asacmicahg provided a branch and most likely i failed to apply it :/00:11
asacis that the story?00:11

asacd night ;)00:13
ftayeah, thanks00:13
micahgaltohough I think my ff build will fail now :)00:14
asacmicahg: so did you check xulrunner-1.9 in universe/main too?01:15
micahgnot yet01:15
asacmicahg: ok.01:15
asacmicahg: but firefox-3.0 was done, right? can you comment your findings in the bug?01:16
asacat best the firefox-3.0 ones for now ;)01:16
micahgdone01:17
micahgI tried to build 3.6~b1 with m-dev 0.1201:18
micahgdidn't work too well01:18
asacmicahg: yeah better use the latest m-dev01:18
micahgI backported it to Jaunty01:18
asachmm01:19
asacmicahg: well. you just need the orig.tar.gz01:19
asacyou can produce that in karmic if its bad in jaunty m-dev01:19
asacthough it should work afaik01:19
asacnot sure though because of tip/default etc.01:19
asacbut i thought the hg stuff worked for a while and we didnt change how its integrated in pacakge01:19
asacbut maybe fta redid something i didnt see ;)01:20
micahgit might not have been the m-dev script01:20
micahgbut I figured it was easy enough to backport01:20
asack01:20
asacmicahg: daily ppa has no backport for that afaik01:20
asacand works too ;)01:21
micahghmm01:22
micahgmist be somethign else01:22
asacmicahg: seahorse-plugins depends on ffox? thought on xulrunner ;)01:22
micahgoh01:23
micahghmmm01:23
asachehe01:23
asacok so that means you alredy checked main for xulrunner?01:23
asace..g just universe and sources missing?01:23
micahgyeah01:23
asacor did you search sources?01:23
micahgI search sources in main01:23
asacok ... so binaries and sources+binaries from universe still missing for xul-1.901:23
micahgFixed01:24
micahgasac: hmm...seems to be working with the new m-dev01:27
micahgasac: ff3.6build1 and xul1.9,2build1 built fine03:30

av`asac, are you doing devhelp update?12:17
av`asac, I did it for debian already12:18
av`saw your name on the package's page12:18
av`assigned to devhelp12:18
asacav`: devhelp == new tarball?12:36
asacis that gnome?12:36
av`asac, yes12:42
asacav`: bug 451864 ?12:43
ubottuLaunchpad bug 451864 in devhelp "Please sync devhelp 2.28 from debian sid" [Wishlist,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/45186412:43
asacor something newer?12:43
av`should be it12:43
av`asac, why they give you GNOME stuff to do?12:47
asacwhy do you think they gave it to me?12:49
asacat some point i ported it to xulrunner 1.912:49
asacsince then i more or less take care if it needs new porting12:49
av`asac, seahorse-plugins failed to build12:50
av`you enabled ephy plugin  --> enabling epiphany plugin...12:50
av`but you deleted the depends12:50
asacannoying12:50
av`of course it fails trying to find gecko to really build the plugin12:50
asacsure12:52
asac had it right here. but then robert prepared the update and i took it which reverted the configure flags thing12:52
asaciu shouldnt take care for credits in future12:52
asacav`: so i just dropped the --enable-gecko ... thats ok?12:52
av`asac, which credits?12:53
av`asac, -with-gecko=libxul-unstable is a bit non-sense12:54
av`if you remove ephy stuff and you leave that12:54
av`it will fail for sure12:54
av`let me test build12:54
asacnow i remember ... you said that it will auto detect the that there are no build deps12:54
asacbut that doesnt work12:55
asacthe --disable-epiphany is even needed ;)12:55
av`in debian wasnt needed12:55
asacfixing that now12:55
av`k12:55
asacyeah12:55
asaci think it would work without disable on buildds12:55
asacbut if there is gecko it will still take it12:55
av`exactly12:55
av`maybe ubuntu still has gecko12:55
av`asac, did you upload this latest revision?12:56
asacwell. things should never be automagic12:56
asacalways put in --disable-epiphany12:56
asacotherwise your local builds will differ from real builds12:57
av`asac, I've removed gecko thing in rules12:57
av`let's see12:57
av`asac, and anyway it will auto-detect that there ano B-Ds only if the configure flag --gecko-... is removed13:02
av`if you leave it you asks configure to find gecko bits13:02
av`but the B-D is not there13:02
asacyes. the fault was on my side not dropping it13:03
asacjust saying that not adding --disable-epiphany is also wrong13:03
av`well, it depends13:04
av`it won't fail the build13:04
asacno. but it will pick up gecko if you have it on your disk13:04
asacwhich is also wrong ;)13:04
asacif a package doesnt work ... it shouldnt be build13:05
av`asac, if you disable gecko and remove the flag13:05
av`it will say ephipanu plugin disabled13:05
av`that's what we want13:06
asacav`: not if you ahve xulrunner-1.9-dev installed13:06
asacav`: you need to do --disable-epiphany13:06
asaci just tried it13:06
asaci expect a reasonable upstream build system to not build epiphany if there is no epiphany--dev installed13:06
asacbut they look for gecko and then flip it on13:06
av`asac, pretty bad then13:09
av`removing epiphany-dev should do the work with a correct configure run13:09
asacav`: no. thats the point ;)13:09
asaci dont have epiphany-dev installed13:09
asachmm i have13:09
asacso yeah13:09
av`that's it :)13:09
asacanyway... all the automagic is painful13:09
asacexplicit flags for the world ;)13:10
asacnevermind13:10
av`I'm building it on my buildd13:10
av`to check13:10
asacav`: its already uploaded13:10
asacand accepted13:10
asacif it fails again i will resign from my job13:10
asac;)13:10
asacav`: so devhelp might have a chance as its not on CD13:12
av`asac, yeah, seb told me it's not really needed atm13:13
av`asac, it ftbfs again13:16
av`asac, jk :P13:16
asacav`: dont do that :-Ü13:17
asaci am completely overworked ... hung over and what not atm13:17
av`ehehe :)13:17
asacso these kind of jokes make me jump out of window13:17
av`lol13:17
av`sorry then :)13:17
asachttps://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/seahorse-plugins/2.28.1-0ubuntu313:17
av`asac, if it would really ftbfs I would have done it for you so you could have moved to something else13:18
av`but worked13:18
asacbut seriously. i think for next release i should create a bunch of pbuilder tarballs and actualyl test something13:18
av`yep13:18
asacav`: well. the problem would not to do it, but that release managers will kill me ;)13:18
av`:D13:18
asacslangasek probably didnt sleep for the whole night and waits for all the bits to be there so he can fire up the ISO run13:18
asacand i stressed him completely by my xulrunner/firefox etc. uploads today13:19
av`yeah, so another ftbfs on seahorse-plugins wouldnt be accepted by him13:19
asacit probably would13:20
asacbut i am not sure i would get anything in after that13:20
asaclike a High importance bug in network-manager -> blocked ;)13:20
asacyou can basically always argue that high importance bugs in apps are not important for the whole release13:20
asacespecially at this time13:20
av`but everything went fine, good work13:20
av`going to study now13:20
asacav`: thx.13:20
av`see ya late night13:21
asacav`: btw, i think your work is improving quite a lot13:21

