| PovAddict | does anyone know what other distros use apport, if any? | 00:23 |
| pitti | PovAddict: OpenSUSE does | 00:24 |
| slangasek | pitti: does that mean the solution is known and in progress? | 00:25 |
| pitti | slangasek: not yet, I'm afraid, it basically turned up yesterday | 00:26 |

| Notch-1 | news about the loop module? still =y? | 00:34 |
| pitti | mdke: yes, it will need a langpack rebuild to pick up the new gnome help files | 00:35 |
| pitti | slangasek, mdke: got a DSL reconnect (I really ought to sleep at this time..), did you answer? | 00:35 |
| pitti | slangasek: hm, the .deb is 450 kB; what do you mean exactly with "baloon"? | 00:35 |
| slangasek | pitti: apt says upgrading ubuntu-docs here will take up 64MB more space | 00:36 |
| pitti | mdke: ignore the "we must fix symlinking" bit, I was confused; fdupes is unrelated to translations | 00:36 |
| pitti | ?!? | 00:36 |
| PovAddict | wow, 446395 looks serious | 00:37 |
| slangasek | pitti: installed-size: 169084 vs. 231408 | 00:37 |
| * pitti looks at debdiff ubuntu-docs_9.10.9_all.deb ubuntu-docs_9.10.10_all.deb | 00:38 | |
| slangasek | pitti: hah - something is calculating installed-size *before* pruning files from the tree (!) | 00:38 |
| slangasek | (AFAICT) | 00:38 |
| slangasek | hmm, no | 00:38 |
| pitti | slangasek: it seems the new version replaced all the relative symlinks with absolute ones | 00:39 |
| slangasek | pitti: which shouldn't change the package size at all, really | 00:39 |
| pitti | well, slightly | 00:39 |
| pitti | but certainly not in the MB range | 00:39 |
| PovAddict | not much after compression | 00:39 |
| PovAddict | how many symlinks are we talking about? | 00:40 |
| Notch-1 | PovAddict: only if you count on your screensaver for your security, luckly | 00:40 |
| slangasek | pitti: right, in both cases the installed-size is way overestimated - the actual unpacked size is 17-19MB, the installed-size figures are > 160MB. I think it's being calculated before the tree is trimmed | 00:41 |
| pitti | PovAddict: 5270 | 00:41 |
| slangasek | pitti: relative and absolute symlinks should still take up exactly one block on disk, surely? | 00:41 |
| PovAddict | oh true, blocks... yes, it should take the same space | 00:41 |
| pitti | slangasek: right; I just purged and reinstalled ubuntu-docs, and df says before/after is a difference of 20.9 MB | 00:41 |
| PovAddict | unless you have a crazy-long path somewhere | 00:41 |
| pitti | slangasek: uncompressed yes, just the .deb gets a tad bigger (not much presumably) | 00:42 |
| slangasek | pitti: right - apt is reporting the installed size | 00:42 |
| pitti | ok, so I think this is a red herring | 00:42 |
| slangasek | which shouldn't differ for absolute vs. relative symlinks | 00:42 |
| slangasek | pitti: yeah; it's a bug in its own right though | 00:42 |
| slangasek | I'll report it | 00:42 |

| slangasek | ArneGoetje: apparently not - could I ask you to file a quick bug report requesting their removal and explaining (briefly) why they should go away, and I can knock them out of the archive? | 01:53 |

| ArneGoetje | slangasek: against "ubuntu"? | 01:53 |
| slangasek | ArneGoetje: against one of the source packages | 01:54 |
| ArneGoetje | slangasek: ok | 01:54 |

| slangasek | spotter: um | 01:57 |

| slangasek | TheMuso: ok; everything I see here currently tells me we should drop the dep from the meta packages and pull in a new upstream version of plugins-bad, because the current upstream version of schroedinger doesn't even have the plugin in the source anymore | 06:26 |

| slangasek | slomo: hi, you seem to have synced the new upstream version of schroedinger which drops the gst plugin, but there doesn't seem to be any work done on getting the new upstream version of gst-plugins-bad in that takes it over? | 06:35 |
| hyperair | hmm it seems that banshee hasn't been seeing karma support for quite some time | 06:39 |

