RAOF | What? Gah! There should be an easier way of testing armel builds than failing on the buildd. | 00:24 |
---|---|---|
slangasek | there's a porter machine | 00:25 |
slangasek | and there's qemu | 00:25 |
RAOF | Yeah, there's the porter machine. | 00:25 |
slangasek | RAOF: apt-get install qemu-user-static; /usr/sbin/qemu-debootstrap -aarmel [...] | 00:25 |
RAOF | The buildds take *8 hours* to build mesa; a local build would still be going from yesterday. | 00:25 |
slangasek | there's a cross-compiler package :) | 00:26 |
RAOF | I've got an armel schroot, and for things smaller than mesa it's very nice :) | 00:26 |
RAOF | This typo was in the install target of debian/rules though, so… urgh. | 00:28 |
directhex | slangasek: an ubuntu porter machine? | 00:28 |
slangasek | you've inspired me to check whether I can get away with cross-installing all the mesa build-deps with mulitarch | 00:28 |
slangasek | directhex: a Canonical ubuntu porter machine, sorry :/ | 00:29 |
slangasek | shell access in the DC, company policy, etc etc | 00:29 |
directhex | yeah, that's fine. i've never encountered an arm bug on ubuntu's smp omap4 target that i haven't hit on a single-core efikamx | 00:29 |
directhex | no, wait, the opposite of what i just said | 00:29 |
slangasek | the porter machine isn't an smp omap4 anyway | 00:30 |
directhex | winnar | 00:30 |
RAOF | When will multiarch stop killing update-manager? | 00:30 |
RAOF | :) | 00:31 |
slangasek | RAOF: oh, how's it killing it for you? It works for me! :) | 00:37 |
directhex | i'm sure i can badger access to a pandaboard in the office if i need to (note: this is a lie) | 00:37 |
RAOF | Hm. Last time I tried it would kinda refresh the apt cache and then die with an inscrutable error message. | 00:38 |
RAOF | And I went back to apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade… | 00:38 |
RAOF | I'll try again once apt's finished :) | 00:38 |
slangasek | RAOF: so as of the last u-m changes before the natty release, all those issues have been resolved for me | 00:38 |
RAOF | I'll try again, and this time report bugs when they fail. | 00:40 |
slangasek | yay :) | 00:41 |
RAOF | So, does this mean we're actually quite close from being able to drop mesa from ia32-libs? | 00:41 |
RAOF | What's left before i386 is a default foreign arch? | 00:41 |
slangasek | we wouldn't drop mesa from ia32-libs, we would want to drop ia32-libs itself from the archive | 00:42 |
slangasek | "what's left" - we need to be satisfied that turning on i386+amd64 isn't going to carry so much a penalty in index download time that it makes it (more) painful to run apt-get update | 00:43 |
RAOF | Hm. Looks like update-manager's perfectly happy now. | 00:46 |
RAOF | Yeah. I'm now downloading ~50MB of apt indexes. | 00:46 |
RAOF | slangasek: Ah. The partial-upgrade tool seems be spinning indefinitely. Is there any debugging information I can nab before killing it? | 00:59 |
slangasek | RAOF: mm, no idea on that, sorry | 00:59 |
RAOF | Not something you've run into? | 00:59 |
RAOF | Ok. Well, I'll file a bug and see. | 01:00 |
slangasek | RAOF: nope, not run into it that I can recall | 01:01 |
RAOF | slangasek: bug 798478 | 01:13 |
ubottu | Launchpad bug 798478 in update-manager (Ubuntu) "Partial upgrade spins indefinitely in “Preparing to upgrade” with multiarch" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/798478 | 01:13 |
RAOF | Ah, need to update the title. It doesn't spin indefinitely, it waits for you to submit a bug and then throws up an error message :) | 01:14 |
slangasek | heh :) | 01:19 |
