crimsunbe here, or be square!00:54
kermiac_can someone please set both bug tasks for bug 478653 back to triaged? I have re-assigned thecorrect people to the bug but I don't have privs to set the tasks back to triaged02:05
ubot4Launchpad bug 478653 in ubuntuone-client (Ubuntu) (and 1 other project) "BadTransition: SYS_OAUTH_ERROR (affects: 124) (dups: 62)" [High,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/47865302:05
BUGabundo62 dupes?!02:06
BUGabundoautch02:06
kermiac_yeah, it's an issue that is corrently being worked on02:07
kermiac_currently, even :)02:07
=== kermiac_ is now known as kermiac
kermiacduane_design mentioned it earlier, but nothing was changed. I unassigned the person who was playing with the bug & reassigned the correct people but I can't change the status back to triaged02:08
* kermiac notices there have only been 2 +1's for my application to bug control :(02:11
* hggdh points out to kermiac that two +1 are enough02:16
hggdh:-)02:16
kermiacty hggdh, I didn't know how many were required02:17
kermiac:)02:17
kermiacbtw, belated congrats on your new job hggdh :) :)02:17
hggdhheh. Now you do... all you need now is wait for Brian to accept & add you in02:17
hggdhkermiac: thanks02:18
kermiacwas just reading through the backscroll02:18
kermiacexcellent :)02:18
kermiacso I guess I should remove myself from the mentorship page as I don't really think I'm going to need a mentor now. I added myself to that list when I though it was a required part of the process to join BC02:19
hggdhchrisccoulson: BTW, congrats ;-)02:23
hggdhkermiac: yes indeed02:25
kermiachggdh: if you have a min, can you please set the bug tasks back to triaged for bug 478653. a new user incorrectly assigned themselves & set the tasks to fix committed02:35
ubot4Launchpad bug 478653 in ubuntuone-client (Ubuntu) (and 1 other project) "BadTransition: SYS_OAUTH_ERROR (affects: 124) (dups: 62)" [High,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/47865302:35
hggdhkermiac: changed for the Ubuntu task. The other one I cannot (not in the Ubuntu universe)02:40
kermiacok, ty hggdh :)02:40
hggdhand yes, I know. I asked the LP folks to act on this idot02:41
hggdhidiot02:41
kermiacIt's strange & perhaps even wrong that a "normal" user is able to change the status of these tasks02:41
kermiacand no people who know what they are doing can not revert the changes02:42
kermiacs/no/now02:42
jpdskermiac: Anyone can change status/assignee.03:05
jpdsIt's Importance that's protected.03:05
kermiacjpds: yes, I know that. That's my point. I'm not sure exactly how the internals of LP work, but I believe it would be good to make it so that the status is protected after the bug reaches  a "triaged" state. Perhaps only allow Bugcontrol members & devs to change the status03:07
kermiacbut I don't know how practical that is or how hard it would be to implement03:07
kermiacas it stands, a "normal" LP user can change the status of an upstream task but we can't change it back to triaged. Example bug 47865303:09
ubot4Launchpad bug 478653 in ubuntuone-client (Ubuntu) (and 1 other project) "BadTransition: SYS_OAUTH_ERROR (affects: 124) (dups: 62)" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/47865303:09
nhandlerkermiac: The issue with that is that a status of Triaged tends to mean the bug has enough info for a dev to work on it. If a user wanted to work on that bug (who wasn't in bugcontrol), they would be unable to update the status to show this. The status needs to be adjustable by everyone03:10
kermiacnhandler: yes, that is a good point03:11
kermiacdoesn't seem like there would be an easy way around this issue03:11
hggdhno, there is no easy way. We like to be open, and this carries a price -- every so often we get a bit of spam03:17
hggdhbut, to tell the truth, it is very *very* low all in all. So we live with it03:17
hggdh(in other words -- the cost of 'fixing' this is higher than the cost of living with this)03:18
kermiacyes hggdh, I understand what you mean. Looking at it in that light, I tend to agree with you.03:19
arandHow would I remove the upstream Poppler link  from Bug #39321 ? (see my last comment on the bug)03:20

