| rockfx01 | quick question - i'm new to triaging ubuntu bugs | 03:04 |
|---|---|---|
| rockfx01 | if a bug is fixed upstream, what should the status be updated to? | 03:05 |
| rockfx01 | ubuntu bug #326896 | 03:05 |
| ubot4 | Ubuntu bug 326896 in linux "no sound with hp dv7-1083eo" [Undecided,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/326896 | 03:05 |
| JontheEchidna | rockfx01: fix committed | 03:09 |
| rockfx01 | do i need to link to the upstream bug also? | 03:12 |
| rockfx01 | (if i can find it) | 03:12 |
| dholbach | good morning | 07:10 |
| maxb | I do not think that a bug fixed upstream implies "Fix Committed" | 09:49 |
| wolfger | No? If it is fixed upstream, it will eventually find it's way into Ubuntu. That sounds like it's been committed to me... | 09:52 |
| Hobbsee | that was always the launchpad definition of fix committed - "a fix exists. somewhere" | 09:53 |
| Hobbsee | or similar | 09:53 |
| jpds | maxb: I do. | 09:53 |
| maxb | There was a debate on the bugsquad ML about this. It was inconclusive | 09:54 |
| maxb | However I take https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Status as the master reference and it says "Fix Committed" on an Ubuntu task is not appropriate here | 09:55 |
| maxb | Fix Committed: | 09:55 |
| maxb | # For a bug task about an upstream project: the fix is in CVS/SVN/bzr or committed to some place | 09:55 |
| maxb | # For an Ubuntu package: the changes are pending and to be uploaded soon (it's what PENDINGUPLOAD was in Bugzilla) | 09:55 |
| maxb | # | 09:55 |
| jpds | It's the first point?# | 09:56 |
| maxb | No, because we're talking about an Ubuntu bugtask here | 09:56 |
| seb128 | maxb: ubuntu-desktop uses fix commited when the fix is commited to the GNOME git | 10:23 |
| james_w | thekorn: you rock! | 10:47 |
| thekorn | james_w, :) | 10:47 |
| james_w | it's fixed the interleaving issues | 10:48 |
| james_w | there's still one issue though | 10:48 |
| james_w | when I get the callback that the command has finished I need to read to EOF on the file descriptors | 10:48 |
| james_w | otherwise there is a race | 10:49 |
| james_w | any bright ideas? | 10:49 |
| thekorn | james_w, you mean if the command you are watching finished? | 10:52 |
| james_w | yeah | 10:52 |
| james_w | I use a gobject.child_watch_add to get a callback when that happens | 10:53 |
| james_w | which signals to the calling process | 10:53 |
| james_w | however, I want to ensure that all output has been signalled before that | 10:53 |
| james_w | or perhaps that's not possible, so I would need to a way to signal when EOF was hit | 10:53 |
| thekorn | there is a gobject.IO_HUP condition | 10:54 |
| thekorn | Hung up (the connection has been broken, usually for pipes and sockets). | 10:54 |
| thekorn | which should be the case when a command has finished | 10:55 |
| james_w | there still seems to be a race, where the IO_HUP won't be called if the child dies | 11:19 |
| james_w | reading from the fd when the child dies seems to do the trick, but I worry that as it's still non-blocking it won't always work | 11:19 |
| maxb | seb128: That probably ought to be documented on the bugsquad key to statuses then | 11:20 |
| seb128 | maxb: that's not really official just how we tend to use it and busquad disagree with it I think | 11:26 |
| maxb | I assume it's an artifact of gnome and ubuntu being somewhat more coupled than other upstreams | 11:29 |
| thekorn | james_w, sorry, why won't IO_HUP be called when the child dies, | 11:45 |
| thekorn | or am I missing some thing | 11:45 |
| james_w | I've no idea | 11:45 |
| james_w | but it isn't :-) | 11:45 |
| thekorn | james_w, for me IO_HUP always works, even if I kill the child: http://paste.ubuntu.com/191567/ | 11:55 |
| === GatoLoko is now known as GatoLoko^ | ||
| james_w | thanks thekorn, it works now | 12:11 |
| thekorn | cool | 12:11 |
| james_w | I've no idea what I was doing wrong, I tried it a few times | 12:11 |
| thekorn | james_w, out of interest, is it top secret code, or public somewhere? | 12:14 |
| james_w | neither :-) | 12:14 |
| thekorn | ok :) | 12:15 |
| james_w | hmm, just got a failure | 12:15 |
| james_w | it seems the cb for IO_HUP sometimes gets interrupted | 12:20 |
| thekorn | james_w, what do you mean by interrupted, for both IOCHannels or only for one? | 12:24 |
| james_w | I added a write call in that part of the handler and sometimes get: | 12:24 |
| james_w | Traceback (most recent call last): | 12:24 |
| james_w | File "/home/jw2328/devel/pkghelper/dbus/backend.py", line 89, in _stdout_cb | 12:24 |
| james_w | sys.stderr.write("out FINI\n") | 12:24 |
| james_w | IOError: [Errno 4] Interrupted system call | 12:24 |
| james_w | where the other works fine in the same run | 12:24 |
| james_w | obviously the exception prevents signalling the content in that case | 12:25 |
| james_w | but I'm not sure what happens when the write isn't there | 12:25 |
| james_w | I get occasional failures, so I added the writes to get a trace of what is happening | 12:25 |
| thekorn | hmm, can't guess what's going wrong there, maybe some kind of threading related issues | 12:43 |

