TheMusonixternal: seems like no sound hardware was found on your system at all, re your bug 38296800:04

nixternalya, during upgrade from jaunty -> karmic, somehow my user was removed from the audio group00:09
TheMusoah00:09
nixternalhow I missed that is beyond me00:09
nixternalhaha00:09
dtcheni'm not entirely sure, since i don't have a kubuntu jaunty live image, whether the default user is in @audio to begin with00:11
johanbrI thought ubuntu didn't use the audio group anymore?00:11
TheMusoIt doesn't.00:12
dtchenjohanbr: correct for ubuntu jaunty, which uses pulseaudio alongside consolekit00:12
ajmitchdtchen: I'm not in audio on my jaunty box here at work00:12
TheMusoits all policykit driven.00:12
TheMusothe only deriv that adds the user to the audio group is studio.00:12

cjwatson(user-setup 1.20ubuntu3)00:12
ajmitchare there some differences with groups between kubuntu & ubuntu there?00:12
cjwatsonnot as far as the installer is concerned00:12
* ajmitch would hope not00:12
cjwatsonexpanding a little on what TheMuso said, ubuntustudio is the only derivative built on the main infrastructure that changes the default groups set by the installer *at all*00:14
cjwatson(it sets them to 'adm audio cdrom dialout lpadmin plugdev sambashare' right now)00:14

HobbseeKeybuk: just reading the meeting logs now, but we do (IMO) need more ops in here, while europe is asleep.  slangasek would be a great start, but some more would be good.02:23
Hobbseealthough i agree with you on getting developers who are around, if possible02:23
* TheMuso watches IRC quite regularly during his work day at least.02:25
TheMusoParticularly in here.02:25
HobbseeTheMuso: you would probably be a good candidate to be on the list, too, then02:25
* TheMuso needs to go and read the meeting log when he has time.02:26
TheMusohrm. ptlib supports esd/esound, yet we don't build support for that. That would be at least one way of getting better pulse support for ekiga...03:04
lifelessTheMuso+103:17
slangasekcjwatson: I don't think we really reached a conclusion about how to handle gcc-multilib under multiarch; we could have a gcc wrapper that handles -m32/-m64, but that's fairly unsatisfactory IMHO, and still implies cross-arch build-dependencies for packages that really truly need to build 32-bit code on amd64 (and there are some), so I guess we need to have a way to handle that?03:51
slangasek(at which point gcc-multilib can stay as it is, rather than needlessly shuffling the problem down the line)03:52
slangasekalso, I just noticed that we can't use the [arch] syntax to declare a cross-arch build-dep, because that syntax is already used for arch-specific build-deps...03:52

I feel I got everything, but another pair of eyes is useful. Thanks.06:34

TheMusolifeless: if you are referring to your diffs in those bugs, I am about to get to those.,06:57
TheMusoc06:57
TheMusowoops wrong window06:57
lifelessTheMuso: to the apparent way that udev is calling dmraid-activate four times with 'no' 'block' 'devices' 'found'06:58
lifelesssimply knowing that my patched dmraid-activate, with logging enabled, boots for other people would be good06:58
* TheMuso rechecks the udev rule.06:58
TheMusolifeless: I am stumped as to why udev returns no block devices found. The syntax for the rule looks correct. I will have to do a karmic dmraid install to see what the hell is going on.07:12
lifelessTheMuso: When you can that would rock07:12
TheMusook07:12
lifelessTheMuso: The only theory I have at the moment is that the no block devices found array is coming from dmraid itself07:12
lifelessor something linked to the same lib07:13
TheMusoRight.07:13
lifelessbut I'm damned if I can see the freaking cause07:13
TheMusohrm a brain wave. It could be mkid/whatever vol_id's replacement was.07:13
TheMusovol_id had its own code to deal with dmraid arrays, and its replacement obviously doesn't know about your hpa stuff, same thing with jaunty and vol_id.07:14
TheMusoWHich means more patching is needed.07:14
lifeless\o/07:14
lifelessis vol_id calledbefore dmraid ?07:14
TheMusoYes.07:15
lifelessor after? if vol_id is called on the dmraid mapper device it would be fine07:15
TheMusoNot in the dmraid rule, but in other rules.07:15

