brodereightyeight: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PrecisePangolin/ReleaseSchedule lists kernel freeze as april 5th00:08
smoserslangasek, :-( no.00:36
smoseri'm sorry.00:36
slangaseksmoser: hmm.  are there any tests in particular you'd like us to do before landing it in the archive?00:37
slangasek(ones that we can get done before FF, I hope)00:37

smosercloud-init is generally fairly light on it.  uses mounted event nof '/'.00:47
AaronMTHas there been a security bug filed for seclists.org/fulldisclosure/2012/Feb/25400:48
slangaseksmoser: sure; we're being very cautious this time around, owing to the two previous false starts00:50
slangasekso if you don't think there's anything special we need to test, I can just go ahead with the upload00:51
broderslangasek: thoughts on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sysvinit/+bug/858122/+attachment/2683183/+files/insserv_1.14.0-2.1ubuntu1.unstable.debdiff ? it seems reasonable (modulo needing quilt and changelog adjustments)00:52
ubottuLaunchpad bug 858122 in sysvinit (Ubuntu Precise) "incomplete migration to /run (shutdown script order has been demolished)" [High,Triaged]00:52
broderif it's ok with you i can upload it and prep/upload an oneiric sru00:53

slangasekbroder: YES PLEASE00:55
slangasek<cough>00:55
broderslangasek: haha, ok. any thoughts about attempting to unwind the damage?00:56
slangasekbroder: I think I sketched something out on the bug about manually putting the key bits of /etc/rc{0,6}.d back where they belong if we detect this kind of massive breakage on upgrade00:56
slangasekbroder: we might not get all of it right, but we can at least get the core initscripts stuff00:57
broderok. i'll sketch something up. it'd be nice to have you review it, since complex maintainer scripts are easy to screw up00:57
slangasek:)00:58
mwhudsonwhat could go wrong01:00
slangasekmwhudson: little more than already has done P01:00
slangasek:P01:00
broderlook, i'm absolutely terrified of uploading insserv. that's why i'm forcing slangasek to sign off on anything i do - so i can at least spread the blame :)01:00
smoserslangasek, ok. initial snif done.01:04
slangaseksmoser: thanks :)01:04
smoserno kittens sacrificed. 2 instances booted twice each.01:04
broderslangasek: ok, that actually seemed a little more straightforward than expected. how does http://paste.ubuntu.com/843826/ look to you?01:13
slangasekbroder: I had been thinking in terms of the fix-up being done in initscripts, as the owner of both the scripts in question and the /run transition that's gotten clobbered; are you sure that doing the fixup from insserv will dtrt everywhere?01:15
broderhmm, not really. i hadn't thought about it all that hard01:16
broderi guess i figured that correcting the shutdown sequence from anybody's postinst -> initscripts shutdown script will do the right thing next time you reboot01:16
cjwatsonScottK: bug 634215 - why are all-numeric host names prohibited?  I mean, I get that they might be considered unwise in some contexts, but my reading of RFCs 952 and 1123 in conjunction is that all-numeric host names are permitted, and indeed I think 1123 indicates that host software MUST support them01:17
ubottuLaunchpad bug 634215 in ubiquity (Ubuntu) "ubiquity-kde install allows invalid hostnames" [Wishlist,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/63421501:17
slangasekbroder: two other things: 1) if the runlevel's been broken, you'll see S0{1,2,3}reboot; maybe it's better to check for one of these values instead of just !90, in case the admin had some other reason for renumbering (e.g., having fixed up all their init scripts so insserv actually works for them)?  2) the fix-up needs to handle rc0 in addition to rc601:17
slangasekcjwatson: hmmm, stgraber brought that one up the other day and I asserted that all-numeric is illegal; perhaps I should dig up a real reference :)01:18
slangasekcjwatson: in *practice*, an all-numeric hostname gets butchered by various unix tools, which will helpfully interpret it as a decimal encoding of an IP01:18
broderslangasek: ok. i guess i need to s/reboot/halt/ for rc0, but other than that fix up the same scripts in the same way?01:19
broderslangasek: but if you'd rather have this in initscripts, i'll drop the postinst from insserv and upload it, then we can work on getting initscripts fixed01:19
cjwatsonslangasek: I'm not necessarily opposed to making the installer forbid them, but I feel I'd like to have chapter and verse here :)01:19
cjwatsonespecially since netcfg has the same algorithm01:20
slangasekbroder: yes, s/reboot/halt/ should be the only change... and yeah, I have a slight preference for putting this in initscripts, rather than embedding knowledge of another package's init scripts in the insserv postinst01:20
broderslangasek: i'm fine with that01:20
stgrabercjwatson: from my last RFC reading (last week), there's nothing explicitly prohibiting the use of all-numeric host names, as long as they aren't also used as part of a DNS record (where a DNS label can't be made of all-numeric)01:21
cjwatsonstgraber: where does that restriction come from?01:21