Keybuk | slangasek: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052702304066504576345782284098222.html?KEYWORDS=telecommuting+tax | 01:37 |
Keybuk | ouch | 01:37 |
Keybuk | which state is Canonical Inc incorporated in, again? :) | 01:37 |
directhex | isle of man, iirc? | 01:38 |
Keybuk | directhex: that's Canonical Ltd | 01:38 |
micahg | New York and New Jersey have extremely punitive tax codes | 01:39 |
Keybuk | http://www.manta.com/c/mtvfcjz/canonical-usa-inc | 01:39 |
directhex | Keybuk: handy. maybe there's more reason for collabora.ca than i thought | 01:39 |
Keybuk | directhex: well, .ca has that law that defines the difference between an employee and a contractor, right? | 01:40 |
directhex | dunno, but we have plenty of contractors on the payroll :p | 01:40 |
Keybuk | there is, I believe, also a Canonical Canada Ltd | 01:40 |
Keybuk | it's funny how sladen stopped his Canonical tax accounting stalking when he joined ... | 01:41 |
directhex | it's also funny that he's not a DD | 01:41 |
micahg | hehe | 01:41 |

amit | distro: ubuntu server 10.04 | 03:30 |

mvo | pitti, dpm: I'm just looking at the merge of myspell-hr and the only change is to add a (or) dependency to language-support-writing-hr. it appears like this is the only of hte hypen packages doing this, can we drop that delta and sync the pkg? | 09:01 |
hrw | morning | 09:02 |
dpm | hey mvo, I'm not sure, I'll let pitti answer that one | 09:02 |
pitti | mvo: confirmed | 09:08 |

mvo | pitti: thanks, I will request the sync | 09:10 |
cjwatson | pitti: some discussion on the internal foundations list raised an interesting possibility: purge .pyc files from the live filesystem, and have ubiquity byte-compile them after copying the filesystem | 09:25 |
cjwatson | pitti: .pyc files are about 12MB right now | 09:25 |
cjwatson | we have to be careful to avoid making installed systems inconsistent between d-i and ubiquity, but if that can be avoided it does seem worth pursuing | 09:25 |
pitti | cjwatson: indeed, that came up recently | 09:27 |
pitti | cjwatson: but as the .pyc files are generated at package install time, and not shipped in the .debs, it should not be more inconsistent than a live vs. alternate install already is? | 09:27 |
cjwatson | well, if you removed them from the live filesystem and didn't have ubiquity do the byte-compile step, nothing would ever generate them until the packages in question are upgraded | 09:28 |
cjwatson | if ubiquity does that work, though, it's feasible | 09:28 |
pitti | right, that's what I meant | 09:28 |
pitti | I meant that it shouldn't matter much whether it was live-builder or ubiquity which triggers the pyc building | 09:29 |
cjwatson | it costs a bit of extra time at installation; but 12MB isn't small change | 09:29 |
pitti | even compressed that should be some 5 MB perhaps | 09:29 |
cjwatson | I'm quoting the compressed size | 09:29 |
cjwatson | it's more like 40MB uncompressed | 09:30 |
pitti | ! | 09:30 |
pitti | by the looks of man pycompile, we wouldn't even need to iterate over all packages, it seems it can build them all | 09:30 |
cjwatson | $ sudo find /mnt -name \*.pyc | xargs cat | gzip -9c | wc -c | 09:30 |
cjwatson | 11812952 | 09:30 |
cjwatson | I'll check out exactly what dh_python2 etc. causes to happen, to make sure it matches | 09:31 |
pitti | thanks! | 09:31 |
cjwatson | we might want to trigger a fake python runtime update or something rather than calling pycompile directly | 09:32 |
pitti | oh, that indeed seems easier | 09:33 |
pitti | interesting that it doesn't seem to differ between pysupport, pycentral, and dh_python2 | 09:33 |
pitti | oh, wait | 09:34 |
