semitonesdoes ubuntu-bug check for duplicates before submitting?04:15
greg-gsemitones: it sends the info to LP, LP then processes it, you put in a title, then the duplicate check is done, then you have the opportunity to submit or cancel04:18
greg-gso, ubuntu-bug doesn't, but LP does before it is really submitted04:19
semitonesgreg-g: ok thanks. I'd like to volunteer with triage maybe this summer -- I feel like marking duplicates would help a lot04:19
greg-gsemitones: it does, indeed. And there's no reason to not start now! ;)04:20
semitonesheh, maybe after I get out of the woods in terms of schoolwork04:21
greg-gluckily, LP is getting pretty good at finding duplicates so most new bugs that were submitted via Apport (when a crash happens) are identified as diplicates (or not) correctly04:21
semitonesgreg-g: does it become easy to tell when something truly is a duplicate, or when the symptoms of different bugs are the same?04:21
semitonesif you are looking through launchpad04:22
greg-gthe easy ones are easy ("XYZ doesn't have feature ABC" or "XYZ crashed with this error with this data set") but the others can take a bit of investigation04:22
greg-gbut mostly you can figure it out with a couple back and forths with the submitter04:23
micahgubuntu-bug does check first against stuff w/signatures04:24
semitonesgreg-g: because when I submitted a touchpad bug with my hardware and information, LP didn't detect any duplicates, but later I saw a bunch of other people having similar problems, and wondered if they all had the same cause too04:29
micahgsemitones: hardware bugs are best submitting again in case the hardware is different04:31
greg-gsemitones: and those are tough for LP to determine as duplicates, so many variables that need to be cehcked by people04:31
semitonesit looked like a lot of them had to do with ALPS pointing devices04:32
semitonesi just grouped all the alps pointing devices bugs into this one (had the most people affected). hope that helps https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/74709204:49
ubot4Launchpad bug 747092 in xserver-xorg-input-synaptics (Ubuntu) (and 1 other project) "[FUJITSU FMVNP2PL] edge scrolling does not work (affects: 10) (dups: 4) (heat: 69)" [Undecided,Invalid]04:49
micahgsemitones: the Xorg team prefers separate bugs from each submitter since the hardware could be different and might need different drivers04:53
micahgs/Xorg/X/04:54
semitonesoh :/ should i unduplicate them04:54
micahgsemitones: hold on, let me grab someone04:56
micahghi RAOF, so semitones duplicated some xorg bugs into bug 747092 before I mentioned that the X team prefers separate bugs for each submitter due to possible different hardware and was wondering if they should be unduped04:58
ubot4Launchpad bug 747092 in xserver-xorg-input-synaptics (Ubuntu) (and 1 other project) "[FUJITSU FMVNP2PL] edge scrolling does not work (affects: 10) (dups: 4) (heat: 69)" [Undecided,Invalid] https://launchpad.net/bugs/74709204:58
RAOFHm.  Even more so; that's a kernel bug, and they really don't like duplicates not done by themselves.05:00
RAOFAlthough at least some of them appear to be duplicates.05:02
micahgRAOF: ah, sorry for dragging you in here then05:03
RAOFNo problem :)05:03
* micahg appears to need a caffeine boost to help with reading at this hour05:03
semitonesthanks :)05:03
semitonesI also wanted to try installing the mainline kernel and trying to replicate the bug05:05
semitonesdoes it matter that I'm using maverick and not oneiric though05:05
RAOFWell, that _would_ replicate it, as the only reason it works on dell machines is that we've got a non-upstream patch fudging stuff :)05:05
semitoneshmm, because the bug says it will be marked for expiration soon, so I thought I had to do something to keep it valid05:06
semitonesit would be useful if there were a live usb image made for new development kernels, and you could zsync to get it.05:13
RAOFISTR there was such a usb at one point, but it was a lot of effort to maintain.05:25
LaibschI'd appreciate if somebody who is familiar with the maintainer scripts had a look at bug 881806 to help with triage05:55
ubot4Launchpad bug 881806 in icecc (Ubuntu) (and 1 other project) "icecc does not remove cleanly (affects: 1) (heat: 6)" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/88180605:55
micahgLaibsch: you should probably as in -motu06:05
Laibschmicahg: what's the purpose of this channel?  it's been pretty quiet recently.06:06
micahgLaibsch: to help triage/file bugs06:07
Laibschthat's what I'm requesting ;-)06:07
micahgright, but maintainer scripts are something you want a dev to look at06:07

alourieis bug 26394 still relevant? I think no. Unless we still support it in older releases...10:27

bullgard4[GNOME Shell 3.2] Rather often I cannot terminate the program »system monitor« normally. Then the  process »gnome-system-monitor« persists and takes 12% of the CPU processing time. Is this worth reporting to Launchpad?18:26
