| soren | Keybuk: Does your closing bug #372864 as fFix released mean that you added a getty for hvc0? | 00:11 |

| ubottu | Launchpad bug 372864 in upstart "conf: Put a getty on hvc0" [Wishlist,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/372864 | 00:12 |
| Keybuk | no, it means the upstart task is closed | 00:13 |
| soren | But.. | 00:13 |
| soren | upstart also provides /etc/init/tty | 00:13 |
| soren | *.init? | 00:13 |
| Keybuk | I don't think upstart should provide a job for everything anyone can think of | 00:14 |
| Keybuk | if you want an hvc0 tty job, it should go in something else | 00:14 |
| soren | Um... I don't really see why, really. | 00:14 |
| cjwatson | d-i creates an hvc0 job if you're installing on that type of console (FWIW) | 00:15 |
| soren | I thought it was quite elegant that it could be shipped alongside the regular tty? things so that when run in an environment that has hvc0, it woudl dld Just Work. | 00:15 |
| === lamont` is now known as lamont | ||
| Keybuk | because otherwise we end up shipping a job file for every single user's random wishlist | 00:15 |
| soren | cjwatson: Oh, really? | 00:15 |
| slangasek | Keybuk: hey, since you're around - how can I get an interactive shell out of an upstart job at boot time for debugging? I'm sure I saw you telling people how to do this before in connection with mountall, but I can't figure it out now | 00:15 |

| slangasek | Keybuk: thanks! | 00:16 |
| cjwatson | soren: BTW I'm *so close* to getting vmbuilder working with grub2 ... | 00:16 |
| soren | cjwatson: Oh, your grub2 branch doesn't work? | 00:16 |
| cjwatson | that was a chroot-grub branch | 00:17 |
| cjwatson | it copes with grub2 in the host, but still installs grub in the guest. That much is fine | 00:17 |
| cjwatson | now I'm working on grub2 in the guest too | 00:17 |
| soren | cjwatson: Ah, ok. I didn't look at it yet, I just saw it trickle in. | 00:17 |
| cjwatson | chroot-grub is still worth merging, I think (indeed, I'm basing this grub2 branch on it) | 00:18 |
| === dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk | ||
| soren | Keybuk: I really think shipping the hvc0 job by default is sensible, and I think your argument about "every user's random wishlist" is needlessly antagonistic. I'm waaaay too tired to argue about it now, though. Tomorrow, perhaps? | 00:21 |
| soren | cjwatson: Sure, sure, I'll look at it shortly. Tomorrow, hopefully. | 00:21 |
| * cjwatson nods | 00:21 | |
| === dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates | ||
| Keybuk | soren: it sounds like this is already solved | 00:24 |
| Keybuk | the installer creates that file | 00:24 |
| soren | Keybuk: If one uses the installer, yes. | 00:25 |
| cjwatson | I suspect soren is using vmbuilder or similar, which doesn't use installer code and would require reimplementation of the same ... | 00:25 |
| soren | Well, there's that, but also upgrades. | 00:26 |
| soren | Or virtual machines converted from physical ones. | 00:26 |
| soren | I really don't think it belongs in the installer now that we can actually trigger on the availability of the device in the upstart job itself. | 00:27 |
| slangasek | pitti, kenvandine: do you know whether gnome-power-manager does the equivalent of 'pm-powersave' at startup? | 00:27 |
| Keybuk | soren: I'm not saying you can't do this in an upstart job | 00:27 |
| Keybuk | I'm just saying the upstart package is the wrong place for it | 00:28 |
| Keybuk | just like we don't ship /etc/init/dbus.conf in the upstart package | 00:28 |
| soren | Keybuk: I realise. | 00:28 |
| soren | Keybuk: And I disagree. | 00:28 |
| ion | How about a xen-guest-stuff package that is strongly recommended to be installed on guests? | 00:28 |
| ion | update-manager could even install that when it notices it’s being run within a guest. | 00:29 |
| soren | I think that is silly. | 00:29 |
| soren | None of my VM's run update-manager (they're server VM's). | 00:29 |
| soren | ..and so far, we've managed just fine without such a package. | 00:30 |
| ion | % dpkg -S =do-release-upgrade | 00:30 |
| ion | update-manager-core: /usr/bin/do-release-upgrade | 00:30 |
| ion | That’s on a server. | 00:30 |
| soren | You hardly run do-release-upgrade regularly. | 00:30 |
| ion | Well, as regularly as you upgrade to a new release. :-P | 00:30 |
| soren | It's for doing full distro upgrades. | 00:31 |
| soren | That hardly counts as "when it notices it’s being run within a guest" | 00:31 |
| ion | When do-release-upgrade notices it’s being run within a guest | 00:31 |
| * soren sighs | 00:31 | |
| Keybuk | soren: worth pointing out, I guess, that I plan to remove the tty* jobs from upstart too | 00:33 |
| Keybuk | they were only there because they came from sysvinit via inittab | 00:33 |
| soren | Keybuk: See, that's a good argument. | 00:34 |
| soren | Keybuk: Where would they go? | 00:34 |
| Keybuk | soren: into the package that ships getty | 00:34 |
| Keybuk | and it'll be just getty.conf | 00:34 |
| soren | Keybuk: Ok. | 00:34 |
| Keybuk | there's no reason for having the separate files at the moment | 00:35 |
| soren | I'm not insisting on putting hvc0 in the upstart package. I just think it belongs where the tty? jobs are, and that's been upstart for the last couple of years. | 00:35 |
| Keybuk | I don't think I agree with that | 00:36 |
| Keybuk | because I still don't think every single person wants getty trying to run on that device | 00:36 |
| soren | ?!? | 00:36 |
| soren | Why on earth not? | 00:36 |
| soren | That's what it's for? | 00:36 |
| soren | Well, that or a root prompt or something. | 00:36 |
| soren | ...but I didn't think that was really what was being discussed. | 00:37 |
| Keybuk | that's my point - I've seen a lot of argument that the console of a virtual machine should not be getty but sulogin directly | 00:37 |
| soren | That may be perfectly reasonable. | 00:37 |
| Keybuk | and I wouldn't want to ship upstart upstream with a fixed configuration that's not what everyone wants | 00:37 |
| Keybuk | RH have that neat /etc/consoles solution | 00:40 |
| Keybuk | start on tty-device-added | 00:40 |
| Keybuk | stop on tty-device-removed KERNEL=$KERNEL | 00:40 |
| Keybuk | instance $TTY | 00:40 |
| Keybuk | pre-start exec grep -w $TTY /etc/consoles | 00:40 |
| Keybuk | exec /sbin/getty $TTY 38400 | 00:40 |
| Keybuk | ;-) | 00:40 |
| soren | Sorry, I'm having trouble following this discussion. I'm not sure whether we're discussing shipping an hvc0 job at all, shipping it in a binary package built by the upstart source package in Ubuntu, shipping it in the upstart upstream tarball, whether it will run a getty or sulogin, or perhaps something entirely different. I think I'm going to give up for today and pick it up again tomorrow :) | 00:42 |

