gmcquillan | Is there any plan to backport changes to beanstalkd from 1.4.6 to 1.4.3 for the lucid repos? | 00:33 |
---|---|---|
gmcquillan | 1.4.3 suffers from a fairly significant service vulnerability. | 00:33 |
persia | gmcquillan, There's little chance that anyone who knows the answer to that is about. | 00:38 |
persia | But, I'll happily show you how to find the answer: | 00:38 |
gmcquillan | persia: Ah, great, tahnks. | 00:38 |
gmcquillan | Beanstalkd's changelog doesn't exist. | 00:39 |
persia | 1) https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/beanstalkd/+bugs shows all the bugs we're tracking for beanstalkd | 00:39 |
gmcquillan | Cool. I'll look there. | 00:39 |
persia | Since there is nothing listed, there's a good chance that nobody involved in Ubuntu is paying attention to the issues you are talking about. | 00:39 |
gmcquillan | That's a distinct possibility. | 00:40 |
gmcquillan | I'll file a bug. | 00:40 |
gmcquillan | Thank you. | 00:40 |
persia | 2) https://bugs.launchpad.net/lucid-backports/+bugs shows all the stuff currently in review for backporting to lucid (as distinct from cherrypicking bugfixes) | 00:40 |
persia | Since beanstalk isn't there, it looks like if there are plans to backport, they aren't advanced enough to be public yet (which probably means they don't exist, as the first step in backporting is usually to file a bug) | 00:41 |
ebroder | gmcquillan: you said vulnerability right? persia: wouldn't that be more of an issue for MOTU SWAT than backports? | 00:42 |
persia | ebroder, I'm just pointing at resources to find out about plans to do stuff. Yes, if there is a security issue, and nobody else does anything about it, MOTU SWAT tries to deal. | 00:42 |
gmcquillan | Well, I'll file a bug and go from there. | 00:44 |
persia | gmcquillan, It's worth noting that there's not much history of active Ubuntu interest in beanstalkd, which means that if you want it fixed quickly, you'd do best to be the person fixing it. Filing a bug (especially a security bug) will get attention, but likely not as much as you can provide directly. | 00:44 |
gmcquillan | I'd love to help, but I've never made a deb before, and a cursory look makes it seem really time consuming. | 00:45 |
gmcquillan | I can definitely give it a shot, though. | 00:45 |
m4t | hey, is there a preferred way to switch versions of gcc? eg. from 4.4 to 4.5? ive got it installed but the symlinks in /usr/bin still point to gcc-4.4. is there something like 'update-alternatives' for this? | 00:46 |
kees | m4t: usually you just set CC=gcc-4.4 or whatever and do your build | 00:46 |
m4t | will that use cpp-4.5, etc. then? | 00:47 |
kees | m4t: yeah, each gcc is versioned to use it's matching tools | 00:47 |
m4t | kees thanks | 00:47 |
kees | m4t: np | 00:47 |
m4t | for background on why i'd even bother... ive tried compiling 2.6.35.8 and 2.6.36, but neither will boot | 00:48 |
m4t | didnt see this issue with 2.6.35.7 compiled on 10.04 (which i'm running now) | 00:49 |
persia | gmcquillan, The hardest part for that sort of thing is just preparing the cherrypick patch. There's heaps of folk who can lead you through the process of getting a patch applied. | 00:49 |

m4t | i have been trying for many hours to figure this out; an identical kernel source tree, with identical .config, and identical kernel-package, compiles+boots from lucid. try the same thing on maverick, it compiles, but hangs during boot | 05:08 |
m4t | i've tried both gcc 4.4 and 4.5 | 05:08 |
ebroder | m4t: what kernel version? you can't generally use an older kernel on a newer release | 05:08 |
m4t | 2.6.35.8, 2.6.36, and 2.6.35.7 all hang in the same spot | 05:09 |
ebroder | interesting. well, that exhausts my expertise on kernel hangs | 05:09 |
m4t | right after the first ehci device is setup. if i do things like cmdline=nousb acpi=off pnpbios=off | 05:09 |
m4t | it'll just hang in a different place, like after the ps2 keyboard is initialized | 05:09 |
m4t | i'm guessing its somewhere in the toolchain | 05:10 |
m4t | the 11.04 2.6.36 image boots fine | 05:11 |
m4t | i might debbootstrap 10.04 | 05:13 |
m4t | 2.6.36 compiled inside a lucid debootstrap chroot boots fine | 06:36 |
m4t | :/ | 06:36 |
m4t | i wonder what part of the toolchain is causing that | 06:36 |
m4t | binutils? | 06:36 |

