dokoRiddell, strange, it seems to be just installable. just did give it back00:02

infinitydoko: (I was about to look into the same thing, since webkit's getting close to done)00:53

micahgpitti: did you decide chromium was sitting in -proposed long enough?07:09
pittimicahg: there was a v-done on it07:09
micahgorly?07:09
pittiwas that wrong?07:09
micahgpitti: oh, that was on one of the other bugs in the changelog :), meh, I just never got to testing it on oneiric since I had to update it to a newer release anyways, there was an issue with M15 which I was hoping was fixed in a newer stable release that I haven't pushed yet07:11
pittimicahg: it seems Pedro tested it quite extensively07:11
micahgI think I pushed it to lucid though, and there was only the one complaint07:11
micahgpitti: ah, let's run with that then :)07:12
pittimicahg: so, should the SRU team generally refrain from pushing chromium until you say the word?07:12
micahgpitti: well, there were multiple bugs, not all v-done, I would think it's the same as any other SRU in that regard07:12
micahgpitti: but in general, it needs someone to ACK that it's been tested07:12
micahgin this case, i'd say pedro's testing can suffice07:12

pittiso, the next precise_probs.html will look like http://people.canonical.com/~pitti/tmp/precise_probs.html09:10
infinitypitti: Including teeny-tiny fonts?09:13
pittiinfinity: oh, are they too small in your browser?09:13
pittiI can bump them from x-small to small09:13

=== Guest37602 is now known as jpds
infinitypitti: Also, when the apt message is "not going to be installed" instead of "not installable", you may want to drill down further to find the root cause.09:16
pittiindeed I also played with -o Debug::pkgProblemResolver=true, but it's not particularly helpful09:17
pittibut yes, trying to install both will give a better error message then09:17
pittiI'll look into this09:17
infinityIf "apt-get install foo" gives you "Depends: bar, but it is not going to be installed", then "apt-get foo bar" will give you the next level of icky.09:18
infinityI also had some nice Perl lying around that does all this by parsing package files.09:18
pittiright, that's what I usually do09:18
infinityWas written by wouter to do sane dep-wait detection in sbuild.. And I never integrated it into the Ubuntu sbuild (don't ask me why).  I can dig it up.09:19
infinityI really should polish it off and get it in lp-buildd.09:19
infinitypitti: http://grep.be/blog/en/computer/debian/dep-wait-parser09:19
pittiinfinity: at that point it's pretty much recursive britney :)09:22
pittithanks for the link09:22
infinitypitti: Yeah, reuse of britney's code in britney would lead to similar results (and, I assume, less forking).09:22
infinitypitti: Was just example code. ;)09:22
infinitypitti: (And a reminder to myself to jam it into launchpad-buildd... Three years late isn't too late, is it?)09:23

pitticjwatson: ^ more useful apt output now09:54
pittikubuntu-full is still a mystery to me (it doesn't have apt output because it succeeds)09:54
cjwatsonI didn't understand that either; I assumed it must be a bug somewhere inside britney, but couldn't see what09:55
cjwatsonyou probably need to step through it to figure that out09:55

Laneydoes the britney run for precise_probs only consider main packages?10:29
pittiLaney: yes10:29
LaneyI'm wondering if we can get the raw uninstallable data out somehow, even better for the whole archive10:29
pittiLaney: IIRC running it on the whole universe would take weeks, it's an O(n^2) or worse problem10:30
cjwatsonI believe it's NP10:30
Laneyyeah, it is10:30
cjwatsonbut there's debcheck already10:30
pittiLaney: apt-cache unmet with some filtering might do perhaps10:30
cjwatsonhttp://qa.ubuntuwire.org/debcheck/10:30
Laneyyeah10:31
Laneywhy isn't that used for probs?10:31
cjwatsonerr because different software stacks and no time10:31
Laneyok I was just wondering if one was different somehow10:31
cjwatson(also I don't know how long it takes to do a full run; precise_probs is hourly and needs to be quick10:31
cjwatson)10:31

