| arand | If I want to debug fsck failing with an error when user cancels the check, what would I do? Is this backtrace useless?: http://pastebin.com/MZkMc1UN (I lack all kinds of gdb-foo). | 03:14 |
| psusi | what's to debug? if they canceled the check, that is an error | 03:14 |
| nxvl | oh, ok thanks! | 03:15 |
| arand | psusi: So "fsck.ext4: Inode bitmap not loaded while setting block group checksum info" exit code 8. Is correct behaviour for fsck on user cancelling the check? | 03:16 |
| psusi | arand, no, that's fsck finding an error with the fs, not being canceled | 03:16 |
| psusi | wait, no... | 03:17 |
| arand | psusi: But there are no errors in the filesystem, if fsck runs through okay. | 03:17 |
| arand | Error is _only_ seen when it is cancelled. | 03:17 |
| psusi | sounds like an assertion failure triggered by the sigint... search the code for that string | 03:17 |
| psusi | sounds like the canceling tries to do some cleanup in the SIGINT handler, and part of that cleanup is trying to write out the inode allocation bitmap, which an assertion check makes sure is actually loaded first and it isn't | 03:18 |
| psusi | it may not be loaded either because it has not been loaded yet at the time of the SIGINT, or because that block group's inode allocation bitmap is uninitialized | 03:19 |

| arand | psusi: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/bugs/582035 is the bug, I think at least 80% of what you're saying is over my head :/ So please put a comment if you've got some good theories :) | 03:22 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu bug 582035 in e2fsprogs "User cancel of fsck gives: "fsck.ext4: Inode bitmap not loaded while setting block group checksum"" [Undecided,Confirmed] | 03:22 |
| psusi | arand, first thing I'd do is search the source code for the string "Inode bitmap not loaded while" | 03:23 |
| arand | psusi: I'm on it. | 03:24 |
| psusi | arand, my guess is you will find an assert() with that string in it and that assertion is failing because of a race condition in which the inode allocation bitmap is not loaded yet, but should be eventually... and that could be a little tricky to fix | 03:24 |
| psusi | but I have a feeling that probably it is not loaded because that block group's inode table is uninitialized in the first place.. meaning there are no inodes used in that block group so the allocation table is not actually valid and a flag says it is unused, assume it's all empty | 03:25 |
| psusi | fixing that should be as simple as putting in a check for the uninitialized flag in the code trying to flush the allocation bitmap and bail out of it is set | 03:26 |
| arand | psusi: I feel like I should probably take the backlog here and paste it to the bug or something, because I have absolutely zero knowledge when it comes to FSs... Here's what I dug up in the source (again, I have no idea what is relevant...): http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/435281/ | 03:39 |
| ccheney | shtylman: ah i hadn't synced up trunk yet from 3-2 branch | 03:40 |
| psusi | arand, good time to learn ;) | 03:41 |
| arand | Hmm, if only things were that simple... :) | 03:47 |
| arand | psusi: Hmm, well staring at this code gives me nothing.. :( Would you mind (and do you think it would be useful?), if I pasted the backlog of our talk here to the bug? | 04:06 |
| psusi | I don't mind, no... and sure it could be useful | 04:07 |

| loneowais | RAOF: that's what i thought.. but couch syncs with ubutnu-one | 07:37 |

| persia | dholbach: Probably. More generally, they likely need a revamp to reflect the practices developed over the past few months, rather than the initial ideas. | 11:12 |
| dholbach | good | 11:12 |
| persia | dholbach: Where it gets tricky is that some packagesets aren't defined in very clear terms. | 11:12 |
| dholbach | still should the use-case for developers be pretty simple: take a look at the list, decide which upload rights you need, apply for them :) | 11:13 |
| persia | Or rather, not defined in easily-discoverable terms. | 11:13 |

| cjwatson | pitti: we normally install by task | 11:19 |
| persia | For the short-term, it's probably best to indicate that folks ought know what sort of upload rights they want: if it's in a (short) list, they ought talk with the developers concerned. if not, they ought talk to the DMB, who may be able to arrange that they can do what they need. | 11:20 |

