mvoara: about to go for lunch, but I will read scrollback11:16
aramvo, ok, let me know when you're back, I would love your help debugging bug 55078711:17
ubot4Launchpad bug 550787 in computer-janitor (Ubuntu) "Computer Janitor freezes during the analysis (affects: 1)" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/55078711:17
mvoara: *weeh* that is most likely a nasty gtk/threading/locking issue, the idea was to get rid of this by using a dbus based backend service instead of using a thread based one12:23

davmor2morning cr3 fader_13:49
fader_davmor2: Hey dude13:50
jcastrocr3: ping15:11
cr3jcastro: hey dude, what's up?15:11
jcastrohi!15:11
jcastrohey did you know the hardware testing submission doesn't work?15:12
jcastrohowever I collected people's submission.xml from the jam15:12
jcastroand have some loco's that did the same thing15:12
cr3jcastro: I've seen some bugs and submitted a fix this weekend15:12
jcastrook so what do I do with these submissions?15:12
jcastrocr3: also, the text strings need a review, some say to right click on the sound for instance, and it's left click now, etc.15:12
cr3jcastro: unfortunately, lots of meta information needs to be added to that submission.xml file in order to be acceptable to launchpad, so I wouldn't hold my breath15:13
jcastrocr3: ok so I should tell people to redo it then?15:13
cr3jcastro: but, just in case, you might like to try sending to abel deuring15:13
cr3jcastro: I learned about the invalid string after the UI freeze unfortunately, so I can't submit changes to strings :(15:14
jcastroeven if it's obviously wrong? right vs. left?15:14
cr3jcastro: I'll try to find the proper channels to see if I can get an exception15:15
jcastrook I will tell our people to rerun their tests15:16
jcastrobummer, we got a bunch of tests done over the weekend. :(15:16
cr3jcastro: wait for version 9.1 of checkbox though, I can't push the new package myself, I'm no core-dev15:17
jcastrook15:17
jcastrohow long was it broken?15:17
cr3jcastro: I'll grab mathiaz as soon as I see him today to review and push my changes15:17
cr3jcastro: the problem doesn't affect everyone as far as I know15:18
jcastrowell, it affected like 10 of us15:18
jcastroand for sure some guys in catalan15:18
jcastrobut I haven't heard from others15:18
cr3jcastro: just to make sure, you're referring to bug #536645, right?15:19
ubot4Launchpad bug 536645 in checkbox (Ubuntu Lucid) (and 2 other projects) "backend crashed with ValueError in loads() (affects: 369) (dups: 38)" [Medium,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/53664515:19
cr3if so, I think I'll change the importance to critical15:20
jcastronope, hold on let me find it15:20
cr3jcastro: if it's not that one, I'll have it fixed this morning and try to get it in 9.1 today15:20
jcastrohttps://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/checkbox/+bug/53101015:22
ubot4jcastro: Error: Bug #531010 is private.15:22
jcastrocr3: that's the bug we all ran into at our jam15:22
jcastrono one could submit to lp15:23
jcastrocr3: come to think of it I don't think I saw it crash all weekend though!15:23
cr3jcastro: awesomo! I've assigned the bug to myself and will look into it today, thanks for bringing this to my attention, it fell off my radar15:25
jcastrohas no one else seen the hwdb being down?15:25
jcastrohave there been submissions this weekend?15:25
jcastroI am just wondering15:26
jcastrobecause I've been telling locos to hit that hard15:26
cr3jcastro: I couldn't know, I don't have access to that kind of information15:26
jcastroah15:27
cr3jcastro: I just asked abel to join, he's the right person to ask15:27
jcastrook15:27
jcastrohi abel!15:27
adeuringhi jcastro15:27
jcastrowe had a bunch of hwdb submissions this weekend that couldn't be submitted15:27
jcastrowas wondering if it's just hosed for everyone or is there some bug in checkbox or ... ?15:28
jcastrobecause we've been telling loco's to do hw submissions during jams, etc.15:28
adeuringjcastro: let me check the log files...15:28
cr3adeuring: there is a bug in checkbox, that's been confirmed, just wondering if some folks have been able to submit at least15:28
adeuringcr3, jcastro gahhh. empty log files.... Somethings went badly wrong, I assume. Need to ask the losas15:31
jcastrocan you guys get to the bottom of this?15:31
cr3jcastro: I'm all over checkbox, thanks for bringing this to our attention15:31
jcastrowe had a bunch of locos get together this past weekend and this really sucks. :(15:31
cr3adeuring: if you need anything from me, I'm all yours15:32
jcastrocan we ensure that for next cycle this doesn't happen?15:32
cr3jcastro: I can't think of a way to prevent this kind of problem for sure, it seems there are lots of moving parts15:34
cr3jcastro: I'm sorry this is not the answer you were looking for, I just don't want to give you false hopes :(15:35
jcastroyeah15:36
jcastroit's just that if we ask people to do testing jams and have the hwdb submission on the wiki then it should work!15:36
jcastroor maybe we can test it the day before or something15:36
cr3jcastro: right, I can commit to fixing anything the day before if something is broken, but I'm very bad at remembering to do periodic tasks like testing something before a given date15:44
jcastrocr3: oh don't worry, I am good at the last part. :D15:45
cr3jcastro: so we can tag team, awesome!15:46
cr3jcastro: a few days before would be preferable though, so that we give time to the core-dev team to push my changes to the distro15:47
jcastrocr3: I'll put it in the jam planning so we do it ahead of time, etc.15:47
cr3jcastro: dude, you're in for a huge hug next time I see you!15:48
hggdhcr3: BTW -- when I ran checkbox on my laptop, no harddrives were found. Knwon issue?15:56
cr3hggdh: yep, fixed15:56
cr3... but not released15:56
hggdhcr3: you rock, sir15:56
hggdh... still ;-)15:56
cr3hggdh: I'm really happy with my fix, I've finally gotten rid of lshw15:58
cr3on the upside, I submitted a patch to lshw so that it outputs valid xml almost a couple years ago and I recently learned it's been applied upstream. yay!15:59
adeuringcr3, jcastro: the "missing HWDB submissions" are clearly an evil bug in Launchpad.16:02
jcastroyargh!16:02
cr3adeuring: could it be an evil bug in checkbox too which might submit invalid xml as far as utf-8 encoding?16:03
jcastroadeuring: how long has it been like this?16:03
adeuringcr3: since a few days... Need to check for more specific details, I assume (need to check that too) that LP now requires a referer header for each POST request.16:04
* adeuring can't currently use firefox to edit LP bugs....16:04
adeuringbecause I configured FF not to send the referer header...16:04
KioobHi. I've installed an Ubuntu Lucid from debootstrap, I would like to change the system language but can only change for the current User (the buttons "Apply System-Wide" and "Install / Remove Languages" are disabled)17:11
Kioobwhat I forgot ?17:11
davmor2Kioob: are you sure they are grey'd out or do they just look like they are?17:13
KioobI verified, they are disabled17:15
Kioobmy User is only in group "sudo"17:16
Kioobmaybe I should add him in other groups17:17

bladernr_I asked this in ubuntu-kernel too, but can anyone tell me what package handles the "Default Application" windows that pop up when you connect a USB device to a Lucid system?19:02
fader_bladernr_: I think it's just nautilus if you're running gnome, isn't it?19:30
bladernr_I think so... was just seeking clarity before opening a bug... I went ahead and filed against nautilus anyway :-)19:30
hggdhthere are no ISOs for today?21:29
sbeattiehggdh: the live cd images are there, but yeah, looks like none of the d-i images built.21:33
hggdhsbeattie: yeah, just saw the reports.html entry21:33