pittimeh, armel buildds are severely underpowered now that we lent many of them to armhf11:31
tsdgeospitti: i think you guys don't understand that poppler-data is not only for CJK languages11:37
pittitsdgeos: I do understand it11:38
tsdgeospitti: so? why cripple pdf viewing by default?11:38
pittitsdgeos: but the chance that e. g. an English speaker needs it is quite small, whereas in the CJK area you pretty much need it all the time11:38
pittitsdgeos: as I said, we don't put it on the CD because it's quite large and not needed in areas with latin languages11:39
pittitsdgeos: we could certianly have language-selector install it for all languages, though11:39
pittithat should provide a better compromise11:39
tsdgeos"an English speaker needs it is quite small" <- why?11:39
pittitsdgeos: well, because they don't usually read Chinese documents?11:40
tsdgeosand as i told you11:40
tsdgeosyou do not understand that poppler-data is not only for chinese documents11:40
tsdgeosthere is English documents11:40

tsdgeosno11:40

tsdgeosit's "usually" used for CJK languages only11:41
pittiright11:41
pittie. g. I never looked at a document which needed it11:41
tsdgeoswell11:41
tsdgeosi have11:41
tsdgeosdifferene i'm the poppler maintaner and you are not ;-)11:41
pittiyes, I believe you11:41
pittiI did NOT say that no non-CJK speaker would ever need it11:42
pittiI said that the chance is considerably smaller11:42
tsdgeosok11:42
pittiso we install it from the network for langauges with a high chance of needing them11:42
tsdgeosfair enough11:42
pittiand as I said, we could extend that to install it for all languages11:42
pittiit's an additional 11 MB for everyone then, which will rarely, if ever, be used, but it would provide that support for legacy encodings11:43
tsdgeosit's up to you11:44
tsdgeosi can only say that there is regular bug reports about people not being able to read documents because poppler-data is not installed11:44

doko_pitti, did you fix openoffice.org for armhf as well?11:51
pittidoko_: yes, it wasn't an exclusion but an inclusion11:51

=== Guest5602 is now known as ryanakca
pittiseems to make more sense to me11:52
pittieven if it exists on arm* some day, the oo.o-base transitional isn't needed as oo.o-base never existed on arm* before11:52
pittithe oo.o source can go away entirely after precise11:52
infinitypitti: Erm, you fixed it by making the source not build on arm at all?11:54
pittiinfinity: yes, so that it'll become NBS11:54
infinitypitti: Oh, derp.  It's all arch:all.11:54
infinitypitti: Nevermind. :)11:54
pittiinfinity: not any more :)11:54
infinitypitti: I was just wondering why there were only 3 arches building, then brain kicked in.11:54
pittiit should be NBS after the next publisher11:54
pittithen I'll remove it11:55
infinitypitti: Yeah, I meant "all the packages arm cares about are arch:all".11:55
cjwatsoninfinity: ~ubuntu-archive/public_html/armhf/ doesn't seem to be owned by ubuntu-archive throughout11:55
infinitycjwatson: I've been rsyncing to it as me, so yeah, seems possible.11:56
cjwatsoninfinity: could you 'mkdir -p dists/precise/main/debian-installer/binary-armhf && touch dists/precise/main/debian-installer/binary-armhf/Packages' in there, please?11:56
cjwatsonoh, and possibly regenerate Release11:56
infinityMy hackish Release gen script won't do that.  But can fix.11:57
cjwatsonthat'll help the debian-installer build11:57
cjwatsonAh, if you've scripted it, possibly best that I couldn't write to it directly.11:57
infinitycjwatson: Regenerating now.12:04
cjwatsonpitti: I fixed the ordering in archive-reports a bit so that the chdist update is guaranteed to complete before precise_probs is generated, since you're relying on that now12:09

infinitycjwatson: That look good?12:11

infinitycjwatson: Was it just barfing because it expects a main/d-i component matching every line in sources.list?12:12

infinityExcept, that shouldn't matter.12:20

infinityAt that point.12:21
cjwatsonBut it might well pick the last of two claimed distinct SHA256 sums for a given file.12:21

smoserpsusi, yes, you can.16:32
smoserand that is actually how uecalyptus loads... but then you have to deal with the host knowing the kernel parameters of the guest, and you can't (easily) update your guest kernel and reboot.16:33
smoserso... grub makes lots of sense. timeout is zero on EC2 images, but we do have a 5 second (i think) timeout in the images by default. that could be addressed. the reason is to allow the user to get in if they're booting in kvm. thats less important now than it used to be, thoug. previously the only way you could reasonably use the image in kvm was to modify the command line parameters.16:34

