| slangasek | cjwatson: new upstream version of wget in Debian adds libidn support, and there's no udeb for that. It looks like you've done some work on that recently for libssl udeb support (bug #503339). Do you know if wget-udeb has features over the busybox one that we need, or would we maybe be just as well off to drop wget-udeb? | 02:10 |

| pitti | micahg: ffox7 maverick> fine for me this week; I need to request a full maverick export and prepare them, so I need a week of advance notice | 04:20 |
| micahg | pitti: so what would be the timeline for hitting updates? | 04:21 |
| pitti | micahg: I need to ask dpm to have a maverick LP export (they don't happen automatically any more), so I think I can have the new packs ready for -proposed upload at EOW | 04:23 |
| micahg | pitti: that only gives us 10 days in updates before the next firefox release, can we do the week after UDS instead and target for Firefox 8? | 04:24 |
| pitti | micahg: sure | 04:27 |
| micahg | pitti: ok, thanks | 04:28 |

| pitti | micahg: no, I don't; is that moderated at all? | 04:33 |

| slangasek | actually, it looks like 788514 shouldn't have been listed in the changelog at all | 05:53 |
| slangasek | will be interesting to see if this SRU successfully passes verification, I guess | 05:53 |
| pitti | yeah, I'd like to get some feedback from actual onboard users there, not just a cursory "it still starts" kind of thing | 05:55 |

| micahg | any tips on -Werror=format-security errors? | 06:07 |
| micahg | seems to be new in precise | 06:07 |
| slangasek | micahg: insert a "%s" in front of whatever string variable you're currently passing | 06:08 |
| pitti | micahg: doko and cjwatson discussed it yesterday, and it seems it was a not-quite-intended effect of the merge | 06:09 |
| pitti | ... dpkg merge | 06:09 |
| pitti | while it's certainly a great thing to have, it makes tons of universe packages FTBFS, so I think they wanted to back it out again | 06:09 |
| micahg | pitti: so, should I wait rather than fix? | 06:09 |
| micahg | slangasek: would this be something to upstream, at least to Debian? | 06:10 |
| pitti | micahg: well, fixing format string errors is always good :) | 06:10 |
| pitti | micahg: yes, definitively something for upstream | 06:10 |
| slangasek | yes | 06:10 |
| pitti | we wanted to back it out not because the warnings are bad, but because it'd introduce too much universe FTBFS just yet | 06:10 |
| micahg | ok, will give it a shot then | 06:11 |
| micahg | the package I'm fixing ATM is in main (directfb) | 06:11 |
| pitti | the usual case is something like printf(var) or printf(_("hello %s")) | 06:11 |
| pitti | sorry, second without the %s | 06:11 |
| micahg | wanted to get the libjpeg changed and got more than I bargained for :) | 06:11 |
| pitti | i.e . if a translator translates "hello" as "foo %s" etc, you get crashes | 06:11 |
| slangasek | I "upstreamed" unixodbc fixes to myself for this already; they were false positives in that the strings aren't user controllable, but all the same | 06:12 |
| slangasek | s/crashes/exploits/ | 06:12 |
| Chipzz | pitti: I wonder how much such a thing really happens though. And I wonder /if/ such a thing happens, bad intentions weren't involved in the first place? | 06:13 |
| pitti | Chipzz: certainly not bad intentions in most cases | 06:13 |
| pitti | and we did have crashes due to bad format strings, it's not just a theoretical issue | 06:14 |
| slangasek | yes, it happens due to bad tooling, not bad intentions | 06:14 |
| micahg | something like this seems like a false positive: snprintf( ret_desc->name, DFB_GRAPHICS_DEVICE_DESC_NAME_LENGTH, device_info.name ); | 06:15 |
| slangasek | micahg: are you sure device_info.name can never contain a format string? | 06:16 |
| slangasek | better safe than sorry | 06:16 |
| RAOF | There's no special attention needed when merging packages which now use dpkg-buildflags to get hardening flags, is there? That'll just work for us, too? | 06:18 |
| micahg | RAOF: that's what I was told | 06:19 |

