[00:01] hud sure spews a lot of errors and warnings [00:01] think those are all subsequent to the crash though [00:07] interesting; elmo's stacktrace does not match the one upstream === malkauns_ is now known as malkauns [00:17] if someone can help, i *just now* uploaded a cloudinit at http://paste.ubuntu.com/861292/ [00:17] it fixes 2 bugs that i'd like to have fixed in beta1 [00:17] but i am willing to have someone say "no, not important enough" or "no, too late". [00:19] jdstrand: ping [00:23] * smoser is out. if anyone can ACK that though, i'd appreciate it. but otherwise, it can just land the other side of beta. [00:34] Hi, I wonder how long it takes for a package in Debian testing ( http://qa.debian.org/developer.php?packages=libbpp-core ) reach ubuntu ( https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libbpp-core ) ? Does it require a manual operation ? [00:35] dachary: It depends on the time of the Ubuntu cycle. [00:36] RAOF: at this time does it require a manual intervention ? [00:36] dachary: At *this* point in the cycle (after DebianImportFreeze) it's manual. Also, we're after FeatureFreeze, so if the package introduces a new feature it needs justification. [00:36] it's not about https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates just yet, I guess ;-) [00:36] oh [00:37] Finally, we're currently in BetaFreeze, so there's basically no chance until the Beta is released. [00:37] that's not true for packages in universe/multiverse [00:38] broder: I should have mentionned these packages are in universe. The rule is different there ? [00:38] as long as they're not on an image, beta freeze mostly doesn't apply (they have to be approved, but it's virtually automatic) [00:38] but FF and DIF are still relevant [00:40] There are a few new features in this set of bioinformatics packages http://biopp.univ-montp2.fr/wiki/index.php/Packaging [00:40] broder: does that mean they will be rejected even if they are in universe ? [00:42] I would like to make sure I'm not missing an opportunity to have them in the next ubuntu release. But if the rules say it can't, they will have to be obeyed ;-) === bladernr_ is now known as bladernr_afk [00:42] dachary: it means that you have to manually request the sync (because it's post-DIF), and get a FeatureFreezeException approved (because it's post-FF), and that if the sync was sponsored right now, it would be held for approval (due to BF), but that it would with high certainty get waved through the beta freeze queue [00:43] broder: that's hopefull :-) [00:50] border thanks for the help. I'll proceed with https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SyncRequestProcess and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FreezeExceptionProcess [01:06] elmo, thanks again for your help. I've been in contact with Intel and it's marked as a priority issue for investigation with them. [01:15] smoser: please use #ubuntu-release for such questions rather than relying on someone to catch it in scrollback on #ubuntu-devel... :) === rsalveti` is now known as rsalveti [06:04] Good morning [06:05] iulian: you can upload stuff at any time; during the freeze it'll be caught in unapproved, and you should poke in #ubuntu-release to get it through quickly; but yes, ghc seems fine now [06:07] I think that was discussed on Friday and it was decided that after beta 1 would be easiest [06:14] ok [06:14] well, I guess I can use the buildds to do some rebuilds for bug 875466 [06:14] Launchpad bug 875466 in libxt (Ubuntu Precise) "Lots of packages shipping with broken md5sums" [Medium,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/875466 [06:26] hi together [06:26] a small question about creating patches [06:27] in a project there is a patch named "01_no-shipped-init-script.patch" [06:28] which uses debian/$PROJECT.init.debian to be copied [06:28] now I am building an upstart patch [06:29] that sounds overly complicated [06:29] so this patch is no longer neccesary... [06:29] Is it advisable to kill this 01_patch alltogether? [06:29] a patch that creates debian/project.init.d ? [06:29] no [06:29] it is more funny [06:30] -- [06:30] larsduesing: it's a little vague, but just build the package and see what comes out of it [06:30] 01_no-shipped-init-script.patch:- @echo "Installing Debian-style init.d" [06:30] 01_no-shipped-init-script.patch:- @mkdir -p ${DESTDIR}${diretc}init.d [06:30] 01_no-shipped-init-script.patch:- @cp doc/${PROJECT}.init.debian ${DESTDIR}${diretc}init.d/${PROJECT} [06:30] 01_no-shipped-init-script.patch:+# @echo "Installing Debian-style init.d" [06:30] 01_no-shipped-init-script.patch:+# @mkdir -p ${DESTDIR}${diretc}init.d [06:30] 01_no-shipped-init-script.patch:+# @cp doc/${PROJECT}.init.debian ${DESTDIR}${diretc}init.d/${PROJECT} [06:30] --- [06:30] larsduesing: in general, if you just have debian/project.upstart, dh_installinit will do the right thing [06:30] it is even commented out... :) [06:31] larsduesing: no, the patch comments it out, i. e. disables it [06:31] so you need to keep that [06:31] ah... yes [06:31] as you still don't want the init script [06:31] i saw this NOW... sorry [06:31] :) [06:31] yes, it's about Makefile [06:32] sorry [06:37] sorry, another question... [06:37] in ubuntu i cannot use dch --nmu --close bug#, correct? [06:37] (it querries the debian bug-database...) [06:44] larsduesing: I think you can, but (a) we don't have NMUs (because we don't have maintainers), and (b) --close will add a closes tag for the BTS, rather than Launchpad; that's probably not what you're after. [06:45] good morning/evening all [06:45] hey rickspencer3 [06:45] pitti, Daviey what's the word on the street for beta1? looking good? [06:45] rickspencer3: no catastrophes that I could see, anyway [06:45] * rickspencer3 eyes precice_probs and smoke tests [06:46] pitti, good to hear ... it's nice to see the archive and smoke tests are in good shape [06:46] rickspencer3: ISO tracker for ubuntu images has just one red bug, which is a xubuntu bug and already fixed; it seems it just got mis-placed [06:47] rickspencer3: precise_probs has that long-standing problem of the new armadaxp kernel, but it's not really user-visible [06:47] rickspencer3: openjdk will be fixed once it finishes building on arm* [06:49] rickspencer3: upgrades are a bit unstable unfortunately, bug 927993 [06:49] Launchpad bug 927993 in apt (Ubuntu Precise) "distribution upgrade from lucid to precise failed with : package dpkg is already installed and configured" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/927993 [06:53] @pilot in === udevbot changed the topic of #ubuntu-devel to: Precise Beta-1 Freeze in effect.

