I'm about to go offline now [11:21] sure, I'll change it back to triaged then too [11:22] So, when does natty open? [11:27] persia: I thought it was open a few days ago [11:27] no, it takes a few days [11:27] It can't be initialised until after release. [11:27] ... and after we sacrifice some goats to Soyuz. [11:28] https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/natty/+queue doesn't seem to show it open (and it is usually initialised frozen for toolchain folks) [11:28] wgrant, Haven't you managed to downgrade the sacrifices to chickens yet? [11:28] wgrant: ah, at least you got it down from the bulls. [11:29] and the whales before that [11:29] But it's been goats for at least since karmic. [11:29] (unless cprov was issuing forward looking statements at the time) [11:32] fagan: Maybe we should try whales again this time. They are more relevant to the release. [11:32] hah [11:33] and the gods would find them more pleasing since they are bigger [11:33] LOL [11:33] unicorns? === hunger_ is now known as hunger [11:34] nigelb: if you can find them and feed them to the whales the gods would be very pleased [11:35] fagan: at the risk of all the little girls cursing me.

[11:46] It exists. [11:46] looks like they had the goats ready [11:46] But none of the Soyuz sacrifice is done yet.

[12:07] highvoltage, Next week, likely. [12:07] 11:35 < rickspencer3> elmo just opened Natty :) [12:07] highvoltage: when we offer a few sacrificial goats to soyez; see discussion above :) [12:08] but presumably we should wait for the toolchain first [12:09] highvoltage: I agree being on a stable release is annoying /me quickly installs debian unstable [12:09] We can dist-upgrade whilst waiting for the toolchain, just can't upload anything. Mind you, this may result in a need to reinstall, but ... [12:09] (kidding) [12:09] Riddell: :) [12:13] \p/ spiffy new fridge http://ubuntu-news.org/ [12:14] nigelb, So, for folks subscribed to the RSS feed, are you doing something nifty to inform the readers of the new feed subscription? [12:16] persia: I think there will be an announcement on the old feed (fi there isn't one already) [12:17] persia: there is one already: http://fridge.ubuntu.com/node/2141 [12:18] all we need is a new planet.ubuntu.com and we have the set of updated sites [12:18] nigelb, Sure, but no automation to help clients resubscribe. One has to open a browser, investigate the website, select the new feed, etc. [12:21] highvoltage, "flavours" :p [12:25] persia: I'm just being consistant with how it's being called everywhere else atm :) [12:26] Where else? Who else do I have to complain at? [12:26] * persia sees a *huge* difference between flavours, participating as part of Ubuntu, and derivatives, who use the results of a release to build something else. [12:26] persia: http://www.ubuntu.com/project/derivatives [12:27] Ugh. That wasn't there before. [12:27] persia: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DerivativeTeam/Derivatives [12:27] * persia files yet another website bug [12:27] That one is hard to change for annoying historical reasons, sadly === smb`` is now known as smb [12:30] persia: the top results for searching ubuntu flavours results in pages that refer to what you would call derivatives as flavours: [12:30] http://www.lczajkowski.com/2010/01/23/new-flavours-of-ubuntu-being-developed-in-ireland/ [12:30] http://ubuntulinuxhelp.com/ubuntu-based-linux-32-flavours-and-then-some/ [12:31] persia: It would be nice to have it defined properly somewhere and have that definition updated everywhere so that there could be better consensus and better use of these terms [12:33] highvoltage, I know. I've been hunting for slibs cogent distinction between "remix" and "flavour" for a while, and can't find it (which annoys me). I fear that page may have been a victim of the "Ubuntu Netbook Remix" nomenclature discussions, and then the wiki history was lost in a site update. [12:33] The nice guide to when one had to use "remix" to be within the trademark guidelines has also gone missing (and finding good language for these is currently blocking me from some tasks). [12:34] But I think there is a vast difference in each class of Flavour (e.g. Edubuntu), Remix (e.g. Ubuntu Japanese Remix), and Derivative (e.g. gNewSense) [12:35] persia: *nod* [12:36] Anyway, thanks for being the target of my rant about this :) Please help rant at folk in the future to preserve the useful semantic distinctions, and maintain our reputation for quality for all flavours. [12:49] persia: will do [12:49] Thanks :) === robbiew is now known as robbiew_ [13:28] hi all... I'm having