RoAkSoAx | hi all... after the recent change to the linker (passing --as-needed by default) I have a package that is FTBFS with something like "./.libs/libpengine.so: undefined reference to `resource_location'." So I was wondering how can I find where are those symbols located (or in which library), so that I can add that to LDFLAGS? | 00:28 |
---|---|---|
RoAkSoAx | before the change, the message was "warning: symbol resource_location used by debian/libpengine3/usr/lib/libpengine.so.3.0.0 found in none of the libraries." however it didn't FTBFS | 00:29 |
micahg | RoAkSoAx: use apt-file to search for the library that provides that? | 00:31 |
james_w | RoAkSoAx, that's rather a generic name for a symbol, so it might be supposed to come from the package itself. Might be worth grepping the package source first | 00:32 |
RoAkSoAx | james_w: i did that with this result: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/532677/ | 00:33 |
ebroder | RoAkSoAx: It's in lib/pengine/utils.{h,c} | 00:34 |
james_w | RoAkSoAx, ok, so depending on the buildsystem there is probably a missing dependency between parts of the project | 00:34 |
james_w | RoAkSoAx, is it autotools? | 00:34 |
RoAkSoAx | james_w: yes it is | 00:35 |
RoAkSoAx | ebroder: right, but that's the thing, libpengine says those are missing symbols of itself? | 00:35 |
james_w | RoAkSoAx, it probably doesn't link utils.o in to libpengine.so | 00:36 |
RoAkSoAx | james_w: so what could be the possible fix? patch the makefile somehow? | 00:37 |
RoAkSoAx | james_w: or telling it to use that utils.o by passing it through LDFLAGS? | 00:38 |
james_w | RoAkSoAx, I'm just trying to remember how all this works | 00:38 |
RoAkSoAx | james_w: this is the makefile btw http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/532685/ | 00:44 |
james_w | RoAkSoAx, that doesn't seem to build libpengine | 00:47 |
james_w | RoAkSoAx, can you grep for libpengine in all Makefile.am in the tree? | 00:47 |
achiang | RoAkSoAx: what package are you actually building? libpengine? | 00:48 |
james_w | achiang, pacemaker | 00:49 |
achiang | is there a full build log available somewhere? | 00:50 |
RoAkSoAx | james_w: the only one that list libpengine i a makefile is this one: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/532686/ | 00:50 |
RoAkSoAx | achiang: i'll get it for you :) | 00:51 |
james_w | RoAkSoAx, line 59 has utils.c, which is what I would have suggested you add :-) | 00:52 |
RoAkSoAx | achiang: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/59133765/buildlog_ubuntu-natty-amd64.pacemaker_1.0.9.1%2Bhg15626-2ubuntu1_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz | 00:52 |
RoAkSoAx | james_w: indeed, and yet it still FTBFS | 00:52 |
james_w | RoAkSoAx, ah, it's building the executable when it fails | 00:54 |
james_w | RoAkSoAx, now I'm even more confused :-) | 00:57 |
james_w | it seems to link pengine fine the line before, then fail when linking ptest | 00:58 |
RoAkSoAx | james_w: indeed it is confusing... I think I'll just opt for a ' -Wl,--no-as-needed' to disable the '--as-needed' | 01:00 |
ebroder | RoAkSoAx: That seems almost certainly like obscuring the problem... | 01:01 |
RoAkSoAx | ebroder: indeed... but upstream doesn't even know why it may be failing and I can't seem to find a solution for the problem :( | 01:03 |
ebroder | resource_location isn't declared static or something like that, is it? | 01:03 |
RoAkSoAx | ebroder:in utils.h is extern void resource_location(resource_t *rsc, node_t *node, int score, const char *tag, pe_working_set_t *data_set); | 01:06 |
achiang | this looks like an optimizer problem to me | 01:06 |
ebroder | ...it's declared extern? | 01:06 |
RoAkSoAx | ebroder: and in utils.c is just a simple voide resource_location... | 01:06 |
achiang | if object file foo.o requires symbols from object file (or library) bar.[s]o, then foo.o must come to the *right* of bar.[s]o in the linker invocation | 01:06 |
achiang | otherwise, the optimizer strips out all unused symbols from foo.o | 01:07 |
achiang | sorry, the optimizer strips out unused symbols from bar.[s]o | 01:08 |
RoAkSoAx | achiang: could you provide an example cause I don't seem to follow :S | 01:08 |
achiang | RoAkSoAx: let's say ptest.o needs a symbol from libpengine.so | 01:08 |
achiang | that means when you link it, you must say: bla bla bla -lpengine -o ptest.o | 01:09 |
achiang | what happens is the linker looks at the symbols in ptest.o; it sees something called "resource_location", and it's undefined in ptest.o | 01:10 |
