ubottuLaunchpad bug 526581 in ubiquity "ubi-migrationassistant fails w/exit code 141" [Medium,Triaged]07:46
araev, I assigned temporarily to cjwatson, but you might be a better person to have a look to it07:46
araev, morning, by the way :)07:46
evara: ah, looking into it now.  Thanks, and good morning :)09:05
evsuperm1: thanks for the get_mod_bool fix.  That was my intention, but ended up as a stupid typo on my part.09:36
cjwatsonev: so, what did I do wrong in migrationassistant? I declared that it was supposed to run after partman, but that bug looks for all the world as though parted_server isn't running ...10:12
cjwatson(and there's a minor issue with the PartedServer instance going out of scope and having its destructor run *after* dropping privileges, but I'm not sure I care10:14
cjwatson)10:14
cjwatsonI see a slideshow parse error in that debug log too, which is a bit worrying10:14
evindeed, it's after partman in the actual order, so order_plugins isn't broken (though it looks like it's getting placed after the summary).10:25
cjwatsonew, that would explain it10:38
cjwatsonso we need something to force summary to go last except for install?10:38
cjwatsonor something10:38
thomasev, cjwatson: what copyright license is ubiquity released under? there is no COPYING file.10:42
persiathomas: debian/copyright has the interesting bits, with d-i sources having their own debian/copyrights10:43
thomaspersia: does that apply to both code and images?10:45
ograimages ?10:46
persiathomas: It is intended to be comprehensive, but I'm not authoritative on the matter.10:46
ograthomas, what kind of images do you refer to ? slideshow graphics ?10:47
cjwatsondebian/copyright is authoritative10:49
evcjwatson: I'd have to dig in the code to be sure, but surely BEFORE = ['summary'] in migrationassistant would do the right thing, no?10:49
cjwatsonev: oh, yeah10:49
evafter all, summary sources data from m-a10:49
* ev tries10:50
CIA-3ubiquity: evand * r3836 ubiquity/ (2 files in 2 dirs):11:46
CIA-3ubiquity: Specify migrationassistant's order as simply coming before summary,11:46
CIA-3ubiquity: as setting it as coming after user-setup and partman was causing it11:46
CIA-3ubiquity: to come after summary (LP: #526581).11:46
ev^ I'd like to fix this properly by rewriting order_plugins as a topological sort, so that we can specify both BEFORE and AFTER and ubiquity will do the right thing.11:46
davmor2ev, cjwatson: still get the bug with live desktop saying there is a volume with software on it11:52
cjwatsonbleh11:52
cjwatsonI thought I'd nailed that to the floor11:53
aracjwatson, do you know if  Spanish lang packs are in the CD?11:58
cjwatsonwhich CD?11:59
aracjwatson, sorry, alternate11:59
cjwatsonhttp://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily/current/lucid-alternate-i386.list says no12:00
aracjwatson, OK, it makes sense now, thanks12:01
cjwatson(for desktop CDs, you need to look at both .manifest and .list, BTW)12:01
cjwatsondavmor2: is there a cdrom entry in /etc/apt/sources.list?12:01
davmor2cjwatson: no all http://12:03
cjwatsoncould I see /var/log/casper.log?12:04
cjwatsonFWIW I'm not seeing this behaviour here, in kvm12:04
cjwatsonso I did at least manage to successfully fix it for myself :)12:04
cjwatsonit might depend on the CD kernel driver in use or something12:05
davmor2cjwatson: yeap just juggling a few things for a second and then I'll get back to you12:07

mptogra, thomas was interested in the timezone map in particular.15:27
ograah15:27
mptIt would be nice if that same map was used in Time & Date Settings (and in the clock applet).15:27
ograi thought the slideshow, which is in a different package and surely has its own copyright file15:28
aracjwatson, the iSCSI test cases are now in the server images under "optional testcases": http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/test/366615:39
aracjwatson, also, I wrote an example using KVM & Virt-manager15:40
aracjwatson, you can check it at http://testcases.qa.ubuntu.com/Install/ServeriSCSIRoot/KVMExample15:40