| jml | but no more information. | 14:03 |

| cking | cjwatson, no notes from foundations-m-btrfs-support :-( | 14:08 |
| cody-somerville | cjwatson, live-installer in debian has made a change thats dependent on a newer version of base-installer (ie. adding a new waypoint for a script in newer base-installer). I was thinking of removing the waypoint and modifying the dependency to require a version less then the version of base-installer the change occurred in so that re-adding the waypoint won't be forgotten about. Does this sound sane to you? | 14:08 |
| cjwatson | jml: I don't have it paged in at the moment, but if I think of anything I'll let you know ... most of the discussion wasn't about LP though | 14:09 |
| cjwatson | cking: thanks anyway | 14:09 |
| jml | cjwatson, thanks. | 14:09 |
| cjwatson | cody-somerville: not really, why not just be a little bit patient? I'll be merging base-installer in the not too distant future | 14:09 |
| cody-somerville | cjwatson, because I already merged live-installer and so it currently does not work. Frans Pop didn't modify the deps to indicate the newer version of base-installer was needed. | 14:11 |
| cjwatson | cody-somerville: *shrug* the merge cycle is always like this. please don't create more work by working around it | 14:14 |
| cjwatson | better to simply wait; it won't be that long | 14:15 |
| cody-somerville | cjwatson, patching live-installer's deps to say it requires the newer base-installer would be correct though, eh? | 14:19 |
| cjwatson | cody-somerville: we don't usually bother that much with versioned dependencies in d-i, since nothing processes them at run-time | 14:21 |
| cjwatson | their only practical use is to control transitions to Debian testing | 14:21 |
| cjwatson | so they'll often get removed after a period of time to reduce size | 14:21 |

| popey | Keybuk: i have requested some as the video crew didnt have time to do them all, asked if we could crowdsource the editing etc | 16:18 |

| popey | i think so, yes | 16:19 |
| popey | elmo was the interface to the video people | 16:19 |
| elmo | no | 16:19 |
| persia | Note also there are official flavours (e.g. xubuntu) and unofficial flavours (e.g. sabily): the difference being that we're all supposed to care if we break the official ones (although it's nice to not break the unofficial ones) | 16:19 |
| slangasek | pitti, persia: right; I'm not sure if I ever read the wiki page, but I've intuitively tried to avoid referring to flavors as "derivatives" because the term implies they're secondary to Ubuntu desktop | 16:19 |
| elmo | what happened was, we asked the team leads to pick "the same number of sessions as Dallas" as that's what was budgeted for, and they helpfully picked 2x that amount | 16:20 |

| cyphermox | is it just me or now the trick of init=/bin/sh passed to the kernel no longer works for going straight to a shell? right now all I get is a system that stops after 'running /scripts/init-bottom'. what would be the new way of doing this? | 17:28 |
| joaopinto | cyphermox, it works for me on lucid, using /sbin/sulogin | 17:33 |
| cyphermox | ah, thanks, didn't think of that | 17:34 |

| kees | dmart: hrm, I can't find a whiteboard history. what changes did you make? | 17:56 |
| kees | dmart: ah-ha, I see it in email now... | 17:57 |
| dmart | kees: I think you undeleted some stuff on the whiteboard (it's duplicated on the wiki), and refined some of the actions. I had a couple of actions, but they disappeared | 17:57 |
| dmart | (not that I mind my actions disappearing ;)) | 17:57 |
| kees | dmart: hehe, no problem; I've extracted them from the email I just got on the update. | 17:58 |
| kees | dmart: how does it look now? | 17:58 |
| * dmart looks... | 17:58 | |
| dmart | That looks OK. I added the ": TODO" for each | 17:59 |
| === jjohansen1 is now known as jjohansen | ||
| kees | dmart: ah, yes. thanks! | 17:59 |
| dmart | Should we include testing here too? The spec template mentions test cases, and the sensible thing is probably for each assignee to come up with appropriate tests to make sure their features are working. | 18:00 |
| dmart | Probably x86 already has tests we can reuse for most of these. | 18:00 |
| kees | dmart: we can include it, but it's really "done" already. I have a full test suite for each of those features. | 18:01 |
| kees | dmart: it's just a matter of removing the "if armel, XFAIL" checks. | 18:01 |
| dmart | OK, great :) I'll tweak the wiki to indicate this | 18:01 |
| kees | dmart: cool. I'll add a todo for me to adjust and run the testsuite | 18:01 |
| dmart | ok, sounds good | 18:02 |
| dmart | thanks | 18:03 |

