stgraberhmm, either my brain stopped working or that kubuntu installer crash doesn't make sense00:11
stgraberit's basically complaining of a missing attribute of a TreeItem instance but that attribute is set in its constructor...00:12
stgraberScottK: I'm surprised jibel and charlie-tca could reproduce the bug that easily. I had it happen here once but the stack trace doesn't make sense (as I said before) and I've been playing with the manual partitioner for 5 minutes now without a single crash00:29
stgraberScottK: at least I found a bug in the crash handler that was making it crash, so at least with the next upload when it crashes we should get a proper trace :)00:30
skaetrebuilding ubuntu desktop,  edubuntu dvd, ubuntu dvd, ubuntu alternate started.   Anything else to add to queue.01:30
skaet?01:30
holsteinskaet: let me ask about ubuntustudio...01:30
holsteinskaet: NM... i wont get anyone who knows in a timely manner :.01:31
stgraberskaet: do you have an ETA for edubuntu? (wondering if I test them tonight or first thing tomorrow morning)01:32
skaetstgraber,  I'm estimating about 1.5-2 hrs for them popping out.01:32
skaetProbably best early tomorrow as its getting late for you there?01:33
* skaet not sure if stgraber is night or morning person. ;)01:33
stgraberI'm definitely not a morning person :) I should at least have time to zsync them and maybe start testing then01:33
skaetok, from side band,  looks like ScottK wants Kubuntu with parted fix,  adding those to the list as well.01:34
skaetstgraber - will ping you directly as soon as they emerge then.01:34
stgraberthanks01:34
skaetnp01:34
skaetcharlie-tca, do you want a respin with the parted fix picked up?01:40
ScottKDo we get stgraber's Ubiquity change too?01:41
stgraberScottK: the crash handler for the kde installer? haven't released a new ubiquity for that. Was hoping to find the reason for the other crash, though I guess I'll need to get barry on that as it seems to be some python weirdness01:42
ScottKOK.01:42
ScottKOnce we have something to test we can update Ubiquity from a live session even if it's not on the CD.01:43
stgraberfixing the crash handler would only let us get tracebacks easily but wouldn't fix any crash, don't think it's worth waiting for01:43
ScottKOK.01:43
stgraberyep. Hopefully someone will have a clue of what's wrong and we'll have something to test tomorrow.01:43
stgraberI also asked again in the bug report for anyone who can reproduce the issue reliably. That'd help a lot for debugging...01:44
ScottLskaet, i think charlie-tca already asked for a respin on ubuntu studio amd6401:44
ScottLi would presume the same problem would affect i386 as well01:44
skaetScottL,  yup, addint it to the list01:44
skaetwhat about Xubuntu though?01:44
ScottLskaet, thank you :)01:44
ScottLthat i can't answer about, although the backscroll says something01:45
* skaet goes back and sees what she's missed....01:45
ScottKskaet: It'd be useful to get an idea of where this change might affect things.  I probably won't have time to redo 100% of the testing we did today, so I need to know where to focus.01:45
ScottKslangasek: ^^^ I'd appreciate suggestions?01:45
skaetScottK, installation with default partioning, a manual partitioning test - should be done at a minimum.   Best on a powerpc and also on regular is my estimate,  but will let slangasek comment further ;)  (and educate me too)01:47
ScottKI don't anticipate releasing PPC for Kubuntu this milestone.01:48
skaetmy bad01:48
ScottK(usual Kubuntu PPC tester has a dead machine ATM)01:48
skaetsorry,  worked on mac's when they were only powerpc,  so brain slip01:48
skaetmeant to say on a mac.01:48
skaets/Best on a powerpc/Best on a mac/01:49
ScottKK01:49
ScottKNot sure I have a Mac tester, but we can at least do some regression testing with other hardware.01:52
infinityJust go to a mall, armed with a CD, and flog a "genius" until they let you use one of the floor models.01:52
infinityThe flogging the genius part is really worth the effort.01:53
ScottLskaet, these images that are being rebuilt are the QA images, correct?01:53
skaetScottL,  yes,  I'll post them on the iso tracker as soon as they emerge.01:54
* skaet likes infinity solution to testing Macs , ;)01:55
charlie-tcareading the backlog01:57
charlie-tcajust got back01:57
charlie-tcaI don't want any respin I don't have to do01:57
charlie-tcaskaet: ^  ^01:57
charlie-tcaI don't know what the parted fix is.01:58
skaetcharlie-tca,  if people are installing on macs, its a rather nasty bug that corrupts the partions.01:58
infinity  * When creating a legacy MBR on Apple systems, only ever mark an existing01:59
infinity    partition as a fake protective partition if it is the first partition01:59
infinity    and it starts at LBA 1, otherwise GRUB and the Linux kernel respectively01:59
infinity    will fail to treat the disk as GPT; if there is no partition fitting01:59
infinity    these criteria, then fall back to creating a fake protective partition01:59
infinity    (LP: #837681).01:59
skaetthanks infinity,  was just going to pull that ;)01:59
charlie-tcaso, that affects any mac, not just the mac specific images?02:00
skaetcharlie-tca,  yeah that's what cjwatson indicated to me when I hoped it was just mac specific images...02:01
charlie-tcaThat's going to delay beta1 until tomorrow night sometime02:01
charlie-tcaI can't get all the images tested again tonight02:01
infinityThe mac-specific images are rather poorly-named, to be fair.02:01
skaetcharlie-tca,  probably doing spot tests is appropriate.  Change is limited in scope.02:02
skaetbasically making sure no regressions on the i386, amd64 for the partitioning tests is appropriate.02:02
charlie-tcaI suppose we should re-spin then. If I don't, mac users are screwed02:03
skaetcharlie-tca,  I'll add them to the queue for tonights builds.   And then you can decide in the morning with pitti whether to add them to the tester or not.02:05
charlie-tcaokay02:05
charlie-tcaIf they build and I can run them in the morning, I will add them. I still have to do the release notes, too02:08
skaetcharlie-tca that seems reasonable.  Feel free to add to release notes now. ;)02:09
charlie-tcaYeah, if I can get my eyes to focus i sure will02:09
skaetcharlie-tca, understood.  Sleep instead, if that will help.   There will be synch time in the morning.02:11
charlie-tcaOkay, thanks02:11
ScottKcharlie-tca: I don't intend to fully retest Kubuntu.  I mostly want to do some regression testing to make sure the common partitioning scenarios work.02:34
ScottKFor a Beta, I think that's OK.02:34
charlie-tcaThanks. I will try to do that too.02:34

charlie-tcaI updated them, anyway03:15
skaetThank you charlie-tca.  :)   Will make it easier tomorrow. :)03:25
charlie-tcayw03:25
skaetstgraber, highvoltage,  refreshed Edubuntu DVD's just posted to the tracker.  2011090103:50
skaetcharlie-tca, xubuntu alternate is off the builder, and sitting in the dailies.   Let me or pitti know if you want it posted.03:54
stgraberskaet: cool, thanks04:02
