mac_vchrisccoulson: hi... i noted something similar to the gpm icon > https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/397839/comments/46  , but that seems fixed in ATI , it seems more of an xorg issue than a gpm issue09:35
ubottuUbuntu bug 397839 in gnome-power-manager "Screen randomly goes off in karmic" [Critical,Fix released]09:35
mac_vchrisccoulson: also, see my comment #49  , if the users are getting the icon that might just mean the bug is hiding and not yet fixed in the xorg09:36
mac_vhope that helps ;)09:37
chrisccoulsonmac_v - we have carried the X server patch that exposes that bug for some time though09:39
mac_vchrisccoulson: yeah ,09:40
chrisccoulsonsorry, i meant the patch which fixes that bug09:40
mac_vchrisccoulson: i got the icon even after the patch , so not sure if the patch was the full fix09:41
chrisccoulsonmac_v - the patch fixes the issue, but i think that the icon is appearing in cases where it shouldn;g09:41
chrisccoulsonin my case, it appears on inactive user sessions where g-p-m is not able to blank the display09:41
chrisccoulsoni'm going to spend some time investigating it anyway, as my girlfriend is quite concerned to read that her display is broken09:42

seb128pitti, let me know when you have a minute to look at versions with me13:00
seb128pitti, I updated the source to lucid rather than karmic but it might need a rename of the apt index and a sources.list change13:00
seb128pitti, I would like to check that the update runs fine on your server13:00
pittiseb128: I pulled and removed index/karmic; let me re-run and create the missing dirs13:02
seb128pitti, thanks13:02
pittiSystemError: E:You must put some 'source' URIs in your sources.list13:03
pittihmm13:03
chrisccoulsonseb128 - i just saw your e-mail to ubuntu-desktop. i was just planning to respond to your e-mail yesterday with a suggestion of cleaning up some of our packages/getting patches upstream, but you beat me to it ;)13:03
seb128pitti, you will probably need to copy the sources.list manually13:03
seb128chrisccoulson, I figured that there was maybe too much in the first email since nobody commented13:04
pittiseb128: ah, it doesn't create index/lucid/etc/apt/sources.list manually?13:04
seb128so let's start with easy tasks ;-)13:04
seb128pitti, I don't think it does no13:04
chrisccoulsonseb128 - i was planning to comment, but sometimes it takes me a while ;)13:04
seb128chrisccoulson, you are still welcome to comment13:04
seb128chrisccoulson, good work on those SRU btw13:04
seb128chrisccoulson, on the fixing and on the description the change, impact, etc13:05
chrisccoulsonseb128 - no problem :)13:05
pittiseb128: running now13:06
seb128pitti, danke13:06
seb128pitti, http://piware.de/workitems/desktop/karmic/versions.html, that didn't work apparently13:08
pittioops, I should rename it13:09
seb128pitti, let it there or have both working please, I just sent an email with this url13:09
seb128ok, clicking on + it has everything13:09
seb128so small bug13:09
fredpseb128, pitti: there's an error in devhelp upstream version detection, in that page.13:09
* seb128 looks into the issue13:10
pittiok, keeping old symlink then13:10
pittibut it won't be correct for "karmic"13:10
pittiseb128: copied back to karmic/13:10
seb128pitti, right, thanks13:10
pittiseb128: the + is weird, that didn't happen before13:10
pittiseb128: the cron job bzr pulls automatically, so just commit and it should sort itself out13:11
seb128pitti, ok thanks13:11
seb128fredp, hum right, I will look into that too13:11
seb128pitti, ok, no http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/germinate-output/ubuntu.lucid/desktop13:12
seb128pitti, that's what is used to build the default list13:12
pittiseb128: ah, where does it take its data from then?13:12
seb128pitti, the list of sources to watch is in the versions.py file13:13
* pitti asks cjwatson13:13
seb128the germinate list is only used to define the default set13:13
seb128ie what to show in the default page13:13
seb128and what in the "+" section13:13
seb128no germinate = only extra items13:13
pittiwhat defines the extra items?13:14
seb128the things listed in versions.py but not in germinate13:14
seb128the default list is an intersection of versions.py list and germinate desktop list13:14
seb128and things out of the intersection are extra items13:15
seb128ie right now germinate says desktop is empty so everything is in extra13:15
seb128I will change back to the karmic germinate for now13:15
seb128shouldn't make a real difference13:15

seb128hggdh, but I can confirm the empathy issue17:19
hggdhoh you looking at the -bugs?17:20
seb128hggdh, need to ping pitti about that when he will be around, he seems to be away now17:20
seb128hggdh, yes17:20
hggdhseb128: will do17:20
hggdhdo you have the bug#?17:20
seb128hggdh, what bug? no17:20
seb128hggdh, I just confirm that ubuntu-bug empathy breaks17:21
hggdhoh, OK17:21
seb128but it might be because I did built it locally and didn't reinstall the archive version17:21

