=== Lutin is now known as Guest97741 [02:55] Woot! I've got a system that refuses to upgrade to precise due to an inability to configure libtinfo5 for libncurses5. How do I get do-release-upgrade to dump enough debugging info for someone to work this out? [03:00] RAOF: it tends to dump enough information into /var/log/dist-upgrade/ by default [03:01] Hah! There it is. [03:19] Now available as bug #924079 [03:19] Launchpad bug 924079 in update-manager (Ubuntu) "do-release-upgrade fails to upgrade from Oneiric to Precise" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/924079 [04:02] i wonder if it makes sense to make the series nomination link visible again but make it a link to a wiki page a la +filebug [04:02] backports has been seeing a non-zero number of bugs that are really SRUs. one person commented today that they were doing it to raise awareness since they couldn't nominate anymore [04:02] i wonder if that's reflective of more of those bugs than we realized [04:03] (yes, i realize that redirecting to the wiki link on +filebug sucks and that nobody likes it) [04:05] * ScottK wonders what the feedback mechanism was meant to be when the nomination link was removed? [04:05] i think it was intended to be #ubuntu-bugs. i'm not sure how people were supposed to discover that [04:07] nominating doesn't necessarily help without someone try drive the patch [04:08] * ScottK was going to guess "We're drowing, we can't afford to care". [04:08] True. [04:08] although, I supposed that the nomination queue could be looked at as a source of things to do if it was used as such [04:09] If anyone much cared about bugs ... [04:10] we care, but we're drowning [04:11] almost 100k open bugs with >50% new [04:11] * micahg is reminded of the need to go through all the Firefox bugs at some point... [04:12] Right, but what's more important, fixing bugs or pushing new features? [04:13] what is it called again, the gnome adhd monkey syndrome? "if i replace the feature, i don't have to fix its bugs!" :) [04:13] Also a lot of those aren't even actually bugs. I know a large fraction of the bugs open against postfix in Ubuntu are PEBKAC issues. [04:13] broder: If it's Gnome, I think you mean remove, not replace. [04:15] hmm...on a side note, i should probably get my rear end moving if pre-release backports is going to be ready by feature freeze, huh? [04:16] would be nice this cycle :) [04:18] i think i made it as far as breaking the lp test suite last time i looked [04:19] broder: you've still got a few days :) [06:21] Good morning [06:24] morning pitti [06:28] hey ajmitch, how are you?

[06:31] * pitti waves back to nigelb [06:31] hi nigelb [07:27] someone please let my ubuntu-devel-announce mail through [07:40] * pitti arghs about listadmin being broken now; apparently something changed in our ML archive [07:43] tumbleweed: done === doko_ is now known as doko === koolhead17 is now known as koolhead17|afk [08:08] good morning [08:14] good morning [08:14] hey dholbach :) [08:16] mvo: :) [08:21] hey zyga-afk [08:23] heya zyga-afk [08:24] does somebody know why the TB mailing list isn't listed on lists.ubuntu.com? Is it on purpose or missed after it changed from private to public? [08:27] geser: I guess the latter; this very much looks like a wiki page [08:32] who to bug about it? (assuming the TB list should appear there) === zyga-afk is now known as zyga === Guest42604 is now known as gord [09:12] hey [09:12] doko, did --as-needed stop being enforced or something? [09:13] it seems that on precise builds with a missing -l... don't fail as they should [09:34] pitti: IME listadmin still works but falls over some random percentage of the time [09:38] cjwatson: hm, it still works for ubuntu-de@ here, but for techboard it has stopped working a few weeks ago; it only gets over "nothing in queue" now from here [09:39] I used it on technical-board@ yesterday [09:39] hm, maybe I'm just unlucky, or it works worse in my mornings [09:41] cjwatson: I was getting high failure rate [09:41] I don't think it is the client, but the service timeing out.

