micahghi pitti, I wanted to ask about Thunderbird for natty alpha 2, would it be better to have it be updated to 3.1.8 on arm, but w/out Breakpad enabled (submit crashes to Mozilla) (not parity with i386/amd64) or leave it at 3.1.7?  There might be the other option of actually fixing breakpad, but idk if that can happen before alpha 207:44
pittimicahg: my gut feeling is to update without breakpad, but ogra_'s or persia's opinion here is more important07:51

ogra_mvo, any chance that we get a working update-manager soon so we can build non x86 images again ?09:33
ogra_(why is it depending on fglrx-modaliases ?)09:33
janimomicahg, so mozilla will  not report via apport? How do apport and breakpad get along?09:37

janimook09:37
micahgjanimo: you should still be able to use ubuntu-bug though to report non-crashes09:38
janimomicahg, does the mozilla team upstream patches (I am thinking of the arm ones in particular)?09:38
micahgjanimo: we should be :)09:38
janimomicahg, ok. There's no easy way I know of - short of looking at he buglist and upstream resources - what the status of various packages is wrt upstreaming09:39
micahgjanimo: generally I think we do, occasionally one slips through the cracks09:40

jelmerjanimo: how do you do it for non-UDD sponsoring ?14:34
janimojelmer, the reason it was a bit slow for me is that I did not really do much sponsoring before14:34
janimohowever I am more familiar with 'here's a debdiff for agains the latest source' approach14:35
jelmerjanimo: you should be able to use the "Claim Review" link on the merge proposal to indicate you're processing it14:35

rickspencer3oh19:11
rickspencer3kees, ok, so I was a bit out of touch there19:12
rickspencer3I thought they were just hiding the UI where "they" was the desktop team19:12
rickspencer3removing it from the kernel is bold, indeed19:13
keesrickspencer3: right, that's mostly okay -- that's just a configurable. but to be _unable_ is a big deal, IMO.19:13
rickspencer3kees, well, I dropped a note to @u-devel and @u-desktop19:13
rickspencer3I think a proper discussion would be good19:13
cjwatsonit seems bad form to remove it from the kernel; I said as much to kernel folks at the rally ...19:14
rickspencer3kees, would you mind correcting my mistake on that thread?19:14
keesrickspencer3: cool, thanks.19:14
keescjwatson: and that desktop told us that it wouldn't be removed from the kernel. :P19:14
keesrickspencer3: yup, already added a note.19:14
keesrickspencer3: or do you mean the u-d thread?19:14
rickspencer3hmm19:14
rickspencer3the disconnect was probably due to me not connecting dots sufficiently19:15
rickspencer3in any case, it seems like a good thing to propose and explore, but warrants some discussion before a final decision is taken19:15

rickspencer3well, tbh, I didn't realize it was removed from the kernel19:20
rickspencer3a bit changes the tone l)19:20
rickspencer3*;)19:20
ScottKRight.19:20
rickspencer3anyway, the discussion needs to take place19:20
broderit would be nice if we could make some reasonable runtime guesses as to whether or not it would work on a given piece of hardware19:20
rickspencer3there are pros and cons and options19:20
ScottKBrings up the "If I have to compile my own kernel anyway, why am I using *buntu" question.19:20
rickspencer3broder, I was thinking of a white list combined with a checkbox to turn it on if you're not on the white list19:21
ScottKMy only problem with it recently is sometimes I don't have enough swap available (which I can fix), so it's not necessarily a fixed list of what works and what doesn't.19:21
broderyeah, sure, though maintaining that list is obviously difficult, especially with release-to-release regressions19:21
rickspencer3but, it's not really my decisions, I'm just trying to make sure that it gets discussed, and doesn't end up happening a bit by default19:22
broderScottK: available swap is easy to test for19:22
ScottKbroder: Agreed.  It does that now and then doesn't shut down.19:22
ScottKrickspencer3: I didn't see anything on ubuntu-devel.  Is it just on -desktop so far?19:23
rickspencer3ScottK, could be19:24
rickspencer3I sent it to both lists19:24
keesrickspencer3: you only sent to u-desktop? not -devel?19:27
broderno, it was to devel as well. i bet it's stuck in moderation or something19:27
rickspencer3kees, ubuntu-devel@lists.ubuntu.com19:27
* kees waits on https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2011-January/date.html19:28
broderrickspencer3: the e-mail came from your @canonical address. for future reference, my recollection is that anything from an @ubuntu.com address (or maybe from the ubuntu.com smtp server?) is automatically accepted19:29
rickspencer3broder, thanks for the info19:30
sconklinpitti, StevenK: is there an actual archive on launchpad (accessible through the API) which corresponds with http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/ ??19:39
broderactually, what makes hibernate unreliable? because it doesn't seem like it should be hardware dependent - it seems more like it's an issue with not enough swap, or unfavorable disk layouts that the initrd can't dig into correctly, etc19:40

