slangasekfader, sbeattie: hi16:04
faderheno is not available today so I'll update what I can and see if anyone else wants to add anything :)16:04
faderThe QA specs are proceeding quite well; everything is approved and specs are in progress right now.16:04
fadersbeattie: any news on the apport-adoption spec that should be brought up?16:04
slangasek(hrm, what's the moin magic for linking to blueprints?)16:04
pittiUbuntuSpec:foo16:05
slangasekta16:05
sbeattiefader: not that I'm aware of, but heno was driving that.16:05
faderRight... just wasn't sure if anyone had any additional updates and you seemed like the right guy to ask.16:05
fader(Anything anyone else wants to add or should I move on to certification testing?)16:06
slangasekthat's a non-archive-touching spec, right?  so no need to dwell on it if you guys don't know status16:06
sbeattieslangasek: correct, no changes to the archive for that one.16:06
cr3speaking of blueprints, the live cd testing is currently deployed and in final states of beta: https://blueprints.edge.launchpad.net/certify-web/+spec/karmic-qa-cert-install-from-live-cd-images16:06
fadercr3: This is cool... I've seen that we've been getting live cd results \o/16:07
slangasekexcellent :)16:07
ScottKThe ISO tracker falls under QA, right?16:07
slangasekyes16:07
cr3slangasek: the desktop images for multiple flavours of ubuntu are being tested on a daily basis: ubuntu, mythbuntu, xubuntu, etc.16:08
ScottKUnless debian-cd causes my brain to fall out of my head, I think we'll have at least some basic kubuntu-netbook images for Alpha 3.16:08
ScottKSo it'll need to go on the tracker ....16:08
slangasek[ACTION] slangasek to get kubuntu-netbook added to the ISO tracker16:08
MootBotACTION received:  slangasek to get kubuntu-netbook added to the ISO tracker16:08
slangasekthanks16:08
ScottKThank you.16:08
faderScottK: Do you have specific test cases for it?16:09
faderOr can we use the generic Kubuntu ones?16:09
ScottKfader: It'll start out the same as Kubuntu, except for the install process and we'll evolve from there.16:09
faderScottK: Cool, thanks.16:09
ScottKStart with that.16:09
cr3ScottK: will the kubuntu-netbook images use d-i and/or casper+ubiquity?16:10
ScottKslangasek: Would you please add an action for rgreening to document kubuntu-netbook install process for the test cases?16:10
cr3ScottK: also, will they be usb images or cd imges?16:10
ScottKcr3: It'll be a casper+ubiquity ISO that we intend be installed via USB.16:10
slangasek[ACTION] rgreening to document kubuntu-netbook install process for ISO tracker test cases16:10
MootBotACTION received:  rgreening to document kubuntu-netbook install process for ISO tracker test cases16:10
ScottKslangasek: Thanks.16:10
cr3ScottK: if you could being an actual iso image installable from CD in addition to the USB image, it could be automatically tested16:11
cr3s/if you could being/if it could be/16:11
ScottKcr3: Size will be the only issue.  We'll see about that.16:11
cr3ScottK: DVD is good too16:11
ScottKIt'll fit on a dvd.16:12
cr3ScottK: feel free to keep me in the loop16:12
faderScottK: Size isn't as much of a concern in the automated testing as we just use the ISO image directly rather than burning it to disc16:12
ScottKfader: Should work just fine then.16:12
faderOkay, so on the topic of automated testing...16:13
faderCurrent karmic coverage: http://people.ubuntu.com/~fader/hw-testing/current.html16:13
faderThere was an issue in the lab preventing the CD images from being downloaded.  cr3 has fixed this and we are pulling images now and should be able to test again once they have completed downloading.16:13

fader(This affected only laptop testing, BTW.)16:13
faderBug 384861 is still affecting server testing.  It's in 'fix released' but it doesn't look like it's made it into any ISO images yet.16:13
ubottuLaunchpad bug 384861 in linux "Broadcom NetXtreme II (BCM5708) not detected by installer [karmic]" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/38486116:13
faderWe've also done a large round of 8.04.3 testing: http://people.ubuntu.com/~fader/sru-testing/8.04.3.html16:14
faderThis looked very good -- all 'pass' across the board.16:14
cr3fader: err, the issue is that we only have a T1 in one of the labs which is being overwhelmed now that we're testing desktop images. that's not going to be fixed until mid-july16:14
fadersbeattie informs me that we'll need to do another round of testing as the images from 20090624 didn't have hardy-proposed enabled; this should happen automatically once the new images are on cdimages.u.c16:14
fadercr3: Sorry, I misunderstood.  I thought that the images were not being downloaded for some reason and that you had started the download on Wednesday.  Is the issue that it just takes that long to download them rather than a blockage?16:15
cr3fader: I wouldn't want to give the impression that we have issues within our control that are preventing images from being tested16:15
cr3fader: they've been downloading for the whole week16:15
fadercr3: Okay, I definitely misunderstood then :(16:15
