twbI'm trying to do some pinning for the first time in a few years; last time I tried it didn't work on Ubuntu because there were no release aliases (stable/testing/unstable).01:57
twbBut this looks like it should work, and I can't see what I'm doing wrong: http://paste.debian.net/135875/01:57
twbIs there some gotcha I don't know about, like "pinning doesn't work at all in lucid" ?01:57

pittiSpamapS, RAOF: did either of you accept postgresql-common into oneiric-proposed?08:55
pittisomeone did, but didn't run sru-accept08:55
pittianyway, running it now08:55
RAOFNope, but I guess oneiric-proposed is now open for sru business, isn't it.  Time for me to start checking that queue.08:57
pittiRAOF: right, it is; we already accepted quite a number of SRUs, see the HTML report08:58

mdeslaurpitti: the postgresql 8.4.9 update is failing to build on armel. The regression test fails horribly. Any ideas?11:42
mdeslaurpitti: ie: http://paste.ubuntu.com/706647/ , http://paste.ubuntu.com/706648/11:44
pittimdeslaur: ugh, no; haven't see that one yet; that's a regression from .9, i. e. .8 worked in the same environment?12:05
mdeslaurpitti: yeah, .8 compiled fine on the armel builders12:05
mdeslaurpitti: unless something changed on the builders since .8 was compiled12:06
pittimdeslaur: does it affect all releases? i. e. lucid/maverick/natty?12:07
mdeslaurpitti: yes12:07
mdeslaurpitti: 8.3 compiled fine on hardy armel though12:08
pittiok, then it's very likely a regression in .912:08
pittibuilt fine on sid, though (https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=postgresql-8.4&arch=armel&ver=8.4.9-1&stamp=1317049566)12:08
pittimdeslaur: I'll try that in a porter chroot12:09
mdeslaurpitti: thanks12:09
mdeslaurpitti: the way it's failing could be a lack of resources on the builders12:10
pittiI wonder whether the shm settings changed12:11
pittimdeslaur: oh, the buildds changed12:11
pittimdeslaur: we now have panda board12:12
pittis12:12
pittipreviously (until a few weeks ago) we had another kind12:12
pittimdeslaur: anyway, I'll try on the porter box12:12
mdeslauroh!12:13
mdeslaurpitti: ok, let me know12:14
pittimdeslaur: I think all the arm builders which are on "manual" are the old ones12:14
pittimdeslaur: do you have the builds in a PPA or so, where you can retry them easily?12:14
mdeslaurpitti: is porter a panda board?12:14
pittiI wonder if we could temporarily set the panda boards on manual and reactivate one of the old ones to grab the build12:15
pittito see whether that's the difference12:15
mdeslaurpitti: yes, there in the security PPA, I can retry them12:15
pittimdeslaur: don't yet, need to ask lamont first12:15
pittimdeslaur: no, kakadu (porter) is a babbage (MX51)12:16
mdeslaurlamont: although pandas are quite cute, it turns out they can be pretty mean12:16
pittilamont: are the old babbage armel buildds really down, or just disabled to let the pandas build everything?12:17
pittilamont: i. e. can I reactivate one of the babbages to let teh postgres update build?12:17
pittialso, do we have a panda porter box?12:20
pittimdeslaur: 8.4.9 build running on kakadu now; will take a bit, though12:22

lamontyou could certainly stuff something on one of the ones listed as manual13:19
pittilamont: thanks13:19
pittimdeslaur: kakadu still building; shall we try this, to have some parallelism?13:20
lamontpitti: I've been failing to bring the bbg3 boards back when they fall over, since they're not suitable for a datacenter.  if they're not DISABLED in launchpad, they're live13:20
pittilamont: cool, thanks; wanted to be sure I won't set anythign on fire by reenabling them13:21
mdeslaurlamont: is there a way I can force a PPA rebuild to a specific builder?13:21
lamontit was done entirely for build time minimization13:21
pittimdeslaur: I'll do taht13:21
lamontmdeslaur: you get someone with buildd admin privs to encourage it13:21
pittimdeslaur: if you can stand by with retrying (don't yet), I'll set up teh buildds accordingly13:21
pittilamont: on it13:21
mdeslaurpitti: ok, let me know13:21
* pitti looks for a suitable bait -- aah, this candy over here!13:22
pittimdeslaur: ok, please retry the build now13:22
pittishould land on actinidiaceae13:23