stgrabercjwatson: 1912 IIRC01:22
slangasekcjwatson: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=65041#34 ?01:24
ubottuDebian bug 65041 in libc6 "glibc does not allow numeric hostnames" [Normal,Open]01:24
infinityrfc2181 pretty much throws it all out the window, and only keeps the 63-byte restriction.01:24
infinityBut there's no reason systems can be more restrictive than the RFC (and, in our case, reasons why we need to be).01:25
slangasekwell, gethostbyname() is a deprecated interface, but we either have to modify its behavior or accept that anything using it will be broken with numeric hostnames01:26
cjwatsonah, gotcha01:26
cjwatsonthat's probably enough for me to change netcfg too then01:26
slangasek(also, not sure if the glibc implementations of the ipv6-friendly interfaces actually do a better job with them?)01:27
* infinity figures the summary at the top of http://www.zytrax.com/books/dns/apa/names.html is a fair representation of the pre-2181 rules, and probably not an awful constraint for installers to impose.01:30
infinitycjwatson: ^01:30
ScottKcjwatson: The hostname itself can be all numeric (the machine name), but the top level domain (at least historically can't).  Says so in RFC 1123 paragraph 2.1.01:33
cjwatsonThat point's clear (although the RFC is mainly making an observation about the existing set of TLDs, I think ...), but you aren't entering an FQDN in ubiquity.01:34
broderslangasek: do you have an opinion on whether or not i should also move /usr/sbin/{update-rc.d-insserv,update-bootsystem-insserv}?01:35
ScottKinfinity: I don't see anything in 2181 that changes that.01:35
* slangasek looks at broder blankly01:35
slangasekbroder: not knowing what these are or why they exist, I don't have an opinion :)01:35
ScottKcjwatson: It used to be that all numeric wasn't allowed for the machine name, but that changed, so maybe I was confused.01:35
slangasek"update-rc.d-insserv is an obsolete implementation [...]"01:36
slangasekseems like upstream should move that one to /dev/null01:36
slangasekand the other one is a trivial script we don't need to care about01:36
slangasekbroder: ^^ so I think it's not worth moving them01:36
cjwatsonThe gethostbyname problem is somewhat persuasive.01:36
infinityScottK: We weren't talking about FQDNs until just now...01:36
broderslangasek: ok. sounds good01:36
ScottKOK.01:36
ScottKnever mind me then.01:36
cjwatsonI've mailed debian-boot to ask if anyone cares if I make such a restriction01:45
* infinity remembers the bad old days when various operating systems used to tell him that his domain name was invalid.01:53
cjwatsonYou were just testing them, right?01:54
infinitycjwatson: NT4 had hissy fits about 0c3.net until SP3, I believe.01:56
infinitycjwatson: Which caused me some grief.01:56
broderoh what the heck. why does insserv ftbfs, but only in sbuild02:00
broder...with fopen(file_the_test_suite_just_wrote_out): Operation not permitted02:00
infinitybroder: In your local sbuild, you mean?02:00
broderinfinity: yeah02:00
infinitybroder: Is that running on top of an overlayfs-using schroot?02:00
infinitybroder: If so, that's your answer.02:00
broder...seriously?02:00
broderugh02:01
infinitybroder: The good news is that the buildds won't fail that way. :P02:01
infinitybroder: The bad news is you need to test without overlayfs locally.02:01
broderwait, but why does it not happen if i build it with schroot dpkg-buildpackage, but not using sbuild?02:01
broderoh, i guess that would be hitting one of the bind mounts02:02
broderwhat is overlayfs doing wrong?02:02
infinitybroder: overlayfs plays fast and loose with inodes in ways that can confuse tools that assume that inodes don't (or do) change based on certain actions.02:02
broderoww02:03
infinitybroder: The tools (or, in this case, test suite) are usually wrong, not overlayfs, but...02:03
broderok. since i *can* build it without copying the source into the overlayfs, i'll go ahead and move forward02:04
geofftinfinity: out of curiosity, is there documentation of usual overlayfs issues?02:04
geofftI have a local buildd that I was just about to switch from LVM chroots to overlayfs one of these weekends...02:04
infinitygeofft: Mostly in apw's head, and scattered around to others who've had to deal with it. :P02:04
infinitygeofft: If you have a working LVM setup, I see no compelling reason to switch.02:05
geofftinfinity: "working" is a bit much, it randomly panics during rebuilds every so often02:05
infinitySpecial.02:05
broderalso LVM snapshot-based chroots are borderline unusably slow, especially when there are a lot of them in action02:06
infinityAnyhow, other than "some software makes stupid assumptions about filesystems that it shouldn't" and "overlayfs doesn't support inotify", I can't think of any other known gotchas.02:08
geofft(hm, I'm misremembering, we switched it to aufs IIRC because of the slowness, and aufs brings the panics)02:08
andy753421is it possible to request a sync from a PPA instead of from debian (or maybe not a sync, but something along those lines?)02:35
Davieyandy753421: raise a sponsorship bug and link to the PPA.02:35