hggdharand: you cannot. You can set it invalid, though03:24
arandNot possible to change project to NULL or something like that?03:24
hggdharand: no03:33
hggdhno big deal03:33
arandOk, set to invalid, wasn't sure how-to at first (unlinking upstream..)03:33
arandI was thinking of editing the description to only menttion the hide-on-select issue, since the other are in another bug..03:34
=== Hellow_ is now known as Hellow
hggdhone thing you should make sure of doing is explaining why you are making the changes -- this will help whoever gets to look at the bug to understand what happened04:04
hggdhand this is it. I am going to bed.04:05
nigelbhggdh: sorry about earlier today.  I was dead tired and slept off :(04:56

nigelbcan somone help test an apport hook?06:29
nigelbI think its ready (it works fine for me:) )06:30
lifelessship it06:30
nigelbsure?06:31
nigelbokay :)06:31
lifelesswell, what do you expect to learn from someone else trying it?06:31
lifelessand whats the downside if you don't learn that before you upload?06:31
nigelbgood point ;)06:31
lifelessfor an apport helper, something that only kicks in after trouble happens, I think theres a low risk in JDI06:32
nigelbthis not that one06:33
nigelbthis is for people who wish to report an error with the package.. to run ubuntu-bug rhythmbox06:33
nigelbit makes sure that audio problems and gstreamer problems go to the right place06:34
crimsunhmm? what's your added logic to separate them?06:35
crimsun(maybe I'm misinterpreting your statement?)06:36
nigelbcrimsun: see /usr/share/apport/package-hooks/source_totem.py06:36
kklimondagreat, I just got a Xorg.0.log in .odt format..06:36
nigelbI'm using that logic with a little bit extra to add the gconf data and debug info if required06:36
nigelbkklimonda: whoa06:36
nigelbcrimsun: is that good enough?06:40
crimsunnigelb: I would just upload the changes for further testing06:42
nigelbcrimsun: doing that now.06:42
lifelesscrimsun: does video-intel do poulsboro ?06:44
ddecatorwoooow, so i was working on a problem with SANE not working properly with Epson scanners...this goes way back, and I'm finding a lot of reports about the same thing06:48
nigelbwe have a new spammer on ubuntu one bugs (if someone is still not yet aware)06:49
ddecatorgreat06:49
crimsunlifeless: I don't know offhand. My inclination is that it would require extra bits beyond just -intel, but tjaalton/bryceh/tseliot would probably know.06:49
lifelesscrimsun: just because, the question kklimonda asked is more complex these days ;)06:50
lifelessnigelb: ask in #launchpad-dev06:50
lifelessnigelb: may be someone with the CHR bits around that can help06:50
nigelblifeless: gonna open a question on launchpad soon enough06:51
lifelessnigelb: seriously, ask in #launcpad-dev06:52
nigelblifeless: okay :)06:52
nigelbjust a doubt, I have to open a bug and attach a debdiff for this... right?07:05
nigelbI mean, I got no upload rights and the only thing I can do to get the apport hook is to attach a debdiff and wait for sponsor...07:06

lifelesswe're working on the remainder07:08
nigelbI liked bzr best so far07:08

kklimondano idea though how safe is it..18:39
kklimondaand it doesn't make a freakin' sense not to use gnome keyring only because we don't have time to integrate it with U1..18:39
kklimondaargh, decisions like this make ubuntu look like it is being developed by people who doesn't have a big picture :/18:40
kklimondaok, enough of this offtopic18:40

kklimondadako3256: don't forget to use / before commands18:43
* vish returns to pings18:44
vishdako3256: let me check again...  we can also mark them security vulnerabilities18:44
vish this is a bad security flaw ! i can see my passwords in the gconf :/18:47
vishdako3256: are you bugcontrol? if so you can set it to triaged18:49
kklimondavish: but the version that is in lucid saves all account information in the desktop couch18:49
vishkklimonda: i'm on lucid18:49
vishand i can see the passwords18:49
kklimondavish: and you are probably using daily ppa or used gwibber or ppa in the past18:50
vishkklimonda: ah.. right i used the gwibber ppa in the past18:50
kklimondavish: so yes - there is a security issue but "only" in the gwibber upstream project18:50
kklimondavish: if there is any security issue in lucid depends on how are passwords stored in the desktop couch18:51
dako3256mag vish ok, ill mark it18:51
kklimondaand I have no idea about it :)18:51
vishdako3256: read what kklimonda jjust mentioned18:51