| hyperair | slomo: ah right thanks | 06:46 |
| slomo | hyperair: good work on updating banshee btw :) does it already use the external hyena? | 06:47 |

| hyperair | slomo: no it doesn't. that's still stuck in binary new | 06:47 |
| hyperair | slomo: also, i don't see anything in the build system that looks for hyena | 06:48 |

| slangasek | mvo: 451428> hrm, that's not a bug in grub, that's a bug in whatever called grub to be installed... | 09:04 |
| mvo | slangasek: so you think he is installing kernels from some location that is not ubuntu? | 09:06 |
| simon-o | Hobbsee, mvo: Yes it is. Right now the java plugin is installed on amd64 but not on i386 which is inconsistent. I would like to keep the plugin in u-r-e until the open source plugin is stable. | 09:06 |
| slangasek | mvo: no, I think something removed grub-pc from his system and replaced it with grub on upgrade | 09:06 |

| pitti | evand: well, of course the package hook could do some magic to pick up the related .crash reports, but if you just attach them you wouldn't get auto-duplication and retracing | 10:25 |

| ogra | Keybuk, moo ... | 11:45 |
| ogra | Keybuk, why did you move the framebuffer hack in usplash into the C code ? i would like to change the script to use fb1 instead of fb0 (my external monitor with way higher resolution) moving the code into C means i need to recompile the whole thing | 11:47 |
| lool | ogra: i dont think the language of the implementation should matter; the issue is rather with usplash not handling multiple screens which is well known | 12:07 |
| sladen | lool: urm. you're supporting the hardcoding of configuration options? (!) | 12:08 |
| sladen | lool: hardcoding a setting that might need changing is different from simply ensuring it has a good default | 12:09 |
| lool | sladen: fb0 was not configurable either | 12:10 |
| ogra | it was just easier to change in the shellscript ... it wasnt meant to be configurable at all though | 12:10 |
| lool | sladen: ogra's critic was that he couldn't update the /usr/share/initramfs-tools script to set fb1 easily as a hack to workaround usplash picking the wrong res | 12:11 |
| lool | The real bug is usplash handling of multiple screen | 12:11 |
| ogra | indeed | 12:11 |
| ogra | well, deeper even i guess | 12:11 |
| lool | In fact we shouldn't be reading the size from /sys but just let bogl figure out the best size | 12:11 |
| ogra | the kernel seems to pick the res for my laptop LCD in kms | 12:11 |
| lool | But that's orthogonal to fb0 versus fb1 | 12:11 |
| ogra | instead of using the external one | 12:12 |
| cjwatson | putting it in C code let us simplify the upstart job quite a bit | 12:14 |
| cjwatson | if it needs to be configurable for now, have the C code read it from usplash.conf | 12:14 |
| * sladen blantently assumed the script in question was under /etc already | 12:16 | |
| ogra | cjwatson, it doesnt need to | 12:18 |

