| infinity | cjwatson: Oh, hrm. I suppose I could fix this in base-files-udeb instead. | 00:31 |
|---|---|---|
| cjwatson | Please tell me there isn't a base-files-udeb. | 00:31 |
| cjwatson | Do you mean rootskel? | 00:31 |
| infinity | Oh, or, whatever has the base filesystem. :P | 00:31 |
| cjwatson | Doesn't seem like the ideal place to work around PI things, though. | 00:32 |
| infinity | I hadn't looked. | 00:32 |
| infinity | Well, that's how amd64 works around it. | 00:32 |
| infinity | By shipping the lib64 -> lib symlink. | 00:32 |
| infinity | If I fix this in mklibs (which doesn't look too painful), that could go away. | 00:32 |
| cjwatson | True. | 00:32 |
| cjwatson | So you mean a /lib/armhfouyqwourtuwtriqur -> /lib symlink? | 00:33 |
| infinity | But it would be just as easy to ship.. .Yeah. | 00:33 |
| infinity | It's one or the other. Symlink the directory, or have mklibs install ldlib to its full path. | 00:33 |
| cjwatson | I guess that wouldn't be totally awful, although a proper fix would be better | 00:33 |
| infinity | The latter feels more correct, but the other hack already exists for amd64. | 00:33 |
| cjwatson | No upgrade problems, at least. | 00:33 |
| cjwatson | So we can switch later. | 00:34 |
| infinity | What, you mean you don't regularly install apt in your d-i initrds and upgrade them? | 00:34 |
| infinity | :P | 00:34 |
| infinity | So, yeah, what's responsible for that lib64 symlink? You reckon rootskel? | 00:35 |
| infinity | Sadly, the d-i build log was unhelpful. | 00:35 |
| cjwatson | rootskel, yes. | 00:35 |
| cjwatson | ./debian/rootskel.links.amd64:1:lib lib64 | 00:35 |
| cjwatson | lp:~ubuntu-core-dev/rootskel/ubuntu | 00:36 |
| cjwatson | Yeah, let's go with that | 00:36 |
| infinity | Yeah. It feels more correct to fix it in mklibs, but I'm also not sure what fallout that might cause when it tries to install amd64's PI to /lib64 | 00:37 |
| infinity | (which is correct, but I have no idea what order these things happen in) | 00:37 |
| cjwatson | We'd have to fix mklibs then upload eglibc and rootskel at around the same time, yes. | 00:38 |
| infinity | eglibc wouldn't need an upload. | 00:38 |
| infinity | It gets ldlib path from readelf. | 00:39 |
| cjwatson | Oh, yeah, duh | 00:39 |
| infinity | Where it lives in the udeb is irrelevant. | 00:39 |
| infinity | As I discoverde. :P | 00:39 |
| infinity | discovered, too. | 00:39 |
| cjwatson | The d-i build system unpacks all the base udebs (probably in roughly alpha order) and then runs mklibs. | 00:39 |
| cjwatson | So if it has a symlink there it might even work OK. | 00:39 |
| infinity | But yeah, I could remove the link from rootskel and fix mklibs. It's tempting. | 00:40 |
| infinity | Or, true, if the link's already in place, it would probably DTRT, since it's not absolute. | 00:40 |
| cjwatson | right | 00:40 |
| infinity | Yeah, maybe I'll fix this the way that seems more elegant, even if it's more work. | 00:40 |
| infinity | Cause adding a new symlink for any new arch with a m-a PI seems broken. | 00:41 |
| cjwatson | At run-time, udpkg basically just extracts stuff by calling tar | 00:41 |
| cjwatson | It wants libc6-udeb when it gets to the point of retrieving further installer components beyond its base system, since only the base system gets reduced so it needs a full libc at that point | 00:41 |
| cjwatson | Still a bit odd that it worked before that point for Tobin. | 00:42 |
| infinity | I'm moderately unsure as to what Tobin's breakage is right now. I'll need to play. | 00:43 |
| cjwatson | I can't quite think why specifically unpacking a new libc6-udeb would have hosed things if the problem was that the PI was in the wrong place. | 00:43 |
