| ev | rgreening: bug number for the parted dependency issue? | 09:00 |
|---|---|---|
| CIA-9 | ubiquity: evand * r3934 testing/ (187 files in 15 dirs): Merge with trunk. | 09:37 |
| ev | rgreening: can you subscribe to the usb-creator-hackers mailing list when you get a chance? | 10:04 |
| ev | superm1, cjwatson, shtylman, and anyone else in ~ubuntu-installer: I've proposed merging the testing branch into trunk. I'd appreciate a review and any comments you may have. Thanks! | 10:19 |
| ev | cjwatson: have you ever had a case of a native Ubuntu package being uploaded to Debian? I'm trying to work out the right format for the changelog version if usb-creator gets uploaded, picking something that will nicely deal with syncs. | 14:19 |
| ev | rather, I'm trying to review a branch from Dmitrijs that makes it 0.2.23-0ubuntu1, which I don't believe is correct (and I don't like, because usb-creator is developed in Ubuntu, not Debian). | 14:20 |
| soren | ev: I /think/ mvo maintains a package that way. I forget which one, though. | 14:22 |
| ev | soren: thanks! | 14:23 |
| cjwatson | 0.2.23ubuntu1 would be the usual format for the Ubuntu version | 14:23 |
| cjwatson | if you don't like that version format, you have a couple of options | 14:24 |
| cjwatson | you can develop it as a true upstream project, release .tar.gz files, and have the packaging be separate, so it can either flow through Debian or we can pick it up early as -0ubuntu1 | 14:24 |
| cjwatson | or you can ask us to blacklist it from autosyncs and we'll only sync it on request | 14:24 |
| cjwatson | putting a "-" in the version makes it not a native package; I have no idea where people picked up that convention as it seems odd to me | 14:25 |
| ev | coolness! | 14:27 |
| ev | thanks a bunch! | 14:27 |
| ali1234 | hello. it looks like the alternate iso is broken for usb creator/unetbootin (again) | 14:50 |
| ev | ali1234: broken how? | 15:36 |
| ali1234 | ev: broken in the sense that after you configure keymap it dies saying it cannot find a cdrom device | 15:37 |
| ali1234 | obviously it cannot find a cdrom; i don't have one | 15:37 |
| ali1234 | otherwise i would not be using usb | 15:37 |
| ev | ali1234: what CD were you using? | 15:38 |
| ali1234 | lucid alternate | 15:38 |
| ev | ali1234: if you switch to a VT and cat /proc/cmdline, do you see "cdrom-detect/try-usb=true" | 15:39 |
| ali1234 | only if i manually add it at the boot prompt | 15:40 |
| ali1234 | but it doesn't make any difference, it still doesn't work | 15:40 |
| ev | does usb-creator not add it when writing the ISO to the usb disk? | 15:40 |
| ali1234 | no | 15:41 |
| ev | can you uncomment the set -x in /var/lib/dpkg/info/cdrom-detect.postinst, back out to the menu, and select detect CDROM | 15:41 |
| ali1234 | not right now, i am using mini.iso instead | 15:41 |
| ev | okay | 15:41 |
| ali1234 | i will try it later | 15:42 |
| ev | if you get a chance to do that, please shove the resulting /var/log/syslog in a new bug report against cdrom-detect | 15:42 |
| ev | thanks bunches | 15:42 |
| xnox | ev, agree on using 0.2.23ubuntu1 updated merge-proposal branch | 16:02 |
| ev | xnox: just reviewing now :) | 16:02 |
| CIA-9 | usb-creator: evand * r308 usb-creator/ (87 files in 7 dirs): Merge with Dmitrijs' packaging branch. | 16:06 |
| ev | xnox: thanks! | 16:07 |
| xnox | =) awesome thanks | 16:07 |
| xnox | love CIA commits ;-) | 16:07 |
| xnox | ev, how about calling a flag day and clicking "Upgrade this branch" on lp:usb-creator to make a jump from bzr 0.92 -> bzr 2a repository format? | 16:16 |
| ev | xnox: feel free to set up CIA for any branches of usb-creator you have > https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Installer/Development#IRC | 16:16 |
| ev | xnox: sure, I can do that now and send a mail to the newly created list. | 16:17 |
| xnox | sound great =) cause I've been stuck here for a while trying to backport my commit from 2a to non-rich-root 0.92 ;-) | 16:17 |
| ev | heh :) | 16:17 |
| ev | upgrading... | 16:18 |
| ev | done | 16:20 |
| ev | At some point, an audio recording of the UDS session on usb-creator will be posted, or so I've been told | 16:24 |
| ali1234 | http://uds.ubuntu.com/audio/uds-m/ | 16:28 |
| ev | well yes, but the one for the usb-creator session isn't up | 16:30 |
| CIA-9 | usb-creator: dmitrij.ledkov * r309 xdg/usbcreator/misc.py: Merge cristiklein's work | 16:32 |
| xnox | damnit didn't show branch nick =( | 16:33 |
| CIA-9 | usb-creator: dmitrij.ledkov * r310 xdg/: Test | 16:33 |
| xnox | aha =) it did | 16:33 |
| ev | :) | 16:38 |
| xnox | I just have to make sure none of my local branches are called / nick usb-creator =) cause then I will confuse people ;-) | 16:39 |
| ev | indeed | 16:39 |

| ali1234 | ev: ok i ran cdrom-detect with "set -x" now how do i get the syslog off the machine? | 19:10 |
| ali1234 | nvm i can copy it onto the installed partition | 19:12 |
| ali1234 | ev: i cannot create a bug against cdrom-detect because the package does not exist... | 19:21 |
| cjwatson | it certainly does | 19:21 |
| cjwatson | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cdrom-detect/+filebug | 19:22 |
| ali1234 | well ubuntu-bug says it doesn't and so does apt-cache | 19:22 |
| cjwatson | it doesn't exist as an installable package on your system | 19:22 |
| cjwatson | it exists perfectly well as something you can file bugs against :-) | 19:22 |
| ali1234 | i will file a bug against ubuntu-bug then, i guess :/ | 19:22 |
| cjwatson | apport isn't very good at filing bugs on individual installer components | 19:23 |
| cjwatson | you can file it on debian-installer and it knows about that, but it's not really worth the hassle, just file it manually using the URL above and attach the file ev asked for | 19:23 |
| pmatulis | for network installs, how do i get to point to installation media available by HTTP? | 19:25 |