broderslangasek: that insserv fix technically needs to be sru'd to lucid through oneiric, right?03:32
brodererr, that's a dumb question that i know the answer to, since i hit the bug after installing vmplayer 4 on natty03:54
pittiGood morning04:40
slangasekbroder: it's beneficial to SRU it to lucid through oneiric, but the most important is oneiric because that's where things go wrong with initscripts... for the other releases, nobody's reported any bugs yet05:07

sorensoren`: ?!?!?05:29
sorensoren`: You're officially freaking me out.05:29
sorenOh! That thing!05:30
broderslangasek: i installed vmplayer 4 on natty before upgrading to oneiric, triggering the bug06:35
slangasekbroder: and the fixed initscripts cleaned it up suitably?06:38
broderslangasek: err, haven't made it that far in testing yet06:39
slangasekok :)06:39
broderat the time, i think i went for the "nuke it from orbit" approach of rm /etc/rc*.d/[SK]* && dpkg --reconfigure --something-clever06:39
pittibroder: --force-confmiss probably?06:45
broderi thikn i just had a complicated one-liner to figure out all the packages that had scripts in /etc/rc*.d and then reconfigure them to run update-rc.d06:45
broderslangasek: whoa!! vmware fixed their installer in 4.0.2!07:04
broderit checks for update-rc.d before insserv now07:04
broderslangasek: anyway, if i run insserv in my precise vm by hand and then install http://paste.ubuntu.com/844050/, it does seem to fixup the symlinks as expected07:08
broderit didn't seem like there was a particular spot in the postinst the code needed to live, so i picked a point a bit above the /run transition code, since it seemed like this should probably be fixed up before then07:09