pittilifeless: BTW, it's pretty hard to entirely wreck the machine; if nothing else helps, blacklisting the i915 module is a pretty sure way to get it back up (without acceleration/compiz/etc. of course)08:20
cjwatsonTheMuso: IMO dmraid-activate should be checking the exit status of dmraid nowadays, now that dmraid exits non-zero if it can't find anything, rather than doing those dodgy tests on its output08:25
cjwatsonslangasek: in some ways I'd rather that build-dependencies were always native, which would seem to suggest that we would need to keep around a small number of biarch libraries as well. I wonder if it's just glibc in practice, or if there are more?08:28
cjwatsonslangasek: we didn't really discuss the problem of /usr/share/doc/<package>/ at UDS - I see there are several options for that in the spec but I don't recall us settling on something08:28
cjwatsonoh good, I see that dh_compress uses gzip -n nowadays - that should probably be a requirement for any multiarch package to avoid spurious differences08:29

sorenIs there a way to query whether a given package was installed manually or pulled in as a dep? I know the info is in /var/lib/apt/extended_states, but does apt or aptitude expose it somehow (preferably in a scriptable manner)?10:38

ion_I use debfoster to handle the automatic/manual state and apt-mark-sync to sync its decisions to apt and aptitude, since they all still don’t use a shared database for that.10:51

slangasekcjwatson: it looks like it's just libc6 that gcc-multilib woud build-depend on for biarch.  So we can do that, though I think that would still be a blemish13:52
slangasekcjwatson: /usr/share/doc/<package> - I discussed it with guillem after the session, and his plan is to have dpkg keep track of file checksums directly and only allow co-installability if overlapping files match13:53

=== mok01 is now known as mok0_laptop
cjwatsonslangasek: my worry about that was always that it means that non-identical versions implicitly conflict, which seems to me to be a likely source of lurking difficulties for upgrades13:55
cjwatsonor was that the "implicit Replaces: same-binary (<< ${binary:Version}) [different-arch]" thing?13:55
cjwatsonI think I came in half-way through that13:56
slangasekyeah, that was that one... I think that's effectively what guillem is doing, with the added constraint that two multiarch packages aren't allowed to be configured unless they're at the same version13:57
cjwatsonslangasek: I suspect we also have a number of packages that don't use gzip -n for one reason or another, so that will have to be a requirement for anything with Multi-Arch: set13:57

keescjwatson: ah, only a few minutes of duplicated work.  I was actually thinking we could just drop all the Ubuntu-changes since everything else is in Debian now.15:00
keescjwatson: I was figuring we'd need something to replace "chpasswd -e" eventually.  it's just "now".15:01
keescjwatson: trouble is, more than just g-s-t uses chpasswd.  vmbuilder uses chpasswd -e, and I think, d-i, though I'm not sure if it calls it with -e.  (I think not)15:02
sorend-i accepts encrypted passwords as well.15:02
sorenIIRC, that is.15:02

sorenWhoops..15:03
cjwatsonkees: chpasswd -S is still outstanding, as is the default to SHA51215:03
keescjwatson: well, -S was needed because of g-s-t15:04
cjwatson(d-i is actually already fixed for this upstream)15:04
keesthe SHA512 default was only needed because of the lack of PAM integration15:04
cjwatsonindeed, and it's still needed until such time as -S is either dropped or converted to PAM15:04
keesis anything left that reads ENCRYPT_METHOD in the shadow package?15:04
cjwatsonI haven't checked the rest of shadow to see if there's anything left15:04