asacjust wanted to say that ... but forgot yesterday13:21
av`asac, thanks a lot, I'm doing a focused work and yeah, it's going great so far13:21

asacmac_v: did you drop nm-device-active icon from last theme?17:43
asacor was that link shuffeling?17:43
asacsomething must have changed17:43
asac18:41 < NoelJB> ** (nm-applet:2390): WARNING **: Icon nm-active-device missing: Icon 'nm-active-device' not present in theme17:43
asacthat was seen during upgrade17:44
asaccould be that its harmless - but could be pretty bad17:44
mac_vasac: i dont think there was ever an icon by that name. that icon is for what device?17:45
asacmac_v: well. that icon must exist if nm-applet complains about it ;)17:46
asacits odd though17:46
mac_vasac: i meant in humanity theme :)17:46
asacmac_v: maybe you guys shipped a link to that and now you retargetted that link?17:46
asacmac_v: this guy uses human theme17:47
asacis that humanity-icon-theme?17:48
mac_vbug # ?17:48
asacmac_v: no bug. its hot. was pinged in nm while that guy updated his sytstem17:48
asacwith todays theme17:48
asacwell... with todays updates ;)17:48
asacits definitly transitional . just want to understand why that icon was there before ... and was used ... and now is gone17:49
mac_vi dont remember any icon or symlink being made as "nm-active-device"17:49
asaconly explain i have is that you guys shipped nm-active-device ... linked it maybe as nm-device-wired ... and now moved the nm-device-wired link somewhere else17:49
asacmac_v: who did todays changes?17:49
asaci got it too now17:50

