xteejxbug 383768 is this a good idea to force the update?08:31
ubot4Launchpad bug 383768 in mktemp "[karmic] The essential package 'mktemp' is marked for removal." [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/38376808:31
Hobbseeno08:38
xteejxHobbsee, thanks :) Was kinda thinking it was a stupid idea, I assume they'll resolve it?08:39
Hobbseeyes.08:39
Hobbseeand that bug has to be a dupe08:39
Hobbseethe master is pro bably under coreutils08:39
xteejxcool, ps good morning everyone :)08:39
xteejxI tagged it as metabug08:40
savvashm..08:43
savvasI think it is update-manager that must learn to ignore that one08:44
xteejxI did look for dupes but couldnt find any08:44
savvasgreat job! :)08:46
xteejxthanks :D08:46
randomactionthis seems to cause build failures for newly uploaded packages08:46
savvasrandomaction: the chroot problem?08:47
randomactionyes08:47
savvasI've noticed it, but geser at #ubuntu-motu recommended to wait for a while and retry the build08:47
savvas+Conflicts: mktemp08:48
savvas+Replaces: mktemp08:49
savvasI wonder if it should have "Provides: mktemp" ?08:49
gesersavvas: I haven't looked at the specific one chroot problem but most such problems are transient unless they appear in bulk08:51
savvasok :)08:51
xteejxguys, does that mean that the problem will just float past and be fixed one day when people update?08:57
savvasxteejx: it should :)08:59
xteejxsavvas, Ok cool :)08:59
savvasIt's either coreutils fault or update-manager.. or they should remove mktemp's "Essential"09:00
xteejxI didn't expect a stable system hehe, but I hear quite a lot of UI improvements are going into karmic09:00
savvashm.. that last one seems great :P09:00
xteejxno point asking me - I haven't a clue about MOTU lol09:01
mvosavvas: I check it out, I can make u-m ignore mktemps essential09:03
seb128mvo: the issue should be fixed in debian now, I will do an autosync run09:04
savvasmvo: no no, it's fixed in coreutils - dholbach replied :)09:04
dholbachseb128: I think it's synced already, it needs to be built manually though because the chroots are busted09:05
savvasdholbach: wouldn't it be better if mktemp was demoted from "Essential" ? Or that wouldn't make a difference?09:05
seb128dholbach: everything has been synced or just coreutils, ie should I still do a normal daily autosync?09:05
dholbachseb128: I don't know09:06
dholbachsavvas: <wgrant> coreutils contains and now Conflicts with mktemp.09:06
dholbach apt doesn't like removing Essential packages, which mktemp is.09:06
dholbach A fixed coreutils has been uploaded (producing a transitional non-Essential mktemp binary), but it needs to be built manually.09:06
seb128alright09:06
savvasah I get it, mktemp is orphaned09:07
wgrantRight.09:07
wgrantPresumably in a release or two coreutils will drop the mktemp binary, and all will be good.09:08
savvaswell the coreutils workaround ought to work :)09:08
wgrantBut for now we just have to wait. Is anybody but infinity sufficiently empowered to fix this?09:09
xteejxhow soon is "soon to be processed"?09:11
xteejxand how is it going to work the fix, will it just "work" or is there anything extra thats needed to be done?09:12
wgrantThe coreutils/mktemp issue will vanish. Nothing special will need to be done.09:12
xteejxwgrant, just upgrade as normal then? :)09:13
wgrantYes.09:13
xteejxcool09:13
Ekusheyi filed a new bug, can someone take a look at it? it's # 38344409:28

Ekusheybtw it's my first bug report, i hope it looks OK?09:35
wgrantThat's OK.09:36