keesyeah, USE_PAM is in heavy use in the code.15:05

\shguys..is there any documentation how the kernel enumerates e.g. NIC interfaces?15:09
ograisnt that done by udev ?15:09
=== You're now known as ubuntulog
kees\sh: they all start as "eth0", and then udev renumbers them based on /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules15:09
kees(roughly)15:09
pittis/start as eth0/start in random order/15:10
\shkees: yes...that I know..and that's actually a problem...kernel finds e.g. external NICs first, and then the internals..udev enumerates then eth0...ethN which can cause really serious problems...e.g. I don't have the possibility to boot pxe/mount NFS from the external nics...but kernel + udev are telling me, my internal card is eth315:11
kees\sh: yeah, you'll want to adjust /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules if you want to control how they're named.15:12
ograthere is a kernel commandline option for ipconfig to enfoce a NIC being the first one15:12
ograkees, doesnt help with PXE15:12
\shkees: sure...that's what I would do when I'm already have an installed system..but using automation for deploying, that doesn't help15:12
keesogra: PXE is before the kernel though?15:13
\shkees: yes15:13
ograright15:13
\shkees: 1. pxe, 2. kernel booting via tftp, 3. /scripts/live-premount which does IPConfig: and then there is udev telling me your eth0 is not my eth0 and my eth0 is your eth3 ;)15:14
ograi cant remember it from the top of my head, but the guys in #ltsp use it often15:14
kees\sh: what I did for this in the past was to either pre-populate the image with the NIC MAC I knew was in the machine (since I had that already for the PXE configs), or I wrote scripts in the target that checked interfaces for the right DHCP lease.15:14
keesbut, I'd do whatever ogra says since I've got only small experience with this.  :)15:14
cjwatsonkees: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-dev/user-setup/ubuntu/revision/179 - look at the user-setup-apply bit15:15
\shkees: the problem is time ;) kernel boots and then /scripts/live-premount starts and somehow inside this initramfs script there is this IPConfig which takes udevs eth0 which suddenly is not the boot device...15:15
cjwatsonkees: i.e. it uses usermod --password - it can get away with this because d-i controls the entire system and doesn't have to worry about command line visibility in ps15:16

cjwatsonkees: I suspect they might be amenable to restoring -e and making it force non-PAM, judging from bug logs I've seen15:20
cjwatsonbut dunno15:21
keescjwatson: well, I support the PAM-integration -- but -e and -S are needed to "split" the halves of the PAM stack (select hash, store hash)15:22

brycepitti: for -intel, at the moment xorg-edgers and karmic should be identical.15:30
ograhow so ?15:30
brycepitti: for now, testing xorg-edgers is preferred.15:30
pittibryce: good, I'll continue to do so then15:30
brycepitti: probably makes sense to keep testing xorg-edgers up until beta or so15:31
\shogra: forget it....I mis-readed the entry...15:31
\shand the source15:31
ograit doesnt help much with udev shuffling around the names but it helps with enforcing a device name for netbooting15:32

cjwatsonBTW, if anyone desperately wants to debug what's happening to unionfs-fuse on the live CD at the moment, I wouldn't say no ...16:03
* ogra will take a look, but not today16:04
ograstgraber, did you test it with ltsp btw ?16:04
mcasadevallcjwatson, what was the specific issue? (I did some debugging into it when working on UDS< but my setup was non-standard enough that I couldhave been seeing a different issue)16:04
cjwatsonmcasadevall: it falls over half-way through, manifesting as login not being able to start /bin/bash16:05
mvoion_: nice, have you done some benchmarks with zsync and lookinside gzip yet?16:05
mcasadevallcjwatson, right, same issue I saw16:05
cjwatsonit basically manages to get most of the way up, so I think it's one specific fuse call that's hosing it16:05
mvoion_: as in "how much data will it still need to fetch" ?16:05
mcasadevallcjwatson, I traced to getting as far as upstart coming up, it destablizes itself after one of the startup scripts, but I didn't isolate it16:06
ion_mvo: Haven’t got around to that yet.16:07
ion_mvo: But the look-inside-gzip mode will most likely fetch less data even with gzip --rsyncable.16:08
mvoion_: that is my gut-feeling as well, I would love some data on it :)16:08
cjwatsonmcasadevall: I think the problem is with processes running as non-root, but I thought I'd fixed that!16:14
mcasadevallcjwatson, no, the issue happens while root (which I tested being in single-user on the CD< then running scripts by hand)16:15
cjwatsonI'm definitely seeing symptoms that I know I fixed that way16:15
cjwatsonmcasadevall: the first thing that fails for me is klogd, and the failure is right after it drops privileges to the klog user16:15
cjwatsonI believed I had fixed this by using -o default_permissions -o allow_other -o suid16:16
mcasadevallIf the klogd script is removed, do you get a successful startup?16:16
cjwatsonthere are lots of other things broken, I'm not going to waste my time on that kind of check16:17
cjwatsonit's clear that access from other ids is broken (I can reproduce similar things with sudo, for instance) and that's going to break stuff all over the show16:17
cjwatsonI've fixed this before, so I just need to figure out what went wrong with my fix16:17

ogra\sh, we share the same initramfs code for netbooting, so thats surprising16:51

