions? | 09:30 |
| pitti | (this also exists in python-notify) | 09:30 |
| tkamppeter | pitti, then the patch should be changed to that. | 09:31 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: indeed it should | 09:31 |
| pitti | kenvandine_wk: ^ | 09:31 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: thanks for pointing out | 09:32 |
| tkamppeter | pitti, kenvandine_wk: With this fixed I would commit the patch upstream. | 09:33 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: if it checks server caps, it absolutely makes sense to commit it to upstream, since this is a real bug (assuming that actions are supported without testing for them) | 09:34 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: the stracciatella test is an ubuntu specific hack and should remain Ubuntu patches | 09:34 |

| directhex | i think MSI are the ones beginning to put EFI on their motherboards | 10:21 |
| directhex | most don't | 10:21 |
| cjwatson | for Macs it's easy; we do the equivalent of dmidecode and see if it says Apple ... | 10:22 |
| cjwatson | but I'm not about to go hardcoding that for every BIOS manufacturer on the planet | 10:22 |
| directhex | i thought it might help to know who was at it :/ | 10:23 |
| directhex | aren't MSI canonical partners? i thought their netbook was ubuntu based | 10:23 |
| directhex | you could try & get ahold of one of their boards to take a peek | 10:23 |
| directhex | elilo sucks, though. that's unfortunate | 10:25 |
| cjwatson | mm, I'm not exactly overflowing with space for more hardware | 10:26 |
| cjwatson | realistically I suspect EFI systems are an excuse to try out grub2 | 10:27 |
| ion_ | Incidentally, i installed grub2 recently. Seems to work fine. :-) | 10:27 |
| ion_ | (jaunty) | 10:27 |
| cjwatson | we should have a wiki page with success/failure plus actual hardware details | 10:27 |
| ogra | cjwatson, just expense a new house :P | 10:28 |

| asac | TheMuso: i think their fix does just opt-out from at-spi | 11:05 |

| TheMuso | right, I don't know enough about that to coment whether we should be using at-=spi or not | 11:05 |
| asac | TheMuso: yeah. lets both read the mozilla bug and discuss later today or tomorrow what to do ;) | 11:06 |

| TheMuso | asac: No crashes, but thigns not being accessible... | 11:13 |
| asac | TheMuso: i would think that this patch is really just for crahes at shutdown | 11:14 |
| * ogra wonders why that is, at least the error should be different | 11:15 | |
| TheMuso | asac: that new patch of yours is already applied... | 11:15 |
| TheMuso | asac: ah ok. Anyway it seems the first 2 hunks are already present, but hunk 3 fails to apply, so I'll look over the bug more closely later and we can chat about it when I'm more awake. :) | 11:16 |
| asac | TheMuso: first two hunks? are you talking about the original patch we had? | 11:17 |
| TheMuso | asac: no, the one you pastebinned. | 11:18 |

| Keybuk | I noticed an interesting side effect of the "YOU HAVE UPDATES!" behaviour today | 12:53 |
| Keybuk | if you run apt-get update, and it's been a while, that triggers the window of death | 12:54 |
| Keybuk | which makes you more inclined to use it than running apt-get again ;) | 12:54 |
| directhex | the window of death can kiss my wookie | 12:54 |
| directhex | just because OSX does it, doesn't make it right | 12:54 |
| Keybuk | directhex: just use sreadahead instead of readahead-list | 12:56 |
| Keybuk | then it freaks out that you've manually broken ubuntu-desktop's deps and won't do anything <g> | 12:56 |
| wgrant | Is publisher broken? | 13:00 |
| wgrant | There are binaries 3.5 hours in ACCEPTED. | 13:00 |

| KaiL | already any plans how to get 3D accelleration for ATI GPUs in 9.04? I guess, "radeonhd" isn't really usable? | 13:06 |

| wgrant | cjwatson: Eww. | 13:13 |

| === Amaranth_ is now known as Amaranth | ||
| directhex | KaiL, if they feel like it | 13:14 |
| tjaalton | they are going to drop support for anything older than r6xx | 13:15 |
| directhex | KaiL, superm1 is keeping on top of what's working and what isn't | 13:15 |
| cjwatson | it's trying to republish kde4libs 4.1.4-0ubuntu1~intrepid1.1 | 13:15 |
| tjaalton | at least according to phoronix | 13:15 |
| KaiL | tjaalton, yes, and definitly not adding X-Server 1.6 this month | 13:15 |
| KaiL | (was just a news on heise.de) | 13:16 |
| directhex | sodding ATI | 13:16 |
| KaiL | so for R300-R500 the default can be changed to "radeon" today... | 13:17 |
| KaiL | which gives at least 2D acc and a rather slow 3D | 13:17 |
| Amaranth | KaiL: It's not that slow | 13:18 |
| KaiL | situation on GPUs is getting much worse these days; intels GMA 500 is another problem: last driver ran on 7.10 | 13:18 |
| directhex | "older than r600" seems highly excessive - 2k-series radeons? | 13:18 |
| directhex | KaiL, yes, poulsbo is junk. blame powervr. | 13:19 |
| KaiL | 2k Serie will still be supported | 13:19 |
| directhex | yeah, but not 1k? | 13:19 |
| KaiL | no 1k, no Xxxx, no 9xxx | 13:19 |
| KaiL | or in very short: support droped for all non-DX10-chips | 13:20 |
| KaiL | Amaranth, afaik even fglrx is far behind Windows performance, so how much worse is the free one? | 13:22 |
| KaiL | power consumption will be another problem; esp. on Laptops | 13:22 |
| Amaranth | KaiL: fglrx should be close to the windows version, radeon should be about 70% of that, power usage is a little higher than fglrx but not much and will get better | 13:23 |
| Amaranth | I never did any benchmarks on my X1400 or whatever though, so that's all from phoronix :P | 13:23 |
| directhex | i'm planning on doing some benchmarking actually | 13:24 |
| directhex | i have a gtx260 and a radeon 4870 to test with | 13:24 |
| KaiL | I remember my old 9250, where page flip helped a lot ;) | 13:24 |
| directhex | i have a PPA with latest radeon/nvidia in it, for intrepid, which will help | 13:24 |
| === cr3_ is now known as cr3 | ||
| KaiL | I guess, the radeon-driver from intrepid might differ quite a lot from the ones in jaunty ;) | 13:25 |
| KaiL | .o0(I hope, in the right direction ;) | 13:25 |
| directhex | well, fglrx anyway | 13:25 |
| directhex | i wish there were more engines to test with though. where's freaking UT3? o_o | 13:26 |
| KaiL | the "Unigine" test might be interesting ;) | 13:26 |
| KaiL | "Tropic" should land arround 13,5 with fglrx, so that's quite demanding | 13:27 |
| directhex | yes, ungine is one i've got | 13:30 |
| directhex | and there's etqw as the latest id tech engine one | 13:30 |
| directhex | but what else? | 13:30 |
| KaiL | Nexuiz? | 13:30 |
| KaiL | based on Q1, but much extended | 13:31 |
| ArneGoetje | slangasek: 1. a full export from Rosetta for the -base langpacks puts significant stress onto the Launchpad database. The last export took almost 3 days to complete. The resulting tarball is about 500MB in size. The converting into language packs on rookery takes about 3.5 hours then, plus the buildds take another 2 days or so to build all the -base packs. | 13:32 |
| ArneGoetje | slangasek: 2. the users will have to download the full set of translations every time, instead of just a few kB of diffs. | 13:32 |
| directhex | nah, no offense to the developers, but a nexuiz benchmark is worhtless. doesn't do anything in a remotely modern way, wouldn't stress a modern gpu in a sensible manner | 13:33 |
| KaiL | Prey is another id tech afaik, but maybe newer than etqw | 13:34 |
| KaiL | directhex, maybe UT2004? Better than no UT engine at all | 13:38 |
| directhex | hm, unigine is really spot on for this. | 13:38 |