[07:20] (this patch is to be given to ubuntu-sponsors [07:23] larsduesing: just delete the file [07:23] we don't patch files in debian/ [07:25] ok, so a patch for sponsors should be a normal diff?

[07:25] yes, ideally a debdiff between the current package and your new one [07:25] i. e. debdiff foo_current.dsc foo_new.dsc [07:25] ok [07:26] but in new should be a changelog-entry? [07:26] yes, of course; any change you need to make [07:26] ok [07:27] thanks [07:49] good morning [07:50] pitti, nothing like a few rebuilds in the morning, right? :) [07:50] dholbach: yeah, felt like the buildds needed to produce some heat :) [07:50] they were getting bored and crummy [07:54] can somebody please reject https://code.launchpad.net/~maxolasersquad/ubuntu/precise/stellarium/add_quicklist/+merge/94312?

[08:01] Launchpad bug 223825 in aiccu (Ubuntu) "aiccu init.d script will race dhclient (upstart issue?)" [Undecided,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/223825 [08:16] larsduesing: yes, but "in progress" seems appropriate as there is a patch now and you are workign on it? [08:16] pitti: patch is completed... (and working since more than half a year in my ppa) [08:17] so what type is to be set? [08:17] *sorry* I'm rather new to all this :( [08:17] larsduesing: ah, sponsors are subscribed already [08:17] larsduesing: that's pretty much it then [08:18] sponsors and sru [08:18] ok [08:18] larsduesing: btw, no need to remove debian/aiccu.init.d [08:18] thanks for your help [08:18] larsduesing: instead, you should call dh_installinit with --upstart-only [08:18] (smaller diff) [08:19] so I should put a new diff? [08:19] larsduesing: hang on, you don't even need --upstart-only; if .upstart exists, that will be used [08:19] larsduesing: would make it easier for sponsors, yes (and you can do another final test build) [08:20] but the init.d is the source of that bug [08:20] (I did a build - but interestingly on updating /etc/init.d/aiccu WON'T be deleted :( ) [08:22] larsduesing: yes, but that's not because you removed debian/init.d [08:22] larsduesing: the init script is a dpkg-managed configuration file, and you need to remove it manually in maintainer scripts [08:22] larsduesing: see man dpkg-maintscript-helper [08:22] arghs, so I have to edit these, too? [08:23] larsduesing: if you don't feel up to this, please mention it in the bug, so that the sponsor can add the necessary bis [08:23] bits === tkamppeter_ is now known as tkamppeter === smb` is now known as smb [08:23] I'm able, but I'm learning still [08:23] (and if I do it not myself, I will never learn...) [08:24] larsduesing: no, it's actually enough to add a debian/aiccu.maintscript with something like "rm_conffile /etc/init.d/aiccu 20070115-14.1" [08:24] larsduesing: the dpkg-maintscript-helper manpage explains the problem with conffiles, and how to remove them on upgrade [08:24] ok [08:24] fortunately it's relatively easy to do this these days with .maintscript [08:25] there is no debian/*.maintscript [08:25] only .postrm [08:26] (and pre*/post*.debhelper) [08:26] yes, you need to create it [08:26] ok [08:26] *reading* [08:26] :) [08:26] thanks pitti [08:26] larsduesing: kein Problem :) [08:26] *g* [08:32] pitti - so I should leave the buggy init.d-script in place? [08:32] larsduesing: yes, it won't be installed if there is an .upstart script as well (see man dh_installinit) [08:32] ok [08:32] that reduces the delta with debian [08:32] i. e. the packaging difference [08:32] yes [08:32] I understand [08:36] still one question - should I update debian/control Standads-Version: 3.9.1 to 3.9.2 ? [08:36] lintian mentions it... [08:36] No. [08:36] Not unless you're planning to take over upstream maintenance too. [08:36] ok [08:37] larsduesing: that'd be unnecessarily diverging from Debian, indeed, so we leave it [08:38] Also, rm_conffile surely isn't enough in this case, you'd also want an update-rc.d remove? [08:38] Or you leave a mess of dangling symlinks. [08:38] oh [08:38] that's right... [08:39] so somewhere put an "update-rc.d aiccu