| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 726740 in ubiquity "Manual Partition in Ubiquity difficult to use due to Boot Loader text" [Undecided,Confirmed] | 07:28 |
| ikt | any chance that will be fixed? | 07:29 |
| cjwatson | wow, that's pretty bad, yes, we need to fix that | 10:25 |
| cjwatson | I think it's accidental, not a design decision or anything | 10:25 |
| cjwatson | milestoned for beta-1 | 10:26 |
| ev | indeed, that one has been on my radar via other bugs | 10:31 |

| cjwatson | ev: oh, have you pushed a new wubi build? | 14:47 |
| * cjwatson wants to find out whether it works OOTB now | 14:48 | |
| ev | wow, creepy, I was *just* doing that | 14:48 |
| cjwatson | heh, snap | 14:48 |
| * cjwatson tries to get used to aubergine d-di | 14:49 | |
| cjwatson | d-i | 14:49 |
| ev | intentional or a side-effect of other work? | 14:49 |
| cjwatson | kirkland has been working on it | 14:49 |
| ev | neat-o | 14:50 |
| ev | http://people.canonical.com/~evand/wubi/natty/wubi-r205.exe | 14:50 |
| * kirkland waves | 14:50 | |
| kirkland | cjwatson: if you have color/palette suggestions, talk to marcus, as he's been fiddling with them a little | 14:51 |
| kirkland | cjwatson: he's given me a new grey, which is slightly darker, so that white-on-gray works better | 14:51 |
| cjwatson | my colour tastes are rarely in line with anyone else's. :-) | 14:53 |
| cjwatson | ev: ta | 14:53 |
| ev | sure thing | 14:54 |
| kirkland | cjwatson: well then, it's all configurable now :-) | 14:58 |
| kirkland | cjwatson: speaking of, would you like to give the newt-configuration patch a review? I got kees to review it before I uploaded | 14:58 |
| ogra | choot: command not found | 14:58 |
| kirkland | cjwatson: i'm going to send it upstream for their comments presently | 14:58 |
| ogra | kirkland, instead of adding colors to the shell, add intelligence to fiy my typos :P | 14:58 |
| ogra | *fix even :P | 14:59 |
| kirkland | ogra: heh, sure, i'll get on it | 14:59 |
| cjwatson | kirkland: I don't see any obvious problems, but I don't have time to think about it much | 15:01 |
| kirkland | cjwatson: okay, that's good enough for now | 15:01 |
| CIA-31 | ubiquity: evand * r4585 ubiquity/ (debian/changelog scripts/plugininstall.py): * Mount /proc and friends for apt-clone. | 16:23 |
| cjwatson | I'm getting increasingly tempted to convert all the temporary-mount stuff in the installer to use grub-fstest instead (with a fallback to temporary mounts for architectures where GRUB doesn't work yet) | 18:07 |
| cjwatson | Temporary mounts in Linux are just too fragile, even with blockdev --setro | 18:07 |
| davmor2 | ev, cjwatson: I just tried an install of the current iso for natty on an nvidia box and the installer crashed, I'll grab the info as soon as I have time but thought I'd let you know in the meantime | 18:48 |
| ev | awesome | 18:49 |
| ev | please file a bug and assign it to me | 18:49 |
| superm1 | ev, would it be possible to instead turn on partner and pull flash from there rather than using flashplugin-installer when 3rd party sources is checked? it seems like it would be more failproof | 18:55 |
| ev | we'd have to move flashplugin-installer out of ubuntu-restricted-addons and into ubuntu-restricted-extras (or is it vice-versa?) as well, but that's easy | 18:56 |
| ev | I'm not sure why we don't just turn on partner by default though | 18:56 |
| ev | cjwatson? | 18:56 |
| superm1 | well or make in ubuntu-restricted-addons resolve adobe-flashplugin | flashplugin-installer or so | 18:59 |
| davmor2 | man they removed w3m from the install how you meant to report bugs with no gui, D'oh! | 18:59 |
| ev | ah, good call | 19:00 |
| davmor2 | ev: bug 739632 which looks to be a dupe of another one but I've left it separate on the off chance that it isn't. | 19:04 |
| ev | I see no such bug | 19:07 |
| davmor2 | ev: I'd love to assign it to you but ev is too short evand and evan dandrea don't seem to exist | 19:08 |