broderi didn't think debtags were published in the main archive at al18:48
lifelessthey are not currently18:49
broderoh, is that changing?18:49
lifelessWhat I want to know is where apt etc look for them today18:49
lifelesssoftware centre would like them published; we're trying to see what can be done18:50
tumbleweedon debian, they are in Packages18:50
Laneydoko: uploaded, sync when LP knows about -718:50
Laneyor I will18:50
enricolifeless: apt looks for them in the Packages file; software-centre uses apt-xapian-index for searches, and apt-xapian-index can be fed using plugins18:51
enricolifeless: however, I'm not sure what software-centre does for visualization of tag data18:51
lifelessenrico: doesn't today as they aren't published18:51
enricolifeless: tags can be extracted from apt-xapian-index rather easily18:51
lifelessenrico: so apt can't use a lookaside file ?18:51
enricolifeless: a-x-i can read them from /var/lib/debtags/package-tags using its debtags.py plugin, for example18:52
enricolifeless: apt can't use a lookaside file afaik18:52
enricolifeless: for the record, the procedure to extract them from a-x-i is to look for all terms starting with 'XT' in a document18:52
enricolifeless: the document can be looked up searching the term 'XPpackagename'18:53
lifelesshttps://dev.launchpad.net/LEP/DebTags18:53
lifelessthat lep talks about using a separate file18:54
lifelessI guess based on this discussion that that is science fiction?18:54
enricolifeless: I don't know APT or software-centre's code enough to be able to tell, I recon you'd have to talk to the respective authors18:55
enricolifeless: tags don't change that often, so pdiffs would have little size difference with/without tags18:56
enricolifeless: but I'm more the right person for tag algorithms, or for setting up tag feeds from Debian to Ubuntu and vice versa, for example, rather than for apt or software-centre work18:57
slangasekI don't believe Ubuntu is currently doing pdiffs at all, though18:58
slangasekor is that part of the proposal?18:58
lifelessits not18:58
enricoslangasek: it's not. Sorry for mentioning them, I didn't know Ubuntu wasn't doing them18:58
lifelessthe question revolves around the cost of change for the publisher18:58
slangasekyes, we'd like faster publishing, not slower, please ;)18:59
lifelessadding in a new table, API's to maintain it, and retuning the publisher to snarf the additional data is a bit of work18:59
lifelessdoing an async snarf-and-emit of a tag set to a separate unsigned file would have less impact and be easier I suspect18:59

infinitypsusi: But converting it to 3.0 (quilt) is on my todo.21:19
infinitypsusi: When I can sneak it past lamont. ;)21:20
broderroadmr: i probably wouldn't introduce an "ubuntu" component since there wasn't one there before. i think i would pick something like 0.12.8.121:21
roadmrbroder: oh that looks nicer21:21
infinityErr.21:22
infinityNo.21:22
stgraberroadmr: I usually use the example from https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityTeam/UpdatePreparation#Packaging as they cover most use cases. So based on that it should be 0.12.8ubuntu0.1, but as broder said, as your package is native to Ubuntu and not Debian, just adding .1 is probably fine21:22
infinityOh, if it's Ubuntu-native, then yeah.  No ubuntu needed.21:22
roadmrstgraber: yep, that's the example I'm looking at21:22
stgraberinfinity: yeah, checkbox is one of these weird ubuntu-native packages that's not a meta package :)21:22
infinitystgraber: One of the three? ;)21:23
roadmrinfinity: yep, native (i.e. we're the upstream anyway) - but I don't think I can do a "microrelease" as our 0.12 branch is up to 0.12.11 and has some non-sruable changes21:23
roadmrinfinity: so ubuntu's 0.12.9 would be different from upstream's 0.12.9 (feels wrong)21:23
infinityroadmr: Right, that would be wrong.21:23
infinityroadmr: 0.12.8.1 is fine.21:23
broderthat being said, it's pretty weird that checkbox is versioned as debian/ubuntu-native21:23
infinityIf it has "upstream" releases, it shouldn't be natively-packaged, no.21:24
infinityBut fixing that in an SRU is also wrong. :P21:24
broderagreed :)21:24
stgraberyeah, checkbox really should split its packaging out of the upstream branch, actually make proper release tarball and have a nice -0ubuntuX version number like the rest of the world21:24
stgraberbut I know I've already been complaining a few times about it (every time I have to review/sponsor it) without much changing so far...21:25
roadmrstgraber: sorry, I'll try to have a look at the versioning for this cycle, I'm just getting acquainted with how versioning works21:25