| infinity | Well, he moved his PI to the right place manually and repacked the initrd. | 00:43 |
| infinity | Otherwise, he would have never gotten that far. | 00:44 |
| infinity | Does udpkg freak out about overwriting unowned files? | 00:44 |
| infinity | I suppose it couldn't possibly, or this reduction business would fail horribly. | 00:45 |
| * infinity blinks and wonders where qemu-system-arm went. | 00:46 | |
| infinity | Oh, in universe, in qemu-system. I must have napped through that package split. | 00:48 |
| infinity | Err, wait. | 00:52 |
| infinity | I can't test this with qemu. | 00:52 |
| infinity | No vexpress images. | 00:52 |
| cjwatson | udpkg doesn't give a shit about file ownership. | 00:55 |
| cjwatson | In fact it doesn't track it. | 00:55 |
| cjwatson | qemu doesn't have other arm targets yet? Boo. | 00:55 |
| infinity | S'ok. I can test the mklibs stuff locally. I just wanted to see if I could reproduce Tobin's thing. Which will have to wait for my Panda or QuickStart to be idle. | 00:57 |
| infinity | Silly bootstrapping. | 00:57 |
| infinity | Err, just my Panda. | 00:57 |
| infinity | No QS images either. :P | 00:57 |
| cjwatson | Fair enough. I'll leave you to reproduce with Tobin. :-P | 00:57 |
| cjwatson | (I'm sure you needed that image) | 00:57 |
| infinity | Dot dot dot. | 00:58 |
| infinity | I hate you SO MUCH right now. | 00:58 |
| cjwatson | You know, I don't think I know anyone else who spells out ellipses. | 00:58 |
| infinity | Sometimes, you need to. | 00:58 |
| infinity | For maximum effect. | 00:58 |
| infinity | cjwatson: Would appreciate comments and/or laughter on http://lucifer.0c3.net/~adconrad/mklibs.patch | 04:38 |
| infinity | cjwatson: (Presented as an upload to sid rather than precise, as Debian/armhf needs the fix just as badly) | 04:38 |
| infinity | cjwatson: As called by d-i, both mklibs and mklibs-copy appear to DTRT with my patchs for armhf, amd64, and i386. | 04:41 |
| infinity | cjwatson: Can't think of any corner cases that might blow up, but I also didn't feel the overwhelming desire to actually read all of mklibs. | 04:41 |
| cjwatson | infinity: ld_path_name == "/lib/" will never be true, as dirname doesn't return something with a trailing slash | 07:31 |
| cjwatson | (not foo == bar => foo != bar) | 07:33 |
| cjwatson | infinity: I know it was partly pre-existing, but testing os.access(dest_path + "/" + ld_file_name, os.F_OK) seems bizarre - why would the PI *basename* exist in dest_path? Should that be s/ld_file_name/ld_full_path/? | 07:36 |
| cjwatson | (OTOH maybe I'm missing something odd that mklibs does) | 07:36 |
| cjwatson | infinity: seems basically plausible though | 07:37 |
| === jibel_ is now known as jibel | ||
| infinity | cjwatson: No, dest_path is lib/ Which seemed effin' wrong to me too, but that's how the code it written. | 10:56 |
| infinity | s/it/is/ | 10:57 |
| infinity | cjwatson: And point taken on ld_path_name not containing a trailing slash. Oops. | 10:58 |
| infinity | cjwatson: (dest_path being lib instead of root is why I then install to ../ld_full_path) | 11:00 |
| infinity | cjwatson: The whole this is just plain weird. | 11:00 |
| infinity | cjwatson: patch updated. | 11:01 |
| CIA-16 | ubiquity: adconrad * r5108 trunk/ (3 files in 2 dirs): Fix the armhf symlinks to point to actual files | 11:24 |
| ogra_ | hmpf, seems my cia setup is broken, i just released ubiquity 2.9.7 | 12:38 |
| ogra_ | sigh and i'm missing 100MB of build deps ... | 12:42 |
| ogra_ | fun | 12:42 |
| * ogra_ twiddles thumbs waiting for them to install | 12:43 | |
| infinity | ogra_: Are you testbuilding before you upload, after chastising me for wanting to do the same? :P | 13:13 |