| tkamppeter | So probably we can upload 1.4.1-8 today and it will get built. | 13:26 |
| tkamppeter | pitti: It is unusual for a package investigating the build server (reading IP, searching for printers and available PPDs, ...) during build. | 13:27 |
| slangasek | tseliot: I'm looking at this nvidia-common bug report and the changes, and I don't see how this could ever work... the script you're calling this from is invoking debconf, which means stdout of this script is *always* attached to the debconf frontend - flushing output doesn't help anything? | 13:29 |
| tseliot | slangasek: I can't reproduce the problem here. The script won't crash though, which is a big win. | 13:32 |
| tseliot | slangasek: if the script gets garbage instead of the proper output it won't give it to debconf as a reply | 13:33 |
| davmor2 | mvo: yup | 13:38 |
| slangasek | tseliot: I really can't figure out why you've gone with this solution, or which fd it is you think has the garbage on it (which is generally confusing enough when debconf is involved...) | 13:39 |
| davmor2 | mvo: stock + proposed for the adept update | 13:39 |
| slangasek | tseliot: why should nvidia-detector ever need to be run in a loop? | 13:39 |
| davmor2 | mvo: sorry forgot + updates | 13:40 |
| slangasek | tseliot: nvidia-detector doesn't appear to read from stdin; if it did, you could work around this with LATEST=$(nvidia-detector < /dev/null); and the stdout of nvidia-detector is already being captured | 13:40 |
| tseliot | slangasek: if all goes well, it is called once, otherwise try again and, if this goes wrong, just give up | 13:42 |
| slangasek | yes, why do you think it should *ever* need to be called more than once? | 13:42 |
| tseliot | slangasek: no, it doesn't read from stdin | 13:42 |
| slangasek | this doesn't seem to have anything to do with the bug= | 13:42 |
| slangasek | I'm not going to accept something I don't understand during final freeze... | 13:43 |
| tseliot | slangasek: as you can see in the bug report, it can happen that my script doesn't get the output of nvidia-detector because dkms leaves something like " * Running DKMS auto installation service for kernel 2.6.27.2" on stdout | 13:45 |
| tseliot | and LATEST will be assigned that value | 13:46 |
| slangasek | tseliot: eh, I don't see that at all from the bug report, or from the code | 13:46 |
| tseliot | slangasek: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-common/+bug/292606/comments/4 | 13:46 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 292606 in nvidia-common "dkms - error when installing custom kernel" [Medium,New] | 13:46 |
| tseliot | slangasek: what I know for sure is that nvidia-detector can give print "nvidia-glx-$VER" or "none" | 13:47 |
| slangasek | tseliot: that shows the bufferred stdin being sent *to debconf*, not preventing reading the correct output from nivdia-detector | 13:47 |
| tseliot | slangasek: how? | 13:49 |
| tseliot | that's the point | 13:50 |
| slangasek | tseliot: the parent process has already started the debconf frontend before calling this script; it looks like the garbage has already been sent to the debconf frontend before the nvidia-common script has ever been called, and nvidia-common is just the first process to read back the resulting error code from the pipe | 13:52 |
| slangasek | (i.e., I agree with Mike Stroyan's analysis in the bug) | 13:52 |
| cjwatson | oh, yes, this is like malloc debugging | 13:52 |
| cjwatson | it's often the next thing along that gets to encounter the problem | 13:52 |
| === marjomercado is now known as marjo | ||
| tseliot | slangasek: ok, so are you suggesting that I simply prevent the script from failing without trying again? | 13:54 |
| tseliot | or do you have a different solution in mind? | 13:55 |
| slangasek | tseliot: yes - and that the way to do this is by fixing dkms, not nvidia-common | 13:55 |
| slangasek | what's starting debconf, though? | 13:56 |
| tseliot | slangasek: ouch, again. superm1 has a few objections though (to fixing that in dkms) and this is why I tried to deal with the problem in nvidia-common | 13:56 |
| cjwatson | kernel postinst? | 13:56 |
| slangasek | cjwatson: not that I see | 13:56 |
| tseliot | yep ^^ | 13:56 |
| cjwatson | hmm, it used to I think, obviously no longer | 13:57 |
| tseliot | /etc/kernel/postinst.d/ | 13:57 |
| cjwatson | 2.6.27.7-k8 though, that's kind of old | 13:57 |
| cjwatson | and looks custom | 13:57 |
| tseliot | nvidia-common installs the script there | 13:57 |
| tseliot | this is meant to help users who dist-upgrade with apt from the command line | 13:58 |
| tseliot | as Update Manager already uses nvidia-common to get rid of obsolete drivers | 13:58 |
| cjwatson | kernel image packages generated using make-kpkg still load the debconf confmodule in the postinst | 13:59 |
| slangasek | right | 13:59 |
