[00:00] but I feel that the experience has gotten less smooth, but probably more safe [00:00] well, all things considered, I'd rather we leave the needle there for this release [00:01] agreed [00:01] I think its worth release noting though as my experience was more surprising [00:02] true [00:02] I thought it used to boot degraded which didn't happen to me [00:02] SpamapS: can you open a release notes task for this? [00:03] oh, booting in degraded mode shouldn't have changed :/ [00:03] bdmurray: bug #? [00:05] I was looking at bug 925280 [00:05] Launchpad bug 925280 in mdadm (Ubuntu) "Software RAID fails to rebuild after testing degraded cold boot" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/925280 [00:05] hmm, that doesn't say anything about getting a busy box shell though [00:09] bdmurray: the default is to not boot degraded.. and that has been the default since, IIRC, Jaunty [00:09] bdmurray: its a High priority question in the installer, so you should get a question and have the option to boot degraded [00:11] bdmurray: the error message explains that you need to zero the superblock [00:11] bdmurray: the code that introduced that change is new, coming with the latest mdadm (3.2.x) .. [00:12] bdmurray: its being extra careful because there is a superblock on that device that is not consistent with the array that is active. [00:13] Ahh, I wish I had found this bug 6 hours ago. :) [00:13] Launchpad bug 6 in Launchpad itself ""next 10 entries" at bottom of page" [Medium,Invalid] https://launchpad.net/bugs/6 [00:17] heh === dendrobates is now known as dendro-afk [00:30] skaet: if we're going to allow for some rebuild, any chance someone can review the ldm in the queue? it's not critical but it'd be nice to have in Edubuntu if we rebuild [00:32] stgraber, if you can line up a reviewer - ok. we'll fall back to the current image set as backups if there's any issues. [00:32] stgraber, bug #? [00:34] skaet: When using LTSP, it's possible unity 3D will start on a client that's not 3D capable, in such case, make sure to select "Ubuntu 2D" in the session list at login time. (820417) [00:35] that's what I put in the technical overview [00:35] thanks. stgraber, [00:36] oh, right, sync requests don't have diffs on LP, let me build one quickly then... [00:36] stgraber: if it's from testing, you can request it ‎with +localpackagediffs [00:37] micahg: that's still in unstable at the moment (released upstream only a few days ago [00:38] http://paste.ubuntu.com/862747/ is the debdiff for ldm. As mentioned earlier, the new background won't affect Ubuntu as we ship ours in ldm-ubuntu-theme (always installed with LTSP) [00:40] ldm-2.2.6/rc.d/X50-dmrc-processing is the bit I care about the most, mostly the change from the broken TryExec to Exec and the logic for parsing LDM_SESSION that actually works now (.dmrc reading/writting in LDM has been broken for years ...) [04:49] dupondje: set to "in progress", thanks [04:49] Good morning [05:00] pitti: I discovered if we demote the packagekit andpackagekit-backend-aptcc binaries, we can demote gdebi, is this desirable? [05:00] micahg: we don't actually want -aptcc indeed; the apt backend works slightly better, but I don't know if that also needs gdebi [05:01] pitti: the aptcc backend depends on gdebi-core [05:01] the apt one doesn't seem to [05:02] hm, I'm not even sure why it is in main [05:02] there only seem to be alternative dependencies to it [05:03] we need the source in main for the library, though [05:03] right [05:03] micahg: let me try to demote these two binaries and see what happens in c-m [05:03] sounds good [05:41] pitti: I forgot about packagekit-dbg, needs to be demoted as well [05:41] doing [06:40] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apport/+bug/943661 could somebody check this with quite high priority ? :) Quite annoying you can't use ubuntu-bug/apport-bug atm :) [06:40] Launchpad bug 943661 in apport (Ubuntu) "apport-gtk crashed with SIGSEGV in get_gsubgpos_table()" [Medium,New] [06:48] micahg: http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/component-mismatches.txt [06:48] micahg: hm, "rescued from packagekit", sounds like extra-include; I'll try sorting this out in the seeds [06:48] pitti: ah, right, *-dbg :) [06:49] micahg: ok, seeds committed, let's wait for the next round [06:51] pitti: thanks [07:13] pitti: the reverse recommends has the alternate on python-aptdaemon.pkcompat [07:17] micahg: ah, I think we need to swap that [07:18] why should it matter, it's a recommends? [07:24] component-mismatches checks these as well, as we install them by default [07:27] right, but if the first alternative is in universe (i.e. not available), why wouldn't it just install the alternative? [07:29] it violates policy for depends, but AFAIK doesn't for recommends [07:29] micahg: well, britney just isn't clever enough for this [07:30] but anyway, usually you have universe enabled, so it should really prefer what we want users to install [07:30] unless they explicitly choose PK [07:30] so I think it's not just a c-m workaround to swap it [07:30] pitti: well, that'll give us a diff on packagekit, but I guess that's worth a source in universe at least for the LTS [07:31] pitti: should I take care of that after beta 1? [07:32] micahg: that'd be appreciated [07:32] ok, will do [07:33] micahg: perhaps we can talk Matthias into using ${daemon-Recommends} and setting that accordingly depending on dpkg-vendor --is ubuntu [07:34] pitti: I'll ask next time I see him online [07:40] dupondje: fun, can reproduce === smb` is now known as smb [07:58] pitti: good :) [08:01] dupondje: in fact, in gdb this reproduces the other weird bug 901675, so plusgood [08:01] Launchpad bug 901675 in apport (Ubuntu) "apport-gtk assert failure: python: ../../src/xcb_io.c:273: poll_for_event: Assertion `!xcb_xlib_threads_sequence_lost' failed."

I see it in the grub.cfg, but not in the grub menu. [11:31] Any hints for debugging? [11:31] Does grub directly go and read /boot/grub/grub.cfg? [11:31] and how does it know which partition to look at? [11:31] Is that set at grub-install time?

I want to set build dependency for Inkscape so that it can be built against either liblcms1-dev or liblcms2-dev. Should I use an alternative dependency format "liblcms1-dev | liblcms2-dev" or should I use the virtual package "liblcms-dev"? === dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates [14:11] jamesh, slangasek do you know what the status of upstart is in Debian as far as they accepting upstart scripts in packages is concerned only (not making it default or anything like that) [14:11] janimo`: It's up to the package maintainer. [14:11] the former if settled, would be enough to eliminate a few deltas [14:12] ScottK, http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=577040 I was pointed at this bug [14:12] Debian bug 577040 in debhelper "dh_installinit: don't force upstart when both .init and .upstart exist."

Should I use an alternative dependency format "liblcms1-dev | liblcms2-dev" or should I use the virtual package "liblcms-dev"? [14:39] valavanisalex: you'll probably want the alternate dependency rather than using the virtual package [14:40] ScottK, anhy further comment re upstart scripts in Debian? [14:41] No. It really depends on the maintainer. AFAIK there's no policy. [14:41] ScottK, but does it not cause such breakage as the (admittedly one year old) bug describes? [14:42] the last comment there (hi soren) makes it sound serious [14:42] It's clear upstart scripts can be put in Debian without causing harm. [14:43] someone who knows more about this than me should update that bug then :) [14:44] there's no need for policy, but if there are bugs like this maintainers with no experience with upstart may simply avoid adding upstart scripts.
