| MattJ | Anyone an idea of what might be going wrong? | 02:17 |
| andersk | Maybe your pbuilder chroot is missing universe? | 02:20 |
| MattJ | Any idea how to add/check that? :) | 02:21 |
| MattJ | I've had pbuilder working before, and I think I did exactly the same as last time | 02:22 |
| andersk | `pbuilder --login` might be the easiest way. | 02:23 |
| MattJ | libidn11-dev is in main | 02:23 |
| MattJ | Ah | 02:23 |
| andersk | txt2man is not. | 02:23 |
| MattJ | Is there something I can do to make it persist? Changes seem to be lost as soon as I log out | 02:32 |
| MattJ | I guess I should go find some pbuilder manual :) | 02:32 |
| MattJ | I was following the packaging guide on the wiki | 02:32 |

| ubottu | pbuilder is a system to easily build packages in a clean chroot environment. To get started with PBuilder, see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/PbuilderHowto | 02:34 |

| lifeless | maxb: are you still contributing to cygwin? | 06:48 |
| pitti | TonyTheTiger: most device drivers are in the linux kernel nowadays (you can browse it in gitweb, or apt-get source linux); but there are all kinds of other drivers around (such as libgphoto for PtP cameras) which live in userspace; you have to be more concrete | 06:49 |

| pitti | smb: ah, nevermind | 08:40 |
| pitti | smb: it's a gconf setting in gnome-session, /desktop/gnome/session/required_components_list | 08:40 |

| seb128 | right | 08:41 |

| smb | Hm, I thought I saw those being there... | 08:41 |
| smb | seb128, Looking into the gconf-editor I find those keys. But it does not seem to happen. Any log files I might look into? | 08:48 |

| smb | seb128, let me add one and try | 08:49 |
| seb128 | you can use the guest session to try | 08:49 |
| seb128 | njpatel: ^ what is that desktop switcher doing? | 08:50 |
| seb128 | it seems smb managed to unset required gconf keys by using it | 08:50 |
| njpatel | seb128: apart from screwing up some peoples desktops in it's current version in jaunty, it switches from netbook mode to classic mode (normal ubuntu look) | 08:50 |
| njpatel | seb128: I've already fixed the bug, and StevenK was going to help with an SRU | 08:51 |
| smb | njpatel, So it is a known "feature" then? :) | 08:51 |
| njpatel | (i've fixed it in a way that it repairs existing breakage too) | 08:51 |

| pwnguin | if a bug is known upstream and affects ubuntu | 08:57 |
| pwnguin | hmm. i should find, read and then quote what i saw earlier | 08:57 |

| pwnguin | thanks for the report, but there's no need to open the bug on Ubuntu if there's already one on the upstream bug tracker, it only creates extra work for developers and triagers, thanks. | 09:00 |
| pwnguin | how does that mesh with the SRU process? | 09:01 |

| pwnguin | dont report bugs in LP if they're already upstream in bugzilla? | 09:02 |
| StevenK | njpatel: I'm going to twiddle that bug to add a desktop-switcher task for Karmic and Jaunty. | 09:03 |
| StevenK | njpatel: The Karmic task will get closed after I upload | 09:03 |
| njpatel | okay, thanks. and I'll hassle seb128 later on today :) | 09:03 |
| maxb | Well, there's no real point reporting to LP if it's already upstream, *unless* it's for the specific purpose of nominating for SRU | 09:04 |

| pitti | cjwatson: no problem at all | 10:05 |
| cjwatson | pitti: while this should probably be dealt with so it doesn't need to do that, none of the checks in pkgsanitychecks really seem all that important for udebs; it's not as though it's important to provide the sysadmin with an area where his local changes will be preserved :-) | 10:05 |

| cjwatson | pitti: there's one in the queue ... | 10:57 |
| cjwatson | the problem with them getting out of sync is that the installer images previously published in intrepid-updates will break | 10:58 |
| cjwatson | it won't break people using the images in dists/intrepid/, but I know there are some people using the images in intrepid-updates, due to bug 293586 if nothing else | 10:59 |