asacbdrung: i never use bits17:55
asaca byte is the minimum full data unit i consider ;)17:55
bdrung;)17:55
mac_vasac: what is that icon for? is it a new naming where -active- is used for panel and ...17:55
asacbdrung: its pretty decent. when secondary home had broken wifi i used it as primary work connection for a few weeks ;)17:55
asaceven uploading mozilla stuff etc.17:55
bdrungasac: yes really fast then (compared to dsl, wlan)17:56
asacand uploads were not much slower than normal dsl17:56
bdrungasac: but lan at the university is still faster17:56
asacbfiller: from german mirror i usually get like 1100K down and just 180K up17:56
asachehe17:56
asacsure17:56
asacbut you cannot be in free-flying mode17:56
asac;)17:56
mac_vasac: even so why isnt the nm applet falling back to the default icons from hicolor? i think nm didnt ship the icon too ;)17:56
asacfreedom is more important than speed ;)17:57
asacmac_v: its something unrelated17:57
mac_vphew :)17:57
asacmac_v: its happening when a icon gets removed from disk that is already opened etc.17:57
asacnothing to do with fallback17:57
asacwould be a theme "fallover feature"17:57
asacsounds like an interesting idea ;)17:57
bdrungasac: i only need a fast server to test the speed there (the maximum was 8 MB/s)17:58
asaci think fta uploads chromium in like 3 seconds ;)18:00
bdrungasac: that's fast18:00
asacyes ;)18:01
asacbdrung: he told me that the rotating dput thing in terminal causes CPU to peak ;)18:01
bdrungwow18:01
asacwhich i find ... interesting ;)18:01
* asac wants that problem ... would promise to fix it ;)18:02
bdrung;)18:02
asacbdrung: so finland folks hav a right to get 100Mbit/s by law by 2001518:02
asac201518:02
asacbdrung: deutsche telkom reiterated a year ago that they think copper is the future18:03
bdrungby 20015 we have 100 Mbit/s, too :p18:03
asaci wouldnt be so sure ;)18:03
asaci wanted to kill myself when i read that telekom statement :)18:03
asacactually kill someone else ;)18:03
bdrungasac: please don't. let someone other do that ;)18:04
asachehe18:05
bdrungasac: hopefully we have 30 Mbit/s at home next year18:06
asaci wanted to go for kabeldeutschaldn when i move to a new home18:09
asaci definitly deny to be a customer of DTAG again even if they have the 50 thing ;)18:09
asacalso i have this inner feeling that dsl is a major problem in my life ... ;) so i am looking forward to do something else18:10
asaci just remember me sitting here and replugging modems/routers all the time ... or just getting hourly resets etc.18:10
micahgasac: there's no xulrunner metapackage AFAICT18:14
asacmicahg: whats the context? hi ;)18:15
micahghi, depends on xulrunner (>=1.9~18:16
micahgxulrunner refers to 1.818:16
asacmicahg: hmm. which packages did i close that way?18:17
asaccan you reopen them?18:17
* asac had hoped that this mess is over18:18
micahgxulrunner-dev points to 1.918:18
micahgI mean 1.9.118:18
micahgconkeror and galeon18:19
asacmicahg: indeed. what a mess18:19
asacwonder why i mixed that up ;)18:20
asacwee only hav e-dev as meta package for xulrunner18:20
micahgasac: also, did you get my not about 3.6 building with official branding18:21
micahg*note18:21
asacmicahg: email? i didnt even look at email today :/18:21
* asac feels miserable ;)18:21

micahgin here18:21
asacoh18:21
* asac scrolls up18:21
micahg3.6b1+build1 built with official branding18:21
asacif no mail i should really get whats going on here ;)18:22
micahgit was about 9 hours ago18:22
asacmicahg: hmm. ok.18:22
micahgis that ok?18:22
asacmicahg: so in the past we shipped betas as official branding18:22
micahgok18:22
asacthat was when firefox-3.0 was out18:22
asacbut now we stopped doing that for 3.518:22
micahgdoes mozilla ship betas as official branded?18:22
asacmy guess is that the rules script changes were done on 3.5 branch only18:23
asacand need to be also applied to 3.6 and 3.7 branches18:23
asaccan you check that?18:23
micahgyeah18:23
micahgIt says (alpha) in the menu18:23
asacmicahg: unclear. i am sure they did for 3.0 betas. but not so sure about 3.5. but we definitly do not do that anymore18:23
micahgok18:23
micahgI was wondering why I was so lucky to have FIrefox 3.6 :)18:24
asacmicahg: essentially, now that final is out, we need to review  _all_ changes that were committed to 3.5 branch and check that everything is also on 3.6 branch18:24
asaci think we also made changes how the .desktop files are treated etc.18:24
asacso before doing that we shouldnt look at these things in the branches directly18:24
asacrather first be sure we have everything in sync ;)18:24
asacalso identify why things were just committed there18:25
asacso we can learn how to better do it in future ... e.g. almost every time we should commit everything first to current highest version branch18:25
asacthen  to next ... and then eventually to current default ubuntu brnch18:25
asacjdstrand: btw, i think we get worst timing again18:26
asacjdstrand: afaik sec update is 28th. so lets hope they do another respin or something ;) ... though i think its unlikely its going back for a full other week18:26
asacso mabe 28th is best if we want to update same day ... or friday is best if we want to update three days after.18:27
asacbut given how huge this update is we might want to wait a full week ;)18:27
LLStarksasac, are you glad that that bug is compiz related?18:28
asac[reed]: is nss/nspr you talked about in .4 or .5?18:28
asacLLStarks: why would i be glad about a bug18:28
asacLLStarks: i am not the person that is happy when bugs go somewhere else18:28
asaci prefer them to stay in my domain of expertise because thats where i can best help18:29
LLStarksglad, as opposed to something more profound and deeply-ingrained in the code18:29
jdstrandasac: hmmm... I think friday has to be the way to go. otherwise we are messing with CD respins, especially if there are regressions18:29
asacLLStarks: i am glad that you could track down18:29
asacjdstrand: friday is day-after-release?18:29
jdstrandasac: yeah18:30
asacjdstrand: ok. and since we have soyuz we are not blocked by ugly archive copies or something?18:30
jdstrandasac: if it is super serious, then I advise talking to slangasek18:30
jdstrandasac: no-- soyuz is not an issue18:30
asacjdstrand: i dont think talking to slangasek will change anything on whether we can or cannot do that ;)18:31
asacjdstrand: i definitly dont want to put the update out on wed18:31
asacand thu is release ... so fri sounds quite good18:31
jdstrandalright, good. :)18:32
ftajdstrand, i'm still stuck with my kvm. and #ubuntu-virt is desperately quiet :(19:02