cjwatson | those three have quite different .rtinstall files | 09:34 |
pitti | it only seems to rebuild its own pycs, not for all python-* packages | 09:34 |
cjwatson | for hook in /usr/share/python/runtime.d/*.rtinstall; do | 09:34 |
cjwatson | [ -x $hook ] || continue | 09:34 |
cjwatson | $hook rtinstall python2.7 "$2" "$version" | 09:34 |
cjwatson | done | 09:34 |
cjwatson | is basically what python does to byte-compile stuff | 09:34 |
cjwatson | I'll check safety with doko | 09:36 |

lag | Why do random applications (browser, instant messenger etc) keep greying out and locking up? | 10:24 |
pitti | this often happens if you do heavy I/O, such as copying big files, rsyncing cd images, etc. | 10:27 |
pitti | if not, then the browser/IM is just busy (which is a bug, as it shoudln't stop responding to the UI) | 10:28 |
lag | pitti: The browser is doing nothing, but has locked | 10:28 |
lag | pitti: When the IM locked up, it was doing nothing | 10:29 |
lag | pitti: They just become unresponsive and lock | 10:29 |
pitti | bugs | 10:29 |
lag | pitti: My mail client does the same, again whilst doing nothing | 10:29 |
pitti | it's not "desired behaviour" of course | 10:29 |
lag | pitti: Must be a Ubuntu bug, can't be all these different applications | 10:30 |
cjwatson | check syslog in case you have a disk device that's returning I/O errors | 10:35 |
ogra_ | might be a hint from your system that you should probably stop doing nothing then :P | 10:37 |
micahg | I get it when I have incredibly high i/o wait | 10:38 |

lag | ogra_: My terminal is extremely busy (but it's not failing) | 10:40 |
pitti | micahg: the problem with Linux is unfortunately that merely doing an rsync or copying 2 GB around already counts as "incredibly high" :( | 10:41 |

apw | lag, i find i get the same greying with no load, things grey out one by one, resolving when an OSD message finally spits out | 10:42 |
micahg | lag: we don't tolerate insults here | 10:42 |
lag | micahg: ogra is a good friend of mine - he knows I was joking | 10:42 |
apw | somehow they cause a log jam which can even affect gnome-terminal ... which makes no sense, but its happened often enough that i've mannaged to killall the notifier to confirm its definatly that thats causing the blockage | 10:43 |
lag | apw: I am used to momentary greying out, but when these go, they are perm and the only way I can resolve is to kill the app | 10:43 |
apw | and its always for me an xchat OSD thats trying to display | 10:43 |
lag | apw: I haven't seen an OSD message for ages | 10:43 |
lag | apw: Let me try | 10:44 |
apw | how long is perm, i see minutes of grey during which a restart of notify-osd fixes it | 10:44 |
psurbhi | jhunt, I am trying to stop a job on "stopped udev" | 10:44 |
apw | not that anyone believes me | 10:44 |
psurbhi | but this never happens | 10:44 |
apw | psurbhi, udev runs all the time doesn't it? | 10:44 |
psurbhi | so, I put post-stop script ; echo "in post stop"; end script | 10:44 |
cjwatson | udev doesn't stop (except on shutdown) | 10:44 |
psurbhi | and i cant see that either | 10:44 |
psurbhi | cjwatson | 10:44 |
psurbhi | exactly | 10:44 |
lag | apw: As long as I am patient enough to leave it - I need my browser and mail client, so I guess I've left it for 10-15 mins | 10:45 |
psurbhi | but i want to do something similar in the initramfs | 10:45 |
psurbhi | and somehow i cant see udev in the "stopped" case | 10:45 |
psurbhi | it always reaches "stopping" and thats it | 10:45 |
cjwatson | ah, I'll leave you alone then, not sure what that would be | 10:45 |
psurbhi | i want to stop upstart-udev job on "stopped" udev | 10:45 |
