| slangasek | huh, there's somewhere that one can read about Debian's plans for multiarch? :) | 01:38 |
| slangasek | (that doesn't point back at the Ubuntu wiki page? :) | 01:38 |
| LaserJock | I wonder how much need there is for multiarch these days | 01:40 |
| slangasek | plenty | 01:41 |
| slangasek | people still use 32-bit flash, and that depends on ia32-libs, and ia32-libs is a festering boil | 01:42 |
| LaserJock | I thought the demand was mostly for things like Flash and java | 01:42 |
| slangasek | that's the primary desktop case, yes | 01:42 |
| LaserJock | but isn't there 64bit flash coming down the pike? | 01:42 |
| slangasek | maybe someday | 01:42 |
| slangasek | oh, and wine is all 32-bit, too | 01:43 |
| LaserJock | I don't know, I just remember it being such a pain to have amd64 and now I hardly notice the difference | 01:43 |
| LaserJock | although that could be because of ia32-libs | 01:43 |
| TheMuso | Skype is also 32-bit, and likely will only be so for a while. | 01:44 |
| slangasek | popcon says ia32-libs is the 2179th most popular Ubuntu package | 01:44 |
| Amaranth | LaserJock: 10.1 should have official support for 64-bit on linux, windows, and OS X | 01:44 |
| slangasek | and the single largest :-P | 01:44 |
| Amaranth | LaserJock: but they aren't even to a beta of that yet | 01:45 |
| slangasek | cyberix_: so where were you reading about multiarch? | 01:45 |
| LaserJock | slangasek: really, that big? | 01:45 |
| slangasek | LaserJock: you really don't know what goes into ia32-libs, do you :) | 01:45 |
| LaserJock | I do, but I didn't think it was *that* much | 01:45 |
| slangasek | 553M/home/lp_archive/ubuntu/pool/universe/i/ia32-libs/ia32-libs_2.7ubuntu15.tar.gz | 01:46 |
| Amaranth | LaserJock: ia32-libs is basically a copy of GTK+ and everything in the stack below that | 01:46 |
| slangasek | Amaranth: and pulseaudio, and... | 01:46 |
| Amaranth | oh, and pulseaudio | 01:46 |
| Amaranth | yeah | 01:46 |
| Amaranth | pain | 01:46 |
| Amaranth | 64-bit users without 5mbit broadband need not apply | 01:46 |
| slangasek | the .deb is only 29MB | 01:47 |
| Amaranth | really? | 01:47 |
| slangasek | but the source tarball has to include all the sources | 01:47 |
| slangasek | it's just impossible to *maintain*, because it's the equivalent of having to upload an ISO | 01:47 |
| Amaranth | yeah, that'd be an all day event for me | 01:48 |
| LaserJock | yeah | 01:48 |

| cyberix_ | LaserJock: I think Debian's original multiarch proposal states that the spec isn't only about hardware architectures, but about software architectures as well | 04:01 |
| cyberix_ | LaserJock: I recall them mentioning support for Windows executables or something | 04:02 |
| cyberix_ | wild dreams, might be | 04:02 |
| cyberix_ | but maybe part of it makes sense | 04:02 |
| cyberix_ | they are also talking about emulating hardware | 04:03 |
| cyberix_ | so eventually you could have a package that supports running PowerPC or Gameboy applications :-D | 04:04 |
| cyberix_ | The page in Ubuntu Wiki says: "Ubuntu 9.10 introduces support for installing packages from multiple architectures on a single system. This makes a wider array of 32-bit applications available to users of 64-bit Ubuntu." | 04:05 |
| cyberix_ | How accurate is this? | 04:05 |
| cyberix_ | I mean, I see no marks of the specification being applied to current beta release of 9.10 | 04:06 |
| cyberix_ | s/marks/signs/ | 04:06 |

| cyberix_ | TheMuso: That is the impression I got, but I'm not sure if that sentence refers to something else | 04:08 |

