[14:03] #startmeeting [14:03] Meeting started at 08:03. The chair is ttx. [14:03] Commands Available: [TOPIC], [IDEA], [ACTION], [AGREED], [LINK], [VOTE] [14:03] [TOPIC] Roadmap review [14:03] New Topic: Roadmap review [14:03] hhmmmkay, so Robilad, persia and slytherin aren't around [14:03] which leaves some status update on Java-Contents stuff [14:04] ok [14:04] I'll be producing Jaunty's Java-Contents file before the end of the week [14:04] that's tomorrow! [14:05] euh. Yes. [14:05] have you looked at the javahelper package, there are some tools to dicover java classes in the installed jars [14:05] ludovicc: no [14:05] I'll have a look [14:05] On the "attract java packagers" side... [14:06] I'll try to run a packaging class [14:06] sometime in May [14:06] based on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JavaTeam/LibraryPackaging [14:06] that's all in Roadmap. [14:07] ludovicc: Should we add "Maven support / debian-java sync" to the Roadmap ? [14:07] ok, when I'm more ready with the Maven packaging, I will add a tutorial there as well [14:07] yes, that would be a good idea [14:07] ok, let's assume there already was. I'm editing the page as we speak [14:07] could you give us some update on that ? [14:08] right, I have updated most of the packages used by Maven (plexus, modello, doxia soon) to include Maven POMs [14:09] ludovicc: in Debian ? [14:09] those POMs will then be useful when building other Maven based packages [14:09] ludovicc: did those mods make it to unstable yet ? [14:09] it's still in my PPA https://launchpad.net/~ludovicc/+archive/ppa/ [14:10] I will push them to Debian anytime soon [14:10] ludovicc: cool. If they make it to unstable we will pick the changes up at Karmic sync/merge time [14:11] that's the best way, since the java experts are essentially on the debian side [14:11] ok, that's good. I have seen already many new Java packages in Jaunty, keep going! [14:12] ludovicc: Did you sort out your membership details ? [14:12] next step, I will update maven-debian-helper to work with my last work [14:13] after that we should be able to package about any Maven stuff [14:13] not yet, I'm waiting for some news. I will try to contact Persia directly [14:13] I was expecting to chat with him now... [14:14] ludovicc: you already applied to ubuntu-java, right ? [14:14] yes, I see it now [14:14] yes I did, pressed the button [14:15] doko: could you approve "Ludovic Claude" on ~ubuntu-java ? Or delegate to persia or me the ability to do so ?

I'm generating with it some postinst,postrm scripts, would appreciate a review of those [14:17] ludovicc: sure, i'll have a look [14:18] I can take it from your PPA ? [14:18] the instructions for how this package is supposed to be used are here: http://wiki.debian.org/Java/MavenRepoHelper [14:18] yes [14:19] ok. Anything else ? [14:19] all other packages published on my PPA use maven-repo-helper so you have lots of examples [14:20] nothing else [14:20] [TOPIC] Next meeting [14:20] New Topic: Next meeting [14:20] Same date, same place, next week ?

Unfortunately, we look for a much longer period of sustained and significant contribution from membership candidates. [17:05] How long should I contribute? [17:06] Several months [17:07] Is 2 months enough? [17:07] Probably not [17:07] But I have been distributing CD's since January [17:08] Which means that I have been Contributing for 3 months rite? [17:09] I have been copying the CD's and passing to my friends since Jan [17:09] Most people do [17:10] So can't you consider my contribution started from January? [17:11] pls reply [17:12] pls reply Cody [17:13] vikashkoushik: It needs to be continued contribution that can be seen. Just continue the work you're doing and you'll see that the time will soon fly by.