| slangasek | seb128: (huge ~= 500KB) | 14:04 |
| seb128 | ah ok | 14:04 |
| slangasek | seb128: is that something you could make room for? | 14:04 |
| calc | cjwatson: the post i read on tytso's blog indicated if grub was in the MBR that GPT would work regardless of if you have EFI or not, but only for linux, Vista can read GPT but only boot from it if you have EFI which was why it wouldn't work for dual boot situations | 14:04 |
| seb128 | slangasek: we could make room, ie split gnome-games documentation for example, but how much speed win is that? ie is that worth the effort? | 14:05 |
| seb128 | I would not want to drop translations for 0.5 second win | 14:05 |
| KaiL | calc, wasn't it, that Vista 64 requires GPT? | 14:05 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: I think kenvandine_wk can negotiate that with david | 14:06 |
| Keybuk | seb128: multiple seconds | 14:06 |

| seb128 | Keybuk: are you sure? the code mvo made me tried the other day was winning 0.5 seconds I think | 14:06 |
| Keybuk | seems to cut an average of 3-5s across the different bits of hardware I have | 14:06 |
| calc | KaiL: no from what i read vista can only boot from GPT if your system uses EFI which other than Macs is very rare | 14:06 |
| Keybuk | seb128: what hardware did you try it on? | 14:06 |
| mvo | seb128: well, 0,5s from a 1s startup :) | 14:06 |
| slangasek | pitti: well, do we have a current list of packages that benefit from lzma? | 14:06 |
| seb128 | Keybuk: that was hot cache login though so not really revelant | 14:07 |

| * calc thinks we should just flip a switch on the buildds to default to using lzma :) | 14:08 | |
| slangasek | pitti: and lzma doesn't help us for desktop CDs, of course, which is where we've been having trouble keeping langpacks on | 14:08 |
| tkamppeter | pitti, I have also passed through an Apport crash report on Jockey now, triggered by Plug'n'Print. | 14:08 |
| pitti | slangasek: oh, good point | 14:08 |
| seb128 | Keybuk: what sort of changes? | 14:08 |

| seb128 | Keybuk: please give me the bug numbers when you do so I can track that and do some nagging ;-) | 14:08 |
| calc | pitti: iirc one of the gl libs was a big saving if it hasn't been converted yet | 14:08 |
| Keybuk | seb128: removing gnome-panel's slide-in of the panel on initial startup | 14:08 |
| Keybuk | because we are not 5 years old, and those two patches add 7s to the boot! | 14:08 |
| calc | pitti: but it has been 2 years since i looked at it so things will have changed since my test | 14:08 |