| Keybuk | that bug is full of people misinterpreting the problem | 11:11 |
| === xba is now known as xab | ||
| Keybuk | and it has nothing to do with console-setup | 11:15 |
| Keybuk | so far the bug can be summarised by "adding dependency on $RANDOM_THING_THAT_TAKES_SOME_TIME solves the problem for me!" | 11:23 |
| Keybuk | you may as well solve it by sticking "sleep 60" in there somewhere | 11:23 |
| Keybuk | at some point, maybe even today, I'm going to sit down - read the X source, and figure out what it actually *really* needs | 11:24 |
| Keybuk | I'd hoped someone else would do that so I didn't have to, but meh | 11:24 |
| ogra | Keybuk, i had a very weird bug yesterday, due to having to test a jaunty kernel on a default karmic install, the ext4 FS didnt work 100%, mountall got in a constant reboot loop and i had no chance to get into the system anymore | 11:28 |
| ogra | (mountall called fsck, fsck died, system rebooted ... same game over and over) | 11:28 |
| Keybuk | it doesn't reboot it fsck dies | 11:29 |
| pitti | Keybuk: well, it's not that random; it loops on ioctl VT_ACTIVATE while the underlying console went away or was changed; I just don't understand what else would even touch vt7, we have a hackish patch in gdm to not use vt 1 to 6 | 11:29 |
| Keybuk | it only reboots if fsck completes successfully after repairing the root fs | 11:29 |
| ogra | yes, and says its usual ************** REBOOT LINUX *************** | 11:29 |
| Keybuk | pitti: console-setup doesn't touch vt7 | 11:29 |
| Keybuk | pitti: I can tell this without looking, because cjwatson wrote it, and he's smart | 11:29 |
| Keybuk | but since one should look | 11:29 |
| Keybuk | warcraft scott% grep ACTIVE /etc/default/console-setup | 11:30 |
| Keybuk | ACTIVE_CONSOLES="/dev/tty[1-6]" | 11:30 |
| ogra | Keybuk, right, but wouldnt it make sense to have mountall to respect some kind of kernel cmdline option so you can forcefully disable fsck ? | 11:30 |
| Keybuk | pitti: it honestly wouldn't surprise me if the real culprit turns out to be cryptsetup | 11:30 |
| ogra | Keybuk, the system was fine, the filesystem wasnt corrupt, my clock was wrong and the last mount time was in the future | 11:30 |
| Keybuk | or something else that's using "console owner" :) | 11:30 |
| Keybuk | (ie. it could be mountall) | 11:30 |
| Keybuk | ogra: if that was the case, you would have been given a shell, not rebooted | 11:31 |
| ogra | due to the fact that it couldnt be mounted (caused by fsck dying to early and rebooting) it got into that endless loop | 11:31 |
| pitti | Keybuk: hm, I have cryptsetup installed, but no encrypted partitions at all | 11:31 |
| ogra | i didnt get a shell | 11:31 |
| Keybuk | though maybe it shouldn't just reboot, but let you have a shell ;) | 11:31 |
| ogra | yes :) | 11:31 |
| Keybuk | pitti: that doesn't matter - if cryptsetup is run, it "steals" the console | 11:31 |
| ogra | thats what i mean | 11:31 |
| Keybuk | stealing the console while X is running can be bad | 11:31 |
| ogra | any way of mounting the disk to actually fix the stamp | 11:31 |
| pitti | ok | 11:31 |
| Keybuk | pitti: stealing the console is the only way I know to actually "hang up" a tty | 11:32 |
| Keybuk | opening it, writing to it, mucking around with it, etc. are all safe | 11:32 |
| Keybuk | but starting something that attempts to become the foreground process group for /dev/console, when vt7 is active (which X is the fg pg for) can go wrong | 11:33 |
| Keybuk | this is why "console" in Upstart is bad | 11:33 |
| pitti | Keybuk: so, I'll ask in the bug whether the reporters have cryptsetup installed, and I'll also test it here again | 11:33 |
| Keybuk | yeah | 11:33 |
| pitti | it's at least another data point | 11:33 |
| Keybuk | it needs some genuine debugging - please don't rush a fix to this one | 11:33 |
| Keybuk | lots of things will "appear" to solve it | 11:34 |
| pitti | Keybuk: the other obvious candidate is usplash, I guess? | 11:36 |
| pitti | (although that should be on vt8) | 11:36 |
| === ogra_ is now known as ogra | ||
| === ogra is now known as Guest77653 | ||
| === Guest77653 is now known as ogra | ||
| ogra | pitti, btw, was there a final decision if usplash gets enabled by default again ? | 11:42 |
| ogra | (/me needs to prepare an arm specific change if not, we surely want it there) | 11:42 |
| pitti | ogra: the most recent decision I'm aware of is still the one from UDS: let it run when required (cryptsetup et al) or after a timeout when X doesn't start fast enough | 11:43 |
| pitti | but right now it just seems to start unconditionally again | 11:43 |
| pitti | either that, or the timeout is working :) (can't say with my 85 second boot) | 11:44 |
| ogra | right, on armel we're about 8-10sec in the initramfs, its between 10 and 13secd until X comes up | 11:44 |
| ogra | and the vendor kernels spit out messages where we dont want to see any ... | 11:44 |
| ogra | so usplash is a clear yes for me on that arch | 11:45 |
| slangasek | pitti: it's not unconditional if you have cryptsetup installed... | 11:45 |
| pitti | ah, so that might be it | 11:45 |
| slangasek | (i.e.: "cryptsetup is installed" is the condition under which it runs) | 11:45 |
| pitti | well, I have crytpsetup, but no encrypted partitiosn | 11:45 |
| pitti | slangasek: I had thought that only the prompt would actually cause it to start up; but that might look bad indeed | 11:46 |
| slangasek | in theory it's possible to tweak the cryptsetup initramfs hook to not set USPLASH=yes unless needed | 11:46 |
| pitti | something for lucid perhaps | 11:46 |
| slangasek | but it looked hairy and I couldn't bring myself to work on it | 11:46 |
| pitti | it'd just be nice to be able to install cryptsetup by default again | 11:47 |
| cjwatson | pitti: in yesterday's foundations meeting, we decided to enable it by default for karmic and revisit for lucid; the action is mine | 11:47 |
| pitti | since it's useful for encrypted USB sticks and the like, even more so since we finally have a GUI tool to set them up | 11:47 |
| pitti | cjwatson: sounds like a safe approach for karmic, thansk | 11:47 |
| * ogra hugs cjwatson | 11:47 | |
| ogra | prevents me from adding ugly hacks :) | 11:48 |
| pitti | slangasek: we probably don't need to enable usplash on the fly during boot; making the USPLASH= value dependent on an empty/nonempty /etc/crypttab should be sufficient | 11:48 |
| pitti | but anyway, that's lucid beautification | 11:48 |
| slangasek | pitti: it wouldn't be enabled on the fly - we have enough information at initramfs generation time to tell us whether it's needed for the root fs | 11:49 |
| slangasek | except that the way the initramfs scripts are put together, we currently don't get that information until well after we've set USPLASH=yes :) | 11:49 |