achiang | "no problem" says the linker, i'll find it later somewhere up the line | 01:10 |
achiang | if you do it the other way around, the linker looks at libpengine.so, and sees a symbol called "resource_location" | 01:11 |
achiang | it says, "hm, no one is using this symbol yet, so i can just optimize it out" | 01:11 |
RoAkSoAx | achiang: so this should be changed from: -o .libs/ptest ptest.o ../lib/common/.libs/libcrmcommon.so ../lib/pengine/.libs/libpe_status.so ./.libs/libpengine.so -lncurses /usr/lib/libhbclient.so /usr/lib/libccmclient.so -lcoroipcc ../lib/cib/.libs/libcib.so ../lib/transition/.libs/libtransitioner.so /usr/lib/libgnutls.so /usr/lib/libplumb.so /usr/lib/libpils.so -lbz2 /usr/lib/libxslt.so /usr/lib/libxml2.so -lc -luuid -lpam -lrt -ldl /usr/lib/libgl | 01:11 |
achiang | then when you try and link ptest.o, you get the undefined reference | 01:11 |
achiang | RoAkSoAx: that is my theory without actually looking at any code. it's a simple test to try for now | 01:12 |
achiang | RoAkSoAx: in one sentence, the linker reads from right to left, not left to right. so you must arrange your objects that way | 01:12 |
ebroder | achiang: AFAICT, pengine is using automake+libtool in the way that the docs recommend. If you're right, then all automake+libtool things should be breaking | 01:12 |
RoAkSoAx | achiang: so how would I do that, fixing up the Makefile? | 01:14 |
achiang | RoAkSoAx: let me try and find an example | 01:15 |
RoAkSoAx | achiang: thanks :) | 01:15 |
achiang | ebroder: like i said, it's just a theory | 01:15 |
achiang | RoAkSoAx: here's one that i fixed a while ago... https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alpine/+bug/668499 | 01:17 |
achiang | RoAkSoAx: hm, that is not very instructive, is it? :-/ | 01:18 |
achiang | feh, my natty pbuilder seems busted. can't do a test build of pacemaker due to unmet dependencies | 01:20 |
RoAkSoAx | achiang: more or less :/ I'd just need to find where to patch it :) | 01:21 |
achiang | RoAkSoAx: as a quick test for my theory, i think you can try adding this: | 01:27 |
RoAkSoAx | achiang: yes....? | 01:29 |
achiang | ptest_LDFLAGS = -l$(top_builddir)/lib/... | 01:29 |
achiang | sorry, trying to figure out the relative path of libpengine.so | 01:29 |
RoAkSoAx | achiang: cool I will. Thanks for the help :) | 01:30 |
achiang | RoAkSoAx: sorry, that's not complete yet | 01:30 |
achiang | still trying to figure out the answer | 01:31 |
achiang | ah, ok. there it is | 01:31 |
achiang | add this to the proper makefile: | 01:31 |
achiang | ptest_LDFLAGS = libpengine.la | 01:31 |
achiang | i *think* that should force the library *before* ptest.o | 01:31 |
achiang | RoAkSoAx: if you try that, can you please show me the build output afterwards, whether it works or not? | 01:32 |
RoAkSoAx | achiang: i will | 01:33 |
RoAkSoAx | achiang: I added this, but shows same error: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/532712/ | 01:41 |
achiang | RoAkSoAx: ok, i need to see the complete build log please | 01:41 |
RoAkSoAx | http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/532713/ | 01:41 |
RoAkSoAx | achiang: oh ok, give me a sec | 01:41 |
achiang | RoAkSoAx: nm, i see it didn't make it onto the linker line | 01:42 |
achiang | RoAkSoAx: i don't know how to force libpengine.la before ptest.o to test my idea. perhaps whereever you were going to add "-Wl,--no-as-needed", you could instead add the reference to the library instead | 01:44 |
RoAkSoAx | achiang: yest that's what I was thinking off | 01:44 |
RoAkSoAx | achiang: something like LDFLAGS += -Wl,--no-as-needed -libpengine.la -Wl,--as-needed ? | 01:46 |
achiang | RoAkSoAx: well... i would not use -Wl,--no-as-needed because as mentioned earlier, that masks the real problem. | 01:47 |
achiang | RoAkSoAx: try LDFLAGS += -llibpengine.la | 01:47 |
achiang | RoAkSoAx: but i must admit, you might have to play around with that a little. sorry, i'm not giving very good advice right now, a little distracted and thinking about dinner (i'm GMT-7) | 01:48 |
RoAkSoAx | achiang: haha that's fine :)... I'm in same situation (GMT-5) | 01:50 |
achiang | :) speaking of which, time to go a-foraging | 01:50 |
RoAkSoAx | achiang: i'll try that but im too tired and too hungry to keep on fighting with it. Thanks for your help :) | 01:52 |
RoAkSoAx | ebroder: james_w thank you to you too guys :) | 01:53 |