| james_w | can apport be used without a GUI? | 14:12 |
| seb128 | james_w: apport-cli? | 14:13 |
| james_w | so an admin would watch for entries in /var/crash and then use apport-cli to report them? | 14:14 |
| seb128 | james_w: correct | 14:14 |
| james_w | how does it get around not being able to open a webbrowser? | 14:15 |
| seb128 | good question for pitti I don't know, maybe it used w3m or something ;-) | 14:16 |

| XCP2 | it's weird. I've been running 8.10 for quite a while now, very satisfied with it. (It's been my first try at Linux after Windows). then I updated to 9.04. First,the official ATI driver got replaced by one that's shipped with Ubuntu, which had a bug in it (already multiple bug reports on launchpad for that one). however, this is still not fixed. So I uninstalled the driver completely. And a few days later this problem started. | 18:50 |

| Adri2000 | bdmurray: as you're (afaik) the ubuntu bug master paid by canonical, and admin of the sru verification team, can you do something for bug #328874 ? it's a bug in a main package (samba) in an lts release (hardy) that has been waiting for an sru verification for months | 21:12 |
| ubot4 | Launchpad bug 328874 in samba "getent group crashes winbindd on domain controller" [Medium,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/328874 | 21:12 |
| bdmurray | Adri2000: It would help if the bug report had a test case as I'm not certain (nor probably are other SRU Verification team members) how to setup the particular scenario | 21:15 |
| maxb | I happened to have dmsetup/lvm2 installed because I was reading the documentation - I wasn't using it at all - but recent Karmic changes broke a couple of different things which I fixed by purging all dm/lvm packages | 21:20 |
| maxb | Can anyone suggest how best I can usefully file a bug, since I don't really know dm well, nor which package specifically is at fault | 21:21 |
| james_w | thekorn: still around by any chance? | 21:24 |
| james_w | http://paste.ubuntu.com/191893/ | 21:24 |
| james_w | this shows the problem that I am having | 21:24 |
| james_w | if you run it in a loop you will see that it will eventually fail, as the child exits before one of the HUPs | 21:25 |
| james_w | so, some synchronisation would be needed | 21:25 |
| james_w | if you comment out the Event lines then you will see what I attempted to do | 21:26 |
| james_w | however, run in a loop this will eventually hang | 21:26 |
| james_w | because it never sets the event for one of the fds | 21:27 |
| james_w | I can only presume this is because the SIGCHILD is received at a bad moment, and so the event is never set, but the callback isn't called again | 21:27 |
| Adri2000 | bdmurray: the environment where I encountered this bug had two domains (ubuntu/samba/openldap and windows nt4) with interdomain trust relationships. I don't known if it's possible to reproduce in a less complex environment | 21:39 |
| Adri2000 | bdmurray: given the size of the patch (one line, s/i/num_mapped)/), upstream support to the change, and time in hardy-proposed (since march), what do you think of making an exception to the rule and pushing the package to -updates anyway? | 21:44 |
| bdmurray | Adri2000: It sounds reasonable to me but I'll talk to the archive admins. | 21:45 |
| Adri2000 | (I mean, in -proposed since march and no negative feedback) | 21:45 |
| Adri2000 | ok, thanks | 21:45 |
| sbeattie | Adri2000: were you able test it, and confirm that it fixes the issue? | 21:46 |

| thekorn | let's see | 22:23 |
| thekorn | james_w, indeed, it hangs randomly | 22:26 |
| thekorn | james_w, found the problem: it hangs when there are still event pending in the MainContext when fini_callback is called | 22:31 |
| thekorn | so all you have to do is to process all pending event, which should be two lines of code, let's see | 22:31 |
| thekorn | james_w, http://paste.ubuntu.com/191947/ | 22:35 |