infinityIs anyone awake enough to do more emergency upload/publish/respin cycles tonight, or should I relinquish our manual buildds back to auto for the night?04:14
stgraberI'm not planning on uploading anything :)04:14
stgraberpitti should show up in a few minutes though04:14
infinityI mostly just want to give powerpc a chance to catch up again.04:16
infinityI'm sure pitti can have adare halted again if he needs it.04:16
infinitypitti: If you need to do an emergency kill on a buildd to push something through, try to make sure it's not insighttoolkit on ross.  That's been building for half a day, would be a shame to kill it now. :)04:17
slangasekScottL: the ubuntustudio amd64 respin earlier was for a broken CD, not related to pulling in any updates, fwiw - not that this precludes respinning to get those package updates04:42
slangasekScottK: sorry, not sure which change it is you're talking about retesting for - the parted one?04:44
slangasekthe change is deep in the GPT-handling code.. I don't think there's a need for rigorous testing outside of machines that use GPT04:45
skaetinifinity, relinquish away04:55
* skaet was in other window...04:56
skaetUbuntu DVD posted (20110901)05:00
skaetDaviey, I tried building ubuntu server during the rebuilds tonight, and it is still crashing the build.   Just in case you see the logs.05:04
pittiGood morning05:24
pittiinfinity: builder killing> noted; still catching up with backscroll to see whether something needs a rebuild05:28
pitticharlie-tca: hey05:29
pitticharlie-tca: should we post/use the new xubuntu alternate?05:30
pittiI'm not quite sure why xubuntu desktop wasn't rebuilt for the same reason05:31
pittiah, building05:31
skaetgood morning pitti05:32
skaetpad should be fairly current05:32
skaetcharlie-tca wasn't sure if they wanted to pick up the new images or not.  Alternate is built,  and livecd is about to build.05:32
skaet(after kubuntu finishes)05:33
skaetsequence currently in flight is on the pad05:33
pittiI'll re-pre-publish kubuntu alternate and the ubuntu desktop/alternate05:35
pittiso that they get a few hours to rsync into the world05:35
skaetpitti,  sounds good.05:36
* skaet notes (and wants to be reminded) we probably need to put something into the checklist about this to do day -1.05:36
pittiskaet: "this"?05:37
pittiskaet: pre-publishing is there already05:37
skaetpitti,  arrgh.  did it again.   s/this/prepublishing/05:37
pittithat's on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BetaProcess already05:37
skaetyup you're right.05:38
skaetsomehow glossed over it on my earlier read.05:38
* skaet needs to go to bed now ;)05:38
skaetpitti, is the pad fairly clear on what's left?05:38
pittiskaet: yes, it is05:38
pittiskaet: so in my day, I'll finish the posting to the tracker, coordinate about teh yay/nay with charlie-tca, give the tech notes an once-over again, and watch out for more trouble in general05:40
pittiskaet: I'll also prepare the publishing, so that we just need to press the "sync out" button05:40
pittiskaet: do you handle the announcement mail/web site update coordination in your tomorrow?05:41
skaetpitti, yup,  I'll handle the announce mail/web site update coord. Probably around my afternoon, after we get all the ok's and updates in the notes.05:42
skaetKubuntu CD 20110901 published05:43
infinitypitti: Not (pre-)publishing ubuntu-core for beta?05:43
skaetinfinity, its on cdimage, not release...  last I learned.05:43
infinityskaet: Oh, fair enough.  I never pay attention to simple/full politics.05:44
pittiinfinity: AFAIK we only put ubuntu/kubuntu desktop/alternate on releases.u.c.05:44
skaetinfinity, np.  Let us know if you hear different,  but cdimage should be ok for it.05:44
pitticore is fairly new, so there might not be a firm decision yet, but I think cdimage is fine05:44
infinitypitti: Yeah, cdimage is fine for now anyway.05:45
infinitypitti: If I hear differently before final release, it's not rocket science to move it to simple.05:45
skaetpitti, key bugs still need to be added to release notes, will take a pass when I wake up.  Expect jibel will add some too.05:46
pittiskaet: ah, I'll look into this, too05:46
pittiskaet: kubuntu desktop was right on time :) all necessary images pre-published now05:47
skaet:)05:56
skaetpitti, kubuntu dvd is about to emerge, after that xubuntu desktop.    Can you publish?   I'm thinking its time for me to turn go get some zzz.06:04
pittiskaet: yep, will do; sleep well!06:05
* infinity thinks it's probably bedtime.06:05
skaetThanks pitti!06:05
skaetSleep well infinity!   Thanks for your help today!06:05

rickspencer3good morning/evening all06:16
pittihey rickspencer306:16
rickspencer3hey pitti06:16
rickspencer3so I hear that >2TB bug got fixed by cjwatson last night?06:16
pittirickspencer3: right06:17
rickspencer3sweet06:17
pittiwe re-spin images, they need fast testing now06:17
rickspencer3pitti, was jibel able to confirm the bug fix in the test lab?06:17
pittirickspencer3: I don't think so, that happened in the middle of the night here06:18
rickspencer3ah06:18
pittithat'll need to happen today06:18
rickspencer3cool06:18
rickspencer3middle o fht enight here is middle of the ngiht for cjwatson too!06:18
rickspencer3I love that dude06:18
pitti+106:20
pittiI hope we won't see him before mid-day today06:20
pittiGrueMaster, ogra_: oh, the pad says to not publish omap for ubuntu; is that still current? I thought it works for netboot?06:27
jibelmorning07:07
pittibonjour jibel07:07
pittijibel: ca va?07:07
jibelmorgen pitti.07:08
jibelEs geht mir gut, danke schön. Und dir ?07:08
pittiun peu fatigué, mais bon07:09
pittijibel: we got a new set of images over night, for the GPT bug07:09
pittiI'm just doing my second test install on amd64 desktop, looking good so far07:10
pittibut I haven't tested GPT/mac07:10
jibelI'm syncing them.07:10
pittikubuntu DVDs posted07:12
pitticharlie-tca: xubuntu desktop/alternate 20110901 are now available; please let me know about whether or not to post them07:13
jibelpitti, rickspencer3 I'm not sure how I can test the GPT bug without a Mac.07:13
jibelchadadavis (the reporter) will test it when he's online (morning CEST)07:14
rickspencer3hi jibel07:14
jibelThe best I can do is mimic the test cjwatson did but I'll need his directions because I don't know how to fake an architecture.07:14
jibelHi rickspencer307:14
rickspencer3jibel, oh, I thought it impacted machines with >2TB harddrives as well07:14
rickspencer3and that you were able to replicate that in your lab07:14
jibelrickspencer3, no I've not been able to replicate.07:15
rickspencer3oh, bummer07:15
rickspencer3so, this is it a bit worrisome07:15
rickspencer3what if:07:15
rickspencer31. the bug is not fixed and/or07:15
rickspencer32. there are significant regressions07:15
pittiperhaps Chad can validate/07:16
pitti?07:16
rickspencer3is the last image sufficiently tested to release that one today?07:16
pittifor the regressions, we should re-exercise all the standard tests on MBR partitions07:16
