Jarvisanyone around? I'm trying to figure out what else needs to be done to get a bug patched in lucid, before it drives me and everyone else crazy :(00:47
Jarvisi've attached a debdiff to it, subscribed SRU , Sponsors , even attached the patch copied from debian, and its still sitting there :(00:48
JarvisIncidentally the bug has been filed since before Lucid was released (16th March :( )00:49
jdongJarvis: what bug number is this?01:05
jdongin general, the only thing that needs to be done is jdong needs to finish his latest homework/project...01:05
jdongbut since Lucid's release is a ridiculously long amount of time; that probably means I didn't notice the bug report.01:06
JarvisBug #53981401:07
ubottuLaunchpad bug 539814 in tar (Ubuntu Lucid) "tar: futimens() with a bad file descriptor (AT_FDCWD) causes bootstrapping failure with kernels < 2.6.22" [Medium,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/53981401:07
Jarvisthats the tar one anyways01:07
Jarvistheres also a similar bug in coreutils :)(01:07
Jarvis* :(01:07
jdongJarvis: ok, while we're waiting, you should upload a revised debdiff using "-2ubuntu0.1" as the version number01:09
jdongbut that's a minor nitpick.01:09
Jarviskk i'll do that shortly01:09
jdongother than that, there's nothing that you did wrong01:09
jdongunfortunately, tar is in main, and there's far fewer core-devs than universe-uploading devs01:09
jdongand also, tar is really important, which probably scares off most people from touching it ;-)01:10
Jarvistrue01:10
Jarvisi should see if theres a related report for coreutils  as well, as thats the same issue01:10
Jarvisif not i'll file one01:10
jdongmy best advice is to try to find a core developer in #ubuntu-devel to feel comfortable enough to sponsor the patch for you01:10
Jarviskk01:10
Jarvischeers jdong01:10
jdongI don't have core uploading powers, otherwise I'd feel bad and help you right now ;-)01:11
Jarvis;-)01:11
jdongbut once it's uploaded to the queue, I'd be happy to look over and approve it01:11
Jarviskk , cheers :)01:11

tumbleweedbilalakhtar: busy doing it right now. I got sidetracked by writing a sponsorship-listing tool https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~stefanor/ubuntu-dev-tools/sponsor-list10:44
bilalakhtartumbleweed: np :)10:45
bilalakhtarbut little time left, only 3 days!10:45
geserbilalakhtar: tumbleweed can also give live endorsements during the meeting11:25
bilalakhtargeser: Thanks for the idea, well, he can only do so if he's free at that time :_11:26
bilalakhtargeser: I would have asked you for an endorsement but you have sponsored only 1 merge11:26
bilalakhtarbdrung just endorsed, but he pointed out lintian errors with my very first package11:27

tumbleweedbilalakhtar: MOTUs can for universe/multiverse packages. He nedes a core-dev13:23
* vish tickles a core-dev :D13:23
bilalakhtarvish: you're better off asking it in #ubuntu-devel13:23
vishtumbleweed: the problem was the wiki wasnt clear regarding who accepts the task, else didrocks would have opened it himself..13:24
vishSRU is confusing.. probably should try to get bugs fixed before release itself ;p13:25
tumbleweedvish: I think they should be opened whenever it looks like an SRU is going to be necessary or just that the bug is specific to a released version13:26
vishyeah, I'v sometimes noticed seb128 and pitti just opening the task when they get the chance.. but the wiki could be more clear about that13:30
tumbleweedunfortunatly people misunderstand the "nominate" button and try to use it to get attention to their bugs13:31
vish..they think its adding a +1 ;)13:33
* tumbleweed is pretty sure I've done it13:33

didrocksbut yeah, the process isn't very clear on what to do13:38
vishdidrocks: cool, thanks. yeah.. its not clear on the wiki :)13:38
ari-tczewdidrocks: I ascertained to make get-orig-source13:38
* tumbleweed doesn't think it matters too much who does it13:38
didrocksari-tczew: great! should make the repacking more easy13:39