I've been using 8.04 for a long time without problems. but since my upgrade to 9.04, my xorg has a memory leak. when I leave it running for several hours it consumes almost 5 gb of ram and it consumes a lot of CPU time, although I'm not at my PC. is this a known issue? any fixes? | 15:11 |
| pitti | xaaab: it certainly doesn't happen for everyone in that magnitude | 15:12 |

| cjwatson | in Debian, I fail to see why you wouldn't just put the alternative you want first! | 16:13 |
| mok0 | cjwatson: right | 16:13 |
| cjwatson | mok0: used to, talk to infinity if you have a clear demonstration of the problem | 16:13 |
| mok0 | cjwatson: "infinity" is a nick, right? :-) | 16:14 |
| ogra | heh | 16:14 |
| cjwatson | yes | 16:14 |
| ogra | for a person, yes | 16:14 |

| mok0 | infinity: are you here? | 16:15 |
| apw | (audio volume) | 16:15 |
| ogra | apw, hal ? | 16:15 |
| ogra | (just a guess) | 16:15 |
| apw | i can't see it doing it ... | 16:15 |
| apw | it seems to generate a hal event for the volume-up key | 16:16 |
| ogra | dbus-monitor should show where its coming from | 16:16 |
| ogra | apw, gnome-settings-daemon it seems | 16:17 |

| slangasek | cjwatson: the libgnomecanvas2-dbg binary on amd64 is timestamped May 6 01:05, which seems to postdate your new-binary-debian-universe fix; strange | 16:17 |

| directhex | wasn't me | 16:33 |
| jdstrand | pitti: hi! can you look at the debdiff I attached in bug #224365? I'd like to upload, but wanted to make sure I didn't step on your toes. :) | 16:43 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 224365 in cupsys "Apparmor prevents printing with cups-pdf" [Undecided,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/224365 | 16:43 |
| pitti | jdstrand: well, someone already uploaded an ubuntu specific package, so that's fine | 16:45 |
| pitti | jdstrand: I'll commit the changes to bzr and sync them back from debian soon | 16:46 |
| pitti | jdstrand: so please go ahead | 16:46 |
| jdstrand | pitti: thanks! :) | 16:48 |
| jdstrand | pitti: looking at this, would you prefer I upload based off of jaunty's ubuntu3? | 16:50 |
| jdstrand | pitti: karmic still has the sync'd version from jaunty | 16:50 |
| jdstrand | (ubuntu1) | 16:50 |
| pitti | jdstrand: you can, but it really doesn't matter much; I'll thrash the ubuntu specific version soon anyway :) | 16:50 |
| pitti | jdstrand: so in fact, if you don't consider it super-urgent, just add the debdiff to the bug and assign it to me | 16:51 |
| pitti | and I'll get it done tomorrow | 16:51 |
| jdstrand | pitti: no, it isn't super urgent. I'll assign it to you to reduce archive churn | 16:52 |
| pitti | jdstrand: argh, I'm not going to apply that -- dac_override? | 16:52 |
| pitti | jdstrand: that's precisely what I don't want to give to hacks like cups-pdf | 16:53 |
| jdstrand | pitti: yeah, it is required when $HOME is 700 | 16:53 |
| pitti | *shrug* then don't set it to 700 :) | 16:53 |
| pitti | 701 is fine as well, you also need it for public_html and such | 16:53 |
| jdstrand | pitti: sure, but the problem is that the error message is totally cryptic for the end user | 16:53 |
| pitti | jdstrand: I really wouldn't like to see cups-pdf getting more privs that it absolutely needs | 16:53 |
| pitti | jdstrand: that should probably be improved then, yes | 16:54 |
| jdstrand | pitti: basically, the user sees nothing in the ui | 16:54 |
| jdstrand | pitti: and then in kern.log, has: | 16:54 |
| jdstrand | kernel: [33228.304167] type=1503 audit(1241581234.818:31): operation="capable" name="dac_override" pid=4905 profile="/usr/lib/cups/backend/cups-pdf" | 16:55 |
| jdstrand | to me, that doesn't scream 'you need to chmod 701 your directory' :) | 16:55 |
| === robbiew is now known as robbiew-away | ||
| jdstrand | pitti: also, this isn't as simple as "don't chmod 700 your directory" because encrypted home directories via ecryptsfs do precisely that, and I think in karmic, kirkland is hoping to make this generally available | 16:58 |
| jdstrand | of course, he could 701 it... | 16:59 |
| pitti | jdstrand: can we just kill cups-pdf then? :-) | 16:59 |
| kirkland | jdstrand: sorry, do i need to catchup with this conversation? | 17:00 |
| jdstrand | pitti: well, interestinly enough, I tried to do that with an important user of mine (my wife) who has an application that doesn't use the gnome print UI, and had no way to print to pdf without cups-pdf. I tired to kill it locally... | 17:00 |
| jdstrand | kirkland: no | 17:00 |
| jdstrand | s/tired/tried/ | 17:00 |
| kirkland | jdstrand: ;-) | 17:01 |
| jdstrand | pitti: regardless, I've assigned the bug to you per your request. Feel free to 'Invalid'ate if you think that is the best course (I certainly see your point of view) | 17:02 |
| pitti | jdstrand: well, I'll ponder it | 17:03 |
| pitti | jdstrand: if the apparmor rules restrict access to /home thoroughly, it's probalby not too bad | 17:03 |
| pitti | but it would be able to write stuff into /etc or other places which teh profile doesn't cover | 17:03 |