[22:31] ogra, I added that on the Roadmap [22:31] good [22:31] * ogra would like to not confirm it himself [22:32] [topic] bug #349504: if system date is set to 01-01-1970 users are enforced to update their password [22:32] New Topic: bug #349504: if system date is set to 01-01-1970 users are enforced to update their password [22:32] Launchpad bug 349504 in shadow "if system date is set to 01-01-1970 users are enforced to update their password" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/349504 [22:32] That was mine, fixed released :-) [22:32] *fix released [22:32] I can confirm it works now [22:33] woo [22:33] now if I could just keep the date after setting it on my system :( [22:33] plars, mine survives reboots, but it goes away if I unplug the box [22:33] :-/ [22:33] update-initramfs: deferring update (trigger activated) [22:33] No flash-kernel [22:33] lool, hmm, update-initramfs has detection code for lilo based systems .. there it only spills a warning [22:33] NCommander: right [22:33] [topic] Low priority bugs [22:33] New Topic: Low priority bugs [22:34] but doesnt run lilo [22:34] [topic] #299847 libipc-sharelite-perl FTBFS on armel [22:34] New Topic: #299847 libipc-sharelite-perl FTBFS on armel [22:34] ogra: You need to target to release [22:34] I did that now [22:34] No progress, none excepted until its either reproduced on something beside the buildds, or we replace the buildds :-) [22:34] [topic] bug #280669: DMA mode and driver on jax10 [22:34] New Topic: bug #280669: DMA mode and driver on jax10 [22:34] Launchpad bug 280669 in linux "DMA mode and driver jax10" [Low,Invalid] https://launchpad.net/bugs/280669 [22:35] Talked with apw, decided we didn't need the patch. [22:35] Scratched off the roadmap :-) [22:35] [topic] Open Discussion [22:35] New Topic: Open Discussion [22:35] lool, ah, no, the warning is only for the case where lilo and grub are both installed, else it runs lilo [22:35] lool, so we can just steal that code [22:35] bug #337809 [22:35] Launchpad bug 337809 in linux "APIC error on CPU 0" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/337809 [22:35] So, I posted a call for specs for karmic. Has everyone registered a couple yet? [22:35] ogra, are you taking the update-initramfs issue? [22:35] Oh, right [22:35] Ahem [22:36] [topic] Specs for karmic [22:36] New Topic: Specs for karmic [22:36] Anyone have questions about the procedure or the deadline? [22:36] why is that still there ? [22:36] persia, what is the deadline? [22:36] it was just a notification from david [22:36] Procedure, yes. [22:36] GrueMaster, what's the question? [22:36] persia: having never been through it before, not even sure what to ask [22:36] ogra, it wasn't on the roadmap, I brought it up for persia [22:37] need to find the email again first, then I'll ask. [22:37] NCommander, ah, but it shouldnt be a constant item [22:37] ogra, its not on the roadmap [22:37] good [22:37] ogra: well it would be cool to avoid running flash-kernel twice [22:37] plars, Basically, we determine what we're going to look at for the next cycle, and start drafting specifications for discussion at UDS. [22:37] lool, well, i doubt you can [22:37] ogra: perhaps check discussion in debian-boot? [22:38] you will only run it twice if a kernel is installed as well [22:38] That's what I mean [22:38] NCommander, maybe you have a minute after the meeting? [22:38] it will run once on normal update-initramfs runs [22:38] We only rebuild initrd once [22:38] knome, sure [22:38] Would be nice to only flash-kernel once [22:38] NCommander, just ping me once you are free [22:38] ogra: Anyway, I don't want to discuss this tonight => /me is tired [22:39] persia: I understand that much, but are these basically wishlist items? or things that have already been fully architected, designed, and have a start on implementation? Also, with the requirement about needing to sign up to implement it, not sure what to do at this point [22:39] GrueMaster, I haven't had that APCI issue on real hardware [22:39] * ogra just doesnt understand if its dangerous or cosmetic issues lool has with that [22:39] plars: It's exactly in between: stuff which will be implemented and we need to architect properly [22:39] if its the latter we shouldnt care in jaunty [22:39] I have. Crown Beach and Acer Aspire One. [22:39] plars, Somewhere between wishlist and started :) It should be achievable within the timeframe, and testable for release. [22:40] ogra: It's cosmetic; I'm trying to shoot for the proper design first when I can though [22:40] GrueMaster, can you try to reproduce with the alternate image? (I just want to see if its live only, since I haven't seen it) [22:40] Goes away if you add apci=ht to the kernel [22:40] GrueMaster, its on the roadmap [22:40] lool, right, but we'Re at a point where changes need to be minimal [22:40] Yes [22:40] proper design means big changes in this case [22:40] * persia waves the specifications flag harder, in the hopes that people notice that the deadline is *before* release. [22:40] I agree you have little time to think about this and it's likely we hardcode a call to flash-kernel $somewhere [22:41] but lets discuss that later, not tonight [22:41] persia: I'm afraid I'm buried in release stuff [22:41] * ogra agrees with the tiredness [22:41] * lool beats persia with the release flag [22:41] persia, davidm said all that last week [22:41] lool, I understand, but anything not put up before the 21st won't make UDS. [22:41] I didn't make up the deadline, and it's fairly firm. [22:42] its only about registering slots in the UDS schedule [22:42] Perhaps we could move the release by a week to work a little on the specs? ;-) [22:42] heh :) [22:43] Anyway, the specs don't need to be *done*, just outlined. Registration, title, summary, etc. [22:43] not even that [22:43] Sorry guys I know it's a pain but I'm getting pushed hard on this. [22:43] Yes, all of that. [22:43] LP blueprint and entry on the wikipage for the schedule [22:43] ogra, And summary. [22:43] * NCommander notes we are two weeks from release [22:43] its really only for the schedule [22:43] REPENT, THE