apwi don't think i was there fore the discussion, only the final messge it was to go19:55
rickspencer3i don't think we should worry about turning it back on for A219:55
rickspencer3it's not worth a respin and revalidating19:56
rickspencer3imo19:56
ScottKrickspencer3: But we are going to turn it back on in the kernel, right?19:56
rickspencer3I would think so, but I think we should wait and see how the discussion progresses19:56
ScottKrickspencer3: So far we're only discussing disabling the U/I on one flavor of Ubuntu.  It would seem odd to me that might drive the decision about a kernel change.19:58
rickspencer3ScottK, you make a good point, I asked someone to add to the thread that it's actually turned off in the kernel right now19:59
ScottKrickspencer3: That's been done.19:59

pgranerrickspencer3, so we turned it off in the kernel20:01
rickspencer3probably my fault for not connecting all the dots properly20:01
rickspencer3however, there is plenty of time to discuss and turn it back on, etc...20:02
ScottKAt this point you've ripped it out from under all the other flavors with no discussion.  You need to decide if that as appropriate or not.20:03
ScottKIf it's not, please have it turned back on.20:04
ScottKNot sure what else there is to discuss.20:04
rickspencer3let me log a bug to get it turned back on20:04
rickspencer3I don't think anyone is particularly married to the idea of it being off in the kernel20:04
pgranerrickspencer3, nope we can turn it back on post A220:07
rickspencer3ok20:07
rickspencer3let me start a new bug for turning it back on the kernel, and sorry for the confusion20:08
smagounrickspencer3: thanks for doing that. Would you post the bug # here when you're done?20:10

broderugh, smtplib doesn't have a mode where it will do that itself? that's kind of lame21:25
ScottKbroder: It's smtplib, not DNS.21:26
broderyeah, but "send this message to whoever is the mx for the recipient" seems like a pretty common thing to do21:27
StevenKUh, doing a lookup of an MX inside Python is not expensive?21:27
geserthat's also means SRU's are needed21:27
cjwatsonStevenK: how do you do it then?  I was just googling ...21:27
StevenKDamn it, I knew some one was going to ask that.21:28
cjwatsonso far, only found a stackoverflow comment saying that doing MX lookups in python requires a third-party module21:28
ScottKIt's not that hard.21:28
ScottKI'm the Debian maintainer for python-dns.21:28
ScottKOne could also use dns-python.  That's a bit overkill for this.21:28
cjwatsonthough dnspython is at least in main21:29
cjwatson(but I agree, it's a big hammer)21:29
StevenKBah, seems I'm mis-remembering. Doing DNS lookups in Python can be done with 'socket', but things like MX or NS lookups need a 3rd party module.21:29
broderyeah, that was what i thought21:30
ScottKcjwatson: Since I'm maintaining python-dns, I don't think it matters much which is in Main.21:30
cjwatsonScottK: heh, fair enough21:30

scott-workcjwatson: if i were to fix the seeds and push it back to bzr would you be able to help me get the meta packages rebuilt?21:32