| lamont | sadly | 17:05 |
| slangasek | which argument? | 17:05 |
| slangasek | I think default-mta as a stand-alone package would be a little better for derivs | 17:06 |
| jdstrand | pitti: I'm looking at the profile, and I don't see that you gave rw to anything in /etc, so I don't think that is a problem | 17:06 |

| slangasek | mvo: hmm; using the update-manager in jaunty-updates, I just had a weird experience where update-manager wanted me to have 50MB free on /usr when the actual update only required 123KB additional space | 17:21 |
| mvo | slangasek: 123kb addtional diskspace + 49mb downloaded debs? or were allt the debs downloaded already? | 17:22 |
| mvo | slangasek: is it reproducable? | 17:22 |
| slangasek | mvo: the .debs added up to < 5MB in size | 17:23 |
| slangasek | dunno; I can try downgrading those packages later to see | 17:23 |
| mvo | slangasek: right, sorry, I just checked the source and it has this as a safety buffer (min 50mb free) - I admit its a bit much | 17:24 |
| slangasek | ah | 17:24 |
| mvo | slangasek: its a leftover from the days when the free space checker would only check for release upgrades, then 50mb extra was ok, but for normal updates with just 4 pkgs its not | 17:25 |
| * mvo adds it to his todo list | 17:25 | |
| slangasek | want a bug report? :) | 17:25 |

| asac | kees: so eth6 is the device you want to see managed by NM? | 17:48 |
| kees | asac: right | 17:48 |
| asac | kees: do you need it to be configured in there? otherwise just remove the eth6 entry from interfaces | 17:49 |
| kees | asac: ah, no, don't need it in there. removing it will fix n-m to use it again? | 17:49 |
| asac | kees: yeah. NM runs in ifupdown-unmanaged mode by default. so everything configured in there will be ignored. two ways to fix this: a) remove that configureation (preferred), b) enable managed mode in /etc/NetworkManager/nm-system-settings.conf | 17:50 |
| kees | ah-ha, yes, I see the "managed=false" setting now. the semantics for what n-m keeps changing. :) thanks, I'll give "a)" a shot. | 17:51 |