| Keybuk | turns out that sending 100s of slightly different massive textures at compiz while it's starting is not a plan made entirely of win | 14:11 |
| Keybuk | nautilus feature, I should say | 14:11 |
| slangasek | tkamppeter: mmm, you didn't write to the bug that you'd tested, your last mail said "please test" :) | 14:11 |
| tkamppeter | I hoped to get Linus also to test, but he is probably not listening any more. | 14:11 |
| slangasek | tkamppeter: if it's tested, then that's fine for an FFe, yes | 14:12 |
| jcastro | Keybuk: sucks that that adds so much time, I was quite liking the way the panels looked when I logged in | 14:12 |
| Keybuk | jcastro: fwict, you're lucky to see any kind of animation at all | 14:12 |
| Keybuk | this kind of thing is far better done with KMS anyway | 14:13 |
| Keybuk | then you can have all sorts of snazzy "fade/skew/slide/bounce in the desktop when it's ready" effects | 14:13 |
| Keybuk | (ie. don't repaint from gdm to desktop) | 14:13 |
| siretart | kirkland: does that mean you're looking for a sponsor to upload it to unstable? - or for DD to take over maintenance in debian? | 14:14 |
| kirkland | siretart: both, i think | 14:14 |
| jcastro | Keybuk: ah so it's entirely feasable for this to come back at some point in the future? | 14:14 |
| kirkland | siretart: the package compiles and runs fine on debian | 14:14 |
| kirkland | siretart: a couple of lines of packaging would be needed to make the debian build do the debian profiles, and the ubuntu build do the ubuntu profiles | 14:15 |
| kirkland | siretart: but that's trivial, i'll do that | 14:15 |
| mvo | slangasek: if I get your ok, I would like to upload the compiz changes today so that it lands in time for alpha6 - its now officially released so it will not be 0.7.9+git but nice version numbers instead :) | 14:15 |
| kirkland | siretart: i don't really have time or interest though in maintaining the package in debian too | 14:15 |
| siretart | kirkland: well, how about keeping you as maintainer and me in uploaders for the package? do you perhaps even have an debian packaging branch ready? | 14:15 |
| kirkland | siretart: i don't ... let me add that bit of logic as to inserting the @ or the \o/ logo in the profile | 14:16 |
| kirkland | siretart: after that, the build should just 'work' in debian | 14:16 |
| kirkland | siretart: the build would just need to version it properly in dch for debian | 14:16 |
| kirkland | siretart: are you DD? | 14:17 |
| siretart | kirkland: ok, in that case, I'll file an ITP now and wait for you to tell me what bzr branch we will use for the debian package, OK? | 14:17 |
| siretart | kirkland: yes, I'm a DD | 14:17 |
| kirkland | siretart: excellent, that sounds perfect ;-) | 14:17 |
| seb128 | siretart: hello, did you read my comment before? | 14:18 |
| siretart | seb128: I think I've skipped it, could you repeat, please? | 14:18 |
| seb128 | slangasek: oh, the freetype update also fixes the crasher | 14:18 |
| slangasek | seb128, mvo, pitti: if nothing else changes in size, we *currently* have room for protobuf without dropping any langpacks; do you think it's reasonable to reclaim that space somewhere after alpha6? | 14:18 |
| seb128 | siretart: I was asking if you know if anybody look at the ffmpeg-debian bugs in launchpad, the jaunty version seems to be crashland | 14:19 |
| slangasek | seb128: ah great, I'll make sure I get that packaged up today. Do you have a bug number for the rendering issue? | 14:19 |
| seb128 | slangasek: can we have an estimation of what language packs we have, which ones we could add by making some space and how much we need by language? | 14:19 |
| seb128 | slangasek: bug #330438 | 14:20 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 330438 in freetype "incorrect fonts displayed in Hydro-Quebec invoices" [Low,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/330438 | 14:20 |
| siretart | seb128: I've noticed that a huge bunch of crashed were reassigned to ffmpeg, but I really suspect that most of them are actually caused by gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg | 14:20 |
| seb128 | slangasek: bug #277294 is the crasher | 14:20 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 277294 in freetype "evince crashed with SIGFPE, trying to seek in KXTGA930.PDF" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/277294 | 14:20 |
| siretart | seb128: every one I've seen so far miss an example file to demonstrate the crash | 14:20 |
| slangasek | seb128: on liveCD, we're currently down to en es xh on amd64 and en es xh pt de fr on i386 | 14:20 |
| Keybuk | bryce_: around? | 14:20 |
| slangasek | seb128: pitti has a langpacksize script that says how much space each of those needs; I don't remember the original source for the script | 14:20 |
| pitti | slangasek: cd /usr/share/gconf/schemas; cat ekiga.schemas epiphany.schemas gnome-search-tool.schemas desktop_gnome_url_handlers.schemas | gzip -9 | wc -c | 14:20 |
| pitti | 608904 | 14:20 |
| siretart | seb128: and since I have no idea about the gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg codebase (but a bit of ffmpeg), I fear there is not much I can do about them other than trying to reproduce them with ffplay | 14:21 |
| slangasek | seb128: but it's roughly 9MB for pt, 5MB for de, 6MB for fr | 14:21 |
| seb128 | siretart: why do you think that's due to gst-ffmpeg? | 14:21 |
| pitti | slangasek: in other words, by rebuilding four packages, we should be able to claim back 600 KB | 14:21 |
| seb128 | siretart: there is several bugs with example and valgrind logs which show libavcodec issues | 14:21 |
| siretart | seb128: because I know that gst-ffmpeg uses quite a bunch of ffmpeg internals that are not supposed to be used externally | 14:22 |
| pitti | seb128: langpacksize: http://people.ubuntu.com/~pitti/scripts/langpacksize | 14:22 |
| slangasek | pitti: if you think that's reasonable, then I'm ok to have mvo upload the protobuf change | 14:22 |
| pitti | seb128: orignal is in bzr get lp:langpack-o-matic | 14:22 |
| seb128 | slangasek, pitti: thanks | 14:22 |
| siretart | seb128: and slomo regularily tells me about problems when I update ffmpeg | 14:22 |
| pitti | slangasek: yes, I want to rebuild those packages with large gconf translation trees anyway, to downsize them | 14:22 |
| seb128 | siretart: seems we need better coordination there then | 14:22 |
| slangasek | mvo: ok, please go ahead with protobuf for alpha6 | 14:22 |
| pitti | slangasek: ekiga alone will give us 270 KB | 14:22 |
| pitti | slangasek: I'll upload a rebuild | 14:22 |
| mvo | thanks slangasek and pitti \o/ | 14:23 |
| siretart | seb128: of course valgrind reports problems in avcodec. But since avcodec is a *decoding* library, it's really a garbage in - garbage out problem | 14:23 |
| siretart | valgrind cannot possibly know if gst-ffmpeg is passing garbage to avcodec | 14:23 |
| slangasek | seb128: if we want to be able to get de or fr onto amd64 desktop, though, we still need to find more savings :( | 14:23 |
| seb128 | siretart: ok, so you are not happy with stacktrace + valgrind + example, what else do you need? | 14:23 |
| slangasek | (just a little bit - less than 1MB) | 14:23 |
| siretart | and that's why I have to insist to have example files attached | 14:23 |
| seb128 | slangasek: I will have a look to how much gnome-games split would give us | 14:23 |
| slangasek | (unless we want both, then we need 8MB :) | 14:23 |
| siretart | seb128: I need the bug to be reproducible with ffplay | 14:23 |
| pitti | slangasek: ah, on the desktop CDs, the savings of those rebuilds will be bigger, since it also affects /var/lib/gconf/defaults/ | 14:24 |
| slangasek | pitti: great :) | 14:24 |
| siretart | then I can forward it upstream, but not earlier, unfurtunately | 14:24 |
| seb128 | siretart: bug #339854 has a video available for download | 14:24 |

