[03:33] <smoser> andreserl, yes, possible.
[03:34] <smoser> andreserl, when it boots, you get a grub console at which you can interupt it and select a different entry. then provide that entry with a "seed" (url where to find its user-data and meta-data) files.
[03:34] <smoser> but it is manual to stop that boot process. you could recreate the floppy and replace the one bundled with one of your own.
[04:33] <andreserl> smoser: so to make it automatic, I'd need to create a custom floppy then. thanks for the info
[04:34] <smoser> yeah. or modify the image (mount loopback)
[04:34] <smoser> but you can create the custom floppy without root
[04:38] <andreserl> smoser: I think that the easiest would be to provide a floppy for my case. I'll ping you when I get to that point :)
[04:40] <smoser> andreserl, the floppy is made by http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-on-ec2/vmbuilder/automated-ec2-builds/view/head:/mk-nocloud-bootdisk
[04:41] <smoser> just hack the first menu entry with a 'seedfrom' location like: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEC/Images

[14:45] <Warlock072> hey guys
[14:45] <cjwatson> kklimonda: requiring the name to be changed is fine (DFSG#4), but I'm not sure whether the rest of it is essentially an extension to the name-change requirement or is separate (in particular surely any package of Transmission is a derived work of Transmission, so in practice wouldn't this mean it'd have to be iceweasel-ified?).

[14:48] <Warlock072> the makes ait more sense

[17:49] <ari-tczew> are we going to get perl 5.12 and openssl 1.0 in Ubuntu 11.10 ?
[17:50] <seb128> seems leftovers on upgrade or something
[17:50] <kenvandine> seb128, no, it actually gets put there on upgrade
[17:50] <SpamapS> ari-tczew: assuming squeeze releases by then, I'd say yes. Otherwise, tough to get too far out of sync w/ debian on those pieces.
[17:50] <kenvandine> we first saw it when py2.7 was first added
[17:51] <seb128> kenvandine, ok, weird, I didn't get that issue
[17:51] <ari-tczew> SpamapS: I can imagine bilion rebuilds and transitions.
[17:51] <kenvandine> well, i think it might be limited to people that upgraded at a certain time
[17:51] <kenvandine> during the transition/dual install
[17:51] <micahg> squeeze release is tentatively 1st week of Feb
[17:51] <SpamapS> micahg: I did see that the RC bug list has gotten rather small
[17:52] <SpamapS> tho I'm pretty sure there's a bug in squeeze's libdbi
[17:52] <kenvandine> seb128, i seem to recall not hitting that problem when i upgraded my VMs either... but my laptop that gets updated daily did

[17:53] <superm1> apw, a bunch of patches got dropped when it was rebased to upstream.  mjg59 didn't like some of them and didn't accept them
[17:54] <superm1> it was his view that they should be fixed in the BIOS, which wasn't going to happen after the platforms launched.
[17:54] <apw> superm1, a problem indeed
[17:55] <kees> jdong: security would be fine for that. it's pretty minor, so I wouldn't cry if it was done as an SRU too.
[17:55] <superm1> keng-yu has hit the same problem with some recent patches that he wanted to submit that mjg59 won't take on the same basis
[17:58] <jdong> kees: okay. I think I'll recommend that it be done as a security update then.
[17:58] <kees> jdong: cool by me. once there are tested debdiffs, we can publish it
[18:00] <apw> superm1, a difficulty indeed, i can see both sides, having inviolate bios after releaase does make the world a hard place
[18:03] <debfx> jdong: I wonder if it would be a good idea to add a NEWS.Debian file saying that one should check the permissions of mumble-server.ini
[18:04] <jdong> debfx: my experience honestly is that 90% of sysadmins don't go around chasing those obscure files in /usr/share/doc... The permissions should be automatically corrected during the update, and a USN should go out about it so admins know that SQL passwords coudl've been read by local users
[18:07] <debfx> jdong: well apt-listchanges displays NEWS files if it's installed :)

[19:42] <Daviey> sconklin, Okay, no problem - thanks anyway.
[19:42] <SpamapS> doko_: basically we need telinit u to wait for init to actually restart itself.
[19:42] <barry> rickspencer3: what's the detail with the daily-journal package? is that in natty?
[19:42] <sconklin> I'm sorry, I feel like I've done some false advertising
[19:43] <Daviey> sconklin, heh, don't feel bad.  What is the aspect of it that makes you run for the hills?
[19:44] <sconklin> I don't know what that is, or how to do whatever is required. It looks like maybe a request to merge something, but I don't use bzr and wouldn't know how to do it
[19:44] <Daviey> sconklin, It's essentially a posh debdiff.
[19:45] <Daviey> 'merge' in the sense of upload.. slight miss use of terminology. ho hum

[20:27] <vladsharp> how long do ppa signing keys take to generate?
[20:28] <vladsharp> is it normal for the key to have an id on the web page but actually not be available on the ubuntu keyserver?
[20:28] <doko_> SpamapS: no rush on this, just wanted to try to get the fix before the sru release
[20:28] <SpamapS> doko_: there's another libc6 update?
[20:28] <SpamapS> :(
[20:31] <doko_> SpamapS: no just the str* fix which I did include
[20:32] <SpamapS> doko_: every time we update upstart or libc6 without doing this particular update, we are risking more rootfs corruptions. :(