slangasekfader: hmm, let me check the status of 384861; maybe we need a d-i bump yet16:15
slangasekno, that's done16:15
slangasekcr3: in that case, the server ISO testing for certification should surely be given priority?16:16
cr3slangasek: servers and desktops have been tested, only laptops are affected16:16
faderslangasek: When looking at http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-server/daily/20090626.1/karmic-server-amd64.list it looks like we have linux-generic_2.6.30.10.10_amd64.deb but the bug says it's fixed in 2.6.30.10.1116:16
slangasekfader: hrm, it was fixed in the metapackage?16:17
faderslangasek: To be honest I'm not sure... can we have a quick discussion after the end of the meeting to figure out what's up with it/16:18
fader?16:18

faderThat's all I've got for certification16:19
slangasekah, all passes on 8.04.3 - nice!  Is that testing complete?16:20
slangasekor are there more boxes to be tested yet?16:20
faderslangasek: It's complete but sbeattie said that the images did not have hardy-proposed enabled16:21
slangasekright16:21
faderSo if there are new images we will automatically test them16:21
slangasekjust about to ask that16:21
slangasekthere are16:21
faderAll the hardware tests are complete modulo the laptops (that have not gotten the images yet :( )16:21
slangasek20090626 server has -proposed enabled16:21
faderOkay, these should get automatically tested once the images are synced.16:22
faderI will update the sru-testing page with the results once they are in.16:22
slangasekand is syncing of those images blocked on the bandwidth issue?16:22
cr3slangasek: that might be overwritten by the installation process16:22
faderslangasek: It's blocked only for laptops.  Servers and desktops are fine.16:22
slangasekif the desktop ISO testing is causing contention, even just for laptops, then it really needs to be bumped down the list16:23
slangasekcr3: what might be?16:23
cr3slangasek: my framework assumes static pockets16:24
slangasekcr3: if the framework doesn't pull from the -proposed archive included on the CDs, then it's not suitable for point release testing16:25
slangaseklet's move on; cr3: we can discuss this after the meeting?16:26
slangasek[TOPIC] Desktop team16:26
MootBotNew Topic:  Desktop team16:26
slangasekpitti, rickspencer3: hi16:26
cr3slangasek: cdimage testing tests just that, the image. what you are requesting is archive testing which will land during the karmic cycle16:26
pittiAs usual, current status (including RC bugs) is on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/ReleaseStatus16:26
cr3slangasek: sure16:26
pitti== Blueprints ==16:26
pittiThis week we investigated the integration of empathy into main and desktop, which turned out to be much more effort than originally anticipated, so this will land later. Might slip alpha-316:26
pittinew gdm is almost ready to land, just needs two bug fixes; will probably happen next week16:27
pitti== Other status ==16:27
pittiOn the X.org front, things are going rather well. KMS for -intel is now enabled by default, -ati under testing; nouveau is still rather brittle, so it's not yet determined whether it will become the default. Upstream is reasonably responsive to bug reports and providing some patches16:27
pittiWe had a detailled session with the OLS team about which packages they are going to land, how/who to package/MIR, etc.; no blockers here, just an awful lot to do16:27
pittiRC bugs didn't get a lot of attention, most people are working full steam on the more urgent specs (which make good progress) for now16:27
slangasekcr3: no, I'm not requesting  archive testing16:28
slangasek(whee, intel driver freeze)16:28

dendrobates   * Bug:326768: mysqld_safe thinks mysqld has crashed when it hasn't - on target.  Mathiaz is preparing an upload17:00
dendrobates   * Spec:server-karmic-screen-profiles-popup-info - done17:00
dendrobates   * Spec:server-karmic-pristine-daily-virt-builds - on target17:00
slangasekdendrobates: hi17:00
dendrobates   * Spec:server-karmic-update-motd-inotify - deferred - blocked on work keybuk is doing.17:00
dendrobates   * Spec:server-karmic-kvm-qemu-packaging - on target - pending peer review.17:00
dendrobateshi17:00
slangasekdendrobates: what work is it blocked on?  upstart?17:01
Keybukit could be implemented a different way, of ourse17:01
dendrobateskirkland: can you elaborate?17:01
Keybukbut that different way seems rather expensive given Upstart will have the required support for karmic+117:01
slangasekso it's deferred until Leaping Lizard?17:01
kirklandKeybuk: we spoke about this at UDS17:02
kirklandKeybuk: update-motd needs an inotify daemon that can watch a directory17:02
dendrobatesslangasek: that was not my understanding, but this is not an essential feature,.17:02
Keybukkirkland: I know ... ;)17:02
kirklandKeybuk: we have implemented based on such a daemon provided by a package in universe17:02
slangasekdendrobates: indeed, but the 10-minute cronjob is a nuisance for me when on battery :)17:02