| davmor2 | ev: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/739632 | 19:10 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 739632 in ubiquity "ubiquity-dm crashed with ValueError in command(): invalid literal for int() with base 10: ''" [Undecided,New] | 19:10 |
| davmor2 | ev: I've made it public too | 19:10 |
| cody-somerville | cjwatson, ev: Did something change? Are users not a part of a group with the same name as their username anymore but instead a 'users' group? | 19:12 |
| cody-somerville | (on fresh installs) | 19:12 |
| ev | davmor2: ah, that's probably why I didn't see it | 19:13 |
| ev | cody-somerville: not to my knowledge... | 19:13 |
| cody-somerville | I'm doing an install of Maverick now but our new PM manager who just recently installed 10.10 ran into a problem when using bzr for the first time (Unable to copy ownership from '/home/jagosta' to '/home/jagosta/.bazaar': IOError: [Errno 1] Operation not permitted: '/home/jagosta/.bazaar'.). Looking, his home directory is owned by jagosta:jagosta but files he creates are owned by jagosta:users and he isn't a member of jago | 19:15 |
| cody-somerville | sta but is a member of users: https://pastebin.canonical.com/44973/ | 19:15 |
| cody-somerville | hmm.. in my vm install I don't have this problem... but I know our new PM manager isn't the first to run into this issue, see LP #661678 | 19:20 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 661678 in bzr "bzr whoami: unable to copy ownership from '$HOME/.bazaar' to '$HOME/.bazaar/bazaar.conf'" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/661678 | 19:20 |
| CIA-31 | ubiquity: evand * r4586 ubiquity/ (debian/changelog scripts/plugininstall.py): * Use the noninteractive debconf frontend when calling apt-clone. | 19:29 |
| cjwatson | ev: general reluctance to abuse Canonical's position, I think | 19:37 |
| cjwatson | turning it on when third-party sources are selected seems reasonable though | 19:37 |
| cjwatson | cody-somerville: I'm not aware of any changes along those lines either; per-user groups are absolutely the right thing | 19:38 |
| CarlFK | I have these lines in my preseed, but I don't see any trace in /etc/apt http://dpaste.de/OmpO/ d-i apt-setup/local0/repository string http://ddebs.ubuntu.com natty main restricted universe multiverse | 20:16 |
| kirkland | cjwatson: interestingly, the desktop ISO has a high contrast option; just need to get that added to the Server | 20:21 |
| cjwatson | yes, the choices are CD-type-specific | 20:23 |
| cjwatson | but as I say it needs a bit of care to get the command line right | 20:23 |
| cody-somerville | cjwatson, I'm quite confused then. There must be some sort of scenario that results in a | 20:23 |
| cody-somerville | 'users' group instead of a per-user group or something. | 20:23 |
| cjwatson | USERGROUPS=no in /etc/adduser.conf - but the installer never sets that | 20:24 |
| cjwatson | and the default for that has been yes forever, AFAIK | 20:25 |

| === ogra is now known as Guest27445 | ||
| cjwatson | cody-somerville: well, I have no idea then, sorry | 21:55 |
| cjwatson | cody-somerville: I've never seen this problem before | 21:55 |
| cody-somerville | cjwatson, Its happened to at least two different people. I see John in person next week so will try and determine if he did anything weird during install. | 21:56 |
| cjwatson | I understand, but I know of no installer code that could possibly do it ... | 21:56 |
| ev | ugh, dear partman, why are you asking for a partition off an automatic partitioning recipe | 22:09 |
| ev | phrased another way, what did I forget to do ;) | 22:09 |
| ev | ah ha! | 22:17 |
| ev | partman-rebuild-cache | 22:17 |
| ev | (15reuse calls update_partition) | 22:17 |
| CIA-31 | ubiquity: evand * r4587 ubiquity/ (5 files in 3 dirs): * apt-clone is now a separate package. | 23:22 |
| ev | bum, I think this is going to require set -x'ing base.sh to properly understand why seting partman-rebuild-cache is causing the choose_partition question to be asked | 23:51 |
| ev | well, that and diff | 23:51 |