It's an old release, but a trivial fix to a not entirely uncommon usecase [10:07] Launchpad bug 915167 in python-defaults (Ubuntu Natty) "pycompile will use /usr/local/bin/python2.6 if available and python2.6 isn't installed." [Medium,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/915167 [10:11] tumbleweed, we'll remove python2.6 before release [10:12] doko: that was a natty dh_python2 with a local python2.6 installed problem [10:22] zul: err, looks like your mtx and netifaces merges yesterday don't actually contain anything useful. Sync next time? [10:27] cjwatson, apw: what is our policy to ship separately buit kernel modules? I know that we do that for restricted modules, but is this accept for other dkms modules in main? [10:29] i am unsure if there is a policy, cirtainly we have had other dkms packages around, there was an iscsi one for some time [10:30] apw, looking at the openvswitch package [10:30] IIRC it's OK strictly provided that they're dkms [10:30] we've removed non-dkms ones in the past because we couldn't maintain them [10:31] do look into whether they're going to be kept well up to date though ... [10:31] openvswitch is the openstack transport isn't it ? [10:31] so this comes with a openvswitch-datapath-source *and* a openvswitch-datapath-dkms binary package [10:31] yes [10:32] that looks broken indeed [10:32] yeah if its dkms its usually liveable with, and often if it is version tied with userspace having them in the same package is better [10:32] usually, a dkms "binary" package sohuld just ship the source tarball and dkms control script [10:32] but it should be arch: all then [10:32] ah, openvswitch-datapath-dkms is, looked at the wrongone [10:33] Hmm [10:34] so we should stop building openvswitch-datapath-source? [10:35] it looks a little redundant [10:35] but it seems -source would integrate with module-assistant [10:35] whiel -dkms auto-builds with dkms [10:35] right, what benefit do we get from changing t? [10:35] it? [10:35] we certainly shouldn't start supporting module-assistant in main [10:36] delta with debian [10:36] but I guess we can leave that binary in universe? [10:36] jdstrand: security team onto this? http://packetstormsecurity.org/files/109230/advisory_sudo.txt [10:36] doko / pitti: if you want to increase our delta with Debian, are your teams happy to take ownership for it? :) [10:36] Daviey, the MIR team doesn't take ownership of anything ;-P [10:37] heh [10:37] Daviey: err, I wasn't suggesting to change it, just thinking aloud why there are two, and that -source should stay in universe [10:37] Yeah, really - what i am saying, changing the current package; does it increase the maintainability? [10:37] * Daviey feels no [10:37] *nod* [10:39] pitti, poing [10:39] hello MacSlow [10:40] pitti, just wondering if Oneiric will also get the newer libwnck3 at some point (in regards to your wnck_shutdown branch for notify-osd) [10:40] MacSlow: no, it won't [10:40] ok [10:40] MacSlow: but the merge proposal checks the availability during configure [10:40] MacSlow: so it will build fine with older wnck versions [10:40] pitti, sure I've seen that [10:40] pitti, was just curious [10:40] MacSlow: oh, you want it for testing? [10:41] MacSlow: I can certainly give you an oneiric build if you want one [10:41] it just won't go into oneiric officially [10:41] pitti, today I've my notify-osd maintainer hat on again... doing as much as I can on that front atm [10:41] nice! === _salem is now known as salem_ [11:15] Riddell, bug #918289, do we consider ttf as a source format?

[11:17] doko: it's not ideal but yes it can be considered preferred modifiable form [11:17] doko: yes PDF files should be taken seriously by debian and ubuntu [11:18] (plenty of fonts only have .ttf files even though it's not really preferred modifiable form, like the ubuntu one) [11:28] Daviey, could you have a look at bug #891232, it it's an issue for libvirt?

[12:54] doko, well on gold on debian, i.e https://launchpadlibrarian.net/91537462/01_fix-configure-dso-linking.patch is required on Debian apparently where the same source builds fine in precise [12:56] seb128, is it correct that it tries to link the static lib? [12:58] doko, dunno, that doesn't happen here, but I would think that the first bug (the missing -lx11) would stop the build [12:59] doko, I'm not sure to understand the gio one and why the .a is listed there [13:01] doko, hum, I wonder if the gio issue has something to do with "checking if gcc static flag -static works... no" in the debian build log [13:03] seb128, well, have a look at the config.log [13:03] CCLD liblightdm-gobject-1.la [13:03] GISCAN LightDM-1.gir [13:03] seb128, ^^^ could you make this verbose in the build log?