| jdstrand | pitti: ok, I played with dac_override a little bit to make sure my understanding is correct | 18:39 |
| jdstrand | pitti: if dac_override is not set, then DAC is checked first. if DAC doesn't permit it, then no access. if DAC does allow it, then the profile is checked and access is determined there | 18:40 |
| jdstrand | pitti: if dac_override is set, then DAC simply is not consulted and only the profile is checked | 18:40 |
| pitti | jdstrand: right; root has DAC_OVERRIDE usually, which is what allows him to ignore file permissions | 18:41 |
| pitti | so if we give that priv, the policy can't rely on DAC any more, and needs to be super-tight | 18:41 |
| jdstrand | pitti: apparmor requires explicitly allowing access to files, so unless the profile is too loose to begin with, there shouldn't be a problem | 18:41 |
| jdstrand | pitti: correct | 18:41 |
| jdstrand | pitti: however, looking at the cups-pdf policy, it looks super-tight anyway | 18:42 |
| jdstrand | pitti: so, I'll defer to your judgement, but adding dac_override seems ok to me based on the current profile | 18:43 |
| pitti | jdstrand: I'll look at it again | 18:43 |
| pitti | jdstrand: sorry, have to run to sports now | 18:43 |
| jdstrand | pitti: np. have fun! :) | 18:43 |

| chrisccoulson | if i propose to merge a bzr branch in to another one (say, my branch in to an ubuntu-core-dev branch), should i assign a reviewer to it? does anyone get notified of the merge proposal if i don't specify a reviewer? | 20:37 |
| ScottK | Every core-dev gets notified. | 20:42 |
| chrisccoulson | ScottK - thanks:) | 20:42 |
| === awe_ is now known as awe | ||
| james_w | chrisccoulson: the default reviewer of an ubuntu-core-dev branch is ubuntu-core-dev which leads to a mail to ubuntu-devel@ now, so plenty of people see it | 20:51 |
| james_w | however, we need to do better at having a list of outstanding requests, which is something I am working with the LP team on | 20:51 |
| chrisccoulson | james_w - thanks. perhaps i would have been better off assigning a reviewer rather than spamming the whole list;) | 20:52 |
| james_w | chrisccoulson: it makes sense if there is a particular person. It would be a bit like subscribing that person directly to a sponsorship bug instead of u-m-s, except that u-m-s doesn't cause a mail to ubuntu-devel@ | 20:53 |
| === awe is now known as awe-afk | ||
| ScottK | james_w: I'm glad to hear you are working on this. Thanks. | 20:54 |
| james_w | np | 20:55 |
| james_w | I'd like to have a better system that what we currently have | 20:55 |
| james_w | it's just not that easy because we are slightly odd :-) | 20:55 |
| ScottK | I think distro 'development' is different in many respects than upstream development and LP seems more focused on the latter use case than the former. | 20:57 |
| james_w | yeah | 20:57 |
| james_w | especially for merge proposals so far, as it wasn't available for distributions before | 20:57 |
| james_w | they are keen to fix that, there just aren't obvious answers | 20:57 |
| mweichert | hello, I'm trying to preseed a hardy installation. I want to slipstream all of the hardy updates on the cd so that after I finish the installation, I'm not left with 200+ packages to upgrade. | 20:59 |
| mweichert | to do this, do I just replace /dists and /pool on the live cd with those that are in archive.ubuntu.com ? | 20:59 |
| james_w | mweichert: nope, the live install doesn't install from debs | 20:59 |
| james_w | you would need to build a new live environment with the updates | 21:00 |
| mweichert | james_w, okay, in the squashfs image? | 21:00 |
| mweichert | james_w, what's /dists and /pool for then? | 21:00 |
| james_w | yeah | 21:00 |
| james_w | extra packages that are available, but not actually installed | 21:01 |
| mweichert | hmm, ok | 21:01 |
| mweichert | james_w, so the installer just copies the squashfs to /target, is that right? | 21:01 |
| james_w | not "just", no, but to a first approximation, yes | 21:02 |
| === awe-afk is now known as awe | ||
| mweichert | james_w, sorry - that was over-simplifying.. I guess what I'm trying to determine is that if I edit the squashfs by installing the debs I want, those debs will get installed on /target. | 21:04 |
| mweichert | james_w, is that a safe assumption you think? | 21:04 |
| james_w | I've no idea whether it will work, sorry | 21:04 |
| MattJ | Hmm, does anyone know if it is possible to build for etch using the Ubuntu pbuilder? | 21:08 |
| MattJ | The wiki suggests it should be, but I'm having problems | 21:08 |
| james_w | it should be | 21:08 |
| mweichert | james_w, okay, thanks for your help. I really appreciate it. I've been having a hard time trying to find this information. | 21:09 |
| mweichert | james_w, to be sure though, you're certain that /pool just contains extras? | 21:09 |
| james_w | mweichert: I guess there aren't enough debs in there to make a full system? | 21:10 |
| ScottK | MattJ: Yes. I do it all the time. | 21:10 |
| MattJ | From: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PbuilderHowto it says use: sudo DIST=etch pbuilder create, but the first line pbuilder prints is "Distribution is jaunty." | 21:10 |
| james_w | if there were then you would only be able to use the half the space on the CD for the live environment. | 21:10 |
| MattJ | ScottK: I'm using 8.04, could that be an issue? | 21:11 |
| james_w | mweichert: #ubuntu-installer is the dedicated channel for this stuff | 21:11 |
| ScottK | MattJ: I did it with that too, so I don't think so. | 21:11 |
| MattJ | ScottK: I see: Failed getting release file http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/etch/Release | 21:12 |
| MattJ | I tried --othermirror, but it seems to have no effect | 21:12 |
| ScottK | MattJ: http://pastebin.com/f78072aa4 is the pbuilder wrapper script I use. If you name that pbuilder-sid it should just work. | 21:12 |
| MattJ | Hmm, I'll try it... thanks :) | 21:13 |

