ev | ScottK, Riddell: http://paste.ubuntu.com/489138/ - partitioning page fixes. Could either of you let me know how well that works for you? I still have to add back the "use largest free space" option, but it should otherwise be complete, functional, and hopefully bug free. | 10:12 |

Riddell | ev: cool, I'll give it a test shortly | 10:25 |

NCommander | cjwatson: hey, not sure if your around, but its been ~2 weeks since I sent mail to d-boot about the changes to libd-i. Any chance we can move towards getting that merged so I can knock that spec out? :-) | 13:09 |
NCommander | cjwatson: or how to move this forward in general | 13:10 |
cjwatson | I'll look over it | 13:15 |
cjwatson | one of our major patch reviewers died recently which hasn't exactly helped | 13:15 |
cjwatson | (replied) | 13:22 |
davmor2 | cjwatson, ev: did you every get the wubi issue resolved? | 13:35 |
davmor2 | was on hols last week | 13:35 |
ev | davmor2: yes | 13:36 |
ev | should work now | 13:36 |
davmor2 | ev: cool I'll give it a spin latter :) | 13:37 |
davmor2 | ev: what was it for future reference | 13:37 |
ev | grub issue | 13:37 |
cjwatson | * wubildr.cfg needs to be run using GRUB's normal parser rather than its | 13:45 |
cjwatson | rescue parser. Rather than embedding it directly as a configuration | 13:45 |
cjwatson | file, embed it as a memdisk and add wubildr-bootstrap.cfg which invokes | 13:45 |
cjwatson | it using normal mode (LP: #600578). | 13:45 |

cjwatson | hmm. the mtime of /casper-rw is getting hashed into apt-cdrom's identification | 15:43 |
cjwatson | that's really not going to help matters | 15:43 |
cjwatson | I'd sort of like to move casper-rw to .disk or something, but then that would require casper changes and everyone would have to have a new version of usb-creator | 15:48 |
cjwatson | and we'd keep on getting bugs about broken OEM installs from people who haven't | 15:48 |
ev | assuming btrfs lands in 11.04, perhaps we should consider replacing the casper-rw machinery with something that leverages btrfs | 15:51 |
ev | and move things around then | 15:51 |
cjwatson | you know, I'm half-tempted to use a dummy apt cdrom method | 15:51 |
cjwatson | all the media-change stuff is a pain and it would be good to be able to just say "no, damnit, /cdrom is it" | 15:52 |
cjwatson | or I suppose I could use LD_PRELOAD | 15:52 |
ev | works for me | 15:52 |
cjwatson | LD_PRELOAD might actually be easier; the filename for the method executable comes from the URI scheme, so it's hard to substitute | 15:53 |
cjwatson | but LD_PRELOADing C++ code, OMG | 15:55 |
ev | haha | 15:55 |
cjwatson | and since casper uses apt-cdrom, anything else that uses apt (e.g. jockey in the live session) will have the same problem | 15:58 |
cjwatson | moving casper-rw out of the root seems like the only feasible option | 15:59 |
cjwatson | does .disk seem like a reasonable place for it? | 16:01 |
cjwatson | or the casper subdirectory, I suppose | 16:01 |
ev | indeed | 16:02 |
CIA-34 | usb-creator: cjwatson * r320 trunk/ (debian/changelog debian/control usbcreator/install.py): Use python-debian for Ubuntu release version comparison. | 16:15 |
cjwatson | ev: is the str(self.target) stuff in usbcreator/install.py still necessary? it seems to be cast to str in some contexts but not in others | 16:28 |
ev | cjwatson: not sure, that's purely PyQt being god-awful. GTK knows how to handle unicode in a sane fashion. | 16:29 |
cjwatson | right, I know, but what I don't get is why the KDE frontend works at all since there are some places where self.target isn't cast | 16:31 |
cjwatson | self.target is only assigned to in one place, so maybe cast it there? | 16:33 |
ev | sure | 16:37 |
ScottK | ev: I can do some testing later today if you still need it. | 16:54 |
ev | ScottK: please do. I haven't had a chance to look at Riddell's bug, but I'm keen to see if it works for you. | 16:55 |
ScottK | ev: OK. Should be able to give it a whack in about 90 minutes. | 16:56 |
ev | cool, thanks! | 16:57 |
NCommander | cjwatson: thanks for your review. I agree with your suggestions and working on rewqorking the patch to incorperate it. | 17:16 |
ev | weird, indicator-session off the custom panel can't seem to talk to ConsoleKit over dbus, despite the session daemon running. | 17:16 |
cjwatson | ev: should I land that usb-creator patch? | 17:24 |
ev | cjwatson: please do | 17:25 |
CIA-34 | usb-creator: cjwatson * r321 trunk/ (9 files in 7 dirs): merge lp:~cjwatson/usb-creator/allow-system-internal | 17:27 |

CIA-34 | ubiquity: Update the panel to use the new location for the panel background, | 17:51 |

CIA-34 | ubiquity: Update the panel to use the new location for the panel background, | 17:51 |

* ev whistles, hopes no one noticed that | 17:51 | |
ev | ah, ck-launch-session sets XDG_SESSION_COOKIE, which is only going to picked up by metacity. Rats. | 18:33 |
ev | right, home time | 18:33 |
ScottK | Riddell: When you're testing ubiquity changes, how do you usually go about doing it? Did you make a .deb with the patch that's somewhere reachable? | 18:33 |
ev | ScottK: you can patch in the live environment, or in casper (setting break=bottom on the kernel command line: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Installer/Development/Tips) | 18:34 |
ev | right, out | 18:34 |
ScottK | Thanks. | 18:34 |
Riddell | ScottK: in this case I patched the files, and just did sudo cp to move them into the right place http://muse.19inch.net/~jr/tmp/ubiquity/ | 18:36 |
ScottK | Thanks. | 18:37 |
Riddell | ev, ScottK: i tried the change again on real hardware and it worked fine | 18:37 |
* ScottK will try to squeeze testing in around the other chores for the afternoon. | 18:37 | |
Riddell | and I've been getting write errors while upgrade testing today | 18:37 |
Riddell | so i think my VM (or my laptop harddisk) is having problems rather than the patch | 18:38 |
=== JanC_ is now known as JanC | ||
ScottK | OK. | 18:41 |
ScottK | Meh. No ubiquity testing for me today. My wife is back from her trip earlier than I'd expected. | 20:27 |
NCommander | cjwatson: so I'm working on reworking the libd-i patch, and after some googling, I think it makes sense to implement the new guess function as a weak symbol (especially because this leaves Debian free to not implement it until its needed) | 21:06 |
NCommander | is that going to cause a problem, or should I rework my WIP patch to use strong symbols only | 21:07 |
cjwatson | NCommander: um, I'm not sure, will probably be easier to judge based on a patch which I can try out, since I always have to look up linker details | 21:37 |
NCommander | cjwatson: ah :-). I don't think we need to touch the linker voodoo in libd-i if its a weak symbol, but once I have a new patch ready (probably by your tomorrow) | 21:40 |
