jander99so many old bugs.00:48
dtchens/old//00:48
jander99Well yes, so many bugs00:48
yofelso many new bugs without a package...00:49
yofel~2400 ...00:49
jander99I'm trying to work bugs back from 2007.00:49
jander99New / Undecided ~23600 yofel :(00:51
yofeli know :(00:52
yofelanybody an idea what to do with bugs filed against ubuntu that are about including packages on the live-cd ?00:53
jander99are the packages *only* used for the livecd?00:53
yofelwell depends, right now I mean something like bug 400573 which is more a usability issue00:55
ubot4Launchpad bug 400573 in wvdial "[include in live-cd] wvdial (1.60.1+nmu2)" [Wishlist,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/40057300:55
BUGabundoyofel: not sure! you should ask CC00:56
BUGabundoor some Main dev00:56
yofelyou think that's something worth asking in #ubuntu-devel ?00:57
jander99At first glance, I wanna say maybe NetworkManager should be worked on to be better, rather than using yet another program to accomplish the same thing. But that's my opinion.00:57
BUGabundofor a better answer, yeah00:57
BUGabundojander99: in this case, sure00:57
BUGabundoim replying to a more broader case00:58
BUGabundofor this case I guess asac opinion would be enough00:58
jander99bug 122619 is about a package no longer in the latest release of Ubuntu, but also again a version that's reached EOL.  So how do I tackle this?  The package is still valid in supported versions, but the bug is against an older version.01:01
ubot4Launchpad bug 122619 in qtorrent "[apport] qtorrent crashed with AttributeError in __stop()" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/12261901:01
andresmujicawon't fix explaining the reasons01:02
jander99Good enough for me. Thanks01:03
jander99hmm. i can't choose Wont Fix.01:03
yofeljander99: Won't Fix is for Bug Control only01:03
jander99So should I mark incomplete, with the stated reasons?01:04
andresmujicawrite the reason i'll mark it as won't fix01:04
BUGabundojander99: no01:04
jander99Okay. Thanks.01:04
Ampelbeinjander99: i think the report is still valid, looking at the package the code affected has not changed much. and Intrepid is still supported, so why won't fix?01:05
BUGabundoandresmujica: like the new ajax status thingies on LP ?01:05
andresmujicahmm not really01:05
BUGabundo:S01:05
Ampelbein(despite the fact that upstream appears dead and there's no further development going on)01:05
andresmujicafirst time i've used i made a mess01:05
BUGabundoAmpelbein: great thing about bugs: they can always be re-opened01:06
BUGabundo:))01:06
jander99Ampelbein: That's where I'm struggling to figure out where this little bug belongs.  The report is filed against a still-active version of qtorrent, but from an older Distro.  I don't have a copy of Intrepid to test this on.01:06
BUGabundoalso there are sooo many more alternatives, with active development01:06
AmpelbeinBUGabundo: yeah right. so you close all bugs older than 2 months because they can be reopened? (you can use launchpadlib for that).... just kidding ;-)01:07
Ampelbeinjander99: i'd set to incomplete, asking for confirmation and close after ~4 weeks of no answer.01:08
BUGabundoAmpelbein: /me is ashamed to admit he doesn't even close his own bugs after stuff getting fixed01:10
jander99Ampelbein: Done.  I also explained 7.04 is EOL but the package is available in Hardy and Intrepid. If it gets a hit confirming the existence in Hardy or Intrepid we can go from there.01:10
BUGabundobut then again, not many ppl open as many bugs as me :)01:10
Ampelbeinjander99: thanks.01:10
jander99Ampelbein, no problem.  I'm tired of seeing so many bugs that may or may not seem meaningless against the raw number of open bugs.  So I'm trying to start with the oldest untouched bugs and get them someplace.01:12
BUGabundojander99: feel free to close any of my opened bugs pre-jaunty01:13
BUGabundoand even those.....01:13
BUGabundoI'm on karmic so I can't test heh01:14
BUGabundojander99: if you have any questions, ping me, I'm usually around01:14
jander99Well at this point I'm going through "New Undecided" sorted by least recently updated.  So I'm dealing with bugs from 2007.01:14
BUGabundoYoBoY did a great job a few months ago closing over 200 of my bugs01:14
BUGabundojander99: I've been filing bugs since 200601:15
BUGabundoeheh01:15
BUGabundoso you will find bugs from me for sure01:15
jander99I'm still just finding it hard to determine whether a bug is truly valid or not.  I'd rather not invalidate a bug if its of some importance and still exists in the latest stable release or an LTS release.  I'd at least like to bring them back to the attention of someone who could make a more definitive choice than I can.01:16
andresmujicabugabundo: did you get the multiple volume controls ???01:17
BUGabundoandresmujica: yep01:18
BUGabundojander99: just keep in mind most of those are now too old.... users gone, users that can't retest, fixed, etc01:18
BUGabundoa few months ago a triagger touch a bug I filed on 6.10...... yeah right! so now what? kill it01:19