| tseliot | pitti: make a backup of your xorg.conf and then type: python /usr/share/screen-resolution-extra/policyui.py 2048x2048 | 12:00 |
| tseliot | don't use the dontzap code (as we don't use it in Ubuntu) | 12:00 |
| pitti | tseliot: oh, that works; (it's actually lying since on intel that's not necessary any more) | 12:00 |
| pitti | tseliot: right, I just looked for something to test the new policykit stuff, and ./policyui.py just hangs the same way | 12:01 |

| tseliot | pitti: ok | 13:34 |
| mat_t | pitti: hey | 13:35 |
| mat_t | pitti: do you know why we don't ship human icon theme anymore? | 13:36 |
| seb128 | mat_t, it's not used by default and take space on the cd which we use for other things,ie translations | 13:39 |
| mat_t | seb128: who made this decision? | 13:41 |
| seb128 | mat_t, to use humanity by default? ask djsiegel | 13:42 |
| mat_t | seb128: to remove human | 13:42 |
| seb128 | mat_t, to not install human by default, it was a requirement to switch to humanity to win cd space, pitti did the change | 13:43 |
| seb128 | mat_t, is there any issue with that? | 13:43 |
| mat_t | seb128: ok, so was that pitti's decision? | 13:43 |
| seb128 | mat_t, collection distro decision if you want | 13:43 |
| seb128 | collective | 13:43 |
| seb128 | cds are what they are and we have to make the default install use one | 13:44 |
| seb128 | mat_t, do you have an issue with not having it installed by default? | 13:44 |
| seb128 | mat_t, open a bug and talk to pitti or slangasek I guess... | 13:44 |
| mat_t | seb128: ok, I'm not saying the decision is wrong, but anything that affects the user experience on a large scale should be consulted with the design team | 13:45 |
| seb128 | mat_t, it doesn't affect anything? it just don't list an extra theme which is not used by default... | 13:45 |
| seb128 | mat_t, using humanity was a user design team request | 13:45 |
| mat_t | seb128: the potential consequences are, if the icon is not present in humanity, it will be replaced by gnome default, which is less consistent | 13:45 |
| seb128 | mat_t, and that has been discussed with djsiegel without doing the change | 13:46 |
| mat_t | seb128: I'm only talking about removing human | 13:46 |
| seb128 | mat_t, we specifically checked with the design team that human was not required as a fallback for humanity | 13:46 |
| mat_t | seb128: with whom? | 13:46 |
| seb128 | djsiegel when he did the request | 13:46 |
| seb128 | and some of the icon guys were on the channel too | 13:47 |
| mat_t | seb128: ok, I see | 13:47 |
| mat_t | seb128: please don't understand me wrong, I know the importance of disk space, but decisions like that must be confirmed with ivanka | 13:48 |
| seb128 | mat_t, the request came from djsiegel | 13:48 |
| seb128 | mat_t, next time send whoever is deciding to discuss the changes? | 13:48 |
| seb128 | mat_t, I think djsiegel was representing your team there | 13:49 |
| mat_t | seb128: ok, I see your point. I'll pass that on. | 13:49 |
| tevox562 | hi | 13:49 |
| seb128 | mat_t, we didn't do anything out of making the change your team request one day before beta freeze in a hurry | 13:49 |
| tevox562 | hi can someone help me??? and sry for my bad english ^^ | 13:51 |
| seb128 | mat_t, don't get me wrong but we made efforts to accomodate changes request from your team coming very late, ie the day of the beta freeze, not sure we can take blame there | 13:51 |
| mat_t | seb128: Absolutely. I was only asking where the request came from. I know you guys did a lot to accomodate late changes. | 13:51 |
| tevox562 | bb | 13:52 |