| mbiebl | slangasek: dk-power calls pm-powersave | 01:21 |
| mbiebl | and it's tied to the battery state | 01:22 |
| === yofel_ is now known as yofel | ||
| slangasek | mbiebl: ok; part of my problem figuring this out is that devkit-power is mispackaged, leading to gnome-power-manager being statically linked against libdevkit-power-gobject | 01:45 |
| slangasek | mbiebl: so will dk-power get called on gpm startup, or only on battery state chage? | 01:46 |
| slangasek | change | 01:46 |
| mbiebl | dk-power will be dbus autostarted I guess by gdm's gpm instance | 01:48 |
| mbiebl | and whenever the battery state changes, dk-power will call pm-powersave true|false | 01:48 |
| arand | What is it that keeps changelogs lagging so much in publication? Why would they be anything but simultaneous to package publication? | 01:48 |
| mbiebl | afaik it's not g-p-m that triggers the pm-powersave call | 01:49 |
| mbiebl | slangasek: btw, what's the mispackaging in dk-power? | 01:49 |
| mbiebl | I don't see g-p-m being statically linked against libdevkit-power-gobject (at least on sid) | 01:50 |
| slangasek | mbiebl: -dev package has no dep on the shared lib package | 01:50 |
| mbiebl | slangasek: should have been fixed in 010-2 | 01:51 |
| slangasek | mbiebl: so there's no guarantee that devkit-power will call pm-powersave on startup, to set an initial configuration? | 01:52 |
| slangasek | (I'm asking because I want to remove some more redundancy out of acpi-support) | 01:52 |
| mbiebl | to answer that definitely, I'd have to check the dk-power code | 01:52 |
| slangasek | mbiebl: 010-2> well, Ubuntu has 010+git20090913-0ubuntu1; I guess it jumped versions before 010-2 was out, so Ubuntu doesn't have the merge | 01:53 |
| mbiebl | pitti told me that he had merged that | 01:53 |
| slangasek | well, he hasn't :-) | 01:53 |
| mbiebl | next upload will be fixed then | 01:54 |
| slangasek | I'm fixing it in Ubuntu right now | 01:54 |
| mbiebl | slangasek: just checked | 01:56 |
| slangasek | mbiebl: it's called from dkp_daemon_startup, so I guess we're good :) | 01:56 |

| dtchen | ScottK: yes, i'm processing backscroll FIFO | 03:35 |

| pitti | slangasek: g-p-m> pm-powersave support was hacked into dk-power some months ago, so it's supposed to; it doesn't work any more? | 07:41 |
| slangasek | pitti: mbiebl_ has confirmed that it's there - I was asking the question because I wanted to be sure some broken code in acpi-support was truly redundant before hacking it out | 07:42 |
| pitti | ah, good; I read the rest of the scrollback | 07:42 |
| free | pitti: so should I include a SRU-compiant description in each bug involved in the SRU? (with rational, impact, etc.) | 07:43 |
| pitti | slangasek: so, shall I merge and fix the broken lib dep? | 07:43 |
| pitti | slangasek: dk-p 011 was supposed to be released yesterday, so I'd just update to the final version (just three changes compared to our git snapshot), and sync to sid | 07:43 |
| pitti | free: right, but please be very picky; this is intrepid, thus neither the current stable nor current LTS; it should get as few changes as possible | 07:44 |
| slangasek | pitti: well, I've uploaded devkit-power to fix it - if you have another reason to merge, go ahead, as long as you don't drop that fix :) | 07:44 |
| pitti | slangasek: no, I fixed that in Debian's git already | 07:44 |
| pitti | thanks | 07:45 |
| free | pitti: okay, I'm also going attach a stripped diff containing only the actual changes | 07:45 |
| free | pitti: because many of them were test code, which doesn't even end up in the packages | 07:45 |
| pitti | free: test code is fine | 07:45 |
| free | pitti: okay, I'll update the bugs you pointed out. Shall I update the description or attached a comment? or it's the same? | 07:46 |
| free | s/attached/attach/ | 07:46 |
| pitti | free: description is preferred, but it doesn't matter so much | 07:46 |
| pitti | free: but please add proper Ubuntu tasks; so far the bugs just have upstream tasks which aren't even "fix released" | 07:47 |
| pitti | and it's not clear which fixes are in jaunty/karmic already, etc. | 07:47 |
| pitti | free: and as I said, the intrepid upload should backport three or so of the most important fixes, not a complete backport of a new version | 07:47 |
| free | pitti: so that means open new bugs affecting the relevant releases? | 07:48 |
| pitti | free: not new bugs; new tasks | 07:48 |
| free | pitti: okay | 07:48 |
| pitti | free: and please close the upstream tasks as appropriate | 07:48 |
| pitti | free: ideally for an SRU, the upstream and karmic ubuntu task need to be "fix released" | 07:48 |
| pitti | we don't put stuff into stables which hasn't even been tested in the latest karmic release yet | 07:49 |
| pitti | (landscape-client is the obvious exception, which has a standing "new version allowed" permission in the SRU policy) | 07:49 |
| free | pitti: so the thing that we specifically QA-ed this version we're proposing as SRU, the QA process was rather strict | 07:49 |
| free | pitti: so we'd rather prefer to see this smart package accepted, as the changes are bug-fix only, no new features | 07:50 |
| pitti | free: but with this many changes it's utterly hard to guarantee that there are no regressions for users of the current version | 07:50 |
| pitti | free: you also changed things like the .desktop file, which suddenly make a new menu entry appear for people who have it installed | 07:50 |
| free | pitti: I and Gustavo Niemeyer are possibly available to help reviewing each single change | 07:51 |
| free | pitti: okay, we can strip these user-visible things | 07:51 |
| pitti | free: why not just have a few targetted patches, like the jaunty upload? | 07:51 |
| pitti | that's so much safer | 07:51 |
| pitti | free: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates#It%27s%20just%20a%20one-line%20change! | 07:52 |
| pitti | and the "When" section below | 07:52 |
| free | pitti: because we QA-ed those changes already, and we would need to re-do it | 07:52 |
| free | pitti: also note that the landscape-client accepted in -proposed depend on that version of smart or above | 07:53 |
| free | pitti: so that would need to change as well | 07:53 |
| pitti | free: no, it doesn't | 07:54 |
| pitti | I reviewed the debian/control changes, and it doesn't bump any smart dependency? | 07:54 |