| slangasek | so kernel postinst starts the frontend, dkms inherits the fd and throws garbage at it, nvidia-common catches it | 14:00 |
| tseliot | yes, it could be | 14:00 |
| cjwatson | and while Ubuntu images of that same vintage apparently didn't, /etc/kernel/postinst.d/ in general probably has to assume that stdout might be debconf | 14:01 |
| slangasek | so this is a dkms bug, and superm1 will just have to accept that :) | 14:01 |
| davmor2 | mvo: I've commented on the bug as to what I had done. | 14:03 |
| tseliot | slangasek: ok, so in the mean time I'll modify nvidia-common so that it's capable of detecting garbage but doesn't call nvidia-detector more than once. Right? | 14:03 |
| slangasek | tseliot: that sounds better to me, yes - how are you going to detect the garbage? | 14:04 |
| tseliot | i.e. I'll get rid of the while loop | 14:04 |
| mvo | davmor2: thanks, I have a look | 14:05 |
| slangasek | cjwatson: won't this garbage cause all subsequent debconf transactions to be out-of-step, unless you know exactly how many lines to read back from the confmodule? | 14:05 |
| mvo | davmor2: I had it running in my auto-upgrade testing setup and it seems to be doing fine there, but it might have a slightly different setup | 14:05 |
| davmor2 | mvo: I'll start it back up from fresh. I'm wondering if it pulled in something else from proposed that it should of so I'll double check | 14:06 |
| cjwatson | slangasek: yes | 14:07 |
| cjwatson | the solution to garbage on debconf's input is *not to send it there in the first place* | 14:07 |
| cjwatson | there's no reliable way to recover | 14:07 |
| slangasek | tseliot: ^^ so basically, once dkms has broken things, you cannot reliably recover and ensure you get correct behavior out of the debconf commands | 14:07 |
| slangasek | so I wouldn't even try - this should get fixed in dkms | 14:07 |
| tseliot | slangasek: I know that nvidia-detector can print either "nvidia-glx-$VER" or "none". So if VER=${1#nvidia-glx-*} isn't either only made up of digits or "none" then I know that something went wrong. Furthermore I DKMS print strings which begin with "*" hence this shoul help a bit too: VER=${VER%\**}. | 14:08 |
| slangasek | tseliot: no, because *that's not where you'll be seeing the error* | 14:08 |
| cjwatson | dkms is sending those strings to debconf, not to you | 14:08 |
| cjwatson | as I understand it | 14:09 |
| mvo | Riddell: I'm just looking at a apturl kde issue and get "from PyKDE4.kdeui import *" -> "ImportError: No module named PyKDE4.kdeui" ? I assume this works fine for you? any idea what python package or lib is missing that makes it fail? | 14:09 |
| slangasek | tseliot: nvidia-common will abort before you ever get around to calling nvidia-detector | 14:09 |
| tseliot | cjwatson: I think we all agree on what "the solution" is :-) | 14:09 |
| cjwatson | debconf is entitled to respond to out-of-spec input basically any way it pleases | 14:09 |
| slangasek | tseliot: it will abort with the first db_set call | 14:09 |
| tseliot | cjwatson: I give debconf the reply with this, no? db_subst nvidia-common/obsolete-driver latest $LATEST | 14:09 |
| tseliot | well, it's not entirely correct | 14:10 |
| cjwatson | tseliot: once debconf's input is out of step with its output, all bets are off | 14:10 |
| slangasek | tseliot: your debconf input and output streams are already out of sync by that point because of the extra output dkms has helpfully inserted | 14:10 |
| cjwatson | you'll be getting the return from some previous thing each time you call db_* | 14:10 |
| tseliot | :-/ | 14:10 |
| cjwatson | at best | 14:10 |
| lool | ENODOKO | 14:11 |
| slangasek | tseliot: so I'm going ahead and rejecting this nvidia-common upload, since it doesn't actually fix the real problem | 14:11 |
| tseliot | cjwatson, slangasek: ok, so you're basically saying that there may be nothing I can do about it | 14:11 |
| slangasek | (in fact, users who are running custom kernels would still get the abort) | 14:11 |
| cjwatson | tseliot: as the problem has been described to me, I don't think there is, no | 14:12 |
| tseliot | if so, then ok, reject the upload | 14:12 |
| cjwatson | BTW I think the reason this breaks is partly due to an infelicity in the way that the perl and shell confmodules differ | 14:13 |
| tseliot | cjwatson, slangasek: some users reported that this works: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/27310838/dkms.patch | 14:13 |
| cjwatson | I don't think they were ever designed to be nested in this way | 14:13 |
| tseliot | oh | 14:14 |
| slangasek | cjwatson: right, the perl client only redirects fds if the shell client is called first, heh | 14:15 |
| cjwatson | tseliot: if updated to a current version, I think that ought to work | 14:15 |
| mterry_ | Keybuk, have you been getting bugs that look like a bunch of postinst failures with "Failed to connect to socket /com/ubuntu/upstart: Connection refused" messages?