psurbhi | and then run the pivot command | 10:45 |
psurbhi | right now, to achieve the same effect | 10:46 |
psurbhi | i am stopping the upstart-udev-bridge | 10:46 |
lag | cjwatson: Just checked syslog, looks like I have problems! | 10:46 |
psurbhi | on stopping udev | 10:46 |
cjwatson | pitti: could you ack my debian-installer/lucid-proposed upload, please? | 10:46 |
psurbhi | and then in the post-stop of upstart-udev-bridge, i execute kill all udev | 10:46 |
cjwatson | lag: busted disk? | 10:46 |
cjwatson | lag: past time to check those backups :) | 10:46 |
lag | cjwatson: Seemingly: https://pastebin.canonical.com/48644/ | 10:47 |
psurbhi | jhunt ^^ | 10:47 |
pitti | cjwatson: diff looks fine, accepted | 10:47 |
lag | cjwatson: I'm all backed up ;) | 10:47 |
cjwatson | pitti: ta | 10:47 |
psurbhi | i was wondering if anyone has seen that udev really stops on shutdown | 10:47 |
psurbhi | atleast? | 10:47 |
jhunt | psurbhi: how do you know it only reaches stopping? | 10:47 |
psurbhi | because i have put echos in the scripts | 10:47 |
cjwatson | oh good, it's so rare that I say that and it's actually true | 10:47 |
pitti | lag: doesn't seem related at all to IO errors; it just says that your keyboard has unknown keys | 10:47 |
psurbhi | i.e post-stop script | 10:47 |
psurbhi | and pre-stop script | 10:47 |
jhunt | psurbhi: where are the echoes going? | 10:48 |
psurbhi | and also, the job that should execute on stopped | 10:48 |
psurbhi | never gets executed | 10:48 |
psurbhi | running upstart in --debug mode | 10:48 |
psurbhi | never shows udev in the "stopped" state | 10:48 |
pitti | lag: by any chance, does the blocking start when you press a particular key? | 10:48 |
psurbhi | it says "stopping" udev | 10:48 |
cjwatson | lag: yeah, those don't look like serious disk problems to me either | 10:48 |
psurbhi | but i did not see anything more than that | 10:48 |
pitti | lag: we had that problem with many Samsung laptops, they have a BIOS bug which needs to be worked around | 10:48 |
cjwatson | some filesystem consistency problems, but not I/O | 10:49 |
psurbhi | jhunt? | 10:49 |
pitti | lag: try pressing Ctrl+Alt+F1, then Ctrl+Alt+F7 (or F8, whatever gets you back to the graphical desktop), and check whether it's gone | 10:49 |
psurbhi | i did not get the question - where are the echoes going | 10:49 |
psurbhi | sorry | 10:49 |
pitti | lag: then find out whether pressing that magic Fn+something key triggers it | 10:49 |
lag | pitti: I was referring to the 1587 ext2 errors I have in there | 10:49 |

lag | Right, I'm off to fsck | 10:52 |
apw | heres hoping its your git trees, as most files in there are regenerrable :) | 10:52 |
lag | apw: /home/lag/projects are mounted separately ;) | 10:53 |
psurbhi | jhunt, i can see the echoes in the pre-stop scripts for mountall.conf and udevd.conf | 10:54 |
psurbhi | but i cant see the echoes in the post-stop script | 10:54 |
jhunt | psurbhi: I've just done a test and I have a simple job which successfully starts on "stopping udev". | 10:55 |
psurbhi | jhunt - yes that works | 10:55 |
psurbhi | but can you try starts on "stopped udev" | 10:55 |
psurbhi | the stopping clause works | 10:55 |
psurbhi | but the "stopped" doesnt for me | 10:55 |
jhunt | psurbhi: I think just aren't seeing the messages - rsyslog stops on the same condition as udev - try logging to the console/serial device | 10:56 |
psurbhi | jhunt, the job does not start too | 10:56 |
psurbhi | :-/ | 10:56 |
psurbhi | can you please let me know if the job starts on "stopped udev" ? for you? | 10:56 |
apw | psurbhi, how can you tell if its not started if the logging output is not logged> | 10:56 |