a bit of trouble working out to build someting I get from apt-get source [13:28] I want to find the right way, so I can build a package and install it instead of just using make install [13:29] real_ate, You're looking to fix a bug in Ubuntu, or package something separately? [13:29] persia: fix a bug [13:29] Excellent. Just wanted to make sure we'd be on-topic :) [13:29] cool cool [13:30] I know there was some command to run in the same folder as you run apt-get source... i did it before but I can't remember [13:30] It packaged up the deb and applied any patches if there were any [13:31] Maybe `debuild -S -us -uc -i -I`? [13:31] ooo... that sounds familliar! [13:31] * real_ate goes googling [13:31] That should convert an unpacked source, post modification, into a new source package. [13:32] It's a good idea to make sure you've used `dch -i` to get a new changelog entry, so you can be sure you end up with the right newer version when you make the new source. [13:33] hmm interesting... these are all part of the devscripts package then? [13:33] * real_ate is not used to working like this [13:33] I think so. [13:33] Yep. [13:34] Now, to convert the now updated source package with the patch to fix the bug into a binary package there are three common techniques. [13:34] Most of us use pbuilder or sbuild [13:35] You can also use `debuild -b` but this may not result in the same thing as you'd get if your patch was uploaded, so isn't the best test. [13:35] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/HowToFix#The%20traditional%20process is a sensible place to start digging around on the wiki [13:38] pitti: regarding bug 654236, i dont think a backport would be possible, since alot of work had to be done to port choqok to OAuth, ill contact upstream and see if its realistically possible tho [13:38] Launchpad bug 654236 in choqok (Ubuntu Lucid) "SRU : Please release choqok 0.9.85 for lucid" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/654236 [13:39] persia: thanks for all the help! that page is exactly what I was looking for but wansn't quite able to find :) [13:39] persia: hopefully you've helped me fix a rather annoying bug! cheers! [13:39] real_ate, Which bug? [13:39] i'm working on KDE gdm integration [13:40] oooh ^ [13:40] Oh my :) If you get it sorted, please remember to try to get it into Ubuntu, so we all have it fixed. I think three are links to the sponsoring processes from that page. [13:40] persia: i'm usually an upstream developer but I want to see if I can do this the right way and get a patch into LTS [13:41] persia: thats the plan [13:41] :) [13:41] Excellent. [13:41] real_ate: what needs done with KDE gdm integration? [13:42] Riddell: it wasn't updated since the gdm protocol was updated [13:42] so things like... you can't shutdown in KDE when you have gdm enabled [13:42] selecting "switch user" actually just locks the screen [13:42] etc. [13:43] Hi. When I am trying to upload my ssh key to launchpad it says invalid key. Do I need to upload everything in the id_rsa.pub file i.e. the last username@hostname too? [13:44] mindentropy, I'd recommend asking in #launchpad: they likely know better than us. [13:45] mindentropy: Yes. [13:45] real_ate: ah right, would be good to have that fixed, sounds like a patch for kdebase-workspace somewhere [13:45] I believe you need the comment too. [13:46] Riddell: well i've got a fedora patch to use as a starting point [13:46] real_ate: ah hah, so worth checking if the patch is in upstream KDE or not [13:46] first point of call is to try that and see if it works, then get out my bug investigation hat! [13:46] Riddell: its not [13:47] Riddell: that is why i'm doing this... i'm trying to get this done [13:51] persia: that page you sent me is suggesting that i work off the bzr repo... should i do it that way or can I just work off the apt-get source ? [13:53] I just work off apt-get source myself. Saves fussing with bzr. There's all sorts of fancy infrastructure that handles commiting my uploads into bzr without me needing to think about it at all. [13:55] tsimpson: pong :P [13:56] topic needs to be updated for karmic :) === tsimpson changed the topic of #ubuntu-devel to: Archive: {{Kate to make major update in this space!