| slangasek | mterry_: in a chroot? | 14:15 |
| cjwatson | though counterintuitively, sourcing the shell confmodule in /etc/kernel/postinst.d/dkms might also do it :-) | 14:15 |
| mvo | mterry_: I see something similar in #451556 | 14:15 |
| cjwatson | but I haven't tested that, and it's possible it won't - the fd redirections are kind of twisty here | 14:15 |

| cjwatson | slangasek: surely 3>&1 1>&2 | 14:25 |
| tseliot | heh | 14:25 |
| cjwatson | or am I missing something? | 14:25 |
| slangasek | let's assume I am | 14:27 |
| slangasek | and find more productive pursuits :-) | 14:27 |
| bdrung | james_w: i want to talk about bug #446856 with you. | 14:27 |

| cjwatson | yes, I had enough of debconf file descriptor mapping to last me a lifetime when implementing debconf-apt-progress and predecessors | 14:27 |
| bdrung | james_w: do you agree that those outdated packages should be removed? | 14:29 |
| === dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates | ||
| slangasek | bdrung: all NBS (not built from source) binary packages are always removed before release | 14:33 |

| slangasek | bdrung: ah | 14:35 |
| slangasek | bdrung: please add tasks to that bug for the source packages you want removed | 14:35 |
| bdrung | slangasek: k, done | 14:37 |
| pitti | Riddell: I'm confused by the arora upload; it has an inline patch to src/arora.desktop which changes translations, but then debian/patches/kubuntu_06_fix_desktop_translations.diff | 14:49 |
| pitti | Riddell: which changes the same thing back again | 14:49 |
| pitti | Riddell: ah, sorry, other way round: the patch is shippe,d but additionally applied inline | 14:49 |
| pitti | won't that fail? | 14:49 |
| pitti | apw: your linux meta upload> I don't think that this syntax actually works: Depends: foo [i386]; AFAIR, architecture specific stuff only works for build-depends | 14:51 |
| pitti | apw: I could be wrong, of course, but was this tested? | 14:52 |
| slangasek | pitti: it works when the package is architecture-dependent; dpkg-gencontrol parses it out | 14:52 |
| slangasek | (I've just accepted that upload, fwiw) | 14:52 |
| pitti | ah, great; that was the missing bit | 14:52 |
| slangasek | (dpkg-gencontrol parses it out when it's Arch: all, too, that's just not what you want :-) | 14:53 |
| * pitti closes the bug, it has a missing # in changelog | 14:53 | |
| pitti | slangasek: thanks, learned something again; but at this time I better ask twice | 14:54 |
| apw | pitti, yeah i built it in PPA and it seemed to do what i wanted | 14:54 |
| apw | slangasek, thanks for the explanation :) | 14:54 |