| ScottK | Since Debian is planning on 1.38 for Squeeze, I wonder if it might be better. | 21:24 |

| james_w | bigon: does that make sense? | 22:48 |
| BUGabundo | $ sudo dkpg -I linux.......deb | 22:48 |
| === evan_ is now known as eck | ||
| bigon | james_w: I've not followed everything :o | 22:52 |
| james_w | bigon: you have two easy options, either make it expand ${prefix} before passing it in there | 22:52 |
| james_w | or add a mv in debian/rules (or something with .install) to fix it up | 22:53 |
| james_w | I'm not clear on what the effects of the first will be given the fact that it is done that way currently | 22:53 |
| bigon | james_w: yeah but without binpkgmangler the file are automagically moved | 22:54 |
| james_w | by what? | 22:54 |
| james_w | pkgbinarymangler is throwing it out at dpkg-deb time, so it's too late to move by then isn't it? | 22:55 |
| james_w | I'm not sure that it interferes before | 22:55 |
| bigon | let me check again | 22:55 |

| calc | slangasek: i'm not really in platform (more or less) for the next 6 months | 22:58 |
| slangasek | oh? | 22:58 |
| slangasek | I guess I missed that memo | 22:58 |
| calc | slangasek: moved to oem with doko and persia | 22:58 |
| slangasek | ... but still dealing with OOo? :) | 22:59 |
| calc | i have 20% time for OOo but i doubt that would be enough to do OOo and boost traisntion, not even enough to do bug triage really :\ | 22:59 |
| slangasek | ok | 22:59 |
| calc | gah typing too fast to see my words leads to typos, heh | 22:59 |
| BUGabundo | sorry to hear calc! I did a great job up until now | 22:59 |
| calc | slangasek: but ideally we will be doing a transition from 1.35/1.37 to 1.38 | 23:00 |
| slangasek | ah | 23:00 |
| calc | 1.38 currently FTBFS though :\ | 23:00 |
| calc | slangasek: aiui 1.37 is supposed to be removed from Debian sometime soon | 23:03 |
| slangasek | hmm, ok | 23:03 |
| slangasek | I'll have a look at the 1.38 ftbfs, then | 23:03 |
| NCommander | calc, thats a nasty FTBFS :-/ | 23:03 |
| directhex | boost? | 23:12 |
| calc | directhex: yea | 23:16 |
| directhex | have fun. extra fun thanks to apps build-depending on specific versions of boost rather than the un-abi'd -dev packages | 23:16 |
| BUGabundo | ok, what's boost? | 23:18 |
| calc | directhex: iirc the un-abi'd version is 1.34 | 23:20 |
| calc | yea 1.34.1 | 23:20 |
| calc | BUGabundo: http://www.boost.org/ | 23:20 |
| directhex | calc, i'll bite: "why is the default (un-ABI'd version) neolithic?" | 23:23 |
| dtchen | TheMuso: from a prelim glance, current git HEAD of linux-2.6 is nearly 1.0.20 without some quirks, but the core and mid-layer are identical | 23:24 |
| calc | directhex: no idea | 23:25 |
| calc | directhex: probably for historical reasons | 23:25 |
| dtchen | TheMuso: i'm chasing a -plugins sig11 atm | 23:25 |
| directhex | calc, historical raisins be damned, this is ubuntu, not debian! | 23:25 |
| calc | directhex: it may be versioned for newer ones due to api changes (my guess anyway) | 23:25 |
