[09:34] <ev> bdmurray: I can reproduce that updates bug locally.  I'm going to throw the day at it.
[09:35] <ev> bug 761094, that is

[10:49] <ev> hm, so I could force a shutdown of the database just before we set up the parallel_db to flush the contents to disk.
[11:04] <ev> yay, that seems to have worked, and is a minimally invasive way of dealing with this for natty
[11:18] <CIA-7> ubiquity: evand * r4698 trunk/ (debian/changelog ubiquity/frontend/gtk_ui.py):
[11:18] <CIA-7> ubiquity: Briefly shut down the debconf database to flush any changes before
[11:18] <CIA-7> ubiquity: starting the parallel database (LP: #761094).
[11:48] <ev> now back to why the incomplete language support dialog isn't getting written
[12:21] <ev> hm, yeah, still can't reproduce this one
[12:21] <ev> a
[12:21] <ev> nd I think the one point where I thought I did was in error
[12:21] <ev> (didn't disable the network)
[12:26] <CIA-7> ubiquity: evand * r4699 trunk/ (bin/oem-config-remove debian/changelog):

[15:32] <ev> I think we should preserve passwd lines for any accounts with home directories, given this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/763075
[15:32] <ubot2> Launchpad bug 763075 in ubiquity "Upgrade process creates new user account, deletes all of my installed software" [Undecided,New]
[16:00] <ev> bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/763079 - mm, I also wonder if we should disable langpack downloads when the "download updates" box is unchecked, in case people are interpreting it as a generic "download things during install" option like this individual did
[16:00] <ubot2> Launchpad bug 763079 in ubiquity "Installation on external HDD crashes (Lenovo Ideapad S205)" [Undecided,New]
[16:53] <genec> Natty-Beta2 desktop does not appear to be detecting a previous install on a btrfs partition and only offers to erase everything or do something else.
[16:53] <genec> I'd assume I should file a bug.  which package is best?
[16:53] <ev> genec: what's the output of sudo os-prober
[16:55] <genec> ev: it's going to be a bit before I can answer as I have to reinstall.  I nuked it with a 10.04 install to see what it would display.
[16:56] <ev> okay
[16:57] <genec> I needed to know what it should look like in order to feel justified in calling it a bug
[17:00] <ev> sure, I imagine that os-prober is failing to identify that as an Ubuntu partition
[17:00] <ev> thus Ubuntu isn't considering it for the reinstall option
[17:00] <ev> could be wrong, but that's a start :)
[17:23] <CIA-7> user-setup: evand * r237 ubuntu/ (debian/changelog user-setup-apply):
[17:23] <CIA-7> user-setup: Provide an infinitely better check for /dev being mounted
[17:23] <CIA-7> user-setup: (LP: #673028). Fixes encrypted swap.
[17:35] <CIA-7> user-setup: evand * r238 ubuntu/debian/changelog: releasing version 1.28ubuntu15
[17:38] <bdmurray> ev: would you be okay with marking bug 194946 as a duplicate of bug 420080?

[17:39] <ev> bdmurray: go for it :)
[18:01] <genec> ev: os-prober shows nothing. (yes, as root)
[18:01] <genec> exit code 0
[18:01] <ev> genec: looks like a bug in os-prober then. Do you have an /etc/lsb-release file?
[18:02] <ev> on this partition
[18:03] <genec> ev: yes but it's also under the "@" subvolume as is default of the installer
[18:04] <ev> genec: okay, can you file a bug against os-prober with those details?
[18:04] <genec> ev: yep.  thanks.
[18:04] <ev> very much appreciated
[18:04] <genec> the partitioner of course shows the partitions
[18:08] <genec> ev: "os-prober: does not detect Ubuntu in btrfs subvolume" seem appropriate?
[18:09] <ev> correct
[18:15] <genec> ev: bug 764893

[18:16] <bdmurray> ev: How hard would it be to SRU maverick for bug 562312? padding for kernel and initramfs

[18:16] <ev> okay, I'm targetting that to Natty.  Hopefully I'll find some time to dig into it before Thursday.
[18:17] <ev> bdmurray: very easy
[18:17] <ev> bdmurray: could you create tasks for whichever releases you care about and assign them to me?
[18:17] <genec> ev: will there be any warnings (in the Installer or Release Notes) that btrfs support is still highly experimental?
[18:18] <ev> genec: that's more of a question for #ubuntu-release
[18:18] <ev> I honestly don't know
[18:18] <ev> definitely not in the installer
[18:18] <ev> we're well past UI freeze
[18:18] <bdmurray> ev: yeah, the thing I'm having a hard time with is will people still use usb-creator on Maverick after next week but if its easy better to stop these apport-package bugs from coming in
[18:19] <ev> right-o
