asac | gnomefreak: ^^1 | 00:00 |
micahg | ah | 00:00 |
micahg | yes | 00:00 |
asac | gnomefreak: is that the bug you are seeing? | 00:00 |
asac | are you seeing it atm? | 00:00 |
asac | ok guess thats the final bug i will be focussing on after all is done ;) | 00:02 |
gnomefreak | 'aslooking but sounds like it | 00:03 |
asac | just have to find the profile with which i could reproduce that issue | 00:03 |
thunderstruck | 3.6~b2~hg20091016r32516+nobinonly-0ubuntu1~umd1 <<< bot problem? fta asac | 00:09 |
asac | why? | 00:10 |
asac | thats a firefox ~b2 build | 00:10 |
thunderstruck | hg20091016 | 00:10 |
asac | i think we have breakage | 00:10 |
asac | micahg provided a branch and most likely i failed to apply it :/ | 00:11 |
asac | is that the story? | 00:11 |
fta | - thunderbird-3.0 (3.0~hg20091017r4190+nobinonly -> 3.0~hg20091019r4193+nobinonly) [60.10MB (+0kB, +0.00%)] | 00:11 |
micahg | I think so | 00:11 |
fta | today | 00:11 |
micahg | yep, that should be fixed in the proposed merge | 00:12 |
fta | looks fine to me: https://edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-mozilla-daily/+archive/ppa/+packages?field.name_filter=thund&field.status_filter=&field.series_filter=karmic | 00:12 |
fta | lol, 3.6, not tb3, n-m | 00:12 |
asac | yeah | 00:12 |
fta | too late for me, i seriously need some sleep | 00:13 |
asac | fta: gooooo | 00:13 |
asac | d night ;) | 00:13 |
fta | yeah, thanks | 00:13 |
micahg | altohough I think my ff build will fail now :) | 00:14 |
asac | micahg: so did you check xulrunner-1.9 in universe/main too? | 01:15 |
micahg | not yet | 01:15 |
asac | micahg: ok. | 01:15 |
asac | micahg: but firefox-3.0 was done, right? can you comment your findings in the bug? | 01:16 |
asac | at best the firefox-3.0 ones for now ;) | 01:16 |
micahg | done | 01:17 |
micahg | I tried to build 3.6~b1 with m-dev 0.12 | 01:18 |
micahg | didn't work too well | 01:18 |
asac | micahg: yeah better use the latest m-dev | 01:18 |
micahg | I backported it to Jaunty | 01:18 |
asac | hmm | 01:19 |
asac | micahg: well. you just need the orig.tar.gz | 01:19 |
asac | you can produce that in karmic if its bad in jaunty m-dev | 01:19 |
asac | though it should work afaik | 01:19 |
asac | not sure though because of tip/default etc. | 01:19 |
asac | but i thought the hg stuff worked for a while and we didnt change how its integrated in pacakge | 01:19 |
asac | but maybe fta redid something i didnt see ;) | 01:20 |
micahg | it might not have been the m-dev script | 01:20 |
micahg | but I figured it was easy enough to backport | 01:20 |
asac | k | 01:20 |
asac | micahg: daily ppa has no backport for that afaik | 01:20 |
asac | and works too ;) | 01:21 |
micahg | hmm | 01:22 |
micahg | mist be somethign else | 01:22 |
asac | micahg: seahorse-plugins depends on ffox? thought on xulrunner ;) | 01:22 |
micahg | oh | 01:23 |
micahg | hmmm | 01:23 |
asac | hehe | 01:23 |
asac | ok so that means you alredy checked main for xulrunner? | 01:23 |
asac | e..g just universe and sources missing? | 01:23 |
micahg | yeah | 01:23 |
asac | or did you search sources? | 01:23 |
micahg | I search sources in main | 01:23 |
asac | ok ... so binaries and sources+binaries from universe still missing for xul-1.9 | 01:23 |
micahg | Fixed | 01:24 |
micahg | asac: hmm...seems to be working with the new m-dev | 01:27 |
micahg | asac: ff3.6build1 and xul1.9,2build1 built fine | 03:30 |
LLStarks | asac. micahg. are there any outstanding firefox bugs that need testing or fixing? | 03:39 |
LLStarks | *for karmic | 03:39 |
micahg | hmm | 03:52 |
LLStarks | ... | 04:15 |
micahg | idk | 04:16 |
micahg | I still have about 180 bugs to triage :) | 04:18 |
LLStarks | what about this one? | 04:22 |

LLStarks | i hate this bug because i run into every day. | 04:23 |
LLStarks | and so will joe windows-user | 04:23 |
LLStarks | when he tries karmic | 04:23 |
micahg | that's one of the ones I need to get to | 04:27 |
micahg | does it happen after an upgrade? | 04:28 |
micahg | nevermind...it's already upstreamed | 04:29 |
LLStarks | micahg, link? | 05:22 |

asac | micahg: are those main or universe? | 09:35 |
micahg | I checked main already | 09:35 |
micahg | that's universe | 09:35 |
micahg | should be it | 09:35 |
asac | whats going on with prism | 09:36 |
micahg | idk | 09:36 |
micahg | oh, BTW, when I build 3.6b1+build1, it built with the official branding | 09:37 |

|eagles0513875| | be back from home | 12:12 |
av` | asac, are you doing devhelp update? | 12:17 |
av` | asac, I did it for debian already | 12:18 |
av` | saw your name on the package's page | 12:18 |
av` | assigned to devhelp | 12:18 |
asac | av`: devhelp == new tarball? | 12:36 |
asac | is that gnome? | 12:36 |
av` | asac, yes | 12:42 |
asac | av`: bug 451864 ? | 12:43 |
ubottu | Launchpad bug 451864 in devhelp "Please sync devhelp 2.28 from debian sid" [Wishlist,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/451864 | 12:43 |
asac | or something newer? | 12:43 |
av` | should be it | 12:43 |
av` | asac, why they give you GNOME stuff to do? | 12:47 |
asac | why do you think they gave it to me? | 12:49 |
asac | at some point i ported it to xulrunner 1.9 | 12:49 |
asac | since then i more or less take care if it needs new porting | 12:49 |
av` | asac, seahorse-plugins failed to build | 12:50 |
av` | you enabled ephy plugin --> enabling epiphany plugin... | 12:50 |
av` | but you deleted the depends | 12:50 |
asac | annoying | 12:50 |
av` | of course it fails trying to find gecko to really build the plugin | 12:50 |
asac | sure | 12:52 |
asac | had it right here. but then robert prepared the update and i took it which reverted the configure flags thing | 12:52 |
asac | iu shouldnt take care for credits in future | 12:52 |
asac | av`: 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-sense | 12:54 |
av` | if you remove ephy stuff and you leave that | 12:54 |
av` | it will fail for sure | 12:54 |
av` | let me test build | 12:54 |
asac | now i remember ... you said that it will auto detect the that there are no build deps | 12:54 |
asac | but that doesnt work | 12:55 |
asac | the --disable-epiphany is even needed ;) | 12:55 |
av` | in debian wasnt needed | 12:55 |
asac | fixing that now | 12:55 |
av` | k | 12:55 |
asac | yeah | 12:55 |
asac | i think it would work without disable on buildds | 12:55 |
asac | but if there is gecko it will still take it | 12:55 |
av` | exactly | 12:55 |
av` | maybe ubuntu still has gecko | 12:55 |
av` | asac, did you upload this latest revision? | 12:56 |
asac | well. things should never be automagic | 12:56 |
asac | always put in --disable-epiphany | 12:56 |
asac | otherwise your local builds will differ from real builds | 12:57 |
av` | asac, I've removed gecko thing in rules | 12:57 |
av` | let's see | 12:57 |
av` | asac, and anyway it will auto-detect that there ano B-Ds only if the configure flag --gecko-... is removed | 13:02 |
av` | if you leave it you asks configure to find gecko bits | 13:02 |
av` | but the B-D is not there | 13:02 |
asac | yes. the fault was on my side not dropping it | 13:03 |
asac | just saying that not adding --disable-epiphany is also wrong | 13:03 |
av` | well, it depends | 13:04 |
av` | it won't fail the build | 13:04 |
asac | no. but it will pick up gecko if you have it on your disk | 13:04 |
asac | which is also wrong ;) | 13:04 |
asac | if a package doesnt work ... it shouldnt be build | 13:05 |
av` | asac, if you disable gecko and remove the flag | 13:05 |
av` | it will say ephipanu plugin disabled | 13:05 |
av` | that's what we want | 13:06 |
asac | av`: not if you ahve xulrunner-1.9-dev installed | 13:06 |
asac | av`: you need to do --disable-epiphany | 13:06 |
asac | i just tried it | 13:06 |
asac | i expect a reasonable upstream build system to not build epiphany if there is no epiphany--dev installed | 13:06 |
asac | but they look for gecko and then flip it on | 13:06 |
av` | asac, pretty bad then | 13:09 |
av` | removing epiphany-dev should do the work with a correct configure run | 13:09 |
asac | av`: no. thats the point ;) | 13:09 |
asac | i dont have epiphany-dev installed | 13:09 |
asac | hmm i have | 13:09 |
asac | so yeah | 13:09 |
av` | that's it :) | 13:09 |
asac | anyway... all the automagic is painful | 13:09 |
asac | explicit flags for the world ;) | 13:10 |
asac | nevermind | 13:10 |