ftaasac, .. but nothing in our xul dir19:04
asacfta: i think the mozilla location also works19:04
asacshouldnt be installed in all those 3.* versions19:05
asacoh19:05
asacthats a link thing right?19:05
asacodd19:05
asacyeah19:05
asacdpkg -L ?19:05
ftait does. i just wanted to remove the plugin (i prefer the system/external pdf viewer for the web)19:05
asacfta: most plugins dirs are a link there19:06
asacso its probably two or even just one copy19:06
asaci guess three: firefox/ ... mozilla/ ... and firefox-addons/plugins19:06
asacwhat is /usr/lib/firefox-minefield/plugins/nppdf.so19:06
asac?19:06
asacwhy do you have a  firefox-minefield19:07
asac?19:07

ftafirefox-minefield is from m-d, my upstream nightly repacks19:08

asacwhere are the .so things coming from19:13
asacalso ... whats going on with the icons19:13
asacwhy is that needed in postinst19:13
ftai use acroread (even if i hate non free stuff) because evince takes too much cpu, and the rendering is ugly (both text and pictures)19:13

* asac forgets what he just saw19:18
jdstrandfta: ask kirkland and/or soren in #ubuntu-server then. I saw them earlier19:19
jdstrandfta: though someone else might be able to help in there too19:19
ftajdstrand, i guess i should just file a bug :( http://paste.ubuntu.com/297586/19:20
jdstrandfta: possibly, but they may know about it already19:20
ftabut i have no error to paste for the boot failing, other that it doesn't work, i have no other info19:21
jdstrandfta: I vaguely recall seeing a bug regarding Windows and kvm19:21
jdstrandfta: soren and kirkland are the ones who maintain kvm and libvirt in Ubuntu. they should be able to help19:22
asacdoes *bsd work well with kvm too?19:22
jdstrandasac: it certainly used to, though I haven't tried recently19:22
jdstrandI had openbsd in a vm and I believe kees had freebsd (6?) in there19:23
asacgood. probably worth trying to get netbsd on that ;)19:23
jdstrandheh, you picked the one I don't know about :P19:23
asacheh. i like netbsd best (based on a real low amount of work i did)19:23
asaci tried all and when i ended up in issues netbsd was always quiet obvious by reading scripts etc.19:24
asacimo freebsd tried to introduce more smartness ... which seems to more difficult19:24
jdstrandpossibly unsurprisingly, I was a fan of openbsd19:24
asachehe19:24
asacyeah. i found openbsd to be a a bit unobvious too19:24
asac;)19:24
asacbut last time i really used it was a bit ago ;)19:24
jdstrandI've been phasing out my obsd installs in favor of ubuntu. I down to maintaining one obsd machine19:25
jdstrands/I/I'm/19:25
asacjdstrand: right. now i remember why i didnt like openbsd ;) ... it wasnt possible to tune the uptime ;)19:25
asacjdstrand: like here: http://www.jwsdot.com/tuptune/#freebsd19:25
asacthats the dumpest thing i ever did ;)19:26
asacopenbsd resets the tcp timestamps for each connection19:26
jdstrandheh19:26
asacso no uptime with nmap ;)19:26
asac"The good of NetBSD is that the 2 Hz timestamp ticker is able to produce really great values like 5 years or something." ;)19:27
asacnot even sure if thats still true19:27
jdstrandwow. if they can go 5 years without a CVE in the kernel, that is pretty impressive19:28
jdstrandgranted, all the BSDs have far fewer CVEs in their kernels19:28
asacjdstrand: i think its 8 years or something at max19:28
asacif you dont have any port open19:29
jdstrandand by far, I mean *far*19:29
asacwhen was the last tcp/ip exploit?19:29
asaclike in 2.2?19:29
asac(on linux)19:29
jdstrandthere was an sctp one relatively recently19:29
jdstrandbut I don't recall offhand19:30
