smoseri submitted another patch for ec2-ami-tools about 18 montsh ago i think00:06
smoserwhich has not seen the light of day00:06
flaccidyeah, those tools don't return non zero exit codes in a lot of places too which is a fai.00:07
flaccid*fail00:07
erichammondI'm sitting on a couple patches I should really include in software I maintain, so I'm not going to point fingers.00:07
flaccidyeah but you ack them are will actually commit them :)00:08

uvirtbotLaunchpad bug 439788 in ec2-ami-tools "ec2-bundle-image and ec2-unbundle-image use single, static named fifo in /tmp" [Medium,Fix released]00:09
smoserwe carry that patch, which is actually moderate security issue if you were concerned about 2 users using bundle-vol on the same system00:09
flaccidbut getting it upstream is a different story right?00:09
smoseryeah.00:10
smoserwe had to carry that one, as 2 bundle-vol commands run at the same time (even by a different user) wreak havok00:11

kim0smoser Hi .. Getting a question on cloud portal "Will you release a Cluster Compute Instance for lucid lynx?"18:40
smoserno18:41
* kim0 nods18:41
smosers/no/maybe/18:41
smoserit would possibly be doable, and i dont think it would be terribly difficult.18:42
smoserbut i have no plans to do so18:42
kim0smoser: can I say, "It's doable, but there are no current plans. If you want to make it happen, we'll help" ?18:43
kim0and by we I mean mostly you :D18:43
kim0nvm, saying "If you want to make it happen, get on the mailing list, ask for it, and help make it happen. I'll help you in any way I can"18:45
smoserso... yeah, we could do it if there were demand, and i would definitely understand someone's interest in lucid rather than natty18:48
smoserand it would not be significantly more to build one than just flipping a value in one of the publishing scripts18:49
smoser(i dont think)18:49
smoserbut its a matter of testing and such that might make it a  bigger pain.  and i think there might be an issue with lucid kernels . have to see.18:51
kim0yeah makes sense18:51
kim0btw any idea why AWS and Rackspace use Xen and not KVM :) Is it that not-ready18:52
smoserkim0, so to get a test... http://paste.ubuntu.com/581253/18:54
smoseri'm sure there are lots of reasons18:55
smoserand i'm sure a xen fan would give you some18:55
smoserbut largely i would expect that they use it because they used it in the past18:55
kim0hmm ok18:55
smoserand have large amounts of code (and customer code and customer images) that prevent them from dropping it18:55
smoserkim0, ok. i enabled the build of a lucid daily for hvm19:15
kim0hehe awesome :)19:15
kim0were you too tempted19:16
smoserdont knwo if it will fail or not. lucid server builds friday 06:00 UTC19:19