| slangasek | smoser: you understand that the difference in download size between a 2GB tar.gz and a 10GB tar.gz is going to be minimal, right? | 13:58 |
| tseliot | pitti: ok, I pulled from your branch and pushed to my branch | 13:58 |
| pitti | tseliot: thanks | 13:59 |
| smoser | slangasek, yes. | 13:59 |
| slangasek | smoser: btw, I've already poked the tar -S code into the build script (but haven't committed it yet), that was the easiest way for me to do an empirical test ;) | 13:59 |
| smoser | but the 2G have other advantages | 13:59 |
| tseliot | pitti: thanks for working on it. Please upload it when you can | 13:59 |
| slangasek | smoser: ok, just making sure that was the case :) | 13:59 |
| pitti | tseliot: already done :) | 13:59 |
| tseliot | even better | 13:59 |
| smoser | big advantage is that per default UEC settings, you could only run 10G images on a "large" instance type | 14:00 |
| pitti | mdz: gedit problem> seems settled now? | 14:00 |
| smoser | with 2G we can run on any of the sizes. | 14:00 |
| pitti | hi mat_t | 14:00 |
| mat_t | hey pitti - all clear now, just talking to seb128 about it atm | 14:00 |
| mat_t | :) | 14:00 |
| pitti | mat_t: that was discussed with kwwii, and it seemed quite obvious to replace human with humanity; it actually just fell off the CD by itself, since human-theme moved dependency from human to humanity | 14:00 |
| seb128 | pitti, seems that humanity doesn't have as many icons that human | 14:01 |
| pitti | mat_t: ah, the fallback issue actually came up in #u-desktop, and we were told that the coverage should be pretty much identical now | 14:01 |
| mdz | pitti, yes, thanks to seb128 | 14:01 |
| seb128 | so dropping human means some fallback go to very different icons | 14:01 |
| pitti | hm, when we did the switch we were told it had.. | 14:02 |
| mat_t | pitti: ok, understood. In case there's a need to "bring back" human, what are the consequences? Lang packs? | 14:03 |
| seb128 | mat_t, do you have a list of problematic icons? | 14:03 |
| pitti | mat_t: I'd rather just copy the missing icons from human | 14:03 |
| pitti | shipping an extra 2.5 MB just because of 5 missing icons makes little sense | 14:03 |
| slangasek | smoser: also, I'm fiddling with trying to get make-web-indices give sensible output for UEC; rough draft at http://uec-images.ubuntu.com/karmic/current/; but I'd like to clarify the file naming scheme before committing (and committing to) this, see my reply to your other email :) | 14:04 |
| seb128 | ups, xchat-gnome crash | 14:04 |
| mat_t | pitti: it's also the question of giving users more choices. | 14:04 |
| seb128 | mat_t, what pitti said, if we can get a list of problematic icons those could perhaps be added to humanity? | 14:04 |
| seb128 | mat_t, they can install the package from any package management tool | 14:04 |
| mat_t | seb128: is there an easy way of finding out which ones are missing? | 14:05 |
| seb128 | mat_t, well, you are the one who noticed issues? | 14:05 |
| seb128 | which ones are those? | 14:05 |
| mat_t | seb128: well, casual users will never know how to do it | 14:05 |
| seb128 | mat_t, I guess we can make the list of icons in both themes and diff easily | 14:05 |
| seb128 | mat_t, do casual user need to change theme? | 14:05 |
| cjwatson | we can't give users an arbitrary amount of choice on the CD | 14:06 |
| cjwatson | and we don't in other cases where we might otherwise like to | 14:06 |
| mat_t | ok, again, I'm not saying we should bring back human. I just need to know the potential consequences if such request comes in | 14:07 |
| cjwatson | indeed, in most cases we just pick the best thing and deliver that on the CD; I think that's even in Ubuntu's founding principles somewhere :) | 14:07 |
| mat_t | If the consequence is, for example, not having another language on the CD, it's not worth even thinking about. | 14:09 |
| cjwatson | languages are about the only thing we can remove without even more difficult knock-on consequences, and the size of human-icon-theme is (off the top of my head) roughly a language's worth | 14:10 |
| slangasek | 1.4M - yep | 14:10 |
| cjwatson | we passed the point where we had any other significant slack in our CD images several releases ago (although I thought we'd bought quite a bit this time round by moving help to language packs?) | 14:10 |
| slangasek | soren: if by "extracted image" you mean "gunzipped", then you were perfectly clear | 14:10 |
| soren | slangasek: Then I'm confused :) | 14:11 |
| doko_ | ttx: did see that /usr/lib/java/swt.jar is handled by an alternative, which is bad on it's own. question is, if this jar is used by some eucalyptus package directly, or if the versioned jar is used? | 14:11 |
| mat_t | cjwatson: thx | 14:11 |
| slangasek | cjwatson: that just means that we have a respectable number of languages on the CD now, which we hadn't for some time | 14:11 |
| ttx | doko_: looking | 14:12 |
| cjwatson | slangasek: fair point | 14:12 |
| slangasek | soren: gzip is a streaming compression algorithm - it doesn't have any idea of sparse files | 14:12 |
| soren | slangasek: I know. | 14:12 |
| slangasek | soren: so TTBOMK, when you gunzip something, it writes out every zero, it doesn't create a sparse file on output | 14:12 |
| soren | Indeed. | 14:13 |
| slangasek | so feeding this back into tar -S isn't going to do anything useful either :) | 14:13 |
| soren | Hence the "gunzip -c $file | cp -sparse=always /dev/stdin $out" trick. | 14:13 |
| soren | Oh. | 14:13 |
| slangasek | oh, ok | 14:13 |
| soren | I see what you mean now :) | 14:13 |
| slangasek | I haven't looked at the scripts, didn't realize you were doing such tricks | 14:13 |
| ttx | doko_: DEB_JARS := swt-gtk-3.4.2 | 14:15 |
| smoser | slangasek, just replied. | 14:15 |
| soren | cjwatson: You mentioned something about grub2 support in VMBuilder. Is this something you're working on? | 14:16 |
| doko_ | ttx: ok, thanks | 14:16 |
| ttx | doesn't use swt.jar at all. | 14:16 |
| slangasek | smoser: sorry, by "version" I meant "ubuntu-uec-karmic" - or, preferably, "karmic-uec" if we get the naming schemes lined up | 14:17 |
| slangasek | smoser: -virtual and -server> - these packages aren't co-installable at the same ABI version | 14:17 |

