| ev | stgraber: having a look nowish | 09:11 |
|---|---|---|
| ev | joy, launchpad is timing out on bug attachments | 09:18 |
| ev | cjwatson: with respect to bug 758658, is there any historical reason why we don't retranslate once we get past the keyboard step and thus have a more complete locale (en_GB, for example)? | 09:50 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 758658 in Ubiquity Slideshow "Natty slideshow uses en_GB for all English users" [Wishlist,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/758658 | 09:50 |
| ev | perhaps that would be horribly inconsistent | 09:50 |
| ev | mm, that patch for 759804 isn't working quite as expected. Digging. | 10:24 |
| ev | ah, jockey and nvidia-glx rely on uname -r to work. Bum. | 11:05 |
| cjwatson | ev: the keyboard step shouldn't affect translations. The timezone step does, and I thought we did retranslate after it | 11:45 |
| cjwatson | we certainly should | 11:45 |
| ev | we don't appear to as far as I can tell. We call reset_locale in cleanup but that's it. | 11:48 |
| ev | for ubi-timezone, that is | 11:48 |
| ev | so then are you happy keeping country-specific pofiles and translating to them after that step? | 11:50 |
| ev | rather than just limiting ourselves to what localechooser can support | 11:52 |
| cjwatson | what do you need beyond what localechooser can support? I'd rather not have divergent treatments of locales | 11:53 |
| cjwatson | you can't properly select a locale that localechooser doesn't support anyway | 11:53 |
| ev | distinction between en_US and en_GB in the slideshow (as people are whining in bug 758658), which is possible without involving ubiquity, but it seems like a logical extension to support better translations there as well if we can. | 11:55 |

| cjwatson | but localechooser *does* support en_GB vs. en_US | 11:57 |
| cjwatson | d-i generally doesn't ship different translations for them, but localechooser is entirely capable of selecting either | 11:57 |
| ev | ahh, I've been going off of languagelist rather than following the code | 11:58 |
| cjwatson | it doesn't differentiate them at the language selection step, that's all ... | 11:58 |
| ev | apols | 11:58 |
| ev | okay, so roughly: tell ubiquity to retranslate with the complete locale after the timezone page, and stop removing country-specific pofiles from the source package. | 12:00 |
| cjwatson | or just add a couple of country-specific po files when necessary | 12:02 |
| cjwatson | it's often just noise, there's a certain amount of judgement involved | 12:02 |
| ev | sorting the slideshow should be as simple as adding the country-specific pofiles back, which I imagine is acceptable for natty. Do you think the ubi-timezone change is a step too far? (in which case I'll start the natty-beta branch divergence from there) | 12:02 |
| ev | indeed, I'll do it manually rather than modifying my existing remove-unused-languages script | 12:03 |
| cjwatson | no, I think it's fine; you could reduce the risk by only retranslating the slideshow | 12:03 |
| ev | okay, cool | 12:03 |
| cjwatson | ev: note BTW that your script is wrongly removing Norwegian | 12:03 |
| ev | oh yikes | 12:03 |
| ev | thanks for the heads up | 12:03 |
| ev | I'll fix it | 12:03 |
| cjwatson | I put it back recently and it looks like you've deleted it again | 12:03 |
| cjwatson | thanks | 12:04 |
| ev | sorry | 12:04 |
| cjwatson | np, I guessed the second time that it must be scripted ... | 12:04 |
| ev | heh, indeed | 12:05 |
| ev | stgraber: your patch doesn't appear to fix the bug. If I manually set the device for bootloader installation to /dev/sda1 and then add another partition, it shouldn't jump back to /dev/sda for the bootloader. | 14:08 |
| ev | Mind you, if I delete /dev/sda1, it should. | 14:08 |
| ev | ugh, when constructing a test for functionality in a particular configuration, it's probably best to make sure it works first in the general case :-/ | 14:12 |
| ev | nvidia-glx-173 being uninstallable, in this particular case | 14:13 |
| CIA-7 | choose-mirror: cjwatson * r1157 ubuntu/ (debian/changelog mirrorlist): | 15:06 |
| CIA-7 | choose-mirror: Record a dummy "GB" entry in templates files for non-country-specific | 15:06 |
| CIA-7 | choose-mirror: mirrors (i.e. ports.ubuntu.com) so that ports installations have more | 15:06 |
| CIA-7 | choose-mirror: choices than just "enter information manually" (LP: #756719). | 15:06 |
| CIA-7 | choose-mirror: cjwatson * r1158 ubuntu/debian/changelog: releasing version 2.37ubuntu2 | 15:08 |
| ev | how very odd. The man-db trigger is failing in the chroot when installing the nvidia driver via jockey, but jockey sets the frontend to noninteractive. | 15:35 |
| stgraber | ev: yeah, it definitely needs more testing and fixes ;) I'll work on that once I'm done testing Edubuntu | 15:42 |
| ev | cool, thanks | 15:42 |
| CIA-7 | cdebconf: cjwatson * r2340 ubuntu/debian/ (palette palette.dark palette.original palette.ubuntu): add debian/palette*, present in 0.154ubuntu2 upload but missing from bzr | 17:49 |

| ev | cracked that chestnut | 18:11 |
| ev | ish | 18:11 |
| ev | I've got hacks all over the place, but lets see what I can pear off | 18:11 |
| ev | final piece of the puzzle was that jockey sets the frontend to noninteractive, but ubiquity leaves DEBIAN_HAS_FRONTEND set | 18:12 |
| rbelem | ping cjwatson | 18:30 |
| cjwatson | rbelem: yes? | 19:10 |
| stgraber | ev: http://paste.ubuntu.com/594160/ seems to work relatively well with the few tests I did here | 19:35 |
| cjwatson | rbelem: in future, please just say what you want rather than pinging first | 19:46 |
| * highvoltage is considering adopting a policy of ignoring contentless pings | 20:00 | |
| rbelem | cjwatson, ok sorry | 21:52 |
| rbelem | cjwatson, i have some questions about oem-config | 21:52 |
| rbelem | cjwatson, i would like run some tasks after oem-config finishes | 21:53 |
| rbelem | cjwatson, how to do that? adding a script in /usr/lib/ubiquity? | 21:54 |
| bdmurray | How is "Download updates while installing" supposed to work? Should they be installed or just downloaded or something else? | 22:58 |