psurbhi | jhunt, yes, i am getting the messages on the serial console | 10:56 |
psurbhi | apw, you could stop the logging on "stopped udev" | 10:57 |
psurbhi | instead of "stopping udev" | 10:57 |
jhunt | works for stopped udev too...? | 10:57 |
apw | still too late though right as your job also starts then | 10:57 |
psurbhi | jhunt, does your job work? | 10:57 |
psurbhi | apw, then you can stop logging after stopping your test-job | 10:57 |
jhunt | psurbhi: it runs, so yes :) | 10:57 |
psurbhi | ok! | 10:57 |
psurbhi | jhunt, thanks | 10:58 |
psurbhi | i will probably send you the initramfs | 10:58 |
psurbhi | can you please let me know what you think is wrong in there? | 10:58 |
jhunt | psurbhi: can you show me your .conf file? | 10:58 |
apw | i had to log directly to /dev/.foo i think the only reliable way to get diagnostics, when i was playing with the vesafb stuff | 10:58 |
psurbhi | yes, exactly | 10:58 |
jhunt | psurbhi: (from other channel) - yes, lets take this offline now... | 10:59 |
cjwatson | yeah, I've always logged to /dev/.initramfs/<something> when trying to debug this kind of thing | 10:59 |

cnd | or should I upload now, and just retry builds as necessary? | 13:25 |
cjwatson | it doesn't *hugely* matter; if you don't hold off, you'll have to retry | 13:25 |
cjwatson | I wouldn't worry too much about it | 13:25 |
cjwatson | if you have relevant upload privileges, retrying isn't too much of a hassle | 13:25 |

YokoZar | What's the best way to have a package build with gcc 4.4 on Lucid, 4.5 on maverick (whose default is 4.4), and 4.5 on natty? | 13:35 |
directhex | a big ol' conditional in debian/rules | 13:37 |
* Laney conditions directhex goooooooooood | 13:37 | |
YokoZar | directhex: so I take it we don't provide some sort of gcc-latest symlink? | 13:38 |
directhex | YokoZar, nafaik, just gcc as a symlink to the default | 13:39 |
Daviey | Anyone else noticed archive builds failing for odd reasons atm? | 13:40 |
=== psurbhi_ is now known as psurbhi | ||
cjwatson | Daviey: see discussion with cnd above, perhaps | 13:41 |
cjwatson | I'm just trying to pinpoint it with a livefs build here, since the logs are awkwardly unhelpful (failure distant from cause) | 13:41 |
directhex | what's the deal with powerpc right now? buildds seem backed up | 13:41 |
Daviey | cjwatson: ok, thanks | 13:41 |
cjwatson | it would probably help if dpkg rejected packages with syntactically invalid triggers files at unpack time rather than later | 13:42 |
cjwatson | Daviey: however, can you point to a build log to make sure we're looking at the same thing? | 13:42 |
Daviey | https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cvs/2:1.12.13+real-5ubuntu1/+build/2575050 | 13:42 |
Daviey | cjwatson: that is the second build attempt | 13:42 |
Daviey | first one failed for "sh: gcc: not found" | 13:43 |
Daviey | sadly, i didn't save the log | 13:43 |
cjwatson | "sh: gcc: not found" appears in lots of build logs due to something being run in the wrong chroot, and isn't normally fatal | 13:43 |
Daviey | I also saw one of slangasek's builds fail a few hours ago, but worked locally here - so hit rebuild and it worked. | 13:43 |
Daviey | (seeing this on i386 and amd64) | 13:44 |
cjwatson | anyway, yeah, that's the same thing that I'm looking at | 13:44 |
cjwatson | though perhaps a livefs build isn't the most efficient way to do it, but I might as well wait for it now ... | 13:45 |

cjwatson | Daviey,cnd: new dpkg should fix it | 15:56 |
cjwatson | cnd: no | 15:56 |
cjwatson | I couldn't see a reported bug anywhere particularly obvious, so just fixed it | 15:56 |