av` | I'm building it on my buildd | 13:10 |
av` | to check | 13:10 |
asac | av`: its already uploaded | 13:10 |
asac | and accepted | 13:10 |
asac | if it fails again i will resign from my job | 13:10 |
asac | ;) | 13:10 |
asac | av`: so devhelp might have a chance as its not on CD | 13:12 |
av` | asac, yeah, seb told me it's not really needed atm | 13:13 |
av` | asac, it ftbfs again | 13:16 |
av` | asac, jk :P | 13:16 |
asac | av`: dont do that :-Ü | 13:17 |
asac | i am completely overworked ... hung over and what not atm | 13:17 |
av` | ehehe :) | 13:17 |
asac | so these kind of jokes make me jump out of window | 13:17 |
av` | lol | 13:17 |
av` | sorry then :) | 13:17 |
asac | https://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/seahorse-plugins/2.28.1-0ubuntu3 | 13:17 |
av` | asac, if it would really ftbfs I would have done it for you so you could have moved to something else | 13:18 |
av` | but worked | 13:18 |
asac | but seriously. i think for next release i should create a bunch of pbuilder tarballs and actualyl test something | 13:18 |
av` | yep | 13:18 |
asac | av`: well. the problem would not to do it, but that release managers will kill me ;) | 13:18 |
av` | :D | 13:18 |
asac | slangasek probably didnt sleep for the whole night and waits for all the bits to be there so he can fire up the ISO run | 13:18 |
asac | and i stressed him completely by my xulrunner/firefox etc. uploads today | 13:19 |
av` | yeah, so another ftbfs on seahorse-plugins wouldnt be accepted by him | 13:19 |
asac | it probably would | 13:20 |
asac | but i am not sure i would get anything in after that | 13:20 |
asac | like a High importance bug in network-manager -> blocked ;) | 13:20 |
asac | you can basically always argue that high importance bugs in apps are not important for the whole release | 13:20 |
asac | especially at this time | 13:20 |
av` | but everything went fine, good work | 13:20 |
av` | going to study now | 13:20 |
asac | av`: thx. | 13:20 |
av` | see ya late night | 13:21 |
asac | av`: btw, i think your work is improving quite a lot | 13:21 |
asac | since you came back :) | 13:21 |
asac | just wanted to say that ... but forgot yesterday | 13:21 |
av` | asac, thanks a lot, I'm doing a focused work and yeah, it's going great so far | 13:21 |
asac | i think your work got better when you switched to the most recent nick name | 13:21 |
av` | lol | 13:22 |
asac | not really sure you are still the same ;) | 13:22 |
asac | like a butterfly ;) | 13:22 |
av` | maybe im not the old bluekuja | 13:22 |
asac | the new one ;) | 13:22 |
av` | I'm his transformation | 13:22 |
av` | yeah :) | 13:22 |
asac | meta-morphosis | 13:22 |
asac | ttyl | 13:23 |
av` | yeah, it happened for a human | 13:23 |
av` | not only for animals then :) | 13:23 |

asac | have fun | 16:31 |
asac | 3g is good during lectures ;) | 16:31 |
bdrung | i won't ;) | 16:31 |
asac | ... if you lost the wifi password ;) | 16:31 |
bdrung | LAN is even better. | 16:31 |
bdrung | download with GBit ;) | 16:32 |

asac | nah. 3g is much better i tell you ;) | 16:33 |
asac | especially when everone has lan + wifi ... | 16:33 |
asac | ;) | 16:33 |
bdrung | asac: how fast is 3g? | 16:48 |
asac | quite good | 16:48 |
asac | normally you get like 300k | 16:49 |
asac | down | 16:49 |
asac | and up is almost the same | 16:49 |
asac | sometimes much more | 16:49 |
asac | and sometimes ... especially if you are in a train its far less | 16:49 |
asac | the good is that you can use it almost everywhere | 16:51 |
asac | so no need to bother about stationary behaviour | 16:51 |
asac | free-flying mode possible ;) | 16:54 |
asac | mac_v: did you drop nm-device-active icon from last theme? | 17:43 |
asac | or was that link shuffeling? | 17:43 |
asac | something must have changed | 17:43 |
asac | 18:41 < NoelJB> ** (nm-applet:2390): WARNING **: Icon nm-active-device missing: Icon 'nm-active-device' not present in theme | 17:43 |
asac | that was seen during upgrade | 17:44 |
asac | could be that its harmless - but could be pretty bad | 17:44 |
mac_v | asac: i dont think there was ever an icon by that name. that icon is for what device? | 17:45 |
asac | mac_v: well. that icon must exist if nm-applet complains about it ;) | 17:46 |
asac | its odd though | 17:46 |
mac_v | asac: i meant in humanity theme :) | 17:46 |
asac | mac_v: maybe you guys shipped a link to that and now you retargetted that link? | 17:46 |
asac | mac_v: this guy uses human theme | 17:47 |
asac | is that humanity-icon-theme? | 17:48 |
mac_v | bug # ? | 17:48 |
asac | mac_v: no bug. its hot. was pinged in nm while that guy updated his sytstem | 17:48 |
asac | with todays theme | 17:48 |
asac | well... with todays updates ;) | 17:48 |
asac | its definitly transitional . just want to understand why that icon was there before ... and was used ... and now is gone | 17:49 |
mac_v | i dont remember any icon or symlink being made as "nm-active-device" | 17:49 |
asac | only 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 else | 17:49 |
asac | mac_v: who did todays changes? | 17:49 |
asac | i got it too now | 17:50 |
asac | upgraded to todays theme | 17:50 |
asac | ** (nm-applet:3496): WARNING **: Icon nm-active-device missing: Icon 'nm-active-device' not present in theme | 17:50 |
mac_v | there was no humanity had an update today , the latest is 0.4.1ubuntu5 | 17:51 |
mac_v | asac: i think the icon is a new name from nm applet which humanity doesnt have | 17:51 |
bdrung | asac: 300 kB/s or kBit/s? | 17:51 |
mac_v | there was no humanity update today* | 17:52 |
asac | mac_v: ok its really applet. sorry for the alarm ;) | 17:55 |
asac | bdrung: i never use bits | 17:55 |
asac | a byte is the minimum full data unit i consider ;) | 17:55 |
bdrung | ;) | 17:55 |
mac_v | asac: what is that icon for? is it a new naming where -active- is used for panel and ... | 17:55 |
asac | bdrung: its pretty decent. when secondary home had broken wifi i used it as primary work connection for a few weeks ;) | 17:55 |
asac | even uploading mozilla stuff etc. | 17:55 |
bdrung | asac: yes really fast then (compared to dsl, wlan) | 17:56 |
asac | and uploads were not much slower than normal dsl | 17:56 |
bdrung | asac: but lan at the university is still faster | 17:56 |
asac | bfiller: from german mirror i usually get like 1100K down and just 180K up | 17:56 |
asac | hehe | 17:56 |
asac | sure | 17:56 |
asac | but you cannot be in free-flying mode | 17:56 |
asac | ;) | 17:56 |
mac_v | asac: 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 |
asac | freedom is more important than speed ;) | 17:57 |
asac | mac_v: its something unrelated | 17:57 |
mac_v | phew :) | 17:57 |
asac | mac_v: its happening when a icon gets removed from disk that is already opened etc. | 17:57 |
asac | nothing to do with fallback | 17:57 |
asac | would be a theme "fallover feature" | 17:57 |
asac | sounds like an interesting idea ;) | 17:57 |
bdrung | asac: i only need a fast server to test the speed there (the maximum was 8 MB/s) | 17:58 |
asac | i think fta uploads chromium in like 3 seconds ;) | 18:00 |
bdrung | asac: that's fast | 18:00 |
asac | yes ;) | 18:01 |
asac | bdrung: he told me that the rotating dput thing in terminal causes CPU to peak ;) | 18:01 |
bdrung | wow | 18:01 |
asac | which i find ... interesting ;) | 18:01 |
* asac wants that problem ... would promise to fix it ;) | 18:02 | |
bdrung | ;) | 18:02 |
asac | bdrung: so finland folks hav a right to get 100Mbit/s by law by 20015 | 18:02 |
asac | 2015 | 18:02 |
asac | bdrung: deutsche telkom reiterated a year ago that they think copper is the future | 18:03 |
bdrung | by 20015 we have 100 Mbit/s, too :p | 18:03 |
asac | i wouldnt be so sure ;) | 18:03 |
asac | i wanted to kill myself when i read that telekom statement :) | 18:03 |
asac | actually kill someone else ;) | 18:03 |
bdrung | asac: please don't. let someone other do that ;) | 18:04 |
asac | hehe | 18:05 |
bdrung | asac: hopefully we have 30 Mbit/s at home next year | 18:06 |
asac | i wanted to go for kabeldeutschaldn when i move to a new home | 18:09 |
asac | i definitly deny to be a customer of DTAG again even if they have the 50 thing ;) | 18:09 |
asac | also i have this inner feeling that dsl is a major problem in my life ... ;) so i am looking forward to do something else | 18:10 |
