psusihrm... what happened to external media being auto mounted with -o uid=,gid=?  I thought that had been working for some time to override the permissions on broken filesystems... where is that implemented these days?  udisks right?00:06
persiapsusi, Yes.00:08
hallyn(sorry, didn't mean to sound harsh - libcg itself has just somehow never struck the right chord with me.  it *should*, except i prefer scripts to magic fragile configfiles)00:08
psusihrm... I'll have to take a look at the code then.. I have been sorting through some old dvd+rw discs and I couldn't access this one because it wasn't mounted with the uid,gid options...00:09

pooliei hope to enable it for your domain soon01:10
ScottKOK.01:10
ScottKIt seemed like a jargon term that would have been well understood by the LP people on the list and I didn't want to mis-guess what it meant.01:11
pooliesure01:14
poolieundoubtedly there will also be some ubuntu jargon that goes over my head too, or lp devs heads01:14
pooliebiab01:14
ScottKCertainly, that's why it's important to check on such things and make sure we have a common understanding.01:15
YokoZarScottK: I've been getting lots of spam from forged @ubuntu.com addresses...would you take it personally if Canonical wasn't running SPF on the ubuntu.com domain? ;)01:48
ScottKNot sure what you mean?01:48
ScottKYokoZar: There is no SPF record for ubuntu.com01:49
YokoZarRight01:49
YokoZarI vaguely remember a conversation at an airport with you about you having a big role in SPF01:50
ScottKI was involved in it's development.01:50
ScottKThe trick is that to publish a useful SPF record, Canonical would have to give Ubuntu members a way to send through an authorized outbound relay.01:51
YokoZarAnd thus it seems silly that we don't use it ;)01:51
ScottKI doubt they're up for that.01:51
macoforging is how i send emails from my @ubuntu.com address01:51
macokmail makes it easy!01:51
YokoZarYeah, true01:51
micahgyep, me too :)01:51
maco(my dad was really really O_O when i said i could send an email from him from my computer instead of from his lotus01:51
maco)01:51
broderScottK: wait, i thought there was a relay server i could send mail through for ubuntu.com...01:52
ScottKIs there?01:52
broderapparently not01:52
broderi thought i remembered configuring gmail with one, but i'm looking at it and i clearly didn't01:52
macoi use gmail as a relay01:52
maconah all you're doing in the case you make gmail able to send from it is telling gmail to forge it01:52
broderright, right01:52
macothey at least check that you actually have access to the account (by sending a confirmation email) first01:53
ScottKWe can use indium to send mail to LP, but that's all I know of.01:53
broderclearly we need an implementations of gmail's oauth sasl extension in postfix and major clients so we can authenticate against launchpad to an ubuntu.com MTA01:54
persiaI'm not sure I'd like to see SPF for @ubuntu.com.  I don't mind as much if someone pretends to be me when there's no confirmation that they are indeed me.01:54
persiabroder, Hrm.  I suppose that might work.01:55
broderpersia: except for the part where client support is guaranteed to be awful for the next N years01:55
ScottKpersia: SPF makes no assertion that mail is really from us, just that it came from a relay authorized by the domain owner.01:56
ScottKSo your deniability is still secure.01:56
persiabroder, All mail clients have been miserable and bad for the past 40 years.  I don't see why that would change.01:57
brodertouche01:57
persiaScottK, I know that, and you know that, but being the sort of person who regularly needs to defend deniability, I prefer when there isn't even an implication.01:57
ScottKpersia: If they ever corner you, you can also pull out DNS cache poisoning.01:58
ScottK(as an added reason why it wasn't you)01:58
persiaHeh.  It won't come to that.  I just don't see the value in a relatively open SPF-certified relay.01:59
ScottKAlso bad and miserable does have degrees.  If not, evolution wouldn't exist.01:59
persiaSomething like oauth could do it, but that's awkward to implement.01:59
ScottKI think it's not mostly interesting for the ones that might be OK, it's interesting for the ones that probably aren't.02:00
* persia hugs bug #110840 and continues not to use evolution02:00
ubottuLaunchpad bug 110840 in evolution (Ubuntu) "Evolution stores mail insecurely" [Low,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/11084002:00
macopersia: is that a reference to how im able to grep my emails if i use evolution instea of waiting for it to load and search?02:01
persiamaco, No, it's a reference about how I'm able to grep your mail in evolution without even pretending to be you.02:01
macopersia: if home dirs were 700 this wouldnt be a problem...02:01
persiaScottK, How do you mean (re: mostly interesting)?02:03
ScottKI rarely find "It passed SPF" very interesting except for a very restricted set of domains.02:04
persiaAh.  For those domains that are mostly-spam, it becomes an interesting way of identifying potential ham?02:04
ScottKOTOH, "It failed/didn't pass (those aren't quite the same thing) is broadly interesting.02:04
persiafailed means it originated from a non-certified host, and didn't pass means that there are no certified hosts?02:05
ScottKDidn't pass includes Fail, Softfail, Neutral, and error results.02:05
ScottKSo failed is a subset.02:06
ScottKFinding bad domains isn't very interesting.02:06
persiaAh.  That makes sense.  What's the difference between Fail and Softfail?02:06
ScottKSoftfail is like "We think it's not authorized, but we're not ready to commit to the completness of our list yet"02:07
ScottKpersia: The formal definition is http://www.openspf.org/RFC_4408#op-result-softfail02:09
* persia was starting with http://www.openspf.org/FAQ/What_is_SPF :)02:09
ScottKAnyway, bad domains are boring because they send nothing but crap whether it passes or not.02:09
ScottKGood domains are interesting because threat/not threat tends to match very closely with SPF result.02:10
persiaAnd most domains are neutral?02:11
ScottKThe published statistics I've seen seem to say that ~half of email has an SPF record for it.02:11
ScottKMost large domains don't want to take the hard line of saying "If it's not from an authorized source, treat it badly" since they don't want complaints.02:12
persiaThat's interesting.  I read that as "most spammers have adopted SPF"02:12
ScottKA lot of people have on both sides of the fence.02:13
ScottKThe nice thing about spammers adopting SPF is that it makes it possible to automatically construct reliable domain black lists.02:13
ScottK"Gee, all crap from that domain and it passes SPF, so they sent it - next time I'll just reject it after mail from"02:14
persiaIndeed.  makes the construction of rule semantics that much richer.02:14
ScottKIt you look at just SPF pass, domains tend to be either virtually all ham or all spam.  The middle ground is very small.02:15
persiaIsn't that the point?02:15
persiaI presume that domains without useful control over sending relays (e.g. @ubuntu.com) mostly choose not to participate currently.02:16
ScottKYes.02:16
ScottKIt also turns out to be hard for large entities to delpoy accurately just because they don't know their outbound architecture very well.02:17