jdstrandbut it you can get a user account on a system with a local root exploit, that is nearly as good19:30
jdstrand(eg, bad cgi/php script...)19:30
asacsure19:31
jdstrandmost of the linux CVEs are DoS19:31
asacyeah. but there must be a http server without a vulnarability that allows you to exploit a normal html static load ;)19:31
jdstrandlocal DoS19:31
asacyeah19:32
jdstrandand a local DoS is kinda like 'so?'19:32
jdstrandit is easy enough to do that without an 'exploit'19:32
asaci assume a local DoS is usually a memleak in kernel?19:32
asacat least a real dos ... wouldnt htink that just overload can be a Dos19:32
jdstrandit's usually stuff that'll make it oops19:33
asacah ok19:33
asacyeah. but thats a real issue on a multi-user system ;)19:33
jdstrandsure. but a user can do an overload type of thing to achieve something similar19:35
asacjdstrand: is there a thing like ulimit for CPU?19:35
asacguess VM ;)19:36
jdstrandulimit -a19:36
asacoh ;)19:37
asaccpu time               (seconds, -t) unlimited19:37
asacerr ... is that an absolute value? per-process?19:37
jdstrandI don't consider resource exhaustion interesting. I was just saying that if you can perform a resource exhaustion attack, and you can make the kernel oops, there isn't a tremendous practical difference19:38
asacNew package: synce-multisync-plugin (universe) [0.9.0-4.1 → 0.9.0-6ubuntu1]19:39

ubottuError: Could not parse data returned by Launchpad: The read operation timed out (https://launchpad.net/bugs/456598)20:30
asacmicahg: transitaional packages is: you put in the empty package into the new source that is supposed to take over20:30
asacthat transitaional package depends on what the new installed package should be20:30
micahgyes, but in this case, I think a transitional for ff3.0 uis a bad idea20:30

heikkiafaik it is not necessary to have that Breaks-field, is it?20:37
jdstrandfta: did the iso boot? ie, did you start install and then later see the error, or did it error out after storage completed?20:37
ftajdstrand, the libvirt error is when installing.. the thing in text mode asking you to accept the license, choose the partitioning. it seems to work fine until it asks to reboot20:38

asacmaybe we can do that in this turn21:29
micahgasac: do you need a bug to remind you?21:30
ftaxul-1.9.1-dom-inspector should exist, otherwise, if you drop xul 1.9 for the archive, dom-inspector would be lost21:30

micahgI'll file one21:30
asacfta: well. dom-inspector is gone from upstream source21:31
asacmicahg: thx21:31
asacmicahg: if you want to can do the update too ... but we probably should check that it actually works while we are at it21:31
ftareally? hm, maybe, i don't remember21:31
asacfta: yes. they dropped it ... and put it in an independent projet ... just like pyxpcom21:31
micahgupdate prism, or a new package without the depends?21:31
asacor it was constantly broken21:31
asaccant remember anymore, but explicitly dropped it21:31
asacmicahg: well. first try if a new package works with 1.9.1 at all21:32
micahgasac: is this high or critical?21:33
asacmicahg: dont know. i think high is high enough ;)21:33
asaccritical is probably more like: if you install it wipes your hard-disk ;)21:33
micahgwell, package won't install in karmic now21:33
micahgso isn't that critical for the package?21:33
asacthere are no strong definitions imo21:34
asaci guess its probably quite critical for the package ... yes21:34
asacthough removal of data would be worse ;)21:34
asacits a personal thing21:34
asacwhatewver you want ;)21:35
asacfact is: we have to fix this21:35