pittirickspencer3: no, we are just starting with that07:16
jibelrickspencer3, I'll retest the partitioner for every case excepted the GPT bug that Chad will do.07:18
rickspencer3maybe we should get some macs in the testing lab?07:19
pittiI now tested "full disk" and manual, I'll do an autoresize test on amd64/desktop now07:20
pittiargh, I don't get autoresize offered, presumably my image is too small07:22
jibelLVM is good07:23
* pitti gets a bigger one, and will test the amd64 DVD one for the first install07:23
pittijibel: does it help at all if I do some desktop/DVD tests, or do you do them anyway with some scriptery?07:27
pittiwell, if for nothing else it'll help me being more confident in the respin :)07:27
jibelpitti, I'll do it. I'm currently running, alternate default install, resize on amd64/i386 , I'll start desktop as well in a minute.07:29
pittijibel: I mean, I'm already at it, just wondering if that will help you at all07:29
jibelpitti, the more eyes the better.07:30
pittiubuntu DVD amd64 live and install went fine07:48
pittistarting ubuntu desktop autoresize test08:01
cjwatsonjibel: I'm sceptical that it's worthwhile doing another faked-architecture test; I know that part works, what I need to have verified is that it actually works on a real Mac08:06
cjwatsonChad said he'd be around on CEST to give it a go08:07
cjwatson(I checked that last night before uploading)08:07
pittigood morning cj "hero" watson08:08
cjwatsonrickspencer3: I initially thought >2TB disks could be affected, but once I narrowed down the bug it was clear that it was localised to Macs (with any size of disk, although depending on the prior partitioning arrangements)08:08
rickspencer3hi cjwatson08:09
rickspencer3ok, that makes sense08:09
rickspencer3I asked pgraner about maybe getting some Macs for the testing lab08:10
pitticjwatson: the pad currently says to not publish amd64+mac; is that obsolete now that the gpt fix is in? i. e. should move from "new" to "pending testing"?08:10
pittis/from "new"/from "no"/08:10
cjwatsonIMO yes08:10
pittithat's what I thought, too; doing08:11
cjwatsonoh, must get back to the xorriso guy about the work needed to make the need for a separate amd64+mac image GO THE HELL AWAY08:11
cjwatsonthen people can stop being confused by it :)08:11
pittiautoresize worked well on amd64 desktop08:33
jibelubuntu alternate, dvd and desktop ok on amd64 and i386. tested entire disk, autoresize, manual, encrypted lvm.09:04
jibelnow testing ltsp09:05
pittibut it seems it's now being used for image publishing status as well10:08
infinityIndeed.10:08
ogra_pitti, apart from netboot omap3 all should be releasable10:09
pittianyway, it's just a release team tool, nothing like an official report10:09
pittiogra_: cool, thanks; I'll update it then10:11
ogra_ubuntu-core is missing tests on the isotracker though10:11
pittiogra_: ah, want me to create core i386/amd64 test cases?10:11
pitti(I'm not sure whether I'm able to, but I'll try)10:11
ogra_well, untar, chroot, apt-get install <something> ... is the testcase10:11
* ogra_ can do that quickly 10:11
infinityWhich is missing some steps. ;)10:11
pittiogra_: I mean, do you want test cases for i386/amd64 core in the tracker?10:11
infinity(like, have a valid resolv.conf)10:11
ogra_infinity, your baby ^^^10:11
infinityI'm not sure if I care that it's in the tracker, TBH, unless people want it there for paper trails.10:11
ogra_well, are we supposed to do milestones ?10:11
infinityI tested i386 and amd64 when I built them yesterday, for all that "testing" a minimal chroot is "making sure it contains binaries that don't all segv".10:11
ogra_then it should live on the tracker10:11
infinityYeah, probably.10:11
infinityThen I guess we need one or two silly/simple testcases.10:11
infinityHonestly, if the image builds, it works.10:11
ogra_pitti, add it then :)10:11
ogra_infinity, agreed10:11
infinity(Well, unless there's a hideous bug in some part of Essential, but then every image in the archive is broken)10:11
ogra_well, by the looks of it, we might have actual -core images next release10:11
ogra_they will  need bootability testing ...10:11
pittiI guess http://testcases.qa.ubuntu.com/Install/ARM/Core will work for i386/amd64 as well10:12
ogra_sure10:12
ogra_hmm, tobin actually tested it, why doesnt it show as done on the front page10:12
infinityThe paths on that page are wrong.10:13
infinityBut otherwise, that works.10:13
pittihmm10:13
pittiI added the two products10:13
pittiand actually also added two test cases, but they don't appear10:14
pittihang on10:14
infinityogra_: I'm trying to fight having bootable core images, TBH.  But we'll see where that goes.  I imagine some lively discussion at UDS about it all.10:14
pittiah, now10:14
pittiogra_: added10:14
infinityogra_: Once they're bootable, they need an installer to set things up, once they have an installer, they need... You see the problem.10:15
infinityExpectations go up when it's bootable, and bloat happens.10:15
ogra_infinity, you got me fully on your side, but i think some upper level wants a proof of concept :)10:17
ogra_(which would essentially be linaros nano image though, it actually is a minimal image with root login and some pre-configuration)10:17
infinityWell, I could turn core into a bootable image on ARM with some reuse of linaro tools (which I think is the sane way to go), but I'd like to generalise those tools a bit more first, and make them not ARM specific.10:18
infinityThen everyone can have their cake and eat it too.  And I'm not stuck generating "bootable rootfses" for the world, which is silly.10:18
infinityAnyhow, not really release-related, so I'll go to bed and stop babbling in the wrong channel. :P10:19
ogra_yeah, way to late for you anyway, go sleep :)10:24

astraljavaHey guys, where should I talk about beta1 QA testing?10:49
pittiastraljava: here, or in #ubuntu-testing10:49
astraljavapitti: Okay, thanks. I'll go on here, then. alternate install doesn't have auto-resize option for partitioning, yet on our ISO QA tracker that's a mandatory testcase.10:50
pittiastraljava: it's only offered if there is actually sufficient space available10:50
pittiastraljava: I just tested it successfully two hours ago on the current ubuntu desktop amd64 image10:51
astraljavapitti: So if I'm using vbox with a dedicated file as a hard drive partition?10:52
pittiit worked for me with a 10 GB image, but not with 6 (that's too small for two installations)10:52
astraljavaOkay, thanks!10:52
cjwatsonyep, that's a conditional test10:58
cjwatsonor should be10:58
cjwatsonthere are multiple reasons why you might not see it - insufficient space is just one of them10:58
cjwatsonbug 835961 looks fatal for the Lubuntu alternate images to me10:59
cjwatsonno gilir around though ...10:59
cjwatsonpitti: could you give me a TB second opinion on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lubuntu-meta/+bug/835961/comments/12 ?  I'm tempted to Just Do It and respin, but I'd like a check11:06
