[00:00] <chrisccoulson> hggdh - apport should catch SIGABRT now
[00:01] <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/
[00:02] <chrisccoulson> it never caught SIGABRT before because the interesting bit is often in the assertion message, which couldn't be captured before
[00:04] <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
[00:05] <hggdh> sometimes the buffer was optimised out
[00:07] <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
[01:04] <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.

[01:06] <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
[01:10] <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
[01:15] <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?
[01:16] <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.
[01:17] <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
[01:18] <micahg> yofel: yes, but the bug was for the full release
[01:19] <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
[01:20] <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?
[01:21] <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]
[01:22] <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
[01:23] <micahg> komputes: what makes you think an update fixed it?
[01:25] <komputes> micahg: personal experience
[01:26] <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
[01:28] <micahg> komputes: BTW, my guess is every important package changed since that bug report :)

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

[21:40] <micahg> copernic: you can't
[21:41] <copernic> :'(
[21:41] <micahg> copernic: a core-dev would have to reject it
[21:44] <copernic> micahg, ok I posted it in the comments

[22:42] <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]
[22:43] <dragon> malev: I assume you've been through the docs.
[22:43] <malev> dragon, what docs? the wiki about debbugging sound problems, yes
[22:44] <micahg> dragon: the second part has been filed multiple times already
[22:45] <dragon> micahg: could you point me to it? I've been looking.
[22:46] <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
[22:47] <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
[22:48] <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
[22:51] <dragon> micahg: they rewrote GDM but not the gdmsetup utility yet. https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=587750
[22:51] <ubot4> Gnome bug 587750 in general "GDM rewrite needs a configuration GUI panel similar to 2.20 (gdmsetup)" [Minor,New]
[22:51] <dragon> it's a regression
[22:51] <dragon> but since it's already in launchpad...
[22:51] <micahg> dragon: regression, yes, but an upstream one :)
[22:53] <dragon> yes