micahgI can test tonight21:35
asacthx21:35
asacits no real hurry. universe fixes canstill be done21:35
asacjust main is done now21:35
micahghigh is correct :)21:35
asacdidnt know there is a "correct" ;)21:36
micahgI checked in the -bugs channel :)21:36
asack21:36
asacprobably good for a second opinion21:36
asacthe importance is kind of mixed thing in ubuntu21:36
micahgasac: there is a wiki page21:37
asacusualy its "package" importance ... until you milestone and target for release21:37
asacthen its more like "how bad is it for the whole release"21:37
micahgactually, should I assign the prism bug to me?21:37
micahgyeah, importance seems to be distro wide21:37
asacmicahg: sure. in case you find that you cannot follow up, just reassign to me :)21:38
micahgI originally thought it was package wide21:38
asacand ping ;)21:38
micahgok21:38
micahgso, I'll look at it tonight21:38
asacmy personal word is: dont take importance too serious ;)21:38
asacjust rough estimate is good enouhg ... it should suite your own worklist workflow21:38
asacand not confuse others ;)21:38
asacfta: should i keep the 3.1 name for .karmic branches?21:39
asacand we fix that in one run ?21:39
asacor start using 3.5 now and we fix the others later?21:40
asacfta: oh also ... i saw that the branding branch for abrowser is kind of hard coded in mozclient21:40
ftaasac, we should rename asap21:40
asaccan we move that to the package itself ?21:40
asacnow i created a -3.5 branch21:40
asacbut bot still pulls from non veresioned21:41
asacwhich is ok atm, but we should fix that before we bust our security updates21:41
fta"branding branch for abrowser", i think we only have 1 for the 3 firefox21:41
asacfta: thats not possible21:42
asacfta: they changed branding entities21:42
asacso i had to fix that21:42
asacluckily we had one for 3.0 already21:42

LLStarksdebian's license-anal attitude doesn't make sense.22:04
asacshouldnt matter  as long as you dont just do --force22:04
micahgLLStarks: Ubuntu's license schema is a little more open22:04
asacLLStarks: it doesnt make sense based for projects with some goals ... if your goal is to provide an always free distribution that cannot disappear because it gets sued and so on22:05
asacthen it makes sense22:05
asacalso debian isnt really that strict22:05
asacthey have non-free22:05
asacthere are other distros with _only_ free stuff22:05
asacif you say they are anal because they dont let in licenses that conflict22:05
asacthen its plain wrong22:05
asacits illegal to ship stuff that uses GPL and is itself licensed whatever else ... i22:06
asacf its incompatible its illegal ;)22:06
asacubuntu has a similar attitude to licensing22:06
asaconly big difference is that we allow non-free icons in22:06
LLStarksyet we love mozilla's public license and binary graphic stacks22:06
asacunder the assumption that they can be easiyl replaced22:06
micahgand we allow Firefox in main :)22:06
asacLLStarks: somewhat yes. but MPL is really a mess22:07
asacits not really feasible to require you to keep your stuff 6 month online22:07
asacwhat happens if you dont have money anymore or something happens with your hosting etc. ;)22:07
LLStarkswould people have a ****-fit if we shipped abrowser?22:07
asacor the world blows up22:07
asacLLStarks: not sure. we intentionally didnt choose iceweasel22:08
asacnot because we think its wrong for debian. but because we think there is too much wrong understanding about why and what caused this22:08
asaclike: mozilla thinks that debian wanted to ship low-quality ;)22:08
asacmozilla == mozilla community folks22:09
asacand the world thinks something that is highly biased by misinformation22:09
asacthey might have read a slashdot article or a bunch of rants etc. ;)22:09

BUGabundoI read the linux bug two days ago22:27
micahgidk, I didn't do anything yet?22:27
BUGabundovery *very* nasty bug22:27
asacyes. but i thought it was fixed and i duped your bug into that22:27
asacmicahg: no22:27
BUGabundoif we go GOLD without a fix22:27
asacmicahg: https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~mozillateam/firefox/firefox-3.5.head ... https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~mozillateam/firefox/firefox-3.5.karmic22:27
asacmicahg: imo its enough if you propose it against .head and tell that you want a cherry-pick to .karmic22:28
micahgok, so you want me to make a branch for it?22:28
asacat best add your name like [...] in .head changelog so the cherry pick will automatically do the right thing22:28
asacmicahg: no ... just propose the .desktop update against .head22:28
micahgthe reported is a member of the slovak translators22:28
asacand say that you want it to be cherry-picked to .karmic22:28
micahgok, a merge request?22:28
asacmicahg: thats the usual way22:29
micahgok22:29
asacwe should talk about a better way soon i guess ;)22:29
micahgthat's what I was asking22:29
micahgSo I assigned to em22:30
micahgme22:30
asacyeah22:30
asacmicahg: so basically we want this everywhere22:30
asacnot sure if we have translations for 3.7/3.6 at all22:30
micahgasac: probably22:30
micahgI'll check22:30
asacbut if .desktop has it we should follow the rule of thumb to not land something on branches if it isnt landed on more experimental branches22:30
micahgat least for the desktops22:30