pittiI reset the buildds13:24
mdeslaurpitti: ok, cool, now we wait13:24
pittifor some reason https://launchpad.net/builders just stopped working for me (I get "forbidden")13:24
pittiperhaps LP now forbids me seeing this as soon as there's a private build running?13:25
mdeslaurpitti: yeah, apparently when there's a security build going on that whole page gets forbidden13:25
mdeslaurpitti: I wasn't aware of the change, but someone mentioned it this week13:25
pittithat's new, though; I used to be able to see it13:25
pittiit's not that secrect, though, https://launchpad.net/builders/actinidiaceae still shows it13:25
mdeslaurit's not a very good change, it should still work, but simply not say what's building IMHO13:25
pittialso, "yes, we are building security updates" -- that's not exactly a secret?13:25
pittimdeslaur: it never did13:26
pittiit just said "private build"13:26
mdeslaurso, it's broken13:26
pittiit's never really been an information leak13:26
pittiexcept that you coudl have timed it and thus make some guesses13:26
mdeslaurmeh13:27
pittibut now I can still time the time that the page has "forbidden" for me :)13:27
pitti(imagine some less ridiculous word repetition there)13:27
mdeslaurright, not a big difference :)13:27
frafuHi, could anybody please tell how I can submit a package to proposed as requested here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/onboard/+bug/872374/comments/113:42
ubottuUbuntu bug 872374 in onboard (Ubuntu Oneiric) "Feature Freeze exception request: new version with GI, gsettings,..." [High,New]13:42
charlie-tcafrafu: probably better to ask in #ubuntu-motu or #ubuntu-devel, actually.13:49
charlie-tcaooops13:50
charlie-tcasorry, wrong channel13:50
frafuIt is a package from main; should I nevertheless ask in MOTU?13:51
tumbleweed!sru | frafu13:51
ubottufrafu: Stable Release Update information is at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates13:51
charlie-tcano, here should be correct13:51
=== beuno-lunch is now known as beuno
frafuWhat does 'Use Nominate for series' mean? It is in the procedure to get it into sru.13:56
tumbleweedfrafu: already done on that bug, it adds a task for the series (oneiric task below the "onboard (Ubuntu)" yellow bar13:58
frafutumbleweed: Has it also already been submitted to -proposed? (I suppose that it means release-proposed!?14:03
tumbleweedfrafu: that would be an upload to oneiric-proposed, that someone will have to sponsor for you. Procedure is to subscribe ubuntu-sponsors and wait. But seeing as there's some urgency here, maybe a core-dev lurking here now can sponsor it (I'm not a core-dev)14:06
* tumbleweed has been saying that a lot recently. Maybe I should apply... (but I don't touch main much...)14:07
frafutumbleweed: Thanks for the explanation.14:07
pittimdeslaur: build finished just fine on kakadu14:14
pittimdeslaur: seems we need a panda porter box to figure this out then14:15
mdeslaurpitti: ok, let's see if actinidiaceae builds it14:15
pittimdeslaur: fun, now I can see the /builders page again although it's still building14:16
mdeslaurhow odd14:16
mdeslaurmaybe it's not related to the security build14:16
infinitypitti: We have a panda porter box.14:42
infinitypitti: scheat.14:42

