chrisccoulsonwow, some people are actually still using firefox 2?01:24
pittiGood morning06:47
didrocksGuten Morgen pitti07:08
pittihey didrocks07:10
micahgpitti: does people with firefox-2 installed in Hardy and can't update to Firefox 3.6.6 count as a critical bug to ring alarms for or just needs an update later today?07:22
pittimicahg: what does "can't update" mean?07:30
pittiapt-get holding back packages?07:30
pittior "after the upgrade their system is broken"?07:30
micahgpitti: no, the update fails... bug 60002207:30
ubot2Launchpad bug 600022 in firefox-3.0 (Ubuntu Hardy) (and 1 other project) "package firefox 3.0.19 nobinonly-0ubuntu0.8.04.1 failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite `/usr/share/bug/firefox/presubj', which is also in package firefox-2 (affects: 2) (dups: 1) (heat: 18)" [High,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/60002207:30
pittimicahg: urgh; it's certainly something that we need to fix today07:31
micahgpitti: yes, but should I wake up chris for this?  I was thinking not since the number of installs for firefox-2 should be minimal07:32
pittimicahg: I'd think it requires quite some more people, since this would need to -security, right?07:33
micahgpitti: oh right, yes, he did tell me about that...so my guess would be that's a no then?07:34
pittioh, it's still quite an important bug07:34
micahgpitti: of course, but is it a wake people in the middle of the night bug?07:34
pittinot sure whether it's important enough to block it from the mirrors07:34
pittimicahg: does firefox start up after the failed upgrade? i. e. does it really depend on the postinst bits?07:35
pittioh, hang on, dpkg would just roll back to the previous version, wouldn't it?07:36
pittiso it should still actually work07:36
pittiso as long as you have a working firefox, we can wait half a day for the security team to wake up, I think07:36
* micahg should probably test in a VM07:36
pittiso the fix would be adding a simple Replaces: firefox-2, AFAICS?07:38
pittior just drop the bug script, we don't use it anyway07:38
micahgpitti: well, I was debating that, I was thinking Breaks w/out Replaces since some people on Hardy use firefox-2 for custom apps07:39
pittimicahg: but then you couldn't install them in parallel any more07:39
pittiI don't think it's a good idea to suddenly force firefox-2 uninstallation within a stable upgrade07:40
micahgpitti: true, so I wasn't sure07:40
pittithe replaces would just overwrite the bug file, and otherwise leave firefox-2 alone07:40
micahgpitti: oh, I didn't know that, that sounds better :)07:41
* micahg needs to read the manual again for control07:41
pittireplaces: silently overwrites files; conflicts or breaks force the other package to get uninstalled07:41
micahgpitti: firefox 2 works, firefox 3 (default doesn't and the icon is gone from the panel since the -branding package can't install)07:49
pittimicahg: you mean you are trying to install firefox-3, not upgrade it?07:50
pittiI thought the scenario was that you already have the old firefox-3 and branding packages installed and the upgrade fails?07:51
micahgpitti: no, firefox (firefox 3) won't upgrade and won't work after the install failure, but the secondary firefox-2 will07:51
pittiargh07:51
pittiI thought dpkg would just roll back to the previous version on an upgrade failure07:51
micahgthere's a dpkg security update I didn't apply but I don't think it'll fix that07:52
pittino, it won't07:53
pittiI'm still puzzled07:53
pittimicahg: what does dpkg -s say about firefox-3.0 and -branding? do you have the old package or the new package installed?07:53
pittiit's probably unconfigured07:53
micahgpitti: firefox is installed, firefox-branding is not installed, firefox-gnome-support is unpacked07:54
pittimicahg: oh, the old firefox 3 didn't have a branding package?07:55
micahgoh, it seems we goofed :( should not have added abrowser to hardy...07:55
micahgpitti: I think it was in intrepid we started with the alternative branding07:56
pittiah, so it fails the install before it unpacks -branding?07:57
micahgpitti: I think so07:57
pittiright, then we are doomed07:57
pittiI think I'll ask IS to block the update for now07:58
micahgpitti: k, should I call chris?07:58
micahghe should be up in a couple hours anyways07:58
pittimicahg: if you can, would be better07:58
micahgpitti: k, will do07:58
pittimicahg: oh, wait07:59
pittimicahg: no, the critical path is the security team07:59
pittipreparing an update should be easy, it's just adding a replaces07:59
pittibut we need to get it uploaded and published, which I think needs the security team07:59
micahgpitti: yeah, well, asac, chris, or the security team can upload and build, publishing is security only08:00
micahgpitti: we have the security PPA :)08:00
pittiah, right08:01
pittimicahg: ok, please call him then08:01
pittiI think I can do the package copy as well08:01
pittior any archive admin really08:01
pittiI just can't upload anything to security08:01
pittimicahg: thanks; I'll prod IS for blacklisting and create an incident report08:01
micahgpitti: k, will do08:02
pittimicahg: ok, I checked the "crisis" guidelines08:06
pittiI think "high" bug priority matches here, affects a small portion of the user base08:07
micahgpitti: k, I left a message, I'll try again in a couple minutes if I don't get a call back or see him08:07
pittiso, let's just push out the fix ASAP08:07