kirklandKeybuk: we can use that opportunistically, Suggesting the package, or MIR it17:03
dendrobatesslangasek: agreed17:03
kirklandKeybuk: but rather than MIR that package, I'd rather use Upstart if possible17:03
Keybukkirkland: adding yet-another-daemon to the default install just for one release seems a bit wasteful17:03
pittior perhaps not have the cronjob on desktop installs?17:03
pittiserver installs are less prone to running on battery, and on desktops it's rather uninteresting17:03
Keybukespecially something like an inotify daemon, which is going to end up having tracker-like properties17:03
slangasekwe should probably not have detailed design discussions in-band here17:04
kirklandslangasek: agreed17:04
kirklandslangasek: i have re-targeted that spec at alpha417:04
kirklandslangasek: Keybuk chances upstart might have the feature by alpha4?17:04
slangaseksounds fine for now17:04
Keybukkirkland: zero17:05
Keybukkirkland: unless you mean alpha 4 of karmic+1, in which case moderate ;)17:05
kirklandKeybuk: okay, thanks, i'll proceed with MIR'ing an inotify daemon for now17:05
ScottKslangasek: Could we make an appointment for Monday for executing a clamav + rdepends backport?  I've got Hardy/Intrepid all ready and will have Dapper by then.17:05
pittikirkland: :-(17:05
kirklandKeybuk: and replace the functionality when upstart comes to term17:05
Keybukkirkland: I'd rather we just deferred the spec17:05
Keybukkirkland: an inotify daemon is not a trivial thing to consider adding to all our seeds17:06
pittifor desktops that's overkill17:06
kirklandKeybuk: i'm okay with that;   dendrobates/slangasek?17:06
slangasekScottK: yes, can do17:06
dendrobateskirkland: agreed17:06
ScottKslangasek: Great.  I'll ping you then.  What timezone will you be in?17:06
dendrobateswith pitti, that is.17:06
dendrobatesand keybuk17:06
kirklandslangasek: pitti: like said, we can opportunitistically use an inotify daemon, if installed on the system17:06
slangasekkirkland: deferral is fine, it means I'll be your ally in nagging Keybuk ;)17:07
slangasekScottK: PDT17:07
kirklandwithout depending on it17:07
pittikirkland: ah, I misunderstood you then; right17:07
kirklandfall back to the cronjob17:07
Keybukslangasek: you're the one who said I couldn't put the new Upstart in after beta ;)17:07
kirklandrather, continue using the cronjob, unless someone such as slangasek hates that, in which case he installs the suggested inotify package17:07
slangasekKeybuk: the nagging would only happen for karmic+1, of course. :)17:07
slangasekkirkland: how is installing that package going to make the cronjob disappear?17:08
slangasekI hate the cronjob because it's a cronjob that fires every 10 minutes - making it a no-op cronjob doesn't change the synchronous log writes :)17:08
kirklandslangasek: haven't thought about that yet;  right now, it just additionally uses inotifyd if available17:08
kirklandslangasek: that's a bug in the pam logger IMHO17:08
Keybukkirkland: which daemon are you using?17:09
* kirkland suggests design discussions ---> #ubuntu-devel17:09
kirklandKeybuk: iwatch17:09
kirklandKeybuk: but we've toyed with several17:09
slangasekanything else for server team?17:10
dendrobatesnope17:11
slangasek[TOPIC] MOTU17:11
MootBotNew Topic:  MOTU17:11
slangasekScottK: hello17:11
* ScottK waves.17:11
ScottKNo major MOTU news.17:11
ScottKWe're rolling along wishing there were more people to get stuff done as usual.17:12
ScottKIn Kubuntu news we are working on packaging KDE 4.3 RC 1 right now.17:12
slangasekwho's signed on for motu-release for this cycle?17:13
ScottK4.3.whatever is ready is our target for Karmic17:13
ScottKslangasek: IIRC the team is unchanged from the last cycle.17:13
slangasekok17:13
ScottKI do have a debian-cd branch I'd like feedback on for kubuntu-netbook. lp:~kitterman/+junk/kne-debian-cd17:14
ScottKI gave up on trying to understand debian-cd and went with the cargo cult approach. so it may be completely off base.17:14
ScottKslangasek: At some point we need to discuss post archive-reorg release team structure.17:14
ScottKI think that's about it.17:15
slangasek[ACTION] slangasek, cjwatson? to review lp:~kitterman/+junk/kne-debian-cd17:15
MootBotACTION received:  slangasek, cjwatson? to review lp:~kitterman/+junk/kne-debian-cd17:15
ScottKThanks.17:15
slangaseksounds good then17:15
loolI guess crontab of whatever sets project needs to be changed as well, but looked okay from a quick look17:15
ScottKlool: Thanks.17:16
slangasek[TOPIC] AOB17:17
MootBotNew Topic:  AOB17:17
ScottKslangasek: As far as I understand the process, I think once that's pushed we should be ready to roll iso's for kubuntu-netbook (at least the externally visible bits)17:17
slangasekScottK: should be; I'll have a closer look later today, anyway17:17
slangasekanything else to discuss today?17:17
ScottKThanks.17:17
slangasekI don't have anything to say about ISO sizes today that wouldn't be entirely repeating myself17:18
loolI think I saved some small space by dropping sg3-utils17:18
loolBut that's negligible I guess17:18
loolLooks like we're done!17:19