Is there a better tutorial than https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PbuilderHowto ? | 07:55 |

| hoonteke | (I'm getting stuck on the pdebuild step, which errors out with Make ..[127]) | 07:55 |
| pitti | the new landscape-client is very intrusive, with conffile changes and everything; but it has a standing exception, so I didn't complain there | 07:56 |
| free | pitti: smart is a critical component of landscape-client | 07:56 |
| pitti | free: right, but it's not _only_ a component of landscape-client, other users might use it as well | 07:56 |
| pitti | sure, we don't support it officially, but that's not a reason for us to break it in stables | 07:57 |

| seb128 | the issue seems that the dialog was not clear to the user | 09:17 |

| ogra | is gdm really supposed to be in this awful black and white theme now ? or is that just my system | 09:17 |

| slangasek | seb128: well, I think that's more likely than there being a bug in pam-auth-update here, but I can't see how to make the dialog clearer | 09:18 |
| liw | ogra, I was assuming that was a bug, but didn't get around to reporting it yet... *sigh* | 09:18 |
| seb128 | slangasek, I've not seen the dialog but the user said that one option need to be selected? In which case the dialog should have a widgets allowing to pick one option only rather than what is has now? | 09:20 |
| slangasek | seb128: no, *at least* one option must be selected | 09:20 |
| slangasek | it's a multiselect | 09:20 |
| slangasek | anyway, the user's already done something wrong to see this dialog at all | 09:20 |
| seb128 | slangasek, the bug is confusing, "I selected them all, only to be informed that I need to select at least one." | 09:21 |
| slangasek | (setting debconf priority to medium or below) | 09:21 |
| seb128 | that seems to be a bug at least | 09:21 |

| lifeless | ArneGoetje: I'm asksing asking you because you are credited by LP | 11:24 |
| ArneGoetje | lifeless: The only reason I'm credited is because I uploaded the upstream translations and copied the other incomplete translations from xulrunner-1.9 over. I have no stakes in actually translating this language. | 11:58 |
| lifeless | ArneGoetje: so I think a mistake was made somewhere | 11:59 |
| lifeless | la is not english | 11:59 |
| lifeless | but there are very many strings marked as translated with the translated version being english | 11:59 |
| ArneGoetje | lifeless: I guess it's one of the incomplete translations and XPI format for strings that have no translations fall back to English | 12:00 |
| lifeless | ArneGoetje: _ugh_ - so we get it marked as translated? | 12:01 |
| ArneGoetje | lifeless: that's a requirement of XPI files. There needs to be a string there. | 12:01 |

| cjwatson | directhex: that was built a little while back, but I reproduced it on my laptop | 13:25 |
| directhex | cjwatson, i seem to recall removing support for it a while back - gettext's c# bindings barely function, and are for use with dotgnu (mono has much more robust bindings already) | 13:26 |
| directhex | it's far more work to make the bindings bundled with gettext actually properly buildable than to ignore them & write them off. and there are no rdeps | 13:27 |

| cjwatson | mdz: prefer media over origina | 15:52 |
| cjwatson | -a | 15:52 |
| cjwatson | mdz: how about MediaInfo to match the file name? | 15:52 |
| cjwatson | or InstallationMediaInfo | 15:53 |
| cjwatson | I'd prefer not to have Ubuntu there, it's implicit in the fact that the bug is being reported from Ubuntu and it saves the usual questions about Kubuntu etc. | 15:53 |
| mdz | cjwatson: "info" seems redundant. how about InstallationMedia? | 15:54 |
| mdz | I think it's not obvious that that means "this is the installation medium which was used to install the system", hence the "origin" attempt | 15:54 |
| beuno | mdz, would "source" be too confusing? | 15:57 |
| Riddell | mvo: is hardy upgrade enabled in the dist upgrade tool? | 15:57 |
| cjwatson | InstallationMedia or InstallationMedium sounds fine. "source" already has an overloaded meaning here, namely an apt source | 15:57 |
| mdz | cjwatson: done, with InstallationMedia | 15:58 |
| mdz | beuno: yes, I agree with cjwatson that it would be | 15:58 |
| mdz | pitti: I've committed the trivial apport change to add InstallationMedia to Ubuntu bug reports; it is of course not critical for 9.10 but should be quite safe if you need to do another upload (and is tested) | 15:59 |