| mvo | ArneGoetje: is bug #452065 caused by language packs not having apturl translations? does that need manual hinting? | 15:02 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 452065 in apturl "Missing translations in the ui" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/452065 | 15:02 |
| evand | it will never properly snow here :-/ | 15:02 |
| ArneGoetje | mvo: looking | 15:02 |
| torkel | pitti: lucky you. We still haven't got any snow... | 15:03 |
| ion | I wish it were summer already. :-( | 15:04 |
| torkel | ion: we are still on summer time, so per definition it is summer? :-) | 15:05 |
| ArneGoetje | mvo: we have one apturl template in Rosetta with 33 msgids... is this correct? | 15:06 |
| kirkland | ttx: back from running now | 15:07 |
| dpm | mvo, ArneGoetje, I've also noticed that. It seems that translations from the apturl.ui file are not extracted and merged into the POT template, if I'm not mistaken | 15:08 |
| ArneGoetje | dpm: that was my guess | 15:09 |
| dpm | python-distutils-extra bug? | 15:09 |
| seb128 | when will the karmic language pack be rolled? | 15:12 |
| seb128 | ie is it still worth doing changes on launchpad for karmic today? | 15:12 |
| ArneGoetje | seb128: full-export from Rosetta tomorrow | 15:12 |
| davmor2 | mvo: right running again now | 15:13 |
| ArneGoetje | seb128: today is translation deadline for non-language-pack translations. Langpack translation deadline is on 22nd. | 15:13 |
| seb128 | 22nd doesn't seem realistic | 15:14 |
| seb128 | that's the candidate image day | 15:14 |
| seb128 | and it takes a while to roll the language packs no? | 15:14 |
| cjwatson | we've always landed the final langpacks post-RC | 15:15 |
| ArneGoetje | seb128: these dates have been decided with the release team. :) The ones which get exported from rosetta tomorrow will go onto the RC images. | 15:15 |
| cjwatson | even though in principle that's suboptimal | 15:15 |
| cjwatson | but it's been that way since language packs were implemented ... | 15:15 |
| Riddell | pitti: my fail on arora, I'll reject | 15:16 |
| seb128 | oh ok | 15:16 |
| superm1 | slangasek, tseliot my understanding is that nvidia-common is starting the debconf frontend, not the kernel postinst. i see no references in a linux-image postinst to debconf. | 15:16 |
| slangasek | superm1: incorrect | 15:16 |
| pitti | Riddell: ok | 15:16 |
| slangasek | superm1: if nvidia-common were starting it, dkms wouldn't have an fd to it and wouldn't be able to pollute it; this is a bug that only affects users who have custom kernel packages built with make-kpkg | 15:17 |
| superm1 | slangasek, so custom kernel's postinst are what's spawning debconf? | 15:17 |
| slangasek | yes | 15:17 |
| superm1 | well that's just plain silly. why don't custom kernels use the same postinst as regular ones | 15:18 |
| slangasek | because the regular ones use a hand-hacked debian/ tree that can't be applied at will, people use make-kpkg instead when they want to generate custom kernel packages | 15:18 |
| superm1 | hm. then that means that an artificial requirement needs to be added to stay away from certain fd's for anything in kernel postinst | 15:20 |
| slangasek | just the one fd :) | 15:20 |
| superm1 | is there any way to to query if debconf *has* been loaded and polluted fds? | 15:20 |
| slangasek | yes, you can check for $DEBIAN_HAS_FRONTEND; but see my comment in the bug, you shouldn't be making noise on stdout anyway | 15:21 |
| superm1 | well i'll be willing to check for that environment variable and only redirect in that situation, but I'd rather not change general behavior | 15:23 |
| slangasek | the general behavior is inconsistent with the expectations of Ubuntu Policy, and not just in the case that debconf is running | 15:24 |
| seb128 | jdstrand, hi, could you look at bug #452057? | 15:27 |