| calc | directhex: if is the case it explains why they didn't bother to fix it for 1.34 since the proper fix would be to have no libboost-dev at all | 23:26 |
| slangasek | nono, the proper fix would be to have no libboost.* at all ;) | 23:26 |
| directhex | slangasek, <partisan> oh dear, then no gnote. what a dreadful shame! | 23:27 |
| mathiaz | slangasek: hm - IIUC there is a library transition (or something like that) currently hapening in debian wrt to the upload krb5 1.7 to unstable | 23:27 |
| directhex | calc, that seems horribly broken to me - version the deps, fix the software | 23:27 |
| mathiaz | slangasek: what does this mean for Ubuntu? | 23:27 |
| mathiaz | slangasek: ie - I'd like to get krb5 1.7 synced in karmic. | 23:28 |
| slangasek | mathiaz: should just require rebuilds, I think | 23:28 |
| mathiaz | slangasek: IIUC the main point is that krb4 is dropped | 23:29 |
| slangasek | yep | 23:29 |
| mathiaz | slangasek: so - what should I do to get things moving? Ask a sync request and upload all necessary packages? | 23:30 |
| slangasek | mathiaz: sounds right :) | 23:30 |
| mathiaz | slangasek: should I test that all necessary packages build before asking for the sync to happen? | 23:31 |
| mathiaz | slangasek: or ask for the sync and start uploading once the new krb5 is published? | 23:31 |
| slangasek | mathiaz: the latter is fine | 23:31 |
| mathiaz | slangasek: great - thanks. I'll go get the list of packages to rebuild :) | 23:32 |
| directhex | what's the policy on upstream versions for gnome? gnome 2.28 seems to be coming out terribly close to release | 23:32 |
| ajmitch | directhex: usually gnome releases at the same time as the beta release for ubuntu | 23:33 |
| ajmitch | afaik there's a standing exception for getting new upstream releases of gnome in | 23:34 |
| directhex | ajmitch, short version: will tomboy 1.0.0 (part of gnome 2.28) definitely be allowed in, and if so, is it worth making a 0ubuntu1 of the latest development release? | 23:34 |
| ajmitch | directhex: ask an RM :) | 23:35 |
| directhex | slangasek, i think he means you! | 23:35 |
| slangasek | directhex: if tomboy is releasing on time with GNOME 2.28, then yes, please track its dev releases | 23:36 |
| directhex | gotcha | 23:36 |
| mathiaz | slangasek: hm - I'm not sure I completely understand how the libkrb53 is done in debian. | 23:42 |
| mathiaz | slangasek: relevant changelog entries are 1.6.dfsg.4~beta1-7, 1.6.dfsg.4~beta1-8, 1.7dfsg~beta1-2 and 1.7dfsg~beta1-3 | 23:42 |
| mathiaz | slangasek: the last entry mentioned an change that will be reverted before end of may 2009. | 23:43 |
| apachelogger | james_w: do you know if there is any script to create released branches of a given set of development branches (i.e. branch /ubuntu to /jaunty)? | 23:55 |
| james_w | "bzr branch"? :-) | 23:55 |
| slangasek | mathiaz: hmm, I'm quite confused by that last entry | 23:56 |
| slangasek | may have been a no-op, really | 23:57 |
