achiangmicahg: ok, thanks03:13
stgraberRAOF: hey there03:52
stgraberRAOF: thanks for accepting the vlan package03:53
stgraberRAOF: as for the extra delta in the ifenslave-2.6 SRU (one line change for /run + documentation), the idea was that reverting these just for the sake of having a smaller delta isn't probably worth it as indeed the /run change isn't needed (but won't make any change as /run is a symlink /var/run in Oneiric already) and the documentation would just be inaccurate if reverted03:54
stgraberRAOF: keeping these two changes gives us the advantage of having an identical package in Oneiric and Precise, making diffing the two quite a bit easier (if we start getting more changes in Precise) and so making debugging easier03:55
RAOFFair enough.03:55
RAOFAccepted03:57
stgraberRAOF: thanks04:03
stgraberRAOF: I just posted instructions for the vlan package. I'll do the same for the ifenslave-2.6 package tomorrow, then that should be all that's needed for that bug. I'll test the full stack from -proposed on a server I have around that's affected by the issue and hopefully the bug reporter will do the same (AFAIK he's currently running the Precise version of these packages on Oneiric)04:04

smbslangasek, no I think that is in the main vg. but /boot would be differen09:01
slangasekok09:02
slangasekI was specifically looking at the /etc/init/gssd.conf job, which triggers the bug if /usr is a separate filesystem09:02
slangasekbut if that's not it on your system, nevermind; it probably doesn't matter which job it is09:02
smbOk, still need to reactivate that machine to get the cmdline. Just refrained as it is a tad loud09:03
slangasekcmdline probably doesn't matter now09:04
slangasekdon't worry about it - I think we've got a pretty solid reproducer now09:04

smbslangasek, good night. rather surprised to see you around anyway. (actually not, you are sometimes up at surprising times)09:05
pittimvo: btw, should I binNEW apt now? this requires a full ABI transition, right?09:20
mvopitti: slangasek uploaded it, but I assume the answer is yes, binaryNEW please :) the transition should be smooth as its a proper lib package now, once its there I can upload the rdepends09:27
pittimvo: just asking because this evening is alpha-2 freeze, so I suppose we shuoldn't release it with an unfinished apt transition09:30
mvopitti: if unsure we can wait for slangasek but given that its uploaded I would say lets do it all the way, it should be fine and we prepared it in a ppa and experimental09:30

alkisgRight I think the last git numbers that you're using aren't very appropriate for version numbers, they got me a "newer version has a lower dpkg number" problem12:50
alkisgIt'd also be nice if we put win32-loader.exe somewhere, either in the CDs or in the web site... That puts grub.mbr + ipxe.lkrn to the *windows* boot manager, but it can't be compiled in ubuntu without workarounds because we're missing a few debian packages like cpio-win32 something12:51

hallynjodh: is upstart supposed to build in sbuild right now?14:55

jodhhallyn: thanks - do you have the rest of the log though? Need to see atleast a couple of lines of context arond the line showing BAD or FAIL15:41

or4n9ecyphermox: do you have a few?19:52
cyphermoxor4n9e: certainly19:52
or4n9ecyphermox: great. basically I was going to re-compile bluez in order to --enable-test configure flag just to find out that it's already enabled19:53
cyphermoxok19:53
cyphermoxoh... maybe those aren't being run though, and if not we should definitely fix that19:53
or4n9ebut ... I need bdaddr tool from bluez test directory and although --test-enable is ON it isn't shipped with ubuntu's default bluez distribution19:53
cyphermoxoh, you mean those tests19:54
dokosmoser, ping19:54
cyphermoxor4n9e: what does bdaddr do?19:54
smoserdoko, here.19:54
or4n9ethere are SOME test utils build, so thee flag isn't useless at all but bdaddr isn't built19:54
smoseri've not installed your ppa :-( but if you'd like i can do that "right now"19:54
or4n9ecyphermox: bdaddr changes bdaddr on supported chipsets19:55
cyphermoxor4n9e: ok. I guess you've looked that a fair amount already, were you able to make it get built?19:55

or4n9ecyphermox: nope, I haven't dealed with the wiimote thingy yet (nor may I provide better info here, I just read on the interwebz that there are some people complaining about the missing bdaddr in debian/ubuntu and compile it themselves)20:07
or4n9ecyphermox: I myself just need bdaddr with a shell script, so it's more of a personal issue than a "bug" interesting to the general user20:08