pittiI'm done with fixing grammar/spelling etc. on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/OneiricOcelot/TechnicalOverview, and updating it with noteworthy bugs from the ISO tracker11:06
pitticjwatson: looking11:06
pitticjwatson: fully agree, updated bug11:09
cjwatsonI think the roots of the libav* deps are gnome-mplayer and guvcview11:11
pitticjwatson: curious that the lubuntu desktop squashfs built; shouldn't it have the same problem, or don't we have a blacklist there?11:11
cjwatsonthey're recommends, so it's possible there's a bit of nondeterminism11:12
pittiah11:12
cjwatsonand yes, no blacklist for the squashfs anyway11:12
pittihttp://cdimage.ubuntu.com/lubuntu/daily/current/report.html doesn't show lubuntu-desktop as being uninstallable, just some extra packages11:12
cjwatsonthe blacklist is done at the ship-live level ...11:12
pittiah11:12
cjwatsonit's not ideal11:12
pittiright, it's in the desktop squashfs11:12
pittiso we already ship the lubuntu desktop images with it; might as well do the alternates, too11:13

charlie-tcapitti: Starting those tests on the new image. I will get back to you12:07
pitticharlie-tca: yay12:07
cjwatsonah, thanks, sorry I missed it12:09
pitticjwatson: you didn't, it just finished (I followed it on cdimage)12:10
pittifor some reason the lubuntu one took very long12:10
ScottKStill testing Kubuntu images, but so far, so good, so I don't anticipate any problems with pre-publishing.12:12
pittiScottK: I already did that (faster rsync if we need to do it again)12:13
ScottKOK.  Great.12:13
stgrabermorning13:13
pittihey stgraber, good morning13:19
jibelmorning stgraber13:21
stgraberok, finally testing Edubuntu. Should have both of them entirely tested in the next two hours13:22
charlie-tcapitti: I will accept the images dated today. I have tried to them, ran an install off each one, and they are working13:40
charlie-tcapitti: let's publish them13:40
pitticharlie-tca: nice, thanks!13:51
pitticharlie-tca: added to the tracker; can you please mark the tests you just ran?13:52
charlie-tcasure13:56
stgraberwould be great if someone could review that UIFe, bug 83882913:59
skaetgood afternoon pitti, cjwatson14:00
stgraberhmm, something seems wrong with the bot: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/edubuntu-artwork/+bug/83882914:00
stgraberupdated that UI freeze exception to target unity-2d instead of edubuntu-artwork as it's been suggested we should fix it there14:10
pittihey skaet14:13
skaetheya pitti14:13
skaetlooks like things are settling into the groove for a release,  mostly. ;)14:14
pittiyeah14:14
skaetnice work.  :)14:14
pittiskaet: at this point I'm confident in all images except for lubuntu alternate14:15
skaetany updates on lubuntu images14:15
skaetlol14:15
pittiskaet: it was rebuilt a few hours ago and now everything should be installable14:15
pittibut we haven't gotten any test yet14:15
skaetanyone spot gilir around?14:15
skaetor is there another member of the lubuntu community we can contact?14:16
pittidownloading lubuntu alternate amd6414:16
pittiI'll give it a whirl14:16
skaetthanks pitti14:16
pittiskaet: are you ok with me publishing the other images already, or do you still want to wait a bit?14:16
skaetI'll go start off a round of release notes scrubbing14:16
skaetpitti,  lets wait a bit for some of the north american testing results to trickle in.14:17
skaetwhen do you plan on EODing?14:17
* skaet assuming no crisis pops up, of course ;) 14:18
jibelpitti, skaet I'm testing lubuntu alternate i386|amd64 entire disk and resize14:23
pittiah, as always jibel is ahead of me :)14:23
pittiskaet: if all goes well, in about two hours14:25
* stgraber is filing a bunch of Chinese specific bugs... has been a while since I last tried it14:27
pittiskaet: I gave the TechOverview a review and did a couple of bug additions and language fixes14:30
pittiskaet: I think the "known issues" is reasonably complete now; I left out the tracker bugs for the crashes (apport/duping/bug patterns will handle those) and the ones which break images which we won't publish14:30
pittiskaet: btw, I updated the pad so that we'll publish amd64+mac and omap images14:32
skaetpitti, yup saw that ogra blessed them.   Some of those bugs look painful though, but its a limited audience, so ...14:34
pittiskaet: I'd like to update the tracker to disable the images that we won't publish (like omap/netboot), and retire the section in the pad14:34
pittiskaet: as publish-image-set will read it from the tracker14:34
pittiand it seems fairly redundant in the pad anyway14:35
pittiok?14:35
pitti(netboot in particular isn't published anyway, of course)14:35
pittibut e. g. kubuntu desktop amd64+mac14:36
pittiand kubuntu mobile14:36
ScottKpitti: I thought we were doing the +mac images now that the GPT bug is fixed?14:37
pitti    amd64+mac      NO per ScottK IRC14:37
ScottK(and it does have some testing)14:37
pittiScottK: fine with me14:37
ScottKThanks.14:37
ScottKMy mistake.14:37
pittiScottK: we'll still skip mobile and powerpc, right?14:37
pittiScottK: np14:37
ScottKYes14:37
ScottKAnd omap.14:38
pittiright14:38
pittiScottK: tracker doesn't have kubuntu omap4 either14:38
pittibut IIRC that failed as well due to libo (whatever pulled that in)14:39
skaetpitti,  go ahead with the disables14:39
pittiso, netboot armel disabled, the rest should be released14:39
* skaet goes off to do a review14:40
pittiskaet: ok, tracker updated and is consistent now, pad cleaned up14:40
skaetpitti:  :D  Thank you!14:41
pittithis isn't supposed to grow to a large form anyway, just for temporary scribbling like rebuild triggers14:41
skaetpitti,  it was a good idea though for communicating and summarizing with IRC.   I just added release images, since there was so much flux, and being able to get the expectations clear as to what was still needed was useful.14:43
pittiyep, that was fine14:43
* skaet likes the historical playback too. ;)14:43
pittiskaet: when do you think we can unfreeze? from my POV as soon as lubuntu alternate got tested?14:44
skaetpitti,  agreed.14:45
pittiskaet: there's a few high-profile bug fixes there, like ubiquitous unity-2d crashes, or jockey crash (failing to install nvidia), etc.14:45
skaetpitti,  yeah, getting them in will be good.14:46
stgraberyeah, the unity-2d ones are a bit annoying :) it's respawning fine but I get apport everytime I open a session post-install...14:46
jibellubuntu alternate looks good. it installs, boots, user can login and install updates. tested entire disk, resize, encrypted lvm on amd64 and i38614:46
skaetjibel,  excellent!   Thank you.14:46
stgraberI should have Edubuntu amd64 tested in the next 10 minutes14:47
skaetok pitti,  lets wait for stgraber, then open it.14:47
pittijibel: yay14:47
pittiskaet: roger14:48
skaet:)14:48
pittiskaet: then I'll start the publishing exercise, that'll also take me some 30 to 60 minutes to triple-check all the header html etc.14:48
skaetpitti,  sounds good. :)14:50
skaetDaviey,  Server section of the release notes is looking a little sparse,  you've got lots of neat stuff with this release.  Can you add something?14:57