| smoser | slangasek, the other thing i'd like to know, when looking at directory output is if the kernel actually changed from yesterday. if it did not, then there is no reason for me to do get a new one. | 14:19 |
| smoser | so, with kernels named: | 14:20 |
| slangasek | smoser: will having the version number in the description field give you that? | 14:20 |
| smoser | $version-$arch-{vmlinuz,initrd}-$flavor | 14:20 |
| smoser | slangasek, yeah, other than having to dig it out | 14:20 |
| smoser | and guessing which package in that list with "linux" in it is the one that i care about | 14:21 |
| cjwatson | soren: I have been working on it, but it's blocked on a backport of a grub2 change I made upstream a day or two ago to make grub-install --grub-probe= actually do something useful | 14:21 |
| slangasek | smoser: what I'm envisioning here is: karmic-uec-i386-vmlinuz-generic-pae <datestamp> <size> UEC kernel for 32-bit computers (linux-image-2.6.31-12-generic-pae 2.6.31-12.80) | 14:21 |
| slangasek | smoser: and the last part can be a link directly to the launchpad page, too | 14:22 |
| smoser | ok. so you're saying the html listing output did the digging for me. | 14:22 |
| smoser | thats fine as long as the digging is done "server side" | 14:22 |
| slangasek | yes, that's the idea | 14:22 |
| soren | cjwatson: Do you think it's something we could have for Karmic? | 14:23 |
| slangasek | if you're just grabbing the image, you have a known filename to grab | 14:23 |
| slangasek | if you want more info, pull up the index and it gives you the details | 14:23 |
| cjwatson | soren: I think so, yes | 14:23 |
| smoser | slangasek, yeah, that works. | 14:24 |
| soren | cjwatson: Cool. Can I assign https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/vmbuilder/+bug/410886 to you, then? | 14:24 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 410886 in vm-builder "VMBuilder doesn't work with grub2" [High,Confirmed] | 14:24 |
| cjwatson | soren: sure thing | 14:24 |
| soren | cjwatson: Awesome. Thanks so much! | 14:24 |
| smoser | the only thing less than ideal for me then is that i'd like for the "flavour" displayed to be '-server' rather than '-generic-pae' | 14:25 |
| smoser | but maybe thats not worth it | 14:25 |
| smoser | ie, i'd like '-server' and '-ec2' versions. but you've solved everything else i can think of. | 14:25 |
| slangasek | smoser: ok, cool; if you want to adjust the build scripts to spit out the new filenames, I can work up the index code | 14:25 |
| slangasek | smoser: hmm, but -generic-pae is the name of the kernel flavor, so listing it as "-server" seems misleading? | 14:26 |
| superm1 | mvo, i've not seen bug 439594 or heard any reports of it so far other than this one, i think that Andreas speculation sounds very sound though | 14:26 |

| smoser | linux-server. | 14:27 |
| smoser | err... in this case it would be -virtual | 14:27 |
| smoser | and that is consistent for i386 and amd64 | 14:27 |

| smoser | slangasek, can you pastebin me a 'tar -S' diff ? | 15:04 |
| alejandro | I'm doing a metadistro | 15:04 |
| smoser | or otherwise send it. | 15:04 |
| alejandro | with Ubuntu 9.04 | 15:05 |
| alejandro | and i want to up gdm | 15:05 |
| slangasek | smoser: $ cd ~vmbuilder/ec2-nightly/automated-ec2-builds/ && bzr diff ? :-) | 15:05 |
| alejandro | what do i have to modify to make it???? | 15:05 |
| alejandro | I guess something like /etc/gdm/gdm.conf\ | 15:06 |
| alejandro | /etc/gdm/gdm.conf | 15:06 |
| alejandro | change tty=7 to tty=4 or to another tty | 15:07 |
| slangasek | smoser: "bzr diff -c -1", now (change committed) | 15:07 |
| smoser | is tar -S incompatible with -z? | 15:07 |
| alejandro | I don't know | 15:08 |
| smoser | oh... i see . you want to pass the rsyncable. | 15:08 |
| slangasek | smoser: right | 15:09 |
| dholbach | any reason why pan is in main? :) | 15:09 |
| alejandro | the gdm is the one in chroot | 15:12 |
| cjwatson | robbiew: you might be glad to hear I found a nice solution to the console logging problem | 15:13 |
| seb128 | dholbach, no, any reason why abiword is in main? | 15:13 |
| robbiew | cjwatson: \o/ | 15:13 |
| cjwatson | robbiew: turns out that all the legacy init scripts have their output redirected to the console by way of /etc/lsb-base-logging.sh (which I knew once, but had forgotten) | 15:14 |
| robbiew | ha! | 15:14 |
| dholbach | seb128: I dunno :) | 15:14 |
| dholbach | was just surprised | 15:14 |
| cjwatson | robbiew: so I make that honour a CONSOLE environment variable, and make /lib/init/splash-functions (owned by usplash and conveniently sourced by /etc/init.d/rc) set that if usplash was ever running on the system | 15:15 |
| seb128 | dholbach, same question about gftp too | 15:15 |
| cjwatson | job done | 15:15 |
| seb128 | dholbach, we have lot of things in main for no good reason I think | 15:15 |
| robbiew | nice! | 15:15 |
| dholbach | seb128: we should purge them :) | 15:15 |
| seb128 | dholbach, demote you mean? | 15:15 |
| dholbach | yeah | 15:16 |
| seb128 | dholbach, I can see user unhappy about dropping those... | 15:16 |
| cjwatson | I've abandoned the idea of releasing vt8 for the moment, since this has the property that you get all the init script output nicely piled up on vt8 for future perusal, independent of console switches | 15:16 |
| dholbach | well, we don't remove them :) | 15:16 |
| seb128 | dholbach, yes fell free | 15:16 |
| robbiew | cjwatson: ok | 15:16 |
| seb128 | ie gftp was in universe it could be synced for example when I looked we only had a langpack change | 15:16 |
| cjwatson | robbiew: there's still a noticeable period between usplash stopping and X starting, but I can't do much about that; as far as I can tell, that represents the time for which gdm is scratching its nose and working out what to do | 15:16 |
| robbiew | cjwatson: np | 15:17 |
| cjwatson | I tried having X start up without shutting usplash down first, but the result of that was a completely hosed console afterwards, since X didn't know what mode to restore | 15:17 |
| cjwatson | (*why* does X still have to be responsible for mode restoration in these days of KMS?) | 15:18 |