Nafalloslangasek: double name. likely vetoed :-)14:47
slangaseksnerk14:48
Nafallothat compiz in -proposed btw. are there loads of bugs about it?14:48
NafalloI just downgraded to confirm that was what kept stealing my windows and hiding them someplace else.14:48
slangasekNafallo: do you mean to ask "where do I report that the -proposed compiz is broken"? :)14:49
infinityI think that's exactly what he meant.  It gets lost in translation from the original Swedish Chef.14:50
Nafalloslangasek: nope. more of a "have anyone seen this, or do I need to file a new bug"14:50
Nafalloinfinity: b0rk bork b0rkie.14:50
slangasekno, you need to mark an *existing* bug as verification-failed so that the SRU team knows not to copy it to -updates14:50
infinityThat assumes there's an SRU bug open forit.14:51
slangasekNafallo: by taking https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/748840 for example, explaining the regression in the comments, replacing 'verification-needed' with 'verification-failed' in the tags, and linking to a bug report for the new behavior if you have one14:51
ubottuUbuntu bug 748840 in unity "Windows should not automatically be focused when opened if the focus is on another application" [Critical,Fix committed]14:51
slangasekinfinity: why would we accept something into -proposed without an SRU bug?14:51
Nafallohopefully the bug is listed in the changelog then14:52
slangasekyes, that's how it works14:52
infinityslangasek: We really shouldn't.  Just sayin'. :P14:52
slangasekinfinity: oh, btw14:52
slangasekBinary files i386/usr/share/man/man8/pam_shells.8.gz and amd64/usr/share/man/man8/pam_shells.8.gz differ14:52
infinity*^$!%14:52
infinityAlso: fuck.14:52
Nafallohrm. loads of bugs in the changelog, but none for the SRU itself I don't think.14:53
slangasekNafallo: it doesn't matter, we don't *want* placeholder SRU bugs in the changelog14:53
infinityNo, but each of those bugs will need verification, so pick one and fail it. :P14:53
slangasekyes14:53
Nafalloheh14:54
infinityslangasek: Here's a question, do the differing files match the differences from the last build?14:56
slangasekinfinity: the good news is, armel and i386 are the same this time... so we're down to one random variation instead of two :P14:56
slangasekinfinity: checking14:56
infinityslangasek: (ie: is this deterministic and repeatable, and we just don't know how to determine the repeatable steps yet?)14:56
infinityslangasek: The part where armel wasn't as broken as last time, while amd64 is, is a bit shaky already. :/14:57
slangasekinfinity: yes, amd64's pam_shells.8.gz came out the same in both runs14:57
infinityUnless it relates to what machine it built on...14:57
slangasekbut *different* than when I run gzip here14:57
infinityslangasek: Same machine for both amd64 builds?14:57
infinity(And different for both armel builds?)14:57
slangasekhaven't looked; will look later14:57

davmor2mvo, pitti: hey guy I got an issue with jockey and ati (post-release updates) it won't install the driver paste.ubuntu.com/706773 is jockey log,  I'm assuming there is no driver and that is the issue but I expect it to install the current and then update to the latest if I select it.15:16
didrocksbarry: hey, I tried your "from __future__ import unicode_literals", but I still get some "UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character", I guess that's due to the launchpad results I get, any trick?15:17
barrydidrocks: wow, sorry, i've forgotten the details of our previous chat ;)15:18
didrocksbarry: well, notC related for this time, but I raised that we recently got random UnicodeEncodeError: in oneiric (since starting september I would say) in various python apps (software-properties, apport, oneconf…) without any code change15:19
didrocksbarry: and there, I have one when trying to write to a file, the data comes from launchpad, I guess I need to decode in ascii with just ignoring unicode character, or is there a smarter way?15:20
barrydidrocks: ah right.  i was also musing with mvo about this i think.  i wondered whether the default encoding for the file had changed.15:20
barrydidrocks: i don't remember how the data comes from lp.  is it utf-8 text, latin1 or ascii text, bytes?15:21
barryi guess not ascii text though :)15:21
didrocksbarry: it's utf-8 from what I remember (but it's not only with launchpad, the issue happened recently with loading translation for instance)15:22
barrydidrocks: right, i'm remembering now15:22
barrydidrocks: do you have an example that i can try to reproduce here locally?  i can recommend a hammer to keep you going (basically using errors='replace' or errors='ignore'), but since this is coming up in several cases, it might be better to dig in a little on what's going on15:25
didrocksbarry: if you are not afraid by using a french locale, yeah :)15:25
barrydidrocks: well, maybe in a vm :)15:26
barrydidrocks: english locales already freak me out :)15:26
didrocksbarry: ahah ;) just "bzr branch lp:oneconf", and apply this patch to remove my workaround: http://paste.ubuntu.com/706780/15:27
didrocksbarry: then ./oneconf-query --help should badly fail15:28
didrocks(on french locale)15:28