ScottKIs OK if I start slowly accepting seeded packages from the queue?  The sooner we start, the less chance of a late Friday surprise.15:01
skaetScottK, can you take a pass at the Kubuntu part of the release notes?    Would like to get that wrapped.15:04
ScottKSure.15:04
slangasekstgraber: how's Edubuntu amd64 looking?15:04
skaetThanks!15:04
stgraberslangasek: testing ltsp now, should be done in a minute or so. Just spent a bit of time debugging the UI (for some reason I decided to try a Chinese install...)15:05
stgraberand so got into bug 771510 breaking everything :)15:05
ScottKskaet: Where am I looking?15:05
stgraberpitti, skaet, slangasek: Ok, Edubuntu amd64 works fine.15:06
slangasekScottK: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/OneiricOcelot/TechnicalOverview15:06
ScottKslangasek: Thanks.15:06
pittistgraber: yay15:06
skaethttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/OneiricOcelot/TechnicalOverview15:06
* skaet is just too slow typing today it seems ;)15:07
pittiskaet: ok, I think it's time to open the floodgates and time for pushing some bits out to the web :)15:07
skaetpitti,  make it so. :)15:07
* pitti pushes the buttons15:07
* skaet applauds (and holds breath), then crosses fingers. ;)15:08
infinity\o/15:09
ScottKDone.15:09
skaetThanks ScottK15:10
stgraberI guess we'll need to test Chinese installs a bit more often in the future ;) my final release test list for Edubuntu usually is English, French (for translation), German (also for translation), Chinese (to test ibus), Arabic (to test right-to-left) and Greek (quite a lot of Edubuntu users)15:11
skaetslangasek, I think we need to put something in about the new DVDs in the release notes.   Any opinions on where is best?15:12
pittiskaet: bug 77151015:12
pittithat affects all desktop/DVD images at least; not sure about alternate15:12
pittiworkaround is to install in English and use language-selector afterwards, or edit /etc/default/locale15:13
pittiso, release-note-y15:13
skaetpitti,  yup, at this stage release-note-y15:13
micahgI take it it's ok to do a security sync at this point?15:16
pittibeware of some queuebot flood15:16
pittimicahg: yes15:16
micahgpitti: thanks15:17
slangasekskaet: I'd be inclined to put it at the very top of new features - unless it fits under Ubuntu Desktop, in which case I would at least call it out with a subheading?15:17
skaetslangasek,   thanks.15:19
* skaet sees the floodgates opened.15:20
nigelbwoah.15:20
NCommanderskaet: eeek15:20
nigelbI thought there was some spam in here.15:20
pittiprepare for even more oneiric goodness15:20
skaetNCommander,  when did you ping last night?   didn't see it.15:22
cjwatsontrying another ubuntu-defaults-image build15:22
NCommanderskaet: I sent you a PM asking if you what you wanted to do with omap3 images.15:22
NCommanderer,omap3 netboot15:22
skaetNCommander,  not seeing it in my logs, and was worried about them.    Best to use #u-release channel at this time in the cycle.15:24
skaet:)15:24
NCommanderoops15:24
skaetNCommander, do you want any changes to the images we're publishing?15:25
* skaet we can still pull them from the publishing and site.15:26
pittiI'm not actually sure how to "publish" netboot15:26
NCommander^- GrueMaster - your call15:26
pittiit's not an iso or so, I think that requires some different magic15:26
cjwatsonmanual HTML, I'll do it15:27
GrueMasterI would recommend publishing it with notes.  I have had people ping me in other channels for it (and even email through LP).15:27
skaetGrueMaster,  do we need to add more cautions into the overview,  as well as the individual bugs you've noted already?15:28
GrueMasterI added something last night to the link you gave me.  I'll review it after our IRC meeting.15:29
GrueMasterI also will go through the bugs and document workarounds.15:29
skaetThanks GrueMaster,  sounds good.15:30
cjwatsonpitti: done, though the links won't work until after the next publisher run15:35
pittithanks15:35
slangasekanyone here know what's going on with ubuntuone-couch?  shows up for demotion on components-mismatches, and is also dep-wait on python-mocker - is this an MIR in progress with a dep that got missed, or a deliberate demotion?15:44
pittislangasek: it might be related to ubuntuone using ubuntuone-installer now, instead of shipping them by default15:45
pittibut these shuold be in main anyway, I think15:45
pittinessita/dobey probably know better, though15:46
slangasekoh, actually only dep-wait in the rebuild archive; in the real archive it's built, but python-mocker is still in universe15:46
slangasekwhat's going on with libreoffice on powerpc?  Is someone working on that, or should I kill-thread the livefs build failure mails? :)15:47
pittislangasek: a new libo was just accepted from unapproved which ought to fix armel/ppc builds15:48
slangasekok15:49
pitticjwatson: hm, at least the failure mails have logs now -- that's progress?16:04
pitticjwatson: do we need more recommends for genisoimage and isohybrid?16:04
cjwatsonjust added that16:05
cjwatsonyeah, I fixed the logging16:06
pitticjwatson: IS didn't take the part about fixing the mail subject?16:06
cjwatsonnot sure, but I'm not too worried16:06
pitti(it was part of the patch that you sent to the RT)16:06
cjwatsonmaybe the new BuildLiveCD hadn't propagated out yet; it wasn't strictly needed to get past the immediate failure, only to improve things for the future16:08
dokoskaet, ok to give back the failed builds on all architectures? we never gave them back this release cycle16:18
pittidoko: they won't build very fast, but sure16:21
skaetpitti, cjwatson, slangasek,  ^^ am ok with starting it, as it won't hurt anyone ?16:21
cjwatsonyes16:21
skaetthanks for your patience doko,  looks like its a go for it.16:22
GrueMasterskaet: As soon as the Tech Overview wiki is released, I will edit the omap3 netboot info.16:22
skaetThanks GrueMaster,  Daviey ^^ please ping GrueMaster when you're done.16:23
pittiskaet: *phew*, publishing done, pressed the big red "sync" button16:28
skaetpitti.  Thank you.  :)16:28
skaetcjwatson,  I thought there was an email announcing the DVD images - but can't seem to find it.   Do you have a pointer to an email/changelog I can cross check against?16:30
cjwatsonskaet: try the natty beta-2 announcement16:33
skaetfor DVD image content?16:34
cjwatsonoh, I misunderstood16:34
cjwatsonI thought you were looking for a format for announcing DVD images as part of a release announcement16:34
skaetno,  looking for some content to put into the release notes and general announce. ;)16:35
skaetI though there was something mailed out in the last month,  but after poking around for 15 minutes, and not finding, figured better to ask.16:35
cjwatsonso you mean for the new smaller DVD images16:35
skaetyes16:35
cjwatsonI don't see anything other than the discussion on ubuntu-devel, which is not terribly helpful for this16:36
cjwatsonhttps://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/foundations-o-great-cd-debate sort of16:36