TLE | pitti: Hallo, I'm presently working on the schedule for language packs updates for Maverick. I was wondering how long it takes to build them and distribute to the proposed update repositories | 10:32 |
pitti | TLE: building and uploading the sources takes about 3 hours; getting them built about half a day | 10:33 |
pitti | a full base export takes a bit longer | 10:33 |
TLE | pitti: more specifically, if the build starts on wednesdays at 1400 UTC at which time can I then plan on those packages being built, you copying them to proposed and finally them being distributed among the mirrors? | 10:33 |
pitti | TLE: your first "the build" is for the LP export, or langpack-o-matic? | 10:34 |
TLE | langpack-o-matic | 10:36 |
TLE | the exports seems to have a welldefined timeframe for them in this schedule: https://dev.launchpad.net/Translations/LanguagePackSchedule | 10:36 |
pitti | TLE: it wildly depends on the load of the buildds, but I'd say 12 hours in good circumstances (by and large idle buildds), and 20 in peak times | 10:38 |
TLE | ok, then after they are built, how much time for you to upload to proposed and circulate between mirrors, roughly? | 10:39 |
TLE | What'm really interested in is when we can tell users they can start testing them | 10:40 |
pitti | TLE: those 12/20 hours include the total turnaround starting from langpack-o-matic cron job | 10:40 |
pitti | until you can apt-get them on clients | 10:41 |
TLE | ahh ok, I thought that you would have to manually intervene to upload to proposed | 10:41 |
pitti | TLE: I do, but that's part of the process | 10:42 |
pitti | TLE: we never upload anything to -proposed automatically | 10:42 |
pitti | we do (or at least, want to, it's broken right now) upload to the daily PPA, and from there it's a manual process to copy to -proposed | 10:43 |
TLE | I'm a little confused, so as it is right now, you start a process at the dates we agree on that builds the latest exported files from launchpad and puts them in proposed, and that takes <24 hours, correct? | 10:45 |
pitti | right | 10:45 |
pitti | TLE: more precisely, the cron jobs will build them automatically from Launchpad and upload into the test PPA | 10:46 |
pitti | TLE: and from there I'll copy them to -proposed at the agreed dates | 10:46 |
TLE | All right, but you are in some way informed when the builds are done or something, so you don't need much time to do the uploads | 10:48 |
TLE | I just don't want to set to tight deadlines for us | 10:49 |
TLE | I mean to copy them from the ppa to -proposed | 10:50 |
TLE | sorry if I'm a little dense today, I just want to get it right | 10:51 |
pitti | TLE: the point where I need to do manual action is to issue the copy from PPA to -proposed; the rest happens automatically | 10:56 |
pitti | I'm not notified when all the builds are finished, though | 10:56 |
pitti | one can find out by looking at https://launchpad.net/builders | 10:56 |