}} | Development of Ubuntu (not support, not app development) | #ubuntu for support and general discussion for dapper-maverick | #ubuntu-app-devel for application development on Ubuntu | http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment | See #ubuntu-bugs for http://wiki.ubuntu.com/HelpingWithBugs [14:01] BTW, according to do-release-upgrade maverick is still classed as a development release, is that correct? [14:01] or are you waiting for the servers to calm down a bit first :p [14:03] * real_ate imagines the servers seeing red and going a little bit green and "hulky" [14:03] hehe :p [14:03] Jarvis: it should work [14:04] but -d will take care of it [14:05] yea thats what i've had to do, unfortunately if your using karmic, it only offers lucid , unless you do -d ... and if your on lucid, you get 'No new release found' unless you use -d [14:05] upgrade-manager (not sure if that uses do-release-upgrade or not) is the same . it doesn't see maverick [14:07] Jarvis: are you set to long term (aka LTS) or normal releases? [14:08] i've not set anything, neither has my friend [14:08] so its whatever the defaults are [14:09] please check the release target [14:11] BUGabundo: its set to lts .. and it seems thats the default :( [14:12] yes [14:12] so change to normal [14:15] cheers BUGabundo [14:15] np === BUGabundo is now known as BUGabundo_movies === BUGabundo_movies is now known as BUGabundo_AFK === bilalakhtar_ is now known as bilalakhtar [15:18] wow! this debuild stuff is COOL! :D [15:21] one question though... first i ran debuild -S and it generated the source package but it said that it was building too [15:22] does it build a binary package with debuild -S ? [15:23] grr... and now i've run debuild -S -us -uc but where does it build the deb package? :/ [15:31] real_ate, To convert a source package to a binary package, you likely want sbuild or pbuilder. You can use `debuild -b` but it's not recommended. [15:31] !sbuild [15:31] sbuild is a system to easily build packages in a clean schroot environment. To get started with SBuild, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SbuildLVMHowto [15:31] !pbuilder [15:31] pbuilder is a system to easily build packages in a clean chroot environment. To get started with PBuilder, see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/PbuilderHowto [15:31] `mk-sbuild` or `pbuilder-dist` from the ubuntu-dev-tools package will likely make it much easier to set up either one. [15:32] i take it that those convienience scripts are detailed on those how-to pages? [15:32] is Lubuntu an official derivative yet (I think no, but I'd like to confirm)? [15:35] nigelb, no, it's not on the Ubuntu release announcement [15:35] Not yet [15:35] Thank you :) [15:36] lubuntu *is* a fine derivative. it's 99% of the way to being a flavour (but not there yet) [15:37] it needs a bit more sugar to have correctt flavour (:) [15:37] No. Needs someone (me) to publish clear documentation on how to become a flavour, and someone (else) to stamp it as the official procedure. [15:38] wow! pbuilder is even cooler than debuild! :D he he he [15:38] Sugar is a different proto-flavour [15:39] And I hear that there may be discussion of spice at UDS, although I'm not yet convinced I understand it entirely. [15:40] the remote video thing? [15:44] No, nor the circuit simulator thing. something related to flavours, but I'm waiting for a spec to be drafted. [15:45] grrr! damn you release! pbulder can't rectrieve its packages cos I assume the servers are busy! oh what a world! ;) [15:47] shadeslayer: fair enough [15:47] real_ate, The couple days after release are the least convenient for doing Ubuntu development (unless you happen to live near a mirror that doesn't have many users). [15:48] real_ate: +1 [15:48] persia: :D what is the process of mirroring? lol [15:52] real_ate, You don't want to start now :) https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Mirrors [15:52] lol [15:54] it would be done in 2 days time and by then i could just develop normally :D [15:56] real_ate, I doubt that. When there's no current release, setting up a mirror usually takes a week or two (for sites with lots of bandwidth). [16:09] well things are starting to pick up now! I just wonder what it will do when it comes to the end... "sorry all that time is wasted 'cos we couldn't get these packages: {blah}" ;) [16:10] interestingly they were only warnings and not errors :s [16:11] I think it retries until it succeeds. I don't use pbuilder, but for sbuild I always pass debootstrap-mirror= to point at a local mirror. [16:11] I seem to remember pbuilder-dist having some code that tried to automate that, but I'm unsure how well it works. [16:12] persia: well i was having trouble with the UK mirror so I changed my sources to the main server... but this pbuilder is still using the local mirror [16:13] so it must be doing something intilligent! === BUGabundo is now known as BUGabundo_movies === huntz0r_ is now known as huntz0r [16:41] nope!

