[00:11] <xivulon> what are the restrictions when selecting a password?
[00:42] <cjwatson> icarus901: the minimum is just url=<blah>; the checksum is a good idea but not a requirement
[00:43] <cjwatson> xivulon: right now, it just has to be at least eight characters long
[06:50] <stony_> ？
[10:42] <CIA-9> oem-config: cjwatson * r669 trunk/ (debian/changelog desktop/oem-config-prepare-gtk.desktop.in):
[10:42] <CIA-9> oem-config: Declare GTK frontend as "NotShowIn=KDE;" rather than
[10:42] <CIA-9> oem-config: "OnlyShowIn=GNOME;XFCE;" (LP: #163518).
[14:19] <davmor2> cjwatson, evand1: I like the text for password creation it's a lot more descriptive :)
[15:07] <cr3> can the live image be used for a server install?
[15:08] <davmor2> cr3: expert mode can do a minimal install
[15:09] <cjwatson> the live image cannot
[15:09] <cjwatson> the DVD can
[15:09] <cjwatson> (or obviously the server CD)
[15:09] <cjwatson> you can't do a minimal installation from the live image; no expert mode is available
[15:10] <davmor2> cjwatson, cr3: yes sorry me going mad.
[15:10] <persia> Well, you *could* use the live image to do a manual install (from debootstrap up) and end up with a server, but that's not recommended, and would involve downloading all the packages.
[15:11] <cjwatson> yes. you're essentially using it as a fat netboot host and doing all the work yourself then.
[15:11] <cjwatson> you'd have to take care of various little bits of customisation that the installer does on top of debootstrap
[16:01] <evand1> So now that we've had ubiquity-preserve-home for a few releases, would it be sane to offer it as a partman-auto choice?
[17:05] <CIA-9> casper: cjwatson * r633 trunk/scripts/casper: typo
[17:38] <CIA-9> ubiquity: cjwatson * r3277 ubiquity/debian/ (changelog rules):
[17:38] <CIA-9> ubiquity: Recommend grub-pc | grub rather than the other way round, since GRUB 2
[17:38] <CIA-9> ubiquity: is now the default.
[17:38] <superm1> cjwatson, doesn't ubiquity need a diff like this for grub2 http://pastebin.com/f144af726
[17:38] <superm1> oh haha.. exactly :)
[17:41] <CIA-9> ubiquity: cjwatson * r3278 ubiquity/debian/changelog: releasing version 1.13.3
[17:42] <cjwatson> superm1: GMTA
[20:25] <CIA-9> usb-creator: rgreening * r113 usb-creator/usbcreator/kde_frontend.py:
[20:25] <CIA-9> usb-creator: Added in gettext as backend uses it and this breaks otherwise
[20:25] <CIA-9> usb-creator: Added some checks for self.backend being defined before referencing it
[20:25] <CIA-9> usb-creator: Added gtk version of setup_sources_treeview and setup_targets_treeview (will need to
[20:25] <CIA-9> usb-creator: figure out what to do with these functions... if anything... they setup callback/triggers
[20:25] <CIA-9> usb-creator: to update the icons, labels, etc... how to do this in Qt?)
[21:50] <CIA-9> usb-creator: rgreening * r114 usb-creator/usbcreator/kde_frontend.py:
[21:50] <CIA-9> usb-creator: Changed from using setText to store the UDI data, and instead use setData, which stores
[21:50] <CIA-9> usb-creator: a QVariant. This leaves the setText open to display somethin g other than the UDI (yay).
[22:46] <joshk> does ubiquity respect preseed/late_command?
[22:46] <joshk> or only ubiquity/success_command?
[22:54] <cjwatson> only the latter, I believe
[23:12] <joshk> cjwatson: okay
[23:26] <joshk> not really an installer question.. but is there a way for a rc.local script to echo stuff to the screen?
[23:26] <joshk> it seems like stdout is redirected into upstart, or something
[23:27] <joshk> would stderr work? hrm.