pittire17:45
pittiseb128: what's up?17:45
seb128pitti, nothing17:45
seb128pitti, an user add apport refusing to report a bug against empathy17:46
seb128pitti, it's because he used the karmic-proposed version without karmic-proposed source17:46
seb128I guess apport rely on you having a source providing the deb17:46
seb128add -> had17:46
pittiyes, otherwise you can't determine the origin17:46
seb128right, I figured the issue after pinging17:46
seb128so basically unping ;-)17:47
hggdhso the deb-src corresponding to the package has to be active? Is this the default for apt?17:57
hggdhor only for -proposed?17:57
seb128hggdh, no, the deb17:58
seb128not deb-src17:58
seb128he got the deb manually there or commented the source after installing17:58

chrisccoulsonseb128 - currently, the only effect of the crash in bug 429322 is that a crash report appears (as the crash occurs when seahorse-agent exits). with apport disabled by default, is it worth a SRU? theoretically, we should see this one reported less often now, and there aren't any other side effects19:05

chrisccoulsonrobert_ancell - have you looked any more at bug 429322?22:12
ubottuLaunchpad bug 429322 in seahorse-plugins "seahorse-agent assert failure: ERROR:iop-profiles.c:606:IOP_generate_profiles: assertion failed: (obj && (obj->profile_list == NULL) && obj->orb)" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/42932222:12
robert_ancellseb128 - you stopped hating bugs?22:12
seb128I didn't look at those so much for a few months22:12
robert_ancellchrisccoulson, it's deep down in gconf/orbit somewhere - something must be assuming the x server is still around.22:12
seb128I do for a week22:12
seb128I got some 4300 bug emails in a week22:13
chrisccoulsonrobert_ancell - yeah, it seems that way22:13
seb128I did read those all but I'm saturating now22:13
seb128I need to do something else tomorrow22:13
robert_ancellseb128, we need some bots to go around closing stuff...22:13
seb128what I really want is a "I don't care" button22:13
seb128I would use it on 80% of bugs22:14
seb128there is really some 15% interesting ones22:14
seb128and some feature requests too22:14
seb128so many "bugs" which are user questions22:14
seb128or duplicates22:14
seb128or one time weird issues22:14
seb128or so minor corner cases22:14
chrisccoulsonrobert_ancell - the way it exits is seriously messed up. when it exits, global_client_free() is called, which frees the global GConfClient. Then, seahorse_agent_uninit() is called, which unregisters some gconf notifies, which causes the global GConfClient to get allocated again (after it was already freed), and it does all the gconf_client_add_dir() stuff that it does when it initializes22:16
chrisccoulsonit's really weird :-/22:17
robert_ancellchrisccoulson, eech22:17
chrisccoulsonrobert_ancell - global_client_free() and seahorse_agent_uninit() are registered as exit handlers with atexit()22:18
chrisccoulsonso they always get called when the X connection dies, but they are registered in the wrong order really22:18
chrisccoulsonthis orbit stuff is way over my head though22:19
robert_ancellchrisccoulson, yeah we need the gconf replacement so we don't have to look at it :)22:20
chrisccoulsonyeah, orbit sucks :(22:20
chrisccoulsondo gconf clients need a working X connection to add notifies then?22:21
chrisccoulsonif that's the case, then the fix is to not attempt to do any gconf stuff when the X connection dies, as it's already too late to do anything then22:21
chrisccoulsonor, as mclasen pointed out yesterday, seahorse-agent needs to become a proper session agent22:21
chrisccoulsonand not run from /etc/X11/Xsession.d22:22
robert_ancellseb128, thanks for putting the debdiffs for the totem changes.  There are too many people changing that bug!22:52
seb128robert_ancell, you're welcome22:53
seb128robert_ancell, btw please subscribe sponsors to your bugs that need sponsoring22:53
seb128that will make things easier to track22:53
seb128if I stop reading those thousand bug emails I will stop noticing your changes too22:53
robert_ancellseb128, I subscribed ubuntu-sru - isn't that correct?22:53
seb128no, ubuntu-sru is those who accept the upload22:53
seb128subscribe the sponsors22:54
seb128the sponsor will subscribe sru22:54
seb128not sure if that's clear ;-)22:54
seb128the sponsor will decide if that's worth a sru and upload for you22:55
seb128the sru team will accept things in the queue22:55
robert_ancellI'm following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates which says subscribe ubuntu-sru22:55
seb128btw sru bugs should have testcases and debdiff usually22:55
robert_ancellseb128, yes, I keep forgetting debdiffs22:55
seb128robert_ancell, the wikipage seems to not consider sponsoring cases22:56
robert_ancellseb128, so it's written from the point of view of someone with upload privileges?22:57
seb128well, steps 3 and 4 go together22:57
robert_ancellah, ok22:58
seb128you can subscribe the sru team but subscribe sponsors too22:58
seb128sru do review22:58
seb128they don't do uploads22:58
seb128ie they will not have something to review and wait for you to upload22:58
robert_ancellok22:59
seb128I've no strong opinion on whether ubuntu-sru should be subscribed before or after upload, ie if you or the sponsor should do it22:59
seb128I tend to do it after update22:59
seb128to not make them waste time until things are ready22:59
seb128ie if you subscribe the sru team they will get sponsor comments about things you did wrong too23:00
seb128I prefer to get them in the loop when their input is required23:00
seb128ie after upload23:00
seb128 23:00