[21:42] <Laney> janimo: cheers for the haskell rebuilds (have you seen the installability graphs?)
[21:42] <andreoli> hi, I am trying to read PPA stats through a "ppastats.py" script found here: http://www.webupd8.org/2010/12/launchpad-finally-gets-ppa-usage-stats.html . I only get zeroes. Are the PPA stats active?
[21:42] <Laney> andreoli: PPA questions should be in #launchpad
[21:42] <andreoli> thx sorry
[21:43] <Laney> np
[21:43] <janimo> Laney, np. I did not initially intend to do all of them - had no idea there's an actual graph, just started from a few FTBFS apps. But luvkily caught on early that there are dependencies
[21:43] <Laney> http://orangesquash.org.uk/~laney/haskell-installability/i386.png if you want to do some more
[21:43] <janimo> Laney, if you have apointer to the graph I can look at it, it can still help
[21:43] <Laney> :-)
[21:44] <janimo> Laney, but at least I have a script for creating the updted packages, so was not all drudgework
[21:45] <janimo> Laney, I mostly went depth first until the deps were ghc6 internal only, and uploaded those, and then the next layer and so on
[21:45] <Laney> yeah, that's how you use the graph
[21:45] <Laney> start at the root and work outwards until it is all green
[21:46] <janimo> Laney, one issue I ran into is haskeline ntot building becasue of utf8-string . It should be part of ghc6 - that isa why the standalone pkg was removed after lucid - but the setup script does not find it
[21:47] <janimo> Laney, all of these need to be rebuild after a new GHC build??!
[21:47] <janimo> sounds interesting :)
[21:54] <Laney> janimo: hmm, yes I don't see that package
[21:54] <Laney> will investigate
[21:54] <Laney> and yeah sometimes the amount of rebuilds is large, luckily it's mostly automatable though
[21:55] <janimo> Laney, does it need a rebuild after each build of ghc6 or only if the ghc version changes?
[21:55] <Laney> if the ABI changes
[21:55] <janimo> so those magic numbers are digests of the ABI?
[21:55] <Laney> right
[21:56] <janimo> ok, good to know it is not randomly generated ID on each rebuild :D
=== dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk
[21:56] <Laney> it's the best way we found to track the unstable ABI
[21:58] <janimo> Laney, similar to what the kernel does for modules I guess
[21:59] <Laney> I suspect the kernel has a rather better ABI guarantee ;)
[21:59] <Laney> but yes, that idea
[22:02] <doko_> mterry: can't decide on twm, I'm biased
[22:03] <RoAkSoAx> Anyone experiencing issues similar to "E: Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/h/heartbeat/libheartbeat2_3.0.4-1ubuntu1_amd64.deb: Size mismatch"  in pbuilders?
[22:11] <mterry> doko_, :)  ah, I assigned because looked like you had been involved in the discussion.  biased?  did you work on it, or you just want it?
[22:12] <micahg> RoAkSoAx: did you try updating again?
[22:13] <doko_> mterry: I just want it because of the excessive dependencies on metacity
[22:13] <doko_> mterry: but I don't know if kees would agree to maintain an extra window manager in main
[22:15] <Laney> janimo: looks like GHC indeed stopped providing utf8-string, so we should bring that (source) package back
[22:15] <Laney> FYI, if you want to do that. Otherwise I'll get to it soon, probably at the weekend.
[22:15] <Laney> I can commit to Debian if you want too.
[22:16] <mterry> doko_, well reassign if ya like  :)
[22:16] <RoAkSoAx> micahg: like 10 times
[22:16] <RoAkSoAx> micahg: I guess it is just the archive server that pbuilder is using or something
[22:16] <janimo> Laney, ok IIRC I saw today on Debian Haskell archives that they were not sure about dropping that
[22:17] <janimo> But they did apparently
[22:17] <Laney> do you know in which thread?
[22:17] <janimo> there was een talk of maybe needing to bring it back because of haskeline :)
[22:18] <Laney> oh, at the time it was the right thing to do
[22:18] <Laney> but it looks like GHC itself has stopped supplying the library
[22:18] <janimo> Laney , no bu tI htink you posted in it too, I just googled today but cannot remember
[22:18] <janimo> so ghc6 picked it up for a release then dropped it again?

[23:41] <ari-tczew> unfortunately, sponsors queue is not good this year... not good patch pilots

[23:43] <ari-tczew> 3rd*
[23:43] <micahg> ari-tczew: it's still doing much better than last year and what ebrober said
[23:43] <micahg> ari-tczew: the patch pilots were at a developer sprint last week
[23:43] <micahg> but I think they were still sponsoring
[23:44] <micahg> http://reports.qa.ubuntu.com/reports/sponsoring-stats/ shows lots of work done
[23:44] <ebroder> yeah, and if you look at the graphs, it's only been climbing since Christmas Eve
[23:45] <ari-tczew> anyway, I wish that sponsors queue will be clean until Feature Freeze
[23:46] <ebroder> we're still *well* below where we were after UDS