aracjwatson, to see if the steps are OK, or this is supposed to be easier for users15:40
evmichaelforrest: sorry to be so late in reply; I was at Pycon from Thursday to yesterday.15:50
evmichaelforrest: re installing extras> how do you want to handle the case whereby we don't have a network connection?15:51
ev(figured this would be quicker than email)15:51
michaelforrestev: i figured it would be deferred15:52
evso, not show the page at all, or somehow queue the install of the packages up for when a connection is present?15:53
michaelforrestideally queue the install ready for when a connection is present.15:53
michaelforrestbut if this is too hard for now (should really have a framework for that!) then possibly don't show the page15:53
evokay15:54
michaelforrestalthough if we're numbering installer steps this is a proble!15:54
michaelforrest*problem! unless you calculate based on whether there's a network connection15:54
evbut the numbers are going away next cycle, right?  So I'm not too concerned about that15:55
evI am worried about how we can figure out if we can hit archive.ubuntu.com, and how happy the powers at be are with us running /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh15:56
evwhile not breaking on captive portals and not downloading a massive amount of updates (so no to just running apt-get update first, which would checksum the download :) )15:58
evI guess we could do the http://www.apple.com/library/test/success.html thing15:58
ev(sorry for thinking out loud)15:58
cjwatsonara: thanks, much appreciated, the last bits of fix-iscsi-root are about second on my to-do list at the moment16:06
superm1ev, it looks like that function for copying oem-config keys in install.py doesnt work still since the db is locked16:20
superm1(i haven't been able to test all the way up to that part until now for other extenuating circumstances)16:21
evline?16:21
superm12147/install.py16:22
cjwatsonyeah, that can't work, why not do it in bin/ubiquity with the other debconf-copydb stuff?16:27
evworks for me16:30
evsuperm1: http://paste.ubuntu.com/383106/ - look okay to you?16:35
superm1ev, yeah that's probably sane16:36
evthanks16:38
CIA-3ubiquity: evand * r3842 ubiquity/ (bin/ubiquity debian/changelog scripts/install.py):16:39
CIA-3ubiquity: Copy oem-config debconf questions only after we're done using the16:39
CIA-3ubiquity: database.16:39
cjwatsonmaybe we should copy oem-config/* only in oem-config mode?16:45
kirklandcjwatson: i was recovering a broken system yesterday with a Lucid server ISO, and I noticed that /sbin/fsck.ext4 was not in the rescue image16:47
kirklandcjwatson: is this something we could rectify easily, seeing as we're defaulting to ext4 on new installs?16:47
aracjwatson, <ara> davmor2, can you test something quickly on real HW?16:48
ara<davmor2> go on16:48
ara<ara> davmor2, kubuntu desktop, clicking on "Install Kubuntu" (without passing by the live env)16:48
ara davmor2, does it start correctly for you?16:48
ara<davmor2> might take a minute or 216:48
ara<davmor2> ara: running now16:48
ara<ara> davmor2, at it starts ubiquity correctly?16:48
ara<davmor2> ara: nope blank screen after the plymouth logo disappears16:48
ara<ara> davmor2, same thing...16:48
cjwatsonkirkland: probably, for now you can just symlink it to e2fsck16:50
aracjwatson, ok, known issue16:50
cjwatsonara: Riddell would know more16:50
kirklandcjwatson: ah, okay, so e2fsck is capability of checking/repairing ext4 as well16:50
cjwatsonit's the same binary - 'ls -li /sbin/fsck.ext*' and you'll see they're hardlinks on a normal system :)16:52
cjwatsonkirkland: pending upload, remind me after a3 just in case?16:54
cjwatsonactually never mind I'll put it in the *short* to-do list16:54
kirklandcjwatson: doh, cool, thanks;  will remind you later16:55

jcolehello everyone, ive remastered an ubuntu install cd and noticed the sources.list mirrors after the install are not the same as on my livecd... does the ubuntu installer get the values from debconf?23:09
cjwatsonno, apt-setup generates them.  in this case, see bug 3915623:11