roadmrOooo, checkbox in debian!21:26
infinityOriginal-Maintainer: Marc Tardif <marc@ubuntu.com>21:26
infinityI take it back.21:26
stgraberroadmr: that'd be great if you could fix that this cycle indeed. Would make packaging by other distros much easier and also make reviewing/sponsoring easier because you'd be like the rest of the world :)21:26
roadmrstgraber: but we want to be different, just like everyone else :P21:27
infinityWell, "other distros" won't happen unless it has pluggable backends or something, I suspect.21:27

psusilamont: so if I make changes, just make them directly?  won't that cause a conflict when merging the same change from upstream later though?21:55
infinitypsusi: Not if it's identical to an upstream commit, no.21:55
psusiright, but if there is the slightest little difference...21:55
infinityThen there's a conflict.  We're smart people.21:56
infinityIsh.21:56
psusihrm... trying to figure out how to effectively deal with that... I mean, as far as I know, you can't see ohh, local commit foo and remote commit foo are the problem... they look the same, so drop local foo, the way you can with quilt patches21:58
infinityOf course you can.21:59
lamontpsusi: it's doable.  sometimes it sucks, but mostly it's not so bad21:59
infinitypsusi: We import your change as a revision in git.  We merge upstream git.  Conflict.  Resolve.  It's obvious which was from where.22:00
psusihow?  I mean, bzr just tells you there's a conflict, go fix it.. but not the conflict is between local commit foo, and remote commit bar22:00
infinitypsusi: (Granted, it's even better if you just tell lamont which upstream commit you want, and he can cherry-pick the actual commit)22:00
infinitypsusi: Cause then that will retain ancestry and auto-resolve its own damned self.22:00
psusiit's not committed yet, just posted to the ml today :)22:01
infinityAhh. ;)22:01
dr3mrohello , I am trying to create a ppa for daily build of a project i am not the owner of it hosted on google code but it fails when i enter the repository address in launchpad https://code.google.com/p/plowshare22:37

htorquebdmurray: hi! about bug 899683 - are you sure it should be a dupe of the no space left master bug?22:48

slangasekcjwatson: hi, question on bug #77137222:59
ubottuLaunchpad bug 771372 in procps (Ubuntu Oneiric) "procps runs too early in the boot process" [Medium,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/77137222:59
slangasekcjwatson: why does this only show up when the installer is upgrading the package, vs. initial install?23:00
slangasekcjwatson: i.e., is there an installer bug there too, which causes diversions to be removed between the install and upgrade bits?23:01
slangasekhmm, looks like debootstrap diverts initctl, after which it's restored23:02
cjwatsonslangasek: Possible, but fixing that in a stable release seems even sketchier ...23:03
cjwatsonchroot-setup.sh is supposed to divert initctl too23:03
slangasekright; I'm not proposing fixing that in a stable release, but I want to understand what's actually happening here - and make sure the bugs get fixed for precise if need be23:04
bdmurrayhtorque: could you elaborate regarding what you choose when partitiioning?23:04
htorquebdmurray: the default "erase all and use whole disk"23:05
cjwatsonslangasek: There is something odd there, indeed.  I don't quite see what; visually, the code seems right23:08
slangasekcjwatson: should I raise a bug on debian-installer?23:08
cjwatsonslangasek: yes please23:08

cjwatsonthanks23:38
cjwatsonincidentally, it's not technically impossible to fix post-release, just difficult to ensure that the fix goes everywhere relevant ...23:39
slangasekcjwatson: right :)23:43
slangasekoh heh; I've just realized that the procps change that was being SRUed is broken on lucid/maverick/natty anyway.  Guess I'll rescind that23:44