| seb128 | siretart: it's a bit big for my download speed but if you can give it a try | 14:24 |
| siretart | seb128: yeah, such huge example files are really a PITA. in most case the first few MB are sufficient to expose the bug | 14:25 |
| siretart | another reason why I have to insist to have the example files *ATTACHED* to the launchpad report, not only linked | 14:25 |
| seb128 | siretart: can you ask for that on this bug? using dd should do the trick? | 14:26 |

| seb128 | siretart: ok, so basically totem and rhythmbox are crash land in ffmpeg code and that's nobody's problem, great | 14:29 |
| ogra | slangasek, you are ubuntu-mir as well, right ? | 14:29 |
| slangasek | ArneGoetje: thanks for clarifying wrt the -base problem. That makes sense, even though it makes it harder to estimate for alphas | 14:29 |
| slangasek | ogra: nope | 14:29 |
| siretart | seb128: and that's a pretty common experience I have with these forwarded bugs. in the last weeks, I focused on getting ffmpeg updated to 0.5 and started to work on mplayer rc3 | 14:29 |
| ogra | meh | 14:30 |
| siretart | seb128: no, that's not what I've said | 14:30 |
| calc | seb128: do you know when we will have 2.26.0, after alpha 6 correct? | 14:30 |
| siretart | seb128: I've said the problem is most likely in gst-ffmpeg having broken demultiplexers and feeding garbage to libavcodec | 14:30 |

| seb128 | siretart: sorry I'm slightly frustrated, I should calm down before continuing this discussion | 14:30 |
| siretart | seb128: I see | 14:31 |
| ogra | oh, lool is -mir, i didnt know | 14:31 |

| * ogra grins widely in lool's direction ... | 14:31 | |
| seb128 | calc: yes | 14:31 |
| siretart | seb128: what would be really helpful would be someone knowledgable of gst-ffmpeg internals | 14:31 |
| jcastro | seb128: can you look at python-webkitgtk sometime? I think it's in NEW | 14:32 |
| seb128 | jcastro: why is it in NEW? | 14:32 |
| jcastro | binary NEW? | 14:32 |
| calc | seb128: ok thanks :) | 14:32 |
| siretart | seb128: I could turn it the other way round: remove gst-ffmpeg from those systems, and the crashed would dissappear as well: most of the presented videos won't work in totem at all and all folks would be using vlc instead (the package I've been working on before mplayer and ffmpeg) | 14:33 |
| jcastro | seb128: I think it was renamed? https://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/jaunty/+source/pywebkitgtk/1.0.2-1ubuntu1 | 14:34 |
| seb128 | jcastro: sorry I've a zillion of things going on right now, any urgency there? | 14:35 |
| seb128 | siretart: that would not be the other way round, that's still "let's screw users who run ubuntu softwares" | 14:35 |
| siretart | seb128: and as for 'frustration', I'm slightly frustrated as well about the load of unreproducable crashers that are beeing reassinged to ffmpeg as well | 14:35 |
| jcastro | seb128: we're blocking a gwibber upload but it's not critical, is there someone else I can ping? | 14:35 |

| jcastro | seb128: ah ok, I didn't know there was a rotation, thanks | 14:36 |
| dendrobates | cjwatson: open-iscsi-udeb depends on scsi-modules-2.6.28-2-386-di which pulls in the old kernel. Can you fix? | 14:36 |
| siretart | seb128: uh, I think an incapable player that can be replaced with a capable one is slightly less frustrating than having to replace a crashing one with a capable one. but YMMV, of course | 14:37 |
| slangasek | pitti: what will that cost us (in MB or in bloodpressure)? :) | 14:37 |
| pitti | slangasek: don't worry, just about 10 MB | 14:37 |