Just click "more" next to top rated inside software center. [14:02] mpt: any way I can easily convert that to a list of text, rather than manually writing them down?

[16:17] yeah [16:17] exactly, not mentioned in debian/copyright. only the upstream apache license is mentioned [16:18] so add debian/* [16:18] doko: ok ill go fix that then [16:18] and the appropriate copyright [16:18] thanks === yofel_ is now known as yofel [16:27] doko: added [16:29] anyone know what it is that creates /dev/loop[0-7] [16:30] it seems that with current precise kernel, we can have up to /dev/loop255 [16:30] (previously that required adding 'max_loop=') [16:31] smoser: /etc/udev/links.conf [16:31] i dont have such a file [16:31] :) [16:31] maybe udev is responding to CONFIG_BLK_DEV_LOOP_MIN_COUNT=8 (kernel config) [16:33] smoser: iirc the loop module does that on its own at load [16:33] its builtin now. so it just must be the kernel adding devices on the initialization of that driver [16:33] and udev responding perhaps ? [16:33] why does udev need to respond? [16:33] and the min being setup by that config. [16:34] broder, your suggesting it doesn't have to do anything because of devtmpfs ? [16:35] my understanding was that device nodes are generally created by the kernel [16:35] (my knowledge is fuzzy here, but prior to devtmpfs i did not think that was the case) [16:35] and then udev is just responsible for figuring out which modules need to be loaded so those modules can go and create the device nodes themselves [16:37] well, prior to devtmpfs, /dev was either a general tmpfs or a "normal(ext3)" filesystem (or devfs) so the kernel wasn't just creating nodes int he filesystem. [16:38] smoser: you can see the loop driver creating the nodes when it initializes: http://lxr.linux.no/linux+v3.2.2/drivers/block/loop.c#L1813 [16:38] i couldn't tell you how exactly it does it, but it definitely does [16:47] cjwatson, quick question, have you seen 11.10 server iso issues when booting from USB stick, it boots but won't find the cdrom drive [16:47] cjwatson, which is a strange since it doesn't have one on this box [16:48] pgraner: can I have logs please? [16:48] cjwatson, sure which ones? [16:49] syslog and partman [16:49] well actually just syslog for this I guess [16:49] cjwatson, ack [16:49] also does precise work? [16:53] cjwatson, haven't tried precise yet, I was installing and they planning on testing the upgrade :( [16:53] cjwatson, ok so I have no network and it won't see USB sticks [16:54] well I need some way to see what's going on [16:54] cjwatson, the error is: cdrom-detect: CD-ROM mount failed: device=/dev/sr0 fstype=iso9660 [16:54] you could try booting the precise installer and walking through the installer up to that point, you don't have to actually do an install [16:54] mm, usually need a screenful of context [16:55] cjwatson, ok I'll snap a pic [16:55] also how did you create the USB stick? [16:55] cjwatson, dd [16:55] ok [16:56] from tty2, run 'list-devices maybe-usb-floppy; list-devices usb-partition' [16:57] cjwatson, both return no output [16:57] well that sucks. does the kernel actually know about any USB devices? [16:58] cjwatson, its sees the keyboard & mouse [16:59] cjwatson, not the usbstick [16:59] cjwatson, email sent with screen shot [16:59] try booting a live CD and see what driver it uses for the USB stick [16:59] er a live USB stick [17:00] the kernel packaging needs to deliver that to the installer in some appropriate udeb [17:00] cjwatson, ok let me get one downloaded and I'll give it a shot [17:02] looking specifically for the ones in usb/host I guess === jincreator1 is now known as jincreator === carif__ is now known as carif-freenode [17:29] cjwatson, ok booted, and it looks like the livecd is using xhci-hcd === kalosaurusrex is now known as albrigha [17:35] pgraner: ok, so I think the right answer is to file a kernel bug asking them to add xhci-hcd to the usb-modules udeb (I checked; it isn't there) [17:36] cjwatson, ack, thanks === dpm_ is now known as dpm === arand_ is now known as arand === rbelem_ is now known as rbelem [17:55] pgraner: what did you have going on w/ usb3? [17:56] jodh: bug 916507 looks like it is similar to bug 849414 [17:56] Error: Launchpad bug 916507 could not be found [17:56] Launchpad bug 849414 in plymouth (Ubuntu Precise) "plymouthd crashed with SIGSEGV in ply_event_loop_process_pending_events()" [High,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/849414 [17:56] pgraner: been seeing a few machines lately when usb3 is set to "auto" mode in the bios, it'll default to usb2, but when set to "enabled" it'll go usb3 === Chipzz_ is now known as Chipzz [18:00] vanhoof, the server iso doesn't have xhci in the usb-modules udeb so you can't install off a usb3 port from usb stick [18:06] pgraner: ah [18:07] pgraner: see if usb3 work for you once installed too [18:07] stgraber: Hiya, Studio wants to create a similar feature in ubiquity, that edubuntu uses. My problem is that I can't find the original source branch, that stores the ubiquity/plugins/*.py files. If you have time at some point, could you point me to the right tracks, please? Thanks! [18:07] pgraner: and if not, see if you have that same bios toggle [18:07] pgraner: been coming up in a few new bugs this week [18:07] Well, Studio as well as Xubuntu. [18:08] astraljava: the package selection stuff is in edubuntu-live [18:09] stgraber: lp:ubuntu/edubuntu-live? I was just told that it gets created on upload. So I don't get where the upload gathers the stuff from. [18:10] astraljava: that's indeed the branch. It's a UDD branch, uploads are automatically commited to it and people with upload rights can also commit changes to it without uploading [18:11] stgraber: Ok, so how would Studio and Xubuntu get similar branches, then? I see that that branch is owned by Ubuntu branches (team?). [18:12] astraljava: http://developer.ubuntu.com/packaging/html/udd-intro.html [18:12] astraljava: for now, just copy the python scripts to your own package, that's the easiest [18:13] stgraber: Ok, thanks! [18:17] vanhoof, will do === kalosaurusrex is now known as albrighqa === albrighqa is now known as albrigha === jdstrand_ is now known as jdstrand === fenris_ is now known as Guest88852 === fenris__ is now known as Guest62166 === kalosaurusrex is now known as albrigha [18:53] cyphermox, hello! are you the patch pilot today? [19:01] arges: I am [19:02] @pilot in === udevbot changed the topic of #ubuntu-devel to: Archive: soft freeze for Alpha 2 | Development of Ubuntu (not support, not app development) | build failures -> http://bit.ly/or6CHJ | #ubuntu for support and general discussion for hardy -> oneiric | #ubuntu-app-devel for app development on Ubuntu | http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment | See #ubuntu-bugs for http://bit.ly/lv8soi | Patch Pilots: cyphermox [19:04] cyphermox, so I think I got almost everything needed for an SRU here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kexec-tools/+bug/828731 . was wondering if you could take a look and see if it looks ok. [19:04] Ubuntu bug 828731 in kexec-tools (Ubuntu Oneiric) "kdump functionality not working as expected when /boot is a separate partition" [Medium,In progress] [19:09] arges: alright [19:10] cyphermox, thanks [19:23] arges: so, comments: [19:24] arges: bug 828731 was needing ubuntu-sru subscribed, I added it. I can't upload kexec-tools though, so I'll have to defer to somebody else to sponsor it, but it looks correct (and has apparently already had testing) [19:24] Launchpad bug 828731 in kexec-tools (Ubuntu Oneiric) "kdump functionality not working as expected when /boot is a separate partition" [Medium,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/828731 [19:25] arges: however, you're also closing bug 785425 in your changelog, so that one too should have ubuntu-sru subscribed, with an SRU rationale, and targetted to the releases [19:25] Launchpad bug 785425 in kexec-tools (Ubuntu) "0_kdump uses dynamic makedumpfile(8) binary, which fails horribly" [Medium,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/785425 [19:25] cyphermox, ok i will check that too. how do I have ubuntu-sru subscribed? [19:26] on the lp page, click subscribe someone else and search for ubuntu-sru [19:26] ok [19:36] bdmurray: thanks for pointing that one out. I'm pretty sure all these plymouth bugs have a common cause. === dduffey is now known as dduffey_afk [20:13] Are ubuntu testing and ubuntu development the same release? [20:15] Atlantic777: yes [20:16] We're testing a milestone of the development release [20:16] So 12.04 is the newest release I can get? [20:16] actually it's not a release until it's released :D [20:17] It is, though you should really only "use" it if you're confortable with things breaking every once in a while [20:17] Atlantic777: unless you want to help with the testing, in which case I'd invite you to join #ubuntu-testing [20:18] cyphermox: I'm interested both in testing and development of new ubuntu stuff... [20:18] you're at the right place. [20:19] if you want to learn how to do it then visit #ubuntu-classroom, this week it's Ubuntu Developer Week and we show how you can fix things [20:20] I'am already there. :) [20:21] sorry, I didn't see ;) === deryck is now known as deryck[lunch] === deryck[lunch] is now known as deryck [21:13] zul, keystoneclient ftbfs [21:13] doko: damn it... [21:14] doko: ill get to it tonight [21:14] zul: disable the argparse check. it's included in python2.7 [21:14] doko: yeah === salem_ is now known as _salem [21:35] SpamapS: That's kind of why I didn't ask the question during the talk also = ) [21:35] simmel: CDBS stands alone, without debhelper, though it can help with debhelper rulesets. The key there is, with debhelper 7, thats not necessary [21:36] cdbs /o\ [21:36] simmel: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debhelper [21:36] simmel: see the 3 line rules file? That is a new thing.. before that, CDBS was the quickest way to be able to have something similar. [21:39] simmel: I have to run now, but I'm sure you'll find lots of people who can help here. :) [21:39] * simmel gets confused with the debhelper.mk in CDBS and actual debhalper. [21:39] SpamapS: Thanks again. [21:40] those small rules usually go by the name dh-7 [21:40] dh7 \o/ [21:41] saying only debhelper is a bit confusing as most of cdbs also calls dh_* stuff [21:41] just all hidden in undocumented black magic [21:42] we should just start calling cdbs 'debhinderer' ;) [21:42] It's not black magic if you know how to use it ; ) [21:44] One other reasons that I'm confused is because https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/Complete mentions CDBS alot and not any mention that it shouldn't be used. [21:45] yes, not distinguishing between best practices and "things you have to deal with if you're going to be an Ubuntu developer" is a major failing of the documentation [21:46] https://wiki.edubuntu.org/PackagingGuide/Python#The_debhelper_way looks preetty good though. [21:47] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide does say to use http://developer.ubuntu.com/packaging/html/ instead [21:48] we should probably nuke /Complete, at this point [21:48] Oh! Is there a Complete/All-pages version of that? Except Show source? [21:49] I'm not sure [21:49] barry: hey, do you know if there's a pdf version of http://developer.ubuntu.com/packaging/html/ ? [21:49] Sorry for beeing lazy here, totally OK to reprimand me, but was debhelper >= 7 available in lucid or earlier or is it a new thing? [21:50] its available in lucid [21:50] cool, thanks jtaylor. [21:50] slangasek: i don't, but it wouldn't be hard to generate, from the trunk branch (`make pdf` should do it). i can check, since i'm updating that branch for the new udd stuff as we speak (i have a session tomorrow) [21:51] I will discuss this with my colleagues tomorrow and see if we can't use the new debhelper way. Also, probably should fix our Hudson buildslaves to use sbuilder instead of pbuilder too = ) [21:51] slangasek: make latexpdf [21:51] barry: Is there a single .html-file available aswell? Or is .txt and .pdf the only single-page versions? [21:53] simmel: it's sphinx so there are several options. bzr branch lp:ubuntu-packaging-guide then run 'make' no options to see what you can generate [21:53] barry: Thanks, I'll check it out tomorrow. Thanks everyone and good night.