asacbut not sure23:18
asac[reed]: ^^ ?23:18

asacbut no folder like that23:19
asacmicahg: http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/3.5.4-candidates/23:19
asacso here http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/23:19
micahgah23:19
asacseems they put candidates there23:19
micahgso I need to respin my 3.6b123:20
asacnot sure if they keep them around though23:20
micahgbuild2 is out23:20
asacmicahg: if you made a build1 ... then yes.23:20
micahgI do the same process?23:20
asacmicahg: so if you simulate what we would do in a "normal" security/stability update you would just flip the text you added in current topmost changelog23:21
asacbut besides from that follow same procedure23:21
asace.g. not a full new release23:21
asacchangelog-wise23:21
asacbut not sure if you have branches at all for those23:21
micahgbut I get-orig-source again like alst time?23:21
asacyes23:21
micahgok23:21
asacjust with new tag23:21
micahggot it23:21
asacmicahg: check out how i document security stability updates in stable branches like .jaunty etc.23:21
asaci think for beta build1,2,3 it should be similar23:22
ftahttps://merges.ubuntu.com/main-trend.png23:22
asacnot stability/security update of course ;) but rather "beta release build1 (FIREOFX_...BUILD1)23:22
ftaour libvirt is too different from debian, too much work for me just to try if it fixes my problem :(23:23
micahgDO I add a new comment or just edit the current one, since it's not official?23:24
asacmicahg: what i meant above is that you edit the build1 comment23:28
micahgok23:28
asacopen it with UNRELEASED again23:28
asacedit23:28
asacupload ;)23:28
asacadjust version of course23:28
micahgit should say unreleased?23:29
asacso if you previously had like 3.5.1+build1-0ubuntu6 ... you would go to23:29
asac3.5.1+build2-0ubuntu123:29
asacmicahg: well. if things go to anywhere official we close changelogs. as they might potentially get released. if you want to simulate that process, then you close it for the upload23:30
asacbut reopen in case build2 comes ... because that basically means that the build1 got never released23:30
micahgwell, I changed unreleased to karmic since I needed to upload23:30
asacso process is: "release" a +build1 to some staging area23:30
asacin case that gets officially released later upstream we copy that to the real release area23:30
asacin case it doesnt we upload +build2 to t he staging area23:30
asacsame game23:31
asacthats why build2 is not a new changelog entry23:31
micahgI didn't make a bzr branch for it23:31
asacbecause build1 never hits the release channel ... just staging23:31
asacmicahg: right. for upload you always need to release (technically)23:32
micahgok23:32
micahgjust wanted to make sure I didn;t mess something up23:32
asacno. if you do it in your ppa and dont do a branch you want to get into .head23:33
asacthen you cannot do much wrong23:33

