hyperairacbot_: how did you check?07:40
acbot_hyperair netstat with the plugin on/off shows that it makes the connection when plugin is on and not when plugin is off07:41

I'd like to mention that I had no intention of actually processing kernel SRUs until the process was defined (like you did in your wiki change) and the AAs were told they could do so via an ubuntu-sru ACK.

jdstrandcjwatson: am I remembering correctly that you have scripted much of the autosyncs so NEW processing is more or less ubuntu deltas in this part of the cycle?16:37
cjwatsonjdstrand: mostly, if I'm understanding your question correctly16:40
jdstrandcjwatson: I'll take that as a 'yes' for now and ask if I have any other questions later. While I'm processing NEW now, there is quite a backlog so I won't hit any new NEW stuff for some time anyway16:42
cjwatsondoko: gcj-4.4 sync fails because it clashes with libgcj-doc which is now from gcj-4.5.  perhaps we need an Ubuntu upload of gcj-4.4 which stops producing that package?16:42
dokocjwatson: will do, thanks for the notice16:43
cjwatson(actually, the current version in Ubuntu doesn't build libgcj-doc, I guess that changed between then and the current version in unstable - but at any rate the delta means we need an *ubuntu* version, I think)16:44
cjwatsonI sync-blacklisted it in the meantime16:44
pittidoko: python2.7 and langpacks -- that should keep the buildds warm over the long cold weekend :-P16:47

dokopitti: btw, are changelogs only removed for packages on the cd?16:47
pittidoko: no, for all packages16:48
dokoI still think this is bad ...16:48
pittidoko: the Debian changelogs are truncated, not removed, btw16:48
dokoright, but no chance to look at upstream changelogs16:49
pittiI know, but it's a change that hurts users least; I'm always open for other suggestions what to take off the CDs16:49
dokopitti: easy: fix packaging to include upstream changelogs in every binary package, and move upstream changelogs in -dev packages16:50
pittiand remove them if there isn't a -dev?16:51
pittiwell, we can certainly not strip them from -dev16:51

jdstrandsbeattie: yeah, me other. let's coordinate in the meeting17:18
pittidoko: actually, what's the source for sqlite2? I only see libdbd-sqlite2-perl17:18

micahgpitti: no, AFAICT it wasn't rejected, you just commented please upload even though I uploaded17:19

dokopitti: I still see python-pysqlite1.1, python-pysqlite217:19

pittidoko: python-pysqlite1.1 seems easy, I don't see rdepends17:20
pittidoko: want me to remove it right away?17:20
pitti(and blacklist)17:20
pittidoko: but it depends on libsqlite3-0, so it basically just seems to be an adapter for an old API17:21
dokopitti: please do17:21
dokopitti: yes, we had this discussion before lucid too, and that we had to keep it for compatibility. but even now?17:22
pittiI don't see a reason to keep it; python has it built in17:22
pittidoko: python-pysqlite1.1 killed; I'd like to blacklist it, but it seems someone else (cjwatson?) is editing blacklist.txt17:24
cjwatsonno longer, go ahead17:24
pittidoko: python-pysqlite2 still has a ton of rdepends, though, so I can't remove it right away17:25
pitticjwatson: thanks, done17:26
dokopitti: aren't these just alternatives?17:26
pittiI grabbed a random example, python-axiom17:26
pittipython-turbogears2 has an alternative-less recommends17:27

smoserwondering if anyone has suggestions...19:29
smoseri've got a partition image (uec-images.ubuntu.com) and want to put that inside a disk image19:30
ebroderAs in you want that image to become a partition on another image?19:30
smoserand then get grub-pc written into the mbr so that it will load (/boot/grub/core.img and the lot already exist inside the image)19:30
smoserebroder, yes.19:30
smoserreally i just need to put (i think) like 2 512 byte blocks in front, one for MBR and one for partition header19:31
smoser(i think)19:31
ebrodersmoser: Create the second disk image (make sure it's big enough). losetup --show --find whole_disk.img; fdisk /dev/loop0; kpartx -a /dev/loop0; dd if=partition.img of=/dev/mapper/loop0p119:31
ebroderRoughly19:31
smoserand what about grub?19:32
ebroderI did a writeup for GRUB legacy at <http://ebroder.net/2009/08/04/installing-grub-onto-a-disk-image/>. There's some awesome device-mapper hackery involved. Don't know if it works with GRUB 2, but I bet it would19:33
ebroderHmm,, actually there's a comment I had forgotten about that says it didn't work with GRUB 2 from squeeze, so I'm not sure19:36
lifelesskees: hows your script looking now ?19:36
smoserwell, i dont need to actually run grub-install i dont think19:36
smoseras that is already run inside the image (i've done that hackery). i just need to get grub2 into mbr19:37
ebrodersmoser: Hmm, is that just /boot/grub/boot.img or something?19:37
smoseri dont know.l...19:38
ebroderLooks like boot.img isn't quite the same as my MBR19:39