rickspencer3that's pretty cool07:26
pittirickspencer3: yes, the recent compiz upload broke armel unfortunately :(07:26
pittirickspencer3: otherwise it's holding up pretty well indeed07:27
rickspencer3well, I think it's a great result, especially for the week of feature freeze07:28
pittinot sure whether didrocks has a trick up his sleeve to fix compiz on armel, though07:29
didrockspitti: the issue is in kelibs07:29
didrockskdelibs*07:29
didrocksI ask Riddell to look at it07:29
didrocksrickspencer3: just to be clear, compiz FTBFS on armel is due to kdelibs which ship a broken header, Riddel is already aware about it07:30
rickspencer3thanks for the update didrocks07:30
rickspencer3just to be clear, I wasn't actually complaining, as I don't recall being close to this tight on previous FF days ;)07:31

micahgmvo: is there an easy way for me to check that?08:19
mvomicahg: well, I guess what it comes down to is if there are no po file diffs in the other patches it is fine08:21
micahgmvo: ah, ok, I'll check, thanks08:21
micahgnope, no po diffs, so I can drop it from the source then (I assume it's easy to recreate again)?08:23

didrocksRiddell: hum? I just meant that people using kde are on kwin I guess, not compiz08:30
didrocksRiddell: I'll make it clear in the changelog, no worry :)08:30
Riddelldidrocks: yes you're right.  but if one troll sees it differently it could go down badly08:30
didrocksRiddell: right, will take great care on the changelog ;)08:31

pittiRAOF, Laney: do you have an idea about https://launchpadlibrarian.net/93054472/buildlog_ubuntu-precise-i386.tomboy_1.9.5-1ubuntu2_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz ? it built fine locally08:56
pittiI guess there's a missing build dep which I have installed locally; cli-common-dev ?08:56
* apw wonders how long before the archive might not remove every :i386 package he has installed08:56
pittidid that change recently? the previous tomboy built fine without it08:57
pittiapw: gcc-4.6/i386 still building :/08:57
apwthe compiler causes this mess, we really should build that in a PPA and copy it in if its going to cause utter uninstall every time08:58
pittiapw: we had a lot of similar cases recently (webkit, compiz, glibc, etc.)08:58
apwpitti, i take it that means the compiler triggers a multi-arch missmatch if amd64 and i386 don't hit together08:58
pittiapw: we discussed using precise-proposed for this, so that we have ONE staging area instead of dozens of PPAs, and we can  copy binaries (which is really a main point)08:59
pittiapw: correct08:59
apwpitti, hehe thats funny, thats was my solution too :)08:59
pittiwe just need a LP tweak to allow this08:59
seb128using ppa doesn't work, or we need non virtual ones08:59
seb128but yeah, -proposed would be better08:59
pittigreat, and now the buildds are all firefoxed09:01
apwpitti, i guess one needs to be able to copy your own packages from devel -proposed09:01
apwfor that work work any09:01
pittiapw: yes, but I don't consider that a blocker09:02
pittiinitially we'd only use it for a few packages which are huge and known to cause major damage if they FTBFS or go out of sync09:02
pittisuch as yesterday's mysql, or glibc, or webkit09:02
apwpitti, yeah that is a reasonable plan indeed if its optional like that09:03
bdrungpitti: vlc will build on powerpc once the final 2.0.0 is released.09:03

bdrungpitti: no. can you grab 2.0.0+git20120215+r81-0~r28~oneiric1  from https://launchpad.net/~videolan/+archive/stable-daily and try to build that on powerpc?09:05
pittibdrung: that's more effort/responsibility than I'm willing to take09:06
pittiI don't care AT ALL about powerpc, just about getting rid of the NBS dependencies :)09:06
pitti(in fact, I think we should have killed it long ago, but *shrug*)09:06

