infinityev / cjwatson: I assume a ubiquity upload is needed to fix the FTBFS, if so, can one of you merge from https://code.launchpad.net/~adconrad/+junk/ubiquity for me?06:34
spartan0117hello all i wish information06:54
spartan0117Can I use your installer on another distro for example, on Linux From Scratch?06:55
cjwatsonspartan0117: it definitely won't work on anything that isn't Debian-based06:59
cjwatsonit would take some effort to get it to work on Debian as opposed to Ubuntu, but that would probably be doable; LFS isn't feasible though, sorry06:59
spartan0117ok thanks07:00
CIA-45ubiquity: cjwatson * r4998 trunk/ (debian/changelog ubiquity/frontend/gtk_ui.py): merge lp:~adconrad/+junk/ubiquity07:00
infinitycjwatson: Cheers.07:00
cjwatsoninfinity: done.  I've added you to ubuntu-installer too07:00
cjwatsonhope you have good mail filters07:01
infinityLP bug mail goes pleasantly to /dev/null with a few exceptions. :P07:01
cjwatsonheh07:01
infinityI should probably move those rules to the DC so I'm not routing it all over the planet just to bin it.07:02
cjwatsonmeh, it's just mail, must get lost in the noise these days07:06
cjwatsoneven my crappy link barely notices mail these days07:06
cjwatson(2Mbps!  LUXURY)07:07
infinityHeh.  Yeah.  It's being filtered on a machine with a GigE connection, I'm not that concerned.07:07
infinityTwo?  Is Cambridge that backward?07:07
infinityI have 100 at home.07:07
cjwatsonYep.  (a) 4 miles from the exchange so 2Mbps is about the theoretical limit for ADSL (b) BT aren't deploying fibre to the cabinet to Cambridge until 2012 (c) I object to some of Virgin Media's practices so I'm not getting cable07:08
cjwatsonit's annoying, but it's half as annoying as it was last week before the BT engineer fixed the wiring to my house07:09
CIA-45grub-installer: cjwatson * r1216 ubuntu/ (debian/changelog grub-installer):08:00
CIA-45grub-installer: Only process the output of os-prober into boot menu entries if we're08:00
CIA-45grub-installer: actually going to use them; if we're using GRUB 2 and os-prober is08:00
CIA-45grub-installer: installed, then it will deal with this itself and do a better job of it08:00
CIA-45grub-installer: (LP: #851704).08:00
CIA-45grub-installer: cjwatson * r1217 ubuntu/debian/changelog: releasing version 1.68ubuntu308:01

CIA-45ubiquity: Use the default signal handler for SIGPIPE, hopefully fixing the09:43
CIA-45ubiquity: child processes of update-apt-cache not getting killed along with09:43
CIA-45ubiquity: it (LP: #743359).09:43
ev^ jibel if you could give that a bash and let me know how it goes, I'd greatly appreciate it09:43
jibelev, sure, will do.09:45
evthanks!09:45
jibelev, still a fail, update-apt-cache is killed but apt refuses to die. there's also a typo line 127 prexec_fn -> preexec_fn11:29
cjwatsonev: I could use a second opinion on my wontfixing of bug 772470 for oneiric12:10
ubot2Launchpad bug 772470 in ubiquity "os-prober doesn't detect Windows partition but the recovery partition instead" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/77247012:11
cjwatsonand targeting to P12:11
evcjwatson: I agree, and have just said as much in the bug13:11
evjibel: thanks13:11
jibelev, I added offline support for disk images to Wubi. I still have some tests to do and I'll commit it. Do you think it's too late for O ?13:59
evjibel: it's somewhat of a regression fix14:00
evso we can try :)14:00
jibelgood, lets try :)14:01
CIA-45ubiquity: evand * r5000 trunk/scripts/install.py: typo14:03
fixxxermetCould anyone help me with the partman-auto part of my preseed script?14:51
fixxxermetI am ending up with one / instead of a bunch of spearated partions.  http://pastebin.com/7Dk9mLgx14:51
jibelev, about bug 855295, is the warning a notification on login ?16:07
ubot2Launchpad bug 855295 in lupin "Desktop not localized after a fresh installation" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/85529516:07
evit should be, yes16:07
evyou should have something in /var/lib/update-notifier/user.d16:08
jibelhm, no notification and /var/lib/update-notifier/user.d is empty. I'll reopen the bug, what additional info do you need ?16:10
CIA-45ubiquity: evand * r5001 trunk/ (3 files in 3 dirs):16:13
CIA-45ubiquity: Don't rely on the DBus main loop being set in the prepare plugin16:13
CIA-45ubiquity: before it's used elsewhere.16:13
evjibel: logging information from the intiramfs, which might be a bit tricky16:14
jibelev, there's another bug, hostname is set to localhost.localdomain after installation16:14
evjibel: can you do a wubi install and add break=bottom to the kernel argument in wubildr-disk.cfg before you try booting into Ubuntu16:14
evindeed, it's failing in the second stage setup16:14
evso anything that happens after setting the locale (or whatever is breaking) isn't16:15
jibelok16:15
evthe above steps should get you to a console with the error present before your (initramfs) prompt16:15
evmight have to page back through it though16:15
evI have a todo list item to add logging to that script. I should really get on that.16:16
CIA-45ubiquity: evand * r5002 trunk/ (debian/changelog gui/gtk/stepKeyboardConf.ui):16:19
CIA-45ubiquity: Pressing enter in the keyboard test entry should proceed to the next16:19
CIA-45ubiquity: page (LP: #862309).16:19
cjwatsonstgraber: can you go ahead and upload your netcfg change for bug 848072 if you're happy with it, please?  it looks OK to me17:33
ubot2Launchpad bug 848072 in netcfg "[oneiric] net-installer dhcp client fails with a DHCPDECLINE" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/84807217:33

cjwatsonthanks17:34
infinityev / cjwatson: Any plans for a non-FTBFS ubiquity upload?  While the arches are out of sync, I get no images. :/18:12
stgraberinfinity: running a PPA build of current trunk as the build failure isn't too clear to me. I updated all the local d-i sources, should have build results in an hour or so.19:28
stgrabercjwatson: I'm affraid I'll have to give you back bug 745960, can't reproduce it here and can't find anything obviously weird in what the reporter attached to the bug and I'm not familiar with what grub should be doing on Mac at all (in this case with GPT + grub-pc apparently)19:59