skaetWill use that then - just thought there was a summary already somewhere.16:36
skaetWill post my draft for review then.16:37
pittiwhoops, TechOverview links to /natty16:38
cjwatsonI don't think so.  The exec summary is that the DVD images have been turned into extended desktop images with additional language support and a few extra applications, and thereby reduced to a more manageable size of around 1.5 GB16:38
pittino, ignore me16:39
cjwatson(that's probably a more useful summary than anything you'll get out of the spec, since most of this was put together after UDS)16:39
pittismoser: can you please press the publish button for http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/releases/oneiric/beta-1/ ?16:40
smoserutlemming, ^ you want to handle ?16:40
astraljavaUbuntu Studio homes in and tells all of their testcases are successfully done.16:41
skaetastraljava, yay!  :)16:45
skaetcjwatson, will keep it to that then.   Was wanting a bit more details of the applications, but we can do that in the formal release notes.16:46
skaetby formal release notes - I mean the 11.10 release - final set. ;)16:46
cjwatsonthe current list is inkscape, gimp, pitivi, and a more complete LibreOffice suite16:47
cjwatsonyou can look at the usb seed if you want full details16:47
GrueMasterskaet: Done editing the tech overview.  I also added a note on there about the older Panda ES2.0 (prerelease) boards.16:48
skaetThanks cjwatson.16:48
skaetThanks GrueMaster16:49
ogra_skaet, to be honest, looking at the tech overview, i dont really have anything for the release notes this time, most of the team fought with image buildability or general bugs, there are no actual highlights on image content this time16:50
skaetogra_,  ok.  Thanks for the follow up.16:51
ogra_and the line under ubuntu arm is info from last alpha16:51
ogra_that should go (preinstalled-pool)16:51
skaetogra_, delete away.16:51
ogra_k16:52
pittiskaet, cjwatson: hm: TechOverview says it should be http://releases.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/oneiric/beta-116:54
pittiwhile reality is http://releases.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/oneiric/16:54
pittii. e. without the /beta-116:54
pittiwhich one is right?16:55
pittiI think it's cdimage, and we should fix TechOverview16:55
pittibut making triple sure16:55
pittihttp://releases.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/natty/ also exists, no /final or so16:55
skaetpitti appreeciate it.16:55
skaetScottK,  ^^ can you confirm it should be: http://releases.ubuntu.com/kubuntu/oneiric/16:56
pittiskaet: same for ubuntu16:56
GrueMasterskaet: I noticed Kubuntu Arm on the Tech Overview.  Did it even get tested?  I didn't see an entry on the iso tracker.16:56
cjwatsonpitti: reality is correct16:56
cjwatsonskaet,ScottK: ^-16:57
skaetGrueMaster,  delete it.   It didn't get tested.16:57
cjwatsonthe /beta-1 suffix is only for cdimage.u.c16:57
pitticjwatson: ok, thanks for confirming16:57
pittiskaet: TechOver fixed16:58
pittiskaet: fixed harder for netboot16:59
GrueMasterHmm.  It's gone now.  Was there yesterday iirc.16:59
skaetThanks pitti!16:59
pittiskaet: ok, seems to be mostly right now; now we need an hour of patience until stuff gets mirrored17:00
pitti(or two)17:00
* pitti has some dinner in the meantime17:00
skaetpitti,  enjoy your dinner.17:01
* cjwatson -> dinner17:06
skaetcjwatson, enjoy yours as well.17:06
* skaet --> lunch, be offline for a bit, then back. 17:35
ScottKskaet: I'm sure whatever pitti says is right.18:11
ScottKGrueMaster: If you didn't get a chance to test Kubuntu arm, then I know it didn't get tested.18:11
GrueMasterScottK: My time this cycle is overloaded with server testing.  I honestly didn't get as much time testing the ubuntu desktop images that I would have liked.18:12
GrueMasterBut I noticed the kubuntu arem images weren't even on the tracker this time.18:13
ScottKSure. Not being critical, just saying if it'd been tested, you'd know.18:13
ScottKNot sure why that was.18:13
utlemmingcloud-images are published, however with the addition of the armel images the scripts didn't populate them to them to http://uec-images.ubuntu.com/releases/oneiric/beta-1/18:13
GrueMasterI thought it was a Kubuntu decision and as overloaded as I am, didn't say anything.  Sorry about that.18:13
skaetScottK, since it was about where Kubuntu was pointing to, figured you should be aware. ;)18:17
ScottKThanks.18:17
pittia stack of pancakes later..18:25
ScottKWould someone please look at https://wiki.kubuntu.org/OneiricOcelot/Beta1/Kubuntu and verify I described the download locations correctly?18:36
pittiskaet: all download links in the release announcement confirmed to work, cdimage mirroring complete18:37
pittiskaet: I also did a random sample on https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+cdmirrors and it seems more than half of the mirrors have beta-118:38
skaetpitti, excellent.  :)  just putting up a draft of the Upgrade instructions on community page.   Can you take a pass to check it?18:38
pittiskaet: so we now need IS to run the mirror prober, and get it online18:38
pittiScottK: looks good to me18:39
ScottKpitti: Thanks.18:39
skaethttps://help.ubuntu.com/community/OneiricUpgrades18:39
pittiskaet: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/releasenotes/1110 link doesn't work yet, I guess that's expected?18:40
skaetpitti,  try now18:40
skaetsorry18:40
skaetyeah18:40
pittino, I get to http://www.ubuntu.com/18:40
skaetthat won't work until web team makes it live.18:40
pittiskaet: "Upgrade from 11.10 to 11.04" that would be backwards :)18:40
skaetheh,  see why I wanted someone to check ;)18:40
pittiskaet: "Open the Update Manager application from the System → Administration menu." that doesn't actually exist any more in unity18:41
pittithat would be something like Windows key + "update"18:41
skaetack.18:42
skaet:)18:42
pittiskaet: I don't think these instructions will work for beta releases18:42
pittiyou need update-manager -d18:42
pittias in our Tech Notes18:42
pittithese instructions are valid for the final release18:43
ScottKYep.18:43
ScottKKubuntu section needs the same change.18:43
skaetpitti, yes you're right.18:43
pitti"Download the alternate installation CD from http://releases.ubuntu.com/natty/"18:43
pittiin the Upgrading Using the Alternate CD/DVD section18:43
* skaet did a fast clone from natty and should have spent more time on it before asking. :/18:45
pittiheh, np -- perhaps just grep for "atty"?18:45
pittiskaet: seems it's the only one18:46
skaetthere's always one.  ;)18:46
pitti"Just visit http://releases.ubuntu.com/11.04/," in the torrent section18:47
skaetyeah, that needs to be matching the announce now.18:47
ScottKCan I edit now?18:49
skaetScottK,  if pitti's not in,  go ahead.18:49
pittiI'm not editing any page18:49
pittiskaet: btw, release meeting tomorrow, or do we skip it?18:50
skaetpitti,  skip it.   I'll send out the cancellation later.18:50
charlie-tcaoh, thank you18:50