ubot4Launchpad bug 129702 in human-cursors-theme ""Loading" mouse pointer's hotspot is off" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/12970203:53
* micahg is checking...04:01
micahgMT-: no, unofrtunately04:02
MT-what should I have done better?04:03
micahgI believe he was stating that it still exists on the current ubuntu release04:03
micahgYour intent was correct04:03
micahgif the bug was limited to the EOL release it would have been the correct action04:03
MT-oh - i thought that's how he meant it04:04
micahgand you were also correct to quote the CoC even though he was aware of it, he was not atbiding by i04:04
micahg*abiding by it04:04
micahgso, +1 for effort04:04
MT-:)04:04
micahgI'd mark it confirmed and check upstream for a related bug04:05
* micahg is not quite sure where upstream is for this04:05
MT-I tried to reproduce it myself on 9.0404:05
micahgand to save yourself anotehr screaming match04:05
micahgoh?04:05
micahgand it doesn't happen?04:05
MT-no04:05
MT-I'm wondering if him using the prereleased version may have screwed up a config though04:06
micahgthen set back to incomplete and see if the user is running 9.0404:06
micahgpossibly04:06
* micahg doesn't know too much about themes04:06
micahgpossibly video driver related?04:06
micahgare you using the fglrx driver?04:06
MT-I am on my desktop04:07
MT-My laptop is just intel :(04:07
MT-micahg: would lspci be helpful perhaps?04:08
micahglshw -C video will tell you04:08
micahghis original report showed fglrx04:09
MT-neat command :)04:09
MT-micahg: what command shows what driver is being used?04:10
micahgwhat do you mean?04:10
MT-to see if they actually are using fglrx?04:11
micahgin the output of lshw -C video, it shows the driver usually04:11
micahghttp://pastebin.com/f4404f48d04:11
micahgline 11 :)04:12
MT-oh - mine doesn't have that :P04:12
micahgit doesn't have a configuration line?04:12
MT-configuration: latency=004:13
MT-that's the line04:13
micahgah, then are you using hte free intel drivers?04:14
MT-yup04:14
micahgyeah, I think it only displays restricted drivers04:15
micahgbut I"m not sure04:15
MT-oh04:15
micahgIs it only a gnome issue?04:17
micahgor any flavor of ubuntu with the theme?04:17
* micahg can test with fglrx04:18
micahghow do I enable a theme?04:18
MT-you means there's more than just one flavor!? :P - I forget that there's anything other than a cli install sometimes.04:18
* micahg is running Xubuntu04:19
MT-gnome-apearance-properties i believe04:19
* micahg doesn't have that...04:19
* MT- has no idea04:19
* micahg might have a live CD around...04:19
* MT- uses obconfig :P04:20
* micahg will try with a LiveCD in Virtualbox04:20
MT-actually - all I use anymore is vim .conf/opebbox/rc.xml :P04:20
MT-that's what I did - except I installed04:20
micahga VM test might not be valid04:25
micahgit has its own video drivers04:26
MT-that's what I did first - I did try my desktop with the fglrx driver too04:27
MT-micahg: If a bug is confirmed, where do you assign a bug in the mouse?04:29
jander99Hi all.  I'm working on resolving an older bug, number 125609, and the issue is with the source package from the maintainer of that package. How do I deal with this case?04:30
jander99er, bug 12560904:31
ubot4Launchpad bug 125609 in irqbalance "X is required to build irqbalance" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/12560904:31
micahg MT- what do you mean?04:33
micahgjander99: have you seen the reply to that bug?04:34
MT-micahg: I was looking at another bug with the mouse pointer and I confirmed it.04:34
micahgah, ok04:35
micahgMT-: I would ask in #ubuntu-x04:35
jander99micahg: Yes, I've read it.  I can confirm the bug exists as the reporter has stated.  Should I file a bug upstream and just label it confirmed? The upstream is google code, and I'd rather not file the bug myself.  But its not actually a bug in Ubuntu, just the package itself.04:36
MT-ok04:37
micahgjander99: are the build dependencies actually required?04:37
jander99micahg: Makefile for irqbalance calls gccmakedep (which I don't have on my system). I guess I could fire up my VM and see how to get gccmakedep04:38
micahgjander99: you can check on packages.ubuntu.com04:41
micahgMT-: was the theme bug that the arrow and the spinner show?04:42
micahgjander99: that's in xutils-dev04:44
micahgI don't understand why you need to buld xutils-dev to make a package with it04:45
jander99micahg: Thanks, packages.ubuntu.com is being terribly slow for me.  So I think its confirmed for Ubuntu, yet its an issue for the maintainer of the package, not for Ubuntu.04:45
micahg*build04:45
micahgyeah04:45
micahgit seems to be broke04:45
micahgI had it installed04:45
micahgso I checked with dpkg -S executable04:45
micahg<executable?04:45
micahgugh04:46
micahgyou know what I mean04:46
MT-micahg: it was that the pointer moves when going from the waiting to normal pointer04:46
MT-"As this pointer has a throbber superimposed onto a normal arrow"04:47
jander99micahg: Yes, thank you.  I guess I'll mark as confirmed, at least in the way he worded it.  I'm trying to see how far back this particular version goes.  I could direct the reporter to file a bug with the package maintainer. hmm.04:47
micahgjander99: I don't know if it is confirmed04:47
micahgI'd say hop in #ubuntu-x and ask them04:47
micahgMT-: not quite sure what a throbber is04:48
micahgit has the spinner on the arrow04:48
micahgit doesn't move...04:48
micahgat least in the LiveCD04:48
micahgagain, maybe it's an fglrx issue04:48
* micahg would probably need gnome to test and that's not happening :)04:48
MT-I tested in gnome04:49
micahgindeed, but you don't have fglrx04:49
MT-I don't test much on this system - it's pretty trimmed down04:49
MT-I do on my desktop ;)04:49
micahgyou can hop in #ubuntu-x and see if anyone has fglrx and gnome04:49
micahgis that where you tested?04:49
MT-yup04:49
micahg64 bit or 32 but?04:50
micahg*bit04:50
MT-3204:50
micahgok04:50
MT-it's an old old junker04:50
micahgwith what version of Ubuntu, Jaunty?04:50
MT-ya04:50
micahgMT-: actually apport-collect would probably be better04:51
micahgwe need to confirm he is on Jaunty04:52
micahgMT-: have you seen the responses page?04:52
micahgsorry04:52
micahgjust saw your comment on the bug04:52
MT-I wonder if this would be the right package for that mouse bug - xserver-xorg-input-mouse04:53

