kklimondahmm, interesting - I have a patch in the maverick package that enables launchpad-integration01:50
kklimondait doesn't add any additional CFLAGS to the Makefile, and it worked fine during maverick development01:51
kklimondabut now, that I try to make an SRU compilation fails - it can't find <launchpad-integration.h>01:51

JackyAlcineI doubt it, linuxfreaker.05:50
JackyAlcineMaybe 2.6.36 but not 2.6.3705:50
micahg2.6.37 is already in natty05:50
linuxfreaker2.6.37-rc4 is there in natty, 2.6.37 just released yesterday05:54

linuxfreakerSo does it mean that Alpha2 will have 2.6.37 GA kernel05:57
StevenKIt's in about 3 weeks, but yes05:59
StevenKWell, Ubuntu doesn't use kernel.org kernels, but it will be based on 2.6.37 final06:00

cjwatsonmvo_: can you get a -v log from grub-probe?10:44

pitticjwatson: is not having a Replaces: to go with the Conflicts: intented?12:09
cjwatsonhmm, I suspect there were no overlapping files upstream12:10
cjwatsonlet me adjust that before you process it12:11
pitti'k12:11
pitticjwatson: there are a couple of bashisms in config and postinst; aside from that conflicts: it looks fine to me12:12
cjwatsonlooks like I have to think a bit about how to handle console-setup-tty12:12

cjwatsonright, I think console-setup-tty simply belongs in console-setup, not k-c12:15
cjwatsonand the initramfs stuff too.  (keyboard-configuration basically exists to be a lighter dependency for X ...)12:17
pittiso that you can have a downsized system with just X, and no VT font config and the like?12:18
cjwatsonoh, wait, they go in keyboard-configuration because they're meant to be shared with console-setup-mini (which Ubuntu doesn't really use but nevertheless if we build it we should make it work)12:21

pitticjwatson: ok; feel free to NEW it yourself then12:25
pittiI can imagine how it'll look like :)12:25
mok0I am puzzled that the debian policy says that the get-orig-source rule should leave the tarball in the current directory. When run from $topdir, it is then necessary to manually move the tarball one notch up12:27
cjwatsonpitti: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-dev/console-setup/ubuntu/revision/16512:28
cjwatsonmok0: it also says "This target may be invoked in any directory", so I think the idea is that you *call* it from one level up12:29
tumbleweedcjwatson: practically that invoking from any directory bit is hard to implement (if you are going to use dpkg-parsechangelog to determine the version)12:29
tumbleweedI've always ignored it12:30
mok0cjwatson: yes... but don't the tools always run from $topdir?12:30
apwcjwatson, i assume seeds do not get turned into packages ?12:30
mok0cjwatson: I can see that leaving files in $cwd is the most logical behaviour though12:30
cjwatsonmok0: get-orig-source is run by hand though, not via "the tools"12:30
mok0cjwatson: afaik bzr-buildpackage tries to run it12:31
cjwatsonheh, its problem then :)12:31
tumbleweedyeah, it runs it in the root of the package12:31
cjwatsonthat seems like a bug on the face of it12:31
cjwatsontumbleweed: get-orig-source doesn't need dpkg-parsechangelog information12:31
cjwatsonapw: some seeds do.  what do you mean?12:32
tumbleweedcjwatson: how do you know which versino to download then (unless you change it on every upstream release)12:32
mok0I am not sure though bzr-buildpackage might move it to its build-area12:32
apwcjwatson, oh i was looking at platform.natty, to see what happened to it after it was changed12:32
cjwatsontumbleweed: "the most recent version"12:32
apwcjwatson, and it doesn't seem to have releases or tags, or indeed a changelog12:33
tumbleweedhmm, that is a point, still that's not what one normally wants12:33
cjwatsonapw: phone, brb12:34
apwanyone seen 'different serializers' errors when pushing a new branch to launchpad ?12:41
=== dholbach_ is now known as dholbach
cjwatsonapw: some packages use the seeds to generate dependencies and the like, for example the ubuntu-meta source package12:47
cjwatsonapw: the changelog is 'bzr log'12:47
apwcjwatson, so used in consumer packages, but the branch itself is just a repo12:48
cjwatsoncorrect12:49
apwcjwatson, looking at platform.natty there are a lot of arm kernels listed which i don't believe exist12:49
apw * Kernel-Version: 2.6.32-410-dove 2.6.37-12-omap 2.6.35-1101-omap4 2.6.31-800-st1-5 2.6.37-11-iop32x 2.6.37-10-ixp4xx 2.6.37-11-orion5x 2.6.37-12-versatile12:49
apwixp4xx and orion5x particularly i am wondering about there12:50
ograyeah, we need to clean that up at some point12:50
cjwatsonit doesn't cause a problem though12:50
ograixp is a leftover from jaunty12:50
cjwatsoniop32x as well12:50
ograour first arm images were for nslu212:51
ograyep12:51
cjwatsonapw: BTW it's best to change those entries only in sync with a debian-installer upload12:52
cjwatsonI usually just use sed12:52
cjwatsonapw: if you want to do that in an hour's time (once the kernel's in the archive) by way of practice, I can merge/sponsor12:53
apwcjwatson, yeah i've been doing the d-i changes too (https://code.launchpad.net/~apw/debian-installer/kernel-update) for the practice12:53