jelmer | cjwatson: Hi | 11:28 |
jelmer | cjwatson: I did some more investigation yesterday; it looks like the branching scheme setting in your configuration was changed for some reason | 11:28 |
j1mc | dholbach: how did things turn out at the UDS session about the packaging-guide? | 11:31 |
j1mc | i'm about to head out to work, but would like to check-in soon about any reactions/feedback, etc. | 11:32 |
dholbach | j1mc, great - I just put up the notes in the blueprint whiteboard, but hope to get to finish the spec today | 11:32 |
dholbach | j1mc, as soon as it's on the wiki I'll let you know | 11:33 |
j1mc | dholbach: thanks :) | 11:33 |
dholbach | j1mc, first week back from UDS was somewhat ... hectic ... to say the least | 11:33 |
dholbach | if not today, then Monday morning | 11:33 |
dholbach | but I'll definitely keep you in the loop | 11:33 |
j1mc | dholbach: no worries. i totally understand. i'm sure there is always a lot to process coming out of UDS. | 11:33 |
dholbach | yes :) | 11:34 |
dholbach | thanks for all your feedback! | 11:34 |
j1mc | yw :) | 11:34 |
jelmer | cjwatson: setting this in ~/.bazaar/subversion.conf should fix it: branching-scheme = list-QlpoOTFBWSZTWZGF0F4AABPRgAAQABK-bR4AIAAhKgGk0eT0oU0yMTExIMb967Iba8QuvgzkikwSS9mEPH4u5IpwoSEjC6C8 | 11:40 |
jelmer | cjwatson: I'm not sure what caused that to change. | 11:41 |
jelmer | cjwatson: Either way, I would recommend an upgrade to the newer mappings at some point. :-) | 11:41 |
cjwatson | jelmer: hm, odd. ok, thanks, I will do that. I decided not to upgrade to the newer mappings because d-i is due to move to git in the very near future anyway | 11:57 |
cjwatson | that looks more promising, it's saying "copying revision 0/128" | 11:58 |
cjwatson | yep, perfect. thanks! | 11:59 |

pitti | Riddell: ah, I guess I need to introduce a DH_SCOUR_FLAGS | 13:09 |
pitti | Riddell: the more interesting question is why it's necessary in the first place; is there a class of images which we sholdn't compress? | 13:09 |
Riddell | pitti: no but it's very fussy about valid XML so I now have a shed load of SVG files to work out how to make valid | 13:11 |

pitti | cjwatson: (just reviewing d-i lucid upload) -- it'll rebuild against 2.6.32-26, I guess that's okay? | 13:16 |
cjwatson | E: libpq-dev is in main but its source (postgresql-9.0) is not. | 13:16 |
cjwatson | pitti: ^- what should be done with this? | 13:16 |
cjwatson | um, d-i hardcodes the kernel version | 13:16 |
cjwatson | or ABI anyway | 13:16 |
pitti | cjwatson: ah, ok; I'll reject it then? | 13:16 |
cjwatson | hang on | 13:17 |
pitti | cjwatson: depends on whether we want to make 9.0 the default version in natty | 13:17 |
cjwatson | no, please accept it - it will build against -updates | 13:17 |
pitti | there are no packaged server-side extensions yet | 13:17 |
cjwatson | the current version in -updates is broken, so I'd like to get that through first | 13:17 |
pitti | so I'm still a bit hesitant | 13:17 |
cjwatson | unless -26 is going to make it to -updates very soon | 13:17 |
pitti | cjwatson: -26 will still say in -proposed for a fair while; it's a huge update | 13:17 |
pitti | cjwatson: alright, thanks for heads-up | 13:18 |
pitti | cjwatson: psql> alternative is to have an ubuntu specific version of 9.0 without the client-side libs | 13:18 |
cjwatson | ok, then it should still be possible to build d-i against -25, since it looks at all of -security, -updates, and -proposed and picks the newest for the selected ABI | 13:18 |
cjwatson | pitti: psql> ok, I have no strong feelings on it, I was just looking at current failures processing new-source | 13:19 |
pitti | I'd rather avoid having two major versions in main | 13:19 |
cjwatson | agreed | 13:19 |
pitti | cjwatson: can we ignore this one for a bit? | 13:19 |
pitti | they are available in my PPA, for people who need it | 13:19 |

pitti | I'll talk to the server team about it, but not today | 13:19 |
pitti | heh | 13:20 |
cjwatson | new-source is pretty manual ... | 13:20 |
cjwatson | the Debian FTP team still seems to be doing quite a lot of NEW processing, despite the freeze | 13:20 |
azeem | well, there was an announcement that they wouldn't, and some outcry | 13:21 |

jcastro | mpt: who is in charge of the renaming of package descriptions work? And is there a spec? | 13:35 |

cjwatson | ScottK: I mailed today's two uploaders directly and CCed ubuntu-archive, but I guess so | 13:40 |