MT-nothing yet04:54
jander99quiet bunch in there.04:55
micahgwell, it is the weekend04:55
jander99Yeah.04:55
micahgand the people in europe are still sleeping04:55
MT-weekend is the busiest time for me04:55
micahgMT-: I would say it depends if there is already some way for the theme to know if it's right or left handed04:55
micahgif that exists and the theme is choosing to display the same thing, it's a wishlist in the theme04:56
MT-I tried other themes with the same result04:56
micahgotherwise, it would be in the theme and the mouse driver04:56
MT-idk if that changes anything04:56
micahgMT-: same as?04:56
micahgit changes or no?04:56
MT-no change04:56
MT-i suspect it's not just ubuntu though04:57
MT-I don't wanna test either :P04:57
micahgok, I'd say check with ubuntu-x tomorrow to see if that's supported04:57
MT-ok04:57
micahgno point in making lots of noise in the bugs04:58
MT-thanks :)04:58
micahgnp, feel free to come back with more questions04:59
MT-I think bug stuff is done for me tonight - I need to go to work soon. I'm thinking of getting there about 0000 instead of my nromal 020004:59
micahgah, ok04:59
* micahg is just starting for the night :)04:59
jander99micahg, I downloaded the irqbalance package and the Makefile has gccmakedep in it as well.  I think the Ubuntu package is just a debianized version of the vanilla package.04:59
MT-that's why my ssytem was running hot!05:00
micahgthat's usually how it is jander9905:00
MT-I left the vm on05:00
micahgah05:00
micahgjander99: can you make it with just xutils-dev installed?05:00
jander99I'll try that, stepped outside for a moment.  Built a VM today and snapshotted it with a default Jaunty64 install.05:01
jander99Gonna come in handy heh.05:01
jander99micahg: Thanks for your help, getting late here so I'll work on this bug tomorrow.  Hopefully I can get some sort of resolution. :)05:17

bcurtiswxbananeweizen: triaging isn't necessarily about closing bugs.  its about getting them into a state that the developers can work on it.  There are a lot of intermediate things that can stop a bug in this process.  Things like incomplete information, or finding duplicates.  You best first triage experience should be working with another triager to understand the process.  Hands on is the best way in this case.15:53