seb128robert_ancell, have you seen my new ubuntu-desktop email today?23:01
seb128the versions page has been updated for lucid23:02
seb128and merge season has opened ;-)23:02
seb128I didn't update the gnome version list to 2.30 yet though23:02
seb128we should maybe do that too23:02
robert_ancellseb128, yes - lets go!!23:02
seb128feel free to do changes23:03
seb128the server side to pull before running updates23:03
seb128to -> do23:03
seb128so if you push changes they will be there on the next run23:03
chrisccoulsoni need to start on some merges rather than spending all my time on SRU's!23:03
robert_ancellseb128, oh good, I can stop bugging you guys to update it :)23:05
seb128chrisccoulson, no hurry for lucid if you still have things you think should be srued in karmic23:06
seb128I think we did address the most annoying issues which we can change in srus now23:07
seb128or rather the annoying one which got user traction23:07
seb128I've no doubt there is many things annoying some users left23:07
chrisccoulsonyeah, i think a lot of issues are sorted now23:07
chrisccoulsoni'm trying to figure out this seahorse-agent crash at the moment23:08
seb128is that a logout crash?23:09
seb128ie something nobody would notice if apport was not running?23:09
seb128we should try to teach apport to ignore those23:09
seb128or at least to detect those and note it in the bug23:10
chrisccoulsonseb128 - i'm fairly convinced it's just a logout crash23:10
chrisccoulsonthe crash occurs when the X connection dies23:10
seb128don't waste too much efforts on it23:10
chrisccoulsonso i don't think that users would notice it if apport wasn't running23:10
robert_ancellseb128, how do I make the sources.list to make version work?  It needs some lucid entries23:12
seb128robert_ancell, copy the karmic one and change karmic to lucid23:12
robert_ancellseb128, ah, edit index/lucid/etc/apt/sources.list?23:13

seb128_robert_ancell, ok good23:28
chrisccoulsonrobert_ancell - i think i can see what triggers the seahorse-agent crash now23:29
robert_ancellseb128_, I'm thinking of making a script that parses gnome FTP and LP updates so we can update versions in near real time23:29
seb128_robert_ancell, you mean something to run on client side?23:30
chrisccoulsonliborbit calls g_atexit(shutdown_orb) at some point when seahorse-agent starts23:30
robert_ancellseb128_, server side23:30
robert_ancellchrisccoulson, cool!23:30
robert_ancellchrisccoulson, ycuk23:30
robert_ancelltuck23:30
robert_ancellyuck23:30
* robert_ancell can type good23:30
chrisccoulsonand shutdown_orb() is called on exit before seahorse_agent_exit() is called23:31
seb128_robert_ancell, what updates do you want to parse there?23:31
robert_ancellseb128_, email from gnome-ftp and LP23:31
chrisccoulsonseahorse_agent_exit() tries to do some gconf stuff, which probably fails miserably once shutdown_orb() has been called23:31
seb128_the rss feeds for gnome updates?23:31
seb128_hum, why not23:31
robert_ancellchrisccoulson, I'm sure it doesn't like that :)23:32
chrisccoulsonrobert_ancell - so Xorg dying is actually a red-herring. the crash will occur whenever exit() is called from any code path23:37
chrisccoulsonwhich still probably makes it a non-issue for karmic really23:37
robert_ancellchrisccoulson, but does it restart?  I got some of the reporters to check if it was running after the problem and they said no23:38
chrisccoulsonrobert_ancell - i think it only crashes on shutdown doesn't it?23:38
chrisccoulsonthe crash report at the start of the session could be from their previous session23:38
robert_ancellchrisccoulson, sure23:40
