AnAntit is obvious that the /etc/default/sl-modem-daemon (ie. a conf file) has been damaged or tampered with severely, anyways it caused the package state to be not be fully installed08:56
AnAntwhat's the optimum solution: shall I attach to the user the default conf file & tell him to put it there ? or is there  a way to reinstall the package (& overwriting the conf files)08:57

Keybukthe patch is still wrong12:00
Keybukudev cannot function without the netlink socket12:01
stgraberyes, I know that, I just don't think "cannot function" means it should segfault ...12:02
stgraberin a VZ environment we don't have any kind of device anyway, so we really don't need udev to work, we just need it to not make the software crash because it segfaults ...12:02
KeybukI'd be happy if your patch made it an assertion error12:03
stgraberas I mentioned in the bug report, I really don't know much about udev's code and so don't have a clue about its error codes, so if you know what that function should return when it doesn't get a valid structure as parameter, I'll be happy to change the patch12:04
Keybukif you pass invalid data to functions, that's always a programming error, thus an assertion error12:04
stgraberKeybuk: ok, I'm looking at moving it to making an assertion error. Just wondering why it's not the case for all the other functions in that file that simply "return NULL" when udev_monitor is NULL, any idea ?12:10
Keybukno idea, you'd have to talk to upstream12:10

JFocjwatson, I have a bug that you will probably be interested in: bug 57874214:04
ubottuLaunchpad bug 578742 in linux "Btrfs device balancing does not work" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/57874214:04
JFoI apologize in advance :-)14:05
cjwatsonJFo: not too bothered yet, assuming that it can be forwarded upstream and fixed in maverick; at this point, given the lack of userspace support, I only care about problems that would make it difficult for us to implement that support14:07
cwillu_at_workJFo, anything less than an rc of 2.6.34 is considered obsolete and basically dangerous to use by #btrfs :p14:07
JFooh indeed14:08
JFomy concern is, how to address this with the reporter. Plus my boss (pgraner) told me to punt to cjwatson :-)14:08
cjwatsonJFo: um, I don't see how it's anything much to do with me.  I have many of the tasks to implement userspace support in maverick, but kernel support for btrfs is not my problem14:11
JFoheh14:11
JFono problem14:11
JFomy desire is to respond that it is unsupported14:11
cwillu_at_worka dkms package + more recent btrfs userspace would make upstream happier with us :p14:11
JFoso that is the plan14:11
cjwatsonJFo: that would be inappropriate14:11
JFoand yet, that is what I am told from both sides14:11
JFowell *currently* unsupported14:12
cjwatsonJFo: the correct way to deal with it would be to test whether it's fixed in a more recent release; if it is, it can be closed as Fix Released in maverick; if it isn't, it should be forwarded upstream14:12
cjwatsonjust closing it as "unsupported in lucid" deprives us of a source of problem reports, surely14:12
cjwatsonit cannot be the case that all possible bugs people might file on lucid's btrfs are automatically fixed in maverick's14:12
cwillu_at_workcjwatson, a dkms build of the latest or running 2.6.34 would suffice for that;  upstream thinks it's saner to use a dkms build though14:13
cjwatsoncwillu_at_work: sure, my point is it should be actually tested before closing it14:13
cwillu_at_workfair enough;  a ppa with up-to-date modules would be useful14:14
cwillu_at_workthere's lots of issues with btrfs in 2.6.32 though, somewhat fewer in 2.6.33;  bug reports from those versions shouldn't be upstreamed until they've been tested with more recent versions imo is all I'm saying14:15
cjwatsonJFo: to clarify, saying it's unsupported is fine, but not in itself a reason to close the bug since after all we do ship it, and the reason we ship it is to collect early feedback so automatically discarding that feedback is a bit odd14:15
cjwatson(I think the fact that people have to go through contortions to get their system to boot with a btrfs / is a fairly clear indication that it's unsupported in lucid)14:16
cwillu_at_workJFo, you should mention on that bug that running btrfs on rootfs is actively dangerous;  there's a dpkg bug that isn't fixed in lucid that hurts _really_ bad with btrfs14:17
cwillu_at_work/var/lib/dpkg/info corruption specifically14:17
cwillu_at_workhttp://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=57589114:17