asac | i just remember me sitting here and replugging modems/routers all the time ... or just getting hourly resets etc. | 18:10 |
micahg | asac: there's no xulrunner metapackage AFAICT | 18:14 |
asac | micahg: whats the context? hi ;) | 18:15 |
micahg | hi, depends on xulrunner (>=1.9~ | 18:16 |
micahg | xulrunner refers to 1.8 | 18:16 |
asac | micahg: hmm. which packages did i close that way? | 18:17 |
asac | can you reopen them? | 18:17 |
* asac had hoped that this mess is over | 18:18 | |
micahg | xulrunner-dev points to 1.9 | 18:18 |
micahg | I mean 1.9.1 | 18:18 |
micahg | conkeror and galeon | 18:19 |
asac | micahg: indeed. what a mess | 18:19 |
asac | wonder why i mixed that up ;) | 18:20 |
asac | wee only hav e-dev as meta package for xulrunner | 18:20 |
micahg | asac: also, did you get my not about 3.6 building with official branding | 18:21 |
micahg | *note | 18:21 |
asac | micahg: email? i didnt even look at email today :/ | 18:21 |
* asac feels miserable ;) | 18:21 | |
micahg | no | 18:21 |
micahg | in here | 18:21 |
asac | oh | 18:21 |
* asac scrolls up | 18:21 | |
micahg | 3.6b1+build1 built with official branding | 18:21 |
asac | if no mail i should really get whats going on here ;) | 18:22 |
micahg | it was about 9 hours ago | 18:22 |
asac | micahg: hmm. ok. | 18:22 |
micahg | is that ok? | 18:22 |
asac | micahg: so in the past we shipped betas as official branding | 18:22 |
micahg | ok | 18:22 |
asac | that was when firefox-3.0 was out | 18:22 |
asac | but now we stopped doing that for 3.5 | 18:22 |
micahg | does mozilla ship betas as official branded? | 18:22 |
asac | my guess is that the rules script changes were done on 3.5 branch only | 18:23 |
asac | and need to be also applied to 3.6 and 3.7 branches | 18:23 |
asac | can you check that? | 18:23 |
micahg | yeah | 18:23 |
micahg | It says (alpha) in the menu | 18:23 |
asac | micahg: unclear. i am sure they did for 3.0 betas. but not so sure about 3.5. but we definitly do not do that anymore | 18:23 |
micahg | ok | 18:23 |
micahg | I was wondering why I was so lucky to have FIrefox 3.6 :) | 18:24 |
asac | micahg: 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 branch | 18:24 |
asac | i think we also made changes how the .desktop files are treated etc. | 18:24 |
asac | so before doing that we shouldnt look at these things in the branches directly | 18:24 |
asac | rather first be sure we have everything in sync ;) | 18:24 |
asac | also identify why things were just committed there | 18:25 |
asac | so we can learn how to better do it in future ... e.g. almost every time we should commit everything first to current highest version branch | 18:25 |
asac | then to next ... and then eventually to current default ubuntu brnch | 18:25 |
asac | jdstrand: btw, i think we get worst timing again | 18:26 |
asac | jdstrand: 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 week | 18:26 |
asac | so 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 |
asac | but given how huge this update is we might want to wait a full week ;) | 18:27 |
LLStarks | asac, 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 |
asac | LLStarks: why would i be glad about a bug | 18:28 |
asac | LLStarks: i am not the person that is happy when bugs go somewhere else | 18:28 |
asac | i prefer them to stay in my domain of expertise because thats where i can best help | 18:29 |
LLStarks | glad, as opposed to something more profound and deeply-ingrained in the code | 18:29 |
jdstrand | asac: hmmm... I think friday has to be the way to go. otherwise we are messing with CD respins, especially if there are regressions | 18:29 |
asac | LLStarks: i am glad that you could track down | 18:29 |
asac | jdstrand: friday is day-after-release? | 18:29 |
jdstrand | asac: yeah | 18:30 |
asac | jdstrand: ok. and since we have soyuz we are not blocked by ugly archive copies or something? | 18:30 |
jdstrand | asac: if it is super serious, then I advise talking to slangasek | 18:30 |
jdstrand | asac: no-- soyuz is not an issue | 18:30 |
asac | jdstrand: i dont think talking to slangasek will change anything on whether we can or cannot do that ;) | 18:31 |
asac | jdstrand: i definitly dont want to put the update out on wed | 18:31 |
asac | and thu is release ... so fri sounds quite good | 18:31 |
jdstrand | alright, good. :) | 18:32 |
fta | jdstrand, i'm still stuck with my kvm. and #ubuntu-virt is desperately quiet :( | 19:02 |
fta | asac, acroread (from the partner repo) installs tons of copies of the pdf plugin: http://paste.ubuntu.com/297683/ | 19:03 |
fta | asac, .. but nothing in our xul dir | 19:04 |
asac | fta: i think the mozilla location also works | 19:04 |
asac | shouldnt be installed in all those 3.* versions | 19:05 |
asac | oh | 19:05 |
asac | thats a link thing right? | 19:05 |
asac | odd | 19:05 |
asac | yeah | 19:05 |
asac | dpkg -L ? | 19:05 |
fta | it does. i just wanted to remove the plugin (i prefer the system/external pdf viewer for the web) | 19:05 |
asac | fta: most plugins dirs are a link there | 19:06 |
asac | so its probably two or even just one copy | 19:06 |
asac | i guess three: firefox/ ... mozilla/ ... and firefox-addons/plugins | 19:06 |
asac | what is /usr/lib/firefox-minefield/plugins/nppdf.so | 19:06 |
asac | ? | 19:06 |
asac | why do you have a firefox-minefield | 19:07 |
asac | ? | 19:07 |
fta | http://paste.ubuntu.com/297686/ | 19:08 |
fta | i think it's in postinst | 19:08 |
fta | firefox-minefield is from m-d, my upstream nightly repacks | 19:08 |
asac | fta: is that upstream nightly repack in a branch? or are you really repacking the upstreamtar.gz thigns=? | 19:10 |
fta | the latter | 19:11 |
asac | urgh | 19:11 |
asac | in postinst? | 19:11 |
asac | oh now | 19:11 |
asac | please tell me its in firefox-addons/plugins ;) | 19:11 |
asac | oh no | 19:11 |
asac | so much dirt :( | 19:11 |
fta | fta@ix:~ $ pastebinit /var/lib/dpkg/info/acroread.postinst | 19:11 |
fta | http://paste.ubuntu.com/297690/ | 19:11 |
asac | hmm cannot see where they copy it in the firefox folders | 19:12 |
fta | that's acroread jaunty, as there's no version for karmic :( | 19:12 |
asac | still | 19:13 |
asac | where are the .so things coming from | 19:13 |
asac | also ... whats going on with the icons | 19:13 |
asac | why is that needed in postinst | 19:13 |
fta | i 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 | fta: do you have a link to the .dsc at hand? | 19:14 |
fta | http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu/pool/partner/a/acroread/ | 19:14 |
asac | anyway | 19:14 |
fta | http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu/pool/partner/a/acroread/acroread_9.1.3-1jaunty1.dsc | 19:14 |
asac | i think all the versioned firefox things arent a problem | 19:15 |
asac | at least there is a link | 19:15 |
asac | so it would overwrite the firefox-addons location multiple times | 19:15 |
asac | ouch | 19:17 |
asac | acroread-9.1.3$ ls | 19:17 |
asac | AdbeRdr9.1.3-1_i386linux_enu.deb debian | 19:17 |
asac | no. i will not proceed down that road ;) | 19:17 |
* asac forgets what he just saw | 19:18 | |
jdstrand | fta: ask kirkland and/or soren in #ubuntu-server then. I saw them earlier | 19:19 |
jdstrand | fta: though someone else might be able to help in there too | 19:19 |
fta | jdstrand, i guess i should just file a bug :( http://paste.ubuntu.com/297586/ | 19:20 |
jdstrand | fta: possibly, but they may know about it already | 19:20 |
fta | but i have no error to paste for the boot failing, other that it doesn't work, i have no other info | 19:21 |
jdstrand | fta: I vaguely recall seeing a bug regarding Windows and kvm | 19:21 |
jdstrand | fta: soren and kirkland are the ones who maintain kvm and libvirt in Ubuntu. they should be able to help | 19:22 |
asac | does *bsd work well with kvm too? | 19:22 |
jdstrand | asac: it certainly used to, though I haven't tried recently | 19:22 |
jdstrand | I had openbsd in a vm and I believe kees had freebsd (6?) in there | 19:23 |
asac | good. probably worth trying to get netbsd on that ;) | 19:23 |
jdstrand | heh, you picked the one I don't know about :P | 19:23 |
asac | heh. i like netbsd best (based on a real low amount of work i did) | 19:23 |
asac | i tried all and when i ended up in issues netbsd was always quiet obvious by reading scripts etc. | 19:24 |
asac | imo freebsd tried to introduce more smartness ... which seems to more difficult | 19:24 |