BUGabundohey micahg18:22
micahghi BUGabundo18:22
jander99micahg: Hi, no need to.  gccmakedep is the same as gcc -M.  I just changed the Makefile so it used gcc instead of gccmakedep and thus ends the dependency of xutils-dev18:23
LimCorebcurtiswx: not yet, because while gathering info to report the bug, I seem to resolve it18:23
micahgjander99: process for patches is here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU#MOTU Processes18:23
micahgthat's not right...18:23
micahghttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/TODO#Patch%20Testing%20and%20Review18:24
micahgthat's better18:24
BUGabundoLimCore: evev if fixed for you, maybe having that info where some other user with the same prob, can find it, would be kewl, right?18:24
micahgjander99: does the programs need xutils though?18:24
micahgwell, doesn't look like it by the dependencies18:25
micahg...18:25
jander99micahg, no, as far as I can tell it only depends on xutils because the Makefile calls a binary in it.18:25
micahgok18:25
micahgI'd say go for it if you can, that wiki page denotes the process18:26
LimCoreBUGabundo: yeap I will probably report the bug,  ONCE I am done fixing and testing it18:28

micahgyou can ping ubuntu-motu as it's their entry18:38
jander99This is my first time writing a patch. So I feel a little lost.  heh18:40
micahgok, I'd say hop in #ubuntu-motu for help, we just get the bug to Triaged, they take it from there18:41
jander99micahg: Ok, thanks.  You guys have been great help since I'm still a newb at this heh18:42
micahgno problem, we love people coming in and helping18:42

andresmujicayeap.. just regenerated the page.. let's take a look19:16
micahgjander99: what do you think the importance should be?19:17
micahg!importance19:17
ubot4You can learn about setting bug importance at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Importance19:17
jander99Considering there is a binary available, and this is a very corner case, I'd say low.19:18
micahgI agree19:18
micahgandresmujica: any way to link google code bugs up top, or does there need to be a project for the package?19:19
andresmujicahmm, i believe a project for the package is needed.. not sure...19:20
micahgjander99: you should probably subscribe to receive updates and update the bug if upstream gets back to you19:20
micahgok19:20
micahgI'm going to mark triaged -> Low as jander99 upstreamed it19:20
jander99micahg: Thanks. :)19:20
micahgnp, thank YOU for doing the work19:20
micahgwere you at this all night?19:21
jander99Little bit last night, little bit today.  Maybe 3 hours total? Alot of that just learning proper methods and such.19:22
micahgah, ok19:22
jander99Procedures on the wiki are a bit...generic. No one's fault as there is a learning curve to all this.19:23
micahgwell, you can propose changes to the wiki19:23
alex-weejMT-: you are unbelievable.19:24
jander99Well unfortunately there aren't really changes to the wiki that need to happen, at least not yet.  Once I get more experience at triage I might see a better way to do things, then make a proposal.19:24

alex-weejmicahg: and karmic19:28
* micahg thought so...19:29
micahgMT-: you cannot assume because the bug is reported against an older release that the user is using the older release19:29
alex-weejMT-: you could do yourself a favour when "triaging" bugs like this and check the upload date of the latest version of the software19:29
hggdher. *should* not assume19:29
micahgalex-weej: is the theme now correctly labeled in the bug?19:29
MT-micahg: I did ask though19:29
micahghggdh: right :)19:30
micahgalex-weej: MT- is new at this, new triagers sometimes get overzealous in their quests, there's no need for hostility in the responses19:31
hggdhalex-weej, I understand you are upset on not really much being done on this bug, but *please* be nice.19:31
alex-weejsorry19:31
hggdhplease keep in mind that most here are volunteers. Being agressive is a most assured way of being left aside19:32
micahgalex-weej: both MT- and I tried to reproduce without success, but that might have been because we were trying with the human theme instead of the dmz theme19:32
alex-weeji am sick of having to "defend" bugs that have no reason to have expired, that's all19:32
MT-micahg: I did try with dmz theme as well, just fyi19:32
hggdhmicahg, I have to get on the road to Austin, will log in later. Can you please keep on with this>19:33
hggdh?19:33
alex-weejit definitely happens with dmz. dmz has a lot of faults, really.19:33
micahgyou shouldn't have to defend, but you can't expect everyone to have the same results you do when testing19:33
andresmujicaalex-weej: if possible for you add an screencast showing the symptom with latest release.19:33
micahgif we can't reproduce, we generally ping to see if it's still relavent19:33