cjwatsoncwillu_at_work: dpkg 1.15.5.6ubuntu414:18
cwillu_at_workah, goodie14:18
cwillu_at_workI've been bind mounting my /boot onto /var/lib/dpkg for a while because of that :)14:18
cwillu_at_workin related non-news, I'm trying to get btrfs to build as a dkms module, but I keep tripping on a permission error during dkms build14:21
cwillu_at_workah, got it;  symlinked to the root of the tree instead of fs/btrfs14:36

psusiKeybuk: wait, what's this about udev not creating dev nodes anymore, but devtmpfs instead?  yet another kernel fs to auto create dev nodes?  I thought that was one of the reasons udev was made, to get away from devfs and move the dev node creation to user space?15:51
Keybukthat was *last year* :p15:51
Keybuknow udev doesn't create device nodes15:51
pittipsusi: well, the original objection was about the kernel defining names and permissions, not so much the actual mknod(), AFAIR15:52
Keybukquest scott% cat /etc/issue.net15:52
psusiso it's back to a new devfs like kernel fs?  ack...15:52
KeybukUbuntu 10.04 LTS15:52
Keybukquest scott% mount | grep "on /dev"15:52
Keybuknone on /dev type devtmpfs (rw,mode=0755)15:52
Keybukpitti: which is also ironic, since now we make the kernel define the names and don't let you change them in userspace ;-)15:52
cjwatsonit's not really as much like devfs as all that15:52
macoKeybuk: does the kernel just go in cycles about how to handle this stuff?15:52
pittiKeybuk: but we still control permissions and symlinks15:52
Keybukpitti: right15:53
pittiwhich the original devfs didn't15:53
cjwatsonthe problems with devfs were (a) it had its own special and unique snowflake naming scheme (b) it introduced a huge pile of new kernel infrastructure just for itself (c) it didn't allow any userspace control at all15:53
psusiso wait... you can no longer use a udev rule to persistently name a given disk /dev/sda even if the kernel detects it in a different order?15:53
cjwatsondevtmpfs doesn't suffer from these problems15:53
pittipsusi: you can do arbitrary symlinks, but not rename the "master" node15:53
Keybukpsusi: correct, you can only use a udev rule to persistently add a symlink to the disk with the name that is memorable to you15:53
macopsusi: yay for UUIDs?15:53
Keybuk/dev/porn -> /dev/sdXY  where the XY is whatever it is this boot15:53
psusithat seems like a big step backwards?15:54
pittipsusi: NB that even without devtmpfs current udev does not support renaming any more :)15:55
Keybuknot really15:55
pittibut symlinks are really just as good15:55
Keybukallowing renaming of device nodes caused huge numbers of problems and gained nothing15:55
psusiit did?15:55
Keybuksymlinks work perfectly for "personal names"15:55
Keybukpsusi: yes, for example, swap /dev/sda and /dev/sdb atomically ;-)15:55
psusihrm... I suppose15:55
psusiwhy need to do it atomically?  just have udev create them with the correct name in the first place15:56
Keybukand there's benefit to having a "master node" whose name matches the standard at all times15:56
Keybukand whose name matches the sysfs object too15:56
Keybukrenaming sda to sdb would not rename /sys/devices/.../sd15:56
Keybukrenaming sda to sdb would not rename /sys/devices/.../sda15:56
psusihrm... true... I have been getting annoyed lately running that script to parse the ureadahead output and it gets confused because the kernel name listed is dm-5,  but there is no /dev/dm-515:57

=== barry_ is now known as barry
psusinow... I still see an issue with the naming of dm nodes15:59
Keybukwe're hoping that the devmapper kernel-side will start putting NAME= into its uevents15:59
Keybukerr, DEVNAME= sorry15:59
psusiif the native kernel name is dm-1 for the partition on dm-0... does that mean that devtmpfs will create dm-1, then udev will see that it is a partition and make a link for dm-0p1 to point to it?15:59
Keybukif that's the desired behaviour, that makes sense15:59
Keybukdm016:00
Keybukdm1 -> dm0p116:00
Keybukdm2 -> dm0p216:00
Keybukdm316:00
Keybukdm4 -> dm3p116:00
Keybukdoesn't seem terrible16:00
Keybukexcept I got my arrows the wrong way around :)16:00
psusipersonally I don't like the p in there, but can live with it... but really it seems cumbersome to map dm-1 to dm-0p1 rather than just partition dm-0... seems the kernel side really needs to just support partitions like md now does16:00
Keybukthat would be better, I agree16:01