didrocksDBO: it worths to wait and warn people :)21:00
bdmurrayseb128: this won't get caught by apport is that right?21:00
cjwatsonfortunately that's in Debian experimental so the orig exists publicly21:00
seb128bdmurray, not sure but the people who reported it did without apport and it's an assertion and not a crash21:01
seb128so it's likely apport will not report those21:01

ricotzsoren, i wanted to propose an update of the pretty old upstream version of plymouth, since 0.8.3 is pretty old too, i might be useful to take the current git version, i already packaged and using it21:06
cjwatsonif you do that make sure the quilt patches are intelligible21:07
cjwatsonand make extra sure that all the patches we still have on top of upstream are still there21:08
keesseb128: apport is _supposed_ to catch asserts.21:10
cjwatsoncatching asserts in the dynamic loader might be more of a challenge than usual ...21:10
sorenricotz: Yeah, I'm totally not the right person to talk to about that. I just did a couple of drive-by's on Plymouth.21:11
keesyeah, I think the dl asserts aren't actually hooked up to the glibc assert framework.21:11
keesin which case, apport will ignore it21:11
ricotzsoren, so slangasek might be the right person?21:13
ohsixseb128: ah21:14
ohsixseb128: the most pernicious ones are assertions, too :]21:14
slangasekricotz: well, I'd be willing to review any proposed merges.  cjwatson has the gist of it though21:14
cjwatsonI don't have time for such a plymouth merge at the moment, unfortunately21:15
slangasekricotz: also I'm not thrilled about updating plymouth the week before feature freeze... if that was going to be done this cycle it would've been better to merge it sooner21:15
ricotzslangasek, yeah i dont wanted to bug cjwatson, he seems pretty busy ;)21:15
cjwatson(one of the problems for me with sponsoring merges is that I always find that reviewing them takes much, much longer than doing it myself)21:15

slangasekcjwatson: hi, put two and two together and read through scrollback here; as it happens I was just about to push the orig.tar.gz for eglibc 2.13~pre1 onto the pristine-tar part of the UDD branch, is that going to slow you down if I do?  (Alternatively, is there something else you'd rather I be doing with my time in order to help rather than hinder? :)21:34
cjwatsonslangasek: I think that should be OK, as long as doing so doesn't change lp:ubuntu/eglibc itself?21:45
slangasekcjwatson: it does because it adds a no-change commit to lp:ubuntu/eglibc to add the reference to the upstream tarball21:46
slangasekcjwatson: so I'll just cool my heels until you're done, so I don't slow you down :)21:46
cjwatsonargh, upload rejected21:46
cjwatsona no-change commit won't make a difference21:46
* cjwatson grabs the orig from LP instead21:46
cjwatsonslangasek: please note that the orig in Debian and the one in Ubuntu aren't the same - I think because of the manual21:47
slangasekit's no change on the tip, it has a *large* batch of metadata :)21:47