| dotblankalt | In the g51vx and others when the touchpad event fires synclient fails | 16:07 |
| cjwatson | mountall clears /tmp at boot (with a grace period), but that's as intended. Clearing files from a running system on upgrade is quite a different matter ... | 16:07 |

| mvo | I was doing things in parallel (installing and watching /tmp) :) | 16:41 |
| Amaranth | it's nice how things recover from /tmp going away :) | 16:41 |
| lool | It seems to be before update-initramfs | 16:41 |
| lool | At the time where this is run: | 16:41 |
| lool | + echo update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-2.6.31-11-generic | 16:41 |
| lool | I already lost my /tmp | 16:41 |
| lool | perhaps at the very beginning of mkinitramfs | 16:42 |
| Amaranth | But it would have to be something else changing | 16:42 |
| Amaranth | Because the update of initramfs-tools would have called update-initramfs and wiped everything on the 3rd | 16:43 |
| tedg | ogra, no, but the chances are you installed while there was a bug that it didn't uninstall. The bug if fixed, but that doesn't help :) | 16:43 |
| tedg | ogra, you can just rm -rf /etc/indicators/ | 16:43 |

| kees | Amaranth, lool: did anything else install with dmraid when you installed it? | 16:44 |
| Amaranth | just the library | 16:44 |
| * kees boots a VM | 16:44 | |
| Amaranth | libdmraid1.0.0.rc15 | 16:44 |
| lool | kees: libdmraid | 16:44 |
| ogra | tedg, ok, i'll watch it | 16:44 |
| * Amaranth is wondering the sanity of testing this on his actual system now | 16:45 | |
| mvo | for me its gone around the time when udevadm trigger --subsystem-match=block --action=change is called | 16:45 |
| mvo | (so right after update-initramfs -u) | 16:45 |
| mvo | ok, so udevadm trigger and tmp is empty | 16:46 |
| james_w | hmm | 16:46 |
| lool | mvo: You confirmed that command kills it? | 16:47 |
| james_w | on a "sudo strace -f aptitude reinstall dmraid" | 16:47 |
| Amaranth | Confirmed | 16:47 |
| mvo | udevadm trigger --subsystem-match=block --action=change | 16:47 |
| james_w | I see /tmp go and then mkinitramfs stuff | 16:47 |
| kees | Keybuk: how/when does mountall run? | 16:47 |
| Amaranth | `sudo udevadm trigger --subsystem-match=block --action=change` and my /tmp is empty again | 16:47 |
| james_w | that's before that | 16:47 |
| Amaranth | james_w: it's asynchronous, I think | 16:48 |
| cjwatson | I was under the impression that any use of udevadm trigger on a live system had been quite clearly announced as a bug | 16:48 |
| lool | Amaranth: here too | 16:48 |
| james_w | Amaranth: update-initramfs is? | 16:48 |
| Amaranth | james_w: no, the other call | 16:48 |
| Keybuk | kees: on boot | 16:48 |
| Keybuk | cjwatson: indeed | 16:49 |
| james_w | Amaranth: yes, but update-initramfs runs first | 16:49 |
| cjwatson | as in, this is exactly the sort of thing you should expect to happen when you run udevadm trigger | 16:49 |
| cjwatson | https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2009-January/027260.html | 16:49 |
| james_w | and presumably that is the bit that puts the mkinitramfs dirs in /tmp | 16:49 |
| kees | Keybuk: ok, just verifying. | 16:49 |
| cjwatson | mind you | 16:49 |
| cjwatson | that says "change is completely safe" | 16:49 |
| cjwatson | while Amaranth says that udevadm trigger --subsystem-match=block --action=change breaks his world | 16:49 |
| Keybuk | cjwatson: ...except for block devices ;) | 16:50 |
| Keybuk | well, except for *RAID* block devices and stuff | 16:50 |
| cjwatson | Keybuk: ... on a Tuesday | 16:50 |
| mvo | mine too | 16:50 |
| lool | cjwatson: hahaha | 16:50 |
| Keybuk | precisely | 16:50 |
| lool | openoffice! | 16:50 |
| Keybuk | in general anything other than udev calling udevadm trigger is bad | 16:50 |
| lool | mvo: packagekit! | 16:50 |
| cjwatson | ok, so what's calling it? | 16:50 |
| lool | cjwatson: dmraid postinst | 16:50 |
| lool | # Activate existing arrays now. | 16:51 |
| lool | udevadm trigger --subsystem-match=block --action=change | 16:51 |
| Keybuk | (though there's definitely a mountall bug that it wipes /tmp more than once <g>) | 16:51 |
| lool | Keybuk: what can we use instead? | 16:51 |
| cjwatson | so dmraid is in the category of "I've installed udev rules and want udev to do something about it" | 16:51 |
| Keybuk | it's probably "right" | 16:51 |
| kees | yeah, isn't this the correct invocation, according to the ubuntu-devel email? | 16:51 |
| Keybuk | but something's always going to blow up | 16:51 |
| Amaranth | But dmraid also hasn't been updated for some time | 16:52 |
| Keybuk | there isn't a correct solution to this | 16:52 |
| Keybuk | unfortunately the real answer is probably "reboot" right nwo | 16:52 |
| lool | So we should drop the call and add a reboot required touch? | 16:52 |
| lool | actually update-initramfs probably does that anyway | 16:52 |
| cjwatson | mm, surely if you're upgrading dmraid you either have your arrays working about as well as you might expect, or will be content to reboot | 16:52 |
| cjwatson | I don't know that a reboot is always required, only if your arrays aren't there | 16:52 |
| cjwatson | but that's a recovery-type operation anyway | 16:53 |
| ogra | update-initramfs definately doesnt ... that would be horrid :) | 16:53 |
| Keybuk | why not just run whatever it is the udev rules run? | 16:53 |
| * kees cringes at "reboot" being a solution to anything on a linux system | 16:53 | |
| Keybuk | if dmraid is trying to activate raid devices, isn't there just a dmraid --scan type thing? | 16:53 |
| ogra | kees, you are so old school :) | 16:54 |
| kees | :) | 16:54 |
| cjwatson | dmraid-activate %k, apparently | 16:54 |
| cjwatson | SUBSYSTEM=="block", ACTION=="add|change", ENV{ID_TYPE}=="disk", ENV{ID_FS_USAGE}=="raid", KERNEL=="hd[a-z]|sd[a-z]", \ | 16:54 |
| cjwatson | RUN+="/sbin/dmraid-activate %k" | 16:54 |
| kees | this seems a bit off-topic. what is _wiping_ /tmp as a result of --action=change ? | 16:54 |
| Keybuk | kees: mountall probably ;) | 16:54 |
| kees | Keybuk: so it's not just at boot, then? | 16:55 |
| cjwatson | or there's dmraid -ay | 16:55 |
| Keybuk | since that WHEEE EVERYTHING CHANGED! also happened to tell mountall that you changed the root filesystem ;) | 16:55 |
| kees | so mountall should not wipe /tmp if it's already mounted... | 16:55 |
| Keybuk | kees: not sure why it didn't go away | 16:55 |
| Keybuk | but sometimes it hangs around if there's something in fstab it wants to mount but can't yet | 16:55 |
| Keybuk | probably your dmraid devices, ironically | 16:55 |
| Amaranth | None of these packages have been updated recently though | 16:55 |
| Amaranth | mountall, udev, dmraid, etc | 16:56 |
| kees | it could just be people doing the beta install. | 16:56 |
| Keybuk | kees: yeah I said that above | 16:56 |
| Amaranth | So why did it start blowing up now? | 16:56 |
| lool | cjwatson: I could run that I guess | 16:56 |
| james_w | Amaranth: dmraid was uploaded yesterday | 16:56 |
| james_w | Amaranth: about 2 hours before the bugs started showing up | 16:56 |
| Amaranth | hrm, mine says september | 16:56 |