| ogra_ | infinity, nope ... | 13:14 |
| infinity | So... You uploaded? | 13:14 |
| ogra_ | but i would appreciate if someone else could upload i dont get my chroot right here and dont want to waste another hour | 13:14 |
| infinity | Oh. I was just going to do an -nc upload. No refresh. | 13:14 |
| infinity | Cause I'm a filthy cheater. | 13:14 |
| ogra_ | it needs bout 100MB build deps to even roll a source package :/ | 13:15 |
| cjwatson | how about I just upload it, guys :) | 13:15 |
| ogra_ | and somehow thats still not working ... its so long ago that i built ubiquity that i have to check the docs ... grmbl | 13:15 |
| ogra_ | cjwatson, please do | 13:15 |
| cjwatson | also just changing the name in the changelog and not adding [ Colin Watson ] (e.g. as dch -r does) is a bit rude :) | 13:16 |
| ogra_ | ah, i was missing a debian/rules update | 13:16 |
| cjwatson | not that I vastly care | 13:16 |
| ogra_ | oops, sorry ... i didnt see a reference to infinity either (though he explained that above) | 13:16 |
| cjwatson | up to people to put themselves in the changelog if they want | 13:17 |
| ogra_ | right, it was just confusing | 13:17 |
| cjwatson | uploading now | 13:19 |
| ogra_ | bah, and now my chroot works :P | 13:20 |
| ogra_ | well, at least i have it ready for next time | 13:20 |
| ogra_ | and i know that armhf chroots work for building source packages :) | 13:20 |
| cjwatson | you don't need most of the build-deps to build the source package anyway | 13:20 |
| ogra_ | well, it complains and stops if i dont have some of the python bits | 13:21 |
| cjwatson | -d | 13:21 |
| ogra_ | (pyflakes etc) | 13:21 |
| cjwatson | oh, yeah, sure, but that's small | 13:21 |
| cjwatson | point is you don't need everything | 13:21 |
| ogra_ | i didnt feel brave enough to -d ... (i noticed the note indeed) | 13:21 |
| ogra_ | well, i have a proper chroot for next time ... so thats already good :) | 13:21 |
| cjwatson | you don't have to be brave; you can try it and then check that the debdiff looks right. | 13:22 |
| infinity | ^ | 13:22 |
| cjwatson | I think you should just need debhelper, dh-di, and pyflakes, maybe one or two other bits. certainly not most of the libraries. | 13:23 |
| infinity | Like I said, I was just going to do an -nc upload. But not if everyone else was falling over themselves to upload. :P | 13:23 |
| cjwatson | -nc is fine if you've done 'debian/rules update' and there were no Python changes, yes. | 13:24 |
| cjwatson | It's worth running 'make -C d-i check' though. | 13:24 |
| ogra_ | hmm, but xz is really bad on arm | 13:28 |
| ogra_ | even ctrl-c'in the xz creation took 5 mins until it got through ... | 13:29 |
| ogra_ | depressing | 13:30 |
| infinity | On which machine? | 13:33 |
| ogra_ | ac100 indeed | 13:33 |
| infinity | The ac100's 512M of RAM doesn't really make it shine. | 13:33 |
| ogra_ | in an armhf chroot | 13:33 |
| infinity | My phone has more. :/ | 13:34 |
| ogra_ | intrestingly compressing inside the hf chroot seems to be lots and lots heavier than unpacking under armel in the host rootfs | 13:34 |
| cjwatson | xz compression is a lot slower than decompression anyway | 13:35 |
| ogra_ | apparently | 13:35 |
| cjwatson | Fairly well-known. | 13:36 |
| cjwatson | (But, for a source package, I'd still rather take a couple of minutes longer and save the space.) | 13:36 |
| ogra_ | but i was hoping that hf improves it a bit | 13:36 |
| ogra_ | vs el | 13:36 |
| cjwatson | I would be surprised if it did any significant floating-point work. | 13:36 |
| ogra_ | yes, apparently it doesnt | 13:36 |
| cjwatson | Compression algorithms rarely do, although there's the odd exception. | 13:36 |