| jamespage | slangasek, its not but I can add it to the list | 07:47 |
| jamespage | ant-contrib has already been in main so should not be an issue | 07:47 |
| * slangasek nods | 07:47 | |
| slangasek | libslf4j-java is wanted by libmaven2-core-java... I guess that means we probably need it? | 07:47 |

| slangasek | ok, I'll go ahead and sync this then, and assume the rest will shake out on its own - thanks :) | 07:48 |

| slangasek | ah, ok | 08:00 |
| cjwatson | slangasek: we use wget-udeb in eucalyptus-udeb and system-integrity-check; it was originally introduced for the latter, I think on the grounds that it had HTTPS support, although system-integrity-check doesn't seem to use that facility | 08:48 |
| cjwatson | slangasek: in the case of eucalyptus-udeb we use wget-udeb because the CLC only speaks HTTPS | 08:48 |
| cjwatson | slangasek: perhaps the udeb could straightforwardly be a separate build pass without libidn support? | 08:49 |

| micahg | which reminds me, pitti, Bug #832582 is a regression caused by a firefox security upgrade in another package (libvoikko), would you like it to sit in -proposed for a week before pushing to -updates/-security or is me running through the test case sufficient? | 09:46 |

| apw | cjwatson, i have been musing about how hard it is to switch to a verbose debug boot, as the construction of the command line etc includes variables i am wondering if we could have a separate menu entry in the top level grub2 menu which would toggle the type of boot "Option: Verbose" and that could set variables to flip the boot style | 09:47 |
| micahg | pitti: thanks | 09:47 |
| micahg | pitti: I'm going to build it in the Mozilla Security PPA since it needs to go to -security, do you want it copied through proposed at all? | 09:48 |
| pitti | micahg: ah, security route WFM | 09:48 |
| pitti | micahg: in fact, better to have in -security, as people who only have -seurity, but not -updates should still get it | 09:49 |

| OdyX | cyphermox: I would have guessed so. :-) | 14:05 |
| OdyX | cyphermox: what about 2 ? What would be the impact on the first CD ? | 14:06 |
| OdyX | (jimtcl's package being currently 464k, before me stripping most of it out.) | 14:06 |
| cyphermox | OdyX: embedding doesn't sound like such a bad idea to get to a standalone binary; but it won't be possible to know that it needs a rebuild when jimtcl changes (if separate), since it won't show up in nbs and stuff | 14:06 |
| OdyX | cyphermox: embedding is nice at first sight as it "converts" the tcl script into a standalone binary, but it's clumsy. From the distribution point of view, it's hard to justify to do static-linking where everywhere else we do dynamic, especially for a script under /usr. | 14:08 |
| cyphermox | right | 14:08 |
| cyphermox | OdyX: well, 240k on the CD isn't huge but CD size is always a major concern; if we have to I guess it can be done. that said... | 14:09 |
| cyphermox | OdyX: ... it doesn't cover the second case that we'll again have a tcl interpreter getting loaded at boot time, which was another reason why usb-modeswitch-dispatcher was rewritten | 14:10 |
| OdyX | cyphermox: we could even consider a "jimsh-tiny" that has only what usb-modeswitch needs. | 14:10 |
| OdyX | cyphermox: ah right. Could you maybe explain that in a mail answering mine to debian-devel ? | 14:11 |
| cyphermox | OdyX: otoh, how is the jimsh that usb-modeswitch ships? | 14:11 |
| cyphermox | I mean, is it very big? | 14:11 |
| OdyX | cyphermox: as far as I can see, it's a libjim.a of 316K | 14:12 |
| cyphermox | OdyX: ok | 14:13 |
| OdyX | cyphermox: when compressed into usb_modeswitch_dispatcher, the remaining binary is 188k | 14:13 |
| cyphermox | I wish Josua would be so kind as to ship both and allow for which version to be chosen at build time :) | 14:16 |
| OdyX | cyphermox: well, as I always said (I think), if the (your) C program is included upstream, I consider that "upstream" and will use that; problem solved. | 14:17 |

