=== bjf is now known as bjf[afk]
ScottKcjwatson: We had an unexpected upload of kdegames which will make kubuntu-netbook slightly out of date.  Also, I'd say, not worth respining for.01:47
=== pgraner is now known as pgraner-afk
aragood morning all!07:24
ttxara: good morning !07:27
aramorning ttx07:28
cjwatsonmorning10:08
cjwatsonanyone know of any showstoppers?  otherwise I'll start working my way through publication/announcement processes and such10:10
ttxcjwatson: not blocker from me10:23
ttxcjwatson: my only gripe is the lousy test coverage %10:23
ttx(server side)10:23
cjwatsonmm, I normally figure we're lucky to get any on a1, this is much better than I'm used to :)10:24
ttxok, works for me :)10:24
ttxI think we caught what made sense anyway (UEC / basic boot behavior / virtual kernel size issue)10:25
cjwatsongah, sabdfl picks these release names just to make it difficult to find a first milestone quote, doesn't he10:25
cjwatsonthere is ... a bit of a dearth of meerkat-related fiction10:25
ttxcjwatson: that's an unexplored field of literature, I suspect.10:26
elmocjwatson: has the kernel security upload been pocket copied to releases?  if not, could it be please?10:37
cjwatsonelmo: YM updates?10:37
elmoI do, sorry10:37
elmomonkey see release in IRC channel name, monkey type release10:37
cjwatsonelmo: that's automatic now unless there's a conflict in updates - and yes, it's been done10:37
elmocjwatson: ok, thanks10:38
cjwatsonthank cron ;-)10:38
elmowell presumably cron didn't cron itself10:38
cjwatsonthere is that10:38
elmoor if it did, I'm impressed10:38
cjwatsonthough have you checked the skynet status lately10:38
cjwatson?10:38
cjwatsonnagios alert: dangerously close to sentience10:38
elmono, but I'll send Nafallo into one of the DCs and see if they let the puny human live10:38
elmo(kind of mixing my sci-fi metaphors there, but oh well)10:39
arattx, is pitti working today?10:46
ttxara: haven't seen him yet10:51
araapw, hello gentleman11:02
apwara, hellooo11:02
araapw, in the current alpha 1 desktop images, linux metapackage version is 2.6.34.5.4, but the rest of kernel packages are 2.6.34-5.1311:03
apwara, the version number of meta is not entirly tied to the kernel package version numbers11:04
apwthe 2.6.34 is the same, and the .5 matches the kernel -5 to make the correct linkage, the last digit in each case though is a upload number for that package11:04
apwso the last digit will be different between them11:04
apwdoes that make any sense ?11:05
araapw, yes :-) thanks!11:05
apwara, how is testing going?  must be busy for you11:06
araapw, well, yes, but alpha 1 is quite relaxed, although I hope to see pitti arriving soon...11:06
apwhe was working some odd hours yesterday to help get the cd-respins we needed done, but it is a national holiday in .de i think11:07
araapw, ah, ok, and who's managing the release?11:07
araI thought it was him11:08
apwara, well yes, i didi think it was him, so it does seem unlikely he would forget about it11:08
araapw, :)11:08
cjwatsonpitti isn't doing the last steps, I am11:11
cjwatsonthough I've been a bit distracted this morning11:11
cjwatsonhuh, we didn't respin for the rescue-mode menu fix11:15
cjwatsonoh well11:15
ScottKFWIW, one of the main characters in "The Lion King" is a Meerkat.11:34
ScottK(Timon)11:35
slangasekthe haquna matata release?11:41
slangasekhakuna11:41
cjwatsony'all are preempting my quote ;-)11:41
slangasek:-)11:41
aracjwatson, charlie-tca wanted this bug (and the workaround explain in the bug report release noted):11:42
arahttp://launchpad.net/bugs/58601211:42
ubot4Launchpad bug 586012 in xfce4-panel (Ubuntu) (and 1 other project) "[Maverick] XFCE system tray became unusable after upgrade to libgtk2.0-0 2.21.0-1ubuntu2 (affects: 9) (dups: 3) (heat: 60)" [Undecided,Confirmed]11:42
aracjwatson, it is a Xubuntu bug11:42
cjwatsonara: ok, can he write up suitable text?11:42
cjwatsonara: he can feel free to add it to MaverickMeerkat/TechnicalOverview, actually11:42
aracjwatson, he's not around, but the text he provided in the bug description seems to be good enough. I will add it to the TechnicalOverview11:43
cjwatsonthanks!11:44
cjwatsonara: do you know if any mythbuntu testing has happened?  for some reason it isn't on the tracker11:44
cjwatsonbut there's a daily build from yesterday morning11:45
aracjwatson, I think they had some problems (not sure which) and they decided not to release alpha 111:45
aracjwatson, I can try to discover more details11:45
cjwatsonok, at your leisure11:45
cjwatsonso I think the releasable images are: Ubuntu desktop+alternate+server amd64+i386; Ubuntu netbook i386; UEC/EC2 amd64+i386; Kubuntu desktop+alternate amd64+i386; Kubuntu netbook i386; Xubuntu desktop+alternate amd64+i386; Ubuntu Studio alternate amd64+i38611:49
cjwatsonI see no releasable armel images11:49
cjwatsondoes anyone see anything incorrect here?11:49
cjwatsonspeak now or hold your peace until alpha-211:50
arathis is the xubuntu release note item: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MaverickMeerkat/TechnicalOverview?action=diff&rev2=13&rev1=1211:52
cjwatsonthanks11:54
cjwatsonstarting publishing11:55
araI asked around #ubuntu-mythtv and apparently they haven't made any changes yet in the myth* world, so they decided not to test alpha 112:01
cjwatsonok12:02
cjwatsonthanks12:02
cjwatsonsmoser: could you do the EC2/UEC alpha-1 publishing, please?  I've not done it before and am not sure now is the time for me to learn12:44
cjwatson(would I even have the necessary permissions?)12:45
cjwatsoncould somebody please test the alpha-1 torrents, e.g.  http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/maverick/alpha-1/maverick-desktop-i386.iso.torrent  ?13:15
cjwatsonNAT here makes it difficult for me to do so13:15
LaneyI added it but it sees no peers13:16
Laneyat least the tracker appears to know about it13:16
cjwatsonelmo: ^- does the tracker seem to be operating as normal?13:19
* cjwatson expects the response "no, actually, it seems to be working"13:19
Laneyoh, there's one now13:20
cjwatsonah yes, it's downloading here too13:20
cjwatsongosh, my NAT firewall must work better than I thought13:20
cjwatsonall right, in that case I'm just waiting for newz2000 to publish /testing on the website13:21
cjwatsonI have the announcement text in an editor window here13:21
smosercjwatson, we're pre-published. are you ready to publish publicly ?13:30

apwthough all the queue depths on the builders are 'unknown' hrm, something is wibble13:41
smosercjwatson, images are public now, but http://uec-images.ubuntu.com/releases/ isn't getting populated with 'maverick' and 10.10 directories.  i've asked in #is for help on that.13:42