cjwatson | trigdeferred.c was out of date in the same way in the old version too | 15:57 |
cjwatson | and the changes to trigcmd.c that tickled it were in the old version | 15:57 |

Ampelbein | hi! I'm trying to find the cause for a FTBFS on current oneiric, the package in question is gridsite. This is the log: http://paste.ubuntu.com/628557/ - The package builds fine on debian/unstable. Can someone give any hints on what might be wrong? | 20:19 |
micahg | Ampelbein: looks like an --as-needed failure | 20:22 |
slangasek | I don't see how | 20:23 |
slangasek | these are from libcrypto, which is on the commandline | 20:23 |
slangasek | btw, someone seems to have typoed '-D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE' :) | 20:23 |
Ampelbein | micahg: hmm, you are right. with -Wl,--no-as-needed it works... but... why? | 20:24 |
micahg | Ampelbein: with --as-needed order of the arguments matter, http://wiki.debian.org/ToolChain/DSOLinking#Only_link_with_needed_libraries | 20:25 |
slangasek | true, but -lgridsite -lssl -lcrypto is the correct order :) | 20:25 |
slangasek | so why does *this* fail? | 20:26 |
slangasek | oh, no | 20:26 |
slangasek | it's that gridsite-storage.c doesn't need libcrypto, libgridsite.so does | 20:26 |
slangasek | so -lcrypto needs to be passed when linking *libgridsite.so* | 20:26 |
slangasek | it's a mislinked library, which gets exposed when trying to link against it | 20:27 |
slangasek | (and also, btw, in a dpkg-shlibdeps warning that's been in the log output for several years before this I'm sure) | 20:27 |
slangasek | oh, it's an entirely new package, so scratch the "several years" part :-) | 20:28 |
Ampelbein | slangasek: I was about to say that it never actually built in ubuntu ;-) | 20:28 |
Ampelbein | micahg, slangasek: thank you, with your help I found the error. | 20:29 |
Ampelbein | I think | 20:29 |
=== yofel_ is now known as yofel | ||
Ampelbein | ok, yes. so the root of the problem was that http://paste.ubuntu.com/628565/ made libgridsite.so not correctly linked with crypto (and xml2). adding -lcrypto and -lxml2 AFTER the objects made the compile succeed. Thanks again micahg and slangasek! | 20:36 |
slangasek | sure :) | 20:36 |
Daviey | slangasek: I've seen you mention this a few times, so i wanted to clarify something.. regarding calling an upstart reload... I understand in package maintainer scripts should invoke-rc.d.. but what about debian/*logrotate scripts? | 20:56 |
Daviey | Is it ok for them to call "reload" directly? | 20:56 |
slangasek | Daviey: it's ok, but it does increase the delta with Debian | 20:57 |
slangasek | Daviey: '/etc/init.d/$service reload' should do the same thing in both Debian and Ubuntu, with an insignificant increased overhead for Ubuntu | 20:58 |
Daviey | slangasek: TBH.. one line change in a fairly hunky delta anyway, doesn't make me cry so much :) | 20:58 |
slangasek | yeah... general principle though :) | 20:58 |
smoser | you should drop that change though | 20:58 |
smoser | yeah. | 20:58 |
smoser | i just assumed that 'reload' wasn't going to do anything for upstart... or that there was some other reason that it was like it was. | 20:58 |
Daviey | smoser: it's your merge proposal! | 20:58 |
smoser | yes, and i will admit that i'm wrong. | 20:59 |
smoser | or that i should have dropped that. | 20:59 |
Daviey | smoser: Oh no, i wasn't pointing fingers. | 20:59 |
smoser | but i dont tihnk it ever should have been added. | 20:59 |
Daviey | smoser, agreed - but there is clearly some uncertainity about handling upstart in scripts. | 20:59 |