| jdstrand | whoa | 15:00 |
| jdstrand | no way | 15:00 |
| jdstrand | unless things have changed a lot recently | 15:00 |
| jdstrand | aiui, 1.9 was basically a test bed is and constantly changing | 15:01 |
| jdstrand | very, very hard to support | 15:01 |
| doko_ | jdstrand, see lucas plan above | 15:01 |
| jdstrand | if it has stabilized, then maybe | 15:01 |
| lucas | doko_: ah, then you probably have to include it in main given that gem2deb depends on both | 15:01 |
| doko_ | jdstrand, please lets sort it out this week. so we don't merge packages, removing ruby1.9 support | 15:02 |
| jdstrand | lucas: has 1.9 stabilized? | 15:03 |
| jdstrand | lucas: keep in mind, my recollection may be quite old... | 15:03 |
| lucas | jdstrand: yes | 15:04 |
| lucas | jdstrand: in debian, we are considering switching to 1.9 as default for wheezy | 15:05 |
| jdstrand | so we are actually talking about ruby1.9.1 | 15:05 |
| jdstrand | the problem is that supporting 2 rubies for 5 years is suboptimal | 15:06 |
| doko_ | jdstrand, but iiuc, we would have to patch a lot of packages for precise, if we do not? | 15:08 |
| slangasek | cjwatson: yep, looks like a separate no-libidn pass is the way to go | 15:08 |
| jdstrand | doko_: I don't know, I just now am coming up to speed | 15:08 |
| jdstrand | doko_: on the other hand, it looks like 1.8.7 will only get upstream support unitl June 2013 | 15:09 |
| jdstrand | http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/news/2011/10/06/plans-for-1-8-7/ | 15:09 |
| jdstrand | so upstream is recommending 1.9 | 15:09 |
| doko_ | jdstrand, right, but iiuc, gem2deb will build for both (and we'll have to have both in main), unless we commit to convert to 1.9, going ahead of Debian | 15:10 |
| jdstrand | looking at upstream and lucas' comments, I think ruby1.9.1 in main would be fine. I wonder if we can demote ruby1.8... | 15:11 |
| doko_ | cjwatson, do you fix libgd2? | 15:11 |
| jdstrand | doko_: it might be worth helping them, as we will be stuck with 4 years of 1.8.7 support without upstream. last I looked at the codebases, they were radically different | 15:11 |
| jdstrand | again, that was a couple of years ago | 15:12 |
| doko_ | lucas, do you stick to 1.9.1, or will there be minor updates? | 15:12 |
| jdstrand | well, that is jsut the package name | 15:13 |
| lucas | doko_: see package description: | 15:13 |
| lucas | . | 15:13 |
| lucas | In the name of this package, `1.9.1' indicates the Ruby library | 15:13 |
| lucas | compatibility version. This package currently provides the `1.9.3' | 15:13 |
| lucas | branch of Ruby, which is compatible with the `1.9.1' branch. | 15:13 |
| jdstrand | the actual upstream version is 1.9.3~rc1-1 | 15:13 |
| doko_ | ahh, ok | 15:13 |
| lucas | we are very likely to stick with 1.9.3 in wheezy, yes | 15:13 |
| jdstrand | I'm guessing that is because of the early 1.9 prerelease snapshots | 15:14 |
| lucas | there will be a few, bugfix-only updates | 15:14 |
| lucas | the stable branches of ruby tend to be maintained quite reasonably | 15:14 |

| ricotz | hello, is this a known debhelper problem "dpkg-shlibdeps: error: package. is not a valid version" on precise? | 15:49 |
| cjwatson | ricotz: if it is it is certainly not affecting all packages | 15:53 |
| cjwatson | ricotz: sounds more like a broken shlibs file to me | 15:53 |
| cjwatson | ricotz: I noticed that in cogl - is that what you're looking at? | 15:57 |
| ricotz | cjwatson, yes, and a custom cairo packages which uses a splitted symbols file too | 16:09 |
| cjwatson | ricotz: so I think this is probably junk in the shlibs file and that that would be a good place to start investigating; I can't reproduce this with a cogl/i386 build in pbuilder | 16:12 |
| cjwatson | ICBW of course but it doesn't look like a general debhelper problem at this point, to me | 16:12 |