hallyn | bdrung: yes, that's the explanation by upstream on why they won't take it | 13:29 |
DktrKranz | stgraber: most of the code is portable (C++), but it also has a per-architecture portion of code written in assembly, which requires soneone to write it | 13:29 |
DktrKranz | someone, even | 13:30 |
hallyn | bdrung: and we really don't want to have patches which were rejected by upstream. we'd *like* to follow their guidance to pursue the proper fix. Unfortunately I haven't had time yet to look into the SDL code for more background. | 13:30 |
hallyn | bdrung: if you have time, that'd be *awesome*. In fact, if in the end you can explain why SDL must be so, and why there's no other way, then we can (grudgingly) take the patch back into qemu. | 13:31 |

soren | hallyn: gvncviewer uses gtk-vnc which is What You Want To Use[tm]. I believe it supports "-via", too, just like xvncviewer. | 14:13 |
hallyn | soren: think i use tightvncviewer | 14:13 |
hallyn | and actually i don't use -vio | 14:14 |
soren | hallyn: Same deal. | 14:14 |
hallyn | via | 14:14 |
hallyn | hm, why? | 14:14 |
soren | hallyn: So you do the ssh forwarding manually? dude, you're missing out :) | 14:14 |
soren | hallyn: Lots of things are simply not supported properly in clients other than gtk-vnc. | 14:14 |
soren | raw key codes, for instance, which is a deal breaker for many use cases. | 14:15 |
hallyn | hm. allright, i'll try it sometime. but as for forwarding, doing it manually means i can just do it the same way on my n900, on my mom's windows machine, etc. | 14:15 |
hallyn | soren: in the past, i had a lot of trouble with mix-matching vnc's, and back then i just settled on xtight as something that works everywhere | 14:16 |
hallyn | i wonder whether that's been mostly addressed by now | 14:16 |
hallyn | soren: so package gtkvncviewer ? | 14:16 |
kirkland | lool: did you push your changes for qemu-kvm (0.13.0+noroms-0ubuntu3) to lp:ubuntu/qemu-kvm ? | 14:16 |
soren | hallyn: There's an interesting intersection of people working on gtk-vnc and on various virt technology. | 14:16 |
kirkland | lool: i just had an upload conflict | 14:16 |
soren | hallyn: Like danpb and aliguori. | 14:16 |
soren | hallyn: It's packaged. | 14:17 |
hallyn | yeah, but there are at least 2 that sound like it :) | 14:17 |
hallyn | gtkvncviewer and gvncviewer | 14:17 |
soren | hallyn: Both should be fine. | 14:17 |
soren | hallyn: They both use gtk-vnc. | 14:18 |
soren | hallyn: gvncviewer is just more familiar if you're used to xvncviewer. | 14:18 |

ogra_ac | stgraber, omg ... 700M build deps ? | 14:59 |
highvoltage | ogra_ac: do you perhaps have a minute to shed some insight on a classmate issue in #edubuntu? | 15:01 |
stgraber | ogra_ac: I'm guessing it build-deps on gstreamer and a few similar stuff :) Though as mentioned by DktrKranz earlier, it'll fail anyway as the code needs to be "ported" to ARM (as in, add a bit of ARM assembly in the code). | 15:02 |
stgraber | ogra_ac: they support x86 32/64bit and seem to be working on a powerpc port, maybe we can find someone willing to do the work (or at least look at it) to make it compatible with ARM | 15:03 |
ogra_ac | stgraber, assembly ??? | 15:03 |
stgraber | 14:29 < DktrKranz> stgraber: most of the code is portable (C++), but it also has a per-architecture portion of code written in assembly, which requires soneone to write it | 15:04 |
stgraber | apparently, yes ... | 15:04 |
ogra_ac | bah | 15:04 |
ogra_ac | there should really be no assembly | 15:05 |
stgraber | I agree :) I'm guessing it's meant for performance optimization or whatever. | 15:06 |

ogra_ac | stgraber, so there isnt really any point in me doing a testbuild | 15:12 |
stgraber | ogra_ac: I'd guess it's simply going to fail on the ASM part. I haven't looked at the code but based on DktrKranz's comment earlier, I wouldn't think it's going to fallback to "less efficient" c++ code | 15:12 |

