MootBotACTION received:  NCommander/ogra to review janimo SD alignment branch16:06
ogra_i think we both did, no ?16:06
NCommanderogra_: davidm on VAC so I don't know who can set it16:06
NCommanderI haven't had time to review16:06
ogra_i said its fine to merge16:06
NCommander[action] NCommander to get Documentation spec merged16:06
MootBotACTION received:  NCommander to get Documentation spec merged16:06
ogra_NCommander, once again ... slangasek owns that spec16:06
ogra_;)16:06
NCommanderogra_: er, no, I do.16:06
ogra_approver ...16:06
NCommanderk16:06
ogra_not david16:07
ogra_i just want to get the tracjker stuff done16:07
NCommanderanyway, netboot images are on track to be implemented next week (mostly) I hope16:07
NCommanderogra_: how are we towards starting to build server images on OMAP?16:07
ogra_well, the rest of my week will be dedicated to the PPA clusetr initrd scripts ... for the headless server image infinity took over the pool spec16:08
ogra_apart from that we only need some preseeding16:09
infinityIs any other server-image-related stuff basically blocking on that?16:09
ogra_could we please have a server topic instead ?16:09
ogra_doesnt really seem appropriate for WI review16:09
ogra_infinity, no, only the perinstalled headless images16:10
ogra_*pre16:10
NCommander[topic] ARM Server Status (NCommander, Daviey)16:10
infinityEither way, quick hack for pool stuff should land soon, and then I'll work later on a less hackish live-build implementation, so we transition smoothly when that switch happens.16:10
MootBotNew Topic:  ARM Server Status (NCommander, Daviey)16:10
NCommanderThere :-)16:10
ogra_awesome !16:10
* ogra_ doesnt have anything else for server atm :)16:11
NCommander[topic] Kernel Status (cooloney, rsalveti, ppisati)16:11
MootBotNew Topic:  Kernel Status (cooloney, rsalveti, ppisati)16:11
NCommanderI'm sorry, I'm lagging badly today16:12
ppisatiagain nothing new except for a load of CVE fixes16:12
ppisatiand a couple of config changes16:12
ppisatione related to lxc on omap416:12
ppisatiand another one about a kernel panic on imx5116:12
* ogra_ hasnt uploaded the ac100 kernel to oneiric yet ... just FTR16:12
ppisatibtw, i saw a patch flying around that would fix one of the memory pressure problem we have on omap416:12
rsalvetippisati: what problem exactly?16:13
ppisatiah yes, and the usb omap3 problem perhaps is a toolchain issue (but i haven't investigated yet)16:13
ppisatirsalveti: i saw a patch from... hold on...16:14
rsalvetiif you have the link, even better16:14
ppisatihttps://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-ti-omap4/+bug/69037016:14

rsalvetihm, ok, would be good to try and also publish it at l-o16:15
ppisatiyep16:16
rsalvetias he's touching the usbnet code, not just the smsc one16:16
ppisatibtwm do we have an ETA for .39 omap4?16:16

NCommander[topic] ARM Porting/FTBFS status (NCommander, janimo)16:19
MootBotNew Topic:  ARM Porting/FTBFS status (NCommander, janimo)16:19
janimono progress on my side16:19
janimoBP work16:19
infinityI'm no expert in build failures, but when I'm taking sanity breaks from specs, I could have a look.16:20
infinity(Note: the opening statement was ironic sarcasm)16:20
ogra_upstart really needs someones attention i think16:20
janimoFTBFS are not good for sanity either16:20
ogra_infinity, http://qa.ubuntuwire.org/ftbfs/16:20
* janimo plans to check GL/Qt type FTBFSes16:20
infinityjanimo: They were my life for almost a decade.  Explains a lot about me, doesn't it?16:21
ogra_only 7 armel only packages in main16:21
ogra_that fail16:21
janimoinfinity, I also like it sometimes but when the same bugs keep recurring it can get disappointing16:21
ogra_telepathy-glib will get in our way at some point16:21
ogra_and dbus too16:22
infinityogra_: I'm happy to look at tp-glib, I'm an upstream committer.16:22
janimoisn;t that also a ld segfault one?16:22
janimoI think some of these are blocked on ld being borken in some way, so many test cases fail16:22
infinityogra_: Err, unless it's a toolchain issue we're waiting on. :P16:22
ogra_yes, that was the original cause for the shrink warp stuff in natty16:22
ogra_but i thought the gcc change was supposed to fix it16:22
janimoif it were contained to upstream packages fixes would be nice and actually fulfilling as you'd send patches upstream16:22
* ogra_ doesnt really get why it returned16:23
infinityjanimo: No workarounds for the ld segv (like, is it choking on specific output from gcc, or literally everything?)16:23