MT-Incomoplete is not a closed status. It's used when more information is needed.19:43
alex-weejMT-: this is one of the better bug reports that hasn't been closed and re-opened every 6 months19:43
alex-weejit's just an in-built reaction now to put it "back" to confirmed19:43
bcurtiswxalex-weej: incomplete means the triager feels theres more information needed...19:43
alex-weejbasically i just don't see how ubuntu is going to get that level of polish if minor bugs like these which are starved of development time just "vanish" and wait to be re-reported19:44
alex-weejthe whole ethos of people assuming old bug reports are invalid is wrong19:44
alex-weejgranted, on this one, it seems people are having difficulty reproducing19:45
alex-weeji will update the description when micahg is finished19:45

micahganyone know how I can tell what theme I'm using in  Xubuntu?20:03
micahgI'm using the Crystal SVG icon set20:04
micahgI think it might be an X bug...20:04
lajjrMine doesn't move the overlay of the animation disappears is all...20:04
alex-weejcursor is independent of icon set afaik20:04

micahgI'll ping them tomorrow20:22
micahgi'll confirm it, because I see the cursor move, but I think the bug is not in the theme20:24
micahgcursor theme is just a set of icons, right?20:25
andresmujicamaybe it's a missing icon between the themes...20:26

TrijntjeHi all. I have a problem with cryptestup. On ubuntu 8.04 i can mount it using 'sudo cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sdf crypti'. On ubuntu 9.04 this gives: Command failed: cannot acces device. Is this a known issue?22:03

jander99Need guidance again. :)  bug 154443, at what point is a bug considered so out of date, and how should it be handled in a case like this?22:40
ubot4Launchpad bug 154443 in restricted-manager "Boot splash screen is garbled at shutdown in Gutsy" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/15444322:40
micahgjander99: ping the user and see if it's an issue with Jaunty CD22:41
micahgjander99: the goal I think is to fix bugs, but also not make hte reporter feel unimportant22:42
jander99micahg: Easy enough.  Keep the status the same or will a change be needed there as well?22:42

TrijntjeHi all. I have a problem with cryptestup. On ubuntu 8.04 i can mount it using 'sudo cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sdf crypti'. On ubuntu 9.04 this gives: Command failed: cannot acces device. I could file a bugreport on this, but it would simply be: it does not work. Not very helpful. Is there a way to get cryptsetup to give a more verbose output?22:43

jander99micahg: I'll keep it next to the Responses bookmark.  Thanks.22:47
micahgnp, keep asking questions :)22:48
micahgTrijntje: I don't know too much about that program22:48
jander99I'm sure I'll have plenty until I get my feet properly wet in the way things go.22:48
micahgTrijntje: you can try to find out in support22:49
micahg#ubuntu22:49
micahgor open the bug and ask how to provide more info22:49
micahgIt's Sunday and most people are here, but not here22:49
Trijntjemicahg: I tried support, but they didn't know. So i thought i'd ask in #bug to see if it is a known issue22:50
micahgah, idk22:50
micahglet's see if someone else can jump in here22:50
Trijntjeyes, or maybe ill try again later this week.22:50
andresmujicatrijntje: does that program need a special lvm crypto module ?  i'm aware of a bug related to it...22:52
Trijntjeanderesmujica: i'm not sure, but lsmod shows dm-crypt is loaded22:53
Trijntjeandresmujica:I'm rather new to all this, so i don't understand all suggestions22:55
* jander99 thinks someone should go push the power button on packages.ubuntu.com 23:03
* BUGabundo kicks jander99 arse to make him jump to england23:06
jander99haha. Quite a jump across the Atlantic.23:06
* BUGabundo kicks jander99 *harder*23:09
jander99another question.  What do I do if a bug is reported against an LTS that still has support, but the package in question is not available in newer releases?23:11
andresmujicajander99:  similar case to yesterday's one... desktop support for LTS has ended (unless is 8.04) and it's mainly security support... it must be a big problem to get solved.. generally you should test against the latest version available... maybe ping the latest uploader if the package has a newer version solving the issue that can go via backports...23:23
andresmujicahad to tell to be honest.    forwarding the bug upstream could help also.  but probably is false to expect getting a fix on something that is not even in newer versions.23:24
jander99andresmujica: Thanks. In this particular case, the package does not even exist in Jaunty.  Can't tell when the package was dropped, since packages.ubuntu.com is still down.23:32
micahgjander99: rmadison or use launchpad.net/ubuntu23:34