jdstrand | possibly unsurprisingly, I was a fan of openbsd | 19:24 |
asac | hehe | 19:24 |
asac | yeah. i found openbsd to be a a bit unobvious too | 19:24 |
asac | ;) | 19:24 |
asac | but last time i really used it was a bit ago ;) | 19:24 |
jdstrand | I've been phasing out my obsd installs in favor of ubuntu. I down to maintaining one obsd machine | 19:25 |
jdstrand | s/I/I'm/ | 19:25 |
asac | jdstrand: right. now i remember why i didnt like openbsd ;) ... it wasnt possible to tune the uptime ;) | 19:25 |
asac | jdstrand: like here: http://www.jwsdot.com/tuptune/#freebsd | 19:25 |
asac | thats the dumpest thing i ever did ;) | 19:26 |
asac | openbsd resets the tcp timestamps for each connection | 19:26 |
jdstrand | heh | 19:26 |
asac | so 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 |
asac | not even sure if thats still true | 19:27 |
jdstrand | wow. if they can go 5 years without a CVE in the kernel, that is pretty impressive | 19:28 |
jdstrand | granted, all the BSDs have far fewer CVEs in their kernels | 19:28 |
asac | jdstrand: i think its 8 years or something at max | 19:28 |
asac | if you dont have any port open | 19:29 |
jdstrand | and by far, I mean *far* | 19:29 |
asac | when was the last tcp/ip exploit? | 19:29 |
asac | like in 2.2? | 19:29 |
asac | (on linux) | 19:29 |
jdstrand | there was an sctp one relatively recently | 19:29 |
jdstrand | but I don't recall offhand | 19:30 |
jdstrand | but it you can get a user account on a system with a local root exploit, that is nearly as good | 19:30 |
jdstrand | (eg, bad cgi/php script...) | 19:30 |
asac | sure | 19:31 |
jdstrand | most of the linux CVEs are DoS | 19:31 |
asac | yeah. but there must be a http server without a vulnarability that allows you to exploit a normal html static load ;) | 19:31 |
jdstrand | local DoS | 19:31 |
asac | yeah | 19:32 |
jdstrand | and a local DoS is kinda like 'so?' | 19:32 |
jdstrand | it is easy enough to do that without an 'exploit' | 19:32 |
asac | i assume a local DoS is usually a memleak in kernel? | 19:32 |
asac | at least a real dos ... wouldnt htink that just overload can be a Dos | 19:32 |
jdstrand | it's usually stuff that'll make it oops | 19:33 |
asac | ah ok | 19:33 |
asac | yeah. but thats a real issue on a multi-user system ;) | 19:33 |
jdstrand | sure. but a user can do an overload type of thing to achieve something similar | 19:35 |
asac | jdstrand: is there a thing like ulimit for CPU? | 19:35 |
asac | guess VM ;) | 19:36 |
jdstrand | ulimit -a | 19:36 |
asac | oh ;) | 19:37 |
asac | cpu time (seconds, -t) unlimited | 19:37 |
asac | err ... is that an absolute value? per-process? | 19:37 |
jdstrand | I 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 difference | 19:38 |
asac | New package: synce-multisync-plugin (universe) [0.9.0-4.1 → 0.9.0-6ubuntu1] | 19:39 |
asac | odd package name ;) | 19:39 |
* asac off ... will check later for things | 19:40 | |

micahg | oh, apt-pinning for a PPA doesn't seem to work right | 20:20 |
micahg | asac: http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/prism | 20:21 |

micahg | hmm | 20:23 |

ubottu | Error: Could not parse data returned by Launchpad: The read operation timed out (https://launchpad.net/bugs/456602) | 20:26 |
jdstrand | fta: cool, I'll try to confirm it | 20:28 |
micahg | asac: ugh | 20:28 |
asac | ugh | 20:29 |
micahg | you made a ff3.0 package in ff.35? | 20:29 |
fta | lol, i typed guess instead of guest | 20:29 |
asac | micahg: sorry ... what do you mean? | 20:29 |
micahg | http://pastebin.com/f327d82ca | 20:29 |
asac | so yes. i think i invented a non-existing abrowser-3.0 ;) | 20:29 |
asac | yes | 20:29 |
fta | oh, we can edit comments now | 20:29 |
micahg | but that caused bug 456598 and possibly more | 20:29 |
asac | micahg: thats a transitional package ... thats the way to ensure that users dont get stuck with something old, not supported, not working etc. | 20:30 |
ubottu | Error: Could not parse data returned by Launchpad: The read operation timed out (https://launchpad.net/bugs/456598) | 20:30 |
asac | micahg: transitaional packages is: you put in the empty package into the new source that is supposed to take over | 20:30 |
asac | that transitaional package depends on what the new installed package should be | 20:30 |
micahg | yes, but in this case, I think a transitional for ff3.0 uis a bad idea | 20:30 |
asac | and you add provides: oldpackage, replaces: oldpackage (<=newversion) | 20:30 |
micahg | it'll screw with depends | 20:30 |
micahg | and stuff | 20:30 |
asac | micahg: not sure | 20:31 |
asac | what you mean | 20:31 |
micahg | https://launchpad.net/bugs/456598 | 20:31 |
ubottu | Launchpad bug 456598 in mozvoikko "incorrect Breaks statement forces removal because of newer firefox-3.5" [Undecided,New] | 20:31 |
fta | who are all those poor "Also notified" people? i pitty them, zillions of emails a day | 20:31 |
asac | fta: subscribers of the package | 20:32 |
asac | so if you subscribe to the whole package you get listed thre | 20:32 |
asac | fta: but its per package ... you can also do that on "ubuntu" i think | 20:32 |
asac | but thats a bad idea ;) | 20:32 |
asac | micahg: afaik mozvoikko does not work in firefox-3.5 | 20:32 |
micahg | asac: well, then the package itself has an incorrect control file | 20:33 |
asac | most likely | 20:33 |
micahg | and apparently the user was using it in 3.5 | 20:33 |
fta | asac, i see the same names in ff, libvirt, kernel, lp, whatever, i guess they are bug control or something | 20:33 |
asac | i mean ... the breaks probably wasnt added there for nothing | 20:33 |
micahg | it breaks 3.0 | 20:33 |
asac | micahg: if mozvoikko was fixed the breaks should have been dropped | 20:34 |
fta | or just crazy | 20:34 |
asac | micahg: mozvoikko breaks 3.0? | 20:34 |
micahg | yes | 20:34 |
micahg | that's the problem | 20:34 |
asac | it should break 3.0 << 3.1~ | 20:34 |
asac | not in general | 20:34 |
micahg | and the transitional package has 3.0 | 20:34 |
asac | thats a mozvoikko bug then | 20:34 |
micahg | I wonder how many other packages like that? | 20:34 |
asac | i would think not many | 20:34 |
asac | we ensured that everything was transitioned | 20:35 |
micahg | transitional ff3.0 seems counterintuitive | 20:35 |
asac | no | 20:35 |
asac | thats the _only_ way | 20:35 |
micahg | transitional ff makes sense | 20:35 |
asac | no | 20:35 |
asac | firefox-3.0 can be installed alone | 20:35 |
jdstrand | fta: how much ram do you have? | 20:35 |
asac | we cannot not transition them | 20:35 |
heikki | mozvoikko works with ff-3.5 | 20:35 |
asac | heikki: sure. | 20:35 |
jdstrand | fta: and did the iso boot or you saw the error before the iso booted? | 20:35 |
asac | the Breaks: was simply a packaging bug | 20:36 |
asac | even my bug ;) | 20:36 |
heikki | :) | 20:36 |
heikki | could you fix it? | 20:36 |
fta | jdstrand, i have 2GB of RAM + 6GB of swap, i tried with 512M and 1.5G, same result | 20:36 |
heikki | afaik it is not necessary to have that Breaks-field, is it? | 20:37 |
jdstrand | fta: 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 |
fta | jdstrand, 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 reboot | 20:38 |
asac | heikki: yes. thats true. i think when i added that i was not sure if the template install.rdf makes the right thing | 20:38 |
jdstrand | fta: http://www.mail-archive.com/fedora-list@redhat.com/msg51978.html | 20:38 |
asac | heikki: so good point. | 20:38 |
asac | heikki: oh | 20:38 |
asac | heikki: so what is generated as minVersion? | 20:38 |
asac | isnt that 3.0? | 20:39 |
fta | the shutdown part produces the error, then nothing. if i manually start the resulting vm, i see nothing past the bios | 20:39 |
jdstrand | fta: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=500968 | 20:39 |
asac | problem i think was that it was 3.0, but the binary was not compatible with 3.0 because its built against xulrunner 1.9.1 | 20:39 |
heikki | MOZVOIKKO_FF_MIN = 3.0a9pre | 20:39 |
jdstrand | fta: I'll update the bug | 20:39 |
asac | heikki: yeah. so i will just patch that | 20:40 |
heikki | file mozvoikko.config | 20:40 |
jdstrand | fta: you said this works with jaunty? | 20:40 |
heikki | ok, thanks | 20:40 |
ubottu | bugzilla.redhat.com bug 500968 in libvirt "virt-manager traceback on shutdown of qemu-kvm -no-acpi guest" [Medium,Closed: duplicate] | 20:41 |