| geser | jcastro: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ArchiveAdministration#Archive%20days | 14:37 |
| seb128 | siretart: it would help if somebody would go through those bugs and write wiki instruction on how to triage specific cases | 14:37 |
| slangasek | dendrobates: I thought that open-iscsi-udeb dep was going to go away? | 14:38 |
| pitti | slangasek: oooh, F*** | 14:38 |
| seb128 | siretart: or are least triage some bugs as an example and give a pointer on the bugsquad list | 14:38 |
| pitti | slangasek: I shouldn't have said that; I expected some 300 KB | 14:38 |
| jcastro | geser: sweet, thanks for that | 14:38 |
| slangasek | (didn't I have a discussion with kirkland about this @ the sprint?) | 14:38 |
| seb128 | siretart: right know bug triagers have no clue about what to do with those bugs and ffmpeg maintainers ignore most of those because they don't have the requested informations | 14:38 |
| pitti | slangasek: but Ken attached a 5.3 MB tarball | 14:38 |
| slangasek | haha | 14:38 |
| pitti | slangasek: oh, but hang on, not everything is needed by default | 14:38 |
| pitti | slangasek: okay, should be about 800 KB | 14:39 |
| * slangasek nods | 14:39 | |
| pitti | slangasek: I'll work on adding the themes to gnome-themes-extra today, but I won't do the seed change for a6 | 14:39 |
| siretart | seb128: oh, I remember having tried that before, with very little success :( | 14:39 |
| slangasek | pitti: ack, thanks | 14:39 |
| pitti | slangasek: after I did the packaging, I have a precise idea about the size | 14:39 |
| kirkland | slangasek: i remember discussing it; don't remember the conclusion; do remember that we couldn't make any change at the moment due to the freeze :-) | 14:40 |
| seb128 | siretart: trying what? triaging some? if you do email bugsquad to let them know what to use as example | 14:40 |
| seb128 | siretart: or to point to the wiki guidelines | 14:40 |
| seb128 | siretart: I don't think i've read any emails about this before | 14:40 |
| siretart | seb128: however that involved rather xine + ffmpeg. perhaps (if I find the triaging instructions of ffmpeg in the wiki) I can try to improve them again | 14:40 |
| seb128 | siretart: I for one would be happy to use stock replies when reassigning | 14:40 |
| slangasek | kirkland: hrm, I don't remember that, I would've happily given the go-ahead for the open-isci change - but maybe we were waiting for a kernel change first | 14:40 |
| siretart | seb128: where would you expect the stock reply for an incomplete ffmpeg bug to be found? | 14:41 |
| seb128 | siretart: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Responses | 14:41 |
| seb128 | siretart: it has a "xine-lib and ffmpeg bugs" section already | 14:42 |
| seb128 | siretart: should that be used for gstreamer crashers as well | 14:42 |
| siretart | aah, these are the notes I've been looking for as well | 14:42 |
| siretart | seb128: I'd suggest the xine part to be removed, and ahve it applied to *ALL* bugs being reassigned to ffmpeg | 14:43 |
| seb128 | ok | 14:43 |
| seb128 | pedro_: ^ can you get that done? | 14:43 |
| seb128 | pedro_: not sure if bugsquad discuss changes for this page or directly edit | 14:44 |
| slangasek | kirkland, dendrobates: oh, but it's amd64 that's the oversized image, so scsi-modules-2.6.28-2-*386*-di isn't relevant there? | 14:44 |
| slangasek | (not that we shouldn't trim it anyway...) | 14:44 |
| tkamppeter | slangasek, HPLIP 3.9.2 uploaded. | 14:45 |
| pedro_ | seb128: yes no problem, no need to discuss such changes if the person who take care of those bugs is requesting that, i'll do it | 14:45 |
| slangasek | tkamppeter: cheers | 14:45 |
| seb128 | pedro_: thanks | 14:45 |
| kirkland | slangasek: so that dep just needs to be dropped from open-iscsi-udeb? reasoning that the kernel provides it? | 14:45 |
| slangasek | kirkland: maybe. actually, that may not really be the fix we want; scsi-modules should be in the initramfs, so germinate should be smart enough that we don't need to change open-iscsi further, hmm | 14:47 |
| slangasek | kirkland: so let me poke at that end | 14:47 |
| slangasek | anyway, amd64 is still oversized | 14:47 |
| dendrobates | slangasek: perhaps not, the mysteries of di are many, and it is a bug. | 14:47 |
| siretart | pedro_: if you don't mind, I will extend that part a bit later today, ok? | 14:48 |
| pedro_ | siretart: no problem at all, feel free to do it | 14:48 |
| seb128 | siretart: thanks, and sorry for the rant, but half of the crashers we get on multimedia apps right now are in libavcodec | 14:49 |
| slangasek | dendrobates: something pulls libc6-i386 into the server CD? | 14:49 |
| slangasek | yuck, why is samba-tools being pulled in? | 14:50 |
| siretart | seb128: sure, no problem. but as said, I think that more than 2/3 of those bugs don't actually belong there. | 14:50 |
| dendrobates | slangasek: samba-dbg is also there. | 14:50 |
| siretart | but rather gst-ffmpeg | 14:50 |
| slangasek | dendrobates: samba-tools is much less useful than samba-dbg :-) | 14:50 |
| seb128 | siretart: perhaps we should really go back at making gst-ffmpeg use its ffmpeg copy and not the system one if that doesn't work | 14:50 |
| slangasek | apparently we're including "everything built from samba source" in server-ship, blargh | 14:51 |
| siretart | seb128: I was about to propose that as well. but we buy that with security maintenance nightmare. the "proper" solution would be to fix gst-ffmpeg, I'd think | 14:52 |
| slangasek | dendrobates, zul: I propose dropping swat, samba-tools, and samba-dbg from server-ship, does that sound reasonable? | 14:52 |
| seb128 | siretart: nobody has a clue about gst-ffmpeg apparently so that's not really going to work | 14:52 |
| dendrobates | slangasek: yes, I have some other changes as well. I'll get back to you in a bit. | 14:52 |
| siretart | seb128: I leave that discussion better to the gnome and security team, and prefer to focus on ffmpeg | 14:53 |
| seb128 | siretart: ok thanks | 14:53 |
| slangasek | dendrobates: libsmbclient-dev, too | 14:53 |
| slangasek | dendrobates: so that saves you at least 43MB on the amd64 CD, we're probably good now :) | 14:55 |
| slangasek | btw, I see php5 is also seeded by source, and there's a php5-dbg in the archive now too | 14:56 |
| lool | ogra: So it's needed in main? | 14:56 |
| ogra | lool, right | 14:56 |
| slangasek | php5-dbg is a measly 8MB though | 14:56 |
| ogra | lool, to finish the slug install | 14:56 |
| lool | ogra: Why so? -- just curious | 14:56 |
| ogra | lool, d-i needs udebs it uses in main | 14:57 |
| ogra | lool, to enable d-i to have flash-kernel in the slug firmware flash-kernel (and its udeb) indeed needs to move | 14:57 |
| ogra | else the udeb wont be in the d-i firmware image and d-i automatically switches to a bootloader-less install | 14:58 |
| tkamppeter | Anyone is maintaining a package which is translated into 40 or more languages by upstream? Do you always get one spam mail per language from Rosetta when you upload it? | 14:58 |
| tkamppeter | This happened to me now with system-config-printer. | 14:59 |
| ScottK | tkamppeter: The last guy that uploaded KDE l10n got over 14,000 before he got #launchpad to kill it. | 14:59 |
| ogra | which leaves you with a fine installed userspcae on your USB disk but no kernel in the flash ... so it reboots into the d-i firmware again after install ... starting over | 14:59 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: yes, known bug | 14:59 |
| KaiL | slangasek, is dropping swat such a good idea? | 14:59 |
| slangasek | oh suck, lsb-core implies lib32z1 on amd64? | 15:00 |
| slangasek | KaiL: yes, it's a *very* good idea | 15:00 |
| slangasek | swat is terrible | 15:00 |
| slangasek | but I'll defer to the server team if they think they want it | 15:00 |