| cjwatson | dmraid -ay sort of concerns me, though. isw arrays have special handling in dmraid-actvate | 16:56 |
| james_w | this morning I mean | 16:57 |
| cjwatson | honestly, I think it would be safer just not to do anything in the postinst | 16:57 |
| kees | Keybuk: ah, ok. so, bug in mountall, then? doesn't sound like we need to change dmraid? | 16:57 |
| lool | cjwatson: is -a for all or for activate? | 16:57 |
| Amaranth | oh, the changelog is out of date (aptitude changelog) | 16:57 |
| cjwatson | lool: activate | 16:57 |
| lool | Ok no -activate man page | 16:57 |
| lool | no --help | 16:57 |
| cjwatson | lool: but as stated I'm not convinced that it's the right answer | 16:57 |
| ogra | * debian/dmraid-activate: Remove the special-casing of the root | 16:57 |
| ogra | device which breaks in many situations and leaves the raw devices | 16:57 |
| ogra | exposed. | 16:57 |
| ogra | very suspicious | 16:57 |
| lool | cjwatson: Ok to upload a dmraid commenting out the udevadm call? | 16:57 |
| lool | I have that ready here as a stopgap | 16:57 |
| cjwatson | lool: it's fine by me, I think it would be by and large safe | 16:58 |
| cjwatson | needs a comment though! | 16:58 |
| kees | uhm, is the ubuntu-devel email incorrect then? we're removing functionality from dmraid due to a mountall bug? | 16:58 |
| Darxus | dch -i doesn't work in the linux-image packages because debian/changelog is overwritten by debian.master/changelog. Is there a reason I shouldn't file a bug about that? | 16:58 |
| Amaranth | Darxus: Because it's expected? | 16:59 |
| lool | cjwatson: Of course | 16:59 |
| kees | Darxus: should not file a bug because that source package is not designed to work with dch | 16:59 |
| lool | http://paste.ubuntu.com/287086/ what I uploaded | 16:59 |
| sistpoty|work | Darxus: use -c debian.master/changelog as dch argument | 16:59 |
| cjwatson | kees: is this functionality that is ever needed? enabling arrays on package upgrade? | 16:59 |
| cjwatson | seems kind of bizarre to me | 16:59 |
| kees | cjwatson: on _upgrade_ no, but install, yes? | 17:00 |
| Darxus | Where is that behavior in the linux image packages documented? | 17:00 |
| cjwatson | even that seems kind of odd to me | 17:00 |
| lool | cjwatson: Do you think this bug is worth an incident writeup? we closed the bug in roughly one hour, so I'm not sure whether it needs it | 17:00 |
| kees | cjwatson: why? you've installed the software to handle a device; I would expect the devices to appear. | 17:00 |
| cjwatson | although fixing dmraid to do this only on fresh install seems to me as if it would fix this bug | 17:00 |
| cjwatson | oh, no, not quite | 17:01 |
| kees | the bug is mountall's... it should not clear a mounted /tmp. | 17:01 |
| cjwatson | lool: I don't think it needs it, personally | 17:01 |
| lool | kees: That's my feeling as well | 17:01 |
| Amaranth | So add an also affects for mountall to keep track of it | 17:01 |
| cjwatson | kees: right, but udevadm trigger is historically a painful thing to call and we *should* be avoiding it wherever possible | 17:01 |
| lool | slangasek, Riddell, Hobbsee, pitti, mdz, Keybuk, cjwatson, kees, jdstrand, lool, pgraner, davidm, cody-somerville, jdong: incident closed, bug fix uploaded | 17:01 |
| seb128 | lool, thanks | 17:02 |
| pitti | lool: merci | 17:02 |
| Keybuk | lool: "incident" we're pre-release? | 17:02 |
| kees | cjwatson: should a follow-up to the ubuntu-devel email be sent then? it seems like dmraid qualifies as a caller of trigger. | 17:02 |
| Keybuk | ie. _still_in_development_ | 17:02 |
| kees | Amaranth: yeah, I would say the dmraid "fix" should be reverted once mountall is fixed. | 17:03 |
| Darxus | Can I file a bug for dchi needing a -c argument being undocumented? | 17:03 |
| pitti | lots of more innocent people testing beta now, though | 17:03 |
| Keybuk | so? | 17:03 |
| cjwatson | kees: up to Keybuk, I'm not all that familiar with the innards | 17:03 |
| Keybuk | kees: I'd say that any use of udevadm trigger is a bug | 17:03 |
| Keybuk | and should be removed wherever possible | 17:03 |
| kees | Keybuk: I'm not in a position to debate that; but having mountall wipe /tmp after it's in use is a bug regardless. :) | 17:04 |
| Keybuk | it's always going to have unwanted side-effects | 17:04 |
| Keybuk | because you're in effect saying "go do whatever you want, have fun!" | 17:04 |
| Keybuk | extreme case | 17:04 |
| Keybuk | udevadm trigger could result in a reboot ;) | 17:04 |
| kees | Keybuk: if the trigger thing is always a bug, then a follow-up to the email describing when/how to use it should be made. | 17:04 |
| Keybuk | udevadm trigger -> block device now available that's listed in fstab -> fsck runs -> fsck indicates filesystem was repaired and reboot required -> reboot | 17:05 |
| kees | email says, e.g. ""change" is completely safe." | 17:05 |
| Keybuk | kees: the e-mail is out of date | 17:05 |
| Keybuk | we do more as a result of udev events now | 17:05 |
| kees | :P | 17:05 |
| Keybuk | feel free to follow up | 17:05 |
| kees | I would except I don't know what's "current". :) | 17:06 |
| Keybuk | there's zero point in e-mailing anyway | 17:06 |
| Keybuk | nobody reads them | 17:06 |
| kees | Well, I do. :P | 17:06 |
| Darxus | Is debian/README.source the right place to document the need for a -c argument to dch ? | 17:06 |
| Keybuk | or they argue the toss when they're caught ignoring them | 17:06 |
| kees | Darxus: that's probably the best, yes. | 17:06 |
| smoser | can someone with commit access please revert slangasek's commit at http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-dev/ubuntu-seeds/ubuntu.karmic/revision/1581 ? the changes required in kernel are available now. | 17:06 |
| Darxus | kees: Thanks. | 17:06 |
| kees | Keybuk: how do I find out what mountall is waiting on? | 17:07 |
| Keybuk | kees: gdb | 17:08 |
| kees | Keybuk: would you normally expect mountall to exit soon after boot on a "normal" system? | 17:08 |
| Keybuk | yes | 17:09 |
| cjwatson | smoser: done | 17:09 |
| Keybuk | though, admittedly, it doesn't for me here <g> | 17:09 |
| Keybuk | probably a bug | 17:09 |
| kees | yeah, me either | 17:09 |
| smoser | thank you cjwatson | 17:09 |
| cjwatson | mountall's still running here too, I don't have anything much complex | 17:10 |
| cjwatson | ... oh, apart from those NFS mounts | 17:10 |
| ogra | mountall --daemon --tmptime=0 | 17:10 |
| ogra | here as well | 17:10 |
| kees | I have a VM with /, /proc, and swap in fstab and it's running. ;) | 17:10 |
| ogra | what does --daemon mean | 17:10 |
| ogra | i dont have anything apart from / and /home here | 17:10 |
| cjwatson | ogra: I think you should probably read the source | 17:11 |
| Keybuk | ogra: a daemon is a special type of UNIX process | 17:11 |
| Keybuk | they run it what we call the "background" | 17:11 |
| Keybuk | you see, UNIX is a multi-tasking operating system | 17:11 |
| Keybuk | so many different things can all run at once | 17:11 |
| Keybuk | isn't that clever :P | 17:11 |
| ogra | Keybuk, oooh and i thought soemthing mystically :P | 17:11 |
| ogra | like religious or so :P | 17:11 |