heikki | um, i'm not sure if that file is used at all, there is also a setting MOZVOIKKO_FF_MAX = 3.0 | 20:41 |
asac | heikki: http://paste.ubuntu.com/297760/ | 20:41 |
asac | does that look ok? | 20:41 |
asac | heikki: huh. for me that max is 3.6a1pre | 20:42 |
heikki | oh, wait.. | 20:42 |
heikki | could be some old version then... | 20:42 |
fta | jdstrand, yes, i've used several VMs created with that same ISO file on the same H/W. it was fine. i stopped using those VMs for a while, but I recently needed to use them again, my old VMs refused to boot, then i tried to create new ones, and here i am | 20:42 |
heikki | yes it is 3.6a1pre | 20:42 |
heikki | so your paste looks good | 20:43 |
asac | heikki: ok.. i changed tbird and sm too | 20:43 |
asac | randomly took 3.0b2 ... as i think that was already against 1.9.1 branch | 20:43 |
asac | for sm i used 2.0b1 ... also imo 1.9.1 branch build | 20:43 |
asac | fta: do you remember when sm and tb switched to 1.9.1? | 20:43 |
fta | micahg, asac: ff 3.5 FTBFSed | 20:43 |
asac | is 3.0b2 and 2.0b1 a good guess? | 20:43 |
heikki | thunderbird doesn't use xulrunner for a spellchecking | 20:44 |
micahg | ugh | 20:44 |
micahg | daily? | 20:44 |
asac | upstream landed something? | 20:44 |
asac | thats odd | 20:44 |
asac | thought they are in build3 freeze or something | 20:44 |
asac | heikki: tbird 3? | 20:44 |
heikki | afaik it won't work yet | 20:45 |
asac | heikki: http://paste.ubuntu.com/297766/ thats the thing i will land | 20:45 |
asac | doing a quick test build and then uploading | 20:45 |
asac | micahg: actually you are somewhat right about the ffox-3.0 transitional package ... the initial plan was to not do that | 20:45 |
heikki | looks good | 20:46 |
asac | micahg: but we found out that _all_ packages are marked as manually by germinate ... so all CD install would have got stuck | 20:46 |
asac | that was not the plan ;) | 20:46 |
asac | so we go for good old transitional packages | 20:46 |
asac | a tad late in cycle of course | 20:46 |
asac | but usually you just do it and then fix all the rdepends | 20:46 |
fta | asac, http://hg.mozilla.org/comm-central/log/3645d6bc085b/mail/config/version-191.txt | 20:46 |
fta | 2009-01-07 | 20:47 |
asac | ok a1pre | 20:47 |
asac | hmm | 20:47 |
fta | well, no | 20:47 |
asac | well b2pre is probably good guess | 20:47 |
fta | that's the 3.0 / 3.1 split | 20:47 |
asac | or are we even not ahead of that? | 20:47 |
asac | ah ok | 20:47 |
fta | 3.1 is using moz-central, so 1.9.3 now | 20:48 |
asac | heikki: ok seems that min version is honored, but max version not | 20:48 |
asac | heikki: like http://paste.ubuntu.com/297769/ | 20:49 |
asac | fta: whats the current tbird version? b3? | 20:49 |
heikki | I think that upstream has left it for a packager to decide | 20:49 |
asac | hmm seems we are at 3.0pre | 20:49 |
fta | 3.0pre | 20:49 |
asac | yeah | 20:49 |
asac | good so 3.0b2 is at least not higher ;) | 20:49 |
asac | heikki: micahg: uploaded | 20:50 |
heikki | thanks. | 20:51 |
asac | welcome. good that it was spotted ;) | 20:53 |
* asac gett a bit more confident that important issues somehow bubble up and are not missed | 20:53 | |
asac | sigh awesomebrowser patch _again_ | 20:56 |
asac | have to check how to get rid of that somewhat | 20:56 |
asac | fta: micahg: oh | 20:56 |
asac | i know whats going on | 20:56 |
asac | we have to drop a patch | 20:56 |
fta | feel free | 20:56 |
asac | i had to prepatch the branding fixes i committed to the branding branch | 20:57 |
fta | less patches is always good for us | 20:57 |
asac | hehe | 20:57 |
asac | yeah. well that was just thzere for today | 20:57 |
asac | i will create the karmic branch now | 20:57 |
asac | and then uncommit from .head | 20:57 |
asac | err uncommit ;) ... remove i mean | 20:57 |
fta | yeah (not uncommit plz) | 20:57 |
fta | jdstrand, *sigh* | 21:22 |
fta | and there's not even a ppa up to the task | 21:23 |
micahg | asac: did you see the issue with prism? | 21:28 |
asac | micahg: no | 21:28 |
asac | i assume it doesnt work at all | 21:28 |
micahg | depends on xul-1.9.1-dom-inspector | 21:29 |
micahg | whcih doesn't exist | 21:29 |
asac | heh | 21:29 |
asac | i have to check that | 21:29 |
asac | prism should have been updated in karmic | 21:29 |
micahg | should I file a bug? | 21:29 |
asac | maybe we can do that in this turn | 21:29 |
micahg | asac: do you need a bug to remind you? | 21:30 |
fta | xul-1.9.1-dom-inspector should exist, otherwise, if you drop xul 1.9 for the archive, dom-inspector would be lost | 21:30 |
asac | micahg: bugs only remind me by new mail ;) | 21:30 |
asac | micahg: but i think we need a bug | 21:30 |
micahg | ok | 21:30 |
micahg | I'll file one | 21:30 |
asac | fta: well. dom-inspector is gone from upstream source | 21:31 |
asac | micahg: thx | 21:31 |
asac | micahg: if you want to can do the update too ... but we probably should check that it actually works while we are at it | 21:31 |
fta | really? hm, maybe, i don't remember | 21:31 |
asac | fta: yes. they dropped it ... and put it in an independent projet ... just like pyxpcom | 21:31 |
micahg | update prism, or a new package without the depends? | 21:31 |
asac | or it was constantly broken | 21:31 |
asac | cant remember anymore, but explicitly dropped it | 21:31 |
asac | micahg: well. first try if a new package works with 1.9.1 at all | 21:32 |
micahg | asac: is this high or critical? | 21:33 |
asac | micahg: dont know. i think high is high enough ;) | 21:33 |
asac | critical is probably more like: if you install it wipes your hard-disk ;) | 21:33 |
micahg | well, package won't install in karmic now | 21:33 |
micahg | so isn't that critical for the package? | 21:33 |
asac | there are no strong definitions imo | 21:34 |
asac | i guess its probably quite critical for the package ... yes | 21:34 |
asac | though removal of data would be worse ;) | 21:34 |
asac | its a personal thing | 21:34 |
asac | whatewver you want ;) | 21:35 |
asac | fact is: we have to fix this | 21:35 |
micahg | yes | 21:35 |
asac | and high is high enough to justify an upload in freeze | 21:35 |
micahg | I can test tonight | 21:35 |
asac | thx | 21:35 |
asac | its no real hurry. universe fixes canstill be done | 21:35 |
asac | just main is done now | 21:35 |
micahg | high is correct :) | 21:35 |
asac | didnt know there is a "correct" ;) | 21:36 |
micahg | I checked in the -bugs channel :) | 21:36 |
asac | k | 21:36 |
asac | probably good for a second opinion | 21:36 |
asac | the importance is kind of mixed thing in ubuntu | 21:36 |
micahg | asac: there is a wiki page | 21:37 |
asac | usualy its "package" importance ... until you milestone and target for release | 21:37 |
asac | then its more like "how bad is it for the whole release" | 21:37 |
micahg | actually, should I assign the prism bug to me? | 21:37 |
micahg | yeah, importance seems to be distro wide | 21:37 |
asac | micahg: sure. in case you find that you cannot follow up, just reassign to me :) | 21:38 |
micahg | I originally thought it was package wide | 21:38 |
asac | and ping ;) | 21:38 |
micahg | ok | 21:38 |
micahg | so, I'll look at it tonight | 21:38 |
asac | my personal word is: dont take importance too serious ;) | 21:38 |
asac | just rough estimate is good enouhg ... it should suite your own worklist workflow | 21:38 |
asac | and not confuse others ;) | 21:38 |
asac | fta: should i keep the 3.1 name for .karmic branches? | 21:39 |
asac | and we fix that in one run ? | 21:39 |
asac | or start using 3.5 now and we fix the others later? | 21:40 |
asac | fta: oh also ... i saw that the branding branch for abrowser is kind of hard coded in mozclient | 21:40 |
fta | asac, we should rename asap | 21:40 |
asac | can we move that to the package itself ? | 21:40 |
asac | now i created a -3.5 branch | 21:40 |
asac | but bot still pulls from non veresioned | 21:41 |
asac | which is ok atm, but we should fix that before we bust our security updates | 21:41 |
fta | "branding branch for abrowser", i think we only have 1 for the 3 firefox | 21:41 |
asac | fta: thats not possible | 21:42 |
asac | fta: they changed branding entities | 21:42 |
asac | so i had to fix that | 21:42 |
asac | luckily we had one for 3.0 already | 21:42 |
asac | and its also used in mozclient | 21:42 |