| ricotz | i havent built it locally yet, but this failed on i386 and amd64 | 16:13 |
| cjwatson | ok, so build locally and then peer at the shlibs files; maybe also run with DH_VERBOSE=1 | 16:14 |
| ricotz | cjwatson, alright, will do, thanks | 16:14 |

| ricotz | cjwatson, this debhelper problem is caused by "/var/lib/dpkg/info/libegl1-mesa:amd64.symbols", so it seems like debhelper changed its behaviour here | 18:01 |
| ricotz | libEGL.so.1 libegl1-mesa #MINVER# | libegl1-x11 | 18:01 |
| ricotz | # package. | 18:01 |
| ricotz | _eglBindContext@Base 7.8.1 | 18:01 |
| slangasek | no, debhelper doesn't interact with symbols files | 18:03 |
| slangasek | dpkg-shlibdeps / dpkg-gensymbols do all the work | 18:03 |
| ricotz | slangasek, ok, it looks like the "old" one left this comment part in the symbols file which looks like | 18:04 |
| ricotz | +libEGL.so.1 libegl1-mesa #MINVER# | libegl1-x11 | 18:04 |
| ricotz | + # These are all internal symbols between libEGL and the | 18:04 |
| ricotz | + # drivers. Handle the dependency explicitly in the driver | 18:04 |
| ricotz | + # package. | 18:04 |
| ricotz | + (regex)"^_egl.*@Base$" 7.8.1 | 18:04 |
| slangasek | so it looks like a dpkg-shlibdeps behavior change; I can confirm that comment was present in /var/lib/dpkg/info/libegl1-mesa:amd64.symbols in oneiric, and we didn't have the build failure there | 18:04 |
| slangasek | is rebuilding libegl1 enough to fix the broken comment? | 18:05 |
| ricotz | slangasek, havent checked, i was looking at the cogl and my cairo failures which leads to this | 18:05 |
| cjwatson | I'm failing to find any relevant changes in dpkg | 18:09 |
| cjwatson | it seems to think comments must start at the beginning of a line ("#" not " #") in both oneiric and precise | 18:11 |
| slangasek | looks like it might be a difference in the packages actually being pulled in as build-dependencies? | 18:13 |
| slangasek | building cogl in oneiric doesn't use libegl1-mesa | 18:13 |
| ricotz | cjwatson, looks like it, but why are two lines stripped and one left in? | 18:13 |
| slangasek | so maybe libegl1-mesa is busted in oneiric but nothing uses it | 18:13 |
| ricotz | slangasek, the armel build does | 18:13 |
| slangasek | oh, that's going to be actual work to test | 18:14 |
| slangasek | alright | 18:14 |
| slangasek | go go gadget cross-compiler | 18:14 |
| ricotz | slangasek, you can try this too https://launchpad.net/~ricotz/+archive/staging/+sourcepub/2004607/+listing-archive-extra | 18:15 |
| ricotz | which uses libegl on all archs | 18:15 |
| cjwatson | ricotz: I haven't parsed my way all the way through this code, but perhaps the shorter line with only one word in the comment looks enough like a legitimate symbol line that dpkg's parser retains it | 18:16 |
| ricotz | and went fine on oneiric | 18:16 |
| ricotz | cjwatson, could be, the other lines have more spaces | 18:17 |
| slangasek | pfffff, can't cross-compile cogl because of gir | 18:19 |
| slangasek | ok | 18:20 |
| zul | slangasek: is there a reason why we cant have samba 3.6.0 for percise | 18:22 |
| ricotz | slangasek, mesa build fails too on precise | 18:23 |
| slangasek | zul: I don't know; currently it's only in experimental, please don't merge it from there as the packaging is not current wrt various improvements in unstable | 18:23 |
| zul | slangasek: k | 18:23 |
| slangasek | zul: as for whether it's ready for prime time and should be included in precise, I can't say - I suggest posting to the mailing list (pkg-samba-maint@lists.alioth.debian.org) to find out what bubulle's planned timeline is for unstable | 18:24 |
| ricotz | slangasek, cjwatson so this is parsed as valid entry instead of being ignored | 18:24 |
| zul | slangasek: k i will | 18:25 |
| cjwatson | ricotz: regardless of parser bugs, the file is buggy | 18:25 |
| cjwatson | the leading space before # should be dropped | 18:25 |
| cjwatson | (though I can't say for sure that that will fix the bug) | 18:25 |
| slangasek | kees: are you planning to take care of the merges that you're TIL on, or would you like me to find someone else to do them? | 18:26 |
| ricotz | cjwatson, i already pinged RAOF and Sarvatt ^ and now again ;) | 18:26 |
| slangasek | kees: oh, pam is one of them, I guess I know someone who could do that merge ;P | 18:26 |
| slangasek | RAOF: say, what's the difference between a fake merge from experimental and a real one? (mesa) | 18:27 |
| slangasek | ricotz: since I have Debian XSF commit rights, I'll go ahead and commit the fix now to the Debian git | 18:27 |
| ricotz | slangasek, ok | 18:28 |
| cjwatson | slangasek: it does occur that the parser bug might misfire even without the leading space, so still worth testing ... | 18:28 |
| slangasek | cjwatson: yep, will do | 18:29 |
| kees | slangasek: please feel free to find other folks if I'm blocking. I probably won't have time for merges for a few weeks | 18:30 |
| slangasek | kees: ack - I don't know that anything's blocked currently, but I'd rather we not let things like sudo linger until FF :) | 18:31 |
| kees | hehe | 18:32 |
| slangasek | cjwatson: what do you think about changing MoM to spit out UNRELEASED as a changelog target instead of the current devel dist? | 18:32 |
| slangasek | cjwatson, ricotz: confirmed that egl1-using cairo package builds fine on oneiric in spite of this broken .symbols file comment, so something certainly seems to have changed in dpkg | 18:34 |