END IS NEAR! [22:43] :-) [22:44] When is RC? [22:44] thu [22:44] GrueMaster, 7 days [22:44] Oooooh [22:44] that remidns me [22:44] Someone needs to get Babbage on the ISO tester [22:44] milestones and releases are always on thursdays [22:44] we're the thursday distro ;) [22:45] * NCommander wonders if that was true for Dapper as well ... [22:45] Yes. [22:45] Ah I have a topic to add [22:45] dapper will always have a special place in my heart for its version [22:45] lool, go ahead [22:45] what images do we want to test for release exactly? [22:46] I had in mind to test ubuntu live (gnome) for babbage, perhaps the xubuntu one; I wonder about the server one [22:46] nslu2, babbage versatile, UNR, MID [22:46] And then UNR MID as usual and the netboots [22:46] lpia alternative [22:46] (now that we have them) [22:46] With all of the images currently available, we need to divvy up the load a bit. [22:47] Are all of these in the tracker [22:47] lool, no [22:47] lool, well, UNR and MID are. NSLU2, Babbage, Versatile, and lpia alt are not [22:47] GrueMaster: ack, they are too many, i'm losing track of what to test [22:47] BTW, will we be getting Babbage alternatives? (the installer works) [22:47] (we just need the image building bits) [22:47] NCommander: there's an entry for netboot I think [22:47] * ogra would actually prefer to not have NSLU2 on the tracker :P [22:48] NCommander: You tried alternate armel on SD card? [22:48] I made it build, but never heard of anybody running it [22:48] lool, yeah, both netboot and cdrom [22:48] Both work and run through the entire install [22:48] Oh the d-i ones, not the alternate ones [22:48] At the time it didn't install the kernel though, but that was about a week ago, so that should be fixed. [22:48] The reason I suggest spreading the load is due to download and install times. It takes almost an hour to download and install babbage image, let alone do any substantive testing. [22:48] Err a week ago we weren't building SD cards for alternate [22:49] lool, I was on the impression the SD cards for alternative didn't have the initrd in place, if thats changed, I'll test them [22:49] NCommander: What did you test exactly? The d-i bits? [22:50] You grabbed stuff from ports.u.c, right? [22:50] GrueMaster: ack [22:50] lool, I took the d-i kernel and initramfs, put them on the SD card and ran the install [22:50] GrueMaster: one hour sounds a bit long; it's shorter here, and I'm not rich in bandwidth [22:50] It completed except for installing the kernel and bootloader since at that point the postinst had not been implemented to my knowledge. [22:50] GrueMaster: I think we need to split the testing more, and limit the number of images [22:51] davidm: What images do we really need well tested? [22:51] That includes install. My install just completed, and I started it at the beginning of the meeting. [22:51] Do we have hardware for all of these images? I've had poor success getting the arm netboot images running well under qemu [22:51] NCommander: Ok, what I was speaking about with alternate images were the cdimage ones below /ports/daily [22:52] plars: They should work [22:52] plars: Unless they are broken, which is possible [22:52] That's for versatile [22:52] lool, that I can test [22:52] For iop32x, I have hardware (but nobody cares) and for ixp4xx NCommander and ogra have hardware [22:52] lool: versatile is the one I'm trying right now, and it takes somewhere around 12 hours just to complete the install [22:52] That's all netboots [22:52] That's long [22:52] I thought one of us had orion5x hardware as well [22:52] lool, well, i just saw infinity complaining that libc6-vfp gets pulled in on all armel arches [22:53] lool, the versatile slowness could be caused by that [22:53] Uh no [22:53] Does it claim VFP? [22:53] no idea, but vfp is a dep of ubuntu-minimal [22:53] Yes, that's intended [22:53] I have orion5x hardware, but I was told that kernel was dropped. [22:53] Just like i686 [22:54] persia, not yet to my knowledge [22:54] plars, ogra: Could one of you confirm whether libc6-vfp is the culprit? [22:54] And file a bug [22:54] Oh, then I'll try an install once I get the rest of the VFP stuff sorted. [22:54] We could perhaps still fix that [22:54] lool, i have nslu2 [22:54] In qemu [22:54] plars, ^^^ can you care for versatile ? [22:55] ogra: It wont slow down on NSLU2 for sure [22:55] no, but nslu2 eats my time [22:55] The question is in qemu, perhaps emulating a VFP via qemu is slower than running emulated floats in qemu [22:55] ogra: I can try, but it's almost too slow to even try to test anything [22:55] so i would prefer to stick with babbage and nslu2 if i'm not urgently needed [22:55] plars: Use a shell and move the vfp lib away [22:55] plars: See if that helps in qemu [22:55] lool: I'll try that [22:56] NCommander, According to https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/2.6.28-11.41/+build/941224 it is gone. [22:56] plars, if you need help i'm there [22:56] ogra: thanks [22:56] i just dont want to lead this additionally [22:56] persia, then feel free to ignore me [22:56] So who wants the action item to see that getting onto the release tracker? [22:56] davidm: What images do we really need well tested? [22:57] NCommander: I can probably see about that if I have a good list of what should be there exactly [22:57] * persia points out that there are 3 minutes left. [22:58] Oh, important heads up [22:59] plars: Let's stick with the conservative: MID, UNR -- already there; we need to split netboot probably, and then imx51 live, and perhaps lpia alternate [22:59] I'm not going to be around tomorrow for Easter, or if I am, I will only be so in the morning in all likelyhood. [22:59] same here [23:00] I'll be around unless the sun comes out, then I'll be at the golf course hiding my golf balls around the course. :P [23:02] Anyway [23:02] Final announcements going in 3 [23:02] 2 [23:02] 1 [23:02] #endmeeting [23:02] Meeting finished at 17:02. [23:02] thanks NCommander [23:03] yes, thanks NCommander [23:03] np ogra and lool [23:03] minutes are up already === lifeless_ is now known as lifeless
