[07:16] <dholbach> good morning
[10:13] <nigelbabu> dholbach: Sorry about yesterday.  Got stuck in a bad traffic jam on the way back.  Got too late.
[10:13] <nigelbabu> I'll probably have to take a peak at the results of the script today
[10:14] <nigelbabu> BlackZ: Great to see on the debian-mentors list :)  Good going!
[10:15] <BlackZ> nigelb: thanks! :)
[10:16] <dholbach> nigelbabu: don'T worry
[10:16] <nigelbabu> dholbach: I'm already worried.  We were supposed to launch 2 weeks back.
[10:16] <nigelbabu> Today, I'll just make a list of the bugs that failed with the script and do those manually
[10:17] <dholbach> nigelbabu: let's talk about that later today
[10:17] <dholbach> we'll figure it out
[10:17] <nigelbabu> Ok.  I should be available in around 5 hours from now.
[15:39] <nigelb> dholbach: around?
[15:40] <dholbach> nigelb: yes, but I need a few minutes
[15:40] <nigelb> sure :)
[15:45] <dholbach> nigelb: I updated our documentation a bit
[15:46] <dholbach> (and generalised it too, so it can be used in other places in the wiki)
[15:46] <nigelb> Awesome :)
[15:46] <nigelb> ew, I can't access the server on which the script was running.
[15:47] <dholbach> nigelb: what's the main blocker for kicking off project babu?
[15:47] <dholbach> I mean cleansweep :-)
[15:47] <nigelb> haha
[15:48] <dholbach> is it just fixing the bug subscriptions?
[15:48] <nigelb> Well, as of now the blocker is that not all bugs with patches are subscribed.  Some are, some aren't
[15:48] <nigelb> Yup
[15:48] <nigelb> Can you run the script overnight today without the try catch and see what error turns up?
[15:48] <dholbach> basically we'll subscribe the team to every ubuntu bug that is not on the blacklist that has a patch attached, right?
[15:48] <dholbach> or did I forget anything?
[15:48] <nigelb> Yep
[15:48] <dholbach> can do
[15:49] <dholbach> I'll start now
[15:49] <nigelb> Same as from the branch.
[15:49] <nigelb> Only difference is you remove the try catch for "Launchpad hates me and bug #" foo
[15:50] <dholbach> nigelb: did you have a look at the merge I proposed?
[15:50] <nigelb> nope, will do that now
[15:51] <dholbach> nigelb: that script could well be a bit quicker
[15:51] <dholbach> (because it does less loops)
[15:51] <nigelb> oooh.  then I'll merge it in 10 minutes
[15:51] <xnox> can launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/usb-creator be added to the blacklist? it's ubuntu native package? =)
[15:51] <nigelb> lemme get the code
[15:51] <nigelb> xnox: ubuntu native packages are not automatically blacklisted
[15:51] <nigelb> unless you're the maintainer and you don't want us helping you
[15:52] <dholbach> oops, there's a bug in what I proposed
[15:52]  * dholbach goes and fixes it
[15:53] <xnox> nigelb, fair enough =) I just though there were blacklisted by default =) so far we have 3 patches hanging but all of them patch-needswork ;-)
[15:54] <nigelb> xnox: We only blacklist kernel and docs and a particular X package at the suggestion of the old X team lead
[15:56] <dholbach> nigelb: resubmitted
[15:57] <nigelb> I spottd a potential bug, lemme see if thats what you fixed.
[16:02] <nigelb> dholbach: why did you remove the try catch for looping through subscribers
[16:02] <nigelb> ?
[16:02] <dholbach> nigelb: because I didn't think it was necessary - the way I did it should be quicker, no?
[16:03] <nigelb> dholbach: well, the script fails every time it hits a subscriber who has a suspsended account without that try catch
[16:03] <dholbach> aha
[16:04] <dholbach> hang on
[16:04] <dholbach> I have an idea
[16:05] <nigelb> something that paces us even more?
[16:05]  * nigelb is all ears :)
[16:12] <dholbach> I just look at launchpad people who are is_valid
[16:12] <nigelb> aha, that works too
[16:12] <nigelb> If I'm making it to this UDS, *big* hug for you! :)
[16:13] <dholbach> resubmitted
[16:13] <dholbach> :-)
[16:17] <nigelb> dholbach: merged and pushed :)
[16:17] <nigelb> You can run it now.  Will take a few hours to run though
[16:17] <dholbach> nigelb: rock on
[16:18] <dholbach> I'll let you know how it goes
[16:18] <nigelb> awesome, thanks :)
[16:19] <nigelb> hyperair: figured out my sid pbuilder problems
[16:30] <hyperair> nigelb: oh cool. what were they?
[16:31] <nigelb> hyperair: some sid package trouble. built a testing chroot and upgraded to hardy
[16:31] <nigelb> err sid
[16:32] <xnox> nigelb, yeap it's been like that for a while now
[16:32] <nigelb> xnox: I spent 2 weeks trying to figure that out
[16:33] <xnox> nigelb, =)))))) lol I've tried once with one mirror, tried second time with another mirror and then tried doing squeeze -> sid =) with local apt-cacher-ng it took me about 30min ;-)
[16:33] <xnox> nigelb, I wonder if I can bet more verbose output from deboostrap to see which package is failing to configure though
[16:34] <xnox> s / bet / get
[16:34] <nigelb> I think i have that one
[16:35] <nigelb> Always fails with e2fsprogs
[16:37] <xnox> aha =) google employee the one that bashed ubuntu about the bug reporting mess on lp.net => lwn.net
[16:37] <xnox> well well =)
[16:38] <nigelb> xnox: what? where?
[16:43] <xnox> nigelb, https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/543617/comments/20
[16:43] <ubot4> Launchpad bug 543617 in linux (Fedora) (and 3 other projects) "Unmount of an fs with dirty cache buffers causes pathological slowdown (affects: 7) (dups: 2) (heat: 82)" [Unknown,Unknown]
[16:43] <xnox> nigelb, http://www.outflux.net/blog/archives/2010/05/17/yay-for-barriers/
[16:54] <xnox> nigelb, looking at https://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debootstrap we might need newer deboostrap in lucid there were a lot of changes
[16:55] <nigelb> xnox: I have the latest debootstrap from debian
[16:55] <xnox> =(
[16:55] <nigelb> lool linked me to a debian bug earlier though.  Its clearly an upstream problem.
[17:10] <dholbach> nigelb: there are private bugs :)
[17:10] <nigelb> dholbach: um, you need to use your credentials
[17:10] <nigelb> I used my credentilas on the server.
[17:10] <dholbach> sure, some are even more private :)
[17:10] <dholbach> I'll ignore those
[17:11] <dholbach> those break the script
[17:11] <nigelb> yeah, another try catch
[17:11] <dholbach> no, just "if bug.private: continue"
[17:11] <nigelb> ah, that works too :)
[17:12] <dholbach> I'll keep it running and if it works out, I'll propose another merge
[17:12] <nigelb> okay :)
[17:37] <dholbach> nigelb: the script also dies trying to add jfo as subscriber if he's already subscribed
[17:37] <dholbach> fixed that locally too
[17:37] <dholbach> we're slowly getting there :)
[17:37] <dholbach> I'll leave it running through the night
[17:37] <nigelb> dholbach: ok :) Thank you :)
[17:37] <dholbach> anytime :)