| seb128 | it's due to the apparmor profile, it's probably easy to fix but I'm still busy with other karmic things | 15:27 |
| jdstrand | seb128: I'll fix it | 15:28 |
| seb128 | jdstrand, thanks! | 15:28 |
| jdstrand | seb128: sure, np | 15:28 |
| tordne | hi I had some problems with AppArmor, it doesn't want to load, i found out while installing mysql | 15:30 |
| jdstrand | tordne: apparmor doesn't want to load? | 15:31 |
| LaserJock | anybody know off-hand what a "normal" size for including a language on the CD is? ~10MB? | 15:31 |
| tordne | yes, I tried to load it again /etc/init.d/apparmor start | 15:32 |
| tordne | but it gives me the same answer | 15:32 |
| tordne | loading failed | 15:32 |
| jdstrand | tordne: can you paste the output somewhere? | 15:32 |
| dholbach | Keybuk: I don't know much about vserver internals (vserver-linux.org), but I have upstart-vserver problems with the upgrade to karmic: reboot won't work anymore, start/stop/restart <service> won't work, etc. | 15:33 |
| dholbach | "Failed to connect to socket /com/ubuntu/upstart: Connection refused" | 15:33 |
| tordne | root@Cynara:/etc/init.d# ./apparmor start * Starting AppArmor * Loading AppArmor module... [fail] | 15:33 |
| tordne | it doesn't say much | 15:34 |
| tordne | if looked in all the logfiles but i didn't find anything that talked about apparmor | 15:34 |
| jdstrand | tordne: what kernel? | 15:34 |
| jdstrand | tordne: cat /proc/version_signature | 15:35 |
| tordne | 2.6.29-1-netbook | 15:35 |
| tordne | i'm using eeebuntu | 15:35 |
| jdstrand | tordne: is that a custom kernel? | 15:35 |
| tordne | that's why the netbook | 15:35 |
| ttx | kirkland: ok | 15:35 |
| dholbach | Keybuk: some services already removed old style init scripts (rsyslog, cron, probably others too) | 15:35 |
| jdstrand | tordne: it seems apparmor is not enabled in the kernel. | 15:37 |
| kirkland | ttx: new iso's ready? | 15:37 |
| jdstrand | tordne: you can try adding to the kernel command line 'security=apparmor', or apparmor.enabled=1. I don't remember when the kernel command line changed | 15:37 |
| ttx | kirkland: the current ISO only contains the euca_rootwrap | 15:38 |
| ttx | kirkland: the idea was to have a spin which just contains that fix, for regression testing | 15:38 |
| jdstrand | tordne: you might check your /boot/config-2.6.29-1-netbook and make sure apparmor is built at all | 15:38 |
| ttx | kirkland: but I uploaded a newer eucalyptus that you should test | 15:38 |
| kirkland | ttx: okay | 15:39 |
| ttx | kirkland: so don't hesitate to ask for a respin if you want to test it from installer | 15:39 |
| ttx | kirkland: note that I only fixed the "wrong IP for cloud" issue, not really the "adding a linklocal address breaks things" part of it | 15:39 |
| ttx | kirkland: since I don't really understand what gets broken | 15:40 |
| kirkland | ttx: yeah, i don't totally understand it either | 15:40 |
| kirkland | ttx: but i have a feeling that ip address is going to cause us months and months and months of hurt | 15:40 |
| ttx | kirkland: but hey, I don't really understand the need for that address anyway :) | 15:40 |
| ttx | kirkland: doing it link local is the right way to do it though, since it's a non-routable address | 15:41 |
| mathiaz | kirkland: I thought about that | 15:41 |
| ttx | kirkland: so basically it boils down to "why do you need that extra address for" | 15:41 |
| mathiaz | the way to fix it is to add a virtual interface | 15:42 |
| mathiaz | the same way as avahi does | 15:42 |
| kirkland | mathiaz: yeah, that's what I was thinking | 15:42 |
| kirkland | mathiaz: there should be a separate interface for this address | 15:42 |
| mathiaz | IIRC you always have a eth0.avahi network interface | 15:42 |
| kirkland | mathiaz: right | 15:42 |
| kirkland | mathiaz: have you attempted this yet? | 15:42 |
| mathiaz | kirkland: the same for the private network | 15:42 |
| mathiaz | kirkland: nope - I got that idea overnight | 15:42 |
| ttx | kirkland, mathiaz: in all cases that doesn't invalidate the fix I committed, the conffile should only look at scope global addresses anyway. | 15:43 |
| mathiaz | kirkland: upstream does an ip add addr or something | 15:43 |
| mathiaz | ttx: right | 15:43 |
| tordne | jdstrand : I look in the boot file and didn't find anything about apparmor | 15:43 |
| mathiaz | ttx: but you may run into issue if you have multiple global addresses | 15:43 |
| mathiaz | ttx: which is what I've noticed on one of my cluster | 15:43 |
| ttx | mathiaz: you don't really run into issues. You just pick the first one arbitrarily | 15:44 |
| mathiaz | ttx: I wasn't using public IP - only private addressing | 15:44 |
| jdstrand | tordne: you'll need to file a bug with eeebuntu then | 15:44 |
| Riddell | mvo: sorry missed your message about apturl, pykde is currently broken, I'm looking into it | 15:44 |
| jdstrand | tordne: or run a custom kernel | 15:44 |
| tordne | jdstrand : how can i add security=apparmor', or apparmor.enabled=1. to the kernel command line | 15:44 |
| kirkland | mathiaz: ack, i saw multiple global addresses too | 15:44 |
| apw | pitti, we seem to have a bug in suspend/resume handling (one which i think has been around for a while) if you suspend with AC in and remove AC and resume we always suspend one more time ... i've checked that when it occurs pm-utils is called 2x so it and the kernel are in the clear ... whats the next layer devicekit-power ? | 15:45 |
| ttx | kirkland: for euca_rootwrap and the changes I uploaded, my basic testing works. Didn't install it from ISO though (since there is no ISO yet) | 15:45 |
| pitti | apw: I think I have a fix for that in unapproved | 15:45 |
| kirkland | ttx: mathiaz: i was going to rework that hack to pick the address that's in the same subnet as y our default route | 15:45 |
| jdstrand | tordne: if you don't have these lines in your /boot/config... file, then it doesn't matter: | 15:45 |
| pitti | apw: are you on amd64? | 15:45 |
| jdstrand | CONFIG_SECURITY_APPARMOR=y | 15:45 |
| jdstrand | CONFIG_SECURITY_APPARMOR_NETWORK=y | 15:45 |
| jdstrand | CONFIG_SECURITY_APPARMOR_BOOTPARAM_VALUE=1 | 15:45 |
| kirkland | ttx: mathiaz: that requires some ip math, though | 15:45 |
| apw | pitti, i am seeing it on i386 | 15:45 |
| pitti | apw: I meant, I have amd64 .debs here, ready to try | 15:46 |
| jdstrand | tordne: the last one could be '0' | 15:46 |
| mathiaz | kirkland: well - if upstream would use virtual interface it would be easier | 15:46 |
| apw | pitti, ahh ... right | 15:46 |
| kirkland | ttx: good to hear that euca_rootwrap didn't break our back | 15:46 |
| pitti | apw: I was debugging that yesterday, and used those for verifying | 15:46 |
| mathiaz | kirkland: one eth0.avahi for 169.X | 15:46 |
| kirkland | mathiaz: absolutely, agree | 15:46 |
| pitti | apw: otherwise I can just push it to my PPA | 15:46 |
| ttx | kirkland: maybe it's late to change that logic more. I think its acceptable to ask the user to edit that /etc file anyway | 15:46 |
| kirkland | mathiaz: this needs to be fixed at the address configuration level | 15:46 |
| mathiaz | kirkland: and one eth0.eucapriv for the private address | 15:46 |
| kirkland | mathiaz: grepping and awking it is purely a hack | 15:46 |
| apw | pitti, if me testing would help then do ... else i can just wait :) | 15:46 |
| pitti | apw: pushed to desktop PPA now, I'll ping you when they were built | 15:46 |
| ttx | kirkland: if they use a complex network config, they should | 15:46 |
| pitti | apw: I tested it under slightly different conditions, but it sounds related | 15:47 |
| kirkland | ttx: acceptable, yes; not ideal, IMHO | 15:47 |