pitti | hello tkamppeter, how are you? (no problem, it's not that urgent) | 16:01 |
dholbach | thanks pitti | 16:01 |
pitti | tkamppeter: I disabled cupshelpers from normal jockey operation for now, since printer drivers are almost always installed via s-c-p | 16:01 |
tkamppeter | pitti, cupshelpers.getDevices() takes 15 seconds like "lpinfo -v" does as CUPS waits 15 sec for answers of network and Bluetooth printers. | 16:02 |
pitti | tkamppeter: ah, that explains it | 16:02 |
tkamppeter | pitti, Jockey does not actually need to look for printers. Local printers are handled via UDEV when plugged or via CUPS startup during boot. | 16:03 |
pitti | tkamppeter: that's what I thought | 16:03 |
pitti | tkamppeter: ok, thanks for confirming | 16:03 |
tkamppeter | Remote printers printers should not be set up non-interactively. One usually sets them up on one or two boxes and then one activates CUPS browsing. Therefore these printers should only get set up on explicit request by the user (via s-c-p). | 16:05 |
tkamppeter | So for printers Jockey should only get called for the actual driver download for an already detected printer, not for finding the printers. | 16:06 |
pitti | right | 16:06 |

wendar | jdstrand: the comments on socially encouraging good security behavior by preventing anonymous contributions are an important addition too, thanks! | 21:45 |
wendar | jdstrand: at the moment we require a PPA, which is a certain level of "verification" of a real human. and in the future it looks like we'll be integrating ARB with our commercial signup process, which is another level of verification | 21:46 |
wendar | jdstrand: we may not charge a dollar for submitting an application, but we may very well take financial information from some developers, if they want to accept donations for their free software | 21:47 |
jdstrand | wendar: regarding 'anonymous contributions'-- thank mdeslaur (but we all agree :) | 21:47 |
jdstrand | wendar: it doesn't have to be a dollar-- it could be $.01. the idea is that it makes it harder to be anonymous (unless you are being seriously criminal) | 21:48 |
jdstrand | wendar: but all the PPA business was that we don't want their software changing the upgrade system, etc | 21:49 |
jdstrand | well, you probably ment that the PPA is one deterrent | 21:49 |

cjwatson | smoser: no | 21:52 |
wendar | jdstrand: and, on PPAs, yes, meant the fact that they have to set up account with valid email and sign the code of conduct, etc, etc, is a beginning of social pressure for good behavior | 21:53 |
jdstrand | wendar: we discussed that and recognize it is the beginning, but that alone is a pretty low barrier in our opinion | 21:54 |

ebroder | kees: Does that mean that I'll be able to detect if the BIOS disabled HW virt without loading the kvm modules? Because that would be awesome | 23:19 |
kees | ebroder: yes, I think so. As I understand it, the kvm modules are just checking a specific MSR. | 23:19 |

RoAkSoAx | kirkland: http://www.threedrunkensysadsonthe.net/2010/07/installing-cobbler-on-ubuntu (Seems unaccessible for me, for now) | 23:34 |
RoAkSoAx | kirkland: I read it like couple weeks ago or so | 23:36 |
kees | ebroder: when svm is disabled in the BIOS, does it still show up in /proc/cpuinfo? | 23:38 |
ebroder | kees: Not sure | 23:39 |
kees | kirkland: ? | 23:39 |
ebroder | kees: vmx definitely does | 23:39 |
kirkland | kees: huh? | 23:39 |
kirkland | kees: oh, yes, it does | 23:39 |
kees | ah, yeah, looking at kvm-ok, it does. okay | 23:39 |
kirkland | kees: see the current logic in kvm-ok | 23:40 |
kirkland | kees: that logic is correct | 23:40 |
ebroder | kees: I take it you're writing the code at this point so I shouldn't? | 23:40 |
kees | ebroder: I think I'm close. I just need hw to test with | 23:48 |
kees | ebroder: I'll continue in a bit | 23:48 |
ebroder | kees: I have Intel hw I can reboot repeatedly if that helps, although I don't think I can test any of the trusted boot stuff | 23:49 |