| danlii | Pici: ok, thanks... | 15:20 |
| mdz | smoser, not as such, but I have a vague notion that this is what the resize_inode filesystem feature is about | 15:21 |
| cjwatson | resize_inode is for online resize, I don't think it has anything to do with sparse files? | 15:22 |
| smoser | cjwatson, the question is if i create a filesystem for 2G, and give it the default number of inodes for 2G, is there a way to resize it up to 10G and grow the number of inodes | 15:24 |
| smoser | under the presumption (possibly unimportant or wrong) that the actual use of this resized 10G filesystem would result in running out of inodes. | 15:25 |
| smoser | i may just have years old data in my head and this is all just magic now. | 15:25 |
| smoser | there is 'resize_inodes' in mke2fs, and info about reserving space, but i wasn't able to find anything that clearly said "when you resize the fs, you can also increase inodes by...." | 15:26 |
| cjwatson | ah | 15:26 |
| cjwatson | resize_inode actually means that an inode is reserved for the purposes of online resize | 15:26 |
| cjwatson | smoser: my memory is that online resizing adds block groups, which contain their own block and inode tables, but I'm not absolutely sure; a quick test with tune2fs ought to confirm it | 15:29 |
| ArneGoetje | asac: langpacks ran through, you can test the mozilla part. When you are done, ping pitti or me to upload them. | 15:33 |
| smoser | was just doing that. | 15:33 |

| cjwatson | ufw should be quiet | 18:44 |
| cjwatson | when we're in splash mode | 18:44 |

| cjwatson | it using console *at all* creates problems | 18:44 |

| cjwatson | (so Keybuk says) | 18:45 |
| mathiaz | free: how much QA has been done for the new version of smart? | 18:45 |
| free | mathiaz: hey | 18:45 |
| mathiaz | free: IIUC it's not a 1.2 - only backported patches | 18:45 |
| cjwatson | as in, using the console output command requires upstart to do things that cause problems | 18:45 |
| kees | <rant>also, can I get colors and a progress bar back in usplash?</rant> | 18:46 |
| free | mathiaz: the patches that were included are basically the ones from 1.2.0 that affect landscape-client | 18:46 |
| cjwatson | I think it would probably be best to make it use the LSB init script functions (which I think should still be usable in an upstart job) for its output, and then it won't have to do the console output thing | 18:46 |
| free | mathiaz: and that have been subject to the QA process outlined in the LandscapeUpdate document | 18:46 |
| mathiaz | free: right - have the new combination of packages been through the landscape extended SRU process? | 18:46 |
| jdstrand | cjwatson: it is unclear to me whether I should change ufw (again). I tried to comply with a quiet boot, but thought that if loading the firewall caused an error, that is worth mentioning. is this a wrong assumption? | 18:46 |
| cjwatson | jdstrand: it's worth mentioning, but not where ufw is currently mentioning it | 18:47 |
| stgraber | anyone familiar with the way upstart works ? I'm trying to make Karmic work in OpenVZ and for now all I get is a single "init" process and nothing else in the container | 18:47 |

| cjwatson | jdstrand: if usplash is running, it should use one of those usplash OHMYGOD commands to display text on the splash screen | 18:48 |

| mathiaz | free: so I'm going to upload the new packages to intrepid-proposed | 18:48 |
| cjwatson | jdstrand: if usplash is not running, it should put it on tty8 with the rest of the init script output (or at least where the init script output will be once I finish this patch set) | 18:48 |
| mathiaz | free: and ask that the full Landscape SRU process be done agains the package published in -proposed | 18:49 |
| jdstrand | cjwatson: ok, thanks for the explanation | 18:49 |
| cjwatson | jdstrand: this means (a) most users will see it because it will be on the splash screen as an error (b) people won't complain about ugly text-mode text on the screen (c) Keybuk can continue his campaign to get rid of the console command from upstart | 18:49 |
| free | mathiaz: you mean re-doing the QA for intrepid-proposed or also for jaunty-proposed? | 18:49 |
| mathiaz | free: only for intrepid-proposed | 18:49 |
| free | mathiaz: that's fine | 18:49 |
| free | mathiaz: I'll ask andreas to help me with that | 18:50 |

| mathiaz | free: that's why I'd rather have them QAed again - once they're in intrepid-proposed | 18:50 |
| free | mathiaz: sounds fine to me | 18:51 |
| jcastro | mathiaz: any more openweek sessions? | 18:51 |
| mathiaz | jcastro: hm - I'll look at the wiki page again | 18:51 |
| mathiaz | jcastro: when is the deadline? | 18:52 |
| jcastro | mathiaz: like 2 weeks ago. :D | 18:52 |
| jcastro | mathiaz: COB today would be great | 18:52 |
| mathiaz | jcastro: ok - when is the *real* deadline? | 18:52 |
| jcastro | today | 18:52 |
| jcastro | we would like to announce today | 18:52 |
| free | mathiaz: btw the hard-deadline for karmic uploads is like next week? we would still have a few patches for the current karmic version of landscape-client | 18:53 |
| mathiaz | jcastro: ok - I'll have a look at the schedule once I'm done with landscape | 18:53 |
| mathiaz | free: HardFreeze is next Thursday | 18:53 |
| free | mathiaz: okay | 18:53 |
| mathiaz | free: note that only *bug* fixes are accepted now-a-days | 18:53 |
| jcastro | mathiaz: <3, I'll need a short bio from you too, but you can just mail that to me | 18:54 |
| free | mathiaz: yes, they're karmic-specific bug fixes | 18:54 |
| mathiaz | jcastro: "this dude is great - come listen to him! - jcastro" <- would that work? | 18:54 |
| jcastro | yes | 18:54 |
| mathiaz | free: sure | 18:55 |
| kees | Riddell: thanks for fixing skim! That lets me check off "rebuild all ELFs in main since introducing hardening flags" finally. that was the last package. :) | 18:58 |
| LaserJock | anybody happen to know if the current Ubuntu Alternate daily installs? | 19:03 |
| mathiaz | jcastro: only spot left are on Fri, Nov 6 - I won't be available that day | 19:05 |
| jcastro | :( | 19:06 |
| mathiaz | jcastro: so I'll skip this OpenWeek | 19:06 |
| jcastro | ok | 19:06 |
| Amaranth | ugh, I'm going to have to stay awake until 3am to go to this meeting | 19:07 |