janimowhen is's a ld gcc regression it is painful16:23
janimoinfinity, did not investigage further16:23
infinityKay.16:23
janimochromium is affected too16:23
ogra_the workaround was -O016:23
ogra_for telepathy-glib specifically16:23
janimoogra_, this may be something else though16:23
ogra_it solved the linker issue16:24
janimomore packagesa are affected an I don;t think shrinkwrap was reenabled16:24
infinityWell, if it's not a 100% segv, changing optimisation will often fix your issue, yes.16:24
infinityCause it's choking on (probably) bad output from gcc.16:24
ogra_yep16:24
ogra_well, telepathy-glib, dbus, libnih and upstart are critical on the list16:24
infinityGranted, I'd give large bags of money to fix the segfaults in binutils so it can usefully error on bad input intead of exploding.16:24
ogra_so anyone who feels like it, please pick one of these four first :)16:25
infinityWell, I may be panda-fied sometime today.  If so, I'll happy to locally grind and get workarounds uploaded until the toolchain's fixed.16:25
infinitys/I'll happy/I'll be happy/16:26
ogra_note that the desktop team will drop the telepathy fix next release again16:26
infinityThey don't believe in merges?16:27
infinityOr just to keep us on our toes? :P16:27
ogra_until we have a proper upstream fix16:27
infinityI can just push the fix upstream instead.  *cough*16:27
infinityAnyhow.16:27
ogra_iirc we -O0'ed that package twice already16:27
infinityWe'll see if I find a fix first.16:27
ogra_NCommander, move ?16:28
* ogra_ jumps up and down waving an NCommander flag16:29
NCommander[topic] ARM Image Status (ogra, NCommander)16:30
MootBotNew Topic:  ARM Image Status (ogra, NCommander)16:30
* NCommander kicks the nternet16:30
ogra_well, i just started a testbuild with the desktop seed16:30
ogra_if that survives (which it seems to unless antimony hangs) i'll change the crontab entries16:30
NCommanderyay16:31
ogra_so we should have desktop images from tomorrow on ... what we need to do is to go through the set of installed packages and see what we want to keep on armel16:31
NCommandernetboot images should exist today, though they'll probably be another week or so before they'll work on omap416:31
ogra_i.e. do we want to have evo etc16:32
ogra_(or TB, since i think there was a decision to switch)16:32
GrueMasterWe should match the desktop image.16:33
ogra_ac100 images seem to work for everybody but NCommander and GrueMaster ... i still try to find the reason for that before adding it to oneiric16:33
GrueMasterUnless we continue to use arm specifics.  Which means webmail.16:33
ogra_GrueMaster, so you want to test heavyweight mail clients ?16:33
ogra_we can use overrides in the seed file16:34
ogra_so we can make our pick if we want to go with the x86 one or want to replace packages16:34
GrueMasterWhat I'm saying is that the current armel images use web apps for email & office.16:34
ogra_yes16:34
infinityAnd if we move from that, we should use what everyone else is using.16:34
ogra_we need to make a decision if we want to keep it that way or not16:34
infinityFor our own sanity. :P16:34
ogra_but that should be decided with david available :)16:35
GrueMasterSo c/o.16:35
ogra_for now i'll build what we get16:35
ogra_without touching the seeds16:35
* ogra_ has nothing else16:35
NCommander[topic] QA Status (GrueMaster)16:36
MootBotNew Topic:  QA Status (GrueMaster)16:36
GrueMasterTrying to get filesystem benchmarks running.  So far phoronix-test-suite has been running filesystem tests on one panda w/ 16G class 10 since Tuesday.16:36
GrueMasterVery slow.16:37
ogra_what fs are you testing there atm ?16:37
GrueMasterBaseline.16:37
ogra_baseline ?16:37
GrueMasterI am running the natty image to establish a baseline.16:37
ogra_ah16:38
ogra_so ext2 updated ...16:38
GrueMasterExt3,16:38
ogra_its ext2 updated with tune2fs16:38
GrueMasterNext will be backup/reformat/restore.16:38
GrueMasterWell, the only difference between ext2 & ext3 is the added journal.16:39
ogra_nope16:39
ppisatiactually it's not a surprise, arnd bergmann ha d a couple of talks @ UDS about what linux do right WRT to flash: almost nothing16:39
ogra_there is versioning etc in the signature it doesnt get recognized the same16:39
ppisatiit's more than jyst the filesystem16:39
ogra_yes16:39
janimowe should switch to ext4  soon16:39

GrueMasterOn second attempt now.  Still fails.16:41
ogra_bugs :)16:41
GrueMasterTesting will be severely limited next week while I am in London.16:41
ogra_what do you mean by "todays" btw16:41