geserScottK: are you going to file a bug about it for u-d-t? or should I do it?21:33
cjwatsonscott-work: doesn't need metapackage rebuilds, just needs a tasksel rebuild.  yes I can do that.21:33
ScottKgeser: No.  I'm going to fix it.21:33
geserok and thanks21:34
scott-workcjwatson: i will update the seeds in approximately six hours time from now21:34
scott-workcjwatson: and thank you again!21:34
geserScottK: don't we need a bug for the SRU? as maverick and lucid are affected too21:34
ScottKGood point.21:34
ScottKPlease file it.21:34
cjwatsonscott-work: is it possible to do it before I go to bed?21:35
cjwatsonscott-work: if you do it six hours from now, I won't update tasksel until I get up in the morning, and we'll miss the cron job that should be building the alpha-2 images21:36
scott-workcjwatson: unfortunately i'm at work and will not leave for another 1.5 hours, plus need to pick kids up on the way home21:36

SpamapScjwatson: so the most reliable way that I can find to determine whether or not to use upstart is to drop a fake randomly named job in /etc/init and ask upstart what its status is.. if it doesn't know about the job, then I assume we're in a chroot.21:41
StevenKgeser: That's so not the bug.21:41
broderSpamapS: oww21:41
StevenK"Talks directly to a machine, assuming it's the MX for launchpad.net"21:41
cjwatsonSpamapS: look at /proc/1/exe?21:42
SpamapScjwatson: its a symlink. :-/21:42
SpamapSas is /proc/root and /proc/cwd21:42
SpamapSno help at all :P21:42
geserStevenK: fixed the bug description (taken yours)21:42
cjwatsonI've definitely seen code along those lines that worked21:42
brodercjwatson: i know you can see if something is in a chroot under you looking at /proc/pid/root21:43
broderi don't think it works the other way around21:43
cjwatsoninitramfs-tools.preinst21:43
cjwatsontested, works fine21:44
cjwatsonof course on the feature test principle it would be better to test whether upstart knows about the job, so that things work once upstart gains chroot support, but that may be too complex to live21:44
broderoh right, you have to look at the inode number. i remember seeing that now21:45
SpamapSThe inode number of what exactly?21:45
SpamapS?21:45
cjwatsonsee initramfs-tools.preinst21:45
broderyour / vs. /proc/1/root21:45
cjwatsonthere's a chrooted() function there which works21:45
SpamapSright, that is reasonaly accurate, but fails if you chroot into a dedicated mount point21:45
cjwatson"dedicated mount point"?21:46
broderSpamapS: sorry, combination of the inode and the device number that contains / :)21:46
SpamapSmkdfs file ; mount -o loop file /mnt/mychroot ; copy stuff to /mnt/mychroot ; chroot /mnt/mychroot /bin/bash21:46
SpamapSdev number yes that works21:46
cjwatsonplease try the code I referred to21:46
SpamapSyes I was waiting for bzr branch ;)21:47
cjwatsoncat /var/lib/dpkg/info/initramfs-tools.preinst21:47
SpamapSoh that would have been clever wouldn't it have?21:47
SpamapS    # borrowed from udev's postinst21:48
cjwatsonit was in Debian udev's postinst, I think, not Ubuntu's21:48
* SpamapS is wary of spreading the evil of copy/paste :-P21:48
cjwatsonyes, still is21:48
cjwatsonmeh21:48
cjwatsonI mean I kind of agree but this is code we already know we intend to throw away21:48
SpamapSThat branch of Scott's looked reasonably mature.. did you get any feeling as to how likely it was to make it into natty?21:49
broderthe upstart spec still has it scheduled for natty, right?21:50
cjwatsonfairly, I think, he and James just need to agree on maintenance practices21:50
cjwatson(not that there's a fundamental disagreement AFAIK, it just needs to get nailed down)21:50
SpamapSCool. So this really is just likely to be something for lucid and maverick only.21:50
cjwatsonI'm not going to worry about that until closer to feature freeze21:50
jcastroogra: did you get the mail from the banshee upstream guy (gabriel) wrt. ARM?21:51
SpamapSso.. the question in my mind is how do we know to throw this code in openssh-server away when upstart gets the new capability...21:51
cjwatsonif you come up with something, let me know :)21:53