| seb128 | tedg, hey | 17:15 |
| cjwatson | Keybuk: I'm actually a bit baffled by bug 435707, having gone through the logs again in light of that most recent comment | 17:18 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 435707 in mountall "/forcefsck doesn't check root filesystem when passno=0" [Low,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/435707 | 17:18 |
| cjwatson | Keybuk: I still think the fix you merged from me is correct, but I no longer think it has anything to do with that bug :-) The log shows mountall getting past that point in run_fsck | 17:18 |
| Keybuk | does it run fsck? :) | 17:19 |
| cjwatson | it says it does | 17:19 |
| Keybuk | does it run it with -f ? | 17:19 |
| cjwatson | spawn: fsck / [820] - but the log message is obscured and doesn't print the arguments | 17:20 |
| cjwatson | actually, why aren't we getting a debug message from the spawned child? | 17:20 |
| cjwatson | there should be one immediately before the execvp | 17:21 |
| Keybuk | probably usual stdio fuckage | 17:22 |
| Keybuk | I fixed that in trunk | 17:22 |
| cjwatson | r47? | 17:23 |
| cjwatson | I think you might also need a flush after the nih_debug | 17:23 |
| === jdong__ is now known as jdong | ||
| Keybuk | don't you get a flush on exec anyway? | 17:26 |
| cjwatson | Keybuk: no | 17:27 |
| Keybuk | surely you must do? | 17:28 |
| cjwatson | why so? | 17:28 |
| cjwatson | certainly nothing specifies it, and glibc's execve stub is pretty simple and doesn't do it | 17:28 |
| Keybuk | otherwise what takes care of that? | 17:29 |
| Keybuk | your stdio buffers don't magically get passed via shared memory to the exec()d process that obviously knows what to do with them <g> | 17:29 |
| cjwatson | (it would have to be in the libc) | 17:29 |
| cjwatson | you're supposed to flush before exec | 17:29 |
| Keybuk | where does it say that? | 17:29 |
| cjwatson | it's implicit in the fact that exec doesn't flush :) | 17:29 |
| Keybuk | cjwatson: it doesn't say that it doesn't | 17:29 |
| cjwatson | reality does, though ... | 17:29 |
| Keybuk | I'll take your word for it ;) | 17:31 |
| pitti | lifeless: so what are you looking for, desktop translation wise? | 17:31 |
| lifeless | pitti: the mechanism; ted has a bug where the indicator menu entries are not being translated | 17:33 |
| lifeless | they are from the desktop files, and if he sets a domain for the menu process, they don't translate | 17:33 |
| tedg | pitti: seb128 is saying that removing the textdomain setting makes it work for him. | 17:34 |
| kees | pitti: should apport use launchpad.net instead of edge? | 17:34 |
| pitti | tedg: what's the .desktop file? | 17:34 |
| pitti | kees: for what? | 17:34 |
| lifeless | pitti: several | 17:34 |
| tedg | pitti: evolution-mail, pidgin, etc. | 17:34 |
| lifeless | one example is evolution-2.28 | 17:34 |
| seb128 | tedg, it works on a simple testcase though | 17:34 |
| seb128 | I wrote one this morning which does the same init | 17:34 |
| seb128 | ie setlocale, bindtextdomain and textdomain | 17:34 |
| seb128 | and things are correctly translated | 17:34 |
| pitti | lifeless: hang on, I thought we're talking about the indicator applet .desktop file? | 17:34 |