| dpm | mvo_, it seems to be, in my system -> /usr/share/locale-langpack/ca/LC_MESSAGES/apturl.mo | 16:26 |

| lool | Keybuk: Do you have any issue with adding this check during boot http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~bratsche/gdm/xsplash-check-cmdline/revision/146 ? | 16:45 |
| Keybuk | makes sense to me | 16:45 |
| Keybuk | though why would you want to disable xsplash? | 16:45 |
| Keybuk | you disable usplash because you want to see things going on under it | 16:46 |
| Keybuk | all that goes on under xsplash is the pinwheel | 16:46 |
| lool | Keybuk: Just in case something goes wrong or you simply don't want it | 16:46 |
| ion | That would match anything with a ‘splash’ substring. | 16:46 |
| lool | Keybuk: we had the case where it broke and we had no facility to document a workaround, and some people don't like it | 16:46 |
| lool | ion: I suggested adding -w | 16:46 |
| Keybuk | though strictly speaking, that grep is wrong | 16:46 |
| Keybuk | since that will match root=/dev/mapper/ubuntu-splash-top | 16:47 |
| Keybuk | -w won't help, since - is a word boundary | 16:47 |
| lool | Hmm true, I think gdm was using that though | 16:47 |
| Keybuk | the gdm upstart job reads /proc/cmdline using for | 16:48 |
| Keybuk | random thought | 16:48 |
| Keybuk | if you check for splash in that list and set an ENVVAR, does that end up in the gdm session scripts | 16:48 |
| Keybuk | ie. could you modify /etc/init/gdm.conf, set SPLASH=true at the top | 16:48 |
| lool | we dont need to send an envvar I guess | 16:48 |
| Keybuk | then when it reads the command-line, set SPLASH=false | 16:48 |
| Keybuk | (or however that should work) | 16:48 |
| Keybuk | then just check that var in the scripts | 16:49 |
| Keybuk | that'd save you a lot of processor time of re-reading /proc/cmdline a dozen times | 16:49 |
| lool | just for ... splash) start xsplash; | 16:49 |
| Keybuk | (well, not that it's much, but each one adds up) | 16:49 |