pittichrisccoulson: good morning08:07
micahgpitti: no, sorry08:07
chrisccoulsongood morning everyone08:08
pittichrisccoulson: micahg and I discussed this, and since it breaks things pretty badly for the folks with firefox-2 installed, we should push out a fix ASAP08:09
pittichrisccoulson: simplest would be to add a Replaces: firefox-208:09
chrisccoulsonpitti - yeah, i was thinking about it last night. i wasn't sure whether to just do that, or actually provide a transitional firefox-2 package to remove the old firefox-2 during the upgrade08:10
pittichrisccoulson: let's not08:10
chrisccoulsoni can't see any reason why anybody would still be using that08:10
micahgchrisccoulson: I know of some cases08:10
pittichrisccoulson: removing packages in an SRU is rather evil08:10
micahgchrisccoulson: or rather at least one08:10
pittiand if we want to do it, we should do it separately, in a few weeks, when the dust has settled08:11
pittifor now, let's just push out a 100% safe fix08:11
pittichrisccoulson: so can you please add the replaces, upload to the security PPA, and the two of you give it a quick test? micah should still have his VM with the broken state08:12
pittiand otherwise we just need to check for misbuilds, etc., i. e. that it still starts up08:12
pittiI think I can publish it to the archive from the PPA, please ping me08:12
chrisccoulsonpitti - yeah, can do. although i did start work this morning to move the conflicting files last night and add some logic to move the conffiles back to a non-conflicting location too08:13
chrisccoulsonbut i had to go to bed at about 530 when i started to fall asleep ;)08:14
pittiouch08:14
chrisccoulsonso i've not tested it yet08:14
pittisorry about that08:14
chrisccoulsonheh, no worries08:14
pittichrisccoulson: there are conffile conflicts as well?08:14
chrisccoulsonpitti - yeah, that's the hard bit08:14
chrisccoulson/etc/firefox/pref/firefox.js is in both08:14
chrisccoulsonright, i'm going to have a quick shower and wake up a bit more08:15
pittihm, I have an /etc/firefox-3.0 here08:15
pittichrisccoulson: and I suppose the 3.6 firefox.js would rather break 2.0?08:15
pittichrisccoulson: in that case an Conflicts:/Replaces: might be easier indeed08:16
pittito remove -2 during upgrade08:16
chrisccoulsonpossibly, i haven't tested the effect on firefox-208:16
chrisccoulsoni was thinking rather a transitional firefox-2 package provided by the new firefox source rather than a conflicts08:16
micahgchrisccoulson: how much longer do you need me tonight?08:17
chrisccoulsonelse update-manager offers partial upgrades08:17
chrisccoulsonmicahg - you can get some rest if you like08:17
micahgchrisccoulson: k, I'm assuming you have a hardy VM from the testing?08:17
chrisccoulsonmicahg - yeah, that's no problem08:17
chrisccoulsonright, i'll be back in 5 minutes or so08:18
micahgpitti: is that ok then if chrisccoulson tests in his VM?08:18
pittimicahg: absolutely; doesn't seem hard to reproduce08:18
pittimicahg: thanks a lot, and sleep well!08:18
micahgpitti: np, have a good day :)08:19
micahgpitti: I just one question, is it too late regarding introducing the branding in hardy (i.e. we wouldn't roll that back now) that's my only unanswered question ATM?08:20
pittimicahg: we could move it all back into firefox itself and make the branding/abrowser packages empty transitional packages08:21
pittibut since we now need to support upgrades from the real branding/abrowser pacakges anyway, I'd rather do that as a separate step, or keep them08:21
pittiso reverting back would only complicate the packaging chagnes now08:21
pittichrisccoulson: as for moving the conffiles, would firefox 2/3 even look into different folders? or does it need a code change?08:22
micahgpitti: k, thanks, I'm off to bed then, good night08:24