disable"? [08:40] larsduesing: Not disable, remove. [08:40] ah, yes... [08:40] sure [08:42] infinity: aiccu.postinst.debhelper DOES that [08:42] # Automatically added by dh_installinit [08:42] update-rc.d -f aiccu remove >/dev/null || exit $? [08:43] isn't that just on "remove", not on "upgrade"? [08:44] "aiccu.postinst.debhelper" [08:45] I read that, do that after installing [08:45] larsduesing: righht, but this line is usually surrounded by if [ "$1" = "purge" ] [08:45] I'd actually be shocked if it's there at all after dh_installinit switches to installing an upstart script instead. [08:45] (Have you made that change yet?) [08:47] pitti: no dependencies for that line [08:47] nice, magic [08:47] so perhaps dh_installinit is clever enough to do that by itself then [08:47] uh, are you guys sure? it makes perfect sense for dh_installinit to cleanup the rc*.d symlinks if you start shipping an upstart job [08:47] I HATE magic, esp. if I don't understand it [08:47] broder: yes, it does, but I wasn't aware that it does that by itself [08:48] broder: I don't think it makes sense at all for it to universally have that in every upstart-using package (and I'm betting it doesn't). [08:48] so, I'll try an update.. let's see [08:48] :) [08:48] looks like it adds it unless you specify --upstart-only [08:49] err, wait, and unless some other things [08:49] so that was probably added so that maintainers don't have to add the same snippet over and over again [08:50] I suppose. But then they'll be there "forever". I guess it doesn't hurt, unless the user adds their own init script with the same name, assuming some silly maintainer script that doesn't own the file won't mess with them. [08:51] * infinity shrugs. [08:51] infinity: remove only removes symlinks if the script doesn't exist [08:51] True. [08:51] So, it's just a lot of unnecessary noops. [08:52] Good thing it's Perl instead of Python, so it doesn't take 5 seconds to run and do nothing? ;) [08:52] hmm [08:52] I am running into problems... [08:52] *checking again* [08:53] nothing had been deleted [08:53] *checking* [08:55] arghs [08:56] in postinst there is an "exit 0" - and dh_installinit is in the last lines [08:57] (and I enterered nothing in the config, therefore I ran into the exit 0) [09:01] with correct settings it is ok [09:01] thanks [09:01] so, I'll publish new patch [09:02] thanks infinity and pitti (and sorry for so many newbie-questions and -errors... :) ) [09:03] larsduesing: np; conffile handling isn't exactly a newbie topic [09:04] I learned a bunch of new things... mission accomplished :) [09:12] dholbach: guten morgen, how are you?

[16:16] pitti, the stacktrace given by apport seems inconsistent and I'm not sure what I can trust or not [16:17] pitti, in bug 924416, stack trace top is at "drop_block (bq=0xfd6170, q=0x7fede800f440) at pulsecore/memblockq.c:180" [16:17] Launchpad bug 924416 in pulseaudio (Ubuntu) "pulseaudio crashed with SIGABRT in drop_block()" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/924416 [16:18] pitti, it says that q=0x7fede800f440 when the function was called. However, at line "pulsecore/memblockq.c:18" is "pa_assert(q)" [16:18] pitti, which should succeed if q is non-zero. [16:19] pulsecore/memblockq.c:180 [16:22] pitti, so how should I go about this? [16:22] hm, I'm as baffled as you; sometimes optimization plays dirty tricks, but SIGABRT very much does sound like an assert failure [16:22] * pitti downloads and looks at source [16:24] diwic: hm, it doesn't show the value of bq, is there any chance that it really hits the next assertion, pa_assert(bq->n_blocks >= 1); ? [16:25] diwic: is pa_assert() even active, i. e. do we not build with NDEBUG? [16:25] pitti, I'm pretty certain pa_assert() is active [16:26] pitti, but what technique would I use to verify? I assume gdb is involved somehow :-) [16:28] diwic: at this point it'd be good to get a core dump === Ursinha` is now known as Ursinha === dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk [16:29] pitti, can we get one from launchpad or is it forever lost?