DktrKranz | IIRC, cdbs has some kind of check for copyright holders | 16:28 |
DktrKranz | it will prevent packages from building, but I'm not sure how it works | 16:29 |
seb128 | which nobody seems to use, or at least I've never seen it used | 16:29 |
DktrKranz | yeah, I've always seen it in cdbs maintainer packages only :) | 16:29 |
DktrKranz | other than this, we do some check when some packages need new overrides, but that happens for a very low percentage of packages | 16:30 |
cjwatson | I think "99%" is probably wrong. I'd say considerably more than 1% of packages only ever have one copyright holder. :-) | 16:31 |
=== alecu is now known as alecu-lunch | ||
DktrKranz | maybe it's more than 1%, but indeed it's not so common | 16:32 |
seb128 | cjwatson, right, make that 60% if you want | 16:32 |
DktrKranz | unless you call yourself python*, or kernel* | 16:32 |
seb128 | still it seems we spend time getting the first list but don't update them | 16:32 |
seb128 | so either we need it there and accurate and we have an issue | 16:33 |
seb128 | or we don't and we waste time | 16:33 |
mr_pouit | oh, I think it's very often updated for new major releases | 16:33 |
DktrKranz | first time is mandatory, or you get reject. subsequent uploads, it depends who uploads what | 16:33 |
cjwatson | ISTR this was discussed at painful length on ... was it debian-policy? ... a few months back | 16:34 |
cjwatson | might be worth finding and reviewing that | 16:34 |
DktrKranz | I'm pretty sure nobody would sue me if I forgot to mention a couple of holders, but that can't be the rule | 16:35 |
seb128 | well, do you think the current manual outdated list is buggy over what an automatic grep would be? | 16:35 |
DktrKranz | most of the times a manual grep/licensecheck is fine, but that won't work for perl packages, I guess (they have license info at the bottom of each file) | 16:37 |
DktrKranz | and, sometimes, is not so accurate in case there are more holders, on multiple lines | 16:37 |

cjwatson | DktrKranz: I don't think it was that thread as such, it was something this year I believe | 16:41 |
DktrKranz | mh, I remember something from that lenghty DEP-5 | 16:42 |
DktrKranz | I'll have a better look | 16:42 |
cjwatson | it wasn't a DEP-5 thread, I don't think | 16:43 |

