shtylmanhow to I inrement the changelog to an UNRELASED state?03:34
shtylman*increment03:34
StevenKshtylman: You run 'dch -i'03:35
shtylmanbut that makes the version something that seems wrong03:36
shtylman1.99.13ubuntu103:36
shtylmanand it doesn't put UNRELEASED anywhere03:36
shtylmanas I have seen in the past03:36
StevenKThere's an option for that, or an environment variable. I'm digging.03:37
* shtylman also digs03:37
shtylmanhttp://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-installer/ubiquity/trunk/revision/341003:39
shtylmanI need to make it 1.99.14 UNRELEASED03:39
shtylmanI can probly just change it in the file03:39
shtylmanbut would like to learn the command line params03:39
shtylman-D UNRELEASED does the latter part03:40
shtylmangot it03:40
shtylmanStevenK: dch -v 1.99.14 -D UNRELEASED03:40
StevenKThat would do it by hand, as it were03:40
shtylmanthat at least did the trick...no auto increment on version though03:40
shtylmanright03:40
StevenKI get UNRELEASED when I run dch -i, but a ubuntu1 tacked on, which I fix by hand03:41
shtylmangotcha03:41
CIA-33ubiquity: shtylman * r3411 trunk/ (2 files in 2 dirs):03:43
CIA-33ubiquity: Fix for (LP: #419142), could not reproduce so just moved the size03:43
CIA-33ubiquity: display to the same line as % display03:43
davmor2xivulon: Morning08:51
ograhey09:18
ograhow is the timing of the new slideshow made up ?09:18
ograi just tested ubiquity for the first time with it on armel ... while the progress bar is only at 33% the slideshow is finished09:19
ograis there a way to either run ubiquity without it (it seems to slow down everything) or adjust the time between the slide changes to something longer ?09:20
davmor2ogra: bank holiday in the uk where evand and cjwatson are based please try again tomorrow :)09:22
ograoh, thanks i didnt know09:23
davmor2I think it is actually evand that is dealing with it :)09:23
ograok09:23
davmor2np's09:23
ograwho is responsible for the artwork ?09:23
ograseems the wallpaper is hardcoded to 32bit while the framebuffer on the armel device i install on does 16bit ...09:24
davmor2ogra: I think it was just pulled in from other sources but I could be wrong you would need to speak to evand again on that :)09:24
ograthat results in ugly stairstepping09:24
ograah, k, i'll wait until tomorrow then09:24
davmor2:(09:25
davmor2Yay wubi seems to be starting up in linux mode now :)  now to see if it will install :)11:21
davmor2Meh wubi is failing because ubiquity is crashing but it looks like the grub2 issue got resolved :)14:38
CIA-33ubiquity: superm1 * r3412 ubiquity/ (debian/changelog ubiquity/frontend/gtk_ui.py):16:04
CIA-33ubiquity: Look for language during the progress loop even if no slides are16:04
CIA-33ubiquity: available as the error message is dependent upon it.16:04
superm1eh that's affecting mythbuntu dailies since there are no slides (and probably xubuntu if you dont have slides cody-somerville).  i think i'll do an upload so we can have a functional daily16:14
* cody-somerville nods.16:15
yann|workI just stumbled on http://bugs.debian.org/480533 with a self-customized intrepid install cd (alternate)16:21
yann|workI'm not sure what triggers it, since I did not get it before16:21
CIA-33ubiquity: superm1 * r3413 ubiquity/debian/changelog: release 1.99.14 into karmic16:27
yann|workyep17:01
yann|work(oops, EWRONGCHAN)17:01
yann|workso, about #480533 - I was wondering if there was any way to work around it, or if it required to backport the fix to intrepid and regenerate a new image17:03
kirkland`cjwatson: fyi ... booting-degraded-raid has regressed in karmic;  looks like grub2 needs to be taught to install the bootloader on each disk in an array that provides /boot17:21
=== robbiew is now known as robbiew-afk
NCommanderDoes ubiquity properly respect partman-auto's recipes?18:58
=== kirkland` is now known as kirkland
=== robbiew-afk is now known as robbiew
CIA-33ubiquity: mterry * r3360 plugins/ (219 files in 15 dirs): merge from trunk21:04
cr3how can I preseed the installation type?22:12
cjwatsonkirkland: ok - I'm guessing it's quite different for grub2 though22:36
kirklandcjwatson: i haven't looked at grub2 at all22:36
cjwatsonNCommander: should do22:36
cjwatsonkirkland: please don't hack around it in grub-installer - I'd like to see if we can get the installation process sorted out properly upstream22:37
kirklandcjwatson: in the old grub-install, i basically looked at the mountpoint serving /boot, and if it was on a raid device, it looped over each device in the md22:37
cjwatsonyes, I know22:37
cjwatsonread that code more times than I care to count ;)22:38
kirklandcjwatson: heh, yeah, sorry :-/22:38
cr3what's the difference between the string and text type in .templates? I'm trying to provide a value to ubiquity/install/services22:51
cjwatsoncr3: installation type> what do you mean?22:52
cjwatsoncr3: string/text> it makes no difference for preseeding - but string templates have a value, text templates don't (or at any rate aren't specced to do so, although I'm sure you could set a value for a question bound to a text template and have it basically work in practice)22:53
cjwatsona text template just describes a dialog that displays some text22:53
cr3cjwatson: I figured out the preseed value for the installation type: ubiquity mythbuntu/install_type string Master Backend/Frontend22:55
cr3cjwatson: sorry, need to jet, but thanks for the info about string vs text22:56
davmor2cjwatson: is preseed the better thing to learn over ks?  Only I got the official ubuntu server book and ks looks much easier to pick up23:06
cjwatsonthere is no "better"23:07
cjwatsonwe support both; kickstart is easier to get started with, preseeding is more flexible23:07
cjwatsonyou can mix and match using the 'preseed' command extension to Ubuntu's kickstart implementation23:07
davmor2cjwatson: yes that pretty much confirms what was said in the book.  So thanks for the confirmation I will look at it some more and have a play :)23:12
CIA-33installation-guide: cjwatson * r462 ubuntu/ (3 files in 3 dirs):23:13
CIA-33installation-guide: Remove link to kerneltraffic.org since it no longer contains a23:13
CIA-33installation-guide: linux kernel information (LP: #415108)23:13
davmor2cjwatson: is evand back tomorrow?23:14
=== robbiew is now known as robbiew_
NCommandercjwatson, excellent, I have a set of partman-auto changes for dove whenver you get a chance23:21
cjwatsondavmor2: I don't think so23:23
cjwatsonNCommander: sure23:23
davmor2cjwatson: bugger there are a couple of wubi/ubiquity related issues23:24