seb128didrocks, is there any reason the unity xsession desktop is not in unity itself?08:56
seb128I did apt-get install unity yesterday08:56
seb128which gives a working unity but not gdm session...08:56
didrocksseb128: the gdm session is in the settings package as it was the case for n-l in lucid08:56
didrocksxsession desktop file*08:56
seb128didrocks, right, but users will install unity from software-center08:58
seb128or apt-get install it08:58
seb128shouldn't that give them a gdm session in some way?08:58
seb128seems a broken experience from an user perspective right now08:58
didrocksseb128: hum… I was thinking they want to install the ubuntu-netbook session08:59
seb128ie I've read about unity and did apt-get install unity and though that was broken08:59
didrocksseb128: a lot of people don't read the unity wiki page I setup. maybe we can put a recommend on the settings package, what do you think?09:01
seb128let me think about it09:02
seb128I just think it's broken that installing "unity" doesn't give you a way to use unity09:02
seb128but yeah, if the session is in some une setting package you should recommends it09:03
didrocksI agree with that, but most of people installed ubuntu-netbook previously and not netbook-launcher for instance09:03
seb128or move the session to unity itself09:03
seb128well I'm using Ubuntu desktop09:03
seb128I just wanted to try unity09:03
seb128I didn't want the full une experience09:04
seb128ie I don't want my settings to be changed or whatever09:04
didrocksthe settings aren't changed, as it's a separate session09:04
mvodidrocks: please check "lp:~mvo/softwware-center/plugin-support" that should give you a very basic starting point. I think we need to refine the API to make writing the plugins much simpler (instead of just dumping the SoftwareCenterApp class to the plugin as its done now). but it should b e a good enough to start :)09:07
didrocksmvo: thanks a lot, I'll have a look later this morning and give you some feedbacks. Seems a good start :-)09:09
didrocksmvo: btw, for the update-notifier change, I'll go with a thread calling g_spawn_sync() all script ordered, does that sound good?09:10
mvodidrocks: u-n> I don't really mind as long as it works, I was thinking of a gtimeout but a thread should be fine given that no UI is touched09:11
didrocksmvo: if we want to launch one script after another, we have to get a way to know the first child is stopped, is there something in g_spawn_async apart from getting the PID and monitor it?09:13
mvodidrocks: just g_child_watch_add()09:15
didrocksmvo: oh sweet, that will be handy, thanks09:15
seb128pitti, oh about CD space, did you consider dropping tcl and tk from the CD?09:37

pittithe others should be fine indeed09:42
pittiseb128: cheers! looking at that09:42
seb128pitti, we also had the discussions about directfb some time ago09:42
seb128pitti, libsdl is the only thing bringing it in the default install now that directfb backends have been dropped from the installer stack09:43
seb128not sure how many people use libsdl directfb though09:44
seb128I would assume almost nobody...09:44
pittiseb128: right, in lucid it was cairo as well, but maverick got that fixed09:44
seb128yes, that was part of having the gtk stack building a directfb backend for the d-i09:44
pittiseb128: I think we shuold just declare it unsupported in Ubuntu; we never quite supported anything non-Xish09:45
seb128but since d-i switched to x11 that got dropped09:45
seb128pitti, that would win quite some CD space as well09:45

didrockshum…12:57
seb128no12:57
mvochrisccoulson: that should read: "not much usable", sorry12:57
didrocksseb128: I'm puzzled, all gconf key related to that are removed12:57
seb128didn't you divert some keys between sessions to avoid conflicts? or avoid UNE changes to impact on the GNOME one?12:57
pittididrocks: it's not much of a blocker for alpha-212:57
pittididrocks: but if you have time to do it, please do12:57
didrocksseb128: no, I didn't divert anything, it was just an added gconf path for the UNE session only12:57
pittididrocks: it feels wrong to dump > 2.5 GB on the disk and call that "lightweight"12:58
pittichrisccoulson: indeed it is -- how do you do that, install in a separate path?12:58
seb128didrocks, I know we had a similar issues during the sprint in paris when you renamed some applets in the UNE config12:58
didrocksseb128: yeah, but that part is moved away for ages. Let me check the settings12:58
seb128didrocks, don't bother, I was just wondering if that was due to it12:59
didrockspitti: ok, I prefer to focus on other things if possible, so, let's focus on this for A3 to get reasonnable size with default apps change :-)12:59
chrisccoulsonpitti - the complicated bit is that the conffile was already moving between 2 binary packages, and changed install location at the same time. the contents are also different and i've tried to handle the migration without showing the user a conffile prompt13:00
chrisccoulsonand now i have to add logic to move it back to the original location (but in the new binary package)13:00
chrisccoulsonwithout triggering a conffile prompt during the upgrade ;)13:00
didrocksseb128: the issue in paris was only the UNE session to not have the location displayed as it was using a different applet. The trick was to have the same but lead to further complication and was removed in A3 for lucid IIRC13:00
chrisccoulsoni think i've nailed it now though, i just need to test all the upgrade combinations again to make sure it still works13:01
didrocksseb128: just checked again gconf keys from UNE, I don't see anything related13:01
didrocksso I would say it's not related for now13:01
seb128didrocks, ok, dunno why those vanished then13:01
seb128didrocks, thanks13:01
didrocksseb128: I don't have event notification integration as well, can be related to e-d-s or that's totally different for locations?13:02
seb128didrocks, that's different13:02
didrocksok, bad try :)13:02