| cjwatson | kirkland: please leave open-iscsi-udeb alone for now rather than perturbing the problem :- | 15:03 |
| cjwatson | ) | 15:03 |
| kirkland | cjwatson: sure, no problem | 15:03 |
| smb_tp | pitti, Might be. Was not installed. Just installed it and will see. Thanks | 15:04 |
| slangasek | seb128: mmm, I think freetype 2.3.8 might've been the one with ABI breakage after all | 15:06 |
| slangasek | 2.3.9 is due out soon, though | 15:06 |
| seb128 | slangasek: hum, ok | 15:06 |
| seb128 | slangasek: any change you backport fixes for the issues I poined if those are not part of the ABI changes? ;-) | 15:06 |
| slangasek | (the mailing list archives are down so I'm having a hard time checking - but 2.3.8 is missing from some of the savannah mirrors, which is why I suspect) | 15:07 |
| slangasek | seb128: mm, I'll probably check on upstream's ETA for the new version first | 15:07 |
| seb128 | slangasek: ok thanks | 15:08 |
| KaiL | just found a driver for the matrox M-Series - anybody interested in packaging it? ;) | 15:08 |
| cjwatson | there are some very subtle things that happen when you put udebs into seeds other than the installer seed. This open-iscsi-udeb thing is one of them. Unfortunately open-iscsi-udeb probably shouldn't go in the installer seed because that would add 170KB to all the other images. | 15:08 |
| lool | ogra: Ok; I thought d-i could be built from universe, thanks for letting me know | 15:08 |
| cjwatson | yes, ogra is correct | 15:09 |
| ogra | lool, not sure about that, cjwatson might have more info here | 15:09 |
| ogra | ah | 15:09 |
| cjwatson | d-i only uses bits from main | 15:09 |
| cjwatson | (and restricted) | 15:09 |
| lool | cjwatson: Thanks | 15:09 |
| slangasek | seb128: found a list archive that's up - 2.3.8 is the broken one - 2.3.9 is expected "within a week or so" of March 3 | 15:10 |
| cjwatson | I wonder if the right answer is to make server-ship inherit from installer. IIRC that caused some subtle problem several years ago though ... | 15:10 |
| slangasek | seb128: if they don't deliver, I'll look at backporting | 15:10 |
| cjwatson | it would make some kind of logical sense though | 15:11 |
| lool | ogra: Note: XB-Subarchitecture might have to be extended in control for babbage and perhaps for marvell if we ever support the installer there -- I doubt it though | 15:11 |
| ogra | right, we also might need ubuntu patches for babbage | 15:11 |
| lool | Well basically flash-kernel will have to be porter including its udev parts | 15:11 |
| ogra | thats why i mentioned it in the MIR | 15:12 |
| lool | ogra: What's the MIR bug? | 15:12 |
| seb128 | slangasek: thanks | 15:12 |
| ogra | lool, Bug 339947 | 15:12 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 339947 in flash-kernel "MIR for flash-kernel" [Critical,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/339947 | 15:12 |
| lool | Erf the rules have this: | 15:13 |
| lool | pwd=$(shell pwd) | 15:13 |
| lool | TOPDIR := $(shell pwd) | 15:13 |
| lool | t=${TOPDIR}/debian/${PACKAGE} | 15:13 |
| lool | And none of these vars is ever used | 15:13 |
| ogra | heh | 15:13 |
| ogra | its as odd as all the other debian arm scripting | 15:13 |
| ogra | (like swapping kernels and d-i while thats not needed etc) | 15:13 |
| lool | ogra: approved | 15:14 |
| ogra | thanks | 15:15 |
| lool | ogra: well := $(shell pwd) should be $(CURDIR) | 15:15 |
| ogra | cjwatson, i assume flash-kernel will be pulled in automatically without any of us doing anything (prio should be correct for that) once its in main ? | 15:15 |
| lool | and defining pwd to not use it a line below is a bit weird, just like defining stuff you don't use | 15:15 |
| ogra | looks liek a leftover from some hacking or so | 15:16 |
| cjwatson | ogra: please add flash-kernel-installer to the installer seed | 15:16 |
| cjwatson | preferably in an appropriate section with [armel] | 15:16 |
| lool | ogra: I'm on it | 15:17 |
| dholbach | doko: geser told me that CDBS was patched to use --install-layout=deb - would it make sense to change that in a more central place? | 15:17 |
| ogra | lool, on what ? seed or fixing the vars ? | 15:17 |
| lool | seeds | 15:17 |
| ogra | thanks | 15:17 |
| cjwatson | lool: I've removed the unused cruft from debian/rules upstream | 15:17 |
| lool | cjwatson: thanks | 15:18 |
| ogra | well, that would have been my first seed change this cycle | 15:18 |