| YokoZar | How do files installed into /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages end up there? It looks like the packages say to install to /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages | 18:20 |
| RoAk | YokoZar, python 2.6 has to install in dist-packages and not in site-packages | 18:24 |
| YokoZar | RoAk: that makes sense, but I dont' get how the packages are being moved. Is it a maintainer script somewhere? Eg: dpkg -S /usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/AptUrl returns unknown, and looking at the apturl-common package it's supposed to install into /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages | 18:25 |
| RoAk | YokoZar, I guess either python-central or python-support is doing that | 18:26 |
| === mok0_ is now known as mok0 | ||

| smoser | looking for some help regarding debian/watch / uscan | 18:34 |
| smoser | at http://s3.amazonaws.com/ec2-downloads/ i want to watch for ec2-ami-tools-\d+\.\d+\-\d+.zip | 18:35 |
| smoser | but since there is no html to parse, i'm lost for how to tell uscan that | 18:35 |
| ccheney | smoser: perhaps email the devscripts devel team (see packages.qa.d.o) they might have to extend uscan to work with xml if it doesn't already work | 18:38 |
| smoser | yeah.. i'd guess its a big edge case | 18:39 |
| Pici | 50 | 18:39 |
| ccheney | smoser: if its standard anyway, i'm not sure how xml pages like that are intended to work | 18:39 |
| smoser | yeah, i dont think there is any standard there. | 18:39 |
| smoser | realistically, they announce it somewhere else. they just dont | 18:40 |
| mdeslaur | mvo: I've added you to tasks in security-m-support-status and security-m-easier-security-updates blueprints. Feel free to reassign/complain/etc... :) | 18:45 |
| mdeslaur | seb128: I have some work items that I need to assign to someone...see the security-m-authentication-spoofing blueprint. Do you know who I should assign them to? | 18:47 |
| ccheney | smoser: i'm not sure but debian/rules get-orig-source may be what you want instead | 18:48 |
| ccheney | smoser: you can do anything you need inside that to grab the source, but its not uscan :-\ | 18:49 |
| smoser | ccheney, thanks. i'll take a look. i'm really hoping for the benefits of a watch file | 18:49 |
| seb128 | mdeslaur, which items are those? | 18:49 |
| smoser | more than just downloading the original source , but i was unaware of get-orig-source rule | 18:50 |
| mdeslaur | seb128: it's to add the aboutme picture to the policykit and gksu password dialogs, and to make sure a random picture gets selected when a new user is created. | 18:50 |
| seb128 | hum, patches are welcome? ;-) | 18:51 |
| seb128 | mdeslaur, you want those to be assigned to somebody in the desktop team rather? | 18:51 |
| mdeslaur | seb128: uhm...yes? :) | 18:51 |
| seb128 | mdeslaur, I'm not sure we want to sign up for extra work but I can check | 18:51 |
| mdeslaur | seb128: ok, thanks...let me know | 18:54 |