| seb128 | I need to try again your code | 17:35 |
| lifeless | pitti: nope, about the things it shows which are refleccted via g_app_info | 17:35 |
| seb128 | gdesktopapp basically use gkey which use gettext | 17:35 |
| pitti | kees: apport doesn't do anything in particular for edge; the reporter is probably in lp-beta-testers? | 17:35 |
| pitti | oh | 17:36 |
| lifeless | that should be either calling dgettext or binding and restoring the domain | 17:36 |
| lifeless | pitti: so we just wanted to know where the strings to go help in debugging/building hypothesis | 17:36 |
| pitti | now I know what you are talking about | 17:36 |
| pitti | so that code reads the .desktop files? | 17:37 |
| seb128 | I already explained to tedg how those are working... | 17:37 |
| lifeless | seb128: yup, we get that | 17:37 |
| seb128 | pitti, no, it uses gdesktopapp which use gkey | 17:37 |
| seb128 | which is the glib change you wrote | 17:37 |

| seb128 | who would like to parse those manually anyway? | 17:37 |
| Keybuk | bdmurray: kernel bug of some kind | 17:38 |
| pitti | kees: oh, that; but that's not related to where the browser sends you to, it's been there forever | 17:38 |
| pitti | kees: mainly because there is no production launchpadlib API (or at least hadn't been until recently) | 17:38 |

| LaserJock | anybody know what the CLI name of "Universal Access Preferences" is? | 18:31 |
| slangase` | seb128: pam-auth-update shouldn't be touching /tmp at all | 18:38 |
| seb128 | slangase`, there is nothing in debconf using tmp which could get confusing on tmp wiping? | 18:39 |
| Amaranth | LaserJock: gnome-at-properties? | 18:43 |
| LaserJock | Amaranth: hmm, doesn't seem to be it | 18:43 |
| slangase` | seb128: no, it has its own /var/cache dir, no reason to write anything at all to /tmp | 18:43 |
| seb128 | slangase`, ok, so ignore me, I just though that the timing was suspicious | 18:44 |
| Amaranth | LaserJock: grep "Universal Access" /usr/share/applications/* | 18:44 |
| Amaranth | LaserJock: then open that file and check the Exec | 18:44 |
| slangase` | "udevadm trigger" -hahaha | 18:45 |
| slangase` | lool: nice bug | 18:45 |
| slangase` | lool: you still have a task open on mountall; is that an issue or not? | 18:45 |
| === slangase` is now known as slangasek | ||
| seb128 | slangasek, we got 2 of those pam bugs today btw, reassigned your way | 18:46 |
| LaserJock | Amaranth: no help | 18:47 |
| Amaranth | LaserJock: I've never heard of it | 18:47 |
| Amaranth | slangasek: Technically the bug is that mountall wipes /tmp on an already running system, the dmraid change is a workaround | 18:47 |
| LaserJock | Amaranth: I mean, the grep returns nothing | 18:49 |
| Amaranth | LaserJock: Right, I figured that | 18:49 |
| Amaranth | LaserJock: Was saying I've never heard of anything called "Universal Access Preferences" | 18:50 |
| Amaranth | I have "Assistive Technologies" | 18:50 |
| Amaranth | but that's gnome-at-properties | 18:50 |
| cjwatson | there's a "Universal Access" *menu* ... | 18:50 |
| slangasek | seb128: hmm, more of that pam bug? Ok, maybe it does have something to do with /tmp, in a way I don't understand | 18:50 |
| Amaranth | cjwatson: not here | 18:50 |
| slangasek | maybe the debconf GNOME frontend breaks when /tmp goes away | 18:50 |
| cjwatson | Amaranth: provision for one anyway | 18:51 |
| Amaranth | Right, but empty | 18:51 |
| seb128 | slangasek, yes | 18:51 |
| cjwatson | slangasek: debconf in general uses /tmp | 18:51 |
| slangasek | oh | 18:51 |
| slangasek | drat, then :) | 18:51 |
| slangasek | ok, I'll mark them as dupes | 18:51 |
| seb128 | slangasek, thanks | 18:52 |
| cjwatson | not that I can remember exactly where | 18:52 |
| * Amaranth should probably log out to fix his /tmp getting wiped eventually | 18:52 | |
| cjwatson | I'm sure it's somewhere other than in the dialog and editor frontends | 18:52 |
| Amaranth | but lunch sounds more important right now | 18:52 |
| LaserJock | Amaranth: it's in my systray and I can't figure out where it came from or how to get rid of it | 18:52 |
| Amaranth | LaserJock: oh, that's gnome-at-properties | 18:52 |
| cjwatson | speaking of menus, why do I have a duplicate Calculator item at the top level of Applications? | 18:53 |
| Amaranth | LaserJock: uncheck the first box there | 18:53 |
| Amaranth | LaserJock: the app itself is gnome-at-visual | 18:53 |
| LaserJock | Amaranth: it is unchecked :( | 18:53 |
| LaserJock | Amaranth: and gnome-at-visual is not running | 18:54 |
| slangasek | cody-somerville: seen that xubuntu livefs builds are failing? Looks like a seed ordering problem, maybe | 18:54 |
| Amaranth | LaserJock: Well I'm stumpted | 18:54 |
| Amaranth | err, stumped :P | 18:55 |
| LaserJock | Amaranth: hmm | 18:55 |
| slangasek | cody-somerville: oh, no - I guess this is an already-fixed bug in xubuntu-gdm-theme, and the ports just need to catchu p | 18:55 |
| slangasek | cjwatson: hmm, seen bug #444587? Seems to be a regression caused by your latest grub upload | 18:59 |