frafuHi, We released Onboard 0.97.0 yesterday and it has been accepted as onboard 0.97.0-0ubuntu1 into Ubuntu main. Shortly afterwards, a bug with translations appeared, we already fixed it in trunk and are going to release 0.97.1 today. My question: Are micro releases (i.e.:  0.97.1-0ubuntu1) accepted in feature freeze or should I rather submit it as patch creating onboard 0.97.0-0ubuntu2?10:49
micahgfrafu: bug fix only releases aren't a problem generally10:50
micahgwell, at least at this point10:50
SpamapSThey're really not a problem up until beta10:56
SpamapSreally, beta210:56
=== Guest18047 is now known as zumbi
frafumicahg, SpamapS : So bugfix micro release updates are accepted until beta2. These were the pieces of information I was looking for. Thanks to both of you.11:01
SpamapSfrafu: its not a hard and fast rule.. but generally yes, fixing bugs up until the betas are out is a good idea11:04
SpamapSfrafu: after beta2 .. its up to the release team11:04
frafuSpamapS: Maybe a few more words to the procedure to get it accepted until beta2: I should file a bug containing a debian source package based on the new micro release and add the Ubuntu Sponsor Team to the bug; correct?11:10
SpamapSfrafu: correct. Make sure you reference upstream bug comments/commits/etc.11:11
geserthe procedure should be the same as before FF (perhaps just mention in the bug that it's a bugfix release and adds no new features)11:12
* SpamapS wills the PHP test suite to pass, so he can sleep11:12

SpamapSIt would take a lot to convince me that 5.4.0 will have less regressions than 5.3.1011:28
* ajmitch should keep 5.4 merged in his PPA11:28
SpamapSI fully expect we will ship 5.4 in 12.1011:29

SpamapSmicahg: and the Ubuntu delta was my own, which was applied in Debian. :)11:46

infinitymicahg: *stare*11:50
tmusSpamapS, perfect... I know of a few minor issues with it - already resolved locally - and communicated upstream. Will it simply be re-sync'ed later on or do I need to file bugs and patches for the ubuntu version as well?11:50
micahg:D11:50
* micahg is actually surprised at the lack of feature freeze uploads11:51
* micahg will upload aptitude when he wakes up11:51
ogra_must be the LTS-nature of this release11:51
SpamapSYeah we're actually trying not to break this one  ;)11:52
SpamapStmus: You will need to use requestsync if things are fixed in Debian11:52
SpamapStmus: auto-syncing will resume after precise is released11:53
tmusSpamapS, okay, cool - I'll make sure things are fixed in debian11:53

cjwatsonI read that discussion, and he said to try a PPA package which should fix it.  I tried it and it didn't.  That's why I'm mentioning it to him13:27

valavanisalexHi All, I'm planing an update of the Inkscape package to the latest upstream version (the Debian maintainer is inactive).  My issue is that the Debian package uses the now-obsolete dpatch system, and this is giving me a lintian error (not warning).  Do I just ignore the error, or should I convert the package to using quilt?13:32
cjwatsonIt's best not to do major packaging rearrangements as Ubuntu deltas, on the whole13:33
cjwatsonThe purpose of the Lintian error is to encourage Debian maintainers to stop using dpatch13:33
cjwatsonAt this point it's not a big deal for Ubuntu, except in that we'd generally like to reduce the breadth of alternatives in our packaging tools; but not urgent, anyway13:34
valavanisalexGreat, thanks for the explanation.  I'll just update the upstream component of the package then, and leave the patch system alone.13:35

mdeslaurslangasek: ok, so I have to get rid of $DPKG_MAINTSCRIPT_ARCH in the flash packages then. So...would having the rules file sed a "postinst.in" file with $DEB_BUILD_ARCH be the right way?15:48
slangasekmdeslaur: oh bah.  well, it should be DEB_HOST_ARCH15:49
apwcjwatson, would you be able to upload that puppy15:51
mdeslaurslangasek: why DEB_HOST_ARCH vs DEB_BUILD_ARCH?15:51
apw(and thanks for reviewing)15:51
slangasekmdeslaur: because of the definitions of host and build in the C standards :)15:51
cjwatsonmdeslaur: DEB_BUILD_ARCH is the architecture you're building the source package on; DEB_HOST_ARCH is the architecture you're building for.  They differ in the case of cross-compiling15:51
slangasekmdeslaur: host is always the arch that the code is hosted on; while it's unlikely anyone will ever need to cross-build a flash package, we should still use the right variable15:51