| ccheney | pitti: did you see my email from earlier? | 19:17 |
| pitti | ccheney: yes, I responsed to your IRC ping this morning | 19:17 |
| pitti | ccheney: I'm afraid the only thing that'll help is a rebuild, since the last build was longer than 7 days ago | 19:17 |
| ccheney | pitti: oh ok, seems my irc client ate it | 19:18 |
| seb128 | mdeslaur, do you guy use work items for your specs? | 19:18 |
| ccheney | pitti: ok well i will be doing a proposed upload in a week or two once final 3.2.1 comes out, i think it will be fine until then | 19:18 |
| mdeslaur | seb128: yes, we do | 19:18 |
| micahg | pitti: out of curiosity are there any plans to get apport into Debian | 19:18 |
| pitti | ccheney: right | 19:18 |
| seb128 | mdeslaur, ok, security-m-private-directory, the [actions] are wanted in that format? or should they be moved to items? | 19:19 |
| pitti | micahg: haven't heard of any; I don't think I'll have time to maintain everything there, it'd be a huuuge effort | 19:19 |
| pitti | micahg: (unless they want to use Launchpad for the crash reports and retracing, but even that will take a fair amount of work) | 19:19 |
| seb128 | mdeslaur, sorry I asked after reading the email and there was not the whiteboard start there so I didn't notice you had work items on the spec too | 19:19 |
| mdeslaur | seb128: ah, ok :) | 19:20 |
| micahg | pitti: ok, we were wondering because if we increase the # of hooks, it would be good to push the hooks to Debian, but not all DM/DD will take since they;re useless in Debian ATM | 19:20 |
| micahg | pitti: but that's ok, thanks for the info | 19:21 |
| pitti | micahg: FYI, in udisks I do this: http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-utopia/udisks.git;a=commitdiff;h=a9ddc5bb660a4f53c2533c8e154159dfcdd94519 | 19:22 |
| micahg | pitti: that's perfect, would you mind if I added that to the docs once they are created? | 19:23 |
| pitti | micahg: alternatively, I'm not oppposed to having hooks for popular packages, where the hook is the only diff to debian, in apport-symptoms package | 19:23 |
| pitti | micahg: heh, of course not :) | 19:24 |
| micahg | pitti: great, thanks, I'll keep the apport-symptoms thing in mnd as well | 19:24 |
| micahg | *mind | 19:24 |
| micahg | pitti: is there a reason why you use lsb_release vs dpkg-vendor? | 19:25 |
| pitti | micahg: yes, this is the first time I hear about dpkg-vendor :) | 19:27 |
| micahg | pitti: ah, ok, I learned about it a couple months ago while doing a merge from Debian | 19:27 |
| pitti | dpkg-vendor --is Ubuntu, nice | 19:27 |
| pitti | micahg: this avoids the extra b-dep | 19:27 |
| micahg | pitti: ah, cool | 19:28 |
| fabrice_sp | pitti, may I have your opinion on bug #561958? | 19:35 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 561958 in calibre "calibre-mount-helper missing" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/561958 | 19:35 |
| pitti | fabrice_sp: ah, I deliberately don't install this bit; it's crackful | 19:35 |
| pitti | it would need to use udisks or something | 19:35 |
| fabrice_sp | I see your comment in debian/rules, but without it, some readers are not recongnized | 19:36 |
| pitti | fabrice_sp: hm, will have a look later on; those readers are non-usb mass storage? | 19:37 |
| fabrice_sp | I think so, but I can check (mine is recognised as USB) | 19:38 |
| fabrice_sp | yeah: it seems that they are non-usb mass storage, so that would explain why without this program it does not work (nothing to mount) | 19:45 |
| mvo | mdeslaur: thanks, I noticed that - the amount of [mvo] in it is a bit disproportional to the amount of other names ;) but I will see what I can do, some of it should be really straightforward | 19:48 |
| mdeslaur | mvo: I didn't know who it should be assigned to, as I mentioned, feel free to reassign or to tell me what you can't/don't want to do | 19:51 |
| mdeslaur | mvo: btw, you're second in line for the cloning machine, right behind pitti | 19:51 |
| mvo | mdeslaur: heh :) | 19:51 |
| seb128 | mdeslaur, hey again | 20:44 |
| seb128 | mdeslaur, we don't have ressources for those this cycle | 20:44 |
| seb128 | mdeslaur, if anybody want to work on that patches are welcome otherwise I guess it's not going to happen this cycle | 20:45 |
| seb128 | mdeslaur, you can assign those to our team but it's likely we will not get to those | 20:45 |
| seb128 | mdeslaur, otherwise your team might maybe try to work on those? | 20:45 |
| mdeslaur | seb128: okay, thanks | 20:46 |
| mdeslaur | seb128: we'll see what we can do | 20:46 |
| seb128 | thanks | 20:46 |
| micahg | mdeslaur: I'd be happy to take care of the firefox packaging for installation if there's an example somewhere else | 20:46 |

| Laney | when was it uploaded? | 21:35 |
| cody-somerville | a few hours ago | 21:36 |