| mathiaz | free: all the bugs that are fixed in the intrepid smart sru need to be fixed released in karmic | 19:36 |
| mathiaz | free: could you make sure that the status are correct? | 19:37 |
| free | mathiaz: I'm having a look now.. | 19:37 |
| mathiaz | free: great - I've gone through some of them | 19:37 |
| mathiaz | free: if you mark them as fixed released, please add a statement why this has been the case (eg: included in 1.2-4 which is karmic) | 19:38 |
| free | mathiaz: alright | 19:38 |
| free | mathiaz: I guess most of them don't have a karmic task? like https://bugs.launchpad.net/landscape-client/+bug/268261 | 19:39 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 268261 in landscape-client "add timeout for smart connections" [High,Fix released] | 19:39 |
| free | mathiaz: I don't have the permission to add a karmic task I think | 19:40 |
| mathiaz | free: karmic == development | 19:46 |
| mathiaz | free: for the bug above, you need to make sure it's not incomplete | 19:46 |
| free | mathiaz: so just mark the toplevel item as "Fix released"? | 19:46 |
| mathiaz | free: yes - top-level for smart (Ubuntu) | 19:46 |
| free | cool | 19:46 |
| Turl | hello, can anyone confirm this? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-power-manager/+bug/442378 | 19:47 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 442378 in gnome-power-manager "gnome-power-manager settings have no "on battery" tab" [Undecided,New] | 19:47 |
| beuno | Turl, I can see it just fine | 19:47 |
| apachelogger | asac: I am not sure we should change the string at this point, so I suppose karmic will ship with the free icon... you still need to make the firefox packages conflict&replace the installer :) | 19:47 |
| free | mathiaz: bug 388577 is fixed in the smart package in the jaunty-proposed queue | 19:49 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 388577 in smart "The presence of /var/lib/rpm makes the reporter crash" [Undecided,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/388577 | 19:49 |
| Turl | beuno: are you on AC Power or on battery power? | 19:49 |
| free | mathiaz: Jaunty is now marked as "Fix committed", I'm not sure if I should turn it into "Fix released"? | 19:50 |
| asac | apachelogger: whats the problem with that string? its not a translatable string | 19:50 |
| beuno | Turl, I can see it on both | 19:50 |
| asac | apachelogger: also without that icon you cannot even name it firefox | 19:50 |
| mathiaz | free: nope - jaunty status are fine | 19:50 |
| Turl | beuno: and if you boot from battery power, does g-p-m believe it's on AC power? mine does | 19:51 |
| apachelogger | hm | 19:51 |
| asac | apachelogger: if its not possible we can probably also use "firefox" ... as he said. but i dont see why we couldnt try to get permission to change that string | 19:51 |
| free | mathiaz: okay, so all bugs have the correct status now | 19:51 |
| mathiaz | free: they're fix committed because they've been accepted in -proposed | 19:51 |
| asac | its a trademark string -> no translations | 19:51 |
| apachelogger | asac: which string was he meaning anyway :) | 19:51 |
| free | mathiaz: oh okay | 19:51 |
| mathiaz | free: they will be moved to fix released once they're in -updates | 19:51 |
| beuno | Turl, I need to stop doing what I'm doing now to test that, so I can't say right now :) | 19:51 |
| Turl | asac: by chance, are you talking abot karmic's firefox saying 'shiretoko' on the title? | 19:51 |
| asac | apachelogger: you probably use "firefox" ... and he wants it to be "mozilla firefox" | 19:52 |
| free | mathiaz: makes sense | 19:52 |
| Turl | beuno: right, thanks anyway :) | 19:52 |
| asac | Turl: no. are you running dailies? | 19:52 |
| apachelogger | asac: yeah, well, every occurance of that is translatable | 19:52 |
| Turl | asac: nope | 19:52 |
| apachelogger | desktop file stuff is, the heading is and the description as well | 19:52 |
| free | mathiaz: it's a rather peculiar way of using the "Fix committed" term :) | 19:52 |
| Turl | asac: Installed: 3.5.3+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu3 | 19:52 |
| mathiaz | free: the important part here is that bugs fixed in an SRU have to be fixed in the development release (*first* usually) | 19:53 |
| apachelogger | asac: so changing the string basically fuzzyfies about all strings | 19:53 |
| apachelogger | s/string/strings | 19:53 |
| mathiaz | free: this is why pitti was asking for the status in karmic | 19:53 |
| free | mathiaz: yes, that was clear to me | 19:53 |
| free | mathiaz: I didn't introduce anything that wasn't already in karmic, both for jaunty and intrepid | 19:54 |
| mathiaz | free: having the bug status set correclty helps the sru team | 19:54 |
| asac | apachelogger: do you have the screens still i can look at? | 19:54 |
| asac | mine are gone in the backup archive :/ | 19:54 |
| Turl | asac: any idea why it says 'shiretoko' ? | 19:54 |
| free | mathiaz: thanks for the explanations, I'll remember it for the next time | 19:54 |
| apachelogger | asac: http://aplg.kollide.net/images/snapshot019.png | 19:55 |
| asac | Turl: what does it say in help -> about? | 19:55 |
| asac | apachelogger: yes. so you cannot use the string that way | 19:56 |
| asac | it suggest that its a Kubuntu Firefox | 19:56 |
| asac | and you cannot use the free icon in combination with the trademark | 19:56 |
| Turl | asac: Firefox Version 3.5.3 Mozilla Firefox for Ubuntu canonical - 1.0 .... | 19:56 |
| asac | Firefox installer would have been fine | 19:56 |
| asac | or Mozilla Firefox installer | 19:56 |
| asac | i will cehck with him if its still ok | 19:57 |
| apachelogger | hum hum | 19:57 |
| Turl | (btw, why is canonical on lowercase?) | 19:57 |
| asac | apachelogger: in worst case we can export pos and sed it and import | 19:57 |
| apachelogger | asac: IMHO that would be best case though, Kubuntu apps get rarely translated as it is | 19:58 |
| asac | apachelogger: yes. so checking the translation status in launchpad would be a good first step | 19:58 |
| asac | like: how many translations are there already etc. | 19:58 |
| apachelogger | asac: https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/karmic/+source/kubuntu-firefox-installer/+pots/kubuntu-firefox-installer | 20:00 |