tseliotpitti: that should be correct if the package hasn't been installed yet15:51
pittitseliot: so either it's calling the nvidia-common alternatives handling wrongly (i. e. returning None is valid), or some symlinks are broken on that box?15:51
pittitseliot: but it was15:51
pittidkms completed and all that15:51
pittiit's before calling set_alternative(), though15:52
pittitseliot: it's in ./data/handlers/fglrx.py line 90 apparently15:52
pittitseliot: i. e. XorgDriverHandler.enable(self) finished, which does all teh "install pacakge" stuff15:52
pittiso it aborts and doesn't call set_alternative15:52
pittiadmittedly I'm not sure what that does15:53
pittidavmor2: does the driver actually work?15:53
tseliotpitti, davmor2: the output of "update-alternatives --display x86_64-linux-gnu_gl_conf" and of "update-alternatives --display i386-linux-gnu_gl_conf" might help15:54

slangasekseb128: 736153> oh, you assigned this to freetype?  freetype doesn't choose the glyphs, fwiw20:11
seb128slangasek, fontconfig does? ;-)20:12
slangasekno, pango20:12
seb128hum, k20:12
seb128I've not clue about fonts :p20:12
slangasekfreetype just renders the glyph it's asked for :)20:12
seb128slangasek, feel free to reassign at the right place, g-c-c was just wrong ;-)20:12
seb128slangasek, thanks20:12
slangasekyep - reassigned already20:12
slangasekbut it's fontconfig - picks which fonts to use; pango - picks which glyphs are needed for a string; freetype - turns those glyphs into graphics20:13

brycehjml, great thanks21:26
jmlbryceh: I can demonstrate in Orlando, if that will help21:27
brycehjml, maybe...  I'm guessing that the issue is that the driver's not able to keep the gfx pipeline full 100% and when it isn't the monitor glitches21:28
brycehbut I'm not sure  how to prove or disprove that, so it's kind of a useless guess :-/21:29
brycehjml, what I think I'll do is forward your bug upstream; maybe they can shed more light on it21:29
jmlbryceh: ok. thanks.21:29
brycehjml, oh one thing you could doublecheck... boot a natty livecd and just verify that you definitely aren't seeing the issue in natty21:30
jmlbryceh: ok. I can do that. (although not tonight, I'll make a note.) I'll also try to reproduce on a clean oneiric live stick, as I don't think I have yet.21:31
brycehthat'll help eliminate any chance it's just hardware (e.g. degraded power supply), and firm up the known-good side of the regression21:31

ajmitchbroder: how badly have you broken it?22:56
broderwell, apparently the /var/run -> /run migration code didn't run, so i'm going to go with "badly"22:56

slangasekdo you have vmware packages installed?22:56

broder(rc6.d is not a mess)22:57
slangasekyeah, vmware has decided you don't need a shutdown "sequence", hth22:57

slangasekhmm, except there was another bug that talked explicitly about the vmware problem22:58
broderoh good grief22:59
broderslangasek: so is there a reasonable way to clean this up, or do i have to settle for the unreasonable way of just fixing up /var/run and /var/lock by hand?23:01
slangasekbroder: well, you can fix rc6.d by hand and then reboot... then /etc/rc6.d/S60umountroot will take care of it for you23:02
slangasekrealistically you need to reboot afterwards anyway, so that might be simplest23:03
slangaseknot finding the bug that explains vmware being at fault, hrm23:04
broderweird that this only happened on one of my machines - i upgraded another one with vmplayer installed and that was fine23:05
brodermaybe it's workstation specific? i've only ever had that installed on this one, though i don't currently23:05
slangasekthat sounds correct23:05
brodererr, "don't have it installed currently"23:06
slangasekbroder: you do have reboot with a link of something like S03reboot though, right?23:06
slangasekinstead of S90 like it's meant to have?23:06
broderyeah23:06
slangasekyeah, that's the symptom23:06
broderthe whole order is screwed up - almost all of htem are S03, except for urandom and casper which are S0423:06
slangasekheh23:07
slangasekbeen getting much disk corruption on reboot lately?23:07
broderwouldn't have noticed23:07
broderdbus wasn't starting because /var/run/dbus/pid was sticking around23:08
broderit goes downhill from there pretty quickly23:08
broderactually, i guess one of my disks got ejected from the raid 1...23:09
slangasekright, I mean corruption *prior* to upgrade... since the rc6 screwup probably happened some time in the past23:10

sladenGrueMaster: I assume it's going to hit the same issue as the last time around: the airframe is certified for X seats, and that's the same X that Ryanair already have fitted.  There is a mandated ratio of X passengers to Y staff … and so would require an additional member of staff too23:26