| cjwatson | I certainly didn't change anything directly related to that | 19:01 |
| slangasek | oh; I didn't look too deeply, I thought 'objcopy' was kind of a red flag word :) | 19:02 |

| cjwatson | reproduced in a local build, but dinner is ready so it'll have to wait | 19:04 |
| * slangasek nods | 19:05 | |
| cjwatson | might be able to backport another piece from grub2 for that | 19:07 |
| LaserJock | is there a place that gnome lists what apps to restore from a session? | 19:08 |
| cjwatson | slangasek: at least the .deb compresses well ;-) | 19:10 |
| slangasek | indeed! | 19:10 |

| lifeless | seb128: this translation thing; is it release critical? | 19:22 |
| lifeless | seb128: we're assuming it is for now, but if its not, we have some rc stuff we would switch to | 19:22 |
| seb128 | lifeless, no it's not, I've a one liner workaround | 19:32 |
| lifeless | seb128: ok, thanks. Thats disabling the indicators own translations? | 19:33 |
| tkamppeter | pitti, there still seems to be a problem with USB printing, see bug 420015, comment #105, user tells that he has to set /dev/bus/usb/*/* permissions manually so that printer gets discovered and new udev rules did not make it into current udev. | 19:34 |
| ubottu | Error: Could not parse data returned by Launchpad: The read operation timed out (https://launchpad.net/bugs/420015/+text) | 19:35 |
| seb128 | lifeless, I will need to test, it's commenting the textdomain call | 19:35 |
| seb128 | lifeless, don't bother with that bug for now | 19:35 |
| lifeless | seb128: we suspect that will disable the translation for 'm' etc beside the time data | 19:35 |
| seb128 | lifeless, thanks for letting me know I will check that but I want to try debugging it first, I've a working testcase and I know how it's supposed to work so I will give it a try | 19:37 |
| seb128 | ie a standalone gtk code with the same locale init code works correctly | 19:37 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: hm, current cups runs the usb backend as root again; that still doesn't work? | 19:37 |
| lifeless | seb128: right, I | 19:37 |
| seb128 | I will keep you guys updated tomorrow | 19:37 |
| lifeless | 've been looking at the glib patch | 19:37 |
| pitti | tkamppeter: also, I thought we'd use usblp again? | 19:37 |
| lifeless | seb128: and i'm happy to follow through and debug it directly too | 19:38 |
| lifeless | seb128: I think its g_dgettext perhaps. | 19:38 |
| lifeless | I think I may know what it is | 19:39 |
| seb128 | lifeless, oh ok, what is it? | 19:39 |
| seb128 | it's weird that my testcase is working then | 19:39 |
| lifeless | look at g_dgettext in devhelp | 19:39 |
| slangasek | ArneGoetje, pitti: language-pack-gnome-bo uninstallable, breaking livefs builds? Known issue? (related to our space problem?) | 19:39 |
| lifeless | it disables all translations if the application doesn't have a translation | 19:40 |
| lifeless | so if the indicator-messages-service isn't translated *itself*, it won't show trnslations for anything else either | 19:40 |
| seb128 | lifeless, define "the application doesn't have a translation" | 19:40 |
| seb128 | lifeless, ie if there is no mo file to use? | 19:40 |
| seb128 | lifeless, ok, easy to try, add a dummy string to translate and see if that fixes the issue | 19:41 |
| lifeless | seb128: I'm reading devhelp, so I can't define "the application doesn't have a translation" very well | 19:41 |
| lifeless | but yes, I think a mo file - even an empty mo file - for the indicator-messages-service domain will make it work | 19:41 |
| pitti | slangasek: presumably; it just stopped in the middle of generation | 19:41 |
| lifeless | seb128: if your test case has a mo file for your test local, that would be why it works | 19:41 |
| lifeless | seb128: here's how I'd test - change the DOMAIN that indicator-messages-service binds to to be something that is translated | 19:42 |
| lifeless | e.g. gnome-panel or something | 19:42 |
| seb128 | lifeless, the testcase was using a dummy domain for the textdomain calls | 19:43 |
| seb128 | lifeless, thanks for the hints, I will play with that after dinner | 19:44 |
| lifeless | or install glib dbgsym and breakpoint translated = g_dgettext (key_file->gettext_domain, | 19:44 |
| seb128 | right | 19:45 |
| lifeless | then see if it returns the orig value even though the domain etc has been set right | 19:45 |
| seb128 | did you guys try that? | 19:45 |
| lifeless | no, I was prepping to do that when we realised that the behaviour of g_dgettext was relevant | 19:45 |
| lifeless | and read up on it.. with shocking results;) | 19:45 |
| seb128 | anyway as said I've a good idea how to look at the returned string etc so I will play with that later | 19:45 |
| lifeless | cool | 19:45 |
| seb128 | I need to go for dinner now | 19:45 |
| lifeless | good luck | 19:45 |
| seb128 | bll | 19:45 |

| seb128 | thanks | 19:45 |
| seb128 | you too for the next issue you will tackle ;-) | 19:46 |