cjwatsonsed -i 's/2.6.37-11/2.6.37-12/g' *installer*12:54

pittiin these cases I need to kill and manually restart it; also, there are other cases where the ddeb-retriever is dropping packages :-(16:56
pittii. e. it's possible that it just fell through the cracks16:56
* pitti really wants soyuz ddeb support *sigh*16:56
loolpitti: How does one usually go with such issues?  ping you?  rt ticket?16:57
pittilool: right, so it built around christmas16:57
pittilool: ping me16:57
pittilool: the buildds keep ddebs for 7 days16:57
pittilool: so if a ddeb doesn't appear after build, I can rescue it within a week16:58
pittibut then it's gone :-/16:58
loolI see16:58
loolpitti: Can you confirm that what happened was that the ddeb retriever was borken?16:58
pittino, I can't16:58
loolpitti: Maybe we should send a weekly summary of ddeb copied to ddebs.u.c to some list of people so that we can react if it's empty?16:58
pitti"nothing last as long as a makeshift"16:59
pitti(which ddeb-retriever is)16:59
looleh16:59
pittiwgrant: ^ OOI, is there an update for this? I thought soyuz got ddeb support ages ago, and it's 90% there?16:59
pittilool: http://ddebs.ubuntu.com/pool/main/l/linux/ does have armel ddebs, so it's not a general problem with the hack for linux (earlier releases had broken package names) or armel17:02
pittilool: so I'm afraid the only practical solution right now is to upload a rebuild, and then I watch what happens in the retriever17:03
pittilool: I guess you want to update to .37 final anyway?17:03
loolpitti: Ok17:06
loolpitti: We will have other uploads, I'll try to think of pinging when it happens  :-)17:07
pittilool: merci17:07
loolpitti: i'll check with jcrigby to arrange that17:07
loolpitti: thanks to /you/!17:07
pittilool: ah, now that macquarie is on lucid, I could even re-enable my timeout patch, to avoid the endless hangs17:10
pittihardy's python didn't support that yet17:11

pittitkamppeter: hah! I just got Jockey to install the Epson printer driver from the op.o repository, with all the GPG fingerprint and trusted repository checking \o/17:22
superm1pitti, hi. did you have thoughts about how you were planning on blocking nvidia and fglrx driver being offered in the live environment?  I was hoping there will be a way to control this.  at least for my purposes i'd like to have a way to make sure all drivers can still be offered in some fashion17:23
pittisuperm1: I was going to add a two-liner to both handlers to check for /rofs/, and fail if it exists17:24
pittisuperm1: so that you can still install wl, etc.17:24
pittiI think ev heroically fixed that initramfs update problem, so that should work again17:24
pittisuperm1: what do you mean with "control"?17:25
superm1pitti, well for my purposes i'd still like to offer them as potential targets when i run jockey during post install17:25
pittisuperm1: there might also be a more elegant way with putting an empty modalias override file into /usr/share/jockey/modaliases/ for fglrx and nvidia in casper17:25
pittisuperm1: what is "post install" in your case?17:26
superm1pitti, but aren't they both now controlled by the debian package header for modaliases not the modaliases file?17:26
pittisuperm1: wouldn't you call that in chroot /target ?17:26
pittisuperm1: they are, but the modaliases/ dir is still supported17:26
superm1pitti, so a blank file takes precendence?17:27
pittisuperm1: you'd need to add a "reset nvidia" line to it to purge the ones collected from modinfo and the package headers17:27
superm1oh but you're right that I do call the backend and jockey text in the chroot, so it is likely a moot point17:27
superm1there would be no /rofs in that chroot17:27
pittisuperm1: I don't know whether I got the ordering of those right, but I can ensure that this works17:27
pittisuperm1: my thought17:27
elifHi, how kickstart works ? it is translated to a preseed file ? what package source should I look for ?17:28
pittisuperm1: we want to disable it because there's usually too little RAM to download all the pacakges, build and install them17:28
superm1pitti, right, makes sense to me.  then no worries from my side :)17:28
pittisuperm1: in /target/ that's not a problem of course, and it should just work17:28
pittisuperm1: ok, cool ;)17:28

ubottuUbuntu bug 67235 in totem (Ubuntu) "thumbnailer crashes on unfinished avi's or .oggs" [Medium,Invalid]17:31
ebroderpitti, superm1: there's no point in installing new X drivers in an actual live cd environment, since there's no persistance. but if you do a usb-creator install with persistance, then it does make sense17:42
ebroderand hopefully you have enough disk space in the persistance file and RAM to support doing that17:42
superm1you'd need to reboot though for that to even work most likely17:42
ebroderso maybe the test should be more "if os.path.exists(/rofs") and 'persistant' not in open('17:42
ebrodererr... os.path.exists('/rofs') and 'persistant' not in open('/proc/cmdline').read()17:43
superm1i doubt you'd be able to stop X, unload nouveau/radeon, load nvidia/fglrx safely17:43
ebrodersuperm1: rebooting is fine. there's code to pull the new initrd out of the aufs filesystem into /cdrom, so that should all work17:43

cjwatsonsm: not sure I understand your question18:16
smlaunchpad-janitor posted on the bug page when the fix arrived in those repos/pools/releases, but not when it arrived in maverick-updates18:17
cjwatsonactually, it posted when it arrived in -updates18:18
cjwatsonit's just that the changelog was written when it was uploaded to -proposed, so says "maverick-proposed"18:18
cjwatsonbut that's misleading18:18