| lool | (pushed) | 15:18 |
| ogra | thanks :) | 15:19 |
| dholbach | doko: or patch debhelper also? | 15:19 |
| geser | doko: dholbach found out that debhelper7 is missing that option | 15:19 |
| doko | dholbach: debhelper doesn't call python setup.py install, does it? | 15:20 |
| geser | doko: dh7 does it in dh_auto_install | 15:20 |
| doko | geser: sure, then please go ahead | 15:20 |
| dholbach | I think I missed some memo... why is this necessary atm? I'd just like to explain it properly when it comes up again :) | 15:21 |
| geser | dholbach: python2.6 transition | 15:22 |
| dholbach | that much I knew already... :) | 15:23 |
| dholbach | I'll try to find out more info - nevermind :) | 15:23 |
| ScottK | dholbach: There was a mail where doko explained this. I think it was ubuntu-devel. | 15:25 |
| geser | https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2009-February/027439.html has some explanation about it | 15:26 |
| dholbach | ahhh! | 15:26 |
| dholbach | got it | 15:26 |
| dholbach | thanks a lot | 15:26 |
| Keybuk | we need a developer's knowledge base with such things | 15:29 |
| dholbach | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/KnowledgeBase links to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuPackagingChanges - maybe a note about it should be on there? | 15:30 |
| geser | dholbach: apply http://www.bienia.de/tmp/debhelper.diff on debhelper and python-django-lint will build fine then | 15:30 |
| jdong | Dear World: Which xorg-video-intel freezes bug is the one that I am experiencing in Jaunty? :) | 15:30 |
| dholbach | geser: thanks a bunch | 15:30 |
| smb_tp | pitti, This seems to have been that issue. Looks like the libpolicy-kit-daemon messages are gone now | 15:31 |
| Keybuk | cjwatson: I'm -> <- this far away from writing ubuntuhelper | 15:32 |
| ogra | haha | 15:32 |
| Keybuk | which will contain one tool, uh_conffiles | 15:32 |
| Keybuk | that reads a file from the debian directory that contains things like: | 15:33 |
| Keybuk | rm /some/file | 15:33 |
| ogra | great naming :) | 15:33 |
| Keybuk | mv /another/file /somewhere/else | 15:33 |
| Keybuk | and generates all the preinst, postinst and postrm mumbo-jumbo | 15:33 |
| ogra | so you should call it ubuntugenerationhelper ... that would make it ugh_conffiles :) | 15:34 |
| pitti | Keybuk: I wouldn't mind doing that in debian/control instead, or debian/conffiles | 15:34 |
| dholbach | Keybuk: talk to mvo about it... I guess he'll add a uh_maintainerscripts :-) | 15:34 |
| pitti | declarative, not command-based | 15:34 |
| Keybuk | how would you do it declarative? | 15:35 |
| Keybuk | debian/conffiles is already an "owned" file | 15:35 |
| Keybuk | dholbach: why mvo? | 15:36 |
| dholbach | Keybuk: I think he has a strong opinion on where maintainer scripts should go :) | 15:37 |
| Keybuk | dholbach: in /var/lib/dpkg/info .. ? | 15:37 |
| pitti | debian/control-> ObsoleteConffile: /etc/foo\nRenamedConffile: /etc/foo /etc/bar | 15:37 |
| pitti | or so | 15:37 |
| Keybuk | dholbach: unless I'm missing something | 15:37 |
| mvo | Keybuk: I dislike maintainer script failures strongly during upgrades | 15:37 |
| Keybuk | pitti: why that way? | 15:37 |
| dholbach | Keybuk: I think "to hell" would be his answer | 15:37 |
| dholbach | ... maybe in a politer way | 15:37 |
| Keybuk | mvo: well, the kinda point here is to do the magic in one tested place ;) | 15:37 |
| Keybuk | instead of replicating it a billion times badly | 15:38 |
| Keybuk | even debhelper get sit wrong | 15:38 |
| doko | dholbach: sorry, currently in a meeting ... | 15:38 |
| pitti | Keybuk: with declarations we can provide one robust central implementation, and change it; replacing scripts with other scripts won't fix the problem that we currently have with it? | 15:38 |
| Keybuk | (fails to cope with the aborted upgrade case) | 15:38 |
| Keybuk | pitti: but then you hit a simple problem | 15:38 |
| dholbach | doko: sure, no worries | 15:38 |
| mvo | Keybuk: yeah, having a central place is already a great step forward | 15:38 |
| pitti | (which is largely that those scripts are often wrong, and incomplete) | 15:38 |
| Keybuk | what reads debian/control? | 15:38 |
| Keybuk | putting it in debian/control just seems wrong | 15:38 |
| cjwatson | I'd be happy to have a conffile management helper but (a) I don't think it should have rm and mv type syntax because that will encourage people to think they can do other shell-like things there (b) would it actually be hard to get it into debhelper? it sounds to me like the sort of thing that joeyh would accept even if he hasn't worked out the interface yet | 15:39 |
| Keybuk | after all you don't have the contents of debian/*.install, debian/*.manpages, etc. in there | 15:39 |
| pitti | Keybuk: the same mechanics that also reads Depends:? | 15:39 |
| pitti | Keybuk: anyway, I'm not fussed about control, but fussed about just saying what you mean, instead of telling dpkg how to do it | 15:39 |
| cjwatson | if this were to be done in dpkg proper, it probably shouldn't be in control, but in another file in the control area of the .deb | 15:39 |
| Keybuk | cjwatson: getting it in debhelper means writing in Perl | 15:40 |
| Keybuk | my Perl-fu is so rusty, I would rather not | 15:40 |
| cjwatson | Keybuk: let me dry your tears | 15:40 |
| cjwatson | it's not that hard :) | 15:40 |
| Keybuk | especially if it has to be reviewed by someone as ... careful as joeyh | 15:40 |
| calc | cjwatson: ah ok (wrt gpt issue) | 15:40 |
| cjwatson | you can run it through me first, I'll put it into joeyh-compatible form | 15:40 |
| siretart | pedro_: seb128: I've now enhanced https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Responses#ffmpeg%20(mostly%20libavcodec%20and%20libavformat)%20bugs - it now contains instructions for both triagers and submitters. I hope that's okay like it is... | 15:40 |
| cjwatson | joeyh has historically liked my perl | 15:41 |
| Keybuk | maybe | 15:41 |
| Keybuk | will see | 15:41 |
| Keybuk | actually I'd want a third option in there | 15:42 |
| cjwatson | the other thing is that it should take care of the version guards too, so the syntax suggested above is a bit too simple | 15:42 |
| Keybuk | "move", "remove" and "rename or drop" | 15:42 |
| Keybuk | actually, joey when I talked about it was of the strong opinion that it shouldn't | 15:43 |
| Keybuk | and that you should instead treat the file simply as a list of changes you need to make to any installed package | 15:43 |
| seb128 | siretart: there is some wiki formatting issue but otherwise that looks good, thanks! | 15:43 |
| cjwatson | hmm, ok, I was just going with modelling existing behaviour | 15:43 |
| davmor2 | siretart: did you miss something it looks like there is some code visible there that shouldn't be | 15:45 |
| siretart | davmor2: possibly. The page uses more moin-FU that I know. | 15:47 |
| siretart | than I know. | 15:47 |
| davmor2 | siretart: have a quick look and see if you have a trailing space after the table enclosure | 15:48 |
| pedro_ | siretart: looks good, thanks you. btw I've fixed the wiki format | 15:52 |
| davmor2 | pedro_: what was it? | 15:53 |