asac | and i expect them to change branding entities again in future ... so we need major version branches | 21:42 |
asac | https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~mozillateam/firefox/awesome-browser-branding-3.5 | 21:43 |
asac | https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~mozillateam/firefox/awesome-browser-branding-3.0 | 21:43 |
asac | https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~mozillateam/firefox/awesome-browser-branding | 21:43 |
fta | but http://paste.ubuntu.com/297801/ | 21:43 |
asac | fta: oh cool. so its in the package | 21:44 |
asac | grewat | 21:44 |
* asac needs to commit that before doing the .karmic branch | 21:44 | |
fta | so awesome-browser-branding-3.5 is not used | 21:44 |
asac | fta: atm. es. | 21:44 |
asac | fta: but 3.0 is used | 21:44 |
asac | and since i had to fix the non versioned branch now | 21:44 |
asac | i made a -3.5 branch | 21:44 |
fta | asac, rename all the branches in lp, i'll rename in the bot | 21:46 |
asac | fta: one second | 21:47 |
asac | currently pushing this commit | 21:47 |
asac | then lets do it | 21:47 |
asac | fta: only .head branches ... ;) | 21:47 |
fta | yes | 21:47 |
asac | and the new .karmic branch will be 3.5 | 21:47 |
asac | ok | 21:47 |
asac | fta: ok i have an up-to-date copy ... so i am safe ;) | 21:48 |
fta | please do 3.6 too | 21:48 |
asac | yes | 21:48 |
fta | and .head.daily too | 21:49 |
asac | ok renamed firefox-3.1.head to firefox-3.5.head | 21:49 |
asac | renamed firefox-3.2.head to firefox-3.6.head | 21:49 |
asac | https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~mozillateam/firefox/firefox-3.6.head | 21:49 |
asac | https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~mozillateam/firefox/firefox-3.5.head | 21:49 |
asac | looking at dailies now | 21:50 |
asac | ok done | 21:50 |
asac | https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-mozilla-daily/firefox/firefox-3.5.head.daily | 21:50 |
asac | https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-mozilla-daily/firefox/firefox-3.6.head.daily | 21:50 |
asac | thats all= | 21:50 |
asac | ? | 21:50 |
asac | ok me prepares .karmic branches | 21:52 |
micahg | I wish you could throw '/me' in the middle of a sentance | 21:53 |
asac | shit | 21:56 |
asac | can someone try to branch the karmic branch? | 21:56 |
asac | https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~mozillateam/firefox/firefox-3.5.karmic | 21:56 |
micahg | sure | 21:56 |
fta | it's huge | 21:57 |
fta | done | 21:57 |
fta | Branched 489 revision(s). | 21:57 |
asac | good | 21:57 |
fta | Standalone tree (format: 1.6) | 21:58 |
micahg | asac: I think the icons that tb2-gnome-support uses have changed in karmic | 21:58 |
asac | i got this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/297808/ | 21:58 |
asac | zr: ERROR: exceptions.AssertionError: second push failed to complete a fetch set | 21:58 |
asac | dont know if i want to file abug ;) ... probably should | 21:58 |
fta | hm | 21:58 |
asac | ok .karmic branch lowered version | 21:59 |
asac | so now xulrunner | 22:00 |
fta | hm, i still have an old firefox-3.1-qt.head branch | 22:01 |
fta | and an even older firefox-4.0.head | 22:01 |
asac | yeah | 22:01 |
asac | maybe mark as abandoned for now? | 22:01 |
asac | in launchpad? | 22:01 |
asac | and rename?` | 22:01 |
asac | like firefox-4.0.head.thatbecame.3.1.abandoned | 22:02 |
asac | or | 22:02 |
fta | watching my 100+ branches locally | 22:02 |
asac | fta: remote is more important to get rid of clutter ;) | 22:02 |
asac | for us at least :) | 22:02 |
asac | not sure how many living-dead branches i have though | 22:02 |
fta | i'm concerned by my --remember, if i just push, i will recreate the old branches | 22:03 |
asac | like things that havent been touched for 130 weeks ;) | 22:03 |
asac | i assume those are obviously abandoned | 22:03 |
asac | lp:~mozillateam/iceape/debian-1.1.x 1 Development 2007-04-24 11:42:11 CEST | 22:03 |
asac | 130 weeks ago | 22:03 |
asac | 78. * New security/stability upstream rel... | 22:03 |
fta | lol | 22:03 |
asac | fta: at best go through all branches you have locally and push --remember to some randome location that isnt a real location | 22:03 |
asac | hmm | 22:04 |
LLStarks | debian's license-anal attitude doesn't make sense. | 22:04 |
asac | shouldnt matter as long as you dont just do --force | 22:04 |
micahg | LLStarks: Ubuntu's license schema is a little more open | 22:04 |
asac | LLStarks: 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 on | 22:05 |
asac | then it makes sense | 22:05 |
asac | also debian isnt really that strict | 22:05 |
asac | they have non-free | 22:05 |
asac | there are other distros with _only_ free stuff | 22:05 |
asac | if you say they are anal because they dont let in licenses that conflict | 22:05 |
asac | then its plain wrong | 22:05 |
asac | its illegal to ship stuff that uses GPL and is itself licensed whatever else ... i | 22:06 |
asac | f its incompatible its illegal ;) | 22:06 |
asac | ubuntu has a similar attitude to licensing | 22:06 |
asac | only big difference is that we allow non-free icons in | 22:06 |
LLStarks | yet we love mozilla's public license and binary graphic stacks | 22:06 |
asac | under the assumption that they can be easiyl replaced | 22:06 |
micahg | and we allow Firefox in main :) | 22:06 |
asac | LLStarks: somewhat yes. but MPL is really a mess | 22:07 |
asac | its not really feasible to require you to keep your stuff 6 month online | 22:07 |
asac | what happens if you dont have money anymore or something happens with your hosting etc. ;) | 22:07 |
LLStarks | would people have a ****-fit if we shipped abrowser? | 22:07 |
asac | or the world blows up | 22:07 |
asac | LLStarks: not sure. we intentionally didnt choose iceweasel | 22:08 |
asac | not because we think its wrong for debian. but because we think there is too much wrong understanding about why and what caused this | 22:08 |
asac | like: mozilla thinks that debian wanted to ship low-quality ;) | 22:08 |
asac | mozilla == mozilla community folks | 22:09 |
asac | and the world thinks something that is highly biased by misinformation | 22:09 |
asac | they might have read a slashdot article or a bunch of rants etc. ;) | 22:09 |
micahg | asac: is that menu translation worth throwing in? | 22:16 |
asac | micahg: prism? | 22:18 |
micahg | bug 448683 | 22:18 |
ubottu | Error: Could not parse data returned by Launchpad: The read operation timed out (https://launchpad.net/bugs/448683) | 22:18 |

asac | identi.ca is also in bad shape :/ | 22:19 |
asac | cannot send a dent through webinterface | 22:19 |
micahg | change slovak translation of menu entry in firefox-3.5 | 22:19 |
asac | hmm | 22:20 |
asac | micahg: for karmic? | 22:20 |
micahg | yeah | 22:20 |
asac | can you tag that as karmic-updates ... and since thats afe enough we can also add it to the branch already ... maybe verify that this guy is really LP admin of slovak | 22:21 |
asac | i might do another upload of trivial stuff | 22:21 |
asac | so we can stack that alrewady | 22:21 |
asac | in worst case it goes out in sec update | 22:22 |
asac | tag == milestone ;) | 22:22 |
asac | BUGabundo: hi buga | 22:24 |
asac | ;) | 22:25 |
asac | BUGabundo: so ... i heard that a huawei linux patch landed? | 22:25 |
asac | i duped your bug ... was that uploaded yet? | 22:25 |
asac | duped your duped bug ;) | 22:25 |
micahg | asac: done | 22:25 |
asac | micahg: proposed against .head or .karmic? | 22:26 |
BUGabundo | boas noites | 22:26 |
BUGabundo | hey asac | 22:27 |
asac | bonas evening | 22:27 |
BUGabundo | asac: let me check bug mail | 22:27 |
asac | k | 22:27 |
BUGabundo | I read the linux bug two days ago | 22:27 |
micahg | idk, I didn't do anything yet? | 22:27 |
BUGabundo | very *very* nasty bug | 22:27 |
asac | yes. but i thought it was fixed and i duped your bug into that | 22:27 |
asac | micahg: no | 22:27 |
BUGabundo | if we go GOLD without a fix | 22:27 |
asac | micahg: https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~mozillateam/firefox/firefox-3.5.head ... https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~mozillateam/firefox/firefox-3.5.karmic | 22:27 |
asac | micahg: imo its enough if you propose it against .head and tell that you want a cherry-pick to .karmic | 22:28 |