[17:08] btw, anyone from Portugal here? [17:18] diogorcorreia: #ubuntu-pt [17:22] hello? [17:22] !ask | jackyalcine [17:22] jackyalcine: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-) [17:23] okay [17:23] soo ive been looking at IDEs [17:23] and im accustomed to Visual Studio. [17:23] of course this doesnt work on Ubuntu [17:24] but i want to use GTK [17:24] soo ? [17:24] good ideas? [17:29] ? [17:30] jackyalcine, try mono-develop [17:31] i have. [17:31] it wasn't to my taste, though. [17:31] not a fully extensible system. [17:31] what language do you wnt to use? Yeah, wasn't to mine either tbh, but its as good as it gets AFAIK for .net dev under linux [17:34] C++ [17:34] or C [17:34] so far, the Qt framework's awesome. [17:34] i'm working on making a more efficient GUI for the AirCrack software. [17:37] jackyalcine, sounds cool! I'm not a c/cpp programmer so I don't think I'll be of too much use, have you tried out ajanta? I mean if you use that in conjunction with glade, you might be onto a winner [17:38] other than that, eclipse or netbeans might be a better option, I've only used those for java development, but they do support c/c++ [17:49] jackyalcine, just tried out anjuta, seems to do what you need it to do. In my opinion, the gui builder is not quite as simple to use as the visual studio one, but may be good enough for what you need. [17:49] ajunta was okayy! [17:49] but i need a GUI with forms intergration.. saves time. [17:49] and eclipse has a plugin for Qt, it's okay, but Eclipse feels bloated. [17:49] and Netbeans... >_< not a fan of Oracle. [17:51] have you tried QtCreator? [17:51] oh, you want to use Gtk+ [17:54] jackyalcine, if you double click the .ui file in the src folder of your new gtk+ project it comes up with a form builder thing, is that what you're after? [17:54] yess, huntz0r [17:55] im in for RAD for C/C++ [18:14] valac seems an interesting approach [18:15] valac? [18:15] http://live.gnome.org/Vala [18:15] jackyalcine: It's an object based C varient where gobject's are 1st class parts of the language [18:15] shotwell is written in it [18:16] interesting. [18:59] pitti: Yes although my hope is that wine 1.2.1 can go through like today [19:11] keybuk: there's a question about yer MoM on the end of https://bugs.launchpad.net/indicator-application/+bug/625793 [19:11] Launchpad bug 625793 in Application Indicators "Regression: Multiple Keyboard Layouts unusable: continuously changes layout + 100% CPU usage [updated]" [Undecided,In progress] [19:12] keybuk: wondering how to extract just a portion of a patch [19:23] pitti: 1) Upstream says its not possible to backport and 2) upstream says we need to ship choqok 0.9.90 and qoauth 1.01 [19:23] um [19:24] 1.0.1 [19:35] sladen: the thing that popped to mind when I read that was: queue the "Yo Momma" jokes ;P [19:39] pitti: ping [19:54] slangasek: did you know this bug? bug 653274 [19:54] Launchpad bug 653274 in linux (Ubuntu) "Plymouth doesn't show Kubuntu or Ubuntu logo with Nvidia proprietary driver" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/653274 [19:56] ari-tczew, Do you know if it is fixable? I thought that required KMS support for the relevant DRI. [19:57] persia: I don't know. I think that I'm also affected by this bug and now I'm attaching a photo to this bug. [19:58] ari-tczew, I'd encourage you not to highlight folk about bugs unless you happen to have some ideas about them to help fix them. Especially not in this channel. [19:58] persia: I don;t mind. [19:59] Sure, but the folk you highlight might :) [20:01] persia: I saw that slangasek is involved in plymouth, so I wanted ask him whether he knows this bug. that's all. [20:01] and making too much policy in communicator making me upset (and I think that not only me) [20:01] we are not robot to talking in procedures [20:02] I'm not trying to set policy. I just think that this channel works better when people use it to collaborate to solve issues, rather than asking about the many bugs. [20:02] Entirely my opinion, really. [20:03] persia: it's just release day, I think it doesn't matter which channel is excellent. natty is not open yet. [20:04] So? Here's a list of a good bundle of issues probably not in the bug tracker that are probably release-critical and need immediate SRU: http://qa.ubuntuwire.com/bugs/rcbugs/ [20:05] persia: OK, I won't