BUGabundoasac: for me and lot of users23:37
BUGabundoit warrants the ship date to be changed23:37
BUGabundoits a critical bug23:37
micahgBUGabundo: maybe go poke #ubuntu-kernel23:38
asacthey wont do a kernel upload before release i think23:38
asacproblem is that we release time based23:38
BUGabundolet me update the bug then23:38
BUGabundoasac: it's a critical bug23:38
asacthat has risks and has benefits23:38
BUGabundoshould be considered23:38
asacit is considered23:39
asacits fix committed23:39
BUGabundoleaving users stranded without internet23:39
BUGabundois not a solution23:39
asacit is not considered to hold back the release23:39
BUGabundook23:39
asaci cannot say thats right or wrong :) ... answer is that i dont know23:39
BUGabundoso bye bye internet23:39
asaci know that if one is struck by a bug23:39
BUGabundome and many other users depend on 3G modems23:39
asacthen its critical for one self23:39
BUGabundoI haven't been able to access intenet on my laptop for 3 weeks now23:40
asacBUGabundo: so basic idea is that you upgrade with jaunty on ... and all the updates get automatically installed.23:40
micahgasac: last release was after freeze23:40
asacBUGabundo: so in theory it could be added to release notes23:40
micahgthey could upload another fix23:40
BUGabundoprob here is no updates!23:40
BUGabundothose with net to get updates will get the newer kernel too23:40
BUGabundoas long as it is available as soon as release23:40
BUGabundothe prob here is users on livecd installing a fresh system23:41
asacthe problem with the kernel is that you cannot just upload it and hope all is fine23:41
asacso if you upload it and everything breaks its a mess23:41
asacits a real huge overhead to do a release23:41
asacfirefox is a huge overhead too for security updates23:41
asaclots of testing23:41
asacbut by far not as much that you need on a kernel23:41
asacso you upload that and then all different hardware testing and all stuff needs to be rerun etc.23:42
asacand QA has to stop ...s tart from scratch23:42
asacall vedded and community tested images, trashed23:42
BUGabundoI understand that23:42
asacits not easy ... not saying that there is no potential improvement ;)23:42
BUGabundoif it can't be done on time23:43
BUGabundoit should be delayed23:43
BUGabundoI know its bad pub23:43
BUGabundoI know pleanty of ppl are counting on it23:43
BUGabundobut a critical bug for a big subset of users23:43
BUGabundois not acceptable23:43
asacyes. but problem is that all hardware that doesnt work or regressed will be critical for whoever has that hardware23:43
asacso you woul dhave to fix _all_ hardware regressions23:43
BUGabundoits a 3 week bug23:43
asacthats not possible23:43
BUGabundoan huge regression23:43
asacfor the hardware affected23:44
asacyes.23:44
asacthe closer you get to release the higher threshold you get on things that will be considered release critical23:44
asaci agree that its not obvious what would hold back a release23:45
BUGabundo10% users affected enough?23:46
micahgasac: is this ok for a changelog entry?   * Test release of 1.9.2 beta 1 build 2 (FIREFOX_3_6b1_BUILD2)23:46
BUGabundohow about all the bad pub??23:46
asacmicahg: yes.23:46
BUGabundoits not something that can be fixed _after_ install!!!23:46
asacBUGabundo: users usually boot livecd23:46
asacif that device does not work you know that you cannot use it23:46
BUGabundoand no net there23:46
asacso you wouldnt install23:47
BUGabundohow many will test 3G there before install?23:47
BUGabundoif I give a CD to someone23:47
asacif you upgrade ... you know that upgrading on first day is proably a bad idea - just out of common sense23:47
BUGabundothey install it23:47
BUGabundoand endup without net23:47
BUGabundoI know, 2 years ago23:47
BUGabundowe didn't even had support for it :)23:47
asacBUGabundo: you give a CD to someone to test. they test it and if it works for them well they install it23:47
BUGabundobut now, we depend on it23:47
asacthats how it should be imo23:47
asacBUGabundo: yes. its a problem. as i said, all hardware regression is critical for those that have that hardware23:48
asacif we follow through with what you would like we would never release23:48
asacbecause every new kernel version will hav hardware regressions23:48
BUGabundoI know23:48
micahgBUGabundo: you can fix after install with a wired connection23:48
asacso thats why if it doesnt really matter when you release23:49
asacwe would need to look at "how much hardware regressed"23:49
asaccompre that to jaunty23:49
asacyes. and in worst case most people will be able to get net somewhere23:49
asacwifi from friend/neighbour23:49
asacor lan23:49
asacin internet cafe23:49
asacopf course annoying23:49
asacbut checkout what happens if you give a random guy to install a pure windows23:50
asacon a blank system23:50
asacthey will have no net ...m aybe no keyboard, nothing ;)23:50
asacugly vga graphics card. ;)23:50
asacso user has to go to internet cafe and download all kind of drivers ... on a separate machine and then copy that somehow over ;)23:51
asacnot saying thats something we should compare with23:51
asacjust that we should compare same things23:51
asacand not forget what how good/bad other things are23:51
asacstill we should have an idealistic goal ... zero bugs23:51
micahgasac: currently at 70k+ open :)23:52
BUGabundoasac: I've entered my view on the bug :)23:52
BUGabundolets hope for the best23:52
asacbut what any OS needs is not a "easy way to get a perfect install on random hardware you found or build together"23:52
asacBUGabundo: yeah23:52
asaccontinue .... it needs "mass factory installs of LTS" ... ;)23:53
micahgasac: can I use the same tarball for xulrunner and firefox?23:55
asacmicahg: no23:56
micahgok23:56
asacmicahg: well. its probably the same inside23:56
asacbut i wouldnt rely on it23:56
asacneeds knowledge of the mozclient details23:56
micahgok, I'm building a new one for firefox23:56
asacmicahg: you could help fixing the LOCAL_BRANCH feature for mercurial23:56
asacso you can just have one local branch23:56
asac;)23:56
micahgmaybe someday23:57
asachehe23:57
asacright23:57
micahgwhere is that, in mozclient?23:57
micahgor in actual hg?23:57
asacmicahg: you can do ./debian/rules get-orig-source ... LOCAL_BRANCH=/path/to/local/clone/of/hg/or/git/or/bzr/tree ;)23:57
asacso it will not get the initial clone from the remote location23:57
asacrather update the existing checkout/clone23:57
asacand use that to prepare orig23:58
asacmuch faster23:58
asac;)23:58
asacmicahg: oh "where" ;M)23:58
asacits in Mercurial.pm23:58
asacor something23:58