didrocksdoko: rmadison tells that 5.2.0-0ubuntu5 is published now16:46
dokodidrocks, no, this is when you assume features are implemented in Debian, but not in Launchpad, and not working around these16:47
didrocksdoko: do you prefer I don't break on older version and let people upgrade at a bad time?16:47
didrocksso that they start with the new compiz and unity fail to load?16:47
seb128doko, when the compiz abi change unity needs a rebuild, without rebuild it will not start ... what is your issue with the way it's handled?16:51
dokowell, removing unity will make the system unusable as well?16:51
seb128well, it's an apt bug16:51
seb128it should put compiz on hold16:51
seb128not remove unity16:51
cjwatsonIWBNI somebody could encapsulate this situation in an apt integration test case16:51
cjwatsonthey're not that hard to write if you can work out what exact dependency relationships trigger it16:52
seb128cjwatson, do you have any documentation on how to do that? or an example?16:52
didrockscjwatson: maybe I can give it a try (will probably need guidance from where to look at), but will be after UIF16:52
seb128I can have a look (not this week though)16:52
didrocksor seb128 can :)16:52
seb128cjwatson,it's not really a "bug", I guess compiz scores high since it got rdepends and unity lower since it doesn't16:53
seb128the way to fix that would be to upload to proposed and pocket copy as it was discussed at UDS I guess16:54
didrocksyeah, we definitively should do that, will be way easier16:54

slangasekif you have sysv-rc installed, you have insserv installed; but there are still alternatives to it in the Debian archive, such as file-rc18:35
broderslangasek: there's a comment in update-rc.d: "[...] upgraded systems might keep the legacy ordering until the sysadm choose to migrate to the new ordering method"18:35
broderwhich makes me think that debian intends to support running without switching to insserv for an arbitrary period of time18:35
slangasekoh, yes, you can have insserv installed but not active18:36
broderi'm assuming that the shibboleth-sp2 bug would be reproducible on debian if you deactivated insserv, because update-rc.d looks completely self-contained and is identical between debian and ubuntu18:37

EtienneGquick question about isc-dhcp (slangasek, perhaps?): I see we are on 4.1.1 in precise, while Debian unstable is on 4.2.2.  Are we staying on 4.1.x in the LTS to benefit from 4.1 being an "ESV"?  (http://www.isc.org/software/dhcp/versions)20:33
EtienneGESV == Extended Supported Version, in ISC parlance20:33
slangasekEtienneG: I don't believe it was an explicit decision; we're on 4.1.1 because that's the latest version in Debian testing20:34
slangasekand for the LTS we sync from testing, not unstable20:34
EtienneGslangasek, fair enough.  Someone pointed out to me that we where "behind" in term of isc-dhcp, but I guess it make most sense to stick to the ISV "ESV" release20:35