investigate in bugs. [20:05] you did this one. I'm discouraged. [20:05] Feel free to investigate anything you like. [20:06] persia: take your policy communication and destroy ubuntu contribution. ban me if I couldn't ask here for bugs in fresh release. [20:07] is this the final/offical xubuntu - http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/10.10/release/ [20:07] Like I said before, I'm only expressing my opinion. I am not telling you about policy. I'm not currently someone who even could ban from this channel. [20:07] why it's not part of xubuntu's site? [20:07] owen1, yes. Dunno. Maybe the xubuntu guys didn't update their site yet. [20:08] persia: I think that we can close this discussion at this moment. [20:14] persia: do they have an irc channel? we should tell them there is a new release... [20:15] owen1, I suspect they know, but you might try #xubuntu or #xubuntu-devel [20:15] The trick is that there might be a gap between the folk who know about the release and the folk who know how to update the website to talk about the release. [20:25] hi there [20:25] anybody seen problems on upgrading from 10.04 to 10.10 via "do-release-upgrade -d" like http://pastebin.ca/1958814 [20:25] without glibc systems are not so comfortable :) [20:27] spy6, That's definitely unexpected. Please file a bug. I suspect it's specific to your system (but have no idea why) [20:27] persia: any suggestions which package? [20:28] anyways .. even debugging is not so easy without glibc [20:28] I'd file against update-manager to start. [20:29] any ideas if that problem maybe recoverable? i guess without glibc i need to reinstall [20:29] If you can get to IRC, you can probably grab the .deb from somewhere, adn dpkg -i install it. [20:29] Reinstallation might be easier. [20:29] But if you reinstall, you'll havea hard time recreating the environment that exposes the bug. [20:29] persia: dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_2.12.1-0ubuntu6_i386.deb [20:29] dpkg: /lib/tls/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.4' not found (required by dpkg) [20:30] Oh, heh. [20:30] persia: i'm online from a different system [20:30] even dpkg needs glibc [20:30] Yeah, recovery from that might be highly awkward. [20:31] It...seems wrong that dpkg will let you remove dependencies of essential packages without extensive whining and screaming [20:31] Boot with a live CD and unpack the deb to the root partition manually [20:31] ebroder: yeah, thought so [20:31] ebroder, libc6-i686 oughtn't be essential, because there's libc6 (but something is odd) [20:31] ion: eh! nice idea ;) [20:32] will try that tomorrow, when i have physical access to the system [20:51] ari-tczew: I've not been involved in plymouth maintenance this cycle; and I don't have any hardware that uses the proprietary drivers, so it's hard for me to debug such things [21:12] whats a good alternative for #ubuntu? [21:17] what do you mean, "alternative"? [21:18] slangasek: a smaller and more lively place maybe, where people discuss Ubuntu related topics [21:20] GPenguin: #ubuntuforums? [21:20] micahg: ah, thats a good one. i keep forgetting about it [21:22] sabdfl: ubuntu is 6 years old with this release right? if you add the numbers of 42 (4+2) you get 6. [21:24] I’m sure there are about a million ways to get a random number related to Ubuntu from another set of numbers related to Ubuntu. ;-) [21:24] highvoltage: the real magic number for (german) hackers is 23 tho [21:25] cause Robert A. Wilson said so [21:25] and i am not saying sabdfl is involved in that conspiracy :-P [21:25] 23, 2+3 - 5, Ubuntu 5 was the first release. RIGHT?! [21:29] GPenguin: The first release of Ubuntu was 4.10 Warty Warthog. [21:29] oh, bummer [21:30] when natty will be open? [21:31] ari-tczew: asking multiple times won't help, the answer is when it's ready :) [21:32] micahg: I know, but the sooner is the better [21:33] ari-tczew: anyway, you want to have the toolchain uploaded and some of the most common packages to be updated before uploading anything to a new release. [21:34] ari-tczew: also, it's usually a good idea to wait for UDS so at least you know what's the focus for the next release and what you should be focusing on. [21:34] stgraber: ok I understand and I remember, that it's related to gcc updates. [21:35] stgraber: heh, I work there where I want to