[05:04] <yooozy_> hey
[13:11] <evfool> ping mvo
[13:33] <mvo> hey evfool
[13:35] <evfool> mvo: sorry for bugging you, but can't start software-properties-gtk since the dbus part has been added on 07-11, I get a ServiceUnkown for the dbus service
[13:35] <evfool> mvo: http://paste.ubuntu.com/663410/
[13:36] <mvo> evfool: hm, thats odd, it should be a auto-start sercice
[13:36] <mvo> service even
[13:45] <mvo> evfool: will it work if you start the backend daemon by hand? do you ahve software-properties-common installed?
[13:53] <evfool> mvo: I do have s-p-c installed, and don't know how to start a backend daemon
[13:57] <mvo> evfool: could you please install it? its a bit odd as software-properties-common is a dependencies of sofware-properties-gtk
[13:57] <evfool> mvo: I have software-properties-common installed
[13:57] <mvo> oh, sorry
[13:58] <mvo> evfool: "sudo /usr/lib/software-properties/software-properties-dbus --debug
[13:58] <mvo> " in a termianla
[13:58] <mvo> evfool: what does that output for you?
[14:01] <evfool> mvo: not allowed to connect due to security policies, http://paste.ubuntu.com/663425/
[14:05] <mvo> evfool: what does /etc/dbus-1/system.d/com.ubuntu.SoftwareProperties.conf say? do you have this file?
[14:06] <evfool> mvo: yes, I have it, http://paste.ubuntu.com/663430/
[14:07] <mvo> evfool: that is confusing, so the file looks correct and yet it won't start with sudo
[14:09] <evfool> mvo: ok, I'll try to figure it out, just thought it's something really obvious I don't know about
[14:09] <evfool> thank anyway
[14:09] <evfool> *thanks
[14:22] <bdmurray> mvo: as I was looking at the duplicate signatures I noticed a couple that might be worth blocking for bug reporting
[14:24] <mvo> evfool: at leat to me its not at all obvious, and I don't remember having heard about many more
[14:24] <mvo> bdmurray: aha, great. which ones?
[14:24] <mvo> evfool: please keep me updated on this!
[14:24] <bdmurray> mvo: 'failed to stat .* Input/output error'
[14:24] <evfool> mvo: I will, if I'll find something
[14:25] <mvo> thanks evfool
[14:25] <mvo> bdmurray: indeed
[14:25] <bdmurray> mvo: also 'dpkg-split:.*Input/output error'
[14:26] <bdmurray> mvo: actually dpkg-divert too - but the bugs with those are old so they might not be used anymore?
[14:30] <mvo> at least dpkg-divert is definetly still in use
[14:32] <bdmurray> mvo: okay, thanks
[14:36] <mvo> evfool: thanks for your update-manager branch btw!
[14:37] <evfool> mvo: just my daily 0.01$ contrib to Ubuntu :)
[14:38] <mvo> \o/
[15:10] <kelemengabor> bdmurray: hi, do you have a few minutes to talk about organizing a bug day for Ubuntu Translations? I volunteered after UDS to do one (for today), but I had no time last week to start. So, perhaps next week?
[15:13] <kelemengabor> mvo: hi, do you have a minute to take a look at bug #786504 ?
[15:13] <ubot4> Launchpad bug 786504 in ubuntu-translations (and 1 other project) "Some strings are not translatable in app-install-data-ubuntu (affects: 1) (heat: 6)" [Low,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/786504
[15:13] <mvo> kelemengabor: absolutely
[15:14] <kelemengabor> mvo: thanks!
[15:31] <mvo> kelemengabor: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-dev/app-install-data-ubuntu/ubuntu/revision/693 - looks better this time, sorry for the blunder
[15:34] <kelemengabor> mvo: indeed, thanks :)
[15:38] <mvo> thank you
[18:54] <bdmurray> mvo_: is bug 819571 an issue for update-manager?
[18:54] <ubot4> Launchpad bug 819571 in ubuntu-meta (Ubuntu) "package ubuntu-desktop 1.235 failed to install/upgrade: ErrorMessage: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured (affects: 3) (dups: 2) (heat: 22)" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/819571
[19:49] <mvo_> bdmurray: that is a apt bug :/
[19:50] <mvo_> bdmurray: well, most likely at least, I have a look at the logs tomorrow
[19:50] <bdmurray> mvo_: okay, thanks!
[21:23] <AddJim> Hi folks! Never been in here before. =)
[22:01] <hggdh> hello AddJim
[22:01] <AddJim> Hihi!
[22:02] <AddJim> Question, there is an extant patch applied to one package that would be great to be applied to another package… who could make that happen? (crash fix in linux-ec2 that needs to be in the linux-server/linux-generic packages)
[22:03] <AddJim> I can patch it myself but since it wouldn't go into the repos I'd have to patch every release manually. =(
[22:08] <charlie-tca> AddJim: Might be better asked in #ubuntu-kernel. We triage the bugs, they fix them
[22:09] <AddJim> Ohhh okay
[22:09] <AddJim> I opened a bug for it
[22:09] <AddJim> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/824304
[22:09] <ubot4> Launchpad bug 824304 in linux (Ubuntu) "Divide by zero in find_busiest_group/update_sg_lb_stats (on physical hardware) (affects: 1) (heat: 6)" [Undecided,New]
[22:09] <charlie-tca> That works too
[22:10] <AddJim> It causes our systems to die with complete kernel death after approx 200 days uptime. =(
[22:10] <AddJim> Scared the crap out of us when all our production servers started dying around the same time.
[22:11] <AddJim> If we can't get it fixed we're coming up with a schedule for periodic reboots. =/
[22:11] <AddJim> There's a bug for it at kernel.org, and it's been open for a whole year, hasn't been closed so I think there's been no fix in the vanilla kernel unless it got quietly fixed. =/
[22:12] <AddJim> Either way it's def still in the Lucid kernel except for the patch submitted to linux-ec2
[22:12] <dtchen> right, https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16991
[22:12] <AddJim> I think it's because the most common enviro it presents itself in is ec2.
[22:12] <ubot4> bugzilla.kernel.org bug 16991 in Scheduler "divide by zero bug in find_busiest_group (actually inlined update_sg_lb_stats )" [Blocking,New]
[22:14] <AddJim> But it definitely occurs on physical hardware, all our Westmere boxes are showing it (Supermicro X8* mobos)
[22:14] <AddJim> I couldn't find a way to promote the bug on launchpad to other packages, only to other projects, so I opened a new one.
[22:18] <AddJim> It almost killed us because all our redundant servers started dying around the same time, but fortunately we were able to bring some of them up before their backups died.
[22:22] <AddJim> Thanks guys for any help you can provide. =)
[23:45] <Thorwars> hola
[23:46] <Thorwars> I am wondering if I should report a bug or ask for assistance... Using Ubuntu 11.04 Server with Desktop GUI installed

[23:50] <Thorwars> Issue is after booting it asks for my Passphrase which I type in but after that I get Incorrect metadata area header No volume groups found