geser | are removals from Debian imported regularly? | 17:20 |
cjwatson | geser: I think the best answer is "irregularly" | 17:22 |
cjwatson | I haven't personally done any this cycle yet, though other admins may have | 17:22 |
geser | ok, do they also include packages with Ubuntu delta or do those need seperate removal requests? | 17:23 |
cjwatson | it's an option in the script | 17:24 |
geser | as I'm never sure when I should file a removal bug or just simply wait for the next removal import | 17:24 |
cjwatson | if you care about particular packages, please feel free to file bugs | 17:24 |
geser | thanks | 17:25 |
segv` | Quick question, trying to figure out the best way to handle this, We're setting up about 50 LTS 10.04 servers and want to create a local repo, but in doing so, we're only going to ever need the 64bit versions of binaries, any of you have a simple solution or recommendation on how to handle this? | 17:31 |
segv` | figured the dev guys would know a thing or to, I can redirect that to -server if need be. | 17:31 |
cjwatson | you could use debmirror with the --arch=amd64 option | 17:36 |
smoser | kees, or cjwatson , if either of you are moderator on technical board mailing list could you let my quarantined messages through ? | 17:39 |
segv` | cjwatson: ah | 17:39 |
didrocks | barry: hey, any idea what to do when we get an error in executing dh_python2: E: dh_python2:146: you most probably have to build extension for python2.7. (I've tried to tweak debian/pyversions or XS-Python-Version without any luck and don't have a lot of insight for dh_python) | 17:43 |
kees | smoser: done | 17:44 |
smoser | thanks. | 17:45 |
kees | np :) | 17:45 |
tumbleweed | didrocks: which package | 17:45 |
didrocks | tumbleweed: compiz-config-python | 17:47 |
didrocks | tumbleweed: was working well (0.9) on maverick, but since I try to build it on natty… | 17:47 |
tumbleweed | didrocks: assuming you mean compizconfig-python, it builds fine for me (and uses dh_pysupport, not dh_python2) | 17:56 |
didrocks | tumbleweed: yeah, you're not building 0.9 I guess | 17:56 |
tumbleweed | presumably :) | 17:57 |
didrocks | tumbleweed: the upstream build system totally changed. So I moved to dh_python2 and now, I have this build issue (which was working fine in maverick, just appeared in natty) | 17:58 |
didrocks | so something changed as we have python2.7 in natty as well, but I don't know enough about dh_python2 and my search on the web was unsuccessful to know what's going on with this error | 17:59 |
tumbleweed | yeah I see they are now using distutils | 17:59 |
tumbleweed | my guess from th eerror is that you aren't building for python2.7, as it says | 17:59 |
tumbleweed | can I see your rules? | 17:59 |
didrocks | apart that I can skip it with --no-guessing-versions | 17:59 |
didrocks | tumbleweed: sure, pushed at lp:~compiz/compizconfig-python/ubuntu | 18:00 |
ScottK | didrocks: Are all the build-depends rebuilt for python2.7 already? | 18:02 |
tumbleweed | didrocks: I'd drop the pyversions, you have a XS-PV as well. XB-PV can also be dropped. | 18:02 |
ScottK | I keep running into that problem. | 18:02 |
tumbleweed | didrocks: th eproblem is your override_dh_auto_install, you only install 2.6 | 18:02 |
tumbleweed | why do you need that override? | 18:02 |
ScottK | And we actually prefer X-P-V to XS-P-V now. | 18:03 |
tumbleweed | err it overrides build too | 18:03 |
didrocks | tumbleweed: you're right, totally forgot about it :) | 18:03 |
didrocks | tumbleweed: well, it's needed because dh_auto_install doesn't do the right thing | 18:03 |
didrocks | tumbleweed: I guess it's confused as the soft as some c code as well | 18:04 |
tumbleweed | didrocks: that's suprising, did they screw up thier setup.py that badly? | 18:04 |
didrocks | tumbleweed: well, possibly, but apart from a complicate setup.py, it seems a "normal one" | 18:04 |
didrocks | hence the fact I have to tweak it | 18:04 |
=== zyga is now known as zyga-food | ||
didrocks | tumbleweed: about pyversion vs XS-PV and XB-PV, is there a doc for dh_python2? | 18:05 |
didrocks | I stopped with pycentral :) | 18:05 |
tumbleweed | it has a manpage | 18:05 |
tumbleweed | (that's about it) | 18:05 |
ScottK | didrocks: The current python-policy describes this too. | 18:06 |
didrocks | yeah, that doesn't explain if we need to drop pyversion and XB-PV :) | 18:06 |
tumbleweed | re XS-PV, XB-PV you'd have to look at debian-python list archives | 18:06 |
didrocks | ScottK: oh really? I'll take a look :) | 18:06 |
ScottK | tumbleweed: Also in Policy | 18:06 |
didrocks | ok, works better once built for python 2.7 :) | 18:07 |
tumbleweed | ScottK: the python-policy on www.d.o still says you should have XB-PV etc | 18:07 |
didrocks | tumbleweed: ScottK: thanks! | 18:07 |
didrocks | tumbleweed: I'll check with upstream and look at the code to see why dh_python2 is confused about the setup.py | 18:08 |
ScottK | tumbleweed: Look in the latest package. Not sure how the one on www.d.o gets updated. | 18:08 |
tumbleweed | ScottK: yeah now that you mentioned it, I seem to remember it being updated in the package | 18:08 |
ScottK | didrocks: We need cases where dh_python2 has trouble to extend it, so please don't work around it. | 18:08 |
ScottK | didrocks: barry will be glad to fix it for you. | 18:08 |
didrocks | ScottK: yeah, I'll add to my "next week" TODO list | 18:09 |
didrocks | just trying to get it updated for now, still not uploaded | 18:09 |
tumbleweed | ScottK: cython hasn't been built for 2.7 yet, and debhelper was using th emakefile rather than setu.py. Memoed didrocks | 18:18 |
ScottK | Thanks. | 18:19 |