micahg | ok, so you want me to make a branch for it? | 22:28 |
asac | at best add your name like [...] in .head changelog so the cherry pick will automatically do the right thing | 22:28 |
asac | micahg: no ... just propose the .desktop update against .head | 22:28 |
micahg | the reported is a member of the slovak translators | 22:28 |
asac | and say that you want it to be cherry-picked to .karmic | 22:28 |
micahg | ok, a merge request? | 22:28 |
asac | micahg: thats the usual way | 22:29 |
micahg | ok | 22:29 |
asac | we should talk about a better way soon i guess ;) | 22:29 |
micahg | that's what I was asking | 22:29 |
micahg | So I assigned to em | 22:30 |
micahg | me | 22:30 |
asac | yeah | 22:30 |
asac | micahg: so basically we want this everywhere | 22:30 |
asac | not sure if we have translations for 3.7/3.6 at all | 22:30 |
micahg | asac: probably | 22:30 |
micahg | I'll check | 22:30 |
asac | but if .desktop has it we should follow the rule of thumb to not land something on branches if it isnt landed on more experimental branches | 22:30 |
micahg | at least for the desktops | 22:30 |
asac | yes | 22:30 |
fta | grrr, karmic ships with a 2~3 months old libvirt, 2 upstream releases late | 22:46 |
fta | where are our package bzr branches? | 22:48 |
asac | good question | 22:50 |
asac | maybe code.launchpad.net/ubuntu/package ? | 22:50 |
asac | fta: you just need to find a bug that was fixed | 22:50 |
asac | usually the branches get auto attached there | 22:50 |

ubottu | Mozilla bug 521780 in Add-ons Manager "extension upgrade with a moved location breaks extension manager" [Normal,New] http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=521780 | 23:02 |
asac | good | 23:02 |
asac | well. i was sure it was | 23:03 |
asac | wouzld | 23:03 |
asac | ;) | 23:03 |
micahg | so, I know what I'm working on, asac, you're fixing the FTBFS for ff3.5 daily? | 23:03 |
asac | micahg: yes right now | 23:04 |
asac | ;) | 23:04 |
asac | thx for remidng | 23:04 |
micahg | ok | 23:04 |
asac | done | 23:07 |
asac | rev 490 | 23:07 |
BUGabundo | asac: this FF annoying yellow bar about restarting FF, is *annoying* | 23:08 |
micahg | BUGabundo: I think it's supposed to be :) | 23:09 |
BUGabundo | its ANNYOING | 23:09 |
BUGabundo | I already pressed the cross | 23:09 |
BUGabundo | I don't want to hear more about it!!! | 23:09 |
asac | BUGabundo: screenshot | 23:09 |
asac | BUGabundo: if you get that ... you are close to getting a bad firefox ... so better restart | 23:09 |
asac | the warning does what its supposed to do ... it stays there | 23:10 |
asac | ;) | 23:10 |
BUGabundo | uploading | 23:10 |
asac | if you dont restart your ffox will go bad | 23:10 |
BUGabundo | http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/112892/Screenshot.png | 23:10 |
asac | yes | 23:10 |
asac | restart | 23:10 |
asac | ;) | 23:10 |
asac | more i cant say ;) | 23:10 |
jcastro | know your rights! | 23:10 |
asac | well. if you dont restart soon worst thing is that in some rare occasions you might even loose data | 23:11 |
micahg | asac: I hope you didn't delete debian/patches/series :X | 23:11 |
micahg | :x | 23:11 |
asac | or end up with otherwise corrupted data in profile etc | 23:11 |
asac | shit | 23:11 |
asac | micahg: i will uncommi and fix comment | 23:11 |
asac | sorry ... bad practice ... i know | 23:11 |
fta | how come will we ship karmic with 78 outstanding merges and 255 updated merges just for main?? | 23:12 |
BUGabundo | restarting FF | 23:13 |
micahg | asac: better ;) | 23:14 |
asac | fta: i think there is no general answer | 23:17 |
asac | fta: i will try to figure out if this cycle something went wrong in our process | 23:17 |
asac | but lots of outstanding merges are most likely packages maintained here | 23:17 |
asac | like network-manager | 23:18 |
micahg | asac: where can I find tagged builds from mozilla? | 23:18 |
asac | not sure if someone blacklisted it from that list already | 23:18 |
asac | good question | 23:18 |
asac | http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/ | 23:18 |
asac | i would think there | 23:18 |
micahg | releases? | 23:18 |
asac | maybe | 23:18 |
asac | mostlikely | 23:18 |
asac | but not sure | 23:18 |
asac | [reed]: ^^ ? | 23:18 |
asac | hmm. i know there are build3 builds out there for 3.5.4 | 23:19 |
asac | but no folder like that | 23:19 |
asac | micahg: http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/3.5.4-candidates/ | 23:19 |
asac | so here http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/ | 23:19 |
micahg | ah | 23:19 |
asac | seems they put candidates there | 23:19 |
micahg | so I need to respin my 3.6b1 | 23:20 |
asac | not sure if they keep them around though | 23:20 |
micahg | build2 is out | 23:20 |
asac | micahg: if you made a build1 ... then yes. | 23:20 |
micahg | I do the same process? | 23:20 |
asac | micahg: 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 changelog | 23:21 |
asac | but besides from that follow same procedure | 23:21 |
asac | e.g. not a full new release | 23:21 |
asac | changelog-wise | 23:21 |
asac | but not sure if you have branches at all for those | 23:21 |
micahg | but I get-orig-source again like alst time? | 23:21 |
asac | yes | 23:21 |
micahg | ok | 23:21 |
asac | just with new tag | 23:21 |
micahg | got it | 23:21 |
asac | micahg: check out how i document security stability updates in stable branches like .jaunty etc. | 23:21 |
asac | i think for beta build1,2,3 it should be similar | 23:22 |
fta | https://merges.ubuntu.com/main-trend.png | 23:22 |
asac | not stability/security update of course ;) but rather "beta release build1 (FIREOFX_...BUILD1) | 23:22 |
fta | our libvirt is too different from debian, too much work for me just to try if it fixes my problem :( | 23:23 |
micahg | DO I add a new comment or just edit the current one, since it's not official? | 23:24 |
asac | micahg: what i meant above is that you edit the build1 comment | 23:28 |
micahg | ok | 23:28 |
asac | open it with UNRELEASED again | 23:28 |
asac | edit | 23:28 |
asac | upload ;) | 23:28 |
asac | adjust version of course | 23:28 |
micahg | it should say unreleased? | 23:29 |
asac | so if you previously had like 3.5.1+build1-0ubuntu6 ... you would go to | 23:29 |
asac | 3.5.1+build2-0ubuntu1 | 23:29 |
asac | micahg: 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 upload | 23:30 |
asac | but reopen in case build2 comes ... because that basically means that the build1 got never released | 23:30 |
micahg | well, I changed unreleased to karmic since I needed to upload | 23:30 |
asac | so process is: "release" a +build1 to some staging area | 23:30 |
asac | in case that gets officially released later upstream we copy that to the real release area | 23:30 |
asac | in case it doesnt we upload +build2 to t he staging area | 23:30 |
asac | same game | 23:31 |
asac | thats why build2 is not a new changelog entry | 23:31 |
micahg | I didn't make a bzr branch for it | 23:31 |
asac | because build1 never hits the release channel ... just staging | 23:31 |
asac | micahg: right. for upload you always need to release (technically) | 23:32 |
micahg | ok | 23:32 |
micahg | just wanted to make sure I didn;t mess something up | 23:32 |
asac | no. if you do it in your ppa and dont do a branch you want to get into .head | 23:33 |
asac | then you cannot do much wrong | 23:33 |
asac | except choosing a wrong version | 23:33 |
BUGabundo | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/446146 still no updates :( | 23:34 |
ubottu | Launchpad bug 446146 in linux "Huawei E169 USB dongle not working with kernel 2.6.31-12.40" [Medium,Fix committed] | 23:34 |
asac | oh ok | 23:34 |
asac | so it was really just committed | 23:34 |
asac | too bad | 23:34 |
asac | BUGabundo: its a karmic-updates bug | 23:34 |
asac | will get released in first kernel SRU | 23:34 |
asac | which i would think will happen pretty soon after release | 23:34 |
BUGabundo | asac: SO BAD :( | 23:34 |
BUGabundo | SRU is really bad | 23:35 |
BUGabundo | anyone using livecds won't have internet | 23:35 |
asac | well. thats the process | 23:35 |
micahg | I hope they fix ath9k | 23:35 |
BUGabundo | so how are those users expected to upgrade? | 23:35 |
asac | its like a big boat ... driving through a whole with high speed | 23:35 |
asac | so you cannot really stop at some point or change a different route | 23:35 |