* skaet needs to sleep tonight, not work on agendas. 18:50
pittican't say I'm overly disappointed :)18:50
skaetand its been a long, long week for the entire team... and everyones efforts and patience is VERY much appreciated!18:51
ScottKKubuntu fixed.18:53
skaetThanks ScottK18:58
ScottKJust got another amd64+mac install success story.19:26
pittigood night everyone!19:31
skaetgood night pitti!  sleep well and thank you!!19:33
stgraberpitti: bye!19:33
elmois unity known to be broken for upgrades from 11.04 right now or am I just special?20:37
highvoltagethe two concepts aren't mutually exclusive.20:38
skaetelmo, there are a couple of known bugs still. :( seeing a crash or something more subtle?20:38
elmohighvoltage:  well played20:38
elmoskaet: no, I mean, as in, unity appears to be causing upgrade-manager -d to break20:39
skaetclassic20:39
elmoskaet: but, actually it looks more like it's a combination of a stupid transparent proxy setup by incompetent sysadmins  and archive.ubuntu.com de-sync problems20:39
elmothe latter at least is fixed - I guess I'll go and look at the former20:39
skaetelmo,  thanks.   Let us know if it persists.20:40
* skaet crosses fingers20:41
* Daviey checks in20:51
elmonope, it really is broken for me - is anywhere other than mvo good at decoding update-manager apt spew?20:51
slangasekI could have a peek20:52
Davieyelmo: If it's spew, it sounds at the very least a usability bug.. raise it with the log.. the worst that will happen is that it'll be Invalid. :)20:53
elmoI also notice update-manager is leaking private ppa passwords20:53
ScottKSo the log in a bug would be double plus good.20:53
slangasekin bug reports, or where?20:53
elmoslangasek: /var/log/dist-upgrade is 75520:54
elmohttp://paste.ubuntu.com/680120/20:54
slangasekoh, and private ppa configs are 0600?20:54
elmoyeah20:54
elmoand the password is included in the log spew20:54
elmoI'll file a bug about it20:54
skaetelmo, yes please.20:55
slangaseki386 or amd64 system?20:55
elmoslangasek: i38620:55
slangasekok20:55
slangasekwell, step 1, gvfs shouldn't be using Conflicts on libgvfscommon020:56
slangasekbut that one it solves20:56
Daviey"Broken unity-2d-panel:i386 Depends on libunity-2d-private0" .. I assume that is a non-archive package?20:56
DavieyI suck, forget that20:57
elmohttp://paste.ubuntu.com/680123/20:57
slangasekBroken libindicator6:i386 Breaks on libindicator3 [ i386 ] < 0.3.22-0ubuntu1 -> 0.3.22-0ubuntu2 > ( universe/libs ) (<= 0.3.93-0ubuntu1)20:57
elmoI have some non-archive packages installed, but nothing to do with unity, I don't think20:57
slangasek  Considering libindicator3:i386 10 as a solution to libindicator6:i386 520:57
slangasek  Holding Back libindicator6:i386 rather than change libindicator3:i38620:57
slangasekthat's not good20:57
slangaseklibindicator6 should drop the Breaks: libindicator[123], there are no file overlaps20:59
elmoslangasek: shall I file those two as bugs?21:00
slangasekelmo: yes please21:01
slangasekhmm, I see some at-spi noise in here still21:01
elmoslangasek: a bug against update-manager too for giggles?21:02
ScottK"Update-manager should make it work anyway"21:02
slangasekelmo: for the log perms?21:02
slangasekno, it's not update-manager's job to predict wrong package relationship declarations in advance21:02
slangasekonly to fix them up as a last resort, and we have a better resort here21:03
elmono no21:03
elmoI didn't mean it should be magic21:03
elmoI meant in case mvo wanted to see if there was any other stuff in there of interest21:03
elmothe logs is #839094, I'll go file the other 221:04
slangasekwell, I'm confident that libindicator6 is the root of all the problems, but feel free to disbelieve me :)21:05
slangasekand as that's a quick'n'easy fix, once the bug is filed I'll shoot off an upload21:08
elmoslangasek: #839098 is libindicator bug21:10
elmoand #839101 is the gvfs one21:13
elmoslangasek: thanks a lot21:13
slangasekelmo: thanks for the report!21:16
skaet+121:17
skaetslangasek,  I need a one liner about multiarch for the announce email.21:17
* skaet figures we should say something there.21:17
ScottKWorks more better and ia32-libs is shrinking.21:17
slangasekman21:17
slangasekyou're talking to the guy who can't fit sentences on twitter21:17
skaetMultiarch is now the default. ??21:17
skaetjust some sort of flag, is the hope.21:18
slangasekmaybe it's best to avoid the jargon term "Multiarch" in the announcement?21:18
slangasekUbuntu 11.10 Beta 1 enables support for installing 32-bit library and application packages on 64-bit systems.21:18
slangasekthat's the first line of what I put in the tech overview, maybe that works?21:19
skaetslangasek, yeah that works.  :)21:20
skaetthanks21:20
slangasekn/p :)21:20

Laneyhoorah21:35
skaetThanks everyone for your help getting this one out!!  :)21:39
DavieyIs it too late for a respin?21:39
charlie-tcaI would say thank you to everyone too. This one was not easy to get done!21:39
slangasekDaviey: you're free to spin :)21:39
Davieyheh21:39
ScottKskaet: Shouldn't it be ocelot pelts?21:40
skaetScottK,  ocelots are endangered, we want to feed them, not skin 'em ;)21:41
ScottKBut are they tasty?21:42
ScottKI guess I'm unlikely to find out.21:42
skaetlol.  true.  :)21:42
charlie-tcaum, not to put a damper on things, but server images are missing from http://releases.ubuntu.com/oneiric/21:46
Davieycharlie-tca: well spotted21:48
skaetcharlie-tca, Daviey - investigating...21:49
jibeland wubi.exe21:49
robbiewDaviey, you're fired21:49
jibelcharlie-tca, that's because Daviey is waiting for a respin21:50
Davieyrobbiew: good stuff.21:50
skaetslangasek, can you help here.21:50
charlie-tcaThank you, jibel21:51
charlie-tcaThat is a good reason21:51
Daviey(no, i'm not)21:51
jibelj/k21:51
robbiewlol21:51
robbiewutlemming: you shut down your test instances, right?21:51
robbiewlol21:51
utlemmingrobbiew: why would I want to do that? I was hoping to break my high score21:52
robbiewheh21:53
Davieyrobbiew: He has a cronjob to do it just in case :)21:53
utlemmingyes, yes, I do21:53
Davieyconsidering the filenames are consistent, doing a crawl and HEAD requests prior to anouncement might be good.21:54
sladenhello all.  Late drop wallpaper time21:56
sladenbug #833990 (default wallpaper, slightly tweak from previous version that shouldn't affect documentation or screenshots) + bug #829213 (community wallpapers;  not set by default, only potentially visible in screenshots of Apperance control panel, where they are interchangable with any other selection)21:58
Davieysladen: Yeah, Yeah, we've done the last minute fix gag already21:58
sladenDaviey: one has to be seen to do *something* ;-)21:59
skaetsladen,  ok,  if its not affecting the documentation and screenshots means we should be fine.   Thanks for explaining.22:03
slangasekskaet: help with what?  disrespectful engineers? :)22:03
skaetslangasek,  we haven't published the server images.22:03
slangasekah22:03
slangasekyes, I can help with that :)22:03
skaetThank you!  I'm needing sleep, and would probably make things worse if I started in at it. :P22:04
