[09:00] <ev> rgreening: bug number for the parted dependency issue?
[09:37] <CIA-9> ubiquity: evand * r3934 testing/ (187 files in 15 dirs): Merge with trunk.
[10:04] <ev> rgreening: can you subscribe to the usb-creator-hackers mailing list when you get a chance?
[10:19] <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!
[14:19] <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.
[14:20] <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).
[14:22] <soren> ev: I /think/ mvo maintains a package that way. I forget which one, though.
[14:23] <ev> soren: thanks!
[14:23] <cjwatson> 0.2.23ubuntu1 would be the usual format for the Ubuntu version
[14:24] <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
[14:25] <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
[14:27] <ev> coolness!
[14:27] <ev> thanks a bunch!
[14:50] <ali1234> hello. it looks like the alternate iso is broken for usb creator/unetbootin (again)
[15:36] <ev> ali1234: broken how?
[15:37] <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
[15:38] <ev> ali1234: what CD were you using?
[15:38] <ali1234> lucid alternate
[15:39] <ev> ali1234: if you switch to a VT and cat /proc/cmdline, do you see "cdrom-detect/try-usb=true"
[15:40] <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?
[15:41] <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
[15:42] <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
[16:02] <xnox> ev, agree on using 0.2.23ubuntu1 updated merge-proposal branch
[16:02] <ev> xnox: just reviewing now :)
[16:06] <CIA-9> usb-creator: evand * r308 usb-creator/ (87 files in 7 dirs): Merge with Dmitrijs' packaging branch.
[16:07] <ev> xnox: thanks!
[16:07] <xnox> =) awesome thanks
[16:07] <xnox> love CIA commits ;-)
[16:16] <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
[16:17] <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 :)
[16:18] <ev> upgrading...
[16:20] <ev> done
[16:24] <ev> At some point, an audio recording of the UDS session on usb-creator will be posted, or so I've been told
[16:28] <ali1234> http://uds.ubuntu.com/audio/uds-m/
[16:30] <ev> well yes, but the one for the usb-creator session isn't up
[16:32] <CIA-9> usb-creator: dmitrij.ledkov * r309 xdg/usbcreator/misc.py: Merge cristiklein's work
[16:33] <xnox> damnit didn't show branch nick =(
[16:33] <CIA-9> usb-creator: dmitrij.ledkov * r310 xdg/: Test
[16:33] <xnox> aha =) it did
[16:38] <ev> :)
[16:39] <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
[19:10] <ali1234> ev: ok i ran cdrom-detect with "set -x" now how do i get the syslog off the machine?
[19:12] <ali1234> nvm i can copy it onto the installed partition
[19:21] <ali1234> ev: i cannot create a bug against cdrom-detect because the package does not exist...
[19:21] <cjwatson> it certainly does
[19:22] <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 :/
[19:23] <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
[19:25] <pmatulis> for network installs, how do i get to point to installation media available by HTTP?