pittiyippie13:06
seb128pitti, well done13:06
seb128didrocks, ok, sorry for the noise, I remember now removing my clock applet rather than the appmenu one by error yesterday13:07
seb128didrocks, I guess that's what cleaned the config13:07
didrocksseb128: oh ok, and cheating the applet name, you can maybe get them back, no?13:07
didrocksseb128: the applet name should correspond IIRC, there is still some hope :-)13:08
didrocks(of course, removing the applet can have removed all related configuration if you're not lucky)13:08
seb128didrocks, it's not like adding location was hard, I had a bunch only, I was just wondering why they were not listd13:09
seb128didrocks, but thanks ;-)13:09
seb128didrocks, (it did clean the config, nothing in .gconf)13:09
didrocksno worry :-)13:09
didrocksok :-)13:10
pittiseb128: gtksourceview2 is newer in maverick than in lucid, but older than lucid-proposed, so I can't just copy the current lucid-proposed to maverick13:32
pittiis it planned to get 2.10.4 into maverick soon? (or just sync from Debian or so?)13:33
seb128pitti, I was planning to sync on debian whenever they update since we are in sync13:33
seb128pitti, I can upload the lucid-proposed version there for now if you want though13:34
seb128there = maverick13:34
pittioh, so we can just scribble over the maverick one?13:34
pittithen I can try a package copy, too13:34

tedgvish, Probably not because we still can't translate modified documentation.14:11
vishoh .. mpt^^14:12
seb128vish, does it make such a difference? if that really makes sense why not arguing upstream for the change?14:13
vishseb128: that doesnt need to be changed upstream. only in the session menu14:14
vishand in the accompanying dialogue prompt14:14
vishtedg: modified documentation of which?  looked like a change in the session menu was sufficient14:15
mclasenif it does make it difference, it should be changed upstream...14:16
tedgvish, I believe there were also changes required in gnome-panel and gnome-power-manager.  Perhaps gnome-session, but I don't remember.14:16
seb128vish, it's not only the session menu, it should be consistent in gnome-session, gdm etc14:17

lool(Hi BTW, i didn't take time to say hello!)14:23
didrockslool: I have no more dep on it, I think n-l-efl still needs it. I'm not sure to have the time and tests for enough maitainance. I still can help if needed14:23

vishmclasen: which is the right package for that to be sent upstream? -session / -power-manager?14:26
loologra: Could you comment whether mobile teams still cares about n-l-efl?14:26
loologra, didrocks: What about moving to newer liblaunchers?  too much work?14:26
loolasac: do we care about n-l-efl?14:27
didrockslool: last time I tried for n-l is was working, but we have no maintainance on it too as the code is now on unity14:28
didrocksin*14:28
didrockslool: this FTBFS should be easy to fix, I can give it a look, but don't rely on active maintenance :)14:29

asac__can someone ping me one time please ;)15:10
loolasac__: liblauncher-0.1 FTBFS, I fixed it but wondered whether that was actually useful15:10
asac__thanks!!15:10
didrockspitti: is it just me or "Try Ubuntu Netbook" in ubiquity doesn't start any session and just hang? (did you already test it on the desktop?)15:11
asac__lool: it was decided to keep efl in low prio maintenance mode15:11
asac__to be reviewed if we find it to cause too much work15:11
pittididrocks: I didn't test it yet; currently installing ubuntu desktop amd6415:11
asac__its still needed for ubuntu arm anyway15:11
asac__lool: mterry is still in charge if there are issues that need an owner15:11
didrockspitti: oh wait, after 4 minutes it switched! Yeah for my netbook :)15:12
didrockspitti: it doesn't show up either in the application places as we don't have the "System" menu for now. So, yeah, I'm fixing it ASAP15:13

ograi'll do some more testing later, currently i need to debug some low level issues with the image, i just wanted to know if the panel is supposed to be there19:12
didrocksargh, I was thinking you were trying from a non arm hardware too :)19:12
ograno, arm beagleboard19:12
ograthe smallest thing we support19:12