stgraberslangasek: I only had a quick look at the isc-dhcp version, but 4.1 looked good because of ESV and it wasn't clear what would be the benefit of 4.2 (except for the nightmare of getting it to build + apparmor + ...)20:37
Davieystgraber: untouched.20:37
slangasekstgraber: ok20:37
stgraberDaviey: will you have it done for 12.04?20:38
Davieystgraber: i hope so, but the whole team are currently cooking way over capacity20:38
Davieywhich means the best i can say is 'maybe', not a commitment at this stage20:38
slangasekbladernr_: hi, can we talk about bug #933723?20:39
ubottuLaunchpad bug 933723 in resolvconf (Ubuntu) "resolvconf creating bogus resolv.conf file" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/93372320:39
stgraberDaviey: ok, should I still the work item then?20:39
stgraberDaviey: *steal20:39
bladernr_slangasek:  sure20:39
slangasekbladernr_: do you see this 127.0.0.1/example.org somewhere under /run/resolvconf?20:39
slangasekif so, what file / can you pastebin it for me20:40
Davieystgraber: If you did, you'd earn beer tokens20:43
bladernr_slangasek:  http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/844946/20:45
bladernr_looks like it's actually pulled in interface/lo.named20:45
bladernr_:/20:45
bladernr_hrmmm20:45
slangasekbladernr_: right, so you've got bind9 installed and running and hooking itself into resolvconf20:45
slangaseknot a resolvconf bug ;)20:45
bladernr_apparently so...20:46
slangasekbut I think by default, bind9 is supposed to *not* do resolvconf20:46
bladernr_and about as soon as I started catting files in run I realized that20:46
bladernr_hehe20:46
bladernr_that's good then... that means perhaps this is easily solvable on our end... just gotta figure out why bind is being installed20:46
bladernr_slangasek:  sorry to alarm you :)20:47
slangasekbladernr_: n/p - is it actually breaking name resolution, btw?20:47
slangasekI think the bug should probably be reassigned to bind920:47
=== chrisccoulson_ is now known as chrisccoulson
bladernr_well, we don't actually USE bind20:48
bladernr_I'm not sure why it's being installed20:48
slangasekbecause if bind9's not working as a local resolver out of the box, the default value for the bind9/run-resolvconf template should be fixed20:48
bladernr_ugh... thi smeans there like 50+ machines in the lab all running their own nameservers20:48
bladernr_oh, well yes20:48
bladernr_to answer THAT question...20:48
slangaseknothing so wrong with running a caching-only nameserver as long as it works ;)20:49
bladernr_BUT, we're not configuring bind, so that may not really be a problem with bind iether20:49
slangasekbladernr_: so hostname resolution *is* broken?20:50
bladernr_well... define broken... as I said, bind is being installed but we're not actually configuring or doing anythihng with it.20:51
slangasekI'm asking you if host lookups work20:51
bladernr_that being said, we get NO resolution with the resolvconf including 127.0.0.120:51
bladernr_no20:51
slangasekok20:51
slangasekthen bind9 is broken out of the box and mustn't hook into resolvconf by default20:52
bladernr_so as soon as I purged bind9, resolv.conf was re-written and now includes the working nameserver line from eth020:52
bladernr_also...20:52
broderbladernr_, slangasek: err, i've used bind9 as a local resolver out of box20:52
broderis this a policy-rc.d-at-install-time interaction?20:52
slangasekbladernr_: are there firewalls blocking bind from forwarding DNS requests to arbitrary DNS servers on the internets?20:53
slangasekbroder: no, because bind9 *only* hooks into resolvconf *from* its init script :)20:53
broderslangasek: ok, good. that's what i suspected, but didn't have the code in front of me yet20:53
bladernr_slangasek:  you have now exhausted my DNS vocabulary and ability :(20:53
slangasekbladernr_: is there a firewall ;)20:54
bladernr_we have no firewalls on the machines...20:54
bladernr_:)20:54
bladernr_heh20:54
slangasekbladernr_: bind9 *should* work without further configuration; however, it will fail to do so if it can't actually reach port 53 on the public internet20:54
slangasekbladernr_: yes, but is there a fw for the lab as a whole20:54
bladernr_yeah, just thought about that...20:55
bladernr_because we're pointing servers to the satellite as the nameserver, that could well be the case then.20:55
bladernr_sorry for being dense20:55
barryRiddell, ScottK: any thoughts on these build failures?  they don't fail for me locally.  build skew perhaps?  https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/telepathy-qt4/0.9.0+repack-0ubuntu221:19
jtaylorbarry: in -packaging a django dev wants to talk about django 1.4 in precise, you had some uploads of it maybe you want to speak to him21:23
Riddellbarry: I added test coverage cos mterry demanded it to feel warm and fuzzy, it works for me locally too but it seems to need an LD_LIBRARY_PATH set to keep it happy in soyuz21:23
RiddellI can look at it tomorrow or feel free to fix it21:24
barryvirtualenv 1.7.1 was just released.  i'm thinking about upgrading our 1.7-1 to it.  any objections21:24
Riddellit's cdbs which I seem to have lost the nack of a bit21:24
mterryRiddell, it's cold in Massachusetts!  Tests keep me warm21:24
Riddellyeah you need something to keep your CPUs busy to keep the room temperature up I get you21:25
barryRiddell: i can take a look.  if you don't see an upload fixing it today, you'll know i failed miserably :)21:25
Riddellthanks barry21:25
chrisccoulsonmterry, it seems like you should try building webkit. that would definitely keep you nice and warm21:29
chrisccoulsonask seb128 about that, he's our webkit expert now ;)21:29
mterrychrisccoulson, no way.  I'm worried if I bring it up, he'll be like "you like webkit?  it's yours"21:29