robbieweh...it's just server...who runs that anyway22:04
skaetlol22:04
slangasekskaet: is 20110901 the correct image to publish?  Because the ISO tracker (and therefore publish-image-set) says 20110830 is what was tested22:05
slangasekand that one went away due to the image rotation policy when 20110901 was spun22:06
skaetslangasek,  publish 20110830,  that was the one tested.22:06
slangasekyeah, can't do that :/22:06
slangasek20110901 probably shouldn't have been spun if we intended 20110830 to be published, since it's spinning the new image that expires the older ones...22:06
skaetThe images are still on the iso tester though.22:06
slangasekthe iso tester doesn't know what's actually on the server22:07
* skaet lives and learns22:07
slangasekit just believes whatever people tell it about the versions22:07
slangasekso is there a way to get 20110901 tested quickly?22:08
skaetDaviey, robbiew - any options here.22:08
skaet?22:09
Daviey20110830 is gone?22:09
Davieygah22:09
Davieywhy is only one being kept?22:09
slangasekit's two that are kept22:09
slangasekrather, two days worth22:09
DavieyI can only see one on cdimage22:10
robbiewdoes hggdh have a version lying around22:10
robbiew or in jenkins?22:10
slangasekyes, because there was no run on 2011083122:10
skaetwhat about on the auto testers?22:10
hggdhrobbiew: version of what?22:10
robbiewserver beta iso22:10
robbiew2011083022:10
DavieyThe known issues, other than EFI are not resolved.22:11
slangasekI'm somewhat uncomfortable with the idea of reconstituting the images from elsewhere unless you can show me the SHA256SUMS.gpg to go with it22:11
hggdhrobbiew: just checked, it has already been updated to today's image, sorry22:11
DavieySo at automated test run would be 'ok' to release with, plus a manual smoke test IMO.  However, that will not complete quickly.22:11
hggdhand not on Jenkins either, we only keep the current version there22:12
slangasekhow long?22:12
Davieyhggdh: Do you know how long a test run takes?22:12
Davieythe jenkins tests22:12
hggdhon Jenkins? ~ 30 minutes22:12
hggdhwant one?22:12
skaetyes please22:12
Davieyhggdh: all images, or just 1?22:12
slangasekwe're only releasing amd64 and i386, right?22:13
hggdhDaviey: right now we fire off all tests22:13
slangasekSo max 2 images22:13
robbiewright22:13
Davieysorry, s/images/testcases22:13
slangasek(I see there's also an amd64+mac server, is that used?)22:13
slangasekshould I bump to 20110901 on iso.qa, then?22:14
skaetslangasek, no.22:14
hggdhDaviey: jenkins run started22:14
slangasekskaet: no to the first or second question?22:14
skaetonly ones we care about right now and publish... amd64 and i38622:14
Davieyslangasek: Yes please.22:15
slangasekack22:15
Davieyhggdh: thanks.22:15
robbiewwe don't care about amd64+mac server22:15
skaetsorry slangasek,  typing IRC speed again.22:15
robbiewI mean, I "care"...but you know22:15
Davieyhggdh: Are you able to smoke a manual test to gain confidence aswell?22:15
hggdhDaviey: yeah. Now if this is about today's image, already did it ;-)22:16
Davieyslangasek: So we 'lost' the final release candidate last cycle for the cloud images, due to the same issue last cycle... causing much stress,22:17
DavieyI think when we have a declared candidate, for milestones/releases.. the images need to chowned/chmodded to stop the cleanup removing them without manual intervention.22:17
hggdhDaviey: I will smoke-test i386; AMD64 was smoke-tested earlier on today22:18
DavieyLosing the candidates is suck.22:18
Davieyhggdh: you are my hero.22:18
skaetslangasek, Daviey - yeah we need some redundancy here.    Not sure what the solution is, but when something goes on the tracker, getting it shadowed somewhere seems logical to me.22:19
slangaseklogical but difficult to implement22:19
Davieyslangasek: What will happen if the cleanup doesn't have access to rm them?22:20
slangasekbecause the iso tracker and cdimage.u.c don't actually know anything about each other22:20
slangasekDaviey: er, I don't actually see any way to block the access to rm them.  I would much rather we have a command that sets antimony into "Milestone mode", disabling the automatic cleanup and the cronjob at once22:21
Davieyslangasek: Yes, i don't care about automating it, but a human removing permission on cdimage for the cleanup script to rm them?22:21
skaetLets talk about this with jibel tomorrow, and see if he has some ideas how we can clone them somewhere when they're loaded to the iso tracker - that may be the angle to tackle it from.   Not sure.22:21
Davieyslangasek: ah ok.22:21
slangasekDaviey: there are no accounts having write access to the directories in question other than the account doing the actual removal22:22
slangasekso it's hard to set perms such that an rm will fail :)22:22
Davieyslangasek: Yeah, if only it were possible to add more users to servers. :)22:22
DavieyBut yes, i agree your implementation is better.22:23
slangasekposted to the tracker22:24
skaetthanks slangasek22:24
DavieyThis should mean that EFI issue can be un-release-noted.22:26
hggdhof the 24 Jenkins tests, 20 have already finished successfully22:29
hggdher, 21 have finished22:30
hggdhDaviey: i386 smoke test successful; Jenkins run successful22:36
slangasekjenkins run for both archs?22:49
hggdhslangasek: yes. Two failures noted on AMD64, but these are caused by a local issue; I am hand-running these two now22:53
hggdhslangasek: I updated the tracker with the Jenkins runs22:53
DavieyI am also running a smoke on amd64.22:54
Davieyhggdh: thanks!22:54
* skaet --> needs to shift location. biab.22:55
hggdhslangasek: I very much doubt I will be able to run *all* tests in a timely manner, though22:58
Davieyhggdh: suitable confidence is enough i think.23:03
hggdhDaviey: then I guess we have it, 13/16 tests run for each AMD64 and i38623:05
slangasekare the other test cases not automated yet?23:08
slangasekDaviey: you're happy for me to publish then?23:08
Davieyslangasek: 4 more mins pls23:10
hggdhslangasek: they are indeed not automated -- they require user intervention (encrypted LVM, RAID1) or resources I do not have access to (ESX)23:12
hggdhfor the user intervention we may be able to address very soon, though23:12
Davieyslangasek: I am happy.. FIRE!23:14
Davieyhggdh: does anyone actually test ESX?.. it seems to be skipped every milestone.23:15
hggdhwe had someone to test it before -- but I myself do not have access to a VMWare ESX. I *think* Canonical has it installed, but IDK the details23:16
Davieyhggdh: we should probably get to the bottom of that before b2.23:17
hggdhDaviey: certainly23:17
hggdhpfui! We may die of a lot of different things, but boredom will not be it ;-)23:19
Daviey:)23:20
* skaet sees edit is done on the WIKI - thanks Daviey.23:25
Davieynp23:27
Davieyslangasek: Did you publish it?23:27
elmo  23:35
slangasekDaviey: done23:39
Davieyslangasek: thanks!23:40
skaetThanks slangasek!!23:40
skaetThanks Daviey, hggdh!23:40
hggdhskaet: my pleasure23:40
* Daviey heads to bed. Thanks.23:40