askand1kklimonda: hi, I can not upgrade to 1.7 from your ppa, only partial upgrade10:04
askand1any idea on why?10:04
askand1kklimonda: ah nevermind, solved it, what did you say was the name of the new debugpackage? :)10:11
siretarthey folks11:32
siretartI'm currently preparing a new upload of vlc and wanted to go through the list of vlc bugs11:32
siretartunfortunately, the bug list is filled up with 'triaged' crasher bugs, which I'd like to exclude somehow11:33
siretartis that possible?11:33
siretartI don't have the time and energy to process all those crasher bugs, but I want to see what 'other' 'regular' bugs have been filed11:33
seb128siretart: not really, you can filter out the triaged bugs11:34
siretartthat list is rather short11:35
siretartI do remember that there are some bugs in 'triaged' status which are fixed in this new version11:35
siretartbut I cannot locate them11:35
seb128no easy way to do what you want no11:37
siretartthis means the buglisting of vlc is useless to me as I cannot handle it11:37
* Hobbsee wonders if bughelper will help with that11:38
seb128siretart: the issue is just the number of bugs?11:38
siretartmore my inability to sort, filter and handle the large amount of bugs11:39
seb128you are not really trying apparently11:39
seb128you just focus on one thing you can't do11:39
siretarthm. probably11:39
seb128all the crash bug are importance medium11:39
siretartI'm currently checking the bugs wich are 'fix committed'11:40
seb128so you can review everything which is not medium for example11:40
siretartthere are 4 bugs11:40
siretartokay, I'll try that next11:40
seb128"show bugs that are resolved upstream" lists 17 bugs11:41
seb128you might want to review that list too11:41
siretartthree triaged bugs with importance not medium.. :/11:42
seb128nobody is looking at vlc bugs11:42
siretart:/, because the bug I expected is not there. but still a few more bugs11:42
siretartyes, thats unfortunate11:42
seb128if you do a new version upload you can probably close quite some of those bugs which have an upstream task closed11:43
siretartokay, will check them11:44
siretartokay, so the idea is to filter for bugs that need upstreaming, then upstream them in batch, and on new upstream version check what bugs can be closed, right?11:51
seb128siretart: yes11:58
siretartokay, I've now done so12:12
siretartunfortunately, the buildds are broken ATM, so I cannot testbuild12:12

dholbachbasically it's there to organise work between groups of developers16:32

anderskdtchen: it fixes an OpenAFS kernel crash with kernel >= 2.6.27, (Debian bug #528785), so it is certainly important to OpenAFS users, but I won't continue to nitpick.20:55
ubot4Debian bug 528785 in openafs-modules-source "openafs-modules-source: Random kernel crashes when accessing AFS" [Important,Fixed] http://bugs.debian.org/52878520:55
dtchenandersk: right, that much is understood, but sync requests generally are wishlist20:58
dtchenandersk: effectively, however, importance is largely ignored when overriding deltas20:58
anderskOkay.  I didn't see that documented anywhere (e.g. <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SyncRequestProcess> doesn't mention it; maybe it should).21:00
bcurtiswxok, so since i am still not used to the apport-collect, it just collects the basic info from the persons computer for the bug right. bug #384060 im working with, and i can not reproduce the issue22:07

bcurtiswxlol22:13
bcurtiswxbdmurray: in the greasemonkey script for user responses.. with the "vague" response, i find myself having to ask for package and ubuntu versions an awful lot.  do you think you could add those to the responses in a future release?22:14
bdmurraybcurtiswx: They way I see it vague should only be used for the lowest quality bugs.  I'd generally try to use "Collect It" as much as possible.22:17
bcurtiswxbdmurray: ok, thx22:17
bdmurrayDoes that make sense?22:17
bcurtiswxyeah, does collect work with hardy/intrepid/jaunty/karmic?22:18
bdmurrayNo, no, yes, yes! ;-)22:18
bcurtiswxso, for the no,no vague a better response?22:19
bdmurrayWell you said you have to ask for the ubuntu version a lot so I'm not sure how'd you know if it was Hardy or Intrepid, but I could do that.22:22
BUGabundobcurtiswx: to answer you Q: gnome-ppp is not asking me to be root22:23
bcurtiswxBUGabundo: thats what i had happen too, is it supposed to ask for root permissions?22:24

BUGabundoI can operate *over* to original Link, so it can run on userland22:28
BUGabundobcurtiswx: ask asac22:28
bcurtiswxasac: so you don't have to scroll up, should gnome-ppp ask for a sudo password when called from a user level by default ?22:29
bcurtiswxBUGabundo: so the user is experiencing a bug, as we have verified that it works ....AFAIK as designed22:31
BUGabundobcurtiswx: better ping asac on #ubuntu-mozillateam. he is not so much active here22:31

BUGabundome too22:33
bcurtiswxi did forget to ask if hes fully updated.. but the apport collect will tell us right away if anythings not updated22:33
BUGabundobut you never know what the user actually did on the other side22:33
BUGabundoor even if he can reproduce it for sure22:33
BUGabundoor its just ear say22:33
BUGabundobcurtiswx: ask him if it is reproduclbe22:33
bcurtiswxBUGabundo: k22:34
plarsWould steps to reproduce + a legible photo of the panic and most of the stacktrace generally be considered sufficient for confirmed on a kernel bug? I know that text output of the full stacktrace would be preferable but I don't think he's been able to get that from his netbook22:34