work. [21:36] ! [21:36] ari-tczew: but what if the entire team works against you then? [21:37] knowing what the team plans to do can really help [21:37] ari-tczew: yes, gcc is one of the packages that's part of the toolchain indeed. So is binutils and the libc. Any major change of these might require rebuild of everything else that was uploaded. [21:38] GPenguin: there are a lot of things to do - merges, security updates, rc bugs, ftbfs, SRUs. I'm not a Canonical employee and I won't work with UDS objectives. I could, but I don't need. [21:41] speaking of security updates, i am wondering what the status is regarding apparmor. it seems to disappear from novell/suse sites since quite a while. and the ubuntu community does not really reflect on it either [21:41] is a proper selinux integration maybe more desireable? [21:42] GPenguin: apparmor is actively used in Ubuntu and has been accepted as part of the linux mainline kernel [21:43] micahg: how do you know its actively used when i may ask so directly? [21:44] GPenguin: it's installed by default [21:44] tomoyo e.g. is also accepted upstream btw [21:45] GPenguin: https://launchpad.net/apparmor [21:45] yeah, its installed by default like many other things. but it does not mean many people make use of it [21:45] GPenguin: it works behind the scenes in most cases to enhance security [21:46] GPenguin: advanced questions about security are welcome on #ubuntu-hardened [21:48] i am asking cause ... the only documentation is the release notes. the ubuntu wiki points to a suse wiki that does not exist, etc. [21:49] that leaves a lot of mystery to the average users [21:52] GPenguin: what page has the link to suse? [21:52] GPenguin: apparmor is primarily maintained by Canonical these days [21:52] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AppArmor [21:53] in the resources section [21:53] ok. I'll adjust [21:53] thats where it _would_ get interesting actually. there it stops :-))) [21:53] GPenguin: there is also https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AppArmor [21:54] checking it out, thanks [21:55] ah, and there is a *-doc package which i missed [21:55] lets see [21:59] thats it, exactly what i was looking for: /usr/share/doc/apparmor-docs/techdoc.pdf [22:01] GPenguin: ok, the community page has been edited. you might also be interested in https://apparmor.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Documentation [22:01] (I also added that to the wiki) [22:01] * jdstrand wanders off [22:03] hang on, why does that page look a lot different from the other kernel.org resource, hmmm [22:03] GPenguin: it is a wiki page. projects in the kernel can ask for a wiki and they can do with it what they want [22:04] yeah, somebody should re-work https://apparmor.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Main_Page maybe [22:04] GPenguin: it isn't 'official kernel documentation' -- but AppArmor is in the kernel so it is eligible to have a wiki hosted in the kernel.org namespace [22:04] problem is, that i dont understand enough yet to be of any help [22:04] GPenguin: the apparmor wiki is a work in progress [22:05] there is a lot to do... [22:05] but its good to know that Canonical took over from Novell [22:05] so its no dead investment to learn more about it [22:06] GPenguin: hardly! it is now in the official upstream kernel :) [22:06] :-) [22:08] GPenguin: we (Canonical and AppArmor upstream) are actively working on it for maintenance and features. you can expect more distributions besides Ubuntu and Suse (et al) to have it now that it is official (eg Debian) [22:09] while redhat is more into expanding selinux support so it feels [22:09] * jdstrand nods [22:10] Ubuntu also has selinux available too, but it isn't the best fit for Ubuntu [22:10] that is oversimplified [22:11] AppArmor is a better default choice for Ubuntu [22:11] for a desktop that changes often it requires too much work [22:11] * jdstrand notes that Ubuntu is much, much more than a desktop OS [22:11] e.g. with browsers like chromium [22:12] than 'just' a desktop OS :) [22:12] well! :-) [22:12] okay ... i recovered vrom brocken libc [22:12] the whole cloud computing stuff has yet to be defined [22:13] (we've had a server install for years) [22:13] and it is quite good, imnsho [22:13] anybody a guess, why upgrading to 10.10 result into http://pastebin.ca/1958827?