smoser | i can modify my proposal if you want | 21:00 |
Daviey | So the original delta introduction wasn't evil either. | 21:00 |
smoser | that was one of the only things that wasn't straight forward to me. | 21:00 |
Daviey | smoser: I don't really care TBH.. both work, and 1 line isn't a big deal.. especially as it's not totally /wrong/ | 21:01 |
smoser | if we drop it, and theres no regression due to it, then the next person wont be confused or have to think about it. | 21:01 |
Daviey | as we seem to have no clear policy on this | 21:01 |
smoser | well, the policy that is clear is "don't change debian just because" | 21:01 |
Daviey | heh | 21:01 |
Daviey | smoser: there are two uses of that, that changes everything... do it! | 21:02 |
smoser | Daviey, revision 43 pushed up | 21:06 |
Daviey | ta | 21:14 |
smoser | oh shoot | 21:15 |
smoser | yea... | 21:16 |
smoser | so Daviey , slangasek debian now has: | 21:16 |
smoser | invoke-rc.d rsyslog rotate | 21:16 |
smoser | not 'reload', but 'rotate'. | 21:16 |
slangasek | that's not a standard argument at all | 21:17 |
smoser | and they have a target for that in the init script that sends -HUP | 21:17 |
smoser | right | 21:17 |
smoser | so we have a delta in that file one way or another | 21:17 |
slangasek | do they have a different definition of 'reload' in the init script? | 21:17 |
smoser | and 'reload rsyslog' will send -HUP | 21:17 |
smoser | no, they dropped the 'reload' | 21:17 |
smoser | only 'force-reload' now, which does 'stop; start' | 21:18 |
slangasek | ... | 21:18 |
smoser | its in their changelogs too... i knew i had some reason for this to be left as it was | 21:18 |
Daviey | smoser: i thought i saw rotate, i was *just* checking that | 21:18 |
smoser | rotate was in the merged stuff from debian | 21:19 |
smoser | it changed between that. | 21:19 |
smoser | so then... i ask slangasek, i think. we're back to having a choice between: | 21:19 |
smoser | reload rsyslog | 21:19 |
smoser | or | 21:19 |
smoser | invoke-rc.d rsyslog reload | 21:20 |
smoser | where the invoke-rc.d path is still delta from debian | 21:20 |
slangasek | smoser: I think the init script should ditch this silly non-standard option, and the logrotate script should call 'kill -HUP $(cat /var/run/rsyslogd.pid)' directly in Debian, which would happen to work right in Ubuntu as well | 21:20 |
slangasek | and we should never call invoke-rc.d from logrotate scripts | 21:21 |
Daviey | smoser: sounds to me that leaving it as it was makes better sense, and raising a debian bug suggesting reload does a -HUP :) | 21:21 |
Daviey | slangasek: ok? why never call invoke-rc.d from logrotate scripts? | 21:21 |
slangasek | Daviey: the reason not to do a HUP with reload in the init script is that it doesn't actually reload the configs, so doesn't fit the definition of the target (Debian bug #580897, Policy 9.3.2) | 21:22 |
ubottu | Debian bug 580897 in rsyslog "rsyslog: doesn't update all rules on reload" [Normal,Fixed] http://bugs.debian.org/580897 | 21:22 |
slangasek | Daviey: because invoke-rc.d is used to apply a local admin policy on whether maintainer scripts are allowed to start and stop services, which is entirely irrelevant to the question of whether a running daemon needs to reopen logfiles after rotation | 21:23 |
slangasek | at best, invoke-rc.d is a no-op; at worst it causes you to lose your log data | 21:23 |
Daviey | *sigh* | 21:23 |
smoser | ok. | 21:23 |
smoser | i'll push up the revert of that. | 21:23 |
slangasek | no-op compared to direct invocation of the init script, I mean | 21:24 |
Daviey | slangasek: yeah, thanks for that | 21:25 |