stgraberkirkland: new pastebinit for you ;) enjoy!21:41
kirklandstgraber: cheers mate21:45
kirklandstgraber: one question for you...21:45
stgraberkirkland: sure21:46
kirklandstgraber: do you publish ppa builds of pastebinit for older ubuntu releases?21:46
kirklandstgraber: ie, i always simultaneously push my projects (bikeshed included) to a ppa for all supported ubuntu releases21:46
kirklandstgraber: and some of my users track those21:46
kirklandstgraber: so someone who's running, 10.04, say, that's tracking my bikeshed ppa21:46
kirklandstgraber: will update tomorrow, and actually lose pbput/pbget21:47
stgraberkirkland: nope, I usually release once a year or every two years, never bothered setting up a PPA for it ;) (I do for most of my other projects though)21:47
stgraberkirkland: I guess pastebinit would be interesting to backport though if there's interest21:47
kirklandstgraber: okay, i'll push a copy of pastebinit sources to the ppa:bikeshed/ppa21:47
=== dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates
kirklandstgraber: yeah, if you had one already in a ppa, I'd just pocket copy it21:47
stgraberkirkland: ok, sounds good, make sure you remove the dh_python2 stuff though as it won't work on lucid21:47
micahgkirkland: stgraber: pastebinit seems like a good candidate for backports21:47
kirklandstgraber: if not, I'll just upload21:47
kirklandstgraber: nah, i'll just set my ppa's builds to backports ;-)21:48
stgraberkirkland: won't work, dh_python2 isn't even in lucid backports ;)21:48
kirklandstgraber: oh21:48
kirklandstgraber: shucks21:48
stgrabermicahg: yep, I'm really surprised nobody did it already, I guess people are happy with the default pastebin and don't need the new stuff :)21:49

dobeybarry: ping; why does python-dbus depend on python-dbus-dev?22:10
barrydobey: from the control file:22:12
barry# Depends on python-dbus-dev for backwards compatibility, until packages22:12
barry# are fixed to depend on that directly22:12
barry 22:12
dobeyboo.22:13
barrydobey: could you file a bug here: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?package=dbus-python22:14
dobeyi guess i should just run reportbug or something. that web page is confusing22:15
barryreportbug -B debian i think does it (but i have to look at the manpage every time)22:16
dobeyi guess i have to tell it that it doesn't have direct internet access or something. eh, i don't really feel like dealing with configuring a bug reporting tool to be able to report a bug, right now :-/22:20
cjwatsonor just use the mail interface, takes a few minutes to learn :)22:21
cjwatsonsubmit@bugs.debian.org with body "Package: dbus-python" / "Version: ITS-VERSION-NUMBER" / blank line / your report22:22
* dobey prefers apport22:22

andy753421Is there a naming convention that I should follow for having the a package for different ubuntu versions in a ppa?23:53
andy753421I'm thinking something like mypackage_0.7-1ppa1.11.10.dsc and mypackage_0.7-1ppa1.12.04.dsc or something?23:53
infinityandy753421: If you want 0.7-1 to be higher, then you want 0.7-1~ppa...23:55
infinityandy753421: But tacking the release version on the end is a reasonable way to keep them in a sane order, sure.23:55