\shogra: this lenny initramfs is using the /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/live* infrastructure on jaunty I didn't see it...but in .../scripts/functions we (ubuntu) have now the configure_networking() bash func which handles the IP/IPOPTS stuff currectly...but the "scripts/live" of debian lenny just did an ipconfig -d ${DEVICE} without checking if there is something in ip/ipopts16:53
ograoh, then its actually changed ... we used to usew the  ipconfig -d ${DEVICE} line too before16:53
ograi guess sid uses configure_networking() too16:54

mcasadevalllamont, its whatever is in karmic: util-linux-2.15.1~rc17:50
mcasadevall^117:50
cjwatsonlamont: I think my original patch to add the udeb was correct, but it looks as if the new file debian/util-linux-udeb.dirs got lost somewhere along the way17:50
cjwatsonlamont: and because util-linux IMO unwisely uses install(1) without a trailing slash on the target directory name, rather than a build failure, this resulted in a busted udeb17:51
mcasadevalllamont, if you could fix it, it should get up 90% of the way of d-i building, and once d-i builds, ia64 alternate and livecds should build.17:51

xenocampanoliSubject:  trying to compile libldap-ruby I get ldap.c:424: error: ‘LDAP_OPT_X_TLS_PROTOCOL’ undeclared (first use in this function).  This is shown as a macro only in my /usr/include/ldap.h.  Another told me it is commented out in his /usr/include/openldap.h, but I do not have one of those.22:12
slangasekxenocampanoli: this is not a help channel; but the libldap-ruby package in Ubuntu appears to be built just fine, perhaps you're using some ldap.h other than the one from Ubuntu?22:14
jelmertedg: hi22:15
tedgjelmer: Hello.22:16
jelmertedg, jam and I managed to fix the bug you were hitting in bzr during UDS22:17
jelmertedg, I've just submitted the fix to PQM22:17
tedgjelmer: Whoo!  Hooo!  Many thanks!22:17
jelmertedg, There was also another issue, caused by an early bzr-svn bug that has been fixed now.22:17
tedgjelmer: So is there a snapshot that I can grab then?  I don't think that bzr-svn is in the bzr nightly PPA, right?22:17
jelmertedg: That bzr-svn bug has been fixed, but your bzr branches on launchpad seem to've been created with an older version of bzr-svn that had that bug so those branches are broken.22:18
jelmertedg: You'll need a nightly version of bzr, and probably to ditch and recreate your existing inkscape branches on Launchpad from svn22:19
tedgjelmer: Ah, okay.  That's fine.  I'll recreate.  Can I merge the old ones in?  Will that create something useful?22:19
xenocampanolislangasek:  No, the libldap-ruby package has a bug (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libldap-ruby/+bug/381791) on Ubuntu Server and I am trying to compile it in a standard environment to get diagnostics for that bug, and it won't for me.  Perhaps I am leaving out a step.22:22
ubottuUbuntu bug 381791 in libldap-ruby "LDAP::SSLConn from ruby fails, probably from not seeing cert" [Undecided,New]22:22
xenocampanoliOh yeah.  That's my bug.  See my name? ;^)22:22
xenocampanolislangasek:  I am using a standard environment.  Is there another place I should seek this help?22:23
jelmertedg: I'm not sure if that would do anything meaningful. If possible, it would be best to just keep the two separate.22:26
jelmertedg, And sorry this took so long.22:26
tedgjelmer: No problem.  Happy that it's fixed.  I've been using SVN...  remember those days all too fondly now :)22:27
slangasekxenocampanoli: ok, I can confirm the build failure in karmic22:32
slangasekxenocampanoli: apparently libldap-ruby assumes LDAP_OPT_X_TLS_PROTOCOL is a constant, not a macro w/ arguments.22:33
slangasekxenocampanoli: so I would say this is an upstream bug in libldap-ruby22:34
prefrontali need -fprofile-correction from gcc 4.4 but i'm using jaunty and its in karmic22:37
xenocampanoliThank you.  I haven't put the compiler in as a bug, only my other problems.  Do you want me to do so?22:38