ubottuLaunchpad bug 572776 in ubuntu "Ubuntu should provide update packages for download and use for offline users" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/57277619:35
Damascenejust for reference19:35
nxvlbdrung: not as far as i remember, or we patched that aswell19:35
nxvlmdeslaur: ^^19:36
nxvlmdeslaur: is about openssl19:36
bdrungnxvl: "Those can't be striped out, please see changelog entry for 0.9.8k-7ubuntu2 and 0.9.8k-7ubuntu3 for more information"19:36
mdeslaurbdrung: hmm...the pc directory was present because the patches are currently _applied_ in the source tree19:38
bdrungnxvl: Configure and util/perlpath.pl are modified directly. so there should be no problem in putting these changes into patches.19:38
nxvlbdrung: actually, is source format 3.0, so those are quilt patches anyway19:38
nxvllet me find the wiki19:39
bdrungnxvl: yes, but i want to avoid debian/patches/debian-changes-0.9.8n-1ubuntu119:39
nxvlbdrung: configure was an issue too, because it didn't clean or something, mdeslaur knows more about the issue since he fixed it last time19:40
nxvlan please get in touch with him since he had some plans for this upload aswell, or something19:41
bdrungmdeslaur: ping19:42
mdeslaurbdrung: yeah19:42
bdrungmdeslaur: i was talking with nxvl about openssl19:43
mdeslaurbdrung: are you reviewing it?19:44
bdrungmdeslaur: the new package has "direct" changes and are put into debian/patches/debian-changes-0.9.8n-1ubuntu1 due to dpkg-source 3.0 (quilt).19:44
bdrungmdeslaur: yes19:44
mdeslaurhmm...I'm not sure how that will work with source 3.019:45
bdrungit would be nice to have debian-changes-0.9.8n-1ubuntu1 reverted back to proper patches19:45
mdeslaurbdrung: maybe the FTBFS issue is resolved now that the package has been migrated to 3.019:45
bdrungit should work with 3.019:45
mdeslaurbdrung: someone will need to test it with proper patches to see if it will build on all archs19:46
bdrungmdeslaur: it's just an issue of building twice19:46
mdeslaurbdrung: right, the patches wouldn't un-apply cleanly before, so the build would fail19:47
bdrungyes, but 3.0 (quilt) does not unapply the patch19:47
bdrungDamascene: i use apt-mirror to mirror the complete archive. then i transport this on an hdd to the networkless computer19:48
Damascenedo you want some one to download the whole ubutnu repo?19:48
bdrungDamascene: i must admit that this is an overkill for just having the updates ;)19:49
Damascenekeryx seems fine but I've not tested it yet19:50
DamasceneI mean not so much testing19:50
Damascenebut having the packages from ubuntu would be fine too19:50
bdrungnxvl: the package has many lintian error and warnings19:58
nxvlok, just unsubscribe -sponsors and i will take a closer look after work19:58
nxvland please add that infor to the bug report19:59
nxvli assume plane-merging isn't as good as it sounded :P19:59
bdrungnxvl: i think it's better to work with debian to resolve the lintian errors19:59
bdrungnxvl: the clean target isn't clean20:00
nxvlmdeslaur, kees, jdstrand: next cicle i won't touch openssl, enough headache for 2 releases!20:03
nxvl:D20:03
micahgshould the libgs8 patch be taking an extra 1.5MB?20:13
DaenythWill pbuilder run easily on a non-ubuntu host?20:28
DaenythRight not I build in an ubuntu vm on arch linux host, but that's rather slow. chroot would be much nicer20:28
Daenythis that easily set up?20:29

