| chrisccoulson | hggdh - apport should catch SIGABRT now | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| chrisccoulson | certainly for GNOME stuff, there's a glib patch to allow apport to catch the assertion messag | 00:01 |
| chrisccoulson | e | 00:01 |
| hggdh | chrisccoulson: GREAT news! I never fully understood why ABRTs are out... | 00:01 |
| hggdh | s/are/were/ | 00:01 |
| chrisccoulson | it never caught SIGABRT before because the interesting bit is often in the assertion message, which couldn't be captured before | 00:02 |
| hggdh | well, OK, the assertion text was not always displayed on a bt full, but I would say about half of the times I ran under GDB | 00:04 |
| hggdh | sometimes the buffer was optimised out | 00:05 |
| chrisccoulson | glibc has a symbol for storing assert messages, and this string appears in the coredump, which is what apport uses to create the crash report | 00:07 |

| slicer | yofel: Sorry about the late reply, this was bug #498095 . I closed it as invalid for now, but that doesn't really feel right. | 01:04 |
| ubot4 | Launchpad bug 498095 in mumble "Mumble 1.2 packaging for Karmic 9.10" [Undecided,Invalid] https://launchpad.net/bugs/498095 | 01:04 |
| yofel | hm, the fact that this was filed in the wrong way would justify 'Invalid' IMHO | 01:06 |
| yofel | at least the 'packaging request' is invalid | 01:06 |
| komputes | I need some help. Does someone know how to quickly use this file to check how out-of sync the package versions listed are, compared the current package versions - http://launchpadlibrarian.net/32031645/Dependencies.txt | 01:10 |
| slicer | yofel: Ok, that means my guess was correct then, and I know what to do in the future. Thanks. | 01:15 |
| micahg | komputes: why do you need to check? | 01:15 |
| micahg | slicer: yofel: I believe we usually just | 01:16 |
| micahg | "fix" those packaging bugs to relate to the newest release | 01:16 |
| slicer | micahg: In which case it was filed after the fix was released. | 01:16 |
| micahg | slicer: it's fix released when it's in Lucid, not unstable | 01:17 |
| yofel | micahg: mumble 1.2.0~beta1 is in lucid | 01:17 |
| micahg | yofel: yes, but the bug was for the full release | 01:18 |
| micahg | so it's still valid until it's sync'd from unstable | 01:19 |
| micahg | ..err...testing | 01:19 |
| slicer | micahg: I thought we only sync from testing since 10.04 is LTS? | 01:19 |
| slicer | micahg: nvm :) | 01:19 |
| yofel | ah yeah, the full release is in unstable but not in testing yet | 01:19 |
| yofel | do we need a sync request then? | 01:20 |
| yofel | or will that be auto-synced? | 01:20 |
| slicer | And it won't be in testing until the dependencies get built on mipsel. *Sigh* | 01:20 |
| komputes | micahg: to see which packages have changed, tracking down a fix and where it came from. | 01:20 |
| komputes | micahg: do you know an automatic way of comparing the packages in the list to the current repos? | 01:20 |
| micahg | yofel: probably auto-sync'd, but the bug is still valid until it happens..a sync request isn't appropriate yet | 01:21 |
| slicer | yofel: I think the import freeze is Feb 11th. | 01:21 |
| micahg | komputes: I don't, but what's the bug #? | 01:21 |
| komputes | micahg: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm/+bug/431147 | 01:21 |
| ubot4 | Launchpad bug 431147 in gdm "Cannot Unlock "System > Administration > Login Screen"" [Low,Incomplete] | 01:21 |
| slicer | yofel: I really hope they fix the deps on mipsel before that :) | 01:22 |
| komputes | micahg: it only affects a few users, but is very annoying. | 01:22 |
| komputes | micahg: and it seems to go away on it own for some | 01:22 |
| micahg | komputes: what makes you think an update fixed it? | 01:23 |
| komputes | micahg: personal experience | 01:25 |
| micahg | komputes: you might have better luck going to b.g.o and searching quickly | 01:26 |
| komputes | micahg: sorry? bgo? | 01:26 |
| micahg | bugzilla.gnome.org | 01:26 |
| komputes | sure, brb | 01:26 |
| micahg | komputes: BTW, my guess is every important package changed since that bug report :) | 01:28 |

| komputes | not much from the cover, let me delve in a bit | 01:31 |
| komputes | micahg: do you know what needs to be done to mark a bug as a duplicate of another in gnome bugzilla? | 01:34 |
| micahg | komputes: sorry, no idea | 01:36 |

| micahg | copernic: you can't | 21:40 |
| copernic | :'( | 21:41 |
| micahg | copernic: a core-dev would have to reject it | 21:41 |
| copernic | micahg, ok I posted it in the comments | 21:44 |
| micahg | copernic: it's no big deal | 21:44 |
| copernic | micahg, ah ok, thx for setting me at ease :) | 21:46 |

| malev | hi, can anyone help me with this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/497221 | 22:42 |
| dragon | Karmic took away the ability to set gdm greeter theme and to hide individual users. Does this regression qualify for a bug? | 22:42 |
| ubot4 | Launchpad bug 497221 in linux "No sound in HP Pavilion dv6z laptop with ubuntu 9.10" [Undecided,Incomplete] | 22:42 |
| dragon | malev: I assume you've been through the docs. | 22:43 |
| malev | dragon, what docs? the wiki about debbugging sound problems, yes | 22:43 |
| micahg | dragon: the second part has been filed multiple times already | 22:44 |
| dragon | micahg: could you point me to it? I've been looking. | 22:45 |
| dragon | micahg: I need a workaround for hiding a user from gdm, since I'm setting this machine for someone else. | 22:46 |
| micahg | dragon: use kdm :) | 22:46 |
| dragon | hah | 22:46 |
| micahg | dragon: I think bug 445123 | 22:46 |
| ubot4 | Launchpad bug 445123 in gdm "No GUI option to disable face browser" [Wishlist,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/445123 | 22:46 |
| dragon | ah it's a gnome thing | 22:47 |
| dragon | I thought Ubuntu folks took this away | 22:47 |
| micahg | dragon: nope, it was upstream gnoem | 22:47 |
| dragon | micahg: in that case I believe it could be done from the command line. | 22:48 |
| dragon | I think it was a matter of adding a user to a group | 22:48 |
| dragon | micahg: they rewrote GDM but not the gdmsetup utility yet. https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=587750 | 22:51 |

| dragon | but since it's already in launchpad... | 22:51 |
| micahg | dragon: regression, yes, but an upstream one :) | 22:51 |
| dragon | yes | 22:53 |