xenocampanolislangasek:  Thank you.  I haven't put the compiler in as a bug, only my other problems.  Do you want me to do so?22:38
xenocampanolislagasek:  compiler error that is.22:39
slangasekxenocampanoli: filing a bug report would be advisable :)22:39
xenocampanolislangasek.  I'll put a number here when I'm done.22:39
prefrontalinstalling a package like gcc from a newer dist could be problematic. it likely requires libc etc...22:40
prefrontalnot advisable?22:40
prefrontalor are jaunty/karmic still fairly binary compatible22:40
xenocampanolislangasek:  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libldap-ruby/+bug/38337122:44
ubottuUbuntu bug 383371 in libldap-ruby "Compiler error trying to build libldap-ruby from source" [Undecided,New]22:44
xenocampanolislangasek:  Please I am open to suggestions on this bug environment and its standardsd.22:44
xenocampanolislangasek:  I know if you can formally confirm 383371 it will likely expedite it's handling.22:53
slangasekxenocampanoli: realistically, expediting it means finding a developer who uses ruby; it seems this same bug has been open on the Debian package for over two months, and the Debian maintainer hasn't taken any action yet22:56
xenocampanolislangasek:  Well, I may not be competent to debug encryption stuff, but if I am allowed, and with help regarding the architecture, I can probably come up with the solution.  I've written near 100,000  lines of C in my life, though mostly over 10 years ago.22:58
slangasekthis particular build failure could be fixed by commenting out the lines referring to LDAP_OPT_X_TLS_PROTOCOL22:59
xenocampanolislagasek:  Trouble is, I will need to decide the intentions of the developer in charge for this macro.22:59
slangasekI don't know if that's a correct fix22:59
xenocampanolislangasek:  Yes, I will need to study the code more.  How do we discover if the code has been orphaned?  I have an email into the maintainers listed in the README.23:00
slangasekxenocampanoli: hopefully there's also accurate information in debian/copyright that can be used to contact upstream23:01
amitkhmm.. I lost my gdm login screen after an upgrade to karmic on my 32-bit laptop23:01
xenocampanolislangasek:  I don't have an account in the Debian area, only on launchpad.  Perhaps I should do that...?23:01
slangasekxenocampanoli: debian/copyright is the file in the source package.  And the Debian BTS doesn't use accounts, it's email-only23:02
YokoZarJust uploaded the first branding-ubuntu package.  So far all it has is a new gnometris theme23:02
YokoZarhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/branding23:03
slangasekamitk: KMS?23:05
xenocampanolislangasek: Oh, Yes, that's where I got Ian's and Akira's email addresses.  Sorry.  The copyright's in the readme were in fact what I got the emails from.23:05
xenocampanolislangasek:  So, presumably if I come up with a solution, I can post that on the bug and at least it is likely to get used at some point...???23:06
slangasekxenocampanoli: if you find a solution, I suggest you follow https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SponsorshipProcess to get the fix included in Ubuntu23:06
amitkslangasek: default upgrade. Haven't yet enabled KMS.23:06
slangasekamitk: oh.  UXA? :)23:07
xenocampanolislangasek:  Thank you for confirming and all your help.23:07
amitkslangasek: xorg.conf had a 'virtual' line that seemed to be causing the problem23:09
dtchenTheMuso: WRT desktop-karmic-audio-experience: will do23:29
TheMusodtchen: thanks23:29
Riddelljoaopinto: we already have kpackagekit as our package manager in jaunty23:34
Riddellits main limitation is not being able to install java, that's a pain but I can live with that with openjdk23:34
andrehello... iam using ubuntu9.04 with gnome... anyone knows how to change from utf8 to iso8859-15? on console i already have changed. but it seems that nautilus is creating files with UTF8-names23:55