pochu!pbuilder | Daenyth20:33
ubottuDaenyth: pbuilder is a system to easily build packages in a clean chroot environment. To get started with PBuilder, see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/PbuilderHowto20:33
Daenythpochu: those instructions assume you are running on ubuntu20:34
pochuDaenyth: what's your host?20:36
Daenytharch linux20:37
pochuit works. I dunno about arch linux instructions or success stories there though20:37
DaenythI mean, if it's been known to work on at least *some* non-ubuntu systems, I can wing it from there20:38
DaenythI just wanted to know if pbuilder will break if not run on ubuntu20:38
DaenythI can't imagine it needs to know *that* much about the host system...20:38
ScottKIt will run on Debian.  Not sure about anywhere else.20:39
joaopintothere were some pbuilder packages on arch, check google :P20:39
DaenythI'll look into that20:39
joaopintothere is debootstrap, according to google20:39
Daenythwell yeah20:40
joaopintochroot/debootstrap should be sufficient to install a debian base system20:40
Daenythhrm20:40
Daenythyes true20:40
cwillu_at_workjoaopinto, debootstrap has a specific target for pbuilder in fact :p21:04
smosercan someone clarify ?21:12
smosergrub 1.98-1ubuntu6 is grub 221:12
smoserright?21:12
ScottKsmoser: It is.21:12
smoseryeah, i see that now 'apt-cache show grub2 | grep Version'21:12
smoserjust confusing. thanks though.21:12

shtylmananyone have any git-buildpackage experience? ... is it possible to build without cleaning? it seems to want to clean all the time22:12
shtylmandoes bzr buildpackage have a noclean mode?22:13
slangasekshtylman: bzr-buildpackage doesn't clean, it just exports (which will ignore files in the working directory that bzr doesn't know about).  If you want to skip the redundant clean afterwards, you would run 'bzr bd -- -nc'22:15
slangasek(to tell debuild not to call debian/rules clean)22:15
shtylmanslangasek: thanks22:16
* ScottK gives kees a hug.22:17
shtylmanif I have a project that builds with scons... is there something (env var or whatnot) that I can put in the debian/rules file to basically pass the -j flag onto scons when dpkg-buildpackage runs it?22:25
xnoxshtylman, dh supports scons22:26
xnox%:22:26
xnox       dh --parallel $@22:26
shtylmanum... I don't follow :/22:26
xnoxthis will pass -j flag to scons configure / build if DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=parallel=X22:27
xnoxis set22:27
shtylmansorry for my newbieness :)22:27
xnoxshtylman, read22:27
xnox$ man debhelper22:27
xnox$ man dh_auto_configure22:27
shtylmank22:27
xnox$ man dh_auto_build22:27

micahgtkamppeter: should the libgs8 update take an extra 1.5MB?22:31
tkamppetermicahg, which libgs8 update? The recent SRU?22:32
micahgtkamppeter: yes22:32
shtylmanxnox: were you implying that it would automatically pass that to the build system? or that I need to make sure the rules file must have something special beyond running scons in the build-stamp target (which is what happens right now)22:33
xnoxshtylman, dh $@ will automagically handle parallel, strip, optimize options for you. Beyond the two line snippet you shouldn't need anything else =)22:34
shtylmanxnox: gotcha... but from my memory of makefiles %: is a catch all ... why would I want to use that specifically?22:34
shtylmanright now, the rules file has a build target that calls scons itself22:35
shtylmanis that wrong?22:35
xnoxshtylman, you can do that =)22:35
ScottKIt's not wrong, but it may make it harder than it has to be.22:35
xnoxand yes %: is catch all22:35
xnoxbut that's the beauty of it22:36
xnoxread22:36
xnox$ man dh22:36
shtylmanheh22:36
xnoxdh build22:36
shtylmanI think my rules file is not including debhelper... which is part of the problem :)22:36
xnoxruns configure, build, test (with policy complaint options for most of buildsystems)22:36
xnoxdh binary (makes sure the software is build installed and all dh_* scripts are run in correct order)22:36
xnoxdh clean (does buildsystem clean and cleans all stamps & etc)22:37
tkamppetermicahg, this is strange, the patch cannot generate another 1.5MB of code. Perhaps a build server problem.22:38
micahgtkamppeter: .deb files seem to be the same size22:39
xnoxshtylman, bzr branch lp:~dmitrij.ledkov/+junk/dh-style22:40
xnoxshtylman, this branch has presentation about dh & 5 samples on how to use it =)22:40
shtylmanxnox: nice :)22:40
tkamppetermicahg, where is the difference then? The /usr/lib/libgs.so.8.71 file?22:40
micahgtkamppeter: I'm pulling them down now to check22:40
micahgtkamppeter: yes, I'll pastebin22:43
micahgtkamppeter: http://pastebin.com/eLvvw7Sr22:44
micahgtkamppeter: BTW, I'm on amd6422:47
tkamppetermicahg, unfortunately, I cannot help here, best is you ask a gcc expert.22:49
micahgtkamppeter: k, thanks22:49