asac | micahg: what ath9k issues do you see? | 23:36 |
asac | regular disconnects (like NM disconnects) ... or regular packet loss? | 23:36 |
micahg | wireless disconnects semi-frequently still | 23:36 |
asac | or bad state and need reboot | 23:36 |
micahg | need to modprobe -r and add back after suspend | 23:36 |
asac | disconnects like: really drops or package loss? | 23:36 |
micahg | both | 23:36 |
BUGabundo | asac: for me and lot of users | 23:37 |
BUGabundo | it warrants the ship date to be changed | 23:37 |
BUGabundo | its a critical bug | 23:37 |
micahg | BUGabundo: maybe go poke #ubuntu-kernel | 23:38 |
asac | they wont do a kernel upload before release i think | 23:38 |
asac | problem is that we release time based | 23:38 |
BUGabundo | let me update the bug then | 23:38 |
BUGabundo | asac: it's a critical bug | 23:38 |
asac | that has risks and has benefits | 23:38 |
BUGabundo | should be considered | 23:38 |
asac | it is considered | 23:39 |
asac | its fix committed | 23:39 |
BUGabundo | leaving users stranded without internet | 23:39 |
BUGabundo | is not a solution | 23:39 |
asac | it is not considered to hold back the release | 23:39 |
BUGabundo | ok | 23:39 |
asac | i cannot say thats right or wrong :) ... answer is that i dont know | 23:39 |
BUGabundo | so bye bye internet | 23:39 |
asac | i know that if one is struck by a bug | 23:39 |
BUGabundo | me and many other users depend on 3G modems | 23:39 |
asac | then its critical for one self | 23:39 |
BUGabundo | I haven't been able to access intenet on my laptop for 3 weeks now | 23:40 |
asac | BUGabundo: so basic idea is that you upgrade with jaunty on ... and all the updates get automatically installed. | 23:40 |
micahg | asac: last release was after freeze | 23:40 |
asac | BUGabundo: so in theory it could be added to release notes | 23:40 |
micahg | they could upload another fix | 23:40 |
BUGabundo | prob here is no updates! | 23:40 |
BUGabundo | those with net to get updates will get the newer kernel too | 23:40 |
BUGabundo | as long as it is available as soon as release | 23:40 |
BUGabundo | the prob here is users on livecd installing a fresh system | 23:41 |
asac | the problem with the kernel is that you cannot just upload it and hope all is fine | 23:41 |
asac | so if you upload it and everything breaks its a mess | 23:41 |
asac | its a real huge overhead to do a release | 23:41 |
asac | firefox is a huge overhead too for security updates | 23:41 |
asac | lots of testing | 23:41 |
asac | but by far not as much that you need on a kernel | 23:41 |
asac | so you upload that and then all different hardware testing and all stuff needs to be rerun etc. | 23:42 |
asac | and QA has to stop ...s tart from scratch | 23:42 |
asac | all vedded and community tested images, trashed | 23:42 |
BUGabundo | I understand that | 23:42 |
asac | its not easy ... not saying that there is no potential improvement ;) | 23:42 |
BUGabundo | if it can't be done on time | 23:43 |
BUGabundo | it should be delayed | 23:43 |
BUGabundo | I know its bad pub | 23:43 |
BUGabundo | I know pleanty of ppl are counting on it | 23:43 |
BUGabundo | but a critical bug for a big subset of users | 23:43 |
BUGabundo | is not acceptable | 23:43 |
asac | yes. but problem is that all hardware that doesnt work or regressed will be critical for whoever has that hardware | 23:43 |
asac | so you woul dhave to fix _all_ hardware regressions | 23:43 |
BUGabundo | its a 3 week bug | 23:43 |
asac | thats not possible | 23:43 |
BUGabundo | an huge regression | 23:43 |
asac | for the hardware affected | 23:44 |
asac | yes. | 23:44 |
asac | the closer you get to release the higher threshold you get on things that will be considered release critical | 23:44 |
asac | i agree that its not obvious what would hold back a release | 23:45 |
BUGabundo | 10% users affected enough? | 23:46 |
micahg | asac: is this ok for a changelog entry? * Test release of 1.9.2 beta 1 build 2 (FIREFOX_3_6b1_BUILD2) | 23:46 |
BUGabundo | how about all the bad pub?? | 23:46 |
asac | micahg: yes. | 23:46 |
BUGabundo | its not something that can be fixed _after_ install!!! | 23:46 |
asac | BUGabundo: users usually boot livecd | 23:46 |
asac | if that device does not work you know that you cannot use it | 23:46 |
BUGabundo | and no net there | 23:46 |
asac | so you wouldnt install | 23:47 |
BUGabundo | how many will test 3G there before install? | 23:47 |
BUGabundo | if I give a CD to someone | 23:47 |
asac | if you upgrade ... you know that upgrading on first day is proably a bad idea - just out of common sense | 23:47 |
BUGabundo | they install it | 23:47 |
BUGabundo | and endup without net | 23:47 |
BUGabundo | I know, 2 years ago | 23:47 |
BUGabundo | we didn't even had support for it :) | 23:47 |
asac | BUGabundo: you give a CD to someone to test. they test it and if it works for them well they install it | 23:47 |
BUGabundo | but now, we depend on it | 23:47 |
asac | thats how it should be imo | 23:47 |
asac | BUGabundo: yes. its a problem. as i said, all hardware regression is critical for those that have that hardware | 23:48 |
asac | if we follow through with what you would like we would never release | 23:48 |
asac | because every new kernel version will hav hardware regressions | 23:48 |
BUGabundo | I know | 23:48 |
micahg | BUGabundo: you can fix after install with a wired connection | 23:48 |
asac | so thats why if it doesnt really matter when you release | 23:49 |
asac | we would need to look at "how much hardware regressed" | 23:49 |
asac | compre that to jaunty | 23:49 |
asac | yes. and in worst case most people will be able to get net somewhere | 23:49 |
asac | wifi from friend/neighbour | 23:49 |
asac | or lan | 23:49 |
asac | in internet cafe | 23:49 |
asac | opf course annoying | 23:49 |
asac | but checkout what happens if you give a random guy to install a pure windows | 23:50 |
asac | on a blank system | 23:50 |
asac | they will have no net ...m aybe no keyboard, nothing ;) | 23:50 |
asac | ugly vga graphics card. ;) | 23:50 |
asac | so 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 |
asac | not saying thats something we should compare with | 23:51 |
asac | just that we should compare same things | 23:51 |
asac | and not forget what how good/bad other things are | 23:51 |
asac | still we should have an idealistic goal ... zero bugs | 23:51 |
micahg | asac: currently at 70k+ open :) | 23:52 |
BUGabundo | asac: I've entered my view on the bug :) | 23:52 |
BUGabundo | lets hope for the best | 23:52 |
asac | but what any OS needs is not a "easy way to get a perfect install on random hardware you found or build together" | 23:52 |
asac | BUGabundo: yeah | 23:52 |
asac | continue .... it needs "mass factory installs of LTS" ... ;) | 23:53 |
micahg | asac: can I use the same tarball for xulrunner and firefox? | 23:55 |
asac | micahg: no | 23:56 |
micahg | ok | 23:56 |
asac | micahg: well. its probably the same inside | 23:56 |
asac | but i wouldnt rely on it | 23:56 |
asac | needs knowledge of the mozclient details | 23:56 |
micahg | ok, I'm building a new one for firefox | 23:56 |
asac | micahg: you could help fixing the LOCAL_BRANCH feature for mercurial | 23:56 |
asac | so you can just have one local branch | 23:56 |
asac | ;) | 23:56 |
micahg | maybe someday | 23:57 |
asac | hehe | 23:57 |
asac | right | 23:57 |
micahg | where is that, in mozclient? | 23:57 |
micahg | or in actual hg? | 23:57 |
asac | micahg: you can do ./debian/rules get-orig-source ... LOCAL_BRANCH=/path/to/local/clone/of/hg/or/git/or/bzr/tree ;) | 23:57 |
asac | so it will not get the initial clone from the remote location | 23:57 |
asac | rather update the existing checkout/clone | 23:57 |
asac | and use that to prepare orig | 23:58 |
asac | much faster | 23:58 |
asac | ;) | 23:58 |
asac | micahg: oh "where" ;M) | 23:58 |
asac | its in Mercurial.pm | 23:58 |
asac | or something | 23:58 |
micahg | yes, but in m-dev? | 23:58 |
asac | micahg: yes | 23:59 |
asac | ther eis a mozclient/ directory in source | 23:59 |
micahg | is there a bug for it? | 23:59 |
asac | i had it on my personal todo list | 23:59 |
asac | let me check | 23:59 |
fta | asac, there's a bug in my LOCAL_BRANCH code in m-d, remember? | 23:59 |
asac | yes | 23:59 |
asac | thats what i am talking about | 23:59 |
fta | oh, ok | 23:59 |