| ricotz | ah, i see | 18:53 |
| c2tarun | hi, my system froze few minutes ago, I have to power reboot, is there any way to know the reason by viewing log files/ | 19:01 |
| cjwatson | I think on the whole working on a library transition with a half-day build queue is too frustrating and I should do something else for a while instead | 19:04 |
| highvoltage | I suggest some ice-cream, cjwatson. | 19:05 |
| cjwatson | ... but icecream isn't involved in this library transition - no, wait | 19:06 |
| nigelb | I as about to suggest alcohol, but I see the irony in suggesting icecream :) | 19:06 |
| stgraber | slangasek: for that ifupdown bug, I confirmed that it's a regression in the 0.7 series (reproduced on Debian using unstable and then installing the latest ifupdown from experimental). I'll file a bug and then see if I can maybe figure out the fix (I tend to get lost in ifupdown's code...) | 19:21 |

| micahg | are there any plans for xz debs on images for P? | 22:25 |
| slangasek | what plans do you have in mind? I believe we already went through several cycles ago and changed the compression type for all the low-hanging fruit | 22:26 |
| micahg | slangasek: oh? I thought there were issues w/it for the live fs I was thinking Firefox/Chromium since they're huge | 22:31 |
| slangasek | there are issues in that compressing .debs has no impact whatsoever on livefs size | 22:31 |
| cjwatson | micahg: you're welcome to use it for individual debs, as long as you Pre-Depends: dpkg (>= 1.15.6) | 22:31 |
| cjwatson | but as slangasek says, it won't affect the livefs | 22:32 |
| micahg | cjwatson: ok, it might be worthwhile for bandwidth issues though since we update these often, I'll make the changes if there are no objections. what about in a stable release? would this be something we could switch safely | 22:33 |
| cjwatson | I can't advise making non-required changes in stable releases | 22:33 |
| micahg | ok, will ask pitti about it later | 22:33 |
| cjwatson | I mean that's a no vote (though not a veto) from me, not "no opinion" | 22:34 |
| cjwatson | it's definitely not possible for lucid | 22:34 |
| cjwatson | it didn't have a new enough dpkg | 22:34 |
| micahg | ah, ok, will discuss amongst my team then, yeah, not for lucid, but for everything later, I can at least do it for Precise though | 22:34 |
| cjwatson | yes | 22:35 |
| cjwatson | after precise we'll be able to drop the Pre-Depends | 22:35 |