| ubottu | Launchpad bug 444176 in firefox-3.5 "firefox's window title says "Shiretoko" and not "Firefox"" [Undecided,New] | 20:00 |
| asac | Turl: you probably tried witha fresh profile? | 20:01 |
| Turl | asac: nope, I didn't - let me try that | 20:02 |
| asac | thx | 20:02 |
| Turl | mhm, a newly created profile says 'Mozilla Firefox' | 20:03 |
| asac | Turl: can you grep for Shiretoko through the .mozilla folder? | 20:04 |
| Turl | sure asac | 20:04 |
| Turl | Binary file .mozilla/firefox/8l8jtiya.default/extensions/langpack-es-AR@firefox.mozilla.org/chrome/es-AR.jar matches | 20:05 |
| Turl | Binary file .mozilla/firefox/8l8jtiya.default/formhistory.sqlite matches | 20:05 |
| Turl | Binary file .mozilla/firefox/8l8jtiya.default/places.sqlite matches | 20:05 |
| asac | Turl: can you still reproduce by using the original profile? | 20:06 |
| asac | back that up so it stays reproducible | 20:06 |
| Turl | mhm, how can I test that? | 20:06 |
| Turl | you mean, mv .mozilla and relaunch firefox? | 20:06 |
| asac | Turl: what did you do to do a new profile? | 20:06 |
| Turl | asac: closed firefox, firefox -P and create one there | 20:07 |
| asac | Turl: yes. so run firefox -P again and choose the default profile | 20:07 |
| Turl | yeah, the default one is my main profile, the one that says Shiretoko | 20:08 |
| Turl | I'm using it now again | 20:08 |
| asac | Turl: so backup your .mozilla directory. i will ask further things on bug later. now dinner | 20:11 |
| Turl | asac: moving .mozilla to some other place and then opening firefox makes it work fine (title says 'mozilla firefox') | 20:12 |
| asac | Turl: i just wanted you to back it up ... so when we start trying things we can still keep reproducing when things are suddenly fixed | 20:13 |
| Turl | ok | 20:13 |
| Turl | asac: mhm, I rm'ed a langpack extension on the extensions folder in my profile, and it now says Mozilla Firefox | 20:15 |
| asac | Turl: where did you get that langpack from? | 20:15 |
| asac | anyway out for a while bb i 30 minutes or so | 20:15 |
| Turl | asac: I guess from mozilla's ftp, as karmic firefox is in english now :/ | 20:15 |
| Turl | asac: from here iirc: ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/nightly/latest-firefox-3.5.x-l10n/ | 20:17 |

| soren | Are people generally converting their bzr branches to the 2a format? It seems a bit early since only Karmic ships bzr > 2.0, but the package branches are in that format, and they're kind of hard to work with, if the upstream project is using an older format, for instance. | 21:36 |
| LaserJock | yeah, it would be nice to have some general guidelines for what we're supposed to do | 21:39 |
| jdong | soren: I've been doing so; though the 2a format I should point out is supported by earlier releases too | 21:41 |
| jdong | though possibly not as stable... | 21:41 |
| soren | jdong: Oh, really? How far back? | 21:41 |
| jdong | 1.16-ish? | 21:43 |
| soren | Aha! | 21:43 |
| soren | ./repository.py: 'Bazaar repository format 2a (needs bzr 1.16 or later)\n', | 21:43 |
| * soren rmadisons | 21:43 | |
| soren | So as far back as... <drum roll> | 21:44 |
| jdong | soren: well presumably Ubuntu bzr users would be taking advantage of the Bazaar PPA anyway | 21:44 |
| jdong | I'd be more concerned about other distro users | 21:44 |
| * soren taps fingers | 21:44 | |
| soren | I don't use the bzr ppa. Never have. | 21:44 |
| soren | I don't expect other people to either. | 21:44 |
| LaserJock | it'd be good to know how it'd effect Debian | 21:45 |
| soren | Ah. Jaunty is 1.13, so Karmic is the first to support it. | 21:45 |
| LaserJock | testing has 1.17 at least | 21:46 |
| soren | Yeah. | 21:46 |
| jdong | bad assumption about the bzr PPA then :D | 21:46 |
| jdong | *revises* presumably bzr users are used to the 90 bazillion format changes per second of their favorite DVCS! | 21:46 |
| jdong | (haha love you, bzr devs; it's still my favorite!) | 21:46 |
| ScottK | bzr 2.0 is a no change backport for Jaunty. Just needs some rdpends testing. | 21:50 |