GrueMaster20110609.16:42
ogra_i think the last two builds failed16:42
ogra_hmm16:42
ogra_oh, that was yesterday16:42
ogra_nevermind16:42
GrueMasterAC100 is currently hosed.  No proper backup to revert to.16:43
GrueMasterHave been unsuccessful in recovery efforts.16:43
ogra_hmpf16:44
ogra_what model was that ?16:44
GrueMasterAnd without published images from the manufacturer, it will be hard to fix.16:44
GrueMaster10Z16:44
ogra_k16:45
GrueMasterIf there are still units in London, I will try to recover next week while I am there.16:45
NCommanderI thought there was a master recovery from tobisha16:46
ogra_that sounds like a plan16:46
ogra_NCommander, there isnt16:46
ogra_there is exactly *nothing* from toshiba for the ac10016:46
GrueMasterThere is, but our image appears to have blasted it.16:46
GrueMasterIt is on a separate partition.16:46
ogra_the image doesnt touch recovery16:46
GrueMasterHold home while powering up.16:46
ogra_you blasted it with your android upgrade16:47
GrueMasterWell, then that is on Toshiba.16:47
ogra_the 2.2 android doesnt use the backup partition at all anymore16:47
ogra_anyway, lets talk after the meeting16:47
GrueMasterI have nothing else.16:47

MootBotNew Topic:  Open Discussions18:18
vishin https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBugDay/Organizing#Announcement%20E-mail  can we add the mentoring team to the regular team cc list?18:19
pedro_anything else to raise, announce, etc ?18:19
pedro_vish, sure! i'll add it18:19
hggdhhey18:19
vishpedro_: thx :)18:19
hggdhthe mentoring team _should_ be subscribed to bugsquad, right?18:19
vishnot necessarily.  do we have that in the requisites?18:20
* vish checks18:20
charlie-tcait seems like mentees should be part of bugsquad18:20
pedro_vish, done, the mentoring team was added to the cc list18:21
vishthx..18:21
pedro_the wiki page doesn't say anything about mentees being part of the bugsquad18:23
pedro_https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BugSquad/Mentors18:23
pedro_i don't see much diff on being part of it or not though18:24
pedro_diff as in benefit18:24
pedro_folks anything else you want to raise at the meeting?18:25
pedro_Today we're celebrating a bug day, so if you have time : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBugDay/20110609 ; help us to squash some bugs there18:26
charlie-tcapedro_: I disagree on the mentee/bugsqad member18:28
charlie-tcaBeing a mentee says "I want to be in bugsqad and eventually bug control"18:28
charlie-tcaThen they should be part of the mailing list that keeps them informed of important things concerning that bugsquad18:29
pedro_so shall we put that as a requirement? subscribe to the bugsquad mailing list18:29
vishbut how do we make sure they are subscribed?18:30
pedro_we ask them to send an email saying hello?18:30
vishk..18:30
charlie-tcaDon't they have specific things we check already before letting them into the group?18:31
vishcharlie-tca: we check the CoC , but for this mailiman Bugsquad list  it is not easy, for the LP team it is easy to compare numbers18:31
vishthe group is smaller, but bugsquad list is huge and has others as well..18:32
pedro_right, only the admins can check the members of a list18:33
charlie-tcaOh, then make it a suggestion, maybe?>18:33
vishpedro_: actually others can check too, but it is not easy to keep track.18:34
pedro_charlie-tca, and put a 'hey if you want to keep informed of important things concerning to the bugsquad make sure to join our mailing list'18:34
vishthe list will show the email ids, we wont know if who is who18:34
vishs/if//18:35
pedro_then we as mentors can check again if they came up with a question in the mentoring team18:35
pedro_that as a reminder to join the list18:35
pedro_so what do you guys think, shall we go for the suggestion and then the double check when they start working in the mentoring team?18:36
vishpedro_: we would then be asking them to join two mailing lists, not sure it is the ideal way to make people know info.. we can suggest but we can not be sure they are subscribed..18:36
pedro_right18:37
hggdhdon't we require the mentees to join bugsquad?18:37
hggdh(and the ML)18:37
pedro_nope18:38
vishhggdh: nope not right now, but iirc we had that removed , i think bdmurray might know about that, if it was removed18:38
hggdhOK. I think we should ;-)18:38
pedro_ok shall we discuss this at the bugsquad ML ?18:39
vishsounds good..18:39
pedro_ok lets do that18:39
pedro_alright folks anything else to discuss?18:40