[16:32] diwic: Eric says he gets it a few times a day; perhaps he can attach the .crash report the next time it happens, then we'll have it for closer inspection [16:33] diwic: oh, I had expected ~/.xsession-errors [16:35] pitti, good idea. that would be in /var/crash/apport something?

Thanks! [16:40] diwic: thanks; sorry that I cannot be more helpful [16:41] pitti, both you and apport is already very helpful, so don't feel bad about it :-) [16:50] Hi all!

Either way.. lets just fail the same way. === Guest40451 is now known as zumbi [17:39] SpamapS: By "not enough disks", you mean "no disks", which is equavalent to "no array at all", which may well be about the same as GET_ARRAY_INFO returning a failure. [17:40] SpamapS: Looks more like just covering their bases for all the different "vaguely undefined" ways that an array can not exist. [17:41] SpamapS: (I do like that the check accepts the possibility that there may be a negative number of disks, though) [17:52] infinity: I'm fairly certain that in this case the ioctl is complaining because the array is degraded.. but I really have no good way to prove that. :-P [17:54] SpamapS: GET_ARRAY_INFO should return info on a valid array, surely. [17:54] SpamapS: Even a degraded one. [17:55] infinity: in that case, it should have set the number of disks to 1, not 0 [17:55] You'd think. [17:55] Unless the array just plain doesn't exist from mdadm's POV. === lifeless_ is now known as lifeless [17:56] its also possible the disc.major != 0 or the disc.minor != 0 [17:56] thats in another part of the code [17:56] * SpamapS is writing a tiny version of mdadm's ioctls to determine that right now. :p [17:56] would be nice if the program actually reported *why* it can't re-add this disk === bladernr_ is now known as bladernr_afk [19:21] mvo: so I was unable to recreate bug 659438 do you have any other ideas on how to test it?

I have subscribed you to the bug now. Please provide any further information through the bug report, especially whether "sudo aa-complain cupsd" eliminates your problem completely. [23:24] tkamppeter: that also removes apparmor protection from the cups daemon and is not recommended [23:24] it's seems fair enough to run once to see if that workaround a bug to know if the bug is due to restrictions [23:25] micahg, I ask the users only for doing this to determine whether their printing got really blocked by AppArmor. I do not consider the bug fixed when it works with aa-complain. [23:25] sure [23:25] tkamppeter: ok, but I didn't see that note :) [23:43] slangasek: opinion sought.. mdadm has added some checks that prevent one from re-hot-adding out of sync former-members of a RAID array without zeroing the superblock.. [23:44] slangasek: I have a feeling this is unintended consequences of some other check... [23:45] slangasek: 1) how much do we care (at worst, this means people will always have to do a full sync instead of a catch up), and b) if we care, do we push back to Debian or ??? [23:46] er, I think all my information about mdadm is out of date. what's the difference between a full sync and a catch-up, here? [23:46] I mean, doesn't mdadm just know that they're out of sync, and has no choice but to overwrite? [23:52] slangasek: yes, so this may be a kernel issue too. [23:52] slangasek: mdadm tells the kernel to re-add a disk to an array [23:53] slangasek: in the past that was fine. but in this case, mdadm looks at the disk and says "no, its no good for adding, please zero the superblock" [23:53] right [23:53] slangasek: I'm more looking for how much we care about this, because the debugging effort will be brutal. [23:53] slangasek: in the new case.. it seems mdadm is being more careful, so I'm ok with it. [23:53] we care about mdadm working smoothly [23:54] but I'm deathly afraid of touching that code at all this cycle [23:56] slangasek: the scenario that has bothered me for a while is where I break a mirror temporarily, and the put the disk back in. I've always felt md should re-sync that, but it never seems to [23:56] well [23:56] in past cycles, you would have counted yourself fortunate to have it just fail to resync [23:57] because we have had some data corruption bugs related to hot remove/add [23:57] Yeah, I think its more careful now [23:57] so I wouldn't recommend trying to address this without coordinating with upstream+Debian [23:59] I'm not really looking to touch it at all
