ScottKJust to pick one trivial example, debdonf doesn't currently support 2.7.00:00
ScottKThat one would be nice to fix before you change the default.00:00
cjwatsonI can do that right now if you want00:01
cjwatsonthough there's a bit of an issue that it fails to build due to a missing MIR00:01
ScottKSure, but it's just an example of how it's not nearly time to switch.00:01
cjwatsonif somebody would like to respond to bug 681000 ...00:01
ubot4`Launchpad bug 681000 in qt4-perl (Ubuntu) "[MIR] qt4-perl (affects: 1) (heat: 505)" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/68100000:01
ScottKI've got other work I'd planned for tonight than arguing for at least a rudimentary level of preparation before switching Python defaults.00:03
cjwatsonI really don't mind, I just want to get moving.  Can we enable 2.7 support tomorrow and aim for switching the default in time for Alpha 2?00:06
dokoI'm open for suggestions to delay such a switch for a fixed amount of time if I know that people do work on solutions.  But in the current state of development I do accept a certain breakage which can be fixed within days00:06
ScottK2.7 support is already enabled.00:06
dokoI'll upload ~350 rebuilds within the next hour00:07
cjwatsondoko: skaet asked to wait for tomorrow00:07
cjwatsonyou agreed, I thought00:07
dokoahh, ok00:07
cjwatsoner, by tomorrow I mean after the release meeting00:07
dokocjwatson: that was with 2.7 as the default, not just adding rebuilds to get support for 2.7. this won't break anything. either the builds succeeds, or not00:09
ScottKcjwatson: I agree that rebuilding with 2.6 default and 2.7 support is safe and sane.00:11
ScottKsupport/supported00:12
cjwatsondoko: no cases where installability might temporarily suffer due to multi-binary packages with Architecture: all and any combined?00:13
cjwatsonthe reason skaet was asking for a bit of a delay was that some images unexpectedly slipped from alpha-1 and she was contemplating the possibility of releasing them late00:14
cjwatsonspeaking of which, having another go at building ubuntu-netbook/armel now ...00:14
dokocjwatson: afaik, no. pending build failures on some architectures introduced by the toolchain00:14
dokook, I'll wait on this one00:15
cjwatsonwe can probably cope with rebuilds that more-or-less-provably won't cause CD build failures00:16
dokothe thing is that CD sizes will increase, and I cannot tell easily which universe package may succeed to build without having the main rebuilds in the archive00:17
cjwatsonwe're already oversized and not caring about it for alpha-100:19
dokoI'll just fire up a handful of builds which are known to be built first, I'll delay anything else for later00:20

barrysorry, i was at dinner.  "doing the archive test rebuild with python 2.7 as default" (and getting the results of that before switching to 2.7 as default permanently) was what i meant by "do it"01:05
skaet_just back from dinner as well.   Thanks cjwatson.  doko would like to see if we can get an armel  image, before things go into high churn mode.01:25
* skaet_ just missed doko it appears.01:26
skaet_bjf, I think I've synched the links up with the master schedule now.  Please let me know if you find others,  I'm collecting a list ;)01:37
bjfskaet_, cool, have a good night01:51
skaet_thanks bjf,  you too01:51

cjwatsonogra,GrueMaster: does http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-netbook/daily-preinstalled/20101203/ work?10:04
cjwatsonI built that last night just before going to bed10:04
rsalvetiit should, but I'm downloading it to test10:51
cjwatsonif it does, we can potentially release it and you can have an alpha-1 after all10:53
rsalveticool, just writing it at the sd card and will report it back in some minutes10:56
rsalveticjwatson: installed fine here, and I'm now at the efl interface11:29
rsalvetiworking nicely11:29
rsalvetiogra: the audio worked fine, but just after the second reboot (the first boot, after finishing the installer didn't recognize the sound card)11:29
rsalveticjwatson: but I believe we can release it as a-111:30
ScottKara: Do you take care of updating ISO test procedures for iso.qa.ubuntu.com?11:43
=== doko_ is now known as doko
pittiare we going to have a release meeting today?13:14
skaet_pitti,  yes14:49
skaet_There's an agenda up, but probably more important at this stage is to get some understanding of how python2.7 transition is going to happen, and make sure everyone has chance to comment.14:52
pittiskaet_: *nod*14:54
cjwatsonskaet_: OK, sounds like we can release that new netbook armel image for alpha-1, if you're OK with that.  It looks like I forgot to put it on the tracker - I've done that now so that publish-image-set can see it15:29
cjwatsonskaet_: want me to just push it out now?15:29
ogra_acoh, that would be cool15:29
ogra_acit looks very good15:29
skaet_ogra_ac,  great.15:36
skaet_cjwatson, go ahead and push it15:36
skaet_I'll go in and update the technical overview so it has reference to it again.15:36
skaet_ogra_ac, any overview information and things to watch out for that should be added?15:37
cjwatsonmkdir: cannot create directory `/srv/cdimage.ubuntu.com/www/full/ubuntu-netbook/releases/natty/alpha-1': No space left on device15:39
cjwatsonoh FFS15:39
ogra_acnothing, it seems to behave identical to the maverick release (even better in some areas)15:39
ogra_aci havent seen any issues yet15:39
* cjwatson nukes the www.prev backup tree15:39
* ScottK makes a note of that acronym for future use.15:39
ogra_acyou mean "FFS (full free software)" ?15:40
ogra_ac:)15:40
* skaet_ needs to figure out that acronym... 15:40
pittiskaet_: for f***'s sake15:40
skaet_pitti, lol.   thanks!15:41
pittiskaet_: I know, not exactly the classical British understatement :)15:41
cjwatsonthat's OK, I'm not British ;-)15:42
cjwatson(well, I am.  kind of.  but.)15:42
cjwatsonok, I've pushed that image out now15:42
rsalvetiawesome, thanks a lot :-)15:43
cjwatsonis there any reason to consider the archive still semi-closed at this point?15:43
cjwatson(http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-netbook/releases/natty/alpha-1/, when it's finished mirroring)15:43
pitticjwatson: oh, do we?15:43
cjwatsonwell, I was avoiding syncs and the like in case we needed to respin late images.  but I think that's pretty unlikely at this point, right?15:44
pittiI saw the "released" and threw a lot of rebuilds against the archive (mostly for space reduction, but also some bug fixes)15:44
ScottKcjwatson: It would, however, to be nice to avoid the now almost traditional post-milestone that breaks the archive just as most everyone who could do something about it vanishes for the weekend.15:44
cjwatsonyeah, keeping the archive semi-closed is more or less impossible :)15:44
pittiand #u-devel topic said "open", so sorry if that was premature15:44
ScottKpost-milestone upload ...15:44
cjwatsonhttp://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/testing/natty_probs.html is looking basically no worse than just before the alpha15:46
GrueMastercjwatson: I am just now waking up, and I have a meeting downtown in an hour, so I won't be able to do any testing on the image until later today.15:49
cjwatsonGrueMaster: rsalveti has run it through and declared it OK, so I released it15:49
cjwatson(on top of the ad-hoc testing from yesterday)15:49
apwskaet_, i assume the milestone freeze came off today ?18:45
ScottKIt did18:46
apwScottK, thanks18:49