| slangasek | kirkland: is exim4 binary package the right one to seed on DVD? | 18:04 |
| slangasek | I know exim4 has umpteen different binaries | 18:04 |
| slangasek | hmm, why do we still seed subversion, we should replace that with bzr-svn ;) | 18:05 |
| kirkland | slangasek: oh, good question | 18:05 |
| kirkland | slangasek: moving stuff to the dvd was the conservative decision by dendrobates | 18:05 |
| slangasek | yes, I'm just thinking aloud | 18:06 |
| kirkland | slangasek: ie, to keep it around, but get it out of the cd seed | 18:06 |
| kirkland | slangasek: ah, that was a joke, no? | 18:06 |
| slangasek | and trying to judge by the channel's reaction whether it's a good idea | 18:06 |
| ScottK | I know a number of people who have a real commitment to svn for $WORK and so I think we really do want it in Main. | 18:06 |
| ScottK | It may not be used so much here, but it's definitely used a lot out there .... | 18:06 |
| slangasek | kirkland: not a joke, just a thought | 18:06 |
| cjwatson | I don't think I'd want to use bzr-svn for e.g. upstream d-i commits | 18:07 |
| slangasek | true | 18:07 |
| slangasek | kirkland: seems unnecessary to seed mysql-common directly | 18:07 |
| slangasek | ditto postgresql-common | 18:07 |
| ScottK | Approximately everything I use a VCS for outside Ubuntu is svn plus a very little git. | 18:08 |
| kirkland | slangasek: that crossed my mind | 18:08 |
| slangasek | kirkland: should we seed apache2-mpm-prefork directly? I think the only reason anyone cares about it is php5, which is also seeded | 18:08 |
| slangasek | "" apache2-common | 18:08 |
| slangasek | actually, apache2-common doesn't exist | 18:08 |
| kirkland | slangasek: dropped each of the -common | 18:09 |
| slangasek | (it's apache2.2-common, and yadda yadda) | 18:09 |
| slangasek | cool | 18:09 |
| kirkland | slangasek: -prefork ... i suppose that's fine too | 18:09 |
| pitti | Keybuk: the aliases you added to the Ubuntu kernel, are they upstream as well? | 18:09 |
| kirkland | slangasek: ie, letting -prefork get pulled in by php | 18:10 |
| pitti | Keybuk: I'm a bit concerned about tailoring our userspace tools to the ubuntu kernel too much (or the other way round, deviating our kernel too much) | 18:10 |
| kirkland | slangasek: re: exim, your choices are: exim4-base, exim4-config, exim4-daemon-heavy, exim4-daemon-light-dbg, exim4-daemon-light, exim4-dbg, exim4-dev, eximon4 | 18:11 |
| kirkland | slangasek: and just "exim4" | 18:11 |
| Keybuk | pitti: they will go upstream shortly | 18:12 |
| pitti | Keybuk: ah, nice | 18:12 |
| Keybuk | some of them already have | 18:12 |
| kirkland | slangasek: just "exim4" seemed to be the most direct | 18:12 |
| slangasek | kirkland: sounds good | 18:12 |
| pitti | Keybuk: I bought a 16 GB usb stick today, so that I can install jaunty on it and play around with sreadahead and compare how a flash disk feels like :) | 18:12 |
| Keybuk | pitti: you'll be massively slowed down by USB | 18:13 |
| slangasek | kirkland: dunno if that will cause /all/ of the -daemon- packages to be pulled onto the DVD, but I also don't know whether we want that | 18:13 |
| pitti | Keybuk: (I want it as a "portable workstation" anyway, so I won't install it in vain) | 18:14 |
| kirkland | slangasek: well, dendrobates and i sort of discussed that exim4 is not the preferred MTA of the server team, which is why we're moving it off of the cd | 18:14 |

| kirkland | RainCT: hi, you were asking about the kill-window keybinding .... | 19:16 |
| kirkland | RainCT: i actually replaced F5 with "reload profile" right around UI-freeze | 19:17 |
| kirkland | RainCT: kill window is still <ctrl-a-k> | 19:17 |
| kirkland | RainCT: which was easier than "ctrl-a-: source $HOME/.screen-profiles/profile" | 19:18 |

| kirkland | RainCT: without exiting and restarting screen, or typing that really long command | 19:22 |
| kirkland | RainCT: it also reruns all of your status indicators | 19:22 |

| cjwatson | Keybuk: is there a way to change the udevd log level at run-time? | 22:27 |
| Keybuk | udevadm control --log_priority=info | 22:27 |
| cjwatson | I'd like to be able to get a debug log just across partitioning commit, rather than for EVERYTHING | 22:27 |
| cjwatson | aha | 22:27 |
| cjwatson | thanks | 22:27 |
| Keybuk | I tend to just kill udevd and start it again, mind you | 22:30 |
| Keybuk | since then I can redirect it useful places | 22:30 |
| cjwatson | Keybuk: that doesn't cause it to coldplug? | 22:32 |
| Keybuk | no | 22:32 |
| Keybuk | only udevadm trigger does that | 22:32 |
| cjwatson | Keybuk: I can't reproduce this apparent race between libparted telling the kernel to reread the partition table and udev myself; but would a udev debug log across the relevant time be useful to you anyway? | 22:44 |
| cjwatson | Keybuk: when removing an ordinary block device, does udev open the device being removed *at all*? | 22:44 |
| cjwatson | Keybuk: http://people.ubuntu.com/~cjwatson/tmp/udev.log - I inserted three blank lines before the point where I told it to commit partitioning changes | 22:46 |
| cjwatson | that said I'm slightly curious what the crap just before that is | 22:47 |
| cjwatson | I killed udevd and restarted it at (I think) the first guided partitioning prompt, and I believe the stuff from line 369 onwards was from the next couple of guided partitioning steps (which shouldn't actually have done much to the disk, unless I'm much mistaken) | 22:48 |
| cjwatson | Keybuk: hmm. libparted opens devices read-write if it can - could this be causing a problem? | 22:51 |
| cjwatson | Keybuk: although I don't *think* it opens anything read-write between removing and adding partitions, so I think this can only be responsible for some noise at most | 22:53 |
| cjwatson | maybe we should settle before committing, just to make sure everything is out of the way | 22:54 |