SwedeMikeis it meaningful to report platform problems for 10.04 right now? I have a core i5-661 with the new built in intel graphics that's acting up in amd64 mode (generally amd64 on this seems not stable, i386 seems fine) ?20:15

thekornrye: I looked at exporting bug activity via the api last week, it is not easy, but I think it is doable20:26
thekorni even have started a branch somewhere20:26
bcurtiswxanyone using bughugger on karmic?20:26
kermiacit would be good if someone with more knowledge than me could get something workable as we are getting a lot more spammers lately :(20:26
thekornbut it needs mmore time and discussion, as their quality standarts are very high20:26
ryethekorn, i think it is doable as well. If that is not doable then we might end up screenscraping or having a special mailbot collecting the stuff but we are just not prepared for spammers20:27
thekornhmm, I somehow don't have access to the maschine where this branch is located, so I cannot push it somewhere20:29

bcurtiswxHAHAHAHAHA20:37
bcurtiswxwell you can tell something becomes very popular when people start intentionally abusing it20:37
kermiacvery true, but we need to have *something* in place to be able to deal with the spammers as it can take hours to fix things that were changed20:38
ryei wonder whether the scripts are being written to post ads to launchpad to all bug reports. I guess this may be an attack vector as well20:41
ryesince there is no moderation for bug resports20:41
jibelkermiac, I pasted the list of bugs he touched at http://pastebin.com/d5cb1185c20:45
jibelHe started his activity today.20:45
kermiacI've noticed the account I use for launchpad has started getting hit by a LOT of spam lately too. I think they might be farming email addresses on LP :(20:46
thekornjibel: just OOC: how did you get this list?20:48
bcurtiswxkermiac: i completely agree20:49

* kermiac heads over to #launchpad to see if anyone's around20:52
thekornjibel: aha ok, I somehow hopped someone has contact to a launchpad guy with direct DB access who is able to give us such list20:53
jibelthekorn, no contact with a lp guy sadly :(20:54
ryejibel, what do you want to do?20:55
jibelthekorn, but you can retrace nearly all bug activity from the mailing list.20:55
thekornmaybe we should try to establish such path, but that's something for next week20:56
jibelrye, with the list ?20:56
* bcurtiswx plays jeopardy theme song on repeat for kermiac20:56
thekornjibel: but if I were a spammer I would make exactly this changes which do not send bugmails20:56
* kermiac laughs20:57
kermiacthanks bcurtiswx20:57
bcurtiswxit may be a while...20:57
kermiacdoes anyone know how to "un-nominate" for a release?20:57
kermiaci.e. remove " Nominated  for Karmic  by Fail2Ban (failtoban: 328)  "20:57
jibelkermiac, you can't20:57
thekornkermiac: nothing you can do20:57
kermiacok, thanks20:58
jibelthekorn, If I were a spammer I would use the lp api because I'm too lazy to do it manually20:58
thekornjibel: sure20:59
ryejibel, this will be the next wave, I suppose21:00
ryethe API does not let us to read the activity info to recover the bugs, so when that starts, we are unarmed21:01
thekornrye: I'll work on exposing this, if noone beats me doing it, I promise ;)21:02
ryethekorn, but this will only help to recover after the disaster21:02
ryethekorn, the real thing to do is to prevent it21:03
jibelSooner or later lp will have to implement some kind of anti-spam feature and reserve the api to selected teams.21:03
thekornok, here is my crazy idea/masterplan: don't redo such spam!21:04
thekorninstead identify spammer and auto-redirect them to staging21:04
ryejibel, I guess we are at "later" stage, Ubuntu is that popular now.21:04
thekornso they get the feeling the can do whatever they like21:04
ryethekorn, yep, and test launchpad for oopses. wise!21:05
kermiacI seem to remember redirecting them to stagin was mentioned last time. seems like a good workaround 'till a more permanant solution is found21:12

ericrostwhen adding a hidden SSID network, the ipv4 settings should default to dhcp (most common choice so would be easier for non-techies) had wife and friend bitten by this in last month. Package to file against?22:22
